[Nirvana in Fire 2: The Wind Blows in Chang Lin] 3
[Episode 2] 4
[Old Master Li, Head of Ji Feng Hall] 5
Go faster. 6
Giddy up. 7
Miss Lin. 8
Regarding Pingzhang's condition, will he survive? 9
Whether he can or not, will depend on tonight. 10
It has been tough for you, Miss. I'll be here to watch over him. 11
Please take a rest. 12
Tonight is very critical for your son. It's better that I keep watch over him. 13
Thank you for your hard work, Miss Lin. 14
Sister Ying, change it again. 15
Your Highness. 16
The young Prince... 17
Master. 18
It's the same injury Lin Shen had that year. 19
Yes, it's the same injury. 20
[Lin Shen, Chang Lin Army, Xiao Tingsheng's god-brother] 21
We didn't manage to save Lin Shen back then, 22
but it was not your fault. 23
If I don't have faith in your medical skills, who else can I trust? 24
Lin Xi is my most talented disciple. 25
Compared to my own skills then, she is much better than I. 26
Master, his fever has gone down. 27
How is my older brother? 28
His current condition is stable. 29
That means he's all right. He will recover soon, right? 30
I don't know. 31
What do you mean, you don't know? 32
You are a physician. As long as you are dedicated, how could you not know? 33
Everyone has a huge misunderstanding of physicians. They think we are gods. 34
If we don't manage to save someone, that must be because we didn't do our best. 35
There is a rumor that the Second Young Master of the Chang Lin Mansion is receiving his education at Langya Court. 36
I thought that was something extraordinary, but after meeting you today, 37
you are just so-so. 38
Your Highness, please relax. 39
What happened twenty years ago won't repeat itself. 40
The gods will bless the Great Liang Empire. It's heaven's will. 41
I thank Old Master Li. 42
Royal Father. 43
Old Master. 44
Royal Father. 45
How did you think of rushing back? 46
The sinking of the ships in Datong Prefecture destroyed all the reinforcements from the Zuolu Army. (Zuolu - Left Path) 47
The war at Ganzhou lasted for almost twenty days. This is not normal. 48
It clearly shows that Great Yu will not stop until they conquer Ganzhou. 49
As for Older Brother, his supplies were running out. 50
The reinforcements are further away now. Thus, Ganzhou will be in danger. 51
- What's the use, even if you are here? - I... 52
Old Master. 53
Fine, I still have lots of military matters to take care of. 54
Stay here and keep your older brother company. 55
All right. 56
The left, right, and rear defenses have been stabilized. 57
The army of Great Yu has withdrawn from Meiling. 58
The front line of Ganzhou has suffered great damage. 59
Although we were able to stop the southward advance of Great Yu, we were unable to harm their main commander. 60
For the next few years, I'm afraid the northern border will face hidden danger. 61
As per Your Highness' instructions, we are taking extra precautions and will not relax. 62
Great Yu impetuously went southward but got blocked off. 63
For the moment, 64
there will not be any major movements. 65
Order Ning Canzan to make an Imperial report. 66
Use the fastest courier to report on the situation of the northern border to His Majesty. 67
Yes. 68
Xi'er. 69
Master. 70
Is this the first time you have met the second son of Chang Lin Mansion? 71
Is he what you imagined him to be? 72
I don't care about what kind of person he is. 73
I have never even thought about him. 74
That is not what I meant. 75
I just feel that... you... 76
Let him take this medicine. 77
Have a good rest. Don't move. 78
Miss Lin. 79
That day, I-- 80
Miss, please come and take a look. 81
Sister Ying, bring the fuxi tonic here. 82
Yes, I'll go now. 83
Miss Lin, what I said the other day was very disrespectful. I have offended you. 84
My father has also lectured me. 85
My brother's injury has gotten better. It's all due to your divine hands. 86
I'm really very grateful. 87
I heard from my father that Old Master Li was a physician with the Chang Lin army. 88
Have you heard him talk about the past? 89
Second Young Master, you are blocking the light. 90
Miss. 91
- He only needs to take the medicine once a day. - Yes. 92
I brought this medicine from Mount Langya. 93
See if you can use this. 94
It's not usable. 95
Not usable? 96
What kind of a physician are you? This is the Chu Yu pill from Mount Langya. (T/N restorative) 97
- Do you know what's in this-- - This is a tonic for recuperation. 98
You can take your time and consume it. 99
I should consume this? 100
Hey, brat, how can you talk this way? 101
Dong Qing... 102
Present. 103
Bring me the military report. 104
Yes. 105
Royal Father! 106
Lie down. 107
Your injury is very serious. You have been lying down for two days. 108
You were unconscious for two days before you woke up. 109
Regarding this, 110
don't look at it. It takes up energy. 111
Royal Father, the military powers were mobilized by Tongguan of Great Yu this time. 112
Half to sixty percent of them. 113
They were focused on attacking me on the left line of our defense. 114
Royal Father, don't you find that strange? 115
Yes. 116
Ganzhou... You have the elite army defending it. 117
Thus, it shouldn't be the place to focus an attack. But Great Yu was adamant about doing that. 118
It seems like they knew very well that 119
your supplies had been cut off. 120
But regarding the sinking of our boats... 121
