My wish
I can tell you.
I wish to have today every year
with you.
A moment like this
I will never forget.
I just don't know if there's a chance
to spend the birthday with you again.
Junior Long
how come?
Don't you have birthdays every year?
We can spend time together every year.
You don't want to be my concubine.
I can do nothing
to keep you in the Forbidden City.
You will leave me sooner or later.
How can you accompany me
to spend the birthday every year?
You...
are you blaming me?
I do not blame you.
You were born different from me.
You are a free bird.
This Forbidden City
is like a bird cage
trapping you.
Maybe you stay in there
you are not happy.
I am happy.
When I'm with you
it's the happiest time.
Junior Long, do you remember?
Only your dragon's tears can cure my illness.
Unless I...
unless I have to
or I will not leave you.
OK.
I also want to keep you forever
forever
forever.
Forever is so far away
we can
live for now.
Yes
forever is so far away.
Let's live for now.
Junior Long
I see you look very tired today.
Those days I was looking for you
there are so many memorials.
I may have read it for too long
so I didn't have a good rest.
But I think
your eyes are a little sad today.
Does empress dowager call you over
and tell you something?
Do not tell me
it's all your fault.
I left behind a lot of things
to look for you out of the palace.
I was scolded by Empress dowager.
Empress dowager
even wants to put you out of the palace.
I calmed her for most of the afternoon
then made she calmed.
Junior Long, I am wrong.
I was too willful.
Never again.
Yes, you can not be willful anymore.
If you are still willful
I am afraid even I can not protect you.
Ok.
You go back first.
I still have memorials to read.
If you stay here any longer
I have to be distracted again.
I'm afraid I'll have to stay up late again.
I know.
Then I go first, junior Long.
What's wrong with Kangxi?
Nothing wrong.
I just think he is a little tired
lassitude.
There seems to be a little
subtle sadness.
Sadness?
He said
it's about the last time I left the palace
the Empress dowager called him over and scolded him
and made him throw me out of the palace.
Now I know
the reason why Empress dowager kicked those palace maids
and uncle out
for fear of hurting the emperor's feeling.
It's a false alarm.
It seems
Oboi had not yet been cured.
Wait till godfather and masters come back to the capital
I will discuss with them
think of a way to kill Oboi
spare all later trouble.
Big brother
is your appearing
a trap set up
by Zhu Ming alliance?
You and me have a so beautiful past.
Is it fake?
Yes
it's fake.
Courtier.
Don't be so affectionate.
I'm not your courtier.
she is also not your Huan'er.
You
you knew who we were.
What are you pretending for?
Today you die
or I die.
Have I done anything bad to you?
I have always treated you like a brother.
Huan'er
you and I have so much past.
Is it a play?
Were you cheating me?
Brother
you are the emperor of Qing Dynasty.
I am the prince of Ming Dynasty.
Can we two
be brothers?
Huan'er
I am the daughter of southern Ming Duke Jin Li Dingguo.
I will love you?
Ridiculous!
Whom I really love
is my bro.Zhu.
Why do you do this to me?
I treat you sincerely.
You have betrayed me.
Betrayed me.
Sister Huan
don't talk nonsense to him.
We now kill the fuck Emperor
revenge for my dead father.
Yes
For the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who died in the Ming Dynasty
revenge!
Xuan Ye
go die!
Emperor
have you been up all night?
Tired?
I'm ok.
Has Songgotu arrived yet?
He is waiting outside all the time.
Bring him in.
OK.
Stop.
What other orders?
I am hungry.
You go to the royal kitchen
bring me some snacks I like to eat.
OK.
Lord Suo, Emperor ask you in.
I pay respects to emperor.
Get up.
How's it going?
In reply to the emperor
according to Oboi's information, my henchman
finally found the location of Pearl Valley
perfectly fit
the information revealed by Li Yihuan siblings.
It was when li yihuan was ten years old
there has been a severe drought In local place
and nearby counties
there have also been many cases of bank theft.
Have your men entered Pearl Valley?
No
Pearl Valley has only one hidden entrance
that's a secret way full of tricks
easy to defend, hard to attack.
I am afraid of acting rashly and alert the enemy.
So I ask them not to move.
Emperor
all these signs suggest that
Oboi's words were true.
