"Brought to you by WITH S2 Written In The Heavens Subbing Squad" "Episode 58" " Sir!" " What did you find, Lieutenant?" "The Ministry of War is the same." "He's given the command of all the armies to Lord Jang." "Sir, without the Royal Guard here," "The only soldiers here are from the Tribunal and the War Ministry." "But..." "But now they are all under Lord Jang's command." "That's right." "Even the armies of the Five Commands." "Now all I have to do is move the Queen." " Your Highness!" " What is it?" "You need to come outside." "Her Majesty is here." " The Queen?" " Yes, Your Highness." "What could she want at this hour?" "Consort Sook!" " I came to confirm something with you." " Your Majesty." " Carry out my orders." " Yes, My Lord." "What are you up to?" "Up to?" "Oh, you mean me taking over the command of the Tribunal?" "If that's what you're asking," "You should be asking the Tribunal Commissioner." "He was the one who requested it." "What did you say?" "Once the Royal Guard left the Palace and the Palace soldiers were halved," "The Commissioner must have felt that..." "A reshuffle of power was necessary, that's all." "No need to be so sensitive, now." "You seem to be over-reacting." "Stop fooling around, Third War Minister!" "Remember my words." "I can take your life at any time." "You better not be up to no good." "Is that so?" "Why don't you give it a try?" "If you take my life, you won't escape unscathed either." "And if that happens," "Who will guard Consort Sook and the young Prince?" "There is no one else here." "What brings you here at this late hour, Your Majesty?" "Why did you turn down the position of Queen?" "Pardon me?" "I know that if you had so wished, you would be Queen instead of me." "I want to know why you turned it down." " Your Majesty..." " What are you up to?" "What are your hidden motives?" "Why would you turn down the position of Queen only to go after the position of Crown Prince?" "And if you are after the Crown Prince," "Why did you handle Prince Yeon Ing's marriage in such a way?" "How did you earn the Crown Prince's trust?" "Tell me." "What kind of person are you?" "And what are these rumors?" "Why are you asking me this, Your Majesty?" "There is something about those rumors that you are already finding strange." "Isn't that why you came here at this hour?" "What?" "Her Majesty has gone to see Consort Sook?" "Yes, My Lord." "Then are you telling me that..." "You sacrificed yourself for the sake of the Crown Prince?" "No, Your Majesty." "I wouldn't use the word sacrifice." "In fact, it was out of selfishness that I did so." "It was because I selfishly wanted to protect both Princes." "I didn't want to lose either of them." "It was purely out of selfishness." "But I never expected to cause such great trouble within the Palace because of my decision." " Because of that, this huge event..." " What do you mean by that?" "What huge event?" "Your Majesty, I need to tell you something." "It is imperative that you know this." "Your Majesty, it is Lady Yi." "What is it?" "The Third War Minister, Lord Jang Mu-Ryeol wishes to see you." " The Third War Minister?" " Yes, Your Majesty." " Right now?" " Yes, he says it is urgent." "Your Majesty." "What brings you here at this late hour?" "I had to speak to you urgently." "Your Highness!" "What do you mean by that?" "You think Consort Sook is up to something?" "After His Majesty ordered her eviction," "Her supporters have been up to something." " Up to something?" " Yes." "Especially her brother, Tribunal Inspector Cha Chun Soo." "I think they're plotting something against the East Palace, Your Majesty." "The East Palace?" "You mean the Crown Prince?" "Yes, Your Majesty." "Do you have evidence to support your claim?" "No, we have nothing of substance yet." "But they are definitely up to something." "We must stop them!" "His Majesty is not in the Palace, which means security is not at its highest." "I fear that they will use this opportunity to cause trouble." "Is there a way to be more certain?" "Yes, that is why I've come to you." "There is something you can help with." " Me?" " Yes, Your Majesty." "The Third War Minister has taken over the command of all the Palace guards?" "Yes, Your Highness." "I fear they are up to something." "After His Majesty left the Palace," "The Bureau of State Records was broken into." " The Bureau of State Records?" " Yes." "His Majesty had ordered the compilation of King Taejo and King Taejo's records for his abdication." "That means they may now know His Majesty's plan." "Yes, if they know that he plans to abdicate, ...crown the Crown Prince and name Prince Yeon Ing as Heir Successor," "They won't let it happen so easily." "And now he's taken command over all the