[Miss Chun is a Litigator]

[Episode 7]

Grandfather.

I thought

you would come to me tomorrow.

Have a seat.

Your father didn't allow you

to get involved with Lord Han

for your good.

I know.

But now the two lords appreciate me

and asked me to go on patrol with them.

The present they gave me

is to help our family get rid of the military registration.

Isn't it always

your wish？

If getting rid of the military registration

made you suffer,

I would rather

give up this wish.

But checking around prisons and investigating cases

are both what I want to do.

Grandfather, think about it.

We are a family of soldiers.

Fathers and sons will both become soldiers.

Father is young now.

I'm his only daughter.

If I have a younger brother in the future,

can you bear to see him

be destined to join the army?

He can't take the civil examination，

or do

what he likes.

Your father and I

will find a way to solve the registration problem.

But you're a girl.

It's inappropriate for you

to follow them and check around the prisons.

I've never heard of it.

I know if I do so,

people will say that I am not gentle and refined.

They will say that I go out as a girl and no one wants to marry me.

But if I do a good job,

won't it change

people's previous stereotypes

about women?

Don't use the method

with which you deal with criminals in court

to deal with me.

I only know that it's unreasonable.

Intolerable!

Grandfather,

Father and you are afraid that others will judge me.

Then dote on me, protect me,

and make it up to me.

Naughty girl.

Please help me persuade my father.

Child,

do you know

what is your father's biggest problem?

He's afraid of letting down your mother.

No one can succeed on the path

you chose.

Your father is afraid that

he won't be able to protect you in the end.

But since no one

can succeed on the path,

if you don't let me try,

how can you know that

I can't do it either?

If Mother were here,

she would support me.

Mother used to study law.

What's Father's attitude then?

Does he know that Mother also wanted to become a litigator

but failed and felt sorry for herself?

Wait a minute.

Since you studied law,

your father has been unwilling to throw away

any piece of paper you wrote.

When he didn't have more space to keep them,

he left them with me.

I thought that

Guo burned it.

Look.

This was the first time

you tried to write an indictment

when you were twelve.

Look.

This one

was full of articles of law you wrote from memory

unhappily all night

when your father scolded you

that you didn't focus on poetry.

Your father

often doesn't sleep at night.

He keeps worrying when

looking at these indictments.

He doesn't want to restrict you

from doing what you like.

But this thing

is like a knife

hanging above his head.

Child,

when fighting against the evil

conflicts with your safety,

what will you choose?

How will your father and I

face it?

Go to your father when you have an answer.

Dashan, I said it for you.

But in my heart,

I don't agree with you.

I know what you're worried about.

But she has talent and inheritance.

She can't hide it.

If she can't,

I can't protect her.

Father,

I have promised

Tumi's mother that

I won't let Tumi

repeat the same mistake as her mother.

If you don't let her repeat,

she will be unhappy

and be depressed for the rest of her life.

Children

should walk on their own.

Who can

stay with them forever?

Back then, I wasn't optimistic about

your marriage.

But now,

have you ever regretted it?

Of course not.

It is the happiest thing in my life

that I could marry Tumi's mother

and

give birth to Tumi.

I don't think

Tumi's mother would regret it either.

You're awake.

Grand Secretary.

Don't get up.

You just took the medicine.

You're still weak.

Where is this place?

We are still in Bianzhou.

You were in a coma because of poison yesterday.

Fortunately, Jinyi sent a message back.

I arrived in time so that I could save you.

Come on.

But not long ago,

when Left Envoy came,

I had taken some medicine.

In the past, taking medicine once can be effective

for months.

Why did it attack me in advance?

You have taken the medicine for too long.

It's getting worse every year.

Since it happened this time,

you need to take medicine

more frequently.

I'm useless.

It's not that you're useless.

You've always been eager to excel.

Think about it.

How long has it been since you went back to the Pavilion?

I was just busy with

my work.

The work outside is important.

I don't blame you

if you don't come back.

But the pain of the poison

is like a thousand ants piercing your heart.

How can you treat it

perfunctorily?

Except for me,

what about Ayili?

