Episode 41

You want to go back on your word?

I dare not.

But I sacrifice my son.

OK.

What do you want?

I want

your mansion in eastern suburbs

and the ship shop.

How bold you are.

Don't forget.

You are under my jurisdiction.

To kill you,

I only need to issue one order.

But if you don't satisfy my demands,

my son will tell the truth

and your daughter will die as well.

You.

My lord,

Congratulations, congratulations.

We at last have a case to hear.

The criminal is locked up in the court of law.

Shall we hold court trial now?

Hold what?

You two

take the plaintiff

and the defendant

to the court.

OK.

Open now. Open now.

We eventually have a case to hear.

It's time for us to stand up with head high.

Yes.

Go, go, go.

Too noisy.

Haven't you heard it? Official of Lawsuits Ye?

What good news!

How can you miss it?

OK, OK, OK.

OK.

I promise you.

When will you transfer the mansion and ship shop to me?

After the judgement

and before the execution.

What's more,

our family will leave your jurisdiction

and become freemen.

It's a deal.

Wei Wu!

Take them to the court.

Take

the plaintiff and the defendant.

My lord,

My lord.

Master,

The Zhangs and the Dais have confronted at court.

The case is handled by Ye Xiaotian.

I wonder

what turbulence this trouble-maker will

create this time.

what an anticipating thing!

Bring seats for the two lords.

Take the criminal here.

Are you Pu Jie?

Yesterday,

there happened a homicide case in seven-star pagoda.

Died in the case was the son of the subordinate Zhang,

Zhang Xiaotian.

Now, there is someone testifying that you are the murderer.

What has happened that day?

Confess what you have done at once.

Lord Ye,

I have never testified him to be the murderer.

Are you inducing others to suspect him?

You are the presiding judge.

It's incorrect to give priority to preconceptions.

I know

you have a good relationship with some people.

But if you want to show partiality for them,

I won't accept.

Subordinate Zhang,

I don't know

whether Pu Jie is the criminal.

You said that

your son is killed by Dai Chan'er.

But Lord Dai said that murderer is Pu Jie.

Pu Jie is here on spot.

I should ask him to clarify first,

then I can bring other suspects before the court. Right?

Nonsense.

His master requested him to plead guilty. Dare he refuse?

Without taking the daughter of Lord Dai to the court,

can you make it clear?

Nah, you.

OK, you know.

You know more than me.

It's your turn to hear the case.

I can

Leave now.

Lord Ye,

lord, you can't leave.

Why can't I leave?

Prefectural Magistrate Zhang has ordered subordinates

to besiege the court.

Everyone can neither come in nor go out.

Of course,

lord is included.

Malicious him.

Subordinate Zhang,

I have my own way to look into the case.

If you think I'm unfair,

you can appeal to the Prefectural Magistrate.

But while I'm dealing with this case,

I hope you won't interrupt me.

Pu Jie,

what's happened in the seven-star pagoda?

Report, report to lord.

On that day, we climbed the seven-star pagoda together.

Mademoiselle Chan'er reached the top first.

Then came Zhang Xiaotian.

He looked around and found no one else there.

Driven by sexual impulse, the guy wanted to do some bad things.

I hurried to the top in time

and prevented his evil conduct.

I didn't expect that Zhang Xiaotian flew into a shameful rage

and stroke me violently.

I'm the subordinate to the Dais.

It's natural for me to defend my young master.

So I did my utmost to resist him

and accidentally pushed Zhang Xiaotian, which led him to fall down from the pagoda.

My lord,

Pu Jie was not intended to kill Zhang Xiaotian.

He involuntarily committed manslaughter.

What's more, Pu Jie did all these in order to protect his master.

He hit back

because

he wanted to save my poor daughter's reputation.

He doesn't deserve to capital punishment.

My lord,

please make fair judgement.

You bastard,

my son is a well-cultivated man.

How can he do such shameless things?

Lord Ye,

his daughter was also on the pagoda that day.

She is also the litigant.

Whether his daughter is the suspect or not,

she should come to the court today.

The bastard didn't take his daughter.

