[Legend of Fuyao]
~ Episode 41 ~
Do you know that
how sad I was when you left
without taking me with you?
That was the Geya Desert.
There are so many strange birds and beasts in there.
What if they had bitten and hurt you?
I even heard from Ji Yu that you encountered the poison bees.
Those can dissolve your bones with just one sting.
Where then can I look for you afterwards?
Good thing, you're great. No great danger can harm you.
But I'm not allowing you to do it again, you hear me?
Zhan Beiye, listen well.
If you dare think of leaving me again,
it won't be that easy.
I know that your heart only wants her.
I won't blame you for trying to save her.
But you're not allowed to die, got it?
If you don't come back, I won't be happy anymore.
Zhan Beiye,
can you hear my words?
I will always stay by your side.
Fuyao...
Fuyao!
Zhan Beiye. Zhan...
To live or to die...
I want your answer.
Who are you?
Presently, that's not important.
What's important is your vitality will soon disappear and your life will soon be gone.
By then, not only will you die, the person who came with you here will also die.
I can't die.
In this world, who isn't afraid of death?
Who can really go against it?
But, you're very lucky,
because only me can save you.
It's just that you must pay a price.
What do you want?
Loyalty.
Loyalty...
Loyalty!
Loyalty?
- Loyalty? - Loyalty.
I want to become your belief, everything that you believe in.
I want you to give me all of your loyalty
towards your friends,
towards everyone.
Impossible. I can't give my loyalty up!
No one can refuse me.
I can let you live and be happy.
Don't hesitate. Submit to me.
You all can live then.
While death is very painful.
You only have one choice.
No.
I can't. I...
I...would rather die
than give my loyalty up...
...and betray my heart.
Losing your life
for those people who didn't trust you,
for those people who betrayed you, is it worth it?
Think about the citizens of Yao City.
For them, you've long forgotten about life or death.
How then did they repay you?
Only ruthlessness and curses.
Are you really going to pity them?
You're right.
My kindness indeed was let down.
My loyalty also got tested.
But other than that, I still have so many sincere friends.
Behind me...there is still my greatest love.
I surely will protect all of them.
If you're going to let me give my loyalty up just to survive,
I'd rather get locked up in here forever.
I'd rather die!
I didn't expect you to be this courageous.
Although you refused to be my slave, I won't let you die.
Di Feitian is still waiting for you to wake him up.
One day, we will meet again.
Fifth Brother is awake!
Then Older Sis Fuyao...
Older Sis Fuyao is awake too!
Urgent news from South Clan.
Prince Assist has been searching for Crown Prince Wuji in Geya Desert for so many days.
Although he did his best, he was still late.
Yesterday, the corpse of Crown Prince was found.
Now that Crown Princre Wuji has died in the sea of sand, his corpse should have been immediately brought back to the imperial city,
But since he died of a strange illness in Geya Desert,
there are a lot at stake if we move him.
I fear that we won't be able to bring back his corpse.
How precious and noble is the Crown Prince of the Five Regions?
Now, he wasn't able to fully live his life span
and had died without fulfilling his dreams.
That is already a very painful matter.
Just leaving him there...letting Crown Prince get buried away from his hometown...
For a national martyr, I am also deeply saddened and pained.
But this strange petrifying disease is very fierce and can easily spread.
Even a man of outstanding intelligence and talent like Crown Prince Wuji
wasn't able to resist it.
Don't talk about ordinary people anymore.
If we take the risk and bring back his corpse,
and the strange illness wreaks havoc along the long journey,
I fear that it will incite fear among the citizens!
With Crown Prince dying, the world is in mourning.
I dare not hastily make any decision about your suggestions.
Whether it is to do the funeral and burial of Crown Prince at the place he died
or bring his corpse back here to his hometown,
may Father Emperor make the decision.
Tell Prince Assist that the dead takes priority. Immediately bury him so he can rest in peace.
In a few days, I'm going back to Heavenly Fiend Nation.
The Dark Storm Cavalry will also retreat back to the mountains.
