A Female Student Arrives at the Imperial College

Episode 22

The Archive is a place for reading. It's not proper for you to behave this way.

What's not proper about this? You can't stand seeing someone
more attractive than you.

Miss Song, you should leave. Stop making it difficult for Qi.

All of you are always on Qi's side.
I can't stand it.

I'm not leaving either way.
You can drive me out if you can.

It's the first I heard anyone made such a request.

Very well then.

You... How dare you touch me?

Did you think the Song family is nothing?

Listen. Drag me out if you can!

Pardon me for doing this, then.

Zhuo... Zhuo Wen Yuan! Put me down!

Put me down!

Zhuo Wen Yuan! Put me down! Qiong Yu!

Everyone, get back to your reading. All right, there's nothing to see.

Put me down! Do you hear me? Zhuo Wen Yuan!

Miss Song, you can let go now.

Yin, are you all right?

Mr. Zhuo, you usually look considerate
towards women.

I didn't expect you to be this rude.

I do treat women nicely, except those who go against Sang Qi.

Both of you came to the Archive. You don't know the etiquette nor keep quiet.

I can't treat people like you nicely.

All right, I'm not so good at arguing. But Yin is different.

In Bianjing, Yin is not scared of anyone.

Yin.

All of you always take Qi's side
and bully me!

I clearly won the bet. But Director Chief Yan helped her got out of it.

Both of us are Young Ladies
of prestigious families. Where's the difference?

I know all of you say I'm arrogant, willful
and don't know my place behind my back.

But I'm doing this because I like him.

What did I do wrong? Where did I do wrong?

Enough.

- I...
- Calm down a bit.

If you keep making a scene,
it'll be more embarrassing.

What are you doing?

Nothing. It's rare to see you being so cute.

I forbid you to say that!

- I...
- I'm not badmouthing you.

I think

you behaving like this
is more lovable than being arrogant.

Why don't you change your behavior?

Lovable... Lovable?

All right. Stop bearing grudges against Sang Qi.

I lost to Yan Yun Zhi during the tournament.

When it comes to losing face,
I have it worst than you.

What is it again?

Are you going back home later? Wait for me for a moment. I'll send you.

Yin?

Why are you stunned?

Nothing.

Miss Song, let's go.

Father.

Isn't this our golden boy, Mr. Zhuo?

What brings you here?

Father, he sent me home.

Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Zhuo.

Mr. Zhuo, I'm already home.

You can leave now. We'll meet some other day.

Jia Yin, go back to your room first.

Grand Tutor Song,
I have something to discuss with you.

Let's go to my study.

This way, please.

Tell me, what is it?

Do you still remember
the warehouse that was confiscated?

Yes. Wasn't it cleaned up already?

It's not as clean as you thought.

May I ask

if you used that warehouse
for Miss Song's aromatic?

Yes, I did.

You should be careful now.

I'm afraid you're being watched now.

Is this true?

It's highly likely. You must be prepared.

I'm not badmouthing you.

I think you behaving like this is more lovable than being arrogant.

Why don't you change your behavior?

- Get out of my way!
- Leave!

I...

No one dares to push a woman in front of me.

Song Jia Yin, what's wrong with you?

You must remember that you're the future wife of Deputy Chief Yan.

You can't think of another man.

But

Mr. Zhuo is also one of the Four Bachelors of Bianjing.
He's also the top scholar of the imperial examination.

Even Father said that he's now a popular official.

He's no worse than Deputy Chief Yan.

The main point is, he treats me well.

What I meant is to marry
the most outstanding man in Bianjing.

But these two men have their own merits.

I have to give up one of them. It's so hard for me.

How can I choose

between these two people?

[A Place for the Talented]

[Gathering of Scholars]

I didn't know the Imperial College
has so many collections of books.

It'll be great if I can study here.

What's on your mind?

Imperial College used to recruit students
from prestigious families.

It rarely opens its enrollment to the public now.

If you can enroll here,
you'll have to thank heaven for its blessing.

Let me help you.

Everything is great here.

But there's a female teacher here that doesn't make sense.

I even heard Manager Sang
managed to enter the Imperial College

because she's the daughter
of the Grand Commandant.

Maybe opening it to the public

is just to make way for prestigious families
like the Sang family.

Exactly.

You're right.

I was indeed blessed because of my family
to study at the Imperial College.

However, passing the examination with honor and my official rank are based on my effort.

You can simply say whatever you want.

He's right about that.

I can prove it to you.

All right.

But it won't involve the horseback archery skill.

That's what you learn at home, which has nothing to do with the Imperial College.

