{\a6}~ Episode 36 ~

4
00:00:07,295 --> 00:00:12,732
Pungwolju are obliged to quell
every suspicion with utmost clarity.

5
00:00:13,550 --> 00:00:15,104
The Board of Military Affairs
recently found that...

6
00:00:15,234 --> 00:00:17,681
a significant number of Gaya
refugees inhabits Amnyangju,

7
00:00:17,789 --> 00:00:20,312
the land belonging to
Kim Yushin's clan.

8
00:00:31,162 --> 00:00:32,474
Yushin Rang.

9
00:00:32,954 --> 00:00:35,906
The Gaya refugees who were
forcibly deported from Samnyangju...

10
00:00:36,077 --> 00:00:38,254
not only answered divine command,

11
00:00:38,462 --> 00:00:42,098
but also paid the price of being suspected
to be part of the Gaya Restoration Movement.

12
00:00:48,639 --> 00:00:52,016
How could those refugees
be inhabiting your own land?

13
00:00:52,250 --> 00:00:53,211
Also,

14
00:00:54,094 --> 00:00:55,823
we have information suggesting
the restoration movement...

15
00:00:55,944 --> 00:00:58,295
began its activities
once again from there.

16
00:01:00,503 --> 00:01:03,710
Your lineage is of
strong Gaya ancestry.

17
00:01:04,614 --> 00:01:09,653
Can you explain
what all this entails to?

18
00:01:26,636 --> 00:01:28,155
All those people are doing...

19
00:01:28,532 --> 00:01:31,233
is engaging in farming
on my clan's land.

20
00:01:32,012 --> 00:01:33,856
Is granting jobs to people from
lands with impoverished soil...

21
00:01:34,103 --> 00:01:36,584
so that they will make a living
considered a crime?

22
00:01:53,921 --> 00:01:56,285
Those are lamentable
and unjust insinuations.

23
00:01:57,976 --> 00:01:59,895
All you have is
circumstantial hearsay,

24
00:02:00,064 --> 00:02:01,980
there is no clear evidence
of such malfeasance.

25
00:02:03,032 --> 00:02:05,174
Of course, we have no evidence.

26
00:02:05,775 --> 00:02:10,591
But I verified firsthand the
legitimacy of such circumstantial claims.

27
00:02:12,347 --> 00:02:15,462
Should the blame be laid upon you,
you very well know...

28
00:02:15,604 --> 00:02:19,286
what the consequences would be.

29
00:02:19,648 --> 00:02:22,934
Hence, what do you propose I shall do?

30
00:02:23,354 --> 00:02:25,692
Let us just find a way together.

31
00:02:28,552 --> 00:02:30,848
A way to make you Pungwolju,

32
00:02:30,978 --> 00:02:35,614
and also sweep away these
groundless accusations, that is.

33
00:02:41,685 --> 00:02:43,285
<i>This is a conspiracy!</i>

34
00:02:43,973 --> 00:02:45,830
Think you will be able
to stop his investiture...

35
00:02:46,116 --> 00:02:50,298
out of mere circumstantial talebearing?

36
00:02:50,765 --> 00:02:56,984
However, suspicion and hearsay
are the root of all occurrences.

37
00:02:59,373 --> 00:03:03,919
Can Your Highness prove
Yushin Rang's innocence?

38
00:03:04,138 --> 00:03:06,516
And do you trust him?

39
00:03:08,256 --> 00:03:12,126
Of course, you must have the
utmost confidence in Yushin Rang.

40
00:03:12,256 --> 00:03:16,399
But, never shall you
consider him a mere individual.

41
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,902
From the very start,
Gaya and its refugees...

42
00:03:21,110 --> 00:03:24,201
have proven to be Yushin Rang's greatest
strength and most daunting shortcoming.

43
00:03:24,526 --> 00:03:25,681
Hence, it is not Yushin,

44
00:03:25,759 --> 00:03:29,347
but the power figures gravitating
around him you must reflect upon.

45
00:03:29,464 --> 00:03:32,750
Separating the two
is utterly meaningless.

46
00:03:36,347 --> 00:03:37,863
And that is because, willingly or not,

47
00:03:37,967 --> 00:03:40,539
Yushin Rang shall eventually carry
Gaya's legacy on his shoulders.

48
00:03:40,824 --> 00:03:45,240
He can neither abandon them,
nor can they take to the frontline for him.

49
00:03:46,967 --> 00:03:50,800
So, what are you suggesting?

50
00:03:52,021 --> 00:03:54,748
Should you bring me the lifeless pate
of the restoration movement's leader,

51
00:03:54,826 --> 00:03:57,190
would not that make
all suspicions vanish?!

52
00:04:00,126 --> 00:04:04,620
And how am I supposed
to know who is leading them?

53
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,487
There is a possibility
you might not know.

54
00:04:07,643 --> 00:04:08,598
However,

55
00:04:08,741 --> 00:04:11,598
the best course of action
in dealing with this matter...

56
00:04:11,806 --> 00:04:14,383
is bringing us the head of their leader.

57
00:04:17,345 --> 00:04:18,715
Should you manage to achieve that,

58
00:04:18,819 --> 00:04:22,275
your legacy would be bolstered by
meritorious service even before investiture,

59
00:04:22,405 --> 00:04:27,795
and would not that help foster
your authority as Pungwolju?

60
00:04:33,775 --> 00:04:34,888
Your Highness.

61
00:04:35,736 --> 00:04:37,489
What is all this?

62
00:04:37,619 --> 00:04:40,580
The council raised an objection
against his investiture as Pungwolju?!

63
00:04:43,086 --> 00:04:44,999
Anyone who witnessed
his feats at the contest...

64
00:04:45,269 --> 00:04:47,466
would never allow any objection
to besmirch his achievements.

65
00:04:47,765 --> 00:04:50,869
Even Seokpum Rang could not
utter any opposing words.

66
00:04:51,589 --> 00:04:53,505
It is a matter dealing with my ancestry.

67
00:04:53,945 --> 00:04:57,563
Does that mean Gaya ancestry
shall preclude your investiture?

68
00:05:00,370 --> 00:05:05,193
It is the same situation as when they
deported Gaya refugees to Samnyangju.

69
00:05:06,154 --> 00:05:08,037
This time, it just happens to be
the restoration movement.

70
00:05:08,250 --> 00:05:09,492
Restoration movement?!

71
00:05:10,245 --> 00:05:11,973
Are they aware of those
Gaya remnants' intentions?

72
00:05:12,289 --> 00:05:14,102
It did not seem so.

73
00:05:14,687 --> 00:05:16,843
And neither do they seem to care.

74
00:05:17,050 --> 00:05:23,700
Yes, we once again
fell for their stratagem.

75
00:05:35,739 --> 00:05:38,455
Their hands are completely tied.

76
00:05:38,579 --> 00:05:40,765
And should they attempt to capture
their leader to solve this impasse,

77
00:05:40,869 --> 00:05:43,453
they will lose support
amongst the Gaya descendants.

78
00:05:44,012 --> 00:05:46,648
Should he fail to prove he has no links
to the restoration movement,

79
00:05:46,778 --> 00:05:48,947
then he will never be
proclaimed Pungwolju.

80
00:05:50,635 --> 00:05:51,834
Yes...

