[Kill My Sins]
[This is a work of fiction]
2
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:55,150
Isn't it pleasant?
3
00:01:56,190 --> 00:01:57,760
We're lying here, enjoying the breeze.
4
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,120
It seems like
everything is calming down.
5
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,190
When you are in a bad mood,
6
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:09,400
you are welcome to come
7
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:15,710
and enjoy the peace only found here.
8
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:17,270
Sure.

[Episode 25]
[Find the Right Remedy]
10
00:02:47,470 --> 00:02:47,990
Lass,
11
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:49,710
don't worry. You can stay here tonight.
12
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,590
Tomorrow, I will give you some money,
13
00:02:52,640 --> 00:02:53,470
so that you can go home.
14
00:02:54,750 --> 00:02:55,750
Where do you live?
15
00:02:56,430 --> 00:02:57,200
Tongquan.
16
00:02:58,840 --> 00:02:59,870
Tongquan?
17
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:04,270
It sounds familiar.
18
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:10,750
What's wrong?
19
00:03:12,920 --> 00:03:13,520
Nothing.
20
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:15,750
It reminds me
21
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,030
of an old friend.
22
00:03:20,750 --> 00:03:22,640
He was from there, too.
23
00:03:25,150 --> 00:03:26,150
It is far away from here.
24
00:03:28,270 --> 00:03:28,920
Lass,
25
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:30,270
you were robbed.
26
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,120
It's better to report it.
27
00:03:33,270 --> 00:03:34,080
I don't want to do that.
28
00:03:35,590 --> 00:03:36,270
Why not?
29
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:40,360
I hate the officials.
30
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:42,200
Years ago,
31
00:03:43,150 --> 00:03:43,800
my sister
32
00:03:44,030 --> 00:03:45,360
was taken by an official.
33
00:03:45,870 --> 00:03:47,120
The house she stayed in was set on fire,
34
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:48,920
and she was nearly burnt to death.
35
00:03:50,750 --> 00:03:51,640
Later,
36
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,470
she was forced
37
00:03:55,030 --> 00:03:55,870
to jump off a cliff
38
00:03:57,150 --> 00:03:57,710
and died.
39
00:03:58,870 --> 00:03:59,550
My parents
40
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,640
went through a lot
while raising my sister.
41
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,150
It was very difficult for them
42
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:05,920
to handle all these.
43
00:04:08,870 --> 00:04:09,400
Do you think
44
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,800
I can trust any official?
45
00:04:17,110 --> 00:04:17,840
Right.
46
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:21,560
It was
47
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:23,150
a lot
48
00:04:23,230 --> 00:04:24,560
to bear.
49
00:04:31,450 --> 00:04:34,970
[Dongqiao Salt Granary]
50
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:41,000
Where is he?
51
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:42,470
Over there.
52
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:44,840
Why is he
53
00:04:45,470 --> 00:04:46,760
so persistent?
54
00:04:46,840 --> 00:04:47,230
This...
55
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:50,670
General Wu!
56
00:04:53,150 --> 00:04:53,670
Sir,
57
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,000
what brings you here again?
58
00:04:57,230 --> 00:04:57,760
About the salt,
59
00:04:57,910 --> 00:04:59,270
you've checked by yourself.
60
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:00,960
You aren't going to go on and on,
are you?
61
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,320
Don't worry, Mr. Gong.
62
00:05:02,840 --> 00:05:03,710
I'm not doing it again.
63
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:05,320
Great.
64
00:05:05,590 --> 00:05:06,150
That's great.
65
00:05:06,670 --> 00:05:07,400
Because
66
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:08,910
it is not necessary anymore.
67
00:05:12,470 --> 00:05:13,030
This is...
68
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,320
This is a statement made by a guard
69
00:05:15,840 --> 00:05:17,790
of Dongqiao Salt Granary
and some of the illegal salt smugglers.
70
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:21,320
The man I've been investigating lately
71
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:22,670
used to be responsible
72
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:23,910
for guarding the salt granary.
73
00:05:24,840 --> 00:05:25,470
His name
74
00:05:25,910 --> 00:05:26,670
is Zhao Bu.
75
00:05:27,670 --> 00:05:28,440
He would steal
76
00:05:29,030 --> 00:05:30,910
the official salt
from Dongqiao Salt Granary
77
