[Love Like the Galaxy 2: Episode 16]

Empress, drink some ginger broth to warm up your body first.

Many thanks to Sister A'Heng today.

If you didn't plead for Shaoshang,

His Majesty would not have agreed to meet her.

Empress, I don't like hearing what you just said.

Do you think His Majesty agreed to meet Shaoshang because of me?

It's because His Majesty couldn't bear to see Empress pleading in the rain.

He was afraid your body couldn't bear it. He was concerned about you.

Sister, you don't need to comfort me.

You and His Majesty have the affection of childhood sweethearts.

If not for allying with Prince Qian'an for the sake of the country's people,

he wouldn't have married me.

Nor would your marriage have been ruined.

Our Xuan family is sorry to you all

for snatching your husband.

There's no snatching.

If His Majesty was not willing, could someone force him with a knife?

If there's really a need to be sorry,

then it's His Majesty who should say sorry to me. What has it got to do with Empress?

I, Yue Heng, am not the type of person who will

be angry at the other woman when my husband marries her.

Besides, I was angry at His Majesty back then.

I've already hit and scolded him.

When I couldn't vent my anger anymore,

I even kicked him twice on the bed.

But twenty years have passed. I stopped being angry long ago.

Empress, why are you still holding it in your heart?

Even I like your temperament.

No wonder His Majesty

has deep affection for you.

Empress, you also know

that I'm the most unwilling to be a persuasive talker.

But I have words bottled up in my heart, and I really need to get them off my chest.

Yes. His Majesty and I

have the affection of childhood sweethearts.

But you and His Majesty have the affection of going through thick and thin.

Empress, why must you distinguish

which one is the true affection of a married couple?

You have to make His Majesty

compare superiority between us?

I didn't think of it like that.

It's great then.

His Majesty's love and respect to Empress

is certainly by no means inferior to mine.

In any case, you both have been a married couple for so many years.

How could there be no affection as a married couple at all?

It's just that I'm used to being playful with His Majesty.

We do not distinguish between ruler and subject like you two.

Empress, you must take care of yourself.

Don't be sad anymore.

Only when you are well, His Majesty will be well.

Only when His Majesty is well, the sons and daughters in Changqiu Palace

will be even better.

Empress, Shaoshang is back at Changqiu Palace.

His Majesty gave strict orders for Changqiu Palace to look after Miss Cheng

and not act without authorization.

I have disturbed you tonight, Sister A'Heng.

I should go back, too.

Sister.

You are like my biological sister in my heart.

I hope you can take care.

It's unknown whether your father is dead or alive.

If our Cheng family cannot be exonerated,

you will be the last bloodline of our Cheng family.

Cheng Shaoshang,

listen to me! No matter what happens to the Cheng family,

you must live on!

Live on and live well.

You all leave first.

Don't worry. His Majesty and I

believe it's not possible for your father to surrender to the enemy.

It's just that His Majesty needs some time to find out the truth.

But I'm worried about my mother...

and my father.

I'm worried about my brothers and cousin.

Even my grandmother who usually doesn't treat me well,

I'm also worried about her at this moment.

I want to leave the palace to find them.

I also don't know if they are

eating and sleeping well at the Ministry of Justice.

All right. I'll give you a permit

to send you out of the palace to meet them.

His Majesty does not allow me to leave the palace. Empress is disobeying his decree.

His Majesty is concerned about your well-being.

It's only human nature that you go to see your family.

His Majesty will not blame me.

With you crying like this,

your mother will be so sad when she sees you.

Quickly pull yourself together.

You don't want your family

to see you like this, right?

Thank you, Empress.

Shaoshang will never forget Empress's kindness.

You must take good care of yourself...

and live long.

Empress, why do I feel anxious?

Miss Cheng is only going back to visit her family.

Why did she say it like she's bidding farewell?

She is probably not coming back.

What?

What I gave her, other than the written permit to leave the palace,

there was also a customs clearance document.
(Equivalent to passport in ancient China)

Miss Cheng is leaving the capital city?

This is a crime of defection punishable by death.

Why didn't Empress stop her?