81
00:05:52,178 --> 00:05:57,126
It is a lifelong quandary which shall
trail in the shadows of Yushin Rang's path.

82
00:05:57,503 --> 00:06:00,321
He should realize how surrendering
before Your Highness...

83
00:06:00,412 --> 00:06:02,414
would be the most sagacious decision,

84
00:06:02,544 --> 00:06:04,440
but I wonder if he will.

85
00:06:06,882 --> 00:06:09,577
Bereft of acumen they certainly are not,

86
00:06:09,850 --> 00:06:11,005
but people like him are blessed with
too precious a disposition...

87
00:06:11,074 --> 00:06:12,681
to even foment such thoughts.

88
00:06:15,972 --> 00:06:20,220
Hence, we must produce at least
one piece of unquestionable evidence.

89
00:06:21,012 --> 00:06:22,027
Yes.

90
00:06:22,131 --> 00:06:24,207
I entrusted the matter to
that man under Kim Seohyeon...

91
00:06:24,376 --> 00:06:27,295
who used to communicate with us
via carrier pigeons in Iseo County.

92
00:06:27,420 --> 00:06:31,620
So, that informer who started trailing
Kim Seohyeon since he came to Seorabeol?

93
00:06:32,035 --> 00:06:33,035
Yes.

94
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,619
The council deferred the investiture.

95
00:06:39,865 --> 00:06:42,952
Bangso.
They did what?

96
00:06:43,134 --> 00:06:44,536
And what is the reason?

97
00:06:45,718 --> 00:06:48,563
An objection against Milord was raised,

98
00:06:48,654 --> 00:06:50,316
involving his alleged ties
to the Gaya restoration movement.

99
00:06:51,043 --> 00:06:52,407
Restoration?!

100
00:06:53,043 --> 00:06:55,994
- Then, the last time Yushin...
- All right.

101
00:06:56,482 --> 00:06:57,862
You may leave.

102
00:06:58,418 --> 00:06:59,437
Yes.

103
00:06:59,618 --> 00:07:01,644
- Let us go.
- Yes.

104
00:07:09,129 --> 00:07:12,576
I must head to the palace immediately.

105
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,997
Take good care of that edict.

106
00:07:16,103 --> 00:07:17,147
Yes.

107
00:07:17,366 --> 00:07:19,789
Leave it to me.

108
00:07:20,018 --> 00:07:22,003
Accord it your utmost attention.

109
00:07:30,815 --> 00:07:33,017
I shall head for the palace,
so arrange security.

110
00:07:33,153 --> 00:07:33,831
Yes, Your Excellency.

111
00:07:33,935 --> 00:07:36,138
You await here until our arrival.

112
00:07:36,241 --> 00:07:37,091
<i>Yes.</i>

113
00:07:51,708 --> 00:07:53,488
What is it, this time?

114
00:08:25,101 --> 00:08:29,084
He is Wolya, recently adopted by
His Excellency Lord Seohyeon.

115
00:08:29,409 --> 00:08:30,967
Pay your respects!

116
00:08:38,736 --> 00:08:41,773
Once Yushin Rang
is proclaimed Pungwolju,

117
00:08:42,386 --> 00:08:46,090
I shall be in charge of training
the Dragon Flower Guild.

118
00:08:47,274 --> 00:08:49,562
I shall aid our new Pungwolju,

119
00:08:49,794 --> 00:08:55,028
and help make this Hwarang guild
the very best in Seorabeol.

120
00:08:55,507 --> 00:08:58,071
Looks like Yushin Rang
will indeed become Pungwolju.

121
00:08:58,163 --> 00:08:59,170
Seems like it.

122
00:08:59,442 --> 00:09:00,908
It finally feels real.

123
00:09:01,286 --> 00:09:05,494
It is trouble! Trouble!

124
00:09:06,586 --> 00:09:07,995
We are in trouble.

125
00:09:08,180 --> 00:09:10,404
What is the matter?

126
00:09:10,531 --> 00:09:11,813
Yushin Rang...

127
00:09:12,398 --> 00:09:13,788
Yushin Rang...

128
00:09:14,021 --> 00:09:14,928
Yushin Rang what?

129
00:09:15,043 --> 00:09:20,300
At the council, an objection
was raised against Yushin Rang.

130
00:09:20,988 --> 00:09:22,156
An objection?!

131
00:09:22,377 --> 00:09:23,572
And what would be the reason?

132
00:09:23,676 --> 00:09:26,005
He was accused of involvement
with the Gaya restoration movement...

133
00:09:26,130 --> 00:09:29,000
by Lady Mishil's followers.

134
00:09:36,323 --> 00:09:37,945
What is that all about?

135
00:09:38,347 --> 00:09:41,140
If Lady Mishil's side
raised an objection,

136
00:09:41,374 --> 00:09:42,747
it will be no laughing matter.

137
00:09:42,945 --> 00:09:44,101
Say what?

138
00:09:44,226 --> 00:09:46,348
Is that really so?

139
00:09:50,193 --> 00:09:51,774
No...

140
00:09:52,202 --> 00:09:55,683
Whether Yushin had any involvement
with the restoration movement or not,

141
00:09:55,917 --> 00:09:58,345
what would that possibly matter?

142
00:09:58,611 --> 00:09:59,552
Yes.

143
00:09:59,994 --> 00:10:05,267
Is not treason something even mere
circumstantial claims could legitimize?

144
00:10:05,435 --> 00:10:08,189
It is a stratagem
by Lady Mishil's followers.

145
00:10:09,101 --> 00:10:11,291
If I could ever imagine
they would do this,

146
00:10:12,044 --> 00:10:16,317
proclaiming Bojong as the Pungwolju
would have been much wiser.

147
00:10:28,799 --> 00:10:30,342
Mother.

148
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,758
You must be already afflicted by
this ordeal regarding Yushin Rang...

149
00:10:36,901 --> 00:10:38,797
Is anything the matter?

150
00:10:38,914 --> 00:10:42,843
Chunchu left the palace
once again today.

151
00:10:45,168 --> 00:10:46,363
Yes...

152
00:10:47,402 --> 00:10:49,804
He has spent not a
single day in the palace,

153
00:10:50,454 --> 00:10:52,779
and continues to refuse any audience.

154
00:10:54,194 --> 00:10:56,623
Looks like I spoke in vain.

155
00:10:58,350 --> 00:11:00,792
Let us not hasten on this matter.

156
00:11:01,227 --> 00:11:03,309
Is he not just a juvenile, after all?

157
00:11:04,930 --> 00:11:09,530
He grew without the
loving embrace of a mother,

158
00:11:09,789 --> 00:11:11,908
such behavior is only inevitable.

159
00:11:16,570 --> 00:11:19,492
Also, these might be very
powerful and refined nectars,

160
00:11:19,635 --> 00:11:21,713
but they do not inebriate
in the slightest,

161
00:11:22,077 --> 00:11:24,758
and are oft christened as
"elixir of eternal youth."

162
00:11:40,616 --> 00:11:42,319
How does it taste?

163
00:11:42,411 --> 00:11:46,330
I can sense the fragrance of the
water fringes caressing my tongue.

164
00:11:47,465 --> 00:11:49,070
Water fringes!

165
00:11:49,239 --> 00:11:51,343
Indeed they are!

166
00:11:52,769 --> 00:11:57,939
Meseems they mixed flowers and herbs
while creating these nectars.