She must be the murderer.

Subordinate Zhang,

I have no enmity with you.

Why do you insist on putting my daughter to death?

Is that because we didn't get along well with each other?

You have a guilty conscience.

You talk nonsense.

You, you give me back my son.

Nonsense.

Give me back my son. Nonsense.

Give me back my son. Nonsense.

Give me back my son. Nonsense.

Give me back my son.

Give me back my son.

Nonsense.

Give me back my son.

Now,

since Pu Jie has admitted all his guilt,

I think we can make a conclusion that he is the criminal.

But

Subordinate Zhang's words also make sense.

This is such a big case involving the killing of a person.

Mademoiselle Dai

was also concerned.

We can't

conclude the case without asking her

or prevent her from coming to the court.

My lord,

if Pu Jie is the real criminal,

it will satisfy all the parties.

But I think

there are some mysteries hiding in the case.

If Dai Chan'er comes to the court

and confesses that

she has something to do with the death of Zhang Xiaotian,

Prefectural Magistrate Assistant Dai

won't let you off.

You presume I want to join in their dispute.

The Dais and the Zhangs

always fight with each other.

Since I'm in this position,

I have to be involved in.

So, why not

wait and see?

Go with the flow.

Nonsense. Give me back my son.

You see,

in such situation,

How can I wait and see? How can I go with the flow?

My lord.

Nonsense.

You bloody liar! Give me back my son.

Bloody liar.

OK, OK, stop.

You two can stop now.

Anyone

go to separate them.

Back off.

Back off.

Stop fighting.

Back off.

My lords,

if you two want me

to try this case,

you'd better

obey our rules in the court.

If you continue to neglect me like this

and quarrel in the court,

please report to

Prefectural Magistrate

and ask him to assign other officials to solve your dispute.

This is

a murder case.

We can't underestimate it.

Subordinate Zhang,

you only make oral complaint now.

It's far from enough.

You should write a statement of claim

and submit it to me

And

when I hear the case,

I won't only listen to the statement of one party.

Prefectural Magistrate Assistant Dai,

your daughter

is also an important person concerned with this case.

She should also come to the court and stand trial.

But your daughter is ill recently

Since she can't

come to the court,

I will choose another day to hear the case.

Lord Ye,

You.

Lose your hand.

What's more,

if it is a murder case,

according to the law,

we should investigate on site

and ask post-mortem examiner

to check the corpse.

So

take the criminal Pu Jie

into custody.

Subordinate Zhang,

you

write a statement to me.

Tomorrow morning,

I will go to the site and investigate on my own.

After the investigation report is finished,

we will re-hear this case.

So much is today's trial.

Stand up. Go.

What's wrong?

Big brother,

You were so awe-inspiring just now,

much more formidable than that when you're in Hu County.

It's nothing to mention.

You see,

I'm similar to Hua Qingfeng when he tried cases.

Big brother,

Why do you imitate that bastard?

Who, who

can make you admit being defeated?

You misunderstand it.

Lord Ye doesn't give in.

But

they are cutting on each other's throat.

Our brother doesn't want to involve in it.

Right, right, right.

My son,

I'm sure to find a way to save you.

Pu Jie.

My son.

My son.

Jie'er.

What are you doing?

This bastard killed my elder brother.

Dad,

I'll revenge for him.

You bastard.

Dad.

Dad.

Tit for tat.

A life for a life. Dad,

Pu Jie has pleaded his crime on his own.

The bastard judicial official dare

propose to extend the trial period.

He is obviously taking his side.

Jie'er, Jie'er, Jie'er

Jie'er.

My dearest son.

What happened? What happened?

What happened?

Jie'er, my dear son.

He died.

Do you know?

Dead men tell no tales.

Officials can find out nothing since then.

Jie'er.

Dad, dad.

Dad.

Hurry to take your master home.

Master.

Quick, quick.

Jie'er.

Jie'er.

Pu Jie.

Pu Jie.

Pu Jie.

My lord.

My lord.

My lord.

Bad news.

What' wrong?

The criminal was killed in the front of the court.

What?

