Ever Victorious (2023) Movie Script
1
The vast land of Central Plains
Tan and Yue have been at war for years
People are living in misery
Tan was weak and offered to negotiate peace
Exchanging the crown prince as
a hostage for ten years of peace
But the ten-year promise is coming
Yue State is getting ready to make a move
And want to annex Tan State at one stroke
I'm Dong-li Please.
Gainie Please
Too slow
Sword should be fast
Like light, like shadow, like wind
Light is invisible
But it can instantly connect the heaven
and earth, making people unaware
There is a trace of existence,
but it seems to be absent
However, the true swordsmanship
lies not in the movements
Everything can be done from the heart
Change nothing into something
Dad, what is kendo?
Regard the world as the heart and
regard swordsmanship as the way
The world is so big
It's not just about one move or gesture
broken.
The Chengying Sword is passed on to you
Dad meant
To practice swordsmanship, one
must cultivate one's morality first
The sense of nobility in being generous
You've become a master of the sword
You should help the world.
How to help the world
Now Yue is watching
You're a citizen of the Tan country
Your sword
shall carry the burden of duty
for the people of the Land of Tan
Remember it
Everything comes from the heart
The great righteousness lies in the choice
Madam
Dongli has grown up
If you could see
How nice it would be
I know you've been worried about him
Which way to go
It's up to him
Come on.
Your Majesty
I'm late
It's not late.
General Fei Ke
You're just in time
Dear ministers,
Do you have anything else?
I have a report to make
What's the matter, General Fei Ke?
I request more troops to Xixiakou
Send troops to attack Tan
It's only a matter of time before
we unify the Central Plains.
I, Fei Ke, would like to lead an expedition
to Tan.
My Lord,
The appointment with the
Prince of Tan has arrived.
Now in Xixiakou
It is undoubtedly a direct
declaration of war against Tan
I think
Not possible
And now there is a
severe drought in the north
Please show mercy to
the people, Your Majesty
General Zuo Feng
Your father and I
fought for the late Emperor,
and it took years
to create the present state of Yue.
It was the late Emperor's
wish to unite the Central Plains
so I'm now opening up new territories to
Establish a remarkable
foundation for the king
Why not?
The late emperor's last wish
I think it's because General Fei Ke
wants to avenge the loss of Xixiakou
Great King
Tan is a small country
which does not know how to be generous.
Repeated provocations
I think it's time to send troops
Let Tan Kingdom know
who is the dominant
power in the Central Plains
I know your mind, General
But I'm tired today
Go back to the court
I humbly submit
Approved
Kill Zuo Feng
Fei Ke
You're too cruel
General.
Someone come
Yes
Drag Zuo Feng out of the hall
take off his official clothes
Chop it off.
Let me go
I'll walk by myself
The wolf's wild ambition.
The wolf's wild ambition
Help me!
Help me!
Help me
Help me
Pull hard
Come on, quickly
Are you alright?
Hurry up.
Harder
Are you alright?
Why did you fall in here?
It's okay. It's okay.
Come on, help him up
Slow down
Village head
The pendant of the State of Yue
You are from the State of Yue
And a knife wound.
How did the injury happen?
You are a soldier of the State of Yue
I'm not
Then why do you have a knife wound?
How did you get in?
I was chased by robbers
I accidentally came here
Stagnant pool
How did you get into there by mistake
Yes, it is
Yes, it is.
Say, how did you get in?
Yeah, say it
How did you get in?
Say it
Gabe
I just saved a man of
Yue from the stagnant pool
Village head
Give him to the government
Yes, send him to the government
The Yue Kingdom is too aggressive
That's it.
Our Prince is still being
held captive by them
Send him to the government
Send him to the government
Will they kill him?
Everyone in Yue should be killed
Yes, it is.
The people of Yue deserve to be killed.
They should all be killed
Mr. Gai won't come
Please let the village head decide
Yes, village head
Say something
Yes, village head
Village head, say something
Village head, what should we do?
Please give me some idea
Send him to the government
Don't let him go, village head
That's it.
After all, it's a human life.
Look at his appearance
And it's not like a spy
Why is he not a spy
Yes, indeed.
He's a spy
How do you know he's not a spy?
All right.
He's a spy
Release the person
Village chief
We can't let him go
Village head, we can't let him escape
Okay, let him go
Village head
Village head
Village head
We can't let him go
Please think it over
Think carefully
We can't let him go
Yao Village is located at the junction
of the State of Tan and the State of Yue
The terrain outside the village is complex,
with swamps and muddy puddles everywhere
It is called the Dead Water Pool
If you don't know the way
Everyone can hardly move
Walk a hundred steps west and turn east
Xunfeng reversed Qian has a head
Left is dead, right is alive
Keep the righteous path in mind
Hurry up.
Hurry up
That's it.
Take two more steps forward
Yes, that's right.
Okay, stop, stop, stop.
Take off his blindfold
Here.
Here's the rations.
For your journey.
After the danger zone
keep going straight
and you'll reach the Yue border.
Thank you all
A great favour is not to be thanked
Someday
I will repay you in kind.
Come on, let's go
It's late. Hurry up and go
Let's go.
Hurry back
Let's go.
Let's go.
Your Majesty
Ten years have passed
Yue has no intention of
returning the Crown Prince
At the same time
Fei Ke sets up heavy forces in Xixiakou
Extremely frequent movements
This is a provocation.
Your Majesty
We need to discuss the rescue
of the Prince as soon as possible
I would like to lead the
army to fight against Yue
Save the Prince
General Yu Wu
What do you think?
Your Majesty
I think it's not feasible
Why not?
Keeping a thousand
soldiers for a day is useless
We, the Tan Kingdom, have
been saving our energy for ten years
so that we can one day
defeat the Yue Kingdom
defeat the Yue Kingdom
and wipe out our past shame
General, you're not
scared because you're old
are you?
Dr. You
For so many years
Yue has been eyeing Tan
The Crown Prince hasn't returned yet
If we rush in, it's hard to tell
whether we will win or lose
In the end, it's the people
of the country who suffer
So it's better to take a
long-term view on this matter
Dr. Li
Why do you need to be
more powerful than others
The two countries have
been at odds for many years
There will be a battle
Although the State of Yue is strong
as long as the Crown Prince does not return
, the Tan State will
be restricted by others.
General Yu Wu
Are you still in shock after the
assassination a few days ago
You must be scared
The assassin has been
repelled by the Iron Eagle Guard
Thank you for your concern, Dr. You
Thank you, but it's not necessary
But do you know
Because of this matter
Yue may have broken through
the Yao Village natural barrier
Bring the person up
Dr. You
Who is this?
Why are you so badly hurt
Your Majesty
This person is one of the people
who were sent by the Yue Kingdom to
assassinate General Yu Wu a few days ago,
and was captured at the Yue border.
The other one fled to Yao Village
The rural folkway of
Yaoyao is simple and honest
very easily deceived
I estimate,
that they have already passed
the stagnant pool by now.
General Yu Wu
Do you know about this?
I made a mistake
I deserve death.
Your Majesty
General Yu Wu is responsible for
negotiating the fortress of the border.
The assassin has nothing
to do with the general
We should focus on the
matter of Yaocun at present
Keep the secret of Yaocun Village
We should plan carefully for
the matter of the crown prince
My king
General Yu Wu is the pillar of the country
He has exhausted his heart and
soul for the country and people.
