Under The Power
Episode 21
Look at him, you think he can run away?
Besides, I keep my promise.
I never go back on what I have promised.
Stop talking nonsense.
Draw it, now!
I'd like to but I really don't know how to draw.
Or, you can take my pistol out.
Let me examine the structure of it.
So I can look at it and draw at the same time.
Don't worry.
Now the lives of all three of us
are in your hands.
There is no way we can escape.
Just look.
No touching.
Okay, okay.
Spread your fingers, otherwise I can't see it clearly.
I haven't studied this pistol before.
It has changed.
Done.
Jinxia, go with Lu Yi, hurry!
Your Excellency!
Chase them!
Your Excellency, let's go!
Chase them!
Chase separately!
Yes. Go!
Your Excellency, this way.
This way.
Your Excellency.
Your Excellency, come with me.
Hide here for now.
Your Excellency.
Just hide here.
I'll get them away and come back to you later.
Hide.
Where are they?
Go over there and have a look.
Yes.
Over there!
Go!
That direction!
-Hurry up! -Yes!
He's ahead there.
Quick!
Go!
Hurry!
They've got away. That direction.
Yes!
Go!
Hurry!
Go!
Your Excellency.
Let's go.
Your Excellency.
Let's go.
Hurry up.
You rats want to chase me?
Not a chance to catch up with me!
Run.
Why don't you keep running?
I knew you were heading to an abyss.
I've been waiting for you here for a long time.
Don't be afraid. We'll find a way.
Don't come over.
If you come over here, we'll jump off immediately.
Jump down to be together forever?
What a pity.
Do you want to save Lu Yi?
I do.
Absolutely.
Draw the other half of the pistol.
I'll let you both go.
I've never expected that you're so persistent.
Since you have a special liking for our artillery,
do you want me
to send you into the Firearms Division to learn it?
So you can
serve our Ming Dynasty later.
You still want to
make a deal with me at this moment?
Are you two too full of yourselves?
You're the one who thinks you're right.
Mr. Lu has known your plan.
You never knew that
he can understand your language.
Chief.
We saw someone coming in this direction.
Got it.
Why should I believe you?
This secret technique can fool them by numbing their senses.
Get the drawing, and then kill them.
At that time, he pretended
to be tortured by the poison.
You know Japanese?
The Embroidered Uniform Guard is extraordinary, indeed.
I like this kind of talent the most.
How about this?
I can forgive and forget
what just happened.
You know,
I can find someone to make a pure poison,
and I can certainly find someone to make an antidote.
Then why didn't you say it earlier?
This is my bargaining chip.
Can I just tell you?
Yeah,
you're the leader of Japanese pirates here anyway.
Surely you have your own tricks.
But
what makes you think we'll believe you?
Do you have any other choice?
I'm afraid I'm going to
disappoint you, Mr. Mao.
Jinxia! Jinxia!
Since you want to die so much,
I'll give you a ride.
Your Excellency.
With the weight of both of us,
this vine can't last long.
Or,
or you let me go.
You may be able to get up there with your material art skills.
Either we die together,
or we live together.
We can only take a bet.
Trust me.
Your Excellency, we're still alive.
Are you all right?
Your Excellency, look.
They even got away.
You're...
Mao Haifeng.
Officers and soldiers are coming up the mountain to capture you.
Surrender, quickly!
You're lucky this time.
Retreat!
Jinxia! Jinxia!
I was scared.
Let's go down to find them.
Okay. Go. Go.
Are you tired, rats?
Stop moving around me.
You're making me dizzy.
You!
I was also a gangster before.
You can't
defeat me.
I wonder how Mr. Beggar is doing.
I hope he hasn't been caught again.
Jinxia.
Mr. Beggar.
Are you all right?
Fine.
You looked down on me.
Didn't I tell you?
Fighting six, seven, eight or nine guys
is just a piece of cake to me.
Mr. Beggar, if you're that good,
why didn't you just beat the Japanese pirates' leader?
That would have saved us a lot of energy.