How did the enemy find out? 122
It's more important for you to get well. I will handle this. 123
Don't think too much about this. 124
Royal Father, it seems like 125
you want to talk about other matters with me today. 126
Pingzhang, 127
I heard from Pingjing that before you left for Ganzhou, 128
you went to Langya Court first. 129
Is that so? 130
Royal Father, 131
I asked a question 132
and this... is the answer from Langya Pavilion. 133
Royal Father, take a look. 134
I don't need to look at this especially when you are the focal point. 135
After you had read this, 136
what were your thoughts? 137
After coming down from Langya Court, 138
I was very confused. 139
But I didn't have time to think about it in detail 140
until that day, when I was shot by the two arrows. 141
When I thought I would never be able to see you, Pingjing, and Xiao Xue again, 142
everything became clear. 143
Everything was clearer than before. 144
Whatever happened in the past was no longer important. 145
I'm more aware of... 146
what's in your heart now. 147
Subtitles and Timing provided by Gone With The Shirt Team at Viki.com 148
Thinking about when you both were young, 149
your temperaments were totally different. 150
Pingjing is careless and free, without a fear in the world. 151
The previous Emperor and His Majesty both like him more, 152
but in my heart, you know that I favor you more. 153
Father! 154
I know you favor Older Brother more, 155
but you didn't have to wait for me to say it again. 156
It has been many years and you are still afraid that I don't know who you favor? 157
Compare yourself with your older brother. 158
Tell me if I'm wrong in favoring him? 159
Royal Father, you are busy with the military affairs. 160
Since Pingjing is here, he can keep me company. 161
Good. 162
Pingzhang, the issue regarding the Datong Prefecture is not that urgent. Your health is more important. 163
About the military report, 164
don't read it again. 165
Yes. 166
I took a peek at the report that Royal Father instructed to be delivered to the capital. 167
Other than the situation on the northern border, he also raised suspicions about the shipwrecks. 168
He requested His Majesty to send an envoy to investigate them. 169
Good. 170
Since Royal Father has made this arrangement, I don't have to worry then. 171
Do you think this is all finished after reporting to the capital? 172
Older Brother, are you serious? 173
If I'm not, what are you thinking of doing? 174
I don't want to listen to these minor details right now! Explain first what happened to Pingzhang. 175
What injuries did this child have? 176
What did the military doctor say? 177
How come you didn't report these details to me! 178
Your Majesty. 179
May Your Majesty please not worry. 180
With Your Majesty's blessings and protection, the Chang Lin Imperial Brother and his heir will be all right. 181
It's just that right now, the boy suffered some external injuries and it's still inconvenient for him to move around. 182
Based on the report of my Imperial Brother, in the left region of Ganzhou, 183
a whole month of supplies got cut off. 184
Again, what's going on? 185
Your Majesty, 186
the river channel in the area of Datong Prefecture is very narrow and the water current is very rapid. 187
That night, there was suddenly a torrential rain and strong winds. 188
Hence... our ships accidentally sank. 189
Did the officials who were tasked to deliver the military supplies return? 190
The officials were all killed during the shipwreck. 191
Have you investigated it already? 192
Did the local officials of Datong Prefecture file a case and investigate it thoroughly? 193
Were there any Imperial reports sent here to the capital? 194
Were there any! 195
Your Majesty, after the ships sank, 196
the local officials of Datong Prefecture became busy gathering supplies to make up for those that sank, 197
that's why... they didn't have time to send it. 198
So the involved officials are dead and there was no one in Datong Prefecture that investigated it, 199
and you haven't even left the walls of the capital! 200
Song Fu, how then did you conclude that these were all just accidents? 201
Your Majesty, I was in error with my comments. I hope Your Majesty can forgive me. 202
These past two years, my health has slowly worsened. 203
I am indeed not that strict in supervising government matters. 204
And now that such things have happened, I actually feel that I have wronged my Imperial Brother Chang Lin. 205
Your Majesty, 206
these matters are all our fault. May Your Majesty calm your anger. 207
May Your Majesty calm your anger. 208
[Ganzhou Government Office] 209
I haven't seen you, Brother Li, for so many years. I never thought that 210
we would reunite here in Ganzhou. 211
I've long thought of... 212
long thought of inviting you to reminisce about our past. 213
It's just that I have been too busy and was unable to make time for it. 214
I also came from the military. 215
For Your Highness to have idle time like today is already not that easy. 216
Please. 217
When a person has already become old, 218
he will frequently want to talk about past things. 219
Come, Brother Li, please have a drink. 220
Great tea. 221
Thinking about how the three of us were in the past, 222
Oldest Brother Lu Yuan, me, and Third Brother Lin Shen. 223
The three of us going through life and death struggles together. 224
