[Kill My Sins] [This is a work of fiction]

- Darned official! - Kill him!

Take his life!

End him!

He's so heartless.

Execute him!

He deserves to die!

Mother,

I got you involved in this.

I can only repay

whatever you've done to me

in my next life.

You upheld righteousness.

I'm proud of you.

Heaven is unjust,

but justice will return in time.

I am not afraid of death.

On the road to the underworld,

hold my hand tight,

got it?

Make sure

to hold...

your mother's hand tight,

my boy!

Execute him.

[Episode 18] [The Path of Defiance]

Listen up.

Assigning you to Mingyi Lane

to build Tiansheng Tower

is a reward for you.

Anyone aged fifteen

to forty

will go to Mingyi Lane

[Directorate for the Palace Buildings] in ten days.

Do you understand?

Once the tower is built,

will we really get fully paid?

Sure.

As long as you

don't slack off even for a moment

and move the sand and wood carefully

without wasting or breaking anything.

But what if we fall ill

in the middle?

- Yes. - Exactly.

- Yeah. - Right.

You've been too overly protected

to forget your places, huh?

Do you remember who you are?

If illness causes a delay,

that's a serious crime.

Please wait, sir.

Sir!

Sir,

please have mercy.

I'm the only one in my family

to look after my young child.

What about him

if I'm gone for months?

Wait, sir!

Get lost!

How can you beat him?

Sir!

You smeared my clothes.

Sir, have mercy, please!

Get up.

Are you okay?

What should I do?

What can I do?

Mr. Yuan,

are you feeling better?

Do you need more medicine?

Just don't beat about the bush.

Directorate for the Palace Buildings took the order to build Tiansheng Tower.

They say there aren't enough workers,

so they want to draft the people from Mang Gutter to help.

I'm worried...

Mr. Yuan, where are you going?

You're not planning to confront him,

are you?

It's not his idea.

I know who's behind this.

[Hai Mansion]

The weather is getting cooler,

and you haven't recovered.

Someone,

bring a brazier for Mr. Yuan.

What's wrong with you?

Why put it so close to him?

What if a spark

catches Mr. Yuan?

Move it farther away.

Yes.

Mr. Hai,

I heard the Directorate for the Palace Buildings

drafted the people from Mang Gutter

to build Tiansheng Tower.

They are treated as inferior.

Her Majesty sympathizes with them,

allowing them to work for wages.

It's a good thing.

But before spring,

when farmers were sent to build the Yunze Canal,

eleven died

within two months.

The farmers had land,

but the Mang Gutter people do not.

Besides,

they won't

be paid

until the work is finished.

Building Tiansheng Tower will take

at least two or three months.

If the young people leave,

how will their families

survive?

Actually,

there's still room to discuss.

I've already removed the obstacles

blocking your door.

Why are you still

using Mang Gutter people to pressure me?

You handled Li Zongxu's matters

pretty well.

But more than your abilities,

I value

your loyalty.

I have high hopes for you,

and I believe you were just momentarily confused

so you hesitated

about getting rid of Ye Ping'an.

If you want to play the game,

you first have to learn

how to be a good piece on the board.

I have never hesitated,

and I won't

let you down.

But

Her Majesty holds Ye Ping'an in high regard.

If we want to eliminate her,

we must take it slowly and plan carefully.

With time,

I'm confident I can find

a decisive opening.

The deadline is approaching, and the weather is cooling.

You must act fast.

[Hai Mansion]

Mr. Yuan.

For the next few days,

keep an eye on Ye Ping'an.

Keep me posted

with anything unusual.

Also,

Vice Minister of Justice, Zhao Feng,

is an upright man.

Find an excuse

and take him to Mang Gutter.

Got it.

Xu Qing pawned a copper bull

worth only a few liang of silver.

Why did the owner lie?

If you ask me,

we need to find a way

to get their ledger

and see

what they're really up to.

If there's anything shady,

it wouldn't be on the official ledger.

There should be a secret ledger.

Nichang,

go to Wanguoxiang and investigate

who's behind Jinlu Pawnshop.

Danxin,

try to get

a job

at the pawnshop.

No problem.

The shop owner didn't think much

of the items I pawned.

But you're from

the Prince of Langya's family.

If you go,

he'll definitely show respect

and change his attitude in an instant.

Such pawnshops

are always backed by someone.

That owner isn't even worthy of meeting me.

You haven't finished your liquor yet.

Tonight, I'll make you drink a few more cups.

Cheers.

