The Great ProtectorEpisode 21
Is it a fortune or a misfortune
ChiefIt's an opportunity
Opportunity
The Blindman's Ridge doesn't need to worry about the ammunition again
Taking their ammunition will owe them the favor
Not good
No favor will be owed if we pay
Buy it
- Buy it- That's a good thing
Hell with himIf Yan wants to control me
Ask the gun in my hand first and see whether it would agree
If the Blindman's Ridge joins the Republican troops
There'll be no more worries about the suppression by the government
You should be shamed to be a bandit
How could you even say something like thatSo gutless
I've been unluckyand have to be a bandit all my life
But you are still young, Young Master
Shut up, Uncle He
You're really not the material for a bandit
but are destined to be one
The Heavenly Lord is really unfair to you
You should just have been a farmer
YeahIt's nice to just be a farmer
You can plant to feed yourselfSo stable
Self-sufficiency is so boring
Uncle HeDo you knowWhat is the best thing in the world
What is it
The things that you robbed from others
Stop sharpening it anymoreGo eating
Are you giving me an attitude
I'm ashamedToo ashamed to eat
Whatever
AuntLet me do this
Where's E'erheWhy isn't he coming to eat
Forget about himSo stubborn
But it's not right not eating anythingNot good to his health
He's been angry at himself and just can't get over it
But to me, I think he's just not hungry enoughHe'll get over it when he's really hungry
MotherHave you seen Lord Tong
Probably hasn't got up yet right now
Oh no. He should have gotten up
He ran away after all
What run away
Jia Kemu asked him to report to the PoliceHe...
Lead Escort Master
Lord Wa
You are eating
You come at the right timeWe haven't started yet
MotherPlease prepare a set of bowl and chopstick for Lord Wa
We haven't started eating yet
Lord WaThis way please
All right
Lead Escort MasterThe food is not very nice
You'd better just put up with it
Sure. It's OK to put up with the food
But you can't put up with some ways people behave
I lost when I bet with you yesterday
But it's not that I was intimidated
I knowIf you went there
I would lose for sure
I would not stab myself three times for no reason
You are really chivalrousChivalrous
I admire you for this
A real gentleman is always open and poised
But the people out on the streets
They don't think that way
They think I was intimidated
Why would you care what the other people think
Well It's not really like that
To make a living on the streets
Reputation is very important
It's not shameful to be beaten
But you can't shout for pain when you are beatenYou should shout for enjoyment
If you lose your reputation
You won't be able to make a living on the streets
I Lord Wa
is a bold and courageous man
So Lord WaWhat you mean is that I should admit defeat
That's not ncecessary
We are all men of decent standing
ButCan you just tell everyone tomorrow
We had a drawNobody won
A drawNo one won
So if I don't agree to do thatyou're not gonna leave, aren't you
WisemanEscort Master Liu is really a wiseman
Lord WaYou are indeed a courageous man
But I think you are not putting your courage to the right use
To say something that might be offensive to youI don't admire you
Continue
Let's put it this way
I've been taking the escorts for ten years
and have seen so many violent and ferocious bandits
The bandits are certainly doing bad things when they rob people
But you know There're indeed certain things that they don't do
Not to rob the elderly, women and children
Not to rob the monks and the Taoist priests
Not to rob the widows and the needy
Not to rob the ferrymen and those for medical service
But how about you
You always muddle along with your followersand pick on the easy targets
Those you harass are all ordinary people from the neighborhood
How could I admire you for that
I'm very straightforwardDon't feel offended
Liu Anshun
Only you can say something like that to me
If anyone else says thatI would have snapped long time ago
It's all because I consider you my cross-generation friend
Lord WaIf you really consider me as your cross-generation friend
Please listen to me for one advice
It is never too late to start doing the right thing
All rightThe reason I came here today
is trying to get back something for my reputation
SurprisinglyI let you scold me for all that
See you laterI'm leaving now
See you later, Lord Wa
Escort Master Liu
I'll let you admire me just for once
You really can talk, Lead Escort MasterLord Wa was so shameful because of what you said
AnshunYou should go talk to E'erhe
Since he lost to you in the fightHe hasn't really eaten anything well
Let him beLet he get hungry
Lord E'erheWhat are you doing
Sorry Lead Escort MasterI have to leave
Lord E'erheDid you forget
We made an agreement before the fight
Don't worryI will not go look for Yuan Shikai again
You are rightIf I can't even beat you
how could I defend the Qing Dynasty
Then why do you want to leave
I want to return to the residence of the Royal Highness
Residence of the Royal Highness
The Ancestral Hall of my family
Everything is just fineWhy do you want to leave all of a sudden
I wasn't thinking about leaving before
But I kept having dreams in the last couple of days
In my dreams
I saw the Damusu King coming towards me
I was so delighted
Then I woke up
I think the Damusu King must be blaming me for abandoning the family property
I have to return to my Ancestral Hall
It's early in the morningWhy are you daydreaming
Xiu'erWhat I said is all true
The Ancestral Hall has already collapsedHow would you live there
