God of War, Zhao Yun
Episode 44
Fine,
then let Zi Long finish
your mission to restore the glories of the Han Dynasty
Good. Very good.
My Lord, even though Yi De is guarding our rear
We still have to act fast and head to Jiangdong
You Highness, please.
What is it? Are you injured?
General Gao.
Today, when I departed with General Xia Hou, it was swift at first.
But we encountered Zhao Yun when we reached Changban slope
You met Zhao Yun? What happened after that?
I wanted to just take him down with one swipe.
General Xia Hou was eager to take the prize of killing Zhao Yun for himself and went first
In the end he was killed by Zhao Yun in one blow.
-Thankfully I- -Xia Hou En
That is His Highness' great general.
If Zhao Yun killed Xia Hou Wen, then isn't the Qing Gang sword his now?
I came back quickly to maneuver the troops.
I'm not sure about what happened afterwards either.
Damn it!
Do you know how mighty that Qing Gang sword is!?
If it is taken by Zhao Yun, then we'll have more troubles.
That's right.
General Gao, I still have something to report.
Hurry up and say it.
On my way back to the camp, I met Miss Qing Yi by accident.
Qing Yi went onto the battleground?
Was she injured?
Seems like she wasn't hurt, but I was far away from her.
I was injured, so I just quickly returned to the camp and didn't go over.
But the weird thing is
He had kidnapped Gong Sun Bao Yue and headed to the south
Qing Yi would do that?
Gong Sun Bao Yue was a close confidant at Zhao Zi Long's side
Could it be...
The world is in a mess. Even the Gods who are supposed to protect the world
are in danger themselves.
Xia Hou Qing Yi, what are you grieving over by yourself?
I was a highborn, the formal Princess of Youzhou
I'm presentable but you've bound me like I'm a sausage. Does that make sense?
Sister, sorry to treat you so poorly.
I am eager to meet Zi Long
because I want to reveal the truth of things
But he's using the excuse of being too busy with military affairs to avoid me
This is the only way I could come up with.
Do you really think that Zi Long will come if you use my life to threaten him?
What if he is not going to save me?
No, I will take back my worries.
Zi Long has feelings for me, he will definitely come to save me will all his might.
But... Shuang Er is really clumsy.
what if he fell in a ditch and broke his leg
and is not able to find Zi Long to save me, then won't I be dead for sure?
Xia Hou Qing Yi, I won't interfere if you become crazy. However, you shouldn't involve me in this!
Hurry up and let me go! Let me go!
Save me! Save me!
Shut up. Stop screaming, will you?
Aren't you getting thirsty from screaming? I will get you something to drink.
There's no need to. You better use the water
to pour it on your face and regain your consciousness.
Qing Yi, I used to think
that you are a smart girl who is able to differentiate between right and wrong.
Why have you become so unreasonable?
Why would you suspect the person you once loved so dearly?
I used to think that the misunderstanding between you two
Altough the situation is unclear, just think.
You turned the person you love so much into the person you hate bitterly.
Don't you feel unhappy?
If it actually is a misunderstanding or not, I want to hear Zi Long say it himself.
If he really was the one who killed my parents-
Not possible, Zi Long is a righteous person.
He is definitely a good man.
But you...I would never believe that you would rely on Cao Cao
and work with the bandits
Then you tell me,
when the world is this messy, who is the right person to rely on?
In a chaotic world, which idiot wouldn't find a beneficial path for themselves?
Who else can completely trust he'll be there for the civilians?
Human interaction is similar.
Even if you spent time with that person day and night,
it doesn't mean that you will be able to understand him.
Probably even until the moment you die,
you won't be able to clearly differentiate between good and bad people.
Understanding someone is not achieved by looking with your eyes,
but by feeling it with your heart.
Even though the time I've spent with Zi Long hasn't been long,
I dare bet that he definitely is a good person.
If this bet stands, I sincerely hope that you will emerge the winner
The times I've spent with Zi Long... I was really happy.
I would often think about a future with Zi Long.
I easily thought about forever.
However forever is something out of reach.
Throughout that process, there are too many changes. The political situation changes
and people also change.
It's not Zi Long who has changed.
It's you who is not willing to believe it.
If Zi Long has actually changed or the reason why he changed, I don't want to guess any these.
I'm insisting on meeting Zi Long because I want to find out the truth.
This way, I can decide
whether I will love him unconditionally or hate him.
There are great generals in the front, and there are Cao troops behind. Retreat is difficult.