This time, he was indeed careless.
I humbly request that you, my king,
allow General Yu Wu to find a
way to make up for his mistake.
Give approval
Kill him
Only the dead can keep secrets forever.
That's absolutely impossible
Your Majesty
I know my crime
General, please get up
Thank you, Your Majesty.
General Yu Wu
I want to ask you something personal today
and I want you to answer
them directly and quickly.
I am all ears.
After I pass away,
how will the descendants judge
my accomplishments and mistakes?
The Great King upholds the mandate
of heaven and cares for the people
lenient and loving
You can be said as a wise king
For several years
The people and I have suffered a lot
Will they resent me?
Your Majesty
You were considerate of the people
Protect them from the suffering of war
The people love and revere you,
how could they possibly resent the king?
What about the Crown
Prince? Will he resent me?
Your Majesty
The Crown Prince is chosen by heaven.
Even among the great emperors of history,
there were those who were taken hostage.
When he ascends the throne in the future,
he will understand the
difficulties faced by the king.
It's been so many years.
I'm just afraid that
father and son will meet
I won't recognize him either.
I am old.
This heart is old too.
Recently, I've been
dreaming of the Crown Prince.
Yu Wu.
I'm worried that we have no one left.
Veteran Official
I, the veteran official, will definitely
bring the Crown Prince back to the capital.
Greetings to the General Fei Ke
You returned alone from
the mission with nine people.
I am incompetent.
Then how dare you return?
I humbly return,
bearing important news to report.
I have a way.
Pierce the secret of the stagnant pool
Please, Your Honor, give me a
chance to make up for my mistakes.
I will discover the secret
of the Stagnant Pool.
To aid General Fei Ke in
conquering the state of Tan.
Zhong
Ten Days
I will complete my task.
I will fulfill the General's expectations.
Come on out.
General.
Go and run an errand for me.
You and I have known each other for years.
How could I not know what's on your mind?
Today in the courtroom
Dr. You is really arrogant.
I was careless.
I've made a big mistake.
The slaughter of the village is a dilemma.
When I sent the Crown Prince to Yue.
I made up my mind to
bring back the Crown Prince.
General
This is the end of the line.
We have to make a choice
for the sake of our country.
Good move.
This is the game of the Grand Triple Crown.
That's the way it is now.
Wonderful.
I'm just waiting for you to break the game.
Back.
I'm back. I'm back.
It's been a good day.
Not bad.
Zhang Dazui
You're going fishing again.
That's right.
This firewood is good.
This firewood will make a good dish.
I'll cut some more.
Okay, okay, okay. You're busy. You're busy.
I'll leave you to it.
Okay. - Okay.
Slow down.
They're busy.
Zhang is back.
Zhang
Hard work. Hard work.
Fatty, have you eaten?
Brother, you're back.
I'm busy.
Okay, okay, okay. You're busy.
Brother Li, you haven't eaten yet.
No, I haven't.
Wait for me.
Mother.
Wait for me.
Mother, I'm hungry.
I'm hungry.
Come on, it's almost time to eat.
More.
Great White Goose
Look.
Kill.
Mother. Mother.
Come on, run!
Hold it!
Little Six.
No
That way.

You're awake.
Tell me about it.
Who is it?
Who did it?
Letters
Chuni
Brother Dongli
Slaughter. Clothes of the man
who slaughtered the village.
Revenge
Take a look.
New fabric arrivals
Take a look.
Your fabric looks good.
Yes, it does.
This is our newest arrival.
Here, feel this.
So, if this is a dress.
I think it's this year's fashionable style.
Yes, it is.
Not only making clothes
like bedding, Sheets, Pillowcases
Anything is fine.
Like to take some
Boss.
It feels good to the touch.
Have you seen this fabric?
Let's see.
No, no, no.
Boss.
Have you seen this fabric?
No, I haven't.
Have you seen this fabric?
My guest.
This fabric is not for the common man.
This is from the Imperial Court.
Give it to me.
Come on. Again.
Who is it?
Who is it?
Cover up.
There are assassins.
Protect the general.
Finally.
Fresh and soft osmanthus cake
The guards of the General's
residence are the Iron Eagle Guards.
There are all kinds of them.
Here, take your pick.
Excuse me.
Do you know where the
Iron Eagle Guard camp is?
I heard it's north of Gyeongin Palace.
The assassin who entered
General Yu-mu's palace last night.
Not found.
Guess he's acting alone.
Motive unknown.
I'll give you two days.
In two days.
Make sure you find the assassin.
Yes, sir.
Who are you?
Yao Village, Gai Dongli.
Dozens of lives have been
lost in the village of Yao.
Is this what you and your
comrades have done?
Come on, come on, come on.
The Iron Eagle Guards are
dedicated to their country.
Duty Bound
It's not your business.
Murdering innocents in
the name of national justice.
How can you be loyal?
You don't kill each other.
The Iron Eagle Guards will
kill you at the end of the earth.
You're not good enough to kill my father.
Who else is there?
Yu Wu
Be careful.
My lord, help me.
Hundred paces west, turn east.
Sundowner reverses and Qian has a head
The left side is dead.
The right side is alive.
Remember the right way of the Big Dipper.
Go forward one by one.
No matter what.
I will find out the secret of
this stagnant pond today.
I want to solve it.
Disobeying orders will be executed.
Quickly.
Who's in the way?
Yu Wu
Protect the Lord.
Sword of Shadow
Has anyone ever told you that
Where this sword came from.
I'll ask you.
You're the one who ordered the
killings of the villagers in Yao Village.
It was me.
Die.
If you want to kill General
Yu Wu, kill me first.
Not bad. Just like his father.
Guidie
Don't hurt Dongli.
You know me.
I'm with your father.
We were brothers who
killed the enemy together.
Joke, brother.
You killed your brother.
Young Hero Gai.
He died by his own sword.
What are you talking about?
Young Hero Gai.
My name is Nanmen Xing,
Captain of the Iron Eagle Guard.
Iron Eagle Guard
Why did you kill the unarmed
people of Yao Village?
Young Hero Gai.
General Yu Wu asked
me to deliver a letter to you.
Go back and tell your lord.
This is my choice.
Letter
Young Hero Gai's Righteousness
Everything from the Heart
Righteousness lies in the choice between
Loyalty to the country,
success to the world.
It sacrifices one village in Yao
to save countless other villages in Tan.
Young Hero Gai.
It was indeed the General
who ordered the massacre.
But the General had no choice.
I'll believe you for now,
but I will investigate the truth,
and then decide whether to take your life.
General.
There is no trace of the
people from Yao Village.
Keep searching.
Yes, let's go.
Yu Wu.
Why do we have to kill everyone?
Young Young Hero Gai.
What does this mean?
Young Hero Gai.
What's going on?
Don't you know what's going on?
You sent your men to hunt me down.
It seems like you also have
a different face for show.
You have a different face
behind closed doors too.
Why do you say that, young warrior?
Young Hero Gai.
This matter has nothing to
do with the Iron Eagle Guard
There must be someone else.
If it's not the Yue in disguise.
It must be the work of
those spies in the court.
Their purpose is not to kill you,
but to capture you.
Why would they want to capture me?
If they are from the court,
then they want to capture you.
To hold General Yu Wu accountable
for his failure in handling the matter.
