"Brought to you by WITH S2 Written In The Heavens Subbing Squad" "Episode 45" "Look at the horses!" "Look at the horses!" "You up there!" "Come down this instant!" "You little rascals!" "You little scoundrels!" "How dare you interrupt the nobles!" "You need to be beaten!" " Come here, you rascal!" " Let go of him!" "You appear to be an educated scholar." "But how can your language and actions be so crude?" "Wh...what...?" "The great Taegong once said," "One should not belittle others while considering oneself to be precious," "And one should not insult others for their weakness while considering oneself to be great." "You may be a noble," "But how dare you beat a child in such a violent manner?" " Release the child!" " You rascal!" "How dare a lowborn child talk to me in this manner!" "You deserve a beating to come to your senses!" "Men, seize that child!" "Halt!" "I am a Prince!" "Did you not hear me?" "I am a Royal Prince!" "(Prince Yeon Ying" " The future King Yeongjo)" " Geum!" " Mother!" "What happened?" "What are you doing here?" "I was watching the procession with some children, ...but that nobleman began beating them." " So..." " Are you this brat's mother?" " I asked you if you are his mother!" " That is so." "By what you're wearing," "My son seems to have been correct in that you are a scholar." "What?" "Then you should also know that a Royal Consort is living in the city." " Am I right?" " What?" "A Royal Consort?" "I have never heard of such nonsense!" "You knave!" "Do you dare mock the monarchy?" "Do you want to be dragged to the dungeons for your crime of disrespect towards the Royal Family?" "Don't say such things...!" "Then... who are you?" "Did I not just tell you who I am?" "Then you mean..." "you're the Royal Consort?" "Please forgive me!" "Pardon me, Your Highness." "What should I do with him?" "Please forgive me, Your Highness!" "I deserve death!" "Please forgive me!" "I have caused you great trouble with my foolishness!" "Your Highness?" "It's all right." "It's not a big incident." "Send him back and take the children home." "Yes, Your Highness!" "Please forgive me!" "Please forgive me!" " My Lord!" "Are you all right?" " Let go!" "How was I supposed to know who they are.." "...when they're dressed like beggars?" "But how peculiar..." "How can a boy who looks only around 7 or 8 recite Taegong's works?" "What?" "What are you talking about, My Lord?" "Forget it." "Would you know if I told you?" "Let's go." "Geum!" "Mother, are the children who were with me safe?" "Yes, they will be fine." "But why are you here without Lady Bong or Ae-Jong?" " What...?" " Did you trick them again?" " Mother, I..." " Geum, what did I tell you?" "I told you to always tell the attendants where you're going!" "Why have you done this again!" " I am going to have to punish you!" " What?" "Punish me?" "Raise your arms higher!" "Who are you looking at?" "Don't look at them." "No one will help you today." " Don't look at him." " Yes, Your Highness." "You do the same thing, but you're punishing him..." "Lady Bong!" "Your Highness, it's been over an hour." "You should stop..." "Stop?" "I'm just getting started." " It will be a full two hours today!" " Mother...!" " Your Highness!" " Your Highness!" " Come with me." " Mother?" " Your Highness!" " She won't do anything else, will she?" " Have you eaten?" " Not yet..." "There's a place that serves great soup." "Let's go and get some." "Mother, where are we going?" " Are we going to the tigers?" " What?" "I heard that parents ask tigers to take their children away when they don't listen." "So you know that you've done wrong?" "Yes, Mother." "I won't do it again." "Fine." "Since you acknowledge you were wrong," "I will tell the tigers to go back home." "Because you did a good thing by standing up for the weak." "Mother!" "Let's go!" "Be careful." "Sit here." " Look down there, Geum." " Mother!" "You can see well from here, right?" "I used to bring my friends here to watch the processions." " You did?" " That's right." "I used to be their leader!" "What?" "How can a girl be a leader?" "What did I tell you?" "Being born a woman or a lowborn does not make one incapable." "Yes, I forgot." "You said what's important is a person's ability, not his status." "That's right." "Wow!" "Mother, look over there!" "Geum, you know what you said to that scholar?" " Did you learn that at school?" " No, I read it in a book in your room." " You read one of my books?" " Yes, Mother." "Mother, those Emissaries must be on their way to the Palace, right?" "Probably." "Then they'll be seeing Father soon." "Geum..." "Mother, won't you tell me about Father again?" " About Father?" " Yes, I love it when you talk about him!" "Yes, let's do that." "What story do you want to hear today?" "Your Majesty..." "It is