[Episode 28] 4
Brother Xun. 5
Sister-in-law is willing to rest and recuperate at Langya Court. 6
It's the best for the child. 7
It's good that she's willing to go. 8
Are you leaving the capital to send them off? 9
Can I go with you? 10
Alright. 11
I've been taking care of Sister Meng's health. 12
I'm going with her. 13
I know it's not your fault. 14
But every time I see you, I can't help but think 15
there could be, 16
there could be a different ending. 17
I'm sorry I can't help it. 18
I can't help it. 19
Senior Disciple. 20
Take care. 21
Thank you. 22
Dong Qing, please take extra care 23
- during the journey. - Be rest assured, Second Young Master. 24
Take care. 25
Pingjing has always been like this. 26
Whenever he can't accept the reality, he would bury his head, 27
hide away and refuse to face it. 28
Don't blame him. He needs some time. 29
You too have thought about this, right? 30
If I too had insisted not to carry out the treatment. 31
I admit I've thought about it. 32
Or rather deep down in my heart, 33
I had hoped that it was like that. 34
However, the crux of the matter is 35
that this is Pingzhang's decision. 36
Do you like it? 37
Royal Father. 38
I have something I would like to report to you. 39
What is it? 40
I plan to leave the Capital and go to the army at the northern border. 41
Have you thought about it carefully? 42
Yes. 43
I should take over the burden that had been on Older Brother's shoulders all this while. 44
Since you are willing, 45
then go to the army camp at Ganzhou, and train yourself well. 46
Yes. 47
Your Majesty, Second Young Master of Chang Lin Manor was outside the hall, he bowed 48
and bade farewell. 49
Royal Father, why did Pingjing ge-ge bid farewell outside the hall? 50
He didn't want to come in? 51
He would lead Pingzhang da-ge's army at Ganzhou well, right? 52
Royal Father. 53
One son has just passed away, now he has to send another away. 54
Is Old Prince really that afraid the army authority would fall into the hands of others? 55
Her Majesty, 56
these words aren't beneficial for you and others. 57
Even if it's spoken in private, please don't speak of it anymore. 58
Pingjing! 59
- Yuanqi? - Pinging. 60
What are you doing here? 61
As a son of Great Liang, I should fight in the northern border. 62
Could you please bring me with you to Ganzhou? 63
It's not an easy task to be enlisted in the army. 64
I know. So when I heard the news, 65
I went to the Military Bureau and even asked His Majesty. He has permitted me to do so. 66
Yuanqi. 67
Pingjing, I won't give you trouble in Ganzhou. 68
Even though we are born into rich families, I'm from the family of generals and have been wandering in the pugilistic world, 69
I'm still different from you. 70
Life at the border is harsh and cold, can you really take it? 71
Even if I can't take it and sneaked out from the camp, 72
I believe you won't send anyone to arrest me, right? 73
Since you have ambition, I won't stop you. 74
General, a message from Langya Court! 75
General. 76
A nephew. My little nephew. 77
So tiny. Really looks like Heir. 78
How could you see the resemblance to Heir from such tiny feet? 79
You must be happy. 80
General, this pigeon is injured. 81
How did this pigeon injured itself? 82
Physician. Physican Du! 83
Physician Du, look, this pigeon is injured. 84
Why are you shouting? I'm a physician, not a vet. 85
Physician Du. 86
[One year later] 87
Wait a moment. 88
Let me do it. 89
Yes. 90
Royal Father. 91
Royal Father. 92
Drink this medicine. 93
Old Prince, the Medical Bureau 94
has sent all the recent medical records of His Majesty. 95
Yuanshi, you have been learning from the Cabinet on court matters, 96
you weren't lazy or mischievous, right? 97
Royal Father, I admit I was a bit mischievous in the past. 98
But now, I hope I can pick up things faster so that you don't need to overwork yourself. 99
During this time that I was sick, my Yuanshi has grown up a lot. 100
I am now 13 years old. I'm no longer a child. 101
Please continue to sleep. I'm going to help you organise the summaries. 102
The Medical Bureau's records are detailed and use of medicine is appropriate. 103
They have done their best as physicians. I couldn't do any better than them. 104
But His Majesty has been taking the medicine for so long, 105
and his health has not improved. 106
Just say it. 107
How long more does His Majesty have? 108
I don't dare to give my opinion on this as I have not made a consultation personally. 109
But at least he can still live until after the new year. 110
