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

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

Let him go, let him go

Father

You are despicable

I know I will not get it out of you
