[Episode 23]

Pan?

How come you're here?

Senior Clerk Yan, long time no see.

This is a key area for investigation.

How can you let unrelated people enter at will?

You have misunderstood, Great Chief.

This person is the number one detective
among the people.

Mr. Pan Chi.

He has come to assist me

in the investigation.

He is not an unrelated person.

Great Chief Shen.

Sure enough,

the rumors are true.

Pan is Pan Chi.

You can always think of Pan

as that Pan.

I happened to come across this matter.

I am entrusted by the suspect's brother-in-law

to come here for the investigation.

When this suspect was just arrested,

he was clean as a whistle

and had no murder weapon.

I suspect he is very likely
to have been wronged.

It is written in the dossier

the victim's brother was not a martial artist.

The likelihood of the brother
committing the crime is very low.

Based on the situation at the victim's home,

it's highly likely a vendetta killing.

The elder brother had a bad temper.

Because of land disputes,

he often quarreled with neighbors.

He was once involved in a fight

and the matter was taken to the local official.

In business, he often didn't get along
with others

and offended quite a few people.

The murderer might take
this opportunity to kill him

and then frame the victim's brother.

If it's a vendetta,

the murderer and the victim

must have had a deep hatred.

Just killing would be one thing,

but they took the victim's head.

Why is that?

Setting aside the motive for the crime,

can you deduce

what kind of weapon was used?

Governor Mo, there's no need to rush.

Let us examine it carefully.

Let's leave it at that for today.

I'm hungry.

Governor Mo.

I take my leave.

[Mortuary]

Didn't you say to investigate the case first?

How come you're suddenly hungry?

Besides,

we're not in Xiang'an right now. How come you…?

Anyway, I'm hungry right now.

Didn't you say you were going
to make me a medicinal meal?

Where is it?

Make a medicinal meal?

Are you sure you want me to use these hands?

What's wrong?

These are hands
that have just examined a corpse.

A medicinal meal made with these hands,

are you sure you can stomach it?

I can.

Just wait.

That's more like it.

Look at him, not even preparing
a welcome feast today.

I was worried

the stingy Governor Mo

would also give us poor guest rooms to stay.

Jing Lin, mind your words.

Governor Mo is diligent and loves the people.

He is a rare good official
in the eyes of the people.

It's just a welcome feast.

The most important thing is to truly do things

for the people.

I went to see it.

Their kitchen here is not bad.

Mrs. Shen went to stew a medicinal meal
for you as soon as she got back.

Help me hold this.

Kid.

Why is it you?

Your master…

Where is your sister?

As soon as my sister came back,

I pestered her to teach me skills.

She readily agreed.

But then she led me to the kitchen

and taught me how to cook a medicinal meal.

Then she left in a hurry

to meet with her close friend,

leaving me to watch the pot for four hours.

Close friend?

The young man from Yingzhou
is tired of the wilds.

Fur-clad, he hunts below the city.

The code is correct.

But why is it a male voice?

No, this voice sounds very familiar.

How is it you?

The young man from Yingzhou
is tired of the wilds.

Fur-clad, he hunts below the city.

A thousand cups of barbarian wine
do not intoxicate.

Hu children can ride horses at the age of ten.

I am Chi.

Pleased to meet you, Liuniang.

Chi?

Chi.

You are a gentleman.

Why did you lie to me saying you were

a young lady from Jiangnan?

Actually, I did not intend to deceive you.

It's just that when you replied
for the first time,

you called me a young lady.

I…

Who let you use

a woman's floral letter paper

which was fragrant

and contained flower petals?

Sir,

you said you would write lyrics
for my new tune.

It has been over a month.

When will you write them for me?

I'll write them.

[Chi]

Help me send this letter
to the Ministry of Justice.

Thank you very much.

Director Wu,

these are letter

received after we advertised
for clues to difficult cases.

I have organized them according to region.

This one on top is…

Throw them away.

