To protect Great Xia! Exactly! Exactly! The troops have all returned, why no news of Hua Zhao? Didn’t Jingmo send people to search already? Hua Zhao’s blessed with fortune. They say Qin Jingmo became the martial champion! You’ll live comfortably now! Jingmo’s a fine young man. This marriage favors our family. Hua Zhao must serve him dutifully. Your junior Qin Jingmo pays respects to elders. Rise, please. Jingmo, any news of Hua Zhao? No trace found yet of the soldier who disguised herself. She’s probably long dead. No! Impossible!

All these years you’ve supported us, we don’t deserve this. Yet you never refused before. Stop pretending now! Chen Ping! Uncle, Aunt, This is compensation from me. Compensation? Yes. I wish to break the engagement. Breaking off the engagement What’s going on here? Why is this happening? Your family’s kindness.. …to the Qin family saved us I will never forget it You were the one who.. …personally asked for Hua Zhao’s hand! Indeed That was then But now I am.. …the Emperor-appointed champion! I can’t marry a country bumpkin! You.. It’s just.. Your daughter has been in the army.. …for decades How can we be sure of her purity? How dare you ask us.. …to let our young master marry.. …a used woman? How dare you insult my son like that! All you talk about is your son Old man, don’t forget.. The Hua family line ends with you! Hahahaha.. My daughter is loyal and filial.. …a remarkable woman of this era She’s better than any man! Hahaha.. That country bumpkin.. …isn’t fit to shine Miss Hua Ling’s shoes! Who is Miss Hua Ling? Miss Hua Ling is General Zhenwei’s.. …Hua Zhao’s younger sister The General thinks highly of me.. …and will give me his daughter in marriage You.. You’re a disgrace! Who does he think he is? So, he’s found a better match Jing Mo, Auntie begs you.. …don’t break off the engagement! Don’t beg him!

Impressive skills Perfect timing for your return Sign the annulment papers I heard everything You’re breaking off our engagement to marry General Zhenwei’s sister Hua Zhao? Yes The General honors me He betrothed his sister to me I never cared for needlework Only martial arts They say I’m no virtuous lady Yet you defied your family’s wishes to marry me I thought you were noble and untainted A worthy man to entrust my life to Never imagined you’d stoop so low I was shortsighted before Didn’t know there’s always someone greater Miss Hua Ling’s grace and wisdom outshine all virtues With a brother who commands the empire’s armies Only such a woman deserves Qin Jingmo I returned expecting to finalize our wedding What a pity Don’t blame me for this No man resists power’s allure Miss Hua Ling convinced her brother to make me martial champion And you? What can you possibly offer me? You bring only shame A decade in the army yet never heard of General Hua Zhao having a sister Ignorant fool! Miss Hua Ling was raised properly unlike your crude understanding Exactly! Ten years in the army? How shameless! You dare mention that? Tell me Should I, Qin Jingmo, martial champion reject noble ladies and marry a woman any man can have? You insolent brat! You— Well said! Well said Miss Hualing Ling’er What brings you here? I fear that you are harassed by these vulgar commoners You’re Jingmo’s cross-dressing ex-fiancée who infiltrated the barracks! Yes, that’s her! She’s been shamelessly pursuing our young master for marriage! Preposterous! A disgraceful old hag like you isn’t worthy of the Emperor’s top martial scholar! And you are? I’m the Zhenwei General’s blood sister! Qin Jingmo’s betrothed! Brother.. When will you return? Brother! Brother! If you ever face trouble bring this jade pendant to me Oh So you’re Huazhao’s sister? How dare you! Address my brother so casually! Kneel and kowtow to the young mistress! You want my kneel? She can’t handle the consequences! Outrageous! Even as a general’s sister you can’t bully others! Lay a finger on Huazhao I dare Try! Your name.. Huazhao? A peasant woman sharing my brother’s name?! Change your name! This is tyranny! Where’s the justice?! The law? My brother’s the Emperor’s Zhenwei Marquis! His future bride is the Emperor’s own sister— Princess Weiyang! Ministers bow to my brother! Princes yield to his authority! The law here is the Hua family’s word! The esteemed sister of General Zhenwei Hua Ling Do you remember the heroic general who died for our nation? Hua Hongchang I know no Hua Hongchang My brother is General Hua Zhao of Zhenwei Ungrateful wretch! You disgrace your ancestors! You’re unworthy of his noble spirit Shut up! How dare you speak to Lady Hua Ling with such insolence! I know you envy her noble birth Hence your vile words Some are born phoenixes not common hens like you to judge Qin Jingmo I thought you were just a social climber Never imagined you’re also blind and foolish Yes I was blind when I foolishly got engaged to you, madwoman Now I’ve awakened to seek better prospects and a worthy match Jingmo speaks truth If you have any decency left sign the annulment now Or else my brother will have you all thrown in prison It seems this annulment must be signed Guards! Wise choice Name your terms I’ll accept them all What are you doing? Breaking the engagement is fine but you don’t get to decide this Disgraceful conduct Huazhao How dare you humiliate me like this? Don’t you want.. Then by order of seniority Miss Hua should call me sister first You.. Jingmo Three days later is my martial champion inauguration and wedding with Hua Ling When the time comes I’ll let you see something grand Indeed, my brother will come celebrate with me Such a grand event If certain people miss it they’ll never see its like again You.. All of you.. An occasion this grand If I don’t attend I’ll regret it forever Huazhao will be there Fine, fine! See that you don’t run away when the time comes Let’s go Father, Mother Your daughter failed you making you endure such shame I deserve to die Get up now It’s not your fault You’re the kindest, most filial child This is all my fault Of course it’s your fault If you hadn’t raised Zhao’er to be so martial why would she join the army for ten years? And this Qin Jingmo you chose as her fiancé Yet.. he turned out to be this ungrateful wretch It’s all my fault？ Initially I picked Old Wu’s boy from the village That fair-skinned lad with delicate features Our daughter could’ve controlled him But he turned out to be a noble’s lost heir Once reclaimed by his family how could we match their status? Still.. Father! Mother! I’m hungry My child loves pancakes I’ll make some now Go, quickly! Young Mistress What’s this spear made of? It’s so heavy! Let me My child’s truly majestic Is everything ready? All is in order Rest assured, my lady Excellent That Hua Chao..

