Episode 65

Answer the question before the count of three,

or this woman is dead.

One...

Two...

Three!

I'm right here!

Why are you trying to hurt these innocent people?

If you want to kill someone, kill me.

Who are you?

[Prince Daeryangwon (future King Hyeonjong)]

Unveil your masks if you have nothing to hide.

Kill him!

Don't just stand there. Run!

Run, Sunjae!

Get him!

Myeongil!

Stop!

Let's go!

Kill them!

Retreat!

Let them go!

I've confirmed his identity!

[Gang Gamchan (Minister of the Office of Ceremony)]

Just as I thought,

Minister Gang!

Thanks goodness you're here.

My Prince, are you all right?

They told us what happened at the temple. Are you hurt anywhere?

No, I'm fine. Who were those men?

You saved the prince, Master.

No.

[Jin Gwan]

you came just in time and

avoided a tragedy.

But how did you know they were coming and had the prince hide?

I studied a bit of physiognomy and astrology.

Today, I noticed danger on Prince Daeryang's face.

Besides, you had told me in advance to be prepared for something like this.

So I had a secret tunnel dug up under the temple.

Thank you, Master. Thank you.

It's the Buddha looking out for him. Merciful Buddha...

So are you saying that the Empress Dowager is planning to

depose the current Emperor and bring Prince Daeryang to the throne?

Yes, that's why I'm here.

We could've had a great tragedy had I been delayed.

And now that I know who is after him, I can take the prince back to Gaegyeong.

No, I can't let you do that.

Why?

This place is no longer safe for him now that they know he is here.

But Gaegyeong is even more dangerous for him.

How so?

From my observation of the stars,

there will be a huge disturbance in Gaegyeong in the near future.

The prince will not be able to

ascend to the throne until this disturbance is pacified.

Now is not the time.

A disturbance? What kind of disturbance do you foresee?

That I do not know. But you must leave the prince here.

If you're concerned about his safety, leave one of your men with him.

Minister Gang.

Unfortunately, there are dark clouds over the future of this empire.

There will be rivers of blood and hills of corpses someday.

And it will be up to you to save this empire.

You emanate the aura of the Great Guardian of the Land.

You're too kind. But I'm too old to assume such a role.

And the country's military is stronger than ever, so you don't need to fear.

No, you will see. I assure you such day will come.

What is it?

Your Highness, His Majesty has summoned the officials to the council hall.

He has? Why?

I don't see Minister Gang and the Finance Commissioner.

We were unable to get in touch with them on such short notice.

I have summoned you because

[Wang Song- King Mokjong (7th Ruler of Goryeo)]

I've reached an important decision.

Is this about the sharecropping system?

[Choi Wonshin (Vice Minister of the Office of Ceremony)]

No, this is more important.

I am stepping down from the throne.

Your Majesty...

I am befuddled.

[Chae Choongsun (Minister of Investigation)]

Step down from the throne?

For what reason would you announce such shocking news?

Your Majesty.

Is the Empress Dowager giving you pressure

[Hwangbo Yui (Vice Minister of Finance)]

over the sharecropping policy?

This has nothing to with my mother.

Then what other possible reason could there be for you to surrender the throne?

[Kim Shimon(Minister of Domestic Affairs)]

You are our last stronghold, Your Majesty.

I beg you not to forsake us.

Do not forsake us, Your Majesty!

This is irreversible no matter what you say.

Your Majesty.

[Dae Dosu (Minister of Punishment)]

The Empress Dowager may hold different

political views, but this is not the answer.

The throne cannot be abandoned at

one's will just as it cannot be

[Choi Hang (Royal Undersecretary)]

acquired at one's will.

I am not leaving because of political differences.

I am leaving because I am a reprobate that does not deserve the throne.

Your Majesty, I don't understand.

I shared my bed with a man.

I beg your pardon?

I had sexual relations with the Secretary of the Office of Ceremony, Yu Han Gan.

Don't you get it? I committed sodomy.

Do you still want me on this throne?

Or perhaps you'd like to sleep with me as well.

The Emperor said that at the conference hall?

[Empress Dowager Cheonchu]

Yes, Your Highness.

Your Highness, is it true?

How are the ministers reacting to this?

They are in disbelief.

Many of them believe that the Emperor is making this up to get himself deposed.

Please tell me, Your Highness.

Is it true?

Or is this a fabrication like the ministers believe?

Whether it's true or not, the result is the same.

