Rakuten Viki - A Viki Original [Grand Prince]

- Episode 19 -

Will he... really come?

Eun Seong has promised me.

He promised me that he'd return Myung to our embrace today.

If his uncle's plan fails...

The worst is yet to come. The King right now

cannot lay his hands on his nephew.

There were conditions for being approved by China. He must receive the abdicated King.

If the Chinese envoys come and go again, won't his life be in danger?

At the very least, we can make some time.

Within that time, we need to find out what we can do.

Would any boat stop here?

To go Grandfather's tomb we have to cross the river.

According to the information from the capital, this is where we can get across.

Soon, the daughter from the Seong household will enter the palace.

Go and wait for them at the gate, so as to avoid palace talk.

Yes, Your Highness.

Queen Dowager, could I go with you?

If you do, people will be more suspicious.

I will carefully bring him.

I'll trust you with it, Court Lady Jang.

This is carp stew that you mentioned at the kitchen.

Carp helps with getting pregnant and protect the mother during pregnancy.

I prayed to the moon yesterday

and I prayed for the baby.

The moon? They say that the moon has a lot of female energy, so it causes daughters to be conceived!

Oh, I didn't know that.

We slept together on the day that the Office of Divination chose for us.

Since the doctor hasn't confirmed it, it doesn't mean that there's no possibility.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Boo Deul, there is something you must do for me.

Please go ahead, Your Majesty.

Find a woman who gave birth to the most sons in this capital.

- Bring a kitchen knife from that place. - A knife?

They say it's a superstition, but we must do whatever we can.

Yes, Your Majesty. I'll bring whatever they say is good.

You should enjoy your royal meal first.

Hasn't this gone bad?

No, there is no way. This is the best quality.

Your Highness, today you will return to the palace again.

Will I be able to meet my mother?

She will be so happy and say that you have grown so much.

You know, if everything goes well today,

let's go hunting.

You want to?

Just us. Like the past.

In the past, it was because we had nothing to eat. It wasn't for fun.

Anyway, let's go.

You can do that for me.

You can go on a hunt with me.

Yeah. Let's go hunting.

You, Gi Teuk, and me. The three of us.

I'm sorry

for taking you from your hometown and making you suffer like this.

It's fine. I followed you because I wanted to.

Looking at it now, I never asked you.

Why would you have left your hometown and followed me... Followed us?

I didn't want to be alone.

People from Joseon thought I was dirty and spit at me.

The Hulli people called me a mutt and didn't include me.

My father was the chief, but he wouldn't look my way.

I don't know if it's true, either.

Among all the people I met after being born, you have been the warmest, Hwi.

Being alone again was scary to me.

I will not let you be alone.

For the rest of life, I'll have you as my younger sister

and after this all ends, I'll take responsibility and send you off to marry someone.

Please, get in.

Please stay safe.

When people return, please hide them well.

After I see that His Highness is safe, I will come back and help.

Thank you, for all this time.

This isn't the end.

You're saying that as if we'll never see each other again.

Okay.

I'll be going.

Let's go.

What are you doing?

Ae Rang, you should pack your things, too.

Prepare a swift and strong horse, too.

Go and borrow a ship from the Seo River port,

so that we can leave the capital whenever.

Are you already fleeing?

If the revolt fails, do you think we'll survive?

Since it'll be hard to survive in the capital, we will have to flee.

Your Majesty! Please escape!

It's the group of traitors! Protect the King!

We must protect the King!

Your Excellency! Your Excellency!

Your Excellency!

Minister!

Your Excellency!

Take care of the royal carriage. Take the King to a safe place!

If I follow the royal carriage, everyone will leave to fight elsewhere.

Go! Leave this place to me.

- Let's all leave. - Okay.

What is that?

What army is that?

Who are those people?

Are they on our side?

They're that way.

This wasn't planned.

Everyone, scatter! Run away!

What about you?

- Hwi is in danger. - Then, we must go, too.

If you go, you will easily die.

Gosh, I can't even go.

Leader, what Roo Si Gae is saying is right.

You're asking to die if you run into an elite troop!

I don't have any regrets now.

We barely escaped from death thanks to someone.

If we die for His Highness, I'd have no regrets.

Are you two trying to act cool right now?

You're making me look bad! Leader!

- Let's go! - Let's go!

Stop.

Brother, please come out.

It's a trap!

Grand Prince Jin Yang has caught on.

His Highness! The Palace is in danger!

Nice to see you, Grand Prince.