The people who suffer the most are the civilians who follow us.
Giddy up! Giddy up!
Yi De!
Big brother!
Yi De, how is the situation ahead?
If Third brother is here, Elder Brother has no need to worry.
Not only did I defeat Cao Cao's army, I've also destroyed the bridge
If that Cao crook still pursues,
he must learn how to swim!
You-
Yi De, tell me, am I supposed to scold you or praise you?
Big brother, why is that?
He means that
originally you used strength to destroy Cao's army
and caused them to be afraid so they wouldn't come in but you destroyed the bridge
making them think that you're army isn't strong enough and that you're scared of them attacking
Aiya, I've made a mistake again.
Whatever, whatever!
Cao's army will rush back soon so we can't waste time.
We need to avoid Cao's army.
We have to cross the river immediately.
Stop.
Report. There is a pair of men on horses from th southeast coming.
It must be Cao's troops.
Your Highness has no need to worry. I will face them.
Okay.
Go!
Stop.
You've worked hard, General Zi Long.
Mr. Zhu Ge?
Quickly take me to see His Highness.
Yes.
I already figured Your Highness would be pursued by Cao troops.
You will not be coming from Jiangling, but from Hanjin
The eldest Young Master Liu Qi is already here for reinforcement
Your Highness can immediately mobilize troops.
You are indeed very smart and calculating.
However there are a lot of people who must cross this river.
It'll cost a lot of time.
What if Cao's army-- -You do not need to worry.
I have commanded Guan Yu to station himself at the crossroad to intercept the enemy forces chasing after you
We will join forces soon after
Okay,
in that case, Zi Long!
Yi De!
You two prepare the horses and get ready to bring the civilians over the river.
- Yes. - Yes.
Everyone get up! Get up!
Get ready to cross the river!
Hurry, hurry, hurry!
Everyone get up!
Get up!
Isn't that Shuang Er?
General Zhao, please stay!
Shuang Er, why did you come here?
I don't have time to explain. Please hurry and save our Miss!
What happened to Princess?
My Miss is being threatened by Xia Hou Qing Yi.
What? Qing Yi?
She demands you to come immediately. Otherwise, she'll kill Miss!
Zi Long. There was such matter?
Your Highness, she and I had affections.
I cannot turn a blind eye on this.
Then let's do it like that. Feel free to go.
After your have handled the matter, meet me again.
Alright. Thank you Your Highness.
Go!
In truth, you have already planned to turn Zhao Zi Long into an enemy.
Right?
Someone told me that this is the evidence that you paid Do Jue Xing.
Who told you this?
Who was the one who said something like this to you?
Once you speak one lie,
you must hide it with ten more lies.
Seems like you still don't want to tell me the truth.
- Then I will ask Zhao Zi Long. - You can't go!
Zhao Yun is a part of the enemy. It is too dangerous for you to go now!
Gao Ze.
After my father passed away, you were the closest person by me.
I don't want to suspect you.
That's why you shouldn't stop me.
As soon as it's proven that you weren't lying,
I will kill Zhao Zi Long and take revenge for my father.
Once I've done that, I will be able to marry you without any worries
Qing Yi.
Since you are forcing me like this,
I have to make a decision in advance.
To begin with, Zhao Zi Long was not easy to deal with.
Moreover, he owns the Qing Gang Sword.
Is the Prime Minister in the tent?
Prime Minister is off discussing military affairs with his advisers
He's not here
I'm here to take the sword on the Prime Minister's orders
I have an oral command from the Prime Minister. Stand aside!
If you're really sent by the Prime Minister,
how would you not know that he's actually here?
- Qing Yi! - Don't come over!
Stop saying that you're too busy to answer me.
I will only ask you one thing.
Zi Long, Qing Yi has become insane!
Why did you kill my father?
What? Your father died?
You killed him, but you dare doing it but not admitting it?
I don't have anything I don't dare to admit.
Your father was killed by his own people.
Not only did I not finish him, I've informed the city guards to save him
You're lying!
Zhao Zi Long, stop trying to evade the real question
What killed my father was the sword wound through his heart
What did you say?
Tell me, what hatred is between you and my fatehr?
Why did you have to kill him before Li Quan's grave?
I've never taken the initiative to make an appointment with your dad.
Your father was the one who planned an ambush
and attacked me from behind.
How would my father know where Li Quan's tomb was?
Master was killed by Gao Ze.
It was also Gao Ze who sent for people to bury him.
