00:00Episode 10
00:05I'm sorry. I failed to capture Shen Du in Yingzhou.
00:09Yingzhou's Huohe Gate is gone?
00:13Yes.
00:30Useless.
00:33Unforgivable.
00:52You're badly injured.
00:54It seems you need to rest for a while.
00:57Have you taken care of Yingzhou's half-spirits?
01:01They've been poisoned.
01:03No survivors.
01:04Good.
01:05What about the things Mo Qianzhi left for Shen Du?
01:10That's what Shen Du is looking for.
01:12Mo Qianzhi has been watching Yingzhou for so long.
01:16He must have a lot of people in the imperial court.
01:27Shiji?
01:35How come?
01:37Shen Du must have dropped the bag at that time.
01:40You were fooled by Shen Du.
01:41I...
01:50Shen Du.
01:52I'd like to see how you're going to solve the problem.
02:22I didn't expect Prime Minister Zhang to use the Gannan Road
02:38to collude with Xicheng to gain power.
02:41Prince Ying even bought the soldiers' hearts
02:44under the pretext of funding.
02:46You've secretly grasped the weakness of the two forces in the court
02:50but haven't reported it.
02:52You don't trust the imperial court.
02:54Chen Huo'e must have known it.
02:56So he wanted to borrow my hand to find this book.
02:59How are you going to deal with it?
03:01I think...
03:02Chief.
03:03Chief, bad news.
03:07Why are you in a panic?
03:09The half-spirits we caught
03:10died before we could ask anything.
03:17Chief.
03:18These people died of poisoning.
03:20When they were caught,
03:21I searched them carefully.
03:22I even checked their teeth.
03:24It's impossible for them to be poisoned again.
03:43This eye...
03:46How come?
03:47The officers found it.
03:52Jin Ling is right.
03:54Before these people were caught,
03:56they must have been poisoned.
03:58Can the coroner find out the poison?
04:00Yes, but it will take some time.
04:02Report it immediately after you find it out.
04:04Yes, Chief.
04:07It's time to go back to Xiang'an.
04:17Let's go.
04:38What are you looking at?
04:41Along the way,
04:43we passed by many places.
04:46It's a record of me
04:48chatting with the local people.
04:50Did you find anything different?
04:52From the memories of these people,
04:54I did find something strange.
04:56The year before the Shen Residence case,
04:59the Great Warehouse suffered a flood.
05:01Many people
05:02had a very difficult time
05:03due to a shortage of food.
05:05But in Gannan Road,
05:07in the memory of the people,
05:09there were also some areas
05:10affected by the flood.
05:12Logically,
05:13there should be a shortage of food.
05:15But the local food prices
05:16didn't go up,
05:17but they went down a lot.
05:19Where did the food
05:20that appeared out of nowhere come from?
05:24You mean...
05:26There is indeed a possibility.
05:29Someone secretly
05:31took the coffin from the Great Warehouse.
05:45There's an assassin!
06:15Oh!
06:46Ah!
06:51Ah!
06:52Ah!
07:05Liu Niang.
07:15Let's go.
07:21No need to practice.
07:22Let's attack.
07:45Let's go.
07:54Minister Shen,
07:55you are indeed a good son.
07:57You came to the palace
07:58as soon as you entered the imperial city.
08:00No wonder my mother
08:01values you so much.
08:04Your Highness, you are too kind.
08:06I am just doing my best
08:08to live up to
08:09the trust of the Great Empress Dowager.
08:10If you really have such thoughts,
08:12it's not in vain
08:14that my mother
08:15thinks highly of you.
08:17I hope you will rise to the top.
08:20What do you mean?
08:26Forget it.
08:27It's late now.
08:33Jia'an must be tired, too.
08:38Shen Du,
08:39come to my house later
08:41to rest.
08:57Your Highness,
08:58have some tea.
09:05Your Highness,
09:06they are here.
09:12Greetings to the Great Empress Dowager.
09:14Greetings to the Great Empress Dowager.
09:17Rise.
09:23Minister Shen,
09:24I have already read
09:26the memorial
09:27you sent.
09:29Mo Qianzhi is dead
09:31and the rebel army has been defeated.
09:33Half of the Ghosts
09:35have been annihilated.
09:37Yingzhou did a good job.
