Under The Power

Episode 11

Heavens!

Look how difficult my trip has been this time.

Please watch over me,

and ensure that this trip will go smoothly and we can catch the culprit.

I hope I will gain enough silver

to find my biological parents soon.

Instead of praying to the gods,

you should think of a way

to find that replacement singer.

Your... Your Excellency.

How?

Did you hear everything I just said?

Yes.

Luckily, I didn't say anything wrong.

Or else, I would have to pack up and leave.

Are you an orphan?

Actually, this isn't a big secret.

As a child, I got lost

and was separated from my family.

I stayed in a brothel for a while,

then I was adopted by my current mother.

Your Excellency.

I have a request,

I don't know if I should speak out or not?

What is it?

The Embroidered Uniform Guards have excellent intelligence,

and detectives all over the land.

So, if I do well this time

and catch the killer quickly,

could you help me

find my birth parents?

I'm Registrar of the Embroidered Uniform Guards,

I should lead by example.

How can I engage in personal work when I should be working for the state?

I see.

But rules are man-made,

and can be changed.

Your Excellency.

Then you agree to help me?

I haven't agreed to anything.

I'll see how I feel.

Thank you, Your Excellency.

Then I'll wait until you're in a good mood

to ask you.

Xi, hurry up.

Coming. Coming.

Come on, quit dithering.

Jinxia, you're here?

Careful.

What do you think about the male students

that the Master chose

this time?

I think that Lu Shisan is pretty good.

What is it, are you in love?

Honestly.

I just think that he has an attractive appearance,

and is a talented man.

I think

you've fallen for his handsome face.

You... You're so annoying.

OK, I'll stop teasing you.

But

to tell the truth,

I think that Lu Shisan

really does look good.

He also has an excellent figure.

Look at what you're like!

You only ever mock us.

You get your fill everyday.

You spend every day with Lu Shisan,

so, of course, you don't have that feeling.

But nowadays, there aren't many people with looks

and a physique like him.

Indeed.

Shisan really is outstanding.

If you have fallen in love with him,

then do you want me to talk to him in private?

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Who knows, maybe he feels the same way

and you can get together!

Great, great!

I have admired Lu Shisan for a long time.

What's wrong with you?

Nothing. Nothing.

Something came flying out of nowhere.

But Lu Shisan

doesn't lust after beautiful women.

His personality is also very unpredictable.

It may not be appropriate.

Moreover, I heard

that he has someone in his heart.

You weren't saying that just now.

Really?

What I mean is that

you may not

be able to tame him.

If we can't tame him,

then who can?

You?

No. No. No. No chance.

I'm lucky he hasn't tamed me.

Jinxia, tell us the truth.

Perhaps, you're in love with Lu Shisan too?

Me? Love him...

He...

Could you be the one he loves?

Impossible!

Heavens!

That'd be asking for death. Love him?

So why did you bring this up?

You keeping changing your attitude and contradicting yourself.

I think she wants to make us back off.

Right! Right!

No. No. No. It's not like that.

-It is.
-It is.

It's not. You're mistaken. You guys!

-Dare deny it!
-Dare deny it!

You're mistaken!

You're mistaken!

You won't even admit it! It's you.

Just admit it and we'll let you off.

Spare me, you guys.

Spare me. Spare me.

Please stop there.

Every banquet in this world must come to an end.

Someday we will meet again.

Bro Sha, then we won't see you off.

Until the next time.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Xie Xiao,

you...

Xi,

do you know why I agreed to stay?

Because of the Wu'an Sect, no?

Because of Yuan Jinxia.

When I was little, I was bullied,

Prawn said she would protect me.

At that time, I secretly swore

that one day when I grow up,

I would protect her.

Later when I saw Lu Yi

order her around like a servant

and make her investigate day and night without rest,

I felt so sad.

Then, I thought about how she

injured her shoulder protecting me when there was that thing with Bro Sha.

I mean, how could I not appreciate

a girl like that?

