[Legend of Fuyao]
[Episode 35]
Lord! The one in front is already Yao City.
The sky is about to go dark and that's when bugleweeds are most abundant.
I'll go look in the cliff over there. You all just stay here and wait for me.
Okay. Let's rest here and recondition ourselves for a while.
Xiaoqi, quickly bring the water!
Okay.
Here.
Girl.
I once hoped...
...that since we're fated,
...I'll guard by your side...
....and fight destiny's arrangement with you.
I initially thought that I can prepare everything...
....and live the rest of our lives in peace.
I was too arrogant. When we reunited,
if I didn't fool you that I'm Yuan Zhaoxu...
I didn't tell you that I'm the Crown Prince of Megrez Empire.
You're Crown Prince? You...
His trusted aide. I'm Yuan Zhaoxu.
...if I didn't ask Zong Yue to hide this matter from you...
...if I could have been more vigilant,
- things might not have ended up like this today. - Liar.
There are not truths in anything that you say. I won't believe you again.
You liar!
Girl...
You're right. I am a liar.
You suffered great pains because of me.
I beg you...wake up.
As long as you're able to wake up,
no matter if you hit or scold me,
I'll be happy to endure them. As long as you wake up,
I surely will give you an explanation.
Xiaoqi, come over here.
Zong Yue, you're back!
How did it go? Did you find the herbs?
Do you want to save Fuyao?
Of course, I do!
Are you still a virgin?
Why are you asking that?
Hold this.
Give me your hand.
Why?
Give me your hand.
Zong Yue, what are you doing?!
Do you want to help Fuyao or not?
Of course, I do.
Lessen your nonsense then.
Zong Yue! No, Mister Zong, I faint when I see blood.
Don't move!
Mister Zong, I really will faint.
Xiaoqi, come over here!
Crown Prince, think of a way.
Use mine.
Divide this bugleweed into 7 portions and make Fuyao drink them
every 6 hours.
Mister Zong, after drinking that, Older Sis Fuyao will get better already, right?
Although this bugleweed is mystical, it can only provide temporary relief.
To completely cure her,
we must find that Divine Physician Starlight, Fang Yimo.
I saw a royal pigeon flying by earlier.
Are there changes happening in Megrez?
I openly disobeyed Royal Father's orders.
It's expected for Royal Father to be very mad.
Royal Mother now has sent out a huge army to find me.
She wants me to immediately return and apologize to Royal Father.
I fear that it won't be as easy as apologizing.
Empress Yuan is rushing you to return
must be because she wants your marriage finalized, so you can firmly stay in your Crown Prince position.
You are the Crown Prince of Megrez Empire.
The orders of your parents and the suggestions of a matchmaker aren't something that can be disregarded that easily.
That is not what I'm worrying the most about.
It's just a minor matter to get punished. I just fear that Royal Father will not let her off anymore.
Only by returning can I ensure her safety.
Moreover, Folian is still in the palace right now.
Why did Fuyao pretended to be her? I must investigate that matter clearly.
I will not let anyone who hurt her go.
Don't worry.
You have me here. Fuyao will be alright.
Girl, believe me.
We'll surely find a better way.
Wuji is about to return.
Just stay here in the palace for a few more days.
Thank you Empress for your care.
But it will take some days for Crown Prince to return.
I just happen to saw some refugee arriving in the city. I want to go help.
It's rare that you have such a kind heart.
Okay then. As long as you stay here in the imperial city, I'm at ease.
Your marriage with Wuji...
...indeed should be finalized.
Mister Zong, we've been here in Yao City for so many days.
How come Older Sis Fuyao is still not waking up?
Her poison was too strong. Buggleweed is half a medicine, half a poison too.
One can't easily wake up from it.
Ha? What should we do then?
Will Older Sis Fuyao not wake up anymore?
- Mister Zong, it's not that I don't believe you, I'm just a bit worried. - Are you done already? - I'm done. Let's quickly leave.
