[Miss Chun is a Litigator]

[Episode 8]

Please move gently.

All right.

Be careful.

Ms. Xu has been sent back to her family. Just go away with Tumi.

Okay, Father. Sorry to worry you.

I will take care of the family. No matter what happens, I'll stand by you.

Thank you, Father.

Grandfather.

We'll be back before the Spring Festival, and I'll write to you.

Good girl.

Miss, I'm going to pack up the things.

- Lord Han.
- Lord Han.

You don't have to. I'm here for Tumi.

What is the matter, Lord Han?

We're leaving soon. Don't take too long.

Come and talk in private.

Come with me.

This must be a personal matter, right?

How did you know?

Otherwise, you wouldn't take me to talk here.

What if it's a shocking case that can't be known to your family?

Talking about a shocking case in this corner of our house?

Before it was Xiao Zheng would talk back to me. Now you talk back to me, too.

Lord Kang is a role model for me.

Don't adapt his unlovable parts

or become a pedant talking about rules all the time.

You're here to teach me a lesson.

I'm here to give you a present.

I don't want your gift.

I haven't told you what it is.

I don't need anything.

Don't regret it later.

I won't.

No matter what you send me, my father will need to return the favor.

It is better for ordinary people like us to live an easy life.

I don't need anything.

You said no. Don't regret it later.

Who regrets it, is the fool.

Xiao Zheng.

Someone is following us secretly.

Try to stay a few more days there after arriving in Wei State.

What happened?

- Go, go.
- Hurry up.

My clothes are all wet. I don't have an umbrella with me, either.

Why is it raining so hard?

Lord Kang, are you going out? It's raining heavily.

The weather in Wei State is always unpredictable.

It's your first time going far away. Can you adapt?

Are you going out to work?

No. The local government office needs some time to sort out the files.

I thought the point of a prison inspection was to catch them off guard.

What if someone intentionally tampered with the files?

I'm inspecting prisons on behalf of His Majesty.

If someone disrespects the royal family, he will be beheaded.

But if someone makes wrongful convictions, it will only affect his official position.

Which is more important, compared with their heads?

Do you think they would do such a bad deal?

Once the emperor is angry, millions of corpses lie on the ground.

Is that the premise of the rule of law?

Isn't that the most natural thing?

I've had someone take the gift from Lord Han to your room.

Good.

If you don't feel comfortable, please accept it for my sake.

I hope you can work hard to turn his unrealistic behavior into practical deeds.

I'll tell you the truth.

Lord Han is too egoistic and unruly in his behavior.

I dare not accept his gift.

But you are different. You are a role model for me.

Your manners and words are respectable.

You must have your reasons for asking me to accept it.

I'm starting to understand him.

Miss Chun, you're an interesting person.

It is rare for a would-be litigator to say no to Han Wuwei.

In fact, it is not he who acts unruly, but you.

Are you joking, Lord Kang?

That's not a bad thing.

I'm excited to see what you do next.

This is the latest lawbook that revised by the prime minister himself.

You can't buy it even if you have a lot of money.

She accepted it?

Sure.

She took it for my sake.

All right, I'm going to her.

My Lord, there is a letter from Miss Chun. It's for you.

What does it say in the letter?

Read it yourself.

[I'm a fool. Thank you.]

[A contract written by Chun Tumi to Han Wuwei]

[Go to You State right away.]

Who is it?

Go after him.

Go. He's there.

Where's he? No trace now.

What do we do? We have to report to the prince.

- Something's out there. Go.
- Go.

They say there are fireflies here. Where are they?

Are they all asleep?

Who is it?

Tumi.

- Lord Han.
- What are you doing here?

I went out without telling my father and got lost.

How about you?

I'm… catching a thief.

- You go ahead.
- Yes, My Lord.

Are your feet okay?

Give me your hand.

You're afraid of me?

Aren't beasts in such a wild forest more fearsome than I am?

Cone with me.

Can you walk?

Yes.

Captain Chun, Tumi didn't want you to worry. That's why she didn't tell you before.

She was frightened, so you'd better not be too hard on her.

You have to act more pathetic.

Can Lord Kang really persuade my father?

I'm not being sent back tonight, am I?

Xiao Zheng has a silver tongue.

Your father is a piece of cake.

- My father is not a piece of cake.
- No, no.

Rest assured.

Can you think of a backup plan when you're doing something bad?

I have no experience.

I'll teach you later.

Captain Chun, you can go back with Tumi now.

Thank you, Lord Kang.

Lord Han.

Have a good rest.

I will do.

Be careful.

Have you settled your business?

