[Melody of Golden Age]

00:01:45,320 --> 00:01:55,480
[The ad is aired at this period of time]

00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,000
[Episode 6]
4
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:21,480
Well, people
5
00:02:21,640 --> 00:02:22,760
can't always rely
6
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:24,480
on others to lend a hand
7
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:26,520
It's better to do it yourself
8
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,080
when you can
9
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:37,200
The servants of Yan
10
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:42,240
Miss Yan
11
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:43,760
The master asked me to remind you
12
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,240
Three days have already passed
13
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,400
As for the return day
14
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:48,880
You said you would be back tomorrow
15
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,960
This time you can't change your mind
16
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:51,960
Alright
17
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:53,920
I know
18
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,040
Yan Xing
19
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,240
The entire Xiang'an City is talking
20
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,800
about the close relationship between you two
21
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,400
It's shining on my face
22
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:17,200
Beautiful
23
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:18,400
Really beautiful
24
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:21,960
Delicious
25
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:26,200
Beautiful
26
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:28,440
Really beautiful
27
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:32,400
Yan Xing
28
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,400
You finally came back
29
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:35,600
It's been such a long time
30
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:36,480
Why are you back alone?
31
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:38,040
Where's your husband?
32
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:38,880
He...
33
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,240
Something urgent at the Internal Affairs
34
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:41,200
A critical case
35
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:42,920
Can the case
36
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,440
be more important than your matters?
37
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:45,600
How could a married woman
38
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,040
return home by herself?
39
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,600
He'll come after he's done
40
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:54,360
Right?
41
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:01,120
Fourth Sister
42
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:02,600
Why are you back today?
43
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,400
Are you here to see me?
44
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:08,480
My husband ordered a bracelet for me
45
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:09,480
It just arrived
46
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:10,760
I passed by to see you
47
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:20,480
Look at this bracelet
48
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:21,680
How beautiful it is
49
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,360
I fell in love with it at first sight
50
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,520
No matter what she'll say
51
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:27,160
Just ignore them
52
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,200
What's so good about it?
53
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:31,440
Just showing off
54
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:34,600
Why hasn't he come?
55
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:37,240
Well...
56
00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:38,280
Your sister-in-law brought
57
00:04:38,280 --> 00:04:40,120
many pastries and fruits
58
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,000
Let's all taste them
59
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:52,920
Come on, husband
60
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:55,760
Lord
61
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,400
Yan Xing is so suffered
62
00:05:00,280 --> 00:05:02,520
Others marry well and live well
63
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:03,560
Yan Xing
64
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,280
has to find a way for others to survive
65
00:05:14,840 --> 00:05:15,640
You...
66
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:17,640
What are you talking about?
67
00:05:18,280 --> 00:05:19,800
So it's because me, as her mother
68
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:20,760
I'm not good enough
69
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,280
Look at me
70
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:34,920
I can't do anything else
71
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,120
other than dressing up
72
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,240
I don't do any work on normal days
73
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,640
Yet my husband always praises me as a lucky star
74
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,880
I originally wanted a daughter
75
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:45,960
So sweet
76
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:47,480
Who knew
77
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,520
I gave birth to twin boys
78
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:50,440
You wouldn't know
79
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,120
how naughty they are
80
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:54,800
Yan Xing
81
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,080
You should stick closer to your Fourth Sister
82
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:58,720
To get more good luck
83
00:05:58,840 --> 00:06:00,680
Don't just focus on duties all day
84
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,600
You shouldn't be running around everywhere
85
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:03,400
Exactly
86
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:03,920
Sixth Sister
87
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:05,120
You should stop running errands
88
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:06,000
at the Ministry of Justice
89
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:07,240
Let me tell you
90
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:08,480
What is the way
91
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,080
for a woman to change her life?
92
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,480
Manage the Shen's residence well
93
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:20,240
Fifth Brother
94
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,560
I heard from my colleagues that
95
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:23,440
the last time
96
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,200
you were patrolling at Yanhua Street,
97
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,640
I saw you drinking with some girls
98
00:06:28,280 --> 00:06:29,840
and running all over the room
99
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,240
with girls
100
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:32,560
Nonsense
101
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,600
How dare you accuse me
102
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:37,520
You're the most most unreliable person
103
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:38,240
in the family
104
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,000
Look at you, being so sarcastic
105
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:40,520
Tell me
106
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:41,800
Where's your femininity?