The proof of that Li siblings are the
rebel party of Zhu Ming alliance
now is becoming more and more clear.
But these proof
is not enough.
What I want is hard evidence.
Hard evidence
do you understand?
I understand, emperor
but you
what hard evidence do you want?
Oboi has a spy called Black Fox.
He is in Pearl Valley.
I want to see him myself.
Ok, I go to arrange.
Eunuch Li.
What's the matter?
What's wrong with Kangxi?
Emperor now is seeing Songgotu.
What is this in your hands?
The emperor said he was hungry
let me go to the royal kitchens myself
bring him his favorite snack.
In the past, if he wants to have a meal
he just orders you
you just let your little eunuch do it
why did you get it in person today?
Maybe he is discussing some secret stuff
with Songgotu
deliberately pushing you away?
I also think
the emperor seems to have sent me away on purpose.
Is...
is the emperor also suspicious of me?
It's not possible.
Uncle, your relationship with me and Yihuan
except godfather
no outsider knows.
Kangxi couldn't possibly know.
The emperor, at ordinary times
if he was discussing affairs of national defense and administration
with confidential ministers
will send people beside away.
Maybe
he is discussing other important things
with Songgotu.
Hope so.
At present, Kang xi and Empress dowager
have nothing wrong
but we must not take it lightly.
Uncle
you need to help me keep an eye on the palace.
I'm trying to raise some people
to assassinate Oboi
Jianqing
I beg you
to go away form the Forbidden City.
It's too dangerous.
I am old.
I don't want to be scared every day.
No way
the things are not clear.
Just pull away
it's too much loss.
I can't explain to godfather and masters.
This way.
You are Black Fox?
In reply to Emperor, I am Black Fox.
You're a kid of the ¡°Eight Banners¡±
why are you only loyal to Oboi
but reluctant to take the initiative to contact the royal court?
I was forced to do so.
Oboi ruled for many years
hold something big and small of my clans.
So I was bound to oboi.
These years
I could only single contact Oboi.
Ever since oboi was banned
I also thought of informing the royal court.
But I am afraid of Oboi's majesty
not dare to be rash.
Until this time, oboi was sincere
to consecrate me and others to royal court
then I can have a chance to see you.
Look up and speak.
Thank you, emperor.
You inform me the situation of
Li Yihuan siblings
in Pearl Valley in detail.
There must be no hiding.
OK.
Li Jianqing's birth name is Zhu Cixuan.
He was the last son of emperor Yongli of the Ming Dynasty.
Other sons of emperor Yongli
were separated by the war.
Their whereabouts is a mystery.
So Zhu Cixuan
was called prince by
Li Dingguo and other former Ming remnants.
Li Yihuan is the little daughter of Li Dingguo.
She was born on the same day with Zhu Cixuan.
It is said that emperor Yongli left a decree
betrothed Zhu Cixaun and Li Yihuan since childhood.
So Li Yihuan
was called future crown princess
by these former Ming remnants.
They grew up together as childhood sweethearts.
They have good relationship.
Enough.
You come back
continue to stay in Pearl Valley.
I give you a waist card
in case of an emergency
you can enter the palace to see me directly.
But you have to be careful
cannot let Zhu Cixuan and Li Yihuan discover.
I understand.
You also have to be careful with Eunuch Li.
I heard it from Li Dingguo
Eunuch Li was poisoned by tonifying pill by Oboi.
After Oboi was banned
Zhu and Li use the antidote of tonifying pill
to force Eunuch Li.
Eunuch Li was their eyes and ears.
Oboi also found out about this.
Ever since Oboi was banned
Li Defu never looked for Oboi again
to ask for the antidote of tonifying pill.
Obviously he went and lived as a dependent to Zhu and Li.
Oboi already told me.
I have one more important piece of evidence.
I was going to give it to Oboi
but Oboi asked me to present it to the emperor in person.
The Oboi
finally know
how to be a loyal official.
Emperor
this is one of the three golden keys.
It was originally in Wu Sangui's hands.
In the way to capital of Wu Yingqi
escorting the relics of emperor Yongli
Li Yihuan's sister Fan Qianying transferred it.
The key was held by Zhu Cixuan
so I can have a chance
to transfer it from Zhu Cixuan.
