[Kill My Sins] [This is a work of fiction]
[Longmen]
- Bravo! - Bravo!
[Longmen]
[Episode 8]
[Rise in Social Ranks While Darkness Lurks Within]
Hurry.
[Ministry of Revenue]
What happened inside?
The accounting office...
The accounting office is on fire.
Hurry.
Put out the fire!
Last year,
the flood in Yangzhou
was followed by a drought in Gannan.
The court's disaster relief funds proved insufficient.
They say the treasury
is in deficit due to prolonged wars
under the previous dynasty.
To avoid raising land taxes,
I had the military fund
drawn
from the salt tax this year.
[Li Muyuan, Vice Minister] Now,
[of the Department of State Affairs] just as the accounts are to be audited,
the accounting office
of the Ministry of Revenue
has caught fire.
Your Majesty,
Du Liang
occupied his position without making any contributions.
He had the audacity
to embezzle the military fund.
Now that he's just passed away,
the accounting office has caught fire.
Who knows
how many dirty secrets
are hidden behind this?
Please, Your Majesty, investigate this matter thoroughly.
Year after year,
the places most prone to fire
are the storerooms
and the accounting offices.
This
calls for a detailed investigation of the Ministry of Revenue.
I want to see
who has been acting so irresponsibly
behind the scenes.
Will they eventually set fire
to my palace as well?
We now need
a new Minister of Revenue.
Fan Cheng.
Your Majesty.
Have Xian'er prepare a decree later
to remove Zhang Xianlang from his post
and launch a formal investigation.
Yes, Your Majesty.
If so,
the position of Minister of Revenue will be vacant,
has Your Majesty called upon us
to discuss
potential candidates for the role?
Minister Hai.
Your Majesty.
As the Minister of Personnel,
do you have anyone in mind
for the position?
Xue Zhongshan,
Governor of Jiangzhou,
is renowned for his incorruptibility
and has led the region
to rank first in tax collection for three consecutive years.
So I recommend him
for the position of Minister of Revenue.
Mr. Li,
what's your opinion?
Xue Zhongshan mentioned by Mr. Hai
does have some abilities,
but calling him incorruptible
might be an exaggeration.
As far as I know,
he already has five concubines.
Despite leading in tax revenue,
the number of refugees in Jiangzhou
has actually increased compared to last year.
Mr. Li,
refugees
are present everywhere.
Xue Zhongshan's abilities make him
a worthy candidate for the role.
Focusing solely on abilities and ignoring integrity
shouldn't be the way
you go about things,
should it?
As the Minister of Revenue
holds sway over the nation's finances and resources,
they must possess both moral integrity and capability.
I will not allow
any corrupt officials
like Du Liang
to stir up trouble again.
Minister Hai, you say
that refugees are present everywhere.
Let me tell you this.
There are no refugees in Youzhou.
The Governor of Youzhou
is known by the locals
as Ji, the upright official.
He is a man
of unwavering integrity,
I
shall summon him to the capital
to take on the position
of Minister of Revenue.
Also, no one is perfect.
Xue Zhongshan's accomplishments
cannot go unrewarded,
so he will be appointed
as Vice Minister of Revenue.
- Your Majesty is wise. - Your Majesty is wise.
Have you figured out
who ordered Cheng Hui to kill Du Liang
and frame you?
Could it have been the Li family?
After all, they would be the ones most worried
if Du Liang exposed their connections.
Maybe
it's Hai Yiping, the one who helped with our plan.
Him?
Why would it be him?
If Cheng Hui is really a pawn of the Li family,
it makes sense he'd want to eliminate Du Liang.
But my identity hasn't been exposed,
so why would they
want me dead?
As for Hai Yiping,
I once saw a painting
drawn by his sister,
in which the woman in the painting has...
Has what?
The same Seven-Petal Epiphyllum mark
as Cailian.
Yet, Hai Yan has remained reclusive
all these years.
It's unlikely she has ever seen
the victims from back then.
So who is the woman in her painting?
That's why this remains a suspicion for now.
After all, the censor case involves many parties.
We must ensure that no wrongdoer escapes,
yet we must also not falsely accuse the innocent.
