Episode 12
Are you King Kang Zhao Gou?
Yes, I am.
You look so young,
and you have great responsibilities.
You must have a hard time.
But it seems like Song dynasty
has no capable man there.
Song dynasty is strong,
and we have a lot of capable people.
And I'm the least capable one,
that's why I'm sent here.
You don't sound like a hero when you
blast off on the spur of the moment.
I hope you do the same thing on the battlefield.
I don't wish to... But even the kids
know the story of Yan Zi as
ambassador to Chu, now that I feel
so ashamed that how it's put
on the negotiation table.
Do you know where you are?
We used to call this place Shang Qiu,
but now we call it Nanjing,
another name is Gui De.
How far is it from Bianjing?
Around 300 miles.
It means that we are not
just surrounding a city,
we even surrounded the
200 miles of south shore,
that's why we have a
chance to meet here.
What do you think?
According to what I know,
General Zong Ze,
Han Shizhong, Wang Yuan,
Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun
are deploying forces
to attack Bianjing.
We can't say who will win.
Zong Ze...
Han Shizhong, Liu Guangshi,
Zhang Jun, how far are they?
I would say around 10 days' journey.
We've been here for 2 months,
why haven't we seen
any of King Qin's troop?
It's not the distance problem,
it's whether they dare
to fight and battle with
Jin's troops.
How is it?
You were defeated.
It's determined.
If it wasn't for the king
being kind, then you have
to thank king of Jin
for being grateful.
But my brother asked me to come,
and make a statement that
we still can discuss about the compensation.
But our ancestor said that
our land cannot be shared,
it's impossible to give you the land.
We can't settle this
negotiation in 1 or 2 days.
We can only ask King Kang
and officers to rest here,
while I report it to
the king to decide.
Crown prince,
can I ask Song
dynasty King Kang something?
Please ask.
What books do you usually read?
I read the Art of War.
Art of War?
King Kang should know
that even if you finish
reading the Art of War, those
warriors will not improved.
They will soon become
the soul under our knives.
Can I know if this bow belongs to you?
No one will be bend this
bow other than me.
Can you let me have a try?
King Kang.
We, the Song people loves
to be peaceful rather
than battling in the field.
Benevolence means to love others,
it means wisdom and courage.
Officer Qin,
look at this...
Master,
please take care.
Master...
King Kang was fatigued by this long journey.
I would advise that you
don't stay too long here.
It's better if you get back soon.
Officer Qin is right.
He's right.
Why don't I asked
someone to prepare the carriage.
Wait...
If we go back now, I'm
afraid they will suspect us.
Everyone heard what we
talked about today.
They are not simple.
They were humiliating
us at the palace just now,
They wouldn't let us go
on the compensation.
They won't let us
leave so easily.
What shall we do?
What can we do?
Your Majesty...
I would like to say something.
Please say it.
I think... We can only
talk about other affairs now.
Yue Fei.
You are so young,
what do you know?
Then...
How to distract him?
The fourth prince, Jin Wushu
suspected you when he
sees you are so young.
Counsellor Hamichi actually
was only flying a kite. I think
he might still be suspecting
whether you are the real one.
If we say that we are leaving now,
it might increase their suspicion.
It might caused us not able to
leave and might be in a dangerous situation.
According to my opinion,
why don't Your Majesty
just relax and rest
at this place and
take good care of yourself.
Officers,
I think what
Yue Fei said is right.
Then...
I will stay at this place
and relax for a few days,
see what they can do about me.
Master,
although we need
to pretend so that they won't
keep an eye on us,
but actually we
need to let Yue Fei
to arrange a retreat for
us just in case.
Don't worry, I
already have an arrangement.
How old is Zhao Gou?
Fourth prince...
According to me,
he's 23 years old.
They still have a few
capable people,
other than Zhao Huan,
the other one will be Zhao Gou.
The others would be still young,
we still can't see their potential.
What is the comparison between Zhao Huan and Zhao Gou?
The old emperor planned to pass
the throne to Zhao Gou,
but not to Zhao Huan.
In his eyes, Zhao Gou should
be stronger than Zhao Huan.
Since Zhao Gou is stronger,
then why is Zhao Huan the emperor?
Because the old emperor
does not like Concubine Wei.
