One and Only

Episode 24

Throughout my life,

I've never let anyone down

but Eleven.

Eleven

General Cui,

have you decided?

A soldier must be upright above all else, even if it means death.

I believe my parents

will understand and forgive me.

Let's go.

Under the heavens and in front of the three armies,

I make an oath that

I will give up my family name Cui

and give myself the surname of the Junior Prince of Nanchen and follow him.

For the state,

for the people

and for those generals and soldiers

who sacrificed their lives.

We will start the rebellion in Shouyang today!

Rebel! Rebel! Rebel!

That night when my husband left,

it was snowing heavily

in Qinghe,

just like this.

Your Ladyship,

we've got news from the young master.

He gave up his family name Cui

and started a rebellion in Shouyang.

His Majesty issued an edict to

offer amnesty and enlistment to the young master

and that he shall not be killed.

Now that he has given up his family name Cui.

Will it displease His Majesty?

Knowing Feng's personality

he will not submit.

Since he has made his decision,

then let him be.

But,

he gave up his family name

at will

to follow the Junior Prince of Nanchen.

How unrestrained he is.

Yeah.

He's not like us

who have too many worries.

Is there any message from Mr. Huan?

Not yet.

Let's wait for some more days.

Yes.

Your Highness, were you awake all night?

Prepare some tea.

Yes.

It's indeed hard for you

to accept the fact that

the royal mansion has rebelled.

Here, have some water.

Your cousin has also rebelled.

If you don't believe me, you may ask your mother.

Among your six branches,

only Wushui branch

has hundreds of members

taking posts as Royal Guards in the royal court

and posts in different counties and prefectures.

How many people will die

as Cui Feng rebels?

The Gao family was eliminated due to one person.

The Qi family was destroyed due to one person.

Do you want the Cui family

to follow in their footsteps?

Here, drink some water.

Go get breakfast ready.

Yes.

When I was a kid, they said

you were good at Qin and painting.

I planned to ask you to play the Qin

on the day when you are conferred the title.

Now it seems

you won't be able to do it.

I'm going to summon the imperial doctor.

She didn't utter a word before me.

Why doesn't she

think for me?

He's been a Regional Prince

guarding the Western State for over 20 years.

No emperor would dare to keep him alive!

Your Majesty.

Zhousheng Chen.

But I ordered

him to be killed by dismemberment

in front of all people.

Your Majesty.

She is the Crown Princess,

while I am

a fake Crown Prince.

Do flowers bloom in lunar December?

I saw Shiyi's wound in her hand.

If Your Majesty wants to have the support of

the Yang family and Zhangsun family,

then do not agitate her anymore

before the conferment.

I have only one daughter.

Everything I do is for her.

Lady Cui Wenjun.

She doesn't believe me.

She has been living in the royal mansion for many years.

It's impossible that she would believe in such a short while

that the

royal mansion rebelled against you

If Your Majesty does not have enough patience,

why do you force her to stay in the palace?

I know my daughter the best.

Leave her be for several days.

She will figure it out.

I understand.

Honored Concubine ate a lot in the morning.

She watched the snow in the yard

for an hour.

She also ordered the servants to find a ladder,

intending to go up to the roof of the side palace hall to watch the snow.

But she was stopped by

Lady Li.

As Cui Wenjun said,

she will come to her senses slowly.

Ultimately,

a mother would know their daughter best.

Clean the roof of the side palace hall

and have the Royal Guards stay guard.

Let her watch the snow if she wants to.

From today on, as long as she doesn't go out of the palace,

she can do anything she likes.

Yes.

The royal army is back.

The royal army is back.

Why do you stay in Pinyin?

Flooding of the Jiang State.

The fierce battle in the Shuo State.

Six expeditions to the Dai State.

They all forgot your deeds.

They only remember you were upright, handsome,

and were praised by the people

which threatened them.

I'm here to send the news of victory.

I heard that you didn't sleep well

for more than ten days for it.

Congratulations on the complete victory.

Throughout my life, I've never let anyone down, but Eleven.

All your life you had no wife and no children.

And for what?

Your Majesty.

His Majesty ordered that

you can't meet the Honored Concubine.

He became the emperor because of my family.

Don't you know that?

Get out!

The Wushui branch migrated southward secretly.

My father sent troops

to trap them within the border.

No one knows this

besides His Majesty and me.

Your family name is very prestigious

among the scholars.

If your family moves southward,

Beichen will truly perish.

Why do I tell you about this?

