[ I Will Never Let You Go ]
[ Episode 46 ]
Can you give me a chance to atone for my mom's crime?
Buqi.
Right now, you have leopards and wolves in front of you, pursuing soldiers behind you.
It'll be tough for you to enter the capital alone.
Why not go with me?
You won't be interrogated and examined if you're inside the Mo Family's carriage.
You can get to the capital sooner and come up with the best way to save them.
The one month deadline is approaching soon.
Buqi,
let me help you.
Jiansheng!
Go prepare the carriage. Buqi and I will wait for you in the Shili Pavillion.
Yes!
In the past, Prince of Cheng was the legitimate heir.
But evil people are heartless. The little brother usurped the throne by killing his older brother.
The whole country was ashamed of what he did.
Biluotian predicted that the dynasty would come to an end after five generations.
It's Heaven's will to let the Emperor lose his throne.
Generals, I'll soon fulfill the deceased Emperor's order.
Please follow me.
Let's get justice back according to Heaven's will.
I'm willing to follow Master and kill the Emperor!
Revolt!
Eldest Brother.
I want to meet someone in the capital.
She has been my personal bodyguard in Zhu Manor.
With her, I'll feel better.
Okay.
Jiansheng, make a quick stop at the courier station.
Got it.
Eldest Brother, you won't be mad, will you?
Why would I be mad?
Now, you have people who are loyal to you. I should be happy for you.
I know that you'll feel uncomfortable going to Mo Manor.
Once things get sorted out,
and your bodyguard has reached the capital, let her protect you.
Thank you, Eldest Brother.
Why are you laughing?
Nothing.
I was just thinking about how you looked when you arrived at the capital for the first time.
I didn't expect you would've been through so much
within the past few few years.
I frequently would think
that if I didn't insist on bringing you back to the capital,
maybe you could have remained as a happy beggar
in Xizhou Prefecture.
That would be impossible.
Even if you hadn't brought me to the capital, Chen Yu would have.
Master Lin from Yaolin Manor would also send people to escort me to the capital.
My fate would have remained the same.
Lord, please stop!
What's up?
My Lord, I beg you.
please give us some water.
Jiansheng, what's going on?
Young Lord, I'll go check.
Let's check it out.
Hang in there.
We can take a rest in the next town.
My Lord, please give us some water.
What happened?
The oldest grandson of Prince of Cheng took our house.
We have nowhere to go.
The oldest grandson of Prince of Cheng?
Well, go somewhere else for water.
We don't have any.
Young Lord! Young Lord!
- Young Lord. - What happened?
Someone who claimed to be the oldest grandson of Prince of Cheng
is planning to take the throne back for Prince of Cheng.
Also, the city ahead has been occupied.
It's Dongfang Shi.
Eldest Brother, we can't go to the city ahead. Let's take a detour.
You know who the oldest grandson of Prince of Cheng is?
He's also one of the people who is after me.
Our House of Zhu owes him money.
His Majesty used this excuse to say that our house was colluding with him,
so he ordered for our capture.
Buqi,
I didn't know your life for the past few years was more complicated than I imagined.
Okay.
- Jiansheng, let's take a detour. - Yes.
Go.
Let's go on the carriage first.
Your Majesty, please don't be angry!
Don't be mad? How can I not be mad?!
The rebels have already taken over ten cities of mine.
Right inside my territory, such a powerful force has been lurching.
How could you all have no clue?!
What's the use of giving people like you salary?!
Your Majesty,
Dongfang Shi has allied with the Northern Wilderness King. Their army is gigantic and vigorous.
Their force is too powerful that local troops surely wouldn't be able to resist.
According to our investigation, some local officials have long been bribed by the rebels.
That's why, we lost so many towns.
Asshole!
Now, the rumor about the deceased Emperor usurping the throne by poisoning Prince of Cheng
and trying to exterminate his clan is spreading everywhere.
