Eunuchs were reckless

and gave deliberate misrepresentations.

They made up the rebellion
of the Military Commissioner of Jiannan

so that twenty thousand loyal soldiers
were slaughtered.

My father wanted to vindicate them
with his loyal soul.

I’ll certainly accomplish this mission.

I’m Li Zhang, Prefect of Qianzhou.

Greetings, Duke Chang.

Don’t stand on ceremony, Prefect Li.

You had a long trip.

Has Commandery Prince An
found out anything

when he’s in Qianzhou?

Don’t worry, Your Highness.

He found the illegal coins accidentally.

I’ve taken over the case.

I’ll take care of everything.

Be very careful
and don’t give yourself away.

Your Highness, it’s an official document
from Chang’an.

When I came,

I saw the posthouse official
sorting and registering the documents.

In case that he was too slow

and held you up,

I urged him to register it

and I got it to you immediately.

Thank you, Prefect Li.

You’re flattering me, Your Highness.

Han Ji, Minister of Justice

Arrest Chu Chu?

Chu Chu?

Your Highness,

do you mean Yun Yi’s daughter?

You also know her?

Yes.

In an official order,

I’m asked to help you
arrest this girl in Qianzhou

and take her back to Chang’an.

But...

She stays with Xiao Jinyu every day.

I’m afraid...

What?

I’m afraid if we suddenly go arrest her

and have head-on confrontation
with Commandery Prince An,

it may hinder our big plan.

Let me think about it.

Well,

go to Guanling County with me tomorrow.

I’ll be at your service.

All right. It’s getting late.

Go back for some rest.

All right.

I don’t think
Li Zhang can outwit Xiao Jinyu.

I need a backup plan.

=The Imperial Coroner=

=Episode 22=

Summon Military Commissioner Chen Ying
to Chang’an with his troops.

It’s the secret imperial decree
Emperor Wenzong issued.

Summoned by this decree,

Chen Ying took troops back to Chang’an
to help Emperor Wenzong.

With this,

can we reverse the case

of Military Commissioner of Jiannan?

It’s Father’s last wish,

and it also concerns Miss Chu’s life.

Once the truth is revealed,

there’ll be a big dispute in the court.

We must be carefully prepared
before reserving the case.

Like Father said,

if we take one wrong step,

we’ll implicate more innocent people.

Don’t worry, Chu Chu.

I will vindicate your parents

and prove your innocence.

Your Highness, I trust you.

I’ll leave my father to you.

I don’t care

how you report to my father
about what happened today.

But you must send this to him.

Vice Minister Jing,

now that His Highness has known

you and Senior Jing send letters

and our relationship,

why do you still send letters

through me?

I’m not guarding
against Commandery Prince An.

Who is it?

The real enemy.

You must be very careful.

Yes.

Vice Minister Jing,

I’ve executed nine subordinates

of Military Commissioner of Jiannan.

They all claimed they were innocent
before they died.

But I never asked

what exactly happened that year.

Even if you asked,

they couldn’t tell you much.

No one knew the secret truth,

but some generals.

The more well-trained the soldiers are,

the more accustomed they’re to orders.

I guess when General Chen Ying
gave an order,

they followed him immediately.

They didn’t know what exactly happened

even when you executed them.

When they said they were innocent,

they were truly innocent.

Vice Minister Jing,

I know I’m not very talented
or virtuous.

I don’t dare to call myself
a good official.

But I never expected that

I executed some loyal soldiers

by myself.

No matter how I’m punished,

I won’t complain.

All right.

A lot of people owe them.

Hope we can make it up a bit.

Go ahead.

Chu Chu, you’re a coroner.

You got on with him for years

and you just inspected him.

You know

all his wounds,

right?

How badly was he wounded?

Why had he never recovered?

Five years ago,
he was in his early forties.

How did he know he was dying?

Don’t ask, Your Highness.

He didn’t want you to know these.

Chu Chu,

he’s my father.

