<i> Subbed and Timed by the Lang Ya Bang Team @ Viki</i>

2
00:00:06,070 --> 00:00:09,000
<i>Episode 15</i>

3
00:00:09,300 --> 00:00:11,170
Such a big Palace,

4
00:00:11,170 --> 00:00:13,220
there's bound to be an opening somewhere.

5
00:00:13,220 --> 00:00:16,560
Imperial Guards will be at a disadvantage when

6
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:19,060
going against martial arts experts.

7
00:00:19,060 --> 00:00:20,610
Moreover

8
00:00:20,610 --> 00:00:22,190
he's in the light

9
00:00:22,190 --> 00:00:24,170
while I'm in the dark.

10
00:00:25,860 --> 00:00:27,690
From now on,

11
00:00:27,950 --> 00:00:29,570
I will make it

12
00:00:29,570 --> 00:00:32,010
impossible for Meng Zhi to guard effectively.

13
00:00:34,230 --> 00:00:36,300
But no matter what their goal is,

14
00:00:36,300 --> 00:00:38,660
they definitely have more things up their sleeves.

15
00:00:40,170 --> 00:00:42,160
From the current situation,

16
00:00:42,160 --> 00:00:44,460
the most likely goal

17
00:00:44,460 --> 00:00:47,560
is to weaken the Emperor's trust in the Imperial Guards.

18
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:49,070
Once they weaken the Imperial Guards,

19
00:00:49,070 --> 00:00:51,830
they will have a chance to control the Palace.

20
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,140
The one who wants to control the Palace most,

21
00:00:54,140 --> 00:00:57,040
is the person closest to the central power.

22
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,560
-The Crown Prince and Prince Yu.<br>-That's right.

23
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,370
It's one of the two.

24
00:01:02,870 --> 00:01:06,350
But right now Prince Yu doesn't have <br>anyone in the military that he trusts,

25
00:01:06,350 --> 00:01:08,720
even if he brings down brother Meng,

26
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,330
he doesn't have anyone to take his place.

27
00:01:11,330 --> 00:01:14,000
But the Crown Prince has someone.

28
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,110
The Marquis of Ning, Xie Yu.

29
00:01:16,110 --> 00:01:17,630
Xie Yu is a Marquise General of the first class.

30
00:01:17,630 --> 00:01:18,950
He appears to not partake in the fight for the throne,

31
00:01:18,950 --> 00:01:20,830
He has the favor of the emperor.

32
00:01:20,830 --> 00:01:22,770
If the Imperial Guards is weakened

33
00:01:22,770 --> 00:01:25,170
and Brother Meng is brought down.

34
00:01:25,170 --> 00:01:26,820
The positions of Commander General of the Imperial Guards

35
00:01:26,820 --> 00:01:29,170
will naturally be handed to him.

36
00:01:31,140 --> 00:01:32,830
But...

37
00:01:34,900 --> 00:01:36,580
But what?

38
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,430
But the Emperor is not that foolish,

39
00:01:39,430 --> 00:01:42,890
he won't easily move Brother Meng's position.

40
00:01:45,820 --> 00:01:49,410
But if this incident gets related to the fight for the crown.

41
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,660
It will be unacceptable for the emperor.

42
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:54,660
This won't do.

43
00:01:55,020 --> 00:01:57,180
I need to go to Prince Yu's.

44
00:01:57,180 --> 00:01:58,810
Brother.

45
00:02:01,820 --> 00:02:03,870
Fei Liu, lets go.

46
00:02:09,270 --> 00:02:11,560
-Your loyal servant Xia Dong greets your Majesty.<br>-Your loyal servant Xia Chun greets your Majesty.

47
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,240
Rise.

48
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:14,810
I summoned the two of you,

49
00:02:14,810 --> 00:02:18,300
on new years day,

50
00:02:18,300 --> 00:02:19,840
because last night,

51
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:24,270
a mysterious case, that makes me uneasy occurred.

52
00:02:25,150 --> 00:02:26,240
You probably

53
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:27,930
have already heard

54
00:02:27,930 --> 00:02:31,260
something about it. <br>Right?

55
00:02:31,690 --> 00:02:34,060
If your Majesty is talking about the murder of the eunuch

56
00:02:34,060 --> 00:02:36,340
then I have heard about it.

57
00:02:36,900 --> 00:02:39,850
Although it happened outside the palace walls,

58
00:02:39,850 --> 00:02:41,410
the victim

59
00:02:41,410 --> 00:02:44,620
is an eunuch I personally sent out.

60
00:02:45,010 --> 00:02:46,350
This act,

61
00:02:46,350 --> 00:02:48,280
made a mockery of my power.

62
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,560
I will not let this go.

63
00:02:51,390 --> 00:02:53,010
To kill Imperial Guards and eunuchs

64
00:02:53,010 --> 00:02:54,400
beside the palace walls

65
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,570
is a bold move.

66
00:02:56,570 --> 00:02:58,050
I reason I summoned you here

67
00:02:58,050 --> 00:02:59,990
is so I can hand this case

68
00:02:59,990 --> 00:03:02,410
to the two of you.

69
00:03:02,410 --> 00:03:05,210
But your Majesty, didn't you already<br>hand the case to Commander Meng

70
00:03:05,210 --> 00:03:07,790
and asked him to investigate it?

71
00:03:08,100 --> 00:03:10,910
While Meng Zhi's duty is to guard the Palace,

72
00:03:10,910 --> 00:03:12,500
a case like this,

73
00:03:12,500 --> 00:03:14,910
he can hardly be absolved of blame.

74
00:03:14,910 --> 00:03:18,860
Of course, I needed to show him some color.

75
00:03:18,860 --> 00:03:20,800
But you know,

76
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,190
although his martial arts is good,

77
00:03:23,190 --> 00:03:25,100
investigating cases like this

78
00:03:25,100 --> 00:03:27,190
is not what he is good at.

79
00:03:27,190 --> 00:03:28,920
I gave him that order

80
00:03:28,920 --> 00:03:31,570
as a facade.

81
00:03:31,570 --> 00:03:35,130
It should make it convenient for the two of you <br>to investigate covertly.

82
00:03:35,130 --> 00:03:38,570
In the end, whether this case can be solved,

83
00:03:38,570 --> 00:03:42,630
will depend on Xuanjing Bureau.

84
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,670
No matter who is behind this

85
00:03:45,670 --> 00:03:48,880
you must investigate completely.

86
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,150
Yes, your Majesty.

87
00:03:54,580 --> 00:03:58,000
Six imperial guards and one eunuch.

88
00:03:58,870 --> 00:04:01,720
Who is the real target?

89
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:03,500
What is his motive?

90
00:04:03,500 --> 00:04:05,290
What could it be.

