1
00:00:13,814 --> 00:00:18,761
Men come into this world,
and some enjoy longevity.
2
00:00:19,098 --> 00:00:21,725
Life is fleeting and unpredictable,
3
00:00:22,053 --> 00:00:24,677
like drifting clouds.
4
00:00:25,498 --> 00:00:30,734
On May 14, 1606,
the Lord of Tatebayashi Castle,
5
00:00:31,078 --> 00:00:35,647
Sakakibara Yasumasa died.
He was 59 years old that year.
6
00:00:36,378 --> 00:00:39,781
By coincidence,
on the same day in Fushimi Castle,
7
00:00:40,076 --> 00:00:44,549
Lady Nishigori suddenly died.
She was also 59 years old.
8
00:00:45,239 --> 00:00:48,796
And then,
on June 1st at Edo Castle,
9
00:00:49,126 --> 00:00:52,132
New Shogun Hidetada's
second son was born!
10
00:00:52,366 --> 00:00:54,470
He was named "Kunichiyo."
11
00:00:54,783 --> 00:01:00,875
He was two years younger
than the Shogun heir, Takechiyo!

39
00:03:45,810 --> 00:03:48,163
How was the Noh performance?
40
00:03:49,061 --> 00:03:51,788
I thoroughly enjoyed it.
41
00:03:52,932 --> 00:03:56,402
The nobles were delighted as well.
42
00:03:56,839 --> 00:03:58,664
Kyoto - Nijo Castle
43
00:03:59,085 --> 00:04:03,400
They start to complain
if they are not entertained well.
44
00:04:05,183 --> 00:04:10,622
I understand you plan to build
a palace for the Imperial Court.
45
00:04:11,407 --> 00:04:16,900
I received an Imperial command
to build the Sento Palace.
46
00:04:17,449 --> 00:04:19,308
Sento Palace?
47
00:04:20,792 --> 00:04:23,543
Namely, a retirement palace.
48
00:04:25,572 --> 00:04:30,465
Then the Emperor's successor
will be Prince Hachijo?
49
00:04:32,776 --> 00:04:38,714
Prince Hachijo is the Emperor's
younger brother.
50
00:04:40,455 --> 00:04:43,943
His Majesty has bypassed
his natural son...
51
00:04:44,223 --> 00:04:47,374
to make his brother successor.
52
00:04:48,173 --> 00:04:51,467
I believe he has
trampled on ancient tradition.
53
00:04:52,046 --> 00:04:54,204
Ancient tradition?
54
00:04:54,904 --> 00:04:56,703
Suden, what do you think?
55
00:04:57,364 --> 00:05:01,452
Writs of the ancient practices say...
56
00:05:01,803 --> 00:05:04,563
regardless of his position in government,
57
00:05:04,563 --> 00:05:06,423
the eldest son is next in line.
58
00:05:06,687 --> 00:05:13,157
But people say Prince Hachijo
should be the next Emperor.
59
00:05:13,814 --> 00:05:18,255
No doubt that's the influence
of wicked nobles.
60
00:05:23,519 --> 00:05:26,448
I, Ieyasu, will recommend that...
61
00:05:26,770 --> 00:05:31,974
His Majesty's son, Prince Kotohito,
become Crown Prince.
62
00:05:35,616 --> 00:05:38,855
How old is Prince Kotohito?
63
00:05:39,552 --> 00:05:42,456
He is eleven, My Lady.
64
00:05:45,879 --> 00:05:48,895
Many disagreements will probably arise.
65
00:05:49,409 --> 00:05:54,379
That is why I am asking your help,
Lady Kodai-in.
66
00:05:55,012 --> 00:05:57,976
Please recommend Prince Kotohito
for successor...
67
00:05:58,350 --> 00:06:01,430
to nobles whom you know.
68
00:06:03,435 --> 00:06:05,328
I am only a retiree.
69
00:06:05,711 --> 00:06:07,437
Please, My Lady.
70
00:06:08,662 --> 00:06:10,382
Lord Ieyasu...
71
00:06:11,572 --> 00:06:17,681
I ask that you
grant me a favor as well.
72
00:06:19,111 --> 00:06:22,183
Anything you wish, My Lady.
73
00:06:22,777 --> 00:06:24,998
At the Noh performance,
74
00:06:25,354 --> 00:06:29,106
I met Vice Major Counsellor,
Kujo Tadahide.
75
00:06:29,861 --> 00:06:31,941
Kujo Tadahide?
76
00:06:32,262 --> 00:06:38,933
His wife Sadako is the
daughter of Hashiba Hidekatsu,
77
00:06:39,248 --> 00:06:42,126
nephew of Taiko Hideyoshi.
78
00:06:42,563 --> 00:06:47,340
Please show consideration
to Lord Tadahide.
79
00:06:48,559 --> 00:06:50,279
Then someday...
80
00:06:50,552 --> 00:06:55,264
he could be useful to you.
81
00:06:56,294 --> 00:06:59,856
I shall, My Lady.
82
00:07:04,268 --> 00:07:09,015
Kujo Tadahide was soon made
Captain of the Left Guard.
83
00:07:09,318 --> 00:07:13,092
This was all due to Lord Ieyasu's
powerful political influence.
84
00:07:13,391 --> 00:07:16,521
Tadahide's wife Sadako
was the daughter of Ogou...
85
00:07:16,813 --> 00:07:20,431
and earlier husband,
Hashiba Hidekatsu.
86
00:07:24,054 --> 00:07:26,158
Edo Castle
87
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,915
On September 23, 1606,
88
00:07:29,237 --> 00:07:32,829
New Shogun Hidetada
and his wife Ogou...
