[The Young Warriors]
>> Episode 11 <<
Frankly speaking, Your Highness,
if not for the evidence, no one would expect the loyal Yang Family
to have done something so despicable.
However, it's not surprising that people would inevitably covet the imperial treasure.
Although the chief culprit is Yang's Son Six,
Yang Ye, being the father, cannot escape responsibility for the crime.
Your Highness, pardon your lowly official for being narrow minded.
Gold and riches always tend to stir vain hopes and covetous thoughts.
On top of that, the Yang Family are the Northern Han capitulated generals.
Maybe Yang's Son Six is just following commands.
It looks like Prime Minister already has your own views on the matter.
People can lie, but evidence can't.
Yang's Son Six snatching the treasure is the first.
His killing soldiers and fleeing, second. This is ironclad evidence.
Men!
Bring out General Yang for me.
Greetings Eighth Virtuous Prince.
Dispense with the formalities, General Yang.
- Men! Bring a seat! - Yes.
P-p-please wait.
Your Highness, Yang Ye is being charged with a severe crime.
How can he be treated on a same level as Your Highness?
Prime Minister! I have my own ideas.
I think that you should take your leave now.
While handling a case, I don't want people next to me giving advice. Bring a seat
Your lowly minister understands. I am taking my leave now.
Please take a seat, General Yang.
Since we know each other, let's cut to the chase, General Yang.
I believe General Yang is absolutely not someone greedy for riches and glory.
Regarding the case of Yang's Son Six killing troops and fleeing with stolen treasure,
I believe there must be hidden facts.
I want to find out the truth.
I wonder what your explanation is, General Yang.
Because I have not taught my Son Six well,
his actions and way of thinking do have differences from most people.
His actions may even be unconventional,
but his innate nature isn't bad.
He gets into trouble because of his juvenile playfulness.
I dare to use pledge head as a guarantee that he is not at all likely to be blinded by greed,
coveting the imperial treasure without care for his family's safety,
and committing such an outrageous act of treason.
Your lowly minister believes that there must be hidden reasons in this case.
I also believe what General Yang has just said.
Thank you for believing in me, Your Highness.
General Yang, everyone knows of your loyalty to the Song Empire,
and Madame Yang has a firm grasp of right and wrong.
I believe that a son taught by you two will absolutely not fail to distinguish right and wrong,
go astray from the right way, defy his superiors and rebel.
Aya!
I fear that this child, young, frivolous and lacking experience, might have been used by others.
I promise you to investigate thoroughly to bring out the truth and give justice to the Yang Family.
Thank you, Your Highness.
Please quickly rise.
[Amethyst Imperial Hall]
- Greetings, Your Majesty. - Royal nephew, you don't need much ceremony.
Rushing over here is a tedious task.
Your Majesty, I heard about the Yang Family's imprisonment.
I had my doubts, so I rushed back to the palace to understand more about the situation.
I already knew that I and my nephew thought alike, putting the Nation first.
Hearing about the Yang Family, you inevitably had to rush back to the Capital.
I am really happy that you returned.
No matter what, there is someone with me who I can trust completely to discuss this matter.
I have no talent, but to be able to share His Majesty's burden, I will not refuse.
More importantly, this issue involves loyal soldiers and important officials in court.
As your nephew, I cannot step away from these issues.
We must investigate and solve the case.
Actually, there are both witnesses and material evidence.
Yang's Son Six and Princess Chai have fled to escape punishment.
These are indisputable facts.
With such pressing matters, I think Eighth Virtuous Prince should help His Majesty develop a plan.
Without affecting the troops' morale,
how do we punish the Yang Family as a warning to others?
Do you know what you've just said, Prime Minister Pan?
You also know that General Yang's entire family are loyal unto death.
They are a role model of loyalty to the government for all the people.
If this issue isn't made clear by a thorough investigation,
how do you appease the masses?
There is strong evidence in my possession.
The witnesses and evidence that Prime Minister Pan invokes
are just an unproven treasure and some imperial guards who have no clue about the real situation.
How many things have happened and how much do you know?
Leaning merely on this
to condemn the Yang Family for stealing treasure and plotting treason,
how will public opinion be appeased?
Calm down, royal nephew.
