[Brocade Odyssey]
[Episode 3]
The land of Shu always regards red silk as precious.
Mr. Ji's Shu Red Silk is even more renowned.
Ms. Ji, you dyed a lot of silks.
Why aren't any silks dyed red?
I'll dye any color I want.
Mr. Yang, it's none of your concern.
That's the main gate.
Please.
We have quite a number of guests today.
What is she doing here?
I don't know, either.
Yingying, come and greet Mrs. Zhao now.
Good morrow, Mrs. Zhao.
Although your family is not a noble household,
there's no reason for your daughter
to be running around every day.
It's one thing when she spends all her time outside.
However, she even brings men to the house.
It's a minor matter
if Ms. Ji's reputation is tarnished when this spreads,
but what of your family's honor?
You misunderstood me.
He's here to meet Yaoting for business.
I just happened to chance upon him.
Yes.
It's just a friendly reminder.
Pay no mind to me
if you think it is no trouble.
I fear that should something disgraceful
happen one day,
it will be too late for regrets by then.
You're right, Mrs. Zhao.
Even a misunderstanding
could make those who are clueless tattle.
I'll make sure to discipline her so as to avert
even the smallest mistake.
However, I believe
a sharp person like you
would not misunderstand.
Come, Mrs. Zhao. This way.
It turns out that even you
have moments of meekness and grace.
You have visited my home.
I have kept my end of the bargain.
You can get your drink from another house now.
Mrs. Ji, I will take my leave now.
Ting.
Stop right there!
Mother, I'm wrong.
Mother, stay away!
- Mother! - Ji Yingying!
Get here now.
Ji Yingying.
Mother!
Ji Yingying.
Don't hit me!
Ji Yingying.
Don't...!
Get here now!
- Mother! - Who was that man?
Mother...
That was Mr. Yang.
He's doing business with our family.
Business?
Is that true?
Do you think you can fool me
just because I'm no longer in charge?
His clothing alone made it clear
that he is no ordinary folk.
Why would he do business with us?
He came to inquire about Shu Red Silk.
Shu Red Silk?
Shu Red Silk again?
It has been so many years.
These people won't stop.
[Notice]
[Brocade Bureau] You're here early.
Did Chief Sang truly agree to post the notice
to stop the monopolization of the creek?
It's all thanks to me.
You should
have done it earlier.
Is your father as unreliable
as you too?
My father is a dignified
and respected government officer
of the country.
You think he's unreliable?
What did you mean?
Did you just call me unreliable?
Listen. Show some respect to the honorary president.
Now listen to me.
If you succeed this time,
I'll give you a deep bow
every time
I see you.
Father!
Chief Sang.
Hurry up and put up the notice.
They...
What trouble are you causing?
Go home now!
Chief Sang,
Huanhua Creek is in constant turmoil.
Do you have a solution?
This is no longer
under my control.
Not under your control?
Funnily enough,
I'm only temporarily filling the spot of a brocade officer.
The newly transferred brocade officer has arrived.
It has been over a month.
And yet, he is nowhere to be seen.
Perhaps he
is afraid to come.
All of you know Mr. Shen,
the previous brocade officer who died
two years upon his arrival.
Mr. Zhang, the one before him, fell off a horse and died.
The previous one...
Chief Sang,
we rely on this to make ends meet.
This is important.
Do you know who is in charge
of this matter now?
Yes, Father.
Get to the point...!
Hold your tongue!
Yesterday
was the deadline for the new brocade officer to take office.
We all thought he was not coming.
Who would have thought that the new brocade officer
took office just as the deadline was about to pass?
Naturally, I stepped down.
From henceforth,
I will continue my duties,
while the brocade officer will continue his.
You will have to look
for him for this matter.
Why did he have
to take office
yesterday?
Exactly.
What is the new brocade officer like?
You will know when you meet him.
A new brocade officer?
Let me see who he is!
Let me see who he is!
Take him away!
Open the door! Come out!
Let me see you!
Hold your tongue!
Stop him!
Don't worry, I got this.
Enough...
Chief Sang,
your attitude has changed.
I don't think it's just because of the new officer, right?
This is the army's arrow.
Who have we crossed?
This is more complex than it seems.
Act accordingly, Ms. Ji.
