[ I Will Never Let You Go ]
[ Episode 25 ]
Why are you here?
Master.
You have been poisoned.
You are hurt. Is it serious?
I was poisoned in the inn.
Luckily, Hei Yan stopped them so I was able to escape.
I was afraid that they will attack you,
so...I especially came here to help.
You are poisoned to this state. How are you going to help me?
I didn't punish you before when you stalked me up to here,
but I've warned you that you may not set foot at this pace!
You better pray that those who were chasing you won't be following up to here.
Or else, I will kill you before they do.
Forgive me, Master.
Ask for forgiveness after your poison is cleared.
Watch the activities of the Prince Manor for me.
I suspect that it was that old sneaky fool, Seventh Prince,
who tricked all of us.
He knew the estimate location of Biluotian.
Those two who ran away from Biluotian
must have been hiding inside the Prince Manor.
Yes.
[ Prince of Xin Manor]
Fu is not back yet?
Your Highness, stop thinking about Fu.
I don't even know what you asked him to do.
You should just rest now.
Greetings, Your Majesty!
Long live the emperor!
-Get up. -Thank you, Your Majesty.
In following Liu Mingyue to find Biluotian,
-did you find any information about it? -Your Majesty,
that Liu Mingyue
was indeed up to no good.
On the way to Biluotian,
she poisoned the Seventh Prince's guards.
Did you find the
location of Biluotian?
Not yet. But,
when I was following Liu Mingyue,
I found that mysterious person
who sneaked into Biluotian and killed my tribe people.
I stole this half part of the map from him.
Did you catch him?
Not yet.
This person is a cold-hearted
skillful fighter.
I am requesting that Your Majesty
send more highly skilled fighters to accompany me.
I will definitely catch him.
You can have the fighters.
But, I've been waiting for many years.
I'm losing my patience.
I don't want to wait anymore.
Do you know the consequence?
All these years, I've been trying my best.
I haven't slacked off by even a bit.
Luckily,
we have the half of the map.
I am earnestly requesting Your Majesty
to allow my little sister join me
in finding Biluotian.
If you can't even find it,
how could your little sister find Biluotian's location
with just half of the map?
Your Highness, I wouldn't dare to lie to you.
People are fools.
They think that as long as they find the Saintess,
the entrance to the Biluotian treasure will be opened.
Back when my little sister escaped from Biluotian with me,
there are some small paths that my little sister
remembers better than me.
These past years,
in order to protect her safety,
I hid this matter.
But now that we have the half of the map,
I earnestly ask Your Majesty to allow my sister
find Biluotian
with me.
Get up.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
According the information I got,
the Seventh Prince is dying.
Once he dies,
you don't have to be his spy anymore.
Just focus on looking for Biluotian.
I will send people to help you.
Yes.
You may leave now.
The Seventh Prince
is still waiting for your report.
Your Majesty,
I...
...would like to see my little sister.
Bring him to her.
Yes.
This way please.
Thank you, Eunuch.
Little Sister!
Older Brother.
Little Sister,
I wasn't able to visit you for so long.
Do you blame me?
I know you are busy.
Also you are in the Prince Manor.
It's not convenient for you to come to the palace.
I only have happiness when I see you.
Everything is coming to an end.
I've found the route
to Biluotian.
You remember everything?
What about the map to Biluotian?
I found that, too.
I've told the emperor
to let you find Biluotian
with me.
Once we entered Biluotian,
we are not coming out.
-
Is that okay with you?
We are not coming out.
Let's not come out ever again.
This place is full of greed,
killing, and pain.
Brother, I don't want to enter this secular world ever again.
I miss our days in Biluotian.
The emperor used you to threaten me
in finding Biluotian.
The prince also used me to find Biluotian's treasure.
Now, I've found Biluotian.
But,
I feel like I've wronged someone.
Is it Yu'er that you've mentioned to me?