Do you not understand my words?

Throw them away.

If you really have nothing to do,

go scrub the floor.

My observations on the Ministry of Justice's
doubtful cases.

I thought you were a young lady
from a Jiangnan family

who likes to investigate
and analyze cases, just like me.

That's why there was a first reply.

Chi

is actually a name I came up with casually.

The flower

was lent to me by someone else.

I called you by the wrong gender.

Why didn't you correct me

in your later replies?

Actually, this is what I was thinking.

Since we are pen pals,

whether I am a young gentleman

or a young lady,

it doesn't affect our friendship
through writing,

talking about everything under the sun,

and exchanging case details. Right?

That's true.

Now that you mention it,

it does feel more carefree.

By the way,

I don't know what you like.

So I specially looked for a copy

of the rare book Records
of the Western Regions' Unique Skills.

In this book,

it records the Western Regions'

exclusive tools and techniques.

Take a look, see if you like it.

Thank you, I like it very much.

Wait a minute.

It's this page.

Take a close look

at the scimitar on this page.

After you left today,

I took another look

at the headless corpse's wound.

From the angle of the wound

and the smoothness of it,

it must not have been caused
by a straight blade

but by a curved one.

So according to my judgment,

this murder weapon

should be a specially made sharp scimitar.

I've seen such scimitars

at the border of Xichen.

The scimitar depicted on this page

has only minor differences at the blade edge

compared to the one found at the victim's neck.

The structure is nearly identical.

So whether it is this particular one

needs further investigation.

The Western Regions scimitar?

No wonder I pondered hard today

and couldn't figure out what weapon was used.

Turns out it was a weapon
I had never seen before.

I really should read this book carefully

and get to know more Western Regions weapons.

Perhaps I could find clues within it.

This time I came to Gannandao.

Besides investigating the case,

there's something even more important.

Great Chief, Governor Mo is weary today.

He has retired early
and is not available for meeting.

You should return early to rest.

Please convey my message to Governor Mo.

I shall visit another day
for a lengthy conversation.

Understood.

Great Chief, please.

Like a dream, like a fairy,
suddenly all is scattered.

Where has the sunset glow gone,
leaving the green screen void.

Thus, long before the incident
at Xiang'an City,

in the hands of the human traffickers
at Gannandao,

there was already the Moth Jade.

That's right.

The Huo'e Sect in Gannandao

has penetrated far and deep,

far beyond our imagination.

I've been investigating covertly
all along the way

and found quite a number of the local populace

secretly adhering to the Huo'e Sect.

From Xiang'an to Yingzhou.

I always feel that

behind the Huo'e Sect,

there is an invisible pair of hands

weaving a grand scheme.

The person behind this scheme

must be someone with overwhelming power.

Before we knew it, we had talked for so long.

It's late at night, I should head back.

Let's talk more next time.

Where's my gift?

You didn't forget to prepare one, did you?

I did prepare one.

But

it might not suit you.

You surely wouldn't like it.

Next time, I'll buy you a newer one.

You didn't even let me take a look.

How would you know if I like it or not?

It's you who insisted on seeing it.

Alright, you've seen it.

Give up on it.

Who ever heard of taking back a gift

that's given?

Besides, I like it very much.

I just happen to need a hairpin.

Well,

please put it on for me with your own hands.

How does it look?

Is it pretty?

Why did the candle suddenly go out?

Could it be…?

Pretty good-looking indeed.

It's getting late. I really should go.

I'll take my leave then.

It's so late.

Are you planning to stay up for me?

What are you dawdling for?

Come over and rest now.

Forget it.

We've slept in the same bed before.

If I catch a cold,

that's truly asking for trouble.

Does that Pan Chi

really suit your taste?

What do you mean suit my taste?

Are you talking about solving cases?

I do have a good rapport with him.

You…

What are you doing?

If you keep this up,

I won't be polite anymore.

Not polite?

