Original subtitles

Boss,

he had lived in Fujian for years when he was young.

The dishes that Dayang cooked are also from the south.

They don't call this dish "spring cakes", they call it "moistening cakes".

Just wait until you get used to this flavor,

you will find that it's delicious.

Head constable Yang is obviously from Jiangxi.

Why had he lived in Fujian for years

when he was young?

I don't know.

Sir, please try it.

No need.

I had breakfast.

Sir, you are so picky,

you must have not been well-loved when you were a kid.

Were you well-loved when you were a kid?

Of course.

I wasn't picky at all, I ate whatever I had.

My mother said when she came to the temple,

a group of kids was eating there.

I was the one enjoying my meal the most.

She liked me at first sight.

I hope that I can save enough money soon

to look for my biological parents.

You are an orphan?

I got lost as a child,

separated from my family.

I lived in the brothel for a while

until my adoptive mother adopted me.

Sir,

I know that the Embroidered Uniform Guards have great abilities.

I also know that you are good at espionage.

Spies are everywhere.

So if I do well this time,

and we can catch the perpetrator soon,

can you help me

find my real parents, sir?

If you help me,

then maybe I will find my family soon.

Today, I invited you here for a meal

to ask for help.

Mom.

Mom.

Do you truly want to find your family?

Since I was a kid,

I have never seen my family,

I don't know if they are dead or alive.

I hope you can help me.

If you help me,

I am willing to invite you for another meal.

So you're saying that if I help you,

I will have to eat these vegetarian dishes again?

The food here,

the ingredients were taken from the official post's kitchen.

They didn't cost you money.

How do you know?

But it's not important.

The importance doesn't lie in how much money was spent,

but in the good heart intention.

Sir, I know you understand it.

But the ingredients weren't bought by you,

the dishes were cooked by Yang Yue,

the wine is also mine.

I really want to know

where is your good intention?

No, I washed all those vegetables.

And this dish, this dish,

and also that soup,

I made those.

Dayang just came at the right time to help me.

That one,

your cake was also rolled by me.

They are my good heart intention.

Sir, I will roll a big one for you.

No need.

Don't put enteromorpha in.

OK, I got it.

So I will give you

chopped turnip,

and tofu.

I noticed that you always eat that.

Sir, please try it.

Sir,

you have helped me so much,

I toast you this cup.

Wait.

You are a girl,

so don't drink wine.

Don't drink any in the future.

Sir, are you afraid that

I may do crazy stuff after drinking?

Don't you worry.

I have never been drunk since I was born.

Have never been drunk?

So what's happened with you and Xie Xiao last time?

That time, I was in a bad mood.

It was an accident.

Don't drink outside ever again.

OK. I'll listen to you.

Sir, please have some vegetables.

You should eat more, too.

Thank you, sir. Thank you.

This dish is Dayang's best dish.

Eat a little bit more.

You eat firstly. Then I will eat later.

This one, too.

Sir, you had a tiring day.

Let me massage your shoulder.

No need. No need.

Then I will massage your head.

Relax your mind.

No need. My mind is relaxed now.

Or

I can boil water for you to soak your feet.

No. It's OK.

Sir.

No need.

So...

Sir.

No need.

Everything is fine.

I don't need anything.

Sir, I'll help you brew tea.

No need. No need.

You can drink it to relieve headache.

No need. I said I don't need anything.

Sir.

No need.

What about dessert?

I don't need it, either.

I don't need anything.

There's no possibility that I need something.

Sir.

No need. I really don't need anything.

Father.

Master.

You don't need the crutches anymore.

Your leg is fully healed.

It seems that Doctor Shen's medical skills are amazing.

Master, why are you looking for me?

I heard that

you had invited Sir Lu for a meal.

That's right.

About that,

I have something to tell you.

What is it?

It's about my family,

my biological parents.

How's it going?

Did you find some clues?

I didn't.

But I asked Sir Lu for help,

he didn't refuse directly.

I think the spies of the Embroidered Uniform Guard

are everywhere.

If he really helps me,

I may find my family.

Master, what's wrong?

