[Go East]

[Episode 10]

[Sifang Pavilion]

What's wrong with Mr. Yu?

I don't know.

Why the long face?

Mr. Yu.

Let me talk...

Where... Where is East Court?

I guess they are too ashamed to come.

Exactly.

They're the ones who assisted us this time.

We deserve all the credit.

-Yes.
-That's right.

-Don't we?
-Exactly.

Those people...

Yu.

We, the West Court, have done a great job in finding out the real culprit.

Why are you unhappy

and are even frowning?

Am I?

Aren't you?

Mr. Yu, are you blaming us for

neglecting other duties

as we worked on this case?

No, no, no.

This time, you guys

stayed united as one West Court

to solve the case together.

I've seen and remembered

everything you've done.

Then why do you still look so down?

That's because you guys

investigated the case too thoroughly.

I...

What's wrong with being thorough?

You don't understand.

It's great for Jingzhao Prefecture.

But it's not necessarily so

for Sifang Pavilion.

So the murderer was Mu Yikuan.

He is from Yanle.

That could be considered infighting.

Now, the murderer has become

Mu Yikuan's maid, Hongye.

Hongye is a native of Yong.

Yanle's delegation has come to express their condemnation.

They are almost at the gate of Changle City.

Even Long Tuqi is personally here?

He has to guard Yanle, so he wouldn't dare to come out so easily.

But our visitors indeed bear ill-intentions.

I heard the leader

is called Kang Yunhai, a trusted minister of Long Tuqi.

This man

knows Yong better than the people of Yong.

He's very scheming.

This time,

not only do we have to appease the people from Yanle,

but we also cannot bring shame to Yong.

You tell me.

Isn't this difficult?

This is so weird.

Didn't he already lose his disc?

What's going on?

Yuan Mo.

Come here.

What's wrong?

It makes no sense.

He lost his place but won in the end.

It's better to lose one disc than to lose the game.

It's more important to take the lead

than worry about the number of pieces in a game of Go.

It's like fighting.

It's okay to get punched first.

As long as I sprinkle the powdered drug at the critical moment

and it'll kill him, right?

Yeah, that's the idea.

You're amazing.

Teach me your ways.

No, I can't.

Please teach me.

I haven't played Go for years.

I can't teach you.

Why not?

I...

I can't teach you anyway.

Based on what I've just seen,

you're pretty good for someone playing according to the game records.

I can tell that you're talented.

Keep it up.

I don't believe you.

Yu told me

Yanle's delegation is coming.

Aren't you from Yanle?

Aren't you going to welcome them?

Welcome?

That's right.

I'll use my death-inducing powder to welcome them.

You hate them a lot, huh?

I don't just hate them.

I hate them with a passion.

I haven't had a home since I was born.

I had nothing.

It's all because of Long Tuqi

and his greedy claws.

People like him are high and mighty.

They eat, wear and use the best.

He had no regard for the lives of the people

and made us homeless.

You’re in Changle now.

You won’t be homeless anymore.

You still have me.

Uh...

Don't say I didn't warn you.

The son of Long Tuqi died in Changle.

When the delegation of Yanle arrives,

I'm sure they'll come after you.

You need to be prepared.

Don't worry. I'm here.

It'll be okay.

You want to transfer Yuan Mo away?

Yes.

I have a more important task for him.

What could be more important than receiving the delegation?

Recently, the foreign merchants in the West Market commented that

someone smuggled refugees into Changle.

I have to send Yuan Mo

to go to the city gates and check it out.

He has discerning eyes.

He's perfect for this task.

You get me?

Mr. Yu.

Can't you send someone else to

investigate the matter of smuggling refugees?

Xiuyi has been with

Sifang Pavillion for a long time now.

He's experienced in foreign affairs.

And you are also familiar with

the case of Long Beina well, right?

It's enough for him to

deal with Yanle's envoy alone.

Xiuyi.

This time, Yanle's envoy

is Kang Yunhai, a trusted aide of Long Tuqi.

Your father, Vice Minister An, will personally receive him.

You'll be in charge of all matters.

I'm sure that with both of you working together,

it will definitely be a success.

Thank you, Mr. Yu.

This waist of mine...

I've really gotten old.

You young people should work hard.

You'll have a bright future.

Mr. Yu.

The West Court...

Well, if East Court requires the help

of the West Court,

they'll definitely assist.

The East and West Courts will work together as one.

One...

By the way, I have a

particularly difficult task for you.

You'll be responsible for transcribing

all of the delegation's negotiations.

