About this matter today, if anyone leaks out anything, don't blame me for being merciless!

Your Grace, don't worry.

There's two hours to go before dawn.

You'll arrive in time unless there's any accident.

Forgive me for being rude tonight.

I even involved you into this matter.

But you return it with kindness and send me to Ci'an Temple in person.

I don't know how to thank you.

Your Grace, never mind.

If the soldiers examine us on the way, I can help to cover up.

Tonight is full of dangers.

But it reminds me of what happened to my husband and me in the army.

I'm getting old now.

To stay in the mansion every day is really boring.

Now I feel much better to get out for some time.

I've got some confusion.

May I ask you, Your Grace?

I'll tell you all I know.

If my son hadn't obeyed you, what would you do?

Madam, I'm very sorry.

But I might torture you, in order to force him to do as told.

It seems my guess was right.

Though I always stay indoors, I heard a lot about you.

Today seeing is believing.

In times of danger, we need to make quick decisions.

My son is well known for his filial piety.

But he won't listen to you to hurt the country in order to save me.

(National Prosperity) Madam.

Lots of soldiers are chasing us!

Quickly.

Go faster, go!

This way.

Your Grace, she's back.

Awu.

(Supreme Peace) She is back.

Awu.

Mother.

Who is this?

We couldn't have made it, without Madam Wei's assistance.

It's a long story to tell.

I will let you know the details some other day.

There are pursuers behind us.

All right, let's go inside.

Come on.

- Quickly!

- Be quick!

- Hurry up, close the door!

- Be quick!

Be quick!

- Open up now!

- Be quick!

Wait!

Who are you?

How dare you be so rude!

Your Grace, Madam Wei, I didn't know you were here.

Sorry for my rudeness.

I'm Patrol Officer Zhang Dong Someone reported a carriage running hastily during the night.

It may carry suspects.

So I was chasing it till here.

It was just Madam Wei in the carriage.

What suspect do you mean?

Sorry for my rudeness.

Lately, there's a curfew in the Capital.

Madam, why are you coming here in the middle of night?

Your Grace, please calm down.

I think the Patrol Officer had no choice.

My daughter-in-law is about to give birth.

Her Grace told me that the first incense of Ci'an Temple is always answered.

So I set up before dawn.

I never thought this would make you misunderstand.

If you keep delaying us, we will fail to burn the first incense and ruin Madam Wei's hope.

As it's known to all, General Wei is well-known for his filial piety.

If he hears about this, what would he think of you?

Ummm... My apologies.

Your Grace, Madam Wei, do forgive me for disturbing you.

I'm excused.

Let's go!

Mother, time is up.

I must go back now.

Go ahead.

Take care.

I will.

Madam Wei, take care, too.

Take care, Your Grace.

Your Highness, how about last night?

Everything was normal, nothing happened.

Open the door!

Yes.

Your Highness, Your Highness!

Something big happened!

Yesterday, you hang up two courtiers.

They...

They died... Other courtiers in Taiji Hall got to know this and started making trouble again.

They are saying... What?

Your Highness is a humiliation to the royal family.

And... And if things go on like this, they would rather risk their lives in pressing their points.

Also, they said you'd better kill them.

They really thought I dare not to kill them!

When I get the imperial edict and the Imperial Seal, we'll see.

Your Highness, there's one more thing.

Say it.

Someone out of the palace reported that he seemed to see Princess Consort Yuzhang.

How did she go out of the palace?

Forgive me, forgive me!

- Forgive me.

- What did you say?

Who did he see?

He said...

He saw Princess Consort Yuzhang.

You loser!

Awu.

Thank you for the night.

It's my duty to take care of Uncle.

Your Majesty, how are you feeling today?

Thanks to you, I'm still alive.

Uncle.

- Are you alright?

- It's my fault Awu, go get changed.

It's been a tough night.

Go back and take some rest.

Yes.

Go ahead.

Wait.

It's reported that last night someone caught sight of you out of the palace.

Is it?

If I left the palace, how would I come back?

I'm warning you.

Don't play tricks with me.

Awu, what happened?

Why didn't you come back the whole night?

I've been taking care of Uncle.

Has Zilv done anything to you?

Why do you look so messy?

I need some rest.

Awu, I've been waiting for you the whole night.

I'm tired.

You are tired?

Do you know how I went through the whole night?

I've been worried all the time.

I tried a million times to rush out and find you, but was stopped by them every time.

You are tired?

I also feel exhausted!

Rushed out?

Do you know the consequences if you have rushed out?

In the palace, danger is everywhere.

Do you really think Zilv would let you off because you are brothers?

I don't care!

If I was afraid to die, why did I come back for you?

I didn't know you could be so silly!

Silly?

That's because I was worried about you!

You were in danger all the time!

Do you really...

Worried about me?

If you really cared about me, you shouldn't have been captured as a prisoner with me, and trapped here helplessly with no other choices at all.

If you really cared about me, you should have stayed out of the palace right now, and none whatever you can to stop Zilv.

You are silly enough to fall into the trap.

You can't save me by doing this.

And you may get yourself killed in the end.

I'm not afraid of death!

As long as I'm with you... Wake up.

Zitan, in your mind, you only care for romance.

But I don't.

Your Highness, His Majesty is feeling ill.

He's getting worse day by day.

If it goes on, I'm afraid he can't make it this winter.

It's been long enough.

Leave us.

Yes.

(Lord Jianning) Want to break through?

It'll be his suicide.

I must catch Xiao Qi alive today!

Kill!

Kill!

Kill!

Stop!

My Lord, why did we stop?

Have we received Duke Huan's signal?

Not yet.

(Lord Jianning) But they've lost the pass.

Duke Huan must have taken action.

