Episode 18

You will search all the medicine shops in Dosung

and gather all the Lingzhi, Astragalus and Rehmannia that you can find and send them to Yangju.

They got be as good as the herbs from China, but they will be greatly helpful.

With the exception of the physicians already looking after patients, send all the physicians down.

- Yes, Your Highness. - That cannot be done!

His Majesty will be returning to the palace shortly, and will need physicians to be healed.

- How can you order all the physicians to leave? - Our priority is to stop the disease from spreading.

We must send the physicians to the neighboring areas and stop the disease from spreading.

My Prince, the Royal Bureau of Medicine exists for the benefit of His Majesty.

It is their responsibility to work for His Majesty's recovery.

They must stay here until he returns.

Although I understand your opinion, I'm afraid I must heed my own instinct.

My prince...!

His Majesty's purpose for sending me back to the palace was for me to make these decisions in his stead.

Are you saying that you are rejecting my order?

Yes, Your Majesty.

The king's health is well-cared for by the Royal Physician.

The Bureau Physicians must save the people from this disease.

Please remember that my orders are the same as His Majesty's orders.

How dare you... How dare you...!

What brings you to the palace?

I heard Father was ill.

I thought I would hear some news if I came here...

Go home.

Your Highness...!

You were exiled by His Majesty because of your crimes.

By coming here, you have disobeyed His Majesty's orders.

Your Highness, this is too cruel!

I came here to find out the status of Father's health!

Do you not understand what I am saying to you?

I am telling you to obey His Majesty's orders!

Before you were exiled out of the palace, you were the apple of His Majesty's eye.

You cared naught for any of the laws and regulations of the palace and lived as you wished.

But now you won't be able to do so. I will not allow it!

I will send you a report of His Majesty's health when I receive it from Yangju.

So leave at once!

Your Majesty! The prince was acting as if he was already king!

I heard he also stood against you. What do you think this means?

He is now asserting his claim on the throne!

He is saying that he will let Father die and take his place!

What do we do now? If Father dies, everything is over!

- He will more certainly have us executed! - Enough!

- I told you that would never happen! - But Your Majesty...!

That will never happen. Do you understand me?

I will not sit by and let it happen.

On the Hour of the Ram (1-3pm), I will meet with the Ministry of Taxation.

I will discuss with them on what we will do regarding the prices of medicine and the people's distress.

Tell them that I want them to be prepared for the meeting today.

Yes, Your Highness.

Official Nam, go and confirm that the medicinal herbs have been sent to Yangju.

Yes, Your Highness.

Your Highness...

May I say something?

What is it?

Forgive me for saying this... But shouldn't you be making preparations as well?

Preparations? For what?

We do not know when His Majesty will recover.

- You must make preparations... - What are you saying?

How can you say such a thing so easily?

I know it is inauspicious to talk about such things...

- But if it happens, there will be chaos... - Silence!

His Majesty will most definitely recover soon.

Nothing of that sort will ever happen. Do not speak those words to me ever again!

Please forgive me.

One of these days that mouth of yours will get you in trouble!

You saw the state His Majesty was in when we were in Yangju.

We make prepare ourselves for His Majesty's passing.

I told you not to...!

You should be used to me by now. You know I do not mince my words.

Even so, you shouldn't say such things!

But this may be something that the prince feels he cannot say himself.

But if that is how he feels inside, then we must make preparations for him.

Your Highness, the princess is here.

Welcome.

Your face is clouded. Are you unwell?

No, I'm alright.

I am troubled at the news of His Majesty's illness.

Princess...

Yes, Your Highness?

You must not live like me. You must not lose your husband and live in despair.

You must make sure the prince is unharmed.

I will keep your words at heart.

I think I can understand Her Highness when she said she was troubled.

Even though he is the king, he is also the man who caused her husband to die.

How she must blame him!

Now that he is unwell, she must be troubled as to how she truly feels.

She has lived a difficult life. I must take care of her.

Forgive me for saying this, but you're not that different from her.

- Why am I the same as her? - Because you never see the prince!

You spend every night alone...!

At least I can see him every once in a while.

The truly pitiful one is you who will never get married.

Your Highness...!

His Highness will be weary. Go and prepare some refreshments.

Yes, Your Highness.

Now that His Majesty isn't there and we are all here as well,

the prince is free to do as he wishes in the palace.

Even though the queen is there, she is unable to do anything directly.

