I believed that one day when I left the palace,
4
00:00:12,170 --> 00:00:18,120
you and I would be a family and live happily together.
5
00:00:19,810 --> 00:00:24,570
But how could you do this to me?
6
00:00:25,310 --> 00:00:32,220
You were nothing more than a stepping stone
on the path of a great enterprise.
7
00:00:33,980 --> 00:00:42,670
You were simply the means to an end.
8
00:00:45,270 --> 00:00:55,480
To be honest, every moment I
spent with you was torture.
9
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:00,680
And I...
10
00:01:02,380 --> 00:01:08,070
I really loved you.
11
00:01:12,900 --> 00:01:22,220
I'm sorry, but I never felt such feelings for you.

{\a6}[Episode 70 ]
13
00:01:42,740 --> 00:01:47,730
You betrayed my love,
14
00:01:48,770 --> 00:01:55,750
shattered my dreams and killed my son.
15
00:02:42,830 --> 00:02:44,530
You have to jump!
16
00:02:48,950 --> 00:02:50,400
Foreman Kim!
17
00:02:52,780 --> 00:02:54,290
Foreman Kim!
18
00:03:05,450 --> 00:03:10,690
Foreman Kim, can you hear me?
19
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,820
You can't die.
20
00:03:15,190 --> 00:03:20,730
You have to fight through this
and return to Goryeo with me.
21
00:03:22,490 --> 00:03:31,830
You can't die on foreign soil like this.
22
00:03:34,430 --> 00:03:38,740
How could I live knowing that I killed you?
23
00:03:40,530 --> 00:03:43,630
You must fight through this.
24
00:03:45,900 --> 00:03:53,290
Wake up and tell me that
you love me one more time.
25
00:03:55,540 --> 00:04:04,080
Because I...
I have feelings for you, too
26
00:04:25,650 --> 00:04:33,340
Thank you.
Thank you for giving me a son.
27
00:04:34,090 --> 00:04:44,920
Think about what we went through
together, on the battlefield and in Liao.
28
00:04:45,610 --> 00:04:51,170
I know your dreams better than anyone.
29
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,800
Don't forsake me.
30
00:04:54,810 --> 00:05:00,020
You can't achieve your cherished dreams without me.
31
00:05:00,030 --> 00:05:03,620
I do not want to hear this.
Get out of my sight!
32
00:05:04,510 --> 00:05:14,390
Above all, I love you.
Don't turn me away.
33
00:05:15,670 --> 00:05:25,990
A great tragedy will strike if you turn me away.
34
00:05:27,900 --> 00:05:30,740
There is no greater tragedy than this.
35
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,130
Foreman Kim!
36
00:05:51,290 --> 00:05:56,040
Foreman Kim!
It was a lie.
37
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,020
You were lying to me to make me forget you!
38
00:06:04,850 --> 00:06:06,470
Foreman Kim!
39
00:06:09,470 --> 00:06:11,190
I'm sorry.
40
00:06:12,290 --> 00:06:18,070
I never loved you.
41
00:06:18,740 --> 00:06:25,370
So... so forget about me.
42
00:06:28,660 --> 00:06:40,370
Empress Dowager, continue to build Goryeo...
43
00:06:42,370 --> 00:06:44,870
Don't give up.
44
00:06:46,140 --> 00:06:49,910
You mustn't give up.
45
00:06:50,330 --> 00:06:54,720
Don't die.
Don't die on me!
46
00:06:57,860 --> 00:07:05,280
I will seek forgiveness from Buddha...
47
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,290
Foreman Kim!
48

Foreman Kim!
50
00:07:39,810 --> 00:07:42,100
Empress Dowager!
51
00:07:55,450 --> 00:07:57,090
General Gang.
52
00:08:07,570 --> 00:08:09,210
Empress Dowager.
53
00:08:10,420 --> 00:08:14,260
Don't! Don't come closer!
54
00:08:15,250 --> 00:08:22,460
I want to be alone with him.
Keep everyone back!
55
00:08:32,750 --> 00:08:34,170
What?

