Episode 36

4

Sit properly.

5

Let me ask you a question.

6

Do you remember who you are?

7

The two of you can stop calling me Crown Prince from now on.

8

My name is Lu Guichen, Asule Pasuoer

9

I am the Crown Prince of Qingyang.

10

My name is

11

Asule Pasuoer.

12

He remembers everything.

13

Why did you come here?

14

I remember being in a big palace.

15

There is a very high level in the palace. When you stand there,

16

you can look down at the entire capital.

17

That's the Capitol's Taiqing Palace.

18

So you remember all that's happened in the Capitol?

19

Then do you remember who I am?

20

Who are you?

21

What about this?

22

We bought this bracelet in Nanhuai.

23

Nanhuai?

24

Hey.

25

Then do you remember him?

26

I remember you.

27

You were wearing

28

a red armor.

29

That's right. Anything else?

30

I don't remember.

31

The armor is still around.

32

The armor is still around.

33

What does that mean?

34

Ji Ye.

35

The house is leaking. Give me a hand.

36

[Shangyang Pass]

37

I never thought that...this famous Shangyang Pass,

38

turns out to be just an isolated city on the wasteland.

39

This isolated city is exactly the southern gateway from Capital City.

40

In the past, it was here that Emperor Qingwei Bai Yin,

41

sacrificed 100,000 elite forces,

42

and conquered this Pass.

43

Then, he swiftly marched into Capital City, replaced the old dynasty with a new one.

44

After passing through the Shangyang Pass, go toward the southeast,

45

pass the paths of Jianshui and Lancang,

46

within a month, the Li State can be reached.

47

But I'm afraid that this journey will not be an easy one.

48

Lord, an urgent report from Revelation City.

49

Bring it up here.

50

Bai Lingbo didn't rush to mount the throne. She is only a regent.

51

Lord, you now become the grand invader who brought calamity to the whole nation.

52

A grand invader who brought calamity to the nation.

53

Such an overbearing title.

54

Since she forces it upon me,

55

Then I can only return the favor.

56

Open the city gate!

57

Bai Lingbo didn't ascend to the throne.

58

It is because she doesn't want to cause anymore battles for the throne at this time.

59

I think, her goal is to gather all the overlords' forces to exterminate you.

60

The loyal allied forces should be here by now?

61

The patrol at the front hasn't brought back any news yet.

62

But to calculate according to the travel distance and the marching speed.

63

We will likely meet near the Shangyang Pass.

64

Then let's rely on this pass to battle.

65

Father, you want to guard the Shangyang Pass?

66

But our troops are skilled at horseback archery. If staying by the pass to fight,

67

I worry that it won't play to our troop's advantage.

68

If it's someone else, even if our troops were in an inferior position.

69

I will have no fear.

70

But our opponent is supposed to be Bai Yi.

71

If there is no Shangyang Pass as a barrier,

72

I won't have absolute certainty in winning the battle.

73

Bai Yi?

74

You mean that Bai Yi known as the Number One General in Eastland? He is coming too?

75

This is an excellent opportunity to eliminate me. He won't give it up.

76

Let's go enter the city.

77

Over night, Ying Wuyi committed regicide.

78

Bai Lingbo resumed her regency.

79

All of our envoys died among the chaos.

80

So we weren't able to get hold of the Princess.

81

Little Zhou must be in danger.

82

Bai Lingbo has always treated her as a thorn in her eye.

83

Please don't be sad, My Lord.

84

The battle at Correspondence Lake assured me

85

that Princess is not a child that panics easily.

86

Even if Revelation City goes through the worst peril, I'm sure she will find a way to survive.

87

Despite what you say, General,

88

I am still worried.

89

Bai Lingbo is extremely hungry for power.

90

The Emperor did not have children and also did not proclaim a successor.

91

Bai Lingbo is controlling the capital. It's likely that she is coveting the throne.

92

In view of the circumstances, I don't think we can continue to stay out of the situation.

93

Chuwei State should immediately send an army to head toward the capital.

94

Who can lead the army?

95

Our army will unavoidably run into

96

Ying Wuyi who is on his back to Li State.

97

I, Bai Yi, request to be commissioned

98

to hurry to Shangyang Pass.

99

But I know you don't want to get embroiled in the war.

100

In times of war,

101

even though I want to protect only one kingdom,

102

I still can't help but get involved in a war of the world.

103

I've prepared for many years to face off Ying Wuyi.

104

Please rest assured, My Lord.

105

I will definitely find the princess and bring her back safely.

106

General, everyone says you are the Number One General of Eastland.

