[Episode 3]

She is my wife's cousin.

She has nothing to do with this, so let her go.

I lost the assassin because of her.

Then, are you insisting on spilling blood for no reason?

I... I had only lost my way.

Please believe me.

Why should I?

I don't know you.

So.

The palace guards are everywhere. They will catch another assassin.

Then you will know she has done nothing wrong.

Until then, for my sake...

let her go.

Are you all right?

Over there... there are many people.

They are all dead.

Dead?

They are all wearing those masks.

I should never have had the 4th Prince stand in my place.

He made his own choice to do this.

There is no need for you to feel sorry, Crown Prince.

Do not say such things.

I have put my brother in danger. If that is not wrong, what is?

He got injured, as well.

- Search the area now. - Yes!

What is it that you saw?

Did the dead get up and walk away on their own?

It was definitely here.

I know I'm right. They were stabbed from behind.

It was right about here.

- Where did they all go? - They were killed?

By whom?

- Tell me who it was. - How am I supposed to know?

There was definitely a gang of assassins.

The leader of the assassin gang killed off his own group.

It wasn't the palace guards?

Did you get any reports?

Seeing as how he took the bodies, they planned this out very well.

That man was our very last witness.

He has died without a trace now. What do you plan on doing?

Still...

I could not let Soo get hurt.

Once it gets bright out, I will look for tracks.

Let's get you treated for now.

It's done now. Let's go back.

He's always saying he'll kill me.

Every time I see him, he says that he's going to kill me.

I was only going to return something that he left behind.

Soo.

It's going to be okay.

Oh my.

What if he really kills me?

He told that man to kill me before, too. He just said to kill me.

He must have no tears or blood at all.

What did I ever do wrong?

Soo, everything will be fine.

That's enough now, Soo. It's all okay.

Stop now, okay?

Stop crying now and let's go home.

It's okay.

Where is the Crown Prince?

I am here, Your Majesty.

So.

Everything was ruined because he got involved.

We should've been congratulating you on becoming Crown Prince tonight.

We neatly tidied things up.

There are no assassins who are still alive.

The king will be unable to abdicate his throne for the time being.

Let's be satisfied with that.

I am surprised that So stood in place of the Crown Prince.

Choi Ji Mong is also difficult to predict.

The two of them most definitely have a relationship that no one knows about.

It's just as Jung said.

So must have learned martial arts.

The Kangs would not have taught him.

I need to know who he has met and what card he has up his sleeve.

Maybe if Choi Ji Mong is connected...

it could mean that the king is connected.

However, they say that no one ever went to see him while he was in Shinju.

Keep a closer eye on him.

We should know what he is thinking in order to chase him out or make him ours.

Do not forget.

Goryeo must belong to one of my sons.

This is not a job for you.

It is not something a servant can do either.

How long do you plan on staying in Shinju?

It would be good if you stayed in Songak like the others

and learned from the teachers.

I'm different than Wook.

I prefer to live catching animals in the mountains.

You've become adept at hiding your inner thoughts.

That's good enough.

Make yourself comfortable and get treatment.

I'll let the servants know.

Yeon Hwa.

I have often wondered what kind of woman you had grown up to be.

What would you have done if you had gotten seriously injured?

And why?

Why were you in that forest?

Well, the thing is...

I got lost.

They were people trying to kill the Crown Prince.

- It's a relief she's alive. - That's what I'm saying!

I felt that I was very lucky for the first time today.

The fact that I only got hurt this much is like a miracle.

Are you serious?

- Go and rest. - Okay.

I'm not finished yet.

Thank you for saving Soo.

I apologize for always being a burden to you, Your Highness.

What do you mean burden?

I have never thought of her that way.

In fact, she is a source of happiness.

She makes you happy?

This a very heavy household, is it not?

When people come to me, they are always speaking of hardships.

They want so much from me.

But Soo is not like that.

She steps up to say she will do everything on her own.

It makes me happy to see that.

It is a breath of fresh air.

I wait until I can see her again.

I am thankful that you care so much for Soo.

Stop right there.

What is it?

What now?

I really told you everything I know.

I was busy running away. What more could I have seen?

People with swords stabbed the people with masks from behind.

It was all of a sudden.

Almost as if... as if they had planned it beforehand.

Think harder. Remember everything.

Do it now!

That is enough now.

Fur outfit.

Everyone was wearing black clothes.