Regardless,
the cruel person
who branded those women
is close by.
Should we
tell Cailian about this?
Cailian tends to act on impulse.
We should hold off on telling her
until we know for sure
who the real perpetrator is,
or she might act recklessly.
I asked you before
about your trembling hands.
You told me it was just a lack of sleep
and that more rest would fix it.
But I don't think it has gotten any better.
I remember you saying
that a troubled heart
can lead to
physical ailments over time.
Are you suffering from that too?
Come on.
I'm a psychiatrist.
Don't you believe me?
You have
this habit of going down unconventional paths.
Sometimes,
I feel like
you're torturing yourself.
You might think that,
but the truth is,
I enjoy living this way.
I love the thrill of adventure.
If my enemies
fear me
just by thinking of me,
that's what makes it interesting,
don't you think?
I'm only
sharing this with you.
You don't think
I'm crazy, do you?
Oh, you.
Since
Du Liang is dead
and there's been years of political instability,
we can't trace
the officials
he was in contact with.
If we can't find any leads from the person,
we look at the objects they leave behind.
What objects?
After a major case is closed,
the files are stored in the archives.
Perhaps we can find
some overlooked details inside.
We didn't have the chance before,
but now we do.
Yuan Shaocheng has been promoted
to Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.
He now has the authority to access the case files.
When did you start plotting
to get your hands on the files?
I've had this on my mind
all along, you know.
But Yuan Shaocheng
is a man driven by self-interest.
Do you think he would agree to something that offers
no benefits and is full of risks?
[Court of Judicial Review]
You all know
I'm from Mang Gutter,
and everyone calls me a rat.
But I've never been ashamed of it.
Rats are resilient.
It's hard to kill them
or wipe them out.
And because of that,
I stand before you today.
I remember that when I first joined the Court of Judicial Review,
many of you
looked down on me,
and even raised your fists at me.
Right,
Erhu?
But now,
we stand together
as brothers.
I don't care whether you believe in
justice or not,
but remember this:
anyone who sees life as expendable,
whether it's me, Yuan Shaocheng,
or this Court of Judicial Review,
will never let them
live another day.
- Yes, sir! - Yes, sir!
All of you,
come with me.
Sir,
the burly man you kept
is quite fierce.
This humble life
holds less value than even a lowly creature,
yet it still serves
a purpose.
Bravo!
- Bravo! - Bravo!
Get up!
Get up!
Keep fighting.
Quick, let's leave.
The Court of Judicial Review is here.
What are they here for?
What's going on?
There's no case here at Longmen Arena
that the Court of Judicial Review
should be handling.
What's with
the grand entrance?
Listen up.
The Court of Judicial Review
is shutting down Longmen Arena today.
Anyone not involved,
leave immediately.
Yuan Shaocheng,
[Li Qianzhao] you think
[The son of the Prince of Langyang] you have power now, huh?
What?
Now that you've just been promoted,
you think you can come to Longmen Arena
and stand up
for these rats?
The Court of Judicial Review has confirmed
that Qi Junshan secretly colluded with Du Liang.
He was involved in corruption,
and all his gambling establishments,
including the Longmen Arena,
will be sealed by the Court of Judicial Review.
Are you seriously that clueless?
How can Longmen Arena
possibly be compared
to Qi Junshan's other gambling houses?
It doesn't matter whose name it's under.
This place
was built by imperial decree during the reign of Ruler Wen.
Who do you think you are
to demand its closure?
I am acting in accordance with the laws of the nation
and the Great Feng legal code.
You are so audacious!
Do you even know
who Mr. Li's father is?
Shut up!
Listen closely.
Even if members of the imperial family came today,
they would still be subject
to the laws of the Great Feng.
Does the law specify
that the only way for the lowly
to escape their status
is through mutual slaughter?
Or does it state
that Longmen Arena
is untouchable?
Ask everyone to exit Longmen Arena!
- Yes, sir! - Yes, sir!
Hold on.
[Cui Yi, Vice Minister of Justice] You are right, Mr. Yuan.
There is no clause in the law
regarding this.