[Jinlu Pawnshop]

Leave.

The shopkeeper made it clear

to you.

He's my uncle.

That's why I work here.

You're a stranger,

and you want to work here too?

Just leave.

Keep the liquor far away from me.

I've been drinking for two days straight.

Now, just the smell makes me want to vomit.

I'll make you some hangover soup.

But it wasn't in vain.

I found out

the owner of Jinlu Pawnshop

is the disciple of Gong Shao,

the magistrate of Dongqiao Salt Granary.

More interestingly,

guess who

recommended Gong Shao

for the position?

It's related to salt.

Could it be

the Li family?

No.

It was Minister of Personnel,

Hai Yiping,

Mr. Hai.

When

you saw her,

was your brother

together with her?

Yan is also here?

Let's have some refreshments.

I didn't expect that you'd be set up

right after taking office.

What is this person's agenda?

Is it because of your past dealings

with Du Liang?

Hai Yiping?

But didn't you already find out

he's close friends with Yu Qian?

So what if they're close friends?

Does that mean they won't turn on each other

over personal interests?

I'm not sure about others,

but we'll never

betray each other.

The secret ledger is very crucial.

Keep investigating

Jinlu Pawnshop.

[Anxin House]

Is Miss Ye here?

Miss Ye.

Mr. Cai.

Miss Ye.

Miss Ye.

This is bad.

That crazy old man

is missing.

What happened?

After your treatment

for the past few days,

he was able

to take care of himself.

So I let my guard down.

There were many buyers today,

and I didn't close the front

and back doors.

When I finished talking to the buyers,

I called for him and realized he was missing.

Calm down.

Though his mind isn't clear,

the most likely places he'll go

are the ones he used to go before.

Let's check those places.

Alright.

Sweet melon.

Fragrant and sweet melon.

Right here.

This is where

I first met him.

We've searched everywhere

we can think of.

Where else could he have gone?

Warm wontons.

You scared me to death.

I've been searching for you like crazy.

Autumn is here, the sky so bright.

Grass grows tall in the morning light.

Cut the weeds to feed the stock.

Wash them clean, and then chop them into blocks.

Nice rhyme.

You're a butcher, right?

In this capital?

Capital?

Yes.

I'm going to the capital.

Can you take me there?

Alright,

I will.

Thank you.

It's a beautiful autumn day.

Since we're already out,

let's let him get some fresh air before heading back.

Alright.

Autumn is here, the sky so bright.

[Ministry of Justice] Grass grows tall in the morning light.

Cut the weeds to feed...

My son is innocent!

Please, have mercy!

Get away!

Let me see the Minister!

Who do you think you are?

Stop causing trouble here.

Don't hit me!

Please!

Don't hit me!

Please don't!

What a fire!

I put out the candle.

I did!

I remember now.

I didn't start the fire!

It wasn't me!

I've done nothing wrong to my daughter!

You've wronged me!

You've framed me!

[Hai Mansion] It's you!

Are you crazy?

Do you know where this is?

This is... Let's go home.

Come on.

Let's go.

He...

Do you remember something?

Like your name?

Don't hit me!

I've done nothing wrong to my daughter!

Don't hit me!

Don't worry.

As long as we're here,

no one will hurt you.

You mentioned your daughter.

Do you remember

her name now?

My daughter…

Lianhua.

My daughter's name is Chang Lianhua.

Get up, please.

Come on.

Get up.

Get up.

So your last name is Chang?

Yes.

My name is Chang Qing.

Please, I beg you,

save my daughter!

Clear her name!

Alright,

we'll

find a way.

Yup.

We will.

OK?

No!

You're all in this together!

You had me imprisoned

and let people beat me.

You're all liars!

It's him!

It's you!

You're the one who started the fire!

I didn't start that fire!

You have a death wish?

He's crazy.

He's just crazy.

Let's go.

Go!

It was him!

[Hai Mansion]

You're responsible for the fire!

He's mad.

Beat him to death!

It wasn't me!

It wasn't me!

It wasn't me!

The shawl...

My shawl...

Here it is.

Your daughter made this for you?

It's beautiful.

The shawl from my daughter...

My daughter...

You know her?

I don't.

It was just a guess.

My daughter...

was wronged.

I'll clear her name.

I can help you,

but you have to tell me

what happened

to your daughter.

She's dead.

She was burned alive.

Many years ago,

your daughter went missing.

One day, you suddenly learned

she was kidnapped into an abandoned house.

