Untouchable Lovers
Episode 16
Tian Rujing, I've belittled you.
Rong Zhi, immediately stop.
Or else, I'll kill this maidservant first
- and then kill the person you love! - Menke Rong...
Youlan, what are you hiding in your clothes?
Menke Rong, I...
My men sent me a carrier pigeon message. When they were destroying the tracks of the carriage,
they discovered 2 red beans.
Youlan, you did that, right?
What did you say?
She left red beans at important areas,
that's why, Hua Cuo was able to track the carriage.
I treated you well.
I even took you with me while escaping for my life. Why must you betray me?!
Because I like Menke Rong!
What?!
I've liked Menke Rong since a long time ago,
but I dare not let Princess notice it.
As long as I'm able to look at him from afar,
I feel contented.
When Princess left Jiankang,
I then thought that if I follow you, I surely will see Menke Rong again.
Hence, I didn't hesitate to go with you.
Menke Rong, as long as it's for you,
I am willing to risk my life.
So, you risked your life to fool He Ji,
not for me but for Rong Zhi?
But Menke Rong left midway.
I didn't know where to go, so I could only follow Princess.
Afterwards, Imperial Astrologer sent Commander Ling to see me.
But you never said a word to me.
Princess, the heaven isn't fair at all.
People are born unequal.
If I have your beauty and status,
I would have confessed to Menke Rong long ago.
But I have nothing.
I even get scared in just secretly looking at him.
I am also a woman!
The things that you discuss, the tunes that you play,
I don't understand any of them!
I can only crawl on the ground.
Look at your world from afar.
A me like that is so ashamed of my inferiority.
Sorry, Princess. The more I love Menke Rong,
the more I grew envy of you.
That's why, I hope that you die.
There were so many women in this world that love Rong Zhi.
Do you plan to kill them all?
No matter how many women there is in this world,
you are the only one that Menke Rong cares for!
Rong Zhi, a beautiful woman like this that's willing to risk everything for you,
are you going to just watch her die?
What does her life or death have to do with me?
Since that's the case, then she's useless.
The next one is Princess.
Rong Zhi!
Do you remember that you promised me 3 things?
Now, there is one more left.
Right, beg him to give up everything
in exchange for your life.
A person that has been fooling me all this time,
why must I be reluctant to leave him?
Rong Zhi, I will never love you again.
Just fulfill your wild ambitions and do what you want.
Rong Zhi...you are indeed Rong Zhi.
Tian Rujing, I already can't escape.
Let me say a few words to Chuyu.
Tian Rujing, I'm ordering you!
Kill them all!
Tian Rujing, whatever tricks you used, you've won. I also am willing to accept defeat.
Now that I'm just going to say a few words to her, you're being afraid?
Tian Rujing, why are you still standing there?
I'm ordering you to kill them!
Shut up.
Your Majesty...
Your Majesty, Tian Rujing isn't under your control anymore.
For your safety, it's better that you keep silent.
That day, I rejected you because we have different stands.
Rather than being in pain forever, it's better to just swipe the sword and severe our ties.
This was something that you once gave up. I then spun it like a cocoon around myself, not wanting to get away from it.
Afterwards, I also recalled the days when we're together.
Those were my most relaxing and happiest moments.
The more I recall them, the clearer your image becomes.
I don't know when it started, but it seems that I have already kept you in the bottom of my heart.
I thought that love can be kept and given very freely.
But I was wrong.
There is always an exception to everything.
Chuyu, you are my exception.
Before, you didn't mind jumping over the cliff just to follow me.
If you are given one more chance, will you still be willing?
Father!
No. I can't.
Rong Zhi, you are a person with wild ambitions.
You are a killer.
You are ruthless enough to wield your swords on women and children.
I am unable to forgive
a you like that.
Rong Zhi, I am cursing you!
One day, you will also taste the pain of sincerely giving out your heart
but getting cast away just like a shoe!
You will then know how it feels for your inner organs to be cut off,
your heart shattering to the point that you desire death!
No, I won't.
My love, hate, life, and death are decided by me.
I won't regret them and won't suffer.
My life and death is in my hands.