However, Longmen Arena
was established by Ruler Wen.
To seal it,
according to the rules,
you must first seek permission from Her Majesty.
Unauthorized action
would be a grave offense, implicating the Ministry of Justice
in an act of disrespect.
Moreover,
even if permission
is granted by Her Majesty,
this place
can be sealed or demolished
as she sees fit.
If that happens, others will simply find a new location
to build another Longmen Arena.
You make a good point, Mr. Cui.
There's no point in arguing
with a simpleton.
This location is far too remote anyway.
Tomorrow, I'll choose a more impressive site
and build a grander,
more majestic venue.
Let's head out.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
[Zhanlu Hall]
Your Majesty,
Mr. Yuan requests an audience.
Mr. Yuan,
you've just been promoted by two ranks,
yet I
have received several memorials
accusing you
of disregarding the protocol of proper conduct,
repeatedly sending people to interfere
with the Longmen Arena, which was established by Ruler Wen.
Is this true?
Your Majesty,
I have come today
precisely for this matter.
I have taken the liberty
to reserve the Longmen Arena for tomorrow
and I humbly invite Your Majesty
to come and witness the Longmen Battle.
Mr. Yuan, be cautious with your words.
The Longmen Arena is located in a remote area,
surrounded by filthy commoners,
with a stench in the air.
Her Majesty's health is too precious
to risk going to such a place.
Attendant Fan, that's not quite right.
It is precisely because Her Majesty is the supreme ruler,
blessed with divine protection,
that all the foulness will retreat
at the mere presence of Her Majesty.
Why do you insist on having me
watch the Longmen Battle?
Because every time the Longmen Battle is held,
someone ends up crippled
or dead.
Mr. Yuan,
you're exaggerating.
Though I've never been to Longmen Arena,
I know that the Longmen Battle
is just a casual contest
among the lower class,
involving wrestling,
strength comparison,
and perhaps a few minor scratches.
Attendant Fan, since you've never been there,
what grounds do you have to say such things?
Well...
Your Majesty,
Longmen Arena was built by Ruler Wen,
yet now,
it has become a place where lives are deemed worthless.
This is truly an affront to the great name of Ruler Wen.
Whether it is true or not,
Your Majesty,
you shall witness it yourself tomorrow.
Should I utter even a single falsehood,
Your Majesty
may punish me for deceiving the throne.
[Li Zongxu, the Prince of Langyang]
Father,
I don't know
what's gotten into Yuan Shaocheng.
He's been fixated
on Longmen Arena all day,
flaunting his authority.
Who's he trying to impress?
Your great-uncle sent word
that Her Majesty
will visit Longmen Arena tomorrow.
What?
That Yuan Shaocheng is something else.
He's secretly
going against all the noble families.
Zhao,
watch your words.
What do noble families have to do with this?
I told you to distribute food to the poor
and do some good deeds,
yet you left
the congee stand
and kept going to Longmen Arena.
I can't sit there all day
under the blazing sun
at the congee stand.
Your temperament is nothing like mine.
So impatient.
Keep a low profile these days.
Don't make a mess like last time
and cause a death.
In a couple of days,
come with me to the feast for the people.
Report.
Master,
someone came with a letter for you.
Leave now.
Father,
forget about the congee stand
and the feast for the people.
The lives of the poor don't matter.
When will you let me have a say
in the transfer
of the official salt rights?
I asked you to manage the fabric shop.
Have you handled it properly?
Remember,
you need
to take things one step at a time
to go far.
I understand, Father.
Don't worry.
I'll definitely rise above your achievements.
Bad news.
Master.
Master.
Little Master jumped down the stairs
and accidentally hurt its paw.
You useless fool!
You hurt its paw.
I'll break your legs!
Someone!
Zhao,
go check its injury first.
Master,
I am to blame.
It's all my fault.
Zhao was speaking out of anger,
but I've always been careful
with how I train you servants.
The punishment
is to teach you a lesson,
so you won't make the same mistake again,
right?
You are right, Master.
It is
my blessing.
Since it's your blessing,
go ahead and enjoy it.
Keep the melody going.
I'm blessed.