I was doubting it, but you really were alive.

Today, we will really kill you today, Your Highness.

These are all traitors.

Catch them!

Did you already know such a situation would occur today?

How could the Minister of Defense already know and have come with an army?

Do not worry about it. The King is going to be safe.

Since the Ministry of Defense and the Captain of Royal Guards already prepared for this,

wouldn't that be the King's orders?

He will be somewhere safe.

Then, we should all return to the palace.

Even if something happens outside, we should be figuring it out inside.

Your Excellency, get up!

Right, right, right.

Go! Go and protect His Highness!

Hurry!

Go to the palace, quickly! Quickly!

You should go first.

I'll follow you from behind.

Roo Si Gae!

Roo Si Gae!

♪ Believing and believing ♪

Deok Man.

Ho Chi!

♪ Living and living ♪

♪ In eternal darkness ♪

No!

Let's go.

How come you did not go to the Royal family tomb?

Because I was informed that there will be a conspiracy to kill me.

If so, you should have cancelled the royal procession and bring in the traitors.

Why did you just send an empty carriage?

Who's most likely to be made the next King after they've killed me?

They would probably bring my dear nephew back to the palace.

Are you trying to catch Prince Seungpyung?

I plan to round up all the rebels red handed...

and at the same time, catch Prince Seungpyung when he comes back here.

You really are wise, Your Majesty.

We can't greet the Chinese Envoy empty handed.

When that young thing comes here, you take care of him. Because I can't trust Queen Mother.

Nor can I let him go to his mother.

Leave it to me, Your Majesty.

I will not let anyone take him away.

What's going on? Why is the King in the palace?

Looks like they sent a fake King to the royal tomb.

Looks like the first stage has failed.

So we have no choice but to make the next move like we were instructed.

Why are you surprised?

Why wouldn't we be, when the King who should be elsewhere is in the palace?

What's wrong? Did you come back half way because you were ill?

Because I was informed that there will be a treason.

In order to catch the rebels on the site,

I sent out the royal entourage and stayed behind to protect the palace.

Why didn't you inform such an important matter to me?

The counterattack should be done as secretively as the mutiny.

The counterattack should be done as secretively as the mutiny.

If the report of treason is true

the rebels are going to die today.

Did you know of this?

That traitors were plotting to kill me?

I'm sure you would've told me if you knew.

Because no parent would ever kill their child.

I'm someone who risked her own life for her child.

Are you speaking the truth?

Therefore, you too should strive to save your bloodline.

Since there's treason, it's dangerous both inside and outside the palace.

Guard the Queen Dowager's Palace with your life

and keep the two ladies safe.

I wish to see the Queen Dowager.

An insignia for permission to pay respect to royalties.

Who's inside the palanquin?

He's a child from the Queen's private house.

Because the Queen Dowager is lonely

she wants to spend time with the children from her private home.

I didn't expect to see you here today.

It seems you didn't expect to see me here either.

Move.

My lady.

Welcome, my dear nephew.

I was waiting.

Don't startle His Highness.

Can't you see he's trembling in fear?

Thank you... for bringing him to me.

I never expected you to give me such a big present.

Do you think I brought him here for you?

I know you've been deceiving me for the sake of today.

But look what happened in the end.

Thanks to you, I was able to find Prince Seungpyung that I wanted desperately.

Ultimately, this uprising was of benefit for me.

Just wait.

I will catch all the rebels

and show you their wretched end.

It's not over yet.

Today will be a very very long day.

Escort Prince Seungpyung to Queen's quarters.

My Queen will be waiting for him.

Take the lady from the Seong family and Eunuch Park to the Secret Pavilion.

There are still more things I need to hear from them.

Yes sir!

Let go of me! I will go to my mother!

Where is my mother? Let go!

Welcome, my nephew. We have waited greatly for you.

What was your plan?

Were you trying to kill me while I was on my way to the tomb

and restore Prince Seungpyung?

Or, is Eun Seong still alive as the rumors suggest,

and you are wishing to install him as the new King?

Who in the palace knew about this?

Even in Queen Dowager's Palace,

did they know?

It has been a long time since Grand Prince Eun Seong died.

We were just

trying to get back at the late Grand Prince Eun Seong's enemy.

We wanted to follow through with Grand Prince Eun Seong's will.

We were trying to return the throne back to the abdicated King, who had been treated unjustly.

You asked for the Queen to be dethroned and you wanted to take the spot.

You deceived me that way.

Do you feel like you were wrongfully treated?