167
00:11:58,497 --> 00:12:00,043
I would guess...

168
00:12:00,465 --> 00:12:04,575
honeysuckle and chrysanthemums?

169
00:12:06,264 --> 00:12:10,998
How could a juvenile of meager experience
display such keen discernment?

170
00:12:11,258 --> 00:12:14,622
The Sui drench their nectars
in flowery fragrance as well.

171
00:12:15,219 --> 00:12:17,050
Lord Chunchu...

172
00:12:17,193 --> 00:12:20,409
I sense ominous malignance in the air.

173
00:12:20,759 --> 00:12:22,857
Your presence is daunting.

174
00:12:23,201 --> 00:12:24,759
Daunting?!

175
00:12:24,941 --> 00:12:29,019
Only scarce moments we shared together,

176
00:12:29,981 --> 00:12:33,189
but don't we already feel
like seasoned compeers?!

177
00:12:36,215 --> 00:12:39,396
And you cannot ride horses, I hear?

178
00:12:40,329 --> 00:12:42,641
I cannot do so myself.

179
00:12:43,060 --> 00:12:46,966
Instead, I am blessed with
manifold different talents.

180
00:12:47,563 --> 00:12:50,161
I trust it must be the same for you?!

181
00:13:00,174 --> 00:13:01,417
This taste...

182
00:13:01,976 --> 00:13:03,533
Shall I describe it
as the pathway between...

183
00:13:03,669 --> 00:13:05,989
the world of the mortals
and the abode of the gods?

184
00:13:06,300 --> 00:13:11,443
So exotic a sight,
yet so strangely familiar.

185
00:13:11,697 --> 00:13:12,880
<i>Yes...</i>

186
00:13:13,218 --> 00:13:18,556
Like a damsel from lands afar,
dancing in fervent abandon.

187
00:13:26,610 --> 00:13:30,112
At last, I am blessed
with a spiritual compeer.

188
00:13:30,982 --> 00:13:33,277
May you follow me.

189
00:13:44,967 --> 00:13:47,347
Here... Lord Chunchu.

190
00:13:47,467 --> 00:13:48,734
May you enter.

191
00:13:56,446 --> 00:13:59,083
Trust your spiritual compeer.

192
00:14:11,445 --> 00:14:12,797
Raise the curtain.

193
00:14:14,237 --> 00:14:15,836
Yes.

194
00:14:30,870 --> 00:14:32,265
Accord us a smile.

195
00:14:35,524 --> 00:14:37,524
Turn around.

196
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,031
How is she?

197
00:14:47,148 --> 00:14:48,914
Her proportions...

198
00:14:50,028 --> 00:14:51,849
are quite anomalous.

199
00:14:54,271 --> 00:15:00,213
Yes, particularly
the contours of her body.

200
00:15:00,398 --> 00:15:04,200
Where there is no harmony,
beauty is rarely found.

201
00:15:05,812 --> 00:15:07,888
Indeed.

202
00:15:09,009 --> 00:15:10,539
Raise the next curtain.

203
00:15:10,656 --> 00:15:12,018
Yes.

204
00:15:31,161 --> 00:15:32,524
And how about this one?

205
00:15:35,330 --> 00:15:36,992
Quite emblematic.

206
00:15:38,994 --> 00:15:41,511
Yes, methinks I understand
what you mean.

207
00:15:41,615 --> 00:15:44,476
The form of her ears does suggest...

208
00:15:44,632 --> 00:15:47,904
Indeed. For natural beauty
does not bless her...

209
00:15:48,060 --> 00:15:51,216
She is no alluring specimen?!

210
00:15:56,029 --> 00:15:57,422
The next curtain.

211
00:15:57,515 --> 00:15:58,956
Yes...

212
00:16:24,605 --> 00:16:26,178
How is this one?

213
00:16:30,648 --> 00:16:33,685
Will you show me your hands?

214
00:16:42,064 --> 00:16:46,622
And now, will you turn around,
and raise your hair above your head?

215
00:17:12,375 --> 00:17:13,765
Were you looking for me?

216
00:17:15,207 --> 00:17:16,557
Have a seat.

217
00:17:24,350 --> 00:17:28,765
Is the matter mentioned
at the council true?

218
00:17:32,064 --> 00:17:33,583
Speak to me.

219
00:17:34,102 --> 00:17:37,128
I shall not divulge it anywhere else.

220
00:17:39,292 --> 00:17:42,973
It's just that, in more ways than one,

221
00:17:43,570 --> 00:17:46,829
I believe your becoming Pungwolju
would be most meaningful for the Hwarang.

222
00:17:48,340 --> 00:17:52,596
However, your ties to Gaya
are a troublous besetment.

223
00:17:52,816 --> 00:17:55,634
It is a fact many Gaya refugees fomented
the intent of restoring their legacy.

224
00:17:56,167 --> 00:17:59,206
And I am sure such intents will be
connected to the restoration movement.

225
00:17:59,790 --> 00:18:04,790
Is it true those Gaya refugees
settled in Amnyangju?

226
00:18:05,518 --> 00:18:06,553
Yes.

227
00:18:09,392 --> 00:18:11,579
With the promise of no levies,

228
00:18:11,884 --> 00:18:13,653
we let them partake in that territory.

229
00:18:13,925 --> 00:18:15,121
What?

230
00:18:15,736 --> 00:18:17,212
Without compensation?

231
00:18:17,588 --> 00:18:18,666
Yes.

232
00:18:19,276 --> 00:18:23,809
Should such fact be exposed,
it will become evidence.

233
00:18:24,757 --> 00:18:26,147
Why did you do so?

234
00:18:26,277 --> 00:18:28,679
To gain their allegiance.

235
00:18:29,770 --> 00:18:30,965
Allegiance?!

236
00:18:31,095 --> 00:18:33,581
Allegiance to our cause
would strengthen us in number,

237
00:18:33,932 --> 00:18:38,230
and foster our influence
within the Shilla political sphere.

238
00:18:41,709 --> 00:18:44,347
Gaya shall no longer
be brought back to life.

239
00:18:44,685 --> 00:18:47,425
Also, should that even happen,

240
00:18:48,022 --> 00:18:50,815
I do not believe it would
be in our best interests.

241
00:18:51,617 --> 00:18:53,451
As an influential
political power in Shilla,

242
00:18:53,789 --> 00:18:55,238
as a part of this country,

243
00:18:55,511 --> 00:18:58,536
we shall aid Shilla's grandiose dreams
of unification from the frontline.

244
00:18:59,368 --> 00:19:03,368
That is what shall grant survival
to all Gaya descendants.

245
00:19:06,068 --> 00:19:10,090
Hence, should I even fail
to become Pungwolju,

246
00:19:10,532 --> 00:19:13,389
I shall do nothing to
besmirch Gaya's legacy.

247
00:19:29,515 --> 00:19:32,078
<i>Meseems you are no longer
of any use here.</i>

248
00:19:33,186 --> 00:19:35,182
Leave with me.

249
00:19:37,286 --> 00:19:38,784
Arrange our departure.

250
00:19:39,637 --> 00:19:41,620
You contemptible weakling.

251
00:19:43,181 --> 00:19:44,594
Exactly because one's journey
to glory is laden with obstacles,

252
00:19:44,693 --> 00:19:46,438
grandiose achievements lie at its end.

