When there was a fire in the archive
of Guanling Yamen,

between the shifts of two magistrates,

Unknown
the Xu Family moved away and disappeared.

It was such a coincidence.

Xu’s Tomb
Someone tried to cover something up.

Sir Witch Doctor left a letter to me
and left home.

Where has he gone?

Why did he hide an end-game

Knight, Elephant, Pawn

in his room?

Elephant, Rook, Pawn, Knight

There’re so many secrets.

I will figure everything out.

You mean she not only hurt her forehead,

when hitting the wall,

but also wounded the back of her head?

No. She didn’t hit the wall.

She was hit
by something blunt intensively.

You mean...?

Your Highness,

There’re fractures

in her carpal bones, ulnas,

and radii.

She was wounded before she died.

How was she wounded?

To protect me.

Protect you?

I was nearly born

when she was hurt.

She had a swollen belly.

Someone suddenly pushed her from behind,

trying to make it an accident
that she hit the wall herself.

To protect me in her body,

she held her arms
against the wall immediately.

Because of the fierce hitting,

she had fractures of different levels

Multiple fractures
in her carpal bones, ulnas,

and radii.

Failing in killing her,

the murderer hit
the back of her head again,

and then she died of the fracture
in her occipital.

Your Highness,
my mother didn’t kill herself.

She was killed by others!

Please redress the grievance for her.

Stand up.

Not to mention she’s your mother,

even if she’s an irrelevant woman,

I’ll also find out the truth

and redress the grievance for her.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Well.

You’re the coroner,

taking care of the case.

Don’t do this.

I’m sorry.

Your Highness, I know
how to find my father.

How?

Do you remember I told you that

human’s appearance had something to do
with his skull?

Yes.

With my mother’s skull for reference,

I can restore her appearance

with pottery clay.

Then you can portray her.

If someone can recognize her,

he might also know my father.

Restore her appearance with clay?

Just like the statue.

It’ll look more real with the clay.

Sounds like a good idea.

But Chu Chu,

she’s your mother.

Have you made up your mind?

Your Highness, it’s something
about my mother’s grievance.

As you said,

even if she’s an irrelevant woman,

we’ll also find out the truth,

not to mention she’s my mother.

She had risked her life to protect me
before she died.

As a coroner,

I should do everything I can

to speak for the dead.

Please let me do it.

All right. You can do it.

Do as the way you think.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Who is that?

The Imperial Coroner

Episode 15

Jing’s Mansion

Master, a letter from Young Master.

Dear Father,
From Jing Yi

Master, is there anything wrong

with Young Master?

Commandery Prince An
found a eunuch’s corpse

in the house

where Xiao Heng used to live.

A eunuch’s corpse?

Why was a eunuch in Qianzhou?

Qin Luan went to Qianzhou,

to pacify the rebellion of Chen Ying.

Later, eunuchs went there

to exterminate the remnants.

I guess that was when
the eunuch went there.

Commandery Prince An asserted that

Xiao Heng killed the eunuch.

Prince Consort killed a eunuch?

It doesn’t sound right.

Prince Consort was almost killed
by rebels.

Eunuchs exterminated rebels.

Speaking of this,

Prince Consort and eunuchs

should be on the same side.

It’s true that
eunuchs exterminated rebels.

But Xiao Heng never
went on well with eunuchs.

When he worked in the court,

he often punished eunuchs.

It’s also possible that

they took the chance

to kill Xiao Heng.

You make sense, Master.

According to this,

Xiao Heng is likely to be alive.

As reported,

Princess Xiping just
visited His Majesty.

Now, she may go to Xue’s Mansion.

Keep a close eye on Xue’s Mansion.

Xue’s Mansion

Come in, please, Your Grace.

Banxia, guard at the door.

Yes.

This way, please, Your Grace.

Mr. Xue,

please save my son and me!

What are you doing, Your Grace?

If you want me to do anything,

I’ll do it, regardless of any danger.

You’re the princess.

Don’t kneel to me.

Your Grace, be seated and tell me.

Don’t cry, Your Grace.

Or your eyes might be hurt.

Your Grace, you visited His Majesty?

If I guess correctly,

His Majesty told you about the marriage

between General Xiao and Miss Leng Yue.

You knew that?

I heard of that.

I treat you as my family

and I always tell you everything.

Why did you keep it from me?

I...

