=Episode 40=

(Zhaixing Pavilion, Yueluo)

We're back here.

Your Majesty,

does nostalgia get to you?

Chun,

Liang State has won the w*r again.

You may rest in peace.

Prince Qi can see Liang State's victory

of today,

but the people

don't know the truth of the past.

You all ask me for the truth,

and for justice.

You even think I k*lled Prince Qi.

You think I k*lled my own brother

in order to take over the throne.

But Prince Qi

is my own brother.

(20 years ago)

Big Brother, you're here.

I haven't practiced for a long time

and I'm getting bad at it.

Big Brother.

When you were first learning to write,

I was the one

who prepared the ink for you.

(Human nature is good

as water flows downhill)

Nice handwriting.

You taught me to write the first word

I ever wrote.

Chun,

why did you run away?

Do you really think

I'd k*ll you?

When I was young,

I was too weak

for strong winds.

I envied you for being able

to follow Father

on the b*ttlefield

and protect our country.

You knew what I was thinking,

(so you hunted a tiger yourself)

(to make a tiger-skin coat)

(for me to wear)

(and took me on a gallop.)

(It was my first time on horseback.)

I've always

been grateful to you in my heart.

But you still caught the cold.

Father scolded me for being ambitious

and said I

deliberately harmed you.

I know.

Father has always been harsh on you,

but in my heart,

you're always my big brother.

Water

can also flow upwards,

over a man's forehead,

or it can be made

to flow over a hill.

It is the nature of water

to flow downhill,

and it is the nature

of the human heart

to get ambitious.

Today, you and I are brothers

and we can talk about brotherhood.

In the future,

when you and I

are a ruler and a subject,

there will be superiority

and inferiority.

It seems you and I

will never have the chance

to ride side by side again.

There are many things that

could go side by side in this world,

but there is only

one throne.

Big Brother,

if only you and I were born

into an ordinary family.

We would have been the closest brothers

in the world.

We'd work in the daytime,

go to bed at night,

take care of our parents,

and get along with each other.

You're a simple man

like pure water

who aspires to be a commoner.

But it's a world where everyone

can't get what they want.

I've suffered enough.

I don't want to suffer anymore.

Chun,

if you want to blame someone,

just blame Father.

He refused to pass the throne to me.

This is no longer

a fight between you and me.

If Liang State is to be stable,

the imperial court

must first be stabilized.

We can't have any more party cliques.

Only one man in a position of power

can settle the disputes.

It's a pity

I can never see the starry sky

and bright moon

with you again.

It all started with us,

and it will end with us.

I'd die to put an end to all this.

I hope that Your Majesty

will protect the people,

compassionate the people,

rid the world of injustice,

and return justice to the people.

Your Majesty will be a wise ruler

with benevolence and virtue.

I will be happy for you

in the afterlife.

I

will grant you your wish.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Big Brother,

after this parting,

may we be ordinary brothers

in the next life,

close to each other,

and no more disputes.

I didn't k*ll him.

What's the difference

between that and k*lling him?

You drove him to his death

and put all the blame

on Xiao Haitian

and Yueluo.

If I wanted to build a strong kingdom,

and protect the people,

I'd have to give up my personal desires,

some people,

including my own brother.

Winner makes the rules,

and losers live by them.

It's been that way since ancient times.

It's just a whitewash

for your dirty ambitions.

You misrepresent facts

and distort the truth.

You made Xiao Haitian a scorned man

in life and in death.

you enslaved

Yueluo for 20 years

and made them suffer

all sorts of humiliations.

I'll ask you again,

who are you talking to me as?

I know

your name is Xiao Wuxia,

the son of Xiao Haitian.

Xiao Haitian

had aided Prince Qi

to intervene in Liang State's affair

and it's impossible for him

to get out of the situation.

Even if he was dragged into the game.

But who in this game

wasn't forced by fate?

He's a scourge of Liang State.

He must die.

What about Consort Wei?

Why did you k*ll her?

Consort Wei was the woman I loved.

She shouldn't have met Yan Shuangqiao,

and she shouldn't have said that to me.

There's an assassin!

Let go of Consort Wei!

Stop there.

I'll k*ll anyone

who takes a step forward!

Your Majesty,

did you really k*ll Prince Qi?

You k*lled Consort Wei

because she knew her husband

was the one

who caused the destruction

of her family?

And you even k*lled the child

in her womb!

Ci, you've woken up.

Is Wei Zhao back?

Not yet.

I wonder what's going on.

A lot of people are heading

towards Zhaixing Pavilion.

Zhaixing Pavilion?

Mr. Cui,

get Ms. Jiang out of here.

Wei Zhao is really good

at hiding women in his house.

I'm having a hard time

finding Princess Yong'an.

Eunuch Jiang, you've got a good nose

for a dog, don't you?

You mean girl,

I'll make sure you'll all die

in pieces today.

Miss, get out of here!

You must be careful!

This way.

Ci.

Your Lordship.

Where is Wei Zhao?

His Majesty has threatened Sanlang

with the civilians,

so that he has to keep his mouth shut.

Sanlang did everything he could

for Yueluo.

What about his father's grievance?

He'll probably never be able

to reveal it.

Where is he now?

