Episode 26

Joyoung!

The captured assassins
finnally confessed.

They're getting ready
to arrest Bu Kiwon.

We must get back now.

We're going back to the city!
Let's move!

Yes, sir!

Why do you hesitate when you know

who is behind
the attempt on your life?

Bu Kiwon and Namgeon
must be brought in at once.

Settle down!

I intend to use this opportunity
to turn things around.

I don't understand, sir.

Turn things around?

They were trying to seize
control of this state

when they tried to kill me.

If that isn't treason what is?

I will make all of
the civil officials

including Namgeon submit to me.

All of the civil offisials
of the royal court?

That's right!

Generals Ji Myongcheon
and Gom Mujam,

proceed with your men to Dongchon

where th e civil officials reside.

Raid Gae Jin and Sun Keom's estates

and put them under arrest.

Yes, sir.

General On Samun and Yi Kiwu,

I want you to suppress Sa Bugu
and the City Defense Guards.

Yes, sir.

I will handle Bu Kiwon myself.

I want the lords of
the Five Puyo Clans

under my control by dawn.

As you wish, sir!

Bring Namgeon and Hogh
Commissioner Bu Kiwon before me.

Yes, sir! Come!

Minister Yeon Namseng wants
you outside, High Commissioner.

I suggest you comply before
we have to drag you out.

Take him!

Move it!

Where are you hiding Namgeon?

I don't know
what you're taking about.

No?

You coaxed him to have me killed
and you don't know?

I just found out myself that
he tried to have you killed.

Silence!

This is a crime
that could've shaken

the very foundation
of this country.

I will investigate
this to the fullest

and punish everyone involved.

If you must insist,

punish me and get it over with.

I can't let the other officials
suffer on account of me.

Slay me and

stop this tyranny against
the Five Puyo Clans!

No, sir!

Let me go!
No, sir!

No, sir! No, sir!

Bu Kiwon is not at fault alone!

All of us were deceived by Namgeon!

If you want blood, slay us all!

We can't let Bu Kiwon
take the blame alone!

Forgive us!

Stop!

That's enough!

I was prepared to kill all of you

when I came here.

But I just remembered
my father's last words.

Unity is what kept Goguryeo
from crumbling

against foreign powers.

He said internal division
is a sure path to ruin.

I have decided to grant you mercy

because the time calls for unity.

But know this.

You live not because of me

but because of my father,

Yeon Gaesomun,
the man you abhorred.

Excellency!

Please forgive us, Your Excellency!

Forgive us, Your Excellency!

Master Gom,
This is a ridiculous situation.

are vowing loyalty to Namseng.

But they are the ones

who just tried to have
Namseng killed!

It looks Namseng
has a different idea.

He wants to use this opportunity
to make peace with them.

I don't trust them.

They have lowered themselves

even to His Excellency Yeon Gaesomun.
Master Gom!

I thought we were going
to kill them all.

What's going on?

Do you have any idea?

I'm going back in.
But sir, wait...

Hey chum,

don't you think those old fogies
are acting strange?

Keep the area tightly guarded.

Wait!

Hey, Gulsabiwu,
you know what I think?

Hey!

Bastards...

Do I smell bad?

They hurt my feelings.

Thank you for your words of wisdom.

We, too, were greatly moved
by your sagacity and insight.

How long has it been since
the last time the civil and

military officials got together
and shared out thoughts?

This old man is
overwhelmed with joy!

It's all thanks to Minister Namseng

for redressing your grievances.

That's right.

The warriors are deeply moved by

Minister Namseng's
magnanimity as well.

The civil officials musn't forget
what he has done for you today.

I assure you we will not.

Hencheforth,
the lords of the Five Puyo Clans

will be loyal to Minister Namseng.

This country will prosper
and strengthen

only if we work together.

Give me your support.

I, Yeon Namseng,
will destroy Tang China

and fulfill my father's dream.

High Commissioner,

Did everyone leave?
Yes, sir.

Go to Namgeon at once
and explain the situation.

Yes, sir.

The real fight starts now.

Yes. You'll see.

I will supress Namseng and

put Namgeon on the seat
of the Supreme Commander.

Of course you will.

Namgeon is better man
than Namseng

for this country's peace.

