Brought to you by WITH S2 Written In The Heavens Subbing Squad
Should we so austerely abide by the bone rank system,
he certainly would remain so.
But...
- Lord Chunchu... - The bone rank system...
is a barbaric vestige of the past.
Refrain from such vilipending parlance, Milord!
That which you so disdainfully abhor is our country's very foundation!
- How could you... - Juvenile fatuity...
might influence my views and becloud my judgment,
but nowhere else have I ever seen such a barbaric and frivolous policy.
Not the Middle Kingdom, nor the Western Regions.
Never before have I ever heard of it!
~ Episode 41 ~
Your Highness.
How could Lord Chunchu deport himself in that manner?
Does not this mean he will become a mere pawn of Mishil?
Thinking of how Princess Cheonmyeong perished...
Lord Chunchu cannot behave in this manner.
You cannot allow him to be so disdainfully exploited by Mishil.
What is Bidam doing?
Was he not in charge of tutoring him?
Are you telling me he was not aware of this all?
Lord Chunchu!
How could you do this?
Are you aware of what you just did?
- Mishil is using you, and... - Your Highness.
Do you realize...
what just happened?
And...
Are you also aware of what from now on...
is going to happen?
You are being used by Mishil!
And if...
How could this happen?
Does this not imply Lord Chunchu is now going to be Mishil's puppet?
There is no way Lord Chunchu would be incognizant of Your Majesty's wishes,
this does not make any sense.
Mishil...
She is indeed a daunting individual.
She is exploiting that young and heedless boy.
How could this...
How could this befall Cheonmyeong's son?
Yongchun.
Yes.
Why are you keeping quiet?
What is dominating your thoughts?
Sire...
Your humble servant, Yongchun,
daringly asks your consent to offer you words of counsel.
I believe Lord Chunchu's candidacy as successor...
is more than legitimate.
Lord Yongchun!
What are you trying to say?
Anyhow, he is still the legitimate son of Princess Cheonmyeong.
Should we have not considered him as the foremost candidate?
He is going to join Boryang from Mishil's clan in conjugal ties.
An in-law of Mishil's clan...
would become our ruler.
Before he is an in-law of Mishil,
he is His Majesty's blood descendant.
Lord Yongchun!
Sire.
Do not let impulsive whims becloud your judgment.
No matter whether Mishil is behind his candidacy or not,
his enthronement will eventually benefit us all.
And through Lord Chunchu, we could also placate our hostilities with Mishil.
The bone rank system is a barbaric vestige of the past.
Juvenile fatuity might influence my views and becloud my judgment,
but nowhere else have I ever seen such a barbaric and frivolous policy.
Not the Middle Kingdom, nor the Western Regions.
Never before have I ever heard of it!
Once again, I swept through the kind of impenetrable fortress...
I could never even imagine, that of the bone rank system.
And with such ease...
Such ease...
I, Princess Deokman, shall not marry,
and will become the successor and heir to our nation's throne.
Once again, I paved what a simple woman could never imagine,
the way to the throne. Hegemony itself.
Because Your Highness...
is not our people's legitimate ruler.
Did one era meet its conclusion?
Deokman... Chunchu.
Deokman... Deokman!
Announce my presence.
Yes, Your Highness.
- How could you utter such words? - Sire...
Stop!
Not only he is a legitimate blood descendant of His Majesty,
but also Her Highness Princess Cheonmyeong's son.
How could you...
Did you hear a single mendacious utterance?
More than a female ruling us all,
would not Lord Chunchu's enthronement be much easier to accept?
He is the one and only son Princess Cheonmyeong left behind.
Yes, you are correct.
But he also happens to be your nephew.
Is that not the case?
He is the son of your older brother, Lord Yongsu.
So it is evident Lord Chunchu would be your nephew.
Are you...
implying personal whims are guiding my words?
Is that what you are thinking?
Are you not engaging in spurious parlance?
Give it a rest!
