"Brought to you by WITH S2 Written In The Heavens Subbing Squad" "Please do NOT hardsub and/or stream this episode using our English subtitles." "Episode 27" "Your Highness!" "It's an insurrection!" "Baegeuk is leading the Biryu clan's troops, and advancing here." "Close all the gates, and deploy the Royal Guard." "Yes!" "I've come to seek audience with His Majesty." "His Majesty is not inside the palace." "Where did he go?" "To meet the Sangga." "His Majesty doesn't want to blame the entire Council... for this conspiracy by the Biryu clan and Buyeo." "His wish is to solve this impasse by condemning Baegeuk." "This is not the time to worry about that." "What is that supposed to mean?" "They staged a revolt." "Baegeuk is leading an army headed to the capital." " Ahh... that..." " His Majesty is in peril." "We must hurry up!" "Where is the Sangga?" "!" "Confined in prison." "Confined, you say?" "!" "Bring the Sangga right now!" "Yes." "What is going on here?" "You're witnessing all the efforts I went through over the years... turning into ashes." "Your Majesty." "You shouldn't be here." "Swiftly return to the palace now!" "What are you talking about?" "Baegeuk joined forces with Buyeo and staged a revolt." "The rebel troops will be marching towards the capital by now." "No matter how greedy a man can become, how can you join forces with Buyeo?" "!" "Buyeo's Black Shadows have already infiltrated Goguryeo." "There is no time to waste." "Escort His Majesty!" "Now!" "Escort His Majesty!" "Escort His Majesty out of here!" "Sangga!" "Sangga." "Sangga!" "Sangga!" "Your Majesty..." "I have always been... too much of a burden for you." "That's not true." "My ingenerous ways are to blame, for not accepting your help when I could." "Don't say that, Your Majesty." "My endless ambition brought Prince Dojeol to his demise, and in the end... even Prince Haemyeong." "Forgive... me..." "Sangga." "Daebo." "Your Highness." "You can't find His Majesty?" "!" "What is that supposed to mean?" "Go ahead and tell me!" "Baegeuk rose in revolt." "But, without realizing that, His Majesty went to visit the Sangga." "His Highness went after him, so don't worry too much." "Find His Majesty!" "Now!" "Yes!" "Take care of the Sangga's body." "Yes." "Your Highness!" "Chief of Security!" "Chief..." "What happened to His Majesty?" "!" "The Black Shadows... captured him." "We will trail the Black Shadows!" "You can't, Your Highness." "You must be prudent." "They're taking His Majesty away, prudent about what?" "!" "If you move in haste, you'll find yourself in peril." "What the Supervisor said is right." "They would take him as prisoner, and it would be even more dangerous for you." "You fool!" "Do you think the heavens will forgive you, after slaying your father and betraying your nation?" "!" "Be silent!" "We shall wait and see whose side the heavens are on." " Imprison him!" " Yes!" "This is not what we negotiated!" "Why are you sparing King Yuri?" "Why are you so daunted by that?" "We shall use King Yuri to slay Muhyul, so you needn't worry." "Chamgunnim!" "Maro!" "His Majesty?" "Is he unscathed?" "When we arrived, they had already killed the Sangga, and taken His Majesty prisoner." "His Highness ordered to summon you all for a meeting." "The rebel army is advancing towards the outskirts of the capital." "They're surely taking His Majesty there." "The rebels are blocking all the routes leading to the capital." "They'll be here soon, but our troops are still far away at the encampment." "How many of our troops remain inside the capital?" "Not even a thousand men." "The populace inside the capital was startled by the news." "Should they learn of what happened to His Majesty, we might be facing a tumult." "Baegeuk said he will not forget your meritorious service." "You must not be swayed by any means." "We now have crossed the river of no return." "I know." "I'm the one who put my own spouse in peril." "Why would I wish to survive this?" "All we can do now... is help Baegeuk to safeguard Yeojin's future." "Nunim, what is wrong with you?" "If you lose confidence now, what can I do?" "That's right." "There is nothing I will not do, if it's for Yeojin's sake." "I shall take all the blame." "I will." "Muhyul will now die, and you