Xu Rugui follows Qin Luan’s orders.

For all these years, he’s been
secretly investigating my father.

Xiao Heng escaped.

Catch him.

There must be more secrets behind

Military Commissioner
of Jiannan’s usurp.

Qin Luan must have held something
back from the imperial court.

Maybe we can only find the answer

when we decipher the mysteries
my father left behind.

Sir Witch Doctor drew these.

He likes to draw?

He didn’t like it so much.

But right before he left,

he somehow started to like it.

He drew nothing else.

He just drew mountains and trees.

These are the views of Guanling County.

The mountain is Phoenix Mountain.

The river is Yong’an River.

The light.

Your Highness, what’s on your mind?

Does he always have
such thick window paper?

No.

It might start when
he began to like drawing.

At that time,

he bought many drawing papers.

Some were used to draw.

Others were used as window paper.

He said it was windy at night.

Air wouldn’t come through
if window paper was thick.

Chu Chu, pull down the curtains.

The Imperial Coroner

Episode 18

Your Highness, it’s done.

See if the other side’s wall
is different.

The wall?

Yes.

Your Highness, come take a look.

There’s a small bright spot in the wall.

I found it.

There’s a small hole that
has penetrated the wall.

It was covered by both sides’
drawing paper.

When the room is dim,

if we light candles in
the other side’s cabinet.

The candle light will

cast this bright spot
on this side’s drawing paper.

Did Sir Witch Doctor do this?

In the previous Sui Dynasty,
construction was often performed.

Once, 300,000 taels of construction fee

Rapid constructions
got lost abruptly during transport.

They found no trace of it

Transporting construction fund

until Judge found out
how they hid the money.

Then, the world knew the truth.

Judge

Notice
The ministers involved in the case

Truth came to light
used the principle of Borrowed Light.

They used the tavern wall
and the paintings to

design a map to mark the location

Borrowed Light
where they hid the money.

So they can split booty afterwards.

Treasure

This case was adapted into novels

and was spread widely across the nation.

I think my father learned this trick
from it.

Your Highness,

something went wrong
with the Chu Family.

Let’s go.

Your Highness.

It’s my fault. Please punish me.

Grandfather, are you all right?

I’m fine. But your brother is missing.

Grandfather, don’t worry.

His Highness is here.
My brother will be fine.

What happened? Who did this?

Where is Xu Rugui?

Your Highness,

we don’t know what happened earlier.

Xu Rugui suddenly broke free
from the ropes,

attacked us and tried to run away.

When we were fighting,

these people who dressed like bandits
broke in.

Xu Rugui was obviously their target.

We were outnumbered.

Xu Rugui escaped amid the chaos.

The bandits went to pursue Xu Rugui.

Zhang Yun is after them.

I stayed here

to ensure the Chu Family’s safety.

Rope File

Cut

Where is Chu He?

We didn’t notice that.

We also didn’t hear another fight.

We only found Chu He missing,

when the Chu Family’s seniors asked us.

Don’t worry, Your Highness.

I’ve already asked people
from County Office to pursue them.

How many bandits ran away?

Two.

Chu He spent time alone with Xu Rugui?

Yes, Your Highness.

Chu He brought food to Xu Rugui.

He spent around 30 minutes

alone with Xu Rugui.

Chu He?

This is a tool for carpenter work.

Xu Rugui must have used this

to cut the rope.

Why would Chu He help Xu Rugui escape?

Why did you allow

Chu He and Xu Rugui to spend time alone?

You...

It’s my fault.

Your Highness, please punish us.

Your Highness.

Chu Chu, inspect the bodies first.

Okay.

The dead is well built.

There are thick calluses on his palms
which were formed because of training.

The wound on his chest is fatal.

This man has the same calluses.

These people were soldiers.

Soldiers?

I can tell from the calluses
on their palms.

These were formed from
years of training as soldiers.

The training for soldiers

is different from the training
of martial art learners.

So the callus is different, too.

Soldiers?

Are they Shence soldiers
sent by Qin Luan

to silence Xu Rugui?

The group of people who broke in first

have Shence Army’s fighting skills.

But those who broke in later are weird.

Xu Rugui broke free from the rope

and fought with us.

At that moment,
the first group broke in.

They were determined to kill Xu Rugui.

Then the next group broke in.

They didn’t try to kill Xu Rugui.

On the contrary,
they tried to protect him.

These two groups of people also
engaged in fights themselves.