I'm blessed.
I'm blessed.
I'm blessed.
I'm blessed.
I'm blessed.
I'm blessed.
Mr. Yuan is truly impressive.
He actually managed to get Her Majesty
to come watch the Longmen Battle.
This is unprecedented!
If the Empress enjoys the spectacle,
not only might those competing
be freed from their lowly status,
but there could also be rewards for everyone.
We all still need to be cautious.
There must be no slip-ups
in tomorrow's Longmen Battle.
- Understood. - Understood.
What's wrong?
After years
of navigating the officialdom,
I've seen too many underhand tactics.
The noble families
don't want Longmen Arena to be sealed.
Yet everything
is progressing so smoothly.
Now, I can't help but feel uneasy.
You've already done enough
for Longmen Arena.
Don't stress so much.
After tomorrow,
everything will get better.
It's the middle of the night.
All is well.
What's going on?
It's the middle of the night.
All is well.
Oh, my!
Ghost!
Ghost!
There's a ghost!
Help! Ghost!
Who's there?
Ghost...
I... I am the watchman.
Don't move.
There's a ghost.
There's a ghost.
I'm telling the truth.
Follow me.
There's a ghost.
There's no ghost.
It's all in his head.
Commander.
Commander. There's a ghost!
Unusual things never happen without a cause.
We are the Empress's guards.
We can't back down.
Charge!
What's there to fear?
Stop with the ghost nonsense.
Come at me!
- Ghost! - Help!
What's going on here?
I heard something interesting.
People say that Yanqing Lane is haunted.
The residence in Willow Alley
was suddenly covered
in skulls overnight.
Who do you think
is behind this trickery?
Nice.
This is brilliant.
I knew
you'd be interested.
You're getting more and more thoughtful.
No way I'm missing out
on this fun.
This is downright creepy.
Look.
The skeletons are bleeding.
Yanqing Lane
must be cursed by some evil force.
These skulls…
Did they rise from the underground?
You might be haunted
by vengeful spirits if you go out at night.
This is terrifying!
If you've got some money,
move out fast.
This place is way too eerie.
The Court of Judicial Review is handling a case.
All unrelated persons, stand back.
Anyone who disobeys will be considered an accomplice
and taken into custody.
- Let's get out of here. - Let's go.
Get to the bottom of this!
I want to see
who dares to stir up trouble
in Yanqing Lane
with tricks and deception.
I will not let them off!
Yes, sir.
So what if you get to the bottom of it?
What brings you here to add to the noise?
I'm not here to add to the noise.
I've come to strike a deal
with you.
It's always me
who goes to others to strike a deal.
No one has ever
had the audacity
to come to me.
You were supposed
to invite Her Majesty to watch the Longmen Battle today.
But with the ghost disturbance in Yanqing Lane last night,
there's no way
Her Majesty will come now.
Who wouldn't want Her Majesty to come?
The headless ghost has appeared,
and Yanqing Lane is plagued with ominous signs.
This news reached the palace
early this morning,
and the stubborn old officials
all spoke in unison,
reporting to Her Majesty
that for her safety,
she must not venture
into Yanqing Lane.
This matter
doesn't need any investigation,
because it's not just one person
defending the Longmen Arena,
but all of the noble families.
They are truly vicious.
Vicious?
It's not that bad.
Indeed.
In terms of being vicious,
no one is your match, Miss Ye.
Now, tell me,
what kind of deal
are you trying to make with me?
I have a way
to get Her Majesty to watch the Longmen Battle again,
but there's a condition.
You must take me into the archives
to check the files of the censor case.
Of course,
if you're unwilling, that's understandable.
After all, if anyone finds out
you're reviewing the files of the censor case,
it could cause trouble.
You're turning something so minor
into a deal?
Fine.
But according to the rules,
I can enter the archives,
but you, Miss Ye,
cannot.
Is this a yes from you?
You're agreeing so easily. This isn't like you at all.
Even a ruthless predator
can show justice sometimes.
Well then, I'll thank you in advance.
I'll take my leave now.
You figure things out here yourself.
The sense of justice is gone.
I told you.
