Episode 7
What is it Junior?
Nothing.
Junior, there's still some time before my duel.
How about you train with me so I can review my sword technique?
Sure.
- What is it? - Nothing.
It's just that don't know if Senior still remembers that we made our own paired sword technique when we were little.
Of course, I do. I still remembered that time
we swore to use that sword technique to sweep across and dominate the whole Jianghu realm.
♫ The night is slightly cold, the moon is indistinct. I raise my glass to the war casualties. ♫
♫ The flower falls as the wind blows; frost forms over one's brows. ♫
♫ My dreams are too long. They are difficult to forget. ♫
♫ I keep thinking about them as I toss and turn in bed. ♫
♫ The rain falls on the window frame, knocking down two rows of tears ♫
♫ Recalling the past, they are like facades. ♫
♫ Only an empty scene. ♫
♫ Several golden millet entwine around several worries. ♫
♫ Even swallows and phoenixes are in pairs. ♫
♫ Fate is short, but the love is too long. ♫

Seeing that you are safe, I'm fine already. If anything bad really happens to you,
I won't be able to continue living.

Does that mean it will be raining soon?
Most likely. Let's look for a place to hide from the rain.
Okay.
I already did by coming of age ceremony and now holds the top power alone.
Remove the Chancellor position.
Your Majesty, I second the motion.
A very powerful city can endanger the whole country.
A subject that is being respected too much will look down on his master. The removal of the Chancellor position
is a wise move.
- Your Majesty is wise. - Your Majesty is wise.
Your Majesty is wise.
Your Majesty, forgive me for saying this.
Although Marquis of Wenxin has already been removed from his Chancellor position and has left Qin,
he still had been fighting with the eastern six states for so many years and is well-known all over the world.
He also used to hold the governing power in Xianyang City.
He knows about our Qin situation very much.
If Your Majesty will let Marquis of Wenxin go unchecked and he makes alliances with the other states,
I fear that it might lead to eventual troubles.
That's why, in my opinion, we should send someone
to secretly monitor the movements of Marquis of Wenxin in his manor.
What favored subject is reasonable.
Zhao Gao.
I am here.
I'll leave this task to you.
I will abide.
How about it? Do you feel warmer now?
Yes.
Senior,
do you still remember that I love to sneak out when I was little to look at the moon?
I do. I remember that time that as long as the moon is very big and round,
you will pester me to go to the mountains and watch the moon with you.
I remember that one time, I ran so fast.
When I turned around, I realize that Senior didn't keep up.
And then, I lost focus. I got so panicked that I got lost in the forest.
I also remember that. Afterwards, it wasn't easy but I was able to find you.
When you saw me, you cried so loudly.
You really scared me that time.
No matter where I am, you are always able to find me.
When I was little, I always looked forward to growing up.
I thought that when I've grown up, I would understand the joys and happiness in life.
Never thought that only after growing up would I learn
the advantages of those worry-free childhood days.
These past days, I kept recalling those words said by grandfather to me.
Don't live for the world, live for yourself.
In these turbulent times,
how can I live for just myself?
Senior, if you will be willing to live in seclusion with me,
not anymore asking about the matters of the jianghu realm, I am willing to risk being hunted and killed by the King of Qin
and just escape to far away places with you.
That's right. Hope that in this duel of mine with Yanxiang Swordsman,
I will be able to learn a lot.
The clothes most likely are dry already. Let's go back now.
- Lord Tian Guang is still waiting for us. - Okay.
♫ I looked up. The sky has turned dark again. ♫
Senior.
Have you ever liked me?
Do you treat me as your little sister
or as a woman?
♫ Yet I cannot turn against the already ascertain curve. ♫
♫ Who is still in the domain of someone's heart? ♫
♫ If my heart is not at ease, ♫
Sorry. I was a bit rash earlier. That's why I...
Junior...
Li'er...
Only you are in my heart in this lifetime, no one else.
♫ It is also a scar I am unwilling to remove. ♫
I have nothing.
I also don't know what I can give you.
But since the time I already can understand things, I've already swore to take care of you forever.
Forever not betraying. Forever not bringing you heartache.
Li'er,
if I am not able to take care of you this lifetime,
my existence has no meaning anymore.
♫ What to do? Even if I turn around, I am destined to be alone, ♫
Senior,
you must continue living.
You must live for the world.
You must remember that no matter what happens,
no matter where you are,
my heart will only belong to you.
You must remember.
♫ The way you look at me is filled with love. ♫
♫ It is also a scar I am unwilling to remove. ♫
♫ The road is long. My heart has chased him afar, ♫
♫ but who is the first one to forget? ♫
♫ How could I be satisfied with being unable to see through this? ♫
♫ My empty tears are tied down and are unable to be released. ♫
♫ What to do? Even if I turn around, I am destined to be alone, ♫
Senior, you must remember,
that at whatever time, I am yours.
♫ My yearnings for you are true. ♫
♫ Over years and months, my pain remains deep. ♫
♫ While I try to mask my laughter, the flowers fall like tears. ♫
♫ I have merely turned around. ♫

