[The Double]

[Episode 16]

I am the daughter of the Secretariat Director
and Grand Preceptor,

Jiang Li.

I didn't expect that Jiang Li is willing

to disclose her identity

just to stand up for the Ye family.

Isn't she afraid of being accused
of covering up for the Ye family?

Mr. Li.

The show hasn't begun yet.

Why should we believe in you?

We shouldn't be fooled

by her lies.

That's right.

That's your one-sided proclamation.

That's right.

Impersonating relatives of an Imperial
Court official is a serious offense.

Well.

We have our
District Defender with us today.

He is well-versed in the law.

Official Zhu.

Tell us. Am I right?

Is it true?

Even if you're from the Jiang family,

you couldn't abuse your power.

The Jiang family covers up
for their in-laws, the Ye family.

This is a collusion between

official and businessman.

You act evilly

in collusion.

Nonsense.

The Jiang family is strict
even with their daughters.

I made a mistake when I was little

and was punished
at Zhennyu Hall for a decade.

To uphold justice,

my father could even
abandon his blood-related daughter.

Covering up? Who said that?

Say that again!

My Lord.

The Ye family are the in-laws
of the Secretariat Director.

If we treat the Ye family like this,

will we...

Their daughter died at the Jiang family.

Their granddaughter

has been locked away
in Zhennyu Hall for a decade.

Both families have severed ties.

Why would the Jiang family concern
themselves with the Ye family's affairs?

Got it.

Jiang Li.

However, the Soochow brocade

of the Ye family is problematic.

If you wish
to stand up for the Ye family,

you need to justify your statements.

Otherwise, you'd be accused

of covering up for them.

That's right.

You said that people died
after wearing the Soochow brocade.

I'd like to ask you a question then.
How did you know

that the Soochow brocade
was problematic then?

All the tailor's shops said so.

Everyone in Luyang knows about it.

Didn't Mr. Ye

get arrested by the officials as well?

Official Zhu.

When did the officials
start conducting investigations

based on hearsay?

We found evidence.

The victim's Soochow brocade
is kept at the yamen.

That's why we're here

to bring the Ye family's
butler back for interrogation.

What was the cause
of death for the victim?

What's the problem
with the Ye family's Soochow brocade?

This has yet to be investigated.

Since it's still pending investigation,

that means you don't have the evidence.

You're arresting someone
without any evidence.

Is this how
the Luyang officials do their duties?

Mind your words, Jiang Li.

There's a murder case in Luyang.

The Governor has
the authority to judge the case.

The Ye family's Soochow brocade is
available for sale in Zhongyuan.

I came from the capital.

Many nobles and officials
in the capital are wearing it.

According to your statement,

people who wear
the Soochow brocade died.

It's not a coincidence.

I suppose that aside
from the Soochow brocade in Luyang

is problematic,

the Soochow brocade
in other regions is problematic as well.

If the nobles
and officials in the capital

died after wearing Soochow brocade,

it'd certainly create chaos.

This is serious.

It concerns the lives
of the people of the Great Yan.

Isn't it absolutely imperative

that we should investigate the issue

regarding the Ye family's
Soochow brocade?

You're stopping us from arresting him.

How are we supposed
to investigate the case then?

I've never stopped you
from arresting anyone.

The head of the Ye family is in jail now.

Everyone in Lizheng Hall

has no idea about this.

Moreover, you said

that the evidence is at the yamen.

If that so, you should perform autopsy,
file the relevant evidence

and send it to the Office
of Weaving and Dyeing.

Then, the Office will
send their officials

to investigate
the Soochow brocade case in Luyang.

But what did Governor Tong do instead?

They barged into
the residence to arrest people

and interrogate them.

Yet, you mentioned nothing
about the Office of Weaving and Dyeing.

He's the one
who's covering up for the Ye family.

Why didn't you ask

the Office of Weaving and Dyeing
to investigate the case, Governor Tong?

That's right.

What's wrong with the Soochow brocade?

Jiang Li's fallacious statements

are really impressive.

It's worse than fallacious.

Mr. Li.

She seems proficient

in abusing her power.

Official Zhu.