We were all saved by the Master from the Yeyou Palace. 225
We learned martial arts together and we all joined the army together. 226
But in the end, the only one 227
that was able to survive all this was me. 228
Your Highness never owed this brotherhood anything. 229
At the very least, I still see that Second Young Master is still carrying the previously bestowed wedding token. 230
Pingjing, being a princely son of Chang Lin, 231
is destined to enter the battlefield. 232
The wife of then Third Younger Brother cannot accept the death of her husband 233
and refused to proceed with the arranged marriage. 234
She was unwilling to let her daughter marry a soldier. 235
I can understand what she was thinking then. 236
Third Younger Brother, 237
I know what you are thinking of. 238
Your sister-in-law (my wife) wrote me a letter today saying that she bore me a son. 239
He is only three months younger than your daughter. 240
If you are willing, let us marry them to each other. 241
I initially had this long-life lock made for my son. 242
Treat it as our betrothal gift. 243
Third Younger Brother, let us settle on this marriage. 244
But she shouldn't have... 245
she shouldn't have taken the child away without saying anything. 246
My heart is really... 247
I feel really guilty for being unable to fulfill my Third Younger Brother's last wishes. 248
Your Highness sent so many people to search for them. 249
If they were really out there wandering, how could you not have found them? 250
Since all traces were lost, I'm sure that someone found them a place and had them taken in. 251
They surely didn't suffer. 252
I hope so. 253
I hope that it is really as Brother Li said. 254
Although Your Highness wanted to fulfill your promise, 255
His Majesty surely would not be willing to require Second Young Master to stay single, right? 256
His Majesty has already agreed that Pingjing can wait for another year. 257
If there is still no news about them, 258
His Majesty... will then intervene. 259
How is he? 260
He's fine. 261
It was really hard to be able to hear those words from you. 262
Older Brother, it's not that I am a coward. 263
That nightmare I had was really very scary! 264
I didn't dare stop on my way here and caused three horses to collapse. 265
It wasn't easy for me to rush here, but the first thing I saw was you covered in blood. 266
I really couldn't take it. 267
That's why the words I said before might have been a bit harsh, 268
but they were not really intentional. So I hope you won't mind them too much, all right? 269
Older Brother, look, she is always frowning. 270
I also know that it was her that treated your wounds. 271
It was not right for me to offend her. 272
That's why, I already went to beg her numerous times, but she just won't pay attention to me. 273
This brat is really petty-minded. 274
Can you blame the young lady? 275
You don't know when to stop when you start talking. 276
If it were me, I would also feel annoyed. 277
All right already. 278
Let us not talk about this anymore. 279
Older Brother, I have something serious to tell you. 280
Your Highness has already concluded that 281
the sinking of the ships in Datong Prefecture can't be an accident? 282
After being in the military for so many years, I have long disregarded my own life and death. 283
But the battle in Ganzhou, I fear, was so intense... 284
for another different reason. 285
Although in war, there will always be gains and losses, 286
secretly shooting a cold arrow is a shameless thing and unforgivable. (T/N: Treachery, stabbing one in the back) 287
Your Highness wants to fully investigate this matter? 288
If I don't, 289
how can I face those soldiers that have died? 290
You want to go to Datong Prefecture? 291
Everyone knows that a matter like this will be investigated by the higher authorities. 292
But when the Imperial envoy leaves the capital, although he will be intimidating and bearing awe-inspiring strength, 293
he might not be able to find the truth in the end. 294
If you are able to think of it, you think Royal Father will not? 295
No matter what His Majesty's plans are, our northern border army will also send our own men to investigate. 296
But the critical part is who must be sent to investigate. 297
In secretly investigating, what's important is the word "secret." You surely can't be considered anymore. 298
The wounds on your body are too obvious. You surely can't go. 299
Although Royal Father has numerous elite soldiers under him, 300
in terms of solo-fighting and ability to adapt to circumstances, who would be better than I? 301
This matter concerns the six major bureaus of the government; a very complicated matter. 302
Pingjing is not a member of my army. Sending him to secretly investigate is most appropriate. 303
Your Highness is really at ease letting Second Young Master go alone? 304
Will he not bring any personal bodyguards? 305
If I let Pingjing bring some men from the northern border troops, 306
I fear that it will be hard for him to keep his cover. 307
Your Highness... 308
I actually have an idea. 309
Speak. 310
Doesn't Royal Father always listen to you? Older Brother, just let me go. 311
Although I am not as steady as you, I have been to battles and traveled across the Jianghu. (T/N: World of martial artists/pugilists) 312
No matter what shady deal happened in Datong Prefecture, I will surely be able to discover it! 313
