[Episode 19]
Let's hurry.
Where should we go?
Prepare more torches! Search inside!
This way.
Hurry!
Get in quickly.
Nothing here! Search that way!
What's wrong?
Why are you bleeding?
It's nothing.
I'm used to little wounds like this. I won't die.
Let's stop running.
Let's go back.
I'll take you to see a doctor, okay?
An Imperial doctor?
An imperial doctor wouldn't treat a Heavenly Samurai traitor.
What are you saying?
I heard something. Go and search!
What are you doing?
What are you doing?!
The one they're after is me.
It's already a capital crime to claim that I'ma Heavenly Samurai. I will die for sure.
Why not take some with me when I die?
What do you mean by that?
What are you gonna do?!
I'm sorry.
I can't take you to see the end of the skies and oceans anymore.
What are you doing?
Ji Ye.
Ji Ye!
Come back here.
Come back here! Come back here!
Don't leave me by myself!
Don't abandon me!
Ji Ye!
What am I gonna do?
Ji Ye, come back here!
Come back!
Surround him!
I've got what you want.
Try and take it from me!
Kill him!
Charge!
Come back here!
Come on!
Come at me!
Come on.
Ji Ye!
Let her go!
Ji Ye!
Let go of me!
All of you!
Ji Ye.
It's empty. Beat him!
No!
Ji Ye!
Please allow me to give my report.
General. Please allow me to give my report.
General.
General Tuoba.
General Tuoba rushed over here. What can I help you with?
I want to see General Xi.
General Xi is still recuperating from his old wounds.
- General Tuoba! - Anyone that stops me will die. Same with you!
Don't move.
General Xi, you are in a good mood.
After undergoing a large battle, you can still be here enjoying Zhengyan tea so leisurely.
However, I'm afraid that deep down, you are also immensely afraid.
You charge into my home and kill my servants.
The executioner is not afraid.
What is there for me to fear?
You are afraid I'll reveal your true identity.
A traitor of the Heavenly Samurai.
It seems that you are injured.
They are simply old wounds that have yet to heal.
I see that you still do not dare to meet people with your true identity.
Youfeng Pond is a small place.
General Xi, how long can you hide?
General Tuoba, are you upset out of embarrassment?
You let the Heavenly Samurai escape.
If you do not complete His Lordship's assignment,
you will be punished. Isn't that right?
That's right. Youfeng Pond is small.
However, if somebody still dares to act so pompously in my house,
I definitely will not be courteous.
Bring it here.
If you want to kill me,
Why did you bring me to General Xi's?
Then I'll be a bit more straightforward.
Let me ask you, was General Xi also in the Heaven Samurai's fight?
I've never seen General Xi.
Such a nice teacher-student bond.
But Ji Ye, although your aspirations are large, your fate is poor.
People won't give you the thing you want so you insist on having it.
So you can only bet with your life.
Once you lose your life,
what else do you have left?
It's just as well.
Then I'll give you my life.
Ji Ye!
In your hand, there is an ancient spear.
When it was in your great-grandfather's hand,
anyone who stood in front of him would be in fear.
Who dared to look down at him?
To become a real Samurai, it's not about fighting one person, but fighting the whole world.
If you want to fight the whole world,
you must first stay alive.
General Tuoba, I'm sorry to disappoint you.
Please go back.
Princess, please change out of your clothes.
Otherwise, your aunt will scold us again.
Princess.
Get out!
Yes.
Why are you so mean?
We're here to take a look at you.
Lately, it hasn't been calm in the city.
Royal Father has ordered that you need to stay put inside the manor.
You're not to go outside.
The Heavenly Samurai are causing chaos. Now bait have been laid throughout the city.
We're just waiting for them to enter the traps on their own.
I've got hands and feet. Who's going to stop me from going out?
Who do you have this spear?
Are you familiar with this spear?
The spear's owner is the Heavenly Samurai rebel, Ji Ye, who was just captured by Royal Father.
Are you familiar with it too?
Where is he?
The drill ground outside of the city. He will be executed tomorrow.
Behead.
Behead. Hehe.
Yu Ran!
Are you sure Yu Ran will go to Lu Guichen?
It's good if she does.
Then it'll help me find that sword.
