[Lost You Forever S1]

[Episode 31]

Your Highness.

I tried three tortures on him.

He couldn't take it and wanted to die.

But he still hasn't named his accomplices.

I killed your little sister.

Take my life as you wish.

You did it alone?

You really speak highly of yourself.

They must have agreed to let him take all the blame before the action.

His clan has been wiped out.

Even if the two kings are furious,

they can only kill him.

I have no family whatsoever.

If you want my life, take it.

You have no family whatsoever?

I bet countless people died trying to save you

from Chi Chen's blade.

Do you really have the nerves to terminate the Mu family here?

What do you mean?

Xiaoxiao.

When he was living with his relatives, the Shen family,

his maid Liu'er was kicked out

of the mansion due to adultery

and soon gave birth to a boy.

You've been careful enough

to avoid contact with them,

but I still discovered something.

The son of this maid

must be yours.

You can remain silent and die.

I will send your son

to reunite with the entire Mu family.

You're a devil!

You're a lunatic!

You killed my little sister.

I swear I'll claim your life!

But if you tell me one thing,

I will leave your son out of it.

I killed your little sister.

Other than that,

I know nothing.

I know you won't betray your partners.

I just want to know, why did you want to kill Xiaoyao.

Just tell me that

and I'll spare your son.

You have some time to think it through.

Don't try to commit suicide.

Think about your son.

Xiaoyao.

Xiaoyao.

Your Highness.

What's wrong?

Mu Fei wants to see you.

But he wants Mr. Fenglong there, too.

I see.

I can tell you why I killed your sister.

But you have to promise

that you'll never hurt my son.

As long as you tell the truth, I won't hurt him.

I don't trust anyone from Xiyan.

I want to hear you say that

no one shall ever hurt my son.

As long as you tell Cang Xuan the truth,

I promise no one shall hurt your son for what you've done.

You must be resenting me

for causing so much trouble for the clans in the Central Plains.

But I had to kill her.

Because she's not the Great Princess of Haoling at all.

She is the daughter of Chi Chen.

- No way. - No way.

I've seen that demon's eyes in person.

I can't be wrong.

After I saw the fake princess,

I was filled with hatred and rage.

But I still investigated her carefully.

I even consulted Fifth King and Seventh King.

The demon Chi Chen annihilated my clan.

I will never forget how he looks.

It just occurred to me

that the Great Princess of Haoling

reminded me a bit of Chi Chen.

And I've heard rumors between Princess General and that demon.

Therefore,

- I came to seek your confirmation. - What rumors?

Your Highnesses, you lived through that period.

Have you ever heard of the affair between Princess General and Chi Chen?

To be honest, there were indeed rumors saying that.

Xiling Heng and Chi Chen...

However, it was before she married the King of Haoling.

So Princess General and Chi Chen indeed...

There's no such thing.

Brother, Father has forbidden anyone to discuss this.

Don't you remember?

Fine, I won't discuss it.

Those are just random rumors.

Don't take them seriously.

Xiling Heng divorced the King of Haoling for other reasons.

It had nothing to do with Chi Chen.

Although they were extremely reluctant to talk about it,

I was sure I was right.

She was the daughter of Chi Chen.

Nonsense.

Before Auntie left for war, she had told me

to ask the King of Haoling

for help if anything went wrong.

If she had betrayed him,

why was he nice enough

to educate me and protect me in Haoling?

Yeah.

Mu Fei.

Think about it.

King of Haoling is so shrewd.

You can find the truth.

But he can't?

If he had doubts about Xiaoyao,

why would he hold such a grand worship ceremony

to show people in Dahuang how much he loved Xiaoyao?

Did I really kill the wrong person?

No.

No way.

I've seen those eyes.

I can't be wrong.

There's no way I'm wrong.

It's too late even if you realize your mistake.

You've hurt Xiaoyao.

You must pay with your life.

I sacrificed one life to save you.

If you dare to die,

I will chop you up and feed you to the fish.

The nine-tailed fox also said

that my mom had been having an affair with Chi Chen.

They had kept it a secret from everyone, including my father.

If he had found out about it,

he would have gotten rid of me.

Still mad about what Mu Fei said?

Nobody would believe in such nonsense.

I hope what he said can remain between us

not only because it affects the reputation of the King of Haoling and my auntie,

but also because my dear uncles

wanted to use the clans in the Central Plains to kill Xiaoyao.

I understand.

Xiaoyao is prestigious.

If it's not handled properly,

the King of Xiyan may blame it on the Central Plains

and put it into turbulence again.

For the peace of the Central Plains,

I will be careful and remain silent.

Since we know why Mu Fei wanted Xiaoyao dead,

it's easy to find his accomplices.

Chi Chen wiped out many clans,

but not many of them have members left.

