"Brought to you by WITH S2 Written In The Heavens Subbing Squad" "Your Majesty, did you just say marriage?" "Yes, that's exactly what I said." "But Your Majesty, Prince Yeon Ing is still much too young..." "Episode 56" "No, he is old enough to marry." "And as you know," "Once any Prince other than the Crown Prince marries," "He must leave the Palace." "Your Majesty, you mean..." "you're saying..." "Yes, I'm telling you that..." "Prince Yeon Ing is old enough to marry and leave the Palace." "Your Majesty...!" " What?" "Prince Yeon Ing's marriage?" " Yes, Your Majesty." "The Queen has sent word that..." "She will soon come here to speak to you regarding that issue." "But this is so sudden...!" "Your Majesty, are you doing this because of the rumors in the Palace?" "The rumors that say Prince Yeon Ing is after the Crown Prince's position." "I didn't expect you to refer to it yourself." "How can you talk about it so casually?" "Are you able to because you have His Majesty's favor?" " Your Majesty!" " Yes, that is exactly why." "How dare a mere Consort use her influence with the King to act like she's Queen and threaten the Crown Prince?" "As long as I am Queen, I will not tolerate that." "Please pardon me, Your Majesty, but let me tell you something." "The Palace is a place where many unfounded rumors are created and grown." "As Head of the Inner Court," "If you are not able to discern what is true and false," "Not only the Inner Court," "But the government and the nation will be destabilized." " Please don't forget that." " What?" " You dare to lecture me?" " Yes, Your Majesty, I am." "Because that is my duty to you as an Elder of the Inner Court." "Consort Sook!" "Your Majesty..." "How do you feel now, Your Highness?" "Do you have regrets now?" "Is Her Majesty the new nest you've made for yourself?" "But beware, Minister." "A tree with weak roots will topple over at the slightest breeze." "Yes, that may be true," "But I don't think the breeze is headed in my direction." "Don't you agree?" "My Queen, I know what your intentions are," " But Prince Yeon Ing is still young." " No, that is not so, Your Majesty." "You were married at his age too." "But that was..." "Your Majesty, royal marriages are the Queen's responsibility." "If you stop me from doing what is my duty," "My standing will fall and I will not be able to head the Inner Court." "This is to banish all of the rumors in the Palace and strengthen the Crown Prince's position." "Please give me your understanding, Your Majesty." "So the marriage is going to happen, My Lady?" "This follows custom, so His Majesty cannot stop it." "But Prince Yeon Ing's life may be threatened again once he's living outside the Palace." " I need to speak to Her Highness." " I'll go with you, My Lady." "I knew this was going to happen." "I knew she's going to try and devour Consort Sook." "Be careful!" "Someone may hear you." "But I'm so upset." "Does she even know how she became Queen?" "It's because Consort Sook declined to be Queen." "She's not even grateful." "Eun-Geum is right." "I'm so angry too." "We just washed our hands of Consort Hui," "But now this new fox of a woman shows up and...!" "I'm so frustrated!" "What's going to happen now?" "Is the Prince really going to be sent out?" "I don't know!" "Don't ask me!" " Lady Bong!" " Sir!" "Where is Her Highness?" "She's inside." "They're all waiting for you." "Your Highness, she's determined to send the Prince away." "How could she do this?" "The issue is that we have no excuse to stop her." "Your Highness, what if you speak to His Majesty..." "No, I won't do that." "If His Majesty steps forward to protect the Prince," "The rumors will only get worse." "But we can't just let the Prince leave the Palace." "Yes, Your Highness." "It's not over just because Consort Hui is dead." "The Soron ministers who oppose the Prince will want his life sooner or later." "Fortunately, the Queen is doing the work for us." "Yes, you're doing well guiding the Queen." "I am only doing my duty, Your Excellency." "The South and Soron factions must work together now." "The Crown Prince may be weak," "But there are many others who can fill his position." "We are the ones who choose the King." "Yes, but we will never choose a King with lowborn blood." "If needed, we will have to pick up our swords." "I like it that we understand each other so easily." " Get him!" " Yes, sir!" "My Lord, are you all right?" " Did you get him?" " He's hidden himself." "What?" "Go and meet the Noron members and try to gain their support." "Yes, sir." " We have no time to delay." " Yes, sir." "Inspector Cha, why are you so deep in thought?" "My Lord, Consort Sook turned away the position of Queen for everyone's sake." "How can they do this to her?" "It's because the Prince's existence threatens them." "In the Palace, if one does not kill, then one is killed." "I doubt that is the only