Yesterday Sun Pei was fed a hallucinatory
drug by someone at Yun Shao restaurant.

00:01:36,300 --> 00:01:37,930
He was completely humiliated.

3
00:01:38,180 --> 00:01:40,090
And was severely injured by a carriage.

00:01:40,780 --> 00:01:42,970
Someone brought you your favorite, osmanthus biscuits.

5
00:01:43,660 --> 00:01:44,530
Also...

6
00:01:44,740 --> 00:01:47,450
even I do not know when you started to like grapes.

7
00:01:49,580 --> 00:01:51,330
Cousin, you support me.

8

If you need it, I can keep you here forever.

9
00:01:58,660 --> 00:02:00,130
But as your brother I would like to advise you,

10
00:02:00,500 --> 00:02:03,890
as a woman you should be interested in hairpins.

11
00:02:04,100 --> 00:02:05,810
And not knives.

12

and the roasted goose in Yun Shao

15
00:02:14,220 --> 00:02:15,810
it was not you who paid for it.

16
00:02:16,740 --> 00:02:17,930
And this room...

17
00:02:18,620 --> 00:02:20,330
it's exactly as my room in Suzhou.

18
00:02:21,780 --> 00:02:23,490
You've never been to the ancillary building.

19
00:02:24,060 --> 00:02:26,530
How could you know the furniture there?

20
00:02:27,820 --> 00:02:28,450
Also...

21
00:02:29,220 --> 00:02:31,210
You persuade me to like hairpins.

22
00:02:32,180 --> 00:02:33,090
Cousin...

23
00:02:33,500 --> 00:02:35,210
You do not even know what I like,

24
00:02:35,980 --> 00:02:37,650
how could you buy grapes for me?

25
00:02:38,340 --> 00:02:40,170
As you know who paid for it,

26
00:02:40,500 --> 00:02:42,170
you should understand his feelings.

27
00:02:42,740 --> 00:02:44,410
He did not even ask what happened despite

28
00:02:44,540 --> 00:02:45,930
what happened.

29
00:02:46,300 --> 00:02:48,530
Instead he announced that you was his woman in public.

30
00:02:49,380 --> 00:02:51,490
And secretly punished those who hurt you.

31
00:02:51,860 --> 00:02:54,050
It is a shame to miss such a man who is so honorable

32
00:02:54,460 --> 00:02:55,890
and who trusts you so much.

Yan'er, do you not like him,

35
00:03:03,140 --> 00:03:04,770
or do you not dare to like him?

36
00:03:11,980 --> 00:03:13,410
I am not sure either.

00:12:22,020 --> 00:12:23,370
and she died a year ago.

168
00:12:23,980 --> 00:12:25,010
His second wife

169
00:12:25,340 --> 00:12:27,930
was Du Xing Yi of the previous Imperial secretary

170
00:12:28,300 --> 00:12:29,650
and died half a year ago.

171
00:12:30,220 --> 00:12:34,290
His first wife Xiang Yao passed away on the wedding night.

172
00:12:34,500 --> 00:12:35,690
And his second wife..

173
00:12:35,860 --> 00:12:38,250
passed away a month after the wedding.

174
00:12:39,540 --> 00:12:40,690
It is so strange.

175
00:12:43,940 --> 00:12:50,930
A man who has both looks and talent,
has money, has power,

176
00:12:51,140 --> 00:12:53,770
is a widower who killed his wives.*

177
00:12:54,380 --> 00:12:55,530
It's a shame.

178
00:12:56,060 --> 00:12:57,610
The sorrow of the Ghosts in Chang'an.

179
00:12:58,580 --> 00:13:00,810
In the future, he should be called the sorrow of the women of Chang'an.

180
00:13:01,740 --> 00:13:02,850
That is untrue.

181
00:13:02,980 --> 00:13:04,810
Although he is suspected to be incompatible with women,

182
00:13:05,100 --> 00:13:08,610
but he is still a popular candidate for a
husband within the female population.

183
00:13:08,620 --> 00:13:11,250
There are countless families who come and propose a marriage.

184
00:13:12,780 --> 00:13:13,770
Owner,

185
00:13:14,220 --> 00:13:14,930
look.

186
00:13:15,420 --> 00:13:17,570
That Miss Ran is arranging the skeleton of the goose again!

187
00:13:21,900 --> 00:13:23,250
You didn't give her just one leg right?

