[Episode 95]

Excuse me.

I am here to see Deputy Bae.

Sir, Doctor Heo is here to see you.

Bring him here.

Yes, sir.

You may go.

Yes, sir.

Let us speak in private.

What's going on?

No idea.

Sir.

Sir.

What's the matter?

I have something urgent to discuss with you.

...an infamous smuggler in the area.

That scoundrel!

The constabulary is investigating and he'll be arrested soon!

There are many in the bureau who are eager to see Heo Jun fall.

This is how it ends for him?

Sir.

How is the tonic coming along?

It's almost ready.

It must be perfect.

Yes, sir.

I was born as a despised son of a concubine.

I lived recklessly because I was angry at my origin and frustrated with my life.

That is why I had no qualms about smuggling contrabands.

I met my wife, daughter of the then-exiled Lord Lee Jung-chan.

As I prepared the lord's funeral,

I felt sorry for his daughter and my sympathy turned to love.

Since I married a noble lady, I had to hide my true identity.

But I tried my best to live honestly. I tended patients the best I could.

The only reason a wretch like me could change was my wife.

Although I broke the law, I don't regret marrying her for a second.

You were lying when you said you were ready for any punishment?

No, sir. I take full responsibility.

But please allow me to be punished in another way.

I have important work to do as a doctor.

You have seen how innocent lives were lost because of the plague.

I have work to do for those who suffer.

I am not begging you for my personal fame and success.

My goal is to become a true doctor.

This will be much more difficult than idling away my time in prison.

Sir, please let me pay my dues this way.

I will work hard for dying patients.

At any time, if you think I am not being punished enough,

you can always imprison me then.

Sir...

You may go.

Are you still making tonics for the queen?

Yes, sir. She's being served with a tonic regularly.

What do you think, Doctor Yang?

She hasn't been pregnant for 10 years. It will be impossible, right?

Since the queen is still young, there is no need to jump to conclusions.

The king wants a son from the queen for reasons of legitimacy.

Take this into consideration and continue to take special care.

Yes, sir.

Milord, Doctor Kim and Doctor Song from the public hospital are here.

Send them in.

What is it?

We have to talk to you about Doctor Heo.

You should have come to me first!

Why did you break such news to Lord Sung without consulting me?

It was a very urgent matter.

Shut up!

The matter has gotten out of hand because of you two!

Why can't you think before you act?

Are you sure about this?

Doctor Heo smuggled goods and is married to a noble lady?

There has been an on-going investigation by the constabulary.

I don't think Heo Jun will be able to avoid punishment.

Why is it so hard to groom someone to be my successor?

This makes no sense at all! A criminal was a royal physician!

He made a fool out of the royal court. How could he have done this?

If we make this official, we might be held responsible as well.

If the constabulary is investigating, it is as good as official already.

We must act before they do.

We must punish him first before the constabulary.

That's the only way we can avoid being punished ourselves.

Goodness.

Is that all you are worried about, us being punished for this?

We have to find out the details first. We shouldn't be hasty.

Sir!

Sir! Terrible news!

Doctor Heo is being arrested.

What?

What is going on here? Why is he being arrested?

- Let's go. - Sir!

What is going on?

Do you really have to do this?

I'm sorry. I have no other choice.

Let's go.

Yes, sir!

- Oh, no! - Doctor!

What's going on? Why is Doctor Heo being arrested?

Please say something. Can we really do nothing but watch?

Ma'am! Ma'am! Look!

Isn't that Doctor Heo?

Go find out what happened.

Yes, ma'am.

Who is Dol-swe from Jincheon?

That's him, sir.

Bring him out.

Yes, sir!

What is it? What are you doing?

What's going on?

- Pipe down! - I won't go!

What are you doing?

I won't go. Please stop!

Get out!

Is this the man?

Yes, sir.

You've been pardoned. You may leave.

Sir?

- Let's go. - Sir.

What's going on? Why am I free?

The court has acknowledged your help in curing the plague.

Doctor Heo saved your life.

Let's go.

Go where?

He sent me to bring you.

You should be honored that an important man like me came.

Sir, thank you.

How do I ever repay him?

A word of advice, no, warning.

If you run amok like in Saneum, I'll have you locked up again.

Understand?

Yes, sir.

Let's go!

Oh! Oh!

What is it?

Where's the daughter of Lord Lee Jung-chan?

Oh, goodness!

Sir, you must be mistaken. There's no noblewoman here.

Arrest her.

Yes, sir.

Da-hee! Da-hee! Da-hee! Da-hee!

Oh, no! Ma'am! Ma'am! Ma'am!

Mother! Mother!

Ma'am! Ma'am!

Mother! Mother!

What do we do? Ma'am!

Take a look at our herbs. They cure any illness.

Even stomach cancer. I swear it!

Il-seo.

What?

What ingredients go in sibjeondaebotang?

Are you seriously asking?

Is your head an accessory? Are you a goldfish?

What's in there, empty space and cobwebs?