Don't try to get up.

The head monk said you won't be
able to move around for a few days.

What an awful accident
at a funeral of all places!

Rest here in comfort
until you are well.

Wait, Captain Dae,

What can I do for you, Your Grace?

I've been feeling quite frightened
about spending the night tonight

with all the violence
this afternoon.

I was just praying to Buddha

to send me protector
for the night...

... and here you are.

If you'd... just until sunrise...

Of course, Your Grace.

Of course, Your Grace.

Kisil, taka care of this woman

until I complete my prayers.

Yes, Your Grace.

Who are you to be so kind
to a compete stranger?

She is a princess of Goguryeo.

Princess of Goguryeo?

I am here offering
a hundred day prayer.

Let us keep each other
company like friends.

What did you find out?

The security is very tight.

I couldn't set foot into the city.
Chulin,

did you look for Chulin?

Ilooked briefly, but...

Briefly?

Think about this for a second.

I'm sure she ran if she survived,

and what's the use of searching
if she's dead?

Bastard!

That's it!

I'm sick of being knocked
around by you!

All right, all right.

I'm putting my sword down,
so put yours down too.

Do you want him dead, sir?

Not you too!

Put the sword down.

I can't believe you just did that!

I ought to beat
the lights out of you!

Shut your trap!

If anything's happened
to Lady Chulin,

I will kill you.

You darn Khitans!

Is Minister Namgeon inside?

Go on in.

Keep your eyes peeled.
Yes, sir!

I need to go back into the city.

You've been told to stay put
until there is an order.

I don't have time for this.

My colleague is missing.

Who do you think is responsible
for this mess we're in?

It's all because you failed
to do your job!

We barely figured out
a way to survive

and you want to ruin that as wel?

Keep your head down and lie low.

You will be able to return
to the city soon.

Do you understand?

Sa Bugu, sir!
Enter.

What?

My brother placed the civil
officials under arrest?

Yes. sir.

The whole city has been
turned upside down.

How could he? How could he!

The civil officials were forced
to pledge loyalty to him.

But they fear
he would usurp the throne

if he is allowed!

How could he?

What has become of my brother?

Now you must come to the fore.

It is what the country demands!

I can forgive my brother
for trying to take my life.

But if he tries
to destroy the country

blinded by greed for power,

and if I am the only one
who can stop him,

I will gladly come
forward and fight.

Sir!

Deliver this message
to the officials in Pyongyang.

From this moment forward,

I am the supreme
commander of this state!

Yes, supreme commander!

Namgeon and Namseng drew
their swords on each other?

Yes, sir.

That report from
General Gom Mojam.

Those juneviles are
out of their minds!

They will ruin this country!

Please calm down, sir.
How can I be calm?

This is not just a sibling rivalry!

The division between the brothers

will devide this country!

It appears there's already
been a wave of violence.

A wave of violence?

Namseng, moved his troops
and forced the civil officials

of Pyongyang under his command.

What?

You mean he used the force of arms
and placed the civil officials

under his command in a city
where the King resides?

I'm afraid so, sir.

After all that his father said!

I'm impressed in a way.

Even His Excellency Yeon Gaesomun

could not touch the civil officials

but Namseng got them
to pledge loyalty to him.

That's not what's happening.

Namseng is making big mistake!

A mistake, sir?

Sir,

what do you mean by that?

Did you wish to see us?

I need the two of you
to go to Pyongyang.

On what matter, sir?

I'm disturbed about
Namseng's actions.

He cannot stand by idly.

The situation in Pyongyang is
under control now, sir.

Bu Kiwon is not
a submissive character.

He may have kmeeled
before Namseng now,

but he will use Namgeon
to make trouble again

unless the two brothers reconcile.

Moreover, we are in
a political crisis

And we have not be able to detect
any distinct movement from Tang.

This means they are keeping
a close eye on us.

This is no time for
Yeon Gaesomun's sons

to be at each other's throats.

What would you like us to do, sir?

Go to Pyongyang

and deliver my message to Namseng.

If my warning does
not change his attitude,

I'll go to Pyongyang myself.

We must stop their fight
at any cost.

What? Xue Rengui?

General Xue is here?
Yes, Khan.