Don't worry. In this trip, I'm going to meticulously choose some supplements for Fuyao.
In a few days, she will wake up.
Mister Zong, if you have any errands to do, just instruct me.
Although I'm not that smart, I surely will fulfill any task you give me.
Don't. Quickly leave. If we still don't, it will be too late.
- Our house is gone again. - Mother. - Auntie...
Sorry to bother you. May I ask what's going on?
- You must be an outsider. - Right. - Quickly leave.
- This Yao City isn't livable anymore. - Why? - That's right.
It's because of the Black Tribe Gang.
- Black Tribe Gang? - Yes.
Black Tribe Gang has already annihilated several villages.
Everyone is saying that soon, they will be attacking Yao City.
This will soon become their lair.
No matter how remote Yao City is, it's still within the territory of the Megrez Imperial City.
How could they dare to be so bold?
Within the Megrez Imperial City?
Even if the Father Emperor comes, it's of no use.
This Black Tribe Gang will go steal
anything they lack. In this place where there are barren hills and turbulent rivers,
the Black Tribe Gang set up their foundation here.
Counting it, it has been several hundred years already.
An army to put them down has been sent 13 times.
In 7 of them, they claimed that they were already completely obliterated. But in the end, what?
- Weren't they still back from the ashes? - That's right.
The bandits are rampant and doing evil everywhere. Isn't your Yao City Magistrate doing anything?
That Magistrate Su and the Black Tribe Gang are in collusion.
As long as they don't disturb their Su Manor, that old man will not meddle in this matter.
Look at the Yao City now. What kind of life are the citizens living?
Stop talking. Let's quickly leave.
Hurry. Let's go.
Your Majesty, no matter how angry you are,
you still have to take care of your health.
Your Majesty...
Let me do it.
Your Highness Crown Prince, you're finally back.
Quickly convince His Majesty. He hasn't eaten for so many days.

I am unfilial. May father punish me.
Punishing you is to make you realize your mistake,
but you totally don't know what you did wrong.
Before, even if you were unwilling,
you would never disobey me.
But now,
I fear that there isn't a Father Emperor in your heart anymore.
In my heart, Royal Father...
...has always been the supreme and venerated holy ruler of the Five Regions.
I also never had any thoughts of being disloyal and unfilial.
Haven't you done it already?!
You already fought your way out of Shangyang Palace.
- What else can you not dare to do? - Royal Father, please calm down.
Since I started to remember, I was raised by my wet nurse.
The servants around me sees me as their master. They dare not go beyond any limits.
Royal Father has an imposing bearing. Royal Mother distanced herself from me. Older Brother and I had a barrier between us.
People with the same age as me just treated me as the Crown Prince.
It was hard to have any bosom friend.
People in this world only see how honorable my identity is, but they don't know
the lonesomeness of not being allowed to make any mistakes.
But Fuyao is different from all the ladies I've seen.
She's arrogant and unyielding.
She is smart and chivalrous. I have never seen a person like that.
She's like another me that walked out of my heart.
Royal Father...
...I never thought of disobeying you because of her.
The more I never thought of giving up my future because of her.
But when I learned that you're having her executed,
I then realized that I can't lose her.
This is a love that I never experienced.
Royal Father, you're right.
Love is indeed a blade that can harm oneself.
But love made me become a person with heart and flesh.
For so many years, it was my first time feeling...
...that seeing a person and being with her is such a joyous occasion.
I never had anticipated for eternity...
...by this much.
Royal Father, I disappointed your trust!
I'm willing to accept any punishment! But I beg you to let Fuyao go!
Even if you will lose the Crown Prince position?
Even if I will lose the Crown Prince position.
You're now a grown up.
Just do as you wish.
Princess Folian. Crown Prince Wuji asks to see you.
Wuji?
It's you.
I just knew that you'll return to see me. In your heart, you still have me.
I heard a folk story recently. I want to share it with you.
