His Majesty's orders.

Jiang Li's case of helping a prisoner
and Xue Huaiyuan's corruption case
22
00:02:06,783 --> 00:02:10,493
will be trialed together
at the Court of Judicial Review.
23
00:02:11,053 --> 00:02:12,493
Duke Su will be appointed
as the imperial commissioner

to judge the case
on behalf of His Majesty.

Ten days later, the case
will be presented before His Majesty.

Did you meet His Majesty successfully?

What did His Majesty say?
33
00:02:39,383 --> 00:02:41,213
His Majesty wouldn't meet me at all.

That's...
35
00:02:43,333 --> 00:02:44,543
What did His Majesty mean?
36

His Majesty is forcing me
to avoid suspicions.
37

There's no need to worry, Master Jiang.
38
00:02:52,023 --> 00:02:54,423
Tomorrow, I'll enter the palace
and hear what Consort Li has to say.
39
00:02:54,733 --> 00:02:57,303
I'm sorry to trouble you
for running around because of this.

What are you saying?
41
00:02:59,383 --> 00:03:00,983
As your wife,
42
00:03:01,103 --> 00:03:02,543
I know what's at stake.
43
00:03:02,733 --> 00:03:05,143
This is not just about Li's life

but also the Jiang family's reputation.
45
00:03:08,213 --> 00:03:09,893
I will never ignore this.
46
00:03:10,023 --> 00:03:12,053
It's great for you to think that.
47
00:03:12,933 --> 00:03:16,733
It's pitiful that Li has been locked up
at the Court of Judicial Review.
48
00:03:17,383 --> 00:03:19,983
It is extremely bad
for the Jiang family's reputation.
49
00:03:20,983 --> 00:03:22,423
I've also heard some rumors
50

when I'm living here.
51

They said the children
of the Jiang family are no longer pure
52
00:03:27,863 --> 00:03:30,103
after they've been locked up.
53
00:03:30,333 --> 00:03:32,263

in this case.

00:03:44,733 --> 00:03:46,893
Previously, there was a rule
of the yamen in the capital.

If a woman commits a crime,
62
00:03:48,703 --> 00:03:50,773
as long as she doesn't kill
her husband or children,
63
00:03:51,173 --> 00:03:52,543

64
00:03:52,733 --> 00:03:54,863

might be great

but it is still a yamen
in the capital after all.
69
00:04:02,613 --> 00:04:03,863
Since Li is not married,
70
00:04:04,173 --> 00:04:06,703
she can be taken care of
by us at the Jiang residence.

murder her husband or children,

she will be handed over
to the Jiang family to be taken care of.
182

If she goes missing or if you hide her,
you will be punished.

