♫ I start to dance nimbly and gracefully ♫
♫ For what my beautiful face is frowned? ♫
♫ Without him, I'll drift with the current ♫
♫ My heart silently waits at the cliff of Firmament ♫
♫ Without me, he'll be lonely in this universe ♫
♫ My heart silently waits at the cliff of Firmament ♫
♫ The heaven, the earth, the sun and the moon are all in my bosom ♫
♫ How can I own the top freedom in this world? ♫
♫ There is no fear from my heart ♫
♫ Deep love won't hide, true love won't run short ♫
♫ Dreams give hopes through all the ages ♫
♫ Why go through storms and stress to be bright and beautiful? ♫
♫ There is no struggle from my heart ♫
♫ Swaying along with the wind ♫
♫ I can do anything freely ♫
♫ I enter my dreams easily and unrestrainedly ♫

[Legend of Fuyao]
~ Episode 63 ~
Empress Yuan, you have are of a very noble status. But at this moment,
you lowered down yourself and came here to send off a treacherous rebel.
If this gets out, it will cause embarrassment to the imperial clan. Your Highness,
immediately ask Empress to leave. Her actions
- are so scandalous! -If Royal Father asks about this,
I'll bear all the consequences.
Why must you do this? I'm a person that's about to die.
I'm not worthy for you to exert any more effort.
Why must you make yourself suffer?
Even if I'm unable to save your life,
I will never let Zhangsun Jiong get his way.
Our son...very good.
Very good.
You know everything?
I'll go look for Wuji now. I'll go beg him.
I'll beg him to let you go!
You must not! Yi'er, you must not!
- Jia... - You must not!
Let Zhangsun Jiong play this last move.
Only when I die will he stop and let you all live.
I don't want any chance to survive!
If Wuji makes this wrong move,
The scheme that Zhangsun Jiong devised for 20 years will be successful!
But for Wuji...
...a sin like this can't be forgiven by the heavens!
Don't say anything then! Don't say anything!
Wuji will be the emperor in the future. What he's doing now
is to kill the traitor and rebel of Megrez Empire!
- Everything else isn't important! Isn't important! Do you understand?! - Wuji!
Come over here!
- Jia...listen to me. - No! No!
Yi'er, I beg you already. Don't say it.
- Don't say anything, okay? - Believe me, I won't let you die.
- Wuji, quickly leave! Yi'er... Wuji, quickly proceed with the execution! - Jia...believe me!
- I won't let you die! - Yi'er...
- Wuji, come over here! - Don't say it, Yi'er!
- Don't say it! Quickly leave! - Belieive me.
- I will never let you die! - Leave!
Don't say it!
Jia...
Jia!
Jia...
Jia!
Wuji...
Was it him who took you two away?
Did he force you two...
Have you met with Empress Yuan?
These...
Were all these done by my Royal Father?
There are some truths...
...that shouldn't be said by me.
Your Majesty, you've waited the whole night.
Go back to your room and rest first.
It's here.
Your Majesty, a news from the military camp. Prince Virtue has been executed.
Good!
He is finally dead.
He's dead.
Prince Virtue is dead.
Zhangsun Jia is dead.
My little brother is dead.
It's good that he's dead. Good...
Since he's dead, everything is clean now.
Your Majesty!
Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?
Men! Men! Quickly call for the imperial physician!
Do you know who he is?
You were born during the Shangyuan Festival on the 15th of the 1st month.
That night, the moon was supposed to be at its fullest.
But that time, there was a lunar eclipse.
It was only the other half of the night when there was a bit of light.
The start of the eclipse...
...was very similar to the time we first met.
From then on,
every time I see you,
I will always remember him.
Who...is he?
Wuji, he is your real father.
Zhangsun Jiong setup this scheme for so many years,
just to assist you up the immensely dangerous and difficult supreme imperial throne.
He wants to watch you and Zhangsun Jia, father and son, killing each other.
He wants to kill all your loved ones who are by your side.
He wants to see...
...you get deserted by everyone else, while sitting in the throne of Megrez.
This is the empire that he wants to give you.
