Epi. 48
Let me go.
Empress.
Sister Mantuo?
Empress. Help me.
Empress. Why are you in a daze?
Quickly show the magic to empress.
Your majesty.
What are you doing?
Your majesty.
I beg you.
Please don’t hurt her. Empress.
She is pregnant lady.
It could be a misunderstanding.
Please listen to us.
Empress.
Empress. You just know Madame Tang.
Why do you worry about her?
I got it now.
Aren't you being incited by her
and came to Qianan palace to catch me in bed?
What a strong relationship.
No wonder you're her buddy.
Yes. I went to Qianan palace. So what?
Could it be that we couldn't know what you did here?
If you're not afraid to justify yourself,
why do you ask your guard to guard here
and disallow others to come in?
You're guilty.
That's why you want to kill her to cover this up.
Yuwen Yong.
Don't think that you're an emperor.
I'm also an empress.
If you don’t release her today,
I will go back to tell my dad immediately.
He Quan.
Tell empress.
Apart from me, who else were in the Qianan Palace?
Yes.
His majesty summoned Mr Yang, Mrs Yang and Miss Yang to palace today.
Don’t try to lie to me.
I heard the little girl called you as dad just now.
I saw Lihua grew up since she was a little girl.
In my eye, she is also my future daugther-in-law.
Can't she call me dad?
Then you tell me.
what is your relationship with Jialuo?
Yang Jian and Mrs Yang are my close friends.
Don’t lie to me.
I saw you looked at her in affection.
I've never seen you so happy since I married you.
Empress.
Before you came to palace, your dad has taught you that
not to simply judge emperor's heart.
But I'm your wife. Your empress.
But I'm emperor of the world.
Empress.
You were raised up in a grassland
and just came to palace.
You don’t know about the cunning of human.
Madame Tang's surname is Dugu,
but she is wicked and kinky.
She tried to seduce me many times before she married.
After being rejected,
she was pissed off and couldn’t stop to revenge.
It's fine if she doesn’t want to change,
but she even comes to incite empress in the palace.
At this moment,
I couldn't let you go anymore.
Your Majesty. Please spare me.
Your Majesty. I'm wrong.
Your Majesty.
I'm patient to you for many years.
Do you think that you can keep overdoing
because you are having same blood linkage with Jialuo?
No. No.
But I'm not Yang Jian.
I won't have compassion for you.
Your Majesty.
I'm sorry. I'm wrong.
Please spare me.
Your most stupid point is
you think you're smart and treat others as fool.
Stop.
Don't do this in my palace.
Empress is afraid?
Well.
Empress.
You must remember that
do not trace my whereabout in future.
Don't listen to other rumous.
Don't simply say that you want go back to grassland to beg your father.
You're right.
Great Zhou needs your country's favour.
But doesn’t Turkey need Great Zhou's favour too?
Furthermore, Turkey is far from Great Zhou.
What if you suddenly fall sick while you're on the way back?
You're fear now?
Then just stay in your palace wisely.
You must remember,
I'm the only person you can trust in the palace.
Na.
I'm here.
Advise your princess that
as long as she is honest,
I will respect her and give her honor as a title of empress.
Otherwise,
I don’t mind to teach her servants and maids a lesson who don't serve her well.
You got it?
Yes.
Quickly go to serve empress.
Empress. Help me.
Empress.
Help me.
Your Majesty. Empress.
Your Majesty.
I know I'm wrong.
Please spare me.
Cover up the news that Madame Tang has come to palace.
Send back her dead body.
Tell Duke of Tang that she is the murder of Li Cheng's case.
Ask him to submit memo to inform that his wife died in disease.
Your Majesty. Please spare me.
I will ensure no news will be spread to Yang's mansion.
Take action now.
Your Majesty.
Yuwen Yong.
Anyhow, I'm still one of Dugu's family.
Alright.
You killed my father.
And now you want to kill me.
Well. Just do it.
I'm telling you.
If Jialuo knows about this one day,
will she forgive you?
Give her an instant punishment.
You…
I'm pregnant.
He is the only child of Duke of Tang.
If you kill me,
I will make Jialuo the same fate as me.
She will die in pregnancy when I become a ghost.
You thought I dare not kill you?
Your Majesty.
You're right for a point.
For the sake of Jialuo,
I won't kill you immediately.
I allow you to go back to Anzhou to deliver your baby.
Without my permission,
you must not come back to capital.
If I hear any rumous outside,
whether it's created by you or not,
I will let you suffer misery.
You got me?
Yes.
Specially grant governor of Tongzhou,
his son Yang Jian to inherite the title of Duke of Country.
Here is the decree.
Thank you. Your majesty.
May Your Majesty live forever.
My deepest condolences.
Your Majesty.
