Till The End of The Moon (2023) s01e29 Episode Script

Episode 29

1
Fortunately,
you weren't hurt.
General Ye, what are you doing?
His Majesty went crazy. Are you crazy too?
If my sister sees what you've become now,
she will only be disgusted.
That's nonsense.
Why would she marry me
if she found me disgusting?
Why would she treat me well?
In this world,
only she treated me well.
Only she did…
I…
I…
Tantai Jin.
I plead with you on her behalf.
Please spare her
and let her rest in peace with dignity.
What you gave her, she didn't want
and what she wanted from you,
you always failed to fulfill.
She just wanted to leave you.
She was even willing to die for it.
Don't you understand?
Heaven above!
I'm willing to give up my body,
my spirit,
my everything in exchange!
I only hope
that you and I will never
meet again
in any reincarnation to come.
No.
No!
I don't want to…
I don't want to torture her.
I just want to be nice to her,
just like…
Just like how she protected
and guarded me.
It's awfully dirty.
It will make you sick.
I'm going to beat you up right now.
Why are you getting violent?
We're married after all.
Saving you
is what I'm supposed to do, right?
Yes.
She wanted to leave me.
She wanted to leave so much
that she would
risk everything.
She did it.
Tantai Jin.
Your wife,
my sister,
this woman called Ye Xiwu, is dead.
The deceased has passed.
It's time to let her rest in peace.
I hope you know the right thing to do.
General Ye, wait.
General.
His Majesty doesn't have
many close confidants.
You're the only one who can advise him.
You can't leave like this.
My persuasion is useless
if he's stubbornly trapped
in his own delusions!
I envy him
for he can be so crazy.
I also want to mourn
my loved ones as he does,
but how many generals and civilians
have died in this war-torn country?
The Jing Kingdom
is now in dire need of someone
to revive the country,
but he's indulging in his own sorrow
and is unwilling to wake up.
Did Xiwu, my father,
my brother,
and Pianran
all die in vain?
He wants to die with Xiwu.
But what about me?
Why would I want to live miserably alone?
But I can't let them die in vain.
The broken country and its people
need someone to carry it forward.
Can you understand how I feel?
Yes.
I may never be able
to be as crazy as His Majesty.
This is the consequence of those
who have been through the horrors of war.
The first thing that comes to my mind
is what to do with those who lived
and who caused them
to reach
this point today.
The culprit, Tantai Minglang,
was killed by His Majesty himself.
Who are you referring to?
Captain Nian,
they have found Ye Bingchang.
She was to leave the city in disguise
but was recognized by the guards.
Should…
Should we lock her back in?
Captain Nian.
Can you bring Ye Bingchang here?
I have questions for her.
Why did you escape?
Qingyu.
Save me.
I don't want to be locked up again.
The dungeon is an abyss of darkness.
I have had enough.
I know I was wrong.
That day in the dungeon,
why did you try to kill Xiwu?
If we were one moment late,
she would have died there.
I told you.
I was taking revenge.
Ye Xiwu caused Xiao Lin's death.
You're lying!
Ye Bingchang,
I thought about it over and over again.
You're her own sister.
If you wanted to kill her,
you had many opportunities.
There was no need to wait
until she was thrown into prison.
Ye Qingyu.
You're indeed the only smart person
in the entire Ye family, besides me.
I'm also your sister.
Are you really going to give me no way out
just because of Xiwu?
Don't compare yourself with Xiwu.
You're no longer a Ye family member
for what you've done.
Is that so, Ye Qingyu?
What right do you have to criticize me
from a high and mighty position?
Throughout history,
the winners have been taking it all.
If Xiao Lin had conquered the world,
it would be Ye Xiwu who kneels here today,
being spurned by you.
Fine.
Since you want to know the truth so badly,
I'll tell you.
I tried to kill Ye Xiwu
because I didn't want the truth
about the poisoned porridge
to be exposed one day.
Poisoned porridge?
Yes.
Ye Xiwu wanted to please Tantai Jin.
She couldn't cook
but insisted on making porridge,
so I decided
to put some poison
in the porridge.
What did you say?
What about Grandmother?
You knew the porridge was poisoned,
yet you still gave it to her!
That's right.
I want her
to die with Tantai Jin
and Ye Xiwu.
Ye Bingchang.
You're out of your mind.
Not at all.
I was very clearheaded.
I just didn't want
to tolerate this anymore.
The old lady sided with Ye Xiwu
and only loved her.
Since she liked Ye Xiwu so much,
I could just fulfill her wish.
Then why did you
want to poison Tantai Jin?
