【古裝 ENG SUB】刺秦20 Assassination of King Qin丨迪麗熱巴自幼習武化身女刺客，為報家仇入宮為妃伺機行刺！

Your Highness. Your Highness. Your Majesty, please accept my respects. Cut the cackle. Treat her right now. Yes, Your Majesty. Please wake up. Palace doctor. Your Majesty, Han Shen was sent to the Academy of Medicine for treatment. He's heavily wounded. Tell me why there was an assassination in the hall today. Why did a group of guards rush out when Concubine Li hit the ball? As far as I know, they are guards of Huayang Palace. They came to the hall to protect Her Majesty Great Empress Dowager Huayang. What about the assassin? I'm investigating her background. Our palace was so carelessly guarded that the assassin dared to kill people in the hall. Your Majesty, calm down. I'll thoroughly investigate this matter and then report to you. Li Zhong, did you hurt Concubine Li because you thought she meant to kill me? At that time… Just tell me what you think. You know I trust you deeply, so just say your thoughts. There was indeed a chaotic situation in the hall. Her Highness Concubine Li suddenly charged towards you with a sword. I thought she intended to assassinate you, so I came forward to stop her. Now I know if she didn't throw her sword, you might have been stabbed by that assassin. The consequences would be too ghastly to contemplate. So I think although Her Highness is skilled in martial arts and swordsmanship, she has a lot of time and places to assassinate you if she wants to. The hall is full of guards today, so it's completely unreasonable for her to assassinate you in public. Concubine Chu, you really made a great play today. Mindai, I was scared out of my mind. How could you say that? You didn't expect that Han Shen would rush out, right? I don't know what you're talking about. But I think Concubine Li was going to assassinate His Majesty. Concubine Mindai, you're a clever woman. And you're also close to Concubine Li. Do you know why she wanted to assassinate His Majesty? Assassinate His Majesty? Didn't you see? She was protecting His Majesty. Who knows? I think it's you who plotted all this. Your Highness, you have no evidence to accuse Her Highness. You may deny it, but the truth will always come to light. Mindai, your words have a sting in them. And you always take Concubine Li's side. You don't have to admit it. You know well what you did. May I offer a piece of advice? She who is unjust is doomed to destruction. Your Majesty, Her Highness's injury is not serious, but she still has a fever. You can leave. I'll take care of her myself. Yes. Yes. Senior Han. Senior Han. Don't worry. I will definitely save him. Have a good rest, okay? What happened in the palace these days? The swordsmanship dance was arranged by Great Empress Dowager Huayang, but Concubine Li and Han Shen were injured. Now the six guards from Huayang Palace have been targeted by the King of Qin. It's reported that The King hasn't investigated that assassin in the palace. Turning against the six states, Ying Zheng knows it's common for the appearance of several assassins in his palace. The assassin is from the state of Wei. All her family members were killed by the Qin army. She, a nobody, has nothing to do with Jicheng. They will never find out that the assassin was arranged by us. This matter will never implicate our state Yan. How is Concubine Li? Did she draw her sword that day just because of her instinct as a swordswoman or her care for Ying Zheng? Your Majesty, why are you so concerned about her action? She's a concubine of the King of Qin, so it's common for her to protect him, right? I just think she's different from other concubines in the harem. Since she entered the palace, she has not coveted the title of the queen. And she even dares to offend Ying Zheng. You mean we can draw her over to our side, so that she'll help strengthen our state? I don't mean that. And she's strong, resolute and indifferent to fame and fortune. She can be a truly brave and talented swordswoman in the martial arts world. I'm afraid it's not that easy to draw her over to our side. Ying Zheng can have such a woman with both talent and virtue. I'm a bit jealous of him. Li, you woke up. Did you have a nightmare? I didn't know when I fell asleep beside you. Li, you know I've always slept alone. I've never fallen asleep beside others. You said that when we were in Luoyang. Why are you here? This is my room. This is your room? Actually, I don't like to sleep with others. Me either. How do you feel? It seems that your fever is gone. My senior… How is Han Shen? He lost a lot of blood. I already ordered the palace doctor to treat him. Senior Han stood before me when one guard swung his sword at me. He must have been seriously injured. I need to go and see him. The palace doctor said you need to take care of yourself. If you get up and walk, your previous wound may open. Besides, if you go now, you won't be able to help much. Don't worry. Lie in bed in peace. I'll go and see him for you. In fact, I didn't mean to assassinate you that day. When dancing, I found a real sword falling from above suddenly. Seeing there was an assassin behind you, I rushed to you. If my senior hadn't stood before me, I would have been covered all over with wounds or might have been executed. I will definitely find out this matter. I'll severely punish the evil people for you. Actually, I think there're still many doubts about what happened that day. If someone wanted to frame the charge of assassination on me, why was there an assassin in the palace that day? I feel