[Devil Huang]
[Can't write anymore. No time left...]
I'm done!
Even the sky will fall,
I will not write anything anymore!
[Ann]
Gosh, why didn't you answer my phone?
Come to the publishing house right now.
Director Huang is mad. Said he is gonna terminate your agreement.
I've to go, come right now.
Terminate?!
My goodness, you're finally here.
Listen to me,
Remember to apologize first, got it? Tell him your delay is due to your neighbor's decoration construction.
Gas construction, a relative got married. The feedback is being poor.
Because your fan group isn't stable yet.
The story is just warming up.
And guarantee him with your two hands in the air that you won't delay again. Next week's view will exceed one hundred thousand.
A hundred thousand?!
Right, a hundred thousand.
That's a big lie. Can't do it.
Isn't that the reason you're using every day?
It's the same. Why can't you say it again?
I mean.
Me and Director Huang only talked on the phone.
I barely see him.
So...
So I'm gonna be very nervous later.
Director Huang called your name in person this time.
I think he really means it. Besides, this will affect your agreement of next year.
Wish you good luck.
This the best I can do for you. Bye. I...
Hey!
Director Huang.
I'm Bu Youran.
May I come in?
Director Huang.
Where's he?
You're finally here.
What the heck?
Bu Youran.
Do you know your novel's view this time?
Director Huang.
I...
I delayed this time is because... I'm not interested in your way of writing.
I only need the result.
Seeing from that,
you're the worst of this bunch of writers.
Director Huang.
I'm the first writer your company signed.
I've devoted years in here.
Stop what you're doing right now. I'll give you one week.
To start a new serial.
If your week view is still under a hundred thousand.
No,
two hundred thousand.
Then we'll not sign you the next year. That's it.
Hey.
Director Huang.
Treacherous, despicable and shameless!
Director of literature?
Just a capitalist vampire!
An unscrupulous businessman!
Bu.
I've contacted an archaeologist for you.
Let's go to the Buyiyamaha' tomb to find some inspiration.
You're awake?
Yeah.
Hope this underground palace is worth the long trip.
Hi, guys.
This is the Buyiyamaha underground palace.
- Go inside. - Hi.
Be careful.
Don't break the antiques inside.
Don't worry.
You can go down this way.
If you feel something is not right.
Come back right away.
The air is not that good.
Thanks.
This place is so big.
We might get lost in there.
You're not giving up now, right?
This is the best preserved ancient tomb in Mongolia.
Also the most luxurious one.
But this feels so strange.
The people live in here usually use celestial burial or cremation.
They barely bury people underground.
Even if they did,
it would be highly corrosive. My god.
Come and check it.
This is truly a miracle.
What does these Mongolian mean?
Let me see.
Seems these are not Mongolian.
It looks like it. But it does not make any sense.
Chinese character.
Look!
Buyiyamaha.
Buyiyamaha?
Buyiyamaha!
Bu.
Bu!
What's wrong?
Nothing.
Let's go inside.
Let's go.
Come.
Bu Youran. Who's that?
Bu Youran.
Come and look.
Bu Youran!
She is not from this world.
Fulfilling the decree, she can give you the world,
or destroy the world!
Dongge. You're mine.
So is the world!
Bu!
- Bu! - Bu!
Bu, are you okay?
Buyiyamaha,
Aka Princess Dongge.
The most beautiful woman of the Jurchens.
She had married seven times in her life.
[Devil Huang]
Yes, how is that?
Bu Youran.
I've read the files you sent.
Our editors has discussed,
and decides to give you another chance.
If your new story can save your pathetic view.
Then I'll sign on your next year's agreement.
Yes!
This time, I'm gonna write about
a legendary woman different from other ancient women.
A girl with modern concept of love.
Who does not bow to the power of right nor benefits.
The most beautiful woman of the Jurchens.
Princess Buyiyamaha, aka Dongge.
was born in the Yehe clan, Jurchens.
In Wanli Era of Ming Dynasty, All the war lords were lurking,
waiting for a chance to change the situation.
[ Rule the World ] The most beautiful woman Dongge
became the political tool of the Yehe clan.
In the war of the nine clans.
Yehe was defeated.
Dongge's father Buzhai was killed by Nurhachi.
In order to make peace with Jianzhou, Dongge's elder brother Buyanggu betrothed her to the murderer Hurhachi.
But Dongge would rather die than marry him. [ Dongge ] So Nurhachi had to detain her in Jianzhou.
