And The Winner Is Love

Episode 29

Tou.

Where are you?

How

have you been doing?

How come I feel that I saw something?

Was that an illusion?

Yin Ci.

Tou’s injury isn’t serious, is it?

Well,

you should ask the Leader.

He did it so recklessly,

the wound was deep, of course.

Luckily, you met me.

Thank you.

Thank you, sir.

Take care.

Mr. Lin.

In a few days,

I’ll go to the Winehouse of Fairyland.

Why will you go there?

I have no idea

what Lord Lu and Feng Cheng

were plotting,

but I do think it takes a long time.

Wuming is watching over Huashan Sect for me.

I’ll go to the Winehouse of Fairyland

and see if I can get some clues

from the messages over these years.

But you just recovered.

Rest assured, sir.

My inner injury has recovered.

It’s fine.

Alright.

Be very careful.

[Winehouse of Fairyland]

In 1516,

800 troops were deployed.

In the next year,

500 troops were deployed

in the name of flood control.

Leader.

Is this a new hairpin?

It looks beautiful.

It’s a gift from Muyuan.

Chief Guardian is so kind to you.

Leader.

What do you

think of him?

He is good.

That's not what I’m asking.

All the people in our sect,

even that blockhead Chequ, can see

Chief Guardian likes you.

Really?

Of course.

Well,

what do you think of him?

Haven’t you ever considered him?

I do think

he is a good man.

Master Shangguan is good, too.

But he is

too ambiguous,

not like Chief Guardian

whom we grow up together with

and know him very well.

This time,

he risked his life again

and saved you from Huashan Sect.

He is so reliable.

I think

the affection

is indeed important for lovers

to live together all the life.

But

isn’t it more important

to marry someone who is reliable

and trustworthy?

For so many years,

no matter what happened to you,

Chief Guardian was always by your side.

It wasn’t that easy.

Let me ask you.

You choose to be with Chequ.

Is it because you like him

or

he is more reliable?

I... That’s because

he’s stupid.

Chief Guardian.

You’re here.

What’s on your mind?

I promised Xuezhi

I’d restore the Hall of Flames

within three years.

But now

nearly two years have passed.

The Hall of Flames doesn’t get better.

Instead, it’s been through the wringer,

and nearly destroyed by Huashan Sect.

Chequ.

If

you want to protect someone all your life,

what will you do?

Zhusha is the one I want to protect.

I’ll marry her

and take care of her forever.

Chief Guardian.

The one you want to protect

is the Leader, right?

Yes it is.

Even a blockhead like you can see it.

Why can’t she?

800.

500.

Tou.

What are you doing?

These flags are...

1,200.

It’s about the deployment

of troops by Lord Lu to the court these years.

Any problem?

Separately,

there’s nothing wrong.

Just some common deployments.

Also,

Lord Lu isn’t the crown prince.

So, the deployed troops each time were limited,

which didn’t arouse suspicion.

However,

in 1516,

Lord Lu deployed 800 troops in Xiangzhou.

Xiangzhou?

It’s Lord Lu’s domain.

Isn’t it normal?

Yes.

However,

just after two months,

in the name of flood control,

he deployed these 800 troops to Huayin,

the current domain of Huashan Sect.

Huashan Sect?

More than that.

In the second year,

Lord Lu sent 500 troops to garrison Emei.

Last year,

he sent 1,200 troops

to garrison Mount Suozi of Shangqing Sect.

Just within three years,

nearly all the sects

are garrisoned by imperial troops.

Could it be just a coincidence?

You mean

Lord Lu

sends troops to keep an eye on all sects?

But why does he do this?

The court and the sects are non-interference.

Non-interference?

Lord Lu may not think so.

Your Highness.

What’s the matter?

The Chief of Huashan Sect,

Feng Mo, comes to see you.

Feng Mo?

Let him in.

Yes.

I’m the Chief of Huashan Sect.

My respects, Your Highness.

The Chief of Huashan Sect?

Who sent you here?

Your Highness.

I paid the visit abruptly,

lacking in manners.

Please forgive me.

Answer my question.

Who sent you here?

Your Highness.

My father was killed by Yuwen Muyuan.

