1
00:00:40,286 --> 00:00:42,589
Your Imperial Majesty,
you cannot bestow a rank on her.

2
00:00:43,923 --> 00:00:47,093
{\an8}A mere court lady does not deserve it.

3
00:00:48,194 --> 00:00:49,729
{\an8}How could you say that?

4
00:00:50,530 --> 00:00:52,465
{\an8}She is pregnant
with His Imperial Majesty's child.

5
00:00:53,633 --> 00:00:56,403
The least she deserves
is the rank of Concubine.

6
00:01:01,474 --> 00:01:02,776
What is wrong?

7
00:01:02,842 --> 00:01:03,943
Pull yourself together!

8
00:01:04,644 --> 00:01:05,845
What are you waiting for?

9
00:01:06,079 --> 00:01:07,414
Call the physician!

10
00:01:11,184 --> 00:01:12,585
<i>I wonder if she is all right.</i>

11
00:01:13,053 --> 00:01:14,954
Please make up your mind.

12
00:01:15,255 --> 00:01:17,957
Yes. We will wait for your command.

13
00:01:18,358 --> 00:01:20,427
<i>I hope it is nothing serious.</i>

14
00:01:20,527 --> 00:01:21,594
Your Imperial Majesty.

15
00:01:22,028 --> 00:01:23,596
Are you listening to us?

16
00:01:25,231 --> 00:01:26,232
Yes.

17
00:01:27,534 --> 00:01:29,636
So, what is going to happen?

18
00:01:29,736 --> 00:01:30,970
What are you talking about?

19
00:01:31,304 --> 00:01:33,573
We are waiting for your decision.

20
00:01:36,176 --> 00:01:39,079
Well, I will leave it up to you two--

21
00:01:39,145 --> 00:01:40,346
-Pardon?
-Your Imperial Majesty!

22
00:01:44,584 --> 00:01:45,985
Golta, are you there?

23
00:01:46,553 --> 00:01:48,922
-Get me some cold water.
-Yes, Your Imperial Majesty.

24
00:01:49,189 --> 00:01:50,189
Your Imperial Majesty.

25
00:01:50,223 --> 00:01:52,959
Only over my dead body
will you bestow a rank on her.

26
00:01:53,393 --> 00:01:54,427
Mark my words.

27
00:02:03,803 --> 00:02:04,803
Your Imperial Majesty.

28
00:02:05,205 --> 00:02:07,640
You do not need to care about
what the Empress thinks.

29
00:02:08,675 --> 00:02:11,644
You should proclaim Park
as your concubine. Do you understand?

30
00:02:19,953 --> 00:02:22,122
She must think I am feeble.

31
00:02:22,956 --> 00:02:24,324
How dare she look down on me?

32
00:02:27,127 --> 00:02:28,161
Empress Dowager,

33
00:02:28,561 --> 00:02:31,030
you messed with the wrong person.

34
00:02:31,831 --> 00:02:32,831
You will soon

35
00:02:33,666 --> 00:02:35,535
shed tears of blood.

36
00:02:39,372 --> 00:02:40,507
<i>I cannot believe her.</i>

37
00:02:41,241 --> 00:02:42,775
<i>How dare she try to lecture me?</i>

38
00:02:43,943 --> 00:02:46,546
<i>I will make her beg me for her life.</i>

39
00:02:51,851 --> 00:02:52,952
Goodness.

40
00:02:54,254 --> 00:02:56,122
The two of them

41
00:02:56,789 --> 00:02:59,692
will drain all my energy.

42
00:03:00,093 --> 00:03:02,595
Let me prepare some decoction
to help you restore your energy.

43
00:03:02,695 --> 00:03:03,763
There is no need to.

44
00:03:05,798 --> 00:03:06,798
But...

45
00:03:10,837 --> 00:03:11,837
You know...

46
00:03:12,772 --> 00:03:16,609
Can you find out what happened to the one
who fainted in the archery yard?