00:10:36,403 --> 00:10:37,283
Thank you, Mr. Zhou.
184
00:10:45,043 --> 00:10:45,853
Don't simply move.
185
00:10:46,763 --> 00:10:47,853
Just leave with me.
186
00:10:52,883 --> 00:10:53,923
Mother, why are you here?
187
00:10:54,483 --> 00:10:56,643
I don't know why you returned to Luyang
188
00:10:57,043 --> 00:10:59,013
and insisted on
overturning the magistrate's case
189
00:10:59,523 --> 00:11:00,683
but I know
190
00:11:00,683 --> 00:11:02,133
your father has grown a lot of grey hair
191
00:11:02,643 --> 00:11:04,403
because of you.
192
00:11:06,563 --> 00:11:09,213
Will you be able to face your father
and the Jiang family?
193
00:11:09,883 --> 00:11:11,043
As your mother,
194
00:11:11,563 --> 00:11:13,043
I can't ignore your father
195
00:11:13,213 --> 00:11:14,733
and the honor of the Jiang family.
196
00:11:15,213 --> 00:11:16,373
When you return to the Jiang family,
197
00:11:16,643 --> 00:11:17,853
you can explain it
198
00:11:17,923 --> 00:11:19,403
to your father and Old Madam.
199
00:11:19,883 --> 00:11:21,563
You are right, Mother.
200
00:11:38,403 --> 00:11:39,133
Grandmother,
201
00:11:40,043 --> 00:11:41,013
I have returned.
202
00:11:41,363 --> 00:11:42,283
Good.
203
00:11:43,883 --> 00:11:44,523
Sit.
204
00:11:49,163 --> 00:11:51,883
Do you know why your father
isn't going to meet you?
205
00:11:52,163 --> 00:11:53,213
I'm sure
206
00:11:53,763 --> 00:11:55,643
father was very worried about me
regarding the Dingzhou issue.
207
00:11:56,043 --> 00:11:57,683
I caused such a big trouble.
208
00:11:58,363 --> 00:11:59,923
I'm sure Father is angry at me.
209
00:12:00,163 --> 00:12:02,333
You are not related
to the Xue family's magistrate.
210
00:12:02,803 --> 00:12:04,683
Why would you get yourself involved
in such a case?
211
00:12:05,403 --> 00:12:07,043
You even brought so many villagers
back to the capital
212
00:12:07,563 --> 00:12:09,163
and risked your life
213
00:12:09,523 --> 00:12:10,883
together with the future
of the Jiang family.
214
00:12:11,283 --> 00:12:14,093
Magistrate Xue's daughter, Xue Fangfei.
215
00:12:15,003 --> 00:12:16,453
She's my savior.
216
00:12:17,283 --> 00:12:19,133
When I was in Zhennyu Hall,
217
00:12:19,523 --> 00:12:20,683
I was mistreated by the Mistress
218
00:12:20,923 --> 00:12:22,043
and almost lost my life.
219
00:12:22,763 --> 00:12:24,923
It was Xue Fangfei who saved me.
220
00:12:25,853 --> 00:12:27,013
Something like that happened?
221
00:12:27,733 --> 00:12:28,803
I went to Luyang
222
00:12:29,763 --> 00:12:30,923
not only to visit my close ones
223
00:12:31,643 --> 00:12:33,133
but also to meet my savior.
224
00:12:33,403 --> 00:12:34,973
However, she passed away at a young age.
225
00:12:35,923 --> 00:12:37,013
Her father was in danger
226
00:12:37,523 --> 00:12:38,803
and I couldn't ignore him.
227
00:12:40,403 --> 00:12:41,373
Li,
228
00:12:42,013 --> 00:12:44,763
I won't stop you
if you want to repay a debt of kindness
229
00:12:45,803 --> 00:12:48,643
but did you have to do that?
230
00:12:51,733 --> 00:12:52,563
I know.
231
00:12:53,333 --> 00:12:54,333
I am a part of the Jiang family.
232
00:12:55,453 --> 00:12:57,683
Every move I make
will affect the Jiang family.
233
00:12:58,523 --> 00:13:00,523
So, it wasn't my intention
to act recklessly.
234
00:13:00,883 --> 00:13:04,043
I only wanted to go to Huaixiang
to meet my benefactor at first.
235
00:13:05,093 --> 00:13:06,683
After I arrived at Huaixiang,
236
00:13:06,973 --> 00:13:09,683
I accidentally discovered
that the new magistrate
237
00:13:10,093 --> 00:13:11,253
was lawless
238
00:13:11,333 --> 00:13:13,133
and exploited the people.
239
00:13:13,803 --> 00:13:15,043
You didn't see it.
240
00:13:15,373 --> 00:13:16,923
Huaixiang was a prosperous place
241
00:13:17,133 --> 00:13:19,133
but it fell to a state
242
00:13:19,133 --> 00:13:20,853
where people dared not step outside
of their homes during the day.
243
00:13:21,323 --> 00:13:22,533
It was very sad.
244
00:13:24,893 --> 00:13:25,603
Grandmother,
245
00:13:27,133 --> 00:13:28,493
you told me
246
00:13:29,053 --> 00:13:30,413
the family rules set by Grandfather.
247
00:13:31,373 --> 00:13:32,653
Protect justice
248
00:13:33,013 --> 00:13:34,133
and righteousness
249
00:13:34,293 --> 00:13:35,413
instead of being greedy
for temporary fame.
250
00:13:36,173 --> 00:13:37,843
It's exactly
because I am a part of the Jiang family
251
00:13:38,293 --> 00:13:40,203
that I can't ignore the people
252
00:13:40,323 --> 00:13:41,563
who are aggrieved and suffering.
253
00:13:42,013 --> 00:13:43,323
I'm very happy
254
00:13:43,683 --> 00:13:44,843
to see you have such integrity.
255
00:13:45,843 --> 00:13:48,653
However, you could tell your father
256
00:13:48,653 --> 00:13:49,723
and let him handle this.
257
00:13:49,963 --> 00:13:52,533
There was no need for you
to put yourself in danger again and again.
258
00:13:53,493 --> 00:13:55,013
I was forced to do that.
259
00:13:55,653 --> 00:13:56,803
The new Huaixiang magistrate
260
00:13:56,803 --> 00:13:58,253
I told you just now
261
00:13:58,773 --> 00:13:59,843
was from the Li family.
262
00:14:01,053 --> 00:14:01,843
What?
263
00:14:03,563 --> 00:14:06,293
In the Soochow Brocade incident
at the Ye family in Luyang,
264
00:14:06,563 --> 00:14:08,533
someone purposely
poisoned the Ye family.
265
00:14:09,493 --> 00:14:12,013
I wrote a letter
to inform Father about that.
266
00:14:12,723 --> 00:14:14,493
I also found clues in Luyang.
267
00:14:15,443 --> 00:14:18,373
The Li family is most probably
the mastermind behind this.
268
00:14:21,803 --> 00:14:24,653
Are you going
to overturn the case for a criminal next?
269
00:14:26,133 --> 00:14:27,173
Since ancient times,
270
00:14:27,603 --> 00:14:29,533
there have been countless wronged cases.
271
00:14:30,293 --> 00:14:32,053
Only a few could be overturned.
272
00:14:32,413 --> 00:14:33,723
If you help a death row prisoner escape
273
00:14:34,083 --> 00:14:35,293
and can't overturn the case,
274
00:14:35,803 --> 00:14:37,253
you'll be executed.
275
00:14:37,413 --> 00:14:38,053
Grandmother,
276
00:14:38,533 --> 00:14:42,173
I've gotten
Xue Huaiyuan's corruption dossier.
277
00:14:43,053 --> 00:14:44,133
The case is a mess
278
00:14:44,493 --> 00:14:45,413
and full of flaws.
279
00:14:46,373 --> 00:14:48,563
Besides, if Magistrate Xue is guilty,
280
00:14:48,803 --> 00:14:50,323
there won't be so many people
281
00:14:50,413 --> 00:14:51,963
entering the capital with me
to make an imperial complaint.
282
00:14:52,133 --> 00:14:55,373
The new magistrate
supported by the Li family
283
00:14:55,563 --> 00:14:56,893
bullies the people
284
00:14:56,893 --> 00:14:57,653
and is nefarious.
285
00:14:58,253 --> 00:14:59,923
The people hate him.
286
00:15:00,773 --> 00:15:03,653
I'll tell your father about this.
287
00:15:04,173 --> 00:15:05,083
Thank you, Grandmother.
288
00:15:05,843 --> 00:15:06,533
What?
289
00:15:07,373 --> 00:15:09,963
The magistrate of Huaixiang
is someone from the Li family?
290
00:15:10,843 --> 00:15:12,083
I'm not wrong.
291
00:15:13,443 --> 00:15:15,323
The Li family and the Jiang family
have been enemies for so long.
292
00:15:16,413 --> 00:15:17,293
Over the years,
293
00:15:17,773 --> 00:15:20,053
the Li family has been
nurturing its faction.
294
00:15:20,493 --> 00:15:23,373
Meanwhile, the Jiang family
is not as powerful as it used to be.
295