They said the offspring of Prince of Cheng had endured humiliation all these years.
He wants to seek justice for his grandfather and make things right.
But little did I expect,
they would collude with the Northern Wilderness King.
I have completely brought shame to my ancestors!
Your Majesty,
Dongfang Shi colluded with our enemy and started a war. People surely wouldn't support them.
Don't worry. I believe
that Your Majesty will definitely defeat Dongfang Shi effortlessly.
Stop kissing my ass!
What I need now are competent generals and troops
to deal with Dongfang Shi!
Let me ask you. Why hasn't any of the warhorses from Feiyun Fortress
been sent to the battlefield?
And their young fortress master is working under Dongfang Shi now.
He even founded the Feiyun Calvary.
How could you let it happen?
Please spare us, Your Majesty!
Stop saying that!
The head madam of the capital's House of Mo
is Yun Qingyang's younger sister.
Now that the House of Yun has rebelled,
the House of Mo shall be responsible as well.
Confiscate House of Mo's property.
After I get my towns back,
everyone in Feiyun Fortress will be beheaded.
[ Mo Manor ]
Nothing has changed.
It's still the same.
You two, go that way!
- The rest of you, follow me! - Got it!
- Don't let any of them escape! - Yes!
Eldest Brother, do you think the Emperor found out about you bringing me back here?
I have no idea, but I don't think the words would've gotten out this fast.
Jiansheng.
Take Buqi to the secret chamber. I'll go check.
Eldest Brother, be careful.
Young Master!
Miss, come with me to the secret chamber.
Madam, don't be afraid. Hurry.
Quick. Let's quickly leave.
- Madam, just follow me. - Uncle Mo.
Uncle Mo!
Madam, hurry up and leave!
Uncle Mo!
Uncle Mo.
Go now.
Baixing. Baixing.
Baixing.
- Mom! - Yishan, you're finally back.
Officers, why are you suddenly confiscating our property?
The House of Mo betrayed the country. Of course, His Majesty would confiscate your property!
Brothers, attack!
- Mom, go now. - The tablet!
[ Memorial Tablet of Baixing ]
- Jiansheng! - Yes!
Eldest Brother.
Mom.
Yishan, a ghost! A ghost!
Mom, that's not a ghost. Buqi is not dead. I found her.
Jiansheng, go search for any hemostatic medicine in the room.
Got it.
[ Memorial Table of Baixing ]
You're still alive?
Sorry to let you down.
Mom, what happened? Why would the soldiers say that our House of Mo betrayed the country?
A horse plague struck Feiyun Fortress, so the warhorses couldn't be delivered.
Your uncle had no choice but to rebel.
I've sent someone to deliver you an urgent message,
but the messenger said he couldn't find you.
I then banked on the Emperor
not finding out about it so fast.
Little did I know, I was still a step too late.
Mom, sorry.
You... went to look for this bitch, am I right?
Before, His Majesty gave an order to capture the daughter of the House of Zhu.
That time, I was thinking, that they just looked similar.
From the look of it now, it was indeed her!
Yishan, Xue Fei caused the death of your father back then.
- Now, this bitch will also cause you to die! - Mom!
You really can't tell right from wrong, being so unrepentant!
It wasn't my mom's fault. It was Mo Baixing's fault!
Yet you kept blaming it on my mom. She's also a victim!
It was Xue Fei's fault. She seduced Baixing,
causing Baixing to die with depression. Now, because Yishan went looking for you,
we were left with no time to escape.
Now, really great. We meet again, and you've seen me in this pitiful situation.
House of Mo is gone. You must be happy, right?
Happy? Of course, I'm happy!
How can I not be happy since His Majesty's avenging my mom?
Buqi!
Mom! Stop arguing.
The most important thing for us now is to escape.
Yishan, flee now. Don't worry about me. Just go!
Young Master!
The medicine.
Yishan, the soldiers have surrounded us outside.
