Brought to you by jss jumong subbing squad.

It'll take half a day to one day until the buyeo palace finds out what we did.

We must go as far as we can.

Yes.

- Sang-chun! Je-soo! Myungil! - Yes!

Take the seniors and the children to the biryu river.

There should be a ferry for you.

The army that'll chase you will never guess you'll be there.

Taking this way will take longer, but it'll be safe.

Go down the biryu river and come to mt. Bong-ye.

Yes.

Prince.

We're ready to go.

We're now leaving for Chang'an.

Since we're leaving earlier than we expected,

we'll be marching as fast as we can.

If anyone disrupts or tries to run away, he will be punished.

Separate the seniors and the children.

Yes.

Separate the seniors and the children!

Yes.

They'll be taking an easier and safer route.

Don't worry!

How did it go?

He left with the migrants.

It'll take a day before the buyeo palace finds out that ju-mong is gone.

If he gets far enough to escape the buyeo army before that, he'll be fine.

I heard the migrants are with seniors and children.

He can't march fast with them around.

I didn't see any seniors or children with prince ju-mong.

He probably took care of it.

In order to stop na-ru and the royal guards from joining the pursuing army,

we need to get far from the buyeo palace.

Bring na-ru to me.

Yes.

Did you call me?

Now we'll go to the tae bong-San hot spring.

Your majesty, there are many nice hot Springs near buyeo.

Tae bong-San is near heng-in country. If they attack us, I can't guarantee your majesty's safety.

So you're going against my order?

Your majesty, I'm only concerned about your safety.

You ingrate!

You bastard, are you insulting me with dae-so's power on your shoulder?

Your majesty.

We'll leave immediately, so go get ready.

Yes.

Your highness, it's time to go.

Did you check outside?

Yes, it is clear.

Let's go.

Where are you going so late at night?

I have some business to take care of.

Out of my way.

I will, if you tell me what your business is.

That's none of your concern.

Get her!

Yes!

What do you think you're doing?

Let me go!

She should be out by now.

What's taking her so long?

Maybe something went wrong?

Don't say that!

What if we get there late?

We better go inside.

What?

Why don't we just wait?

Just be quiet and follow me.

Mo pal-mo!

I arrested her while she was trying to leave.

Why are you doing this to me?

Who were you trying to see outside the palace?

I only wanted to take a walk because I felt stuffy in here.

Open her bag.

Why did you pack your clothes?

Tell me the truth.

I don't have to tell your highness anything.

What?

Do you dare disregard the ranks of the royal family?

If you care so much about the royal ranks, why are you being so rude?

If you don't let me go, I'll tell his majesty on you.

His majesty?

Even if he finds out, he can't do anything.

Don't you know who has the power here?

Hao-chen!

Yes, your highness.

Lock ye soya up in her chambers and keep a watch on her.

Don't tell his royal highness until I say so.

Yes.

Escort her to her chambers!

Yes.

Your highness, what do we do now?

We are already late to meet mu-song and mo pal-mo.

Leader, leader. How did it go?

We have a big problem. I don't know why but the soldiers are guarding her highness.

She must be under house arrest.

What?

What do we do now?

As long as there are soldiers, she can't get out of there.

We can't stay here any longer.

How can we face prince ju-mong if we don't bring her? What do we do?

Although his majesty has expanded our territory through conquests,

we're losing influence over our subject states and tribes.

That's because we were too lenient on them.

It's not too late to send soldiers and...

General heuk-chi!

When are you going to stop talking about war?

Even if we win the war, it'll be a big burden on buyeo.

His royal highness is right.

We can't finance a war right now.

We, buyeo, must find a way to be financially strong without war.

As his royal highness did with jolbon,

send diplomats to each clan's chief to demand tax for protection.

If we do that, in two years, we'll be strong financially.

When we are strong enough then, your royal highness, that's when we can go to war.

Foreign minister.

Yes, your royal highness.

Send the diplomats to each clan, and demand them to pay tax to us.

Yes, your royal highness.

Your royal highness.

What is it?

Prince ju-mong left for hyeon-to city with the migrants.

