[Nirvana in Fire 2: The Wind Blows in Chang Lin] 3
[Episode 14] 4
Your subject, Xiao Yuanqi, greets Your Majesty. 5
Yuanqi, what your mother did, 6
has anyone explained it fully with you? 7
Yes, I understand now. 8
Among the five sons of the late Emperor, only me and your father came from the same mother. 9
But the crime he did then 10
brought danger to the borders and countless deaths. 11
It could not be pardoned. 12
I've already asked them to allow you to review the imperial edict decree made by the late Emperor. 13
What are your thoughts? 14
My mother was a classical example of a house wife, her husband was everything to her. 15
She acted based on personal grudges and didn't care about right or wrong. 16
Since young, I was educated in the Imperial colleague. 17
After ascertaining what she had done, it is really hard for me to argue on her behalf. 18
But, Your Majesty, 19
no matter what crimes she committed, she is still my birth mother. 20
Please be merciful. Let me retrieve and bury her remains, 21
to let her rest in peace. 22
Yuanqi, your mother was full of hatred. 23
She murdered Consort Shu and endangered the imperial line. 24
You are not implicated by her crime 25
only because of your royal bloodline. 26
Do you understand this point? 27
Yes, I understand. 28
As a grandson of the late Emperor, according to etiquette, 29
you should not bury a criminal. 30
If you insist on letting His Majesty be merciful and make an exception, 31
then you must first severe your ties with the imperial family. 32
You can only choose 1 between these 2 choices. 33
You must think about it carefully. 34
Eldest Uncle... 35
Your Majesty! 36
Mother gave me life and raised me. 37
I owe father my bloodline. 38
How am I to choose between the two? 39
I really don't know how I am to choose. 40
Enough. If you can't choose, then I'll choose for you. 41
Your mother's crime cannot be pardoned so she can only be simply buried far from the capital. 42
You cannot establish a memorial tablet nor make any offerings. 43
The Marquis of Laiyang will be disennoble to third rank. 44
Yuanqi, I am allowing you 3 months to mourn in your manor. 45
After 3 months, you must not disobey the rules again. 46
His Majesty has given his mercy. 47
Yuanqi, thank His Majesty for his mercy. 48
Does Young Prince not wish 49
to mourn for your mother anymore? 50
Yes, I am useless. 51
Not only can people come and go in this manor, 52
I couldn't even protect 53
the life of my own mother. 54
If you came to kill me, just do it. 55
Kill you? Why should I kill you? 56
That High Priest Puyang, that future of Great Liang, 57
is connected with you. 58
If I kill you, then it cannot be carried out. 59
Your life is very precious. 60
No matter what your plans are, 61
I will never believe them. 62
You have no reason to help me. 63
You are still half a Donghai person. 64
If our kingdom can benefit from it, 65
will this reason be enough? 66
Donghai plans to gain advantage from me? 67
It's just, the current you, 68
is not qualified to ask such a question. 69
That day, you said that 70
there is a lot of room for improvement in my cultivation. 71
How then can I improve? 72
Useless garbage. Stand up! 73
Give up on this idea. 74
You will never have this opportunity. 75
If you want to look for death, then tell me early on, 76
saves me the trouble of staying in the Capital for you. 77
You parents are both criminals. 78
You are destined to have no position 79
in Great Liang's court. 80
Your only hope 81
is to learn martial arts with me. 82
Get up! 83
Pingjing, even though Pingzhang placed you under my command, 84
to be honest, there's really no need for you to help with the daily patrols around the Palace. 85
If you find it boring just find some place to rest. 86
If there's anything I'll have someone come call you. 87
Brother Xun. 88
When your father died, how old were you? 89
Five... why are you asking after this all of a sudden? 90
I'm used to having my father and brother support me. 91
I've never thought about what it's like to be all alone. 92
I know. Everyone's dotted and indulged you since you were little. 93
Why, aren't you satisfied? 94
No, it's not that... 95
I went to visit Yuanqi today. 96
His family has suffered a great disaster, it's bound to be difficult. 97
No matter how much other people can understand his position, the most important part is himself. 98
whether he can really find his own way out. 99
I hope so. 100
But I think I said too much today. I hope he doesn't think too much of it. 101
Don't worry. Time will heal all wounds. 102
I'm sure he will recover. Don't worry. 103
Everyone wishes to avoid this manor as much as possible. 104
There would be no danger if you wish to stay a few more days. 105
