King Gwanggaeto, The Great Conqueror.

- =Episode 41=-

Arrest the crown prince of Goguryeo and Cheongun right now.

Yes, sir.

Whose order is it to arrest me?

Look here.

Who needs an order to arrest a criminal?

We just have to arrest a criminal for what he did.

- =Damdeok=- I came to see the emperor.

Tell him I'm here right now.

You!

You tried to murder the emperor.

How dare you ask to see him?

Listen!

The emperor will prove my innocence.

He won't be seeing you.

Arrest him right now!

Make way for the emperor!

Stop!

=Murong Chui =-

Get down on your knees and bow nine times.

Crown prince!

Stop it!

The Goguryeo crown prince isn't a criminal yet.

Your Majesty!

We will find out who the criminal is soon.

Bring him.

Yes, Your Majesty.

- Bring him. - Yes, sir!

=Song Pil

Why did you come to see me?

Tonight, your men are going to try to kill all the Goguryeo migrants in prison.

What?

My brother will come tomorrow to prove his innocence.

The real culprits behind all this

will not want Sagal Hyeon and the Goguryeo migrants to meet.

They will try to kill the prisoners.

Are you saying my men are trying to kill me?

They probably tried to defame the Goguryeo crown prince using your life.

Your majesty, please watch the prison.

If something that shouldn't happen does, you'll know what I'm saying is true.

I could punish you right now for making false accusations.

Aren't you afraid for your life?

You could never do that.

I married your son for friendly relations between Goguryeo and Houyan.

If anything happened to me, you will be held responsible for everything.

You will be seen as the emperor who betrayed an agreement.

The crown prince of Goguryeo also told me to tell you.

If anything happens to me after now, he will know you were involved, too.

It wasn't them.

Why do you say that?

I remember the scar on his hand and his face.

It wasn't them.

The people who went to the migrant's village weren't Sagal Hyeon and Cheongun.

That has been proven now.

The emperor declares that the Goguryeo crown prince is innocent.

Take the prisoners back to prison.

Yes, sir!

What do you mean there is no proof?

It has been proven that it wasn't you.

Your Majesty!

It is true that someone poisoned the food to kill the Goguryeo migrants.

But whoever did that disappeared and we don't know who was behind it.

We did find that general Fengba went to the prison several times.

He is being investigated at this time.

- =Yangyou=- He is being investigated at this time.

You're not going to hand over the real culprit?

I cannot let you shake up the foundation of this country.

It has to do with the status of Houyan.

I guess this is all I can expect from you.

You will have to take full responsibility.

I'd like you to focus all your forces on finding my wife.

Send all the soldiers you can and find her.

Do it.

Also, release the Goguryeo migrants.

They tried to kill me.

Nobody can do that.

They will be executed!

You can't do that.

Their treason was for survival.

Why did you give such a cruel migration order only to Goguyeo people?

You can only punish them after you set things straight.

Until my wife is found and the Goguryeo migrants settle down,

this incident will not be settled.

Doyeong! Doyeong!

They got me.

They got me.

I should have made them pay for losing you even if it meant battle.

I'm such an incapable husband.

So incapable.

Doyeong.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Doyeong.

Doyeong!

Crown prince.

Are you alright?

I hope you're alright.

=Doyeong =-

Let's go.

This will keep the both of us safe.

The crown prince will protect us.

Don't be afraid, my baby.

Why isn't Houyan providing soldiers?

They should arrive soon.

They promised to provide as many soldiers as possible with general Weiyuan.

=Yeon Salta= That won't be enough.

We have to focus on finding her ourself.

Do it.

Yes,crown prince.

This belongs to Doyeong.

Search this area well.

We have find Doyeong.

I'm sure she's alive.

She has to be.

Yes, crown prince.

Doyeong.

=Houyan royal palace=

Were you behind this?

What are you going to do?

The Goguryeo crown prince knows your weakness.

You can't say this is a failure.

Ooh.

The prime minister gave up the crown prince's life?

Yes, Your Majesty.

The prime minister is planning a rebellion.

The Goguryeo court is in chaos.

The Goguryeo crown prince will be driven out of the court because of this.

It was planned by general Fengba.

Give this secret message to Damdeok at the right time.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, why...

It will lead them to fight.

Damdeok won't forgive the prime minister for sending this.

This message will make the two of them fight more fiercely.

Fool.