Those who tried to kill Xu Rugui

were from Shence Army.

The other group was here to catch him.

Catch him?

That’s weird.

No, it isn’t.

This is the fight between
the snipe and the mussel.

The snipe and the mussel?

Qin Luan’s Rugui House is the buyer.

Those who committed the crimes
at Qianzhou is the seller.

This originally should be a trade
that benefited both parties.

Now, Rugui House’s case
has been solved.

They’re now the snipe and the mussel.

Now, the mussel

knows everything about Rugui House.

They want to control Xu Rugui

and use him as leverage

to become the buyer.

What are you talking about?

I’m so confused.

How can you be confused?

Let me explain it.

His Highness means that

there are two parties of bad people.

Two parties?

Yes.

One side wanted to kill people.

But they were unwilling
to do it themselves.

So they paid for hitmen.

The other group of people

commit murders for money.

Think about it. Killing for money

is supposed to be a secret.

So, the buyer just know

whether the target
has been killed or not.

They won’t know who does it.

But now

His Highness has shut down Rugui House.

The buyers now know

Xu Rugui is the one
who collected the money.

So,

the buyer discovered that

Qin Luan is behind Xu Rugui

and tried to use Xu Rugui
to threaten Qin Luan.

I get it.

Then this is a double-cross.

That’s right.

Clear the floor first.

Jinli, your men are

more familiar with this neighborhood.

Please send more men to
search for Chu He.

Oh. Take Chu He’s dog with you.

It’s familiar with Chu He’s scent.

It can somehow help.

Xu Rugui is badly wounded

after this fight.

He can’t go far.

Pay attention
to the hiding spots nearby.

Okay.

Jing Yi. Leng Yue.

Go to County Office
and bring more people.

Clear this area.

Just tell them the bandits attacked.

Nothing more.

-Yes.
-Okay.

Chu Chu, come with me.

What?

Didn’t you hear it?
There is a breathing sound.

Someone has been following us.

No.

You must have made a mistake.

It’s our own breathing sound.

Xu Rugui is just ahead of us. Hurry.

Xu Rugui is very cunning.

Beware of his traps.

So annoying.

The forest is rainy. The road is muddy.

The passersby will leave foot tracks.

Observe the road.

Yes.

Your Highness, actually I...

You already know, do you?

What should I know?

About my father and mother.

You’ve interrogated Xu Rugui.

So, you must know everything.

He did say something about
your father and mother.

But those haven’t been verified.

After I verify it,

I’ll tell you everything honestly.

Did he tell you that

my father is

the rebel, Yun Yi?

Yes.

But it’s just his one-sided accusations.

We can’t come to a conclusion for now.

Can you tell me the things

you have verified

about my father and mother?

Xu Rugui is lying, right?

Bad people all lie, right?

I went to Xu’s Mansion to look for you

because Xu Rugui

left this clasp behind.

You’re saying
that Xu Rugui intentionally

left this at the scene for you?

Why would he do that?

At first, I didn’t understand either.

So I rushed back to County Office

and looked through
your mother’s bequest.

And I found out
that your father might be

an officer who worked for
Military Commissioner of Jiannan.

Then I understood his intention.

What is it?

He led me on the investigation
of your father,

hoping it can destroy
our trust for each other

and force you to leave

and become part of his team.

So,

what Xu Rugui said is real?

I told you.

It hasn’t been verified.

So we can’t reach a conclusion.

But you’ve already deduced that

he might be an officer for
Military Commissioner of Jiannan.

Then...

Is he the rebel, Yun Yi,

that Xu Rugui talked about?

That’s exactly why Xu Rugui is cunning.

He wanted me to discover this

when I was looking for you.

I would easily forget

that my original intention was

to search for your whereabouts.

Instead, I would go on an investigation

to see
whether your father was the rebel.

In that case, he would have more time

to get out of the pursuit.

But, Your Highness.

Chu Chu, finding your whereabouts

is different from the investigation
of your father’s identity.

The only connection

is the fact
that Xu Rugui wants to use it

to distract me.

What about now?

If my father is really the rebel,
Yun Yi,

will I get you in trouble?

Jinli.

General Xiao, why are you here?

This road leads to the mountain.

Are you going in the mountain area
to look for my brother?

What happened?

Chu He might have fallen into the river
by accident.

A clear mark at upper stream’s riverside
indicated that someone fell into the water.

The mark is roughly the same size
with Chu He’s footprint.

When we reached the spot,

we also heard a scream from Chu He.