There was one man wearing fur.

He told them all to kill them.

Did you see his face? What did he look like?

I didn't see his face.

He was definitely their leader.

That's how it seemed.

Who else knows about this?

No one else is bothering me besides you.

Forget everything you saw in the forest.

Forget that man.

Yes, Hae Soo. He is right.

You will only be safe if no one finds out that you saw.

Then, can I leave now?

You.

Don't show up in front of me again.

What did I do wrong?

You told him to kill me.

You even said you'd kill me yourself.

Then, am I supposed to do nothing?

I should do whatever I can to live. Am I supposed to just die?

Soo.

Is it a crime... to want to live?

Everyone wants to live.

Why are you picking on me?

You terrible jerk!

I think it would be best to leave the lights on and sleep.

You went through something scary, so it will help ease your dreams.

Are you okay, Prince Wook?

Me?

Yes, you.

Because of me...

you killed a man.

I'm worried that you might have a bad dream.

You might get post-traumatic stress or something.

I can't get bad dreams every time something like this happens.

How difficult would that be?

Are you saying this happens often?

Then, you kill people...

I was 11 years old.

When I first took a life...

I was 11 years old.

A thief entered our quarters where Yeon Hwa and my mother were.

Just like before...

I used my dagger.

However, I did not have any nightmares.

I protected my family with my own hands.

I was happy.

I was proud.

If a prince can't even do that, then what good is he?

You still remember it though.

You can't forget it, so how can you be comfortable with it?

It's obvious you are just holding it in and living with it.

It is the burden I was born with, so I will have to endure it.

I won't latch on to you, so don't worry.

What?

I shouldn't weigh you down so that you can live lightly.

So, you don't need to worry about me.

I can live very well on my own.

You lost your memory.

Now it's been replaced by a lot of false courage.

By the way...

What is this stre... stress?

[Taejo 25th New Year (Year 942)]

The Crown Prince was attacked in the palace and in front of me, at that.

It was a clear attack on me, and was proof that this is powerful foe.

[Taejo Wang Geon]

Ji Mong, what happened to the tracking of the assassins?

The princes chased them, but we could not catch one alive.

We are examining the corpses.

We will find any leads that we can.

Your Majesty, the assassins were all acrobatic performers in Songak.

I will find out who let them into the palace.

You do that.

How is your injury?

It was not a large wound.

I got it treated at my 8th brother's home.

What is the reason you stood in the Crown Prince's place?

Your life was in danger.

Crown Prince Moo saved my life 15 years ago.

That is why I want to stay in Songak and find out who is behind this plot.

You?

If you will permit it, Your Majesty. I will find out who is behind it.

All right.

Ji Mong.

Inform Shinju that So has some work to do on my behalf.

He will be returning later than expected.

I am sure they will have no objection.

You know our 4th brother?

Do you really think he didn't get training in martial arts?

During the ritual, he was like this and this, so...

It's his skill from dealing with animals.

Don't let him get a big ego.

It wasn't the skill of a person who practiced by himself.

I'm certain he was taught by someone and was properly trained.

The Kangs of Shinju trained their hostage in martial arts?

Why would they?

If any of you hear anything, let me know.

It sounds amusing.

You want us to inquire about our 4th brother learning martial arts?

Baek Ah, you know many people. It would be easy for you to find out.

The only people who visit my home are musicians and women.

It won't be easy for me.

Did you not chase the assassins last night?

I did.

But I went the wrong way, so I didn't see any of them.

I didn't even see a rat.

I heard you went to the same forest.

I was hoping you had caught one of them, at least.

I regret it too.

If I had been there, would they have slipped away like that?

Your Majesty.

Are you celebrating the new year? You should enjoy yourselves.

You all suffered last night.

If any of you were injured, don't wait, and see a doctor.

We will do so. Do not worry.

Eun, why is there a bruise on your face?

This?

Oh, this...

There was a fight.

A fight?

A fight that would cause a prince to hurt his face?

How can the dignity of the royal family have fallen so low?

Who did it? Tell me at once.

Ah, that is...

Well...

The 10th Prince is coming with the punishment from the king, right?

Yes, it is usually carried out by the authorities.

The 10th Prince is insisting on coming himself.

He just wants to see for himself what happens to me.

You don't think they're going to cut my arms and legs off, do you?

I don't know.

The 8th Prince must have received news of this, right?

