【BM SUB】The Ingenious One EP26 | Chen Xiao, Rachel Momo | iQIYI Malaysia
[English subtitles are available] [The Ingenious One] [Episode 26: Love and Farewell] I… I-I just left for a few days. How did you offend Liu Gongquan? I didn’t expect you’d heard of him. You don’t say. Everyone in the martial world knows him. Rest easy. I didn’t provoke him.
I just made a deal with him. Let me make it clear. I won’t go against the government. I understand. Just take good care of your Jishan Hall. Really? Then I won’t care about anything else. I prepared a little something for you. It’s now in your room. Why don’t you take a look?
How’s it going? Have you got things squared away in Jishan Hall? I’m not in the mood to talk about this. Did Liu Gongquan come here to see you? What was he up to? Did he give you a hard time? Let’s talk inside. Liu Gongquan knew I was from Yuntai.
The Best Detective in Jiangnan is indeed capable. But he was so eager to investigate the case that he played right into my hands. Don’t worry. I’ve solved the crisis. You haven’t. Once you help him locate the soldiers’ whereabouts, he can give the order to arrest you anytime. It’s all right. I know
Something he wants to know. Forget it. I don’t want you and Ten Taels of Gold to get involved. I’d better cut it out now. You’re taking a risk to avenge the murder of your family, right? But have you ever thought that if you had really gone against Lingyuan that day,
Even if you found the person you’d been looking for and got the answer you’d been searching for, in the future, you would have opposed the entire Lingyuan Sect? So what? Yun Xiang. You taught me before to protect ourselves before taking revenge. If you take the risk recklessly,
You may lose the chance to revenge forever. I know. I’m well prepared. Have you really made up your mind? You’re not the kind of person who rushes headlong into danger. When did you turn back into a secretive person as you used to be, always hiding something?
I don’t know which of your words is true and which is not. I don’t know what you’re planning either. I’ve always treated you with a sincere heart. Don’t worry. I won’t be threatened by Liu Gongquan. Only when I know the whole story can I be reassured. As a matter of fact,
I heard that in Nandu City, there was another force of Lingyuan. When the time is ripe, I will hand them over to Liu Gongquan personally. Another force of Lingyuan? What do you think Lingyuan is? Mr. Mo has found out where the ringleader of Lingyuan is hiding.
He can round them up in one fell swoop. I capitalized on that to ally with Liu Gongquan. Do you feel more relieved after knowing these? Have you forgotten what you said when you lied prone in my back? I said I wouldn’t leave and I’d stay by your side forever.
You said those were drunk words. Then I said I would always keep my promises. I lied to you and said I didn’t remember because… I understand. That was the only lie that I was not afraid of being seen through by you. That was also the only time
I was willing to be deceived by you. I’m sorry. You don’t have to. Yun Xiang. Where did she go last night? She boarded a pleasure boat, but even the songstress was sent away. She drank alone until midnight at 1 am. Who did she meet with? She didn’t talk to anyone.
No markings were left along the way either. I looked into the owner of the pleasure boat. He had nothing suspicious. Yun Xiang, what do you think? You must have figured it out already. It’s more suspicious for not having any doubtful points. Maybe she was checking if she was being watched.
Was the shadowman discovered? Not a chance. Once she confirms she is safe, she will make her next move. Keep an eye on her. Got it. Tell me. Why did the young master do such a ridiculous thing? I dare not speculate on his mind. You dare not say it, right?
I’ll say it for you. The young master seems to be dealing with the Lingyuan Sect’s Nandu Branch, but he actually wants to deal with me. Am I right? But it’s a pity that Mr. Ye died for me. Mr. Ye was rounded up by soldiers and committed suicide by taking poison. That’s impossible.
Mind your manners. I received the secret letter just now. What? Do you want to have a look? [Mr. Ye was rounded up by soldiers and committed suicide by taking poison] Mr. Nangong, since the Kou family wants to deal with you, why don’t you rebel against them first? Don’t mention such unfaithful words anymore
In the future. You must remember that Mr. Ye and all the heads of bases in Jiangnan, including me, owe our today’s success to Old Master Kou. Does that mean we should do nothing about the death of Mr. Ye? Old Master Kou is wise and mighty.
Since someone has a grievance, he will surely redress for them. Yuan Ye, do you really want to avenge Mr. Ye? Take my token to meet with Madam Kou and report this to her. Remember, do take care of the sect’s reputation. Don’t mention it to others. I suppose Yuan Ye
Is going to sign his own death warrant. Why did you give him the token then? Aren’t you afraid of being implicated by him? Stupid. Since I had given him the token, it implied that I was privy to the matter. I was privy to it, but I didn’t meddle in it.
