00:01:07,186 --> 00:01:09,076
Your Majesty!

6
00:01:15,786 --> 00:01:19,586
Return to the palace first.

7
00:01:20,586 --> 00:01:23,506
Yes, Your Majesty.

Chae Ryeong.

9
00:01:34,696 --> 00:01:38,826
You should tell the King directly.

10
00:01:41,096 --> 00:01:41,829
Yes...

11
00:01:41,854 --> 00:01:43,844

[Episode 6]

13
00:02:10,959 --> 00:02:14,489
<i>Who is the one providing information to the Queen?</i>

14
00:02:14,489 --> 00:02:17,769
<i>I received orders from His Majesty.</i>

15
00:02:19,049 --> 00:02:21,359
<i>What will you report to him?</i>

16
00:02:23,389 --> 00:02:25,159
<i>I did not...</i>

17
00:02:26,279 --> 00:02:27,729
<i>see anything noteworthy, so...</i>

18
00:02:27,729 --> 00:02:32,139
But if you go to the King and say otherwise,

19
00:02:32,139 --> 00:02:35,939
I will kick you out of the palace.

20
00:02:35,939 --> 00:02:37,879
<i>Will you accept it?</i>

21
00:02:37,879 --> 00:02:41,129
<i>Yes, Your Majesty.</i>

22
00:02:58,449 --> 00:03:04,679
I know why you invited the King to come to this banquet, Father.

23
00:03:06,549 --> 00:03:11,099
I am glad the King accepted my invitation.

24
00:03:11,099 --> 00:03:16,239
However, it is in times like these that we have to be more careful.

25
00:03:16,239 --> 00:03:21,279
The gazes directed at our Min family have grown sharper.

26
00:03:22,609 --> 00:03:24,729
Yes.

27
00:03:24,729 --> 00:03:27,149
I will keep that in mind.

28
00:03:29,049 --> 00:03:32,409
But, Your Majesty,

29
00:03:32,409 --> 00:03:37,119
privately meeting with an informant is too dangerous.

30
00:03:38,119 --> 00:03:43,349
You know that the King is no ordinary man.

31
00:04:15,299 --> 00:04:16,489
Your Majesty.

32
00:04:16,489 --> 00:04:21,669
I felt bad about taking the Queen with me to the palace in such a rush

33
00:04:21,669 --> 00:04:23,559
without seeing you, Father.

34
00:04:23,559 --> 00:04:25,499
No, Your Majesty.

35
00:04:25,499 --> 00:04:29,139
I am honored that you visited my humble abode.

36
00:04:29,139 --> 00:04:32,049
Please, come inside.

37
00:04:43,439 --> 00:04:46,319
It is great that we are all here together like this.

38
00:04:46,319 --> 00:04:49,379
Your Majesty, I hope the food is to your liking.

39
00:04:49,379 --> 00:04:51,639
Oh, the food is great.

40
00:04:51,639 --> 00:04:53,319
I will pour you a drink.

41
00:04:53,319 --> 00:04:54,589
Yes, please do.

42
00:04:54,589 --> 00:04:56,609
It has been a while, yes.

43
00:04:57,699 --> 00:04:59,799
The wine is sweet!

44
00:04:59,799 --> 00:05:01,459
Sir.

45
00:05:01,459 --> 00:05:04,219
Aigoo, look who it is.

46
00:05:08,219 --> 00:05:10,399
Here it is.

47
00:05:11,429 --> 00:05:13,969
Please have a glass of this.

48
00:05:13,969 --> 00:05:16,259
- The food is delicious.
- Yes, I agree.

49
00:05:16,259 --> 00:05:18,169
Aigoo, it's good.

50
00:05:18,169 --> 00:05:20,249
It's amazing.

51
00:05:20,249 --> 00:05:24,559
When you took in Sungkyunkwan Music Researcher Kwon Hong's daughter as a concubine,

52
00:05:24,559 --> 00:05:27,099
there were many rumors on the streets

53
00:05:27,099 --> 00:05:29,949
that you were deposing the queen.

54
00:05:30,989 --> 00:05:35,579
Father, you do not have to worry about such things.

55
00:05:36,689 --> 00:05:39,819
Your Majesty's grace knows no bounds.

56
00:05:43,689 --> 00:05:46,639
That is a strong wine from Ming.

57
00:05:47,699 --> 00:05:49,209
Where did you get it?

58
00:05:49,209 --> 00:05:51,719
The local official brought it.

59
00:05:51,719 --> 00:05:56,459
Strong wine from Ming is worth at least 160 kg of rice.

60
00:05:56,459 --> 00:06:00,139
Then, did you also receive their help when you bought farmland in Gaegyeong

61
00:06:00,139 --> 00:06:02,729
for an extremely low price?

62
00:06:05,319 --> 00:06:06,839
That is...

63
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:12,309
Yeoganggun, pay for the strong wine from Ming you received from that local official.

64
00:06:12,309 --> 00:06:13,779
Pardon?

65
00:06:17,919 --> 00:06:20,169
Yes, Your Majesty.

66
00:06:23,879 --> 00:06:29,089
Your Majesty, the wine is going down so smoothly on this fine day.

67
00:06:29,089 --> 00:06:30,329
All right, let us drink!

68
00:06:30,329 --> 00:06:32,589
- Let us drink.
- Drink up!

69
00:06:32,589 --> 00:06:35,989
- Sounds great!
- Drink up.

70
00:06:35,989 --> 00:06:38,579
I feel we will not have enough wine.

71
00:06:38,579 --> 00:06:41,069
Bring out some more wine!

72
00:06:42,399 --> 00:06:44,629
Take a glass from me.

73
00:06:55,649 --> 00:06:57,729
Wait here.

