20
00:01:51,820 --> 00:01:55,380
Professor Ye, I revised the draft of my thesis again. I know you dislike reading e-versions.

21
00:01:55,380 --> 00:01:57,640
Leave it there. I'll review it later.

By the way, Professor Ye, did Fan Xian die or not?

28
00:03:10,700 --> 00:03:15,260
- What's up? 
- Professor Ye, is Fan Xian really dead?

29
00:03:25,700 --> 00:03:27,380
Are you done with your thesis?

30
00:03:27,380 --> 00:03:30,720
Not yet. I'm still brainstorming.

Everyone keeps asking me the same question ever since you delayed your updates.

39
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,760
How did Fan Xian end up after lying on the ground? Is he dead or not?

40
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,380
If he's alive, what should he do next?

41
00:04:01,380 --> 00:04:05,260
I completed it. I wanted you to be the first to read it.

42
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:13,220
I remember Fan Xian was stabbed by someone before you stopped your updates.

43
00:04:13,220 --> 00:04:16,080
- It was Yan Bingyun. 
 - So, is he dead or not?

It's Xie Bi'an's carrier pigeon. It's related to Fan Xian.

It's your man from the Inspection and Control Bureau.

133
00:13:25,340 --> 00:13:29,460
I didn't expect Fan Xian to die just like that.

134
00:13:30,340 --> 00:13:32,340
Fan Xian went against His Highness.

135
00:13:32,340 --> 00:13:34,880
It will definitely cause chaos in Qing State.

136
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,975
There was no feud between us.

137
00:13:36,975 --> 00:13:39,700
I killed him for the sake of Qing State.

For the sake of Qing State? 
 [Xie Bi'an, bodyguard of Second Prince]

139
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:42,960
If so, why are you cremating his body?

140
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:44,620
Fei Jie is his master.

141
00:13:44,620 --> 00:13:46,940
Elder Fei's medical skills are on par with his poison techniques.

142
00:13:46,940 --> 00:13:49,620
With Fan Xian's death, he'll surely examine his body.

143
00:13:49,620 --> 00:13:52,480
I can't hide the wound that caused his death.

144
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:56,300
But how can you explain to everyone without the body?

145
00:13:56,300 --> 00:13:58,580
I'll say that he couldn't adapt to the local conditions,

146
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,820
was infected and died from a disease.

147
00:14:08,100 --> 00:14:11,820
Xie Bi'an said Fan Xian died and his body was cremated.

148
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,060
Did Xie Bi'an kill him?

149
00:14:15,060 --> 00:14:19,120
No. Yan Bingyun stabbed him from behind. The secret plot succeeded.

150
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,560
Yan Bingyun killed Fan Xian?

151
00:14:37,700 --> 00:14:39,600
His body was indeed cremated.

152
00:14:43,100 --> 00:14:46,460
Why? You don't trust me?

153
00:14:47,340 --> 00:14:49,080
That's not it.

154
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,220
I only wanted...

155
00:14:52,460 --> 00:14:54,720
a souvenir for decoration.

156
00:15:01,220 --> 00:15:03,340
Why would Yan Bingyun attack him?

157
00:15:03,340 --> 00:15:04,740
You think something's off, too?

158
00:15:04,740 --> 00:15:08,500
Yan Bingyun always prioritizes Qing State in whatever he does.

159
00:15:08,500 --> 00:15:10,860
He reveres the law the most.

160
00:15:10,860 --> 00:15:14,260
With Fan Xian's position, no matter what happens,

161
00:15:14,260 --> 00:15:18,080
Yan Bingyun would bring him back to the capital for interrogation.

162
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,980
Why would he kill him?

163
00:15:20,980 --> 00:15:23,600
It's illogical for the Tiger Guards to deliver the news.

164
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,360
You're right.

165
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:29,060
The Tiger Guards were protecting Fan Xian under His Majesty's order.

166
00:15:29,060 --> 00:15:34,480
If Yan Bingyun really killed him, Gao Da would've arrested him.

167
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,060
How could it be possible to deliver such news?

168
00:15:47,980 --> 00:15:51,240
Could there be a problem with the news?

169
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:57,200
Did he fake his death?

170
00:15:58,220 --> 00:16:00,060
That's possible.

171
00:16:00,060 --> 00:16:02,220
Why did that brat fake his death?

172
00:16:02,220 --> 00:16:04,820
Tell me. Why do you think he did that?

173
00:16:04,820 --> 00:16:06,980
The reason no longer matters.

174
00:16:06,980 --> 00:16:08,880
Right now, Fan Xian...

175
00:16:10,180 --> 00:16:12,700
is beyond redemption.

176
00:16:15,060 --> 00:16:16,620
You mean His Majesty?

177
00:16:17,180 --> 00:16:19,740
He deceived the ruler.

