Under The Power

Episode 13

This lean horse could come back to life.

I'm much interested.

I will take her away.

As for the money,

you found it before me,

but as it belongs to the Ministry of Works,

it should be returned to its owner.

So I will also take it.

What do you think of the arrangements?

Reasonable.

Your Excellency?

Moreover,

this girl, I really like her,

and I want to keep her as my guard.

But

Mr. Lu, since you're so agreeable today,

I won't take away such a lovely person from you.

Little girl,

you have wounds.

Fortunately,

I happen to have superior medicine on my painted pleasure boat.

Follow me there to get treated.

It also gives me time to talk to Mr. Lu.

OK.

Yan Feng,

take her away.

Yes.

Mr. Lu, come with me.

Greeting, Mr. Yan.

With the makeup,

this girl is really pretty.

Little girl,

if you want to look into my eyes,

you may as well take a look closer.

I wouldn't dare.

Mr. Yan,

she's merely a constable of Department Six.

She behaves rudely and doesn't experience much in life.

If you find her annoying,

how about just letting her get off the boat?

Why should we do that?

She is lovely. I really like her.

Oh, little girl,

I heard that

you were very good at investigation.

Come closer.

What's your order, Mr. Yan?

Take a look

at my outfit today.

What can you tell?

You can even look at my shoes.

Mr. Yan,

you can see that her legs are trembling

as she just stands here.

I wonder how afraid she is.

I don't think she can tell anything.

How,

how can I treat Mr. Yan

like a suspect?

What about her?

Tell something about her, no more excuses.

Go to her side.

Let her take a close look at you.

So, have you found anything?

Your Excellency,

this woman is good at making tea,

but she rarely does embroidering and tailoring.

She might have made some mistakes recently,

and got punished.

She either knocked over a stove

or broke a valuable tea cup.

And, in her room,

the window may be to the right side of the makeup table.

Or, her right hand has been injured.

Tell me

how you found that out.

With different work, the hand shapes are also different.

The calluses on the palm and on the fingers

are also different.

This is the same as martial artists

having those thick calluses on their hands.

If she is good at sewing,

the pulp of her index finger and thumb

would have hard calluses.

She has no calluses on her index finger or thumb,

so I don't think she does the sewing often.

Then why the tea making?

Just now I saw that

her sleeve was a bit wet

and her hand back slightly red as if it had been scalded.

Of course it could just be that

she was scalded working in the kitchen,

so I carefully smelled her hand.

It had slight tea aroma

but no food smell from the kitchen.

So tell me about the last thing.

How did you know

the window is on the right side of the makeup table?

Her right side hair is tidier,

compared with the left side.

In this season, it often happens if one puts on makeup

using daylight outside the window.

So they use the daylight to put on makeup.

I didn't notice this.

Mr. Lu,

this time during the investigation with Department Six,

I guess it must be very interesting

having such a little girl by your side.

Mr. Yan,

it's alright.

Sometimes

it can be annoying.

Women are nuisances.

If not, then, can they still be women?

Little girl,

sit down.

Thanks, Your Excellency.

I'm not used to Yangzhou wine.

This time,

I brought some jars of capital wine.

The wine Mr. Lu usually drinks

is Qiulubai, right?

Mr. Yan, you have an outstanding memory.

Little girl,

and you?

Oh!

Yang Chengwan is a strict man.

He wouldn't let you

drink wine outside.

I,

I'm not very good at drinking.

Please forgive me.

Young girls like her

always say they are not good at drinking,

but it would take as much as two jars of wine

to make them drunk.

Mr. Yan, you truly understand women.

Go.

Bring us Qiulubai.

He's handsome, but he squanders too much.

Little girl,

why did you lie earlier?

What I said is true.

Just now You said

her left side hair

was not as tidy as the right side,

because the makeup table was on the right of the window.

But there is another reason

that you didn't say.

It's because her right hand was injured.

Though you are merely a girl,

as a constable of Department Six,

you should know

this kind of bedroom pleasure.

Um...