89
00:07:33,095 --> 00:07:35,620
moved into the new palace
in Edo Castle's Main Compound.
90
00:07:38,410 --> 00:07:40,581
Osaka Castle
91
00:07:40,956 --> 00:07:43,285
If the great Taiko were alive,
92
00:07:43,613 --> 00:07:47,114
the Tokugawa's arrogance
would never be tolerated.
93
00:07:48,052 --> 00:07:49,979
Please forget that.
94
00:07:51,147 --> 00:07:52,331
"Forget?"
95
00:07:52,662 --> 00:07:55,164
The Tokugawa winds blow mighty now.
96
00:07:56,463 --> 00:08:01,037
If they resist the winds,
even the strongest trees fall.
97
00:08:02,131 --> 00:08:07,478
If you bend like the willow,
the winds will soon abate.
98
00:08:07,803 --> 00:08:10,182
Bending will not make the winds cease.
99
00:08:11,616 --> 00:08:14,599
Lord Ieyasu intends
to blow Hideyori down.
100
00:08:14,854 --> 00:08:15,577
Impossible.
101
00:08:17,728 --> 00:08:18,853
Ohatsu?
102
00:08:19,444 --> 00:08:20,427
Yes?
103
00:08:21,119 --> 00:08:23,768
If war should break out,
whom will you join?
104
00:08:24,208 --> 00:08:26,475
Osaka or Edo?
105
00:08:29,275 --> 00:08:31,119
I won't join either side.
106
00:08:31,909 --> 00:08:33,459
What?
107
00:08:34,588 --> 00:08:37,224
I will stand between them,
108
00:08:37,618 --> 00:08:39,880
and give my life to stop the fighting.
109
00:08:41,645 --> 00:08:43,163
I hardly think so.
110
00:08:44,630 --> 00:08:46,619
Please forget about fighting.
111
00:08:46,947 --> 00:08:49,423
For Ogou's sake
and Princess Sen's as well!
112
00:08:49,637 --> 00:08:51,509
Lord Ieyasu provokes it.
113
00:08:51,810 --> 00:08:53,447
You are stubborn as well!
114
00:08:53,771 --> 00:08:55,638
"Stubborn?"
That's absurd.
115
00:08:56,139 --> 00:09:00,232
Toyotomi honor can be saved
if you will step back.
116
00:09:00,558 --> 00:09:02,359
I cannot bow to a traitor.
117
00:09:02,656 --> 00:09:07,248
You must believe the Taiko's
power has ended with him!
118
00:09:09,344 --> 00:09:10,902
Don't be insolent!
119
00:09:13,159 --> 00:09:15,025
Is that what Lord Kyogoku says?
120
00:09:15,361 --> 00:09:18,003
No, it is what I ask.
121
00:09:18,894 --> 00:09:21,061
Is that because you
adopted Ogou's daughter?
122
00:09:21,337 --> 00:09:22,453
That's a separate matter.
123
00:09:22,678 --> 00:09:24,141
That's absurd!
124
00:09:25,065 --> 00:09:27,752
Your husband, Lord Kyogoku,
betrayed Ishida Mitsunari!
125
00:09:28,623 --> 00:09:30,013
Sister!
126
00:09:32,952 --> 00:09:39,215
On November 4, upon arriving in Edo,
Ieyasu inspected the palace at once.
127
00:09:40,503 --> 00:09:42,155
Is this the grand hall?
128
00:09:49,184 --> 00:09:51,306
The sliding doors were painted
by Kano artists.
129
00:09:54,151 --> 00:09:55,707
Quite sumptuous.
130
00:09:56,466 --> 00:09:57,846
It's thanks to you, Father.
131
00:09:58,196 --> 00:09:59,743
This is wonderful.
132
00:10:00,063 --> 00:10:02,393
It's truly befitting a new Shogun.
133
00:10:02,905 --> 00:10:04,579
Thanks to you, Father.
134
00:10:05,034 --> 00:10:06,545
All that remains is the tower.
135
00:10:07,424 --> 00:10:10,352
Make it no less grand
than the one in Osaka.
136
00:10:10,352 --> 00:10:11,297
Yes, Father.
137
00:10:11,566 --> 00:10:12,328
Also...
138
00:10:12,623 --> 00:10:14,284
Gorotamaru and Nagatomimaru...
139
00:10:14,610 --> 00:10:17,816
were made nobles,
Junior 4th Rank, Lower Grade.
140
00:10:18,095 --> 00:10:19,949
Oh, that's wonderful.
141
00:10:20,372 --> 00:10:23,823
Gorotamaru is Yoshitoshi,
Captain of the Middle Guards.
142
00:10:24,421 --> 00:10:30,201
Nagatomimaru is Yorimasa,
Vice Minor Captain of the Inner Palace Guards.
143
00:10:31,001 --> 00:10:33,564
Fine titles, don't you think?
144
00:10:34,805 --> 00:10:36,048
Congratulations.
145
00:10:36,889 --> 00:10:38,327
Congratulations.
146
00:10:39,308 --> 00:10:41,636
We'll have nothing
but good fortune.
147
00:10:41,958 --> 00:10:44,130
A second son was born
to the New Shogun.
148
00:10:44,555 --> 00:10:47,080
Okaji is pregnant with my child.
149
00:10:48,112 --> 00:10:49,782
Your 16th, isn't it?
150
00:10:50,178 --> 00:10:52,241
You can't beat me yet.
151
00:10:54,089 --> 00:10:57,924
Oh yeah, we've also staked out
the area for Sunpu Castle.
152
00:10:58,298 --> 00:10:59,788
Excellent, Father.