09:40Have you encountered
09:41any difficulties
09:42in handling the case?
09:46Thanks to the Great Empress Dowager's blessing,
09:48everything went well.
09:52What should I give to you?
09:56Shen Du
09:57is the head of the cabinet
09:58and the head of all levels of officials.
10:00He is already a first-rank official.
10:02Then the officials
10:03will have no chance of promotion.
10:10Look at your mouth.
10:13I pampered you
10:15and I am the one who said it.
10:16Fortunately,
10:17you are not an outsider.
10:19Otherwise,
10:20people will think
10:22I want to hit you
10:24with your mouth.
10:26Please forgive me, Your Highness.
10:27I know I was wrong.
10:29Minister Shen,
10:30what do you want?
10:32What reward do you want?
10:34Just tell me
10:36and I will agree.
10:41This is my duty.
10:43You don't need to reward me.
10:45If it wasn't for Madam,
10:47this trip to Yingzhou
10:48wouldn't have gone so well.
10:50If you want to reward me,
10:52I will give you a reward.
10:59So you want to
11:00reward your own wife.
11:03It seems that
11:04your relationship
11:05has improved
11:07after this trip to Yingzhou.
11:09Improved relationship?
11:11I have done a good deed.
11:16Your Highness is wise.
11:18Rise.
11:21Minister Shen,
11:22you are a meritorious official.
11:24You should be grateful.
11:27Okay.
11:28I will reward you
11:30for this trip to Yingzhou.
11:33Minister Yang,
11:35you have contributed to Yingzhou.
11:37You are promoted to be the chief officer
11:40of the Ministry of Justice.
11:42You will be promoted to the sixth rank.
11:45Thank you, Your Highness.
11:48Minister Yan,
11:50do you have
11:52any special reward you want?
11:56Your Highness,
11:58I don't have
11:59any special reward I want.
12:01You have to think carefully.
12:03This is a rare opportunity.
12:05Everything I said is true.
12:07I don't want any reward.
12:09I just want peace in the world.
12:15Okay.
12:16Minister Yang,
12:18as a woman,
12:19you care about the world.
12:21Our Cang
12:23really needs
12:24an official like you.
12:27I heard that when you were in Yingzhou,
12:30you had a disaster
12:31and almost died.
12:33Summon the imperial doctor to treat you.
12:36Yes.
12:51What's wrong?
12:53You just got the reward.
12:55Why are you so gloomy?
12:59It's about Chief Officer Yan.
13:02I just had a taste of it.
13:04The trip to Yingzhou is a big deal.
13:06The Empress Dowager doesn't like it.
13:08But she doesn't want to reward you.
13:10Zhang Baohuan
13:11must have understood
13:12the Empress Dowager's mind
13:13and had a fight with Xu Naisi.
13:15She said that
13:16there was nothing to be done
13:17because she didn't want you to be rewarded.
13:19If you hadn't
13:20taken this matter seriously,
13:21it might not have happened.
13:24What are you going to do
13:25with the book
13:26Mr. Mo left you?
13:27The book has a lot of implications.
13:30But I'll find a chance to give it to you in the future.
13:33Even a fox can't beat you.
13:35You went to the palace
13:36to see the Empress Dowager last night,
13:38but you didn't mention the book.
13:39It's just a lie.
13:41It seems that some people are afraid.
13:43I'm afraid they
13:44won't be able to sleep well tonight.
13:49The one who knows me
13:51is also the wife.
13:53So
13:54I saw a reward lying down.
13:58What?
13:59Prince Ying said that you are loyal to me.
14:02But you don't have to be loyal to me
14:03in the middle of the night
14:04and don't go home, do you?
14:08There is a place
14:10I have to let you know.
14:27Let's go.
15:28Oh
15:31Oh
15:36Oh
15:39Oh
15:44Oh
15:53Oh
15:54Oh
15:57This is...
15:59This is what I want you to know.
16:07When the Shen family was in trouble,
16:11my mother was seriously ill.
16:13She knew that she would die soon,
16:16so she asked me to write a confession letter.
16:18I can't write it.
16:19I can't write it either.
16:21My father
16:22would rather die to prove his innocence.
16:24I would rather die with my father
16:26to prove my innocence.
