♫ In the stormy night ♫

♫ The dark hair of a charming woman is reflected in the flame of a candle ♫

♫ Shrouded by year after year of memories ♫

♫ I can do nothing but feign indifference ♫

♫ Outlining your cheeks ♫

♫ Together and apart, just like quicksand ♫

♫ Bound by destiny, I must make peace with myself, love can be restored or destroyed ♫

♫ Drift away in the clouds ♫

♫ I'll drive away your carefree pretense ♫

♫ A drunken dream ♫

♫ I will always know the person I cherished the most ♫

♫ Even if you're just by my side ♫

♫ I want to hold on to you but I can only play dumb ♫

Look at me. Look at me, Pan Yue.

You're all right. Look at me.

Take a deep breath.

It's okay.

You.

You made me worry just now.

You were the one by my side just now?

♫ How to not sigh at the parting sorrow as flowers fall ♫

Other than me, is there anyone else here?

♫ Painting the moonlight with a brush ♫

♫ Every stroke is your brilliance ♫

♫ Endless thoughts on the wind and moon ♫

♫ Never letting down or forgetting this glimpse of a life ♫

Thank you.

After all these years, he is still haunted by his past.

It seems that his life hasn't been smooth sailing in these few years.

Old Master Zhuo has left for many years.

What do you want to know?

My father said you were old friends with him.

He wanted me to take care of Relief Hall.

But over the years, I've always had this question in my mind.

Since you'd been old friends, why did our families rarely meet each other?

Since your father didn't tell you,

it means he didn't want you to know.

We must respect the dead.

If he didn't say anything, I have no reason to reveal it.

It's as I thought. There must be a reason for this.

Mr. Gu, can you give me some advice?

Some secrets are meant to be buried.

I see.

I have delayed him for long enough.

Yang Caiwei and Pan Yue should be finishing their jobs.

Now that I've asked all my questions, I shan't bother Mr. Gu anymore.

Let's go.

Yes.

We're running late from the agreed time. Let's get out quickly.

Someone is coming. Hide.

Go.

Come out.

Aren't you famished?

I brought all your favorite foods to you today.

Shan, apologize to your father.

You are his child, after all.

As long as you are willing to admit your mistake, trust me,

your father will definitely have mercy on you.

Darling. Darling.

Somebody, come.

- Where's the madam? - She was in the house just now.

- Find her quickly. - Yes.

Mr. Gu, there are trespassers in the dungeon.

Recently, some have been investigating the purchasing records of animal bones.

Could it be that Pan Yue knew that we were making a fake wyvern?

No wonder Zhuo Lanjiang spent so much time talking with me.

Pan Yue is still suspicious of me. Since he's here, don't let him go.

Yes.

You're early, freeloader.

It's Caiwei's treat.

She is the younger sister of the richest man in the world. It's none of your business.

I'm afraid that some people would use their friends as a shield when trouble arises.

I only use people I hate as shields.

I'm afraid you can't afford to offend those people.

- You... - Waiter.

Sir, what would you like to eat?

Grilled sea bass and stir-fried cinnamon fern. Chicken stew and field mustard tofu soup.

Less salt for the fish and char its skin. The cinnamon fern should be crispy, not soft.

And a jar of osmanthus wine. Serve the wine first, and prepare ingredients for the rest.

Start cooking as soon as my friend comes in.

Okay, please wait a moment.

These are all Caiwei's favorites.

Isn't this Zhuo Lanjiang treating Caiwei too well?

He was so sad for Caiwei that he drank a lot.

Later, he wanted to help Caiwei take her revenge.

I didn't expect this guy to be so crazy for Caiwei.

Why are you staring at me like that? Are there flowers on my face?

Who is staring at you? You're shameless.

Tell me, what are you planning?

Young Master Zhuo, let's make a deal.

I'm not interested in your fake jade bracelet.

Sure, but are you interested in Caiwei?

- What are you trying to say? - You like Caiwei, don't you?

How direct.

In business, we should clearly mark the price. I don't have time to beat around the bush.

I like her. And?

I grew up with Caiwei.

So, I know her favorites.

I also know what kind of person she likes.

Won't you consider cooperating with me? Let me help you.

Do you think I need your help?

As the saying goes, the more friends you have, the more options you have.

The fewer enemies you have, the fewer obstacles, right?

If you don't cooperate with me, I might bad-mouth you.

You are good at making a deal.

Tell me. What are your conditions?

As expected, Young Master Zhuo.

You are a smart, sincere, lovable, and handsome client.

It's such a pleasure doing business with you.

I want this.

You don't know how to use a sword. What do you want it for?

That's my business.

I hope you keep your end of the deal.

Of course.

Shan.

Madam, why are you here again? Come on, come with me quickly.

I want to stay with Shan here.

