"Prince Deok Heung is the only one who knows I have been with you." "I think that he and the Yuan envoy are working together on this." "Hey, how long does it take to change..." "So, if the Yuan envoy wants to take me, I just have to go with him?" "Even if I don't want to?" "Do you still not understand the rules of this world?" "Before this becomes a royal command, we need to run away." "So, we need to hurry." "I mean, are you going with me, to run away?" "The Wudalchi general?" "You leave first." "I will catch up to you after I speak with His Majesty." "But do you think the king will give you permission to go with me?" "I'm not going to ask his permission." "Then are you going to resign?" "Because of me?" "Right now, you are under the king's protection, so the envoy will have to ask His Majesty." "That's a decision I don't want to see him have to make." "First of all, if His Majesty agrees to that, I will have to obey and give you to them." "Do you understand now?" "More or less." "Why?" "I feel uneasy, that I'm letting you out of my sight." "Then follow me quickly, before I cause any trouble." "Dae Man." "Yes." "Take good care of her." "Yes." "It's a letter from the Yuan envoy." "Okay." "What does it say?" "What is in it?" "He's holding a high council meeting." "He's holding a high council meeting." "A high council meeting?" "A high council meeting?" "It says he has already gathered the ministers," "It says he has already gathered the ministers, and would Your Majesty please attend." "The Yuan envoy has gathered my ministers without my knowledge, and he asks me, the king, to attend?" "He orders me around?" "Are you on your way to see His Majesty?" "That's right." "He's been waiting to see you since yesterday, and thinks you're avoiding him." "My apologies." "Is it because you're upset about losing your Wudalchi boys?" "That's not it." "His Majesty has been blaming himself." "He keeps saying, "Choe Yeong cherished each of them so much."" ""Choe Yeong must have a great heartache."" "That sounds like him." "I won't keep you any longer." "Go see His Majesty." "Are you the one who ordered a nation's king to come to you?" "I am Sohn Yu, a special envoy from Yuan, Your Majesty." "I am Sohn Yu, a special envoy from Yuan, Your Majesty." "Very well." "What is it you have to say?" "The Yuan emperor instructed me to say this." "Over the past several years, Yuan has observed a parade of Goryeo kings, but they have all been incompetent."" ""I am no longer able to trust any Goryeo king."" "Your Majesty." "Do we have to listen to this type of talk?" "This is not even worth hearing, Your Majesty!" "And so?" "Your Majesty." "Your Majesty." "Did you recently lose the seal given to you by Yuan, and then fail to safeguard the palace properly?" "That happened." "Continue." "That is the justification." "Dethrone the incompetent king and abolish Goryeo's sovereignty is their wish." "They want to turn it into a province of Yuan." "That's impossible." "Then you will be fighting Yuan's soldiers." "Since I can't just sit here and hand over my country, of course we will fight." "Is this a fight... you can win?" "There are things in the world that must be fought for, even if you cannot win." "On the surface, those are impressive words." "But what have your people done to deserve going to war?" "Stop your deceptive talk and just get to the point." "On the brink of losing their country, what citizens would fear a thing like war?" "Although I am an official with Yuan, I am still a Goryeo person." "So?" "I came running here looking for one last way to keep Goryeo a sovereign nation." "You can't go in right now." "Why?" "That was the order." "No one is allowed to enter who wasn't summoned." "In my possession," "I have an order to promote Prince Deok Heung as the next Goryeo king." "However... there is one condition." "He would be Goryeo's last king." "He will abolish Goryeo himself, and remain to govern the province." "If it was my uncle, of course he would agree." "That's right." "You said... there was one way for Goryeo to remain sovereign." "There is." "First." "Reinstate the Yuan royal seal." "Second." "Capture the culprit who has clouded the king's mind." "The culprit?" "The woman called the Great Physician." "The Great Physician?" "Not only you, Your Majesty, but royals and your general were all bewitched by her." "Execute her." "What?" "You must execute her with your own hand." "So, I hope to report to Yuan that Your Majesty has removed the evildoer who threatened