Episode 3

That's so strange.

I just saw

he was followed by two Captains today.

Captain?

Captain.

You keep a close eye on him.

I guess

he may have something to do with the case.

Okay.

What is it?

What do you...

Don't move.

Brat!

You never expect to meet me again

when you fooled me around that day, didn't you?

You are

Ye Xiaotian?

How do you prefer to die?

Just choose a good way.

I know you hate me.

What the heck!

But I got into troubles at that time.

What troubles?

I'll give you troubles today.

I and my wife

love each other since childhood.

I never expected that

the bully in our village takes fancy to her and

he forced her to marry him as his concubine.

My wife never obeys him.

Then we ran away.

That bully asked his servants

to get us back.

I had no idea but cheated on you

at that time.

If you really want to kill me,

I want you to do me a favor before that.

Please tell my wife

who is hungry now

that

I can't take care of her any more.

Please ask her to bring my younger sister up.

And then...

What happened?

She bites the hooks?

It's just the beginning of my performance.

Get up.

This is all I have.

I'll give all of them to you.

How can I take your money?

It's okay.

I'll stay here for a period of time

in the inn.

If you need help,

just come to me.

My name is Zhan Ning'er.

You're so kind.

So kind-hearted.

You must be careful.

Okay. I'm leaving.

You stay here.

Take care.

How could he be so poor?

Brother, you're back.

We are going to have roast fish tonight.

Brother, you caught fish.

-We also went out to catch fish. -Shhh.

But we got nothing.

Really?

You went out to catch fish?

Sister Yingying even fell into the river.

It's just because

we were not lucky enough.

Do you know that?

Got it.

I got it.

Thank you for taking care of

Yaoyao and me

these days.

If you really want to thank me,

just make a bow,

then we don't owe each other.

Alright.

Even the King of Hell is afraid of you!

Can you just say something good?

Come on, let me teach you.

Put your hands like this.

You're so troublesome.

Right.

And then lower your head.

Bend down.

Alright.

Now the ceremony has done.

When will we go to the next procedure?

You take advantage of me, don't you?

I beat you.

Eat fish!

Let's roast the fish, Yaoyao.

Hu County

Let's have steam buns with meat stuffings.

Bravo. Let's have steam buns with meat stuffings.

Hey. Captain Li.

There!

Where are they going?

They are going to have steam buns with meat stuffings.

steam buns with meat stuffings?

Do they have money?

How about we go to have breakfast?

Go to hell!

Follow them.

Here are your buns.

Buns are coming.

Yaoyao, you pick one.

I want this one.

Do you know where did he get the money?

Did he commit a crime?

Or he just hid it.

Is it delicious?

I guess

he must stole the money.

Stole?

If he had money,

why did they suffer starve yesterday?

It tastes good, right?

Are you full?

Yeah.

Servant.

Coming.

Check.

Thank you.

Let's go.

Thanks for your coming.

Have you seen the guys over there?

I ask you to steal all their money.

If I find one coin on them,

you will be dead meat.

Do I have to do this?

Crap! Do you think I'm joking?

Captain Li and Captain Zhou.

Please don't set me up.

I ask you to do this.

You just need to do as I told you.

If you can steal all his money,

you can keep it as reward.

Please come in.

Let me tell you.

We should

be very careful in reckoning in life.

After buying rice,

we will buy cookwares.

Then we can cook at home.

Do you know that?

Servant.

Coming.

I want some rice.

Okay.

If I buy some rice,

could you please give me some soy beans?

I have to ask my boss.

Alright.

Where is my money bag?

Don't run.

Stop.

Don't run.

Stop.

Where can you go?

Brat.

You dare to steal my money bag.

It's a nice day.

Li Yuncong.

Hurry. Catch him.

Miss, you can't blame me.

You...

It's you again.

It's not me. It's this thing.

Catch the thief.

Catch him. Catch the thief.

Thief?

Hurry.

Stop.