As expected,
you'll make a deal with me after all.
You're quite bold,
sitting in that grand chair.
How do you know
that the people who sat there before
weren't the ones hanging above?
Because
I've seen scenes
far more terrifying than this.
Since they've set the stage,
let's make sure
we give them a great show.
Commander,
there's something
strange again tonight.
What are you afraid of?
Let's go.
What's that?
Look!
Something strange is happening again!
Pretending to be all mystical.
Are you done or not?
What... What should we do?
We are the guards of the Empress.
Go after it!
Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
Commander,
why is it this place again?
Do we have to go in?
Maybe
we could pretend that we didn't see anything.
Don't be such a coward.
Everyone, listen up.
Surround this residence.
You two stay on guard outside.
The rest of you, come in with me.
Stop acting all mysterious.
Show yourself!
Wait!
[Long live the Divine Empress.]
[May the imperial reign flourish forever.]
Your Majesty has preserved my life,
and I've come to express my gratitude.
You've done well
with the military fund case.
How is your health now?
I was still feeling a bit off,
but after having a dream last night,
I woke up and surprisingly,
the pain wasn't as bad.
What kind of dream was it?
Tell me about it.
I dreamed
of a snow-white parrot
flying into Yanqing Lane.
Then,
it transformed
into a little golden figure with a bald head.
I
once kept
a white parrot that could chant Buddhist sutras.
How coincidental
that your dream mirrors that.
Greetings, Your Majesty.
I'm here to present this auspicious sign.
Yesterday, you reported an ill omen,
and today, you presented another auspicious one.
What's going on?
I'm sorry, Your Majesty.
I don't know how to explain it.
The Imperial Guards were chasing a small golden statue
and ended up in Yanqing Lane,
where they dug up
this good omen
from the haunted house.
[Long live the Divine Empress.]
[May the imperial reign flourish forever.]
Since you have presented the auspicious omen,
I
will reward you generously.
You may leave now.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Oh, you.
It seems I must go
to the Longmen Arena
after all.
Go
and find me
a set of regular clothes at once.
Remember,
if this leaks out,
I will hold you responsible.
Yes, Your Majesty.
[Longmen Arena]
Wait.
You two
seem unfamiliar.
This is your first time here, right?
May I ask,
which family do you come from?
This is...
Mr. Sheng,
a rising star in the capital.
He lives in a mansion adorned with golden lacquer.
There aren't many gold-plated mansions
in the capital, are there?
Didn't anyone tell you
that you have to pay an entry fee
for your first time at the Longmen Arena?
I didn't bring any money.
The money is all carried by the servants.
How could we have any on us?
If you want some,
go to the Mei Mansion and ask for it.
You...
[Longmen]
Welcome, honored guests,
to the Longmen Arena!
The Longmen Arena is a place where people
of lower status can leap into higher social ranks.
Today, we have two carefully selected
exceptional fighters,
who will surely
put on an exciting show.
Please welcome them to the stage.
Both of these lowborn individuals from Mang Gutter
have children.
Can you guess
who will win?
Since you've both signed
the death warrant,
the old rules stand:
Participation is voluntary, and your fate rests in your own hands.
The winner and their children
will be freed from their lowly status
and receive land.
Now, let the competition begin!
Fight!
Why aren't you hitting harder?
You are not fierce enough.
Hit like you're trying to kill!
Put some strength into it. This is so boring.
This is no fun at all.
What's going on here?
Come on.
Why aren't you hitting him?
This is too dull.
Why aren't you getting up?
What a disappointment.
The Longmen Arena
has gotten more and more boring recently.
Mr. Pei,
I think we'd be better off
heading to Wanguoxiang Tavern to enjoy some music.
At this place,
let's refrain from addressing each other by name.
Don't worry.
Given the ghostly disturbances,
the one from the palace
will never set foot here.
That's true.
I could recognize these old folks
just by looking at the back
of their heads.
Stop.
Stop.
Everyone,
these are the Iron Fist Rings.
Their fighting style
is different from that of traditional barehanded combat.
Once these two lowly people wear it,
every punch will draw blood
and each strike will be fatal.