Those are valid points you just raised,
but Prime Minister Pan cannot be blamed for everything.
He is just trying to act according to the law.
And now is not the time to blame each other.
Your Majesty's words are very true. Most pressing now is to uncover the truth
to avoid harming Your Majesty's name and prevent the loss of the people's faith.
For the Great Song Empire and for Your Majesty,
I will thoroughly investigate the case of Yang Family without a moment's delay,
and without passing off my responsibility.
I will definitely make this case clear.
Good. In that case you will be assisting me
to uncover the ins and outs of this case to the best of your ability.
A single spark can set fire to a prairie.
To prevent this matter from expanding even more and the implications growing,
we need to eliminate Princess Chai and Yang's Son Six immediately.
I, your lowly servant, have failed in my task and deserves to die.
I don't want your cheap life now.
Your lowly servant is incompetent.
I already searched all over the capital thoroughly,
including brothels and farmsteads, every possible place has been searched,
but I found no sign of those two.
What?
I believe that no one would dare hide them.
Maybe they already left the capital.
Impossible! They must still be in the capital
because now they desperately need to meet Eighth Virtuous Prince.
Fine,
I will help them.
[Eighth Virtuous Prince's Manor]
Greetings Eighth Virtuous Prince!
The Eighth Virtuous Prince you're looking for has been summoned to the Palace by His Majesty.
Kill!
[The Young Warriors]
Kill!!
Let's see where you run to!
Son Six.
Run quickly!
Chase! Chase! Chase!
Go!
- Chase! - Stop right there!
Quick!
Faster!
- Hurry. - That side!
Princess, please don't mind me.
Like this, I will only burden you and, in the end, none of us will escape.
You mustn't speak like that!
- They must be hiding in the reeds marsh. Quickly search! - Yes, sir.
Go! Go! Quickly go!
We have no other choice now.
Once escaping from this, we'll be able to get away.
Go!
- Search well! - Yes!
- They must not be let off! - Yes!
We searched everywhere but didn't find them.
Impossible, Yang's Son Six is severely wounded.
He can't run very far.
If I'm not wrong, they should be inside this stretch of reeds marsh.
Princess! Princess!
My lord, there is a suspicious small boat right over there!
Go!
What? You let them escape again.
Didn't I tell you to set a tight trap in Eighth Virtuous Prince's Manor?
You let such a good opportunity slip away. What are you doing?
Your lowly servant knows his mistake. Please, Your Majesty, give me another chance
to find them and bring their heads back.
I fear they will be more cautious and careful next time.
Such a good opportunity you've missed,
I am afraid you cannot find the two anymore.
- His Majesty! - Begone!
Yes.
He fainted, pour water!
You confess or not? Confess or not?
How are things? SChai, are you going to confess or not?
We are devoted and loyal to the Great Song.
I am being wronged... wronged!
Where is Princess Chai?
Are you going to talk or not?
If not, we are continuing.
Stop it!
Your Highness.
How can your getting confessions to false charges under torture help to solve the case?
Your highness, your lowly servant was acting on orders.
Your Highness, he is already dead.
Reporting, Your Majesty. Eighth Virtuous Prince is requesting an audience with you.
Relay this.
Relaying. His Majesty will see Eighth Virtuous Prince.
Greetings, Your Majesty.
What is it, royal nephew?
How is the investigation of the Northern Zhou rebel dregs progressing?
Your Majesty, I've stopped the imperial guards using torture to extort confessions,
and closely interrogated the Northern Zhou rebel dregs.
However, I did not discover any evidence of Princess Chai's intent to rebel.
No evidence of an intent to rebel?
Your Majesty, it seems like we have wrongly accused the Chai family this time.
This is strange.
Then why did they rob the treasure and then kill soldiers in order to escape?
What were they attempting to do?
This is beyond all comprehension.
Royal nephew, it appears that you must stay in the palace
and assist me in investigating this further.
Are you willing to do this?
I am willing to serve Your Majesty in this matter.
Okay, you can leave now.
Yes. I'm taking my leave.
Your Majesty, why have you urgently summoned me?
Renmei, I know that you are entirely loyal to me.
and that you do your utmost in any task I ask of you, without ulterior motives.
Hence, I have decided to let you
handle the matter regarding the Yang family.
Your Majesty.
