【ENG SUB | FULL】Eternal Brotherhood 1 EP14:Zichuan Xiu Knows the Truth | 紫川·光明三杰 | iQIYI
[English subtitles are available] [Eternal Brotherhood 1] [Episode 14] They didn’t do anything to you, did they? What could they do to me? Why did Lord Ge have your man beside him? That’s what I do. Not only Lord Ge, I have moles beside every big shot in the Imperial Capital. Although this is repugnant to the law, how can we avoid these when doing the monitoring and intelligence work? Both you and Luo Minghai contributed to the suppression of the rebellion. Lord Canxing can’t do anything but let Luo Minghai investigate. He’s insisting this is the solid evidence that you killed Lord Ge. Do you have any idea? My Lord, the time is up. Can you take responsibility if I can’t find out the truth? Can you? Si Yilin. Forget it. He’s just following orders. We’ll leave in half an hour. My men found something. If you really want to help me, find someone for me. Okay. We’ll go now. One more thing. Can you go to my house? I haven’t been back all night. Xiujia must be worried sick. I got some bonsai sent to our mansion and promised I’d plant them with her. But now it seems that I won’t be able to go back in a short time. Tell her I have something to do and I’ll go back later. Got it. Si Yilin. Xiu. Thank you. He’s been tortured? Yes, and he’s badly injured. We don’t have much time. We’d better hurry. I’ve found out Weiming may know the truth about Lord Ge’s death. In a straw hut in the northwest suburbs of Qunian Town, Dake Province. Use marching marks as the route sign. I’ll go find him. Okay, leave the rest to me. Don’t worry about Xiu. He’s fine. Later, I’ll go to the Jintai Hotel to see my sister-in-law. I’m leaving. I’m going to the Jintai Hotel to see my sister-in-law. I’ll go to see Xiujia myself. We’re both girls. It’s more convenient. You have no idea. Since you got hurt, Ka Dan has been worried about you. How can I let you, a princess, go… Get decisive, will you? Do you really want Ka Dan to keep worrying about you? Princess Ning, if you have something to do, you can go back. It’s tedious work to dig holes and plant seedlings. It’s usually Di Lin who would do this with me. Now he told me not to wait for him. He must have something more important to do. The flowers are a bit wilted. As long as they’re watered sufficiently and taken care of, they’ll come back to life. I believe Di Lin will be fine. The three of them will be safe. Freeze! Who are you? Who sent you here? Don’t! How are you? Careful. What happened? What happened? They gained the advantage, after all. Stop talking now. I’ll carry you back. Let’s talk later. It’ll be too late if I don’t say it now. How did Lord Ge die? Lei Hong or Yang Minghua? Neither. Lord Ge walked to his death voluntarily. No. Lord Ge’s last sentence that he wanted me to tell you is… “Zichuan is the most important.” If Zichuan Xiu comes to you in the future, you must tell him, “Zichuan is the most important.” “Zichuan is the most important.” I know Zichuan is the most important. What on earth happened? I know. Zichuan is the most important. Zichuan is the most important. I see. It’s him. It’s him! Rascal? Rascal! It must be him. He’s the only one who could make Lord Ge die without a choice. Xiu, why did you kneel the moment you arrived? If you have something to say, just say it. Get up and talk. What’s wrong? I’m here for Di Lin’s case. Now, Luo Minghai is in charge of Di Lin’s case. Lord Ge Shan is his assistant. Yes. They are both meritorious officials who contributed to the suppression of Yang Minghua’s rebellion. Di Lin killed all of Luo Minghai’s family. Luo Minghai won’t let Di Lin off easily this time. Xiu, when it comes to the court, we should all focus on the overall situation and Zichuan. In order to eliminate Lord Yang, Luo Minghai has been lurking beside him. He cast his life and safety aside for you. Now his whole family is dead under false accusations, so in order to be accountable to him, you want to punish Di Lin severely. I can understand that. You’re implying something. My Lord, you are wise. Luo Minghai and Di Lin are both meritorious officials. I believe you will protect both of them at the same time. Of course. They’re both meritorious officials. Both of them should be rewarded. An innocent person shouldn’t be wronged. Xiu, have