Please forgive me for my shallow knowledge.

It's okay.

You're still just a little girl.

Actually, not so little anymore.

You're ready to try it.

Your Excellency,

I still have work to do. Please excuse me.

I hope you understand.

Someone!

Take this little girl to a guest room.

Your Excellency, I...

Shut up.

You are just a constable of Department Six.

Can you be busier than me, the Vice Minister of Works?

Don't even mention duty in front of me.

Tonight, you two will stay on my boat,

and you can leave tomorrow morning if you want.

For now, don't ruin my mood.

Mr. Yan is trying to be a good host.

Don't be disrespectful.

Thank you, Your Excellency. See you later.

She is still just a little girl indeed.

But, she still managed to stay long,

longer than I expected.

I respect my father,

so I have a little patience for her.

Mr. Yan, as you know,

her master, Yang Chengwan, was an excellent assistant to my father

before he was wounded.

Because of appreciating the old relationship,

my father even

ordered to help treat him.

A girl like her

who is still immature and lack of sense of romance

is not my type.

Look at this place.

Who is not better than she is?

Mr. Lu,

look,

you can pick one.

No need to be shy.

I promise,

tonight you'll be accompanied by your favorite girl.

No need, thanks, Mr. Yan.

These women here are all yours.

Furthermore,

my father is very strict.

I'm afraid he may get unhappy.

That stubborn Lu Ting!

Such a pity for these girls!

They don't have the luck to serve Mr. Lu.

But

I guarantee that

tonight you will be accompanied by your favorite girl.

Mr. Lu, please enjoy your rest.

The room has been set

according to my master's order.

If Your Excellency needs anything,

just ring the bell.

Hurry up.

Why is it you?

I could hardly breathe. That was so barbaric.

They forced me to shower, tricking me into taking the muscle softening poison,

wrapped me up with a quilt, and threw me here.

That was suffocating me.

It seems

you are the gift that Mr. Yan gave me tonight.

He also said

he would let me be accompanied by my favorite one.

Your Excellency,

you are drunk?

Your Excellency, what are you doing?

Y-Y-Your Excellency...

Don't take that off. What are you doing?

Mr. Yan!

Your Excellency! Mr. Yan!

Are you drunk?

Stop taking off clothes.

Stop it. Stay back!

Your Excellency, Mr. Lu, please don't do this.

Why? You are drunk?

Mr. Lu, please...

Mr. Lu! Help!

Please don't, Mr. Lu!

No! Mr. Lu!

Lu Yi, you hypocrite, womanizer!

When, when I recover, I will beat you to death.

Let go of me, you womanizer!

Would you like to see this?

Lu Yi!

You hypocrite! Help!

Lu Yi, don't!

Help! Help! Lu Yi!

Don't stop. Keep going.

They're watching.

Mr. Lu!

Help!

You bastard, animal, let me go!

Men...

-They show their true selves after a few drinks.
-Lu Yi!

-I can't watch this anymore.
-Let go of me!

Don't touch me!

You can stop! They left.

Oh, well,

if you want to put on a play next time,

can you please tell me first?

You almost freaked me out.

Womanizer, hypocrite,

bastard, animal,

you just let out everything in your heart.

But you really acted

like a pervert.

This is Yan Shifan's territory.

Of course we can't get away from his eyes and ears.

If you really want to escape,

then it will arouse his suspicion all the more.

But you still shouldn't have pretended to sleep with me.

This bastard Yan Shifan...

Your Excellency, did he bully you?

Why do I see that

you are not yourself in front of him?

You're very frustrated.

Earlier, at the auction in the capital,

I saw him bully you.

This konghou belongs to Mr. Yan.

Congratulations, Mr. Yan. Congratulations, Mr. Yan.

Then I won't give it to you.

Later, if you want to listen to its music,

I will always welcome you to my home.

At that point I thought you were someone who'd spend money wastefully,

spending 500 tael of gold on that konghou made of residual materials.

Later, I understood that

the konghou, along with the "Peach Blossom,"

must mean

something very special to you.

