[Episode 14]
I will never marry Peng Sanbian.
But even if I don't marry him,
I still might marry someone
who is like him in the future.
Rather than marrying a person like that,
marrying you would be my best choice.
How can you bear to destroy the happiness of an adorable and kind girl like me?
I've firmly decided to be with you. If you reject me, then you're an asshole.
Okay. What you said is very reasonable. Let's take things slow.
Then, are you taking me with you?
Xinyue, look. The train has already started moving.
Fo Ye won't let you get off of it now.
Quickly eat while it's still hot.
Wait a minute. You're not leaving anymore, right?
You don't need any money for your trip then.
If you don't need it, return that bracelet to me.
This... How could you take back things that you've already given out?!
That's too shameless.
Also, this is the love token that you've given me.
That what-is-his-name already said
that this is a treasure. Very precious.
And your buddy earlier called me "Madam."
Okay. Let's eat first.
Since we've decided to be together,
I also must reciprocate.
My surname is Yin, real name Yin Han.
Because I'm the lady of Xinyue Hotel,
hence, everyone calls me Yin Xinyue.
You can also call me Xinyue, or... wife.
That's more intimate.
Now, tell me, what's your name?
Zhang Qishan.
Zhang Qishan?
♫ The era of surviving amidst war, ♫
♫unable to avoid the rivalries ♫
♫ In this big world, everyone, let's worship together ♫
♫ Life and death are destined, you can't do anything about it ♫
♫ leaving when you still haven't done anything yet ♫
♫ You're here, I'm here, let's fight to have a future ♫
♫ Get up, get up, upsurge of burning passion ♫
♫ Adversities and prosperity have caused us to lift our head high and not be afraid ♫
♫ No matter how many conflicts there would be ♫
♫ Moving forward or retreating, won't regret it ♫
♫ In a spurt of energy, preparing to give it all in this counterattack ♫

♫ Who are we? A group of people who gets stronger as they meet someone stronger ♫

♫ Just pursue your dream ♫
[The Mystic Nine]
What's wrong?
I just suddenly remembered something. We're out for so long.
Before, Chen Pi said he's going out to buy some honeyed glutinous rice.
I don't know if he has returned home already.
[No. 1 Prison of Changsha City]
Are you saying it or not?
Stop.
At a young age, you have quite a tough mouth.
You're not talking, is that it?
You don't seem to have any plan of going out.
After Zhang Qishan arrested you, he closed his doors and won't see any guests.
Say it. What is he planning?
I don't know anything.
Don't know anything?
He and your teacher, Er Yuehong, disappeared together.
And you don't know?
Say it. What are they secretly planning?
If you say it, I can immediately release you.
Chen Pi, you're very worried about your teacher's wife, right?
I heard that her illness is getting worse.
Lies!
My teacher's wife has gotten so much better!
You're inside this prison, so how do you know if I'm saying nonsense or not?
Say it. What are they secretly planning?
If you say it, I'll immediately release you.
Bullshit! I won't betray my teacher!
Okay. You're not talking, is that it?
I fear that you won't be able to clear yourself from the crime of colluding with enemies to betray your country then.
Slander! I didn't collude with any enemies!
There's no use of quibbling with me.
The person who arrested you wasn't me.
Chen Pi, think about it well.
Don't let yourself be used and still not know about it.
Why did Zhang Qishan arrest you?
Think about it well.
I'm willing to respectfully wait until you've figured it out.
Teacher must be looking for the medicine
to save Teacher's Wife with Fo Ye.
Teacher will surely save her.
Oh, right. Teacher's Wife hasn't eaten the honeyed glutinous rice I bought.
I must go out alive.
Teacher's Wife... wait for me.
Someone's above us.
Looks like there will be trouble soon.
- Go! - Okay.
- You go to the back. - Okay.
- You two go forward with me. - Yes.
This is bad. Something must have happened.
Go and take a look then. Leave this place to me.
Okay.
Old Ba! Old Ba!
Something's not right with the train. If a fight breaks out later,
take care of yourself and Yatou. Okay?
What?!
Yo, the path is really narrow between enemies.
Let's see where you can run to now.
Just with those fancy and useless moves of yours,
you still dare to try to kill your husband?
Let go of me! You're not my husband!
