[ I Will Never Let You Go ]
[ Episode 36 ]
Hua Buqi!
Who are you calling?
My name is Liu Qingwu. What is your name?
My name is Zhu Zhu.
The first Zhu means the scarlet red color of lips.
The second Zhu pertains to the round and glossy pearls.
What do you think? Don't I have a nice name?
Miss Liu,
it seems that you are quite close to that Young Lord Zhangqing.
Could you tell me how you two know each other?
Actually, Zhangqing and I had a bad start.
Until that one time, when I got shot in the chest for him.
We rolled into a cave. He treated my wound.
He gently tore up my dress.
That time, we...
You are saying that
Young Lord Zhangqing has seen and touched your body?
So he will be responsible to you?
Even though he doesn't say it,
I know that he wouldn't leave me alone.
I lived in his manor for a long time.
He was very caring towards me every day.
Everyone in the manor knew that we are a couple.
When is he going to marry you?
He is currently busy with official things and have no time for it.
I'm guessing that after he is done with his current endeavors,
he would marry me.
Busy with official work?
It looks like Young Lord Zhangqing's identity is not just ordinary.
I wonder what is Miss Liu's background?
Are you worthy to marry Young Lord Zhangqing?
I am the villa master of Mingyue Villa.
Tell me then, am I worthy?
Isn't the villa master of Mingyue Villa Liu Mingyue?
So you know about Mingyue Villa.
But your information is outdated.
The authority is currently looking for Liu Mingyue after she tried to kill Zhangqing.
With Zhangqing's help,
I am already the master of Mingyue Villa.
He helped you to be the master of the villa?
Indeed.
He's really very capable.
He was able to help you be the master of the villa.
Zhangqing, you are so good.
You can make a beauty like that be so faithful to you.
How many times have I told you? She is just a friend!
Really? It seems that she doesn't feel that way.
I can't control how she thinks,
but she and I are not possible.
It looks like your heart belongs to someone already.
Zhangqing,
you know Zhu brat since a long time ago, don't you?
Miss Zhu and I just met less than a day ago,
but it feels like we've known each other for a long time.
You are still lying.
I initially thought Zhu brat is only good to you because she wants to push me away.
But Miss Qingwu showed up.
I realized that Zhu brat was really jealous.
It shows that this is not the first day she have met you.
Hence, you and Zhu brat couldn't have known each other for a day.
Zhu brat likes the Lotus Robe Knight.
Your fighting skill is as good as mine. Also, you call yourself a knight.
I think you are the Lotus Robe Knight.
Young Lord Dongfang, you are really complimenting me too much.
I also want to be the famous Lotus Robe Knight.
Unfortunately, my fighting skill isn't that good.
I heard that the Lotus Robe Knight can shoot 10 arrows at a time.
I don't think that's possible for me this life time.
It's okay if you don't want to admit to it.
I didn't expect you to admit to it this soon anyways.
But you like Zhu brat, so I can't have you alive.
Young Lord Dongfang,
even if you kill all of your enemies,
you can't win a woman's heart.
I hate going through troubles.
I don't like tons of troubles circling around Zhu brat.
She will be mine eventually anyways. About her heart,
as long as I'm the only person who is good to her,
I don't think she will stay this cold.
She will fall in love with me one day.
What are you guys talking about?
We were talking about Zhangqing and this beauty, of course.
Zhangqing is so lucky with women. I heard that there are another 15
beautiful women like her in Xichu Province.
Young Lord Dongfang, you are still young, but your ears aren't that good,
so is your memory. When did I ever say such a thing?
Young Lord Dongfang, Zhangqing is the person who has most morals
and can resist temptation the most.
Why do you have to say such slander about him again and again?
His mouth
would not be comfortable without insulting anyone.
I'm so sorry, my wife. I said the wrong thing.
It's not another 15. Just another 10.
It's getting late. If we don't leave now, the sun will come up.
-Let's go. -Let's go. Let's go.
What's wrong?
I've been in pain for the past couple of days.
When I was washing myself by the lake,
I saw that my wound has gotten infected.
Also, I don't feel quite right. I can't barely lift up my feet.
I'm afraid that I can't ride anymore.
Miss Zhu, it's not appropriate for an unmarried man and woman to be too intimate.
Are you willing to share a horse with Qingwu?
Sure.
Sit tight, Miss Liu.
-What's with you again? -I...
Miss Liu,
why did you fell off the horse for no reason?
It was clearly you who caused me to fall from the horse!
I pushed you?
Or else with me being injured,
I still fell off the horse by myself so I can be more hurt?
You fell yourself! I would be an asshole if I pushed you.
What are you laughing at?
Forget it.
Share a horse with me. We will arrive at a hotel within an hour.
Go back to your place as soon as you have recovered.
Dongfang Shi, aren't you a medical sage?
