The kingdoms that your grandfather
ruled for 44 years,

giving them peace and tranquility,

have been in great sadness and
mourning since his death.

The just and Holy intention of its
governance appears in his will,

because he left Your Highness
as his successor.

And although I,
the Reverend Cardinal of Spain,

govern these kingdoms
at the service of your Highness,

I implore you to come
as soon as you can.

As your presence would
bring noticeable benefits,

but also to prevent the damage
that could otherwise occur.

Your highness must come and take the yoke
the Catholic king,

your grandfather left you with which so many
brave and proud people have been have tamed.

And on the other hand, the
arrows of that peerless queen,

your grandmother, Dona Isabel,
who held the moors

The Turks are coming.

The Turks are coming.

Come! Come on!
Go Go!

Come! Hide the children!
Come! Come on!

Now!

Come on!
Don't stop! Death to Turkish!

Don't stop!
Death to Turkish! Death to the infidel!

Halt!
Stop!

Do you want to kill the king
of Castile and Aragon?

Are you traitors to the king?

Render to your king the homage he deserves.

Did you imagine Castilla would
be as green as Flanders?

Only that I would see some resemblance.
Even small.

And you, lord of Chi�vres?

I've never seen such amazing mountains.

Enjoy contemplating them Highness.
Now they belong to you.

The villagers beg for mercy
for mistaking us forTurkish pirates.

Fools!

They asked a thousand times for forgiveness.

They claim that news had not reached
them of the death of his wife,

Queen Juana.

Have they learned from their mistake?

Is my wish that no one is punished.

I hope that we will be
better received in court.

Give this to
His Reverence Cardinal of Utrecht.

May the Body of our Lord Jesus Christ
preserve thy soul unto life everlasting.

Amen.

Your Highness,
the Body of Christ.

Your Highness,
the Body of Christ.

The Body of Christ.

The king is in Castilla!

A year awaiting his arrival!

And now he makes a mockery
of those I sent to meet him

by landing elsewhere.

Your Reverence, sea and storms
do not obey any king.

I pledged my word for it.

How far does he think I can
hold the mood of his subjects?

First, he is proclaimed king...
in Brussels!

And the queen being in his life.

And how many positions have been
distributed before setting foot in Castilla?

Has he had the courtesy to consult
me? I am the Regent!

- His Highness counts on you.
- He does not!

He knows that he should never have allowed
himself to be declared a vassal of the French.

He only wanted to ensure the safety
of their domains in Flanders.

And it was necessary
to humiliate himself?

No. He compromised the future of all
for which the late Fernando fought.

If I raised his head...

I think

I would be holding in my hands,

a mud dam that is cracking everywhere.

Calm down, Your Reverence

You have fulfilled and exceeded
the mission entrusted to you.

You were his teacher.
Why has he acted in this way?

Trust in His Highness.
He will not disappoint you.

He has already.

If he does not show respect for
the laws of Castilla and Aragon

I foresee...

A reign shorter than his father's.

A year ago, you were going to inherit
the crowns of these realms.

But my grandfather changed the will.

You were his favorite.

Do you think that it
reflects his true will?

- He wasn't coerced.
- No. We don't know that.

During Isabel's life, they agreed
that Carlos would inherit Castilla.

If everything was decided in advance,

why did my husband
educate you to be king?

Are you insinuating that
the will was manipulated?

My grandfather changed his mind!
He had his reasons!

Perhaps! But many only see
your brother as a foreigner

who has usurped your rights
and those of your poor mother.

The presence of Cisneros ensures
that everything was done as agreed.

Cisneros, my darling,

has already begun to realize
that what was agreed is perhaps

not what it should be.

Do not be overwhelmed,
Leonor.

Surely, we will miss the
amenities of court.

That is no comfort.

Sister, you'd think you were
dragged here by force.

Was it not you?

- You must forget your Count.
- I think only of returning to him.

No matter how high their lineage,
a Count is not worthy of a princess.