You are the only person I trust.
Regarding the issue about Yang's Son Six,
I am extremely vexed and encumbered by it.
I don't want it to drag on any further, creating complications and becoming more and more troublesome.
That's why I want you to immediately arrest Yang's Son Six and bring him to justice.
Do you understand what I am saying?
I understand.
It's just that... Eighth Virtuous Prince—
I will take care of Eighth Virtuous Prince.
Just do a good job.
Remember this. You can use any tactics
but you must absolutely not harm anyone in the Yang family.
The ones I want are Yang's Son Six and Princess Chai.
I will do my utmost to make Yang's Son Six and Princess Chai resurface immediately
and bring them to justice.
Then I will patiently wait for your good news.
I will not let you down.
[The Young Warriors]
The entire family are loyal unto death.
- How could you treat them this way? - That's right.
I must go and take a look
to see what this Emperor is going to do to the Yang family.
No. You are injured. Let me go instead.
They are all good people and loyal subjects.
[Immediately kill the criminal]
They are all good people.
They are good people.
They are loyal subjects.
- You should release them. - That's right
[Kill the criminal]
Shut up. Scram!
These are imperial criminals. How could you say it's injustice so it's injustice?
- Men, listen to my orders. - Yes.
Take those who are creating a disturbance and beat them to death.
Stop.
General Pan. They are innocent.
Don't harm them.
General Yang, you currently are a prisoner.
You can't even protect your life and are you still butting in?
According to the Emperor's decree,
Yang's Son Six conspired with the Northern Zhou rebel Princess Chai,
embezzled treasure, intended to rebel and fled for fear of punishment.
Yang's entire family harbored a criminal, so they will all share the same punishment.
We are carrying out the Emperor's decree
to publicly whip and expose the entire Yang family as a warning to others.
Whoever dares to cause trouble
will be imprisoned.
Starting now,
take a Yang family member to be publicly whipped every ten minutes.
- Men. - Here.
General Yang. As the head of the Yang family,
Yang's Son Six did such a disgraceful deed.
Is there a problem with how you raised him?
If anyone needs to be beaten, shouldn't you be the first?
Sorry for offending you now.
Father.
- Stop the beating. - What are you doing?
You scoundrel! You are lower than a dog and pig!
The Yang family is loyal to Song.
How could you use this tactic to humiliate them?
Is there no heavenly law?
Aren't you using this despicable, shameless method to lure out Yang's Son Six and Princess Chai?
Just dream on.
Everyone, keep calm.
I am only only carrying out the Emperor's wish.
If Yang's Son Six has any humanity,
he'd turn himself in to the authorities to prevent his family suffering punishment because of him.
Yang's Son Six, have you seen this?
Your family is suffering because of you.
If you would rather be disloyal and unfilial,
then continue being a coward!
Princess!
How is the situation outside?
I cannot harm your whole family just because of one golden ax.
I cannot be that selfish.
What did they do to our family?
While in the market, I saw Pan Renmei and Pan Bao
escorting all of your family members.
They suffered lashings and insults.
How are my parents?
They were all flogged.
Pan Bao didn't let off even your youngest sister.
Hateful!
They did that to force us to immediately show ourselves and surrender.
This emperor... actually won't even let my family go.
Not only that. Even my uncles were all arrested and tortured.
A lot of Northern Zhou descendants are implicated already.
There are really too many innocent lives being sacrificed.
This matter must actually end now.
This matter started because of my Chai family.
Just let me alone bear responsibility.
Let's give the ax to the Emperor.
No. Even if you give him the ax,
just to cover this thing up and hold on to his throne, he definitely won't let us go.
This is our Chai family's matter.
I really can't bear to see the Yang family get dragged into this.
Princess!
This matter doesn't only concern your Chai family,
but it also concerns the safety of the whole country.
Right now, I... I actually so want to charge out
and kill those two evil men, Pan Bao and Pan Renmei, and rescue my family!
But I cannot be reckless.
We might fall into their trap just because of a moment of recklessness.
Do you understand?
Our Yang family has always been loyal to the Emperor and to Song.
But the country is greater than the Emperor.
When the son of Heaven commits a crime, he should be punished the same as the citizens.
What we must do now is to purge the emperor for the country's sake.