Your Grace, you watched Leng Yue
grow up.

You also wanted Commandery Prince An
to marry her.

Why don’t you allow General Xiao
to marry her?

Are you trying to fob me off?

I’m not an ignorant woman.

I’m one of the imperial family,

and I grew up in the Palace.

Leng Yue is only granddaughter
of Leng Peishan,

Military Commissioner of Qianzhongdao.

His Majesty is feeding my son to wolves!

Now that you know the real problem,

I’ll get to the point.

General Leng is your uncle.

He’s also the head of the Leng Family.

It concerns his family interests.

If General Xiao forcibly takes over
the military power in the Southwest,

I’m afraid he’ll be in danger.

If Jinli takes over the military power
in the Southwest,

he and I will go the same old way

like my mother did,

becoming chess pieces

to restrain the Leng Family
in the Southwest.

Your Grace,

may I ask

how you replied to His Majesty?

I’m no longer a young girl.

I didn’t lose my temper
in front of His Majesty.

His Majesty promised me that

I could divine their birthdays

before he gives the order
about the marriage.

I can only stall him for a short time.

Sir, please do something for me.

I...

I know.

You’re Senior Jing’s disciple

and you don’t want to disobey him.

If you worry about your future,

please tell me directly.

It’s human nature.

I won’t blame you for it.

Your Grace, I watched General Xiao

and Commandery Prince An grow up.

To be honest,

I’ve been thinking about it so far.

If you trust me,

I’ll try to solve the problem for you.

What’s the plan, Mr. Xue?

I’m going to the Southwest.

Your Highness?

What brings you here?

I’m looking for Jing Yi. Where’s he?

I didn’t see him when I woke up.

Maybe he’s still sleeping.

Your Highness,
I’ve got something to tell you.

May I have a word with you?

Your Highness,

I know I may sound ungrateful,

but I must make something clear.

Or it’ll hurt us both.

Just get to the point.

We grew up together.

I admire you
for your morality and ability,

so I always obey you.

But...

I only treat you as my good friend.

So do I.

That’s fine, then.

Wait.

Be specific.

I hear Aunt wants us to get married.

I don’t know if you have agreed.

I want to make it clear to you.

But it’s fine now.

From now on,

let’s still be good friends.

I’ll still obey you.

Leng Yue,

I don’t know how you heard of that.

My mother never told me about it.

I respect you for being straightforward,

ebullient and as brave as men,

But as you said,

I only treat you as my good friend.

Also, we’re cousins.

I never mean to love you.

I obey imperial rules and live my life.

You enjoy yourself in the martial world.

If you’re forced to stay
in Three Judicial Offices,

there’ll always be a mess

until we fight against each other

and both suffer great losses.

Yes, you’re right.

Now that we make it clear,

I have something to ask you.

Go ahead.

You never wanted to come to Qianzhou.

But you insisted
on coming with me this time.

Why?

Aunt asked me to come with you.

No one can ever control you.

I can figure it out.

My mother must have asked you
to keep an eye on Chu Chu

in case she might hurt me.

But you wouldn’t be convinced to come

or risk your life to save her.

So, why did you come?

I know

I can hide no secret from you.

I did come for Chu Chu.

Chu Chu?

Yes. For her.

Because she’s like me.

Who’s talking out there?

Your Highness?

What are you talking about?

Chu Chu is working in the mortuary.

Yamen runners can’t keep her company.

Go send her some pottery clay

and stay with her,

in case she imagines things.

All right.

Go guard the door

and keep everyone away.

Yes.

Your Highness, you look so serious.

Insiders know you come to talk with me.

Ignorant people will think

you’re coming to date a girl.

Are you looking for trouble

simply because
I haven’t punished you for days?

I’m too exhausted to make a trouble.

Who?

Didn’t you just get up?

Why are your shoes muddy?

Who told you I just got up?

I woke up very early,

went around the county,

and checked about local copper coins.

Then I came back to bed.

But just a while later, you came.

I do come to see you

for some girl’s stuff.

Girl? Which girl?

Tell me about it.

A girl from the Xu Family.

The Xu Family?

They don’t look like a girl’s stuff.

They’re jewels and clothes of a woman.

Why don’t they look like a girl’s stuff?

I mean

they belong to a married woman,

instead of a young girl.

Also they look old-fashioned.

Chu Chu.

Miss Leng?

