"Brought to you by WITH S2 Written In The Heavens Subbing Squad" "Episode 31" "Halt...!" "The palace maiden Chun Dong Yi is no longer a Lady Investigator." "Going forward, she shall be treated in accordance as a Special Court Lady  who has shared relations with the King." "Your Majesty!" "Shared relations...?" "Don't you know what that means, Councilor?" "You're not asking me to explain the meaning of that, are you?" "Your Majesty!" " Please come this way." " Chief Eunuch!" "This isn't my Lady Investigator uniform!" "How can I wear robes like these?" "It is His Majesty's will." "He will explain everything." "How can you elevate Palace Maiden Chun to Special Court Lady?" "That is preposterous!" "She is a criminal who ran away from the Palace." "She is not only lost her rights to live in the Palace, ... but committed a grave crime." "How can you elevate a criminal to become a Special Court Lady?" "This cannot happen." "She is a criminal that must be punished!" "Chun Dong Yi is not a court lady, but a criminal!" "Your Majesty!" "When she shared my bed," "She obtained the rights to be in the Palace again." "This is not a matter for discussion." "It is the prerogative of the Royal Monarchy!" "Your Majesty!" "How can this be?" "Uncle, the King is using this method to protect the girl." "We won't be able to charge her with a crime this way." "Ridiculous!" "A Special Court Lady!" "She's about to become a Special Court Lady!" " Let me through!" "Hurry!" " Let her through." "So they're discussing how to deal with Dong Yi at the Grand Palace right now?" "Yes, Your Majesty." "Dong Yi ran away from the Palace." "At the very least, she will have to pay the price for that." "The peony blooms have all died." "It must be because it is the end of its season." "Do not let it trouble you, Your Majesty." "Your Majesty!" " Your Majesty!" " What happened?" "Your Majesty!" "I asked you what happened!" "Hey!" "Is it true?" "Was Dong Yi really wearing a Dang'ui?" "It wasn't just a Dang'ui!" "It was covered with silver emblems!" "It was a Sorae Dang'ui!" "A Sorae Dang'ui?" "But that's what palace maidens wear after they've shared the King's bed!" " But why would Dong Yi wear that?" " Why else?" "I doubt she stole it!" " Then...?" " She's been with the King!" "She has shared the King's bed!" "Ae-Jong, are you crazy?" "Dong Yi did what?" "She said Dong Yi slept with the King!" "It's true!" "I saw her palanquin!" "Do you think it's that easy to attract the King's eye?" " What nonsense!" " I know." "And if it was true, why would it be so quiet here?" "A decree should have been given and..." " Where is Lady Jung?" " She's in the office." "Is that really true?" "I have to confirm it, but the palace is buzzing with the news!" "That's crazy!" "How could Dong Yi have...?" "What is this I hear?" "We have to prepare for Dong Yi to become Special Court Lady?" "What is going on?" "What?" "You mean it's true?" "Say something, Lady Jung!" "You must know something!" " Your Majesty!" " You're here!" " And the girl?" " She has entered the Palace." " She has?" " Yes." "Her residence is not yet ready, so I escorted her to temporary quarters." "Indeed." "Was she very surprised?" "She was confused because she didn't know what was happening." "Of course." "Of course she would be." "Are you uncomfortable, My Lady?" "Not at all." "Please don't mind me." "By the way, My Lady..." "When can I leave?" "Yes, this place is a bit uncomfortable." "But please don't worry." "Once your residence is ready, you will move there." "Residence?" "Yes, your residence where you live, My Lady." "What?" "And please speak informally to me, My Lady." "My Lady?" "What do you mean by that?" "Why do you address me like that?" "And what do you mean by my residence?" "I..." " Chief Eunuch..." " Yes, Your Majesty." "How should I explain this to her?" "I mean, I did all of this in order to protect her." "But I don't know how she will take all of this." "What do you mean by how she will take it?" "We've had such an easy relationship thus far." "But this is like..." "like getting married." "She might be bewildered by all of this." "Is that how you feel, Your Majesty?" "You don't feel like you're just making her a Special Court Lady, ... but you feel like you're getting married to her?" "Of course." "I just want to know how she would feel about this." "I don't want her to just go along with this because she's a palace maiden, ... but