178
00:16:23,620 --> 00:16:26,600
This can't be. Fan Xian wouldn't die that easily.

179
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,700
However, this is indeed Xie Bi'an's handwriting.

180
00:16:28,700 --> 00:16:31,340
What would I do if I were Fan Xian?

181
00:16:32,500 --> 00:16:35,100
I would fake my death and escape.

182
00:16:35,100 --> 00:16:37,740
- Where can he go? 
 - The capital, naturally.

183
00:16:37,740 --> 00:16:40,120
This person values friendship.

184
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,040
He wants to deceive the kingdom and hide his tracks.

185
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,980
A pity that even if he's burned to ashes, I can still recognize him.

186
00:16:46,980 --> 00:16:48,060
What is this?

187
00:16:48,060 --> 00:16:49,840
The ashes of Fan Xian.

188
00:16:52,100 --> 00:16:54,180
- Where are you going? 
 - To see His Majesty and plead for mercy.

189
00:16:54,180 --> 00:16:57,380
He refused to see anyone just now. It'll be the same if you go again.

190
00:16:59,340 --> 00:17:01,460
What should I do then?!

191
00:17:05,120 --> 00:17:08,220
Suppress the news of his death and don't make a big fuss?

192
00:17:08,220 --> 00:17:09,800
Quite the opposite.

193
00:17:10,620 --> 00:17:12,610
We should create a big fuss.

194
00:17:12,610 --> 00:17:15,700
Fan Xian's death has to be valuable.

195
00:17:16,540 --> 00:17:19,420
Your Highness, how can you be sure that Fan Xian isn't dead?

196
00:17:19,420 --> 00:17:23,060
Wujiu, have I ever misjudged anyone?

197
00:17:24,120 --> 00:17:27,540
But he was killed and cremated in public.

198
00:17:27,540 --> 00:17:30,000
- How could he possibly escape? 
 - I have no idea.

199
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,760
I can't see through this. This is what we call a surprise.

200
00:17:34,660 --> 00:17:36,940
That's Fan Xian for you.

201
00:17:53,300 --> 00:17:55,730
[Gao Da, Leader of Tiger Guards]

202
00:18:04,460 --> 00:18:05,500
You can have it back.

203
00:18:05,500 --> 00:18:07,800
Let me examine this sword.

204
00:18:08,550 --> 00:18:09,930
[Wang Qinian, Secretary of Inspection and Control Bureau]

205
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,760
Where did the blood come from?

206
00:18:17,980 --> 00:18:19,620
We can't let it die for nothing. Right?

207
00:18:19,620 --> 00:18:21,780
Official Fan made up for it.

208
00:18:21,780 --> 00:18:24,380
- It's chicken blood. 
 - Chicken blood?

209
00:18:26,660 --> 00:18:29,860
You predicted this and knew it would happen today.

210
00:18:29,860 --> 00:18:32,120
- I'm very popular. 
 - What do you mean?

211
00:18:32,120 --> 00:18:36,540
When I was leaving the capital, the senior brothers from the Third Division gave me lots of great toys.

212
00:18:38,500 --> 00:18:41,180
Wait! Wait!

213
00:18:41,180 --> 00:18:43,220
Wait, Junior Brother.

214
00:18:45,780 --> 00:18:48,260
Junior Brother, follow me.

215
00:18:48,260 --> 00:18:49,880
Come.

216
00:18:50,980 --> 00:18:52,460
What's the matter?

217
00:18:52,460 --> 00:18:54,640
You two, keep guard over here.

218
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,420
What are you thinking?

219
00:18:59,420 --> 00:19:00,460
Here, hold this.

220
00:19:00,460 --> 00:19:03,180
I have something important for you.

221
00:19:09,420 --> 00:19:10,540
This is...

222
00:19:10,540 --> 00:19:13,700
Look. Isn't this fun?

223
00:19:13,700 --> 00:19:15,780
The tip of the sword enters from here and exits from there.

224
00:19:15,780 --> 00:19:19,180
There's a blood pouch inside. You can control the volume of spilled blood.

225
00:19:19,180 --> 00:19:20,740
This is quite interesting.

226
00:19:20,740 --> 00:19:23,320
You're on a mission to an enemy state. It's filled with dangers.

227
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,640
If nothing works out, you can at least "die"

228
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:41,600
Who would expect that we would use it in our own state instead of Northern Qi?

229
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,300
You haven't wiped your face yet.

230
00:19:43,300 --> 00:19:46,020
He did it on purpose so that he could brag about his hard work.

231
00:19:46,020 --> 00:19:47,220
Not at all.

232
00:19:47,220 --> 00:19:50,220
I'm willing to do anything for Official Fan.

233
00:19:50,220 --> 00:19:53,860
I'm willing to go through all kinds of dangers for you.

234
00:19:53,860 --> 00:19:57,260
Fortunately, you even thought of bringing a torch.