What?

Go and find out what's going on.

Yes, your royal highness!

Your royal highness. What's going on?

I'm going to find out.

Your royal highness.

I caught ye soya trying to escape the palace.

She even packed her belongings.

I'm sure prince ju-mong plotted this ahead of time.

Go and bring the leader, mo pal-mo, to me!

Yes.

Let's go!

Find the ironware workshop leader!

Yes.

Search.

Yes.

Where is he?

I haven't seen him the whole day.

Go outside the palace and find mo pal-mo!

Yes!

They found out.

Let's run.

What about her highness?

What if we get killed?

We searched all over, but couldn't find mo pal-mo.

Why, I ought to...

Get the troops.

I'm going after them myself.

Yes, your royal highness!

Prince!

The migrants are tired from the march.

Why don't we camp out for the night?

Keep marching until I say otherwise.

Yes.

Keep marching!

Keep a close watch on him.

If you think he knows, then eliminate him.

Yes.

We're taking a break.

Gather the soldiers.

Yes.

Drop your weapons.

Your highness. What are you doing?

I don't want to kill you guys.

I said, drop your swords!

On your knees.

Now!

I am ju-mong, the buyeo prince.

But from now on, I am not a buyeo prince.

I'll be commander hae mo-su's successor as the leader of the da-mul army.

I'm not going to make slaves out of you.

I'm not hauling you. I'm going to build a nation with you.

Hurray!

Hurray!

Prince, why are you doing this?

I don't want to kill you.

Go back to buyeo.

An army is probably after us right now.

You and the migrants will all be dead.

You wretch!

That's none of your concern!

Take the soldiers and get out of here!

Get up.

Get out of my sight, before I kill you!

- Bring me the map. - Yes.

Prince ju-mong will either cross the hwi-bal river or the ju-ak Ridge.

He can't cross the hwi-bal river without a boat.

- We're going to ju-ak Ridge. - Yes, your royal highness.

I don't know if we can cross the hwi-bal river to escape.

If we take the mountain, the army will come after us.

Don't worry.

I prepared a boat at the hwi-bal river.

What?

Everything will be ready at this place.

If we want all the migrants to cross the river, we must shake off the buyeo army.

I doubt they know that we've got boats.

They probably went to the mountains.

We have to stop them.

We're going to send the migrants ahead of us, and fight the buyeo army.

We have fought against the iron army.

We can take them on.

That's right!

We have plenty of time to cross the river!

Tell the guards to lead the migrants to the hwi-bal river.

We're going to the ju-ak Ridge.

Yes!

Let's go.

Go after them!

Prince! More soldiers are coming our way.

You have to get out of here.

Your royal highness!

I'm fine.

Go after them!

- We're defending this place until all the migrants cross the river. - Yes.

Prince!

They're here.

Shoot the arrows!

Shoot!

Get me a boat!

Your royal highness! It's too late to go after them.

You're severely sounded.

We must go back to buyeo for treatment.

I said, get me a boat!

Your royal highness, all the boats are on the other side of the river.

Hyeop-Bo.

Go to mt. Bong-ye with the bodyguards and the migrants.

- I have to go get mo pal-mo. - Yes

- let's go. - See you later.

Everyone gather.

We're going to mt. Bong-ye.

Follow me.

This is the place.

Leader!

Prince.

Where's her highness?

Where is she?

Well...

We couldn't bring her.

Tell us what happened.

We risked our lives to get into the buyeo palace because she didn't come outside.

There were already guards at her chamber.

The soldiers were searching all over the place to find mo pal-mo.

We couldn't do anything about it.

Prince, just kill me.

How can you leave her behind?!

It's not like we did it on purpose.

Prince, I'll get her.

Yes, prince.

Prince, you can leave with the migrants.

Oh-yi and I will go get her highness.

Ju-mong.

When I was young, I tried to fuifill a great mission.

But I couidn't even keep a promise I made to a woman to protect her for life.

You need to be different.

How can you protect tens of thousands of citizens,

if you can't even protect the one person next to you?

When hae mo-su left to save the migrants, he never came back.