74
00:07:03,329 --> 00:07:05,189
Goodness...

75
00:07:05,189 --> 00:07:11,069
Did you see their faces when the King used the strong wine from the Ming

76
00:07:11,069 --> 00:07:13,259
to crush the arrogance of the Min family?

77
00:07:13,259 --> 00:07:17,349
At first, I wondered why I was dragged here.

78
00:07:17,349 --> 00:07:20,079
I guess I came to witness that spectacle.

79
00:07:20,079 --> 00:07:26,319
I mean, even the Queen's face turned pale.

80
00:07:26,319 --> 00:07:30,299
I do not think the King believes only the Min family does that.

81
00:07:30,299 --> 00:07:33,619
Who do you mean? The King?

82
00:07:33,619 --> 00:07:37,469
He did that to show us all.

83
00:07:39,089 --> 00:07:42,749
In any case, they ended up receiving more backlash for their efforts.

84
00:07:42,749 --> 00:07:45,429
Are you referring to the Min family?

85
00:07:45,429 --> 00:07:46,929
Let us go.

86
00:07:54,319 --> 00:07:56,729
The alcohol is not wearing off.

87
00:07:56,729 --> 00:07:58,459
I cannot shake it off.

88
00:07:59,459 --> 00:08:05,269
Did you see the way the King looked at us when he talked about the strong wine?

89
00:08:05,269 --> 00:08:06,709
Why?

90
00:08:07,639 --> 00:08:09,729
It was scary.

91
00:08:11,029 --> 00:08:15,259
He tends to look at people like that sometimes

92
00:08:15,259 --> 00:08:17,639
with an unpleasant look.

93
00:08:17,639 --> 00:08:20,659
He was like that in the past, too.

94
00:08:20,659 --> 00:08:22,959
It was different from before.

95
00:08:22,959 --> 00:08:26,699
He is definitely wary of us.

96
00:08:30,229 --> 00:08:35,629
I will go prepare some medicine to soothe your stomach.

97
00:08:35,649 --> 00:08:37,829
No, no.

98
00:08:37,829 --> 00:08:41,919
It is better for you to just stay by my side right now.

99
00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:45,099
I do not want people fussing over me.

100
00:08:45,099 --> 00:08:48,149
You drank too much.

101
00:08:49,709 --> 00:08:53,639
I did so because I felt I should not drink less than everyone else.

102
00:08:54,799 --> 00:08:56,839
I am the King after all.

103
00:08:56,839 --> 00:08:59,629
People do not pay attention to things like that.

104
00:08:59,629 --> 00:09:01,279
They do pay attention to it.

105
00:09:01,279 --> 00:09:04,069
They pay attention to everything about me.

106
00:09:04,069 --> 00:09:06,099
They watch closely

107
00:09:06,099 --> 00:09:09,379
and wait for the right moment to exploit any weakness.

108
00:09:13,369 --> 00:09:15,769
<i>I am afraid.</i>

109
00:09:15,769 --> 00:09:18,099
<i>Do not be afraid.</i>

110
00:09:18,099 --> 00:09:21,819
<i>The history stands with us tonight.</i>

111
00:09:21,819 --> 00:09:23,749
<i>No!</i>

112
00:09:41,239 --> 00:09:44,769
<i>How dare you!</i>

113
00:10:00,599 --> 00:10:03,929
When Yeong Mu and Yeong Gyu swung their mace

114
00:10:03,929 --> 00:10:07,089
and blood splattered from Po Eun's shattered head,

115
00:10:07,089 --> 00:10:10,369
I felt myself starting to vomit.

116
00:10:13,859 --> 00:10:18,399
I just cannot get used to the stench of blood.

117
00:10:25,719 --> 00:10:30,109
Are you all right, Dear Wife?

118
00:10:30,109 --> 00:10:34,869
It is revolting for me as well.

119
00:10:34,869 --> 00:10:36,699
But?

120
00:10:36,729 --> 00:10:41,029
We have already made our choice, and we cannot turn back.

121
00:10:42,189 --> 00:10:46,569
People say you should not look down when you are on top of a cliff

122
00:10:46,569 --> 00:10:51,799
because if you take the wrong step out of fear, you will fall.

123
00:10:53,219 --> 00:10:58,269
And so, I will only look straight ahead.

124
00:11:03,399 --> 00:11:09,119
When I think about it, I wonder if you were better suited to be a king than me.

125
00:11:28,359 --> 00:11:30,889
Congratulations.

126
00:11:31,839 --> 00:11:33,389
Congratulations.

127
00:11:33,389 --> 00:11:35,699
Congratulations.

128
00:11:48,509 --> 00:11:51,829
But why did you keep it to yourself?

129
00:11:51,829 --> 00:11:55,279
I was afraid I may jinx it,

130
00:11:55,279 --> 00:11:57,579
so I waited until my pregnancy became stable.

131
00:11:57,579 --> 00:11:59,289
That could lead to big trouble.

132
00:11:59,289 --> 00:12:02,069
In the future, you must let us know right away.

133
00:12:02,069 --> 00:12:03,499
Yes.

134
00:12:03,499 --> 00:12:07,839
When you give birth to an offspring of the King, you will receive the position of concubine.

135
00:12:07,839 --> 00:12:11,879
We will prepare to move you to a pavilion worthy of your position.

136
00:12:11,879 --> 00:12:13,149
Thank you.

137
00:12:13,149 --> 00:12:15,959
We will also need to assign a court lady. I will prepare a smart girl-

138
00:12:15,959 --> 00:12:21,419
I would like to ask someone else to be my court lady.

139
00:12:21,419 --> 00:12:24,639
I will search for a smart girl to serve her.

140
00:12:27,579 --> 00:12:32,029
Oh, yes. That is fine.