You mustn't...

You mustn't make any mistakes.

[Archive Room]

Retainer Wang.

Retainer Wang.

I've gone through all the files regarding Yanle

as per your instructions.

Long Tuqi

is Yanle's most powerful official.

He has a powerful army.

In the fifth year of Anping in Yong,

he started a rebellion.

Not only did he bring down the king of Yanle,

but he also wiped out the entire royal family.

The current king of Yanle

is his puppet which he planted.

He conferred himself the title of Viceroy.

Whoever he supports will be the emperor.

That is why

we have never

acknowledged this new king of Yanle.

By the way,

are the files of our Sifang Pavilion staff

also kept here?

They are on the shelf over there.

I'll get it.

No need.

Go back to work.

Yuan Mo.

The son of Yuan Hanjing.

In the fifth year of Anping,

Yuan Hanjing was a Sifang Envoy to Yanle.

He met a sandstorm on his way back

and went missing?

In the fifth year of Anping...

It's the year Long Tuqi started the rebellion.

Was Yuan Mo's father's death not an accident,

but it was instead related to the people of Yanle?

So that's why Mr. Yu transferred him away.

The delegation of Yanle came

not only for the matter of Long Beina,

but they're also here to discuss the important matter of barter between our states.

Is everything ready?

Like father, like son.

I left everything to Xiuyi.

What's there to worry about?

The Yanle delegation is here.

They're here.

Get a grip on yourself.

Beat the drum!

Wait!

What do they mean?

-This is unacceptable.
-It's outrageous.

What kind of nonsense is this?

Yes, this is too much.

How ridiculous!

Xiuyi.

Yanle delegation, please stop.

May the envoy step forward.

The delegation must stop, and the envoy should step forward.

Protect the Vice Minister of Rites!

Go!

This is Yong's Changle City.

Why is the Yanle delegation not obeying our orders?

Why are you wearing mourning suits?

May the envoy step forward

and express your intention.

Otherwise, you will be treated as an enemy.

You are not a high-ranking official,

but you sure have a loud voice.

[Yanle's Deputy Envoy, Kang Yunhai]

Retreat.

I, An Yuandao, the Vice Minister of Rites of Yong,

am here to welcome you

on the special orders of the imperial court.

But you have come from afar

only to try and enter our city gates in mourning suits.

What kind of barbarian state is Yanle?

You've gone too far.

This is not how you should be treating a friend, isn't it?

Ways of friendship?

Viceroy Long of Yanle

sent his beloved son to Yong to study,

but he died in Changle City for no apparent reason.

Is this your way of friendship?

We also feel heartbroken over

Viceroy Long's loss of his son.

However, we must still respect our national etiquette.

I ask that Deputy Envoy Kang and your delegation please remove your mourning suits

and enter the city to discuss as equals,

so that we can settle the dispute

and let the deceased rest in peace.

Well said.

Equality.

The most important thing between two states is equality.

Vice Minister An.

Since you've mentioned that

Yong is also heartbroken,

then you must understand the pain of Viceroy Long

over the death of his son.

Fine.

There are new mourning suits here.

I ask that all the officials of Yong

put on the mourning suits and share Yanle's grief.

We'll get off our horses and enter the city immediately.

-Who does he think he is?
-He's gone too far!

Utter nonsense!

How could we as people of Yong mourn for Yanle?

Why not?

Yong and Yanle has been friends for years.

When the late king of Yong died,

didn't the people of Yanle also put on mourning suits for you?

When Yuan Hanjing, an envoy of Yong, died in the desert,

I had also take great pains to deliver his belongings back.

Now, given that Yanle's Viceroy's son died such a miserable death,

how could everyone in Yong be so heartless?

Why are the city gates closed?

Why are the gates closed?

Who told you to close the gates?

I did.

Vice Minister An.

Deputy Envoy Kang.

I wonder if you're here

as an envoy representing Yanle

or to prepare a funeral for your Viceroy?

Today, Changle City's main gates are wide open

to welcome a distinguished guest of the state.

If you're here to mourn,

all of you please

use the side gate over there,

just like the people of Changle City.

It seems that your carriage is a bit too wide.

Well, you might have to saw off the ends of the posts first.

Otherwise, you'll have to compensate for breaking the door frame.

How dare you!

Who are you?

I'm just a small official of Sifang Pavilion's West Court.

How dare you talk like that as a lowly official?

Sir.

I may be a small official,

but I'm not lowly.