I don't understand what you mean.

If the Emperor wants to leave the throne so much ,

we should let him leave for sake of the country.

But Your Highness, we do not have a successor.

We have Prince Daeryang.

Prince Daeryang?

You were his royal tutor, so I'm sure you know that he is qualified.

Yes, but...

Minister Gang has already gone to see the prince.

So give up on the Emperor.

I have.

It's a lie, isn't it?

About Yu Han Gan...

It can't be true. It can't.

You don't have to lie to me.

[Empress Sunjeong]

If you want to leave the throne,

I will not fight you.

I'm sorry, Empress. This was the only way.

I had no other choice.

You can't do this.

Why? Why are you so cruel to me?

I'm sorry.

Forgive me.

No. I can't.

I can't forgive you.

If it had been a woman...

How could you?

Empress...

Don't. Don't get near me.

Empress!

Did you have to do this?

Mother, you are here.

Did you hate the throne that much?

You did this on purpose, didn't you? You did this to get yourself deposed.

Was it that difficult being the Emperor?

Yes, Mother. This palace is hell to me.

I couldn't stand the avaricious demons that the throne attracts for another minute.

Why didn't you tell me?

Why didn't you just open up to me and tell me how you feel?

Why did you make this foolish choice that would bring self-destruction?

If I had told you, you would've brushed it off as childish whining

and told me to endure it for Goryeo.

Like you always have.

Emperor...

Mother, I have a request.

Yu Han Gan is a pitiable man I used for my own purpose.

Spare him his life.

And I would like Prince Daeryang to be my successor.

That is not your problem right now.

Why did you do something so foolish?

How about the disgrace and infamy you will suffer through history?

It doesn't matter.

This is the role I've been given to play in history.

So it's all right.

I'm sorry that I could not be the son that you wanted.

I'm sorry that I could not be the Emperor you wanted.

I'm sorry, Mother.

What have I done to you? I destroyed you with my greed and ambition.

No, Mother. It's not your fault.

My incompetence is to blame.

I'm very sorry, Mother.

Song, my son...

You failed again?

Forgive me, sir.

Gang Gamchan showed up with his men, and...

How does he show up every time as if

[Kim Chi Yang (Finance Commissioner)]

he knows when we're going to strike?

There is not time for this.

Gang Gamchan saw Sa Gamun's face.

[Duyan]

What?

You've allowed Gang Gamchan to see who you are?

I don't know what to say.

I think we should raise our army and

[Sa Gamun]

make a preemptive move since our identity has been compromised.

Raise an army?

I'll explain later.

My Lord, give me your command.

My Lord.

I want you two to go hide at Shiwangsa for now.

What are you going to do?

I'm going to see the Empress Dowager.

You can't.

If you go now, you'll be captured by Gang Gamchan.

I can't let you go.

Do as I say. It's an order!

My Lord.

I can't give up the Empress Dowager like this.

I can't.

I'll pack. Get Ryang ready.

Answer me. Raise an army?

What is going on?

Sit down.

I'm a Shillan.

What do you mean?

Shilla crumbled almost a hundred years ago.

We've been preparing all this time with a royal descendant of Shilla

to reclaim the lost kingdom.

Are you saying that Commissioner Kim is a descendant of Shilla's royal house?

That's right.

My men and I are warriors that have vowed to die for the resurrection of Shilla.

Another attempt on Prince Daeryang's life?

Yes, Your Highness.

And what happened? Is the prince safe?

Yes, Your Highness.

Luckily, the head priest at Shingyeol Temple had evacuated him in advance,

and my men and I got there just in time to prevent a tragedy.

Thanks heavens. That's a relief.

Who were they? Who keeps coming after Daeryang's life?

Your Highness, this will shock you.

It's Finance Commissioner, Kim Chi Yang.

The Finance Commissioner?

It can't be. You're making a mistake.

He has no reason to hurt Prince Daeryang.

But he does.

He wants to bring Prince Hwangju to the throne.

No, he told me himself that a Wang must preserve the royal line.

Your Highness, Commissioner Kim will say anything to further his own cause.

No, this can't be true.

He would never do this, not to me.

Don't do this, Minister Gang. I'm not myself right now as it is.

Your Highness, I saw the man that attacked Prince Daeryang.

It was Commissioner Kim's right hand man, Sa Gamun.

Your Highness, did something else happen while I was gone?

Your Highness, Commissioner Kim requests to see you.