His Highness said
you were doing something important

in this place

and asked me to bring you some clay.

You need this for autopsy?

It’s not for autopsy.

It’s for...

restoring my mother’s face.

Your mother?

His Highness and I

opened my mother’s coffin.

I’ll use the clay
to restore her appearance.

When it’s done,

we may find someone who knows her

and confirm her identity.

No wonder His Highness worries
when you stay here alone.

He worries?

No. No, I don’t mean that.

I mean he worries you’ll imagine things

when you stay here alone.

Miss Leng, don’t worry.

I promised His Highness that

I would treat my mother

in the way I treat other corpses.

I won’t think about anything else,

except restoring her appearance.

Speaking of that,

when I learned medical skills,
I noticed that

a person’s skull had something to do

with his appearance.

But whether the person is fat or thin

also plays an important role.

Luckily, we found
a set of my mother’s clothes,

which was buried with her in the coffin.

Based on the clothes,

I can figure out her shape.

When I finish this,

I’ll know

what my mother looks like.

Your Highness, where did you get them?

They belong to Chu Chu’s mother.

Chu Chu’s mother? Lady Xu?

She’s been dead for many years.

How did you get..?

From her coffin?

Your Highness, you went too far!

It’s all right
when you checked who Chu Chu was,

but you shouldn’t have opened
her mother’s coffin!

Chu Chu allowed me to do that.

She was there
when the coffin was opened.

She opened her mother’s coffin?

She has inspected her mother’s skeleton.

Now, she’s trying
to restore her mother’s appearance

in the mortuary,

so as to provide more clues

for her mother’s identity.

Chu Chu has seen all kinds of corpses

as a coroner,

but opening her mother’s coffin

and checking her mother’s skeleton?

It’s hard for anyone, Your Highness.

That’s why

we must check

every single clue very carefully

and don’t waste her bravery.

You’re familiar with girls’ stuff.

Check them carefully

and see what information you can find.

What do you want me to find?

If I tell you now,

I’ll influence your judgement.

Check them first.

I’ll go see Chu Chu in the mortuary.

All right.

Speaking of it,

I don’t remember
what my mother looks like.

When I was very little,

my parents died, too.

Princess Xiping brought me up.

Princess Xiping?

Why did she bring you up?

Your parents died early,

but you have a grandfather, don’t you?

Didn’t I tell you?

His Highness’s mother Princess Xiping

is my aunt.

When my parents died,

my family was in a mess.

My aunt brought me to her house
and looked after me.

But my grandfather?

He didn’t come back to Chang’an

until years after my parents died.

He was summoned
to meet the new emperor.

If I had waited for him,

I might have been dead.

I’m simply complaining.

Don’t take it seriously.

Don’t tell His Highness or Xiao Jinli.

They always want to patch things up

between my grandfather and me,

especially Xiao Jinli.

If he knows,

he’ll be nagging again.

I see.

Don’t worry.

I won’t tell anyone about it.

Miss Leng, don’t be too sad.

I think when you look into the mirror,

you’ll know what your parents look like.

Look into the mirror?

Yeah.

People think we’re born to be different.

It’s not right.

We look like our parents.

I’m serious.

I studied it very carefully.

Father, Mother

Appearance inheritance
One doesn’t have a face out of nowhere.

He looks like his parents.

For example,

if a couple don’t have tall noses,

their child

will hardly have a tall nose.

And eyes...

If the couple have single eyelid,

their child

won’t have double eyelids like I do.

Single eyelid, Double eyelids

Sounds interesting.

I haven’t noticed that before.

I don’t know
what your parents look like.

But you look so beautiful.

It’s not only because of your father.

Thank you, Chu Chu.

You’re welcome.

I’m telling the truth.

Do you know why I came to Qianzhou?

You told me about that.

Princess Xiping sent you.

Before I went back to Chang’an,

I had heard about you.

At first, I thought
you got close to His Highness

for a purpose.

But after I met you in Chang’an,

I knew I misunderstood you.

I met all kinds of people
in the martial world.

The first time I saw you,

I knew you and I were
the same kind of person.

I’m a coroner.

You’re from a rich family.

We’re totally different.

How can we be the same kind?

I don’t mean the family background,

but what we pursue.

What we pursue?

You went all the way to Chang’an,

just like I ran away from Chang’an.

We pursue what we want.

You want a chance to be a coroner.