That means
now Wu Sangui and Li Dingguo's
keys
are all fake.
The golden key
is the real one gotten from emperor Yongli
after Wu Sangui killed Yongli.
Good.
You have done a good job.
After I destroy the rebels
I will reward you dearly.
Thank you for your kindness.
I could not stay here long. I go first.
Go.
Thank you, emperor.
Tonight's stuff
don't let it get out.
Emperor, be at ease.
Since the last time I know
there are people outside this palace gossiping
after I come back, I cleaned all the
Palace maids and eunuchs.
The ones that are left now
are people who are infallible.
I misunderstood you last time.
The Xueyi lay Buddhist
is incited by Wu Yingqi
fake to report
real to cover Zhu and Li.
I have your words .
Even I suffered more
it's worth it.
Emperor
what we do next?
Show we arrest Xue Qingcheng
Zhu Cixuan
and Li Yihuan now?
Let me think it over
you go down first.
OK.
Junior Long
why are you so preoccupied?
What's up?
It's Wu Sangui.
I've got another problem.
Let's not talk about this.
You just accompany me to relax.
Come here and look.
Do you see it?
What are you doing?
Why are you hitting the mandarin ducks
to separate them from each other?
Each flew his own way.
They're not a loving couple at all.
It's just an act.
Why do you say that?
You do not believe it?
Do you see that female mandarin duck flying back?
If it really loves the male
how could it be because of a pebble
it's gone forever?
Really
the male mandarin duck did not chase
just wait there
really stupid.
It is not stupid
just sad.
If that female duck is really affectionate
then it should fly back
not waiting for the male mandarin duck
to fly over and look for it.
Junior Long
you are taking advantage of mandarin ducks to complain me?
It's not complaining.
It's just a little sad.
The Empress dowager has been dissatisfied with you.
Queen and Concubines in the harem
they have much criticism about my loving you.
Even the court ministers
they speak ill of me.
Do you know how much pressure I took on?
I know.
In fact, I took on a lot of pressure for you
so I chose to leave you.
But when I saw you
come to me at any cost
I had no idea
but to come back with you.
Your true love to me
I can feel it.
That is my greatest comfort.
Actually
I'm not afraid of any pressure at all.
I'm afraid you've been rejecting me
escaping from me.
Your fiance is always on your mind.
One day you will go out and marry him.
Whenever I think of it
my heart ached terribly.
Do you understand?
Queen
what do you want to say?
Grandma
the emperor has seen Oboi and Black Fox
has confirmed
the true identity of Li Jianqing and Li Yihuan.
But emperor
why did not he arrest and behead them?
To this point
is he still clinging to it?
The fish in the net
you're afraid it might run away?
This time the Emperor has really fell in love.
This fall
is really hard.
It was a setback for him.
Give him some time to calm down.
When he came to his senses
he will deal with it.
Never be in a hurry, Queen.
Junior sister
did you notice
something's not right these days?
It just doesn't feel right
but I couldn't tell what was wrong.
Emperor
is nothing different
but yesterday the grand master sent here the news.
He said recently outside the Pearl Valley
there are a lot of Qing army secret agents activating.
They seemed to be looking for the entrance to Pearl Valley.
You mean
this is related to the Empress dowager seeing Oboi?
Hopefully not
Or...
Even if we can get away with it
this time's elaboration in the palace
will be wasted.
Big brother and masters
will be very upset.
If so
then junior Long is too calmed.
Wish you good luck, your majesty.
Get up.
Thank you, emperor.
You two sisters
there's so much pillow talk to do.
Not pillow talk.
It's that I live in the palace for a long time.
Sometimes I feel lonely
I ask sister Huan to accompany me for a while.
I come at a bad time
bothering you playing chess.
No
I just started with sister Xue
then you came.
Then do you dare to finish this game of chess with me?
Of course I am not afraid.
OK.
Emperor
I go to the small kitchen to prepare some tea for you.
Junior Long
are you sure you want to place it here?
I bet you will lose.
It's not right
I had the upper hand.
You have the upper hand?
It's because I've been yielding you.
Everything is like the chess.
Not until the last
who knows who will win.
Junior Long
You had a problem with those two chess moves.
It should be like this.
Enough.
I win.
Retract a false move!