The drugs your asked us to pour was mixed with water.

Anyone who drank it would die within a month.

In such hot weather, without drinking water, no one can stand for a day.

Lord Yuzhang is not just nobody.

If Duke Huan made it already, why is there still no signal from him?

My Lord, look!

It's smoke signal.

Good!

Then I have nothing to worry about.

Attention, cavalries.

Yes!

Stamp out Guiwu Valley!

Charge!

Charge!

Stop!

- Shoot!

- Shoot!

Kill whoever retreats!

For this kind of long spear array, it only works for long distance fighting.

It won't work for close combat.

Heavy armor, make covers!

Go and crash their vehicles!

Turn to the mid-way, go!

My Lord, they went beyond our shooting range!

Well done.

Throw fire pots.

Yes.

Fire pots, get ready!

Go!

My lord, it's Duke Huan.

Duke Huan.

- Retreat!

- Retreat!

Protect the Lord.

Be quick!

Be quick!

- Run, move!

- Be quick!

Be quick!

Charge!

Charge!

Xiao Qi, you once said Huai'en is trustworthy.

When I gave him the Tiger Tally last night, I handed over half of the destiny of the Capital and the Country.

I don't know if my choice was correct.

But I can't hesitate.

I had no other choice.

Who's it?

I'm General Song Huai'en under the command of Lord Yuzhang.

I've an important matter to discuss with the generals in the army.

General Song, please.

General Song, what's for?

With the secret edict of His Majesty, I'm calling up the capital army to relieve the Capital from its crisis.

(The edict represents me.

Come to the palace immediately.)

(And suppress Zilv's rebellion.)

(Kill whoever resists.)

Catch him!

Why do you bring me here?

What's your intention?

If I say I'm just trying to show filial piety, would you believe it?

I can't believe I have a good son like you.

In my memory, this is where I saw you most frequently.

Because I often saw you sitting there alone.

I was thinking as an emperor, you might sometimes feel as lonely as me.

At that time, the Crown Prince had the Empress.

Zitan had Noble Consort Xie.

Every time I saw you visit their palaces, they could meet their father.

What about me?

I used to burn the midnight oil reading, just to win your compliment.

During the monthly test of the princes, I ranked the first.

But so what?

When you betrothed my girl to Wang Su by force in order to appease the Wang Family, I started to resent you!

I deserved it.

If I knew you are the child of Lord Jianning and that woman, I should have made an order to kill you on the moment you were born.

You are right, Your Majesty.

You are right.

Have you ever heard of a kind of sparrow in the south?

It's called cuckoo.

They would lay their eggs into the nest of other birds.

Other birds know nothing about this.

They would bring cuckoo's kids up.

Do you know what would cuckoo's kids do when they grow up?

What do you want?

My Lord, we fell into their trick!

Out of the entry of the valley, Lord Yuzhang's subordinate Tang Jing has surrounded us with tens of thousands of soldiers!

And... And... And what?

They said they captured the Six Towns.

Governor of Pengze who supported us has been killed.

Soldiers, fight out our way with me!

Why just stand there?

Are you trying to disobey my order?

Lord Yuzhang is coming!

Xiao Qi, it's either you or me die today!

My Lord, there's no chance we can win.

Let's just surrender.

My lord, I have lived up to my duty.

The rebel army in the Six Towns have been put down.

Very good!

Kneel.

Don't be rude.

I had not expected it.

I have been fighting in my whole life, but I'll end at your hand, Lord Yuzhang.

I want to know how I get the end.

Ask, please.

How did you know Duke Huan was working in concert with me?

Duke Huan had sent his subject to poison our water source and he was seen.

You doubted Duke Huan long ago?

Yesterday you told him on purpose to let me believe you really intended to breakthrough.

You used the wrong person, Lord Jianning.

You thought our Lord had to trust him simply because he was sent by the Prime Minister?

Then how did you get the reinforcements?

You all thought Guiwu Valley is a dead end.

But I knew there was a road to the outside of the valley.

It was my army that attacked Pengze and outflanked you from behind.

I had no reinforcements.

Well done, Ningshuo Army.

You defeated me twice.

You really deserve the title God of War.

Even if you have defeated me, you might not rescue the Capital out of the trouble.

Generals should die in battles.

Great!

Great!

Lord Yuzhang, kill me.

Surrender, Lord Jianning.

Surrender?

Don't bother.

The Emperor and I are deadly enemies!

Lord Yuzhang!

Get a high-rank funeral for him.

Yes.

Move the camps.

Back to the capital immediately.

- Yes!

- Yes!

Wait.

What do you bring here?

Look.

They've sentenced to death already.

Yet the meal is much better than ours.

This jail is for princes and lords after all.

The food here is always like this.

What?

You're looking down upon us newcomers, right?

I dare not.

With them eating well, we can gain profit from it.

People in this jail are all royal family members.

They may come out of the jail someday.

If we don't treat them well, we will suffer by then.

It makes sense.

Open the door.

Prime Minister, you almost ate nothing these days.

Grab something to eat.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

(Princess) (Princess Consort Yuzhang) Prime Minister, I'm glad you're eating.

It's better to be alive and poor than rich and dead.

Song Huai'en, do you know your crime?

For what?

For stealing the Tiger Tally, issuing a false imperial edict.

and getting capital troops to the palace without approval.

With any of the three, you can be sentenced to death.

Tell me.

Where did you get them?

Is there someone helping you inside of the palace?

Does Lord Yuzhang know about this?

The longer you delay, the further you are driving His Majesty to his end.

His Majesty gave them to me personally.

Are you trying to say he's the traitor?

You!

I know it even if you don't confess.

You work for Lord Yuzhang.
