"The Twin Flower Legend"

"Episode 25"

King of Jin, you got the Imperial Jade Seal,

you've made a great contribution.

You're at the highest position as a minister,

besides the throne,

I don't know what to reward you anymore.

I'm just kidding.

Gentlemen, why aren't you laughing?

Your Majesty has the Imperial Jade Seal now,

all thanks to Hua Jin Xiu and Song Ming Lei.

Why don't you reward them instead?

Then, summon them into the hall.

Summon King of Jin's courtiers,

Hua Jin Xiu and Song Ming Lei.

It isn't a dream, it's true.

Greetings, Your Majesty!

Lift up your head.

You're Hua Jin Xiu?

Your Majesty, it's me.

I remember you.

King of Jin's concubine.

You're born with purple eyes.

Last time at the Bian City Palace,

you've made great contribution by protecting me.

Everything was in a hurry, I didn't have chance to reward you.

I'll reward you with 100 taels of gold this time.

I'll give you a title, Madam Zi Yi.

Yi means the sun rises in the east.

It represents the purple vibes of auspicious.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

I'd sacrifice myself to repay Your Majesty.

As for Mr. Song,

I've decided to grant you a wish.

Be it gold or minister position,

you may request.

Your Majesty, I don't want anything else...

I hope Your Majesty approve a marriage.

King of Jin has betrothed her daughter to me.

I want to give her an unforgettable wedding.

I boldly request Your Majesty to be the witness of our marriage.

You're a loyal and faithful man indeed.

Convey my order.

Grant Song Ming Lei a Princess Ceremony at the East Palace...

to marry Miss Yuan.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Darn it, the Yuan family has spoiled my plan again.

Your Majesty, are you blaming me for being incompetent?

Prime Minister Dou...

I have no intention of doing that.

I have no intention of doing that.

But...

we still gained something from this trip.

At least the Posthumous Edict is destroyed.

Your Majesty is still Xuan family's legitimate heir.

As for Yuan Qing Jiang and Xuan Fu Che,

we don't need to be afraid of them.

If they want to declare a war,

my Dou family's troops won't back off.

Prime Minister Dou, you're so right.

You're so right.

Madam Zi Yi, Hua Jin Xiu of the Yuan family...

I'll bestow you a hundred elite soldiers.

Their mission is to protect you.

I'll name them as Feng De Troops,

as a reward of how you've risked your life to save me.

From today onwards, Hua Jin Xiu...

you're Madam Zi Yi as declared by His Majesty.

You're the leader of Feng De Troops of the Yuan family.

You're a master too.

No one will dare to look down on you anymore.

The pain when your parents died,

the hatred from the whole clan,

aren't you going to avenge for them?

They'll haunt you forever.

On their way to hell,

they won't rest in peace.

My dear,

until now...

I still feel like I'm dreaming.

I couldn't believe...

we're officially husband and wife now.

Yes.

We've finally...

become a real married couple.

Come here.

Duan Yuet Rong is born with purple eyes.

Don't miss out anyone with purple eyes.

Yes.

Come, let me see.

Come on, let's go.

What?

Hua Jin Xiu is granted as Madam Zi Yi?

His Lordship has gave her a troop?

It is written on a letter sent by pigeon from Dong Du.

Darn it!

Let's pack and get ready,

we're heading to Dong Du today.

Quick, come in.

Let's hide here.

This place is dodgy.

At least there's a place to stay. I'll clean it up.

What's wrong?

You can't even carry a baby?

I don't have the energy right now,

but I'm not so weak until I can't manage to carry a baby.

-Give the baby to me. -Who knows?

You should eat some dry food first.

-It's all gone. -You...

Don't rush. I'll buy it right away.

I'll buy a lot of food until it could burst your stomach.

You even lost your money.

At least she's full.

Don't worry, I'll find a way.

I found that although she's ugly...

when she isn't crying, she is actually quite cute.

Nonsense, she isn't ugly.

You're the ugly one.

Look at you now.

You look like a good wife and a good mother.

I like it.

Why don't...

I'll be the father of this child.

You can be the mother of this child.

Don't take advantage of me.

After we've arrived in the South Country,

we have to find her a good family to adopt her.

Come, you hold her.

Who wants to take advantage of you?

I want you to do it willingly...

to stay by my side.

Right?

Come in now!

-What's wrong? -Hurry up!

Why are you shouting?

Don't cry.

What's wrong?

I found...

this shirt...

it looks good on you.

Are you too hungry till you're out of your mind?

It's a woman's outfit.

The city gate is so strict now.

You dress up as a woman.

I'll dress up as a man.

We carry a baby.

All three of us walk out of the gate as a family.

No way!

I'm a man, how can you ask me to dress up like a woman?

What is this?

The colour is too sexy.