Before she could be rescued,

she was burned to death

in the fire.

Am I right?

Nod if I am.

Yes.

You came to the capital around that time?

I sold my cattle and sheep,

exchanged them for money, and came here.

[Ministry of Justice]

But...

The censor's case is final.

The criminal, Yu Qian, has confessed.

What further grievance do you have?

Sir,

this case is not

the work of Yu Qian alone.

After my daughter went missing,

I reported it to County Constable Du Liang,

but he refused to take it.

There's definitely something fishy here.

How dare you!

You have no evidence.

How dare you slander an official?

Get out of here now!

There's more to this than meets the eye.

I want to see the official!

let me see the official!

If you keep causing trouble,

you'll be beheaded!

I won't leave!

I must clear my daughter's name!

I want to see the official!

My money ran out soon.

To survive,

I had to work for others.

I fed pigs

and sheep.

I even

stopped carriages.

I stopped the officials' carriages to plead for justice.

I begged them for help,

but

no one did.

Then...

- Then... -Then,

you turned to Hai Yiping,

right?

You mentioned the candle

and said you didn't start the fire.

Is it related

to the burning of the censor's case files?

Hai Yiping...

I remember now.

They say he is a good man,

someone who can bring justice.

You want to clear your daughter's name?

Yes.

Please, help me.

Help my poor daughter.

I beg you.

Please don't.

Come on.

Please rise.

I'll

ask someone to help retrieve the case files

and see if we can find any clues.

Rest in the guest room for now.

Thank you, Mr. Hai.

I appreciate it.

Please have some tea.

No.

I'm just a rough man.

How can I drink such fine tea?

This is how my master

treats guests.

If you don't drink,

others will think

he looks down on you.

I'm truly fortunate

to meet someone as great

as Mr. Hai.

Mr. Hai.

Sir,

this is the

file of the censor's case.

Take your time.

I have other guests to attend to.

Alright.

Thank you, Mr. Hai.

After drinking the tea,

I felt dizzy.

I thought

I was just exhausted.

Before I fell asleep,

I clearly remember blowing out the candle.

However...

The case file!

Someone, help!

Put out the fire!

You're responsible for this!

The case file is burned!

Someone, help!

Help!

Hurry up!

Put out the fire!

The file...

I'm sorry!

It was all my fault!

What's wrong with you?

How could you be so heartless?

Mr. Hai was kind enough to help you,

and you dared

to set fire to the house

and destroy the case file!

It was all my fault!

I was to blame.

I don't know why this is happening.

I owe my daughter a lot.

What did you say?

And you're still crying here?

What you've done

will get Mr. Hai in big trouble.

Do you understand?

Alright, enough.

He's also a pitiful man.

Let's not blame him

for setting the fire.

Let him go.

Leave now.

Mr. Hai,

I'm sorry.

Coming.

The water's here.

Leave now.

I'm not crazy

or foolish.

I didn't start that fire.

I really didn't!

I know.

I know.

Lian.

You're Lian?

I'm not Lian.

You are.

Look at this wolf fang.

I

polished this

for you.

It can ward off evil

and keep you safe.

My name

is Cailian.

My daughter's name is Chang Lianhua.

Lian,

you've finally come back to see me.

Please, don't leave again.

Oh, my handkerchief...

Hurry, bring it to me.

Alright.

[No haggling]

Why hasn't the assistant come yet?

He's late for too long.

Sir,

do you remember me?

I've brought something nice.

Take a look.

This jade's quality

is decent.

The gold edge is also

acceptable, I suppose.

However,

I can only offer you 100 liang for it.

Look at the craftsmanship.

It should be worth at least 200 liang.

Well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

When it comes to craftsmanship,

it's actually the least valuable part.

This one's good.

Can I trade this with my hairpin?

You really have a good eye.

But this is redeemable pawned.

Without the owner's consent,

I can't sell it.

But the more I look at it, the more I like it.

Can you help me arrange a meeting with the owner?

I'm sure we can negotiate the price.

Please wait a moment.

[Ledger]

Look at this one.

This one is non-redeemable.

Look at its color.

It is so even.

Listen to this sound,

so crisp.

If you like it,

you can trade your hairpin

for this piece of porcelain.

Let me see.

When did you come in?

Sir,

I've been waiting to pawn my item.

Excuse me,

I was here first.

Please wait here

for a while.

Let me tell you,

everything in my shop

is valuable.

I can't stand any thief.

Why didn't you make a sound when you came in?

Sir,

be reasonable.