And this dog’s reaction

also confirmed that

Chu He was once there.

But after that,

we found no trace of him.

My brother is a good swimmer.

He can get back to shore soon.

Chu Chu, don’t worry.

Chu He might have swum
to the opposite riverside.

I was talking to Chu Chu back then.

We didn’t pay attention to the river.

He might have swum to the other side.

Jinli, please take some men

and search the opposite riverside.

This row. Go search the other side.

Yes.

Jinyu, come over here.

What?

I haven’t had time

to talk about this with you.

Chu He made such a scene.

I think it’s about that case.

We don’t have time to waste.

Just say it.

I accidentally heard

Chu He and his father’s conversation
in the kitchen.

If I marry Chu Chu,

she will be my wife then.

Whether she accepts the family or not,

she is part of the Chu Family.

Even if you want to,

you have to get the approval
of Chu Chu.

Ridiculous! He is...

What?

They’re not related by blood.

And over the past days,

by my observation, I think

he truly has feelings for Chu Chu.

And today’s incident.

Today’s incident?

What are your concerns?

You found a filing blade

in the coffin workshop, right?

The guards also said that

Chu He spent some time alone
with Xu Rugui.

Maybe,

Chu He found out that

Xu Rugui is Miss Chu’s uncle.

He’s worried that Xu Rugui
may take her away,

or get Miss Chu in trouble

because of his crimes.

So, he let Xu Rugui escape.

He thought if Xu Rugui escaped

or got killed,

Miss Chu could stay.

So you suspect that Xu Rugui
escaped to avoid the punishment?

Chu He’s tracks

follow the same route as Xu Rugui’s.

Don’t tell anyone this for now,

especially Chu Chu.

But, do you really think

Miss Chu is completely

unaware of Chu He’s feelings?

Miss Chu!

Jinyu!

Your Highness.

General.

General.

His Highness. Hurry.
Where is His Highness?

I have something I want to give you.

With this Qiankun Mirror,

if you’re at a place without windows,

you don’t have to go inside.

You can use this to see the views inside

at the door.

Do you like it?

You’re Handsome Judge?

You don’t have to be so distant as well.

Don’t call me Miss Chu.

Just call me Chu Chu.

What’s the embroidery
on your handkerchief?

It’s a bone.

The fifth rib bone on the left chest.

When you put your hand
on the bone’s position,

you can feel your heart pounding.

Hurry. Come on.

Jinyu, wake up.

Jinyu, are you all right?

Jinyu, wake up. Jinyu.

-Chu Chu.
-Wake up.

Jinyu.

Where’s Chu Chu?

Chu Chu.

-Where’s Chu Chu?
-I...

-Hurry. Here’s one more.
-I don’t know.

Jinyu.

Chu Chu.

Are you crazy?

Why did you dive in?

I...

I saw my brother’s clothes in the water.

I knew that

he was trapped in the river.

He took off his clothes to ask for help.

Those who grow up next to rivers
all know this.

But you shouldn’t jump in!

But, I...

He woke up.

He’s alive.

Guanling Yamen

Brother.

Miss Leng, how’s my brother?

He’s fine.

He was just startled
because he almost drowned.

I’ll write him a prescription.

Later, you can boil it
and make him drink.

Chu Chu.

Deputy Magistrate Tan.

Vice Minister Jing.

Why are you here?

I heard that things
went wrong at County Office.

So I came here in a hurry

to see if my service is needed.

Why are you in the wild

at the middle of the night?

Foot Length: 10 inches
Foot Width: 4 inches

Foot length is 10 inches.
Foot width is 4 inches

Stride is 1.9 inches.
Slightly crooked.

He’s the man from that night.

Please do us the favor,
Deputy Magistrate Tan.

Go get some medicine.

No need.

I know where the pharmacy is.

I can buy it myself.

Deputy Magistrate Tan, please

bring some clean clothes for Chu Chu.

Yes.

I’ll do it right now.

Jinyu, open the door.

I’m fine.

Open the door.

I’m changing my clothes.

Open it! Or I’ll break in.

I’ll break in!

Jinli, I’m fine.

How can you be fine?

You drowned once when you were a kid.

You were so sick that you almost died.

I’m not a kid anymore.

That won’t change anything.

Let Leng Yue check on you later.

The water is freezing.

How can you bear it?

If you’re sick,

what should I do in
a desolate place like this?

Who taught you how to swim?

You’re not a good swimmer.

How dare you dive in the flooding water?