Yingying,
what do we do now?
We followed your words.
We have thought of ways to take orders from others
to prevent Mrs. Hua from driving us into destruction.
If we can't wash our silks
and deliver the goods on time,
we will lose a lot of money.
I, Ji Yingying, a humble servant seeks an audience with the new brocade officer!
It concerns life and death!
I humbly ask for permission!
I, Ji Yingying, a humble servant...
Seek an audience with the new brocade officer!
It concerns life and death!
[Brocade Bureau] We humbly ask for permission!
It concerns life and death!
Mr. Yang,
while I am related to the Wang family by marriage,
our family is not involved in tax evasion.
You can check our accounts.
I'll speak...
The Li family had a spot
at Huanhua Creek
as they persuaded others
with their influence.
Mr. Wang from Jinxiu Court
will fart in front of
the opposite store on the first day of every month!
Mr...
Mr. Zhao Senior did not wash his feet for eight years
to be the Brocade Master!
Seeking for an audience!
It concerns life and death!
The people outside...?
No.
Seeking for an audience!
I have
made up my mind not to see
anyone in the days to come.
Appearing at the most crucial moment
is how you leave a great impression.
Change to a new batch.
Seeking for an audience!
It concerns life and death!
That one
with a beard.
Yes.
It concerns life and death! I humbly ask for permission!
Stop it.
We have shouted for so long.
He won't open the door.
He does not want to see us.
Do not fret.
Since all the orders
are from families with large dyeing business,
they must have places to wash silk.
I'll discuss with them
and see if they can lend their place to us.
Mrs. Hua didn't come.
What do you mean?
Who is against us most
in this matter?
Mrs. Hua.
She has not sent
a single servant to inquire us as of today.
What does that mean?
What does it mean?
Right. What does it mean?
She already knows the outcome of today.
She has probably cut off
all our means of survival.
Is Mrs. Hua that impressive?
She didn't dominate Huanhua Creek for more than a decade
by just being rude and overbearing.
I have never underestimated her.
Yingying!
[Brocade Bureau] Bad news!
Bad news!
Your family is in trouble!
You have served many brocade officers.
I know you're more familiar with the affairs
of a brocade officer than me.
I hope you will continue to guide me.
We will give you our loyalty
and serve you with all our effort.
I don't need your loyalty.
However, if you dare to do what
I have forbidden,
I can assure that
you will disappear before I do.
Understand?
Understand.
I also do not wish anyone to know
about my position as the brocade officer yet.
Yes!
As all of you know,
I'm a timid person,
and I'm afraid of death.
However, many of the brocade officers have died.
I believe all of you, who have served for many years,
know what the previous
brocade officers did.
Please write all of them
in great detail.
I will consider it
a guide, too.
Mr. Yang, there is so much.
How can we write them all?
That's right.
Write up there.
No... I'll write here.
I'll write now.
I'll write.
Give me a paper!
Give me!
We only have one loom!
You can't take it!
You can't!
Stop!
Stop! You can't take it!
Put it down!
Paying debt
is the right thing to do.
Are you not aware of this,
Ms. Ji?
The note states clearly that the debt
is to be settled within ten years.
The time is not up yet.
Why are you seizing
our property?
Settling it within ten years?
That is your deal with the previous debt collector.
Not me.
The debt transfer means the debt
remains unchanged
and the terms can't be modified.
That's right.
The terms can't be modified?
Which law states that?
Go find
any of your previous debt collectors
that will testify on your behalf.
I'll wait for you here.
Perhaps you have swayed those people
since you are so confident.
That's right.
Alright.
Let's not talk about the terms. We'll talk about the debt.
We never said we wouldn't pay,
nor do we lack the ability to pay.
Yet you barged into my home and took my property to settle the debt.
Is that ethical?
We'll talk about the rules, then.
[Territory Occupation at Huanhua Creek] This is a petition record regarding
past disputes at the creek.
These are
the annual accounting books
submitted by several major dyehouses.
They have a large production
with a variety of silk types.
Is there a problem with that?
In the past, Brocade Master Ji Guinan dedicated
many years to perfect the dye of Shu Red Silk.
No one could achieve it.
The craft of Shu brocade
is not mastered overnight.