If you hadn't been talking

for so long,

would I have waited this long?

I...

What?

Is this how you do business?

Forget it. I won't deal here.

You...

Sir,

I think this one's quite good.

I'll trade for this one instead.

Here you go.

Really?

Yeah.

Good.

Miss Ye,

who sent

you here?

What case are you handling?

I'm not.

I'm just trading

for something I like.

You...

You're actually an official?

Shopkeeper,

you dare take in

this suspicious item?

Sir, I suspect

that what this woman has

is stolen.

That's enough.

Come with me.

Take the item with you.

Once it's checked,

we'll return it to you.

You were flaunting your authority in front of me.

Who was it for?

No one's making a show.

I warned you

not to interfere

with the salt issue.

And let me advise you one last time.

After Li Zongxu's matters,

forget about

the censor's case.

Is it

because of Hai Yiping?

You've known all along

he's involved in the case.

No wonder

on Wan'an Mountain,

before I could even question Li Zongxu,

you were eager to have him killed.

No wonder

you didn't let me get involved in Xu Qing's case.

Since when did you know

Hai Yiping

was involved?

Since the military fund case.

Back then,

you allowed Li Jun to take me away.

I didn't blame you.

I know we were

just using each other.

But later,

you told me

I was your confidant.

What a confidant.

For all this time,

you knew

he was plotting against me,

yet for your own future,

you concealed the truth

and watched me desperately

investigate the censor's case.

Since you understand all this,

you should also know

that among all the important matters in the world,

it is not

the only one that matters.

You can't take

this secret ledger with you.

I'm going to return it.

How did you know

I would go to the pawnshop today?

I see.

You've had people following me,

waiting to snatch the ledger

from my hands,

so you can take credit for it with Hai Yiping.

Since you've figured it all out,

I have nothing more to explain.

I was naive before.

The path in the official world is full of obstacles,

and there are no real confidants.

Give it to me.

You can't take the secret ledger.

Something worth just a few liang

was pawned for over a thousand.

Clearly, it's being used

as a cover

to withdraw money from the pawnshop.

Give it to me.

Hold it properly.

Don't just give it away to others.

I recently treated a patient

named Chang Qing.

To uncover the truth

of his daughter's death

and clear the slander

that was pinned on her.

He was driven mad by Hai Yiping

and wandered the capital for over a decade.

He was just one of those

who had no hope of justice and lost everything.

Don't become my enemy,

or even you,

I won't show mercy.

So,

what exactly happened today?

The secret ledger

was taken by Yuan Shaocheng.

It's clear that the one behind this,

trying to get rid of me,

is Hai Yiping.

Those who pretend to be kind are the most horrible.

They're respected by the common people.

If we accuse him of serious crimes,

who would believe us?

Yet Yuan Shaocheng is intent on protecting him.

He knows so much about us.

Aren't we

in great danger?

If he truly wanted to help Hai Yiping,

he would have betrayed us long ago,

but he didn't.

In fact,

he didn't even truly stop me

from reading the ledger.

There must be a reason

for the sudden change in his attitude.

Nichang,

when are you going to Yangzhou?

I was planning

to leave you all behind.

But now we're surrounded by danger.

If I leave,

you'll be left

with nothing.

I'll stay a little longer.

Even if we face some disasters,

your sharp tongue will help us out.

Planning to leave us behind?

Should I remind you

who drank so much

and almost vomited the other day?

Then, you'll need

to inquire with the noble families

about the news from the court.

Leave that to me.

As for Hai Yiping,

we need to reassess him.

[Ministry of Personnel] He typically only travels

between the Ministry of Personnel and his residence.

Apart from necessary social engagements,

he rarely goes anywhere else.

The servants in his house

have been with him for many years.

Hai Yiping wields both benevolence and coercion.

He personally arranges for the families

of his servants to be taken care of,

posing as charity, but in reality, it's a threat.

That's why they're all very loyal.

I can't infiltrate his house

by being a servant.

He's neither greedy for money

[Anxin House] nor lustful.

Both in the court and beyond,

he has a good reputation,

and it's almost impossible to find any flaws.

[Anxin House]

Hai Yiping can no longer wait.

He fears I have evidence against him,

so he's been keeping me under his watch.

We won't be able

to do anything if this continues.

He even tried to manipulate others to do his bidding,

but now,

there's no need for him to hide anymore.

Since I've exposed

myself to him,

it's better to confront him

and drag everyone down with us.

How?

I want

to see the Empress.