153
00:11:00,942 --> 00:11:02,252
Where's Takechiyo?
154
00:11:02,665 --> 00:11:04,495
Bring Takechiyo here.
155
00:11:05,376 --> 00:11:07,516
Unfortunately,
Lord Takechiyo is not feeling well.
156
00:11:10,711 --> 00:11:11,625
Smallpox?!
157
00:11:11,929 --> 00:11:13,798
No, we believe it is the flu.
158
00:11:16,338 --> 00:11:17,188
Masazumi!
159
00:11:18,630 --> 00:11:20,530
Take some medicine
to the West Compound.
160
00:11:21,063 --> 00:11:25,451
That one...
Powdered deer antler...
161
00:11:25,741 --> 00:11:27,578
And the one I mixed...
162
00:11:27,812 --> 00:11:31,703
That one...
Korean ginseng!
163
00:11:33,404 --> 00:11:35,406
Takechiyo
164
00:11:37,832 --> 00:11:39,690
Take you medicine.
165
00:11:40,094 --> 00:11:45,264
Your loving grandfather
mixed these potions himself.
166
00:11:46,785 --> 00:11:48,395
Here, Young Lord.
167
00:11:51,467 --> 00:11:53,756
Heaven will punish you if you refuse.
168
00:11:54,237 --> 00:11:56,127
Bear the bitter taste.
169
00:12:01,783 --> 00:12:04,035
- Pardon me!
- Quiet, please.
170
00:12:04,892 --> 00:12:06,780
Her ladyship has come.
171
00:12:19,115 --> 00:12:20,228
How is he?
172
00:12:23,601 --> 00:12:25,046
Is he feverish?
173
00:12:27,511 --> 00:12:30,741
Her ladyship is speaking to you!
Answer her.
174
00:12:31,197 --> 00:12:32,669
There is nothing to fear.
175
00:12:33,064 --> 00:12:34,870
We heard he vomited his food.
176
00:12:35,145 --> 00:12:35,532
Yes.
177
00:12:35,833 --> 00:12:36,776
When?
178
00:12:37,065 --> 00:12:38,646
Last night.
179
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:40,562
What does the physician say?
180
00:12:40,876 --> 00:12:43,179
He should be better
after a few days' rest.
181
00:12:44,163 --> 00:12:45,402
Why didn't you inform us?
182
00:12:45,969 --> 00:12:48,679
You, the wet nurse
to the Shogun's heir,
183
00:12:48,974 --> 00:12:51,807
neglecting to inform us!
It's outrageous!
184
00:12:52,379 --> 00:12:54,164
You will be punished for this.
185
00:12:54,705 --> 00:12:55,746
Never mind.
186
00:12:56,133 --> 00:12:57,857
Ofuku is being impudent!
187
00:13:02,046 --> 00:13:03,032
Takechiyo?
188
00:13:04,075 --> 00:13:05,498
It's Mother.
189
00:13:08,051 --> 00:13:09,467
I must wipe you.
190
00:13:28,769 --> 00:13:33,329
On December 24, Ieyasu's 6th son,
Matsudaira Tadateru,
191
00:13:33,618 --> 00:13:37,597
married Date Masamune's daughter,
Princess Iroha.
192
00:13:39,036 --> 00:13:42,689
Lord Tadateru was fifteen.
Princess Iroha was thirteen.
193
00:13:52,212 --> 00:13:54,664
On New Year's Day 1607...
194
00:13:55,016 --> 00:13:59,439
Ieyasu's 5th daughter Princess Ichi
was born at Edo Castle.
195
00:14:00,614 --> 00:14:02,251
It is your child, My Lord.
196
00:14:02,968 --> 00:14:05,479
I know. I know.
197
00:14:07,265 --> 00:14:15,839
Who would have dreamed I'd
have a child at the age of 66?
198
00:14:16,233 --> 00:14:18,557
It is truly your child.
199
00:14:19,285 --> 00:14:21,465
Yes, she's mine, indeed.
200
00:14:22,758 --> 00:14:25,666
I had hoped she would be a boy...
201
00:14:26,619 --> 00:14:30,065
No, a princess is fine.
202
00:14:33,496 --> 00:14:35,426
A princess is fine.
203
00:14:38,216 --> 00:14:45,251
Oichi will bring extraordinary
good fortune.
204
00:14:48,714 --> 00:14:51,268
Please...
205
00:14:53,076 --> 00:14:55,382
Don't abandon her.
206
00:14:56,669 --> 00:14:59,295
Here, here...
207
00:14:59,715 --> 00:15:01,690
Stop that.
208
00:15:04,451 --> 00:15:05,596
My Lord?!
209
00:15:07,136 --> 00:15:08,879
What's the matter?
210
00:15:10,032 --> 00:15:11,029
My chest...
211
00:15:21,897 --> 00:15:23,374
Father!
212
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:32,585
Father...
213
00:15:33,270 --> 00:15:35,508
I'm still alive.
214
00:15:38,069 --> 00:15:42,421
But, I'm dying.
215
00:15:42,874 --> 00:15:44,857
What are you saying?
216
00:15:47,082 --> 00:15:48,855
Your Excellency...
217
00:15:49,253 --> 00:15:53,570
He must have complete rest.
218
00:15:56,931 --> 00:15:59,307
You went hawking once too often.
219
00:16:00,631 --> 00:16:04,119
Someone has placed a curse on me.
220
00:16:05,082 --> 00:16:06,519
Curse?
221
00:16:07,215 --> 00:16:10,054
It could be Yodo.
222
00:16:11,262 --> 00:16:15,066
Or, perhaps...
