Training Handbook" from Jinjiang Literature)

=Episode 27=

Buddy, she loves
to stir up trouble late at night.

Just ignore her.

I'll go and check on her.

Come on. Let's go and drink.

- Come on.
- Let me check on her.

Come on.

Stop right there!

Hurry and let her go!

Take him away.

Seventh Lady, are you okay?

I'm fine.

I'm afraid someone

released Qiao Wu on purpose.

You should be careful.

Don't fall into a deep sleep.

I'll keep an eye outside.

Thank you.

(Danhua Abode)

Greetings, Mother.

Xiu, why are your eyes swollen?

Maybe I didn't sleep well last night.

I think you cried last night.

I think she cried because of
the incident with Seventh Sister.

Yixiu had always been close
to Seventh Sister.

Now that this had happened,

even I felt restless about it.

The magistrate office is already
investigating the case.

Seventh Lady will be released soon

if she's innocent.

Yu,

you should head back first.

Did you sneak outside
of your room again last night?

No.

There was no one in the room.

Did you think I didn't know?

Did you go and see Lin Mao again?

I...

You should heed my advice.

Lin Mao isn't good enough for you.

I'll never try to harm you.

Even if you don't wish
to marry into the Princess's Residence,

I'll definitely find you a great family

and make sure
you have a glorious marriage.

Mother.

Although you're always strict with me,

and you forced me
to marry into her family,

to me,

you've always been a good mother.

Why are you saying that suddenly?
What do you mean by that?

To me, Seventh Sister

is like my own sister.

That's why I don't want
you guys to get hurt.

I think

you're losing your mind

from worrying too much
about your seventh sister.

You should rest in your room

for the next few days.

Send Sixth Lady back to her room.

Sixth Lady, let's go.

The imperial exam is nearing.

Now, you're telling me
that you want to leave?

My family wrote to me saying
that my mother was seriously ill.

I have to check on her.

I praise you for fulfilling
your filial duties.

However, getting distracted
at this moment

might be detrimental to your exam.

I can't rest at ease until
I've checked on my mother.

I'll definitely do my best

for the imperial exam.

Master, I won't let you down.

You shouldn't let down

your ten years' worth of effort
and aspirations.

Master, please don't worry.

(Sun Residence)
Uncle.

Shenyuan.

I had no choice but to seek you out.

How's Mother doing?

It's not about your mother.

It's about Yining!

- You remember...?
- Mother.

(Caifu Abode)

- Shenyuan.
- I've heard about Yining's case.

- Let's go.
- Who told you about it?

Hairu, I told him about it.

You can blame me if you want.

You did the right thing.

I wanted to tell you about it myself.

But Yining instructed me

not to tell you about it.

Where's Father?

He's in the study room.
What's the matter?

I need him to write something for me.

Shenyuan,

Yining was framed.

You can definitely rescue her, right?

I'll try my best.

Madam,

Lian Hong fainted after she

was lightly flogged.

But she insisted
that she didn't know anything.

Seems like Sixth Lady

is fine.

That's for the best.

Where's the rest
of the pufferfish toxin?

We hid them in the Chen's Residence
side yard.

You need to get rid of them
as soon as possible.

Yes, Madam.

Qiao Wu is such a failure.

How could he fail
to strangle a weak girl like her?

The prison guard
has already reported the case

after he failed to eliminate her.

Now, I'm afraid it'll be difficult

for us to attempt another move.

What about the location
of Mistress Qiao's body?

Haven't you guys received any news yet?

No, we haven't.

And, I heard

the owner of Jimo House was back.

But just in a several minutes,

he left hurriedly after that.

Didn't he go to Sun Jie's library?

Why did he come back suddenly?

Don't tell me he came back
just to rescue that lass?

What if he does manage

to rescue that lass?

(Marquis Anbei's Residence)

Marquis Lu,

thank you for allowing me
to return here.