We must hasten our return to the palace.

We must stop the prince from exerting his influence over the government.

We must move the Royal Entourage to the palace, so meet with the Royal Physician and talk to him.

Yes, Your Excellency.

What? You want the His Majesty to travel back?

It is as I said. We must take His Majesty back to the palace.

That is impossible! His Majesty is so weak he cannot even lift his hand.

In his state, taking a journey of a hundred li will be detrimental to his health!

Can you promise that His Majesty will recover if we stay here?

What?

I'm asking you if His Majesty will be able to recover and rise if we stay here like you're advising.

I'm asking you because we're not in Dosung where medical supplies are more plentiful.

Look here, Secretary Jung...!

If you can guarantee His Majesty's recovery, then I will not speak of this any more with you.

Artist Yi! Artist Yi!

Why are you still in bed?

You have to go and boil the dishes! Artist Yi!

Artist Yi!

You...! What is wrong with your face?

I don't know. I was like this when I woke up.

- You... did you catch the disease? - I don't think so.

I don't have a fever, so I doubt it.

See if I have a fever...

It's alright. I don't need to.

You want.... me to boil the dishes? Wait a moment...

- No... no! Just stay here. - But why?

- It may be the disease...? - Don't worry, I don't have a fever.

No...! Just stay here. I'll boil the dishes myself.

Is that alright with you? I'm sorry, Artist Tak.

No, it's alright. You just here.

That Artist Tak is so stupid!

This is great!

Oh no...!

We will soon be returning to Dosung. Go and prepare for your departure.

We finally leave!

I must leave for a meeting, so you and Artist Yi must organize the Damos and the supplies.

Yes, Sir. But...

- I don't think Artist Yi can return. - What do you mean?

I... I think he has contracted the disease!

What? The disease?

What did you just say? Artist Yi has contract the disease?

I just came from our sleeping quarters. His face was full of sores!

That is most definitely the disease!

- How did that happen? - I think we have to leave him behind here.

If he has contracted the disease, then he must not go with us.

Prevent anyone else from entering the quarters and go and inform the physicians about him.

Yes, Sir.

What are you doing? Let's go pack our belongings!

Why don't you go ahead. I want to go see Sir Yi first.

Are you crazy? He said that no one is to go there!

- But someone should look in on him... - No! What if you catch it?

If you get it, then all of us will be in trouble!

We have to leave him behind. We have no choice.

Even the physicians will be fooled by this!

Long time no see.

How is working at the Investigations Bureau?

I am doing night inspections two nights in a row. It's not a very fulfilling job.

Everyone is waiting. Let us go in.

Thank you for coming. I will come straight to the point so I don't waste your time.

We were all students together, so I know your skills and talents very well.

But what is the use of our skills and talents?

If we don't join the No Ron faction, we have no opportunity to spread our wings.

I heard that you are involved with the Eastern Palace. (Eastern Palace - palace of the Crown Prince)

But it will not be easy to make the prince ascend the throne.

Like you said,

unless you have the support of the No Ron faction, it is difficult to do anything in government.

If you look at it that way, then the prince is in an even worse situation than us.

Your sharp tongue is the same as ever!

But you all know,

I do not fight battles that I cannot win.

The prince will ascend to the throne in the end.

Still... if he becomes king when things are as they are, everything will be chaotic.

That is why I have asked you all here.

This is an opportunity for us to overthrow the corrupt government and open up a new world.

I am asking you if you are willing to support us.

You have to take your medicine to recover! Open your mouth!

But it's bitter!

- You must be better if you're complaining! - Sir!

- You're here! - You could probably come to training tomorrow.

Why not ask me for a duel while you're at it!

Are you trying your moves on the nurses?

- There is only woman in my life! - And who's that?

If I tell you who it is, would you know?

- Do you feel better? - You're here too!

- Sir! - I had to change my bow after practice.

Oh, did you hear? I saw His Majesty returning to the palace.

What? His Majesty?

Yes, I saw the Royal Entourage at the main gate.

Why has he suddenly returned? Has he recovered?

According to the physician, he recovered enough for the journey.

There was no mention of that in the report yesterday.

How could things have changed so suddenly? Have they found a cure?

- I do not think so... - Then why have they returned?

Your Majesty!

Don't just stand there! Escort His Majesty into his chambers!

I most certainly did not hear any report that His Majesty has recovered.