Are you angry?

You have deceived the people and betrayed the royal family.

Not to mention numerous court officials under you.

And yet, you are angry about me deceiving you once?

Now, tell me the truth.

Is Eun Seong alive?

Lady. I am okay.

Do not worry about me!

Park Eunuch!

Is this okay?

Lady. Do not give in.

He threatens people by bringing pain to those who are close to them.

Do not let his cruelty bring you down.

I will die happily!

Park Eunuch!

Okay, if dying is your wish, I'll grant it for you.

Isn't it me who you want to kill?

Lady!

What is it that you want to know?

Alright, I'll tell you everything.

Do you wish to know the truth?

I will have to tell you the truth myself.

Whether Eun Seong is alive or not,

the traitors who caused an incident on the way to the tomb have died.

The Ministry of Defense wanted to get rid of all the traitors, so he brought an army with him.

The people will rise up again.

Even if they all die,

the wishes of those who lost their lives today are not going to die.

You are a King who has sold lands to barbarians and killed your relatives.

The people will not serve anyone like a King who kills his own nephew.

Everyone will kneel in front of me.

I will see them begging for me to spare their lives!

This country is mine.

You are just insisting stubbornly while being ignorant to everything.

Your Majesty! A messenger who was from the revolt today has arrived.

Your Majesty, we were attacked by the rebels just before the river crossing,

but with the help of Minister of Defence and the Chief of Palace Guards, we were able to overwhelm them.

The Chief of Palace Guards are on the hunt for every one who got away.

Raise the security in and out of the palace and bring me the head of the rebel leader.

Yes, Your Majesty!

You will become fearful,

since there are survivors.

[Viki Ver] TV Chosun E19 Grand Prince -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

There's been a rebellion. When the head of the investigation agency comes with his troops, please open the gate for him.

My job is to secure the gates. Tell him to look after the security outside of the palace.

He needs to add extra strength inside the palace.

When he arrives I will send the message inside and wait for a royal order.

The King sent Prince Seungpyung to the Queen's quarters.

And took the Lady of Seong family to the secret pavilion.

Your Highness, what about my Myung? What happens to him?

I have to meet with the King. If Lady Seong,

who is protected Prince Seungpyung, gets hurt... That can't happen.

Your Highness, I will also go with you.

Please wait. I will bring Myung.

Your Majesty, you cannot leave your palace today.

I need to meet the King.

I will send a message saying you are looking for him.

- I will go myself. - No, Your Highness.

Move aside. You dare try to harm the mother of the King?

I am in a hurry, so do not block my path.

The King is still inside the palace. What happened?

- Our plan was exposed. - Our plan to get the King away from the palace,

and restore the former King on the throne has failed.

It's time for all out war.

We tried to get the King away from here to reduce military casualty.

I understand your desire not to kill your own blood relatives,

but we have to put our lives on the line, if you want to clear the path for the future.

Let's go. We will not fail now.

What is your choice now?

The conspiracy has failed and all the traitors are dead.

Our choice was already decided yesterday.

We did not expect to succeed when we entered the palace.

Even if we fail, it is a path we must take.

Did you really have to get involved in this?

If only you had waited quietly, even if you were caught up in the conspiracy.

There could've been a way for you to escape.

A person like you will never understand.

There are people who wish to die with others instead of surviving by themselves.

The desire of one heart who's willing to die to keep her love alive.

I am the one who has succeeded!

History will record victories.

The winner in history does not get determined in our lifes!

In a day long after our days, the people will find out.

That you were the one who killed his brother and pushed your nephew from the throne.

And that there were those who did not give up until the end, not making any compromises!

Those who tried to correct the dynasty.

Is the path Eun Seong walks on the only right path?

What exactly is the love between you two anyway!

Walking together on the right path.

Proposing to live well together is not love.

Did you think the struggle to change for me was love?

When I thought Eun Seong had died

I thought leaving you alone was my punishment.

Now I understand.

Killing you first and giving you as a present to Eun Seong

will be the greatest pain for him!

Lady.

I wanted to kill Eun Seong

and keep you alive.

Killing you and leaving Eun Seong alive

you two will be the greatest punishment for everyone.

Stop it right now!

The lady is blameless. I asked her to bring Prince Seungpyung to me.

Did you know about it?

Did you know about all of it?

Eun Seong didn't plan an assassination.

So what you are saying is... you knew Eun Seong was still alive?

While you were out,

he wanted to come to the palace and restore the former King.

That's a way to kill me, is it not?