I have no way

to repay your kindness.

I'm willing to serve you
for the rest of my life.

You should consider yourself lucky.

In this world, you're the only survivor

who survived after seeing her.

Who do you mean?

Back then, Mei died because of you.

Have you forgotten about it already?

You mean that wild lass?

Didn't she fall off a cliff and die?

Song Ziyun,

you should pray to the heavens

that she's still alive.

If not,

your fate would be 100 times
more miserable than this.

You better don't let me down.

Your Lordship,

Seventh Lady has been imprisoned

after being suspected of murder.

Keep a close eye on her.

She's not the one.

He's not that type of person!
Stop lying!

Be honest with me.

She's not Mei.

Take her away and lock her up.

Yes, Your Lordship.

Let's go.

My sister's case
had plenty of questionable points.

People involved in the case
are from the Luo Family.

As the head of the Luo Family, my father

has written a guarantee.

Mr. Magistrate,

please allow the Luo Family
to bail her out

before proceeding
with the investigation.

The Luo Family is anxious
about its members.

I can understand that.

However, this is a case of murder.

And, we have witnesses
and evidence of her crime.

We cannot deem it as a family affair.

Mistress Qiao's body is missing.

Mr. Magistrate, how could you be sure

that her maid was speaking the truth

when she said
she died of pufferfish toxin?

The culprit was devious.

She intended to get rid
of all the evidence.

But back then, my sister
was already imprisoned.

She could've ordered
someone else to do the deed.

Who did she order around, then?
Do you have evidence?

So, according to you,

the magistrate office

cannot arrest any suspects

before the case is solved, huh?

Sorry for my rudeness.

My sister was in trouble.

I was just flustered.

But now, the victim's body
is nowhere to be found.

How could my sister
be convicted of murder?

Mr. Magistrate, I assume

you've heard about the incident
in the cell last night.

If my sister truly intended
to silence her,

why was she almost silenced herself?

Scholar Luo,
the incident happened yesterday,

yet you've already found out?

You're resourceful indeed.

This concerns my sister's life.

I dare not be careless.

Mr. Magistrate,

my sister has to be safe

for you to proceed with
the case investigation.

I'm willing to pledge my entire fortune
and life as a guarantee.

Mr. Magistrate,
please permit us to do so.

Mr. Magistrate,

Marquis Lu had entered the cell.

Who did this?

Your Lordship.

Who harmed her?

Your Lordship,

it's the criminal, Qiao Wu.

He's been locked away
in the torture room now.

You two,

lock yourselves away
in the torture room.

Yes, Your Lordship.

Mei.

Mei, everything's fine now.

- Does your neck still hurt?
- I told you already.

I'm not Mei. Let go of me.

I told you already. I'm not Mei.

I know you hate me.

Give me a chance to explain myself.

Just give me one chance
to explain myself.

I won't leave with you.

Marquis Lu,

this is a shabby place.

A nobleman like you shouldn't be here.

You! Lu Jiaxue, what are you doing?

Put me down!

You're willing
to call me by my name.

Let go of me!

Mei, I'll protect you.

You must've lost your mind!

Marquis Lu, you can't
take a criminal with you.

Tell the magistrate
that I'll be taking her with me.

If he needs anything,

he can find me
at Marquis Lu's Residence.

Let me go!

Let me go!

Lu Jiaxue, let me go!

Let me go!

Put her down!

Third Brother!

Let me go!

It's you again.

I have secured her release on bail.

Your Lordship,
save yourself from the trouble.

Let me go!

Third Brother!

Let me go!

I'm going to take her with me today.

Those who dare to obstruct me

shall die.

I'll gladly join you.

Third Brother, don't do it!

Don't do it!

Third Brother, don't do it!

If you hurt Third Brother today,

and if I cannot avenge him,

I shall die together with him.

If anyone gets hurt here,

are you prepared
to give the magistrate an account?