If they are from the Yue people,
then they want to use you to
break through the natural barriers.
What danger?
The Stagnant Pool at Yaochun
Young sir, you may not be aware of this,
The stagnant pool is
a sure-fire way to kill.
Over the years
The Yue people are attempting to
break through the Deadwater Pool,
but now the secret of the Deadwater Pool
has been discovered by the Yue people
Only by making Yao Village disappear,
can Tan Country be relieved of its worries.
For many years,
the Yue people have not dared
to launch large-scale invasions,
all because of General Yu Wu
For many years,
they have been hoping
for General Yu Wu to fall,
So that they can take advantage of
the chaos and wipe out our country.
Assassins! Protect the General!
Quickly.
Fast
Lord Chang.
We'll cover you. You go first.
Take it down for me.
General.
Young Hero Gai
What's going on?
The young warrior is
being rounded up at the inn.
General
Young Hero Gai
Things have come to a head
There's something I just can't stop saying.
In recent years
The Yue people have repeatedly
reinforced their troops at the border,
The Yue people have repeatedly
reinforced their troops at the border,
Originally, we wanted to use
this place to surprise them,
Insertion into the heart of Vietnam.
And insert into the Yue people's heartland,
But unexpectedly,
This place was discovered by the Yue
If the stagnant pool is
not used by our army first.
The country is in danger.
I have no choice.
We can only take this underhanded approach.
Did the villagers deserve to die?
You're officials.
You can't protect the innocent.
You need the people to protect you.
You're right.
However, Tan Country has
always been weak and small.
Cowardice in the court.
Dissenters are all over the court
There are a few who are
secretly in league with the enemy.
At present, if there is even one
survivor from the Yao Village,
The Secret of the Stagnant Pool
I'm afraid it will be impossible to hide
You can't keep a secret.
And the villagers will have to pay for it.
My death is not enough
to thank him for his crimes.
I am not a man who fears death.
If it comes to my life,
you can take it anytime you wish.
There is only one thing
that I have not yet completed.
If this matter is not resolved,
the blood of the Yao Village's
villagers will have been shed in vain.
What matter?
Rescue the Prince
All These Years
Although there is a truce
agreement between Tan and Yue,
Yue once demanded that
Now that the Crown
Prince's term has expired,
Yue has been delaying the
return of the Crown Prince.
But Yue refuses to return him
I'm not going to Yue.
Father. Father.
Young Hero Gai.
If we don't get the Crown
Prince back before the war.
There may be no other
opportunity in the future.
Lady Gui Die requests that you consider the
greater good and forget personal grievances.
Set aside your family's grievances.
How to Save Each Other
Dead Pool
Since things have come to this,
I'll be frank.
I would like to ask for your help
in rescuing the Crown Prince.
After the deed is done
I will give you my head.
I'd like to apologise to the
spirits of the villagers of Yauchon.
General
if you do this, then Tan Country
Gui Die, you remember this.
It is the unity of the
soldiers that brings victory.
It is the entire country's people.
It is the thousands upon
thousands of Yao Villages.
How can it be called only thanks to me
I'll never go back on my word.
What did you write in
your letters to my father?
I told Brother Guy of
the situation at hand.
It was a choice made
by Brother Guy himself.
The Young Hero Gai is a
hero of the Tan Kingdom.
Let me think for three days.
Three days later Reply
I have a bamboo house
in the western suburbs
You can take Young Young
Hero Gai to stay there and recover.
Take care of him.
Yes
Gold Sore Medicine
It is the unity of the soldiers.
It is the unity of the
officers and soldiers.
It is the support of the
entire country's people.
It is the support of the thousands
upon thousands of Yao Villages.
Young Hero Gai is the
hero of the Tan Kingdom.
We agreed on three days.
This is the first day.
Young Hero Gai.
Do you know how to kill a fish, General Wu?
If someone kills your father.
Will you spare him?
Actually.
General Yu Wu is not my real father.
I grew up without parents.
It was General Yu Wu who saved me.
He brought me home.
Raise Me Up
I was originally from Yue
My parents were deserters from the Yue.
The war reached my hometown.
Don't run.
They're running away with me.
The Yue found us.
Both executed.
Master of the Army
Leave us alone.
Leave us alone.
It's General Yuwu passing through.
Save my life.
Pursue
Stop
In the midst of war, the
people suffer the most.
A little child. What's wrong with that?
You're a Yue. You're the enemy.
Enemy. We're not playing with you.
Let's go.
Hold it.
Gui Die is your sister.
If anyone tries to bully her again.
I won't spare her.
There's more.
Only on the battlefield do we
distinguish between friend and foe.
You're family.
Father, I want to learn the sword.
What's a girl doing with a sword?
To protect you.
Good boy.
Gui Die
Dad
Father has something for you.
What is it?
It's beautiful.
Thank you, Daddy.
Over the years
I've only tried to repay General
Yu Wu for saving my life.
You want to avenge your father's death.
I'm aware of that.
However, this way,
it will only play into the enemy's hands and
further their divide-and-conquer strategy.
Gui Die requests to die
in place of the General.
I've said it.
Three Days
You may leave.
Father? What is Kendo?
The Way of the Sword
with the world in mind.
What is my way of the sword?
The True Way of the Sword
lies not in the moves and techniques.
Everything comes from the heart.
Turning inaction into action
The Man Who Slaughtered the Village
Now Yue is watching
You're a citizen of the Tan country
Your sword shall carry the burden of
duty for the people of the Land of Tan
You're not good enough to kill my father.
Who else is there?
Yu Wu
The Shadow Sword will be passed on to you.
All things come from the heart.
Righteousness is a matter of choice.
Inside is the Young Hero Gai.
Who is it?
The man who avenged the
death of the great Young Hero Gai.
I have a few words for you.
I'll leave as soon as I'm finished.
Do you know who slaughtered the village?
Yes, sir.
Do you know who killed
the Young Hero Gainer?
It is known.
What is your business here in the capital?
Revenge
Dare to ask the young warrior
Can't you kill him with your sword?
If you hesitate.
I can help you kill them.
Just one thing.
What
Dead Pool Map
The Yue
I dare ask the young sir,
if the two countries go to war,
can Tan Country defeat Yue?
It's not about me.
I seek only revenge.
Tan is a small and weak nation
The Suffering of the People
Attacking Vietnam with
the whole country's army
I'm afraid there will be no one left
With My Map
Then you will be avenged
for killing your father.
And the people of the kingdom
will be spared the fire of war.
A man who knows what's good for him
is a man who knows what's good for him.
If you can help General
Feiqi, you will be the best.
Thousands of people have been spared.
That's a blessing for the people.
If I do.
The blood of the people of Yao
Village will have been spilt in vain.
Stagnant Pool
Fei Ke general is determined to win.
I respect the young warrior.
I have a good word for you.
To lead you to the right path.
And you won't budge.
You'll die with your stupidity.
I respect your courage.
Let's go.
I've heard that an assassin
has killed the General.
Are you all right, General?
I'm fine.
The Great King
I've heard that this man comes
from an unusual background.
Who is he?
I dare not speak
General Yuwu said, please
A man from the village of Yao
There's still a remnant in Yao Village.
The Great King
This man must be an old
acquaintance of the General.
That's why I let him escape.
The Great King
This is really sudden.
Before the young warrior appeared,
you don't know what to expect.
