Your Majesty!

I dare to ask.

Gaya's people...

Gaya's people?!

Where are these "Gaya people" you speak of?

They are all Shilla's people,

and they are all...

my people!

Your Majesty!

Bidam!

~ Episode 53 ~

Come here.

I was ordered to escort him to the Commissioner's office.

Directly to his office?

Indeed.

Escort him.

Let us go, Your Excellency. I will escort you.

How will you proceed?

You must find refuge.

If I run away now, I will only confirm the movement's existence.

However, wouldn't it be dangerous to stay?

Just in case, arrange for my escape.

Yes.

What will you do?

I shall escape.

Yes, I will arrange for it.

How did it go?

We found out the movement was planning further action,

and that their leader is Wolya.

We are eradicating all movement members from the various offices.

Your Majesty.

Allow me a suggestion.

If Wolya is the restoration movement's leader,

it would be wise to investigate Chief Marshal Yushin's connection with him.

May you accede to our investigation regarding the Chief Marshal.

They apprehended even His Excellency?

Yes.

He said he will escape.

I will escort him right now.

Take care of yourself.

Where are you bringing him?

I was ordered to escort him to the Commissioner's office.

Wait!

Where are you escorting him?

I was ordered by the Commissioner to bring him to his office.

His office?!

Were you ordered by the Commissioner himself?

Yes, he said to escort him immediately.

Is that so? Right now?

All right.

Go ahead.

The Commissioner is with Her Majesty as we speak.

Are you a movement member as well?

Boys!

Boys!!

Trail them!

Who is there?

Free the way.

I said get out of my way!

Out!

Trail him!

Here he comes.

Your Excellency!

Quick!

Come on!

Trail them!

Close the gates! Stop them! Trail them!

Your Majesty.

I humbly request your consent.

Commissioner.

What is the matter?

Wolya and Seolji...

escaped our prisons.

They escaped?!

You're telling me they escaped from the inspectorate prisons?

There were movement members amongst inspectorate officers as well.

I hereby...

give you my consent to investigate...

the Chief Marshal.

We deployed observers to the Commissioner's and Chief Marshal's abodes.

We also strengthened our watch on any of Yushin's followers ranked above private.

In the vicinity of Seorabeol, there must be one of their military strongholds.

We will find any of their members working for the various officers,

and force them to confess its location.

Your Excellency.

What is dominating your thoughts?

Ahh... Never you mind.

Do as you suggested.

- And Yushin? - Yes...

I brought him to our questioning room.

How could their members even infiltrate the inspectorate?

How could such nefarious occurrence befall the palace?

If they so easily found refuge, it can only suggest that...

the entire palace is filled with movement spies.

Is Lord Yushin really fomenting ulterior motives?

There is no way!

Are we not all well aware of Lord Yushin's fealty?

But, when it comes down to it, Lord Yushin is of Gaya ancestry.

How can we be sure that he is not scheming something?

I do not believe that is the real issue.

No matter what Lord Yushin's intentions are,

what really counts is where the gold will weigh in the balance of power.

What are you trying to say?

The balance of power?

Lord Yushin and Lord Bidam,

are they not Her Majesty's right and left-arm men?

But we're facing the left arm hitting the right.

Is Lord Bidam scheming something, then?

I certainly do not know that.

The restoration movement finally ended up causing Lord Yushin discomfiture.

Were they really active all this time?

Wasn't Wolya's escape enough to prove that?

You cannot jump to conclusions that way.

Lord Yushin might have nothing to do with this.

Is he not of Gaya ancestry anyway?

It will not be easy to prove his innocence.

No matter how close Lord Bidam and Lord Yushin are,

considering how meticulous the Commissioner is...

I have a feeling this will not end so simply.

How is the mood at the Board?

The Chief Marshal was apprehended, how could it be?

As if our relationship with the inspectorate wasn't tense to begin with.

What? They escaped?!

Spies were amongst inspectorate officers, and they helped them escape.

Then, were Wolya and Seolji really in charge of the movement?

It will be hard for Yushin to avoid being held responsible.

