Nirvana in Fire: The Wind Blows in Chang Lin (Nirvana in Fire 2 / 琅琊榜之风起长林)

Yuan Shi, how do you feel today?

I'm a bit hungry.

Quickly, summon in the meal!

Yes.

It's because Guru Puyang performed the ritual to calm his nerves

that the crown prince has gotten better so quickly.

Crown Prince is unwell.

It is an illness formed from the malicious aura and the current flu.

The imperial physicians treat the illness while I disperse evil spirits.

We worked together to have this effect.

Guru, you have always been very humble.

You never take credit for yourself.

I'm too flattered.

Prince of Changlin is already heading back to the capital.

Whatever happens in this case...

Whoever takes charge of this investigation

neither you nor the Ministry of War should meddle in it.

We can only hope

that the men we sent out can clean up the mess at Datong Prefecture.

As for the rest, it's meaningless to brood over it.

Master Xun. Master Song.

Master Song's face has dimmed.

There's a sign of decline in your fortune.

The malicious aura is coming from the north.

How has your family been?

What did you say?

It's normal for a person's fortune to have its ups and downs.

Master Song, fret not.

I'll take my leave.

That Puyang Ying...

Although he is respected as the Guru

he is no more than some occultist of the White Cult!

How dare he behave so arrogantly?

All right now.

Although unlike Southern Chu State

we don't completely believe in the White Cult

we have not banned it either.

Since Empress Xun invited him into the palace

His Majesty's asthma and Crown Prince's health have improved.

We can't say that he doesn't deserve any credit for it.

Mister Qin, the envoys have already set out from the capital.

You made this trip personally.

Isn't it somehow inappropriate?

Master Song was your mentor.

This is a known relationship.

Why pretend otherwise?

At the moment, the shipwreck

must be disguised as an accident.

No one must find any solid evidence.

Be honest with me.

Is everything all cleaned up?

Speak!

There was a small passenger ship right behind the ships.

There were a few doctors from Jifeng Hall.

They saved quite a few men from the water.

I know that since the matter got out of hand

we can't allow that many to live.

I immediately sent my men to clean up the mess.

However...

However?

Although we managed to sink that passenger ship

three of the doctors still managed to rescue one of the ship's captains.

They got away.

They got away?

Have you not found them yet?

We are already searching within the prefecture.

I have also have my men monitoring the clinics in Jifeng Hall in town.

Once they make a move, I'll be alerted.

Monitor them?

Since you know that Jifeng Hall's doctors saved him

why didn't you barge in to search the premises?

Jifeng Hall is a renown medical family.

They are known for saving lives and curing illnesses.

What we are doing now can't be made known to anyone.

How could I justify the search?

We can't be bothered with that now.

Whatever excuses you can make up, search their clinics now.

What are you here for?

Open it up to take a look.

Sir.

Your Grace, are you really going to meddle in this business?

If what they said is true

then this is no trifling matter.

As a member of the Imperial Clan

how can I stand by doing nothing now that I happen to be here?

Your Grace!

Greetings, Your Grace.

Commander Qian, you've worked hard.

You are--

I'm searching for wanted criminals.

Is there a wanted list posted?

These are just some habitual offenders.

Oh... habitual offenders?

I'll leave you to your work.

Your Grace.

Your Grace.

The local officers are patrolling.

They claim to be searching for criminals.

They have the entire city surrounded.

Your Grace, you surely understand that the hunt for criminals is an excuse.

They are in fact coming after us.

They killed at night to silence the witnesses.

I didn't believe in such matters.

Yet now...

The three of us are but ordinary doctors.

We thought that we happened to witness a shipwreck.

Hence, we did our best to save a few people from the canal.

If we weren't being hunted along the way

who would have known that behind this accident, is--

Is he the only one left of those you managed to rescue?

Yes, indeed.

If Your Grace hadn't run into us and offered to lend a hand

we might not have managed to get here.

- Exactly. - Don't you worry.

I do at least have quite a status.

I happened to be traveling and arrived here.

I am a total outsider.

No one has noticed this residence yet.

It will be all right.

Thank you, Your Grace.

Your Grace, you can't keep hiding them in here.

This gentleman is right.

How could we allow such a crime to be covered up?

We have to try and escape from here to report this case.

I might be an idle nobility in the capital

but even I would know that such a case involves a great many.

Even if you make it out of Datong Prefecture with some luck

to whom will you report this case to ensure that it isn't covered up?

The provincial governor? The Governor-General?

Or the capital?

Ladies, take care.

Thank you.

Sir, what do you think of this jug?

Stop right there!

We're arresting criminals! You are all to stay put!

Search the front and back. Detain everyone you see!

Yes!

Stand on the side and don't move!

Stand back! Move back!

Come.

Miss Lin, I admit that I offended you.

But I've already apologized for it.

You don't have to follow me around.

Since I left Gan Province

you've been right on my heels.

You're not going to tell me that that's a coincidence?

Are you going to follow me all the way to Datong Prefecture?

That night of the shipwreck in Datong Prefecture

besides the three supply ships that sank

a small passenger ship was also knocked over.

There were five doctors from Jifeng Hall.

Two are dead and three missing.

You have your reason for going to Datong Prefecture.

So does Jifeng Hall.

I'm sorry.

I... I really didn't know about that.

Miss Lin, I was just making a joke.

I don't really think that you're following me around.

Good morning.

Shall we?

We have to hurry.

Didn't you say that we're going to where the ships sank?

Why bother coming into the city with me?

I did plan to look for evidence at the spot where the ships sank

but there's no rush.

I'll feel more at ease to see you back in Jifeng Hall.

Come have a look! It's all fresh!

Jifeng Hall is just ahead.

Young man, I heard that the doctors here are really good.

I came to see one in particular.

Why is it closed?

You're down on your luck.

You came a day too late.

A murderer escaped yesterday.

He happened to escape into that clinic.

The local officers barged in to arrest him.

They had a fight in there and everything was broken.

Give it some time.

They need to tidy it up. It will take days before they can reopen.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

There are officers checking identities at the city gates.

Jifeng Hall is in trouble.

It seems that we are both right to have made a trip here.

Let's go.

Miss Lin.

Yun.

Miss Lin, you've finally arrived.

There are people living here?

I know that.

Your Grace, you saw it for yourself.

The local officers have searched all the inns and restaurants.

They will eventually find their way into this residence.

It really isn't ideal to keep them hiding in here.

Even if this shipwreck really was an accident

the capital will send someone here to confirm it.

Not to mention that there are so many suspicious factors in this case.

It's only a matter of time before someone is sent here.

Don't fret. We'll wait for a while.

Your Grace.

The capital is very far away from here.
