[Ever Night]
[Episode 22]
Thanks to his Majesty. I don't think I deserves this.
Since you don't think you deserve this,
why don't you back down?
Backing down? What do you mean?
I didn't mean anything. I just want to remind you
that the new emperor has inherited the throne,
his Majesty can just give out one command, and you will lose your job.
By then, what would you have left?
What are you waiting for then?
The emperor just ascended the throng and he started to make moves on the empress's people.
This is not a good look in court.
Therefore, his Majesty hoped that you would resign yourself.
Resign?
Do you think I'm that stupid?
It has nothing to do with stupidity but has everything to do with the current situation.
You can be sad about the previous emperor's death, so you got sick.
Therefore you resign.
His Majesty and her Highness will think of your achievements.
They hope you will continue to live in the capital.
But if you have his Majesty to make you quit,
then we don't what the consequences would be.
You made it sound so subtle, then I will take a wild guess.
If I don't have the support of the Imperial Court, then I'd have to leave the capital and
that would mean my only path is towards death.
I just have one thing to say.
A wise man would submit to his fate.
Lord Feng, take care and recover from your illness.
Excuse me, but I'll be leaving now.
Oh, yeah.
Lord Wang is way wiser than you.
What?
You . . . you . . .
If it wasn't for that they are so old,
I would not let them off easy.
What are you going to tell the princess?
Tell her? About what?
I'm the emperor. My command is the bible.
Who dares to disobey?
It's good that you have your own ideas, your Majesty.
But you shouldn't neglect the princess's opinion.
She is a woman. She can get soft sometimes.
If I do as she says, the court will be even more chaotic.
All these governors that are closed to the empress will get on top of me.
I just want to show them.
Even if I am disobeying my sister, I'm not going to back down.
There should only be one emperor in a country.
You should've been persistent like this.
What....what's happening?
I'm sorry, your Majesty. I didn't expect Lord Miao to kill himself.
I deserve my punishment!
Miao Keshi wouldn't announce it to the world even if he has to kill himself.
So he was the empress's people.
You realized it too late.
If Miao Keshi is not the empress's people,
how would the princess marry far?
I wasn't being careful.
He was like a rock in the mud.
Stinky and difficult.
"The country will no longer."
Who is he talking about?
If he is talking about the empress,
why did he kill himself?
Stupid bastard!
How dare you accusing me? I'm going to kill his family.
The princess is here.
You leave. Don't let her see us together.
Goodbye.
You...
Your Majesty, what happened here?
"The country
will no longer." Do you think it's not messy enough?
Zeng Jin and Lord Wang's resignation letters were sent here.
Li Hunyuan,
you are so powerful. I asked you to comfort him.
What did you do? You forced them to resign.
Were you even listening to me?
The most important thing is to
have total control of the capital.
There's the royal guard to control the capital.
And there is calvary.
The calvary camp
and the guards.
They are not our people.
How could that be?
I'm already the emperor of Tang. How dare they disobey me?
They will obey you, of course.
But the problem is who does their hearts belong to.
Xu Chongshen was father's best help.
Even though he is good,
but he is not close to us.
There's another key.
Who?
Chao Xiaoshu.
A person who is just floating in this world. What do we need him for?
The world is only the surface. What we need to see
is what's underneath the peaceful surface.
Do you know who is in charge of
Xiao Qing?
Chang Siwei.
That's right.
He used to be called Chang San.
How he became Chang Siwei
is the story after the stormy night of Spring Breeze Pavilion.
The stormy night of Spring Breeze Pavilion.
Chao Xiaoshu
and Chang Siwei.
I need to see them immediately.
It doesn't mean that Chao Xiaoshu has problems with his Majesty, just because he doesn't come to come.
Back when, he turned down the position the previous emperor offered him, and just left.
He expressed his attitude. Today is only an extension of that day.
He wants your Highness to know how much he doesn't want to get involved.
Does he really
just don't want to be a part of the court?
From my understanding of Chao Xiaoshu,
it's hard to say.
You are Chang San to him.
Do you not understand him enough?
Your Highness, you have no idea. Ever since Chao Xiaoshu
has his family, he has changed.
How so?
Xiaoshu has a weird disease.
It's called hen-pecked husband.
Your Highness, that was the joke we say.
Don't take it seriously.
Then you were just talking nonsense.
Get out.
Goodbye.
How are you planning on dealing with Chao Xiaoshu?
He is my father's old friend.
No matter it's me or that woman,
we can't solve it.
You are right.
If we want the guards
and the Ichthyosaur Gang, except for the previous emperor,
no one can do anything about them.