253
00:19:48,088 --> 00:19:49,278
<i>And,</i>

254
00:19:50,914 --> 00:19:53,317
even if you gave your all,

255
00:19:53,551 --> 00:19:59,252
I am not so sure you would
have vanquished Yushin.

256
00:20:03,288 --> 00:20:04,510
<i>Leave?!</i>

257
00:20:07,614 --> 00:20:09,105
<i>Says whom?!</i>

258
00:20:19,638 --> 00:20:20,944
<i>He's quite the specimen.</i>

259
00:20:21,230 --> 00:20:25,178
<i>But being so upright will only
be detrimental to his cause.</i>

260
00:20:25,957 --> 00:20:30,796
<i>Had I known he would give up,
had I been able to make him yield,</i>

261
00:20:31,627 --> 00:20:34,237
<i>I would have never
acted that way myself.</i>

262
00:20:35,731 --> 00:20:38,094
<i>How could I have ever imagined?!</i>

263
00:20:56,748 --> 00:21:00,782
<i>~ Deokil Temple ~</i>

264
00:21:50,389 --> 00:21:52,659
<i>Why did you go to Deokil Temple?!</i>

265
00:21:53,823 --> 00:21:56,672
<i>What were you looking for
inside that box?!</i>

266
00:22:06,101 --> 00:22:07,374
<i>Yushin Rang.</i>

267
00:22:08,766 --> 00:22:09,893
It's you.

268
00:22:11,075 --> 00:22:15,760
We heard about the
objection at the council.

269
00:22:18,695 --> 00:22:20,188
Yushin Rang...

270
00:22:24,007 --> 00:22:25,968
As the leader of
the restoration movement,

271
00:22:27,968 --> 00:22:29,851
I should be apprehended
and handed over.

272
00:22:30,188 --> 00:22:32,500
<i>That is the only way.</i>

273
00:22:33,474 --> 00:22:34,935
It is all we can do.

274
00:22:35,597 --> 00:22:37,636
We cannot give up
on your investiture.

275
00:22:37,766 --> 00:22:39,506
Would not the act
of giving up itself...

276
00:22:40,476 --> 00:22:42,312
be akin to acknowledging
such alleged misdeeds?

277
00:22:42,429 --> 00:22:45,146
That is right. We cannot hamper
our grandiose aspirations for this,

278
00:22:45,250 --> 00:22:47,017
may you make a decision, Yushin Rang!

279
00:22:47,133 --> 00:22:49,328
Are you just like Mishil as well?

280
00:22:52,653 --> 00:22:57,397
Is absolving any and all sacrifices at
the altar of such "just cause" all it takes?!

281
00:22:57,643 --> 00:22:59,786
We told you there is no other way!

282
00:23:00,241 --> 00:23:02,617
Should we be forced
to give up something,

283
00:23:03,163 --> 00:23:05,576
why would it not be what will
force the least sacrifices upon us?!

284
00:23:05,784 --> 00:23:09,810
All the things you will give up on
by adhering to such subterfuges,

285
00:23:10,070 --> 00:23:12,719
don't you realize they
could gather together as one,

286
00:23:12,901 --> 00:23:15,145
and become the cornerstone
of our grandiose aspirations?

287
00:23:15,223 --> 00:23:17,041
We do realize it!

288
00:23:18,002 --> 00:23:19,067
However...

289
00:23:19,638 --> 00:23:22,236
Is that not all we can do,
at the moment?

290
00:23:23,783 --> 00:23:26,878
Think of our greater goals, Yushin Rang.

291
00:23:38,710 --> 00:23:42,386
I shall give up on my
investiture as Pungwolju.

292
00:23:43,022 --> 00:23:44,360
Yushin Rang!

293
00:23:48,255 --> 00:23:50,541
Would not this solve all your quandaries?

294
00:23:51,568 --> 00:23:53,671
Is that not what you wished for?

295
00:23:56,139 --> 00:23:58,551
So, is that all?

296
00:23:58,733 --> 00:24:00,927
All the conclusion you
could come up with entails to.

297
00:24:02,564 --> 00:24:06,337
Yes, you are indeed blessed
with the utmost benevolence.

298
00:24:06,506 --> 00:24:11,237
And I trust Your Highness will eventually
proclaim Bojong Rang as Pungwolju?

299
00:24:14,654 --> 00:24:15,847
<i>However...</i>

300
00:24:17,493 --> 00:24:20,610
I wonder how many people
will accept such decision.

301
00:24:26,338 --> 00:24:30,287
Everyone witnessed what
happened at the contest.

302
00:24:31,079 --> 00:24:38,105
So, will they accept anyone
but myself as their new Pungwolju?

303
00:24:39,010 --> 00:24:41,255
And should Bojong Rang
become Pungwolju that way,

304
00:24:41,569 --> 00:24:43,294
would it legitimize his investiture?

305
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,008
If that is indeed feasible,

306
00:24:48,538 --> 00:24:50,733
I shall gleefully forswear my investiture.

307
00:24:52,095 --> 00:24:54,876
After unfounded insinuations
fueled your decision to oust me...

308
00:24:55,745 --> 00:24:57,967
from the post I rightfully earned
by winning that competition,

309
00:24:58,305 --> 00:25:03,952
I wonder how you will manage...

310
00:25:05,108 --> 00:25:06,771
to deal with the repercussions.

311
00:25:29,841 --> 00:25:33,886
Would that suffice to
deal with the repercussions?

312
00:25:38,766 --> 00:25:40,207
It has vanished!

313
00:25:40,324 --> 00:25:41,402
Vanished?!

314
00:25:41,506 --> 00:25:42,837
What is that supposed to mean?

315
00:25:42,961 --> 00:25:44,585
The edict regarding the levies.

316
00:25:44,692 --> 00:25:46,331
Afraid of concealing it
in the inner house,

317
00:25:46,486 --> 00:25:49,240
I moved it to Munhee's quarters.

318
00:25:49,447 --> 00:25:50,837
<i>May I enter?</i>

319
00:25:51,136 --> 00:25:52,759
Ohh... come on in.

320
00:25:56,970 --> 00:25:59,528
My underling, Bangso,
is nowhere to be seen.

321
00:25:59,622 --> 00:26:00,752
Say what?

322
00:26:02,076 --> 00:26:04,362
Have you checked his quarters?

323
00:26:04,511 --> 00:26:05,332
Yes.

324
00:26:06,063 --> 00:26:08,708
All his kindred have
vanished along with him.

325
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:10,382
What?!

326
00:26:11,291 --> 00:26:12,641
This...

327
00:26:17,401 --> 00:26:20,973
This edict confirming you willfully
reneged to collect levies in Amnyangju...

328
00:26:21,154 --> 00:26:23,297
Well, only circumstantial
evidence as it may be.

329
00:26:25,843 --> 00:26:28,345
You accorded lands to all the refugees
belonging to the restoration movement,

330
00:26:28,514 --> 00:26:30,371
without asking for compensation.

331
00:26:31,384 --> 00:26:34,007
No matter what Yushin Rang's
true intentions were,

332
00:26:34,552 --> 00:26:38,026
would that not imply they
purposefully funded the movement?

333
00:26:53,389 --> 00:26:54,974
How could this happen?

334
00:26:55,617 --> 00:26:58,173
How could that edict
fall into their hands?