Stinky brat, we're still not officially married
and you're already having an affair?
Don't rush. I'll consummate our marriage today.
Let go of me!
If you touch me here, be careful of my father killing you!
We have a marriage agreement to begin with. If I sleep with you,
your father will surely rush to marry you off to me.
Bullshit! I will never marry a person like you even if I die!
Let go of me! Let go of me!
Let go of me! Do you hear me?!
Let go of me! You beast! Help!
Help!
Let go of me! You hear me?!
Husband!
Husband, save me!
- Save me, Husband! - Move!
- Let go of me! - Stop!
Let go of her!
You even now know to call him "husband?"
Okay. Then let you're husband have some fun with you. Move!
Husband, save me!
Let go! Let go!
Let go of me, you bastard! Husband, save me!
Help...
- Don't come near me. Don't come near me! - You dare to hit me?
I'm warning you. Don't come near me!
Let go of me!
Let go of me, you beast!
Let go of me!
Let go of me! Get lost!
Get lost! Get lost!
You beast!
Get lost!
Husband, save me!
Save me!
Are you all right?
I'm fine.
You foiled my fun again.
This time, I must teach you a lesson.
I initially planned to give you a chance.
Give me a chance?
What a joke.
I stole your invitation and foiled your marriage.
Whether by reason or affection, I should be giving you a path to survive.
But if you don't know to appreciate my kind offer,
don't blame me for being merciless.
What's wrong with him?
Dead.
Fo Ye, you're here.
- What happened on your side? - Are you all right?
Everything's fine. The Japanese actually colluded with Peng Sanbian.
- How are you? - They are here for the medicines.
Where's Peng Sanbian?
The other train carriage was also full of assassins,
but it's fine now.
In just a few hours, we'll be in Changsha.
I think the Japanese won't be stupid to set up another ambush for us.
- It's fine now. Everyone can rest. - I think
that safety must be ensured.
All of you don't get anxious. Just to be sure...
Fo Ye, Fo Ye, there's no one out there. Sleep now.
Jeez, quickly sleep, sister-in-law. Sleep.
Thanks.
Zhang Fo Ye consecutively lit three sky lanterns. From then on,
the fate of Beiping's Xinyue Hotel and the Mystic Nine Families of Changsha
got tightly entangled together.
Fo Ye, you must be tired from your travel.
- Drive Er Ye and his wife back home. - Okay.
Er Ye, Madam, please.
Ba Ye,
which car are you riding?
What ride?
Both of them bringing along a partner,
is there a space for me left?
After going out, one person obtained a wife.
The other is being sweet as honey. What about me?
I was left full of wounds and even gave up the money for my casket.
You do as you please then.
Spit on you!
Who wants to ride in your cars?
I can walk back home.
Hey, your luggage!
Deliver it back to my house.
[Changsha Train Station]
[Hong Manor]
You must be very tired.
Er Ye!
- Er Ye and Madam, you two are finally back! - Are things all right here in the manor?
- Everything is fine. Quickly get inside the house. - Okay.
- What's wrong? - Madam.
It's nothing.
Er Ye!
We're home. Don't feel embarrassed. No one's looking.

♫ Open the gates of hell ♫
Salute!
Hey, you...
What are you waiting for? Let's go.
Why be so fierce?
♫ There are money to buy life ♫
♫ Whether a human or a beast, see you in the road of the netherworld ♫
♫ Make a wish in front of the Gates of Soul Return ♫
No wonder everyone is calling him Fo Ye.
So, at his house, there is this huge Buddha (Fo) statue.
Fo Ye, you're back.
What's the situation in Changsha City?
Inside the city, it was peaceful and there were no untoward events.
The Japanese didn't make any major activities.
While you weren't around, we'd tightly sealed any news from leaking out.
We announced that you were in the manor recuperating.
The superiors didn't doubt it.
But there's just one thing that's quite strange.
Lu Jianxun took Chen Pi away. He said that he's going to do a more in-depth interrogation.
Where did he take him?
They acted in a rapid and covert manner.
When I arrived, Chen Pi had been taken away.
It's just that... I still haven't found out his exact location.
That Lu Jianxun doesn't usually go against me.
But when I left, he immediately took Chen Pi away.
He surely is harboring evil intentions.
