Nirvana in Fire: The Wind Blows in Chang Lin (Nirvana in Fire 2 / 琅琊榜之风起长林)

Hurry!

Coming!

Hurry up!

The water is on its way!

Quick, put it out with water!

His Imperial Highness Crown Prince...

Hurry up!

Hurry, hurry!

Your majesty!

Your majesty!

Your Lady Majesty, please wear these first.

Your Lady Majesty! Your Lady Majesty!

Go and continue to get water! Hurry! Keep up!

Hurry! Where is the water?!

Water! Hurry!

Quick, put the fire out!

Hurry and keep up!

Step aside!

Are you alright, your Highness?

I am alright.

Come!

Hurry and go.

Move faster!

Investigate it well.

Yes, sir.

Brother Xun, what happened?

It is not clear. It could be an accident.

Thankfully, it was discovered in time. The fire was not big and there were no fatalities.

How is the Crown Prince?

He is in Empress' Xipei Hall.

It is middle of the night. How did you get in?

The previous emperor gave this to my royal father, so he can enter the palace without reporting.

But he has never used this before.

The Crown Prince must have had a big scare. I will pay him a visit.

Visit the Crown Prince?

Do you know why the Elder Prince has never used this badge?

The graces of the former emperor is indeed paramount honor, but it is only just honor.

Things like that where you can enter the palace without being called for, no need for permission, and enter whenever you want,

Cannot be really used!

I am not using it anytime I wish.

But an incident has occured inside the palace. How can Chang Lin Manor not care?

If your elder brother were here, he would certainly not take such a risk.

While no one has yet spotted you, get out!

If you are worried about the Crown Prince, request a visit tomorrow.

Hurry, leave!

Hurry!

Hurry up!

How come something like this happen in the Eastern Palace?

Explain yourselves to me!

Replying to Your Lady Majesty, we currently are strictly investigating it. We still have no conclusion.

Most likely, it was a careless mistake of sleepy palace maid.

Sleepy and careless?!

Men!

Your Lady Majesty.

Execute everyone who was on duty tonight.

Your Lady Majesty, I fear that we should still punish according to the degree of their crime.

The Eastern Palace encountered danger. The person behind this cannot be spared!

Carry out my instructions!

After it is done, there is no need to inform the Crown Prince.

Understood.

Pingjing, pays his respects to his Majesty.

Pingjing

Come closer. Come over to speak.

Thank you, your Majesty.

Have you visited Yuan Shi?

Yes. His Highness is brave. He received a shock yesterday night.

This morning when I visited him, he has almost recovered.

That's good.

But...

What's the matter?

The Eastern Palace is responsible for the Crown Prince's safety.

But there were two shifts that night, with 37 people in total.

To execute them all, is it not too extreme?

Execute them all?

It is the Empress?

The Empress is anxious over the Crown Prince. She did it in anger, it is understandable.

Yes, I will send someone to restrain the Empress.

Customers, please come in

The Eastern Palace needs time for repairs.

For his safety, the Crown Princ

should temporary lodge in Taiqing Palace.

I trust your arrangements.

Let him transfer to Taiqing Palace then.

Your Lady Majesty, His Majesty sent a verbal decree that for all the servants in the Eastern Palace last night,

may Your Lady Majesty allow first the Officer of the Inner Palace to assess their crimes and punish them according to our law.

His Majesty has always left me alone in managing the inner palace.

How come he is interfering now?

Who is waggling their tongue to the King?

Your servant will find out.

No need.

It was me who asked mercy from His Majesty.

You...

I think that Imperial Highness Crown Prince has quite a gentle temperament.

I am sure that will not like Your Lady Majesty getting angry like this in his behalf.

Excuse me, your Majesty, High Priest Pu seeks an audience. Yes.

Yes.

Your Majesty, if you have no further instruction, I will take my leave.

Your Majesty, something terrible is happening.

High Priest has always been composed. What is wrong with you today?

I have successively seen abnormalities in the stars and sky,

but I did not dare make any conclusions because it concerns grave matters.

Today, after being guided by Baishen, I already confirmed it to be true.

What matter have you confirmed to be true?

The Crown Prince has a great difficulty.

Explain!