335
00:26:58,341 --> 00:27:00,480
Looks like they took it
from our residence.

336
00:27:04,537 --> 00:27:05,895
But...

337
00:27:06,389 --> 00:27:08,817
If they are in possession
of such evidence,

338
00:27:09,869 --> 00:27:12,804
should they not immediately escort you
to the Board of Military Affairs?

339
00:27:13,311 --> 00:27:17,778
Why did they merely show it to you?

340
00:27:19,276 --> 00:27:20,908
From the very start...

341
00:27:21,687 --> 00:27:24,324
they had no intention to do so.

342
00:27:27,153 --> 00:27:31,908
<i>I still have no intention
of becoming a foe of yours.</i>

343
00:27:33,869 --> 00:27:36,253
Then, what else are they scheming?

344
00:27:36,539 --> 00:27:38,085
Whom Mishil wants...

345
00:27:41,033 --> 00:27:44,968
is Yushin Rang.

346
00:27:48,557 --> 00:27:50,020
She wants him?!

347
00:27:54,189 --> 00:27:59,256
<i>And that is what
enrages me even more.</i>

348
00:28:53,310 --> 00:28:54,750
Yushin Rang.

349
00:29:08,374 --> 00:29:13,439
You will have to apprehend Seolji,
as the leader of the movement.

350
00:29:14,981 --> 00:29:17,776
Did he not accept it himself?

351
00:29:19,465 --> 00:29:21,502
I cannot allow that.

352
00:29:24,647 --> 00:29:26,478
There is no other way!

353
00:29:26,595 --> 00:29:28,789
Should we let them take Seolji,

354
00:29:29,208 --> 00:29:31,556
then they will later ask
for someone else,

355
00:29:31,815 --> 00:29:33,491
and that will continue
until they're satisfied.

356
00:29:33,621 --> 00:29:34,673
Yes.

357
00:29:35,348 --> 00:29:36,556
All we need is fulfilling their wishes.

358
00:29:36,660 --> 00:29:37,828
Your Highness!

359
00:29:38,828 --> 00:29:41,712
Do you not realize
what that entails to?

360
00:29:42,958 --> 00:29:45,140
Should we give them Seolji,

361
00:29:45,621 --> 00:29:48,400
it will prove the Gaya refugees'
involvement with the movement.

362
00:29:49,478 --> 00:29:51,686
<i>And, if I still fail to yield,</i>

363
00:29:52,608 --> 00:29:54,530
<i>they will take all of
Amnyangju's refugees...</i>

364
00:29:54,750 --> 00:29:57,270
and one by one
accuse them of treason.

365
00:29:57,841 --> 00:29:59,906
Should I still
resist the urge to submit,

366
00:30:01,032 --> 00:30:02,621
one by one...

367
00:30:03,635 --> 00:30:06,376
One by one, they will
force demise upon my people,

368
00:30:06,701 --> 00:30:09,636
by falsely accusing them of treason.

369
00:30:13,454 --> 00:30:16,870
May you acknowledge
my people as yours, Your Highness.

370
00:30:18,519 --> 00:30:21,480
Are you going to
give up on your people...

371
00:30:21,562 --> 00:30:23,792
every time the situation demands it?

372
00:30:24,441 --> 00:30:25,636
Then...

373
00:30:26,284 --> 00:30:29,093
Must I give up on you?

374
00:30:31,744 --> 00:30:33,937
Just because I never told you so,

375
00:30:35,458 --> 00:30:38,272
think my feelings for you are
but feeble voices in my soul?

376
00:30:44,090 --> 00:30:49,079
This is something
you must decide upon.

377
00:30:51,326 --> 00:30:56,599
I hope you are not taking the crown
you aspire for that lightly.

378
00:30:57,417 --> 00:31:01,512
Hope that you don't think
of caring for your people...

379
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,642
as mere relief and a
rule free from tyranny.

380
00:31:09,292 --> 00:31:10,611
Rulers,

381
00:31:11,247 --> 00:31:13,234
even if it may bring them harm,

382
00:31:13,767 --> 00:31:15,572
must always protect their people.

383
00:31:16,533 --> 00:31:17,987
<i>And what the people want...</i>

384
00:31:18,764 --> 00:31:22,842
is a ruler who will protect them,
even at the cost of manifold lives.

385
00:31:25,348 --> 00:31:27,206
That is what I shall do,

386
00:31:28,621 --> 00:31:31,250
and what I wish for you
to do, Your Highness.

387
00:31:33,744 --> 00:31:35,133
And me?

388
00:31:37,031 --> 00:31:38,471
What about me?

389
00:31:42,108 --> 00:31:43,381
It is a path...

390
00:31:45,407 --> 00:31:47,225
you must walk on alone.

391
00:32:28,653 --> 00:32:30,666
I was looking for you.

392
00:32:36,177 --> 00:32:38,965
On my way here,
I chanced upon your parley.

393
00:32:41,112 --> 00:32:45,433
Know why they who gain people's
hearts shall gain the world?

394
00:32:47,069 --> 00:32:48,686
Because the people
that ruler will gain...

395
00:32:49,231 --> 00:32:52,023
are the cornerstones
who will build his reign.

396
00:32:52,452 --> 00:32:54,906
<i>Heroes are not born.</i>

397
00:32:55,335 --> 00:32:58,218
They are made so by
those surrounding them.

398
00:32:59,062 --> 00:33:00,660
What you told Her Highness...

399
00:33:00,777 --> 00:33:02,971
might not have met with
her approval, but is right.

400
00:33:03,270 --> 00:33:05,569
And, arduous as it may be,
it is the righteous path.

401
00:33:06,348 --> 00:33:07,296
But,

402
00:33:08,048 --> 00:33:13,491
what is the other option
Her Highness mentioned?

403
00:33:18,413 --> 00:33:20,575
What else can you do?

404
00:33:38,072 --> 00:33:39,644
<i>Your Highness.</i>

405
00:33:43,727 --> 00:33:45,191
<i>What is the matter?</i>

406
00:33:45,827 --> 00:33:47,515
Was there anything wrong?

407
00:33:52,031 --> 00:33:53,005
I...

408
00:33:56,894 --> 00:33:58,460
I...

409
00:34:00,359 --> 00:34:01,372
Yes.

410
00:34:02,073 --> 00:34:03,566
What is wrong?

411
00:34:05,270 --> 00:34:07,060
I am not like Mishil.

412
00:34:10,735 --> 00:34:12,044
No...

413
00:34:14,446 --> 00:34:16,797
I must not be able
to become like her.

414
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,576
Aigoo...
You're killing me.

415
00:34:21,498 --> 00:34:23,388
What are you talking about?

416
00:34:25,589 --> 00:34:26,972
I could never...

417
00:34:29,414 --> 00:34:31,310
let Yushin Rang go.

418
00:34:34,439 --> 00:34:35,972
I could not even...

419
00:34:37,232 --> 00:34:38,972
confess...

420
00:34:40,788 --> 00:34:43,447
my devotion for him.

421
00:34:46,733 --> 00:34:48,434
Just...

422
00:34:50,031 --> 00:34:52,070
Just like that...

423
00:35:31,340 --> 00:35:33,742
Are you really planning to do so?

424
00:35:33,911 --> 00:35:34,859
Yes.