00:15:23,803 --> 00:15:26,413
I'm sure you know this
better than anyone else.
296
00:15:26,893 --> 00:15:29,053
The Li family has made their move now.
297
00:15:29,653 --> 00:15:31,493
Are we going to turn a blind eye to it?
298
00:15:31,893 --> 00:15:36,413
No wonder Li Zhongnan
wrote the memorial himself.
299
00:15:37,293 --> 00:15:39,443
He wanted Jiang Li dead.
300
00:15:40,133 --> 00:15:41,603
You've finally understood.
301
00:15:41,653 --> 00:15:44,683
If Xue Huaiyuan's case
can be overturned,
302
00:15:45,253 --> 00:15:47,803
we can hurt
the Li family's morale indeed.
303
00:15:48,253 --> 00:15:52,013
However, Li Zhongnan
will also have a grudge against us.
304
00:15:52,413 --> 00:15:54,293
When he gets an opportunity
in the future,
305
00:15:54,493 --> 00:15:56,893
he will take revenge
on the Jiang family like crazy.
306
00:15:57,173 --> 00:15:58,603
If you don't do anything,
307
00:15:59,203 --> 00:16:00,683
will the Li family stop hating us?
308
00:16:00,773 --> 00:16:02,653
They started the whole thing
309
00:16:02,773 --> 00:16:04,563
and they've harmed the Ye family.
310
00:16:05,653 --> 00:16:06,803
Who is the Ye family?
311
00:16:07,373 --> 00:16:08,923
They are our relatives
bonded by marriage.
312
00:16:09,133 --> 00:16:10,563
If we don't do anything,
313
00:16:11,293 --> 00:16:13,803
how will the people
view the Jiang family?
314
00:16:14,173 --> 00:16:16,803
Although Li does things
with her passion alone
315
00:16:17,133 --> 00:16:20,173
and seemed reckless
to hit the Dengwen Drum,
316
00:16:20,293 --> 00:16:22,923
His Majesty said he would
judge the trial himself.
317
00:16:23,173 --> 00:16:25,323
That means His Majesty also thought
318
00:16:25,323 --> 00:16:27,083
there was something wrong
with Xue Huaiyuan's case.
319
00:16:27,203 --> 00:16:29,203
Doesn't that
give us a chance to counter?
320
00:16:29,773 --> 00:16:31,963
Shuran has brought Li back now.
321
00:16:32,083 --> 00:16:33,893
We have nothing to be afraid of.
322
00:16:34,203 --> 00:16:35,253
Since it has come to this,
323
00:16:36,563 --> 00:16:37,843
we should help Li
324
00:16:38,253 --> 00:16:40,083
and strike the Li family.
325
00:16:53,443 --> 00:16:54,533
Did you miss out?
326
00:16:55,083 --> 00:16:55,843
What do you mean?
327
00:16:56,133 --> 00:16:57,413
I thought you came back late
328
00:16:58,173 --> 00:16:59,683
because you went
to the Court of Judicial Review's prison
329
00:17:00,083 --> 00:17:01,923
to see Jiang Li
330
00:17:01,923 --> 00:17:03,563
who looks the same as your late wife.
331
00:17:06,363 --> 00:17:07,013
Hold it!
332
00:17:09,453 --> 00:17:11,493
You are so boring.
333
00:17:12,053 --> 00:17:13,163
You can't be teased at all.
334
00:17:14,013 --> 00:17:15,213
Help me take a look
335
00:17:15,293 --> 00:17:16,803
and see which outfit
makes me look better.
336
00:17:20,733 --> 00:17:22,083
Help me take a look.
337
00:17:22,323 --> 00:17:24,773
Which outfit makes me look better?
338
00:17:26,973 --> 00:17:27,973
All bright colours suit you.
339
00:17:28,803 --> 00:17:30,083
Don't you prefer plain colours?
340
00:17:30,603 --> 00:17:31,693
That's because I'm lowly.
341
00:17:33,323 --> 00:17:33,883
All right.
342
00:17:34,933 --> 00:17:37,053
I'll choose the red outfit.
343
00:17:37,883 --> 00:17:39,563
I'll wear it
344
00:17:40,053 --> 00:17:41,973
to meet Second Lady Jiang.
345
00:17:47,973 --> 00:17:48,973
Your Highness,
346
00:17:49,643 --> 00:17:50,883
why are you going to the trial tomorrow?
347
00:17:51,643 --> 00:17:53,403
I'll be there to add salt to the wound.
348
00:17:55,323 --> 00:17:57,253
I hope you don't start a fire
349
00:17:57,533 --> 00:17:58,533
and end up burning yourself.
350
00:18:01,773 --> 00:18:02,453
Shen Yurong,
351
00:18:03,643 --> 00:18:05,013
I've tolerated you for a long time.
352
00:18:06,163 --> 00:18:07,293
Your Highness, please turn around.
353
00:18:07,643 --> 00:18:08,643
I'll help you tidy your sleeves.
354
00:18:16,213 --> 00:18:17,883
I've always wanted to know
355
00:18:18,773 --> 00:18:20,213
that if given another chance,
356
00:18:21,933 --> 00:18:24,293
would you bury Xue Fangfei
357
00:18:24,883 --> 00:18:25,773
or kill me?
358
00:18:28,603 --> 00:18:29,403
I'd rather
359
00:18:30,453 --> 00:18:32,053
die in Your Highness' hands.
360
00:18:43,483 --> 00:18:44,723
[Taiji Hall]
361
00:18:49,733 --> 00:18:50,643
Second Lady Jiang.
362
00:18:58,403 --> 00:19:00,603
Why isn't Jiang Yuanbai here with you?
363
00:19:01,013 --> 00:19:04,083
I think you've gotten used to
the Court of Judicial Review prison.
364
00:19:04,213 --> 00:19:06,253
You've become brave now.
365
00:19:06,643 --> 00:19:08,843
I'm sure you are Grand Chancellor Li.
366
00:19:09,533 --> 00:19:10,453
Thanks for your concern,
367
00:19:10,733 --> 00:19:12,363
I've been released from prison.
368
00:19:14,053 --> 00:19:15,693
The Secretariat Director
has always been a steady man.
369
00:19:15,803 --> 00:19:16,803
I didn't expect her daughter
370
00:19:16,803 --> 00:19:18,843
to be courageous.
371
00:19:19,053 --> 00:19:21,403
Now that you've become capable,
372
00:19:21,563 --> 00:19:23,053
it's really surprising.
373
00:19:23,323 --> 00:19:24,493
That's too much praise,
Grand Chancellor Li.
374
00:19:25,083 --> 00:19:27,843
It seems like
Second Lady Jiang is confident.
375
00:19:28,253 --> 00:19:29,773
Are you sure you will get me involved
376
00:19:29,773 --> 00:19:30,843
in today's matter
377
00:19:30,843 --> 00:19:32,643
which is why
you don't feel scared at all?
378
00:19:33,163 --> 00:19:34,123
What are you thinking?
379
00:19:34,533 --> 00:19:36,453
Are you thinking about
how I know about this?
380
00:19:36,843 --> 00:19:37,773
Let me tell you,
381
00:19:38,083 --> 00:19:38,933
Second Lady Jiang.
382
00:19:39,883 --> 00:19:41,323
There's nothing in this world
383
00:19:41,643 --> 00:19:43,603
that I don't know of.
384
00:19:44,323 --> 00:19:45,733
You are too naive
385
00:19:45,733 --> 00:19:47,213
if you plan to play tricks
386
00:19:47,213 --> 00:19:48,603
behind my back.
387
00:19:48,803 --> 00:19:50,323
Even your father dares not do that
388
00:19:50,493 --> 00:19:52,013
but a young girl like you
389
00:19:52,643 --> 00:19:54,253
acts so greedily.
390
00:19:54,563 --> 00:19:55,493
Are you not afraid
391
00:19:55,493 --> 00:19:57,533
that you might die a cruel death
in the end?
392
00:19:57,733 --> 00:20:01,213
Grand Chancellor Li, are you reminding me
to leave you a way out
393
00:20:01,973 --> 00:20:03,403
and not back people into a corner?
394
00:20:03,883 --> 00:20:06,053
Second Lady Jiang, you are brave.
395
00:20:06,293 --> 00:20:08,213
You are so much better
396
00:20:08,253 --> 00:20:09,693
than the two incapable sons of mine.
397
00:20:10,493 --> 00:20:13,083
I wonder how long
can you keep your bravery up.
398
00:20:13,533 --> 00:20:15,293
After today's ruling before His Majesty,
399
00:20:15,363 --> 00:20:16,733
I'm afraid Jiang Yuanbai
400
00:20:16,883 --> 00:20:20,453
will have no choice but to abandon you.
401
00:20:20,723 --> 00:20:21,593
Grand Chancellor Li.
402
00:20:24,003 --> 00:20:25,723
Duke Su, you are early as well.
403
00:20:26,673 --> 00:20:27,833
I was standing far away
404
00:20:28,043 --> 00:20:28,963
and couldn't hear you clearly.
405
00:20:29,393 --> 00:20:31,723
What were you saying
to educate Second Lady Jiang?
406
00:20:32,353 --> 00:20:35,003
She even said something about