I'm not at ease to leave you alone outside
once we pull out from this camp. What are your plans?
Why don't you...go back to Yao City first?
I know you're feeling upset.
For them, you almost lost your life,
but didn't expect that you'd get this result in return.
Hey, I heard that the citizens of Yao City are actively searching for you.
I'm sure that they've already understood the painstaking efforts you've done for them.
I'm fine now. I don't want to go anywhere else.
How long will you keep avoiding, Fuyao?
There are times
when you give someone else a chance, you're also giving yourself a chance.
You can solve the misunderstanding face to face.
They killed my heart till there's nothing left.
I understand.
But can you not give them one more chance?
Official Fu...
-Official Fu is back! Official Fu is back!
-Official Fu!
Official Fu is back! Official Fu is back!
Official Fu! Official!
Official Fu...
You can all get up!
-No, we can't get up!
Fuyao doesn't blame you.
As the guards and citizens of Yao City,
you didn't follow the leader of your city and surrendered,
but instead chose to protect your families and Yao City.
As citizens of Yao City, you have done what you can.
Yao City is lucky to have people like you.
Fuyao is blessed to have you.
Official Fu, we are sorry.
We swear to follow you forever.
-We swear to follow you forever.
Sometimes, giving oneself a chance
is also giving others a chance. From now on, this Yao City will truly be yours.
♫ Even if I don't know how to pull out the sword of time, ♫
-You're back! Tie Cheng, how is your wound?
No problem. I'm just fine.
This... official seal is still here.
Just keep this official seal well.
This...
I also just picked up this official position out of a moment of whim.
I can't stay here forever anyway.
Now that the Black Tribe Gang has been eliminated, I'm handing the citizens of Yao City
to you to guard well.
Then...are you leaving now?
I'm going to find Wuji. You take care of yourself.
Megrez Empire governs the Five Regions. It is the foundation that gives stability to the world.
Now that Crown Prince Wuji is dead,
the position of the imperial successor is left empty. If this continues, the heart of the citizens will be in disarray,
It will cause chaos.
I concur. We cannot leave the crown prince position vacant.
There must be a heir to the imperial power. I suggest that we set a new crown prince as soon as possible.
I concur.
A report from Prince Assist from the far away South Clan, greeting His Majesty good health.
Prince Assist performs his filial and fraternal duties, a very loyal subject, is intelligent and capable.
He is also the eldest royal son.
Whether in reason or in sentiments, he is the unrivaled choice for the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince has just passed away.
It's too soon to discuss a successor.
His Majesty said that there isn't a private matter when it comes to the imperial family.
The matter of Prince Assist is the matter of the Five Regions.
It should be reflected on and shared with everyone.
He especially instructed me to read this for everyone to hear.
Since I heard about Wuji's demise yesterday,
I was in extreme grief.
My tears were overflowing, but I don't have the power to reverse what has been done.
I only wish that I can be allowed to temporarily stay here in Geya, a bitterly cold place,
to handle the burial of my brother
and express the mourning of an older brother.
I will try my best to maintain the dignity the Crown Prince.
Wuji died harboring a grudge and is a great loss for the Five Regions.
We should all be grieving and lamenting.
Secretary Wei Qiyang instead kept advising me
to use this chance to obtain the crown prince position.
This person was deliberately instigating conflict and his actions were of evil intentions.
I got so enraged
and immediately punished him on site.
But Secretary Wei holds office in the imperial court
and respectfully earns imperial graces. I was reckless
and acted out of a moment of impulsiveness.
I ask for Royal Father to strictly punish me for the crime of taking matters in my own hands.
The matter of choosing the crown prince will temporarily be put aside. From now on,
it will be decided by Father Emperor.
Your Highness Empress, wake up... What's wrong with you?
Your Highness Empress, wake up...
Wake up...
What's wrong with you?
Call the royal physician in.
What happened?
Empress heard that His Highness Crown Prince has died.
Out of great yearning for her son, she wanted to beg His Majesty
to allow her to see His Highness Crown Prince for the last time.