Konoe.
223
00:16:16,007 --> 00:16:18,440
Konoe Nobutada, Father?
224
00:16:19,123 --> 00:16:22,766
I forced him to resign as Chancellor.
225
00:16:24,695 --> 00:16:30,683
There are many who despise me!
226
00:16:32,198 --> 00:16:35,260
That is enough talk for now,
Your Excellency.
227
00:16:36,649 --> 00:16:38,135
No...
228
00:16:40,322 --> 00:16:42,040
Stay here.
229
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:50,958
Father...
230
00:16:54,472 --> 00:16:55,706
What?!
231
00:16:56,700 --> 00:16:58,040
Lord Ieyasu?
232
00:16:58,422 --> 00:17:00,372
He is extremely ill.
233
00:17:02,346 --> 00:17:03,778
Are you sure of this?
234
00:17:04,167 --> 00:17:09,103
It is reported that Lord Ieyasu
paid no New Year's calls.
235
00:17:09,627 --> 00:17:13,171
Nor did he participate
in any New Year's events.
236
00:17:15,108 --> 00:17:19,220
Tokugawa hereditary vassals
are hastening to Edo Castle.
237
00:17:21,060 --> 00:17:22,844
So Heaven has finally punished him?
238
00:17:24,266 --> 00:17:25,976
Sir Katsumoto...
239
00:17:26,583 --> 00:17:28,023
What should we do?
240
00:17:28,411 --> 00:17:30,125
First, we must send a messenger
to pay a sick call.
241
00:17:31,980 --> 00:17:34,283
That is not what I mean.
242
00:17:36,034 --> 00:17:38,205
I'm referring to the plan
we discussed earlier.
243
00:17:38,790 --> 00:17:40,457
Pardon me, My Lady...
244
00:17:40,830 --> 00:17:42,955
Lord Ieyasu is still alive.
245
00:17:43,592 --> 00:17:45,269
This is suspicious!
246
00:17:48,675 --> 00:17:51,594
The government must be hiding
the Old Lord's death.
247
00:17:52,017 --> 00:17:53,381
For what reason?
248
00:17:53,753 --> 00:17:55,503
That I don't know.
249
00:17:56,461 --> 00:17:59,012
But, they also concealed
the Taiko's death.
250
00:17:59,404 --> 00:18:02,314
That was during our war with Korea.
251
00:18:04,039 --> 00:18:07,871
Even if he is alive,
he is 66 years old.
252
00:18:08,241 --> 00:18:10,178
I doubt he can recover.
253
00:18:10,573 --> 00:18:12,207
Perhaps...
254
00:18:13,997 --> 00:18:16,514
he is only pretending to be ill.
255
00:18:17,065 --> 00:18:18,226
Pretending?
256
00:18:18,649 --> 00:18:20,806
Ieyasu is a sly schemer.
257
00:18:21,340 --> 00:18:24,497
He might be watching
to see what the daimyo will do.
258
00:18:27,454 --> 00:18:28,950
Sir Katsumoto!
259
00:18:29,927 --> 00:18:33,278
Find out...
the truth of the matter!
260
00:18:34,079 --> 00:18:36,403
Yes, My Lady.
261
00:18:50,065 --> 00:18:51,672
Hidetada...
262
00:18:55,820 --> 00:18:58,018
I'm here, Father.
263
00:18:58,598 --> 00:19:00,204
Come closer.
264
00:19:08,550 --> 00:19:12,269
If I should die...
265
00:19:12,806 --> 00:19:14,850
what will become of the country?
266
00:19:17,270 --> 00:19:18,675
Tell me.
267
00:19:22,993 --> 00:19:27,029
Without your guidance Father,
268
00:19:27,505 --> 00:19:30,241
the land could be
embroiled in war again.
269
00:19:30,615 --> 00:19:31,744
Fool!
270
00:19:33,286 --> 00:19:37,350
You are the Seii Taishogun!
271
00:19:38,317 --> 00:19:41,870
War?
That's unpardonable.
272
00:19:44,540 --> 00:19:48,872
What were all my hardships for?
273
00:19:49,496 --> 00:19:55,524
Why did I build Edo
and establish the shogunate?
274
00:19:57,636 --> 00:20:00,980
If you allow the shogunate to fall,
275
00:20:01,311 --> 00:20:06,103
I will come back from beyond
and haunt you.
276
00:20:08,823 --> 00:20:16,419
Listen carefully to what
I'm going to tell you.
277
00:20:19,717 --> 00:20:22,028
You, too, Masanobu!
278
00:20:27,769 --> 00:20:36,378
Shut Toyotomi Hideyori in
as a 650,000 koku daimyo.
279
00:20:39,892 --> 00:20:41,201
Yes, Father.
280
00:20:41,717 --> 00:20:44,910
Keep watch over the daimyo.
281
00:20:45,711 --> 00:20:50,502
Transfer any troublemakers
to another fief.
282
00:20:50,906 --> 00:20:53,969
Abolish those who defy you.
283
00:20:54,584 --> 00:20:58,031
Plant Outside Daimyo in a pot.
284
00:20:58,639 --> 00:21:00,665
In a pot, Father?
285
00:21:01,471 --> 00:21:06,252
Prevent them from taking root
in a single area.
286
00:21:06,613 --> 00:21:11,408
But, the Date and Shimazu
are different.
287
00:21:12,181 --> 00:21:15,379
Treat them as kinfolk...
288
00:21:15,736 --> 00:21:18,021
eventually to give them
the Matsudaira surname.
289
00:21:18,319 --> 00:21:19,480
Yes, Father.
290
00:21:19,956 --> 00:21:21,801
Next...