Go.

Eh.

My poor son.

Who did this?

Zhang Xiaoquan, son of Zhangyi's concubine,

revenged for his elder brother

and killed Pu Jie.

Why do you do this? Why?

My lord,

a good chance.

Pu Jie

murdered innocent folk.

He is supposed to be punished by the laws stipulated by the Imperial Court.

But Zhang Xiaoquan

neglected the laws and killed Pu Jie without permission.

What punishment does he deserve?

A man should have the courage to take the blame for what he does.

I killed him.

My lord, if you want to put me to death, you can do as you please.

My lord,

I have some words to say.

Say.

My lord,

killing the enemy for his family

satisfies the code of ethics.

Although he violates the law,

the existence of law is to safeguard the existence of social emotions.

Since ancient times,

to those who revenge for their family members,

the judicial officials deal with the cases leniently.

Besides,

this, this, this

Pu Jie brought troubles to himself.

There is no need to kill another man

for the reason of one who deserved the punishment.

Sounds reasonable.

Have I ordered to kill him?

But whatever it is,

Zhang Xiaoquan shouldn't kill others at his will.

Anyone.

Yes, sir.

Take him into custody.

I'll punish him later.

Yes.

Stand up.

Go.

Go, go.

Your daughter killed my elder brother.

You want me to help you.

Stop talking about your brotherhood.

Don't forget, Zhang Xiaotian is the legitimate son,

while you're the son of a concubine.

Though you're consanguineous brothers,

in consideration of status,

there's a big difference. He is high in the sky,

and you are low on the ground.

What do you mean?

second young master,

if you kill Pu Jie,

it will become a mystery case without clues.

Officials can make no more investigation.

And you

do this out of your vengeance for your elder brother.

Your behavior is in accordance with the code of ethics.

And conventionally,

the official will impose a lenient sentence.

Tongren is in your family's control.

If only you live,

it's easy for you to be discharged from prison.

What's more, you will

get considerable reward.

My dear son,

Pu Jie.

Good boy.

The rebellious Xiaoquan

is really crude and impetuous.

I'll

let him introspect in ancestral shrine for three years,

keeping him under strict control.

What's your opinion?

Kill him

to show your fairness?

My lord,

I think

since the suspect who killed Zhang Xiaotian has died,

now only mademoiselle Dai

knows what's happened on earth

that day.

So

we can't solve this case now.

But if we give up now,

how can subordinate Zhang

be satisfied?

Pu Jie has died.

He has no choice but to accept.

There won't be any new progress.

Right, right, right.

What's more, Pu Jie has confessed his crime before death.

Let's wind up the case with this conclusion.

Yes, sir.

Lord Tian,

Official of Lawsuits Ye

actually came from Hu County.

Such a muddle-headed official

is actually good at solving confusing case.

When the donkey doesn't want to take things too seriously,

it is also a docile livestock.

Master.

What's going on?

Ye Xiaotian

keeps evading performing his duty,

refusing to hear the case.

Not until Prefectural Magistrate Zhang forced him to deal with it

does he come to the court.

But in result.

What's the result?

In result, Dai Chonghua is more cunning.

He forced Pu Jie to be the scapegoat

and then spent a lot of money bribing others

to kill Pu Jie.

Prefectural Magistrate Zhang took advantage of it.

This case

was settled with no concrete result.

Two shops

can not satisfy you.

Still want my mansion

and ship shop.

Do you know how much

I have spent to bribe Zhang Xiaotian?

Only eight thousand taels.

This is an example of that saying.

Insatiable desire

destroy both the man and his property.

Drop him into the river.

Yes, sir.

Behave yourself.

The sky will turn grey and the wind will blow.

Birds are bound to fly far away.

The tide will ebb and the spring will return.

You are meant to be my destiny.

If tears are also shed

for you, foolish smile spreading from ear to ear…

If the dark night is permeated with the warm afterglow

the grass will grow and the oriole will fly.

After watching the starry sky,

no one will still covet the lights of the secular world.

Take me away.

Lock me into your hand.

After tasting happiness,

no one will still squander the wealth of the barren spiritual world.