Perhaps I want to

threaten you with the lives

of the Cui family,

because I'm afraid you would kill

Liu Zixing on your wedding day.

If so, I wouldn't be able to become the empress.

Or because

we were friends

for a night.

If I were you,

no matter how painful it is,

I must know the whole truth.

Thanks.

In the past,

no Honored Concubine

has had such a grand conferring ceremony.

Others don't know

His Majesty's heart,

but I, as his wet nurse,

knows that he cares very much about you.

You'll be busy for a whole day tomorrow.

Please sleep early.

-Please. -Please.

Please.

Everyone.

Lady Cui Wenjun.

It has been a long time since we last met.

General Yang is as strong as before.

Today, Honored Concubine Cui will be conferred with the title.

It's truly something joyous.

Thank you, General Zhangsun.

Though, she's not conferred with the title of empress.

Even if the Jin family has the title of empress,

they can't hold on to it for long.

In our eyes, only Honored Concubine Cui

deserves the position.

-Yeah. -Yeah.

Generals, please come with me to the palace.

Please.

-Please. -Please.

It's not until today that I truly think

I will marry you.

Lady Cui Wenjun.

I want to have a word with her Honored Concubine alone.

Yes.

Your father appeared in my dream last night.

He had never shouted at me

from the day when he married me

to when I gave birth to you

and to when he was forced

to leave.

But last night,

he blamed me.

He blamed me for sending you to the palace.

He said if you stayed in Zhousheng Chen's royal palace,

you would have lived a free life.

Shiyi,

I was wrong.

I am sorry.

Mr. Huan is waiting for you in Nanxiao.

When you reach the south,

do not turn back.

Mother,

please forgive my disobedience.

Chengming Gate

Outside the gate of Great Xia,

there are over 2,000 scholars of well-known families

from places outside the capital.

They are waiting to kowtow to Your Highness.

Greetings, Honored Concubine Cui!

The Prince of Pingqin is waiting for you

behind the scholars.

When they kowtow to you later,

you only need to

run out along the middle path.

The scholars dare not stop you as they don't know about the truth.

The generals and soldiers are all my trusted subordinates.

Today, I will fight a way out

for you.

His Majesty has issued a proclamation.

Honored Concubine Cui was born into a noble family

and has the support of scholars.

Today, she will be conferred the title of Honored Concubine.

People in Beichen are allowed to

pay their respects to her outside the city gate.

Greetings, Honored Concubine.

When Miss Cui runs out later,

we will rush in.

Got it.

Miss Cui.

Why is Miss Cui going back?

She doesn't want to get us into trouble.

Why is the Honored Concubine going up to the palace gate?

I guess she wants to see

the people in the city more clearly.

As a woman,

It's a great honor for her

to be able to go up to the city gates

and be worshiped by the people.

Mom, I know

♫I don't seek glory of the multitude♫

you want to save me

with your own life.

But I can't escape.

♫I only want to have a quiet conscience♫

I can't let you die for me,

nor can I put

♫With a pot of liquor, I travel all over the world♫

nearly 1,000 family members in Qinghe County into trouble.

♫The horse's hooves sound on the battlefield♫

♫I am griping a great ambition in my hand♫

♫I don't fear the rain and wind and have an inflexible will♫

I, Yang Shao,

will see you off.

♫As a general, I may forget any wound on the shoulder♫

♫I am willing to stick to a ray of light for a lifetime♫

♫Never wish to have my fame spread far and wid♫

Since I went to the Nanchen Royal Mansion,

my master had given me lessons

♫Never wish to be the unmatched in the world♫

while my senior brothers and sisters cared about me.

I have never been able to return the favor.

Now my master has died unjustly

♫Half of my life is spent guarding the frontier♫

and my senior brothers and sisters have been killed.

My enemy is near to me but I can't kill them.

♫Never regret it♫

It is already painful enough.

I really can't marry him.

♫I got ambitions in the palm of my hand♫

I'm sorry for letting you down, mother.

Thank you for raising me up.

♫Fearless of hardships, my blood boils♫

Please allow me to

give up my family name Cui.

Please remove my name from the family book.

♫As a general, I may forget any wound on the shoulder♫

Thus,

there is no unfilial daughter in the Cui family.

♫I am willing to stick to a ray of light for a lifetime♫

Shiyi

is just Eleven of the Nanchen Royal Mansion.

I haven't figured out how to teach you.

Because you're the first disciple

I accepted seriously.