{\a6}[Gang Gamchan (Minister of the Office of Ceremony)]
57
00:08:34,180 --> 00:08:38,690
Empress Dowager killed Kim Chi Yang herself?
58
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:40,600
Yes.
59
00:08:40,780 --> 00:08:44,680
But there are laws and procedures to follow.
60
00:08:44,690 --> 00:08:47,720
Why did she do this?
61
00:08:47,730 --> 00:08:54,600
I imagine she couldn't withstand her rage.
Can you blame her?
62
00:08:55,610 --> 00:08:59,470
{\a6}[Yang Kyu]
63
00:08:55,290 --> 00:09:00,040
Kim Chi Yang betrayed her, destroyed her son
64
00:09:00,050 --> 00:09:03,500
the Emperor and tried to bring Goryeo down.
65
00:09:03,510 --> 00:09:08,340
I'd want to kill him myself as well if I were her.
66
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,450
{\a6}[Ha Gongjin]
67
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,970
But that may not be all, General Yang.
68
00:09:13,980 --> 00:09:19,240
You saw how she mourned after killing him.
69
00:09:22,950 --> 00:09:27,940
Did you say General Gang is there right now?
70
00:09:28,930 --> 00:09:30,240
Yes.
71
00:09:33,410 --> 00:09:36,080
And the body?
72
00:09:36,890 --> 00:09:42,680
We moved it into a room for now, but we don't know what to do.
73
00:09:43,050 --> 00:09:47,510
He is criminal of high treason, so his body is not to be spared either,
74
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:51,190
but the Empress Dowager is there keeping vigil.
75
00:09:55,820 --> 00:10:03,800
He may have betrayed her, but he was her lover.
76
00:10:05,180 --> 00:10:09,300
{\a6}[Empress Sunjeong]
77
00:10:05,770 --> 00:10:08,790
I can only imagine how she must
78
00:10:10,100 --> 00:10:14,560
be feeling having killed him herself.
79
00:10:15,860 --> 00:10:19,690
Guibup Temple was built by my grandmother.
80
00:10:19,900 --> 00:10:25,720
{\a6}[Wang Song King Mokjong (7th Ruler of Goryeo)])
81
00:10:19,700 --> 00:10:22,640
Mother has special ties to that place.
82
00:10:23,350 --> 00:10:28,980
That Kim Chi Yang has driven her
83
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,850
to put an end to this there. That man...
84
00:10:32,990 --> 00:10:36,200
is putting a stake through my mother's heart.
85
00:10:36,610 --> 00:10:41,620
Your Majesty, perhaps we should go and bring her back.
86
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:50,700
Empress, she is not coming back.
87
00:10:52,290 --> 00:10:53,590
Your Majesty.
88
00:10:55,900 --> 00:11:04,130
General Gang will bring her back.
Don't worry, Your Majesty.
89
00:11:04,770 --> 00:11:10,660
No, Minister Gang.
She does not intend to come back.
90
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,860
That's why she killed Kim Chi Yang
at Guibup Temple where she
91
00:11:15,540 --> 00:11:18,670
can feel my grandmother's spirit.
92
00:11:20,500 --> 00:11:27,410
I will leave the palace as well now.
I will join my mother and take care of her.
93
00:11:28,900 --> 00:11:35,150
But Your Majesty, Prince Daeryang is due to arrive very soon.
94
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:39,290
You must preserve the throne for us until then.
95

{\a6}[Kim Chi Yang]
96
00:11:45,730 --> 00:11:47,800
You deceived me,

deceived the world and deceived yourself.

{\a6}[Empress Dowager Cheonchu]
99
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,350
How lonely and difficult it must have been...
100
00:11:58,680 --> 00:12:06,460
What's so important about the country's name
that you would choose such a wretched life...
101
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,300
when this is how it all ends?
102
00:12:16,770 --> 00:12:23,750
Your Highness? Your Highness, may I come in?
103
00:12:25,150 --> 00:12:29,330
No, I'd like to be alone.
104
00:12:40,070 --> 00:12:41,640

105
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,070
Please leave.

{\a6}[Gang Jo (Chief Commander of the Northwestern Armies)]

No, I can't leave.
108

Let me take you back, Your Highness.
109
00:12:56,210 --> 00:13:04,850
No one will condemn you for killing him.
We all wanted him dead.
110
00:13:05,810 --> 00:13:13,850
So you don't have to be sad.
You don't have to be angry either.
111
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:22,440
Let the Ministry of Punishment
deal with the body and come with me.
112
00:13:22,770 --> 00:13:31,560
No General Gang, I'm not
going back to the palace.
113
00:13:33,830 --> 00:13:38,160
Not going back? I don't understand.
114
00:13:38,890 --> 00:13:42,980
This country still needs you.
115
00:13:42,990 --> 00:13:48,650
Once Prince Daeryang arrives,
he will rise to the seat of Emperor.
116
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:56,930
It's over for me; there is no going back.
117
00:13:57,100 --> 00:14:04,310
No, you're wrong. You must continue
to govern the state as the regent
118
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:09,240
if you want to defeat the Khitan
and build a strong nation.
119
00:14:09,250 --> 00:14:12,410
You must.
120
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:28,530
Please General Gang, leave me be.
121
00:14:30,540 --> 00:14:38,530
I've exhausted my strength. It's over.
122
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,180
Your Highness,
123
00:14:45,180 --> 00:14:55,900
have you forgotten your vow to build
a mighty empire like Goryeo and Balhae?
124
00:14:57,770 --> 00:15:04,170
Have you forgotten about all of those
who died fighting for that dream?
125
00:15:09,380 --> 00:15:11,380
I'm sorry.
126
00:15:14,380 --> 00:15:19,720
You may be able to give up, but I can't.
127
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:27,390
My brother chose death for your cause.
128
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:35,940
How can you give up so easily?
You can't do this.
129
00:15:40,490 --> 00:15:47,560
General Gang, I've lost my right.
130
00:15:49,860 --> 00:16:05,540
I almost brought down the empire by
putting this traitor in a position of power.
131
00:16:08,530 --> 00:16:14,680
How can I possibly stay in the Imperial Palace?
132
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,590
You are not to blame for this.
133
00:16:18,100 --> 00:16:24,450
You were a victim in Kim Chi Yang's devious plot.

