The Legend Of Qin {Episode 44}
The Xiang Clan took over the city of Kuai Ji by itself
and therefore had the capital to foment a rebellion.
Xiang Liang designated himself as the Governor of Kuai Ji, and appointed Xiang Yu as the Deputy General.
Using Kuai Ji as the base,
they attacked and conquered territories in its vicinity.
They were winning all their battles and appeared invincible during that period.
Then eight thousand soldiers from the East side of Yangtze River crossed the water and advanced westward
to battle the Qin elite army Zhang Han troops.
Their action motivated all the other rebel groups.
People like Chen Ying, Ching Bu, and Pu Jiang Jung all came to join their army.
Very soon, the Xiang clan's forces multiplied to over 700,000.
As it watched its growing military force,
Anxious for victory, Xiang Liang decided to split its forces in its advancement
so that he could conquer more territory within a short period of time.
Xiang Liang ordered Xiang Yu to attack Xian City.
However he unexpectedly experienced a strong challenge here.
Xian City committed all its effort to defend its city and would not consider surrender.
It took Xiang Yu several days to occupy the city.
Both sides had many casualties.
Come, careful.
Come, slowly.
Come, careful.
Come.
Let's go.
Come, let's go.
Come.
Slowly.
This battle today was very difficult.
Do you hope that all the future battles won't be like this?
Okay.
Then kill all the prisoners of war.
This is to send the message to others with the blood of the force that resists you.
You have to tell the others that fighting against you,
will only lead to death.
Only this way, will no one dare to fight against you anymore!
The tragedy today will then not be repeated.
Do you feel like there haven't been enough deaths?
It was very difficult for those prisoners of war to survive!
They've already put down their weapons and surrendered!
Shao Yu.
You were the one who chose the path to rise to the top.
From history until now, who has not risen to the top
by standing on a pile of bones?
If you cannot let go of this kind of useless mercy,
You,
will forever be a servant.
What are you waiting for? Give the order.
Give the order.
Give the order!
Pass my order.
Kill them all!
Yes!
Kill!
General Xiang!
Don't follow him.
Let him calm down alone.
Let's go.
Let's meet up with the main troop.
Xiao Yu! I finally found you!
Tian Ming?
I heard that you led your troops to Xian City.
So I hurried over to find you!
I didn't think that I'd run into you here!
Why are you here?
I came to help you!
Several months ago, Uncle Liu Ji, or no, Sir Pei.
He also initiated the rebellion in Pei County.
After discussing, we decided to help you all!
My uncle also approved of this decision.
-Really? -Of course!
From now on, us brothers will fight together and forge the world!
Good! This is great!
From now on, let's forge the world together!
Right! Brothers hearts as one, everything will work out!
If Fu Su was still alive, would he help me?
If my Uncle knew you came,
he'd definitely be very happy!
Come! Let's go back and drink wine!
Okay!
Could you notify General Xiang that Liu Bang of Pei County has come to join him.
Please wait a moment.

Xiao Zhuang?
You didn't die?
This is great!
Your legs-!
It's because at Mechanism City-?
Stop acting
and putting on a caring face.
That is so phony to the extreme.
If you really cared for him,
the day Mechanism City was destroyed,
you wouldn't just have cared about escaping alive.
You say "This is great!",
but I'm afraid that you aren't happy that he didn't die,
but that his legs are crippled!
There is no one to match you, Ge Nie, anymore!
Enough!
I'm tired.
Let's go in.
Teacher!
Mr. Ge, Sir Liu, has your travel been smooth?
Smooth, very smooth.
In these few years, you've become ever the more greater.
You are exaggerating.
That's right. Have all the brothers been settled?
If you need anything, just let me know.
We are all family. Please do not be too gracious.
Okay.
Then I'll take you in now.
Please.
Yue Er.
Yue Er!
Her head hurt the whole way.
Let her sleep first.
Talk to her tomorrow.
Why is she still like this?
She's never improved.
Just what illness is this?
Why hasn't she been healed after so long?
It's Zhao Gao.
He activated the Jade Scepter power in Yue Er's body.
This power is slowly swallowing her life.
