"Don't Ask 莫问 (Mo Wen)" by Zhang Han 张翰
♫ Within a picture, the characters appear strong. ♫
♫ Withered flowers dance lightly stirring up the water of emotions silently. ♫
♫ Don't ask who weighs more in the heart. ♫
♫ Take up a pen and tell a thousand turbulent stories. ♫
♫ The rainbow streak across the horizon. ♫
♫ Does it know your whereabouts? ♫
♫ Pain spread throughout the land. ♫
♫ How long do we have to wait until it turns cold? ♫
♫ I wish. I hope. ♫
♫ Don't ask why I broke up the relationship in an instant. ♫
♫ I wish. I hope. ♫
♫ This hurdle is difficult for people to pass even in a thousand years. ♫
♫ I wish. I hope. ♫
♫ Don't ask for whom this lonely zither is playing for. ♫
♫ I wish. I hope. I sigh. ♫
♫ I wish. I hope. ♫
♫ Don't ask for whom the lonely zither is playing for. ♫

Capture the intruder! -King, please return back to the palace.
What is there to rush? The good show is coming.
Hong Tai!
Don't speak.
Let's go.
Uncle Hong Tai!
Big brother!
Your Majesty, you should retreat and return to the palace!
Retreat!
You go do whatever you want to do.
Hand this to me.
Destiny has arranged for such a day to come.
You are indeed the calamity of Qing Qiu.
Father killer!
You want to kill me!
Calamity star!
Your two hands are stained with my blood!
Your Highness! Your Highness!
The King has died!
Are you crazy?!
Be careful!
Chi Yu! Release me!
Release me!
Chi Yu! Chi Yu!
Don't move if you continue you will be injured!
Chi Yu!
Don't move!
Chi Yu!
Is there anyone out there release us!
Hey! Is there anyone come and get me out.
This is the second time.
The second time!
This is my second time being caught into jail.
Can you be quiet?
Quiet?
The first time I was locked up by you
I didn't do it on purpose.
Baili Han.
Baili Han captured Chi Yu.
Also when Chi Yu was captured he was not in the right frame of mind.
I don't know what is the situation now.
You guys, where do you think Chi Yu is locked up now?
This is all just Baili Han's plot.
What plot?
Baili Han has always had an agenda for Chi Yu.
Now, Chi Yu has landed in his hands.
No way no way.
We need to quickly escape.
You! You, don't you have so many wooden spiders and cockroaches?
Quickly release them!
No way, they are not big enough.
You need something scarier. Elephants! Do you have an elephant?
Elephants are better! -Are you done with your nonsense?
Why don't you try?
If you can release an elephant then I will look up to you.
Seriously...

Sir.
Those three, where are they locked? -Here.
Bring me there.
How could you lock these three guests in such a lowly place?
You are not showing respect.
Who are you?
I am Green Hill's Clan Count.
Following Sir Yu's orders I have come to receive you three.
Sir Yu? Do you mean Chi Yu?
Right right. Three guests, please.
Please.
Sir, where are you bringing us?
Sir Yu has told me to treat you well.
So I have already arranged suitable living quarters.
You three just come with me now. -Wait.
Where is Chi Yu?
Guests, you shouldn't call Sir Yu by his surname.
Sir Yu is going to become the King.
What? Chi Yu has become the King?
Prince Yu has the old royal allies in his side and the support of Dong Ling.
It will only a matter of time before he becomes king.
Three guests, you will be resting here.
If you have any requests please speak.
When can we see Sir Yu.
He has been seriously injured,
the Azure Blue Dragon Mysterious Lady is looking after him.
Don't worry.
Azure Blue Dragon Mysterious Lady?
Who's that.
The Azure Blue Dragon Mysterious Lady is the Azure Blue Dragon Mysterious Lady.
She should have a name right?
I'm sorry.
Her name cannot be just said so casually.
She is called Fu'er.
Fu'er?