Keep watch of him closely. If there is any news, immediately update me.
Yes, Fo Ye.
Zhang Qishan! I know why everyone calls you Fo Ye now.
Because you have a huge Budda statue in your mansion;
hence, they all call you Fo Ye.
I'm smart, right?
Arrange a guest room for this lady.
I'm not going!
I just arrived here and am unfamiliar with the place and its people.
I don't know anyone.
I only know you. I'll stay in the same room as yours.
Moreover,
you are my fiancé. Is there anything wrong if I stay in your room?
Why are you still standing there? Go!
Yes.
I'll also take my leave.
Your house only has these rotten displays?
It's so far from that of my house.
Because all the good stuff of my house are now placed in yours.
Really?
Miss Yin, I hid my identity
because I was too anxious to get the medicines. I am really sorry
for destroying your marriage.
Just to compensate for my past mistakes, I've decided that in a few days,
I will apologize and explain things to your father.
Zhang Qishan! Why are you such a killjoy?
My father already said before the auction
that whoever lights the sky lantern, he's the future son-in-law of Xinyue Hotel.
You lit it three times.
The whole of Beiping now knows that you're my fiancé.
You're driving me away now?
Then, I... Isn't this too embarrassing for me?!
What about the reputation of our Xinyue Hotel?!
Peng Sanbian is already dead.
Your marriage agreement has also been dissolved.
I think that with the powerful influence of Xinyue Hotel, clearing this matter
is way better than misrepresenting the facts.
You... Just because you've obtained the medicine,
and escaped the pursuit of the Japanese, you want to kick me away, is that it?
I'm giving you three days.
After three days, I'll let someone take you back to Beiping.
You're ungrateful and unfaithful!
Move aside.
Where's my room?
Miss, this way please.
What "miss?" I'm your madam.
Why are you looking at him? Look at me.
Madam, this way please.
Madam, this is your room.
Not bad.
Is your Fo Ye usually that cold?
Our Fo Ye is usually very strict.
But he's quite nice to servants like us.
However, he treats you differently.
Huh? How different?
No one ever dared talk to him in that manner.
You're the first one.
- Really? - Yes.
Interesting.
- What's your name? - My name is Xiaokui.
- Xiaokui? - Yes.
Madam, just instruct me if you need anything from now on.
Okay. You can leave first.
Yes, Madam.
Er Ye, don't rush. Do it slowly.
[Zhang Manor]

Fo Ye, Chen Pi has been locked up in a prison at the outskirts of the city by Lu Jianxun.
The ones locked up in there are usually for execution and the location is quite remote. Hence, we only found him now.
- Where is Lu Jianxun. - Lu JIanxun received orders to do some inspection.
Organize a troop to go to the prison with me.
Yes.
That guy really has a tight mouth.
He won't confess no matter what we do.
It's fine. Once he's in here, no need to worry that he won't confess.
That's right, too.
That lad... Let me take a look.
Are you going to admit to your crime or not?!
Forget it. If you continue to hit him, you might kill him.
Didn't Sir Lu give instructions that we must keep him alive?
If you kill him, it will be hard for us to explain that.
Fine.
Hello, Fo Ye!
Put him down.
How come he's now in this state?
Fo Ye, don't worry. He won't die.
Anyone who enters our place has usually committed a grave crime.
If they don't suffer a little torture, they won't talk.
What do you want him to say?
This person is very tight-lipped. He won't confess to his crime until now.
- Looks like he also knows that colluding with the enemies to betray the country— - What colluding with the enemies to betray the country?!
I'm taking this person with me today. If anyone asks, just say that you were unable
to stop me.
No need to explain other things.
This...
Brother Qishan, I don't know what wind blew you here.
This little prison has really glittered with your presence.
I heard that some time ago, you locked your gates and refused any visits just to focus on recuperating.
I don't know if you feel better now.
A person eats so many different things. It's just normal to get sick. Thanks.
Brother Jianxun, I also suggest that you frequently rest and take good care of your body.
Don't be too focused on official work.
What you said is so wrong. I've been transferred to Changsha for quite some time already.
Although I'm not well-loved by the citizens here as compared to you,
it's still my duty to ensure the peace and safety of Changsha.