It's so tight.

It's tough to be a woman.

Hey master heir apparent,

you claimed that you're a beauty, right?

Come out and show me.

Coming.

Coming.

I told you.

I took it off.

Who let you go?

Do you still want to leave the city?

Of course I do.

I'll help you with the make up tomorrow morning.

If anyone recognises you as a man.

I hit him.

I feel like.

Something is missing.

Your tenderness.

Look.

What do you mean?

To be a woman, you have to do this.

This is disgusting.

And...

It's that small?

Come on.

Stop!

-Sir. -Where are you come from?

Why do you come to South Country?

We're from Liang Country.

We come to South Country to live with our relatives.

To live with your relatives?

Go.

You, raise your head.

-Me? -Yes.

Sir, you keep looking at me like this...

I will be shy.

You're a shameless woman!

This man...

is so cruel.

You've such a pretty wife, how dare you hit her like that?

Are you a man?

Come on, drink the medicine.

Let me.

Don't burn yourself.

Why don't you let me carry her?

As a husband, you're always carrying her,

it doesn't look right.

Stop overacting.

I'm a woman now.

Like a fairy...

You, you, come and let me check.

You, turn around.

Come on.

Over there. Come here.

What should we do?

I don't know whether we can cheat our way out this time.

Let me check.

Okay, let's go.

Where are you going?

I'm a Southerner.

There are a lot of paths at the hills. Not everyone knows about it.

You don't know but I know.

Follow me.

Be careful. Don't hurt your leg.

Don't hurt her.

Be good.

Come here.

-You may leave now. -Thank you, sir.

Let's go back to the main road. Let's see if we're able to cheat them.

I'm a Southerner.

If we can't use the path, we go through the mountain.

I don't believe a local sneak like me,

I can't find a way out!

Come on.

You have an idea?

Let me tell you, I'm familiar with the roads here.

The south is right in front...

Raise your hand. Let me see.

Hu Yong is such a jerk!

He even seal all the mountain road at the South Country.

I'm right in front of the house, but I can't get in.

Is he trying to hunt me to death in this wilderness?

You, the Southerner,

How could you not knowing where to go?

Look at the situation now,

what's the point of saying this kind of thing to me?

-Do you believe me or not? -Of course I do!

Bite me, you're a local snake.

Okay, keep on bragging.

The exits are heavily guarded.

I can't even get in after I've dressed up like a woman.

What if I can't get in, you're going to die too.

Right now, Hu Yong's men are at the south-west.

As for the east, the secret agents of the Yuan family are chasing after us.

If we want a chance of survival,

we have to go north.

Yes, we can go north.

There are many mountain and villages,

and my father's conferment land, Wo Zhou is at the north too.

Let's go. Let's go that way.

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Five.

Six.

Seven.

Stop!

Carry on with your training.

Yes.

One.

-Two. -Brother Yu.

Chu Hua, why are you here?

You're weak.

You should rest. What are you doing here?

I've seen you eating at the camp for the past few days,

the food must be bland.

I made a few home-cooked dishes. So, I bring it to you.

Look.

A lady is always thoughtful.

I'll eat after I've finished my training.

All right, you can go back first.

It's going to be a hot mid day,

don't make your condition become worse.

I'll go now, Brother Yu.

Brother Yu.

Remember to eat it while it's hot.

Don't worry.

I'm exhausted.

This is...

General, you, a tough man has turned soft.

You're not tired yet, are you?

Go and practise 20 more laps! Now!

There's a custom in our town.

When someone made a meal for you...

and rice is covered with red beans,

it was a confession of love.

Because red beans represent lovesick.

Chu Hua.

Someone is here.

Stop!

Hand over all your money and food.

I'll let you go.

We're refugees.

I was in a rush and didn't take any money.

You didn't take any money?

Who would believe you?

Let me search!

What are you doing? Let go of me!

What are you doing?

Let go of her!

What are you doing? Let go of me!

-There's a fight! -Let go of me!

You don't hit her. Stop it!

Someone is killing people!

-Help! -Let's go!

Don't run!

I'll kill you all!

Look at yourself now. Why did you want to fight them?

I'm with you along the way,

I didn't touch you.

How could I let those wild men touch you?

It's going to be my losses.

They're just hungry and cold,

they didn't have that kind of intention.

Let me tell you.

In all men's mind, every minute, they have that kind of thought.

If this happens again, leave it to me. I'm a man now.

No way!

I'm a man.

If I can't protect my woman, what kind of man am I?

There are many ways to show off that you're a man.

Many ways...

Yes.

Today, I'm going to...

feed you guys until full!

The more I've spent time with you...

the more I realised you're such a good cook.

I found out that you're like a fairy godmother,

you're like a treasure chest.

Not bad.

The more I've known you...

the more I realised you look like a bee.

