When Empress Dowager
:01:07
was the power behind the throne,
:01:10
eunuchs and treacherous court
officials ran wild.
:01:12
The fragile Qing dynasty
:01:14
after Tongzi Restoration
:01:17
declined due to domestic troubles
:01:19
and foreign invasion.
:01:21
The remnant
:01:23
Taiping rebels
:01:25
gathered
:01:27
in remote islands near Lake Tai
:01:29
and waited to come back.
:01:32
In Tianjin,
:01:34
Jinghai Security Services of Nian rebels
:01:36
received a secret letter by Hong Yuejiao,
:01:38
the niece of former Taiping leader.
:01:39
They were asked to
:01:41
openly send Nian's 00,000 taels of silver
:01:43
to the South
:01:45
under name of Huzhou Private Bank.
:01:47
Hurry up.
:01:50
But the secret leaked.
:02:01
The escort haven't come.
:02:02
The intelligence's true?
:02:08
Take a rest, father. We're bushed.
:02:10
No, can't waste a New York minute.
:02:12
Here're bandits.
:02:25
Don't panic!
:02:30
Keep the silver taels safe!