My lord.
This man escaped under
the general's command.
The general cannot escape blame
Must Know
If this man falls into the hands of the Yue
The consequences will be unimaginable.
Besides
If the matter of Yaocun is exposed
What will the world say about the court?
I humbly request that Your
Majesty punish Yu wu for his crimes.
And send the Iron Eagle
Guards to arrest the boy.
Your Majesty.
Condemn Yu Wu for a crime
The Young Shall Not Be Killed
The Rescue of the Crown Prince
This man is the key
With this man, all
things will come to pass.
Who is that boy?
He's got the skills.
Son of Gai Nie
Will he help me rescue the Prince?
Guarantee of the Yuwu head
It's 90% likely to succeed
General.
Chang Nansheng failed in his mission.
Misconduct of the Nation
The whole family has been decapitated.
General
That day I went to persuade Gai Dongli
But he wouldn't budge.
Right now
I've heard that Yuwu will
be making a move as well.
Can you spy on the news of Yu Wu?
Not yet.
No more waiting.
Seven days later
Send troops to Tan State
Yes
Dad.
I see the three days are up.
I don't know what kind of
choice Young Hero Gai'll make.
I can understand his choice.
Gui Die
If Gai agree to save the Prince.
We must protect him during the operation.
If he doesn't go
You must not make things difficult for him.
No matter what the situation
We must protect his life.
Father.
I don't want you to promise
to save the Crown Prince.
If he does save the Crown Prince
Then your life
Remember that.
Since I promised him
I will never break my promise.
It's also my account
to the villagers of Yaocun and Gai Nie
In front of our country
we can sacrifice the
lives of the entire village
I, Yu Wu, don't care about my life.
As long as the country can be preserved
The people are free from the war
Let me Yu Wu die alone
Not enough to worry about.
Young Hero Gai
I will help you rescue the Prince.
But there is one thing you must promise me.
Speak.
The man who slaughtered
the village that day was with me
OK
This operation is dangerous.
You're the only one who knows
the way to the stagnant pool.
After we leave.
Everyone is under your command.
Dad.
I would like to go with the Young Hero Gai
You're just a woman.
How can this be?
I'm the best man for the job right now.
Please, Father.
All right.
This is the King's chambers.
This is where the Prince is kept
Where is the barracks?
Here
The King of Yue's Bedchamber is close by
Distance from the barracks
to the Prince's quarters
Half an incense stick.
Where is the palace of the Prince of Yue?
Here
How long does it take to
get from the barracks to here
It'll take half an hour.
OK
Dad
This is the last time
daughter bring you medicine
Take care of yourself.
Dad.
You are closer than my real father
I thank you for your
many years of parenting.
Good boy. Good boy.
General.
Yu Wu'll make a move
Gai Dongli will cross the border from the
Dead Water Pool to rescue the Crown Prince.
OK
Then let's make sure he doesn't come back.
Prepare for war.
Yes
If you want to live, watch your step.
Follow me. Don't make a mistake.
Follow
OK
Slow down. Be careful.
Watch your step.
Stay close.
If you make a move, you can't reverse it.
Sometimes make concessions
in order to gain advantages
In this way, a dead move can come to life.
Su Dafu.
If all the chess pieces
could be like this chessboard
Twenty years have
passed in the blink of an eye.
It's hard to predict.
I can't fight alongside them.
It's really a shame.
Talking about the safety of the country
It's all in the balance.
At a critical moment
Master Gai Nye remains
steadfast in upholding righteousness
Now that such outstanding young
heroes have been cultivated for the country
Once we rescue the Crown Prince
The General can rest assured.
Strange. No one is guarding it.
How should we proceed?
You and Southgate Star
Take 30 elite soldiers to
rescue the Crown Prince.
Remember
Wait until the defenders are gone.
How do we know the defenders are gone?
You'll know when it's time.
What about you?
Ten dead soldiers and me.
Rescuing the Crown Prince
We'll wait here.
If I don't return in an hour.
You can go first.
This is the route map
Take care.
Nan Mengxing
Protect the Gui Die
Do as I say.
OK
Go
Let's go.
When it's done, it's done.
The army he led.
For the dead of the Iron Eagle Guard who
took part in the massacre at Yao Village.
I believe
Do what you're told and
wait for the right moment.
All of you, take cover.
Crouch down.
Assassins! Protect the Prince!
Prince! Assassin!
Go, go, go!
General. General.
The Prince has been robbed.
The Crown Prince of the Tan Kingdom
Our Prince
Abomination.
I can't believe you got away with this.
Rescue the Prince!
We mustn't spare a single Tan's man
Got it.
Quickly.
General's orders.
Rescue the Crown Prince!
Hurry!
This way.
Really retreated.
We attack!
We must keep our composure.
Wait a little longer.
Up.
Go
Don't come any closer.
Don't come any closer.
Prince
Please forgive us for our delay.
You've come to save me.
Yes, sir.
Let's get out of here.
Let's go!
Leave it to me.
Go.
Let's go.
Go!
You think if you've taken my Prince,
then you can defend the country Tan?
You think what you're doing is just.
But
What you're doing now
Can't stop the war.
I urge you to give up.
I admire you.
You can join me and serve under Fei Ke
Help him to complete the unification of
the Central Plains as soon as possible
You and I can rise to the top together
How about it?
Failure to keep covenant, treachery.
Scorned by the world.
The two countries are
at war with each other
It's because of people like you
Though the country is small
But we're all in this together.
The blood of the people of Yao
Village will not be shed in vain.
With your Shadow Sword.
You're already dead.
It's not too late to give up.
Your sword should bear the
weight of the people of Tan.
Take the sky as your heart
and see it as your sword path.
However, the true path of the sword
lies not in the moves and techniques.
Everything can be done from the heart.
A great success is like a deficiency, and
a great success is like an impossibility.
Turning motion into stillness
Turning nothing into something
I don't give up.
As long as I'm standing here.
You'll never get away with this.
Break.
Break

Bad news
The Prince has been taken by the Talons.
Which Prince?
Our Prince
Your Majesty
I am willing to lead the army
to retake the Crown Prince.
How can there be any troops to talk about?
Peace talks, peace talks.
Hurry up with the peace talks
Your Majesty
The two sides sign a truce agreement
Yue offers ten cities in
exchange for the Crown Prince.
Good work, General.
Good. Good.
Well done.
Call Gai Dongli to the palace.
Greetings to the King
Rise to the occasion
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Gai Dongli
You've done a great job.
I wish to reward you.
What do you desire? Speak freely.
I humbly report to the king.
I have no desires.
I wish for a generous burial
for the people of Yao Village.
In that case
Please honour my father's name.
The villagers of Yao sacrificed
their lives for their country.
That's only right.
Your father has a deep
understanding of righteousness.
Hero of the Nation
He will be buried with the
honours of a national hero.
Is there any more?
If the king wants a reward.
Please reward the soldiers.
And the families of the Iron Eagle
Guards who died in this battle.
And yourself?
Dongli wants for nothing.
When it's time to go.
The sword is in the heart,
and the heart is for the world.
That's what a swordmaster is.
The successor of Cheng
Ying sword has arrived.
I will not go back on my word.
General.
So much for the Talking Heads.
And to you, too.
I beg your forgiveness, Young Hero Gai.
General.
There is no choice in national war.