The Young Master left here five years ago. Let's go quickly. Let's go.

- Let's go. - Shan.

Shan.

It seems that Gu Shan was being held here. He's not dead.

Gu Shan ran away. There is another person in this world who can wield the Blood Sword.

It seems like what the crazy madam said about Gu Yong being the murderer

is about him wanting to kill his own son.

Even a cruel tiger does not devour its cubs.

What on earth did Gu Shan do to make Gu Yong punish him like this?

The most extreme cruelty in the world is almost always imposed in the name of family affection.

Five years ago, the Lantern Festival Case occurred for the first time.

Gu Shan is a very likely suspect.

But why did Gu Yong lie?

The reason he is hiding the fact that Gu Shan is still alive

might be related to the Ripple Token.

It's best not to tarry long. Let's get out of here.

Sure.

It's locked.

This smell.

It seems Gu Yong wants us dead.

As agreed, it's been two hours. Why hasn't Yang Caiwei come yet?

Could it be that Gu Yong discovered them, and they started fighting?

Probably not. I sent many scouts to camp outside Relief Hall.

If something goes wrong, they will immediately come over and notify me.

Could it be that they discovered something, and went back to the county ya men first?

Let's go.

Will we really die here?

Why? Do you regret coming to Heyang?

Do you regret it?

Yes.

I have been always thinking,

if I hadn't come to Heyang in the first place,

would she have survived?

Actually, I...

- I am... - There's wind.

We're underground. Why is there wind?

The slab is loose and has gaps.

This was supposed to be a ventilation opening.

I'll see if I can pry it open.

♫ Like the dew, we wait for the glimmer of light to greet the morning ♫

Shangguan Zhi, hold on. I will get you out of here.

♫ It's sincerity that fools me ♫

♫ But it's seriousness that traps you ♫

♫ The depth of the past is best left unexplored ♫

♫ How many more falls do I have to experience ♫

♫ Before I can face love and hatred with grace? ♫

♫ Don't ask if it's a moment ♫

♫ Of liberation or cowardice to let go ♫

♫ If grasses and trees are sharp blades, if mountains and waters are temples ♫

♫ It's good to be alive even for a short moment ♫

♫ I wish I could be worthy of the thoughts ♫

Shangguan Zhi. Shangguan Zhi.

♫♫

Shangguan Zhi.

Shangguan Zhi.

How beautiful.

What did you say?

How beautiful.

You...

What? Miss Shangguan hasn't come back yet?

No, she hasn't, Master Zhuo. Didn't you go out together?

Could Young Lady be in some kind of trouble?

Where are you going?

- To take them back from the Relief Hall. - How are you going to do that?

Do you have a plan?

It's too late to make plans. Let's go over there first.

- Young Master Zhuo, I'll go with you. - I am going, too.

- What happened? - Young Lady.

I sprained my foot.

Why didn't you leave as planned? What took you so long?

Don't blame him. I'm fine.

Put this on first.

- Ling. - Sir.

Your Young Lady spent half the night freezing in the dungeon.

Take her back quickly and prepare a hot bath for her. And make her some hot ginger soup.

Yes, sir. Young Lady, let's go.

Young Master, have a bowl of hot ginger tea.

Young Master, did being trapped in a dungeon trigger your old illness?

Then...

I'm fine.

Shangguan Zhi saved me.

That's great.

Miss Shangguan can calm your mood?

Look at me. Look at me, Pan Yue.

It's all right. Take it easy.

Adjust your breathing.

Take a deep breath. Take a deep breath.

It's fine.

It's fine.

Young Master.

Young Master.

Nothing.

I'm a little tired. You may go to sleep.

Yes.

♫ In the stormy night ♫

♫ The dark hair of a charming woman is reflected in the flame of a candle ♫

♫ Shrouded by year after year of memories ♫

♫ I can do nothing but feign indifference ♫

♫ Outlining your cheeks ♫

♫ A drunken dream ♫

♫ A person I miss. Of course I know if it's real ♫

[Here lies the late Yang Caiwei]

♫ ♫

[Two months ago]

Mr. Pan, we meet again.

Yesterday, you were a glorious Imperial Censor. How did you become a prisoner today?

Your Highness, are you here to ridicule me?

I'm just thinking,

if you had agreed to be my consort that day,

who would have dared to lay a finger on you?

Being tactful is a valuable trait.

It's not too late for you to regret now.

What a pity.

It seems that Miss Yang had died in vain.

What do you mean?

What do you know? What do you know?

Mr. Pan, I want to work with you.

I also learned a bit about what happened to Yang Ji'an's family.

Although I don't know the specifics, I knew that Yang Ji'an was an upright critic.

He was killed on the way after being demoted. How strange.

Ten years after that, his daughter was just found by you, but died from an accident.

