[I Will Never Let You Go]
[Episode 44]
[Mo Manor]
Please don't be anxious, Young Master's Cousin. I've had people inform the Lin's.
Please.
Where's my cousin and my aunt?
Young master's gone to the south for business.
Madam's gone to worship Buddha and will be back soon.
Gone to the south for business?
Brother Yuquan.
A horse plaque suddenly swept across Feiyun Fortress. We're in urgent need of two herbs called bitter grass and iron horse lotus.
I'll get them from the storage.
Dansha, we've run out of these two herbs.
Impossible, brother.
I wrote a prescription containing bitter grass yesterday for a patient.
How come we've run out?
We only had a small amount of these two herbs.
I just dealt with them myself a few days ago.
The Wu Manor had a great demand of them.
That's why, I remember it well.
I'll try looking around then.
I don't believe that not a single pharmacy in the capital has them.
What's wrong, brother?
Little sister, I've gotten news from that man.
He's negotiating with Feiyun Fortress, so we can't give Yun Lang his herbs.
Brother! If the plague didn't get controlled in time,
many battle steeds will die!
If His Majesty blames them, Feiyun Fortress will lose everything!
Why are we helping that man accomplish his evil plan, brother?!
I do not want this, either.
But I've been trying to produce the cure without success.
If we gave the herbs to Yun Lang, it would be us who would die!
I'd rather have myself killed than anything bad happening to Brother Yun!
Little sister!
So you'd rather something bad happen to me?
You're my only family in this world.
I'm the one who care the most about you.
You're well aware that Yun Lang is marrying you not because of love.
And also, Fortress Master Yun and Madam Mo,
they don't favor our family background at all.
Stop it!
Sister!
Now with the support of the Mo family,
we've become the biggest medicine dealer in the city.
Madam Mo has totally trusted us with the business.
I've risen to today's position through so much.
I don't want to die.
I also don't want you to die for someone who doesn't love you.
Stop it!
Sister, I'm sorry.
I'll find you a better husband in the future.
[ Bai Cao (Hundred Herbs) Medicine ]
We're really sorry. Take care.
I'm so sorry.
Young Lord Yun.
Is Brother Yuquan going out?
I'm about to. Have you found the two herbs yet?
Not yet.
I've asked the Wu's that you've mentioned,
but they've run out of the herbs.
I never thought that whoever set up Feiyun Fortress can create such a medicine shortage in the capital.
Then, what's your plan?
I have to keep searching.
By the way, where's Dansha? I have something to say to her.
Sister's out looking for the herbs for you. You two must have missed out on each other.
What do you need to tell her? I'll pass the word.
It's fine to tell you as well.
At present, Feiyun Fortress can't even protect itself. I don't want Dansha to get involved.
So, I'd like to cancel our engagement, and I hope you would understand.
I do understand your concern.
I'll tell her for you.
Many thanks.
Master Yun.
Who are you?
Aren't you that wanted man?!
I am.
Master Yun,
if you'd like the people in Feiyun Fortress to lose their lives,
take me as you want.
But if not, listen to me before you decide.
Who on earth are you?
- Leave us! - Yes!
That's really a badge of Prince of Cheng?
Right.
Now the number of battle steeds in Feiyun Fortress
is well under what the emperor demands.
And he won't believe at all that you couldn't provide the steeds due to a plague.
Do you remember what happened during the last plague?
It was you who poisoned my horses?
I'm fighting the emperor. Of course, I must weaken him.
You hurt my fortress, and now you want me to cooperate with you?
Treason is a major crime that would get your entire clan executed!
For a talent like Master Yun,
the emperor just made you a royal merchant. He doesn't know how to use people.
Master Yun,
as long as you promise me to raise and train horses for me,
and help the grandson of Prince of Cheng to take back the throne,
you'll then be a founding general of top rank.
So Master Yun
is betting the hundreds of lives in the whole Feiyun Fortress on the emperor's mercy?
Let me be frank with you. You will suffer a terrible loss.
As the Biluotian prophecy goes, "This dynasty will end on the fifth emperor."
Even the heaven don't want him to sit tight on that throne.
It's the will of the heaven for the grandson of Prince of Cheng to take it back.
Besides, you and Prince of Cheng go way back.
I've heard about that prophecy.
"The one who obtains the treasure of Biluotian will run the world."
Master Yun, I will get the treasure.
As long as you cooperate,
I guarantee the safety of all of you here.
What's more, you will be promoted to a high ranking official and given nobility title.
You should be well aware whether to make this deal with me or not.
This is a choice of life and death for Feiyun Fortress.
