Episode 21
l have no other intention
lt is just a token of my regard
You can play with it when you are free
l am grateful for your good will
but the gift is too precious
Thank you for your good will
l can't take your gift
lt is said that to refuse heaven's gifts you will be blamed
lt is right
But can you tell me something?
Who is heaven? What to blame?
You have everything under your control
No one can give and accept a country in private
l am grateful for your kindness
But l'm afraid l can't accept
The vault of Ministry of Revenue was robbed. The city is alarmed
You concern yourself with state affairs
You must have heard of it
l have
lf they can't solve the case,
Minister Fu and Marshal Zhou will be dismissed
They are important courtiers
lf they are dismissed, the capital will be in chaos
Go on
But One-eyed Dragon captain Shan
found out the hide-out of the thieves
l think you will handle it properly. Share the worries of the king
l said all l have to say
Goodbye
Come in
Miss Jiao
This is yuqian tea, it tastes luscious
Ocean said Miss Greeny always brewed it for you
Miss Jiao, you...
Miss Greeny always dressed in men's clothes
l think it's fun. l tried them on
Don't you like it?
l like it but you are Gold Dragon's boss
lt is not appropriate
l don't want to be the boss
l...want to be your page boy
l...
Miss Jiao
l'm hungry. Can you cook me some noodles?
Sure
Dean He
l'm not welcome, am l?
lt's late. Why did you come?
l am worried that without Miss Greeny
you will be lonely
What are you doing?
You must know why l came
You have a grudge against Miss Xia's father
You should settle with him
Why do you persecute his son?
Better make friends than make enemies
Don't you agree?
We will take about it later
Do you treat your guest like this?
Yuan, your noodles
You...
No weak troops under a strong general
Your page boy is handsome
Yuan, it...
Excuse us, Miss Jiao
lt's a surprise a page boy knows kung fu
l'm impressed by your kung fu
but l don't think your teacher Golden Snake
knows how to hit vital points in that way
You must have another teacher
l am a Hua Shan's pupil
You have the essence of different sect's kung fu
No wonder your kung fu is miraculous
l came here to ask you to be my teacher
l don't understand
lf you don't mind that l am slow and stupid,
please teach me some moves
You are the Dean of a sect
You are a kung fu expert
Why do you joke about something like this?
lf you don't teach me how to free their vital points,
do you want me to watch tens of my men die?
lf you take my friend back
and promise not to harass us,
l will free their vital points
You mean you won't be my teacher
l would like to have more teachers
How can l take pupils?
Let bygones be bygones
What do you say?
You mean
you will free my fellows if l take your friend back?
Okay. We will see what happens in future
5 Poisons dominate Yunnan
Heroes of 7 provinces are honorable men
l will take you on
You are angry, aren't you?
Why do you get angry?
l apologize to you now
l will take your friend back tomorrow
Please come to my place to free our fellows
That's a deal
l will go now. Will you see me out?
After you
Senior Luo...
What is it, junior?
Tell everybody He Tieshou is here
The Dean of 5 Poisons?
Yes
She is beautiful but evil
Yuan is a gentleman
l'm afraid he will be tricked by her
Yuan is a kung fu master
She is no match for him in kung fu
She is secretive and sneaky
lf her fellows are waiting in ambush outside,
what should Yuan do then?
He gave Gold Dragon a new lease of life
We can't stand by and watch
Okay. l will tell our fellows
Thank you for seeing me off
l really want to be your pupil
Please think about it
You must be joking. Goodbye
We will see
Set off
Come out, wretch He. l will kill you
5 Poisons were domineering
lt's a surprise you are in this situation today
A small Xiandou can be so arrogant?
l'm impressed. You are fearless
What do you want? Say it now
Where is my teacher, Taoist Huang Mu?
Tell us now or you will suffer
What a joke! He is not a kid
Why do you ask me about his whereabouts?
But we are fellows in kung fu world
l will help you find him. He is pitiful
l wonder if he was abducted or sold to foreign countries
Your sect used to be ruthless and overbearing
Now evil is recompensed with evil
Xiandou in kung fu world is quite famous
But you didn't come to me openly
Now you know my fellows were injured
You hide here sneakily
7 stars array
Transform the array
Watch out. Poison
Poison
Senior Min
Transform the array. Attack
Where is my teacher?
Tell me if he is alive or dead
What's so funny?
l will kill you if you don't stop laughing
Watch out
Kill her
Save our Dean
The enemies are too strong. Retreat
Run...
Taoists, come again when you are free
See yourselves off
You are hurt, Dean
They are revolting
They ambushed you because most of our fellows were hurt
Are you alright?
Luckily, you came in time, aunt
Or else it would not be easy to fight them off
Let them go
Are you alright, Dean He?
Did Xiandou collude with Yuan?