Now we can only sustain her life with the Huen Yuan Pearl from Da Si Ling.
But it can only keep her life for a maximum for three years.
T-three years?
Isn't Sister Rong a divine doctor?
She can't do anything either?
Sister Rong says medicine can't fix this.
I only hope that I can find a way to save Yue Er within three years.
Let's go.
Xiao Zhuang.
What did you come for?
Xiao Zhuang.
There are some words I'd like to say to you alone.
There is nothing he needs to talk with you about!
Chi Lian.
Let's go out and take a walk.
Sect Leader!
Chi Lian. You can stay.
Just say what you want.
If you want to kill me, you can move now.
Xiao Zhuang,
you know I won't kill you.
I suddenly discovered you are still alive today.
I am really very happy.
Do you dare to say that you don't hate me?
Why should I hate you?
While walking this path, my friends are decreasing.
Why should we still hold grudges between us?
You have also said you live a carefree life.
You don't care about any titles or ranks.
Why are you fighting now for the world?
It's because I have less friends,
that I must throw myself into this messed up world.
If I can save someone, I will.
I don't want to have no one to talk to when I grow old.
You all know that this chaotic world is a big whirlpool,
but each of you still can't wait to jump into the middle of it.
I stand on the shore, and watch each of you get pulled in.
Each of you disappearing.
I've really seen enough.
Since I cannot persuade you,
why not jump in with you all?
At least on the road to hell, I have someone to accompany me.
Don't you think so?
Xiao Zhuang,
let's make up.
We will have to work together to overthrow Qin.
We can't stay this hostile to each other forever.
I understand.
The things between us cannot be easily fixed.
My sincere words, to your ears, may seem absolutely phony.
But I am still very happy, because you are still alive.
It is also because I can tell you all the thoughts and feelings in my heart.
Since you are not willing to believe it,
I hope that you can think about my words.
So?
Just what did Ge Nie say?
Why?
Why has Ge Nie still not disappeared from my heart?
I can't kick him out no matter what I do!
He doesn't disappear,
because...you've never let go of him.
Impossible!
My heart has the world in it!
I've never even bothered to look at one Ge Nie!
I know you won't admit it.
If you dare to admit it, perhaps, you won't be in so much pain.
Who do you think you are?
You don't need to interfere in my matters!
Who am I?
I am the person who knows you best in this world!
Because from childhood on, my eyes, my heart,
only had you in them!
Stop talking.
When you lost your legs,
to be honest,
I was actually a little happy.
Because I felt, that this man I loved,
this man that has been so distant from me,
could finally stay by my side in peace.
Stop talking!
But I never thought!
That you became even more unsure of yourself!
Even more obsessed with proving yourself!
Why don't you understand?
In my heart, you don't need to prove anything!
You are everything in my world!
Go! Go out, go out!
In fact, all your ambitious plans are just an excuse.
You just want to prove you can win over Ge Nie.
It's just a shame. You can never fulfill this wish.
Because Ge Nie doesn't even care!
If a person doesn't have the heart to compete with you,
how can you let him admit loss to you?
I want you to leave!
Leave!
How embarrassing.
Who are you talking about?
Who else can I talk about?
He already said all that.
But you still want to kiss up without shame.
I don't need you to care about it!
I am fully willing!
Fully willing?
I think you are just slighting yourself.
Do you feel better now?
I don't need you to pity me!
Are you blind? Walking without your eyes!
The person walking without their eyes is you!
You-!
What are you doing?
There are some words that originally I shouldn't say.
But since I ran into you, I'll say a bit extra.
Just now...you heard it all?
You were so loud just now.
It would be difficult for me not to hear even if I didn't want to.
Eavesdropping on other's conversation is so shameless.
Your eyes are muddled yet you refuse to listen to reason.
Are you not going to stop until your head bleeds from getting hit?
Okay. Even if you want to be that way,
But remember this.
Please do not drag down those who really care for you.
Shut up!
Stubbornly following one path will only harm yourself and others.
Think about it yourself.
Who do you all think you are?
You don't need to care about my matters!
To legitimately grab people's hearts,
Xiang Liang accepted the recommendation from his advisor Fan Zeng
to support Xuong Huai's grandson, Xuong Xin as the new Cu Emperor,
and entitled himself as Xu Xing Jun.