I gave you some money yesterday, didn't I?

You cheat on me again?

He is over there.

Don't run.

Stop him.

Stop.

We've been waiting for you for a long time.

Since you invited me,

I will go to the dinner.

-Qi... -My lord.

Ye Xiaotian

finally nods his head.

Put on all the things

we prepared for you.

From now on, you are Ai Feng,

the new Judicial Clerk of the county.

My lord.

I...

Well, listen to me.

You should play him well.

From now on,

you put on these things

and then tell yourself that

I'm Judicial Clerk Ai.

You call yourself subordinate when seeing him.

My lord.

I...

I have been here for a couple of days.

Many people have seen me.

If I act as the Judicial Clerk,

I should take charge of the security here.

Then I have to show my face in public.

In that case,

if someone recognizes me,

our plan will be exposed.

I have figured it out for you about this.

You tell people

you were robbed by thieves on your way here

and they killed

all your servants.

Then you think

the security here is a problem.

What to do then?

You want to check it out with the civil dressing.

That's a good point.

Tomorrow, every department of the local government

including the inspector-general and tax collector

will cooperate with you to make it big.

They will say that Judicial Clerk Ai

wants to rectify the security

and strictly attack all crimes here.

Good.

In this way,

the murders will know you are still alive.

Wait for a minute. Murders?

My lord, what about my safety?

I will ask all three shifts of guards here

to obey your assignment.

I will tell the inspector-general.

And the shift Captain Li,

you stay by his side to

protect him.

Yes, my lord.

Alright.

If

I do as you told me,

and take office right now,

will you give me the 500 taels you promised me?

I have something emergency.

I'm leaving.

You haven't returned the money you owed me.

Don't go.

Take it out. Take out.

Take out.

Just take it out.

I....I....I...don't touch me.

Don't move. Take it out.

Look at you.

-I have no money. -Take it out.

Stop that. I will take it out myself.

You take it out yourself.

Do it yourself.

Where is it?

I take it out myself.

Here it is.

What the hell? You...

Note. It's a note.

Don't forget to pay him back.

We still owe you 100 taels.

We will give it to you later.

-Do you have money? -No.

Don't touch me. I have no money.

Take it out. Take it out.

Take it out. Here you are.

Well.

Thank you, my lords.

Right, I have another request.

What?

It's very easy.

The last request.

I was entrusted to

send my sister to Tongren.

She will unite with her relatives there.

So, can you...

It's easy.

I will send her there.

Wait!

Well,

just send the little girl to Tongren

and keep the lady here.

Please promise me.

Did you hear that?

Send away the little one and keep the lady here.

Yaoyao is leaving.

In fact,

it's good for her to

live with her relatives.

They can take good care of her.

What's more,

the world is so big that

we will apart for sure.

Don't be so sad.

It's so strange that

why they just send her away

but keep me here.

These officials are as smart as foxes.

They will never let you go.

Do you think so?

They want to control me by keeping you here.

If you are not here,

I will run away.

And they can do nothing.

Is that true?

Well, I am your burden.

Forget it.

I don't care if you are a burden or not.

Why did you touch me?

It's you

who leaned on my shoulder.

I can touch you, but you can't touch me.

Then may I ask what logic it is?

My logic.

Hu County

My lord.

Lord Ai, this way please.

Let's go.

Do you mean

that we should kill him

after a period of time.

He could die, but we can't.

Just try to fight a losing battle.

Scholar Xu, what does it write?

It writes that,

because our county is lack of a Judicial Clerk,

there are more and more thieves now,

every people here is worried about it.

Now, we have Lord Ai to be our Judicial Clerk,

he will take office soon.

Every local people can visit him

if you want to prosecute.

We hereby

put up this post to tell you all.

What the hell is that?

We don't understand it.

Scholar Xu.

Please explain it for us.

Uncle.

What it writes is not complicated.

It just tells us the Judicial Clerk surnamed Ai will take office here,

if you want to prosecute,

you can turn to him at any time.