You have finally showed your true colors, Commissioner.

I don't understand what you mean.

I saw the men that tried to kill Prince Daeryang.

You can't weasel out of this one.

Oh, did you?

I'm impressed. You never disappoint me.

But we'll have to talk about this another time.

I must see the Empress Dowager.

Is it true?

Is it true that you tried to have Prince Daeryang killed?

Yes, Your Highness.

Why? For what?

I'm sorry to have deceived you.

But now that all is out in the open, I will tell you how I really feel.

I tried to get rid of Prince Daeryang to put our son Prince Hwangju on the throne.

So Minister Gang was right about you all along.

You said yourself that it would be wrong,

that a Wang must preserve the Imperial line.

Were they all lies?

Yes.

I couldn't bring myself to say how I really felt.

But why does it have to be a Wang?

Why does the birthright to the throne have to be limited to the paternal line?

You are the ruler of this empire anyway.

Instead of putting your nephew on the throne, put your next of kin on the throne.

If his surname is a problem, let our son change his surname to Wang.

That's absurd.

You dare suggest defying the tradition of this land?

Do you really believe the ministers would accept this?

That's completely up to you.

You broke with tradition when you changed

the long-established sharecropping system against the fierce opposition of the ministers.

That was an unavoidable decision to protect the people of this state.

This is completely different.

No, it is not. This is for the people as well.

Daeryangwon is the son of Gyeongjuwon whom the Sillan descent officials tried

persistently to bring to the throne.

It's in the people's best interest

to put your son on the throne and build political stability.

Stop talking gibberish!

Be honest for once.

You just want the Imperial line of Goryeo to be yours!

It's partly true.

I hated being looked upon with scorn because of my Jurchen background.

I hated not being able to see my own son any time I wanted to.

I wanted to stand proud before the men that condemn our relationship

as the father of the Emperor.

Is it wrong for a man to have such desire?

Leave. Leave this instant!

Think about what we went through together on the battlefield and in Liao.

I know your dream better than anyone.

Please do not forsake me.

Only I can help you realize your cherished dreams.

I do not want to hear this.

Get out of my sight this instant!

Above all, I love you.

Do not turn me away, Your Highness.

A terrible tragedy will strike if you do.

There is no tragedy greater than this.

I never want to see you again, so get out and stay away from me!

Let us talk openly about what we should do about this.

What is there to talk about when we know what the Emperor has done?

He must abdicate the throne.

Who do you have in mind as his successor?

Prince Daeryangwon of course.

No.

Prince Daeryang is young as well,

so the Empress Dowager will continue to hold power as a regent.

Then the Empress Dowager's sharecropping policy will be enforced.

We can't have that, absolutely not.

I still find it hard to believe this true.

Couldn't the Empress Dowager be behind this?

What do you mean?

Empress Dowager could've staged this whole thing to drive

the Emperor out because he is fighting her on the sharecropping issue.

That couldn't be.

I know she can play hardball, but we're talking about her own son.

Besides, his lover Yu Han Gan was arrested and put in jail.

She can have anyone arrested and extract any kind of confession she wants.

Whether it was a set up or not, the Emperor confessed the perversion himself.

We do not have an option of letting it slide.

Prince Daeryang is not such a bad choice actually.

His father is Prince Gyeongjuwon, so he is of Shillan descent.

Background is unimportant right now.

Gang Gamchan has been Prince Daeryang's guardian angel all this time.

That's right.

If he takes the throne, Gang Gamchan will become powerful,

and since Gang is in cahoots with the Empress Dowager,

our position will be weakened.

Exactly.

Whether he committed sodomy or not,

it's in our best interest for the Emperor to stay in power.

Or at least stop the sharecropping system reform before he leaves the throne.

Your Majesty, you must take your herbal potion.

That's all right.

Then...

Please have some porridge.

[Goh Hyun]

You can't get better

consuming nothing but water.

I said that's all right!

Why did you want me here?

His Highness has been refusing his meals since his return from the temple

causing his health to deteriorate.

Then summon the physician.

And herbal potion has been prescribed, but His Majesty is refusing that as well.

Leave us.

Yes, Your Highness.

Which would you like to eat?

Empress.

The herbal potion or the porridge?

Please look at me.

Herbal potion it is. Please drink it.

I am in this condition because I've been taking osuksan.

The narcotic that the former King was addicted to?

How? Why?

I had to.

I couldn't sleep with a man with a clear head.

