Bei Zhai.

Master Bei Zhai.

Yes, Colonel.

So this is where Bei Zhai lives.

Captain Shen,

I can't believe you'd fight me

for such trivial case.

I just want to see Bei Zhai for myself.

You can take the credit.

Hold there

Royal guard.

Who else lives here?

Speak!

Are you Bei Zhai?

Answer me!

Are you Bei Zhai or not?

There's no one else.

Stay still.

No doubt she is the one.

You rebel.

Shut your eyes.

Move!

What the hell are you doing?

It'd be a waste to kill her now.

Lieutenant Ling!

You traitors are indeed stubborn.

Get your hands off me!

Killing you directly is

equally entertaining.

What do you think you're doing?

Colonel Lu just wants her dead.

Don't complicate things.

Is it you or me who's complicating things?

You know this woman.

No-.

No wonder you tagged along.

What are you writing?

Shen Lian,

is a supporter of the Donglin rebels.

Give it to me.

You want to kill me?

You don't scare me.

Shen Lian.

You're mine.

I have the proof that you're

helping the rebels.

Hand me your Notebook of Justice.

I dare you.

Shen Lian,

do you have any idea who I am?

Master Wei is my uncle.

Lieutenant Ling!

Lieutenant Ling!

Lieutenant...

Lieutenant Ling and I were ambushed.

How many of them were there?

Two.

Two.

Was one of them Bei Zhai?

I can't say for sure.

Did you know Lieutenant Ling

was Master Wei's nephew?

What a mess.

Commander Han has ordered

the Southern Bureau handle the case.

Even I must be cautious to avoid suspicion.

I have to go greet him now.

Cakes from Glorious Moon Bakery.

Freshly baked this morning.

Have a bite.

And you are...

Well, I used to work at the

Northern Bureau.

I made a mistake

and was demoted to the Southern Bureau.

We've met before.

My name is Pei Lun.

I'm in charge of Lieutenant Ling's case.

Pleasure to meet you.

I have a lotto learn from you.

Shen,

come.

This is not a knife wound.

Scissors.

The criminal attacked Lieutenant Ling

with a pair of scissors.

Go find Lieutenant Ling's

Notebook of Justice.

Yes, Captain.

Do you like paintings?

No-.

Not found.

Have your Notebook of Justice on you?

Shen,

At all times.

I wonder why Lieutenant Ling's

Notebook of Justice

is nowhere to be found.

You'd have to ask him.

I smell rouge.

Shen,

were the two criminals last night men?

Captain Pei,

are you trying to be funny?

Pei,

thanks for your hard work.

Greetings, Your Honor.

Ask me if you have any questions.

Shen Lian will be promoted to

Lieutenant Colonel next year.

Shen Lian will be promoted

to Lieutenant Colonel next year.

I see.

I will be sure to write the report

in his favor.

You have nothing to worry about.

Bei Zhai...

Bei Zhai won't get away with it.

Come on.

Whose punishment is the execution of three

generations of the perpetrator's family

West Mountain, Cloud Hillside. After sunset

Was it you?

Why stop?

You must regret

killing that Imperial Guard.

Where's Bei Zhai?

She's the only witness to your crime.

Why would I bring her with me?

You want money?

No-.

I want you to burn down

the Imperial Guard Archives.

What?

You heard me.

The Archives are extremely important.

If caught,

I'll be executed by a thousand cuts.

Well,

either we turn you in,

or you set the fire.

Your call.

One on three is a challenge.

But if worse comes to worst,

I can still run.

Your skills are from the Frontier Force!

The Frontier Force was no fun.

I enjoy being a bandit more.

Let's go a few more rounds for fun.

How's that?

Chong'er, block his retreat.

Master Ding.

Master Ding.

Master Ding.

You drove away my disciples.

You wanted me from the beginning.

Good thinking.

What a shame.

Okay,

I'll burn the Archives.

But you have to give me Bei Zhai.

Imperial Guard Archive, Northern Bureau

Your Honor.

How do you do?

Why so many Eastern Depot men?

Master Wei has ordered

the Archives closed today

to examine all the documents

on the dragon ship's construction.

You cannot go in.

Your Honor.

Your Honor.

You cannot go in.

Your Honor.

Your Honor.

This area belongs to the Imperial Guard.

You have no authority here.

The Imperial Guard are

Master Wei's watchdogs.

The Bureau is Master Wei's kennel.

No need to overreact.

It's just an investigation.

Inspector Zheng,

let's not get upset with these

small potatoes.

This dragon ship case

is too important to His Majesty.

Cats and dogs can't be allowed in there.

Understand?

Lu, I'm not talking about you.

It's okay.

Lu, you should stay outside, too.

I understand.

You're still under investigation.

What are you doing here?

Pei Lun from the Southern Bureau

has his eyes on you.

Watch out.

I'll get this.

Go.

Your Honor.

Please enjoy.

The vegetarian meals of Yong'an Temple

certainly deserve their reputation.

Master Jinghai,

I heard you've been

collecting Bei Zhai's paintings.

Where do you keep them?

Yes.

I have many paintings,

a few are by Bei Zhai.

I give them away to our donors

to express our gratitude

Like whom?

I'm afraid I can't remember.

You know,

Bei Zhai is a Donglin rebel.

I must know who's been collecting

his paintings.

Your Honor,

paintings are just paintings.

Besides,

our donors are very good people.

Monk Jinghai says,

those who collect Donglin rebel paintings

are very good people.

This one sentence

could ruin Master Jinghai's life's work.

Now tell me,

who collected Bei Zhai's paintings?

My apologies for keeping you here.

Please don't say that, Master Ding.

His Highness

has been thinking about you.

I know.

Your Highness.

How is she?

Wo-style swordplay.

She's a descendant of Qi.

Father,

please bless me.

One stick of incense for one round.

Master Wei has ordered

the Archives closed today

to examine all the documents

on the dragon ship's construction.

His Majesty was on Taiye Lake

with his new dragon ship,

and suddenly it sank.

This dragon ship case

is too important to His Majesty.

Lu, you should stay outside, too.

Inspector Zheng.

Open the doors.

Yes, Your Honor.

You two wait here.

Yes, Your Honor.

The ship frame left the factory twice

for examination.

Examiner,

Guo Zhen.

Master Guo from the Eastern Depot.

No wonder he looks familiar.

Guo was Grand Secretary

of the Department of Royal Construction.

I was planning to call

the watchmen after you left the yard.

I underestimated your vigilance.

No need to look around.

There's only me.

Show me your face!

The Imperial Brocade Blade!

You're an Imperial Guard!

Too late to run.

You're dead meat.

You little traitor.

How dare you set fire to the Archives!

It's you!

I saw the fire.

Where's Bei Zhai?

I'm sorry.

You killed Guo, didn't you?

I didn't know he was the Grand Secretary

of the Department of Royal Construction.

He sabotaged the ship.

Almost killed the Emperor.

What do you want?

I have the

"Construction Log of the Dragon Ship."

I'll trade it for Bei Zhai.

She's not here.

You two belong to the same gang.

If you can't make the deal,

tell your master to come see me.