00:05:31,270 --> 00:05:32,200
and bury it in the outskirts.
78
00:05:32,710 --> 00:05:33,670
Then the smugglers would
79
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,000
take it out.
80
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:37,270
Unfortunately, Zhao Bu
81
00:05:37,910 --> 00:05:39,030
was addicted to gambling.
82
00:05:39,710 --> 00:05:40,960
He couldn't pay his debt,
83
00:05:41,350 --> 00:05:42,520
so he took the risk
84
00:05:42,910 --> 00:05:43,840
and put the salt
85
00:05:44,110 --> 00:05:45,960
in his own pocket.
86
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:47,110
However,
87
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,400
the truth will out.
88
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:50,790
He didn't know
89
00:05:51,030 --> 00:05:51,840
that once it came to light,
90
00:05:52,350 --> 00:05:53,110
the one behind him
91
00:05:53,270 --> 00:05:54,560
would kill him to cover everything up.
92
00:05:57,270 --> 00:05:59,000
Mr. Gong, do you think
93
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:01,560
I've saved this guy?
94
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:14,640
Sir,
95
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:17,030
why are you still up?
96
00:06:18,230 --> 00:06:19,270
I can't fall asleep.
97
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,080
They said
people would get confused as they age.
98
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,840
I am old,
99
00:06:25,030 --> 00:06:25,840
but why is the past
100
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:27,790
getting clearer in my head?
101
00:06:29,030 --> 00:06:30,230
Who are you
102
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:31,640
doing this for?
103
00:06:34,270 --> 00:06:35,520
I don't know.
104
00:06:38,110 --> 00:06:39,320
Truly.
105
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:43,910
What's wrong?
106
00:06:44,270 --> 00:06:45,200
Someone is trying to kill me.
107
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:46,880
Who?
108
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:48,150
Who is trying to kill you?
109
00:06:49,710 --> 00:06:50,150
You...
110
00:06:50,910 --> 00:06:51,470
Who are you?
111
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:52,440
Why
112
00:06:52,670 --> 00:06:53,270
are you
113
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:54,440
trying to kill this young lady?
114
00:06:54,790 --> 00:06:56,110
She isn't any random lady.
115
00:06:57,110 --> 00:06:57,590
Lu Wei,
116
00:06:58,030 --> 00:06:59,080
do you know who she is?
117
00:06:59,790 --> 00:07:00,960
She is involved in the Censor case.
118
00:07:07,150 --> 00:07:07,590
Move,
119
00:07:08,470 --> 00:07:09,640
or I will kill you as well.
120
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:11,150
Move!
121
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:11,670
Stop!
122
00:07:12,470 --> 00:07:13,520
Don't!
123
00:07:14,110 --> 00:07:15,110
What do you want?
124
00:07:15,350 --> 00:07:16,230
He gave the order
125
00:07:16,270 --> 00:07:18,110
and killed so many women back then.
126
00:07:18,790 --> 00:07:19,850
And he forced
the three judicial departments
127
00:07:19,850 --> 00:07:20,560
to make the final judgment.
128
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,150
Yu Qian's entire family died
because of it.
129
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,080
Wu Youjing has done
130
00:07:25,110 --> 00:07:26,470
so many evil things.
131
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:28,000
Why does he have to
132
00:07:28,030 --> 00:07:29,200
kill a woman?
133
00:07:29,710 --> 00:07:30,670
If you want to kill her,
134
00:07:30,710 --> 00:07:32,790
you'll have to get through me first.
135
00:07:42,670 --> 00:07:44,080
Run!
136
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:45,110
I don't need to run,
137
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:47,080
and you don't have to die.
138
00:08:01,110 --> 00:08:01,560
You...
139
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:04,560
You are...
140
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:07,440
Who are you?
141
00:08:08,470 --> 00:08:09,230
Mr. Gong,
142
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:11,470
do I have to make everything clear
143
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:12,670
for you?
144
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:14,670
General Wu,
145
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,030
please don't trick me.
146
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,150
I don't know
147
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:19,520
who you're talking about.
148
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,440
I have him now!
149
00:08:21,910 --> 00:08:22,640
If you want to deny it,
150
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:24,960
we are going to see Her Majesty
151
00:08:25,270 --> 00:08:25,910
and find out the truth!
152
00:08:26,590 --> 00:08:27,440
General Wu!
153
00:08:27,670 --> 00:08:28,110
General Wu!
154
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:28,880
