"Episode 22" "Move!" "The punk uses inner power." "We need backup." "Hurry!" "The one who committed such a deed upon the Queen and upon our child ..." "I'm on my way to meet him." "Yes." "I also thought over it many times." "That I want to run and kill him now." "I want to give the order to have him killed." "But I'm holding back." "I am aware of it." "People ... eventheGeneralcan'tunderstandme." "Must I insist upon it when I could just cast an order?" "But I am aware of it." "I already understand it." "The time to return may become long." "I will be waiting." "High Doctor!" "High Doctor?" "What happened?" "About that, the bamboo hat came and now he's gone." "You punk is always talking in halves." "High Doctor, what's happened?" "You were making the antidote." "There's nothing left." "Not one bit." "High Doctor!" "The tool's gone." "Here." "He didn't come to kill me." "He came to take my tools, it seems." "He should just ask for it then!" "It seems he trailed you from the palace, most likely." "He must have had that in mind from the start, when he came to find High Doctor." "By chance is that ..." "Was that tethered on that person's sword?" "The one that belonged to that betrothed?" "Maybe." "I, really... would like to know something." "There is really something I need to know." "Please tell me." "That person's betrothed." "When she passed away, that person suffered a lot, right?" "That's true." "How hard was it for him?" "How long?" "What is it that you wish to know?" "That thing that's shattered." "My antidote." "In order to culture that again from the start it will take some time, you see." "However it can't be done before the heaven door opens, no matter what." "So the other option is to give all that up and give up on returning and start over." "But that may not succeed, you see." "If it doesn't, then I have to die." "Me." "So if that doesn't succeed and I die ..." "what about that person?" "You intend to stay?" "Would that be crazy?" "It is crazy, isn't it?" "But if I just leave then I think I really will go crazy for real." "Everyday I will only think about this." "Will that person be alright?" "Is he really alright?" "Is he alright?" "You should ask him yourself." "That rascal never really talks about himself to others so his words will be clumsy." "However, ask him." "Then he will answer, to High Doctor." "This is the imperial letter to enthrone Prince Deok Heung." "Things would've been much easier if you had given it to me sooner." "Your Highness Prince Deok Heung." "I shall ask." "Go ahead." "When you ascend to Goryeo's throne, what is the first item you will accomplish?" "As agreed, giving Goryeo to Yuan, would that do?" "Afterwards?" "Then I shall become Prime Minister." "Right." "Prince of the Court from Deokseong who worked hard this time ..." "I shall reward him suitably." "And then?" "Is there something you need too, Dansa Officer?" "Just tell me." "So the answer just now satisfies you?" "I am satisfied." "Since as long as those who are busy fighting for their vested rights govern this land, they will not become a harm to Yuan nation." "I heard you are a Goryeo person, I think." "Yes." "A long time ago, when I had hope that used to matter." "Once upon a time, I had thought we could reclaim Goguryeo land, even I did well." "There was a time I had believed such even." "As long as I do well." "Goguryeo land?" "[1 of the 3 kingdoms of old Korea, prior to Goryeo period]" "However, it seems the world is always full of people like you, Prince of the Court." "The rest merely get dragged along." "In that case, perhaps the likes of a name of a land doesn't matter." "I came to that conclusion." "I won't be attending the crime inquiry." "Then ..." "General." "Yes, Your Majesty." "Today could turn out quite perilous." "It seems it will." "Did you bid the greeting, to High Doctor?" "Since I plan to return, I didn't make separate greetings." "For His Majesty the King's royal presence to descend ..." "The prelude." "I'll decline." "Prince Deok Heung." "Yes, Your Majesty." "I'll give you a final chance." "Either you are put to death for the crime of kidnapping the Queen, or leave this land." "Your Majesty." "This is a crime inquiry." "Whether the one who's captured here is innocent or guilty of the said crime." "How was he wrongly accused?" "To reckon each ..." "I am telling you right now, I will forgive you." "I will forgive everything, so leave this land." "And I will expunge your name of royalty." "Do not ever covet the seat of the king again." "With that, let us see that citizens of this nation do not fight against each other." "Prince of the Court, carry it out." "This is the imperial letter of the Emperor given to me by Yuan's Dansa Officer." "From today forward, the throne, has been handed over to His Highness Prince Deok Heung here." "Anyone who defies the command of the Yuan Emperor, is to become a Yuan traitor." "As well as a traitor of this nation." "Prince Deok Heung." "Yes, Nephew." "Must you insist on bloodshed?" "Since it's not Uncle's blood, it's alright?" "If you detest blood so much, don't resist then." "Right now in the royal palace the statesmen are likely gathered." "I plan to ask them." "Which king