[Ep 5]

Under the circumstance, the one who can keep prince stay

is not his Majesty but the crown prince.

He wants the prince to leave tonight.

How can he keep the prince stay?

You take our salary, you should do your work well.

Know nothing but say the useless words.

Is there anything you can do?

I am sorry.

She just takes the official's salary.

Don't worry.

I can't help it.

I have never been out of the capital.

I get married not to go there.

No one tells you to go there.

Fetch some water for princess, she needs makeup.

Yes

Princess.

Where are you going?

I will talk to my dad.

But chancellor is still in examination hall.

That's the way she is.

Don't take it personally.

Who was he?

I didn't see it clearly, your Grace.

You may leave.

Yes

Your Royal Highness.

It's spring snow.

So great.

Brother will take the first place.

You are young.

You believe this?

Don't move.

I can't tie it well.

Brother.

Did you take the number plate with you?

Otherwise, you are not allowed in.

Where is your paper?

It's the paper of ministry of rites.

They will give out the paper in the examination room.

Did you read dad's letter?

Dad is going to the capital.

After you win the first place, it will be double happiness.

What happened?

You are afraid, dad will punish you after you fail?

Don't worry.

I will help you.

But maybe I can't stop him.

We haven't seen each other for years.

Now you become so noisy.

To be frank.

Are you really my sister?

Not an impostor, right?

No.

Blimey.

It snows after the court.

Why it's so cold, here?

No one orders you to live here.

Have you read your books?

Are you sure you can pass the exam?

You still do this here.

How can I swot up?

His Royal Highness didn't sleep well last night?

He gave his Majesty the homework.

One Thousand Character Primer in regular script.

He wrote dozens of words till last night.

Stayed up all night.

Swot up again?

Last time, on one page his Majesty found your 5 errors.

You were gloomy for a few days.

What nonsense are you talking about?

Attendant Wang, what are you waiting for?

He needs some lessons.

Yes

I am sorry.

Don't scare her.

You called her sister when you were little.

Jia Yibo rolled in the mud in silks.

Is this clothes so expensive?

It's different.

Well.

Do you still have the wine made in last year?

We should drink together after I come back.

Fengen.

This year, you should...

What?

I will tell Fengen to pretend to be sick.

He won't attend the exam this year.

You can't do this.

He is young.

He still has a chance after three years

You don't understand.

Nothing.

After all, you are not a scholar.

Good luck.

Mother said this.

She told me to take care of you.

My little girl grow up.

Not for you to tell me.

But why do you come back first?

And why not come to capital with dad?

It's minister Lu 's birthday.

Dad told me to give the gift to him first.

Minister Lu's birthday this year coincides with the exam again, huh?

So I sent it yesterday.

And.

Dad told me to keep an eye on you.

Do it well.

You are lying.

No.

I get going now.

Ok

Be careful.

Horseshoes will slip off.

Two chief examiners demand we should check strictly.

More silver in the box.

Dizi No. 27, clear.

Commander

The paper is intact.

Now I will open it.

Minister Lu, please

Let's start

Lock the door.

We can't open it before the exam is over.

Your Grace.

Dizi No. 27, cheat.

Your Grace.

Someone cheated with crib-sheet.

Crib-sheet?

Yes

Tell all examinees to come out.

We should re-search them.

Yes.

All the examinees, pens down.

You can't take any items. and gather in the yard.

Hurry up.

Your Grace.

All of you, boots and clothes off.

All examinees take off your boots and clothes.

Examiners give you an order.

Are you deaf?

Dilly-dally.

Maybe he is cheating.

Guards, take his clothes off.

Yes.

How dare you!

Who are you?

You dare to touch my clothes.

Minister Lu

What is it?

Teacher.

What happened?

Jia Yibo.

You are afraid of cold, right?

You won't need to take off your clothes.

Take off

Your Royal Highness

Jia Yibo

Told you to keep it for him.

It takes nine days.

Today is the first day.

He wants to ask for trouble.

I won't be patient to wait for him.

Who do you work for?

They still could cheat depite our strict search.