As a kid, you must've learnt，

”When in Rome, do as the Romans do."

No matter how small I am, I am also the host as Changle City.

You're guests invited by us.

How can the host mourn for a guest?

-That's right.
-Well said.

A state has its laws and a family has its rules.

If Deputy Envoy Kong insists on mourning for Young Master Long,

that's Yanle's private matter.

I was ordered here on behalf of

the imperial court of Yong for official business.

If you insist, please excuse me.

Wait.

I thought Yuan Mo would cause trouble,

but he just made a great contribution.

Yuan Mo is very smart.

He's a rare talent.

In the future,

you can get him to be more involved.

Okay.

[Ministry of Rites]

[Ministry of Rites' Council Chamber]

Please.

Please.

You and the delegation travelled day and night

to arrive in Changle early.

You must have had a long journey.

Ministry of Rites has prepared some wine for you.

After the banquet, we'll send you and your delegation

back to Yanle Hall for some rest.

Forget about the formalities.

Let's get down to business.

Deputy Envoy Kang, you came here for the barter between the two states.

We should be courteous.

Although I'm here to discuss the barter,

before that,

I would like to ask you for two persons.

Previously, you sent a letter stating that

Hong Ye, the murderer who killed Young Master Long,

has been caught.

In that case,

please hand over Hong Ye,

so that we can take her back to Yanle

and punish her according to the laws of Yanle.

Also, Young Master Long’s guard, Long Ge,

is still imprisoned

in the prison of Jingzhao Prefecture.

He needs to be transferred to our custody immediately.

Hongye is from Yong,

and she committed the crime in Yong.

She should be punished according to the law of Yong.

How can we hand her over to another state?

As for Long Ge,

he committed murder in Changle City and poisoned others.

He has violated the laws of Yong.

Considering that he gave us the antidote,

he can be given a lighter sentence according to the law.

But that's about it.

Between both our states,

there's no precedence in the exchange of criminals, has there?

It's going to happen now.

Vice Minister An.

I'll repeat once more.

Presently,

it's Yanle's Viceroy's son who died.

If you're looking for precedent,

this is also an unprecedented case

in the history of both states.

Since this is a special case,

we should also handle it uniquely.

I'll not accept

anything less than

both of them.

Deputy Envoy Kang.

And this...

Advisor Ma.

Go and get Deputy Envoy Kang enjoy a cup of tea

and calm down.

Vice Minister An.

Calm down.

Kang Yunhai came prepared.

I think they can have Long Ge.

But we must not hand over Hong Ye.

If we break the rules,

what will other states think?

Since the two states are

in the middle of an unprecedented situation,

I believe we can also negotiate together

an unprecedented compromise.

We are willing to take your suggestion

to transfer the Long Ge to Yanle.

However, the length of the sentence

can only be increased and must not reduced.

Also, Yanle must guarantee that

after Long Ge is released from prison,

he will never step into Changle City.

Is that okay?

Good. I agree.

Yanle will take care of Long Ge ourselves.

But...

I must have Hong Ye.

Deputy Envoy Kang.

You don't know what

compromise means, do you?

We can't be making the compromise ourselves

while you don't.

If you don't give in,

what's the point of negotiating in good faith?

Who told you

we are negotiating now?

Advisor Ma.

Yes.

Tell him what we are doing now.

We are informing you.

Tell their Ministry of Rites that

only when the two criminals are transferred

that we will continue our discussion on

trade and barter.

The transfer of prisoners is a sufficient and

necessary condition for subsequent negotiations.

So?

Do you plan on ruining the peace

between the two states for a murderer?

This is a matter of law and national dignity.

Forgive me for not acceding to your request.

In that case,

I don't think there's any need

for us to continue discussions.

Advisor Ma.

Yes.

Take Long Ge back to Yanle Hall.

Yes.

Well, we got nothing out of that,

and even lost one person to them.

[Yanle Hall]

I've identified him.

The chap at the city gates was Yuan Mo.

He's the son of Yong's late Sifang Envoy, Yuan Hanjing.

He's the son of Yuan Hanjing?

Yes.

That's why it felt like déjà vu.

Back then,

I often played chess with Hanjing.

Yuan Mo

is indeed quite like his father.

Long Ge wants to meet you.

Please.

I, criminal Long Ge,

thank you for saving me.

I didn't save you.

I just took you back to Yanle Hall.

According to the agreement between the two states,

you'll still have to be grounded.

I understand.

But being grounded in Yanle Hall

is like I am back at home.