141

[Gaegyeong]

142
00:12:43,849 --> 00:12:47,959
<i>The King will come to your quarters tonight.</i>

143
00:13:01,519 --> 00:13:06,209
Did you find out whom the Queen met at her private residence?

144
00:13:06,209 --> 00:13:09,809
I clearly saw her meeting with someone.

145
00:13:09,809 --> 00:13:14,409
However, I was unable to see who that person was.

146
00:13:17,249 --> 00:13:18,889
Is that so?

147
00:13:20,849 --> 00:13:22,519
I see.

148
00:13:24,979 --> 00:13:26,729
Also,

149
00:13:27,589 --> 00:13:31,529
I have great news to tell you.

150
00:13:33,689 --> 00:13:35,839
I am pregnant.

151
00:13:35,839 --> 00:13:38,709
Really? Thank you.

152
00:13:38,709 --> 00:13:41,019
I will bear you a prince.

153
00:13:41,019 --> 00:13:43,919
All right. You should be careful at all times.

154
00:13:43,919 --> 00:13:47,129
I will tell the Chief Court Lady to take extra care of you.

155
00:13:47,129 --> 00:13:50,319
I am honored.

156
00:13:50,319 --> 00:13:52,989
But does the Queen know about this?

157
00:13:52,989 --> 00:13:54,629
Pardon?

158
00:13:55,829 --> 00:13:59,629
Yes, she knows.

159
00:14:01,729 --> 00:14:03,509
All right, then.

160
00:14:18,509 --> 00:14:22,369
Fish or meat that has not been fully cooked must not be served on her table.

161
00:14:22,369 --> 00:14:24,199
Yes, Court Lady.

162
00:14:25,069 --> 00:14:27,529
Also, you must not serve any raw persimmon or shellfish.

163
00:14:27,529 --> 00:14:28,849
Make sure to take extra care.

164
00:14:28,849 --> 00:14:30,979
Yes, I understand.

165
00:14:36,219 --> 00:14:37,599
But Court Lady.

166
00:14:37,599 --> 00:14:39,189
What is it?

167
00:14:39,189 --> 00:14:41,799
If Favored Court Lady is pregnant now,

00:14:41,799 --> 00:14:44,999
then what will happen to Her Majesty?

169
00:14:45,999 --> 00:14:47,639
What do you mean?

170
00:14:47,639 --> 00:14:53,739
I was concerned that His Majesty's affections might only be for Favored Court Lady.

171
00:14:56,999 --> 00:14:59,799
Her Majesty is the leader of the palace ladies.

172
00:14:59,799 --> 00:15:02,589
How disloyal of you to compare them in that manner?

173
00:15:02,589 --> 00:15:04,669
I am sorry.

174
00:15:12,189 --> 00:15:14,329
I am worried that Her Majesty

175
00:15:14,329 --> 00:15:19,039
will end up like a dog helplessly staring at the roof after chasing a chicken.

176
00:15:20,949 --> 00:15:23,349
Is the palace...

177
00:15:23,349 --> 00:15:25,209
an animal farm?

178
00:15:25,209 --> 00:15:29,449
Then, who is the chicken, and who is the dog?

179
00:15:29,449 --> 00:15:32,029
Tell me. Tell me!

180
00:15:33,089 --> 00:15:35,979
Who is the chicken, and who is the dog!

181
00:15:50,119 --> 00:15:52,629
I heard that you are pregnant.

182
00:15:52,629 --> 00:15:55,479
Goodness, this is such good news.

183
00:15:55,479 --> 00:15:56,949
Thank you.

184
00:15:56,949 --> 00:15:58,779
And here.

185
00:15:58,779 --> 00:16:01,099
Her Majesty sent these.

186
00:16:01,099 --> 00:16:03,809
They are ginseng and deer antlers.

187
00:16:04,659 --> 00:16:07,909
She said since your hands and feet tend to get cold,

188
00:16:07,909 --> 00:16:10,999
your pregnancy may not yet be stable,

189
00:16:10,999 --> 00:16:14,499
so she said you should take extra care.

190
00:16:15,499 --> 00:16:19,099
Please give birth to a prince.

191
00:16:19,099 --> 00:16:21,089
Thank you.

192
00:16:22,059 --> 00:16:25,439
Are you now rising to such a high position

193
00:16:25,439 --> 00:16:29,459
that someone like me cannot even reach?

194
00:16:36,079 --> 00:16:38,339
This act is to clearly define

195
00:16:38,339 --> 00:16:41,599
the hierarchy of who bestows and who receives.

196
00:16:42,919 --> 00:16:44,209
Yes.

197
00:16:44,209 --> 00:16:47,149
And you have to always remember

198
00:16:47,149 --> 00:16:50,499
Court Lady Seo is the Queen's servant.

199
00:16:55,039 --> 00:16:56,549
Yes.

200
00:17:01,139 --> 00:17:04,349
I delivered it to Favored Court Lady.

201
00:17:06,389 --> 00:17:08,339
Great work.

202
00:17:08,339 --> 00:17:11,059
It is good news,

203
00:17:11,059 --> 00:17:16,959
but when I think about Your Majesty, my heart aches a bit.

204
00:17:16,959 --> 00:17:18,719
Are you all right?

205
00:17:18,719 --> 00:17:20,969
She is a sensitive child.

206
00:17:21,959 --> 00:17:27,059
You should take extra care of her until she gives birth.

207
00:17:27,059 --> 00:17:29,719
She is now also pregnant,

208
00:17:29,719 --> 00:17:35,229
so I am worried His Majesty's affection will only be directed toward her. Honestly, I...

209
00:17:35,229 --> 00:17:37,079
I do not know.