Take this hairpin down.
[Gedai]
Princess.
I'm gonna go horse racing with those princes.
This hair style is so inconvenient.
Then... What kind of hairstyle do you want?
My lord.
Which prince is this?
Why do you look so familiar?
How is that?
Putting on these men's wear.
Am I more handsome than you?
[The eldest princess Cuyen]
But this outfit is not enough.
Here.
Must work with him.
A nice horse.
Just too wild for me.
Not my kind.
That's right.
Princess should choose a mature and steady horse
which can only fit with Dongge's sedate and valiant character.
[The second prince Daisan] Am I right? Big brother.
Daisan you sweet talker.
But...
This Jade Lion is too soft.
I think you still consider me as that little kid who is poor at riding.
Dongge is right.
My Swift Horse has been to the battlefield and rendered meritorious services.
He is brave and proud.
Can't fit you better.
Thank you for taking care of everything for me.
But I'm not that little princess anymore.
I can choose my horse by my own.
Look.
Is she the horse our father granted to Concubine Monggo,
Black Thief?
That's right.
Aunt doesn't feel well these months,
can't come out to play. So she gave her to me.
I'll set out first.
Princess, be careful. Don't let Concubine Monggo worry about you.
This little girl is getting more wild.
Dongge, wait for me.
Dongge, Cuyen and Daisan were very close since childhood.
The three of them grew up together.
Daisan is a kind and gentle man.
So Dongge and him are much closer.
- Dongge. - What?
- Get on my horse. - Let go!
- Come. - Let me go!
Dongge.
Dongge. Are you alright?
Dongge, I'll held you up.
Dongge, did you get hurt?
Let go of me. Big brother, give her some time.
She is frightened.
Are you alright?
I'm fine.
You blind beast!
What're you doing?
If you dare, slash me as well.
Why vent it on her?
She hurts you.
Of course she should die.
You...
You're just like your father!
Yeah.
My father is a hero,
the strongest Baturu of Jurchens.
I'm proud to be a man like him.
A real Baturu will never kill an innocent!
Enough!
Stop arguing, you two.
Let's go back.
We'll go hunting the other day.
- Let's go. - Wait!
Dongge.
You mean my father is stronger than me?
Are you gonna marry him in the future?
Big brother, why are you make it hard on Dongge?
What nonsense are you talking about?!
Dongge.
Are you still gonna continue the fight with my father?
You don't like him even a little bit?
Of course I don't like Nurhachi.
Good!
I'll ask father to bestow you to me.
What do you think I am?
I'm not a domestic animal.
To be bestowed with.
Dongge is right.
You can't force a marriage.
I support you.
Daisan, let's go back.
What about me?
Like father, like son.
He didn't learn any virtue of him, but all the unreasonable and rude part.
Dongge.
Beile.
What brought you here, my lord?
[Nurhachi] I've been looking for you.
Come, I've something nice to show you.
Go hunting?
Not interesting. No
Even more spoiled.
This Firefox fur is a nice thing.
A gift from Cuyen or Daisan?
It's from the eighth prince.
He sends me one every year.
Eighth prince is quite a filial son.
That stupid kid,
hasn't come back for years.
Only sends people to bring gifts back.
But didn't come back to visit me and aunt.
You can't blame him.
These years we're always fight wars.
Princes all came to fight along with me.
Although eighth prince is still young.
But he starts to show his talent in the field.
He's a god-given talent.
No matter how important it is.
He can't just ignore his mom.
Even me, his cousin, can barely remember his face.
Speaking of that,
If you see him now,
you won't recognize him.
He has become much taller and stronger.
He is back?
Yes, but lately Monggo is seriously ill.
He is keeping her accompany day and night.
Didn't get any sleep. Serving her tea and food.
Has pined away a lot.
Aunt is ill again?
Not very serious.
Women have headache and soreness of waist a lot.
She is always weak.
Easily to get ill these time each year
Let's not talk about this.
Come, I'll take you outside to get some air.
- I wanna see aunt. - Later.
After we get back.
Where're we going?
You'll see.
Look!
What is the thing you want me to see?
The city?
This is my city.
In future, I'll have more and bigger cities.
If you want,
they'll be our cities, you and me.
Such a big gift.
It's more than I can afford.
I say you can.
So you can.
Beile must have forgotten
that it was you who killed my father.
If I accept such a big gift from the murderer,
how will the Yehes see me?