If she doesn't go, I'm not surprised either.
Now the whole city knows.
Heavenly Samurai rebel Ji Ye has been held in Wuncheng by General Tuoba.
Prefecture Princess is going to save him by herself.
It looks like you are very confident about General Tuoba's plan.
I have confidence in the Crown Prince.
Even though the Crown Princess has inherited the sword, he is still a weak child.
My Lord, you won this match.
This young crown prince has brought us Qingyang's Iron Calvary
and Heavenly Samurai's divine sword.
We should treat him better.
Why are you so slow?
Asule! I'm leaving!
I'll wait for you at the next place!
Asule.
Yu Ran! Don't get on!
Crown Prince.
Look.
No!
Lieutenant General.
General Tuoba is suspicious of General Xi. It's not easy for him to come see everyone.
He wants everyone not to get into a hard fight with the Ghost Bat Camp.
Be ready to withdraw from South Huai City anytime.
He also said, Ji Ye is General Tuoba's bait.
He is right now tied at the drilling ground outside the city.
He doesn't want Chief Leader to fall into the trap.
Thank you, Lieutenant General.
Be very careful.
Tuoba Shangyue. Tuoba Shangyue!
What's the point of tying me up?
Just kill me!
You're not worth anything if you're dead.
If I keep you alive, I can turn this place into a river of blood.
General.
Allow me to have a few last words with him.
Why did you tie me up?
Don't you know that you can't just kiss a woman as you wish?
You have to take responsibility for it.
Don't think too much.
You're like a young girl from a common family, always naughty and playful.
You always like to tease others.
So can't others tease you for once?
I was having fun with you.
Ji Ye.
Am I not good enough?
You are a Prefecture Princess, but you don't look like one at all.
You should stay in the palace.
Why did you come here?
See the eyes all around us?
They are all human-eating demons.
Go back to your palace.
Don't come looking for me again!
Say that you like me.
Is it that difficult to say it?
I, Ji Ye.
I've never liked anyone.
Don't be foolish anymore.
I don't like you.
Don't be foolish anymore.
Remember the Gold Chrysanthemums?
You owe me.
You want to die before paying me back?
That would be too simple.
General.
The Lord asked me to give you a letter.
Tuoba Shanyue, I'll kill you!
If it weren't for the Lord, I would kill you right now!
General.
Are you waiting for me?
Don't come over here!
It's been a long time for me to see such a touching friendship.
I'll exchange my life for Ji Ye's.
Release him.
The kings devises the plots. The hero holds the swords to fight fearlessly,
but often it's for an insignificant friendship that sends him to death.
I originally invited you from Qingyang to let you become a king.
But, Crown Prince, you still decided to become a hero.
Neither king nor hero is important to me.
Ji Ye is my brother, so I must come to save him.
Release him.
Okay.
You are a Chief Leader without a sword.
What makes you able to save him?
Asule!
I am the Crown Prince of Qingyang.
If I die here today,
how will you account for it to the Baili Lord?
Protect the Chief Leader!
- Protect the Crown Prince. - Protect the Chief Leader.
Go back! Go back!
No!
Tell them to stop.
or I'll die in front of you.
The Crown Prince has chosen to join the traitors.
Traitors must die.
No!
Crown Prince, give it up.
Okay.
I'll put down the blade.
Congratulations on fulfilling your wish.
Your Lordship, do you still think this is an auspicious time?
There is not better time than now.
Before, I only got Qingyang's crown prince.
Now, I also get the Heavenly Samurai Regiment.
I support Your Lordship too.
I know the best who Yu Ran has in her heart.
That Ji Ye is just an unruly child with no future.
I would never allow her to make a mess following her emotions.
In the eyes of young people,
a passionate romance is the most important.
In my eyes, however, the most important is the hand that holds the sword and authority.
My Lord.
What's the matter?
The Crown Prince is not a prisoner.
Why have you brought him under arrest?
You are not hurt, are you?
My Lord, the Crown Prince and the Prefecture Princess are both unhurt. Please rest assured.
Rebel Ji Ye has been imprisoned in the death row,
awaiting your order, My Lord.
I will take my leave.
You two have finally returned together.
I am pleased. I've been worried about you, Crown Prince.
Your Lordship, you want to see me, so I've returned.