reason." "Consort Sook is of lowborn origin." "It's because the Prince has lowborn blood." "That is what they fear and dislike." "They cannot accept a King with lowborn blood," "So they want to cut him down by the roots." "If the Prince is sent out of the Palace, he will not survive for long." "I will never allow that to happen." " Your Highness..." " What is Prince Yeon Ing doing?" "You mean I'm getting married?" "When?" "The candidate selection will be announced tomorrow." "What?" "What will happen to me after that?" "Will I have to leave the Palace?" "All Princes who are married must leave." "I have to live by myself without my mother?" "Your Highness..." "Mother!" "Mother, I don't want to get married." "I don't want to leave the Palace." "I want to be near you." "I want to live with Father, Older Brother and you." "Yes, don't worry, Geum." "You will not be sent away from the Palace." " I won't allow that to happen." " Mother..." "Customs... customs!" "Who cares about that?" "Why can't I even protect my own young son?" "Your Majesty..." "Your Majesty, Consort Sook is here." "Dong Yi!" " I'll find a way out of this, so you..." " No, Your Majesty, don't do that." "I came here because I was afraid you would try to stop the marriage." "Dong Yi!" "If you do this, you will pour oil on the rumors." "More importantly, the Crown Prince will be hurt again because of this show of favoritism." "As I mentioned before," "Your biggest concern must be the Crown Prince." "You must not hurt him again and reopen old wounds." "Please leave it to me, Your Majesty." "I'll try to solve the problem." "But how?" "I'm wise to the ways of the Palace now." "Did you forget that I was once Poongsan?" "Dong Yi!" "I will not let Prince Yeon Ing leave the Palace." "I will protect him, Your Majesty." "Lady Bong, go and summon Lady Jung." "I need to see records from the Office of Investigations." "Yes, Your Highness." "You mean the candidate appointment..." "Yes, that's right." "I'm going to cause an incident that has never occurred in the Palace before." " Your Highness..." " But Your Highness, that is..." "I've been planning this for a long time." "So please do as I wish." "Of course, no one can guarantee that Prince Yeon Ing will be protected if I do this." "But right now, this is the best option." "This is the candidate appointment decree for Prince Yeon Ing's marriage." " Carry it out quickly." " Yes, Your Majesty." " Your Highness." " Wait a moment!" "What?" "You want to choose the candidate yourself?" "Yes, Your Majesty." "We will proceed with the marriage as you wish," "But please allow me to choose my son's wife." "Your impudence surprises me." "It is the Queen's right to decide all marriages within the Royal Family." "Now you want to take over that right?" " You're wrong, Your Majesty" " What?" "This is the record of all the marriages within the Royal Family kept by the Office of Investigations." "If you read through it," "The marriages of Princes except for the Crown Prince were often determined by their mothers rather than the Queen." "Since you want to carry out Prince Yeon Ing's marriage in accordance with custom," "I will obey." "If so, then don't you agree you should follow the customs of the Palace too?" " You mean Her Majesty agreed to it?" " I don't think she had a choice." "Consort Sook's plan must be to align herself with someone who would support her." "But don't worry, Councilor." "All we need to do is send Prince Yeon Ing away from the Palace." "The Prince is getting married!" "What's this?" "Did something happen again?" "Father!" "I think Prince Yeon Ing is getting married." "Really?" "Move... move!" "Why is he taking so long?" "I'm going to go crazy!" "You impatient boy...!" "You mean you want us to nominate ourselves as candidates too?" "Yes, this is one way our family's honor can be resurrected." " But we don't have a daughter." " We have our nephew's daughter." "Find out a way we can adopt her as our own." "Then what are you going to do?" "We're going to go grasp the kite string." "What?" "Kite string?" "Father, we're late!" "Let's go!" "All right." "You're like me when it comes to being impatient." "My Lord, be careful the kite string doesn't get cut!" "You're working hard, I see!" "The Bureau of Music certainly has changed a lot." "I know." "The gisaengs aren't as pretty as before." "Yes, we had it right when we were here." "Those idiots ruined it." "Director!" "Yes, I was the ex-Director..." "Aren't those two...?" "Why are they here?" " Long time no see, Director Hwang!" " Hello Young-Dal!" "What brings you to the Bureau of Music?" "As a matter of fact..." "I came to give you an order." "An order?" "The two of you are still close with Consort Sook, right?" "Of course we're still close." "She considers us her family." "Why do you ask?" "Go to Her Highness and tell her we're submitting a candidate too." "Ask her to give