The Starry Night, The Starry Sea Season 2
Episode 16
[Cisun Teahouse]
The Tea Sage previously said that boiling bubbles like the eyes of fishes is considered the first level of boiling.
When the periphery are like connecting bubbles of a gushing spring, that's considered the second level of boiling.
When the water is like raging waves, that's the third stage.
Don't know at what stage of boiling is the tea in your pot now?
The tea is already old. We cannot drink it anymore.
Do you have any problem?
Do you still remember that enemy I told you about?
You're referring to your uncle?
That's right.
At this time tomorrow, I will be able to personally kill the only son of my enemy.
I am about to fulfill my revenge. My heard currently is very happy.
But I instead feel that you are not happy at this moment.
What do you know?
I might be unable to fully understand the pain that you have gone through,
but I know that your enemy is also your family.
Will hurting your family really make you happy?
Don't say it anymore. Since there is no tea to taste today,
I will leave now.
- Lord Mo.- What? You still want to lecture me?
Our shop just received a new batch of high grade Bijian mingyue tea leaves.
I plan to cook them tomorrow morning using dew water. I hope you can come to taste them.
I will be waiting for you.
- Lord.- Older brother.
Ah Li.
Wu Julan will already get executed tomorrow.
I know that you are feeling bad because of this.
How about I let Zixuan accompany you to the city outskirt to relax?
Just return once the matter has been done.
No need.
May older brother not worry.
I have already accepted reality.
Currently, Wu Julan for me
is an enemy that I can't live under the same sky with. I definitely will not feel reluctant to let him die.
Ah Li, you finally have grown up.
Lord, do you believe the words that Lady said earlier?
Is there any difference
if I believe it or not?
Anyway, Wu Julan is unable to live beyond tomorrow.
As long as he dies, this ill-fated connection of Ah Li with the merfolk will naturally be severed.
Lord, you are wise.
But in executing Wu Julan, the merpeople will surely not take things lying down.
You all must make full preparations for tomorrow.
There area huge number of soldiers already set up at the execution area. And also, I already informed Mo Hen.
Tomorrow at noon, he will be hiding at a secret area.
If there are merpeople that will come to take the prisoner away, Mo Hen will then kill Wu Julan.
Anyway, Wu Julan will not be allowed to leave the execution area alive.
Hey! What are you doing?! Give me back the knife!
I am not giving it back. The operations tomorrow is very dangerous. You are not allowed to go.
Why can't I go?
So what if it's dangerous? Isn't Li Gengzhi also going?
Li Gengzhi is at least the shipyard officer-in-charge.
He is used to hard labor works. How about you? You are unable to carry things with your hands or over your shoulders.
Just one finger poking at you and you can already fall down.
Everyone else can but you can't.
You are looking down on me.
I initially thought that I have already done so many things for the merfolk.
Never thought that you still look down on me.
I...have never looked down on you.
You have saved me so many times.
If not because of you, I have already been killed by Liu Mantang.
In my heart, you have always been a mighty hero.
You are making it sound good. You don't want to let me go with you guys because you are afraid that I will just drag you all down.
You...
You really are treating my good intentions as garbage.
Fine. You want to go? Then go!
- Yin Hu!- What is it now?
If we meet any danger tomorrow, do not mind me.
- Why?- I fear that you might get in danger.
I am saying that...as a man, it's fine for me to get slashed by a few swords.
I can't let a lady risk her life just for me, right?
So you are putting yourself in danger just for me?
Don't worry. I surely will ensure your total safety.
[Chang Le Prison]
You're not eating is that it? You are already about to die and you still do not know to appreciate the good being given to you.
- Take the stuff away.- Yes.
[Chang Le Prison]
Lady, if you really want to see Wu Julan, I actually have a way.

Lord.
Come in.
The time has come.
Father, mother, my clans members,
I am going to finally kill the prince of the merfolk with using my sword.
The merpeople caused the death of 15 people from our clan.
They caused me and Ah Li to lose our loved ones.
I never dared to forget this intense and deep seated grudge
even for a second in these twenty years
If you all are able to hear me in the netherworld, then you all will surely bless me to successfully fulfill my revenge.
Let the merpeople never have any peaceful days.
Congratulations Lord. The matter that you have been plotting for so many years will finally get to be uncovered.
