Sword Dynasty

Episode 10

Is Feng Qianzhuo really so important that

he deserves Your Majesty's protection?

He's merely a chess piece

placed in that position.

I gave him calligraphy and paintings

to make him feel favored

by the royal court,

so that he would work hard for the royal court.

He indulges himself in wine and women,

which means he wouldn't end up well.

But the fuss Xue Wangxu made this time

gave me a rather decent reason

to do something I want.

Greetings, Your Excellency Prime Minister.

You know me?

Your Excellency's clothing style

is not for a Shendu Bureau official,

and Mr. Mo respects you so much

that he doesn't even go onto the same step where you stand,

so I betted on a high rank.

If it's really the prime minister who summons me,

I'm really lucky.

You're really as clever as in the hearsay.

Thank you, Your Excellency.

Last time,

your aunt said

that she was a little homesick

as she had stayed in Fengming for too long.

Now since your hometown has a good rice harvest,

do you ever want to go back and have a look?

I'm afraid Your Excellency has mistaken it.

Rice is never grown in my hometown.

But I've heard that

this year's corn crop is not particularly good.

I did misremember it.

On that rainy night when Song Shenshu died,

where were you instead of staying in the tavern?

Hi.

Ding Ning!

Ding Ning,

you have come to see me.

There's going to be a storm.

Why did you come?

The storm is coming,

so I worry about your house

and came to have a look.

It rained heavily that day,

and I went to the house of an old lady at the fish market.

Her house often leaked,

so I went to fix it for her.

The old lady of which family?

An old lady of no family who sold ink paste in the fish market.

It's true.

If Your Excellency has finished it,

may I go home now?

I'm afraid

you need to stay a little longer.

Get up.

What crime have I committed?

He came back so early?

Miss Zhangsun,

Ding Ning was taken away by men from the Shendu Bureau.

The Shendu Bureau?

Yes.

Here is our deal.

From now on, when either of us get caught,

the other one

should use Moshi Swordsmanship to kill a traitor

so as to clear the other one from suspicion.

Nangong Shang!

Greetings, Your Majesty.

What's the matter you need to present, Mr. Xue?

In order to

take back a treasure of Baiyang Cave,

I rushed into Ba Prefecture

and disturbed the people there who were appreciating your calligraphy and paintings.

So I came today to take the punishment.

That's all?

And because I didn't teach my disciple well,

he wounded the eldest grandson of the Feng family

and crippled him.

I have no excuse for what we've done.

So, I'm willing to give up my own skills.

Wait.

Your skills

are for serving the Kingdom of Heng.

How can you waste it at will?

Use them where they're needed.

I know.

For taking back the Beauty-locking Elixir,

Ding Ning

committed a crime that can't be forgiven.

I'm afraid the Shendu Bureau has arrested him

for this reason.

The whole world knows

that skills are not easy to acquire.

At my age,

I have no other desire

than the safety of my disciple.

Who on earth is this Ding Ning?

Is he worth it?

He is a rare genius in the world

and the hope of Baiyang Cave.

If you had been a master,

I'm sure you would understand

that when you encounter a genius,

you'll be like me,

helping him in any way you can.

Rise.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

For a practitioner like you,

your skills should be more important than your life.

Since you want to give up your skills now,

then what are you keeping your life for?

I'd like to watch the Minshan Swordsmanship Tournament next year.

Please approve it, Your Majesty.

Please go back.

I've already looked into this Ding Ning.

There are some questionable points,

but they're not enough to prove

he is the disciple of That Man.

Are you going to

let him go?

I might as well be frank with you.

Considering the investigation I have conducted today,

Ding Ning is just

an ordinary tavern boy.

You can't release him.

The evidence might not be enough,

but no one can guarantee

that he isn't the disciple.

This concerns

the safety of all the eleven marquises of Heng.

It's better to kill a wrong person

than releasing the right one by mistake.

Even His Majesty doesn't care about the disciple,

so why should you care about it so much?

The disciple case is still a mystery.

The public panic

we mentioned on the court that day

is serious.

Killing a young tavern boy can appease all the people

and relieve the eleven marquises' concerns.

Please, do it for us, Prime Minister.

You always do the right things.

Fengming is so big

that you have your place in it.

I can grant your request,

but you have to do something for me.

Please tell me.

I can save Ding Ning for your sake,

but

you have to teach Liang Lian a lesson for me.

What kind of a lesson?

I ask you to do it

because you've reached the seventh realm.

I see.

Now leave.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Nangong Shang!

Traitor to the Bashan Sword Field.

You are also a remnant of the Bashan Sword Field?

It seems I'm not the only disciple of Bashan

who wants to kill you.

I don't know you.

Why do you stand in my way?

Are you in a hurry?

In a hurry to go back to

bleed the hearts of children for your elixirs?

