[Episode 8]

[Lai Mansion]

The worse you people fight,

the more at ease I am.

Where are you going?

Jia'er is sick and wants his father by his side.

Let go.

You always use Jia'er

to seek attention.

You think I can't tell?

I just won't let you see that woman.

What a shrew.

A jealous shrew.

You're living off me.

How dare you be rude and unreasonable to me?

- Stop! - Get lost.

What are you doing?

Mrs. Shen is here.

Unbelievable.

Just you wait.

Step aside.

Go home.

Off you go.

Yijiao.

What are you doing here?

Are you here to see me ridiculed?

W-Why would I do that?

You married well and now you're making a fool of me.

I don't need your help.

Go away.

Clerk Yan Xing of the Ministry of Justice is here to pay respect.

Empress Dowager.

Mrs. Shen is here.

May you be well, Empress Dowager.

Spare the formalities.

You contributed greatly to solving the murder case.

I would love to reward you with something.

But I couldn't

think of anything.

Let's hear it from you.

What reward would you like?

Empress Dowager.

I do not wish for a reward.

But please

bestow upon me an oral decree.

Very well.

Tell me about it.

Empress Dowager,

from now on, please kindly address me as Clerk Yan

instead of Mrs. Shen.

You have such insight

and ambition at such a young age.

I really appreciate it.

Our court appoints the virtuous and capable,

regardless of gender.

Women don't have to

rely on their husbands.

We can fight for

a career path on our own.

Approved.

Thank you, Empress Dowager.

Forgive me for speaking boldly.

All Six Ministries have female officials,

but they mostly

take on cleaning and archiving tasks.

In the Ministry of Justice,

female officials can't work on cases like male officials.

You see.

I am a woman, as well.

Therefore, I know

how much we have to

go through

to stand as tall as men.

If I can sit

on this throne,

then the female officials

have every right to work on cases.

Madam Xu.

Draft an imperial edict on my behalf.

From now on,

all the female officials

shall enjoy

the same rights as male officials.

Your Majesty is truly wise.

Clerk Yan.

From now on,

you're free to conduct investigations

like your male colleagues.

Thank you, Empress Dowager.

Liuniang.

Mr. Xu.

Is the ministry head here?

He hasn't been feeling well

and has taken a sick leave.

Is there something urgent?

It's not exactly urgent.

It's just somewhat shocking.

How so?

Regarding Liang Chenzhong's chronic poisoning,

you told me to

look into the people around him.

I looked into it and followed the leads.

Guess who it led me to?

It led me to the owner of the Tongming Hall,

Rong Zhui.

Don't move.

Behave.

Dripping Water Guanyin.

Take her away.

Go.

I brought some tonic for your mother.

The bottom one is for you.

You suffered in prison for nothing

and lost a lot of weight.

Thanks for looking after me.

The prison guards didn't give me a hard time.

And it was quiet in the cell.

Therefore, I came up with

many ideas to improve siege weapons.

I know turning myself in

was a stupid move.

But no matter what,

I couldn't let my mother suffer any more misfortunes.

Thank you for discovering the truth

and clearing our names.

This case may have been closed,

but we still haven't caught

the person with the poison.

Your family is not considered innocent yet.

A-Are you still going to arrest my mother?

- How can you arrest me? - Take him away.

Great Chief.

Xu Xiangren and Madam

arrested Liang Jiren.

They looked into the Tongming Hall?

That's right.

They have arrested

Rong Zhui, the owner of the Tongming Hall.

That's quick.

Should I take some people

to stop them?

What for?

She was just granted authority.

Let her show off a bit.

Understood.

Mr. Liang.

I've been

visiting you quite frequently

to share Empress Dowager's burden.

Meanwhile, I have something else in mind.

Now, I've discovered what I've wanted to know.

And someone has

arrested the suspects for me.

The nine sons of the dragon

have different characters.

The poisoning has nothing to do with you and your mother.

The second branch

has nothing to do with the main branch.

Do your job.

Live up to the Empress Dowager's expectations.

[Ministry of Justice]

You poisoned Liang Chenzhong

with Dripping Water Guanyin?

That's right. I did it.

His eldest son

was nothing but a scoundrel.

If he remained alive,

his father was bound to

die at his hands one day.

Besides,

I already carry his father's child.

Naturally, I have to plan for the future.

Master, this way, please.

A batch of new dancers arrived.

Would you like to take a look?

Sensible.

Nice!

Mr. Liang.

I have found a real beauty for you.

[Liang Chenzhong]

Lan'er, come here.

- What a beauty. Come here. - Young Master.

Mr. Liang, please have some tea.

I had no choice.

That wayward son of mine was either

out there gambling or visiting brothels.

Once he ran out of money,

he came to threaten me for more.

He almost drained my savings dry.

Otherwise,

I would not have done that.

Besides,

I have an unborn child.

Shouldn't I

do something for him?

[Prison of Ministry of Justice]

So,

Rong Zhui got pregnant.

So he decided

to get rid of his eldest son.