210
00:17:39,139 --> 00:17:42,199
What if she gives birth to a prince like that?

211
00:17:43,729 --> 00:17:46,389
If she gives birth to a prince,

212
00:17:46,389 --> 00:17:49,579
I just need to raise him as my son.

213
00:17:53,879 --> 00:17:56,869
Court Lady. Court Lady.

214
00:17:56,869 --> 00:17:59,649
Are you not going to set up a date for the royal consummation?

215
00:17:59,649 --> 00:18:01,739
It is the date of royal consummation of the King and Queen.

216
00:18:01,739 --> 00:18:04,479
I cannot set the date just because I want to.

217
00:18:04,479 --> 00:18:07,079
Still! Still!

218
00:18:07,079 --> 00:18:08,679
Just set up a date!

219
00:18:08,679 --> 00:18:10,979
Gosh, this woman!

220
00:18:13,779 --> 00:18:18,799
Even if I were to set up the date, would the Queen accept it?

221
00:18:18,799 --> 00:18:21,119
She will accept it.

222
00:18:42,149 --> 00:18:45,099
Even if you become the king,

223
00:18:45,099 --> 00:18:49,349
that position will not be set up for you.

224
00:18:49,349 --> 00:18:53,809
It is a position that you must set up as you go.

225
00:18:55,219 --> 00:18:58,129
Yes, Mother.

226
00:18:59,039 --> 00:19:03,339
You will be wary of each step you take.

227
00:19:03,339 --> 00:19:04,829
[Yi Je, Grand Prince Yangnyeong]

228
00:19:04,829 --> 00:19:07,979
However, it is only when you move forward

229
00:19:07,979 --> 00:19:10,539
boldly without being indecisive

230
00:19:10,539 --> 00:19:15,059
that you become a king.

231
00:19:15,059 --> 00:19:18,219
Yes, Mother.

232
00:19:52,929 --> 00:19:57,309
I do not deserve to eat this.

233
00:19:58,809 --> 00:20:02,699
I know with what state of mind you brought this back.

234
00:20:02,699 --> 00:20:04,699
Take it with you and eat it.

235
00:20:04,699 --> 00:20:07,019
Are you not pregnant with a child?

236
00:20:07,019 --> 00:20:09,589
Your Majesty, but-

237
00:20:09,589 --> 00:20:15,119
The royal child in your womb is like a royal child in my womb.

238
00:20:17,259 --> 00:20:23,709
Shall I put in a word to the royal physician to boil it for you?

239
00:20:23,709 --> 00:20:25,559
No, Your Majesty.

240
00:20:26,579 --> 00:20:28,409
I am sorry.

241
00:20:28,409 --> 00:20:34,009
You should focus on giving birth to a healthy child for the time being.

242
00:20:38,279 --> 00:20:41,209
Instead of involving yourself in useless things.

243
00:21:02,579 --> 00:21:05,199
<i>Did you not say that your body may belong to the King,</i>

244
00:21:05,199 --> 00:21:08,169
<i>but your heart belongs to me?</i>

245
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,119
<i>Your Majesty, it appears Pan Su at the border</i>

246
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,199
<i>caught wind of military movements in Dongbukmyeon.</i>

247
00:21:26,199 --> 00:21:30,519
<i>The only thing is, he insists on telling you in person.</i>

248
00:21:30,519 --> 00:21:32,139
Your Majesty!

249
00:21:33,299 --> 00:21:36,869
Jo Sa Eui has finally started a rebellion in Dongbukmyeon.

250
00:21:37,929 --> 00:21:40,169
Even if Jo Sa Eui started a rebellion,

251
00:21:40,169 --> 00:21:42,959
I am sure my father must be behind it.

252
00:21:42,959 --> 00:21:46,799
I, the king, cannot fight against my own father.

253
00:21:46,799 --> 00:21:49,009
Send Park Sun to appease him.

254
00:21:49,009 --> 00:21:50,649
They have killed Park Sun and

255
00:21:50,649 --> 00:21:53,209
are advancing to the regions of Deokcheon and Anju in Pyongan-do.

256
00:21:53,209 --> 00:21:55,609
And nearby Gabyeolcho soldiers are joining their forces.

257
00:21:55,609 --> 00:21:57,499
Appoint Jo Yeong Mu as the Commander-in-Chief

258
00:21:57,499 --> 00:22:00,069
of Dongbukmyeon, Gangwon, Chungcheong, Gyeongsang, and Jeolla Provinces

259
00:22:00,069 --> 00:22:02,029
and prevent sympathizing forces from joining the rebellion.

260
00:22:02,029 --> 00:22:05,929
And send Jo Yeong Moo, Yi Cheon Woo, Kim Yeong Ryeol, Yi Gwi Cheol to Dongbukmyeon.

261
00:22:05,929 --> 00:22:07,759
<i>Yes, Your Majesty.</i>

262
00:22:07,759 --> 00:22:10,209
They have captured 100 of Yi Cheon Woo's horsemen.

263
00:22:10,209 --> 00:22:13,129
Their army is around six to seven thousand men.

264
00:22:13,129 --> 00:22:16,929
If the Uriankhai also join them, their forces would exceed 10,000 men.

265
00:22:16,929 --> 00:22:19,179
Did you say the Uriankhai?

266
00:22:32,369 --> 00:22:36,419
The Uriankhai are one of the Jurchen tribes,

267
00:22:36,419 --> 00:22:40,619
who share a special bond with the Taesangwang.

268
00:22:40,619 --> 00:22:43,909
Are there any other men who will join him apart from the Uriankhai?

269
00:22:43,909 --> 00:22:45,379
No.

270
00:22:45,379 --> 00:22:47,219
Then, that is fine.