leaving you a way out.
407
00:20:35,563 --> 00:20:36,723
I was rude.
408
00:20:37,243 --> 00:20:38,153
Second Lady Jiang,
409
00:20:38,763 --> 00:20:40,193
what you said comes from the art of war.
410
00:20:40,763 --> 00:20:42,003
It's aggressive.
411
00:20:42,283 --> 00:20:43,393
If you meet someone old
412
00:20:43,393 --> 00:20:46,003
such as Grand Chancellor Li
in the future,
413
00:20:46,433 --> 00:20:47,523
you must speak cautiously.
414
00:20:48,563 --> 00:20:49,673
Yes.
415
00:20:50,353 --> 00:20:53,193
Duke Su, you take good care of her.
416
00:20:53,193 --> 00:20:53,913
Not really.
417
00:20:55,043 --> 00:20:56,523
I'm just better
418
00:20:56,523 --> 00:20:59,003
at teaching someone than you,
Grand Chancellor Li.
419
00:21:01,763 --> 00:21:04,593
We still don't know the results
of today's trial.
420
00:21:05,323 --> 00:21:07,563
Second Lady Jiang
is still confident now.
421
00:21:08,283 --> 00:21:10,003
I hope she can still smile
the way she does now
422
00:21:10,323 --> 00:21:12,673
when the trial is over.
423
00:21:13,833 --> 00:21:14,393
Farewell.
424
00:21:25,673 --> 00:21:27,963
Duke Su, thanks for helping me
in a crisis once again.
425
00:21:28,283 --> 00:21:29,323
This is not a crisis
426
00:21:29,763 --> 00:21:30,723
for you.
427
00:21:31,123 --> 00:21:32,163
You can't say that.
428
00:21:32,933 --> 00:21:34,123
At least, I can see
429
00:21:34,643 --> 00:21:36,213
that Li Zhongnan comes prepared.
430
00:21:36,973 --> 00:21:37,933
In that case,
431
00:21:38,363 --> 00:21:41,013
I have to tell you something in advance.
432
00:21:53,083 --> 00:21:53,973
Relax.
433
00:21:54,733 --> 00:21:55,603
I'm not planning
434
00:21:56,013 --> 00:21:57,803
to hand you over to the opponent yet.
435
00:22:01,733 --> 00:22:03,323
If Duke Su says that,
436
00:22:04,643 --> 00:22:06,493
I'll need to offer my thank you gift.
437
00:22:09,083 --> 00:22:10,363
I've been trapped
in my residence recently.
438
00:22:11,083 --> 00:22:13,643
I sewed the handkerchief
you asked me to sew.
439
00:22:21,533 --> 00:22:22,643
Your embroidery is good.
440
00:22:23,323 --> 00:22:26,883
My embroidery cannot be compared
to the one who sewed your handkerchief.
441
00:22:28,013 --> 00:22:29,843
I didn't even dare sew it at first
442
00:22:30,643 --> 00:22:32,083
because I was afraid
I would ruin the feelings of the dead.
443
00:22:32,693 --> 00:22:34,253
You've learned about my background?
444
00:22:34,973 --> 00:22:38,403
Duke Su, your father, General Xiao,
is a famous general of our kingdom.
445
00:22:39,403 --> 00:22:40,563
He was a soldier his whole life.
446
00:22:40,883 --> 00:22:42,013
The whole world knows that.
447
00:22:43,053 --> 00:22:44,883
Madam Yu loved her a lot.
448
00:22:45,643 --> 00:22:48,323
She was also a woman to be respected.
449
00:22:48,493 --> 00:22:49,733
What about your father?
450
00:22:50,363 --> 00:22:51,533
What about me?
451
00:22:54,253 --> 00:22:55,213
Grand Chancellor Jiang.
452
00:22:56,253 --> 00:22:58,773
Grand Chancellor Jiang,
I'm sure you work hard
453
00:22:58,773 --> 00:22:59,933
and love the people.
454
00:23:01,213 --> 00:23:03,293
I have something to say to my daughter.
455
00:23:08,323 --> 00:23:09,053
Father.
456
00:23:14,933 --> 00:23:15,843
You've suffered.
457
00:23:16,123 --> 00:23:19,293
I thought
you wouldn't forgive me anymore.
458
00:23:19,363 --> 00:23:21,253
You are my daughter after all.
459
00:23:22,053 --> 00:23:24,883
Your grandmother
told me all of your thoughts.
460
00:23:25,293 --> 00:23:27,083
Don't be scared later.
461
00:23:27,323 --> 00:23:28,733
Just say anything on your mind.
462
00:23:29,493 --> 00:23:31,363
I have your back.
463
00:23:33,323 --> 00:23:34,213
Thank you, Father.
464
00:23:36,123 --> 00:23:38,803
[Prosperous Era]
His Majesty is here!
465
00:23:43,643 --> 00:23:46,843
Greetings, Your Majesty.
466
00:23:52,803 --> 00:23:53,933
Everyone, stand up.
467
00:23:54,283 --> 00:23:56,053
Thank you, Your Majesty.
468
00:23:58,523 --> 00:24:01,883
[Prosperous Era]
469
00:24:08,323 --> 00:24:11,603
Regarding the Huaixiang Magistrate,
Xue Huaiyuan's corruption case,
470
00:24:11,963 --> 00:24:14,253
it was supposed to be judged
by the state court
471
00:24:14,523 --> 00:24:16,163
and the dossier was handed
to the Ministry of Justice
472
00:24:16,363 --> 00:24:17,563
to be closed.
473
00:24:18,323 --> 00:24:22,453
Due to the people of Huaixiang
doubting the result of the case,
474
00:24:22,643 --> 00:24:23,883
they have appealed for him.
475
00:24:24,363 --> 00:24:26,643
His Majesty
understands the people's pleas
476
00:24:26,933 --> 00:24:30,563
and ordered the Ministry of Justice to hand
the case to the Court of Judicial Review.
477
00:24:31,083 --> 00:24:33,083
It will be hosted by
the Secretary of Judicial Review
478
00:24:33,323 --> 00:24:34,603
and judged together
479
00:24:34,803 --> 00:24:36,253
with the Ministry of Justice.
480
00:24:36,563 --> 00:24:37,843
The trial today
481
00:24:38,293 --> 00:24:41,053
will be supervised by His Majesty.
482
00:24:41,363 --> 00:24:42,053
Zhou,
483
00:24:43,213 --> 00:24:44,013
you may begin.
484
00:24:44,013 --> 00:24:45,803
Yes.
485
00:24:47,803 --> 00:24:49,733
Summon Second Lady Jiang.
486
00:24:50,123 --> 00:24:52,603
Summon Second Lady Jiang!
487
00:24:53,403 --> 00:24:56,053
Summon Second Lady Jiang!
488
00:25:11,013 --> 00:25:13,323
I, Jiang Li, greet Your Majesty.
489
00:25:14,013 --> 00:25:14,803
Stand and speak.
490
00:25:15,123 --> 00:25:15,973
Yes, Your Majesty.
491
00:25:17,973 --> 00:25:18,803
Second Lady Jiang,
492
00:25:19,563 --> 00:25:21,253
did you bring the people of Huaixiang
into the capital
493
00:25:21,693 --> 00:25:23,293
because of
494
00:25:23,293 --> 00:25:26,973
the corruption case of Xue Huaiyuan,
the Huaixiang magistrate?
495
00:25:27,253 --> 00:25:28,293
Secretary of Judicial Review,
496
00:25:28,733 --> 00:25:29,563
Half a year ago,
497
00:25:30,493 --> 00:25:31,973
the Huaixiang magistrate, Xue Huaiyuan,
498
00:25:32,733 --> 00:25:34,973
was accused
by the magistrate's guard, Feng Yutang,
499
00:25:35,493 --> 00:25:36,603
for embezzling the court's money.
500
00:25:36,973 --> 00:25:38,773
He was judged to be executed
after the court's trial
501
00:25:38,883 --> 00:25:39,693
and was awaiting his execution.
502
00:25:39,933 --> 00:25:42,083
I went to Huaixiang to visit a friend
503
00:25:43,083 --> 00:25:44,973
and accidentally discovered there was
more than meets the eye to the case.
504
00:25:45,453 --> 00:25:46,803
According to my understanding,
505
00:25:47,083 --> 00:25:48,363
All of you
506
00:25:48,453 --> 00:25:50,163
rushed into the Huaixiang county yamen
507
00:25:50,493 --> 00:25:51,973
on the day
when Xue Huaiyuan would be executed
508
00:25:52,403 --> 00:25:53,843
to take him away.
509
00:25:54,163 --> 00:25:55,803
Do you admit to this?
510
00:25:56,213 --> 00:25:56,773
I admit.
511
00:25:57,453 --> 00:26:01,493
Do you know that the action
is a serious crime?
512
00:26:01,643 --> 00:26:02,323
I know.
513
00:26:03,563 --> 00:26:04,883
It was a last resort.
514
00:26:06,253 --> 00:26:07,453
If we didn't do that,
515
00:26:08,973 --> 00:26:12,323
Xue Huaiyuan's grievance
and the suffering of Huaixiang's people
516
00:26:12,803 --> 00:26:14,213
will never see the light of day.
517
00:26:15,163 --> 00:26:17,163
I will take responsibility
for the crime I committed.
518
00:26:18,013 --> 00:26:19,933
But I hope