Oh! It's that girl from last time!
We want to see Sir Yu. -No way.
Sir Yu has not recovered,
until he has recovered
then I will definitely tell him of your concern.
This is the Green Hill's Palace.
I hope you will not casually walk around.
If you three have any needs, do let us know.
You-! We can't move around on our own?
Please calm down. I will take my leave now.
This is clearly house arrest.
Azure Blue Dragon Mysterious Lady... have you heard?
She's looking after Chi Yu!
The Azure Blue Dragon Mysterious Lady!
Yes I heard. This is getting more and more complicated
More and more complicated...
I think this Azure Blue Dragon Mysterious Lady looks not bad,
she has such a burning passion for Chi Yu,
"I'll look after you, you'll look after me!"
This Chi Yu... how will he not change his heart?
What are you saying? Chi Yu is not that sort of person.
No you see, now he has a severe injury,
then Fu'er she will take this time to enter his heart!
Then how can Chi Yu be able to protect himself?
Stop talking! -Enough Pei Pei.
I'll think of a way.
These spiders will help us find the weakest spot on this house.
let them leave from here.
It's there.
Go.
Brother Shangguan,
you will definitely understand my feelings.
We are connected by blood, you will definitely understand what I mean.
I... -Did you not feel it?
But I am really worried that something happened to him.
Look at the jade, it has lost its radiance.
Qing Qiu is so far away from here,
if it had a radiance that would be strange.
But when I dreamt of him yesterday...
Don't think so much.
Maybe you just really miss him.
So you dreamt of him.
But this feeling... is too real.
Mo'er, you must believe Chi Yu.
He will definitel be able to take care of himself.
Then again, Ah Su,
Xiao Bing and Pei Pei are with him.
Don't look down on Pei Pei just because he is a child.
He has so many strange ideas.
You can rest assured.
It's been so long.
There is no news about them at all.
No news is good news.
Maybe by now he has also rescued Hong Tai
and is waiting for us somewhere.
Right. So now the most important thing is
to convince the Wings Mansion to come with us.
But until now, I don't know how to answer his question.
I have an idea.
Su Shui!
When I really want to find you, you don't show up.
Is that you?
What, have you found the answer?
So you came prepared.
Sir Su Shui, we have waited for a long time.
First, catch me and we will talk.
I'll offend you.
He really is a shadow.
How can that be?
I already said,
I am not human, I'm a ghost!
If you have the skills then come out and we'll fight.
Being so sneaky, how is that being a hero?
Hero?
Did I ever say I was a hero?
Then your skill must be inferior to us.
If not...
Why are you so sneaky, running around?
If I want your lives,
you would no longer be able to speak here long ago!
Such a cruel attack.
But your posture wasn't bad.
But, winning is the most important
Only winners have the right to continue living!
Vermilion Bird Mysterious Lady, you guys are so unskilled.
Since you have no sincerity, then I have nothing much to say.
Why don't we go hunt for the answer together?
Although I have no ways to reply you now,
but I believe that
one day people will be able to understand one another.
One day they will get rid of hatred.
But I do not dare confirm
that one day when I really meet pain and suffering
I will not change my mind.
Whether I will still continue to believe.
I have no such confidence. Maybe one day
there will really come a day when someone hurts my family and friends.
I will hate and will want revenge,
but no matter what
I still hope you will come with us. We'll look for the answer.
Enough already. I promise you that I will go with you guys.
But it is to find the answer that I want.
Brother Chi Yu, you're awake!
You don't need to say anything.
Just rest well. You'll be fine in a few days.
Hey, don't move. Don't move.
Don't worry.
No matter what happens, I'll be by your side.
Rest well.
Chi Yu, do you know?
I like to be with you every day.
Keep you company. Take care of you.
That is the thing that makes me happiest.
- What are you looking at?- Huh?
I'm looking to see if Su Shui came with us.
That's right. We haven't seen his shadow during this entire trip.
