[Miss Chun is a Litigator]

[Episode 12]

[Fair and Honest]

Zhengyuan. Please, be seated here.

Governor Luo, I'm flattered.

You are the Governor of You State. You have the highest rank, so you should take that seat.

Please, Governor Luo, don't make me embarrass myself.

Listen to yourself.

I am not the main judge here.

It's not fit for me to sit there.

Oh right, I almost forgot. I am the main judge.

Thank you for reminding me.

It might be unfit, but I'll have to sit there.

The Chief-in-command of Zhechong Garrison of Bian State

is present at the court of You State, as the jury for a case of You State.

Now that is interesting.

Thank you, Governor Luo.

Rules do matter.

I should be outside.

Tumi, try your best.

Don't let Governor Luo down.

Yes, my lord.

Who are you?

I, Chun Tumi, represent Shan Yi.

I, Tian Li, represent Governor Luo.

Miss Chun, what are you carrying?

That is disrespectful.

- Guards.
- Yes.

Take her bag off.

- Slap her.
- Yes.

Wait.

Look at you.

The court is a solemn place.

Give me your bag.

Governor Luo. The things from You State are not good.

Do you want to get a new one or...

But, I think the torture instruments of You State are all not good in my hands.

Why don't we save ourselves the trouble and finish the case first?

This is the first time I'm hearing a trial outside the door.

If imperial father finds out about this, he would be grateful to Governor Luo

for educating his incapable son.

Right.

You are His Highness, Prince of Xian. You can be seated.

No, thanks. Standing is fine.

I won't bother you.

Lord Han, thank you so much.

If Master saw that...

Don't worry. I won't let anyone wrong her.

Miss Chun, what is your claim?

My Lord, I have two claims.

One is for the vault theft case.

Shan Yi was wrongfully imprisoned, and forced to make a confession.

The other is for the theft of Shan Yi's grandfather's grave.

His body is still missing.

I'm innocent. I didn't do it!

My Lord, under the clear sky, our dynasty is built on justice and ethics, both of which are being challenged.

Please kindly see the truth and clear Shan Yi's name.

Lord Kang. What Litigator Chun said was ridiculous.

The use of torture during interrogation is permissible by law.

As for their stolen grave, it was the work of tomb thieves,

and had nothing to do with the theft in the military governor's house.

How would you know that it didn't happen because of their immoral doings?

How dare a young girl like you come to this court?

But speaking of law, did you know that

writing pleadings for others and stating facts inconsistent with the truth means 50 canings?

If the consequences are serious, the wrongful sentence will be deducted.

I'm well aware.

Thank you, Mr. Tian, for reminding me.

I might not be smart, but I know that as a litigator,

I mustn't wrong anyone, or be wronged by anyone.

Shan Yi, do you want to counterclaim?

Yes.

What Miss Chun said represents my opinion.

What about your confession before?

I shall ask humbly in court to revoke my confession.

For anything else, I stand by Miss Chun's judgments.

All right. I see you're badly injured, so you don't have to kneel.

Guard. Bring a chair here.

Yes, Sir.

Thank you, My Lord.

Litigator Tian, do you agree with Shan Yi's claim?

Of course not.

Revoking a confession in court is a defiance of our law.

My Lord, you should punish Shan Yi.

Mr. Tian, are you sure that his confession was the truth?

How could it not be? It was written on paper.

Everything is about reason.

If it doesn't make any sense, a confession doesn't always speak the truth.

Let's look at Shan Yi's case.

There are three places to look for reason, motive, method, and result.

But none of them makes sense.

There are so many inconsistencies and loopholes.

It's obviously an indiscriminate confession forced by torture.

Lord Kang. The law might stipulate that punishment can be used in court,

but blindly using torture is not the right way to pursue the truth.

All right. Elaborate on what makes no sense.

Firstly, the motive.

Let me ask, why do people steal?

For the money, obviously.

Shan's family is poor. They had to rent out houses to make ends meet.

Mr. Tian, you didn't do your homework.