What is this obloquious deportment?
Her Highness seeks audience.
I told you I knew nothing myself.
I swear.
Trust me... How could I possibly know?
I never left this place, and Lord Chunchu never came.
I knew something was up...
but I never imagined it would be this.
I knew nothing, I told you.
Look me in the eyes.
They show the utmost sincerity, right?
You are not...
scheming behind my back, are you?
How could I?!
I entrusted my life to you...
I...
know very well there is nary a hint of sincerity in you.
What's wrong with you?
So...
that is why I trust you.
Until you meet someone much more daunting than me,
you will never betray me, I trust?!
What now?
I told you.
If you really are going to help that Deokman...
Have a death wish?!
Ahhh...
Stop with those ominous gazes, will you?
All right, fine.
If you really plan to help that princess to the throne,
Lord Chunchu will be her most daunting foe.
I never imagined he would take a step forward this fast.
But now that he has done it,
would it not be the perfect opportunity to vanquish him?
Think about it.
Rule of might knows no blood ties.
But this time her foe is a nephew she is barely acquainted with?
What would concern her?
Ehh...
What could you possibly know about Her Highness?
Well...
Should Chunchu openly contend her,
she will refuse to even quibble with him.
Never.
There is no reason why I should contend with Chunchu.
And I shall never allow that to happen.
Deokman!
Hence,
nothing shall importune Lord Yongchun as well.
Then...
Are you just going to let Mishil trample upon you?
Your Highness.
This is without a doubt one of Mishil's subterfuges.
But you still...
are going to let her gain what she wishes for?
What Mishil wishes...
is for Chunchu and me to be in conflict.
Those will be Mishil's true motives.
So, how do you plan to react?
Should worst come to worst,
I shall give up.
But, Your Highness...
I am merely concerned about Lord Chunchu's future.
How could she so disdainfully exploit...
someone so young and unversed in politics?
I am fine.
Your Highness.
You were here?
Everyone is in tumult.
Why...
Your Highness.
What did you do here?
What have I been doing?
For all this time.
Lord Chunchu mentioned the bone rank system,
did he by any chance discuss it with you beforehand?
What could I have been doing? I...
Your Highness.
Are you all right?
I am feeling slightly indisposed.
I must enjoy some respite.
Let go... Let go!
I told you I would go talk to him!
Go where?!
What's wrong with you?
What are you trying to accomplish, meeting Lord Chunchu firsthand?
Ahh... Let go, let go.
I said let go!
Lord Chunchu and I are very close.
And he's certainly not the kind of person you imagine.
Close what?! You just exchanged a few words.
You dolt...
Might have been a short time, but something connected between us!
But forget that,
how can Princess Cheonmyeong's son become a pawn of Mishil?
Tell me about it.
It really makes no sense.
Think of the shrine Princess Deokman built, and the devotion she showed.
Think of how disheartened she will feel.
Lady Mishil took things too far.
That is why I said I will go, uh?!
And talk to Lord Chunchu or whatever they call him, that's what.
Say what? You're going to meet Lord Chunchu?
Sure, you fool.
I'll be clear, "That is inadmissible, uh?!"
"Nobody would condone such behavior."
Uh?!
What is the point of earning yourself a hefty punishment with your gasconades?
You little dunce... gasconades?!
Gasconades?!
Come here, you dunce...
Yushin Rang...
Yushin Rang, Yushin Rang... No. I mean...
Your Excellency.
Does this make any sense?
Lord Chunchu... Lord Chunchu clamored he will become successor.
Clamored what? Mishil must have sent him there.
Since we're there, Her Highness should take this opportunity and vanquish them once and for all.
Indeed, of course she should!
He might be Princess Cheonmyeong's son, but he started the hostilities.
That is out of the question.
Why?
Should one of the Gaeyang stars ascend to the heavens,
the keeper of Gaeyang shall once again kindle creation.
It was this very prophecy which made her princess.