I need to think twice.
Please do.
It's just we don't have much time. I'll give you one day.
This time tomorrow, I'll be here.
And I hope good news awaits.
I'll take my leave.
Master, Miss Lin and Young Master have brought back the medicine.
Now, they're heading back to the ranch.
Yun Qi, follow that man who just left.
Be careful. Don't let him see you.
Find out where he's staying.
Yes.
If it's for love, a woman
can really put life and death aside.
Find your way into Feiyun Fortress.
Give a message to Lin Dansha and tell her to meet me here.
Yes.
Dansha, I should really thank you this time.
If you hadn't found those herbs and given them to me in time,
Feiyun Fortress would've suffered greater loss.
Brother Yun,
you've thanked me over twenty times from the capital till now.
I'm engaged to you.
Should we still be so polite to each other?
What's wrong?
I've thought about it for long.
I think it's better if we cancel our engagement.
Why?
Think twice, would you?
I've told your brother Yuquan about canceling our engagement.
And he said yes.
But I didn't!
Brother Yun,
is it because Feiyun Fortress lost a great number of battle steeds,
yet the imperial court ordered to send all the horses to the army?
You said that because you didn't want me to get implicated, am I right?
Even if you don't think for yourself,
at least think for your older brother!
You're his only little sister! And we're not yet married.
You don't need to die for me! Do you understand?
But you've already given your letter of marrying me!
Being a couple means we live and die together!
I will live and die together with you.
Brother Yun, too bad I don't have much time to live.
Young Master!
- What's the matter? - Master asked for you.
Okay.
Go.
Lin Dansha, Master wants to see you.
I want to see him as well.
Dad, Dansha has brought us the medicine for the plague. We did lose a lot this time,
but we've made it through. As long as we report to his majesty honestly,
we shouldn't have too much trouble.
- All of you, leave us! - Yes!
Lang, sit.
I will.
Someone from Prince of Cheng came today. He's one of the wanted criminals by his majesty.
Prince of Cheng?
Is there anyone still alive from his bloodline?
I've seen the badge. It's genuine.
But what's he doing here when he's wanted by his majesty?
To seek our cooperation in assisting the grandson of Prince of Cheng in ascending to the emperor's throne.
Dad, don't tell me you agreed.
I didn't agree, nor did I turn him down.
Dad! It's already suspicious that we had the plague.
And now, when we're in the middle of trouble, someone from Prince of Cheng showed up.
I guess the plague was their doing.
No need to guess. They've admitted. It was their doing.
Dad, then why are you hesitating? We can't say yes to them.
For one thing, the man's abilities are fathomless.
Even his majesty's people got bribed by him to frame us up.
This time, maybe our family's property will really get confiscated.
Another reason is he said one thing which affected me.
Our Feiyun Fortress raise and train the best battle steeds.
After providing his majesty for all these years, we shouldn't just be a measly royal merchant.
Third, the one he's supporting is the grandson of Prince of Cheng.
Back in the days, our family were quite close with the prince.
Dad, please don't be bewitched.
Treason doesn't only mean confiscating our property, but killing our whole clan!
His majesty rushing us to deliver the battle steeds is surely closely connected with the forces of Prince of Cheng.
As long as we get him and turn him in, it'll be a great merit and give us a chance to make amends to his majesty.
Or maybe, we can even ask for a position in the government.
I've had my man follow him.
But he... He dared to show up so openly.
Dad, stop hesitating. Where is this man?
His majesty has given out a warrant for his arrest and he still dared to appear?
He's clearly asking for his own death!
Dad, I'll go tell the magistrate now to put him behind bars.
You truly are brave. Aren't you afraid to die?
I've been prepared for my death. There's no fear in me.
However, my big brother is afraid of death. He's been trying to stop me giving medicine to Feiyun Fortress.
His identity is safe. Don't kill him. He's still useful.
Such a foolish sentimental girl.
Do you know that you'll killing your love by doing this?
Nonsense!
The emperor won't think that Feiyun Fortress failed to deliver the horses due to the plague.
When he gives the order to confiscate Feiyun Fortress, no one will be able to escape.
The emperor won't be such an imbecile.
Back then, Qingzhou Fortress wasn't able to deliver enough horses,
leading to their whole clan being beheaded. Tell me,
will he do that to Feiyun Fortress?
Have a good talk with your lover. Ask him to persuade Feiyun Fortress to join me.
Maybe, he'll get to live. Otherwise, you all die.
Round them up!
Little Sister Dansha, why are you here?
I...
It seems that Feiyun Fortress is not cooperating with us.
