[Episode 4]

Who's there?

It is me, Mother.

How dare you come in here?

Why are you here?

Do you know what I've done for you?

I made sure no one could kill you.

I erased all traces of you.

What are you saying?

I cannot understand you at all.

I've burned it all down.

Nothing will lead back to you, Mother.

You didn't kill them all, did you?

They only lived because of you.

They will not hold it against you that they died for you.

Did you think I'd tell you that you did a good job?

Did you want me to ask if you had injured yourself?

You're like an animal.

Leave!

You stink of blood and I cannot sleep.

- It was for you, Mother-- - Mother, Mother, Mother!

Hearing you call me "Mother" makes my skin crawl.

I do not wish to see you, so go! Go now!

I have always been curious.

Why doesn't Mother feel pity for me?

If you were my mother, you would care if I were injured.

So, why doesn't my mother ever look back at me?

I waited so desperately for it.

- Not once-- - You are not my son.

You are the son of the Kangs in Shinju.

It is my face, isn't it?

You sent me to be adopted instead of my older brother.

And you continue to turn your back on me.

It's all because of this face!

Do you know how my life was with the Kangs?

Once, they threw me into the biggest wolves den in Shinju.

I spent all night fighting the animals with their gnashing teeth.

Then I burned down the entire mountain.

I burned and killed all of them in there.

And I lived.

The revolting stench of burning flesh was still on my body.

The crazy Concubine Kang...

She wouldn't let me out of her sight, thinking I was her dead son.

Then she'd come to her senses, beat me, and lock me up.

She'd demand to know where her son was.

Asking why there was an unsightly monster...

It could be three days, or four.

I didn't get one sip of water, but no one came to check on me.

What about it?

A mother only recognizes a son who will make her shine.

You are my shame, disgrace, and flaw.

That's why I sent you away.

Thanks to you, I felt a sense of love and justice.

I will thank you for that.

Today is a day you will remember.

You threw me away, Mother.

However, I will not leave.

From now on...

you will have to look only at me.

Nonsense!

If you do something like this again, you'll never step foot in Songak again!

That impudent boy.

- Stop, stop! - All of it, be gone!

Please stop! Stop!

Move!

B... blood.

Yes, it's blood.

It's the blood of those I killed today.

Mothers build this for their children?

She shouldn't come to this thing. She should come beg to me!

Let go! Let me go!

Stop it now.

Do you want to die too? Let me go.

You're injured!

Do you have any other injuries?

I told you that I killed people.

Then, tell me why you killed them.

Did you... do it for fun?

Go.

Go!

This is that kind of a place, isn't it?

You have to wield a sword at a very young age.

You have to kill others if you want to live.

What can you do?

It's not a crime to want to live.

You probably won't be forgiven.

Still, I understand you.

How you're feeling right now...

it must be so miserable.

I think I can relate.

We chased the assassins the night of the ritual and we found no leads.

The person who hired them killed them to keep them quiet.

We found the temple that seems to be their headquarters.

They had already been killed and the temple was burning.

However...

the owner of that temple is...

That temple belongs to Queen Yoo.

Are you saying that I'm behind the assassination?

That I tried to kill the Crown Prince?

Anyone would assume so.

Queen Yoo.

Did you plot an assassination to kill the Crown Prince?

And bring in assassins?

I did no such thing.

Your Majesty, it is all my fault.

I never knew it was such a temple.

I was the benefactor of the temple in place of Mother.

Take my life, Your Majesty.

It is all my fault.

If a child has done wrong, then so has the mother.

I did it.

The killing and the fire in the temple...

I did it.

Are you saying you tried to kill the Crown Prince?

Your Majesty, the assassins live in a temple that the queen owns.

They impersonated princes and killed the assassins that night.

This is most definitely a trick to get the royal family to turn on each other.

Just as Wook said, I was afraid that Mother would be framed.

Forgive me for my poor decision.

You haven't done it. You do it.

It's your turn.

- I don't want to. - You do it.