The Emperor of Great Liang has assigned envoys to accompany and to pay a return visit to Dong Hai. 106
When the time comes they'll want to meet me face to face to confirm that I've returned to Dong Hai. 107
More over Jinling city is not a place for me to linger, 108
it is time for me to return. 109
According to what my mother said in her will, 110
I can call you as my uncle on the mother's side from Donghai. 111
Yes. 112
Uncle, rest assured I will practice diligently. 113
There is one thing that Puyang Ying is correct about. 114
What I need the most now, is strength and patience. 115
Although we are just using each other, 116
but that Puyang Ying, ultimately 117
is far different from you and me. 118
He doesn't care about anything or anyone. 119
He is purely out for revenge. 120
You need to understand that point. 121
Understood. 122
Elder Prince! 123
The cabinet sent you a report. 124
Uncle Yuan, did you not say it wrongly? 125
It's not a military report? 126
No, it is a cabinet report. 127
Why will a cabinet report be sent to our Chang Lin Manor? 128
- Pingzhang, say it. - It is the name list of the members of the Northern Yan envoy troupe. 129
Their 5th Prince will personally come to Jinling this time. 130
Norther Yan's 5th prince is their emperor's legitimate son. 131
Looks like the status of their civil war is far 132
worse than what we know. 133
But how can a cabinet report be sent to the Chang Lin Manor? 134
The escort for a prince serving as an envoy is expected to be more than the usual. 135
The person escorting this His Imperial Highness Prince Hui 136
is the 3rd son of Elder Prince Hanhai of Northern Yan, 137
Tuoba Yu. 138
Tuoba Yu? The heir of Hanhai sword? 139
He is only 26 years old. 140
but already ranks 5th on Langya Hall's list of martial masters. 141
It's as if a new rule has been set in the cabinet, 142
as soon a person on the Langya list appears, 143
they automatically send it to our manor. 144
Say, what's happening to Jinling recently? 145
Duan Tongzhou, Marquis Mozi, Tuoba Yu, 146
Langya-ranked top fighters are coming into the capital one after another. 147
It's as if someone is masterminding all of this 148
making it look like the works of the gods. Deliberately pushing them forward. 149
Purposefully arranged... is there such a possibility? 150
Uncle Yuan, is Pingjing in the manor? 151
He seemed he to have gone out. 152
As soon as Dong Hai's issue is resolved this boy has gone wandering again. 153
What are you looking for him for? 154
I want to give him something to do. 155
Prince Hui of Northan Yan and Tuobo Hao's convey have passed Meiling (Mei Ridge). 156
Yes, shifu. That's what Mr Duan's note said. 157
The envoy troup's name list was just received a few days ago, 158
yet they're already half way here. 159
Looks like Northern Yan is a little eager. 160
Shifu, should I let Mr Duan keep a closer eye on them? 161
Au contraire. 162
Prince Hui will not experience any trouble on the way. 163
Tuoba Yu is no ordinary warrior either. 164
Tell them to come back first and wait for my orders near the Capital. 165
Yes. 166
Put more force into your right hand, more. 167
Good, continue. 168
Keep your shoulders straight, steady. 169
Steady. 170
Good. 171
- Good... - Aiyah... :'( 172
Seems easier said than done isn't it. 173
No rush, as long as you practice there'll be improvements. 174
Again. 175
Understood, you may leave. 176
Hold it tight. 177
Your Majesty, the Chancellor as arrived as summoned and is waiting in the main hall. 178
and is waiting in the main hall. 179
Oh, correct, I summoned him to report back on Northern Yan. 180
I actually forgot. 181
Try by yourself for a bit. 182
It's quite warm this year. 183
The flowers have bloomed well, this courtyard so filled with Spring cheer. 184
I'm somewhat disinclined to move. 185
It is just your elder brother, why not bring him here to talk. 186
Yes, your Majesty. 187
Is it much better. 188
Didn't you say your elder brother gave you some things to do? 189
Why are you still so idle? 190
It's nothing. My brother said that I have many acquaintances, 191
and wanted me to gather some intelligence on Northern Yan. 192
You have many acquaintances? 193
Yes, I know quite a number of the people looking after Langya Hall pigeon coups all over the place. 194
Even Marquis Mozi has come before, whats so special about Tuoba Yu. 195
But brother has a cautious and thoughtful personality. 196
The House of Tuoba is most prestigious family in Northern Yan, with many part of the court and nobles. 197
I thought that according to Langya Hall's rules, Hanhai sword would not be allowed on the list. 198
Tuoba Yu is only the third son of Prince Hanhai, 199
he does not have a position in court. 200
