[Legend of Fuyao]
[Episode 10]
Master Zhang, a gentleman has come to see you.
Who is he?
He refused to tell me.
Some housekeeper you are.
You actually let in some random visitor who asked to see me.
Where is he now?
Attack! Bite it!
Attack!
Fight!
- Bite it! - Bite!
- Bite it! - Yes!
- Bite it! Quickly! - Attack!
Yes!
Bite it!
You're dismissed.
- Yes. - Yes.
Are you Censor-in-Chief, Zhang He Nian?
I am.
What about you?
What's your surname?
My surname is Xuanyuan.
Your surname is Xuanyuan?
Is it the same as the surname of the royal Xuanyuan family?
Exactly.
Do you know what the royal Xuanyuan family stands for?
I can become king!
You're quite arrogant.
Tell me. How are you going to have everyone acknowledge you as the king?
I can manipulate water.
Is that true?
Yes.
Anyone?
Anyone there? Bring some water here!
Why would you need to bring any water?
It's raining throughout the entire capital.
If you don't believe me
I can demonstrate the Xuanyuan family's power of manipulating water.
Even for the royal Xuanyuan family
mastering the power to control water isn't easy.
You're still very young.
Aren't you afraid you'll embarrass yourself before everyone?
No!
[Elder Statesman Manor]
Master.
These are calling cards from officials
who wish to see you this morning.
I just returned, but these people simply can't wait, can they?
Tell me who they are.
The Head of the Royal Secretariat and Prince Si sent their men.
The Chamberlain, Central Commandant, and the Protector-General came in person.
As for the others, they are just trivial officials.
Haven't Zhang He Nian's men taken any action?
General of Dignity, Liu He, did call.
But I heard that Zhang He Nian criticized him
for ditching his honor when tempted by money.
They're no longer friends.
I'm afraid he has come here to seek patronage from you.
How could I possibly like someone who Zhang He Nian doesn't favor?
Get someone to report his misdemeanors.
Although the General of Dignity is a fourth-rank position
replacing him with Yan Jing Chen is quite fitting.
Yes.
Help me up.
Zhang He Nian really is patient.
The flood in the capital is about to break out
and yet he doesn't dare to discuss it with me.
What does he have in mind?
Master Yun.
[A teenager claiming to b of the Xuanyuan lineage...]
[Who manipulates water, is at Zhang He Nian's manor.]
Godfather, I know the reason.
Speak.
He has found another descendant of the Xuanyuan family.
Your Highness.
Have you sent her there?
Zhang He Nian has taken her to meet the king.
He's really impatient.
That's fine.
He should know that Qi Zhen planted many spies in his manor.
Instead of giving Qi Zhen a chance to tackle him
he might as well strike Qi Zhen first.
He is smart.
But I can't figure it out.
Why would Your Highness make such a move?
She's still a child. What if she--
I just need you to keep her alive.
As for the consequences, leave them to me.
Your Highness, if you reveal your identity to Zhang He Nian
and have him assist you to the throne
wouldn't that be safer?
I've spoken out of turn.
Please forgive me, Your Highness.
You've served me for so many years.
Don't you know what's at stake here?
Qi Zhen must be the one to assist me to the throne.
Then, we'll wipe out his men.
Wouldn't that be as easy as pie?
We clearly wiped out all the other descendants of the Xuanyuan family!
How did this person show up?
Could Zhang He Nian have plotted it all along?
That may be possible.
Godfather, think about it.
That day, when the prince went missing from Mount Xuanyuan
wasn't it suspicious?
We tracked him all along
but we never found out how he was informed or managed to escape.
If he really didn't escape, but was actually abducted...
Do you mean that one of my men has been tipping off Zhang He Nian?
We'll have to take precautions.
I knew that Xuanyuan Min is more than meets the eye
and that he doesn't take my side.
You have a point in guessing that.
If this is what Zhang He Nian planned...
Could it be that what he's after...
is what I'm after?
This is getting interesting.
Whose child are you?
My father is Prince of Xinnan, Xuanyuan Shi.
Prince of Xinnan?
[Late Emperor Xiaozhang, Xuanyuan Ce]
[Prince of Xinnan, Xuanyuan Shi]
My King.
I've found it.
He is under the lineage of the late emperor, Xuanyuan Ce.
Xuanyuan Ce?
It's been 70 or 80 years now.