I'm delighted to win, and also will calmly accept defeat.
Rong Zhi...
I don't want to leave any corpse.
You also shouldn't look. Dying like this, after all,
will look very bad.
Rong Zhi... Rong Zhi!
- Junior Brother. - Rong Zhi!
- Princess! - Princess!
Rong Zhi! Rong Zhi--
- Rong Zhi! Rong Zhi! - Princess!
- Don't be rash! - Rong Zhi!
Princess, are you crazy?!
Rong Zhi!
Let us go confirm if he's really dead.
- Let go of me. - Princess.
Let go of me!
- Go there to look! - Yes!
Hurry! Keep up!
Princess!
I found him!
Men! Carry him out here!
The death star that deserved to die... He's finally dead!
Kill that woman too!
Your Majesty, if you still don't shut up, don't blame me for being heartless.
Tian Rujing, I am the emperor of Song.
That will only count once you've safely returned to the Palace.
Let me confirm if it's Rong Zhi.
Your Majesty, I'll go up there and look.
Let's go!
He had scars all over his body from being tortured when he was little.
He also got captured by the Jiang clan for several years.
He fractured his hand bones. There was one bone the never grew back properly. It's him.
Don't touch him!
Mo Xiang.
Are you satisfied now? Seeing that his dead,
are all happy?!
Tian Rujing, you finally have eliminated the greedy wolf star.
Completing your will of the Heaven.
Brother Yuwen, you changed your alliance to Wei's Empress Dowager.
Aren't you ashamed on how you disappointed the many years that Master has trained you?!
Hua Cuo, you always blamed Master for fooling you.
He also previously taught you sword skills. How come you've forgotten that completely?
Rong Zhi, I didn't want you to die.
I just can't accept it.
I am just mad.
I want to force you to admit your mistakes.
Why?
How come you'd rather die than admit that you were wrong?!
Even if it's fake, it's fine with me.
I wanted us to go back to how we used to be.
I wanted to be your best friend again!
Now...I'm giving you back my life.
I'll return to you all those
sword techniques I learned from you!
And you, Liu Chuyu.
Master didn't mind sending out all his trusted aides to protect you, that's why he ended up like this.
But what about you?! What did you do?!
If I'm given another chance,
I will never change my choice.
Rong Zhi hurt a lot of innocent citizens. Chuyu chose to give up on him.
That is his retribution.
Men! Bring him here!
The one who harmed those innocent citizens is him!
What did you say?
Zong Yue colluded with Shen Youzhi and killed innocent citizens in neighboring towns.
They disguised the citizens as Wei soldiers just to falsely report military achievements.
Why must you blame all these deaths to Rong Zhi?
Chuyu, Rong Zhi sincerely loved you.
You also died for him once.
How come you just won't trust him this time?
Shen Youzhi, where are you running to?!
And Liu Yu! Where is he?!
He now hates you very much. Must we chase after him?
The fortune of Song has ended. Just let him be.
Men! Take him away!
Stop!
I was ordered by Empress Dowager to bring Young Lord's body back to Wei.
Please don't hinder me.
Or else...
This is Rong Zhi's letter to Empress Dowager Feng.
Look at it first.
This is the progress plan of Wei for the next 10 years.
And the list of spies he had been handling for so many years.
From the start, he knew about Empress Dowager Feng's plan.
He knew that she's making her move.
Chuyu must be in danger.
There's still time for you to cut yourself from her.
If you want to achieve your grand ambition, you shouldn't pay attention to a woman.
Now is not the time for romantic follies.
Do you know that Brother Yuwen has already secretly sent men into Jizou City?
What is he planning to do?
Looks like Empress Dowager and Tian Rujing plan to work together in eliminating me.
How is that possible? You are her sibling.
You have always been planning and making preparations for her.
So hateful. That cruel woman actually double-crossed you.
No matter what, just let her be. No need to pay attention to it.
What if she wants to kill you?
Just let her kill me then.
Before mother died, the person she was worried about the most is Feng Ting.
I swore to take care of her forever.
But too bad, I faced a mishap when I was 8 years-old.
Causing me to end up with the Jiang clan, while she entered the palace.