But he has taken a long journey! What is the explanation of this!

His countenance today looks worse than when I left him at Yangju.

How could you subject him to travel!

- The medicine was no good enough there... - Are you using that as an excuse?

You told me specifically that His Majesty could not be moved until he had recovered!

Prince!

His Majesty has returned to the palace safely.

It is a joyous occasion. For what reason are you interrogating the physician?

- But Your Majesty... - What is it?

Is the prince displeased that His Majesty has returned?

Your Majesty, how can you say that?

I must see His Majesty. Announce me.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty...

My Queen...

Why have you become so thin?

So thin...

My Queen...

How can you do this to me?

I live only to behold you.

Forgive me, My Queen.

I don't think I will be able to recover.

Please don't say that!

How can you say such a thing?

No! That is not going to happen!

I will save you! I will use all my power to save you!

Your Majesty...!

Your journey has been long and arduous, Sir.

Not at all, you have worked hard to maintain the Bureau here.

Where is Artist Yi?

Sir, we may never see Artist Yi again.

What?

Why are you doing this? I don't have the disease!

It's fake! I drew it myself! It's not the disease!

I don't have it! I swear I don't have the disease!

I don't have the disease!

Please help me! Get me out of here!

I don't have the disease!

I didn't want to work! They kept telling me to wash dishes!

My hands were getting so rough! I don't have the disease!

Please get me out of here! I can't die in here!

I'm not a dishwasher! I'm an artist!

I'm a Royal Artist from the Bureau!

It was horrible!

They have rashes all over, and really high fevers!

And then they die within a few days.

I will never go to an ancestral visit again...

What are you doing? Don't you see me unpacking?

Sorry, Chobi, but the artists have asked us to do something for them.

Is that right? Come here!

If I catch you, you're all dead!

Well, good work.

- Weren't you scared? - A little.

Oh, you didn't know that Dae Su is being treated in the Royal Hospital, right?

What? Why is Dae Su in the hospital?

He was hurt really badly on the return journey.

They say he almost died!

What? Is that true?

- Bandits attacked him? - That's right.

Isn't that amazing?

I knew the prince was in danger, but I didn't know it was this bad.

Go ahead and go see him. Dae Su will be so happy to see you.

Alright, Uncle.

- Now Dae Su will really recover soon! - Excuse me!

Me?

Are you acquainted with Song Yeon?

Song Yeon? Yes, but...?

Then you must know Park Dae Su too...

Of course I know him. He's my nephew!

Oh, I see...

Has Park Dae Su been badly hurt? How bad is it?

- Will he be alright? - He's better, but we'll have to see.

But... Who are you?

Me?

The weather is nice, isn't it?

Dae Su!

- Oh, Song Yeon! - Just stay still! You're injured!

No, I'm alright. I'm glad you're back soon.

I was worried that you were back there.

Are you alright? Do you feel well?

How can you be worried about me when you look like that, you dummy!

Song Yeon...

You almost died! They say you were almost killed!

Dummy! Why didn't you run away?

Why didn't you hide?

I can almost see it! You fought in the front, didn't you?

So you were worried about me...

- What? - I'm alright, so don't be so worried.

Look! I'm fine!

- Dae Su! - But did you hear that I protected the prince?

It's true! I really protected the prince!

Dae Su!

It's my shoulder...

- Are you alright? - An arrow... right here...

You missed a perfect opportunity and let the prince return to the palace!

- How could you let that happen? - Forgive me.

Fine. How is Father?

Has he shown improvement enough to return to the palace?

He did not return to the palace because he improved.

We couldn't just stay at Yangju, so we risked the return journey back to the palace.

- Then...? - He is still in critical condition.

Then must we really watch the prince become king?

Do you want our deaths so badly?

Even the Royal Physician cannot cure him. What can I do?

I am troubled by this as well. Please do not admonish me so sternly.

- You...! - I am thinking.

I am thinking about how to get out of this.

How have you handled the palace affairs?

Your Majesty, please spare your words.

You must replenish your energy.

Even if I am in bed, I am still king.

I must know what is going on in my country.

Because of the rumors of the disease, prices of medicine, salt and rice have skyrocketed.

The Ministry of Taxation found out that the rumors were spread by the merchants.

We therefore confiscated their profits.

And because of the increased demand for silver, we have allowed the private mining of Mt. Eunkwang.