I've already told him

to look for me at
Marquis Anbei's Residence!

Will you let me go or not?

If you won't,

I'll take my own life here today!

Yining,

you're involved in a murder case.

The Luo Family cannot protect you.

But I can.

I didn't murder anyone.

I don't need you to protect me.

I just need you to let me go.

Let me go!

You shouldn't have sought

Mistress Qiao by yourself.

Does it still hurt?

Third Brother, I suppose
your informant

was the one who saved me.

They didn't do their job either.

You were terrified.

Yining?

Yining?

(Haitang Abode)

Seventh Lady, I assume

you fainted because you

bumped your head into something.

You should be fine after receiving

my acupuncture treatment.

I'll tell my men to deliver some pills
meant for blood circulation after this.

Thank you, Physician Li.

Thank you, Physician Li.

All right.

Thank you.

Please.

Mother.

Thank you

for always trusting me.

Actually,

your father was being
protective of you as well.

He didn't allow anyone
to look for Qiao's body.

He even wrote a guarantee
for your sake...

So,

Hairu,

I'll entrust her to you.

I'll head back first.

Thank you, Father.

You can rest and recuperate.

As for other matters,

you don't need to worry about them.

You should leave too.

There's no point for you to be here.

I didn't expect Luo Shenyuan

to take her back.

But I heard that Qiao Wu

injured Seventh Lady's head.

She already fainted once
after her return.

She had a weak constitution since young.

I wonder if her injury is serious.

She might suffer a relapse
and fall into the water

by accident one day.

It'll be a terrible sight to behold.

Let's go.

Young Lady, you just recovered.

You shouldn't walk too much.

I was stuck

in that stuffy room for days.

I wish to take a breather outside.

Young Lady, we should go back.

It's windy out here.
You might catch a cold.

But I just left the room.

I remember that I brought
a handkerchief with me

when I left the room. Where is it?

Young Lady, don't be impatient.
I'll look for it.

Ms. Zhao, it was you indeed.

Seems like Aunt is getting impatient.

She's even resorting to this, huh?

Seventh Lady, what are you saying?

I was just worried about you
since you were

standing beside the pond,
which was quite dangerous.

I wanted to give you a hand.

You can stop pretending now.

The man you sent to the Chen's Residence

to do the dirty job

had been captured.

Mother, why did you punish Lian Hong?

She didn't take care of you.
So she must be punished.

Xiu,

are you troubled by something lately?

You can tell me about it.

Madam Chen,

Second Master is inviting you
and First Master

to Chengjing Hall.

Got it.

Yes, Madam.

Keep a close eye on her.

Yes, Madam.

Yixiu,

my sister, Yining,

Shenyuan, and your parents
are heading toward

Chengjing Hall with an upsetting
expression on their faces.

I'm afraid something big
is about to happen.

What could it be?

It might be related to Yining's case.

I dare not go there.

Yixiu,

no matter what your mother had done,

they have nothing to do with you.

You're a kind-hearted lady.

Someone's life is on the line here.

You have to consider it carefully.

Open the door!

Open the door!

- What's wrong?
- There's someone over there!

Come!

Hurry!

Big Brother.

Big Brother, over here.

Yining,

you didn't swallow any grievances

in the prison, did you?

Aunt, thank you for your concern.

I was lucky enough to survive.

Someone tried to silence me.

Yining, did someone try to silence you?

What's going on?

That day, someone
bribed the prison guards.

They sent Qiao Wu to silence me.

Qiao Wu?

This...

Shouldn't you guys ask Fifth Lady

about this?

Why did you guys

invite us over here?

Fifth Sister was sure

that I'd murdered Mistress Qiao.

Since I was imprisoned,

she would surely think
that I was convicted.

Only the mastermind

behind the plot

will try to silence me.

Aunt,

am I right?

But,

what has that got to do with me?

It's because the person

who wanted me and Mistress Qiao dead

is none other than you,

Aunt.