235
00:19:57,260 --> 00:20:01,620
I had to burn it. Xie Bi'an will examine it thoroughly.

236
00:20:01,620 --> 00:20:03,540
It's also Old Wang's hard work.

237
00:20:03,540 --> 00:20:06,600
He actually dug a tunnel below and waited for me down there.

238
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,200
Official Fan, it's my honor to assist you.

239
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,980
What about the ashes? Where did you get them from?

240
00:20:14,700 --> 00:20:16,740
Sir, you might not know,

241
00:20:16,740 --> 00:20:20,460
the diplomatic corps prepared two carts of food.

242
00:20:20,460 --> 00:20:24,260
I found a half catty of dried pig in the cart.

243
00:20:24,260 --> 00:20:28,640
After burning it, the size was similar to Official Fan.

244
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,960
Official Fan, my mistake. I shouldn't compare you with a pig.

245
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:33,560
Oh no. That's not what I mean.

246
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,220
Official Fan, if you're angry, you can kick me twice. Bring it on.

247
00:20:37,220 --> 00:20:39,840
Stop it. Your acting isn't as good as Young Official Yan's.

248
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,060
How can I compare to Young Official Yan?

249
00:20:42,060 --> 00:20:45,800
Young Official Yan's acting is very realistic.

250
00:20:46,500 --> 00:20:50,080
Actually, there's still a flaw.

251
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:51,600
What flaw?

252
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:55,360
Reducing a body to ashes with such a temperature can't be achieved in such a short time.

253
00:20:55,360 --> 00:20:58,040
But when I think about it, Xie Bi'an is a swordsman.

254
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,120
He may not excel at cremating people. He won't be able to figure it out.

255
00:21:03,260 --> 00:21:04,760
Do you excel at cremating people then?

256
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,700
Official Fan is good at burning anything.

257
00:21:06,700 --> 00:21:09,220
I learned to cook this chicken from him.

258
00:21:09,220 --> 00:21:14,540
Official Fan is dashing, smart, and good at everything.

259
00:21:14,540 --> 00:21:16,600
You are good at rhyming.

260
00:21:18,220 --> 00:21:21,020
What's next? What's your plan?

261
00:21:22,060 --> 00:21:25,180
Teng Zijing's wife and child, Fan Sizhe,

262
00:21:25,180 --> 00:21:26,900
and also Master.

263
00:21:27,620 --> 00:21:31,260
I'll feel uneasy if the Second Prince holds them captive.

264
00:21:31,260 --> 00:21:33,020
You want to save them?

265
00:21:33,620 --> 00:21:37,020
The convoy can take its time. I'll rush back to the capital first.

266
00:21:37,020 --> 00:21:39,280
You're truly bold.

267
00:21:40,460 --> 00:21:42,360
Can I ask you something?

268
00:21:44,260 --> 00:21:45,780
What is it?

269
00:21:45,780 --> 00:21:48,280
Why did you choose to side with me?

270
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,560
Aren't you afraid the Qing State might be in turmoil?

271
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,260
The Inspection and Control Bureau has never been afraid of threats.

272
00:21:57,260 --> 00:22:00,180
Whatever I do, it's for the sake of the Qing State.

273
00:22:00,180 --> 00:22:03,420
Li Chengze is a prince of Qing State.

274
00:22:03,420 --> 00:22:05,540
As a prince,

275
00:22:05,540 --> 00:22:08,980
he actually colluded with Northern Qi and embezzled the state funds.

276
00:22:08,980 --> 00:22:11,060
His intention is sinister and can be punished.

277
00:22:11,060 --> 00:22:14,620
I'm loyal to Qing State and His Majesty.

278
00:22:14,620 --> 00:22:16,840
As for the princes...

279
00:22:23,940 --> 00:22:25,380
- Wang Qinian. 
 - Yes, Official Fan.

280
00:22:25,380 --> 00:22:28,040
Deliver a plaque to Young Official Yan later.

281
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,080
What should I carve on it?

282
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,800
Defender of Great Qing.

283
00:22:33,460 --> 00:22:35,220
Nice plaque.

284
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,500
- Old Master, did you hear the news about Fan Xian? 
 - I did.

285
00:23:20,500 --> 00:23:23,400
Don't panic. It's thousands of miles away. It could be misinformation.

286
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,280
We shouldn't panic now.

287
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:27,980
I've already taught them a lesson.

288
00:23:27,980 --> 00:23:30,600
They even thought of preparing for a funeral before the news was verified.

289
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,140
Isn't that ridiculous?

290
00:23:32,140 --> 00:23:33,900
Let them proceed with the funeral.

291
00:23:33,900 --> 00:23:35,320
What?

292
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:39,460
Prepare whatever is necessary. Take it that he's really dead.

293
00:23:39,460 --> 00:23:42,840
Old Master, you mustn't take the news seriously.