Bloody crib sheet.

It's strictly prohibited by explicit order.

But they still cheat.

We should stop the examinee who cheats.

And we will punish him after the exam is over.

The rest should go back to the room.

Yes

Wait.

Commander.

Minister Lu

Look at this.

The test paper is leaked.

Minister Lu

Only two of us know the test paper.

I am afraid the examinees can't go back.

You and I

won't go back, either.

Another one.

Where did you find them?

Tianzi No.60 come out.

Your name.

I am Lu Wenpu from Huating.

Xuanzi No. 2, come out.

I am Xu Changping from Yuezhou.

Tianzi No. 48, come out.

Who is Tianzi No. 48?

I, Gu Fengen

Attendent Wang.

What's up?

Attendent Wang.

Today in Jia Yibo's room, they found...

Jia Yibo won't cheat with crib sheet.

If only it's crib sheet. At most he will be disqualified.

He answered the sheet in advance.

What?

The paper is leaked.

Jia Yibo is involved in it for no good reason.

Commander sends the message from the crevice in the door.

His Majesty told the ministry of jusitce to arrest Jia Yibo and other cheaters.

His Majesty approved of the test paper.

Only two examiners know it.

Even commander doesn't know.

How can the paper be leaked?

Yes

So the imperial decree told them to lock the door.

And chancellor and Minister Lu are locked in there.

Attendant Wang.

Leaking the paper and buying the paper are grave crimes.

Your Royal Highness

Your Royal Highness

I told Li Baizhou and Lu Shiyu to go together

just because I don't want to see this happen.

Examinees suspected of fraud are arrested to the ministry of rites.

The commander is watching the two chief examiners in examination hall.

Are you sure the paper is intact?

Commander personally checked.

There are no signs of breakage.

The paper is intact

I will open it now.

Minister Lu, please

We copied the exmineers' sheet suspected of cheating with crib sheet.

after they left the room.

All the suspects denied.

And.

All the sheets on scene are not consistent with their repective crib sheets.

Maybe because the exam just begins.

Only two examiners know the paper.

One is Li Baizhou.

The other is Lu Shiyu.

As I know, last night crown prince went out of the palace

and went to see Lu Shiyu right?

Yes

He doesn't know to avoid arousing suspicion.

Who else, besides Gu Fengen?

Lu Wenpu

Imperial minister Lu Ying's eldest son.

Lu Ying.

Your Majesty.

He is the new imperial minister.

You give the decree.

You told him to come to capital from Sichuan.

Probably he is on the road now.

The student recommended by Minister Lu.

I know him.

One is his cousin

One is his teacher's favorite student's son.

And his teacher.

Tell crown prince.

I will go to the ministry of justice to supervise the case tomorrow.

He needs to stay in the palace, can't go out.

If he intervenes, I will punish him gravely.

Yes.

That is the suspect.

I am fed up with living if I let you in.

I want to see assistant minister Du.

Please help me tell him.

You think you can see assistant minister Du as you want?

Is Zhang Luzheng in there?

And Du Heng?

Minister Zhang is about to rest.

Assistant minister Du will come soon.

Your Mightiness

Stop.

Your Mightiness

Can you help me tell assistant minister Du ?

Lu Ying's family from Huating wants to see him? It's urgent.

Lu Ying

Lu Wenpu, you are his...

My brother.

He is the suspect.

What do you want?

My brother is not a cheater.

He is framed up.

Framed up?

Even if your dad were here, he wouldn't be so sure.

Go back.

Not the place for you to stay

Your Mightiness

You have no one that you believe and go all out to protect without a reason?

I.

Really no.

Because you have both reason and strength.

Right?

Brother Gu.

It won't be...

No dynasty will interrogate the prisoners at late night.

Who told you that?

Come.

On your knee.

No need.

Don't let others come in.

You can go now.

Yes.

Jia Yibo.

Who is this?

The suspect's name, age, hometown and admission No.

What charge?

You asked the admission No.

You know what charge.

Are we on trial?

I, examinee, Gu Fengen

23 years old.

From the capital.