91
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:07,560
The imperial guards were only acting as body guards,

92
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:08,770
the real target

93
00:04:08,770 --> 00:04:11,090
should be the emperor's eunuch.

94
00:04:12,140 --> 00:04:14,850
Eunuchs rarely leave the palace,

95
00:04:14,850 --> 00:04:17,360
did he offend someone?

96
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,380
So they used this opportunity to kill him, for revenge?

97
00:04:20,380 --> 00:04:21,530
No.

98
00:04:21,530 --> 00:04:23,030
A normal eunuch,

99
00:04:23,030 --> 00:04:24,530
what kind of enmity can he have with anyone,

100
00:04:24,530 --> 00:04:26,550
such that they'd killed him on new years eve?

101
00:04:26,550 --> 00:04:28,820
Furthermore, they were just beyond the Palace walls,

102
00:04:28,820 --> 00:04:31,120
and protected by imperial guards.

103
00:04:31,510 --> 00:04:33,550
Bestowing dishes on behalf of the emperor

104
00:04:33,550 --> 00:04:36,190
he wouldn't have anything expensive on him,

105
00:04:36,190 --> 00:04:39,070
so it wouldn't be a mugging.

106
00:04:40,370 --> 00:04:42,600
There is another reason for killing someone in the pugilist world,

107
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,600
and that is masters fighting for a name.

108
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,550
But this is killing in the dark

109
00:04:47,550 --> 00:04:48,650
and

110
00:04:48,650 --> 00:04:50,810
nothing has been left behind.

111
00:04:50,810 --> 00:04:53,180
So it wouldn't be this reason either.

112
00:04:55,850 --> 00:04:57,700
Could it be...

113
00:04:57,700 --> 00:05:00,610
the culprit just wants to kill an eunuch sent by the Emperor?

114
00:05:00,610 --> 00:05:01,730
As for whichever one

115
00:05:01,730 --> 00:05:03,500
its not important.

116
00:05:03,870 --> 00:05:05,130
So what you mean is,

117
00:05:05,130 --> 00:05:06,730
Out of the twelve groups sent

118
00:05:06,730 --> 00:05:08,950
he randomly picked one.

119
00:05:10,710 --> 00:05:12,490
But,

120
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,050
why did he want to kill an eunuch sent by Emperor?

121
00:05:19,380 --> 00:05:22,700
Killing an eunuch on new years ever<br>outside the palace walls?

122
00:05:23,580 --> 00:05:26,110
What crazy person would do something like that?

123
00:05:26,110 --> 00:05:28,660
I heard that the emperor was mad,

124
00:05:28,660 --> 00:05:32,000
he sentenced Commander Meng to 20 floggings.

125
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,780
Father did that out of anger and shock.

126
00:05:35,780 --> 00:05:37,680
He still believes in

127
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,920
Commander Meng's loyalty

128
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:41,610
That's natural.

129
00:05:41,610 --> 00:05:43,260
But, the commander general's situation

130
00:05:43,260 --> 00:05:45,000
won't be too good.

131
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,130
Your highness, didn't you want to befriend him?

132
00:05:48,130 --> 00:05:50,300
Why don't you take this chance...

133
00:05:50,300 --> 00:05:52,460
You mean...

134
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,120
Under anger, the Emperor sentenced him to a flogging

135
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,380
but after thinking about it, he should know

136
00:05:58,380 --> 00:06:00,950
that this is not to wholly be blamed on him.

137
00:06:00,950 --> 00:06:02,270
If

138
00:06:02,270 --> 00:06:05,180
your highness helps Commander Meng out now

139
00:06:05,180 --> 00:06:06,790
you wouldn't offend the emperor

140
00:06:06,790 --> 00:06:10,080
and the commander general would be thankful for it.

141
00:06:11,030 --> 00:06:12,890
That is true.

142
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,330
No matter the reason behind this case,

143
00:06:16,330 --> 00:06:18,500
we cannot let Meng Zhi go,

144
00:06:18,500 --> 00:06:20,590
and we can't let the Eastern Palace take this chance.

145
00:06:20,590 --> 00:06:22,580
I need to go to the Palace.

146
00:06:22,580 --> 00:06:25,090
Attendants, ready the coach.

147
00:06:40,610 --> 00:06:42,830
The culprit must be a sword master.

148
00:06:42,830 --> 00:06:44,580
There aren't many masters

149
00:06:44,580 --> 00:06:46,460
that can leave a would like this

150
00:06:48,770 --> 00:06:51,550
Da Yu's Xuan sect's "Xuan Yi Fei Tian"

151
00:06:51,550 --> 00:06:54,680
Donghai's Jiang brothers' Ta Lang Xing Bo

152
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,100
and Tianquan Manor's Zhuo Dingfeng's Fei Niao Tou Lin.

153
00:06:58,100 --> 00:07:00,920
these sword techniques can all cause this type of wounds.

154
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:02,360
Neither of us has seen

155
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,890
these 3 sword techniques in person.

156
00:07:04,890 --> 00:07:07,710
Furthermore, the pugilist world is very big, there might be others out there.

157
00:07:07,710 --> 00:07:09,360
With just this point

158
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,070
we can't make any conclusions.

159
00:07:13,230 --> 00:07:15,830
Before finding conclusive evidences,

160
00:07:15,830 --> 00:07:18,780
we can't say anything in front of the emperor.

161
00:07:18,780 --> 00:07:21,560
We can't even talk about

162
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,560
the people we suspect?

163
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,800
Then who do you suspect?

164
00:07:27,380 --> 00:07:29,800
Who do you suspect?

165
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,320
If we talk about power in the pugilist world

166
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:36,180
currently in the city, who can beat Jiangzuo Alliance?

167
00:07:37,660 --> 00:07:39,120
But in Prince Yu's hands,

168
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:40,690
execpt for Mei Changsu

169
00:07:40,690 --> 00:07:43,430
he has no other 'sword'.

170
00:07:43,430 --> 00:07:47,450
If he ordered the Jiangzuo alliance the assassinate the eunuch,

171
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,460
what good is there for him?

172
00:07:53,590 --> 00:07:55,320
True.

173
00:07:55,630 --> 00:07:56,930
Then if it's like this

174
00:07:56,930 --> 00:08:00,090
you are suspicious of people who have 'swords'.

175
00:08:01,340 --> 00:08:03,710
I am only suspecting,

176
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,270
perhaps there are 'swords' in people's hands

177
00:08:10,270 --> 00:08:12,730
that are not obedient to them.

178
00:08:21,660 --> 00:08:24,280
Our majesty's visit to the palace shouldn't<br>take too long.

179
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,510
he should be on his way back.

180
00:08:26,510 --> 00:08:30,590
Mr. Su, please sit and have some tea.