Who would have known that on our way to the meditation room, she would suddenly faint.
Royal Sister-in-law...
Do you feel better?
Wuji... I want to see Wuji.
Hurry and assist Empress up.
Your Highness...
Take me to see Wuji, okay? I beg you.
The journey to South Clan is far and your body is weak.
If anything bad happens to you, Wuji will also not rest in peace.
My son is gone...
I am unable to send him off in his last journey.
I'm unwilling to accept it...
Empress, Prince.
Empress, the medicine that His Majesty has prepared for you is done. I'll deliver it to your chambers now.
Don't deliver it anymore! I'm not eating it!
His Majesty instructed that I assist you in taking it.
Throw it! Throw it all away!
I dare not!
Prince, please advice Empress.
This medicine was painstakingly prepared by His Majesty. It can't be thrown away.
What does it say?
[The Crown Prince died in the Geya Desert, and has been placed in the coffin for burial.]
The Crown Prince died in the Geya Desert, and has been placed in the coffin for burial.
What? Crown Prince Wuji is dead?
Do you believe Wuji is dead?
The Crown Prince is born under an auspicious sign, and he is blessed by Your Majesty.
He should be...
should be able to overcome any turmoil.
I don't want to believe it, either.
But, what if he really is dead?
Who should succeed his position?
This...I dare not make casual suggestions.
In the imperial court, only 2 people
are qualified for it, Prince Assist and Prince Virtue.
Prince Assist's wild ambitions are so obvious, but Prince Virtue?
He acts as if he doesn't have the heart to manage the court.
But what kind of intentions are hiding behind that facade,
who knows?
Actually...
I may as well let them fight it out.
It'll help me see
which ministers are serving whom?
Although Prince Assist has some power,
compared to Prince Virtue, he's still a bit soft.
If Prince Virtue really develops disloyalty, then how could
Prince Assist handle him?
When have I said that I will use Prince Assist to deal with Prince Virtue?
If I want Prince Virtue to die,
the person who must do it can only be Wuji.
Oh, right. Prince Assist is about to bury Wuji.
Immediately go to South Clan.
Clearly look at who really is that dead person.
Hurry!
Is Crown Prince's death true or not?
The messenger pigeon was left by Wuji.
The note was also written by his Secret Guard.
I actually hope that you can tell me that all of these are just a joke.
- That he is just fooling us. - I'm just worried that Fuyao...
Wuji's death is too fishy.
Before we know the full truth,
don't make any reckless move.
Especially Fuyao. We all clearly know about her feelings for Wuji.
Hence, she would be easily be entrapped. We need to keep watch of her.
I already asked Xiaoqi to secretly light the sedating incense you gave me.
This time, it should have...
Older Sis Fuyao has ran away! What do we do?!
I'll go chase her!
Take good care of Yao City.
- I'm going too! I... - Stop!
You all will just add trouble.
Fifth Brother, be careful.
You and Fuyao must return safely.
I'll just ask once: Who are you?
Who is your contact? Why are you here?
We are the supply troop of the Pingrong Army.
We are here to deliver supplies to Prince Assist.
Just 3 li east from here is the main camp of Prince Assist.
Go back with me.
I know you feel the injustice.
You can go revenge for Wuji, but not now.
I want to see him alive. If he is dead, I still must see the body.
I can't believe he is dead just because you told me.
I'll go find him.
[The coffin of Crown Prince Wuji of Megrez Empire]
When people in the imperial city heard that Crown Prince Wuji had encountered a mishap,
each one was refusing to believe it.
With Crown Prince's outstanding intelligence and talent, how could he...
Father Emperor's heart aches for crown prince dying in a foreign place.
For a white-haired person to send off a black-haired son,
he must be in severe grief.
He especially sent me here to send Crown Prince off to his last journey.
Ever since I heard of Wuji's death,
I haven't even been able to eat a single rice or drink a single drop of water.
He is after all my brother. We are related by blood.
Your Highness, please contain your grief.