So my condition can't be relieved by an herbal potion.

I just need to endure the pain.

Why are you doing this to me?

Empress...

How much more will you hurt me?

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, Empress.

Are you really?

Are you really sorry?

Yes.

Then get through this.

Empress.

Let's eat. You have to eat to get through this.

Does this mean you forgive me?

I can't live without you.

So get through this so you can heal my broken heart.

Empress...

Please eat; you need strength to fight the addiction.

How are you holding up?

You achieved a huge task.

[Mun In Wui]

Hang in there,

and Commissioner Kim will get you out.

You don't have to mind me anymore.

What do you mean by that?

I don't have the

[Yu Han Gan (Official of Hanmoon Temple)]

strength to kick and scream anymore.

Things are not that grim.

Once this thing is sorted out,

the commissioner will get you reinstated in a higher post.

So you must never tell anyone about your connection to the commissioner.

Do you understand?

It's too late for that.

I've already told the Emperor everything.

What? Like what?

That it was the Commissioner Kim that ordered me to seduce him.

Are you out of your mind? Why would you do such a thing?

I could not deceive the man that I love any longer.

You are out of your mind!

First you seduce the Emperor,

and now you try to destroy the man whom you owe your life to with this lie?

Lie?

You'll say anything to avoid death. But no one will believe your words.

I won't mention the commissioner again.

So let me see the Emperor one more time before I die.

I beg you.

Was it you?

Did you tell the commissioner Prince Daeryang's location?

Answer me!

Did you listen in on my conversation and tell Commissioner Kim where he was?

[Sa Illa]

Forgive me, Your Highness.

How could you?

I trusted you with my life. How could you betray me?

Your Highness, I acted in fear of what Prince Daeryang might

do to your relationship with the commissioner.

I have not turned my back on you.

Silence! I will not hear your excuses.

Your Highness, Prince Hwangju is your son.

Why would you choose Prince Daeryang over your own son and the man you love?

It's bad enough that you've been a spy for the commissioner.

Now you dare try to meddle in state affairs?

How dare you?!

I will consider our past relationship and spare your life.

So leave the palace immediately.

Your Highness!

Leave now before I change my mind! I never want to see your face again!

What are you struggling about?

You're at a dead-end. The time has come.

Why are you waiting for?

I-I don't want to betray the Empress Dowager.

I really love her.

I don't want to lose her!

Fool.

Think of all those who died for this cause.

How can you be so weak?

You'd give up the great enterprise over a woman?

Yes. That's what I really want.

I want to give up everything and live a quiet life with her, raising our child.

Don't be a fool. It's too late for that.

She knows that you tried to kill Prince Daeryang, so you have no place in her life.

She is already renounced you.

So will you die a useless death, or will you fulfill the cherished

desires of your grandfather, your father and all those that died for you?

If the Empress Dowager would forgive me,

I want to forget everything and live a normal life.

Why did you put this great burden on me?

I don't want to hurt the woman I love.

I would throw it away if I could!

[Hogyeong: Present day Pyongyang]

Kim Chi Yang made another attempt to kill Prince Daeryang?

Yes, General.

[Yu Chungjeong]

He was trying to eliminate the prince so

he could bring his own son to the throne.

So that was his objective after all.

[Gang Jo (Chief Commander of the Northwestern Armies)]

This whole thing was about the throne.

Do we have proof this time?

Yes, sir.

Minister Gang identified one of Prince Daeryang's attackers

as Kim Chi Yang's subordinate.

He did it.

Minister Gang finally got the proof we need.

Yes, Kim Chi Yang won't weasel out of this one.

And Minister Gang said Kim Chi Yang will attempt an overthrow if he runs out of

options, so you must be prepared for it.

Two Armies and Six Guards

have Gaegyeong covered.

Our problem is the border.

Kim Chi Yang meeting with

the Khitan Prime Minister could not have been a chance encounter.

Send scouts into enemy camp, sir?

Yes.

Watch the Khitan carefully for any unusual moves.

And alert me immediately if you detect any signs of hostile action.

What is this about, sir?

[Yi Hyunoon]

It's not a war, is it?

Just follow your orders.

Yes, sir.

[Imperial Palace of Liao]

What's your take on the

Prime Minister's claim about creating

[Shengzhong of Liao (6th Ruler of Khitan)]]

internal division in Goryeo?

Your Majesty, I believe it is a contrivance to stop

your conquest.