I'd like to see

how you'll be impolite.

Shen Du,

you're not sleeping in the middle of the night.

What madness is this?

Someone is beating the drum
to appeal for justice.

Who is beating the drum below the hall?

What is the grievance?

My Lord,

I am named Du Fusheng.

I am a medicinal herb trader.

Today is the day my daughter Du Xiaowan

is to wed the son of Li Hongfa,

Li Zimo.

But unexpectedly, a strange event occurred.

My daughter was still there
when she was being welcomed in.

But when the wedding banquet ended
and it was time for the bridal chamber rites,

we discovered that my daughter had disappeared.

The incident happened suddenly

and she was nowhere to be found
despite a search.

That's why we came to report to the officials.

On the wedding day, there were many guests.

This won't be easy to investigate.

Do you have a guest list?

Yes.

Here it is.

Present it.

Is the marriage between your two families

out of mutual affection?

Of course.

Xiaowan and I are well-matched in social status
and have mutual affection.

But who would have known
such a thing would happen?

I implore you, Governor Mo,

you must find Xiaowan.

Guards!

Take men to inspect both households,

especially the Li family.

Conduct a careful investigation.

See if there are any traces left behind.

Take a closer look

at the entries and exits
of the gates everywhere.

Yes.

Governor Mo, the guest list has been verified.

Most of the people are still there.

Only a few are not present.

Find them.

Bring them all back after finding them.

Yes.

- What's the matter?
- My Lord,

if we all go out to look for people,

I'm afraid there won't be enough people here
to investigate the case.

Governor Mo,

if there are not enough hands,

my guards can help.

Then I will trouble you, Great Chief Shen.

Jing Lin.

Yes.

Go on.

Yes.

You guys, follow me.

You guys, follow me as well.

Li Hongfa's family is wealthy.

The bridal chamber
must have been meticulously arranged.

There are no signs of a struggle
inside the room.

It seems something had happened
in the bridal chamber.

In a fit of anger,

someone clawed at this place.

It was meant to be a wedding,

yet there's something odd everywhere here.

Moreover,

this door frame has clearly been refurbished,

but there are traces of peeling paint.

There must be a problem with this.

I think so too.

By the way, have you found anything over there?

I passed through the living room

and also passed by the corner pavilion
and rockery.

But along this way,

nothing was found.

That's right.

The bride did not leave of her own accord

but was kidnapped by someone familiar

and taken away through the back window.

Given the urgency of the case at hand,

you two still have the mood to chat here.

Senior Clerk Yan and I were analyzing the case.

What counts as idle chat?

Moreover,

we have already reached a conclusion.

The bride

was kidnapped through this back window.

Alright.

Now it's time for certain people to get busy.

Hurry and order a search for the bride.

Very well.

Mr. Pan, please lead the way.

Together with my imperial guards,

apprehend the suspect.

Why did you leave halfway through?

A servant from my home came to report

that the child was sick.

My spouse

doesn't know how to take care of the child.

By that time, it was already so late.

Could it last until dawn?

My Lord,

about this matter,

please don't tell my wife.

I came to check on my concubine.

At the wedding,

did anything strange

happen?

No.

Except for that

Xu Jize performed exceptionally well,

I didn't notice anything

else different.

As for Xu Jize,

it was really hard on him.

The profession of a wedding conductor

is not an easy one to begin with.

Few people are in this line of work
in Yingzhou.

But I heard

that he had no one to recommend him

and no access to recruitment examinations.

That's why he became a wedding conductor.

Please, everyone.

Where is Xu Yize?

Why isn't he here?

My Lord, we did not find him.

Not found?

It seems that way,

Xu Jize was the only one who left early

and someone who could be
in close contact with the bride.

Senior Clerk Yan,

do you think

the murderer is Xu Jize?

I cannot answer that question at the moment.

Before the case is solved,

every person present

is under suspicion.

His absence from the scene now

only indicates

that his suspicion is deepened.

