[Ministry of Personnel]
Dage.
Why hasn't anyone come out yet?
I told you two to just stay at the inn.
You didn't have to come here.
How could we not?
What if they bully you, the new guy?
If we are here,
we can help you garner respect.
Have you met me?
Who would dare bully me?
Ye Xiaotian.
Coming.
Tiju Ye.
You were granted an interview with Lord Guo when you've just come here.
It is enviable.
You flatter me.
By the way,
as a Tiju,
what am I in charge of exactly?
To tell you the truth,
all officials in the Ministry of Personnel are at least of the 6th rank.
There is no position here that would correspond to your rank.
The lords have set up this
Tiju position especially for you.
So it's not quite clear to me
what you are in charge of.
I see.
Here we are.
Lord Ye.
This would be your office.
Tiju Ye.
I see that you are of dignified bearing.
You must be a talented man.
I hope for your guidance and support.
Of course.
Thank you, Mr. Wang.
I'll be taking my leave.
Did you hear?
They set up this position just for me.
There must be more to it.
Dage.
It smells.
Look.
The paint on the pillars is still wet.
Of course it smells.
Dage.
Did they set you up with a sinecure so you can stay here doing nothing?
It would be fine if it's just that.
But I'm afraid something might happen.
Dage.
Is something wrong?
It's fine.
I didn't plan on staying in the capital for long anyway.
I would have found myself some trouble anyway.
Why should I be afraid?
Right.
Dage has a point.
Let's go.
It smells in here.
Let's go take a walk outside.
[Waiting area]
The man in the waiting area is the county magistrate of Jiangpu, Mr. Bai Hong.
That's him.
This man is greedy.
He doesn't care about the people at all.
During a famine he doesn't report it.
He only cares about his record for which he forces the people to pay taxes.
He also forces the people to praise him.
His bad reputation is known by everyone.
That Bai Hong...
let's teach him a lesson.
Great. I'm in.
Dage.
You just came here.
Is this really a good idea?
Why shouldn't it be?
If I want to go back to Huxian,
I have to do something.
I can't do anything serious
but something minor like this should be just fine.
Bai Hong is a corrupt official anyway.
He is our best candidate.
You are waiting for your interview?
Yes.
I'm waiting for assistant Minister Meng.
You are...?
I am in charge of receiving the officials waiting in the waiting area.
ForgIve my rudeness.
If you are going to see the assistant minister,
you can't go in like this.
Look.
Your clothes are wrinkled,
your belt is tied all wrong.
The most important thing is this hat,
it is crooked.
I...
The assistant minister
puts particular importance on the appearance.
By the way, did you know?
There was an official last time who took his hat off due to the hot weather
during a meeting with the assistant minister.
Guess what happened?
He was lowered two ranks.
Right?
Yes.
I heard about that. I heard about that.
Yes, yes, yes.
I... I, er...
Here,
you two help him with his attire.
Yes, sir.
M-Much appreciated.
The hat.
My Lord.
Look.
Now it's much better,
isn't it?
Thank you.
I still have to wait here.
I can't leave.
So, here.
Just something to show my respect.
Let me buy you some tea.
Er... Lord Ye.
Take it.
Just take it.
Take it.
Thank you, my Lord.
Thank you.
I wish you great success in your career.
Thank you.
By the way,
don't take off your hat no matter what.
Alright.
I got you.
Thank you.
Goodbye, my Lord.
Thank you, thank you, everyone.
Lord Meng asks to see Jiangpu's magistrate Bai Hong.
That would be me.
Good. Sir.
This way.
Magistrate Bai.
Yes, sir.
Judging by the assessment of your recent years' performance,
you did a good job.
You always collect the taxes on time.
No big security issues in your county, either.
My Lord, you flatter me.
This is all thanks to our great emperor and your support.
I shouldn't be given the credit.
You don't need to be modest.
I heard that your people
praise you highly.
You have a good reputation.
What?
Am I wrong?