No.
155
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,080
You can't do that!
156
00:08:33,870 --> 00:08:34,590
Now,
157
00:08:34,990 --> 00:08:36,110
I have to tell you the truth.
158
00:08:36,510 --> 00:08:37,870
I've been asking you to drop it.
159
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:38,800
It is
160
00:08:39,230 --> 00:08:40,710
not only for me,
161
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:41,510
but also
162
00:08:45,390 --> 00:08:47,080
for your own sake.
163
00:08:58,560 --> 00:09:00,560
I didn't know
164
00:09:02,710 --> 00:09:03,630
so many happened
165
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:05,710
in the years after I left the capital.
166
00:09:08,110 --> 00:09:08,440
Here you go.
167
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:09,230
Here.
168
00:09:10,680 --> 00:09:11,200
I thought
169
00:09:11,230 --> 00:09:12,200
you were one of them.
170
00:09:13,110 --> 00:09:13,870
But just now,
171
00:09:14,510 --> 00:09:15,960
you were ready to die for me.
172
00:09:17,680 --> 00:09:18,280
It means
173
00:09:18,750 --> 00:09:20,590
you are not a greedy, deceitful person.
174
00:09:21,750 --> 00:09:22,840
So why did you
175
00:09:23,680 --> 00:09:25,590
make the judgment in haste back then?
176
00:09:32,110 --> 00:09:34,230
For the sake
177
00:09:36,510 --> 00:09:38,200
of their children,
178
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:41,040
parents would...
179
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,470
As the Chief Censor,
180
00:09:51,750 --> 00:09:54,200
I supervise the enforcement
of the country's laws and regulations.
181
00:09:54,510 --> 00:09:56,590
I get justice for the wronged ones,
182
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:58,840
or I fail the trust of the people
183
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:00,320
and of the ruler.
184
00:10:00,470 --> 00:10:01,870
I don't give in to power or wealth
185
00:10:01,990 --> 00:10:02,870
nor do I accuse innocent men.
186
00:10:03,110 --> 00:10:05,080
Yu Qian is the backbone
of the Imperial Court.
187
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:06,870
It is immoral for me
188
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:07,750
to bring him down.
189
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:08,470
Your son
190
00:10:08,750 --> 00:10:10,280
is serving in the Personal Guard
of the Court, right?
191
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:14,840
One day, he got drunk after the court
192
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,440
and raped a maid of the imperial palace.
193
00:10:17,110 --> 00:10:18,440
My son sees me as a role model.
194
00:10:18,470 --> 00:10:19,320
He is a righteous man
195
00:10:19,870 --> 00:10:21,870
and would not have done
anything like that.
196
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:22,560
No?
197
00:10:23,470 --> 00:10:25,280
But I think he did it.
198
00:10:44,710 --> 00:10:46,510
Once you have a weakness,
199
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:49,840
sometimes you make mistakes
200
00:10:49,970 --> 00:10:50,970
against your will.
201
00:10:51,680 --> 00:10:52,330
Yu Qian
202
00:10:52,490 --> 00:10:54,090
was someone I truly admired,
203
00:10:55,490 --> 00:10:57,090
but look what happened to him
204
00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:59,680
and to his family.
205
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,040
Everything was in vain
206
00:11:02,090 --> 00:11:03,130
no matter how hard you tried.
207
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,370
Yu Qian was an honest
and honorable official,
208
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,610
but there were few like him.
209
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:11,730
Since then,
210
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:13,850
I couldn't look at my official robe
211
00:11:13,970 --> 00:11:15,890
without guilt anymore.
212
00:11:19,370 --> 00:11:21,370
That was why I resigned and left.
213
00:11:24,090 --> 00:11:25,640
From a County Constable
214
00:11:26,090 --> 00:11:27,330
to royals
215
00:11:27,560 --> 00:11:28,800
and high-ranking officials,
216
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:31,040
this case is very complicated
217
00:11:32,330 --> 00:11:33,440
and involves many people.
218
00:11:35,970 --> 00:11:36,400
Young lady,
219
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:38,440
I'm an old man.
220
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,280
I don't have many years left.
221
00:11:40,560 --> 00:11:42,210
Yet it is different for you.
222
00:11:42,610 --> 00:11:43,850
Listen to my words.
223
00:11:44,330 --> 00:11:45,280
Let it go
224
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:46,730
and do not confront Wu Youjing.
225
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,090
He is not someone you can mess with.
226
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:51,800
Don't get yourself killed
227
00:11:51,850 --> 00:11:53,680
because of it.
228