Just like how much you want to know

what happened to your mother
before she died,

I also want to know

under what circumstance

did he know he was dying.

In his old notes,

he always said life was precious.

He poured scorn on people

who killed themselves.

He wouldn’t kill himself,

unless he had to.

Tell me, please.

There’re many old wounds on his body

that I didn’t know before.

But the wounds were recovered soon.

His broken leg kept torturing him.

His leg was so badly wounded

that even his bones were injured.

You told me that

his leg was badly wounded,

but there was hope to cure it.

It was held up

and wasn’t cured,

simply because of delayed treatment.

But it could only stop him from walking.

Why was he dead?

If he fell and was wounded,

he wouldn’t die.

But his leg was gashed.

He used to tell people that

he fell off the mountain

and broke his leg.

He let no one check on it,

including the physicians,

and my families.

So,

before I checked his leg today,

I had thought

he really fell and broke his leg.

Now I realize

he didn’t want others to know

his leg was gashed,

or someone might track him down.

So, he tolerated it.

Now that bones are wounded,

what’s the difference
between falling and being gashed?

There’s a difference.

Intact skin with fracture
There’s a wound closure for fracture.

But when a man is gashed,

Open and neat wound
there’s an open wound on the bone.

Blade
An open wound

would easily be infected

and cause disease on bones.

Such a disease can hardly be removed.

Also, Sir Witch Doctor

didn’t allow a doctor to check on him.

He used medicine personally.

As time went by,

the disease got down in bones

and then throughout his body.

Disease gets into bones
and then the entire body.

Then he couldn’t be cured.

How...

How did he feel?

I think he felt painful.

But the pain didn’t last.

It happened from time to time.

It repeated unless it was cured.

When there was the pain

on unwounded bones,

he...

He was dying.

He allowed no one to check on his wound

and he told no one about it.

So, all the time,

no one knew

what he was suffering.

What are you doing?

General Zhou,

you’ve got more fragrance on you.

You must have visited girls
very frequently.

What are you talking about?

I was thinking about taking you with me

when I had fun with girls.

But I realized that
you couldn’t have fun with girls.

All right, I’ll report it to Eunuch Qin.

He couldn’t, either.

Can’t you take a joke?

I’m not joking.

Eunuch Qin asked you

to think about where you got the money

to pay for your happy hours

with girls.

I know.

I went to Pingkang Residence for intel.

That’s where all kinds of men visit.

It’s a perfect place to get intel.

Men from Three Judicial Offices
go there, too.

In such a good place,

what intel have you got?

It needs time and luck

to get some intel.

Luck?

I think it’s your greatest luck

when Eunuch Qin hasn’t killed you yet.

You’d better behave yourself.

Check out what Master asked you to do

and report on your mission soon.

I understand.

Speaking of it,

His Majesty also cares about Duke Chang.

Why doesn’t Eunuch make use of him

and check the case?

Who to make use of?

His Majesty.

His Majesty?

What’s in your mind? Rubbish?

Did you get your head caught in the door

when you left home this morning?

Why are you so talkative today?

Just do what you’re asked to.

Tell me.

Is there any news from the Southwest?

Speaking of it,

there’s really something fishy

with Military Commissioner
of Qianzhongdao.

I urged many times,

but there’s no reply yet.

But some of our men
escorted Xue Rucheng to Qianzhou,

didn’t they?

As estimated,

they have arrived in Qianzhou already.

Xue Rucheng?

Xiao Jinyu,

look at you.

You hired a female coroner
and ruined my plan.

Now she’s a rebel’s daughter.

When I catch her,

you’ll leave Qianzhou soon.

Grandfather.

Do you miss your mother?

Yes.

I’m thinking

why my mother liked my father

and married him?

When she married him,

she didn’t expect
what would happen, did she?

If she knew what would happen,

would she still want to marry him?

Silly girl, what are you imagining?

Your parents were a sweet couple.

After your father’s family was ruined,

she didn’t hate him.

Grandfather, how did you know that?

When your mother died,

she was pregnant for eight months.