Thank you, Deputy Envoy Kang, for not forgetting about me.

Long Ge.

Please rise.

You've been loyal to Young Master Long.

He was right about you.

I failed to protect him.

I deserve to die.

It’s not your fault.

I want to avenge Young Master Long too.

I wanted to take the murderer, Hong Ye,

back to Yanle and hack her up.

But Yong remains powerful,

so I failed.

Young Master Long.

Forgive us for not being able to kill the culprit for you

and bring comfort to your soul in heaven.

Deputy Envoy Kang.

My life was dedicated to our Young Master.

I beg you to let me fulfil my duty to our Young Master.

I promise I won't implicate you.

Shut up.

You must never think this way.

I finally got you out of prison.

How can I let you risk your life again?

Promise me, Long Ge.

Don’t make unnecessary sacrifices anymore.

Young Master Long will forgive us

in heaven.

Just stay grounded, understand?

Release the guards.

Report to me if anything happens.

Yes, Deputy Envoy Kang.

[Sifang Pavilion]

Stand up straight!

Let me ask you.

You're done with the case on smuggling refugees?

How can we ever get to the bottom of something like this?

Then why did you make a spectacle of yourself in front of

the Yanle delegation?

Fine, I won't do it again.

Then how about you tell me

what you were going to do

in that sticky situation then?

We...

Tell me.

No.

You just didn’t want me to meet Kang Yunhai.

It was that Kang Yunhai who

came to Yong and reported that my parents died in the sandstorm.

Yuan Mo.

I can't explain the past in a few words.

But do you trust him?

Yuan Mo.

I heard about what you did.

Good job!

I was previously wrong about you.

No, I...

Did I hit him too hard?

It probably hurts a little.

Ms. Yuchi.

What's the matter?

I'm here to ask

who are we going to send from Sifang Pavilion

to represent us in our discussions with the delegation?

You didn't have to ask.

For such matters,

of course it will be led by East Court.

On what grounds?

The East Court is familiar with military horses, provisions,

and the foreign trade situation.

These are the key points of the negotiation.

Hua.

If you want to work for Sifang Pavilion,

you can help me out at East Court.

Think about it.

You and I will be

invincible together.

Why did you have to join Wang Kunwu's side?

I think he's a nice guy.

At least he's better than you.

Better than me?

How am I not as good as him?

You're no match for him.

He's nothing but a soldier.

And you rely completely on your father.

I, An Xiuyi,

from a low-ranking official of Sifang Pavilion to the being East Court's retainer,

relied completely on my own skills.

If I had relied on my father,

I would have joined Ministry of Rites long ago.

Do you really think so?

Mr. Yu.

Mr. Yu, I have a question.

Has An Xiuyi done anything wrong in Sifang Pavilion?

He made mistakes occasionally.

Occasionally?

Has he ever been punished then?

It's understandable.

It's understandable.

Look.

Where did this favoritism come from?

Was it because you came from a humble background,

and you had worked really hard?

Ms. Yuchi.

What you said was inappropriate.

Xiuyi is indeed very motivated.

He's not like all the other guys.

Let's just talk about East Court.

East Court

stayed up late at night for months.

Thanks to you, the West Court

was stuck deep in the case.

I was being absolutely fair

when assigning the tasks.

I wasn't being biased at all.

It's settled then.

Did you hear that?

Yu was praising you.

You're different from the other guys.

No matter how hard you try,

in the eyes of others,

you'll always stick out.

And you're still trying to hide?

Sir.

Go ahead.

I think you might have misunderstood Advisor Yuchi.

I don't think she meant to

belittle your ambition,

but instead, wants you to accept your identity.

You don't have to mind people's criticism.

You might rely on Vice Minister An,

but you didn't take any favours from him.

You are not in control of

other people's favoritism.

So then, there's nothing wrong with being

diligent and ambitious either.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

It's the first time I've heard you talk so much.

[Yanle Hall]

[Prison]

Who are you?

What do you want?

Don't come over!

Help!

Sifang Pavilion wants to see Yanle's Deputy Envoy Kang.

Ask for him now.

This is Yanle Hall.

What do you want?

Bring me the man.

Kneel!

Let me ask you instead.

We had just

handed Long Ge over to you.

You instead indulged him to break into prison

and assassinated an important criminal.

What are you all up to?

We... I...

We need to investigate this matter.

We can't judge simply based on your words.

I've already brought the criminal here.

You still want to deny it?

Step aside.

Otherwise,

I'll destroy Yanle Hall today.