Look at this child.
I'm sure she has lost her mind

after being imprisoned.

Yining, you need to provide evidence

when you make such accusations.

I'm the evidence myself.

Someone was looking forward to my death.

However,

I'm sorry to say that I've survived.

Drink up!

Hurry and feed her with it!

Luo Yining,

you went overboard
with that act of yours!

Are you trying to kill me here?

Mistress Qiao, you have to "die" here.

If not,

the mastermind wouldn't know

that everything was
proceeding according to plan.

You mustn't forget

what you promised me.

As long as you're willing
to testify against Chen Lan,

you'll just be an accomplice
who was manipulated by her.

At most, you'll be sentenced
to several years of imprisonment.

You can still reunite with

Fifth Sister and Xuan
after serving your sentence.

I just hope that my two children

won't be implicated.

After my return,

I'll request Mother

to adopt them under her name.

In the future, they'll be
the legitimate children

of the second principal wife
of the family.

All right.

I can rest at ease upon hearing that.

I can die without any regrets now.

Back then, you framed me

for murdering Gu Minglan
with pufferfish toxin.

After that,

you wish to murder me
with pufferfish toxin

and push the blame on Seventh Lady.

You wanted other people

to think that Seventh Lady

was trying to make me
have a taste of my own medicine.

You were killing
two birds with one stone.

That was a devious move indeed.

You're a sinner who was banished
to the estate.

What gives you the right to speak here?

Back then, Madam Gu was still pregnant.

You took advantage of her weakness
after childbirth and poisoned her tea.

That's the truth.

What a load of nonsense!

Someone!

Take her away!

Nobody moves.

Let her finish her words.

The tea was brought back
by Second Master.

It never fell into your hands.

Back then, I was managing
the Luo's Residence.

You often sent your men
to visit my storeroom guards.

Since then,

I started suspecting you.

Until one night,

you sent your men to make

the warehouse warden,
who was an alcoholic, drunk.

You even instructed Ms. Zhao
to poison the tea in the storeroom.

I witnessed the incident.

After that, you reminded me secretly

that Gu Minglan's death

would be major

to both you and me.

You were the one who wanted

to harm the second principal wife

so that you could replace her.

Why are you maligning me now?

Who do you think will believe you?

Don't forget. You hired
the cooks from Shandong

to prepare the pufferfish feast
we had in the Chen's Residence.

That was the period

you obtained the pufferfish toxin

and kept it in your hand.

Where's the cook, then?

Where's the pufferfish toxin?

Where are they?

You think we'll believe
your baseless accusations?

Tell Butler Bai
to bring all of them here.

Song Zhi had already confessed.

Both of her parents' death contracts

were in your hands.

She had no choice

but to frame Yining.

As for Ms. Zhao,

she wanted to push Yining into the pond

while she was alone.

It's a shame

that I caught her red-handed.

Young Lady,

I've let you down!

You were nice to me.

But my parents serve Madam Chen

as slaves in the estate.

She said...

She said she would
beat my parents to death

if I didn't obey her order.

Say that nonsense again,

and I'll tear your lips apart!

It's none of Madam Chen's business!

I was the mastermind!

Madam Chen...

She had no idea what was happening.

Fine, then.

Tell us, then.

What kind of grudge do you have

against Madam Gu and Yining

for you to harm them as such?

It's all because Gu Minglan

has let Madam Chen down!

Seems like you weren't the only culprit.

Aunt,

I suppose

this looks familiar to you.

I found this in your room.

This is pufferfish toxin.

Does it belong to me
just because you say so?

This is...

It's obvious

that you guys are
joining hands to frame me!

I can testify to that.

This bottle of poison...

The pufferfish toxin
does belong to my mother.

(Chengjing Hall)

I also overheard

that Mother

instructed Ms. Zhao to hire someone

to murder Yining.

Shut up!

Mother!