I had to wait for him for many, many years.

Don't make me wait for you.

Let's go to mt. Bong-ye.

Prince!

I wish I can take my wife with me, but the migrants are my priority right now.

I'll go and save her.

Send me.

As long as we're alive, we'll have a chance to see each other.

Let's go.

Ma oo-ryeong's foresight was correct.

Ju-mong has an evil aura over buyeo.

The problem is the 3-legged bird that's targeting buyeo.

Prince ju-mong left buyeo now, but one day he'll come back and attack buyeo.

He left with a few hundred refugees. How is he able to attack buyeo?

Your majesty,

a long time ago general hae mo-su only had a few hundred soldiers,

yet the hans were afraid of them.

If ju-mong is hae mo-su's son,

we can never underestimate him.

Your majesty, prince dae-so came back.

How did it go?

Did he arrest ju-mong and the refugees?

Your majesty, that is...

Dae-so.

Mother.

Did you get hurt?

It's not a severe wound. Don't worry.

Don't just stand there! Go and get him a doctor!

I'm fine.

Bring ye soya to me!

Yes.

Did you know that ju-mong planned on leaving buyeo with the migrants?

Yes.

Where were you supposed to meet him?

I'll ask you again.

Where were you going to meet him?

Answer me.

If you don't, I'll kill you.

Where did he go?!

Kill me.

You wretch!

Your royal highness!

Calm down.

Don't kill our hostage to get prince ju-mong.

You can kill her after we get him.

Imprison her!

Yes.

You guys are so pathetic.

What were you guys doing while ju-mong was plotting this?

Behead the soldiers who couldn't stop ju-mong ahead of time.

Your majesty, prince ju-mong took the soldiers because he was ordered to find salt.

How could anyone have guessed?

Shut up!

Don't call him a prince in front of me.

Court minister.

Yes, your royal highness.

Like mother said, behead the soldiers who couldn't stop ju-mong's conspiracy.

Yes.

Your royal highness, we must first find where the migrants have fled to.

We should send envoys to hyeon-to city, ok-jeo, dong-ye, jol-bon, Yang-maek, ku-da, and kae-ma

to find their whereabouts.

Foreign minister! Send an envoy to quest help.

Yes, your royal highness.

Your royal highness.

Why do you think commander na-ru ended up escorting his majesty

instead of transporting the migrants?

I heard his majesty went to the hot Springs because lady yoo-hwa was ill.

He probably planned it ahead with prince ju-mong.

The men who escorted his majesty were outstanding royal guards.

They were sent to disperse the manpower in the palace.

Your royal highness, you let his majesty and prince ju-mong toy around with you.

What's the matter?

This is a letter from his royal highness to you.

What's the matter?

You must return to the buyeo palace.

Lady yoo-hwa has not recovered yet.

Your majesty, you need to get back.

I asked, what's the matter?

Prince ju-mong has left buyeo with the migrants.

He left buyeo?

Did he go to Chang'an?

No, he did not go to Chang'an. He ran off with them.

Your majesty, must get back immediately.

Isn't dae-so governing buyeo?

There's nothing for me to do even if I get back.

I'll continue to stay here with the lady.

Your majesty, you need to get back.

You wretch!

Do you want to die?

Your job is to guard me and the lady.

Get out.

Your majesty.

I told you ju-mong will do it.

I think he's safely out of buyeo.

Don't worry.

This is a letter from lady sul-LAN.

What's the matter?

Ju-mong ran off with the migrants and escaped buyeo.

The people at Chang'an will be waiting for their slaves.

What should we do?

I should blame dae-so for everything, but I'll let him go because of sul-LAN.

Dong-sun.

Yes, governor.

I better send the joseon migrants in hyeon-to city to Chang'an instead.

- Act fast. - Yes

- wang so-mun. - Yes, governor

if ju-mong took the migrants, he'll come back to attack hyeon-to city later.

We must find and exterminate them.

I'll order our men to search where they might hide.

Yeo mi-eul.

Byu ri-ha saw the three-legged bird flying.

Sounds like prince ju-mong has left buyeo.