because she cares about me." "Your Majesty, will you permit me to speak my mind?" "If you feel that way, then tell her exactly how you feel." "What would be better than that?" "A Special Court Lady?" "Who..?" "Me?" "Yes, that is what we were told, My Lady." "So this Dang'ui and this residence is all because of that?" "Yes, My Lady." "I..." "You must be mistaken, My Lady." " I..." " My Lady!" "His Majesty has arrived!" "Your Majesty!" "Your Majesty!" "Your Majesty, did you know that there seems to be a misunderstanding?" "The Chief Eunuch has made a mistake!" "What?" "A mistake?" "Yes!" "He thought when you visited me last night that..." "He seems to have misunderstood..." "So the Court Ladies are addressing me as..." " Dong Yi." " Yes, Your Majesty." " It's not a mistake." " What?" "It was on my orders." "What?" "Dong Yi is staying at the Residence East of the Grand Palace." "Make sure security is tight." "Yes, My Lord." "By the way, I don't see Officer Cha around." "Me neither." "Shall I send some men out?" "No, don't do that." "Let him be." "This is what His Majesty told me." "He's going to make Dong Yi into a Special Court Lady?" "Yes, he has decided that this is the best way to keep Dong Yi safe." "But more importantly, this is His Majesty's true feelings for Dong Yi." "You mean you gave orders for all of this, Your Majesty?" "This Dang'ui, my residence..." "Even making me a Special Court Lady?" "Yes, I did." "Why?" "Why did you do this?" "Did you forget?" "I told you I would do everything in my power for you." "Your Majesty...!" "It was to protect you." "I couldn't leave you alone in the capital, ... nor bring you back into the Palace as you were." "You risked your life for me and my government." "It is only right that I protect you now." "If you become a Special Court Lady, no one will dare harm you." "Because that would be the same thing as trying to harm me." "But even so, Your Majesty, this isn't right." "This is a lie." "It's not completely a lie." " What?" " Because I really care for you." " Let's go." " What?" "Already?" "But you should stay tonight..." "I said let's go!" "Give me your hand." "I said give me your hand." "Your Majesty!" "Do you remember that day when we were at the marketplace?" "I bought it that day for you." "But I didn't know then." "I didn't know that's how I felt." "Your.." "Your Majesty..." "None of this is a mistake, a misunderstanding, or a lie." "The way I feel about you is real." "So will you give it some thought?" "Consider being with me and accepting my heart, I mean." "Why is my heart beating so fast?" "Should I summon the Royal Physician?" "Goodness!" "Why are you taking so long?" "Let's go!" "My dear, where are you going off to?" "Where else?" "I'm going to Yoon's house." "What?" "Why are you going there again?" "You can't be going there to gloat?" "You're not...?" "Yes, My Lord!" "I'm going there to gloat!" "I'm going to go there and laugh my head off!" "How can you be so immature?" "This incident has caused chaos in the Palace!" "The entire South Faction is in turmoil!" "I know that's bad, but I can't help but be pleased!" "Let's go!" "Why are you sitting there like that?" "You rascal, let's go!" "We need to go support my brother!" "Can you go alone today?" " I won't get a word in anyway!" " What?" "I've never had another rascal steal a girl that I liked!" "Do you even know how I feel?" "You stupid boy!" "Did you just call His Majesty a rascal?" "Are you crazy?" "You've finally lost your mind!" "Yes, I've lost my mind!" "How can I be sane when my girl has been stolen from me!" "I know you're my son, but you're really something." "Ho-Yang, you're really something!" " Hey, I think that's the place." " Yes, I saw Dong Yi going in there!" " Shall I call her?" " Call her?" "Who do you think you are?" "Dong Yi is an exalted Special Court Lady now." "Then how do we see her?" "Who goes there!" "Why are you loitering over here?" " Sir, we're..." " Take these suspicious fellows away!" "Yes, sir!" " No, we're not suspicious!" "We're..." " Sir!" "Dong Yi!" "Please let them go." "I know these men." "Release them." "Dong Yi!" "Sirs..!" "What happened to you!" "You're going to drive me to my grave!" "Sir!" "Come in." "I can't believe you're here!" " Don't you agree, sir?" " Yes, this is wonderful." "I caused you a lot of worry, haven't I?" "Are you kidding me?" "You rascal, you scared me half to death!" "I'm going to die