I can manage to make it
Freeze you to death at night, you lunatic
- Lord E'erhe- Lead Escort MasterDon't say anything
I've decided
Twenty thousand bullets
If Commander Yan thinks it's too difficult
I will not insist on that
OKI've saidSince I am here
I'm ready to win your heart with all my efforts
Commander Yan is really straightforward
But this is a serious matterI have to report this to Brigadier Wu
That's OK
No matter whether this can be doneWithin three to five days
I'll come back again and give you an answer
Then I'll be right here waiting for your good news
Without any further delayI'd like to leave right now
I'll walk Mr Yan out
Please MissyChief, good-bye
Mr YanWe'll leave this mater all to you
No problem
- I'll wait for your good news- OK
Oh babyWhere are you going
It's none of your business
The man with red collar
You'd better not to have any improper ideas about the Blindman's Ridge
The man with sunglassesWhat you just said
I don't understand it
ShanmaoMr Yan is the guest to us
We have some mutual understanding, don't we
Let's go
ChiefWhat does Yan Jinshui came here for
- What do you think- I think
he wants to take over the Blindman's Ridge
So should we surrender or should we fight
No fight, but no surrender either
Tell me more
We don't have so much ammunition
So we'll certainly be defeated if we fight with them
But if we surrender
He doesn't deserve it
Go test the gun
This guy is really smart
The situation is gonna change
Hi GegeWhat brings you here today
It sounds like I'm not welcomed
How comeYou are my distinguished guestI can't be more happy to see you
I'm bringing you some business
GegeTo be honest with youI injured my back recently
It'll be hard for me to accept the job of a bodyguard
- What about- Liu AnshunI'm not asking you to guard the Prince's residence this time
Stop pretending
Oh my back is fine then
Anything you want to order me to do, Gege
I dare not order you I'd like to ask you to protect a few people this time
Who are them
Do you know the government in the South sent their representatives to Beijing
and plan to invite Yuan Shikai to take office in Nanjing
I don't know
You are really not paying any attention to the political situation
I'm only an escort masterWhy should I pay attention to the political situation
You are right
The people I ask you to protect this time
are some Revolutionists
They are staying at my home right now
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by We,The Protectors Team@Viki
GegeHave some tea please
This is 30% of the commision
So whatYou think it's not enough money
or I don't deserve your consideration
How could that beEven if it's not paid
I would still do it without any hesitation since you've aksed
I really feel flattered
GegeThere's just one thing that I don't quite understand
Why...
It's absolutely irreconcilable between the Prince and the Revolutionists
But why would I let them stay in my homeand even ask you to protect them, right
Yeah, I really don't understand
Whenever there's change of regimes
The previous imperial clans usually don't end up well
Yuan Shikai let us step down decentlyby the voluntary abdication of the Qing Emperor
The new government has been treating us wellWe should realize our situation on the other hand
You're right
Yuan Shikai is doing us a favor by giving us the opportunity this time
So we can make absolutely no mistake
I see
Since you understand it nowThis job...
Are you going to accept it or not
I'll accept it
Where else are you going to
It's so boring staying at homeI'm just going out for some fresh air
It's such a chaos out thereand you still keep going out
You're going nowhereStay at home for me
SisterI have something very important today
There are several well-known performers waiting for me
They want to listen to my singing
Maybe one of them will accept me as a disciple
There're so many decent things you don't want to learnInstead you're always interested in these classless acts
You are such shame to the Prince's family
The Regent and the Empress Dowager have all lost their decent standing
Forget about the Prince's family
Also the legacy of Qing Dynasty
was not destroyed in my hand after all
The legacy established by our ancestors has all been ruined by those wastrels like you
It seems someone said about this somewhere before
E'erhe did
Yes
Father is not watching over what I doWhy would you
Why aren't you getting any better
Isn't this Brother ShunYou've recovered from the Malaria
Beile
SisiterLet Brother Shun go with meI'll be just fine
I asked Escort Master Liu to come here protecting the two representatives
Stop your nonsense
Just don't know what's wrong with father
Got these rebels to our home
I heard that Envoy Song
once attempted to assassinate the Regent
You shut up
I'll shut up I'll shut upI'll just leave, all right
Dad
If Mr Yan agrees to our requests
What should we do
Do what we said to do
Are you thinking about washing your hands and walking away
The hands tainted with blood can't be washed
Then what do you mean
I've been a bandit all my life
In the underworldand with the authorities
There are more enemies than friendsBut it's different for you
Without the label of a banditYou can still become a decent person
I'm doing this so as to give you a decent identity
WhyI don't feel anything wrong being a bandit
Do you really think so
I do think soDon't you believe me
It's not that I don't believe you
If you are going to be a bandit for the rest of your life
Your future can only end up in the Blindman's Ridge
As long as there're rules of the underworldYou and Liu Anshun...