Gao Ze admitted everything himself.
So... it was Gao Ze who caused the death of my father.
Then tell me. Why did my father hate you so much?
Our hatred must be told starting with my father.
Back then, your father obeyed Dong Zhuo
and sought to take the Qing Gang sword from my father's hands.
It led to the death of my parents.
After many years, he desired the military strategy book in my hands.
Not only did he utilize our affections to take me from Youhou to Chenshang,
but he utilized Gao Ze to investigate
and murdered my martial master.
My father... he- How could this be?
With regards to you, Xia Hou Jie
might have been a good father who cherished his daughter.
His greed puts him and I at opposite ends
In the same way, Gao Ze is also two-faced.
Think about it. While he, together with your dad, dealt with me
you can't guarantee the fact that he might have turned his back on your dad and framed him.
Gao Ze...
I really didn't think
he would be a passive and pretending person.
If I could confirm-
What exactly do you want to confirm?
Qing Yi.
Isn't it fine to make him your enemy who killed your father?
Why do you have to excavate the truth?
Gao Ze, tell me the truth.
That's right, Xia Hou Jie died by my hands.
You've already obtained the truth.
Now you can be satisfied, can't you?
I want you to pay with your life!
Qing Yi!
Zi Long!
- Qing Yi! - Qing Yi!
Qing Yi!
- Qing Yi! - Qing Yi!
Take care of her.
Qing Yi! Qing Yi!
The battle at Dang Yang not only cost us heavy losses
we've also lost Liu Bei, together with Qingtian and Yitian sword
If the gods are toying with me, I will defy them!
- Cao Hong! - Here!
I'm ordering you to bring troops and pursue the two swords!
Yes!
Zhao Zi Long. Being able to be your enemy
is the happiest thing in my life!
Now I won't run away anymore!
I will put an end to our feud here!
It's you who stole my lover!
It's you who forced me to kill Xia Hou Jie!
It's you who killed Qing Yi! Pay with your life!
Once you enter the bamboo forest, your long spear will become a metal scrap!
That's the reason I led you here!
As said in Yue Yi's hundred ways of war, the winning side is the side with kindness and loyalty in their hearts
This is not a duel between you and me,
but a duel between humanity and evil.
Gao Ze, you've lost.
Really?
Did I lose?
Your father was a great respectable general.
His whole life was lived virtuously.
Think about your behaviour.
If he knew about this in the netherworld,
would he be proud or would he be pained?
If a man wants to get his family in order, he must first get himself in order
If a man wants to get himself in order, he must first get his mind in order
If a man wants to get his mind in order, he must first get his intentions in order
- Ze Er. - Father.
Ze Er, this jade pendant heirloom
has been passed down generations of the Gao family.
Now I'm passing it on to you.
Gao Feng Zheng Ze [will be explained later]
Indeed. i particularly engraved four characters onto this pendant.
The words Gao Feng is to remind you that you must hold yourself to a high standard
The words Zheng Ze are to remind you that you have to walk your talk
to live a moral life.
This meaning is embedded in it now.
I hope that you'll inherit the virtuous example set by the Gao family
Yes.
[ Son's ring ]
Qing Yi!
Zi Long.
Gao Ze he... was he put to death?
Qing Yi, you're going to be fine. Let's go.
I will carry you down the mountain.
Having you by my side is already enough.
I don't want to waste the time I have left.
Qing Yi, don't give up!
Let's go.
Zi Long.
It seems like I've returned to the Valley of Death.
The time we've depended on each other to survive.
We have once promised each other
to be a couple and live a life of heavenly bliss
I'm really sorry. I'm afraid I have to leave earlier than you.
That wish won't be fulfilled.
Qing Yi, it's alright. You will get better.
Zi Long.
It's my own fault that I ended up like this. Did you know?
The happiest thing in this life
was meeting you, falling in love with you.
Yet the thing I regret most is
that at the last stage of my life
I actually bore a bitter hatred for you once.
It was me who was wrong. I didn't take care of you well enough.
But I'm thankful
that I finally got to see the truth before my life ends
And made me find my way back to the you I love deeply.
Zi Long, being able to return into your embrace,
even if I die, I won't have any regrets.
Qing Yi, no! Perserve a little bit!
We will go down the mountain! Until you get better,
we will never part again!
Zi Long.
Can you promise me one thing?
If I die,
please don't bury me underneath the dark soil.
I want to become the dust that flies in the sky
and watch you from high up.