[Xiao Baiya (Viceroy of Eastern Capital)]

How could he possibly

create internal division in Goryeo from here?

That's right, Your Majesty.

Prime Minister Han has

always been against war.

[Yelu Dilu]

And he has become more cravenly with age, making him seek only safety.

What's more he is Han Chinese.

[Yelu Pennu ]

He has enjoyed power and prestige under the protection of the Empress Dowager,

but you might wish to reconsider his proper place in the future.

That's rather harsh.

He is largely responsible for the stability and development of this empire.

We may have our differences, but he is a great man.

But you must also acknowledge that he is from an older generation.

Water must flow. Stagnant water will rot.

What's more

[Su No]

the Prime Minister's words cannot be relied on.

All of his past endeavors to create division in the Goryeoan court have failed.

Your Majesty, give him a chance to prove himself nonetheless.

But if nothing happens in Goryeo, despite his boastful talk, he should be punished.

The Imperial Court is growing increasingly hostile toward me?

[Han Derang (Khitan Prime Minister)]

Yes, Prime Minister.

[Yelu Dilie]

The war hawks have been rising in power since Xiao Baiya and Yelu Dilu returned.

It is to be expected since they were called by the Emperor.

Are you comfortable visiting me like this so often?

You might fall out of the Emperor's favor.

Don't worry, sir.

I have come to know that you care more about this empire than anyone.

And I hold the firm belief that you are on the right path.

I appreciate that.

But the Emperor and the others don't believe you're telling the truth.

Perhaps you should let them in on your conversation with Kim Chi Yang.

No, I can't.

If I do,

the Emperor is certain to launch a full scale invasion at the first sign of trouble in Goryeo.

I want to avoid an all out war.

But if it's unavoidable, we must wait until Dowager Cheonchu is out of the picture.

By the way, have we heard anything from Goryeo yet?

No, not yet.

Are you worried?

Yes, perhaps I am too old.

I become increasingly afraid of war.

But it's not the war itself but defeat at war that I fear more.

I may eventually be forsaken by the Emperor.

But I want to lay a foundation for victory before I leave.

That is the final service I can render for Great Liao.

Your Grace, there's something going on in the Imperial Palace.

[Lady Yunheung]

What do you mean?

I ran into a courtier at the market place, and he told me

that the Emperor announced he would be stepping down from the throne.

Why? For what?

I asked him why,

[Jo Sun ]

but he didn't have any other information.

This cannot be voluntary.

Empress Dowager Cheonchu is forcing him to leave so

she could put Prince Hwangju on the throne.

Sure, that woman is capable of anything.

Why she thinks and acts like she owns the world.

[Court Lady Jo]

Mother.

[Princess Jeong (Future Queen Weunjeong)]

I asked you to please stay out of political affairs now.

What happens in the palace does not concern us.

Don't be naive.

The only reason why we are alive now is because the Emperor is protecting us.

Once he is deposed and Prince Hwangju takes the throne,

we will not survive on this land.

This must be stopped. What do we do?

Call Lord Kim Shimon.

I must first find out exactly what is happening.

But will he agree to come here?

Oh, he'll come. He will have to come.

It's time to call Prince Daeryang back.

Do you really plan to depose the Emperor?

But Your Highness, all of the officials seem to oppose it.

They're only worried about themselves.

The Emperor does not want to be here, so we have no other choice.

Then we must first deal with Finance Commissioner Kim Chi Yang.

How can we call Prince Daeryang back when the man who tried to

have him killed is still in the court?

What am I to do?

Commissioner Kim is the father of my child.

I can't have him arrested and locked up without compromising my own morals.

That is why I can't reveal this to the officials.

Tell me, Minister Gang. What do you suggest that I do?

Then have Sa Gamun arrested first, Your Highness.

And once his crime is revealed without a doubt,

Commissioner Kim must be punished as well.

This is a matter of vital importance to the welfare of the empire.

I know this is hard for you,

but I cannot bring Prince Daeryang back otherwise, even if my life depended on it.

Forgive me, Your Highness.

I am to become the Emperor?

That's absurd, Master. It can't be true.

Why do you think they were after your life?

They were forces that do not want you on the throne.

But I don't want to be an emperor.

I'd rather shave my head again and become a priest.

This is your destiny.

Your were destined to become a ruler of Goryeo.

That's why I had you grow out your hair in the first place.

- But how could I dare... - It is destiny, I said.

You cannot defy it no matter how you try.