the palace, have regained your sanity and order has been restored." "She is an innocent woman." "Rumors about her have spread all the way to Yuan." "This is the best way." "Commanding General Choe Yeong requests an audience with Your Majesty." "What?" "He says he won't see you." "His Majesty... has something happened?" "He says he doesn't want to see you." "We've been given instructions to increase the Wudalchi force to 200 men." "In order to get that many people, we'll have to relax our requirements." "These past 7 years, the leader of the Wudalchi has really been you." "Well, some might say that's true." "That Yuan envoy." "Yes, General." "Have a few boys follow him." "To protect him... or to trail him?" "Never mind." "Did the king go to sleep late again last night?" "Yes." "He was looking at documents until almost dawn." "I think that the Yuan envoy is working with Prince Deok Heung, so..." "What should we do?" "Guard." "Guard him?" "Don't wait until something happens before you react, but try to prevent it." "I understand." "His Majesty is someone who will try to think too much." "When it gets late at night, do whatever you need to do to send him back to the Queen." "Yes." "And also..." "Yes." "Please take good care of him." "Yes." "What?" "This box has my personal belongings." "Do you want me to move it somewhere?" "See that you dispose of it." "Dispose of it?" "So then, since I was 9 or 10 years old," "I started living alone." "Alone?" "In the mountains?" "How could such a small child survive all alone?" "I did survive." "Oh, my goodness." "And then?" "Then when I was 13 or 14, that's when I met the general." "That was lucky." "Not exactly." "When I met the general, I bit him a lot." "I bit him on his arms and legs." "Why?" "When I ran away, he would chase after me." "When he caught me, I would bite him again and run away." "That went on for about 5 days and 5 nights." "Finally, I got too tired and fell asleep." "When I woke up, the general was cooking fish for me." "From then on, you have been close?" "Yes." "What?" "I can't hear his footsteps." "I wouldn't want to fight someone like that." "Why in the world doesn't His Majesty want to see me?" "If he did?" "I want to tell him that I have to leave the palace for a while, and if he won't give me permission..." "He has approved it." "He approves, so you should leave quickly." "Tell him to take the Great Physician and run somewhere far away, without looking back." "Please tell the Great Physician goodbye for me." "Officially, His Majesty has announced that he will hand over the Great Physician." "So, it has to look like you had already left before you could learn of his intention." "It's the only way to avoid being accused of defying a royal order." "Why does Yuan want the Great Physician?" "What can she do there?" "Let me ask you one thing." "You're planning to escort her to the Heaven's gate, right?" "That's right." "If you stayed here, and let Suribang's people take her there, wouldn't that work?" "There are only 20 days left until the full moon." "But, I should give up on everything, and part with her now?" "Everything you have worked so hard for until now, might be exchanged for those 20 days." "If you leave now, you might not ever be able to return." "Aunt." "What?" "For these past 7 years," "I have lived at this palace." "But in those 7 years, no matter how hard I think about it, I can't remember anything special about it." "I'm saying, there's nothing to exchange." "I'm going." "Don't get caught." "They're not planning to take her back to Yuan." "What the Yuan envoy wants, is her public execution." "If the Great Physician isn't here, what will happen to His Majesty?" "The Yuan envoy said..." "No, don't tell me." "I can't stay here anyway." "If I leave like this," "I have no right to return." "What good does it do someone like me" "to know of the king's business?" "What does he say?" "Has my nephew agreed to your conditions?" "Yes, he agreed to it all." "He has agreed to execute the Great Physician and reinstate the Yuan royal seal?" "Yes, he did." "That doesn't seem possible." "Did you send my stable groom on an errand for you?" "I heard you sent the woman called the Great Physician a letter." "I did send it." "Did you tell her to run?" "So that even if His Majesty wants to execute her, he won't be able to find her?" "Don't be like that." "She was once betrothed to me." "I couldn't bear to watch her be executed." "The person that left with her is called Choe Yeong, right?" "Was