I never expected that Crown Prince will die in Geya Desert.
I wonder too,
everyone knows that desert is forbidden,
why did the Crown Prince go there?
Isn't that strange!
Ten days ago, I received a report
that they found Crown Prince's belongings along the border of the desert.
When I looked at it,
there was indeed an imperial seal on it.
I then deduced that Wuji has entered the Geya Desert.
Several days after that, I sent a total of 5 troops to search for him,
but there were no news of him.
Then, how did you find his body?
It was quite a coincidence.
It snowed on the day of our search.
The searchers looked around in the desert
and found his body.
It's such a pity.
At such a young age,
he got killed by the petrifying disease from this desert.
After Crown Prince died, the thoughts of people in the imperial court also got flexible.
Lord Duan and the others suggested that you inherit the crown prince title,
so as to placate the hearts of the citizens.
I know that I am deficient in intelligence and academic study.
And I have never had the ambition.
I have only wished for my father to stay healthy,
so that I can stay beside him to serve him well.
Your Highness, everything is prepared.
Really? You want to burn everything up?
Crown Prince Wuji's rare disease could be contagious.
Your Highness, we can't delay any longer.
So be it. Let's hurry to send Crown Prince to Heaven.
[The coffin of Crown Prince Wuji of Megrez Empire]
Your Highness, before I left, His Majesty specifically told me
to bid the Crown Prince farewell for the last time.
But, the coffin is closed and so far away,
I can't even glimpse his face.
I can't even fulfill His Majesty's command.
It's not that I am intentionally stopping you.
It's just that this weird petrifying disease is very dangerous.
It's easy for you to get afflicted if you go near to it.
Once you have the disease,
your body will slowly harden, turning into stone, and then you'll die.
Hence, I have no choice but to burn him here.
I can't disobey the orders of Father Emperor.
Hope Your Highness can understand it.
Okay.
Then we'll burn the coffin while it's open. If Eunuch Han wants to pay your respect,
then just do it after the fire has been lit.
That will be best then.
Open the coffin.
Open the coffin!
Fuyao...
It is indeed Crown Prince Wuji.
My pitiful younger brother.
Respectfully sending off Crown Prince Wuji!
Kneel.
Wuji...
- Don't be like this. - Wuji...
- Calm down, Fuyao. - Wuji—
- Bad spirits! They got inflicted with the petrifying disease! - Quickly leave!
[The coffin of Crown Prince Wuji of Megrez Empire]
Wuji...
- Fuyao. - Wuji...
- Calm down a little, Fuyao. - Wuji...
I'm going to seek vengeance for Wuji.
- Calm down a little first. Fuyao! - I'm going to kill Zhangsun Pingrong!
I'm going to kill Zhangsun Pirngrong!
- Didn't you see how many they were? - I'm going to kill him!
How many guards does Zhangsun Pingrong have?
If you charge there now, are you trying to seek revenge or seek death?!
He is Wuji! He can't die!
- It's impossible for him to die! - Fuyao...
He saved me so many times, how could he die?! Wuji!
Calm down a little, Fuyao.
Wuji!
No way... He can't just die this way.
He can't just die like this.
Enough...
When I was little, the people who doted me the most are my mother and grandfather.
When grandfather left, my mother hugged me and stayed with me the whole night.
I never saw her cried until the morning.
I asked her, "Aren't you sad?" She said,
"If a person dies and will really leave something behind,
then that probably is just a bit of longing,
a bit of memories, and a lot of pain.
But they don't like to see all that.
The more they don't want people to be in pain.
Living isn't easy. The person has already left.
Why then must we use the tears of the living to bind them?"
As long as you're alive, you won't let him die in vain. Am I right?
Correct.
I mustn't fall.
I must take revenge for Wuji.
Okay. If you want to seek vengeance, I will accompany you.
Dragonfly and solanum, each 2 qian.
Houseleek, 6 qian.
All these are the ingredients for the medicine that His Majesty makes for Empress.
Everyone, better be careful.
Wuma, 3 qian.