107
00:06:41,840 --> 00:06:43,480
Am I being sarcastic?
108
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,200
If I were your husband,
109
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:46,240
I wouldn't wanna see you
110
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:47,280
even if I'd go out to play
111
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:48,200
What are you talking about?
112
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:48,960
Enough
113
00:08:44,680 --> 00:08:45,480
Father-in-law
114
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:50,560
Listening to Yan Xing
115
00:08:51,039 --> 00:08:52,919
you usually enjoy tea
116
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,440
This is a porcelain cup
117
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:06,360
It's from the Yue Kiln
118
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,000
This is the imperial gift of Purple Bamboo Tea
119
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:14,160
It's too precious
120
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:15,600
Too precious
121
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,360
It's a fortunate to have Yan Xing
122
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:21,480
Even the Prince Ying said,
123
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:25,640
I married a good wife
124
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:28,600
Prince Ying
125
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,640
Pan Yanzhi
126
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:02,320
Haven't his calligraphy and paintings
127
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:03,880
already disappeared?
128
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:05,480
It's a copy version
129
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:07,640
A few years ago,
130
00:10:07,680 --> 00:10:09,920
I happened to get a piece of Pan Yanzhi's work
131
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,840
So I studied it for a while out of interest
132
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,280
Even you find it unbelievable,
133
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,280
but it truly is lifelike
134
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,840
It seems you learned this skill of imitating handwriting
135
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,400
from Father-in-law
136
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:24,920
I'm just
137
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:26,400
scratching the surface
138
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:27,720
But
139
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:28,720
under the whole world,
140
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:29,600
there's no one whose handwriting
141
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:30,840
my father couldn't copy
142
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:35,360
Just for practicing
143
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,080
Not worth mentioning
144
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,120
Son-in-law, come here quickly
145
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,160
Let's have a meal together
146
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,120
Come here
147
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:48,000
Let's eat
148
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:48,680
Father
149
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:50,000
There are still some matters to attend
150
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:51,360
when going back
151
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:56,920
Since my father-in-law asked
152
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,000
naturally, we'll stay for the meal
153
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:04,480
It's just that later
154
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:05,760
we have to go back early
155
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:10,720
There are still matters to attend to
156
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:13,640
Got it
157
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:14,880
We got it
158
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:03,240
Yan Xing
159
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,160
Father sees that you're doing well now
160
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,440
I'm really delighted
161
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:09,920
It's just that
162
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:12,760
Has PM Zhang come to see you?
163
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,360
PM Zhang has hinted several times
164
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,320
His intentions are clear
165
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:20,080
The quota for the assignment to Xichen
166
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:21,280
has not been finalized yet
167
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,800
If he fails to handle this well
168
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:25,200
Then...
169
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:27,760
On PM Zhang's side
170
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:29,320
I'll give him an explanation
171
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,560
The feathers of the pigeon are soft
172
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:06,760
There are many fallen feathers in the cage
173
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:09,440
This...
174
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,280
Yaya, keep quiet
175
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:25,440
Grand Minister
176
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:28,600
Grand Minister
177
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:39,600
Report to Grand Minister
178
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,040
Someone has gone to the pigeon cage
179
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:41,760
Who's that?
180
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:42,720
It's...
181
00:13:43,560 --> 00:13:44,280
Madam
182
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,120
She has made a choice
183
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:15,040
Young Master
184
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:16,680
The curtains you asked me
185
00:14:16,680 --> 00:14:18,040
to prepare some days ago
186
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:19,640
are ready
187
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:29,560
This is a specially made fabric
188
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:31,560
in Xichen
189
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,880
It can effectively block out light
190
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:35,760
The Young Master
191
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:37,240
specially asked me to...
192
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:48,640
For knife practice
193
00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:58,440
Just right
194
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:14,400
Wasteful
195
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,440
You should really change
196
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,000
your bad temper
197
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,120
Or, who'll be willing to serve you?
198
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:27,720
When in Yan's Mansion
199
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:28,960
who swore solemnly
200
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:35,760
to serve me well
201
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,120
You avoid me like this
202
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,120
How can you serve me well?
