Hi man. Yes? We are close to my home. Please save my face. Untie me, Okay? Keep walking. Cut the crap. You hit my anesthesia acupoint again. Shitty fortune teller! Aren't you blind? Why did you hit so accurately? As I said, I know everything in my mind. Bah! Hurry up. What's up? Tell me. I'll desperately beat you. Don't do that. I'll desperately beat you. Sister. Attack his lower part. What's the lower part? Kick his legs. Kick his belly forcefully. Kick him to death. All right. I kick you. I kick you to death. Kick him. Desperately kick him. I kick you. Don't make a scene. Lord. What's wrong with you? I planned to catch a fox for you. But I was fooled by that fox. It's him. Are you Lord Liu Bowen? I want to report something to you. All others are away. Only you and me are here. Go ahead. Why do you get in? Lord, he is full of cunning tricks. I'm so clever and still fooled by him. I'm worried about you. Why do you get in? I'm afraid you will be bullied. Who dare bully me? Nobody. Well, you were dragged by him like a dog. Without me… Sister, you can't say that. Enough! You two get out. All right. Anyway, I won't go far. I'll guard at the door. As long as I hear some sound, I'll rush in. I'll stay at the door, too. I'll kick his lower part after I rush in. Get out. Go ahead. I'm greatly wronged. Please redress the injustice for me, lord. Don't you like the food? I'm perturbed and have no appetite. Are you missing the dough drop soup? As the saying goes, bran tastes as sweet as honey when you are hungry, but honey is tasteless when you are full. As long as I think of that taste, I will… I just cooked the millet congee. Have some millet congee. His Majesty is long-faced. What's wrong with him? Look! An anonymous letter was posted at the palace gate. Who is accused? Liu Bowen. Hasn't he gone back to his hometown? Yes. I approved his leave to get a temporary peace. So, they two can't argue with each other. However, although Liu Bowen isn't here, the quarrel has never ended. If that person doesn't hate Liu Bowen's guts, he won't write this. Your Majesty, are you credulous about what you are told? Of course not. That's fine. Although I'm a woman, I can guess the plotter of the anonymous letter. It was posted in the outer waiting room. It has something to do with Li Shanchang. I think Shanchang dare not do that. He is against Liu Bowen. But he won't do that. Wife, you are quite sharp-sighted. Have some millet congee. After Lord Liu came back to Qingtian County, he imprisoned Jiang Cheng. That means he will retry the case of Zhang Qing. Did you also hear about that in the neighboring county? Not only in the neighboring county, I guess people in Hangzhou and Chuzhou Prefecture are discussing it. Both the beginning and the settlement of the case is quite weird. Some people make the story into a song and sing it in taverns and teahouses. As long as my lord accept the case, it will be settled in a just way. I hope so. I eavesdropped just now and guessed you waited for me on purpose. What's my job? I can tell fortune. Stop there. But you rank the top among wicked people. Frankly speaking, little people can fool me. But I was fooled by you. When you inquired about Mr. Zhang's family and said you were a government runner, I guessed that you were probably assigned by Lord Liu. I had no way to find Lord Liu at that time. Well, you became my guide and you were quite obedient. You needn't tie me up. It would influence my reputation. What if you escaped? I can't see anything. Stop there. I'll take you to your room. Get in. Okay. All right, you will stay here. Lord said that you can't get out. All your food and water will be brought by me. You needn't remind me of that. Don't worry. Lord said after the road repair work is done, he will redress your injustice. I've waited for so many years. I won't act recklessly now. Okay, see you. Hold on, young man. What's up? I said your payment was not enough and came back with you. That's just an excuse. Here is your silver. Take it. My lord is incorruptible. As his servant, I'm also clean-handed. Moreover, I've got the information that I wanted from you. It's a shame to get back the silver that I've paid. Won't you really take it? If my lord knows my hands touch it… Your hands don't touch it. Smart! My friend. Do you want to eat chicken or duck? I can bring it to you. After Zhang Qing moved to Jiang's family, his father Zhang Defa settled in the neighboring county, right? Exactly. Answer my question. Except Zhang Defa, who else is in his family? Zhang Qing's original wife. Did he marry before he came? Yes. Why didn't you affront him in his home? I'm sensitive about my reputation. Now that his family coaxed us into marriage, they