would they choose between me and Uncle." "Hence, wait a bit longer ..." "Statesmen or citizens, I dislike such nuisances." "Let's do this." "The former king holds discontent over the current enthronement." "For his crime of treason against the King, we had no choice but to kill him." "Uncle!" "I have more to say." "They are not ones that words will work." "Dol Bae." "I will escort you out." "No, General." "I must remain." "Let's go." "It looks like it will take a while." "A situation has occurred inside." "Prepare to face off." "When do we ambush?" "Not yet." "Standby until the order is here." "Until when?" "I said, standby!" "Currently, His Majesty the King ..." "is being detained at Eastern Expansion Headquarters." "Prince of the Court from Deokseong, along with the lords of the power houses, enthroned Prince Deok Heung and raised a coup." "His Majesty ..." "is only under the protection of a few over ten Woodalchi troops." "His Majesty ..." "Her Highness the Queen is arriving." "Before His Majesty left for the Expansion Headquarters, his words to relay to you statesmen, I shall relay." "This is the royal decree to dispatch the palace armies." "And this is the royal seal." "His Majesty, to you statesmen, he wished to entrust it in your care." "Entrust the royal seal?" "If by chance ..." "His Majesty should suffer any incident ..." "he said to have you statesmen to handle the aftermath." "Do you mean for us to command an attack on the Eastern Expansion Headquarters?" "That is correct." "Then you mean for us to stamp the royal seal?" "We're going this direction." "The entrance is that way." "I'm not leaving." "I will continue to stay here." "Your Majesty." "If the command is due to come, it should've been here already." "It will come soon." "First, we'll send someone to the Expansion Headquarters." "And find out exactly what's happened." "His Majesty... is in a life and death situation." "Find out more of what?" "I am aware of what many statesmen are fearing." "Today, for us to attack the Eastern Expansion Headquarters means we're attacking Yuan nation." "It means waging war with the Yuan nation." "You dread to have to make that decision with your hands." "The Yuan imperial letter has arrived, I'm told." "To Prince Deok Heung ..." "they've given the throne." "Think properly!" "Not the king bestowed by Yuan." "But he's the king we supported ourselves." "Isn't the king originally the king bestowed by Yuan as well?" "Are we not going to dispatch the army?" "His Majesty is in danger!" "We can't." "Not a war." "We can't attack the high nation." "How can we send the royal armies to the Expansion Headquarters?" "There's a battle inside." "His Majesty?" "I don't know." "When exactly are those geezers going to cast the order?" "Can't we just enter without an order?" "Inside, there's only twelve Woodalchis." "Currently 900 of the Royal army men are surrounding this Eastern Expansion Headquarters." "I know." "With your simple order, those men can overtake this Eastern Expansion Headquarters right away." "I'm sure they could." "But in order to follow your strategy, they are waiting to receive the official letter of attack given by the statesmen, sealed by the Royal Seal." "Would they just leave their King to be in danger?" "That's what you had thought." "Isn't that right?" "However, at this time, those statesmen are probably getting a headache...as they are putting Your Majesty and Prince Deok Heung on a scale to measure and compare." "Because they are so feeble, we need a day like today." "If those people continue to waver like this," "I cannot accomplish anything in the future." "If you drag this on too long, then..." "I may not be able to protect you." "It is a matter of sending my people into a war zone." "I need permission." "Those statesmen... and the citizens, do you trust them?" "General." "Yes, Your Majesty." "I am now... thinking that I am one of those citizens." "I understand." "Stand by in Janggi palace." "One of you three needs to go to the rear end to save energy." "The rest of you will protect His Majesty inside." "How much danger are they in?" "Our Woodalchis?" "They are fine." "General is with them." "I've just heard the news that the opponent is using the Chalinjeon strategy." "We are lacking in numbers." "Even if it's the General, there will be a limit to his strength." "Then... there will be a lot of bloodshed." "It's alright." "General is..." "What are you thinking about?" "Just that..." "living here... would mean something like this." "He has... always lived like this..." "This kind of thought..." "Hwa Soo In!" "Chun Eum Ja!" "Are you here?" "What took you so long?" "Now that you are here, why aren't you taking us out quickly?" "Prince Deok Heung has received the Royal Imperial letter." "Even if you kill the royal army men, we will take care of it." "So don't worry about it." "Then, let's do it this way." "Those who are for ordering attack can stand on this side." "Those who are against can stand on that side." "Let's follow the majority." "Where is the rule that says majority is right?" "That is correct." "Just because majority is for it doesn't mean we can go to the war." "You should reconsider." "What on earth are you waiting for?" "We should hurry and go to the palace while the Royal Throne is unoccupied." "I cannot go." "Why not?" "Because the royal army men are surrounding this Eastern Expansion Headquarters." "I am the King." "And the Royal army is the King's army." "You tell that to the Royal army men." "Then what shall we do?" "The current King should die for us." "But that evil ghostly guy, Choi Young, is preventing it." "If you keep sending such pawns, do you think you can kill that man?" "At least we should send the pawn so we can tie him up!" "If I could have gone to get him myself... 