[The Ingenious One]

[Episode 35 Turn the Tide]

Who am I?

Master.

Heart Devouring Powder is such a good thing.

Sit.

Now that I look at you closely,

I have to say you're pretty.

It's a pity

that Yun Xiang got you before me.

I can do whatever I want with you now.

Although it's less fun,

when I think of Yun Xiang's face

when you meet him in disheveled clothes

after I get everything I want,

I'm filled with excitement.

I've had many enemies in my life.

None of them has ever underestimated me.

Where do you get the nerve to assassinate me?

No time for trash talk.

Get her!

Yuanjie.

Mother, leave this to me.

Keep yourself safe.

Stay out of it!

Even if it may cost me my life,

I won't allow anyone to mess with the Lingyuan Sect!

Yuanjie!

You had lots of nerve

to poison a poison master.

This poison is called Hidden Cold Scale.

Whether you eat it or inhale it,

you'll stop breathing

as if you're dead.

Do you want to know

where you'll wake up in three days?

I'm itching to slice your throat now,

but you're still of use to me.

What you said just now disgusted me.

How should I teach you a lesson?

You're effeminate.

How about

I take something that you don't need?

Kou Yuanjie gave you the Heart Devouring Powder, right?

Mother, don't blame me.

They gave me no choice.

I wish I could gouge out my eyes.

I wasted my whole life

chasing fame

and didn't raise you well.

Mother.

I did it for the Lingyuan Sect.

Mother.

Mother!

Mother!

If Kou Lianyi finds out,

she won't let me get away with it.

She won't let me get away with it.

Master Kou, leave this place now.

I'll take care of the rest.

Mother.

Mother!

Mother.

Mother.

-Mother. -Both you and I are late.

Do you recognize this knife, Lady Kou?

Your brother has run away with the seal.

You saw through my plan last time.

I was so surprised.

Why don't you take a guess again?

What do you think I'll do next?

You'll tell all the branches of the Lingyuan Sect

to get prepared for wars

so that you can rise up when it's time.

Go on.

To the north of Yangzhou is the Central Plain.

Roads there lead everywhere.

So when the war starts, it'll definitely come under siege.

Nandu, on the contrary,

has the river as a natural barrier

and supplies are abundant.

So next, you'll

order the troops in Yangzhou

to cross the river and guard Nandu.

You'll be able to sustain a prolonged war and expand your reach.

Then what?

I don't know.

You don't?

No.

You guessed right.

I'll go to Yangzhou to deploy the troops soon.

Come with me.

Prince Fu.

What's it?

Something happened to Mr. Nangong.

Where is Kou Yuanjie?

I couldn't find him anywhere.

I'm afraid he's run away.

It's the Kou family's family business that he killed his mother.

I won't interfere with it.

But Kou Lianyi

killed an important disciple of the Yuntai Sest.

That can't go unanswered.

Your disciple tried to poison me and assault me

when I came to meet him.

I don't think the Yuntai Sect needs a pest like him.

Yun Xiang.

Kou Lianyi killed your senior.

What should we do about her?

She should pay with her life.

But if Kou Lianyi dies,

Kou Yuanjie won't last long.

In that case,

the Lingyuan Sect will be left without a leader.

I'm afraid that would be a problem.

So you want me to let it slide?

I just don't want you to be seen as uncaring and reckless.

Kou Yuanjie is so ambitious.

That's surprising.

Forget it.

Nangong Fang indulged in lust.

He violated the sect rules.

But given that he was a disciple of the Yuntai Sect,

let him be buried in the back mountain

with Mo Bufan and Kang Qiao.

Kou Lianyi, you have to know

that death is too severe a punishment for Nangong Fang.

What's done is done. I won't punish you.

If you see your brother after going back,

have a nice talk with him.

You have your ways of holding Madam Kou's funeral.

Do it properly and don't let grief consume you.

The Lingyuan Sect

will depend on you in the future.

Yun Xiang.

Come with me.

What do you think of what happened today?

A candle is supposed to light the dark,

but the darkest place

is right under the candlestick.

I'm relieved for you

that Nangong Fang died.

I wasn't hard on Kou Lianyi.

I don't see the need for you to defend her.