All I want

is to be freed from the clan.

There aren’t many chances for girls.

When I see you tried hard
to be a coroner,

I kind of see the old me.

So,

I promised my aunt

to come to Qianzhou with you

so that I could help you
realize your dream.

Now, His Highness has finally hired you.

Congratulations.

You’ll be an official coroner
in Three Judicial Offices.

Thank you, Miss Leng.

What for?

I’m just an idler

who is quite self-sentimental.

You should say thank you

to His Highness.

Forget it.

Who do you think

is the most handsome,

His Highness, Jing Yi or Xiao Jinli?

They all look handsome.

But in different ways.

Be specific.

Vice Minister Jing has a pretty face.

General Xiao has a strong body.

His Highness...

You know what?

I’m sure his skull looks great.

I’m right about you.

You’re indeed a good coroner.

His Highness looks handsome.

But I always think

he shouldn’t look like this.

Why?

Is he General Xiao’s biological brother

of the same parents?

Yeah.

They’re twins.

Some twins look different.

It’s not weird, isn’t it?

It’s not weird
when twins look different.

But as I said,

I can infer the child’s appearance

from his parent’s skulls.

It’s not perfectly correct,

but based on their appearances,

they don’t look like brothers

of the same parents.

Shh.

Don’t let Xiao Jinli hear you.

You saw

how hard he protected His Highness.

If he hears you, he’ll punch you!

As far as I see,

one of them

may look like their father

while the other looks like their mother.

Or maybe His Highness decided a lot

before he was born.

You know what?

His Highness has been
making his own decisions

since he was little.

Maybe when he wanted to look like this,

he then had the face.

He has a good taste, then?

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

How’s the pottery statue going?

It’s done.

It’s my first time to do this.

I may have done a poor job.

But the crude face

won’t go wrong.

Well done.

Leave the rest to me.

You had a long day.

Go back for some rest.

When I find any clue,

I’ll tell you personally.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Leng Yue, walk her back.

All right.

Let’s go.

Eunuch Sun. Eunuch Qin.

Eunuch Qin.

You, leave!

Yes.

Do you know why you can stay?

He’s asking you. Say something!

He’s dead?

Yeah. I think he took some poison.

Aconitine.

He’s really from the Southwest.

How daring!

He even dared to make trouble here.

He thought I was totally ignorant?

It’s not your place to stir up trouble.

Master, who do you mean?

Are you sure he’s the man

who spread rumors about Duke Chang?

Absolutely sure!

We came unexpectedly

and he killed himself hastily.

There must be some clues
that haven’t been destroyed yet.

Search this room carefully.

Yes.

Master.

What’s this?

Look. A receipt of Antique Store.

Jin Lin, Chi Fang with Antique Store,
The 20th day of the tenth month

Antique Store?

Jin Lin, Chi Fang with Antique Store

Antique Store

Manager,

Qin Luan has come.

Coming in, please.

Eunuch Sun!

Elegant Literature
Be quick. Get us some tea.

Don’t bother.

You’re the manager?

I’m Chi Fang,

manager of Antique Store.

Greetings, Eunuch Qin.

It’s our great honor

to have you come.

Jin Lin, Chi Fang with Antique Store,
The 20th day of the tenth month

It’s for another eunuch, I guess.

Now that you have the receipt,

I’ll go get it for you.

Please wait a second, Eunuch Qin.

Elegant Literature

The Book of Songs

Eunuch Qin.

It’s well repaired.

Your skill is good
as imperial craftsmen.

You are flattering me, Eunuch Qin.

When he brought this here,

did he say something?

He simply asked me to repair this.

He said nothing else.

Officials often say that

Antique Store is the granary

for literary scholars.

When I see it with my own eyes,

I know it deserves the reputation.

Look.

Even you hold the Book of Songs.

I’m simply arty-crafty.

You flatter me, Eunuch Qin.

I don’t deserve the honor.

Eunuch Qin, you seldom come.

This is a little gift for you.

Please accept it.

Here you are, Eunuch Qin.

Thank you, Manager Chi.

You’re welcome.

See you, Eunuch Qin!

Miss Leng, has your wound healed?

Yes.

I nearly forgot it.

You risked your life to help me.

I don’t know how to pay you back.

Beautiful figured cloth.

Let me treat you something to eat.

There’s a shop of rice noodles ahead.