Your Majesty and all officials
519
00:26:21,013 --> 00:26:25,123
can help Magistrate Xue
redress the injustice before convicting me.
520
00:26:25,323 --> 00:26:26,293
Who was in charge
521
00:26:26,293 --> 00:26:28,563
of Xue Huaiyuan's case
at the Ministry of Justice?
522
00:26:29,843 --> 00:26:31,083
[Prosperous Era]
523
00:26:31,083 --> 00:26:32,563
I was in charge.
524
00:26:33,013 --> 00:26:34,083
I remember
525
00:26:34,603 --> 00:26:37,493
the dossier of this case
was not complicated.
526
00:26:37,773 --> 00:26:40,643
Ten crates of silver were found
in Xue Huaiyuan's residence
527
00:26:40,643 --> 00:26:41,603
which totaled 5,000 taels
528
00:26:41,603 --> 00:26:43,253
and a private ledger.
529
00:26:43,973 --> 00:26:46,973
Along with the testimony
from the county magistrate, Feng Yutang,
530
00:26:47,123 --> 00:26:49,643
we had both evidence and a witness.
531
00:26:50,083 --> 00:26:54,123
There was nothing strange
as Second Lady Jiang mentioned.
532
00:26:55,493 --> 00:26:58,163
Second Lady Jiang went
to Huaixiang personally.
533
00:26:58,563 --> 00:27:01,363
I think she had discovered
something unknown to others.
534
00:27:01,843 --> 00:27:03,563
Since you are trying
to overturn a case for a criminal,
535
00:27:04,293 --> 00:27:07,643
please present new evidence
before His Majesty, Second Lady Jiang,
536
00:27:08,213 --> 00:27:09,493
and let us judge.
537
00:27:12,013 --> 00:27:13,123
I have no new evidence.
538
00:27:13,323 --> 00:27:14,293
How dare you.
539
00:27:15,733 --> 00:27:17,123
Since you have no new evidence,
540
00:27:17,603 --> 00:27:18,803
how dare you bewitch the people
541
00:27:18,883 --> 00:27:20,883
to come to the capital
and sound the Dengwen Drum
542
00:27:20,933 --> 00:27:22,293
and force His Majesty to retry the case?
543
00:27:23,013 --> 00:27:23,973
Second Lady Jiang,
544
00:27:24,563 --> 00:27:26,733
are you underestimating Your Majesty?
545
00:27:27,163 --> 00:27:29,293
My daughter is not done talking yet.
546
00:27:29,933 --> 00:27:30,843
Why do you feel anxious?
547
00:27:32,973 --> 00:27:34,403
Since I can't present new evidence,
548
00:27:35,843 --> 00:27:36,973
I will change my request.
549
00:27:37,733 --> 00:27:38,293
Your Majesty,
550
00:27:38,773 --> 00:27:39,973
I came all the way
551
00:27:40,053 --> 00:27:42,323
with the people of Huaixiang
to sound the Dengwen Drum
552
00:27:42,643 --> 00:27:44,123
not to help Xue Huaiyuan get acquitted
553
00:27:44,403 --> 00:27:46,563
but to ask Your Majesty to convict him!
554
00:27:50,883 --> 00:27:52,323
Silence!
555
00:27:53,403 --> 00:27:54,163
Convict him?
556
00:27:55,123 --> 00:27:56,083
What do you mean?
557
00:27:56,403 --> 00:27:57,453
As you all know,
558
00:27:57,803 --> 00:28:01,453
there's concrete evidence
to the Huaixiang magistrate,
559
00:28:01,643 --> 00:28:02,603
Xue Huaiyuan's embezzlement.
560
00:28:03,533 --> 00:28:04,843
He is a worm in the government.
561
00:28:05,253 --> 00:28:06,643
Your Majesty prioritizes integrity.
562
00:28:07,053 --> 00:28:08,533
How dare a mere magistrate of Huaixiang
563
00:28:08,563 --> 00:28:10,013
be so daring?
564
00:28:10,163 --> 00:28:12,213
Imprisonment and execution
cannot appease the people's anger.
565
00:28:12,733 --> 00:28:13,533
I think
566
00:28:14,083 --> 00:28:16,563
he should be punished
by slashing with a thousand knives.
567
00:28:18,403 --> 00:28:20,563
Didn't she say
she is overturning the case?
568
00:28:21,293 --> 00:28:22,603
Is she admitting defeat
569
00:28:22,803 --> 00:28:24,053
because she has no evidence?
570
00:28:24,973 --> 00:28:27,803
Xue Huaiyuan might have
a lowly position
571
00:28:28,013 --> 00:28:30,363
but he is still an official
of the Great Yan.
572
00:28:30,533 --> 00:28:31,973
He has been an official
of Huaixiang for a decade.
573
00:28:32,533 --> 00:28:34,253
He only got found out
with corruption last year
574
00:28:34,803 --> 00:28:36,363
and the evidence
was just a mere 5,000 taels.
575
00:28:36,563 --> 00:28:37,323
Ten years
576
00:28:37,803 --> 00:28:38,603
and only 5,000 taels.
577
00:28:39,293 --> 00:28:40,323
I don't think the number is right.
578
00:28:40,563 --> 00:28:41,563
How is it wrong?
579
00:28:41,973 --> 00:28:42,973
For ten years,
580
00:28:43,323 --> 00:28:45,293
he has been an official with integrity
581
00:28:45,643 --> 00:28:48,403
or should I say
his corruption was perfect?
582
00:28:48,733 --> 00:28:50,013
Perhaps he was working with someone else
583
00:28:50,533 --> 00:28:51,563
to transport the money.
584
00:28:52,013 --> 00:28:54,363
The last 5,000 taels left
was only the leftover amount.
585
00:28:55,363 --> 00:28:57,403
Where's the other money?
586
00:28:58,213 --> 00:28:59,363
The Ministry of Justice
did not investigate
587
00:28:59,733 --> 00:29:00,843
and it was not recorded in the dossier.
588
00:29:01,883 --> 00:29:03,973
Perhaps he used the money
to purchase soldiers and horses.
589
00:29:04,533 --> 00:29:07,163
Then, he should be suspected of treason.
590
00:29:07,883 --> 00:29:09,693
The Court of Judicial Review killed him
without investigating this.
591
00:29:10,453 --> 00:29:11,363
If you think carefully,
592
00:29:11,643 --> 00:29:12,403
aren't you worried?
593
00:29:14,253 --> 00:29:15,363
We must investigate it in detail.
594
00:29:15,843 --> 00:29:17,493
However, we have no new evidence
595
00:29:17,643 --> 00:29:18,803
to reinvestigate this dossier.
596
00:29:19,323 --> 00:29:20,323
What should we do?
597
00:29:20,643 --> 00:29:21,733
That is why
598
00:29:22,533 --> 00:29:24,643
I brought the people of Huaixiang
to the capital.
599
00:29:25,563 --> 00:29:26,803
I want to summon witnesses.
600
00:29:27,563 --> 00:29:28,123
Approved.
601
00:29:28,693 --> 00:29:29,493
Summon the witnesses!
602
00:29:41,243 --> 00:29:42,403
[Prosperous Era]
603
00:29:42,403 --> 00:29:43,323
Kneel!
604
00:29:45,883 --> 00:29:48,293
Regarding the Huaiyang Magistrate,
Xue Huaiyuan's corruption case,
605
00:29:48,493 --> 00:29:49,693
what do you have to say?
606
00:29:50,493 --> 00:29:51,053
Your Majesty,
607
00:29:51,733 --> 00:29:54,773
I don't know about
Magistrate Xue's corruption case.
608
00:29:55,083 --> 00:29:56,363
I only know...
609
00:29:56,843 --> 00:29:57,883
Raise your head and speak.
610
00:30:02,803 --> 00:30:06,933
I only know that both my daughter and I
would be bullied
611
00:30:07,083 --> 00:30:09,403
and killed
612
00:30:09,563 --> 00:30:10,643
if it wasn't for Magistrate Xue.
613
00:30:11,213 --> 00:30:12,643
After my husband died,
614
00:30:12,973 --> 00:30:14,533
I was raising my child alone.
615
00:30:15,053 --> 00:30:16,323
When we were
at our most difficult period,
616
00:30:16,933 --> 00:30:19,363
Magistrate Xue used his own salary
617
00:30:19,363 --> 00:30:20,163
[Inner Tranquility]
to subsidize us.
618
00:30:20,643 --> 00:30:21,163
He Jun,
619
00:30:21,883 --> 00:30:22,773
help them clean the place.
620
00:30:23,773 --> 00:30:25,363
If someone dares bully them,
621
00:30:25,563 --> 00:30:26,493
punish them according to the law.
622
00:30:26,603 --> 00:30:27,083
Yes.
623
00:30:27,163 --> 00:30:27,773
Ping'an.
624
00:30:28,403 --> 00:30:29,493
Go and thank Magistrate Xue.
625
00:30:29,563 --> 00:30:29,973
Hurry.
626
00:30:29,973 --> 00:30:31,013
[Inner Tranquility]
627
00:30:31,013 --> 00:30:32,083
Thank you, Mr. Xue.
628
00:30:32,083 --> 00:30:32,803
All right.
629
00:30:33,453 --> 00:30:34,163