He must have...

Nothing will happen. Yes, of course.

Will I be okay?

Prince Eun! Prince Eun!

Your Highness! Wait!

Oh dear, were you waiting for me?

Do you have the king's punishment for me?

The king was in a rage when he saw this bruise on this great face of mine.

He told me to beat you immediately.

Why should I be beaten?

You did wrong first.

Oh! You left out the part about what you did wrong, didn't you?

Hey now, do you think I'm such a petty man?

I begged the king for forgiveness on your behalf

in a way you can't even imagine.

If a girl who hit the prince must be punished

what kind of a punishment must a man who got hit by girl receive?

It should be a saying recorded in history as a wise quote.

What do you think? You're thankful, right?

Well, I don't know why you were so generous with me.

Yes, I am so thankful I could die.

- Hey! - What now?

I... have something to say to you.

Well, so...

You can go on in now.

You should all go. Get going!

What are you trying to pull now?

I'm not going to pull anything.

I'm not a man who hold grudges like that.

Then what is it?

It's just...

Well...

So, what I'm saying is...

Has he possibly...

fallen for me?

"You were the first girl to ever treat me in that way."

Something like this?

I just wanted to say...

you were the first girl to ever treat me in that way.

What the heck?

What did you say?

I didn't know they've been using that line for over a thousand years.

That line is a great line.

A thousand years?

Anyway, it was my first time fighting so openly like that since I grew up.

Everyone, including my mother and grandpa

are afraid of me, and let me hit them.

I've never fought with anyone before.

It was fun.

Yes, then come by often.

I will fight you without holding back.

You want me to come by often to see you?

You did stop me from getting punished and having my limbs cut off.

That's the least I can do.

Today is our first day, then!

- There's a fight over there. - Where?

Hurry up!

There, there!

There must be a fight over there!

Next man, come on up!

Baek Ah! Baek Ah!

Baek Ah, Baek Ah!

Please let it go this once.

Don't even try it.

Then sell me that drawing.

Bring me a house, then.

Then... I won't let you get away with it either.

You're dressed in common clothes and came out to have fun too.

I am not!

The king ordered me to come out and draw pictures of the people.

You don't know anything. Just you wait.

Baek Ah.

Don't follow me! I'm going somewhere important.

You're just going to Wook's house!

Hey.

Hey!

- Thank you, Brother! - Stop right there!

I have many memories of our time together when we were younger.

Those days were like a dream.

I resent Wook quite a bit.

[13th Prince Baek Ah]

Maybe if he opened up his heart to you a bit more, Sister.

I told you not to call me Sister anymore.

Your brother will hear you.

Before you were my sister-in-law, I called you Sister.

I knew you before Wook did. He won't be able to say anything.

He is being good to you by pretending not to hear.

You should be careful.

I do not want to.

Once a sister, always a sister.

All right.

All right, all right.

Isn't that Hae Soo over there?

All right...

All right. All right!

All right.

It will not work out well for you.

You revealed your own crime!

You should not be looking at what a married couple is doing.

I will deal with it harshly.

Do you understand?

I do not understand.

I heard she hurt her head.

She seems completely different from the little I knew of her before.

Even that fight with the 10th Prince.

She is the most entertaining girl lately.

Her memory has not returned, but she is warmer than she was before.

- She surprises me often. - All right.

All right.

Though her nursing abilities have become more awkward.

That child...

she is very much like you, Baek Ah.

Why would you say such a mean thing?

Nothing holds her back.

She says things that no one thinks of.

She is very free.

She enjoys fun things.

She hates to lose and gets angry.

I would believe it if she were your sister.

Baek Ah, your sister is not me, but Soo.

Don't speak that way.

You know what my feelings for you are, Sister.

You know very well.

Myung Hee.

What do you mean they are all missing their tongues?

What would they have been promised, and by whom

that they would cut out their tongues?

Wouldn't a professional assassin group be willing to do so?

Like Gum Gye? Or Chil Sal?

It wouldn't be the Heuk Sal Wol...

I'm the only one thinking here.

You have to pitch in with your thoughts, as well.

It is Daegyuhwan Hell.

They cut off the tongues of those who commit murder or adultery.

This is a setback.

They already had no tongues.

What?

What if their tongues weren't cut out, but they didn't even have tongues?

I heard that there are fallen monks who use this kind of punishment.

Keep going.