Yes, the three-legged bird flapped its wings away from the buyeo sun.

So-ryeong.

Yes?

- Get ready to leave gyehru. - Yes

are you there, cheol-LAN?

Cheol-LAN.

Yes?

- Tell yeon ta-bal that I'd like to see him. - Yes.

Yeo mi-eul.

Like you said, prince ju-mong has left buyeo with the migrants.

I know.

I think the buyeo palace is in chaos because of that.

Where's chief so seo-no?

She went to buyeo to take care of the tribute issues.

Like I said before, I have to leave gyehru now.

Although prince ju-mong has safely escaped buyeo,

the real dangers are about to begin.

Dae-so, as well as all the tribes and

nations under buyeo's influence are probably out to get him.

I'm sorry that you have to go, but I can't do much about your fate.

One of these days, gyehru will join prince ju-mong.

Until then, stay healthy.

What?

Took care of the tributes? How did gyehru manage to take care of all those tributes?

With salt.

Salt?

Yes.

She's going to offer salt, instead of the tribute items.

Gyehru has an enormous amount of salt,

thanks to chief so seo-no's last journey to go-San nation.

We can't pressure gyehru with the tributes anymore.

Then we have to take them over by force.

Chang'an.

You're very pretty.

Damn you.

You may be pretty, but you're still no match for the buyeo girls.

No matter how much I drink, no matter how much you try,

I can't fill this void in my heart.

Prince.

What's the matter?

There has been trouble in buyeo.

What trouble?

Prince ju-mong ran away from buyeo with the migrants.

What?

Prince.

Good.

That pathetic fool finally did something right.

You're very pretty.

I can only feel gloominess in the buyeo palace.

The palace is probably covered by prince dae-so's anger.

Have a seat.

What brings you to buyeo?

I'm here to pay the tributes you've demanded from jolbon.

That's a very hefty amount of goods.

I don't know how you managed to get them.

I brought salt instead of the tribute items.

I know buyeo is short on salt because there is no salt coming from go-San.

I'm sure you'll find salt more useful than silk or grains.

Your royal highness.

I have something to tell you.

Buyeo's supply of salt is from our troop's journey to go-San.

From now on, all of buyeo's salt will be supplied through us,

at a reasonable price.

What are you talking about?

Ju-mong secured the go-San salt.

That's buyeo's property.

Once go-San finds out that prince ju-mong has left buyeo,

they won't give it to you.

I know what buyeo has gone through because of salt.

If you want to continue receiving a secure supply of salt, you'll need to leave it to us.

Your royal highness.

His majesty is back.

How's everything at the buyeo palace?

Your majesty knows what happened while you were away.

Ju-mong ran off with the migrants.

He has betrayed me with your majesty's help.

With my help?

What do you mean?

Didn't you go on that outing to help ju-mong run away?

I don't know what you're talking about.

If you're so sure, then why did you make commander na-ru escort me?

I never asked for it.

Just wait and see.

I'll find him for sure.

I will behead him in front of your majesty.

Just wait and see.

Your highness.

We're in trouble.

What's the matter?

Her highness, ye soya, couldn't leave buyeo.

She's in prison.

Ye soya.

Your highness.

Don't just stand there!

Get me a doctor!

How is she?

Your highness...

What's the matter?

Her highness, ye soya, is pregnant.

Your highness, she's awake.

Can you recognize me?

Your highness...

Why... why are you locked up in here?

Why?

Your highness...

This is the place.

Oh-yi.

Raise this flag.

Yes!

This land is the da-mul army's land!

Jumong is not your flesh and blood

why are you still protecting him?

You killed jumong's father

please allow me to stay here...

And assist your highness

you killed his father

what more do you expect from him

if you can capture jumong

I will reward you handsomely

even without governor's request

I would still capture him...

With my own hands

chief songyang is gathering the soldiers

he must be planning...

To attack keru

we have located where jumong is hiding

I want to lead the army myself to get them

please send some iron cavalries as reinforcements

some talents will prove useful...

To your highness's building of a new nation

find those talents...

And make them your subjects
