God of War, Zhao Yun
Episode 25
Zhao An is my father, Li Quan is my master.
Please tell me, what is this all about?
When the time your blind is because of the poison within your body.
In time you lose consciousness, I used my own internal strength to force out your poisonous gas.
Also let your two direct arteries and veins to open access.
So your ability to grab a silver from the rock wall above to be pull out.
You can pull out to grab a silver that prove it to you to follow this destiny to fight over the wealth.
My name is Yue Yuan, you can just call me by my name.
If you insist on calling me Shi Ye, I will just leave it up to you.
-Yue Yuan? -I have stayed here for more than 20 years already.
These 20 years are like a dream to me.
Continuously muddleheaded for 20 years.
It was only when I saw you that I recalled everything from the past.
I also gradually slowly regain to speak.
Shi Ye, Zi Long clearly demarcated fall into a quicksand.
How come I fall into the Valley of death?
At that time I also feel this way to think quick sand, valley of death reflect Yuehu ( district of Yingtan city in Jiangxi )
mutually connected with the underground.
It really is the work of the Gods. If not fortuitous meeting, absolutely hard to imagine can be in this circumstances.
Zhao An, Li Quan, they all don't like art of war (book on military strategies and tactics).
Except that, this one young disciple like it.
I simply can not pass on the art of war to him, but this makes him feel too anxious.
He attacked me in the quicksand river,
hit me on the head.
This only then makes me muddleheaded for 20 years.
Shi Ye, then who is this person?
This is all in the past,
I actually have to thank him now instead.
He let me in here not to enjoy not to be sad from our outside world.
To live this 20 years like an immortal.
Everyday to keep company together with birds, animals all over the place and green vine to accompany.
Don't have to make noise and to dispute.
Also eliminates many worries and distracting thoughts.
That is why you stayed outside for some time,
but were not able to adapt fully, so you returned to the valley.
It was very difficult for my heart to get purified.
Why should I go to suffer this mortal life filth to tarnish it again?
After all I've already 70 years old.
I want to keep my last years for myself.
Shi Ye, there is something I have to say.
If everyone avoided human affairs to maintain peace
then how would this messy world get tidied up?
All day the whole country is unstable, the common people all day is already suffering from the chaos of war.
Every time I think of this place, I'm extremely loathe myself
still can not protect the people of the country peace.
Listening to your words,
Zhao An and Li Quan have taught you well.
Good. You have set up a great ambition to aim high.
How about like this? I will test you.
Please Shi Ye give directions.
Okay. What is the character in 武 Wu (military) ?
It is a made up from the character 止 Zhi (stop) and the character 戈 Ge (spear).
That is the character 武 Wu (military). It's because to stop the savage act.
- What is a hero? -A hero is to punish violent to eliminate evil, to help and rescue those in distress.
to help and rescue those in distress. This is a little hero.
To protect the people of the country peace, to earnestly support your country. This is a great hero.
Then what is the purpose of you learning the art of war?
This.. my father and master haven't taught me this.
I didn't really teach Zhao An and Li Quan about this either.
Because both of them did not like the art of war.
Then just say it according to your own thoughts and feelings. Come, you say something.
Learning the art of war is not for increasing wars.
On the contrary is to use the war to stop the war.
Rapidly to suppress in the chaos of war and dispute.
To prevent from injuring many people life,
no war as well as to bend it's own people army is art of war best policy.
In time to strike it's own army.
Must remember! To go to war be cautious to kill few people.
Now, I am going to hand it over to you.
All my life skill and cherished desire and even to take my responsibility, all is handed over to you.
Also nothing to worry about again.
Shi Ye instructions, all my life will not dare to violate it.
You take this. All birds paying looking up to the phoenix to fight over ( Idiom: peace under the wise ruler to fight over) and the book on the art of war to leave from here.
The world on top is still waiting for you.
I will especially cherish the memory of when we were young.
At that time me, you and my brother,
three of us often go up to the mountain to cut ragweed.
