These three gold keys
need to be searched one by one.
At present, Li Dingguo's whereabouts are uncertain.
Zheng Jingyuan is in Taiwan.
Only the key in the hands of Wu Sangui
is the easiest to get.
What Your Majesty implies is
to ask me to go to the Duke Pingxi' mansion
to steal the golden key.
I can't order Wu Sangui
to hand over the golden key.
In that case
he would say that the golden key
had been robbed by Liu Dezhao's men
in Shanxi.
So I have to send someone to steal it quietly.
And this man can't be a man
in the imperial palace or a court.
I understand.
The minister will not seek help from the people in the imperial palace.
Instead, I will go to the martial-arts circles
to recruit some of
the martial arts masters
I knew in the past.
I only tell them that we will go to the Duke Pingxi¡¯s mansion to rob money
not to steal golden key.
If I succeed
I will return to give you report.
If I fail
I would rather die
than betray the emperor.
Imperial doctor Li
This move is very dangerous
you must be more careful
if the situation is in a bad way
you must retreat.
I...
will fulfill tasks entrusted to me.
I will go with you
and I can take care of you.
What are you going to do?
You only have good lying skill
which is helpful for you to escape.
How can you help your brother?
You are a real drag.
To tell Your Majesty the truth.
I am tired of staying
in the imperial palace.
I want to go to the martial arts circles to enjoy myself
and find
my fiance
Li Yihuan.
You are not allowed to do.
For what reason?
We make it clear beforehand.
Sooner or later, I will go out of the palace
and find my fiancee to get married.
Brother
stop feel wronged and act rashly.
I dare not.
Don't embarrass me anymore, Your Majesty.
On that day, on the execution ground
I and Childe Long San had broken off brotherhood
and now we are no longer brothers
but monarch and minister.
Ok.
Then I will make a decree
that you should accompany me in the palace
and never leave.
What if I am determined to go?
Are you going to
cut off the my legs
or lock me into the prison with chains?
Yi Huan
Your Majesty is broad-minded and emphatic.
That's why he puts up with it again and again.
Why do you not appreciate what is good and insatiable?
If your fiancee does not come to you
he must have something more important to do.
When he finishes his tasks
and comes back to find you
it is not too late for you to bid farewell to Your Majesty.
At that time
Your Majesty will let you go.
Sister Huan
Don't be angry with Kangxi any more.
It won't change anything.
At present, our most important task is
to find out the real copper box as soon as possible
and dig out the adulterer.
I will take this task of stealing the golden key
to thoroughly intensify the contradiction between Kangxi and Wu Sangui.
I obey your order, Bro. Zhu
Sorry, Sister Huan.
I know it hurts you.
I'll take you away as soon as
we finish the task.
Bro. Zhu
you don't have to apologize to me.
Maybe you and master are right.
After the restoration of Ming Dynasty
and you become emperor
maybe you
will be a better emperor than Kangxi.
Sister Huan
If there is a day like that
I will not fail
your expectations for me.
Prince
this time Kangxi has no good intention
to send you to Diandu to grab the gold key.
If you succeed
naturally it is needless to say this would be very good
if you fail
he could shirk the responsibility completely
and not turn hostile to Wu Sangui.
But Kangxi never thought that
we could turn his trick to our own use.
When I get the gold key
I will give him a fake one
and disclose to Wu Sangui
that we were instructed by Kangxi
which will further intensify the
contradiction between Kangxi and Wu Sangui.
Prince's plan is very good
but Wu Sangui
already knows the secret of the golden key
and will store up it properly
and send massive forces to guard it.
I'm afraid it's difficult for you
to accomplish the task alone.
We masters are going with you
in order to make sure that you will not fail under any circumstances.
With the help of all the masters
it will be surely successful to
steal the golden keys in Diandu .
But Wu Sangui's office in Duke Pingxi¡¯s mansion has numerous organs.
No one of us, except Master Xueyi
knows the art of organ battle
so
without her
this task can not be accomplished.