294
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:46,120
He is still so young. I don't believe that he's gone. 
 [Liu Ruyu, Female Head of the Fan Family]

296
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,060
Something's odd about the news of his death?

297
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,400
Grieve excessively.

298
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,320
Understood.

299
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,780
By the way, you should check on Ruoruo.

300
00:24:01,780 --> 00:24:03,540
That child cares for Fan Xian the most.

301
00:24:03,540 --> 00:24:06,400
I fear she might fall sick again due to her deep grief.

302
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,440
Ruoruo has always held the highest respect for Fan Xian.

303
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,260
I wonder how she's crying now.

[Fan Ruoruo, Daughter of Fan Jian]

305
00:24:24,740 --> 00:24:26,640
Aunt, you're here.

306
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,280
I just made some donkey-hide gelatin and longan soup.

307
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,740
Drink it later, okay?

308
00:24:31,740 --> 00:24:34,520
Ruoruo, what are you doing?

309
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,700
I wonder what Fan Sizhe is busy with lately.

310
00:24:37,700 --> 00:24:40,560
He's ignoring the bookstore. The warehouse is damp and smelly.

311
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:43,040
I can't take it any longer. I'm drying the books under the sun.

312
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:44,880
Did you not hear the news?

313
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,160
I heard about my brother's death.

314
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,100
Then...

315
00:24:49,100 --> 00:24:51,640
Aunt, don't worry. There's no need to grieve, too.

316
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,060
Remember not to be sentimental and sad.

317
00:24:54,060 --> 00:24:55,880
Why are you advising me instead?

318
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,020
It's because my brother is not dead.

319
00:24:58,020 --> 00:24:59,460
Did your father look for you just now?

320
00:24:59,460 --> 00:25:01,080
No, he didn't.

321
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,220
Why are you so sure that your brother is alive?

322
00:25:03,220 --> 00:25:04,660
Because my brother will never die.

323
00:25:04,660 --> 00:25:06,120
But all humans die.

324
00:25:06,120 --> 00:25:07,980
That's right but my brother won't.

325
00:25:07,980 --> 00:25:09,040
Why?

326
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,500
Because I trust him.

327
00:25:11,500 --> 00:25:13,220
Ruoruo, is this how you really think?

328
00:25:13,220 --> 00:25:14,160
That's right.

329
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,080
I can be at ease then.

330
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:20,260
But, Ruoruo, isn't your trust in your brother considered blind faith?

331
00:25:25,575 --> 00:25:27,020
[Capital of Qing State]

332
00:25:27,020 --> 00:25:29,620
Old Wang, we're back in your territory again.

333
00:25:29,620 --> 00:25:31,260
You must protect me.

334
00:25:31,260 --> 00:25:32,620
Official Fan, you have no idea.

335
00:25:32,620 --> 00:25:36,320
The newcomers have taken over my territory ever since I started following you.

336
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,640
I fear if we encounter the old man, he will recognize us.

337
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:46,040
There are really people here who are imitating me when I sold drawings back then.

338
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,380
Looks like there's a demand in the market.

339
00:25:48,380 --> 00:25:49,860
What market?

340
00:25:49,860 --> 00:25:51,320
Four taels! Four taels!

341
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,400
The drawing is being auctioned.

342
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,780
- Four taels! 
 - Five taels!

343
00:25:55,780 --> 00:25:57,740
Five taels?

344
00:25:57,740 --> 00:26:01,320
Let me see what kind of drawing is worth five taels?

345
00:26:05,180 --> 00:26:06,880
Is this it?

346
00:26:08,060 --> 00:26:10,120
It's too easy to scam people of money.

347
00:26:10,120 --> 00:26:11,460
Don't stir up trouble.

348
00:26:11,460 --> 00:26:13,320
I'm furious.

349
00:26:16,540 --> 00:26:18,260
Go back!

350
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,840
- What's going on? 
 - They're praying to the dead.

351
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,070
Let's go and pray too.

00:26:26,780 --> 00:26:29,520
Here, line up and get your incense sticks.

353
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,220
Give me one too.

354
00:26:31,220 --> 00:26:32,220
Here you go.

355
00:26:32,220 --> 00:26:35,480
Line up and get your incense sticks. Everyone should pray to him.

356
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,040
Why doesn't anyone care about the funeral outside the city gate?

357
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,560
And everyone is praying here.

358
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:42,900
This family must be very tolerant.

359
00:26:42,900 --> 00:26:44,900
Indeed.

360
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:50,740
In this world of turmoil, no poetry can surpass it.

361
00:26:50,740 --> 00:26:56,220
Many have lamented the emptiness of unfulfilled love.

362
00:26:56,220 --> 00:26:57,780
These two sentences aren't related at all.

363
00:26:57,780 --> 00:26:59,130
That's right.

364
00:26:59,130 --> 00:27:01,280
Plus, it's quite a bold statement too.