Wu Julan's death is just the start.
One day, I am going to use the blood of merfolk to dye the ocean red
to console the souls of my fifteen clan members.
Hurry.. Hurry up! If we are late, we won't be able to find a good spot.
The execution of the merman will still commence at noon. Why are you rushing?
- Isn't there still time?- Say, just hurry up!
If we are late, we won't be able to see it.
Hurry up! Hurry up!
Sir Mo, is that you?
It is me.
I just knew that you will come.
I surely will do what I promised.
These are dew that I collected from the lotus leaves in the pond before sunrise.
It is already well accepted what kind of water must be used in making teas.
People know that mountain water are the best, river water second, and groundwater as the poorest.
Why then must you use dew to cook your tea?
Sir, there is something you don't know. This Bijian mingyue has very strong and long lasting aroma, refreshing and a sweet aftertaste.
And the texture of dew is the softest of all. They are very compatible and brings out the best of each other.
So that is the case.
Tea made from dew is light, refreshing, with simple elegance.
Hence, you must drink it thrice before you can really taste it.
Sir, please sit down.
For the matter today, if we are unable to succeed then we will sacrifice our lives.
My life is just lowly.
Being able to go through water and tread in fire for my brother makes this life of mine not lived in vain.
How come you are saying inauspicious things? What if unable to succeed, then will sacrifice my life?
If you ask me, we surely will safely rescue your merman prince.
What Ma Dachun said is so right. It is already quite late. Let us go now!
Let us set out!
What is wrong?
Stop relying on the fact that you are strong and smart
so you keep charging in front. Always shouting to fight and kill. If you keep doing that, you will be at a disadvantage.
We are instructed by Adjutant Qin to get the prisoner and escort him to the execution area.
- Go and get the prisoner.- Yes.
This brother, have we met each other before?
No, brother, you must have recognized the wrong person.
Wrong. I am sure that we have met before.
Oh, what relation do you have with Ma Dachun?
Ma...what Chun?
That one who used to work as a teacher in the manor of the head of the Maritime Trade Bureau. The one who wrote 'Ten Ways to Get a Girl'.
What teacher? I am a barbaric person. I hate those rancid people who bite words and chew on characters the most.
- You really do not know him?- No...
Without these beard,
you and that Ma Dachun really look so much alike.
Hey, this beard of yours can't be fake, right?
What are you all doing?!
Lord Adjutant.
I told you to escort the prisoner so why are you dilly dallying?
If we miss the execution time, I will let you all suffer.
Get in the carriage!
Let us go.
Aren't you all still going to get on your way?!
Go! Go!
Wu Julan, I hope you can make the best out of this and do not return to Chang Le again.
It is already late. I still have something to do. I will take my leave now.
You still haven't finished the tea and you are already leaving.
Isn't that wasting my intentions?
We were ordered to get the prisoner.
Prisoner? Didn't he already got taken away?
Informing Lord! The prisoner got rescued.
What? Useless thing!
Lord, calm down. I will take our men to chase after them right away.
Hurry and chase after them! You must not let Wu Julan leave Chang Le alive.
I'll be back right away.
Are you alright?
Sir Mo, don't leave me.
Do you have any medicines for burns?
In the low cabinet near the window.
Come. Hurry up.
Why are you so slow?
I am incompetent. I caused Prince to suffer.
Jin Ling, it's not your fault. And these minor injuries are nothing.
We must not stay in this place for very long. Let us hurry and leave.
Yin Hu, Jin Ling, you two go back to the Blue Cave first. I still have to do something.
Prince, what matter can be more important than your life?
That's right. If there is anything, let us first return to Blue Cave and just deliberate on it afterwards.
Prince, I cannot let you put yourself in danger again.
Don't say anything anymore.
- Catch them!- They are here!
Dachun.
Yin Hu, be careful.
- Thank you, General.- Hurry and go!
Young Master, Master is currently so mad and is looking for you.
- I know already.- I never saw Master this mad before.
I think that you better not go back first and just return once his anger has dissipated.
Young Master, what are you doing?
I, Qin Hao, as a government offical,
knew the law yet I still broke it. I privately let the prisoner escape. My crime cannot be forgiven.
My prefectural governor punish me according to the law.