- To purge the emperor? - Right.
The only one who can help us now is Eighth Virtuous Prince.
But we've been looked for Eighth Virtuous Prince.
He may now be confined to the Palace by His Majesty.
Then let's break into the Palace. We must find him to give us justice.
In your current state, how are we going to trespass into the Palace?
I am not afraid of death so what is there to be afraid of?
Not even afraid of a mountain of blades or a sea of fire, what else is there to be afraid of?
What is that? What is that thing?
- It looks like a kite. - Really?
- Such a big kite? - Not right! They are assassins!
- Hurry and call for backup! - Hurry!
- Be careful. - Shoot!
Yang's Son Six and Princess Chai.
- They are criminals wanted by His Majesty. Arrest them! - Yes!
What happened?
- Your Highness. - Your Highness.
Your Highness, Yang's Son Six and Princess Chai are criminals wanted by His Majesty.
We were about to arrest them and let His Majesty deal with them.
Eighth Virtuous Prince, I and Yang's Son Six risked our lives to come here
to ask for your help in claiming justice.
All of you leave now.
I want to interrogate these two people alone.
Yes.
That can't be true. No way!
What did you say?
Just to get the throne, royal uncle actually
killed his own older brother, my father?
No. That's impossible.
This is totally impossible. He is not a cruel and ruthless person.
I swear that everything I said earlier is true.
If there's any disloyalty in it, any lies, any place where I falsely accuse His Majesty,
I am willing to be killed for it.
Your Highness, Uncle Mute in Chai Manor had always pretended to be mute and deaf
and endured a heavy responsibility.
He dared not tell Princess Chai the truth
because he feared that she would be killed to silence her.
Presently, if not because we faced a life and death crisis,
he wouldn't have told us the truth.
But with just your one-sided testimonies,
how can I believe you on something of this nature?
Based on this ax.
This... this is... the golden ax truncheon.
It's really the golden ax truncheon.
That's right.
At the time, my father personally saw Taizong killed his older brother.
That's why he took away the evidence for Taizong's crime.
So... so this matter...
is actually true.
Royal uncle, oh, royal uncle...
I have always respected and admired you.
I really never thought
that you were actually the murderer of my royal father!
To cover up the truth of him killing his older brother to get the throne,
His Majesty ordered us to be killed.
Just to force us to come out and hand him the golden ax,
he imprisoned my entire Yang family.
Your Highness, please give our Yang family justice.
If not because this matter involves the injustice that the Yang family is suffering right now,
I'd rather not know of this truth.
But don't you worry.
I definitely can't let the Yang family be falsely accused.
I surely will give you justice.
Moreover, this person killed his own older brother, killed my royal father!
He committed a disgraceful crime.
I will also let him give justice back to the people of this country!
[The Young Warriors]
Father, Mother, older bros,
your wounds are all still bleeding.
Is it very painful?
It's fine.
We can all endure it.
I am just worried about Son Six.
Pan Renmei sees our Yang family as a thorn in his eye.
He using his position to take revenge on personal grudges is also expected.
But this matter is being escalated too much,
what crime did Son Six really commit?
Older Bro Six has always been resourceful.
He surely won't fall into Pan Renmei and his son's tricks.
He must be safe.
He will surely think of a way to save us.
Eighth Virtuous Prince is here!
General Yang, please.
Madam Yang, please.
- Come. - Sai Hua.
Sis Eight.
- Mother! Father! - Son Six!
I was unfilial. I caused you to suffer.
Eighth Virtuous Prince.
- Are you alright? - Mother, I'm fine.
- Eighth Virtuous Prince. - General Yang, you have suffered.
Younger Bro Six, what really is going on?
Princess Chai and I asked Eighth Virtuous Prince to save everyone.
Everyone, don't worry.
I am here to get you all out.
Your Highness, is this a decree by His Majesty?
No. It's my decision.
General Yang, Madam Yang,
this time it was thanks to Son Six searching for Taizu's treasures that he found out
the fact that my royal father was deliberately murdered by royal uncle.
This—
The reason why His Majesty falsely accused me of trying to embezzle the treasure
and locked everyone up
is because Princess Chai and I were able to learn of this unmentionable secret.
- No— - Madam, General, don't worry.