Huazhao Today is my son’s wedding day Stop making a scene! The broken engagement isn’t our fault You infiltrated the army disguised as a man A daughter-in-law like you is not welcome here I wanted to spare your dignity You’ve deceived the army for ten years! This time you survived but how many men have you slept with? You’re practically public property! Instead of feeling ashamed you’re proud of it? By ancestral law I should’ve drowned you at birth How dare you show off now! Exactly! Exactly! Who’d want damaged goods like her? A woman who breaks virtue deserves to drown in a pig cage! Drown her! How dare you! Please calm down Huazhao Leave now or you won’t make it back alive Big bowls are more satisfying Not to mention we nearly became sisters Given my bond with your brother and our comradeship I deserve wedding wine Nonsense! The General’s status would never ally with you This woman’s insane! Get out! Get out! Who do you think you are? to claim ties with my brother? Another word from you and I’ll have someone cut out your tongue! Now scram! Out! How dare you abuse the general like this！ What punishment do you deserve? How dare you! You— General？ Eunuch She’s just a madwoman Please, don’t be angered Indeed, Eunuch Pay her no mind Am I wrong? We both joined in Dingyou year— the Cook Battalion Though in different tents we’re still comrades-in-arms Do not insult the General! How ruthless, forgetting old friends once risen! Even the General’s no exception! You— Guards! Seize this madwoman! At once! Audacious! Who dares move? Fear not, Eunuch I’ll make her pay dearly Murder! Blinded by rage must you resort to killing? She’s just a servant! I’ll kill whom I please! Who can stop me? General’s jade pendant— Exactly! Xiao Lan alert the Garrison Commander— there’s an attempt on the General’s life! Bring the culprit to justice! Understood! Bar the gates! Don’t let that wretch escape! Panlong Group That butcher— Celebrating the Martial Champion’s wedding Tulu from Panlong Mountain Celebrating the Martial Champion’s wedding Panlong Mountain bandits What are we going to do now? Xirong people How did Yuncheng’s garrison fail this badly? We heard the Martial Champion’s getting married Tulu, brought a humble gift Does the Champion find it acceptable? That Tulu Today’s my son’s wedding celebration How dare you bring a coffin here! Are you cursing my son? Mere bandits Cease this insolence! You dare ruin my wedding feast? I’ll raze your mountain stronghold! That general you sent last time to attack our stronghold His head still hangs at our gate Still fresh Care to go check? Young master They’re bandits in name only In truth, they’re Xirong frontier garrison troops These Xirong are ruthless killers They commit every atrocity Even the Governor must kowtow and treat them politely We can’t afford to provoke them What should we do? Today’s my wedding day I’ll let you off this time Leave now! Coward Leaving? Not happening I’m here to steal the bride! I’m here to claim the bride today Central Plains women are tender and fair The sister of the great general.. I wonder how she tastes How dare you! Audacious fool! Insult my wife again and I’ll spill your blood here today Now get lost! Don’t rush, Number One Scholar By our Xirong customs bride-claiming rules say: If you defeat me then.. All my wealth.. and my very life.. shall be yours A wedding gift for you But if you lose to me Everything you own.. including this delicate bride.. shall become mine As for this coffin.. it’ll be your final rest Son, this isn’t a contest.. It’s a fight to the death! You mustn’t accept this! Jingmo, ignore him Wait for the garrison commander Too scared to fight? Is this the great warrior.. your Xia Empire chose? A man cowardly as a rat.. cowering before battle! Does your Emperor.. lack discernment? Or are all Central Plains folk.. spineless cowards? How dare you! You dare defy the Emperor? Do you think Daxia has no warriors left? The Martial Arts Champion Can’t defeat a mere barbarian? Fight him! You barbarians go too far! Bring me my spear! You’ve got nerve With your feeble frame I’ll give you three moves Taste my spear! Three moves are up What’s wrong with the Champion? Is he even competent? Jingmo All flash, no substance Someone like you became Champion? Is this the quality of Daxia’s warriors? Then crushing Daxia and conquering the realm is imminent! Release him Let him go? You drew your weapon now accept defeat Jingmo Son So you finally made your move I thought the Grand General would keep watching like a spectator We still have our Grand General! The God of War protects Great Xia With him here these barbarians mean nothing Exactly! The Grand General could hold the pass against ten thousand! I’ve heard tales of the God of War Today I’ll grant you one final chance If your General defeats me I’ll spare this Martial Champion My brother’s still recovering Challenging him now is taking cowardly advantage! Since the General’s injured I won’t force the fight But this champion’s life is now forfeit From today I’ll be the God of War’s brother-in-law! (Manic laughter) Grand General! He’s my only son! I beg you— save my child! Do it for your sister’s sake! You must intervene! Grand General! Today’s my brother’s wedding! Start the bridal music! Don’t blame me, Champion Your precious bride chose to save her brother over saving you Hualing! Help me! Halt! Hualing begs her brother to intervene Save my husband’s life Understood Jingmo Pray Wei Yi can hold on until the garrison commander arrives Or all will be lost Long have I heard of the general- Whose spear dances like a celestial dragon Sundering nations with nine strikes Now this butcher comes to teach? Disaster! The general is losing! General! He wields his spear like a poker Not even one-tenth of my brother’s skill! Is this the so-called undefeatable God of War you praised? Pathetically weak! This ‘God of War’ title must be empty boasts! My brother is gravely wounded How can he match you? You’ve crossed all boundaries! Aren’t you afraid when my brother recovers he’ll march west and crush you? Hualing speaks truth Cease this madness now lest you bring ruin upon your kingdom! Kingdom’s fall! I once feared your general but now.. Now I see he’s but a feeble shrimp! Warriors! Hear me! Capture the general alive Raze the Scholar’s Mansion! For our eastern conquest we’ll trample the Central Plains! Let this be our war cry! What madness is this? Release my son! Thank you Thank you for saving my child Who are you? Your executioner Who are you? The one who’ll end you Quite the bold talk, little lady Do you know what happened to the last person who spoke to me like that? Do tell I gutted him stripped his tendons and hung his corpse on the city gates to dry For a delicate flower like you I’ll make it quick Let her stall them We’ll hold out until the Commander arrives If these barbarians eliminate