The reform has proven effective,
185
00:12:49,670 --> 00:12:51,340
and removed the potential risks
of the Northern Expedition.
186
00:12:51,340 --> 00:12:53,270
Why are you still worried, Your Highness?
187
00:12:53,270 --> 00:12:54,360
I don't like war,
188
00:12:55,140 --> 00:12:57,340
but peace can't be restored without it.
189
00:12:57,790 --> 00:12:59,870
Whether a nation prospers or falls,
190
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,530
it is always the people who suffer.
191
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,160
From now on, you are no longer
registered as a slave,
192
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,390
but the manager of the Miraculous Craft.
193
00:13:10,390 --> 00:13:11,440
I'm leaving you to handle everything
194
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:12,500
I have in Jiankang.
195
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:15,970
Ever since Cang'er's passing,
196
00:13:16,070 --> 00:13:18,270
I've been considering your placement.
197
00:13:18,670 --> 00:13:20,360
Good thing you didn't fall in love
with Qing Long.
198
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:21,390
Otherwise, I would be worried
199
00:13:21,390 --> 00:13:22,750
if I had to marry you to a man who could
200
00:13:22,750 --> 00:13:23,960
get on the battlefield anytime.
201
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,480
There's no way I'd be into him.
202
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,630
But I can see
he clings to you all the time.
203
00:13:27,630 --> 00:13:28,960
He's not clinging to me.
204
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:30,320
He's clearly trying to spend
205
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,180
more time with Yan Yue through me.
206
00:13:32,250 --> 00:13:33,380
Then what about you?
207
00:13:33,390 --> 00:13:36,050
I also love being around
with Yan Yue, of course.
208
00:13:36,390 --> 00:13:37,480
In my heart,
209
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:38,520
Your Highness
210
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:40,060
is the most important.
211
00:13:41,030 --> 00:13:42,830
I wish to stick with you, My Lady.
212
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:45,080
You silly girl.
213
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:46,440
I just entrusted you
214
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:47,440
with my biggest fallback.
215
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,670
You're highly talented
in business and accounting.
216
00:13:49,670 --> 00:13:50,670
Both warfare
217
00:13:50,670 --> 00:13:51,960
and weapon manufacturing
218
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,420
cost a great deal of money.
219
00:13:53,910 --> 00:13:55,080
If I am short of money in the future
220
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:56,320
and write to you for help,
221
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,180
you must not pretend not to see it.
222
00:13:58,600 --> 00:13:59,530
I swear, My Lady,
223
00:13:59,750 --> 00:14:01,750
to manage the Miraculous Craft well
224
00:14:01,790 --> 00:14:03,320
and make more money for you.
225
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:11,210
Master, are you sure about
sending all these books
226
00:14:11,210 --> 00:14:12,610
to the Imperial Academy?
227
00:14:13,390 --> 00:14:14,190
You've gone to
228
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,700
great lengths to collect them
all your life.
229
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,050
Now that I'm letting things go,
230
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:22,690
I might as well do it all the way.
231
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:26,720
Master, do you really think
232
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,780
His Highness chose the correct path?
233
00:14:29,910 --> 00:14:30,790
Jiayu...
234
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,750
Yaoyao said something right.
235
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,750
Each generation has its own path to walk.
236
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,440
Now, Yizhi is sure to ascend the throne.
237
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:46,910
Although the path he will take
238
00:14:46,910 --> 00:14:47,970
may not be correct,
239
00:14:48,550 --> 00:14:51,150
sticking to old patterns is surely wrong.
240
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:54,750
As for us...
241
00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,440
As for us old folks,
242
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,510
it's time we made way for them.
243
00:15:05,750 --> 00:15:06,510
Grand Tutor!
244
00:15:08,630 --> 00:15:10,760
Can you really bear to leave Jiankang?
245
00:15:12,910 --> 00:15:13,840
Prince Jing'an?
246
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,340
Are you really going to
247
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,480
let me and my family off the hook
so easily?
248
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:18,410
What do you mean?
249
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:21,000
I wrote
250
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,870
this confession to Empress Wenxi myself.
251
00:15:24,870 --> 00:15:26,790
Grand Tutor, don't you want to know
252
00:15:26,790 --> 00:15:27,790
who orchestrated
253
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:30,200
that injustice
254
00:15:30,910 --> 00:15:32,390
from years ago?