Junior.
What are you thinking?
I am thinking that I am too blissful.
Too blissful that it feels so unreal.
Li'er,
starting today,
no matter where you go,
I will tightly hold on to you.
Not separating in life and in death.
- I'm going now. - Okay.
Senior! Take care in your journey!
Lady Gongsun, when do you plan to leave?
The Qin Army is already on their way here.
Sir,
please take good care of my senior.
Don't let him do stupid things just for me.
Because he has greater responsibilities. I don't want them to get delayed because of me.
Don't worry.
Welcoming Lady Gongsun back to the palace.

♫ The flower falls as the wind blows; frost forms over one's brows. ♫
♫ My dreams are too long. ♫
Li'er, there is only you in my heart in this life time, no one else.
If I am not able to take care of you in this life, my existence then is meaningless.
Senior, from now on,
that Li'er that belongs to you is already dead.
From now on, please forget me.

You must not leave me. You must not leave me by one step.
You must be with me everyday. Even one day less is not allowed.

Yanxiang Swordsman - Gao Jianli
Sharp gaze, firm foundation, internal energy and external aspects all sufficient.
You are indeed Gongsun Yu's favored disciple.
I, Jing Ke, respectfully greets Warrior Gao.
Let us skip the courteous words. Between swordsmen,
we should let our swords do the talking. Please make your moves.
Cordially inviting Lady Gongsun to enter the palace.
Lady Gongsun, the inner palace is where the royal consorts and concubines gather.
For His Majesty's safety, other than the palace guards, nobody is allowed to carry a weapon.
This bronze dagger was given to me by my grandfather.
When I accompanied my grandfather to see the past King of Wey and the King of Wei,
this never even left my side. What reason do you have now to let me part with it?
In the present world, there are a lot of people that wants to kill His Majesty.
The rules of the Qin Palace isn't the same as other states. You cannot generalize.
May Lady Gongsun hand over your dagger.
Don't make it hard for me.
Please use your life to safeguard this.
This will come with me when I get buried.
Lady Gongsun, you can naturally be at ease.
Please.
It was indeed the Gongsun sword technique. Balanced and gentle. The sword radiance reserved.
Has the way of a great master. Too bad...
What elder means is...?
You have too many worries and your temperament is too gentle.
If you can put down your burden, you surely will become more outstanding.
Come! Show me more moves!
Thank you Grand Queen Dowager for the rice that you especially asked your servant to give to me.
I just knew that you love to eat those.
We Chu people like to eat rice more. The Qin lands are quite dry.
The main crops here are the northern millet and wheat. After eating them for a long time,
you really will miss eating rice.
Too bad, those rare birds and exquisite cuisines I've eaten while I was still
in the Chu Palace,
really have no way to let them send them here too so His Majesty can have the fortune to try them.
What Grand Queen Dowager said is so right.
Talking about His Majesty, don't know if Grand Queen Dowager knew about
His Majesty letting a ordinary female citizen of the Wey State to enter the palace?
Ordinary female citizen of Wey State?
That's right. Her name is Gongsun Li, an ordinary female citizen born in Puyang.
His Majesty especially ordered his men to go to the different states to capture her.
I initially thought that she was an important member of the rebels that's why His Majesty is taking great pains to capture her.
But who would have thought that today, Chamberlain Li Zhong directly guided her to the inner palace.
Right now, she is being served by a group of servants.
This woman is neither a princess nor a daughter of a minister.
There are so many beautiful women in the seven states. I really can't understand
why His Majesty especially had this woman enter the palace.
Just a lowly woman of a vanquished state, what right does she have to enter the great palace of my Qin?
What Grand Queen Dowager said is so right.
After His Majesty did his coming of age of ceremony, he had to deal with so many official matters.
It has always been me since that manages the inner palace matters.
If there indeed any trouble that will happen, I try not to let His Majesty be worried about it.
All the concubines and consorts in the inner palace underwent Grand Queen Dowager's scrutiny before they got to be chosen to enter the palace.
Me, Madam Min, the different Beautiful Ladies and Virtuous Ladies, (Beautiful Lady and Virtuous Lady are different royal concubine levels)
all are able to interact harmoniously and treats each other with respect.