And then, he decided to split his soldiers again.
He led soldiers himself to attack Huoyang.
At the same time, Shao Yu and Liu Bang attacked Chengyang.
The splitting of soldiers is a big matter this time.
I will go west with General Xiang.
You should go with Shao Yu to Chengyang.
What?
You're chasing me away?
During these days, you purposely hid from me,
treating me as if I am invisible. I have tolerated all these.
But you want to chase me away?
Does even my presence at your side make you feel terrible?
I only spoke honestly!
I like you. Is that wrong?
I don't believe that in so many years, you knew nothing about my feelings!
This is an order!

What did he say now?
He sent me to go fight with Shao Yu.
Oh?
That's great.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Let's leave and never have a ties with him again.
I can leave. But you cannot!
You must stay by his side to take care of him in my place!
Until now, you still cannot let go of him?
Right.
I cannot let go of him.
Whether you think I am slighting myself,
You can even say that I have no respect for myself.
I just cannot do it.
Do you still treat me as a big sister?
We grew up together.
I've always treated you as my own little brother.
I've never begged you for anything.
This time, pretend like I'm begging you!
Just stay by his side, to take care of him for me. Okay?
What are you waiting for?
If you have the skill, just kill me!
I'll only ask you one thing!
Why must you repeatedly forsake her?
Speak!
Stop it!
If you continue to disrespect our Sect Leader, I will cut off your hands.
He treats you like this.
Do you think it's worth it?
Come outside with me.
Until when are you going to make a fuss?
Can't you have some respect with me?
You still have respect?
Doing all this, it's just for you!
If you really are doing things for my good,
then swear in front of me. From today on, you cannot hurt him again.
You must always stay by his side to take care of him for me.
♫ I refuse to believe. Why must life give me such a fate, ♫
♫ Forcing us to part ways ♫
♫ as soon as we meet? ♫
Okay.
I promise you.
I swear. I will use my everything to protect him.
I won't let anyone to hurt a hair on his head.
Are you satisfied?
♫ If he wants to discuss success, let him leave that to the scoffing of the world. ♫
There will be one day that you will regret this!
♫ How can I continue on living alone? ♫
Uncle wants me to bring soldiers to attack Chenyang.
We'll start out tomorrow morning.
Okay!
I'll bring some Mohist disciples to go with you and fight a beautiful war!
Brothers with a united heart, everything will work out!
Let's fight the battle and build our achievement together.
What is it?
Nothing.
I'm just thinking if Yue Er should go along or stay behind.
Of course she should come with us.
But her body...I'm afraid it won't be good for her.
How about this? Let's go ask her.
Let her decide if she wants to go or not.
-Okay. -Let's go.
Yue Er!
Yue Er! What's wrong?
What happened, Yue Er?
You passed out just now, did you know?
I am fine. I just got up too hastily.
My head was a bit dizzy.
I'll be fine after some rest.
I heard that you are splitting up the soldiers.
Yes. Uncle wants me to bring soldiers to attack Chenyang.
Then you must be going with him?
Then I'm going too.
In a bit, help me pack things, okay?
-Yue Er. -I stayed to be with you longer.
Where you go, I'll go as well.
Okay. I'll help you pack.
Right now with Yue Er's condition, we cannot let her travel far.
Teacher.
I want to ask you something.
You are still so cautious around me? Speak.
I want you to persuade Sister Rong to come back
and to take Yue Er to Jing Lake to recuperate.
I know this is difficult.
But I really have no other choice with Yue Er's current condition.
It's not like you don't know Sister Rong's personality.
Besides you, no one else can persuade her.
I'll do my best.
Giving you three pouches, represents
that you can ask me for three wishes.
No matter when or where,
I will agree to it with no strings attached. It will be done that day.
I'm so tired.
I have no strength to keep going.
I'll ask you one more time.
Are you going to stay,
or leave with me?
I'm not a good man.
Leaving me, is the best choice.
What did you call me here for?
Give this to her.
No matter what you method you use, you must bring her back.
Isn't that the pouch?
But that's true.