There needs to be a winner and a loser.
Family Feud has options
You can seek revenge or not.
Besides, the disaster of Yao Village
The fault does not lie with you.
I have already let go of the grievances.
Let's part ways here.
Your father.
Did he ever tell you about this sword?
Take care, Gai.
In the future, if you need me.
I will be there.
If you need anything in the future.
I will be there.
Don't you want to know?
What's in the letter?
Is it still important?
The vast land of Central Plains
Tan and Yue have been at war for years
People are living in misery
Tan was weak and offered to negotiate peace
Exchanging the crown prince as
a hostage for ten years of peace
But the ten-year promise is coming
Yue State is getting ready to make a move
And want to annex Tan State at one stroke
I'm Dong-li Please.
Gainie Please
Too slow
Sword should be fast
Like light, like shadow, like wind
Light is invisible
But it can instantly connect the heaven
and earth, making people unaware
There is a trace of existence,
but it seems to be absent
However, the true swordsmanship
lies not in the movements
Everything can be done from the heart
Change nothing into something
Dad, what is kendo?
Regard the world as the heart and
regard swordsmanship as the way
The world is so big
It's not just about one move or gesture
broken.
The Chengying Sword is passed on to you
Dad meant
To practice swordsmanship, one
must cultivate one's morality first
The sense of nobility in being generous
You've become a master of the sword
You should help the world.
How to help the world
Now Yue is watching
You're a citizen of the Tan country
Your sword
shall carry the burden of duty
for the people of the Land of Tan
Remember it
Everything comes from the heart
The great righteousness lies in the choice
Madam
Dongli has grown up
If you could see
How nice it would be
I know you've been worried about him
Which way to go
It's up to him
Come on.
Your Majesty
I'm late
It's not late.
General Fei Ke
You're just in time
Dear ministers,
Do you have anything else?
I have a report to make
What's the matter, General Fei Ke?
I request more troops to Xixiakou
Send troops to attack Tan
It's only a matter of time before
we unify the Central Plains.
I, Fei Ke, would like to lead an expedition
to Tan.
My Lord,
The appointment with the
Prince of Tan has arrived.
Now in Xixiakou
It is undoubtedly a direct
declaration of war against Tan
I think
Not possible
And now there is a
severe drought in the north
Please show mercy to
the people, Your Majesty
General Zuo Feng
Your father and I
fought for the late Emperor,
and it took years
to create the present state of Yue.
It was the late Emperor's
wish to unite the Central Plains
so I'm now opening up new territories to
Establish a remarkable
foundation for the king
Why not?
The late emperor's last wish
I think it's because General Fei Ke
wants to avenge the loss of Xixiakou
Great King
Tan is a small country
which does not know how to be generous.
Repeated provocations
I think it's time to send troops
Let Tan Kingdom know
who is the dominant
power in the Central Plains
I know your mind, General
But I'm tired today
Go back to the court
I humbly submit
Approved
Kill Zuo Feng
Fei Ke
You're too cruel
General.
Someone come
Yes
Drag Zuo Feng out of the hall
take off his official clothes
Chop it off.
Let me go
I'll walk by myself
The wolf's wild ambition.
The wolf's wild ambition
Help me!
Help me!
Help me
Help me
Pull hard
Come on, quickly
Are you alright?
Hurry up.
Harder
Are you alright?
Why did you fall in here?
It's okay. It's okay.
Come on, help him up
Slow down
Village head
The pendant of the State of Yue
You are from the State of Yue
And a knife wound.
How did the injury happen?
You are a soldier of the State of Yue
I'm not
Then why do you have a knife wound?
How did you get in?
I was chased by robbers
I accidentally came here
Stagnant pool
How did you get into there by mistake
Yes, it is
Yes, it is.
Say, how did you get in?
Yeah, say it
How did you get in?
Say it
Gabe
I just saved a man of
Yue from the stagnant pool
Village head
Give him to the government
Yes, send him to the government
The Yue Kingdom is too aggressive
That's it.
Our Prince is still being
held captive by them
Send him to the government
Send him to the government
Will they kill him?
Everyone in Yue should be killed
Yes, it is.
The people of Yue deserve to be killed.
They should all be killed
Mr. Gai won't come
Please let the village head decide
Yes, village head
Say something
Yes, village head
Village head, say something
Village head, what should we do?
Please give me some idea
Send him to the government
Don't let him go, village head
That's it.
After all, it's a human life.
Look at his appearance
And it's not like a spy
Why is he not a spy
Yes, indeed.
He's a spy
How do you know he's not a spy?
All right.
He's a spy
Release the person
Village chief
We can't let him go
Village head, we can't let him escape
Okay, let him go
Village head
Village head
Village head
We can't let him go
Please think it over
Think carefully
We can't let him go
Yao Village is located at the junction
of the State of Tan and the State of Yue
The terrain outside the village is complex,
with swamps and muddy puddles everywhere
It is called the Dead Water Pool
If you don't know the way
Everyone can hardly move
Walk a hundred steps west and turn east
Xunfeng reversed Qian has a head
Left is dead, right is alive
Keep the righteous path in mind
Hurry up.
Hurry up
That's it.
Take two more steps forward
Yes, that's right.
Okay, stop, stop, stop.
Take off his blindfold
Here.
Here's the rations.
For your journey.
After the danger zone
keep going straight
and you'll reach the Yue border.
Thank you all
A great favour is not to be thanked
Someday
I will repay you in kind.
Come on, let's go
It's late. Hurry up and go
Let's go.
Hurry back
Let's go.
Let's go.
Your Majesty
Ten years have passed
Yue has no intention of
returning the Crown Prince
At the same time
Fei Ke sets up heavy forces in Xixiakou
Extremely frequent movements
This is a provocation.
Your Majesty
We need to discuss the rescue
of the Prince as soon as possible
I would like to lead the
army to fight against Yue
Save the Prince
General Yu Wu
What do you think?
Your Majesty
I think it's not feasible
Why not?
Keeping a thousand
soldiers for a day is useless
We, the Tan Kingdom, have
been saving our energy for ten years
so that we can one day
defeat the Yue Kingdom
defeat the Yue Kingdom
and wipe out our past shame
General, you're not
scared because you're old
are you?
Dr. You
For so many years
Yue has been eyeing Tan
The Crown Prince hasn't returned yet
If we rush in, it's hard to tell
whether we will win or lose
In the end, it's the people
of the country who suffer
So it's better to take a
long-term view on this matter
Dr. Li
Why do you need to be
more powerful than others
The two countries have
been at odds for many years
There will be a battle
Although the State of Yue is strong
as long as the Crown Prince does not return
, the Tan State will
be restricted by others.
General Yu Wu
Are you still in shock after the
assassination a few days ago
You must be scared
The assassin has been
repelled by the Iron Eagle Guard
Thank you for your concern, Dr. You
Thank you, but it's not necessary
But do you know
Because of this matter
Yue may have broken through
the Yao Village natural barrier
Bring the person up
Dr. You
Who is this?
Why are you so badly hurt
Your Majesty
This person is one of the people
who were sent by the Yue Kingdom to
assassinate General Yu Wu a few days ago,
and was captured at the Yue border.
The other one fled to Yao Village
The rural folkway of
Yaoyao is simple and honest
very easily deceived
I estimate,
that they have already passed
the stagnant pool by now.
General Yu Wu
Do you know about this?