Please pass my message to Governor Tong.

I've written to my Father.

My Father will get the Office of Weaving
and Dyeing to investigate the case.

In just a few days,

the Office of Weaving and Dyeing
will send their men to Luyang.

By then, the truth behind

the problematic Soochow brocade

will be revealed.

Don't worry.

My Second Uncle is still detained.

The Ye family will not make off.

Official Zhu.

I've made myself clear.

If you insist to arrest us,

you shall face the consequences.

Withdraw.

Why are they leaving?

Are they leaving?

I have an idea,

but I'd need some money.

No worries.

Listen.

The Ye family wish
to keep the Soochow brocade

that you bought as evidence.

Aside from returning your money,

we'll compensate you in cash.

That's great!

Mr. Qian.

Please take out
all the cash in the shop.

If it's not enough, send someone
back to retrieve more cash.

Register their names.

Noted.

If you'd like to return the cloth,

please line up here.

This way please.

Come on.

One by one.

What a great show!

The exposition is mediocre,

but there's a sudden climax
towards the end.

It's still worth the money
that you paid for tea, Mr. Li.

Mr. Li.

What do you think?

She's just a young lady,
yet she's very capable.

That's interesting.

Well, if Grand Chancellor Jiang
who's in the capital

knows about this,

will he blame it on her?

If Grand Chancellor Jiang gets to know

that Mr. Li is involved in this,

he'd be cheering

for his daughter for fighting

against the evil forces today.

My Lord.

Li Jing is right.

Jiang Li is leveraging
on Jiang Yuanbai's name.

Isn't she scared...

She needs to leverage
on Jiang Yuanbai's name.

As Jiang Yuanbai is
the Secretariat Director.

Tong Zhiyang will be somewhat wary.

But Tong Zhiyang has
the Li family behind him.

She's trying to worsen the dispute
between the Jiang family and Li family.

Without any mercy.

Why?

That's her own agenda.

Come on.

Drink some water.

You must be thirsty.

She saw us.

Looks like Jiang Li is still in rage.

Invite her again, Wen Ji.

Seems like Jiang Li

isn't willing to meet you, My Lord.

Tell Jiang Li

that I've enjoyed
a pot of good tea with Mr. Li.

Noted.

Did Li Jing

find this spot to watch the show,

or was it you, Duke Su?

Is there a difference?

Yes.

If Li Jing found this place,

I enjoyed playing the act very much.

But if it's you...

Do you have stage fright?

I don't have stage fright.

After watching every show,

you'd always ask me over.

Your sophistries

are apathy,

yet they hit the bulls eye

and touch the key points.

It put me

in debt to you.

Yet, you're

unbothered, sitting at the tea house,

showing none of your cards till now.

Are you really here to watch the show?

Are you getting angry at me?

Can't I?

Your words are really pleasant then.

You!

It's better to conduct investigation
from an elevated space.

A brothel isn't an elevated space.

Can't you let me win for once?

The person you met
at the brothel is called Wu LAN.

Wu LAN.

That's a nice name.

She's Taohong's accomplice.

Really?

What does this has
to do with the Ye family then?

Nothing much.

I just think

that you should know about this.

Okay.

Well noted.

Did she understand my explanation?

My Lord.

I understand.

You

are not her client.

My Lord is definitely not her client.

[Whoever does good will be rewarded]

Li is really incredible.

With just a few words,
she dominated the crowd.

Those shameless scoundrels

and scums were so terrified

that they couldn't even

open their mouths.

The Lizheng Hall is saved

all thanks to Li.

We're family.

That's what I should do.

You're too modest, Li.

You helped us

to overcome today's trouble.

It's really odd.

The officials

treated us harshly yesterday.

Yet today, they were so polite.

They even said
it's just a misunderstanding.

We thought

we need to spend a fortune to see him.

But he's acting oddly
and didn't take a single cent.

Governor Tong must be wary
of Grand Chancellor Jiang.

Hence, he changed his attitude.

He's greedy yet afraid
of ruining his career.

Tong Zhiyang is truly a vile man.

Let's not bother about him.

Today's suppression is just temporary.

We shouldn't let down our guard.

Li.