Master Xueyi went to Shanxi to pursue Qiu Gui
and I do not know
if she had succeeded.
It is urgent to steal the golden keys.
We have to inform Master Xueyi immediately
that she should join us
in Diandu
after she kills Qiu Gui.
It's up to me.
Recently I have trained a group of pigeons
which could just be used to serve us this time.
Who are you?
You dare burst in Duke Pingxi¡¯s mansion
Didn't you expect that?
Ye Qianying and Ye Mosheng
who have traveled along with you all the way
are all spies of Zhu Ming Alliance.
They are not brothers and sisters at all
but senior sister and junior brother.
Ye Qian's family name should be Fan Qianying.
Her father is Fan Li, a former imperial doctor of Ming Dynasty.
Their encounter with you is not coincidence at all
nor is it a love encounter
between you and a girl at first sight.
Father.
Go
Take the Ye brother and sister
and get back the golden key.
You're still the son of Wu Sangui.
Qianying
Childe Yingqi
Qianying
I've been busy with affairs in the mansion these days.
I haven't got time to accompany you.
Do you feel lonely?
Fortunately
I have the princess to accompany me every day
and
every night I have to practice inner work of heart
to strengthen the effectiveness of this icy muscle and skin cream
and do not feel lonely.
That is good.
Let me see.
How's your face treated?
What is wrong with you?
Come
Qianying
Do you remember
what I said to you
the first time we were robbed at the inn?
Don't chase
Prince Wu.
It's really unsafe
in the wilderness
at midnight.
I am not afraid.
I'm worried about you.
In fact
you only have a little scar
on one side of your cheek
but your facial features and contours
are so delicate
that you don't need to care.
Qianying
do you see it?
You are so beautiful.
Is this me?
Is this really me?
It's you
of course.
Qianying
in my heart
you are an excellent girl
who has both internal and external cultivation and is endowed with civil and martial virtues.
Childe Yingqi
do you still call me Childe Yingqi?
Call me Yingqi.
Ying...
Yingqi.
Thank you very much.
What you present me
is not only a beautiful face
but also a rare tenderness.
Falling stars all over the country are like hemp
which makes it hard to penetrate the mist to see him in the rain.
I am willing to be the pearl in his palm
offering my sincere wishes
the road in memory blossoms with flowers
blooming with brilliance radiating for half a life.
Why did you lie to me?
Why?
I...
I don't know what you're talking about.
Now, under the circumstances
do you still want to deceive me?
You are clearly the killers of Pearl Valley.
You are not brothers and sisters
but senior sister and junior brother.
It is not a coincidence that you met me
but you are searching for the golden key.
You already know everything.
I know
what I should know.
For those things that I am not supposed to know
I hope you can tell me.
What else do you want to know?
I want to know
if you have ever liked me a little
besides searching for the golden key.
I.
Don't lie
tell the truth.
I never liked you.
Kill me.
Although you do not like me
I really like you
you escape then
as well as your junior brother
you two escape now.
I beg your pardon?
You're going to let us go?
My father has deployed 500 elite soldiers
outside the mansion.
You can't escape.
Take this dagger
and take me hostage.
However
if we leave
how can you cope with your father?
I have my own way.
Don't hesitate
to rush out with me as a hostage.
Fan Qianying, Ye Mosheng
you quickly let go of Childe Yingqi
I can also plead for you
in front of the master
otherwise
I will let you die today without burial place.
Move out of my way
or I'll kill Childe Yingqi.
Damn
lose no time to get out of the way.
Quickly get out of the way.
It's important to protect Childe Yingqi.
Stop.
What for?
Do you want to kill Childe Yingqi?
Blessings for concubine Li.
I hear that
our Lady Attendant is doing needlework.
It is so rare.
Come, come, come
and sit down.
Have some tea.
The concubine Li gets promoted.
You are making fun of me.
Yes.
How can there be...?
What is the use to get promoted?
Who in the whole palace
does not know that
the emperor's favorite girl is Lady Attendant
who has no ranks at all?