No.
136
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:46,280
I truly loved this man.
137
00:16:47,860 --> 00:16:54,390
And his love for me was genuine as well.
138
00:16:55,380 --> 00:16:58,710
No, that's not true.
139
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:09,150
I have taken his life... the traitor
who almost destroyed this country.
140
00:17:10,420 --> 00:17:13,340
But I still love him.
141
00:17:14,470 --> 00:17:19,710
Do you still think I have the right to stay in the palace?
142
00:17:21,270 --> 00:17:27,450
Do I still have the right to pursue
the dream of a mighty empire?
143

Shouldn't we go out there as well?

Yes, of course.
We must make ourselves noticed.

Are you really Lady Yunheung?

Yes, Your Highness.
Do you remember me?
164

so I'm afraid I have no recollection of you.
168
00:20:22,510 --> 00:20:27,050
But I do know you took care of me when I was a child.
169
00:20:28,030 --> 00:20:37,510
Yes, I raised you like my own.
You still have the same facial features.
170
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:44,550
I heard you were coming back, so
I came to see you, if only from afar.
171
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:49,990
I'm glad you did.
It's wonderful to meet you again.

Cousin Jeong?
177
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:16,850
Yes, Prince.
178
00:21:20,690 --> 00:21:22,710
It's wonderful to meet you again.
179
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:34,170
I must go now,
so visit me at the palace soon.
180
00:21:34,180 --> 00:21:36,920
Yes, I will.
181
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:18,900
Welcome, Prince. We've been waiting for you.
182
00:22:19,590 --> 00:22:24,120
Minister Gang, here we are again at the Imperial Palace.
183
00:22:24,940 --> 00:22:30,280
Come inside. His Majesty awaits you.
184
00:22:39,750 --> 00:22:45,020
I have been wayward and imprudent
and have failed to govern the empire well.
185
00:22:45,530 --> 00:22:51,740
Recently I've allowed a treacherous force
to rise and put the regime in great danger.
186
00:22:51,750 --> 00:23:00,510
For this reason, I've decided to abdicate
my throne in favor of Prince Daeryang.
187
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,800
Our regret is infinite, Your Majesty.
188
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:12,070
Your Majesty, I grew up in a temple
and have no knowledge of politics.
189
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:20,310
I am ill-equipped to lead the empire,
so please withdraw your command.
190
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:25,420
You possess qualities that make a good ruler.
191
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:29,740
So fear not and be confident.
192
00:23:30,820 --> 00:23:36,650
You speak kindly, but I
do not possess such qualities.
193
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:42,020
Obey me!
It is the Emperor's final command.
194
00:23:46,730 --> 00:23:52,260
Having brought harm to the regime, I will
be leaving the palace as soon as possible.
195
00:23:52,430 --> 00:23:59,310
So prepare the installation of
the new Emperor without delay.
196
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,800
Yes, Your Majesty.
197
00:24:16,250 --> 00:24:20,100
What kept you so long, sir?
198
00:24:20,110 --> 00:24:22,320
Why? Is there something wrong?
199
00:24:22,550 --> 00:24:25,670
Prince Daeryang is here in the palace.
200
00:24:26,530 --> 00:24:31,710
His Majesty has ordered his installation ceremony
to take place within a few days.
201
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,500
Where is Prince Daeryang right now?
202
00:24:35,510 --> 00:24:39,430
He's in the council hall with...
203

{\a6}[Choi Hang (Royal Undersecretary)]
205
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:59,270
General Gang, what kept you so long?
206
00:25:00,610 --> 00:25:06,020
Your Majesty, I request that you delay
Prince Daeryang's installation.
207
00:25:06,030 --> 00:25:07,950
What do you mean?
208
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:12,920
The Empress Dowager is refusing to
come back to the palace in a state of
209
00:25:09,950 --> 00:25:16,610
{\a6}[Guibup Temple: King Gwangjeong's Temple headquarters in Gaegyeong]
210
00:25:13,050 --> 00:25:17,550
self-abandonment after killing Kim Chi Yang
herself at Guibup Temple.
211
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:34,550
Please delay the enthronement until
she is able to sort out her emotions
212
00:25:35,050 --> 00:25:37,580
and come back.
213
00:25:37,590 --> 00:25:41,010
That's absurd, General Gang.
214
00:25:41,020 --> 00:25:43,460
It's bad enough as it is, that she ignored
215
00:25:43,990 --> 00:25:47,540
{\a6}[Kim Shimon (Minister of Domestic Affairs)]
216
00:25:43,470 --> 00:25:46,900
the law and killed Kim Chi Yang herself.
217
00:25:46,910 --> 00:25:50,180
But it's ridiculous to delay the
218
00:25:50,190 --> 00:25:53,070
installation of the new Emperor for her.
219
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,830
Like I said before,
220
00:25:55,840 --> 00:26:02,300
Empress Dowager will maintain the regency
no matter who rises to the throne.
221