First, they need to know Mu Fei well

to trust each other in this assassination.

Second, they should practice.

Water Spirit and Wood Spirit.

And I feel that one of them is a woman.

Only a woman can manage to separate Xinyue and Xiaoyao

and stop the secret guards I sent around Xiaoyao

without attracting attention.

You've got a point.

With all this information,

I bet you already know who did it.

Come to Chenrong Mansion tonight.

Xinyue and I will have an answer for you.

Alright.

Xinyue took me to the plum blossom wood,

and I was assassinated.

Where am I?

Am I already dead?

So I can't leave my body?

Does Cang Xuan know how I am?

He must be worried sick.

Brother, it's a good opportunity.

I know it's an opportunity.

But Cang Xuan

will have to make a decision.

Found the culprit?

After investigation, we confirmed that there were four culprits.

Apart from Mu Fei, there are orphans of the Shen, Zhan, and Jin families,

namely Shen Zhong, Zhan Xueling, and Jin Yuejian.

Thank you.

Cang Xuan, one more thing.

What is it?

The Fan and the Zheng families came to see me

and pleaded for Zhan Xueling and Jin Yuejian.

Zhan Xueling is Mr. Fan's fiance.

They grew up together as childhood sweethearts

and would get married in three months.

Jin Yuejian was engaged to the daughter of the Zheng family at a young age.

They've always been close.

The Fan and Zheng families said

that as long as you went easy on Zhan Xueling and Jin Yuejian,

their families would pay back by showing support. I...

I...

suggest you think twice.

That's also my opinion.

You need talents at this moment.

If you kill Zhan Xueling and Jin Yuejian,

the two clans of the six will turn against you.

It's not worth it.

That's right.

Cang Xuan, to achieve great success,

you must know what to do

and what not to do.

The harm to Xiaoyao

can't be undone even if you kill them.

You can only vent your anger, which is pointless.

But if you spare them,

they will be your supporters and help you achieve great things.

Good point.

Let me tell you a story from my childhood.

I was quite young.

My parents left to fight in the war,

the one against your grandpa,

Chenrong Yanzhuan.

One day,

my mother and auntie suddenly came back

with the news that my father died in the war.

I saw my granny, my auntie, and my mother

hugging each other and crying.

Granny was the founding queen of Xiyan

who used to fight alongside Grandpa.

My mother was the wise leader of the Ruoshui Clan.

My auntie was the Princess General who became known throughout Dahuang

and died defending the kingdom.

The three of them were the toughest women I'd known.

But at that moment,

they cried their hearts out

like they lost all hope in life

and didn't know what lay ahead.

It was heartbreaking.

At that moment,

I swore to myself that.

I would be strong,

much stronger than the King of Xiyan.

I have to protect them.

I will never let my grandma, my auntie, and my mom

weep helplessly out of the deepest grief.

But...

But...

They didn't see me grow up.

I want to protect my family.

That's why I'm eager to grow up

and gain power.

That's why I want to achieve greater things than my grandpa.

If I choose to let go

of those who hurt Xiaoyao to gain power,

I'd be betraying my younger self in the Zhaoyun Hall.

As you said,

there are things we can do and things we can't do.

But no matter what,

we shouldn't

betray ourselves.

When you try to talk me out of it,

has it crossed your mind that if I give up on Xiaoyao for some reason,

maybe one day.

I can give up on you

for something else?

I'm not a good man

or a good lover for a woman.

But no matter what happens,

I won't give up on my family,

friends, and subordinates.

You, Xiaoxiao, or Jin Xuan.

Whoever dares to hurt you

will never be spared.

Most of the time,

I can weigh the pros and cons

and make the right choices.

But in rare cases,

I'm willing to follow an arduous path.

It's not ideal to offend the Fan

and Zheng families.

But so what?

I'll fight through thick and thin

in the worst case.

Alright.

I'll fight alongside you.

I believe...

that sooner or later,

those two families will realize...

that it's better to take my side.

You two are lunatics.

Miss.

Are you happy or sad?

I should have been sad

when he mentioned another woman.

But I can't help being happy about what he said.

He said

that he'd protect me

and wouldn't let anyone hurt me.

Why haven't I met him sooner?

When I was held hostage in Xiyan Town,

I was terrified every day

and had to bear with it when I got bullied.

If he had been by my side back then,

maybe I wouldn't have suffered so much.

Do you like my little sister because of her status

or her personality?

Do you like Xiaoyao because of her status

or her personality?

We've decided to make the culprits pay.

But it's tricky to decide on a method.

What's on your mind?

If I let Grandpa handle the Mu, Shen, Zhan, and Jin families,

someone may connect it to Chi Chen,

which is bad for Xiaoyao.

It's not just bad for her.