Of course, I know that you are the most appropriate person. It's also fine with me to send you. 314
But you must promise me two conditions first. 315
Older Brother, please say them. 316
First, you learned martial arts from Langya Hall. There will only be a few people in this world who can harm you. (Hall - training sect) 317
But secretly investigating this alone, we don't know what can happen. 318
I hope that you don't forget that even though knowing the truth is important, 319
your safety should come first. 320
Yes. 321
Second, our Great Liang puts laws above everything. 322
You can rely on luck or adaptive methods, but you must not lose your sense of propriety. 323
Once you are able to find the truth and evidence, the government will naturally give us justice. 324
Don't act upon the laws with your own hands because of momentary anger. 325
I will abide by Older Brother's instructions. 326
I understand everything that you have said. 327
Brother Li is willing to let Miss Lin go with him so that they can take care of each other? 328
Don't worry. I might not be of help in some matters, 329
but I still do have some errand runners in Datong Prefecture. 330
If this is the case, I'm relieved. 331
Thank you then, Brother Li. 332
- Xi'er. - Master. 333
Master. 334
Such an incident has occurred in the Datong Prefecture. 335
In one night, we from the Ji Feng Hall have lost five physicians. 336
I remembered that you want to live a safe and peaceful life? 337
But I'm tending to the young Prince's injuries. 338
I should take care of him from start to finish. 339
Yes. 340
Thinking about the situation in Datong Prefecture, it's not that simple. 341
Physician Qi is not as calm as you when he tends to matters. 342
Thinking about it, you must go there before I can feel at ease. 343
I will do all in accordance with your instructions. 344
The perilous situation that befell Ganzhou this time all started with that river channel. 345
The Prince of Chang Lin will naturally have his men go investigate it. 346
If you encounter them, you must use all your efforts to help them. 347
Yes, Master, I understand. This is what I should do. 348
Good. Have an early rest. 349
I've lectured you so many times 350
because I'm hoping you'll finally take heed. 351
Your older brother said you are sincere in wanting to do this. 352
You must do a good job. 353
Royal Father, don't worry. The schemes were planned by men. 354
No matter how clever they were, there must be some flaws. 355
I will go. I won't disappoint you, Royal Father. 356
No matter who this thing points to, 357
no matter what identity he has or for what reasons, 358
having injured my older brother to this extent, 359
he shouldn't dream of leaving intact. 360
So, you little rascal, what you're saying 361
this has become the personal grudge of the Prince of Chang Lin's Manor? 362
The supplies got cut off. The front line was put in danger. 363
It's possible that someone is secretly helping them. 364
This is an important matter to the Imperial court, it must be investigated thoroughly. 365
I don't care about any grand sounding words. 366
To me, although this is a mound of official business... 367
it absolutely remains a private grudge. 368
Royal Father, why do you care so much? 369
He's followed Old Master Lin for so long; 370
of course, he'll grow up like this. 371
But this little rascal is not totally wrong either. 372
No matter who did this, 373
I cannot let him escape unscathed. 374
His Majesty has already ordered a main envoy and an assistant 375
to set out in five days toward Datong Prefecture 376
to investigate the sinking of the military ships. 377
The Prince of Chang Lin's Manor has proposed to investigate it at the same time. 378
His Majesty has already allowed it. 379
Lord Song, you are a Minister of the Imperial court. 380
You're favored by His Majesty. 381
Why didn't you have any sense of this? 382
That Great Yu 383
would really send a huge army southward, 384
not just me 385
but even you also didn't think of that happening. 386
Even so, I just did a small manipulation. 387
At most, it would have delayed the supplies for a few days. 388
How come three ships sank and the river channel got blocked for half a month? 389
I'm not too clear about what happened either. 390
You are not clear? 391
The matter has come to this stage. Could it be an accident? 392
The Great Yu army mainly attacked only the Ganzhou province, 393
could it just be a coincidence? 394
I have been in the government for close to ten years. 395
I am heavily favored by His Majesty. I was able to bring my family wealth, splendor, and high status. 396
What benefit do I get from conniving with the enemy? 397
The tricks you've pulled on the supply ships, 398
who have you told? 399
Private Assistant Qin in my manor 400
was the one contacting the people in Datong Prefecture 401
and the few men who usually do things for me. 402
Apart from them, no one else knows. 403
Of course... there is also you. 404
The people who know are already too many. 405
I didn't expect that 406
things would come to this state. 407
Right now, the northern border is not at peace and the Old Prince's heir is gravely injured. 408
Chang Lin Manor will still be unable to extend their hands to do anything. 409
As I see it, whatever you can clean up first, 410
you should clean it up well. 411