It has nothing to do with her

but with something in the past.

What's it?

It's related to me

and you.

Around the 20th year of Tianqing,

eight censors together with many other officials

complained to His Majesty

that your reform was too radical.

His Majesty expelled you from the capital because of that.

I guess since then,

you've been biding your time

for this big plan.

Not long after you left,

those eight censors and their families

either died in accidents

or got murdered.

Really?

If that were true,

the imperial court would have brought me to book.

I studied in the Yuntai Sect for 15 years.

I know you have wisdom and a big heart,

so I'm sure you didn't do that.

Then who did it?

And how did you know about it?

Liu Gongquan always wants to use the Yuntai Sect

to find evidence of your treason.

I agreed to help him on the condition

that he'd help me get to the bottom of this matter.

So Liu Gongquan went to the east coast

to investigate this case.

Yes.

Nangong Fang was the mastermind

of the east-coast land purchase case in the 26th year of Tianqing.

He took down Mr. Wen

and submitted his pledge to the Lingyuan Sect.

Then why did he kill the whole Luo family's village

on the pretext of buying land?

Because one of the eight censors

was about to retire and go back home.

His hometown was the Luo family's village.

Over the years,

Nangong Fang never mentioned it.

There's only one explanation.

Once the time was right,

he would blame that atrocity on you.

You wouldn't be able to prove yourself innocent.

You are

from the Luo family's village?

Yes.

Now I know the whole story.

It explains why you didn't listen to me

after you left the mountain

and caused quite a stir in Nandu.

So it's all about a blood feud.

Yes.

Why didn't you tell me

about Nangong Fang until today?

I didn't want to put you in a dilemma.

Aren't you afraid of him telling on you to me?

No.

You know that in my heart

you're more important than him.

I won't assume that.

You're right.

I need all hands on deck now.

I wanted you to go to Yangzhou with me.

But now it seems

that you should go to Nandu

and make arrangements in advance.

I'll go where you want me to go.

Take your Kou Lianyi with you.

Get prepared after you arrive in Nandu.

Yes.

All right. Go.

Do you really trust Yun Xiang

and plan to put him in an important position?

Take your best men

and escort him to Nandu.

You want me to protect him and watch over him?

Don't hurt yourself.

Yanan.

You still have me.

There are so many things I haven't done for her.

I can't do them for her anymore.

My father passed away when I was young.

I always hoped that I could grow up sooner

to share Mother's burden.

Mother was a tough woman

and a disciple of the Lingyuan Sect.

I thought a lot about how she might die,

but never in this way.

How could someone's heart be so corrupt?

That guy,

how do you want him to pay?

Prince Fu.

Did you get the seal?

All branches of the Lingyuan Sect

can be deployed with this seal.

Now that we have it,

all branches are yours to command.

Your sister has found out what you did to Madam Kou.

There's no Madam Kou anymore.

You're right.

Master Kou,

I'll depart to Yangzhou tomorrow to gather the troops.

You'll wait at the Lingyuan branch.

After I arrange everything,

you'll rise up when I tell you to

and catch the border barracks off guard.

Why don't we rise up together?

Winning the first battle at the border

is a great honor.

I never doubt

that you're trustworthy.

But there are people who object

to my joining forces with you.

You need a great deed to shut them up.

Rest assured, Prince Fu.

I won't fail you in this.

Master Kou.

You're very talented.

You'll make great achievements in the future.

After we succeed,

how about you rule the north and I rule the south?

We can discuss this

after I break through the border defenses.

Okay.

Father.

Did you stay up all night again?

I told you

that you don't have to worry about those things.

I know.

I'll go to Yangzhou.

You stay here.

I'll ask someone to keep you company.

Father.

I've packed my things.

I'll go with you.

Mingzhu.

You know why I'm leaving for Yangzhou.

War is coming.

This is the safest place.

If all my family is gone,

what's the point of staying somewhere safe?

Father.

I've made up my mind.

Do you remember me going to Nandu all alone?

If you insist on leaving me behind,

I’m afraid I'll go to Yangzhou alone to find you again.

But if you go with me,

I'm afraid...

It doesn't matter.

Fine.

Let's do as we planned.

