You're rude.

Your Highness, excuse me for being rude.

I am here today because

someone is accusing Your Highness

for sheltering rebels, hiding stolen

royal articles and intending to rebel.

How dare you!

Although I'm low in rank,

I've the order of the Emperor.

Although Your Highness

has a higher position,

treason cannot be taken lightly.

You said you have

the order of the Emperor,

but I don't know who you are.

How can you prove yourself?

I have the seal.

Where's the seal?

Your Highness seems to know

that I've lost my seal.

Unfortunately, the one stolen

was a fake one.

- Yu Mo.

- Yes, sir.

It seems Yan is going

to arrest the Prince, hurry...

Master Lan, by the order of Master Shen,

Yan Chun Min is taking his men

to arrest the Prince.

There are people fighting in the hall.

Master Shen told me to ask you

to take some men to help.

Yes.

Master Lan, what are we going to do?

Let's turn on the traps first.

How cunning of Lan Xiao!

I suppose he'd be sent away

by Shen Zhong Yuan

not realizing that

he'd turn on the traps before going.

Don't blame me if you're dead.

The trap is activated.

Finally there's no need

to be left dangling anymore.

Brother Han.

You must be Brother Zhi, the Black Fox.

All right... Yan Chun Min.

You said someone is

accusing me of treason.

Who's the plaintiff?

Of course there's someone.

- Bring Ai Fu.

- Yes, sir.

So it's this Ai Fu.

Who's this person?

He's a servant at our residence.

Servant accusing the master.

Yan Chun Min, do you know

the laws of our regime?

Of course I do.

Your Highness, please have a look

at Ai Fu's wounds.

I have already flogged

and cross-examined him.

- Capture this traitor!

- Yes, sire!

Your Highness wants to silence him?

Capture Yan Chun Min, too.

Yes, sire.

Hurry.

There's a copper net trap upstairs,

it's very dangerous.

I heard that Brother Bai died there.

That's correct.

But just standing here won't help, either.

At least we have to try.

That's correct.

Then I have to hang in the air again.

We may not be able to go upstairs,

but do as I say and try.

All right.

Come on.

They are Master Xu, the Mountain Rat,

and Master Jiang, the River Rat.

That's us.

It's Master Zhi.

Hello, I am Zhi Hua.

Hey, I'm still hanging in the air.

Brother, don't worry, I'm coming.

Go...

- We're leaving, too.

- Go...

Shen Zhong Yuan,

you are from the Kaifeng.

- Are you all right?

- I'm fine.

Be careful, there's...

Brother!

- Third Brother!

- Brother Xu!

Third Brother.

It's my fault.

I think Brother Bai would feel lonely

over there.

I could keep him company.

Brother Xu!

- Third Brother.

- Brother Xu!

Third Brother.

If only Big Brother

could have been here earlier.

This is Zhi Hua, our Big Brother.

Brother Lu, we've met before.

Brother Zhi.

The Prince of Xiangyang

has hidden all the treasures in here.

The jade horse and the pearl crown

are in there.

How are we going to get them out?

They are controlled by traps.

Although Lan Xiao was sent away

by Shen Zhong Yuan,

he turned on the traps before he left.

The switches don't work here.

The key is with Lan Xiao.

Then we can't take it.

I've made some preparations.

This seal is a fake one, it's useless.

This is the pearl crown.

This is the jade horse.

What's in this box?

This...

It used to contain the list of the names,

but now the list is not here.

The list is the most important thing of all.

Brother Zhi, where else could it be?

You'd have to ask the Prince.

I really don't know.

The Prince of Xiangyang is in the hall.

Although Lord Yan

has brought a lot of men...

Against Hua Chong, Deng Che...

Even with those guards,

they can't resist them.

Let's get back quickly.

Second Brother, protect His Lordship.

The list is not at the House of Traps.

Your Highness,

the list is not in the House of Traps.

So what?

You should realize that

you have lost your power.

Hand over the list.

His Majesty might spare your life.

Everyone outside

is fighting for their master.

I can't blame them, but you,

whom I have treated so well,

turned out to be a traitor

and are now putting pressure on me.

Your Highness, did you hear that?

Hua Chong and Deng Che are dead.

You'd better hand over the list.

All right, I'll help you fulfill

your career aspirations.

Take it.

Father, please forgive my incompetence.

I can only follow your footsteps to death.

The Prince of Xiangyang

committed suicide. Here's the list.

The list is in my stomach.

Cut me up and take it.

Then I'll cut you up.

You could have gotten the list,

but why did you let Hua Chong grab it?

Once the Prince of Xiangyang is dead,

his power is gone.

This list will cause the death of many.

What do you want it for?

Fame and riches bring disasters to many.

These people used to live

comfortably on the island.

Now they end up like this.

I'm afraid the list can never be found.