some faith in the power of Zichuan’s law. I won’t let meritorious officials be wrongly accused. Of course, we still need to be more mature and perform our duties while in the post. You are right. I understand. So, please release Di Lin immediately and reward him according to his merits. Of course I would reward people according to their merits. And you are the first one to be rewarded. Because you’re not only meritorious but also my brother’s adopted son. Moreover, you’re a famous general in Yuanzhou, Ning’s lover, and Lord Ge Yingxing’s beloved disciple. You’re the future of Zichuan. My Lord, I dare not take credit. All I want is to go back to Yuanzhou and protect Zichuan. Why would you go back to Yuanzhou? I, Zichuan Xiu, only want to carry on the unfinished work of Lord Ge. Will it be good for your future if you stay in Yuanzhou all the time? What about Ning? I know. It’s hard for you to accept Lord Ge Yingxing’s death. We’re all the same. I won’t let the murderer go. I will send someone to kill Lei Hong. Lord Canxing, Lord Ge told me that Zichuan is the most important. You and Ge Yingxing have been fighting battles in Yuanzhou all year long. That’s what he always told you, right? This is the last thing Lord Ge said before he died. He told me… Zichuan is the most important. Those are Ge Yingxing’s last words? His personal guard, Weiming, was assassinated. I wanted to save him. Unfortunately, I couldn’t. You met Weiming? What else did he say to you? Do you also care about what he said, Lord Canxing? Of course. Because I attach great importance to Ge Yingxing’s last words. Unfortunately, he didn’t say anything else besides that. So why Lord Ge died will always be a secret. No. I must find out the truth. Otherwise, it’ll be a regret. Surely. Surely, we’ll find out. Besides Di Lin’s matter, I have another request. Please allow me to go back to Yuanzhou. Go back to Yuanzhou? Don’t you want Ning anymore? I’ve never deserved her. Wherever you want to go, the Ministry of War will assign you. Soldiers should obey orders. Of course. My Lord. Give out my order. Tell Luo Minghai the investigation on Di Lin ends here. Yes. Brother. This time, we eliminated the rebellious traitors and went through difficult times. Zichuan has finally attained its due peace. The construction of Zichuan relies on every one of you. Greetings, Lord Chieftain. The former deputy commander of the Royal Escorts, Si Yilin, will be in charge of the Palace Guards as a deputy. Thank you, Lord Chieftain. Luo Minghai will be the commander-in-chief of the Ministry of War of the Zichuan family. Greetings, Lord Chieftain. Di Lin will be the Minister of Military and Legal Affairs. Thank you, Lord Chieftain. There are many more meritorious officials. The awards list will be sent to all ministries. They will all be rewarded according to their merits. All the other people were promoted, but he was demoted. I haven’t had enough of the good life in the Imperial Capital. And yet we’re leaving again. I thought the Ministry of Government Supervision was already the bottom of Lord Xiuchuan’s life. I didn’t expect that we would have to go to Jiashan Fortress with him. Moreover, it’s a reserve service. We can raise money and find a connection for him. Do you have money? We need to find a box and pack everything we can. The box needs to be an extra-large one. My Lord, aren’t you going back to Ning’s Mansion to pack up? I still have a lot of work to hand over. There are also a lot of things that I need to deal with. I don’t have time to go back. See you. My Lady, I heard the reserve service at Jiashan Fortress is a government office that has no outside income, and work there is tedious and complicated. There’s no chance to get promoted from that position. I’ll ask Uncle for an explanation tomorrow. My Lady, maybe Lord Chieftain arranged this position for Lord Xiu especially. You have a point. Lord Ge, who guarded Yuanzhou, passed away. Many people from Yuanzhou at the border must be ready to make trouble. Then, the importance of the reserve service emerges at this time. Yes. But Lord Ge had just passed away, and Xiu was demoted, so he must be in a bad mood. Mei, ask the chef to prepare more of his favorite dishes tomorrow. My Lady. You’re so considerate towards Lord Xiu. But as soon as he got the commission, he