I want to carry on my father’s will,

and continue serving you,

wiping out the Hall of Flames

to avenge my father's death.

Idiot!

Feng Cheng was an idiot!

I warned him

not to let anyone else know this,

yet he still leaked it out.

Wasn’t he an idiot?

Sorry, Your Highness.

The thing you ordered my father to do

was done by us together.

No one else

except for us knows it.

Although my father is dead,

your course cannot be delayed.

I succeeded him as the Chief of Huashan Sect.

I’d like to serve Your Highness

and help you complete the plan.

Chief Feng.

Is your father’s funeral

properly handled?

Thanks for your concern, Your Highness.

It’s all set.

My father

was already buried.

I’m relieved then.

I’m sorry

for your father’s death.

Since you’re sincere,

I’ll give you a task,

which

can also

avenge your father’s death.

Pastries!

Muyuan.

I’m hungry.

Hungry?

What

should we eat?

What would you like to eat?

Hello, would you like some cakes?

Hello, what would you like to eat?

These are mung bean cakes.

These are osmanthus cakes.

These are almond cakes.

Fresh osmanthus cakes!

Osmanthus cakes!

Hello.

Osmanthus cakes.

Osmanthus cakes.

They're just out of the oven.

It’s the first day of the month.

Osmanthus cakes are the best.

Yeah.

Sir.

I’ll take them all.

Yes, Master Shangguan.

Xuezhi.

Xuezhi.

Which kind?

Sir.

Wrap them all.

Sure. Wait a moment.

Eat slowly.

No hurry.

Xuezhi, do you remember

when I just came to the Hall of Flames,

my godfather introduced you to me

and let me take good care of you?

Of course I do.

You called me

Xuezhi like this.

You’ve been taking care of me.

Yes.

But I don't think

I’m doing well.

I always think

no matter what kind of danger you’re in,

I can come to you

right away

and protect you.

But this time

I was really scared.

Well,

it’s also you who saved me this time.

Feng Cheng is already dead.

What if there were other enemies?

Now

I couldn’t take it

if anyone hurt you

by any means.

Muyuan.

I know you see it as your duty to protect me

and the sect.

But...

I’m not talking about the sect.

I'm talking about you.

I know

in your heart,

I’m just like your brother

who takes care of you

and protects you.

Or

you think everything I do

is all because I’m Chief Guardian.

But Xuezhi, think about it.

We grew up together since childhood,

practicing martial arts

and living together.

Now we’re grown-ups.

I’ve never mentioned

some things to you,

but it doesn’t mean

I’ve never thought about them.

Muyuan.

Back then,

I protected you

as your brother.

But from now on,

I hope I can protect you for life

In another role.

May I?

I...

Of course.

There's no rush to answer me.

Because I know

you still

can't forget him.

You need more time.

I mean

whether you agree or not,

just tell me when you

are ready.

Actually,

I want to forget him, too.

But

I find

I cannot do it.

I can’t take it that

he's never been in my life.

So, Muyuan,

perhaps I need more time.

I understand.

Actually,

I don’t mean for you to

forget him.

You shouldn’t do that.

I just don’t hope

you won’t be longing for him in the future.

Xuezhi. Remember.

Whatever

you missed before,

you have to face

To have a future life.

Muyuan.

You know.

He is

very unusual

He doesn’t have me in his heart,

yet he’s reluctant to let me go.

Yes.

But for someone,

What’s even stranger.

Is that he does have you in all his heart,

yet he can’t have you.

Tou.

You’ve looked at the chessboard for two days.

Did you fell in love with it?

Hongxiu.

Do you know chess?

Those from the Winehouse of Fairyland

are well-rounded in talents.

But

looking at the board while not placing pieces,

I just don’t get that

I want to place pieces, too.

But I don’t know where to place them.

It depends on where the opponent will.

The piece

placed by the opponent is invisible.

If it’s a game with Lord Lu,

don’t guess where his pieces will be.

You need to place ahead of him.

Humans

all have fatal weakness.

If none of you act,

how can you play the game?

So, I think

you might as well

place a piece first

and lead him out.

Take the initiative.

The way of your playing

is indeed a good strategy.

I’m not as tricky as you are.

How is it?

Is it

helpful to you?