us her favor." "What?" "You mean your family wants to become the Prince's in-laws?" "Yes, our family is certainly up to standard." "And we have the perfect candidate." " Stop spouting nonsense and leave!" " Non...nonsense?" "I've never heard anything so ridiculous." "Here, take these trespassers out!" "Trespassers?" "Are you crazy?" "Do you know how I am?" "Who?" "Who are you?" "You're an unemployed vagrant!" "But I used to be the Director here." "Yes, you used to be, but now I'm the Director!" " Are you asking for it?" " Father...!" "That's right." "You used to be our superiors back then, but not anymore!" "We... we're so used to being superiors that..." "Tell that to the dog." "Stop talking nonsense and get out." "Someone get these trespassers out!" " If they don't go, beat them!" " Yes, sir!" "Let go of me!" "I won't leave!" "Director Hwang, please!" "We beg you!" " Let go!" " Director!" "Those fools." "Let's go!" "Constitutional Minister Cha Tae-Woon and Third Minister of Rites Gu Min-Ho are from solid families." "Both their daughters are said to be of good character." "Are these the best candidates from the Noron faction?" "Your Highness?" "I heard the Noron ministers have staked their lives on Prince Yeon Ing." "But I must have been mistaken." "Are you unsatisfied with these families?" "Yes, Minister, I am." "I am not satisfied at all." "I had expected the Noron ministers to nominate candidates of finer families for Prince Yeon Ing's sake." "But I am very disappointed." "Is that really true?" "She rejected the Constitutional Minister and Third Minister of Rites?" "Yes, I was completely humiliated." "She wants a stronger supporter for the future of the Prince." "To be honest, those families are more than sufficient for the Prince." "Anything better would cause needless talk and problems." "I know." "Your Highness, those candidates are all from the finest of families." "Are you really going to reject them?" "Yes, because these families will not be powerful enough to protect the Prince." "I told you I was going to play politics, Lady Bong." "The family of the Prince's wife will play an important in the future of Prince Yeon Ing." "I want someone who can be of great help and support to be with the Prince." "Where are we, Master?" "This is the temple that keeps my master's memorial." " Master's master?" " Yes." "I brought you here since you seemed down." "Please enjoy the scenery while I pay my respects." "That must be very bitter." "You seem to be from a noble family." "Why are you eating that?" "You mean this, my man?" "I'm trying not to forget the bitter taste." "He said this bitterness was the people's tears." "What?" " Here we meet!" " Master!" "Master!" "Are you disappointed in me?" "Because I told all of you to turn your backs on politics but didn't follow my own advice?" "No, Master, I can see from the Prince why you did so." "[Suh Jong-Jae]" "So you can see his character too." "It seemed that his impending marriage was causing some noise." "You must be worried." "Yes, when he leaves the Palace, his safety will be at risk." "I fear that this will cause the loss of a great character." "So once the candidate is selected and the marriage is completed," "Prince Yeon Ing will have to leave the Palace." "Yes, so you have nothing to worry about anymore, Crown Prince." "I'm on your side." "I will protect you, so you must have faith in me." "I have heard that you've been refusing food often lately." "You must not do this." "Do you hear me, my son?" "Yes, Your Majesty." "Is this the returned table from the East Palace?" "This must not have been to his liking either." "Your Highness, you must be so worried about the Prince." "But why do you bother with the Crown Prince too?" " What has he done to deserve this?" " Lady Bong!" "Your Highness!" "I told you I didn't want to be disturbed!" " Your Highness..." " What is it?" "This is seaweed porridge and plum." "Plum is good for you." "Please have some, Your Highness." "Plum boosts appetite and restores lost energy." "Please have some." "Why are you doing this?" "To you, I am someone who should disappear." "So why are you and Prince Yeon Ing both doing this?" "Your Highness..." "Please leave and tell Prince Yeon Ing not to seek me out." "I know he greets me everyday in hiding." "It's burdensome and upsetting." " I do not wish to see Prince Yeon Ing." " Your Highness." "I know that's not true." "I know you're pushing him away because of your pain." "But inside your heart, you worry and feel badly for him." "Prince Yeon Ing feels the same way about you." "Your Highness, they tell me I have to leave the Palace soon." "They tell me I can't live here with you anymore." "I'm not your brother!" "I am an enemy that you must defeat." "And you too are my enemy that I must crush." "I really like you, Older Brother." "As much as Mother and Father..." "I really like you." "This is the last