107

In a chaotic era, it really should be your time to rise in fame and valor.

108

It's Chuwei Stat that has held you back.

109

My path in life was decided many years ago.

110

I saw Asule kept holding Little Zhou's hand,

111

but Little Zhou didn't seem very happy.

112

So silly and so stupid.

113

Let me ask you. If there is someone you like,

114

and you can be with her every day,

115

but she doesn't know where to put her hand if she doesn't hold yours.

116

Would you be happy?

117

Of course, I'd be happy.

118

Then let me also ask you.

119

If you knew that when she held your hand,

120

she thought you were someone else,

121

would you be happy then?

122

It's still better to hold holds than not holding at all.

123

That also sounds right.

124

Is this good looking?

125

My mother taught me this when I was a child.

126

I couldn't sleep well at that time.

127

Mother would make her own dolls and tell me stories.

128

I want to keep it and have it around forever.

129

In the future, I can think of you whenever I see it.

130

Asule.

131

This one is me.

132

And what is this one?

133

Who is it?

134

I haven't decided.

135

You can think of a name, and let it stay with you.

136

My mother said that this really works. It will ward off troubles for you.

137

Have you decided?

138

Bai Zhouyue.

139

What did you say?

140

I want to call it Bai Zhouyue.

141

How did you remember this name?

142

I think it's someone I know well.

143

Someone I know very well.

144

But I can't remember who that is.

145

Asule.

146

Actually, I am Bai Zhouyue.

147

You used to call me Little Zhou.

148

You are Bai Zhouyue?

149

My name is Bai Zhouyue,

150

but everyone calls me Princess Little Zhou.

151

I'm probably the first one who has received an annulment on the night of the wedding.

152

Who am I?

153

Asule.

154

Asule.

155

Asule.

156

Asule.

157

If you can't remember then don't keep trying to think.

158

Don't force yourself so much.

159

But...

160

But, who am I?

161

Who you are is not important.

162

I will always stay with you.

163

I used to always think that

164

hot springs can only be found near the volcanoes at Shang Zhou.

165

In the books, it is written that anywhere where fiery lava has flowed, there will be hot springs.

166

There are also some in my homeland.

167

Your homeland?

168

What is it like there? Tell me about it.

169

My homeland is already destroyed.

170

My aunt always talks about restoring homeland, but I never thought of it.

171

I was still young when I left there.

172

I've already forgotten anything that happened when I was young.

173

That's true.

174

You grew up in South Huai City,

175

so South Huai is your home.

176

My home isn't South Huai either.

177

I was born in Revelation City.

178

But, I escaped from Revelation City this time.

179

I'm actually a little glad.

180

I don't want to go back there again.

181

South Huai isn't my home.

182

Maybe one day, Aunt will just take me and leave.

183

Are you able to... disobey her?

184

Don't leave.

185

Are you stupid?

186

Even if I were really taken away,

187

you have two legs, your horse has four legs,

188

in total you have six legs! You don't know how to look for me?

189

You're so stupid.

190

In the past, I thought that South Huai was the best place to be.

191

However now I actually miss my home.

192

People must always return home.

193

Then next time, if you get playful and I can't find you,

194

then I'll return to South Huai and wait for you.

195

No way.

196

No more.

197

Come, come...

198

I recently learned a new word.

199

What word?

200

Playing a piano to an ox! (T/N: a pointless situation)

201

You are the ox!

202

Hurry and pull me!

203

What are you doing!

204

Bring me some wine over here.

205

- Why isn't he coming?

- He's here!

206

Here!

207

Come over!

208

Have you ever been to Chuwei?

209

No, I haven't been there.

210

I heard that the Lord of Chuwei is a beautiful woman. Eastland is so big,

211

but it is rare that the lord is a woman.

212

The world is so big that nothing is to be surprised at.

213

Each place has its own way of supporting its own inhabitants.

214

Like here,

215

amid the chaotic world, there is such a fictitious place of peace and happiness.

216

Here, village head, a toast to you!

217

The newlyweds are here!

218

The newlyweds are here!

219

Look! Quick!

220

Look at the bride!

221

The bride is so pretty!

222

I've let you suffer.

223

I'm most willing to.

224

- Go. Let's go!

-Let's go and watch.

225

Such wedding scene,

226

I've seen it somewhere before.

227

What comes to your mind?

228

Nothing.

229

Quiet! Quiet down!

230

Today is this young couple's wedding day in our village.

231

It is also the great rejoicing day in our village.

232

- Is that right?

- Right!

233

So please be quiet!

234

Wishing you both a lifetime of love and happiness!