Yes, His Excellency is already being investigated by the inspectorate.

Not even once have I ever fomented ulterior motives against Her Majesty.

And you know that just as well as I do.

Ulterior motives...

Ulterior...

Whether you fomented ulterior motives or not is besides the point.

What are you trying to say?

It is not your wishes, but the land you possess,

the power figures granting your status, and their wishes.

That is what matters.

Power figures?!

Power figures?!

"Chief Marshal Yushin,"

that has long stopped being just an individual's name.

Yes, he represents a strong sphere of influence.

Trusting an individual and his sphere of influence are two different issues.

For Yushin to continue representing Gaya descendants...

will not only be to Yushin's detriment, but also those Gaya people.

But those same Gaya people are Yushin's very foundation.

Yushin will never be able to abandon them.

Never.

What?

Sweep away the movement?

With my own hands?

If you accept, I will confer with Her Majesty.

Bidam.

You are of Gaya ancestry, and one of your subordinates...

was revealed to be in charge of the restoration movement.

Not to mention the fact he managed to escape the palace.

It is without any doubt a treacherous act.

If you sweep away the entire movement and bring me Wolya's pate...

Will killing Wolya be enough to subjugate the movement?

Another leader will come forward.

Also, all the efforts Her Majesty went through to integrate Gaya descendants...

will go in vain.

And it's not merely because you fear losing your own foundation?

Bidam!

Don't you know that both Her Majesty and I have no intention of abandoning you?

You must abandon them.

Abandon Gaya, all your followers,

and start anew, Yushin.

The issue is always the balance of power.

Balance?!

All this time, both Commissioner Bidam and Chief Marshal Yushin...

have managed to limit each other's influence, regardless of their intents.

Just as you wished.

But?!

Behind Bidam are Mishil's old followers and the new associates...

he gained after the inspectorate's establishment.

And we also cannot forget many lesser nobles' ties with Bidam.

Yushin's downfall...

and the disruption of this balance...

would only mean more and more lesser nobles would side with Bidam.

Just like the conflict between Yushin's intentions and those of his followers,

the same could eventually happen for Bidam.

So should I just accept the movement's existence?

I do not have an answer for that.

Can't you distinguish between right and wrong?

Or are you just concerned about the aftermath of any decision?

The more knowledge I muster,

the more ambiguous shadows right and wrong assume.

And that is because depending upon circumstances and points of view,

such judgment can only change.

But focusing on the state of things is much different.

Such judgment can never fail you.

What is it you want to suggest?

You can neither act against Yushin nor against his followers.

What happened with Yushin?

Yushin knows nothing.

Wolya seemed to be leading the movement unbeknownst to him.

Then, this is serious.

It will be hard to find him now.

When I was still dealing with espionage,

finding the movement was always the most arduous of tasks.

If they start hiding underground, we will never capture them.

Capture?!

And who ever mentioned that?

The movement...

Shoot.

Shoot.

It is a list of all the remaining members.

So these are all the members remaining in the palace?

Once they begin to ferret out our members, the numbers will decrease.

Even if nine members out of ten are removed, I don't care.

We only need what's remaining to survive.

Yes.

But this is putting Lord Yushin in a direful situation.

Considering how we escaped, it is like acknowledging his involvement.

Lord Yushin might have been apprehended by the inspectorate already.

Of course he knows nothing which would bring us harm.

But with Lord Yushin in such direful position...

That is exactly why...

we escaped.

What?

Commissioner.

What are you talking about?

You're not capturing them, the movement?

We might do so,

or maybe not.

What are you thinking?

Why do you think Wolya escaped?

Must be because he was the movement's leader, what else?!

Then, that would instantly put Yushin in a difficult situation.

Just to gain his own survival, it's understandable.

Wolya secretly fostered Yushin and the movement at the same time.

Merely for the sake of Gaya.

As we suspected, his ultimate goal was a ruler of Gaya descent.

Then... who could it be?

It can't be...

Yushin?!

Of course he must have refused it.

That I can believe. He did so.

I am sure he did.

But if Wolya continued to stress that,

conflict between the two would inevitably arise.