it your intention to separate him from His Majesty?" "He is useless." "Dae Man." "Take care of yourselves, okay?" "We're going." "Be careful." "As the commanding general of the king's bodyguards, how could he leave everything so easily?" "Our king had put his trust in such an unworthy man." "So, why don't we just put the imperial order to work and end this quickly?" "I think that this king, if you try to force him into anything, is ready to go to war." "He doesn't have the courage, brains, or talent for that." "I know him." "I am a bureaucrat." "Paying the smallest price, and finding the most efficient solution," "that is my duty." "I will make the least possible sacrifice in order to turn Goryeo into a Yuan province." "Should I have need for Prince Deok Heung, then I, myself, will request it." "The size is still the same and there's no blister." "I don't have a fever or any other symptoms." "So, you don't need to worry." "Once you get to the heavenly world, you can treat it immediately, right?" "Of course." "One exam and one shot is all it will take." "I'll trust you." "What are you doing?" "Here." "Walking... you're not very good, are you?" "I used to always ride in something." "Seriously, since I came to this world, I have had to walk so much." "Has there been anything you liked, since coming here?" "Let's see..." "Nothing?" "Not even one thing?" "Oh, there is." "What?" "Say that again." "What?" "That. "What?" "What is this?" "What are you doing?"" "I am going to set up army provision facilities." "Contact each precinct and gather all military provisions from there." "In addition, I will promote Hogun General Ahn Jae to Dosun General." "In addition, I will promote Hogun General Ahn Jae to Dosun General." "He will have the power to control all armies in a crisis." "Prepare for combat as soon as possible." "He will have the power to control all armies in a crisis." "Prepare for combat as soon as possible." "Your Majesty." "What?" "I wish to inform you, both the Yangye and Ahnju commanders would recommend Commanding General Choe Yeong." "Choe Yeong, during the last war, commanded the royal armies." "In battles large and small, he has never lost." "The royal army will follow Choe Yeong." "Therefore..." "I have appointed you... to be in charge, Commanding General Ahn Jae." "I accept your order." "Is there any new intelligence regarding Yuan?" "I have heard that the rebellion by the red turbans has become much worse." "But, Your Majesty, do you really want to wage war?" "Allow me to go to Yuan and meet with some people." "Our first goal is to show them they can't declare war on us whenever it pleases them." "If they want to claim our land, they will have to spill their blood for it." "I want to show them that." "What do you think, General?" "They ran away, you say?" "Yes." "My betrothed and the person who stole her, are right now heading toward the village near the border." "Why is my Great Physician with him?" "I also just found out about it." "I thought you would like to know, so I came over here personally." "You can take your Great Physician, and I will take that royal seal you have." "How did you just find out about that?" "If you didn't let her go, then how is she... my Great Physician who should have been in the palace, with that man?" "In my house is where the Great Physician should be." "Look, wait a minute." "I have something else to tell you." "I have a secret way of bringing her back." "You bastard and your secret plans..." "I'm sick of them." "Quickly, we have to move him." "Don't put your hand on him." "His anger is causing an overload." "Hurry and do something!" "I have to go... find the Great Physician." "We will get her back for you." "Yang Sang." "Yes?" "Put up their posters on every street." "Tell every assassin and bandit gang, even the hunters." "Whoever brings the Great Physician back alive will receive 1000 nyang." "However, the one with her, Choe Yeong, will have to be killed." "There's no time." "No time." "Let's go." "Give us two bowls of food." "Okay." "Let's have a drink, too." "That's alcohol, right?" "Bring us some of that too." "There's a bar in Heaven that looks a lot like this one." "They have really great makgeoli there." "(makgeoli - rice wine)" "Here." "Cheers, General." "You're not going to drink?" "Come to think of it, this is the first time we've had a drink together, right?" "Yes." "You don't like to drink?" "Not really." "Why?" "Lady." "When I say "now", you need to duck." "Duck?" "Now." "Are