[Heart of Loyalty]

[Episode 3]

[Kaifeng City Office]

Sir.

The green-robed man committed murder

and planted evidence just to
get the account book.

Wu Zi Chu and Li Xu are on the same side.

There's still no clue yet

as to whom they are working for.

Quickly find the real account book,

or more blood will spill.

Bai Bao Zhen had a very suspicious nature.

He would not leave such an important thing

in the hands of others.

So the account book

is probably still in Bai's residence.

Soon, the green-robed man
will realize that the account book is fake.

Besides us,

anyone who wants the account book
will surely go to Gusu.

If so, I'll head to Gusu at once

to retrieve the real account book.

I'm willing to go there with Officer Zhan.

Well...

Officer Zhan.

Why don't you take Miss Mo with you?

It's fine. I can go on my own.

Detective Mo, you should just stay
and wait for further instructions.

Officer Zhan, with an extra pair of hands,
there'll be more strength.

Besides,

I'm just slightly beneath you
in terms of martial skills.

Perhaps, I can look out for you.

I just didn't want you to put yourself at risk.

It's way more efficient to act alone.

Besides, you haven't done patrolling yet.

You can't get involved in the investigation.

I can do the patrolling when I get back.

No.

I'll do extra patrols then.

That should do, right?

Making patrols is an official duty.
Stop fooling around.

I'll do the patrolling in Gusu.

Ridiculous!

You're the one who's being ridiculous.

All right. Stop fighting.

Both of you will go together

and you can look out for each other.

Thank you, Official Bao. I'll pack my things now.

Sir.

Official Bao, Mr. Gongsun.

What are you...?

Bai Bao Zhen's case is very complicated.

Not only Li Xu and the green-robed man
are involved,

even the Imperial Bodyguard is involved as well.

I'm really concerned about it.

So you have to be extra careful.

Officer Zhan, Official Bao has been worried
for you all night

and didn't get much sleep.

Look, he looks so pale now.

Do I?

I'll not let you down, sir.

There's Detective Mo as well.

Don't worry, sir. I'll keep an eye on her

and won't let her cause any trouble.

I'm asking you to look after her.

Yes, sir.

Where's Detective Mo?

Did she oversleep?

Says who that I'm late?

Good morning, Official Bao, Mr. Gongsun.

Good morning, Officer Zhan.

Don't worry.

I'll surely get the account book
and successfully accomplish our mission.

Let's go.

Miss Mo.

Officer Zhan, up for a match?

What match?

Let's see who's faster.

When we arrive in Gusu,

whoever gets the account book first wins.

All of a sudden, I'm feeling a little worried.

Don't worry, sir.

With the two of them in this mission,
the account book is in the bag.

Instead, I'm more worried about Officer Zhan.

Didn't we agree to go our separate ways?

Why are you following me?

There's only one way to Gusu.

[Beloved Father, Liu Hong Hao]

[Beloved Father, Ye Pei Jun]

[Beloved Father, Liu Hong Hao]

Fellow lost and forlorn spirits.

Please don't get the wrong guy.

I'm just passing by.

Don't come to me.

Are you feeling scared too?

You'll go first

and I'll protect you from behind.

Come on.

Let's go.

You go first. Come on, you go first.

Officer Zhan, what a coincidence.

That's right. There's only one way.

It's a coincidence indeed.

Officer Zhan, aren't you going to keep moving?

It's not safe to travel at night.
I'm going to make a stop here tonight.

Come on.

The men from Kaifeng City Office
are on their way to Gusu.

Should I go there as well?

No.

I have my own plans.

Guards.

[The Great Virtue of Heaven and Earth]

-Yes.
-Yes.

Relay my message to the men
from Kaifeng City Office.

Warn them to know when to call it quits.

-Yes, I understood.
-Yes, I understood.

What's going on?

Come here.

Are you calling me?

Come and warm yourself.

Okay.

Officer Zhan, did you hear the sound of cicadas?

Yes.

Have you ever heard of the stories

that cicadas are the transformation
of vengeful ghosts?

They make sounds
because they're crying out their grievances.

No.

Have you killed anyone?

Yes.

Aren't you afraid of ghosts?

Those who had fallen beneath my blade
were no innocent people.

So I'm not afraid.

Have you killed anyone?

No.

Why are you afraid then?

I'm afraid that these vengeful ghosts
will get the wrong guy.

Awesome, Officer Zhan.

Teach me. How did you do it?

Focus on the target when tossing it.

Keep your eyes looking straight.

Try again.

I missed it again.