Tantai Jin?
It's all because of him
that Xiao Lin was nothing.
I lost everything.
Later,
he even took away the love lines.
He still wanted me to live,
but I didn't want to yield.
I wouldn't have fallen to this point
if it weren't for him.
I see.
If it weren't for you,
Xiao Lin wouldn't have died.
I thought Ye Xiwu
wanted to kill me for Xiao Lin,
so that was why
everything happened afterward.
Open your mouth.
You wanted to kill me,
but you got Xiao Lin killed.
Since then, Ye Xiwu hated me to the core,
which led to where we are today.
Nonsense.
It wasn't me.
It was you.
You and Ye Xiwu got Xiao Lin killed.
Ye Bingchang.
Xiao Lin entrusted me
to spare your life before his death,
so what should I do now?
I never liked this world,
but Ye Xiwu is different.
She loved this world.
She wanted to give love
even to widows and orphans,
to refugees and the common people.
That's why
I wanted to try
to love this world like she did,
but…
Now that Ye Xiwu is gone,
my heart is dead too.
I want to hate everything,
but Ye Xiwu wouldn't be happy about it.
Ye Bingchang.
If you like porridge so much,
I'll let you have enough of it.
Yes.
Let me out!
Let me out!
Let me out!
Tantai Jin.
Tantai Jin.
You're awake.
Don't sleep here.
You will catch a cold.
I know what I'm doing.
What are you doing?
Once you start reading,
you never take a break.
Even if you want to become a good king
who works hard for the people,
you can't harm your own body.
Why are you looking at me like that?
I won't run away all of a sudden.
Ye Xiwu.
What do you really want to do
by coming to my side?
Yes.
I should have left.
Ye Xiwu.
Ye Xiwu.
Ye Xiwu.
Ye Xiwu!
Ye Xiwu!
Xiao Lin.
Why did you die?
Why didn't you come and save me?
The one I wanted to kill was Tantai Jin.
Now you're dead.
What is the use of your dying wish?
Tantai Jin still wants to kill me.
Pang Yizhi?
Ye Bingchang.
Why are you here?
Are you here
to save me?
You deserve your punishment,
so I won't save you.
However,
Xiao Lin left something with me
before his death
for you.
It's a letter from him.
"Wife…"
TO MY WIFE…
He still recognized me as his wife,
but it's a little late.
Xiao Lin was upright and loyal,
but how did you treat him?
Upright…
and loyal?
What does that have to do with me?
That's all I can say.
TO MY WIFE, BINGCHANG
Bingchang,
things have come to this point.
I no longer care
about the letter you wrote
asking me to save you
or whether you ever plotted against me.
We are a married couple
and there are some things
I still want you to know.
It's said the closest people
can sometimes be the least close.
In the past, I was constantly distressed,
feeling that no matter how hard I tried,
I couldn't win your complete trust.
It was not until the day
I learned about the love lines
that I finally understood
why you always seemed so uneasy.
You were worried
that the love you received was all false,
weren't you?
Bingchang.
Actually,
whether you had the love lines or not,
there would still be people loving you.
Perhaps you don't remember this.
In the late spring of that year,
you and the women of the Ye family
went outside the city
to worship ancestors.
You got off the carriage alone
to take a walk.
I still remember
how happy you were
because of some blackberry roses
and how beautiful your smile was.
Blackberry roses
don't compete with other flowers
and bloom the latest in loneliness.
I'll remember your look
with flowers in your hair
and your smile in spring
for the rest of my life.
Later on,
when you distributed porridge
to the people in the city,
I secretly went to watch as well.
I liked you not because of the love lines
but because of who you are.
Unfortunately,
I never got the chance
to tell you these things
and our fate has come to an end.
Bingchang.
I hope
that your wishes may come true.
Xiao Lin.
I always thought
that it was the love lines
that made me receive favoritism.
As it turns out,
I'm the one
who has been wrong all this time.
I'm sorry.
I was wrong.
I have got both the blood of enemies
and the tears of lovers.
Won't you see her for one last time?
No need.
Captain Nian.
Thank you for taking care
of the burial of my father and brother.
Your father and brother
sacrificed to protect the people.
Captain Pianran did the same.
Their acts of righteousness
are truly admirable.
How is His Majesty?
He went to the royal tomb
early this morning.
He promised
to bury Xiwu with the ceremony
of a queen in a few days.
-In a few days?
-What's wrong?
Nothing.
I hope he doesn't go back on his word.
The courtiers were initially worried
that His Majesty
would abandon the country for one person.