181
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,450
Mr. Su, you rarely leave home

182
00:08:37,450 --> 00:08:39,640
are you here to wish a happy new year?

183
00:08:42,700 --> 00:08:45,500
The moment I come home<br>I hear that you have arrived sir.

184
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:48,670
That's unfortunate.

185
00:08:48,670 --> 00:08:50,320
Sorry for the wait.

186
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:51,590
Regarding the murder case on new years eve,

187
00:08:51,590 --> 00:08:54,630
have you not handled it too rashly?

188
00:08:56,300 --> 00:08:58,710
What do you mean?

189
00:08:59,220 --> 00:09:00,730
I rushed here

190
00:09:00,730 --> 00:09:03,040
to stop you from going to the Palace.

191
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,780
But I was still too late.

192
00:09:06,940 --> 00:09:10,140
I'm afraid you've just done yourself a disservice.

193
00:09:11,580 --> 00:09:14,670
Going to the Palace to beg for mercy for Commander Meng,

194
00:09:14,670 --> 00:09:16,520
what's wrong with that?

195
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:20,510
Command Meng heads the Imperial Guards and protects the Palace,

196
00:09:20,510 --> 00:09:21,730
To put it simply

197
00:09:21,730 --> 00:09:24,580
the Emperor's life is in his hands.

198
00:09:24,580 --> 00:09:26,670
Yet, the moment something happens to him,

199
00:09:26,670 --> 00:09:30,120
you rush to the Palace to beg mercy for him.

200
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,210
What would the Emperor think?

201
00:09:32,210 --> 00:09:35,520
Is it that you are righteous and wish to uphold justice,

202
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,940
or is it that you're great friends?

203
00:09:45,270 --> 00:09:47,270
Obviously it's neither

204
00:09:47,270 --> 00:09:49,910
with the Emperor's suspicious personality

205
00:09:49,910 --> 00:09:53,060
he will think you are using this chance

206
00:09:53,060 --> 00:09:55,450
to strengthen your relationship with Command Meng,

207
00:09:55,450 --> 00:09:57,810
so that you can use him in the future.

208
00:09:57,810 --> 00:10:00,460
This is not a good thing.

209
00:10:06,890 --> 00:10:08,530
What a delightful surprise.

210
00:10:08,530 --> 00:10:10,800
Who would've thought that Prince Yu

211
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:12,610
would beg for mercy from his Majesty for Meng Zhe.

212
00:10:12,610 --> 00:10:14,980
I heard that after listening to him,

213
00:10:14,980 --> 00:10:17,370
his Majesty was quite irate.

214
00:10:17,370 --> 00:10:19,910
Prince Yu has been in the Court for many years

215
00:10:19,910 --> 00:10:21,840
how can he still be so rash?

216
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,200
Think about it

217
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,600
we removed his Duke Qing,

218
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,560
it means taking out his only supporter from the military.

219
00:10:29,560 --> 00:10:32,720
He really needs a 'sword' like Meng Zhi

220
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,040
So it's understandable

221
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,100
that he makes such a silly move.

222
00:10:36,100 --> 00:10:38,370
In this case, Brother Xie

223
00:10:38,370 --> 00:10:40,850
it'll be much easier for you.

224
00:10:41,990 --> 00:10:44,490
Divine talent,

225
00:10:45,170 --> 00:10:46,620
even a Divine talent

226
00:10:46,620 --> 00:10:49,360
cannot stop him from wanting instant success.

227
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,300
The eunuch murder case has

228
00:10:51,300 --> 00:10:54,980
no current impact on your Highness

229
00:10:54,980 --> 00:10:56,890
But have thought about

230
00:10:56,890 --> 00:10:58,700
what would happen if the situation develops further?

231
00:10:58,700 --> 00:11:01,350
To the point where it's uncontrollable?

232
00:11:01,900 --> 00:11:04,400
Problems keep sprouting up in the Palace,

233
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,860
and the Imperial Guards keep not being able to do anything,

234
00:11:06,860 --> 00:11:08,300
whats the result?

235
00:11:08,300 --> 00:11:10,020
The Emperor will believe that

236
00:11:10,020 --> 00:11:12,360
Meng Zhi cannot control the situation

237
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,680
and has no ability to protect the Palace.

238
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,180
Command Meng does not partake in the fight for the throne,

239
00:11:18,180 --> 00:11:20,990
and is loyal to the Emperor.

240
00:11:20,990 --> 00:11:22,990
If he is removed

241
00:11:22,990 --> 00:11:25,280
you don't have anyone on hand

242
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,690
who can take over that role.

243
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:29,890
But on the other hand, the Eastern Palace,

244
00:11:29,890 --> 00:11:31,680
Marquise of Ning,

245
00:11:31,680 --> 00:11:33,530
Xie Yu.

246
00:11:36,180 --> 00:11:40,120
The losses in the Ministries can be slowly recovered

247
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,870
Candidates for the replacement Ministers

248
00:11:41,870 --> 00:11:43,950
are still up for grabs.

249
00:11:43,950 --> 00:11:47,550
But if Xie Yu becomes the Imperial Guards Commander General

250
00:11:47,550 --> 00:11:49,380
I doubt your Highness

251
00:11:49,380 --> 00:11:51,730
will have any good times.

252
00:11:56,570 --> 00:11:58,920
Please advise me.

253
00:12:54,730 --> 00:12:56,680
Fei Liu, Fei Liu

254
00:12:57,070 --> 00:12:59,320
that's Young Master Lin Chen's pigeon right?

255
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,540
It might be something import. Take it to Chief immediately

256
00:13:02,540 --> 00:13:04,050
Don't want to.

257
00:13:07,950 --> 00:13:09,460
How did the Chief

258
00:13:09,460 --> 00:13:11,380
punish you

259
00:13:11,380 --> 00:13:14,200
How did Chief punish you?

260
00:13:14,750 --> 00:13:17,310
How come I cannot remember anything?

261
00:13:17,310 --> 00:13:19,320
Did he make you kneel inside the little black room or

262
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,980
washing the floors,

263
00:13:23,610 --> 00:13:25,600
Fei Liu, Fei Liu, let me down

264
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,080
I've got things to talk to the Chief about,

265
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,530
put me down.

266
00:13:36,910 --> 00:13:38,440
Chief

267
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,160
we've already ordered Tianji Hall

268
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:41,570
to check what martial arts experts

269
00:13:41,570 --> 00:13:45,140
Tianquan Manor has come in contact with in the last few years.

270
00:13:45,140 --> 00:13:49,060
As for the sword masters in the Capital

271
00:13:49,060 --> 00:13:50,410
no matter which sect they're from

272
00:13:50,410 --> 00:13:51,590
Mr. Shisan has already

273
00:13:51,590 --> 00:13:54,630
started tracking their whereabouts.