With you in her body,

she came all the way to Qianzhou
along mountain roads.

If she hadn’t protected you carefully,

you would have died.

If she hated your father,

before your father’s family was ruined,

she would have had an abortion on you.

She was beautiful and young.

Without the baby,
she would easily marry someone else.

I inspected my mother’s corpse.

Seen from her pelvis,

she didn’t give birth before she had me.

I’m her first child,

and her only child.

She escaped all the way here,
to give birth to me.

Maybe...

Maybe she really loved my father

and tried to keep his last family member

as the only connection with him.

The last family member?

Chu Chu,

did you know anything about your father?

What happened to his family?

Why were you his last family number?

Nothing. I don’t know anything.

I just...

I just guessed.

But I know

my father must be a good man.

It’s getting late.

I’ll go make lunch.

Wait.

I have something to ask you.

I can tell that

His Highness thinks highly of you.

He wants you to work for him.

But he’s going back to Chang’an.

What’s your plan?

I...

I haven’t made up my mind yet.

I’m going to make lunch.

All right.

Father left such an important mission.

I’ll accomplish it!

Your Highness, a message from Chang’an.

Lord Xue came to arrest Chu Chu,
under the command of His Majesty.

Go ask General Xiao

to take his soldiers to the Chu Family.

Without my permission,

let no one take anyone of the Chu Family

away from their house!

Yes!

Guanling Yamen

Sir, you had a long trip.

It’s my honor
to fulfill His Majesty’s order.

Where’s General Xiao?

He’s away for some business.

He’ll be back and see you later.

Magistrate Zheng.

Here.

Looks like I’ll stay here for days.

It’s my honor.

What do you need, My Lord?

Please find me a quiet place

so that His Highness and I
can have a word alone.

All right. I’ll find it immediately.

This way, Sir.

Come.

Lord Xue came to arrest Chu Chu,
under the command of His Majesty.

Sir, congratulations
on becoming Minister of War.

His Majesty showed grace on me.

I don’t know

whether it’s luck or curse.

If I guess correctly,

you sent your brother away
on purpose, right?

Yes.

Sir, I don’t dare to deceive you.

I’ve heard about what happened
in the court.

Now that you’ve known it,

I feel much relieved.

On my way here, I was thinking

how to tell you about this.

When you’ve already heard about it,

I’ll get to the point.

Jinli can’t marry Leng Yue.

You don’t agree on this marriage?

His Majesty wants them to get married,

not simply because he wants them

to be a good couple.

Have Jinli and Leng Yue known it?

I haven’t told them yet.

I know it’s hard for you.

Leng Yue’s adored you
since she was little.

It’s quite difficult for you

to tell her about that.

No, no.

You get it wrong, Sir.

Leng Yue and I are only cousins.

We don’t love each other.

I haven’t told them about it,

because it was quite unexpected.

I doubt there’s another reason for it.

Now that you suspect,

you must have guessed about it.

I guess that

His Majesty wants them to get married

to restrain the military power

of the Leng Family.

Sir,

they have garrisoned the Southwest
for so many years.

I’ve never heard about their disloyalty.

Why does His Majesty suddenly
want to restrain them?

Sir?

I don’t know the details, either.

Senior Jing suggested His Majesty

to marry Leng Yue to Jinli

so that Jinli could get back
Leng Peishan’s military power.

But the Leng Family has settled
in the Southwest for generations

and has been leading the troops.

As the head of the Leng Family,

Leng Peishan wouldn’t easily
give up his military power.

As far as I see,

you’d better go back to Chang’an quickly

so that you can discuss with your mother

on how to reject the marriage.

There’s another thing.

That’s why

I came all the way to see you

before His Majesty orders them
to get married.

What’s it, Sir?

Tell me the truth.

When you checked on Feng Jie’s case,

what did you exactly get?

Sir, why do you suddenly ask?

I didn’t know it
until I took over the Ministry of War.

Feng Jie made a summary
when patrolling in the Southwest,

but it was missing
when he went back to Chang’an.