And?!
The Gaeyang star ascending to the heavens signifies Princess Cheonmyeong,
while the second keeper of Gaeyang is Princess Deokman.
Hence, being in a conflict with Lord Chunchu...
would be like the two Gaeyang stars engaging in a duel.
Fighting with each other's very foundation.
And that is what Mishil's stratagem aims to achieve.
That is why Mishil took things too far!
Of all the people she could use, Princess Cheonmyeong's son?!
Uh?! Was there really no one else?!
She had Lord Sejong, Lord Seolwon...
I ought to...
Lord Seolwon?!
- Lord Sejong. - With all those spouses, sons...
Aigoo...
What is it?
Why are you staring at me like that?
Right!
Right...
Why could I not think of that?
What's with him?
I must have given him another stratagem on a silver platter?!
He is the one and only son Princess Cheonmyeong left behind.
But he also happens to be your nephew.
Is this it?
Was this Mishil's stratagem?!
Dissension.
Was she trying to foment dissension between us?
Father... You made a covenant with her last night, I trust?
Mother will do exactly that, right?
Yes.
The situation has completely changed.
For there were no sacred bone males,
you had a chance to gain the throne.
And that is what I attempted to accomplish.
Had Deokman gone ahead with her nuptials, whomever married her would be of true bone,
so keen maneuvering or removing him altogether is all we needed.
However...
If Deokman clamors for the throne firsthand,
then we will lose any possibility to do so, and just cause along with it.
So is that why you pushed for Chunchu to become successor?
Nothing I feel for you has changed in any way.
May you trust me, and follow my lead.
It's not that I do not understand the situation,
and you are certainly correct.
However...
You must assure me of at least one thing.
Go ahead and tell me.
Chunchu must not be allowed to marry Boryang, from Seolwon's clan.
Give up on that.
Chunchu must marry someone from our clan.
I will do as you wish.
You have my word.
I asked you if she promised!
She said so herself.
Aigoo... Still...
It's not like she gave you written confirmation.
You don't believe your own mother?
I do, of course I do!
Still...
If it's Lord Seolwon we are talking about, then I don't.
How can we ever predict what he could be scheming?
Should Chunchu inherit the throne,
and engage in conjugal ties with Boryang from Lord Seolwon's clan,
Lord Seolwon would become in-laws with the king,
and one of immense power at that.
How are you going to deal with that?
It is exactly because it cannot happen that she promised!
Should that happen,
it could spell damnation for our entire clan.
It's not like Her Highness and I will live forever...
This won't do it.
I will have to meet my mother, and tell her firsthand.
Sister.
Did things not go exactly as you planned anyhow?
When Lord Chunchu made his speech,
Princess Deokman and His Majesty turned ghastly pale.
However, what Lord Chunchu said about the bone rank system...
even surprised myself!
Should we call it juvenile fatuity,
or was it just his having grown outside the royal family's tutelage?!
- Still, be that as it may... - You may leave.
What?
Your Highness.
I am fine.
I just wish to remain alone.
What are you going to do?
Will you contend with Lord Chunchu?
During the eclipse, I felt elated,
and the mere thought of engaging in an open conflict with Mishil...
whelmed me with trepidation.
But...
seeing her use Lord Chunchu daunted me.
No matter how young Lord Chunchu is,
how could he behave in that manner?
This must be the price to pay for contending with Mishil.
I don't really know...
how to react to this.
The Pungwolju seeks audience.
You're here.
Have a seat.
Your Highness.
Something is perturbing me.
What?
For many moons, Mishil attempted to help Lord Sejong to the throne, and thus become Queen.
And Lord Sejong himself used Mishil to gain that throne.
But, not only she pushed forth Lord Chunchu's candidacy,
she is also advocating for his conjugal ties with Boryang.
How could Lord Sejong accept all this?
Is this something he can so gleefully accept?
The bone rank system...
is a barbaric vestige of the past.
