I can now die in peace.
We'll be brothers again in the next life.
Thanks for sparing my life.
Thank Heaven, don't thank me.
The thunder reminded me to spare you.
We must return to the Ming Dynasty
and personally kill Wei Zhongxian.
I promise, as soon as we kill Wei Zhongxian,
you can do as you please with my life.
I spent years on the battlefield
and have killed many people without a blink.
But they were enemies of the Great Ming.
If I had to kill my own brother,
it would pain me for life.
Please don't make me kill you.
It was my fault for being indecisive.
I promise I won't be trapped in love anymore.
A woman's bosom is a man's grave.
Set a bottom line for yourself and stand firm.
I will.
You told me not to cook the sauce for that long.
Shifu, it's burning!
Why don't you take a break? Let me do it.
Don't worry, I won't shoot off my mouth.
I guarantee no one would find out you're a eunuch.
And that'll include your goddess Miss Ling.
What do you want with me?
Miss Ling doesn't know who I am.
Please don't tell her.
I won't shoot off my mouth.
I did you a favor, you must return it.
You want me to leave Dynasty?
Not just you. All three of you.
I don't want to see you at Dynasty.
I don't care how you do it.
Find an excuse and quit your jobs.
If I see any of you near Fong Wai-chi,
everyone in Hong Kong will find out,
the master chef of Fung Ming Gui is a eunuch.
Daddy said you're not feeling well.
Can't you take care of yourself?
You're on rounds during the day,
and cook for Fung Ming Gui at night.
Just tell me if you can't handle it.
Thanks for your concern.
I'm not concerned.
Don't get me in trouble when you can't do your job.
Heen, your Shifu is a wimp.
Fung Ming Gui is counting on you.
I'm trying. Get out of my way.
Don't go inside the kitchen.
I'll swap your schedule.
Go home and get some rest.
Take care, Miss Ling. I have to go.
Bo! I'm so glad to see you.
I'm upset and I feel lonely.
I need someone to talk to.
We're in the same miserable state.
I have mixed feelings about all this.
I meat to talk to you at Fung Ming Gui.
Let's drink 300 glasses tonight
and try to forget our troubles.
Can we really forget?
Then let's not stop at 300 glasses.
I'll drink 3,000 or 30,000 if it works.
I didn't know you have trouble with love.
What is love?
It's not something ordinary folks like us can figure out.
Life is about love,
regret has nothing to do with the situation.
Don't sing a new song when we part,
because it can be truly heart breaking.
Love is like a dream,
everything is gone when you wake up.
Nice poem. It describes exactly how I feel.
Maybe I'm a fool for love,
that's why I have been made fun of.
Guangdou and I truly love each other.
That was our destiny 400 years ago.
Yuan Chonghuan has no right to interfere.
A 400-year-old man can be rather stubborn.
And you have truly gone overboard,
by telling the media Bo is your boyfriend.
You're not giving them a choice.
That's exactly what I'm doing.
I want to put him on the spot.
If I have not gone this far,
Guangdou would never face up to his own feelings
and Yuan Chonghuan would not compromise.
That's exactly what I'm worried about.
If you corner him,
who knows what he's capable of in the name of loyalty?
I'm the Crown Princess, I'm his boss.
What can he do to me?
Come in!
You sent for him?
What's the point of going behind each other's back?
It's best we settle this face to face.
Tai-Kwan, want something to drink?
Where are your manners? Don't know how to greet the Crown Princess?
Greetings, Your Highness!
I know what you're thinking.
You think I seduced your brother, ruined his reputation
and lured him into a love triangle.
If you knew, why did you do it?
It's not fair to him.
Only because you're in our way.
This is the 21st century.
There's such a thing as free love.
Don't throw feudal ethics in my face.
This is not the Ming Dynasty.
Nobody cares Zuo Guangdou is my courtier.
I do!
If you insist on being together,
he's guilty as a rebel
and you're an adulteress.
Both crimes are punishable by decapitation.
My head is right here. Come and get it.
Your Highness, I implore you,
Heaven is watching you.
How dare you speak to me in that tone!
Look, I invited you here
so you can work things out.
Now you're both ready to pop a vein, what's the point?
Sandy, free love is OK,
but let time take is course.
Tai-Kwan, you're not much better.
Stop measuring everyone with standards from 400 years ago.
Look, Sandy is a good catch.
Maybe after a while,
she'll think Bo is not good enough for her and dumps him.
Then Bo can't get anywhere near her.
Hey!