274
00:13:54,630 --> 00:13:57,230
Set up heavy surveillance around Xie Mansion,

275
00:13:57,230 --> 00:14:00,350
Any news regarding Zhuo Dinfeng and his son must be relayed to me directly.

276
00:14:00,350 --> 00:14:02,530
Yes, I understand.

277
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,160
Zhen Ping is almost here too.

278
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,590
If Xie Yu dares to plan something similar again,

279
00:14:07,590 --> 00:14:10,150
I'm sure he won't be able to escape unscathed.

280
00:14:13,390 --> 00:14:16,820
That's Young Master Lin Chen's beloved pigeon, don't strangle it.

281
00:14:16,820 --> 00:14:19,200
Don't scold him.

282
00:14:19,810 --> 00:14:22,530
Fei Liu didn't hid the pigeon this time.

283
00:14:22,530 --> 00:14:24,130
Very good.

284
00:14:27,100 --> 00:14:29,630
Little fellow, don't move.

285
00:14:30,060 --> 00:14:31,610
Be good.

286
00:14:33,180 --> 00:14:35,200
Better give it to me.

287
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,010
If you give it to Fei Liu,

288
00:14:37,010 --> 00:14:38,940
he might roast and eat it.

289
00:14:38,940 --> 00:14:40,250
You!

290
00:14:47,940 --> 00:14:50,610
Is everything going smoothly in Southern Chu?

291
00:14:51,250 --> 00:14:53,200
Young Master Lin did the task himself,

292
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,270
how could it be unsuccessful?

293
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,460
So, how do we reply to Young Master Lin?

294
00:15:00,270 --> 00:15:02,240
Tell him to arrive at the Capital before the 12th of April,

295
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,030
so as to not impede our plans.

296
00:15:04,030 --> 00:15:05,630
Yes.

297
00:15:10,100 --> 00:15:11,590
Fei Liu.

298
00:15:11,590 --> 00:15:13,890
After brother Lin Chen finished his task in Southern Chu,

299
00:15:13,890 --> 00:15:16,070
he may visit you here in capital.

300
00:15:16,070 --> 00:15:18,170
Are you happy?

301
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,450
Alright, Fei Liu, stop being sad.

302
00:15:30,450 --> 00:15:33,170
Would you like to go out with Su-gege?

303
00:15:34,100 --> 00:15:37,850
I'll take you to see the man you can't beat.

304
00:15:37,850 --> 00:15:39,330
Okay!

305
00:15:39,330 --> 00:15:41,160
Get up quickly!

306
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,660
Urg.

307
00:15:43,660 --> 00:15:45,140
Get up!

308
00:15:45,140 --> 00:15:46,900
Get up. Fight.

309
00:15:46,900 --> 00:15:48,510
- Get up!<br>- Don't.

310
00:15:48,510 --> 00:15:49,670
- Get up!<br>- Don't.

311
00:15:49,670 --> 00:15:50,900
Fei Liu.

312
00:15:50,900 --> 00:15:52,570
Don't make a fuss.

313
00:16:00,790 --> 00:16:01,830
Brother Meng,

314
00:16:01,830 --> 00:16:03,310
you look good.

315
00:16:03,310 --> 00:16:05,190
I was quite worried.

316
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,250
Don't you know me?

317
00:16:08,250 --> 00:16:11,130
This little injury is nothing to me.

318
00:16:11,130 --> 00:16:12,800
This is nothing.

319
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,890
Now, I'm just annoyed.

320
00:16:14,890 --> 00:16:17,230
I have no lead for this case at all.

321
00:16:17,230 --> 00:16:19,520
His Majesty even gave me a deadline.

322
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:21,790
Oh, I'm so annoyed.

323
00:16:21,790 --> 00:16:23,920
What should I do?

324
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:25,360
Forget about the case.

325
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,350
You can't solve it anyway.

326
00:16:29,090 --> 00:16:30,060
No.

327
00:16:30,060 --> 00:16:31,730
Based on what you said,

328
00:16:31,730 --> 00:16:34,890
Xie Yu is really evil.

329
00:16:35,910 --> 00:16:38,860
I lost 2 Ministers in quick succession.

330
00:16:38,860 --> 00:16:41,730
So in Court, my power has been greatly reduced.

331
00:16:41,730 --> 00:16:45,030
If Xie Yu takes control of the Imperial guards,

332
00:16:45,030 --> 00:16:48,110
we will not be able to contend with the Eastern Palace.

333
00:16:48,110 --> 00:16:49,500
For your next step,

334
00:16:49,500 --> 00:16:51,520
countermeasures?

335
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,430
I have discussed with Mr Su.

336
00:16:53,430 --> 00:16:56,240
General Meng is father's trusted man.

337
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,350
He cannot be removed because of 1 case.

338
00:16:58,350 --> 00:17:02,200
If they want father to lost his trust in the Imperial guards,<br> they will strike again.

339
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:03,730
Especially within the Palace.

340
00:17:03,730 --> 00:17:05,060
If there's another accident,

341
00:17:05,060 --> 00:17:07,420
they will blame the Imperial guards.

342
00:17:07,420 --> 00:17:09,740
Mother, you will also be implicated.

343
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:13,650
I understand.

344
00:17:14,140 --> 00:17:16,230
Don't worry.

345
00:17:16,780 --> 00:17:19,110
I married into the imperial family when I was 16 years old.

346
00:17:19,110 --> 00:17:21,740
Being in charge of the Inner Palace for all these years,

347
00:17:21,740 --> 00:17:23,380
I know how to

348
00:17:23,380 --> 00:17:24,940
tighten the security in this Palace.

349
00:17:26,030 --> 00:17:27,890
I know.

350
00:17:27,890 --> 00:17:29,990
I'm a military man

351
00:17:29,990 --> 00:17:32,020
and cannot do things like solve cases.

352
00:17:32,020 --> 00:17:34,710
But I still have you.

353
00:17:34,710 --> 00:17:36,150
I won't help you.

354
00:17:36,150 --> 00:17:37,680
After your 1 month deadline is up,

355
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,160
you go apologize to His Majesty.

356
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,200
Tell him that you are incapable

357
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:42,370
and cannot solve this case.

358
00:17:42,370 --> 00:17:44,240
Ask him to remove your position

359
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,080
as an example to others.

360
00:17:46,630 --> 00:17:48,470
- No, no, no...<br>- What medicine are you using?

361
00:17:48,470 --> 00:17:50,480
I will get them to send you some better medicine.

362
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,260
No, no, no. Your words are...

363
00:17:53,260 --> 00:17:54,340
Why?

364
00:17:54,340 --> 00:17:56,900
Can't bear to step down from your position?

365
00:17:59,570 --> 00:18:02,340
I'm not someone who lingers for high position and power.