Minister Jin, please hold on. 111
- Minister Jin. - Chancellor. 112
His Majesty is sick and yet he wants to meet with you. 113
I believe it's of something important. 114
I thought you would be in discussion for a long time, 115
why is it that you are leaving the palace so quickly? 116
His Majesty is not that well, 117
he only instructed me to do one thing. It didn't take up much time. 118
One thing? What is it? 119
His Majesty has decreed to bestow upon 120
Xiao Pingjing of Chang Lin Manor the 3rd rank of General Huaihua, 121
and the main General of Ganzhou camp. 122
Pingjing has done very well In Ganzhou for the past year. 123
The reports from the military mentioned that he made solid contributions. 124
But Your Majesty, you should have let me know in advance of your intention to confer him the title. 125
I can't let you know in advance. 126
This child is still too young. 127
When his older brother was conferred the rank, it wasn't done in haste. 128
It was different for Pingzhang back then. 129
You were in your forties and I wasn't old. 130
Don't you know very well 131
why I'm this anxious? 132
I thank His Majesty for his generosity. 133
Congratulations, General Huaihua. 134
May I ask about His Majesty and Old Prince's health? 135
Old Prince has gained some grey hairs, 136
but he's still healthy. 137
What about His Majesty? 138
His Majesty's health is still manageable. 139
His Majesty is seriously ill and can't get out of bed. 140
The Imperial Harem is not required to greet him personally, 141
even I cannot go near him. 142
Every matter is being converted by Grand Prince of Chang Lin. 143
He has even summoned Royal Uncle Prince Ning into the Palace. 144
What on earth are they discussing about? 145
Don't be anxious, Her Majesty. Crown Prince 146
has been by his side all this while. 147
Crown Prince is only 13 years old. What does he know? 148
Royal Uncle, you are old yet I have to summon you into the Palace. 149
I have long wanted to see you, Your Majesty. 150
You are younger than me by 30 years. 151
It's alright, you will recover soon. 152
I have been lying down all this while, and can't get out of bed. 153
Royal Uncle, 154
I have thought about many things. 155
I have thought about things which I have never thought before. 156
Frankly speaking, 157
the person I'm worried about is Royal Brother. 158
Why are you saying this? I have 159
been living and eating well in my manor. But my eyes 160
still can see things very clearly. 161
Grand Prince of Chang Lin is 162
completely loyal to you and Crown Prince. 163
Could it be that I have thought of the opposite? 164
I don't understand what Her Majesty is worried about. 165
His Majesty is seriously ill. It's within reason to summon members of the royal family. 166
Moreover, Crown Prince has been serving by his side. 167
What is it that Her Majesty is not at ease about? 168
Feizhan. 169
Her Majesty is not worried about the situation at hand. 170
She's worried about the future. 171
Though the current situation is harmonious, 172
when His Majesty can't continue anymore, 173
a young heir takes over the throne, 174
When the king is young and the country is worried and doubtful, 175
it's recorded in the history annals that mutiny arose and many died. 176
We are in a crucial situation now. 177
What happened in history are right before our eyes. 178
Shouldn't we be on our guard? 179
I do not know how you want to be on guard. 180
From outside, Chang Lin Manor seems high and lofty and impenetrable. 181
Grand Prince of Chang Lin has high position and great authority. But I know very well that 182
Royal Brother has been out in battles his whole life without ceasing. 183
And because military officials are not allowed to meddle in court affairs, 184
so he doesn't know very well the affairs of the state. 185
He had Pingzhang around back then, 186
that child was sharp and thorough, and helped him oversee things. 187
But now that Royal Brother has lost his right-hand man, 188
he doesn't look well day by day. 189
His only child is still at the borders. 190
After hearing what you said, 191
it pains me very much. 192
I know I don't have much time left. 193
Your Majesty. 194
Once I pass away, 195
no one can say for sure 196
what will happen in the court, 197
what will Crown Prince's heart and character be like? 198
Maybe others will say with a young king at court, 199
the person who should worry the most is Crown Prince. 200
But I know the person I'm most worried about is Royal Brother. 201