A gentleman never regrets his chess moves.
I am not a gentleman.
I am a little woman.
Junior Long
You have lost this game of chess.
OK.
I admit it.
Actually, this world thing
even I win
even I lose
as long as it makes you happy for a while
I don't mind losing.
Father
it says
Oboi is pretending to be crazy
and he told Kangxi
Li Jianqing siblings' true identity
and the exact position
of Pearl Valley.
Is it true?
This is the confidential letter send by
the spy I put beside Oboi.
Fortunately we were able to build
a new way for free EIM at last.
Sending a secret letter from Beijing to Diandu
only need three days.
Now Zhu Cixuan
and Li Yihuan's situation
must be very dangerous.
So what are you going to do, father?
Though Li Dingguo has sworn a blood oath with me
but I always feel like he can't let go the past
that I killed emperor Yongli.
He was always thinking about it.
The relationship between me and Kangxi
is increasingly worse.
If I do something at this point
it will provoke Kangxi
speed up his removing the vassal state.
What about
I...
just pretend I don't know anything
let them fight with each other?
Never, father.
We all know that
Li Jianqing is special.
He is the last son of southern Ming Emperor Yongli.
He is also the spiritual pillar of Zhu Ming's alliance.
If he dies
and the whole god of the Zhu Ming alliance was scattered
and it's for them to achieve anything.
If I said before Li Dingguo
still has misgivings about you
he can not be honest with you
then you can take the opportunity
to demonstrate wholeheartness
to Zhu Ming alliance and Li Dingguo.
This can also eliminate
the pain you killed emperor Yongli.
Father
if I expect well
Kangxi will attack Pearl Valley soon.
If he destroys Pearl Valley
kill Li Dingguo
then the whole Zhu Ming alliance
will fall apart.
It will never be strong again.
From then on
what can you be?
I am really muddled.
You woke me up, Qi'er.
You should warn Li Yihuan and others
assist them get out of the Forbidden City.
Is it late?
It can be seen from Kangxi's capture of Oboi
he must play his cards right
arrange thoroughly then attack.
He wants to catch the whole lot in an action of the Pearl Valley.
It's going to take some time.
Hope it's not too late.
Umbrella.
Big brother
Sister Fan
shouldn't you and brother Ye be in Diandu?
Why did you suddenly run back to Beijing?
Don't ask me that now
I and brother Ye
arrived the capital three days ago.
I just haven't told you.
I'm coming right now.
I have urgent information for you.
I have just received a message from Wu Yingqi.
You, sister Xue and junior sister's identity
has been exposed.
How do you know it?
The spies of Wu Sangui in the palace
are not only Xueyi lay Buddhist and sister Xue.
He also put spies in
prison and Oboi's palace.
Fortunately, Kangxi is cautious.
He did not do anything till now.
When I got the message
I came to inform you immediately.
You hurry to inform sister Xue and junior sister
to get away.
Ok, I come back to the palace right now.
Since you and Bro.Ye?
came back three days ago
why haven't I been informed?
Big brother
this
you do not have to ask.
It's just I and brother Ye
had some problem.
What problem?
Is that brother Ye can not let go of Yihuan
can't stay in Diandu any longer
try to sneak back to the capital
to meet Yihuan?
This...
I didn't want to tell you before
I see brother Ye left a letter said he is going to the capital
then I hurry to chase.
Then
I chased him all the way to the capital.
Where is brother Ye?
I've been trying to persuade him for three days
brother has agreed to
come back to Diandu with me.
We thought
we just pretend it never happened.
But at that time
I got a message from Yingqi.
I wanted to see you with brother Ye
but he would not.
I...
I came here myself.
Did not expect that
not only Kangxi refused to let go of Yihuan
even my brother
is thinking of my girl.
Brother Ye
your place is hard to find.
Junior sister
finally you came.
You do not know
I'm worried about you.
You think it is easy to get out from the palace?
In and out, you decide?
It took me a long time to fool the guards.
Don't we usually connect in Cihang medicine shop?
Why today we meet here?
And you gave me so few codes
I've been looking for you all the way.
.
I deliberately kept the code very little
just don't want the rest of Pearl Valley to see it.
Why?
Brother Ye
What are you doing?
Take so many things
and clothes?
You're running for cover?
