Cloned: The Recreator Chronicles

-The a The army is of to war.

-The a on the march again.

They're of to war again.

You know who's leading the troops?

Sir Tu'an Gu, surely.

No. General Zhao Shuo has taken over.

l was taking his wife's pulse

when l heard the news.

She's pretty.

Very pretty.

You took the pulse of Lady Zhuangji?

No way.

lt's true.

You saw she's pregnant?

They couldnt work out when she's due.

So they called me in.

She shouldn't be riding in a carriage

lt could hurt the baby.

l said l'd treat you when l reoovered.

Let's go for a drink.

My wife's due as well.

l should stay with her.

After the birth, drinks are on me.

Thank you.

Grand Councilor Zhao Dun!

General Zhao Shuo!

Lady Zhuangji!

What's my sister doing here?

A woman of the royal family

is about to give birth to a Zhao.

once he's born...

l'll be his uncle

Zhao Dun is Grand Councilor

His son is of to war,

and will return a hero.

How enviable!

Even l'm envious!

lf l'd known...

l'd have married her to you.

Then l'd be jealous of you.

Go to battle, fine.

Why put your heavily pregnant wife

on show, for the whole town to see?

A woman about to give birth,

seeing her husband of to war...

Who wouldn't be moved?

And she's the elder sister of the king.

lsn't it really just telling the world

that the Zhaos are in charge?

Brother-The ain-The claw

l've come to see you of.

Zhao Shuo, l can see...

Sister cares more about you

than she does about me.

The general is of to war,

and all you do is joke around.

Everyone's saying

you should be in command

The king's sister

should've been married to you.

You tease.

They forgot my contribution long ago.

When you return,

we'll drink to your victory

l'll prepare the wine.

The Grand Councilor

will prepare the wine.

-The a Sir Tu'an.

-The a Present.

When Zhao Shuo returns victorious,

what will you give him?

Felicitations

on your imminent fatherhood.

You, Milady,

are the most fortunate of women.

Who'd have thought his very first battle

would go so well?

Wasn't that your hope?

Why aren't they here yet?

M'Lord, when General Zhao

rode into town,

the townspeople thronged to welcome him.

They'll be some time.

We've won! We've won!

Grand Councilor!

The Grand Councilor is suggesting

that M'Lord hurry over there as well.

l'm not going.

Tell Zhao Dun we shall wait.

However late they are.

We have a gift for him.

M'Lord, they're here.

-The a l'll go welcome them.

-The a Good.

There's an assassin!

Hurry, protest the Grand Councilor!

Take this.

Bravo on your victory, General.

So this is how you reward my son

when he returns a victor?

Luckily it only hit my horse's eye.

This is surely a misunderstanding.

We can testify that Sir Tu'an

didn't mean it.

Go on, apologize to the Grand Councilor

l apologize.

That was nothing...

compared to leading the king astray.

lt was only your horse.

Zhao Dun shouldn't have done that.

This is my punishment.

The talisman oirole

painted on his skin...

contains cinnabar and oxblood.

These insects love that smell.

ls this the best method?

What could be better

than framing them for the crime?

How can l thank you?

There are 300 in the Zhao clan

You tell me.

You're over forty.

How'd you manage to have a boy?

Don't you get it?

We'd have had one earlier if we could

That it happened now...

is fate.

ls there some pill? l want one too.

Pill?

Having a boy is just fate.

She was soared

she wouldn't give me a boy.

l said don't worry...

And whoosh, out he came!

l wasn't wrong, was l?

The next will be a boy too.

Here's your medicine

That'd be my wife. Take your time.

Three things.

Tell me.

First, l want fish soup.

Easy.

The seoond?

These names -The a l don't like any of them.

You don't think any of them

is good enough for our son.

l'll work on it.

There's one more thing.

Hand out 'birth eggs' to all and sundry,

and people will laugh at you.

Who doesn't know by now

that you've had a son?

l have a feeling Lady Zhuangji's due.

l've never killed a woman.

Even one with a Zhao ohild in her belly?

l won't kill Lady Zhuangji.

What about her ohild?

Do we kill it?

Zhao Dun,

to oelebrate our viotory

and oongratulate your son,

what wine have you brought?

Five Color God of State Wine.

lt represents the hopes

of all your people.

Drink it...

and let it inspire you to be

a wise and virtuous ruler.

lt's just wine. What's it got to do

with wisdom and virtue?

lf l don't drink it,

it seems l wrong the people.

lf l drink but l'm not wise,

l wrong the people.

So tell me, should l drink it or not?

-The a l won't drink.

-The a Don't drink it then.

You must drink it.

l also have a gift for M'Lord.

lt is also to remind M'Lord to be

a wise and virtuous ruler.

You're oonspiring to make me unhappy.

What is this gift of yours?

A Divine Beast of the Western Regions.

Divine Beast?

lt's just a dog.

True.

lt's a dog.

What's so speoial about it?

lt oan tell a patriot from a traitor.

M'Lord,

though the palaoe is large...

there's no room for an animal.

Suoh a big plaoe -The a

of oourse there's room for a dog.

Bring it in for us to see.

Wise indeed!

Don't be angry.

lt's just a dog.

Don't be ridioulous!

You don't need a sword

to deal with a dog.

Take it away.

Take it away.

Felioitations, M'Lord.

Lady Zhuangji has given birth.

l'm an unole.

ls it a boy or a girl?

A boy.

Zhao Shuo, hurry, go see them.

Felioitations, General.

You're a father at last.

lf your son had lived...

you'd be a granddad by now.

Let's drink!

We want the red one.

Two,

she says stop giving out eggs.

M'Lady, oan you guess

why she won't let me do this?

Your wife is surely thinking

that you're a famous dootor.

A bit more reserve is oalled for.

Hardly.

She just hates giving away

so many eggs!

Arrest Zhao Shuo!

The first tribute.

No one else may drink

from the king's wine.

The wine's poisoned.

M'Lord!

What?

Kill Zhao Dun!

Exterminate his whole olan!

Sir!

Move or l'll kill you.

-The a Go!

-The a Run!

My wife asks you to give our ohild a name.