{\a6}[Choi Wonshin (Vice Minister of the Office of Ceremony)]
222
00:26:02,310 --> 00:26:06,500
General, stop being so unreasonable.
223
00:26:06,510 --> 00:26:08,940
How could she continue to rule the
224
00:26:08,950 --> 00:26:12,620
state when she has had a child
with a traitor to the nation?
225
00:26:12,630 --> 00:26:13,800
She can't.
226
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,370
{\a6}[Choi Suk (Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel)]
227
00:26:13,810 --> 00:26:19,220
She has lost her privilege
to take part in the government.
228
00:26:19,230 --> 00:26:22,130
Watch your tongues!
229
00:26:22,790 --> 00:26:29,240
I warned you. I will not tolerate anyone
who condemns the Empress Dowager.
230
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:34,200
Now who wants to denounce the Empress Dowager?
231
00:26:34,450 --> 00:26:37,230
Step forward!
232
00:26:40,060 --> 00:26:42,550
Stop, General Gang.
233
00:26:43,310 --> 00:26:48,330
Set my mother free to do what she wants.
234
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,470
I can't do that, Your Majesty
235
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:56,730
I cannot let her give up.
236
00:26:56,740 --> 00:27:01,500
General Gang, my man,
I understand how you feel.
237
00:27:01,510 --> 00:27:05,820
But Her Highness has made up her mind.
238
00:27:05,830 --> 00:27:08,700
Respect her decision.
239
00:27:09,410 --> 00:27:11,750
I said I can't.
240
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:13,140
General Gang!
241
00:27:13,150 --> 00:27:17,730
There is nothing you can say to make
me give up on the Empress Dowager.
242
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,710
Not as long as I am breathing.
243
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:28,380
No one will drive the Empress Dowager
out of the palace as long as I am alive.
244
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:53,230
Dowager Cheonchu killed Kim Chi Yang herself?
245
00:27:53,870 --> 00:27:55,640
Yes.
246
00:27:58,940 --> 00:28:00,990
It's karma.
247
00:28:01,750 --> 00:28:06,510
She paid for her sins.
248
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:13,690
The good news is that this has hit her hard
and she's not coming back to the court.
249
00:28:14,470 --> 00:28:18,360
How could she? She'd
be shameless if she did.
250
00:28:18,530 --> 00:28:22,070
But the problem is Gang Jo.
251
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:30,070
He is raising his voice asserting
that she must remain in power,
252
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:34,890
and the Emperor nor Prince Daeryang
are able to suppress him.
253
00:28:34,900 --> 00:28:42,130
Isn't there anything you can do to
drive him out of the Imperial Court?
254
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:47,110
Like I said before, he is
in control of the military.
255
00:28:47,450 --> 00:28:53,970
And he is irrational right now, so there's
no telling what he might do if provoked.
256
00:28:54,810 --> 00:29:02,870
No, this might actually turn out to be good for us.
257
00:29:03,210 --> 00:29:09,110
The more he rants and raves, the further
he will fall out of favor with Prince Daeryang.
258
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,400
You are right, my Lady.
259
00:29:12,130 --> 00:29:17,160
Kim Chi Yang said this about him once.
260
00:29:18,220 --> 00:29:21,450
That Gang Jo is indeed a dangerous man,
261
00:29:19,940 --> 00:29:23,620
{\a6}[Mun In Wui]
262
00:29:21,570 --> 00:29:23,940
but he is actually an easy man to bring down
263
00:29:23,950 --> 00:29:26,880
because he is ignorant and simple-minded.
264
00:29:30,710 --> 00:29:34,300
We will discuss this more later.
265
00:29:35,780 --> 00:29:41,390
My Lady, I must go now and attend to the
preparations for the installation ceremony.
266
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,100
By the way...
267
00:29:44,730 --> 00:29:48,550
Do you know if I am invited?
268
00:29:50,890 --> 00:29:56,300
Be patient, my Lady. All in due time.
269
00:30:01,390 --> 00:30:10,180
My Prince, you will soon be on the throne,
so keep your heart magnanimous.
270
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:19,140
And don't hold General Gang Jo's hasty
actions in the council hall against him.
271
00:30:19,620 --> 00:30:24,000
Don't worry, Minister Gang, I won't.
272
00:30:24,010 --> 00:30:29,760
In fact, I was moved by his loyalty to Empress Dowager Cheonchu.
273
00:30:30,700 --> 00:30:36,380
Thank you for such kind understanding, Prince.
274
00:30:37,510 --> 00:30:44,580
I heard His Majesty is going to Guibup Temple
tomorrow without watching my enthronement.
275
00:30:44,730 --> 00:30:46,950
Yes, I'm afraid so.
276
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,440
Won't you stop him?
277
00:30:50,940 --> 00:30:55,410
Prince, please allow His Majesty to do as he wishes.
278
00:30:55,420 --> 00:31:00,490
The throne was truly a torturous place for him.
279
00:31:00,500 --> 00:31:04,120
And nothing will make him change his mind.
280
00:31:06,370 --> 00:31:13,740
Then I will go to Guibup Temple after
my enthronement and seek guidance
281
00:31:13,750 --> 00:31:18,300
from the Empress Dowager about governing the state.
282
00:31:18,310 --> 00:31:20,520
What do you think about the idea?
283
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,470
It is an excellent idea.
284
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:30,160
Empress Dowager was forced to
resign because of Kim Chi Yang,
285
00:31:30,170 --> 00:31:34,340
but there is much to learn from her.
286
00:31:35,670 --> 00:31:38,970
What do you think, Minister Choi?
287
00:31:39,550 --> 00:31:43,450
I agree with Minister Gang.
288
00:31:43,460 --> 00:31:48,040
Offer her comforting words and
allow her wisdom and experience
289
00:31:48,050 --> 00:31:52,250
to help you lead the empire.
290
00:31:53,550 --> 00:31:58,940
Thank you for agreeing with me.
I'm very relieved.
291
00:31:58,950 --> 00:32:00,650
Nonsense.
292
00:32:00,660 --> 00:32:07,140
You're seeking the Empress Dowager of your
own accord and inquiring about our opinion.