Son Six would never commit treason.
His Majesty killed the past Emperor to steal his throne? This—
How can this be possible?
General Yang, this matter is a long story.
Let's just talk about it later.
- Please. - They can't be released!
Your Highness wants to release them, but do you have a written order from His Majesty?
You have my order.
Is that not enough?
What Yang's Son Six and everyone here committed is the crime of rebellion!
I was ordered to guard them.
If His Highness wants to release them, how do I explain that to His Majesty?!
You don't need to explain anything!
I will bear responsibility for everything!
General Yang, Madam Yang,
please!
Reporting to Your Majesty, Eighth Virtuous Prince just now released all the Yang family prisoners.
Why did Eighth Virtuous Prince release them?
It was because Yang's Son Six and Princess Chai sneaked into the inner palace.
I don't know what nonsense Eighth Virtuous Prince heard from them
but he actually released the whole Yang family.
Now that Eighth Virtuous Prince has interfered in this matter,
I don't know what to do anymore.
Prime Minister, should someone want to usurp power and the throne,
destabilizing the country.
Facing this kind of problem,
how do you think one should handle it?
Your Majesty, the mandate of the Heaven belongs to you.
Those who threaten the imperial power are going against the Heaven.
Your Majesty should right wrongs on behalf of Heaven
and exterminate all the rebels.
Disregarding close or distant family ties?
Yes.
To stabilize the Empire,
Your Majesty must harden your heart.
Regardless of family relations, kill without mercy.

[Brush, Ink, and Incense]
Greetings, Your Majesty.
Am I still Your Majesty?
Your Majesty, you sit on the throne everyday,
so everyday you are my Emperor and the Son of Heaven.
Fine.
Then, in my capacity of everyday Emperor, I ask both of you, my ministers,
when you encounter such a problem, how would you handle it?
[The Young Warriors]
If I may be so bold as to ask, Your Majesty,
Yang's Son Six currently holds former Emperor Taizu's golden ax truncheon.
He accuses Your Majesty of killing your older brother for the throne.
Did that happen?
Yang's Son Six is conceited and ignorant. He doesn't understand complex matters.
He clearly knew what he shouldn't have done, but he still did it.
Back to this issue, black and white, right and wrong are difficult to distinguish.
Why should we want the water recedes and the rocks appear, the truth comes to light?
This can only do more harm than good to everybody.
It surely is true.
Then all these accusations are true.
So what if it's true?
What if it's false?
What if it's true or false?
Your Majesty, if this is true,
you'd have falsified an imperial decree, killed the emperor and stolen the throne
three crimes of high treason—
And so everyone has the right to punish me, is that it?
Let me tell you. I'm still Great Song's Emperor now.
I can behead you two at any time.
Your Majesty,
this time you're really wrong.
Yang's Son Six, without fearing for his life, defied all difficulties and dangers
so that the truth could be known to everyone.
As a descendant of the Zhao family,
I, Zhao Defang, must live up to the expectations of my ancestors and successive generations,
and be worthy of the people of this country!
What's the big deal about a person's head?
Do you want it?
Then just take it!
I am willing to die without regrets for the Great Song country.
But if Your Majesty asks me to bury my conscience,
I would rather lay down my life.
Fine.
You are indeed a descendant of the Zhao clan.
You are indeed a brave warrior of the Yang family.
One of you is a pillar of my government,
one is my biological nephew, the Virtuous Prince.
If I really wanted to kill you, I couldn't do it.
Fine.
Today, in front of you two, I will admit
that Emperor Taizu was indeed killed by me.
But the truth of this matter isn't entirely like that.
Please, Your Majesty, explain it.
The reason why I did that was not to usurp his throne
but for the sake of the Song Empire.
Because I couldn't let Emperor Taizu's wrong thinking bring the Great Song down.
Emperor Taizu had great talent and bold vision, was wise and an epithet of a conquering general.
How could he bring destruction to his own state?
The young Emperor Taizu indeed had outstanding charm and exceptional courage.
But after ascending to the throne, with long years of comfort and pleasure
added to the declining years of a hero.
This Emperor Taizu wasn't the Taizu who pacified the country
and stabilized the government,
the heroic warrior, never tiring from numerous battles.
One evening, he suddenly told me a very strange idea.