If the Crown Princess and Bo have a relationship,
I must execute the adulterer for the Crown Prince.
Even if he's closest to me, I won't go easy on him.
You're threatening me with Zuo Guangdou's life?
No, Bo is his brother.
He won't kill his brother.
I will, for the legitimacy of the Ming court
Don't make me do anything against my will.
That's all I have to say. I'll take my leave now.
Did you see that? Such audacity!
The more he wants to stop me,
the more I will tell the media.
I'll tell everyone and their dog!
Right!
Tai-Kwan! Wan Tai-Kwan! Hey...
I was just trying to make peace.
Don't tell me you're mad at me.
I know you mean well.
But the Crown Princess is too headstrong.
As a Commander, it's my duty to put a stop to this.
How? She's the Crown Princess.
Will you really kill Bo?
That's an option.
Are you crazy?
This is 2017.
You'll go to jail for murder.
Has it crossed your mind,
since you can't go back to the Ming Dynasty,
there's nothing you need to answer to.
There's a way here, there'll be a way back.
Even if you were right,
even if we're stuck here,
we're still from the Ming Dynasty
and I will go by the book and show no mercy.
If you wish to enforce the Ming law in 2017,
I can't stop you.
Kill anyone you want. It's none of my business.
Miss Chi, are you alright?
Remember what you said?
Remember your vow?
Jackass!
I remember.
But you were in danger, I must do something.
If the same thing happened again,
I will still use my kung fu.
Even if you call me a jackass, I don't mind.
Nothing is more important that your life.
You were born before I was.
When I was born, you were old.
You blame me for being too young.
I blame you for being too old.
You're home! Siu-Tung can't hold his liquor.
It's no fun drinking with him.
Come on... we'll drink till dawn.
Why are you torturing yourself?
Alcohol will increase your sorrow, not reduce it.
How hard is it to forget a woman?
I just can't.
Even though I must.
There are other women out there.
I can't believe Xiao Qian is the only woman for me.
When I get back to the Ming Dynasty,
I'll have 3 concubines... no, make that 10.
Wait! Let me get you a hot towel.
To Brother Chonghuan and Brother Guangdou,
forgive me, I can't be your brother anymore
or go back and assist the Crown Prince.
These are the last words of Xiao Li.
Oh my God!
What is it?
Look! It says "last words"!
Where is Siu-Tung?
I was so drunk,
I didn't know when you came home or when he went out.
Get up, Siu-Tung!
What is troubling you?
Why do you want to kill yourself?
I'm so useless. I wanted to hang myself from a beam.
But modern flats don't have a beam to hang from.
And I'm such a wimp I couldn't even steady myself.
You were fine when we were drinking.
What happened that made you want to kill yourself?
Tell us, we'll help you.
What happened?
You can level with us, we'll help you.
Cheuk Wah came to Fung Ming Gui today.
He found out we were from the Ming Dynasty.
He threatened me.
If we don't leave Miss Chi,
he'll make public our true identities
and everyone will treat us like freaks.
He just said we're from the Ming Dynasty.
He didn't say we're aliens.
There's no way to prove it.
No one would believe that scumbag.
I'm different from you.
I'm a eunuch.
My handicap will be solid proof.
I'll bring you trouble if I'm alive.
Brother Tai-Kwan, please kill me...
I forbid you to say that.
Get up! If I'm not mistaken,
the scumbag wants to kick Miss Chi out of Dynasty.
That's why he must get rid of her right-hand men.
Looks like he has the dirt on us.
Traitors don't faze me and I won't back down.
I'm not afraid of him.
Siu-Tung, just ignore him.
I'll take care of this for you.
He wants us to go? We're staying.
He wants to stir up trouble?
I'll chop him to pieces.
What's wrong? You look flushed.
Are you ill? You have a fever?
I'll get you some pills.
I'm fine, thanks for your concern.
Bo said he needed my help.
I asked Master Tin for the day off and came over.
Bo knew you're not feeling well.
Why did he give you the runaround?
Don't work so late. Go get some rest.
I'll tell Heen to help out at Fung Ming Gui.
About what happened last night, I want to...
Wait! Your lips are chapped.
Here... I don't like men with chapped lips.
Take this and don't forget to use it.
Miss Ling, about...
I have a meeting. I can't talk.
Remember to put it on.
Miss Chi! Bo! What's so urgent?
Did the scumbag make a move?
It's not the scumbag. Sit down.
I needed to talk to you.
Miss Chi, why don't you tell him?
What is it?
Your Crown Princess put Bo on the spot
and told the media they were dating.