188
00:13:23,860 --> 00:13:25,090
How could I possibly dare?

189
00:13:25,340 --> 00:13:28,610
I would rather give her one more than less!

190
00:13:29,460 --> 00:13:30,970
Last time because of a goose leg,

191
00:13:31,340 --> 00:13:32,730
I offended her,

192
00:13:33,060 --> 00:13:36,610
she told Minister Xiao to slap me in the face
my cheeks still hurt from it.

193
00:13:36,740 --> 00:13:37,730
It is the same with me!

194
00:13:37,820 --> 00:13:39,650
Look at my mouth, it's still sore

195
00:13:40,100 --> 00:13:42,130
Don't worry, this time it will be fine!

196
00:13:43,580 --> 00:13:45,410
He is the sorrow of the ghosts!

197
00:13:45,900 --> 00:13:49,010
What woman will not be frightened by his bearing?

198
00:13:49,860 --> 00:13:52,090
After why did both his wives

199
00:13:52,220 --> 00:13:54,730
die from a chest pain?

200
00:13:55,340 --> 00:13:57,130
I think you all misunderstand Lord Xiao.

201
00:13:57,460 --> 00:14:00,290
Actually Lord Xiao has a gentle side too.

202
00:14:00,740 --> 00:14:02,170
The entire Chang'an knows that

203
00:14:02,300 --> 00:14:06,010
he loved and doted his second wife Du Xing Yi a lot.

204
00:14:07,340 --> 00:14:09,410
How did he dote on her?

205
00:14:10,460 --> 00:14:12,250
Du Xin Yi loves the fire crystal.

206
00:14:12,580 --> 00:14:15,490
Fire crystal? As big as a chicken egg
and as clear as a crystal?

207
00:14:15,620 --> 00:14:17,210
It is purely white in appearance.

208
00:14:17,460 --> 00:14:19,890
And in midday, it can burn anything in it’s wake.

209
00:14:20,180 --> 00:14:22,890
It is rarely seen,
I heard it comes Russia!

210
00:14:22,980 --> 00:14:23,930
That is right!

211
00:14:24,260 --> 00:14:27,570
It is difficult for even the members of the
Imperial Clan to get their hands on it.

212
00:14:27,900 --> 00:14:30,290
And in order to please Du Xin Yi Lord Xiao

213
00:14:30,540 --> 00:14:33,650
paid someone handsomely to visit Russia to look for that crystal!

214
00:14:34,380 --> 00:14:38,290
It seems Lord Xiao truly loves Du Xin Yi.

215
00:14:38,860 --> 00:14:39,770
Owner Jia!

216
00:14:40,580 --> 00:14:41,810
W-What is going on?

217
00:14:41,820 --> 00:14:42,690
I do not know.

218
00:14:47,020 --> 00:14:49,010
Miss, what is your instruction?

219
00:14:49,820 --> 00:14:51,090
There's something wrong with your goose!

220
00:14:51,140 --> 00:14:51,930
A problem?

221
00:14:52,700 --> 00:14:53,690
What problem?

222
00:14:53,980 --> 00:14:55,010
You look yourself!

223
00:14:57,660 --> 00:14:59,090
This is a complete goose!

224
00:14:59,380 --> 00:15:00,850
Only it has an extra leg!

225
00:15:02,260 --> 00:15:03,010
Compensate me!

226
00:15:04,780 --> 00:15:07,290
I have to compensate you even when I give you an extra one?

227
00:15:07,380 --> 00:15:09,850
I want a healthy complete goose

228
00:15:10,180 --> 00:15:12,730
Yet you gave me an unhealthy goose with 3 legs!

229
00:15:13,100 --> 00:15:14,810
Miss, it is not unwell!

230
00:15:15,100 --> 00:15:17,530
I gave you an extra one!
As a gift from the restaurant!

231
00:15:17,540 --> 00:15:18,250
It's free!

232
00:15:18,580 --> 00:15:20,770
How can you prove that this goose
was one you gave me,

233
00:15:20,980 --> 00:15:22,730
and that it didn't belong to this goose?

234
00:15:24,140 --> 00:15:26,050
Yan'er don't be unreasonable.

235
00:15:26,460 --> 00:15:28,130
Cousin, I am not being unreasonable,

236
00:15:28,140 --> 00:15:29,490
I am speaking the truth!