203
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,600
Do you really want me to serve you?
204
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:22,800
We're already married
205
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,240
Even if something happens
206
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,040
No one will gossip about it
207
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:33,600
Am I afraid of gossip?
208
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:39,480
It's only natural
209
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:42,160
for a wife to serve her husband
210
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:47,400
It's okay to serve
211
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:49,840
I'm not even afraid of it
212
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:04,960
You smell so good
213
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:06,320
Do you wanna smell too?
214
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:07,480
See if I smell good
215
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,160
You wanna compete with me?
216
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:55,720
Someone
217
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:57,480
Light up the lights
218
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,280
over there near Madam
219
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:14,560
Grand Minister
220
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:15,840
There's trouble at Ximing Temple
221
00:18:29,360 --> 00:18:30,560
The staff at the Internal Affairs are enough
222
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:31,480
Grand Minister
223
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:32,840
Go back to the Ministry of Justice
224
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:35,400
I...
225
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,200
Do I really have to follow you guys?
226
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:39,120
If you're that capable,
227
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:40,840
don't come back and ask me to investigate
228
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:01,120
Neat handwriting
229
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:03,040
Exceptional penmanship
230
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:04,280
These blood characters
231
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,080
appear out of thin air on the wall
232
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:18,880
Not the real blood
233
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:20,640
It's a special kind of stone material
234
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,520
made with cinnabar ink
235
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:24,240
It doesn't show color on the wall initially
236
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,000
It'll reveal a blood color
237
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:27,400
after being washed by rainwater
238
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,240
The killer had already written it
239
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:30,720
Just waiting for the rain last night
240
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:32,880
There is blood
241
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:33,800
on the statue in the main hall
242
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:35,920
Why did the killer do this?
243
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,000
He is challenging us
244
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:47,560
The gods are angry
245
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:48,640
Hence, the blood sheds
246
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:49,480
I heard that
247
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:50,600
when the gods shed tears of blood
248
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,000
it is a sign of the gods' sorrow for this world
249
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:54,960
It is a wake-up call for us
250
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:32,800
I'm sorry
251
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:33,520
I didn't notice it
252
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:34,440
I didn't see
253
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:43,880
Yan Xing
254
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:45,320
Our Ministry of Justice
255
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:46,640
can't do without you
256
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:48,120
You have no idea
257
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:49,400
The ground at our Ministry of Justice
258
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,960
is no longer as bright as before
259
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:03,040
My lord
260
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:05,320
Morning, lord
261
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:12,240
Isn't this Lady Grand Minister?
262
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,280
Why is she cleaning the floor?
263
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:15,800
Exactly
264
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:17,560
I can't afford it
265
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,400
It's not very clean here
266
00:21:34,120 --> 00:21:35,360
Wash the cloth
267
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:36,600
Wash it and then wipe it
268
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:41,760
My lord, your belt please
269
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:42,640
Belt fell off
270
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:43,600
The belt
271
00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:58,600
Are you two arguing?
272
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:01,440
No
273
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:02,560
No
274
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:03,840
If not, then why did you
275
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:04,960
suddenly come back?
276
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:08,480
Tell me
277
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:10,160
What have you done again?
278
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:15,200
You've gained weight again
279
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:16,640
I need to practice more
280
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,520
I became a spy
281
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,200
You are risking your life
282
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:31,480
You are risking your life
283
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:33,040
I heard that
284
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:34,880
someone sneaked into the Shen's Resident
285
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:36,400
because they became a spy
286
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:37,360
Overnight
287
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,200
not only were there no remains
288
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:40,760
but the entire family...
289
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,240
The whole family was gone
290
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:47,520
Moreover
291
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:48,920
In the middle of the night
292
00:22:49,120 --> 00:22:50,240
people saw
293
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,360
them being taken by the ghostly officials
294
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:53,880
into the Yama Palace
295
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:55,880
That's a complete annihilation
296
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:57,760
You've got some guts
297
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:00,640
This's...
298
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,080
This's very complicated
299
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:07,440
Right
300
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:08,880
I asked you to find Brother Xu
301
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:09,880
How's it going?