Shaoshang is more resolute and steadfast than we thought.

Once she's decided on something, no one can stop her.

Rather than becoming a barrier that hinders her,

why not become her shield in the back?

But, Empress, you've defied His Majesty's decree for her sake.

I'm afraid you'll get yourself into trouble.

I will go on my own to plead guilty to His Majesty.

Empress!

Empress, look.

Aren't these your written permit and the customs clearance document?

Shaoshang didn't take them with her.

Then-Then how can she get through the checkpoints?

I saw a carving knife and scraps on the desk in her room.

She clearly doesn't want to implicate me.

What a silly child.

[Ministry of Justice Jail]

Stop! This is a forbidden area of the Ministry of Justice.

Unauthorized people aren't allowed inside.

I have a permit from Changqiu Palace, so I'm here to see the prisoners from Marquis Quling's Manor.

Show it to me.

It's checked.

Yes.

Follow me inside.

[Ministry of Justice Jail]

The permit from Changqiu Palace that you just gave is a fake, isn't it?

You actually tried to use it to get through the checkpoint.

How did you know the permit was a fake?

You only just made it in a rush tonight, didn't you?

The ink stain hasn't even dried yet.

Do you think your life is too long already?

You won't be so lucky as to run into me next time.

There won't be a next time.

Thank you for this time.

Where are my mother and the others jailed?

- They are jailed in—
- Thanks.

I'll wait for you here.

I won't drink it.

You...

You vicious woman, you want to choke me to death?

Eldest Aunt is the one who is skilled.

When we were in Marquis Quling's Manor, I could let Mother act willfully.

But we're now in the Ministry of Justice where we're short of doctors and medicine,

everything is out of your hands.

I promised General to take good care of all of you.

When General returns, I, Xiao Yuanyi, will

return every one of you, complete and sound, back to him.

What you say sounds better than singing.
(Your words sound good but they mean nothing)

You are clearly taking revenge against me using this opportunity.

Why would I take revenge against Mother?

Taking revenge on me for not raising Niao Niao with good care.

How did my eldest son marry someone so despicable like you?

You won't be able to choke me to death.

You just want to disgust me to death

with this awful tasting soup, you vicious woman!

Mother, I am not a pious person,

so I would have taken revenge against you already if I had wanted to.

When my husband and I first came home,

we saw Niao Niao was raised to be so uncontrollable, with a perverse temperament.

I once thought of dealing with you along with Madam Ge.

But my husband is a filial son.

I respect him and love him.

Why would I treat his mother unkindly?

Mother, you can live out a good life in the Cheng family

not because I fear you.

It's all because you are my husband's mother.

That's why I support you and serve you.

A mother-in-law and daughter-in-law come from different families.

If it weren't for this man, we wouldn't have been tied up together.

You and I were strangers to begin with.

Why would I be afraid of you?

You're finally telling the truth.

It's because of my son that you treat me respectfully.

Has Mother done anything that commands respect?

Me?

In my whole life, the most respectful thing that I've done is giving birth to and raising three sons.

Haven't I done that, too? Haven't I given birth, too?

I even have one more daughter than Mother.

So what?

If you think you can be a high and mighty lady just because you've birthed sons,

how is your life different from that of a mare?

You...

You are scolding me using the opportunity that my son isn't here.

Fine. Fine.

Once my son returns, watch how I will complain about you.

Mother, you can scold all you want.

Let's see if you can scold faster than my hand.

Mother, you scold once, I'll feed you once.

Yang Yang! Yang Yang!

I'm not...

Your breathing sounds strong.

You must be pretty comfortable inside the Ministry of Justice.

Niao Niao?

DIdn't I order you to leave us alone?

Why are you here?

Why should she leave us alone?

Niao Niao, you are about to marry a great general.

Find a way to save all the Cheng family out of here.

Grandmother, Mother, Older Cousin, Older Brothers.

Don't worry. I'll definitely think of a way to vindicate Father.

No, no. You must not cause additional trouble.

Protect yourself. I can only be at ease when you don't make trouble.

Mother, I've already done the divination.

Despite the turbulence, our family will be unscathed.