255
00:15:33,790 --> 00:15:34,590
Aren't you...
256
00:15:35,270 --> 00:15:36,080
Master!
257
00:16:22,670 --> 00:16:23,730
Someone come here!
258
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:27,170
Is anyone there?
259
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,000
How odd. Why is no one around?
260
00:16:32,510 --> 00:16:33,120
Mother!
261
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:35,320
Ruisheng!
262
00:16:35,790 --> 00:16:36,550
Father!
263
00:16:37,270 --> 00:16:39,930
Did Father go out for drinks
and gambling again?
264
00:16:40,790 --> 00:16:42,790
Prince Qi invites Your Highness
265
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:44,240
to the Grand Tutor's Mansion.
266
00:16:43,890 --> 00:16:46,080

Yaoyao.
268
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,080
Please don't cry
when you see the Grand Tutor later.
269
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:52,600
Though he had selfish motives before,
270
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,460
he did spend 18 years raising you.
271
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:56,600
Death wipes away all wrongs.
272
00:16:57,170 --> 00:16:58,630

How did this happen?

00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:35,860
What exactly was going on?
320
00:19:36,350 --> 00:19:37,240
Wasn't he preparing to retire
321
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:38,770
and return to his hometown?
322
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:40,750
Who on earth did this?
323
00:19:43,860 --> 00:19:44,660
It was Xiao Ju.
324
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:50,000
What?
325
00:19:51,830 --> 00:19:52,640
That's impossible.
326
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,840
The Commandant of Justice
and the common people witnessed it.
327
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:55,600
Xiao Ju
328
00:19:55,940 --> 00:19:57,210
was caught on the spot.
329
00:19:59,310 --> 00:20:00,170
Your Highness!
330
00:20:04,350 --> 00:20:05,400
Say what happened.
331
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:06,530
Yes, Your Highness.
332
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:07,510
Heir's Consort,
333
00:20:07,510 --> 00:20:09,830
today, I heard someone causing trouble
in the Grand Tutor's Mansion,
334
00:20:09,830 --> 00:20:10,680
so I came.
335
00:20:11,030 --> 00:20:14,410
Then I ran right into Prince Jing'an
committing a murder here.
336
00:20:14,410 --> 00:20:15,070
Who are you?
337
00:20:16,750 --> 00:20:17,680
Prince Jing'an?
338
00:20:21,590 --> 00:20:23,210
He slashed at everyone he saw as he moved.
339
00:20:23,210 --> 00:20:25,310
All the people on this very street
can testify
340
00:20:25,310 --> 00:20:28,440
that the assailant was exactly
Prince Jing'an, Xiao Ju.
341
00:20:29,590 --> 00:20:31,240
Suddenly, a cart dashed in
342
00:20:31,350 --> 00:20:33,170
and knocked
the fleeing Prince Jing'an down.
343
00:20:33,170 --> 00:20:34,630
Only then was he captured.
344
00:20:36,060 --> 00:20:37,860
All of this seems unreasonable.
345
00:20:38,510 --> 00:20:39,590
If Prince Jing'an wanted revenge
346
00:20:39,590 --> 00:20:40,790
for knowing my father
347
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:43,000
had conspired with Liu Zhaolin,
348
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:44,880
he wouldn't have chosen to do it
in broad daylight,
349
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:46,920
gone out to the street
instead of small alleys
350
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,550
upon being discovered,
or slashed at others.
351
00:20:48,550 --> 00:20:50,070
Wasn't it practically finding witnesses
for himself?
352
00:20:50,070 --> 00:20:51,200
I was also confused,
353
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,790
till I found this
in the Grand Tutor's arms.
354
00:21:05,330 --> 00:21:05,960
This is...
355
00:21:06,750 --> 00:21:09,230
a confession letter Prince Jing'an wrote
to Empress Wenxi years ago.
356
00:21:09,230 --> 00:21:10,250
This confession letter
357
00:21:10,250 --> 00:21:12,110
is dated the 12th year
of the Zhaoning reign,
358
00:21:12,110 --> 00:21:14,370
exactly on the eve of the Capital's fall.