The man ran away.

That group of people acted cautiously when they were in Bian State.

But now they…

They'll take the bait as long as it's tempting enough.

Once they get the information, we'll be ready to go to You State to catch them.

Now that they've been aware of us,

I think we might as well put the decree thing on hold.

I'm afraid Han Wuwei has already made preparations if we try again.

Even if we get the decree, we may not know whether it is true or not.

Young Master.

I just ran into Chun Tumi.

Miss Chun?

She went out into the woods by herself in the dead of night without even knowing where she was going.

What a weirdo she is.

How can a girl like her go into the woods at night?

I don't think so.

A person who grew up unrestrained naturally has a free mind like hers.

Young Master.

Chun Tumi has a close relationship with Han Wuwei.

The elder warned you to be cautious about her.

I know.

Great. I finally have something to do.

You should get some rest, Miss.

I know.

Father.

Are you looking for Lord Kang?

Go ahead.

- Lord Kang.
- Come in.

Lord Kang.

Here are the files. You can get started.

All right.

You already finished reading them?

Is there anything wrong?

There's one case that I find suspicious.

Tell me about it.

The Zhou case.

It's about a 20-year-old widow, Lady Zhou who has been sentenced.

She used to live with her mother-in-law, Mrs. Wu.

One day, Mrs. Wu suddenly hanged herself.

Lady Zhou turned herself in, saying that it was caused by an argument with Mrs. Wu the night before.

Unfilial piety is a great crime.

The government office soon concluded the case, and she was sentenced to death by beheading.

But I think it should be retried.

Why do you think a retrial is needed when someone's already turned themselves in

and there's been a strong confession?

This file says Lady Zhou and her mother-in-law argued the night before,

but the neighbors said they heard nothing.

The next morning, Lady Zhou found her mother-in-law dead and turned herself in.

The coroner said her mother-in-law had been dead for more than two hours.

That was in the middle of the night.

How could no one hear the quarrel in the dead of night?

Besides, it's clear in this file

that Mrs. Wu kicked down the chair and dropped a shoe when she hanged herself.

How could Lady Zhou not hear it?

She may have heard it, but because she just had a fight with her mother-in-law,

she mistakenly thought Mrs. Wu just broke something and did not go to take a look.

Since she turned herself in, why didn't she tell them everything she heard?

There are three other doubtful points besides that.

Tell me.

First, there were only two of them in her family, so Lady Zhou never went out.

Her mother-in-law took care of the shopping.

Lady Zhou had charge of earning money by sewing and washing to support their family.

They were on good terms with each other.

Then how could they have an intense quarrel which caused Mrs. Wu to hang herself?

Second, Mrs. Wu was optimistic innately.

That would certainly indicate it wasn't an extreme act of paranoia.

Third, Lady Zhou confessed too quickly, insisting that everything was her fault,

which made people think she was eager to hide something.

All in all, this case is very suspicious.

We should check it out.

Lord Kang, the law is not a living thing, but people are alive.

Isn't the law supposed to maintain justice?

This case should not be judged hastily.

If this is the case, you'll be in charge of the retrial then.

If you need a hand to investigate this case, the soldiers are at your service.

Yes, Lord Kang.

[Wu's Grocery Store]

Why is it closed?

Guo'er, go ask other people about it.

Yes.

Come and have a look.

Have a look, Sir.

The news has spread.

I think those people will be there within two days.

I've got my men ready.

Don't be reckless.

Your safety matters most.

Don't worry about it.

Where's Tumi?

Isn't she supposed to be here with you?

She is investigating on a case.

Where did she go?

Thank God.

You're here.

Why are you sitting on the table?

I'm on a case. What about you?

Don't run around these days.

Why? Does it have anything to do with the thief you tried to catch the other day?

Will you believe me if I tell you there's an infamous robber prowling around you?

Robbers don't rob everyone. I have no money. What does a robber want from me?

Do you need my help?

You?

That's not a normal robber.

How can you possibly handle him?

Just go back. Lord Kang is nearly done.

If you delay any longer, you'll miss the time to go back.

I'm going to the autopsy room first.

I'll have you escorted.

This way, please.

She was strangled to death.

Could you please check again for me if there are any other marks besides the rope one?

Well…

All right..

What did Lord Han say?

He said we would stay here another day as planned.

I understand. Thanks.

Yes.

Lord Kang, Miss Chun is back.

Did she say anything?

She wants to reopen the case. She wants you to go down there.

So fast?

Are you all set?

Yes. Lord Kang, please take your seat.

Since you're in charge, you sit here.

I…?

