Lost You Forever S2

Episode 20

Xiaoyao.

Xiaoyao. Xiaoyao.

Xiaoyao!

What tea is it?

How can it produce

such a realistic illusion?

It's tea from the divine tree on Mount Dushuo.

It blooms once every 3,000 years, bears fruit once every 3,000 years,

and matures once every 3,000 years.

It takes 9,000 years of cultivation to bear the "Karma Fruit".

Illusion of Karma.

What did you see in the illusion?

I k*lled Tushan Jing.

Xiaoyao couldn't bear to k*ll me.

So she k*lled herself.

I didn't solicit Tushan Hou
to k*ll Tushan Jing.

I knew it wasn't you.

If it were you, you wouldn't let Xiaoyao go to Qingshui Town.

Then why did you

interrogate me
with the Illusion of Karma?

People fear karma but I fear the cause.

Without a cause, this tea
won't bring out any karma.

Xiaoyao grew up among the commoners.

She didn't know the sinister means of
the great clans and couldn't notice the flaws.

But you?

You didn't have the slightest doubt about the origin of the assassins?

It was my negligence.

Cang Xuan. Tell me the truth.

Have you felt secretly pleased with what happened to Tushan Jing?

You can't easily fool Xiaoyao.

She's convinced that you would investigate
thoroughly and wouldn't miss any clue.

You must not fail her trust in you.

I will never fail Xiaoyao.

You should feel lucky

that the mastermind wasn't as patient as you
and took action before you.

Otherwise, what you saw
just now wouldn't be an illusion.

Why are you suddenly visiting me, Fenglong?

Don't tell me you don't recognize this.

This is Fangfeng Yiying's weapon.

So what if I recognize it?

All those 108 highly skilled assassins

had their faces and traces
removed since childhood.

Chenrong Xinyue,

the Chenrong Family assigned you these trained assassins to protect yourself in critical moments,

not to commit evil deeds.

Did you do it?

Yes, it was me.

That was your Brother Jing you grew up with.

How could you do that?

Tushan Jing was just collateral.

The person I really wanted
to k*ll was Xiling Jiuyao.

I didn't expect that Fangfeng Yiying
would develop feelings for an enemy and change her mind.

That madman Tushan Hou accomplished nothing
and spoiled everything.

He could have just k*lled Jing.

But he had to have a fair fight
with Tushan Jing.

And he failed. Useless.

You are the mad one.

Do you know who Xiling Jiuyao is?

If you k*ll her, will the Great
Emperor and His Majesty let you off?

We've been oppressed for centuries
and finally got a break.

Do you want to put our clan at risk again?

I had the guts to do it.

Of course, I had a way out.

Tushan Jing and Xiling Jiuyao

made Tushan Hou and Fangfeng Yiying
lose everything they had.

They k*lled Tushan Jing
and Xiling Jiuyao for revenge.

Isn't that a matter of course?

Now, Tushan Hou and
Fangfeng Yiying are dead.

There are no witnesses.

You don't have to worry.

You focus on trivial matters all day

and end up short-sighted and narrow-minded.

How can you fathom what the Great Emperor
and His Majesty would do?

I shouldn't have let you become the queen
while you lack virtue for your position.

- It's brewing trouble!
- Indeed.

I'm not as open-minded and insightful as you.

Because I grew up in Xiyan Town as a hostage.

Not only was I mocked and bullied,

but I also lived in constant fear,
scared that I'd become a prisoner at any time.

But rest assured.

I'll bear the consequences.

Should trouble arise, you and our family won't be implicated.

I've taken care of
everything in Qingshui Town.

But remember.

Just this once.

You're on your own from now on.

Xiaoyao. Your hair.

It's okay.
It's just a few strands of grey hair.

You're just in time.

Help me find an expert of wood attribute to deal with these manuscripts.

I want them to be impervious to
water, fire, and insects.

I will find you an expert of wood attribute to make these manuscripts waterproof,

fireproof, and insect proof.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

I know you are still angry about the wedding.

Xiaoyao.

As long as you are alive,

you can do whatever you want.

Rest assured.

I haven't compiled my medical book.

I will take good care of myself
and wait for Jing.

I want to ask you something.

Go ahead.

You said it was different this time.

Why is it different?

Because Mother and Jing are different.

She was my mother but she was also a citizen of Xiyan.

She values me but
her responsibility matters more.

When she was forced to choose,
I would inevitably be abandoned.

But I don't blame her.

After all, she was already
a citizen of Xiyan before I was born.

So she had a responsibility.

But for Jing,

I'm the most important.

Mother would abandon me and die.

But Jing would live for me.

He can't bear to part with me.

No matter how hard it is,

he will definitely come back.