I like anything that you say.
This story talks about a girl who got lucky
and obtained a precious treasure, an anti-poison bead. With this bead,
she will never get sick or poisoned. This girl then thought,
"Since I'm different from others, why don't I do something more brilliant?"
Guess what she did.
She learned a witchcraft that can spread a deadly plague.
But she has that precious item. No matter how deadly the plague is, it won't affect her.
From then on, she traveled the Five Regions to do good deeds.
People really treated her as a kindhearted Bodhisattva.
Coincidentally, I know this person.
Just to become a lotus-like holy and pure lady,
she would first commit a monstrous evil act and then pretended to practice good deeds.
People instead treated her as a live Bodhisattva.
But I know how cruel and evil her heart truly is.
In this world, there is really such a sinister person?
It was also an eye-opener for me.
If I get the chance to meet this person,
I surely will give her proper guidance.
Since in this richly ornamented room,
someone is unwilling to face her true self in the mirror,
fine then. Why don't we change to another venue?
Maybe you'll be more awake there.
Wuji, what are you doing?
Carefully look at it yourself.
Palaces and temples, thatched cottages and humble homes,
aren't these all material things
that you didn't bring with you when you were born and won't bring with you when you leave. There is heaven and earth.
There is this absolutely sincere heart of mine.
With these, what else must I fear?
You're indeed very correct. I won't disturb your quiet rest then.
Since you left, Fuyao persisted in taking her medicines and has greatly improved.
In a few days, she will be able to normally ambulate.
She will be the exactly the same as how she was before she got poisoned.
It's just that the buggleweed is both a cure and a poison.
Although it can temporarily suppress her past poison, to ensure that Fuyao is completely rid of it and her life won't get endangered,
we still need the unique antidote of Divine Physician Starlight.
Prince Assist surely have one or two of it. You must get it.
- A few days ago, I asked someone outside the palace to buy me a lot of foundation and lipstick. - Really?
Right.
- How dare you?! You dare laugh at me?! - We dare not...
You dare to laugh at me?! Try laughing—
Who is it?! Wuji?!
Rise first and leave.
Why are you venting your anger on the servants?
Servants? I just have to vent my anger on them. Do you know why?
It's because your girl harmed and destroyed me!
Harmed you where? Destroyed you where?
You want to give it a try? I've already died once. I'm not afraid of death anymore!
Not afraid of death, is that it?
The Emperor has a decree. Calling for Crown Prince and Prince Assist for an audience.
The matter has passed. But Wuji, you still won't stop.
You two are brothers with same blood.
Pingrong has also suffered because of it, but you still are unforgiving.
It's not worth it, right?
Of course, I understand that all my actions are not worth it.
Even if there is any enmity between us brothers,
outsiders mustn't know about it.
Because Royal Father said that reputation is the most important in the royal clan.
Hence, these past years, I've covered up older brother's ugly activities.
For example, raping female commoners, land grabbing and stationing of troops without permission.
Another example, conniving with the Black Tribe Gang and selling the nation for glory (betraying the country).
Continue saying it.

Wuji...
Can you be obedient? You're still not fully recovered, so why did you sneak out again? You're making us worry.
I'm about to have bed ulcers from staying in bed for too long. Do you plan to take care of me for the rest of my life then?
But Mister Zong already said that you can't get blown by the wind, catch a cold, and get extremely angry.
- The more you can't be here getting blown by dust— - Stop saying it.
You kept saying "Mister Zong".
Have you been with him for too long?
From now on, will you be talking weirdly like this?
I will not be like him.
Older SIs Fuyao, look over there. Isn't the village on fire?
Could it be those bandits again?
Hey, where are you going? Don't go. It's dangerous. Wait for me!
A few months ago, Royal Father sent an army to South Clan to annihilate the bandits.
In less than 10 days, a victory report came saying that the First Royal Son
was so valiant and mighty that he was able to suppress the Black Tribe Gang.