Could he have gotten back on his words and escaped already?
Su Shui! Since you're already here, why don't you travel with us?
This Su Shui...he...has left again?!
Just let him go.
I feel that he's a trustworthy person.
This Su Shui, what kind of being is he really is?
I don't believe that he's really a ghost.
I know that there's a Western Region tribe called You Wu.
People there know how to do some mystical magic and they have very good martial arts skill.
Based on his martial arts,
he should have come from the You Wu Tribe.
- You Wu?- Western Region Tribe?
Then, why is he here?
People from that tribe reveres power.
Only through wars and killings
can they prove their worth.
Hence, since time immemorial, they were being hired
by different tribes and became war machines.
That's why a lot of people are afraid of this tribe.
Afterwards, I remember several years ago,
some small tribes collaborated to
scheme into eliminating the whole You Wu Tribe.
But I heard that there were some lucky survivors who went into hiding.
If I didn't guess it wrong,
Su Shui must be one of those lucky survivors.
Let's go. Chi Yu,
must be at Green Hill waiting for us.
When will you let me borrow your wooden spider to play with?
Stop messing around already.
Aren't these the visitors from Jiu Li?
Why? Is the room the King prepared for you guys not comfortable?
We are here to look for our friend.
Let me ask you, where is Chi Yu? We want to see him.
Maybe Clan Count wasn't able to tell you guys clearly.
Then I'll tell it to you guys instead.
This is the Palace. No one is allowed to trespass.
If you guys want to look around, you can request it from the guard captain.
Once you've got the permission of the King,
the guard captain will take you there.
No. How long will these requests take?
And even needs the King's permission?
- And isn't the king already --- As long as the King is still king,
you guys must get his permission.
This is Green HIll's rules.
You... Aren't you guys locking us up?
So what if we're locking you guys up?!
If you guys are Prince Yu's friend
and please think for his sake. He just got back here to Green Hill.
I'm afraid he doesn't want much trouble.
I believe that after a few days, he will personally ask for you guys.
Please just wait for it and don't be anxious.
Let's go.
I've already taken care of everything.
Prince Yu, I've already paved the way for you.
The star mansions Extended Net, Well, and Willow
are arranged on the eastern room.
The Mysterious Lady is also on her way here.
I have also instructed my men.
Once the Mysterious Lady, Ghost Mansion, Chariot Mansion, and Wing Mansion
have entered the city, we will know about it immediately.
You're saying that Su Mo is also coming here?
I don't want her to come. Don't let her come.
Fu'er, you're being unruly again.
General Baili,
it's as if you don't know what that girl has done to me.
But she's with Shangguan Jin and they're here to look for the Star Mansion, Chi Yu.
Even if I don't want her to come,
this...Chi Yu may not agree to it.
Chi Yu,
do you want to see her?
You, stop.
Go already.
You can move.
You, come here.
Go already.
- Brother Shangguan, this is...- Stay right there!
- This is national mourning.- National mourning?
Go already. Get over there.
Why did the Green Hill King just suddenly die?
Chi Yu wouldn't have really gotten into trouble, right?
What bad can happen to him?
Losing one enemy who wants him dead, that might be a good thing.
Could it be that the new King is Chi Yu?
What do you think, Shangguan Jin?
The King is here!
- Chi Yu!- Lowly citizen!
How can you be allowed to see the king's face? Hurry and kneel!
Come. Hurry and kneel.
Don't pull me.
- Rise.- Thank you, Your Majesty.
Chi Yu, it's really you --
Mu'er, while at the throne room, you must not be disrespectful.
I've already waited for you guys for so long.
Shangguan Jin, I've already sent someone to Jiu Li for reconciliation.
The war between our countries has already ended.
Thank you Your Majesty for not forgetting your promise.
I will definitely fulfill the promise I made to you.
About your family matters, you don't need to worry.
I've already sent someone to explain everything to General Shangguan.
This is a letter from your father.
