[Nirvana in Fire 2: The Wind Blows in Chang Lin] 3
[Episode 13] 4
With all the commotion in the city, I thought you wouldn't have come today. 5
Royal Father and Pinzhang are not feeling good too. 6
Too bad that I cannot offer much assistance. 7
I heard some rumors. Was it really Grand Madam Laiyang? 8
What people hold closely to themselves 9
is difficult to decipher by others. 10
All these years, she always stayed low-keyed, obedient, 11
and thanked the Emperor's grace repeatedly. 12
Who could have guessed that inside her 13
was full of hatred. 14
I don't understand. What did she hate about? 15
Why did she target the Chang Lin Manor? 16
Of course you wouldn't understand it. 17
I only just understood some after asking Pingzhang last night. 18
Father was the one who first uncovered Prince of Laiyang's crime. 19
His Majesty was the one who oversaw the investigation and the late Emperor passed the sentence. 20
Therefore, she hated everyone related to the case. 21
But because of her position, she couldn't do anything to His Majesty. 22
Of course Chang Lin Manor is the first she would target. 23
At least such a vicious person could not get close to father and Pingzhang. 24
The hardships you suffered would soon pass. 25
Your torment will gradually dissipate. 26
Commander, the Capital Patrols has been ordered to take over. They are awaiting orders outside. 27
Remember, the Marquis Laiyang is under investigation, he is not under arrest. 28
Once His Majesty is well, he would be summoned. 29
I don't know how well he could handle this misfortune. 30
Let your subordinates know this and take good care of him. 31
I understand. 32
Thank you for accompanying me to here. 33
I will go back on my own from here. 34
Safe journey. 35
Pingjing! 36
What are you doing here? 37
Did you know it was all because of me? 38
What are you talking about? 39
She has been tormented all these years. 40
It's all because of me that she has been barren. 41
Because there are those who 42
believe that I should inherit Changlin Manor. 43
Do you have any wine? 44
Where is Pingjing? Why didn't he come eat? 45
He went out. 46
Well, have you asked what has happened to Butler Zhou? 47
I've asked. Most likely he abused the name of the Manor and did something wrong. 48
You know, this is one thing that Royal Father cannot tolerate the most. 49
Since this is the reason, looks like there's nothing we can do about it. 50
Royal Father is unhappy about this. Don't bring up this matter anymore. 51
It's good that all these unhappy matters are finally coming to an end. 52
Though Marquis Donghai Mozi has left a message that he would return to Donghai, before we can be sure that he is gone, 53
I am concerned that it is not the end yet. 54
The cicadas are pure and incorruptible, akin to Bo Yi's integrity and loyalty; 55
Such that even emperors and ministers alike wear symbols on their robes, aspiring to uphold its unsullied noble aspirations. 56
Geqing tea. To help you be sober. 57
Drink it. 58
Lin Xi. 59
I should not trouble you. 60
But I really have nowhere else to go. 61
What do you want to trouble me about? 62
Can I hide here for a few days? 63
Why are you hiding? 64
I feel ashamed about going back. 65
I cannot face my elder brother and sister-in-law. 66
So you think hiding will make the problem go away? 67
Is this will going to be useful? 68
Xiao Yuanqi was still unborn when his father was ordered to commit suicide. 69
Mother and son have supported each other to survive. 70
Marquis, please be rest assured. This letter will be put to good use. 71
How long will it take to arrange everything? 72
Please be patient. The longer the spy is being hidden, the better effect we will get. 73
When the time is right, Xiao Yuanqi will become 74
a poisoned knife for Donghai. 75
Even waiting for 3 or 5 years is acceptable. 76
It is so windy outside, 77
where are you going? 78
Are you sure you won't want me to go? 79
This loud personality of yours 80
is really like Elder Meng. 81
Why are you talking about me all of a sudden? 82
Don't you feel like our home has become very quiet? 83
Pingjing hasn't come home in 2 days. 84
That's actually true. What's wrong with him? 85
He is probably just throwing tantrums. 86
Did father lecture him again? 87
I guess so. 88
The crimes of Grand Madam Laiyang are now very clear. 89
Marquis Mozi killed her first. 90
It is easy to take care of her burial. 91
But the problem is Yuanqi. 92
You think his mother's situations, 93
he knows about it? 94
I heard from Feizhan that he was in complete shock. 95
I believe he doesn't know. 96
I also believe that. 97
No matter what, even though criminals are evil, but they still love their children. 98
Not telling him is for his own good. 99
Yuanqi was very young. 100
Also he can't help with anything. 101
Your majesty, about his father... 102
No one probably has told him either. 103
After all, he is the previous Emperor's grandson. 104
I never knew you would be pretty good at doing this. 105