This is the revenge he wants to give you.
Why? Why?
Why must you tell me now?!
No! No!

Father...
When I was little, I didn't know about my true identity.
I kept pestering Uncle Zhou about it. He told me,
"Your true identity isn't important. What's important is who you are."
But at this moment,
I also don't know who I am, an illegitimate crown prince
or the disgrace of the Megrez imperial clan.
But so what? No matter how others brand you,
you are forever you. Those...
...who only cared about your status and power,
why must you care about them?
But even my closet kin was like that.
Maybe, from the start,
their lies and plots are all due to unavoidable predicaments.
The imperial palace might look glittering in gold and jade,
but it actually is the largest and most exquisitely made cage.
The imperial power it represents...
...is the item that can most easily confuse people in this world
and turn them into ruthless and heartless creatures.
Wuji, anyone who wants to obtain it...
...will all change in the end. They...
your Royal Mother, your Royal Father,
also, Prince Virtue,
they all lost to their desire for power, lost to their selfish reasons.
But you must know that...
...Wuji, you're not like them and you mustn't be like them.
Before...
...I only wanted to...be Royal Father's most doted person,
the royal son that he gives importance to the most.
I wanted to prove that I'm more worthy than anyone...
...to get this royal throne of Megrez.
I didn't care about any means. Fuyao,
I'm not as good as you think.
Yes.
But this is the real you. I've seen your fake faces,
and seen your true heart. I knew about your methods
and understood your limits.
Wuji, you are not them.
No matter what becomes of you, you will always be that best person in my heart.
We once said...
...that we will turn this Five Regions into what we want it to look like together.
I want to turn Five Regions into the image that we want,
hence, this is the heaven testing me.
Am I right, Fuyao?
I just hope that all these pain...
...will be bore by only me.
Look Wuji, what is this?
Look here.
Look, what is this moving thing?
It's my shadow.
Don't laugh at me.
When I was little, I was very scared of shadows.
I always wondered why this black thing followed me.
Will it hurt me?
I used to put on a fierce look
and wanted to duel with it.
Becuase back then, I always thought,
it would be so wonderful if this world was filled with only light.
Later, Uncle Zhou told me that our shadows follow us without leaving
because places with light will always have darkness.
Wuji... Maybe behind all of us, we have darkness that we cannot get rid of.
But that is only because in front of us is luminous light.
So, since we cannot shrug off our shadows,
then I hope that someone will face this luminous light together with me.
I hope that this someone is you.
Are you willing to go with me?
Crown Prince has arrived.
Your Highness, His Highness is waiting urgently to see you.
I'm afraid there is not much time left.
I arrived late.
You came back.
It's good you're back.
I can still see you once more.
See you once more.
Royal Father, you are still in your prime years.
Just recuperating for a few days and you surely will get fully cured.
Do you believe it?
The mandate of heaven must not be disobeyed.
What will come will eventually come.
Come here.
You've gotten thinner.
War is hard.
Since you were young,
you would carry everything by yourself.
All the pain inside,
no one helped you.
You could only experience it by yourself.
Inside the palace, servants are many,
those who are close are few,
and the trustworthy are few.
I... understand.
Emporer Father—
Let me finish speaking.
I have given you the throne of Megrez.
This is the highest position in the world.
And it is one that inflicts the greatest hatred.
No matter what you do,
right and wrong is not important.
Your dignity is the most important.
Do not be afraid of the wrong,
but be afraid when the people under you will think that you are wrong.
Remember.
What do you want to ask?
Ask now.
Emporer Father,
why?
Why?
You know it all?
Prince Virtue has already been executed. Royal Mother...
Empress Mother told me everything.
Yes, he died.
A treacherous rebel will never be buried inside the royal tomb.
I had his bone crushed and his ashes scattered.
Are you feel hurt now?
You are directly related to him.
So everything Empress Mother said was true?
Prince Virtue rebelling...
Father and son fighting each other.
Is this all a scheme you've laid out?
In my life, this is the thing I wanted to do the most,
that I've just accomplished.
Imperial Doctor! Come!
My time is up.