A few major dyeing households,
such as the Hua family,
have more than ten types of signature silks now.
Although they can't compare to Shu Red Silk,
they are still good enough.
How did her family
end up dominating the industry?
Also,
the Hua family
has always oppressed
smaller families to expand themselves.
The Ji family incurred countless debts
due to Ji Guinan's crimes.
The bond of debt is now in Mrs. Hua's hands.
It can be deduced that
the Ji family is the next family
Mrs. Hua intends to seize.
This may be why
Ms. Ji is so eager to retaliate.
If we help her out
in this matter,
we might get closer to the Ji family.
I do not deem you people capable of paying the debt.
Your dyehouses usually survive
on the leftover orders I give you.
Now I cannot be bothered with such charity.
Even if you take on small orders here and there,
you still have no place to wash the silk.
Setting profits aside, if you cannot
complete the orders on time,
you must pay double as compensation.
If all your money is used for compensation,
you will not have any left to pay the debt.
So, I would rather collect it from you now.
Frankly,
I am asking your family to offset the debt
with your property right now.
If that does not suffice,
you must work for me to offset the debt
in the future.
You...!
Even if you want our property to offset the debt,
you should have informed us beforehand,
and that applies only if we were late.
Fine, then.
We shall see if you manage to pay up
within this month, Ms. Ji.
Before you do,
I can charge interest according to the contract,
can I not?
Can you afford that?
Take their things.
Stop!
Leave it alone!
Put it down!
Put it back!
Hands off!
What are you doing?
Are you making a scene
because you outnumber us?
I am not like your old debtors
whom you can send away without a thought!
I have the right to decide
what to use
to offset the debt.
Gui,
give Mrs. Hua all the raw silk and dye from the dyehouse
to offset the debt.
Ms. Ji,
if we gave them all the silk,
what would we work with?
If we fail to submit...
That loom belongs to my brother. We can't give it to them!
There is nothing they cannot have.
Give it to them.
Yaoting...
I believe that one day,
we will be able to redeem it.
Alright.
I hereby accept
the interest for this month.
When I come knocking next month, I expect you
to have gathered the funds by then, Ms. Ji.
If not,
all of you will be working for me.
Rest assured, Mrs. Hua.
You will not have your way.
Step aside!
Shoo!
Get off!
Go away!
Hey!
Go away!
Take it away!
Mother!
I sent Mother to our aunt's house this morning.
She will be in Ba County for a while.
You said it yourself. If everything is fine, nothing happens.
If something crops up,
send Mother out for a walk.
You are opposing Mrs. Hua, so I know
something will arise for sure.
I already expected her
to come knocking to collect the debt.
I did not expect her to take advantage of the situation
to make us work for her!
We still have things at home,
which should be enough
to offset the debt.
We will not have to work for her.
If we give them any more things,
we will end up with nothing again.
No. That must not happen.
Pin, come with me.
What is our mission here?
Tell me again.
Reproduce the Shu Red Silk,
get to the bottom of the murder,
and reform the brocade industry in Yizhou.
So...
The duck in San Hua Pavilion should be ready now.
Prepare the sedan chair. We are going out the back door.
It is the second watch of the Hai hour.
Shut your doors and windows
in case of burglars.
So? Do I look like someone from the Sang family?
Yes.
You just look a little...
A little what?
A little...
A little fun.
Excellent.
Have you never thought of getting help from Mr. Zhao?
I like him
because he understands and respects me.
He makes me happy,
but that is not because he can help me.
When my father was alive,
everyone was nice to me.
However, when something happened to my family,
only a few of them helped us out.
Hence, I learned that
it is fine to seek and accept help,
but I cannot depend on others' help alone.
Only I will never let myself down.
However, Pin, you are certainly different.
I am sure you will find
a dependable young man you like.
How pleasant it must be to be able to trust
and rely on someone.
Sadly, I probably cannot experience that anymore.
I only trust myself and my own hands.
Come along.
[Brocade Bureau]
Wait for me here.
Alright.
What is it?
Chief Sang forgot something at the bureau.
He has asked me to retrieve it for him.
What is it?
We will deliver it to him.
Since Chief Sang has sent me here in the middle of the night,
the item certainly should not be known to outsiders.