Did you really write to your Father?

Would your Father really help us out?

It's too complicated
to explain to my Father

in words.

The letter is for Shijie.

Shijie is the newly appointed

Serving Officer
of the Ministry of Revenue.

If he seeks help
from the Office of Weaving and Dyeing

to conduct investigations in Luyang,

the Office of Weaving and Dyeing
will consider it for his sake.

As for my Father,

I was just leveraging on him
to threaten Tong Zhiyang.

Otherwise,

they won't let us go easily.

Li.

If you leverage on your Father's name,

will he get upset?

My Father has spent his whole life
building his good reputation,

if we couldn't leverage it
to protect the family

nor the innocents,

it's useless.

Well.

You're too daring.

You acted on your own.

After you return to the capital,

your Father would reprimand you.

If this goes well,

it's advantageous for my Father.

He won't reprimand me.

As for Tong Zhiyang,

he dares not make any move recently.

As for the recalled Soochow brocade,

we need to keep it well.

The Soochow brocade
that I'm wearing is perfectly fine.

This means
that the problematic Soochow brocade

appeared recently.

Or it can also mean...

It's only found in Luyang.

Currently,

I can only pin my hopes
on the Office of Weaving and Dyeing

to prove
that the Soochow brocade is all right

and clear the Ye family's name.

Jia'er.

Second Aunt.

I believe

that we'll surely overcome this hurdle.

[Tong Zhiyang]

My Father has mentioned about you,
Governor Tong.

He said that you're quick-witted

and capable.

It's my honor
to finally meet you today.

I'm flattered.

I'm really flattered.

If this doesn't involve
Grand Chancellor Jiang,

it'll surely be done.

My Father has a message for you.

Don't worry
about Grand Chancellor Jiang.

You just need to do as he said.

One tenth of the Ye family's fortune

will then

be yours.

Thank you, Mr. Li.

Thank you, Grand Chancellor Li.

I left the capital in secret.

I couldn't stay any longer.

So, I'll return to the capital tomorrow.

I'll leave the rest

to you.

Please be rest assured,
Mr. Li and Grand Chancellor Li.

As long as I have
Ye Mingxuan in my hands,

we can certainly
take over the Ye family.

Thank you.

I'll do my best.

[Luyang]

Your Excellency.

We're entering Luyang.

[Tang Fan]
Once we enter the city,

I'm afraid that the Ye family

[Li Yu]
and Governor of Luyang will look for us.

Who should we side with?

Since the Jiang family is
the one bringing the charge,

we should side with the Jiang family.

However, we shouldn't go
against the Governor too.

Who would dare to accuse the in-laws

of the Secretariat Director?

The case isn't as simple as it seems.

However, if we don't
provide closure to Jiang Li...

The big shots are having disputes,

but the minions are the ones suffering.

The Office of Weaving and Dyeing

must not be manipulated.

Got it?

Yes.

[Luyang Prefecture Office]

Where are the people
of the Office of Weaving and Dyeing?

They has just arrived.

They are heading to yamen.

Great timing.

Let's show them

who's the one in charge of Luyang.

Besides,

Jiang Li went to yamen too.

How many people did she bring with her?

There are two of them.

Well, well, Jiang Li.

How daring of you, coming alone
to retrieve the man from me.

I shall meet you in person then.

[Bright and insightful]

Governor.

Excuse me for not going out to meet you.

You didn't inform me earlier.

Otherwise, I'd have prepared tea for you.

I'm just afraid
that if I inform you earlier,

you won't let me in.

I wouldn't do that.

That's silly.

[Bright and insightful]

As the Governor of Luyang,

all I want is for the people of Luyang

to live a good life in the city.

Why would I stop you from coming here?

Besides, you're a noble,

I wouldn't dare to go against you.

Governor Tong is retreating
to gain the upper hand.

I should keep it

professional too.

Governor Tong is righteous.

Of course, you wouldn't be afraid
of offending any parties whatsoever.

Seems like Second Lady Jiang

is trying to suppress
low-ranking officials like us

with your Father's power.

Are you saying that Governor of Luyang
is afraid of high-ranking officials,

hence he didn't
bring justice to the people?