Your attitude toward me is different now that your brother is free.

Give it to me.

Yes.

A contagious disease causes chills, fevers and red spots.

It spreads quickly, so nobody wants to go near anyone who has the disease.

This is what the migrants used to paint the red spots.

Why are you telling me this?

Do you still not trust me?

Take a look at yourself.

When you plan something in the future,

be sure it is not excessive and there is a just cause for it.

This is a warning for your sake.

I hope this is the last time.

Please make an effort for the friendly relations to work.

When you plan something in the future,

be sure it is not excessive and there is a just cause for it.

I hope this is the last time.

Please make an effort for the friendly relations to work.

- =Gungnaeseong, capital of Goguryeo=-

It's time.

Are you ready?

=Gae Yeonsu= At this rate, we won't be able to avoid another battle.

The king of Goguryeo is willing to go to war to save the crown prince.

The people are afraid there will be another battle.

It will be hard for Goguryeo to rise again.

Goguryeo isn't Iryeon's country.

It is ours.

We can't let Goguryeo have a dark future because the king loves his son.

We can't leave the future of Goguryeo to Gyerubu anymore.

We have to open up a new future for Goguryeo.

- =Mo Su=- I will abide by your wishes.

I will abide by your wishes.

We will abide by your wishes.

- =Yeon Dobu=- I will, too.

Now that we're one, let's open up a new future for Goguryeo.

Yes, prime minister.

=Ko Un's trade guild, Zhongsan, Houyan=

Do Gwang.

=Ko Un= What brings you here?

Did something happen to my father?

He has been framed for colluding with Houyan spies.

He is being suspected of being behind what happened to the crown prince.

He could be accused of treason.

Treason?

He doesn't want you to return to Goguryeo until this is all cleared up.

It sounds like he wants you to take refuge for a while.

This could ruin entire family.

Are you sure it's a misunderstanding?

What?

I asked you if you are sure that it's a misunderstanding.

Of course.

The prime minister might have been hostile to the crown prince,

but he is a loyal servant of Goguryeo.

Why would he plot treason?

He was really insulted in court.

He was still in shock from losing Doyeong.

When he was accused like a criminal, he showed tears.

My father?

Yes.

He said nothing should happen to you.

He said you must not be involved in any of this.

I have to see the crown prince.

Wait.

- Wait. - Master!

What did you said?

You heard correct.

The emperor was worried.

He said you should return to Goguryeo as soon as possible.

We sent an envoy to let Goguryeo know about the situation here.

They gave up your life even before we found out all the facts.

I feel sorry for you.

Crown Prince You can't believe everything.

There must be a reason for it.

Crown prince! Crown prince!

Crown prince!

Crown prince!

General Mo Duru.

I guess messengers came to confirm what I said.

I'll leave you then

Crown prince!

What is it?

What brings you here?

Crown prince The prime minister is plotting treason.

What?

Treason...

The prime minister is really plotting treason?

Yes, crown prince.

The prime minister is.

Crown prince, your marriage to her daughter could have all been part of the ploy.

He's still can't control his greed for his ambitions.

He's stirring up the country.

How dare him?

His Majesty's life is in danger.

We have to rush back to Goguryeo.

Yes, crown prince.

Master. Master.

Master!

What do you think?

Has father really become a traitor?

Master...

No.

This has to be a ploy by Houyan.

The crown prince shouldn't believe them like this.

He wouldn't let the Houyan people play him so easily.

Are you doubting your father?

Are you?

He did make some excessive statements, but I don't think he'd plot treason.

I want to believe that.

Master.

I have to go and see for myself.

I have to find out who's behind this and clear up any misunderstandings.

- Master. - No!

You'll be in danger in Goguryeo.

I have to go.

- Master! - Ko Un!

Doyeong, I can't believe you disappeared like this.

Doyeong, where are you?

Defense minister.

Yes, prime minister.

=Yeongung, Gungnaeseong= Get control of the Central Army in Gungnaeseong.

When we implement our plan.

we must not let a word or a single soldier out of Gungnaeseong.

Yes, prime minister.

Mo Su, unite public sentiment.

Yes, prime minister.

Make sure everyone knows that Damdeok's actions in Houyan

are putting Goguryeo in danger.

Spread a rumor that if Damdeok becomes the king,

The country will become a bloody battleground again.

Yes, sir.

Yeon Dobu.