time for the Emissary's banquet." "All right." "Let's go." "His Majesty the King!" "Father." "Your Majesty." "Let's begin." "I heard you went sightseeing with the Crown Prince." " Did you enjoy yourself?" " Of course, Your Majesty." "His Highness showed us the sights and also composed a poem for us." "(Crown Prince Yoon, the Future King Gyeongjong)" " Indeed?" " Yes, Father." "Seeing the Crown Prince," "I can only expect bright and positive things on Joseon's future, Your Majesty!" " Are you unwell, my son?" " No, Father." " My son!" " Your Highness!" "Take His Highness in!" "Call the Royal Physician now!" "Are you all right, my son?" "Call the physician immediately!" "Your Highness!" "Hurry!" "Your Highness!" "What happened?" "Why did the Crown Prince collapse?" "He lost consciousness during the banquet." "Please don't worry, Your Highness." "It appears to be from dizziness." "Brother...!" "I need to speak to Her Highness in private." "Yes, My Lord." "Who is the physician with him?" "Don't worry, Your Highness." "We sent for Physician Nam." "The physician says it is nothing to worry about, Your Majesty." "Indeed?" "Physician Nam said that it was mild fatigue." "Wait, did you just say Physician Nam?" "Yes, Your Majesty." "What is it, My Queen?" "It's nothing, Your Majesty." "The Crown Prince has been pale these days." "Tell them to use all their efforts." "Yes, Your Majesty." "How is the Crown Prince's condition?" " The dizziness is..." " You know I'm not talking about that!" "Tell us!" "Has his condition deteriorated?" "His Highness is weak, ...and none of the tonics we tried have had any effect." "What?" "No effect?" " Then you mean...?" " It's too early to say, but..." "If he does not recuperate soon, he may never have descendents!" "Physician Nam!" "What...?" "Your Highness!" "Your Majesty, why do you think it odd that Physician Nam is taking care of the Crown Prince?" "His Majesty specifically sent for the Royal Physician today." "It just seems strange that they would deliberate turn that down and ask for Physician Nam." "Isn't that because..." "Physician Nam has been taking care of the Crown Prince all his life?" "That's exactly what Her Majesty is suspicious about, Minister." "By right, the Crown Prince is taken care of by the Royal Physician." "By for the past few months," "Consort Hui has been summoning Physician Nam instead." "Consort Hui has staked everything on the Crown Prince." "So why would she turn away the Royal Physician and seek a mid-level physician?" "We are putting our faith in you, Physician Nam." " You must obtain this herb." " Yes, My Lord." "You must watch Physician Nam carefully, Brother!" "This must never be leaked out." "If there is ever any suspicion, I will not hesitate to silence him." "If that herb cannot be found in Joseon, then we must seek it in Qing." "It may be found there!" "Your Highness, you must restrain yourself." " He is still young." "When he recovers..." " I know that." "But what if His Majesty finds out?" "What if he finds out that the future King may not be able to sire any children?" "That may put the Crown Prince's position in danger!" "Your Highness, you're taking it too far." "Who can replace the Crown Prince in the Palace?" "Someone outside the Palace can." " Consort Chun's prince." " But Your Highness..." "His Majesty has not sought out Consort Chun in six years." "That means he has abandoned the prince as well." "You must get her out of your mind." "You've been worried about her for six years." "His Majesty didn't seek her out once during that time." "But what if he has missed her all this time?" "What?" "What if he's been waiting for the time when he can call her back to the Palace?" " Your Highness!" " I know!" "But His Majesty is a strong man." "He may have been able to cut her off as he did to me." "But what if he had unwillingly endured this past six years?" "And what if Consort Chun returns to the Palace with her son?" "It seems there are organizations hoarding copper and scapolite again." "I will conduct a secret inspection of the Bureau of Capital Markets tomorrow." " Make the necessary preparations." " Yes, Your Majesty." "Your Majesty, the night grows deep." " Please retire to your bedchambers." " I'm all right." "Don't worry about me." "But..." "I'm fine." "Leave me." "I will summon you if I need you." "Yes, Your Majesty." "Your Highness!" "Be quiet!" "Your Highness!" "Your Highness!" "Mother is thinking about Father right now." "What?" "It's all my fault." "I begged her to tell me about him today." "That's why she's become sad." "Your Highness..." "Mother said she did a great wrong to Father." "She said she made Father sad." "Lady Bong, do you know what that was?" "Do you know what she did that made Father so angry?" " Your Highness..." " Your