Without the throne, is there only death for you?

I will take all of the blame.

Do not expand the death of the innocent,

by brandishing your sword about.

I even killed my uncle with my own hands.

How can you be this cruel?

To push your son into the corner.

Are you asking me to kill my own mother with my own hands?

This is the Head of the Security Do Jeonggook. Open the gates!

Please protect the palace from outside.

Because of the attack of the royal procession by the rebels,

we've been placed on the highest security order. We must keep the gates closed.

The Chief of Palace Guards would have issued an order. Open the gates!

Unless you get an order from me, do not open the palace gates.

I will send someone to the King's quarters to receive a royal order.

Open the gates! It's a King's order I said!

It's the standard proceedure to keep the gates closed in a state of alert, I will not move without a royal order.

Heaven's order is the royal order!

Do not open the gates. They are traitors!

Open the gates! Real traitors are inside the palace.

You take half of the troops

you take the rest and protect the gates.

The Chief of Palace Guards and the Minister of Defence will attack.

Yes, sir.

- What's happened to the former King? - He's been moved to the Queen's quarters.

Chief Scholar's daughter would have brought him in to the palace.

Grand Prince Jin Yang took the lady to the Secret Pavillion along with Eunuch Park.

Please go ahead. We will take the Grand Prince Jin Yang and recover the former King from the Queen's pavilion.

I am leaving it to you.

Even if you are a mother, if your son is a King,

you cannot do things as you wish.

The crime of attempting to dethrone a King!

It's something I cannot forgive even if you're my mother.

- Please understand. - Your Majesty.

- Take her away! - Yes, Your Majesty!

I will take Lady Seong with me.

Do you still not grasp the situation?

You are no longer in a position to give me orders.

She holds contempt for me and sided with the traitors in order to get rid of me.

Even if this woman gets sliced by this sword,

she cannot say anything.

- Your Majesty. - Slay me first.

Your Highness!

He even killed his own brothers. What couldn't he do to his mother?

First kill your mother.

Say that you're sorry.

Say that you did wrong!

Why aren't you giving me the chance to become a good King?

It isn't your spot to take!

Ever since you started being greedy for that spot, your life got messed up.

You have messed our whole royal family up!

Mother!

I know of your talents that could've made you a King.

Had you been born as the first son, everyone would've looked up to you

and you would've become a strong, healthy King.

But! The lieges and the people

do not treat you as a King.

It's because you rose to the throne in an improper way.

So you were alive?

Since I have people to protect, I cannot die.

So it has become like this.

If I don't kill you myself, this fight will never end.

♪ Believing and believing ♪

♪ In a life together ♪

Give up, brother.

You have never once won against me.

This time will be different

Since you have made me stronger!

- Give me? - Give up what?

- The throne? Or your woman? - You can't have any of them!

You can't slay me. You will just hesitate until the end!

You cannot win over me. By practicing at a shooting range,

or learning in a hunt is not good enough.

I have cut down countless enemy troops in actual battles.

You cannot stop my bloody sword!

Stop!

♪ Believing and believing ♪

♪ In a life together ♪

Take him to the Secret Pavilion.

♪ In eternal darkness ♪

Your Highness. You must escape. It's a rebellion.

What about the King?

The Grand Prince Eun Seong is alive.

He is fighting with the King as we speak!

Come here, you need to be with your aunt.

Come here!

Just kill me.

I never wanted to hurt you

not even for a moment.

Repay your sins by living. That is your punishment.

Aren't you trying to be the King now?

Do you believe everyone's trying to live like you?

To wriggle when being stepped on.

To have a desire to rise up when being looked down on. To have greed towards what you want. All of that is what makes someone a person!

I have tried to understand you.

I thought about it again and again.

It's normal to feel grudge when hurt and become ambitious when humiliated, but still.

A person makes their own choice in the end.

When Yeon Hee died at a young age...!

That was an accident!

You should have acknowledged your wrongdoing and begged for forgiveness!

When Uncle was encouraging improper behavior by your side...

You should have stayed away from him and protected your family!

When our dying older brother trusted you with the young Crown Prince,

you should've paid great, genuine attention to his will!

Even if you coveted your brother's lover, you should've restrained yourself and suppressed it!

That's what a human should have done!

Do you not have desires?

Is there no dirt on your hands?

I can see everything clearly.

I can see your true self underneath all of your hypocrisy and your act.

You are right.

I have envy and jealousy inside me.

I am fearful of people finding about the many ugly sides of me.