Chi Chen is hated in the Central Plains.

If people hear about it,

it may cause serious trouble.

Don't worry.

Not even my father and Xinyue saw Mu Fei's testimony.

I will keep their motive a top secret.

Tell your father to leave Mu Fei to Grandpa.

I will handle the Shen, Zhan,

and Jin families.

Alright.

But what's your plan?

I'll make it quick for Zhan Xueling

because she's a woman.

But the others...

I will make them suffer

hundreds and thousands of times

the pain Xiaoyao has suffered.

What about your uncles?

I can't do anything to them yet.

But I swear I will...

get even with them one day.

Xueling.

I'm married into the Zheng family.

They won't let you off if you dare to touch me.

Xiaoyao.

I've avenged you.

I didn't let go of any culprit.

And I know

it may render all our efforts in vain.

If you're awake,

you would stop me.

But I don't want to

weigh the pros and cons of this.

If we have to start afresh,

I'll have to make you

continue suffering with me.

Princess's hand is cold.

Get her a thick quilt.

Your Highness.

This is just a puppet.

Yes, Your Highness. I'll be right back.

I wonder how Cang Xuan is.

I bet he's looking for me.

Tushan Jing must have heard about the assassination.

Xiang Liu.

Are you the one who saved me?

Xiang Liu.

Are you the one who saved me?

Are you the one who saved me?

Where have you been?

How can you leave me here alone?

It's so irresponsible to leave the patient alone.

You know?

♫ Eyes like stars ♫

♫ Immersed in longing ♫

I healed you with my blood so many times.

Now it's time for you to return the favor.

Why do you look so pale?

Is it the blood from your heart?

You silly.

Although you have nine heads,

you'll die if you lose too much blood from the heart.

♫ Waiting for you a lifetime ♫

Xiang Liu. Look at my hand. Look.

♫ Waiting brings no bloom ♫

♫ You never show up ♫

♫ In every corner of this earthly realm ♫

♫ It's longing. It's self-pity ♫

You were filled with poison.

And you cultivated with poison.

The blood in your heart is deadly.

I'm afraid I'd be poisoned to death

before you can save me.

♫ It's the way back. It's the way home ♫

♫ Life is like dancing in the snow. It's loneliness ♫

Xiang Liu.

No.

Xiang Liu. No, no, no.

What are you doing?

♫ Waiting for snow ♫

♫ Waiting for destiny's favor ♫

♫ Waiting for you a lifetime ♫

I see. I got it wrong.

Once I recover,

you can take as much blood as you want

and I won't make a single complaint.

♫ In every corner of this earthly realm ♫

♫ It's longing. It's self-pity ♫

Xiang Liu.

Xiang Liu.

Xiang Liu.

Xiang Liu.

Xiang Liu.

Don't you have nine heads?

How can you be poisoned so easily?

Xiang Liu.

Please don't die.

Princess General's daughter was tortured and assassinated.

I can't believe some clan heads would

plead for the culprits.

Father.

Mu Fei is the last member of the Mu family.

The Ying and Chu families

feel sorry for him.

That's why they plead for him.

We can chop off his legs or nose.

But please, let the Mu family carry on their bloodline.

Isn't Xiaoyao the only child of Heng?

Why don't you feel sorry for her?

I'm not pleading for Mu Fei.

I'm simply conveying the message of those clans.

When did you become so close to those clans in the Central Plains?

I'm not. I dare not.

Assassinating Princess General's child is a heinous crime never to be forgiven.

Mu Fei dared to hurt the royal blood.

I sentence him to death by a thousand cuts.

Discard his body in the wild without a burial.

The heads of the Chu and Ying families couldn't discern

right from wrong

and pleaded for the culprit.

Tell the two families

to select new leaders who have better ethics and morals.

Understood.

Send some... No.

Go bring Xiaoyao back in person.

I can't leave her there anymore.

Master, I'm afraid we shouldn't move her at the moment.

The physicians in Haoling couldn't figure out how to heal her.

But Cang Xuan seemed to have found someone who could save Great Princess.

Let her stay and get treated for now.

But

no matter what happens,

make Cang Xuan inform me right away.

Also, send as many spiritual medicines as possible.

If they need anything else,

inform me at once.

Rest assured, Master. I'll keep an eye on it.

Assassinated? How come?

I bet she's been picking up fights.

You think everyone's nice like me? You deserve it.

- The King of Xiyan gave the verdict? - Yes.

Mu Fei has been sentenced to death

by a thousand cuts and no burial.

Two clans

pleaded for him

and both got denounced.

They were even told to select better clan leaders.

Which clans pleaded for the culprit?

The Chu and Ying families.

The Fan and Zheng families didn't hand in a report.

But as far as I know,

they were secretly supporting the other two families.