I'm certain it's Xue Rengui,

but his appearance is...

What about his appearance?

I don't know what
they did to him in Tang,

but he's a filthy vagrant
if I have ever seen one.

A vagrant?
Yes, Khan.

He asked for food.

So I took him to the guest tent.

Great warrior Xue Rengui
looking like a vagrant?

Hey, hey, hey!

Stop eating and pour me a drink!

Yes, general.
Kid... That's enough.

Ah, that's good!

By the way, Hongpei,

their steamed buns are
delicious too, aren't they?

... Khan!

I, uh, didn't eat too well
on the road coming here.

If you haven't eaten,
perhaps you can join us, Khan.

Move out of the way, kid!

Khan, please sit down.

I'm too ashamed to hold
my head up, Khan.

I'm sure you know already,

but I'm no longer a general.
I'm no body.

To be honest,

it will hurt you more than
help you to have me here.

I understand.

Thank you for the wonderful meal.

It's more than I deserve.

Let me just finish
these steamed buns

and I'll be on my way.

Hongpei, let's eat.

You should never leave food
on your plate.

Yes, general...

Why didn't you tell them?

You wouldn't have been
sujected to this humiliation

if you had sold us out.

But instead you
took the fall alone.

Why didn't you tell them

the Khitan tribe is responsible
for the defeat?

Tang might be my ancestral land,

but Khitans are my family.

How could I betray my own family

no matter how desperate I am?

General...

My country has abandoned me,

but my family gives me
warm food and wine.

What more could I ask for?

I don't want to cause you any harm.

Hongpei, let us go now.
Don't!

Goguryeo is yet to be destroyed.

our dream of owning Yingzhou
territory is still alove

and our pledge to serve you
still stands.

Lead this Khitan tribe
in a fight against Goguryeo.

We will be with you
to the end, general!

Accept us, general!

I thought I was
an unluckiest man alive,

but I guess I'm lucky after
all to have such loyal friends.

By the way, have you heard
anything from Li Kaigu?

You're going into Pyongyang Fort?

Lower your voice.

It's dangerous to go back
there right now.

If Chulin is alive,

she has to be being detained
inside the city.

Then I'll come with you.

I'll be safer alone.

Stay with here Jitou
But sir,

Without Chulin, I don't exist.

If she is alive,
I will bring her back,

and if she's dead...

Commander...

I will kill everyone
who caused Chulin's death.

Dae Joyoung, Bu Kiwon,

all of them.

What?

Dae Jungsang is in Pyongyang?

He went dtright to the Supreme
Commander's estate after arrival.

I'm sure General ang Manchun knows

about Yeon Gaesomun's death by now.

Then is he here to see Namseng?

Yang Manchun must've been informed

about the situation here
in Pyongyang.

He will try to intervene
one way or another.

Yes. .

it's not necessarily
a bad thing for us.

What do you mean?

Namseng can't stand General
Yang Manchun's interference.

This might worsen
their relationship

but never improve it.

What could be more encouraging
news for us?

Yes, you're right.

The further apart Liaodong
and Pyongyang become,

more opportunities we will have.

The Grand Martial general
is excessively concerned.

It's not excessive.

This could potentially tear
the country apart.

That's why I took the initiative

and made peace with
the civil officials.

But as long as discord continues
between you and your brother,

the country will never
have stability.

Go back and deliver my message
to General Yang.

I will keep the country together
by eliminating Namgeon.

Reconcile.

It is the Grand Martial
General's strict order.

A strict order?

I'm trying to eliminate
a disgrace to the clan,

and the Grand Martial General
is giving me

orders in our family matter?

He said he would come
to Pyongyang himself

if you do not reconcile.

And you won't be dealing with me
when he does.

You will be face to face
with General Yang.

Source indicate Tang is preparing

for yet another invasion.

And this country is still suffering
from an ongoing drought.

It may look peaceful
on the outside,

but we are in a silent crisis.

Pelase don't provoke
the Grand Martial General.

He is quite irritable
with worries of the state.

How is General Yang Manchun?

He is well

How about you, Joyoung?
I'm well, father.

Good.

I heard about the situation.

Bu Kiwon is our biggest problem.