Of course! I used to do a lot of work at Langya Hall. 106
How long do you want to stay here for? 107
Lin Xi, I help you with work everyday. 108
Let me stay for a few more days. 109
It's not that you don't like me. 110
Good thing Father hasn't heard you talk to a girl like that. 111
Did you learn that attitude from Langya Hall too? 112
I know that hiding when you are upset is a habit, 113
but you have disturbed Miss Lin for 2 days and you still don't want to leave? 114
You really meant for me to come pick you up? 115
What? You know I'm not a biological son, so your not going to listen to me? 116
You will always be my older brother. 117
I just felt too ashamed to return home. 118
And also scared. 119
What are you scared about? 120
I'm scared your going to be mad at me. 121
Why would I be mad? 122
Brother, nothing has changed. 123
Everything is just like before right? 124
Do you want it to change? 125
I don't need to lecture you. 126
You understand it already. 127
Let's go home. 128
Quickly get up! Quickly get up! Young Prince is coming here. 129
Young Prince, this area is placed under restriction. You cannot casually move around. 130
Young Prince, about the crimes done by your mother, 131
You know very clearly, 132
I also don't need to explain about the rules of the government anymore. 133
We all are just doing our duty. 134
May Young Prince not make it difficult for us. 135
I just want to ask, 136
has Pingjing come these few days? 137
Putting the Laiyang Manor under restriction 138
is the task of our Patrol Guards. 139
Why would he come? 140

Brother! 142
Does sister-in-law know? 143
When father adopted me, the family was not in the capital. 144
The people who knew about it other than mother and Butler Zhou 145
were the former emperor and His Majesty. 146
As time went on, naturally no one would mention it. 147
I'm not talking about that. 148
I am saying that Butler Zhou did it because of me... 149
Does sister-in-law know? 150
Then don't tell her. 151
Your not willing. So I won't say anything. 152
Things already have happened, saying or not saying 153
doesn't make a difference. 154
I don't want to talk about it and add it on to her problems. 155
Oh yeah! Brother! 156
Also me leaving the house 157
can you not tell father? 158
If father knows, 159
then the king would also know. 160
That might really be the case. 161
Pingjing really just ran away and hide? 162
Yes, this child is too honest. 163
He probably thought that he had offended his sister-in-law 164
and is a little guilty. 165
Although he indeed is involved in this matter, 166
the main reason was still a narrow-minded villainous person. It was really not his fault. 167
That rascal. 168
His elder brother waited a few days and went to pick him up today. 169
He wouldn't dare not to return home. 170
That's good. Every since Pingzhang was young 171
he has been good at coaxing Pingjing. 172
Informing Your Majesty, the cabinet sent word 173
that the envoys from Donghai has reached E'zhou. 174
They will arrive in the capital after 7 days. 175
I understand. 176
Dilly-dallying. 177
This Marquis Mozi almost turned the capital into chaos and their Donghai envoy troupe will just be arriving? 178
Imperial Brother, do you think this top world fighter 179
would still dare to come see me? 180
I think, even if the Marquis Mozi is in the visiting group, 181
Donghai's envoy would not dare to admit 182
that this person has visited Great Liang. 183
Marquis Mozi is most likely not there. 184
Keep up! 185
Brother do you think he already left or 186
still hiding in some place here in Jinling? 187
By all reason, Marquis Mozi should have achieved his objective in Jingling. 188
He did everything he would have wanted to do. 189
It's not wise for him to stay and provoke Great Liang. 190
For some reason, 191
I feel like he hasn't left yet. 192
You think something's wrong? 193
I am thinking about the note he left behind. 194
My past grudges have been pacified. I should return to Donghai. 195
But that doesn't prove he already left. 196
Why did he deliberate leave a note, unless 197
Is he scared that people won't know he left? 198
Marquis Mozi wants people to think that he left. 199
But he really hasn't left. 200
If he stays, what can he do? 201
That's hard to say. 202
The capital is large. If he deliberately hides, 203
In order to find him it might take some time. 204
Although Jingling is a large city, 205
there aren't too many places that would interest the number one fighter on the Langya list. 206
Since we aren't too sure we should prepare for it. 207
Strengthen our defenses. 208
That's true. 209
I can't with that much. 210
But Pingjing is really useful. 211
Commander, just take him then. 212
I have other things to do, so I will leave first. 213
Feizhan, regarding Yuanqi, I think you must increase his security. 214
I understand. Leave it to me. 215
Oh, right, Brother Xun. You work inside the palace. How is His Majesty's mood lately? 216