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:34,490
I'm sorry, Mr. Hai.
229
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,490
Your Highness came
to visit me in person.
230
00:12:41,130 --> 00:12:42,040
I guess
231
00:12:44,490 --> 00:12:45,090
this is
232
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,400
where I'm going to spend my last days.
233
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:54,330
In the end,
234
00:12:56,970 --> 00:12:58,610
we still end up
235
00:12:58,640 --> 00:12:59,640
with this.
236
00:13:02,330 --> 00:13:02,970
That's right.
237
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,040
It is an exchange of expendable pieces.
238
00:13:07,490 --> 00:13:08,970
No one would have seen it coming.
239
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,280
You are suffering for me.
240
00:13:17,330 --> 00:13:18,010
Back then,
241
00:13:18,730 --> 00:13:20,250
you went to Tongquan for me
242
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:21,280
to rope Du Liang in.
243
00:13:22,210 --> 00:13:24,090
Our goal was to take
the salt granary in Tongquan
244
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,040
into our hands.
245
00:13:26,330 --> 00:13:28,090
There's nothing to regret about that.
246
00:13:28,560 --> 00:13:29,760
Your game on salt
247
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,400
is halfway to victory.
248
00:13:34,850 --> 00:13:35,970
The Li family
249
00:13:37,370 --> 00:13:38,800
is counting on the Crown Prince.
250
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:39,920
They are waiting for a chance.
251
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,520
Her Majesty, meanwhile, doesn't favor
the eminent families
252
00:13:42,850 --> 00:13:43,800
but promotes those with no background.
253
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:45,330
One day,
254
00:13:45,490 --> 00:13:46,560
if Her Majesty passes away,
255
00:13:47,560 --> 00:13:48,370
the Wu family
256
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:49,730
needs something to compete with them.
257
00:13:50,850 --> 00:13:51,330
Salt
258
00:13:52,130 --> 00:13:53,160
is the lifeblood of a country.
259
00:13:53,730 --> 00:13:55,330
Only with salt in our hands
260
00:13:56,890 --> 00:13:59,160
can the Wu family keep its foundation.
261
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:01,160
Prince of Kangping,
262
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:02,920
what should I do next?
263
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:05,330
Please tell me.
264
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:08,800
I will make a plea
265
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,160
to keep your family
266
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,640
from getting involved in this.
267
00:14:29,850 --> 00:14:30,560
I see.
268
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:32,250
Ye Ping'an
269
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:34,890
can read the signs and see the trend.
270
00:14:35,210 --> 00:14:36,760
She is a trouble in the chaotic game.
271
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:38,250
No matter what,
272
00:14:40,210 --> 00:14:41,250
she has to be gone.
273
00:14:48,090 --> 00:14:48,560
Ping'an,
274
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:50,010
I see that your thoughts are troubled.
275
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:51,640
You're in the capital,
276
00:14:52,010 --> 00:14:53,440
but it is as if you're in a cage.
277
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:55,130
Have you considered leaving for a while?
278
00:14:56,730 --> 00:14:57,610
To me,
279
00:14:58,730 --> 00:14:59,890
everywhere is a cage.
280
00:15:01,250 --> 00:15:02,440
Hai Yiping took his own life.
281
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:04,010
Yet I still feel
282
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:05,760
there is more behind this.
283
00:15:07,610 --> 00:15:08,680
The end of the Censor case
284
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,280
didn't dispel all her doubts.
285
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:11,890
She still wants to look into the salt.
286
00:15:12,330 --> 00:15:13,890
It could be a problem sooner or later.
287
00:15:14,490 --> 00:15:16,640
Please make a plan in advance.
288
00:15:21,010 --> 00:15:21,490
Father,
289
00:15:21,970 --> 00:15:23,560
Ye Ping'an has to be gone.
290
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:26,210
She will figure
the Censor case out eventually.
291
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:28,250
It's not good for us to do it ourselves.
292
00:15:28,490 --> 00:15:29,760
How about taking advantage
of the merciless official?
293
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:32,520
The Censor case?
294
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:34,010
Is it
295
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:35,490
all your plan?
296
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:36,730
And now, you want
297
00:15:37,330 --> 00:15:38,330