Tell me.

Why can you play the "Peach Blossom"?

Your Excellency,

is it that important?

How can he bully me?

[Fake weakness]

I don't understand.

There are lots of things that you don't need to understand.

There are things that I have to accept,

so

I can only cause this inconvenience to you.

Are you hungry?

Do you need someone to bring you some food?

No need.

They will mix things into the food.

You have even taken the muscle softening poison, so what's there to be afraid of?

Tell me.

What do you want to eat?

Anything.

I want some noodles,

noodles with beef.

They really have everything in their kitchen.

Open your mouth.

Your Excellency, no.

How can a noble person like you do this?

Just leave it there.

I will eat it when I feel better.

Open your mouth.

This is an order.

How is it?

It's good.

Come on.

After I grew up,

even my mother had never fed me.

Thank you, Your Excellency.

Now, have some beef.

Thank you, Your Excellency.

On this boat,

in that person's territory,

it isn't

all that disgusting.

Put them down.

Yes.

Xiao?

This is...

Mr. Yang.

Mr. Yang,

you are Jinxia's master.

Since Jinxia's relatives are not here,

you are her elder.

I'm here today because I would like to marry Jinxia.

I hope you will allow this.

No need for the formality, Xiao.

Actually,

I can't decide this.

Even Jinxia's mother can't manage her.

So my father can't do anything.

Then,

I only need Jinxia's own acceptance, right?

Xiao, you want to propose to Jinxia,

but I heard that

you and Xi have already been engaged.

Mr. Yang, my father forced me to do so.

Xi is here with me today

to prove that

what happened in the past was a mistake.

Isn't that right, Xi?

Xi.

Fatty? What are you doing?

Mr. Lu.

I came to propose.

Propose to whom?

You.

Me?

A pretty and modest maiden, a gentleman's good mate.

My heart belongs to you,

so I want you to be my wife.

Fatty, I don't have the time

to play with you.

Go home.

W-Wait.

J-J-Jinxia!

If you don't believe what I said,

you can take my heart out to check,

to see how true it is.

This is the list of betrothal gifts.

As long as you say yes,

I can bring your mother over

and immediately carry out the wedding.

So much money?

This is just a part.

And, you don't have to prepare the dowry.

As long as you say yes,

you can manage all the money in the house.

Constable Yuan bears important responsibilities.

She can't just go and marry someone.

Mr. Lu, you really think you have a lot of power!

What's your relationship with her?

If Jinxia misses this marriage,

can you take the consequences?

Fatty!

How can you know I can't?

Jinxia,

I will take you to meet my father now.

She can't go with you.

Why? She's not yours.

At least,

she is not yours, either.

Will you take my bet that I will marry her tomorrow?

Xie Xiao!

Marriage

can be considered as a good thing.

Right, master?

Take these back first.

I need to think it over.

We'll discuss this another day.

Your Excellency...

Jinxia, I am already here.

Another day!

-Jinxia.
-Go home!

I already brought all these betrothal gifts.

Let me think about it.

Consider it then, please!

Xi, watch over Fatty.

Don't let him do crazy things again.

Jinxia, I will wait for you at home.

Think about it, Jinxia.

I will wait for you.

Master…

Hey…

Jinxia!

Jinxia, open the door!

Jinxia, open the door!

Listen to me!

Jinxia,

open the door! Open the door!

Open up, Jinxia!

Please!

Your Excellency, about what happened today,

I apologize on behalf of Xie Xiao.

He's just a boor.

Please forgive him

and don't take him seriously.

You see. It starts raining as soon as you are angry.

You haven't got married,

and you are already defending him?

Please, don't laugh at me.

Do you know what happened between Xie Xiao and Shangguan Xi?

I do.

But it doesn't make sense.

It's such a big deal to run away from a wedding.

To a woman,

it is so embarrassing.

But from what I saw,

Shangguan Xi doesn't hate Xie Xiao at all.

That is because

Xie Xiao saved her once.

That year, the two of them

ran into a group of bandits in Gusu.

