[Lost Love In Times]
[Episode 54]
[Yuan Hao's Grave]
- Here. - Thank you.
Your Highness.
Your Highness, have some food?
I'm now a dead man.
Prince Hao exists no more.
Why don't we keep going west?
I've heard that they have a very different culture
from the central plains.
We could take the opportunity to have a look.
It's just that...
When I think of Ling being questioned by Father for this...
It's really too hard on him.
Prince Ling truly wanted to fulfill your wish.
Hao, you should live your life well.
Now that I'm standing here, I finally feel that I'm free and alive.
If so, wherever Hao goes, I'll follow!
The world is huge.
Having you by my side for the rest of my life
there isn't a place I couldn't go.
[Yuan Ming's Grave]
Qing Chen.
How is it out there?
Is there any news?
Duo Xia announced to the world that she's severed all ties with Prince Ling
to marry Mukesha instead.
What?
Duo Xia has made such a baffling move.
Who in the world doesn't know of her utter devotion to Prince Ling?
How could she possibly leave him now?
No... Duo Xia must have her reasons for doing so.
How is that so?
Answer me. Has Mukesha already retreated from Taoyang City?
Exactly.
I knew it.
She's really put her heart and soul into ensuring the safety of A-Chai Tribe.
It's just that she's too harsh on herself.
Duo Xia.
Qing Chen.
When I heard that Taoyang City had been taken
I worried the most about Prince Che's and your safety.
I've sent my men to search for you in the city.
But none of them found you.
I'm sorry. We couldn't defend Taoyang City.
I was too careless.
I didn't expect Mukesha to break his promise
and led his army to attack the city in full force.
Where's Prince Che?
Where is he right now?
Che is severely injured.
He's still unconscious.
I'm afraid that he won't survive.
I've come here tonight after I heard of a rumor in the city.
It isn't a rumor.
It is a fact.
If I hadn't agreed to do so
Mukesha would never have retreated so easily.
Even if Black Armor Army rushes back
we'll still suffer great casualties in order to take back Taoyang City.
But even if you marry Mukesha, he still won't give up Taoyang.
Therefore, I could only stall it for three days.
If Prince Ling can't make it back in three days...
- I-- - What are you going to do?
I'll assassinate Mukesha myself on the wedding night.
You mustn't.
How can I let you take such a risk alone?
Your Majesty.
It's been a day.
You should have some food.
Your Majesty.
If you go on like this and cause damage to your health
Prince Hao will feel upset for Your Majesty if he's watching over you.
He had left without a care.
He didn't even leave me any last words.
Actually... I just want him alive and well.
I wouldn't have forced him to take the throne.
I'm old now, after all.
I don't know how long I could stay on this throne.
No...
Your Majesty is blessed and healthy.
I still wish to serve Your Majesty for another couple of decades.
You've spent most of your life serving me.
There's no need to abstain from talking about old age.
Too much has happened recently.
I'm too weary to have any scruples about that.
Tell me, am I a good father?
Don't panic.
Just speak your mind.
I won't blame you.
Your Majesty...
I've served by your side for decades.
I've observed and knew that Your Majesty sincerely care for the princes.
I've always thought that...
Your Majesty is a good father.
I'm telling the truth.
I've told no lies.
You're wrong.
I'm a good emperor.
But I'm definitely not a good father.
All this time, I've tried so hard to keep every prince in check.
I plotted against every one of them.
Even though they are my sons, I'd have them vie with one another
so as to keep their authority balanced.
Now, I've done exactly that.
But I've been thinking if I was right or wrong to have done so.
Perhaps...
Just as that sorceress, Feng Qing Chen had said...
I'd end up deserted and resented by those closest to me.
In the end, I'll be all alone.
Your Majesty, you're of supreme imperial authority.
You mustn't believe in such foul words.
That won't happen to you!
You're right.
I'm in the position of supreme imperial authority.
I'm an emperor.
I have to plot even against my own sons.
My sons are also my subjects and eventually in the end
they are just my subjects.
If they are my subjects, they are likely to rebel against me.
They could pose a threat to my throne.
In my life, I defeated Chen State, conquered Suolan
promoted the system of rites and reformed the government.
My accomplishments will be praised by generations to come.
