=Episode 19=

Li Chengyu.

These people are here to save you.

And none of them will get away with it!

Let's get started.

(Order)

Execute him!

(Huaikang Gate)

Stop! Stop it!

Here comes His Majesty's decree!

Hyah!

"As the General God of War, Li Chengyu

has concealed his identity

for a secret operation

on my command.

Today marks the end of the operation.

The Sword of God of War shall be returned to him

and his true identity

shall be reinstated."

Release the arrow! Shoot!

(Huaikang Gate)

Cold Tiger!

Cold Tiger!

Retreat!

Cold Tiger!

Cold Tiger!

Chengyu.

You took that arrow for me.

Now I've taken all these arrows for you.

Well, Chengyu,

you forbid me to cry,

so I'm not going to cry now.

I don't fear death.

So don't cry, Chengyu.

It turns out you're a general.

No wonder I always found you brilliant.

I'm proud

to have a general

as my brother.

I'm taking you to the capital, so you can be an official.

I can't wait until then.

Cold Tiger!

I don't care.

I'm going to stay at Qingfeng Stronghold.

It is my home,

and you are my brother.

Bark!

Woof!

Well,

Chengyu,

aren't you going to let me tag along?

I'll come again when I'm free.

The Sword of God of War

slays warlords

and eradicates traitors.

(General.)

(Hand over evidence of the Chancellor's rebellion)

(and Chen Xinrou shall be captured.)

What's with all those bones, Cold Tiger?

It's an honor.

Since you own many, let me have one of them.

I can't simply do that.

Here.

I've been wearing this for years,

so it's got my smell.

How was it?

The body has been buried.

Cold Tiger was sloven.

So make sure his tomb looks nice.

Yes, sir.

Go on.

Are you all right, General?

What's the matter?

His Majesty sent me here

to help you out.

After Minister Li Aotian took over,

I returned to the palace.

Has Minister Li been away all this time?

Why are you in this state?

Li Aotian?

Chengyu.

Chengyu!

Are you all right?

What's happened?

Why are you injured?

Minister Li, why are you...

It's a long story.

His Majesty ordered me to come and help Chengyu.

But it's been a tough journey.

Upon my arrival in the city, I learned about Chengyu's injury.

That's why I rushed here.

Are you all right, Chengyu?

Aotian.

What's exactly going on here?

I managed to have an audience with His Majesty in the capital.

He wanted me to come and help you.

After all, we're brothers.

Yet I ran into some problems on my way here.

I ended up having a fight in the woods

and getting injured.

Thus, the delay.

Come to think of it,

perhaps the Chancellor purposely did that

to stop us from seeing each other.

Then what's with the evidence that was sent back to the palace?

Why did the Chancellor end up getting convicted?

I have no idea.

Weren't you the one who investigated it?

Anyway, congratulations on your achievement.

No way.

I must take Xinrou back to the capital and clear things up.

I'll come with you.

Aotian!

Looks like I've run out of strength.

I always end up holding you back, Chengyu.

I'm sorry.

Forget it.

Too much has happened today.

You should get some rest.

Guard.

Help Minister Li back to his quarters.

Please spare me, General!

Who is the mastermind?

Speak!

I don't know.

I really don't know.

How smart of you.

You know keeping quiet won't get you killed.

Keep an eye on him!

Please spare me, General!

(County Office)

(Come to think of it,)

(perhaps the Chancellor purposely did that)

(to stop us from seeing each other.)

(But the evidence submitted clearly showed the Chancellor was innocent.)

(As long as it was him,)

(the truth didn't matter.)

(Could it be him?)

What are you doing?

I'm here to kill you!

Have you lost your mind?

You got our leader thrown in jail.

You tricked us!

I can't explain everything right now.

But you have to trust me.

I never meant to harm Xinrou. On the contrary, I'm trying to save her.

Then what are you waiting for?

Xinrou is the Chancellor's daughter.

She's been jailed for treason.

If I break her out now,

it'll only show she's guilty.

Tomorrow, I'll take her back to the capital

and testify for her.

I'll let you visit her,

so you'll know she's safe.

Leader!

Xinrou!

Xinrou!

Minmin.

You must've been starving for days.

Here, I made you your favorite pastries.

Sit down and try some.

I'm tired of this flavor.

Make me something new after this.

Xinrou.

Are you...

Here's some incense.

It drives away insects.

Take it, Xinrou.

I'm not afraid of bugs.

I even catch them for medicine.

Got it?

By the way, Xinrou,

they say you're the Chancellor's daughter

and tied to the treason case.

Is that true?

I don't know either.

Years ago, I fell into the river and lost my memory.

When I came around, I was already at the Shihou Stronghold.

Maybe I really am the Chancellor's daughter.

Oh, right, where's Manyue?

Minister Li.

Who are you?

Have you really forgotten me?

I know your whole family was wronged.

I can get you out of here,

but you must work for me.

So it was you.

I knew you'd remember me.

You saved me from this very prison

and had someone tattoo this mark then.

You then sent me to Qingfeng Stronghold

to be your messenger.

Though we only met once,

I will never forget

your kindness.

Miss.

It's a cold and damp night.

You wouldn't want to catch a chill.

I was only carrying out His Majesty's orders.

By the way,

did you help Chengyu at Qingfeng Stronghold?

I feel ashamed.

Aside from delivering messages,

I couldn't help him much.

May I ask if Chen Xinrou really took part in the rebellion?

Minister Li.

Your cough has gotten worse.

I'll search for the best physician to cure you.

She hasn't sent word since she left for the capital.

We've sent her a letter.

Let's hope she's safe and sound.

Protect yourself.

But this thing ensures your safety.

Put it on.

Where's Li Chengyu?

He...

Reporting!

General.

Sir.

Chen Xinrou has poisoned the jailer.

She said she'd kill the jailer unless she sees you, General.

What?

♪If you've never seen a bloom, you can't know hope♪

♪If you weren't here, I wouldn't have come♪

♪On a soda-lit night, only the wind knows my love♪

♪It's a helpless kind of feeling♪

♪Like a feather of morning love falling into the deep sea♪

♪Being unnoticed, yet I still tell you I love you♪

♪But my confession is drowned out by the wind♪

♪You can't hear it♪

♪I also want to rush forward♪

♪To give you all my heart♪

♪Yet it's pushed away by you♪

♪Whether love is spoken or left unspoken♪

♪I know you understand♪

♪It's just an accident♪

♪You longed to wander once more, by my side through the throng♪

♪I know you weren't really here for me♪

♪Yet still, who else could bring a surprise quite like you♪

♪After you left, I didn't want to let go♪

♪You brushed past me, leaving your trace in the crowd♪

♪I didn't shut you out♪

♪But I couldn't wait for you to stop♪

♪Yet I seem to clutch you, unable to let you fade into the crowd♪