The future is looking brighter for Goryeo already.

you are like a father to me.

00:36:53,210 --> 00:37:00,390
I won't live for very long once she is gone.
346
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:07,090
But you're healthy and strong.
Please don't speak that way.
347
00:37:07,500 --> 00:37:16,740
The Empress Dowager and I are bound by fate.
Without her, I will die, too.
348
00:37:16,750 --> 00:37:23,950
And you must sever relations with me in order to survive.
349
00:37:27,020 --> 00:37:34,970
Don't annoy the Emperor.
You're too young to die.
350
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,990
His Majesty the Emperor!
351
00:38:02,170 --> 00:38:03,640
Emperor!
352
00:38:03,650 --> 00:38:05,180
Mother!
353
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:16,350
Mother, I heard about what happened
but I could not come immediately.
354
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:19,800
Forgive me.
355
00:38:23,170 --> 00:38:26,780
I'm sorry, Emperor.
356
00:38:29,210 --> 00:38:32,000
This is entirely my fault.
357
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:35,270
Entirely...
358
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:59,610
Then you didn't even see the
enthronement of the new Emperor?
359
00:39:00,450 --> 00:39:06,150
I thought my not being there would
actually make it easier on the Prince.
360
00:39:07,490 --> 00:39:11,080
Yes, you did the right thing.
361
00:39:11,090 --> 00:39:17,460
Empress Dowager, let us put everything
behind us and return home.
362
00:39:17,890 --> 00:39:21,030
We will take care of you.
363
00:39:22,580 --> 00:39:24,270
Thank you.
364
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:30,700
But can't go back to Hwangju.
365
00:39:32,070 --> 00:39:34,470
What do you mean?
366
00:39:36,550 --> 00:39:43,430
I took in a traitor and placed the regime in peril.
367
00:39:43,810 --> 00:39:49,620
How could I go home and face my ancestors?
368
00:39:51,590 --> 00:39:57,140
Then did you decide where you want to go?
369
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:03,830
I'm going to stay here for now and sort things out.
370
00:40:05,180 --> 00:40:07,570
What is your plan, Emperor?
371
00:40:09,190 --> 00:40:12,160
I will go where ever you want, Mother.
372
00:40:12,420 --> 00:40:17,070
I don't care as long as it's not the Imperial Palace.
373
00:40:18,970 --> 00:40:23,110
Are you that happy to be out from the palace?
374
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:27,740
Yes, Mother. I feel like I can finally breathe.
375
00:40:28,460 --> 00:40:31,900
I finally have desire to live.
376
00:40:36,900 --> 00:40:41,820
Let everything go now, Mother.
377
00:40:42,140 --> 00:40:50,680
Prince Daeryang, I mean the new Emperor,
will become a benevolent ruler.
378
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:58,440
Yes, I really hope so.
379
00:40:58,670 --> 00:41:07,740
Mother, I know you're hurting, but be strong.
380
00:41:09,350 --> 00:41:17,360
I will be a good son from now on and
make up for all the pain I've caused you.
381
00:41:21,980 --> 00:41:24,130
Thank you.
382
00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:51,340
{\a6}[Ahn Pae]
383
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:51,870
Rally the troops, General?
384
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:54,260
Yes.
385
00:41:55,290 --> 00:41:57,940
{\a6}[Noh Hui]
386
00:41:54,270 --> 00:41:58,650
You can't be talking about an overthrow
to put yourself on the throne...
387
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,850
I am not traitor like Kim Chi Yang.
388
00:42:02,500 --> 00:42:03,920
Then...?
389
00:42:05,270 --> 00:42:08,450
I've warned the civil ministers but they will not listen.
390
00:42:08,460 --> 00:42:13,930
I must suppress them by force and put pressure on Prince Daeryang to
391
00:42:13,940 --> 00:42:18,300
continue the Empress Dowager's regency.
392
00:42:20,020 --> 00:42:23,640
{\a6}[Yi Hyunoon]
393
00:42:19,210 --> 00:42:23,700
But sir, that's almost as bad as high treason.
394
00:42:23,710 --> 00:42:25,940
We could end up like Kim Chi Yang.
395
00:42:26,050 --> 00:42:31,070
This is not treason;
it's to protect the empire.
396
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:37,530
General Yu, are you with me on this?
397
00:42:37,970 --> 00:42:41,650
{\a6}[Yu Bang]
398
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,710
Of course, General.
399
00:42:40,720 --> 00:42:43,960
We've served the Empress Dowager
since Ahnyoongjin.
400
00:42:43,970 --> 00:42:47,630
Yes. We may only be in charge
of palace security right now,
401
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:51,300
{\a6}[Kim Hoon]
402
00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:49,600
but we're prepared to die for the
403
00:42:49,610 --> 00:42:53,020
Empress Dowager any time.
404
00:42:53,350 --> 00:42:57,650
And we won't have a problem
capturing control of the palace if
405
00:42:56,890 --> 00:43:00,170
{\a6}[Choi Ghi]
406