365
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,460
With you around, how dare they say,

366
00:27:03,460 --> 00:27:05,160
"No poetry can surpass it?"

367
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,500
Don't spout nonsense. Respect the dead.

368
00:27:07,500 --> 00:27:09,740
"Lamented the emptiness of unfulfilled love"?

369
00:27:09,740 --> 00:27:12,880
This is a sentimental talent.

370
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,020
Is there such a person in the capital?

371
00:27:16,700 --> 00:27:18,540
I'll go and take a look.

372
00:27:20,460 --> 00:27:25,520
In this world of turmoil, no poetry can surpass it.

373
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,760
The Memorial Tablet of Fan Anzhi, the Pillar of Qing State?

374
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,600
His surname is also Fan. Who's Fan Anzhi?

375
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,740
It's me.

376
00:27:33,740 --> 00:27:36,280
Official Fan, you are Anzhi?

377
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:38,640
Could it be someone with the same name?

378
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:42,180
Come here. Queue up. Follow me.

379
00:27:42,180 --> 00:27:44,020
Everyone, please take a look.

380
00:27:44,020 --> 00:27:45,520
There's something here you should pay attention to.

381
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:49,060
Official Fan Xian dismounted from the horse at this spot when he first came to the capital.

382
00:27:49,060 --> 00:27:51,760
He mourned the past by the roadside.

383
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:53,600
You arrived in a carriage.

384
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,260
He met a beautiful woman here

385
00:27:55,260 --> 00:27:57,320
and it turned into a beautiful event.

386
00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,280
Everyone, the spring exam is approaching.

387
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,880
If you pray here, not only will you pass your exam,

388
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,500
you'll also be blessed with a happy marriage.

389
00:28:05,500 --> 00:28:07,220
Hurry! Quick!

390
00:28:07,220 --> 00:28:09,980
You won't get married if you don't pray.

391
00:28:09,980 --> 00:28:11,900
You're even praying for a marriage?!

392
00:28:11,900 --> 00:28:13,840
Official Fan, calm down.

393
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:15,380
- I'll tear it down. 
 - Don't! Don't!

394
00:28:15,380 --> 00:28:18,300
It's your memorial tablet. It's bad luck for you to smash it.

395
00:28:18,300 --> 00:28:20,400
What are they thinking?

396
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,460
I don't know either.

Take a look. Everyone, check this out.

401
00:28:37,500 --> 00:28:41,220
Official Fan Xian once drank wine and tea and recited poems here.

402
00:28:41,220 --> 00:28:42,800
Come. Only ten sets left.

403
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:44,140
- This is the last chance! 
 - Did you really come here?

404
00:28:44,140 --> 00:28:47,160
This is the last chance!

405
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,920
Official Fan's personal signature. It's a relic.

406
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:51,740
The handwriting is quite nice.

Look, burgers.

410
00:28:58,260 --> 00:29:01,080
Eat your fill of burgers?

411
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,320
Sir, it's the same as Young Official Fan's scented pouch. Buy one?

412
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:04,580
What's with the five-spice duck smell?

413
00:29:04,580 --> 00:29:06,280
Sir, what are you talking about?

414
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:08,360
Why would Young Official Fan's scented pouch smell like five-spice duck?

415
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,760
Sir, this is a collection of Young Official Fan's poems. Buy one?

416
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,700
Don't want this? I have a better collection.

417
00:29:13,700 --> 00:29:15,780
"Red Chamber." This is the ending.

418
00:29:15,780 --> 00:29:16,900
The ending is out?

419
00:29:16,900 --> 00:29:20,280
What ending? The ending for "Red Chamber" hasn't been written yet. Who are you trying to deceive?

420
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,300
- The ending hasn't been written yet. 
 - You! 
 - It's not done yet.

421
00:29:23,300 --> 00:29:25,300
You pauper! I can see that you can't afford it!

422
00:29:25,300 --> 00:29:26,994
Before the passing of Young Official Fan,

423
00:29:26,994 --> 00:29:28,600
it was his secret poison formula. 
 [One tael for a bottle]

424
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:30,800
It kills snakes, insects, mice, ants, and everything.

425
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:34,000
- Don't sell poison. 
 - Don't sell poison.

It's delicious and there are many flavors.

429
00:29:40,380 --> 00:29:42,080
Official Fan Xian frequented our stall before his death.

430
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,580
He praised them highly. Come, take a look.

431
00:29:44,580 --> 00:29:47,600
Official Fan, when will you take me to try it too?

432
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,540
You'll get plenty of yogurt when I'm revived.

433
00:29:49,540 --> 00:29:53,960
Official Fan, your fake death on our way back was a secret.

434
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:55,840
Why does everyone know about it?

435
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:59,080
Besides us, only Second Prince knows about this.

436
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:00,880
Did His Highness spread the news?