Your Lady Majesty, think about it carefully. The security of the Eastern Palace is very tight.

But last night, a fire still accidentally broke out. That is a premonition for a huge disaster.

The brightness of the purple star is being suppressed by the general star for quite a long time.

A few months ago, there were suggestions of a possible collapse of both gold and land--

Don't say these cryptic words.

What does the White Spirit say? Just say it directly!

The imperial blood line will soon get severed. I fear that His Imperial Highness Crown Prince's life is in danger.

How dare you!

You dare to curse the Crown Prince like that?!

You think that because you are the respected high priest, I will not dare to kill you?!

Don't be angry, Your Majesty, let me finish.

Since I am able to see and understand astrological patterns,

it then proves that the heaven has intentions of showing mercy.

Intentions of showing mercy?

You mean....Crown Prince is cursed, but there is a cure?

Indeed. The disaster of His Imperial Highness was forced to happen by the general star.

It is against the law of the heaven, so there will naturally be a survival door left open.

Where is the survival door?

I can perform sorcery

to beg for Baishen to provide blessings and transfer the ominous fortune of Crown Prince to somebody else.

Let other people bear it for him.

But...

But what?

But the life of the Crown Prince is as important as the world.

If we are to evaluate it based on the value of the life of an ordinary citizen,

we will at least need thousands of people.

What really is Puyang Ying plotting?

Your Lady Majesty clearly knows that

if His Majesty learns about the method of overcoming disaster that I told you about earlier,

I fear that by tomorrow, I'll get dragged out of the imperial city

and undergo the fire punishment for the crime of being an evil monster.

I risked danger to my life to inform you about it,

yet Your Lady Majesty is being this hesitant.

Could it be that you do not trust me?

High Priest is able to understand the will of the heaven. You have never been wrong.

Of course, I am willing to trust you.

It is just that...

It is just that what?

It is just like what you have said, His Majesty...

will not believe it. Not only him,

even my own older brother...

If His Majesty lose the Crown Prince, he still has second and third prince.

But how about you, Your Lady Majesty?

It is hard to do this matter covertly. I have thought about it for your sake.

The trip of His Majesty to Wei Mountain to fast

is the best opportunity.

Your Lady Majesty, if we miss out on this good opportunity,

we will never have any other chance.

My son...

My son...

Your Lady Majesty, there is not much time. May you immediately make a decision.

Can I set an altar for Crown Prince to reverse his ominous fate?

Young Prince, lately, if you are not practicing martial arts all day,

you would secretly go out of the manor alone.

You would not have gotten yourself involved in something, right?

Uncle Tai.

Right now, I am still not qualified to get involved in any matter.

I just...

have not made a decision yet.

What decision?

Decide on whose side

I am standing with in the future.

I know that my choices are not that much.

But even if I do become someone else's pawn,

I hope that this person that will play me is reliable.

I do not want to give my future to the hands of an insane person.

After several on site investigations, I think Chixia Town is the best location.

It has more than a thousand population and their main source of income is thru selling stone carvings.

The town was built on the side of a mountain, so it is quite sealed off. It is easy to enforce control over it.

More importantly, it is quite near Jinling City.

But lord, even if the whole plan will progress successfully,

it will still eventually get connected you.

I fear that it will be hard to you then to openly stay here in Jinling City anymore.

So what?

We both came here to Jinling

not to seek a bright future.

Is it not to let our enemies

taste the sufferings we went through before?

Yes.

If not because little sister came to chat with me,

I will already get sick from boredom.

It is rare to see Second Young Master being able to quiet down like this.

That is right. He said that

it is not really his intention to always bring his father trouble.

He just cannot help but to commit some mistakes.

If he will not try to understand how his older brother do things,

he might not be able to provide any help to the family in the future. That's why, he is currently diligently studying for it.

I have always thought that Second Young Master loves the carefree of jianghu and have no interest in government management.

If he has no interest, no one can force him.

But if he has one, his older brother will surely be happy.

Where could Pingzhang and royal father be now?

Calculating their travel, they should have reached Yuanzhou by now.

Next, they will already be parting ways.

So, you can hear us. Why did you not say so earlier?

Do you know basic etiquette or not?