Zi Long
Zi Long, is it really you? Did you really come back?
Brother! Zi Long has returned!
No!
Qing Er!
Qing Er, you have to be well.
Your revenge, I will definitely take it.
Qing Er
I will take care of Yan Cheng.
You can be at ease.
Qing Er, rest in peace.
Your wishes, I have remembered them.
Zi Long, I can not accompany you anymore.
You have to become a great hero.
A great hero who protects the country and the people.
Like this, regardless if I am living or not,
I will always have honor.
At the quicksand area, I picked up Brother Zhao's broken spear.
It's the one carved with "wherever Zi Long goes, Qing Yi will follow".
It was broken into splinters.
- Whoever did it must have hated that spear.- Must have hated those words.
From this, we can see that
Geng Chun and Gao Ze are the most suspicious.
Geng Chun is only of average skill.
Even if Zi Long was blind, Geng Chun couldn't have beaten him.
So that means Gao Ze is the most likely culprit.
But Gao Ze doesn't usually seem like this sort of person.
Yes, Gao Ze has recently governed the city so well.
If there are any miscarriages of justice, after his trial,
everything will be made clear.
If Gao Ze is the culprit, this sort of person is the most terrifying.
Looking at all these signs, Gao Ze is the most suspicious,
but Gao Ze never reveals his feelings when he does things.
To find evidence from his actions will be very difficult.
We must give it some time,
National traitor, Dong Zhuo continues to controls His Majesty.Extort excessive taxes and levies.
Among the princes, they continue to invade.
The common people all suffer.
I have thought about this for a few days,
whether I should first avenge private wrongs, or handle the country's problems.
Zi Long, since you're speaking like this, you must already have a plan.
Can it be that you want to join the army?
Yes.
Now your martial arts and military strategies are a bit accomplished.
It's time you leave the fortress, leave Changshan region.
We and the villagers, about 50, won't agree on dispersing.
I'll cautiously lead them, to follow Zi Long.
We'll go on an expedition together, in all directions.
Thanks Big Brother Zhao.
Thanks Uncle Master.
Zi Long, I'll go with you as well.
I'll also follow Big Brother Zhao and go together.
I... father... I also want to go.
Liu Shen can go. Sector sister Jingming,
knows martial arts, can also go.
Fei Yan, you're a child that doesn't know martial art. Why join in with the excitement.
You're not allowed to go.
Yes.
We're all going to join the army. Uncle Master you and Fei Yan stays in the fortress, what if...
Now Qing Yi and Geng Chun are no longer here.
Even though that Gao Ze, is good and evil.
But he, be unlikely to regard an old man like me as an enemy.
Zi Long, perhaps after you leave here, it'll become peaceful here.
The past few days, I was afraid you would be led down the wrong path,
so I forced your betrothal.
Now that I think about it, I shouldn't have done that.
A leader should aspire to travel far and make one's mark,
it's time for you to leave.
It's been so many days without news of Zi Long.
This won't do, I'm going to Zhending county.
You want to go again?
Right now, the entire residence is watching you.
Don't speak of going to Zhending county.Whether or not you can even leave the Xiahou residence
is a problem.
Zi Long,
why is there still no news of you?
Moonlit Jade, we're setting off tomorrow.
Will you miss this place?
Every grass and tree here
is so familiar.
Everything that has happened here
will be cherished in memory.
I wonder if Qing Yi is doing well now.
Are you thinking of Qing Yi as well?
You've personally witnessed,
and you understand best, how firm and loyal mine and Qing Yi's feelings are.
One day, I will ride you
to look for the only one in my heart.
Tomorrow, you're leaving.
You...
Don't have anything to say to me?
Originally, I had a lot to say to you,
but now, I don't know what to say anymore.
On this night of the full moon,
the moonlight is so beautiful,
the river is flowing,
a woman even prettier than Chang'e is sitting next to me.
I...I'm afraid that I'll say something to ruin the moment.
Even if you don't say it, how can I not understand?