299
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:40,680
respect the rules.
300
00:15:40,890 --> 00:15:42,090
Tell me what the rules are.
301
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:44,210
I'm back from Gong Shao's place.
302
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:46,280
Do you know what I found?
303
00:15:47,090 --> 00:15:48,330
I always thought
304
00:15:48,890 --> 00:15:50,400
the one
who was stealing the official salt
305
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:51,160
was Li Zongxu.
306
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:52,490
The Wu family
307
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:53,970
is prosperous.
308
00:15:55,090 --> 00:15:56,090
Why would you do that?
309
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:57,440
Why?

311
00:16:00,370 --> 00:16:02,640
You often mention that numerous people
312
00:16:02,890 --> 00:16:04,520
died in the Battle of Jinyuan.
313
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:06,130
They died
314
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:07,040
because the Li family
315
00:16:07,210 --> 00:16:08,760
was in charge of the official salt
and got in the way.
316
00:16:09,090 --> 00:16:10,490
Do you want anything similar
317
00:16:10,730 --> 00:16:11,440
to happen again?
318
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:13,610
No matter
who is in charge of the official salt,
319
00:16:14,130 --> 00:16:15,010
it won't happen again
320
00:16:15,210 --> 00:16:16,370
as long as all the officials
321
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:17,210
are honest