I hope you will free Ji Ye.
I will bear his crime.
I know Ji Ye is your good friend.
But this matter is a predicament for me.
May Your Lordship grant mercy.
You have been in Lower Tang for some time, Crown Prince.
I've treated you as the most esteemed guest.
You are also becoming my son-in-law in Lower Tang.
By convention, I have to fulfill your requirements.
But the Heavenly Samurai have committed the treasonous crime of killing the emperor.
Among all the nations, any self-proclaimed Heavenly Samurai
will at least be punished by skinning the scalp to die.
Even though I am the Lord of Lower Tang,
I cannot ignore the Heavenly Samurai just because of your request.
As for Ji Ye, his identity as a Heavenly Samurai is proven.
My identity as a Heavenly Samurai is also proven.
Are you still talking with me now, Your Lordship?
I know what you want is the sword.
I don't have the sword and I don't know where it is.
That's why I'm willing to give up my life.
I hope that you can let Ji Ye and Tian Jun go.
As long as you are here, Crown Prince, it's fine.
Forget about the sword.
Crown Prince, you know that the Heavenly Samurai are the rebels being hunted by all the nations.
How can such a huge matter be easily forgiven?
If the marriage does not take place, I don't think His Lordship
would pardon Ji Yi.
But if Crown Prince accepts this marriage,
then it's no problem releasing them.
I've asked the Minister of Astronomy to calculate the date and time.
It's an auspicious date two days from now.
If Qingyang's Crown Prince marries Lower Tang's Prefecture Princess,
there will certainly be an amnesty when the two nations form an accord.
Your Lordship just said that all Heavenly Samurai are traitors.
Why does the State Preceptor want a traitor to become Lower Tang's royal son-in-law?
Crown Prince, you are different, of course.
You came from Qingyang. I believe you didn't intentionally get involved with the Heavenly Samurai.
You must have been exploited by those who have ulterior motives.
Isn't just a marriage? No big deal. I accept.
Hey, Asule, don't worry about it.
Yu Ran.
Prefecture Princess Yu, you've decided?
I've decided. Let's do it.
But since I've accepted this marriage arrangement,
will you be releasing Ji Ye?
A marriage is a serious matter, do not make fun of it.
It involves the pride and dignity of both Qingyang and Lower Tang.
Previously, I promised the Emperor of Qingyang. Once the marriage takes place,
I will gift Qingyang 100,000 dan of grains every year.
Therefore, you two cannot arbitrarily dissolve the marriage accord.
If the accord is nullified, leading to warfare between the two nations,
the crime is more than what you two can bear.
Why so troublesome?
I'm not marrying.
Stop right there.
How can you just go back on your word on something like this?
I said no, so I'm not marrying.
The wedding night of red candles is better than the execution platform.
Prefecture Princess, you're back.
The two of you may leave. I'm tired.
Yes.
I'm sleeping!
Prefecture Princess Yu.
What do you want?
General, if you are lobbying for His Lordship, then you may as well not even talk.
You are intelligent, Princess. Surely you know why I am here.
May I ask, are you still not willing to marry?
He is the Crown Prince.
He will become a monarch in the future.
I don't care that he's the Crown Prince. I just want to marry the person that I like.
Even if he is a blade-carrying guard.
The person you like is probably not event qualified to be a blade-carrying guard.
What if your marriage can obtain his safety in return?
Would you still refuse?
I've never been afraid of other people's threats.
It looks like the love that you are so certain to be real
is actually quite fragile when it comes to life and death.
Young people never think about the consequences of their actions.
But it doesn't matter.
I'll let you see how it will ultimately end.
Follow me.
Go. Hurry.
Hurry up!
Let go of me!
Today, you get to watch a good show.
That Bare-Tooth has not eaten for five days.
He is much weakened from normal.
But, when a hungry Bare-Tooth is on the brink of death,
he can still find a burst of huge energy.
Be careful.
Tuoba Shenyue, you are despicable. Why are you tormenting him. Let him come up.
General! General.
General, I beg you, please spare him.
Your son's life is depending on the Prefecture Princess.
Prefecture Princess! Prefecture Princess!
Prefecture Princess, I beg you, save our family!
Prefecture Princess! I beg you!