Go with you.

Bland though the water is, it can cause drunkenness like liquor.

I don't have many sisters.

Cousin, why are you here?

Nothing, nothing. Go on crying.

There is nothing one can't get through.

Cry it out and you will be OK.

I'm OK.

I'm just singing.

Who cries?

You are singing?

An Nantian

Why do you come to our home?

Your broken black tea tastes good.

Go away after finishing it.

I heard

that guy

got promotion in Tongren.

Tongren?

I don't have friends in Tongren.

I don't know who you mentioned. No.

Oh?

Your house has a good view.

Go on.

What?

Didn't you say you have no friends in Tongren?

Forget it.

An Nantian.

You want to be beaten?

You are angry again, aren't you?

You two live close.

You can go to visit him.

Why should I visit him first?

Why doesn't he come to see me?

You can't say words like this.

You can go out to play as you wish.

But he can't.

He is an official. He can't always do things of his own free will.

A water-front pavilion gets the moonlight first.

Clear?

But my mother was ill recently.

I can't leave.

Aunt

suffers from this illness since childhood.

It's been a long time.

Conditions neither turn good nor bad.

What will change with your staying at home?

And this time, I have invited

a famous doctor from the Capital City

according to great-grandfather's order.

He will check and treat aunt.

You can leave without any trouble back at home.

Are you serious?

Of course.

I've been thinking about one question.

Why does the same thing fail in Tongren

while it goes well in Hu County?

Hu County

is under the control of mobile officials.

Things should be done according to the laws stipulated by the Imperial Court.

While Tongren

is in the jurisdiction of Minority Headman.

Prevailing here is the rules of martial arts world.

So among all the forces,

the Imperial Court doesn't count.

Even the law performs practically no function.

Who is more powerful,

Who is the leader.

So all this time,

I'm wondering about one problem.

And now, I seem to get the answer.

Gondiis.

Poisonous centipedes.

Uncle Dong,

what are you busy with?

it's you, Sect Leader.

Please take a seat.

You take a seat too.

What do you want to order

in this deep night?

Now,

I have one thing

of great and great importance

that needs your help.

Uncle Dong,

don't decline.

Yunfei has been to the sacred land.

If he can go with you,

I'll rest assured here.

But I will be worried.

If Yunfei goes with me,

there will be no professional martial artist

by your side.

What if something urgent

happens?

Sect Leader,

if you really feel worried,

you can arrange two bodyguards

to go back with me?

How can that work?

As long as I go into the mountain,

I can find the way back with eyes closed.

If you go with two bodyguards who don't know the way,

they may even fail to find the gate.

What's more,

it's not suitable to reveal my identity.

If you send bodyguards to go with me,

my secret will be given away.

Big brother,

if you are not in a hurry to let us return to the mountain,

why not inform Mr. Jia

and ask him to send two safeguards to protect you.

It's doesn't matter.

I'm OK.

Not that many people

plot against me every day.

Ye Xiaotian,

long time no see.

Miss Zhan.

Here comes mademoiselle Ning'er.

Why do you stare at me,

pretending that you don't know who I am.

I'm wondering where this big tomboy come from.

Big though it is,

it smells pungent.

At least I'm a flower.

As long as you're happy.

The house is quite big.

So

don't you show me around?

Zhan Ning'er,

why do you come to Tongren?

Me.

Nothing important.

I just roam around. Any problem?

No problem.

You just come in time.

I'm finding a person to help me at present.

You're in a good relationship with castellan Ge Duolao.

Can you go there to lobby him?

You're much more suitable than Yunfei.

Lobby.

What do I need to lobby him for?

Don't you want to

marry his daughter?

What do think every day?

Go with me.

What?

You want the whole Ge Village to move out

and leave the mountain?

Yes.

Why?

They live a good life there.

Why should they move out?

A good life.

Are you sure?

Any problem?

Think for a while,

What do they wear each day?

When they hunt,

they are stripped to the waist

so as to avoid scratching their clothes.

And what do they eat?

In order to exchange for some salt,

they have to tramp over mountains and through ravines.

