You all!
Will you follow me to fight another round?
We'll pledge our lives to you, General!
Go!
General Xian.
Bastard!
It's over now.
How does it feel to be a traitor?
All the people in the world
are entitled to call me a traitor.
But you don't.
Our country has been bullied for so many years.
I will become a true traitor
if I cooperate with you.
Tang people like to emphasize universal peace.
You think to admit foreigners to be officers in Imperial Court
and teachers in the Academy,
you can really ignore other countries.
It's just because you've been strong enough
over the years.
That's why you think so.
But you have no idea
what other people really think.
I've been a hostage in Tang State for so many years.
I've always been on good terms with Yu.
You even made me to be an officer in Tang State.
Have you ever thought about that...
What these years
mean to me?
Have you ever thought about that...
I am a people form Yan State.
Why would I believe
Princess's plan?
Why would I trust you?
It's because I know that
you can't coexist with
Prince Long Qing.
No matter for throne of Yan State,
or just for survival.
You should
prefer
he die.
I lost in the Revolt Party.
But I successfully
to make everyone think
we brothers didn't get along well with each other.
All this is a shell game.
Because we knew
what we wanted from the beginning.
What I want
is the so called throne.
What he wants
is far beyond the mundane.
But we both want to
destroy Tang State.
In order to destroy Tang State,
you overestimated yourselves.
Now, we are united.
And we have such a powerful support.
How can't we destroy Tang State?
For thousands of years,
you relied on your strong power
and bullied around.
How glorious you were!
Have you ever thought about that
you would failed so badly one day.
All human beings are mortal.
No matter how strong an empire is,
it will fall one day.
I don't know
when the history of Tang State
is coming to an end.
But it can't be now.
And it's impossible
Tang State will destroyed by you.
Everyone says
we are undefeated.
It's wrong.
We are not as invincible as
we are rumoured to be.
But...
We always win in the end.
There will be no more Tang State in the world.
So there will be no more victories.
Of course!
In the future,
we will ruin the whole Chengjing City.
Your Majesty,
there's a battlefield report from Chengjing.
We were deceived.
There was no battle for defence in Chengjing.
That was a trap set by Chong Ming and Long Qing.
How about my cavalry with heavy armor?
Xian Zhilang.
How about General Xian?
They're all dead.
Chong Ming, damn!
Long Qing, damn!
Who can go to Yan State and kill them for me?
And that old bastard in Yan State!
He dared to cheat us!
What was going on here?
Why would Tang State's cavalry with heavy armor
died here?
It must a trap set by Yan State and Golden Horde.
For twenty years,
we three have endured hardships to revive
and have endured humiliation to revenge.
And finally! We made it!
Today, Long Qing and I
can have a toast in Yan State's palace.
Father.
Brother.
The war is not over yet.
It's too early to celebrate.
Long Qing,
we won a great victory this time.
Today,
we must drink until we are thoroughly drunk!
I'll go to the battlefield with you tomorrow.
And we will kill all the Tang people.
Get us some wine!
Long Qing is right.
I am getting old.
Yan State's future
is in your hands.
You two must pull together.
And exterminate Tang State
to revive Yan State.
Father,
our goal is not just Yan State.
Our goal is the whole world.
Great!
Good!
Come on!
God bless Yan State.
Father,
I am heading to the northeast battlefield right now.
Now?
Yes.
I am going to kill them unprepared.
The date to destroy Tang State
is coming.
Father.
Brother.
Take care of yourselves.
See you!
Be careful.
God bless Yan State. Prince Long Qing is bound to win.
Xian Zhilang is so incapable.
He ruined my plan.
I...
I will execute his family.
- Lord Jin! - Lord Jin!
Li Hunyuan!
Lord Jin, you can't go in there.
Let me go! Let me go!
- Lord Jin! - Lord Jin!
Let me go!
Lord Jin!
Principle Jin,
I didn't summon you.