Yes, prime minister.

Take control of the scholars at the Royal Academy.

They won't be easy to control, then...

They must all be eliminated.

Any obstacles must not be allowed to live.

They are the future of Goguryeo.

If they can't be controlled, lock them up.

We'll need many talented people when our plans are complete.

Use Ko Jin.

He is respected by all the scholars at the academy.

He is the oldest son of commander Ko Mu.

He is Gyerubu and royalty.

He won't side with us easily.

Find a way.

I will try.

There are many forces against us.

They have many soldiers, too.

Our plans can only succeed if we have public sentiment to back us.

We have to have the king under our control.

Accuse Gye Pil and Ko Chang of treason.

We can take the king saying we're protecting him from them.

Goguryeo's Royal Palace

- Report. - Yes, sir.

Let's go.

What?

=Hwang Hoe= Go and tell Ko Chang right now.

There is something going on at the palace.

Yes, sir.

Is anyone outside?

Order all Cheongun to come to the palace armed.

What?

There is a group of soldiers headed to the palace.

We have to surround the palace and protect His Majesty.

Yes, sir!

Sir.

What do you mean unknown soldiers are coming to the palace?

I had some men watch the prime minister.

They saw soldiers headed towards the palace.

The prime minister must have ordered them.

If they take His Majesty, things will get out of control.

Let's hurry.

Yes.

Let's go.

- =Near the king's quarters=-

Stop!

What's going on?

You said you saw soldiers.

Yes, there were at least a thousand.

Then...

Arrest them all.

Arrest all the traitors.

Oh...

Surrounding the king's quarters with soldiers is treason.

Arrest them all.

What did you say?

It's a trap.

I'll take over here.

You will have to go protect his Majesty.

But...

That's the only way right now.

If they capture us, His Majesty will become their hostage.

Go now!

Okay.

Come on!

Attack!

They fell for the bait easily.

They've been watching us.

What about the other soldiers?

They're already on the move.

Everything has to be taken care of tonight.

Tomorrow will be the first day of a new Goguryeo led by you.

Move!

Hurry! Hurry!

What's going on?

Why so many soldiers?

How should I know?

How would I know?

- =Gye Pil's home=-

How dare you come here and cause such violence?

You are being arrested for treason.

What?

- =Gye Pil=- What?

- =Gye Pil=- Treason?

Who gave such an order?

You'll find out soon.

You!

Arrest him.

Out of the way!

- =Iyeong=- Let go!

- =Iyeong=-

- =Iyeong's home=-

What's going on?

It must be a ploy by the prime minister.

What?

The prime minister?

- =The king's quarters=-

Stand back.

We have to protect His Majesty.

I said stand back!

Your Majesty, it's Hwang Hoe.

Your Majesty.

What's going on?

The prime minister accused Cheongun and Ko Chang of treason.

What?

- =King Iryeon=-

Yes.

Are you saying the prime minister started a rebellion?

Yes, your life is in danger.

We must get out of here.

My queen, we have to go. Quickly!

Let's go.

Is there a way out?

The palace has been surrounded.

Take His Majesty.

I'll make it look like I'm taking him.

You have to stay with them.

What?

It's alright if we die, but not you.

You must survive and protect His Majesty.

Your life is just as valuable as mine.

Please.

- Please. - Please.

Oh...

We received military positions and were treated like people for the first time.

We have no more regrets.

Please give us a chance to give our lives for His Majesty and the crown prince.

Please give us a chance.

Find them.

You must find them.

You must divide the soldiers.

Be sure to survive.

Yes, sir!

Your Majesty, please be safe.

- Please be safe. - Please be safe.

Find them!

There's the king!

Get him!

Get him!

Get him!

We must capture him.

Arrest him!

You will be punished.

You little...

They must be nearby.

Search the area.

Okay.

Prime minister!

Prime minister!

Where is the king?

We lost him.

What?

How can you lose him with all those soldiers?

Well...

Please calm down.

They couldn't have gotten far away.

The success of our plan depends on capturing the king.

Use all the soldiers and find him.

Search all the Gyerubu homes and find him no matter what.

Yes, sir.

Prime minister.

What is it?

Damdeok was released.

What do you mean?

They just released him?

If he must be killed, I'll have to do it myself.

Prime minister. I hope none of this is true.

Please don't make me kill the father of the woman I love.

Prime minister...