left. He’s left? It seems that their mission this time is really urgent. Maybe the military expansion is coming. The work of the reserve service is about to start immediately. Maybe… Mei. Am I making excuses for him? No way. That must be it. This room has not been cleaned for hundreds of years, has it? Back in Yuanzhou, I thought we were down temporarily. I didn’t expect that we’d always be down with Lord Xiu. Hey, you guys. You can’t always think about getting out of the Imperial Capital. You must remember who took you to the Imperial Capital. In my opinion, this room is big and spacious. And I don’t have to see Ge Shan’s annoying face every day. So, you should all be grateful to me. Don’t stop. You’ve been cleaning for days. It’s too inefficient. What have you been doing these days? I… Besides cleaning this room, I still have the camp to clean. Enough talking with you. I have to go there now. Are you so busy that you don’t even have time to say hello to me? Ning, I’m really busy. First, I have to hold the funeral for Lord Ge. Second, I went on a long trip for Di Lin. Third, I had just finished those things, and I had to come to Jiashan Fortress immediately. I’m too busy. I’m here to take you back. Either you come back with me today, or you don’t ever come back. I can’t disobey Lord Canxing’s order. Don’t use my uncle as an excuse. An ordinary soldier has a visiting leave, not to mention the reserve service. I’ll count to three. One, two. Look, our place is dirty and messy. They don’t clean properly. What are you looking at? Hurry up and clean! Ning, I was wrong this time. I’m sorry. Three! Next time! I’ll definitely visit you next time! No one would believe you! If you come after me and apologize, I’ll forgive you. I’ll count to ten. My Lady, the carriage is at the door. Let’s get in the carriage. Okay? The wheels of the carriage seem loose. Check them. They are not loose. They are. Check them. I felt it on our way here. How is that possible? For your safety, I’ve checked many times. They are not loose. They are. Check them. Yes. Lin He, you must know who you are. The future of you and Ning… Zichuan is the most important. Zichuan is the most important. What are you doing? Can’t you see it’s dirty here? I was wiping it. I don’t understand. Why do you always refuse to tell Lady Ning your inner thoughts and feelings? If I said them out loud, would they still be “inner” thoughts? In Yuanzhou, how many people are there who rebelled like Lei Hong’s army? About a thousand. So, the rebels of 25 regiments are under control. My Lord, I think a solid dyke can be destroyed by an ant hole. I’m afraid now that the little trouble has arrived, a disaster will not be far. According to the scouts at the front, each tribe has started to act abnormally. What do you think? I think we should send the Yuanzhou Army to strengthen the defense and then deploy forces from the Palace Guards or Border Appeasement Army to go to Yuanzhou for backup. We need to defeat Lei Hong’s rebels in seven days with an overwhelming force. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable. Caution against creeping corruption is the only way to long-term peace. But this matter is still under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War. Write a proposal and hand it to the Ministry of War. Lei Hong rebelled in Yuanzhou. Di Lin went to see Lord Chieftain. And the generals at the border are asked to return to the court for discussion. Thank you for taking the trouble to come back. Lei Hong only has 25 regiments. Is it necessary to summon both of us back? You treated your superior’s casual marks as an order and made a big fuss about it. It’s not a small matter. Di Lin is still too young. Compared to the rebellion of Lei Hong, we should pay more attention to that of all the tribes in Yuanzhou. Lord Chieftain is newly in power. Building his prestige is more important. It’s just a rebellion of some petty bandits at the border. It’s nothing compared with the rebellion of Yang Minghua, which just ended, the 200,000 Liufeng Army at the city gate seven years ago, and the rebellion of the whole Border Appeasement Army fifty years ago. Maybe wanting to be prepared for danger in times of safety, he transferred all the troops to Yuanzhou. Yuanzhou is safe, but what about the Imperial