359
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,000
Back then, Prince Jing'an was well aware
360
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,880
that the An and Lu families
were falsely accused,
361
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,440
yet he still brought these 200-odd people
onto the execution ground.
362
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,160
So, when Prince Jing'an learned
363
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:23,960
that this letter
was in the Grand Tutor's hands,
364
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:25,240
he killed the latter to silence him.
365
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:26,700
This makes perfect sense.
366
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:27,740
It's not right.
367
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,480
My father figured out long ago
that the An and Lu families were wronged.
368
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:31,720
If he had known about this letter,
369
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,680
he wouldn't have kept silent for so long.
370
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:34,940
When the Capital fell,
371
00:21:35,270 --> 00:21:37,270
if this letter wasn't ruined at war,
372
00:21:37,350 --> 00:21:39,550
then it must've gone to Northern Qin...
373
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:40,480
Right.
374
00:21:41,030 --> 00:21:42,090
It's Northern Qin.
375
00:21:42,190 --> 00:21:42,920
Commandant,
376
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,260
did you see Prince Jing'an speak
at that time?
377
00:21:45,260 --> 00:21:46,060
No, he didn't.
378
00:21:48,090 --> 00:21:49,090
That explains it.
379
00:21:49,370 --> 00:21:51,630
One's accent gives away one's identity.
380
00:21:53,110 --> 00:21:54,920
Mao, do you remember Cui Jun?
381
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,240
He used the secret disguise technique
of Northern Qin.
382
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,500
This is all a conspiracy by Northern Qin.
383
00:22:11,310 --> 00:22:12,310
Your Highness...
384
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,720
Who had the audacity to tie me up?
385
00:22:17,210 --> 00:22:18,030
Untie me now!
386
00:22:18,030 --> 00:22:18,960
Prince Jing'an,
387
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:21,400
what do you have to say?
388
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:21,960
I...
389
00:22:22,100 --> 00:22:24,050
was on my way home after gambling
390
00:22:24,830 --> 00:22:25,720
when someone attacked me.
391
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:27,550
Then I woke up and found myself here
392
00:22:27,550 --> 00:22:29,080
without knowing anything.
393
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:32,750
Your Highness,
394
00:22:33,100 --> 00:22:34,070
Anfeng Restaurant,
395
00:22:34,070 --> 00:22:34,880
Laowang Temple,
396
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:36,350
Su's Rouge Shop, and four other
397
00:22:36,350 --> 00:22:37,590
spy outposts of Northern Qin
398
00:22:37,590 --> 00:22:39,110
have all been investigated.
399
00:22:39,110 --> 00:22:40,790
The Northern Qin spies
are working as normal,
400
00:22:40,790 --> 00:22:41,830
showing no suspicious activity.
401
00:22:41,830 --> 00:22:43,560
Neither has anyone withdrawn.
402
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,250
If this was really the work
of Northern Qin spies,
403
00:22:46,250 --> 00:22:48,890
logically speaking,
whether it was a success or a failure,
404
00:22:48,890 --> 00:22:50,270
they would've withdrawn instantly.
405
00:22:50,270 --> 00:22:51,530
But they didn't leave.
406
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,240
They must have no knowledge of this,
since they wouldn't
407
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,700
just wait to be rounded up
all at once, right?
408
00:22:58,440 --> 00:22:59,370
Prince Jing'an,
409
00:22:59,550 --> 00:23:00,960
you said someone attacked you.
410
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:02,090
Was there a witness?
411
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:03,680
Probably...
412
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:05,070
no.
413
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,400
When I go gambling,
414
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,480
I always do it behind my wife's back.
415
00:23:11,070 --> 00:23:12,350
But Jiayu knows it.
416
00:23:17,310 --> 00:23:19,910
Is the content
of this confession letter true?
417
00:23:22,110 --> 00:23:23,510
Back then, in order to...
418
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:25,860
suppress the noble families,
419
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:26,920
I...
420
00:23:28,750 --> 00:23:30,610
didn't reveal the truth, indeed.
421
00:23:34,750 --> 00:23:37,400
Given that justice has been restored
for the An and Lu families...
422
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:37,920
Guards!
423
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:39,140
-Yes!
-Yes!
424
00:23:39,550 --> 00:23:42,070
Detain everyone
in Prince Jing'an's Mansion,
425
00:23:42,070 --> 00:23:44,960
and have Xiao Yao arrested and brought
back from Yingzhou immediately.