Just stop!

Mother, don't make
the same mistake again!

- Mother!
- I carried you for 10 months!

I risked my life

just to give birth to you!

How could you do this to me?

Mother, I don't believe

that you're a murderer!

Unfilial girl! Go away!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother, I don't want
to believe that you're

a murderer either!

Aunt, I assume

you already wanted me dead

when I first visited Mistress Qiao.

The horse died because you poisoned it.

You did it so that I couldn't find out

the true cause of my mother's death.

Back then, Mistress Qiao refused
to tell me the truth.

Although I found out
that it was pufferfish toxin,

the cook was already dead.

There was no evidence.

Therefore, you didn't need to act.

Until the appearance of Young Lady Yang.

You were reminded of your past grudge.

So,

it was all

a part of your plot.

If so, I assume you returned here
while pretending to be ill

to make me

give myself away, huh?

I was truly ill.

I just didn't expect you

to be that impatient.

After all, Aunt,

you're the most patient person
I've ever seen.

You're absolutely insane!

Am I insane?

Or was Gu Minglan insane?

She murdered my eldest son!

How could you say something like that?

Back then, Minglan saw that you

were heartbroken
over your eldest son's condition.

Therefore, she hired the best physician

to give it one last try

out of kind intentions.

However,

he was already terminally ill.

What has his death

got to do with Minglan?

But she said

that physician could cure him!

In the end? He still died!

He was so young!

He died in my arms, you know?

He was my child as well.

I was heartbroken

over his death as well.

But,

you can't just harm other people
because of that reason.

Stop pretending to be virtuous!

Luo Chengwen,

do you think I had no idea

about your feelings for Gu Minglan?

It's a shame

that the woman
you had loved all your life

was a scandalous wretch!

You and your filthy words!

Stop your nonsense!

Lan,

to think that I've respected you
all these years.

I never expected you to make
such baseless accusations

and cast away
the last shred of your dignity.

Chengzhang,

I have witnesses who can prove

that Luo Yining

isn't your daughter.

Nonsense!

Shut up!

Stop trying to drag Mother down

before your demise!

She has already lost her mind.

Send her to the magistrate office.

Butler Bai,

lock her away in the Ancestral Shrine.

That's right.
Send me to the magistrate office now!

Send me to court!

Since you are disallowing me
to speak here,

I'll tell everyone about it
in the court!

Shut her mouth!

I'll make the scandals in the Luo Family

known to the public!

If anyone dares to stop me,

I'll stir up a commotion
until everyone hears about this.

I'll make sure all of you

stay inside the residence
forever due to embarrassment!

(Luo's Ancestral Shrine)

(Stand Out Through The Ages)

What are you doing here?

When did you find out?

"May we be united by virtue,
hand in hand.

Without flight,

I was led to my downfall."

Sima Xiangru's Phoenix Seeking Phoenix.

Since you dare to write that down,

why didn't you hand it to her?

How did you find out?

Could it be that the letter was...

You saw that she was depressed
over Mistress Qiao's condition.

Did you intend to elope with her,
just like what Sima Xiangru

and Zhuo Wenjun did?

You're right.

I did write the letter.

But it has nothing to do with Minglan

or Yining.

Minglan was always an upright person.

Yining did nothing wrong either.

Why did you try to harm them?

Minglan, huh?

That sounds

very endearing.

You've never called me by my name

ever since we got married.

You only referred to me as Madam Chen.

I gave birth and
raised your children for you.

I disregarded
my family's disdain for you.

But in the end,

I was nothing to you.

Chen Lan,

you're right.

I've

let you down.

I've let Minglan down as well.

Follow me to the magistrate office
and turn yourself in.

I'm not going.

Have you ever considered
the feelings of our children?

How can Yiyu and Yixiu

find good husbands

if I get convicted of such a crime?

And Shan,

how can he build
a future for himself after this?

You should consider their feelings!