Your Majesty.

These clans are in the territory of Xiyan.

It's inappropriate for us to directly intervene.

We shouldn't intervene.

But we should let them bully our Great Princess at will?

You're so useless!

Father.

You can't let them off easy.

We must show them the consequences.

I said we shouldn't directly intervene. But we can do it indirectly.

Ru Shou, pass on my word.

Kick all the members of the Chu, Ying,

Fan, and Zheng families out of Haoling.

Also,

Qin Mang, visit the Central Plains to see your senior Cang Xuan

and inform all the clans there

that no one from these four clans shall set foot in Haoling.

Yes, Your Majesty.

I swear I didn't do anything.

He can't see me. Why am I scared?

Are you better, Xiang Liu?

Nine-headed demon. Why did you become so weak?

You're like a fair lady who's been sick and faint all the time.

Did you lose primal spirit power because of me?

Xiang Liu.

Talk to me.

Why are you so silent?

Come on. Talk to me.

Talk to me.

Tell me what's going on out there.

How's my brother Cang Xuan?

I bet he's worried.

And my father

must have heard about the assassination.

Did you tell them anything?

And Tushan Jing.

Is he fine?

What are those?

Cang Xuan sent you some spiritual medicines.

But they don't help you much.

You can just play with them.

Cang Xuan knows I'm here.

That's great.

But I thought you two fight whenever you meet.

Why would he let me stay here?

Xiang Liu, why are you silent again?

Say something.

Fine.

Why are you staying if you won't talk?

Just leave.

Just go.

Xiang Liu, I was kidding.

Xiang Liu.

Xiang Liu, I was kidding.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. Please.

Please come back.

I'm even lonelier without you.

Who's going to talk to me?

Your Highness.

Do you think the Poinciana Wood will resemble the one on the Zhaoyun Peak?

Eventually.

That's great.

Princess will be so happy once she's back.

She has always loved Poinciana trees.

Once they're fully grown,

I'll make her a swing just like the one on the Zhaoyun Peak.

Even better.

You'll push the swing for her

just like when you were kids.

- Your Highness. - Did you see him?

Xiang Liu is hard to track. I didn't see him.

I simply left the spiritual medicines there.

He left you a message.

[No longer in critical condition. But she hasn't woken up.]

Your Highness, is it news about Princess?

How is she? Has she woken up?

She hasn't woken up yet,

but she's no longer in critical condition.

That's good. It's great news.

How's Tushan Jing doing?

Master Qiuqing is getting worse and worse.

Grand Madam of Tushan asked the King of Haoling

for permission to send Master Qingqiu to Guixu.

However, he got weaker and weaker

once he left Zhiyi.

Things didn't look right, so they sent him back to Chenrong Mansion.

Send someone to keep an eye on him.

He fell sick because of Xiaoyao.

She wouldn't want to see him sick.

Understood.

You have such an amazing puppet.

I lost.

A visit from an old acquaintance.

Chenrong Mountain is well-guarded.

How did you enter?

Evil deeds bring self-destruction.

I'm not the only one who wants you dead.

Try to stay alive first.

Let him go.

Your Highness, don't.

Let him go.

You can go now.

If you don't kill me today,

I'll kill you some other day.

Then you should be careful

not to be caught again.

Take the front door.

What for?

This well-forged dagger

is made to take out hearts.

It's named Heart Appreciator.

This is Bone Smashing Hammer.

This is Burned Goose Palm

named after a dish.

But it burns human feet.

Your evil hypocrite

racked your brain

to come up with these horrendous tortures.

It's a pity that I'm incapable

of killing you for the benefit of the people.

Say no more.

Kill me as you wish.

You also think of someone who invented these tools

as a devil that deserves to be killed.

Anyone would pleasantly kill a maniac beast.

The Lord of Zhiyi 200 years ago

designed them in person.

The sinister method killed tens of thousands of innocent people in prison

with false accusations.

The current Lord of Zhiyi gave the order

to stop using most of these tools.

So don't worry about being tortured.

The previous Lord of Zhiyi?

His mother was from the Xiyan clan.

His father was from Haoling Xihe Squad.

His name was Xuan Ting.

Utter nonsense! No way!

Untie him.

Give it to him.

These are Xuan Ting's case files on the people he tortured.

He listed the specific types of tortures he used

and the victims' reactions.

It was a coincidence that.

Grandpa assigned this case to me back then.

I never regretted killing your big brother.

Because he was a high official

who adopted tortures on innocent people

and killed tens of thousands of them.

He deserved it.

If you think I've made a mistake,

go on with the assassinations.

♫ I offered up my prayers in this life ♫

♫ I brewed eternal yearning in wines ♫

♫ I offered up my prayers in the next life ♫