Therefore...
Up till this day, although I feel guilty in some way
I never regretted what I did.
How is Che faring?
His external injuries are fine now.
As for his internal injuries...
I'll have to use my spiritual powers to protect his heart for a few days.
I hope that it could buy us some time to find a way to cure him.
I'd have to trouble you.
It's no trouble.
Prince Che risked his life to save you.
He's actually a benefactor to The Mages by doing so.
Qing Chen!
Are you all right?
I'm fine.
It must be that I've exhausted too much spiritual power.
Don't bother.
I've been trained in medicine since I was young.
Could I not know my health well enough?
Could you look for two medicinal herbs?
I just need some supplement.
What is it that you need?
Ambergris and cicada slough.
Could these two medications really help recover your power?
Don't you believe in my medical skills?
Have you forgotten that I cured Elder Tao Yao of internal injury once?
All right, I'll find them for you.
Wait here for me.
It doesn't seem right.
Although I don't have much medical knowledge
I do know about ambergris.
It only improves blood circulation and nourishes one's energy.
Qing Chen!
Qing Chen, stop it!
Qing Chen!
The Lunar Corona Pebble can prolong life only because
it extracts blood and energy from the donor.
You're too frail now and you're also injured.
If you insist on doing so, the outcome can't be undone.
Che's life is slipping away a little at a time.
We're running out of time.
Yuan Ling and Cai Qian are both awaiting his return.
Moreover, Che's death will affect the survival of Great Wei.
How could The Mages not be affected?
But you should know neither of us could be certain
that the Lunar Corona Pebble truly can bring anyone back to life.
If it's not used correctly, not only Prince Che can't be saved
but also your life will be lost.
However slim this chance might be
I won't give up as long as there's still hope.
Qing Chen!
You mustn't!
Qing Chen, listen!
You'll die if you do so!
Qing Chen!
Are you all right?
Qing Chen!
Qing Chen.
Ming Yan.
Where's Che?
How is he?
Prince Che is still unconscious.
It's hard to tell if he'd survive.
I'm fine now.
Take a look at him.
Inform me if anything happens.
But your condition--
Don't worry.
I'll be fine after some rest.
All right.
Yuan Ling...
I won't be able to stay by your side in this lifetime.
I can only protect those who would be able to protect you.
Elder Tao Yao once said that
The Tourmaline could gather the spiritual powers of all creations.
It can boost one's spiritual powers immediately.
Only by doing so could I have a chance in assassinating Mukesha.
Let's go!
Here, drink more!
Here!
Comrades!
- Congratulations, General! - Drink and feast on meat!
Congratulations, General!
- Congratulations, General! - Drink till you drop!
Here!
Congratulations, General!
Here, drink!
Drink!
Comrades! Let's drink till we drop!
Yes! Congratulations to General and Princess on your marriage!
Say it again!
Congratulations to General and Princess on your marriage!
Say it again!
Congratulations to General and Princess on your marriage!
Drink!
Here, let's drink!
The wedding night...
Do you know how long I've been waiting for this day?
We grew up together.
How could I not know your temper?
I know that even till this day, this very moment...
you're still reluctant to marry me.
It's all right.
I can keep waiting.
I've already waited for so long.
Why would I be afraid to keep on waiting?
You're the princess of A-Chai Tribe.
You're high and mighty.
But I am nothing more than just a--
All these years, I've only kept my love for you hidden in here.
But when I saw how you fawned upon Yuan Ling in Great Wei
I really couldn't stand it!
However...
Thank you.
I'm grateful that you've made me understand to love someone
I should go all out to win her over.
Today...
I did it.
Indeed.
What you said is right.
But you don't know that there's no right or wrong or compromise in love.
Nor should you force yourself on anyone.
Be it Prince Ling's commitment to Qing Chen
or my determined devotion to Yuan Ling...
Or your obsession with me...
However, as a general of Taoyang City
you colluded with our enemies and betrayed our nation!
You made the people of A-Chai Tribe suffer in the flames of war!
You'd stoop to any means for the sake of your goals.
How many innocent lives were sacrificed so that you could get the one you love?
I don't care!
I just want you to know that I care about you!
I want you!
Little did you know that from the moment you betrayed A-Chai Tribe
you lost the right to have a spot in my heart.