Shan Yi's grandfather owns a clinic.

When he grew up, he inherited the family business.

They are kind and help others when they can.

They sometimes offer treatment and medicine for free.

They do kind things for others even if it makes them suffer.

How would someone like that be a thief?

Perhaps he wants a big fortune.

Money can change someone.

What if it was hypocrisy or an act for reputation and fame?

Do you have any proof of that?

If not, wouldn't you have wronged two good people?

I, instead, have proof.

My Lord, this is the testimony of Shan Yi's neighbor.

According to them,

Mr. Shan.

- Mr. Shan and his grandfather was kind and obliging.
- You must take this as payment.

They won't even charge someone poor.

Thank you.

Someone that kind is highly unlikely to commit a crime like this.

Although there isn't any known motive, the evidence points at him.

You can never truly know someone.

Litigator Chun, don't forget that

the secret passage found in the Martial Hall of the military governor's house leads to Shan's house.

Your evidence is just words. But this is the only piece of solid evidence.

That's what I was about to explain.

Secondly, the method.

Sure, that secret passage leads to Shan's clinic.

But as mentioned in Shan Yi's confession, the house is rented to some business travelers.

Besides, their house is divided into two yards, with a high wall in between to avoid disturbance.

The timing is very convenient.

They chose to build the wall after the businessmen arrived.

Fine, let's forget about what's on the ground and talk about what's underground.

There must be a lot of soil for digging such a big secret tunnel. Where did all the soil go?

The terrain is complex between Shan's house to The Martial Hall, so digging the passage would need a map.

Where did that map come from?

As far as I understand, the travelers staying in Shan's family sell snacks for a living.

Three of them go out, while seven of them stay at home.

They get up late and come out in the afternoon.

So most of the time, they are at home digging that passage.

But how can they dispose of the excavated earth without getting noticed?

Although there's no curfew in You State, there would be patrols during the night.

There should also be patrolling guards in Luo's manor.

Governor Luo, don't you find that strange?

My Lords, is a confession all we need to convict someone?

We didn't find the lost treasure in Shan Yi's house,

and his grandfather's grave is also empty. How can we convict him?

My Lord, my grandfather has been kind all his life,

having his body exposed to the wilderness,

which we still can't seem to find. What a cruel world!

What a cruel world!

The world might be cruel, but our lord is not. Justice won't be blind.

If Shan Yi didn't refuse to open the coffin, it wouldn't have come to this.

He was reluctant, and the tomb thieves thought there was treasure inside and dug it out.

In conclusion, the fact that his grandfather didn't find peace is totally Shan Yi's fault.

Judging by this, even the citizens think that Shan Yi is guilty,

otherwise, why wouldn't they dig someone else's tomb, but theirs?

Mr. Tian, Governor Luo, what about the result?

They found nothing in his grandfather's grave.

Also, Governor Luo, what you said is not appropriate.

Did you personally hear every citizen's opinion?

- You...
- Chun Tumi, don't be rude.

Since Governor Luo said that, he must have done thorough research. Otherwise, he wouldn't make an assumption.

Yes. You're right, Lord Kang.

The affairs of the Criminal Department must be rigorous.

Otherwise, it would mess up someone's fate and future.

We can't be like Mr. Tian, investigating behind closed doors, making wild speculations without evidence,

and figuring things out by a tap on his head, which would be failing the law and reason.

It's not an honor to get an official position, nor a shame to lose one.

Do not say that an official is useless, as the local development depends on them.

Your food and clothes come from the citizens,

so do not think that you can trick citizens, in fact, you are also one of the citizens.

I ask you to look at the truth.

Treating a human life as if it's not worth a straw is not what an officer should do.

You...

They all know who opened the grave, and it's a tacit truth.

Is there anything we can do about it?

Shan Yi wants to sue Luo Li for digging up the grave and stealing the coffin, but he can't right now.

Litigation is all about leverage.

Making choices of interests.

Letting Luo Li bear the charge of dereliction of duty is the best outcome.