Try again.

Wait.

Relax your arms and wrists.

Bring your hand to your shoulder
as much as you can.

Swing the forearm to drive the wrist to toss it.

Give it a try.

Try again.

I give up.

It's too difficult.

Is there any simpler trick

that I can use to escape

should I get into trouble?

No.

We're going to Gusu to investigate a case.

If you teach me some skills,

I can use them to protect myself.

That way, I won't be a drag on you.

Okay, I'll teach you.

♪Looking at the wilderness from afar♪

♪It's a really long journey♪

♪Asking for clues♪

♪With a few lines of ink♪

As mentioned in Sun Tzu's Art of War,

"He who cannot conquer takes the defensive."

♪Deep emotions light up my heart♪

♪As the dream gets older,
it sinks as the sun sets♪

It means that if you stand no chance
against the enemy,

or he's impossible to defeat,

takes the defensive.

♪We shall meet again in this lifetime♪

♪Let our souls run into each other♪

If you stand a chance against the enemy

and you're certain to defeat him,

attack and take him by surprise.

Attacking indicates a
superabundance of strength.

♪Hoping that as the flowers fall♪

♪The two of us can meet again♪

That's all for today.

Why are there only two pieces
of Chongyang cake left?

I remember bringing a bag of them.
I must have dropped them.

Officer Zhan, you can have one.

I have only two pieces.

But it's really good. Try it.

Thank you.

Chongyang cake is delicious.

But it's not enough to keep us full.

If you give me yours, what about you?

I still have some.

Thank you, Officer Zhan.

This grilled bun tastes just like the one
that my fifth brother makes.

So you have six brothers?

Actually, I have five brothers and a third sister.

What are they like?

They?

They're renowned warriors
of the martial arts world

who have great martial skills
and rid the world of evil.

Are you only interested to know

how are they like in person?

They are good people,

just like Official Bao and Wei Wei.

I grew up on the mountain.

My teacher passed away too soon.

They are the ones who look after me

and they are really nice to me.

My big brother taught me medicine.

My second brother taught me martial arts.

My third sister taught me feng shui.

My fourth and fifth brothers
would take me out to have fun.

But my sixth brother left Shuzong
after a few years

and died on the battlefield.

I left the mountain without their knowledge.

But I didn't expect I would come this far.

If they catch me,

who knows how they are going to punish me?

You left Shuzhong and came to Kaifeng
all by yourself.

Don't you feel scared?

I do.

But I don't want to stay on the mountain,

remain under their protection,

and be their burden.

I, too, want to travel the world

to make a name for myself

and become the renowned
Seventh Evil of Shuzhong.

Oh, right, Officer Zhan.

I've told you so much about myself.

Tell me something about yourself.

Aren't you the Southern Hero?

Why would you work in Kaifeng City Office?

Sir.

Can I take up arms for justice just like you do?

To make up for a mistake.

What mistake?

Eat up and rest earlier.

There's still a long way tomorrow.

I've told you so much.

Are you trying to brush me off just like that?

You bad guys!

Zhan Zhao, the Southern Hero is here!
Don't you dare mess with me!

Zhan Zhao, the Southern Hero is here!
Don't you dare mess with me!

It's dangerous! Come back here!

Wang Xiao Liu.

Wang Xiao Liu!

Wang Xiao Liu!

Is one enough?

If not,

I can give you more.

You left on your own?

Not scared anymore?

If I weren't famished,

do you think I would leave on my own
to find food to eat?

You're so petty.

You were sleeping with your bag underneath you.

I couldn't get my hands on your buns
even if I wanted to.

Right, we'll go our separate ways later.

There's a tea house in front.

If you're hungry, I'll treat you to a bowl of noodles.

Noodles?

[Tea House]

Miss, check out the pastries.

Sir, two bowls of noodles, please.

All right.

How much is this?

Three wen.
(*a currency unit)

This?

Two wen.

How many do you need? I'll pack it up for you.

It's okay. I'm not hungry.

Come again.

Such heavy rain.

Get changed, or you might catch a cold.

There's no door here.

How should I get changed?

Besides, I have only food in my bag.

I was planning to buy some clothes in Gusu.

I'll keep watch for you.

I'm done. You may come in now.

Your clothes are all wet.

Go and get changed. I'll wait for you outside.

It's fine. There's no shelter out there.

(His clothes must be soaking wet.)

There's food in my bag.

Let's dry the clothes after eating.

Red bean cake and lardy cake?

When did you buy these?

Miss, check out the pastries.

How much is this?