Even though the Seventh Prince has wild ambitions,
if I didn't show up,
maybe those wild ambitions would just slowly wear away.
He will be an idle Prince just living the remainder of his life here in the capital.
My appearance swelled his wild ambitions.
He wanted the treasure, so he can takeover the empire.
The emperor found out about his thoughts,
so he had me secretly watching him.
Even if the Prince passes, the emperor
would never believe in Yu'er.
Yu'er's life...
...will not be peaceful.
Brother, we can't barely take care of ourselves.
Stop thinking about those facts that can't be changed.
I know.
It's just that when I thought of Yu'er,
I...
...start to worry.
Brother...
I need to go back and report to the Prince.
Wait for my good news.
We can finally go back now.
How is it?
Your Highness, that person was very cautious.
We were eventually discovered by him,
so we didn't find the map. But we found the
entrance of Biluotian when we were following him.
It's good that you found it.
Fu,
I don't have much time left.
I've told everything
to Yu'er.
Yu'er will be relying on your help from now on.
I know about Liu Mingyue killing the guards.
Don't touch her yet.
I will have her
pave a road for Yu'er.
Your Highness, don't worry.
I will try my best to help Yu'er.
Your Highness! Your Highness!
Royal doctor! Get the royal doctor!
Your Highness! Your Highness!
Greetings, Your Majesty.
How is the Seventh Prince doing?
The royal physicians are saying that he will not survive beyond today.
Then I...
...shall send him off.
- Take me to the Seventh Prince Manor. - Your Majesty,
let's wait for the rain to stop first.
Royal Father.
Your Highness.
What am I going to do without you?
Yu'er.
You are still young.
Don't be trapped in the capital.
Royal Father, don't talk.
Just rest.
Don't be like me,
having nothing accomplished.
Royal Brother!
Your Majesty.
-Your Majesty. -Royal Brother,
are you feeling better?
Your Majesty.
Don't move. Don't move. Just lie down.
Your Majesty,
there are some words
that I want to say only to you.
You all may leave us.
Royal Brother, if there is anything you want to say,
just say it.
I might...
...not be able to keep you company any longer.
I've caused you to suffer.
We are biological brothers.
All these years,
you tried your best managing our state treasury.
But I...
...didn't even conferred you any title.
You don't have to blame yourself.
Being able to
stay by your side,
to receive the vast graces of the emperor,
why would I still covet for some fiefdom
and title?
Right now,
I don't have much time left.
But, there is one thing that I want to ask from you.
Royal Brother,
just tell me.
I am worrying about Yu'er the most.
Even though he doesn't say anything,
I can tell that
he doesn't want to be trapped in the capital.
I beg Your Majesty
to let him leave.
Your Majesty,
do you still doubt me?
Yes,
when I was young,
I was proud.
I did have
the thought of overthrowing you.
Hence,
I did spend some time to find Biluotian.
But,
ever since you
became the emperor.
you cared for me very much.
Also, with mother's convincing,
I gave up the thought of usurping the throne long time ago.
The only wish to wholeheartedly manage the state treasury for you.
Your Majesty,
can't you see?
All these years,
you have tired yourself.
Working for my royal brother
is not tiring at all.
I only beg you
to let Yu'er leave.
Royal Brother, don't get agitated!
Your Majesty,
for the sake of
us being brothers,
let Yu'er leave.
Royal Brother,
how could I pick on Yu'er?
Yu'er is also my nephew.
If he doesn't want to be in the capital,
then I...
...will reward him a fief.
The Heir Apparent of the Prince of Xin, receive the imperial decree!
As decreed by His Majesty,
Heir Apparent of Prince of Xin, Chen Yu, is being granted the Dongping Commandery.
His title will be the Commandery Prince of Dongping.
Without the emperor's decree, he may not come back to the capital.
You are leaving the first thing after Prince of Xin's funeral.
That's all.
I will accept your decree.