Yushin would continue ignoring him, just as Gaya people continue to pressure Wolya.

But... despite knowing Yushin would fall into a direful situation,

they still escaped?

What could the reason be?

Doesn't the question give you the answer right away?

What?

You escaped on purpose to force this situation upon Lord Yushin?!

Just out of fealty for Her Majesty, Yushin kept refusing his future on the throne.

But the movement has been exposed, and we escaped.

For his Gaya ancestry, they are fomenting suspicion against him,

and he will eventually be questioned.

Then...

Was it to change Lord Yushin's heart...

Yushin is not the kind of man who would change so easily.

However, should the situation make that change a necessity,

if his only choice continues that of becoming King himself...

Then...

For that situation, you mean...

Indeed.

The situation must further deteriorate.

Say what?

Worsen the situation?!

The only way for Wolya to fulfill his goals...

is to force Yushin into a corner in this manner.

Then, Wolya's next move...

We must now help Yushin escape.

If he escapes while he's being investigated by the inspectorate,

he will instantly be accused of treason.

And would Lord Yushin's disposition allow that?

Even if we manage to help him escape, would he just silently allow it?

He would try to slay me.

However, what really matters...

is that, if he successfully manages to escape,

Yushin will never be able to come back.

Exactly.

Wolya's next move will be trying to help Yushin escape.

If Yushin escapes with the help of the restoration movement,

then he would unquestionably be responsible for treason!

And wouldn't that be a way for Wolya to gain Yushin?

Yes!

It is certainly a possibility.

But what is truly interesting...

is that what Wolya wishes for...

might just be the same as what I want.

I will give you all the troops you need.

Bring me Wolya's head.

If I do so, all your efforts to integrate Gaya people will be rendered fruitless.

Think of how much effort you dedicated to Gaya descendants.

But must you turn your back on them,

and make all those achievements vanish?

If I don't, I will lose you.

Don't you see how the same situation is repeating itself?

Yes.

Back then, it was having to abandon Gaya to fight Mishil.

It is only because you overcame such challenge that I am here.

No matter what, you must embrace Gaya people as your own.

And I will.

However, this country's ruler shall never embrace the restoration movement.

Even if you behead Wolya, a successor will instantly take his place.

And their vengeful vim would only exacerbate,

while Gaya people will rally behind the movement.

They suffered eighty years of mistreatment.

They need more time to accept you as their ruler.

It is not something that power can solve.

All you can do is embrace them.

Is Gaya all you're concerned about?

Doesn't your own safety concern you in the slightest?

Also...

How about me?

As your humble servant...

failed to fulfill his duties and control his subordinates,

I will gleefully accept any responsibility.

Demotion, confiscation, depriving me of my post...

I will accept any punishment you deem necessary.

You may abandon me,

but you must embrace Gaya at all cost, Your Majesty!

The Commissioner seeks audience.

Did you meet Yushin?

Because of the movement, the palace is in tumult.

Someone must be held responsible for all this.

Your Majesty.

Yushin...

is innocent.

He has no relation with the movement.

Yes, I believe so myself.

The movement was led by Wolya alone.

However, not all courtiers will believe as such.

It is most regrettable for me as well,

and I do know how hard all this is on you...

You know it so well,

so how could Yushin not be aware of it?

Is Yushin truly incognizant of how hard this is for me?

How disheartening.

What disheartenment Yushin is bringing me.

Moving Lord Yushin out of the palace?!

Once they learn of the transfer, they'll use it to help him escape.

Aren't movement spies still amongst inspectorate officers?

That is exactly what we will exploit.

After announcing the transfer,

we will entrust it exactly to movement spies.

The movement will naturally emerge,

and we will be there to apprehend them when it happens.

What a stratagem!

I knew your strategy was peerless!

An anti-espionage ruse?!

Anti what?

Seems like you're in the mood for scheming again?

Uh?!

It's Lord Seolwon, all right!

Just as remarkable as you've always been!

Lord Hajong.

Why are you drinking again?

Since the bottle can't drink me,

I am forced to drink it myself.