Kneel.

Father, if Sir Lu helps,

isn't it a good thing?

You kneel, too.

Both of you,

before, there's only one stupid brat,

now there are two.

I had wasted my time teaching you.

Who is Sir Lu?

He is an Embroidered Uniform Guard.

I have told you time and time again,

with the Embroidered Uniform Guard,

you must be cautious.

Do not get too close.

Or else when they sell you out,

you won't even know.

Who is Lu Yi?

And who are you?

You are just a lowly constable

of Imperial Police Department.

He gives you orders,

be polite to you,

it's because of his standing.

Frankly, even though it sounds harsh, in his eyes,

you're no different from a dog.

And you,

give you a ladder, you will climb up

shamelessly.

Father, saying that...

Shut up.

Both of you listen to me,

from now on, think carefully about who you are before you talk.

If I find out that you do something like this again,

I will break your legs.

Understand?

Master, why are you mad at me like that?

I don't think I was wrong.

I don't feel

that I'm as lowly as you said either.

Because I'm afraid that you will be harmed.

The Embroidered Uniform Guards are not normal people.

Master,

in your eyes,

am I a shameless person?

It's me

who is too harsh.

Stand up. Stand up.

But recently,

you and Sir Lu are too closed.

A person like him,

you should stay away from.

How do you think?

I just think that

he is not a bad person.

A person like him

has many enemies.

Just listen to me,

you must

respect and stay away from Sir Lu.

Especially Xiaer,

you must remember what I said.

I understand.

I understand, father.

About your biological parents,

I have my way.

You may go.

Let's go.

Comply with the Mandate of Heaven, the Emperor says his order,

the fund of one hundred thousand to repair the dyke has been recovered.

In this case, the Embroidered Uniform Guards have great merits.

Lu Yi is promoted to Inspector Rank four.

Written by the Emperor.

I thank you for the Emperor's favor.

Long live the Emperor.

Congratulation, Inspector Lu.

Sir,

the case of the missing money is closed,

isn't it time for us to return?

No need to hurry. Head constable Yang's leg has just got better.

Yangzhou natural scenery is also

at its best time.

As we are already here,

we should stay for a few days.

I have followed you for many years,

but this is the first time I see you show your interest like that.

Why don't I hear

the voice of constable Yuan this morning?

I saw she went to Gang Wuan with constable Yang.

This is...

Is there anyone?

What happened with your gang?

Why are you closed?

Who are you?

I am Yang Yue.

Please tell your Young Master.

You're looking for the Young Master?

That's right.

You haven't known yet,

but last night, Dong Family Water Bay had taken Yangzhou port by force.

My brothers couldn't stand it so they fought against them.

This morning, the Master and Young Master,

and the priors went there.

Dong Family Water Bay went too far.

Let's go there.

Yangzhou port was under Gang Wuan's control.

Last night Dong Family Water Bay

had taken this port by force.

Because of this, our products

cannot disembark.

Are you

betraying Gang Wuan?

Master Xie is too harsh.

This Yangzhou port

doesn't belong to Gang Wuan.

Dong Qisheng me

saw your richness,

so I just want to share it with you.

Share?

What do you mean?

Become ally through marriage.

If Gang Wuan and Dong Family Water Bay

become ally,

then we will be even more powerful.

The majority of grain transportation in Yangzhou

will be under our control.

If you agree,

we can enlarge our territory.

Gather all the

big and small gangs around Yangzhou

into ours.

In a few days, all the water routes will be ours.

How dare you!

If your grandfather was still alive,

hearing what you said,

he would be heartbroken.

Your grandfather and I had a good relationship.

He was kind to everyone,

understood the moral of the underworld and the greater good of the nation.

He never did anything against his conscience.

Why don't you have

anything resembling him?

The moral of the underworld, the greater good of the nation.

How laughable!

I didn't expect that

you are such an old-fashioned man.

In the last few years, whoever gives you milk is your mother.

Operating grain transportation,

as long as there's no conflict with the local authority,

there is nothing you can't do.

Tell me, am I right, beauty?