If you go see her, she definitely won't give you face.
But if I go look for her,
she'll definitely give me full face!
Is that right?
Don't worry, leave it to me.
-My Lord. -What has happened?
Here are the petitions today to impeach my Lord.
There are more than yesterday.
The lords that gave these requests, a majority of them are,
Adviser Li Si's people.
That's fine. Since Li Si wants to impeach me,
then we should let him do it without reservation.
Send all the petitions to the emperor's rooms.
These, and these too! Send them all to the emperor!
-But my Lord-! -Hurry up!
Yes, yes.
These, these, and these!
-Send them all to the emperor! -Yes!
There's too many of these! How can I look at them all?
Your Majesty, if you don't get through all these requests tonight,
tomorrow at morning court,
all those lords will say that you
are not focusing on what is important.
Why is it such a pain to be an emperor?
If I knew it'd be such a pain, I wouldn't do it no matter what!
Your Majesty, you are still young and inexperienced.
Occasional mistakes are unavoidable.
However,
if you, for these things,
were to be ridiculed by the officials, I am concerned that
this can undermine Emperor's authority.
Then what do you say I should do?
As I see things, you can, starting from now,
keep your distance from them and don't attend the morning meetings with the officials.
By hiding yourself from them,
Only then can the lords not catch your disadvantages.
They cannot catch your wrongdoings either. Only this way,
Only this way can you let those fiendish lords
truly submit to you.
That's a great idea!
But, do I still have to read these requests?
If I don't look, those old lords will still nag me to no end!
Your Majesty, as I see things,
you still need to read these requests.
However, you don't need to finish reading them all.
You can...
you can choose some educated people to help you read them
and to identify the important ones for your review and decision.
This way, not only can you deal with important matters,
you can also ensure that your body stays healthy.
Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?
Good! Teacher, you really are my teacher!
You have the best ways!
Your Majesty, you exaggerate.
I am truly humbled.
Why hasn't His Majesty come yet?
His Majesty is feeling unwell today.
He will not lead court for now.
What? No court again?
His Majesty hasn't shown his face for a month already!
That's right! How are we to keep going on like this?
That's right!
My Lord.
Help me send the message that I want to see the emperor.
Yes.
My Lord, the emperor is dealing with important matters.
Please go back.
Lord Adviser.
No matter what, we must see the emperor today!
Yes.
We must see the emperor.
Right, we can't wait even a moment longer.
Come.
Does it taste good?
Your Majesty, have another one.
My Lord, they've come.
Don't be afraid. Feel at ease to use provocative language to anger them.
Let them rush into here.
-Go. -Yes.
The emperor is dealing with important matters.
He does not have the time to see all of you.
How much longer does he need to deal with this important matter?
How do I know?
His Majesty did not ask to see you. Please just wait here.
This-! This-!
How is he dealing with important matters? He's clearly just playing and drinking wine!
Hurry and go send the message again!
His Majesty already said that he is not to be bothered.
I am only a little servant. How can I dare to defy a royal order?
My Lords, if you insist on seeing him,
Just go ahead. Just don't let me take the blame.
You-!
How ridiculous!
These are all old loyal lords! How dare you be like this!
Since you are all old loyal lords, you should know the rules.
Without a summons from the emperor, just be good and wait here.
Being so loud and noisy, I wonder who is the one not following the rules?
Move aside! Move aside!
-My Lord! You cannot go in! -Move aside!
Your Majesty, we have important matters to report.
-You can all go first. -Yes.
What is it?
We ask that you pass an edict.
to stop the construction of Epang Palace and royal tomb at Li Mountain.
Shut up!
I build the Efang Palace and the royal tomb at Li Mountain
to be filial to my emperor father!
I cannot accept your criticism here.
Li Si. I still haven't asked you.
You brought all the lords in on your own and broke into my rooms. What is your goal?
Your Majesty!
We broke into your rooms because we had no choice!
Efang Palace and royal tomb at the Li Mountain
take up a lot of human power and materials!
The citizens can hardly handle the tax and ordered labor.
If this continues, our Great Qin Empire will be diminished.
What nonsense!
You all dare to curse my great Qin empire?