426
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:46,040
Strip him of his post there as well.
427
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:46,560
Yes.
428
00:23:46,790 --> 00:23:47,690
Your Highness...
429
00:23:47,690 --> 00:23:48,650
The detention will be in secret.
430
00:23:48,650 --> 00:23:49,980
Your Highness, this...
431
00:23:50,060 --> 00:23:50,540
This...
432
00:23:51,030 --> 00:23:53,110
Xiao Wuyi hasn't returned
from the inspection tour yet.
433
00:23:53,110 --> 00:23:55,160
All that has happened here
must be kept secret
434
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:56,620
from him, in case he flees.
435
00:24:01,830 --> 00:24:04,230
Escort the Heir's Consort into the palace.
436
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:05,200
Take her away!
437
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,660
Shouldn't you say something?
438
00:24:30,510 --> 00:24:31,680
What should I say?
439
00:24:32,310 --> 00:24:33,640
Mock me, scold me, throw
440
00:24:33,750 --> 00:24:35,150
a tantrum or threaten me.
441
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:36,240
Anything is fine.
442
00:24:36,590 --> 00:24:38,000
Just do what you used to.
443
00:24:40,510 --> 00:24:42,370
Time passes like a flowing river.
444
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,380
How can you expect things
to remain the same?
445
00:24:46,750 --> 00:24:48,720
Did I turn you into this?
446
00:24:49,310 --> 00:24:51,830
You knew my father's death
was suspicious in many ways,
447
00:24:51,830 --> 00:24:54,070
and that Prince Jing'an was framed
by Northern Qin.
448
00:24:54,070 --> 00:24:55,720
But you still seized on it
to stir up more trouble.
449
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,050
How I wish you were angry
450
00:24:58,110 --> 00:24:59,590
partly because of me.
451
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,140
I thought after the spring examination,
452
00:25:05,310 --> 00:25:07,170
you and Xiao Wuyi had reconciled.
453
00:25:07,310 --> 00:25:09,550
But I'm also afraid you'd only remember
the bad things about me.
454
00:25:09,550 --> 00:25:12,150
You believe
Xiao Wuyi has never coveted power,
455
00:25:12,460 --> 00:25:14,440
and you've obtained
the Phoenix Heart Token.
456
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,900
He can't prove he is Crown Prince Wenxi
by any means.
457
00:25:16,900 --> 00:25:17,560
Besides...
458
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:20,860
he can't live for much longer anyway.
459
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,970
Don't you resent him for dragging you down
460
00:25:30,510 --> 00:25:31,910
as his days are numbered?
461
00:25:33,030 --> 00:25:34,350
No one can drag me down.
462
00:25:37,110 --> 00:25:39,110
I willingly chose to stick with him.
463
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:41,540
Then if he leaves you forever,
464
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:43,170
what will you do?
465
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:45,820
As long as he has never let me down,
466
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:48,620
even if he is gone forever,
467
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,100
I'll still feel like he's around.
468
00:25:52,510 --> 00:25:54,000
I'll carry on his legacy
469
00:25:55,270 --> 00:25:56,480
and live my life well.
470
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:01,520
Does it mean you left me back then
471
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:03,890
because I somehow let you down?
472
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,800
I just couldn't understand you,
473
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:10,960
like now—
474
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:13,110
I still can't tell
475
00:26:16,270 --> 00:26:17,510
when you are acting
476
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:19,930
and when you are being genuine.
477
00:26:27,830 --> 00:26:28,550
Maybe
478
00:26:29,660 --> 00:26:31,790
you really are suited to be an emperor.
479
00:26:32,110 --> 00:26:33,240
Unpredictable.
480
00:26:33,830 --> 00:26:35,490
Calculated like a sovereign.
481
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:37,680
How very fearful.
482
00:26:44,130 --> 00:26:44,830
Officers,
483
00:26:44,830 --> 00:26:45,720
I'm terribly sorry.
484
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:46,780
I'll go right away.
485
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:50,930
Are you alright?
486
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,400
You keep me in chains yet protect me.
487
00:26:54,510 --> 00:26:55,070
Mao,
488
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:57,900
you're such a contradiction.