I made a mistake
I deserve death.
Your Majesty
General Yu Wu is responsible for
negotiating the fortress of the border.
The assassin has nothing
to do with the general
We should focus on the
matter of Yaocun at present
Keep the secret of Yaocun Village
We should plan carefully for
the matter of the crown prince
My king
General Yu Wu is the pillar of the country
He has exhausted his heart and
soul for the country and people.
This time, he was indeed careless.
I humbly request that you, my king,
allow General Yu Wu to find a
way to make up for his mistake.
Give approval
Kill him
Only the dead can keep secrets forever.
That's absolutely impossible
Your Majesty
I know my crime
General, please get up
Thank you, Your Majesty.
General Yu Wu
I want to ask you something personal today
and I want you to answer
them directly and quickly.
I am all ears.
After I pass away,
how will the descendants judge
my accomplishments and mistakes?
The Great King upholds the mandate
of heaven and cares for the people
lenient and loving
You can be said as a wise king
For several years
The people and I have suffered a lot
Will they resent me?
Your Majesty
You were considerate of the people
Protect them from the suffering of war
The people love and revere you,
how could they possibly resent the king?
What about the Crown
Prince? Will he resent me?
Your Majesty
The Crown Prince is chosen by heaven.
Even among the great emperors of history,
there were those who were taken hostage.
When he ascends the throne in the future,
he will understand the
difficulties faced by the king.
It's been so many years.
I'm just afraid that
father and son will meet
I won't recognize him either.
I am old.
This heart is old too.
Recently, I've been
dreaming of the Crown Prince.
Yu Wu.
I'm worried that we have no one left.
Veteran Official
I, the veteran official, will definitely
bring the Crown Prince back to the capital.
Greetings to the General Fei Ke
You returned alone from
the mission with nine people.
I am incompetent.
Then how dare you return?
I humbly return,
bearing important news to report.
I have a way.
Pierce the secret of the stagnant pool
Please, Your Honor, give me a
chance to make up for my mistakes.
I will discover the secret
of the Stagnant Pool.
To aid General Fei Ke in
conquering the state of Tan.
Zhong
Ten Days
I will complete my task.
I will fulfill the General's expectations.
Come on out.
General.
Go and run an errand for me.
You and I have known each other for years.
How could I not know what's on your mind?
Today in the courtroom
Dr. You is really arrogant.
I was careless.
I've made a big mistake.
The slaughter of the village is a dilemma.
When I sent the Crown Prince to Yue.
I made up my mind to
bring back the Crown Prince.
General
This is the end of the line.
We have to make a choice
for the sake of our country.
Good move.
This is the game of the Grand Triple Crown.
That's the way it is now.
Wonderful.
I'm just waiting for you to break the game.
Back.
I'm back. I'm back.
It's been a good day.
Not bad.
Zhang Dazui
You're going fishing again.
That's right.
This firewood is good.
This firewood will make a good dish.
I'll cut some more.
Okay, okay, okay. You're busy. You're busy.
I'll leave you to it.
Okay. - Okay.
Slow down.

Your fabric looks good.
Yes, it does.
This is our newest arrival.
Here, feel this.
So, if this is a dress.
I think it's this year's fashionable style.
Yes, it is.
Not only making clothes
like bedding, Sheets, Pillowcases
Anything is fine.
Like to take some
Boss.
It feels good to the touch.
Have you seen this fabric?
Let's see.
No, no, no.
Boss.
Have you seen this fabric?
No, I haven't.
Have you seen this fabric?
My guest.
This fabric is not for the common man.
This is from the Imperial Court.
Give it to me.
Come on. Again.
Who is it?
Who is it?
Cover up.
There are assassins.
Protect the general.
Finally.
Fresh and soft osmanthus cake
The guards of the General's
residence are the Iron Eagle Guards.
There are all kinds of them.
Here, take your pick.
Excuse me.
Do you know where the
Iron Eagle Guard camp is?
I heard it's north of Gyeongin Palace.
The assassin who entered
General Yu-mu's palace last night.
Not found.
Guess he's acting alone.
Motive unknown.
I'll give you two days.
In two days.
Make sure you find the assassin.
Yes, sir.
Who are you?
Yao Village, Gai Dongli.
Dozens of lives have been
lost in the village of Yao.
Is this what you and your
comrades have done?
Come on, come on, come on.
The Iron Eagle Guards are
dedicated to their country.
Duty Bound
It's not your business.
Murdering innocents in
the name of national justice.
How can you be loyal?
You don't kill each other.
The Iron Eagle Guards will
kill you at the end of the earth.
You're not good enough to kill my father.
Who else is there?
Yu Wu
Be careful.
My lord, help me.
Hundred paces west, turn east.
Sundowner reverses and Qian has a head
The left side is dead.
The right side is alive.
Remember the right way of the Big Dipper.
Go forward one by one.
No matter what.
I will find out the secret of
this stagnant pond today.
I want to solve it.
Disobeying orders will be executed.
Quickly.
Who's in the way?
Yu Wu
Protect the Lord.
Sword of Shadow
Has anyone ever told you that
Where this sword came from.
I'll ask you.
You're the one who ordered the
killings of the villagers in Yao Village.
It was me.
Die.
If you want to kill General
Yu Wu, kill me first.
Not bad. Just like his father.
Guidie
Don't hurt Dongli.
You know me.
I'm with your father.
We were brothers who
killed the enemy together.
Joke, brother.
You killed your brother.
Young Hero Gai.
He died by his own sword.
What are you talking about?
Young Hero Gai.
My name is Nanmen Xing,
Captain of the Iron Eagle Guard.
Iron Eagle Guard
Why did you kill the unarmed
people of Yao Village?
Young Hero Gai.
General Yu Wu asked
me to deliver a letter to you.
Go back and tell your lord.
This is my choice.
Letter
Young Hero Gai's Righteousness
Everything from the Heart
Righteousness lies in the choice between
Loyalty to the country,
success to the world.
It sacrifices one village in Yao
to save countless other villages in Tan.
Young Hero Gai.
It was indeed the General
who ordered the massacre.
But the General had no choice.
I'll believe you for now,
but I will investigate the truth,
and then decide whether to take your life.
General.
There is no trace of the
people from Yao Village.
Keep searching.
Yes, let's go.
Yu Wu.
Why do we have to kill everyone?
Young Young Hero Gai.
What does this mean?
Young Hero Gai.
What's going on?
Don't you know what's going on?
You sent your men to hunt me down.
It seems like you also have
a different face for show.
You have a different face
behind closed doors too.
Why do you say that, young warrior?
Young Hero Gai.
This matter has nothing to
do with the Iron Eagle Guard
There must be someone else.
If it's not the Yue in disguise.
It must be the work of
those spies in the court.
Their purpose is not to kill you,
but to capture you.
Why would they want to capture me?
If they are from the court,
then they want to capture you.
To hold General Yu Wu accountable
for his failure in handling the matter.
If they are from the Yue people,
then they want to use you to
break through the natural barriers.
What danger?
The Stagnant Pool at Yaochun
Young sir, you may not be aware of this,
The stagnant pool is
a sure-fire way to kill.
Over the years
The Yue people are attempting to
break through the Deadwater Pool,
but now the secret of the Deadwater Pool
has been discovered by the Yue people
Only by making Yao Village disappear,
can Tan Country be relieved of its worries.