If you don't have a say on this,
perhaps you should
report to the new brocade officer for a decision on this matter.
He is not around.
Is that not even better?
You two will be
the ones doing Chief Sang a favor.
When I get back, I will tell Chief Sang
that it was all thanks to your leniency.
Are you out of your mind?
Please return and tell Chief Sang that
we would love to help,
but the new officer has given orders.
No one is allowed to enter.
Try again tomorrow.
Please!
Chief Sang needs it urgently.
Please make an exception!
Hello?
Hey!
I never expected to get in today, anyway.
I was just testing the waters.
It was not entirely fruitless, either.
Those guards have always been greedy and tend to avoid trouble.
Just now, I tried to get past them in Chief Sang's name,
and I even gave them money,
but it was useless.
In other words, this new brocade officer
either promised them huge rewards
or terrible punishments.
He is not to be trifled with.
Isn't that bad?
He may be a tricky one,
but if he has something he wants, we can negotiate a deal.
However,
will he dare to order those great families around?
With the right price,
we can still strike a deal.
Let us wait at the back door. Come on.
You should change your clothes first.
Alright. I shall get changed.
We will get him this time!
The smoke will drive him out!
Sang Shisi!
- They are on our side. - Jiang Liu?
Ji Yingying,
you gave me a fright!
You are here, too?
What are you doing?
As you have predicted,
the other families refused to let us
wash silk at their place.
I went to your house to inform you,
but you were not home.
When I came out, I bumped into him.
He said he knew a way
to get us to meet the brocade officer.
I sneaked out to help you.
Well? Nice of me, right?
So, this is your idea?
He refused to come out,
so I will smoke him out.
Well? Smart, am I not?
Listen here.
This officer is a tricky one.
Do not do anything rash. We should go.
No matter how tricky he is, what can he do?
Beat me up?
What if he tells your father about it?
If he tells my father, then...
Then...
This really is not the way.
Oh, no!
Run!
Put out the fire!
The fire!
Oh, yes! The fire!
Put it out.
There!
Who's there?
How dare you start a fire outside the Brocade Bureau?
We did not start a fire.
We were putting it out.
Yes, we just happened to pass by.
Just passing by!
Passing by...
Is anyone hurt?
Thank you for your concern, sir.
We are all in one piece.
I am glad to hear that.
You may leave now.
Great.
I told you it works!
Does that mean
you came here for me?
No!
He means to say that
it was fortunate you were on patrol, so you were not affected by the fire.
That's right.
Does that mean
I should be thanking you?
No...
This is our duty.
There is some fire we have not put out yet!
What is going on?
Am I seeing things?
Did that sedan chair
just swallow Yingying?
Mr. Yang?
You are the new brocade officer?
What is the cost of raw silk production this year?
How many dyes are needed to create indigo?
How much is a bolt...?
Why did you stop?
Not all brocade officers know about brocades, right?
They die quickly, after all.
Mr. Yang, you are a noble man.
I am sure you will live a good, long life.
Go on.
Are you not here to flatter me?
Surely you jest, Mr. Yang.
I was being sincere.
After all, you are handsome
and charming.
You are keen, needlessly harsh,
mean,
have pockets lush,
but soon to be crushed.
You did not mean that, did you, Ms. Ji?
You have even started
a fire in front of my bureau.
So, you are not here
just to flatter me, are you?
I am sure you know very well
what I want, Mr. Yang.
What do I get out of this?
You are a brocade officer,
but you hide your real appearance.
You must have your reasons.
However, I am not good with secrets.
Please forgive me
if I let anything slip.
Are you threatening me?
Oh, I would not dare to. Farewell.
Mr. Yang, do you want me
to scream right now?
Go ahead, then.
If something undesirable happens to me,
I cannot do anything
about Huanhua Creek.
You...!
If this drags on,
they will start suspecting.
Those three out there
seem quite fond of burning things.
Take them to the creek
and tell them to burn up that pile of branches.
They are not allowed to leave before then.
I...
I meant the one inside.
I did not drink soup today,
so I would like to make some myself.
Since you love playing with fire,
shall I take you to the kitchen?
You can boil water, add firewood, and make soup for me.
I will cut you in half!
I will split you, you vile officer!
You!
I will chop you up, vile officer!