Considering his earlier attempt on the envoy's life,

Li Zongxu must have already been branded

a villain in Her Majesty's eyes.

I can expose his crimes

in the censor's case.

I'll petition Her Majesty to reopen the investigation.

[Accusation Letter] With the authority to help in the case,

I can investigate those involved,

including Hai Yiping.

[Ye Ping'an]

Now,

it's a race between us

to see who can gain the upper hand.

No one is allowed inside without a summon.

[Psychiatric Commissioner]

Mr. Fan.

Miss Ye,

it's not good timing.

Her Majesty

has been fasting and praying

and offering blessings for the people.

She is not seeing anyone.

I have urgent matters to report.

I've said it,

Her Majesty is not seeing anyone.

You may leave.

When will Her Majesty finish her prayers?

I'm not sure.

Take her out of the palace.

I have a grievance to present.

I beg to see Your Majesty.

Ye Ping'an,

no shouting here.

If you disturb Her Majesty,

you'll be beheaded.

Even so,

I won't leave.

Your Majesty,

the censor's case from over a decade ago

was a wrongful case.

Li Zongxu

was one of the major criminals.

The Seven-Petal Epiphyllum mark

I'm holding

is proof of his torture

of countless innocent women.

Miss Ye,

you should leave.

The palace is not your stage.

If you make the wrong show,

you

will be doomed.

Are you curious why I'm here,

right?

You have many spies,

so it's not surprising.

What's strange is

that Her Majesty avoids me.

The trick you played

made me curious.

All I did

was inform Her Majesty

that you plotted to kill Li Zongxu

at Wan'an Mountain.

When did you suspect

I was involved in the censor's case?

From the moment

you started going after Du Liang.

Speaking of which,

I must thank you on behalf of Yan

for treating her.

Mr. Hai,

you really play your cards well.

Miss Ye,

you flatter me.

You were once a good official,

a filial son,

and even a loving brother

in my eyes.

But you never thought

that those women

were someone else's cherished

daughters and sisters.

I just want to know,

what role

did you play

in the censor's case?

In this world,

everything is about stance,

not right or wrong.

I have served as an official for many years.

I work for the people's benefit

and accomplished countless good deeds.

Why do you

cling to that matter

from years ago?

Yet, you promoted

corrupt officials like Du Liang,

who brought harm to the people

and committed

countless crimes.

Mr. Hai,

are you truly

working for the people?

Stop arguing here.

You saw it too, didn't you?

As long as Her Majesty

doesn't want to punish Li Zongxu,

no matter how hard you try,

it will be in vain.

Trying to challenge the powerful with your position

is like an ant shaking a tree.

It's been over a decade,

everything has been settled.

You cannot meet Her Majesty,

but I know plenty of people

who can.

Her Majesty will gradually

lose trust in you.

When that time comes,

no one will care

about your life and death.

You've already lost your chance.

One step too late,

and you'll lose everything.

Her Majesty will gradually

lose trust in you.

When that time comes,

no one will care

about your life and death.

You've already lost your chance.

One step too late,

and you'll lose everything.

So,

did you meet Her Majesty?

She refused to see me.

How so?

Doesn't Her Majesty favor you?

Why doesn't she meet you?

She believes

I've overstepped.

But without her protection,

Hai Yiping

could deal with you

at any moment.

Ping'an,

why don't you go

to Yangzhou with Nichang for a while?

If we leave,

you'll be left alone to face danger.

If you were me,

would you agree to that?

So, what's

your next move?

You're so alert

and caught on

to Ye Ping'an's movements.

As you said,

I'm learning

how to be a good piece.

Have you

read the ledger?

To be honest,

I've read it.

But as soon as I turned the page,

I knew I shouldn't keep reading.

You are the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.

You must know

who owns Jinlu Pawnshop, right?

It's a disciple of Granary Magistrate Gong Shao.

Do you want

to be my disciple?

Master,

thank you for taking me in.

But,

the dealings behind the pawnshop

have already been exposed.

Do you need me to...

To be my disciple,

you must stay righteous.

The pawnshop has nothing to do with you.

For these next few days,

keep a close eye on Ye Ping'an.

Make sure

she doesn't cause any more trouble.

I have a way to get into Hai Mansion.

What's it?

The paint used by Hai Yan

comes from the Qixi Painting Shop.

Find a way to work here

and take on the job of delivering paint,

and you'll get into Hai Mansion.

I'm curious to see

what Hai Yiping's

next move will be.