Niao Niao is the turning point.

Shut up!

Niao Niao, hurry.

Don't listen to Grandmother.

Hurry and go back to Changqiu Palace.

I'm here to take care of them

until your father returns. It's most important for you to take care of yourself.

Understand?

Are you done talking yet?

Let me say a few words.

Niao Niao, let Grandmother see if you've lost weight.

Grandmother, we just got jailed for half a day.

Even if Niao Niao is a ball, she couldn't have lost weight so quickly.

Shut up. What do you know?

I told you not to talk nonsense.

Niao Niao, come closer to Grandmother.

I can't see you clearly.

Come.

Niao Niao, I have hidden some personal money.

They're my most treasured items.

You should hurry and go back home to find it. Take the money

to save your father and the two uncles. Do you hear?

Grandmother, I've been mistaken about you.

You are not selfish.

Save as many of them as you can.

You must remember, save the men first!

Men!

Take this road.

- This road won't work.
- Why not?

This is the only road. If you don't take it, where would you go?

The bandits are here. How do you go past them?

Young Lord, there are many bandits along this road.

If we take this road to go to Shouchun, we must get rid of the bandits first.

After all, in this expedition, there aren't just our buddies

but also those sons from the renowned families in court.

If any mishap happens to them, those nobles will blame it all on Young Lord later.

It's a hassle to bring these burdens.

Young Lord has been considerate of them.

They don't even appreciate it.

They say that our Ling Army's prudence is incompetence.

They even say we are too chicken to suppress the bandits.

It's fine.

I have made arrangements.

What arrangements?

Reporting!

General Ling, those sons of noble families ignored our discouragement

and have gone to suppress the bandits on their own.

We released the news that the bandits won a huge victory and captured the noble families' sons.

Peng Kun believed it.

He wants to plunder the provisions while we suffered losses.

This time, he can come but won't go back.

General, that Ling Buyi isn't as fierce as rumored.

They are still desperately preparing to save their people at this time and not expecting us to have taken the provisions.

Perfect. While they are fighting with the bandits, we can be the third party that wins without effort.

Ling Buyi?

General Liang, as you said,

the third party wins, but we are the third party.

You... are the turtle in the urn.

Ling Buyi, how dare you use those noble families' sons as bait to lure me! Are you not afraid that

those bandits will kill them and the court officials will blame you?

Who told you that they were captured by the bandits?

What?

You are the ones that harmed the noble sons? So shameful!

If I hadn't dispatched people to capture those noble sons,

how could I convince Peng Kun that my vanguard troops were defeated and captured,

while I had to focus on saving people?

Ling Buyi, your villainous ways are insidious and cunning!

Look at you wearing a chicken-like armor, how are you a general?

You don't even deserve to carry shoes for our General Peng!

It's not chicken, but mandarin duck!

It's clearly chicken!

It's mandarin duck, not chicken.

But you were right. If those sons of noble families find out

that I pretended to be the bandit to capture them and lure you to the bait,

it's true that I won't be able to explain to the court officials.

Therefore, only a dead person's mouth is the most reliable.

You can't kill me! Didn't you capture me alive to find out about the situation in Shouchun?

If you kill me, then you won't know anything.

With the defense set up at Shouchun, you won't be able to conquer it for about a year.

But the food supply at Shouchun

is already unsustainable, isn't it?

In Shouchun, we don't lack anything!

If you really didn't lack anything, then Peng Kun could have just sat tight inside the city to wait for our attack.

Why did he dispatch you to leave the city and take the risk?

The provisions that you were taking back to the city

is to supply Shouchun, isn't it?

If General Liang still doesn't provide any useful information,

I won't be able to help you then.

Take him away.

[Map of Shouchun]

Young Lord, Shouchun has set up defenses on all four sides of the city.

The city's gate is a wooden portal that is pulled up and lowered by ropes.

When it's lowered, it is used as a drawbridge.

There is also a moat outside the city. If this gate isn't opened, it won't be easy for the troops to enter.

Have no fear, we have a temporary bridge for the siege.

