I did this to save us all.
After all I did- No. It's pointless. Leave.
The door is always open, Mengde.
The rest of Cao Cao's warriors were more than willing to move on. Sure, their liege was betrayed - but their deeds will live on and it's not like their new employer is an unproven ruler.
I know your father.
What does it matter?
EVERYTHING IN ITS ENTIRETY!
W-what?!
You think I desire this? Your father's arrogance forced my hand! The coalition would've slowly destroyed us all!
Ah, cowardice. The perfect excuse for traitors.
Spare me. You were never there with us. With the rest of the men!
How dare you my father and I-
Your father was content to leave everything to me. I saw a problem and THIS is the solution
Had you the foresight and intellect to solve it, you would've intervened before this faithful servant had to commit treachery to save your father's kingdom!
Please do all you can to make your father understand this too.
It will be difficult. But I shall try.
Xun Yu, the Benevolent Scholar forgave Difen's revolt.
Welcome back, War Minister.
I've misjudged you. This servant is ready to serve again once more.
Good. Is there any more outstanding prisoners I need to deal with directly? I've already secured the services of the Xiahou Brothers.
This may seem awkward, but I've stumbled upon a rare beauty while being transferred to my cell.
Excuse me?
Milord, this woman is young and she possess grace and beauty.
What are you insinuating?
Nothing untoward. She is blameless. Just an unfortunate person caught in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Then, I'll go see her right now.
I'll see you at Puyang then.
Milord. I depart.
Isn't she a beauty?
Yes. Can we move on?
Well, one of the newest scholar is proving to be quite exceptional.
What's his name? Don't we have you and Guo Jia already?
He hails from a famed merchant clan, his name is Sima Yi, a master of stratagems and negotiations.
Then he's the kind of person we need to tell Sun Ce to back off.
Understood. Milord, with this, peace in Central Plains can be achieved.
Yeah. That's good to hear.
Best of luck between you and Bu Lianshi
The court congratulates Grand Minister Shi Difen and wishes him a long and prosperous life!
Congratulations. You've made it.
Yeah, it's been a long way since Shangdang.
Indeed, brothers.
Come, let us feast!
Everyone! We must celebrate! Summon the KFC! The Umakara flavored chicken will be here soon!