I can deal with those rats.
But to deal with that Mao,
well...
It was fortunate
to get out of danger.
Hold still.
You just used the internal force, didn't you?
Quick. We...
Sit down and rest.
Here.
Remember, from now on,
no matter what happens,
do not use your internal force.
Or else,
even gods can't save you.
Mr. Beggar.
Didn't you say there was an excellent doctor who could cure all poisons?
Let's go find her now.
Go.
What's wrong?
What's wrong, Mr. Beggar?
Jinxia.
Listen.
That doctor has a rule in practicing medicine.
No treatment for officers.
Okay.
Okay?
He wears casual clothes.
We can take off his token.
Who would know he's an officer?
Is, is, isn't that a lie?
Since the doctor has her rule,
we shouldn't force her.
Let's go back.
No.
We'll try it if there's any hope.
Your Excellency, just take a rest. Leave it to me.
Mr. Beggar.
It's not a lie.
Although we don't tell her
we are officials,
we don't say
we aren't.
This is not a lie.
Mr. Beggar.
He is your grandson.
I know.
His life is threatened.
I know that, too.
Your Excellency.
Lu Yi.
Your Excellency, are you all right?
Lu Yi.
Are you okay? Lu Yi.
Mr. Beggar, you see
how he is now.
And you made that poison.
Mr. Beggar, you can't let him suffer like this, Mr. Beggar.
Mr. Beggar, help him, please.
Alright, alright.
Do as you say, okay?
Anyway,
he is my grandson, right?
I can't let him suffer.
Exactly.
But let's make it clear first.
Don't spill the beans.
If she knows I trick her, then...
Rest assured, Mr. Beggar.
You need not to say a word.
If she finds out,
let me shoulder all the responsibilities.
Mr. Beggar.
Are you sure we're going to
find the doctor?
I am.
Although I haven't been here for years,
I can find it with my eyes closed.
But it doesn't look like someone is living there.
That's where a master lives.
Not like a place that everyone can imagine.
Okay.
Mr. Beggar.
How long have you known each other?
It's been
twenty years.
Later, don't tell her
that I brought you here.
Why?
Do you have a grudge?
Because...
It's a long story.
I owed her when I was young.
Later,
I won't see her with you.
I don't want to run into her.
She will pick on me again.
Did you have a romance with her?
Don't talk nonsense.
Be careful, be careful.
Mr. Beggar.
What kind of person is she?
She...
You'll see after you meet her.
Her name is Lin Ling.
You can call her Doctor Lin.
Your Excellency.
It's okay.
What's wrong?
I'm okay.
Snakes!
What should we do? Snakes!
Wait.
These snakes showed up strangely.
Let's not act rashly.
These snakes gather here because of blood.
Don't hurt them.
The more blood,
the more snakes.
So what do we do now?
What to do?
Well,
grab them with hands.
Grab them?
Is there another way?
Your Excellency.
Mr. Mao has arrived.
Your Excellency.
Sit.
This is
the excellent sweet osmanthus wine I have brought
from the capital.
Mr. Mao.
Taste it.
The sweet osmanthus wine
is mellow and sweet.
Not like wine, but better than wine.
It's superior.
You know wine?
So
you are also a wine lover.
I do love wine.
But
I like beauties more.
I heard
your Dragon Confining Well
was destroyed.
Yes.
An Embroidered Uniform Guard and a constable of Department Six suddenly came.
They ruined Blue Hairpin
that I'd worked so hard to grow.
All my plans aborted.
So that's a big loss to you.
Incalculable.
I will
avenge it.
Especially that female constable of Department Six.
She's very mischievous.
She shot me with her pistol.
She's not simple.
A female constable of Department Six?
Greetings, Your Excellency.
That little girl
could hurt someone like Mr. Mao?
Good.
Interesting.
They're no better than me.
That Lu Yi
was poisoned by the pure poison I extracted from Blue Hairpin.
It is impossible to cure this poison.
He won't live on for a few days.
Really?
Let's see if he
can get through this.
Lu Yi, hurry.