early because of you!" "I'm sorry, sir." " That's enough for now." " What?" "I'm just getting started." "What's all this about you being a Special Court Lady anyway?" "I'm looking at you, but I still can't believe it!" "You know... actually..." "You don't have to be embarassed, Dong Yi." "We know everything." " But actually..." " Let's leave." "You've said enough!" "Actually, I've known from the beginning." "His Majesty's gaze was so hot when he looked at you!" "Say something, sir!" "Don't you agree?" " We both knew from the start..." " Stupid boy!" "Come to your senses!" "Sir!" " Why did you hit me?" " You..." "She's now a Special Court Lady." "Don't you know what that means?" " I know, but Dong Yi is..." " Don't say her name!" "A Special Court Lady is higher in rank than the Chief Madam!" "That means Dong Yi is..." "My stupid mouth!" "That's what's going to happen to Her Ladyship!" "Don't be like that, sir!" "I'm just..." "Please don't call me 'sir'!" "You'll get in trouble!" "You must never call me 'sir' again, My Lady!" "Sir!" "Then call her My Lady Dong Yi...?" "Don't push me!" "Sir!" "She is a lowborn girl of no consequence!" "And she's been living outside the Palace!" "How could His Majesty do this?" "A Special Court Lady is higher in rank than the Chief Madam!" "That means that she's second only to the Queen in rank!" "She was on the side of the deposed Queen and threatened our power!" "We must now allow her to have this power!" "But this is a matter of the Inner Court." "We have no reasonable excuse to stop this." "The Queen can stop it." "She violated her duty as a palace maiden." "As head of the Inner Court, the Queen can punish her for this." "He's right!" "How has the Queen reacted to this?" "She has not granted anyone an audience yet." "I've come to see Her Majesty." "Is she inside?" "Yes, Your Excellency." "The ministers are protesting?" "How can they do this?" "But they have a point." "Her birth status is an issue, ... and she was out of the Palace for a period of time." "Dong Yi had to leave the Palace because of me." "But Your Majesty, that is a separate matter." "The fact that she lacks the qualifications  to become a superior in the Inner Court is a valid one." "Minister, it was I who asked her to stay with His Majesty." "So how can you say this?" " Your Majesty!" " I beg you, Minister." "Please get the West Faction's support  so that she does not have to suffer any longer." "My Lady, someone from the Office of Investigations is here." " My Lady!" " Dong Yi!" "So it was true!" "What do you mean you didn't really share His Majesty's bed?" "He did this to protect me from danger when I returned to the Palace." "I see." "So that's how he wanted to protect you." "But even so, how does that change things?" "This is how much he cares for you." " My Lady, that..." " Dong Yi." "This may be the last time I call you by your name." "So listen to me as someone who was once your teacher." "My Lady..." "Many people will try to make things difficult for you." "They will say you are not worthy and not qualified." "But that's all true." "How could I even consider it?" "No, you are more worthy than anyone else." "Don't you remember when you first joined the Office of Investigations?" "You said that although you were lowborn by birth, ... your heart wasn't lowborn." "And you showed everyone that your words were true." "You became a proficient and expert Lady Investigator." "So how can you say you're not worthy?" "How can you not accomplish this when you've accomplished so much?" "My Lady...!" "But even so, I cannot stay here." "Dong Yi..." "My circumstances do not allow me to be with the King." "I cannot." "I must not do this." "What do you mean, Dong Yi?" "What do you mean by your circumstances?" "Dong Yi..." "This is the murderer who killed the Officer last night and his daughter." "The Sword Fraternity Chief's daughter is here." "Find her!" "There she is!" "The Chief's daughter!" "Father...!" "Dong Yi?" "We must stop her from becoming a Special Court Lady." "I'm sure you don't want to serve her as your superior either." "What do I need to do?" "Investigate her background." "I'm sure there's something that can be of use." "Don't miss any detail, no matter how small." "Do you understand me?" "Yes, My Lord." "I am Officer Cha Chun Soo of the Royal Guard." "May I humbly request an audience with His Majesty?" " Officer Cha?" " Yes, Your Majesty." " Let