Who are you cursing?
A vile officer.
I was not cursing you.
Are you a vile officer?
Look at you.
Look what a mess you made
of the Brocade Bureau.
The Shu brocade industry is in a mess, too.
You did not seem to care, though.
Greedy people always flock to places
where money can be earned.
When too many of them gather in one place,
they are bound to make a mess.
This is not something
you can settle overnight.
You are rushing just to add firewood,
so of course, you would make a mess of yourself.
Mr. Yang, do you know you are supposed to keep quiet
if you have never lived someone else's life?
To get out of a sticky situation,
do you add fuel to the fire,
or do you focus on the heart of the matter?
Shu red outshines all reds.
The Shu Red Silk was buried along with my father.
The empress has a garment made of Shu Red Silk,
but it was accidentally ruined.
If Shu red is reproduced
and the silk is made into a garment,
perhaps any injustice will be granted
a chance to be made right.
I do not know what you are talking about, Mr. Yang.
If you are asking about Shu red,
our family can no longer produce Shu Red Silk.
Shu red...
The Shu Red Silk may be missing,
but justice has to prevail.
That sounds familiar.
Do you know what the previous brocade officer
said to me?
What did he say?
I apologize.
What did he say?
He said that
I should only focus on my peaceful life
and that the officers will take care of justice.
You should do your part, too.
If you depend on him alone,
what can he do?
You will have to pick up where he left off, then.
Mr. Yang, will you not help me think of ways
to resolve my current predicament?
Ms. Ji, do you
only care about gains and losses at the moment?
How do you start a fire with that much firewood?
Enough. Stop this.
You may go home now.
Farewell.
Take care, Ms. Ji.
[Ji Guinan, Shu red]
Father,
your name appeared
on the Wall of Colors.
In the future, I want to create a new color
and become a Brocade Master, too.
Then, my name
will be right next to yours, Father.
Great!
This spot.
This spot is reserved for you.
Yes!
We will both be Brocade Masters!
Yingying,
let go!
Father once said that
while brocade comes first, people are above it.
We can remake brocades if we lose them,
but we can do nothing if we lose someone!
Let go, I said!
[Ji Guinan, Shu red]
Father,
now is not the time yet.
Please wait a little longer.
[Brocade Bureau]
[Yizhou Brocade Bureau]
Mr. Yang,
Ms. Ji is here again.
I do not want to see her for now.
Tell her to go home.
She said she will not leave
until you see her.
Also, many people
have gathered around the entrance of the bureau.
She was sobbing and wailing.
If outsiders
spread rumors of this matter,
you may be at a disadvantage.
You said
she was crying?
Yes.
Let her in, then.
After considering the stakes,
I took matters into my own hands
and brought her in.
You brought her in?
Where is she?
She is waiting at the entrance.
Why did you not tell me that sooner?
Come here and help me get dressed!
Where are my shoes?
Mr. Yang.
I shall take my leave now.
Greetings, Mr. Yang.
What brings you here?
I am here to apologize to you, Mr. Yang.
What did you do?
Did you think that crying
would soften my heart?
I do not fall for such tricks!
Huanhua Creek is where the people of Sandaoyan wash their silk.
In the past, the various families would wash their silk accordingly
and keep to themselves.
But now, a great family has taken over the place
and forbidden us from washing silk overnight.
I do not know what to do.
Please be the judge of this matter, Mr. Yang.
Even Chief Sang could not do anything about this.
Do you think I, a mere brocade officer, can resolve this?
Mr. Yang, you have achieved much despite your young age.
I am sure you are a brave man.
Do you mean that
Chief Sang is advanced in years and afraid
to offend those in power?
You said it, not me.
I can only see your courage
and no one else.
That was music to my ears.
We last met only recently,
but your speaking skills have vastly improved, Ms. Ji.
By the way, it has been quite hot these days.
It would be nice if someone could fan me.
Let me do it.
Are you doing it properly? I do not feel the wind.
My head is getting too cold.
My feet are getting cold.
Why did you stop?
Yang Jinglan!
Mr. Yang, please bring me justice.
Are you begging me?
Do you think I would help you
just because you begged me?
That day, by the creek,
you teased me,
but you also subdued the frightened horse.