For many years,
the Yue people have not dared
to launch large-scale invasions,
all because of General Yu Wu
For many years,
they have been hoping
for General Yu Wu to fall,
So that they can take advantage of
the chaos and wipe out our country.
Assassins! Protect the General!
Quickly.
Fast
Lord Chang.
We'll cover you. You go first.
Take it down for me.
General.
Young Hero Gai
What's going on?
The young warrior is
being rounded up at the inn.
General
Young Hero Gai
Things have come to a head
There's something I just can't stop saying.
In recent years
The Yue people have repeatedly
reinforced their troops at the border,
The Yue people have repeatedly
reinforced their troops at the border,
Originally, we wanted to use
this place to surprise them,
Insertion into the heart of Vietnam.
And insert into the Yue people's heartland,
But unexpectedly,
This place was discovered by the Yue
If the stagnant pool is
not used by our army first.
The country is in danger.
I have no choice.
We can only take this underhanded approach.
Did the villagers deserve to die?
You're officials.
You can't protect the innocent.
You need the people to protect you.
You're right.
However, Tan Country has
always been weak and small.
Cowardice in the court.
Dissenters are all over the court
There are a few who are
secretly in league with the enemy.
At present, if there is even one
survivor from the Yao Village,
The Secret of the Stagnant Pool
I'm afraid it will be impossible to hide
You can't keep a secret.
And the villagers will have to pay for it.
My death is not enough
to thank him for his crimes.
I am not a man who fears death.
If it comes to my life,
you can take it anytime you wish.
There is only one thing
that I have not yet completed.
If this matter is not resolved,
the blood of the Yao Village's
villagers will have been shed in vain.
What matter?
Rescue the Prince
All These Years
Although there is a truce
agreement between Tan and Yue,
Yue once demanded that
Now that the Crown
Prince's term has expired,
Yue has been delaying the
return of the Crown Prince.
But Yue refuses to return him
I'm not going to Yue.
Father. Father.
Young Hero Gai.
If we don't get the Crown
Prince back before the war.
There may be no other
opportunity in the future.
Lady Gui Die requests that you consider the
greater good and forget personal grievances.
Set aside your family's grievances.
How to Save Each Other
Dead Pool
Since things have come to this,
I'll be frank.
I would like to ask for your help
in rescuing the Crown Prince.
After the deed is done
I will give you my head.
I'd like to apologise to the
spirits of the villagers of Yauchon.
General
if you do this, then Tan Country
Gui Die, you remember this.
It is the unity of the
soldiers that brings victory.
It is the entire country's people.
It is the thousands upon
thousands of Yao Villages.
How can it be called only thanks to me
I'll never go back on my word.
What did you write in
your letters to my father?
I told Brother Guy of
the situation at hand.
It was a choice made
by Brother Guy himself.
The Young Hero Gai is a
hero of the Tan Kingdom.
Let me think for three days.
Three days later Reply
I have a bamboo house
in the western suburbs
You can take Young Young
Hero Gai to stay there and recover.
Take care of him.
Yes
Gold Sore Medicine
It is the unity of the soldiers.
It is the unity of the
officers and soldiers.
It is the support of the
entire country's people.
It is the support of the thousands
upon thousands of Yao Villages.
Young Hero Gai is the
hero of the Tan Kingdom.
We agreed on three days.
This is the first day.
Young Hero Gai.
Do you know how to kill a fish, General Wu?
If someone kills your father.
Will you spare him?
Actually.
General Yu Wu is not my real father.
I grew up without parents.
It was General Yu Wu who saved me.
He brought me home.
Raise Me Up
I was originally from Yue
My parents were deserters from the Yue.
The war reached my hometown.
Don't run.
They're running away with me.
The Yue found us.
Both executed.
Master of the Army
Leave us alone.
Leave us alone.
It's General Yuwu passing through.
Save my life.
Pursue
Stop
In the midst of war, the
people suffer the most.
A little child. What's wrong with that?
You're a Yue. You're the enemy.
Enemy. We're not playing with you.
Let's go.
Hold it.
Gui Die is your sister.
If anyone tries to bully her again.
I won't spare her.
There's more.
Only on the battlefield do we
distinguish between friend and foe.
You're family.
Father, I want to learn the sword.
What's a girl doing with a sword?
To protect you.
Good boy.
Gui Die
Dad
Father has something for you.
What is it?
It's beautiful.
Thank you, Daddy.
Over the years
I've only tried to repay General
Yu Wu for saving my life.
You want to avenge your father's death.
I'm aware of that.
However, this way,
it will only play into the enemy's hands and
further their divide-and-conquer strategy.
Gui Die requests to die
in place of the General.
I've said it.
Three Days
You may leave.
Father? What is Kendo?
The Way of the Sword
with the world in mind.
What is my way of the sword?
The True Way of the Sword
lies not in the moves and techniques.
Everything comes from the heart.
Turning inaction into action
The Man Who Slaughtered the Village
Now Yue is watching
You're a citizen of the Tan country
Your sword shall carry the burden of
duty for the people of the Land of Tan
You're not good enough to kill my father.
Who else is there?
Yu Wu
The Shadow Sword will be passed on to you.
All things come from the heart.
Righteousness is a matter of choice.
Inside is the Young Hero Gai.
Who is it?
The man who avenged the
death of the great Young Hero Gai.
I have a few words for you.
I'll leave as soon as I'm finished.
Do you know who slaughtered the village?
Yes, sir.
Do you know who killed
the Young Hero Gainer?
It is known.
What is your business here in the capital?
Revenge
Dare to ask the young warrior
Can't you kill him with your sword?
If you hesitate.
I can help you kill them.
Just one thing.
What
Dead Pool Map
The Yue
I dare ask the young sir,
if the two countries go to war,
can Tan Country defeat Yue?
It's not about me.
I seek only revenge.
Tan is a small and weak nation
The Suffering of the People
Attacking Vietnam with
the whole country's army
I'm afraid there will be no one left
With My Map
Then you will be avenged
for killing your father.
And the people of the kingdom
will be spared the fire of war.
A man who knows what's good for him
is a man who knows what's good for him.
If you can help General
Feiqi, you will be the best.
Thousands of people have been spared.
That's a blessing for the people.
If I do.
The blood of the people of Yao
Village will have been spilt in vain.
Stagnant Pool
Fei Ke general is determined to win.
I respect the young warrior.
I have a good word for you.
To lead you to the right path.
And you won't budge.
You'll die with your stupidity.
I respect your courage.
Let's go.
I've heard that an assassin
has killed the General.
Are you all right, General?
I'm fine.
The Great King
I've heard that this man comes
from an unusual background.
Who is he?
I dare not speak
General Yuwu said, please
A man from the village of Yao
There's still a remnant in Yao Village.
The Great King
This man must be an old
acquaintance of the General.
That's why I let him escape.
The Great King
This is really sudden.
Before the young warrior appeared,
you don't know what to expect.
My lord.
This man escaped under
the general's command.
The general cannot escape blame
Must Know
If this man falls into the hands of the Yue
The consequences will be unimaginable.
Besides
If the matter of Yaocun is exposed
What will the world say about the court?
I humbly request that Your
Majesty punish Yu wu for his crimes.
And send the Iron Eagle
Guards to arrest the boy.
Your Majesty.