Aren't you afraid that she'll worry about you?

How is Li?

Except for missing you every day,

she is fine.

That's good.

Young Master.

I'm taking advantage of my seniority,

I still have to advise you.

A tired bird needs to return to its nest.

If you can

get the inkstone done this time in Youzhou,

go back to the Pavilion early.

Go back to the Pavilion?

It's not easy.

In Juzi's heart,

I'm an unworthy descendant

What's the difference between me and a dead person?

Mowu Pavilion...

I'm afraid I can't go back.

Young Master.

My lady, are you going out?

Be quiet. Don't let dad hear you.

My Lady,

Master was so angry

because of the patrol yesterday.

If there's nothing important today,

don't go out.

Or you'll be blamed again.

I'm going to see Lord Kang.

I must go.

Are you still going

to check around prisons?

Guo,

we are women.

We were born

to be imprisoned in the inner mansion.

Every year,

we have to face this small world in the house.

Checking around prisons with Lord Kang

and seeing how big the outside world

may be the only chance

in my life.

So I won't

give up easily.

Grand Secretary.

Don't see me off. He's asleep.

I heard that you and Young Master

helped the girl

called Chun Tumi a lot.

The world is dangerous.

As the young master,

it's better to save trouble.

When he gets better,

I will suggest him too.

Yes.

I've been looking for Lord Kang for a day,

but I haven't seen him.

I can only wait until tomorrow.

Little girl,

where have you been so late?

Lord Han?

I'm not blaming you,

but why do you always go out?

It's none of your business.

Lord Han!

Since you have agreed to go on patrol,

and mentioned the present,

you are

a subordinate of Kang Zhengyuan.

How dare you talk back to your superior?

Why did you bring me here?

Put me down.

Are you afraid?

I...

Are you here to drink?

This is good wine.

The Three Drunk Flowers in Bianzhou

is fruitier

than ordinary wine.

Since you're back so late,

it doesn't matter if you stay longer.

You're forcing me.

Yes.

I just like to force you.

You can't go down anyway.

Let's just take it as it comes.

Last time I helped you.

When I went back,

I told Zheng everything

according to what you said.

Zheng taught me a lesson too.

You dragged me here

to make amends?

If I say

I just came here

to tease you. Do you believe it?

I'm very grateful to you and Lord Kang.

Because you gave me an opportunity

to go on patrol.

But can't you be like

Lord Kang?

Get down to business.

After that,

do things you should do.

Because he doesn't

want to see you as much as I do.

I think it is because

Lord Kang has no time for you.

So you came out.

Yes.

He wants to write to his mother.

He has no time to talk to me.

What do people write

when writing to their mothers?

Today is my mother's death anniversary.

What do you do

at your mother's death anniversary?

We don't have a death anniversary.

You don't have a death anniversary too?

My father and grandfather think

it's not necessary to commemorate someone in some form.

Just keep her in your heart

and think about her every day.

Then she will be with you every day.

Then we are the opposite.

My mother made a mistake.

It was just

jealous things.

Unfortunately, she was not as open-minded as you.

She couldn't get over it.

So she found a day casually

and

killed herself easily.

The royal inner courtyard

can't tolerate

someone like my mother.

So they

erased all her existence

Erased one's existence?

They erased her name

on the clan book

and burned all her belongings.

Let me show you something.

This is the lawbook

my mother left me.

There are some notes written by her.

This is my treasure.

It inspired me

to follow my mother's ambition

and be an upright litigator.

Your mother left you something.

At least you have something to think about.

My mother

left me nothing.

That's not true.

Your mother should have

thick eyebrows, big eyes,

a small mouth like a cherry,

and small earlobes.

She looked gentle and cute, right?

How do you know that?

My mother didn't even leave

a portrait.

I knew it from you.

So,

you are the best evidence

of your mother's existence.

Tumi,

let me teach you

how to comfort people correctly, okay?

I...

There's a meteor.

Meteor?

Where is the meteor?

Just now...

It disappeared.

I heard that

if a man and a woman see a meteor

at the same time,

it means that

they are destined to get married.