This is where the person sits who serves the people.

Call Lady Zhou to court.

My Lord, Lady Zhou's here.

Greetings, My Lords.

Lady Zhou, who do you take the blame for?

No one. I deserve it.

Do you have a reason?

No, I don't. I am unfilial. I'm begging for a quick death.

Do you ever consider your mother-in-law's killer is still out there?

Her murder is not avenged, and that is the greatest filial impiety.

What… What do you mean by that?

Mrs. Wu did not hang herself. She was killed.

That's impossible.

Why?

Because I'm a light sleeper, but I didn't hear anything that night.

If someone killed her, how could there be no sound?

How did you conclude that this was a murder?

First, Lady Zhou just said she was a light sleeper but didn't hear a sound.

That chair is heavy. How could it not make a noise when it fell down?

Second, the file says Mrs. Wu lost a shoe before she died.

But who does not dress himself properly before death?

How could she drop a shoe for no reason? Unless she kicked it off with some force.

Third, I learned about Mrs. Wu's height and the length of the rope from the file.

I also went to her house to see the height of the beams.

Depending on Mrs. Wu's height, she couldn't hang herself by stepping on a chair.

A table was needed.

Or maybe a tall man lifted her up and hung her up.

Most importantly, I found footprints in Mrs. Wu's room.

Based on the size, they should be left by a man, and they have dirt on them.

That means it rained shortly before this man went in.

It matches the time of Mrs. Wu's death.

Normally, people fight and scream when being attacked by strangers.

But you said you didn't hear anything,

which means the person who killed Mrs. Wu was someone she knew.

Speaking of which, do you find anything strange or guess who it might be?

No.

My mother-in-law was a good woman. No one would want to kill her.

I know you have deep feelings for her and don't want her to be judged.

But the truth is about to come out. Tell us everything you know. That's what's best for her.

I'm guilty. I lied and I'm willing to be punished.

But, My Lord, please clear up my mother-in-law's grievances.

- Just give it to me.
- My mother-in-law had discomfort in her legs.

I took hot water for her feet every night before going to bed.

- You…
- A few days before she died, I went to her room with hot water as usual.

- Give me the money. I'll win tomorrow.
- We'll talk about it some other time. Just go.

But that day, I saw a strange man came out of her room and left through the back door of the yard.

I saw that he was entangled with her,

so I thought she was having an affair.

A few days later, she hanged herself.

I thought she killed herself out of shame.

I turned myself in to save her honor.

Despite your filial piety, you guessed wrong.

Mrs. Wu used to sell your embroidery to a grocery store and then buy some daily necessities there.

The store is run by her brother, Wu Yong.

He is a lazy man. He was a scoundrel in his youth. Furthermore, he can also do some martial arts.

His parents bought him a grocery store, hoping he could stay on track and earn a living.

But in recent years, he's become addicted to gambling and lost his shop.

After that, he frequently went to Mrs. Wu for money.

I think it was for your safety. She didn't allow him to come during the day or let you see each other.

We checked the footprints at the scene, and they match his foot size.

According to the evidence I've collected, he probably wanted to sell her jewelry and property.

When he found out, he couldn't get more money from her, which led to an argument and his killing of her.

After strangling her, he hanged her from a beam to pretend she hanged herself,

thus escaping punishment from the law.

She gave me the deeds of the house.

She must have been afraid that Wu Yong would take all the valuable things.

She was afraid I couldn't live on my own, so she gave it all to me.

But I…

Now, everything is clear. Please decide, My Lord.

You disturbed the court by taking the blame for someone else.

But your filial piety and willingness to sacrifice yourself for the honor of your mother-in-law is meritorious.

The merit and fault balance out.

You are set free.

Get up.

You're a wise woman, but you're too filial.

You risked your life to protect your mother-in-law's honor.

All you need to do now is give us your full cooperation to bring the killer to justice

so that she will feel at peace in heaven.

You almost sprained your foot the other day, and today you're out for a walk again.

How about you? Have you caught the thief?

No.

Then you still have time to stick your nose into my business.

Whether I have time or not, I'm still going to take care of your business.

I heard you corrected a miscarriage of justice and saved Lady Zhou's life today.

Why are you unhappy now?

Even so, I still feel depressed.

Maybe... it's because of Lady Zhou.

What's wrong with her?

She found Wu Yong and Mrs. Wu had contact, and then she thought they had an improper relationship.

To protect Mrs. Wu's reputation, she was willing to take the blame.

I know she did it out of filial piety.

But… is Mrs. Wu's honor really more important than her own life?

Sure. Women value their reputation.