candidate nomination, Your Highness." "Consort Sook knows the ways of the Palace." "She will not be able to resist for long." "Once a suitable candidate is identified," "Please make sure everything proceeds quickly." "Yes, that was my plan." "It is imperative that Prince Yeon Ing leaves the Palace." " There is no one suitable here." " Your Highness?" "None of these nominations are satisfactory as Prince Yeon Ing's wife." "Then shall we send out another request for..." "No, I will select the bride myself." "Your Highness?" "To be honest, there was someone I had my eye on," "But she was not nominated." "I will go to her myself and request her hand." "What?" "You mean Consort Sook has left the Palace?" "Yes, Your Majesty." "Who is this girl she has her eye on?" "Well..." "I heard that she was headed to the residence of ex-Senior Commissioner Park Dong-Ju." "What?" "Park Dong-Ju?" "Senior Commissioner Park Dong-Ju?" "Is she crazy?" "His family is one of the noblest families in the nation." "His influence amongst the Confucian scholars is immense." "He was the leader of the Soron faction." "How dare she pursue him!" "Does she think we'll allow that?" " Let's go." " Yes, Your Highness." "Consort Sook, stop right there!" "Your Majesty." "Is this why you asked to choose the candidate?" "You wanted to ally yourself with one of the noblest families?" " Do you think I'll allow this marriage?" " Your Majesty." "You gave me full rights over Prince Yeon Ing's marriage." "Isn't this something that should be discussed once the candidate has been selected?" " Consort Sook!" " Please forgive me, Your Majesty." "I have an appointment." "How dare she...?" "Excellency, Consort Sook has arrived." "Has she?" "Your Highness!" "I'm going to visit with Emissary Ban Dong." "He's close with Lord Park and will stop the marriage." " Let's hurry." " Yes, My Lord." "It appears that Consort Sook is no different than everyone else." "She's trying to ally herself with power." "But she'll be able to accomplish neither the marriage nor keeping the Prince in the Palace." "No, My Lord." "Her Highness is sure to obtain both of those things." "And you'll end up helping her do it." "What?" " My Lord, I have bad news!" " What is it?" "What happened?" "It's the same man." "He's warning me." "My Lord?" "Who is it?" "Who is doing this?" "Please forgive me for this sudden visit." "Not at all, Your Highness." "I am so honored." "To be honest, our family wished to nominate a candidate as well." "But we decided against it as our daughter was not suitable." "We are deeply honored that you would come here personally." "I'm sorry, Excellency, but there seems to be a misunderstanding." " Misunderstanding?" " I am not here to see you." "Your Highness?" "Sir!" "This is this month's pay." "There is an overpayment of five yang." "His Excellency added it to thank you for taking care of his sons." "It's all right." "I will only take what was agreed upon." "Tell the boys to study harder." "Sir..." "You should have taken the money." "How particular you are!" "Master!" "What brings you here?" " You mean the scholar Suh Jong-Jae?" " Yes." " I heard he teaches your children." " So you mean..." "Yes, I want his daughter as the Prince's wife." "What?" "Suh Jong-Jae?" "Who is he?" "I've never heard of him before." "Yes, Your Majesty." "He is only a licentiate." "What?" "A licentiate?" "He is a licentiate who passed the civil exams," "But had no interest in politics, so he teaches instead." "Then why a man like that?" "Are you certain this was Consort Sook's choice?" "Yes, Her Highness has her eye set on his daughter even before the Queen suggested marriage." "Goodness!" "Pardon me for my humble place." "No, please forgive me for intruding on you so suddenly." " The reason I wished to see you is..." " I heard everything from Master." "It is a great honor that you have come here," "But our family is not worthy to marry into the Royal Family." "There are many other powerful and noble families who can help support the Prince's future." "I have no interest in politics, and have no experience either." " That is why I chose you." " Your Highness..." "Did you mention powerful families?" "Yes, I agree that Prince Yeon Ing needs to belong to one." "But I do not refer to same power that the world does." "Power that does not take away but shares with others." "Power that knows right and wrong." "And most important, power to know that everything we have is meaningless." "I want to give that kind of power to Prince Yeon Ing." "I want to show him that that kind of power can be victorious too." "I want Prince Yeon Ing to dream of a world like that." "And I would like someone like you to be with him to ensure that it doesn't end as just a dream." "Your Highness." " Your name is Hae-In?" " Yes, Your Highness." "Yes, I can see that your eyes are pure and bright." "Don't be so stubborn." "I'm your master