Of course.

If I were to write an imperial examination article here, it'd be wasting your time.

The Archive is my workplace.

Why don't you test me here?
What do you think?

How do you want me to test you?

There are hundreds of books here.

Altogether, there are thousands of books.

It may be a lot, but I learned them all by heart.

Pick any book.

As long it's here, I can find it for you.

All right.

"Laozi Zhi Gui". It's not that hard, right?

"Laozi Zhi Gui".

"Laozi Zhi Gui"

is written by the Taoist hermit
of the Western Han Dynasty, Yan Zun.

The interpretation of Laozi
is expressed in verses.

But I recommend reading Heshang Gong's Commentaries along with this book.

It should be more beneficial.

What do you think?

Is this the book you want?

Yes.

I indeed enter the Imperial College
as the Grand Commandant's daughter.

But I received far more criticisms than others.

The so-called opening to the public
is not a gimmick.

It's to let everyone treat every student fairly.

There's no need to be particular
nor criticize others.

They only need to study
at the Imperial College without worries.

- She's right.
- That's right.

She has a point.

We only need to study.

Qi,

that was a great defense.

It was rational, and you know
when to advance and retreat.

That's because you taught me well
and showed good examples.

I rarely compliment you.
Why are you flattering me now?

I was complimenting myself.

You're my favorite person.

So I should compliment you
on raising your value a little.

It would show that I have great taste.

Moreover, from now on, you'll have to work hard to make me proud.

Manager Sang.

Then, I'll get back to work.

I'm going to strive hard now
so I can make you proud.

- Let's drink.
- Here.

Qi Lang, there you are.

Why are we meeting today?

Isn't your birthday soon?

I want to know if you have plans.

I've forgotten about it.

I've been too busy
with Qi's appointment at the Archive.

I know you don't like making it grand every year.

So we waited until the right moment
to remind you.

So?

Are we going to have a meal like before?

We should let it go this year.

I have other plans.

See? I told you Qi Lang would ignore us this year.

So you lost.

Qi Lang, I was wrong about you.

How's the investigation on the warehouse?

It's falling into place.

Today, we found
a group of suspicious salt merchants.

We're about it capture them.
You can wait without worries.

I hope we can find out who's the mastermind.

Let's have a drink. We'll talk about it later.

Young Master, do you have other plans
for your birthday this year?

How come I don't know anything about it?

Qi will make arrangements
for my birthday this year.

But does Miss Sang know your birth date?

Sister. Sister!

Sister.

Why are you here?

I'm on duty now.
Can't we talk at home tonight?

I can't. It's urgent.

I can't wait until tonight.

Now that you have all grown up and become an official, and my matter is not important anymore?

Of course, not.

What is it?

I ran into a huge problem lately.

I want to know what you think.

Between Deputy Chief Yan and Zhuo Wen Yuan, who is better as your brother-in-law?

Sister, I understand your dilemma.

Lately, I've been thinking about something too.

Do you think I should be the Chancellor or the Grand Commandant?

You spent too much time with Yan Yan
that you started teasing me.

Sister, it hurts.

Let go. I was wrong.

If my subordinates saw this,
how am I supposed to face them?

It's the most important event in my life.
You should be more serious about it.

I thought you wanted to marry into the Yan family.

Why does Zhuo Wen Yuan come into the picture?

I did think of Deputy Chief because he's the only one in Bianjing who's worthy of me.

But Zhuo Wen Yuan has been more popular lately.

The most important thing
is that he treats me nicely.

When did that happen?

You've never told me before.

Stop messing around first.

What matters most
is who I should pick between these two.

It's so frustrating.

I have an idea.

It's the most important thing in my life.
Are you going to let this coin decide?

The head is Deputy Chief Yan.

The tail is Zhuo Wen Yuan.

Trust me.

Flip it.

It's head.

For an important thing like this,
it should be decided after three rounds.

I'll do it again.

Since you're swayed, that means you're not thinking about Deputy Chief Yan, but Zhuo Wen Yuan.

You have a point.

Not bad, my brother.

After you've become an official,
you've become smarter now.

I'm glad to know that.

Since I've already decided,
I'm going to tell Sang Qi.

All right, you can get back to work.
I'm leaving now.

Let's go.

[Gathering of Scholars]
Qi.

Miss Song, you're here again.

But you dress more decently this time.

What do you want to tell me?

Don't disturb the students reading.

Qi, is it confirmed
between you and Deputy Chief?

Although I'll be the official wife and you'll be the concubine when we marry into the Yan family,

it'll be better to have a person all to myself.