No. No.
My Lord.
You are right. What you say is very true.
My...
My reputation is indeed...
great.
Magistrate Bai.
Don't be nervous.
Do I really appear that intimidating?
Is it that you suffer from epilepsy?
You are a county magistrate,
such behavior is embarrassing.
Where are your manners?
My Lord.
I am not being disrespectful.
I just...
I truly...
I can't take it anymore.
I'm sorry, my Lord.
I'm going to take off my hat.
What... What...
You're keeping a scorpion
inside your hat?
My Lord.
I... I don't keep scorpions.
This scorpion... This is...
I know!
I know now.
This scorpion
It was him. It must have been him.
Who?
It... It was him!
I'm Ye Xiaotian.
Greetings, Lord Meng.
Greetings, Lord Guo
A few days ago,
someone held a charity bazaar and
saved many flood victims.
That man's name is also Ye Xiaotian.
It was me.
Ye Xiaotian.
Tell me,
why did you play such jokes on the Jiangpu magistrate
and put a poisonous scorpion in his hat?
My Lord.
Bai Hong is a corrupt official.
I could not restrain my anger,
thus I played this joke on him.
Unbelievable.
You fool.
How can you do this?
You can't just say he is a corrupt official.
We have assessment officials to judge whether he is or not.
How can you claim he is a corrupt official without any evidence?
Who do you think you are
to come here and do something like this?
My Lord. You sit high up in your leading position.
So you do not know about many things.
It's often the people below who know
whether a man is a good official or a bad one.
Are you saying I can't tell right from wrong?
I wouldn't dare.
This is ridiculous.
When did you assume post here?
What is your position?
I was transferred here just today.
I hold the position of Tiju.
Does our Ministry of Personnel
have a position like this?
My Lord.
We didn't have such a position before. However...
My Lord,
the Guojiuye asked the minister to let me set it up.
I mean... You fool.
Even if he was instated with the help of Li Guojiu,
he could have been sent to any yamen,
why did you have to create a Tiju position
and send him to us? - My Lord, I think... - Enough. Enough.
Such a hothead like that
shouldn't be with our Ministry of Personnel.
Setting up a Tiju post for you
isn't proper.
There is no room
for someone senseless like you
in the Ministry of Personnel.
So you love
to punish corrupt official? Go to the Ministry of Punishments.
Yes, sir.
My Lord.
I used to be the sheriff of Huxian.
Our county is poor and remote.
That's why I didn't know all these rules of the capital.
Why don't you send me back to Huxian?
I don't have to go the Ministry of Punishments.
Silence.
Are you in a position
to choose whatever post you want?
The Ministry of Personnel is the ministry that manages the officials.
I am the official that manages the officials.
You will have to go
wherever I tell you to go.
Lord Guo.
Write him a new report and transfer him
to the Ministry of Punishments.
Er...
Yes, my Lord.
That magistrate of Jiangpu,
I will have to check him thoroughly.
You are wise, my Lord.
Ministry of Punishments.
[Ministry of Punishments]
Lord Yang. This is the order from the Ministry of Personnel.
I have been transferred here.
Your case was solved?
It's solved.
You stayed in the Ministry of Personnel for just one day
before you got assigned here?
What's the matter?
Is this a rare thing?
I have never heard of it.
Actually, Minister Meng
liked me a lot.
He didn't want to send me here either,
but he thought that the penalty department is more suited to unfold my ability.
That's why he sent me here.
Wait here.
Ye Xiaotian.
He was transferred to the Ministry of Personnel.
Why was he assigned to my department after just one day?
I find this very strange.
But since he is here now,
we can't just not take him in.
What a bastard.
Because the Ministry of Personnel doesn't want him,
they throw him our way.
Do they think we are some kind of garbage dump?
Whatever.
Appoint him an administrator's post.
Yes, sir.
Which department, sir?
None of the departments.
Just let him stay in the gatehouse for now.