You...

Just now, after hearing what Bro Sha had to say,

I have made a decision.

What decision?

I will protect Yuan Jinxia for the rest of my life.

Hurry up, let's go.

Come on.

Feels so comfortable!

Yes.

Finally, I can enjoy this alone.

Lu Shisan.

Did you see the Master in the spring?

No, I didn't.

What is it?

Strange, I clearly saw him go in.

OK, thank you.

I'll keep looking.

Don't move!

Me...

Who are you?

Master.

Master, what are you doing?

This is the women's spring.

Enough nonsense!

Tell me,

who you are.

Master.

I am your new disciple, you've forgot?

Put the blade down first.

We can talk about this, okay?

Don't want to talk, eh?

OK.

Let me remind you,

that day you sneaked into my room,

and took one of my letters,

didn't you?

Master.

I'd just arrived at the Chunxi Troupe,

I wanted to have a look around,

and accidentally walked in,

where I saw the letter,

and thought the calligraphy was very beautiful,

so I planned to bring it back and study it.

I...my hand is so naughty.

Let me continue to remind you,

that day I came to Langyuan,

did you follow me all the way?

Finally, you took my orchids, didn't you?

No. No. No. That was just a coincidence.

I strayed to Langyuan,

and took, and took some orchids,

it, it was this hand that was being naughty.

I like taking things.

Master, what are you doing?

Tell the truth!

I don't have time to mess about with you.

I...

I'm telling the truth.

You...

Your Excellency.

Jinxia.

You... You lied to me.

Get out!

I'll go when I've got my brooch.

Have you seen enough?

Your Excellency. Your Excellency!

Change your clothes, we've got work to do.

Who are you?

What do you want?

Jerk! Let me go!

Outrageous!

Insulting government officials,

is punishable with seventy strokes.

It's you two.

You're officials?

You sneaked into my theater,

why should I trust you?

Who knows, you guys could be impostors!

This is Yangzhou prison.

If the Master does not believe me,

then you stay a few days and you will know.

Prison?

Why are you arresting me?

What crime have I committed?

Do you have any evidence?

Why are you in such a hurry?

OK.

So we will talk

about Yun Zheyue.

That day,

you sneaked off to Langyuan to sacrifice to the dead,

which was Yun Zheyue, right?

What is Yun Zheyue? I don't know.

You still refuse to speak.

You sneak off in the middle of the night to sacrifice, but you don't know who to?

This man is an Embroidered Uniform Guard.

The interrogation methods they use,

you don't need me to tell you, do you?

So, I recommend being honest.

You will not suffer.

Yun Zheyue is out of time,

later because of "The Best Perfume" that changed,

when he became famous, he died again.

Ten years after, the Chunxi Troupe returned to Yangzhou,

another person died that way.

What a coincidence!

Speak, did you kill Yun Zheyue?

Yun Zheyue's death that year was very strange.

The government sent many people to investigate, but to no avail.

Why do you say that I did it?

This is what I found

in the puppet in Yun Zheyue's room.

[This is the last time I will be your replacement singer.]

Replacement singer?

These past days,

I was fortunate to learn singing from Master.

I think,

the singer must wear a lot of makeup,

and act many different roles,

to depict to others

all the thousands of lives and events that happen in the world.

It teaches people to obey human morals.

However,

it is just a play,

and the longer it goes on,

the easier it becomes for people to be unable to

differentiate between what is real and what is fake.

In reality they also fall into roles,

and completely forget who they truly are.

If I'm not mistaken,

you are Wu Yinhua.

It is true that life is like a play.

Life is like a play.

How many years have passed,

now,

it is time to let it go.

You finally plead guilty.

I didn't kill anyone.

You didn't?

Then why do you sneak off to sacrifice to him?

Also,

you made the wind bell that gave birth to

the illusion in Langyuan, right?

Your Excellency.

If I tell the truth,

can you spare me?

You dare set conditions?