We were so close today.

So close?

So close.

Are you drunk?

You start to talk nonsense.

Why are you so annoying?

You are

the most annoying person.

Do you really believe

there's a meteor?

I won't talk to you.

I really have to go.

My goodness,

you're finally back.

Master has looked for you

for several times today.

If you didn't come back,

I would be

killed.

From now on...

Father.

Father, what's the matter?

Nothing.

I just came to see you.

Have you finished packing?

You allow me to go to check around prisons?

I knew you were the best.

I was wrong.

Before making this decision,

I should have discussed it with you.

I shouldn't have acted on my own

and made you sad.

I'm not sad.

What should I be sad about?

I know you protect me and spoil me.

Everyone says that

women can't touch the law.

But you spoil me

so that I can do whatever I want.

Tumi.

I know learning a lot and

working for the people

are what you decided to do

when you started studying law.

If a person

really wants to do something,

he should try his best.

No problem.

I'll go with you.

After all, I'll be there for you.

I will protect you.

However,

when I'm not there one day,

you still need to do things well.

You have to protect yourself

with your ability.

You won't be away.

Dad will always be with me.

Silly girl.

Young Master.

This is the medicine for this month.

Take it on time.

Take care.

I heard that you have met

a female litigator recently.

Yes.

It's not easy

for a woman to become a litigator.

I also heard that

the female litigator was close to Han Wuwei

and Kang Zhengyuan.

Yes.

Make good use of her.

But you must know your place.

Get the inkstone done as soon as possible.

After you left,

Ayili loved to sit outside

the hut where you read books before.

Although she didn't say it,

but deep down,

she is hoping for her brother to return.

Don't worry, Grand Secretary.

I will go

wherever Han Wuhu is

in Youzhou.

Please.

Young Master, you have always been sensible.

I can rest assured

to entrust it to you.

You don't have to

worry too much about Juzi.

I'm always there planning for you.

Grand Secretary,

I have a request.

Is there anything

you can't say to me?

Li and I have been apart for too long.

I want to see her.

OK.

I'll remember it.

Come on.

Okay, Young Master. Don't see me off.

Young Master, what did Grand Secretary say?

Young Master, what happened?

Pack up and go to Youzhou.

What about Ayili?

He promised me that

he would bring Li

to see me the next time he visits me.

Isn't that good?

He mentioned Chun Tumi.

Chun Tumi?

Could it be Shen Wei?

No.

Could it be that

Grand Secretary has someone else

to keep an eye on us?

Be careful during this period.

Stay away from the Chun family.

Grand Secretary doesn't allow you to get close to

Chun Tumi?

He wants me to take advantage of Chun Tumi.

Isn't that good?

Jinyi,

think about it.

Once outsiders

be involved in the affairs of our pavilion,

how many people can be alive?

Besides,

the inkstone

is the top priority now.

Other than Han Wuwei,

we shouldn't get involved with

other men or affairs

to avoid distraction.

How's your packing going?

Almost done.

Don't touch it.

You don't understand it.

Who said I don't understand?

It sounds like

I'm illiterate.

His Majesty also praised me for being brave and meticulous.

Yes.

You have a rough face, but you're meticulous.

But...

Don't touch them.

Who wants to touch your stuff?

Where is your lawbook?

Well...

I've long remembered it.

I didn't bring it.

You didn't bring it?

You don't understand it.

I'll give Chun Tumi some books.

You can't give her my books.

You've already memorized it.

Do you need it?

Every time I read it, I get something new.

Sometimes,

I have to read it

when I don't know how to sentence.

Yesterday, I noticed that Chun Tumi

valued her lawbook

It turned out that it was a book her mother left for her.

The pages were almost torn.

I don't know how many times she has repaired it.

Since she was young,

she has only read this lawbook

and she has had so many feelings and experiences.

She is such a little girl

who loves law!

If she is lucky enough to read

a whole set of law books,

how happy will she be?

Right?

Right?

Yes.

She values the book

her mother left for her.

It's called missing her mother.

Yes.

If you give my books to her,

and the notes on them were written by me,

will she miss me?