I have something to report. Imperial tutor arrives.
Li Hua, let's go back first.
General was healthy when I last met him.
Why did he leave in sudden?
Greeting. Your Majesty. All rise.
A man leaves is like turning off the light.
No matter how great is one's life,
he has to let go his resentment and hatred in the end.
General Yang.
Please rest in peace.
Thank you. Imperial tutor.
Is this your third child?
He looks smart.
He will have a great future.
Before General Yang's leaving,
he managed to see his grandson to be delivered.
I think he would have no worry.
Speaking of which.
Where is your little girl Lihua?
My girl feels sad and taking rest in her room.
I'm afraid she can't greet imperial tutor.
General Yang was holding an important position
to take care of six states.
You have to take the responsibility in future.
Thank for your compliment.
It's just that my dad would like us to mourning him for 3 years.
So, I'm afraid imperial tutor has to get someone to take over this task.
Why do you reject my offer?
Great Zhou is going to have battle with Qi soon.
Other people can resign and go back hometown.
But you're holding an important military position.
You can't resign and back to hometown.
Your majesty.
Do you agree?
Imperial tutor is right.
Imperial tutor.
Yang Jian is just 30 years old.
I'm not capable to handle this important task.
Your Majesty.
Before imperial tutor arrived,
I was thinking to request Your Majesty to allow me
to go back to hometown for mourning.
My father was leaving hometown for battle about few decades.
Before he left,
he missed his hometown very much.
So,
I hope Your Majesty and imperial tutor can make my dad's dream come true.
So that I can do my duty as filial son.
The offcial stamps of seven states and token of military are here.
Please accept them.
Why do you want to do this?
You want to do your filial duty as a son.
I will give you permission.
Over here.
Send my decree.
Duke of Sui is filial.
Allow him to send his dad's conffin to home town.
To reward his filial,
specially knifted his elder son as duke of Houping.
second son Yang Guang as duke of Yanmen.
Thank you. Your majesty.
Rise up quickly.
Master.
Yang Jian really passed the official stamps of the six states
and the token of military to Yuwen Yong?
I don’t bother about the official stamps.
But the armies that guard in six states are Dugu Xin and Zhao Gui's followers.
If the military token is passed to the emperor,
we're in unfavourable situation.
Did His Majesty accept all these without any rejection?
It's such a big attraction.
Even he is a dog, instead of wolf,
he will go to grab it too.
Yang Jian make such a show in front of public
by using Yang Zhong's will as excuse.
If I grab the offer,
I'm afraid those officers will feel uncomfortable.
Few months ago, I heard that
His Majesty summoned Mr Yang, Mrs Yang and Miss Yang to palace.
Empress was unhappy about this.
The little girl and Duke of Lu?
No wonder he didn’t allow his daugther to see me.
Could it because she wants to be the successor's wife?
Since His Majesty is disobey now,
why not…
Even he is disobey,
we have to wait till empress has a child.
Great Zhou was defeated in the last few battles in Qi.
Without meritorious of military services,
officers will not support me to inherite the throne.
Instead of cultivate others,
it's better to support a baby with pure blood.
Master is thoughtful and far sighted.
If I was far-sighted,
I should have listened to your opnion.
Due to Dugu Xin and Bore's incidents,
Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo will never untie the knot with me.
Although fortune teller mentioned that
he will just a prime minister in the future,
I think it's better to have a dead general instead of a disobeyed general.
Master.
Please forgive me for telling unpleasent faithful words.
The ten years promise is due soon.
As long as Dugu Jialuo's life is safe,
you're not considered as breaking the promise on that day.
Alright.
You go to make arrangement.
but I want to monitor the plan personally.
I can't trust you.
Yes.
Your Majesty. Please just keep these official stamps and token.
Yuwen Hu wants to promote me
because he wants to buy my support.
Even if I reject his offer,
he will find someone to take over this position.
You're right.
Your Majesty.
Please hold the power at ease.
Yang's family and Dugu's family always treat your majesty as our leader.
Now, you have seven states of authorities in your hand.
We will have more confidence when we want to implement anything.
Well.
When do you want to go back hometown?
After the 7th day of the funeral.
Okay.
I will send you off at that time.
We're sending your majesty off.
This way please.
Before dad left,
he didn’t mention about the transfer of authority, right?
Yes.
But dad told me before,
Yang's family is in a difficult situation
in the conflict of His Majesty and Yuwen Hu.
Jialuo.
I know you treat His Majesty as your relative.
But if Yuwen Hu and he will have a fight one day,
I hope Yang's family will be away from the storm.
Anyhow, we need to take Lihua,
Guang and Yong into consideration.
It's no harm to hold less power in my hand.
As long as we're safe,
it's good to be a farmer too.