A few days ago, I heard that you'd arrested a criminal suspected of colluding with the enemies to betray the country.
I was also just eager to make some achievements.
Hence, I interrogated him first. Brother Qishan, you won't blame me. Right?
Were you able to get anything from him?
This... I haven't gotten anything yet.
You still haven't found out anything and you've already beaten him up into that state?
Are you planning to force him to confess through torture?
Brother Qishan, the crime of colluding with the enemies to betray the country is a huge crime.
I dare not slack off about it.
But my subordinates indeed were too clumsy in their work.
You two, how do you handle a case?! Go out and get your punishment.
Yes!
I've investigated this person before.
He indeed had set up a force on the docks.
I once suspected him of having private dealings with the Japanese, but I didn't find any evidence.
Hence, I arrested him to serve as a warning. I never thought that you would give this too much importance.
You personally interrogated him and even involved some crime of colluding with the enemies and betraying the country.
Harbor dealings? That simple?
You don't believe me?
Brother Qishan has always been a man of his words. I really
dare not to believe it.
Since that's the case, I'm taking him with me.
As for if he really did collude with enemies to betray the country, if he has any relations with the Japanese,
I'll tell you after my investigation.
I have to trouble you then, Brother Qishan.
Let's go!
Sir, are we just going to watch him take that man away?
Why are you panicking? Just let him take him away.
Anyway, we only want to use that person to test Zhang Qishan.
It's good that he took him away, too. It makes him look more guilty.
But that Zhang Qishan is quite concerned about Chen Pi.
It's beyond my expectation.
Also, what secret does Er Yuehong and Chen Pi have between them?
Think of a way to find it out.
Yes.
How are his injuries?
Very deep cuts and excessive bleeding caused him to become unconscious.
If his bones or joints were affected, we might need to get a doctor.
No need for such trouble. Just directly send him to the hospital.
Find someone trustworthy to take care of him. Always update me about him.
Okay.
[Hong Manor]
Yatou.
Yatou! Yatou!
Yatou, wake up! Don't scare me. Yatou!
- Er Ye. - Yatou.
If you're sleepy, you should have transferred to your bed to sleep.
I don't want to keep lying on my bed.
Earlier, I...
was fixing some old clothes here.
It's getting cold. The season will be changing soon.
It's time to change into new clothes.
Okay. Once you feel better, we'll go shopping
and buy some new fabrics.
Okay.
Oh, right. In taking the medicine,
if you feel anything wrong or have any uncomfortable reaction,
you must tell me. Okay?
Don't worry.
I'm getting better and better since I've taken this medicine.
Don't worry.
That's good then. Come.
Come. Take your medicine first.
Here. Be careful for it's hot.
Oh, right. These are the sweets I've prepared for you. What do you want to eat?
This one.
- Is it sweet? - Yes.
Taohua!
Er Ye, what are your instructions?
Go to Xie Jiu Ye's Manor and tell him that at noontime today,
I'm inviting him to come to my manor for a chat.
Yes.
- Is it sweet? - Yes.
Eat one more, okay? Here.
It's all thanks to your guidance that we were able to successfully obtain our goals
in our recent Beiping trip. I still haven't had the time to especially visit you and offer my thanks.
- I was disrespectful. - Er Ye, no need to be that courteous.
I've already brought the medicines we got from Beiping to the doctors, so they can refine it.
May you help me check the efficacy of those medicines.
In your recent Beiping trip, you've taken a big risk.
I've heard some of it.
May Er Ye lead the way then, so I can broaden my knowledge, too.
I want to see that highly valuable medicine.
Jiu Ye, please.
Er Ye.
The manager of Liyuan has come. It seems urgent.
Er Ye, if you have some matters to deal with, just go.
I have to trouble you with Yatou then.
Please.
Madam, do you recently feel suffocated,
feel cold in the morning, but hot at night?
After taking in the medicine, my sleep has been quite peaceful at night.
I also don't feel unwell.
Do you like to sleep more, have coughs, or poor appetite?
Although your health is very weak,
your mental state has greatly improved.
It means that the medicine still had an effect. Curing illness is like spinning silk.
- Let's do it slowly. - Thank you, Jiu Ye.
That's great, Madam. You're finally getting better.
I suddenly remembered some medicinal diet treatment. It might be useful for your madam.