Highness..." "Your Majesty..." "Recites classical teachings..." "Amongst all living things, none is greater than man." "And man is greatest because of the five reasons." "The five reasons!" "If you are so tired, shall I give you a room?" "No, Master, I'm all right!" "As a Royal Prince," "Shouldn't you set an example amongst these sons of noblemen?" "Yes, Master!" "Shall we move on." "Not all Princes are the same." "His mother is a lowborn." " She was a slave in the Palace." " Really?" "That's right!" "And she was kicked out because she committed a crime!" "Your Highness, what are you looking for?" "Have you seen "The Doctrine of the Mean" and "The Great Learning"?" "I'm sure I left them here." "I think I saw them in the Prince's room." "In the Prince's room?" "When one's parents call out, one should run to them immediately." "When they give a command," "One should do it quickly and without hesitation." "When one sits before one's parents, do not sit idly or lay down before them." "If he's part lowborn, how can he even learn like the rest of us?" "And how can he still be a Prince when he's been kicked out?" "You knaves!" "How dare you!" "What is this?" "The others were talking about me and..." "First you sleep during class, and now you pay attention to such nonsense!" "That's why you still haven't mastered "Elementary Learning" yet!" "I've already finished "Elementary Learning"." "I've also read "The Doctrine of the Mean" and "The Great Learning"." "I can recite "Elementary Learning" by heart," "But you keep teaching us the same thing over and over..." "Now you make up this foolishness to excuse yourself!" " You may be a Royal Prince, but...!" " All you have to do is test me, Master." "Why do you say I'm making things up without asking me?" "Fine, Your Highness." "Then I will begin my questions." "This question will be regarding the chapter on entering school." " The six virtues are..." " The six virtues are wisdom, grace, ...integrity, loyalty, courage, and tranquility." "Fine, then next it will be the chapter on wise teachings." "A good man must..." "A good man must have a mind deep and wide." "His mind must be as water." "That's amazing!" "Now then, I'll ask about good works!" " A Qin man named..." " A Qin man named Wang Yun said," "When one serves one's parents, ensure the face is peaceful and at peace." " He really knows it!" " He's really amazing!" "Why are all these books here?" "I doubt Ae-Jong put them here by mistake." "You mean it was Geum who put them here?" "It wasn't me or Ae-Jong, so yes." "I wonder why?" "He can't possibly be reading them." "Maybe he used them as pillows?" "Geum, you know what you said to that scholar?" " Did you learn that at school?" " No, I read it in a book in your room." "It is possible that Geum has read these...?" "But how?" "He's so strange!" "It's you!" "Have you recovered from that beating?" " Your Highness..." " Be quiet!" "The others might hear you!" "What are you doing here?" "Were you on your way somewhere?" "You mean you didn't teach the Prince anything privately?" "That's right." "I did teach him some "Elementary Learning" due to his quick learning." "But I didn't do much because I thought it would be better if he learnt it at school." "Then you mean he learned everything by himself?" "Even the "Doctrine of the Mean" and "The Greater Learning"?" ""Doctrine of the Mean" and "The Greater Learning"?" "Yes, Your Highness." "It wasn't just "Elementary Learning"." "I was so surprised that I questioned him," "And he has mastered both of those books." "What?" "A feast at the Palace?" "Yes, the King holds a feast for lowborn children every year at the Palace!" "And the children in our village are going!" "That's right!" "The Palace...?" "It smells so good!" "Let us in!" "You're going to go in with us, Your Highness?" "You're going in like that, Your Highness?" "Don't call me Your Highness!" " Your Highness!" " Don't I look like a lowborn like this?" "Your Highness..." "I'm going to meet my father when I go into the Palace." "I have something to tell him." " Come children, you may enter." " Let's go!" "Goodness!" "Why are you alone again?" "Where's His Highness?" " My Lady...!" " What?" "Has he run away again?" "That's not the end of it." "This is a major disaster!" "Major disaster?" "Has the Prince been hurt?" "What did you say, Lady Bong?" " The Prince has been hurt?" " Your Highness!" " Ae-Jong!" " No, Your Highness, that's not it." "His Highness  has gone to the Palace!" " What?" " What?" "The Palace?" "Yes, I asked the children at school where he went and..." "And..." "So this is the Palace." "This is where Father lives!" "Your Highness, the palace is huge!" " I'm getting dizzy it's so big!" "Right, Your Highness?" " Your Highness!" " Your Highness!" "Where did he go?" "Father will be