Ever since I was kidnapped by the bandits,
and you saved me without caring for your own safety,
I should have understood everything.
Actually, to a woman, a passionate love is something to look forward to,
but finding a man who will care for you attentively
and will never leave you is even more important.
When it rains, he'll carry an umbrella for her.
When it's cold, you can snuggle up to him, and he will warm your feet.
When there are difficulties, they can face it and move forward together.
That's enough.
What you're saying, I can do all of that.
Really?
Yes!
So what this means is, you agree?
Me?
It's useless if I agree, my father has to agree.
Don't be discouraged.
You're my father's disciple,
my father knows you well.
I don't believe he will give up what's nearby for something unobtainable.
Zhou Huai Zhong and the village men are waiting for you at the front.
Zi Long, Liu Shen, you should hurry.
- Master.- That's enough, that's enough.
Don't make it so sad.
Hurry and get on your horse.
You all have to stay safe
and return soon.
Yes.
Master, Fei Yan, both of you take care yourself.
Take care.
Hurry and leave.
There's chaos everywhere and we don't know who's in charge.Where should we go now?
Let's just go and see.
As for any Prince, hear what he says and observe what he does.
See who is really connected to the Hans.
Only that kind of person can be our true lord.
Yes, Zi Long is right.
Yan Cheng, can you still remember, Yu Rang Yishi's tomb outside our village entrance.
Of course I remember.
Can you remember what my father once said at the tomb?
I remember.
What did Officer Zhao say?
Father, every time you return, you will come here.
Who is he really?
I'll tell you about this bit of history today.
A few hundred years ago here, Yan Zhao ruled.
Since ancient time, Yan and Zhao*, these two lands, it's legend was passed down by song . Have you heard it before?(*two warring states in Heibei and Shanxin.)
Father, does what you're saying have to do with this man?
This legend said that it started with 2 people.
The first one is jing ke who killed Qin King
The other one is this warrior.
Ri rang
Ri rang is someone who live 600 years ago of the Spring and Autumn warring states
his lord shi Yao start war with Zhao state's King and died
This is because Zhi Yao treat him as a patriot
He was very grateful.
To repay his gratitude he decide to kill Zhao Xiang Zi
The multiple assassination attempts all failed.
For the sake of assassinating, he ruined his face,
and burnt his own throat.
Zhao Xiang Zi respected that Yu Rang was a valiant warrior trying to avenge his master's death
In the several times he caught him,
he would release him.
Yu Rang felt that it'd be very hard for him to assassinate Zhao Xiang Zi in his lifetime,
After the last assassination attempt failed, he proposed a request.
He let Zhao Xiang Zi removed his long gown
What did he want with the gown?
Stop talking. Just keep listening.
He stabbed the gown multiple times.
Then, he shouted to the heavens.
Lord, wu jing have finally taken revenge for you
Then he ended his own life.
He just died like that?
Where Zhao Xiang Zi committed suicide is the current JuLu County,
It is 200 miles away
His wife brought his children and got to Zhao household
In order to pay respects to his valiantness, the people in Zhao Stockade
specially built this cenotaph*.(*empty tomb)
It's been 600 years since,
His descendants are all gone.
It's precisely because of this heroic act with Jing Ke,
that since ancient times of Yan and Zhao states, elegies of sad heroes have been passed down until today.
Because his lord paid Yu Rang respect, he repaid him with death.
Even if he had to disfigure his face and burn his throat with hot charcoal, he had no regret.
His act of loyalty,
is unmatched by anyone even after hundreds of years.
Master taught us we need to be loyal and righteous.
We want to be like Hero Ru Yang when we grow up and be loyal to our lord.
Yes. That's exactly what I want to teach you.
Loyalty to your liege is important but do not do it foolishly.
The nation of Zhao that was administered by Zhao Xiangzi was peaceful and well.
The people were happy and at ease.
Imagine, if Yu Rang had been successful in his assassination,
then the people would have suffered.
Then, do we not follow Hero Yu Rang's loyal act?