What's more,

there are so many mosquitoes, insects, snakes and ants in the village.

Each year, many infants die.

So do you still think they live a good life.

But at least

they don't have many worries.

In my opinion, they need to fight with the nature,

the epidemic diseases

and also the flood.

So don't you think

these are troubles?

So in order to show your pity, you will

take advantage of your authority

to order them to move out?

It's the first step

to ask them to move out.

If they can adapt to the life outside the mountain,

learning how to cultivate,

and how to do business,

I will ask other villages

to go out one after another.

You know,

we don't have a large population in Guizhou.

Last time, when I went to Shuiyin Mountain,

I saw large areas of

deserted wasteland there.

It's a pity to abandon it.

The seven villages to protect the sect

regard Ge Village as the leader.

You won't

persuade those pedantic elders

in your sect.

Since you know they are pedantic,

We don't need to explain it to them.

We can play some tricks.

We are out of good intention.

If we can live up to our conscience,

it's a good deed.

So do you have any wicked ideas?

I heard that Sister Ning'er has come.

Where is she?

I requested her to help me.

You've gone too far.

Before serving the guest with a cup of tea,

you have driven her away.

So

you begin to restrict me now?

My hostess,

the thing I asked Ning'er to do

is an important one which is related to our future.

So if you think we treat her unfairly,

you can entertain her with courtesy and warmth after she comes back.

The important thing related to our future.

What is it?

Let me drink some water first,

my hostess.

The Sect Leader wants Ge Duolao to move to Tongren.

Why does he do so?

Is there anyone who goes against Sect Leader?

The grand elder.

Think for a while,

Tongren is under the jurisdiction of Minority Official.

Right?

And your Sect Leader is the official

assigned by the Imperial Court.

So

will he get along all right in Tongren?

What's more,

he is bullied by others.

Several days before, when he solved the disputes in Shuiyin Mountain,

he nearly died there.

It has been long established in the canons that

we are forbidden to get in contact with secular society.

Now.

Grand elder.

Ye Xiaotian is your current Sect Leader.

That is the rule stipulated by the former Sect Leader.

Why can't the current Sect Leader change it?

Elders,

I also think

It is nothing wrong to move Ge Village out.

Grand elder,

your Sect Leader

only wants to move Ge Village out.

Just have a try.

Dong Tian makes sense.

Ning'er is also correct.

Grand elder, what do you think of it,

Do you agree?

Since the Sect Leader has made clear order

and only wants one tribe to move out,

it's us to make decisions.

There is nothing wrong.

Let's wait and see.

Guiyang

Master,

I've prepared well

for your birthday.

Written in this book

are the guests we plan to invite.

My lord,

Another book is about.

My lord,

urgent news.

Plenty of mountaineers move out from mountains.

They take up Woniu Ridge

and carry out large scale construction,

building a village there.

Mountaineers,

Not staying in the mountain,

why do they come out?

I think

they are fed up with staying in the mountain.

It's reported that

they are prepared to burn the grass on wasteland

and reclaim the wasteland.

it seems as if

they won't live on hunting

and decide to do farm work?

How can that be?

Even if that is wasteland,

it is my territory.

They want to take up it

without informing me.

Go to Woniu Ridge

and drive them away.

Yes, sir.

When my ancestor took the position as the commissioner of Sizhou and Sinan as well as eight prefectures,

he invited the mountaineers to go out.

But they aren't willing to.

Now, they go out uninvited.

Our Prefectural Magistrate Zhang

wants to drive the mountaineers back.

He ordered me to hurry to Woniu Ridge

and negotiate with them.

My lord,

what should I do?

Woniu Ridge is

the territory of Zhang Duo.

I told you

if Fatty Zhang asked you to turn left,

you go right.

Yes, madame.

I will go there at once.

Mr. Wen,

let's sit high on the hill

and watch two tigers fight.

Castellan Ge,

I'm the assistant of Prefectural Magistrate of Tongren.

Prefectural Magistrate knows that your tribe comes out of the mountain.

He asks me to greet.

Why do you

plan to move out?