500 more of our private soldiers are on their way here." "300 of Lord Park's private soldiers and" "Gyeam Fortress will also send 400." "When will they arrive?" "Our soldiers will come at around 1 o'clock." "The rest will probably arrive around sunset." "Did you hear that?" "This is what I've been waiting for." "We don't have much time." "But to go to war..." "We can't keep wasting time like this." "Your Royal Highness, the Queen." "Please take care of your royal health and if you could go inside..." "Why don't you just... say that you will abandon us?" "Just say that the statesmen will abandon His Majesty." "So just say it." "His Majesty is still waiting with hope." "He will be waiting one night, no, even a hundred nights." "But I cannot bear to watch this any longer." "So, why don't you just abandon him instead?" "You don't have the courage to abandon, or the courage to take charge?" "Report." "Begin operation." "We're going in to escort His Majesty." "Yes." "The royal armies!" "Can't be possible." "They wouldn't dare to attack this Headquarters." "They'll just put up a siege." "They've already penetrated the fortress gate." "They're shooting in, My Lord." "No, go see clearly." "They're probably just laying a siege." "Those guys wouldn't have the nerves to." "My Lord." "Your health is weak already." "If we're besieged then ..." "Me?" "By who?" "Why?" "Where's His Majesty?" "What about Prince Deok Heung?" "We're looking for him." "Tell him I went to look for the bastard." "I came to escort Your Majesty." "Did you come after receiving a dispatch order?" "We received it and came." "It's a royal decree to dispatch the armies consented by all the statesmen, as I heard." "Right now, Your Majesty's royal armies are in the process of requisitioning the entire headquarters." "And General?" "Where is General?" "General!" "You guys worked hard." "I'll help you." "Taking off your armor." "No need." "Don't be like that." "Turning your back on me and evading me, don't do that to me." "It's not my blood." "I know." "The opponents I fought against today were all normal soldiers." "Slaying them ..." "was not difficult." "Hence ..." "In the end, we failed to capture Prince Deok Heung." "If we had, we finally would have the justification to kill him." "Since he tried to kill the king, he would have no where else to sneak out from." "The Expansion Headquarters has been completely requisitioned, I'm told." "Now I'm pondering what I would use that fortress for." "What would be good?" "What is today's worry, Your Majesty?" "During the day, you moved the hearts of the statesmen." "And at night, you try to penetrate the king's thoughts?" "Your Majesty." "To Choi Young, I did an undoable deed." "Did he get hurt?" "In order to prevent more bloodshed," "I had only General shed blood." "I fulfilled my justification." "And the price was paid by the General." "I cannot be peaceful in my heart at all." "Leave?" "Why?" "But aren't I Goryeo's king?" "I have the Imperial letter from the Emperor." "And you, Dansa Officer, acknowledge me." "Leave immediately now." "Once daylight breaks, the king's armies will come searching in here." "Look here, Dansa Officer." "I still have a card left." "If you have something left, hand it to them." "By them?" "Do you mean Prince of the Court from Deokseong?" "If you want to return again, leave here without delay." "Return again?" "There's really no one to hold the current king in check." "So I'm helping you survive." "Wait for the opportunity." "Take this person to Jangseo." "There will be people waiting there." "And this." "There will be a large forge in Jangseo." "Stop by there and have them melt these." "Confirm that they are melted until the end, in case any should escape in the process." "Follow him." "Prince of the Court." "Prince of the Court's items." "Relic of Hwata." "I will tell you where they are." "In exchange, avenge a grudge of mine." "Go ahead and speak." "See that the wench and bastard are disposed of." "When I return again, I want those things to be absent of this land." "Though I know who you speak of ..." "That woman." "She has yet another heaven item." "Heaven item?" "There's paper in there in the like of a notebook." "In that paper there's what you called heaven writing." "The content was a type of prophecy." "By that you mean ..." "It was inside a container this big." "The material of the container is one that I've never seen." "Did you not say the likes of a heaven world was false?" "Though I don't know if that's heaven or some place hidden on the land ..." "a place like that definitely exists." "That wicked