You rotten bastard,

how can you compare with our Gang Wuan?

Go around and listen,

is there anyone

praising you bastards?

I'm the bastard?

I wonder who is the person, on the wedding day,

having left his bride without a care

and sneaked away?

Such a poor bride.

Wait.

Say that again.

Xie Xiao, don't get angry.

What? You can't argue so you switch to using your fist?

Come on, come on.

Sir Wei has arrived.

Are you all blind?

You dare to fight when I'm here.

Has the law become useless?

Sir Wei,

Xie Xiao me is a reasonable man.

Please tell me, how should we deal with this?

I am also a servant of the court.

Sir Wei, please tell me.

He is the one who started the fight.

If you hadn't offended us,

I wouldn't even care to beat you.

You see.

Both of you are renowned.

In front of so many people,

arguing with each other,

don't you feel no shame?

If you continue like that,

how can this port deliver products?

I want you, no matter how,

to resolve this problem today.

Fine.

If Sir Wei has said so,

then how about this?

All of us here are people of the underworld,

so let's compete.

The winner

will take charge of the Yangzhou port.

What Master Dong is saying is...

A competition of capturing the flag to determine the winner.

What does Master Xie think?

Then I'd like to ask Sir Wei to be the judge.

Alright.

I accept.

Father,

why do you agree with them?

The authority over Yangzhou port

belongs to Gang Wuan.

If they dare to cause us troubles,

then we just beat them.

Why do we need to compete?

I want them to be convinced by our strength.

Xie Xiao me is not scared of anything,

but I will never

compete with those bastards.

Master.

Dayang.

This competition is surely not so simple.

Dong Qisheng must have prepared beforehand.

Dong Qisheng is a thug,

especially the way he looks at sister Shangguan,

I hate that I can't rush over there...

What do you want to do that for?

To kill him.

Calm down.

Just watch that Dong Qisheng firstly.

Don't let him think up more rubbish

before the competition.

Alright.

What about you?

I'll figure out a way.

Watch him.

Xie Xiao.

Senior sister.

So you still remember that I'm your senior?

How old are you

that you're still so rebellious?

Master did that

because of his own reasons.

Don't you just think that everything he does is wrong.

Do you think that in this world,

only you're right?

Brother Xie, no matter what,

Master Xie is your father.

No matter how angry you are,

you shouldn't have fought with him

right in front of your brothers.

My father is too straightforward,

I was worried that

he would be tricked by that coward.

Moreover, the Yangzhou port is

under Gang Wuan's control.

What rights do they have to fight over it with us?

What kind of person Dong Qisheng is, everyone knows.

If he gets the authority

over the port,

it'll be terrible.

Master knows that,

he won't do nothing.

I think sister Shangguan is right.

Brother Xie, please calm down.

Besides, you've been in the underworld for three years,

you have learned much.

Master must have agreed to the competition

because he wanted to see your ability.

Thank old Master, please.

Master Dong,

what is your intention?

According to the underworld's rules,

you have to drink this no matter you win or lose.

Drinking this cup means you make a life and death vow.

Life and death do not matter in the fight, you give everything you have.

What kind of rule is that?

In a competition, punches and kicks fly blind,

combine with drinking, your life is in danger,

that would be unsightly.

Old Master Xie is wrong.

If it's a competition,

why would you be afraid of blind punches and kicks?

We're both people of the underworld.

The Master Xie

wouldn't, just because of this cup,

let the underworld laugh in your face?

I would like to drink it firstly.

Please.

Sir Lu.

Sir.

What are you doing here?

I'm thinking about

how I should tell Sir Lu later?

Sir Lu has just gone out.

How do you know...

Sir.

So you're here.

Why are you looking for me?

This...

This...

What are you smiling for?

Just say it.

Here is the thing.

Dong Family Water Bay cheated,

they took over the Yangzhou port by force.

To deal with this kind of thief,

Gang Wuan has agreed to a competition

to choose the commander of Yangzhou port.

However,

the Master of Dong Family Water Bay is cunning,

he will definitely pull out some dirty tricks in the competition.