Ultimately, physical and testimonial evidence
are required.

Indeed, you are the wife of Great Chief Shen.

Although young,

you speak and act without fault.

You have your own set of rules.

Your words

show deep understanding of the Great Chief.

Take them all back to the Governor's Mansion.

Yes.

Let's go.

[Xu Jize]

Please don't kill me.

Don't kill me.

Who are you?

Why are you panicking and running away
in the middle of the night?

My name is Xu Jize.

Don't kill me, please.

Over there.

Someone has died over there.

Xu Jize?

You're the wedding conductor?

Hand the person over to Governor Mo.

Well done, Shen Du.

Throwing a commoner out to block the road.

Is this the style of the Imperial Guards?

The style of the Imperial Guards

is that of a killing machine

or perhaps a plague god who silences
crying babies at night.

Which do you want,

Mr. Pan?

You are wise to be self-aware.

I truly admire this.

But since we've come this far
in our discussion,

let's just lay it all out.

You've been targeting me everywhere,

finding fault with me at every turn.

If that's the case,

why do you insist on dragging me along
to chase the killer?

You're also self-aware.

Knowing that you're a thorn in my side,

why do you keep showing up?

That's a requirement for solving the case.
I had no other choice.

A requirement for solving the case?

Pushing your luck when seeing I'm present.

Is it also out of necessity?

Save me, please.

Why has it gone quiet?

You, go down and have a look.

Why should I go down?

You, the Great Chief, are here.

Who knows what's happening below?

Besides, if I were to go down,

what if someone else kills me?

If you were to die,

I would collect your corpse

and build a grave for you.

I won't let your soul

wander about

so as not to scare others.

Why is your tongue so venomous?

Can't outtalk me, huh? Go down.

I'll go take a look at the situation first.

You are…

Don't be afraid. I'll rescue you
and bring you up.

Great Chief.

You're the bride from today?

Yes.

I am Du Xiaowan.

My Lord, save me.

There's another person below.

Another one.

You still have some conscience.

I climbed up by myself.

My waist.

To think you're the Great Chief.

Do you really understand
the rules of the jianghu?

Framing me time and time again.

It's not you.

Another one.

A dead person.

You guys go and scout around.

Jing Lin, go check below.

See if there are any abnormalities.

Yes.

Great Chief,

there are no abnormalities below.

Great Chief, the surroundings
have all been checked.

There are no abnormalities.

Along the way,

we all saw

that suspicious wedding conductor

with a tense expression.

Why do you need to inspect repeatedly?

Are you so certain

that person is not the murderer?

I cannot be sure whether that person
is the murderer or not.

But my intuition tells me

this matter

is not as simple as we have seen.

I have truly broadened my horizons.

The prestigious Great Chief solves cases

by relying
on an extraordinary intuitive talent.

Great Chief, will you continue
the investigation?

Let's withdraw.

Where is she, you beast?

Return my daughter!

Where have you hidden her?

- Where is Xiaowan? Speak up!
- Beast!

You may not act recklessly in the court hall.

Xu Jize,

let me ask you,

regarding the case of Miss Du's disappearance,

is it related to you?

It's a false accusation, My Lord.

The matter of Miss Du being abducted

has nothing to do with me.

I just wanted to go and rescue.

Do you have any witnesses or physical evidence

to prove it?

My Lord,

the incident happened suddenly,

and I was in a hurry to rescue.

No one saw all this.

But every word I say is true.

I ask for your clear judgment, my Lord.

So there are no witnesses or physical evidence.

Madam, the Great Chief has returned.

You've finally returned.

Have you made any discoveries?

The bride has been found

and a body has been brought back.

A dead person?

How about you? Are you injured?

Am I someone

who can be easily injured?

Honey, there's no need for concern.

What's happened to you?

Why are your hands all injured?

And there's mud on your body.

That's a question for your smart husband.