From a naive and romantic girl, she became vicious and ruthless.
And now, she can't even trust her own little brother too.
She has no way of turning back.
The only way is to make her this world's most respected woman.
Even if that's the case, you don't need to die.
If I don't die, how could the people following me willing submit themselves to her?
If I don't die, she will forever fear me.
If I don't die, she will never return to my previous sister.
That's why...
I can only die.
I used to be bent on taking revenge.
Now that I've succeeded,
I would then take Master's corpse and bury it in a quiet place.
As for myself, I will guard his tomb forever
and never step into the Central Plains again.
Tian Rujing, our collaboration ends here. Farewell.
Let's go.
Liu Chuyu, I'm taking Rong Zhi with me.
You can't.
You are Master's most beloved woman. I won't kill you,
but I ask you to forever remember his love for you.
- Men! - Chuyu...
Take him away.
Chuyu, he is from Wei. He should return to his kingdom to be buried.
Can you bear to see him get buried in a foreign land?
Chuyu.
- Rong Zhi! Rong Zhi! - Chuyu! Chuyu!
- Don't be like this! - It's all my fault! Why didn't I believe him?!
This is not your fault.
You don't understand!
I said that I don't blame him.
I told him for us to forget each other from now on.
But in reality, I was hating him.
I hate him for not loving me! I hate him for lying to me!
But when I learned that he massacred innocent women and children,
I hated myself more.
I hate myself...
for falling in love with him.
How come at that moment, I still love him so much.
That's why, I would say such cruel words.
Chuyu.
Chuyu!
- Chuyu! - Rong Zhi!
Junior Brother, I have some words to tell you.
Senior Brother, what is it that you want to tell me?
Why did you not tell me about your plans today?
You were with Princess for a long time. I'm sure that you'll get soft-hearted.
If you don't agree to let me take Princess as a hostage,
then all my previous hard work will be for naught.
Moreover, I'm colluding with Wei this time. With your upright personality, you surely will be against it.
Of course, I won't agree!
That is the Wei that killed thousands of my countrymen!
Junior Brother, you kept saying that Rong Zhi is a the greedy wolf, a treacherous person.
Only today did I understand
that the people who are really crazy is you and Master!
Junior Brother, our sect existed for the good of the citizens of the world.
But for your laughable beliefs about fate, you were able to betray your ideals and the government.
You stopped at nothing and even caused the death of innocent people!
You are several times more evil than Rong Zhi.
You have a short foresight. What you see are only the sacrifices in front of you.
You are unable to consider the greater good.
I am preserving the natural law. Only by eliminating Rong Zhi
can war be averted. That is the only way.
Junior Sister, you like Chuyu, right?
She is the first person to say no to you.
The first woman to challenge your power as the Imperial Astrologer. You previously wavered because of her.
You even agreed to help her convince Liu Ziye. That is totally not you.
No, I never. I never wavered.
A person's gaze will never lie.
Junior Brother, just for a laughable natural law, you betrayed your own heart.
You are so pitiful.
Shut up! Shut up!
I didn't do anything wrong. I will never be wrong!
Maybe, the reason you are so bent in killing Rong Zhi
is because of the envy in your heart.
You envy that he has Chuyu's only love,
while you don't even have the chance to say it.
Junior Brother, you really disappointed me.
It's not like what you said. It definitely isn't like that.
Just to kill Rong Zhi, you just watched as the citizens suffered.
You completely have gone crazy!
Junior Brother, I urge you to quickly wake up!
Don't lost the most important thing just because of your heart's demon!
Pavilion Master, Liu Yu's throne wasn't obtained properly anyway.
When he returned to Jiankang, he has been terribly suspicious of everyone.
He kept executing the descendants of the royal family.
If any of the ministers will just say something he doesn't like, their whole clan will get executed.
Pavilion Master, compared to Liu Ziye, this Liu Yu's ruthlessness
is only worse and never less.
[Liu Chu Yu; Liu Yu]
He? He was just a puppet.
I'm letting the world know
that the Liu clan is savage and heartless.
Lord Xiao, you are the real emperor that's destined by the heaven.
Now, we can proceed with our next step.