Gold Dragon is in league with Yuan
l thought he would help them fight Xiandou
Good. Let them kill each other
Big is right
Let's go back
Let's go
What? Prince Hui's residence?
Yes, l'm sure it is Prince Hui's residence
Xiandou's pupils fought He Tieshou
for more than an hour
Not one guard came out to check
Captain Shan told me before he died
The strange house where 5 Poisons stayed was Prince Hui's property too
lt's a surprise they are staying in his house
Green may be hidden there
Don't worry, Miss Jiao
l will go there tonight
They mentioned l would fight Xiandou
lt must be related to your dad's murder
The residence is closely guarded
lt may not be a good idea to go there rashly
Leader can come and leave the palace freely
let alone a prince's residence
Don't worry
Do you want some fellows to go with you?
No need
l go there to find Green
lf l know she is there, we will attack them together
l have news from King Rush
He captured Pingyang
He will attack Taiyuan next
Great...
King Rush can get the Forbidden City easily then
let alone Prince Hui's residence
Yes...
l depend on you to work for King Rush
Don't worry, Leader
Let's tell our fellows the good news
Okay...Let's go. Let's go
Goodbye... Goodbye
l will go with them
And you, Miss Jiao
Don't do anything rash again
l thought He Tieshou wouldn't quit
We would have a lot of trouble
lf l found her hide-out
when she came to harass us,
you could attack her unawares
Finding their hide-out is not important
But we worried about you
Thank you for your concern
How is Dean He?
She is not badly hurt
She will treat herself. lt doesn't matter
The 5 old Wens are famous in the south
l have heard of your great names
You live up to your reputation
On behalf of Dean He l thank you
We are flattered
We are honored that we can serve you
Who were the trouble makers?
They were from Xiandou
People in kung fu world are unrestrained
Heroes use force, scholars use words to violate the laws
lf the country is in peace,
they can't make trouble
Now the country is in chaos. lf we want peace,
Your Highness must save the desperate situation before it's too late
We will serve you at all costs
Who is it?
You are fearless
Yuan Chengzhi
Yuan, enemies are destined to meet
lt's a surprise to see you in the capital
You are fearless
How dare you come to prince's residence to make trouble
You can't get away even if you are superhuman
Masters, take my advice
Prepare 1 60,000 liters of rice before you fight me
You...
Don't waste your breath on him, Big. Get him
Wait
Are you Yuan Chengzhi, the Leader of kung fu world of 7 provinces?
Your Highness, he is
l want to talk to you
You and l are not on the same side. We have nothing to talk about
Not necessarily
Maybe we can talk about your father
What do you think?
Let him come to me
Your Highness, be careful. He may hurt you
Let us stay with you to be on the safe side
No need
He is the Leader. He won't do anything sneaky
Am l right, Mr Yuan?
l'm an honorable man
l won't do anything despicable
Good words
Your Highness, you are a member of the royal family
l am a rebel who killed officers
Why did you do this?
lt really is you...
Yuan Chonghuan had an heir...
You and my father...
We were fellows courtiers not friends
Your father was wronged
Though l knew it was injustice, l couldn't help him
Your Highness
The king wants to build a strong country
but he always blames courtiers, he is unrealistic
He is headstrong and paranoid
Your father was a loyal officer
Too bad his reputation was ruined
There is a line in Wen Zhengming's Manjianghong
Depended upon Fei at the beginning. Treated him cruelly in the end
lt is about Song's King and Yue Fei
How Yue Fei was killed wrongly
Who knows hundreds of years later
The same tragedy happened to your father
He knew the king would be suspicious of him
He still took on difficult and dangerous tasks
He risked his life for our country
Though more than 1 0 years have passed
l sigh whenever l think of him
Thank you for understanding his loyalty
Stupid Chongzhen was to blame
He couldn't tell loyalists from traitors. He ruined our country's defences
He did
Our country will be ruined by him
lf no one saves the desperate situation in time,
our country will be captured by Li Zicheng or the enemy
Do you think
there is someone who can save the situation?
l am the one
You are ambitious, Your Highness
l am indifferent to power
l just want to be a prince in peace
But the situation is rotten
Ming will perish if l don't come forward
Why did you tell me, Your Highness?
l will give you a chance
A chance?
Chongzhen is headstrong. He ruined our country
l will take his place out of no choice
l want to join forces with you
Do you want to kill the king?
The palace is closely guarded. Many kung fu masters stay there
lts defences are much stronger than my residence
Though you are a kung fu master,
if you want to kill Chongzhen, it will almost be impossible
l have a way to get you in the palace
You can get your revenge
l can ascend the throne and rebuild our country
The first thing l will do when l am the king
is to rehabilitate commander Yuan
Build a temple for him
l want the world to know
he was a loyal officer of our country
l want all loyal courtiers know
they have a role model
What is your opinion?
lt is a pleasure to talk with you
Your Highness
You don't look like a muddle-headed man
Thank you for your compliment
You want revenge. l want to save my country
This is our big chance
Why not do it?
lt is serious. l want to think about your suggestion
Fine
Please think it over
l will be waiting for you. My door is always open for you
No need
l just want you to let my friend go
Your friend? Who?