But now, a woman of unknown background has come.
If any incident will happen, it will surely bring disgrace to Qin.
His Majesty is a man after all. In a moment of pleasure,
liking several beautiful woman among the ordinary citizens,
and then bringing them back to the Palace, is not really a matter to be surprised about, right?
What Grand Queen Dowager said is right.
- Don't, Lady Gongsun! - All of you, get back!
- What's going on? - Lady is holding a sharp object and won't let anyone get near her.
- Move back! - Lady Gongsun, being a virtuous lady is a dream of so many ladies.
Why then must you do this?
Lady Gongsun! Lady Gongsun!
Call for the royal physician!
Lady, could it be that I diagnosed you wrongly?
What's wrong?
Lady, forgive me for my rudeness. You're not a virgin anymore, right?
What do you want to say?
What's wrong with me?
Informing lady, I must first report this to His Majesty
before I can tell you about it.
Lady, please have mercy.
Tell me. What really is my condition?
Lady, you...are pregnant.
What did you say?
Junior sister! Junior sister! I'm back!
- Lord Tian Guang! - Young Warrior Jing.
- Lord Tian Guang. - Zhaoge is so far away. How come you are back this fast?
Have you seen Yanxiang Swordsman?
Of course, I did. I really learned a lot in this duel with Warrior Gao.
Really thank you for arranging our meeting.
Warrior Gao even invited me to go to Qi State and take a look.
But I am not really in the mood to do such a thing. Having a wife, one really doesn't like travelling far.
- I'll go in and look for my junior sister. Junior Sister! - Young Warrior Jing.
What's wrong?
Your junior sister has left.
Left? What do you mean?
Lady Gongsun went to the Qin State already.
What do you mean?
She clearly knew that the King of Qin has ordered for her capture. Why then did she go to Qin?
That's right. She had told me to keep this from you.
The truth is, the antidote for your poison was something she brought back from Xianyang.
Xianyang?
This was a very strong poison. How could it be cured?
I went into the city and asked around.
I heard there were famous doctors there who could cure poisons.
I asked many people and heard about an alchemist who could cure it.
It was an elderly woman who told me.
-Then this prescription... -Don't ask anymore.
You have to take care of your wound. Didn't you say you would learn how to fight with a sword
And then protect me? How can you recover if you are like this?
She was lying to me this entire time.
She has always been reluctant to tell the truth.
I have been thinking. Perhaps she and the King of Qin have already made a deal.
Why? It is because she wants to save your life.
Do you understand?
When she left, she took the bronze sword given by her grandfather
and the silk scarf you gave her.
Young Warrior Jing! Jing Ke!
Honestly, whether it's the Qin State
or Xiahou Yang, I don't really care about these.
I just want to look for an earthly paradise,
stay away from these jianghu grudges,
and just be an ordinary person.
You must live. You must live for the people.
You must remember. No matter what happens, no matter where you are
my heart will always be only yours.
You must remember.
The King is here!
All of you, leave.
Yes.
You fulfilled your promise.
I came for my Senior.
You have already entered my palace
so don't even think of leaving anymore.
Why is it me?
With just one order from you, so many dukes and warlords will be willing to offer you thousands of beautiful women for you to enjoy.
Why must you insist to have me?
Those women who immediately submit to me upon seeing me
are boring.
I am not your toy.
The more you resist me like this, the more I want to obtain you.
You like biting people?
Informing Your Majesty.
What is it?
It's a matter concerning Lady Gongsun.
- Send him in. - Yes.
Greetings, Your Majesty.
What urgent matter does royal physician has?
Informing Your Majesty, when I was checking the pulses of Lady Gongsun today,
lady...she...
What's wrong with the lady?
I am scared. My diagnosis is
lady is already pregnant for more than a month.
Royal Physician! Kill the fetus in her womb!
If you want to kill him, then kill me first!
Leave!
Yes.
You think I won't dare to kill you, is that it?
Ha?!
I heard that Virtuous Lady Li is from a warrior family.
You surely got great fighting skills. How about this then?
Today, let us royal consorts and concubines who have been living for quite a long time in the palace see it.
Open our eyes. How about it?
Virtuous Lady, don't disappoint everyone.
Letting you keep the child in your womb is already my greatest benevolence towards you.
What else do you want?
Don't forget. It was me who let you bear that bastard.
That isn't a bastard. He is my senior and my--