is never for me.

You do it for your own power.
327
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:26,280
For that,
328
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,730
you stole the official salt
329
00:16:30,010 --> 00:16:31,040

makes a medicine effective?

00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:43,050
while a severe illness
387
00:19:43,570 --> 00:19:44,680
should wait.
388
00:19:50,090 --> 00:19:51,400
May I ask
389
00:19:52,330 --> 00:19:53,240
how to treat
390
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:54,920
an unknown disease?
391
00:19:58,850 --> 00:20:00,090
It hides in the dark,
392
00:20:00,850 --> 00:20:02,680
and the patient often pretends
it doesn't exist.
393
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:04,000
As time goes by,
394
00:20:04,530 --> 00:20:05,610
a light symptom becomes a severe illness
395
00:20:05,890 --> 00:20:07,000
and eventually something incurable.
396
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:08,200
By that time,
397
00:20:09,370 --> 00:20:11,160
even the most miraculous medicine
398
00:20:11,890 --> 00:20:13,000
cannot change anything.
399
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:14,480
Keep going.
400
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:16,480
The pain of the people
401
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,200
starts from their tolerance.
402
00:20:18,610 --> 00:20:19,480
They value
403
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:20,810
bonds and relationships,
404
00:20:21,330 --> 00:20:22,090
so that they endure
405
00:20:22,810 --> 00:20:23,960
being exploited.
406
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:25,330
I travel around
407
00:20:26,050 --> 00:20:27,480
to treat the unknown diseases of people
408
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:29,720
and keep them safe.
409
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:32,130
Ye Ping'an,
410
00:20:36,770 --> 00:20:37,850
I finally see
411
00:20:38,090 --> 00:20:40,240
how you treat people,
412
00:20:40,570 --> 00:20:42,770
but your treatment is too strong
413
00:20:43,090 --> 00:20:45,090
and inappropriate.
414
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:46,530
Your skill
415
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,200
still needs some refinement.
416
00:20:49,850 --> 00:20:51,130
Leave the capital.
417
00:20:51,610 --> 00:20:52,530

418

to get the experience.
419
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:08,680
Master Suxuan, what are you thinking?
420
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:12,160
I'm confessing my sins.
421
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,290
I heard from those coming to pay homage
422
00:21:15,530 --> 00:21:16,290
and learned about
423
00:21:16,290 --> 00:21:17,610
what happened lately.
424
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,000
Why didn't you tell me last time?
425
00:21:20,330 --> 00:21:21,330
I don't want you to worry
426
00:21:21,570 --> 00:21:22,610
about the past.
427
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:23,920
Since you decided to help my father
428
00:21:24,050 --> 00:21:24,770
back then,
429
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:26,290
you have no sins.
430
00:21:27,090 --> 00:21:28,530
Helping your father at that time
431
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,330
was my first sin.
432
00:21:30,850 --> 00:21:32,770
Leaving you behind
to run away from everything
433
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,330
was the second one.
434
00:21:34,770 --> 00:21:36,130
You shouldn't take the wrong path
435
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:37,720
like me.
436
00:21:38,090 --> 00:21:38,960
Master Suxuan,
437
00:21:39,370 --> 00:21:40,050
you once asked me
438
00:21:40,090 --> 00:21:41,160
to follow my heart.
439
00:21:41,850 --> 00:21:42,330
I'm here
440
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:43,850
to tell you
441
00:21:45,850 --> 00:21:47,240
that I've made my choice.
442
00:21:47,890 --> 00:21:48,440

00:21:50,890 --> 00:21:51,330
I'm worried
446
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:52,610
that it will lead him back to us.
447
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:53,640
Maybe you should stop him?
448
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:55,610
Kang is only holding a grudge
449

about the delay of grain and salt
during the Battle of Jinyuan.
450

Once Li Zongxu is taken down,
451

he will be done with it.
452
00:22:03,330 --> 00:22:04,130
I'm afraid

454

Shuodan is sending troops to the border.
577
00:27:01,610 --> 00:27:04,480
I plead to lead the army to the border.
578
00:27:05,290 --> 00:27:06,440
I will guard the Great Feng
579
00:27:07,330 --> 00:27:08,530
and keep the foreigners out!

as the Marching General of Yanbei.

He will be the commander of the march.

That is all.

I am lowborn.
586
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:47,890
I shouldn't throw the water on Mr. Yuan.
587
00:27:48,330 --> 00:27:49,440
I am stupid.
588
00:27:49,770 --> 00:27:51,920
I shouldn't throw the water on Mr. Yuan.
589
00:27:53,130 --> 00:27:54,050
I am lowborn.