Can you say it now?
Say what?
You did all means possible to delay me.
What really is your motive?
Are you going to say it or not?
You told me before that you are going to personally kill you family to take revenge today.
That is why, I did all means possible to make you stay.
Ah Hen, I don't want you to do something that you will regret out of a moment of rashness.
It is not your decision to make if I will regret it or not.
Miss, I heard that Wu Julan already got rescued.
Good. That is good.
Wu Julan.
Let go of our Lady!
Zixuan!
Where are you taking Lady?!
Lady! Lady! Lady!
Wu Julan, what are you trying to do?
Ah Li, I am fine. Everything have already come to past.
Do you know how much I have been missing you these past days?
Wu Julan, are you still going to keep fooling yourself until now?
Ah Li, there must be a lot of misunderstandings between us.
I already knew about your identity when we were still in the shipyard.
I deliberately got near you and tricked you to have good feelings for me
so that I can borrow your hand one day to give the merpeople a huge blow.
Our relationship is just a scheme from the start.
No. Impossible.
I don't believe any of the words that you just said. Are you deliberately lying to me?
Ah Li, you want me to give up, is that it?
How can there be such a stupid being in this world like you?
You know that I don't have any parents since I was little.
Do you know how my parents and relatives died?
They were killed by you merpeople!
It was you who caused me to be bullied every since I was little and to become destitute and homeless.
Wu Julan, tell me. How could I be able to fall in love with my enemies? How could I have fallen for you?
Wu Julan, if you don't want to die, quickly let Ah Li go. You won't be able to escape.
Are you still not leaving? Do you really want to die?
Fine. After you die, I will help my older brother
kill the merpeople one by one.
Ah Li...
Were you even sincere towards me for even a bit?
Qiu Feng, ensure the safety Ah Li at all costs.
Attack!
No. I never love you.
Wu Julan, from the start until now, my only wish is that you die.
♫ You are the one I am thinking of. You are the one that I am missing. The stars and seas are all you. ♫
♫ The first tear that fell down is still you ♫
♫ In this vast sea of people, I only become sad and happy for you ♫
♫ Blocking the sharpness of the human world for you ♫
♫ Even if I am hurt, I still want to meet you ♫
Why are you still standing here? Hurry and go save him.
Prince will be alright. Let us first leave this place.
♫ Holding hands when we came, empty handed when we left, lonely sky and earth ♫
♫ The first tear that I cried was separation ♫
♫ Within my destiny, within my reincarnations, the stars and seas are all you ♫
♫ Blocking the sharpness of the human world for you ♫
♫ No matter how much hurting, I still want to meet you again ♫
Brother Julan will really be alright after falling from such a high place?
How many times must I tell you before you will believe? We are merfolk. Merfolk of course will be fine once we enter the water.
Aren't I only worried about Brother Julan?
Yin Hu, since Prince is already out of danger, we also should return to Blue Cave now.
I am not going back! I want to stay here in Chang Le
and be with Dachun.
Yin Hu, it is quite dangerous right now. Government officers are just randomly beating up or killing merpeople.
How about you just go back to Blue Cave first to hide from danger?
What about you?
What do you mean by what about me? I have hands and feet. You think I will starve to death? Are you belittling me again?
I didn't mean it that way.
Dachun...
Yin Hu, High Priest has already been rescued for quite some time. Don't you want to see her?
Master...
I indeed should go back and visit her.
Don't worry anymore, Miss Yin Hu. I will take good care of Ma Dachun for you.
I will be back right away. You must wait for me.
I will wait for you.
You scholars are too sentimental.
Miss Yin Hu will still be coming back so why are you crying?!
Enough already.
You're looking for me?
How come you didn't appear today?
There were some things that delayed me.
What matter can there be that is more important than killing Wu Julan?
Do you know that if not because of you, Wu Julan couldn't have escaped?
Ah Li also wouldn't have been placed in a dangerous situation.
Lu Xiao, you better remember this.
The reason that I still allowed you to live until now
is because you still have use to me. If you continue to not know what is good for you and keep being overbearing,
I am not that patient to endure your unruly behavior time after time.

Let me ask you. Who instructed you to do such a thing?
No one.
It was just me who let him go.
I will bear all consequences by myself.