I must uphold justice for those innocent souls.
I know that you've always yielded to me since we were children.
This time, even if I can't defeat you
I will take you down with me!
Today...
I must make a clean break from you.
Consort Lian?
If you want Ling to live, come with me.
My mentor was right.
You're the Chief Elder of dark sorcery.
Ding Shui.
So what if I am?
I've plotted all of it!
But you've found out too late.
I don't wish to fight with you.
You hate me so much?
You want me dead?
Leave now.
Run!
If you don't leave now, you'll really die in here!
Neither of us will leave this place today!
Having heard you say that...
I'm content.
Since we were children, be it right or wrong
everything that I did...
It was just so that you would belong only to me.
I have no regrets.
It turns out...
In this lifetime...
This is how we end.
Have you thought of Yuan Ling?
How would you have him face such a truth?
I won't need to!
He just needs to do everything well and that's the perfect ending!
You resort to scrupulous means to get what you want!
You've practiced dark sorcery all these years
- and took so many innocent lives! - Shut up!
How does that matter?
Once the blood from Duo Xia's fearless heart coalesces
The Garnet will be born!
All nine sacred pebbles will be reunited!
You haven't thought of that?
You should thank me for it!
Duo Xia...
Coalesces from blood...
Fiery as the sun and fire...
The Garnet...
What happened?
Duo Xia and I had planned to assassinate Mukesha on the wedding day.
Duo Xia and Mukesha...
Both of them died.
Yuan Ling! It's too late!
Yuan Ling!
We can confirm that your mother, Consort Lian
is the real Chief Elder of dark sorcery, Ding Shui.
Her ultimate goal is to make use of Qing Chen
to collect all Sacred Pebbles of Nine Transformations.
She's the only one who knows where The Obsidian is.
She wishes to avenge the former emperor.
Just like Qing Chen...
She wants to change the outcome.
However, she's used dark sorcery to take innocent lives.
She will eventually cause a great disaster.
If Qing Chen fails to return to her original timeline
she will surely lose her life.
You're the only one who can stop her.
Qing Chen...
You mustn't stay by my side anymore.
Otherwise, my mother will have you killed.
You went through so much hardship to come here for me.
This time...
I'd never allow you to risk your life for me again.
Ling?
Ling, I've already had all the rations properly arranged.
I've also sent more men to search for Che and Qing Chen.
How is it over at your side?
Don't bother searching for them.
Don't bother?
But Qing Chen is still missing--
I said that there's no need to search for them.
This is a confidential report that's just sent from Heavenly Capital.
Father...
He sentenced Consort Lian to death.
[Your Highness, Consort Lian was sentenced to death.]
What about the other scroll?
What is that, Zhan?
Father actually sent me here this time to take over the armed forces.
You are to return to the palace immediately.
Why didn't you say so sooner?
Such drastic changes have now occurred in the palace.
No one knows what Father means to do.
I wish to let you handle this matter.
Xiao Xu was killed in combat.
Mukesha was killed in Taoyang City.
Liang State has withdrawn their army.
Zhan, I believe that you can handle the rest very well.
Black Armor Army is now entrusted to you.
Father wishes to see me.
I'll go and seek audience with him.
Ling...
Father's confidential decree was to have me take over your military authority
and arrest you on the spot to bring you back to the capital.
This is all I can do to help you.
Sir!
Hey!
Stop right there!
Sir, the horse is all I have left!
Is there any moral here in A-Chai Tribe?
First, it was the rebels and now, the refugees.
I finally found a path.
Not only is my journey delayed but my horse is now even stolen!
I wonder how Che and the others are doing?
Sir, do you know how far it is from Taoyang City?
Young lady, you're not from here?
Taoyang City is just right ahead.
However, after the battles, the city is half ruined.
It's chaotic in this area.
- Here, have some. - Thank you!
You might run into Liang State's army.
Young lady, you should leave this place soon.
Taoyang City is destroyed? How is that possible?
Why would I lie to you?
Princess Duo Xia died after killing that traitor.
Even Great Wei's Prince Che died in this battle and no remains were found.
Who did you just mention?
What happened to Prince Che?
He's dead.
He died in the battle.
Seriously...
