01x12 - Episode 12

[bunniefuu]

You must be very bold
to have asked that.

How dare you disrespect the Prime Minister,

and me.

Are you trying to rebel against us?

I have order from His Majesty

to guard the royal palace.

If you and the officers insist to enter,

I shall deal with you accordingly.

The royal family is here!

I want to see

who is ruthless.

Why?

Even the person with the surname Ying

can't enter the city?

Do you know that

the royal family have the rights
to enter the palace at any time

to see His Majesty?

I was ordered by His Majesty

no one

can enter the palace
without an imperial order.

What happened in the palace?

We want to see His Majesty!

Yes, we want to see His Majesty!

Let us see His Majesty!

-Let us see His Majesty!
-We want to see His Majesty!

(Qin)

Prime Minister, Top General Meng.

Ten thousand elite soldiers
arrived as ordered.

What are you trying to do?

Ask them

to open the way
for the royal family and officials.

Yes.

Soldiers!

Open the way!

(Zhangtai)

Defence!

Advance!

(Zhangtai)

(Zhangtai)

(Zhangtai)

Fan Wuji.

The Prime Minister and officials

led everyone to barge in the palace
from the front.

The forces in the city

will go there to resist them.

The rest of the city

must be empty.

You also know the art of w*r.

We can take this opportunity to act.

Fan Wuji.

If you can save my parents,

you'll make great merit

for Qin.

Your Majesty.

Your Majesty.

Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, listen.

The Prime Minister.

Soldiers that were deployed by
the Prime Minister.

Is it really the Prime Minister?

That's great.

You are saved.

My time has arrived.

The Queen Dowager Huayang
will never let me

go out alive.

Where did they bring
the heavy infantry from?

Huayang, don't forget that

Meng Ao is the Top General.

Without the tiger tally,

the soldiers can't enter the city.

Huayang, the soldiers are on their way.

Make up your mind now.

Go.

Hold them off.

Me?

It's the crucial time now!

You still want to stay out of it

and dream of being the Prime Minister?

Six hours.

I just need you to hold them off
for six hours

and I can get the verdict
to elect Chengjiao.

At that time,

the tide

may turn.

Yes.

Your Highness.

How's His Majesty?

His Majesty's pulse is very weak.

He's unconscious.

If he doesn't take the medicine,

I'm afraid

he'll leave this world
in a few hours.

Leave.

Yes.

Queen Dowager Huayang's edict.

His Majesty is seriously ill
and needs rest.

No one shall enter the palace

and disturb His Majesty!

Lord Yangquan!

You obstruct the royal family
and officials

to enter the palace
and see His Majesty.

What's your intention?

Prime Minister.

You mobilized heavy troops
to barge into the palace.

What's your intention?

Lord Yangquan!

We just want to visit His Majesty.

We don't have other intentions.

Why do you

obstruct us?

I've told you that

His Majesty is seriously ill.

He won't see anyone!

You jerk.

Why is His Majesty so sick?

It's because you, the Chu family,

asked people to humiliate

the Queen

and infuriated Prince Zheng
to k*ll people with a sword.

This made His Majesty anxious

and his condition got worsened.

Tell me.

What's your intention?

Do you think

Lv Buwei

started the w*r

because he wanted to fight

with King of Qin for his son?

Have you heard?

King of Qin has two sons.

Which one did Lv Buwei

and King of Qin fight for?

Not only did I hear
but I've seen it too.

The eldest son of former King of Qin,

his name is Ying...

Ying Zheng.

He returned from Handan

but got stopped by Lord Yangquan
outside Xianyang city.

He can't enter.

They fought there for quite some time.

Brother.

Who's Lord Yangquan?

Lord Yangquan

is Queen Dowager Huayang's
younger brother.

Both of them

are from the Mi family,

the same as Queen Dowager Xuan.

Now in Xianyang,

the power of Chu family is great.

The King of Qin of today

sat on the throne

because of Queen Dowager Huayang

and Lv Buwei.

Back then,

when Ying Zichu was at Handan,

he was just a hostage.

Who would have expected that

he would be the King of Qin today?

Prince Xi.

Your Highness.