chit of a girl who's from there is definitely making a prophecy." "One among the three relic ..." "the rest of what I gave to that woman, I burned it." "The top part, I put it in the safest place." "Try to pull hard." "It's a sturdy and good hand so it's strange." "I need some apparatus to examine properly." "To see if it's a nerve-related or psychological." "Try and lay down." "Lay down?" "I'm treating you, so listen well." "You said it was your teacher's sword, right?" "Yes." "Sit down." "This sword is called Precious Sword." "Usually a sword gets dull as you slay people, but this sword, it doesn't scratch even if you cut a stone." "And blood doesn't stain it easily either." "Yesterday I saw blood on it." "When you draw the sword it isn't noisy either." "If you see it in a dark place, it has a faint luster." "Like moonlight." "So I stabbed you with this." "This rascal stabbed his teacher too." "It was very hard for you, when your teacher passed away like that, right?" "Yes." "Is that why you just kept on sleeping?" "To meet him in your dream?" "First, he would show up a few times but then he never showed up, even though I waited." "If by chance ..." "Yes?" "If you hadn't met me, would you still be sleeping so?" "I have no idea... what I would be like if I hadn't met Imja." "At all." "That punk that gave poison to Imja, I failed to capture him." "And the one that menaced Imja, I let him go as well." "This sword didn't slay what it needed to slay." "It keeps on slaying the pitiful things only." "The decision came late." "Including Prince of the Court from Deokseong's main household and six power households, attack them as high treasoners." "In addition, including Yeongbin Hall and the head of Pro-Yuan, there's no exception to any so ransack thoroughly and find Prince Deok Heung." "That's all." "We received your order." "General." "Yes, Your Majesty." "How many more days until the date High Doctor is due to return?" "Thirteen days left." "Today just do the matter of chasing Prince Deok Heung and spend the rest of the day with High Doctor." "I heard about the antidote making coming to naught." "So do that." "Stay with her." "She said not to tell you, but High Doctor cried a lot." "She cried so I couldn't talk." "She cried?" "She sobbed and cried more." "I never saw a person cry like that." "Amidst that she was very worried about you." "If you'd be alright after she left." "What will happen to you if she just stayed and died in front of you." "She didn't care what would happen to her at all, and was just worried about you." "So I told her she should ask you in person." "Did she?" "Commanding General Choi Young." "There is something I'd like to ask you." "Yes." "There are words that a black wagon was spotted the night Eastern Expansion was requisitioned." "In pursuit of Prince Deok Heung, that wagon was spotted leaving the fortress." "And we verified it was Dansa Officer's wagon." "Is that so?" "Did you sneak Prince Deok Heung out?" "I've already sent him to Yuan." "I will verify." "I heard from Prince Deok Heung." "Flying tick poison." "Is that right?" "And you are also aware that that poison has no antidote?" "I've met High Doctor and I've confirmed she's a heaven person." "So?" "I let her be since she'll come to die anyway." "From what I know, because of that woman, you could die as well." "Don't leave that woman by your side." "What trick are you trying to pull?" "Just a slight word of allegiance toward Goryeo." "Because of High Doctor, I die?" "It's possible, I'm saying." "And be careful of Prince of the Court from Deokseong." "That's what I can tell you." "That's it." "If it's according to what I learned, your pulse is very strong and good without any blockage." "Right." "And also ..." "Soap and cosmetics for Queen and Court Lady Choi." "I made it with the red ginseng Deo Gi had collected." "It's famous in heaven too." "Your skin will get even better and you will receive even more love from the King." "You are already preparing?" "You are making farewell preparations, right?" "When do you plan to leave that you're already ..." "What you were curious about last time, I will answer it." "When the baby of you two would come, and what will happen to you later on." "You said you wanted to know, right?" "If I were to tell you your baby won't come until 10 years later, what will you two do?" "Then are you two not going to see other in the meantime?" "I understand what you're saying now." "You two don't get to be together for very long." "No matter how hard you try, it's less than 100 years." "100 years." "So day by day, like today, love." "Love." "Just so happy, that words cannot fill." "Yearning even if you're next to each other." "That." "Love." "General." "I heard you got ambushed while you were in my room." "All the antidote research shattered and failing to tell me even til now." "That ..." "What exactly are you thinking?" "I was going to act like nothing happened." "What?" "I did get attacked but the Woodalchi protected me so I was fine." "The antidote shattered but I will make it again." "Make it again?" "Yup." "Can that be done before Imja dies, I ask?" "I'm making it in order to live, so why do you talk about dying