I know it's improper as I didn't discuss with you about this matter.
I understand.
In the past,
I also hate that why dad left me alone in sudden.
Even we might have to fight with Yuwen Hu,
it's still better than commit suicide.
But finally,
I understand the reason after I become a mother.
We can compromise a lot of thing because of our children.
Thank for understanding.
I go to pack our belonging.
You wait for a while here.
Someone may come to worship later on.
Go quickly.
You're cheating.
Actually, you didn’t tell madame the truth.
A farmer?
I personally think that
you want to take advantages after the fighting of two parties.
It's no harm to keep the power of Yang's family for future use.
Young master.
What did the guy tell you in the cart on that day?
Why do you feel uneasy after that?
He just told me about some fortune.
But, I would like to try whether I have the luck.
Let's go.
I will leave the matter of capital to you.
Don’t worry. Young master.
Let's departure.
Young master. Take care.
Have you chosen a place? Master.
Yes.
They will arrive Xingfeng today
and stay into a hostel.
It's about 150 miles from capital.
Our men will depart two hours later.
They will take action in the midnight.
There are some robbers there lately.
At that time,
we can push the reponsibility to them.
It should be a perfect planning.
Don’t worry. Master.
During the mourning period,
Yang Jian will not share a same room with his wife.
She won't be hurt.
Okay. Get ready my horse.
Yes.
Jian.
Take rest earlier.
Jialuo.
Don’t go back today.
I know you're in the mourning period,
but I not use to sleep alone.
Dad has left.
Only you can accompany me in future.
Stop bullshit.
Don't you have Lihua and other children?
They only hang around you all the day.
If their surname isn't Yang,
I would have punished them much earlier.
Sit here to accompany me for a while.
Do you know that?
Lately, I always recall about my childhood.
At that time, I lived in a temple.
My dad used to bring me travel around.
Someone told me that,
the weather was unique when I was born.
Later on,
a fortune teller said that I would be the emperor in future.
Do you still believe this?
The prophecy about the legend of Dugu is well-known.
But what happened to our family finally?
If I am the emperor,
aren't our children become the legend of Dugu?
Stop dreaming.
The palace is belong to Yuwen's family.
But few decades ago,
the emperor's surname was Yuan.
And long time ago,
emperors' surname were Sima, Zao, Liu….
Why do you discuss about this suddenly?
Don't tell me that you want to be the second Yuwen Hu.
I just inherite the tile as duke of country.
Therefore I think too much.
Don’t be anxious.
I just chat with you casually.
Jian.
You can think about otherthing as you like.
But not for this.
The changes of emperor is caused by the greedy of a powerful person.
However, it is exchanged by many human's lifes.
Why did dad choose to commit suicide
and didn’t take action against Yuwen Hu?
His intention was not to let commoners suffer.
But aren't commoners suffering all these years?
Although Great Zhou has no fighting of emperor's throne.
But wars with Qi and Liang are never stopped.
Your sister Lu knows that Qi and Zhou will have a battle in future.
Therefore, she passed the military secret of Qi to me.
She hopes that I can end the war the sooner possible.
Jialuo.
Sometimes I also think that
if a real hero can conquer the world like Cao Cao,
and end the chaos that last these two hundred years,
isn't this a good thing?
Although Cao Cao conquered the world,
so what?
Cao Wei was still killed by Sima Yan within 50 years.
He died too early.
If I were him,
may be I could do better than him.
Jian.
don’t tell me that you want to be an emperor.
I'm just making delusion.
Don’t take it seriously.
Yuwen Yong is the emperor now.
Could it be that I upsurb his throne?
No wonder Yong loves to day-dreaming.
He is actually learning from you.
It's enough.
Stop dreaming anymore.
Why not we help Yong to make a younger brother or sister?
Yuwen Hu is coming to attack.
Master. What happened?
Yuwen Hu brought his men here.
We have to run away quickly.
Zheng Rong.
Quickly send Madame and others away. Yes.
Jian.
It's not time to hesitate.
Go quickly.
Let's go.
What happened?
Don’t ask. Follow me.
Lihua. Mom.
Where is dad? Let's go quickly.
Where is dad? We go first.
Go. Go.
Mom.
I want dad.
Lihua.
Madame. You can't go. Don’t bother about me.
Bring them out first.
Luhua.
Go quickly.
Let them go.
I just want Yang Jian's life.
Yes.
Yuwen Hu.
Come out if you want to kill me.
Stop hiding somewhere like a turtle.
You're full of heroic.
No wonder people said that
you'll become a prime minister in future.
What a waste.
Fate is a matter,
but motivation is another one.
Since you don’t want to follow me,
death is your only destiny.
Rest in peace.
Don’t worry about Jialuo.
For the sake of Bore,
I will treat her well.