At the entrance of my house,
thanks to your cooperation,
we managed to send Sang Shisi away.
Mr. Yang, even though you do not like me,
you are a kind man.
I will remain kneeling
and wager that you will have mercy on me.
Why did you not wager from the start?
I pity my bones.
Now, that is rare.
You finally spoke a word of truth.
However,
you have misjudged my character.
I do not have a heart.
I only care about my gains.
Do you know what the previous brocade officer
said to me?
What did he say?
True.
So, other than offering sincerity,
I have a deal to propose.
The previous brocade officer, Mr. Shen, told me that
if the next officer is a good person,
I should tell them the words
he left behind.
Ms. Ji,
would you trade anything at all?
I wanted to plead with our connection,
but you were not swayed.
[Notice: Huanhua Creek is now shared property for washing silk.
No one may claim it as their own. Offenders will be severely punished.]
You already had a plan!
I apologize for misunderstanding you.
Ms. Ji, you should put more trust in the bureau.
No matter my objectives,
I am now an officer.
So, of course, I will do what is expected of me.
[Notice] Huanhua Creek
is now shared property
for washing silk.
No one may claim it as their own.
Offenders will be severely punished!
Great!
Good!
Mr. Yang, you have spoken up for the people.
The people of Yizhou will definitely remember your kindness.
However, you may not know this.
The brocade families of Yizhou are powerful.
Every one of them is quite influential.
You have only recently arrived,
so you may run into problems
that hinder the enforcement of laws.
I worry that your authority may be challenged.
Why did you not tell me before the notice was put up?
I only thought of it just now.
The brocade officer is here!
So, he is the brocade officer?
No wonder.
My name is Yang Jinglan.
I am the newly appointed brocade officer in Yizhou.
What?
Do you not believe me?
I did not expect you
to be the new brocade officer, Mr. Yang.
Mr. Hua, are you on an outing?
Surely you jest, Mr. Yang.
Come here!
Prepare another seat for Mr. Yang.
No need.
I clearly remember
the notice I put up
stating that other than those washing silk,
no one is to remain on the banks of Huanhua Creek.
What is this?
Have I remembered wrongly?
Or do you fancy yourself powerful enough that
you need not heed my orders, Mr. Hua?
Mr. Yang,
that is not the case.
I dare not even dream
of opposing the bureau.
Here.
Take a look.
Am I...
Am I not washing silk now?
This may not be a lot of silk,
but I did not disobey your laws.
You were washing silk, indeed.
But if you ask me,
since you have gathered your men here,
you must be waiting for me, right?
Mr. Yang, you have not been here for long,
so you must not know a lot about matters in Yizhou.
But please rest assured.
Our family is known
for being kind in this.
We can help you learn all about Yizhou as soon as possible.
"He can bark all he wants,
but I shall remain calm.
He can be stubborn all he wants,
but I shall remain unaffected."
Mr. Hua, you may not know this,
but I have been impatient since I was young.
To curb that impatience, my teacher
taught me those words.
He said that if I lose my patience,
I am to recite those words.
Mr. Yang, your teacher must have been quite enlightened.
There must be great wisdom in his words.
I think so, too.
However,
do you know
what the last sentence is?
I am but an ignorant fool.
Please enlighten me, Mr. Yang.
"If he does not stop barking,
I shall send him to hell."
Yes!
Good one!
All hail Mr. Yang!
Get him!
What a show!
Everyone!
This is my first time being an officer,
so I do not know much about the position.
Even so, I know that orders must be followed
and promises must be kept.
From now on,
I will not tolerate anyone
going against the rules I have established.
If anyone disobeys the rules,
we shall see if his arguments
can win against my fists.
Is that clear?
Yes, sir! We'll do as you say, Mr. Yang!
Mr. Yang,
I heard it loud and clear as well.
Can... Can I go up now?
I am freezing.
Mr. Hua, since you like this place so much,
I shall fulfill your wishes.
Stay in the water until nightfall,
not even two hours less.
They are dirtying the waters of Huanhua Creek.
Ms. Ji,
I have kept
my promise to you.
It is your turn now.
Mr. Shen's words are all written here.
Read it as you please, Mr. Yang.
I shall be off now.
Go!
Be a good officer
who speaks up for the people.