What do you mean?

I'm begging you to bring justice
to the people, Governor Tong.

As long as
the Soochow brocade case isn't solved,

I can't live in peace.

I heard that the officials
from the Office of Weaving and Dyeing

will arrive today.

As the relative of the victim,

of course I need
to be present to explain the situation.

You're quite well-informed, Jiang Li.

Your timing is just right too.

I'm nothing compared to you,
Governor Tong.

You must be the Director
of Weaving and Dyeing.

[Bright and insightful]

My name is Tang Fan.

Who is she?

The daughter
of Grand Chancellor Jiang, Jiang Li.

Second Lady Jiang.

So, you are Second Lady Jiang.

Apologies for not recognizing you.

Apologies for not recognizing you.

The Office has received the report

about the Ye family's
Soochow brocade case in Luyang.

Your Excellency.

The Soochow brocade
of the Ye family has caused death.

You're responsible
for matters related to weaving.

However, there are
homicide cases in Luyang.

I had to investigate it.

The homicide case isn't solved yet.

Please bear with us, Your Excellency.

Any progress on the investigation?

The Ye family refuses to cooperate.

It might take some time.

But Second Lady Jiang is waiting here.

Perhaps she's leveraging on Office of
Weaving and Dyeing, so we'd release him.

Your Excellency.

Governor Tong is saying

that Your Excellency has great authority

and someone is trying to leverage on it.

Governor Tong.

Mind your words.

The Ye family has never
once disobeyed the Governor.

However, the Governor has kept
my uncle in custody for days.

Now, the Ye family is wrongfully accused

and the deceased
could not rest in peace.

Yet, the Governor failed
to find out the truth.

The Director of Weaving and Dyeing is
famous for being quick and efficient.

I'm afraid that you might need

to stay a little longer
at Luyang this round.

If that so,

I have to report to my superior

that the Governor is

delaying the investigation.

It's imperative for Your Excellency
to settle the case,

yet I don't dare
to release him just like that.

If the Ye family is the culprit,

I'll be blamed.

Since the Governor is over a barrel
and couldn't release my uncle,

I'll bring His Excellency

to investigate the other locations.

You won't meddle in

the Office
of Weaving and Dyeing's affairs, right?

Of course.

Your Excellency.

Please investigate this thoroughly

and bring justice
to the people of Luyang.

That's my responsibility.

[Bright and insightful]

Goodbye.

[Integrity brings forth dignity]

So, they weren't here
to retrieve him back.

They don't want me to meddle in this.

Should I send someone to watch them?

We better don't
give them a chance to fault us.

Let's not do anything.

Even if they were
to begin an investigation now,

they wouldn't find anything so quickly.

Let's wait for the orders
from the capital.

Noted.

Your Excellency.

You've traveled

a long way to Luyang.

I will escort you
to your lodging so you can rest.

Second Lady Jiang.

You even praised me

for being efficient at work.

How could I rest now?

You've read my mind so well.

I'm not supposed to disturb you.

Unfortunately, my family is in trouble.

I'm very worried.

Hence, I had to trouble you.

[Luyang Prefecture Office]

This is my responsibility.

You're not troubling me in any way.

I trust that you must
have found some clues

throughout this period.

Enlighten me.

The Soochow brocades

that caused skin rashes
after people wore it

were delivered
to the Ye family's weaving mill.

It has been left untouched,

making it easier
for Your Excellency to examine.

You're the expert.

We need your expertise
to solve the mystery.

If Your Excellency requires
our assistance in the future,

we will gladly return the favour

without any questions.

You're thoughtful indeed.

I'm impressed.

Come on.

Let's go to

the weaving mill.

Please.

Your Excellency.

Are these Soochow brocades problematic?

The scent of the Soochow brocade
is infused with incense.

Hence, it has a smoky smell

and its scent is prominent.

However, this Soochow brocade

not only smells like incense,

it also has a slight hint

of sweetness.

Sweetness?

How is that possible?

There is indeed a sweet scent.

Do you know
what the smell is, Lady Jia'er?

I have no idea.

I feel dizzy.

Li Yu.

Put out the flame.