They cannot save me.
Let me see you.
Let me say two more things.
I hated two people the most in this lifetime,
myself, and
my younger brother, Zhuangsun Jia, Prince Virtue, your birth father.
Ever since he was born,
he could easily get everything dear to me.
Even this throne was a leftover of his.
So the day of my coronation,
I decided to take away everything he cared about.
A lifetime of stuggle.
He died, but he won.
I lost everything.
The only one remaining by my side is you.
But even you
are an illegitimate child of his and the Empress.
When you were little,
you were so smart, quick-witted, and so adorable.
Do you know how many nights...
...that I would look at you while you're sound asleep and ask myself...
...why couldn't I harm you?
Why couldn't I kill you?
I instead taught you literary works and proper etiquette,
the principles and techniques of being a ruler.
I taught you all kinds of strategy.
Why?
Since that's the case,
Royal Father...
...why must you pass down the throne to me?
It's because I'm your Royal Father.
You called me Royal Father.
I'm the emperor of the Megrez Empire of Five Regions.
They want a wise king.
I can only become a wise king.
From now on,
you will become me.
You will experience the lack of freedom that I did,
become ruthless and heartless like I did.
Slowly...
You will lose love.
You will become lonely.
But you will never hate me,
because I've given you...
...all the love I have in this lifetime.
Wuji, tell me.
Why...
...are you not my son?
Why...
...are you not...
Royal Father...
Son, you are still young.
Always be more careful.
Do you know that in the competition for royal power,
it's alwasy a life and death struggle.
I'm handing you the imperial stamp, military seal, and imperial decree badge.
I'm handing to you the management all of the state and military affairs of Megrez.
I'm already old.
I'm also handing to you the glory or insult and good health
of the remainder of my life.
You must promise me that you'll personally kill him.
Or else, I will never die in peace.
Set out to war. Kill Zhangsun Jia in my behalf.
Why...
...are you not my son?
Crown Prince has greatly won the favor of Father Emperor.
He is loyal, filial, benevolent, and of outstanding talent.
He is indeed a genius in managing the affairs of the Five Regions and assisting his generation.
Fulfilling the wishes of both the heaven above and the citzens below,
the throne is being passed on to the crown prince of Megrez, Zhangsun Wuji.
May the royal ancestors silently guard him and may the gods be witnessess.
Hope that everyone in this imperial government will pull together and work hard as a team
in serving the new emperor, to aim for a prosperity in the Five Regions that will last for centuries,
to come up with measures to maintain peace and stability in the empire.
[Libation]
Your Majesty still refused to see us?
How about you all go back first?
If His Majesty will call for you, I will immediately inform you.
It's been days since the past emperor died.
Now, there is mourning inside the palace, and the casket has already been transported out of the palace, everything is already final.
His Majesty shouldn't immerse himself in grief anymore.
The state affairs should take priority.
The deceased past emperor has left and will never return.
Not only official state affairs,
the inner palace has just finished drafting the by-laws and proposed expenses for his inauguration ceremony.
We still need His Majesty to personally approve it.
His Majesty actually knows all these.
It's just that...the former emperor left so suddenly.
His Majesty still misses him.
For the state affairs these next few days, had to trouble Prime Minister and General Lei to attend to them for now.
Just give His Majesty some more time.
[Memorial Tablet of deceased Father Emperor Zhangsun Jiong]
I already personally abolished my status.
I will never return to the imperial palace.
From now on, there won't be an Empress Yuan in this world,
only Yuan Qingyi.
I only wish...
...wish that my Ji'er...
...can obtain your happiness.
Not suffer from lovesickness anymore,
suffer the pain of separation.
There is a Winding Mind Nunnery in Mt. Green Bead.
My Ji'er, if you miss me in the future,
just go there to find me.
All the envoys from other nations that came to offer their condolences have been properly given a place to stay.
And those elegiac addresses that those scholars wrote for the national mourning,
they've been placed in the inner palace.
I've been to Winding Mind Nunnery.
Although it's a bit rundown,
it's a very tranquil place.
Empress Yuan...
...is doing quite well.
