The Long Ballad

Episode 39

Sun.

Sun.

It seems the drug isn’t strong enough.

From now on, increase the dosage.

Yes.

Let our men in Mobei check carefully.

He must see Ashile Sun’s dead body himself.

Mimi Guli didn’t even ruin the gromwell.

I don’t believe she’d kill A’Sun on her own.

Please be assured, Princess.

I’ll do as you told me.

By the way,

I heard that Buzhen gets along quite well with Prince of Sui.

They’re at similar ages.

Prince of Sui indeed likes him.

As long as he’s under our control,

she’s still useful.

Young Khan, we’re sure that except for Mu Jin,

among Bear Division and Eagle Division, no one else is alive.

Why?

Ashile Sun is so experienced in wars,

he has been through a lot.

How can it be?

A’Sun,

I haven’t even drunk with you happily.

I though I’d be very happy when you are dead.

But somehow, I’m not happy at all.

You’re the opponent I appreciate most.

I haven’t proved to you that I won’t be defeated by you.

Ashile Sun!

You’re such a jerk!

So you want me to lose to you forever.

When you were alive, you’d been quite annoying.

Now you’re dead. And you still make me suffer.

Do you believe that Ashile Sun has died?

He’s the God of War here.

How could he die?

She’er.

You’re drunk.

Uncle Khan.

It must be Uncle Khan.

If he hadn’t allowed it,

how could Tu Kashe have done it?

He wouldn’t dare do so.

No one dare kill A’Sun.

I can even imagine that

on the battlefield of the desert,

the soldiers from the desert were waiting for him,

and Tu Kashe was following him.

They all wanted to kill A’Sun.

Everyone has his own fate.

Stop guessing at your will.

For what you said, if someone sly heard about that,

your Uncle Khan would be angry.

It wouldn’t be good to Wolf Division.

Angry?

A’Sun is already dead.

Can’t I talk about the truth?

Before,

I’ve been eager to defeat A’Sun.

Now Eagle Division is gone.

Even if Wolf Division becomes the king here,

is it meaningful?

Of course it’s meaningful.

You’re the really king of Ashile Tribe.

You should have been the leader here.

Ashile Sun died.

You should feel happy for that.

You can’t let your mother down.

She’er.

Ashile Sun,

you even won my son’s heart.

I belittled your ability.

Where is he? Did you catch him?

He’s dead.

Who released the arrow?

Our men surrounded him.

When he realized that he couldn’t escape,
he killed himself.

Where’s his body?

It’s outside.

We’ve searched him thoroughly,
there isn’t anything useful.

It’s Ashile Tribe that wanted him to die.

It’s his fellow that wanted to kill Ashile Sun.

It’s Khan’s Tent.

If they dare hurt Sun again,

I’ll definitely let them pay in ten times.

I want to request one more thing from you.

Go ahead.

Since they sent the spy here,
they must want to see the dead body.

Can you burn the battlefield, so that there will be no trace?

Under such a sad situation, you can still be so thoughtful.

Incredible.

Don’t worry. I’ll handle that.

How is he?

I’ve done everything I can.

But whether he can survive until tomorrow...

Anyway, you’d better get prepared.

Thanks a lot.

I want to take good care of him.

Let’s go.

♪ My heart gradually responds, gradually revives ♪

A’Sun,

you can hear me, right?

♪ Gradually swims towards you ♪

I’ve let Pusa help the men of Eagle Division settle down.

When you wake up,

let’s leave here together.

We can go to a place where there’s no war.

There would be many plants

and many herds of cattle and sheep.

I heard that when we walk a little more toward north,

there would be a very beautiful snow mountain.

Can you accompany me to visit there, okay?

♪ A longing flowing like water ♪

♪ There is always a moment ♪

♪ Which burns down the wastelands in my heart ♪

I remember when we first met,

at that time,

I lost all my family,

but I occasionally became friends with A’Zhun.

Surname is Qin. Name is Zhun.

You can call me A’Zhun.

No matter if it’s wind or storm, or swords or arrows,

I, Ashile Sun, would fend against it.

That was my saddest period in my life,

but you showed up.

Now it’s also your worst moment.

I will definitely not leave you.

We’ve been through so much in life and death.

And we can also face those together in the future.

Am I right?

♪ Slowly in time ♪

♪ We keep wandering for our next encounter ♪

Actually I really hate you.