Not running for cover
it's a trip.
I take you to leave the capital
leave Pearl Valley
find a place where no one knows us
to live a life we want.
You and me
We two leave Pearl Valley?
Yes
just you and me.
This carriage
is with my savings for years.
Not as good as your life in the palace
but it can also provide you with food and clothing for the rest of your life.
Junior sister
follow me to leave.
We find a place
where no one knows us
to restart our life.
I promise
I will give my best all to you.
I won't be like Kangxi
to have countless women.
All of my life
I just love you.
Brother Ye, are you crazy?
You said that to me?
No
I am not crazy.
Think it over for yourself
does Kangxi really love you?
He has the country and beautiful women.
He's just trying something new.
Even if Kangxi does love you
but you are the daughter of former Ming Duke Jin
is the former Ming emperor Yongli directing crown princess.
If he knows all of this
will he still love you?
Then we talk about Zhu Cixuan
big brother loves you
right?
You are wrong
big brother is just like Kangxi
they love the country.
You love in front of the country
is nothing.
It's lighter than a feather.
They're out of your league.
You and I are in a league.
Did you ever say?
is the country's
surname Zhu or Aisin Gioro?
It has nothing to do with us.
That's what I thought.
I'm the one who wants nothing
can stay with you
for a lifetime.
No.
Can't.
Junior sister
my heart to you
is clear.
Why can't you just give me a chance?
Brother Ye, what are you doing?
You asked me out on the sly this time.
I didn't tell bro.Zhu
because I was afraid if I tell him
it will destroy the bond between you brothers.
But please
do not say something like today in the future.
Yihuan
You really don't want to go with me?
Brother Ye
I can't leave the palace for long.
Kangxi is already suspicious of me and bro.Zhu
I have to hurry back.
Brother Ye
What are you doing?
Junior sister
I don't want to force you
but I have no choice.
Brother Ye, are you crazy?
Junior sister
do not be angry.
I take you to leave first
find a place where no one knows us
to restart our life.
After we get married
I'll come back with you
to apologize to Duke Jin and my father.
Do not blame me.
One day in the future
you will thank me.
Sister Fan
what are you doing here?
I saw your code signal.
what did you do to junior sister?
Senior sister
it's a long story.
I'll explain it to you later
but if you have to stop me today
don't blame me for ignoring our old friendship.
I'm done with you and your younger sister.
I came to tell you
big brother junior sister
and sister Xue's identity is exposed.
Kangxi knows everything.
Sister Fan, is it true?
Junior Long has known?
Do sister Xue and bro.Zhu know?
I informed big brother first
then I came to inform brother Ye
and
the stronghold of our Cihang medicine shop has been exposed.
So I and big brother
will meet at mirror lake in the northern suburb.
Let's meet them at once.
Finally it's done.
Emperor.
Li Defu
what are you doing?
Emperor
I am guilty.
Emperor, please spare me.
What sin do you have?
Emperor
I have two great sins.
Each term is to be beheaded.
Emperor
please allow me to make amends.
Big brother
what's wrong?
Our identities are exposed.
Kangxi has known everything.
Maybe
Oboi really pretends to be crazy?
Yes.
Kangxi did not do anything
he wants to follow up a clue and seize the culprit
arrest us all
at one go.
Did junior sister know?
She is not on duty in the royal study
and not in Lodge of Eternal Happiness
do not know where she goes.
I am worried.
Has Kangxi already arrested her?
What should we do?
Qingcheng
your identity is exposed.
You must get away of the Forbidden City right now .
After you get out
you go to meet sister Fan and brother Ye
you leave the capital together.
Big brother, what about you?
Sister Huan is unknown
I can't leave her
and run away.
I have to find her
take her to leave.
Time is limited
before Kangxi do anything
you get away.
No.
Big brother
you do not go, I do not go.
Qingcheng, do not be a fool.
Hurry to get away.
Big brother, you do not go
I will go nowhere.
Qingcheng
You don't say anything.
You can't leave your junior sister alone.
If something has happened to you
I also can't live.
Qingcheng
I don't deserve this.
Worth or not
it's decided by my heart.
Big brother
the three of us went into the palace together.
We should go together.
Junior sister's Kungfu is not good.
One more person is more power.