So what you're saying is that Langya Hall only answers questions out side of the Courts. 201
It wishes to separate itself from the courts, 202
but as things stands it's very difficult. 203
As the saying goes, be accomplished in the arts, sell to the Kings and Lords. 204
There are countless ties between those who have peerless skills and the Courts of many kingdoms. 205
How can it be so easy to separate. 206
I wonder what made the Old Master change this rule. 207
Northan Yan has sent the lineal Prince* to negotiate the peace treaty. T/N: lineal Prince - Prince birthed by the Empress/Queen 208
The conditions they've set also shows much sincerity. 209
Now that this fifth Prince has been ennobled Imperial Prince of Hui, 210
according to our Great Liang's etiquette, 211
the person to receive the guests must then be one grade higher. 212
Perhaps, consider giving the Crown Prince some experience. 213
Good! Yuanshi, that was a good shot. 214
Thank you father. 215
Look how young the Crown Prince is, there is no need for experience now. 216
Just allow Young Prince Changlin to take care of 217
the daily accompaniment of the guests. 218
Yes. 219
While the peace negotiations are not military matters and is headed by the cabinet, 220
but since Pingzhang is handling the reception, 221
he cannot be in the dark. 222
From today, send a copy of the negotiation progress 223
reports to Changlin manor. 224
Yes, your Majesty. 225
Look at that. 226

Reports the Cabinet sent today. 228
Brother, the weather is good today, 229
aren't you going to take da-shao out for walk? 230
Do you think I'm you? So idle. 231
That's right!? Why are you so idle. 232
What happened to the things I told you to do? 233
I've sorted them all out, everything's here. 234
Since you've sorted it, you must have read them right? 235
What thoughts do you have on the current situation of Northern Yan? 236
Things seem inevitable. 237
It's like a flood breaking through the dam, without a great power there is no way to stop it. 238
There is not many opportunities for the Northern Yan court to reverse the tide. 239
As it is they can only see if this newly made Prince Hui can establish the situation. 240
But then no matter how Northern Yan changes it does not affect our Great Liang. 241
Watch the fire from across the water is the best option. 242
And Pingjing... 243
Pingjing! I still have things for you to do! 244
- Second Young Master. - Deputy Sun 245
I thought you weren't going to come. 246
I said I would practice with the Capital patrols how could I go back on my words? 247
This way. 248
Who are they? 249
They're people from the 7 horse farms outside the passes. 250
They come once a year to deliver new years gifts 251
because the distance is far, they usually stay until April before returning. 252
New years gifts? 253
- Gifts to who? - They supply war horses the court, 254
they more or less have some connections in the Capital. 255
Sending some gifts around in the new years in natural. 256
Go to Fulai Hotel, where they're staying 257
and give them a warning. 258
This is the Imperial Capital, not wild plains beyond the Passes. We don't need a stampede. 259
If they get into any trouble, it's just more work for the Capital patrols. 260
Yes. 261
This way, please. 262
These are the final conditions settled upon by the cabinet? 263
In they're eyes 264
being able to settle on these conditions in the alliance between Yan and Liang is already very good. 265
The cabinet is situated far away in the Capital. There are many things they're not as clear of as us. 266
It's not their fault. 267
But I know what father has always wanted. 268
This is such a good opportunity, 269
we cannot pass it up. 270
- Shifu - Director 271
How is it? 272
The return date for the 7 horse farms has been confirmed for April 16th. 273
Should I follow them back out to the fields as usual this year, or 274
stay in the Capital and await orders. 275
The Northern Yan envoys have yet to arrive, how things will progress in the Capital is not clear. 276
We will wait. 277
Yes. 278
It's late. Go and rest. 279
These are to be submitted in the Imperial Court tomorrow. 280
I will take some time. 281
I'm not tired. I keep you company. 282
Your Majesty, the borders between us and Yan are separated by the southern ridges of Mt Chengwu. 283
Northern Yan initiated the move to retreat out of the northern mountains, 284
personally escort their Princess to enter into a marriage of alliance and to sign a peace treaty 285
to never launch a military attack on us. The Cabinet feels that on the north, 286
there's already Da Yu, a strong enemy of ours, 287
a peace treat between us and Yan can relieve some of the pressures on the northern borders. 288