- Great! - Great!
Now this is worth watching.
That's actually a great idea.
Put it on.
Please place your bets, gentlemen.
I'll also bet on the red one.
Please place your bets.
I'll bet on the red one.
Sir.
I'll bet on the red one as well.
Please place your bets.
- Bravo! - Bravo!
- Bravo! - Bravo!
Get up.
Get up!
- Get up! - Get up!
Get up.
Get up!
Get up!
Get up!
Get up!
- Get up! - Get up!
Get up now!
Get up!
Get up!
Stand up!
Come on. Get up.
Continue.
Get up!
- Get up! - Get up!
Is he about to lose? He's so weak.
Get up now.
Get up!
Get up!
Get up!
Mr. Wang.
What is Yuan Shaocheng doing?
Why is he causing trouble?
They've always fought with bare hands.
Why break the rules now?
Mr. Yuan,
in the Longmen Arena,
there's no such thing as rules.
The nobles spend money for entertainment,
and my duty is to ensure
they're entertained.
That's the only rule.
Call off the competition now!
I...
Go on
and fight.
Bravo!
- Bravo! - Bravo!
Bravo!
You need to put
more fat in the filling.
The ideal filling
is mostly lean with a bit of fat.
If it's too lean, it's dry,
and too much fat makes it greasy.
The best ratio is two parts lean meat
to one part fat.
Also,
I've told you this before.
Your meat stall shouldn't just sell meat.
You should also sell vegetables.
It needs a good mix of both.
Since you don't sell vegetables,
I'll have to walk all the way
to the vegetable stand,
which is 167 steps away.
You are right.
You can tell the lady
about your feelings.
If she says yes,
I will take charge
of the wedding.
Here you go.
Take care.
Come again next time.
I'm packing up. No more meat for sale today.
I'm not here to buy meat today.
Then why come here?
What's with that look?
I'm nervous.
Nervous?
Is there someone who wants to pick a fight with you?
I'm nervous
because I've encountered
someone I have feelings for.
Someone you have feelings for?
Where is she?
Who is the girl?
You.
I've been pondering this for a while
and I'm unsure how to say it.
I'm afraid you might think I'm being too forward.
The first time I saw you,
I felt like you
were different from others,
which is why I often come here to buy meat.
I have so much I want to say,
but once I start...
Then,
stop talking for now.
In that case,
tonight at the Hour of Xu,
on the Qinglong Bridge,
whether you accept or reject me,
I'll be waiting there for you.
All our hard work could be for nothing
due to a minor mistake.
As a minister,
you can't even eliminate Ye Ping'an?
Are you keeping her alive
to ruin my grand plan?
Please calm your anger.
Ye Ping'an
will be eliminated
without a doubt.
But before she dies,
she can still be of use.
What do you mean?
Her Majesty has always had the intention
to promote those from humble backgrounds.
Li Muyuan argued against my choice
of the new Minister of Revenue
because he would rather Her Majesty
promote a commoner
for the sake of balance
than let one of our people
take the position.
Ji, the upright official's reputation
is well-known.
During the Qianlong era,
he served as the Assistant Minister of the Court of Judicial Review,
handling cases with exceptional skills.
In just one year, he adjudicated
over 17,000 accumulated cases,
none of which were misjudged.
With him around,
our plan to have Xue Zhongshan
control the salt tax
is effectively ruined.
What you said is true,
but if we look at it from another angle,
we'll discover who really controls
the salt trade in the capital.
As long as we can cut off
the Li family's source of income,
they will no longer
have the means
to fight us.
That's why, before this,
I deliberately let Ye Ping'an see
the Seven-Petal Epiphyllum painting.
It was all part of the plan.
Since she is a useful tool,
we shouldn't waste her.
Choosing the right people is crucial.
Du Liang
was promoted to the capital by you,
but he quickly switched allegiance
to the Li family.
You can rest easy.
Just observe the situation as it unfolds.
When it's time to act,
we won't have trouble
finding a way to take Ye Ping'an's life.
There are so many lanterns and they look so pretty.
But none of them are as pretty as the ones you made.
I only like the ones you made.