Hyungnim.

Show some composure,

the Commissioner will be here soon.

The Commissioner?!

The one enjoying such formidable influence, you mean?

You knave, go look outside!

Afraid they might be accused of being a movement spy,

the moment they see any of their officers, the shivering starts!

Also...

Since their influence has grown even more because of the movement,

shouldn't they reward them instead?

Uh? Isn't that right?

Lord Hajong!

Give it a rest.

Your Excellency.

Here you are.

I was just devising a plan to reward the restoration movement.

Ever since this movement ordeal began,

*Power-seeking Hindu demons **Buddhist demons

we quickly became as feared as asura* or rakshasa**!

Those fools...

Hyungnim!

That is enough.

There is no need.

I actually think it is a clever proposal.

Lord Hajong and I seem to think the same.

I plan to reward the restoration movement.

Who did you say were the movement spies in our ranks?

Gisun, Pyeonguk, Jeongman, three men in total.

But we did not apprehend them as of yet.

Order those three to transfer Yushin.

What?

Are you trying to inveigle the movement?

I am not.

Did I not tell you?

That I will instead reward them.

Then, that reward...

is Yushin?

The movement's existence is still beneficial to us.

And Yushin would cross a bridge of no return.

They're transferring Yushin?!

- Outside the palace? - Yes.

As we speak, inspectorate officers are escorting Lord Yushin out.

All of a sudden, why...

Have you forgotten Lord Wolya's escape?

Not knowing the full extent of the movement's infiltration,

they can't even trust the inspectorate.

So they are moving him to a more secret location,

I've heard.

How many of them?

What?

How many what?

How many troops are escorting him?

Yes... About... ten men?

If you were the movement, wouldn't you try to rescue Yushin...

right as he's being transferred?

Yes... I suppose I would.

But, ten troops?!

Ahh... Then...

They are trying to inveigle the movement on purpose, and...

Might be the case.

However,

if that wasn't their intent...

If it wasn't...

What are you doing?

We came to your rescue, Your Excellency.

What do you think you're doing?

There is no time, let us hasten!

Wolya... Where is Wolya?

We must leave! Ask us later!

Now! Let us leave now!

You, there!

Yes, Lord Chunchu.

We were summoned urgently, so...

What is the matter?

Ahh... I... must apologize.

I am not allowed to disclose inspectorate matters.

By any chance...

Did Yushin escape?

How did you know?

Ai...Aigoo...

I am not supposed to mention that.

Commissioner.

It went just as planned.

Well done.

By now, Her Majesty should be cognizant of the matter.

How could that happen?

Yes, I...

As they were transferring Lord Yushin,

on the way, they just...

But it seems like the inspectorate officers in charge of transferring him...

were movement spies.

Three of them were members,

so it was only natural something like this would happen.

How many members could they possibly have,

to find three of their people amongst those entrusted with the transfer?

How could something like this happen?

Yes, I myself was...

Bidam...

What?

Bidam.

Where is Bidam?

She will have to proclaim Chief Marshal Yushin as an enemy of the state.

Yes. There is no witness who can confirm their involvement,

but since movement members came to his rescue killing those guards,

now it is evident.

It is a point of no return.

There is nothing he can do to rectify this situation.

Yes...

What better evidence than that?

Anyhow, a masterful stratagem indeed.

Remarkable.

Did you arrange for that?

Yes.

Uncle Misaeng will organize a meeting in the eventide.

~ Yeomjong's residence ~

Commissioner Bidam graces us with his presence.

May you all rise.

Seeing you all answer my summoning whelms me with gratitude.

The movement's activity has brought a serious crisis to our nation.

Not to mention the fact that one of our illustrious heroes,

Yushin, has been found to be involved with their dealings.

How could this occurrence not be considered utterly deplorable?

Chief Marshal Yushin and his subordinates Wolya and Seolji,

and the shocking revelation the Board of Military Affairs was their stronghold.

As Commissioner of the Royal Inspectorate, I feel gravely responsible for this all.

Wouldn't it be particularly in times of need such as these...

that our nation should request your most strenuous efforts?