I will become the successor and heir to our nation's throne.
I thought it was merely a subterfuge by Mishil to force a conflict out of us...
Yes, there are two possibilities.
One is her intent to divide us...
and herald the encumbering prospect of a conflict between you and Lord Chunchu,
which was nothing but a facade.
And, the second?
As for the second, it is so unthinkable...
I feel it hard to believe it myself,
and I still think it could never happen, but...
What is it?
Go ahead and tell me.
The second... The second possibility...
I seek audience with Her Highness.
She ordered me not to allow entrance to anyone.
What?!
Don't you know whom you're facing?
Move away!
You're here?
Did you come to meet Her Highness?
I did meet her, but as she wanted some solitude, I was just leaving.
Lord Seolwon.
You're not scheming something, are you?
What are you implying? "Scheming something"?!
My mother gave her word to him last night, it's unquestionable.
No matter how hard you try to suggest it, Chunchu shall no longer marry Boryang,
so do not squander your time with such fruitless aspirations. Understood?
Why are you not retorting?
Yes, of course.
I shall no longer even mention the matter.
I will merely follow Her Highness's wishes.
Of course you shall.
Let us go.
No matter how young and heedless you might be,
this is inadmissible.
I do not know what Deokman might be thinking about this,
but should your mother learn of this,
she would weep tears of regret in the netherworld.
No matter who it might be, I shall never proclaim...
a pawn of Mishil as my successor,
and shall make sure he will never gain the throne.
Bear it in mind, Chunchu.
Father.
I am sure that Seolwon is scheming something.
Seolwon is not as imprudent as you think.
She ordered not to allow anyone in,
but did he not leave there by himself?
Who knows what that garrulous tongue of his might have uttered?!
We must be prepared to cope with any repercussions!
Hojae, Piltan, Wangyun...
You are taking good care of them, I trust?
Of course.
I have full control over them.
Then, summon them.
Let us see how strong that control of yours is.
Yes.
Lord Chunchu.
Will you spare a moment and talk with me?
Lord Chunchu.
Yes, go ahead, Uncle.
Why did you do so?
Why did you join the council meeting in Mishil's company?
Is there any reason I cannot?
Are you telling me you are not aware...
of how your mother perished?
It is true that Mishil is using you.
His Majesty said he shall never allow a pawn of Mishil...
to become his successor.
Is it not natural that he would say so?
Then... What would you say on the matter?
What?
You never know what future the heavens might bestow upon us,
but I still am blessed with youth.
Hence,
would I not...
live much longer than Mishil?
Then...
Should you accord me your support,
should you help me become successor,
I shall bring back dignity to our royal family.
What will you do?
Will you join my cause?
Hajong Hyungnim told you that?
He did.
He must be agitated by this all.
And how could it stop with him?
Lord Sejong will feel the same.
But, since Her Highness refused to meet anyone...
Should she not convey confidence to Lord Sejong, at times like these?!
Of course.
Any tension Lord Sejong feels would not aid our cause in any way.
Something must be up...
I...
Your Highness.
Ohh... It's you.
Does it still concern you?
Wondering whether you should compete with Lord Chunchu or not,
is that what is concerning you?
There must be no conflict between Chunchu and me.
My stance still has not changed.
And I also saw through Mishil's subterfuge of trying to create conflict.
Creating dissension amongst royals must have been part of her schemes.
Lord Yongchun is already swaying...
But one thing...
Why would Mishil keep quiet at such a crucial moment?
That is what is making me nervous.
If what Yushin Rang said about the second possibility is true...
What?
What is that?
As for the second, it is so unthinkable...
I feel it hard to believe it myself,
and I still think it could never happen, but...
What is it?
No way.
There is no way.
Mishil would never...
ever do that.
Mishil...
Mishil...
Mishil.
Lord Chunchu is here.
Lord Chunchu?!
I bid you welcome.
I came to meet Lady Boryang.