must be despicable. If I made it public, my daughter would be dishonored. I'm unable to speak out about my grievances. Why are you still here? I'm waiting for you. Actually, you are very nice and kind. But we don't match each other. Why not? I like you. So, we match each other. Why don't you like Emperor Zhu? If you, you can be an imperial concubine in the palace. He is too old? He is old. But do you know how old I am? You have no beard. You get to the point. Do you know why I have no beard? You are lovely. Eunuch. I'm a eunuch. Do you know that? No. Eunuchs are different from normal people. They have no that part. What part? Well, if we really get married, well… I see. You get my point, right? Bridal sedan chair. What bridal sedan chair? You can't get my point. Who has that? It's hired. You hire a big bridal sedan chair and a performance team of gongs and drums. I sit inside the bridal sedan chair and you ride a red horse outside. Blare! Blare! Where are you going? You haven't told me why bridal sedan chair is also called eunuch. Lord Liu, please. Do you have any reply about the affair that I entrusted you? I'm about to report to you, lord. I've got a reply. Oh. Please check it, lord. He passed away. The former magistrate in Qingtian County Zhou Yunlong died of an illness one years ago. It's so unfortunately. Yes, indeed. the two lines of characters written by Lord Zhou implied a profound meaning. I planned to invite him here to help me retry this case. But I didn't expect that he passed away. Maybe, when Zhou Yunlong tried the case, he found some secrets but couldn't handle it impartially due to certain pressure. So, he resigned in resentment. What pressure? I can't guess randomly. You can't guess randomly or dare not express it clearly? Lord. I speak for you. It's related to either money or power. Zhou Yunlong knew that he couldn't go against the will of his superior, but he didn't want to act against his conscience. Therefore, he resigned. He is a good official. What you said is quite reasonable. But that's only my guess. I have a question. If it was handled as per the law, you should have the files of the case. Why don't you have any record? I don't know, either. Look at his characters. Don't say it's weird. Everything has its own rules. If you pay much attention, it's easy to figure out the murderer. It seems that he identified the murderer. It's easy to figure out the murderer. Do you also think the murderer was Jiang Jiayan? That's quite confusing. After Jiang Cheng found that he was deceived, he swallowed insult and humiliation silently. As everyone knew, His daughter Jiang Jiayan was strongly chaste. She once stabbed Zhang Qing with her scissors. But that just proved that she had a motive to kill him. But it couldn't prove that she was able to kill him. Moreover, if Zhang Qing died at the dining table or in the bed, it was not strange. However, he died in the street. His throat was cut off. There was no witness, and no weapon was found. Did Jiang Jiayan practice marital arts since her childhood? Did she have an excellent martial arts master? I never heard about that. How could a weak woman kill Zhang Qing in that way? Do you think the murderer is male? Lord, it's ready outside. Lord Liu, please. Lord Liu. Lord, please. Please. Let's start. Sit down. The government of Qingtian County issued a notice about the excavation and submission of treasures. Everyone actively participated in it. Influential families of Mr. Zhao, Mr. Qian, Mr. Sun and Mr. Li advocated public welfare and boosted public morals as they excavated treasures. They repaired more than 50 miles of the official road in Qingtian. I've reported it faithfully to the superior authority. The state government approves to set up a stela to praise them. This is the result. Come on. Let's celebrate. Good. County magistrate, I have a comment. Go ahead. Repairing the road is not our main goal. But you called it public welfare. We can't bear that. I know what you mean, Landlord Zhao. Let's start to submit the treasures. I've invited the celebrity in Qingtian and the state preceptor Liu Bowen to identify. Show our articles to him. Start to submit treasures. Carry it there. Hurry up. Lord. Okay. Carry our articles to him. All right. Come on. Carry our treasures upward. There should be treasures. I think so. Well… I don't know. Lord Liu. There are no treasures. Everyone can go now. Hold on. Landlord Zhao. Who is he? He is my servant. Servant? After you claimed that you found treasure spirit on that official road, your servant came to submit treasures. Well… What a coincidence! Yes, what a coincidence! After hearing your comment, even I think it's such a coincidence. There is no