No one taught me. I learned it myself.

What?

You said Chu Chu was mad.

I think you’re.

There were many people on the shore.

Who isn’t healthier than you,
or a better swimmer?

What were you thinking?

She dived in the water
without any notice.

What could I think of?

She lives next to Yong’an River.

The kids in the town

grow up playing in the river.

You don’t know how to swim.
And you’re unfamiliar with the river.

She might be the one who saves you.

If I say I don’t even know

why I jumped.

I was already in the river
when I realized it.

Jinli, would you believe it?

You!

I think you’re under a spell.

On the contrary, I was indeed

under a spell before.

I thought I could
see through everything.

But, in the end, I didn’t
even understand myself.

What?

Nothing.

Listen up.

No matter what happens,

you must stay away from water.
Do you hear me?

If you dare to jump
into the water again,

I’ll immediately escort you
back to Chang’an.

I got it.

Have the men you sent to

search for Xu Rugui returned yet?

No.

I left a team there.

They’ll keep on searching.

They’ll report to me

once they find anything.

Xu Rugui betrayed his master
to save his own life.

They now want him dead.

He dares not to go back to Chang’an.

If you’re right,

Guanling County is his hometown.

He knows every bit of this place.

It’s possible that

he’s hiding in the nearby mountains.

The Southwest Mountain
has a complex environment.

It might take a while to capture

a person who’s familiar with it.

How about I ask Magistrate Zheng
to assemble the villagers

and search the mountain together?

No.

If you startle Xu Rugui,

the innocent people might get hurt.

Let me think about it.

Guanling Yamen

Commandery Prince An.

This is the map of Guanling County.

Are you responsible
for guarding this area?

Yes.

Guanling County has
a complicated terrain.

The mountains and waters are
perplexingly intertwined.

County Office Pingle Town Phoenix Mountain
When I first came to the office,

there wasn’t any road connecting
the county to the outside world.

Rocky mountain River Strop
Villagers can only use strop.

Villager
Around five years ago,

Prefecture Yamen allocated special fund

to build official roads.

Allocated fund to build road
Then, people are able to

communicate more with the outside world.

More communication with the world

But since then,

there have been more bandits.

Commandery Prince An,

I have reported many times
to prefecture Yamen,

asking them to send us more men.

But there hasn’t been any follow-up.

About this, I...

You’re feeling wrong?

No, I dare not.

Since this case happened
in your administration,

no matter what the reasons are,

you’re the one responsible for it.

If I hear another excuse from you,

I’ll report you to the Imperial Court

to decide whether you’re wronged or not.

Commandery Prince An, don’t be mad.

I failed my obligations.

I must be punished.

Stand up.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Point out every possible way

that leads in or out of Guanling County,

whether it’s a road in the mountain

or one on the water.

Yes.

Commandery Prince An, this is
where Country Office is at.

There are six rivers
leading to the county.

Failed to catch him. Still pursing.

A bunch of fools.

I still need to do it myself.

Jing’s Mansion

Master.

Minister Xue has arrived?

No.

Someone from Xue’s Mansion said that

Minister Xue went to the palace

this morning and will return later

to visit you, Master.

The palace?

The Book of Xiangjing

Your Majesty.

One of the records made by Minister Feng

during his inspection at the Southwest
was missing.

Missing?

Which scroll? Where?

It was lost before
it was brought to the capital.

I’ve read the inspection records.

The time and routes recorded

in the three scrolls are consistent.

There’s nothing missing from them.

Your Majesty.

I only knew this

when Minister Feng’s
accompanying officers

handed over the work to me.

Besides the three scrolls of records
already submitted to Your Majesty,

Minister Feng compiled
information of other affairs

separately in another scroll.

What affairs?

I asked his accompanying officers.

They said they don’t know.

I did some investigation
at Feng’s Mansion.

No one at Feng’s Mansion
has ever seen it.

Minister Feng died the night
before his return to the capital.

Did this scroll get lost on
its trip back to the capital,

or...?

Why didn’t you tell me earlier?

Your Majesty, don’t be mad.

This is a serious matter.

I dare not make a big scene.

I’m afraid I might be mistaken.

It might be left somewhere I missed.

Over these days,

because I searched everywhere
and found nothing,

then I dare to report to Your Majesty.

It would be fine if it’s just lost,

but if someone deliberately

prevented me from seeing the records,

it means that Feng Jie has really

found something on his trip.

Qianzhou

Your Majesty, ministers all know
that I was an Academician.