Don't worry about me. You can't make you way out with me.
Yishan, ever since I married your dad, I've never left the Mo Manor.
Don't worry. With your dad's company,
I won't be afraid.
Yishan, don't worry about me! Go now!
Mom! I can't leave you here all by yourself!
Yishan,
you've never been yourself ever since you were young.
In the future, since House of Mo is gone, you can finally be yourself.
Mom, I didn't suffer. It's true.
Jiansheng, there won't be that many soldiers around the kitchen area. Let's escape from there.
- Yes. - Mom, let's go.
Mom, stop being stupid!
Why?
Why won't you let me die? Don't you hate me and want me to die the most?
That's right. I do hate you.
But Eldest Brother has treated me well. I don't want him to be heartbroken.
I didn't expect to be saved by Xue Fei's daughter when I tried to kill myself.
Hua Buqi, don't you think I would be grateful to you.
I will never forgive you and your mother!
That's your business. I don't care.
You don't care?
Yishan!
Madam!
[ Memorial Tablet of Bai Xing ]
- Mom! - Madam!
Mom!
Mom! Mom!
- Mom! - Yishan,
I can finally be with your dad.
If you can't escape, I won't be able to rest in peace.
- No... - You all... hurry....
- Quickly go... - No!
Break open the door!
- Mom! - Madam!
Mom!
Eldest Brother! Eldest Brother, calm down!
Remember what your mom said. If you can't make it out, she won't rest in peace.
That way, you'll never be able to avenge her!
Jiansheng! Jiansheng!
Hurry! Let's go now!
Eldest Brother.
Eldest Brother!
Mom!
Jiansheng!
Quickly go!! Take care of my big brother!
Hurry!
Go chase them!
After them! Hurry!
Hurry! Chase them!
Hurry!
- You must be tired. Let's take a break. - Okay.
Buqi, we are now wanted by the government.
We can only hide in the morning and move at night. Let's see if we'll be able to hide from those pursuing soldiers that way.
It's still too risky.
Eldest Brother.
There are women's clothes here. You should put them on.
This way, they won't recognize you even if they search up to here.
- You want me to put on women's clothes? - This is the best way.
They're here to search for you. They won't have my portrait.
So, if I change into men's clothes, and you change into women's clothes,
maybe we'll be able to fool them.
I'm not used to wearing women's clothes.
Eldest Brother.
Actually, when I first got in the capital,
I knew you were a woman.
When you were heavily wounded, only your mom could approach you.
You are even more knowledgeable about lipsticks and rouges than me. Stop hiding from me.
Have you told others about it?
I know it's your secret. I've never told anyone.
Eldest Brother, you've been dressing like a male since you were young, so no one would know it.
You must've suffered a lot.
Stop hesitating. We don't have time. Hurry.
I've heard lately there's a powerful glossy ganoderma in the mountain ahead.
You two, stop!
Go!
Elder Brother, let's go.
Eldest Brother, you're so pretty.
My dad had always wanted a boy.
So after I was born,
my mom had raised me as a boy.
That's why, everyone around me thought I was a boy.
Later, my dad died in depression, and my mom was bullied by our relatives.
I had to step up and protect her.
The more I couldn't let anyone know I was a woman.
I have to pretend to be a man to survive in such a society where women are discriminated against.
Who says women are inferior to men? Eldest Brother, you have single-handedly supported the whole House of Mo.
How many men can achieve that?
When I was in Zhu Manor, if Zhu Shou and others hadn't helped me,
I couldn't have made it.
Buqi, thank you.
You know my mom harmed you,
but you have never wanted to harm us. Thanks.
No matter what happens, you'll always be the Eldest Brother who's very kind to me.
Let's go now.
Capture everybody! The government is hunting for wanted suspects. Capture them all!
Hey, you were asked to capture the suspect.
Why are you staring at a woman?
- Go! Go! You guys search over there! - Yes!