302
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:10,800
Don't worry
303
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:11,920
Lord Xu has arranged someone
304
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:12,800
to investigate
305
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:14,360
My lord
306
00:23:14,360 --> 00:23:15,280
I'll go over
307
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:16,600
It's okay
308
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:17,680
Yan Xing
309
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,360
I forgot to tell you something
310
00:23:20,360 --> 00:23:22,160
Someone saw your master
311
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:23,120
He returned from his travels
312
00:23:23,120 --> 00:23:24,280
But as soon as he entered the city gate,
313
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:25,880
he was taken away
314
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:26,840
by the Internal Affairs
315
00:23:27,180 --> 00:23:27,840
What?
316
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:44,640
Ask the Grand Minister to come out
317
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:46,200
Shen Du
318
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:48,000
Shen Du
319
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:53,360
Shen Du
320
00:23:53,360 --> 00:23:54,040
The Grand Minister is busy
321
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:54,720
You can't see him now
322
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:56,240
I am the wife of Grand Minister
323
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:57,240
How dare you stop me?
324
00:23:58,640 --> 00:23:59,440
Shen Du
325
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:00,360
Come out
326
00:24:00,360 --> 00:24:01,280
Get out
327
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:02,520
Shen Du
328
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,120
Just bring it on
329
00:24:04,120 --> 00:24:05,360
Why did you arrest my master?
330
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,200
Don't think too highly of yourself
331
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,440
You overestimate yourself
332
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:13,680
Release my master
333
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:14,480
Shen Du
334
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:16,240
Let my master go
335
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:18,080
-Release my master -Yan Xing
336
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:21,440
Master
337
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:39,160
Look at you
338
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:40,720
You're already married,
339
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,160
yet you're still so impulsive
340
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,080
Master
341
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:46,920
Drink less in the future
342
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:48,480
Especially do not drink randomly
343
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:49,760
given by others
344
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:52,080
My disciple
345
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:53,360
has a straightforward character
346
00:24:53,360 --> 00:24:55,240
Please forgive her, Grand Minister
347
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:56,440
I know
348
00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:58,160
What do you know?
349
00:24:58,280 --> 00:24:58,880
I...
350
00:25:04,360 --> 00:25:05,320
Stop playing
351
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:06,400
Tell me
352
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,320
What do you wanna ask me?
353
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:11,960
I heard Master Chen developed
354
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:13,040
a unique cinnabar
355
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:14,400
that is invisible when used,
356
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:15,760
but appears when in contact with water
357
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:16,520
That's correct
358
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:17,600
It was originally developed
359
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,040
to prevent the decay of corpses
360
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,200
I wonder if this special cinnabar
361
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,280
belongs exclusively to Master Chen
362
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,040
Before I retired,
363
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:27,400
I gave this formula
364
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,480
to a few friends' servants
365
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:30,760
to use as insect repellent
366
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,560
It worked very well
367
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,560
Please tell me who they were
368
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:36,640
I know
369
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,360
Why is there such a difference
370
00:25:39,360 --> 00:25:40,560
between the time the deceased went missing
371
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:41,640
and the time of death during the autopsy?
372
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:44,280
To delay decay
373
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:45,440
and repel insects
374
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:49,320
That's right, it's cinnabar
375
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:51,520
The body is surrounded by herbs
376
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:52,320
I originally thought
377
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,100
to be used to mask the smell of the corpse
378
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:55,720
Actually, it was mixed with
379
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,160
a special preservative cinnabar
380
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:58,080
So the process
381
00:25:58,080 --> 00:25:59,000
of determining the time of death
382
00:25:59,000 --> 00:25:59,960
was inaccurate
383
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,280
Master
384
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:10,040
I wonder if Master Chen
385
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:10,800
can deduce
386
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:12,160
the actual time of death
387
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:14,680
Look at you
388
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,560
You're indeed relying on me
389
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:18,880
Master
390
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,600
The case of injustice needs to be solved
391
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:21,920
Could you please assist
392
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:22,880
and show your skill?