You must be careful.

Miss Kou, is Yun Xiang here?

Yes.

Your Highness.

Let's talk somewhere else.

Actually, I came to say goodbye.

After we part ways today,

I don't know what it'll be like when we meet again.

I didn't expect you to go to Yangzhou too.

I thought Prince Fu

would let you stay here.

I begged Father

to take me with him.

So many things happened recently.

I find it hard to tell right from wrong.

I'm just taking it one day at a time.

At this point,

I can only cherish what I have now.

Yes. Take it one day at a time.

That's good.

Yun Xiang.

I want to ask you one last time.

Do you have any ways to stop my father

and help him get out of this intact?

Prince Fu's plans have always been foolproof.

He'll be fine.

Alright.

Take care of yourself and Miss Kou.

You too.

Actually, I always have the feeling

that you've already got a plan.

But after all that's happened,

I don't know what I can say

or what I can do.

I just hope you can

look out for him

for old times' sake.

It'll be a long journey. Take care.

You once said Yun Xiang is genius

but too high-profile

and sophisticated

to be on a long leash.

Why did you let him go so easily?

Nangong Fang is dead.

Nandu needs to be in the charge of someone capable.

Besides,

I had a talk with him last night.

I finally knew

why he was always so wayward.

Compared to Nangong Fang,

Yun Xiang understands better the core beliefs of the Yuntai Sect.

Does he really trust you?

I just wanted to leave here.

I don't care whether he trusts me or not.

Tell me how you want

to hold your mother's funeral.

I'll help you.

She's gone now.

I'll just give her one last ride.

Mingyu.

Although the Su family is not as prosperous as before,

it still owns

a sizable amount of properties in Nandu.

How come you're reduced to selling all of them?

What happened?

Mr. Liu,

I'd rather not say,

but I do need money for something urgent.

I'd be grateful if you could help me out.

Every business of the Su family is making profits.

I think you'll be able to make money

the very day you take over them.

There's nothing to lose.

Mr. Su, you're so efficient.

I heard that all the supplies we need

have been purchased.

You gave me an order.

Of course I'd do my best to carry it out.

But I heard

that you're selling your family assets.

Please have a look, Mr. Xu.

You can see that the value of the military supplies I bought

is way more than

the 400,000 taels you approved.

When it comes to wars,

abundant supplies are the most important.

I've made up my mind

to take my chances.

I don't care if I'll be broken.

Even if I have to risk my life,

I'll give Prince Fu my full support.

I'm impressed by your insight and courage.

You flatter me, Mr. Xu.

I just hope you can put in a good word

for me with Prince Fu.

To be honest,

I'm really not good at business.

It'd be great

if Prince Fu could give me an appointment.

No problem.

I'll see myself out.

Take care, Mr. Xu.

[Jishan Hall]

These should be enough to fund the foundling home for a while.

Not just for a while.

They're enough to support the children for years.

Miss Ke, what happened?

Stay away from Liansheng House for a while.

Did something happen?

Nothing serious.

We can handle it.

Just take good care of the children.

If riots break out,

close the gate

and wait for them to blow over.

Also,

no matter what happens in the future,

make sure the foundling home stand.

I will.

I promised Jin to do that.

Take me to see the children.

Water and fire don't have lives.

Water and fire don't have lives.

Plants have lives but don't have emotions.

Plants have lives but don't have emotions.

Animals have emotions but don't have minds.

Animals have emotions but don't have minds.

Humans have lives, emotions,

and minds.

Humans have lives, emotions,

and minds.

After Jin died,

they seem to have grown up overnight.

They've all been very sweet.

If Jin were still alive,

he'd be so relieved

to see this.

Tianhu.

Take care of yourself

and take care of the kids.

Remember what I said.

I have to go.

The jade in the mountain nourishes all the plants.

The pearl in the river keeps the flowers on the band from withering.

The jade in the mountain nourishes all the plants.

The pearl in the river keeps the flowers on the band from withering.

If one keeps doing good things.

You wouldn't tell me what happened,

so I won't pry into it.

But no matter what, stay alive.

I'll be waiting for you.

Okay.

The pearl in the river keeps the flowers on the band from withering.

I'll go.