Capital? He’s just a clown. A small village in Shaluo Province in Yuanzhou left Zichuan. It just declared independence. Right here. Not only did they leave the Family, but they also established a tribe alliance army. They said they wanted to protect their territory and people. A village with less than 100 people shouldn’t be a threat, right? Do you know how much impact these 100 people will have? Do you also think the rebellion in Yuanzhou is serious? Yes, very serious. Once Yuanzhou is in chaos, the price of the houses in this place will surely plunge. No. I need to check other places and see if I can find anywhere else to invest. This small village, with less than 100 people, announced independence. How big the impact could be? This small village was under Zichuan’s control for so many years and didn’t want to be independent before, but they suddenly announced independence. What does that mean? Someone must be behind this. Let me finish. Look. If these dots were connected, it would be a disaster. I must take this opportunity to stop the loss, sell the estates, and buy some estates elsewhere. Since you have money to buy estates here, then the money you owe us… Luckily, I didn’t buy any. Otherwise, I’d lose too much. Orcs, the Snake Race, and the Elves. The Orcs are the strongest among them. They are large in numbers and easily manipulated. Once they rebel, it’ll be the biggest trouble. Did Xiu tell you all this? Yes. Xiu has been in Yuanzhou for seven years. He knows a lot about these tribes. But he said he was afraid that his house would fall in value. In fact, he kept reminding us where the real danger was. Big Brother, I don’t know if I should say this. If you have time, can you talk to Xiu? You see, it’s mainly because my Palace Guards have to train every day. It’s tiring to pass messages for you two. We are not kids bickering. We’re all grown up now. It’s just that we have different things to face. But Xiu knows you won’t hurt us. -He’s just…
-I know. Give him some time. He’ll figure it out. But you should be prepared in advance. Yes. I must be the one to fix the problem in Yuanzhou. Before that, pass one more message for me. After all, I’m under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, so my position is kind of awkward. So it’s very likely that the Ministry of War orders Lin Bing and Luo Bo to give up chasing Lei Hong and to suppress the rebellions of the Orcs and the Snake Race instead? Yes. You mean you want me to write to them in a private capacity and let them prepare in advance? Yes. The most awkward person should be… Di Lin. I’m not going to pass the message, okay? You two do it. What are you doing? You two know clearly it’s the other person who said it, but you pretend you don’t know. You two make me like a fool, passing the message between you. You two can do it yourselves. Second Brother. Alright, I’ll write the letter. But it’s not because I listen to him. I’m doing it for Lin Bing and Luo Bo. You just never say uncle. I’ll write it. How is it? Three days ago, Xiu sent this express letter. He said the Ministry of War would order us to stop chasing Lei Hong and go to suppress the rebellions of the tribes in Yuanzhou. This is the newly arrived document of the Ministry of War. Any surprise? Quanrong Province is just ahead. Lei Hong is hiding right there. The Ministry of War asked us to stop chasing and turn back. But this time, thanks to Xiu, we had time to transfer our troops gradually. I didn’t give him the good wine in vain. If we turn back now, our entire back will be exposed to Lei Hong. Although the rebellions of the Yuanzhou tribes seemed small-scale, it was not a coincidence that they rebelled at the same time as Lei Hong. My Lord, Luo Bo and Lin Bing have withdrawn. Those people in the Ministry of War indeed crave greatness and success. Seeing the rebellions in Yuanzhou, they rushed forward, like when bears smell honey. Thanks to your intelligence. You encouraged the Orcs, like the Snake Race, to revolt. Although it’s just a little bit of help, it can solve our current problem. I don’t think so. However, I’ll make this little stroke to make bigger success. Since I can’t be a general of Zichuan, I can only be the king of Yuanzhou. The traitor Lei Hong has joined forces with the rebels in Yuanzhou. Their forces are beyond