- You do it. - No, I really don't want to.

Chae Ryung.

- Lady Hae. - What is it?

There are guests. You should be careful.

Everyone is trying to avoid taking a meal up to the 4th Prince.

How can you take the prince's meal so lightly?

Enough now.

Someone take up the 4th Prince's meal.

I do not want to see this again.

Me?

Look at you all. I'm a lady.

I shouldn't be delivering meals, right?

Huh?

Why? Why doesn't he eat in his room? Why make all this trouble?

I knew I didn't like him. He's going all out.

Gosh, I'm tired.

Oh my.

Yesterday, he made such a commotion.

He sure looks innocent from the back.

He actually looks lonely.

Your meal has arrived.

Leave it there.

You'd like to eat alone in peace?

You do that.

I have to take back the empty bowls.

Why don't you eat quickly?

About yesterday, you didn't see anything.

Be careful what you say.

I wouldn't talk about that even if I could.

I can't believe it, even though I saw it myself.

I have my own issues.

I don't have time to go around talking about other people.

Every time I see you, you tell me to forget I saw you.

By the way, is it better if you eat out here?

Oh, are you looking at the palace over there?

That will eventually be your home.

Why must you stare at it while eating?

If it is home, I should have a family.

Huh?

I heard that your mother, father, and brother all live there.

Now that it's come up...

why did you do that yesterday?

You! How did you get into the palace bath that day?

Oh, oh, oh, I...

Chae Ryung says that the chicken is the best.

Is the doctor not here yet?

Be strong, Myung Hee. Okay?

Soo, step outside for a moment.

What?

What is it, Lady? What is it?

Go on.

Take a second wife.

Wife.

I am a very weak person.

Whether it is running this household or giving you an heir

I have not done anything as your wife, Prince Wook.

Therefore...

Your Highness.

Marry someone else.

Or divorce me before that.

I must absolve myself of the wrong I've done to you.

That way, I can die and rest in peace.

I do not want to.

You must do so.

Also, I know.

Your Highness, you do not...

You do not love me.

Stop that!

What are you so worried about?

Whatever your worries are, you'll forget them once you play.

Here! I have a gift for you.

I didn't know what you liked

so I brought everything that caught my eye.

A top.

Cards.

This is something I really like. It's a slingshot that never misses.

You can have this too.

You've never seen this, have you?

It's a silk ball from the Qing Dynasty.

They say girls like it.

How old are you that you play with these things?

Then, what do you like?

Gosh... I'm already so frustrated.

Take all of this and go play over there, okay?

You need to share your burdens in order to lighten them.

Is it something I can't help with?

I am a prince.

Are you married?

Not yet.

How many are you going to have?

I haven't thought about that yet.

If your wife became sick and ill, would you bring in another woman?

No way!

I don't want to deal with the stress of having many wives like my father.

I'm going to find someone perfect and be with her for 100 years.

It would be nice if everyone were like you, Prince Eun.

You're unexpectedly pure.

She's moving quite fast on her own.

It's a bit fast for me.

Put this in the 4th Prince's room without anyone knowing.

Don't put it in an obvious spot. Put it where he has to search for it.

I don't want to.

If I run into the prince, I'm dead right on the spot.

It's his to begin with. He won't say anything if you get caught.

- Clean up while the prince is out. - Yes.

What are you doing in here?

- Are you... - No!

I wasn't stealing anything.

Tell me. What else were you stealing?

I was not... stealing.

Then, were you giving the prince a present?

Whip her.

Wait!

What did she do so wrong for you to do this?

She stole something important from the 4th Prince.

The hairpin?

I told her to put it there. She didn't steal it.

It isn't something you would be able to own.

It doesn't make sense.

That's because it belongs to the prince.

That's why I'm saying it was stolen.

Whip her again.

Then, hit me instead.

I can't give you the details, but Chae Ryung is innocent.

If you must whip someone, I told her to do it, so whip me instead.

Lady!