Chi�vres speaks through your mouth.

To have you with me right
now is a great relief.

And I thank you from my heart.

Everything will be discussed in due time.

Nothing is more important to me than family.
Don't you know that?

Now, I seem to hear
our Aunt Margarita.

Do you not wish to meet our
brothers who were born here?

To see mother again?

I confess I'm afraid.

Are you not?

She is our mother.

And you don't think it is strange, this
kingdom in which we find ourselves?

Take advantage of it. Soon there will be strangers
who will enjoy our hunting grounds..

- There will be enough for everyone.
- Maybe they will decide otherwise.

Those who accompanied your father
had no intention of sharing anything.

Must we allow that Padilla?
Have we not learned the lesson?

- Let's wait for developments.
- In Castilla nothing works as expected.

Enough!

Everyone must obey the will of
my grandfather, King Fernando.

- He knew what he was doing.
- You are right, my lord.

And there is something nobody
can never take away from you.

His desire that you...

have this.

The Royal Seal. It was
not sent to Flanders.

Keep it;
Because nothing is left to you.

And remember he wanted
this and more for you.

Allow me to honour
it once again.

You were born here.

You should succeed when your
mother dies. Not a foreigner.

- You speak of my brother.
- No, my lord.

He speaks of the
feeling of Castilla.

Don't act as if
I don't exist.

- I meant no such thing, Your Reverence.
- Everyone does it.

But that does not prevent me from
knowing what happens in court.

Who has to take care
of His Highness?

- Who was so badly advised.
- Some might dispute his succession?

In this land, there is no smooth succession.

Perhaps the law is not
respected in Castilla?

The King was first to break it.
He did wrong proclaiming himself.

Discontent exists, but there will be no
time for them to prime and fatten it.

In a few days, the king
will be in court.

Do you share the irritation of
Cisneros but not his concern?

Mother... What could be so urgent?

Your daughter may not be baptized
without you, Your Highness.

Princess Luisa of France.

My daughter.

In the Name of the Father, and
of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

Amen.

I will go to the altar of God.

To God, the joy of my youth.

Do me justice, O God, and fight
my fight against an unholy people,

rescue me from the wicked and deceitful man.

- Who is the lady?
- Which, sir?

Perhaps I would refer to another
with her being present?

The Countess of Chateaubriant,
Francisca de Foix.

The sister of your friend Lautrec.
Married and a very virtuous woman.

I assure you.

...for they have led me and brought me to
Thy holy hill and Thy dwelling place.

And I will go to the altar of God,
to God, the joy of my youth.

Hear, hear
the Constable of France.

Now, I must fear
Carlos of Hapsburg, my vassal.

No, sire.
But do not you put your trust in him.

The Lord of Flanders
has become the King of Castilla and Aragon.

He has inherited turbulent kingdoms.
He will still have to make them his.

He will succeed.
And when that happens,

Will he not claim Burgundy
Which his grandfather lost?

Or the Duchy of Milan,
I govern for you.

Try to do wisely.

Since my conquest, Milan
is as French as the City of Paris.

And I will defend both with my life.

Duke...

You come to court wearing more
jewelry and silks than your king.

Do I have to be wary of
so magnificent a vassal?

Carlos is my vassal
just like you.

The higher your rank,
the greater it makes me.

Beware of a powerful vassal
Your Highness.

Because he tends to think that
he deserves what his master owns.

Envy!
The most miserable of sins.

But I will listen to my mother
and take care of Carlos.

As much as you,
Duke.

It will not be necessary, Your Highness.
Would you be envious

if your ancestors were faithful squires of mine?

It's not envy I feel for you my lord.

But devotion, loyalty and love.

What else can the best greyhound
in my pack feel?

We are family.

There can be only noble feelings between us.

How is your wife, my dear cousin?

She is a delicate flower.
We just have to take good care of her.

Bring her.
Bring her to court.

In my garden, there are never
enough flowers to be enjoyed.