237
00:15:30,420 --> 00:15:32,890
Owner, last time you owed me a leg,

238
00:15:33,060 --> 00:15:34,810
this time you gave an extra one,

239
00:15:35,020 --> 00:15:37,850
do you not want to do business
as the Yun Shao entertainment venue?

240
00:15:39,260 --> 00:15:40,210
Please calm down.

241
00:15:40,820 --> 00:15:41,850
We will compensate you.

242
00:15:44,220 --> 00:15:45,690
Look, is this enough?

243
00:15:46,020 --> 00:15:46,850
Enough!

244
00:15:57,700 --> 00:15:59,330
They merely gave us a goose leg.

245
00:15:59,580 --> 00:16:01,450
Why is she so upset?

246
00:16:02,660 --> 00:16:04,250
She is not angry?

247
00:16:04,260 --> 00:16:05,370
She ate some vinegar.*

248
00:16:06,100 --> 00:16:06,970
Vinegar?

249
00:16:07,460 --> 00:16:08,690
We did not order any vinegar.

250
00:16:16,940 --> 00:16:20,690
How could Song'er like a girl who is a trickster, money grabbing woman?

251
00:16:21,700 --> 00:16:24,610
And secretly married her in Suzhou?

252
00:16:25,500 --> 00:16:28,570
I heard that this Miss Ran is extremely talented.

253
00:16:29,220 --> 00:16:32,330
She even assisted Song'er in solving cases by examining bodies.

254
00:16:32,420 --> 00:16:34,330
She is a rare sight.

255
00:16:35,340 --> 00:16:36,330
Elder sister-in-law,

256
00:16:36,540 --> 00:16:38,410
stop standing up for Song'er.

257
00:16:38,820 --> 00:16:42,250
A girl should remain at home
and take care of the come.

258
00:16:42,780 --> 00:16:43,810
What does she do?

259
00:16:44,140 --> 00:16:47,330
She goes and becomes an inferior medical examiner.

260
00:16:47,860 --> 00:16:49,930
It is a blemish on the reputation of the Song clan.

261
00:16:52,300 --> 00:16:55,850
Song'er must have his reasons for liking her.

262
00:16:55,980 --> 00:16:56,890
Mother!

263
00:16:57,260 --> 00:16:59,930
I fear Song'er must have been enthralled by her looks

264
00:17:00,180 --> 00:17:01,810
that is why he was enthralled by her for now.

265
00:17:02,300 --> 00:17:04,290
We should meet this girl.

266
00:17:05,300 --> 00:17:07,010
For a dratted jewel,

267
00:17:07,060 --> 00:17:08,570
he sends someone to Russia!

268
00:17:08,580 --> 00:17:09,570
Miss Ran.

269
00:17:14,140 --> 00:17:16,610
Miss Ran, the matriarch of the Xiao family invites you.

270
00:17:18,500 --> 00:17:22,170
[Xiao Manor]

271
00:17:30,380 --> 00:17:32,410
Without morals, honor, proper etiquette there will be no success.

272
00:17:32,620 --> 00:17:34,890
Do you know what that means?

273
00:17:35,020 --> 00:17:37,170
One must not allow arrogance to grow, nor indulge in one's desires.

274
00:17:37,300 --> 00:17:39,690
One must not be too greedy nor should they only live for happiness.*

275
00:17:40,140 --> 00:17:42,850
I know from one look that you come from a good background

276
00:17:43,020 --> 00:17:44,370
and from a noble lineage.

277
00:17:44,780 --> 00:17:46,450
You must have read the works of the wise.

278
00:17:46,780 --> 00:17:50,050
But why are you arrogant, indulge in extravagance,

279
00:17:50,220 --> 00:17:54,010
have few ambitions
and caring only about comfort?

280
00:17:54,420 --> 00:17:57,370
I only thought Miss Ran you only care about profit,

281
00:17:57,940 --> 00:18:00,850
I never expected that you would be so vulgar too.

282
00:18:00,940 --> 00:18:02,570
I should not be here.

283
00:18:03,460 --> 00:18:05,170
It was you who invited me.

284
00:18:05,700 --> 00:18:08,050
As you invited me, then I am a guest.

285
00:18:08,900 --> 00:18:10,490
But since I stepped foot in this place,

286
00:18:10,660 --> 00:18:12,490
you did not give me a proper look.

287
00:18:12,740 --> 00:18:15,010
Neither do you give me a seat or serve me tea.