What about you, then?
Have you ever considered

our children's future
when you committed all those evil deeds?

You say that you consider
their feelings.

Do you truly care about them?

Or are you just trying to hide the fact
that you've committed heinous crimes?

Bah!

Stop pretending to be virtuous!

Get out!

Get out!

Young Lady,

you should return to your room.

You haven't fully recovered yet.

Don't you have anything to say to me?

This time,

I made Chen Lan act on purpose.

I knew

that she wouldn't let me off.

I knew that she would try to silence me.

This is the only way

we can gather evidence of her crime.

And, you chose the period
when Grandma has entered the mountains

to prevent her from getting worried.

You've gone to great lengths
just for this.

Coincidentally,
Mistress Qiao was seriously ill.

She had no one to depend on either.

Now

is indeed the best period.

Have you ever considered

what if Mistress Qiao
regretted her promise

or if you didn't manage
to survive the prison encounter?

What should you do, then?

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I have to take a risk somehow.

It's just

that I didn't expect you

to hear about this as well.

You were preparing for
the imperial exam.

But you left suddenly.

I suppose Mr. Sun would be angry at you.

I'll deal with it accordingly.

You shouldn't stay out here.

Let's go inside.

Third Brother.

What's the matter?

Chen Lan was wrong.

Mother wasn't that kind of person.

Of course she wasn't.

Third Young Master.

Seventh Lady,

Second Master wants you
to head to Chengjing Hall.

I'll join you.

Third Young Master,

Second Master wants her
to head there alone.

The maids may remain here.

I'll head there myself.

Shao'an.

Young Master.

Head to Uncle's side

and retrieve a heart-saving pill.

Get me a horse.
We'll head into the mountains.

Yes, Young Master.

Yining.

Come and have a seat.

You said

Minglan left
the side yard before, right?

Yes, Second Master.

She realized that she was pregnant
not long after that.

I heard Ms. Zheng telling

Madam Gu to abort her child.

But she disagreed.

Ms. Zheng was worried

the timing of her birth
might not match the right time

and that it might arouse your suspicion.

So she bought
some labor-inducing medicine in secret

and calculated the days

so that she could
give birth to the child early.

You're a midwife. Tell us.

Did the child look like
a full-term child?

No, she didn't.

But Ms. Zheng insisted on saying
that she was a full-term child.

I thought to myself

that it might be a case
of congenital deficiency.

Did she use any labor-inducing medicine?

She did.

And, she added clove
and musk into the mix.

Compared to the conventional
labor-inducing pill,

it was much stronger.

Do you two know the consequences

of framing the second principal wife
of the Luo Family?

Second Master, I'm speaking the truth.

I can swear to the heavens
that I'm telling the truth!

Now, you've found these two

to tell us all about the past.

How can I tell that you're not trying
to malign my mother here?

After your mother's death,

all of her old servants

went on their separate ways.

Old Madam wishes
to retain the service of Ms. Zheng

to take care of you.

Even so, she left resolutely.

Why was that the case?

Don't you think it was strange?

Butler Bai.

Second Master, what do you need?

Bring Ms. Zheng here. Make it quick.

Yes, sir.

Take her away.

Yes, sir.

My dear,

Chen Lan murdered
the second principal wife

and framed Yining.

He married you as a second wife.

But you're pretty protective
of her, huh?

So what if I'm the second wife?

Crazy woman,

what evidence do you have

to prove
that you didn't malign Madam Gu?

Am I maligning her?

Or was she an indecent woman?

You guys will find out
after reading this letter.

Luo Chengwen

wrote this to Gu Minglan

personally.

You!

(To Gu Minglan: "May we be united
by virtue, hand in hand.")

Gu Minglan was that capable.

She could make all the men in the world

revolve around her.

What a shame.

Your uncle was
daring enough to write it,

yet he wasn't daring enough
to deliver it to her.

In the end, I found it.