366
00:18:02,340 --> 00:18:04,040
If I lost my position,

367
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:05,090
what about you?

368
00:18:05,090 --> 00:18:07,210
Who will help you?

369
00:18:07,210 --> 00:18:10,290
You are helping me by taking good care of your backside.

370
00:18:10,290 --> 00:18:12,080
Since they dare to touch you,

371
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,780
I won't let them off.

372
00:18:14,780 --> 00:18:16,620
Sounds like

373
00:18:16,620 --> 00:18:18,690
you have a suspect?

374
00:18:20,120 --> 00:18:21,970
The capital may not be peaceful,

375
00:18:21,970 --> 00:18:24,380
there's only a few usual suspects.

376
00:18:24,380 --> 00:18:26,130
I have already checked around.

377
00:18:26,130 --> 00:18:28,190
I'm sure the case's

378
00:18:28,190 --> 00:18:29,370
mastermind

379
00:18:29,370 --> 00:18:30,950
is Xie Yu.

380
00:18:30,950 --> 00:18:32,770
In the capital, he's the only one

381
00:18:32,770 --> 00:18:34,250
who has the right motive

382
00:18:34,250 --> 00:18:35,650
and the capability.

383
00:18:35,650 --> 00:18:38,540
That means that the case is solved!

384
00:18:38,540 --> 00:18:41,400
It's solved!

385
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,530
Knowing Xie Yu is the mastermind

386
00:18:43,530 --> 00:18:46,100
doesn't mean that the case is solved.

387
00:18:46,100 --> 00:18:48,190
Especially you.

388
00:18:48,190 --> 00:18:51,380
Now, his Majesty is already <br>suspicious of your connection with Prince Yu.

389
00:18:51,380 --> 00:18:53,980
If you accuse Xie Yu without any proof now,

390
00:18:53,980 --> 00:18:56,030
you will look like you're part of Prince Yu's faction.

391
00:18:56,030 --> 00:18:57,950
Then look for evidences.

392
00:18:57,950 --> 00:18:59,850
Let me ask you.

393
00:18:59,850 --> 00:19:01,290
Murdering his Majesty's appointed envoy,

394
00:19:01,290 --> 00:19:02,930
how big of a crime is this?

395
00:19:02,930 --> 00:19:04,860
If Xie Yu dares to do this,

396
00:19:04,860 --> 00:19:07,140
will he leave any evidence?

397
00:19:07,140 --> 00:19:08,800
Even if you can find any evidence,

398
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,960
this case cannot be solved by you.

399
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:13,710
Why?

400
00:19:14,580 --> 00:19:17,460
You just need to take care of your injury.

401
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,110
If they want to use pugilist power,

402
00:19:21,110 --> 00:19:23,500
Then I will let them know

403
00:19:23,930 --> 00:19:26,810
who's in charge of the pugilist world.

404
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,000
Brother,

405
00:19:52,460 --> 00:19:53,880
You've helped me check?

406
00:19:53,900 --> 00:19:58,000
His Majesty has indeed asked Xuanjing Bureau to look into the eunuch murder case.

407
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,200
This case embarrassed the Emperor

408
00:20:00,250 --> 00:20:04,130
even if his Majesty still believes in Brother Meng

409
00:20:04,170 --> 00:20:06,380
he would leave this case

410
00:20:06,380 --> 00:20:10,340
to a Commander who've never solved cases before.

411
00:20:13,170 --> 00:20:16,050
Your hands are so cold,

412
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,830
No problem, I just used some cold water.

413
00:20:25,130 --> 00:20:26,960
This case

414
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,800
was supposed to be taken care off by Xuanjing Bureau.

415
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,550
So Xie Yu already knew that he doesn't need to deal with Brother Meng, the real person

416
00:20:33,550 --> 00:20:36,750
he needs to deal with is either Xia Chun or Xia Dong.

417
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,500
Xuanjing Bureau is every efficient,

418
00:20:39,550 --> 00:20:41,960
will Xie Yu really take risk?

419
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,210
He must have already made preparations.

420
00:20:44,210 --> 00:20:46,920
Even if Xuanjing Bureau suspects him

421
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,080
they probably can't find any evidence.

422
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:55,200
Zhuo Dinfeng, fourth on the Langya List of martial arts experts.

423
00:20:55,210 --> 00:20:57,590
It'll probably be hard to find clues on him.

424
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,200
Unless Sister Dong gets a chance to fight him.

425
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:04,800
And find a link between the victims wounds and his sword technique.

426
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,800
But at Xia Dong's level, it'll be hard for her

427
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,800
to find the clues off Zhuo Dinfeng.

428
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,130
There's also Brother Meng, he's the best in Da Liang,

429
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,400
Da Liang's champion is currently recovering in bed.

430
00:21:17,420 --> 00:21:21,170
Even if he recovers, what'll happen if Zuo Dinfeng

431
00:21:21,170 --> 00:21:24,340
refuses to show his moves?

432
00:21:30,870 --> 00:21:33,540
If you look at it like this, then even Xuanjing Bureau

433
00:21:33,550 --> 00:21:36,460
won't be able to solve.

434
00:21:36,500 --> 00:21:41,000
That is why I'm not helping Brother Meng with the case.

435
00:21:41,050 --> 00:21:43,550
What do you mean?

436
00:21:43,550 --> 00:21:46,420
A case that's not solvable even by Xuanjing Bureau,

437
00:21:46,460 --> 00:21:48,460
is instead solved by Brother Meng.

438
00:21:48,500 --> 00:21:52,420
How will the Emperor fell? It wouldn't be surprise,

439
00:21:52,420 --> 00:21:55,500
it would be fear.

440
00:22:00,540 --> 00:22:02,670
Since this case

441
00:22:02,710 --> 00:22:05,370
cannot be solved by Commander Meng

442
00:22:05,380 --> 00:22:08,130
then he may as well not solve anything a tll

443
00:22:08,130 --> 00:22:12,290
Once the deadline is passed, just go ask the Emperor for a pardon.

444
00:22:12,300 --> 00:22:14,400
You can't ignore it totally

445
00:22:14,410 --> 00:22:17,790
we still need to keep up appearances.

446
00:22:17,790 --> 00:22:21,050
We still need to investigate. If we can't find anything, we still need to appear worried.

447
00:22:21,050 --> 00:22:23,170
It'll just have no result.

448
00:22:23,170 --> 00:22:25,300
No result?

449
00:22:25,300 --> 00:22:29,000
Correct that's exactly what I want.

450
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,300
Elder brother Qingyao

451
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:44,800
you just came back?

452
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,800
I thought you've been at home, with Qi-mei<br>TN. -mei, endearment for younger sister.

453
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,000
Had a quick stroll outside.

454
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,900
On the night of the 2nd of the New Year?