291
00:21:22,255 --> 00:21:24,893
in dealing with the Court...
292
00:21:25,096 --> 00:21:26,739
keep the reins on them.
293
00:21:28,895 --> 00:21:34,729
Should nobles gain strength,
suppress them.
294
00:21:36,218 --> 00:21:42,298
Should they weaken,
support them.
295
00:21:45,214 --> 00:21:48,799
Prince Hachijo's investiture
as Crown Prince...
296
00:21:49,083 --> 00:21:51,509
must never take place!
297
00:21:53,208 --> 00:21:58,037
Lend your support
to Prince Kotohito.
298
00:22:00,632 --> 00:22:07,509
Then, give my 5th daughter
Princess Ichi...
299
00:22:07,838 --> 00:22:15,238
to Prince Kotohito in marriage
to be Empress!
300
00:22:16,390 --> 00:22:18,632
- What?
- Princess Ichi?!
301
00:22:21,324 --> 00:22:26,347
What do you think?
Isn't that brilliant?
302
00:22:32,636 --> 00:22:35,519
But Father...
303
00:22:36,803 --> 00:22:39,013
I dare not...
304
00:22:47,207 --> 00:22:52,627
It is my dying wish!
305
00:22:57,282 --> 00:23:03,675
Ex-Shogun Ieyasu's plan
became clear in his last wish.
306
00:23:04,015 --> 00:23:06,990
It was to control daimyo
through force,
307
00:23:07,415 --> 00:23:11,268
and to control the nobles
through marriage.
308
00:23:12,157 --> 00:23:13,644
- Pardon me, My Lord...
- Louder!
309
00:23:16,726 --> 00:23:18,584
Why did Lord Ieyasu...
310
00:23:18,866 --> 00:23:24,598
object to Prince Hichijo's
ascension to Crown Prince?
311
00:23:25,664 --> 00:23:27,470
I don't know for certain.
312
00:23:28,186 --> 00:23:29,073
You don't know?!
313
00:23:29,743 --> 00:23:32,616
No, I really don't know,
314
00:23:32,953 --> 00:23:37,383
but Prince Hachijo was 19
and already had a wife!
315
00:23:37,755 --> 00:23:41,543
Prince Kotohito was only 12
and was not yet married!
316
00:23:42,636 --> 00:23:44,527
Ah, and that's where
Princess Ichi comes in?!
317
00:23:44,806 --> 00:23:46,036
Not so loud!
318
00:23:50,079 --> 00:23:54,682
In mid-January, Taiko Konoe Nobutada
called at Edo Castle.
319
00:23:55,635 --> 00:23:59,968
"Taiko" was the title
of a former Chancellor.
320
00:24:04,157 --> 00:24:06,450
Thank you for coming so far.
321
00:24:08,324 --> 00:24:11,264
Unfortunately,
the former Shogun is in bed ill.
322
00:24:12,390 --> 00:24:16,071
I, Hidetada,
will hear you in his stead.
323
00:24:18,899 --> 00:24:26,073
I was unaware of his illness.
Forgive my rudeness.
324
00:24:30,344 --> 00:24:34,588
Does this concern the investiture...
325
00:24:34,925 --> 00:24:37,362
of Prince Kotohito as Crown Prince?
326
00:24:38,547 --> 00:24:40,211
No, My Lord.
327
00:24:40,686 --> 00:24:46,726
His Majesty wishes
to make Prince Hachijo his heir.
328
00:24:47,078 --> 00:24:52,094
Oh...
I cannot understand that.
329
00:24:52,432 --> 00:24:57,528
We cannot object
to the Emperor's wishes.
330
00:24:58,416 --> 00:25:04,020
Prince Hachijo was the
adopted son of Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
331
00:25:06,046 --> 00:25:09,009
A vassal cannot become Emperor.
332
00:25:10,398 --> 00:25:14,027
It defies the way of Heaven.
333
00:25:14,523 --> 00:25:18,146
Please reconsider the matter.
334
00:25:19,138 --> 00:25:21,368
True, he was Hideyoshi's
adopted son,
335
00:25:21,705 --> 00:25:25,031
but when Lord Hideyori was born,
336
00:25:25,312 --> 00:25:28,690
the Hachijo house was established.
337
00:25:30,664 --> 00:25:32,832
If I may speak, Sire.
338
00:25:33,545 --> 00:25:35,534
Okubo?
Speak.
339
00:25:37,547 --> 00:25:41,157
Lord Ieyasu's second son,
Yuki Hideyasu,
340
00:25:41,593 --> 00:25:44,049
is the older brother
of the New Shogun.
341
00:25:44,446 --> 00:25:47,309
But, because he was adopted
by Lord Hideyoshi,
342
00:25:47,564 --> 00:25:49,913
he did not succeed
the Tokugawa house!
343
00:25:50,466 --> 00:25:54,040
Third son, Lord Hidetada,
became heir!
344
00:25:54,923 --> 00:25:59,563
The Imperial Household
is different than the Shogun.
345
00:25:59,969 --> 00:26:02,117
Please hold, Sir.
346
00:26:03,936 --> 00:26:08,423
If the Imperial House,
so revered by the people,
347
00:26:08,805 --> 00:26:11,216
should bend the ancient practices,
348
00:26:11,542 --> 00:26:14,589
the very foundation of governance
will be shaken.
349
00:26:14,963 --> 00:26:21,416
Aren't you being disloyal arguing
against the Imperial Envoy?
350
00:26:22,198 --> 00:26:26,405
Oh, this is all the more puzzling.