If you really committed murder,

even the emperor won't be able to protect you.

Let's hear it!

The truth

is that I did not kill Yun Zheyue.

There was a time when I wanted to kill him,

but he was my Senior brother.

We worked together

as disciples of the Old Master of the Chunxi Troupe.

Master named us,

he is Yun Zheyue,

and I am Wu Jinhua.

When we were students,

we always practiced hard.

We talked together,

and said that we would become the best.

Great.

Later,

Master wanted to choose one of us

to become his successor in the Chunxi Troupe.

Originally, I wanted to help him,

because he was my Senior brother.

But unexpectedly...

Senior brother.

Have some tea!

OK.

It's poison.

You want to harm me?

It wasn't me, it was Senior brother Yue.

I hate nothing more

than people who act one way in front of you and another behind your back.

If he wanted to hurt me,

then I will let him know

what it means to be the one that ends up getting hurt.

So

you did it back to him?

Yes.

I took a similar drug

and poisoned his throat.

From then on,

his voice was broken,

and he could sing no more.

Until one day,

Master suddenly told him to sing,

and he could sing again,

moreover, he sang even better than before.

All these years,

I've never understood it,

but I never guessed,

someone else was singing for him.

He became famous for the song "The Best Perfume",

becoming Yangzhou's most famous person.

As long as he sang, the seats would sell out.

And I

could only sit there behind the cold stage.

But the heavens have eyes.

He died not long after he achieved fame.

It is true that doing evil, brings retribution.

No one can avoid it.

No one can avoid it.

So the wind chimes in Langyuan

were made by you?

Yes.

That year, Yun Zheyue died such a strange death

that I've always had nightmares.

After that, I was seriously ill,

my voice was not the same as before.

I think,

is it because his spirit has never left?

So

I bought the Chunxi Troupe

and asked a master of fengshui

to rearrange Langyuan's design.

And I hung wind chimes to chase away spirits in every room.

But ever since then,

every night in the wind and rain,

Langyuan resounds with the sound of singing.

People in the troupe also saw

the scene when Yun Zheyue died.

Long love, short hatred.

Everyone thought that there were spirits in Langyuan,

and because of that,

those in the troupe

gradually walked away.

I had no choice but to take the Chunxi Troupe

and leave that place.

It's all in the past,

But if I could do it again,

I certainly would do things differently.

If what you say is true,

then I will agree

to your condition.

Really?

You will really let me go?

Thank you, Your Excellency.

Thank you, Your Excellency.

Your Excellency, do you believe the words of the Master?

The playwright is a madman,

the one watching the play is a fool.

You think I trust him?

So why did you agree?

The records of the Embroidered Uniform Guards

contain many strange things.

While there is thunder and lightning,

it can display sounds and images of the past,

and the compass needle will be invalidated.

Those who experience it are like us,

under the stimulation of a certain sound,

and with eyes that cannot discern real from fake,

we will gradually fall into an illusion.

Blood?

Therefore, this is not a man-made illusion.

In deserted Langyuan,

there are no spirits.

In the capital,

weren't you always good at analysis?

How come coming to Yangzhou,

your eyes and brain have become inferior?

It is because when the sky is falling in, you have someone to help you,

so you don't need to use your brain anymore?

Your Excellency, you're joking.

Of course not.

If they sky really was falling in,

I would jump up and help you catch it.

Actually, I saw his hand,

and soft skin.

Forget about hard work,

he's never even held a needle.

Using needles to kill someone,

would require how many years of practicing martial arts?

The calluses on their hands would be as clear as day.

But,

he wouldn't have to do it himself.

Right?

Since you managed to deduce that,

then let's split up and investigate.

Go and interrogate Master.

See if you can find out any new clues.

Yes.

There aren't many people who know how to injure people using needles.

You,

investigate who in Yangzhou is good at using this item.

Pick out any suspicious people.

Yes.

Say it again.

I want to take Jinxia as my wife.

You ungrateful brat, are you trying to annoy me?