437
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:05,060
I can't figure out why he's doing this.

438
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,700
I remember that your house is nearby

439
00:30:17,700 --> 00:30:19,020
Whose house is this?

440
00:30:19,020 --> 00:30:20,320
This is mine too.

441
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,020
Is it under your name?

442
00:30:22,020 --> 00:30:23,740
No.

443
00:30:23,740 --> 00:30:26,680
Official Fan, make yourself at home.

444
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,060
The original owner of this house was a gardener.

445
00:30:30,060 --> 00:30:31,880
He borrowed money from me.

446
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:35,880
In the end, he didn't make any money and gave this house to me.

447
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,120
Take a guess at what this is.

448
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,560
Isn't that an ordinary kiln?

449
00:30:47,060 --> 00:30:49,600
This is actually the back door.

450
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,320
I dug a tunnel and it's connected directly to the house.

451
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,330
Even if someone were to bother me,

452
00:30:54,330 --> 00:30:57,680
I can enter and exit the house at will.

453
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:02,980
The kingdom was shocked by Fan Xian's death.

454
00:31:02,980 --> 00:31:07,040
At this moment, if we can find him in the capital,

455
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,950
his crime of deceiving the ruler

456
00:31:09,950 --> 00:31:12,660
will be confirmed.

457
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:23,560
I set up a foolproof trap near Wang Qinian's house.

458
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:27,540
As soon as Fan Xian shows up, he'll never be able to escape from you.

459
00:31:27,540 --> 00:31:29,500
Wang Qinian is Fan Xian's trusted aide.

460
00:31:29,500 --> 00:31:30,840
He has lived in the capital for many years, too.

461
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,780
Fan Xian has no one else to depend on except him.

462
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:40,880
Official Fan, look at the roads out there.

463
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,740
They connect in all directions and lead to the outside of the city.

464
00:31:43,740 --> 00:31:46,800
If we are in trouble, it's convenient for us to escape.

465
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:50,060
Not bad at all. This is a haven.

466
00:31:50,060 --> 00:31:52,260
Haven?

467
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:54,540
That's a fitting name.

468
00:31:54,540 --> 00:31:57,300
But there's the Inspection and Control Bureau, too.

469
00:31:57,300 --> 00:31:59,840
Fan Xian is the supervisor of the Inspection and Control Bureau.

470
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:01,840
If he goes back there,

471
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,640
it'll be more than just a crime of deceiving the ruler.

472
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:08,460
If this is really the case, the victor of this round...

473
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,020
will be decided.

474
00:32:12,700 --> 00:32:17,260
I don't remember the Inspection and Control Bureau having this habit.

475
00:32:17,260 --> 00:32:20,860
Initially, this habit didn't exist.

476
00:32:20,860 --> 00:32:24,280
I was fortunate to meet you. Since then,

477
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:28,040
you made my world a warm place.

478
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,840
However, I live in anticipation of thrilling events every day.

479
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:33,320
Here, Official Fan.

480
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:35,460
Have a seat.

481
00:32:39,780 --> 00:32:41,360
Since we have a haven here,

482
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,080
we don't need to go to your residence.

483
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:44,340
We can stay here.

484
00:32:44,340 --> 00:32:46,120
No, Official Fan.

485
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,960
My wife

486
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:52,120
helped the mother and son of the Teng family to settle down.

487
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:53,760
If we want to find them,

488
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:58,780
we still have to return to my residence to see my wife.

489
00:32:59,460 --> 00:33:00,660
Old Wang,

490
00:33:00,660 --> 00:33:02,360
we can go during the night.

491
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,120
We should be more cautious.

492
00:33:04,740 --> 00:33:06,980
Restrain yourself.

493
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:12,040
Close your doors and windows!

494
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:15,280
Prevent fire and theft!

495
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,440
Close your doors and windows!

496
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,860
Prevent fire and theft!

497
00:33:32,460 --> 00:33:35,140
It's good to be home.

498
00:33:40,740 --> 00:33:43,080
What's going on? Is there an assassin?

499
00:33:44,780 --> 00:33:48,580
I told my wife to set this up to guard against villains.

500
00:33:49,300 --> 00:33:53,060
But talking about this, I didn't expect the well to be our exit.

501
00:33:54,460 --> 00:33:58,200
My wife might be asleep. Don't wake her.

502
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,020
If not, she'll throw a terrible tantrum.

503
00:34:01,020 --> 00:34:03,540
Let's head to that room.

504
00:34:04,740 --> 00:34:09,020
If this is the case, why don't we just return to the haven?

505
00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:14,280
That's where my daughter lives.

506
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,800
I've been out for so long. I want to check on her.

507
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:19,720
- Let's go. 
 - Fine.

508
00:34:27,860 --> 00:34:29,660
Here.

509
00:34:29,660 --> 00:34:33,280
It's laced with knives. Step over it.