Huazhao for us it’s two birds with one stone Done talking? Then let’s begin Enough talk Have at you! Desert smoke rises lone Rain scatters cold steel—impressive spearwork! Brother perhaps we should retreat No fortress can contain the worthy nor armies defy the White-Clad General You’re the Great Xia’s Zhenwei General! Grand Marshal Zhenwei The Grand Marshal is a woman? She’s actually female! This is unbelievable! Impossible! Huazhao, a mere woman— how could she be our Marshal? The real Marshal stands right here! Impossible! This can’t be true! Who would have thought the God of War of Daxia Empire is actually a woman? What a ludicrous joke! Brother Your mannerisms suggest you’re no common bandit I’ll give you one last chance— state your true identity General Natulu of Xirong chief envoy to Daxia I came to negotiate peace You dare kill me? The last man who said that was Prince Yelü Hongqi— a Xirong nobleman I pierced his heart with my spear You— I beg you, Marshal, show mercy! Spare my brother’s life! Huazhao! Killing foreign envoys is a capital offense! Everyone present here will die with you! I suggest you don’t make any rash moves This could lead to the execution of nine generations! Brother, you.. Cherish this chance for peace talks Otherwise if our nations go to war— the Daxia army doesn’t negotiate peace We only fight to the death Eldest Brother You’ll regret this! This rusty stick Huazhao what brings you here today? Shameless wench! How dare you impersonate my brother! You attacked Xirong’s envoy— such audacity! I’ve never hidden my name or lineage Why would I impersonate anyone? Still lying? We saw everything clearly The Xirong can’t accept defeat— claiming a peasant girl is our general? This slanders my brother and insults Daxia! Why don’t you explain? I knew it! The legendary general who conquered nations— couldn’t possibly be a woman! This is utter nonsense! Exactly! This deception is unforgivable! If this spreads— the whole realm will mock us! The world is ignorant Is a female general so shameful? How dare you ask? Women should bear children support your husband and raise children But you— chase glory and violence disguised yourself as a man! That’s treason! Now you even dare impersonate the general! Kneel and apologize to the general! Make me kneel? Is he worthy? My brother risked his life to save me and his severe injuries haven’t healed Now he’s wounded anew! You shameless ingrate! Instead of gratitude you repeatedly dare to disrespect him! What’s your true intention? A mere village woman dares speak so boldly? I’m the Emperor’s appointed Marquis! Am I not worthy of your kneeling respect? I kneel only thrice: To the Emperor to my parents and to our nation’s heroes As for you.. You deserve no such honor You.. Impudent shrew! This insolence knows no bounds! How dare you address the General Then teach me how should I speak? The General fought countless battles risking life and limb to secure Daxia’s peace! A wanton woman like you defiling our military camp should kowtow before him three times in respect! How dare you be so brazen? Exactly! Despite his grave injuries the General still saved us all He’s our undisputed hero! You lowly peasant dare insult our living legend? The General is the people’s warrior god worshipped throughout Daxia! Defile our sacred icon and death would be too merciful! Exactly Enough! This humble servant failed Please calm yourself, Eunuch Incompetent? Hardly! Your silver tongue’s unmatched Such wasted talent for a martial champion I don’t understand your meaning, Eunuch Do you realize who truly stands beside you now? That’s.. …General is here! I’m so sorry for the late welcome Lord Sun I’m Sun Zhe, Yuncheng garrison officer Greetings, General At ease Garrison officer It’s this peasant woman She disrupted my lady’s wedding and tried to assassinate the General! Oh So, it’s you You insolent woman! Do you know your crime? Lord Sun, are you convicting me based on one-sided words? By whose law is this decided? Law? Here, I am the law Everything is up to me Including your life Our soldiers fight valiantly defending our nation As the local governor I bear the heavy responsibility of guarding Yet, you enable evil oppressing the people Is that the law you speak of? What an eloquent, insolent woman! How dare you contradict me? Am I wrong? How dare you speak to the garrison officer like that? For such corrupt officials I’ll execute every single one If there’s a pair, I’ll execute both You.. You’re rebelling in front of the General! How dare you spout such nonsense? If I don’t punish you where is my authority? Sir This insolent woman has repeatedly.. …offended my brother and is audacious! She provoked and assassinated the Xirong envoy! This not only jeopardizes our relationship with Xirong but also ruins the reputation of the Great Xia Dynasty! If such rumors spread across the Five Regions and Ten Territories they’ll think there’s no one left in Xia Even a woman can be a general Then where is the dignity of Xia? Is this true? Yes You, a mere peasant woman dare to commit such a rebellious act! Guards! Stop! Lord Sun Sun Zhe is a small officer in a remote garrison He was misled mistaking elm for a pearl It’s understandable But you, Commandant Sun have seen the General’s true face Can’t you recognize which is the real General? During the conferment ceremony I had the honor of seeing the General How could I forget? Grand General, this old man pays his respects Grand Commandant My Lord My brother is gravely wounded and cannot reciprocate properly We beg your understanding No matter. The Grand General’s recovery takes priority Zhe’er, fetch the physician at once Yes, Father Why didn’t the Grand Commandant expose Wei Yi’s true identity? Grand General, this.. Grand Commandant Sun, she’s clearly— Ah, Eunuch Wang— The journey has wearied you Your mind must be addled The Grand General His aura rivals the gods themselves Among all men under heaven he stands peerless and unmatched How could you forget this? Grand Commandant Sun I’m but a lowly eunuch My words carry no weight You may silence me but can you also silence the Grand Princess’s tongue? Grand Princess？ Le’an Chancellor So this is where you and Huazhao grew up together? When I left this place I was but a green youth Yet decades later, it remains unchanged What’s she in her childhood look like Even then, she was a wild tomboy Every child in ten villages felt her fists at least once Chancellor yourself included Never! Urgent report! Your Highness the Western Rong envoys disrupted the Champion’s coronation feast They said the Grand General has injury What? Increase our pace! Compliance with orders Why is the Princess Royal here? Hah! To find the Grand General, of course Grand Commandant Sun, have you lost your senses? My old eyes do grow dim these days But the Princess Royal has eagle eyes She’ll spot the Grand General instantly Eunuch Wang What convenient dim-sightedness! Are you describing yourself or this official, Eunuch Wang? Are you implying we can’t distinguish the real Grand General’s identity? Grand Commandant Sun’s vision remains sharp He sees through masks like magic Even conjurers couldn’t match this Such penetrating insight puts my poor judgment to shame Enough with your sarcastic remarks! I’ll have your tongue for this! The Grand Commandant’s wisdom shines He’d never mistake the Grand General The Grand General’s majesty cannot be imitated by filthy impostors I beg to differ The mimicry was rather convincing Though the spear technique lacked finesse Ah, yes.. At the investiture ceremony His Majesty bestowed a black iron spear upon the Grand General May we see this weapon now? My sister’s wedding today— I didn’t bring it along No matter. Fetch it now We dignitaries have ample time to wait We’ll wait right here Patience.. First let’s deal with this woman then retrieve the spear Top Graduate You’ll handle this matter My thanks, Grand Commandant I’ll enforce the law without bias Huazhao Lower your voice— I can hear you fine You’ve broken womanly virtues disrupted the barracks defied imperial law By our dynasty’s statutes your crimes warrant death Take her outside to be executed by lingchi Guards! Who dares lay a finger on her? Her Royal Highness Your humble servant pays respects Princess This old minister greets Your Highness Your Highness How dare you! Kneel at once! This is Her Royal Highness! Even generals must bow before her! To disrespect the royal family— means death for nine generations! Don’t drag us into your suicidal defiance! Exactly! She’s kin to my household! What lowborn wretch are you to presume to chastise her? This lowly one is the new martial champion Qin Jingmo This insolent woman disregards proper hierarchy and oversteps her station! I feared she’d disrupt Your Highness’ enjoyment Hence my rash interference I beg Your Highness’ forgiveness So you’re Qin Jingmo— Huazhao’s former betrothed? I was Our engagement is dissolved Her actions today bear no relation to me Calm yourself, Princess Even His Majesty exempts her from kneeling Royal family members greet her with folded hands I feel no offense yet you presume to feel slighted for me? What?! Rise, everyone The guards said you were injured Do I look injured to you? Could it be.. she’s truly the Revered General? No This can’t be! Why are you here? I came to check on you And to see.. your and the Chancellor’s hometown The Chancellor’s from Yuncheng too You two are old acquaintances When we approached the city gates.. the guards claimed.. you’d been wounded by Xirong envoys It wasn’t me who got hurt It was that general State your identity Your Highness You must be exhausted.. Rest first at the garrison You claim.. to be the Revered General? Your humble servant.. pays respects to Your Highness Imperial guards! Restrain him Remove his mask Let me see who dares.. impersonate the General! Grand Marshal Sun My vision’s unclear Inspect him for me Is this the General? My old eyes fail me. Guards! Take him away! Draw and quarter him! Let this be a lesson. Anyone impersonating the General. . . …will meet the same fate. Take him away! Miss, help me! Miss! So, you’re the mastermind. Scholar, this is your wife. What should we do with her? Your Highness, I beg you! I know nothing. . . …of what she’s done! Even if I had 80 lives. . . …I wouldn’t dare do this! …such treasonous things. Please, Your Highness, one chance! I’ll divorce her immediately! Cut ties with her forever! Qin Jingmo, you. . . Your Highness. I didn’t do this on purpose! My brother is busy with the army. He couldn’t attend my wedding. I didn’t want to lose face. So I resorted to this. . . Look. This is my brother’s jade pendant. He gave it to me himself. Hua Ling. Do you remember. . . This comfortable life of yours. . . Who gave it to you? My brother, of course. My brother’s ten years of service. . . …brought peace to the land. Hua Zhao, what are you trying to say? Don’t think. . . …that with the Princess’s backing. . . …I’ll be afraid of you. As long as my brother is here. . . …she won’t abandon me. Still defiant in the face of death. Take her away! Like the fake General. . . …execute her. You can’t kill me. This woman. . . She also impersonated the General! Why aren’t you punishing her? Because she is the. . . …brother you speak of. What? She’s the Great General Zhenwei The Great General is actually a woman? This is unbelievable! Hahaha! Just a lone woman If you want to punish me go right ahead. Using such absurd excuses to deceive me— this is utterly ridiculous! Today I stand before you. Let’s see who dares touch me! If I lose even a finger, my brother will hold you accountable! Young Master. . . She seems dead serious. This might not be an act. Let’s wait and see. As loyal family members, we should show mercy where possible. Grand Marshal Sun Since when are you so merciful? What if I insist on punishing her? Yu Lin Guards! You can’t kill me! I’m from a loyal family! You mustn’t kill me! Release her. Hua Ling Hua Hongchang gave his life not for you to waste like this. Huazhao After we break through enemy lines, let’s swear brotherhood! Deal! Charge! Forward! Urgent report! 100 Xuanjia soldiers broke through. Only General Hua Hongchang lured enemies as bait, pierced by arrows, died a hero’s death. What? ! Brother. . . When will you come home? Brother! Brother! If you ever face trouble, bring the jade pendant to me. The pendant. . . My jade pendant! Our old promise is void. Ungrateful wretch! You should’ve eliminated her! Since you’re here, may I invite you to my residence for conversation? Lead the way. We bid farewell to Her Highness. Take these two prisoners away. They’ll serve greater purposes. Dinner is served! Your Highness… Prime Minister.. I’ve prepared some modest dishes and wine Please don’t mind the simplicity Huazhao and I are like sisters Please make yourself comfortable Yes Uncle… Aunt.. There’s no need for formalities Prime Minister This is your glorious homecoming Uncle… Aunt.. Do you recognize him? You’re.. You’re the Wu family’s boy! Ah! Yes! Indeed Fifteen years have passed How’s your health been? We’re doing well Oh! How time flies! Now you hold such high office When you left years ago.. Our Huazhao.. searched for you endlessly Never imagined.. You were so close as children Back in their childhood.. They were inseparable We almost arranged their marriage! Mother! Is this true? Hmm Then why now.. are you so distant? The Prime Minister’s nobility and my commoner status.. How could I presume familiarity? You’re lying through your teeth! You didn’t recognize me at all! Yet I knew you instantly Is the Prime Minister married? Mother! Your Highness.. I’ll take my leave now Let’s go What’s wrong with asking? Lower your voice! This is embarrassing!