All these years selling herbs and you don't know?

I've never met such an ignorant fool in my life.

I take that back. There's Dol-swe from Jincheon.

I wonder who's more ignorant, him or you.

How can you compare me to that total blockhead?

Two peas in a pod!

Um, Il-seo. Over there.

Oh! Dol-swe.

Is he the devil? We just spoke of him.

Oh-keun, what's going on?

You guys will have to take him in.

- What? - Eh?

Why?

Doctor Heo says so. Ask him for details.

Go on, say hello.

How've you been?

The look in his eyes gives me shivers and a bad feeling overall.

Hey! Hey! Il-seo!

Terrible! Terrible news!

No more terrible news, please.

Da-hee was dragged away by officers and Doctor Heo's mother fainted!

What?

What do you mean? Why was she arrested?

How should I know?

Yang-tae, get going. Go tell Doctor Heo.

Right.

Oh no.

There's no time. Let's get going.

Yes, let's go.

What do you mean the prince is ill?

He has a fever. It must be a cold.

Send for Doctor Heo right away.

Yes, Milady.

Milady...

Doctor Heo is not at the public hospital.

What do you mean he's not there?

Answer him.

He was arrested earlier today.

Da-hee...

Da-hee.

Da-hee!

Da-hee!

Jun.

Da-hee.

Jun.

Da-hee. Da-hee.

Da-hee! Da-hee!

Did you find out?

Yes, we saw him being put into the prison cell.

Even his wife was arrested.

Is that so?

Alright, you're excused.

Um, sir?

Isn't Doctor Heo your brother? What happened between you two?

Yes, sir.

Why do you want to know?

Leave me.

Yes, sir.

Accomplishments or not, you won't get away unpunished.

What is going on here? Why are they arresting Doctor Heo?

Sir!

Sir, you are good friends with the deputy.

If you know something, please tell us.

It's because of Doctor Heo's past.

What do you mean, sir?

He smuggled contraband when he was in Yongcheon.

Smuggle contraband? Doctor Heo?

He hid a man accused of treason and married his daughter.

Doctor Heo's wife is the daughter of a nobleman.

Are you sure about this?

Yes, ma'am.

You'll be punished if you're lying.

I'm not making this up.

I overheard what the doctors were saying.

If true, it's most unfortunate.

Can you believe he smuggled contraband?

He really must be a bad man.

Guess you never really know a person.

Who would have thought that he was hiding such a criminal past?

Drink this.

Can you believe he smuggled contraband?

He really must be a bad man.

Guess you never really know a person.

Who would have thought that he was hiding such a criminal past?

Excuse me.

Where is Doctor Heo?

He is not here.

Then where is he?

He can't tend patients for a while, so find another doctor.

Huh?

Lady Ye-jin!

What brings you?

I'm here for Jun.

But why can't he tend on patients for a while?

Was he arrested?

How did you know?

Lady Da-hee was also arrested earlier.

And his mother fainted from shock.

Oh no! Ma'am, wake up!

Ma'am.

Oh, this is crazy.

You worked at a clinic. Take a look at her.

Uh...well...

Please, he's a quack.

I admit I'm lacking, but that's too harsh.

What's taking Yang-tae so long?

I'm gonna have a heart attack. Go find Doctor Heo!

All right.

Il-seo!

- He's here! - There he is!

Where is Jun?

Please come in, Milady.

Lady?

Huh?

Lady Ye-jin!

Where's Doctor Heo?

He was arrested.

What?

- Him, too? - This is terrible.

- Please treat her. - Yes.

Please help her. This is so terrible.

Oh no.

Oh! Oh!

Ma'am, are you awake?

Jun. Where is my son?

Will you take me to the constabulary?

You can't leave home in this condition.

Ma'am, please calm down.

What do we do? Oh, no...

Ma'am, please calm down. What if you faint again?

Poor Kyum. Both his parents were arrested.

That poor thing.

Is that true?

Yes, the constabulary was investigating him.

And his mother fainted on the spot.

Mother, what do we do?

It was bound to happen someday.

Doctor Man-kyung Kim is here, sir.

Show him in.

Yes, sir.

Have a seat.

Did you really have to do this?

If you had people's best interest in mind, you should have forgiven Doctor Heo.

You should've let him treat more patients and find more cures for them.

You are right.

Then why did you do it?

I was going to bury the matter, but I couldn't.

I arrested him because I was ordered to.

You were ordered to?

It was an order from Interior Minister Jung Sung-pil.

How did he know about his past?

I have no idea.

That is not what's important right now.

What is done is done, and there's nothing we can do.

He will be stripped of his rank and face a serious punishment.

Consider his accomplishments and pardon his crime.

How can you protect that criminal?

Tell him that I'm here.

He's with Lady In-bin.

I will excuse myself.

I'm fine.

He is a talented doctor. Please help him to be pardoned.

It is unforgivable that a criminal has been treating the royal family.

It's looking bad. Things have already snowballed.

His Majesty had to give in.