Once the temporary bridge is set up, let the Black-Armored Guards and the cavalry run across and kill them all.

We can't use the cavalry.

They have antler blocks and horse traps.

The best war plan to defeat the enemy is with strategy, followed by diplomacy. The last resort is to conquer by using troops.

Attacking the city is the worst plan. It's not worth it losing troops to take Shouchun.

What's this about using strategy?

What is Young Lord talking about?

It means that by amassing the troops under the city, there will be many dead and wounded.

It's a taboo in deploying the troops.

Young Lord also cannot bear for that to happen.

Amassing what?

Older Brother, I don't understand what you are talking about with Young Lord.

Just tell me if we are fighting or not?

- No fighting.
- No fighting?

We came all this distance from the capital to Shouchun, just to not fight?

Black-Armored Guards are all buddies who have fought through life and death with Young Lord.

Young Lord doesn't want us to easily take a fall at Shouchun.

My guess is that Peng Kun will continue to send people out of the city to search for provisions.

We only need to cut off his backup forces.

Shouchun will fall on its own within a month.

Within a month... how many days is that?

Young Lord, Miss Cheng is still waiting for you to get married.

Don't worry. You'll get to drink at the wedding banquet.

Reporting!

The capital sent a letter. Tongniu County is lost.

County Governor Yan Zhong and General Cheng Shi took 2,000 refined copper to defect to the enemy.

Yan Zhong and Cheng Shi are missing without a trace. His Majesty has detained Marquis Quling's family in jail.

What about Cheng Shaoshang?

Miss Cheng escaped out of the capital overnight. Her traces are unknown.

Come, child. Listen to me.

That day, County Governor Yan took his family

along with that General Cheng Shi, and dragged a cart full of stuff out of the city.

He said he would return after half a day.

Who could have guessed that, after half a day,

someone took County Governor Yan's seal to open the city gate.

Once the city gate was opened, they saw

it was Shouchun's rebel general Ma Rong.

After Ma Rong occupied Tongniu County,

he tied up the County Magistrate Li Feng and Yin Lao,

who refused to surrender and paraded them on the streets.

You don't know this, all along the way, Li Feng yelled and cursed,

saying that Yan Zhong and General Cheng surrendered to the enemy.

All the spectators heard it very clearly.

Li Feng would rather die than surrender,

why didn't Ma Rong kill him?

He didn't kill him.

Ma Rong only paraded Li Feng and the others around the city once

and put them in jail. Who knows if they were killed or not.

Based on what you said, Ma Rong occupied Tongniu County but didn't harm the people.

Even Li Feng, who would rather die than surrender, is only locked up in jail.

That's right. I didn't expect that

Ma Rong was actually not a bad person.

Old sir, you are going to the city to collect the night soil.
(A polite term for feces and such)

Will they search your cart?

Tongniu is lost. We haven't taken Shouchun yet.

His Majesty has no time for distractions, so this case is temporarily put on hold.

He only ordered to have Li Feng tried after Tongniu is restored.

Except, Censor Zuo insisted that Miss Cheng absconded in fear of being found guilty.

It has further confirmed Marquis Quling's betrayal.

Such nonsense!

Young Lord, that Censor Zuo harbors hatred because you beat him up last time.

That's why he is using his official duty to take revenge by vilifying Young Lady.

Why not attack forcefully and get a quick resolution?

This won't do.

Our army buddies followed me on the expedition. Their parents and children are waiting for them to return home.

They shouldn't lose their lives for my own family.

Young Lord, each day's delay will add more danger to Young Lady.

We can't keep delaying.

She is my future wife. Her concerns are also mine.

Even so, I can't involve the whole army because of me.

I have a plan for this matter.

Go, bring Liang Yi.

What now?

You want to trick me to tell you about Shouchun's defense?

I advise you to save your effort. I won't betray my general.

I don't need you to betray anyone. I only need you to answer one question.

What question?

I'm asking you...

is this a chicken or mandarin duck?

Didn't I say...

Answer it,

you'll be released.

Don't answer it,

you'll be killed.

Mandarin duck?

Release him.

[Shouchun City]

What are you doing?