Why don't you go check on her right now?
Maybe she can start walking immediately.
Do you only think of me in this situation?
Don't tell me that you are not confident about treating Miss Liu's wound.
How could I not?
It's just that her wound has been delayed to be treated for many days.
I am afraid that the poison has been flowing all through her veins. I don't have any herbs with me.
Everyone, let's keep going!
Maybe once we get to the next hotel, they will have some medicines.
Then I will be able to treat Miss Liu.
Zhu brat, aren't you afraid that Zhangqing would get too busy?
Can't I have a heatstroke?
I can't ride the horse anymore too.
Heatstroke?
Have some water.
You didn't wash your water bottle well. It smells like mud.
How could it?
Have some water, Miss Zhu.
How is it? Do you feel better?
As long as you are feeling better. Share a horse with me since you are having a heatstroke.
No way!
- Let's go! - Hey!
Zhangqing, Miss Zhu really looks like Hua Buqi.
Do you like her?
Yes, I like her.
But I'm not giving up.
What are you trying to do?
Miss Zhu, you care about Zhangqing so much, so he must be the Lotus Robe Knight.
[Lingxuan Hotel]
Customers, please come in.
Are you here to eat or do you need rooms?
Get 4 rooms ready.
Okay.
Why is it empty?
Don't tell me it's a gangster inn.
The storytellers say that there are many gangster inns in the desert.
The last two hotels I stayed in were also gangster inns.
You are joking, customer.
We are only 10 km away from Xichu.
We can't dare to open any gangster inn.
It's just that we heard that Xichu is currently exterminating bandits.
They are afraid that the bandit's spies will spread the information out,
so people can only go in, but not out.
That's why our business has gone bad.
Then let's have 3 rooms.
Zhu brat is afraid.
I will share a room with you to protect you.
You want to share a room with me? Unless you become a woman.
But you can't become a woman in this life.
At most, you can be a eunuch.
So you like to insult people when you are in a bad mood, Zhu brat.
- 4 rooms! - Okay.
Also, have someone to bring us your first-aid medicines.
We have an injured lady here.
Okay. Please follow me.
Customers, that's all the medicines we have.
You may leave now.
Okay.
These medicines can work.
Don't worry.
You are so loving and faithful.
Coming to find Zhangqing with your injured legs.
The desert environment is very harsh.
You might get infected with all kinds of germs and die due to complications.
Miss Liu, do you know that?
I know a bit about medicine. I know.
Such a infatuated lady.
Dongfang Shi, what's with your nonsense when treating a patient? Can you treat her or not?
I can. But I have to formulate the medicine first.
What are you two doing here?
You can leave if you don't have any business here.
So I don't get distracted while treating her and formulating the medicine.
Aren't you afraid that I will run away?
You wouldn't.
As long as Miss Liu is here, Zhangqing wouldn't run away.
If Zhangqing is not leaving, will you leave?
If I don't see you two after treating her,
I can't promise what I would do to her.
Don't worry. I will be in the hotel.
Please treat her well, Young Lord Dongfang.
Don't you worry.
There isn't any illness in this world that I can't cure.
Good thing you two know what's good for you.
- Waiter! - Yes.
Guard this door. If anyone comes out,
just shout. You can tell them that I asked for you to be here.
You can ask him what he needs.
Okay.
Let go of me!
What's with you and Liu Qingwu?
What's the reason that made the Commandery Prince of Dongping
to be so caring and gentle to her in every possible way?
Don't hold me before explaining yourself.
Buqi, I've been wanting to hold you like this.
I'm getting mad in thinking about it.
Don't change the topic.
You know that I got secret orders from the emperor before I came here.
He asked me to find out about Biluotian.
Biluotian has a lot to do with Mingyue Villa.
Liu Qingwu was a good opening to explore, so I had to work with her.
You are just working with her?
Then why does she has such intimate attitude towards you?
It's really just work.
I just didn't expect her to have feelings for me.
She was even willing to lose an arm just to save me.
She got herself injured badly because of me, so I can't just leave her like that.
So you start to have feelings for her?
Buqi.
Trust me. I didn't.
You didn't?
You must've missed out lots of details.
What about after Liu Qingwu got hurt?
Did you guys rolled into a cave,
looked and touched her body?
It was an emergency. I had to treat her wound.
Why did you have to help her?
Why didn't you just let her die?
Didn't you know that she killed my Uncle Jiu?
You knew how much I hated her.
And you still decided to work with her.
When I heard her sweetly calling you Zhangqing,
I really wanted to kill her.
Buqi,
it was really one-sided. I don't have feelings for her.
Good. Then stop talking to her. Take me away now.
Dongfang Shi doesn't know who you are yet. He can't find you for now.
I can't.
She is badly hurt right now.
I can't just leave her along in the hotel.