489
00:27:01,350 --> 00:27:03,550
I remember you're allergic to peaches.
490
00:27:03,550 --> 00:27:05,270
Never did I imagine that one day,
491
00:27:05,270 --> 00:27:07,270
I'd have no choice but to attack you.
492
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:26,830
Freeze!
493
00:27:44,270 --> 00:27:45,070
As you said,
494
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:46,350
Prince Qi knew that Northern Qin
495
00:27:46,350 --> 00:27:47,590
plotted to turn a ruler
against his ministers,
496
00:27:47,590 --> 00:27:49,270
yet he still capitalized on it to seize
497
00:27:49,270 --> 00:27:51,200
Prince Jing'an's military power.
498
00:27:51,250 --> 00:27:53,880
So he just faked
his previous alliance with Wuyi...
499
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:55,000
Right now, I have no idea
500
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,350
if he's being genuine or pretending.
501
00:27:56,350 --> 00:27:57,000
The priority
502
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,400
is to have Xiao Wuyi found
503
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:00,000
and warned not to come back to Jiankang
504
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:01,030
so he won't fall into this trap.
505
00:28:01,030 --> 00:28:01,830
You're right.
506
00:28:02,030 --> 00:28:03,330
A man is judged by his actions,
not his thoughts,
507
00:28:03,330 --> 00:28:04,590
let alone a sovereign.
508
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:06,590
I'm afraid only I can
509
00:28:06,590 --> 00:28:08,390
speak up for the Xiao family now.
510
00:28:08,750 --> 00:28:09,790
I'll submit a memorial tomorrow.
511
00:28:09,790 --> 00:28:10,550
Don't, Yuanji.
512
00:28:10,550 --> 00:28:11,790
Or you'll irritate Prince Qi.
513
00:28:11,790 --> 00:28:12,790
An official must be loyal,
514
00:28:12,790 --> 00:28:14,050
but not blindly loyal.
515
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:15,750
If there are so many doubts
about this case,
516
00:28:15,750 --> 00:28:17,680
then it is my duty
to submit a memorial on it.
517
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:19,210
You stay here for the night.
518
00:28:19,490 --> 00:28:20,180
Keep up!
519
00:28:26,090 --> 00:28:28,890
Da is leading some Imperial Guards
to look for you.
520
00:28:32,070 --> 00:28:33,270
They are almost here!
521
00:28:34,100 --> 00:28:35,900
Yuanji, lend me the seal
of the Household Department.
522
00:28:35,900 --> 00:28:36,560
No problem.
523
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:47,890
She ran away,
524
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,100
after robbing me
of the Household Department seal.
525
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:08,000
Leave town tonight,
526
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:09,270
and rush to the post house.
527
00:29:09,270 --> 00:29:10,790
Make sure you tell the Heir
about the incident in Jiankang
528
00:29:10,790 --> 00:29:12,270
before Prince Qi's people arrive.
529
00:29:12,270 --> 00:29:12,830
Got it.
530
00:29:13,750 --> 00:29:15,240
However, now, there must be ambushes
531
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:16,700
all around the city walls.
532
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:18,250
This time, leaving town
533
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:19,830
will get you in grave danger.
534
00:29:19,830 --> 00:29:20,830
I alone might not be able
535
00:29:20,830 --> 00:29:21,880
to fight off many soldiers,
536
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:23,240
but I can definitely outrun them.
537
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,400
There won't be anyone left
for you to use here
538
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:26,720
once I am out of the city.
539
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:27,920
As for your safety...
540
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:30,170
Don't worry.
541
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:31,450
Who's there?
542
00:29:31,590 --> 00:29:33,450
I'll protect the Heir's Consort.
543
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,570
You're also a royal Shadow Envoy?
544
00:29:38,570 --> 00:29:39,440
Not just me.
545
00:29:40,070 --> 00:29:40,790
In Jiankang,
546
00:29:40,790 --> 00:29:42,450
there are many others like me,
547
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:43,240
who were ordered
548
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:44,870
years ago to protect Crown Prince Wenxi.
549
00:29:44,870 --> 00:29:47,400
But Crown Prince Wenxi
has never called on us.
550
00:29:47,660 --> 00:29:49,920
He only hopes that we live our lives well.