I'm here to tell you that I'm not going to fight you over Deputy Chief. I'll let you have him.

What is it that you're up to now?

I've taken a fancy on Mr. Zhuo.

Mr. Zhuo?

Zhuo Wen Yuan?

Enough. I've already made it clear to you, so stop asking.

That's all for now.

Let's go.

Qi.

Deputy Chief, what are you doing here?

Today is the First Day of the Eighth Month.

It's customary to sort out
the Imperial College's registers.

I'm here especially to help you.

You're so nice to me.

Let's go.

Why is it messy again?

Qi, I found the register the year I studied here.

See if you can find my name.

It's my brother!

Yes, this is your brother.

I should be on the next page.

Can you find my name?

[Yan Yun Zhi, Birthday, the Eighth Day of the Eighth Month]

Shu...

Who's Shu Zhe Yu?

Yan Yan!

Deputy Chief, what brings you here?

I'm here to see you.

See me?

Did I do something wrong at Imperial College again?

I've already graduated from Imperial College!

Don't tell me you're also in charge of the Prefecture Court.

Stop talking nonsense.

Do you know what day is the Eighth Day of the Eighth Month?

Eighth Day of the Eighth Month?

Let me think.

I know!

It's the day I stayed at the Grand Commandant's Residence for a month.

It's a day related to me.

It's related to you?

I have no idea.

Forget it.

To make you read between the lines is a waste of time.

I'll just tell you.

The Eighth Day of the Eighth Month is my birthday.

It's your birthday?

I see.

Are you going to treat me to dinner?

You...

Forget it.

I want you to deliver these words to Sang Qi word for word.

Not a word less.

Tell Sang Qi the Eighth Day of the Eighth Month is my birthday.

Why don't you tell her yourself?

Don't ask questions. Go now.

I'll go now.

Where are you going? It's the wrong way.

What day is The Eighth Day of the Eighth Month?

- The Grand...
- You...

It's your birthday.

Can I count on him?

[Agarwood]
Master Sang,

I ran into Deputy Chief at the Prefecture Court just now.

He told me...

Yan Xiao Lang, why are you back so late?

Director Chief delayed me. He was...

I shouldn't have waited if I knew.

Why are you waiting for me?

Yan Yan, you've been staying with us for a month, right?

Why can't you clean up your room?

- Lian Pian can't even go in your room.
- That's right.

She's waiting for you to come back to clean it up.

I've been helping you to stop her for a while.

Why would you stop her?

Why are you so stupid? Think about it.

What if she opens the door

to find a smelly and dirty room where she can't even step a foot inside?

What would she think of you?

What are you going to do after that?

Since you're back, I'll go clean up your room.

Wait right there!

Stop. Come in when I let you.

Let's enjoy the swing.

Let's swing.

[Imperial College]

[A Place for the Talented]

[Spring and Autumn Annals]

I reminded Qi that it's my birthday today, not because I wanted her to celebrate it for me.

I didn't want her to regret missing it in the future.

Deputy Chief.

Qi.

Deputy Chief.

Today is...

Deputy Chief, what is the hour now?

Past noon.

Past noon?

Father told me to return home at noon. There's something urgent at home.

Help me watch the Archive.

I'm already late.

- Qi, today is...
- By the way,

there's a joyous occasion at my home today.

Please come later.

What joyous occasion?

Qi...

[Grand Commandant's Residence]

Qi, why did you ask me to come here?
What's the joyous occasion?

You'll know once we go in.

Why is everyone having their meals at my place?

Grand Commandant Sang, forgive me for troubling you.

Since you're here, have a seat.

Qi prepared these for days.

I thought these were prepared for me.

Qi, did you prepare all these for me?

Deputy Chief, why do you say so?

Lian Pian prepared all these to celebrate Yan Xiao Lang's stay at our place for a month.

She prepared so much delicious food.

Right?

Deputy Chief, for you to say this, do you have good news to share?

Nothing.

It's nothing.

Let's eat.

- Thank you, Young Lady.
- Here, Deputy Chief.

Here you go, Lian Pian.

You should eat more since you prepared it.

Thank you.

Here.

You should eat more too.

Here, have this.

[Grand Aspiration]
Here, Deputy Chief.

- Lian Pian.
- Thank you, Young Lady.

Pour the wine.

Let me pour you a glass.

Here.

- Here, Father.
- Pour a bit more.

Why did you stop eating?

- Let's all drink.
- Come.

Let's drink.

Pour me another glass.

- Did you prepare all these?
- Yes.

