Jin yi wei

---

At the dawn of the Ming Dynasty

In order to consolidate all power

and keep his bloodline on the throne

The Emperor founded for his imperial

court an airtight security system

He trains street orphans under a strict,

totalitarian regime

Within the law, these secret guards

bypass judiciary procedures

Outside of the court,

they have their own code of law

They are called JINYIWEI,

the Brocade Guards

Their commander

And the best fighter

is given the name QINGLONG

He was granted

The FOURTEEN BLADES

Inside this box houses fourteen

different steel blades

Eight of these blades are marked:

Sky, Earth, Rank, Law, Wisdom,

Trust, Benevolence, Bravery

That are used for interrogation

The remaining six are used for execution

First to kill those who disobey

the court and the emperor

Second to kill those who interfere

with the imperial administration

Third to kill those who practice

grafting and bend the law

Fourth to kill those who commit treason

Fifth to kill guards

who lay their Jinyiwei brothers

The last of them, a golden sword:

Fulfill your mission or,

failing that, lay down your life

These orphans are alone in the world

Under wise rule

They defend the country

Yet under fatuous rule

They become a walking terror

to the people

The JINYIWEI are involved in

highly military and political affairs

When missions go awry,

they often lose their lives

Meeting their sorrowful fate

THE NORTH PRINCE QING'S RO YAL CITY

Prince Qing is the uncle of the Emperor

During the last Emperor's reign,

he led the army in a failed revolt

Which cost him both his legs

And resulting in his exile

My Lord

All is arranged regarding our plan

with Jia Jingzhong

But I am disgusted

at the thought of his greedy face

More disgusting is the fact that

he is the reason I am still alive

Indeed you've given him

what you've promised

Now he even wants more

Greedy souls are what I'm after

Money is countable

Nothing but some numbers

What I loathe are unsettled debts

THE FORBIDDEN CITY QIANQING PALACE

Your loyal slave Jia Jingzhong

is here to wish your Majesty

a long and healthful life

Tuo is here, noble Father

Tuo Tuo

Do you know why I have called for you?

I shall fulfill your wish,

my beloved adoptive Father

My Lord

JINYIWEI HEADQUARTERS

Qinglong

Our kingdom is under siege

Zhao Shenyan is conspiring to revolt

You must reclaim the treasure box that

the emperor has bestowed upon him

In it is solid proof of his treason

Do you have the Emperor's Order?

General Qinglong, bow to your order

Emperor Secret Order

Counselor Zhao Shenyan

is conspiring to revolt

The Emperor has ordered for

Jinyiwei Qinglong to execute the mission

Bai Hu and Zhu Que

will take lead in your absence

Xuan Wu will be re-stationed

at the East Chamber

With his Majesty's Royal Blessing

General Qinglong receives

his Majesty's Order

THE COUNSELOR'S RESIDENCE

Father, I am afraid

It is alright, Shouzheng

Shenyan

Let us leave together

Madame, I cannot do that

Is it because of the box

It must be the Jinyiwei

General Huang

You must escort Madame

out of the city tonight

Yes

Father... Father

Father... promise me

You must come for us

I promise you, son

Father... don't forget

Now quickly, to the study

Mum, I'm afraid

Don't be afraid

Brothers

Do not make me strike

Kill

Councilor

please hand over

his Majesty's treasure box

You should know

I would rather die

than surrender

to this corrupt court

Show yourself

Shouzheng

Father... Father...

Let him go, let him go

Father

You are despicable

I know I will not get it out of you

Forgive me, for I am here on a mission

I'll have to ask him

Shouzheng, don't be afraid

Listen to me

Shouzheng, he is lying to you

Tell me

Shouzheng, you mustn't tell

I said you mustn't tell

I didn't tell

Uncle said he will grant me any wish

I said... I said

I wanted you back

Did Jia Jingzhong not tell you

the Imperial Seal is in the box

Qinglong

Did you ever think

If this seal were to

fall into the wrong hands

How many lives

would be sacrificed and killed

Enough

To protect this Seal

It is your duty as Jinyiwei

Greetings to General Xuan Wu

Xuan Wu, Xuan Wu

You bastard

Let me out if you dare

I will kill you

Xuan Wu

You are wasting your breath

Kill them

Xuan Wu, when people see

the glory of your success

They will forget the sinister

nature of your means

I was right

Guards, release Bai Hu

Tuo Tuo is here on behalf of my Father

Coming to Sir Jia's aid

We know of Qinglong's escape and

to avoid unnecessary trouble

I will help Sir Jia

to get rid of Qinglong

Do you have proof

That you are indeed

Prince Qing's daughter

HOUSE OF PRINCE QING

Yours

Big Head

Use the money well

Boss

You even give us the dowry

When they come for you

What will you give them

Don't worry

I can handle it

Flag Bearer, here's yours

Boss

We are disbanded

What about this flag

Keep it

There won't be...

a Justice Escorts ever again

We could have kept going

We have been in debt for too long

We can't possibly keep up

Qiao Hua

We are all getting old

I could come with you

Father

I don't want to marry

Haven't the debtors already come?

We said we would pay them in two days

Qiao Hua

Sir, can I help you

I have a job for you

I'm sorry Sir

We've just closed down

Boss

There are three hundred taels here

When all is done

You get an additional three hundred

Sir

Is it this chest

you wish for us to escort?

No... it's me

Thank you, thank you

Congratulations, Boss

Quickly

Everyone

is to be searched thoroughly today

Yes

Sir Yang

Sir Yang

Boss Yong

Why all the strict searching today?

What happened?

Jinyiwei Qinglong

is on arrest for treason

The Emperor has ordered

execution to anyone

who let him go at the gate

My daughter is getting married

Married

Didn't she get married last year?

Let's

not talk about it

Oh... right, right

Sir Yang, won't you help us out

We're in a hurry

Please let us through

Surely

But I'll have to search first

Sir Yang

Sir Yang

Uncle Yang

My niece is prettier every time I see her

Uncle Yang, you sure know

how to joke around

Alright, I've searched this one

Turn around, I'll escort you myself

You can let go of my hand

If it doesn't work out this time either

you should marry me

Quick

Come on

Go

Boss, it's our own wine

Give some to everyone

Orders from Boss, we've had a long day

Sir, have some food

Sir

This is aged wine specially brewed

It is good for bruises

Have some

It will be good to your wounds

My Father started brewing this

since he founded Justice

It's been forty-six years

When I was young, I couldn't understand

When I grew older

and watched him

tolerating the ways of this world

losing money to pass by on one's way

I finally understood that the wine didn't

help him with bruises and wounds

It helped him with his heart

I want to help him

But he refuses me

If it weren't for my marriage

He would never have let me come

I really wish