Get up.
- Thank you, Your Majesty. - Thank you, Your Majesty.
Respectfully sending off the emperor back to the palace!
Royal Father!
-Your Highness! -Royal Father!
Royal Father.
-Royal Father. -Your Highness!
-Royal Father! -Your Highness!
-Royal Father!
-Your Highness!
300 coins.
200.
220.
My Lady!
An urgent news from the capital.
The Seventh Prince has passed away.
The emperor let the Chief Commandant husband of the Elder Princess
manage the state treasury.
Our house doesn't really have much interaction
with the husband of the Elder Princess.
We need to spend some effort now to
make connections again.
Is there any news about the Seventh Prince's Heir Apparent, Chen Yu?
None.
The emperor didn't let him take over the state treasury.
Did he arrange something else for him?
My Lady,
I heard that the emperor gave a posthumous title
"The Loyal Prince" to the Seventh Prince.
He also allowed the Prince's concubine to continue living in the manor until the end of her days.
Chen Yu was given the title of "Commandery Prince of Donping".
Once the Seventh Prince's funeral is over,
he needs to take off
and head to Dongping Commandery in Xichu Province, at the north of the river.
No wonder there isn't any news about Chen Yu.
The bald phoenix is worst than a chicken.
Us royal vendors
only care about who has the right to manage the state treasury.
We don't care about other things.
Wait, what is Dongping Commandery like?
Xichu Province is quite deserted.
Dongping Commandery has lots of bandits.
Assigning such a lifeless land to the Heir Apparent,
it seems that the emperor is guarding against him too.
He is not at ease to make him stay by his side.
The Heir Apparent got expelled out of the capital this time.
Is it really very deserted there?
The book says that
Dongping Commandery is mostly made up countryside mountains and swamps.
Every fifth month, there will be miasma.
If humans and animals breath it in,
it's incurable. It's as scary as tigers.
That's a horrible place!
Zhu Shou, go to the pharmacy right now and make some medicines against mosquitoes and bugs,
and anti-fever pills. Send them to Chen Yu before he takes off.
My Lady,
Chen Yu has obviously been demoted.
Why is our House of Zhu still fawning on him?
The Seventh Prince passed away,
and the state treasury has a new person in charge.
No one will care for a demoted, unlucky Heir Apparent.
What we are doing now is providing timely help.
We can beat others
in winning the favor of the Prince of Dongping.
Also, even though Dongping Commandery is far away,
there are still things there that we don't have here in the south.
We just need to be close to the Prince of Dongping.
Afterwards, if we want to establish businesses catering these special products,
won't it be more convenient?
Oh my god.
My Lady really has great foresight.
Based on my knowledge,
there is a kind of tea with big leaves from the mountains of Dongping that is really amazing.
Really?
It has a strong fragrant and longlasting even when brewed.
It tastes nothing like the tea from here in the south.
If we can get that tea
through the Commandery Prince,
we will surely
-can rise above all our competitors and make lots of money. -Great!
Let us focus our aim on those tea in Dongping then.
The tea houses need new kinds of tea the most.
Those wealthy people who are tired of the southern tea will definitely be willing to pay high prices
to buy the tea from Dongping.
By then,
we can just slowly count the silvers.
Let's go prepare.
- Hurry. - Go now!
Let's go.
Chen Yu.
How are you doing right now?
Xiao Liu,
the emperor asked for me right away.
You will be guarding the door tonight.
If there are visitors,
just say that I am too sorrowful to meet any guests.
How long will you be gone, Young Master?
Six hours will be enough.
Okay. I will go guard the door.
Young Lord Yuan.
Where is Zhangqing? Is he inside?
He is.
Young Lord Yuan,
the young master is not in a good mood.
He wants to be left alone.
He doesn't want others to bother him.
The Seventh Prince just passed away.
-Yes. -And he has to leave the capital per the emperor's order
to a small and remote commandery.