Hence, I shall take this opportunity to reshuffle and better organize...

every single board in the palace.

Lord Jujin, I must entrust you the Board of Military Affairs.

Would you accept the position of new Commissioner?

I shall strongly suggest it to Her Majesty.

Your commendation whelms me with gratitude.

In the morrow, a court meeting shall take place.

You must all stress to Her Majesty how critical this situation is.

If you do so,

I shall never forget your devotion to our country's cause.

He is a treacherous villain!

Chief Marshal Yushin used the Board to foster private guards...

to be used by the movement, did he not?

Not to mention the fact he defied our codes by murdering...

officers of the inspectorate, and escaped.

This is an unquestionable act of treason.

Remarkable achievements might adorn his legacy,

but they cannot take precedence over this matter.

Your Majesty.

May you proclaim Chief Marshal Yushin as an enemy of the state.

Also, we cannot possibly entrust the Board to his father, Lord Seohyeon.

Depriving him of his position would be wise, Your Majesty.

Yes, I also strongly suggest the removal of any Gaya descendant...

from any influential post.

They are traitors.

- May you proclaim him as enemy of the state. - I concur.

Your Majesty, we request your consent.

May you accede to it, Your Majesty.

We strongly suggest you dismiss them from office.

- Your Majesty, give us your consent. - Your Majesty.

Wolya.

How could you do this to me?

I apologize for deceiving you.

Apologize?!

Apologize?

Your Excellency...

You two come from the same mold!

I always treated you with the utmost sincerity and kindness.

Confederacy?!

Is this what you call a confederacy?

Where would you find such a mendacious union like this?

We are dealing with over six hundred thousand lives!

Yushin...

You have a son yourself, so you must know how it feels.

A single life has that much weight,

but Gaya people are no less than 600,000.

And?

All those people represent the weight on our shoulders.

And the suffering those 600,000 people have endured...

lasted for eighty years.

I had to be prepared for anything.

Are you ignoring all the benevolence Her Majesty has shown for Gaya?

Was Her Majesty ever negligent towards Gaya?

Will Her Majesty's reign last forever?

And can you guarantee she will never have a change of heart?

If it was only up to me, I would happily trust her.

But if whom I alone believe in turns her back on us,

the lives of six hundred thousand people will be at risk.

I never fomented ulterior motives against Her Majesty.

I merely prepared to cope with anything.

And what will you do now?

Gaya's problems have only one answer.

And that is someone of Gaya descent on the throne.

And that... would be me?

You must be the one.

How many times did I tell you I have no intention to do so?

And that will never change!

Your heart might not change,

but situations do!

What are you trying to say?

Lord Yushin, you have crossed the bridge of no return.

Your subordinates were exposed as movement spies,

you escaped with their help,

and you already are a traitor,

an enemy of the state.

Make up your mind.

All our troops are ready.

Yes, Lord Yushin!

You enjoy unrivaled popularity both in the Board and all other offices.

If you come forward...

Do not even think about it!

Then, what are you going to do?

Together, let us return.

Disband the movement for real,

accept any due punishment,

and let us start anew as Shilla people!

How could you say something so irresponsible?

Think it would be even possible?

There is no way Yushin could have fostered the movement.

I am aware of that more than anybody.

And Her Majesty certainly knows that as well.

However...

The movement even helped Yushin escape,

so they already are traitors.

Yushin can no longer go back.

Then, are you saying that he can only join forces with the movement?

Is this what fate bestowed upon Gaya?

So much effort was spent over decades.

Your Excellency.

How could this happen?

Be it Gaya or the movement,

His Excellency has sacrificed his life for the sake of our nation!

But how could this...

Lord Yushin cannot be involved with the movement, can he?

What are you saying?

Are you suspecting the Chief Marshal?

I am just concerned about him!

If only to prove his innocence, Lord Yushin must return now.

Even if he does return, it will mean the end for him.

Is he not an enemy of the state now?

Still, are we supposed to let all this happen...

without moving a finger?

Ehh!

Just a moment!

Where are we headed,

Your Excellency?