510
00:34:38,740 --> 00:34:41,340
There's more. Here.

511
00:34:41,340 --> 00:34:43,620
Here and there.

512
00:34:43,620 --> 00:34:46,020
There are deer traps.

513
00:34:46,020 --> 00:34:47,920
Step here and you'll be fine.

514
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,360
My wife switched the position.

515
00:34:58,020 --> 00:35:02,460
Official Fan, why don't I carry you on my back?

516
00:35:48,540 --> 00:35:51,540
Is your father Wang Qinian?

517
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:55,560
I'm his good friend. You can call me Uncle.

518
00:35:57,580 --> 00:35:59,000
For me?

519
00:36:00,980 --> 00:36:02,580
Thank you.

520
00:36:16,540 --> 00:36:18,020
The congee is ready.

521
00:36:18,020 --> 00:36:20,140
The congee is ready.

522
00:36:20,140 --> 00:36:22,280
Mother is asking you to eat.

523
00:36:22,900 --> 00:36:24,240
Okay.

524
00:36:37,100 --> 00:36:39,980
You must be Official Fan. I'm Qinian's wife. 
 [Wife of Wang Qinian]

525
00:36:39,980 --> 00:36:42,480
Please don't call me Official Fan. Old Wang and I are sworn brothers.

526
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:45,500
Based on this, I should call you Sister-in-law instead.

527
00:36:45,500 --> 00:36:47,300
Official Fan, please have a seat.

528
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,030
Qinian went out in the morning to run some errands.

529
00:36:51,030 --> 00:36:53,260
We don't need to wait for him.

530
00:36:53,260 --> 00:36:57,020
He was insensible. He only told me about your arrival this morning.

531
00:36:57,020 --> 00:36:58,490
I had no time to prepare anything.

532
00:36:58,490 --> 00:37:00,100
I could only make some congee. Official Fan, sorry about this.

533
00:37:00,100 --> 00:37:03,200
Please don't say that. I'm the one troubling you.

534
00:37:06,500 --> 00:37:08,140
There's meat!

535
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,400
That's great. What's your name?

536
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,100
Ba Ba. 
 [It sounds like Baba - Father in Mandarin]

537
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:18,020
I didn't teach her that.

538
00:37:18,020 --> 00:37:21,060
You misunderstood her. That's her pet name.

539
00:37:21,060 --> 00:37:24,060
My daughter's name is Ba, a single Chinese character.

540
00:37:24,060 --> 00:37:25,940
May I know which character it is?

541
00:37:25,940 --> 00:37:28,140
Ba, as in domineering aura.

542
00:37:30,420 --> 00:37:32,820
That scared me.

543
00:37:32,820 --> 00:37:36,540
Uncle, your egg fell.

544
00:37:36,540 --> 00:37:38,200
Thanks.

545
00:37:39,940 --> 00:37:43,740
I heard you have dozens of relationships in the capital.

546
00:37:44,940 --> 00:37:47,980
I swear to heavens that it's not true. It's fake. They are rumors.

547
00:37:47,980 --> 00:37:49,820
- Not even one? 
 - Not even one.

548
00:37:49,820 --> 00:37:51,840
What about Her Highness then?

549
00:37:53,180 --> 00:37:55,020
My engagement with Wan'er is real.

550
00:37:55,020 --> 00:37:57,480
But other than that, everything else is fake.

551
00:37:58,180 --> 00:38:01,900
Official Fan, I believe you. Please have your meal.

552
00:38:03,820 --> 00:38:06,620
Uncle, don't let it fall again.

553
00:38:09,060 --> 00:38:10,920
I'll try my best.

554
00:38:18,540 --> 00:38:22,300
Your daughter's name is quite special.

555
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:28,180
Qinian chose the name when I first got pregnant.

556
00:38:28,180 --> 00:38:30,140
We didn't expect it to be a girl.

557
00:38:30,140 --> 00:38:31,460
Why didn't you change her name then?

558
00:38:31,460 --> 00:38:35,200
If the name is masculine, she can be strong too. She can grow up peacefully.

559
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:36,720
That's a great name with a great meaning.

560
00:38:36,720 --> 00:38:39,380
I also think my name is great.

561
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:50,000
Mother, I know my fault now. "Don't talk when you're eating. Go to bed when it's time to sleep."

562
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,640
I shouldn't speak while eating.

563
00:38:54,100 --> 00:38:55,680
Change since you know you're wrong.

564
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:59,340
I know now. I'll change.

565
00:38:59,340 --> 00:39:00,940
Get up now.

566
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:04,540
Official Fan, please have a seat.

567
00:39:13,740 --> 00:39:17,200
I was disciplining my child. Official Fan, please make yourself at home.

568
00:39:28,860 --> 00:39:30,300
Chief.

569
00:39:31,060 --> 00:39:32,100
Where's Yan Ruohai?