These years Yuncheng’s grain funds the army The people suffer bitterly Lu Er, lack all else but have wealth This is how I aid the people— what little I can do You’ve done enough You flatter me, Chancellor You’re the Chancellor? Indeed This humble Shi Yong once Yuncheng’s centurion bows to the Chancellor I seek justice— please redress my grievance!

He’s the Emperor’s blood brother, Prince Rui Prince Rui.. The prince sent to Xirong as a hostage at three? Her Royal Highness the Princess! The Prime Minister arrives! The General approaches! All hail Her Royal Highness! At ease Do you know where we are? How dare you make a scene here! If you can come, why can’t I? By Grand Commandant’s order I’m hosting the Western Rong envoy’s banquet You filthy wretch— dare compare yourself to me? I’ll give you one chance— get out now or you’ll bleed out right here! Outrageous! A mere top scholar dares act this arrogantly? Your Highness don’t let this vile woman deceive you She joined the barracks at fifteen worked as a strategist and mastered the art of seducing men Now she’s climbed into the Prime Minister’s “bedwarmer”! Such a filthy creature has no place at today’s royal banquet Qin Jingmo, you should be a storyteller— wasting your talents here Silence! Today marks my first appearance before His Majesty I won’t let you ruin this! Grand Commandant this woman trespassed the state banquet I demand she be drawn and quartered as a warning! The martial champion flexes his power? You’d execute His Majesty’s general? People might think our Great Xia has changed rulers— renamed to Qin! When did I ever— Huazhao is the General？ Impossible The general is clearly a seven-foot-tall man She’s just a woman How could she be the general? Grand Commandant Say something! Audacious Huazhao! Today is the welcoming banquet for Xirong envoys By revealing your true self you intend to announce to the world that our Daxia’s God of War is a woman? You’re referring to Huazhao Today’s guest of honor is the Prime Minister’s fiancée Huazhao Since when did I not know? It’s not too late to learn now Interesting This is a state banquet Such an important occasion tolerate your antics here Your actions today are clearly malicious Exactly! If the Xirong envoys find out that Daxia’s revered general is a woman wouldn’t that be a joke? Guards! Remove this madwoman from the hall! How dare you! Since when has our Daxia dynasty allowed Minister Sun to give orders? Prince Rui Everything I’ve done is for Daxia’s sake This woman is no ordinary compliant woman Keeping her will bring disaster May I ask what my fiancée has done to make the Grand Commandant misjudge her so gravely? I should ask the Prime Minister: At such a crucial state banquet why bring this scheming woman to attend? What’s your agenda? The Emperor has arrived! Your Majesty We welcome Your Majesty’s auspicious presence Rise, my loyal subjects We thank Your Majesty’s boundless grace The General’s attire today has an air of elegance Your Majesty you must be mistaken This humble woman is Hua Zhao I am no general Still angry with me for revoking your military authority? Erasing your achievements General.. is just an empty title All I desire is peace across the land and prosperity for all Well said! What noble aspirations— peace and prosperity! The General’s magnanimity shames my ministers who seem to lack a gentleman’s tolerance Your Majesty The Grand Commandant has worked tirelessly After the banquet I shall reward him handsomely Your Majesty this success isn’t mine alone Thanks to the Martial Arts Champion assisting the envoys I gained crucial time to prepare this state banquet So you’re the General’s betrothed? Indeed A mere champion is unworthy of my General! By rights I should grant you a noble title What would be fitting.. First-Class Marquis of Loyalty and Valor! I humbly accept— Hold! General, do you find your title inadequate? Your Majesty My engagement with Top Scholar Qin was dissolved long ago He has made it clear he wants no connection with me Therefore I won’t burden him further No, it’s not like that! Huazhao I was influenced by Hualing’s manipulation That’s why I broke our engagement Without her interference my misunderstanding of you wouldn’t have grown so deep Give me another chance You’re an intelligent man You know spilled water cannot be gathered A woman like you disguised as a man in the military camp has spent ten years there This naturally raises suspicions I made the mistake common among men Innocence needs no defense guilt speaks for itself I’ll ask you one question: If I were just Huazhao would you still apologize? A petty person like you isn’t worth a fraction of the Prime Minister’s worth Huazhao why did you choose him back then? Perhaps in certain moments he resembled someone from the past Huazhao, I was truly wrong Give me another chance This time I’ll arrange a grand wedding procession for you It’s too late for regrets now Scum like you aren’t fit to polish Huazhao’s shoes Now I understand Qin Jingmo are you unaware how you earned your martial title? How dare you treat her this way! Guards! Drag him away Strip his titles and exile him to Lingnan Drag him out of here! Strip him of his titles! Exile him to Lingnan! Your Majesty, I was wrong Please forgive me! I know my mistake! Your Majesty The Western Rong envoys await outside Why not deal with him after the banquet? Enough! Take him away first! Huazhao, save me! Heaven’s wrath can be forgiven but man’s folly is inexcusable The banquet shall now commence! Summon the Western Rong envoys to the hall! We greet the Emperor How dare you! Why don’t you kneel before His Majesty? Western Rong is ordained by heaven supreme and peerless We don’t kneel to foreign rulers Outrageous! Great Xia is the Celestial Empire revered across all lands and seas as the supreme power How dare you barbarians utter such insolence and disrespect our Emperor! Enough! They’re mere savages What decorum can we expect? Take your seats at once Western Rong envoys you may be seated Not