Yuanqi wanted me to ask His Majesty a favor to allow him to bury his mother. 217
Grand Madam Laiyang did so many crimes. 218
How can there be anyone allowed to collect her corpse and prepare a burial for her? She already got buried somewhere. 219
Your foundation is not bad. Your internal breathing is firmly strong. 220
If you are diligently trained, you still can achieve great improvement. 221
Who are you? 222
Let me introduce him. 223
His is someone who can help you 224
and achieve everything you wish for. 225
What my heart wants, 226
how would you guys know? 227
I of course know. 228
Donghai envoy is here is pay respect to the Emperor. 229
Okay, you may all rise. 230
Thank you, your majesty. 231
Enjoy, you made an arduous journey from afar. 232
Our two nations have maintained a peaceful accord. 233
For us to be able to see you personally and express our state's desire for close ties 234
is our utmost honor. We dare not complain of any hardships. 235
[State Letter] 236
Which one of you is the famous Marquis Mozi, the top ranked fighter on Langya Hall's list? 237
Our kingdom's Marquis Mozi has always admire the scenery of the Great Liang, 238
plus the fact that he wanted to give an offering to Imperial Consort Shu, 239
that's why, he was allowed by our king 240
to be included in the emissary troupe and to travel with us. 241
Unfortunately, 242
he is not sufficiently blessed. 243
After only arriving for a few days, he could not withstand dysentery 244
and had to return home first. 245
We hope you would accept any lack of etiquette. 246
The water isn't clean? 247
How can a strong martial arts fighter get sick so easily? 248
Yes, we are not afraid for Your Majesty to laugh at us, but Marquis Mozi had been in seclusion for a long time. 249
Even our king doesn't know the real state of his health now. 250
In allowing him to travel with us this time, although there was a bit of oversight, 251
it wasn't did on purpose. May Your Majesty forgive us. 252
I think this Marquis Mozi is gravely ill. 253
In his return to your kingdom this time, don't your ruler plan to 254
nurse him well? 255
Yes. Our Majesty also felt that he was a bit lax with him before. 256
We surely will restrain him more from now on. 257
[Memorial Tablet for the deceased Imperial Consort Shu of Great Liang] 258
[Memorial Tablet for the deceased Imperial Consort Shu of Great Liang] 259
[Memorial Tablet for the deceased Imperial Consort Shu of Great Liang] 260
Your Lady Majesty, I already said before 261
that Donghai sending people here is not really some big thing. 262
It's just building an offering hall 263
and expressing their yearning for the dead using their kingdom's practice. 264
Even His Majesty didn't personally attend it. 265
There is really no need for Your Lady Majesty to worry about this matter. 266
Yes, elder brother is right. 267
I really worried unnecessarily. 268
We will no longer have to worry about 269
someone who died 7 years ago. 270
Your mother left a letter for you before she died. 271
Are you really not going to read it at all? 272
Although I haven't been through a lot of things, 273
I also am not an idiot who would allow people to use me. 274
My had been blinded by her nonsense grudges for 20 years. 275
Before she died, she even got used by you two. 276
Did you two came here today to force me to walk the same path as hers? 277
The late Grand Madam was not wise in her ways and actions. 278
But, Young Prince, as her son, 279
do you really believe that her grudges were nonsense? 280
What happened back then, the investigation was clear, 281
I have to admit that 282
my late father was not wronged. 283
Even if he wasn't wronged, 284
but as a royal prince, how could he be sentenced to death? 285
He could have been exiled, imprisoned or sent to guard the Imperial Tomb. 286
But what happened in the end? 287
Because of a stubborn and heartless father, 288
a Crown Prince Brother who only obeys the Royal Father, 289
and Prince Changlin who wanted to kill him so as to show forth his military might, 290
Since then, you were born without a father. 291
Even now, your mother's body were abandoned in the desolate outskirts. 292
What nonsense are you talking about? 293
My mother... 294
Impossible. 295
Pingjing promised me, he promised he would help me. 296
On what basis do you believe the Second Young Master of Chang Lin Manor 297
would place your matters in his heart? 298
On what basis do you believe that he would 299
do his best to help you in your matters? 300
You were clothed and fed well since you were young 301
You don't carry that much hatred as your mother did. 302
But I believe that you do have a lot of anger within you at this moment. 303
Because it is human nature to feel that way. 304
All of them are high and lofty, 305
it seems that they have every reason to be righteous. 306
They can be generous and forgiving or stern whenever they feel like it. 307