16:27But if even you die,
16:30this injustice
16:31will really end.
16:33The Shen family
16:35has so many dead people
16:37and your father.
16:40Their grievances
16:42and the truth they have always wanted
16:44will really be known by no one.
16:47She also persuaded me
16:49to wait for the right time
16:51so that I could have a chance
16:53to prove the Shen family's innocence.
16:56From that day on,
16:58I have to live
17:02with hatred in my life.
17:15I have too many grievances
17:16from the Shen family.
17:20Looking for the truth
17:25has become my only reason to live.
17:39Maybe the world has forgotten
17:42or no one cares about it.
17:45But I still remember
17:47every moment
17:49of the Shen family
17:55and all the innocent people
17:57who died for the Shen family.
18:01Not only you,
18:05but also me.
18:07I remember
18:09you.
18:15I have never forgotten Uncle Shen.
18:18When the Shen family was in trouble,
18:20people said
18:22Uncle Shen betrayed the country and colluded with the enemy.
18:26I don't believe it.
18:31He is the most righteous
18:33and most selfless person I have ever seen.
18:35He would never do anything
18:36to harm the country or the people.
18:39So from that time on,
18:43I made up my mind
18:45to be a female officer
18:47and go to the Ministry of Justice.
18:49I just hope that one day
18:51I can find the truth by myself.
19:09Everyone calls me Bai Wuchang.
19:13So I have decided that
19:15I am a lonely ghost
19:19walking alone in the human world.
19:27I really didn't expect
19:34that someone would be like me.
20:09I didn't expect that
20:13I would be a lonely ghost
20:15in the human world.
20:23This heart
20:25has been living
20:27with so many people's expectations.
20:29From now on,
20:33you won't be alone anymore.
20:39I will try my best
20:41to help you find the truth
20:43and clear your name.
20:59I will try my best
21:01to help you find the truth
21:03and clear your name.
21:29I will try my best
21:31to help you find the truth
21:33and clear your name.
21:39Let's go to the horse.
21:41Da Ge Ling, Madam,
21:43you are finally back.
21:47We have made you worried.
21:49Let's go.
21:57Don't worry, Madam.
21:59I...
22:01I am not worried.
22:09The ancestors of the Shen family
22:11are in heaven.
22:13Da Ge Ling
22:15is now missing.
22:17Missing.
22:19Missing.
22:33It's getting late.
22:39You should rest early.
22:43Okay.
22:47Okay.
22:55Where are you going?
22:59To sleep.
23:17I have something more important
23:19to do for you.
23:23Shen Dong, I...
23:37You said
23:39I won't be alone anymore.
23:41Since you have the courage
23:43to break in,
23:45you won't be able to escape
23:47in the future.
23:51I will keep my word.
23:53I will keep my word.
23:55I will keep my word.
23:57I will keep my word.
24:11I will keep my word.
24:13I will keep my word.
24:15I will keep my word.
24:17I will keep my word.
24:19I will keep my word.
24:21I will keep my word.
24:23I will keep my word.
24:25I will keep my word.
24:27I will keep my word.
24:29I will keep my word.
24:31I will keep my word.
24:33I will keep my word.
24:35I will keep my word.
24:37I will keep my word.
24:39There is always a place
24:41where the clouds and the sea meet.
24:43I want to accompany you
24:45through the ages,
24:47waiting for the love to die
24:49and the white hair to grow gray.
24:51In this life,
24:53I will only put you
24:55in my heart.
24:57The Long Ballad
25:07Assistant Minister Zhang has arrived.
25:21The Empress Dowager asked me to bring you something.
25:23This is a token of appreciation
25:25to the Chief Supervisor of the Ministry of Justice,
25:27Yan Xing.
25:29Ten thousand bolts of silk
25:31and ten thousand taels of gold
25:33have been donated to Xianqi Palace.
25:37I thank the Empress Dowager for the gift.
25:39Yan Xing
25:51The Empress Dowager has another decree.
26:01The Empress Dowager has a decree.
26:03Today, Shen Du of the Grand Cabinet
26:05will pacify the rebellion
26:07and make peace with all the states.
26:09He will be meritorious
26:11and get all the rewards.
26:13He will have a royal family
26:15and a gentle family.
26:17He will have friendship and friendship.