so fast Our king sent us with two purposes: First to congratulate Your Majesty’s birthday For this occasion our king prepared gifts for the Emperor of Xia Present them! Sky-shaking cannons! Divine crossbows! Chainmail armor! What? These are all weapons our Chancellor painstakingly crafted with master artisans over a decade How dare you possess them? This is impossible! Unless.. Xia has a traitor? Now, the second matter.. Our two nations The twenty-year truce has expired If Emperor Xia wants peace and prosperity to continue then surrender ten more cities to Xirong Perhaps we’ll grant another decade of respite Don’t think stealing our weapons makes Da Xia fear you Our Grand General guards the realm – all nations tremble at his name If you dare, come at us! Her? A woman? Leading your army? Has Da Xia no real men left? This mighty empire relies on a woman’s strength? Shame on you men outshone by a maiden! Pathetic laughingstock! Hiding behind skirts like cornered rats! Da Xia’s weakness is exposed Your arrogance blinds you Our cavalry will ride west and crush Xirong! Have you forgotten? Twenty years past we marched to your capital – drove your emperor fleeing took ten cities as tribute even threw in a prince to avoid annihilation! Silence! Well, well.. The useless hostage Da Xia’s lands have nourished you well Should our king see this pampered mutt he kept chained in kennels long ago! You’ll die for this! We’ll settle old and new scores! Protect the Emperor! You tyrant! Xiao Bai Second Brother She’s trying to silence us! Fight her with everything! Xiao Bai Thank General for the weapon schematics So it was you! Hua Zhao would never do this! The General fought against Xirong His merits are unmatched He’d never commit such treason! Your Majesty, please investigate! If not her, then who? Qin Jingmo was right about you Your Excellency! This seductress has clearly enchanted you! She approached you to steal the schematics! Sun Kuo, stop slandering me! Hua Zhao has served Xia with outstanding merit! How dare you defame her? Fine craftsmanship on this bow The technique suggests it’s made by Xia artisans Without precise schematics and skilled craftsmanship this couldn’t be replicated Are you suggesting Xirong spies stole these from Xia territory? Chancellor! If you keep shielding this traitor.. I’ll show no mercy! I have concrete evidence! Bring in the witness! Hua Ling greets His Majesty It’s you Le An, do you know this woman? Reporting, Royal Brother She impersonated the General’s sister I exposed her, then she vanished Never thought she’d fall into Sun Kuo’s hands Your Majesty I’ve always cared for Da Xia’s safety I felt this matter was inappropriate So I had her detained Unexpectedly I uncovered a shocking secret Hua Ling Tell His Majesty everything you know, in detail Your Majesty My brother was sworn brothers with Hua Zhao Hua Hongchang, of the Xuanjia Camp lured the enemy at the cost of himself the loyal general, Hua Hongchang Exactly My brother and this traitor were both from the Xuanjia Camp This traitor rose through the ranks with my brother’s help eventually becoming a General But these close comrades separated for some reason My brother was trapped by the enemy and died for our country Until I found this letter among my brother’s belongings It turns out that Hua Zhao was secretly colluding with the Xirong secretly passing our defense plans to the enemy After my brother discovered this he plotted my brother’s death I beg Your Majesty to punish this traitor and avenge my brother! Hua Zhao! How dare you! Royal brother, don’t listen to her lies! She’s just a liar! See for yourself! Isn’t this your handwriting? Yes This is impossible Do you have anything to say? I have nothing to say Guards! Hua Zhao is guilty of treason! The evidence is conclusive Take him to the death row! Your Majesty! Hua Zhao would never do such a thing! Please investigate thoroughly! Xiao Bai! Prime Minister! Hua Zhao! Greetings, Your Highness Step aside Your Highness, this traitor is highly skilled. Be careful! Huazhao, I’m here to rescue you How is Su Yibai? The arrow is poisoned The Chancellor remains unconscious Our top priority now is to get you to safety Le’an, listen to me I have an escape plan Su Yibai is in your hands now I’ll be waiting Since you’ve come this far why not join me inside? His Highness requests your presence As expected of the General Your perception is sharp Not as sharp as Prince Rui’s The mantis stalks the cicada unaware of the oriole behind Brilliant strategy You knew it was me all along That day in the throne hall Your Highness deliberately pushed me letting that barbarian strike If Your Highness sought regicide that would be understandable Brothers born of the same mother One became a hostage the other an emperor Anyone would resent such fate But what I fear is a secret substitution a covert replacement Am I right Second Prince of Xirong Kingdom What an impressive General What a remarkable Huazhao How does such a woman exist in this world? Let me reintroduce myself I am the Second Prince of Xirong Yelü Chenghui I assumed Zhao Changgong’s identity Spying in Daxia for nearly a decade You’re the first person to see through my disguise I’m curious how you recognized me Your Highness Prince Rui Taken to Xirong as hostage at age three Returned to Daxia at thirteen With my wet nurse as witness No one would doubt me We’ve never met before How could I know you? But in Yuncheng The assassin targeting Shi Yong Only took one move For me to recognize He’s your personal guard A Daxia royal prince Would never use Xirong servants Clever These Daxia fools are incompetent Burying true talent Why not discard the unworthy? Join my cause instead Not just a general’s position You could be imperial consort Your Highness, this is improper! This vulgar woman Is unfit to be consort I offer my kingdom as betrothal Will you pledge to Xirong? I’m unworthy of your favor Every fiber of Huazhao Was forged by Daxia Unless you tear me apart And remake me But then Would