The Sleuth Of Ming Dynasty (The Story of Ming Dynasty / Cheng Hua Shi Si Nian / 成化十四年)

The Sleuth of the Ming Dynasty

Let's go.

Forty-eight.

Not one less.

We have to quickly transfer these Bolangs…

Stop!

Are you OK?

It's a herb called elaeagnus henryi found in Mobei

It has a nickname Immortal Wolf Herb.

It can instantly stimulate energy.

The persons will not be afraid of hurt and pains.

Even if they're fatally injured,

they will only become more and more courageous.

They are all Oirat's dare-to-die warriors.

They are all Oirat people.

The leader's name is Ashi.

What's the point of saying this now?

I know him!

Exactly!

You know all of them!

Li Zilong gathered his associates in conspiracy.

You took part in it and we caught you red handed!

While they said you're their sworn enemy,

somehow they let you go without a good reason!

You personally used the bait they gave you

to catch this big fish of the Bolangs of the Western Depot!

While we were fighting a bloody battle outside,

what were you doing?

You gave all the Bolangs to them

without even making a sound.

Tang Fan,

who are you?

That's enough!

If you are not Li Zilong's spy,

then you are the biggest idiot in the world!

You and I know better than anyone

who he is.

The most important thing in front of us

is to find the Bolangs back soon.

Otherwise…

Your team searches northward,

and mine will go south.

Let's get to work.

Xue Ling.

This is a matter of great weight.

Summon everyone you can

to start a grid search now.

Yes, sir!

Forty-seven,

forty-eight.

Gentle, be gentle.

Slower.

Put them down lightly. Be careful.

Let's send them out of the city from the Desheng Gate.

I like its name which means victory.

Let's go.

Aren't we going to use them soon?

Why are you still shipping them out?

It was all you guys' fault.

You guys made such a big movement.

Both the Western Depot and the Imperial Guards must be very anxious.

I guess

they are probably looking for them in the city now.

The best way

is to go to an unexpected place.

Now they all think

we are going to go into action in the capital.

So we are going to…

But they wouldn't expect

we have transported the Bolangs out of the city.

Take my words

for it.

Hey.

Excuse me for a minute.

I need to move my pawn.

Qingge.

Do you know what kind of disaster you made this time?

Is Mr. Tang coming?

Mr. Tang.

My dear Mr. Tang.

I really want to thank you this time.

Come on. Take a seat.

I've been waiting for you for a long time.

Here, have a drink.

Or

do you want to talk about it?

How did it go?

Did they scold you?

Drink some wine to cool down.

Today is our celebration feast.

I just want to confirm one thing.

That's right.

Originally

I only had one Bolang.

It was a pity to use it,

but also a pity to just keep it.

I couldn't let that Bolang waste in vain.

Mr. Tang.

So I took advantage of you,

who is so eloquent and persuasive,

to persuade them for me

so that I could get the big fish I wanted.

And voila, one Bolang became 48

plus a good opportunity to change the regime.

I didn't expect

I bet on the right horse

by betting on you.

You are sinister,

and shameless!

Curse me whatever you want.

I'm incredibly happy today.

Since I'm happy,

the deal we had earlier about

sacrificing one for one million is still valid.

Come on, Mr. Tang.

When are you ready to trade?

You are sinister,

and shameless!

He is a scholar,

yet he has such a poor vocabulary.

Does it make sense to curse me now?

Just say it.

Deal or not deal?

Tang Fan.

Choose wisely.

You have already lost the Bolangs.

If you also get millions of people killed,

how will the history books describe you in the future?

I am not in a hurry.

Think about it.

Let's set off.

Search the place!

Let's go!

Search!

Tang, come and have breakfast.

We've been waiting for you for a long time.

Did Zhou make it?

Sui only came back this morning

and immediately went to the kitchen to cook for you.

Did you find the Bolangs?

Let's have breakfast first.

I really made a huge trouble this time.

You are lucky enough to be back alive.

No matter what happens next,

we'll cross the bridge

when we come to it.

Yes, Tang.

The most important thing is to stay alive.

Moreover,

we have been through so many troubles before.

What are you afraid of this time?

Eat your food

or it will get cold.

Dong is right.

Eat it.

We have to go to the Western Depot to discuss it in a while.

Commander.

What are you going to do?

I thought about it.

Li Zilong was just bluffing

when he said sacrificing one's life for a million

so that he could use me as part of his scheme.

Because he knew that I care about the people.

In fact, this so-called deal never exists at all

nor is it logically possible.

Even if we don't hand over His Majesty to him,

what can he get by bombing the whole capital?

As the saying goes,

-use the best steel to make the knife's edge -Just get to the point!

Tomorrow is the Beginning of Spring ceremony.

All the officials will feast at the Meridian Gate with His Majesty.

Li Zilong will definitely use Bolangs to make an attack.

If he succeeds,

the political impact on the Ming will far exceed the Tumu Crisis.

There is no trace of Bolangs in the whole capital.

Can Li Zilong just appear out of thin air?

If you can't find them,

I suggest

we cancel tomorrow's ceremony.

I know His Majesty's character best.

The ceremony cannot be cancelled.

The only thing we can do now

is to find the Bolangs before tomorrow.

I have to see General Gao.

Gao Yi is now a felon of the royal court level!

You can't see him at will.

There is a saying that if you walk around the river, you will get your shoes wet one day.

You just went into the river to swim a few rounds.

After you got yourself all soaked,

now you say you don't know how to swim!

I almost feel sorry for you!

You want to see Gao Yi?

OK.

How about I put you to jail today

so that you can keep him company?

That's enough.

Tang Fan is the last person in the world

who would want this to happen.

What do you think of me is

what you should think of General Gao.