- Tie her up. - Yes.

Lady!

Lady...

Wook, you have to stop her.

She'll really end up getting hit.

Why should he stop her? The servants need to be taught a lesson.

I think that servant has been beaten enough.

Yeon Hwa's beatings can be quite severe.

Yeon Hwa...

Yeon Hwa!

Let go.

That's enough, now.

I'm in charge of running the household.

Let me go.

She belongs to me.

What did you just say?

I said that she belongs to me.

That hairpin is mine.

I should be the one who decides what to do with her.

So!

Soo did not steal it!

She told me she picked it up in front of So's room.

No... I saw her pick it up.

- Eun, even you? - Untie Lady Hae Soo.

Now!

You were too quick to act this time, Yeon Hwa.

Yeon Hwa, you did the right thing.

People like that need to be put in their place.

The mood here is terrible.

I should get going.

I'll be going, as well.

Let's go, Eun.

She should put ointment on her wounds.

- Soo! - Come on now!

Let go of me! I told you to let go.

Did you feel that sorry for her?

The brother I know is not someone who would stop me like this.

You don't have feelings for her, do you?

Yeon Hwa.

I am sorry if I have disrespected you.

You said she belongs to you.

I came to let you know, because you seem to be mistaken.

Nothing here belongs to you.

Not Yeon Hwa. Not Hae Soo.

They are all my people.

When it comes to my sister or my wife's cousin...

do not behave carelessly again.

Soo.

If you happen to be awake, I have left medicine here for you.

Don't forget to use it.

Also...

I hope you can forget everything that happened earlier today.

I'm sorry.

I was embarrassed to see you.

I pretended to sleep.

I know you did.

You're still in a lot of pain, aren't you?

It's not because I was whipped.

I'm more upset that I was treated in that way.

This place...

is it always this way?

Is it a place that disrespects you unless you're somebody's daughter or son?

A person can tie up another like an animal and hit them.

Goryeo...

is it like this?

I'm sorry I could not stop it.

However, I promise you this.

No one will ever be able to treat you in such a manner again.

Trust me.

Here I go again.

Think of Lady Hae.

If you let him come closer, you are hurting Lady Hae.

Oh my!

Ouch! Oh!

You bumped into me.

"She belongs to me"?

Why would you say that and create misunderstanding?

Don't you know how to say thank you?

I saved you from a beating.

Before you argue about that, you should thank me for saving you.

You were always acting like you wanted to kill me.

I am curious about why the winds changed.

Thank you.

Why did you even have that hairpin?

Where did you get it?

You dropped it at the bath in the palace.

This is all because I was keeping quiet about seeing your face...

So, I didn't say I saw your face.

I kept my promise.

Aren't you even scared of me?

You talk back to me every single time.

You don't seem like a person I should take lightly.

But I'm not scared of you anymore.

However, do not say I "belong" to you ever again.

Why not?

I'm a person, not an item or an animal.

How can you say I belong to you or anyone else?

Then...

Should I call you my "person"?

That's not it either.

Let's refrain from these burdensome titles.

Think of something else.

Look, isn't it the 14th Prince?

Let go of me!

- Oh. - Let me go.

I told you to let me go!

Oh no.

Isn't that the 14th Prince?

It is.

Hey!

You should go get someone.

- What about you? - The two of us aren't enough.

I have to follow them, so you go get help.

Hurry, hurry! Go now!

Let me go! Let go!

You don't know who you're dealing with.

Don't you care about your lives?

Prince Jung, you're the one who made my arm this way.

- You went too far. - I've never done such a thing.

That's true.

You only lost to me in a fight.

It was your mother who did this to me.

I knew nothing about that.

Therefore...

Let go of me. I told you to let go!

Is anyone there?

Oh no...

All right.

Accept it. Do it!

Hey!

Move it! Out of the way, you punks!

Get back, get back!

I'll pull out your intestines and make stew with them.

What do you think you're looking at? You're dead if you come any closer!