455
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,400
Just a quick walk around.

456
00:22:55,420 --> 00:22:57,210
Did you just come back from Mother's room?

457
00:22:57,300 --> 00:23:00,300
Yes, Mother and I ended up chatting,

458
00:23:00,340 --> 00:23:03,340
and didn't realize it got so late.

459
00:23:04,250 --> 00:23:08,170
I'm going to rest now, you rest early as well.

460
00:23:08,210 --> 00:23:09,920
Yes

461
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,100
- Quickly, quickly<br>- Water!

462
00:23:20,100 --> 00:23:22,900
- Quickly, everyone!

463
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,100
- Fire! Quick!

464
00:23:42,100 --> 00:23:44,900
What's happened outside.

465
00:23:47,500 --> 00:23:49,400
Your Highness

466
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,000
Someone lit a fire in the Palace.

467
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,300
There is no worries, the Imperial Guards have already executed the culprit

468
00:23:56,750 --> 00:24:00,750
Someone attempting to light a fire in the Inner Palace,

469
00:24:00,750 --> 00:24:03,550
can I not get one peaceful day?

470
00:24:03,580 --> 00:24:06,210
Please be appeased your Majesty.

471
00:24:06,300 --> 00:24:07,600
While the culprit is dead

472
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,400
but he is a eunuch who's been serving in the Palace for 3 years.

473
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,600
Not someone who've just sneaked in.

474
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:18,000
I ask you, how are you in charge of the Inner Palace!?

475
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,050
I have neglected my duties, I will be more strict in the future.

476
00:24:21,100 --> 00:24:24,800
There will be no more such incidents.

477
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:29,400
Your Majesty, there are many people in the Inner Palace, there's bound to be a few that are devious.

478
00:24:29,420 --> 00:24:32,380
Her Majesty didn't connived with them on purpose,

479
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,600
don't be angry.

480
00:24:41,500 --> 00:24:44,050
Luckly the Imperial Guards were patrolling tightly

481
00:24:44,100 --> 00:24:46,400
and we didn't end up in a mess.

482
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:50,700
I won't set any transgression on you. But you must understand,

483
00:24:50,700 --> 00:24:55,400
the Empress has an Empress's Honor , but also her duties.

484
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,000
If you cannot complete your duties,

485
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,500
then I'll find someone else to do it for you.

486
00:25:08,300 --> 00:25:10,300
My Lady,

487
00:25:10,300 --> 00:25:14,600
his Majesty's words are too harsh, nothing major happened anyway.

488
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:19,000
And you've already come to accept your error, what else does his Majesty want

489
00:25:19,050 --> 00:25:21,210
It's so difficult for my Lady.

490
00:25:21,300 --> 00:25:23,800
No point in complaining,

491
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:25,900
his Majesty is correct on one point.

492
00:25:25,900 --> 00:25:30,100
Any problems in the Inner Palace will be on my head as the Lady of the Principle Palace.

493
00:25:30,170 --> 00:25:33,050
Noble Consort Yue, has no responsibility what so ever.

494
00:25:33,100 --> 00:25:35,500
But my Lady,

495
00:25:35,500 --> 00:25:38,000
From today, tighten the Palace duties,

496
00:25:38,050 --> 00:25:42,130
track all comings and goings between the Palaces

497
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:47,590
I haven't been in charge for all these years for nothing.

498
00:25:47,590 --> 00:25:52,000
I'd like to see who is attempting to stir up trouble.

499
00:25:57,700 --> 00:25:59,200
My Lady,

500
00:25:59,210 --> 00:26:01,920
these servants have all recently transgressed the Palace rules.

501
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,960
2 attempted to poison foods in the Imperial kitchen,

502
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,800
we found fire starting tools in 2 people rooms,

503
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,000
some hid wine in their room and others stole money.

504
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:13,200
Lastly there are some who've secretly passed messages.<br>There's concrete evidence for all.

505
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,000
Would my Lady please issue their punishment.

506
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,630
Death by flogging for all.

507
00:26:16,700 --> 00:26:19,400
- my Lady!<br>- Please have mercy, please spare us

508
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:23,000
Desperate times calls for desperate needs.

509
00:26:26,620 --> 00:26:29,000
Brother Tong,

510
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,420
Miss. Gong Yu

511
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,380
Come, lets talk inside.

512
00:26:39,550 --> 00:26:41,170
Why are you here?

513
00:26:41,210 --> 00:26:45,000
Is there something important you need to see Chief about?

514
00:26:47,500 --> 00:26:52,380
I... Its the 3rd of the New Year,

515
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,600
I haven't wished Chief a happy new year yet.

516
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,300
If I can see him, just once,

517
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,200
Chief, just went to sleep, the doctor said

518
00:27:02,250 --> 00:27:05,960
he needs to rest more. We're not to wake him up until after noon.

519
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:09,170
Probably not a good idea just to wake him up for this.

520
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,600
Do you want to wait for a bit?

521
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:16,600
You can then see him in the afternoon.

522
00:27:17,750 --> 00:27:22,000
Forget about it. I came here without Mr Shisan knowing

523
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,830
I don't have that much time.

524
00:27:24,830 --> 00:27:27,920
Brother Tong

525
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:31,550
Please don't tell Chief I came

526
00:27:31,550 --> 00:27:36,000
But didn't you come to see him? Why not tell him?

527
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:42,000
I thought that, if I could see Chief,

528
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,100
I wouldn't even mind if he scolded me.

529
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,600
Since I can't see him,

530
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,900
I don't want him to to be angry.

531
00:27:54,900 --> 00:27:57,600
Chief already said,

532
00:27:57,670 --> 00:28:00,050
that without his orders,

533
00:28:00,050 --> 00:28:03,340
I'm not to come here.

534
00:28:05,550 --> 00:28:08,590
I'll go now.

535
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,040
Slowly, Qi mei

536
00:28:18,050 --> 00:28:20,630
Gege, don't you worry

537
00:28:20,630 --> 00:28:24,670
my stomach isn't so big that I can't walk properly.

538
00:28:24,670 --> 00:28:27,090
Where is Brother QingYao?

539
00:28:27,100 --> 00:28:29,200
Why he isn't here with you？

540
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,300
We haven't been in town for nearly a year

541
00:28:31,300 --> 00:28:33,630
QingYao wanted to visit some of his friends

542
00:28:33,660 --> 00:28:36,670
He always not around.

543
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,200
Gege - <br><i>T/N: "-gege" is an endearing term used by females towards older males, or their elder brother.</i>

544
00:28:42,250 --> 00:28:45,330
Do you have something to ask me?

545
00:28:46,750 --> 00:28:52,090
Did you guys have any argument on 2nd night of New Year?

546
00:28:53,300 --> 00:28:57,400
No. Why do you ask?