Concubine Wei would like his son in
the position but she can't say that.
Since he didn't like her,
why did she pick her?
When she was young,
she had good memory,
she can say some jokes
to make the emperor happy.
Then she stopped saying jokes
and talked about the
facts about country, so he
didn't want to listen,
and neglected her.
Counsellor, I have
something that I don't understand.
Zhao Gou doesn't look like he
came from a rich family, he looks
like a son to some warriors.
He can easily pull open
my heavy bow, that actually
surprised me.
That's why, no matter
he is the real one or not,
I must kill him.
Do not worry,
Let me settle him.
Miss Susu,
why is it you?
Liang Xing asked me to protect you.
Just now...
I heard something
beside the camp...
Wushu told
his people that they
will kill you tonight.
Faster than I expected.
Thank you.
And thank brother Liang.
We'll meet again.
Wait.
How can you leave like this?
Have you figured out how to escape?
I have brothers outside,
I'll send a message to them.
Then you can escaped,
what about our master?
What if something happened to him?
I can help you bring the message.
Since I can come in,
it means I can go out.
You don't trust me?
If you don't trust me,
you should trust Zhong Yi agency.
Liang Xing has already
arranged on this matter.
Okay.
Thank you.
Please pass this letter to a person
called Wang Gui in Gui De Inn.
Don't worry.
We are outside now,
but we still have to squeeze.
What is wrong?
Okay.
This won't be long.
Who is it?
I'm from Zhong Yi agency.
Yue Fei let me send a
letter for Wang Gui.
Why did a girl come
in the middle of night?
I'm sorry, my brother is rude.
It's okay.
You are Wang Gui?
Yes, I am.
He is Fu Qing,
and he is Niu Gao.
We are brothers to Yue Fei.
Yue Fei lets me pass this letter for you.
They are being controlled
by the Jins right now.
We need to think of
something and save them.
I knew it!
I knew they are
up to something no good.
Let's go.
We'll save them now.
Get your stuff!
Niu Ba-er, Fu-Qing...
Hold on...
The camp must have
a lot of layers
and ambushes in it.
By the time we rush in like this,
something might have
happened to them.
Wang Gui.
Why did you laud the spirit of the enemy
and belittle that of our own?
We must save brother Yue.
Yes.
What are you afraid of?
Let's go.
Wang Gui is right.
If you are willing to trust me,
I can help you get in.
Please say it.
Miss...
please tell us your idea.
Please come in.
Why did the counsellor
invite me in the middle of the night?
You do understand,
why do you still pretend
to ask me question?
It won't do. It won't do.
Please tell if there's
anything that fourth
prince need help at.
I will not reject any request.
What are you saying?
He won't let you die.
He wants you to enjoy the wealth.
I did nothing, so
how can I enjoy wealth?
But the fourth prince need
a favor from Sir Zhang.
The Fourth prince wants Zhao
Gou to have to no return ways.
No, this is not going to work.
No?
We don't kill the messenger.
And he's your highness.
So Sir Zhang means
you can use your life
to exchange for his life?
I'm useless.
Sir Zhang...
You should know our prince's temper.
He will not take back
what he had said.
This...
Do not worry.
I will settle it.
Even after it's successful,
you will not be involved.
And the fourth prince said
that when the time has
come, he will make you a king,
and change to Chu.
What do you think?
You are a smart man,
as long as we play a small trick,
I'm sure the snake will come itself.
You will only need to bring a message.
Just tell them that you heard
that they will kill Zhao Gou tonight.
Zhao Gou has to leave.
I'll prepare the horse,
open the door,
and send him out.
Once he's on the street,
my archers will target
him and shoot him
to his death.
When the fourth prince asked,
I will say that King Kang
stole the classified graph
and tried to run away.
But he died being shot.
Then in Song's court,
you have nothing to be blamed for.
Counsellor, you are so smart
Sir Zhang, you have
two masters now.
King Kang. King Kang.
Come in.
King Kang-
I heard that...
Sir Zhang, you are right at time.
I received a secret signal
saying that someone might kill your highness.
We have to leave now.
Quick!
Master.
Let's go.
Quick! Quick!
Master.
Sir Zhang. Master Qin.
Please come.
Sir Zhang,
ride the horse.