Thank you Your Majesty for worrying.
- Bring them to Feng Xi Hall to rest.- Yes!
Vermilion Bird Mysterious Lady please stay.
I have something to say to you.
Has Chi Yu been possessed or what?
Speaking that way. So gross!
Chi Yu is now Green Hill's king.
He naturally isn't as carefree as he used to be.
Maintaining a majestic presence is also a skill of a king.
He's quite good in pretending to be one.
If Chi Yu is king, then doesn't that make Su Mo queen?
Hey, this girl.
Then does Chi Yu have lots and lots of money?
Aiya, this is good. Even if we are not able to summon the Vermilion Bird,
I don't have to worry about my remaining life anymore.
- You guys can leave.- Yes.
We haven't seen each other for so long.
Did you think of me?
You don't want to talk to me?
No. It's just that I feel that you're a little different from the past you.
Different?
Is it because of
this clothes that I'm wearing now?
being in this palace? or because of my new identity?
You're really Green Hill's new king?
Then where's your father?
He's already dead.
I just learned now that there are things that you can't hide from.
I'll tell you about him some other time.
For now, how about we
talk about our matters.
How dare you!
Who are you?
He's the Vermilion Bird Wing Mansion, Su Shui.
Su Shui, this is the Vermilion Bird Star Mansion, Chi Yu.
Vermilion BIrd Star Mansion?
Vermilion Bird WIng Mansion?
Looks like you've found the last star mansion.
Your martial arts skill's not bad.
I'll remember you now.
Men!
Bring them to Feng Xi Hall to rest.
- Mu'er- Hurry. Hurry and sit down.
What did Chi Yu say to you?
Like...you know what I mean.
Are you shy about it?
Then you can just whisper it to me.
There's really none.
Then did Chi Yu tell you how the Green Hill King died?
He said that he'll tell me in the future when we have time.
- Could it be --- It can't be.
Chi Yu previously said that he will definitely change his fate.
He'll falsify that 'unlucky person' rumor.
That's why, he will definitely not kill his father.
How about Hong Tai? Where is Hong Tai now?
We indeed haven't seen Brother Hong Tai.
He also didn't mention it.
Overall, I really feel that all these are very suspicious.
During the times when we're not here,
what really happened in Green Hill?
We can only first look for Shi Pei Pei and the others so that we can understand everything.
Oh, right. Where's Shi Pei Pei and A-su?
And also Xiao Bing. They were with Chi Yu all this time.
They surely would know something.
What is it? Beautiful sister, you missed me?
W-w-who's this?
Standing there without a sound,
you scared me!
Enough already, he's the Vermilion Bird Wing Mansion, Su Shui.
Wearing this all black clothes and just standing there.
Really terrifying.
Oh, that...I'm Willow Mansion, Shi Pei Pei. Well Mansion A-su. Extended Net Mansion, Xiao Bing.
Enough already. Everyone knows each other now. Let's return to what we were talking about earlier.
What really happened?
It's like this.
Calamity Star! You dare to come back?
The past king died because of you! My fellow ministers,
how can you guys just stand there and watch Green Hill ended up in a scoundrel's hands?
All baloney! Prince Yu ascending to the throne
is just following the Heaven's will.
High Priest,
long time no see.
You said that I'm a Calamity Star, a Monster Star.
I've already predicted years ago that you
are a calamity star that will kill your father. And now, when you just got back,
the previous king just suddenly died. I can conclude
that the previous king was personally killed by you!
I returned here now just to prove
who the real calamity star is.
If I'm a calamity star, I will definitely die under the peach wood sword.
High Priest, who really is the true calamity star?
Who really is the calamity star?
High Priest is the calamity star!
May Prince Yu ascend to the king's position.
May Prince Yu wield Green Hill's main power.
A thousand blessings for Your Majesty, the Heaven's destined one.
That's all the information we can gather.
We weren't able to save Uncle Hong Tai.