Additionally, at the request of the Governor of Hamkyung, we moved the location of the barracks to Kilju.

You have done well to use the Ministry of Taxation to find the culprits of the price fixing.

Medicine, rice and salt are staples of our people's lives.

That was a matter that had to be handled immediately.

Even though it may have seemed hasty to allow the private mining of silver,

it was a good decision.

But agreeing to move the barracks was a hasty decision.

Forgive me, Your Majesty.

How can such things be changed in one moment?

Politics must be observed for a long time.

I will heed your words, Your Majesty.

But it is not a bad start.

You have talent at being king.

But... But I...

I was unable to find a cure for your illness.

I have yet... to find a cure...

How foolish you are... Even the Physician cannot find the cure.

How would you find it?

Your Majesty...

Don't try to accomplish something that is impossible.

My destiny is my own. What can you do to change it?

Your Majesty...!

- Secretary Jung. - Yes, Your Highness.

What is the most urgent matter we have to attend to?

We must deal with the shortage of currency rotation.

- Minister of Personnel! - Yes, Your Highness.

Do you have any solutions to this problem?

In order to solve the currency issue, we need copper and iron, but these supplies are limited.

There is no easy solution to this issue.

I hear that there are many copper mines in other countries.

What do you think about trading with them?

The other countries are trading their excess copper with Qing China.

Trading is not a solution, Your Highness.

Have you tried it before?

I asked you if you had tried to trade this with the other countries.

- They are already trading exclusively with Qing... - What is the role of you ministers?

You say that everything is impossible. What do you do for the sake of the people?

Minister of Taxation, send an envoy to the other countries and solve this issue immediately!

Yes, Your Highness.

- Minister of Personnel! - Yes, Your Highness.

You said there was no solution to the currency issue, but shall I tell you what it is?

It is opening up the coffers of the wealthy ministers!

The reason we are having a currency shortage is because the money sits in your coffers.

Thus, you must release the money

or find an alternative solution.

I will try and find a way to solve this problem.

Is the Grand Eunuch there?

Yes, Your Majesty.

I wish to make an Imperial Decree. Summon the Royal Secretary.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Where is the medicine for His Majesty?

We were just about to give it to him, Your Highness.

Bring it here. I will give it to him myself.

What?

Your Majesty! I cannot obey such an order!

How can you give such an order?

What are you doing? I said to write it down!

Your Majesty!

The disease is ravaging my health.

It has become difficult for me to look after the matters of our country.

Do you dare to disobey me?

As the matters of our country cannot be delayed,

I, the sovereign of this country, willingly forfeit my position

and as a king abdicating to a successor,

I thereby pass the crown to my successor the prince.

Therefore, from this moment forward, all matters of government

will be handled by the prince. He will rule in my stead.

Go and fetch the prince this instant.

- An Imperial Decree is being made. - Yes, Sir!

Wait!

Wait a moment. Recall your orders.

The queen has ordered you to not deliver any messages to the Eastern Palace.

Hand over the Imperial Decree.

Your Majesty! Why do you ask such a thing?

What do you mean?

Don't make me repeat myself. Hand it over this instant!

This Imperial Decree was never given. You will ensure that this is never spoken of.

- But Your Majesty, if the king finds out... - I will take care of that.

Just do as you are told.

You may leave.

Yes, Your Majesty...!

Rule in his stead? Rule in his stead?

The Royal Physician and the prince are inside with the king.

Who summoned the prince?

He heard that His Majesty had taken a turn for the worse and came with the Royal Physician.

How is His Majesty?

His fever peaked suddenly and he lost consciousness.

Did His Majesty say anything?

When I came here, he was already unconscious.

Do you know what this is?

This is an Imperial Decree to let the prince rule in His Majesty's stead.

Did Father really order the prince to rule in his stead?

Fortunately, this was never delivered to the prince.

But, when the king regains consciousness,

this is our reality.

- Minister of Personnel! - Yes, Your Majesty.

What will you do? Will you sit and do nothing?

Why are you all so quiet? Say something!

Do we have no solution to this?

We were hoping His Majesty would recover, but now we can't even hope for that.

But if he does pass away, then the prince will ascend to the throne.

- We have no way out of this. - But we must still hope that he recovers!

If he recovers, we can object and persuade him to change his mind about the Imperial Decree.

But if he dies, it will be a bigger problem!

You're right. Our priority is to make His Majesty well.

My Lord! My Lord!