will soon find solace." "Wha..." "What did you just say?" "They murdered the Sangga and captured His Majesty?" "!" "Yes." "I must meet His Highness." "Before we take control of the capital, we must first attack the encampment hosting the Central Guard." "I shall be responsible for that." "Can't we just march for the capital without wasting any time?" "If we attack now, we will suffer significant casualties." "I shall head for the capital, and force Muhyul to surrender." "The rebels spread news about His Majesty on purpose." "But we can't distinguish between rebels and the rest." "Master!" "Master!" "It's trouble!" "In...." "In..." "Insurrection!" "They rose in revolt!" "You little fool, what are you prattling about?" "They're all preparing for the campaign against Yangmaek." "Who would be crazy enough to stage a revolt now?" "Ahhh..." "Baegeuk killed the Sangga, and even captured His Majesty!" "The entire capital is in tumult!" "For real?" "!" "Yes!" "The Sangga is dead..." "and even His Majesty..." "Yes!" "And I thought things were finally getting better." "Why now?" "!" "Gong Chan." "Yes?" "Let's pack our things." "Maenggwang Seonsaengnim, what a pleasure to meet you!" "Where is Yeon?" "I don't know." "How could a lowly merchant like me know where a Buyeo princess is?" "Slay them." "Wait!" "Wait!" "You can't." "You can't tell them!" "You crazy fool..." " You can't!" " Do you want to get us killed?" "!" " Take them!" " Yes!" "You..." "W..." "Wait!" "Maenggwang Seonsaengnim!" "So is this all Muhyul did to hide you?" "Way too simple." "I never imagined I'd find you so quickly." "That fool Muhyul keeps making things difficult for you." "He has never made anything difficult for me." "I am just saddened that I could only become a burden to him." "He has now made this my country, and the place where I wish to die, right by his side." "You will never stay by his side!" "King Yuri has been captured already, and we shall soon gain control of the capital." "You shall now see, how miserably his life will end, and how ingloriously this country will fall." "You shall see." "Take her!" "Stop this disgrace and slay me." "I'm afraid I can't do that, Your Majesty." "I shall soon visit Muhyul." "If Muhyul doesn't surrender, he will cause your demise." "Aren't you curious what decision Muhyul will make?" "It doesn't concern me either way." "If he surrenders to save Your Majesty, then I can just slay him afterwards." "But should he ignore you to save himself, it will be the people who shall punish him." "How did it go?" "Muhyul will not be able to deal with the tumult in the capital." "All that remains is marching to the capital." "Why did you bring that wench here?" "I will send her back to Buyeo." "Did they really capture Yuri?" "Yes, Your Majesty." "Looks like the clouds engulfing my soul are finally dissipating." " Chief Retainer." " Yes, Your Majesty." "I shall head to Goguryeo." "Your Majesty, they still don't have control of the capital." " As for heading to Goguryeo..." " All right." "I shall enter Goguryeo the moment Dojin gains control of the capital." "He will then slay Muhyul and Yuri... right under my eyes." " Make all preparations." " Yes, Your Majesty." "How did it go?" "We even deployed the army, but we can't stop the tumult." "I'll have to head to the Central Guard's encampment." "If I can't lead our troops and strike the rebels at the core, we will not be able to save His Majesty." "I will go." "Should you be harmed as well, our country's future would be in peril." "What the Supervisor said is right." "Whatever happens, your safety must be guaranteed." "If you join me now, I shall spare your lives." "Will you follow His Excellency?" "I'd rather perish than live in such wretched conditions." "Kill me now!" " Slaughter them all!" " Yes!" "Your Highness!" "Baegeuk sent a message." "We shall give you two days to decide." "If you wish to save His Majesty, open the fortress gates and surrender." "You fool!" "How dare you?" "!" "You must be aware of what will happen if I die here." "Stand back." "Is His Majesty unscathed?" "Of course." "He will not be touched for the next two days, but I can't guarantee what will happen afterwards." "Now everything depends on Your Highness's decision." "If you were