Correct. The hero dies for his friend.
This kind of heroic act deserves our admiration.
But we can't be foolish in loyalty like him.
Waiting for you guys to grow up, you must bear in mind.
Only to be sincere to protect the country and Your Majesty.
Only then can you repay with death and assist with your life.
Bear in mind. Bear in mind.
Who is willing to solve the nation's crisis?
Who is willing to solve the people's fire?
That is the one who really deserves to be our liege.
Yes.
But I don't know if Yuan Shao or Gongsun Zan are such figures.
Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zao are both one of the 18th warlords.
They will soon face big battles.
I think the traitor Dong Jue will most likely not make it through.
It's great that these traitors are biting each other.
Let them continue to bite one another.
When they've bitten to bloody pieces, we'll have His Majesty make his appearance.
When the time comes, Grand Master, make the move.
What about Feng Xian? Where has he gone?
These days Marquis Wen as been making trips to Jin Plaza.
I thought you had something for him to arrange.
Young Miss!
Marquis of Wen, you have come too late.
Why do you only arrive now?
Young Miss, your father clearly betrothed you to me.
What happened?
Why do you still not understand?
My father knew I always admired you,
so he betrothed me to you so I would get my heart's desire.
He personally sent me to the Imperial Tutor's residence to get married,
but who would have imagined,
the Imperial Tutor had bad intentions.
Without care for morals, he took advantage of me.
My foster father has gone too far!
Originally, I wanted to die and end it all,
but I hadn't had the chance to tell you everything yet,
so I didn't dare to.
I could only bear the humiliation and stay alive,
and stay at his side.
Thank the Heavens that I finally have this opportunity to tell you my feelings.
But I
have been sullied by the old scoundrel.
I am not fit to serve the Marquis any longer.
Marquis...
let us get married in the next life.
Young Miss, you mustn't! Don't think too much.
It is the old scoundrel who betrayed his morals.
You have done no wrong.
I had long known of your feelings,
and my love or you has never changed.
I only hate the old man for being so on guard,
that I had no chance to speak of my inner feelings with you.
You really don't look down on me?
As long as Lu Bu is alive,
I will never not love you, and I will never not marry you.
Faster!
Being here is like being in a prison,
every passing day is like a year.
I only look forward to the Marquis rescuing me.
This is not small matter, further planning is necessary.
Since you don't look down on me,
how can you still bear for me to serve the old man?
He plays a heavy weight in court.
I must wait for the ripe time to rescue you out.
The old man is about to return. I'll see you again another day.
Marquis Wen.
When I was still a maiden in chamber, I have heard about your fame.
I always heard about your heroic characteristics.
I thought in this world, you were the only hero.
I never thought even you would be controlled by others.
Grand Master.
Where's Diao Chan?
I think she went into the interior chamber.
I am not one to be easily scared.
I just want to make a perfect strategy.
If I can die together with Marquis Wen, I have no regrets in this life.
- Marquis Wen. - It's late.
I must go now.
No, I won't let you go.
I'd rather die than to live here.
Don't you . . .
Don't you feel the ache?
I am enduring this hopeless torment.
I finally got to meet you.
I've just started to harbor a desire to live on.
But you can spare leaving me behind?
Does everything you say to me just to console me?
No, Miss, you must never think that way.
Marquis Wen.
Take me out of here now.
I can't bear to stay here for another second.
Every time I see the old scum,
I feel pain in my heart that is unbearable.
This needs to be waited out.
I need to think of a perfect plan first.
I know you are pacifying me.
You clearly worry about your kinship relationship.
Since you won't spare me your empathy . . .
Then...
What is the point to me living?
I should rather die.
Miss, you must not! You must not!
Let go of me!
Miss! You must not!
I will clearly talk to him.
Let me die!
Miss!
You ingrate!
Grand Master. Grand Master!
You ingrate! Stop right there!
Ingrate! Stop!
Stop!
Ingrate!
Lu Bu! Get back here!
I will kill you!