271
00:22:47,219 --> 00:22:52,529
Has Father entered Wonjung Port, as you mentioned before?

272
00:22:52,529 --> 00:22:54,219
That is so.

273
00:22:54,219 --> 00:22:56,069
All right.

274
00:22:57,349 --> 00:22:59,739
The King is watching carefully.

275
00:22:59,739 --> 00:23:01,649
Return safely.

276
00:23:11,999 --> 00:23:15,499
Our forces between Hwangju and Bongju number 40,000.

277
00:23:15,499 --> 00:23:18,189
Even if the Uriankhai join them, they are only 10,000.

278
00:23:18,189 --> 00:23:20,919
The odds are in our favor.

279
00:23:20,919 --> 00:23:25,499
However, if we engage in battle, countless soldiers will die.

280
00:23:25,499 --> 00:23:28,199
They are all my people as well.

281
00:23:30,189 --> 00:23:32,119
If I can bring my father here,

282
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:35,749
would we not be able to end the war without engaging in battle?

283
00:23:35,749 --> 00:23:39,649
The Gabyeolcho were originally soldiers who followed Taesangwang.

284
00:23:39,649 --> 00:23:42,099
They will scatter like grains of sand.

285
00:23:42,099 --> 00:23:44,919
Your Majesty, give me the command.

286
00:23:44,919 --> 00:23:48,469
I shall ride out and secure the Taesangwang.

287
00:23:48,469 --> 00:23:51,809
Are you saying you will capture my father?

288
00:23:54,969 --> 00:23:59,809
If so, I would become a king who killed his younger brother,

289
00:23:59,809 --> 00:24:02,779
dethroned his older brother,

290
00:24:02,779 --> 00:24:05,859
and seized his own father.

291
00:24:08,269 --> 00:24:09,819
Then...

292
00:24:16,099 --> 00:24:19,189
All we need to do is secure the Taesangwang.

293
00:24:19,189 --> 00:24:24,159
Why is the King unable to make up his mind like that?

294
00:24:25,419 --> 00:24:26,949
Think about it.

295
00:24:26,949 --> 00:24:29,459
Though Jo Sa Eui started the rebellion,

296
00:24:29,459 --> 00:24:32,299
Taesangwang is the one controlling him behind the scenes.

297
00:24:32,299 --> 00:24:34,629
Everyone knows that!

298
00:24:34,629 --> 00:24:37,559
Do you think the King does not know that?

299
00:24:37,559 --> 00:24:40,499
Besides, we do not know where Taesangwang is.

300
00:24:40,499 --> 00:24:43,939
We can figure that out once we capture Jo Sa Eui.

301
00:24:43,939 --> 00:24:48,929
Then, a large-scale war would be inevitable.

302
00:24:48,929 --> 00:24:52,979
He wants to avoid a war against his own father at all costs.

303
00:24:55,789 --> 00:24:57,919
Where are you going?

304
00:24:57,919 --> 00:25:00,279
Are you not going to go home?

305
00:25:00,279 --> 00:25:02,719
There is a book I need to find in the palace.

306
00:25:02,719 --> 00:25:05,879
A book in the palace?

307
00:25:05,879 --> 00:25:07,689
You can leave first.

308
00:25:27,509 --> 00:25:31,749
<i>Your Majesty, His Excellency Ha Ryun is here.</i>

309
00:25:57,729 --> 00:26:00,329
Were you surprised that I asked you to come secretly?

310
00:26:00,329 --> 00:26:01,849
No.

311
00:26:01,849 --> 00:26:05,769
I am thinking of personally heading out to Dongbukmyeon.

312
00:26:05,769 --> 00:26:07,799
Are you saying you will vacate the palace?

313
00:26:07,799 --> 00:26:11,449
I cannot entrust someone else

314
00:26:11,449 --> 00:26:13,729
with securing my father.

315
00:26:13,729 --> 00:26:16,479
The regime is not stable yet.

316
00:26:16,479 --> 00:26:19,419
If people find out the King has vacated the Palace-

317
00:26:19,419 --> 00:26:20,979
You must

318
00:26:22,289 --> 00:26:25,209
protect the palace in my place.

319
00:26:27,719 --> 00:26:29,669
I understand.

320
00:26:35,209 --> 00:26:39,659
I know that you are an expert in astrology and physiognomy.

321
00:26:41,519 --> 00:26:42,769
I am deeply honored.

322
00:26:42,769 --> 00:26:46,009
Thus, I have a question for you.

323
00:26:46,009 --> 00:26:48,049
Please, ask away.

324
00:26:48,049 --> 00:26:50,729
Yi Suk Beon...

325
00:26:50,729 --> 00:26:53,769
What kind of energy does he have?

326
00:26:53,769 --> 00:26:57,839
Is it that of a faithful subject or a traitorous subject?

327
00:26:59,809 --> 00:27:04,849
That depends solely on how Your Majesty uses him,

328
00:27:04,849 --> 00:27:08,329
but he does not have the energy of a traitorous subject.

329
00:27:08,329 --> 00:27:12,579
He is not a traitorous subject, but whether he is a faithful subject or not depends on me?

330
00:27:12,579 --> 00:27:13,989
That is so.

331
00:27:13,989 --> 00:27:15,999
Then, what about the Queen?

332
00:27:18,589 --> 00:27:19,849
Pardon?

333
00:27:20,609 --> 00:27:23,119
W-What are you asking me?

334
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,679
I am asking about a king's energy.

335
00:27:39,889 --> 00:27:42,439
Look at that constellation, Your Majesty.

336
00:27:42,439 --> 00:27:46,689
I am referring to that red star.

337
00:27:46,689 --> 00:27:51,309
That third star in that group of seven stars

338
00:27:51,309 --> 00:27:54,219
is an ominous sign.