like there're two evil forces behind. Our state turns against the six states, so lots of people want to kill me. However, the one who dared to frame you at my birthday banquet by your swordsmanship dance is more vicious than the assassin. Your Majesty, Your Highness. Your Highness, you finally woke up. I'm so worried about you. Give me the medicine. Drink it. You're my wife. You're sick now, so it's my duty to take care of you. Drink it. Let me do it myself. I'm not a kid. Well, do you think the medicine is toxic? I don't mean it. May I ask Qing to feed me? If anyone dares to take over my work, I will behead her. If you go on refusing to eat it, I'll feed you them one by one like this. Be good. Take the medicine. Drink it. So bustling. We finally came to the city. I don't have to eat those pancakes. They're so tasteless. I'm eager to have a hot sumptuous meal. Okay. Fresh vegetables. Jing, what's up? It's okay. I'm a bit hungry. I seem to smell some cooked food. Let's go for a meal. Okay, let's go. You can leave. Yes. Your Majesty. How is he? He's severely injured. I applied the best healing medicine in the palace to him, but he still has a fever. If he can get through these two days, he'll come safely. Fortunately, he's young and strong. I felt his pulse. Although he has a weak pulse manifestation, I guess he can pull through. He's really a loyal and dutiful guard. If he hadn't stood before Her Highness Concubine Li, the consequences would be too ghastly to contemplate. He risked his life protecting Concubine Li. Not everyone could do it. Palace Doctor Zheng, try your best to save him. If you have any need, report to me at any time. Yes, Your Majesty. Good. Good. They have genuine skill. Awesome. Both are top masters. Yes. We can know that by their competition. Both have strong internal force. Qin, young as you are, you have strong internal force. After some time, you'll become more powerful. I must defeat you today. Be patient. It takes time to progress. Go on practicing. Good. Good. Good. Swordsman Gao has defeated him for 79 times until today. You really deserve your reputation in the martial arts world. Awesome. Good. Awesome. Awesome. I'll defeat you next time. Good. Everyone, go back to your seat. Sir. Let's go. It's really a worthwhile trip. Gao. Gao. Ge Lan. Jing Ke. Long time no see. You've progressed a lot. Jing Ke, you look different. Thank you for your previous guidance. I've taken on a new self. Or I would still lead a befuddled life and drink down. It's good that you can come round. Miss Ge Lan, you've come together. Long time no see. Unexpectedly, you're also in Daliang. You usually live in the state of Qi. Have you stayed in the state of Wei recently? In fact, I'm here for something. Gao, what brings you here? It's a long story. Let's sit down and talk slowly. Okay. How is the investigation going? Through an overall investigation, I learn that the assassin who infiltrated the palace that day was from the state of Wei. She seems unrelated to the six guards of Huayang Palace. The assassination operation may have been instructed by others, so I need to conduct a further investigation. My grandma asked Concubine Li to dance at my birthday banquet. Then she took the opportunity to bring her guards into the palace and found a chance to kill Concubine Li on the pretext of protecting me when there was a riot. Now I find it's actually a well-designed trap Where are the six guards detained? I wanted to summon them for interrogation, but Her Majesty stopped me at the gate of Huayang Palace. What? Her Majesty insisted that the six guards, beyond the jurisdiction of Xianyang Palace, were disallowed to inquire without reason. Why can't I intervene in the small Huayang Palace in my territory? Well, I'll tell my grandma whether her palace guards are under my control or not. Your Majesty, with all my due respect, we just sent troops and allied with Wei to attack Chu. It's not a critical battle, but if Her Majesty is annoyed at this time and Chu finds a chance to send troops and ally with Wei, we'll suffer a south-north pincer attack and fall into an unfavorable situation. Please think it over and consider the overall situation. This matter can be discussed later. We've always treated Chu with forbearance these years. If my grandma finds a chance to incite her home state to attack us, I'll seize this chance to eliminate her. Li Zhong? Yes. Go to Huayang Palace with me right now. Yes. Your Majesty, please accept my respects. Your Excellency Li, don't stand on ceremony. Thank you, Your Majesty. As the Commandant of Justice, you must be busy with state affairs. I feel honored to meet you here today. In the Qin palace, everyone knows Your Majesty holds the supreme power of the harem. As a petty official, I feel honored to be summoned by Your Majesty. You're so modest. We, both from Chu, have served Qin loyally, so we should help each other. Your Excellency, this is a jade ladle with dear's pattern Her Majesty retrieved from her home state. Was it made by Bi Wu, a famous Chu craftsman? You know jade so well. This jade ladle looks bright and lustrous, with vigorous carving skills. It's indeed a rare treasure. This is a gift for you. For me? As the saying goes, no gains without pains. I can't accept such a valuable gift. Please take it. It's a gift from Her Majesty and me. It's our first meeting, and I hope we can help each other later. Please favor us a lot later. Since it's given by Your Majesty, I'll take it. Thank you, Your Majesty. To return your favor, I'd like to share