00:42:57,660 --> 00:43:01,120
General Yang Kyu and Kim Sukheung join us.
407
00:43:01,660 --> 00:43:04,670
Those two men will be going to the northern region tomorrow.
408
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:06,920
We have to do this without them.
409
00:43:06,930 --> 00:43:10,970
But you don't have to worry.
410
00:43:11,890 --> 00:43:14,850
The rest of the Two Armies
411
00:43:14,860 --> 00:43:17,650
and Six Guards will be joining us.
412
00:43:18,500 --> 00:43:22,800
Can you trust me and follow my lead?
413
00:43:22,890 --> 00:43:24,760
Yes, sir!
414
00:43:31,130 --> 00:43:33,730
The northern border, sir?
415
00:43:33,740 --> 00:43:39,920
Yes. The Khitan were routed in their
last attempted invasion by General Gang,
416
00:43:40,430 --> 00:43:45,620
{\a6}[Dae Dosu (Minister of Punishment)]
417
00:43:39,930 --> 00:43:44,340
but they could strike again any time.
418
00:43:44,490 --> 00:43:48,790
General Gang has refused to go back,
419
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:52,460
so I need the two of you to go
and defend the northern border.
420
00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:55,760
{\a6}[Kim Sukheung]
421
00:43:52,470 --> 00:43:54,060
Very well, sir.
422
00:43:54,070 --> 00:43:57,610
It was a lingering concern of mine.
423
00:43:57,620 --> 00:44:00,270
I also need you to split up on the way
424
00:44:00,970 --> 00:44:05,390
and strike a Jurchen tribal village
along the Guryeong River on the way.
425
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,490
May I ask why, sir?
426
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:17,590
We got a tip from Mun In Wui that
rebel stragglers are gathered there.
427
00:44:18,340 --> 00:44:23,140
We must ferret out the rebels and
wipe them out to avoid a future insurgency.
428
00:44:23,270 --> 00:44:27,470
I want you to leave early tomorrow morning.
429
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:29,570
Yes, sir.
430
00:44:44,770 --> 00:44:46,400
Are you happy?
431
00:44:48,930 --> 00:44:52,950
{\a6}[Duyan]
432
00:44:49,930 --> 00:44:55,610
Don't you miss your mother?
433
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:01,550
How about your father?
434
00:45:38,330 --> 00:45:39,550
Yes.
435
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,550
You're my son from now on.
436
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:47,300
My son...
437
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:52,340
My son...
438
00:45:55,700 --> 00:45:58,380
{\a6}[Prince Hwangju- Kim Jin]
439
00:46:08,830 --> 00:46:10,580
Take up arms?
440
00:46:10,860 --> 00:46:12,400
Yes.
441
00:46:13,900 --> 00:46:20,750
It's worth a shot with Yang Kyu and Kim Sukheung leaving the city.
442
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:25,280
{\a6}[Choi Sawui]
443
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:24,550
But General Gang Jo is here.
444
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:27,620
And there's no one that can stand up to him.
445
00:46:27,630 --> 00:46:29,620
That's right.
446
00:46:30,570 --> 00:46:33,890
{\a6}[Tak Sajeong]
447
00:46:29,630 --> 00:46:34,830
Besides, General Gang has a tremendous following.
448
00:46:35,770 --> 00:46:39,610
We could end up becoming the villains.
449
00:46:39,890 --> 00:46:49,570
But if Gang Jo's men turned against him,
it would be a different story.
450
00:46:49,580 --> 00:46:51,580
What do you mean?
451
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:55,000
Gang Jo, that mad man,
452
00:46:55,010 --> 00:46:59,880
has denounced the Emperor and Prince Daeryang in the council hall.
453
00:46:59,890 --> 00:47:02,470
Pardon? Is this true?
454
00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:07,110
He thinks of no one but the Empress Dowager.
455
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:10,490
To put it simply, he's out of his mind.
456
00:47:11,900 --> 00:47:16,720
I'm sure his men don't know about this.
457
00:47:17,020 --> 00:47:22,820
So I want the two of you to start spreading
rumors about him in the military base.
458
00:47:23,130 --> 00:47:29,560
Say that he might remove the Emperor from power
and take the throne himself if he isn't stopped.
459
00:47:29,990 --> 00:47:37,410
Then we will sit back and wait
for our chance. Do you understand?
460
00:47:49,890 --> 00:47:55,770
I have never felt so comfortable and at peace.
461
00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:58,440
How about you?
462
00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:02,490
I feel the same, Your Majesty.
463
00:48:03,020 --> 00:48:08,820
There you go again,
please just call me "husband".
464
00:48:09,620 --> 00:48:17,860
Yes, Husband. It makes me
happy to see you happy.
465
00:48:19,340 --> 00:48:23,070
But I'm concerned about Mother.
466
00:48:24,540 --> 00:48:29,010
We will help her to get back on her feet.
467
00:48:32,670 --> 00:48:39,400
Wife, I want to be a farmer wherever
we end up settling down.
468
00:48:39,410 --> 00:48:40,890
Is that all right?