first?" "Don't be like that, and let's go to our room." "Once." "Just this once." "I tried to break my promise." "My promise to return Imja, in breaking it, I harbored greed." "Without any measure." "When I can't even protect you." "As Imja's life is wagered away." "What have I just done?" "Why do you make a promise by yourself?" "When I said not to?" "What I said before." "That I would ask Imja to stay." "I will take them back." "I thought wrong and I spoke wrong." "Look here." "I will go first." "The liquid assets have been moved to Yuan already, so we won't see much loss." "But the mansion here and the lands and the slaves, these things are rather hard to spare." "I have to go and claim my items." "That Hwata relic again?" "But weren't they items you didn't even know what they were anyways, even though you had them for decades?" "Find them and do what?" "Since they are mine." "How can we get it out when it's in the King's room?" "And how can we believe it, if that punk said the truth?" "Whether he told the truth or made a lie ..." "we need to open the lid first to know." "It doesn't necessarily have to be heaven." "Right." "It could be a nation hidden in this land." "Why didn't that thought occur to me?" "Um, before the government soldiers come, we should hurry and leave." "Why?" "Let's take our time a bit." "I have to pay back for dousing me in oil last time." "If I can just burn like 15 of them I would feel better." "That woman ..." "I think I need to meet her." "I said she can't be found!" "Not the palace medical office nor Suribang." "Not there." "I thought maybe she's planted someone in the palace but no one says they know." "Once a day she goes to treat the Queen." "But no one sees her come and go." "It seems she's going around in a disguise." "In order to summon that woman out ..." "we just need Choi Young, right?" "By that bastard ..." "great by me." "That man was a bit strange." "Choi Young ..." "I willhandlehim ." "I will." "Pledged Brother." "Why are you so obsessed about that woman?" "It seems you don't actually want her either." "Maybe because I can't have her?" "That's why I burn like this?" "What are you doing?" "The promise to return Imja, in order to keep that, first we need Imja alive." "I will protect you until then, so ..." "Just stay glued to my side, I'm saying." "Let me first." "Right here, by my side." "If you're far, it's that much harder to protect you." "It's late at night." "Yes." "I will escort you to the barracks." "I'll just go in later." "It's that General doesn't know how to express himself." "But if you get to know him, his temperament isn't exactly all that foul." "I don't know." "By chance ..." "If it's uncomfortable to stay in that room, I will look for another dorm." "Should I?" "Indeed." "Everyone's been worried." "At General's temperament, he wouldn't just give you his bed." "According to the kids, every night, you have two chairs bunched together ..." "and you sleep like that, so we should put in a cot." "Well that's what the kids say." "Take me there." "If something troubles you, please tell me anytime." "I'm here." "Tomorrow... we're leaving." "No." "Tomorrow morning." "Early." "Earlier you only said your words and left." "So hear my words now." "I will listen." "As for me ..." "I will make my medicine." "And I will stay here." "You can't." "I will remain." "And I will be by your side." "Whether I should go or shouldn't ... toworryaboutthat ." "I don't want to waste each day like that." "Right now ..." "do you know what you're saying?" "I do!" "If the work doesn't succeed ..." "I could die." "In front of your eyes." "If that happens, you watch me from now on." "Until the end." "Hug me until then." "Without leaving me to be alone." "Pack your stuff." "Right now." "We're going there and wait in front of it until the door opens." "I'm not going anywhere, I said." "I'm just going to stay here, I said." "Must I forcibly tie you up and carry you?" "And then?" "You send me off like that." "And then?" "Did you think about what I would be like?" "Did you think about me?" "But Imja can live there, you said." "Yes!" "I would live." "In my room in the heaven world." "I would just live." "Day after day." "Face people I don't know." "Clamor away the day saying things I don't mean." "Then when it's nighttime," "I'd return again to the room absent of anyone." "When I go to sleep ..." "I would call out at least once." ""Are you there?"" "I know." "There isn't such thing as an answer." "Then . .." "when I awake in the morning." "I'd live that one day again." "Like a dead person." "What it means to live like that ..." "You don't know that?" "But you do." "Because you would be like that as well." "These few days Imja is dying ..." "I couldn't even be by your side." "Instead of searching for medicine to save my woman," "I was killing people, I said." "How can someone like me protect Imja?" "How can I tell you to stay by my side?" "My heart that malfunctions ..." "is paying for wanting you without permission." "Even though it aches because it's you." "But because it's you I live again." "The hovering sad tears." "The one person who can erase them." "Would you know?" "That it was no coincidence ..."