Of course.

Thank you, Hongxiu.

Then tell me.

How is it going between Xuezhi and you?

Xuezhi and I

are just parted temporarily to let things settle.

You’ve been parted for too long.

I tried so hard

to persuade her to listen to your explanation.

Did you explain?

I didn’t get an appropriate chance.

Tou, you’re so foolish.

You're always stalling.

Can’t you see

Chief Guardian Muyuan’s mind

on Xuezhi?

Xuezhi is in danger currently.

She goes back to the Hall of Flames

and has Chief Guardian with her.

At least she's safe.

As for her and me,

it’s no hurry.

I'm reminding you

tons of things happened to Xuezhi lately.

Her mind has changed.

If you continue doing nothing,

no one knows

what will happen in the future.

Hongxiu.

All in all, Xuezhi being in danger

in Huashan was all because of me.

Hadn’t Zheng invited her to Dongdu,

it wouldn’t have been

such a mess.

By the banquet, Lord Lu tried to

subdue the sects in the name of mediation.

Xuezhi is highly self-esteemed.

She rejected Lord Lu in public.

I’m afraid Lord Lu bears a grudge

and will do harm to Xuezhi.

Besides,

I’ve always felt

Lord Lu pays much attention to Hall of Flames.

Once I think of someone targets Xuezhi,

I feel really uneasy.

When I find out Lord Lu’s true colors,

I’ll go to her right away

and tell her everything.

Tou.

Are you afraid?

How so?

You’ve been separated from her for so long.

You’re afraid

another man will replace you in her heart.

I believe in Xuezhi

and our love.

Alright. Alright.

Take care.

Life is short.

Don’t just focus on the future

but miss the present.

I’m leaving.

Master Shangguan.

Wuming.

Aren’t you in Xiangzhou?

How come you’re here?

Master Shangguan.

Feng Mo visited Lord Lu.

Feng Cheng colluded with Lord Lu long ago.

Now Feng Cheng is dead.

Feng Mo is young and takes over Huashan.

Badly, with poor foundation,
he has no one to rely on.

It’s reasonable to seek protection from Lord Lu.

It’s just that

I didn’t expect he’d act so fast.

Yeah.

Feng Cheng just died.

Feng Mo carried on his father’s will

and got a powerful backup.

Like father, like son.

What else did you find out?

I didn’t get

the details of their talk,

but

Feng Mo looked relaxed and had a good mood

when he came out of the mansion.

If that’s the case,

Feng Mo might’ve made an agreement

with Lord Lu.

They may act very soon.

Did Feng Mo have any gift with him

when he came out from the mansion?

No.

He went with only a dagger.

So did he when he was out.

Feng Mo had no manners,

even taking a dagger into the mansion.

Yeah.

I don’t understand, either.

Master Shangguan.

What should we do next?

If I were Lord Lu,

my domain Xiangzhou

was away from the prosperous Dongdu.

I never associated with nobles in court,

or fought with princes.

I were fragile,

so I strengthened my body through martial arts.

However, I didn’t achieve my course.

I favored laws,

believing the court and sects are all emperor’s.

All the sects shall stick to rules.

I deployed troops

in all sects’ domain several times

flawlessly.

I saw the Hall of Flames fight against Huashan

and became the final winner.

I traded with Feng Mo after Feng Cheng died.

As a lord,

I could give Feng Mo glory and wealth.

But Feng Mo is a commoner.

What can he give me back?

Yeah.

What can Feng Mo give Lord Lu?

Promising to kill someone

like Feng Cheng did.

Wuming.

Let me ask you.

Whom will Feng Mo

avenge against for his father?

It must be Yuwen Muyuan.

I don’t think so.

Feng Cheng was killed by Muyuan.

But all in all,

his death

had something to with the Hall of Flames.

Think about it.

Chong Ye created the Nine Moves of Lotus God

and killed the old Chief Feng.

They’ve held a feud since then.

Xuezhi destroyed the Nine Moves in public

and Lotus Wing perished.

Xuezhi came back from the seclusion

and settled the epidemic,

and the Hall of Flames got to thrive.

Feng Cheng

was unable to resist alone,

so, sought help from the government.