00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:44,220
Is what all right?
470
00:48:46,150 --> 00:48:51,790
Our hands will get dirty working the land.
Are you up for it?
471
00:48:53,650 --> 00:48:55,720
No.
472
00:49:00,450 --> 00:49:03,250
You can get your hands dirty.
473
00:49:04,030 --> 00:49:09,560
I'll prepare your mid-day snacks and
bring them out to you in the fields.
474

Would that be fair?
475
00:49:12,230 --> 00:49:17,590
Yes, it's fair. Just feed me my three meals a day.
476
00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:24,560
I'll till the land, gather firewood,
and be a farm servant!

Proceed to the Jurchen village and
make a clean sweep of the stragglers.

If you find any key players, arrest them
and transport them back to Gaegyeong.

Is the woman Duyan?
520
00:56:13,570 --> 00:56:17,510
Answer the question, now!
521
00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:25,740
Captain Yu, was that necessary?
522
00:56:26,460 --> 00:56:29,480
{\a6}[Yu Jong]
523
00:56:25,750 --> 00:56:31,890
Colonel, this is the only way to handle Jurchen.
524
00:56:32,270 --> 00:56:33,960
Answer the question!
525
00:56:33,970 --> 00:56:36,300
Was it Duyan?
526
00:56:39,510 --> 00:56:42,160
Yes!
527
00:56:51,150 --> 00:56:54,880
Who is the child she was carrying?
528
00:56:54,990 --> 00:56:56,810
It's her son.
529
00:56:57,710 --> 00:57:01,820
That's not true. I'll tell you the
truth if you promise not to kill me.
530
00:57:01,830 --> 00:57:04,290
Keep your mouth shut!
531
00:57:04,300 --> 00:57:05,390
Silence!
532
00:57:06,050 --> 00:57:08,480
I am not a Jurchen.
533
00:57:08,490 --> 00:57:10,380
I'm a Goryeoan soldier in the Six Armies.
534
00:57:10,390 --> 00:57:11,980
Please spare my life!
535
00:57:13,050 --> 00:57:14,440
That child...
536
00:57:18,730 --> 00:57:21,780
That child is Prince Hwangju.
537
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:29,850
What?
What did you just say?
538
00:57:30,190 --> 00:57:35,650
That child is Prince Hwangju.
They switched him with Duyan's son.
539
00:57:36,030 --> 00:57:37,870
Please spare my life.
540
00:58:10,620 --> 00:58:14,030
Prince Daeryang's prompt installation is indeed important,
541
00:58:14,410 --> 00:58:18,460
but the Imperial House needs a mistress.
542
00:58:19,340 --> 00:58:28,810
I think it is equally imperative that we find an
Empress to fill the role of the nation's mother.
543
00:58:30,350 --> 00:58:33,870
{\a6}[Chae Choongsun (Minister of Investigation)]
544
00:58:29,890 --> 00:58:32,580
Yes, of course,
545
00:58:32,830 --> 00:58:35,710
but did you have someone in mind?
546
00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:44,190
I think Lady Yunheung's daughter,
Princess Jeong, might be a suitable candidate.
547
00:58:44,780 --> 00:58:46,620
That's out of the question.
548
00:58:47,310 --> 00:58:48,990
Why?
549
00:58:49,130 --> 00:58:50,920
You know exactly why.
550
00:58:51,450 --> 00:58:54,840
Lady Yunheung was connected to the Kim Milhwa conspiracy,
551
00:58:54,850 --> 00:58:59,000
and her father Kim Won Soong was executed for high treason.
552
00:58:59,010 --> 00:59:03,690
How could her daughter be considered for the seat of the Empress?
553
00:59:03,700 --> 00:59:08,550
But those were all results of attempts
to resist Dowager Cheonchu.
554
00:59:09,310 --> 00:59:13,520
Above all, Princess Jeong is King Seongjong's daughter.
555
00:59:13,530 --> 00:59:16,500
There is no better bloodline to choose from.
556
00:59:16,510 --> 00:59:23,720
And this government must revert to
the King Seongjong-era in the future,
557
00:59:23,730 --> 00:59:26,600
so Princess Jeong is a perfect candidate.
558
00:59:26,610 --> 00:59:28,580
I agree.
559
00:59:28,780 --> 00:59:36,150
It would be unfair to condemn
the daughter for her mother's crime.
560
00:59:37,790 --> 00:59:40,570
{\a6}[Hwangbo Yui (Vice Minister of Finance)]
561
00:59:37,540 --> 00:59:40,760
I'm inclined to agree.
562
00:59:40,770 --> 00:59:48,320
And I heard she was a woman of high virtue,
so she may very well be suitable.
563
00:59:48,970 --> 00:59:54,260
Virtue is not all that she possess;
she is also a woman of beauty.
564
00:59:54,950 --> 01:00:00,700
No, a child of a criminal of high treason
cannot be made an empress.
565
01:00:00,710 --> 01:00:03,390
Then you shouldn�t be here either.
566
01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:07,770
You were as close as kin to Dowager Cheonchu,
an enemy of the state.
567
01:00:07,780 --> 01:00:09,730
Watch your tongue!
568
01:00:09,740 --> 01:00:11,540
How dare you call the Empress Dowager
an enemy of the state?!
569
01:00:11,630 --> 01:00:14,310
She had a son with an enemy of the state,
so that makes her an enemy of the state!
570
01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:16,220
What?
571
01:00:19,390 --> 01:00:22,030
What is the meaning of this?
572
01:00:24,270 --> 01:00:27,680
You're instructed to return to your homes.
573
01:00:28,270 --> 01:00:33,750