- Tushan Jing is that important to you?
- Yes, he is.

Xuan.

I don't believe that Jing is dead.

I'll keep looking for him.

Do you understand?

Yes, I do.

I will tell them to keep looking.

♫ I cherished everything, yet remained indifferent to wealth and fame ♫

♫ Amidst the sunlight, I couldn't feel your radiance light ♫

What's wrong?

No matter what happens, Xiaoyao,

remember,

it's all my fault.

I'm the one to blame.

Okay. No matter what, it's your fault.

You're the one to blame.

It's my fault.

I was wrong from the very beginning.

You haven't done anything wrong.

Even if I have, it's because you spoiled me.

♫ Without you, even the grandest scenery becomes dull ♫

♫ It began with a turbulent storm and leaving nothing but dust behind ♫

♫ Without you, the world's beauty loses its symphony ♫

Is His Majesty still at Xiaoyue Peak?

Your Majesty. His Majesty returned after
his dinner with the Great Emperor.

So early?

I thought he would rather stay there.

His Majesty summoned Chief Lirong.

I assume that he has matters to attend to.

Your Majesty. His Majesty has arrived.

Linglan. Help me put on makeup.

- Wipe it and put it in the gift box.
- Alright.

And my zither. Set it up.

Once I present the flute to His Majesty,
we can play a duet to test its tone.

Understood.

- Your Majesty.
- Leave us alone.

Understood.

Your Majesty.
Have I done something wrong?

You ordered Tushan Hou to k*ll Tushan Jing.

I don't know what Your Majesty is saying.

Wasn't Jing k*lled by Tushan Hou?

Those assassins were your people, right?

I just can't figure out
why you wanted to k*ll Tushan Jing.

What do you gain from his death?

Your Majesty does not know
the benefits of k*lling Tushan Jing?

He had to die for Your Majesty to marry
the one you were longing for.

What did you say?

Don't you want to marry Xiling Jiuyao?

Don't you feel jealous of Tushan Jing
and want him to vanish?

I'm asking why you wanted
to k*ll Tushan Jing.

Why?

You're so smart, yet you can't see through it.

It seems that you've never

paid any attention to me.

You wanted to k*ll Xiaoyao.

That's right.

She was the one I wanted to k*ll.

Chenrong Xinyue.

You are unreasonable and insatiable.

I am unreasonable and insatiable?

What about you?

Aren't you also insatiable
and always asking for more?

Before you ascended the throne, you sent
your beloved one into another man's arms.

But you regret it once you gain power
and try to get her back.

Xiyan Cang Xuan. I'm Chenrong Xinyue.

If you have the guts,

demote and execute me.

I dare not.

Don't you want to be the queen?

I will let you be the queen
without any real power.

You'll be the thorn in people's flesh
and wither in agony.

Chenrong Xinyue.

Enjoy being the esteemed queen.

Great Emperor. Your Majesty.

Hong Jiang still refuses to submit.

I believe we have to launch an attack
and resolve this major concern.

Everyone,

who wishes to lead the troops?

I'd love to.

It's just that I have been crushed by Xiang Liu

and can't take on the position of the general.

I wish to lead the troops.

If you volunteer, I'll certainly follow.
I volunteer, too.

Alright. Convey my decree.

Ru Shou will be the general.
Qin Mang will be the deputy general.

- Dispatch...
- Your Majesty. I volunteer.

Your Majesty, please allow me to lead troops.

Fenglong, it is not a trivial matter.

Do not act impulsively.

It's not an impulsive decision.
I have thought it through.

Please, Your Majesty.

Approved.

Hong Jiang pledges his loyalty
to the Chenrong Kingdom.

I surrendered and let my father down.

But now, you're leading troops

to exterminate the last Chenrong army.

His Majesty showed mercy and didn't let the
clans of the Central Plains lead the troops.

But you craved credit and volunteered to fight.

You ungrateful traitor of the entire family!

I didn't crave credit.

I have compelling reasons.

What is it?

Xinyue conspired with
Tushan Hou and Fangfeng Yiying

to k*ll Xiaoyao and Jing.

Xiaoyao may be fine,

but Jing's

remains are nowhere to be found.

Xinyue could have been k*lled
for committing such a crime.

But with you here, with me here,

and with all the clans of Central Plains here,

His Majesty can't demote and k*ll her.

But she has to suffer alive.

Xinyue's life is doomed.

For some personal reasons, I noticed
something wrong but tried to conceal it.

I have let Jing and His Majesty down.

I'm too ashamed to plead for my sister.

But how can I just stand by
and watch Xinyue suffer?

If I can lead the troops

and resolve a major concern for
the Great Emperor and His Majesty,

I won't ask for any awards or titles.