Hold this stick.
It'll work for you.
You two, listen.
Go along this path.
After you get through the woods,
you'll reach Lin Ling's Maple Col.
Let's go then.
Let's go.
Well, I...
This is where I leave you.
You two, go.
OK.
Thank you.
Hang on.
Smear it.
There are many poisonous things in the woods.
If they bite you,
you can't stand it.
What kind of powder is this?
Lime and realgar powder.
Does it really work?
You'll never know without a try.
Like,
like this?
Yes, yes.
Come on, Your Excellency.
That's enough.
Do you have a crush on my grandson?
You're trying to take advantage by touching him?
Don't touch around.
I'm sorry!
Why are you smiling?
I'm not trying to take advantage of you.
I just,
I want to apply this powder on you evenly.
I didn't say you want to take advantage of me.
What are you nervous about?
Besides,
don't you always do that?
Alright, go, you two.
Remember,
when you find the doctor,
you must be prudent and low-key.
She doesn't like people who talk a lot.
You, especially.
Don't worry.
Catering to others' pleasure is my strong point.
See you.
Lanye.
Go.
Fill Mr. Mao's cup.
Yes.
I don't like people touching my things.
But I like giving things to people.
Of course.
No one dares touch your things, Your Excellency.
I heard that
Liao Wenhua took the job
as the Censor-in-chief of the Southeast.
He is your man.
It will be convenient for us
to do any business in the future.
What materials and documents
do you need about Japanese?
Give me a list.
I'll provide everything you need.
I never fall behind
in business that can make money.
Doing business with Your Excellency
is secure.
I feel at ease.
Come on.
Wish our business
going well.
Pour wine.
It's beautiful here, Your Excellency.
Like a fairyland.
Your Excellency, Your Excellency.
So many snakes.
Don't worry.
We've got lime on us.
As long as we don't touch them,
we'll be fine.
Okay.
Snake!
Your Excellency!
Snake.
It turns out that our fearless Constable Yuan
is afraid of snakes?
I have been afraid of snakes since childhood.
I'm just afraid of snakes.
Can't I?
You can.
We don't know if we'll step on
another snake on the way.
Do you need me to
carry you on my back?
No, that won't do, Your Excellency.
I suddenly feel less afraid.
I'm not afraid.
Now you're not afraid?
Not afraid.
Let's go.
Your Excellency.
It is not surprising that
there are many snakes in the wild mountains,
but there are so many kinds of them,
so it's suspicious.
If I guess it right,
I think someone
put these snakes in captivity on purpose.
Your Excellency, look.
There's a log cabin over there.
That must be where the doctor lives.
That doctor has a rule in practicing medicine.
No treatment for officers.
Mr. Beggar said the doctor doesn't treat officers.
You'd better give me your token.
Your Excellency.
He's been sent away.
I'm sure that no one's seen him.
Your Excellency.
This Mao Haifeng,
is he reliable?
Mao Haifeng took over
a place, the chief of which had been
eliminated by the Ming court.
His force
is growing stronger and stronger.
Because of this,
there is no problem in working with him.
I don't think
he is a talented one.
About his personality,
I have my own plan.
If he is not loyal to me,
I'll be the first one to know.
That's good then.
Mao Haifeng is a Japanese pirate.
We should be careful with him.
Ah right, Your Excellency.
Just now he said that Lu Yi had been severely poisoned
and would die soon.
What do you think?
None of my business.
Doctor.
Great.
Please help him.
We specially came here to ask for your help.
How did you get here?
We heard that there is an excellent doctor in Maple Col.
So we decided to take a chance.
There is no doctor here.
There are all kinds of herbs here,
and you have a smell of herbs.
If I guess right,
you're the doctor.
Doctor.
I'm begging you.
Please save him.
If you don't save him,
no one can.
What's your relationship with him?
I'm his maid.
Tell me the truth.
It's true.
You'd better find someone else.
Doctor.
I will tell you.
I'll tell you the truth.
I really am his maid.
But then he took a fancy to me.