You still can't bear to leave her.
It's not what you think.
She is from Mingyue Villa.
Aren't you afraid that she saved you and got hurt
just for show?
She is Liu Mingyue's spy. Can't you see that?
If I didn't save her in the cave, she would've died then.
How could it be just for show?
What really happened between you and her?
Why do you believe her so much?
Many things have happened.
Actually,
when she killed your Uncle Jiu,
she was only obeying orders.
Your real enemy is Liu Mingyue.
Say that again.
I'm going to kill her right now.
Buqi.
Why didn't you avoid it?
With your skills, it should be easy for you to avoid it.
When it's you, I can't get away.
Buqi,
after I settled the Biluotian matters,
let's go live in the woods.
Let's become a couple that have a leisure and carefree life.
Let's not care about the secular world anymore. How does it sound?
Who wants to live with you in the woods? I still owe people money.
I can help you.
we will have sons and daughters. Every day when I come home,
all of you will be waiting for me by the door.
With sons and the daughters, we won't be as leisure and carefree anymore.
They will annoy you every day.
How do you know?
I've also thought about...
I never thought about it.
Young Lord Dongfang.
No need for you here. Leave us.
Is Qingwu okay?
Zhangqing, where is Zhu brat?
Miss Zhu is resting in her room.
I'm worrying about Qingwu, so I'm here to check on her.
Miss Liu is not doing well.
She has many infections on her. Even though I'm able to control them,
but I don't know when are they going to flare up.
Tonight,
I'm afraid that someone has to watch her.
As long as she survives tonight, she will fully recover.
It seems that I have to be the only person watching her.
If you have any question, call me anytime.
Dongfang Shi must be deliberately asking Chen Yu to watch Liu Qingwu throughout the night in her room
so he can upset me.
What are they doing right now?
If Liu Qingwu seduces Chen Yu at night,
will Chen Yu be able to resist?
No!
If I go over there now...
No!
If Chen Yu can resist the temptation and I go there now,
it will make me seem petty and not trusting.
If he is being intimate with Liu Qingwu,
I will be so angry that I might die.
I should stop thinking!
I'm going to bed.
Miss Liu, I've treated your wounds. How are you going to repay me?
I want to know about the girl you mentioned who looks a lot like Zhu brat.
What happened between her and Zhangqing?
I'm not sure who you are. Also, I can feel that
you are hostile towards Zhangqing,
so I can't tell you.
You are such a loyal dog.
Nevermind. It will upset me anyways.
But,
what you want is Zhangqing and I want Zhu brat.
Don't you think we should work together?
What's going on? Are you okay?
I will go get Dongfang.
[Lingxuan Hotel]
Zhu brat, you are up so early.
What are you doing here?
Are you worrying about Miss Liu or Zhangqing?
If you are worrying, just go take a look.
Who's worrying?
I am in a hurry and they wouldn't come out of the room.
How about this? I was just about to check on Miss Liu.
Why not come with me?
Come on.
Zhangqing, how is Miss Liu?
Thank you, Young Lord Dongfang, for saving my life.
Zhangqing was with me the whole night.
He just fell asleep. Could you leave us for a while?
Let's not bother him.
Zhu brat!
Are you hurt?
He is the Lotus Robe Knight, right?
I don't know what you are talking about.
This Zhangqing is up to no good. He is not loyal and he is sneaky.
How could he be the Lotus Robe Knight?
You are so fast at changing your attitude. He was a knight to you yesterday,
and now he is sneaky?
Isn't he?
Okay. Okay.
What you said are all right? Don't cry.
I'm thirsty.
Xichu probably is not far from here.
I can take you over there.
Zhu brat! Zhu brat!
My time didn't go to waste.
This girl slipped drug in your water a long time ago.
I knew something is going to happen to you guys.
Such an adorable girl.
If I send her to our leader,
he will definitely love it!
I will go get Dongfang for you.
Zhangqing, what happened?
Do you remember what happened last night?
Last night?
It must be when Dongfang Shi treated, he tampered with your bed.
You should get dressed.
Waiter.
-My Lord. -Where did the other two people go?
The customer who stayed in this room
ran out looking upset this morning.
The young lord who came with you guys ran after her.
How long was she gone?
Around half a day.
Thanks.
Thank you, My Lord.
You spread the powder, didn't you?
Yes, I admit to it.
But everything I did was all because
that I love you too much.
Our collaboration ends here.
Go back to Xichu right now.
I will forget about this.
Zhu Zhu is Hua Buqi, right?
You can't fall in love with her. You are brother and sister.
Everyone in the capital knows what happened in the funeral at the Mo Manor.
If you are together, aren't you afraid that people are going to laugh at you?
She is not my father's daughter.
So, we are not related.
Zhangqing!
That's impossible. You must be lying to me.
Zhu brat...