551
00:29:59,200 --> 00:29:59,920
Ye Xing?
552
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:03,500
Your Highness!
553
00:30:03,530 --> 00:30:04,760
Prince Jing'an killed Xie Huaigui
and was caught
554
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:06,070
by the Commandant of Justice
on the spot!
555
00:30:06,070 --> 00:30:06,880
While being pursued,
556
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:08,640
Prince Jing'an even severely
injured the Commandant.
557
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:09,550
Prince Qi has ordered
558
00:30:09,550 --> 00:30:11,370
everyone in the mansion to be detained!
559
00:30:11,370 --> 00:30:13,100
What about the Heir's Consort?
560
00:30:17,270 --> 00:30:18,030
He Yuan,
561
00:30:19,110 --> 00:30:20,840
you are not an imperial censor.
562
00:30:20,990 --> 00:30:22,920
It is not your duty to remonstrate.
563
00:30:23,950 --> 00:30:27,030
Has Your Highness forgotten
about the Northern Expedition?
564
00:30:27,030 --> 00:30:27,880
How insolent!
565
00:30:29,070 --> 00:30:30,880
Do not forget whose salary you take.
566
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:31,960
I am completely loyal, and I admonish
567
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:33,310
for the good of the country.
568
00:30:33,310 --> 00:30:35,110
The Xiao family has been
in charge of Beifu for years,
569
00:30:35,110 --> 00:30:37,310
with a distinguished military record
and a credit to the nation.
570
00:30:37,310 --> 00:30:39,550
I hope Your Highness will investigate
the Grand Tutor's death thoroughly,
571
00:30:39,550 --> 00:30:41,200
and not be instigated by Northern Qin
572
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,480
to sow discord
between Your Highness and the Beifu Army,
573
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,010
thus jeopardizing the Northern Expedition.
574
00:30:46,270 --> 00:30:48,270
Such clever yet fallacious remarks
575
00:30:48,350 --> 00:30:49,880
have added to your offense.
576
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,170
Strike him 30 times with a cane
577
00:30:51,170 --> 00:30:52,500
right here in the court.
578
00:30:52,550 --> 00:30:53,160
Yes.
579
00:30:53,270 --> 00:30:54,000
Attendants!
580
00:31:15,490 --> 00:31:17,350
Years ago, when the Capital fell,
581
00:31:17,430 --> 00:31:19,290
countless Ye people were reduced
582
00:31:19,830 --> 00:31:21,290
to slaves of Northern Qin,
583
00:31:21,620 --> 00:31:23,950
living a life
worse than that of an animal.
584
00:31:24,510 --> 00:31:26,640
War has never ceased for 20-odd years.
585
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,350
Now, I have arrested Prince Jing'an
586
00:31:28,350 --> 00:31:30,550
not because of the Grand Tutor's death,
587
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,750
but the purpose of sacrificing
a sinful minister's head
588
00:31:34,750 --> 00:31:36,880
to the upcoming Northern Expedition.
589
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:40,790
I no longer care if you lot
590
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:42,640
suspect my identity,
591
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:44,530
because what I need to do
592
00:31:45,430 --> 00:31:48,670
is let my determination be seen
by all in the world.
593
00:32:01,510 --> 00:32:04,570
Your Highness, a secret report
from the Brocade Guard.
594
00:32:21,210 --> 00:32:21,940
Announce it.
595
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,180
Read it out aloud before the top scholar
of the spring exam.
596
00:32:26,610 --> 00:32:27,200
Yes.
597
00:32:28,590 --> 00:32:30,790
Beacon fires were lit
and an urgent message came from afar:
598
00:32:30,790 --> 00:32:32,400
A Black Cavalry squad of the Beifu Army
599
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:33,660
is traveling day and night,
600
00:32:33,660 --> 00:32:34,880
heading straight for Jiankang.
601
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:36,140
They are moving so fast
602
00:32:36,310 --> 00:32:38,310
that they are now less than 20 li
from Xuan River.
603
00:32:38,310 --> 00:32:39,510
The squad is about to cross the river,
604
00:32:39,510 --> 00:32:40,750
so prepare defenses now.
605
00:32:40,750 --> 00:32:42,210
Let there be no oversight.
606
00:32:44,060 --> 00:32:45,060
Did you hear that?