I'll only ask His Majesty to forgive Xinyue.

Greetings, Your Majesty.

Lord Chishui, you must be very busy.

How come you have time to visit me?

Today is our birthday.

I don't have time to hold a feast to
celebrate with you because I'm heading for w*r.

So I prepared a gift.

I hope you like it.

His Majesty placed me under
house arrest and stripped me of power.

You and Father dare not
say a word to His Majesty.

Why bother pretending
to be a good brother here?

Go ahead and fight for your future.

Don't let your useless sister hold you back.

You made a huge mistake.

Father and I are in debt to the
Tushan Family and His Majesty.

We're too ashamed to plead for you.

Get out of here.

From now on, we have
nothing to do with each other.

You are not welcome here!

I know you're having a hard time.

Please put up with it.
Wait until I return from the w*r.

Even if you don't want me as your brother,
we're bound by blood.

You'll always be my sister.

Get out!

I'll take my leave.

Do you remember the strategy we discussed?

Yes, I do. Encircle and slowly eradicate them.

Good.

We don't need to rush.
Try to minimize casualties.

Exhaust the enemy until they reach
their limit and deliver a crushing blow.

- Understood.
- Understood.

Xiaoyao. Go out for a walk.

Don't stay cooped up indoors.

You'll get sick like that.

I have so much work to do every day.

What makes you think
that I'm cooped up indoors?

If Jing knew that you were neglecting
your health, he would be upset too.

Honestly, Grandfather,
I'm still upset every day.

And I have trouble sleeping.

I want to finish the book exactly because
I know how terrible I feel.

Why is that?

The greatest sorrow in life
is losing parents at a young age,

losing a partner in the prime years,
and losing a child in old age.

Once I finish the medical book,

there might be one less orphan,

one less widow or widower,
and one less sorrowful senior.

Birth, aging, illness, and death.
Joy, sorrow, partings, and reunions.

We can't control birth and aging.

But we can cure some illnesses
and prevent some deaths.

I hope this world sees more reunions and fewer partings,

more laughter and fewer tears.

"My pain makes me relate
to others who are in pain."

Great Emperor.

Miss.

So beautiful.

Come on. Confirm it.

I will draw it in the book.

These herbs were not mentioned
in any medical books. They are new.

The stationery belongs to Jing.

You can change them if they're not handy.

They're just fine.

These herbs are confirmed.

Okay.

Xiaoyao.

There are things I have to tell you.

I'm listening.

Fenglong is leading the troops
to fight Hong Jiang today.

I know that you're
acquainted with Xiang Liu.

Cang Xuan and I have done our best,

but Hong Jiang and Xiang Liu
wouldn't surrender.

I understand.

This w*r is inevitable.

For Xiyan, that is a must.

For Hong Jiang, it's also a kind of relief.

I understand.

You hold a different stance from Xiang Liu.

Some things are destined.

I understand.

What are you thinking?

I'm thinking about Qingshui Town.

Rest assured.
Cang Xuan has also lived there.

He has ordered the officials
to properly settle the local residents.

You are thinking about Xiang Liu, right?

The business of Rejuvenation Hall was alright.

It was just enough to support our large family.

[Rejuvenation Hall]

Mu.

You're back.

Out of the back door of the Rejuvenation Hall,

there was Mu's
most precious medicinal field.

Not far from the medicinal field
lay the West River.

By the West River, I found a beggar

and named him Ye Shiqi.

Beggar. From now on, you will be Ye Shiqi.

To help Skinny and Pimply marry someone,

I went into the mountains after Feifei
and ran into Chubby.

Xiang Liu thought I was a spy,
so he gave me forty lashes.

In the end, Shiqi carried me back home.

I set my mind on poisoning Xiang Liu,

but poisoned Shiqi instead.

♫ An empty heart is like a colorless crescent moon ♫

♫ Sorrow and joy and anxiety, the longing is carried away by wind and rain ♫

♫ May the brows be bright, eyes warm, and there's a stream of beautiful hearts ♫

♫ Even with flowers blooming, but I prefer the daily life in the Mortal World ♫

[Rejuvenation Hall]

♫ I wish to claim this lifetime as my own♫

♫ I choose to have love on the left and you on the right ♫

♫ Brief moments of sorrow and joy change things so quickly ♫

♫ Embracing each while entering the edge of rebirth♫

♫ Bound by karma, marriages establishes its shell and connections ♫

♫ The color from when I first saw you fade away ♫

Once, Xiang Liu came to me injured.

I saw that he couldn't move and
took a piece of charcoal from the stove

and drew eyes on his face.

I drew seven eyes in total.

Plus his own eyes, there were nine.