You're a wanted criminal. How could my Feiyun Fortress ally with you?
General Xu, he's a wanted person by his majesty related to Prince of Cheng. Take him!
Yes! Take him!
Genearl Xu, what do you mean by this?
Stinky rascal, Master personally came to Feiyun Fortress to negotiate this deal, yet you were so ignorant of the present situation.
Never thought that you have long joined up with this villain.
No wonder he dared to openly appear in our Feiyun Fortress.
And you are even enjoying salary from the government. Such an ingrate.
Don't!
Don't you want to negotiate a partnership with Feiyun Fortress? How could you do that with this attitude?
Young Fortress Master,
I know Feiyun Fortress sent someone to follow me. I didn't kill him
because I have enough power in this place.
I'm starting a battle with the emperor soon.
I will not allow even one of your steeds go to him.
Whether the Feiyun Fortress live or die, please consider it.
Lin Dansha, try to convince the Young Master.
As long as he agrees to work with me, I'll treat him well.
Just like how well I treated your Lin family.
Dansha, so you've been his ears and eyes this whole time!
- Can we leave now? - You only have half a day.
I believe you'll make the right choice.
Brother Yun, let's go.
He killed my dad, and forced me and my brother to take his poison.
We had to live an ignoble existence just to survive, to seek revenge!
He did inform my brother to secretly buy all the herbs in the capital
and leave nothing to Feiyun Fortress.
But I don't want him to take advantage of me, and that's why I secretly gave you the herbs.
Do you think I'll believe you?
Living an ignoble existence, yet you worked for the people who killed your father.
If it were me, I would kill him even if I had to die.
I was going to kill him today!
I've prepared to fight him till the end.
But I never expected that you'd show up.
I know. Whatever I say now, you won't believe me.
So I have to go kill him and show you my integrity!
- Don't go! - I don't want to be misunderstood by you! -I believe in you!
Master Yun, what's your decision?
I've discussed it with Lang all night, and decided to join you.
Feiyun Fortress may provide you with ten thousand steeds. But what do we get?
What do you want?
We men of Feiyun Fortress have grown up on the back of the horse.
We want a Feiyun Cavalry under my command. With soldiers joining from your army,
- we can establish a Cavalry Troop. - Sounds reasonable.
So you agree?
I can make you a colonel first to command a Feiyun Calvary.
Whether you can make it to a commanding general or not, it depends on what you've got.
As for Master Yun, so long as you train those horses for me,
when all is done, you'll be a first-rank official.
But I have another demand.
If you say no to it, the previous conditions are voided.
Tell me.
I want you to give the antidotes to Lin Dansha and her brother.
Indeed a couple very much in love.
Alright. As long as you safely deliver the horses to the destination, I will give them the antidote.
Okay. You better fulfill your promise. I'll take people with me now to the stables.
Good.
- Yun Qi. - Master.
- Take this letter to the Mo Manor in the capital. -Yes.
[Mo Manor]
Madam.
Madam, it's an urgent mail from Feiyun Fortress.
Little Sister, a plague hit our ranch. Though we did our best to cure the horses,
a thousand steeds were still lost.
Feiyun Fortress is not able to provide the royal army with the required number of steeds on time, which is a capital crime.
This forced us to rise in rebellion. The Mo family and Feiyun Fortress enjoy glory together,
and suffer together as well. Sell off your properties in the capital now and come to Feiyun Fortress.
I will keep you safe. Remember to do it now. Yun Qingyang.
Madam, what's wrong?
A horse plague occurred in Feiyun Fortress. Left with no choice,
they are rising in rebellion with the wanted criminal ordered to be arrested by his majesty.
Brother asked me to sell off all properties here and take the cash.
We're related to Feiyun Fortress by marriage, so if they rebel,
we will not be able to escape.
Madam, I'll immediately send someone to the south to call back Young Master.
- That's good. Go now. - Okay, I'm going.

I didn't think
that I truly am the Saintess of Biluotian.
Amazing.
That imaginary story
which is only told by storytellers
is actually related to me?
Buqi,
no one can find this place for now.
Let's put these two items here for now.
When it's time,
I'll take the ashes of my teacher and his sister
back to Biluotian
and then leave these two items in Biluotian forever.
How long are we staying here?
I don't know.
Maybe half a year,
maybe ten years,
maybe...for a lifetime.
Buqi,
do you like this place?
I do.
With the green mountains and beautiful lakes, I could stay here all my life.
Then we'll have to find something to do.
How's this?
I teach you poems every day to kill time. What do you say?
So you don't like that I know nothing about literature,
and think that I'm vulgar, is that it?