Palace soldiers." "He may be plotting against you and the Prince." "Please ask the Noron factions for help and see what their reactions are." "I'll inform Chief Suh of the situation and find out how many soldiers we have." "All right." "Lady Bong?" "Are you there?" " Yes, Your Highness." " Bring Prince Yeon Ing here." "Hurry!" "Yes, Your Highness!" "Set out right away for Chief Suh and deliver this to him." "Yes, Inspector!" "What happened?" "They've done exactly what you expected." "Half a day for the message to reach Chief Suh," "And another half a day for the Royal Guard to return." "We have exactly one day to accomplish our task." "Everything depends on this one day." "We must accomplish everything within that time." " Do you understand?" " Yes, My Lord!" "Your Highness, I will be testing you tomorrow on what you learned today." "Please study hard." "Yes, Master." "Have a safe journey home." "Your Highness!" "Your Highness, let's go to your mother." "What is it, Ae-Jong?" "Why are we going to my mother's palace at this late hour?" "Well..." "I think Her Highness wants to put you to bed tonight." " Really?" "She does?" " Yes, aren't you happy?" " As ordered, be on your best guard." " Yes, My Lady." "My Lady!" "The Royal Guard may be away," "But there are other guards in the Palace." "Why are we standing guard?" "I agree." "Is something wrong, My Lady?" "Nothing's wrong." "Just follow your orders." " My Lady!" " How did everything go?" "We sent the Lady Investigators to Consort Sook's palace as ordered." "It was true that the Ministry of War had taken command over all the soldiers in the Palace." "What's going on, My Lady?" "One, two, three, four, five..." "Six, seven, eight, nine, ten..." "Eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen..." "This is driving me crazy!" " Sir!" " The men?" "The Royal Guard and Tribunal soldiers under our command number less than twenty." " Arm the men who are here." " Yes, sir." "What can we do with so few?" "Is it possible that..." "The Third War Minister would plan something so reckless in the Palace?" "But why else would he go out of his way to take command over all the Palace soldiers?" "Your Majesty...!" "Your Majesty." "Why are you outside?" "I couldn't sleep." "Perhaps it is because I am away from the Palace." " Your Majesty, you..." " I know what you want to say." " But it is useless, so don't." " Your Majesty, you must not abdicate." "Please reconsider your decision!" "Reconsider?" "Are you really going to say that when we all know I'll be hearing that endlessly later?" "Your Majesty, please consider the chaos that this will bring." "I'm certain that this is not what Consort Sook wants either." "But we all know that this is the best option, don't you agree?" "Your Majesty..." "Letting go of my crown was the best decision I made as King." "The Crown Prince is like a candle in the wind." "If I die and he becomes King," "He will be swayed by the ministers." "And the crown's authority may break down." "So just as King Taejong did," "I will abdicate and crown the Crown Prince." "Then Prince Yeon Ing will be Heir Successor," "And the crown's authority will not be weakened." "I hope you understand why I made this decision." "That is if you truly care about me." "You are the foundation of this nation, Your Majesty." "How can you turn away from this?" "What is it to be King?" "Even if I let go of the crown, Consort Sook will be with me." "She is more important to me than being King." "Your Majesty, everything is ready." "You can leave once daybreak comes." "Once the inspection is complete, I want to go hunting." "I'm going to catch a big deer and make flower shoes with them." "Yes, Your Majesty." " What time is it?" " Just past 5 am, My Lord." "My Lord." "How did it go?" "Everything will proceed as ordered, My Lord." "Now all that's needed is the Queen's action." "My help?" "What can I do, Third War Minister?" "Hasten Consort Sook's departure from the Palace." "What?" "Have her leave the Palace for Yihyun Palace tomorrow." "But her departure was planned for after His Majesty's return." "His Majesty isn't here, and there is no..." "Your Majesty, it is precisely because he is not here." "No one knows what they are planning during His Majesty's absence." "Her departure was already ordered," "So it is better for everyone that she leaves sooner than later." "Are you sure we can leave this to you?" "If you're worried, then stand back, Your Excellency." "Third War Minister!" "His Majesty isn't doing this to scare everyone." "He sincerely wants to abdicate." "If he abdicates and the Prince becomes Heir Successor," "Consort Sook will wield considerable power." "That means we're finished!" "The only opportunity we have to get