Boryang is indisposed, so she left to get treatment.
What is the matter?
Is it serious?
It is nothing you should worry about.
But, considering how feeble she is, maladies easily afflict her.
Is that so?
When she returns,
tell her I came, and I am deeply concerned about her.
Yes, I will.
Piltan Rang, you're here as well?
*Past Pungwolju
Yes, but what brings you here, Sangseon*.
His Excellency summoned us in haste, so I came.
Were you summoned as well?
Yes, I was.
Let us go in, for starters.
- Hojae, Wangyun and Piltan Rang?! - Yes.
I saw them enter Lord Sejong's abode with these very eyes.
But, what is the matter?
Why did you order us to observe Lord Sejong's abode?
Should I meet with Piltan and Wangyun in the eventide?
No...
Summon Bakeui, Deokchung and Seonyeol Rang immediately.
I have something to tell them.
We will.
What? Lord Chunchu?!
This is not because Chunchu and I are relatives.
More than a woman on the throne,
would not a royal of true bone and son of Princess Cheonmyeong...
be much easier to accept for our people?
But, if you decide to do so even after Her Highness clamored for that post,
what would happen?
Her Highness said so herself.
That she will not enter any conflict with Lord Chunchu.
And it is a wise decision.
Should the two enter a bitter rivalry to become successor,
it would only benefit Lady Mishil in the end.
Now that you know, do not let the other Hwarang sway you,
and await my orders.
Is that clear?
Yes.
Her Highness said she does not wish to meet anyone.
If Her Highness wants me to leave, so I shall.
So just tell her that Bidam seeks audience.
She is already sleeping.
I cannot relay that to her, at the moment.
Then, I shall await here.
You bless me with your presence after such majestic announcement?!
It has a distinct flavour.
Where does it come from?
*Produced in lumps
Yes... It is Guxing tea* from the Middle Kingdom.
People say Lady Mishil is trying to force a conflict out of you and Her Highness.
Well... I am sure you know how to cope with this by yourself,
but I worry whether she might be exploiting you...
Even you think so... It is a relief.
What?
Did Bidam come by?
Yes... Saying Her Highness will not enter in conflict with you,
he was deeply concerned.
Is that so?
Do you have any ulterior motives?
You will have to do something for me.
What?
And what...
I summoned you as there is something I must tell you.
You might be all close to Bojong, but this has nothing to do with it.
Will you help me?
From the very moment we came to the capital,
we pledged allegiance to Your Excellency.
Whatever you ask from us, we shall gleefully accede.
Certainly.
Were it not for Your Excellency,
how could people of meager repute such as ourselves...
be accepted into Seorabeol's prestigious ten Hwarang guilds?
I concur with them myself.
Your wish is our command. We shall follow your every order.
Any order you issue shall be duly followed, so go ahead and tell us.
I hear you were promoted to Vice Chancellor of the Board of Taxation.
Any merit all belongs to Your Excellencies.
Ehh... Don't say that.
Your talents and repute are behind this, do not flatter us with modesty.
- Here. - Yes.
How is your father faring?
He is most grateful to you for all the help you accorded him during the recent crops crisis.
When it comes to clans as close as ours, it is only natural.
Indeed it is!
Should anything befall us,
would you and your father not do anything to help us?
Of course we would.
We can only offer our gratitude for your incessant support.
I should go hunting with your father,
*Old Shilla province occupying Northwest section of North Gyeongsang Prov.
but ever since they stationed him in Sangju*, we have not found the time.
Yes...
My father himself says he's been neglecting you.
Well...
Not only is Sangju the closest military post to Seorabeol,
but he has over three thousand elite troops under his command,
so it could only be natural.
I have learned that their forces now number in the five thousand.
Really?
With all those men under his command,
he will have a lot on his plate.
Tell me about it.
Have a drink yourselves.
Will you convey this message to your father?
Here... let us have a drink.