425
00:36:17,885 --> 00:36:19,547
<i>Is Princess Deokman...</i>

426
00:36:20,612 --> 00:36:23,275
<i>really blessed by divine providence?</i>

427
00:36:24,768 --> 00:36:27,138
<i>Was I mistaken about her?</i>

428
00:36:28,787 --> 00:36:29,839
<i>Or...</i>

429
00:36:30,488 --> 00:36:31,994
<i>from the very beginning,</i>

430
00:36:32,176 --> 00:36:34,682
<i>did the heavens have other plans?</i>

431
00:36:35,851 --> 00:36:37,254
<i>Is it Yushin?</i>

432
00:36:38,289 --> 00:36:39,539
<i>Yushin?!</i>

433
00:36:58,521 --> 00:37:00,565
Did you appease your mind?

434
00:37:02,007 --> 00:37:03,783
Concerned about me,

435
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,189
did you conceal the book elsewhere?

436
00:37:08,604 --> 00:37:10,643
You went there again?

437
00:37:11,903 --> 00:37:16,098
Then, is that book mine?

438
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:18,799
Or is it not?

439
00:37:21,111 --> 00:37:22,663
Wretched fool.

440
00:37:24,585 --> 00:37:26,871
How could you end up like this?

441
00:37:45,143 --> 00:37:47,884
Did Uncle Misaeng really say that?

442
00:37:48,067 --> 00:37:48,936
Yes.

443
00:37:51,806 --> 00:37:53,663
And what did Misaeng say?

444
00:37:53,806 --> 00:37:56,778
That Chunchu showed the utmost
predilection for Boryang,

445
00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:02,529
and clamored Bojong and
Lord Seolwon to arrange a meeting.

446
00:38:02,737 --> 00:38:03,750
What?!

447
00:38:04,049 --> 00:38:05,815
<i>{\a6}*Daughter of Bojong
and Princess Yangmyeong</i>

448
00:38:04,049 --> 00:38:05,815
Boryang*?!

449
00:38:06,049 --> 00:38:10,106
Yes, that is what Uncle told us.

450
00:38:11,032 --> 00:38:14,574
If Misaeng said so, I am
sure it was indeed the case.

451
00:38:17,314 --> 00:38:18,963
Of all people, Boryang?!

452
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,639
As if I did not have
comely daughters myself.

453
00:38:21,781 --> 00:38:25,275
Right...
So, where is Misaeng?

454
00:38:25,543 --> 00:38:28,587
He once again left with Lord Chunchu.

455
00:38:29,533 --> 00:38:31,314
Does Lord Chunchu enjoy his presence?

456
00:38:31,496 --> 00:38:33,288
According to Daenambo,

457
00:38:34,495 --> 00:38:36,691
they call each other
"spiritual compeers."

458
00:38:37,351 --> 00:38:39,483
<i>What compeers...</i>

459
00:38:44,822 --> 00:38:48,173
Few are the wonders
comparable to women and drinks,

460
00:38:48,289 --> 00:38:53,203
but if it is merriment what you're
looking for, this has no peers.

461
00:38:53,385 --> 00:38:54,606
And what would that be?

462
00:38:54,723 --> 00:38:56,710
You shall soon witness on your own.

463
00:40:22,333 --> 00:40:25,114
I never brought you here either, did I?

464
00:40:25,220 --> 00:40:27,296
It's "that" kind of place.

465
00:40:30,673 --> 00:40:31,790
<i>After you.</i>

466
00:40:32,050 --> 00:40:33,089
Here.

467
00:40:35,803 --> 00:40:37,533
The other two's tablet?

468
00:40:37,676 --> 00:40:39,715
They are my guests.

469
00:40:39,902 --> 00:40:41,468
How dare you block their way?

470
00:40:42,130 --> 00:40:43,546
Still...

471
00:40:45,935 --> 00:40:47,953
Don't you realize whom you are facing?

472
00:40:48,184 --> 00:40:51,637
- It's not that...
- If it's not, then it's all right.

473
00:40:55,533 --> 00:40:57,767
Here. Let us enter.

474
00:41:13,473 --> 00:41:14,941
Here... This way.

475
00:41:15,136 --> 00:41:18,904
- Milord, it's you!
- Indeed! How have you been?

476
00:42:44,999 --> 00:42:48,429
It is quite simple.

477
00:42:48,666 --> 00:42:53,389
The numbers one to seven are
carved twice each on this Juryeongu.

478
00:42:53,597 --> 00:42:55,595
We put two dice inside that bowl...

479
00:42:55,751 --> 00:42:57,452
I think I might understand how it works.

480
00:42:58,183 --> 00:43:02,478
Are you not betting on the
numbers between two and fourteen?

481
00:43:02,732 --> 00:43:04,401
A genius is amongst us!

482
00:43:04,683 --> 00:43:07,649
How could you and I be so alike?

483
00:43:09,285 --> 00:43:11,830
<i>Then, let us give it a try.</i>

484
00:43:14,138 --> 00:43:17,963
I will bet on the five.

485
00:43:18,144 --> 00:43:20,028
<i>{\a6}*Numbers with bets on the board</i>

486
00:43:18,144 --> 00:43:20,028
<i>~ 7 ~ 6 ~ 5 ~ 4 ~*</i>

487
00:43:21,140 --> 00:43:22,463
<i>~ 4 and 1 ~</i>

488
00:43:22,579 --> 00:43:23,073
<i>Five.</i>

489
00:43:23,151 --> 00:43:23,917
<i>Five!</i>

490
00:43:24,190 --> 00:43:25,540
<i>It is five!</i>

491
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:28,852
How could you guess it
right from the very start?

492
00:43:28,982 --> 00:43:32,483
You're blessed by providence.
Nice start, Lord Chunchu!

493
00:43:33,815 --> 00:43:37,412
Then, what will you choose next?

494
00:43:38,633 --> 00:43:40,282
<i>~ 9 ~</i>

495
00:43:41,329 --> 00:43:43,341
<i>Yes. I will...</i>

496
00:43:43,995 --> 00:43:46,068
go for eight, this time.

497
00:43:52,702 --> 00:43:54,167
<i>~ 4 and 5 ~</i>

498
00:43:55,415 --> 00:43:57,355
- Nine.
- Nine!

499
00:44:01,706 --> 00:44:05,120
How could providence be so stubborn?!

500
00:44:08,263 --> 00:44:12,889
Here... Meseems nine could be
the lucky number today.

501
00:44:13,006 --> 00:44:15,876
I shall bet on the nine.

502
00:44:16,291 --> 00:44:17,840
<i>~ 12 ~</i>

503
00:44:28,272 --> 00:44:30,268
Where did Yeomjong go?

504
00:44:30,828 --> 00:44:32,402
<i>{\a6}*Old Ulsan</i>

505
00:44:30,828 --> 00:44:32,402
To the harbor in Gaeunpo*.

506
00:44:32,856 --> 00:44:34,067
All right.

507
00:44:35,445 --> 00:44:36,677
Then...

508
00:44:38,408 --> 00:44:40,729
I will have to count on you.

509
00:44:41,495 --> 00:44:43,171
Never you worry.

510
00:44:45,694 --> 00:44:49,821
That fellow over there,
with the thick eyebrows.

511
00:44:49,938 --> 00:44:51,692
He must win at all cost.