at the Grand Palace." "Your Majesty, it's almost time." "Is it?" "Wait a moment." " Your Highness!" " Your Highness!" "Lady Jung!" "Lady Nam!" "Lady Yu is searching for the Prince with the girls." "Inspector Shim is also meeting with Chief Suh to seek his help, Your Highness." " What?" "The Prince is in the Palace?" " Yes, My Lord." "It will cause a commotion if his presence is known." "We must find him immediately!" " Officer Nam." "Officer Hwang." " Yes, My Lord!" "Let's go!" "Consort Hui must not know about this." "Search for the Prince in absolute secrecy!" "Yes, My Lady!" "Not here?" "I'm going to go crazy!" "Let's go!" "Sir!" " He's not over there." " Then go to the Grand Palace." "Hurry!" "Yes, sir." "Let's go!" "The Grand Palace?" "That's it!" "That's where Father is!" "It's the dragon emblem!" "That's Father!" "Father!" " Who goes there?" " Let me through!" "Father!" " What are you doing?" " Let me go!" "I have to see Father!" "Father!" " The Crown Prince?" " His Majesty the King!" " Your Majesty." " My Queen." "What is causing this commotion?" "Forgive me, Your Highness." "But this child was causing a disturbance and we were..." "Did you call me "Father"?" "I'm certain that's what you were saying." "I..." "I..." "You are a young lowborn boy and don't know this." "But only Royal Princes can call the King "Father"." "You can be taken away and beaten for that so you must be careful." "I hear there is a banquet for lowborn children in the Palace today." "He must lost his way." "Return him to the banquet." "Yes, Your Highness." " Let's go." " I am not a lowborn!" "And I know that only Royal Princes can call the King "Father"." " I am..." " Crown Prince!" "Mother." "What is going on here, Crown Prince?" "What is this?" "Who is this child?" "This boy was trespassing and blocked His Highness' path." "What?" "Then why hasn't he been taken away yet?" "How dare a mere lowborn child enter the Palace and block the path of the Crown Prince?" "Take him away and beat him severely..." "Let us not trouble ourselves any further with this." " Send him on his way like I ordered." " Yes, Your Highness." " Let's go!" " Let go of me!" "I said let go!" "Let's go." "Get out of here, you rascal!" "I have to go in!" "I have to see His Majesty!" "Look at this lunatic!" "You must have lost your mind!" "Leave before we give you a beating!" "Let me in!" "I'm a Prince!" "I said I'm a Prince!" "I have to see Father!" "I have to!" "I have to see Father!" "Geum..." "Tell the Bureau of Capital Markets to hand over all records of copper intake and output." "Order the Tribunal to monitor all the officers dismissed from the Bureau." "Yes, Your Majesty." " What is that sound?" " Your Majesty?" "Father...!" "Why are you crying in this place?" "Your Highness!" "I may not be able to enter the Palace, but I can search outside." "I'm going there now!" "But what if someone sees you when you're there?" "Your Highness!" " What if someone sees her?" " I don't know!" "Here, take this." "Go on." "I heard a strange sound, and here I found a little puppy." "A long time ago," "I found a very pretty puppy here in this same spot." "So if you're finished crying, will you get up?" "You seem to have lost your way." "I'll have someone take you home." " You..." " Who are you?" "You seem to be a man of character." "Tell me, what is your name?" "What did you say?" "I do not wish to forget you." "So worry not, and tell me your name." "What an impudent rascal you are." "What did you say?" "How dare you call me a rascal?" "Do you know who I am?" "You little...!" "Fine then." "Who are you?" "I am a Royal Prince!" "Do you understand?" "I may look like this, but I am His Majesty's Royal son!" "Geum!" "Geum...!" "Wait." "What did you just say?" " Who are you?" " A Royal Prince!" "If you're a Prince, then you must be...!" " Geum!" "Geum!" " Mother!" " Geum!" " Mother!" "Geum!" "Your..." "Your Majesty!" "Geum!" "Are you all right?" "Have you been hurt in any way?" "No, Mother." "I'm so sorry!" "No, Geum!" "Thank you for being safe!" "Thank you for coming back!" "Thank you for being safe!" "Dong Yi...!" "Where have you been?" "And what happened to your face?" " You may retire for the night." " Yes, Your Highness." "Geum, you need to sleep too." "You must be exhausted, right?" "Mother, why aren't you angry with me?" "Mother..." "Because I know." "I know why you did it." "But Geum, you must never do that again." "You must never go to the Palace again." "But I wanted to see Father and beg him to forgive you." "I wanted to see Father up close for once." "Geum..." "But Geum, you must know that if you do this, Father will suffer." "Why?" "Why can't I see Father?" "Why will Father suffer if I see him?" "That's because you are so adorable." "If Father sees you," "He won't be able to let you