How dare you?

You want to start a fight?

So what if I do?

Stop!

-Yuan Mo from Sifang Pavilion.
-Yuchi Hua from Sifang Pavilion.

Greetings, Deputy Envoy Kang.

Rise.

Long Ge?

Why are you here?

Aren't you...

So Deputy Envoy Kang had no idea that

your prisoner had actually escaped?

After Long Ge was transferred to our custody,

I ordered someone to keep a close eye on him.

How could it be?

Ma Zhiwen!

I'm here.

How did you even watch him?

I...

How did you even watch him?

He...

He must have escaped by himself.

Yes.

Not only did he escape,

but he also killed another criminal, Hong Ye.

Isn't this a bit of a surprise?

Long Ge.

You've got a lot of nerve.

I just want to avenge my master.

Last night's escape and murder

was all my own doing.

It had nothing to do with Yanle

or Deputy Envoy Kang.

I'll bear all consequences

by myself.

Who do you think you are?

I came all the way to maintain Yanle's dignity

by trying to settle the resentment between the two states.

But what did you do?

Because of your own hatred,

you disregarded the agreement between both states

and took revenge on your own.

You're a disgrace to Yanle.

What you did

made all my efforts go to waste.

You've really disappointed me.

Everyone from Yong, listen up.

This is Yanle Hall,

so we'll follow the laws of Yanle.

Long Ge is a criminal whose custody

has been transferred to Yanle.

Now, he's made a terrible mistake and should be executed according to the law.

I'll have executed him on the spot.

Everything is in accordance with previous agreements between the two states.

Everyone from Yanle Hall, put your weapons away.

Go back and tell Vice Minister An

our debts are settled.

We can now discuss about the rest.

[Ya Feng]

Don't you all feel like we have lost?

They asked for Long Ge as soon as they came,

and we handed him over.

They wanted to kill Hong Ye to avenge for Long Beina.

Didn't they manage to do so too?

Long Ge has violated our law.

We should punish him as Yong instead.

But what happened?

Deputy Envoy Kang came and executed him on the street.

There's nothing we can do about them.

Don't you think we lost?

But I think Long Ge deserved to die.

He did so many bad things for Long Beina.

He deserved it.

And he cannot bring any more harm to Changle ever again.

The trade negotiation between the two states can continue.

We have to look ahead

and bid goodbye to all our troubles.

Let's welcome happiness from hereon.

-Let’s drink.
-Come on.

Yes.

You're right, Ms. Ah Shu.

Come on.

Cheers.

Cheers.

After this meal,

we have to all move forward.

The negotiation between the two states is coming.

We have to keep our spirits up.

You people from West Court must do your best...

in transcribing.

Retainer Wang.

It's not nice of you to pick on me

in front of everyone.

Transcribing is also

a relatively important task.

Yes.

Yuan Mo,

Don't drink so much.

Am I right or not?

No, no, no.

No, I am saying something is wrong with the wine.

Ah Shu.

Why does this wine

tastes like my Lingxi wine?

Yes.

Didn't Yuchi Hua give you money to buy wine?

Why did you take my Lingxi wine out?

Why should I buy more wine when we have wine at home?

Yuchi's money is also precious.

What's wrong with drinking a bit of your wine?

How petty.

Ah Shu!

Good job!

Fine.

No one is being serious.

We finally have a day off.

Can't we just have a nice dinner followed by a drink?

It's not bad indeed.

Here, pour me a cup.

I tell you, this Lingxi wine...

-It tastes really...
-Come on.

Hua, fill it up.

-I couldn't recognise the taste just now.
-Fill it up.

You knew?

I should have told you earlier.

Fill it up, Wang.

Come on.

Save some for me!

This wine is good.

Take it away. Come on.

Fill it up.

Fill it up.

I tell you—

You're done after just a few cups?

It hurts me to see you guys drinking like that.

Kang Yunhai is hard to deal with.

Are you upset too?

Does it have anything to do with me?

Yes.

On the day Yanle's delegation entered the city,

Yu transferred you away.

I found it strange,

so I went through the files.

Come back and drink!

Come on!

Come!

According to the files,

your parents died in a desert storm

on their way back from their mission to Yanle.

But curiously,

it happened during the time of military mutiny in Yanle,

when Long Tuqi helped the new king ascend the throne.

What are you trying to say?

Your parents' deaths may not be an accident.

Besides, Deputy Envoy Kang is a trusted aide of Long Tuqi.

There's a good chance he knows what happened back then.