When we find her
with our kung fu and her Qing Kung
we can get away with it.
OK
let's split up to find.
Meet me half an hour later at Lodge of Eternal Happiness.
Original
you are the spy collude with Oboi.
Emperor
I was forced.
At that time Oboi was in power
not only me
even all the officials in the royal court
have to obey him.
Oboi also forced me to eat
the tonifying pill.
I have to obey him
Emperor.
But I never did harm to the Emperor
and Qing Dynasty.
Poisoning my diet
is not harming me and Qing dynasty?
Emperor, spare me.
Oboi forced me to do it.
It does not hurt your life
just
make you feel tired.
neglect the affairs of state.
If I do not put the drug
Oboi will send another one
to do it.
You flunkey
still quibble.
Emperor
I dare not to quibble.
I am just being honest about
how to be controlled by oboi.
Emperor, please spare me.
Spare my life.
This first sin
not only you have
more half of the officials in the royal court have.
I used to have said
forgive all past sins of obeying Oboi.
I am the son of sky
precious words.
So your first sin
I spare it.
The second sin?
Thank you, emperor.
After the fall of Oboi
he did not report me.
I still went quietly to Oboi for the cure
but did not expect
that day...
Stop.
Fast let go of manager Li.
Imperial physician Li
if you kill me
you also can not live.
Li Defu
don't think you killed me
then no one will know that you are Oboi's spy.
Do not forget
I also have my sister Yihuan.
If I die
she'll never let you go.
Eunuch Li
you know
I...
I will not harm others.
I hate those people who harm others
Secretly.
So...
if you do not want to hurt
us
then we
will not do nothing to you.
But if you want to hurt us.
At that time, the Li siblings promised me
They will not tell this to anyone
I think...
they are just
the spies the emperor had sent to Oboi.
Although found out that I was used by Oboi
but they are kindhearted
willing to let me go.
Do not tell this to anyone.
I am very grateful
but I did not expect...
Since uncle doesn't want to die.
So you just hand over the copper box
we will give you the antidote of tonifying pill.
Li siblings hold the antidote of tonifying pill
to threaten me.
Let me be their eyes and ears.
I think they were just like Oboi
want to Pry the Emperor and Empress dowager's news
to get the love of you
then I agreed.
Have your poison undone?
No, no.
I still have to take an antidote once a month
otherwise the effect of the poison manifest.
I will be in hell.
Such being the case
then why did you turn yourself in to me?
That day emperor
and lord Suo
suspected Li siblings are the rebel
Party of Zhu Ming alliance.
I was so scared.
I can tell you
I have been thinking and thinking these days.
I think the Li siblings
can really be rebel party.
I have served three generations of emperors.
Emperor is wiser than
Emperor Tai Tsung and your father.
Qing Dynasty has the emperor
it will be prosperous all is at peace
the people live and work in peace and contentment.
If I spy for officials
strive for your favor and take the profit, that will be ok
but I cannot help the rebels to do?
things to harm Qing Dynasty.
I pondered
then Determined to turn myself in to you
and reveals Li siblings.
I beg you, emperor.
For the sake of me
served three generations of emperors for several decades
spare me.
Your second sin
is the sin to be beheaded.
Emperor, spare me.
At that time, the Emperor favored the Li siblings so much.
Even the Queen and Lord Songgotu
dare not to try to persuade.
Empress dowager also can't do nothing.
I...
how dare I not listen to them?
But...
I have come to my sense.
Even I will die, I also
want to reveal these siblings
to you.
Emperor.
Even you do not spare me
at least I
wiped out two venomous snakes that lurk deep
beside you
also regarded as I am loyal to Qing Dynasty.
You are smart.
Actually I
already know the identities of Li siblings.
They are not siblings
I knew that too
you are forced by them
to be their eyes and ears.
You already know.
Do you remember
that day empress dowager went out
to see Oboi?
Yes.
Oboi's madness grew worse.
He can not even recognize me
and he poured the medicine
for him
all over me.
Old stuff
Oboi is not crazy at all.
You were fooled by him
Oboi is not crazy.
Then
is he pretending to be crazy?
Yes
you were poisoned by tonifying pill.
You have to take the antidote once a month.
But ever since Oboi was pretending to be crazy
you never ask him for the antidote.