Buqi,
how come you fill your head with all this nonsense every day?
Fine.
Since you don't like it,
I'll take you to the lake and catch fish,
and go hiking to catch hares everyday. Is that okay?
Okay! You're the one who said that!
But I don't need you to take me.
It should be me who take you to catch hares, hunt animals, and pick wild vegetables.
I'm better than you in all these.
Okay.
You'll take me with you then.
Fine.
When will grandfather come?
I remember the first meal I cooked for him
was wild food from the forest.
Rest assure.
The secret guards have informed me
that he will arrive in Xuzhou soon.
Will he be in danger?
Will he be captured by men of his majesty or Dongfang Shi?
He's temporarily out of danger.
And people of the Zhu family are all safe.
That's good.
Once he's here, I'll cook him some wild cuisines as welcome.
And I'll collect some dew
to boil it for tea.
He likes this more than anything.
Grand Master Zhu likes this too?
The dew from a budding branch has light fragrance.
It'll make the best tea.
Buqi,
it's morning now.
What do you say you take Xiao Liu
to collect some dew for me?
You like drinking such stuff too?
Fine.
I'll go collect some for you.
Young Lord Chen.
You're now stronger.
Careful...
Xiao Liu.
Those richmen and lords
always say that making tea with dew
smells so nice and this and that.
Do you know how a dew comes into being?
How?
I heard from the storyteller before,
that water from the sewer
and those puddles on the road,
would turn into steam and goes up to the sky.
On the way, they get blocked by these tall trees.
Think about it. How dirty the sewer water is!
That's probably not true.
Found one.
Miss Zhu, are you feeling tired collecting the dew?
How about you go back to have a rest and leave it to me?
No.
I feel sorry for him. I don't want him to get diarrhea.
When I was in the Zhu Manor, I always drank the morning dew.
And nothing good happened on me.
To make tea, spring water is the best.
Morning dew... All this morning's work with this little water.
It's just wasting energy and resources to pose as a lover of culture.
Miss Zhu!
Do you dare make a bet with me?
Fine. Bet on what?
I've spilled it all! All gone!
But back to the bet.
- What is it? - How about this?
If Young Lord can guess what kind of water you used to make his tea,
you'll have to come here every morning to gather dew for him.
Deal! But if he fails to guess the answer,
you'll have to...
...go up the mountains to hunt a pheasant for me every day.
- Sure! - I'll do a beggar's chicken dish.
Deal!
Can he really guess?
Let me pick some flowers and boil them with well water.
I'll see if he notices anything different.
Two more's better.
Here you are, Young Master.
Chen Yu,
try this tea made with morning dew.
How is it?
The tea is a high grade fupin tea.
Boiling morning dew would give a refreshing aroma.
It happened to merge perfectly into this tea. Each bringing out the best of each other.
Go. Go. Go.
Go and hunt us some wild animal in the mountains.
Young Master, you...
Since you've promised Buqi that you're going to hunt wild animals, quickly go.
Go.
Yes. I'm going now.
Come back early.
It's also good if you come back late.
I knew it. Young Master will surely side with Miss Zhu.
Buqi.
Come here.
You should stop bullying Xiao Liu.
I'm not bullying him.
It's him who lost our bet.
You think I don't know?
Your tea was wrong to begin with.
How is it wrong?
With me being such a picky eater,
can you hide anything from me?
Your tea
was made from flower petals boiled in well water.
The aroma is too thick.
It's totally antagonistic with the aroma of a fupin tea.
The tea leaves quality have changed. Am I right?
Okay. Okay. I lost.
From now on, I'll wake up early
to gather dew to make you tea. Okay?
Okay already.
Actually,
I'm not that particular with teas.
You don't need to get up early to gather them.
Good. I also find drinking tea too cultured.
It's not suitable for me.
How about we drink wine?
After being together for so long, we haven't had a good drink together.
This time, let's do a
only stopping once totally drunk.
Okay. Only stopping once totally drunk.

Little lazy bug.
The sun is already high up. Still not rising from your bed?
Let me sleep a little more while.
Who told you to drink so much wine?
We agreed to stop drinking only once fully drunk and you really did it?
I'm happy.
Come.
This is the sobering soup I had Xiao Liu make. Drink a little.
Feed me.
Yes, Madam Chen.
Here.
I finally am able to live a peaceful and stable life with you.
Buqi, once I'm done handling everything,
let's live here.
I know that you're naturally active and wants to go out and play.
In the future, I'll accompany you to play.
Let's go now!
- Buqi! - Yes? - Can these flowers we picked be eaten?