Go and get me a pen and paper.
Yes.
How long do you still plan to hide this?
The medicine didn't have any effect at all, am I right?
No! Jiu Ye, no!
The medicine has an effect. I'm taking in the medicine. It has an effect.
The problem now is just temporary. Everything will get better.
Come. Madam, please get up.
Madam, why must you do this?
Hiding your illness situation will only make matters worse.
What's important is for us to immediately come up with other ways to treat you.
Fo Ye and Er Ye spent all their wealth
just to get this medicine.
They even almost lost their lives.
I can see all the efforts they've spent for me
in our journey. I'd like this medicine to work more than anyone else.
That it can make me live longer, even if just for a day.
I really don't want to see Er Ye looking disappointed.
Er Ye loves you so much. Not only a medicine,
even a more precious or expensive item,
he will stop at nothing to get it.
It's better to immediately tell him. If this path isn't working, let's look for another one.
I understand my health very well.
When a precious medicine like that isn't even working anymore,
what other ways can there still be?
I admit my fate.
In my last days,
I only want to stay by Er Ye's side like this.
Just like before,
just quietly accompany him.
Jiu Ye, I beg you.
Don't tell him about this, okay?
You and Er Ye are very much in love.
It's understandable that you two will care about each other like this.
However, there is someone who must know about this.
Even if I help you deceive Er Ye,
Fo Ye should know about this.
Even if the medicine that spent all his fortune for didn't work,
we should still not hide this from him.
Jiu Ye, please don't tell Fo Ye about it. He's a man that's put great importance on affection and friendship.
If he knew that this medicine didn't work, he'd surely will tell Er Ye about it.
Madam,
Fo Ye has always thought highly of Er Ye.
This time, he didn't mind losing all his wealth just to help Er Ye.
Have you ever thought about why?
Maybe, it's because of that mine mountain.
Not entirely.
When Fo Ye and I came last time to beg you,
it was indeed for the mine mountain.
But this time, it's to save Er Ye's life.
Save his life?
Madam, you've always been aloof to the secular world.
But have you really understood what Er Ye was thinking?
Er Ye gives too much importance on you.
He loves and protects you. He and you are so in love with each other.
But you've been chronically ill.
If you leave before him,
will he choose to live by himself?
Er Ye, he...
Of course, he won't.
Madam, is this the ending that you expect?
No. I have my own fate.
Er Ye still has a long road to take.
He must live well.
Madam, quickly sit down.
If this medicine
was indeed effective and your illness was completely cured,
of course, that would make everyone happy.
But now that things have come to this...
♫ In last night's dream, I went again to the opera stage and put on new clothes and powder ♫
♫ Another round of old songs ♫
♫ Stepping into the classical prison through the northern snow ♫
♫ The sprinkled salt swirl in the air, confusing the dawn ♫
♫ The hairpin of the brothel woman looks a lot like that of an old friend's ♫
♫ When the full moon bids goodbye, there was never a full gather again ♫
♫ The swallow in the hall is holding new earth in his mouth again ♫
♫ The lonely sound reverberates around the rafters of Cui Jiu's mansion ♫
♫ You said that Jiangnan has mist-like drizzling rain ♫

♫ The official has already raised his pen ♫
♫ That year of red snow and blue winter, my red sleeves got wet ♫
♫ Lord, do you still remember the seventh day of the burial of an old friend in the new house ♫
♫ An old friend returns drunk and in a haze to lightly sigh 'I love you' ♫
♫ Does lord still remember how the iron-like general sobbed like a child ♫
♫ A man immerses his loyal bones in the sand, wears his golden armor to conquer the the ends of the earth ♫
♫ Behind me are barn lanterns of prison; my old friend, you are my home ♫
♫ Clear sky then mild drizzle, rain falls on the steps; the umbrellas paired with green clothes looked like a painting ♫
♫ New snow on the 28th of midwinter, paying you back for the bluestone and black earthenware ♫
♫ You said to exchange the golden armor with the fire beacon offering where chrysanthemums are planted in our hometown ♫
♫ The Liyuan Opera during Chang'an's peaceful times has red wine on stage ♫
♫ Before parting after getting drunk, the general asks for another song, and the singer indulges him ♫