It's very suspicious.

But to say that you are the murderer, I won't believe it.

You rejected me for Miss Yang that day.

Your heart was set on her. How could you kill her?

Someone must have framed you.

My father told me

some powerful ministers in the court

are growing their influence in Heyang with bad intentions.

The murder of Yang Caiwei's family is related to this.

So, as long as we find the person who killed Miss Yang,

we can follow the clues, and find this person's backer in the court.

This is the deal I want to make with you.

I'll bail you out of prison, and you must take this case.

Get to the bottom of things.

Do not worry. I will take care of the Emperor.

All you have to do is find out the truth as soon as possible

and eliminate the nation's traitors.

I, Pan Yue, will not disappoint you.

Pan Yue,

you thought your love was deep-rooted, looking for your old love.

Yet, while you have yet to avenge your late wife,

you are worried about Shangguan Zhi instead.

You should feel ashamed to face Yang Caiwei who died for you,

Her Highness who's helping your investigation, and the friends that trust you.

Even more so, you should be ashamed of yourself.

Didn't you say you could settle everything?

Why did you let Pan Yue target the lair?

Are you becoming more childlike as you age?

What's the reason?

Isn't it all because of Zhuo Lanjiang?

Without him being the insider, betraying me, could Pan Yue have found my dungeon?

That's enough.

Pan Yue found out about Gu Shan.

And how much of our affairs does Gu Shan know?

He knows the relationship between you and me,

and the token is in his hands.

Leave Zhuo Lanjiang to me.

He won't cause any trouble again.

Our top priority is to find Gu Shan before Pan Yue does.

[Ghost Market]

Are the two of you the Fiend Twins of Ghost Market?

- Who are you? - What do you want?

You don't even know me, yet you dare to try to control Ghost Market?

I heard that a few days ago, you confiscated from a jade bracelet stall.

I am here to inform you today that the stall owner named Bai is under me.

Return her belongings as is, and walk away from her whenever you see her. Understood?

The evil fiend takes your soul. The impermanent one demands life.

[Zhuo]

Silver Rain Terrace?

Zhuo Lanjiang?

Do you want to fight me? Do you not value your life?

- Young Master. - Let's leave.

This way, please.

[Heyang Magistrate's Office]

[Edify through music and ritual]

Good morning, sir.

Good morning.

Are you not feeling well?

I'm fine.

Are you still feeling uneasy about what happened in the dungeon?

I will ask Ling to get you some calming medicine.

No, it's okay.

You have to get treated to get better.

Look.

Look at your cheeks.

Your face is red, and you seem dazzled.

I'll get the medicine.

No, I'm fine.

It's an old illness. I just need to rest for a couple of days.

It won't affect my job.

Why is he still the same as when he was a child?

So stubborn.

What about the others? Call them over.

We should discuss how to capture Gu Shan.

Can we discuss this?

Didn't you suspect that someone in the county ya men was a spy?

I asked Ze to check it, but no suspicions have been found yet.

Moreover, with just you and me, it's utterly impossible to find Gu Shan.

Gu Yong has a son named Gu Shan.

He may be the suspect in this Lantern Festival Case.

He was imprisoned and hurt by Gu Yong for a long time.

So when he witnessed violent acts,

he would be unable to restrain himself and run amok to hurt others.

We need to try our best to find Gu Shan.

Do we have Gu Shan's portrait?

From what we know, Gu Shan is thin and not tall.

But it's been five years since anyone saw him,

so his voice and appearance could have changed drastically.

How can we find him, then?

Aren't we looking for a needle in a haystack?

- Yes. Maybe he has already left Heyang. - Yes.

There were still new victims last summer solstice.

It means that canceling the Lantern Festival did not affect his crime.

This summer solstice, he might do it again.

If looking for him is like looking for a needle in a haystack, then let him come to us.

Sir, you mean...

Restart the Lantern Festival and gather the people.

Then, we will deliberately create a violent incident.

I don't believe he could stay quiet.

Good idea.

But the summer solstice is only three days away. It's definitely too late to prepare now.

There's enough time.

There is nothing the Silver Rain Terrace cannot do in Heyang.

That's right, how could we have forgotten our strongest support?

Thank you very much, Young Master Zhuo.

With our relationship, you don't have to thank me. Don't be a stranger.

The Lantern Festival will be organized jointly by the Silver Rain Terrace and the county ya men.

Mr. Pan, what do you think?

Even if I object to it, will you not intervene?

Naturally, I still have to intervene.

If the county ya men and Silver Rain Terrace jointly organize the Lantern Festival this year,

it will definitely be glamorous and breathtaking.

No.

The key point of restarting the Lantern Festival is not about the lights but the people.

In recent years, the incidents have troubled people one after another.

The people are afraid.