I know
you cherish me. You will promise me.
Qing Yi.
Qing Yi!

♫ Love and hatred will both slowly fade away. ♫
This time, I don't care what you do, but you cannot let Gao Ze die.
Your Highness...
In all these years, I've ended the ambitions of Lu Bu, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao's clan
Who still dares to disrespect me?
Gao Ze... dared to lose the nation's weapon
in the middle of the battle. This time I want him to personally tell me
Who is behind him?
Retreating from Xinye to this place, w're endured so much hardship in our travels
If not for your accurate predictions
we would not have made it here safely
Your Highness has Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun among generals.
Forward, rear, flank
You can face th Cao army, no need to fret.
Although my three brothers are valiant
Cao Cao's army is getting bigger and bigger.
Even though we've crossed the Yangtze river, it's definitely not our long term plan
If we can form an alliance with Sun Quan from Dong Wu
Cao Cao will not be able to make his move easily
Exactly
Sun Quan is a powerful lord at Jiangdong
Compared to him, we're really thin on forces. I'm worried that he wouldn't agree to this
My Lord, if you can let me meet Sun Quan
I am confident that I can persuade him to work with you
Okay
My Lord!
Zi Long, you have returned. You've took care of all the matters?
Yes. I've just returned to Jiangxia
and rushed here at once to see you and Councilor
Looks like Zi Long has put an end to something that really troubled him
He's in such high spirits
I have indeed gained a lot
Yi Tian sword?
This has to be god's will. Yi Tian and Qing Gang
are the two divine objects of protection of the Han Dynasty
They should belong to you, my Lord. Since you've entrusted me
with the Qing Gang sword
Now I shall return the favour by bringing you Yi Tian sword as well
That's great
These two swords are national treasures
I will keep them safe. When we've accomplished our mission,
I will return them to our ancestral shrine.
Your Highness!
Lu Su, the adviser from Jiangdong, wishes to see you
He seems to be coming for the funeral of General Liu Biao
- Alright, let the guest wait in the great hall
Yes my Lord
When Sun Ce passed away, nobody from Xiangyang attended his funeral
Now that Liu Biao has died
why did Lu Su come at this moment?
You mean...
My Lord, you have just fought a battle with Cao Cao
He must have come to find out about our plans
Isn't it disrespectful to not meet our guest?
You will see him, My Lord
If Lu Su asks anything, direct him to me
Councillor, will you not go with me?
My Lord, you should meet him first
Oh yes, Yan Cheng
Are you and Zi Long satisfied with your rooms?
Yes, very. Fei Yan can even cook on occasions
Do I have the honour of giving it a taste?
Of course
My Lord, if Lu Su wants to see me
Let your men bring him to Zi Long's lodging
Zi Long, Yan Cheng, am I welcome?
Of course. It's my honour.
I'm a foodie. Fei Yan, I heard that you are excellent at cooking
There are not so impressive. I hope you'll enjoy them nonetheless
Enjoy your meal. I'll go fetch some wine.
It's such bliss to have such delicious food in the military
Zi Long, you have to take the initiative to invite me next time
As long as you're willing to trouble yourself to come all the way here
I will inform you when Fei Yan decides to cook
Thank you
Councillor, I have some doubts regarding an issue
Go on.
Councillor, since you have avoided seeing Lu Su,
why did you give the order to bring him here if he asks?
Zi Long, it's not my real intention to avoid Lu Su
He's up to no good this time
If we let him see too much too soon
it'll leave the impression that we're easy to deal with
Oh, I know!
We have to let Lu Su know that even though we've just arrived, we can't be pushed around
The guest will arrive soon
Zi Long, we will treat him with respect on the surface
but there's something I need you do to in secret
When he comes
give him a good scare and make sure that he remembers you for good
I understand.
Go!
Master Lu, here we are.
- This is the one?- Yes
I'll go in on my own to save you the trouble.
Yes
There's something else
or I should say a mission that I wish you can carry out
What is it?
I might require you
to disguise yourself in a mission to Guiyang
Councillor, what mission would require a disguise?
Don't worry, we're talk about it another time
I am Zhu Ge Kong Ming. You must be Master Lu
Your fame is widespread. Zi Jing (Lu Su's honorific name) is here to visit you
You're most welcome
If you don't mid
we can have a casual meal together
- That's really courteous of you- This way please
Fei Yan, the guest has come. Bring a bowl and a pair of chopsticks
Here
Master, enjoy your meal