393
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:24,800
In this round
394
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:26,440
My master wins
395
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:29,080
We win
396
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:30,760
We win
397
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:33,520
Then let's go
398
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,040
-Take me to the morgue -Let's go
399
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,720
-Morgue -Please slow down
400
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,040
My master estimated
401
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:53,960
the true time of the deceased
402
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,560
through the degree of preservation
403
00:26:57,120 --> 00:26:58,320
Early spring of the fourth year of Shengli
404
00:26:58,320 --> 00:26:59,560
Midsummer of the fourth year of Shengli
405
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:00,920
March of the fifth year of Shengli
406
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:02,160
June of the sixth year of Shengli
407
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:03,560
Middle of August of the sixth year of Shengli
408
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,360
Can't the range be narrowed further?
409
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:08,920
It seems
410
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:10,400
there's no need for that now
411
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,280
In the stomach of the male deceased
412
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,760
Based on the decomposition of the body seen before
413
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:21,000
Even if
414
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:22,640
the deceased ate before being killed
415
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:23,920
what was in the stomach
416
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:25,000
should have decayed along
417
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:26,200
with the body
418
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:28,800
I was too hasty
419
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,280
Forensics should not be preconceived
420
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,240
The more bizarre and horrifying the scene
421
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,600
the more we need to proceed step by step
422
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:43,720
Key evidence
423
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,040
often lies in some
424
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,840
seemingly insignificant details
425
00:27:58,360 --> 00:27:59,160
Sunflower seeds
426
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:02,080
Exactly
427
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:06,800
Sunflower seeds only
428
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:07,800
digest and excrete
429
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:09,080
through intestinal peristalsis
430
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:10,080
when people are alive
431
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:11,040
And it won't take a day
432
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:12,400
for them to pass through
433
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,080
These deceased all have sunflower seeds in their stomachs
434
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:16,960
indicating they were killed
435
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:18,120
shortly after eating sunflower seeds
436
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:22,480
What seems logical
437
00:28:22,580 --> 00:28:24,520
isn't necessarily true
438
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,960
Sometimes even what you witness firsthand
439
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,200
may not be the truth
440
00:28:30,360 --> 00:28:33,160
It's very likely someone used tricks
441
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,640
to make you think that's the truth
442
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:38,920
I've learned
443
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:39,720
What a coincidence
444
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:41,520
These male deceased individuals
445
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,080
all ate sunflower seeds before dying
446
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,000
When too many coincidences align
447
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,200
it's no longer just a coincidence
448
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:55,000
These sunflower seeds
449
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:56,920
are not from ordinary sunflowers
450
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:58,520
They're from Xichen's cucumber
451
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:00,080
The tribute Xichen's cucumber
452
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:01,560
That's something only found in the palace
453
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:02,200
No
454
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:04,160
There's another occasion
455
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:05,880
These noble young men
456
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:07,600
had the chance to eat Xichen's cucumbers
457
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,280
Kaiyang Day
458
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:14,240
The date of the annual Kaiyang Day
459
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:15,000
is determined by the Astronomical Bureau
460
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:16,360
observing the stars at night
461
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:17,960
funded by the government
462
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:18,920
The Empress Dowager
463
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:20,880
will also reward treasures in the palace
464
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:22,880
But the date changes every year
465
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,280
The next Kaiyang Day is...
466
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:27,440
Three days later
467
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:37,040
Grand Minister
468
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,560
The Empress Dowager is still in a meeting
469
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,280
Please wait patiently
470
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:00,080
The Buddha statue sheds tears of blood
471
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:01,480
Rumors abound
472
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,040
The Empress Dowager is suffering from a headache
473
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:06,000
Even Prince Ying
474
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,360
has been implicated and confined
475
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:13,440
Decree of the Empress Dowager
476
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:19,800
The situation is critical now
477
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:20,960
Within five days
478
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:22,880
if the case remains unsolved
479
00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:25,720
hand over to the Imperial Court of Justice
480
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:29,480
Thanks for the imperial decree
481
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:40,800
Prime Minister doesn't need to
482
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:41,920
be so polite
483
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:43,360
every time you asked me
484
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,840
I've heard there are strange occurrences at Ximing Temple
485
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:48,520
It's man-made
486
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,680
This nursery rhyme is just the beginning
487
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:52,120
The situation is escalating
488
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,880
Prince Xian's situation is worrying
489
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,560
I heard Prince Ying has also been confined
490
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:58,720
The Empress Dowager
491
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:00,840
has reprimanded all her children
492
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:02,320
I dare ask
493
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:03,560
whether the blood tears of the Buddha statue
494
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,040
are related to you, Prime Minister
495
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:05,880
How dare you
496
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:14,400
This's too abrupt
497
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:16,040
I just wanna uncover
498
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:17,160
the truth sooner
499
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:18,320
to share worries for Prime Minister
500
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,360
This has nothing to do with me
501
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:26,320
But...