Are you all right?

It's quenched
when it's away from the fire.

There's a slight scent of burnt hair.

The burnt part is greyish.

It breaks when pressed.

The original ingredients are fine.

The sweetness must have developed
in the later stages.

The incense

or the final product have been altered.

It's Tuoluo from Xiyu.

Tuoluo?

Did you know, Lady Jia'er?

My Father saw it
while he was exploring the regions.

My Father told me too.

Tuoluo is a type of plant
that originates from Xiyu.

After extraction
and concoction of its juice,

it exhibits analgesic properties
when used in small amounts.

It's also hallucinogenic

and highly addictive.

However,
unprocessed Tuoluo is poisonous.

A few drops can be deadly.

It causes ulceration all over the body.

You're indeed knowledgeable.

Why would the Soochow brocade
smell like Tuoluo?

The incense for the Soochow brocade

is handmade by my Father.

All these years, nothing went wrong.

Why would we destroy our own reputation

and harm the innocent with this poison?

Lady Jia'er.

Before we find out the truth,

I'm afraid

that the Ye family is
still related to this case.

The Tuoluo flower is rare.

Its habitat is extreme.

It can only thrive
in the wetlands of Southern Xiyu

and cannot survive in other areas.

It costs at least a few liang of silver,

or even several tens of liang.

The more poisonous it is,
the higher the price.

To poison people to death
using the Soochow brocade,

it'd cost around
a few hundred liang of silver.

A bolt of premium Soochow brocade

only costs a few tens of liang of silver.

Adding the Tuoluo flower,
worth hundreds of liang of silver,

into the Soochow brocade

is not only costly,

but it also caused death.

This is definitely not
the act of a businessman.

Someone is trying
to sabotage the Ye family

by poisoning the Soochow brocade.

Trace back to the source.

We need to find out
the source of the poison.

Since Tuoluo isn't a local plant,

it must have been brought into Luyang

through merchants.

If we investigate
the merchants entering Luyang annually,

would we be able
to trace back to the source?

To find the source of the Tuoluo flower,

we need to report it to the officials.

The Office of Weaving and Dyeing
has no rights to investigate it.

I understand your concerns,
Your Excellency.

However,

if Your Excellency manage
to find anything useful,

my Father will reward you bountifully.

Your Excellency.

Shouldn't you take this chance
to befriend Grand Chancellor Jiang?

Do you know
what's the most dangerous thing?

Greed.

Jiang Li is just
assuming her Father's authority.

Are you taking it seriously?

I don't care
who's investigating the case.

As the Office of Weaving and Dyeing,
we found out about the Tuoluo flower.

Our job is done here.

Whether the culprit

is the Ye family or someone else,

it has nothing to do with me.

What should we do then?

Pretend.

Then, tell Jiang Li
that we've done our best

but to no avail.

Genius.

We won't offend any parties then.

It's apparent
that the Office of Weaving and Dyeing

wants us to investigate this on our own.

If we couldn't find it,

will my Father be imprisoned forever?

Calm down.

At least we have a lead

to follow now.

If only my Father were around.

I know nothing about the logistics.

I don't even know who to look for.

I have a person in mind.

He might be of help.

[Datong Escort Agency]

[Datong Escort Agency]

Miss.

Should we get two guards

to go with us?

It's okay.

Come on.

Stay still.

Have mercy on me.

Please have mercy on me.

Stop shaking.

I can't aim properly.

Please, I beg you.

I dare not do it again.

No.

Stop bombing.

This is interesting.

It's really exciting.

Don't bomb it.

I can't hear anything now.

It's me. I stole it.

You!

I treated you well.

The escort agency is losing money.

How could you steal my wheels?

Master.

Don't move. No.

Stop.

No.

Shun.

Drag him outside.

Noted.

Third Uncle.

You've been in Luyang for days.

Now only you think of me?

I'm here today

to make a big deal
with you, Third Uncle.

Have a seat.

Haven't you heard what the Ye family

say about me?

Why are you here?

I heard that your friends betrayed you

and you were deceived in a major deal.

You need money now.

Did you investigate me?

Jia'er is concerned about you,

hence she asked around.