I've done all the dirty, tiring work
myself on the way.

In the end, he reaps all the credit.

Regardless of anything,

it's a good thing

that you've returned safely.

By the way, how did you

bring the bride back?

Quick, tell me the details.

First, on the way,

we encountered the panicking suspect fleeing.

Then we found the bride
trapped in the cellar well.

Besides the bride,

there was also a corpse in the cellar well.

So we brought them both back together.

The suspect you mentioned

is Xu Jize brought back

by the imperial guards?

Exactly, the wedding conductor.

After you left,

I questioned the guests
who attended the banquet

and conducted an investigation.

This Xu Jize they spoke of

is considered a very good person.

On the surface,

he has no motive to commit the crime.

Whether he is the murderer or not

remains to be further investigated.

By the way,

when we were at the bottom of the well,

I remember there was a sack.

That sack

was probably used to kidnap the bride.

Such an important piece of evidence.

Why didn't you mention it earlier?

I'm not your subordinate.

Why should I report everything to you?

Alright.

You two go change your clothes now.

I'll be waiting for you in the hall.

This is a matter
for the Yingzhou government office.

It should be decided by Governor Mo himself.

I shall not go to the hall.

You captured me without any evidence.

I've been wronged.

I risked my life

- What stage of the trial are we at?
- to save Miss Du.

Just missed a few things.

I'm also completely clueless now.

And she wasn't hurt, just sprained her ankle.

My Lord,

isn't it time to treat me

with a different attitude?

This person really knows
how to sing their own praises.

Before the evidence is presented,

he made himself seem absolutely innocent.

He even seeks courteous treatment in court.

It's really my first time seeing

such an arrogant person.

A tree without bark

will surely die.

A person without shame

is invincible in the world.

You won't cry until you see the coffin.

Governor Mo,

I have new evidence to present.

Xu Jize,

does this object

look familiar to you?

This item has nothing to do with me.

It must belong to the murderer.

It was all the deceased's fault,
harming Miss Du.

I came to rescue her.

Don't wrongly accuse the innocent.

Then tell us in detail what you saw.

I, I was just using the latrine at that time.

When I came out,

I saw the criminal

kidnapping Miss Du.

It happened so suddenly at the time.

I didn't have time to notify others

and I was worried about Miss Du's safety.

So I went to rescue her alone.

You have no evidence.

How can people believe you?

Heaven and earth know,
every word I say is true.

Please discern carefully.

Let me say it for you.

You and the deceased were accomplices.

You kidnapped Miss Du together.

Then, due to disagreements,

you killed your fellow accomplice.

In order to cover up the facts,

you pretend to be a good person

and distanced yourself from all responsibilities,
making yourself seem completely uninvolved.

My Lord, I've been wronged.

I really did not kill anyone.

I didn't know the deceased at all.

Why would I kill him?

When a person is lying,

they blink continuously

and often wrinkle their nose.

Yet when he just claimed
that he did not kill anyone,

his expression was exceptionally firm,

indicating that he wasn't lying.

Now that you didn't know the deceased,

how did you witness him being killed?

I didn't witness him being killed

with my own eyes.

When I got there,

the person was already dead.

According to what you said,

you saw someone abducting Miss Du.

Did that person have any distinctive features?

The lighting wasn't very bright at that time.

I didn't see clearly.

Well,

judging by the deceased's height

and demeanor,

he should be the one who abducted Miss Du.

Merely judging from the height and demeanor.

Haven't you noticed

any other distinctive features?

The incident happened suddenly.

I didn't pay much attention to anything else.

My Lord, Du Xiaowan is here.

Wan, my Wan.

It's okay now, my child.

Alright.

Du Xiaowan,

you are the party concerned.

Narrate the events that happened today

one by one.

Xiaowan,

we have paid our respects to heaven and earth.

You are now my wife.

I, Li Zimo, hereby swear to heaven,

I will absolutely not hold any grudges

because of today's events.