Unexpectedly, he failed and got killed,

leaving a useless Feng Mo.

Why did Feng Mo seek help from Lord Lu

to avenge against the Hall of Flames?

Lord Lu and the Hall of Flames

have never had any grudge.

How come he got involved in this?

Perhaps he doesn’t only want the Hall of Flames,

but all the sects in the world.

[Imperial Advisor’s Mansion]

Father.

I found something in the Winehouse of Fairyland

which may concern Lord Lu.

Second prince?

Yes.

Do you remember I ever said

the culprit behind Man Feiyue and Feng Cheng

could be the same person?

I suspect it is Lord Lu.

Any evidence?

In the Winehouse of Fairyland, I found

Lord Lu has been deploying troops

into all sects by various names

over these years.

I think

he’s watching over the moves of all sects.

Tou.

I divined

with divinatory trigrams the other day,

which showed

the fishes died

in the turbulent water.

The trigram result was so weird.

Father, you said before

the court was water.

The sects were fishes in it.

Does the trigram show

the water of court will be turbulent

and the sects will suffer a disaster?

If Lord Lu really intended to

stir the water up as you said,

that would be a disaster indeed.

Huashan Sect raided the Hall of Flames.

The century-old legacy of the Hall of Flames

was nearly ruined overnight.

Huashan Sect lost their chief as well.

Just within one month,

the two large sects were greatly undermined.

If it’s really plotted by Lord Lu, he meant to

let all sects fight against each other

to be the final winner.

If he isn’t stopped,

I’m wondering he will do

more horrible things.

Tou.

You’re not an official.

Moon Valley is secluded from the world.

You should stay out of this.

I will

have a talk with Lord Lu.

Father.

You're the Imperial Advisor.

Is it appropriate

to visit Lord Lu in Xiangzhou?

His Majesty will issue new taxation policies.

Household Ministry is in charge of taxation,

which can be a reason for my visit.

By the name of public business,

I don’t think it will arouse gossip.

I’ll go with you, father.

I can visit my sister as well.

Sure.

Tou.

Zheng is your sister,

your family.

If I’m gone someday,

you should take care of each other.

Father, what are you talking about?

You’ll see me get married and have kids.

Tou.

Promise me.

Yes.

I promise you, father.

[Lord Lu’s Mansion]

You’ve never come to Xiangzhou.

Now that you pay me a visit,

there must be something.

His Majesty intends to reform the taxation

and promote new policies.

It’s my obligation.

Imperial Advisor, you fancy

my small city, right?

You're modest, Lord Lu.

Xiangzhou might be a small city originally.

But under your governance,

the politics are well ordered.

People lead a wealthy and happy life.

It’s my father’s will.

I’ll do my utmost to cooperate.

But at politics, I’m not

as good as you.

New taxation policy concerns livelihood.

Please do it in my stead.

I may have more time to accompany Zheng.

You don’t struggle for power.

Everyone knows that.

I’ll tell His Majesty.

That isn’t true.

Actually,

I want to take it myself.

Take what, Your Highness?

It’s simple, actually.

Cast food into the fishpond,

and the fishes will come in swarms

for food.

I don’t think

people are like fish.

Fish are animals,

and have no sense of good or evil,

just seeking for food

to survive.

Lord Lu feeds them food.

They’ll surround you definitely.

I don’t agree with you, Imperial Advisor.

I don’t think

fish and humans

have many differences.

They are both greedy and filthy by nature.

If

there’s no pond restricting them,

do you think

they will give in?

So are the humans.

No rules,

nothing can be done.

Lord Lu, do you want to

apply the rules of the fishpond

to the sects?

Why not?

There were no sects

in the world originally,

which were just set up by commoners

to shelter themselves in wartime.

Now that the world is in peace,

the existence of sects is unnecessary.

I’m afraid

if they continue developing,

the peaceful world

will be threatened.

Your highness, as you think...

All the land belongs to the emperor.

All the people

are the subjects of the emperor.

The government should have destroyed

these boorish people long ago.

Looks like

you’ve already decided on it

You’re my father-in-law.

Are you willing

to join me?

I prefer

the life like a fish in the wild pond,

enjoying the freedom,

not being controlled or subject to others.