Hojae, Wangyun and Piltan are gathered at Lord Sejong's abode.
While Bojong, Seokpum, Bakeui, Deokchung and Seonyeol Rang...
are at Lord Seolwon's residence.
So the two gathered all those Hwarang separately?
Lord Sejong will be the most anxious of the two, by now.
Should Lord Chunchu join Boryang in conjugal ties,
how could Lord Sejong take it lying down?
Still, would there possibly be dissension between them?
They gathered Hwarang with close ties to their clan,
so would they not be preparing for any upcoming conflict?
The situation is developing in peculiar ways.
Mishil...
What?
I thought this was merely a subterfuge by Mishil to divide us.
Yes... Lord Yongchun has already engaged in parley with Lord Chunchu,
and they might have already come to a conclusion.
But, is the real conflict not between Lord Seolwon and Lord Sejong?
Then, it cannot be...
And, in this situation, Mishil quietly remains out of the picture.
Mishil must have considered all possibilities before...
she championed Lord Chunchu's candidacy, however...
she is now refraining from any action, and is keeping quiet.
Did Mishil abandon Lord Sejong?
There is no way she would.
As Sangdaedeung, he has control over the Council of Nobles,
and should the need arise,
he would have full rights in administering state affairs.
Yes, not to mention the fact he could inherit the throne,
should the royal family fail to bring forth a successor.
Mishil would not abandon someone like him so easily.
Also, if she had any intention to abandon him,
she would have never acted with such negligence.
She would have even considered murder.
Hence, there is no such possibility.
Then...
Then,
is the second possibility you mentioned really what...
It cannot be.
She could never...
Are you out there?
Yes.
What time is it?
The hour of the hare (5~7am).
The morningtide shall soon be upon us.
Right.
Give me some water.
Yes.
But, seeking audience with Your Highness,
Bidam Rang has been awaiting outside.
Bidam?!
Should I tell him to leave?
Let him in.
Yes.
Say what?!
Boryang... Boryang was abducted?!
Suddenly, sinister figures...
What were the guards doing?
It all happened so fast,
they took Milady away in a heartbeat...
What is she saying?
What happened to Boryang?!
I have only heard it now myself.
Sejong... Would this not be Lord Sejong's doing?
You may leave us.
Should Lord Chunchu and Boryang marry,
Lord Sejong's position would be greatly affected,
so would he not try to rid himself of all his quandaries at the source?!
There is no way.
Lord Sejong would never do something so heedless.
Yes... Lord Sejong would not.
But, have you forgotten Lord Hajong?
He is more than capable of such feats.
Milord...
Milord!
It must have terribly frightened you.
It scared me to death.
What on earth happened?
You needn't worry anymore.
Don't you worry.
It is all over now.
Milord...
It's all right...
Don't worry.
I escorted him in.
Seems like I made you wait. What brings you here?
This subterfuge of yours shall not so easily succeed.
Princess Deokman shall not contend with Lord Chunchu in any way.
And should worst come to worst,
she will eventually give up.
She clamored for the throne firsthand.
Her resourcefulness and acumen are second to none.
Also,
Lord Chunchu shall not so easily follow your wishes, either.
So... what brought you here?
You cannot continue remaining here in leisure as all this goes on.
Why do you keep remaining here all day?
Did she ask you to find out?
For she could not understand my behavior at such a crucial juncture,
did she ask you to find out?
Ahh... Right. That would not be possible.
Your own volition must have led you here.
Tell me... Is that so?
Why do you keep spending the day here in leisure?
It's just...
fatigue.
What?
Will you come with me somewhere?
What is the matter?
What is with those gazes?
You will pardon me the insolence,
but I must ask you something.
Where is Boryang?
What?
Where is Boryang?!
And why would you ask me about your daughter?
Give me Boryang back!
By any chance,
did you not happen to see Boryang?
What on earth are you talking about?
Why are you looking for Boryang here?
Stop acting like that.