339
00:27:54,219 --> 00:27:55,589
What do you mean by ominous?

340
00:27:55,589 --> 00:27:57,869
It could be an omen of rebellion.

341
00:27:57,869 --> 00:28:01,859
By rebellion, do you mean Dongbukmyeon?

342
00:28:02,739 --> 00:28:05,869
The rebellion at Dongbukmyeon has already started.

343
00:28:05,869 --> 00:28:08,519
So, that would not be an omen.

344
00:28:08,519 --> 00:28:11,439
Then, Your Majesty,

345
00:28:11,439 --> 00:28:15,839
how about you entrust the palace to Yeoheung Buwongun?

346
00:28:15,839 --> 00:28:17,339
I should test them?

347
00:28:17,339 --> 00:28:19,369
I will secretly watch them.

348
00:28:19,369 --> 00:28:23,489
Are you saying the Queen is the center of a rebellion?

349
00:28:31,329 --> 00:28:34,749
His Majesty will personally head out to Dongbukmyeon.

350
00:28:34,749 --> 00:28:36,889
What? Personally?

351
00:28:36,889 --> 00:28:38,999
Yes.

352
00:28:38,999 --> 00:28:43,439
It appears he will entrust the palace to Father.

353
00:28:44,349 --> 00:28:48,139
He must view our family as the only ones he can trust in an emergency.

354
00:28:48,139 --> 00:28:49,629
Nonsense.

355
00:28:49,629 --> 00:28:52,039
His Majesty has His Excellency Ha Ryun by his side.

356
00:28:52,039 --> 00:28:54,609
He definitely has a different reason for this.

357
00:28:55,969 --> 00:28:59,169
How could he decide this without telling me?

358
00:28:59,169 --> 00:29:01,209
Are you upset?

359
00:29:02,229 --> 00:29:06,729
Is he not going to battle where people may live or die?

360
00:29:30,839 --> 00:29:33,319
Summon the Chief Court Lady.

361
00:29:39,709 --> 00:29:41,309
My Lady.

362
00:29:41,309 --> 00:29:44,079
[Kwon Seon, Yi Bang Won's concubine]

363
00:29:45,459 --> 00:29:47,219
My Lady.

364
00:29:48,799 --> 00:29:54,239
Favored Court Lady said your music interferes with her prenatal care and asked...

365
00:29:57,259 --> 00:30:00,039
She asked that you refrain from playing.

366
00:30:01,029 --> 00:30:02,739
What?

367
00:30:16,909 --> 00:30:19,859
<i>Princess Jeongeui is here.</i>

368
00:30:30,329 --> 00:30:32,169
<i>Writing?</i>

369
00:30:37,389 --> 00:30:41,189
The sound of my geomungo is interfering with your prenatal care?

370
00:30:41,189 --> 00:30:43,489
What do you mean by that?

371
00:30:43,489 --> 00:30:45,929
It is noisy.

372
00:30:47,169 --> 00:30:51,259
Perhaps it is because I do not understand music,

373
00:30:51,259 --> 00:30:53,889
but it is noisy. Very noisy.

374
00:30:53,889 --> 00:30:58,259
You do not have the ear to even appreciate such music?

375
00:30:58,259 --> 00:31:04,759
I guess you must have solely used your body to seduce His Majesty.

376
00:31:05,759 --> 00:31:09,289
I was born into a lowly status,

377
00:31:10,169 --> 00:31:13,869
so I merely did not have the opportunity.

378
00:31:13,869 --> 00:31:21,329
However, I know what makes His Majesty happy in bed.

379
00:31:21,329 --> 00:31:25,739
It means that I am fulfilling my responsibilities as a concubine

380
00:31:25,739 --> 00:31:28,519
to the best of my ability.

381
00:31:32,629 --> 00:31:36,929
Please have His Majesty come to the Queen's palace.

382
00:31:36,929 --> 00:31:40,329
Are you saying I should set up a royal consummation?

383
00:31:40,329 --> 00:31:41,599
That is correct.

384
00:31:41,599 --> 00:31:44,389
B-But the Chief of the Royal Astronomical Bureau...

385
00:31:44,389 --> 00:31:46,949
Basically, tonight is not a date I received from him.

386
00:31:46,949 --> 00:31:49,449
Then, can you not set it up right now?

387
00:31:49,449 --> 00:31:51,979
This is a royal consummation between the king and queen of a nation.

388
00:31:51,979 --> 00:31:53,179
The procedure and preparation-

389
00:31:53,179 --> 00:31:56,069
The procedure and preparation do not need to be complicated.

390
00:31:56,069 --> 00:31:59,879
A wife is seeking her husband, who is heading out to battle.

391
00:31:59,879 --> 00:32:04,999
Even if so, the Queen never requests a royal consummation first.

392
00:32:04,999 --> 00:32:09,969
I want to be with His Majesty.

393
00:32:09,969 --> 00:32:12,619
Is there a better reason than that?

394
00:32:15,599 --> 00:32:19,399
If you really cannot, I will go to His chambers instead.

395
00:32:22,149 --> 00:32:24,249
No, Your Majesty.

396
00:32:24,249 --> 00:32:26,239
I understand.

397
00:32:27,139 --> 00:32:29,149
Tonight?

398
00:32:29,149 --> 00:32:32,299
Yes. Though it was set up in a hurry,

399
00:32:32,299 --> 00:32:36,879
tonight was considered to be the best night to produce a baby prince.

400
00:32:39,879 --> 00:32:41,589
I understand.

401
00:32:50,069 --> 00:32:51,829
Why did you do that?

402
00:32:51,829 --> 00:32:54,899
Princess Jeongui called the Chief Court Lady and scolded her,

403
00:32:54,899 --> 00:32:57,359
and that was reported to His Majesty.