Now they are all relieved.
General Ye, to be honest,
I wish His Majesty
weren't the king anymore
so that
he could leave this sad place.
Sad place?
Yes.
His queen died here.
When he sees her,
how can he be happy again?
Yes.
Someone has lost
the one he loves the most
but still has to be trapped here forever.
Every flower, every leaf,
every blade of grass, and every tree
would feel like sharp blades
slowly cutting into his heart.
TOMB OF YE XIWU,
THE BELOVED WIFE OF TANTAI JIN
General Ye.
I know that
you also lost someone you loved the most.
Whether for you or His Majesty,
this period of time
will be very difficult to endure.
You once promised
to take me home with you.
Now,
there are no others disturbing us here.
I'll go back with you.
You will take me to see the lake
and watch the stars you have seen.
We will never be separated again.
You belong only to me
and I belong only to you.
Despite the changes in the world,
we will remain steadfast.
We will both keep our promise this time,
so you will belong to me forever.
Ye Xiwu.
Let's go home together.
Fire! Help!
-The palace is on fire!
-Put it out!
-Hurry up!
-Put out the fire!
-Hurry up!
-Hurry up!
Quickly!
-Help!
-Hurry up!
Put out the fire!
Hurry up!
Hurry up!
This way!
Get more water!
Hurry up!
Sir,
we have searched through the ruins
but found nothing.
His Majesty must have had a plan
and left the letter in advance.
A country can't be without a ruler.
His Majesty entrusted in the letter,
instructing you to find a capable member
from a branch of the Tantai family
to inherit the throne.
For the stability of the kingdom,
you must complete His Majesty's request.
Yes.
Too many people have died.
I can't believe
it has been 10,000 years.
I never thought that you and I
would have a chance to meet again.
Siying?
That's right.
We both lived,
but we never get to meet our lord.
Don't be sad.
It has been 10,000 years.
It's time
to welcome the new Devil God.
True.
As long as the evil bone remains,
our lord will never disappear.
Now that Barren Abyss is unsealed,
from today onward,
I'll travel across
the Four Continents and Three Realms
to find the trail of the new Devil God.
However, with such boundless crowds,
where should I start my search?
The bank of the Ruo River.
I heard that the bank of the Ruo River
is where the spirits of the dead gather,
but our lord is the Devil God.
Will his spirit be there?
He certainly
wouldn't mingle with the ordinary.
However, I heard that back then,
he made a special agreement
with Yiyue Tribe
of the bank of the Ruo River.
Why don't we
start our search from there?
Good idea.
Now that we have been revived,
it's time for us to reunite
and restore the Devil Realm
for our lord.
It has been 10,000 years.
Do you still know us?
I'm the Demon of Drought, Siying.
Today, under the command of the Devil God,
I order you
to find the Devil God
and restore Barren Abyss.
Those who refuse to obey
shall be killed!
-Devil God!
-Devil God!
-Devil God!
-Devil God!
-Devil God!
-Devil God!
-Devil God!
-Devil God!
-Devil God!
-Devil God!
The Ruo River guarded by Yiyue Tribe
is also the Nether River.
When the moon turns
into an underworld moon,
Yiyue Tribe
can use their spells to open
Gate of Underworld Moon
and enter the place
where the spirits gather.
Your Majesty.
Your Majesty.
Your Majesty.
Ye Xiwu.
Go away.
Your Majesty.
You can't stay here.
Let go.
Your Majesty.
I know that rescuing you
is against your will.
However, I know of a way
for you to see Ye Xiwu again.
Ye Xiwu is right here.
I'm not going anywhere.
Go away.
-Your Majesty!
-Nian Baiyu!
The Ruo River guarded by Yiyue Tribe
is also the Nether River.
I can tell you
where to find Ye Xiwu's spirit.
What did you say?
My lord,
are you sure you want to go in?
Gate of Underworld Moon
has been opened a few times,
but the people who entered
never came back.
Sir, will you come back?
My lord,
there's no end or way out in there.
How will you come back?
Nian Baiyu,
thank you for your help all this time.
Ye Xiwu.
Where are you?
Ye Xiwu.
Where are you?
My lord…
Here. Freshly boiled milk tea.
Thank you.
Baiyu, stop feeling sad.
Every man has his destiny.
You have done everything you can.
Ziling, Mother.
Do you think
the lord can find who he wants to meet?
It's up to how sincere one's heart is.
Who knows?
There are thousands of spirits in there.
Even if he can resist
the erosion of Ruo Water,
how long will it take for him
to recognize each spirit one by one?