story without coincidences. Well… Did you set a trap to us? Yes, if you insist on saying that, I'm speechless. If you didn't set a trap, Lord Liu, what can you explain for your servant's shabby mat and wooden bowl? He said he showed them to you. I've been admiring your knowledge. So, I accepted them and reported to the superior according to procedures. No, I'm flattered. Everyone, I'm ashamed. I often appraise treasures. But I made a mistake this time. Emperor Ai's mat in Kingdom Lu wasn't a reed mat. Instead, it was a cattail mat. Ah? The wooden bowl used by Emperor Zhou in the Shang Dynasty wasn't made of willow, but made of elm. I'm not mastered in it. I'll report this matter to His Majesty to ask for my punishment. I'm so sorry. Sorry. You… I'm ashamed. You are fooling us. You can't say that. You… If you say that I'm not mastered, I admit. But if you say I fool you, I don't agree. Answer my question. Are you the only ones who went to dig up treasures? Did you ask me anything? Did I tell you to go to the mountain to dig up treasures? So, this is the truth. Lord Liu's strategy is so smart. They were willing to dig up treasures on that road. You visited me and asked me to forbidden civilians from going to the mountain in the name of repairing the road. You all signed the pledge. Yes. How about reading it? We are so unluck. Lord Liu, you care much about us. Thank you so much. Thank you, Lord Liu. You are welcome. Lord, please finish it as soon as possible. Otherwise, I can't bear it. What's up? Are you going to pee? It's getting late. The treasure appraisal meeting is over. Hold on. I want to say something. What do you want to say, Landlord Zhao? County magistrate, in your notice, you didn't mention that treasures must be excavated on that official road. Right? Yes. County magistrate, the notice was affixed with an official stamp. It isn't a kidding, right? No, it isn't. Good. We want to show another treasure. We will take this treasure to His Majesty and ask him to judge. Yes, right. Oh, tell them to present it. Present it. Look! A rare treasure cherished by five generations. What's this? There were cattle-shaped and elephant-shaped wine containers. My treasure is a horse-shaped wine container. Horse-shaped wine container? Yes. Wine containers are mainly in the shape of cattle and sheep. Sometime, they are in the shape of unicorn and phenix. But I never heard about any horse-shaped wine container. It's in front of you now. When a thing is rare, it becomes precious. Look at the model. There is a hole for pouring wine. Why are you laughing? It's an antique. You don't understand. Has it been passed on for five generations? Yes, five generations. Remember that when you use it, you'd better light up a candle. Light up a candle? What did you mean? Why? This isn't a horse-shaped wine container. But it's an old potty. Ah? Well, your ancestral preserved it well. What? Potty? A urinal used at night in room. He drinks wine with it. What a shame! Don't smash your good wine container. Brother, do you really bear to break it? Be careful. I often drink wine with it. Look! It's your chance to broaden your vision. Lord Liu, tell me. What's this? What does it say in the Records of Antiques? It isn't specified in the Records of Antiques. Really? I think you just don't know. It's unpresentable. It's a wine cup. It's an ancient bronze wine cup. Do you know the Preface of the Orchid Pavilion written by Wang Xizhi? I've read it. Even the great calligrapher wrote that wine cup and poem suffice to express emotions in an elegant way. Why did you say it's unpresentable? Sorry, I have limited knowledge and scanty information. Please enlighten me. You said it's a wine cup. If not, what else is it? If you call it a wine cup, what are these two holes used for? How can you call it a wine cup? I've never seen such a wine up? You haven't seen it. But it exists indeed. It's just in front of you. If it isn't a wine cup, what is it? Come here. Look at the two holes here. If you thread through a string, what is the best body part to hang it around? Try to think. Thread s string. No, it looks like a pig. No, it's like Bull Demon King. Damn it! What do you think it is? It's bronze crotch protector. I was used to guard soldiers' penis in ancient times. Ah? He drinks wine with a potty and you drink wine with a bronze crotch protector. The taste is the same, right? Bastard, you paid 100 taels of silver for such a shabby article. You pissed me off. How spendthrift you are! Let's talk about if after we go back home. So many people are here. His wife won't pardon him. What did you do in the past? As you bought it in secret, why didn't you tell me earlier? Will you explain after going