It's fine now.
630
00:30:34,403 --> 00:30:35,803
No one dares bully you again.
631
00:30:38,563 --> 00:30:40,013
If Magistrate Xue didn't sponsor me,
632
00:30:40,603 --> 00:30:43,083
I might still be illiterate.
633
00:30:43,643 --> 00:30:44,843
My house was poor
634
00:30:45,083 --> 00:30:45,973
and couldn't study.
635
00:30:46,603 --> 00:30:47,933
Magistrate Xue was generous
636
00:30:47,933 --> 00:30:48,643
and gave me money
637
00:30:49,163 --> 00:30:50,843
so I could return to the academy
638
00:30:51,123 --> 00:30:52,053
and become a scholar.
639
00:30:52,293 --> 00:30:52,883
Gu Da.
640
00:30:53,643 --> 00:30:54,643
Give him money to study.
641
00:30:55,163 --> 00:30:56,453
Get the money from my salary.
642
00:30:57,253 --> 00:30:57,533
Yes.
643
00:30:57,693 --> 00:30:58,163
Mother.
644
00:30:58,163 --> 00:30:58,733
Son.
645
00:30:58,733 --> 00:30:59,733
I can study again.
646
00:30:59,843 --> 00:31:01,293
Yes! That's great!
647
00:31:02,933 --> 00:31:05,053
They said the pork I sold
648
00:31:05,053 --> 00:31:06,083
was poisonous.
649
00:31:06,453 --> 00:31:07,693
If it wasn't for Magistrate Xue,
650
00:31:07,803 --> 00:31:10,323
my ancestor's assets would've been stolen
by the bullies.
651
00:31:11,803 --> 00:31:12,363
Stop!
652
00:31:14,253 --> 00:31:15,603
I wanted to pay Magistrate Xue
653
00:31:15,883 --> 00:31:16,643
but he refused.
654
00:31:17,363 --> 00:31:17,933
Your Majesty,
655
00:31:18,163 --> 00:31:19,323
please investigate it.
656
00:31:19,533 --> 00:31:22,803
Magistrate Xue
will never do something corrupt.
657
00:31:22,843 --> 00:31:24,293
Magistrate Xue is a good person.
658
00:31:24,293 --> 00:31:25,293
Yes!
659
00:31:25,293 --> 00:31:28,883
Magistrate Xue is a good person.
660
00:31:28,883 --> 00:31:30,363
He wouldn't do something like that.
661
00:31:30,363 --> 00:31:31,013
Yes!
662
00:31:31,933 --> 00:31:33,293
These are just their testimonies.
663
00:31:33,643 --> 00:31:35,453
If they were paid
664
00:31:35,803 --> 00:31:39,163
to speak for the corrupt officials,
665
00:31:39,733 --> 00:31:41,123
it wouldn't be something too difficult.
666
00:31:42,123 --> 00:31:42,883
Zhou,
667
00:31:43,323 --> 00:31:45,253
you need to be careful.
668
00:31:45,563 --> 00:31:47,163
Secretary of Justice, you are right.
669
00:31:47,363 --> 00:31:49,293
A corrupt official
670
00:31:49,293 --> 00:31:51,013
will not do so much for the people.
671
00:31:51,253 --> 00:31:53,453
I'm sure these people were bribed
672
00:31:53,843 --> 00:31:54,733
and spoke nonsense.
673
00:31:55,213 --> 00:31:57,843
Please summon other witnesses.
674
00:31:58,533 --> 00:31:59,453
Summon the witnesses.
675
00:32:08,563 --> 00:32:09,493
Kneel!
676
00:32:11,563 --> 00:32:13,643
Magistrate Xue paved my entrance's road.
677
00:32:13,733 --> 00:32:14,693
There was a flood
678
00:32:14,843 --> 00:32:16,803
and Magistrate Xue
did not return for three days.
679
00:32:17,083 --> 00:32:19,603
Magistrate Xue gave me money
to treat my illness.
680
00:32:19,603 --> 00:32:21,293
Magistrate's Xue's grace...
681
00:32:21,403 --> 00:32:22,253
Magistrate Xue's kindness...
682
00:32:22,253 --> 00:32:23,803
If it wasn't for Magistrate Xue...
683
00:32:23,803 --> 00:32:26,253
Your Majesty, please investigate it!
684
00:32:26,453 --> 00:32:29,163
Your Majesty, please investigate it!
685
00:32:32,803 --> 00:32:36,123
Every incident sounds touching.
686
00:32:37,493 --> 00:32:38,883
They remind me
687
00:32:38,883 --> 00:32:41,363
of the corruption case three years ago
by the Qingzhou Magistrate.
688
00:32:41,803 --> 00:32:44,363
The magistrate embezzled
a huge amount of money back then
689
00:32:44,643 --> 00:32:47,053
and used a small amount of money
to help the people.
690
00:32:47,643 --> 00:32:49,053
When we seized his assets,
691
00:32:49,213 --> 00:32:50,403
there were also many people
692
00:32:50,693 --> 00:32:52,053
who knelt and plead
693
00:32:52,053 --> 00:32:53,363
for him.
694
00:32:53,773 --> 00:32:56,563
Secretary of Judicial Review,
you supervised the case.
695
00:32:56,803 --> 00:32:57,693
Have you forgotten?
696
00:32:57,843 --> 00:32:58,973
I still recall it.
697
00:32:59,563 --> 00:33:01,053
Grand Chancellor Li, you are right.
698
00:33:01,773 --> 00:33:03,363
He spent a small amount on the people
699
00:33:03,643 --> 00:33:05,773
and a big amount on buying lands, right?
700
00:33:06,363 --> 00:33:08,803
The Great Yan does have
such a greedy official.
701
00:33:09,453 --> 00:33:10,883
Feng Yutang is one of them.
702
00:33:11,973 --> 00:33:14,803
After Feng Yutang became
the Huaixiang Magistrate for half a year,
703
00:33:15,323 --> 00:33:16,973
[Prosperous Era]
He bought furniture for himself.
704
00:33:17,403 --> 00:33:19,403
His family members
are wearing jewellery.
705
00:33:19,403 --> 00:33:20,253
They live a lavish lifestyle.
706
00:33:20,453 --> 00:33:23,013
Xue Huaiyuan was a magistrate
at Huaixiang for ten years.
707
00:33:23,933 --> 00:33:25,323
I'm sure he has more assets than him.
708
00:33:25,973 --> 00:33:27,563
Half a year ago,
Xue Huaiyuan was imprisoned
709
00:33:27,693 --> 00:33:28,843
and his assets were seized.
710
00:33:29,363 --> 00:33:31,013
I request the censorate
711
00:33:31,603 --> 00:33:33,643
to announce the assets seized
from the Xue family
712
00:33:33,643 --> 00:33:34,563
and the Feng family.
713
00:33:35,053 --> 00:33:36,083
Show everyone
714
00:33:36,453 --> 00:33:37,563
how much worse
715
00:33:38,123 --> 00:33:40,013
Xue Huaiyuan is compared to Feng Yutang.
716
00:33:40,323 --> 00:33:43,563
Censorate, please present
both their family's assets.
717
00:33:47,643 --> 00:33:50,163
The former Huaixiang Magistrate,
Xue Huaiyuan
718
00:33:50,293 --> 00:33:52,453
had no houses and lands
719
00:33:52,693 --> 00:33:53,733
when he was a magistrate.
720
00:33:54,013 --> 00:33:55,843
The amount of money
seized from his residence
721
00:33:56,533 --> 00:34:00,083
and his total assets
amount to a total of 5,000 taels.
722
00:34:03,533 --> 00:34:05,973
The current Huaixiang Magistrate,
Feng Yutang,
723
00:34:06,603 --> 00:34:09,813
has more than 40 houses
when he is a magistrate.
724
00:34:10,533 --> 00:34:13,243
The number of fields he owned
has not been recorded yet.
725
00:34:13,483 --> 00:34:14,373
[Prosperous Era]
726
00:34:14,373 --> 00:34:17,533
After investigation,
his houses, fields, and savings,
727
00:34:17,643 --> 00:34:20,493
exceed a total of 200,000 tales.
728
00:34:20,493 --> 00:34:21,893
200,000 taels?
729
00:34:21,893 --> 00:34:22,453
[Prosperous Era]
730
00:34:22,453 --> 00:34:23,893
He has more than 200,000 taels?
731
00:34:25,973 --> 00:34:27,533
A complicated 200,000 taels
732
00:34:28,163 --> 00:34:29,723
and a clean 5,000 taels.
733
00:34:30,453 --> 00:34:31,333
In that case,
734
00:34:32,563 --> 00:34:34,013
Magistrate did not even leave himself
735
00:34:34,283 --> 00:34:35,973
a piece of roof tile in Huaixiang.
736
00:34:36,763 --> 00:34:38,643
He only embezzled 5,000 taels.
737
00:34:39,373 --> 00:34:41,643
The money was also exchanged into ingots
738
00:34:41,853 --> 00:34:42,893
and put into crates
739
00:34:43,203 --> 00:34:44,413
in his own residence
740
00:34:44,493 --> 00:34:45,563
waiting for the Ministry of Justice
to seize them.
741
00:34:46,083 --> 00:34:47,453
He is indeed an example
742
00:34:47,813 --> 00:34:49,243
of corrupt officials.
743
00:34:49,723 --> 00:34:50,813
Stop using your eloquent words.