Tianzi No.48

I am charged with paper leaking.

I, examinee Lu Wenpu

23

From Huating.

Tianzi No. 60

I am charged with paper leaking.

I...

Where did you get the paper sheets answered in advance?

How did you bring it to the examination hall?

I don't know.

I don't know where the sheets come from.

Lu, the official's son.

Your father is the head of censors.

You are from a literary family.

I don't want to torture you.

I don't want to hurt a literate.

I really don't know

Get the three men...

Bring up.

Yes

Don't.

A'xi?

Why are you here?

Brother.

You should tell him all.

Minister Lu gave you the sheets.

Is the crown prince in there?

Dad is minister Lu's student.

Minister Lu gave you the sheets so you could pass the exam.

A'xi

What nonsense are you talking about?

Even if it's not the truth, all the people will think so.

You can't wash yourself clean.

But his Grace promised,

as long as you say it's minister Lu,

he will commute the sentence for you.

I don't know who you are.

But you can forget it.

Our family won't do the filthy things or live in disgrace.

Your Mightiness, am I right?

And.

A clean hand wants no washing.

A'xi

Go home now.

If you dare to say minister Lu again, you are not my sister.

Brother

Not me, it's...

Your Mightiness, you are so ignominious to

coerce his confession with his sister.

He wouldn't let me in if I hadn't said like that.

Even if I cheat, he won't do so.

Jia Yibo, you are arrested here.

You still can't mind your language?

Who are you?

Xuanzi No. 2 from Yuezhou.

23.

I was charged with cheating.

Examinee Xu Changping.

It's not the interrogation just now.

But soon it will be.

Hope the official's son can stick to what you have said.

Take them out.

Yes

You are serious?

Brother.

A'xi. -Brother

Go back.

I am not afraid, I will go with you.

What do you want, your Mightiness?

What I want to do.

It's not good for girls to see.

Please.

Your Royal Highness.

Your Royal Highness

Li Chongkui is very stubborn.

He only listens to the emperor.

Now the exmination hall is sealed tightly.

I tried it.

But I don't pry out anything.

I think surely one of them knows something.

Jia Yibo is excluded from this right?

If his Majesty interrogates them, it will be worse than this.

If he says something he shouldn't,

it will be more than the physical punishment.

You know the drill.

You should go in person.

Yes.

You need to wait for a while.

Miss Lu, have a seat.

And.

How do you know my identity?

I saw your horses just now.

They are shorter than ordinary horses.

But the horses run fast.

They stopped without screaming and hoofs up.

They are strictly trained.

And I saw a mark on horse.

So.

These are not the ordinary horses.

They are military horses.

In the capital, only the crown prince can mobilize the army.

My imperial guards.

A girl, knows quite a lot.

My dad was the censor of the tea-horse trade.

So I know a little bit.

Your Royal Highness

They confessed.

Bring them up

Brother.

I come to realize something now.

Supervision and vigilance.

So I think it means a mistake.

I really didn't expect at this time, minister Lu and

commander can live in the same room.

It's so...

But minister Lu, don't worry.

Commander, you guard here all day long.

Tomorrow, the emperor will come in person for interrogation.

If we torture the scholars, they will tell us all.

We won't be in such a dilemma.

Sorry

I can't stay up.

Good night.

All my fault.

Minister Lu, you should go to bed early.

Commander, good night.

I beg your leave.

Zhao.

You should stay.

Only me and chancellor know the paper.

But you have the key.

Not brother.

We are inside.

Why bother the curtain?

You are afraid.

Then you don't need to force yourself.

Not afraid

You are a male stranger after all.

Your Royal Highness

Who are they?

Since you want to sue me, why do you take my money?

Your Grace.

More silver in the box.

Dizi No. 27, clear.

To tell the examiners.

He was cheating.

It's you who led them to make a thorough rummage right?

Yes

Chancellor told me to let him in and report it.

I just do as told.

I don't know why, either.

Your Grace.

Someone is caught cheating with crib sheet.

Crib sheet?

Yes

Tell all the examinees to come out.

We should re-search them.