The Imperial Palace is off
limits to you until further notice.
574
01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:37,430
General Gang, what is the meaning of this?
575
01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:41,020
Who do you think you are giving us orders?
576
01:00:41,030 --> 01:00:43,890
Shut your mouths and leave at once!
577
01:00:43,900 --> 01:00:47,120
General Gang, what has gotten into you?
578
01:00:49,270 --> 01:00:54,310
All of you leave except General Dae.
You can stay if you wish to die.
579
01:01:01,600 --> 01:01:09,130
I couldn't come sooner because you left when
we were preparing for the new administration.
580
01:01:10,780 --> 01:01:16,480
Why did you come?
You must have a million things to do.
581
01:01:16,490 --> 01:01:21,070
I couldn't stay away.
We've been through so much together.
582
01:01:21,970 --> 01:01:29,090
Aren't you going to attend the installation ceremony?
583
01:01:29,950 --> 01:01:35,640
My presence will only put a
damper on the joyous occasion.
584
01:01:36,300 --> 01:01:40,700
I should leave before the new Emperor rises to the throne.
585
01:01:42,610 --> 01:01:45,840
Where... will you go?
586
01:01:46,430 --> 01:01:48,890
I'm thinking Choongju.
587
01:01:49,270 --> 01:01:53,650
Why not Hwangju?
588
01:01:54,990 --> 01:02:00,990
I have considered that, but I am
too ashamed to return to Hwangju.
589
01:02:02,850 --> 01:02:09,100
But you don't have any ties in Choongju.
590
01:02:10,470 --> 01:02:15,070
I heard my grandmother was
very close to Taejo's third consort,
591
01:02:15,080 --> 01:02:17,740
Empress Shinmyeong, when they were alive.
592
01:02:18,260 --> 01:02:26,280
I may not be the most welcomed guest there, but they won't turn me away.
593
01:02:30,950 --> 01:02:35,040
General Gang, I have a favor to ask.
594
01:02:35,650 --> 01:02:38,290
Anything.
595
01:02:40,670 --> 01:02:44,660
It's not my place anymore to get involved,
596
01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:48,300
but about the sharecropping policy
597
01:02:48,400 --> 01:02:50,680
please urge the new Emperor
598
01:02:50,690 --> 01:02:53,540
to follow through with it.
599
01:02:54,690 --> 01:03:02,470
I will try my best, but it
won't be easy, Your Highness.
600
01:03:03,310 --> 01:03:04,750
I know.
601
01:03:05,250 --> 01:03:09,810
Ministers will oppose it even more
fiercely after what's happened.
602
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:15,240
But lowering the sharecropping rate is
the only way to defend the country
603
01:03:15,250 --> 01:03:18,540
from foreign invasion and
bring relief to the people as well.
604
01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:20,830
You do know what I'm saying, right?
605
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:24,840
Yes, Your Highness.
606
01:03:32,140 --> 01:03:33,480
What?
607
01:03:33,830 --> 01:03:38,120
You mean you're doing this to
bring the Empress Dowager back?
608
01:03:39,460 --> 01:03:45,400
Yes, I will capture the palace and put pressure on Prince Daeryang
609
01:03:45,410 --> 01:03:47,200
to accept the Empress Dowager's regency.
610
01:03:47,210 --> 01:03:53,790
General Gang, this is reckless.
This could be seen as high treason.
611
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:56,810
I don't care.
612
01:03:57,490 --> 01:04:01,330
We need the Empress Dowager
to keep the country strong.
613
01:04:02,580 --> 01:04:07,990
Just give me your answer,
are you in or are you out?
614
01:04:13,950 --> 01:04:17,390
General Gang Jo has taken over the palace?
615
01:04:17,400 --> 01:04:21,490
Yes, you must rally the troops at once.
616
01:04:21,780 --> 01:04:26,260
General Gang? This can't be true.
617
01:04:26,740 --> 01:04:32,270
There is no mistake. He's trying to
bring Dowager Cheonchu back.
618
01:04:32,280 --> 01:04:36,520
We must quickly suppress him
and rescue Prince Daeryang.
619
01:04:52,150 --> 01:04:54,140
What brings you?
620
01:04:54,150 --> 01:04:55,320
Step aside.
621
01:04:55,330 --> 01:04:57,820
We're here to see the Prince.
622
01:04:57,830 --> 01:05:00,370
I'm sorry. You can't enter with weapons.
623
01:05:00,380 --> 01:05:05,530
Didn't you hear the order? Step aside!
624
01:05:05,540 --> 01:05:06,890
No, sir.
625
01:05:06,900 --> 01:05:09,390
Prince Daeryang is the future Emperor of Goryeo.
626
01:05:10,490 --> 01:05:13,280
Emperor my foot!
627
01:05:26,480 --> 01:05:28,030
General Gang.
628
01:05:28,340 --> 01:05:30,580
Take these men outside.
629
01:05:30,900 --> 01:05:32,260
Yes, sir.
630
01:05:32,390 --> 01:05:36,590
How dare you! This is the future Emperor!
631
01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:39,070
Prince!
632
01:05:41,500 --> 01:05:45,260
General Gang, what is the meaning of this?
633
01:05:45,270 --> 01:05:48,700
I've come to discuss an important matter
with you, at the expense of being insolent.
634
01:05:48,710 --> 01:05:52,540
Please do not make me do anything worse.