351
00:26:27,773 --> 00:26:31,124
If the Emperor
should err in judgment,
352
00:26:31,522 --> 00:26:36,683
shouldn't a true vassal
risk his life to correct him?
353
00:26:37,121 --> 00:26:38,987
How very true!
354
00:26:40,728 --> 00:26:43,199
Be it Chancellor or Regent,
355
00:26:43,733 --> 00:26:48,041
if a noble serving the Emperor
will not correct his errors,
356
00:26:48,472 --> 00:26:51,484
this, certainly, is disloyalty!
357
00:26:57,873 --> 00:27:00,972
I fear I have spoken rudely.
358
00:27:01,862 --> 00:27:04,702
Though I was dismissed as Chancellor,
359
00:27:05,058 --> 00:27:07,781
I have come to Edo...
360
00:27:08,231 --> 00:27:14,439
only to smooth relations
between Court and shogunate.
361
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,423
Forgive my rudeness, Sir.
362
00:27:18,814 --> 00:27:21,832
We are vassals of the Court.
363
00:27:22,853 --> 00:27:26,717
Though I say to you what is right
in the name of justice,
364
00:27:27,003 --> 00:27:31,995
my reverence of the Court
is not one bit diminished.
365
00:27:32,894 --> 00:27:38,796
We have no intention
of creating discord.
366
00:27:39,411 --> 00:27:43,567
I am relieved to hear your assurances.
367
00:27:45,711 --> 00:27:49,602
We shall discuss this another day.
368
00:27:49,978 --> 00:27:53,878
Thank you for coming, Sir.
369
00:28:04,574 --> 00:28:07,445
The lord of Owari Kiyosu Castle,
Matsudaira Tadayoshi,
370
00:28:07,709 --> 00:28:11,387
hastened to Edo to see his sick father.
371
00:28:14,333 --> 00:28:15,575
Stop!
372
00:28:18,643 --> 00:28:22,147
Tadayoshi has long
suffered from tumors.
373
00:28:22,420 --> 00:28:24,295
He was in extreme pain.
374
00:28:28,661 --> 00:28:29,860
Are you in pain?
375
00:28:31,259 --> 00:28:32,903
It is nothing.
376
00:28:36,286 --> 00:28:39,657
You didn't have to come if you were ill.
377
00:28:40,954 --> 00:28:44,792
This is my last duty as a son.
378
00:28:44,792 --> 00:28:45,964
What?
379
00:28:46,904 --> 00:28:50,593
I didn't wish to be late
for Father's funeral.
380
00:28:52,453 --> 00:28:54,005
Don't be absurd.
381
00:28:55,983 --> 00:28:58,169
How is he?
382
00:28:59,213 --> 00:29:02,944
Rest assured.
He has completely recovered.
383
00:29:03,795 --> 00:29:05,000
Is that true?
384
00:29:05,464 --> 00:29:07,357
Yes, he gets out of bed tomorrow.
385
00:29:08,252 --> 00:29:10,214
What a relief.
386
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,964
Right now, he is more concerned
about your illness.
387
00:29:17,335 --> 00:29:20,445
The situation has turned
completely around?
388
00:29:21,415 --> 00:29:26,127
You must rest and recover
just as Father has.
389
00:29:27,930 --> 00:29:29,837
Tadatsune, look after him.
390
00:29:30,257 --> 00:29:31,819
Yes, My Lord.
391
00:29:33,559 --> 00:29:41,226
Our father is invulnerable, isn't he?
392
00:29:44,081 --> 00:29:47,200
They say ill weeds thrive.
393
00:29:49,905 --> 00:29:50,877
Are you all right?
394
00:29:51,100 --> 00:29:52,579
Are you all right?
395
00:29:59,125 --> 00:30:05,893
He is forever complaining that
the New Shogun is too soft.
396
00:30:06,677 --> 00:30:09,505
Isn't that the reason
for his longevity?
397
00:30:09,761 --> 00:30:11,262
By no means, Sire.
398
00:30:12,724 --> 00:30:15,533
On occasion,
he offers words of praise.
399
00:30:16,288 --> 00:30:17,825
Not to me.
400
00:30:19,842 --> 00:30:22,787
Having the greatest father
in the country...
401
00:30:23,331 --> 00:30:25,619
is a hardship for his sons.
402
00:30:29,852 --> 00:30:33,415
I must share that hardship with you.
403
00:30:35,595 --> 00:30:36,791
Huh?
404
00:30:37,286 --> 00:30:40,364
In order to carry on
Father's great work,
405
00:30:40,617 --> 00:30:43,429
we brothers must work together.
406
00:30:44,815 --> 00:30:46,838
However...
407
00:30:47,915 --> 00:30:51,729
I will not live much longer.
408
00:30:54,687 --> 00:30:56,351
Don't be so weak!
409
00:30:58,723 --> 00:31:00,835
You are my only true brother!
410
00:31:01,564 --> 00:31:05,677
We are from the same mother.
We are but a year apart!
411
00:31:08,688 --> 00:31:13,076
I will never forgive you if you die!
412
00:31:44,327 --> 00:31:48,758
I am overjoyed
at your complete recovery, Father.
413
00:31:50,583 --> 00:31:51,615
Congratulations!
414
00:31:52,474 --> 00:31:54,110
Congratulations.
415
00:31:55,448 --> 00:31:57,058
So many of you!
416
00:31:57,390 --> 00:31:59,132
Who can tell children
from grandchildren?
417
00:31:59,687 --> 00:32:01,573
Or wet nurse from concubine?
418
00:32:02,023 --> 00:32:03,074
Fool!
419
00:32:03,537 --> 00:32:05,350
You can see that right away!