Have you forgotten about your marriage to Xi?

You'll just ignore the marriage I arranged for you,

and actually marry Jinxia?

Do you think of me, your father, as dead?

Father, I know that marriage should be decided by ones parents.

But you want me to marry Xi,

I just can't do it.

Why not?

Your relationship has always been very good, hasn't it?

All affairs Wu'an Sect, no matter how small or big,

are taken care of by Xier.

What is wrong with her?

Why can't she be the Master's Wife?

I'm telling you,

your birthdates are compatible,

if you marry her, you will have a promising future.

Who says that if our birthdates are compatible, I will have a promising future?

Moreover, I'm doing well enough as it is, right?

Either way, I have made up my mind to marry Jinxia,

no matter how much you disagree,

I will marry her.

I just came to tell you,

not ask for your approval.

I have made my mind up.

I'm preparing to give a betrothal gift to Yuan Jinxia.

You...

Do it! Once you've finished beating me,

allow me to marry Jinxia.

Marriage is not a joke.

How can you do this to Xier?

If it comes to it, I'll leave everything in the sect to her,

I'll take Jinxia from the Wu'an Sect.

Moreover, I have found someone

I want to live with for the rest of my life.

Xi will wish me happiness.

She understands me better than anyone else in this world.

She won't care what other people say.

Xier has sacrificed too much

for the Wu'an Sect.

She is the only daughter-in-law I will recognize,

no matter what you say,

there's no way I will agree.

If you want to get married, you must marry her.

Dad!

That would harm me and Xier.

Do you want to use marriage

to bind her to the Wu'an Sect her whole life?

I am not only your son,

I am also a man,

and I keep my promises.

I will never change.

Dad, I've made it clear to you today,

whether you accept this or not,

your daughter-in-law can only be Jinxia.

Go away!

Get out!

Get out!

Dad, your health is not good.

Do not get angry, it will endanger your health.

I will stay out of your sight.

Your Excellency.

Your Excellency, don't scare me.

Therefore, this is not a man-made illusion.

In deserted Langyuan, there are no spirits.

That day, I heard a child

singing "The Best Perfume".

Who actually is this fake spirit?

Who was that child?

Junior Brother.

Remember when we went to Gusu to set up a branch?

We were attacked by the Caoyun Sect.

You could have easily escaped alone.

But you came back to save me and suffered severe injuries.

You almost died.

The moment you pulled my hand,

I decided,

that for the rest of my life,

I would be by your side protecting you.

Xi.

What's wrong?

I have a favor to ask you,

and you have to agree.

What?

I want us both to go to the governor's inn together,

and propose to Jinxia.

The engagement made between you and I three years ago,

everyone in Yangzhou knows.

While Jinxia has been in Yangzhou, she must have heard.

I'm afraid she'll mind,

so I hope you will come with me.

She will know

that you and I are pure,

and there is no love of that kind between us.

And it will also silence the people.

I know you will help me, right?

It turns out that you're not a heartless person,

you just haven't found the object of your love.

You really have grown up.

If I hadn't grown up,

how could I be someone else's husband or be a father?

Xi, please help me.

You are the best person in this world to me.

You, as soon as you open your mouth you talk like him,

quite like the Master.

Of course, I'm his son.

Xi, it's a deal then.

Long love, short hatred.

Making people miserable.

Minds linked together.

Are you the child from that day?

Aren't you the little devil?

Who taught you this song?

A lady...a lady taught me.

A lady?

Don't you mean a man?

Then tell me who she is?

What does she look like? Where is she now?

Don't cry, little boy.

Do not cry!

Do not cry!

Do not cry! Do not cry!

Xiao Bao, Xiao Bao don't cry!

Xiao Bao, don't cry!

Is this your child?

He is my son.

What did you do?

Sorry, I'm a government officer.

I just want to investigate a case.

Whose song is

this child singing?

Normally we work outside.

He always liked to run to this desolate place.