I never imagined that there was still a descendant of this lineage.
This is really rare... really rare.
My King, this is quite odd.
What is the matter?
On the royal family tree...
Prince of Xinnan doesn't have any surviving offspring.
This...
This... I...
My mother wasn't married to my father.
She was a maid in his manor.
She died after giving birth to me.
That explains it.
According to Taiyuan tradition
only offspring from the legal marriage are recorded in the family tree.
As for... this young prince's parentage
it's only normal that his birth wasn't recorded in the family tree.
Master Zhang is wrong.
The record of the royal family tree serves as a reference
for the successor of the Taiyuan Kingdom.
If this person isn't recorded there
how can he be proven as the true descendant of the Xuanyuan family?
I heard that the king is attending the royal court again?
Master Zhang brought a young man
who claims to be a descendant of the royal Xuanyuan family.
He asked to meet the king.
Zhang He Nian is just fooling around.
The king is frail and has long been bedridden.
How could he overexert himself for a conniving swindler?
Indeed.
The king was still drowsy yesterday.
He wasn't very conscious.
But when he heard that there's still a descendant of the royal Xuanyuan family
he immediately summoned Master Zhang as well as other officials
to an audience with him today.
Master Nian, in the past, what you just said would've been reasonable.
However, the royal Xuanyuan family is now dwindling.
If we only refer to the family tree, find me a royal descendant if you can!
It's been months of torrential rain here in the capital.
The capital is in danger of getting flooded.
As long as we can find a descendant of the royal family
to assist the king in controlling the rain
save the people from a disaster
and safeguard the thousand-year-old foundation of the Taiyuan Kingdom
that would be our greatest blessing.
Do you really care about whether his name is on the family tree?
Although that might be true
he can't just claim to be a descendant of the royal family
and expect us to take his word.
If it was handled that way
what about the ancestral code and the ceremonial rites?
I overheard your discussion!
Elder Statesman.
Elder Statesman, you've come just in time.
Elder Statesman--
Why insist on referring to the royal family tree?
There's only one way to verify a descendant of the Xuanyuan lineage.
The power to manipulate water.
Am I right, My King?
Then...
take him to the Royal Bureau of Meteorology.
We shall discuss the issue of the royal descendant later.
The Royal Bureau of Meteorology.
Did you all hear that?
Yes.
We'll arrive at the capital after crossing this bridge.
Must we cross the bridge right now?
If not, when?
We've already made it here.
There's no point in waiting.
The weather in Taiyuan is bizarre.
It was just sunny, but now it's pouring.
Why don't we cross the bridge when the rain subsides?
Shut up, woman!
If you say another word, I'll throw you in the water.
Comrades, watch your path and follow closely!
General Ji, who's coming after you?
Why is your master so anxious?
You'll have to ask the general himself.
After that battle in Qiongcang, the land was split into five territories.
Taiyuan Kingdom controls water.
However, water has its spirituality.
It can make a land prosper
but it can also flood and drown it.
Until everything is gone.
So only the people with the power to manipulate water
can rule the Taiyuan kingdom.
To do a good job, one must first sharpen one's tools.
Master Qi, I'd like to see how you'll play this game of chess.
The descendant of the royal Xuanyuan family?
Do you know what to do here?
Your Highness.
Don't be scared.
Come.
No!
The sky is leaking!
Zhang He Nian.
If he fails to manipulate the water, you'll be condemned for life.
Zhan Bei Ye!
Stop the rain!
Stop raining!
The sky is leaking!
The general can't swim!
Save him!
Zhan Bei Ye!
General!
Save the general!
Save me!
The dome is sealed!
- General! - General!
Quickly!
- Quickly! - Grab them!
General!
- General! - Quickly!
General!
- General! - General!
General!
General, wake up! General!
Hey!
- General! - Listen to me.
General!
- Hey! - Wake up!
Listen up!
Your general must have swallowed too much water.
Get the water out of him.
- I'll do it! - I'll do it!
Quickly! General!
- He's so popular. - I'll do it!
- I'll do it!
Stop yelling! Stop it!
I'll do it!
Who is it?
[Princess of Qiongye Tribe, Ya Lan Zhu] Get lost! I'll do it!
Ya Lan Zhu! Why are you always around?
The tomboy is here again!
- Let go of me! - Go away!
Why are you here again?
Don't you know when to stop?
I'm not like that!