420
00:32:09,314 --> 00:32:12,502
Who thought I was going to die?
421
00:32:12,502 --> 00:32:13,610
Raise your hands.
422
00:32:15,294 --> 00:32:16,999
- Here...
- Never mind.
423
00:32:18,944 --> 00:32:20,553
Children are honest.
424
00:32:21,590 --> 00:32:24,412
I, too, thought I would die.
425
00:32:24,771 --> 00:32:26,080
Nonsense!
426
00:32:28,727 --> 00:32:30,887
I did not die because...
427
00:32:31,276 --> 00:32:33,640
since childhood, I've ridden
the plains on horseback...
428
00:32:33,885 --> 00:32:36,747
and made my body strong.
429
00:32:36,747 --> 00:32:38,793
Gorotamaru!
Are you listening?
430
00:32:39,222 --> 00:32:40,580
I am Yoshitoshi now!
431
00:32:41,072 --> 00:32:42,480
Oh, Yoshitoshi, so you are...
432
00:32:42,714 --> 00:32:43,870
I am Yorimasa!
433
00:32:44,103 --> 00:32:44,982
We know.
434
00:32:45,832 --> 00:32:47,888
And, the other reason was...
medicines!
435
00:32:48,516 --> 00:32:49,894
When you take ill,
436
00:32:50,138 --> 00:32:53,405
you must rest in bed
and take good medicines!
437
00:32:53,935 --> 00:32:59,783
I have rare medicines,
gifts from all over Japan.
438
00:33:01,107 --> 00:33:03,278
Also from Korea and Annam!
439
00:33:04,500 --> 00:33:09,061
Even some that I mix myself!
Right, Ochaa?
440
00:33:09,722 --> 00:33:12,466
Yes, your lumbago tonic
was very effective.
441
00:33:13,067 --> 00:33:15,767
Medicines also saved my life.
442
00:33:16,843 --> 00:33:19,039
They even saved Takechiyo's life.
443
00:33:19,632 --> 00:33:21,377
Thank you, Father.
444
00:33:21,847 --> 00:33:24,158
If any of you should become ill,
445
00:33:24,519 --> 00:33:26,268
don't hesitate to ask for some.
446
00:33:26,798 --> 00:33:29,738
My limbs are always cold lately.
447
00:33:30,088 --> 00:33:31,353
That is due to old age.
448
00:33:31,773 --> 00:33:32,534
Oh my...
449
00:33:36,237 --> 00:33:37,276
Tadateru...
450
00:33:38,348 --> 00:33:39,441
Yoshitoshi...
451
00:33:39,657 --> 00:33:40,665
Yorimasa...
452
00:33:40,878 --> 00:33:41,849
Ah, Tsuruchiyo...
453
00:33:42,151 --> 00:33:44,209
Takechiyo, Kunichiyo, Oichi...
454
00:33:44,821 --> 00:33:48,582
All of you, live a long life.
455
00:33:50,487 --> 00:33:54,161
I won't forgive anyone
who dies before his parents!
456
00:33:55,834 --> 00:33:57,478
You will be unfilial children!
457
00:33:59,666 --> 00:34:00,680
Where's your answer?!
458
00:34:01,512 --> 00:34:02,169
Yes.
459
00:34:02,730 --> 00:34:04,131
With more spirit!
460
00:34:04,817 --> 00:34:05,726
Yes!
461
00:34:12,211 --> 00:34:14,819
Oroku, help me blow my nose.
462
00:34:15,088 --> 00:34:16,055
Yes, My Lord.
463
00:34:17,944 --> 00:34:21,698
Ah...
I'll do it myself.
464
00:34:36,934 --> 00:34:41,718
Thank you for coming
to visit me, Father.
465
00:34:42,395 --> 00:34:44,404
You must not lose to an illness.
466
00:34:45,393 --> 00:34:48,463
You made the first strike
at Sekigahara!
467
00:34:49,441 --> 00:34:53,191
Fighting and defeating
the fierce Shimazu!
468
00:34:54,745 --> 00:34:59,248
The bullet wound I sustained
is my pride and joy.
469
00:34:59,949 --> 00:35:02,358
Oh, let me see it!
470
00:35:14,693 --> 00:35:18,766
Oh, it would make any samurai proud!
471
00:35:32,328 --> 00:35:33,598
I must tell you, Father.
472
00:35:34,022 --> 00:35:35,776
What is it?
473
00:35:37,273 --> 00:35:39,928
A report came from Kiyosu.
474
00:35:40,252 --> 00:35:43,973
On February 17 at the archery contest
at Sanju Sangendo,
475
00:35:44,177 --> 00:35:50,553
my vassal Ueda Kakuemon
hit the target 126 times!
476
00:35:52,411 --> 00:35:54,800
Following Asaoka Heibei last year,
477
00:35:55,162 --> 00:35:58,275
we have taken first place
for the second year!
478
00:35:59,325 --> 00:36:01,113
Excellent!
479
00:36:02,031 --> 00:36:05,839
Your encouragement of martial-arts
training has borne fruit.
480
00:36:06,631 --> 00:36:08,396
I commend you!
481
00:36:13,943 --> 00:36:17,242
Though I am unskilled,
I, Tadayoshi...
482
00:36:19,171 --> 00:36:20,832
I, Tadayoshi...
483
00:36:22,086 --> 00:36:26,079
I am the son of Tokugawa Ieyasu!
484
00:36:30,506 --> 00:36:32,209
Well spoken!
485
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,256
Edo Castle
486
00:36:49,685 --> 00:36:50,802
- Sire...
- Huh?
487
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:02,433
Tadayoshi?