An Administrator of Gatekeeping?
Is there such a position?
I think I've only heard about a
Gate Administrator.
You heard right.
It's the Administrator of Gatekeeping.
There was no such position before,
but we don't have any vacancies here.
So right now we can not set you up with a post.
So we've made up a...
I mean,
we've appointed this position to you.
Lord Yang.
But I'm an official.
You can't just let me watch a gate.
I didn't ask you to be a gatekeeper.
I asked you to administrate the gatekeepers.
Other than that, you are also in charge of
many of the yamen runners here.
Get familiar with the surroundings here.
We will set you up with another position soon.
Dage.
He is giving you a hard time on purpose.
Even a fool can see it.
But
he has his tricks,
I have mine.
We will see.
We were wronged!
- We want to file a suit! - We were wronged!
- Get lost! - I want to file a suit!
This is the Ministry of Punishments. Go find the Protector or the Village Chief to sort out your disputes.
Or go to the yamen on the other side. This is the Ministry of Punishments. We don't accept any cases.
Get lost! Get lost!
You can't do this! Why?
My Lord.
Find the Protector or the Village Chief! Leave!
Where do we go?
My Lord.
Why are you yelling?
If you didn't know that this is the Ministry of Punishments,
you'd think is the palace of hell.
My Lord. This is the Ministry of Punishments.
You think I don't know that?
Tell me,
who's in charge of this gate, you or me?
I'm the administrator, you should be
listening to me.
Step down.
My Lord. My Lord.
Stop yelling.
Buddy.
What injustice was done to you? Take your time.
- I didn't watch her bathe! - He did! This is a frame-up!
He just won't admit it.
- I wasn't watching you. - You destroy my reputation.
What proof do you have?
Who says I don't have proof?
- I saw you! - Why would anyone watch you?
Is that so?
This is bullshit!
You are shameless.
Admit that you watched me bathe!
Who watched you?
You're shameless!
Yes, I'm talking about you!
Tell me one by one.
My Lord.
I'm innocent.
I didn't watch widow Liu bathe.
How can she sue me for it?
She's spreading all these made up stories, defaming me.
I'm not even married yet.
She's damaging my reputation!
You didn't watch me bathe?
How dare you say you didn't?
If you lie I curse your whole family dead!
When I was taking a shower I slightly opened the window. I looked up and saw you there.
You were staring at me like a sneaky thief.
I was picking dates! I wasn't looking at you.
Picking dates?
My Lord.
There are two trees in my courtyard.
One is a date tree. The other one is also a date tree.
Every year it can harvest dozen kilos of dates.
The dates are sweet and tasty.
You're lying!
What month is it?
There aren't any dates on the trees yet!
I...
Don't "I" me!
I was in a haste
and made a mistake.
The trees in my home are loquats.
Yes.
Loquats.
Loquats?
Fine!
If you can, try moving two fruit-bearing loquats
into your yard right now!
My Lord.
If you don't believe me,
you can send your men to his house and check!
You two!
Don't bother the lord with a trivial case like this.
So he took a look at you, so what?
You weren't hurt.
This is about my reputation!
My Lord.
Please help my case first.
I have been raising a big fat pig for three and a half years.
It is fat and very big.
Its tummy droops on the floor.
But it was stolen by
that bastard!
What's this nonsense?
How dare you bother the lord over such trivial matter.
My Lord.
Please help me with my case first.
How is my matter bothering the lord?
I heard that
during the Song dynasty,
when people lost their pigs, they sue the culprits at the emperor's audience hall!
No matter how high an official our lord is, he can't be higher than the emperor now can he?
Brother.
That's the Song dynasty,
not our Ming dynasty.
You.
Just scram.
My Lord. Please solve my case first.
This is what happened.
Me and my brother take turns to take care of our father.
We agreed on each taking care of him once a month.
But this September...
Shut up.
Everyone, shut up!
What nonsense is all this?
Runners!
Get them out of here.