The queen has gone to
Your Highness.

It is not her that who I want.
As well you know.

All day, I've only had
eyes for you , Countess.

Permit me to doubt that.

Was it not missing "flowers"
you admired in chamber.

Just weeds
compared with you.

-I'm Married, sire.
- Am I not also?

But I am neither man

nor king.

My master, Cardinal Cisneros
wants to meet with you tomorrow.

- Before celebrating Mass.
- Don't worry. I will come to his office.

No. We will wait in the throne room.

He also begs you not to abandon
court in the coming days.

What can the regent want of you

but to send a message to the nobles
most loyal to your grandfather?

Cisneros is a righteous man
and he thinks of you as a son.

Show respect for the law,
but assert your rights.

Be faithful to the memory
of my husband. I beg you.

Don't miss the chance with
which you are being presented.

And remember that you are not alone.

Let go of me!

- The regent has reconsidered.
- Are you so sure?

Why else would he
send for the prince?

I will not remind you of the narrow
link that has always united us.

Your Reverence,

you take care of me
and to obey you is a blessing.

So my grandfather taught me.

He as not wrong trusting you.

You know the threat that
hangs over our kingdom.

More than ever, we must act with
determination and join forces.

I'm counting on you to
counteract any opposition

Your brother wants the
crown only for himself.

You must respect the
will of your grandfather.

His will was different for years.
He only changed at the last moment.

But he did.
Carlos is your older brother and rightful heir.

This was decided by Queen Isabel.
And your grandfather knew how to be loyal.

It cost him, but he was.

Just like me.
You must do the same.

- You said that I would reign!
- Forget it!

And stay away from those who only
want to use you for their own benefit.

Do you prefer that my place is taken by
a stranger who does not respect you

or the law of Castilla?

You have deceived me.

You and grandfather.

All my life has been a lie.

Your Highness...

Tell me that I can continue
to count on your loyalty.

Your Highness do not force
me to lock you in a tower.

Do it,

and my supporters will be multiplied by thousands.

I'm not naive.
You and my grandfather you were my best teachers.

And I see you have submitted.

Never ask me to forget
and to stand aside!

Do not count on it!

It must be a grave issue
that brings you here.

In all my years in these realms,
it is the first time you have visited me.

Stay away from the prince.

How can you ask me that?

Since childhood, he has been with me,
beside my husband.

If you do not desist in your intrigues,
you will have to leave the court.

What else could I
expect of you?

You never have forgiven me for
taking the place of Queen Isabel.

Like so many others.

Neither my health, nor my age, nor your
status will prevent me from stopping you.

I am the widow of a king
who could not bear children.

In a Kingdom always hostile to me.
Do you think that I will not fight for my future?

No one will envy your future

if you don't respect the
memory of your husband.

He wanted Fernando to reign.
You know as well as I do.

You imposed upon him
the will of Isabel!

I have always lived under the shadow of
that woman, to whom I did no wrong.

But her time,
like yours,

has passed.

Mine is yet to begin.

And I'm not going to give up anything.

- But what do you intend?
- I must leave immediately.

If the king will not come to
me, I willI go to meet him.

You are the highest authority in Castilla.
You can not leave the court.

- And less in your state.
- Perhaps a civil war will break out.

It is my obligation to avoid that
Are you going to stop me from doing that?

- I'll go with you.
- No!

Stay in court.
Keep an eye on the pack that threatens us

and give me a full account of what happens.

The Governor of Cuba has
learned of some land

with riches incomparable to what
we have know so far.

- On the island?
- No. Farther west. On the mainland.

Others before him have recounted such
figments. Do you trust his judgment?

He claims to have more
evidence in his possession.

Perhaps the Crown should authorize an expedition.

The regent has too many other concerns.

Let the king decide
when he arrives.

And let him grant a license to some
Fleming to whom you are in debt?

- There are capable men...
- You take me for who I am not, sir.