26:19He will be courteous and polite.
26:21Today is the day when
26:23he will return to the capital.
26:25The two of them will have a good marriage.
26:27Today, he has issued a decree to grant them marriage.
26:29I hope that they will be close to the country
26:31and have the same heart and the same virtue.
26:37Yan Xing
26:47Brother Ling,
26:49this is the Empress Dowager's decree.
26:51It cannot be changed by other people's will.
26:55At least, accept this decree first.
27:07I don't want to marry Princess Jia'an, and my wife doesn't want me to marry anyone else.
27:37Your Majesty.
27:43Do you know why the Empress Dowager wants me to read out this decree?
27:47This kind of award should be done by the Astronomy Bureau.
27:50Why me?
27:54Why?
27:57You don't understand?
28:00Doesn't Da Ge Ling understand?
28:06Please make it clear. Don't play dumb with me.
28:17For the sake of Han Shiyuan, I will tell you the truth.
28:21So that Shiyuan won't blame me later.
28:25Think about it.
28:27Princess Jia'an is Prince Ying's favorite daughter.
28:31Prince Ying is also the Empress Dowager's favorite princess.
28:36Prince Ying's personality is very similar to that of the Empress Dowager.
28:40That's why he has the most favor.
28:42He even has Prince Xian on his side.
28:45Under such circumstances,
28:47why would he give Princess Jia'an to Da Ge Ling as his concubine?
28:54Da Ge Ling is a man of great power,
28:56a man of great wealth,
28:58and a man of great honor.
29:00He can be looked up to.
29:03But Da Ge Ling has no one to rely on.
29:06What's more,
29:09he married you, a lowly concubine.
29:12Even if Princess Jia'an wants to get married,
29:15she should be able to choose among the royal families.
29:19Why marry Shen Du?
29:22Your father said
29:23that the Shen family only has one Shen Du.
29:27The ones who are related to the Shen family
29:29are only Mo Qingzhi and that steward.
29:32If Mo Qingzhi dies,
29:35then Shen Du will be the most unreliable person in the imperial court.
29:41And he oversees all the officials.
29:44If anything goes wrong,
29:46it will be easy for him to die.
29:54So,
29:57if you can't bear to part with your child,
30:02Shen Du will be the one.
30:12Changsheng,
30:15no matter what Grand Empress Dowager says,
30:17I will not change my mind.
30:24But there's no need to grant her the marriage.
30:30Shen Meng has already married.
30:33She won't marry again in this life.
30:45Assistant Minister Zhang,
30:47I will return to the palace with you to cancel the marriage.
30:53Shen Du!
30:55Ge Ling!
30:56Shen Du!
31:16Ge Ling!
31:21Are you trying to disobey the imperial decree?
31:24Grand Empress Dowager,
31:25I have a deep relationship with Madam.
31:27Besides, I am in charge of the cabinet.
31:28I have many complaints about overseeing the officials.
31:30It's not a good job.
31:32I don't want Princess Jia'an to suffer.
31:35If it wasn't for me,
31:37how could you be able to marry Princess Jia'an?
31:40Princess Jia'an has a noble status.
31:42I know I don't deserve her.
31:43I dare not covet her.
31:45Grand Empress Dowager, please withdraw your order.
31:47You...
31:50How dare you!
31:58I have been an official for many years.
32:01I have never thought of anything for myself.
32:05Only today,
32:07Grand Empress Dowager, please withdraw your order.
32:09I will definitely do my best
32:11and die for her.
32:16Shen Ge Ling is loyal.
32:19I can see that
32:20you must think twice before you act.
32:26I know
32:27Grand Empress Dowager is trying hard to pave the way for me.
32:29I am sincere in my work
32:31to share the burden of Grand Empress Dowager.
32:33If I need to marry Princess Jia'an
32:35in order to protect her,
32:38then Grand Empress Dowager
32:39can't trust my ability.
32:41Grand Empress Dowager,
32:42what happened to you again?
32:44Ming Tang is in trouble.
32:47What?
33:01The people I sent there
33:02have investigated many times
33:03but found nothing wrong.
33:05And this time,
33:06they were too greedy
33:08and exposed their flaws.
33:10They were just caught.
33:11When they went back to investigate,
33:13they found the problem.