Nurhachi! [Gundai]
My lord!
Watch out!
No!
Nurhachi, you killed my father.
You must pay for it! If you want your father's corpse,
you must accept my conditions. Bah! Nurhachi.
I'll never marry to a devil who killed my father!
Listen to me,
Me, Yehe Nara Buyiyamaha
call heaven to witness,
if one day, someone can get revenge for my father and kill Nurhachi,
I'll marry him at once.
I will never regret it!
After so many year, I thought...
You thought I've forgotten?
Beile,
Dongge isn't such a heartless girl.
After all, you killed my father.
That's absolutely irreconcilable.
Yehes have been fighting over Jianzhou these years.
As Jianzhou's governor,
I must do something for my soldiers.
As for you and me,
I truly let you down.
Maybe you can see these as some compensations.
My lord, you're joking.
You can say this city is mine.
But you can't let me live in this big city alone.
In the end,
just make a gesture,
and please me to your convenient.
Buyiyamaha.
Don't push it too far.
Thank you, my lord.
Where're you going?
To see my aunt. You!
Beile.
I'm quite a boring girl.
Sorry to let you down.
Maybe tomorrow, you can take your concubines to see this.
They will be very pleased
to hear what you told me just now.
Don't you value my kindness to you?
I can't care less.
It's your right.
Remember your words.
Wait and see.
I wanna see,
if my kindness to you is dangerous or not.
You can't care less?!
Go back!
Aunt, these flowers in the garden are blossoming.
I told my maid to collect some.
Let some fresh flowers decorate your room.
[Monggo] It's so beautiful.
Thank you for thinking of me.
I'm glad you like it.
Haizhen.
Hurry.
Aunt.
Have you had your pills today?
I think aunt's illness is because of Nurhachi!
Aunt.
Here, have some water.
Dongge.
Don't say that.
Alright, alright.
I was wrong.
Aunt,
don't be angry.
I'm not angry with you.
But girls born in Yehe...
Their poor fate.
Has to live under other people's roof.
Luckily, I have aunt by my side.
Now in my heart,
Aunt is the only relative I can rely on in this world.
Dongge.
Aunt can't be here with you forever.
Then I'll stay with aunt forever.
Right, I heard Hong Taiji is back.
Where's him?
Where's Hong Taiji?
My lady, I heard the servants talking.
Said he has gotten up. I think he will come after breakfast.
I like your maids, so smart.
Hong Taiji is too young.
I'm afraid he doesn't have that luck
to be called as a lord.
The eighth prince has arrived.
Greetings, mom.
Raise, my son.
[The eighth prince Hong Taiji] Your cousin Dongge came.
You two haven't seen each other for a long time.
Now you can finally catch up.
Dongge.
I didn't expect it's you.
You like him so much.
Why don't you name him?
A name?
You won that honor.
Give him a name,
you earned it.
Hong Taiji?
A good name.
Hong Taiji, then.
My eighth prince,
Aisin Gioro Hong Taiji.
Greetings, sis Dongge.
Kiddo.
It just has been a few years.
You're so tall.
Do you remember your sis Dongge?
Thank god she was with me when you were born.
Call me elder sister.
Sister.
You two should visit each other more.
There're no person I'll trust more than Dongge.
Aunt.
I know I'm nagging.
Eighth prince is too young.
Doesn't have much experience.
You two should help each other in the future.
Don't worry.
You're my only relative in here.
Of course he is my dearest little brother.
Dongge.
Aunt.
You two are all I have.
Aunt.
- Mom! - Aunt!
Aunt. Call the doctor.
Yes.
- Aunt! - Mom.
Aunt!
Hurry.
He is here.
Hurry!
I bow to the eighth prince, and princess.
Enough with these formalities.
Check the concubine' condition first.
Yes.
- Aunt! - Mom.
Mom.
Aunt.
I miss my mom.
Aunt, what do you need?
I'm here, mom.
Mom.
Bring me home.
You're home.
Aunt...
Mom, I want to
go home.
I'll bring you home.
I'll bring you to your mom.
Father,
My mother's illness is getting more serious every day.
The doctor has checked her.
Said...
She doesn't have much time left.
In her sleep,
mom was whispering her homeland.
Hoping she can go back to visit.
Father, I beg you
Please grant that.
To inform Yehe about mom's will.
Maybe, mom's family can come here to see her
for the last time.
She illness has gone that bad.
I have seen her once last year when we hunted.