547
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,100
If no, why Brother said he needed to go out for a stroll

548
00:29:01,100 --> 00:29:03,800
so late at night?

549
00:29:05,420 --> 00:29:08,750
He didn't go out that night.

550
00:29:08,750 --> 00:29:11,250
He said that father wanted to play chess

551
00:29:11,250 --> 00:29:14,210
so he ended up coming back late.

552
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:19,200
Is that so?

553
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,400
Minister of Ministry of State Revenue Shen Zhui?

554
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:28,000
Sheng Zhui has been investigating Lou ZhiJing's old cases

555
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,800
and trying to make up fake cases

556
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,200
to harm the Crown Prince

557
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:37,200
But I heard that Minister Shen is kind, and......

558
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:41,600
He hides himself well, and has some reputation.

559
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,160
Don't you worry

560
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:47,800
I have checked. He is in fact on Prince Yu's side.

561
00:29:50,410 --> 00:29:54,380
Crown Prince has ordered, regardless of what had Shen Zhui obtains from his investigations

562
00:29:54,410 --> 00:29:56,790
all needs be destroyed.

563
00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:01,500
If necessary, destroyed the person too.

564
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:07,700
Brother Su is recovering well

565
00:30:07,710 --> 00:30:10,710
we should make a day and walk around Luo Shi street.

566
00:30:10,750 --> 00:30:14,500
It's New Year and you ask us to go to brothels,

567
00:30:14,540 --> 00:30:17,000
Can you have some taste?

568
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,830
I am not going, you can bring along Fei Liu.

569
00:30:19,900 --> 00:30:22,400
Are you sure you want me to bring along Fei Liu?

570
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:27,400
Aren't you afraid that I'll be taking a “Fei Liu” and bringing home a Casanova?<br>TN. Fei Liu --andgt; Feng Liu (Casanova)

571
00:30:28,340 --> 00:30:30,050
As if you can bring home a 'Casanova', I think,

572
00:30:30,100 --> 00:30:33,900
we need to pray you don't bring home a lecher.<br>TN. Fei Liu --andgt; Xia Liu (lecher)

573
00:30:36,300 --> 00:30:38,800
Young Master Xiao, you really are pretentious.

574
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,200
As soon as I mention Luoshi street, is the only places you can think of brothels?

575
00:30:41,300 --> 00:30:45,200
Really, which one of us is the one without taste.<br>I want to take Brother Su to listen to some songs.

576
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,600
Brother Su, not even mentioning other things,

577
00:30:47,620 --> 00:30:50,670
the music at Miaoyin House, is a must.

578
00:30:50,710 --> 00:30:53,170
You know music, it would be a shame if

579
00:30:53,210 --> 00:30:56,130
you don't appraise it.

580
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,700
That sounds more interesting.

581
00:30:59,790 --> 00:31:02,420
Well, the new years celebrations are almost over, it'll be a good chance to visit.

582
00:31:02,500 --> 00:31:05,000
Why don't we meet on the 15th, the day of the Lantern Festival and join the fun.

583
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:08,750
Miaoyin House will also be playing the lastest pieces composed by Mr. Shisan.

584
00:31:08,790 --> 00:31:11,620
It'll be a great day to have fun.

585
00:31:11,700 --> 00:31:14,600
As soon as we talk about having fun you look so happy.

586
00:31:15,500 --> 00:31:18,540
Jingrui, I haven't watch you practice your martial arts for a while,

587
00:31:18,550 --> 00:31:22,590
we have some time today, I'd like to see how much you've improved.

588
00:31:22,630 --> 00:31:25,670
When we were in Lang Province, you gave me alot advise,

589
00:31:25,710 --> 00:31:27,590
they really benefited me.

590
00:31:27,700 --> 00:31:29,900
Since Brother Su is interested today

591
00:31:29,900 --> 00:31:33,200
how bout we head into the court yard.

592
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,600
Prince Jing your mansion, clean and concise with no decadent furnishing,

593
00:31:36,630 --> 00:31:38,880
with a martial man flair.

594
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:43,460
It vastly different compared to the mansions of other Princes.

595
00:31:43,500 --> 00:31:45,200
Minister Shen, your the new favorite of the Ministry of Revenue,

596
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:49,400
in this season, there must be a lot people wanting to see you.

597
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:53,500
Instead you've come to this desolate place.

598
00:31:53,500 --> 00:31:58,700
There might be a lot of visitors, but not many worth seeing.

599
00:31:58,750 --> 00:32:03,750
I hope you don't mind that I'm ducking out at your place your Highness.

600
00:32:03,790 --> 00:32:07,120
Not many people come here, so there's definitely peace.

601
00:32:07,130 --> 00:32:09,670
Please have seat, Minister Shen.

602
00:32:15,100 --> 00:32:18,400
How are you going with the illegal fireworks factory case?

603
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:20,400
There has been much progress.

604
00:32:20,420 --> 00:32:24,500
If it goes well, after the 16th as soon the Court resumes,

605
00:32:24,540 --> 00:32:27,620
I'll have something to report, if not

606
00:32:27,700 --> 00:32:31,200
it would not be later than January.

607
00:32:33,550 --> 00:32:35,750
You still dare to run around like this?

608
00:32:35,790 --> 00:32:38,840
Don't think that you'll be safe in the Capital. New years eve,

609
00:32:38,900 --> 00:32:42,500
there's still people committing murder near the Palace walls.

610
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,200
Good sword.

611
00:32:55,170 --> 00:32:57,800
Jingrui, you think you're very handsome holding that pose right?

612
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:02,550
When are you going to start, me and Brother Su don't have all day.

613
00:33:57,700 --> 00:33:59,500
Awesome!

614
00:33:59,500 --> 00:34:02,050
Looks like Master Zhuo didn't hold back.

615
00:34:02,100 --> 00:34:05,500
He has taught you the TianQuan sword without reserve.

616
00:34:05,500 --> 00:34:09,700
I believe your brother in Zhuo family is even more skillful.

617
00:34:09,700 --> 00:34:13,600
Brother Qingyao's skills are far better than mine.

618
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:17,300
For example this move <br>Flying bird into the woods

619
00:34:17,300 --> 00:34:19,400
I never got it right

620
00:34:20,750 --> 00:34:24,000
You are still young, there's always room for improvement.

621
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:25,500
Zhuo QingYao's reputation

622
00:34:25,500 --> 00:34:28,100
I heard even when I was in Lang Province.

623
00:34:28,170 --> 00:34:31,630
He is also well known in pugilist world.

624
00:34:31,630 --> 00:34:35,300
Family Zhuo will return to Tianquan manor after first month?

625
00:34:35,340 --> 00:34:37,250
It won't be that rushed.