- What is it? - Take a look at this.

Please take a look.

What can we do with this?

We can cause the prince a little grief with this, but we will not be able to change things.

Isn't it better than doing nothing?

How did we come to this?

- Alright then. Go ahead. - Yes, Your Excellency.

What do you mean the palace officials have raised petitions?

I don't know the details, but it is something about how the prince is trying to control government

without a care to His Majesty's health.

This is a big problem, Your Highness.

They are saying that the prince has become overly ambitious for the throne and they are objecting!

Tutor Hong said that he would meet with some of his old schoolmates for their support.

But one of them must have said something and caused this commotion.

Tutor Hong did a very unnecessary thing.

Because of the mention of His Majesty's death, this matter will not be overlooked lightly.

How could this have happened?

Why are you in such a rush?

To be a mere tutor and to cause such commotion in the palace...

You are truly remarkable.

I thought you were above pettiness. I am disappointed, My Lord.

If one is cornered, one must fight back.

As you well know, I am finding myself in many corners.

Until next time.

This is all my fault. Please forgive me for worrying you.

Why did you do such a thing?

Did you think that I wanted you to do that?

Did you really think that I wanted His Majesty to pass away?

You have given them something to rant about, so it will be noisy for the time being.

Go and lay low until things become quiet.

Yes, Your Highness.

This is the medicine. Get it to the Physician and make him add it to His Majesty's medicine.

I don't know if the Royal Physician will do as he's told.

If you can't, then we'll use the Minister of Personnel, and even the queen to get it done.

It is our last hope.

What do you mean?

Did the queen really order the medicine to be made out of herbs she acquired?

Yes. She ordered them to use it despite the objections of the Royal Physician.

We cannot allow that to happen!

Even though the Royal Physician is objecting now,

if His Majesty does not recover and the queen keeps insisting,

we do not know what will happen.

You must do something.

My Lord, if you make us use medicine that does not suit His Majesty, it is like using poison.

I heard that this medicine is fine for patients with high fevers like His Majesty.

What physician told you that? I cannot use this medicine for His Majesty.

Then do you have another way of curing His Majesty?

Tell us what you are going to do.

Your Excellency, we are trying our best to cure His Majesty.

Please leave him to us.

Until when? Until when must we listen to those words?

His Majesty's condition is getting worse. Until when should we wait and do nothing?

We cannot use medicine that the Royal Physician objects to.

The reason why the Royal Physician is objecting to this medicine is because he has never used it before.

But the effect of this medicine has been widely acknowledged by the people.

Minister, do you trust the word of the people more than the word of the finest physician?

I will not allow you to use this medicine!

He knew that I had ordered it and yet he objected?

Yes.

We cannot overturn the objections of the physician and the prince.

Are you suggesting we do nothing?

Your Majesty, the prince may have dug his own grave.

What do you mean?

If we use this opportunity properly, we can frame the prince for treachery.

I don't know if you'll like it. Come and try some.

- Thank you, - Here...!

No need for thank yous! We're like family, after all.

You... you go home now. You must be busy.

I'm not busy, so don't worry!

- I said go home! - I'm really alright.

- Then take care of yourself... nephew. - Oh, thank you!

- No need to come out! - Goodbye!

- Uncle, you've really caught a big one! - Caught what?

You wretched boy, you will never know how much I suffer because of who I am.

- Song Yeon, what do you think will happen? - What?

If the man you loved couldn't be a real man. Like my uncle!

- Don't ask me that. - No, Song Yeon. Answer him.

I don't really know how to read women, so you tell me.

If I tell Maksoon the truth about myself, how do you think she'll react?

How would I know that? Don't ask me.

It's driving me crazy!

I wonder if the prince is alright. I should be there to guard him.

- Haven't you heard? - What?

There's an awful rumor going around the palace.

What rumor?

His Highness wants to be king really badly.

He won't let them use good medicine on the king, and wants him to die quickly!

- What? That's impossible! - Which fool made such a rumor!

Why are you shouting at me? It wasn't me!

You're scaring me!

Why isn't the prince able to have one peaceful day?

I feel so frustrating when this happens.

I have no power to help His Highness. At least you can be by his side.

I'm so ashamed that I cannot do anything for him.

Why are you thinking like that? You were the one that helped him last time.

Excuse me... But is Sir Yi Chun here?

- I think Artist Yi has died. - What?