No way.

I'll ask His Majesty for one set.

Cheapskate.

Honey,

what took you so long?

Now that you've become Captain.

Captain should

have his air.

I'll make you a new military uniform

later.

As Captain,

the most important thing for me is to set an example

and train the soldiers well.

As the mistress,

the most important thing for you is to take care of the family,

Dad and Tumi.

Yes.

By the way,

you need to get ready quickly.

Since I have been promoted,

I have to treat the men in the army

to have a meal

and invite the neighbors

to have fun in our house.

I'm joining the team soon

to protect Lord Kang to check around prisons.

If something happens,

you will need neighbors to help you.

OK.

Check around prisons?

So you'll be away for a long time?

Probably a few months.

Well,

Tumi will miss you.

Don't worry.

Tumi is going north

with me.

She can also meet

her mother's relatives there.

You can't go.

I...

I'll be afraid when I am alone.

If you are afraid,

when I set off,

you can go back to

your parents' home and

live for a while.

No.

Honey,

I will worry about you

day and night when you are out for work.

Since you can take Tumi,

why don't you take me with you?

Nonsense.

Going on a business trip is not a joke.

Commander Han also goes alone.

He is kind enough to

let Tumi go with me.

I'm going out in a few days.

Inviting the neighbors,

entertaining my men,

and packing the luggage...

I have a lot of things to do.

You have to help me to arrange for them.

Don't miss anything.

I'm full.

Honey...

Come on.

Come on. Let's drink.

Let's drink.

Come on.

Let's drink.

Dad.

Slow down.

-Hurry up. -Father,

I want to be a general when I grow up.

My son wants to be a general when he grows up.

General is great. He will be a general.

Fine.

I'll show you

what a real general is.

Come on. Cheers.

Everyone,

my son wants to be a general.

The real general is here.

General spent a lot today.

[Three Drunk Flowers]

He bought us

top-quality Three Drunk Flowers.

It's soft and sweet.

This wine is not cheap, right?

I'm going on a long trip.

Please take care of

our family.

This wine is really good.

Brothers,

elders.

Come on.

I'm here to propose a toast to everyone

with Three Drunk Flowers

to express my gratitude.

Okay.

Enjoy yourselves.

Come on.

Cheers.

Please.

Please.

-It's great. -Tumi,

I didn't expect to drink

the tea you made.

Madam Zhang,

what are you talking about?

You're a celebrity now.

I've always wanted to ask

whether your legs twitch

when you go to the court,

I'm fine.

Tumi is not an ordinary girl.

She helps the neighbors

to solve problems.

I said earlier that she could achieve great things.

When did you say that?

I said that.

Really?

I've never heard of it.

At that time...

Mrs. Wang, you were all there, right?

My Lady, why are you here?

Guo,

I saw Xiaoqin

sneak out just now.

These days, they have known that

my father and I are leaving,

but nothing has happened.

I'm afraid something might happen.

Hurry up and follow her.

Okay.

Guo, come in.

What took you so long?

Where's Xiaoqin?

My legs are about to break.

My lady,

can I reply after I sit down?

Sit down.

You're always rude.

Why are you paying attention to manners now?

My lady,

her master is still sick.

She was asked to buy medicine.

Why did she play all the time

and put the business to the end?

Buy medicine?

Her Ladyship fell ill so suddenly this morning.

She didn't even have time to see a doctor.

What medicine could she buy?

I thought so too.

I even

went to the pharmacy to ask about it.

But the people from the pharmacy

are really strange.

He refused to say anything

and refused my money.

Did you see clearly what medicine it was,

what package it was and how much she bought?

I don't know.

She bought a lot of things

and mixed them together.

It seemed that she didn't want others

to see the medicine.

But

I saw the one

she was holding the tightest.

It seemed to be wrapped

with rattan paper.

The package was very small.

Rattan paper?

Such a special package

and such a small bag...

It must be very rare.

Is she going to

poison Master?

You don't need to hold me.

-Honey. -I'm not drunk.

Be quiet.

Tumi might be asleep.

It's good that you think so.

A family should live a good life.