He glared at me fiercely.

But it was weird

because I could feel
that he had no intention to k*ll me.

♫ I almost forgot about
the first time I met you ♫

♫ The destiny brought us together ♫

♫ We drank and sang under the moon ♫

♫ My heart is empty ♫

The shared feeling

puts two people in agony.

♫ May the brows be bright, eyes warm, there be a river of beautiful hearts ♫

♫ The flowers bloom, but I'm still partial to daily life in the mortal world ♫

We all know what's going on out there.

This battle is different.
It's the final battle of life and death.

Those who want to leave can leave.

For those who wish to stay,
I truly appreciate it.

I also appreciate those who want to leave.

Yearning for life is nothing shameful.

Those who want to leave, let's
drink up the wine as a proper farewell.

The way I see it,

the person who should pack up and beat it is the advisor.

But the advisor hasn't left.
How could we bear to leave?

Let's stick together. It's no big deal.

We just die in the worst case.

- Yeah!
- Yeah!

Alright.

Let's fight together to the end!

- Fight to the end!
- Fight to the end!

- Let's do this!
- Let's do this!

Brothers! Run!

Darn it. They're running away again.
Catch them.

Your Lordship, no. It may be a trap.

What...

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Five.

One.

You are diligent in training.

You prohibited me from the b*ttlefield.

I can only watch them training.

There is a task specifically for you.

Tell me.

Tonight, please lead
a surprise attack on Xiyan Army.

Make it as noisy as possible to alarm Chishui Fenglong.

Why tonight?

The time has come.

Xiyan is in power and can take its time.

But can Xinyue put up with it for ten years?

- What's going on?
- What happened?

Sneak attack. Sneak attack.

The Chenrong rebels are here!

We're getting busy today.

Report.

General. Hong Jiang sneaked upon us and wanted
to retreat after destroying our supplies.

Hong Jiang? You sure it's him?

I'm sure it's him.

Capture their leader first.

We can't let him escape this time.

- Chu Man.
- Here.

- Follow me to catch Hong Jiang.
- Understood.

General, don't.

He finally showed up after a whole year.

We can't let him escape.

Grandfather.

Fenglong rushed to chase after Hong Jiang and
fell into Xiang Liu's trap. He lost big time.

Chief Yanyu, Chief Huhe and Chief Shusha
submitted a petition to change the general.

Changing generals before
the w*r is a great taboo.

.

And Fenglong is special.

If we replace him,

his supporters would say that

I distrust the Central Plains generals
and replace him after a single defeat.

Those who do not support him would say

that Central Plains generals harbor
ulterior motives and I no longer trust them.

Do you trust Fenglong?

Of course, I do.

Otherwise, I wouldn't
have let him lead the troops.

Grandfather.

I want to go to Qingshui Town.

Go ahead.

I will go with you.

No. It's dangerous.

I'll stay by your side.

Can't you guarantee your safety?

If not, neither of us would let you go there.

You're always so sharp-tongued.

Cang Xuan.

Take Xiaoyao with you.

She has lived in Qingshui Town
for many years.

Let her take a look. She's been longing for it.

Fine. You can come along.

But you can't leave my side.
Always follow my instructions.

Okay.

[Qingshui Town]

This place used to be
the busiest in Qingshui Town.

Travelers and locals would gather
in the tea house to pass the time.

I heard that the stone demon of
Qingshui Town loved to tell stories.

It was the place
with the most up-to-date gossip.

I came straight here after
I arrived at Qingshui Town.

- Xiaoliu, come again!
- I'm off.

- Take care.
- I'm leaving.

Xiaoliu, take care.

Whoever can't have a baby
can come to the Rejuvenation Hall.

Are you alright? Sorry.




'Nothing Can Be Compared to You' - Jason Zhang

♫ Looking back on my old days ♫

♫ I was unruffled
with no sorrow and soreness ♫

♫ In my chaotic life,
I failed to meet your gaze ♫

♫ Only emptiness remained ♫

♫ Enduring all things in my life ♫

♫ I valued all but indifferent
to wealth and fame ♫

♫ Basking in the sun,
I couldn't feel your sunlight ♫

♫ All I feel is a painful heat wave ♫

♫ All things are dim,
while only your eyes shine bright ♫

♫ I'll follow my heart
and go to chase the sun far away ♫

♫ Everything seems sad,
while only your brows raise in delight ♫

♫ I'm waiting for you
to enjoy the scenery at night ♫

♫ You came with wind and rain,
while left with my four seasons ♫

♫ All is bleak without you ♫

♫ It began like a tornado,
and went away leaving only dust ♫

♫ Without you,
even the most beautiful world is a mess ♫