502
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:28,280
How is the investigation
503
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:29,200
I assigned you going?
504
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:31,680
Not yet complete
505
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,240
You dare mock me
506
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:34,160
Aren't you afraid
507
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:35,920
that I'd end your family's career?
508
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:37,760
Please allow me to explain
509
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:39,920
I was instructed to check the pigeon cage
510
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:41,080
to determine
511
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:41,720
the Empress Dowager's attitude
512
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:43,240
towards Prince Xian
513
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:45,160
But through my investigation,
514
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:46,280
you're overly concerned
515
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:49,120
How can you be sure?
516
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:50,560
Aside from the pigeon cage
517
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,080
the increased communication routes
518
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:53,080
of the Internal Affairs suddenly
519
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:53,840
with many false
520
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:55,320
returns along the way
521
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,720
to conceal the true path
522
00:31:57,800 --> 00:31:58,560
Furthermore,
523
00:31:58,560 --> 00:31:59,600
number of troops from the Internal Affairs
524
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:00,720
have been sent out of the city
525
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:02,320
It's likely to ensure
526
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:03,640
Prince Xian's safety along the way
527
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:05,200
If they intended harm,
528
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:06,720
why bother doing all these?
529
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,120
It seems right
530
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:10,600
It's simply
531
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:11,440
your personal judgment
532
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:12,780
Isn't it your personal judgement
533
00:32:13,220 --> 00:32:15,080
for Prince Xian's risk?
534
00:32:22,020 --> 00:32:23,360
For now, I'll trust you
535
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:24,320
However, this matter
536
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:26,480
will soon have a conclusion
537
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:27,960
Please rest assured
538
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:29,440
I'll soon find out
539
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:30,880
the true mastermind behind all this
540
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:32,320
That's good
541
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,000
The transfer order to the frontier desert
542
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:36,480
will be issued soon
543
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,120
Time left for you and Dr. Yan
544
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:40,480
is limited
545
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:00,640
Empress Dowager
546
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:04,280
If you don't make a move,
547
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:07,200
I'll win this match
548
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:10,440
Alright
549
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:13,320
In that case,
550
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,360
I'll ask for your reward
551
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:20,400
Sure, what do you want?
552
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,120
The Kaiyang grand event
553
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,000
is under the care of the Empress Dowager
554
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:28,600
Bao Huan will be in charge
555
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,600
So, can Bao Huan decide
556
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:34,680
who to invite?
557
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,040
In past grand events,
558
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,440
guests would recite poems, sing songs,
559
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:44,720
perform music
560
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:47,080
This time,
561
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:48,640
can we invite some
562
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:50,720
true talents and beauties?
563
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:56,040
Invite whoever you want
564
00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:58,160
Is that so?
565
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,920
Have you set your eyes on someone?
566
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:06,480
Thank you
567
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:08,360
Empress Dowager
568
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:16,400
Minister Xu
569
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:18,960
This is the list you gave me
570
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:20,200
I have included all
571
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:21,600
the invited guests
572
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:23,920
Thank you, Lord Zhang, for your help
573
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:24,800
You're welcome
574
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:28,200
I'll need your assistance in the future
575
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:32,920
With this,
576
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:34,600
those who know the cinnabar formula
577
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:36,600
have already been included
578
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:37,920
in the Kaiyang grand event's guest list
579
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,120
The murderer is among them
580
00:34:45,720 --> 00:34:48,400
It's not easy
581
00:34:48,720 --> 00:34:50,319
to find the killer among these people
582
00:34:50,720 --> 00:34:51,560
Rather than that,
583
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:53,560
let the killer come to us willingly
584
00:34:53,759 --> 00:34:54,759
That way, we save ourselves
585
00:34:54,759 --> 00:34:55,680
a lot of trouble
586
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:57,560
The murdered women
587
00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:59,560
were all dressed similarly
588
00:35:00,240 --> 00:35:01,279
And they were skilled
589
00:35:01,279 --> 00:35:02,600
pipa players
590
00:35:04,359 --> 00:35:06,680
If I dress like them
591
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:08,560
to attract the killer's attention,
592
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,319
the killer will come after me
593
00:35:10,319 --> 00:35:10,960
Then,
594
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:12,400
you can capture them on the spot
595
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:13,120
No way
596
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:14,880
It's too risky
597
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:16,040
You can't go
598
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:17,160
I...