About the excavated earth, Miss Chun, what do you think?

That is the third thing I want to say.

The result.

To dispose of the soil, there needs to be plenty of time

to mix the soil with wood, and to transport it little by little to avoid drawing attention.

Besides, digging the passage and transporting the soil,

the person must be familiar with the terrain of Luo's manor.

On top of that, they need to know the patrol shifts.

Governor Luo, how would an outsider obtain this kind of information?

As the saying goes, a thief on the inside is the hardest to guard against.

If this is a family matter, I shall take care of it on my own.

Shan Yi.

You should come to my house with me, and work on

the theft investigation.

Miss Chun.

You have such a special opinion. You can stay here.

I'm sure Lord Kang will allow it.

Actually, this is one of the hardest times I've had.

If His Majesty finds out, he would praise you

for trying to take the burden off someone who has worked for two dynasties.

Bastard.

He's making a blatant threat in court.

What's that sound?

Everyone out there knows that a female litigator has come to You State

to bring justice to people.

What? Now that you're involved, do you want to back down?

If you wish to keep me here, I shall obey.

But can you please tell me what is inside that vault?

Are the thieves after fame or money?

I need to know the motive to know the origin, and I need the origin to narrow it down.

Anyway, this doesn't concern Shan Yi.

There's no point keeping him. I shall suffice.

That makes sense.

Chun Tumi stays.

I will report the situation to His Majesty.

Chun Tumi, you need to report this case exactly as it is to the capital and let His Majesty be assured.

How is your grandfather in Bian State?

You should bring him here.

When your family is united, you can work with your mind at peace.

Thank you for your consideration, My Lord.

My grandfather is doing well at home.

The Chun family is kind of well-known in the military in Bian State.

If we moved away,

- I'm afraid the neighbors won't forget.
- Forget?

What does it matter?

As a small family, we don't matter.

Bian State won't miss us, and You State won't feel a difference,

but...

Governor Luo reduced the number of soldiers in Bian State by one household.

Is there any particular reason?

The citizens won't be wondering about the Chun's family, but Governor Luo who made the Chun family disappear.

Governor Luo, our inspection trip is only to check on wrongful cases,

so we shouldn't meddle with other businesses.

I hired Chun Tumi to check the case files.

As for solving the theft, it's not her profession.

If I insist on keeping them here?

Shan Yi has nothing to lose, and neither do I, but what about Governor Luo?

Shan Yi is kind with great filial piety,

and I...

I don't want justice to be a meaningless word.

Governor Luo, you must be impatient and mad right now,

thinking that how dare a girl like me stand up against you.

But, if I can't save such a kind person,

what face do I have to talk about law or morality?

It was my mother's wish to punish evil and bring justice to people.

I never truly understood what it meant.

This case has helped me understand that it means to protect good people,

so that more people are willing to do good things.

Shan Yi has filial piety, and he never broke the law.

You won't find your result from him.

So I ask for your mercy.

To be honest, this case had been closed.

But Lord Kang was careful enough to notice something strange and re-opened the investigation.

Now that Shan Yi revoked his confession, we should take action by law.

Thank you, Governor Luo.

I shall humbly ask Governor Luo

to punish those guards who neglect their duties, and find the body of Shan Yi's grandfather.

Fine.

Guards,

arrest all the guards guarding the coffin that night,

and punish them by military law.

Yes, Sir.

The cases of You State, should be handled by us local people.

Lord Kang, I wish you a safe trip.

I won't escort you further.

All right.

I hereby declare that Shan Yi shall be released with all his property returned to him.

Thank you, My Lord.

Thank you, My Lord.

Get up. This is all I can do for you.

Go find his body and give him a proper burial.

I recommend that you leave You State for your safety.

Miss Chun. I thought I would die here.

But I...

- Please accept my bow.
- There's no need for that.

Tumi. You've done it very well this time.

Thanks to Lord Kang and Lord Han.

If you didn't have any evidence, we couldn't have protected you.