But I am trying hard to suppress it.

I hide it because I am human.

Does it disappear just because you suppress it?

Does it disappear just because you try to cover it up?

When you got everything you wanted

did you think you had become another person?

There was a time when I was tricked by your sophistry.

I also wrongly had sympathy for you.

Your life! Your place!

You alone made it come to this.

Ugh!

We will arrest all servants and officers who looked after my hyungnim,

and replace them all with our own people.

Minister of Defence will be here shortly.

Yes, Grand Prince.

Have you prepared the declaration to the ministers?

Please go to the Queen's Pavilion and protect the former King.

I will give you military escort.

I understand.

Please send Do Jeonggook at the Queen's Pavilion to the palace gate.

What about the others? Where is Roo Si Gae?

Please stay with the Queen Mother.

As soon as things are under control I will come there.

You are to go to the palace gates.

I will take the former King to the Queen's Mother's pavilion.

I understand.

I'm the Chief Palace Guards, open the gates.

We're under the royal order to keep the gates closed due to a rebellion.

We are here after suppressing the rebellion.

We have to go inside and protect the King. Open the gates.

Once the gates have been ordered closed, no one can go inside.

Go and get another royal order.

I am the Minister of Defence and the brother in law of the King.

I want to get inside and see the Chief of palace guards,

what is the reason for you not opening the gate?

What happened to the palace guards? Why are the gates being guarded by the military officers?

Are you not the rebels?

Open the military storage room and bring out the equipment.

Military equipment.

Are you going to attack the palace?

The rebels got into the palace.

Even if we have to demolish the gate, we have to protect the King.

Hurry and go!

Yes, sir!

With what authority, would you open the military storage room?

You move one step and we will slay you all.

Grandmama!

Your Majesty!

Please give back, my grandson.

The King gave me the responsibility of protect Prince Seungpyung.

The era of Grand Prince Jin Yang is over.

You think this is your time now that Grand Prince Eun Seong has come back live?

The world has changed.

The throne has been restored to the former King, you will have to vacate the Queen's pavilion.

Where is the King? My King?

You are finally ruining the path of the King?

You and your Grand Prince Jin Yang's greed has brought on your ruin.

Until we decide on the punishment for the King,

you are under house arrest at the Queen's pavilion.

Queen Mother, you cannot do this to the King and me.

Do you get it now?

The Queen's pavilion you've loved so much for so long is now your jail.

Grand Prince Eun Seong.

How in the world.

I've come back to the palace with the former King.

All of you listen to the order from the Queen Mother.

To all ministers, we have proof that Grand Prince Jin Yang took over the Kings position by making a secret deal with the Jurchens.

The former King, Lee Myung will be restored to the throne.

All ministers should attend the court and restate your loyalty to the restored King.

Anyone who sides with Grand Prince Jin Yang will be labelled a traitor and will be ruined for three generations,

and punished in the harshest manner possible.

Who are you calling traitors?

That Grand Prince Eun Seong is

the traitor!

Your... Excellency.

This is something that has come about with reason at the Queen Mother's pavilion.

We will be receiving an Envoy from China.

We have stablize the throne as soon as possible

and show the power of unity to them.

That Chief Secretary....

You sly bastards, who lived a high life under the shadow of our King.

You will label them traitors over night?

Who's the traitor?

As someone who wrote the traitorous declaration, caused a rebellion and destablised the country,

and entrapped innocent people,

are you still so shameless?

Roo Si Gae!

Don't touch her. She is my person!

I understand your obedience but this is not loyalty.

The King has already been adjudged and descended from the throne.

He's been dethroned waiting for punishment.

Bring the King here, if you don't want to see her die.

Put away the sword now!

Let go of Roo Si Gae.

Bring the King here!

Get them! Slay them!

Roo Si Gae. Roo Si Gae. Roo Si Gae!

Roo Si Gae.

Roo Si Gae. Roo Si Gae!

Roo Si Gae. Roo Si Gae!

~Grand Prince ~ ~ Next Episode Preview ~

Your Majesty, right now, you have to protect your life.

Even if I die, win or lose, I have to finish it in the palace.

We got the Minister of Defence but lost the Queen.

You must have been upset about a lot of things by me.

I will pay you back one by one.

Did something happen to Hyungnim.

He is waiting for you at the Main Pavilion.

He's escaped from the Secret Pavilion?

He's looking for blood in the end.

Step down from the throne.

It is no longer your place to be.

But you know that already. A brother like me...