These are the provisions that cost me a lot of buddies.

Don't ruin them!

General, because Ling Buyi is nearby

that's why we have to check strictly to prevent spies from coming in.

Everything looks normal!

General, you can go.

Let me ask you something.

Do you think a chicken and mandarin duck look alike?

General, they don't look alike.

I also think they are not similar.

There must be something wrong with him.

General, who are you talking about?

Let's go!

[Shouchun]

Who's there?

Huo Chong!

[Peng Kun]

Are you here to take my life?

It wasn't me!

It wasn't me! I wasn't the one who wanted to harm you!

Unable to eat or rest in peace. Unable to sleep during the day or night.

General Peng, you have a guilty conscience, indeed.

You're not Huo Chong.

Who are you?

General Peng has been hiding in Shouchun for too long.

Naturally, you don't recognize me.

I am Ling Buyi.

I never thought that Emperor Wen would send you to lead an expedition to suppress me.

I advise you to hurry and leave here.

If something happens to me, your father will not get off easily.

What do you mean?

General, it's late in the night. How come you still haven't slept?

Madam, run for your life!

Guards! There's an assassin!

There's an assassin!

Hurry!

Ling Buyi, should I praise your bold arrogance,

or laugh at your utter stupidity?

You dared to barge into my Shouchun City alone?

I'm afraid you don't want your life anymore.

Now, with just my one command,

you will be pierced into a sieve.

No matter how skilled your martial arts are, there's absolutely no way you will escape my Shouchun City.

Before they kill me, my sword can be faster.

I can simply exchange one life for another.

Do you want to test me?

Has your father never told you,

that we are bound by the same rope?

If I die, what benefit does it bring him?

What do you mean?

If you want to know the truth, let me go!

If I die, no one will ever know

the truth of the lone city's destruction.

Soldiers who defend Shouchun City, listen to my command!

I am willing to die with Ling Buyi.

As long as he dares to take even half a step outside of Shouchun City,

kill him without mercy along with me!

Yes!

Black-Armored Guards, heed your orders!

Young Lord is definitely inside!

- Follow me in!
- Attack!

- Scale the ladders! Breach the gate! Attack!
- Attack!

Ling Buyi, your buddies are just outside of the city!

With my one command, they will all be buried with me here today.

Archers, heed your orders! Don't worry if I live or die!

Kill all those scumbags outside of the city!

If one enters, kill one!

If two enter, kill a pair!

Yes!

Watch out for the arrows!

Brothers! Young Lord is inside the city!

Even if we die outside the city today, you must open the gate!

This gate is called a suspended gate.

It can't be opened from the outside.

You only have one blade in your hands. How many people can you kill?

Attack!

Ling Buyi. Kill him!

Go! Stop him!

Stop him!

Go! Stop him!

Don't let him near the mechanism!

Go! Go!

Kill him!

You useless bunch! Can't even stop one person!

Go!

Young Lord opened the gate!

Brothers, attack!

This soft armor is made out of copper wire weaved with hemp. It's soft

and resistant to blades. At a crucial time, it shall protect you.

- Young Lord!
- Young Lord!

A'Fei!

A'Qi!

I'm unharmed.

How many casualties?

Thanks to Young Lord opening the gate at a crucial time, there were not many casualties.

Immediately escort Peng Kun to the capital to stand trial.

Those with hands stained with my men's blood, kill on the spot!

For the others,

if they didn't kill my soldiers and abuse the commoners, they can be left alive.

Yes.

Ever since Young Lord has Young Lady, his heart has become softer.

Shut up!

Young Lord, then should we return to the capital now?

No. Black-Armored Guards, heed my orders!

Yes!

Immediately follow me to Tongniu!

- Yes!
- Young Lord, I discovered that Peng Kun's Deputy General Ma Rong captured Tongniu County.

But within two days, he surrendered after being urged by the Lou family's eldest son, Lou Ben.

General Cheng is missing. All of the Cheng family is imprisoned.

Shaoshang definitely won't sit by and wait for death.

She didn't flee from the capital city,

she must be trying to investigate the truth. She must be in Tongniu.