Condemn Yu Wu for a crime
The Young Shall Not Be Killed
The Rescue of the Crown Prince
This man is the key
With this man, all
things will come to pass.
Who is that boy?
He's got the skills.
Son of Gai Nie
Will he help me rescue the Prince?
Guarantee of the Yuwu head
It's 90% likely to succeed
General.
Chang Nansheng failed in his mission.
Misconduct of the Nation
The whole family has been decapitated.
General
That day I went to persuade Gai Dongli
But he wouldn't budge.
Right now
I've heard that Yuwu will
be making a move as well.
Can you spy on the news of Yu Wu?
Not yet.
No more waiting.
Seven days later
Send troops to Tan State
Yes
Dad.
I see the three days are up.
I don't know what kind of
choice Young Hero Gai'll make.
I can understand his choice.
Gui Die
If Gai agree to save the Prince.
We must protect him during the operation.
If he doesn't go
You must not make things difficult for him.
No matter what the situation
We must protect his life.
Father.
I don't want you to promise
to save the Crown Prince.
If he does save the Crown Prince
Then your life
Remember that.
Since I promised him
I will never break my promise.
It's also my account
to the villagers of Yaocun and Gai Nie
In front of our country
we can sacrifice the
lives of the entire village
I, Yu Wu, don't care about my life.
As long as the country can be preserved
The people are free from the war
Let me Yu Wu die alone
Not enough to worry about.
Young Hero Gai
I will help you rescue the Prince.
But there is one thing you must promise me.
Speak.
The man who slaughtered
the village that day was with me
OK
This operation is dangerous.
You're the only one who knows
the way to the stagnant pool.
After we leave.
Everyone is under your command.
Dad.
I would like to go with the Young Hero Gai
You're just a woman.
How can this be?
I'm the best man for the job right now.
Please, Father.
All right.
This is the King's chambers.
This is where the Prince is kept
Where is the barracks?
Here
The King of Yue's Bedchamber is close by
Distance from the barracks
to the Prince's quarters
Half an incense stick.
Where is the palace of the Prince of Yue?
Here
How long does it take to
get from the barracks to here
It'll take half an hour.
OK
Dad
This is the last time
daughter bring you medicine
Take care of yourself.
Dad.
You are closer than my real father
I thank you for your
many years of parenting.
Good boy. Good boy.
General.
Yu Wu'll make a move
Gai Dongli will cross the border from the
Dead Water Pool to rescue the Crown Prince.
OK
Then let's make sure he doesn't come back.
Prepare for war.
Yes
If you want to live, watch your step.
Follow me. Don't make a mistake.
Follow
OK
Slow down. Be careful.
Watch your step.
Stay close.
If you make a move, you can't reverse it.
Sometimes make concessions
in order to gain advantages
In this way, a dead move can come to life.
Su Dafu.
If all the chess pieces
could be like this chessboard
Twenty years have
passed in the blink of an eye.
It's hard to predict.
I can't fight alongside them.
It's really a shame.
Talking about the safety of the country
It's all in the balance.
At a critical moment
Master Gai Nye remains
steadfast in upholding righteousness
Now that such outstanding young
heroes have been cultivated for the country
Once we rescue the Crown Prince
The General can rest assured.
Strange. No one is guarding it.
How should we proceed?
You and Southgate Star
Take 30 elite soldiers to
rescue the Crown Prince.
Remember
Wait until the defenders are gone.
How do we know the defenders are gone?
You'll know when it's time.
What about you?
Ten dead soldiers and me.
Rescuing the Crown Prince
We'll wait here.
If I don't return in an hour.
You can go first.
This is the route map
Take care.
Nan Mengxing
Protect the Gui Die
Do as I say.
OK
Go
Let's go.
When it's done, it's done.
The army he led.
For the dead of the Iron Eagle Guard who
took part in the massacre at Yao Village.
I believe
Do what you're told and
wait for the right moment.
All of you, take cover.
Crouch down.
Assassins! Protect the Prince!
Prince! Assassin!
Go, go, go!
General. General.
The Prince has been robbed.
The Crown Prince of the Tan Kingdom
Our Prince
Abomination.
I can't believe you got away with this.
Rescue the Prince!
We mustn't spare a single Tan's man
Got it.
Quickly.
General's orders.
Rescue the Crown Prince!
Hurry!
This way.
Really retreated.
We attack!
We must keep our composure.
Wait a little longer.
Up.
Go
Don't come any closer.
Don't come any closer.
Prince
Please forgive us for our delay.
You've come to save me.
Yes, sir.
Let's get out of here.
Let's go!
Leave it to me.
Go.
Let's go.
Go!
You think if you've taken my Prince,
then you can defend the country Tan?
You think what you're doing is just.
But
What you're doing now
Can't stop the war.
I urge you to give up.
I admire you.
You can join me and serve under Fei Ke
Help him to complete the unification of
the Central Plains as soon as possible
You and I can rise to the top together
How about it?
Failure to keep covenant, treachery.
Scorned by the world.
The two countries are
at war with each other
It's because of people like you
Though the country is small
But we're all in this together.
The blood of the people of Yao
Village will not be shed in vain.
With your Shadow Sword.
You're already dead.
It's not too late to give up.
Your sword should bear the
weight of the people of Tan.
Take the sky as your heart
and see it as your sword path.
However, the true path of the sword
lies not in the moves and techniques.
Everything can be done from the heart.
A great success is like a deficiency, and
a great success is like an impossibility.
Turning motion into stillness
Turning nothing into something
I don't give up.
As long as I'm standing here.
You'll never get away with this.
Break.
Break

Bad news
The Prince has been taken by the Talons.
Which Prince?
Our Prince
Your Majesty
I am willing to lead the army
to retake the Crown Prince.
How can there be any troops to talk about?
Peace talks, peace talks.
Hurry up with the peace talks
Your Majesty
The two sides sign a truce agreement
Yue offers ten cities in
exchange for the Crown Prince.
Good work, General.
Good. Good.
Well done.
Call Gai Dongli to the palace.
Greetings to the King
Rise to the occasion
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Gai Dongli
You've done a great job.
I wish to reward you.
What do you desire? Speak freely.
I humbly report to the king.
I have no desires.
I wish for a generous burial
for the people of Yao Village.
In that case
Please honour my father's name.
The villagers of Yao sacrificed
their lives for their country.
That's only right.
Your father has a deep
understanding of righteousness.
Hero of the Nation
He will be buried with the
honours of a national hero.
Is there any more?
If the king wants a reward.
Please reward the soldiers.
And the families of the Iron Eagle
Guards who died in this battle.
And yourself?
Dongli wants for nothing.
When it's time to go.
The sword is in the heart,
and the heart is for the world.
That's what a swordmaster is.
The successor of Cheng
Ying sword has arrived.
I will not go back on my word.
General.
So much for the Talking Heads.
And to you, too.
I beg your forgiveness, Young Hero Gai.
General.
There is no choice in national war.
There needs to be a winner and a loser.
Family Feud has options
You can seek revenge or not.
Besides, the disaster of Yao Village
The fault does not lie with you.
I have already let go of the grievances.
Let's part ways here.
Your father.
Did he ever tell you about this sword?
Take care, Gai.
In the future, if you need me.
I will be there.
If you need anything in the future.
I will be there.
Don't you want to know?
What's in the letter?
Is it still important?