- Young Master.- Shut up!
Why?
I think that killing Wu Julan indeed can give us a moment of comfort
but it will anger the merpeople and evoke a war between humans and merfolk.
That is why, I decided on my own and let the prisoner escape.
Such high sounding reasons.
Why then did you not say anything about this before?!
Do you treat me as a self-willed muddle prefectural governor who does not listen to suggestions?!
I dare not.
No matter how good you can reason yourself out of this,
you letting the prisoner escape privately is already committing a grave mistake!
- Men! - Here!
Drag him out and flog him 30 times!
Husband, just forgive Hao'er.
Master, don't hit young master.
Wife,
this rebellious son did not honor the state's law.
The more he did not make any considerations to me as his father.
What else are you still standing there for?! Hurry and drag him out!
Yes! Yes!
Hao'er...
Husband, Hao'er is young and insensible.
It is my fault as his mother for not teaching him well.
If you are going to punish anyone, just punish me. Stop beating him already.
That's right, Master. Don't hit him anymore.
- Young Master will die--- Enough!
Are you two begging me to spare him?
If you two dare to continue begging, I will kill him first!
[Mist Swallowing Up Yun and Meng Lakes]
Don't know how the injuries of His Majesty is doing.
I heard that His Majesty was badly hurt. Prince this time is really too muddled.
Who made our Prince be such an infatuated man.
Don't say it anymore.
Greetings, Prince.
Spare the formalities.
Prince, His Majesty has been waiting for you.
Royal Father...
Kneel.
His Maejsty, the matter this time was all due to the humans being crafty and sinister.
They actually were able to come up with such a vicious plan
causing us to be unable to guard against it. It is not the fault of the Prince.
I was ignorant. I got blinded by the lies of humans.
I caused our warriors to die tragically.
I caused Royal Father to get injured.
I have already reminded you beforehand that humans are not kind beings.
Yet you kept being obstinately persistent.
I know that my crime is unforgivable. Please punish me to pacify the hatred of our clan.
That's good too. Then go to the Repentance Stone to get your punishment.
Without my order, you are not allowed to return.
I will abide.
Ah Li, were you ever even a bit sincere towards me?
No. I have never loved you.
Wu Julan, from the start until now, I only hoped that you will die!
Lady, it was really too dangerous this time.
If not because Lord came on time,
you might not have been able to return anymore.
Lady, why didn't you just tell Wu Julan the truth?
Why must you watch him misunderstand you?
Only through that can he totally give up on me.
Wu Julan and I are enemies from the start.
This situation now is the best choice for me and Wu Julan.
What do you treat this place as?
- You think you can enter as you want?- Lady Lu!
- Save my Young Master! Lady Lu!- You cannot enter!
Can't you understand?! Leave!
Lady Lu! Save my Young Master, Lady Lu!
- I already told you that you cannot enter!- Let me see her. Why are you blocking me?!
Lady Lu! Lady Lu!
- You cannot enter!- Lady Lu, save my Young Master!
I am begging you already!
- You cannot enter.- Move aside!
What has happened?
Lady Lu! Lady Lu, save my Young Master.
Save my Young Master.
Just based on the fact that he sincerely loves you, please save him.
I beg you already!
Hao'er, here.
Drink the medicine. Your wounds will then heal easily.
What should we do?
Madam! I have already brought Lady Lu with me.
Madam Qin.
Lady Lu is here.
What's wrong with Qin Hao?
He kept refusing to take his medicines.
Let me give it a try.
Qin Hao, it is me.
Drink the medicine so your wounds will heal.
Qin Hao, with your appearance right now,
how sad will Madam Qin and Lord Qin be when they see you?
How hurt will I feel when I see it?
Come, stop making me worry.
Don't go...
Madam, let me take care of Qin Hao for tonight.
Have to trouble you then.
For you.
Today is your birthday. I have no money so I am unable to buy any decent gift.
That is why I made a little rabbit to give you as a gift.
You just so happen to be born under the rabbit sign, right?
Thank you, Ah Li. This is the best gift that I have received.
From now on, when I am not around, this rabbit will accompany you in my behalf.
Okay, we will never separate.
Qin Hao, you treating me like this,
I have etched them all in my heart.
I can only repay this great debt of kindness I owe you in the next life.