That time the Wu'an Sect had no branch,

so they didn't have much help.

Xie Xiao could have run away, but he stayed

and faced those bandits all by himself,

fighting a way out for Shangguan Xi.

As a result, he was seriously injured

and almost lost his life.

He lied in his sickbed for half a year before he recovered.

I see.

That's why Shangguan Xi is so nice towards Xie Xiao

and helps him in everything.

But it's okay.

You still have a chance.

Alright.

If Jinxia misses this marriage,

can you take the consequences?

How can you know I can't?

Jinxia sent you to negotiate the marriage?

Wait.

All of you, leave.

I'm not in any conflicts with you.

Why are you messing with me?

You already have Miss shuangguan.

You already have Miss shuangguan.

Jinxia is like my sister.

I definitely will not let her

marry a playboy like you.

I'm a playboy?

Three years ago,

you ran away from your wedding,

abandoning Miss shuangguan.

That's called betrayal.

Now,

you want to marry Jinxia?

What are these two women to you?

You don't understand Xi at all.

Back then, she didn't agree to the marriage, either.

But we were forced by the elders!

She is my senior fellow apprentice

and also the Chief of Vermilion Bird Hall.

I respect and appreciate her.

And it will always be like that for the rest of my life.

But Jinxia is the one I want to marry.

Shut up!

You ran away from the wedding

but blamed it all on Miss shuangguan.

How can there be someone so shameless like you?

How dare you want to marry Jinxia?

I will be the first one to disagree with this marriage!

You don't know what happened back then,

so why do I have to answer to you?

If you dare stop Jinxia from marrying me,

I will make you suffer.

Stop.

Are you into Jinxia as well?

That's why you want to sabotage my plan.

Nonsense!

If you want to compete,

you should know if you're capable.

I...

You are an official.

Your father is an old friend of my master's.

If he knows that

you guys are fighting over a woman like this,

I wonder what he will think.

It's okay, Xi.

We are just fighting for fun.

There is nothing serious.

Don't do this again.

I hope for it.

Go inside.

Isn't this my favorite dish?

Yue?

You

cooked the soup with bamboo shoots and mushroom?

Y-You made these?

Yes.

Does it smell good? Does it smell good?

Yes.

Oh yes.

Later,

I'll cook the radish with lard oil.

Do I have to boil the radish first?

If you do it like that,

it wouldn't taste good.

You came just at the right time, Yue.

Yue...

Alright, I get it.

Take some rest.

OK.

Oh, I already kneaded the dough.

It's for making spring pancakes.

OK.

My buddy!

Jinxia, you made so many dishes.

What for?

I want to make a vegetarian meal

for Mr. Lu.

For Mr. Lu?

Oh yes, I almost forgot.

I brought along a letter for you.

For me?

It's inside my father's letter.

Maybe it's from your mother.

Err…

This is...

How much dowry has my mom promised to give actually?

Why did the Yi family agree so quickly?

It appears that Mr. Yi

has feelings for you.

Maybe

he remembers

you helped him beat the bullies in your childhood.

I have forgotten that little thing.

He doesn't have to repay me with himself like that.

Repay with what?

Hi, Your Excellency.

Mr. Lu.

Then I'm going to cook. You two keep talking.

OK.

Your Excellency, you came back just in time.

I have just made you a meal.

Please be seated.

Just these?

Yes.

Today I specially made you this whole table of vegetarian dishes.

Your Excellency, please don't think that

I am trying to save money.

I've already checked the almanac.

Today is the vegetarian day.

It also brings you 100,000 merits.

What?

You think I've done too much evil?

So you want me to gain merits?

No, no.

Your Excellency, how can you say that?

Your Excellency, please sit down.

My idea is that

you have helped me a lot,

so I should make a meal

for you.

I heard lots of men want to marry you.

Should I congratulate you?

Your Excellency, you heard it?

Don't make fun of me, please!

Dad,

why don't you let me bring Jinxia to meet you?

I really want to marry her.

Nonsense!

Three years ago, you ran away from the wedding.