235

with a love that is more enduring than gold.

236

Miss Yu Ran,

237

we heard that you excel in playing the zither. You must sing well too.

238

Will you sing a little to help us with our merriment?

239

Yes, yes.

240

That... Only my grandpa thinks I'm good in music.

241

Let's just go dancing.

242

Miss Yu Ran!

243

Come over! Come over!

244

Come over!

245

I can believe that I could see it again while I'm alive,

246

this dance.

247

[Chuwei State's army...]

248

Uncle, is it good news or bad news?

249

The good news is that Chuwei State has deployed an army to assist the Emperor, being lead by General Bai Yi.

250

There is also a bad news.

251

Ying Wuyi's army reached the foot of Shangyang Pass and stopped.

252

It appears we are going to play a tug of war.

253

It's been said that, since ancient times, there are so many bones buried at Shangyang Pass

254

that they can even block the Jian River. This is going to be a hard war.

255

Uncle, haven't you thought of avoiding it?

256

Avoid?

257

I can already smell the Celestial Ministry.

258

Uncle, you mean that

259

the changes in the capital are manipulated by the Celestial Ministry?

260

Within just days, the emperor died,

261

Ying Wuyi marches out, First Princess resumes regency,

262

and the nobles and ministers are slaughtered in the capital.

263

No one has figured out the truth about this drastic change.

264

The devious machination has made me think of the Celestial Ministry.

265

We've always talked about chaos, but chaos has arrived.

266

Chaos is what the Celestials love the most.

267

But, we don't even know where the real enemies are.

268

But we still have to go to the banquet.

269

In the banquet of chaos,

270

our names are already written on the invitations.

271

Although this barrier looks old and dilapidated,

272

it's original foundation is still strong.

273

The foundation of this wall is 50 chi (55 ft) thick and 75 chi (82 ft) tall.

274

There are 72 wells of spring water for us to drink.

275

Our provisions can also last three months.

276

For hundreds of years, the royal family has been repairing this old barrier fort.

277

Surprisingly, we are the ones that get to use it now.

278

But, you still look worried, My Lord.

279

Is this Bai Yi rally so fearsome?

280

Bai Yi is a lone general.

281

By that I mean he can lead a single army to break though the enemy, and is full of unmatched courage

282

with a lonely personality.

283

We must take extra caution in fighting against someone like him.

284

Reporting!

285

My Lord,, as reported by the scouts, Chun State, Cheng State, Xiu State, and Lower Tang's united army

286

is now camped at 45 miles from Shangyang Pass.

287

I've heard.

288

Camped at 45 miles from Shangyang Pass?

289

They must be waiting for Bai Yi.

290

I am Lower Tang's Commanding General, Xi Yan.

291

General Gang Wuwei has guarded Xiu State for 30 years.

292

I've heard that General Fei is adept at surprise schemes.

293

In this war, all the famous generals from Eastland are gathered here.

294

I'm sure even Ying Wuyi would feel honored if he heard.

295

If all these acclaimed generals

296

would let Ying Wuyi get away, how embarrassing that will be for the royal family and various states?

297

First Princess secretly sent the Iron Certificates

298

saying the Heavenly Samurai Regiment bewitched the emperor.

299

Now that His Majesty has died, the Heavenly Samurai Regiment

300

has also disappeared to almost none left. We are the ones left to fight Li State.

301

Will we really kill Ying Wuyi here?

302

Of course, we vassal states

303

officially are still Great Yin's subjects.

304

If we let go of the Emperor's killer,

305

it would look appropriate for a subject to do.

306

That's why we brought our armies here. Isn't it to do what subjects are supposed to do?

307

Ying Wuyi is a fierce leader.

308

His neighboring states have been suppressed by his army.

309

Even the northern states also feel worried

310

when they hear about his troops' movement.

311

If Ying Wuyi is not eliminated, all the states will be overshadowed by his military dominance.

312

And right now is the best opportunity.

313

So, everyone,

314

we are hungry wolves. As we face a powerful lion,

315

We must forget about our grudges with each other and work as one.

316

If Ying Wuyi is the lion,

317

and we are the hungry wolves,

318

it's not too belittling.

319

What lion and wolves. I only know that Shangyang Pass is 45 miles ahead of us.

320

Tomorrow, we can united together and reach Shangyang Pass.

321

What, are you not waiting for General Bai Yi anymore?

322

You can say that General and I are old friends.

323

He has always liked showing up late.

324

But if I did not guess wrong,

325

General Bai Yi should be at Shangyang Pass already.

326

I have not seen you in 7 years.