488
00:37:05,505 --> 00:37:09,852
Tragically, Lord Tadayoshi
died on March 5th.
489
00:37:10,426 --> 00:37:12,649
He was 28 years old.
490
00:37:15,486 --> 00:37:20,617
Ieyasu received the news
on his way back to Sunpu.
491
00:37:25,424 --> 00:37:27,325
Tadayoshi...
492
00:37:31,798 --> 00:37:33,666
Tadayoshi...
493
00:37:48,651 --> 00:37:52,553
He died...
494
00:37:59,158 --> 00:38:02,370
He died instead of me!
495
00:38:23,068 --> 00:38:25,998
Osaka Castle
496
00:38:30,838 --> 00:38:32,148
Have you seen Hideyori?
497
00:38:33,937 --> 00:38:35,180
Where is Hideyori?
498
00:38:38,572 --> 00:38:39,199
Hideyori...
499
00:38:41,879 --> 00:38:42,803
What's the meaning of this?!
500
00:38:43,349 --> 00:38:44,447
Mother, you shouldn't barge in!
501
00:38:46,587 --> 00:38:47,665
You may go.
502
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:49,515
Forgive me!
503
00:38:59,978 --> 00:39:02,973
How quickly you've grown.
504
00:39:05,973 --> 00:39:08,443
Don't you pity Osen?
505
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:10,190
Why?
506
00:39:11,215 --> 00:39:12,941
Osen is still a child.
507
00:39:13,614 --> 00:39:16,340
Yesterday she was playing
with her dolls.
508
00:39:17,654 --> 00:39:20,787
If you don't like her,
we can send her back to the Tokugawa.
509
00:39:20,996 --> 00:39:21,801
Mother!
510
00:39:23,311 --> 00:39:25,176
Listen carefully.
511
00:39:27,457 --> 00:39:31,006
Lord Ieyasu is vassal to the Toyotomi.
512
00:39:32,489 --> 00:39:35,020
But they have changed.
513
00:39:35,478 --> 00:39:37,562
They blocked your appointment
to Chancellor...
514
00:39:37,947 --> 00:39:40,395
and made themselves
hereditary Shogun...
515
00:39:40,915 --> 00:39:43,056
by establishing a shogunate in Edo.
516
00:39:44,689 --> 00:39:46,279
If we allow this outrage,
517
00:39:46,659 --> 00:39:49,738
they will eventually
push the Toyotomi out.
518
00:39:53,145 --> 00:39:56,300
For the honor of the Toyotomi,
519
00:39:56,641 --> 00:40:00,946
we may have to fight them someday.
520
00:40:03,976 --> 00:40:09,761
In that case, why not divorce Osen
before she bears children?
521
00:40:10,304 --> 00:40:12,144
I must refuse, Mother.
522
00:40:12,420 --> 00:40:13,710
It's for Osen's own good.
523
00:40:14,257 --> 00:40:16,366
Osen married me...
524
00:40:16,771 --> 00:40:18,386
to bring Toyotomi and Tokugawa
closer together.
525
00:40:18,620 --> 00:40:20,100
That was true in the beginning.
526
00:40:20,509 --> 00:40:22,633
She was forced
to leave her parents...
527
00:40:23,042 --> 00:40:26,877
and serves bravely
in her own childish way.
528
00:40:28,198 --> 00:40:30,790
I could not bear to divorce her...
529
00:40:31,164 --> 00:40:33,544
over quarrels between adults.
530
00:40:36,434 --> 00:40:38,139
So be it, then.
531
00:40:39,812 --> 00:40:43,387
But she will always be
torn between two houses.
532
00:40:43,940 --> 00:40:45,808
If you pity her,
533
00:40:46,119 --> 00:40:49,781
yield and reconcile
with the Tokugawa!
534
00:40:51,856 --> 00:40:52,876
What?
535
00:40:53,264 --> 00:40:57,760
I will be satisfied
as a 650,000-koku daimyo!
536
00:41:01,298 --> 00:41:05,863
I never expected to hear
such words from you.
537
00:41:07,169 --> 00:41:08,943
Lord Hideyori!
538
00:41:09,468 --> 00:41:13,953
You are the son of
the great Taiko Hideyoshi!
539
00:41:22,394 --> 00:41:29,092
Tragically, for Ieyasu, 1607
became a year of grief and damnation.
540
00:41:29,543 --> 00:41:31,604
Kitanosho Castle
541
00:41:32,358 --> 00:41:35,658
Less than a month after
the death of 4th son Tadayoshi,
542
00:41:36,021 --> 00:41:40,689
2nd son Yuki Hideyasu
fell to illness.
543
00:41:54,319 --> 00:41:56,460
Hideyasu!
544
00:41:57,448 --> 00:41:58,743
Old Lord!
545
00:42:00,085 --> 00:42:03,043
Hideyasu's condition is critical!
546
00:42:04,382 --> 00:42:06,137
But he was recuperating at Kitanosho!
547
00:42:06,396 --> 00:42:07,059
Suden!
548
00:42:07,278 --> 00:42:10,955
Summon priests!
Pray for him!
549
00:42:11,716 --> 00:42:14,048
Pray for Hideyasu's recovery!
550
00:42:14,258 --> 00:42:15,510
Yes, My Lord!
551
00:42:18,566 --> 00:42:20,260
Heaven!
552
00:42:21,135 --> 00:42:25,032
Have you abandoned me?!
553
00:42:35,159 --> 00:42:37,498
We must save him!
554
00:42:39,526 --> 00:42:42,426
He must not die!
555
00:42:48,267 --> 00:42:49,852
No!
556
00:42:50,810 --> 00:42:54,723
