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.
21:39Go and get the horse.
21:41Dage, Ling, Madam,
21:43you are finally back.
21:47We have made you worried.
21:49Dage, Ling, Madam,
21:51you are finally back.
21:57Madam, don't worry.
22:01I am not worried.
22:09The ancestors of the Shen family
22:11are in heaven.
22:13Dage, Ling,
22:15you are wrong now.
22:17You are wrong now.
22:19You are wrong now.
22:33It's getting late.
22:39You should go to bed early.
22:43Okay.
22:47Okay.
22:55Where are you going?
22:59To bed.
23:17I have something more important
23:19to do for you.
23:23Shen Dong,
23:25I...
23:37You said
23:39I won't be alone anymore.
23:41I won't be alone anymore.
23:43I won't be alone anymore.
23:45Qinglan,
23:47you can't escape from me in the future.
23:53I will keep my word.
23:55I will keep my word.
23:57I 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.
24:39I will keep my word.
24:41I will keep my word.
24:43I will keep my word.
24:45I will keep my word.
24:47I will keep my word.
24:49I will keep my word.
24:51I will keep my word.
24:53I will keep my word.
24:55I will keep my word.
24:57I will keep my word.
24:59I will keep my word.
25:01I will keep my word.
25:03I will keep my word.
25:05I will keep my word.
25:07I will keep my word.
25:09I will keep my word.
25:11I will keep my word.
25:13I will keep my word.
25:15I will keep my word.
25:17I will keep my word.
25:23Your Highness,
25:25Firely As IF
25:27Firely As IF
25:29and 10,000 taels of gold.
25:31To show her merit, I will give her a generous reward.
25:37Thank you, Your Majesty.
25:51Your Majesty, there is one more decree.
26:00The Grand Empress Dowager has decreed that
26:03Shen Du, the leader of the Inner Council,
26:06should pacify the rebellion and unite all the states.
26:09He should be meritorious and be a good example to all.
26:12His daughter, Jia'an, should be gentle and considerate.
26:16Wan Yi should be righteous.
26:18Xing Duan should be elegant.
26:20Li Jiao should be courteous.
26:22Jin Ji and Fang Nian should be well-educated.
26:24The two should be a perfect match.
26:26I hereby decree the marriage.
26:29I hope that Jin Ji and the state will be of one heart and one mind.
26:47Da Ge Ling, this is the Grand Empress Dowager's decree.
26:50It's not someone else's decision to decide.
26:53You should at least receive the decree first.
27:24Minister Zhang, as you can see,
27:26I have no intention of marrying Princess Jia'an.
27:29My wife does not want me to marry anyone else.
27:33I hope that the Grand Empress Dowager will understand.
27:40Do you know why the Grand Empress Dowager
27:42asked me to read this decree?
27:44This kind of award should be done by the Astronomy Bureau.
27:47Why should it be me?
27:49Why?
27:52You don't understand.
27:55Does Da Ge Ling not understand?
28:04Please make it clear to me.
28:06Don't hide it from me.
28:12For the sake of Han Shiyuan,
28:14I will not marry you.
28:17For the sake of Han Shiyuan,
28:19I will reveal it to you
28:21so that you won't blame me
28:23when you find out.
28:25Think about it.
28:27Princess Jia'an is Prince Ying's favorite daughter.
28:32And Prince Ying is the Grand Empress Dowager's favorite princess.
28:36Prince Ying's personality is similar to that of the Grand Empress Dowager.
28:40That's why he has received the most love.
28:42He has even surpassed Prince Xian.
28:46In such a situation,
28:48why did he grant Princess Jia'an
28:50to Da Ge Ling as his concubine?
28:54Da Ge Ling has great power and great achievements.
28:57He also has the nobility and glory of a person
28:59that is superior to ten thousand others.
29:01He can be looked up to.
29:03But Da Ge Ling has no one to rely on
29:05when it comes to her courage and wisdom.
29:07What's more,
29:09she married you,
29:11a lowly concubine.
29:13Even if Princess Jia'an wants to marry him,
29:15she should be able to choose
29:17among the royal families.
29:19Why does it have to be Shen Du?
29:21Your father said
29:23that the Shen family
29:25only has Shen Du.
29:27Those who are related to the Shen family
29:29are only Mo Qingzhi and that steward.
29:32Mo Qingzhi is dead.
29:35Then Shen Du is the most
29:37unreliable person
29:39in the imperial court.
29:41He oversees all the officials.
29:43If anything goes wrong,
29:45it's very easy for him to die.
29:54So,
29:58if you can't bear to lose your child,
30:02Shen Du is your choice.
30:13Zhang Shui,
30:16I can accept
30:18whatever the Empress Dowager says.
30:29But you don't have to grant her the marriage.
30:36Shen Meng has already married.
30:39She won't marry again in this life.
30:44Zhang Shui,
30:48I will return to the palace with you
30:50to cancel the marriage.
30:55Shen Du!
30:57Ge Ling!
30:59Shen Du!
31:13Shen Du!
31:15Shen Du!
31:17Shen Du!
31:19Shen Du!
31:21Do you want to disobey the imperial decree?
31:24Empress Dowager,
31:26I have a deep relationship with my wife.
31:28Besides, I am in charge of the cabinet
31:30and supervise the officials.
31:32It's not a good job.