The pearl in the river keeps the flowers on the band from withering.

If one keeps doing good things.

If one keeps doing good things.

How's it possible that they'll stay obscure forever?

How's it possible that they'll stay obscure forever?

Master Kou.

Master Kou.

It's time to set off.

Master Kou.

It's time to set off.

It's just visiting the Lingyuan branch.

There's no need to rush.

Master Kou.

I found this when I cleaned Kou Lianyi's room.

No one can tell what's in it.

Of course you can't tell what it is.

This is Hidden Cold Scale.

After ingestion, the skin turns livid

and breathing ceases.

The victim becomes like a hibernating snake.

They won't wake up until three days later.

Come with me to the back mountain now.

Bring some men with you.

Yes.

Careful.

Careful.

Okay.

Put it down.

Where is Mr. Nangong?

They haven't gone far.

Go after them!

Mr. Yun.

Why did we stop?

His Highness ordered us to go to Nandu without delay.

Report it to Prince Fu now!

Are you sure you can handle him?

He and his men will catch up soon.

It's okay.

I just hope he comes sooner.

Master Kou, why are you here?

I found this in your room.

I dug Nangong Fang's grave.

His coffin is empty.

You're already the Sect Master.

Why can't you leave her alone

and spare her that false accusation?

False accusation?

We'll know if it's false after we open the coffin.

Stop!

Think twice.

It's your mother who's lying inside.

Don't be fooled by him.

Nangong Fang knows lots of Prince Fu's plans.

He needs to be either dead or with us.

Go get her!

Watch out!

Go catch Yun Xiang!

Yes.

Leave it to me. You go first.

I move fast and this dagger is poisoned.

I may be able to kill some of them.

If we have to die, we die together.

Then I'll grant your wish.

Kill!

Bring it on.

Bring it on!

Don't you want to die together?

I'll chop off his hands and feet first.

He'll wish he were dead!

Don't kill me, Lianyi.

They gave me no choice.

I was forced to do all this.

The seal.

The seal.

Lianyi.

Here is the Sect Master's seal.

I'll give the position of the Sect Master to you.

I'm selfish and greedy.

I deserve to die.

But Lianyi,

I'm your brother.

And Mother.

If Mother were here…

How dare you mention her?

The thing I hate most

about living in this world

is having a despicable brother like you

Thank you for your help, Lord Liu.

Any time.

Have you seen Yun Xiang?

The imperial edict has been drafted.

As long as the Lingyuan Sect stays out of this,

when the dust settles,

the court will make things right

and no longer treat its disciples as rebels.

Thank you, Lord Liu.

Save it.

I just fulfilled my promise to you.

Time is pressing.

She has to go now to stop the Lingyuan Sect's branches from joining the uprising.

So she can't go with us

to meet Her Majesty.

Okay.

If you need assistance,

I can provide you men.

I can do it on my own.

Then I'll leave it to you, Miss Kou.

Please keep the Lingyuan Sect's branches in check.

Otherwise, when the war begins,

numerous people will die.

Neither Yingyuan, Yuntai, nor the court

can be the so-called winner.

The fire in Yufeng Warehouse back then

drew the Su family into perpetual conflict.

Hope this fire can put an end to everything.

Let's go.

Mr. Xu.

There's another fire in the city.

Where?

The Su family's warehouse.

That's it?

People in the Lingyuan Sect never take death too seriously.

We don't believe in the afterlife either.

Our secret soldiers are always ready to die.

Mother was the same.

This is a beautiful place.

If her ghost were still around, she'd find peace of mind here.

There's no coming back from the dead.

She's part of the mountain now.

Mother lived an eventful life,

but she's six feet under now like we all will be.

Yun Xiang.

Do you know what it means

to continue on this path?

Of course.

But I'm tired.

When it dawns,

I'll have to face

unceasing tumult

and conflict again.

Plot against others and be plotted against.

I'm so fed up with all that.

I'll personally order all the branches to dismiss the secret soldiers,

but this is the last time I help you.

Are you leaving?

You've allied with the court.

After the rebellion is quelled, you'll surely be recruited by the court.

You should avoid getting involved with us bandits.

So I guess we have to say goodbye.