I shouldn't throw the water on Mr. Yuan.
591
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:56,920
Let's go.
592
00:27:58,160 --> 00:27:59,130
What did he do
593
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:00,400
to be punished this way?
594
00:28:01,570 --> 00:28:03,400
Mr. Yuan took his son
595
00:28:03,530 --> 00:28:04,200
to the Court of Judicial Review
596
00:28:04,290 --> 00:28:05,330
for selling illegal salt.
597
00:28:05,610 --> 00:28:06,440
The old man was mad.
598
00:28:06,610 --> 00:28:07,570
He said his son did that
599
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:08,720
only because he was starving.
600
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:09,920
[Zhao Feng, Vice Minister of Justice]
He then threw a basin of water
601
00:28:10,050 --> 00:28:11,330
over the head of Mr. Yuan.
602
00:28:11,610 --> 00:28:13,440
This pissed the Underworld Lord off,
603
00:28:13,890 --> 00:28:14,530
so the Underworld Lord
604
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:15,610
punished him to kneel here.
605
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:18,160
The Underworld Lord?
606
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,530
This is his nickname now?
607
00:28:20,570 --> 00:28:21,290
That's right.
608
00:28:21,810 --> 00:28:22,400
The Underworld Lord
609
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:23,770
used to be a nice guy.
610
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:25,610
He did a lot for the people
611
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:26,810
and helped Mang Gutter a lot.
612
00:28:27,330 --> 00:28:29,130
But he has been
like a totally different person
613
00:28:29,370 --> 00:28:30,480
since he was with the Mei alliance.
614
00:28:31,530 --> 00:28:32,850
He is arrogant
615
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:33,770
and indulges in pleasure.
616
00:28:34,090 --> 00:28:35,370
Anyone who crosses him will suffer.
617
00:28:36,850 --> 00:28:37,680
He is cruel!
618
00:28:38,610 --> 00:28:40,400
And the illegal salt smugglers
shouldn't take the blame.
619
00:28:40,610 --> 00:28:41,960
The price of salt
dropped for a while last year,
620
00:28:42,290 --> 00:28:43,400
but this year, it keeps going up.
621
00:28:43,530 --> 00:28:44,370
The price of salt
622
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:45,530
is 400 wen per dou in the capital.
623
00:28:45,610 --> 00:28:46,440
No one can afford it.
624
00:28:46,850 --> 00:28:48,200
It is almost impossible
to have some salt.
625
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,090
I shouldn't throw the water on Mr. Yuan.
626
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:53,640

After the Khan died,
633
00:29:13,130 --> 00:29:14,240
he took over the throne.
634
00:29:14,610 --> 00:29:16,200
He simply disregarded
the alliance with the Great Feng,
635
00:29:16,290 --> 00:29:18,050
held Wu Liangchen as hostage,
636
00:29:18,570 --> 00:29:19,640
and sent troops to the south.
637
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:21,400
He is a barbarian.
638
00:29:21,770 --> 00:29:24,530
The second prince killed his brother
and seized the throne.
639
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:26,680
It's created an atmosphere
640
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,000
of fear and uncertainty.
641
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:31,480
To settle down the internal affairs,
642
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:33,440
he decided to send his army

to get the grain of our country.

It is a cold winter.
645
00:29:36,570 --> 00:29:38,440

This is
648
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,440
a long-planned move.