I still be Huazhao? How dare you! Ungrateful wretch! His Highness favors you A blessing for eight lifetimes A woman like you Isn’t even fit to Warm His Highness’ feet I wonder Minister Sun, a Daxia official Would serve Xirong’s interests Wise birds choose their roosts You wouldn’t understand Your Highness She’s Xirong’s greatest threat For our plans She must be eliminated I truly hate to kill you But with Su Yibai’s wisdom And Huazhao’s martial skill Unless we remove you both Xirong can’t conquer Central Plains Huazhao conspired with enemies Murdered loyal subjects Execution at noon tomorrow First-Rank Official overseeing execution Who is this person? Why such a grand spectacle? And a woman, no less What crime could she have committed? Huazhao Zhao’er Huazhao So you’ve finally met your end Kneel! Criminal Huazhao, kneel before the court! My life has been one of integrity I’ll die standing Never kneeling So be it Break her legs! Let’s see if she still refuses Useless! Huazhao I know your martial skills are unmatched When the ruler demands a subject’s death the subject must comply There’s no escape for you today Zhao’er May I ask, Your Honor what crimes has my child committed? General Huazhao of Zhenwei Army Impersonated a man Deceived the throne Conspired with foreign tribes Slaughtered loyal subjects Brought ruin to the nation Stripped of rank and title Sentenced to public execution Impossible! Zhao’er Zhao’er How could our general be a woman? The Great General is a woman How is this possible? This is absurd! How could our Great General be a woman? Huazhao You’ve deceived the people of Daxia for far too long! Citizens of Daxia She concealed her identity and infiltrated our ranks for over a decade Using underhanded tactics she schemed her way to generalship Such calculated ambition deserves the harshest punishment! A traitor like her Even death by a thousand cuts wouldn’t satisfy our fury! A warrior prefers death to disgrace! Though my daughter Huazhao is a woman she’s trained in martial arts since childhood Her courage and passion rival any man’s! My daughter Huazhao has brought stability to our nation dedicated heart and soul You corrupt official! Your slander won’t tarnish her legacy Exactly! Well said! Absolutely correct! What’s wrong with being a woman? Women too can love their country Indeed! Without the General’s bravery and brilliant strategies we’d have perished long ago Right! True! Huazhao disguised as a man and took her father’s place – that’s filial piety Unyielding loyalty and tireless service define true devotion Such loyalty and filial virtue make her our role model! She’s our undisputed War Goddess Exactly! Her gender changes nothing She’ll always be the War Goddess in our hearts Yes, absolutely! You ignorant fool! Huazhao colluded with enemies betrayed our troops sold defense plans and killed loyalists She seduced the Prime Minister This treasonous snake is unworthy of being Daxia’s War Goddess Lies! Heaven sees the truth My child served loyally She’d never commit such crimes! Zhao’er The evidence is irrefutable No more excuses Huazhao What say you now? False charges need no justification The execution hour approaches I wonder if His Highness succeeded.. Your Highness Attack! Your Majesty A grave matter has occurred! Prince Rui’s troops are storming the palace gates! Traitorous scum! I’ll bring back his head! Your Royal Highness, please— don’t complicate matters further! The Chancellor lies unconscious the General marches to execution to be beheaded at once! What are we to do now?! Your Majesty we must flee for our lives! To flee without battle abandoning our Xia subjects— is no act of the Zhao lineage! As long as the mountain stands there will be firewood to burn! Le’an take this decree to Huazhao This sister swears to— rescue the General before high noon! Wang Jinzhong! At your service! Escort the Princess through the secret passage! By your command! Imperial Brother! Wait for my return to save you! Princess, hurry! Your Majesty! Sent away? Yes Your Majesty this old servant remains! Through life and death— I’ll follow you to the bitter end! Hahaha Excellent! Dear Brother! How fares your Dragon Throne? Zhao’er At the Battle of Banyang Slope The Grand General Led 800 cavalrymen deep into enemy territory Set their encampments ablaze During the Yanmen Pass campaign 300,000 northern troops besieged the city The Grand General answered duty’s call Turned the tide against all odds At the Helan Mountain battle The Grand General was surrounded Led his shirtless warriors Carved a bloody path through the enemy Took multiple arrows himself Yet you claim This is the act of a traitor? I, Shi Yong, will never believe that! Nor will I! Are you trying to rebel? For over a decade on the battlefield With a clear conscience towards heaven And blameless before earth Acted with integrity among men Uphold honor in my heart Still defiant before execution? Where are the executioners? Proceed with the execution Zhao’er Release the Grand General! Hua Zhao, wait for me! Executioner, strike now! Zhao’er Forgive me, Grand General Spare the Grand General! Hua Zhao Guards! Protect the Emperor at once! Zhao Changgong! Are you plotting treason? Protect the Emperor! Brother Emperor.. How comfortable is the Dragon Throne? Should I address you as— the Second Prince of Xirong? Hahaha! I underestimated you Pity that— This realization comes too late Your right-hand men— I’ve already severed them Even the gods themselves— Couldn’t reverse this now Yelu Chenghui! You’ve spent ten years— Posing as my brother— Infiltrating Great Xia! What meticulous scheming! Now you understand Step down from the throne! And kneel before me! Sun Zhe, Yuncheng Garrison Commander— Liu Su, Vice Minister of War— Li Lü, Minister of Rites— Even our Grand Commandant— All became your pawns! Xirong’s chess pieces! Your schemes— I saw through them all Yet I chose to believe— In our bond as ruler— And subjects— And sworn brothers! But you.. Still betrayed me! What a shame Shame about