and I couldn't stand against her." "Master..." "You mean you knew about this, and you didn't stop her?" "I'm sorry for not informing you earlier." "You're mad!" "You've all lost your minds!" " Your Excellency..." " A mere licentiate?" "A licentiate when she needs a powerful family to back her?" "How will she protect the Prince like this?" "He's going to be sent away from the Palace." "What is she going to do?" "That may not happen, Your Excellency." "What?" "Suh Dong-Jae may be able to protect the Prince after all." "What do you mean by that?" "He can protect the Prince?" "When I first came here after what you told me," "I never knew I would use it in this way." "Yes, that day when I told you the story," "You laughed as if I had made a joke." "I really hope this will protect the Prince." "A licentiate?" "What a perfect match for a lowborn consort." "We were worried for nothing." "Now all we have to do is wait for the wedding." "I don't know if she did it because she knew her place or because she's a fool." "But now we can sleep in peace." "Your Excellency!" "Senior Commissioner Park Dong-Ju is here to see you." "Indeed?" "Commissioner, I wanted to speak to you..." "Right Councilor, did you hear?" " Do you know who Suh Jong-Jae is?" " What?" "What do you mean by that?" "So you don't know." "You shouldn't be so relaxed!" " Let's go!" " Yes, sir!" "What should we do, Your Excellency." "What is this problem you mentioned?" "We've been given the turnaround by Consort Sook." "What?" "Suh Jong-Jae's house..." "He lives in a place with royal energy." "What?" "Royal energy?" "So this is the house that the Prince will live in?" "Get away!" "Is this the house she wanted over ours?" "Father, Consort Sook must have finally lost her mind." "Don't say that." "This house has royal energy." "Who are you?" "How dare you interrupt?" "Wait, what did he just say?" "Royal energy?" "Yes, this place used to be the home of King Seongjong's father, ...Prince Successor Uigyeong." "And that's not all!" "King Seonjo used to study in this house." "Both King Seongjong and King Seonjo?" "That's what we said!" "Look at this tree!" "This is a 250 year old tree that Prince Successor Uigyeong planted himself." "Is that true?" "Wait, both of those Kings were Princes who were not supposed to ascend to the throne." "Yes, that's right!" "Wait, does that mean that when the Prince comes here," "He'll return to the Palace as King?" "Of course!" "That's preposterous!" "Are you allowing this superstition to scare you?" "We're worried about what the people will think." "Your Excellency!" "The people are powerful and that is why we fear them." "What will happen if they come to associate Prince Yeon Ing with the two kings?" "They will believe he will become King." "So now you want him to stay in the Palace?" " Because of what the people will think?" " He's right." "We cannot allow Prince Yeon Ing to stay in the Palace." "But what if he gains power when he's left the Palace?" "You must never underestimate the people." "Your Excellency, that is not going to happen." "How do you know that?" " Your Highness." " What is happening?" "As expected, the Soron ministers are in heated discussion." "I'm not sure that will stop them from pursuing the Prince's eviction from the Palace." "If this doesn't stop them, there will be no other way." "My Lord." "Talking about it all night won't solve anything." "I worked hard for this opportunity." "I won't give it up so easily." "Let's go." "The tree can always be axed down." "Run, My Lord!" " You're...!" " You should have heeded my warning." "You mean all this was...?" "Do you really think you'll get away with this?" "Your life is in my hands." "What is that?" "A man like you never has unblemished histories." "But you hid it so well that I had to work hard to find it." "Unlike your reputation as a man of honesty and integrity," "You were involved in corruption with Gyeongsang merchants." "And you did it completely in secret." "Listen carefully, Third War Minister." "I warned you three times to remember that..." "I can expose your lies and corruption at any time." "I also want you to know that I can take your life anytime." "But don't worry." "That won't be today." "There is something you need to take care of first." "I shall tell you what that is." " Your Highness!" " What happened?" "The ministers are gathering in the Great Hall to discuss the future of the Prince." " I hope things turn out well." " Me too!" "Inspector, where have you been?" "The Palace has been in chaos!" "Inspector Cha." "I heard the ministers have gathered in the Great Hall." "Yes, now we must watch how Soron reacts." "How nerve-wrecking!" "Why do these days happen so often?" "What do we do now, Your Excellency?" "It's best if we forget about this." " We must not upset the people." " But the problem is the South Faction." "As long as Third War Minister perseveres," "They