Honey,

have some hangover soup

and wash your feet.

Then, you will sober up.

Bring me the hangover soup.

Honey.

This is the hangover soup.

Father, are you asleep?

Drink the hangover soup first.

Tumi,

what happened? It's so late.

I have asked Guo

to bring you some hangover soup.

Have some, please.

Tumi,

I've prepared some hangover soup.

Your father is about to drink it.

Thank you for your filial piety.

Yes.

Her Ladyship asked Xiaoqin

to keep an eye on it.

It's been cooked for a long time.

OK.

Then please drink Her Ladyship's soup.

I...

Something is wrong with the soup.

What's wrong with it?

It smells like medicine.

Did someone poison it?

Tumi,

what are you talking about?

Xiaoqin,

you've been watching it, right?

Yes.

I've been watching it.

It's not poisonous.

But I just feel that

it smells weird.

Madam, why don't you take a sip?

I...

Or, Xiaoqin, have a sip?

What happened between you two?

Master,

there's really nothing inside.

You've been out walking around

for half a day,

and you went to the pharmacy.

What did you buy?

Tell the truth.

Xiaoqin,

it's useless to hide it.

We will know whether you did it or not

after asking the pharmacy tomorrow.

If you poisoned him,

we'll send you to the court.

Whether you will be spanked

or hanged

is up to your luck.

After all,

you were trying to kill an official.

This...

It's not poison.

It's the laxative

Her Ladyship asked me to buy.

Get out.

I have something to talk to Her Ladyship alone.

Get out.

I'll send you back to your parents' home tomorrow.

We'll part ways

with each other.

I was wrong.

I was wrong.

Please forgive me this time,

honey.

I just didn't want you to leave.

I...

I wanted to have a child with you.

Then you won't

keep thinking about your daughter.

That laxative is harmless.

It can only make you

lie in bed for a few more days.

If you can't go,

the army will send someone else.

It's a long way to check around prisons.

You will suffer a lot.

I feel sorry for my husband.

What's wrong with that?

Military orders are like mountains.

Unless I'm crippled,

or I die...

Otherwise,

military orders are not easy to change.

Do you know what will happen

if you dare to change the military orders?

Anyone who tries to escape the military order

because of self-harm

will be punished by military law.

I didn't think that much.

Others won't think that

you don't want to be apart from your husband.

They'll only think that I'm afraid of suffering,

and I escape military orders on purpose.

The Chun family

is not a noble family.

I know you've suffered.

Okay.

I'll grant your wish.

You can look for a husband

who can accompany you all the time.

No.

No!

Honey!

Honey...

My lady, drink it when it's hot.

It's so nutritious.

Old Master asked me

to give this to you.

My granddaughter, Tumi,

has been chubby and cute since childhood.

If she gets thin during the patrol,

Dashan and Guo will be punished.

On the way,

she must not read.

She must rest in inns.

Besides completing official duties every day,

she must be accompanied

to take a walk or run.

Dashan arranges for

the daily workout according to the situation.

This was also given by Old Master.

He said

if Miss is hungry or thirsty,

if she sees anything interesting

or what others have

on the way,

you have to buy her one too.

Don't buy it only when she asks for it.

Grandfather is so old.

He worked in the government

and saved so little money,

but he gave them all to me.

He should have kept it.

He can buy whatever he wants.

If something happens to our family,

can he borrow it from Her Ladyship?

My lady,

this is Old Master's love

for you.

If you don't accept it,

he will be very sad.

I asked him

at that time.

Old Master said that

he would die soon.

It's useless for him to keep the money.

Practice thrift at home but be amply provided while traveling.

He said, "Don't let Miss suffer."

Have you prepared the things

I asked you to prepare?

Yes.

[I, Chun Tumi, will punish evil-doers and encourage people to do good. I will

[make Mother proud.]

[Kang Zhengyuan]

[Lord Han Wuhu is on patrol.]

[Ye]

Sky lantern, sky lantern,

may my wish come true.

[Grandfather, Father, be healthy.]

[Ye, may you have a happy life. Jinyi, be safe.]