I know. The Crown Princess has gone too far.
Bo came to me for help this morning.
I also don't want Tai-Kwan and Bo to fall out over this.
We came up with a solution.
Bo will announce his real other half
and people won't believe Sandy anymore.
Sandy won't be able to use this to threaten Bo.
That's brilliant!
But where are we going to find someone to pose as Bo's other half
and pull off this charade?
You intend to do this yourself?
No! It'll damage your reputation.
How can we face Master Tin?
Relax! I can't do it.
Siu-Tung, I hope you can help me
and pretend to be my other half.
So we can fool the media and the Crown Princess.
I can't!
Not that I won't help you,
but to pretend we're lovers
is completely against nature.
I'm unable to convince myself.
Just this once, please?
If the Crown Princess won't leave me alone,
someday it'll piss off Tai-Kwan
and he'll turn me into a flying lantern.
Siu-Tung, we had this all figured out.
You're the best choice for the part.
If Bo rejects Sandy because he's in love with a man,
he can let her off easy.
You have the appearance to make this charade seem convincing.
You're the best candidate for this part.
Hello, I'm Fung Yat-Bo.
About the recent allegation by Miss Wong Yi-San
saying we're boyfriend-girlfriend,
I feel... sorry, let's start again.
Hello, I'm Fung Yat-Bo.
About the recent allegation by Miss Wong Yi-San
saying we're boyfriend-girlfriend,
I'm truly sorry...
Miss Wong is a good friend,
but I already have a better half.
And he's Mr. Li Siu-Tung.
I don't want to hurt Siu-Tung
therefore I must clarify my relationship with Miss Wong.
Siu-Tung, did you want to say something?
Hello, Bo and I have been together for quite some time.
But due to the stigma attached to such a relationship,
we chose not to publicize it.
But as the recent event unfolds,
we should set the record straight.
I love Bo.
And Bo loves you.
We hereby announce...
I, Fung Yat-Bo
and Li Siu-Tung...
...are officially out of the closet.
OK!
Hello? I see... thank you!
No need to upload this.
Wong Yi-san's manager just issued a press release
that says you two have broken up already.
(Miss Chi)
Do you know where's your Brother Tai-Kwan?
He went out this morning.
Let me call him for you.
Don't bother. I called him several times.
Now the phone is off.
When I last spoke to him,
he said he'll need to use force to sort out your trouble.
He went to see Cheuk Wah?
What about Cheuk Wah?
He went to Fung Ming Gui and threatened Siu-Tung.
If he fails to persuade us to leave Dynasty,
he'll make it known Siu-Tung is a eunuch.
What is he going to do to Cheuk Wah?
Oh no!
Remember the 13 officers within the Chief Military Commission
who secretly sold titles for profit?
Of course! His Majesty appointed Brother Tai-Kwan to investigate the incident,
he executed them without bothering
To conduct an investigation.
He openly announced at the execution ground,
"to end trouble, one must kill
the trouble makers".
Is that what he'll do to Cheuk Wah?
Li Siu-Tung came to the office?
Do you know why?
Keep an eye on those three.
I want to know what they said, and who have they seen.
What do you want, Wan Tai-Kwan?
I came to see you.
Remember what I told you before?
No monkey business behind Miss Chis back.
You obviously chose to ignore me.
You are determined to remove us,
so Miss Chi will be all alone in Dynasty.
I won't let you get away with it.
You know who and what you are.
Either you leave Dynasty at once,
or I'll make public your identities.
People may think Yuan Chonghuan and Zuo Guangdou are lunatics.
But the young eunuch will be in much bigger trouble.
We have no quarrels with you.
Why won't you leave us alone?
Your precious Miss Chi took my seat.
You're my enemy if you side with her.
If I don't have your resignations tomorrow,
I will call a press conference.
Everyone in Hong Kong will know Dynasty hired three ancients.
I won't let that happen.
We pledged our allegiance to Miss Chi.
If you promise to keep our secret.
I guarantee when Master Chu gets out of jail after 3 years,
we will leave Dynasty
and stay out of your power struggle.
3 years? 3 days is already too long.
Why must you help the Chus?
I should be the Chairman of Dynasty.
Master Chu started the Dynasty Group.
If you try to steal it from him,
you're no different from an usurper.
The difference is, I built his empire.
He put me through school and made me the CEO,
because his whole family are losers.
They need me to watch the company.
Without me, Dynasty would only own 7 restaurants, not 34.
Without me, there'll be no IPO.
They counted on luck the first half of their lives.