Don’t kill my dad.
Don’t kill my dad. Lihua.
Don’t kill my dad.
Stop.
Yuwen Hu.
Jian. Jian.
Lihua. Come over.
Yuwen Hu.
Just take action to kill us.
Anyway, I just sent out message by pigeons to spread out the news.
Don’t forget that I still have seven brothers.
Yang Jian still has four younger brothers.
Yang's family and Dugu's family have few hundred thousand of followers.
If both of us die here,
they will rebel within three days without doubt.
Who is she?
Don't tell me that you can't figure out by yourself.
Go away. Don’t touch me.
No wonder you don't allow her to marry
and disallow her to see outsiders.
Why don’t you tell me?
Why?
Because sister hates you so much before she die.
Because you're the murder of her dad,
her husband,
and her.
Now you still want to kill her sister and her daugther.
Master.
Let them go.
Master.
We can't let them go now.
Jialuo. Let's go.
Let's go.
Jian.
Stay strong.
We willl arrive Huayin soon.
We will get you a doctor soon.
It's alright.
Don't worry.
I have many fighting experiences.
The previous injuries were worse than this time.
Stop talking.
Keep your energy.
Jialuo.
Do you believe that if I can overcome this time,
I will turn ill luck into good in future?
Perhap I can be an emperor too.
You bullshit again.
At that time,
you will be an empress.
We can….
Jian. Jian.
Can't you figure out who is she?
Stop.
Master.
What happened?
Turn back.
I have something important to do.
Sister.
Will dad pass away?
Don't bullshit.
Dad will not die.
You both…
Why are you here?
Go back now.
Master.
Doctor.
Doctor. Please rescue him.
This symtom is delirium due to injury and fever.
But I'm unable to do injection if he is like this.
Master. Don’t move.
What about we knockdown him?
No.
Master. Patient is seriously injured.
His consciousness is important.
If he injuries again,
I'm afraid…
Master. Don’t move.
Doctor wants to give you medical treatment.
Hurry up. Rescue Jialuo.
Lihua.
Go away.
Do you know what he likes usually?
Give it to him.
So that he will keep calm to receive treatment.
Come.
Jian.
Stay strong.
Lihua. Guang. Yong.
We're still waiting you to protect us.
Jian.
Zheng Rong. Take good care of him.
Yes.
Madame.
Where is the temple of Bhai?ajyaguru here?
Tell me quickly.
It's at the outskirt.
Turn to the West about 1 mile after the gate of the city.
Bring me quickly.
What are you doing?
You don’t wear your shoe in such a cold weather. Are you crazy?
This is custom of our military.
If a seriously injuried or illed person's wife and daugther
are willing to go to temple of Bhai?ajyaguru with barefoot,
this person will turn illed luck to good.
Madame.
Why do you torture yourself?
I heard that she is the officer's wife.
Are they the group of people who met robbers this morning?
Yes.
She is such a good wife to do all these for her husband.
That's right.
After many rounds of trying,
the most difficult is to give up.
I'm willing to wait forever.
Madame.
This is the temple of Bhai?ajyaguru.
The temple is small.
Can one's dream come true after worship?
Buddha Bhai?ajyaguru.
Your follower Dugu Jialuo would like to reduce 20 years of life,
in exchange of the safety of Yang Jian.
If you will make my dream come true,
please show me a good sign.
Whether we can meet again in our next life?
Our promise will link our life together.
A poem descibes our apart.
Hoping that our love will no longer end.
You feel that I'm not sincere enough?
Okay.
Buddha.
If you are willing to rescue Jian,
I'm willing not to receive any medical treatment for whole life.
Buddha hears me.
Dong Qu.
Madame.
Madame. What happened to you?
Madame.
Don’t come over.
Where is your mom?
Mom is not here.
Are your parents good to you?
They treat me the best.
You have to be filial to them in future.
Got it?
Go quickly.
Do you know that you look like a person I know.
She loves everyone surrounding her.
She carries too much of burden and responsibility in her life.
In my heart,
she is the most capable woman in the world.
Who is he?
When I grow up,
I want to be the most capable woman too.
When you get more,
you will lose more.
Love everyone surround you.
This is the only reason that you're born to the world.
You will understand when you grow up.
The weather turns cold.
Go in quickly.
I know who are you.
The sound of raindrop in the outskirt,
Going through a lifetime inadvertently,
the scene is still waiting for you after your return.
I don't bother loving you may be unrealistic,
I'm willing to travel around for a lifetime with you.
I know your eyes.
You're the murder to kill my parents on that day, right?
Since you know who am I,
do you afraid of me?
I'm not.
Don’t cry.
The sound of raindrop in the outskirt,
Going through a lifetime inadvertently,
the scene is still waiting for you after your return.