Miss Xia Greeny
She was abducted by your guests, 5 Poisons
l don't know if she is still alive
Please order them to let her go
l didn't know about it
l promise you
l will look into it
lf Miss Xia is with 5 Poisons,
l promise l will give her back unscathed
Thank you
The lad is coming out
What are you doing? Go away
Mr Yuan is my guest. Behave
Goodbye
Please go back, Your Highness
l won't see you off
Please come with me
Yuan
Miss Wany, you...
lt's cold at night. Put it on now
You have gone all night. Everyone is worried
We took turns at waiting for you here
You have stayed in the cold all night?
No...
l will tell them you are back
Dean, your medicine is ready. lt's time to change the dressing
Put it down. l will take it later
Yes
Who is it? Come out
You treat your guest like this?
lt's you. Why did you come?
Are you well, Dean?
Ever since we fought Xiandou's Taoists
l have worried about your injury
l came here to...
Master Wen
You want me to thank you?
No...
A true man doesn't bestow favors on others for repayment
You came here for...
The thing is...
l thought you were a fairy when l saw you that day
l came here today because l want to be your friend
l want to be close to you
Master Wen, you are young at heart
Who can blame you?
You look much younger than other Wens
l am the youngest
Okay, we are friends
Though we are unconventional in kung fu world,
peeking is not a decent thing to do
We will talk some other time
l have to change my dressing. Excuse me
l came because l am concerned for your injury
Do you want me to apply your dressing?
Thank you for your concern
But man and woman should not touch each other
When l am better,
l will visit you and thank you in person
What do you say?
Okay
Rest and get better. Goodbye
l think Prince Hui won't rehabilitate commander Yuan
He wanted Leader to assassinate the king. Then he can usurp the throne
He may harm you afterwards
What should we do if he wants to kill you to keep his secrets?
Even if he is better than Chongzhou
but King Rush is powerful, Qing's troops are causing trouble
How can Prince Hui stabilize the country?
Boss Cheng is right
Prince Hui wanted to use Leader
But we can grab the chance and get in the palace
Right. He wanted to use me
Why can l use him?
The palace is closely guarded
lt's difficult to get in there by ourselves
And Green was taken by 5 Poisons. We have no leads
Prince Hui is the only clue
Leader has affection and faith
We can join forces with him temporarily
Kill Chongzhen when the chance comes
Whether he can be the king or not
We don't have to worry about it right now
King Rush's troops win one victory after another
They will attack the capital in time
Ming will be overthrown soon
To cooperate with him is just an expedient measure
Right
There are 3 advantages
3 advantages
First, kill Chongzhen, avenge commander
Second, find Miss Greeny's whereabouts
And the third...
we can cause chaos in the palace
We will perform the first deed of merit for King Rush
ls that what you are thinking?
Right
l'm not eating that poison
You are welcome to go on a hunger strike and starve to death
Old witch, l won't let your wish come true
l have changed my mind. l want to eat
Do you want it? lt smells nice
You want to eat but l won't let you eat
What do you mean?
Ask me to eat then ask me not to eat
You just kill me now
l love torturing people
Especially my enemies
l will carve your face. Make it look like mine
You locked me here. You don't give me food
Why can't l insult you?
You can insult me
lt doesn't matter if a dead person is insulting me
but l'm annoyed because you are too noisy
Am l beautiful?
You are scared
Where is your dad?
Tell me
Where is your ma, the despicable wretch?
You are an old wretch
What did you say?
Old wretch...
How dare you insult me! l will tear your lips
Aunt, what are you doing?
She has an evil tongue. l must tear her lips
Aunt
l promised l wouldn't kill her
but l didn't promise l wouldn't make her suffer
l can't convince myself not to torture her
The sect's affairs are more important than yours
You are not in charge of Miss Xia in future
l will handle it
Old wretch
Ugly freak
Don't mess with my aunt
or else you will suffer
Take my advice and let me go now
You will suffer much more if my brother comes
You are still thinking of your Yuan
Though he is a kung fu master,
he can never defeat us
You can stop worrying about him
What a joke
You are a boaster
You can change your name from He Tieshou to He Boaster
Stop
Mr Yuan, you came
You have taken a load off my mind
Please come in
You must have good news for me
l have
l thought about it carefully. l will join forces with you
Great. l am helped from heaven
ln future you are my guest
l invited some kung fu masters here
No matter what problem you had with them in the past
Now we are a family
l want you to cooperate with them
Please come this way
Sorry to keep you waiting
Please come in