Thank you, My Lord.

Where is Lord Han?

Can I see one?

Who are you? What's wrong with you?

- What are you doing?
- What?

Where was I? I forgot.

Fine. I'll start over.

You've outdone yourself.

You haven't healed yet, but you were fighting with Han Wuwei in the market.

With such a severe injury, why didn't you contact the Pavilion?

Take one dose first.

What?

Do you want me to serve you?

I'll go get some water for you.

I've found the young master.

Where is he?

Don't move. I don't have any strength.

Brother Ye. I thought you left.

You were brave to stand up against Luo Li. Weren't you afraid?

I was.

I was afraid I might cause trouble for father and grandfather. But the thought of you assured me.

I was only thinking about what you had said. And I thought everything was worth it.

I promised you.

If you won, I will do something for you.

Tell me.

Can you celebrate Qixi Festival with me?

Sure.

See you then.

Watch where you're going.

Sorry.

You State people are easy to fool.

Thanks.

Miss, may I help you?

Did you have fun?

His Majesty was just starting to hold out hope, and you disappoint him.

His Majesty was going to come here himself.

- My father, he...
- I stopped him.

Do you know the reason why I came first?

The inkstone in You State is fake, too. His Majesty is aware.

He didn't trust you in the beginning, so he gave the mission to someone else.

Aren't you aware how hard I had to bargain to get you this mission?

I won't fail again.

Go back.

Your wound needs to be redressed.

Which quack doctor treated your wound before?

They did a clumsy job.

I still don't know how to dress a wound.

It won't hurt this way.

It might be a lousy patch, but I didn't feel pain at all.

You were never afraid of pain.

The patch needs to be tightly wrapped like I'm doing right now.

This is right.

You are well-versed in pharmacology.

Do you know how this was produced?

I've never studied the antidote of the Pavilion.

Usually, I work hard to find the antidote for some prison.

Now that we have the antidote, what's the point?

I think something's not right.

Your injury worsened.

Did you hurt yourself during your episode earlier?

No.

Go back to the Pavilion for me.

I think this medicine is off.

I had already suppressed the madness,

but I still can't access my strength.

- And...
- And what?

If I don't take the medicine and just endure it,

I can feel some differences after.

What differences? Can you talk faster? I'm on fire here.

I can hear my own heartbeat.

I can feel a warmth inside my body.

I almost had him.

You said that last time. Since you know he's following us for the inkstone, then...

I'm positive that he's here for Tumi.

Think about it. If not, why would he be outside the court then?

Xiao Zheng, don't you find that strange?

What do you want to do? To investigate Chun Tumi? Or use her to lure this person out?

Do you think so little of me?

Every time you face him, you panic. This is why you keep losing to him.

Miss, where did you go?

I was so afraid that the military governor's staff bagged you.

We're new to You State, and you've learned the verb bag.

I learned it from Lord Han.

Lord Kang.

- Lord Kang.
- You don't have to be formal.

Lord Kang, how can we help you?

Have some rest tonight, and start packing tomorrow. We'll get ready to leave.

All right.

You may have made Luo Li your enemy today, but you did that for the government, so don't be afraid.

I'm not afraid. I'm helping people.

I'm worried that...

I'm not afraid.

I'm not, either.

Don't worry. I have plans.

Luo Li is a powerful person. We were lucky to get out of it unharmed.

I'm worried about Shan Yi.

What did you mean by plans?

I will personally write a couplet to praise his filial piety.

As long as he has my writing, Luo Li wouldn't dare to make his move soon.

After Shan Yi has properly buried his grandfather,

I will personally send a message ordering him to practice medicine in Chang'an.

Please accept my gratitude on behalf of Shan Yi, Lord Kang.

Don't mention it.

I'm just...

trying to help people.

[Qixi Festival Needle Threading Contest]

Girls, attention, please.

We are hosting a needle threading contest on Qixi Festival.

The first prize is a brocade handkerchief.

Every participant, win or lose, will receive a gift from us.