He's old, 202
he has been fighting in battles for the country the whole of his life. 203
If he doesn't come to a good end, 204
how can I face the late king when I see him in the nether world? 205
What? Ask Old Prince to live in luxury in Wei Mountain? 206
His Majesty has very relationship with Old Prince. 207
When His Majesty passes on, Old Prince will be very sad. 208
Why not let Crown Prince send him to the mansion at the Imperial Tomb? 209
This way, at least the brotherly ties can still be uphold. 210
Then what if Old Prince is unwilling to go? 211
Your Uncle is Senior Grand Secretary, 212
you are responsible for the security of the palace. 213
Crown Prince will be the new king of Great Liang, 214
if he makes the suggestion, Old Prince will take that into consideration. 215
If Old Prince goes to Imperial Tomb, Pingjing is also not in the capital, 216
the borders is far away. Any news will take a month to reach. 217
With all these in mind, 218
both of you will be at ease, right? 219
So long as everyone lives in harmony, and get what they want. 220
isn't this much better? 221
You are at ease, 222
I think His Majesty will not be at ease. 223
Her Majesty, Uncle, 224
do you know why I'm in charge of the palace security? 225
Because at this moment now, the only person whom I obey orders from 226
is His Majesty. 227
I'm not a clever person since I was young. 228
I don't have any exceptional insights or wise opinions. 229
If I have any strength to speak of, 230
it's just that I have lived longer, seen more hearts of people than most, that's all. 231
Old Prince of Chang Lin has great authority and high moral, 232
this is a fact. No matter how humble he is, or how much he gives in, 233
it's impossible that no one will be jealous of him. 234
It's impossible to grasp the court situation and the hearts of people easily change, 235
I have the same thoughts as you. Royal Brother is already in this position, 236
he cannot always give in. 237
Might as well... 238
Might as well retreat for the sake of advancing, 239
this is considered the last arrangement for me to make. 240
Your Majesty, be at ease. I understand. 241
I know what you are worried about. You're worried that His Majesty 242
cannot pull through this time. 243
The northern border is quite peaceful now. If you're worried, why not go back? 244
Your position is different now. You don't have to ask for permission to go back if it's only you and your personal guards. 245
It's because of the current situation that no matter how worried I am, I have to stay here. 246
That's right. 247
His Majesty has been very ill, everyone in the capital is not at ease. 248
It's better for Uncle with you commanding the troops at the border than you going back. 249
With strong neighbours surrounding our country, in their eyes, 250
it's the best chance to strike at us at this point of changing rulers. 251
Chang Lin army is in charge of guarding the borders. We have to 252
be even more vigilant at this time. 253
That's right. 254
We are talking about the same matter right now. 255
Royal Father. 256
Royal Father. 257
Yuanshi, you 258
haven't matured enough. As a father's responsibility, 259
I should been teaching and supporting you for a few more years. 260
But the late king is lonely in the nether world, 261
he wishes for me to meet him earlier. 262
Royal Brother. 263
Royal Brother. 264
Your Majesty. 265
After I pass on, you have to listen to your Royal Uncle's teachings, 266
be diligent and receptive to advice, be a benevolent ruler. 267
Your Majesty. 268
I want to get up. 269
I, His Majesty, 270
today summon the officials and royal family here is to 271
entrust my child in public, with the new king ascending the throne, 272
Old Prince of Chang Lin will-- 273
Your Majesty. 274
guide him in all state matters. 275
We obey your decree. 276
We obey your decree. 277
Royal Father. 278
Older Brother. 279
Older Brother. 280
Yes, I'm here. 281
Royal Father! 282
Your Majesty! 283
- Your Majesty! - Royal Father. 284
- Your Majesty! - Royal Father! 285
Brother Tingsheng. 286
Brother Tingsheng, come chase after me. 287
Look, how well are these two children playing together. 288
- That's right. - Don't fall down. 289
[Memorial] 290
Your Majesty. 291
You passed such a decree on your deathbed, 292
have you ever thought for our child a bit at all? 293
This generation after generation, [Emperor of Great Liang has passed away] 294
even he has passed away. 295
- Record it. - Yes. 296