thinking about the Central Guard's encampment," "I would abandon any hopes." "We already gained control there as well." "You must now think about the future." "The future?" "Before it's too late, leave the capital and find refuge." "Nunim!" "That is the only way to protect this country." "How can I abandon His Majesty and run away?" "Why do you think of it as running away?" "Even if they pierce his flesh, they must never slay his spirit." "You must survive and protect this country, if His Majesty's ardent wish is to live forever." " I can't do that." " Muhyul." "I shall find a way to rescue His Majesty." "I will save him whatever it takes, and protect this country!" "Aren't you curious about what decision Muhyul will make?" "It doesn't concern me either way." "If he surrenders to save Your Majesty, then I can just slay him afterwards." "But should he ignore you to save himself, it will be the people who shall punish him." "Muhyul." "May you survive this... and protect our nation." "May you overcome this ordeal, and become an even stronger ruler than your father." "Such is your path... and your destiny, my son Muhyul." "Follow me." "Now!" "He attempted to take his life." "He still is alive, so save him." "Is it true King Yuri attempted to take his life?" "That's right." "But he's still alive." "Princess Yeon is looking after him." "Do we really need to spend so much effort trying to save him?" "If they learn their ruler has died, you never know how the people will react." "He tried to take his own life to lessen the burden on Muhyul's shoulders, so not only the troops, but the chieftains must not learn of this as well." " Understood?" " Yes, Your Excellency." "Your Majesty!" "Can you hear me?" "Why did you save me?" "Your Majesty!" "If I am alive..." "I will become a burden to Muhyul." "Help me die." "Have faith in His Highness." "He shall overcome this crisis and rescue you, whatever it takes." "I shall deploy guards to protect you." "We will soon confront the rebels, so never leave your quarters." "Yes." "Your Highness!" "There is something I must confess." "As this country's crown princess, I committed a serious crime." "I knew of Baegeuk's conspiracy before it began." "Despite knowing that, I couldn't tell you the truth." " I only worried about my clan's..." " Enough." "Say no more." "I already made my promise to you." "As long as I am the crown prince, you will be safe." "Our marriage was a political expedient from the beginning, so I can't fault you for making a political decision." "But, I hope you will use this crisis as a lesson." "If the royal family is not secure, neither will you, so don't make foolish decisions again." "Your mother is looking for you." "Are you headed somewhere?" "We'll leave the palace now." "Leave the palace?" "Until this insurrection is tamed, we will find refuge outside." "All preparations are complete, so follow me." "Do you really plan to see me perish?" "!" "Your Highness, perishing?" "!" "Don't you know all this is for your own sake?" "The remaining troops inside the palace alone can't stop the rebels." "It is regretful, but we must save ourselves first." "Whatever it takes, I shall protect you." " Enough!" " Yeojin!" "How can you do this to me?" "How can this country's empress ignore our ruler, and even try to kill my brother?" "How could you join forces with Baegeuk and plot treason?" "!" "Join forces with whom?" "!" "And who is spreading such groundless talebearing?" "I've heard it all." "I've heard the Ubo and you plotting this revolt!" "If such is the case, I shall no longer hide it." "This is all for your sake, so follow your mother's will." "I'm not going to." "Do you think I'm enjoying this?" "!" "I'm shedding tears of blood inside!" "The thought of abandoning my spouse is killing me!" "But... there is no going back now." "Should this revolt fail, both you and I will meet our demise!" "I shall no longer follow your wishes." "Even if helping my brother will bring me death, I will remain here." "Nonsense!" "You must survive." "Survive, and become our next ruler!" " Mother!" " What are you waiting for?" "!" " Escort Yeojin out of here!" " Yes." "Your Highness!" "What is the matter?" "The Empress and His Highness have disappeared." "Prince Yeojin's