♪ Listening to your breath ♪

You’re too arrogant.

And you don’t know taking care of yourself.

But I just can’t leave you.

Wasn’t it you that told me

I should spend my whole life to pay you back?

I promise.

I won’t leave you in my life.

But you have to give me a chance.

Please wake up.

A’Sun.

Please wake up, okay?

♪ Meet each other in different time ♪

♪ Encourage each other in different worlds ♪

♪ My longings become a cocoon ♪

I’ll accompany you.

Please wake up.

There are a lot of things we haven’t done together.

There are many places we haven’t visited together.

Don’t leave me alone.

♪ It is sleepless ♪

I didn’t expect things would be like this.

That’s all about what happened to Sun and Changge in Mobei.

You should join them first.

Eagle Division is gone.

It might not be safe for you to stay here.

What about you?

Why do you stay?

Great Khan is ill.

And Khan’s Tent is moving.

I’ve looked into it.

Khan’t Tent is moving to Dingxiang.

I have to go there.

I still have something unfinished.

What’s that?

Since we’re all on the same side,

We, Yanxing Sect, won’t leave you alone.

It’s not convenient for you to follow.

Please tell Sun all about it.

What’s more,

Yaro is dead.

I’ve secretly been to the prison of Khan’s Tent.

And I didn’t find Yaro there.

The soldier guarding the prison there told me,

that Yaro was killed

the night when he arrived Khan’s Tent.

Nowadays, Khan’s Tent isn’t the same as before.

You said that Khan’s Tent is moving to Dingxiang.

So there’s someone from Sui in your Ashile Tribe?

That’s Khatun.

Interesting.

That’s your Ashile Tribe’s business,
I’d better not interfere.

I only follow Young Master’s order.

Thank you, Senior Qin.

In the future, you must be extra careful.

And... if you meet Mimi, please tell her...

to live a good life.

Young man, I think...

she must wish you can tell her yourself.

Xu Feng, tell our men that we’ll wait for Young Master’s order here.

Besides, send a letter to Mobei.

Yes.

Young man, take care.

Farewell.

A’Sun, you finally woke up.

You’re really awake.

I knew that you wouldn’t leave me alone.

You’re awake. It’s true.

Are you really won’t ever leave me again in this lifetime?

You heard that.

If I can hear your sincere words,

it’s worthwhile even if I get ten more shots.

Stop talking nonsense.

Do you know how worried I was about you last night?

I was afraid that you might

that you’ll really die.

I also thought I’d die,

but I heard you calling my name.

Then I came back from the God of Sirius.

I also heard that

you wanted to get revenge for me.

I’m really happy about that.

Changge,

the moment when I got shot, I thought about nothing

except for taking you home.

Changge, I...

Tegin Sun, you’re awake!

There’s no Tegin Sun anymore.

Just call me A’Sun.

Well, I’ll tell them the good news.

They’ve been worrying for a whole night.

Move. Fast.

Careful. Don’t get it broken.

Keep moving.

There’s another box.

Keep following.

Careful.

Give me a hand. Put it here.

Don’t break it.

Keep moving.

It’s ready here. Come.

Here. Give me a hand.

Careful. Gently.

Gently. Put it here.

Too loud! Shut up!

Young Khan.

What’s going on?

Great Khan orders that capital is moving to Dingxiang.

And we start moving now.

Your Uncle Khan is seriously ill.

He can’t continue working.

From now on maybe this Great Seal, Khan’s Tent

and the whole area here will be controlled by you.

You’re the really king of Ashile Tribe.

You should have been the leader here.

It’s Mother.

Uncle Khan is ill.

Ashile Sun and Tu Kashe both died.

There’s only me in capital.

Is that a coincidence or Mother’s plan?

Tuluk, what do you think?

You can finally meet your mother.

That’s a good thing.

What’s wrong?

The spy we sent to Mobei... died.

He died?

He might be found out by soldiers of Mobei.

Useless.

So no one saw Ashile Sun’s body by himself.

Yes.

What’s more,

we didn’t find Tu Kashe’s body, either.

Mobei defeated Ashile Tribe for the first time.

They burned up the battlefield to celebrate. So...

Okay, I know.

You can leave here.

Yes.

I told you.

A wolf on the grasslands has nine lives.

He wouldn’t die so easily.

Let’s get to the point.

Ashile Sun,

I know that you’re a true man.

I’ll say it directly.