Don't be so nervousCome out
Come out and let me take a look
Hey Liu AnshunWhat a surprise
You look pretty good in this suit
What's goodI feel so awkward
It... feels like I can't breatheLet me change back
How can you change back
Those representatives all dress like this
Try getting used to itYou'll be fine when you get used to it
How do I get used to it
The clothes fit you quite well
But something seems strange, I think
Isn't itYou think it's awkward tooI'll change back
Wait
Your braid
What about the braid
It's the Republic nowWhy do you still keep it
I've had it for decadesIt's hard to let it go somehow
The Qing Dynasty is overAs a Gege, I didn't have problem letting things go
Why would you
I'll go find a scissor and cut it off for you
Are you serious
Envoy Cai, Envoy Song
This is Liu Anshun from Guangshun Escort ServiceEscort Master Liu
Escort Master LiuWe'll all depend on you this time
Mr CaiI'm a simple man
Please just let you know if you need any help
Liu AnshunYour name has been well known to me
- Me- I'll tell you a nameYou must know him
Yan Jinshui
Oh Mr Yan
We're all classmates when we were students in Japan
Did he mention me to you
So Escort Master Liu knows Yan Jinshui
Jinshui told me in his letter
The success of their uprising that dayall relied on the ammunition transported by Escort Master Liu
Escort Master Liu also personally caught the local Magistrate
- So Escort Master Liu is our fellow comrade after all- Yes
That's greatSince we are all Revolutionaries
We must have a drink together
- Good- No Escort master is not supposed to drink while on duty
We're all comradesIt's OK to have a drink
GegeI'm going to take a look at the situation around here
OK. I'll take you around
Please excuse me
Please
.
Oh Lord TongWhat are you doing
OfficersWrong person
My name is Liu
Hey Lord LiuChief Jia is right in the office

Not necessaryI have something else to do
Don't leave
- I have something else to do- Where are you going
Actually I'm not LiuMy name is Wang
Wang, isn'tCome on Lord Wang
Lord Wang Let's go
- I'm talking to you- But...- Move
- But...but...- Shut up and go
Hurry Move
Officer JiaTong Ha is reporting to you
So your face has been washed clean nowWhere are you coming from
I came from the Chongwen Gate
Has Guangshun Escort Service moved to the Chongwei Gate
We do have this planI went to take a look at the area first
GoodHave an Escort Service right at the city Gate
That will become a sight in Beijing
Long TongYou are humorous
But I'd advise you not to waste the time
To make the rest of your life easier
I've reserved a room for you in the jail
Please don't, Officer Jia
I still want to serve my country
The Republic was just foundedand it will need a lot of talented people
Stop teasing with me
Look at how many crimes you've committed
Look at these yourselfEnough to write a novel
Can't be so many
The case of Ge Xiaoda killing her husband
This..this is not me
Wrong file
This oneAdd another chargeEvading police arrest
I didn't run away
You didn't run away successfullySomebody come here
Yes sir
Take him away for interrogationI don't care anything happened before he was three
For anything happened after thatCheck it out properly one by one
My memory is not quite good
It will become good later
Lead Escort Master Lead Escort MasterPlease save me, Lead Escort Master
If not for himI would not arrest you if not for him
I didn't expect that you hide it so well
Why did you say that, Gege
I am so blind-sighted
Guess you've always been a Revolutionist
Don't get it wrongI did help them with transporting the goods
But I didn't know it was the ammunition
I'm not a Revolutionistand have never thought about becoming rich and famous
I am an escort master
I only know to escort and guard the goodsand never thought about doing anything else
Actually my question is really unnecessary
You don't need to explain to me either
I consider you my friendSo I think I should explain to you
You consider me your friend
Maybe you feel that my status is unworthy of this
But I'm just telling you what I think
At time like this no concerns about worthiness at all
Oh I hear that this time you went back to Shanxi
to set the wedding date with your father-in-law
So has the date been decided
What happened
It was over
Sorry
It's OKIt's all over
Here we are
Usually without the order of my father
This door is always locked
Who has the key
Besides my father and motherThere's another one with the Chamberlain
He went to the Forbidden City with them
BeileIf the Chamberlain found out that I took his key later
You must share some responsibility for me
That's nothingWhy are you so scared
Hurry up and open the door
Just rememberI'll take care of everything