Well, we understand it.

Thank you.

Father.

How could it be another Judicial Clerk?

I guess the officials

want to use the fake one to

seduce the murders.

But it's a terrible crime.

Are these officials really so bold?

What they are thinking about

is none of our business.

The superior says that

although Judicial Clerk Ai was killed,

we should continue investigating where the military defense map is.

So they just use the fake one.

Maybe they could fish out the murder who killed Ai Feng.

And I guess the murder

may have something to do with the map.

Give it back to me.

You can't behave like this.

Stop that. I'm reading.

Give it to me.

Give it back to me.

Stop.

Boyi.

Boyi.

I asked you not to go to my house because I don't want to hear people's gossip.

Why do you come to the school?

Rest assured. I was careful.

I have washed your clothes and take them here.

Alright.

You don't come here anymore.

Remember that.

Miss.

Where are you going?

Let go of me.

-Have fun with us. -Let me go.

What are you doing?

In broad daylight,

you dare to be so rude to this lady.

She is much prettier.

What are you doing?

Don't come over.

I'm telling you.

I have a lot of brothers,

and they are very strong.

Really?

Then just call your brother to fight with me.

It turns out that I am so awesome.

Let me teach you a good lesson.

In broad daylight,

you dare to be so rude to this lady.

Bitch, you dare to beat me.

Buddies, come on.

Are they dead?

Just pass out.

Bravo.

Sister, you are so capable.

Why do you follow me?

I...I want to treat you this.

I don't want to eat.

Are you from Shiqian Prefecture?

Actually I haven't visited that place.

How about that?

You invite me to your home.

I won't mind that.

But I will.

I will stay here for a period of time.

I am not hurry to go home.

Then when will you go home.

I haven't decided it yet.

I have to ask him.

Who is he?

It's my secret.

Secret?

Where is Yingying?

We have been looking for her towards the Capital City for a long time.

It's impossible for her to travel so long a distance.

Will she be bullied by bad people?

Ge Long.

You care so much about Yingying.

You really care about her.

But she doesn't know

your love for her.

It doesn't matter.

One day,

she will understand it.

He is really annoying.

Emergency!

Somebody help!

Help!

Somebody help!

Help!

It's emergency!

Come on!

I am the Judicial Clerk. What happened?

My lord. You come at the right time.

Please stop them.

They're fighting.

The scholars are fighting.

It's you.

I've met you at the Huangxian County.

Who are you?

Another bowl .

You are the Judicial Clerk here?!

You!

I know you.

I'm the Judicial Clerk here.

My name is Ai Feng.

When I met you that day,

I was on my way here to take post.

Take post?

But I saw no cart or servants be with you that day.

Are you telling a lie?

Well, I am low profile.

Let me explain, it's a long story.

In fact...

Don't tell stories.

It's emergency.

My lord. Please be hurry.

Please stop them right now.

Right.

What's the rush?

They are just scholars who only know

how to talk glibly and write articles.

What mess could they make?

It's no big deal.

Stop fighting.

Stop. Stop.

How can you do this?

You are scholars.

Don't you know that?

Stop.

Stop.

Bastard.

Judicial Clerk, you can't use a knife.

I won't hurt them.

I just want to scare them.

If they take your knife,

it would become more dangerous.

What do you mean?

Stop. Stop.

Where are they?

Coward.

You all stop!

You like it?

Not very much.

I have read some more exciting

when I was in the Capital City.

They are fighting.

How can you read this?

I have got used to it.

If they don't fight someday,

that will be strange.

Do you think they are scholars?

They are not.

They are the second generation of

some stockaded villages and towns.

I guess you are an official

since you dress like this.

Not at a high rank.

It's not worth to mention.

Watch out.

They fight each other

once per three or five days.

You should get used to it.

Can you tell me you scholars...

I'm not scholar.

I just study with them.

My father founded a school here,

so I can study with them.

Tell me.

