[The Lost National Treasure]

[Episode 36]

Give me back my child.

Wen Wen,

this child is mine too.

What did you promise me back then?

You said that no matter whose child he is,

once he's born,

he belongs to Yuanguang and me.

If I give you the child,

how will you raise him?

How will you provide for him?

Wen Wen,

this isn't a path to life;

it's a path to ruin.

If Guang knew about this in the afterlife,

how could he ever rest in peace?

How dare you bring up Yuanguang?

If it hadn't been for you,

would he have ended up like this?

You ruined him.

You destroyed our whole family.

I'll bear your hatred and resentment, whatever it may be.

But I won't give you the child.

With me,

he can go to the best schools,

get the best education,

eat well and dress well.

Can you give him that?

The mistakes were ours.

He didn't do anything wrong.

Why should we take away his chance to grow up healthy and happy?

Wen Wen,

I'm doing this for your own good too.

The past is behind us.

Why not move on and look ahead?

You're still young.

How will you ever remarry if you're raising a child on your own?

Whether I remarry or not is none of your concern.

That child is my flesh and blood.

I don't care whose blood

runs in his veins anymore.

Even if we have to beg on the streets,

at least it's earned with a clear conscience.

Unlike you,

every cent you earn

is stained with Yuanguang's blood.

If you're set on taking the child,

then sue me.

You were Guang's wife,

and I've always wanted the best for you.

But when it comes to the child,

I won't give in.

It's alright now.

Let's cut the cake for the child.

I don't know you anymore.

Today,

we're

joined by colleagues from both the Public Security Bureau

and the Cultural Relics Bureau.

A special welcome to Chief Cheng Zhi,

who just returned from Beijing

and came straight here from the airport.

Chief Cheng,

would you like to say a few words?

Chief Zhao,

I'm in no rush to speak.

Let's first hear what our colleagues

from both departments have to say.

Since no one is speaking up, I'll go first.

The Uncle's gang

has been operating in Qinzhou Province

for over a decade.

Their criminal operations

have persisted over a long period

and extended across a wide region.

The gang members come from diverse backgrounds,

ranging from ordinary citizens

to

prominent figures.

Honestly, I'm not one

to complain,

but today, I have to speak up.

We're really struggling.

We're facing three major challenges in our investigations:

First, the number of cases is overwhelming—

it's tough.

Second, there are too many cultural relics to recover—

that's tough too.

Third, there are many people to arrest—

again, not easy.

When these difficulties pile up, it gets harder to handle.

These three—

Hold on a moment.

I know what you're trying to say,

so let me put your mind at ease first, alright?

The March 17th case

has drawn significant attention from leadership

at both the provincial and municipal levels.

After much deliberation, the provincial authorities have decided

to elevate the March 17th case

to a provincially supervised case.

The special investigation team will be upgraded,

with the city bureau assigning top officers

to reinforce the investigation team.

This also places higher demands

on our investigators.

We must further refine the division of responsibilities,

assigning specific individuals to handle tasks

such as arrests, interrogations,

field investigations, and case documentation

to improve overall efficiency.

If that's the case,

I won't say anything further.

While we're not afraid of challenges,

we certainly welcome

any support

the leadership can offer.

Enough.

I know what you're getting at.

You're asking for

logistical support, right?

Rest assured,

the higher-ups have specifically reviewed the matter

and issued clear instructions:

Funding for the investigation will be fully guaranteed.

Necessary vehicles will be provided.

No matter which jurisdiction the investigation leads to,

local police departments

are required to offer full and unwavering support.

Thank you, sir.

There's a buzzword making the rounds these days—"so dope."

Since our colleagues at the Public Security Bureau

have taken such a strong lead,

we at the Cultural Relics Bureau can't drop the ball either.

During my recent trip to Beijing,

I met with leaders and experts from the National Cultural Heritage Administration

and reported the details of the March 17th case

to them.

The leaders specifically asked me

to convey their appreciation for all your hard work.

They also hope you'll conduct a thorough investigation into the criminal gang

and ensure it is completely dismantled.