- You guys, go inside the house! - Yes!
We've found two people here!
Bring them here!
It's lucky you have hidden your identity well these years.
I don't think anyone will recognize that you're the Young Master of the House of Mo.
Eldest Brother, just use this to escape out of the capital.
His Majesty destroyed my house. There's no place for me in this world.
Since I'm wanted for rebellion, why don't I
just make it true? I plan to seek my uncle's help.
Buqi, the Emperor is also accusing the House of Zhu for rebellion.
Soon, Old Master Zhu will be beheaded.
Why don't you leave the capital with me and go support the grandson of Prince of Cheng?
Then, we can come up with a way to save Old Master Zhu.
Eldest Brother, did you forget what your mom said before she died?
She hoped you could live for yourself for once.
Do you think I can live freely
with the whole family's fate on my shoulder?
But if you really become a rebel, there's no way back.
House of Mo was destroyed. My mom died tragically,
I couldn't even bury her corpse.
I have to avenge this grudge. If I don't,
I won't be able to face my parents and everyone in my family.
- But Eldest Brother... - Buqi,
stop it. I've made up my mind.
Let's get out of the capital and join the grandson of Prince of Cheng.
I can't. Xiao Xia will arrive soon.
Once she's here, she can easily sneak into the garrison office with her level of martial arts
and make contact with Yuan Chong. Yuan Chong is the Young Master of the Capital City Garrison Office.
He surely has news about Chen Yu and my grandfather.
Eldest Brother, we are wanted in the capital.
It's more dangerous for you to be with me.
Okay. If that's the case,
let's split here.
Buqi, sorry, I wasn't able to help you.
You managed to help me enter the capital. If it weren't for you, I would have been long captured.
Buqi, we don't know when we'll
meet again after parting here.
Please take care.
Eldest Brother, you take care, too.
Who are you? Get off your horse!
I'm Mo Ruofei of House of Mo from the capital, the nephew of Lord Yun, leader of Feiyun Fortress.
May you please relay inform him that I'm here.
Fortress Master Yun is raising horses on the northeastern plains for Master.
General Yunlang is attacking Hanzhou with the Feiyun Cavalry.
Neither of them is in the camp.
Hanzhou?
Thank you for informing me.
You're the grandson of Prince of Cheng?
How dare you directly call His Highness by name?
Feiyun Fortress followed Your Highness to rebel
and the Emperor vented his anger on the House of Mo, having everyone in our house beheaded.
Now, I'm on my own.
I earnestly ask Your Highness to take me in. I'll be loyal to you and kill the Emperor.
Everybody says the Young Master of the House Mo is as sly as a fox,
but you can't even protect a little girl,
allowing your mom to poison Zhu brat. Why would I use you?
Please spare me. Buqi has always been the little sister that I dote the most.
But I was not aware of the feud of the last generation before.
And my mom... is just a pitiful woman.
Good thing, Buqi was showered with good luck and became the granddaughter of the House of Zhu.
Do you know how much suffering Zhu brat went through?
Calling her lucky is not going to make me spare you!
I'm willing to kill the enemies in the battlefield for Your Highness
and make up for my mistakes.
Good. Then I'll take you in.
- General Liu! - Here!
He's your soldier now. Make sure you train him well.
- I will obey your command. Take him back with us. - Will do.
General Liu.
You can live here.
You think it's too dirty?
Not at all.
That's good. Quickly put on the uniform and join the training.
Excuse me!
Is there a place here for me to get changed?
A place to get changed?
We are all guys. Why being such a pain in the ass?
Do you think you're still inside the luxurious Mo Manor?
Quickly get changed. Military orders don't wait!
General Liu.
I'm a newbie here. I'm not used to a lot of things.
Can you make an exception for me?
Let me get changed by myself.
His Highness ordered me to train you well. I dare not take your money.
Hurry! Don't act like a woman!