So we...did it...
He took a fancy to you?
Actually he didn't really like me at first.
I tried my best to seduce him.
He couldn't hold it,
so he agreed.
Then we came to this place south of the Yangtze River.
But the fate
isn't in favor of our love,
and brought misfortune to us.
Considering the gap in our family backgrounds,
his father disagreed,
and chased us all the way with a hound.
A hound?
You know, the dog has a good sense of smell.
It followed us anywhere we went.
We had a hard time getting away all the way.
We finally arrived in this place south of the Yangtze River.
But we were robbed.
Now he was severely poisoned.
He and I have been pledged to marriage without permission of his parents.
I'm his wife now.
In this life,
I will marry nobody but him.
Doctor.
Please.
Save him.
If he dies,
I'll die with him.
We'll die together.
Doctor.
Please forgive my wife.
When did he get hurt?
About seven days ago.
Did he take any medicine?
Violet Antidote.
Officers.
No more acting.
Just now when you were in the woods,
you gunned down
several of my snakes.
Only officers can have this kind of firearm.
Secondly,
what is the Violet Antidote?
This is not some medicine
you can buy on the market.
Tell me the truth.
Who are you?
So you knew everything right from the start.
You're still here acting.
Save him or not?
I won't save officers.
This is my rule.
Since it's a rule,
it can't be changed easily.
If you don't save him,
I'll kill you.
If you're willing to trade a life for another life,
if you die and let he live,
I may consider saving him.
How can you guarantee that
when I die, you won't back out?
You can choose not to believe me,
and you can kill me.
With such a good-looking guy to accompany me to die,
I say it's a good deal.
Jinxia!
I owe you my life
because you saved me so many times.
I can't just let you die.
But remember,
after I die, take care of my mother,
master, and Yue.
And
on the Qingming Festival,
burn me some piles of paper money,
light ten incense sticks,
and put an offering for me in the temple.
Then
I can die
in peace.
Doctor.
I need nobody
to exchange for my life.
If you're really willing to trade your life for his,
I will save him.
A promise is a promise.
Your Excellency.
If he hadn't taken the Violet Antidote,
I could have 70% of confidence in saving him.
Now the two poisons are in his body,
and it's not easy
to cure him.
Anyway, that's already the case.
Make every possible effort then.
Doctor, please save him.
Come with me.
Thank you.
Your Excellency.
Come on.
Where to go?
If the mark is correct,
it should be in that direction.
Go.
Let's go.
Thank you for saving his life.
Nothing is enough to pay you back
for your great kindness.
If you want anything,
just tell me
and I'll finish it right away.
I've suppressed the poison in him.
But I didn't promise
to detoxify him.
Doctor.
To save one life is better than to build a seven-story pagoda.
Although you hate officers,
I'm sure you'll
save the patient
when he's in front of you.
Right?
Maybe not.
Doctor!
Constable Yuan.
Don't waste your energy.
Take a rest.
Your Excellency.
Look at the situation now.
How can you still be so calm?
I don't believe I'm a short-lived person.
Doctor!
Good morning, doctor!
Let's eat.
I guessed
you must prefer
a light-flavored meal in the morning.
So I picked all these vegetables
from your yard.
Very clean and fresh. Eat them, please.
Especially this sweet potato porridge.
I started cooking it before dawn
and didn't stop until just now.
It's thick and sweet.
It can definitely nourish the stomach.
Sit down, please.
Taste them.
What is this?
Mushroom.
Usually, I can cook some vegetables,
but as for other dishes,
sometimes I can't do it well
in timing and heating.
Don't mind it, okay?
Never mind.
Don't eat this.
I will eat it, I will.
Eat this.
I'll see if he's awake.
Enjoy your meal.
He's burning.
His illness is getting worse and worse.
Don't go.
Your Excellency.
I'm not going.
Is he dreaming of his sweetheart?
If he really died because of this
and couldn't return to the capital,
I would commit a terrible sin.
No.
I must find a way to move the doctor,
and persuade her to save him.