Adrian of Utrecht is not beholden to anyone.

Simply now, there are more pressing issues
on this side of the ocean.

Don't you think so?

These bales must ship before nightfall.
Quicken the pace.

Come on!

Take me inside.

My inexperience will have disappointed you.

I never knew a maid to surrender with such passion.

And even less
being Spanish.

- Dare you compare me to others?
- No.

It's just to let you know I
never met a woman so sweet

and burning at once.

Why would I be reserved,
as if we were married?

Open the doors!

Open! Quickly!

Are you going to prevent entry
to the Governor?

Cortés! Cortés!

Is Dona Catalina Juarez
in this house? Yes or no?

We are gentlemen.
Let's not speak about a lady in her absence.

You're going to force me to record every guest.

Governor, my house is yours,

but today you shall
not move from this room.

Stop, excellence.

Your mother entrusted me
with your sisters.

- You are going to pay dearly for this.
- He has nothing to answer for, Don Diego.

As from today, you can consider me
the wife of Don Hernán Cortés.

Those who have brought
it from the mainland

speak of Indians who build
in stone and are decorated with gold.

Certainly we have not known
anything like this so far.

Send an expedition. It is important
that we get there before anyone else.

- And put me in charge. I will not fail you.
- I know and I am sorry that is not possible.

- Marry your lady.
- The wedding will not be an impediment.

Will have to stay on the island
taking care of your family.

I'll fix it.

Dear friend, no, once that road is undertaken,
you can not undo it.

- What is the Yucatan?
- Unexplored lands of the Indies.

And will the Admiral of Flanders
be pleased by this appointment?

He himself requested it
Your Highness.

My good tutor!
I have missed you much at this time.

And I you,
Your Highness.

I would be happier to see you if it
wasn't for what we have to deal with.

- What should we fear?
- Everything, because the errors you commit

Weigh as stones tied to the foot of a castaway.

It is urgent that you call on the court.
What stopped you from doing so already?

Why so urgent?

The party around your brother grows,
encouraged by Queen Germana.

You think to oppose a
legitimate succession?

The proclamation in Brussels
has diminished such legitimacy.

- Cisneros approved it.
- What else could I do?

Encourage the disgruntled?
But I fear to yield to the pressure.

- I can longer count on his loyalty?
- Prove that he can trust you.

- He will support you. Go and see.
- No!

Cisneros is an obstacle unless
you kiss where he treads.

Your Highness

I will get a blessing for you more
valuable than that of His Reverence.

That of The Queen Juana.

Lord of Chi�vres.

Ghosts do not age.
So you are real.

Have you come to me with
bad news about my children?

Your Highness
It is your heir, Don Carlos,

who ordered me to prostrate myself at
your feet and request you to receive him.

- My son is in Castilla?
- Yes, my lady.

And accompanied by
Princess Leonor.

So many times I have been
told things that are not so.

How I could lie to you,
Your Highness?

Why would Carlos have to request
an audience to see his mother?

If he does, it will be because he wishes
to be received by me as The Queen.

You are the owner of the kingdom.

In your hands it is safeguarded
for your children.

No one has come to me with
such words for years.

What is it, sir?

Some, have an interest in

pushing your son Fernando to claim rights

- belonging to his brother Carlos.
- Some?

Who?

- Queen Germana.
- That...

Only you can avert these evils

and prevent your children
reliving the story of Cain and Abel.

Your Highness, Will you
ratify Carlos as your heir?

Bring him here.

Superb gem.
Worthy of a queen.

Your wife will be the envy of the court.

Do you really think that Claudia
will be the recipient?

Its brightness
is not comparable to yours.

But together,
you will dazzle.

The salamander is your emblem,
Majesty.

Will you permit me to pin it on you?

Do you think I'm
a mare of the royal stables?

Do I have to appear before everyone
marked as such?

You reject my present?

There is no gold in the world that
can buy what is not for sale.

Condesa...

A king does not buy;
he takes what he wants.