You're dead if you come closer! Don't look at me, you punk!

Get the hell away from us, you bastards!

My daughter-in-law looks sicker every time I see her.

She has suggested divorce to Wook.

- We should be thankful. - What?

Is that true?

I will not turn my back on my wife.

I want you to pretend you did not hear about it.

You need to consider marrying again for the sake of your future.

Are you suggesting I marry for obvious, political reasons

like our third brother did?

I will lose favor with the king.

There are many ways to avoid suspicion. subtitles ripped and synced by riri13

Yeon Hwa!

It's because of the Hae household that we can walk on Songak ground again.

I think it's only right that we do not forget to repay that debt.

- She is ill. - Mother!

Prince Wook! Prince Wook!

- Prince... - You.

Prince, something has happened to Lady Soo.

You must go now!

Oh!

You're okay, right?

I'm sorry you had to get involved.

For now... let's run.

Run? What?

Let's just run for it.

I can't go like this. I'm going to just--

Are you insane? Let's go.

Oh my goodness. Oh my!

What do I do?

Prince Jung!

Don't worry. I promise I'll save you.

Who's saving whom?

Stop!

Wook.

Wook.

Are you hurt?

I can endure it.

And you?

Get him!

Overconfidence is your greatest enemy. Do you not know that saying?

That is true.

Wolf... wolf...

Overconfidence is your greatest enemy.

It's the wolf dog. What do we do? The wolf dog.

Shouldn't we run away?

You're not running even after seeing me?

Are you all brave?

Or...

do you all want to die?

Run.

Are you hurt?

I'm not hurt.

It's a relief that So came.

I won't forget what you did for me, Wook.

You saved my arm, so I'll remember that.

Your life will be like my own life.

Even if I have to die, I will save your life.

Oh... oh dear.

Oh, our youngest prince.

You're already so reliable and strong. You'll be a great man soon.

Oh!

I'm sorry.

You reminded me of a little brother I have back home.

It's okay.

Hae Soo... sister.

Sister?

Please watch over me to see what kind of man I become.

Of course. Prince Jung, go get it!

Go... get...

It!

Go get it!

Go get it.

Go get it.

Wait for me.

Slow down a bit!

Are you angry?

Why?

Oh... oh my.

My leg hurts so much that I can't walk.

Oh, I was running to get away from those men.

I didn't even know that I had hurt my leg.

How much did I injure myself?

I don't think I can take another step.

I thought I had lost you.

What?

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

I was scared.

- Lady Soo! - Prince Wook!

Over there!

Lady!

Lady, are you okay?

What about the 14th Prince?

He's okay too.

Soo!

Myung Hee, I made you worry. I'm sorry.

We sent out the men.

You and the prince were gone, so we worried.

Mother was worried.

Go to the palace tomorrow...

Wook!

You even disguise yourself and go out?

I came here in case Mother finds out.

Thank you for your discretion and consideration.

This kind of outing must be common if you know people like that.

I just happened to be unlucky.

You were unlucky?

Because of you, a man lost an arm and his household was ruined.

Unlucky?

How will you take care of it?

I told you that I didn't know! I didn't do it.

If you didn't know about it, do you hold no responsibility?

You're a prince.

Don't you know you hold more responsibility the higher up you are?

That's very funny.

Since when were you ever in such a high position?

Ah...

Are you acting like this because you're the only one Mother treats coldly?

Or are you pushing down a younger brother who might show off?

Yo is right about you.

It's embarrassing to have been born from the same womb as you.

Stupid kid.

- So. - You...

- Move! - Mother!

Don't go near him.

Jung, you'll be in danger.

Mother, it was So who saved me.

- I would've lost my arm if not for him. - Don't be fooled.

He brings misfortune to anyone near him.

I went through it too. You can't suffer it as well.

Do not go near him.

Still, it was So who saved me.

I want you to say it.

Say you won't go near Jung. Say it now!

If that's what you want, that's what I'll do.

How long are you going to live being protected by her?