That's right.

I've seen all kinds of

strange cases as an inspector,

but I've never

heard of a father poisoning his eldest son

on purpose.

I didn't expect that

a tiger would actually devour its child.

People are truly unpredictable.

Great Chief.

What brought you here?

Minister Liang, don't you remember?

The Empress Dowager

has entrusted this murder case

solely to me.

However, I'm really surprised

by your ruthless measures.

If I had any other options,

I wouldn't have…

I had no choice.

Even a tiger does not eat its cubs.

How come you simply

"had no choice" when it came to your son?

Great Chief,

why are you mocking me?

I did try to murder my own child.

But what about you?

You reported your own father.

We are clearly the same type of people.

Among all the accusations

that convicted my father,

one said that he had leaked a weapon design

to the enemy.

That weapon design was drawn

by your younger brother.

I knew it.

You've been hanging out

with that silly nephew of mine.

I thought you valued talents

and saw my silly nephew

as an inseparable friend.

It turns out

that you've been suspecting us.

My goodness, why are you here?

Why did you come at this hour?

I came to see you.

No one saw you, right?

I don't know.

We'd be in trouble if someone saw you.

We have other things to worry about.

Your son must have

figured something out.

That's why you harbored the intent

to silence him.

If you had

found anything solid,

you wouldn't come to question me here.

Even if

you bring this to the Empress Dowager,

I still have nothing to say.

In that case,

your affection for the unborn child

is nothing but a disguise.

If you promise to

look after my unborn child,

I may try to recall the event.

Perhaps

I might recall something.

You are not in a position to negotiate terms with me.

Minister Liang, have you ever heard of

a punishment called inch-torture?

With each cut,

the criminal will shed exactly 36 drops of blood.

In three days,

a total of 360 cuts are made

while the prisoner is alive.

Shen Du.

I am a high official.

I am guilty of attempted murder.

And… And I was just an accomplice.

I don't deserve to die.

Y-You shall not act recklessly.

Act recklessly?

Do you really think

people call me "White Ghost"

for no reason?

Do you really think

you can leave this place alive?

H-How dare you--

This is the first cut.

I have nothing to do these days,

so I might as well keep you company.

I confess.

I confess.

I got drunk back then

and leaked my younger brother's weapon design.

After what happened,

I was too scared to confess.

Back then, your father was close

to my brother.

Besides,

he had been convicted of treason.

I just seized the opportunity

and blamed it on him.

Chenzhong had found out

about it by chance

and had kept extorting money from me.

I couldn't take it anymore.

I simply couldn't.

Great Chief.

Back in the day,

your father was convicted of treason

with solid evidence.

With one less conviction,

you still can't overturn the case.

So it was you, indeed.

Then, I will overturn the convictions

one by one.

I do not seek to be renowned.

I only wish to have a clear conscience

and not let the people down.

[Shen Bingzhu, Shen's father] How can I collude with you?

No way.

Don't say that I haven't warned you.

The nail that sticks out

gets hammered down.

If you don't ally with me,

you will be walking into a fire

with no return.

I receive my wage from His Majesty.

Naturally, I shall share his burden

even at the cost of my life.

By heavenly decree,

here comes the edict.

The criminal, Shen Bingzhu,

secretly corresponded with the enemy,

burned down our army's granary,

leaked the weapon designs,

and colluded

with the enemy.

[Gao Youning, Shen's mother] He shall be executed.

The male members of the Shen family are to be executed.

The women and children are to be imprisoned.

Convey the message widely.

[Late father Shen Bingzhu's tablet]

Father, all these years,

I've never given up seeking justice

for all our family members.

But I'm still clueless

about who that woman is.

Is she an enemy or a friend?

Today, at least I managed to prove

that you were framed for

leaking the weapon design.

Father, rest assured.

I will find that woman one day.

And I will gather

all the evidence I need.

Great Chief.

The Ministry of Justice and the inspectors are celebrating

- tonight. - Why do I care?

Great Chief.

You are always right.

- Cheers. - You've worked hard.

Drink up, and I'll fill it up.

- Let's get wasted. - Can you drink?

- Over there. - Come on, let's go.

Come on, Mr. Meng, I toast to you.

Dig in.

You've worked hard.

Cheers.

I almost forgot.

Your letter.

It came to the ministry.

So happy?

Chi is coming to Xiang'an.

She has asked to meet with me.

That's great.

I've heard you mention Chi

so many times.

The ministry received so many

case-solving letters from commoners.

Only you were silly enough

to read the letters one by one.

I laughed at you back then.

I didn't expect you

to meet such a close pen pal.

I am so jealous.

I still remember

her first letter sent from Jiangnan.

The letterhead featured gilded inlays.

And it had a fragrance.

She even put flower petals in the envelope.

I am so jealous.

I really want to meet

such a talented

young lady.

She must be a beauty.

Sorry.

She only asked to meet with me.

Annoying.

They really can drink.

- Dig in. - Have some grapes.

Here.

Liuniang.

Come on.