That means I’ve put up with it. By doing so, the master will trust me more. Ye Xiao is somehow your right-hand man. It’s a pity for him to die in that way. And now, our businesses in Nandu are almost all ruined. Maybe Yun Xiang has figured out your plan.
It’s not a big deal. I want him to win every battle so that I can trap him easily. Mr. Yun, here we meet again. Don’t look at my uncle. I came to Nandu to learn how to solve cases from him. Greetings, Your Highness. Greetings, Lord Liu. This is Qi.
He has been patrolling the river for over 30 years. He was also involved in the investigation of the Grand Coordinator’s case. According to him, no tracks of carriages and horses were on the shores of the Cao River, but there were traces of someone walking ashore. Lord Liu, you didn’t bring any guards?
With the crowd present, how can the culprit show the cloven hoof? Let’s go. We shall talk on the way. It’s a bit odd. You said that the soldiers on the towboat robbed the tributary cloth. What evidence do you have to prove it? Your Highness, you can think about it.
If you were one of the soldiers and committed a crime that could result in your beheading, what would you do next? I’ll die anyway. Of course, I’ll run away. You’ll need money to run away. And the tributary cloth was the only valuable thing on the boat. That’s why we found neither the goods
Nor the people on the boat. That makes sense. But I think there is something wrong. The tributary cloth has the design of the dragon and phoenix on it. No one would dare to accept it. How could they trade it for money? It’s not impossible to sell the cloth.
Do you even have such connections? Of course. Think carefully before you answer. Since you have such connections, you must have been involved in many killings. Since I’ve decided to cooperate with Lord Liu, I shall go all out and tell you everything I know. Sir, we found it. Sir.
We found more than ten traces of walking ashore along the river. This spot stands out the most. It should be here. But how did they know? At least dozens of people are needed to open up the path. Look. There is burnt yellow at the cut of the grass leaf.
It should have been broken for days. At least four or five days. It matches the day of the incident. We looked into the trace before. There is a stream over 300 meters ahead. No more traces are to be found after that. They must have used the stream to cover their footprints.
But the footprints are so obvious. Why didn’t you investigate them before? Your Highness, Magistrate Shao is looking for the whereabouts of the tributary silver. There is no way for them to transport the 100,000 taels of tributary silver on foot. So there is no need to investigate this spot in particular. Here, smell it.
It should be a greaseproof paper used to wrap the tributary cloth. But silk has no smell. Silk hasn’t, but the dye has. This is the smell of purple gromwell and alum. You can tell that by smelling? I don’t even know what they smell. Not only talent is needed to solve cases,
But also accumulated experience. Keep everything you see and hear in mind. That’s so troublesome. What? Are you giving up? Of course not. I will achieve what I want to do. Your Highness is gifted. You’ve also gained a lot recently. Lord Liu, shall we go back? Mr. Yun, today… Open up!
I’ve lost for three days in a row. Did you cheat in the games? Exactly. It indeed makes sense. One more round. I think so too. Come with me. Manager. Mr. Deng has lost for three days. How about we rebate him 20% of the profit to keep him stay?
If we give him rebates, what will other customers think? Inform Head Dealer Wang to take care of him today and let him win more. Play some tricks? What else? Yes, miss. Miss Shu. Young Master. Ye Xiao is now dead. Now we have got rid of Nangong Fang’s right-hand man.
Why don’t we quit while we’re ahead? Quit? Isn’t this a chance to show my capabilities? When the time is ripe, I’ll kill Liu Gongquan first and Yun Xiang next. With the merit, who else in the sect can compete with me? Why didn’t you use the secret code this time?
Check on the surrounding to see if there is anything unusual. Do be cautious. What happened? Leave Nandu immediately and never come back. What do you mean? I told you long ago. Why didn’t you listen to me? Yun Xiang and Liu Gongquan are now targeting you. Is Yun Xiang a deity?
How could he foretell everything? It turns out you tried so hard to drive me away. I’ll leave, but you have to come with me. Mother also gave me an important task to take you back. The situation is still unclear. I can’t leave. Yun Xiang is really cunning.
He must have set you up long ago. When will you leave if not now? Don’t tell me he took your heart away. How about I help you get it back? Don’t you dare lay a finger on him. You assaulted your birth brother for your lover.