You're a woman who pretended to be a man. You must be a spy sent by the Emperor. Arrest her!
Soldiers!
Arrest her!
Your Highness, we didn't expect that this was a woman.
She must be up to something, since she pretended to be a man to get into our camp.
The genius kid of House of Mo is a woman?
Interesting.
Very interesting.
Your Highness, I've been dressing up as a man for convenience since I was a kid. I'm not up to anything evil.
I lost my temper and started the fight earlier
because I went through a lot lately.
House of Mo was destroyed, and my family members were killed.
That's why, I lost it. Please forgive me.
Forget it. I never make a fuss with a woman.
- You can go now. - Your Highness!
I want to stay in the military and avenge my mother.
You hurt my subordinate earlier.
I'm already being merciful for not punishing you.
Get out of my camp now.
I can pretend nothing has happened today.
My martial arts skill are excellent. Why not keep me here to make some contributions?
Because you're a woman.
Ask around. Who's willing to be led by a woman to fight a war?
You can either choose to be a bodyguard like Heifeng
or be a military doctor like Lin Dansha.
I started to run the House of Mo at the age of 10.
If Your Highness is willing to keep me as a general,
I have the confidence to make them work for me
without any complaints.
Even if I believe in your capacity,
I don't believe in your character;
let alone you're a woman.
What should I do
to make you believe me?
- You really want to stay? - Yes.
Get out, all of you.
Got it.
Get up.
You're pretty close to Zhu brat.
I'm sure, she won't guard against you.
If you bring her to my side,
I can make you a general who leads a thousand soldiers
and assign you your own separate tent.
I'll also have everyone who knew what happened today to shut up.
Why do you want to capture Buqi?
The Emperor gave the order to capture Buqi.
Now, he wants to behead Chen Yu and Grand Master Zhu.
It's clear he wants to lure Zhu brat there.
But if she ended up being captured by the Emperor,
she'll be dead.
I can protect her if she stays with me.
Why does the Emperor want to kill her?
You don't have to know. Just bring her here.
Don't worry. I won't hurt her.
She will still be my consort in the future.
Consort?
Many people in Suzhou know I like her.
If you don't believe, just ask around.
I believe in you.
I'm guessing Zhu brat is already in the capital.
But none of the people I sent had news of her.
You're wanted by the Emperor. Do you dare to go back to the capital?
I'll definitely bring Buqi back.
My Lady! My Lady!
- Xiao Xia! - My Lady!
Have you been followed?
Don't worry. We were very discreet in coming here. Nobody could have followed us.
Great.
Yuan Chong, do you know the situation of Chen Yu and Grand Master Zhu?
I didn't see Grand Master Zhu, so I don't have any news about him.
But I do frequently see Chen Yu. He's not well.
What happened to him?
The Emperor destroyed his martial arts.
He then asked for my medicinal wine, and had me deliver them to him.
I think he just wants to use alcohol to forget about the sorrow.
Where is he?
Is he in the celestial prison? Can we rescue him?
No, he's imprisoned by the Emperor in the imperial palace.
There's no hope to rescue him
unless the rebellion army attacks the palace.
Take me to the palace to meet the Emperor.
No, Lady, you're biting the hook.
She's right. Grand Master Zhu and Chen Yu are convicted of the crime of betrayal and rebellion.
If you go see the Emperor, it's like walking into a trap.
There's no hope. You'll only sacrifice yourself.
I can rescue them.
His Majesty gave the order
to behead Chen Yu and Old Master Zhu after a month
because he wants me to show up.
As long as I show up, they won't be killed.
Chen Yu won't be killed by the Emperor as long as you show up?
But why?
It's inconvenient for me to explain the reasons.
Just take me into the palace.
Okay. As long as you can rescue Chen Yu, I can take you there now.
Thank you.
- My Lady— - Xiao Xia, there's no time.
This is the only way to save grandfather and Chen Yu.
Believe me. Their lives will be saved once I enter the palace.