Fifth Brother can only be saved by me! I'll do it!
Run!
Fifth Brother!
You can never get away from me!
Congratulations to the heir apparent for successfully manipulating water!
[Elder Statesman Manor]
If you can abide by these three rules
I can go to the capital with you.
First.
I'm not fond of noise.
I don't like to socialize.
When I'm at the capital
I won't attend any social events.
Second
I'm picky about the people I employ.
All guards and servants attending to me must be my picks.
If you have any doubts about it
the deal is off.
Third, I practice medicine
but I also take lives.
If you want to make me a hypocrite by labeling me as a benevolent doctor
or some fake samaritan
I'm afraid I won't comply with it.
Don't come any closer!
[Breezy Bamboo Residence]
Young lady, please halt!
Young lady!
Our general told me to give you this.
Your general sure is funny.
Didn't he call me a thief a few days ago?
What does he mean, giving me a pouch of gold today?
Is he taking me to the local authorities with the stolen goods on me?
Young lady, you must be joking.
Our general is truly grateful to you for saving him.
He thinks it's best for a young lady
to have more money when traveling alone.
He has a point.
I'll accept this bag of gold.
Don't hinder me from searching for Seven.
- I take my leave. - Don't leave in such a rush!
What's the matter?
There's nothing else, but you can't leave yet.
Our general said that he'll always be grateful to you for saving him.
But the culprit who stole the Englobement Bell is yet to be arrested.
Therefore, you're still a suspect.
I'm afraid... you'll have to keep traveling with us.
What do you mean by that?
I saved his life and he still thinks that I'm the one who stole the bell?
Yes, and no.
Our general said that we should keep matters apart.
His gratefulness is a personal matter.
As for the theft of the Englobement Bell
it's an official matter of the law.
He can't overlook the law because of his personal matter.
All right, enough said.
At the end of the day, I'm still a suspect
until that bell is found.
Yes, that is so.
If I were really the thief, I'd have let your general drown.
I wouldn't have saved him.
It's like being bitten by a dog for being kind.
How could our general be like a dog?
Your general is worse than a dog.
I'm going to reason with him.
Young lady, our general won't see you.
Zhan Bei Ye!
Why can't you see me?
Zhan Bei Ye!
Come out here!
Zhan Bei Ye!
Zhan Bei Ye, come out here!
Zhan Bei Ye!
Get out here!
Zhan Bei Ye!
Get out here, Zhan Bei Ye!
Don't you dare think of running away this time!
Our general isn't here.
Why don't you look for him elsewhere?
Do you think I was born yesterday?
I finally caught up with all of you.
If I can be fooled so easily, then my name is not Ya Lan Zhu!
- Step aside. - I'm not lying.
Step aside!
Come out here!
Zhan Bei Ye!
Who exactly is this young lady?
Get out here, Zhan Bei Ye!
Look at her outfit.
She's from the Qiongye Tribe.
Are you coming out here or not?
Get out here!
Who are you?
Why are you here with Fifth Brother?
Fifth Brother?
Are you his younger sister?
I don't want to be his sister.
I...
I want to be... his woman.
Zhan Bei Ye, get out here!
- Get out here! - Stop knocking!
Stop knocking!
No! I'll keep knocking!
Stop knocking! Stop it.
Our general has gone out.
Step aside!
- Stop knocking. - Step aside!
Stop knocking!
Although I managed to slip away, the capital is so big.
Where should I go look for Seven?
Steamed buns! Steamed buns for sale!
- Sir, I'll have one. - Hot steamed buns!
Sure.
Miss, here's your steamed bun.
Steamed buns for sale!
Hot steamed buns!
Please come have a look!
Bear this in mind.
If we come across any danger and get separated...
make this mark along the way.
Next.
Show me your travel documents.
What travel documents?
Shouldn't you take a better look?
This is the capital of Taiyuan Kingdom.
You can't enter without travel documents.
Why does that carriage get to go through?
That's the horse carriage from Elder Statesman's Manor.
Who would dare block its way?
Go away!
- Next. - Next!
The Elder Statesman Manor?
Elder Statesman, this concerns the survival of Taiyuan Kingdom!
Exactly.
He's only a young man in his early teens.
Please advise us on what we are to do next.
You should all leave now!
Godfather, you've had a long day, discussing political issues.
Why don't you retire to bed early?
It was just some torrential rain and a teenager.