quarters are empty as well." "Looks like they went outside the palace." "There is a servant who saw them escape furtively last night." "Then, are you telling me they ran away?" "If I may say..." "They didn't flee..." "Then, what?" "That..." "They already knew what Baegeuk..." "Enough." "Nobody within the palace must learn of their disappearance." " Bear that in mind." " Yes." "What is the matter?" "I can't take this anymore, Your Highness." "The rebels captured His Majesty." "I can't keep staying inside this palace." "Allow me to leave the palace." "You can't." "The rebels are marching here." "Even if you can break through them and reach their encampment, you will not be able to rescue His Majesty." "If you say something can't be done, you're giving up from the start." "Give me your consent." "Should something terrible happen to His Majesty, as a long-time friend of his, I will not be able to look at the sky anymore." "Who is it?" "Daebo!" "Did you already forget it was His Majesty's benevolence that saved you?" "S..." "Spare my life." "Where are they keeping His Majesty?" "Security there is so strong you will not be able to approach it." "It is time you give up." "The tide is turning towards Baegeuk now." "And His Majesty will be moved to Buyeo tomorrow." "Drop your sword." "They're bringing me to Buyeo?" "!" "You should have let me perish." "Your Majesty." "You must not give up hope, until the very end." "The physician who taught me everything I know... showed me how to treat every and all wounds of the body, but he said he doesn't know how to treat wounds of the heart." "But now I'm starting to understand what it takes to cure that." "It's faith." "You must believe in your son, Sire." "His Highness will rescue you at all costs, and save our country." "Your Majesty." "Don't ever give up hope." "Your Majesty!" "Daebo!" "Nunim." "How are things proceeding?" "Baegeuk's troops surrounded the entire capital." "Some troops even entered the capital, and are guarding the entire place." " Then..." " By tomorrow, whatever Muhyul decides, it looks like they'll enter the palace." "What happened to His Majesty?" "He tried to take his life." "He's alive for now, but they're moving him to Buyeo... before hostilities begin." "Yeonhwa..." "Yeonhwa!" "Yeonhwa." "Your Highness." "Where is Mahwang?" "He was taken away by strange men." "Listen carefully to what I'm about to tell you." "You will now leave the capital, and head to Jolbon." "What?" "You must heed my words." "Leave immediately." "Your Highness!" "Don't worry." "If it's for your sake, I shall survive at all costs and meet you in Jolbon." "Your Highness!" "Prince Yeojin is back." "Yeojin." "Brother." "What happened?" "Her Majesty?" "!" "Yeojin..." "They're taking His Majesty to Buyeo." "I shall leave the palace and rescue His Majesty." "You can't." "Are you telling me to sit here while they take His Majesty to Buyeo?" "Your Highness." "All the people left inside the palace are here to protect you." "Should anything happen to you while you're outside, they would lose whatever hope to fight that's left in them." "Who would ever depend on someone who abandons his father?" "Even if it brings him to his demise, rescuing His Majesty is his duty, as his son and the Crown Prince." "Your Highness." "We can't even break through the gates with the men we have." "There is a way to escape, even without going through the gates." "Right!" "There is a way." "When the rebels start their offensive, don't wait for me, and use this way to escape." "After you rescue His Majesty, head to Jolbon." "You will find a way to contend with the rebels from there." "Yeojin." "It would be better for you to remain here." "No." "I wll come to help rescue His Majesty." "Let's go." "Your Highness." "Don't worry." "We shall rescue His Majesty at all costs, and I'll be waiting for you in Jolbon." "You must survive." "What happened?" "They said they will start the offensive tomorrow at dawn." "Then, I'll have to head for Gungnae Fortress right now." "Your Majesty." "Prince Dojin is asking you to remain here in Buyeo Fortress." "Instead, he's moving King Yuri and Princess Yeon here." "Yuri?" "!" "You fool!" "How could you even think of taking His Majesty to Buyeo?" "!" "Goguryeo is now a