The Ye family is in trouble now,

why bother about me?

We're still a family.

There's no need to get aggressive.

If you're here to be the peacemaker,

you can leave now.

I'm here today to ask you for a favour.

After it's done,

I'll invest money in your escort agency.

If you think that I'm here

just to cheer you up,

I will leave now.

What favour?

Carrots. Fresh carrots.

I'll have a look.

Do have a look.

A bowl of wontons, sir.

All right!

[Longxing Pawnshop]

Well.

Do I need to dress up like this?

Didn't you say there are a lot
of rules in the underground market?

If a rich brat misspoke,

it won't affect you, isn't it?

You're right.

Lead the way.

Come on.

Shoulder to shoulder. (Friend)

Hanging on the pole.
(I'm looking for someone)

Which stall? (Who are you looking for?)

Allowing the carts to pass through.
(I'm looking for the head.)

Only the two of you?

Kindly introduce us to him.

Come on in.

Come on.

Who are we meeting?

The head of Luyang ghost market,
Lai Biao.

Rumor has it that he was in the army.

He killed millions during the war.

He's now in charge
of the underground market.

I heard that he can
do the things that yamen

couldn't do.

Like stacks of wheat

catching fire.

What does it mean?

It means that we're stupid and rich.

Let's see who's the foolish one.

Keep quiet when we're inside.

I'll go first.

Biao.

They're here.

Have a seat.

[Lai Biao]

What do you want?

My Master is a drug addict.

He's addicted
to the Tuoluo flower from Xiyu,

but he couldn't find it in Luyang.

Please show us the way.

Tuoluo.

It's not easy to find it.

My Master said

if you could help us find it,

you can keep the change, Biao.

That's really generous of you.

Unfortunately, you're too late.

We just sold out the previous batch.

The next batch won't arrive so soon.

My Master really wants it.

Don't you understand

what I said earlier?

Tell me the whereabouts
of the previous batch.

I'll ask the person to sell me some.

You're not here to buy things.

You're here to look for him.

Well, Biao.

There's no harm in telling us
who that person is.

To be honest,

the officials from the capital
is looking for him.

If you're involved in this,

it'd be bad.

Are you threatening me?

Why would I be scared
of the officials from the capital?

Liu.

Send the guests off.

Please filter my guests from now on.

Let's go.

Never mind.

Let's think of another solution.

Seriously?

You're the head
of Luyang underground market.

Your customer is offering a deal.

Yet, you're chasing us out.

I'm sure you're just

incapable of doing this.

How dare you!

There are dos and don'ts
in the ghost market.

If you're asking
for the buyer's details,

it's against my rules.

Rules are dead.

If he dares to buy it,

why would he fear anyone discovering it?

What if I insist to get an answer today?

You.

Name your price.

You're brave indeed.

I'll give you a chance then,
according to the rules.

Do you dare to take up the challenge?

What is it?

Your friend is one of us.

Ask him.

The Golden Water Formation challenge.

Golden Water Formation?

My Lord.

Wu LAN has updated

that Chu Lan will
arrive in Luyang tonight.

She'll meet you
at the residence in the West district.

Be prepared.

Tell her to buy us
as much time as possible.

Noted.

My Lord.

There's one more thing.

Jiang Li and Mingyu

went to the underground market
in disguise.

Why?

They probably went to Lai Biao
because of the Ye family's

Soochow brocade case.

Judging by their looks,

they won't give up.

I heard

that Lai Biao has rules
about the Golden Water Formation.

Well.

Golden Water Formation?

What formation?

You can think of it

as a group of people drinking together.

The opening
of the Golden Water Formation.

The so-called Golden Water Formation
is a drinking game.

Roll the dice and the player
with the highest number wins.

If you lose, you need to drink.

According to the rules,

if they get drunk first,

they will do you a favour.

[Lose Win]

Liu wins.

Bottoms up.

I'm okay.

Since we're challenging
the Golden Water Formation,

I'll go all out.

Look at those weaklings.

I can easily defeat ten of them.

Bottoms up.

Great!

Another round!

[Win Lose]

Master wins.

Bottoms up.