a piece of news with you. We Chu people are all frank and outgoing. I really appreciate your frankness. Please go ahead. But it's a piece of bad news. A few days ago, a Wei envoy presented himself to His Majesty, hoping that we can send troops to attack Chu and help them retrieve the land Chu had occupied. It's funny for the Chu envoy to mention those old scores. They lost, so surely they had to cede their land to seek peace. Shame on them. Your Majesty, what you said makes sense. But as far as I know, His Majesty has already decided to send troops to help them. Really? Your Excellency Li, is there any way to stop His Majesty? In a humble position, my word does not carry much weight. His Majesty has decided it and had the military orders issued to all departments. I'm afraid the army is on its way now. Now you can only quickly notify the Chu elders, so that they can make early preparations. Your Majesty, I was informed that His Majesty is rushing here with Commander and two squads of imperial guards. It's said, it's said they'll come to arrest our guards. What? Your Majesty, it's already dusk. Why do you order Commander and imperial guards to rush into my palace without reason? I'm not here without reason today. Six guards from your palace disdained my power and disrupted the palace order at my birthday banquet. Go arrest them. Yes. Wait. How dare you catch my guards before me? Then first kill me. I want to see whether you show any respect for me. If you think I make trouble and disdain your power, just kill me. Since you don't want me to interrogate your guards, it's meaningless to keep their lives. Imperial guards, listen up. Yes. Arrest them. Yes. Your Majesty. Your Majesty, please spare us. Wait. Please spare us. Please spare us, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, please spare them. You are injured. The palace doctor said you need to rest quietly to recuperate. You shouldn't have come here. Your Majesty, may I make bold to entreat your favor for them? They accidentally injured me because they wanted to protect you that day. So please spare them and don't vent your angry on them. You can forgive them, but I can't let them go so easily or allow them to act wildly in my palace. The accident at my birthday banquet was originally a designed trap. They exploited me to trap you for disloyalty. I hate others to exploit me by such despicable means most. I won't spare them. Your Majesty, when I was dancing that day, a sword fell into my hands suddenly. Everyone thought I was an assassin. These guards protected you with due diligence. They're loyal to you, but you return them with penalty of death. No matter what the truth may be, it will be covered. Is this the result that you want? Okay. Six guards of Huayang Palace, listen up. Yes. You entered the palace illegally and violated the palace rules. Considering you meant to protect me, I decide to remove your palace positions and send you to exile. Thank you, Your Majesty. It's such a bad move. That bad woman had the upper hand. She made a great play before His Majesty. She just wanted to falsely please Her Majesty Great Empress Dowager by this chance. It pissed me off. Your Highness, do you think that assassin was arranged by Concubine Li? Then the assassin was killed by her. There may be such a possibility. A dead person tells no tales. What a good move! First, His Majesty deeply believes in Concubine Li's loyalty. Second, Her Majesty may not turn against Concubine Li later. Third, concubines and palace people in the palace know that she has both civil and military skills. They all look at her with admiration. It must be like this. What a slut! Jing Ke, do you know Qin helps Wei attack Chu in recent months? No, I don't know. Do you know the detailed reason? Yes. The Qin army attacks Chu to help Wei recover the previous lost land, the old land of Song. It's heard they've sent troops of four commanderies. Having confidence in victory, Qin thought they could repel the Chu army soon. Unexpectedly, the battle hangs in the balance. The two armies are in a deadlock. The Qin army finds it difficult to gain the upper hand. The longer the deadlock, the more unfavorable it will be for the battle. I'm afraid that tactical impatience may inevitably cause civilians to be treated lightly. I see. You're afraid that this battle may kill those innocent civilians, so you want to help them on your own. Yes, It's of great significance. As people in the martial arts world, we must contribute our own strength. Right, Jing? Yes, you're right. We're swordsmen in the martial arts world. In normal times, we practice martial arts and swordsmanship to step forward bravely and protect our states and people at the critical moment, right? Good. Well, let's propose a toast and wish the country is at peace. Wish the country is at peace. How do you feel these days? I've already felt much better. Thank you for taking my advice that day. If those guards were killed due to me, I would feel guilty. They were spared, but you were nearly killed by them. Besides what you said that day, Li Zhong also gave me much advice. We've been caught in a deadlock in the battle of allying with Wei to attack Chu recently. If I argue with my grandma at this critical moment, she may incite people of her home state to retaliate against me. Your Majesty, someone wanted to falsely accuse me of assassinating you at your birthday banquet. So? What do you want to say? It's just Wei who feints to go east while in reality attacking west and makes such a scheming plan. Now