rid of Consort Sook and the Prince is now." "If His Majesty returns, we will not have this opportunity again." "Excellency!" "Sir!" "Did they do anything last night?" "We followed Lord Jang's man, Officer Min, but we lost him." "He must have known he was being followed." "Sir!" "Inspector Sir!" " Bad.. bad news!" " What is it?" "What?" "Her Majesty ordered me to leave today?" "Yes, we just received her order." "What is this I hear?" "Today?" "She's not supposed to leave until later." "That's why I'm going crazy." "The Queen ordered her gone immediately." "She's bullying our Consort Sook because His Majesty isn't here." "Before it was His Majesty who went crazy." "Now it's the Queen." "So?" "Is Consort Sook going to fight back or what?" "Your Majesty." "Consort Sook is here." "Your Majesty." "Leave the Palace?" "We have no soldiers to protect her." "That is exactly what Jang Mu-Ryeol wanted." "If Consort Sook and the Prince leave now," "The few men we have must be split up even further." "He has us backed into a corner." "Are you saying that they're really going to try to kill the two of them?" "They're crazy!" "How can Jang Mu-Ryeol do something so reckless?" "Please reconsider your decision." "Please give me just a little bit more time." "Your Majesty." "What happened, Your Highness?" "What did Her Majesty say?" "Prepare to leave the Palace, Lady Bong." "What?" "You mean she wants us to leave right now?" "Your Highness!" " Mother!" " Your Highness!" " Mother!" " Geum!" "You're leaving the Palace now?" "Why?" "Is it true that Father told you to leave?" "But you ordered the attendants not to tell me anything?" " Geum, come close to me." " Why?" "Why do you have to leave?" "I don't want you to go!" "If you go, then I'll go with you!" "Geum, just because I'm leaving doesn't mean I can't see you anymore." "You can come to me everyday," "And I can come to the Palace when I miss you." "I don't like it!" "I don't want you to leave the Palace!" "Silly boy, does a man cry because his mother is leaving him?" "What did I say?" "You must grow up now that you're married." "Mother, why did Father tell you to leave?" "I'm angry with Father!" "I've never been angry with him before, but I'm angry with him now." "No, Geum, you mustn't feel that way." "Everything is for your sake." "Father has done all of this for you," "Just like when you and I lived outside the Palace." "How?" "How is this for my sake?" "Geum..." "Please tell me why you have to leave the Palace." "Your Majesty, please reconsider your decision!" "Crown Prince!" "I'm going to ask Father to reconsider too." "You can always make this decision when Father is back in the Palace." "Please reconsider your decision!" "I can't do that, Crown Prince." "This is a matter of the Inner Court." "You have no say here." "Your Majesty!" "You will return and continue with your duties." "His Majesty is not present in the Palace." "That means you must take his place." "I heard there is a banquet for veteran ministers today." "You must attend in His Majesty's place, so you will return and get ready." " Your Majesty!" " Go!" "Where is Chief Suh?" "He is accompanying His Majesty during his inspections." "Where are they?" " You have to make sure this route is..." " Lieutenant!" " Yes, sir!" " How are the men?" "One group will guard Consort Sook's journey to Yihyun Palace..." "While the other half will stay with Prince Yeon Ing here." "We need more men to protect Consort Sook." "But we already have the bare minimum to guard the Prince." " Carry out." " Yes, sir!" "These men are from the Ministry of War to guard you on your journey to Yihyun Palace." "They will stay to guard Yihyun Palace, so please don't worry, Your Highness." "Why are you doing this?" "Why have you taken command over all the soldiers and threatening me like this?" "Threatening you?" "I am only concerned about your safety, Your Highness." "Third War Minister!" "And I don't think I'm the one who's up to no good." "You've prepared something quite surprising by manipulating His Majesty." "But things will never go your way." "The safety of Her Highness is first and foremost." " Make sure of it." " Yes, My Lord!" " Your Highness." " He knows." "He knows what His Majesty is planning to do." "If it's true that Jang Mu-Ryeol knows everything," "Then there is definitely a conspiracy." "He knows more than anyone that he is finished..." "If Prince Yeon Ing becomes Heir Successor." "You must delay your departure, Your Highness." "No, I will leave today as ordered." "Your Highness!" "Leave all the men here to guard Prince Yeon Ing." "Your Highness, but..." "He may be desperate but he won't do anything to me in public." "So please stay here and make sure Prince Yeon Ing is safe." " Your