\f0\fs24 \cf0 Fellow villagers! If you want to kill me, please wait until i have buried
my mother!\ No way!\
\ The Qing soldiers are coming!\
\ Official Fan! \
\ Your Majesty!\
My mother has committed suicide\'85\ \
I have let you down..\ \
My mother said, the 8 banner troops in Qinglong Village\'85.\
\ Villagers, come here. I have something to
say.\ \
Dear villagers, i can see in your eyes that you hate me, my army and my Qing Dynasty\
\ I know killing is bad, even more so the killing
of innocent villagers.\ \
But do you know that, our mountains are also full of innocent people.\
\ Our widowers and orphans are no less than
yours!\ \
We are forced by this decaying Ming Dynasty government and corrupt officials who push
us to use violence!\ \
My late father and emperor consolidated our clans and formed the Manchu people. We started
our army for a revolution, to repay killing with killing!\
\ \
This killing, i hate too. \ Not only that, i will restore a world of peace
and prosperity.\ \
Before that happens, i will apologize to the people of this village.\
\ I hereby announce that within 10LI radius
of this village, the Qing army will not invade.\ \
Dear villagers, even though the country may be at war, you will be at PEACE from here
on end!\ \
Mother Fan, Your son is not a traitor. He is a scholar and my good official\
\ He will bring honor to your family.\
\ I thank you!\
\ Mother Fan, I don't have incense, nor wine
to offer you. \ \
Your Majesty!!!\ \
I can only offer you 3 drops of my blood!\ \
I will wait for you at the road junction.\ \
Your Majesty!!!!!!!!!!\ \