Life in the mountain is not easy.

Outside world is much better.

Eh.

Castellan Ge,

you should know,

this place

is under the jurisdiction of Prefectural Magistrate.

If there are only one or two households moving here

and building houses,

it doesn't matter.

But it's not proper to

move the whole tribe

here.

What is improper?

This important thing

should be reported to us first.

How can you make the decision by yourself?

Is it an important thing?

The Imperial Court has always been encouraging us to reclaim wasteland.

Allocate land to people according to the number.

And encourage people to cultivate land.

In this way, all the people can have land

and the Imperial Court can get increased tax income.

That is the territory of Tixi Division,

which belongs to Lord Zhang Duo.

Are you sure?

Doesn't all the land in the country belong to the Ming Imperial Court?

You.

Yes.

But these mountaineers don't have registration.

Only after being registered, they can be regarded as citizens.

And this is related to traffic permit, household cards

yellow booklet of registered households, taxation and conscript labour.

What does traffic permit refer to?

It refers to the record that can necessarily demonstrate

your working experience, trade contacts

and travelling experience.

So what is household card?

It refers to the document demonstrating

the native place of the head of the household, their level and population.

Do you understand what I said?

These mountaineers don't have registered household

because the Imperial Court didn't

arrange officials to census in the mountain.

Now, since they move out,

it's time to register.

It's also a merit of the Imperial Court

for providing benefits to the people.

Eh.

But Tongren is under the jurisdiction of Minority Official.

If they are not satisfied

and create some disputes,

what should I do?

Lord Jia,

calm down.

We should also think about the mountaineers.

We should think about things in the long term.

I see.

But does it have something to do with us?

Citizens have registered households.

But you don't have.

Lord Dai,

please tell me, how do you

get the registration outside the mountain?

The feudal government will register and record.

I see.

I see.

Lord Dai,

you can help us register

and record, right.

If Fatty Zhang want you to turn left,

you should turn right.

What if Minority Official in Tongren triggers wars

and drives them back to the mountain?

So is the current situation.

You want to finish it

without making efforts?

You think without fighting with others,

they will be willing to

give you what you want?

Is that possible?

Eh.

You.

Nah.

It's too late to change.

Things won't change whatever I say.

I will explain it for you

in the court.

But if you make some more serious mistakes,

you yourself should take the blame.

I see, Lord Jia.

Thank you.

Mademoiselle Zhan.

How is my solution?

How can people inside and outside the mountain be that different?

You are so wise.

But if it is not practical to negotiate with him,

Fatty Zhang may use force.

We should make early preparations.

We should go deep into the mountains,

undeterred by the tigers there.

Don't worry.

I know it.

Big brother,

actually I can't understand,

why do you ask Ge Village

to move out as a whole?

Tongren is under the jurisdiction of Minority Official.

It's not like Hu County

which is under the control of mobile officials.

So the original methods

are not effective here.

Only with strong power

can you exert influence.

What's more,

there is another reason.

if I cheat these mountaineers to move out,

a big problem will be solved.

Silly boy,

do you really want to let

those elders bring me

to the mountains to play with insects twenty years later.

It's your scheme.

It's

between us.

Don't you have some good news

to make me happy?

My lord,

there is really

something good to hear.

When I was back,

I heard that Ge Duolao's village

appears in Woniu Ridge.

They surround around Shuiyin Mountain and are eager for a fight.

Villages at war have

lowered their banners and muffled the drums.

How can that be good news?

Woniu Ridge is adjacent to my territory.

Stopping the war,

obviously, they want to avoid troubles.

And let Ge Duolao

fight against me.

My lord,

I think

if we can conciliate Ge Duolao,

on the one hand, we can show your enlightenment,

and on the other hand, we can frighten the Yus and the Ges.

Does it make the best of both worlds?

Prefectural Magistrate Assistant Dai,

don't forget

Ge Long's family

moved out from the mountain several decades ago.

From that perceptive,

Ge Long and Ge Duolao are the members of the same clan.

The Ges is now at my command.

I'll never allow the history to repeat itself.