599
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,360
Go to Tongming Hall to find one
600
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:21,240
And make her same as the target
601
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:22,240
Yes
602
00:35:22,240 --> 00:35:22,960
No way
603
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:26,240
The musicians at Tongming Hall
604
00:35:26,240 --> 00:35:27,640
are commoners
605
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:28,440
How can we risk
606
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:29,840
their lives?
607
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:30,640
Besides,
608
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:31,600
the killer's methods
609
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:32,600
are cruel
610
00:35:32,720 --> 00:35:33,800
If anything goes wrong,
611
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:35,200
how can you explain to their families?
612
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:36,480
Now that you know the danger
613
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:38,880
If you encounter danger
614
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:40,760
How should I explain to the Empress Dowager
615
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,400
PM Zhang and Dr. Yan?
616
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:01,840
I have been insisting on
617
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:03,920
investigating this case thoroughly
618
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:05,600
If I hadn't intervened
619
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,120
It would have been closed long ago
620
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,280
Now we're just one step away
621
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,000
I should see it through to the end
622
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:12,840
In official investigation
623
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:14,800
Naturally, it is for me to take risks
624
00:36:16,240 --> 00:36:17,720
Let me use the lives of ordinary people,
625
00:36:17,720 --> 00:36:18,480
to take risks
626
00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:19,320
I cannot do it
627
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:21,480
Even if you wanna do it,
628
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:23,560
see if you are qualified
629
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:27,640
You need to play the pipa skillfully
630
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:28,960
Can you?
631
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:23,120
Madam, I didn't expect you
632
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:24,440
to be so talented
633
00:37:28,240 --> 00:37:29,040
How about it?
634
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:30,560
Does it count as skilled?
635
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,480
It's truly exquisite
636
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:41,280
Continue playing
637
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:50,440
I'm tired
638
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:51,800
Let's call it a day today
639
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:53,640
You're tired or you can't even play?
640
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:57,240
By that time,
641
00:37:57,240 --> 00:37:59,040
you'll perform at the Kaiyang festival
642
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:00,800
Are you only planning
643
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:02,360
to play these few pieces?
644
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,040
I didn't prepare well
645
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:26,080
Just talking as you go
646
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:26,960
Let me tell you
647
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:27,960
about a few key points
648
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:30,080
First, when you play,
649
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:32,560
this outfit is not suitable
650
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:34,360
You should wear
651
00:38:34,720 --> 00:38:35,720
something lighter
652
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,160
It doesn't have to be like this
653
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:42,600
The focus is not on
654
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:45,120
how good your melody and rhythm are
655
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,080
But on creating the right atmosphere
656
00:38:49,240 --> 00:38:50,240
Pay attention
657
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:52,440
You know the posture
658
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:53,360
The initial one
659
00:38:58,120 --> 00:38:59,000
Leg extension
660
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:02,600
Interweaving
661
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:03,640
Yes
662
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:04,880
Take it slow
663
00:39:05,240 --> 00:39:06,200
Rotate
664
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:08,080
Start turning
665
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:08,920
Flutter
666
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:11,200
Look, the skirt is flying
667
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:13,920
The skirt is flying
668
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:15,120
Elegant
669
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:16,440
Mom
670
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:19,640
Can you play sitting down?
671
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:21,040
You keep moving
672
00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:22,960
I can't see your hand movements clearly
673
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:25,960
Hand movements are not important
674
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:28,480
What comes next is important
675
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:29,280
Pay attention
676
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,320
Raise your hand above your head
677
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,640
Come down from behind the head
678
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:45,720
Your posture should be enchanting
679
00:39:45,720 --> 00:39:46,560
Show your face
680
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:47,960
Eyes
681
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:49,720
The allure of a woman
682
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:51,720
The key is the eyes
683
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:52,920
Look at my eyes
684
00:39:57,720 --> 00:39:58,480
Right
685
00:39:58,480 --> 00:39:59,760
Pay attention to this part
686
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:00,920
Rotate again
687
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:07,960
Shake your whole body
688
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:11,440
Normally
689
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,200
It should have
690
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,120
fallen to the ground by now
691
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:17,880
Mom...