Although you know he will listen
to prayers and reasons.

Hear therefore mine.

I would rather die than become
another of your fleeting conquests.

Don't worry about that.

If I can promise
something to you

nothing between us
will be fleeting.

Accept it

as a sign of respect I feel for you.

Quickly!

Why can we not marry?
How can you insult me this way?

I have not deceived you Catalina.
On my return, I'll keep my word.

What if you don't return?

How will you then restore the
honor that you have taken from me?

God knows if I do not have your
child in my womb.

Pray then, that my journey
will be short and profitable.

You have always said my sisters
and I are like daughters to you.

- I have shown that it is so.
- Why are you going to allow this affront?

That Cortés does not deserve you.

Three bushels.

You bring a message from the governor?
Behave and keep the sword.

If the governor wants to talk
with me, simply ask.

Since when do you have to
arrest me to talk to me?

Do I have to treat you as a man of honor
when you avoid your commitments?

Or are you going to fulfill the promise
you gave to Catalina Juarez?

You have committed an outrage and
denying a marriage, a crime.

If so, there would not be enough
prisons in the world for all the criminals.

I remind you, Se�or Cort�s,
in the colony,

Spanish ladies are all under
the care of the Crown.

And how many will continue to
follow the few who came here

If you can deceive them and leave
them as if they were an Indian?

And if you do not suffer any punishment,

- what will preclude others doing the same?
- Punish me if I deserve it.

Do not be foolish.
You must marry and you must do it now!

And give up the expedition?

Forget it.

Because you will be caring
for your new wife

or you will be purging
your felony in prison.

You know that these women
they are like my daughters.

No parent would do with a daughter
what you did with Catalina's sister.

Go.
If you don't pay for the crime of honour

you will pay for your insolence.

Your Reverence...

The King is with you?

I departed to meet him, but my health

left me stranded in this convent.

I have to talk to him.
It is crucial.

The King is going to Tordesillas
to see to Doña Juana.

So he will not pass here.

- God give me strength to follow him.
- Calm down.

Castilla's peace is at stake.
How am I going to calm down?

Beg him to come see me.

Can you assure His Highness
of your loyalty?

I am loyal to Castilla.

To the work of Dona Isabel and
Don Fernando. And would just like...

to transfer the power the courts
gave me and to die...

... knowing

that the kingdom is at peace.

I'll take him your message.

I'm sure that he will attend you, as
he knows how much he owes to you.

These realms will never
accept a foreigner as King.

He must not make the mistake of his father.

You must rely on people born in them.

And I...

I can tell him who to trust.

I...

I did not tell the truth.

I do remember a mother.

her kisses,

her dignity,

her screams...

Get out!

You dare to hide yourself
before the king?

Come.

What is your name?

Catalina is my name.

You have nothing to fear
from your brethern.

No lady accompanies you?

No one plays with you?

The Queen is my company.

And I am yours.

And these are the clothes
that you normally wear?

No. Well, they are the
newest at my disposal.

Your Highness
The Queen awaits.

Have you come to
get us out of here?

Your Highness

Receive your children,

those you have
as your humble servants.

Arise... Arise.

My children!

My dear children.

How you have grown!

There will be time to talk.

Now, let me.

It's been a long journey
and you must rest.

I also need to rest.

You should also enjoy ripe fruit

because you can not save
its freshness over time or think

that others will not take advantage
of what you foolishly refuse to take.

Are these tips worthy of a sovereign?

I am afraid I was too
permissive with you.

Claudia...

Thank you, husband,
for this gift.

That gives notice to everyone of the
happiness that your daughter is to you.

My caesar...

Neither modesty nor virtue makes
a woman reject honours,

but the ambition.

Perhaps.

- But is not the case with the Countess.
- It's a smart woman.

who knows that by rejecting a gem,
its value increases,

and she will end up getting two.

You have never interfered in my affairs.
Why now?