You look like you're always going to sting people,

but in fact,

you're as sweet as honey.

Honey?

So cheesy.

What you're eating now? Can you eat that?

Of course, you can try.

During this period, he is always tired and hungry,

his body is getting weaker.

He can't even hold his food.

Don't eat if you don't want to.

How could you waste my effort?

Hold on to this.

You can have it. I ate too much just now.

Right, we are done.

What about her?

Let her try this.

What's wrong? Is she nervous?

We can feed her bird eggs.

Why?

She has teeth now.

Yes, that's right. When did it grow?

They're like two small grains. So adorable.

Although this girl is ugly,

she's growing on me now.

Right.

She's been with us for so long,

shall we give her a name?

Then...

we call her Xi Yan.

Xi Yan.

Fei Jue.

I don't know Gong Yue language.

So I can only made holes like this.

In the future, you don't need to ask help from others.

From now on, all your memorials,

I'll follow the order to make holes like this.

Thank you.

What's wrong with you?

It's okay.

You should have just spent time on the memorials,

the country affairs are more important.

What's wrong?

All the memorials reported about the desertification of Gong Yue.

All these years...

the oasis in Gong Yue has decreased by half.

The lives of the people are getting worse.

So serious?

According to Guo Er Ren,

if this goes on,

maybe after ten or twenty years,

Gong Yue country will turn into desert.

This is my country.

What about my people?

Different plants have different ways of growing.

For example, the beet can survive drought.

So, we can put more sand in the soil.

In this world, there are plants that can survive in the desert?

There are many of them.

For example Welwitschia, Cistanche and Orchids.

They can grow in the desert and make the soil solid.

Why don't I go to the centre of the desert tomorrow.

I'm going to find some plants that can solidify the soil...

and plant them in large scale.

Maybe this will improve desertification of the land.

But the centre of the desert is too dangerous.

I heard rumours from the elders,

there's a treasure buried under the palace,

it's called the Earth's Heart.

It's worth a fortune.

It can turn the deserted land into fertile field.

If we can find this item...

Fei Jue, it might just be a legend and not trustable.

Why don't we be realistic and take some solid actions?

You're right.

I'll call someone to prepare horses and water bags right away.

I'll go with you tomorrow.

The Emperor and Empress are having a three-day state banquet...

to serve the women of the Yuan family.

Madam, you're going to stay at the palace for these three days,

I'll serve you.

Madam, if you need anything, please tell me.

Thank you.

Sister!

I know this is your first time attending this kind of banquet.

I'm worried you're not familiar with the etiquette.

So I came to check on you.

This outfit is quite expensive.

How can you be empty-handed?

I didn't know about the etiquette.

I'll go back and prepare a gift.

It's too late.

You're lucky that I'm meticulous.

You have to take care of our family's reputation.

Chu Rui.

Take this cloak to the ceremony as a gift.

What a beautiful chick feathers!

Thank you, sister.

Sister!

Please don't talk nonsense when you present your gift.

This is the Five Colours Eagle's Cloak.

It represents brilliant warriorship.

You'll cause misunderstanding that we are sending His Majesty...

a chick feathers cloak!

You might humiliate His Lordship.

Sister.

How could you forget to wear the most important thing?

What is your intention?

You have no manners or you still don't know the rules?

Do you want our Yuan family to become the laughing stalk?

I'm wearing everything.

I don't know what's missing.

Right.

Even a chick is flying high up,

it's still having a chick's vision, it would never become an eagle.

Consort Jin is talking about this?

Greetings, Your Highness.

Greetings, Your Highness.

Since Han Dynasty, all royal family loves fragrance.

Wherever the Emperor of Tang passed by...

the floor was covered with the scent of Camphor and Curcuma.

All women from the official families,

would burn incense or carry a sachet.

I've heard that Madam Zi Yi...

was as brave as the men when you were at the battlefield.

You must be very skilful in martial arts.

You've made a lot of contributions.

Human energy is limited.

She's like a man,

she put most of her effort on the battlefield,

she doesn't know the etiquette of carrying a sachet, I'm not surprised.

This is for you.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Follow me starting tomorrow.

Be my bodyguard.

Your urge to seek revenge is still strong, I'm relieved.

Our master is indeed as good as a fortune teller.

She has foreseen that you couldn't kill Yuan Qing Jiang at Ya Province.

You guys were the mastermind behind Ya Province's incident?

In order to help you to climb the Yuan family's ladder, Master...

has put in a lot of efforts.

I hope you won't let her effort goes to waste.

In your hearts...

what am I?

A tool?

Or just a pawn?

You're married now,

when the time comes, what will you do then?

She is different from Yuan Qing Jiang.

I didn't expect you're so infatuated in love.

Follow me from now on.