He is manipulation everyone
from behind the curtains.

Has there been any word
from Lord Namgeon?

We are searching for him,

but he's yet to be located.

I worry that General Yang's
fears may be realized...

General, Bu Kiwon is here
to see Minister Namseng!

What business could
he possibly have?

This is excatly what we feared.

What you feared?

We feared General Yang Manchun
would attempt to capture control

of the state once His Excellency
Yeon Gaesomun passed on.

Though not yet official,

you are the Supreme Commander
of Goguryeo now.

Why is he telling you what to do?

He is refusing to acknowleege
your authority.

On top of that, he wants to come
to Pyongyang himself.

You must stop him
from entering the city

if nothing else.

With His Excellency gone,

you could lose everything.

And Yang Manchun will rise

to the Supreme Commander
of Goguryeo.

This is what Liaodong is after,

I'm trying to figure out a way
to stop him.

I have an idea.
Do tell us.

You can go to Liaodong first

before Yang Manchun somes
to Pyongyang.

Me going to Liaodong first?

Have an inspection tour os Liaodong

in your capacity
as Supreme Commander.

Not only will you be able
to break Liaodong's spirit

but also show the public your
commanding presence

as the Supreme Commander.

You will achieve what you want

and your actions will be justified.

I must oppose.

Now is not the time
for Lord Namseng

to leave Pyongyang unattended.

I understand what
you're trying to achieve,

but you must first strengthen
your foundation here in Pyongyang.

Pyongyang military is
under his command,

and now he has the loyalty
of the civil officials as well.

Lord Namseng's foundation
is strong enough.

No, it is but a castle
buit on sand.

A castle built on sand?

Does that mean
you don't trust our loyalty?

Is this true, sir?
No, I don't trust your loyalty.

An enemy will not turn into
a trustworthy ally overnight.

Silence!

Settle down!

But sir...
That's enough.

Thank you for the idea.

I wil consider it carefully
and decide my next move.

You're most welcome, sir.

Serve your master well.

He will soon be the Supreme
Commander of this state.

Come to think of it we are
on the same side now.

Both you and I
serve Minister Namseng.

Right, fellow?

I do not trust you
High Commissioner.

If you create mischief that

exceeds your bounds
and harms this state,

you can be certain that
I will step forward and stop you.

I like your spirit.

All men should be as bold.

Don't take my warning lightly.

Brother,

I wondered where my kid brother
had disappeared to.

I wondered about you as well.

It's been five long years.

But why Namseng?

You knew I would give rein

to my ambition with Namgeon.

Things don't always workout
the way you planned.

How ironic.

The younger brother serves
the older brother Namseng,

and the older brother serves
the younger brother Namgeon.

Whoever prevails,

one of us will make the
Supreme Commander of this state.

It will be an everlasting honor
and glory for our clan.

You haven't changed at all.

Hong,
Yes, brother.

Won't you yield just this once?

This isn't like you.

I fear you more than I fear
anyone else in the world.

I, too, find it most difficult
to figure out your moves.

I guess I'm in for a real contest.

with my adoring little brother...

Don't let your guard down, brother.

I'm going to fight hard.

Then let the fight begin.

A frontline inspection?

Are you sure he said inspection?

He's not coming to
visit General Yang,

but he is coming for an inspection?
Yes, General.

He wants to tour the entire
Liaodong region.

Unbelieveable!

His arrogance will pierce the sky!

He was already acting like

the Supreme Commander in Pyongyang.

I was so repulsed that
I could hardly look at him.

An inspection means he is putting

Liaodong army under his command.

Of course it is.

He will undermine
General Yang's authority

and show off his strength.

We can't let him do this.

We should teach him a lesson
when he comes to Lisodong.

Namseng is the Supreme Commander.

General!

With Yeon Gaesomun gone,

He is the Supreme Commander.

But his attitude couldn't
be more direspectful.

What's more he had orderes his men

to shoot you down with an arrow.

It still makes my blood boil
when I think about that.

Enough

Division is my foremost concern.

Do you wish to be
the ones to create it?

What did you learn about Namgeon?

I was told he went into hiding.

Treat Namseng with proper
respect and decorum

when he arrives for inspection.