what? Don’t heed his lies, Your Highness! General Hua Zhao has been executed— Chancellor Su Yibai— Lies poisoned and comatose! At this critical hour— Who can save them now? They’re just making their last stand Hahaha! Your Xirong’s Qianji poison— Is potent indeed Kills victims in their sleep But how could you know— If Su Yibai truly perished? He wasn’t poisoned— Thanks to Second Prince’s— Mercy! How could you.. How could you not be poisoned, right? Have you forgotten— Who invented the chainmail armor? Your arrow wound was but an act! Your arrow injury was an act How come.. Only Your Highness gets to play pretend? Am I forbidden from acting? Su Yibai, the prodigy— Honored as the greatest prodigy in a millennium’s history A strategic genius with unparalleled wisdom Then tell me— how did you end up in this state? Your Highness is right They’re now merely cornered beasts In military strategy he’s not one in 10,000th of Your Highness Indeed I’ve always loathed his pretentious posturing act All bark and no bite— mere empty show Su Yibai, surrender now and His Highness will grant you dignity in death With vermin like you corrupting the court how can Great Xia know peace? The people’s will aligns with the inevitable tide Su Yibai I acknowledge you as a once-in-a-millennium mind Just as I offered Huazhao a chance to submit I now extend this offer to you: Swear loyalty to Xirong and I’ll grant you wealth and status. My heirs shall honor you as royal mentor Tempting offer.. But know this— My bones are forged by Great Xia’s soil my soul shaped by its legacy Till my last breath I remain Han’s loyal servant Every fiber of Huazhao’s being is Great Xia’s creation To remake her you’d need to break and rebuild Tell me— would that still be your desired Huazhao? Hmph Su Yibai you stubborn fool! With Huazhao gone a mere scholar like you has no savior left Perish! Dare touch my people— who granted you this audacity?! Dare to touch my people? Who gave you the audacity? You’re supposed to be dead Those who dare invade Great Xia will not escape justice Impossible! The execution hour has passed You should be executed by now Where’s my father? Him?.. He met his end by my blade long ago You.. You killed him! Why keep such traitors alive? Should I save them for the New Year? This whole thing.. You’ve all conspired together in this elaborate charade! None can match Second Prince’s wisdom Who would’ve thought.. the Western Rong laid such an intricate trap? Yelu Chenghui infiltrated us for ten years Who knows how many spies he planted in the court? If we don’t eliminate them all now disaster will follow Do you have a plan? When we return to the capital I’ll need your help to stage another act Guards! Protect His Majesty! Qin Jingmo was right Chancellor.. You’ve truly been enchanted by this seductress! She approached you for these weapon blueprints Guards! Huazhao is guilty of treason The evidence is irrefutable Take her to the execution block! Forgive this injustice Well done Brilliant! Your coordination was flawless I found no trace of it Though I stationed troops around the execution ground How did you escape? In wisdom I pale before the Chancellor In strategy I lag behind Second Prince But in military tactics.. Who else but me? Executioner! Proceed immediately! Zhao’er! My apologies, Grand General General! Huazhao! Dare to rescue prisoners? Capture them all! Xuanjia Battalion warriors salute the Grand General! At ease By General’s order Xuanjia Battalion deployed ambushes at three cardinal points When Xirong forces entered we closed the encirclement Within a quarter hour they were completely routed Impressive! You planned this all along All hail the Grand General! Father, Mother It’s my fault I’ve alarmed you again Rise quickly now, Chao Well done indeed Father, Mother, I have urgent matters I’ll fulfill my filial duties upon return Very well Great General! Great General! Men! Follow me to the palace Slay the traitors! Kill! Kill! Kill! Great General! Great General! Kill! So you’re saying I’m now trapped like a rat in a jar? You could say that Welcome to the trap, Your Highness Hahaha! Truly destroying both body and spirit But losing to you is no shame If there’s another life May we stand on the same side Chang Gong Let’s be brothers again in the next life Chang Gong Sun Zhe, Yuncheng Garrison Commander Liu Su, Vice Minister of War Li Lü, Minister of Rites Forming factions for personal gain Colluding with foreign powers Sentenced to death by lingchi Exterminate their nine clans Your Majesty, have mercy! Her Highness the Princess protected the throne Now titled Guardian Princess of the Realm Granted a fief of ten thousand households Thank Your Majesty In quelling this rebellion And eliminating Western Rong spies The Chancellor and General deserve full credit But one already heads the civil officials The other leads the military How shall I reward you both? Imperial Brother Just arrange their marriage already Is this truly what you both desire? Your servant Su Yibai Has long admired the General Begs Your Majesty’s approval This.. Minister, do you object? Your Majesty The General and Chancellor Have served crown and country tirelessly This is plain for all to see Long journeys test a horse’s strength Time reveals true character Their combined power is immense Scholars and warriors across the land All follow their lead Should they unite They might harbor treasonous ambitions Then.. Your Majesty’s throne Would be in grave peril What say you both to this? I’ll resign as Chancellor And leave court forever Look at yourself Where’s the ambitious youth Who aspired to touch the clouds? Have you forgotten Your vow to uphold heaven’s will And protect the people’s welfare? Heaven sends rain Mothers remarry Some things can’t be stopped This is what you learned in the barracks? I’ll guard our borders till death No barbarian shall enter Great Xia We implore Your Majesty To bless our union We beg Your Majesty’s blessing You’ve even changed how you address me What choice remains?