288
00:18:15,660 --> 00:18:18,330
It was you who showed my disrespect first?

289
00:18:18,540 --> 00:18:21,570
Then you must know the reason why we invited you here today right?

290
00:18:23,580 --> 00:18:24,930
Because of that fish?

291
00:18:25,940 --> 00:18:26,770
What fish?

292
00:18:27,340 --> 00:18:28,210
Xiao Song.

293
00:18:28,700 --> 00:18:30,250
I call him Xiao fish.

294
00:18:31,420 --> 00:18:34,650
As the deputy head of the Ministry of Justice,
how can he have such a coarse name!

295
00:18:35,020 --> 00:18:36,210
That is nonsense.

296
00:18:36,220 --> 00:18:38,530
It is a joke amongst the young.

297
00:18:38,820 --> 00:18:40,210
You do not need to take it to heart.

298
00:18:42,660 --> 00:18:45,970
I heard you and Song'er were married in Suzhou.

299
00:18:46,100 --> 00:18:47,490
I did not want to marry him.

300
00:18:47,820 --> 00:18:50,570
It was all because of his wishful thinking,
he forced me to marry him.

301
00:18:50,740 --> 00:18:53,450
My Song'er would never force a woman to do anything

302
00:18:55,140 --> 00:18:56,610
Your Song'er....

303
00:18:57,020 --> 00:18:58,770
likes to abuse his authority!

304
00:18:59,620 --> 00:19:00,530
In work,

305
00:19:00,540 --> 00:19:03,410
he used his position as deputy head to demand what he wants.

306
00:19:03,820 --> 00:19:04,770
In private,

307
00:19:05,060 --> 00:19:06,810
he forced me, a civilian,

308
00:19:07,300 --> 00:19:09,090
to examine bodies for him!

309
00:19:11,100 --> 00:19:15,090
Is this the nephew I've known since birth?

310
00:19:15,260 --> 00:19:15,930
Fine!

311
00:19:16,580 --> 00:19:17,410
Let me ask you.

312
00:19:18,420 --> 00:19:22,050
Do you know what Song'er likes to eat the most,
and what he despises the most?

313
00:19:23,580 --> 00:19:26,730
Song'er's favorite foods are peach biscuits,

314
00:19:26,980 --> 00:19:28,450
rice with salted egg yolks,

315
00:19:28,460 --> 00:19:30,250
sweetcorn congee, sashimi (raw fish)

316
00:19:30,260 --> 00:19:31,330
and stir fried minced pork.

317
00:19:31,460 --> 00:19:32,690
What he hates the most

318
00:19:32,940 --> 00:19:34,570
are foods like roasted mochi.

319
00:19:35,140 --> 00:19:36,690
You do not even know that..

320
00:19:36,700 --> 00:19:38,450
how can you be his wife?

321
00:19:41,220 --> 00:19:42,370
Mother...

322
00:19:42,860 --> 00:19:44,530
The Xiao clan are a prominent noble family

323
00:19:44,620 --> 00:19:47,610
Song'er's previous wives all came from noble backgrounds

324
00:19:47,620 --> 00:19:51,010
they were all virtuous, gentle with good breeding.

325
00:19:51,020 --> 00:19:53,010
Especially that Du Xin Yi.

326
00:19:53,260 --> 00:19:55,010
Song'er deeply loved her.

327
00:19:55,420 --> 00:19:58,250
They were a match in heaven.

328
00:19:58,580 --> 00:20:00,170
If that did not happen,

329
00:20:00,380 --> 00:20:02,050
Song'er would not remarry.

330
00:20:02,420 --> 00:20:04,370
Xin Yi has already passed away.

331
00:20:04,780 --> 00:20:06,450
Song'er should put down the past and remarry.

332
00:20:06,900 --> 00:20:10,090
Only his wife must be a talented person.

333
00:20:10,700 --> 00:20:13,530
As this Miss Ran does not like our Song'er,

334
00:20:13,820 --> 00:20:16,930
why don't we annul this wedding?

335
00:20:17,740 --> 00:20:20,570
Xiao Song and I have married in Suzhou.

336
00:20:20,860 --> 00:20:23,530
Hence I am already Xiao Song's wife.

337
00:20:27,860 --> 00:20:29,930
That is... the heirloom of the Xiao family!

338
00:20:30,460 --> 00:20:32,010
How did he give it to you?