Let us just be glad

if Namseng safely assumes
his father's authority.

No, sir.

You must withdraw
the order immediately!

It's already been decided.

It is too soon to leave
Pyongyang unattended.

The civil official cannot
be trusted.

That's why the warriors
are staying behind

and I am going alone

General Ji
Yes, sir.

I'm trusting you
to protect the city

with generals On and
Yi while I'm away.

I won't let you down, sir.

Sir, are you certain that
you do not need us to escort you?

Don't worry. General

Gom will accompany me.

And Captain Dae,
you will stay behind us as well.

Captain Dae is one man that
we do need for this tour, sir.

You will do as I say.

This is a very important
and meaningful trip.

We will leave as soon
as we are prepared.

so get to work right away.
Yes, sir!

Gaedong,

I need you to make a run
to Geunglak Temple.

Lady Sukyoung is there.

I want you to bring her back here.

You have a very pretty face.

Would you like to try?
No, thank you.

It's not for girls like me.

I don't know what the world

is like being raised in the palace.

I envy you for having lived

in the vast meadows and mountains.

If I am born again,

I want be born as a man.

Do you have specific man in mind

that you wish to be like?

Well...

There is a man named Dae Joyoung.

He is a low ranking
military officer,

but he saved this country.

And he saved my life several times.

If I could be reborn a man,

I want to be just like Dae Joyoung.

If you like him so much,

why don't you get close to him?

Get close to him?

Eyes are the mirrors of the heart.

I can tell that you are
in love with him.

No, I can't be! Me... ?

I shouldn't have said anything.

Forget I mentioned him.

Your grace, would you come outside?

Captain Dae Joyoung is here.

Captain Dae Joyoung?

Yes, Your Grace.
And he's alone.

Captain Dae,

Have you fared well, Your Grace?

I heard from your servant that

there is an injured woman
staying here.

It doesn't require your concern.

What brings you here, Captain Dae?

Is there something
you wish to tell me?

Minister Namseng wishes to see you.

He will soon be leaving for
an inspection tour of Liaodong.

He'd like to see you
befora he leaves

and asks that bring you back.

I am in a middle of
a hundred-day prayer.

Tell him go have a safe trip.

And even if I weren't busy,

it is not Namseng place
to summon me.

Please do not be upset.

I am just following an order...

You disappoint me as well.

I thought you were
an exceptional man

and here you are running
petty errands.

Your Grace...

I don't know much about the world,

but I do know what suits a man.

You don't belong
under Minister Namseng.

You have more important work
to do for this country.

Do you understand?Go back and tell Minister
Namseng

that I will not forget
his insolence.

And I don't ever want to
see you again

if it is for something like this!

It is a wise decision to leave
Dae Joyoung behind.

I was afraid he might decide
to stay in Liaodong

if I took him with me.

You will need him

until you have secured complete
control of the state.

Yes, I know.

Dae Joyoung, sir.
Come in.

Where is Lady Sukyoung?

He refused to come on account that

she has not completed her

Oh?

Perhaps I should've gone
there myself.

Don't take it personally
about having to stay ebhind

I need someone to take care of
the family while I am gone.

Don't worry sir.

What are you talking about?

Li Kaigu has dissapeared?

Well, I didn't see him
for a few days,

so I thought he went fishing,
but...

Where could he have gone?

I don't know, sir.

He had me fooled, too.

Where is Li Kaigu?

He went to Pyongyang Fort.

What? Pyongyang Fort?

He went to Pyongyang
at a time like this?

If he is captured,
everything will be ruined!

I can't believe this!

Sir!

I've come to take you back,
Minister Namgeon!

What about my brother Namseng?

He should be en route
to Liaodong by now.

It is time you entered Pyongyang.

The civil officials and thousands
of private guards await you!

Seize control of Pyongyang Fort now,
Supreme Commander!

Very well. Let us go.

I would like to be on my way now.

You shouldn't be moving around yet.

I'm well enough to walk.

You can hardly stand.

How will you descend the mountain?

Go back to the room and lie down.

I'm all right.
You don't have to worry.

Thank you for everything.

I knew it was you, Chulin.

Chulin...

Chulin!

Chulin!

Chulin! Chulin!

Wake up, Chulin!