The man trying to kill you was from Ashile Tribe.

No need to have attachment.

As long as you work for me with Eagle Division,

I can promise that

Mobei will treat you quite well.

Thank you, King of Mobei.

But I led the Eagle Division in pretending to be dead.

I didn’t do it to let my men work for someone else.

Except for Mobei, where else can you go?

It doesn’t matter.

Even if I got exiled,

it’d be better than always keeping fighting and risking my life.

You’re quite good at leading troops.

It’s a pity that you don’t use it.

How about coming to Monan?

Eagle Division wouldn’t fight for anyone.

Now that we’ve talked things out,

I’d also like to say something.

Go ahead.

In my opinion, even if Yanli Khan was quite worried about Eagle Division’s power,

he wouldn’t kill A’Sun.

And the truth...

Dingxiang.

It must have something to do with Dingxiang.

You also found that out.

Right.

No matter how much Father Khan hates me,

he wouldn’t remove such a powerful tool.

But if it were that person,

she couldn’t know it better

that Eagle Division won’t work for her.

Now all the tribes here have betrayed her.

Princess Yicheng’s wish won’t come true.

But I believe that she won’t give up easily.

I’m afraid that more and more people in Ashile Tribe believe her lies

and blindly join the war.

At present, if we want peaceful days, there’s only one way.

We should ally with Great Tang.

Ally with Great Tang?

Forming an alliance with Great Tang,
it allows the third party to interfere.

At that time, if Yicheng wants to launch a war again,

she would hesitate.

But what if she doesn’t stop?

I can’t allow Great Tang to attack Ashile Tribe.

I also don’t want to see it happen,

but we have to do our best.

Only when three parties hinder each other can this war not begin.

Changge, you thought about it too simply.

It’s not an easy thing, but if we don’t try our best,

we’d lose the last chance.

This is the letter I received this morning from Senior Qin.

It includes some messages from Mu Jin.

Yaro died.

Father Khan is also seriously ill.

Khan’s Tent...

Khan’s Tent is moving to Dingxiang.

Right.

If I guess correctly,

Yicheng is getting more control over the capital.

Since Khan’s Tent moves to Dingxiang,

once Yicheng completely controls the whole Ashile Tribe,

her next move is to attack Great Tang.

In other words, you came to meet us for Great Tang?

No.

I’m for all innocent people suffering from wars.

Whether for people in the desert, in Ashile Tribe, or in Great Tang,

they’re merely innocent people.

They shouldn’t sacrifice for being controlled due to those people’s desire.

We all should take the responsbility.

I thought you had a brilliant idea.

Ally with Great Tang?

Remember.

We were all enemies of Great Tang.

Right.

If we ally with Great Tang,

no one can make sure it won’t be the second Ashile Tribe.

It won’t.

About what’s happening now, only Great Tang can help with that.

From what I know about Li Shimin,

Great Tang will never be the second Ashile Tribe.

Let Great Tang hinder Ashile Tribe.

Then the desert can withdraw without getting hurt.

There is no better strategy.

Besides, you ally with many parts to be against Ashile Tribe.

How can you give up such a strong ally?

Wait. Wait a second.

We kept discussing it, but there’s a question.

Why would Great Tang ally with us?

In a few days,

we might get the news.

A’Sun. Yaro, he...

Yaro died for the whole Eagle Division.

Don’t blame yourself too much.

Changge,

Father Khan wouldn’t kill Yaro.

I know.

Father Khan was so strong.

He wouldn’t fall ill easily.

A’Sun.

I know what you’re thinking about.

If it were not for the whole scheme...

If it were not for the whole scheme...

you’d definitely lead Eagle Division to Khan’s Tent,

revenging for Yaro and saving your father.

Right.

As the Tegin of Eagle Division, I failed to protect Yaro.

As the son,

I shouldn’t have let Yicheng hurt my father.

I know we’re all waiting for a good timing.

But don’t worry.

Yicheng won’t kill Great Khan,

since the whole Ashile Tribe still needs him to lead.

I’m so confused right now.

Don’t.

I’m with you.

A’Sun.

I’ll save your father with you,

and revenge for Yaro and the whole Eagle Division.

Leader, the Envoy of Great Tang asked to meet you.

I know. You can leave.

Yes.

Great Tang? So fast.

Li Changge hid something from us.

Let me meet this envoy.

Will you stay here or hide?

Cut the crap.