744
00:34:52,203 --> 00:34:53,413
No matter how much
745
00:34:53,493 --> 00:34:55,083
and how he got the money,
746
00:34:55,333 --> 00:34:56,643
he is still corrupt.
747
00:34:56,933 --> 00:35:00,333
Secretary of Judicial Review,
please summon other witnesses.
748
00:35:00,603 --> 00:35:01,493
Summon the witnesses.
749
00:35:07,163 --> 00:35:09,843
[Prosperous Era]
750
00:35:32,603 --> 00:35:33,163
Your Majesty,
751
00:35:33,493 --> 00:35:34,973
we were the guards of Huaixiang
752
00:35:34,973 --> 00:35:35,853
when Magistrate Xue was in charge.
753
00:35:36,163 --> 00:35:38,853
Magistrate Xue stayed in Huaixiang
for ten whole years.
754
00:35:39,493 --> 00:35:40,813
He never acted corrupt.
755
00:35:41,163 --> 00:35:42,163
After he was imprisoned,
756
00:35:42,493 --> 00:35:44,683
all of us who knew the truth
were confined in a mine.
757
00:35:45,933 --> 00:35:46,493
Your Majesty!
758
00:35:46,973 --> 00:35:48,283
We are willing
to guarantee with our lives.
759
00:35:48,533 --> 00:35:51,123
If we tell a lie,
760
00:35:51,643 --> 00:35:52,933
our clans should be annihilated.
761
00:35:53,283 --> 00:35:54,813
We are willing
to guarantee with our lives.
762
00:35:55,163 --> 00:35:56,493
If we tell a lie,
763
00:35:56,723 --> 00:35:58,053
our clans should be annihilated.
764
00:35:58,333 --> 00:35:59,603
We are willing
to guarantee with our lives.
765
00:35:59,893 --> 00:36:00,973
If we tell a lie,
766
00:36:01,243 --> 00:36:02,243
our clans should be annihilated.
767
00:36:02,603 --> 00:36:04,053
We are willing
to guarantee with our lives.
768
00:36:04,203 --> 00:36:05,563
If we tell a lie,
769
00:36:05,973 --> 00:36:07,083
our clans should be annihilated.
770
00:36:07,493 --> 00:36:08,973
[Prosperous Era]
We're willing to guarantee with our lives!
771
00:36:09,083 --> 00:36:10,333
If we tell a lie,
772
00:36:10,493 --> 00:36:11,723
our clans should be annihilated!
773
00:36:21,403 --> 00:36:22,363
No matter what,
774
00:36:22,633 --> 00:36:24,793
it is true that Xue Huaiyuan is corrupt.
775
00:36:25,003 --> 00:36:26,563
As Second Lady Jiang mentioned,
776
00:36:26,843 --> 00:36:30,193
he should be punished
with a thousand slashes.
777
00:36:30,593 --> 00:36:31,083
Hold it.
778
00:36:32,883 --> 00:36:33,633
Jiang Li,
779
00:36:34,563 --> 00:36:35,403
keep talking.
780
00:36:36,313 --> 00:36:38,233
The Huaixiang Magistrate,
Xue Huaiyuan committed a crime.
781
00:36:39,363 --> 00:36:40,713
When he was in charge for ten years,
782
00:36:41,443 --> 00:36:43,363
his crime apart
from embezzling the disaster relief funds,
783
00:36:43,963 --> 00:36:45,113
is that had almost no desires,
784
00:36:45,713 --> 00:36:47,003
calm,
785
00:36:47,673 --> 00:36:49,083
responsible,
786
00:36:49,633 --> 00:36:51,043
and upright.
787
00:36:52,083 --> 00:36:53,753
It's hard
to find a corrupt official like him.
788
00:36:54,003 --> 00:36:55,273
So, when he was on duty,
789
00:36:55,483 --> 00:36:58,083
he would have more plans
and evil actions.
790
00:36:58,843 --> 00:36:59,753
When he was on duty,
791
00:37:00,113 --> 00:37:01,403
where did his money go?
792
00:37:01,883 --> 00:37:05,963
Building dams and footpaths,
and bribing the people.
793
00:37:06,443 --> 00:37:08,673
He is trying to embarrass
794
00:37:08,923 --> 00:37:11,153
the good officials of the capital
who live a lavish life
795
00:37:11,313 --> 00:37:12,923
and own millions of mu of land.
796
00:37:13,193 --> 00:37:15,673
He is shameless and arrogant!
797
00:37:16,043 --> 00:37:19,443
Xue Huaiyuan's crime
must not be forgiven.
798
00:37:21,483 --> 00:37:22,843
I request Your Majesty
799
00:37:23,563 --> 00:37:26,313
to punish Xue Huaiyuan
with a thousand slashes.
800
00:37:30,233 --> 00:37:31,443
In that case,
801
00:37:31,843 --> 00:37:33,443
Xue Huaiyuan did not commit a crime
802
00:37:33,843 --> 00:37:34,793
and even contributed instead.
803
00:37:35,273 --> 00:37:36,713
I request
804
00:37:37,443 --> 00:37:39,793
for the Huaixiang Magistrate,
Xue Huaiyuan to appear in court.
805
00:37:40,483 --> 00:37:42,083
Xue Huaiyuan is a witness as well.
806
00:37:42,593 --> 00:37:44,003
I want Your Majesty
807
00:37:44,523 --> 00:37:46,363
to see
what Magistrate Xue looks like now.
808
00:37:46,963 --> 00:37:47,563
Approved.
809
00:37:47,963 --> 00:37:49,483
Summon Xue Huaiyuan.
810
00:38:09,283 --> 00:38:11,523
[Prosperous Era]
811
00:38:11,523 --> 00:38:12,083
Your Majesty,
812
00:38:12,673 --> 00:38:15,003
this man is Xue Huaiyuan,
the Huaixiang Magistrate.
813
00:38:15,883 --> 00:38:17,713
He was imprisoned by Feng Yutang
814
00:38:17,713 --> 00:38:19,043
and was tortured.
815
00:38:19,633 --> 00:38:20,883
He is now mentally confused
816
00:38:20,883 --> 00:38:21,923
and behaves like a child.
817
00:38:22,713 --> 00:38:24,713
What a pity that an upright official
818
00:38:25,153 --> 00:38:26,713
ended up like this.
819
00:38:27,443 --> 00:38:28,963
If news of this spreads,
820
00:38:29,083 --> 00:38:32,563
how many upright officials
will feel scared?
821
00:38:32,793 --> 00:38:34,153
How many people
822
00:38:34,443 --> 00:38:37,273
will swear loyalty to Your Majesty?
823
00:38:37,273 --> 00:38:38,233
How dare you, Jiang Li?
824
00:38:38,713 --> 00:38:39,963
How dare you doubt His Majesty?
825
00:38:40,233 --> 00:38:41,713
Second Lady Jiang's statement
826
00:38:41,843 --> 00:38:43,483
is similar to mine.
827
00:38:43,673 --> 00:38:46,363
Kind advice is hard on the ears.
828
00:38:47,233 --> 00:38:49,403
Second Lady Jiang's words
might be out of line
829
00:38:49,713 --> 00:38:51,563
but they sound reasonable.
830
00:38:52,043 --> 00:38:53,793
If we abandon the upright officials
831
00:38:54,113 --> 00:38:55,313
and only use the corrupt officials,
832
00:38:55,483 --> 00:38:56,963
the kingdom will be in ruins.
833
00:38:57,363 --> 00:38:58,673
Duke Su is right.
834
00:38:59,003 --> 00:39:00,753
I'm not someone
who can't hear honest words.
835
00:39:01,083 --> 00:39:01,793
Jiang,
836
00:39:02,153 --> 00:39:03,563
you raised your daughter well.
837
00:39:11,963 --> 00:39:13,753
Such an upright official
who loves the people
838
00:39:14,193 --> 00:39:16,083
was falsely accused and sent to prison.
839
00:39:16,153 --> 00:39:17,673
Now, he is in such a pitiful state.
840
00:39:18,753 --> 00:39:19,963
This is my fault
841
00:39:20,673 --> 00:39:22,443
and a loss for the Great Yan!
842
00:39:25,363 --> 00:39:27,593
It is all of our crimes!
843
00:39:31,083 --> 00:39:31,713
Stand.
844
00:39:35,153 --> 00:39:35,963
Wei Qian!
845
00:39:37,313 --> 00:39:38,233
You misjudged a case.
846
00:39:38,233 --> 00:39:39,113
Do you know your crime?
847
00:39:39,403 --> 00:39:41,523
I deserved to die!
848
00:39:41,673 --> 00:39:43,483
I didn't know there was
849
00:39:43,673 --> 00:39:46,523
such a nefarious person
850
00:39:46,563 --> 00:39:47,673
like Feng Yutang.
851
00:39:48,633 --> 00:39:49,273
Zhou Dezhao!
852
00:39:49,673 --> 00:39:51,633
I order you to reinvestigate
Xue Huaiyuan's corruption case.
853
00:39:52,083 --> 00:39:54,193
Those who are involved
in harming Xue Haiyuan
854
00:39:55,273 --> 00:39:56,313
should be punished severely!
855
00:39:56,313 --> 00:39:57,963
Yes.
856
00:40:02,273 --> 00:40:02,883
Jiang Li,
857
00:40:03,673 --> 00:40:04,753
you are brave and wise.
858
00:40:05,083 --> 00:40:06,713
You impressed me again.
859
00:40:07,443 --> 00:40:08,403
Thank you, Your Majesty.
860