Because there is a lineage behind Francisca
ready to thrive at the expense of the Crown.

And who does it
in France?

Don't worry mother.

I possess as much authority
to give and to remove.

The Duke of Bourbon
is aware of your interest in this lady.

Apparently he knows her appetites,

Since he boasts of having
satisfied her before you.

Would you send forces to take a
place scorned by such a worthy vassal?

What sovereign would?

Gentlemen...

We will participate in a decision
that particularly concerns you.

Lord Duke of Bourbon,
from today,

my good friend Lautrec will
occupy your position as governor of Milan.

But, Your Majesty,
How have I disappointed you?

In nothing, my friend.

I appreciated very much the tenacity with
which you have fulfilled my mandate.

Yet you arrange for my relief by an
inexperienced man to whom everything is new?

Yes that's what I've decided.

Sire, I demand an explanation!

The King of France
explains only to God.

Has someone offended the Constable of France?

Yes, ma'am.
The only one who can.

My son's mood is changeable.
It will be forgotten tomorrow.

Today, I am no longer
governor of Milan.

Tomorrow, Lautrec will already
be there. How will it be forgetten?

A cretin, whose only merit is to have
a sister to the liking of The King.

His Majesty decides.
We obey.

No, madam.
A good king does not allow himself
to be governed by his passions.

France deserves the best,
not a tyrant.

Your Highness

It should be great comfort for you

that your son will free you of the burden
of Government of your realms.

Between mother and son,
the roles remain.

There is another. It is my desire to learn
to govern following your advice.

You will need me at court then.

As you please.

However,

I have to fulfill the mandate of my father
and ensure your welfare.

I'm sure You will do that with
the same exemplary zeal.

I've grown apart from you, mother.

This is the way others have arranged it,
regardless of the pain it causes.

Now having you so close,

the obligations our status
will separate us again.

Hear the prayer of your son who loves you.

Nothing in it is from
spite or ill will.

If God had acted upon my request
and I had been with my husband,

I would have paved the way.
But that was not his will.

And I am still, by his design,
the Queen of Castilla.

Kneel before your queen.

It is by my agreement, as I
alone have such power,

that you govern in my name these
kingdoms that also belong to you.

Never forget who you are

and what is what is expected of you.

Your Highness!

You arrive on time.

Hopefully negotiations with The Regent
have gone as well as ours.

Cardinal Cisneros is still
on your side, Your Highness.

He wants to pass to you the powers he was
given by the courts before he dies.

- He thinks his time is soon?
- And I think it is wrong.

I'm sorry for His Reverence.

We will try to seek a worthy successor.

No one knows these
kingdoms like him.

He is sure that his advice will help you.

We will leave as soon
as you command.

My sister Catalina
with come with us.

Think about it, Your Highness.
To The Queen...

The captivity of my poor sister
has concluded.

Here they come.

- Are we going to leave our mother here?
- It's for her own sake.

You, better than anyone,
should know that.

The Court of Castilla
is waiting for us.

Are we not going to meet Cisneros?

And risk having His Highness
hear what does not suit you?

It is you it will not suit.

Will you avoid him even in his last moment?
The King owes him a lot.

Nothing can be done for him
that has not been done already.

Let nature take its course!

- Juana has bowed to the usurper?
- Castilla can not have two kings!

We lacked daring.
We should have gone to see her!

- Everything is thus determined?
- No.

Your mother can only stop
being queen when she dies.

But the Crown of Aragon
can still be yours.

I gave my husband a son.
Although he lived only a few hours,

he invalidated the oath
of Juana as heir.

Only the courts can decide who
is responsible for the throne.

Do you want to separate
the two kingdoms?

Did your grandfather not mean
for me to give him children?

Being king of Aragon, you could
present yourself in Castilla

as a supporter of the rights of The Queen

and claim a regency
on her behalf.

With Carlos as a foreign usurper,
the kingdom will be in your favor.

