DIALOGUE CLIPS (2563)
These brutes have truly run wild.
Mr. Xie, you're actually praising them? They have kidnapped Zheng Xia. But what good does that do?
It has caused panic. What if they decide to storm the Xie Residence tomorrow?
The more chaotic the situation, the better it is for us.
Mr. Deng, on the other hand, should be getting a headache.
for you are trampling upon the laws of the court…
and allowing the Imperial Guard Office to run wild.
You say I disregard the law?
It was you who countenanced such brutal torment.
and whether I have the authority to intervene in state affairs.
I will see this case through to the end,
and I will uncover every hidden truth.
the integrity of the court falls within my authority.
and set things right.
Let Mu Xiaoman enter.
Exposed for trading examination papers, he tried to shift the blame onto Zheng Xia.
but he also bribed the Chancellor of the Directorate of Education to cover his tracks.
The culprits have been brought to the Capital to await sentencing.
We shall discuss this matter later.
He is siding with Her Highness.
spare no one, and punish all involved with the utmost severity.
Your Highness, this was a masterful move.
You are mistaken. It was not my strategy that was masterful.
It was Chi Yu and the others who forced their own destruction.