Get them all out of here!
Yes, sir.
My Lord.
Go!
My Lord. Go!
Drag them outside!
I really didn't watch her, my Lord!
I'm innocent!
Tell Ye Xiaotian to come see me at once!
My Lord.
I am just an Administrator of Gatekeeping.
So as an administrator,
I was just talking big in front of the guards.
Don't take it seriously.
What were you thinking
letting those people in?
Those trifling matters should be brought before the county or prefecture yamen.
The village head will help them solve it.
This is the Ministry of Punishments.
The Ministry of Punishments!
If it's not some earth-shattering case, I shouldn't even have to show up.
The mighty Ministry of Punishments.
If we had to handle every tiny case like a bachelor watching a widow bathe,
or a family losing their big fat pig,
or a neighbor taking up their neighbor's wall,
I'd work myself to death!
Now I see.
I come from a small place. I don't know the rules here.
In Huxian
we take on every little case no matter how small they are.
I thought this ministry was the same.
I thought I can let in anyone who has come to file a suit.
Let in?
What do you mean, "let in"?
You listen to me.
We don't take any cases directly.
Only the cases we are to solve
by order of the emperor.
Do you understand?
Now listen,
if you let anyone in tomorrow again,
I will make you regret it!
All right.
I understand now.
I won't make the same mistake again.
Dage.
Are you ok?
Of course I am.
We come from a small place. We are green and inexperienced.
It's just that I made a little mistake.
So what?
He can't dismiss me from office over a tiny issue like this.
He can transfer me,
but he can't dismiss me from office.
After all, we were appointed
by the imperial court.
If they don't like me, they should transfer me back to Huxian.
[Ministry of Punishments]
Strange.
Why is it so quiet today?
I haven't received a single file.
The Dalisi's Lord Zhang is here.
What brings you here,
Lord Zhang?
What brings me here?
Your ministry's power and authority of course.
Lord Zhang.
Why would you say that?
You...
The imperial censor Lord Pei is here.
Lord Pei.
Welcome, welcome.
Lord Qin.
What is going on with your Ministry of Punishments?
This morning, my censorate
sent men to bring you our files, but your men stopped them at the gate.
What is the meaning of this?
Do I have to personally come here?
Er...
Lord Pei.
That can't be.
There must be a misunderstanding here.
There must be.
A misunderstanding?
What misunderstanding?
It was the same with our Dalisi.
We were stopped at the gate, too.
Something about "Unless the case is ordered by the emperor himself,
no case will be received."
I didn't realize your ministry
have become the Jinyiwei,
only handling the emperor's cases.
I... I... Er...
Yingtianfu's Lord Xiao is here.
Lord Xiao.
You came here because
your men were stopped
by our men at our gate?
What?
You know about this?
Minister Qin.
This is the reason why I came today.
What's wrong with your ministry?
We sent urgent files here.
Your men
stopped us.
What is the meaning of this?
Get that goddamn Administrator
here!
Old Meng.
Do me a favor.
Please take back that
demon quickly.
What demon?
Ye Xiaotian of course.
I don't want him.
Me neither.
I don't want him either.
That demon,
he drove me crazy.
I think
there is a suitable place for him.
Where? Where?
The Ministry of Rites.
Lord Pei.
Are you joking?
The Ministry of Rites
is the strictest place in the six ministries.
If this man can't even stay in
our Ministry of Personnel,
how can he go to the Ministry of Rites?
The place I'm talkIng about,
there is almost nothing to do.
Where is it exactly? This place
opens only once in several years.
Where on earth is it?
The Interpreters Institute.* * State hostelry for foreign envoys
Good place. Good place.
Here. Here.
Let's drink.
It's only been 3 days,
you've been to the Ministry of Punishments and the Ministry of Personnel.
Now you're going to the Ministry of Rites.
You were at the Ministry of Personnel for one day,
at the penalty department for two days.
Now you've been transferred to the Ministry of Rites.