No one knew what was recorded in it.

If Feng Jie was murdered,

the summary must be very important.

Now that you asked about Feng Jie,

you must have had a general conjecture

about what he recorded.

I came all the way along the route

Feng Jie patrolled

and got nothing useful.

If I keep moving forward,

I’ll be reaching the military town
where Leng Peishan is stationed.

I stayed with my brother these days,

but he didn’t tell me

there was anything wrong in the army.

Jinyu.

Sir, do you even suspect my brother?

I watched Jinli grow up.

I know what a person he is.

He’s very upright,

but not meticulous.

If someone makes use of him,

he may not know.

Well,

I’m just guessing.

Hope I’m having groundless worry.

There seems to be trouble in Qianzhou.

In case Princess Xiping worries,

you’d better go back to Chang’an early.

Jiangshan Hall

Your Majesty, I’d like to check the case
in Qianzhou.

Your Majesty,

it’s a long trip to Qianzhou.

If we send men there,

it’ll take a lot of days
before they arrive.

Also, no one in the Ministry of Revenue
or the other three ministries

knows much about what happened
in Qianzhou.

It’s not a good plan to send them.

What do you think, Jing?

I remember

Commandery Prince An is in Qianzhou now.

The illegal coin case is serious.

Our enemies may be alerted
if we take any careless action.

The wisest way is to let His Highness
check the case,

according to circumstances.

Senior Jing made sense.

I agree with him, too.

You interrupted me,

so that I totally forgot

Commandery Prince An was in Qianzhou.

Fine, then.

Ask Hanlin Academy to draft the decree

that Commandery Prince An
shall investigate the case,

without fail.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Who’s that?

Who dares to make trouble in my place?

Xiao Jinli?

What are you coming for?

I don’t know.

You don’t know?

You don’t know why you come?

It’s hard to explain.

Why do you always say that?

What can your tongue be used for?

Can’t you say something sweet?

You can do nothing, but eat.

Look at your fat waist.

Give it to me!

Well done, Xiao Jinyu.

You even dare to grab my food?

I haven’t dealt with you

for how you bullied Jing Yi last time.

What does it concern you
when I bullied Jing Yi?

Give it to me!

What’s going on?

It’s General Xiao.

Give it to me!

He and Miss Leng are fighting

for a drumstick.

Why? There’re more drumsticks.

Keep eating.

I’ll see if anyone marries you!

None of your business!

Why are you fighting for a drumstick?

He asked for that!

Jing Yi, let me ask you.

Isn’t she fatter than what she was
two years ago?

Stop, Xiao Jinli.

Trust me.

You’re really asking for that.

Anyway, is the Chu Family defended?

Come on. What exactly do you want?

Lord Xue came to arrest Chu Chu,
under the command of His Majesty.

Wu Jiang wrote it.

All right, you’re not fat.

Don’t interrupt.

What exactly happened?

Lord Xue came to arrest Chu Chu,
under the command of His Majesty.

What?

Sir, do you come here personally

with another mission?

I didn’t know

Three Judicial Offices could get intel

as fast as the Jing Family.

Sir,

I heard that

ten men from Imperial Armies

came to Qianzhou with you.

I asked about them when I came,

but I was told that they didn’t
come here.

I also heard that

Prefect Li Zhang of Qianzhou

also came here with you.

When you’re talking to me,

he’s on his way to arrest Chu Chu
with the Imperial Armies, right?

Jinyu, I’m sure you knew that.

The female coroner you hired

is a rebel’s daughter.

Prefect Li and I didn’t mean
to catch her

without letting you know.

We simply wanted to keep your safe.

There’s a lot of criticism about you.

But after all, you were deceived.

I don’t think
His Majesty will blame you for that.

Sir, Chu Chu isn’t a rebel’s daughter.

She isn’t?

But Han Ji was very sure

when he told His Majesty about it.

Sir, I have irrefutable evidence.

Stop!