Of course, they can. Found it!
- What's that? - This...
This is called gynura.
- You can eat it fresh. - Really?
♫ The moon in my hand laughs to it's heart content ♫
♫ The cloud in front of me goes to bed early ♫
You must boil it first.
- You lied to me?! - You must cook it with water first.
- Look at how I'll deal with you. - No! No! Cut it out!
- It's not yet enough. Let's go pick some more. - Okay then. I'll go pick some more.

- Buqi, look! I found it! - Okay!
Let me see!
I picked so many. This should be enough for our food, right?
Mr. Prince, they're totally different.
What's different between these flowers? Aren't they both edible?
They are vegetables, not flowers...
You look like a big spotted cat...
Let's go home. I'll cook for you. I don't want it.
You think your flowers can be eaten?
You eat the flowers, I'll eat the vegetables.
Grand Master Zhu, just make do here for the night.
We will all be on the side room protecting you. Sorry for the inconvenience.
You're being too polite. It's all thanks to you this time.
I'm already an old man. I can endure any suffering.
Thank you to all of you.
Hope you can rest early, so we can set out as early as daybreak tomorrow.
Okay. I'll go to sleep now.
You all should take shifts to rest too.
- Take him back with us. - Yes.
Guangling Gong
Official Bai, you didn't disappoint His Majesty.
Your speed in catching people is so fast.
Thank you for your praises, Your Lady Highness. I'm just doing my job.
You indeed did well.
Your Majesty, you must graciously reward Official Bai.
I'm rewarding you a thousand taels of gold.
Thank you for your rewards, Your Majesty, Your Lady Highness!
Official Bai, you must do well in serving His Majesty.
Your Majesty, Your Lady Highness, don't worry. In working for Your Majesty,
I surely will do my best even if I die.
Your Majesty, I won't disturb
you and Official Bai in your official discussion anymore.
I will take my leave.
- Get up and talk. - Yes.
Now, Master Zhu Ba has been locked up in the Celestial Prison.
If Hua Buqi is filial and Chen Yu is still alive,
they surely will come rescue him.
Set up a perfect net in the Celestial Prison.
- I want to catch them all in one go. - Yes.
Fresh flowers for the beautiful lady.
Chen Yu, your facial features are so beautiful.
If you become a woman, you surely will also be very pretty. Do you want to give it a try?
Quickly take it down. It surely look ugly. So inappropriate.
It actually looks nice. Just try it on.
Young Master!
Xiao Liu is here to pester you again.
How come you're being jealous of Xiao Liu too?
How about this? I'll go look at what he needs and then later, let's go fishing.
Sure! Tonight, I'll make you steamed fish.
Here. It's better that you wear this. Good.
Buqi, am I pretty?
I can't understand it.
- What's wrong? - Commander Han wasn't able to meet up with Grand Master Zhu.
But he found out that Grand Master Zhu was arrested by Bai Jianfei in the inn at Suizhou.
He's been escorted back to the capital. Commander Han has rushed towards there.
That Bai Jianfei... I'm going to the capital.
Should we let Miss Zhu know about this?
We mustn't. I don't want her to take risk.
- I'll find an excuse and tell her that I'll be gone for a few days. You watch her for me. - Yes.
Young Master, the secret guards have all arrived in the capital.
The Celestial Prison is heavily guarded. We can only find out his probable location.
This battle would be very dangerous. Everyone must be careful.
Young Master, is it worth it to place yourself in such danger just for a Master Zhu Ba?
He's the closest family that Buqi has.
I promised her that I will properly settle Master Zhu Ba down. For her, I must save him.
- Go prepare. We'll act tonight. - Yes.
- It was really tiring these past days. - That 's right. Finally, our shift is over.
Let's quickly go back and rest.
That one who went out gave me ten taels of silver.
Really? So stupid.
Mr. Officer!
What is it?!
- Mr. Officer! - Why are you being noisy?
- Mr. Officer. - What is it?
Have to trouble you two. The food here
is really so hard to take in.
Can I ask you two to get me
some good food and drinks
from the famous restaurants outside?
Just put the tab on me. Once I get out,
I surely will pay you ten times.
Ten times? Can you afford it?
I'm rich! I'm rich!
- Open the door! - Yes!
- Thank you for saving me. - Master Zhu Ba, sorry to have made you suffer. My name is Chen Yu.
I know you. I've seen your portrait. We can't stay here for long.
- Let's talk outside. I really can't stay here for one more day. - Let's go.
Chen Yu, you are indeed alive.
- Protect Master Zhu Ba well. - Yes.