Prince Xi.

I beg you for a favour.

If His Majesty dies,

please k*ll me as well.

Why?

I want to die together with His Majesty.

Are you serious?

I'm his wife.

I followed him when he was poor.

He left our son and me

in Handan for six years.

I blamed him for that,

but in those six years,

I've never

stopped thinking of him.

Thinking of him holding my hand

and telling me
those intimate words of love.

He gave me hope
for a good day in the future.

Although

it sounded like a dream back then,

when...

I see his serious look,

I feel...

This man is so cute.

Get up and talk.

He then became the Crown Prince.

Zhao sent us to Xianyang.

I found this man unhappy.

He was worried all day.

No matter how I coax or tease him,

he never smiled
like when he was in Handan.

I didn't understand

why he has changed.

Later, he became the King.

He became more unhappy.

He can't eat...

Nor sleep.

He discusses country affairs
with officials during the day.

And he has to see documents
until late at night.

His body got worsen and worsen.

But even so,

he's still cautious

and doesn't dare to slack off.

I understand now.

He did it to keep his throne.

The throne makes him unhappy.

The throne makes him sick.

Now, this throne

will make him die!

Sometimes, I wonder

if one day

Zheng becomes the King,

will the smile

disappear from his face as well?

Will he be busy until he gets sick?

Will he be too busy to visit me?

Sometimes I wonder

what's so good about this throne?

Even you are a man

who wants to be the King.

Do you think you can be happy

if you become the King?

Women will never understand
men's thinking.

Fine!

Prince Xi, I wish you the best.

I wish you the throne you dream of.

But I hope that

when you've tasted the power,

don't be unhappy like His Majesty.

Don't make your wife unhappy.

I've talked too much.

For you,

a man who wants to be the King,

what's the point of these words?

Just k*ll me!

Enough.

Your words were so touching

that I seem to understand something.

Actually, there are more

important things to do

besides being the King in this world.

I want you to see your son

become the King.

Be the King of Qin.

Come with me.

I'll take you to save His Majesty now.

My lord.

As you expected,

the palace guards

are all attracted to
the Prime Minister's side.

Let's go.

Your Highness.

Lord Yangquan can't hold it anymore.

There's only one way now.

Who are you?

This is His Majesty's chamber.
Leave!

Get Madam Han out!

Yes.

Go!

Don't touch me!

Let me go!

Your Majesty!

Your Majesty!

Father!

Zheng.

Hurry, save your mother.

Your Majesty.

I'm late to help.

-Mother.
-Zheng.

Your Majesty.

Uncle.

Go to the square with my father and I.

Otherwise, there will be a bloodbath
in Zhangtai Palace.

Yes.

-Come with me.
-Let's go.

If you dare to step forward,

I'll be rude.

We want to see His Majesty!

Archers, get ready!

Guard!

The King is here!

Those with weapons will be k*lled!

Queen Dowager Huayang arrives.

Don't you bow

to the Queen Dowager?

Qin

has become so unruly.

Your Highness is right.

Good day, Your Highness.

Good day, Your Highness.

Rise.

How's His Majesty?

His Majesty is stable.

Good.

God bless Qin.

I hope His Majesty
will be safe and sound.

What does Your Highness

have to say for today?

Yes.

I did it all.

Investigating censor arrives.

An edict by the King.

This is the imperial edict.

Queen Dowager Huayang
and Lord Yangquan

sealed off Zhangtai Palace
and detained me.

They conspired to make chaos,
and they're unforgivable.

As they have

served the former King for many years,

I'll punish them lightly.

Queen Dowager Huayang will retain
her honour and food.

She will stay in Huayang Palace

and not allowed to leave
without my order.

She also can't transmit messages
with the outside world.

Lord Yangquan's property
will be confiscated.

His servants will be sold.

Lord Yangquan and his family

will be moved to different places
of Shang Commandery.

The Prime Minister

will decide the punishment
for the rest of the rebels.

Yes.

The palace

nearly turned into a b*ttlefield.

When I think about it,

I'll still have lingering fears.

If there's a slight accident

that endangers His Majesty,

it'll be hard for us
to redeem ourselves.