expectation. Lin Bing and Deputy Commander Luo Bo went to the Chishuitan to suppress the rebels. Unexpectedly, they were attacked by Lei Hong from behind. They suffered a crushing defeat in the end. The Yuanzhou Army lost 85,000 soldiers, including 33 Captains and 76 Lieutenants. The Deputy Commander Luo Bo is seriously injured. Now, he has led the remaining army to retreat to Wayun Fortress. This is a blood letter from the two lords. Please have a look. Since the establishment of the Yuanzhou Army, they had never suffered such a great defeat even if they were against the most elite army of the North Clan. Twenty-one of the twenty-three provinces in Yuanzhou have been occupied. Lord Chieftain. Wayun is an important barrier between the Imperial Capital and Yuanzhou. Our priority now is to hold Wayun. I failed to judge the situation in Yuanzhou correctly. I didn’t do my job well. Please punish me. Get up. Get up. Thank you, My Lord. Our priority is to solve the crisis in Wayun Fortress and Yuanzhou. What do you think? We should send reinforcements as soon as possible. However, Wayun is in dire danger. Plus, the number of rebels is huge. There must be a lot of reinforcements. However, the Border Appeasement Army and the Black Banner Army don’t have enough people to be deployed after the defense is guaranteed. Di Lin, do you have any idea? I don’t think everyone here would like my suggestion. Just go ahead. My Lord, at this point, we can only negotiate with Lei Hong. He started all the rebellions of all the tribes in Yuanzhou. As long as Zichuan makes some compromises, our loss won’t be too big. Di Lin. Don’t think because you predicted some things before, you’ll understand everything. My Lord, Lei Hong is a rebel who’s on Yang Minghua’s side and the murderer who killed Lord Ge. You want to negotiate with him? What’s your agenda? I have no other ideas, then. You… Alright, stop arguing. Everyone, talk about your opinions. My Lord, we can’t let the rebels enter Wayun. The Imperial Capital will be in danger if Wayun falls. The Border Appeasement Army requests to be sent to war. I request that I return immediately and assemble the Black Banner Army. We will protect Wayun to the death! Lord Chieftain. The two generals are still on the duty of defense. The Palace Guards have already assembled. I’m willing to lead 150,000 Palace Guards to Wayun Fortress. Approved. Si Yilin, lead the Palace Guards to reinforce the Wayun Fortress first. Yes. Fortunately, the northwest and the southwest borders are safe for now. Ming Hui. Yes. After the defense is arranged, you lead the Border Appeasement Army to assist them. Yes. Fang Jing. Yes. When the southwest is safe, you lead the Black Banner Army to Yuanzhou. Protect the Moon Bay at the border between Yuanzhou and the North Clan to prevent the North Clan from taking any mean actions there. Yes. Lord Luo. Yes. Announce to the public immediately that the Family is in a state of emergency and that all officers of the reserve service return to active service. Yes. Everyone, the war is about to begin. At this moment, I want to compose a poem. Why do you have to do that? The Family has issued the order to assemble the reserve service. Captain Luo Jie. Yes! Captain Baichuan. Yes. Captain Ming Yu. Yes. Set out and issue the assembly order. Yes. Actually, I want to tell you I’m going to war in Yuanzhou tomorrow. But not with the North Clan. It’s our family’s internal strife. I might not be able to come back. It’s not that. I will come back. I will. I just don’t want you to worry. So I’m here today because I want to see you again before I leave. That’s all. By the way, recently, the temperatures between day and night have fluctuated violently in the Imperial Capital. Wrap up warm. Don’t catch a cold. I found a chef from the North Clan. If you want to eat something, just tell him. He will cook for you. By the way, we may have to push back the thing that you go back to the North. It’s been chaotic in Yuanzhou recently. But don’t worry. I will send you back. If you need anything, you can tell Xiu. He can help you, too. I’m done talking. Mr. Si. The battlefield is dangerous. Please do take care. Actually, I’m not in a hurry to go back. What did you bring? Nothing. What are you holding? A box. I’m asking you what’s in the box. It’s… forget-me-not.