But from what I know, it wasn't like that.
Prince Assist and the head of Black Tribe Gang, Chigui, made a treaty
that in exchange of thousand liang of gold and silver, 30,000 armors and swords,
South Clan will be left in peace for half a year. In this half year,
Black Tribe Gang made a guarantee to not attack any interior territory of the Megrez Imperial City.
But they didn't agree to not attack and loot the local area.
Now, I fear that the citizens of South Clan are in the midst of an abyss of suffering.
Kill them all!
South Clan is a border territory. Since the Black Tribe Gang was created,
in these past 100 years, wars there hasn't stopped. It has become a lawless place.
At an extremely harsh place like that,
it's not easy to survive.
If an elite and strong group of bandits like that will be using the military equipment of the imperial city
- to commit heinous crimes and prey on the citizens, - Mother...
who else can provide justice for the citizens? Who can care about their lives?
This move by Prince Assist may look wise.
One, he was able to maintain his reputation with a victorious return from battle.
Secondly, he was able to ask for a half year of peace in exchange for assistance.
Third, he and the leader Chigui made a pact
that if he ever try to usurp the throne one day,
Black Tribe Gang will surely do their best to help him.
Where did you hear those? Why are you slandering my name in front of Royal Father?!
Traitor! Privately transporting military armors. Harboring the criminals.
You abandoned the lives of the citizens of South Clan.
Your Highness, is this deal of yours quite a good bargain?
Is there really such a thing?!
Royal Father, I'm innocent! Even if I'm that bold,
I dare not collude with the bandits.
May Royal Father investigate it clearly!
Continue saying it.
This matter isn't just an internal affair of the royal clan. It concerns the crucial interest of the state.
I earnestly ask Royal Father to let me personally go to South Clan and investigate this matter clearly.
Investigate it.
If First Royal Son is really involved in this matter,
for fairness, may I ask Royal Father to allow me to commit Prince Assist for trial.
I will allow it.
Pingrong, your stupidity, I can endure it.
Your arrogance, extravagance, and womanizing behaviors, I also tolerated it.
Betraying your country and conniving with the enemy?
I will not tolerate it!
Royal Father...
Endure it a little.
Don't be afraid. I came to help.
Let me do it.
Don't be afraid. Let me help you.
Don't be afraid.. Come...
This Black Tribe Gang has been bullying us for so long. Even if there are hundreds of people in our village,
not one dared to say a word about it.
If this continues, how are we still going to live in this village?
That's right. The village butcher killed one bandit.
Don't know when they'll be back to seek revenge.
If you can endure it, just do. At most, we'll just suffer some losses. If we go against them,
- none of us can rival with them. - That's right.
The more you grin and bear it like this, the more they will keep on bullying you.
Miss, there's something that you don't know.
Here in Yao City, the officials and bandits have colluded. The evildoers can do whatever they want. It's been lawless here for such a long time.
What's most important is for us to survive.
No law? That's bad indeed.
Wait here.
Hey, where are you going?
That bastard inside Yao City's local government office has been working against his mandate.
- I must go look and get us some justice. - Hey! You...
Miss, you mustn't go!
Fuyao!
Older Sis Fuyao, it's already so late. People are definitely not going to care about you.
Let's hurry and go back.
Don't think I don't know. You're making yourself look like some top that kept spinning,
all because you don't want to have the time to think about Crown Prince Wuji.
What are you talking about?
If you're not willing to wait then you can leave first.
I know that you're lying. But the more you're like this, the more I can't leave. I must accompany you here.
- I don't want you to keep me company. - I'm going to keep you company then.
Who is it? It's in the middle of the night. Why are you drumming?
If you disturb our master's sleep, you surely will suffer.
Where is your magistrate?
Official Su, is asleep. Hurry and get lost.
Quickly go and inform him! Or else, I'll trash your local magistrate office!
No need to make a report.
Who is it? You're so bold to insult the might of my local office.