go." "Then like a long time ago," "He will suffer again." "Come here." "Geum..." "I'm a Royal Prince!" "I may look like this, but I am His Majesty's Royal son!" "Geum!" " Your Majesty..." " You saw her too?" "She was right there in front of me." "And Geum, that child, was in front of me." "Do you know how much I missed her?" "Do you know how I longed to embrace that child?" "Your Majesty...!" "How big he has grown!" "How he has grown!" " Did you find out anything?" " Yes, My Lady." "Physician Nam was purchasing herbs separately and giving them to the Crown Prince." " Are you certain?" " Yes, one of his nurses told me." "Consort Hui is hiding something." "The Crown Prince must be suffering from a condition that cannot be revealed." "This is the herb from Qing." "Deliver this to Her Highness." "Yes, Madam." "Are you out of your mind?" "Ho-Yang, have you gone insane?" "I came to this decision after much deliberation!" "Don't try to stop me, Mother!" "Much deliberation?" "And the conclusion was to ruin the family?" "What about your position?" "Who cares about that low-level government job?" " What?" " I don't care about that." "All I want to do is keep that girl." "Ho-Yang!" "Ho-Yang!" "He's finally lost his mind!" "Woe is me!" "Ae-Jong!" "How can she be so beautiful even though six years have passed?" "You must be a fairy!" "What do you feel like eating today?" "Yes.. yes...!" "I will take care of you when His Majesty has discarded you!" "I won't abandon you even if you sell off this nation!" "Dong Yi!" "Come here!" "You've finally lost your senses!" "What?" "Kidnap?" "You're going to kidnap Consort Chun?" "No, Father, not right now." "I'm going to do it at night." "You lunatic!" "I'm not talking about night or day!" "You lunatic!" "You fool!" "You lunatic!" "I know you love your women." "But how can you think about kidnapping a Royal Consort?" "Then what am I supposed to do?" "She's all alone and it's driving me crazy!" " I keep thinking about her!" " What did you say?" "Father, it's been six years!" "His Majesty has forgotten about her!" "No one will look for her even if she disappears!" "I will." "I'll look for her!" " Father!" " Shut your mouth and come with me!" "What?" "Kidnap her?" "I'll kidnap you!" "Come with me!" "Lady Bong." " Yes, Your Highness?" " Bring Geum here." "Yes, Your Highness." "Yesterday, I met with the school master." "What?" " And he said something strange." " Mother, that's..." "That's because I find "Elementary Learning" was boring." "No, Geum, I'm not talking about that." "What?" "These books." "Did you take them from my room?" " Yes." " Why?" "To read." "I had already memorized "Elementary Learning" when you taught it to me." "So..." "So you read these books by yourself?" "Both the "Greater Learning" and "Doctrine of the Mean"?" "Yes." "Then will you show me what you know?" "Yes, Mother." "This is the "Greater Learning"." "Recites verse from "The Greater Learning"" "What is its meaning?" "If it is not in one's heart, one cannot see it." "One cannot hear it, nor can one taste it." "Recites verse from "The Greater Learning"" "And this?" "All objects have an origin and an end, and matters have a beginning and a conclusion." "To know what is first and what is last will lead one to the way." "Was I wrong?" "Did I make a mistake?" "You mean the Prince understands these books?" "But Your Highness, these are "Greater Learning" and "The Doctrine of the Mean"!" "Is that even possible?" "It's amazing that he mastered "Elementary Learning" at the age of 7." "But how could he already have mastered the books that even scholars have difficulty understanding?" "How...?" "It wasn't just "Elementary Learning"." "I was so surprised that I questioned him, ...and he has mastered both of those books." "I don't think we can send Geum to school anymore." "Your Highness?" "No one must know that he is special." "His life may be in danger if others find out." " Do it quickly!" " Hold the ladder properly!" "He's coming!" "I'm not going to sleep in class today." "You...!" "Some boys have prepared a dirty trick up there!" "What?" "They're behind there." "Those rascals!" "One, two, three...!" "Run!" "I'm going to the school to bring Geum back." "Your Highness!" "We'll go." " No, I'll go." " Your Highness!" "We should go with her." "What do we do?" "Wait...!" "Wait a moment!" " Let's..." "let's rest a while." " Are you all right?" "How can a grown man be so weak?" "Is it because you're a noble?" "But we only ran a short distance." "Hurry up!" "We're going to get caught, sir!" "Let's go slowly." "I've never run before." "What?" "You've never run before?" "That's right." "I know you're a nobleman, but still...!" "You're saying the same thing, Your Highness..." "I, Justice Officer of the Prefecture, greet you, Your Highness!"