Why did your father found the school?

Just because he is rich.

They don't behave like a scholar.

They are beasts.

Look. Look.

Fatty. Are you scolding me?

We often play jokes by calling you beast.

Why do you react like this now?

Do you pick a quarrel with me?

I do pick a quarrel with you, so what?

What would you do?

One by one.

Come on. Beat me.

You may kill me but you may never insult me.

Come on. Beat me. On my face.

How can I stop them fighting?

I have an idea.

I don't believe you.

Stop! Beasts and bastards.

Stop.

After him.

After him. Don't run.

Brother, I'm exhausted.

How about this?

We split up,

I attract their attention

and then you will be safe.

Go.

Thank you.

Which one?

Tell me which one?

Fool.

I don't need to run faster than them.

I just need to run faster than you.

Stop. Don't run.

Over there.

Why are you chasing after me?

Don't run. Don't let him go.

Stop.

Stop.

Don't run. Stop.

After him. Now.

I didn't expect that you are full of sentiment.

My name is Luo Yuan, another name is Daheng.

You are elder than me.

Just call me Daheng.

My surname is AI.

You can call me Ai Feng.

Brother Ai.

Today,

we feel like old friends at the first meeting.

I should call you big brother.

But we just know each other.

Brother. It's not true.

It is said that it's hard to find a bosom friend in life.

We like each other

I will treat you Osmanthus Jelly.

What's wrong?

This is Osmanthus Jelly?

No. It's a snake.

You...take it away from me.

Don't be afraid. Brother. It's non-poisonous.

I told you take it away from me.

Take it away.

Those bastards

put a frog in my bag last time.

And this time they put a snake.

And what about next time?

I'm expecting now.

Once I hear the ring,

I feel so fresh.

What you say is really true.

But you can just watch them from afar.

A real man is not dirty.

I really don't know you are a real man.

Tell you the truth. I don't dare to.

What do you mean?

I heard that the Miao people in the mountains

know how to use Mojo.

That is a special skill of them.

You shouldn't mess with them.

In case they put an insect on you,

you will suffer a lot.

Does so magical thing really exist in the world?

But it's pity.

I have spent a lot of money,

but they don't teach me this skill.

Your family is rich.

Even if you can't be an official in the future,

you still can live a good life.

Why do you want to learn this skill?

Brother.

In fact, I don't want to learn too much.

I just want one thing.

I just want the insect which can cause people to fart endlessly.

Fart insect?

I want to use it on the teacher

and also the students.

Then they all fart in class.

So they can't go to school

and they don't need to go to school.

I think

you are really unreasonable.

Young lord.

Tao Tao.

This is the cook of my family, her name is Tao Tao.

Young lord.

Why are you here?

If your father knows you are not at school,

he will punish you.

How can I study there?

They are fighting.

Tell me how I can go to school.

They are fighting again?!

That's true.

Why are you unhappy?

This a good thing.

They are all fighting.

They don't need to go to school,

neither do I.

Well. Let me introduce to you.

This is my brother, Ai Feng.

He is the Judicial Clerk here.

Nice to meet you, Lord Ai.

Brother.

That Ai Feng has been killed by us.

Why is there another Ai Feng?

That one has died,

so this one must be fake.

How about we kill him?

This case has influenced our Heavenly King's benefits.

We shouldn't cause complication.

Magistrate Hua just wants to

cheat the Imperial Court by doing this.

We can just ignore the fake one.

Brother, this is my home.

Father.

Bastard.

Don't call me father.

Come over here.

Father, this man is my buddy.

Please show a little respect to me.

What time is it now?

You should be in the school now.

Why do you come home?

Father, listen to me.

What do you want to say?

I have asked Master Gu.

He said that you got no score in the exam last month.

I ate something wrong last month.

What about this month?

I have the runs this month.

Well, what about next month?

I haven't thought about it.

Stomach.

Take out your test paper.

Let me have a look at it.

I have no test paper. Really.