him in." " Yes, Your Majesty." "Welcome..." "I've been thinking of summoning you here too." " Come closer." " Yes, Your Majesty." "Tell you how I feel about Dong Yi?" "Your Majesty, I know this is presumptuous, but I wanted to ask you this." "I want to know how you really feel about Dong Yi." "Please forgive my presumptuousness, Your Majesty." "Not at all." "It's about your beloved sister after all." "But before I answer that, I want to ask something too." "Are you asking this as her brother, or as a man?" "Don't be startled." "I'm the King, but I'm also a man." "It would be a lie if I said that I didn't mind another man being with my woman." " Don't you agree?" " Your Majesty, I..." "I don't know how Dong Yi feels about me yet." "The only thing I know is how I feel." "Actually, that's why I'm so nervous." "What if she has another man in her heart?" "And if so, what should I do?" "To tell you the truth, she once told me that she didn't think much of me." "What did she say?" "Oh, yes." "She said she liked dark and sturdy men." "Just like you." "So answer my question first." "Are you here today as her brother, or as a man?" "Chun Soo!" "It's strange, isn't it?" "I'm uncomfortable too." "No, I'm looking at you because you're so lovely." "I thought you were someone else." "Chun Soo..." "But why do you look so glum when you're wearing such lovely clothes?" "Are you troubled by something?" "I  don't know what to do anymore." "Can I stay here like this?" "I keep thinking that I can't." "Is this because of what happened?" "It'll come to light one day." "That I'm my father's daughter." "That my father was the Chief of the Sword Fraternity." "Dong Yi..." "I never feared that, even after I entered the Palace." "Because I came here to find the people  who caused the wrongful deaths of the members." "But to the world, father is just a criminal." "And I'm just a criminal's daughter in hiding." " Dong Yi..." " But how can I be with the King?" "How can I hide this from His Majesty and be with him?" "Then do you want to run away, Dong Yi?" " Can you do that?" " Chun Soo...!" "Just like before..." "Before you knew the King..." "Can you live like that again?" "Can you do that?" "Just like before..." "Before you knew the King..." "Can you live like that again?" "You've come, Madam." "How is Her Majesty?" "Is she still turning away visitors?" "Yes, Madam." "Let her know I'm here." "I must see her today!" " Your Majesty!" " Your Majesty..!" "You've come, Mother." "I was just about to summon you." "I will go to the Grand Palace." "Let them know and make preparations." " What?" " I said make preparations!" "Yes, Your Majesty." "Your Majesty, are you all right?" "Why?" "Did you think I would collapse over this?" "Your Majesty...!" "This wasn't completely unexpected." "I was just a little surprised, that's all." "Don't look at me like that, Mother." "I'm fine." "Did you forget?" "You were the one who said a man can never be trusted." "Your Majesty!" "I forgot something." "I forgot that I can only trust in myself." "Your Majesty...!" "What did you just say?" "You want to make a deal?" " My Queen!" " It is as I said." "I will unravel the mess with Dong Yi." "In return, please release my brother." " My Queen!" " You are well aware of this." "The Ministers will do whatever it takes to bring Dong Yi down." "And if they find a flaw, they will not back down." "The most important thing in this nation is a just cause, is it not?" "I will give you that just cause." "Because I am the head of the Inner Court." "The Chief Steward of the Royal Treasury has already died under torture." "All my brother did was to request medicine for his nephew, the Crown Prince." "Do you really think you can condemn my brother with merely Dong Yi's words?" "No, you should be aware that it has become impossible." "How did we become like this?" "Make a deal?" "How can we be talking about this?" "Because this is all that's left." "You and I are merely the King and Queen." "There are no more words of love between us, is there?" "Your Majesty, what will you do?" "Your Majesty, I think it's best if we settle this by demoting the Police Superintendent." "But I can't let them get away with it so easily." "I'm not suggesting we let them get away with it, merely to buy some time." "We cannot let Dong Yi fall into danger again after she risked her life." "Will you let me handle this, Your Majesty?" "There is something