It’s the best in Guanling County.

Good idea. Let’s go.

How’s it going?

Not smoothly.

How about Chu Chu?
Is she doing all right?

She did a very good job.

I asked Leng Yue to walk her back.

Why do you want me
to play chess with you?

Play it with me.

Active your mind
before checking the exhibits.

What... what’s this?

It’s an end-game.

End-game?

Your Highness, don’t torture me.

You know how poorly I play chess.

Within one hour,

you can defeat me ten times
even if we start a new game,

not to mention an end-game.

As long as you win,

I’ll return all your deductions.

Really?

If you lose,

you’ll also lose your salaries
for the next three months.

Rice noodles for you.

Thank you, sir.

Wait a second.

Rice cake!

I want to eat that. What about you?

Rice cake?

All right. I’ll go buy some.

No, no. I’ll go.

-I want to see how he makes it.
-Delicious rice cake!

Come and have a look!

Figured cloth.

-Sir, get me some water.
-Nice figured cloth.

Come and look at the pouches.

Miss.

Sir.

-Try some. It’s home-made.
-All right.

It smells delicious.

Sure, it’s home-made.

Chu Chu!

Chu Chu!

Your Highness,

playing chess with you is more tiring
than viewing files.

My mind is in a whirl.

I’ll even lose my salaries
for the next three months.

I can’t hold on. I’ll go have some rest.

Check the exhibits carefully,

or you’ll lose more salaries.

Brother.

Your Highness.

Don’t bother to salute.

Leave us.

I have something to ask you.

What is it?

Who is better in Swift Moving,

you or Jing Yi?

Speaking of martial arts,

I can defeat him with single hand.

But speaking of Swift Moving,

I don’t want to admit it,

but he does much better than me.

Considering his Swift Moving,

when he deliberately sneaks

about ten meters away from you,

can you notice him?

He has poor martial arts.

If I pay attention,

I’ll notice him.

But I may not
if I’m not paying attention.

Why do you suddenly ask?

Nothing.

Your Highness!

Your Highness, bad news!

Chu Chu was kidnapped!

What?

When? Where?

Just now. Less than a quarter.

In the fair near Yamen.

When I was buying something,

that man knocked her out
and took her away!

It was my fault. I was too careless.

Did you see him clearly?

A middle-aged man with a medium height.

I think I met him before.

He was alone?

Yes.

Then you let him run away?

I...

Jinyu, I’ll go assemble the soldiers.

Leng Yue, go borrow some men

from Zheng Youde.

Do take Deputy Magistrate Tan Gui.

He’s native.

He’s more familiar with local condition.

All right.

Be quick!

Be quick!

Your Highness, here it is.

After he caught Chu Chu,

he ran into the lane.

I was a bit late

and they were gone.

Over there.

What kind of people live nearby?

Your Highness,

common people live nearby.

Most of them do small business.

If I remember correctly,

no one has a criminal record.

Precisely.

Leng Yue, you said when you caught up,

a carriage passed by

and stopped you

so that you failed in catching up.

Yes.

Where?

Right here.

Here, Your Highness.

Tracks of the carriage?

The carriage was parked there.

Chu Chu sat there.

That man knew Leng Yue was responsive
and had good martial arts.

He asked the carriage to stop her.

Chu Chu!

He met Leng Yue before.

Chu Chu!

And he knew what she could do.

It’s Xu Rugui!

Jinyu!

Is this Miss Chu’s hairpin?

Where did you find it?

Under the basket.

Under the basket?

Chu Chu can’t have dropped it.

Xu Rugui asked his man to stop Leng Yue.

He knocked Chu Chu out
and took her away.

In such a short time,

he dropped the hairpin
under the basket.

He did it on purpose!

Who did it?

Xu Rugui.

Brother, keep searching this place
with your men.

Have two runners stay and help.

Let the rest of them go back to Yamen.

All right.

Does it have something to do
with Jing Yi?

Who... who are you?

I think I met you before.

Where am I?

I’m warning you!

I work for Yamen.

Commandery Prince An, you know?

I’m a coroner, working for him.

He’ll come and find me!

I’m sure he’ll come, Chu Chu.

You know my name?

You know my name, too.

But everything was in a mess that day.

You may not remember my face.

Or you may have only remembered

another image of mine in Rugui House.

You... you are...?

I’m Xu Rugui.