And were not able to prevent Chi Yu from killing his father.
I'm sorry.
Mu'er
How can this happen?
Chi Yu said that he will change the prediction of him killing his father.
He said that we can change our own destiny.
And also, when Brother Hong Tai left,
he said that he will definitely come back.
He still haven't done a lot of things he wanted to do.
How can he just leave like that?
Girl, please come down.
How can I calm down now?
So many things happened and I didn't know any of it?
Just like earlier, I wasn't able to completely understand his feelings.
He's friend died a violent death.
And he did the thing he hated the most.
He must be so sad now, so deeply hurt.
That's right. He must be so deeply hurt.
Or else why will he become insane then?
That time, he even attacked me, A-su, and Xiao Bing.
I didn't say anything wrong.
During that time, he hit anyone he saw.
If not for that Baili Han, I'm afraid we all won't be able to control him.
Baili Han is here?
Not only Baili Han, all the Green Dragon (mansions) seemed to be here too.
They were even given the title of special guests. I really hate that Baili Han.
His smile is always so evil.
Baili Han was able to control him, And then?
And then Chi Yu passed out.
Oh, I also heard.
Recently, who was that again? Oh, the Azure Dragon Mysterious lady has been taking care of him.
The Azure Dragon Mysterious Lady?
It's Fu'er?
Fu'er is also here?
What? I didn't say anything wrong.
Oh, right. What strange things happened in Green Hill during your stay here for the past few days?
We were locked up in our room for the whole day. They say it's being hospitable.
But it clearly is house arrest. We don't really had any chance to see Chi Yu.
Ah...everyone must have been tired during the travel.
I'm also sleepy. We should hurry and go now.
Ha? How can I allow that? I still haven't finished talking.
Let me tell you. I even heard from the guard
- that who person...- Hurry and let's go already.- The two of them are staying on one room already!
Enough already. You're too talkative.
Hey, where's Su Shui?
Don't mention him. Su Shui is like a ghost. He'll just come out later.
Hurry and go back to your room and rest.
Mu'er
What are you thinking?
In the time he most needed me,
I wasn't able to stay by his side.
I feel so sorry to him.
I feel that this sorry...
you should say it to him personally.
Do you want to see him?
Brother Shangguan,
- Mu'er- Brother Shangguan,
what can I say now to make it up to him?
If we go there, what can I do?
Don't you want to know what happened to him these past days?
Not the things that other can see,
but the things that are inside his heart.
I know that he definitely wants to share them with you.
Brother Shangguan,
look how we're standing here now.
It was just more than a month ago.
How come things changed this fast?
The person that used to be with us from day to night
has already become a king.
But the Chi Yu I know...
He is...
Mu'er, let's not care first what his status is
or what he did. He is still Chi Yu.
The sufferings in his heart,
can only be comforted by you now.
But how am I to comfort him?
Being by his side
is already a form of comforting.
Let's go then.
Chi Yu should be inside there.
It's just that there are guards. They won't let us in.
Let's think of a way to get in via another route.
Fu'er!
Fu'er.
I heard from Shi Pei Pei that you're here. So you really are here.
That's great! It's good that you're safe and well.
Thanks to Vermilion Bird Mysterious Lady's blessings, I'm still alive.
Did you come here with Baili Han?
That's right.
I did came with General Baili to Green Hill to look for the Azure Dragon Heart Mansion.
If I'm able to complete all Azure Dragon star mansions, then I can summon the magical beast already.
Is that a big threat for the Vermilion Bird?
Lord Jin, don't you have a chance again to kill me?
Fu'er,
are you still mad about what happened in Tai Ping Palace?
Brother Shangguan already know his mistakes. And also, he has already swore
that he won't hurt you anymore in the future.
This time, just go with us, okay?
I had always been worried about you.
Worried about me?
You've already known earlier that I'm in the Palace.
How come you only came to see me now?
I...
Are you really worried about me...or Chi Yu?