The b*ttlefield is often

in the middle of
a matter of life or death.

Minister of Imperial Affairs
lent us a hand today.

I'm grateful for it.

We're all descendants of Ying.

His Majesty is my brother.

It's my duty.

Your Majesty.

You guys go out first.

Zheng, stay here.

I'm fine.

I want to participate in
the military parade tomorrow.

It's better to rest for a few days
before organizing the military parade.

It must be tomorrow.

After this incident,

I have to participate in
the military parade in person

to calm the people.

I can also calm the six states'

desire to get restless.

I summoned you three here

to announce an edict.

Investigating censor!

Record this.

Yes.

Ying Zheng, accept the edict.

This is the imperial edict.

The eldest son of Zichu, King of Qin,

Ying Zheng,

has endured difficulties
since childhood.

He's resolute and tough,

loves the country,

talented,

and was just to my liking.

He'll be elected as

the Crown Prince of Qin.

I hereby announce to the world.

Thank you, father.

Congratulations, Crown Prince.

Everyone gets up.

Meng Ao, Wang He and Biao Gong

will be the Top General

and take care of military affairs.

Lv Buwei to be elected as

Ying Zheng's godfather.

He shall take charge of state affairs
with Queen Zhao

until Ying Zheng turns 20

and takes over.

Minister of Imperial Affairs, Ying Xi,

as the witness.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Zheng.

Greet your godfather.

You need to accept it.

Godfather.

Godfather.

Godfather.

I...

Will assist the Crown Prince
with my life

to repay your favour.

Crown Prince.

This sword should be returned
to its owner.

Thank you, uncle.

I have a few words

to talk with Zheng.

We'll get going.

Father!

Father.

For what I'm about to say,

you...

Must keep in your mind.

I'll forever remember

what you say.

I'll never forget it.

Since Xiao Gong till me,

Qin has had six kings.

It's over a hundred years.

A lot has changed.

Wei, Chu, Qi.

The overlords

of those years

have become dying
and struggling states.

Only Qin.

Only Qin...

Has been running all the way
like an angry horse.

On the horse's back,

it's not you

nor me,

but the world.

It's thousands of people in the world.

Do you understand?

I understand.

Remember.

Keep in mind.

Jin was divided by Han, Zhao and Wei.
Tian usurped Jiang and became Qi prince.

If not because of
excessive distributions,

too many families,

ministers are highly powerful

and go against the country,

now,

the world will be united.

In order for the people

no longer suffer from division

and the scourge of w*r,

the power of the world

must be in the hands of one King.

Only then...

The people

can be united

and achieve peace.

I've kept it in my mind.

Tomorrow,

you participate in
the military parade together with me.

Yes.

(Ying Zheng was elected
as heir to the throne of Qin.)

(He inherited the ambition of Qin kings
to unify the world)

(and opened a new page in the history
of the Qin Empire.)

(Xianyang is in chaos.)

(King of Qin is not a valiant person.)

(His two sons)

(are young.)

(The eldest son, Ying Zheng,
is just over ten years old.)

(I don't think he can achieve anything.)

(Where should I go?)

Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei, Qin.

Oh dear Li Si.

The world is so big,

but there's no place for you to grow.

What's the point of

years of studying

and researching the method of ruling?

What's the use?

(Xianyang)

(Xianyang)

Top General of Qin, Meng Ao

greets Your Majesty!

Elite soldiers of Qin have assembled!

Your Majesty, please patrol!

Yes.

Military parade begins!

(Qin)

(Qin)

(Qin)

(Xianyang)

(Qin)

Kneel!

Long live the King!

Long live the King!

(Qin)

(Qin)

Say a few words on behalf of me.

Say what you want to.

Say what they understand.

Elite soldiers of Qin!

Yes!

Yes!

The world

has been in a chaos for 500 years!

Our ancestors,

parents,

and brothers

had shed endless blood.

Do you want your grandchildren,

wife and children

to live in such troubled times?

No!

Send troops,

stop riot,

unite the six states!

Only when the world is united

can you let go of the spears!

Only when the world is united

can bring the world peace!

Yes!

Yes!