So many people died in the stormy night,
which was how my father dealt with it.
So from my understanding,
it should be safe.
The real problem is in the north.
Shenyuan,
I want to send you to the northern camp.
For that woman?
She is my step mother after all.
Now that she is the Princess Dowager,
if we need to do something to her, I need the right time and a perfect reason.
She will come back to the capital.
What I want
is for her to delay the trip.
Don't worry. I will go.
If I'm the princess, I want you to go to hell as well.
You are no longer the young man before. You need to be more low-key.
You need to quiet the gang as well.
Got it, brother.
But...
Say it.
Since her Highness called me over,
the palace wouldn't allow me to keep quiet.
I need to take a side.
Many of our buddies are working for the court.
Since they are the governors, they have to with the court.
Just act according to the old Tang law.
Got it, brother.
I will tell our people to follow the rules.
Brother,
did the previous emperor ever mentioned who is going to inherit the throne?
Have our people to do nothing.
So we just wait?
That's what we should do.
What are we waiting for?
Waiting for the empress and the sixth prince to come back to the capital.
What if they can't?
That tells us something went wrong.
Brother, it wakes you up. Try it.
There is one more decision to make, your Majesty.
Spit it out.
The capital is protected by a formation,
do you know that?
The God Startled Formation?
Of course, I do.
The owner of the formation
was Master Yan Se from the Heavenly Dao,
but after Master Yan Se died, the pestle was handed to Ning Que.
And now, everyone is after Ning Que and the pestle is missing.
I worry if someday, the capital is in danger,
I'm afraid that the formation can't start.
♫
Useless!
There's more over there. Keep looking.
Yes.
Hurry.
And over there! Look for it carefully.
Hunyuan, what are you up to now?
Sister, do you know about the pestle of the God Startled Formation?
That is the security of our capital.
Did Father give it to you before he left?
Since you don't have it, I will look for it else where.
Hunyuan! Hunyuan!
The pestle.
Is it in the Academy?
Don't worry too much, your Grace. I've sent three teams
and they've reached the northern camp. According to my calculation,
in two days,
the supplies will arrive Wei.
General Ma,
they started to limit the supplies, right?
That's right.
The soldiers must be down, right?
The soldiers need the supplies the most.
Give my food to them. Even a little helps.
Also mine.
No, we can't do that.
Your health matters the most, your Grace and your Highness.
His Majesty always loved his soldiers like loving his own children.
If his Majesty is still alive, he will definitely do that.
Please rise, general Ma.
I'm only worried about the supplies from the northern camp
will not reach Wei.
A few cities were taken over.
Three cities were taken over and they are targeting at the capital.
Inform the Princess about it immediately.
Ask Tang to support us with calvary.
Cavalry is the best soldiers they have to protect Tang.
I don't know if they would let it.
Whether or not the princess of Tang is going to support us depends on
how close you two are.
Don't worry.
Li Yu will save us.
Long Qing is attacking Yan?
Is he mad?
Long Qing is too ambitious.
The Golden Horde is not enough for him at all.
Also, he is the prince of Yan after all.
He does have the credential to inherit the throne.
But only with Yan's power,
I'm afraid they can't defend themselves against the cavalry from the grassland.
Long Qing has lots of supporters
in Yan.
He didn't encounter much resistance during it.
Prince Chong Ming's situation
is not good.
Princess Chong Ming is Tang's ally.
We can't see him replaced by Long Qing.
What would you like to do, sister?
Among the best four generals of Tang,
Xu Chi and Shu Cheng are not in the capital.
The best out of the four, general Xu Shi
is resting in his hometown due to his old age.
The only one we have
is Xian Chilao.
Xian Chilao?
Is he reliable?
He is the empress's people.
He has 4000 cavalrymen.
That's good.
Since it's the empress's people, just send them.
The further the better.
But...
Pass my order.
Yes.
Send Xian Zhilang to Yan.
Yes.
Hunyuan, the cavalry...
Stop talking.
I've decided. We are sending Xian Zhilang's cavalry to Yan.
I heard that you sent Xian Zhilang
to Yan.
How is it? Isn't it a good way to distract them?
I think
the real threat is not Xian Zhilang.
Who else?
The Great Nation-Stabilizing General, Xu Shi.
I'm not close to the Great Nation- Stabilizing General, Xu Shi.
He is what's been bothering me.
This old man has been around for years, but he just wouldn't submit to me.
With he in the court, I don't know
who the army belongs to.
You are right, your Majesty.