Once the fallen monks are punished, they are excluded from the holy order.

He would use the punished men with no tongues as the assassins.

The assassins that were disguised as performers were let into the palace.

Then... who could be behind this?

Someone who has more than any other.

Someone who could meet with the fallen monks without anyone noticing.

Ji Mong, find out who went out into the city the most often in recent months.

Yes, Crown Prince.

What are you doing?

It was you, wasn't it?

You tried to kill Crown Prince Moo.

You crazy bastard. Don't try to accuse me.

Do you have evidence?

You used the assassins from the monks and killed them all.

- Isn't that right? - That is nonsense.

Let go.

Was it Mother?

What?

I asked you if Mother is behind this!

Don't you dare disgrace our mother!

Jung, you'll hurt yourself.

This one too.

This one is old as well.

Myung Hee, what is all of that?

The prince is donating some food and items

to a town hit by freezing weather.

Oh, I see.

Are you not going?

Me? I don't know.

The prince usually goes alone.

What? Then you should go with him.

You can help him and go out together.

It will be nice.

I'll do your makeup for you too.

I wonder if it will be okay.

This is for the eyebrows.

Is this powder? It is.

I had a dream.

I was selling makeup in my dream.

I was doing makeup for a lot of people like customers and friends.

It wasn't boring at all.

How should I put it?

It felt like I was someone important.

I liked the feeling of someone becoming special, thanks to me.

The feeling that I was needed...

It was a delusional thought that I could make someone happy.

Smell the fragrance.

The rose fragrance is nice, isn't it?

This is a good product for people who have trouble choosing the right color.

Hey!

Over here.

But, I helped make my friend pretty...

and she was going out to meet my boyfriend.

I had been completely betrayed.

The two of them lied to me.

They took everything I saved, including my house.

But I was so stupid and I didn't even get to say what I wanted to them.

You had a nightmare.

You should quickly forget a bad dream like that.

A nightmare?

You're right.

Maybe all of that is the bad dream.

Okay.

I'm not used to the makeup here yet, so I'm still a little awkward at it.

What do you think? You look beautiful, right?

How...

How did you make my complexion so healthy?

You had a talent like this?

Thank you.

Come here, kids.

Share it with each other.

Thank you.

Hey you!

Come here.

Come here, come here, come here!

Come here, you.

Is it okay to take your friend's food or not?

Are you going to do it again or not?

You're not, right?

Come on. Let's go.

Yes, please prepare that for me.

Yes.

I didn't know that you had an interest in these medicines.

After I arrived here...

I mean after I hurt myself, I'm happy to see something I remember.

Bombycis, mung beans, buttercups, and galangal root.

When did you learn all of this?

I don't even know all of this.

I made soap before.

Soap?

Oh... it's used for bathing.

It's a bathing aid.

These are all ingredients used to make skincare products.

If you use these to wash, it makes your skin very nice.

I should make one for Lady Hae.

This is the medicine for Lady Hae.

And this is the medicine for cuts that you asked for.

- Thank you. - Yes.

- Soo. - Yes?

Put this on.

A woman should not have a scar on her body.

Thank you.

I'm only worried the scar will get worse.

I can call a doctor if you don't want me to.

Lady Hae, the prince is coming.

Mom.

You must have cried a lot by now.

You don't need to do that. I'm doing fine.

Honestly...

my heart is wavering.

I tell myself that I shouldn't...

but, I'm being shaken.

I have found the assassin's hideout.

Who is the leader here?

Come out.

Can none of you really speak a word?

Who made such a disgusting place?

Who is it?

Are you in charge of this place?

These people were burdened by their sins.

They were punished by having their tongues cut off.

I have been tasked with watching over these men.

Then, you're saying all I have to do is get rid of you.

Who, exactly, are you doing this for?

Does your mother know about this, Your Highness?

This is a place where people should not speak.

A man who talks too much is here.

You have lived off of the queen.

So, die for the queen.

Ji Mong, are you sure this is the place?

Yes, I am certain.

What has happened here?

Put this fire out now! Find any survivors if you can!

Yes, Crown Prince!

Daegyuhwan Hell.

Who's there?

It is me, Mother.

How dare you come in here?

[Scarlet Heart: Ryeo]

Do not say I belong to you ever again.

Then, should I call you my "person"?

I thought I had lost you.

I thought I wouldn't be able to see you again.

I was so afraid.