Ye Xiwu, where are you?
Look. It's him again.
He has been here for several months.
Who is he looking for?
I don't know.
Let's ask him.
Hey, who are you looking for?
Ye Xiwu.
I'm looking for her.
Can you help me find Ye Xiwu?
Ye Xiwu?
The one you're looking for
is called Ye Xiwu?
Yes.
Ye Xiwu.
There are so many spirits here.
We don't know them all.
Perhaps the one you're looking for
is in the depths of the Nether River.
However…
Ye Xiwu.
Where is she?
Tantai Jin.
You're here.
Ye Xiwu.
Tantai Jin,
it has been a while.
Ye Xiwu.
You're really here.
You finally came.
It's really you.
Ye Xiwu.
Where did you go?
No.
Ye Xiwu.
Ye Xiwu.
Ye Xiwu.
Ye Xiwu!
Mortal bodies will be tempted
by Ruo Water and see illusions.
In the end, they will be devoured.
Ye Xiwu.
You must be in the Nether River.
I'll find you.
Instead of letting you perish,
let us take you to find her.
Get on the boat.
You won't be hurt
as long as you don't touch the water.
Ye Xiwu.
You died because of me.
No matter what it takes,
I'll take you home.
Ye Xiwu.
Ye Xiwu.
No, he seems to be seeing illusions again.
Is it worth it to do all this
for a deceased person?
Yes.
I will
keep looking
and keep doing this
until my life is over.
Baiyu, where did you go?
Mother.
I just went to the bank
of the Ruo River to check
if the lord is back or not.
You know very well
that the gate only opens
once every 500 years.
Your lord entered it.
There's no way he will be back.
Baiyu, you're already back here.
Just let go of the past
and live your life well.
Yes, Baiyu.
The girl I talked to you about last time,
do you really not want to meet her?
Maybe I should really forget
about my lord.
Yes, live your own life.
-Ziling, Mother. stay home.
-Help!
-I'll go and check it out.
-Run!
Be careful.
Hurry up!
It's not fun to kill him.
Why don't we just keep him alive,
in case he might come in handy
in the future?
Let's go.
Let's look for the devil fetus.
I wonder how long it will take
to look through them one by one.
My lord.
I can't live to see you come back.
I found two dandelions
in your precious Royal Garden.
Surprisingly, they have not
been removed by the gardeners.
They are really fortunate.
I heard that one could
make wishes on dandelions,
so I dug them up.
My hands…
Why?
Now,
I'm taking your evil bone
and trading it with an immortal marrow.
You won't become the Devil God anymore.
Ye Xiwu.
Is the immortal marrow
you gave me healing me?
You let me live
but also made me suffer
the pain of shredding me
in pieces again and again.
Is this your revenge on me?
It doesn't matter.
As long as it's from you,
I'll accept it.
Why are you still not giving up?
No…
She's still somewhere in here.
I'll definitely find her.
Who is he?
A pitiful person.
In order to find his deceased lover,
he has been searching in the Nether River
for 100 years
but still hasn't found her.
World-Alluring Jade?
Can it help me find Ye Xiwu's spirit?
She bore the curse
of violent death for me.
Please give me a chance to repay her.
Ye Xiwu.
When can I find you?
FOUR HUNDRED YEARS LATER
Today, I'll tell you a secret story.
It's said that 500 years ago,
the king was named Tantai Jin.
Legend has it that he was born
by killing his mother,
which was extremely ominous,
but he unified the Jing Kingdom
and the Sheng Kingdom
and achieved greatness.
Nobody knows that
he once burned down
the palace of Jing for a woman
and was burned so badly
that his face was destroyed.
To commemorate him,
the Tantai family's generations of kings
-have all worn masks
-Tantai Jin…
to cover their faces.
There's another story
that said the Devil God
would appear in the world again
in 500 years, which is now.
There are too many rumors
about the world ending.
Someone said that the Devil God
would end the world last year,
but what happened?
Nothing.
The healing power of the immortal marrow
is getting weaker and weaker.
I'm afraid my body has reached its limit.
Ye Xiwu.
Even if I were to die today,
I would still search for you
for another day.
After I die,
my spirit can merge
with this Nether Water,
and I'll continue to seek you.
Are you still not giving up?
Sir, why are you still not giving up?
Don't waste your breath with him.
After being washed
by Ruo Water for 500 years,
he can no longer hear anything.
Tantai Jin.
Tantai Jin, go back with me.
Don't get too carried away.
I never said I'd spend
the rest of my life with you.
Ye Xiwu.
I'm coming for you.