Isn’t that Li Zhang?

Why is he coming?

Why do they stop me, General Xiao?

We have some dealings

in business.

What?

Your subordinates
can’t even recognize me?

At the behest of His Majesty,

I come to arrest the rebel’s daughter!

Whoever is irrelevant should leave!

Vice Minister Jing, Miss Leng,

I’ve got urgent business to do.

I can’t play the game with you

that you pretend to be
Commandery Prince An.

The rebel’s daughter?

Prefect Li, you must make it clear.

Who’s the rebel’s daughter?

She is.

She’s the rebel Yun Yi’s daughter.

Miss, surrender yourself

in case of being tortured!

What nonsense are you talking about?

She’s my granddaughter!

What Yun Yi? What rebel?

You’re in the wrong place!

Sir, if you keep fighting,

you’ll be sorry.

Take her down!

-Be careful!
-Father!

Stop!

Chu Chu!

-Go away!
-Father!

Father!

Chu Chu!

Father!

Let go of me!

Chu Chu!

How dare you wound me!

Sorry, Lord Li, that was an accident.

You!

Stop!

Minister Xue!

Minister Xue, Your Highness!

Your Highness.

Chu Chu, are you alright?

Prefect Li, why were you fighting

against Vice Minister Jing
and General Xiao?

Minister Xue, I was trying
to arrest the rebel’s daughter,

but they wounded me!

Look.

Minister Xue, it wasn’t our fault.

Prefect Li came here,

with these unidentified men

and he had no certificate at all.

But we’re guarding this place,

under the command of His Highness.

We wouldn’t let them break in.

You!

Why does Prefect Li have

so many tiny scars on his hand?

Minister Xue!

It’s some misunderstanding.

Prefect Li, thank you for coming.

Now that His Highness has come,

we’ll take care of the thing

about the rebel’s daughter.

Why don’t you go back
and take care of your wound?

Fine, then.

Minister Xue, Your Highness,

see you.

Go!

Leng Yue, Jing Yi,

guard here.

Yes.

Sir, come, please.

Grandfather.

We’re alright.

Don’t worry.

This is Prince Consort?

Yes.

It’s a petition Father left
before he died.

It was decoded
with reverse phonetic notation

according to two poems on the casket.

It revealed the truth of the rebellion

of Military Commissioner Chen Ying.

When did he die?

Five years ago.

Sir.

Come on.

This is a very serious case

where a lot of people are involved.

Once other officials know it,

I’m afraid there’ll be another conflict
between ministers and eunuchs.

We must have a prefect plan

and we mustn’t act rashly.

I understand.

Why do you keep his corpse here?

As you said,

this is a serious case.

I don’t trust anyone else.

Father was close to the Chu Family

before he died.

The Chu Family are upright and kind,

and they all work as coroners.

They know how to preserve corpses.

So, I keep my father’s corpse here.

Sir,

what do you think we should do?

Go back to Chang’an with me immediately

and report to His Majesty.

When the truth is revealed in the court,

Chu Chu can be exonerated

from being a rebel’s daughter.

Sir,

I’m afraid
we can’t go back to Chang’an now.

You asked to come to Qianzhou,

looking for Prince Consort.

Now that you found him,

why do you still want to stay?

A relevant criminal is fleeing
in Qianzhou.

I must hunt him down

and make him a witness for this case.

Who do you mean?

Xu Rugui.

The criminal

who is wanted across the nation?

Do you know where he is?

Kind of.

As Jinyu asked,

I’ve sent some soldiers

to guard all entrances and exits
to Guanling County

and sent other soldiers
to search Phoenix Mountain secretly,

disguised as local people.

We haven’t found him yet,

but we found some traces.

Phoenix Mountain?

It’s a mountain within Guanling County.

Tomorrow morning,

I’ll go up the mountain with my brother
and search for him together.

All right.

You must be very careful.

Yes.

Jinli,

I have something
to ask Commandery Prince An.

Tell me the truth.

When did you fall in love with Chu Chu?