Where is Zhu brat?!
I was about to ask you. You made her misunderstood me.
And why didn't you protect her well?!
It wasn't me!
They dared to use a sedative and took away a woman and money.
If it wasn't the hotel last night, then it must be the bandits.
I've already investigated the hotel! It's not them!
Then it must be the bandits!
How dare they mess with me?
How are you going to search?
There must be spies in the desert.
Let's catch one or two of them to lead the way.
If they refuse, kill them.
If we don't succeed the first time, we will try again and then again.
I don't believe that none of the bandits are afraid of death!
Get on the horse! Saving Miss Zhu is our priority!
Master, everyone in Xichu knows about Liu Qingwu
is with the the Commandery Prince of Dongping now.
Also, people who used to work for you are working for her now.
I think we should just send some people to secretly kill her.
You think Mingyue Villa is so easy to get into?
If that is so,
Liu Qingwu won't still be alive.
What do we do then? We can't just see her swallow the Mingyue Villa bit by bit.
What's the hurry?
Once Qingyan recovers, I will send her back to pretend to be Liu Qingwu.
By then, those traitors in Mingyue Villa can't tell who is the real ones anyways.
And Qingyan is going to get rid of the people around Qingwu to weaker her,
so she can kill her at one strike.
Master, that's such a good plan.
It's just that Qingyan's injuries are recovering slower than I thought.
Let me go take a look.
Yes.
Leader, I brought back a beauty for you! You have to enjoy...
M-master.
Bullshit!
What did I tell you to go do?
I asked you to leak information and watch for merchant troupes. But what did you do?
You captured a girl for me!
Am I a pervert to you? Get lost!
I'm sorry, leader. I'm leaving right now.
Enough!
Stop acting in front of me.
Do I not know what type of person you guys are?
Every man is a pervert.
Don't be too exhausted and ruin my big plan.
Or else, I'll take your lives.
I wouldn't dare to.
Master, walk slowly.
Leader.
You! You!
Come. Come.
Leader, look at her.
Does she suit your taste?
She's awake.
Who are you guys?
Where is this place?
This little girl is quite calm.
Most young ladies who see us...
desert bandits, will get so scared that they would pee their pants.
Bandits? You are with Big Beard Ma?
This young lady even knows our Leader's name.
You're able to see the real person today.
This person in front of you is our Leader.
The famous Big Beard Ma!
Sha Shu.
Yes.
You've done a great job with this today.
I will reward you after this!
Thanks, Leader!
Right now, go guard the entrance of the door.
Don't allow anyone to come in. Go now.
Damn, you're a tough cookie!
I like it!
Do you want one million taels of silver?!
One million taels of silver?
I am the lady of the House of Sima from the south.
If you're willing to let me go,
then I can let someone give you one million taels of silver.
Based on how you're dressed, you're at most just a maid.
You... can give me one million taels of silver?
Have you ever heard tales from the storytellers?
When a rich lady goes out, they'll usually dress up as servants like I did.
If you don't believe me, ask the person who caught me.
He definitely stripped all the money from me.
Sha Shu!
When you captured her, how much silver taels did you find on her?
There's a rule here.
I don't care about the money you made for yourself. Tell me.
There's wasn't much silver taels.
There wasn't much silver taels,
but you've definitely took those two bags of gold leaves in my bag, right?
Those are worth a lot.
Girl,
even though I was here for two years,
I know things about Jiang Nan.
I know there's a Zhu family in Jiang Nan,
and a Song family, but
I never heard about a Sima family that you're talking about.
The House of Sima specializes in gambling equipment.
We don't show our faces much,
so we're not well known.
If leader Ma don't believe me, you can ask your people to investigate.
But this one million taels of silver
can buy how many horses or do how many things?
Could it be that you can't even calculate this deal right?
Alright, I'll trust you this time.
Once I get the one million taels of silver, I promise
that you'll safely and completely be sent back.
If you dare to lie to me,
we still have another place here
called Baigu (Bones) Cave.
Inside it are all disobedient people.
Young lady, you don't want to go in right?
Don't scare me anymore. I wouldn't dare to.
Sha Shu,
take her away and keep her locked up.
Alright, let's go!
One million taels of silver?
Come.
Come over here.
You stay here and don't play any tricks.
My legs are still shaking. How could I play tricks?
It's good if you won't.
Just stay here.
Brother Sha Shu, did you kill the person that was with me?
I am only in charge of getting information.
I hide in the desert and see if there are any merchant troupe passing by.
I would catch wealthy targets like you occasionally.
I don't dare to do things like killing people.
Just stay here.
Where is he then?
He...knows martial arts.
I was afraid that he would wake up midway and I won't be able to handle him,
so I didn't bring him over.
Just stay here.
No one knows that I'm locked up here.
Will someone come and save me?