Efforts to recover the involved cultural relics must be intensified,

and we must prevent any further loss of cultural heritage.

Of course,

our cultural relics department

will provide full cooperation

and coordinate closely throughout the process.

Comrades,

since the 18th National Congress,

the Central Committee has made

the protection of cultural relics a top priority like never before.

issuing a series of significant directives.

The Ministry of Public Security and the National Cultural Heritage Administration

have jointly established

a dedicated coordination group to combat crimes related to cultural relics.

This group is tasked with deploying efforts to crack down on such crimes,

overseeing major cases,

coordinating cross-regional investigations,

and supporting local authorities in safeguarding cultural heritage.

At the same time,

we're gradually improving the system and mechanism

for recovering cultural relics lost overseas,

ensuring their prompt return home.

On this basis,

commissioned by Ministry of Public Security

and National Cultural Heritage Administration,

the Qinzhou Provincial Public Security Department

has set up a national center to combat cultural relic crimes.

The center has successfully completed its trial operation

and will officially launch soon.

It will be responsible for

the collection, review, analysis, and evaluation

of nationwide data related to cultural relics crimes,

providing comprehensive information support

to aid your efforts in solving cases.

Comrades,

our work in protecting cultural relics

has entered a new era.

From the Central Committee to the general public,

everyone is paying close attention.

With that comes even greater responsibility

on our shoulders.

However,

our confidence

has also grown stronger.

Folks,

let's just roll up our sleeves and get to work!

[Qinchuan Relics Inspection Team] [Qinchuan Cultural Heritage Bureau]

Welcome!

Hurry up!

Thank you for coming.

Welcome.

-Welcome. -Okay.

Any updates on Liu Shusheng's construction company?

His accountant fled south

but has been apprehended by our counterparts there.

Keep digging into the bank records.

Wu and Scar have been located.

Police!

Let's go.

Take him away.

Now, let me brief everyone on the latest developments.

We've uncovered a new lead.

Recently,

Chief Wu

traveled to Xiao Guoqiang's hometown, Huang Plain,

and found out that, twenty years ago, he worked as a driver for someone.

That person

was none other than

Zhao Youlin.

We looked into his background before.

Didn't seem like he had any ties to Huang Plain, right?

He did.

There was a connection.

Back then, Zhao Youlin had taken on a construction project in Huang Plain.

During our investigation, we heard some rumors

that

he uncovered an antique at the site.

Then he sold it off

and suddenly got rich overnight.

The story hasn't been confirmed,

but the fact

that Zhao Youlin deliberately hid this part of his past

makes him very suspicious.

So,

we'll keep tracking Xiao Guoqiang.

As for Zhao Youlin,

look into him thoroughly.

Be careful. Watch your step.

This way.

Mind your head.

Director.

Director Zhang.

-Mrs. Zan. -Thank you.

This is the section of

the rammed earth wall we've uncovered.

Shilin, take this.

Look here.

Yes.

That's right.

Come on.

Director Zhang.

Mrs. Zan.

It is indeed a rammed earth wall.

Incredible.

Just incredible.

I heard

it's been quite the challenge

for your team to find this rammed earth wall.

Don't even mention it.

Most archaeologists

look for signs of disturbed soil in raw earth,

but we're out here

trying to find disturbed soil inside disturbed soil,

and rammed earth hidden in more rammed earth.

The terrain here

was originally uneven.

So, in the past, when building the mausoleum complex,

they first filled low areas, then built rammed earth walls on top.

As a result, we're now

searching for rammed earth within rammed earth.

We've documented

the number of boreholes in our archaeological log,

but honestly,

if you asked us now,

we couldn't even tell.

There are just too many.

Sometimes,

we'd find two or three meters of this rammed earth wall,

and then it would suddenly cut off.

It's fragmented,

with many twists and turns.

We've found traces of this kind of wall surrounding the Yin Village grand tomb

in all four directions: east, south, west, and north.