When I acknowledged you as my master,

♫Despite the fierce wind and waves♫

I couldn't call you Master.

I will make it up today.

♫I swear to take the burden to protect my homeland♫

Master.

When I come back next time,

try to call me Master, okay?

You may also call me

Zhousheng Chen.

I've liked someone

♫The sun and moon know my heart♫

since my childhood.

I've never mentioned him to anyone else

besides my mother.

♫Forgive me as I never retreat on the battlefield♫

I dare not tell others.

♫There will be a grand scene of prosperity♫

♫I don't expect people to praise me, and I just want to have a clear conscience♫

Nanchen Royal Army,

from its chief commander

to every soldier,

are all loyal and devoted to

serving the state and people.

God will uphold justice and punish the evil.

The injustice Nanchen Royal Army suffered

will be cleared someday.

Zhousheng Chen,

I'm here to marry you.

If we meet again in the next life,

hope you can come to marry me.

Will you?

I will take your silence

as a yes.

Eleven!

♫The shadow lingers, the sudden downpour comes♫

♫Been long waiting♫

♫Picked up a dream, coming for whom♫

♫My concern is put on the inkstone♫

♫Can't bear it, my heart is burning♫

♫The dependence I feel♫

♫I'm suffering with you♫

♫Suffered so much from this sea of pain♫

♫I can leap down for you♫

♫Stain my painful love red♫

♫The rivers and mountains, the ostentatious world♫

♫Swords and horses, leave the dust of this world behind♫

♫Stories scatter like smoke and flowers♫

♫The snow falling, the sand flying♫

♫It's hard to leave him unattached♫

Shiyi!

Shiyi!

Shiyi!

What happened to Shiyi?

Miss...Miss Cui.

Tell me!

Miss Cui jumped off

the city gate.

General.

The third year, Emperor Dongling used the reason that Jin Zhen'er had given birth to a baby

to invite Jin Rong to the palace and ambushed him.

You...

After Jin Rong died,

Empress Donling overtook Honored Concubine Cui as the empress after her death.

In order to build a good relation with Nanxiao, Princess Xinghua asked to marry there herself.

Not long after that, vassals from around the world launched an offensive and the Central state is helpless.

Empress Dongling is worried and outrageous.

And He died in the Palace in the Central State without a son.

Three years later, General Zhangsun Jie and Yang Shao negotiated a peace treaty,

to support Liu Zizhen as the emperor and help him establish the capital in the Central State.

Hail!

Long live the emperor!

Hail!

Long live the emperor!

Hail once more!

Long live the emperor!

Kowtow!

Western State

You don't want revenge anymore?

His Highness was right.

One seeks vengeance as he can't let it go.

I have let it go.

Feng Qiao,

bids you farewell.

Please take care, Advisor Xie!

Decades years later

General-in-chief, let me help you.

Leave.

Yes.

The generals have left?

Even General Xie wouldn't stay?

He doesn't have any families

in the Western State.

Why would he stay?

General-in-chief.

This is...

No need to introduce me.

Yes.

This is my old friend.

He's about to travel far

and has come here to offer incense.

It seems

you have a close relationship with our temple.

Yeah.

I don't feel safe

if I don't come here before departure.

Azure Dragon Temple

This place has been abandoned for a long time.

♫Maybe it's the snow falling without a sound♫

It'll be a good deed if we can rebuild it.

We did some surveying just now.

♫Maybe it's the flower in the mirror without a trace♫

With this place as the axis,

a gate and halls could be built there.

♫I've seen all the scenes of the passing years♫

Front yard.

Back yard.

Around it we can build

♫They're not as good as you, not as good as you♫

Hall of Four Great Heaven Kings.

Hall of Ten Judges of Hell

♫There is grace in your eyebrows♫

and an Arhat Hall.

♫I'll spend my whole life looking for it♫

♫Don't blame me for the sporadic sweet talk♫

Yun.

♫I wake up from my dreams and I'm even colder♫

Master, let's go in.

♫My heart that can't stand being away from love♫

♫Hides nothing from you♫

Azure Dragon Temple

♫The scene I look down for♫

♫Gets clear after saying goodbye♫

♫Every glimpse means missing you♫

♫Even if to be a stranger to you♫

♫Been a mediocre person all my life♫

Shiyi

♫I just want you won't feel sad when looking back♫

♫When everything is calm♫

♫I can see who's under the moon♫

♫Turns out we've already been destined♫

Feel happy to be with you.