Send the Envoy of Great Tang here.

Greetings to King of Mobei.

I’m Wei Shuyu, the Envoy of Great Tang.

The imperial court knew that Ashile Tribe was recruiting in the desert.

His Majesty sent me here to invite leaders of each tribe

to having a meeting in Chang’an to discuss forming an alliance.

Thanks for coming here from so far, Envoy Wei.

We’d better carefully discuss about it.

Take the time.

Changge?

Wei Shuyu?

Why are you here?

Changge, why are you in Mobei?

Since we met last time in Liuyun Taoist Temple,

Leyan and I were very worried about you.

What about Leyan?

How is she?

Princess is fine.

She observes farming on her own and cares for ordinary people.

She’s quite different from before.

After all, she’s suffered a lot.

But that’s a good thing.

Since the Princess of Tang needs to grow up.

You’re also Princess of Tang.

You’ve also grown up.

Shuyu, tell me about Li Shimin...

Tell me why you’re here.

His Majesty received a cryptogram.

After reading that, His Majesty sent me here

to discuss about forming alliance.

That cryptogram was written in the name of Shuozhou.

Changge, was that you?

Yes, that’s me.

I didn’t expect that you’re still caring about Great Tang.

After all, Great Tang is my hometown.

Is he... your friend?

Right. He’s my friend A’Sun.

A’Sun, come here.

Let me introduce my friend from Great Tang, Wei Shuyu.

You friend doesn’t seem to like me.

He’s just like that.

Don’t mind.

It’s okay.

This man A’Sun...

A’Sun?

Is he Ashile Sun?

Yes.

He’s Ashile Sun of Eagle Division.

I got a cryptogram,

saying that Eagle Division and Bear Division all died

in the war of Mobei.

Why is he still alive?

That’s a long story.

About the news that A’Sun’s still alive,
please keep it a secret.

We’d form alliance soon.

We don’t want to cause additional trouble.

No problem.

But Changge, if you take me as your friend, please listen to me

that he’s not a kind person, and you’d better stay away from him.

Wei Shuyu, I know you said that for me.

But about this, I know what I’m doing.

Don’t worry.

Since so,

it’d be useless even if I say more things.

Changge, I still have official business.

I have to go.

Envoy Wei and I met each other.

Two leaders must have many questions about that.

Then tell us by yourself.

I was from Eastern Palace.

The present emperor killed my whole family.

I was on the run and met Ashile Sun.

Then we became friends.

Therefore, I’m not only an old friend of Envoy Wei,

but also the military counselor of Eagle Division.

Interesting.

And Great Tang won’t kill you now?

Otherwise how can I meet two leaders now?

I believe in what you said for now.

We can’t lose a strong ally.

But...

who should I send to Chang’an?

I want to know your thought.

If two leaders trust me,

I’d like to be the envoy of the desert

and have the meeting in Chang’an.

You?

It was also me that negotiated with other tribes about an alliance.

So they should trust me more or less.

Please be assured, two leaders.

I’ll try to get more interest for the desert.

You’re not from here.

Why do you care so much about the alliance?

I hope the war can end as soon as possible,

whether in Central Plains, grasslands or the desert.

And people won’t suffer from starvation or separation.

That’s all?

Isn’t it sufficient?

What status do you want?

Can I choose at my will?

Tell me first.

I want to go there as the Mobei Princess.

That means your little sister.

What do you think?

Okay.

Thanks, King of Mobei.

From the day when you trade gromwell with me until today,

it seems everything is under your control.

Thankfully you’re a friend, not an enemy.

Father!

Father, I also want to go to Chang’an.

Changge is just a fake Princess and she can go there.

I’m the genuine one, why can’t I go there?

You eavesdropped again.

I just passed by

and happened to hear Changge say

that she’ll go to Chang’an as a princess.

Father.

- No way. You can’t.
- You knew it.

I long for visiting Chang’an.

No.

Father, that’s quite a rare chance.

If I had such a naughty daughter,

I’d have sent her as far as I can.

You...

Since Princess is so energetic,

if she’s not allowed to go there,

she’d definitely try to follow us.

I think she can just go with me.

That’s easy for you to say.

What if something happens to my baby daughter?

Changge and Brother Sun are with me.

If something happens to me, just punish Changge for that.

Father.

Remember.

Tujia is my only baby girl.

We know that.

Changge will protect me.

Right?