339
00:20:33,100 --> 00:20:34,730
I did not wish to accept it,

340
00:20:34,900 --> 00:20:36,490
he pushed it onto me.

341
00:20:36,900 --> 00:20:39,570
As I accepted it,
then I am his wife.

342
00:20:39,900 --> 00:20:43,690
Whether it's proposal, birthdates, bridewealth, wedding gifts,

343
00:20:43,700 --> 00:20:45,490
arranging the wedding and the wedding ceremony,

344
00:20:45,500 --> 00:20:47,690
those six rituals must take place.

345
00:20:48,420 --> 00:20:52,250
I must marry into the Xiao family in a grand oocassion

346
00:20:52,420 --> 00:20:54,690
to become Xiao Song's 3rd wife.

347
00:20:55,420 --> 00:20:56,410
Well said

348
00:21:05,620 --> 00:21:08,810
Both of your previous wives passed due to a chest pain.

349
00:21:08,940 --> 00:21:10,090
This is suspicious.

350
00:21:10,340 --> 00:21:12,730
Perhaps the true culprit is within your residence.

351
00:21:12,980 --> 00:21:14,770
Do you not wish to know who that person is?

352
00:21:15,300 --> 00:21:17,370
...can help you find the real killer.

353
00:21:18,300 --> 00:21:20,450
Although the marriage is a farce,

354
00:21:20,740 --> 00:21:22,610
but the rewards are true.

355
00:21:24,180 --> 00:21:25,850
We were married long ago,

356
00:21:26,180 --> 00:21:27,690
we were husband and wife long ago.

357
00:21:29,060 --> 00:21:30,810
The divorce settlement is in my hands,

358
00:21:30,940 --> 00:21:33,490
as long as I sign it, we will be separated.

359
00:21:34,060 --> 00:21:36,130
I did not sign it only because

360
00:21:36,220 --> 00:21:38,730
you helped me when we were in Suzhou.

361
00:21:38,900 --> 00:21:40,170
This time..

362
00:21:40,700 --> 00:21:41,930
think of it as repayment.

363
00:21:43,460 --> 00:21:45,290
Fine, name your price.

364
00:21:47,220 --> 00:21:48,810
5000 coins, fair right?

365
00:21:49,380 --> 00:21:50,890
Fair! Deal!

366
00:21:53,620 --> 00:21:55,850
Are you not afraid...I will do it for real?

367
00:22:02,980 --> 00:22:04,610
The contract clearly states...

368
00:22:05,780 --> 00:22:06,730
7th condition,

369
00:22:06,940 --> 00:22:09,570
during interaction any physical contact is forbidden.

370
00:22:09,860 --> 00:22:12,570
If someone breaks this condition,
the contract can end anytime.

371
00:22:24,780 --> 00:22:27,050
My Lord, Deputy Head Xiao of the Ministry
of justice sends in an invitation.

372
00:22:27,980 --> 00:22:28,850
You are dismissed.

373
00:22:28,940 --> 00:22:29,570
Yes.

374
00:22:34,020 --> 00:22:35,170
[Ran Yan and Xiao Song]

375
00:22:39,580 --> 00:22:41,530
[Xiao Song and Ran Yan]

376
00:23:06,260 --> 00:23:08,570
This dress accentuates Miss' bearing.

377
00:23:08,940 --> 00:23:09,610
We must bring it.

378
00:23:11,900 --> 00:23:14,970
I am just getting married,
does it have to be so grand?

379
00:23:16,700 --> 00:23:19,730
Miss is getting married tomorrow,
which one should I wear?

380
00:23:20,180 --> 00:23:21,650
This one is gold and sparkly.

381
00:23:22,660 --> 00:23:24,650
It will attract too much attention.

382
00:23:24,820 --> 00:23:28,250
Bronze, tin, porcelain, jade, bamboo, wood

383
00:23:28,340 --> 00:23:30,330
there are instruments made of all of those.

384
00:23:32,060 --> 00:23:33,970
I get this feeling something is missing.

385
00:23:34,580 --> 00:23:37,090
Old man, do not take this too seriously,

386
00:23:37,260 --> 00:23:38,610
they will be brought back one day.

387
00:23:39,100 --> 00:23:40,610
We are missing gold and silver!

388
00:23:44,420 --> 00:23:46,130
One box of gold and silver each.

389
00:23:46,380 --> 00:23:47,810
Uncle Wu is it enough?