To the privy, why?

Why, care to join me?

Fine! Let us go together and do it in a group! Uh?!

Your Majesty.

I believe all the courtiers and most officials concur on this matter.

I myself think it is most regrettable,

but this is a matter of national security.

Hence, I should proclaim Yushin as an enemy of the state?!

On the day before your enthronement,

you talked with me about what makes a great ruler.

Do you recall?

A great... ruler?

That is what I believe.

Being severe upon one's closest confidants,

and generous and kind with one's people...

is what makes a great ruler.

Then, only reserving kindness for their followers...

and showing cruelty to their people...

is what makes a despot, I suppose?!

Seems like it.

If you only and always show generosity to everyone,

that will soil your rule in incompetence.

I understand, Your Highness.

Ahh... No...

Now it will have to be "Your Majesty."

Yes, since Your Majesty will be strict and severe with me,

you wanted me to be prepared for it, right?

Indeed.

You must be prepared to cope with it.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Your humble servant, Bidam, shall serve you with utmost zeal.

You told me that only enough severity towards your confidants to suggest cruelty...

marks the path of a great ruler, Your Majesty.

All creation knows Yushin is your closest confidant,

so if you fail to deal with him in most stern and resolute ways,

how would the courtiers and our people possibly accept it?

What you say is right.

Not a single word you said goes against principle.

Your grace is immeasurable, Your Majesty.

However...

It does not go against your personal interests, either.

Not to mention the interest of certain nobles,

who would only fear the ever-increasing influence shown by Yushin.

What is your view on the matter?

Should one's personal whims not go against principle,

who would ever lament such situation?

Bidam is quite the peculiar specimen, indeed.

Yes...

While the drums of victory were heralding Yushin's flourishing influence,

what was Bidam doing?

Did he not always remain in people's shadows?

But see how he suddenly finds his path kindled by success!

Yes, he managed to turn the situation to his own benefit...

without going against principle a single time.

Blood never lies, all right.

Never does.

Your Majesty!

It cannot be!

An enemy of the state?!

Is not Your Majesty the first to know that the Chief Marshal...

has no relation with the movement whatsoever?

If he is responsible for anything, that is not controlling his subordinates.

That one single mistake turning him into an enemy of our nation...

is a much too cruel measure.

You may leave.

Your Majesty.

Think of all the meritorious service His Excellency is responsible for!

If you do this to the Chief Marshal, it will only negatively affect our troops' morale.

Your Majesty! Deign us with your benevolence!

Deign us with your benevolence!

Deign us with your benevolence!

Your Majesty!

Think of our troops' morale,

and do not abandon the Chief Marshal!

May you retract your measure directed at His Excellency.

Your Majesty!

Deign us with your benevolence!

Deign us with your benevolence!

Deign us with your benevolence!!

Deign us with your benevolence!

This really... really does not make any sense.

Don't you know what kind of man Lord Yushin is?

Lord Yushin a traitor, a treacherous villain, an enemy of the state?!

Aigoo...

Gather everyone who knows him, and try to ask them.

See if anyone concurs with such harebrained accusations, will you?

With the help of a movement attack, Lord Yushin escaped the palace.

Not to mention the fact that troops and officers were murdered.

Just that is enough to justify any suspicion against him.

Isn't that the very reason why all this is unfair?

All this has been forced upon him!

He is nothing but a national hero who spent the last few years on the battlefield,

a hero!

It is a brilliant subterfuge by Bidam.

He was caught in his trap.

Milord, tell this to Her Majesty and do something about Lord Yushin,

will you?

The movement is a treacherous organization,

and the fact Lord Yushin is involved is true.

All Bidam did was fulfilling his duties as Commissioner,

and my suggestion that Bidam did this on purpose is mere speculation.

This is much too unfair, it's unconscionable!

Lord Yushin knows nothing about political artifice,

his every moment is drenched in sincerity!

Both his demeanor with people, his dedication in training or fervor on the battlefield,

it was all done in utter sincerity.

Sincerity...

Yes! Sincerity! Sincerity.

Sincerity?!

Sincerity.