They're now at Zhaixing Pavilion

to worship Prince Qi.

Something is wrong.

I smelled sulphur on Jiang Yuan.

There's an ambush at Zhaixing Pavilion.

Probably gunpowder.

I'm going to tell Wei Zhao.

I'll go with you.

Tong Min

you and Ziming

We're going to call the others

for help right now.

You must be careful.

Let's go.

You keep saying

it's God's will,

no one has a choice.

But Prince Qi chose

to sacrifice for the people,

and my father chose

to sacrifice for justice.

You've never chosen anything

but your own selfish desires.

I've been working hard

to govern the country for 20 years.

In the past 20 years,

Liang State has been blessed

with abundant goods

and good weather,

and the people have lived

and worked in peace.

I've been protecting the people

and being compassionate.

I've got a clear conscience.

What will you do if the people ask

about Prince Qi's case?

You'd avoid them, deceive them

or even k*ll them.

If you truly care about the people,

you should know

that all they want is a place of peace.

They don't want to be separated,

and they don't want to be trampled on.

But for your ambition,

you've enslaved the poor and the weak

and wronged the innocent.

But now, I am the ruler of Liang State.

Winner makes the rules,

and losers live by them.

I have the final say

in all of this.

Sanlang,

you still don't know that winner

makes the rules and losers live by them.

I've planted

gunpowder underneath.

Everything in the past

will go up in smoke.

You won't be able to escape.

Are you trying

to accuse Yueluo falsely again?

The people of Yueluo are unrepentant.

They planted gunpowder

and tried to k*ll me.

Wei Zhao, Commander of Light Bureau

died protecting me.

Don't worry, Sanlang.

I'll save you a good reputation.

He's too poisoned to fight.

Attack!

Protecting the Emperor!

Sanlang.

Twenty years ago,

you made up a story

to bring my father and Yueluo to shame.

Today's story

is mine to tell.

The Emperor of Liang State

died at the hands of a sycophant,

Wei Zhao,

and no one else.

Wei Zhao!

Wei Zhao!

Wei Zhao.

Wei Zhao.

Wei Zhao.

Wei Zhao.

I'm here.

Wei Zhao.

Wei Zhao, wait for me.

I'll get you out.

It's all over now.

No one can hurt you anymore.

From now on, you'll be free

to see all the beautiful scenery

and taste all the delicious food

in the world.

Okay.

I'll wait for you.

I'll wait for you to take me with you.

Hang in there.

Wait for me.

I've lost all my family

and left my home.

If it wasn't for you,

my life would have been

filled with hatred.

Now,

I have no regrets

as I have returned to my homeland.

You promised me.

You promised to go with me

to see the world.

Don't you dare lie to me.

I've got a present for you

at the old residence.

In the future,

wherever you go,

Yueluo is your home.

And I'll be watching over you

in Yueluo.

I'll wait for you to take me with you.

Hang in there.

I'll get you out of here in a minute.

Pei Yan.

Sanlang.

Take care of Jiang Ci.

I'm counting on you

for Yueluo.

Your Lordship.

Ci,

don't stand on ceremony with me.

Your Lordship,

I have a favor to ask of you.

I know even if you don't say it.

I promised Sanlang

I'd watch over Yueluo

from now on.

Thank you, Your Lordship.

This is what I should do.

What about you?

What are your plans for the future?

Ci,

just go back to Qingkang.

It's all over.

No one will ever hurt you again.

If you want to save lives,

I'll open a medical center for you.

You can still do what you want.

Standing on the peak

and looking over all the people.

How can we not be lonely

in the vast expanse of heaven and earth?

Your Lordship,

the peace of the world

lies in your hands.

Summon Chancellor for an audience.

Pei Yan

is here to greet Your Majesty.

I ask Your Majesty to issue a decree

to clear Yueluo's reputation,

abolish forced labor,

abolish sl*very,

promote Confucianism,

and extend compassion to the people

so that the government

will be safe from corruption

and everyone will be united.

Approved.

(Lord of Jianding's Residence)

Now, everything

has been put to an end.

I finally have a chance

to travel around the world.

Your Lordship,

I want to be myself again.

Sanlang's gone,

and so is Ci.

An Cheng was sacrificed

because of my mistake.

Now, I can't

keep Ziming either.

Your Lordship,

Peace has just been restored

to the world.

Agriculture should be emphasized

and taxes should be reduced.

Keeping honest officials on duty

to listen to the people's voices

Nothing but kindness,

nothing but virtue.

Although Yueluo's injustice

has been resolved,

the promise between you

and Wei Zhao has not yet been fulfilled.

Please remember

your promise to Wei Zhao

in order to comfort his soul.

I believe

that you will become

a good chancellor

with your benevolent governance.

Go and buy a scented pouch.

He said

he'd come back to see you

You've had

a tough life.

Now, we have our grievances redressed.

You must rest in peace.

Thank you

for bringing Yu Lian back to me.

for so many years

that I've developed feelings

I've decided to stay.

I won't leave.

Will you feel more at ease?

Young Master.

I've been with you for years.

I wished you'd take off your mask

and I wanted to see you get married

and have kids and grandchildren.

I can't see that anymore.

I can't see that anymore.