She was fine. Illness came so quick.
These days, mom has fallen in a coma a lot.
Vomits her medicine and blood.
I'm afraid she doesn't have much time.
I see.
Anything else?
None.
Leave first.
Father.
I'm afraid mother doesn't have many days left.
I know you have to think for the whole world.
Nowadays Jianzhou and Yehe are not in their best days.
But she is your wife.
She has never asked you for anything.
Can't you give her the last thing she wants before she dies?
Do you know what you're talking about?!
Dongge.
You came.
Right.
I just got an old ginseng.
Give it to concubine Monggo.
Hope this will help.
Thank you for that.
Dongge.
Who are you waiting for in here?
Hong Taiji went to see Beile.
I'm worried about him.
So I came out to check.
Why did he go to see father?
Aunt's condition has gone worse.
The doctor said,
She might not make it this time.
But aunt kept saying
she misses her mom.
Talking about going home every day.
So Hong Taiji went to beg Beile.
See if he can let aunt's mom come to Jianzhou for a visit.
I'm afraid, Hong Taiji will be disappointed.
Why?
Just let a mom come to see her daughter for the last time.
It's no big deal.
Yehe and Jianzhou's relationship is not like before.
But due to Concubine Menggo's marriage,
the two families were still in peace.
But the old agreement signed by both countries
is now exists in name only.
Especially your elder brother Buyanggu
he always keeps a long distance with Jianzhou.
And makes friends with other tribes.
Father has seen this for a long time.
And he has been not pleased by it.
He was gonna find a right chance to teach him a lesson.
So he won't betray us.
Think about it.
If not for those reasons,
why would he keep you here but still unmarried.
I don't understand any of that.
I only know that Other than benefits,
Relatives are what people should value the most.
So Nurhachi couldn't care less about aunt these years?
Dongge.
You can't do anything hasty
or act recklessly.
Now anything can change the whole situation.
At this time, you should take care of yourself.
That's the only way you can help your aunt to fulfill her wish.
Understand?
Don't worry about me.
I'll go check, see if Hong Taiji is back.
Wait.
I'll go.
Just wait here.
Greetings, father.
Your eighth brother has grown up.
Talks back to his father.
Disrespects the elder.
Being shortsighted.
Can't see from the whole situation.
Please ease your anger.
He is still young.
It's normal that there's things he can't understand.
After all, he is worrying about his mom.
If he offended father in words.
Please forgive him.
Abandons himself to emotion.
That's not a great man does.
In the future, you should teach your eighth brother about how to be a son of mine!
Yes.
Father, lately eighth brother obeys your order
to ride and practice archery every day.
He has been more skilled with his riding.
Next time when we go hunting,
Eighth brother will let you see that.
Horse riding, hunting and archery,
That's what a man should do.
Go learn some city affairs and military chores with your brothers tomorrow.
Don't say these inappropriate things anymore.
Within half a year,
You'll understand
how ridiculous those things you asked today .
Go back now.
How is that?
What did your father say?
He told me to go learn some military things with my brothers.
What is that?
Did you tell him about Yehe?
I knew it.
That man won't agree that easily.
I'll see what I can do.
Where're you going?
What do you think?
You can't go.
It's what your mom wants.
Maybe it's her last wish.
Dongge.
Listen to me.
You can't go.
Do you remember what I told you?
Do you know how many years father has been waiting for you to beg him?
If father wants to marry you.
What kind of situation will you put me into?
I know.
But is there another way except this?
I know what you're talking about.
It's okay.
I don't care.
For my aunt.
I can give everything for aunt.
Aunt has left home for fifteen years.
Never seen her family again.
She misses her mom.
Misses her family.
That kind of feeling is so deep.
I also feel the same.
There's no way I can sit and watch her
dying with regrets.
I...
I must help her.
Dongge!
Hong Taiji.
Listen to me.
I don't believe your father can be that ruthless.
I bet he will agree.
It's okay.
I'll come back soon.
Dongge!
Princess, Beile has gone to bed.
Come to see him tomorrow. - Step aside. - Princess.
You go tell his lordship,
Tell him it's urgent.
I must tell him in person.
This...
What?
You let me wait in the hall for a long time.
Now you still won't let me pass.
Akedun.
You're getting even bolder.
I dare not.
Fine.
Hiding from me?
If you won't let me go in today.
Then I'll not see him even he comes to beg in person!
Princess.
Princess!
Princess Dongge has arrived!