We shall drink two bowls.

They have so many people,
yet they only drink two bowls.

That's unreserved!

This is the rules
of the Golden Water Formation.

We need to defeat thrice
the number of challengers

in order to compete with Lai Biao.

Three rounds.

Bottoms up.

Bottoms up.

Come on, drink up.

Drink it.

Come on.

Stand up.

Stand up too.

You can't do it anymore?

Who else?

The last round.

[Uphold the good and punish the wicked]
Biao is here.

Biao! Biao! Biao!

Third Uncle.

Are you okay?

I'm okay.

Don't worry.

Biao! Biao! Biao!

You're rather lucky.

No one has been able to defeat us.

You're the only one.

I don't want to bully you
by outnumbering you.

Just tell us then.

Third Uncle.

Third Uncle.

Wake up.

You can't collapse here.

What is this?

Hang around for two turns.

Wake me up with this later.

Ouch!

Third Uncle.

Hold on.

We're not done yet.

If you lose,

you better keep your word.

Keep my word?

I, Lai Biao never break my promise.

Start!

[Lose Win]
Biao wins!

Biao! Biao! Biao!

You're really daring.

You dare to challenge my Golden
Water Formation with only one partner.

I'll drink it with you this turn.

Biao is respectable indeed.

From now on, I won't show you any mercy.

Bottoms up.

Bottoms up.

Bottoms up.

Your dice is odd.

Change it then.

Well.

I've played dice for ages.

I know the numbers just by listening.

You can't defeat me.

Hold on.

You can't beat me at drinking

nor playing the dice.

Why are you wasting your time?

I'm not drunk yet.

When you get drunk,

who will send you back?

- I...
- Are you going to spend the night here?

I'll send her back.

Who's that?

Drink as much as you like.

If you get drunk, I'll send you back.

I thought at this moment,

you should say

that you'll drink on behalf of me.

If you beg me...

I beg you.

You're really shameless.

Are you putting this on the tab?

No.

Good.

You...

I...

Don't be scared.

Drink till he drops.

Is he

your savior

or your enemy?

It's none of your business.

I'm competing with him.

Who are you?

It's no fun betting with him.

Let's have a good game together.

General Biao.

You

know each other?

He's my Father's nemesis.

He was involved in a case

and became a bandit.

I didn't know he had
become the head of this area.

I'm considered unlucky
to fall into your hands.

Do whatever

you want.

Is your Father

Xiao Minghan?

That's right.

You both like to be knight in shining
Armour, saving the damsel in distress.

Like father, like son.

I warn you.

According to our rules,

if you join halfway through,
you need to double up your drinks.

Shake it.

I'm very lucky today.

Open.

Biao wins.

Biao! Biao!

Bottoms up.

If this continues,

even if there were ten Xiao Hengs,
we couldn't win.

What should we do?

Well.

I've played dice for ages.

I know the numbers just by listening.

Hang on for two rounds.

Wake me up with this then.

It's my turn to counterattack.

Shake it.

Do you trust me?

Borrow me your luck.

What are you doing?

I'm feeling sleepy.

I'm just trying to stay awake.

You!

The Golden Water Formation

doesn't prohibit fireworks, right?

Open!

Xiao Heng wins!

Why are you only using this idea now?

What did you say?

Are you trying to get me drunk?

Why would I do that?

You're so skeptical.

Are you not upset now?

What are you mumbling?

Again.

Another round.

[Uphold the good and punish the wicked]

That's enough.

You

win.

What?

Say that again.

Enough is enough.

If this continues,

everyone will lose their hearing.

Can you tell us

who is the buyer
of the Tuoluo flower now?

Wait a minute.

I want to talk
to your defeated opponent.

Are you here to look for me

or to save that young lad?

Both.

I'm asking you
for a favour, General Biao.

Why should I help you?

My Father saved your life.

You're just and frank.

You never meddle
in the disputes between the parties.

You offended Li Zhongnan and
were subsequently framed and imprisoned.

You were then exiled to Nanjiang.

My Father knows that you're innocent.

He admires your spirit.

Hence, he let you go.

This time, I'm going against

Li Zhongnan's party too.