692
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:20,160
You can dance later
693
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:21,080
You should sit down first
694
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,240
I just wanna seriously learn this piece
695
00:40:24,720 --> 00:40:26,080
It's not about the number of pieces
696
00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:26,880
It's about the quality
697
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:30,920
I only know one piece
698
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:32,160
A true master
699
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:34,080
doesn't need a second piece
700
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:35,600
And your father
701
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,680
He never even made it
702
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:38,600
to the second piece
703
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:40,040
No, mom
704
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:43,360
What are you talking about?
705
00:40:44,240 --> 00:40:45,680
Just now, what I taught you
706
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:46,280
That...
707
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:47,800
After finishing the pipa piece
708
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,400
man couldn't control himself at all
709
00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:51,320
Mom
710
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:52,720
I just wanna
711
00:40:52,720 --> 00:40:53,960
learn a pipa piece seriously
712
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:55,400
It's for my investigation
713
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:57,440
What did you think it was?
714
00:40:59,720 --> 00:41:00,640
I thought
715
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:02,560
you wanted mother to teach you
716
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:03,800
about the joys of the boudoir,
717
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:05,040
and the pipa's soothing effect
718
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:09,000
No
719
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,000
Uncle
720
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:16,320
What is my mother
721
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:17,840
thinking about every day?
722
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:19,400
Is it because I'm married
723
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:20,680
that everything I think and do
724
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:21,960
has to revolve around
725
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:23,440
how to please my husband?
726
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:24,960
Your mother was sent to the theater
727
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:26,040
when she was young
728
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:27,320
At that time, the theater leader
729
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:28,320
taught us
730
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:30,480
to exercise extreme patience,
731
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:32,720
to suppress oneself,
732
00:41:33,720 --> 00:41:34,920
to entertain with voice and appearance
733
00:41:35,240 --> 00:41:37,080
It was your father
734
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,880
finally gave her a place to settle
735
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:43,560
So in your mother's eyes,
736
00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:45,560
the best outcome
737
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:47,720
for her daughter
738
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:50,600
is to find a good man to be with
739
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:54,400
According to her standards,
740
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:55,560
I'm definitely not
741
00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:56,840
someone with a good future
742
00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:59,120
I married to someone unworthy
743
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:01,120
Your mom has conveyed to me multiple times
744
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:02,440
to be careful in the palace,
745
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:04,320
to ensure your well-being,
746
00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:07,040
Never let that...
747
00:42:10,720 --> 00:42:11,800
your husband,
748
00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:13,720
endanger your life
749
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:15,960
But now that you are safe,
750
00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:17,440
she can rest assured
751
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:20,300
Yet she constantly thinks
752
00:42:20,300 --> 00:42:23,760
how to secure your position
753
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:26,000
She worries needlessly
754
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:27,680
The position as the lady
755
00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:29,880
Whoever wants it can have it
756
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:32,960
I don't need protection from men
757
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:35,400
I just hope
758
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,680
I can be a strong woman
759
00:42:40,020 --> 00:42:41,020
who can protect myself
760
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:43,280
and my family
761
00:42:43,620 --> 00:42:44,460
Me, Yan Xing
762
00:42:44,460 --> 00:42:45,780
was born in a country
763
00:42:45,780 --> 00:42:47,720
that even female can be officials
764
00:42:47,720 --> 00:42:49,320
I don't need to serve with my look?
765
00:42:49,720 --> 00:42:51,240
But now
766
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,280
I really need a
767
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:55,960
performance on the pipa
768
00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,240
that can captivate all the audience
769
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:02,320
You just said
770
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:05,280
for investigation
771
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:07,520
I need to
772
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:09,120
perform a pipa piece
773
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:10,440
on the stage of the Liushang Tavern
774
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:12,560
to lure the snake out of its hole