Are you treating my Megrez government as nothing?
You're the county magistrate? Sorry for being disrespectful.
You know now to apologize for being disrespectful?
But I will not drop your crime of disturbing me just because of those words.
Tie her up for public viewing for 3 days. Let this wicked citizen see the consequences of having no sense of propriety. Arrest her.
You are getting paid with government salary, but you bully and oppress the citizens. What punishment should you receive?
You dare insult and scold me? Arrest her!
Hold up.
Official Su, I fear that you can't casually tie this person up.
Who do you think you are that you can intruct me on what to do?!
Arrest him too!
A personal bodyguard of Crown Prince coming here to Yao City. Why didn't you inform us beforehand?
I really didn't know. Sorry for being rude and offensive.
If there is anything, just tell her. I'm just going to sit here and listen.
If needed, of course, I will truthfully report it to the Shangyang Palace.
No need to be courteous. It's not the time to be courteous right now.
Let me ask you this. The Black Tribe Gang is committing heinous crimes and is doing all kinds of evil. Are you just going to watch and do nothing?
This... this...
The Black Tribe Gang is overwhelming in number and strength. They are strong and valiant.
They also have heavy armors. It's not wise to provoke them.
We should think of a way to stave it.
Stave? You still can be like a coward turtle and staving it off here.
If they put a knife on your neck, can you still stave it off?
Seeing how the catastrophe is upon you, the citizens will soon fall into great misery,
as a human, how could you keep a blind eye?!
As the mother official of Yao City, how could you sleep soundly?
This...I'm already old.
If I'm able to contribute even a measly effort, I'm willing to risk my life for it. (sarcastically)
Official! Official...
What's the matter? Say it.
Say it. Hurry and say it.
Black Tribe Gang attacked Gushui Village overnight.
- Where are you going? - What are you doing?! I'm going to go look for them. Let me go!
- I want to save them! - Fuyao, calm down.
What we should do now is think of a way to completely eliminate them.
The more you're rash, the more you're bringing the villagers a fatal disaster.
I'm been in office for so many years. I was a coward and I helped the tyrants with their evil deeds.
I really have disappointed the sacred graces of Megrez Empire, disappointed the citizens of Yao City.
Now, the special envoy of Megrez Empire has come.
From now on, any affairs of Yao City will be decided upon by the special envoy.
There is such a thing?
Official, what medicine did you give me...
If in 3 days, Official Su doesn't get any antidote, you'll be accompanying the citizens of Gushui Village in their journey.
Speak. Are you going to send the soliders or not?
Official, spare me. I can't disobey the orders.
We don't have enouogh army strength. We're not their competition.
That Black Tribe Gang is within the jurisdiction of Megrez.
Their whole gang should have been naturalized and registered. Every year, they only have to pay taxes and grains for war needs, and never run amuck.
But now, not only did you not control them, you are even harboring them.
Are you not afraid that I report this to the Megrez Imperial City and let you get executed?
My talents are lacking and weak. I'm willing to let a more able person to take over my position. Please spare my life.
Yes. Yes.
In the future, as long as I am here, no one can bully you guys.
Yao City's sky is your sky.
Yao City's land is your land.
Whoever dares to bully you all, I surely will make him pay double the price!
Good!
Take a good look.
Folian...
...was not kind and virtuous.
She has brought shame to the ancestors of the Five Regions.
She has brought shame to the several generations of ancestors of Xuanji.
Now is a an unusual time. I'm willingly canceling...
...my marital engagement with the Crown Prince of Megrez.
Since that year that you came to Plough Nation,
My heart... only has Your Highness.
This kind of yearning is way firmer than you can imagine.
Even if you easily believed those slanderous lies of others,
insist on looking at me as some heartless, ruthless, and immoral person,
my conscience is clear.
And I'm not willing to just casually give up.
Wuji,
I won't give up on this marriage.
Oh?
You're leaving again?
I just want you to meet someone.
Say it.