Do you know what those old fellows just said?
They said that we should get along with Zhang He Nian harmoniously.
They said that we should put the interests of Taiyuan first.
They were also the ones who kept urging you to seize the throne.
They claimed to pledge their allegiance to you.
They're just fence-sitters, that's all.
Every man for himself, the devil takes the hindmost.
They just want to ensure that they get the best out of this.
Yun Hen, you saw it for yourself.
Only when facing difficulties is a person's true character revealed.
Bear that in mind.
Yes.
Has the ambassador of Tiansha Kingdom arrived?
He has already arrived secretly.
Is it Prince Lie, Zhan Bei Ye?
Yes.
He's known for his meritorious military service.
Although his political power was taken from him, he's not to be underestimated.
Keep this in mind.
He must be handled with caution.
I'll choose a day to visit him.
This matter must not be made known to anyone.
Godfather, rest assured.
Zhang He Nian has just found the descendant of the Xuanyuan family.
Now, he holds a trump card.
But he has no clue that the heavens favor me.
Xuanyuan Min is gone, but here comes Xuanyuan Hui.
[Breezy Bamboo Residence]
Show me your travel documents.
What travel documents?
When did you open your eyes?
I just wanted to see what you were up to.
You--
Let go of me!
You're such a jerk!
- I won't let go of you! - Just you wait!
Should we go in?
Are you stupid?
There's finally another woman in the general's room.
Would you like to take a look?
Get back to bed now!
Hurry up!
Do they have any brains?
That's about right.
Let me go!
Zhan Bei Ye!
You cheated!
Don't be a sore loser.
Let me go.
If you don't, I'll yell that you're molesting me.
The likes of you?
The likes of me?
I'm being molested!
Your General Zhan molested me!
Stop yelling!
You-- Are you some domesticated animal?
Are you upset?
Go on then! Pick another fight!
There's no point.
You've proven yourself to be a thief tonight.
It seems that I'll have to hand you over to the local authorities.
I saved you once!
That's why I spared you.
You're the very definition of the word "ungrateful"!
You knew that I'm after that travel document!
You want to enter the city secretly.
I told you, you're not going anywhere
until we find the Englobement Bell.
I'm going there to look for the Englobement Bell.
I don't mind telling you.
I saw Seven today.
Where is he?
Do you want to know?
- Why don't you-- - Don't bother telling me.
I never negotiate terms with anyone.
Bear this in mind.
Don't dream of leaving until we find the Englobement Bell.
Fine.
We'll just keep dawdling.
You'll have to get into the city sooner or later.
We'll see who outlasts the other.
Don't walk away.
Untie me first!
Zhan Bei Ye!
I'm being molested!
Zhan Bei Ye molested me!
He took my clothes off!
[Breezy Bamboo Residence]
I'll say this one last time.
You're not to follow me around again.
Why?
These roads aren't even yours...
Stop following me around.
- You-- - Hold on.
Why are you like this?
We happen to be going in the same direction, right?
She's just a girl so what's the issue with her tagging along?
It might be more believable to say that she's a boy.
I get along really well with her.
We clicked right away.
I want to take her with me.
Quit fooling around!
- Ji Yu! - Present!
Get her out of here.
Hold on.
You really are something.
I haven't even blamed you for mistaking me as a thief.
Don't you all know that I saved your general's life?
Are all generals so ungrateful?
Woman, don't push your luck!
I've already treated you kindly.
What more do you want?
How about...
Let's make a bet.
Whoever wins makes the final call.
- How about that? - Why should I?
Are you scared?
A great general is scared of making a bet with me.
That can't be right, can it?
Is he scared of losing to me?
Why is he scared to make a bet?
It can't be, can it?
He's a great general.
Fifth Brother doesn't like to look bad.
If you make him lose the bet in front of all his subordinates
how embarrassing would that be?
It really is embarrassing to lose to a girl in front of so many people.
How about we call it off?
Forget it, it's fine.
We won't make a bet. Forget it.
Enough of that!
What do you want to bet?
Look.
There are two urns in front of us.
We'll each throw three pebbles at our respective urns.
Whoever gets more pebbles into the urn wins.
How about that?
Aren't you worried that you'll lose?
I am.
But a man must keep his word.
I won't go back on my word.
But Fifth Brother is a marksman.
It's fine.
You--
Goodness!
How could the urn shatter?