00:40:12,403 --> 00:40:13,083
Stand.
861
00:40:15,273 --> 00:40:17,843
Xue Huaiyuan's case has been cleared.
862
00:40:17,963 --> 00:40:19,523
Zhou, you should judge
863
00:40:20,083 --> 00:40:21,483
Second Lady Jiang's case
of escaping with the criminal.
864
00:40:21,753 --> 00:40:22,483
Your Majesty.
865
00:40:24,563 --> 00:40:27,233
My daughter is reckless
866
00:40:27,633 --> 00:40:29,233
but after hearing the truth
867
00:40:29,233 --> 00:40:31,673
about Xue Huaiyuan's case,
868
00:40:31,923 --> 00:40:36,443
I'm reluctant to punish her
for what she did that day.
869
00:40:36,843 --> 00:40:38,363
A good official's death
870
00:40:39,083 --> 00:40:41,193
does not just trouble the official
871
00:40:41,713 --> 00:40:44,233
but every official's morale.
872
00:40:44,713 --> 00:40:47,273
My daughter made a grave mistake
873
00:40:47,593 --> 00:40:51,403
but she saved a good official
whom I couldn't save.
874
00:40:52,403 --> 00:40:54,563
At the hall today,
875
00:40:54,883 --> 00:40:55,483
I...
876
00:40:56,713 --> 00:40:59,043
I feel shameful.
877
00:41:01,633 --> 00:41:02,633
We are shameful!
878
00:41:05,123 --> 00:41:06,283
[Prosperous Era]
879
00:41:06,313 --> 00:41:07,633
We are shameful!
880
00:41:08,273 --> 00:41:10,273
We are shameful!
881
00:41:10,923 --> 00:41:12,403
We are shameful!
882
00:41:13,793 --> 00:41:15,193
We are shameful!
883
00:41:15,523 --> 00:41:17,443
We are shameful!
884
00:41:18,633 --> 00:41:21,113
We are shameful!
885
00:41:22,563 --> 00:41:25,113
We are shameful!
886
00:41:29,563 --> 00:41:31,883
We are shameful!
887
00:41:35,233 --> 00:41:36,003
Zhou Dezhao,
888
00:41:36,443 --> 00:41:37,113
what do you say?
889
00:41:37,233 --> 00:41:37,923
Your Majesty,
890
00:41:38,153 --> 00:41:41,003
Since Xue Huaiyuan
is wronged in his case,
891
00:41:41,633 --> 00:41:44,563
that means he is not a criminal.
892
00:41:44,713 --> 00:41:47,233
So, there is no truth
893
00:41:47,593 --> 00:41:49,313
in Second Lady Jiang
helping a criminal escape.
894
00:41:49,313 --> 00:41:50,363
It is reasonable.
895
00:41:50,753 --> 00:41:51,273
Jiang Li,
896
00:41:51,563 --> 00:41:52,633
I forgive you for your crime.
897
00:41:53,003 --> 00:41:55,523
The Court of Judicial Review will
close your case and you may go home.
898
00:41:55,793 --> 00:41:57,923
Thank you, Your Majesty.
899
00:41:58,443 --> 00:41:59,233
Stand up.
900
00:41:59,593 --> 00:42:01,443
Thank you, Your Majesty.
901
00:42:04,153 --> 00:42:05,793
Does Xu Huaiyuan have
children and family members?
902
00:42:06,153 --> 00:42:07,003
I want to compensate them.
903
00:42:07,113 --> 00:42:09,523
Xue Huaiyuan
has one son and one daughter.
904
00:42:09,793 --> 00:42:10,793
As far as I know,
905
00:42:11,193 --> 00:42:12,153
his son, Xue Zhao,
906
00:42:12,233 --> 00:42:15,003
was killed by bandits in the capital.
907
00:42:15,443 --> 00:42:16,713
His daughter, Xue Fangfei,
908
00:42:19,753 --> 00:42:22,443
is Mr. Shen's late wife.
909
00:42:23,963 --> 00:42:25,963
This is too cruel.
910
00:42:39,403 --> 00:42:42,633
When I found out
my father-in-law was corrupt,
911
00:42:44,563 --> 00:42:45,563
I was shocked.
912
00:42:46,193 --> 00:42:47,113
Now that I've learned
913
00:42:47,483 --> 00:42:49,083
that he was harmed,
914
00:42:49,403 --> 00:42:50,363
it pains me
915
00:42:50,963 --> 00:42:52,003
now that I recall.
916
00:42:56,753 --> 00:42:57,313
Father-in-law.
917
00:42:57,753 --> 00:42:58,403
Father-in-law.
918
00:42:59,483 --> 00:43:00,483
It must be tough for you.
919
00:43:06,043 --> 00:43:06,753
Ye Shijie.
920
00:43:09,673 --> 00:43:10,363
Magistrate Xue,
921
00:43:11,563 --> 00:43:12,153
it's all right.
922
00:43:12,713 --> 00:43:13,273
It's fine now.
923
00:43:14,883 --> 00:43:15,443
Magistrate Xue,
924
00:43:15,883 --> 00:43:16,313
it's all right.
925
00:43:16,843 --> 00:43:17,403
It's fine now.
926
00:43:17,963 --> 00:43:18,923
Mr. Shen, please forgive him.
927
00:43:19,753 --> 00:43:21,233
You've not met Magistrate Xue
for a long time.
928
00:43:21,593 --> 00:43:23,043
I'm afraid
he can't recognise you anymore.
929
00:43:25,673 --> 00:43:26,313
Zhou,
930
00:43:26,753 --> 00:43:27,923
Magistrate Xue is in shock,
931
00:43:28,363 --> 00:43:30,233
can I take him back to rest?
932
00:43:34,483 --> 00:43:35,193
You may leave.
933
00:43:42,083 --> 00:43:43,633
Who wrote this script?
934
00:43:47,273 --> 00:43:48,113
It's really cruel.
935
00:43:48,233 --> 00:43:49,193
What do you mean?
936
00:43:49,523 --> 00:43:50,633
The father is corrupt.
937
00:43:50,963 --> 00:43:52,043
The daughter was in an affair.
938
00:43:52,483 --> 00:43:54,443
The son died in an accident.
939
00:43:54,793 --> 00:43:56,673
The whole family faced a disaster
one after the other.
940
00:43:56,713 --> 00:43:58,313
Isn't this common in storybooks?
941
00:43:58,563 --> 00:43:59,403
What storybook?
942
00:43:59,633 --> 00:44:00,313
Framing
943
00:44:00,753 --> 00:44:01,593
and killing a witness.
944
00:44:04,713 --> 00:44:05,313
Framing?
945
00:44:05,793 --> 00:44:07,443
Was Mr. Shen's late wife framed
946
00:44:07,713 --> 00:44:08,713
for having an affair as well?
947
00:44:09,113 --> 00:44:10,083
That's not necessary.
948
00:44:10,403 --> 00:44:11,883
Duke Su is brave.
949
00:44:12,113 --> 00:44:13,443
He dares say anything.
950
00:44:14,273 --> 00:44:14,843
Duke Su,
951
00:44:14,843 --> 00:44:16,273
I'll leave this to you.
952
00:44:16,843 --> 00:44:18,883
Investigate the truth
behind the Xue family's death
953
00:44:19,193 --> 00:44:20,483
and prove the Xue family's innocence
954
00:44:20,843 --> 00:44:23,313
so Mr. Shen can be relieved.
955
00:44:24,753 --> 00:44:26,043
Yes.
956
00:44:29,713 --> 00:44:30,923
Interesting.
957
00:44:30,933 --> 00:44:34,193
[Prosperous Era]
958
00:44:37,273 --> 00:44:39,233
How interesting.
959
00:44:40,403 --> 00:44:42,483
This is
such an interesting court trial.
960
00:44:43,883 --> 00:44:45,843
Why didn't Your Majesty call me?
961
00:44:46,753 --> 00:44:48,233
An investigation is not child's play.
962
00:44:48,483 --> 00:44:49,363
Why did you come here?
963
00:44:52,083 --> 00:44:54,043
I have something important
to inform you.
964
00:44:57,043 --> 00:44:59,483
Second Lady Jiang has a sharp tongue.
965
00:44:59,963 --> 00:45:01,523
She has successfully overturned
966
00:45:01,523 --> 00:45:02,403
the Xue family case.
967
00:45:02,563 --> 00:45:04,523
What a pity that
while Your Majesty was feeling outraged
968
00:45:04,523 --> 00:45:06,043
by your officials being harmed,
969
00:45:06,443 --> 00:45:07,793
have you thought
970
00:45:08,113 --> 00:45:10,083
that you were also fooled
971
00:45:10,523 --> 00:45:11,753
like a donkey?
972
00:45:12,483 --> 00:45:13,233
Wanning,
973
00:45:14,483 --> 00:45:15,713
don't speak nonsense.
974
00:45:16,153 --> 00:45:17,313
What a coincidence.
975
00:45:17,883 --> 00:45:20,523
I heard Mr. Shen's wife
976
00:45:20,883 --> 00:45:22,673
was Huaixiang's most talented lady
977
00:45:23,273 --> 00:45:26,593
so I got curious
and went to take a look.
978
00:45:26,753 --> 00:45:27,523
Indeed.
979
00:45:28,003 --> 00:45:29,753
Mrs. Shen has a unique face.
980
00:45:30,193 --> 00:45:31,753
It is rare indeed.
981
00:45:32,363 --> 00:45:34,593
So, I was shocked
982
00:45:34,753 --> 00:45:36,313
when I saw Second Lady Jiang
983
00:45:39,563 --> 00:45:41,083
because she looks exactly the same
984
00:45:41,883 --> 00:45:43,593
as Xue Fangfei.