You usually seem as stiff as a board.

I didn't expect you to be so attentive.

Thank you!

Come on.

Report to His Highness

that we have found our targets.

Yes.

-Let's go.
-Let's go.

Sir and ma'am, watch the steps.

Slowly.

This way, please.

You two are in luck.

We have a total of seven detached guest rooms.

These two rooms,

Tianzi Room 1 and Tianzi Room 2,
(*means "the greatest")

are the best rooms.

Well, you two can decide which room to take.

Eenie, meenie, miney, moe. Catch a tiger by the toe.

Eenie, meenie, miney, moe. Catch a tiger by the toe.

You two have been following me.

Anything?

Zhan Zhao, we're here under the order
of Prince Ning Jin

to warn you to take your men and leave Gusu at once.

Or you'll have to suffer consequences.

What if I refuse?

This is a complicated matter.

If you insist to dig your heels in,

don't blame us if we show you no mercy.

When Official Bao ordered me to go to Jiangnan,

he did tell me what was at stakes

and reminded me to be careful.

Since this involves Prince Ning,

it concerns the reputation
of the imperial family.

No matter how powerful Kaifeng City Office is,

it is under the jurisdiction
of the imperial court.

We have to make minor sacrifices
to safeguard major interests. That I understand.

I hope you can walk the talk, Officer Zhan.

Stop interfering in Li Xu's case.

We're only following orders.

Let's just stay out of each other's way.

Farewell.

You corrupt officers!

What's the meaning of this?

Make minor sacrifices
to safeguard major interests?

Whose minor sacrifices?
And whose major interests?

Detective Mo.

Zhan Zhao, watch your subordinate.

Should you disobey,

we'll take no prisoners.

You dare?

Let go of me!

Can't you tell that it's a stalling tactic?

I deliberately said those things to them.

I heard you loud and clear.

You said, "Make minor sacrifices
to safeguard major interests."

You're trying to sacrifice my brother

to protect Ning Jin, that scum,

right?

No.

Ning Jin is someone with
power and high authority.

You're just covering each other's butt.

You officials are all the same.

On the surface, you act like an upright person
who enforces the law.

But the truth is, you're all the same.

Even if you don't trust me,

do you not trust Official Bao?

He's also an official.

He knows that my brother is innocent.

Why won't he let him go?

He's trying to protect Ning Jin.

From the looks of it,

Ning Jin and Official Bao are in it together.

Shut up!

How could you insult Official Bao?

What about it?

I'll say what I want!

Not only Official Bao.

The same goes for His Majesty.

If he commits a crime,

can you stop others from talking about it?

I won't let you get your hands on the account book.

[Bai Residence]

[Bai Ying Yu]

(It's so well played.)

It's so noisy!

Stop playing it!

You're playing zither all the time!

What's so nice about it?

Second Madam.

The Sima family has agreed.

If you're willing to marry Mr. Sima,

they'll treat you well.

Why are you still resisting it?

Back then,

my father had rejected this marriage.

There's no need for further discussion.

Now that my father is gone,

they try to take advantage of the fact
that we have no one to rely on

and make this marriage happen by force.

I'm not going to marry him.

The Sima family is a prominent family
of Jiangnan.

Mr. Sima is just a little old.

You're not that spoiled young lady anymore.

Your father used to spoil you.

But things are different now.

Sooner or later, you'll have to come to terms
and accept the reality.

Filial piety is the most important
of all virtues.

I've decided to mourn for my father.

You...

Second Madam, you may leave.

You...

How dare you disobey me?

Watch how I'm going to teach you a lesson!

Miss.

Miss Bai is such a loser.

Govern your thoughts when alone,
and your tongue when in company with others.

Why are you here?

Miss Mo.

I would like to talk to you
about this morning's incident.

You've misunderstood things.

We have nothing to talk about.

(You corrupt official, I won't let you
get your hands on the account book.)

(I'm going to get it myself.)

(Miss Mo, get a good rest tonight.)

(Tomorrow, we'll go to the Bai's residence together.)

What a beautiful moon view.

I can sleep better now
after some light exercises.

I'm feeling sleepy already.

This Darn Cat has good hearing.

He's still awake despite the late hour.

(I'll make sure you have a good night's sleep.)

(Officer Zhan.)

(Officer Zhan, are you asleep?)

(Officer Zhan.)

(Open the door, please.)

(Officer Zhan, open the door, please.)

Watch out.

Don't spill it.

What's the matter?

Officer Zhan, I've thought about it.

Indeed, I've misunderstood you.