Based on our preliminary estimates,

the remaining foundation

stretches about

1,200 meters from east to west,

and 860 meters from north to south,

forming a perfect enclosure around both the Yin Village grand tomb

and the Dou Mausoleum.

Do you all remember

the paved stone remains we discovered earlier?

During this excavation,

we've uncovered several more sections.

At present, we estimate the structure to be about 423 meters in length

and 1.5 meters in width.

We believe

this may mark

the boundary of the mausoleum complex of the Yin Village grand tomb,

so we've tentatively named it the "stone enclosure."

If that's the case,

then the Yin Village grand tomb

appears to have had a stone-built mausoleum boundary.

Yes.

The Dou Mausoleum

also has its own rammed earth enclosure wall.

So both of them are located within a single large mausoleum complex,

right?

Yes.

This setup

clearly follows the burial tradition

where the emperor and empress share a mausoleum but rest in separate tombs.

Exactly.

The configuration of the Yin Village grand tomb

and the Dou Mausoleum

is very similar to the Yang Mausoleum of Han.

Therefore, we can basically confirm that

we have found key evidence identifying

the Yin Village grand tomb

as the Zi Mausoleum of Emperor Taizong of Han.

That's great.

Though we don't have

a complete set of evidence

or a full report,

this one piece alone

is enough.

The landfill site

has been putting up fierce resistance.

They've pushed us too far.

We'll use this piece of evidence you've found

to negotiate with them.

I believe

we will win.

Alright, let's not waste any more time here.

Ms. Xiang, Zhang,

come with me to the city government.

Let's go.

Let's go.

-Let's go together. -Let's go together.

Let's go.

[Qinchuan Western Han Mausoleum Administration]

Comrades,

I'm pleased to announce

that the Qinchuan Western Han Mausoleum Administration

is now officially in operation.

Awesome!

We've all been in the cultural heritage field for years,

weathering

the ups and downs together.

Now, with upgraded facilities

and formal recognition,

no more struggling with limited resources.

Public attention and support are growing,

and our work in cultural preservation

has officially entered a brand-new era.

Everyone must forge ahead

and not fail our mission.

Bravo!

Captain Qi, Chief Wu,

the National Cultural Relics Crime Information Center has reported

two individuals with prior criminal records

who are closely associated with Liu Qiang.

What are their names?

One is Wang Jinfa,

and the other is Hu Qingye.

I suspect these two

are key members of Uncle's gang.

Alright.

Hey,

you take Wang Jinfa,

and I'll handle Hu Qingye.

Okay.

Mr. Mu Jianhui

is a well-known private collector here in Qinchuan.

[Mu Jianhui's Personal Collection Donation]

His generous contribution

has significantly enriched

the Mingde Museum's holdings.

In the future,

these pieces will be proudly showcased

in the Mingde Museum's exhibitions,

adding brilliance and depth to the collection.

I

have a deep connection with the Mingde Museum.

My father was born here.

Today,

by donating my treasured collection,

I hope these pieces can finally return home.

Mr. Mu has always held a deep affection for our museum.

In recognition of

his generous contributions,

the board has officially

appointed Mr. Mu Jianhui as a permanent board member.

Director Mu,

from now on, this will be your office.

This is the director's office.

I don't think it's quite appropriate

for me to be working here.

Why not?

Before long,

we'll all be calling you Director Mu.

It's still too early for that.

Don't be so modest. It's just a matter of time.

Take a look around.

If anything's missing,

let me know and I'll have someone fix it.

Alright, I'll take a look.

Okay, take your time.

-Thank you. -I'm leaving.

No need to see me out.

Dad.

Is this where you lived when you were young?

Yes.

Can we go back there?

We can't.

I am Mr. Mu Jianhui's attorney.

He has personally entrusted me

to speak with you regarding the matter of child custody.

There's nothing to discuss.

I've already decided to file a lawsuit.

Have you found a lawyer?

Ms. Wen,

the best lawyer in Qinchuan is sitting right in front of you.

You don't need to scare me.

I'm not afraid of anything.

I'm not trying to scare you.