back home? It's too late. Do you want to save your face? You paid 100 taels of silver for such a shabby article. What a shame! You didn't allow others to touch it and cherished it as a rare treasure. You are so shameless and spendthrift. You pissed me off. What will I live for? My god, why is my life so miserable? I don't want to live. Well, you… shameless woman! Good men never fight against women. After I go back home, I'll teach you a lesson. You don't need to go back home. I'll teach you a lesson now. I'll desperately poke you. I'll poke you to death. Don't leave. Come back. Come back. What's going on? What a shame! Lord Liu. Thank you, Lord Liu. Why do you thank me? I was so hilarious outside just now. The jailor told me that you've done a great deed for our county and the official road is unimpeded. So, I must thank you, lord. You are so funny. Your own lawsuit is hopeless. But you're interested in the official road. It isn't hopeless. Since Lord Liu accepted my indictment, I've known that my lawsuit is hopeful. Who is Lord Liu? He is well-known for his injustice and divinely foresighted. Liu Bowen alone can defeat one million people. Stop there. You don't need to praise me. I'm not as competent as you said. When I handle difficult matters, I solve them just based on common sense. It only needs diligence, carefulness and patience. At present, I'm encountered with a difficulty. Don't frighten me, lord. You are all my hope to redress my injustice. I planned to find the former county magistrate Zhou Yunlong and bear the responsibility in officialdom for him. So, everything will be solved. Lord, hurry to find him. He died. Died? Oops, daughter, how miserable my life is! Daughter, I'm unable to redress your injustice when I'm alive. I'll go to the Palace of Hell to sue him. Somebody here! Don't trifle with your business. I'll take good care of Jiang Cheng. Please rest assured, lord. I guess someone might trouble him after I accepted his case. So, I imprisoned him as a protection to him. If he is injured or killed, the blame is on me. God can see your great kindness, lord. Lord, what else can I do for you? I have a question. Did anyone here in your government serve the former county magistrate? Yes. But it's not easy to get any information from them. Did you ask them? I asked several people out of curiosity. But as if they had reached agreement on it. They all dodged about. You are right, lord. Well, even the former county magistrate had such an end. Who else dares to speak freely? All right, choose an experienced one. Tell me his name and address. Clerk Ba Hu. He lives in Xixie Street, on the north side at the entrance. I can guide you there. I'm familiar with this place. You don't need to guide me. Liu Yi, let's go. See you, lord. Is anybody in? In anybody in? Is anybody in? You are… This is Lord Liu Bowen. He comes to visit you. Nice to meet you, Lord Liu. Why don't you invite Lord Liu to get in? My house is messy. I don't want to tarnish lord. All right, let's go to the county government. Well… It doesn't matter. I know a proper place. Come on. Waiter! I'm coming. Warm a pot of wine and bring another dish. No problem. Lord Liu, Liu Bowen, you are so distinguished. But you treat me, such a humble clerk, to dine and wine. It indicates that you are a good man. I know why you come to me. Now that you know, just tell us. But I don't know anything about that indeed. You are an clerk in the county government. Were the records of Jiang Cheng's case organized by you? Lord is asking you. The former county magistrate Lord Zhou is a very good man. He is a real scholar. I admire him so much. Don't beat about the bush. Don't be rude. Lord Zhou knew that this case was quite troublesome in the very beginning. To protect us, he didn't let us involve in it. Hold on. Can we return this dish? He is ignorant. Isn't he a freeloader? Shut up. Get out and wait for me outside. All right. I'll be just at the door. Call me in case of anything. So, you know nothing about that. What if I know something? Lord Zhou had a miserable end. Lord Liu, you are here now. But will you stay in the small county forever? If I tell you, after you leave the county, I'll have trouble and can never get rid of it. Lord, I hope you can understand my difficulty. Moreover, I know nothing about it. Sir, here is your tea. Is there any specialty? What is specialty? That's tasty food, such as spiced beef, stewed chicken and braised pork leg. No problem. I won't be hard on you. Let's talk about some other matters. Other matters? I'm afraid that I don't cater to your taste. Lord, you are a scholar. But I'm just a humble clerk. If Lord Zhou is still in office, he may have a lot to talk about