404
00:32:57,359 --> 00:32:58,889
To His Majesty?

405
00:32:58,889 --> 00:33:00,229
Yes.

406
00:33:00,229 --> 00:33:05,579
For now, I hear that he will build her a pavilion near the small pond

407
00:33:05,579 --> 00:33:10,339
where Princess Jeongui can play the geomungo in peace.

408
00:33:10,339 --> 00:33:13,849
He is letting you off lightly because you are pregnant.

409
00:33:13,849 --> 00:33:18,869
But why is His Majesty doing all that for Princess Jeongui?

410
00:33:18,869 --> 00:33:21,009
She is the daughter of a powerful family.

411
00:33:21,009 --> 00:33:24,189
Even if he is a king, he cannot ignore that fact.

412
00:33:24,189 --> 00:33:28,749
Since they have money, power, and organization.

413
00:33:28,749 --> 00:33:30,399
But I am pregnant with his child.

414
00:33:30,399 --> 00:33:33,839
Are you the only one who can get pregnant?

415
00:33:33,839 --> 00:33:38,239
Do you think His Majesty's affection will only stay with you?

416
00:33:38,239 --> 00:33:44,759
The palace is where young, new, and beautiful women are constantly supplied.

417
00:33:47,979 --> 00:33:49,539
Then,

418
00:33:51,169 --> 00:33:54,999
I also need a powerful minister who can become my ally.

419
00:33:56,099 --> 00:33:58,449
Is that not so?

420
00:34:06,409 --> 00:34:08,989
Oh, no need, no need.

421
00:34:08,989 --> 00:34:10,519
Lift your glass.

422
00:34:13,859 --> 00:34:17,889
How well do you think you know His Majesty?

423
00:34:20,269 --> 00:34:22,909
I think I know him pretty well.

424
00:34:24,689 --> 00:34:26,949
Pretty well, you say.

425
00:34:30,219 --> 00:34:34,859
From what I can tell, you do not know him at all.

426
00:34:35,859 --> 00:34:37,239
What do you mean?

427
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:42,179
His Majesty will not place you at the forefront this time.

428
00:34:43,669 --> 00:34:45,349
Then what?

429
00:34:48,649 --> 00:34:52,169
Did the Queen exert her influence again?

430
00:34:56,519 --> 00:34:59,639
This is why I say you do not know His Majesty.

431
00:34:59,639 --> 00:35:05,009
Is His Majesty someone who would be swayed by someone's words?

432
00:35:05,009 --> 00:35:06,689
Then?

433
00:35:08,339 --> 00:35:10,789
He judges and decides on his own.

434
00:35:10,789 --> 00:35:15,029
But is it not true that Her Majesty's opinions

435
00:35:15,029 --> 00:35:19,649
played into many of His Majesty's past decisions?

436
00:35:22,729 --> 00:35:26,159
They were longtime political partners.

437
00:35:26,159 --> 00:35:29,569
Even when he takes in all those women and fights with her all the time?

438
00:35:29,569 --> 00:35:32,549
Even when he takes in all those women and fights with her all the time,

439
00:35:32,549 --> 00:35:36,809
they have always shared the same political goals.

440
00:35:37,779 --> 00:35:40,489
Even if their political goals are the same,

441
00:35:40,489 --> 00:35:43,149
one is a king, and the other is a subject.

442
00:35:43,149 --> 00:35:46,479
And one is a man,

443
00:35:47,549 --> 00:35:50,229
and the other is a woman.

444
00:35:56,699 --> 00:35:58,439
So?

445
00:36:01,059 --> 00:36:06,539
I am saying this is the easiest relationship to change.

446
00:36:14,899 --> 00:36:17,159
Then,

447
00:36:17,159 --> 00:36:19,669
what can you do about it?

448
00:36:19,669 --> 00:36:22,959
I will break their alliance.

449
00:36:27,109 --> 00:36:29,739
I will make sure to do so.

450
00:36:31,399 --> 00:36:35,369
If I pull this off, what will you do for me?

451
00:37:01,189 --> 00:37:03,869
His Majesty is here.

452
00:37:13,929 --> 00:37:16,409
I hear you are heading out to battle.

453
00:37:18,045 --> 00:37:19,765
That is correct.

454
00:37:41,830 --> 00:37:43,570
Why are you here?

455
00:37:43,570 --> 00:37:46,620
You should just close your eyes and ears for tonight, okay?

456
00:37:46,620 --> 00:37:48,580
W-W-What?

457
00:37:50,420 --> 00:37:52,260
- Hey, Court Lady!
- H-H-Hey!

458
00:37:52,260 --> 00:37:53,840
Quiet, quiet.

459
00:39:30,941 --> 00:39:36,271
How about you go by yourself to bring Father?

460
00:39:38,411 --> 00:39:41,851
He will be with his army.

461
00:39:41,851 --> 00:39:45,231
How can you say I should go by myself to bring him?

462
00:39:45,231 --> 00:39:50,911
Father is by himself at Wonjung Port.

463
00:39:50,911 --> 00:39:55,691
Secretly, with only his closest elite guards with him.

464
00:39:57,691 --> 00:39:59,931
Is that true?

465
00:39:59,931 --> 00:40:01,991
It is true.

466
00:40:05,381 --> 00:40:08,031
Is it your informant again?

467
00:40:09,031 --> 00:40:12,481
It is all for Your Majesty.

468
00:40:20,571 --> 00:40:22,741
But...

469
00:40:22,741 --> 00:40:25,571
will Father readily agree to come with me?

470
00:40:25,571 --> 00:40:29,331
You know how he left Gaegyeong.