607
00:32:45,510 --> 00:32:47,510
Xiao Wuyi has deployed a troop back.
608
00:32:47,750 --> 00:32:49,110
Since the Beifu Reform began,
609
00:32:49,110 --> 00:32:50,790
unless ordered by the imperial government,
610
00:32:50,790 --> 00:32:53,070
local garrison troops
cannot leave their stations.
611
00:32:53,070 --> 00:32:54,790
This is a military rule
set by Xiao Wuyi himself,
612
00:32:54,790 --> 00:32:55,920
yet he broke it.
613
00:32:57,680 --> 00:32:59,540
Do you still want to plead for him?
614
00:33:02,830 --> 00:33:04,110
Take this secret report
615
00:33:04,110 --> 00:33:06,040
and have a good look at it yourself!
616
00:33:24,070 --> 00:33:25,750
-I want to get out of here!
-There, there.
617
00:33:25,750 --> 00:33:28,310
-Don't cry.
-I want to get out!
618
00:33:28,660 --> 00:33:30,700
I want to get out of this place!
619
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:33,570
Mom, I want to get out of here!
620
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:55,720
Don't be afraid. Eat it.
621
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:01,440
Any findings?
622
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,200
Ye Xing just sent over a message.
623
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:07,000
The Black Cavalry troop can't be reached
after crossing Xuan River.
624
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,400
The Heir's journey back to the Capital
must be dangerous.
625
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,060
If success can't be guaranteed,
626
00:34:14,060 --> 00:34:14,920
maybe we should
627
00:34:14,980 --> 00:34:15,800
head back to the Northern Border.
628
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,400
Back to the Northern Border?
629
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:19,570
Then what about Prince Jing'an
630
00:34:19,570 --> 00:34:20,770
and Young Master Yao?
631
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:22,030
If you're afraid to die,
632
00:34:22,030 --> 00:34:22,710
I'll risk my life.
633
00:34:22,710 --> 00:34:23,230
You...
634
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:26,860
Your Highness.
635
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:29,139
They are coming for us.
636
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:42,670
Mom, I'm scared.
637
00:34:43,190 --> 00:34:44,000
Don't be.
638
00:34:44,150 --> 00:34:45,010
Where are they?
639
00:34:50,550 --> 00:34:51,320
Still haven't
640
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:52,840
found Xie Jiayu?
641
00:34:53,230 --> 00:34:54,880
General Da has led the Imperial Guard
642
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:56,610
to search the entire Jiankang,
643
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,020
but found no trace of the Heir's Consort.
644
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,670
As the Beifu Reform
has progressed for two years,
645
00:35:01,670 --> 00:35:03,550
the Imperial Guard has taken
a brand new look,
646
00:35:03,550 --> 00:35:06,010
with the ability to seal the city
like a drum.
647
00:35:06,090 --> 00:35:07,150
But Xie Jiayu still
648
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,280
managed to disappear under our noses.
649
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,070
This means Xie Jiayu, Xiao Wuyi,
650
00:35:13,070 --> 00:35:14,200
and even some others
651
00:35:14,510 --> 00:35:15,710
know a secret escape route
652
00:35:15,710 --> 00:35:17,510
in Jiankang that I am unaware of!
653
00:35:17,670 --> 00:35:18,960
It proves that I still don't
654
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,090
have complete control over Jiankang!
655
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,080
It already happens in a city.
656
00:35:24,710 --> 00:35:26,910
What if it spreads to the whole country?
657
00:35:31,030 --> 00:35:33,430
Xiao Wuyi is back
in Jiankang now, isn't he?
658
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:35,030
Yes.
659
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,180
Have Jing Lan keep a close watch
on Xiyue Restaurant
660
00:35:38,190 --> 00:35:39,650
and the Miraculous Craft.
661
00:35:39,710 --> 00:35:40,360
Yes.
662
00:35:41,710 --> 00:35:42,360
Careful.
663
00:35:44,820 --> 00:35:46,370
[Xiyue Restaurant]
664
00:35:46,470 --> 00:35:47,870
Xi-Xiyue Restaurant...
665
00:35:58,110 --> 00:35:59,190
Why is a part missing?
666
00:35:59,190 --> 00:36:00,320
This is a Ghost Lamp.