512
00:44:51,857 --> 00:44:53,250
At all cost.

513
00:44:54,385 --> 00:44:55,077
Yes.

514
00:44:55,220 --> 00:44:56,466
He will.

515
00:45:06,004 --> 00:45:07,805
<i>~ 5 and 7 ~</i>

516
00:45:09,272 --> 00:45:10,675
Twelve!

517
00:45:15,181 --> 00:45:16,143
<i>And how...</i>

518
00:45:16,260 --> 00:45:18,299
How could this be possible?!

519
00:45:19,909 --> 00:45:20,662
This...

520
00:45:20,805 --> 00:45:23,273
This is but your first time doing this,

521
00:45:23,377 --> 00:45:25,805
how can one be blessed
with such providence?

522
00:45:28,010 --> 00:45:30,374
Remarkable!

523
00:45:31,763 --> 00:45:35,556
Then, allow me to try for twelve myself.

524
00:45:37,387 --> 00:45:41,005
You're not telling me
you will repeat yourself...

525
00:46:34,446 --> 00:46:36,920
Turn... turn!

526
00:46:37,114 --> 00:46:40,322
Why did it stop?!

527
00:46:55,318 --> 00:46:58,036
How could the master enter this...

528
00:47:03,639 --> 00:47:04,698
<i>Seven!</i>

529
00:47:23,734 --> 00:47:25,565
Fourteen!

530
00:47:49,505 --> 00:47:50,765
<i>Eleven!</i>

531
00:47:58,265 --> 00:48:00,304
<i>Remarkable indeed, Lord Chunchu.</i>

532
00:48:00,694 --> 00:48:02,375
It's a ruse.

533
00:48:02,545 --> 00:48:03,895
I know.

534
00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:07,687
<i>Twelve!</i>

535
00:48:13,364 --> 00:48:17,169
<i>Lord Chunchu, is that not excessive?</i>

536
00:48:21,975 --> 00:48:23,937
What is Yushin doing?

537
00:48:24,507 --> 00:48:27,962
Both he and Her Highness Princess
Deokman remain in their quarters.

538
00:48:28,366 --> 00:48:32,454
You're not telling me
she has not heard of it yet?!

539
00:48:33,025 --> 00:48:35,337
I am sure she did.

540
00:48:36,084 --> 00:48:38,129
What Yushin said is right.

541
00:48:38,610 --> 00:48:41,233
If we are to stop his investiture,

542
00:48:41,479 --> 00:48:44,285
we need to make this edict public.

543
00:48:46,025 --> 00:48:51,337
However, if we do so,
we will never gain his allegiance.

544
00:49:01,261 --> 00:49:02,648
Your Highness.

545
00:49:03,408 --> 00:49:08,154
Hearing you address this humble
servant with such reverence...

546
00:49:08,375 --> 00:49:10,414
whelms me with awe.

547
00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:12,596
<i>However,</i>

548
00:49:13,306 --> 00:49:18,082
there is only one way
you will gain my allegiance.

549
00:49:20,845 --> 00:49:22,212
What would that be?

550
00:49:22,872 --> 00:49:27,356
Slaying me, and doing what
you wish with my cadaver.

551
00:49:30,433 --> 00:49:35,096
For the only thing of mine
you can have is my lifeless corpse.

552
00:49:36,070 --> 00:49:38,628
I shall never join your cause alive.

553
00:49:43,881 --> 00:49:45,923
It is to gain your allegiance.

554
00:49:46,832 --> 00:49:48,666
Those are the shackles
she is trying to force upon us,

555
00:49:48,770 --> 00:49:50,731
so that we will join her cause.

556
00:49:51,056 --> 00:49:52,636
I am aware of that.

557
00:49:53,491 --> 00:49:58,925
Since you do know, we shall
not request anything from you.

558
00:50:00,315 --> 00:50:04,678
I entrusted it to you,
so solve this all on your own.

559
00:50:19,221 --> 00:50:21,174
Your Highness.

560
00:50:23,402 --> 00:50:25,304
All of what Yushin Rang said...

561
00:50:25,862 --> 00:50:27,525
is right.

562
00:50:31,179 --> 00:50:36,011
I was the one who chose this path.

563
00:50:39,595 --> 00:50:40,698
And once again,

564
00:50:40,997 --> 00:50:45,231
what he said is right.

565
00:50:48,581 --> 00:50:50,643
Just to gain him,

566
00:50:51,653 --> 00:50:55,604
I cannot abandon my people.

567
00:50:56,890 --> 00:51:02,191
And should I even do that,
I would never gain him.

568
00:51:04,629 --> 00:51:08,256
On the contrary,
he would abandon me for that.

569
00:51:09,048 --> 00:51:10,438
I know that.

570
00:51:11,045 --> 00:51:12,059
I am well aware.

571
00:51:12,215 --> 00:51:13,526
Anyhow...

572
00:51:15,115 --> 00:51:16,643
Your Highness.

573
00:51:19,266 --> 00:51:24,416
You must let your heart guide you.

574
00:51:28,130 --> 00:51:31,715
Let your heart see...

575
00:51:32,742 --> 00:51:34,800
<i>and just listen,</i>

576
00:51:37,050 --> 00:51:39,268
and see again.

577
00:52:10,899 --> 00:52:12,496
Shall I announce you?

578
00:52:16,899 --> 00:52:18,171
Yushin Rang.

579
00:52:18,340 --> 00:52:21,089
You have been standing here
for quite some time.

580
00:52:25,297 --> 00:52:26,764
Yushin Rang...

581
00:52:30,137 --> 00:52:31,425
Don't.

582
00:53:32,770 --> 00:53:34,023
And you...

583
00:53:35,256 --> 00:53:37,581
I seek audience with Her Highness.

584
00:53:39,919 --> 00:53:41,906
Have you made your decision?

585
00:53:47,573 --> 00:53:50,217
He just left?

586
00:53:50,698 --> 00:53:52,542
Without your announcing his presence?

587
00:53:53,918 --> 00:53:57,009
He did not even allow me to do so.

588
00:54:00,240 --> 00:54:08,590
He stood out there for long,
and then just left.

589
00:54:11,128 --> 00:54:13,432
He did not allow you
to announce him.

590
00:54:14,003 --> 00:54:15,029
Yes.

591
00:54:15,902 --> 00:54:18,159
And after standing
out there for long...

592
00:54:19,717 --> 00:54:21,133
Yes.

593
00:54:56,576 --> 00:54:58,029
You are back.

594
00:54:58,990 --> 00:55:01,406
So, nothing to report?

595
00:55:02,731 --> 00:55:04,782
Lord Munno is here.

596
00:55:09,183 --> 00:55:10,728
<i>Let us enter.</i>

597
00:55:30,730 --> 00:55:32,418
<i>Did I force a long wait upon you?</i>

598
00:55:33,314 --> 00:55:34,366
<i>You're back.</i>

599
00:55:39,128 --> 00:55:41,204
So you went to Gaeunpo Harbor?

600
00:55:41,950 --> 00:55:42,983
Yes.

601
00:55:44,118 --> 00:55:46,710
<i>{\a6}~ Yeomjong ~</i>

602
00:55:44,118 --> 00:55:46,710
Pilseon made his return from Goguryeo.

603
00:55:47,035 --> 00:55:49,386
He brought back a lot of
new intelligence as well.