It's of great benefit to us. I hope that Your Majesty will agree. 289
Based on your words, 290
this matter concerns the military. 291
Royal Brother, what's your view on this matter? 292
Your Majesty, I have no objections with regards to the peace treaty. 293
But as to the conditions made by Northern Yan- 294
Old Prince, the conditions regarding the marriage alliance and retreat of the army, 295
both are very good. 296
Minister Xun, you may not know this. The southern ridges of Mt Chengwu 297
is actually of gentle slope, it's not mountainous regions at all. 298
Their military camp are originally encamped at the northern ridges of Mt Chengwu, 299
so it's not considered retreating out of Mt Chengwu. 300
Your Majesty, if we disregard this non-existent condition, 301
Northern Yan just wanted to marry a princess into our country. 302
I don't know what's your view on this matter. 303
I understand. 304
Northern Yan put forth this just because they want to marry a princess into our country. 305
They can but we have to add our condition. 306
The Northern Yan currently is having internal strife. Who knows if we get in trouble because of this. 307
You said it right. 308
Your Majesty, it has not been easy to breed good army horses. 309
Ours cannot be compared with the army horses of Da Yu and Northern Yan. 310
The private horse stables have been buying Wanxi horses from Xi Jing and Ye Qin. 311
After breeding and taming them, they are then supplied to the Military. 312
The cost is very high and difficult to breed them continuously. 313
I feel that we should make use of this opportuniy 314
to request 500 stallions from Northern Yan, and breed them in the waterlands of Lanzhou. 315
Also to open horse stable in the name of the Imperial Court, and these will be managed by the military camp of Chang Lin in Lanzhou. 316
The situation will change drastically in a few years. 317
I have drafted a copy of the details. 318
Please read it, Your Majesty. 319
Good suggestion. 320
How do the Cabinet feel about this? 321
Your Majesty, the army horses 322
has always been managed by the Military. 323
For Chang Lin Camp in Lanzhou to manage them, I;m afraid it's not appropriate. 324
It's just a mere suggestion. If you feel that there's a better person 325
than Lanzhou camp, please feel free to 326
recommend that to His Majesty. 327
I don't feel that it's inappropriate for Lanzhou Camp to manage it. 328
Moreover, we can discuss the details at a later date. 329
Minister Xun, the Cabinet shall be in charge of discussing the details with Northern Yan. 330
The suggestion given by Heir to Chang Lin, you have to add that in. 331
I obey. 332
Father, I asked Xiao'xue to supervise him before I left. 333
Now that Xiao'xue can't sit still and have left, 334
we can't blame Pingjing for not seeing this through. 335
You have been helping me since you were fifteen years old. 336
He is now 21 years old, yet he's still not sensible. 337
Who is it? 338
Me. 339
Father, elder Brother, why are you here? 340
If we come back tomorrow, 341
do you plan to sleep till then? 342
I was only catching a nap. 343
Moreover, what older brother has asked me to read, I have finished reading them all. 344
You have read them? 345
Good. Tell me. 346
There's nothing really interesting 347
but this one. Regarding the condition given by Northern Yan, 348
what retreating out of the northern ridges? It's all bull. 349
- Pingzhang. - Yes. 350
The condition we presented in court today, 351
Though Minister Xun didn't say anything, he actually objects to it. 352
But improving on our war horses is of great benefit to the imperial court. 353
Why does the Cabinet object to it? 354
What the Cabinet objects is your suggestion 355
for Lanzhou Military camp to manage the war horses. 356
Let's not talk about it. 357
Maybe I'm just over thinking it. 358
Subtitles and Timing provided by Gone With The Shirt Team at Viki.com 359
The Imperial Court wants to have their own stables? 360
Yes. 361
After Old Prince added this condition, 362
the Cabinet, Military and Revenue Bureau are in urgent discussion. 363
That's good. 364
Let the ministers have their discussion, 365
I can have the time to think how to make good use of this chance. 366
You go and check where the people from border stables are staying. 367
Yes. 368
This is where Father puts the official documents. 369
Be careful and not make a mess. 370
Brother, what do you want me to find? 371
The list of purchase of military horses by the Imperial Court over the years. 372
Looks like Father wasn't overthinking on the strange attitude of the Cabinet. 373
You only have two days. Don't be lazy this time. 374
Minister Xun, be careful. 375
I'm alright. 376
Lanzhou camp. 377