- How do you know how many would support me?
- Mendozas and Pachecos are my family

- and would be with you.
- What about Alba?

The Alba, always side with Castilla.
Let me talk to my grandfather.

The regent of Aragon will
also provide us ears.

Count on major cities.
I guarantee Toledo.

By their example, will soon follow
Burgos and Segovia.

Add "the spears", Your Highness.
Be convinced that if you take this step,

your rights will not be violated.

- But have you gone mad?
- You are the largest single Castilla

who remained loyal to King Fernando
when everyone turned their backs.

Well I'm proud.
Alba are loyal to our Lord.

But Carlos is not our master.
What courts proclaimed him?

What awaits Castilla
if it falls into their hands?

Being violated by foreigners!
I know better.

Enough! Now, one can only be loyal
or traitor to the will of kings.

Why respect a will that
harms both of us

when we all know Fernando was
destined to be crowned?

Because that's the law!

No law is above the good of Castilla!

There will be war.

And the defeat will mark
the traitors,

but there will always be
an Alba among them.

Because you and I

will find ourselves
on opposing sides.

Catalina! Catalina!

Catalina!

Catalina!

Catalina? Where is my daughter?

What have you done with my daughter?
Dogs!

Bring her back to me!

Bring her back to me!
I will certainly die.

I will certainly die.

Who am I?
Who am I?

We must return, Your Highness.
The queen is mad.

The loss of Princess Catalina
has prostrated her, she is bedridden.

She will not eat or drink or allow
herself to be washed

She says she is ready to die
if her daughter is not returned.

You risk losing favour with The Queen.

Are you afraid it will hand
the crown to my brother?

- It won't.
- What if she dies?

- That would be the end of the problems.
- The Queen can not die.

Before Castilla has to forget.

God forgive me...

Catalina!

You must return to Tordesillas.

Have you no heart?

One day, I will be back
to take you with me.

Now, let's talk about what
we should tell our mother.

In the Name of the Father,
and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost

- Amen.
- Amen.

I join you in marriage.

What are you doing, my lord?

Can you not sleep?

I was thinking about how generous
the governor has been.

An even broader mandate,

- Greater sharing of Indians.
- We have more than we ever dreamed.

A few days of navigation
to the west,

There are lands and people
of whom we know nothing.

And I feel that wealth,
real wealth, awaits us there.

You will risk your life for it?

What would I do if...?

You are my wife.

You would lack for nothing if
something bad happened to me.

You deserve to be taught a lesson,
but you are not a man I can do without.

- You will go on the expedition to the Yucatan.
- You will not be sorry.

Let's go and take what we can.
Who knows if this adventure will last?

It is up to us when it ends.

Unfortunately, in this case
neither you nor I will decide.

There is already an owner. Carlos has
given the Yucatan to a noble Flemish.

Are we going to explore land for
another to get its treasures?

And a Flemish?
The rights should go to the Castellanos.

- I like it as little as you.
- Write to the king about this outrage!

You will do it also.

Combine your letter with mine.
He must see that the entire colony is insulted,

- not only the administrator.
- Count on it.

Highness... I beg you...

What do you think?

Move away.

Master!
Leonardo, get up!

Look.

Your son is king because he married me.
I gave the throne!

My dear, will you end up
like Juana de Castilla?

Of you, only one thing is expected.

You give heirs to the kingdom.
Not a negligible mission.

Fulfil it and let life be generous to you.

How?

By closing my eyes?

You gave him a kingdom.

He will give you an empire.

- These are words full of courage
- and justice. Just like yours.

When you go, tell the clerk to come in.

This letter of señor. Cortés must reach
the king's hands as soon as possible.

He will not come.

I can not lie to you in this situation.

Open the top drawer left.

It is my will.
Take it to His Highness.

It will help him to avoid
errors in government.

Tell His Highness

I die praying for him.

And these realms.

My Lady, cease in your grief.

For I have brought my sister Catalina.