That’s pleasing.

You’re not fish.

How do you know fishes’ life is miserable

or happy?

Never mind.

We all have aspirations.

Since you’re reluctant,

I won’t force you.

How is it going?

How is Miss Chong?

Rest assured, sister.

I come here

to especially tell you about it.

Xuezhi

is all right now.

Yuwen Muyuan killed Feng Cheng,

and took her back to the Hall of Flames.

That’s good.

Feng Cheng

deserved his death.

I was worried

if something went wrong with Miss Chong,

you wouldn’t recognize me as your sister.

What are you talking about, sister?

I know

you’re kind to me.

Tou.

That day in Dongdu, I could see

Chief Guardian Muyuan cared about Xuezhi a lot.

He guarded against us.

Yuwen Muyuan and Xuezhi grew up together.

They are

like friends and also siblings.

They’re intimate.

But it’s different from your affections with her.

At the banquet that day,

you protected her cautiously.

All the people had seen that clearly.

But

they couldn’t necessarily sense

she also cared about you.

What do you mean?

She was caring about you,

so she didn’t allow you to chase her.

Because she clearly knew

she didn’t drink Lie’s wine

and had a beef with him.

If you went out after her,

that would make me

and your brother-in-law embarrassed.

Tou.

The love between you

is clearly seen by outsiders.

Not to mention Chief Guardian,

even hundreds and thousands of guardians

can never change

your love to each other.

So, stop hesitating.

Go to see Miss Chong right away.

Love can afford being tested,

but not humanity.

So, you should let her know

all you have done to her.

Although your affections are deep,

she will become indifferent

over time.

Your Highness.

I heard from the guard

that Imperial Advisor comes.

Father is here.

Why didn’t you tell me?

Father has

important issues to discuss with Lord Lu.

So, I didn’t tell you.

Where is he?

He’s talking with His Highness.

How long will you stay?

Father is busy in the court.

We’re leaving in a while.

Then I should

go to see father right now.

Sure.

The scene

makes me think of

an old story about chess.

Wang Zhi watched the chess game.

Before one game was over,

his new axe was already rotten.

He returned home

and found it had been a century.

Family and friends were all dead.

That must be the saddest story in the world.

Joy and sorrow of life

is in a game.

Things changed while not being noticed.

He forgotten the worries.

If I were Wang Zhi,

I would feel lucky to watch such a game.

Watching a game

is better than being with family for a century?

It depends.

If you’re asking me

as Shangguan Xingzhou,

I’d choose

to be with family.

If you’re asking me as Imperial Advisor,

who else would be in the game

if not me?

I’m wondering

the one standing before me

is my father-in-law

or the Imperial Advisor?

Accounts received.

Excuse me, Your Highness.

Imperial Advisor.

I do feel Tou is really

like you.

Tou is Zheng’s brother.

He looks like Zheng as well.

That’s for sure.

Tou and Zheng are both

like you.

I believe

you will treat Zheng well always.

Excuse me, Your Highness.

Please.

Father.

Zheng.

I was discussing politics with Lord Lu.

I couldn’t talk to you.

Why do you look unhappy?

Did His Highness anger you?

Not at all. Zheng.

Don’t think too much.

Tou.

Have you finished your talk with your sister?

Zheng.

I have to get back to Dongdu quickly.

I’ll see you next time when I’m free.

Pardon me, Your Highness.

What did Imperial Advisor come for?

I think

he intended to sever the ties with me

on behalf of Shangguan family.

Given Master Shangguan’s tie
with the Hall of Flames,

it’s really hard to handle.

My father-in-law.

If you wouldn’t go against me,

our family

would be in perfect harmony.

Please think twice, Your Highness.

Imperial Advisor is the pillar of the state,

the right-hand man of His Majesty.

He tutored the crown prince.

His daughter is your wife.

If you hurt him,

perhaps

it will be rumored by people that you provoke

the crown prince or His Majesty.

How dare you!

You are my advisor.

How dare you offend

and lecture me!

I dare not.

It’s just because

Imperial Advisor is deeply rooted in the court.

I hope Your Highness can be discreet.

Deeply rooted?

Can you tell me

where his roots are?

The whole world

belongs to the emperor.