The changes suggested by astrology were indeed accurate. 378
What does High Priest mean? 379
The celestial body message is very clear this time. 380
Not only my Baishen Sect, 381
but I believe that the imperial astronomer can also see it very clearly. 382
It's just that no one dares to say the truth. 383
Because I am discussing it with you privately, it is just fine. 384
But to say it openly, I will never admit that I have said these words. 385
The general's star is too bright. It's brightness is already overshadowing that of the purple star (the Emperor). 386
Its fortune is dark and gloomy. 387
That suggests bad fortune. 388
That depends on whose fortune you are asking. For the bearer of the general star, 389
this fortune is a good one. 390
I have always cultivated to pay respect to the gods. 391
I usually do not interfere in government affairs. 392
But being patronized by Her Majesty, how can I just stand back and do nothing? 393
I am going to give you some advice. 394
If they are able to control the stables now, they would be able to control the grains in the future. 395
Once His Majesty gets used to it, isn't the rule of a military official not interfering in political affairs 396
just be empty words? 397
Minister Xuan, I will take my leave. 398
High Priest, please wait! 399
I heard from Her Majesty 400
that you have great foresight and is someone that can be trusted. 401
For this current situation, 402
do you have any unique resolution? 403
It is not proper to discuss this in the corridor. 404
My Qian Tian Court just happen to have picked some good tea leaves earlier. 405
If Minster Xun has the time, do you want to taste a few cups? 406
Okay. Okay. Okay. 407
How about it? 408
Older Brother, all are here. 409
These are the projects that the government funds every year and the total amount. 410
And these are the military budget including the number of battle horses that each military camp 411
requests from the government each year. 412
And these are records from the Ministry of War noting the 413
military equipment and battle horses they bought every year. 414
9 out of 10 of them came from those 7 horse stables. 415
Brother, look here. The amount of one horse of the Yuebei Horse Stable 416
is actually more expensive than the good horse breeds our Chang Lin army directly bought from Dayuan. 417
Also, here. Four years ago, there no events that happened in their borders. 418
Yet, they bought horses during the spring and autumn seasons. 419
Could it be that the reason the cabinet is showing an ambiguous stand 420
is somewhat related to this? 421
That's right. The owner of the horse stable, the local officials, 422
the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of War, all their interests are connected and they have interactions in several levels. 423
How could it not reach the cabinet? 424
Let us dig deep in this direction. We surely will dig out several corrupt officials. 425
Who told you that I am going to dig deep? 426
Didn't you let me investigate all these for that reason? 427
I just want to confirm 428
the reason why the cabinet was against father and my suggestion. 429
You also have locked yourself here for 2 days. Clean this place up. 430
Go look for your friends and have fun. 431
Older brother, what do you mean by that? 432
Are we just disregarding the possible existence of collusion for profits 433
in this matter? 434
How do you plan to interfere? 435
Local governance and the six ministries are all considered political government affairs. 436
The rules of our Great Liang states that a military official must not get involved in political affairs. 437
Presently, there is still no major mishaps that has happened. 438
Secondly, the cabinet hasn't openly refused father's suggestion yet. 439
Thirdly, while we haven't received any orders from His Majesty, 440
what right does our House of Chang Lin have to secretly investigate government officials? 441
- I thought father can-- - Pingjing, 442
it is exactly because father has awe-inspiring fame and 443
military power, that's why our House of Chang Lin cannot just do as we please. 444
If we don't even know how to restrain ourselves and just do what we want, 445
how can we blame others for having the wrong opinion? 446
No matter how beautifully sounding the words of the House of Chang Lin is, 447
but all those are just suggestions. 448
But Northern Yan's Prince Hui will be entering the capital in a few days, 449
how can the cabinet find another more suitable choice than the Lanzhou Military Brigade? 450
I believe that Minister had meticulously thought about it too. 451
The conditions stated by the Northern Yan 452
is very beneficial to our kingdom. 453
The cabinet doesn't really have a reason to refuse it. 454