31:34I don't want Princess Jia'an to suffer.
31:36If it wasn't for me,
31:38how could you betray Princess Jia'an?
31:40Princess Jia'an has a noble status.
31:42I know I don't deserve it.
31:44I don't dare to covet it.
31:46Please take back the imperial decree.
31:48You!
31:50How dare you!
31:58I have been an official for years.
32:02I have never thought about anything for myself.
32:06Only today,
32:08I beg you to take back the imperial decree.
32:10Otherwise,
32:12I will kill myself.
32:18Shen Ge Ling is loyal.
32:20You must think twice
32:22before you act.
32:26I know
32:28Empress Dowager is trying hard to pave the way for me.
32:30I work hard
32:32to share Empress Dowager's burden.
32:34If I have to marry Princess Jia'an
32:36to protect her,
32:38Empress Dowager
32:40will never trust me.
32:44Empress Dowager,
32:46what happened to you?
32:48Ming Tang is in trouble.
32:50What?
33:04I have sent people to investigate.
33:06But they didn't find anything.
33:08This time,
33:10they were too greedy.
33:12They found a flaw.
33:14When they went back to investigate,
33:16they found something.
33:18Someone
33:20split Yin and Yang accounts.
33:22Yin and Yang accounts?
33:24What is Yin and what is Yang?
33:26Yin and Yang
33:28is a book on the surface.
33:30It is used to record accounts.
33:32There is another book
33:34that is used to record accounts.
33:36Go on.
33:38This book on the surface
33:40records accounts
33:42of Longmen.
33:44The accountants are ingenious.
33:46From the account book,
33:48there is no flaw.
33:50Therefore,
33:52the Ministry of Revenue
33:54can't find anything wrong.
33:56The other book
33:58is used to record accounts.
34:00Therefore,
34:02the Ministry of Revenue
34:04can't find anything wrong.
34:06How much is it?
34:22How dare they!
34:24They can embezzle
34:26more than 20 million taels of silver.
34:28The officials involved
34:30are all involved.
34:32Except for Zhang Baohuan.
34:34Minister Zhang.
34:36Baohuan is not good at accounting.
34:38She is not so bold.
34:42However,
34:44Mingtang
34:46was handed over to her.
34:48She has the crime of
34:50not being able to supervise.
34:52Let her go.
34:54Go to the courtyard
34:56to rest.
34:58Yes.
35:00What about the others?
35:02These officials
35:04are all parties.
35:08All parties?
35:10Including
35:12the Zhou family?
35:14Please forgive me
35:16for speaking out of turn.
35:18Why did you drink?
35:26Why did you drink?
35:30I thought
35:32although the officials
35:34are all concerned,
35:36they are all happy.
35:38But I didn't expect
35:40that
35:44the poison
35:46would be so dangerous.
35:48Now
35:50the poison is spreading.
35:54It's hard to predict.
35:56The Empress Dowager
35:58is concerned about the country.
36:00But the officials
36:02are all concerned.
36:04Especially when
36:06the governor of Yingzhou, Mo Qianzhi,
36:08has not been appointed yet.
36:10I think
36:12they can't wait.
36:14It's time to teach them a lesson.
36:20Your Highness.
36:22The Imperial Guards
36:24don't fight with others.
36:26They do their best.
36:28He is a good candidate.
36:30But if he marries
36:32Princess Jia'an,
36:34I'm afraid
36:36there will be trouble in the future.
36:44If you want to help him,
36:46you have to see
36:48if he is smart enough.
36:56Don't make a fuss
36:58about Mingtang.
37:00Do it secretly.
37:02Yes.
37:04The Imperial Guards
37:06and the Imperial Household Department
37:08send my orders separately.
37:14Yes.
37:44Your Highness.
38:14You are really
38:16not afraid of anything.
38:18I thought
38:20it was inevitable to suffer.
38:22I didn't expect it to be more smooth than I thought.
38:26You mean
38:28the marriage cancellation
38:30is over?
38:32Not necessarily.
38:34The Empress Dowager
38:36hasn't been angry yet.
38:38But the marriage cancellation
38:40is strange.
38:42I'm afraid it has something to do with that book.
38:44It must be Prince Ying
38:46who is afraid that I will give him
38:48the Silver Boat Cavalry.
38:50So he asked the Empress Dowager
38:52to marry me.
38:54But it's a pity
38:56that the Empress Dowager
38:58has no time to think about it.
39:02Mingtang is in trouble.
39:08You knew it long ago.
39:12Yes.
39:14Shen Du.
39:18Did Xu
39:20report it
39:22by chance?
39:24People don't know
39:26that Mingtang has a deep meaning
39:28for the Empress Dowager.
39:30It is the place
39:32where the Empress Dowager and the late emperor fell in love.
39:34After Mingtang was broken,
39:36the Empress Dowager was very concerned about the reconstruction.
39:38Not only did she send
39:40Zhang Baohuan to fight,
39:42but she also ordered to repair the capital
39:44and seal the top.
39:46Seal the top?
39:48The capital is not on the line.
39:50It doesn't mean that the residence below
39:52can be protected.
39:54How much does it involve?
39:56I'm afraid it can
39:58shake the entire court.
40:02They have completely angered
40:04the Empress Dowager.
40:10The Empress Dowager has no time to think about it.