Follow us.
Go!
Everyone,
it's safe here,
please stay.
Master.
How can anybody
stay in this place?
Oh really?
I find it quite good.
Master,
he is the leader of
Zhong Yi agency,
Liang Xing.
King Kang.
Hero.
Thank you everyone.
You're welcome.
We should do it.
Please rest at this place.
When the boat comes,
we'll send you over.
Please have a seat,
I'll get some food.
Have a seat.
Brother Liang,
the Jins didn't chase after us.
Are you sure?
Yes.
Come, have some food.
Everyone, please
bear with us.
Thank you. Thank you.
There's a weird taste in the water.
I can't drink it.
This biscuit...
It's hard like a rock.
How do I eat it?
No, I find it quite tasty.
Everyone.
I thank everyone for
helping us out of danger,
especially Yue Fei and you.
Let me drink with you all.
Cheers!
Yue Fei...
You are hardworking.
Master Qin...
Have a seat.
Although we went through
twists and turns on this journey,
I am lucky to
witness a smart and
brave man. Yue Fei, you
are decisive and determined.
When we get back later,
you and me, both of us
can work together.
One externally and one internally,
let's do something big.
Thank you Master Qin.
Civil minister can write,
martial ministers can fight,
as long as they work
together, we can make
Song a better country.
You are right.
The Jin army is here.
Brother Liang.
What's the matter?
We've been surrounded by Jin troops.
Impossible.
You said they didn't chase after us.
Yes.
Then how did it happen?
It's weird.
Zhao Gou,
you can't escape.
Get out here now,
I can spare your life.
Yue Fei.
What are you doing?
Brothers,
please chop the table stand.
Chop as many as you can.
Kill!
Zhao Gou escaped from there.
Go!
Master.
Brother.
The troop is chasing after us.
Protect King Kang.
Get me the horse.
Master.
Get up!
Save me!
Don't be afraid,
Niu Ba is here.
King Kang-
Come up.
Brother.
Quick! Get up!
Go!
Your majesty.
Your Majesty!
Brother.
Please rise.
Come.
Please rise.
You had a hard time.
Your Majesty.
I'm lucky to be able to escape
because of blessing from my ancestors.
I'm glad that you
are helping me.
But...
Your Majesty,
what is it that you're worried about?
I would like to
have a gathering with
you when you're back,
but you left before telling them.
The Jins are very angry.
I believe that you can see
the whole city has been surrounded.
What do you mean?
I want you to go
back to their camp.
What?
Brother.
You have great responsibilities.
Before the agreement is made,
don't even come back,
or else you will involve
the country and the people.
Even I, will be blamed
for not sending you back.
Your Majesty,
those people tried to kill me.
If I wasn't able to escape,
I'm afraid I can't stand here now.
Your Majesty,
you are pushing me away.
If I can die to save the
country, I don't mind.
But...
They don't keep their promise,
their intentions are obvious.
Even if I sacrificed myself,
how can you keep your country?
What you mean is
they are not negotiating,
they want to destroy us?
Your Majesty.
Actually there is turning point.
I heard that Zong Ze
is trying to recruit people,
I'm willing to go and
help King Qin's troop.
King Qin?
Yes.
I confer you as the Marshal,
you go now and
meet up with Zong Ze,
gather the troops,
and defend the country,
return in triumph.
Brother.
Yes.
Take my orders.
You have not battled,
and you are not good at it.
Why did the emperor
let you be the Marshal?
I wanted it myself.
Why is that?
There's only one
way to this solution.
This is my best
chance to prove myself.
But what I'm worried is that
the Jin armies have surrounded the city.
It all depends to the Gods
on whether I can succeed or not.
Even if I succeeded,
can we hold on to it?
These are unknown factors.
Master.
Why are you looking at me?
I want to remember you,
remember your face.
If anything happens to me...
There is no if...
And there won't be...
Promise me, that you
will come back safely.
If there's no Song,
there will be no home.
Yi'er...
I promise you that
I will come back safely.
Master.
Yue Fei and others are here.
They are waiting for you.
Mister.
I'm worried about him,
please take care of him.
Thank you.
Mistress.
Don't worry, I'll take
good care of him.
Master.
Please be quick.
Do you have anything to tell me?