the state of Chu is the one that can compete with us throughout the country. In recent years, our army has launched large-scale eastward attacks on Zhao and Wei. The state of Chu can maintain its strength because it dominates in the south. Now, Wei persuaded us to attack Chu using the pretext of recovering the lost land of Song, so as to shift our strategic focus. The King of Wei proposed to work with us, a strong state, with the purpose of securing themselves rather than recovering the lost land of Song. We and Chu in the battle will surely be weakened, but Wei won't suffer any loss. Your Majesty, it's just my guess. Just forget it if you think it's unreasonable. No. What you said is very reasonable. I never thought from this perspective. Maybe you can help me remove a worry. The Qin army is not advancing eastward, but heading westward. Are they withdrawing? I think so. Why does the irresistible Qin army withdraw? It must be because the King of Qin gave an order. Or they will charge forward without hesitation even if there're immense dangers and difficulties. They must withdraw for some reason. Anyhow, a bloody battle can be avoided. It's such a delight. Exactly. Since the Qin army is withdrawing, why don't we take this chance to travel somewhere? Good. Mount Song is not far from here. My father has a practice hut there. How about staying there for some days? Mount Song is the central great mountain among the Five Mountains. Surrounded by mountains, it's close to Mount Tai in the east and Mount Hua in the west. Gathering the energy of all the mountains, it's indeed a good place for people to concentrate on cultivation. Your father really has a great vision. It's close to Mount Tai in the east and Mount Hua in the west. Mount Tai. it's also a good place. Since ancient times, the kings have held grand ceremonies of worship of heaven on Mount Tai. It's the gathering place of royal elements. But we rough travelers seldom visit Mount Tai. My father also thinks so. He said among the Five Mountains, he dislikes Mount Tai most. Those legendary emperors or sovereigns took their throne there. It's unbearably vulgar. Your father likes freedom, so it's reasonable for him to think so. But Mount Tai has a broad view. Standing imposing and regular, it's indeed a spiritual mountain, but… Mount Dai on the left and Mount Hua on the right. Mount Heng at the south and Mount Heng at the north Mount Dai on the left and Mount Hua on the right shake the world. Mount Heng at the south and Mount Heng at the north protect the peace. I've finally figured it out. Jing, what have you figured out? The swordsmanship manual is on Mount Song. Grandmaster led us to Mount Song. Here come His Majesty and Her Highness Concubine Li. Your Majesty. Don't stand on ceremony. Sit down first. Thank you. Serve tea. Concubine Li, taste the Yunmeng tangerine I prepared for you. Thank you. Your Majesty, I've long heard that Yunmeng tangerines from Chu are sweet and juicy. After tasting it today, I do feel it's sweeter than Huaibei trifoliate oranges. The Huaibei trifoliate orange looks simple and the same outside and inside. But some Yunmeng tangerines look beautiful outside but are decayed inside. I wonder whether it's somewhat similar to the customs and traditions of Chu in the south. You have such a good taste that you can even get something from the southern tangerine and northern trifoliate orange. Unfortunately, even if the Yunmeng tangerines in my home state Chu are sweet, the ongoing battle may affect their harvest. Grandma, you indeed invite me for this matter. Ruo, don't worry. A few days ago, I ordered troops of four commanderies, including Hedong and Nanyang, to withdraw. I'll ignore the land dispute between Wei and Chu. Really? It seems that you still cherish the friendship with Chu. I don't mean that. When I was worried about the threat from Chu and Wei armies some days ago, Li advised to me that my attack on Chu would benefit Han and Wei. This gives me a good reason to withdraw my army. And in early spring this year, it's dry and seldom rainy in our state. I was worried about the shortage of food and supplies. I didn't expect that when I ordered my army to withdraw, Chu voluntarily provided food and supplies to show their sincerity in making peace. So did Li do a great job? She indeed contributed to persuade Qin retreating from Chu. But since the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, concubines meddling in court affairs too much were mostly sources of trouble for the states. Going too far is not good. Please think twice. Grandma, do you remember I once said I wanted to choose an extraordinary woman like the Queen of King of the Shang Dynasty to be my queen? Yes. Concubine Li is good at both civil and martial arts, and far-sighted, so I decide to make her my queen. Your Majesty, why did you choose your queen and launch an attack so hastily? Not at all. I made this decision after careful consideration. I'm not interested in being your queen. Can't you see that? That's the post all other concubines long for. Why do you show no interest in it? If you become my queen, they wouldn't dare to bully you. I used to be ruthless because I didn't care about anyone or anything. But now it's different. I have her. She will be my only weakness. Your Majesty, because of this weakness, you can't be who you used to be? I'm the King of Qin. If I have a weakness, that would mean Qin also has a weakness. I don't want to be caught on my weakness. But I just can't control the desire to getting close to her.