327

You have not changed a bit.

328

I have gotten older. My hair is starting to turn white.

329

It seems so looking at you in the heavy armor. Time is really heartless.

330

Time hasn't been easy on you, either. We can still do battles now, but what about later?

331

You are just overthinking.

332

It's not that I am overthinking. It's that I have to think about it. I received your letter.

333

It is hard for the armies of 5 countries to come together as one heart.

334

- It's better to fight separately.

- Old Bai.

335

You know about Shangyang Pass's terrain.

336

Outside Shangyang Pass, there's a 300 li wide plain.

337

In this 300 li wide plain, never mind 70,000 people,

338

even 700,000 people will be of no help.

339

But if 5 countries combine forces and you lead them, I can bet that

340

there's a 50% chance Ying Wuyi will die here.

341

Do you really wish for Ying Wuyi to die?

342

Me?

343

I would rather have you live a bit longer.

344

Old Xi, don't tell me you don't understand this principle.

345

Even if this battle ends and we present Ying Wuyi's head, will the Eldest Princess forgive us?

346

Once First Princess wins the throne, the first one that she'll send her army to fight against will be Chuwei.

347

Of course I know.

348

I also know that you came for Princess Little Zhou.

349

However, Old Bai, you have to know that only if we join the forces of 5 countries,

350

can you truly protect Little Zhou and prevent her from being hurt again.

351

South Huai's autumn roses, which I bought at the market before I came.

352

We both like flowers.

353

I believe that you should know what to do next.

354

Miss, you can just put that over there.

355

Let me help you.

356

No need. I'm almost done tying it.

357

Besides, the wife of Village Chief said that you have to tie your own wish for it to work.

358

I think that as long as it's heartfelt, all wishes will come true.

359

But Princess, how come you believe in this despite all the books you've read?

360

Stop calling me "Princess". You can just call me "Little Zhou".

361

After what's happened these past few days, I think it's not important what you believe in.

362

This chaotic world can ruin anything in a moment.

363

Don't be so pessimistic! Look, we're living just fine.

364

Hey, what did you wish for earlier?

365

Never mind. I'll tell you mine.

366

I wished that Asule, Jiye, and I

367

will live well forever and be friends forever.

368

I wished that Asule can get better quickly

369

and peacefully endure through this chaotic world and never be hurt again.

370

And then?

371

Nothing else?

372

Are you stupid? How can you make a wish and not include yourself?

373

Let me ask you.

374

Is Asule really that important to you?

375

Yes.

376

Actually, in the beginning, I always suspected you. I thought you were just using him.

377

Then I discovered, you never had any evil intents and even took care of him.

378

Otherwise, I would have already ripped to into pieces.

379

You're right. I took him to the Capital City without his agreement.

380

And I even used his role as the Lead Chief of the Heavenly Samurai. But it was only to help my brother.

381

You're pretty honest.

382

But I didn't think that I would start liking him.

383

Let me tell you, I noticed way earlier that you liked him. It's right that you like him!

384

You know, Asule is quite talented.

385

You, an Eastland Princess, and him, a Northland Crown Prince,

386

you two are the perfect pair!

387

Sister Xiaoyue, there's new colors of the thread you wanted. The village leader told me to deliver it.

388

What is this used for?

389

Asule's memory has signs of recovery. I want to make him some more dolls and tell him stories.

390

What's wrong? Why did you come here?

391

There's someone there.

392

Brother Crown Prince, forgive us. Forgive us!

393

Who are you? Why do you want me to forgive you?

394

Why is it you two? You— Shouldn't you be—

395

Sister Little Zhou, we came to apologize to Brother Crown Prince.

396

That day, we were out buying things and escaped the slaughter. When we returned,

397

we saw that there were corpses all over the ground. We were so scared we ran away to save our lives.

398

Then, we ran all the way here. We didn't expect that

399

- we would meet you.

- Sister Little Zhou, we always wanted to apologize to Brother Crown Prince.

400

Actually, that day, after we stabbed him, we regretted right away. Brother Crown Prince's face haunts our dreams every night.

401

That day... It was you two that day?

402

Right now, do you want to stab him again?

403

Sister Little Zhou, Brother Crown Prince, we know we have committed a great sin.

404

We don't dare to beg for our lives.

405

- Does apologizing now do anything?

- Little Zhou.

406

Even though I still can't remember what happened earlier, I recognize you two.

407

You aren't bad people. It must have been hard to flee to this place.

408

Take some food and leave.

409

Find a comfortable place to settle down. Forget all that's in the past. Grow up well.

410

Let's go.