Now they should count on me for the rest.
Nonsense!
One's life is predestined.
If you're born to follow your master
you must serve him well.
You're unworthy of the Chairman position.
Even if you usurp the title, it won't last.
Spare me your nonsense.
After I get rid of you, Fong Wai-chi is next.
And Fung Ming Gui will be last.
You're hopelessly stubborn and greedy.
You reap what you sow, you'll lose everything in the end.
I'll say this for the last time.
Stop causing trouble for 3 years.
After that, we will disappear.
You can do as you please and we won't interfere.
Says who? You?
Alright... I'll give you 3 years.
Hello, 999 Police reporting center.
This is Cheuk Wah, the CEO of the Dynasty Group.
Wan Tai-Kwan wants to kill me.
What happened, sir? Hello?
Wan Tai-Kwan, why didn't you pick up?
Remember what you promised me?
If you deal with Cheuk Wah with force, you're a genuine jackass.
Miss Fong, the Police is here.
Miss Fong, we're from the Kowloon West Police Station.
Candy, you may go.
Have a seat.
What can I do for you?
Miss Fong, your CEO Mr. Cheuk Wah called 999
and told us Wan Tai-Kwan wanted to kill him.
Is it a prank call?
We don't think so.
We have tried to contact them both.
But neither phone can be reached.
Have you seen either of them in the office?
Cheuk Wah is the CEO,
his hours are flexible.
Wan Tai-Kwan is our Director of Security.
Yesterday, he verbally asked me for the day off today.
He said he needed to pick up a relative from China.
Perhaps the phone battery died,
that's why you're unable to reach him.
He's normally not a careless person.
Miss Chi, Master Tin just called me,
he found Brother Tai-Kwan passed out outside Fung Ming Gui.
Really? I'm talking to two Police officers.
I won't sit in on the meeting.
Do as you see fit, OK? Bye!
Fung Ming Gui on Luen Fat Street.
Hurry up!
He's still breathing.
Let's call an ambulance and take him to the hospital.
If he should die in here, we'd be in trouble
Hung, call 999.
Wait! Let's wait for Bo and Siu-Tung.
Tai-Kwan knows kung fu. He should be OK.
Whatever you say. We can't open today.
I'll go post a sign on the front door.
Go...
Tai-Kwan...
The Observatory predicts tonight's total lunar eclipse to take place at 7:30 pm.
This one will be different from before...
Your cart started a run on my vest.
It's much shorter now. What do you say?
Get in here!
It's improper for man and woman to touch.
This is not real snow.
But this is the best I can do for you.
He's smiling.
You're right!
Tai-Kwan...
Why am I here?
Hello, 999? I saw a car stranded on the hillside.
Someone inside looks injured.
Cheung Sir? Yes!
What's going on?
Fung Yat-Bo just went upstairs.
We asked around, Wan Tai-Kwan was a waiter at Fung Ming Gui.
Someone saw him go out this morning.
We found Cheuk Wah.
He drove off the road in his car.
He accused of Wan Tai-Kwan of murder.
The suspect is probably inside Fung Ming Gui.
You must all be very careful.
Yes, Sir!
What have you done?
We can't open for business today.
Why did you pass out outside?
And why won't you let us take Tai-Kwan to the hospital?
And you...
You're on sick leave.
Why did you come back with Bo?
Say something, OK?
If nothing is going on,
Chi won't tell us to kill the lights
and pretend no one is here.
What trouble did you get yourselves into?
You can tell us. We'll help you.
Tai-Kwan, you know kung fu,
why were you passed out on the street?
You should tell us.
Long story. I don't know where to begin.
Just tell us what happened.
You act like you killed someone.
Bo, tell us.
That's exactly what I'm afraid of.
Brother Tai-Kwan, did you kill Cheuk Wah?
What?
Cheuk Wah probably deserved it.
But you must pay for killing him.
Why were you so reckless?
Cheuk Wah probably deserved it.
But you must pay for killing him.
Why were you so reckless?
If you went to jail,
what would happen to us?
What nonsense are you talking about?
Who told you I killed that scumbag?
See? I knew something like this would happen
Even if you can fight, you still have to go to jail.
I knew there's trouble when we found you passed out outside.
Turn yourself in.
Just scare off the scumbag, you didn't have to kill him.
I never lie.
And I'm telling you I didn't kill anyone.
As much as that scumbag deserves it,
I spared his miserable life in the end.
Then why did you pass out outside?
He used a concealed weapon on me.
I felt like I've been hit by lightning.