I just want to give you a few reminders

based on my professional expertise.

When Liang was still breastfeeding,

you abandoned him and ran off.

At the very least, that's called being irresponsible;

at worst,

it's abandonment.

One is a mother who abandoned her child and ran off.

The other is a father with financial stability

who has devoted everything to the child.

Who do you think the court will grant custody to?

Mr. Mu has mentioned

that he and your husband were good friends.

He doesn't want to face you in court.

[Letter of Custody Waiver]

If you're willing to voluntarily give up custody

and no longer interfere in their family's life,

he's prepared to offer you 10 million yuan

as a one-time payment.

Even if I know I'll lose,

I'm still suing.

Then we'll see you in court.

That won't be necessary.

Shulan.

Liang,

call her Mom.

Mom.

He's usually very easy to take care of.

This bag has everything he normally uses.

Liang.

Attorney Chen.

Mr. Mu.

How did the negotiation go?

Your wife brought the child here.

What do you mean?

She gave the child back to Wen Wen.

Jianhui.

Shulan,

why did you give the child to her?

No particular reason.

It was just time to do the right thing.

Are you out of your mind?

That's my child.

It's our child.

Where are you?

I'm at the watch factory dormitory

where we used to live.

What are you doing there?

Jianhui,

turn back.

It's not too late.

I've contacted the police

and turned myself in.

Shulan.

Shulan.

What kind of life I've been living all these years?

Treated like a dog, looked down on by everyone,

risking my life,

pushing through one hurdle after another—

and now, I've finally made it.

You...

Come take a look at the Mingde Museum.

This is my family's legacy.

And soon, it'll be back in my hands.

Please don't do anything reckless.

Shulan.

You're the one who's been acting foolish all these years.

Jianhui,

it's time to wake up.

Captain Qi, Captain Yang,

after a preliminary examination,

it has been confirmed

to be a Han Dynasty bronze chime bell.

I'll arrange for Liang to identify

Mu Jianhui as soon as possible.

-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.

Captain Qi, there's no one in the office.

Captain Qi, no one's here.

No one's here.

Mr. Guo.

Mr. Guo.

Have you seen Fang Kun?

-No. -No.

It's quite an exciting discovery, isn't it?

Our newspaper

would like to interview you later.

Would that be alright?

-Ms. Luo. -Sure.

-Ms. Luo. -You can get on with your work first.

Okay.

Where's Fang Kun?

He said he had to stay at the base to keep watch.

What?

That good-for-nothing!

He's missing out on such a golden chance?

Typical of him.

Where are you?

What's up?

What's wrong with you?

The press conference is about to start. Where are you?

I've already said I'm not going.

You and Captain Luo can represent us.

What?

Kun,

you're the main character today.

How can you not show up?

I'm not going.

It's too noisy.

The site is quiet.

Fine.

Suit yourself.

I'm hanging up.

He's not coming, is he?

Let's go in first.

[Major Archaeological Breakthrough in Qinzhou]

Distinguished guests,

members of the press,

[Yin Village Grand Tomb Confirmed as Zi Mausoleum]

welcome to

the press conference on the major archaeological discoveries in Qinzhou.

[Press Conference on Major Archaeological Breakthrough in Qinzhou]

I am Yan Mengren, Deputy Chief

of the Qinzhou Provincial Cultural Heritage Bureau.

Here,

on behalf of the Provincial Cultural Heritage Bureau,

I'm honored to announce to everyone here

that the Yin Village grand tomb

in Qinchuan

has officially been confirmed

as the Zi Mausoleum of Emperor Taizong of Han.

[By the Zishui River, winter has passed;]

[On the Bailu Plain, the snow has just cleared.]

[There will be no more mistakes.]

The archaeological work on the Zi Mausoleum

began in the 1960s.

Back then,

a small burial pit

from Empress Dowager Bo's South Mausoleum, located to the east of Yin Village,

was excavated in a rescue operation.

In the 1980s, two veteran archaeologists

conducted systematic surveys

and measurements

of the 11 Western Han Mausoleums,

laying a solid foundation for the future archaeological research

of the Western Han Imperial Mausoleums.