Honestly, I also feel that 455
these 500 high quality horses 456
are very enticing 457
and shouldn't' be refused. 458
Compared to the stability of the future government of the Crown Prince, 459
these are all just minor benefits in the present time. 460
But what minister said is very right. On the outside, it is indeed hard to refuse them. 461
What is important is what is their private intentions. 462
Private intentions? 463
Providing war horses to the government 464
is a huge source of profits. 465
Seeing that this source will be cut off soon, I'm sure that people who are unhappy about it 466
won't just be you. 467
I know that what older brother said was very reasonable. 468
Our House of Chang Lin is not the Imperial Censor Office that receives all kinds of news and reports. 469
We don't have the right to censor government officials. 470
We cannot investigate any officials just by intuitions. 471
If we disregard the limits of our position and just investigate anything that we want, 472
even if our intention is good, 473
it might become a special power in the long run and destroy order. 474
But going back to it, 475
we clearly have already found something yet he want me to act as if I didn't see anything. 476
It is not that hard to investigate it. People from the stable are all in the capital now. 477
We just had to follow this lead and track for more clues, we can then find the truth already. 478
So annoying. As long as it is a government matter, 479
it can't be helped to face some conflicts. 480
Some looks as if they are unsolvable. 481
That's why, for me, it is still in jianghu where worries are far away, more comfortable, and carefree. 482
Taking drastic measure to deal with the situation? 483
Stop Prince Hui from entering the capital. 484
How are we going to stop it? 485
From what I know, 486
the owners of the seven large horse stables are currently in the capital. 487
What High Priest means is 488
to use the horse stables? 489
Indeed. 490
But based the details of the negotiations with Northern Yan 491
is a cabinet secret. It cannot be leaked to the public. 492
If anyone knows about this-- 493
Thank you to Her Majesty's great favor, the amount of disciples here in my Qian Tian Court 494
is quite flourishing. 495
The sharing of information is also quite more convenient than other places. Minster, don't worry. 496
I surely will not involve you into it. 497
His Majesty has already agreed 498
for Yan and Liang to reconcile. 499
This is the emperor's intention and also a matter that's been decided upon. 500
If you were unable to handle it properly 501
and incite a war between the two kingdoms, 502
- I fear that-- - It is impossible for the current Yan 503
to wage any war with our Great Liang. 504
Minister Xun, the usual Northern Yan will definitely not agree with the conditions 505
that the House of Chang Lin added. 506
But do you know why Elder Prince is very sure that it will work this time? 507
Lin Xi, you are considered an outsider. 508
Listen if my idea is correct. 509
If the government has its rules, our jianghu also have our ways. 510
Older brother is unwilling to investigate the government officials. No problem. 511
I am considered to be partly from jianghu anyway. 512
If I secretly investigate the fishy dealings regarding these matters, I wouldn't be breaking any rule, right? 513
If you say it that way, it sounded reasonable. 514
But my older brother wouldn't permit me to squander my time on this. 515
It is impossible for me to dispatch people from our Chang Lin Manor. 516
I only have a pair of eyes. 517
I cannot really not move for 12 hours a day, right? 518
Didn't you say that you know a lot of people? 519
I can't' really send out people from the pigeon house, right? 520
I know who to look for already! 521
Thanks. 522
Stop dilly-dallying. Hurry. 523
Customers, please come inside. 524
Just as lord guessed, 525
after the major horse stables got the news, they all started to be anxious. 526
When we had our secret meeting in Fulai Inn yesterday, 527
I just slightly coerced them 528
and they already are unable to sit at ease. 529
Tomorrow night, there will be 2 more groups of people that will be coming. I believe that by then, 530
we will reach a unified stand. 531
But the Patrol Guards have been monitoring us. 532
What about the House of Chang Lin? 533
No activities at all. 534
They don't seem to care. 535
The heir of Chang Lin is really a very careful person. 536
But...yesterday in Fulai Inn, 537
I saw Chang Lin's Second Young Master. 538
- Xiao Pingjing? - Indeed. 539
Does high priest want me to create troubles for him? 540
No need. 541
Just let him be. What I fear more is him not doing anything. 542
Yes. 543