What about Liu Chuyu?
She? Someone will naturally send her to where she should go.
Princess, you're awake.
Who sent you here?
Don't you know how bold and amorous the princess was?
You're being too shy. I wanted to ask you for an item.
I can give you what you want,
but you must promise me to do 3 things.
Being able to lessen Princess' worries is my duty.
I just hope that Princess will stop pushing me away.
If you don't open your mouth, how can I check it?
Or, do you want to never recover?
While a person is alive, the hardest thing to do is to let go.
People will always remember those unhappy things and neglect those happy ones.
I hope that this tune of mine can make you happy.
Other than me, no one can kill me!
Rong Zhi!
You've already did very well. It's not that you don't care about Mo Xiang's life,
you just care about mine more.
I heard what you said that day.
What?
Liu Chuxiu and your feelings towards me.
You were pretending to be asleep?
Yes.
You asked me if I like you or not and I said I didn't.
But I forgot that it is impossible to hide the fluttering of one's heart.
If you are going to ask when I started liking you, I don't know.
Maybe it was at the moment that you jumped for me. Maybe it was earlier.
Before, you didn't mind jumping down the cliff just to follow me.
If you're given another chance, are you willing?
I can't.
Rong Zhi... Rong Zhi!
Where is Chuyu? Where is Chuyu?!
Hurry and go save her.
She got taken away by a group of people in black. They went eastward.
People in black? Could it be him?

You're awake.
You?
Zhu Que, after not seeing for so many days, you can't even remember your past master?
You really are so unkind and unfaithful.
Pavilion Master,
Liu Ziye is already dead. Everything has ended.
Liu Ziye is indeed dead.
But he didn't die in your hands.
You still have disappointed my trust and my many years of teachings.
That's why, I took you back here
to be publicly executed, so others won't dare to follow you.
How dare you! You dare to disrespect Pavilion Master?!
I indeed trusted Pavilion Master a lot.
What about you? You show your tail but hide your head. (concealing half of the matter)
When did you ever show you real face?
You clearly know about my real identity,
yet you instead let me kill my real brother.
Fendai and I are just one of your lackey.
You want us to act according to your command.
But when did you ever have compassion for us?
Not only me.
Also you all. Who are not just his pawn?
Shut up!
Shut up? Why must I shut up?
You are going to kill me already.
I already can't escape death. Why must I still conceal the truth for you?
The people here,
other than those orphaned by war,
most have their parents just die overnight.
Have you all thought about it?
Have you thought about how your parents die?!
Before I die, I just want to know...
when did you know that I'm Liu Chuxiu?
You don't need to know that much.
I brought you back here to be publicly executed.
Do it.
Come.
Teacher Uncle, you promised me that you'll let her live.
What did you call him?
You pretended to not know martial arts, so you were just concealing it all this time?!
Zhu Que, didn't you ask me how I knew about your identity?
Other than Tian Rujing and I are both from Yunji Mountain,
he worked in the government, while I worked covertly.
We both only have one goal,
that is to preserve the natural law
and assist the new emperor.
So you both are the smart people.
Only I'm the stupid one. I even asked you to help me.
How can I be this dumb?!
So, my whole life, were just being controlled by you two!
No. I wavered.
It's just that I realized eventually that the will of the heaven can't be disobeyed.
That's why, I reverted back to the implementation of the original plan.
What is the will of the heaven?
Is the will of the heaven watching the citizens suffer wars, droughts, and get pushed to a corner?
It was the will of the heaven to let me be born in a high and noble family
then suddenly make me fall down from the clouds.
The will of the heaven firmly believed that Liu Ziye is a bad emperor.
Repeatedly tried to kill him.
What are your reasons for supporting Prince Xiangdong to the imperial throne?
He clearly was more pretentious and sinister than Fashi!
Wrong. Tell me.
Was Liu Yu also a pawn?
Is he?! Why is Yunjin Mountain doing all these?
He really are your chosen emperor?! For whom are we being sacrificed for?!
Kill her!
Chuyu.
Tian Rujing, this person has already seen heaven's mystery. She can't be allowed to live.
No. I said before that you can't kill her.