We need to know who is your master.

Otherwise,

there are many people who can replace you.

Yes.

Feng Ding, why are you here?

Madam.

His Lordship is worried about you.

He ordered me to assist you in the palace.

What madam?

I'm just an ordinary girl.

I finally knew it today.

Once I have the power, they won't look down on me anymore.

But it's okay.

I met a good person.

That person is Consort Li.

I'm grateful to her.

Consort Li is pitiful.

Back then when she gave birth to her little prince, she has complication.

Rumour has it, she can't get pregnant anymore.

When she left Bian City...

you left her child to the two princes.

But on the way to Dong Du,

the two princes worried that the baby would cry and attract the pursuers.

They threw him out of the car.

Consort Li still can't locate the baby until now.

Then, how do you know about this?

I've a mate in the Yuan family troops, he was behind that carriage,

he witnessed it and told me about this incident.

Does Consort Li know?

She is such a pitiful woman.

Fifth rank official, Colonel Yu Fei Yan...

is honest, filial and full of merits.

A special honour to him as The Vanguard General!

He's going to lead the army to the south to suppress our enemy...

to keep our border in peace.

I...

accept the Imperial decree.

Accept the decree.

Chu Hua.

His Majesty just sent My Lord back to Zi Yuan.

Then,

His Majesty sent our general to the border to suppress the riot.

It was a sneaky move,

His Majesty is trying to weaken our wing and power.

My Lord,

we have to take precautions.

Once the cunning rabbits are all caught,

the hounds are no longer useful.

I never expect him to be different from the ordinary.

It's just...

his throne isn't stable yet.

He's too impatient.

I'm afraid he's not good enough...

he would ruin everything.

My trip to the South country this time,

I found out that they're having some internal conflicts.

The tragedy at Zi Yuan,

I think it's really has nothing to do with Duan Guang Yi.

He's still busy with the rebellion,

he will not be able to collude with Dou Ying Hua.

My Lord,

the time is now.

Xuan Fu Che is not legitimate.

Why don't we take the advantage...

to attack Dong Du and usurp the throne.

We'd get a huge success.

I don't think it's right.

The Xuan family is strong after all.

People still think that they're the legitimate royal family.

If we attack rashly,

I'm afraid it will cause a lot of gossips.

Commander Chen is right.

It's not the right time yet.

Father, I have a plan.

We might as well spread the news that...

Xuan Fu Che is not legitimate to ascent the throne.

In addition, we accuse him of suppressing the meritorious ministers.

We just let the gossips spread.

Meanwhile, we remain dormant...

expanding our soldiers.

This is a brilliant plan.

That's all for today.

Hurry up and go back. Don't stay here for too long.

I don't want Fei Yan to blame me again.

Yes, Father.

Brilliant.

This child is really talented.

But I don't know...

if he is truly loyal to me.

Guang Qian, you're really bright.

It's all thanks to you...

so Fei Yan and I could return to Zi Yuan.

Thank you, brother.

Speaking of which,

I haven't congratulate you and Fei Yan for your marriage.

Brother, not at all.

Time flies.

When I was seven years old,

father gave me a Jade Bird.

That bird was so beautiful.

Fei Yan found out and she came here every day.

I asked her if she liked it too,

but she shook her head.

Because she knows that...

I liked it too.

Then I told her,

I've never liked these little things.

She was overjoyed...

and took it away.

I know...

in your heart...

Fei Yan is more important than anything else.

Don't worry, brother.

I'll take good care of Fei Yan.

I'm glad that you know.

You did a good job during the tragedy.

My engagement with Princess Shu Qi was called off.

Like what you've said...

Our great future belongs to you and me.

I always remember it.

Congratulations, brother.

You've finally out of nightmares.

I have never forgotten our promise.

You're my...

mountain ranges...

and water.

Why?

Why are you being so nice to me?

Come to my room tonight.

I have a gift for you.

Come in.

Chu Hua, you're so pretty.

Before you leave,

let me be your family.

Tell me, what did I do to deserve...

a day like this.

I really like you.

I've never liked any girl in my life.

Not to my sister...

but to my wife.

But the more I like you,

the more I love you,

the more I can't harm you.

It will be dangerous for me to go there.

It could be a long time, it could be...

If you go there for a year,

I'll wait for you for a year.

If you come back in ten years,

I'll wait for you for ten year.

If you can't come back.

I'll go down and keep you company.

In this life,

our red string...

won't be able to release anymore.

From now on, you will be mine.

I'll protect you forever.

Mu Jin.

My father passed down this War Strategy to me.

Brother Ming Lei is this useful to you?

Mu Jin.

Are you okay?

I miss you so much.

From today onwards,

seal off all the news about Hua Mu Jin.

Go tell Song Ming Lei,

she's dead.

Yes.