After 2003,

researchers from

the Qinchuan Archaeological Research Institute

discovered the grand tomb in Yin Village,

along with surrounding outer burial pits,

stone enclosures, and other features during their exploration.

These findings

brought the relationship between the Dou Mausoleum, Phoenix Mountain,

and the Yin Village grand tomb

into the academic spotlight,

sparking discussions

about the exact location

of Emperor Taizong of Han's Zi Mausoleum.

May I ask,

will the main tomb of Zi Mausoleum continue to be excavated?

Under our country's cultural heritage policy,

the excavation of ancient imperial tombs

is generally not permitted.

Archaeology

is not treasure hunting.

We can't simply excavate every tomb we discover.

What we choose to excavate now

is based on current research needs.

This is a legacy we should leave to future generations.

When the technology is ready,

and when their research demands it,

then the time will be right for excavation.

Okay, thank you.

If I may add to what the director just said,

our top priority right now

is to protect these mausoleums and cultural relics.

Our archaeological team hopes that in the future,

we'll be able to build a site museum

on the Bailu Plain

-to showcase... -Director Yan.

And preserve the discoveries from the Zi Mausoleum...

Director Yan.

And Empress Dowager Bo's South Mausoleum.

It will also help more people

gain a deeper understanding of our Chinese culture.

Okay, thank you.

Then may I ask, have the stolen artifacts from the Zi Mausoleum been recovered?

Wait a moment.

I'll take this question.

The stolen artifacts from the Zi Mausoleum have been recovered one after another.

Bravo!

Bravo!

Mr. Fang,

are you familiar with this place?

The black pottery figurines were unearthed here.

Let me correct you.

The black pottery figurines were stolen from here.

You're right.

No one knows better than I do

how they were dug up

and sold overseas.

If it weren't for me,

how would foreigners

come to understand the rich history of Chinese culture?

Taking our ancestors' treasures

and selling them overseas,

then letting foreigners show them off,

yet acting like that's something to be proud of?

Don't be so harsh.

Without me, what would you be studying?

Even the probing shovel you use

was invented by tomb raiders.

That's right.

It was invented by tomb raiders.

But it's just a tool.

A knife is a harmless kitchen utensil when used for cooking,

but it becomes a weapon when used to harm.

We use probing shovels to uncover and verify history,

while you use them

to turn our intact Chinese culture

into something broken and unrecognizable.

If I hadn't brought the black pottery figurines to light,

you would never have known

where Zi Mausoleum was.

I am the herald.

I am the pioneer.

I am the first to discover Zi Mausoleum.

What are you laughing at?

I'm laughing at your ignorance and shamelessness.

Years ago, we already began

excavating the Western Han Imperial Mausoleums.

Even if the grand tomb in Yin Village hadn't been found,

our plan was to

explore Phoenix Mountain anyway,

and we would have still confirmed there were no remains beneath it.

Yin Village

and the Zi Mausoleum

would have come to light regardless.

Relying on you guys?

By the time you're done, it'll be too late.

You've poured countless man-hours and resources in,

yet still haven't completed a single tomb after all these years.

With just one shovel,

I cracked the whole thing.

Because you're in it for the money.

We're not.

For generations, archaeologists have worked tirelessly,

pursuing knowledge with care

and exploring with painstaking dedication.

Why?

Because what we're uncovering

is the very backbone of Chinese history,

the profound depth of Chinese civilization.

We can't afford to be careless, not even a little.

You've destroyed countless cultural relics,

yet you still call yourself a herald

and a pioneer.

You're not ashamed but proud of it.

It's utterly ridiculous.

Mu Jianhui,

you're under arrest.

Shulan,

I've implicated you.

I'll wait for you to come back, Jianhui.

Who are you?

Police!

What are you doing?

What's your name?

Hu Qingye.

making it accessible to everyone,

and sharing it with the world.

Striking the ground to mend the tapestry of history—

that's the true meaning of archaeology.