But for you, you never had that choice or that power. 308
Other than waiting for their decision, there's nothing you can do. 309
Shut up! 310
Doesn't Young Prince want to be a person like His Majesty and Elder Prince Chang Lin? 311
They have power. 312
They have the position. 313
They are able to dictate everything. They can determine the fate of others. 314
Even if Young Prince bear no grudges, 315
I firmly believe that you are not willing to be a miserable person without any accomplishment like this. 316
Because you are the descendant of the past emperor. You are a son of the Xiao family. 317
How come Xiao Pingjing can be this reckless and arrogant 318
while you can only stand on the border of the imperial palace and silently look up to them? 319
This letter records how your father begged very hard 320
just to survive 321
and how your mother felt so inferior and unable to lift her head up when she is in the palace. 322
Is it not you do not want to be people like your parents? 323
You think that hiding here in your manor, not talking or doing anything, 324
breathing silently as if you are dead, 325
you can already be different from them? 326
Just read it. 327
Young Prince, fear is the greatest enemy of a human heart. 328
Kill it and you can become a person above others. 329
Second Young Master. 330
- Take me to Xiao Yuanqi. -Yes. 331
Yuanqi, it's me, Pingjing. 332
Coming. 333
I've asked around. 334
Your mother was sent to be buried by the inner palace officer. 335
Even though there is no mark, we know the approximate location. 336
These past days, I kept looking for a chance to mention it to His Majesty. 337
But afterwards, something happened at home. 338
Hence... 339
I understand. 340
People like me, a lowly offender, 341
will naturally just get mentioned if remembered. 342
If you forgot about me, it's fine. 343
I can understand that you are shaken up by this great change that happened in your life. 344
But ask your conscience, 345
it was because there was a bad seed that's why there was a bad fruit. 346
The punishment issued by His Majesty, 347
is appropriate. 348
My father died as a criminal. 349
His Majesty was still willing to confer me a marquis title 350
and provide for me and my mother here in the capital. 351
What he did was indeed appropriate. 352
I just 353
don't have enough blessings 354
to enjoy fortune and glory. 355
Right from the start, 356
he should have evicted us from the palace, 357
and eliminate any ambition or wishful thinking. 358
We could have just relied on each other to survive 359
and wish for a good ending. 360
I asked my father. 361
Everything was very clear regarding that old case. Nothing was unclear. 362
It was your mother who held that bitterness in her heart, 363
and turned His Majesty's grace into a opportunity for vengeance. 364
You are usually sensible and balanced. 365
Can you not understand? 366
If His Majesty is so full of grace and mercy, 367
why couldn't he let my father live? 368
The later Emperor was still alive. How could His Majesty make the decision? 369
Moreover, you've read the case report, 370
The Prince of Laiyang committed a crime that was only punishable by death. 371
Really? 372
If Father wasn't 373
the legitimate son of the late Emperor, as with His Majesty, 374
maybe he would have survived and not die. 375
Xiao Yuanqi, what are you saying? 376
My Lord, this way, please. 377
You and I are brothers of the same clan, we have known each other for years, 378
I thought I understand you. 379
Even though your mother has committed many evil deeds, 380
I never doubted that you knew this beforehand. 381
Do you know why? 382
Because you believed and trusted in me. 383
That's right. 384
I believe that you are innocent, 385
I believe that you can differentiate right from wrong. 386
But what did you mean by what you said just now? 387
Don't tell me in your heart, His Majesty was hypocritical in his care and concern for you? 388
And what happened to your father was a consequence of the fight for the throne? 389
- I didn't mean that. - Then what did you mean? 390
I also don't know what's happening to me. 391
But Pingjing, since you were young, you have had the support and care of your father and elder brother. 392
I've lived an orphan's life that could rely on no one. 393
You cannot understand how I feel. 394
His Majesty has considered that you are of the royal family, 395
he has discussed several times with the court ministers, so that 396
he wanted to come up with a solution for you to live. 397
- If he knew what you have said just now- - Pingjing. 398
I was confused so I blabbered nonsense. 399
There is no need to let His Majesty know about this. 400
I have always hope to get affirmation from His Majesty. 401
You know this more than others. 402
Of course I know. 403
Verbal decree from His Majesty. Xiao Yuanqi is to enter the Palace to meet with His Majesty. 404
Luckily when you were talking nonsense, 405
I was the only one who heard. 406