Now you want to marry Jinxia.

The Wu'an Sect is a big waterway shipping organization.

You are the next master of it.

How can you do such nonsensical things?

Master.

Father,

are you okay?

I'm fine.

Oh yes,

the Dongs' Sect on the Water

has been very active recently in Yangzhou.

I think that Dong Qisheng

is having some malicious thoughts.

Xiao, you have to help Xi more.

She is extremely busy.

Send more people on patrol at the wharf.

You must keep a close eye on our ships and goods

in case Dong Qisheng uses some dirty tricks.

Yes.

Master,

should we invite Dr. Shen?

There's no need.

Don't tell the sect about my sickness.

Xie Xiao is a reckless boy.

He has never left leeway for himself.

I'm old now.

The sect work in the future

will have to be handled by him.

But with his current mental state,

I really can't trust him.

Master, don't be so worried.

Xie Xiao is just too childish.

Just give him more work

to train him.

Master,

Just let me call for Dr. Shen.

Xi, go and check the wharf.

Xie Xiao just picked up the sect business.

He is still new to everything.

Help him more.

Go.

Here comes the food.

Put it away. Put it away.

OK, um...

Spring pancakes. Spring pancakes.

I remember you said the other day

this was a good thing to you.

Marriage can be considered as a good thing.

I need to think it over.

We'll discuss this another day.

I just said that on a whim.

My home is in the capital, so if I want to marry such a faraway family,

my mother won't agree either.

Furthermore, there is still Xi.

Xie Xiao and Shangguan Xi

had engagement.

And Xi has deep feelings for him.

If I interfere,

it won't be okay.

If I really marry him,

since Xi and I will always see each other

and her fighting skill is exceptionally good,

if she takes things too hard and swings her swords,

then it'll be just like killing myself.

You do have a long term vision.

I have no choice.

Anyway, I will not accept this.

My mother will not, either.

Tomorrow I will dissuade him.

Your Excellency,

should I bring you another bottle of wine?

You even got me wine?

When I cleaned the room for you the other day,

I found two jars

in the round-corner closet,

unopened ones.

Would you like to have a taste?

Clearly you are the host.

Why would you treat me with my wine?

U-Um...

It doesn't matter whose wine it is.

What is important is the taste

and your pleasure with the meal, right?

I will go heat the wine up.

Wait.

You can't heat up fruit wine.

Fruit wine has little color but tastes good.

You must serve it in a crystal glass.

But

where can I find one for you?

There is no crystal glass?

Then, I'll see you later.

Your Excellency, please!

Please sit down.

I will get one for you.

Your Excellency, I found it.

I finally found a crystal glass.

Your Excellency.

Your Excellency, please try this.

This is Yue's best dish.

If I eat this,

I can eat three bowls of rice.

It's wonderful.

Tasty, right?

Is the radish cooked with lard oil?

Yes.

Isn't today a vegetarian day?

Why did you use lard oil?

It's tastier with lard oil.

What about 100,000 merits then?

Your Excellency, don't worry too much.

You are not short of it.

This truly tastes good.

Can't you just make do?

Fine, I will.

Come on, join me.

Um.

Th-That is not appropriate.

Our classes are different.

How about you eating first?

I will serve you.

I will eat when you are finished.

Sit down. Eat.

Your Excellency, try this.

This is Yue's greatest dish.

I'll wrap one for you.

You put these inside?

Is it really good?

Yes.

Your Excellency, try this.

It smells weird.

Your Excellency, you don't like

the smell of seaweed?

Yes, this smell.

Your Excellency, that is because you don't know cuisines.

This seaweed

is the highlight of this pancake.

Maybe this is a custom of southerners.

So you might not be used to it.

Southerners' custom?

When my boss was a kid,

he lived in Fujian for several years.

So Yue cooks in the southern style.

They don't call it spring pancake,

but moistened pancake.

Once you get used to it,

you will find it tasty.

Head Constable Yang is clearly from Jiangxi.

Why did he live in Fujian

for such a long period when he was young?