you okay?" "This..." "Is this us?" "Then, is this like a wanted poster?" "Something like that." "The reward for you is very high." "This is what I look like?" "That's terrible." "With such a high reward being offered, it's going to make our road more difficult." "So..." "Do I look like this?" "Does this look like him?" "I was just about to retire." "Honest." "I really was just about to get up." "Okay, now please tell me." "What is today's problem?" "Today's?" "There's a new one appearing every day." "I can't hear all of them at once, so just tell me what today's problem is." "I'll listen, we'll think it over, and then stay up all night together." "This is today's problem." "In order to keep Goryeo's independence, I need to do something." "Use the son-in-law royal seal from Yuan and execute the Great Physician." "However, right now, I don't have the Great Physician nor the Yuan royal seal." "Would the royal envoy bring their army if you don't?" "If I don't hand over this nation and agree to become a provincial governor, it's very possible." "Then, do you intend to fight with them?" "That's what I don't know." "And because I don't know, I can't sleep." "Wife." "Yes, Your Majesty." "If I were... a regular citizen and received an order to fight for my country..." "My Queen, if you were that citizen's wife, what would you do?" "I..." "I would..." "Wife." "What's wrong?" "Wife." "Your attention!" "Wife." "The Queen is not well." "What's wrong with her?" "Wife." "Do Chi, that person... my Queen..." "Even though it's very early and there was some minor bleeding, I know exactly what it is." "Her Highness, the Queen, is pregnant." "Congratulations." "Congratulations, Your Majesty." "However, her pulse is weak, so she needs to be very careful." "Of course." "She will be." "Can I see her now?" "Of course." "Congratulations, Your Majesty." "Are you okay?" "Yes." "Do you have any pain?" "I don't." "How was I blessed to meet someone like you?" "My Queen." "Thank you." "I am so grateful for you." "I thought some people might be targeting us tonight." "Just go back to sleep now and don't worry." "What?" "Over there." "The palace is in that direction, right?" "Last night before I went to sleep," "I saw you keep looking in that direction." "Go back to sleep." "Your eyes are barely open." "You are worried, right?" "About your king?" "Then, let's do it like this." "The village where I first arrived... the one nearest to the Heaven's gate." "Just take me that far and then go back." "I'll give you a break, how's that?" "I can't go back." "Why?" "As a Wudalchi general, I wouldn't put up with a Wudalchi like me." "I'd have to throw him out." "What kind of Wudalchi are you?" "When a warrior hesitates while wielding his sword, he dies." "A warrior who hesitates cannot protect the king." "In your whole life, have you ever lived a day doing things you wanted to do, and not acting on the orders or requests of others?" "Have you ever spent a day doing just what you wanted to do?" "Yesterday... and today." "This time around, these men will need to see blood." "Please stay here." "That Prince Deok Heung and the Yuan envoy, they are working together in this." "That place where Prince Deok Heung is staying is called..." "The official guest quarters." "Prince Deok Heung..." "He went to Jo Dong Man's house today." "He also went there yesterday." "You know that Yang Sang, Lord Deok Seong's right-hand man?" "Today, he bought a lot of herbal medicines again." "What are those medicines used for?" "I don't know." "How is it that you always only find out half of what we need to know?" "So now he's staying in the guest quarters with the Yuan envoy?" "Yes." "They have even prepared Prince Deok Heung his own room." "So, he already knew about it." "What?" "The Yuan envoy." "He already knew I didn't have the royal seal or the Great Physician." "He offered me those two conditions, even though he knew." "Do Chi." "Yes, Your Majesty." "Find out what Suribang needs and reward them with that." "Yes, I will do that." "Deputy General." "Yes." "Pass this on to Suribang." "I want to know how things are between Prince Deok Heung and Prince of Buwon." "If it has turned sour, I want to know the reason." "I understand." "So, you have come to confirm things?" "It's been a day since I told you the conditions." "Your Majesty, the procedure is very simple." "You just need to sign an order with the Yuan royal seal, stating that you will execute the Great Physician." "And then do it." "With that, I