390
00:23:49,060 --> 00:23:50,570
Enough! That's enough!

391
00:23:51,220 --> 00:23:53,930
I did not expect you to dote on your cousin so much!

392
00:23:54,780 --> 00:23:56,450
Gold and silver?

393
00:23:57,020 --> 00:23:58,490
It's better to give it to me

394
00:23:58,740 --> 00:24:01,370
I also prepared some expensive ornaments too.

395
00:24:01,460 --> 00:24:03,690
You can deliver it to the Xiao family tomorrow at the wedding.

396
00:24:04,740 --> 00:24:07,570
My girl can finally marry herself off.

397
00:24:07,860 --> 00:24:10,410
My wish has finally came true!

398
00:24:16,900 --> 00:24:19,410
Why do I get the feeling you're not marrying me off,

399
00:24:19,860 --> 00:24:21,650
just trying to clear me out of this place.

Slow down!

435
00:27:32,100 --> 00:27:32,970
Don't stop me!

436
00:27:32,980 --> 00:27:34,330
Stop drinking!

437
00:27:34,820 --> 00:27:35,930
-Stop drinking!
-I wish to drink!

438
00:27:36,580 --> 00:27:37,770
-Drink what?
-I have to drink!

439
00:27:38,340 --> 00:27:39,290
Why is there none left?

440
00:27:39,300 --> 00:27:40,490
So what if there's none left?

441
00:27:41,140 --> 00:27:42,530
-Fine, fine.
-You all bully me!

442
00:27:42,540 --> 00:27:43,890
No-one is bully you

443
00:27:44,500 --> 00:27:45,970
Fine fine, go back, go.

444
00:27:46,180 --> 00:27:47,170
I refuse to go back!

445
00:27:47,860 --> 00:27:50,130
I have to ask Xiao Song

446
00:27:50,140 --> 00:27:51,130
Why are you asking him for?

447
00:27:51,140 --> 00:27:53,170
Why did he steal my bride?!

448
00:27:53,860 --> 00:27:55,450
No-one is stealing your bride!

449
00:27:55,700 --> 00:27:57,450
-Fine, fine.
-Xiao Song!

450
00:27:57,980 --> 00:27:59,530
You are being unreasonable!

451
00:27:59,620 --> 00:28:01,210
No-one is being unreasonable!

452
00:28:02,500 --> 00:28:03,370
It's here!

453
00:28:03,740 --> 00:28:04,850
-No...No..
-Xiao Song...

454
00:28:04,980 --> 00:28:05,850
Get out here!

455
00:28:05,860 --> 00:28:06,810
-Shut up!
-Xiao Song!

456
00:28:06,820 --> 00:28:08,210
-You cannot do this!
-Stop causing trouble!

457
00:28:08,940 --> 00:28:10,370
You must not yell! Do not do this!

458
00:28:11,380 --> 00:28:12,410
Lower your voice!

459
00:28:12,660 --> 00:28:13,530
Lower your voice.

460
00:28:13,700 --> 00:28:14,730
It's Sang Chen.

461
00:28:15,180 --> 00:28:16,730
Probably because of Examiner Ran.

462
00:28:17,780 --> 00:28:19,490
In the future call her Mistress Xiao.

463
00:28:20,260 --> 00:28:21,010
Understood.

464
00:28:24,380 --> 00:28:25,970
I am warning you, stop it.

465
00:28:26,340 --> 00:28:27,330
What's going on?

466
00:28:28,140 --> 00:28:29,130
Let me tell you.

467
00:28:29,700 --> 00:28:30,530
Look, look.

468
00:28:30,780 --> 00:28:31,770
This is enough!

469
00:28:32,100 --> 00:28:33,210
Move it!

470
00:28:33,220 --> 00:28:35,050
Insolence! How dare you hit me?

471
00:28:35,300 --> 00:28:37,250
Look, who this is?

472
00:28:39,980 --> 00:28:41,410
Xiao Song...

473
00:28:41,980 --> 00:28:43,530
I will beat you to death!

474
00:28:48,100 --> 00:28:48,970
Take him away.

475
00:28:52,660 --> 00:28:55,330
You hit him, you have to show some responsibility!

476
00:28:55,340 --> 00:28:56,490
Why should I be responsible?

477
00:28:56,700 --> 00:28:59,250
You must be responsible!