You’ve been good at martial arts since you were young. Even I am no match for you. Shame on you. I wonder how good Yun Xiang is at martial arts. I don’t believe you can protect him 24 hours a day. I’m warning you again. Don’t hurt him, even a little.
Fine, I can leave him alone. But it depends on you. If you follow me back, I may send someone to keep him safe and sound. But if someone stops me from taking you back, I must kill him. Tomorrow at 9 a.m., we shall meet at Guichuankou Pier. Shu Yanan has already left.
Do we still need to follow her? Was the woman the one who caused the deaths of our fellows? Yes. I’ll kill her. There’s no rush. I’ll go after Shu Yanan. You must surround the house. Understood. Don’t let go of anyone inside. Also, inform our fellows
Not to tell anyone that Shu Yanan came here. How many years have you been in the Yuntai Sect? The longer a disciple stays in Yuntai, the higher his status is. My Lord. Please allow me to keep some information for now. Look. He is indeed cunning. Do keep your distance from him.
But in terms of cunning, you are not inferior too. When we arrive at the city gate, I shall get off there. I’ll report to you as soon as I hear anything. Actually, I’m very curious about who dares to sell tributary cloth without permission. How about you take me with you?
My Lord, you must have been occupied today. Rest easy and leave it to me. If so, take me there. I’m available. I’m just kidding. I know you won’t allow me to go. Mr. Yun, we have three deals. I am confident that you can achieve the first deal.
Now we can talk about the second one. All this time, Lingyuan has hated Yuntai’s tricks the most. But now, in Nandu City, they started to imitate Yuntai and intervene in business. Their cahoots with Tang Xiao are the best proof of this. This is very different from the previous Lingyuan. Not only Nandu,
I’ve handled several major cases. Merchants are colluding with Lingyuan everywhere. What? Lingyuan had such an act, but Yuntai didn’t know about it? What’s weird is they started to steal the treasury and rob the official silver. And they targeted the official silver twice. Don’t they fear their flagrant doings
Will ruin their business foundation in Nandu City? They only robbed 100,000 taels of official silver. If the foundation is ruined, the loss is far more than that. It does not make sense. So I suspect two Lingyuan forces are in the city at the moment.
One goes into business and the other values martial arts. The disagreement between the two led us to the current situation. If what you said is true, can you locate the other Lingyuan force hidden in Nandu? Of course. Uncle, it’s a good deal.
Whether it’s a good deal or not depends on what he wants. I hope Lord Liu can open up the Tang’s Gambling House. So that I can buy it. That’s all? I think there’s something wrong here. You’ve indeed improved a lot in your vigilance. Mr. Yun, Yuntai has always had a grudge against Lingyuan,
But you rarely fight each other. Now you turned the Lingyuan Sect’s Nandu Branch upside down to get only a property? This is just my second deal with you. Once you know the third one, you will figure out what I want. Didn’t we agree that I won’t be involved?
Why are you asking me for help now? Do you think everyone in the grey market wants money more than their lives? How dare they accept the tribute cloth? Leave the deal with Liu Gongquan to me. Now you just have to gather the information. Tell me first.
What are you up to with Kang Qiao? He transferred all the shadowmen away and often didn’t come home. I asked him to help me look into another clue. Don’t worry. It’s not risky. What’s the clue I can’t know? I didn’t mean to hide it.
All I can say is that if things go well, I’ll take over the entire Tang family’s business. But can money solve the problem we’re facing now? So the news in the grey market is very crucial now. If we find the tributary cloth, we can locate the fleeing soldiers.
The deal between Liu Gongquan and me can then continue. I’m counting on you. Please. How was it? Who did she visit? Someone from the Lingyuan Sect. Are you sure? I fought that woman from Lingyuan before. I couldn’t be mistaken. I will keep the secret about Shu Yanan from the sect.
But I’m afraid you can’t hide it from Mr. Mo for long. I understand. Thank you. Yun Xiang, Mr. Mo and I are not sticklers for stereotypes. We won’t blame you for that. Shu Yanan really hid it too well. She accompanied you all the way.
It’s reasonable for you to break the rules and fall for her. Don’t blame yourself. She didn’t hide it well, but I… It doesn’t matter anymore. No matter what she’s up to, you’re still more intelligent than her. You used her to locate their hideout. Either way, she won’t bother you anymore.
What do you mean? She must have been wary of you. After tipping those people off, she went disappeared.