I don't know who taught him.

Official, is there anything wrong?

Do not cry!

Xiao Bao, I told you already,

you can't come here and play anymore.

This place isn't clean.

Is that clear?

A lady?

But unexpectedly...

It's poison.

Do you want to harm me?

Could it be...?

I went to Langyuan

and discovered something.

Your Excellency, I have an idea.

I do not know whether I'm right or not.

But now there is no evidence.

Hypothetically, Master did not lie,

that year he also investigated the Chunxi Troupe

and could not find this replacement singer.

If it wasn't for this person

who kept hidden so carefully,

our direction wouldn't have gone astray, right?

At first, we knew

of the existence of a replacement singer,

so we targeted our attention on the master.

Not only was he suited for the role,

but most importantly, he was male.

But that child said

the person who taught him to sing was a lady.

I've looked into it,

and that year, there were only three women in the Chunxi Troupe.

One elderly lady working in the kitchens, and two students.

Of them, one lady performed "The Best Perfume"

with Yun Zheyue.

And the other,

no news at all.

In the case records, there was no mention of her or anyone

related to her, so I had nowhere to start from.

It's like this person never existed.

For a person to be able to make two types of sounds,

both male and female, is very rare.

The killer escaped very carefully.

In this case, both the killer and the person behind it

are not difficult to predict.

The killer, we can easily catch,

but the person behind it, we cannot touch.

Zhou Xianyi embezzled the state's money,

now that he has died in prison,

I think we should report to the emperor

that this case is over.

If we can think of a good way

to get the killer to plead guilty directly,

that would be best.

Your Excellency, you know who the killer is?

I know.

Using needles to kill someone,

would require how many years of practicing martial arts?

The calluses on their hands would be as clear as day.

But there is no evidence.

If that's the case,

then I think you can continue to put on another play.

Another play?

Call the spirits out.

Draw the snake from its cave.

Mr. Lu.

Mr. Lu, sorry for keeping you waiting.

Mr. Wei is here.

Sorry for not greeting you in person.

Not at all, you are most polite.

Please.

Mr. Lu, please.

Mr. Lu called us here to see a play?

Why is the stage decorated like that?

Mr. Wei.

This is a play I just thought of a few days ago.

So

I deliberately invited you to comment together.

Please enjoy yourself.

Miss Shangguan, try some broad beans.

I just tried some, they're not bad.

If not, try some dried plums.

Sweet and sour, the girls like them.

What?

It was falling off!

Miss Shangguan.

You don't look so well.

Do you feel in discomfort?

We practiced really well.

What's going on?

I don't know.

Constable Yang, why are you paying attention to me?

I'm okay.

Miss Shangguan.

Are you still mad at me?

Even if you're busy with work,

you should get enough rest.

Right, whenever Jinxia is unwell,

I cook her a bowl of Siwu soup.

It strengthens the blood.

Why don't I go home and make a bowl for you,

and bring it here.

Constable Yang is concerned.

I am really okay.

Then...then that's OK.

There will be a thunderstorm tonight, won't there?

Why is there still no wind?

I'm exhausted!

I don't know.

That's right, isn't it?

Let's dance. Let's dance. Let's dance.

Please ask Mr. Lu,

where did your play come from?

The more I watch, the less I understand.

Mr. Wei, stay calm.

These days, due to Zhou Xianyi's case,

I'm really having a headache.

Yesterday, I coincidentally met a Taoist priest hidden in the mountains.

He showed me

his outstanding talent.

I immediately expanded my knowledge.

So,

I invited everyone to come together to bear witness.

What outstanding talent?

Call the spirits out.

Come on, come on, here.

The door of the sky is open, the door of the earth is open.

Open!

The dead men became a ghost, come here.

Long love, short hatred.

Making people...

Who are you?

Bright moonlight sees off youth.

Clouds melt, enlightening the return.

Yun Zheyue.

Right, he is dead, isn't he?

Is that a person or a ghost?