570
00:39:32,100 --> 00:39:34,060
He locked himself up.

571
00:39:38,340 --> 00:39:39,760
Let's check on him.

572
00:39:42,500 --> 00:39:44,940
- Official Fan, don't move. 
 - Let me help you to clean up.

573
00:39:44,940 --> 00:39:48,540
Official Fan, I heard from Qinian that you're paying rent.

574
00:39:49,740 --> 00:39:52,180
That's what he said?

575
00:39:52,180 --> 00:39:54,740
He said it's one tael a day to cover our expenses.

576
00:39:54,740 --> 00:39:57,420
- Isn't this so? 
 - You're right.

577
00:39:57,420 --> 00:39:58,980
I have to pay my rent.

578
00:39:58,980 --> 00:40:02,060
If so, there's no reason for you to work, Official Fan.

579
00:40:02,060 --> 00:40:05,020
Otherwise, it'll be inappropriate to take your money.

580
00:40:05,020 --> 00:40:06,880
Official Fan, please have a seat.

581
00:40:07,980 --> 00:40:10,300
Ba Ba, chat with Uncle.

582
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:17,460
What should we chat about?

583
00:40:17,460 --> 00:40:20,240
Anything's fine. How old are you?

584
00:40:20,240 --> 00:40:23,320
I'm five years old. What about you?

585
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:25,060
I'm much older than you.

586
00:40:25,060 --> 00:40:27,980
- If so, are you an adult? 
 - Of course.

587
00:40:27,980 --> 00:40:30,640
Why did you sleep on my bed then?

588
00:40:33,340 --> 00:40:36,020
I'm just borrowing it for a while.

589
00:40:36,020 --> 00:40:37,880
Do you like meat?

590
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:38,980
I do.

591
00:40:38,980 --> 00:40:41,180
Do you know what the best kind of meat is?

592
00:40:41,180 --> 00:40:44,260
- What is it?
- It's pork belly.

593
00:40:45,540 --> 00:40:48,020
- You have a point. 
 - If so, do you want to have some pork belly?

594
00:40:48,020 --> 00:40:50,540
- I do. 
 - Mother!

595
00:40:52,500 --> 00:40:53,740
What's the matter?

596
00:40:53,740 --> 00:40:56,200
Uncle wants to have some pork belly.

597
00:40:57,140 --> 00:40:59,620
Official Fan, I'll prepare some for dinner.

598
00:40:59,620 --> 00:41:01,640
It wasn't me. I didn't...

599
00:41:04,620 --> 00:41:07,360
Not bad. You tricked me into getting pork belly for you, too.

600
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:08,640
Can you do me a favor?

601
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:10,020
Okay.

602
00:41:10,020 --> 00:41:13,520
Do you have any papers at home? Find a piece of burnt charcoal stick too.

603
00:41:16,900 --> 00:41:19,940
Ba Ba takes after her father.

604
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:24,960
There are traces of Wang Qinian in the city.

605
00:41:26,140 --> 00:41:29,020
Chief, seems like it's what you expected.

606
00:41:29,020 --> 00:41:32,600
Fan Xian isn't dead. He even came to the capital.

607
00:41:33,340 --> 00:41:37,720
Will you wait for Fan Xian to come and see you here?

608
00:41:37,720 --> 00:41:39,940
He can't come here.

609
00:41:39,940 --> 00:41:42,540
The Inspection and Control Bureau is above all officials.

610
00:41:42,540 --> 00:41:44,420
It's also the most important place in Qing State.

611
00:41:44,420 --> 00:41:48,020
If he abuses his power as a supervisor

612
00:41:48,020 --> 00:41:51,780
for his personal affairs, he'll be executed.

613
00:41:51,780 --> 00:41:55,380
Didn't you say His Majesty was furious?

614
00:41:56,340 --> 00:41:59,140
He deceived the ruler by faking his death.

615
00:42:00,860 --> 00:42:02,840
That warrants the death penalty as well.

616
00:42:03,540 --> 00:42:06,960
Either way, he will die.

617
00:42:08,460 --> 00:42:10,920
Why are you still in the mood for congee?

618
00:42:11,540 --> 00:42:13,680
I've already done everything I could.

619
00:42:15,820 --> 00:42:17,100
Can it save him?

620
00:42:17,100 --> 00:42:19,600
He can only save himself.

621
00:42:21,240 --> 00:42:24,840
What if Fan Xian can't overcome this crisis?

622
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:31,300
If he fails, I fear you have to stay here forever.

623
00:42:33,260 --> 00:42:35,200
I'm not that important.

624
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,560
You're the key here.

625
00:42:38,900 --> 00:42:43,340
What will you do if Fan Xian dies?

626
00:42:51,180 --> 00:42:54,420
If Fan Xian really dies,

627
00:42:55,660 --> 00:42:58,420
many people will be buried with him.