You must rise to the throne and

work through trials and tribulations to put the country on solid footing.

That is your predestined fate.

Arrest Commissioner Kim's right- hand man Sa Gamun, Your Highness?

[Yu Bang]

Yes.

Your Highness, why...?

Please don't ask details and just arrest him and his wife, Duyan.

And keep Commissioner Kim confined to his home.

Commissioner Kim?

Kim Chi Yang and offender Sa Gamun, come forth and receive the Imperial command!

Goodness gracious! What is this twiddle-twattle?

This is an Imperial command!

[Kim Hoon]

Call the offenders out at once!

Offenders? How dare you?!

[Yi Jujeong]

Do you know where you are?

Th-th-they are not here right now.

[Choi Ghi]

Tell us the truth. Where are they?

My Lord, you must make a decision. We're running out of time.

That's right, my Lord.

Yu Han Gan has confessed to the Emperor that you are behind his crime.

Your identity will soon be exposed.

If we don't act quickly, everything will go up in smoke.

Empress Dowager has expelled me as well. We do not have any other choice.

Contact the Prime Minister of Liao and request military assistance.

My Lord, then...

Pay close attention.

Sa Gamun, you will alert the soldiers and the warrior monks that the day has come.

Steward Mun.

Go to Yang Kyu and Kim Sukheung and tell them I must see them urgently.

And Sa Illa, I need you to bring Prince Hwangju back here from the palace

without the Empress Dowager finding out.

At last...

At last we will reclaim the glory of Shilla!

We will not disappoint you, my lord!

Prime Minister.

Sir, Duyan's carrier hawk delivered a message.

Kim Chi Yang is requesting assistance.

Yes?

I guess the time has finally come.

Sir, how many men are we to send?

Order Yelu Chy of Bonghwang Fort to rally an army of five thousand.

Pardon? Is that all?

Sir, perhaps we should alert the Emperor and deploy the entire Imperial Army.

We can't do that.

Our objective is to help Kim Chi Yang put his son on the throne, not to start a war.

Now deliver the command.

Yes, Prime Minister.

The Emperor slept... with... a man?

We don't know if it is really true,

but he has indeed announce he would step down from the throne.

Then who would succeed him?

Prince Daeryang is the most likely candidate.

Not Prince Hwangju but Prince Daeryang?

Yes, that�s what I'm told.

That means there is still hope for us!

Yes, Your grace!

You raised him when he was a child, so he is practically your son!

Heaven has not forsaken us, Your Grace!

Then I'll be leaving now.

And I'd appreciate it if you did not contact me again.

This has to be the last time.

If the Empress Dowager found out, I'd be killed.

Now that's not very nice.

You knew all about Kim Milhwa.

My father was executed and I spent years in exile, but you were unscathed.

I did not give you away although I was subjected to wretched punishment,

so owe me a debt of gratitude.

Don't you agree, Minister Kim?

General, a Khitan army is advancing toward us!

Is this true? They're marching south?

Yes, they left Bonghwang Fort

heading toward the Yelu River.

How many of them are there?

Approximately five thousand, sir.

What? Is that all?

Then it must not be a war, sir.

Prepare the troops at once. We are going to the Yelu.

Yes, General!

But shouldn't we alert the Imperial court?

Yes, but let them know that we do not need aid.

We will stop them ourselves. Who will to go Gaegyeong?

I'll go, sir.

It's not that I'm afraid of the Khitan. I'm quick on my horse...

Welcome, my brothers.

I've been waiting for you.

They disappeared?

Yes, Your Highness.

Not just Kim Chi Yang, but Sa Gamun and his wife are gone as well.

So we arrested his steward Yi Jujeong, he doesn't seem to know anything.

Very well. You may go.

Yes, sir.

Do you think they fled?

No, Your Highness.

My guess is they're preparing an overthrow.

Pardon?

They will take up arms and attempt to seize the palace!

Kim Chi Yang is much more dangerous then you think.

He killed Gang Jo's wife, Cheon Hyang Bi and destroyed the Emperor.

And he might be trying to bring down Goryeo.

Raise an army and capture the Imperial Palace?

Will you help?

We will gladly serve your great cause, sir.

Give me your command.

Take your army to Shiwangsa at once and apprehend Kim Chi Yang!

Khitan are marching to Goryeo?

Yes, Your Highness.

He called in a foreign enemy!

We are completely surrounded by Kim Chi Yang's army!

Are you saying we can't even call for help?