As for how to escape afterwards, I'll figure something out with Chen Yu.
Just be at ease. Stay here outside and be ready to assist us.
My Lady, you have to be careful.
Don't worry. With my cleverness, I can definitely change danger into safety.
Who's there?
Eldest Brother?!
Why are you still in the capital?
Buqi, if you go see the Emperor,
will you definitely be killed?
Who told you such nonsense?
Did you see Dongfang Shi?
Then it must be true.
Eldest Brother.
I'm doing this for your own good.
I'm sorry.
Stop! Stop!
Eldest Brother.
So cruel.
Zhu brat, we meet again.
Where are Xiao Xia and Yuanchong?
They're imprisoned somewhere else.
Without my order, nobody will harm them.
Dongfang Shi, seems like you still want to sacrifice me to Heaven,
so you can get Biluotian's treasure. Am I right?
If I wanted to sacrifice you,
I would've taken you that day. Why would I bother doing all of this?
Don't worry. I'm Prince of Cheng's grandson.
Only my grandpa is above me in this camp.
But he doesn't know you're here.
So, you're very safe.
Dongfang Shi, please let me go.
The Emperor will behead Old Master Zhu in a few days.
I have to save him.
Master Zhu Ba is locked deep inside the celestial prison
that's heavily guarded. How can you save him?
I can beg the Emperor.
House of Zhu never wanted to rebel.
We just owed you money. Who knew you wanted to rebel?
Do you think the Emperor will believe you?
Don't sacrifice yourself in vain.
As long as I tell His Majesty what happened,
he will release my family.
Zhu brat,
since the Emperor arrested Chen Yu and Old Master Zhu,
he must surely have known your real identity.
He did it in order to let you dig your own grave.
If he captured you, he wouldn't let you off like I will.
He'll interrogate you about the whereabouts of the map and the sacred item.
Then he'll send you to Biluotian and sacrifice you to get the treasure.
What if he didn't know?
Master Zhu Ba is my only family.
Please let me go, so I can save him!
Zhu brat,
this matter isn't just about Chen Yu and Old Master Zhu.
It's also about the war between me and the Emperor.
I won't let you risk it.
Stay here.
Once the dust settles, I'll find a safe place
to settle you down.
Take a good rest.
Servant!
- Guard her. - Yes.
Cousin!
Father was so happy to hear that you're back.
He'll be here soon.
No wonder you're the number one genius kid of the capital.
You became a general who leads a thousand soldiers as soon as you got into the military camp.
Not like me,
I only got the position after spending more than 10,000 warhorses.
- Did you take Hanzhou? - Yes.
I'll head to Liuzhou soon.
Cousin, where's Jiansheng? He's not with you?
Where did you settle Aunt down?
House of Mo's property has been confiscated.
My mom died.
Jiansheng also died.
The hundreds of people in Mo Manor...
have mostly died.
Those who didn't die
are barely making a living.
How did it happen? Didn't Father send the message to Aunt beforehand?
It was my fault.
If my mom didn't wait for me, she would've left Mo Manor in time.
It was all my fault.
If it weren't for the fact that Feiyun Fortress
was forced to participate in the rebellion,
House of Mo wouldn't suffer.
There's no point to talk about it.
What I need to do now
is to gain power from Dongfang Shi.
I'll do whatever he wants me to do.
I want to become the commanding general leading the whole army.
I'll kill the Emperor by myself
to avenge my mom.
Xiao Xia, eat mine.
You only eat a small portion every time
and left half to me. Isn't it bad for your health?
It's okay. I am a guy, but I don't eat much.
I only need a little bit to get full.
Eat.
Do I eat too much?
No. No. You just practice too hard.
The more you practice, the more easily you get hungry.
Therefore, you eat more.
Do you now know that my martial arts is bad?
If you add up all the time I practiced martial arts,
it won't be as much as the time you spent on practicing for a year.