will appeal to the Emperor to leave Goryeo alone for now." "Why are you using such dizzying tactics?" "Tactics?" "You were already sent here to abolish Goryeo, weren't you?" "That is what I was ordered to do." "Then just stick to your orders, and don't fog the issue with demands for seals and doctors." "In that case, I will fight back to the best of my ability." "Whether that position is to be the Goryeo king, or the governor of a province, there are two possible candidates." "The one in front of me prepares for war in the name of Goryeo, while the other one prizes, above all else... his own safety." "So, now you are trying to choose one of them?" "Was that the mission you were given by Yuan?" "That is the mission I was given, the ability to choose a king." "At least, that's how I see it." "Then what shall I do?" "To win your favor, shall I dance for you?" "The royal seal and the Great Physician." "Those two things." "If you don't have them ready yet," "I'll come back tomorrow." "Then." "Ah, I won't wait for more than 3 days." "We need that woman called the Great Physician." "That way, the king's decision will be easier." "Find the Great Physician and bring her here." "Get rid of the guy that's with her." "I've heard he is a skillful warrior, but he won't be able to fight well since he has that woman with him." "You should have no problem with him." "This is from the Yuan envoy." "I was told to give this to you in person." "He says it's from your mother." "Why doesn't this make any sense to you?" "You taught me how to ride a horse and use a knife." "I just want to repay you by teaching you something." "Never mind." "Just hold on." "These are magic words from Heaven." "This is a chant of encouragement that's widely used in Heaven." "So, you should learn it well." "General, you can use it, and then teach the other Wudalchi." "Your explanation is too long." "Fine." "Then make a fist like this." "Try it." "Aja!" "(fighting!" ")" "Whenever you feel depressed or feel like sleeping all day," "Just go like this, Aja!" "Do it one time." "Aja!" "Is this so difficult?" "It's only two letters." "Hey." "General." "Stop right there!" "When you make a promise in this world, people only do it with words." ""I'm a Goryeo warrior and my oath means my life."" "From now on, you don't have to say those words." "Make a pinky swear and stamp it." "Like this." "Like this, make a promise and then stamp it." "There, that's how you promise." "But, if you feel this is not strong enough," "Like this, you make a copy." "If you promise this way, you don't have to risk your life." "I understand." "And there's one more." "High Five." "Like this." "Just try it." "Even if I beg you so pitifully like this?" "For this one, you don't need to say anything." "It's just given from heart to heart." ""Look here." "Be strong." "We can do this."" "Be sure to teach it to the king, okay?" "What are you thinking?" "What the heck is this person thinking right now?" "Don't walk behind me." "It's easier for me to protect you in front." "I still have more to teach you." "That's enough." "Just one more." "One more." "Stop." "Are they here to catch us?" "No." "They're soldiers." "It looks like their armor is new, so they must be new recruits." "Go and find out what's going on." "I'll be over at the medicine shop." "Why?" "Aren't you feeling well?" "I just want to buy some herbs in case there's an emergency." "Pick me up over there." "Hello." "I need some honeycomb." "Do you have it here?" "Just a moment." "This rash is because the toxin is being discharged from the body." "That's why it's itchy." "It looks like allergy..." "Are they recruiting soldiers?" "They said the country is signing up men to be soldiers." "For this, you need to be quick." "After that recent pardon, a lot of slaves were let loose." "All those slaves are signing up for this." "They give you clothes, food, and your own sword." "Now they're not slaves anymore, they're soldiers." "Soldiers that are protecting their country!" "Has anything happened at the border recently?" "If you want to be a soldier, then get in line." "Where's your superior?" "What?" "I said, where is your superior?" "You punk." "Who do you think you are?" "Who are you?" "I heard the name of this poison is bichung." "Have you heard of it?" "Bichung poison has no antidote." "There really isn't." "That damn jerk." "Just wait until I see you again." "However, I am able to help ease the pain with acupuncture." "Acupuncture will reduce the pain?" "Yes, it's