We can't hold a knife to the commoner's necks, and force them to join the Lantern Festival.

So, the top priority right now is to eliminate the fear in people's hearts.

Evil wyvern?

- That's right. - This is easy to handle.

The county ya men will post a notice saying that the evil wyvern has been slain,

and the Lantern Festival will be restarted.

Sir, Young Master, with all due respect,

the people of Heyang are traumatized by the last few Lantern Festivals.

Even if we tell them that the evil wyvern has been slain, they will still feel that it's unlucky.

After all, there is no reason to risk it, for a few lanterns.

Other than lanterns, let's add something else.

If there were such a person in Heyang

who was famous, and had many followers,

we could organize a grand event, for him during the Lantern Festival.

For example, a float parade.

Then, using his grace as a gimmick,

we'lll create an opportunity for his followers to interact with him. What do you think?

Won't everyone flock to it?

Well...

The person I'm talking about is our Young Master Zhuo.

Me?

Young Master Zhuo of Silver Rain Terrace is handsome and stylish.

No one is better than you in Heyang.

Not to mention, you were quite low-profile in the past, rarely showing your true face.

If you show up in public this time, you will take the city by storm.

Although this sounds a bit awkward,

since you have spoken, I shall give it my all this time.

If Young Master Zhuo is willing to show his face, it will cause quite a commotion, won't it?

I do not deny that Young Master Zhuo is brave and unparalleled.

It's a pity that there are rumors in Heyang saying

that the Silver Rain Terrace Young Master is bloodthirsty and murderous.

Using him as a gimmick might be counterproductive.

What you say seems to make sense, sir.

But in such a short period,

where can we find another man more attractive than Young Master Zhuo?

I'm such a fool. Our Mr. Pan is here!

Mr. Pan is indeed famous, and followed by many.

However...

But...

Mr. Pan isn't one for public appearances.

Won't this be a trouble to Mr. Pan?

To investigate the case, I am willing to sacrifice a little.

That's great!

Sir, if you show up in person, I'm sure the whole of Heyang will attend the Festival.

Not only is he as stubborn as when he was a kid,

but he is also as easily provoked as ever.

Surprisingly, Mr. Pan cares about these vain titles.

Don't kid me, Young Master Zhuo. I am doing this for the people.

While Mr. Pan is strategizing, Young Master Zhuo organizes the plans.

This time, we will surely capture the culprit and solve the case.

Capture the culprit and solve the case!

[Notice]

- Let's go. - What's written on it?

The evil wyvern wreaked havoc in Heyang, injuring countless people.

The Silver Rain Terrace has captured the evil wyvern.

It was burned and ascended to heaven at Dongguan Altar.

After discussion, the county ya men

decided to reopen the Lantern Festival with Silver Rain Terrace to entertain the people.

To share the joy with people, the Lantern Festival will include a float parade,

festive colored ball tossing, and other activities.

The winner of the jackpot will have the opportunity to join hands with Mr. Pan

- to light up the sky lanterns together. - Mr. Pan.

And pray for Heyang.

The county ya men is going to reopen the Lantern Festival.

Mr. Pan will be on the float parade and tossing festive colored balls.

The Lantern Festival has reopened.

It's time for you to show off your skills.

Gu Shan.

Send this order. Make sure this Lantern Festival is exciting.

We must not let Pan Yue look down on us.

- Yes, Young Master. - Young Master.

Young Master, something happened.

Someone is using your name to cheat in the Ghost Market.

They conned a lot of money.

Really?

Fu, go to Ghost Market.

I'd like to see who is so daring.

Young Master Zhuo, what a coincidence.

I didn't expect you'd to be free to visit Ghost Market.

If I hadn't, some little liar...

would have been the king and ruler in Ghost Market, right?

Who is so bold?

Tell me, and I will take care of him.

The sword I gave you is not for you to pretend to be me.

It hurts.

I'm not pretending to be you. I...

I am upholding justice in your name.

Does bluffing make you just?

What do you know? These are all my own things.

They were the ones bullying others.

They took away the savings I had accumulated for a long time.

I'm just getting back my own belongings.

For real?

Yeah.

Didn't Caiwei say that we are friends?

Friends don't lie to friends, right?

What are you doing?

Somebody is coming.

- How do you know? - I have been hiding everywhere since I was a kid.

If I'm good at only one thing, it's my hearing.

No way. I was just getting my belongings back. It's just a few ingots of silver.

There's no need to send an army, right?

Right?

From their footsteps, they're very skilled.

I don't think they're here to look for you.

Are they here to look for you?

Then, I shan't get in the way of your friendly competition.

Zhuo Lanjiang.

My sword!

What?

My sword!

Sword.

Catch!

Let's go.

Go!

Go!

Young Master.

Chase!
