Episode 20's
Previously on The Return of the Princess
They were again faced with a complicated problem in getting the painting book. It's Chancellor Luo's turn
those who follow up to explore their identity by applying a condition. What are those conditions? And are they able to handle it?
“Terms?” the three girls asked simultaneously
“You will be appointed as royal” artists
“What? Royal artist?” surprised to congregate
“True. The emperor asked me to recruit new artists and I chose Miss Yi Cao to be his candidate”
“Sorry to interrupt, Sir. What if we reject it?” yueji
“Hey, you guys really don't know thank you. Chancellor Luo is saving you from punishment and
he held a position as an artist in this kingdom. You guys rejected it?”
“Master, we came from a far country just to explore a few places and never terbesit in the slightest intention to find a position as high as it is. We are stalled here because of my terrible mistake and lack of care in maintaining emotions so as to solve the problem with violence. So. .”
“So they will gladly accept it” exclaimed Yingjun who suddenly came, everyone there immediately turned their heads towards him, including Yueji and his two brothers.
Why is he here? Yueji Ben
“That's not him. .“ Judge Guan said
“Single son of the Minister of Finance, Tao Yangli named Yingjun” said Chancellor Luo
“You know him, sir?”
“Heh, who does not know the son of the richest man in the country. Even the Emperor's wealth was below him. Isn't that right, Yingjun?”
“Thank you for the compliment, Chancellor Luo”
“Then, what's your purpose here?”
“Previous, sorry for the carelessness of my servant interrupting your conversation with these ladies. I just want to pick up guests. Coincidentally, a few days ago a servant was injured on the way to pick them up. But, after the servants recovered it turned out that they had reached the Capital City and heard that there was a slight problem befell him. So I came here to help finish it”
The incident before they arrived at the Justice Office
Yi Mei recalled her mother's message before they left the Cave
“Yi May, there's something I want to tell you”
“What is mom?”
“If you arrive in Taiyang Country, immediately pass and do not stay too long there”
“What's wrong mom?”
“Mother told you about this because you are more able to think logically than your sister, Yi Cao let alone the Princess who is 5 years younger than you”
“Yes, bu”
“You know what Mr. Princess wants to explore the outside world, right? I'll ask you and Yi Cao to come with him and keep him”
“Then, how about mom if we both go?”
“There's still a recluse's grandfather here, we'll be fine. Remember, that the existence of the princess out there is very dangerous when there are people who know about her true identity. He was too naive for people who did not know him so that it could be easily utilized. So, I asked you and
your sister to look after him”
“But. . .If we fail bu?” doubt enveloped him
“Fuck? Only if you fail, ask someone for help!”
“Who is mom?”
“Master Tao Yangli. He was the son of Hanxing's royal adviser and moved to Taiyang when married to the daughter of the Army Officer and was named Minister of Finance there. You can tell him about the princess because she is the most trustworthy person right now. You understand?”
Yi Mei immediately went to the Tao Minister's Residence and asked for his help. On his knees, he begged
by giving a scroll containing a painting of concubine Xiao Meili for Tao Yangli to believe.
“This. . . So, you're the twin daughter of Ren Xia and Swordsman Lun?”
“True, sir. Now the princess is getting into trouble with someone in the Justice” Office slowly she explains what happened to her princess. But, if I go there directly will attract their attention later.”
“Let me go, Dad!” yingjun shouted towards them
“You?” ask Yi Mei
“He is my son. What are you gonna do?”
“I have a plan, Dad! Please trust them to me!”
“How is Miss Yi May?”
“By pleasure, sir. Your help is so we need”
“Well, then! I will go to the palace to have the Emperor recruit you specifically as guests
personalu”
“Thank you, Mr. Tao. Thank you very much”
Return to Shangnan District Justice Office
“Hamba brings a special message from the Emperor to take Father's guests away to the Tao Residence now. How, Mr Chancellor?”
“It looks like they are important guests so you came alone to pick him up. But, as good as anything
they, did not the law in this land have to be enforced for a justice for its victims and now I am carrying it out”
“Law? Of justice? What law and justice are you talking about? If it was about the violence committed by this lady, wasn't she just defending herself because what belonged to her had been snatched away by someone else?” yingjun
“Whatever the reason for acting too rashly is not a good thing. Although a woman, but
he had left 7 adult men battered in his hands just because of this simple painting book, did it make sense?”
“Basikah Indigenous law in this country, women do not have the same rights as men whether it is in
punish or accept punishment. In this case (persecution of a physical event) if they are men then the punishment is whipping hands thirty times and beating feet fifty times if the victim dies. But unlike women who are fined as much as 50 taels of silver when doing so and will only receive a whip sentence of twenty times on the feet if the victim died. The victims only suffered external injuries, should the fine be enough right? Is that right Judge Guan?”
Whahuh? Fifty taels of silver? You're going to bankrupt us, sir Yueji thought aghast at Yingjun's statement
“It. .” speechless. As Judge he certainly knew about the actual rule of law, but because of his feelings and his evil plans with Chancellor Luo he forgot his obligation to uphold the law fairly.
“Mr Chancellor, you previously said that seizing a worthless object that is seized by others is absurd is not it? Then what about this prolonged case just because of that thing you consider worthless? Or maybe because it is too valuable so you want it too much?”
“KAU!! (dejected to rise from his chair) The Minister of Finance's son is exactly like his father, spicy-mouthed and good at distracting others!” reply
“What?” start to feel emotions
“Mr Yingjun, relax. They just want to turn things around and provoke your anger, remember your true purpose here. Please hold your emotions!” yueji's voice behind Yingjun tried to calm him down
“Huuh (sighs) Looks like you are also good at switching the conversation so that almost my servant made a mistake. All right, we need to solve this problem right away. How about Judge Guan? Do not just because of your personal feelings forget your duty as a high Judge in this Country. If the Emperor knows, you can be demoted from your current position and sent to the court in the east of”
“Ehem. . .Well then, based on the explanation from mister Yingjun, Miss Yueji is considered guilty and will be fined fifty taels of silver.”
“How about the book?” yueji
“The book (answered doubtfully while looking at Chancellor Luo) the book will be returned to its owner,
miss Yi Cao. Case finished here and you can come back!” her nervousness saw the annoyed expression from the Chancellor's face
“Thank you for the justice of Judge Guan. If so, we'll excuse you!” yingjun said representing the three girls and
leave the Justice Office with them.