I don¡¯t want the emperor to patronize me.
It is not so unusual.
Let me have a look.
This is the first time I do needlework.
It looks ugly.
Don¡¯t make fun of me.
We grew up together.
I know you pretty well.
Come on, I won't laugh at you.
Is it good-looking?
The stitches are so rough
that they are can not be shown to others.
But, it does not matter.
Your Bro. Zhu
He will treasure it
and cherish you.
This is not for Bro. Zhu
The small bag is next to the skin.
This is the first time you embroider a small bag.
It is very meaningful.
If it is not for Bro. Zhu, who are you going to give it?
This small bag is
for the emperor.
Didn't you say that
you abandon the love for the emperor?
I think you will treat Big brother
wholeheartedly
in the future.
I do abandon love for the emperor
and I am trying to be totally committed to the Bro. Zhu
but this is the advice of Bro. Zhu.
He said I should not continue the cold war with the emperor
and restore the former intimacy as soon as possible
so I embroider this small bag.
The Big brother is also for the sake of the overall situation.
When the Big brother says these words to you
his heart must be very entangled and painful.
Sister Xue
When we find out the spy
find the copper box
withdraw from the Forbidden City
Bro. Zhu will not be sad again.
Seeing you can finally change your mind
I am really happy for Big brother.
Yingqi
no
I am no longer qualified to call you Yingqi
I will still call you Childe Yingqi.
Childe Yingqi
thank you for saving lives.
Hurry up to escape.
I don't want to see you again.
If I see you next time
I'll have no mercy.
Childe Yingqi
Hurry up.
It's too late to leave.
Childe Yingqi
are you ok?
They escape
how can this be explained to the master?
Be quick
cut my arm.
Can I do this?
Do it quickly!
Yihuan
tomorrow is your birthday.
This is the Sichuan embroidery granted
by the Empress Dowager
who gave it to me
as a reward for saving the emperor many times as he traveled incognito
in order to get in touch with the public.
Even the queen do not have the honor.
Don't you have three wishes in your life?
You would like to eat all the world's delicious food
wear all the world's beautiful clothes
and heal sister Qianying's face.
So
this precious Sichuan embroidery
will be presented to you
as a birthday gift.
It looks beautiful!
Sister Xue
you are really nice to me.
From childhood to adulthood, you left me all the best things.
You are my good, well-behaved little sister.
Well
In fact, you contributed more effort to the emperor
but this empress dowager not only didn¡¯t give you a reward
but also didn¡¯t compliment you
when she met you.
I don't want that old lady rewarding me at all.
If time could go back
I would not brave untold danger
for the hypocrite emperor
who broke his promise.
How happy would he
be to hear that?
By the way
you and your Big brother
as well as Kangxi, share the same birthday.
I also have a birthday gift for you.
Guess who gave it to you.
What is it?
It's a piglet.
It looks a little like me.
Your Bro. Zhu gave it to you.
The Big brother worried that
he would not be able to rush back to the capital.
He had already prepared a gift for you in advance
and put it in my side
and asked me to give it to you.
Your Bro. Zhu
wants you to put him on your chest
and keep him in your mind.
But I work too slowly.
I only embroider a small bag for the junior brother Long
and the Bro. Zhu's birthday gift
is not yet ready.
It doesn't matter.
Although the small bag is for the emperor
your heart
is directed towards the Big brother
who will be satisfied
when knowing this.
Princess, please slow down.
If I go later
my kid's life is in jeopardy.
No
the master has always loved Childe Yingqi.
He will not really kill Childe Yingqi.
Miss Ye
why haven't you left yet?
I am worried about the safety of Childe Yingqi, so I come back again.
I'm going to save him with you.
If you were found out by the master
you would lose your life.
You will fail my son's
infatuation with you.
The princess can rest assured that I have my own way.
Nobody in the mansion has seen my real face.
Now I will disguise myself as your maid
and go with you to the mansion.
No
you will make things worse.