Highness!" " Please do as I ask, Chun Soo!" "How do they look?" "Terrified." "You were right about everything." "Yes, now that I've scared them," "They'll do everything that I want them to." "We can't guarantee Prince Yeon Ing's safety, Inspector Cha." "There are mountains on the way to Yihyun Palace that are prime spots for an ambush." "If they are after Consort Sook's life..." "Sir, we need to use a private army." "Please gather the ministers' secret private army." " The Noron ministers' private army?" " Yes." "By now, the messenger will have reached Chief Suh" "And the Royal Guards should be on their way back here." "We must protect Consort Sook until the Royal Guard arrive, My Lord." "Troop one and two will return to the Palace immediately." "Hurry!" "Yes, sir!" "Give this to His Majesty when he returns." "Yes, sir." " Leave immediately!" " Yes, sir!" "Chief Suh!" "Stop!" "Your Majesty!" "Deliver this to all the Noron Ministers." "Tell them we must have as many private soldiers as possible." "Yes, Excellency." "The Lady Investigators will guard you personally," "And Inspector Cha will gather as many private soldiers as possible." "Private soldiers?" "Yes, it appears that is the best option right now." "And I don't think I'm the one who's up to no good." "You've prepared something quite surprising by manipulating His Majesty." "But things will never go your way." "Even so, a man as cold-hearted as Lord Jang will never do anything so reckless." "What could it be?" "What could he possibly want?" "Everything is going the way we planned." "Are you certain?" "What if others find out that..." "You're after Consort Sook and Prince Yeon Ing?" "What do you mean I'm after Consort Sook and Prince Yeon Ing?" "I never said such a thing." "What do you mean?" "If not, then what were all these plans for?" "Yes, I will use this opportunity to get rid of them and their supporters too." "But I never said I would do so myself." "I am not so reckless." "Then who would do this?" " His Majesty." " What?" "His Majesty will be the one who will finish off Consort Sook and Prince Yeon Ing." "Your Majesty, this is...!" "Your Highness." " Is everything ready?" " Yes, Your Highness." "I will pay my respects to the Crown Prince first." "Send them word of my arrival." " Yes, Your Highness." "Hurry along." " Yes, My Lady." "Your Highness, you must leave." "The banquet is soon to begin." "Yes, all right." "We have to delay my departure?" "Yes, one of the palanquin carriers fell ill." "They need to find a replacement." "A carrier fell ill?" "Yes, that's what we've been told." "It appears you have to wait a while." "Is that so?" "All right." "You must watch these two points here towards Yihyun Palace." "These are quiet places that an ambush can occur." " Do you understand?" " Yes, sir!" "The palanquin must have left by now, so they should arrive at this point soon." "First group will guard the first spot, while the rest will stay here with me." "Make sure you are on your guard." " Do you hear?" " Yes, sir!" "Let's go!" " Your Highness." " I'm here to see His Highness." "Pardon me, but His Highness is not in, Your Highness." "Indeed?" "Perhaps he is at the Assembly Hall?" "No, he just left the Palace." "Left the Palace?" "Where did he go?" "Let's go!" "A banquet?" "Yes, he is going in His Majesty's place." "I wanted to pay my respects before I left," "But it appears I've come too late." " All right." " Yes, Your Highness." "You may be able to see him on your way to Yihyun Palace," "So please don't worry." "She just said that the Crown Prince went to a banquet for the veteran ministers." "That means he must have gone to the Bureau of Veteran Affairs," "So you can stop by and pay your respects there." "Is the banquet there?" "Yes, that's where they usually hold them." " The Bureau of Veteran Affairs?" " Your Highness?" "But that's at Yihyun Palace where I'm going." "What's wrong, Your Highness?" "That means... that means...!" "Your Highness!" "The Crown Prince must not be harmed." " Do you hear me?" " There will be no errors, My Lord." "What do you mean His Majesty will finish off Consort Sook and the Prince himself?" "Because Consort Sook is going to make an attempt on the Crown Prince's life." "What?" "Today, Consort Sook and her supporters will use His Majesty's absence to make an attempt on the Crown Prince's life." "That's it." "That's why I took command and hastened her departure." "They will gather a private army for her guard," "And that guard will make an attempt on the Crown Prince." " Third War Minister!" " But don't worry, Your Excellency." "The Crown Prince will not be harmed," "And they will all lose their lives for attempted assassination." "Your Excellency..." " We haven't found