I think that you're really insane.
The rules of Yunjin Mountain is that outsiders must not know about heaven's mystery.
You still want to save her now?
I have a way.
I guarantee that she won't foil your plan.
I won't allow anyone to hurt her.
Your Majesty, Prince Consort He Ji asks for an audience.
Let him in.
Let Prince Consort in!
Greetings, Your Majesty.
Why is Prince Consort in a hurry?
Your Majesty, I heard that Tian Rujing
has arrived in Jiankang.
Tian Rujing?! I haven't even make him pay for what he did to me.
He actually dared to come here alone?
Your Majesty.
Tian Rujing?! You...
You're so bold! You dare to trespass the inner palace?!
Men! Men!
Come, go kill him!
Your Majesty, you must be muddled.
I am a person that guards the Song empire. I am Song's deity.
Even if you are the emperor, you won't be able to send a normal human to kill the representative of god.
Any person who disobeys the deity will suffer heaven's retribution.
I was once disrespectful to you.
That was also for the greater good.
Your Majesty is benevolent. You surely won't blame me for it, right?
What do you think?
May Your Majesty forgive Imperial Astologer.
You all dared to threaten His Majesty?
Imperial Astrologer, say it. Why did you come here?
Your Majesty's throne came from improper means.
There are numerous discussion among the people.
Princess Shanyin is the official descendant of the imperial family.
She is also the biological sister of the deposed emperor, Liu Ziye.
If she said that the deposed emperor Liu Ziye voluntarily yielded the throne to you,
won't your throne know be perfectly justifiable.
Princess Shanyin's existence is to stop the gossiping mouth of the people.
For you, there is just benefits and no harm.
Your Majesty! I thought about it carefully and I the more I felt that something is wrong!
That woman is not Liu Chuyu at all!
Kill him!
Drag him out.
Imperial Astrologer, where is Princess Shanyin now?
Princess Shanyin is just waiting outside your palace.
- Go there to look! - Yes!
Hurry! There!
Let's go.
Junior Brother Rong Zhi, why must you do this?
Wei is an unending mire.
I promised mother that I will take care of Feng Ting forever.
But I already had enough of a scheming life like this.
Now that her wings are full, and I've already handed her the opportunity,
there are no more debts between us.
We both are free now.
You asked me to travel far to find that magical rock
to amuse Liu Chuyu so she can laugh heartily, it shows how deep your love is for her.
What then is your reason in faking your death in front her causing her to grieve and cry?
Because I want her to forgive me.
And etch me in her heart and bone. Only by me dying
will she understand
if the lying is more important
or my life is more important.
Aren't you being to heartless towards her?
She is naturally stubborn and unwilling to turn back.
She doesn't even want to face her real heart.
Only by doing this will she be willing to love me again.
What if she decides to forget you?
I will use a more tragic death to carve a deeper impression in her mind
to make her love me forever and love only me.
Rong Zhi o Rong Zhi,
you are indeed the most heartless person in the world.
You and that high and lofty Wei Empress Dowager are really biological siblings.
Senior Brother, what is the meaning of this?
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
Don't forget. Feng Ting is not only your sister,
she's also my junior sister.
She has already guessed that you will use the trick of a cicada shedding off its carapace.
Looks like she gave you a higher price.
It's just that I never thought
that despite me already being at this situation, she still wanted to squeeze dry her own little brother remaining value.
Too bad. Lamentable. Too pitiful.
That's why, just be obedient and go back with me.
Senior Brother, even if I am badly injured,
it doesn't mean that I don't have any power to fight you.
Rong Zhi, in dealing with a scary person like you,
how could I be unprepared?
Rong Zhi, sorry.
Heart devouring poison can make you obediently follow commands from now on.
By the time you wake up,
you'll just become an obedient sword of Empress Dowager Feng.
Princess, the banquet will be starting soon.
Come with me.
I still can't forget him.
What did you say?
Let's go.

[The Supreme Audience Hall]
Chuyu, the past has gone to past.
You should live now for the citizens of the world.
Help me to assist justice.
Stop Pavilion Master's scheme.
Look for an upright and wise emperor.
This is what your future path should be.