He must be very upset.
That's why...
I will go comfort him.
Young Lord Yuan, the young master doesn't want to be bothered.
Then I really have to comfort him.
What if he is going to do something stupid in there?
No, Young Lord Yuan!
Young Lord Yuan!
Young Lord Yuan, listen to m... Young Lord Yuan!
Where is Zhangqing?
Since you are here,
you will need to guard the room for me for a couple of hours.
Don't let the others know that I'm not in the manor.
Where are you going?
Even though if you're able to guess it,
just pretend that you don't know.
Hey, Zhangqing!
What are you going to do? Zhangqing!
Where are you going?
Greetings, Your Majesty.
Get up.
Why did you demand my presence, Your Majesty?
I ask you to come in the middle of the night,
because I don't want the others to know that
you will have another mission in Dongping.
Yu'er,
you are my nephew.
I know you since you are a child.
My imperial mother even blamed me a little
for sending you to Dongping.
But it's okay.
If you don't want to go,
I can retrieve my order
and have you be in charge of the vault.
I am willing to go.
You will not regret it?
Since I'm here,
I wouldn't regret it.
Do you know why did I send you to Dongping?
I don't know, your Highness.
Before the Seventh Prince passed,
he told me that
he found that
the Mingyue Villa has something to do with Biluotian.
Also, he found things from Biluotian
in the Mingyue Villa.
And he handed them to you.
Biluotian?
Didn't the Seventh Prince say
that the thing has something to do with Biluotian?
Father has never told me about Biluotian
has something to do with the Mingyue Villa.
He also has never gave me anything.
Did you mistaken, your Highness?
The Seventh Prince couldn't talk clearly.
Then maybe I was mistaken.
But,
the Mingyue Villa is involved with Biluotian
was something I heard clearly.
Yu'er,
do you know the predictions of Biluotian?
I did hear some rumors.
"The ones who have Buluotian's treasure runs the world."
Do you believe that?
I don't believe it, naturally.
Treasures are probably just some money.
What can that much money do?
If whoever is the richest runs the world,
isn't that the most ridiculous thing?
Not quite.
Before the soldiers
there shall be supplies.
The military pay and supplies
need money.
If someone has money and military,
and he has a big ego at the same time,
this person
can do something big.
Biluotian has always been my biggest concern.
The relationship between the Mingyue Villa and Biluotian
has to be clear.
Dongping is less than 5 km from the Mingyue Villa.
And the Mingyue Villa,
has been there for more than twenty years.
Their power is complex and reaches everywhere.
So,
you will need to be careful.
Yes.
This is extremely important.
Take this token.
If there is an emergency,
using this token
can move soldiers from every province.
Take care of it.
The military only recognize the token, not the person.
Your Highness, if there is anything,
I will send the message to the palace first thing.
I'm not the best at fighting.
If anything happen to me,
I don't want this token
to be taken by bad people.
Forget it.
Yu'er,
you are the most skillful fighter
among your generation.
I believe that nothing will happen to you.
If you found Biluotian for me,
or clear the power behind the Mingyue Villa,
I will treat you well.
I will find you a good place
and be far away from the deserted place like Dongping.
Thank you, your Highness.
You may leave.
Someone!
Your Highness.
Send someone to spy on the Prince of Dongping.
If he shows any signs of betrayal,
execute him on the spot.
Yes.
Why hasn't he came back yet?
What is he doing?
Lord Yuan.
Lord Bai is also here. What do we do?
Jian Fei.
You are here, too?
How is Zhangqing?
I heard that he is not receiving and guests.
I am worried, so I'm here to check on him.
Let's go. Let's talk somewhere else.
What is happening with Zhangqing?
I want to check on him first.
He is really upset
and wasted.
Let's not see him now.
The Seventh Prince just passed,
and he got demoted to a deserted place in Dongping.
He must be really upset.
That's why I want to go comfort him.