What are you doing here?
I... = Principle Jin =
I am here to seek justice = Principle Jin =
for all the dead soldiers.
They were defeated.
There is no justice at all.
Your Majesty, please don't forget.
Even our former king went on an expedition to Badlands,
he didn't dispatch the cavalry with heavy armor.
It's fitted by Tang Code that...
Cavalry with heavy armor
must guard the capital.
My imperial edict
is the Tang Code.
Who dares to defy my order?
Our former king said...
People is the most important.
And the country comes in second.
The king should be the public servant.
How can you outmatch
four thousand people's bodies?
You are so arbitrary!
How dare you!
You insulted me.
Guards!
Yes, Your Majesty.
Drag him out and behead him!
Yes, Your Majesty.
Your Majesty, you can't kill Lord Jin.
Please, Your Majesty.
Shut up!
I will execute you
if you intercede for him again.
Xu Chongshan,
do you want to against me too?
Hurry up!
Such a fatuous and self-indulgent ruler!
You will ruin Tang State sooner or later.
Pull out his tongue!
And dismember his body!
Are you Chao Xiaoshu?
Yes, I am.
I've told you that
I would kill you by myself one day.
You come to me today.
Do you think you are a cultivator in Stage of All-Knowing
and you can break into my palace alone?
You can't fight alone
no matter how excellent you are!
Chong Ming, you should have heard
the story of Rainy Night in Spring Breeze Pavilion
when you were a hostage in Tang State.
Me, Chao Xiaoshu.
You should have heard a lot about
I can against numerous rivals alone.
Right.
You were quite imposing in Spring Breeze Pavilion.
But it was because you had Ning Que to help you.
And you had Yanse, the Master of Talisman to help in the end.
But...
You're alone now.
So what?
So you will die.
Kill him!
They can't die in vain.
None of them!
I am so pleased.
In my twilight years,
I still have the chance to witness
our country to defeat Tang State.
I have been waiting for this day
all my life.
You are wrong.
Tang people didn't lose.
The most powerful cavalry with heavy armor of Tang State.
They were all died in Yan State.
You said they were not defeated.
I am afraid this is the most tragic failure
in the history of Tang Dynasty.
But don't forget.
There still one Tang people
standing in front of you now.
Li Hunyuan!
How can you treat the previous statesman like that?
Don't you know that...
Lord Jin is father's first minister?
He broke into my palace without authorization.
And insulted me.
Of course I should kill him.
Xu Chongshan.
I am here.
Send someone to escort Lord Jin back to home quickly.
Yes, Your Highness.
You!
Hua Shanyue.
You let him go?
To deliver my imperial edict,
Zeng Jing and Grand Secretary Wang are reinstated right now.
Ask them to join the council.
Yes, Your Highness.
I am the King of Tang!
I'm doing this so that
you can still be a good king!
Kneel!
Long live the king! Long live the king!
Arise!
General Xian and cavalry with heavy armor
were completely annihilated
in the battle of Chengjing.
It's all
my fault.
I'll pay with my life
when the war is over.
But before that,
I think you should figure out
what's the most urgent thing right now.
If all the problems can be settled by kneeling,
then why I need you?
All of you...
Arise.
Lord Zeng.
I am here.
Lord Wang.
I am here.
His Majesty decided to reinstate your official positions
for you can throw yourselves into the breach
when our country in danger.
He hopes you can save our country.
Instead of having you here,
struggling with what's right and what's wrong.
Your Majesty, we won't let you down.
We will rack ours brains
and try our best.
Great!
Then let's begin.
Who is the real king?
Wei City
has been besieged by the Allied forces for months.
There's no food
in the city.
General.
What's wrong?
Third Prince ascended the throne.
Mother,why don't you drink it?
I am not hungry.
Just drink it.
What kind of meat is this?
It tastes so sour.
It's horse meat.
Why do we eat horse meat?