604
00:55:49,933 --> 00:55:51,660
Shall I tell you right away?

605
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:53,634
Let us take our time.

606
00:55:54,197 --> 00:55:55,426
First,

607
00:55:57,062 --> 00:55:59,855
<i>we must complete the
Geography of the Three Kingdoms.</i>

608
00:56:03,292 --> 00:56:04,655
Complete?!

609
00:56:05,582 --> 00:56:06,486
Indeed.

610
00:56:07,357 --> 00:56:10,984
We must write the final volume,
and complete it.

611
00:56:12,163 --> 00:56:16,230
But, did you not say you would await
a better time to complete it?

612
00:56:16,620 --> 00:56:20,126
Meseems that book's keeper
is now amongst us.

613
00:56:21,454 --> 00:56:22,732
<i>Keeper?!</i>

614
00:56:23,563 --> 00:56:26,213
<i>You were the one who compiled that.
Keeper?!</i>

615
00:56:28,654 --> 00:56:30,434
Is he one we can trust?

616
00:56:31,044 --> 00:56:33,437
Think of all the efforts
we went through for that book.

617
00:56:33,554 --> 00:56:35,736
And now you're entrusting
it all to this person?

618
00:56:36,924 --> 00:56:41,190
He is conscientious to a fault,
displaying the utmost honesty.

619
00:56:43,113 --> 00:56:44,996
<i>Seems like he might resemble you.</i>

620
00:56:47,794 --> 00:56:49,048
He does not.

621
00:56:49,632 --> 00:56:51,905
Mine is mere simple-minded honesty,

622
00:56:52,293 --> 00:56:55,553
but it could never move people's hearts.

623
00:56:57,793 --> 00:57:02,293
Also, for the sake of
prideful vim and personal glory,

624
00:57:02,579 --> 00:57:05,483
I turned my back on the world,
escaping reality.

625
00:57:06,431 --> 00:57:09,197
But he is not like me.

626
00:57:09,496 --> 00:57:10,548
Then?

627
00:57:11,807 --> 00:57:14,350
Even if drenched in
foul and nefarious waters,

628
00:57:14,455 --> 00:57:17,785
he shall still protect
his clan and his people.

629
00:57:32,603 --> 00:57:34,175
Yushin R...

630
00:57:38,780 --> 00:57:40,608
Yu...Yushin?!

631
00:57:42,452 --> 00:57:45,971
Does he deserve all this
confidence of yours?

632
00:57:52,504 --> 00:57:57,727
<i>What is the other option
Her Highness mentioned?</i>

633
00:58:00,127 --> 00:58:02,309
What else can you do?

634
00:58:06,683 --> 00:58:08,686
I asked you what.

635
00:58:10,153 --> 00:58:12,270
Kneel before them.

636
00:58:14,515 --> 00:58:15,439
No...

637
00:58:16,458 --> 00:58:18,637
If groveling is what they ask,
crawling before them.

638
00:58:18,944 --> 00:58:21,295
Or if they want me to
lick their feet, to do so.

639
00:58:22,659 --> 00:58:24,126
Such trifling abasement...

640
00:58:25,266 --> 00:58:27,610
means nothing to me.

641
00:59:13,701 --> 00:59:21,352
Witnessing such resolve,
I decided to gamble on him.

642
00:59:25,962 --> 00:59:26,884
<i>No...</i>

643
00:59:27,404 --> 00:59:31,283
It is something I would have
never concocted myself.

644
00:59:48,958 --> 00:59:50,399
What does this stand for?

645
00:59:51,267 --> 00:59:53,867
That I am begging you to spare me.

646
00:59:56,399 --> 00:59:57,971
Spare you?!

647
00:59:59,321 --> 01:00:00,386
Yes.

648
01:00:04,870 --> 01:00:07,581
I recall heeding these words before.

649
01:00:08,023 --> 01:00:09,633
That if I wished for your allegiance,

650
01:00:09,919 --> 01:00:11,568
I could only gain it
from your lifeless corpse.

651
01:00:12,464 --> 01:00:14,854
And that is still what I believe.

652
01:00:16,114 --> 01:00:17,451
But?!

653
01:00:17,841 --> 01:00:22,633
That was back when you deported
the Gaya refugees to Samnyangju.

654
01:00:23,386 --> 01:00:24,347
<i>But this time,</i>

655
01:00:25,218 --> 01:00:27,541
would you not accuse them of treason,

656
01:00:27,724 --> 01:00:30,140
and bring demise upon them?

657
01:00:30,413 --> 01:00:31,308
Yes.

658
01:00:31,685 --> 01:00:32,568
Likely.

659
01:00:32,724 --> 01:00:35,464
I can cope with my own demise,

660
01:00:36,308 --> 01:00:39,802
but I shall never accept innocent lives
to be sacrificed because of me.

661
01:00:40,641 --> 01:00:41,675
Hence?!

662
01:00:42,142 --> 01:00:45,220
- "Spare me..."
- Yes.

663
01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:49,064
I now am ready to
acknowledge my place.

664
01:00:52,736 --> 01:00:58,152
And whatever does not belong to me,
I plan to abandon it.

665
01:01:03,495 --> 01:01:04,510
Therefore,

666
01:01:05,822 --> 01:01:08,653
I now wish to bask
in your powerful embrace.

667
01:01:19,452 --> 01:01:21,206
My embrace?!

668
01:01:21,500 --> 01:01:22,880
My embrace!

669
01:01:24,015 --> 01:01:26,633
Had I been blessed by perpetual youth,
I would embrace you myself!

670
01:01:26,732 --> 01:01:29,214
How lamentable indeed!

671
01:01:32,952 --> 01:01:34,163
Then...

672
01:01:35,593 --> 01:01:38,903
As a symbol of the
affinity you and I share,

673
01:01:39,267 --> 01:01:42,384
would you not join our clan's
Yeongmo in conjugal ties?!

674
01:02:00,259 --> 01:02:03,886
Yes. I will.

<i>Were it not for you, how would I have
ever thought of completing this book?</i>

683
01:02:47,422 --> 01:02:50,227
Arrange the necessary
for my completion.

684
01:02:51,227 --> 01:02:53,617
Still, hearing you will entrust it
to someone you have confidence in...

685
01:02:55,342 --> 01:02:58,021
How is Chunchu?

686
01:02:58,242 --> 01:03:00,800
<i>This guest kept saying
he was looking for you.</i>

687
01:03:01,125 --> 01:03:02,047
Where is he?

688
01:03:02,216 --> 01:03:04,586
- Your mother...
- Your Highness.

689
01:03:05,430 --> 01:03:07,053
Meseems you have time to squander.

690
01:03:07,222 --> 01:03:08,495
You alone will suffer.

691
01:03:08,599 --> 01:03:11,560
Any news of Bidam and Lord Munno?

692
01:03:11,637 --> 01:03:13,170
Does he not enjoy
Her Highness's support?

693
01:03:13,287 --> 01:03:14,767
What are you prattling about?!

694
01:03:14,897 --> 01:03:17,130
And he said he would
serve me as his ruler...

695
01:03:17,441 --> 01:03:18,597
It does not feel like you.

696
01:03:18,727 --> 01:03:20,376
Are you really the Bidam I knew?

697
01:03:21,449 --> 01:03:23,119
What are you trying to say,
Your Highness?