Marquis Wen, what's happened?
Why are you so anxious?
Grand Master wants to kill me.
Why?
This not filial son Lu bu
He dares try my love interest.
I must deal with him!
Minister don't be angered. Don't be bother by such small matters.
Small matter? Then what is a big matter?
If i don't punish him, I can't endure this anger!
Minister
Do you know why officials cower when they see you
Because my army is strong!
If anyone dares to question me,
I will cease his existence!
Exactly.
The high ministers are afraid of Grand Master's subordinates. Li Jue, Gu Si and many captains.
They fear the soldiers. And among these people,
Lu Bu is an unmatched warrior.
Why must you anger Lu Bu for a woman?
Your campaigns on horse and saddle all over the four seas,
all depend on Lu Bu.
If you Lu Bu has a change of heart,
your decades of work
might come to crumble at once, I fear.
That's true.
They still fear me because they fear Lu Bu.
Then what do you think of this?
What I think is, you should...
How do you still not understand?
My father's always knew I admire Marquis Wen
so I can fulfill my heart's desires.
In addition, my father personally escorted me to the Grand Master's palace to await marriage.
Who would've thought Grand Master would harbor evil thoughts.
He took advantage of me without respect to morals.
Diao Chan is just a woman.
Lu Bu is an undefeatable warrior.
You could seize the chance
and arrange for Diao Chan to be married to Lu Bu.
Lu Bu would be grateful,
and repay you until the end.
What does minister think of this?
Bad news, miss is crying for a long time at the hall
She seems to have intentions of suicide.
Minister please go and look at her
You still have the honor to cry!?
You just know to cry. Say something!
I endured torment.
If you won't help me, then it's fine.
But you want to chastise me?
You! You endured torment?
What I saw was you and Lu Bu exchanging glances
You seem to be enjoying it
Since you see me as that kind of person,
then I might as well die in front of you
to prove my purity.
Beauty
I was only kidding
Quickly tell me what happened
Today I was alone in the gardening admiringly the flowers
But who would have thought Lu Bu have sexual thoughts
I have no choice but to jump into the pond
To protect my purity
But I was hugged by him,
I couldn't get away.
Fortunately Imperial Tutor came in time.
If you don't believe me,
you can go ask the maid.
How can I not believe you?
But...
I am old in age.
Lu Bu is young and handsome.
He's also the current Great General.
Your beauty is also rare through out all eternity.
Perhaps you are more matched with him.
How about, I'll gift you to Lu Bu.
How could you say that?
I (wife) serve only you.
Lu Bu is only your servant.
You keep saying you love me.
Today you are gifting me to your servant?
It's like my heart,
was promised to the wrong hero.
I'll just go die and forget it.
Baby... baby.
I am wrong.
From now on, don't go anywhere, just stay with me, alright?
Must be some petty person inciting disharmony,
drive a wedge between us.
If we let this petty person succeed,
you can't even protect your beloved wife.
Then how are you going to deal with everyone's flapping mouths in future?
That Li Ru,
with a smiling face, put me in a ditch.
So it's Li Ru who's driving the wedge.
But that Lu Bu is nothing good either.
Are you still going to help him succeed?
Don't worry about other people's business, it's my bad.
Beauty.
In future, how can I bear to let you leave me?
Imperial tutor, I'm not willing to be with Lu Bu.
I'll rather die than be disgraced.
You are the only person I want to be with.
If you were to abandon me, then I would rather die.
My beauty.
I will swear to Heavens. Who ever dares to treat you without respect.
I will slaughter them with my own hands.
I understand your feelings.
But if you are not home,
Lu Bu comes and harrasses me.
What am I to do?
How about this,
in future, I won't go to court.
I'll accompany you every day.
I can let a large number of troops, to guard here, okay?
I, Lu Bu,
to have halberd* in my hands, ten thousand men unsuitable.(*weapon)
With my gold body armor, ten thousand men can't stop me.
Now,
I've disappointed her.
What hero am I?
What sort of hero am I?