The Lord of Flanders, will regret
for life taking the princess,

thinking about my own good
without regard for your wishes,

I decided to take her with us and
give her the life a princess deserves.

When will these Lords of Flanders understand

that in Castilla we do not like
them meddling in our affairs?

Calm down, mother.
We beg your forgiveness.

Is Catalina here?

Mother!
Only force could separate me from you.

Nobody can stand to lose everything.

Not even a queen.

I will make this gesture
have your reward.

Your Highness...

I am sorry to present myself
to you in this manner.

The King always has ears for the
Duke of Alba and is glad to see you.

My lord, do not procrastinate any
longer over your coming to court.

Castilla is a powder keg and
the fuse is already burning.

- The situation is so serious?
- The kingdom is divided.

Even in the best families,
parties are formed.

Why would the presence of
His Highness calm things down?

Would it not be better to
tackle the root problem?

Your brother is a good Castilian.
It is hard not to love him.

But do not you allow
yourselves to meet.

Who are the greatest in the kingdom?

I can only answer for myself.

We have legitimacy and strength.

God is with His Highness.
If they want war,

- the will.
- No, no.

I have not come to these
realms to make war.

What do you suggest?

Only Cardinal Cisneros can transfer
power to you. Go and see him.

His Reverence is dead.

Unfortunately there is
nothing he can do for you.

Come to court soon.
But with enough armed men.

My lord, if your brother is not
loyal, you must order his arrest.

And Queen Germana.

I know of only one way to check
if Fernando is with me or against me.

Send a message that I will talk to him
wherever and whenever he says.

That's madness! Do you think to put
yourself within reach of your enemies?

My family is my strength!

Do what I say.

Your Highness...

This is the will of Cardinal Cisneros.

He himself entrusted to me on
his deathbed, I give it to you.

You will know better than I
how to deal with this matter.

Gossips torment me talking
with ill will about Carlos.

Both are blood of my blood and I
know that such infamy is impossible.

No doubt that you will be faithful to
The House and bond that unites us.

For although young, honour
and your love for it

will never allow any complaint against him

or against your mother.

What news is this that upsets
you so much My Lord?

The Queen?

What interest can you have in the
words of one who lacks judgment?

Read!

And then tell me if she is crazy.

For this?

For this, you will give
up the Crown?

Your mother lives far from
the feeling of the realm.

Decide

if you want to be remembered
as a good son or good king!

Your Highness! Your brother
wants to speak with you.

All will go well, María.

Bonjour.

Lady.

As great a gentleman as my grandfather

could not have chosen a better queen.

Good morning, brother.

Brother!

I could never use that word.

Now I hope to always have it on my lips

to show the affection and
loyalty that binds me to you.

Accept the Golden Fleece, a sample
of gifts for you in my reign.

We are a family.

Everyone must see that.

- Long live the king!
- Viva!

Fernando does not support us.
Little we can do without their rebellion against Carlos.

Surround the Yucatan.
I just ask you permission to sail.

I did not know to give up the crown

you also lose your favor.

But it's nothing that I serve you now!

The constable's wife has died.

From now on, you'll have me
aware of everything you do.

Oh you will pay for
risking the life of the king.

Snatch it all, my Caesar.
Everything!

Castilla is against him.
It has been sworn,

but no Castilian feels he is king.
Rise up and everyone will follow you.

Your nephew,
Archbishop of Toledo?

It is a key position in Spain
and we have to keep it under control.

You will never have
the heritage of the Bourbons.

You know very well
I have a right to their heritage.

Soon, the Parliament will be held.
There, we will hear.

They will have no choice
but to repent of their misdeeds.

- Everybody hates me as a foreigner!
- Let's get married, Carlos.

How do you give an expedition to one
who has admonished His Magesty?

- Admonished?
- Obey me and you will lack nothing.

In return?

You seek protection in
a betrayal that has not been to betray you.

Ratify the commitment to
Princess Isabel of Portugal.

You do not have to love me to remain.