thing of the past, so I am no longer a subject of King Yuri." "Take them out!" "There might be people trying to rescue King Yuri." "Maintain a close guard on him." "Yes!" "How about we deploy the first two battalions here near the western gates?" "Your Excellency." "Ohhh... right." "Anything new from Muhyul?" "Nothing." "We'll have to slay him anyway." "It would be best to begin the offensive now." "Attacking a fortress is not as easy as you think." "Should we lose the first battle, it would offer Muhyul a chance to retaliate." "So I shall infiltrate first, when it gets dark." "You march towards the palace right after." "Fine, we shall do it this way." "It's an arrow whistle." "Your Majesty!" "Your Majesty!" "Father!" "Your Majesty!" "You must escape!" "You came all the way here to rescue me." "How can I abandon you now?" "!" " Your Majesty!" " Your Majesty!" "Yeojin!" "Yeojin!" "Nunim!" "Nunim!" "Yeojin..." "Yeojin!" "Yeojin!" "Take Yeojin and leave now!" "Leave!" "Now!" "What is going on?" "The rebels have infiltrated the palace." "May you follow me." "His Highness?" "Where is His Highness?" "His Highness already left the palace to rescue His Majesty." "Now!" "You must leave!" "We will all be safe, so there is no need to be afraid." " Let us swiftly leave this place." " Yes." "Slay them all!" "Are you hurt?" "Your Highness!" "Your Highness." "Looks like the Supervisor, Chubalso and the Chamgun are still fighting inside." "You leave first." " Your Highness..." " Escort the Crown Princess now!" "Supervisor!" "Your Highness." "You must leave now." "Your Highness!" "Marvelous." "You turned my dream into reality!" "What happened to Muhyul?" "He escaped to Jolbon." "But we shall soon subjugate Jolbon, and I'll bring you King Yuri and Muhyul's heads." "All right." "Jolbon Fortress" "Your Majesty!" "Gungnae Fortress fell into rebel hands." "What happened to Muhyul?" "Why don't you have a seat?" "It now belongs to you." "Don't show such insolence." "We still don't know how the people will react to all this, so I shall not forgive anyone acting with imprudence." " Understood?" " Yes!" "You may all leave." "Your efforts in all this were superb." "Your meritorious service shan't be compared with those chieftains, who only battled with their tongues." "When our grand endeavor is complete," "I shall give you anything you wish for." "There is something you must do before that." "What is that?" "Escort King Daeso from the border to the capital." "That is not something we can decide upon so easily." "All the people's eyes are on me." "But, should they learn we were aided by Buyeo in this, you never know how they might react." "Whom you should dread the most is King Daeso." "Should he misunderstand your wishes," "King Daeso could use this tumult as an excuse to deploy troops here." "Also, you must regroup the troops, and slay King Yuri and Muhyul." "Their troops might be after us." "We must leave now." "Your Highness." "This can't be." "How can we abandon the capital, and flee to Jolbon?" "What is Jolbon?" "Haemyeong's spirit drenches that land." "We can't go back there after such a miserable defeat." "As for myself, not even living up to the title my brothers passed onto me, someone who ran away to save himself." "I can't forgive what I've done." "Your Highness." "You must bury all that deep within your heart, and go back." "The heavens are making you go through this ordeal for a reason." "You have His Majesty to protect, and people who have faith in you." "Let us swiftly go back to Jolbon, make all preparations, and win back our capital."

"Your Highness." "Open your eyes!" "You turned my dream into reality." "I will bring you Muhyul's head." "I no longer have any place in my heart to bury another son of mine, so what can I do?" "We must save Yeojin." "If he won't make it, His Majesty will be shocked behind repair." "When we have dealt with all this, I shall entrust you with dealing with Yeon." "I'm thinking of you as Buyeo's next Crown Prince." "Your Majesty!" " Blame me, Your Majesty." " I never abandoned my faith in you." "Do you really trust me?" "The heavens said you would cause my demise, but didn't you save me twice already?" "I shall never give up, so you must be strong." "Understood?" "Father..."