I was in a daze and somehow stumbled back to Fung Ming Gui.
You think I'd lie to you?
Good! I'm relieved to hear that.
If you didn't kill the scumbag,
why did the cops come to see Miss Chi?
They said the scumbag disappeared.
Where the hell is he?
Maybe it's just a misunderstanding.
Let's call Miss Chi now
so she won't get the wrong idea.
If Tai-Kwan said he didn't do it,
we have no reason not to believe him.
Since we won't open for business,
might as well talk to Chi.
Thank you for your trust, Master Tm.
Let's go now.
Good!
I'll take full responsibility for this.
I started this. I'll explain to the Police.
Go back upstairs. No matter what happens,
don't come down.
I'll go with you.
Me too.
You don't know kung fu.
If things go sour, I may not be able to protect you.
Go upstairs! You disobey me?
Come on...
Let's go up...
Wan Tai-Kwan, you're under arrest.
You're suspected of assault.
Raise your hands, turn around.
Officer, it's just a slight misunderstanding.
Cheuk Wah and I had a row,
but I let him go in the end.
I didn't kill him.
I don't know why he has disappeared.
Don't bother to explain.
You need to come in to make a statement.
I have nothing to hide.
There's no need to go with you.
With Heaven as my witness,
I might have threatened Cheuk Wah
but I caused him no harm.
If I'm lying, let thunder strike me down.
Is that good enough, officer?
Yeah... Wan Tai-Kwan, you're under arrest.
Assaulting a Police officer is a serious crime, you better let go!
You started it.
This is a trumped up charge.
Don't think you can bully me!
I will not go with you to the Police station
Wan Tai-Kwan!
Miss, don't go over there. It's dangerous.
Madam, he's my friend. Let me talk to him.
Wan Tai-Kwan, don't do anything stupid...
Let go of her!
How dare you offend Miss Chi...
Immeasurable Ocean...
Tai-Kwan...
Hello?
Tai-Kwan, are you OK?
Where are you?
I'm fine.
The cops are looking for you.
I know you didn't kill Cheuk Wah.
I'll wait for you in the park where you practice your sword.
Yes, Miss Chi!
Sir, stay where you are!
The gentleman in black, stop!
Officers!
What is it?
Someone passed out over there.
Let's go take a look.
Tai-Kwan!
Miss Chi, I'm hiding inside a hotel.
I'll wait for you by the pool on the 3/F.
Tai-Kwan, where are you?
Miss Chi!
Tai-Kwan...
Year 31 of the Wanli Era,
it has been 2 years since the Crown Princess' disappearance.
Without the help from Yuan Chonghuan and Zuo Guangdou,
the Crown Prince gave up the will to oppose Zhang Cheng.
He indulged himself in wine and women,
allowing Zhang Cheng to become more domineering and arrogant.
Director Zhang!
What brings you to Ciqing Palace?
Your Highness, what took you so long to approve
the memorial requesting additional budget for the Eastern Depot?
Be patient, Director Zhang.
I'll do that during the morning assembly.
Nonsense! The additional budget is of the utmost importance,
don't waste my time.
I want it approved before 3 o'clock today,
and pass to the Ministry of Revenue.
I will not tolerate any delays. Loser!
How dare you!
Don't be angry, Your Highness!
Commander Yuan?
Miss Fong, are you sure you saw Wan Tai-Kwan fell into the pool and disappeared?
I saw him with my own eyes.
He fell in and never came back up.
But there's nothing in the pool.
My colleagues have searched everywhere.
Are you sure?
Positive! Can you look again?
Chi, what's going on?
You made no sense on the phone.
You said Tai-Kwan fell into the water and disappeared.
He didn't come up?
Where is he now?
Is he alright?
I came up here and saw Tai-Kwan fell into the pool.
He disappeared and never came back up.
Brother Tai-Kwan...
Bo!
Hey! You can't go in.
They're back.
Are you alright, Sis?
You made no sense on the phone.
We're very worried.
Well? Tai-Kwan started a war downstairs with the cops.
Where is he now?
The cops took our statements.
They said Tai-Kwan was shot. Is that true?
Say something! We waited all night for you.
Was Tai-Kwan arrested or shot to death?
Stop guessing. Tai-Kwan is fine.
Chi, you must be tired.
Go get some sleep.
Go to sleep early.
This is Wan Tai-Kwan.
Leave a message if you need me.
I will call you back.
Wan Tai-Kwan, where the hell are you?
Listen... if I don't see you at work tomorrow
I will fire you for absenteeism.
You better be there!