626
00:34:37,300 --> 00:34:40,000
It takes less than 10 days to get from Fengzuo to the Capital,

627
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:44,000
They normally stay till mid April. <br>Also this year,

628
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,200
My Sister Qi is pregnant and will deliver in May,

629
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,500
by that time, I'll be a Jiujiu<br>TN. Jiujiu - maternal uncle

630
00:34:50,590 --> 00:34:52,210
and a Shushu.<br>TN. Shushu - paternal uncle

631
00:34:52,300 --> 00:34:56,200
Congratulations. The Princess Royal must be worried

632
00:34:56,210 --> 00:34:59,000
And wanted the young Mistress to deliver at home.

633
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:00,000
That's right.

634
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,100
Jingrui, why don't you tell Brother Su

635
00:35:03,100 --> 00:35:06,400
why your Zhuo Family parents are only leaving in mid April.

636
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,800
Is there big event mid April?

637
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,200
Brother Su take a guess.

638
00:35:12,700 --> 00:35:14,790
Jingrui's birthday?

639
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:16,900
April 12th

640
00:35:16,900 --> 00:35:18,800
Look at his expression

641
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,200
it's like saying "this has something to do with me, with me"

642
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,600
Seriously, when have you seen expressions talk.

643
00:35:24,700 --> 00:35:28,700
Chief, invite your guests to have some desserts.

644
00:35:28,710 --> 00:35:30,460
Lets go inside.

645
00:35:30,460 --> 00:35:33,050
I'll see if dessert can't stuff your mouth.

646
00:35:35,700 --> 00:35:37,900
You've only brought two retinues, I'm quite worried.

647
00:35:37,910 --> 00:35:39,950
I'll have Zhan Ying to escort you home.

648
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,100
I came on a whim, sorry to trouble you so.

649
00:35:43,100 --> 00:35:46,000
No worries.

650
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,800
It's dependent on you to clean up the mess caused by Lou Zhijing at the Ministry of State Revenue.

651
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:51,630
The city is not safe as of late.

652
00:35:51,700 --> 00:35:54,600
No harm in being careful.

653
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:58,500
Although I have troubled you today, it was great conversing with you.

654
00:35:58,590 --> 00:36:01,380
See you again.

655
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:05,100
- Zhanying <br>- This way, Minister Shen.

656
00:36:41,300 --> 00:36:45,000
The sesame dumpling taste great, did you put dried longan?

657
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:48,250
You can taste that? Are you a connoisseur now.

658
00:36:48,300 --> 00:36:52,600
Jingrui, how did you celebrate your birthday in the past?

659
00:36:52,630 --> 00:36:55,960
Nothing much to celebrate.

660
00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:58,590
Jingrui's birthday party is massive

661
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:00,400
Not to mention the amount of presents he received

662
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,900
The Prince Royal hosts a dinner for him every year.

663
00:37:02,900 --> 00:37:06,700
Letting him invites all his friends over.

664
00:37:06,710 --> 00:37:09,420
Jingrui you are celebrating your 25th birthday

665
00:37:09,420 --> 00:37:11,420
it must be especially lively this year..

666
00:37:11,420 --> 00:37:14,800
If Brother Su can come,

667
00:37:14,830 --> 00:37:16,080
it would be even better.

668
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,000
Of course he will

669
00:37:18,050 --> 00:37:20,880
Brother Su will still be in town during that time.

670
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:24,340
- Are you not going to invite him? <br> - Of course he is invited.

671
00:37:24,370 --> 00:37:26,590
When Brother Su stay at my house

672
00:37:26,590 --> 00:37:30,880
My family didn't take good care of him

673
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:34,050
I am unsure whether Brother Su, you are willing to come

674
00:37:34,090 --> 00:37:35,960
You've asked an odd question.

675
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:39,550
How am I going to attend without your invitation.

676
00:37:39,550 --> 00:37:41,410
You want to come?

677
00:37:41,500 --> 00:37:44,200
You are my friend and we are in the city.

678
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,100
I have no excuse to not coming.

679
00:37:46,170 --> 00:37:49,380
But since I'm a few years older, I won't be so boisterous.

680
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:51,800
Just don't think I'm too stuffy.

681
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:56,500
That's a promise then. I'll await your arrival on the day.

682
00:37:57,700 --> 00:37:59,500
You've certainly gained a profit.

683
00:37:59,550 --> 00:38:02,000
Brother Su will definitely not attend empty handed.

684
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,300
He'll give you something good.

685
00:38:05,380 --> 00:38:06,590
Brother Su,

686
00:38:06,590 --> 00:38:09,750
my birthday is July 7th, don't forget.

687
00:38:09,750 --> 00:38:12,380
You should've just been born a few days later,

688
00:38:12,380 --> 00:38:14,620
on July 15th, that'd be much better.

689
00:38:14,630 --> 00:38:17,420
Hah, you're the mid-July ghost!<br>TN. 15th July, Mid-July, is the Ghost Festival.

690
00:38:17,420 --> 00:38:20,210
Any boy born on the 7th Eve,<br>TN. Double Seventh Festival

691
00:38:20,300 --> 00:38:22,300
will hold feeling of loyalty and affection above all else.

692
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,900
I think Yujin is like this.

693
00:38:26,300 --> 00:38:30,000
Yujin is really like this.

694
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:34,600
Stop, don't praise me, I can't take it.

695
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:36,000
Brother Su,

696
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:40,000
I stayed up with Father this year,

697
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:43,000
he drank a few cups and forgot to give me my allowance.

698
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,900
My hands are a bit tight. Don't give him something too expensive,

699
00:38:45,900 --> 00:38:48,800
otherwise I'll look bad. Anyway he has bad taste,

700
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,100
even if you give him something good, he won't know it.

701
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:54,100
I heard everything.

702
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,000
Jingrui, truth be told

703
00:39:02,100 --> 00:39:07,300
no matter what Brother Su gives you, as long as he comes

704
00:39:07,300 --> 00:39:10,500
it'll definitely be a birthday you won't forget.

705
00:39:11,500 --> 00:39:14,300
Isn't that right Brother Su.

706
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:38,600
Chief,

707
00:39:38,620 --> 00:39:42,800
we've verified that there are 9 sword masters still in contact with Zhuo Dinfeng.

708
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,100
- This is the list.<br>- Good.

709
00:39:49,750 --> 00:39:51,090
Chief,

710
00:39:51,090 --> 00:39:56,050
should we have Mr. Shisan send more people to track them?

711
00:39:57,900 --> 00:40:00,800
Didn't your confirm their identity?

712
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,050
What is there to monitor?

713
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,550
Following rules in the Pugilist world, <br>go ahead and challenge them.

714
00:40:06,550 --> 00:40:11,920
No need to be too hard on them,<br>just enough to keep them in bed.

715
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:22,300