478
00:29:02,900 --> 00:29:04,450
You better count all this properly,

479
00:29:04,460 --> 00:29:05,690
do not let anything happen.

480
00:29:05,700 --> 00:29:06,250
Do not worry.

481
00:29:06,260 --> 00:29:09,450
We're done for! I searched the entire manor
but I cannot find Miss!

482
00:29:10,340 --> 00:29:13,010
In less than four hours, Minister Xiao will be here to collect her.

483
00:29:13,980 --> 00:29:16,770
Butler Zhou hurry and search for her
in the markets.

484
00:29:16,780 --> 00:29:17,570
Yes!

485
00:29:19,580 --> 00:29:21,730
[Su Residence]

486
00:30:01,180 --> 00:30:03,930
Let me out!

487
00:30:13,340 --> 00:30:14,170
Have you found her?

488
00:30:14,180 --> 00:30:16,530
I searched both markets but I couldn't find her.

489
00:30:17,300 --> 00:30:19,970
Miss was well how could she disappear?

490
00:30:21,340 --> 00:30:23,730
Young master, Minister Xiao's wedding escort is about to arrive.

491
00:30:24,100 --> 00:30:25,250
What shall we do?

492
00:30:25,380 --> 00:30:28,410
Before because of that Sang rabbit,
my Miss' reputation was tarnished.

493
00:30:28,580 --> 00:30:30,570
Right now Lord Xiao is the only one willing to marry her.

494
00:30:30,780 --> 00:30:33,890
If she runs from another wedding,
who will marry Miss?

495
00:30:34,500 --> 00:30:35,330
Do not fret.

496
00:30:35,780 --> 00:30:36,730
There must be a way.

497
00:30:43,860 --> 00:30:45,690
Why did you come to Chang'an?

498
00:30:47,220 --> 00:30:49,370
Why do you have to appear again?

499
00:30:56,340 --> 00:30:57,490
Tonight...

500
00:31:00,100 --> 00:31:01,610
I must marry Xiao Song.

501
00:31:10,260 --> 00:31:11,250
Xiao Song and I...

502
00:31:14,020 --> 00:31:15,290
are holding a fake marriage.

503
00:31:28,340 --> 00:31:29,130
Young Master.

504
00:31:30,100 --> 00:31:33,130
Young Master the Xiao wedding escort is by the door.

505
00:31:35,100 --> 00:31:38,650
We are done for, my Miss cannot marry herself off again.

506
00:31:40,860 --> 00:31:42,330
Why said I can't?

507
00:31:49,500 --> 00:31:51,010
Why are there so many people here?

508
00:31:51,100 --> 00:31:52,570
The ceremony was so grand

509
00:31:52,620 --> 00:31:54,810
Even a show has to be 7 parts real,

510
00:31:54,820 --> 00:31:56,050
let alone a wedding.

511
00:31:56,100 --> 00:31:57,730
Aren't you afraid you'll be unable to dismount a tiger?*

512
00:31:57,820 --> 00:31:59,490
We resolve the matters as they come.*

513
00:31:59,780 --> 00:32:01,970
Let's resolve tomorrow's troubles,tornorrow.

514
00:32:01,980 --> 00:32:03,650
Why do I feel something is up?

515
00:32:04,580 --> 00:32:05,490
What is this?

516
00:32:05,500 --> 00:32:07,410
I ﻿was worried you'll be hungry
so I brought some grapes for you.

517
00:32:07,460 --> 00:32:08,610
At least you have a conscience.

518
00:32:13,020 --> 00:32:15,170
Be a little gentle when you examine them.

519
00:32:15,500 --> 00:32:17,370
My lord is very kind to both wives.

520
00:32:17,700 --> 00:32:19,770
Especially Mistress Du,
he loved her deeply.

521
00:32:20,220 --> 00:32:21,810
He is not one to forget his love.

522
00:32:22,300 --> 00:32:24,970
I think you love your lord even more!

523
00:32:25,460 --> 00:32:26,090
You...

524
00:32:43,460 --> 00:32:44,330
Open the coffin.

525
00:32:46,620 --> 00:32:47,290
Open the coffin.

526
00:32:56,940 --> 00:32:59,130
Xiang Yao, has been dead for over a year.

527
00:32:59,740 --> 00:33:01,210
The skeleton is starting to show through.

528
00:33:01,980 --> 00:33:04,850
Her head and front is uninjured.