Your Majesty.

Lord Chunchu seeks audience.

It's you.

Yes.

So...

What are your views on this matter?

What matter?

All that has been happening as of late.

Shall I begin by separating right from wrong?

Or is the state of things what you want to hear?

Right and wrong.

It is a matter of national security and public order.

What the courtiers and Bidam suggest is reasonable.

Hence?

However,

there is no man responsible for as much meritorious service...

in the last few years as Yushin.

Hence, not only is he gaining popularity amongst our people,

but also courtiers and officials of all the boards.

Proclaiming such a distinguished man of arms as an enemy of the state...

would incur indescribable dissent and disorder.

Tell me the state of things, then.

The uneasy reaction shown by the courtiers...

is a result of Yushin's popularity.

They are not following Bidam,

but merely fearing Yushin's ever-increasing influence.

However, should anything happen to Yushin,

we would find ourselves with nobody to contend with Bidam's rise.

Now tell me any strategy.

I have none.

And why?

If Yushin does not make his return and joins forces with the movement,

then he would unquestionably become an enemy of the state.

And if he does return, he would be instantly apprehended for treason.

Hence... There is no way he will return.

*From Sanskrit vajradhatu (diamond realm), although the "gye" used here means "plan"

That is the extent of Bidam's brilliant diamond plan*.

Diamond plan?!

Diamond is the most indestructible of gems,

so that is how they call the most formidable of stratagems.

Is it really impossible to break?

With Yushin, we can always hope one thing from him,

but it is much too arduous a task.

Since Yushin himself will worry about his future.

What is that?

Yushin...

Is there really no solution?

Her Majesty graces you all.

His Majesty King Jijeung gave us the motto which defined our nation,

that of heralding new virtuous achievements and conquering the four corners.

King Jinheung inherited this great vision to pacify the Three Kingdoms,

and annexed Gaya,

making Shilla and Gaya one unified nation.

Hence, to embrace Gaya people as our own,

I eliminated discrimination,

and returned them their land.

However, those same Gaya descendants responded...

by fostering a restoration movement and resisting against Shilla,

so this is an unquestionable act of high treason!

For their involvement with the restoration movement,

I hereby proclaim Board officer Wolya,

Daedaegam Seolji,

and Chief Marshal Yushin...

as being responsible for...

an inimical act against our state...

Your Majesty!

Your Majesty!

Your Majesty!

At Ingang Palace...

At Ingang Palace...

Yushin has returned! Yushin!

Commissioner! Yushin has made his return!

Yushin...

Your Majesty!

Chief Marshal Yushin!

Accepts any punishment, but first wishes to speak!

He first wishes to speak!

Your Majesty!

- Your Majesty!! - Your Majesty!

Your Majesty!

Her Majesty deigns you with her presence!

Is it really impossible to break?

With Yushin, we can always hope for one thing from him,

but it is much too arduous a task.

Since Yushin himself will worry about his future.

What is that?

Sincerity.

Just, sincerity.

Sincerity?!

Wouldn't striving to follow the righteous path regardless of all the obstacles...

what sincerity is made of?

Lord Yushin knows nothing about political artifice,

his every moment is drenched in sincerity!

The kind that doesn't concern itself with political subterfuge,

and always strives to find justice, sincerity.

What no artifice can sway, sincerity.

Your Majesty.

Chief Marshal Yushin,

accepts his due punishment.

May you staunchly rebuke my misdeeds.

What are you waiting for?

Apprehend criminal Yushin at once!

Yes!

My gratitude...

Yushin.

~ On The Next Episode Of ~ QUEEN ~*~ SEONDEOK

Is the throne what you aspire for?

You cannot!

You don't seem familiar?

There...

What is Yushin doing in Baekje?

Which battalion do you come from?

Doyeol from the Royal Guard Ministry.

For participating in espionage,

I apprehended Chief Marshal Yushin at the Baekje camp.

Espionage?!

I hereby deprive Chief Marshal Yushin of his post,

and condemn him to exile.

Then, did I... Did I betray the Chief Marshal?

Why did you force me to make this decision?