00:29:43,850 --> 00:29:45,160
there's something I really don't get.
651
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:46,090
Why did you
652
00:29:46,330 --> 00:29:47,440
ask the Vice Minister of Rites
653
00:29:47,530 --> 00:29:48,610
to impeach you and say
654
00:29:48,890 --> 00:29:50,720
you were extravagant
and only served for the money?
655
00:29:50,890 --> 00:29:52,960
You ended up being punished
by Her Majesty.
656
00:29:53,330 --> 00:29:54,570
You missed half a year of your pay
657
00:29:54,890 --> 00:29:56,400
and got seriously scolded.
658
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:57,530
Do you know
659
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,130
what defines a corrupt, upright,
660
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,330
deceitful, or loyal official?
661
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:04,640
Well...
662
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:06,570
To be honest,
663
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:07,770
Master, you don't consider yourself
664
00:30:08,330 --> 00:30:10,160
as an upright one, do you?
665
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:16,370
Well...
666
00:30:17,370 --> 00:30:19,530
Yuwen Tai and Su Chuo
667
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:20,960
had this conversation before.

They said a good ruler

uses corrupt officials to gain power,
670
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,130
eliminates opposition by purging them,
671
00:30:29,850 --> 00:30:31,330
and wins favor by executing them.
672
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:33,890
I'm afraid
673
00:30:34,810 --> 00:30:36,530
I don't follow.

00:30:36,850 --> 00:30:38,480
As a high-ranking official,
675
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:40,770
I have to make some minor mistakes.

Otherwise, Her Majesty
677
00:30:42,610 --> 00:30:43,920
would have nothing on me.
678
00:30:44,570 --> 00:30:46,090
However, I can't make any big mistakes.
679
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:47,400
If I do that,
680
00:30:47,570 --> 00:30:49,480
all the commoners will hate me.

00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,810
Yuan Shaocheng didn't
get into any trouble lately, right?
682
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:57,440
Not exactly a problem,
683
00:30:57,850 --> 00:30:58,530
but he punished the father
684
00:30:58,570 --> 00:30:59,810
of an illegal salt smuggler.
685
00:31:00,090 --> 00:31:00,640
That old man
686
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:01,680
was out of his mind.
687
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:02,850
He threw a basin of water
688
00:31:03,090 --> 00:31:04,330
on Yuan Shaocheng in this cold weather.
689
00:31:04,570 --> 00:31:05,890
Yuan Shaocheng punished him
to kneel on the street
690
00:31:06,130 --> 00:31:06,920
while holding
a basin of water over his head
691
00:31:07,130 --> 00:31:07,850
and apologizing out loud.
692
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:10,530
Deceit and loyalty can be very similar.
693
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:12,720
Yuan Shaocheng is smart.
694
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:14,640

He has many followers,
698
00:31:20,890 --> 00:31:21,810
and they are supporting
699
00:31:21,850 --> 00:31:22,920

700
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:23,960
to inherit as the orthodox.
701
00:31:24,290 --> 00:31:25,770

as usual,
703
00:31:27,770 --> 00:31:29,960
why do you pretend to be sick
704
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:31,570
and avoid seeing him again and again?
705
00:31:32,290 --> 00:31:33,370
You really didn't understand
706
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:34,440
a word I said just now.
707
00:31:36,330 --> 00:31:37,000
The Prince of Kangping
708
00:31:37,130 --> 00:31:38,330
asked me multiple times
709
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,570
to find him positions
in the areas with salt.
710
00:31:42,130 --> 00:31:43,200
It was a big mistake.
711
00:31:43,850 --> 00:31:44,240

712
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:47,000
the Prince of Kangping is here.
713
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:48,480

I'm no use to anyone.

the problem with Mr. Mei is weird.

his entire body gets itchy,
734
00:32:35,090 --> 00:32:36,890
and there will be red rashes.
735
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:38,810
So it's better not to get too close.
736
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:40,520
So the disease...

00:32:41,130 --> 00:32:42,090
is contagious?

So you are saying
that before you get well,

I shouldn't visit you anymore, right?
741
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:51,520
Have a good rest.

if the Prince of Kangping visits again,

00:33:15,610 --> 00:33:16,810
what should we do?
745
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:19,280
He knew I was faking it,
746
00:33:20,850 --> 00:33:21,960