anything." " All right." "Let's go!" "Yes, sir!" "Gently!" "Please!" "Don't you think she's perfect for Ho-Yang?" "She's pretty enough, but her face...!" "She's not my style." "She's going to be your daughter-in-law, not your concubine." "What I mean is that our tastes are similar, ...and I wonder if she'll be up to his standard." "In any case, where did he go?" "Where else?" "He's gone to see Consort Sook." "When is that boy ever going to grow up?" "You grow up yourself!" "Move!" "Move out of the way!" "What's this?" "That's not my beloved Consort Sook." "Damn it!" "When is she going to be her anyway?" "This was it." "This was his plan." "He wasn't after us." "He's going to attack the Crown Prince and frame us for it." " What?" " Your Highness!" "We need to tell the others." "We need to catch them." "Yes, Your Highness!" " Your Highness..." " How could they?" "How...?" "Please, Chun Soo..." "Please don't do anything!" "Be on your guard!" "Wait, that's...!" "I'm going to go and check something." "Stay here." "Sir!" "It's a trap!" "Consort Sook has ordered you not to make a move." "What do you mean don't make a move?" " Your Highness!" " What's going on?" "Bombs!" "Protect the Crown Prince!" "Protect His Highness!" "It's an attack!" "Consort Sook has been attacked." "Let's go!" "No!" "Stop!" "Stop!" "I said stop!" "It's a trap!" "Was this it?" "Was this your plan, Jang Mu-Ryeol?" " Deliver this to Her Majesty." " Yes, My Lady." "What?" "The Crown Prince's procession was attacked?" "How is the Crown Prince?" "Is he safe?" "Yes, fortunately he escaped unharmed." "Now everything is revealed, Your Majesty." "Consort Sook tried to attack the Crown Prince." "Are you certain that Consort Sook was involved?" "Inspector Cha Chun Soo, her brother, was arrested on the spot." "They gathered the Noron private armies in order to attack the Crown Prince, Your Majesty!" "This was his plan." "He was going to frame all of us for the attack." "Your Majesty, you must seize them before they escape." " Me?" " Yes, Your Majesty." "Order an emergency decree as Queen." "Have Consort Sook and her supporters all arrested." "Emergency decree?" "Yes, since the Crown Prince hasn't arrived yet," "Your emergency decree is like an imperial decree." "There is no time to waste." "You must have them arrested." "Your Majesty!" "Your Highness!" "You must leave at least until His Majesty returns." " Please!" " No." " I won't do that." " Your Highness!" "Your Highness, you're going to be framed." "Your Highness, please!" "All right, Third War Minister." "I will issue an emergency decree and have the culprits seized immediately." "That is the right decision, Your Majesty." "If they are guilty of threatening the Crown Prince's life and showing disdain for the Royal Crown," "They must surely pay for their crimes." "Go back and wait for my order, Third War Minister." "I will send the emergency decree soon." "Yes, Your Majesty." "My Lord." "It's over." "Now Her Majesty will take care of the rest." "What trouble she has caused." "I fear that lowborn's fate is about to end." "Lady Yi!" "Are you there?" " Yes, Your Majesty?" " Summon the Chief Secretary." "Yes, Your Majesty." "Have Consort Sook, Prince Yeon Ing and all their supporters arrested immediately!" " Yes, My Lord." "Let's go!" " Yes, sir!" "What?" "The Crown Prince's life was in danger?" " So is Older Brother safe now?" " Yes, His Highness is safe." "What is the meaning of this?" "Why are you doing this?" "What... what is this?" "Why are you soldiers here?" " Surround the Prince's palace!" " Yes, sir!" "Your Highness!" "Your Highness, what's happening?" "What did I tell you, Your Highness?" "I told you that you would regret turning away from my hand." "Yes, how I regret it." "If I had taken your hand, this would never have happened today." "Unfortunately it's too late for regrets, Your Highness." " Arrest Consort Sook immediately!" " Yes, My Lord!" "Arrest Consort Sook!" "Why are you standing there?" "Didn't you hear His Lordship's order?" "How dare you!" "They will not obey you, Third War Minister." "They are here at my command to arrest you." "What?" " Arrest the criminals!" " Yes, My Lady!" "What?" "You mean you're here to guard the Prince, not arrest him?" "Yes, My Lady." "Let go!" "How dare you arrest me!" "You wretches!" "Let go!" "How dare you!" "I'm not the one you should be arresting." "The Queen has issued an emergency decree to arrest Consort Sook." "Emergency decree?" "You mean this, Third War Minister?" " Your Highness." " Chief Secretary, what...?" "Yes, as you advised," "The Queen issued an emergency decree to arrest the criminal who threatened the Crown Prince's life." "And the criminal is Lord Jang Mu-Ryeol." "You, Third War Minister."