Jian Fei. Jian Fei.
Forget about it. Let's not bother him.
Don't you know him?
He is the kind who keeps
his emotions inside
and not tell people.
Your talking will go to waste.
If the girl from Su Zhou is here,,
maybe it would work.
What girl from Su Zhou?
Before this,
Zhangqing and I were looking for a doctor in Su Zhou.
When we were in Su Zhou, we ran into a
beautiful yet gentle lady from a wealthy family.
The lady was been bullied.
Zhangqing was being a hero that stood up for her.
Eventually, the lady's heart belongs to him.
When the two of them were mad in love,
he got the message about his father's illness.
Zhangqing came back to the capital without stopping.
But the lady didn't believe him.
And she insists that Zhangqing abandoned her,
so she found an excuse and left Su Zhou.
Now,
Zhangqing has to go to Dongping per the emperor's order.
He probably can never see the lady again.
The misunderstanding will never be clear.
How could that happen?
I didn't know that Zhangqing is such a sentimental person.
That's what I say.
Now that Zhangqing needs to be in mourning for three years.
He cannot marry anyone for three years.
I don't think the lady is going to wait for him.
If it was me,
don't even say three years,
I can't even wait for three months.
I will marry someone soon before that.
The Seventh Prince passed away.
There isn't anything that Zhangqing can be happy about.
No wonder he is this sad.
So we need to talk about it
and see if we can solve it for him.
But, don't say it in front of him.
Or we will stir up the upsetting past for him.
How do we solve it?
Don't tell me you are going to abduct the lady for Zhangqing
and send her to Dongping Manor?
That's a good idea.
What good idea?
Don't tell me you are going to bully a civilian lady.
Ok ok ok. No abduction.
Look how scared you are.
We can't hide it form Zhangqing.
Let's hear what he says.
Lord Bai. Lord Bai.
I just told you that he is wasted.
What are you going to do inside?
Yeah.
Are you two hiding something from me?
How could we hide anything from you?
Jian Fei.
Come inside if you have something to tell me.
Didn't you say that he's wasted?
Come on in.
Zhangqing, regarding the lady in Su Zhou,
I will have someone to ask for you.
We can confirm it first.
How about marrying her after the 3-year-mourning?
Jian Fei,
don't listen to him.
Where did that lady come from?
Didn't you saved a lady when you were in Su Zhou?
The lady's name was Hua Hua. She is Miss Sun of the Zhu Manor.
Her eyes were so bright.
They were unforgettable.
It must be Zhangqing's type.
Hua Hua?
What does the lady look like you said?
What does she look like?
Just that.
I saw her once. I can't remember much.
No,
what about her eyes?
Bright. Super bright.
Unforgettable.
But, I forgot what she looked like.
Zhangqing, what's wrong?
You know this Hua Hua?
I don't.
I'm just curious
what do the eyes look like
that Yuanchong can't forget.
If you want to see them,
the 15th of August, Zhu Manor will hold a banquet for Miss Sun to celebrate her finding her origin.
You will know when you see her.
Zhangqing is going to Dongping!
Right right right.
Look at my memories. I forgot.
I was thinking about attending the banquet with you
and look at Shrimpy.
It looks like only Jian Fei can keep me company.
Ok, let's not talk about this.
In two days,
I will be heading to Dongping.
Let's get wasted
tonight.
-Here. -Here. -Here.
Hua Hua.
Hua Buqi.
Zhangqing,
Shrimpy wants to see you.
Come to the Zhu Manor with me.
She wants to meet me?
Does she know me?
She wants to see you as the Lotus Robe Knight.
I'm just...I'm just saying
saving people is one thing. Why did you carve the lotus flower sign on the arrow?
I couldn't even pretend to be you.
Was that you?
Were you the one called Hua Hua?
Yu'er. Yu'er.
Teacher.
I have something to say to you.
Yu'er, your father have told you everything.