About this journey to Chang’an,

please be careful and promote alliance, Princess.

I won’t let you down, Brother.

Well, I’ll say goodbye now.

Take care.

Brother Sun.

Have you been Chang’an before?

This is my first time to go there.

I heard that Chang’an is a big and beautiful city.

There is also much tasty food.

It’s hard to tell if we’ll be safe in Chang’an.

Are you prepared?

When I was in Liuyun Taoist Temple,

Temple Master told me to follow my heart

and accept the consequence.

If I just seek for safety and avoid disasters and difficulties,

I wouldn’t have been the same Li Changge as today.

Whatever happens, I won’t regret.

Besides, you’re accompanying me.

You’re right.

Let’s go.

I’ll ask some people to help me.

Okay.

Let’s go. Come.

Carefully check everyone in and out.

You can’t leave out any.

Understand?

Yes.

Have you prepared Great Khan’s meal?

Yes, it’s ready.

Did you put enough in it?

Yes.

Khatun is worried that it can’t fill Great Khan’s stomach.

Please be assured.

Great Khan won’t be disappointed.

You can leave here.

Yes.

Princess.

Monan and Mobei have sent envoys to Chang’an about an alliance.

And the team leader is exactly Li Changge.

Li Changge can indeed live well anywhere.

We’ve left many people in Chang’an.

With only an order, Princess...

Then kill her?

The alliance between Great Tang and the desert is basically decided.

Killing only Li Changge changes nothing for the scheme.

Princess means...

Since the desert will ally with Tang Dynasty,

I should also show my offer.

Princess, please don’t.

I know what you’re worrying about.

But But I’m not that girl in the carriage who couldn’t do anything but cry anymore.

Chang’an.

I really look forward to it.

Since Princess wants to go there,

I’ll follow Princess.

No.

I need you to guard Dingxiang for me.

When did you begin following me?

Was it when I was in Daxing Palace

or when I got married?

In the 18th year of Kaihuang.

I was a guard of Daxing Palace.

The second year, you came to the grasslands with me.

I had four husbands.

But in the end, you’re the one always accompanying me.

In other words,

I was also accompanying you.

On this huge grassland,

the only person I can trust is you.

I’ll definitely guard Dingxiang well for you.

You’re here.

I cooked something for you.

Mother.

You can’t sleep, right?

Do you miss the grasslands?

It’s too late.

Have a rest, Mother.

Wait.

I want to talk with you.

Have a taste.

I know that you have many doubts.

And you may also think things happened too suddenly.

I only want to ask

if you tried to get rid of your Uncle Khan’s control

among all these years to see me everyday.

Yes.

When little, every time when I got hurt or punished,

I wanted so much to go to your tent to seek for your comfort.

But I dare not and couldn’t.

I could only bear it by myself.

Mother,

I’m just not used to that.

I understand.

Among all these years, you’ve been growing up alone.

You got used to days without me quite early.

Not like that.

Now we two can finally stay together.

Do you feel happy?

Yes.

Dingxiang is my hometown.

I have so many memories here,

and many regrets also.

I hope that I can make up some when I’m still alive.

Would you like to accompany me?

Everything I do is for you.

I know.

Well. Have a good rest.

I have to go back.

I’ll go to Chang’an later.

Chang’an?

Why are you going to Chang’an?

To do the things I haven’t finished.

Mother.

I’ll accompany you to Chang’an.

[Jude Gate]

Wait.

Chang’an is quite a big city.

That’s much more interesting than Mobei or Monan.

Brother Sun. Changge.

I’m going to buy something.

Miss, have a look. The sugar figures.

Two wen for each.

I’m back finally.

Everything remained but people.

The past should only stay in my memory.

Mother, how are you?

Returning to this sad place.

I’m sorry.

It’s okay.

I just have some complicated feelings.

When it’s over,

I’ll take you to leave here.

This time,

I do feel like a century has passed.

Things are really hard to expect.

I did everything I could to run away.

Now I’m back without caring about the consequence.

A’Sun,

people change easily, right?

You escaped to survive.

Now you’re back for more people to survive.

Changge,

you didn’t do anything wrong.

If the world is in a mess and people died from wars,

how can I enjoy being alive alone?

Saving others is also saving myself.

Don’t worry.

I’ll protect you.

I’m the Mobei Princess now.

No one dare kill me.

Right.

With such a good guard like me,

no one dares to lay a finger on you.