I know that you're very skilled in martial arts,

and extremely intelligent.

With your help,

even if Dong Family Water Bay can change fate,

they won't be able to get through this.

So you are here for that?

Sir.

It seems that recently, constable Yuan doesn't have much to do.

You even worry about others' matters.

You're wrong, sir.

I don't just help them fight that easily.

You see, Dong Qisheng is a sly bastard,

did a lot of bad things,

if they win the port,

the people will be under great pressure,

and the transportation route will be disrupted.

You see, the Japanese are causing ruckus along the coast,

if he cooperates with them,

then the consequence will be disastrous.

That's why,

Sir,

you just need to nod

to protect people's safety.

There's no reason to refuse.

It seems that

constable Yuan is working hard

for the people's sake.

What else would I do?

So, Sir, please.

I won't go.

Why?

I praise constable Yuan for your noble intention,

but I don't care about this matter.

Sir.

Lu Yi, you're so cruel.

Master Xie,

you don't look well.

What happened? My stomach hurts.

What happened?

Master Dong, something is wrong with your liquor.

Master Xie, that's nonsense.

We drank from the same jar,

if there's any problem,

how can I and my subordinates not be affected?

Come on, what's wrong?

Xiaofei.

Young Master.

Come on, stand up.

Xiao Fei, what's wrong?

My stomach hurts.

Where's my father?

Where's the Master?

It looks like they are drugged with a laxative.

Jinxia, you're right.

Dong Qisheng played tricks.

What's wrong?

Sir Wei.

Sit down.

Didn't I tell you to watch him?

I didn't expect that he would use drug.

What now?

The competition is about to start.

With their condition, they can't fight.

You two, tell your competitors to come on stage.

These guys are cunning bastards.

I have to show them who we are.

Sister, let's go.

In this situation, it's the only way.

Let's go.

Let's go.

I hate those devious cowards the most.

Dayang, this we can't not interfere.

I have the same idea.

Let's go. | Let's go.

What's wrong?

Gang Wuan has no one

so you have to let a woman fight?

Against you, the four of us are enough.

Those who are arrogant will lose.

Don't act smug so soon.

Winner and loser are not decided yet.

Alright.

Today is the competition of the underworld.

I accepted the invitation of Master Xie and Master Dong

to be here as a judge.

The competition is simple.

You all see it.

Each team has one flag pole.

Which team can take their flag

and plant them on the dais first,

the port will belong to them.

In the process, you must not fatally harm the opponent.

Additionally, if someone steps outside the white lines,

they will be disqualified.

The competition starts.

Please move aside.

Move aside.

Sir, we have investigated.

In recent years, Dong Family Water Bay

has been causing trouble for everyone.

The one fighting with Jinxia

is one of the criminals the court is hunting.

Jinxia, are you alright?

How are you?

I'm fine.

Sister Shangguan, are you alright?

I'm fine.

Your hand is hurt.

I'm fine.

Protect the flag.

Xie Xiao.

Xie Xiao.

Stop.

Sir Wei.

You don't say that competitors can bring weapons.

Master Xie,

your people are great with punches and kicks,

my people are great with weapons.

Each side has their own forte, what is not fair?

I think that you're losing, so you're trying to cheat.

You're spewing lies.

Sir Wei, I think that today's competition

should stop.

Sir Wei, before the competition,

we didn't say that weapons were not allowed.

But I did say that

fatal harm was not allowed.

Guards.

Yes, sir.

Remove him.

Roger.

Go.

Continue.

Jinxia.

Sir Wei, this...

This is against the rules.

What is against the rule?

According to the rule,

each side starts with five people.

This is my fifth person.

Fine.

If there's a fifth person,

why didn't he appear at the beginning?

Before the competition, no one said anything about the starting time.

Master Dong, I have already told you,

as long as there's no fatal harm, everything goes.

Xie Xiao.

Great.

We have the result.

Gang Wuan wins.

Great, great!

The authority over Yangzhou port belongs to...

Sir Wei.

I'm not convinced.

Gang Wuan

has to ask for an outsider's help.