Maybe it's because of his power and his age.
Even the Royal Guard is under his control.
Also, his reputation is very high. No one can touch him.
If he is back to the capital,
I'm afraid that he's going to be a threat.
I can't have him coming back to the capital.
What would you like to do, your Majesty?
I would like to help.
Is there a way for you to contact the Shrine of Xiling?
Why are you trying to talk to Xiling, your Majesty?
Isn't Xu Shi Xiling's problem as well?
You are trying to use Xiling to kill him?
No matter who, as long as he is a threat to my throne,
has to die.
But Xu Shi
is in the military camp. Many good soldiers are with him.
I don't think it's easy.
I will pass a secret order to have him come to the capital as soon as he can.
Thanks for your intelligence,
Tang is going to last very long under your leadership.
Well said.
Shrine Leader, we just received a piece of secret information.
Speak up.
Li Hunyuan wants to use Xiling to kill Xu Shi.
What a stupid emperor.
If the Great Nation-Stabilizing General is killed,
I want to see who is going to help him keep Tang.
Li Hunyuan sent Xu Shi a secret order
to come to the capital. Xu Shi is on his way.
He only has less than twenty soldiers with him, including some of He Mingchi's people.
Xu Shi has to pass by Qing Kou.
Tell Cui Xuan
it's time for Qing He Country to fight Tang.
Yes.
Your Majesty, Xu Shi is on his way.
He is on his way to hell.
The way to hell is the same to everyone.
Death treats them the same.
Your Majesty, is there any information on the pestle?
It's strange.
I've searched all over the palace, and it's nowhere to be found.
It looks like my sister doesn't know about it either.
The pestle is not in the palace.
Maybe it's in the Academy.
That would be difficult.
Report.
Your Majesty, the princess is here.
Hide yourself. Don't let her see us together.
Goodbye.
Sister.
Hunyuan, urgent report from the north.
Long Qing's army is close to Cheng Jing.
This fast?
More than 10 cities have surrendered.
Even the northern camp of Cheng Jing
is leaning towards Long Qing.
Yan has no power to fight them.
What about Xian Zhilang? Are they at Cheng Jing yet?
General Xian Zhilang brought 4000 cavalrymen
planning on an ambush in Cheng Jing.
This trap is prepared for Long Qing.
The day he attacks the city
is the day he die.
I hope Tang's soldiers will come back in victory.
Brother Long Qing is bringing his cavalry and the Golden Horde soldiers
towards Chang Jing.
What are they going to do there?
I'm not sure.
No matter what Long Qing does, he is targeting Tang.
Let's go look.
The pestle is in the Academy.
With General Xian's help, our danger will be gone.
Thank you, General Xian, for the people.
If you want to thank anyone, thank the princess.
Long Qing's army
has broken Cheng Jing.
Long Qing is an egomaniac. It's easy to deal with.
But he doesn't understand one thing.
With the magical sword, one can conquer anything.
How else Tang survived until today?
If the crown prince can feel your confidence,
I'm sure he will be very happy.
Please fire fireworks as the signal.
We will fight them together.
Open the gate.
Father.
-Father. -How is it?
The spies are trying to figure out how many soldiers are in the Golden Horde, which is unclear.
The number is different compare to when they enter.
Where is Long Qing?
The Golden Horde is close to the palace.
Your Majesty.
Your Majesty, I've met general Xian Zhilang.
-Where is Tang's soldier? -They've reached to the predetermined spot.
They are waiting for the signal.
Father.
Fire the fireworks and tell everyone.
Yes.
Remember, working in a team wins everything.
Tonight is the night we make history.
God bless Yan.
Go.
Thank you, Father.
My lord, everything is prepared.
Good.
The curtain is drawn.
This is the first battle against Tang.
Let's kill these
proud Tang people.
I didn't expect the cavalry of the grassland
became a strong army
under Long Qing's training.
But in front of Tang's cavalry,
they will be nothing.
This is battle in the night
is designed for
so-called the best army.
Tang's cavalry.
They say they are the best.
Do they really
always win?
My lord, they have a lot os cavalrymen.
Even powerful cultivators can't fight them.
Don't worry.
No, Yan was ganged up with the Golden Horde and plant a trap here.
Don't tell me this is the first battle against Tang.
Xiling is only working with Yan to fight Tang.
If they are going to fight Tang, the first step is
take away the cavalry.
Stop.
This battle,
we lost to Xiling.
Now that they are going to fight Tang.
Other than trusting our own,
we can't trust anyone.
All of you.
Are you willing to fight?
Yes!