Although my kid is fond of you
he can't leave Duke Pingxi¡¯s mansion
and go wandering with you.
You'd better hurry.
Princess, I am sorry.
I have to go to see Childe Yingqi.
I use a very light technique.
Your chakra will be unraveled soon.
I hope you can get to Duke Pingxi¡¯s mansion as soon as possible
and save Childe Yingqi with me.
As for whether you will reveal
my identity to Duke Pingxi
it's up to you to decide.
So they took you hostage and ran away?
Father, cease to be angry
I was seized with a sudden impulse.
When I knew that
Fan Qianying was a traitor in Pearl Valley
I was very angry
and wondered why she would do this to me.
So I ran to confront her
but unexpectedly
she made a sudden attack on me
and I struggled to resist
but I was no match for her.
When she stabbed into my arm
I was awakened to the truth¡£
But...
it was too late.
Master
blame me for my incompetence
to let the two spies run away.
Father
it's my fault.
It has nothing to do with General Shi.
Is it?
Some come here!
Master
push this unworthy son out
and chop him off.
-Father -master
you must not.
Although Childe Yingqi made mistakes
his death was completely unnecessary.
Father, calms down.
I know I'm wrong.
I ask Father to spare me this time.
You know you are wrong.
What is your mistake?
I was wrong because
I knew Fan Qianying was a traitor in Pearl Valley
but I tried to impress her
with love.
Shut up
you still want to deceive me.
Now you know how it hurts.
According to my secret report
Fan Qianying is a killer trained
by a group of elites of the Ming Dynasty in Pearl Valley
and you are just a weak scholar
who has no power to snatch a chicken.
If she intended to kill you
would you still have a chance to live?
This wound does not hurt your vital part
which implies that she was merciful to you.
You two clearly devised the plan.
You deliberately let her escape with you as a hostage.
Is there anything wrong with what I said?
Father is really wise
I can't hide my schemes from you.
I freed the enemy privately
and the sin is unforgivable.
Please pardon my mistake.
Be careful.
If it falls off
I'll tell you
your heads will be moved.
Be careful.
Eunuch Li
Miss Yihuan
Why didn't the emperor go to the imperial study today?
The emperor celebrates his birthday in the imperial garden today.
The Empress Dowager
the queen
and all the concubines
go to the imperial garden to celebrate the emperor's birthday.
Didn't he let you go?
I'm just Lady Attendant with a low rank.
How can I celebrate the emperor¡¯s birthday with him?
Miss Yihuan
It's not that I love nagging
your personality
should be restrained.
When the emperor
dressed up as a guard to become sworn brother and sister with you
it was just a passing fancy.
The emperor thought it was funny.
How can you take it seriously?
I tell you
after all, the emperor is the son of the heaven.
Fortunately, he is broad-minded
and sincere to you.
If other concubines
dare to disobey the emperor
the concubine
would have been executed by the emperor for many times.
Do you know that?
Be careful.
Master
who are you?
I reply to the master
I am the new maid named Qiuyue bought by the princess.
The princess learns that Childe Yingqi
violated the master's military orders
and would be disposed of in accordance with the military criminal code.
She faints as she worries about her son
sending me to report to you specially.
She deserves it.
It is the son she has brought up who made all the mess.
Qiuyue
you should hurry back to the mansion to take care of the princess.
The princess is looked after by Wangyue and other maids
while the princess asks me
to guard Childe Yingqi.
It is such a joke
I violate the military code
and the master punishes me.
What's the use of keeping you at my side?
Be quick to make your way out.
Slow down.
Qiuyue
I think
you are much
braver than the ordinary maids.
Wangyue and other maids
will tremble
and stand unsteadily
as my rage is provoked
you can still look calm.
Master
show mercy to your son.
Master
please spare the kid
I would like to accept any punishment.
I'll handle your mistake
with you later.
How dare you spoil your on so much that he dose not know act properly
and feel free to do what he likes.
I know I am wrong, master
but I only have
one son
I only plead you to spare him
for my sake.