33:16Someone split the account book of Yin and Yang.
33:19The account book of Yin and Yang?
33:21What is Yin?
33:22What is Yang?
33:24The so-called Yin and Yang
33:25is a book on the front page.
33:27It is used to record the accounts of Longmen.
33:29And there is another book
33:30in the back.
33:31It is used to record the accounts of the four corners.
33:35Continue.
33:37Continue.
33:39The book on the front page
33:40records the accounts of Longmen.
33:43The accountants are clever.
33:45According to the account book,
33:47there is no mistake.
33:49Therefore, since Ming Tang was built,
33:52the Ministry of Revenue has investigated
33:54but found nothing wrong.
33:56And the other account book
33:58is used to record the accounts of the four corners.
34:00So at first glance,
34:01we can't find anything related
34:03to the account book of Ming Tang.
34:06How much is it?
34:23How dare you!
34:25You can embezzle
34:26more than 20 million taels of silver.
34:29The officials involved in the reconstruction
34:31have nothing to do with it,
34:33except for Zhang Baohuan and Mr. Zhang.
34:35Baohuan is not good at this account book
34:38and is not so bold.
34:42But
34:44this matter of Ming Tang
34:46was entrusted to her.
34:49She has the crime of insubordination.
34:52Let her go.
34:54Go to the courtyard to rest.
34:58Yes.
34:59As for others...
35:01These officials
35:02are from various parties in the court.
35:07Various parties?
35:10Including the Zhou family?
35:14Please forgive me, Your Majesty.
35:26You are not guilty.
35:28I...
35:30I only think that
35:32although the officials in the court
35:34have their own thoughts,
35:37they are all happy
35:39but have never thought that
35:44this poison
35:46is in danger.
35:49Now it is
35:51moving in secret.
35:54It is hard to predict people's mind.
35:57The Empress Dowager is dedicated to the country,
35:59while the officials in the court
36:01have their own thoughts.
36:03Especially when it comes to
36:04Mo Qianzhi, the governor of Yingzhou,
36:06no one has accepted it yet.
36:08I think
36:10they can't wait any longer.
36:12It's time
36:14to hit them hard.
36:20Your Majesty,
36:22the Imperial Household Department in Shendu
36:24rarely deals with others.
36:25They do their best
36:27and will be a good candidate.
36:29However,
36:30if he marries Princess Jia'an,
36:33I'm afraid he will be
36:35a hindrance in the future.
36:45If you want to help him,
36:47you have to see
36:49if he is smart enough.
36:56As for Mingtang,
36:58keep it a secret.
37:02Yes.
37:03Send my order
37:06to the Imperial Household Department
37:08and the Imperial Household Department.
37:25Your Majesty.
37:56Your Majesty.
38:14You are really not afraid of anything.
38:18I thought
38:19it was inevitable to suffer.
38:22I didn't expect it to be smoother than I thought.
38:26Do you mean
38:28the marriage cancellation
38:29is over?
38:32Not necessarily.
38:34The Empress Dowager
38:35hasn't been angry yet.
38:39But the marriage cancellation
38:42might have something to do with the book.
38:44I think Prince Ying
38:46is afraid that I will give him
38:47the ceremony of helping Yingzhou soldiers.
38:50So he asked the Empress Dowager
38:52to marry me.
38:55But it's a pity
38:57that the Empress Dowager
38:58has no time to think about it.
39:03Something big happened in Mingtang.
39:08You knew it long ago.
39:15Shen Du.
39:17Did Xu just report it
39:21by chance?
39:23People don't know
39:25that Mingtang has
39:26another meaning
39:27for the Empress Dowager.
39:30It is the place of friendship
39:31between the Empress Dowager
39:32and the late emperor.
39:33After Mingtang was broken,
39:35the Empress Dowager
39:36was very concerned about the reconstruction.
39:38She not only sent
39:39Zhang Baohuan,
39:40whom she trusted very much,
39:41but also ordered
39:42to repair the capital
39:43and seal the top.
39:45Seal the top?
39:47The capital is not on the line.
39:49It doesn't mean that the residences below
39:50can be protected.
39:53How much does it involve?
39:56I'm afraid it can affect
39:57the whole court.
40:01They have completely
40:02angered the Empress Dowager.