667
00:36:00,550 --> 00:36:01,840
It has a special meaning.
668
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:03,040
What kind of meaning?
669
00:36:03,230 --> 00:36:04,800
Does it send warning signals or what?
670
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:05,480
Yes.
671
00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,100
It does send warning signals.
672
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:24,840
Keep drinking!
673
00:36:25,710 --> 00:36:28,000
Tonight, none of us can go home
until we're drunk!
674
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:28,920
Let's drink!
675
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:31,920
Come on, let's go.
676
00:36:33,630 --> 00:36:34,090
This...
677
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,630
Xiao Wuyi is cunning and sly.
678
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:41,000
Even if he's back,
679
00:36:41,670 --> 00:36:44,330
he won't walk right into the trap
by coming here.
680
00:36:46,660 --> 00:36:49,840
[Court of Judicial Review]
681
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,550
So we're
in the Court of Judicial Review now.
682
00:36:53,550 --> 00:36:55,110
This is hardly an accomplishment.
683
00:36:55,110 --> 00:36:56,710
Are Prince Jing'an, Princess Jing'an,
684
00:36:56,710 --> 00:36:58,110
and Xiao Yao all in there?
685
00:37:14,190 --> 00:37:14,840
Yaoyao,
686
00:37:15,710 --> 00:37:16,840
it's time to go home.
687
00:37:18,550 --> 00:37:20,010
You figured I'd come here.
688
00:37:20,150 --> 00:37:21,550
I also figured you'd use Xiao Wuyi
689
00:37:21,550 --> 00:37:22,810
to create a diversion.
690
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,630
What, aren't you afraid I'd catch him?
691
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:27,730
You wouldn't be able to.
692
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:28,510
Right.
693
00:37:29,630 --> 00:37:30,890
I did fail to catch him.
694
00:37:31,110 --> 00:37:32,510
He ended up running away.
695
00:37:32,670 --> 00:37:33,470
Nonetheless,
696
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:37,880
I guessed you'd take this chance
to come rescue his family out of prison.
697
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:03,360
Run!
698
00:38:03,510 --> 00:38:04,640
Let's go, Madam Liu.
699
00:38:05,670 --> 00:38:07,040
Xiao Wuyi, why did you come here?
700
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:08,640
I had to, or you can't escape.
701
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:09,880
Xiao Wuyi,
702
00:38:10,070 --> 00:38:11,330
release His Highness!
703
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:12,710
Xiao Wuyi,
704
00:38:13,670 --> 00:38:15,190
is this what you call
705
00:38:15,830 --> 00:38:17,870
"being devoted to the country"?
706
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:23,040
Li Mao, you clearly went way out of line.
707
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:24,000
You were perfectly aware
708
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:25,360
that my father was murdered
by Northern Qin,
709
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:26,550
yet you still seized on it
710
00:38:26,550 --> 00:38:28,060
to take the power over the Beifu Army
711
00:38:28,060 --> 00:38:29,630
and persecute Prince Jing'an's family.
712
00:38:29,630 --> 00:38:31,040
How can you be so unreasonable?
713
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:32,280
Since when has Jiankang ever been a place
714
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:33,720
where being reasonable works?
715
00:38:33,720 --> 00:38:35,840
The secret passage you just went through
716
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:38,190
and the martial masters
hidden in the crowd—
717
00:38:38,190 --> 00:38:38,960
are you keeping them
718
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,090
so you can reason with me in the future?
719
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:44,510
Xiao Wuyi,
720
00:38:45,630 --> 00:38:47,490
tomorrow is the day of execution.
721
00:38:47,940 --> 00:38:49,540
Even if you can escape death,
722
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:50,590
those three
723
00:38:51,190 --> 00:38:53,050
family members of yours will not.
724
00:38:54,150 --> 00:38:54,670
Li Mao,
725
00:38:56,710 --> 00:38:58,710
I've been tolerant enough with you.
726
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:00,420
When we meet again,
727
00:39:02,140 --> 00:39:03,620
I will show you no mercy.
728
00:39:09,390 --> 00:39:10,250
Your Highness!
729
00:39:12,940 --> 00:39:14,200
No need to go after him.
730
00:39:15,590 --> 00:39:18,510
With Prince Jing'an and his other family
in my hands,
731