I brought you some wine

as a token of apology.

Detective Mo, you don't have to.

No way.

I grew up on the mountain.

I don't know much about the official etiquette

and I've caused you so much trouble.

I brought you the wine

as a token of apology.

Here, please.

Come on.

All right.

If that's the case,

I'll drink it.

I hope we can put the past behind us

and work together to solve this case.

Please.

Here. Bottoms up.

What a beautiful moon view.

I think we're missing some dishes
to go along with the wine.

Officer Zhan.

If I'm not wrong, you brought some buns, didn't you?

Give me one. I'm starving.

Sure.

Detective Mo, is this all right?

Of course.

Here.

Drink up.

So much for Zhan Zhao, the Imperial Cat.

[Bai Residence]

[Account Book]

[Account Book]

Why are you here?

Do you think those drugs

will have any effect on me?

This isn't the way we officials do things.

This is trespassing.

You're here too, aren't you?

You're trespassing as well.

I'm here to arrest you.

The account book isn't safe with you.

Give it to me.

The account book isn't safe with you either.

Those tricks that you taught me

are useless.

Give me the account book.

Give me the account book.

I'll take care of the account book. Period.

Who is it? Show yourself.

Officer Zhan?

So you're sticking your nose in this.

If so, forgive me for this.

Stop right there!

Catch the thief!

Why did you stop me just now?

If you hadn't refused
to hand over the account book,

it wouldn't have fallen into their hands.

We're uncertain of the situation.

A few groups of Imperial Bodyguard
came here for the account book.

We'd be in danger if we went after them.

Have you thought about these?

I think you were just putting on a show for me.

Give me the account book now.

Follow me closely.

Zhan, we meet again.

What brings you here at this late hour, Zi Chu?

His Highness learned that you're here in Gusu.

So he invited you over for a drink.

His Highness?

Forgive me for asking.

May I know the reason His Highness asked to see me?

You'll know when you get there.

Ning Jin again? I'm coming with you.

Please lead the way then.

His Highness, they're here.

Greetings, Your Highness.

[Ning Jin]

Zhan Zhao, the Imperial Cat,
you really do live up to your reputation.

As expected from His Majesty's
one and only Imperial Sworded Bodyguard.

You're flattering me, Your Highness.

His Majesty thought highly of me.

I heard you always act alone.

Why would you bring a little girl
with you this time?

I'm no little girl. I'm a detective.

May I know the reason Your Highness asked me here?

Just a small matter.

Leave behind the account book and you may leave.

Impossible!

I don't care if you're a prince.

If you want the account book,
you'll have to do so over my dead body!

You little girl.

You've hit the nail on the head.

Zi Chu.

Forgive her, Your Highness.

Detective Mo is an outspoken person.

Please don't take it to heart.

I'm acting under Official Bao's orders.

Be it Detective Mo or the account book,

both have to return to Kaifeng
City Office safely.

Forgive me. I can't do as requested.

It's not like I take orders from Black Bao.

If Your Highness insists to get the account book,

I might have to offend Your Highness.

Zhan Zhao.

You already did!

I know

that you're highly skilled in martial arts.

If anything happens to me,

you'll not be able to answer your superior.

How about this? I'll do you a favor.

Now that you and I each
have half of the account book,

why don't we place our bet on the Go game?

The stake is the account book.

Hand over the account book to the winner.

How about that?

This isn't a game. I can't do as requested.

That's a real slap in the face.

Believe it or not.

One word from me,

I can execute everyone from Kaifeng City Office!

Fine, let's gamble.

How do you want to go about it?

I'll play Go with the two of you at the same time.

Doing two things at once?

A sharp-tongued girl.

If you two can beat me,

I'll give you the account book.

If any one of you loses,

you'll have to hand over the account book

and return to where you came from.

Zi Chu, prepare the boards.

Yes.

Your Highness.

My legs are numb for sitting too long.

Slowly.

Don't touch my legs.

Don't touch it!

Help me up.

Your Highness.

Slow down.

[The Great Virtue of Heaven and Earth]

I won't take advantage of a woman.

Black goes first. You can pick the black pieces.

Given your Go skills,
there's no need for me to go easy on you.

I'll choose black then.

Right, I was too engrossed in the game

that I forgot to serve my guests.

Zi Chu, go to the kitchen

and see if the white fungus and
lotus seeds soup is ready.

Remember. Make sure it's well cooked.

Make sure it isn't like the other time.
It left my teeth feeling uncomfortable for days.

Yes, Your Highness.