will continue their stance." "Impudent bastard!" "How dare you threaten me?" "Your Majesty, the Prince is still very young." "His marriage and departure from the Palace can always take place at a later time." "But that is against custom!" "Once married, a Prince must leave the Palace." "I'm aware of that too." "But the Prince's life was threatened when he lived outside the Palace." "How can I send him out knowing that?" "Your Majesty, please remember why this custom exists." "It is for the sake of the Crown Prince." "Yes, Your Majesty!" "Please consider the Crown Prince!" "Your Majesty, there can be no exceptions." "Please hear our plea!" "Your Majesty, that is not always the case." "King Jungjong's second son, Prince Boksong, ...left the Palace two years after his marriage." "That means that it wouldn't be breaking the custom." "Third..." "Third War Minister!" "Your Majesty, it is dangerous for the Prince outside." "For the sake of the young Prince, it is right that he be allowed to stay." "What...?" "Is that true?" "The Third War Minister really said that?" "Yes, Your Highness." "Apparently there is nothing more important than reputation and one's life." "Am I wrong, My Lord?" "Yes, the two weapons in your hands did disturb me." "But you should strike me down quickly." "As you know, I am quite a talented man." "You mean I don't have to leave the Palace?" "I can stay after I'm married?" " Yes, that's right, Your Highness." " You're not lying to me, are you?" "How could I dare lie to you, Your Highness?" "Really?" "That's what they decided at the Great Hall?" "Yes, Your Highness." " Your Majesty, Consort Sook is here." " Escort her in." "Yes, Your Majesty." "Dong Yi!" "Your Majesty, I heard about what happened at the Great Hall." "What happened?" "How did you persuade them?" "I'll tell you everything later." "You're full of surprises!" "I'm so glad." "I was driving myself crazy because my hands were tied," "But now we can proceed happily with the wedding." "Your Majesty..." "This wedding is going to be grand!" "So don't try to stop me, do you hear?" "Yes, Your Majesty." "I'll take a step back this time." "All done." "Have a seat." "Chun Soo, this is all because of you." "Not at all, Your Highness." "How do you feel, Your Highness?" "Are you excited to be married?" "I'm not sure, Uncle." "Am I really getting married?" "Yes, Your Highness, you're going to be my elder because you're getting married before me." "What?" "I'm going to be your elder?" " Geum." " Yes, Mother." "What did I say the marriage represented?" "You said it was becoming a real adult," "And therefore my thoughts and heart must be deeper." "Yes, you must become more mature." "You will have to take care of someone, and be responsible for many others." "Yes, Mother." "Your Highness!" " Has Prince Yeon Ing fallen asleep?" " Yes, Ae-Jong had a hard time." "She said that the Prince kept talking about how his bride was pretty like you and wouldn't go to sleep." "Really?" "I really want time to pass quickly so that he'll be fifteen." "Then they'll consummate the marriage." "And I hope they have a pretty little girl like you." "What?" "That is so many years away!" "Did I move forward too fast?" "Yes, I don't want to be a grandmother so soon." "I know you'll be overjoyed!" "Yes, so that's what happened." "When I decided on Suh Jong-Jae's daughter," "I took it as an interesting tale." "But it put fear in the Soron ministers." "Of course it would." "They fear that above all else." "Thank you for keeping your promise, Your Majesty." "Thank you for allowing me to choose his bride and giving me control over everything." "It was a man's promise." "And as King, I will not let my promises go unfulfilled." "But it is still my opinion that the Prince needs a strong family to back him." "Your Majesty..." "I know what your will is," "But if we think about the path he must walk..." "He must be able to control the ministers." "What do you mean by the path he must walk, Your Majesty?" "Dong Yi, this incident came to a close." "But the Soron ministers will not let the Prince live." "They are both my precious children." "But to them," "The Princes are shields they can use to protect and hold on to their power." "Soron with the Crown Prince, Noron with Prince Yeon Ing." "They will not stop this battle." "You know too what path he must walk, and what his destiny is." "Your Majesty..." "I'm going to ask you a very important question, Dong Yi." "Not as a King, but as a son's father, ...to you, his mother." "Don't you think that Prince Yeon Ing must become King?" "Is that not the only way he will live?" "The only person who can take over the throne after you is the Crown Prince." "This must happen, no matter what." "However..." "However the only way to save Prince Yeon Ing is..." "He must also..." "He must also become King." "As his mother, that is the conclusion I have come to."