Before he passed, he told the emperor.
He gave you the title, Prince of Dongping.
So you can leave the capital and fulfill your ambition.
Yu'er, what do you think?
I am not going to treat Buqi as a tool for taking over the world.
Also, I don't have the desire of taking over the world.
I'm afraid that I am disappointing you and my father.
You are as what I expected you to be.
You are a responsible, humble person.
Also, you would not let people suffer
for your selfishness.
You know me the best, teacher. Aren't you disappointed, teacher?
Why would I be disappointed?
Biluotian is beyond this noisy world.
Us Biluotian people
do not want to enter this world.
If it wasn't for the mysterious person who killed my people,
I would still be living a happy life there with them.
It's just that his Highness lost many things
in order to get the treasure.
Yu'er, I don't want you to be like that.
Don't worry, teacher. I will not be obsessed with the throne.
Since you don't want to be the emperor,
then give me the holy object and the map.
So I can use them to save my sister.
Father said that
your sister is locked inside the palace.
I can go in and out of the palace. I can help you.
I don't want you to be in danger.
Actually,
I am the emperor's spy
for spying on the Prince's Manor.
But don't worry, I am only doing it to save my sister.
I didn't say everything about the manor to the emperor.
He only knows about Biluotian's treasure, but he doesn't know anything about the holy object and the Goddess.
Once my sister and I enter Biluotian,
we will not come out.
Without the map, even if you found the holy object and the Goddess,
you can't find Biluotian.
If that' so, in order to help you and your sister to start your second lives
and to prevent Buqi from becoming the sacrifice of people fighting for the treasure,
I am willing to help.
We will have to wait for the emperor's notice.
I think it will be these two days.
There is one thing I don't understand.
The emperor gave me the title, Prince of Dongping.
He is actually having me to watch the Mingyue Villa and Biluotian.
Since the emperor knows that my father wanted to overthrow him,
why did he have me to investigate? Wouldn't he be afraid that I will find the treasure?
What are you talking about? The emperor sent you to investigate it?
Yes.
The emperor is doubtful.
It's must be that he doesn't believe some of the things I told him.
He suspect that the Seventh Prince has other secret.
So he sent you to find the treasure.
So he can play the waiting game.
I am afraid that the emperor miscalculated.
I don't want the treasure at all.
What is your plan, Yu'er?
I will investigate the Mingyue Villa for the emperor.
But it is only for solving one of his problems.
So the world would not suffer from warfare.
Once it's over, I will find Buqi
and spend the rest of our lives together.
Right.
This person is the mysterious person who sneaked into Buluotian and killed my people.
He is probably the person behind Liu Mingyue.
I stole the map from him.
He is probably suspecting the Prince's Manor. He is a skillful fighter.
Do not underestimate him.
Yu'er, you will have to be careful.
I'm only asking you to do these.
Once the emperor sends me
to find Buluotian,
we will part from each other.
We probably would not able to see each other for the rest of our lives.
Be careful.
Bring it over there.
Manager Shou, the Zhu Manor sent something for you.
We heard that his Highness is heading to Dongping Manor. There will be many bugs there.
The Zhu Manor especially prepared
these insectifuge and detoxing pills. Just in case his Highness will need them.
Thank you for your effort, Manager Shou.
Don't mention. Don't mention. Thanks to the his Highness, the Zhu Manor's got the rights to run government money.
This is what we are supposed to do.
There must be many things to be packed for the long trip.
I will stop bothering.
Please.
Young master, the Zhu Manor not only sent the emergency box,
there are also 10 hundred thousand taels of silver in the box.
They heard that we are going to Dongping and the order of "you may not come back to the capital without order".
Everyone thinks that the emperor has beef with you so he demoted you.
Those people from the good families didn't even dare to come visit.
But this Zhu Manor sent meds and silver.
What do they want?
What do they want? We will find out once we get there.