471
00:40:29,331 --> 00:40:32,171
Now is different from back then.

472
00:40:32,171 --> 00:40:34,271
Jo Sa Eui's army is already afraid

473
00:40:34,271 --> 00:40:37,131
after hearing that the royal army totals 40,000,

474
00:40:37,131 --> 00:40:40,801
and Father will also not want any more of his men

475
00:40:40,801 --> 00:40:43,361
to get hurt in a battle he cannot win.

476
00:40:43,361 --> 00:40:49,491
Perhaps Father may only need justification for changing his mind.

477
00:40:52,671 --> 00:40:56,251
That I came for him by risking my life.

478
00:40:56,251 --> 00:40:58,831
I should give him that justification?

479
00:40:58,831 --> 00:41:01,921
It will not be an easy task.

480
00:41:01,921 --> 00:41:03,811
It will be dangerous.

481
00:41:04,711 --> 00:41:10,211
However, that may perhaps be the only way.

482
00:41:22,641 --> 00:41:27,221
<i>You must not step in until you realize the King's life is in danger.</i>

483
00:41:27,221 --> 00:41:29,121
<i>Do you understand?</i>

484
00:41:30,722 --> 00:41:34,612
<i>If the King does not bring Taesangwang by 45 minutes after the Hour of the Rabbit,</i>

485
00:41:34,612 --> 00:41:37,802
<i>you must go to the temple and save the King.</i>

486
00:41:59,031 --> 00:42:05,711
<i>The distance from there to where Father is will be about two hours distance.</i>

487
00:43:03,861 --> 00:43:06,751
<i>There are ten elite guards protecting Taesangwang.</i>

488
00:43:06,751 --> 00:43:09,621
In groups of five, they rotate their shifts

489
00:43:09,621 --> 00:43:13,051
twice at 45 minutes past the Hour of Rooster and the Hour of Rabbit.

490
00:43:13,051 --> 00:43:19,871
<i>Then, I should meet Father between the Hour of Rabbit and 45 minutes past.</i>

491
00:44:26,021 --> 00:44:28,391
How is your health, Father?

No.

494

I came to bring you back.

495

I came by myself.

498

Are you telling me to believe that you, the King, came alone?

499

Please believe me, Father.

- Father.
- Go back!

502

This is a battle you cannot win.

503

Why are you turning a blind eye to the fact that soldiers will die unnecessarily?

504

I will move the capital back to Hanyang.

I will cut ties with those who seek vested interests from Jeonju.

507

508
00:45:40,641 --> 00:45:42,731

Go back.

513

If you do not go back, I will kill you!

514

Do not move. I am the King of Joseon.

518

He is not the King.

519

He is a rebel claiming to be a king!

If you kill me, the court will fall into chaos,

and your name will be recorded in history

I asked you why you killed them.

547
00:48:57,731 --> 00:49:03,431
I wanted to create the Joseon that I dreamed of.

548
00:49:04,951 --> 00:49:08,821
I will become a king solely for the people.

549
00:49:08,821 --> 00:49:12,021
I will repay to the people

550
00:49:12,021 --> 00:49:15,171
the blood that I have shed, Father.

551

Even if no one understands, you would understand, Father!

552

What kind of heart that is!

553
00:50:46,621 --> 00:50:50,761
Hanyang is the land where Taesangwang started afresh.

554
00:50:50,761 --> 00:50:52,571
However, in the Year of the Yellow Rabbit,

555
00:50:52,571 --> 00:50:55,771
we abruptly moved to Gaegyeong after Jo Bak petitioned the Sangwang,

556
00:50:55,771 --> 00:50:58,451
and we have not been able to return.

557
00:51:00,271 --> 00:51:02,561
To revive the founding spirit of Joseon,

558
00:51:02,561 --> 00:51:06,951
we will move the capital to Hanyang and establish a new Joseon.

559
00:51:09,101 --> 00:51:10,801
You should not do this.

560
00:51:10,801 --> 00:51:13,591
Gaegyeong, with its proximity to Byeokrando,
[Byeokrando: An international trading port for foreign envoys and merchants]

561
00:51:13,591 --> 00:51:16,651
serves as a convenient commercial hub for trade.

562
00:51:16,651 --> 00:51:19,081
Hanyang is located along the Han River.

563
00:51:19,081 --> 00:51:22,991
It is in no way inferior to Gaegyeong in terms of commercial transport.

564
00:51:22,991 --> 00:51:24,761
If the capital is moved to Hanyang,

565
00:51:24,761 --> 00:51:27,911
we will have to mobilize the people to construct roads again.

566
00:51:27,911 --> 00:51:31,241
Hanyang has even roads connecting all directions

567
00:51:31,241 --> 00:51:33,551
and both boats and carts can pass through with ease.

568
00:51:33,551 --> 00:51:36,401
There will be no unnecessary burden on the people.

569
00:51:36,401 --> 00:51:40,881
However, Gaeseong served as the capital for 500 years, so it is fully equipped-

570
00:51:40,881 --> 00:51:44,531
Fully equipped may be the case for you powerful ministers!

573

When Sangwang moved the capital back to Gaegyeong,

574
00:51:57,971 --> 00:52:01,731
who bought land and houses here?

575
00:52:01,731 --> 00:52:06,001
It was the powerful ministers who had a lot of wealth and early information.

576
00:52:06,001 --> 00:52:09,121
They illegally bought land and houses here

577
00:52:09,121 --> 00:52:11,891
and drained the blood of the people.

578
00:52:13,661 --> 00:52:16,711
If anyone ever opposes me in this matter again,

579
00:52:16,711 --> 00:52:19,421
I will investigate and confiscate their wealth,

580
00:52:19,421 --> 00:52:22,281
and punish them according to the law.