else I must investigate." "Something else?" "I will report to you when I have more evidence." "If that is confirmed, ... then everything will be solved, Your Majesty." " Hee-Jae!" " Mother..." "Are you all right?" "I'm fine, Mother." "How is Her Majesty?" "How is she?" "She's suffering!" " Your Majesty!" " Brother!" "How are you?" "Have you been hurt?" "Who cares about me?" "I heard about the girl." "Why haven't you done anything?" "Who cares if I die?" " You should have stopped her first!" " Brother..." "This won't be the end." "What if she is made a concubine and has a child...?" "No!" "As long as I am Queen, that will never happen." "Do you understand now?" "That is why I haven't done anything yet." "Because I want to remain here." "That's the only way I won't see that happening." " Your Majesty..." " I will not give up anything else to her." "Your Majesty, are you really all right?" " You are..." " No, I wasn't all right." "I felt like my heart was ripped out." "But that's why I'm all right now." "I no longer have a heart that can be hurt." "I should have done this from the beginning." "I should have stopped myself from loving His Majesty." "Your Majesty..." "Chief Eunuch!" " What did you find?" " She's nowhere to be found!" "Where could she have gone?" " What is it?" " Your Majesty!" "What is it?" "I..." "We don't know where Her Ladyship is!" "What?" "I am here as her brother, Your Majesty." "Because that is who I am to her." " So may I ask you this as her brother?" " You may." "If she fears being with you, then what will you do, Your Majesty?" "Fears being with me?" "What do you mean by that?" "She may think that she's unable to be with you  because of something out of her control." "Dong Yi..." "What did you find?" "She's not at the Office of Investigations." "I think she's left the Palace, Your Majesty." " I will go out." "Get ready!" " Yes, Your Majesty!" "Your Majesty, Officer Cha sent you this letter." "What?" "Dong Yi's childhood home" "You're hopeless!" "Father, are you sure she's related to us?" " How can she be so bad?" " I think she sounds wonderful." "No, she's awful!" "She's just a little good." " Hey, stop harassing my bride." " Why is she your bride?" "When did I ever consent to give her to you?" "I don't care what you say." "I'm still going to marry Chun Soo when I grow up." " What?" " What...?" "You heard her, didn't you?" "She's going to marry me!" "She sounds better than you!" "She will be at the cliff, Your Majesty." "Today is the anniversary of the day her father and brother died." "Please stop Dong Yi, Chief." "So that she can do what I wish for with all my heart." "I will remember these things only in my heart." "I will hold it in my heart and avenge your wrongful deaths." "But Dong Yi... that child  will disappear like this." "So that nobody will ever be able to find her..." "So that she can be with His Majesty and be happy for the rest of her life..." "I will protect her." "There should be a cliff somewhere." "Find it!" "Yes, Your Majesty!" "It's me, Father..." "Older Brother..." "You can see me, can't you?" "What do I do now, Father?" "Older Brother?" "What should I do...?" " Who are you anyway?" " What?" "Who are you and why are you loitering here?" "Then who are you?" " When I strike, run!" " Sir!" " I command you as King!" " Poongsan?" "The hunting dog that never lets go once it bites!" "His Majesty seems like a very merciful person!" " His Majesty is really gracious!" " Yes, he must be!" "Whether it's from His Majesty or me, it's all the same." " Let's go!" " Sir!" "Give me your hand." "It's right here." "I..." "I said raise your head!" "Good!" "I'm fine." "I'm riding a palanquin after all." "Your Majesty!" "Can you do that?" "Just like before..." "Before you knew the King..." "Can you live like that again?" "Your Majesty!" "Do you remember that day when we were at the marketplace?" "I bought it that day for you." "Your Majesty..." "Did you forget already?" "Your Majesty!" "I asked you   to never make me endure being without you again." "Your Majesty...!" "What is it?" "What is it that troubles you so, Dong Yi?" "Can't you share it with me?" "No, it doesn't matter." "Can... can you just stay with me?" "May I... may I do so, Your Majesty?" "That is what I want!" "If I may... if I may..." "I want to accept your heart and give you mine in return!" "May I..." "May I do this, Your Majesty?" " Your Majesty..." " Dong Yi!"