How can they be considered the winner?

Sir, they're here.

They are the Wu brothers, wanted criminals of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Outsider?

Excuse me for asking since when

wanted criminals can also be in Dong Family Water Bay?

This...

If you also have aid,

then it's a draw.

Does Master Dong want to disagree?

I don't dare to.

The authority over the Yangzhou port belongs to Gang Wuan.

Great!

Thank you, sir.

Great!

Master Dong,

this Yangzhou port

might not belong to Gang Wuan, | Xie Xiao.

but it's under our control.

It's only because of my respect for your grandfather

that I spare you today,

or else I'd have dealt with you a long time ago.

Xie Baili,

you are such a two-faced person.

You've agreed to a competition between us,

but then secretly asked for the Embroidered Uniform Guard's help.

You old fox

better not let yourself fall into my hand.

If you do,

I will make your life worse than death.

Let's go.

Thank you.

I'm grateful for your aid.

It's your courage that helped Gang Wuan win.

I can not be grateful enough.

Master Xie, you're exaggerating.

How is that exaggerating?

Without you,

who knows if we'd have won this competition.

Truly thank you.

It's what we should do.

Lu, your aid today, I'll remember.

You better remember it, don't you ever forget.

Sir, I thought you wouldn't come.

So you are not so cold-blooded after all.

Didn't constable Yuan also

risk your life

to protect the people's lives?

However,

I did that with the aim of catching the wanted criminals.

Don't over-think it.

Xie Yuanyuan, I heard that you woke up.

What's wrong?

Did you put on the salve?

Not yet.

Look at you right now,

you look just like when you're young,

after getting beaten.

Only a fat pig is like that.

I'm not a pig, I'm not fat.

My precious and masculine face.

Is it because I'm not handsome and cool now

so you don't like me anymore?

I...

The doctor said

my wounds need redressing every hour.

That little brat is so lazy,

he's been sneaking away for two hours.

Why didn't he come to re-applied the salve?

I will call someone for you.

No need to bother, you can do it for me.

I do it for you?

Where?

Here, here, here.

I'm injured everywhere.

So you really want me to do it?

Come here.

Strip.

Strip?

There are wounds on your body,

if you don't strip,

how can I apply the salve?

Yeah, yeah.

It hurts.

Undressing by myself is really painful.

How about you help me do it?

Come here.

Alright, I'll get your pants off first.

Why do you need to take my pants off?

Aren't your legs injured?

Come on, let me take off your pants.

Don't, don't, don't.

Why are you not embarrassed?

If I cannot endure such a trivial matter,

how can I survive on the streets?

Moreover, it's just applying the salve,

there's nothing to be embarrassed about.

Lie down.

Where?

Upper body, right?

Which one is it?

Are you sure you want me to do it?

Bear it.

You have to endure the pain if you want to heal.

Bear it, bear it.

Does it hurt?

How about I go look for the servant?

No need.

So bear it.

Stop yelling.

The more it hurts, the better it works.

Bear it.

A great deed successfully accomplished.

Do you feel like you're living a new life?

It's finally over.

If you hadn't stopped it,

I would have died right here.

Jinxia, thank you.

What are you thanking me for?

Thank you for applying the salve for me.

Jinxia,

actually, I want...

Rest and heal up.

Lie down and sleep.

Rest well, you hear me?

I'm leaving, don't move around too much, be obedient, I'm going.

I haven't finished yet, Jinxia.

Jinxia.

Yuan Jinxia, I like you.

He's crazy.

I tormented you like that,

and you still like me?

Yuan Jinxia, I like you.

Yuan Jinxia, do you hear me?

Xie Xiao me will marry you.

Sister Shangguan, what happened?

Why didn't you dodge?

You are in a bad mood.

If you want to take it out on me,

to relieve the discomfort inside you,

I can only wish for it.

Why would I want to dodge?

Is there a problem?

This is the medicine I brought back from the capital.

You can apply it on the wound on your hand,

so it won't leave a scar.

Here, for you.

Thank you.

Is there anything else?

No, there's nothing.

I was just worried...