I’m not an expert in
military and political affairs.

Your Majesty, please allow me to

investigate Qianzhou’s prefecture-level

military and political affairs.

I’ll allow you to

investigate Qianzhou’s prefecture-level

military and political affairs.

Li Zhang, the Prefect of Qianzhou,
has been in office for years.

He’s been good at managing
military and political affairs.

You can take the opportunity
to learn from him.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Oh.

Who else knows about

the missing of Feng Jie’s
investigation record?

Only the few accompanying
officers know this.

I didn’t even tell the people
at Feng’s Mansion.

Don’t tell anyone about this

before you return to the capital.

Yes.

Eunuch Qin,

you asked me to keep an eye on

Shen Yu, the new Capital Liaison
Representative of Qianzhou.

It’s been a while.

Since Shen Yu came to the capital,

he’s been giving gifts

to every minister.

Even I have received from him

the specialties of the Southwest.

It’s normal to give presents and

make friends for a new minister.

Is there anything odd with the gifts?

No. Nothing.

Just some snacks or daily necessities.

Nothing valuable.

They’re roughly the same things
the other Qianzhou officers

gave to capital ministers.

Roughly the same?

What’s the difference then?

Are they entirely the same
or a bit different?

This... I...

I’m still looking into it.

Oh!

In the past, the ministers
were always talking about

the previous officers of Duke Chang.

I did some digging to see

if they have any connections with

Shen Yu.

I think

the story about Duke Chang
is just a rumor.

It’s not that simple.

Listen up!

Keep an eye on
what’s going on outside the palace.

Report to me immediately
when you get any news.

Yes.

And there’s more.

Not long ago, Wu Jiang
went to Jing’s Mansion

and gave Senior Jing a copper coin.

It’s from Qian Printing.

A copper coin?

Yes. Nothing more.

I tried my best

and found some information

from Ministry of Revenue.

But I just don’t know
the reason behind it.

A copper coin from Qian Printing.

Eunuch Qin.

Eunuch Qin,
His Majesty just gave an order.

What is it?

Xue Rucheng will visit Qianzhou.

The Southwest will get chaotic.

Xiao Jinyu went to
looking for Xiao Heng.

But all he found was a copper coin
from Qian Printing.

Xue Rucheng is also on his way there.

His Majesty

is contemplating
ordering a marriage.

And there’s Leng Peishan.

How interesting.

I’m free today.

So I want to play chess with you.

However, you went to the palace
early in the morning.

I heard that you had a long conversation

with His Majesty at Jiangshan Hall?

Seems that nothing can escape

Senior Jing’s observation.

I have begged His Majesty

to allow me to visit the Southwest soon.

Commandery Prince An left the capital.

Her Grace is worried for him.

Her Grace came to visit me
many times because of that.

Senior Jing, have you heard any news?

The situation at the Southwest
is complicated.

I’m worried that His Highness
might be in an adverse situation.

Yes.

Commandery Prince An is discreet.

But they had no experience

working with local officers.

This indeed makes us worried.

Senior Jing, you’re right.

Illegal copper coin case
involves many parties.

Commandery Prince An hasn’t reported

to the Imperial Court yet.

I don’t know

if he’s found out anything yet.

I’m worried that

if Leng Family from the Southwest
is involved in it...

Commandery Prince An
has always been prudent.

He won’t put himself in danger.

That’s right.

Their trip to the Southwest is
for Prince Consort.

If they can find Prince Consort,

who has been missing for years,

then the thousand-mile trip
isn’t made in vain.

I’m afraid it won’t be that easy.

Senior Jing, what are you worried about?

Nothing.

I was just thinking

if it’s that easy,

we should have heard the news
about Prince Consort sooner.

Guanling Yamen

Your Highness.

How’s Chu He doing?

Leng Yue said he’s fine.

She went to buy medicine for him.

Chu Chu, go home first.

But, my brother...

Chu Chu.

Don’t worry. We’re here.

He’s said to be fine, right?

You should go home

and tell your family that he’s safe.

Miss Chu, let me take you home.

I’m not going.

I have to wait for my brother
to wake up.

If I go home and tell them
my brother is still in a coma,

they will be worried.

You must go home when I ask you to.

If you really see yourself as
the coroner of Three Judicial Offices,

you must follow my orders.

If you think of my words
as unworthy of your attention,

you shouldn’t keep working for me.

Three Judicial Offices will be fine
with one less coroner.