Jung, let me take a look. Where were you hurt?

Jung, Jung.

What are these wounds?

Jung!

My heart feels ripped apart when you get hurt.

What are you all doing? Get a doctor now!

- Move! - Mother!

Don't go near him.

Jung, you'll be in danger.

You want the 4th Prince to live in Songak?

Is it repayment for the fact that he saved you?

I wish to keep him by my side as one of my people.

Your Majesty.

I saw the 4th Prince's star rising above Songak.

This must have been the reason for it.

The 4th Prince's star combines with the Crown Prince's Ursa Major...

Your mother tried to kill the Crown Prince.

Your older brother desires to be the Crown Prince.

I have never shared their goals.

Then, what will you do about the reason you were first adopted?

You were sent there to console Concubine Kang who lost her son.

Not even for a day...

was I considered a son. I was merely a hostage.

Should you not know that better, Your Majesty?

What will you be to the Crown Prince?

Will you be a Chungju Yoo or a Shinju Kang?

I will live as a loyal subject of you and the Crown Prince.

I will not be a son or a brother, but a loyal subject.

Ji Mong.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Did you say that the 4th Prince's star rose over Songak?

Your star and the Crown Prince's star are in perfect alignment.

If the 4th Prince stays in Songak, it is a sign of great fortune in Goryeo.

Tell the Kangs in Shinju and all of Songak of this news.

From this day forth, the 4th Prince, Wang So, will be staying in Songak.

Thank you for your benevolence.

Thank you for your benevolence, Your Majesty.

Do you have no appetite?

Do not worry about me. You need to eat.

You are eating less and less. It is worrisome.

Myung Hee, it's Soo.

Come in.

I called you here to come eat with us.

I can just eat in my room.

You've been sitting in your room all day and barely eating.

I thought it might be better if we ate together.

Sit down.

I know it was for the 14th Prince, but it was dangerous to go alone.

You don't know what could've happened if our prince hadn't come.

Yes.

Thank you for saving me.

I only did what I should.

You're getting into trouble because you're always out and about.

You have no interest in household affairs.

What about sewing or... knitting cotton?

I'll look for something to interest me.

I'll get going first.

I have some books to read.

Are you destroying it again?

I'm not destroying it. I'm building it.

What a surprise...

What did you wish for?

Do you need to know people's wishes now?

I'm leaving this house now.

I'm going to live in the palace.

I won't be running into you so often.

Oh.

Oh, I guess I won't have to deliver rice to you anymore.

That's great.

You didn't do it that often. Stop trying to take credit.

Please lead a quiet life in the palace.

Don't threaten to kill or not kill people all the time.

Don't glare at people like you do when they don't listen to you.

Be especially careful not to draw your sword over nothing.

Oh yeah.

Don't destroy something that someone worked really hard to make.

- What else is there? - That's enough.

Eat your meals properly.

Sleep well, too.

Try not to have bad dreams if you can.

What is it?

Why are you looking at me like that?

Oh...

I just remembered you said you weren't scared of me.

How can you not be scared of me?

I'm most scared of myself.

Not you, Your Highness.

Even though they're my feelings, I can't figure out where they're headed.

No matter how much I try to change direction...

it's not working.

They wouldn't worry about things like this.

Now that I'm in Goryeo, there are a lot of stars here.

What do you mean there are a lot in Goryeo?

You don't believe you can only see stars in Goryeo, do you?

Ji Mong would pass out if he knew.

It's snowing.

It's pretty.

[Scarlet Heart: Ryeo]

I want to keep her with us and see her laugh for a long time.

I feel the same way.

Rather than a woman of high value, I want one who will treasure me.

Please accept Hae Soo as the prince's wife.

Take care of him for me.

Is this the girl who fought with Eun?

I have committed a deadly crime.

What did I do that you're doing this?

The feelings you and Wook have for each other

did you think no one would know?

I'm sorry you had to hear that.

It is all my fault, so don't blame yourself.