529
00:33:05,220 --> 00:33:06,490
No injuries on both sides either.

530
00:33:10,340 --> 00:33:11,850
No injuries on back of her head.

531
00:33:16,580 --> 00:33:19,930
Both her legs and arms are uninjured.

532
00:33:21,980 --> 00:33:23,330
Calves are uninjured.

533
00:33:24,700 --> 00:33:26,090
Her feet are injured.

534
00:33:26,900 --> 00:33:28,090
Turn her over.

535
00:33:33,860 --> 00:33:35,450
There are no external injuries on the body

536
00:33:36,620 --> 00:33:37,850
Nor are there any bone fractures.

537
00:33:38,860 --> 00:33:40,890
Of course, she died from a chest obstruction.

538
00:33:57,740 --> 00:33:59,970
She died from an obstruction in the heart movement.

539
00:34:00,460 --> 00:34:01,890
As they say the heart,

540
00:34:02,020 --> 00:34:03,770
is the core of one's life, and the home of the soul.

541
00:34:04,020 --> 00:34:07,010
During a heart attack, and an obstruction within
the heart, the blood will rush into the vessels,

542
00:34:07,140 --> 00:34:08,490
causing the heart to be enlarged.

543
00:34:08,980 --> 00:34:09,770
But...

544
00:34:09,860 --> 00:34:12,210
her heart...seems a little too enlarged.

545
00:34:23,140 --> 00:34:24,530
Examiner Ran hurry take a look.

546
00:34:27,780 --> 00:34:29,130
Why is there another body here?

547
00:34:29,540 --> 00:34:30,210
Don't remove it!

548
00:34:30,580 --> 00:34:31,890
Do not damage the evidence.

549
00:34:38,740 --> 00:34:39,970
There are 8 bones that form the skull.

550
00:34:41,100 --> 00:34:42,330
The pelvic bone is narrow.

551
00:34:43,340 --> 00:34:44,650
It is a man's body.

552
00:34:46,140 --> 00:34:48,490
Why is there a man's body in
Mistress' coffin?

553
00:34:49,260 --> 00:34:51,450
The head and upper body of the corpse,

554
00:34:51,700 --> 00:34:54,010
and their arms were all burned.

555
00:34:54,460 --> 00:34:57,970
In the lower half of his body...
are traces of unburned skin.

556
00:34:59,420 --> 00:35:00,490
Hand me the tweezers.

557
00:35:10,860 --> 00:35:12,890
There are traces of smoke in the mouth and nose.

558
00:35:15,060 --> 00:35:16,650
Both hands are curled in fists.

559
00:35:17,620 --> 00:35:18,850
He was burned alived!

560
00:35:19,220 --> 00:35:21,490
Let's see what is inside his hand.

561
00:35:25,100 --> 00:35:26,170
There is nothing.

562
00:35:28,740 --> 00:35:31,490
But....his right index finger...

563
00:35:31,740 --> 00:35:34,970
middle finger, and ring finger were all injured.

564
00:35:35,500 --> 00:35:38,250
Could he be snatching something from someone before dying?

565
00:35:46,260 --> 00:35:47,570
There is blood on this.

566
00:35:48,420 --> 00:35:49,690
Could it be this?

567
00:35:52,860 --> 00:35:53,570
My Lord.

568
00:35:57,700 --> 00:35:59,010
There is a dent.

569
00:35:59,540 --> 00:36:01,010
And 3 bloodstains.

570
00:36:01,180 --> 00:36:03,690
It seems they were fighting over this.

571
00:36:04,020 --> 00:36:06,690
Perhaps this...is the murder weapon.

572
00:36:13,820 --> 00:36:16,090
Mistress Du also died from a chest obstruction.

573
00:36:32,260 --> 00:36:33,690
She has no external injuries.

574
00:36:33,900 --> 00:36:35,570
She did die from a chest obstruction.

575
00:36:36,060 --> 00:36:36,890
But..

576
00:36:37,020 --> 00:36:39,930
although her heart is enlarged but not as much as Xiang Yao's.

577
00:36:52,420 --> 00:36:55,410
Within Du Xing Yi's mouth is a black string like object.

578
00:36:56,700 --> 00:36:58,170
She seems to have bitten into something.

579
00:37:04,500 --> 00:37:08,170
[Xiao Manor]

580
00:37:15,380 --> 00:37:16,930
Who is there?