I truly admire your investigative methods.

I toast to you.

Mr. Xu, I'm not very good at drinking.

It's okay.

You'll get better at it.

You'll gradually discover

the mystery in the wine.

Cheers.

You'd better behave.

Want to be arrested again?

Great Chief.

Shen Du.

Why are you here?

Great Chief, please have a seat.

Did I say I wouldn't come?

Great Chief.

Great Chief.

Your esteemed presence

is such an honor for me.

Let me toast to you.

Please enjoy.

Come on, Great Chief.

I toast to you.

That was unexpected.

The Great Chief can really hold his liquor.

Great Chief.

I toast to you.

Cheers.

He can hold his liquor?

I'm not drunk.

I'm very sober.

Alright.

You're very sober.

You don't believe me?

Find someone to fight with me.

Now that you mention it,

I really do have someone

I want to beat up.

Let's do it!

Thank you for coming, Great Chief.

Mind your steps.

Jing Lin, bring the lantern.

What for?

Who beats someone up

with a lantern in hand?

Let's go.

I can

beat someone up,

but not without a lantern.

Yes, you can.

Look at me. I am your lantern.

Let's go.

Jing Lin, let's go.

Let's go.

Let's go.

- Let's go. - Be careful.

Liuniang, be careful.

- Goodbye, Great Chief. - Be careful.

- Be careful. - Chuichui, let's keep drinking.

Who wants to drink?

I want to eat.

Be careful.

Jing Lin.

Come here and hold him.

He's too heavy.

Let's go.

- Great Chief, there's a staircase. - Be careful.

Another one.

Up.

Stand still. Be careful.

Who's there? Let me out.

Who is it?

Who is it?

I'm going to beat him up.

Wait here for me.

I'll go.

Okay.

Go ahead.

Who's there? Let me out.

So wasted.

Who is it?

Who is it? What do you want?

Buddha absorbs the sin

and only kills the cheaters.

So many unfaithful lovers

are buried at Ximing Temple.

Someone still favors the lover

and neglects his family.

It's just a minor punishment as a warning.

If you dare to do it again,

I will gouge out your heart and bury you.

I dare not anymore.

I dare not anymore.

So this is how

the drunk White Ghost looks.

Take your sober Great Chief back to the mansion.

Let's go.

- Watch your steps. - Go.

Be careful.

Who was it? So ruthless.

Who was it?

I didn't expect the mighty White Ghost

to get drunk so easily.

Aren't you a tough guy?

The corpses

are easier to carry than you.

Thank you.

No problem.

Bringing back a drunk roommate

is no big deal. You're welcome.

Shen Du.

You're so annoying.

Good morning, Madam.

Good morning, Madam.

Madam, please have breakfast.

You…

Morning.

I got drunk and did something improper.

It's alright.

Last night--

Nothing happened.

Sister.

Qi Yeyun.

Sister.

What happened to your forehead?

Who hurt you?

Was it you?

Did you hit my sister?

No, no.

I drank too much last night

and bumped my head.

Right, why did you come here?

I came to deliver something

for my lady.

Your lady?

Lu Chuichui.

This is her treasured Floral Essence.

Have it with water to relieve hangover headaches.

She sent me to deliver it.

Chuichui is so considerate?

But when did you start working for the Lu family?

The young lad from their pawnshop

was fired for being talkative.

They hired me to work there.

You wouldn't take me in as a disciple,

and I'm too young

to take exams to join the Ministry of Justice.

So I thought I could be closer to you

if I worked for your colleague.

You're talking so much.

It looks like you'll get fired at any time.

No way.

I'm only talkative in front of my sister.

Mr. Zhong.

Why do you let everyone into the mansion?

Why do you let everyone into the mansion?

[Shen Mansion Top Secret]

[Shen Mansion Intelligence]

On June 1st,

the breakfast flatbread was too hard.

Du was furious.

On June 2nd,

dinner was acacia-leaf noodle.

Du ate three bowls of it.

On June 3rd,

the breakfast tofu pudding was too salty.

Du was furious.

On June 4th,

we ran out of candied fruits.

Du was furious.

Yan Liuniang.

Do you take me for a three-year-old?

[Shen Mansion Top Secret]

My lord.

Have you settled everything in Yingzhou?

Yes, my lord.

Here are the accounts.

[Account book]

The revenue is nearly 30,000 taels this year.

Keep it confidential.

Don't even reveal anything

to Prince Xian.

Rest assured, my lord.

No one will learn about it.

I have also taken care of

the families that have expressed support

for His Highness.

They have received benefits

and will naturally keep their mouths shut.

There will be no slip-ups.

Liang Jiren

can't keep a secret.

Empress Dowager

may exile him in secret.

Find an opportunity

to silence him forever.

He knows too much.

- Cheng Cai. - Here.

- Zhang Xinliang. - Here.

Song--

Isn't this Mrs. Shen?

What's wrong?

Mrs. Shen came

for the roll call in person?

Yan Xing.

Here.

How did you get hurt so badly?