with you. He is a good man. Waiter. I'm coming. Come here. What can I do for you? Bring a vinegar-pepper soup to dispel the effects of alcohol for him. Moreover, take some food to my servant at the door. Thanks for your care. He is eating. Is he eating? Okay, bring a tablespoon to me. No problem. Lord, like Lord Zhou, you speak genteelly. Why do you say that? Sir, here is your soup. We call this article Spoon. Only scholars like you call it in a genteel way. But Lord Zhou called it in a stranger way. Most people couldn't understand it. Why County Magistrate Zhou call it? He said that ancient people called it arrowhead and called the wooden spoon square column. He couldn't stop imparting and didn't care whether others wanted to listen or not. I have a question. What kind of books did Lord Zhou usually read? One book called Words and Expressions and one dictionary were his favorites. He even read them in bed and in latrine. Even when he made an inspection tour, he carried them with him. Lord, where are we going? To the county government. Again? We just… I have something to deal with. Lord Liu. Where is your magistrate? He is holding a court trial. You don't need to tell him. Well… What are you doing? Can you stop us? The matter is beyond our control. Stand properly. Wow, what a good life! I'm gluttonous. Where did you extort it? I bought it. How did you get the money? I have many good friends across the country. Can't I have some case-dough? All right. Impudent! If you refuse to pay grain taxes, I'll flog you. You mentioned the crop failure. How much percentage did you harvest? Only twenty to thirty percentage. How about cotton? Only twenty to thirty percentage. How about silkworms? Also, twenty to thirty percentage. Unruly people! It's seventy to eighty percentage in total. Why didn't he pay taxes? The drought results in the crop failure. Somebody here! Lord. Flog him with ten beats and then put a cangue on him. And let him stand in front of the government. Don't release him unless he pays all taxes. Yes. Please pardon me, lord. I don't mean to refuse to pay. I'm really unable to pay, lord. Don't resort to sophistry. You've all seen it. Those who refuse to pay will be punished like him. Torture him. Hold on. Who's that? Do you always press for taxes for the imperial court? Lord. Do you care about common people this way? I urge them to pay taxes every year. If I don't punish some people this way, I can't collect all the taxes. There is an order from the imperial court. land taxes and other levies are reduced or canceled in blank year. Don't you know that? I'm in a dilemma. Almost each time when I apply to reduce taxes to the superior authority, my application is rejected. Moreover, I'm often rebuked. Even the evaluation on my performance is affected. You are so irresponsible and just care about your own official career. You can be dismissed from your official post. Lord. All right. You'd better write a letter of resignation and go back home. Well, I haven't reached the age of retirement. Why not? Based on your method of calculating the crop harvest, if you sum up your parents' age, your wife's and children's age as well as your age, how old are you in total? You are not competent and are wasting the payment from the imperial court. Do you want me to impeach you? Lord. Liu Yi, Liu Yi. I'm coming, lord. Give this letter to my uncle. Tell him to send a reliable person to go to Chuzhou Prefecture overnight and submit it to censorship governor's office. Remember that it's censorship governor's office. Don't give it to the prefectural magistrate's office. Yes, I see. Moreover, after you are back tomorrow, come to my study with that fortune teller. Okay. Liu Bowen submitted a memorial. He requested to go to the southeast as an itinerant inspector. Shanchang, what do you think? Liu Bowen isn't steady even in his hometown. It's a life-and-death matter. It also involves officials who pervert the law. So, it's necessary to investigate it thoroughly. Since the founding of our great Ming, we never tolerate corrupt officials. Good. Draft an imperial edict for me and send it to Chuzhou Prefecture in hurry. Yes. Tell Liu Bowen to behead all convicted criminals no matter their crimes are minor or major. Yes, Your Majesty. Brother, I count on you. Last time when I came here, I failed to enter the door and was barely beaten by a dog. Did Lord Liu just ask you to pry into information last time? As long as we prove that they are a couple, we'll arrest them. But why is Lord Liu is so confident about that? My lord's mind is unpredictable. Let's do as he said. Nothing will go wrong. Be shrewd. I can't be shrewder. Rest assured. You'll see. Okay, let's go. Go. Music
