02:14Master Marco, you requested more soft cases.
02:17Yes.
02:39Let's go.
03:14General Uruka advised retreat.
03:17I gave the order that we turn and fight, like Mongols.
03:22Mongols do not lose.
03:27I have thought of nothing else these past days and nights.
03:31A ride preceded by victory is much shorter.
03:34True words such as these can only be drawn from a well of personal experience.
03:40Leave me with my son.
03:42Our son is wounded.
03:47Let me see.
03:48The scar that will always remind me of Wu Chang and the men and horses that died there, that is
03:53the only wound.
03:54It too will fade.
03:56Empress, please.
03:58Go to the healer.
04:01Immediately.
04:09You'll write to Karakoram.
04:11Pay a visit to Eric.
04:14I want to know why my brother pledged horse and bow but did not arrive to support my army.
04:20Who's the messenger?
04:22Who's the messenger?
04:25Did he find you at Wu Chang, did he not?
04:30Did you even send a falcon to my brother?
04:33Of course I did.
04:35Return to me the truth.
04:39Go see the healer as your mother instructed.
04:53How are the merchants taxed?
04:55They pay a fee for their stores and higher fees for more traffic, more customers, more money.
05:01Are there ever holdouts?
05:04Inside the imperial wall?
05:06Very rare.
05:09What a good thing they have here.
05:10These vendors know.
05:12They cheat on tribute.
05:13They end up peddling outside the wall.
05:16In Venice, those who do not meet their obligations are in prison.
05:19Is it the same here?
05:20No, no, no.
05:21Thieves are branded thieves.
05:24Marked, they struggle.
05:25Their sons beg, their wives and daughters whore.
05:29They live off Lady Chabby's charity.
05:31But they live.
05:34Sometime.
05:36Severity of punishment, not for me to come at night.
05:40This is for the vice-regent Yusuf and the wisdom of his secretariat.
05:47What is this fabric?
05:49Linen.
05:50These jerks make it in Manchuria.
05:52They don't have copper coins to pay this month, so I'll let them pay with what they have.
06:07Hey, hey, can we get rid of these peasants?
06:12These are my children.
06:15They fell me around like I'm a king.
06:17King of a fine brood, sir.
06:19With my own Venetian slave.
06:22Peasants!
06:24I love that!
06:31Let me put this away.
06:32Thank you for dinner.
06:33It was delicious.
06:36Spices?
06:37You want to talk about spices?
06:40These spiceries pay three and a third percent.
06:45And from the wine they make of the rice, they generate great revenue.
06:50Thus they must pay duty, untold money to the Khan.
06:56What is that, Sangha?
07:09This, Marco?
07:11The verses of love.
07:13See, I travel to collect.
07:15So when I travel, I leave words of love on paper for my goland.
07:21So she remembers she has a husband, eh?
07:25And the Silk Road, do we ever travel there to collect taxes?
07:30Oui?
07:31No.
07:32I travel to collect.
07:34Once a fortnight or so.
07:36You are not permitted to travel outside of Kambalak.
07:41Hmm?
07:41The wonders of Khan's city is plenty.
07:46Hmm?
07:46So please, don't speak of this again.
07:49Because I like you, my slave.
07:52Salute.
07:54Ah.
08:03Noble Tiger traveled a great distance and began to find his eyes growing heavy.
08:09Noble Tiger was very sleepy, you see.
08:13But he was very old.
08:16Did he have no more teeth?
08:20He still had teeth, just no longer sharp.
08:24And so Noble Tiger lay himself under a great banyan tree and fell into a deep slumber.
08:32He had the most beautiful dream of a long, shady path.
08:38And as he walked down it, he grew young again and began a life anew.
08:47So, he slept forever?
08:52Yes.
08:54But all of his friends in the forest were so happy for him.
08:58And they remembered all the treasures he left behind.
09:03You, Ling Ling, are the sweetest, greatest treasure your father ever gifted me.
09:11One I will selfishly hold forever.
09:15Hello, Sunflower.
09:18Uncle!
09:20Uncle's most precious.
09:21Born in the year of the monkey.
09:25That's why you're so clever.
09:27Precious and clever.
09:29Go, show the children your new gift.
09:35The Emperor is breathing his last, and he has requested the presence of his Imperial consort.
09:41It is a tragedy that the fates will not allow him the time to bear witness to the fall of
09:46Kublai Khan.
09:46Perhaps the Goddess of Mercy is sparing him a far worse vision.
09:54Men will one day sing songs about me, sister.
09:59Jasidao, the Prime Minister who vanquished the demon and saved the song.
10:05I will bring my daughter to say goodbye to her father and to the Empire.