Miss Du,

I know that women value their reputation,

making it difficult for you to speak up.

But have you considered it?

If the murderer is not brought to justice,

there will be more young women

who cannot escape the evil clutches?

They may not have

the chance of being rescued like you.

Honey,

let's jointly assist the governor

to catch the culprit.

Okay?

After performing the heaven and earth ritual,

I met the wedding conductor
in the bridal chamber.

But then

I suddenly fainted for some reason.

When I came to,

I was already in a sack.

I didn't see who kidnapped me.

I was extremely scared at that time

and I couldn't shout for help.

I only knew I was trapped in a sack

and was carried on the shoulder
of someone running.

After a very long time,

I was finally put down.

Later, another person came.

Did you hear what they were saying?

I originally thought that person

was there to rescue me.

But to my surprise,

the two of them turned out to be accomplices.

They were discussing

how to share me.

Their language was unbearable to hear.

I really cannot repeat it.

Honorable officials,

my wife has suffered such an insult.

I plead with you

to severely punish the culprit.

Rest assured, Mr. Li.

We will definitely not let the culprit

escape the law.

Later, I don't know what happened.

The two of them started arguing.

I made a mistake. Let her go.

What are you joking about?

What's done is done. You have to do it
even if you don't want to.

I'll go over there to check.

After a while,

it sounded like someone
was chasing from behind.

They then abandoned me

in a cellar well in the ruins.

Before even covering the cellar well properly,

I heard a scream

followed by a bang

as if someone had fallen beside me.

The sack loosened.

I climbed out.

Help!

I heard someone coming,

but I feared it was the accomplice
who had escaped earlier.

So I stopped crying.

Later, someone jumped down
from the well opening

and rescued me.

Since you've heard the two people talking,

could you determine by their voices

whether that person

was Xu Jize?

The situation was critical.
I was extremely scared.

I was so scared my head was buzzing.

I couldn't make out whose voice it was.

Miss Du has made it very clear.

In the last moment before she fainted,

the one she saw was Xu Jize.

Regardless of whether you are
the murderer or not,

you certainly cannot absolve yourself
of involvement in this case.

I…

Xu Jize, you scoundrel!

Scoundrel!

Beast!

- Order!
- Beast!

You must not be reckless
in the hall of justice.

Madam, the Great Chief
could not come in person.

He sent me to present the evidence
of this case before the court.

There's evidence?

There's a backup plan?

Why didn't you report it earlier?

I am not your subordinate.

Why should I report everything to you?

True to being his subordinate.

Really petty.

Xu Jize,

at this point,

what more do you have to say?

My Lord, I'm truly wronged.

On the wedding day,

the bride often goes without food
the whole day.

It's common for them to faint from exhaustion.

As soon as I saw the bride was weak,

to avoid suspicion,
I immediately left the room.

Then the criminal kidnapped the bride.

Only then did I chase after him.

Still making excuses.

What happened after you chased after him?

What did you see? Tell us.

I don't know how far I chased.

Then I saw

a shadow wielding a knife.

The person who kidnapped Miss Du

collapsed right beside him.

I am a mere scholar

without much strength.

I dared not to confront him directly.

So I turned around and ran

until I met all of you esteemed ones.

That's how I managed to save my own life.

My Lord,

what is this for?

Men and women should not touch each other.

The embroidery on your clothes

is really exquisite.

I wonder which young lady

embroidered this peach blossom pattern

at the neckline for you.

♫ With deep affection, you are the one for me ♫

♫ I share the autumn moon
and spring breeze only with you ♫

♫ Your palm lines ♫

♫ Your gaze ♫

♫ Our love is deepening ♫

♫ With deep affection, you are the one for me ♫

♫ I share the autumn moon
and spring breeze only with you ♫

♫ Your palm lines ♫

♫ Your gaze ♫

♫ Our love is deepening ♫

♫ You are the one for me ♫