It is more important to them than their lives.

But I'm a woman, too.

I think no matter what happens to you, whether you're a man or a woman, you should just live well.

I'm talking about normal women. You're a weirdo, so of course, you don't think that way.

But… I have a broad heart, so I won't despise you for these strange ideas.

Stop. You can despise me.

You'd better keep away from weirdos in case you get unlucky. Go away.

Watch out for beasts in the dead of night.

[Uphold virtue and condemn evil.]

Mother,

Today, for the first time, I righted a miscarriage of justice on my own.

Although my voice doesn't carry much weight and I cannot change this world,

but able to give Lady Zhou a good ending,

this is also a good start.

[Uphold virtue and condemn evil.]

[Relay Station]

Wu Yong has been arrested and will be sentenced today.

If it were you, how would you sentence him?

If he killed her accidentally, he should be hanged and the whole body can be kept.

But if he did it intentionally, he should be sentenced to beheading.

What about other people?

Although Lady Zhou turned herself in at the beginning, the government office still had the crime of neglect.

They couldn't stop looking for evidence just because someone turned herself in.

In any case, there should be complete evidence.

Otherwise, if someone takes advantage of this point, the fallout may be huge.

Great.

If it weren't for you, we wouldn't know how many cases would be misjudged by such a sloppy magistrate.

Familiarize yourself more with the judicial system and procedures in our country in the future,

That will help you to make a decision.

Yes, My Lord. I really learned something this time.

Coroners, magistrates, and witnesses all have their limitations.

But litigators, no matter what situation they're facing, have to find the key to solving a case by themselves.

They have a great responsibility, so they can't miss a single detail.

That's good.

Keep your energy up. There's a lot you can do for me in the future.

Yes.

Lord Kang, all is set.

We're ready to go. But Lord Han is not here.

That's all right. We'll set out for Ji State as planned. He has his own arrangements.

Yes.

You're quite tough.

My Lord, leave this man to me.

No rush.

If he doesn't say it, I'll use him to lure the man I want.

Jin Yi.

[Young Master, I got a clue that the inkstone should be in You State. I'll go and check it out.]

Young Master, I got a clue that the inkstone should be in You State.

I'll go and check it out.

Miss.

- Hanging…
- It's been an hour.

Your grandfather told you not to read in a carriage.

Look at yourself. You've been reading for so long.

It's time to take a break.

Got it. I'm almost done.

Stop it.

If you keep reading, what am I going to tell your grandfather?

Fine, I'm not going to read it.

We'll be in Ji State soon.

Why don't you look out of the window for the nice scenery?

Miss.

I won't read it.

Let me help you.

It's been a long carriage ride. Let's go in and have a cup of tea.

Prison Inspector.

- What's the matter with this man, Miss?
- Prison Inspector. Please seek justice for me!

- What is he doing there?
- He has a grievance.

Let's have a look.

Look at him. He stopped them on the street.

- What a grievance.
- Yes.

[Indictment]

Please wait, My Lord.

- Please get up.
- Thank you, My Lord.

Who are you? What's your grievance? Who are you suing?

My name is Liu Erlang, My Lord. I'm a garrison soldier.

I want to file a lawsuit against my uncle, Wang Dazhuang.

Erlang. Come in.

- Come in.
- Uncle Dazhuang. It's not right.

Don't I have five head of cattle? How come there are only three now?

I'm sorry, Erlang.

Two of them have died in the past three years, and these are the only three left.

The price of two cows is not low.

A family with one ox is considered rich.

But isn't it normal for two head of cattle to die in such a long time?

You're as stupid as the official in the government office.

I first gave him four young cows and a young bull.

They were alive and well and could not die easily.

Besides, after I argued with him,

I snuck into his cowshed. This is quite surprising.

Guess what?

There are more than ten head of cattle in it.

His family has always been poor and used to need my support.

How could they have money to buy cattle?

So you've reported it to the official?

I've reported it so many times, but I didn't get any response.

I can't just let it go.

Please get justice for me, my lord.

But you don't have hard evidence. It's a tough case.

But everything I said is true.

Please get justice for me, My Lord.

I'll take the case.

You can come to hear the judgment in a few days.

Thank you, My Lord.

Lord Kang.

Lord Kang,

you took this case very quickly today.

I am an inspector appointed by the emperor. No matter how big a case is, I will judge it correctly.

Otherwise, who will maintain justice for the world?

So not only do you have to take the case today, but also you have to do it well.

Tell me what you're going to do.

My plan is a little dirty, and I need your help.

A little dirty?

Just say it.

May I borrow your seal?