A toast for you.

Lian Pian, eat more.

Where's my glass?

Pour me a glass.

- Let's drink.
- Here.

You look unhappy.

No, I'm not.

You must tell if you're not happy.

You'll feel better after you let it out.

Why are you saying that?

Drinking wine with close friends,

with stars all over the sky above and my loved one next to me,

why would I be unhappy?

Since it's not that, it means you have regrets.

- I already said it's nothing.
- Because I didn't celebrate your birthday.

You... Did you know?

Of course, I know.

Then...

Do you like it?

I made it especially for you.

I stayed up for several nights.

Of course, I like it.

Thank you.

Now, you accept it pretty quickly.

I wonder who was the one you refused it back then.

This is different from that one.

See this?

This embroidery is better than that one.

It's so pretty.

I learned this for many nights after pestering Lian Pian.

It's more troublesome than martial arts.

I appreciate it.

But you know it's my birthday.

When I tried hinting at you, why did you pretend not to know?

So, you knew it's called hinting.

First, you handed me the register at the Archive.

After that, you sent Bai Shi to beat around the bush with Lian Pian.

- Finally, you went to see Yan Xiao Lang. Am I right?
- Yes.

You can just tell me directly.

Why did you have to set a trap?

I knew you liked doing this.

So I had to get back at you.

I've always known your date of birth.

But since you like to give people a hard time, I should make you suffer for a change.

What do you call this again?

"Having a taste of your own medicine".

Do you like it?

Yes.

Almost as charming as me.

But I still hope you can be more direct next time.

Of course.

I've learned my lessons today.

This is the biggest game I've set up.

I even had to pay for the price.

You sound unhappy about it.

- I'm happy.
- No, you're not.

- Yes, I am.
- You're not happy at all.

I am happy about it. I wouldn't dare...
Why would I not be happy?

That's more like it. Swing it.

All right.

Higher. Higher!

Higher.

Young Lady!

Young Lady, something bad has happened!

Young Lady, something happened.
The Yan family is in trouble.

Prefecture Court raided the Yan Residence.

Grand Preceptor and the rest are arrested.

Mr. Yan and Lian Pian have rushed over.

Master said to find someone
to clarify this matter.

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

Let's go.

[Grand Preceptor's Residence]
Stop. You're not allowed to enter.

Yan Yan! Lian Pian!

Young Lady. What happened?

Why is Grand Preceptor Yan arrested?

I'm not sure either. I was stopped when I arrived.

They refused to say anything
and made me wait here.

Something has happened at my home.
What's the point of waiting?

Yan Xiao Lang.

Calm down.

Since this matter involves Grand Preceptor Yan,
it must not be a small matter.

These guards wouldn't know if you asked them.
I'll ask Yan San Lang.

Song Luo Tian?

Song Luo Tian, explain to me, what's going on?

Guards, arrest him.

- What are you doing?
- What are you doing?

Stop it! Mr. Song, something happened to the Grand Preceptor.

We want to clarify this matter quickly.

It's not the time for you two to bicker now.

Who are you to speak up?

Do you think you can order me around because the Grand Commandant accepted you as his goddaughter?

You're still a servant girl, no matter what.
Out of my way!

Song Luo Tian, you...

Sang Qi, stop.

What exactly is going on?

Deputy Chief Yan, the Prefecture Court
had issued an order for the arrest.

Please don't stop us.

We would not delay the Prefecture Court
from arresting them.

But you must have a reason to arrest him, right?

Qi Lang! Sang Qi!
[Grand Preceptor's Residence]

Calm down. Let him make the arrest. I'll explain it to you later.

- Let's go.
- Go.

- Go.
- Yan Yan.

- Yan Xiao Lang!
- Lian Pian.

San Lang, we'll wait for you at Grand Commandant's Residence.

All right.

[Grand Preceptor's Residence]

Let's go.

- Official Yan, what exactly is going on?
- Water.

Official Yan, say something.

Lian Pian, let him catch his breath first.

Things have already come to this.
There's no use to worry now.

I guess Sang Qi is more thoughtful.

But this matter happens
to the Yan family too suddenly.

So it's natural for you to get anxious.

Why is the Yan family
being investigated so suddenly?

Speaking of it, it's very odd.

Didn't you tell me to investigate the salt route based on the clues at the warehouse?

Based on our deduction, the goods of Xizhao, the salt grains in the warehouse,

and the fragrance of Song Jia Yin are linked together.

If nothing goes wrong while following these clues,

we should get a hold of something about the Song family.

That's right. I investigated based on our deductions.