possible." "Can you show me how?" "There's someone I don't want to show that I'm in pain." "Yes." "Since you're pretty, I will teach you." "Hey." "That woman is mine." "What?" "What?" "Wife." "I can do this." "Please sit down." "What?" "Nothing." "I'll be back soon." "It seems like they need me there to help settle things." "You don't need to hurry." "Why?" "Why should I not hurry?" "I'm planning to go to Bo Jae Temple." "I'm going to pray for Your Majesty and our baby's well being." "Then, do you want me to go there with you when I'm done?" "To Bo Jae Temple?" "I can go by myself." "If we both pray together, doesn't it double the effectiveness?" "Your Majesty, you should attend to your work first." "Others will laugh at you." "Then we'll do it like that." "That you came all the way to my humble home, I am honored." "I heard you were recently unwell." "Are you all right?" "A ridiculous rumor." "I'm fine, and I'm healthy." "Please sit down." "I'm surprised you came here personally, to my house where I have hundreds of my own soldiers." "We have something to give and take from each other." "Is there something I have that you want?" "The Yuan royal seal." "Do you have it?" "Recently, you gave my uncle a royal order using that seal." "I heard that document was brought by you, Prince of Buwon, stamped with that very seal." "I can't really acknowledge it or deny it." "Would you give it to me?" "You mean the king went to Gi Cheul's house?" "I'm sure they're probably meeting right now." "It's the royal seal." "He went to get the royal seal." "Do you think the Prince of Buwon will hand it over?" "He will." "Because that fellow is half-mad already." "There's only one thing he sees, and he won't care about the seal." "If I give that to you, what will I get in return?" "How would it be if I release you?" "I heard there was someplace you wanted to go." "But, here you are locked up like this." "I'll give it to you." " Yang Sang." " Yes." "Where's the royal seal?" "Bring it here, hurry." "Quickly." "Yes." "Your Majesty." "Yes." "Please don't mock me." "I'm sorry." "There is nothing I have not had." "I have always gotten everything I have wanted." "If I had wanted it, I would have been king." "A Gi Dynasty." "What would have been difficult about that?" "That is true." "But somehow, there has always been a blackened hole in my heart." "It would not fill up." "Then I met the woman from Heaven." "She said there is a world other than this one." "Whether that is paradise or hell, I don't care." "I must go there." "If you go there, do you think the hole in your heart will be filled?" "Won't it?" "People always expect me to do too much." "All I ever wanted was just to live my life reading books." "But they just won't leave me alone." "What?" "I didn't want to have to go this far, but people keep pushing me into a corner, so what can I do?" "The wind is very cold today." "I told you to go another day, but why do you have to be so stubborn?" "My heart is feeling uneasy." "I feel like I need to do something, or I'll keep feeling anxious." "I understand." "I'll go with you so we can make a quick trip." "Just in case, I'll have Dr. Jang come along." "Court Lady Choe." "Yes, Your Highness." "I would like to go there quietly." "From now on, no one is allowed in, except for the monks we know." "No one else." "Yes." "I wonder if it will be a little princess or a little prince." "But since they are both so beautiful, how lovely their child will be." "Your Highness!" "Your Highness!" "I came after receiving a letter from the envoy." "I am Emperor Wui's daughter, Borjigin Budashiri." "Where's the person who claims to have my mother's message?" "Stay here and don't move." "I don't even want to." "Oh no." "Lady, what's wrong?" "Hey, what happened?" "Did someone come here?" "No." "Then why do you look like that?" "Are you not feeling well?" "Please... just hold me." "What happened?" "The one to read the letter I hide here should be you, Eun Su, right?" "And if you're reading this, it means that he's with you." "Remember every moment of that day." "The honest eyes he looks at you with, his warm chest." "Yes, Eun Su, I am the future you." "=Next Episode Preview=" "I must go." "I will find her myself!" "Her body is weak and the weather is so cold." "Where is she and doing what?" "No news about the General?" "What if, our King and Queen... something were to happen to them." "What exactly have you heard?" "Please begin." "I have a request for Your Majesty." "Are you prepared?"