I am willing to accept any punishment.
Get up
it's so embarrassing
for you to kneel here.
Thank you, master.
Qi¡¯er
No wonder your father gets angry.
How can you fail to differentiate
between the enemy and ourselves just for a girl
and privately release the formidable enemies?
Master
Qi¡¯er is just temporarily trapped by love.
When master was young
you also bristled with anger for girls.
Qi'er's sentimental disposition
is just following the nature of master.
Qi¡¯er
Yes, you are correct.
People all say that
when I was young
I got furious for a woman
but I just judged
the situation
I realized that the Ming Dynasty was going to be extinct.
Then I went to Shanhai Pass to meet the Qing army
and became the founding minister of the Qing Dynasty
not just for Chen Yuanyuan.
If your father only loved Chen Yuanyuan
how could I marry your mother ?
Where did you come from?
I just have long hair and short wisdom.
I just talk nonsense. master
But when people
are young, they will have romantic affairs.
Qi¡¯er is just temporarily trapped by love
and is difficult to extricate himself.
He does not intentionally disobey master
I plead you to forgive him.
Qi¡¯er, be quick
beg your father to forgive your sins.
I am aware of my mistake
and ask you to forgive me.
Qi¡¯er
for your mother's sake
as long as you are willing to make a solemn oath in front of your father
that henceforth
you will make a clean break with Fan Qianying
and no longer think of her
I will spare you.
Qi¡¯er
swear to master quickly.
Mother
father
I can't make this oath.
I don't want to deceive you two
because I can't forget her.
You wake up
Qi¡¯er
that Fan Qianying's feeling
for you is not genuine at all.
She comes close to you to make use of you
she doesn't love you at all
and she is not worth your love.
No, it is not the case.
I believe that Qianying loves me
father
although we have different positions
we really love each other
and neither of us
wants to tarnish the true love.
master.
Somebody comes here.
Childe Yingqi violated the ban
and privately released the enemy.
The crime was unforgivable.
Drag him out and behead him for me.
Yes, master.
You could not do that!
Master
I only have one singe son Qi¡¯er.
If master kills Qi¡¯er
I can not afford to live.
Master.
Will you make a solemn oath now?
Be quick.
Father
your son has already made an oath to Qianyng
that I will never fail her love.
If I make another false oath
I am not only unfaithful to Qianying
but also not filial to you.
Drag him out.
Slow down.
Master.
If you kill him
I will not cherish anything in this life
master
I bid farewell to you forever.
Mother.
Princess.
Mother.
Well
Yurou
as you have done your utmost
to support me for twenty years
I will spare him this time
but
although he is exempted form death
his guilt can to be pardoned.
Somebody comes here.
Yes.
Push Childe Yingqi out
and beat him fifty batons.
Yes.
I am grateful to master for sparing him.
You must hold yourself
and refrain from showing any flaws
or you will not be able to help Qi¡¯er
but will harm him.
Master
please don't beat him anymore
just beat me if you want.
Master
master, I appeal to you.
Master
Qi¡¯er
Never beat him again.
Master, I beg you
master.
-Beat him. -Master
I plead you.
Military orders cannot be disobeyed.
Qi¡¯er.
So many beautiful women.
Each of them
is attractive in her own way.
They are so pretty.
Your Majesty
I wish you longevity
good fortune and happiness.
Your Majesty
I know that the emperor has always been busy with administrative affairs
and often has trouble sleeping.
So
I sewed this small bag for Your Majesty
which contains twelve herbs and spices.
It could not only repel mosquitoes
but also relieve fatigue.
I am clumsy
and naturally can't rival other sisters
and this is just my trivial contribution for Your Majesty¡¯s health.
This small bag is beautifully embroidered.
It has delicate fragrance
which is refreshing.
I appreciate your effort, concubine Xian.
This concubine Xian's hands
are so ingenious
she is much more excellent than the girls engaged in embroidery works in the imperial palace.
In fact, in my opinion
none of the concubines
can match her.