Come, cheers.
I have a treasure.
What treasure?
This is a huge secret.
Since we built the Song dynasty,
I gathered and saved incalculable wealth.
I hid it in a very secret place.
This is the collection of treasures that I'm referring to.
Is this true?
This is the key to unlock the hidden treasures.
All we're waiting is for the time to be right.
The time to be right?
Since the Song dynasty was founded,
the sixteen provinces of Yanyun which are crucial to the country's safety,
are still in the hands of the Liao people.
I want to use this treasure to increase our army's fund
and fight the Liao people until the very end.
Royal brother, you are really brilliant.
You were able to save up for the needy day.
This is really a blessing for the Song citizens.
Come, let me give you a toast.
But after several years of fighting with the Liao people,
I thought of a perfect solution.
What solution?
I will use the treasure to buy the sixteen provinces of Yanyun from them.
What?
Royal brother, haven't you drunk too much?
I haven't.
You must not by any means do this!
If the Liao people get their hands on this wealth,
they will definitely reinforce their power.
Even if we are able to get temporary peace, that cannot last long.
Don't say anymore. I have decided.
Royal brother, you...
if you really think this way,
it's like asking a tiger for his skin, like committing suicide!
I am also just doing this for the sake of the government and its citizens,
and for the sake of the descendants of the Zhao family.
Royal brother! You cannot destroy your own country!
If those Liao people use that wealth to recruit soldiers and buy horses,
and then continue inciting war,
reconquering the sixteen provinces of Yanyun again, then...
that's like destroying your own country.
I've decided. No one can change my decision.
Royal brother, even if you can bear giving away your country on a platter,
I don't agree to you doing this.
Are you rebelling? You!
This country is my country!
Give the ax to me. Give it to me!
Royal brother!
Your Majesty...
That was the situation then.
If I hadn't snatched royal brother's golden ax truncheon that evening,
I'm afraid this Great Song country would have fallen into the Liao people's hands.
I know that killing one's royal brother is a crime,
but what I did was not wrong.
Your Majesty, you kept Princess Chai by your side in order to find out where the golden ax was.
Then to kill her to silence her. Didn't you?
Since the golden ax has been found,
why must Your Majesty still order the pursuit and death of Princess Chai and Yang's Son Six?
I initially wanted to give them a way out.
But they don't know the real truth of this matter,
and were determined to expose it to the public.
Do you know what the consequences would be?
Hence, I have no choice but to take these two lives in exchange for the country's stability.
You also know that since I ascended to the throne,
I made great effort to consolidate the state, recruit talent and listen to good advice.
I can say that I didn't wrong the citizens, that my conscience is clear.
Your Majesty, you are indeed a good Emperor,
but a throne that you got by killing your own elder brother,
can you really peacefully sit on it?
What you, royal nephew, means is... that you want to reclaim the throne?
Your Majesty, if I was someone who lusted for power,
I wouldn't have let you ascend the throne so easily at that time.
But you are indeed a person who killed your own older brother.
Just because you are the Emperor of Song, can you really be spared from your crime?
After all I said, you still won't agree to let me go.
Fine.
If you, royal nephew, insist on having your way, I will raise no objections.
But I want to tell you two, once this matter is made public,
there surely will be chaos in the world, endless wars.
If then the Liao use that chance to invade us again,
is that kind of consequence what you two want to see?
But this matter can't just be left unresolved, right?
Eighth Virtuous Prince, as soon as this matter gets announced to the world,
it will inevitably harm the Emperor's majesty, the people's heart will drift away,
the consequences unimaginable.
What should we do then?
Just stand aside and do nothing?
Pretend nothing happened?
I can't do that!
Your Majesty, I do have a suggestion, perhaps it is plausible.
One, it can lessen the hurt that Prince is feeling.
Second, it can quell the guilt in Your Majesty's heart.
General Yang, please speak.
Can Your Majesty go to the ancestral temple,
admit and repent for your crimes while in front of Eighth Virtuous Prince and your ancestors?
And use the imperial dragon robe in place of your imperial body
to be flogged as a punishment for your crime?
I am not smart.
I can only come up with this kind of expedient measure.
It's all in the interest of the Song dynasty.
Please, Your Majesty, try to understand.