Since the beginning of our Ming dynasty,
you must be the first person who has changed
3 ministries in 3 days.
I merely want to go back to Huxian.
Why is that minister Meng
so stubborn?
Why bother keeping me in the capital?
I heard the Interpreters Institute
is an idle office.
What... What if I
can't cause any trouble there?
What do I do then?
Why so unconfident?
I believe that you'll for sure
turn that place upside down.
The Ministry of Rites is your father's territory.
This time,
it is your turn.
But he was put in the Interpreters Institute.
It's famous for being quiet and inactive.
It'll be difficult to find his faults.
You idiot.
Think of your legs.
You can't even come up with a little idea?
I know a way.
Isn't this Lord Ye?
Wait.
After your transfer you should be called
Ambassador Ye now.
You have been a Tiju for one day,
an Administrator for two days.
You change office so quickly, no one can compare to you.
I wonder how long you will stay the ambassador
at the Interpreters Institute.
Get out of our way.
Let's go.
Boy.
Don't push it.
Don't you know who the minister of rites is?
He is my father.
So now you have fallen into my hands.
I will make you pay for what you've done.
Guan gongzi, you are out of line.
Doesn't the Ministry of Rites belong to the imperial court?
Since when is it your family's?
Why are you still so arrogant
with your legs like this?
If your dad knew,
you'd lose your legs for good.
You jerk...
Ye,
you are just
a mere minor official.
I advice you to be humble.
Guojiuye.
You're right.
I am just a small official.
But I only depend on myself.
You are so much superior.
But what did you depend on? Nepotism.
Ye Xiaotian, how dare you?
What's wrong?
Are you going to deprecate the imperial court?
Are you going to beat up a court appointed official on the streets?
I would butcher you on the streets!
You and me.
A life for a life.
I can.
But can you?
My Lord.
With our status,
we shouldn't argue with this rogue.
It's not worth it.
We're leaving.
These dandies,
they've got nothing better to do?
They asked about Xiaotian ge's gossip,
and they laugh at him.
They're so lame!
Do you think me staying in the capital
is because of them?
Dage.
Impossible.
They hate you, why would they want you to stay
living in ease and comfort here?
If they keep me in their territory,
they can mess with me.
That's right.
We must be careful.
Don't let them have something on us.
This minister of rites
is Guan Xiaokun's father after all.
Dage, you almost got him into prison.
Even if he was a broadminded man,
he'd still hate you.
I fear that
if he is really going to make your life hell...
Daheng is right.
Guan Xiaokun is a rich son,
but he is very clever and shrewd.
Last time when he stole the money, if it weren't for you,
I guess no one would have solved the case.
I think we should be careful.
I will be.
But
my biggest asset
is my ability to cause trouble.
Plus, I know very clearly
how big the trouble is, and whether I can handle it or not.
Let's go.
That Ye Xiaotian.
He is sly like a snake.
It's difficult to find a way to mess with him.
Take your time.
Don't be in a hurry.
As long as he stays here
we'll find a way sooner or later.
My Lord.
Come in.
My Lord. The neighboring country's ambassador will soon arrive in the capital.
According to the emperor,
Guojiuye and the minister of rites shall welcome them.
We were just looking for an idea,
now someone offers us the perfect opportunity?
This is our chance!
[Interpreters Institute]
Dong shu.
Here.
OK.
You should eat more.
Ever since you came to the capital,
you've been catching insects outside
or you've been holed up at home.
It is difficult to see you.
Thank you, jiaozhu.
Coming. Coming.
The fish balls are here.
Listen,
you can't buy
these fish balls in the capital.
I made them myself.
And this vegetable.
It is very fresh.
Is it?
Have a taste, Xiaotian ge.
Do these fish balls taste of Huxian?
Is it cooked?
It is.
And this meat.
Here.
Here you go.
And this tofu.
Here you are.
Alright.
It's enough.
Great.
Sit down.
It's delicious.
It's great that we can get together today.