Please take your date here for a fun time.

If you're interested, please come inside for a deposit.

- How much for one person?
- 10 wen.

I will pay the deposit.

Xiao'er, show her the way.

This way, please.

Lord Han.

Xiao Zheng, how's your packing going?

I've packed all we need for business in a box.

What's left is to return the case files to the officials for them to check

and sign the papers. And we can be on our way.

You should pack things for business first.

Don't pack your personal stuff yet. We leave the day after tomorrow.

How about you?

I don't need to pack.

I'll ask Han Feng to put everything into the carriage.

What about the hidden guards you put around me?

Don't worry about that. Just follow my lead. I know what I'm doing.

If you don't need anything else, I'll go check up on Tumi.

Wait. I'll head out too.

Where are you going?

There are standards for our expenses during the Inspection.

Luo Li let us stay in his residence.

The original intention was to avoid the inconvenience of a guesthouse,

but now with everything going on,

I should clear the numbers with him.

I'll take care of that. Don't worry.

As the Prison Inspector, you should stay away from money matters.

If anything comes up in the future, you won't face accusations.

But what about you?

I know kungfu, so I can dodge those accusations.

Unlike you,

you would be standing there, trying to reason with them.

I'm leaving.

Lord Han, Governor Luo appreciates your thoughtfulness.

In that case, we shall ask Lord Han to sort out the expenses and make the payment.

Just give me the total number.

Any surplus would be a gift from me.

That won't do.

I have orders from Governor Luo.

You State is rich and generous.

We can never take advantage of Lord Han.

Rich and generous? During my whole trip, the only place I met a thief was here.

Right... The vault of Governor Luo was stolen by God knows who.

I mean, I met a thief in the street, and that thief took my wallet.

I was thinking to myself, if people in You State are suffering,

I shall make a donation, so I didn't make a big deal out of it.

Come here.

What exactly was in that vault of yours?

With such a fuss, there's still no sign of it.

How about this?

Just think like me.

Think of it as a reward for what you took from the people.

You're right. Lord Han.

There are many bills to go through.

Take care of your eyes.

Someone bring a candlestick to Lord Han.

We might be here for a while.

Don't be scared.

It's me.

Freezing needles.

Miss, I've got the quilt you asked for.

Mi... Miss.

You're awake.

Brother Ye.

Careful.

You were poisoned, and I took you here to help you.

I will take you back later.

How much longer are you going to stare at each other?

Isn't that enough?

Turn around.

He...

he can solve the poison of freezing needles.

You're crazy for exposing our secret location to her like that.

Her father is in the military.

Everyone around him is either rich or powerful.

What if she finds out who we are...

She won't.

You've gone through hell to get where you are now.

You don't want to ruin it...

That's my problem,

not hers.

In Bian State, she was good to me.

I don't want to assume the worst of her,

but you need to know, for someone like us, we should keep our distance.

At least, we won't drag her into trouble.

Think about it.

Why did someone poison her?

Why would someone want to kill her?

After we leave You State, I will focus on the mission.

Brother Ye, did I cause any trouble?

You saved my life, so I will repay you three times.

Three times? But I only saved you once.

All you need to know is that I will repay you three times.

How did you know someone was going to kill me?

I was passing by the guesthouse, and I saw someone in black, so I followed him.

Tomorrow is Qixi Festival.

How do you want to spend it?

We should go see the celebration and look at the stars.

I usually spend Qixi Festival with my family.

Wait, did you just take me without telling my father?

He would be so worried.

Thank you for coming to get me.

Otherwise, I would be stuck with bills.

His Majesty said, we should leave You State soon.

Don't meddle too much with these people.

Fine.

Did you clear the Inspection agenda?

Don't leave any room for that person to challenge us later.

Rest assured. There's only one section left.

Thank you.

You Highness, something is wrong.

Hurry.

Don't worry, Brother Ye.

I won't tell anyone about tonight.

I will come to pick you up tomorrow.

See you then.

Be careful.