How do you know that?

To live on the blood of the hearts of children for immortality,

you're really unworthy to be a human being.

The Ninth-hell Dark Lord Sword?

This sword

is impossible to be turned into a natal sword.

It's a very powerful magic array,

but the primordial qi of the heaven and the earth cannot come in.

Both you and I are at the sixth realm.

I won't lose to you.

Moshi Swordsmanship?

Who the hell are you?

Why do you want to kill me?

In order to feed the sword,

to help innocent children,

and to save my family.

Father,

you can't kill Ding Ning.

Who is Ding Ning?

Ding Ning,

is the disciple of Qingteng Baiyang Cave,

who got to know the truth of mystery in half a day

and successfully refined his qi in ten days.

But now, in the eastern suburbs of Fengming,

another dead body was found,

whose name was Nangong Shang.

He died of Moshi Swordsmanship.

It means he's not the murderer.

You rushed here to tell me this.

Do you have evidence?

The disciple of That Man deserves to be put to death.

But now Ding Ning has been

locked up in prison,

meanwhile the disciple of That Man committed another crime in Fengming.

It means that

he is not the disciple of That Man.

I...

I don't want Heng to lose a talented person who can support the kingdom.

Have you ever thought that

there could be more than one disciple?

More than one?

Cherishing talented people without knowing and using them correctly--

that's a great mistake of a governor.

Come.

Learn more and observe more from your mother,

and see how she handles it.

I got it.

Go.

Am I going to die?

Release him.

Yes.

Hey, don't be mad.

Slow down, slow down.

Don't get tripped, okay?

Please, I'm an adult.

Can't you just have a little faith in me?

Hey!

Oh, slow down!

I'm fine, right?

I'm warning you.

I went through a lot of hardship to raise you.

If you have a death wish,

I can kill you myself,

so you won't dishonor your master.

As his disciple,

you're not supposed to die young.

You should kill your enemies before you die.

I, I'm sorry.

Thank you for remembering our deal.

After I was caught by the official,

you used Moshi Swordsmanship

to kill a traitor

to clear me from suspicion.

All right.

You've survived a disaster.

Go and have a good bath.

Wash the bad luck away.

Show us your prison order tablet!

On the orders of Director Chen,

I'm going into the water dungeon

to interrogate a felon.

Why is the water dungeon unguarded?

How unexpected

that you would plot treason!

Since you're here,

then let's make things clear before you go.

What else do you want to say now?

If you're to save your fellow disciple,

I advise you to leave at once.

If the superiors know,

you will die a miserable death.

You really thought I came back

to serve Yuan Wu this time?

You used to be so forthright,

but now you are enduring so much humiliation.

I'm warning you.

Bashan has been destroyed.

His Majesty has reached the eighth realm.

All your fights will be in vain.

Stop wasting your breath!

Without my master,

I wouldn't have been who I am.

Master!

Your master has been dead for ten years.

Your persistence

won't get you anywhere.

I just can't let go.

Master had been loyal to Heng all his life,

but in the end,

no one shall even mention his name.

The safety and stability of Heng in so many years

are achieved with the blood of him and the disciples of Bashan.

But now who remembers this?

Tell me

who the one

locked up here is.

Lin Zhujiu.

You're so early today.

Where are you going?

To the Tiger and Wolf Army's camp.

To visit whom?

General Liang Lian.

Is it

predestined?

I'm not being hasty,

but the time has really come.

What's the matter?

Is it her intention?

Or is it the condition to save me?

I'm looking forward to

your performance at the Minshan Swordsmanship Tournament.

If you can really become the top winner,

we will be much honored.

I don't care about how much longer I can still live,

but I care about my name.

Because of this,

I went to see her

to find out what she wanted.

She didn't want you to know

that this is her arrangement,

because she said

that if you hate anyone

in the court,

it will do no good to your future development

in Fengming.

But I also know that

you're so smart.

Even if I don't tell you,

you will figure it out anyway.

Whatever her reasons are

for hating Liang Lian,

if Liang Lian is only

a sixth-realm practitioner,

she doesn't need all the trouble.

So Liang Lian

must have reached the seventh realm.

You will get killed.

She just wants me to watch you die,

so that even if I'm going to hate someone,

I'm supposed to hate Liang Lian only.

Hatred between subjects

doesn't have any impact on her.

She was also reminding me that

no matter how smart I am,

under their noses,

my life and death

is not a matter up to myself.

Still, you're so smart.

On the knowledge of politics,

everyone in Fengming

can't understand it

as well as you do.

If you really understand it,

you should pretend that

you haven't seen any of this.

Even if you have the slightest grudge

against her and the court,

you still have to act like you haven't seen it

or at least show

you submission to them.

Now she and Yuan Wu

have absolutely no concern on

whether the practitioners of Heng

have their own thoughts.