I was indeed fishy.

It led me to a salt merchant named Ding Hao.

We've arrested this man.

He obviously looks like a coward.

Before we even started torturing him,
he turned in his superior himself.

If that's the case, wouldn't that
lead exactly to the Song family?

Why is the Yan family being implicated?

Let me finish. I thought it was the Song family too.

But Ding Hao insisted that the Yan family made him sell smuggled salt

and official titles for the Grand Preceptor's Residence.

Also, it wasn't a baseless accusation.

He turned in a full set of the ledger
with every transaction recorded.

Wait a minute.

Did you say he turned in a full set of
the ledger with everything recorded clearly?

Exactly.

All the dates, the sum of money, and those involved in the transactional are recorded in the ledger.

Those involved in illegal salt trading
don't make a set of a ledger.

- This is clearly a setup.
- I'm aware of that too.

But I dare not keep this matter a secret.

So I can only report this to His Majesty.

His Majesty gave his order the same night to capture Grand Preceptor

and seal the Grand Preceptor's Residence.

Everyone in the Yan family will be investigated.

Even Yan Xiao Lang is not an exception.

Will Yan Yan be tortured?

You can rest assured of this.
He'll be at my Prefecture Court.

I'll watch him so that nothing will happen to him.

The Song family still found out.

But I think they found out not too long ago.

It looks like they set up this plot in a rush.

The evidence appears solid,
but it's full of loopholes.

We must prove the Yan family's innocence quickly
before they make another move.

What should we do now?

San Lang, can I see Ding Hao?

Sure, you can. You've always helped
the Prefecture Court anyway.

No one will say anything if you go.

But he can only be brought for trial now
because he has already confessed.

- So we can't torture him now.
- Won't he keep on accusing the Yan family then?

There's no other way now.

Qi Lang, it's up to your methods now.

You said Ding Hao is timid.

Yes.

Deputy Chief, put me in prison.

I was wrong! I won't do it again!

After we finish interrogating this criminal,
it'll be your turn.

Official, let me explain...

Save it for later.

- Take him away.
- Yes!

Get up!

Official, let me explain.

- Go!
- Official!

- Official!
- Quiet!

I...

- Move it!
- I...

Go in!

Wait here for now. You will be interrogated soon.

Let's go.

Were you the one who was interrogated just now?

Stop talking. I can't take it anymore.

I don't want to remember it.

I don't want to recall it.

I don't even dare to remember.

It was extremely inhumane and ruthless.

I dare not think back.

You don't look like you were tortured.

Who says there must be traces
after being tortured?

Have you heard of suffocation?

- No.
- It was my first time too.

They placed this sheet of paper on your face.

They sprayed a mouthful of water on it.

If you keep quiet,

they'll place another layer and spray a mouthful of water on it until you can't breathe!

Just like what they did to me!

Listen.

Being unable to endure it comes second.

The main thing is there's no trace at all.

There's no way to reason it.

It's useless!

The third layer...

The third layer was my last draw.

Do... Do they even show any respect to the law?

Are you serious?

If they disrespect the law, we won't be thrown in here.

Then... Then what did you do to get caught?

Do you know about the arrest of Master Yan's family some time ago?

I have a close relationship
with their Young Master.

That's why I'm captured.

I can't even catch my breath.

I can't even breathe!

Here they come!

Help me up! Quickly!

Hide! Hide!

I was wrong. I was wrong! Stop punishing me!

I won't do it again!

I'm not here for you this time.

They're looking for you.

Guards! Take her away.

- Yes.
- Yes.

- I will...
- I...

I don't want to go!

May luck be with you!

You must live!

Stay alive!

Sit.

I said, sit!

Ding Hao, right?

Yes.

I'm sure you're aware of why we're meeting here.

- I understand.
- No, you don't understand.

Isn't this about salt smuggling?

Salt smuggling is a small matter
that's not worth mentioning.

What I want is the Yan family.

Yan... Yan family?

I already told you everything.

Yes, you did confess.

But what you confessed
is not enough for me to convict them.

I'll give you one more chance.

If you don't tell me everything,

I will never let you go until I get them convicted.

Official, I've told you everything I know.

You're making it difficult for me. Guards!

- Yes.
- Yes.

Official.

Official!
- I shall see how long

you can keep this
for the Yan family.

Official.

Official! Official.

All right, I'll tell you!

Official, I'll tell you!

Official, I'll tell you everything I know!

I'll confess everything.

Official.

Official, I'll tell you everything I know.

[Prison]

Then, we'll start from the Yan family's ledger.

All right.