Because...
There's little food left in the city.
It tastes bad.
I don't want it.
Kiddo,
you eat it
for survival,
not for enjoyment.
But I feel
so sick.
I don't want it.
Just follow me.
Kiddo,
do you see it?
Mother,
what's wrong with them?
Are they sick?
No, they aren't.
They were starved to death.
These good soldiers...
They sacrificed themselves
for their own country.
Come on. Drink some water.
These dead soldiers...
Some of them were hurt.
Some of them were seriously ill.
At last,
they chose to starve
to leave the short food
to their brothers.
Kiddo,
you need to remember.
No matter how hard it is,
you have to live doggedly.
Your father said that...
You are the hope of Tang State.
If you don't live well,
those soldiers' sacrifice will be in vain.
I know.
Don't cry.
Your Majesty,
I have news to report.
Kiddo,
go inside.
General Ma,
please arise.
Is there any news from the capital?
Just as we expected,
Third Prince ascended the throne.
Yu is so enterprising.
It's like
her father.
Tamper with the posthumous edict
is a sin of treason.
How can our previous king
rest in peace?
In this case,
how do we get back to the capital
and when do we go back to the capital?
We need to take a long view.
Your Majesty,
I think...
We can't go back to the capital
for the moment
until it's safe.
In case of
putting yourself in danger.
But we are short of food now.
We can't stay here for long.
I...
I'll see what I can do.
Your Majesty,
The darkest time of Tang State is coming.
= Memorial =
Hierarch,
the Northeast Army of Tang State
was almost annihilated
in the battle of Chengjing.
Now,
Sage is dead.
King of Tang is dead.
Yan State won the first battle.
Tang State was badly hit.
I think...
It's the best time to conquer Tang State.
Jurisdiction Division.
Oracle House.
What do you think?
Hierarch,
I think...
It's not the best time to conquer Tang State.
Why?
Sage tried to against the god's will.
It's was his own decision.
It's quite far-fetched
to get Tang State involved.
Besides,
Sage is famous in the world.
He has a lot of supporters.
Speaking of the battle in Chengjing,
it was the grudge between Yan State and Tang State.
I am afraid it's hard to arose other countries' wills to fight.
How can we incite them to crusade against Tang State together?
Li Zhongyi, King of Tang,
took the Saint Virgin of Demonic Cult under his wing.
Is that a reason?
Who is
the Saint Virgin of Demonic Cult?
Tang State
is a country that doesn't believe in Light.
They are not only
protect the Daughter of Lord of the Deceased.
And even their queen
is the Saint Virgin of Demonic Cult.
They will bring great disaster
to the world.
Such a country
doesn't deserve to survive.
Everybody,
Do you still
have any objections?
The whole world is going to crusade against Tang State.
Let's welcome the light!
Light will never die. Righteous path lasts forever.
The king of Dahe State
and the Calligraphic Prodigy of Mochi Garden had announced that
they would crusade against Tang State
with West Shrine.
Why did they do that?
Tang State is the enemy of the whole world now.
Dahe State just recognized the situation.
I am here to persuade you.
You should consider your situation now.
Tang State has a history of thousands of years.
It's not easy to conquer.
I have seen his failure.
Announce the whole world,
the whole world is going to crusade against Tang State.
Light will never die. Righteous path lasts forever.
Get up!
Follow me!
Please.
Your Highness,
this is a letter
written by the Hierarch of West Shrine's Hall.
If stars are covered by the night,
Tang State will be in chaos.
Just surrender.
This is a surrender letter
from the Hierarch of West Shrine's Hall.
He thinks I'm a woman.
He thinks I must be afraid of death.
Am I right?
I want to ask him one question.
Have we ever surrendered
in the history of Tang Dynasty?
Your Majesty,
it's time for you to take a stand.
You are the new king of Tang State.
You need to know
what you should do.
Just rip it up!
Long wise the king!