I feel stomachache.

I don't believe you.

I want to see the doctor.

Loose your hand.

Loose it.

Bastard.

You want to give me a surprise, don't you?

Father. This is...

I made a good score,

so they feel jealous and

want you to beat me when seeing it.

You shouldn't fall into the trap, father.

That's too bad.

I have fallen into it.

Men.

Take him inside. I'll teach him a good lesson.

Father. Please don't.

Young lord. Let's go.

Sorry, Young lord. Master, you...

Let's go, Young lord.

Wait for me, brother.

I'll be right back.

You've just been here,

how can you be so reckless?

If anything happens to you,

how can I bear the responsibility?

You're afraid that I may run away, aren't you?

That's not possible.

You are true to your words.

You will keep your words, right?

Why are you following me now

and talking so much?

You just ran away so fast just now

when we were at the school.

Do you think you are an official?

You think you can teach me?

I'm warning you. Ye Xiaotian.

If it is not because of you...

Brother.

Brother.

Brother.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

What is this?

Cushion.

Why do you come out?

Are you serious, brother?

My father only has one son.

He won't beat me.

He just scolded me.

Brother. Let's become sworn brothers.

Stop there. Don't be crazy.

You go back.

Brother.

I really like you.

Do you think we can be sworn brothers at free will?

I have my conditions.

My father told me that

any problems which could be solved by money

are not real problems.

Are you humiliating me?

Or your brother?

If you want to be my brother, I will give you 50 taels every month.

I will give you 50 taels every month.

Cut the cock head and

hold the ceremony now!

You are full of sentiment.

Big brother.

Brother.

Give me the money.

What?

Protection racket.

I'll give it to you next month, okay?

Fine.

Give me another 10 taels as the interest.

You're a real man.

Boyi.

You're back.

Don't worry.

I went into the house in the darkness.

Nobody saw me.

Give me your bag.

Come inside.

Wipe your hands first.

I have just finished cooking.

Have dinner when they are still hot.

Come on. Wipe your hands.

Tao Tao, I...

I know.

You need money in studying.

I have some money.

You take it first.

Tao Tao, I...

I know.

We don't get married.

You are afraid that neighbors may laugh at you.

Right?

You have dinner first.

And then go to study.

I'm leaving now.

Eat.

Miss.

Miss.

Mr. Xu.

Why are you here?

I'm here for you.

I've been here for several days.

I said I wanted to pay you a visit at home.

Miss. It's...

I'm going to have the monthly exam soon.

I really have no time.

How about we change the time?

I understand.

We can change the time.

Okay.

Okay.

Master Gu.

Boyi.

I will hold them for you.

He is so gentle.

I'm leaving.

Okay.

The young man honors his teacher and he is really promising.

Miss.

Mr. Xu.

Miss.

Do you know that

you can't

step inside the school at free will?

Really?

You should leave now.

Thanks for telling me.

Please.

Who is he?

He is Xu Boyi.

He just came back from a journey.

How can he make the pretty girl obey him?

He is really capable.

I heard he was engaged in his childhood.

I guess it shouldn't be this lady.

They are fighting.

Li.

Tell me one time again if you have guts.

Right.

I dare to say anything.

All of you are coward.

I will kill you, believe it or not?

Come on.

What are you doing?

What are you quarrelling for?

You don't care if you lose your fathers face, do you?

You fat ass.

Shut your mouth!

I haven't dealt with you for what happened yesterday.

What can you do

except losing your father's face?

What can you do?

Is it funny to fight like this?

Let me tell you.

If you want to fight, just fight as real men.

Don't behave like women.

Gather your people

and pick a spacious place.

Just fight a fierce fight.

No problem.

We will have the final fight tomorrow.

Please come to the scene.

I will.

Listen to me.

I will wait for you tomorrow afternoon

at the Huadaxian Mountain.

As you wish.

Just wait.

Wait for us.

Wait for us.

It's so expecting.