Sugarcane and common turmeric root, each 6 qian.
One of my wife is sick.
My in-law has asked a great doctor to treat her.
Since Imperial Physician Deng happens to be here today,
hope you can take the trouble and see what improvement can still be made on this prescription.
Prince, how long has Madam been taking this medicine?
Several days. Why? Is something wrong?
Hope Prince can tell Madam to stop taking this medicine.
Or else, her life might get in danger.
May Imperial Physician Deng explain it.
Prince, look. This medicinal formula might look complicated and meticulously studied.
But in reality, it's slowly harming you. Other than the strong medicines like spargonium and zedoary,
it is secretly hiding 19 contradicting and 18 frightening forbidden medical combination.
Giving the opposite is harmful, even to the point of mutual inhibition.
Taking it for a short period, you will only develop uterine bleeding
and excessive internal heat causing cold. But if you take it for a long time,
you surely will have excessive asthenia, will excessively eat and drink, have clonic convulsions, and then die.
Also, it can't be helped for your appearance to get disfigured and be in severe pain.
This is a killing method that that aims to make the heart die prematurely, having control of the person's fate.
Either the person who did this was of mediocre skills and was just being presumptuous,
or he is deliberately causing harm and has evil intentions.
Wuji is gone.
This deep palace has become more bitter cold.
Why must you still enter this troubled place?
Why didn't you tell me?
These past years, the medicines he asked you to take openly and secretly
have poisons. Why didn't you tell me?
You know already?
How long are you still planning to hide this from me?
Telling you...
...what can that do? In the past,
Zhangsun Jiong forcefully married me into the palace.
You were unable to stop it. Now...
...he wants to torture me. What can you do?
You clearly know...that I...
I...
I don't want to drag you into this.
What this medicine is poisoning is me,
but the person he wants to harm is you.
He so wanted for you to know the truth.
So wanted to anger you, so that he can grab hold of your weakness.
Eliminate you in a justifiable manner.
I endured it for so many years. I was just looking forward for Wuji
to ascend to the throne as soon as possible.
But...
Crown Prince has died at such a young age.
It is something that we didn't foresee.
The dead is gone. The living should become stronger.
The road ahead is full of danger. You mustn't collapse after a setback.
The situation now has changed.
Before, Zhangsun Jiong still considered that you are Ji'er's biological mother,
so he didn't dare to make rash moves. We still had room to maneuver.
But now that Ji'er is gone,
I'm sure that he couldn't wait to eliminate us.
Since he is bent on forcing me to rebel,
fine. Let me tell you today then, Yi'er,
I will take back this empire for you.
Once I've arranged everything,
within 3 days, I will come back to fetch you.
You...
Wait for me.
How come there is no one here at all?
We've been waiting for a long time.
Without a sound, you were able to get past all the guards.
You two have good martial arts skills.
Gold of Heaven Fiend.
So you have connived with Zhan Nancheng already.
Where is Zhangsun Pingrong?!
You really think that Prince Assist
will just sit here and wait for you two to kill him?
You already knew that we're coming?
Yesterday, you two mixed within the soldiers and sent off Crown Prince in his last journey.
You really think that Prince Assist didn't notice it?
He just considered that Miss and Crown Prince
have a special relationship, so he didn't order your arrest and be buried with him.
His Highness has good foresight and he knew that you two will come to try to assassinate him.
He then set up a trap like this. Sorry to disappoint you.
Where the hell is Zhangsun Pingrong?!
It's fine to just tell you about it. The 15th of next month is the birthday of the king of Heavenly Fiend Nation.
Prince Assist is now the person governing the state affairs of Megrez. How could he not go?
He is in Rock City?
Guys, I don't think it will be easy to escape now.
But too bad...
A distinguished prince of Heavenly Fiend Nation gave up on glory and splendor
and instead chose to be with a wanted female criminal of the Five Regions.
But His Highness said
to let Heavenly Fiend Nation arrest their prince.
We'll just keep watch here and mustn't harm Prince Fierce.