They only care about

whether the practitioners will obey or not.

A powerful kingdom

always sacrifices the interests and ideas of some people,

and the practitioners

are just a small fraction of people.

It's great you understand it.

Despite her ruthless measures,

she has still given me mercy

and allowed me to watch the Minshan Swordsmanship Tournament.

Just for this,

I should be grateful to her.

You're right.

General Liang,

hope that you're well.

Mr. Xue,

what's your business that's worth coming all the way here?

I'm here

to have a duel with you.

Have a duel with me?

General,

Xue Wangxu

visited Her Majesty in the palace yesterday.

Good.

I accept your challenge.

This is the most powerful move in the Scripture of the Cofferdam Sword:

The Dyke Breach Sword.

Yeah.

The more momentum it builds up, the more powerful it becomes.

At the moment of the breach,

the sword momentum will burst out.

General Liang Lian really is

a battle-hardened warrior.

He actually dares to use such sword momentum

to fight Mr. Xue.

It looks like

Mr. Xue is forced to fight back.

Wonderful!

Really fantastic!

It's over.

The Infinity Blade Posture!

In terms of youth and strength,

mine are not as good as yours,

but when it comes to the understanding of the scripture,

I'm doing better than you.

So,

I won in the end.

Master!

Let's go.

General!

General!

Are you okay?

Hang in there.

General!

Are you okay?

Xue Wangxu's last move

was already above his level of practice in the seven realm,

but unfortunately…

Who on earth is

this Ding Ning?

Great!

I've personally defeated the general of the northern Tiger and Wolf Army.

Today,

I've really got an honor.

It's great you're happy.

Xue Wangxu fought

really amazingly today.

His disciple is outstanding too.

Yeah.

Ding Ning is indeed gifted.

I also want him to keep his nose clean

and serve Heng.

On the contrary,

while at his peak,

Liang Lian can't even handle an old man.

As brave and clever as he is,

he doesn't know how to couple hardness with softness.

Tell him that

if he still puts his mind on something else

and causes trouble,

I'll have to send him outside the Pass for retirement.

Yes.

Master!

I've finally tasted

how it feels to be so old.

I love this taste.

This kind of taste

is very fresh.

In my life,

since I can feel this taste in the end

rather than dying in a battle,

my life

is more complete.

But starting from now,

until the Minshan Swordsmanship Tournament,

I can't be your support anymore.

It's okay.

From now on,

I will have a bigger support.

Before the Minshan Swordsmanship Tournament,

no one will dare to disturb me.

I don't know what you mean.

You want to watch the Minshan Swordsmanship Tournament,

and since Her Majesty has consented,

she will see to it.

She needs everyone to know that

she means what she says.

Her Majesty's consent

is not only for you but also for me.

Unless I get myself killed,

before the Minshan Swordsmanship Tournament,

I will be safe and sound.

Her Majesty

is now my biggest support.

You are more foresighted

than me.

You got a carriage.

There was no carriage when we came here.

But on the way back,

we do need one.

In the future,

even if you can't become the strongest practitioner,

you will still become

one of the best advisers.

Master,

I have a few words

that I have to tell you here.

Master,

hereby I swear by this sword that

I will use this sword in my hand

to slay all those who wasted your skills.

In fact, you don't have to blame yourself.

I did all this for you

because you are

the pride of Baiyang Cave.

For all your kindness, Master,

in the days to come,

I will greatly honor you, an old guy.

You brat!

Why did you push Xue Wangxu that hard, Ye Zhen?

You think I've done wrong?

Xue Wangxu

is one of Fengming's

rare masters that have reached the seventh realm.

What you've done

will hurt Heng in the end.

Your Majesty,

what's the big deal of it?

Xue Wangxu

has really been over the line recently.

I just gave him a lesson

to warn the other practitioners in Fengming.

All I want to do is help Your Majesty.

Have I done wrong?

What you've done

is exactly what I want.

It looks like

I was wrong.

Director Xu will set sail tomorrow

and bring back the elixir

to help you advance to the ninth realm.

Then,

you will become immortal,

which will realize my wish,

and

I'll have no regret in this lifetime.

Remember.

If I live forever,

my queen,

so will you.

Your Majesty.

Your Majesty's skills

seem to have improved a lot.

What a pity!

What a pity!

What a pity I still haven't reached the eighth realm!

All these clichés of yours

are really boring.

It's been too long.

I've run out of my jokes.

How about you let me out,

so I can find something new

and then come back to tell you?

OK,

as long as you give me the Gushan Sword Manual.

Cliché!

You're boring too.

Then I'll say something interesting.

Liang Jingmeng's disciple is back.

He killed Marquis Dugu

with Moshi Swordsmanship.

This joke is new.

But it's not funny.