He contracted a disease and we haven't heard from him. He must be dead.

For us to lose such a genius artist as Sir Yi Chun! What a loss for our great nation!

What did you just say? Genius artist?

- Who? Artist Yi? - Yes.

He was a genius who gave sweet rain to the dry hearts of the young men of Dosung.

Sir Yi...!

What did that crazy fool say?

Although Sir Yi was a bit foolish, he had a good heart. How unfortunate.

I can't believe that he is dead. I am sure he is alive!

If he's alive, he'd be here by now.

Oh, I heard that Park Dae Su was discharged.

- Yes. - Has he healed completely?

No. He needs a bit more treatment.

- Here. - What is it?

It's ointment. They say it helps heal wounds.

Give it to him.

- Why? - Nothing. Thank you.

Song Yeon! Chobi!

- Have you been well? - Oh no!

- What's wrong with her? - Sir Yi, you are alive!

Of course I am. Did you think that I was dead?

Song Yeon, I am like a wet leaf. I cannot be swept away!

Damn it! How could that be?

How can they say that the prince is anxious to be king?

How can they create such an outrageous rumor!

It combined with the incident I caused and is becoming bigger.

Who do you think is behind it?

If I find out who they are, I'll slay them!

You are not capable of slaying them.

- Do you know who they are? - Of course I do.

Where are you going?

I have to fix the problem I caused.

- My Lord. - What is it?

Tutor Hong is requesting your audience.

- Hong Gook Young? - Yes.

- Bring him in. - Yes, Sir.

- What brings you here? - I have come to make you a deal.

A deal? I have nothing to deal with you.

I'm not saying to make a deal with me, but to make a deal with the prince.

What is it? Tell me.

I know how desperate you are, My Lord.

Desperate?

In all honesty, if His Majesty passes away and the prince becomes king,

it will be a big detriment to the No Ron faction.

As you know, it is to my benefit that His Majesty passes away and the prince becomes the king.

But now is not yet the time.

What I am saying is that the prince is not yet ready to be king.

So?

I am saying that it is to both our benefit that His Majesty lives.

You are right. But the prince is the one who is prohibiting the treatment of His Majesty.

And now there are awful rumors regarding that in the palace.

What I want to know is the effect of that medicine.

- Is it really beneficial to His Majesty? - I cannot confirm that.

But even though we are cornered, would we do such an insane thing?

Like you said, if something happened to His Majesty, we would be in trouble.

Would we do anything to cut our Achilles heel?

If we are to make a deal, then shouldn't you offer me something?

Let me persuade the prince.

Like I thought before, you are truly a remarkable man.

Did not His Highness tell you to lie low? Why are you here?

I came to tell him something urgently.

There was something you wanted to tell me?

- Yes, Your Highness. - What is it?

Have you heard the rumors that are going around the palace?

Do I look like someone who fears rumors?

No, but these rumors have been accentuated with the incident I caused and has become big.

Please forgive me.

If that is what you came to say, you may leave.

I will summon you when I need you. You may leave now.

Your Highness, please use the medicine Secretary Jung has recommended.

You...!

If we let things be as they are now, His Majesty may never recover.

So please think of it as a last resort and use the medicine.

I don't want to hear it! How can we trust them?

They are the ones that put His Majesty in this danger.

Their biggest fear is His Majesty's death.

Do you think they will do anything to jeopardize their own goals?

How can I use something that even the Physicians are recommending that we don't use?

According to my sources, the medicine is trustworthy.

The reason why the physicians have rejected it is because it is a newly developed medicine.

If you cannot trust the medicine, at least trust their desperation.

Their goals can only be met if His Majesty survives.

Your Majesty, Secretary Jung is here.

- Let him enter. - Yes, Your Majesty.

What is it?

The prince has approved the use of the medicine!

- Is that true? - Yes.

I have approved the use of the medicine as you wanted, Minister.

We will see if my decision was a good one.

If anything happens to His Majesty,

you and Secretary Jung will be made fully responsible.

- What do you think will happen? - We have no choice but to wait.

- Is there no news from the palace? - Not yet, Your Highness.

- How is he? - They say His Majesty has fallen deeply asleep.

I must go and see him myself.

There is no change in his condition.

- What is it? - Your Highness! Bad news!

Bad news?

After His Majesty drank the medicine, his fever increased and he has lost consciousness!

His Majesty is in critical condition, Your Highness!