I could understand if you were market scoundrels...
What?
Market scoundrels?! How dare you...
Repeat what you said.
Give me Boryang back!
Why are you asking that from me?
I shall ask for the last time, give me Boryang back!
Why would I know where Boryang is?
Didn't you do it?!
I did not.
What are you saying?
Lord Sejong and Lord Seolwon are arguing?
From what I've heard, Boryang has disappeared.
Boryang has disappeared?!
If Lord Sejong did indeed abduct Boryang...
To cope with Lord Chunchu's candidacy as successor,
he might be trying to stop his marriage with Boryang.
- There is no way. - That's not possible.
Boryang...
It cannot be...
He could never do that to her...
You're right.
It's Lord Chunchu.
What are you talking about?
Lord Chunchu?!
Say what?
A conflict between Lord Seolwon and Lord Sejong?!
Yes, as Lady Boryang seemingly disappeared,
they started arguing.
Boryang disappeared?!
What on earth is going on?
This won't do it.
I will have to meet my sister.
If asleep, I will wake her up; if stopped, I shall continue on.
- Let us go. - Her Highness...
departed for an excursion.
What?
Excursion?!
How could you leave the capital without a carriage?
Is it not enjoyable?
Leaving all those formalities behind.
How nice it is.
But, protecting you is all the more arduous.
I have you and Bidam by my side.
Should even an entire army assault me,
would they not still face a fierce battle?
I did join you, but where are you headed?
I'm fatigued.
Hold my hand.
Will you help me out?
What?
We must find Chunchu.
*Banwolseong: "Crescent Moon Palace" (used only from Joseon onwards)
Alcheon, Wolya and Seolji will control His Majesty's quarters*,
Jukbang and Godo the market,
while Goksaheun, Daepung and Yanggil will check Lord Seolwon's abode.
We must hasten.
Did anything happen to Lord Chunchu?
- Why... - For starters,
just find him.
You must...
You must find him.
Lord Chunchu, what brings you here?
I seek audience with His Majesty.
Yes, I shall pave the way.
What?
Chunchu?
Is that true?
Yes, they just entered the council hall together.
Yes, seeking audience with His Majesty.
What did you just say?
Last night, I joined Lady Boryang in conjugal ties,
and we spent our bridal night together.
You...
You married her?!
Boryang?
Seolwon, you knave...
Seo... Seol...
Hence, may you arrange quarters for Lady Boryang.
You're right.
It is Lord Chunchu.
What are you talking about?
Lord Chunchu?!
Should Chunchu have done this all to create dissension...
and build his own sphere of influence...
A new political force... Chunchu, Lord Seolwon and Lord Yongchun's union?
Do you even realize what just happened?
And...
do you realize what...
is about to happen?
And if...
I was the one using Mishil?!
Sister.
Chunchu is not feeble at all.
I feel it hard to believe it myself,
and I still think it could never happen, but...
What is it?
Go ahead and tell me.
The second... The second possibility...
is that Mishil might have been used by Lord Chunchu.
Chunchu is not just a child.
How could she so disdainfully exploit...
someone so young and unversed in politics?
No.
Chunchu's politics have started already.

~ On the Next Episode of ~ QUEEN ~*~ SEONDEOK
Something terrible might happen.
Tensions are about to explode.
They captured my father?!
Internal strife is what you mean?
It was all Chunchu's subterfuge.
Mishil was used by me.
Something changed Mishil.
Her Highness must solve this.
I found where Lady Mishil is.
Why are you on Deokman's side?
Because I'm the one.
So, is it because of devotion?!
I trusted Mishil.
I would happily trample on that kind of man.
Did you come to surrender?
Your surbterfuges have failed.
Because of you and me, Mishil was awakened.
How about you rid yourself of those unfeasible dreams?
That cannot happen.
And why is that?
Because I'm the one.
The dormant dragon has awakened.
And that is me...
Mishil.
Mishil.