Let's make a toast.
Let's drink.
Here. Let's drink.
Dage.
This Interpreters Institute is awesome.
You have your salary
and you don't have to do anything.
You are at leisure here.
You good for nothing.
Dage.
This place is too quiet.
We can't even find something to do.
Staying here
isn't an option.
How about
we cause some trouble?
You just said,
it's hard to find something to do around here.
What trouble can we cause?
The Guojiuye is here!
Guojiuye.
You are quite at leisure here.
You eat hotpot while on duty?
No wonder
you can only be an official in charge of eating.
The old saying goes "hunger breeds discontentment".
I pursuit only this.
By the way,
what brings the Guojiuye
here today?
The shortsighted stays shortsighted.
Who is shortsighted?
You are, of course.
I don't have time to bother with you.
The ambassador of the Kezhi Country will soon arrive.
As the ambassador of the Interpreters Institute
why aren't you there to welcome them yet?
The dignity of the imperial court depends on you.
The ambassador of the Kezhi Country?
Princess. You have travelled a long distance.
It mustn't have been easy.
Please get well rested first.
I will report back to the imperial court soon and arrange your audience with the emperor.
Thank you, minister.
Have a rest, princess.
Tonight, Lord Li and I
will hold a banquet to welcome you.
Ambassador.
Yes, sir.
Treat the ambassador of Kezhi well.
Our heavenly empire values rituals and ceremonies.
Do not cause a breach of etiquette.
Yes, sir.
Princess.
Please.
I've only ever known how to bully others,
not how to serve others.
I can deal with the corrupt officials in the prison.
But welcoming a foreign princess?
I don't know how.
Princess.
This way, please.
Please board the carriage.
Goodbye.
- Good. Goodbye. - Wait, Lord Guan!
What's the matter?
You know,
the Interpreters Institute has had no business for years.
Now...
What do you mean "no business"?
We aren't doing business here.
As an official
you must think before you do or say anything.
Yes, sir. You're right.
But now
I have to welcome a foreign guest.
What's more, she is a princess.
But you also know that
we are short on staff at the Interpreters Institute.
I can't do my job like this.
How about this,
Once I'm back, I will tell the Hosting department
to send you some men.
Thank you, my Lord.
My Lord.
The Interpreters Institute doesn't have any money.
Er...
Is there anything else
other than that?
Tell me all at once.
OK.
We need money to entertain the guests.
All right.
I will give you an appropriate sum of money.
We also need a translator.
He must know the Kezhi country's language.
Er...
I can't find a Kezhi translator
as of now.
But thankfully,
the princess knows our language.
You can just
talk with the princess
about everything.
Yes, my Lord.
Good.
Goodbye.
Goodbye, my Lord.
There are no tiny issues in foreign affairs.
The princess has travelled far to come here.
She made an example for the other neighbor countries.
The imperial court must think highly of it.
If something goes wrong,
let's see what you'll do.
Princess.
I don't know whether this place
is comfortable for you?
If you have any request,
you can tell me any time.
I'm good, I'm good.
This place is very elegant.
It's very quiet.
I like this environment very much.
Thank you, Ambassador Ye
and your servants.
Thank you for this warm welcome.
I am pleased with your arrangements.
These are a few small gifts.
Just a little token of ours.
Please accept it.
How generous of you, princess.
Thank you.
Thank you, princess.
Ambassador Ye.
This is for you.
Thank you princess.
Thank you.
Dage.
What is wrong with your left hand?
That bastard Li Xuancheng
he grabbed my arm.
He must have hit an acupoint.
My arm is still numb.
Dage.
Let's cause some trouble.
Let me get this clear,
nobody may cause any trouble right now.
This concerns foreign affairs.
It concerns our empire.
We need to take care of them carefully.
We can't let our country
lose face due to us.
Let's all do a good job.
Let's go.
It looks beautiful.
Very nice.
So nice.
Guojiu.
Princess.
