Episode 12
On his way to bring injured HELIN back to the capital, FUCHANG’AN notices that he is heavily encircled by a large group of people. He later reports to JIAQING, claiming that a group of masked men in black took HELIN away. FUCHANG’AN bribes a eunuch so that he can check the accessories used by JIAQING, in hopes of finding a new clue in the murder of his elder brother. With LIU QUAN’s help, HESHEN arranges for DORJI to meet DIEYI at a restaurant. At the court hall, LIU YONG submits a memorial to the throne, seeking to hold HELIN accountable for the embankment burst that discharged a flood resulting in civilian casualties. However, HESHEN carries out the plaque “Sage Emperor Just Minister” that was bestowed on him by the late Emperor QIANLONG to secure HELIN. Surprisingly, JIAQING agrees to apologize to HELIN in person if it’s proven that HELIN is innocent, causing quite a stir among the court officials.