47
00:03:17,010 --> 00:03:18,010
Your Imperial Majesty,

48
00:03:18,511 --> 00:03:20,613
do you have feelings for her
by any chance?

49
00:03:21,814 --> 00:03:23,283
Feelings for her?

50
00:03:24,150 --> 00:03:26,452
Do not ever say that again.

51
00:03:27,954 --> 00:03:30,056
The Empress will go nuts if she hears it.

52
00:03:30,190 --> 00:03:32,559
Then why do you take an interest
in such a lowly girl?

53
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:34,961
I mean...

54
00:03:35,295 --> 00:03:38,765
Like I said, she reminds me of the guy
who saved my life back in Goryeo.

55
00:03:39,766 --> 00:03:43,970
When I see her,
I feel like I can finally breathe again.

56
00:03:44,270 --> 00:03:45,270
In that case,

57
00:03:45,705 --> 00:03:48,274
how about making her serve you here?

58
00:03:49,809 --> 00:03:52,812
Are you saying that I can make her work
at the Emperor's palace?

59
00:03:53,012 --> 00:03:55,415
The maids at the Emperor's palace
have easier work and get paid more.

60
00:03:55,615 --> 00:03:57,584
There are many maids
who want to work here.

61
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,922
It would make her so happy.

62
00:04:03,089 --> 00:04:04,824
She will be greatly touched

63
00:04:05,425 --> 00:04:07,293
by your kindness.

64
00:04:08,428 --> 00:04:10,730
Good. You should take care of it.

65
00:04:13,533 --> 00:04:16,269
She will be greatly touched
by my kindness?

66
00:04:20,907 --> 00:04:21,907
<i>Your Imperial Majesty!</i>

67
00:04:25,078 --> 00:04:26,079
Your Imperial Majesty.

68
00:04:27,714 --> 00:04:29,882
Are you taking good care
of the ornament I gave you?

69
00:04:31,651 --> 00:04:32,785
Of course, Your Imperial Majesty.

70
00:04:33,186 --> 00:04:36,656
I will never forget your kindness.

71
00:04:37,123 --> 00:04:39,826
It is nothing to make a fuss about.

72
00:04:41,494 --> 00:04:42,595
Please do not say that.

73
00:04:42,929 --> 00:04:47,934
I will stay loyal to you
even if my bones are crushed to pieces.

74
00:04:51,204 --> 00:04:54,440
Stay loyal to me,
but do not have your bones crushed.

75
00:04:54,607 --> 00:04:56,643
Your grace is beyond measure,
Your Imperial Majesty.

76
00:04:57,877 --> 00:04:59,712
Your grace is beyond measure,
Your Imperial Majesty.

77
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,389
Your grace is beyond measure,
Your Imperial Majesty.

78
00:05:10,923 --> 00:05:12,959
Your grace is beyond measure,
Your Imperial Majesty.

79
00:05:19,132 --> 00:05:21,668
It would have been great
if she really was Seung-nyang.

80
00:05:25,204 --> 00:05:27,774
I wonder how he is doing.

81
00:05:49,395 --> 00:05:50,930
Hello, sir.

82
00:05:51,864 --> 00:05:53,333
Is she still not feeling well?

83
00:05:53,566 --> 00:05:55,001
She woke up a moment ago,

84
00:05:55,435 --> 00:05:56,869
but she fell asleep again.

85
00:05:56,969 --> 00:06:00,073
In the Palace, it is an act of disloyalty
not to take good care of yourself.

86
00:06:00,506 --> 00:06:02,041
Let me know when she wakes up.

87
00:06:02,108 --> 00:06:03,242
Yes, sir.

88
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:08,915
<i>Your Majesty,</i>

89
00:06:09,482 --> 00:06:10,717
<i>where are you?</i>

90
00:06:12,118 --> 00:06:13,152
<i>I miss you,</i>

91
00:06:13,853 --> 00:06:14,853
<i>Your Majesty.</i>

92
00:06:19,759 --> 00:06:21,127
{\an8}WESTERN FRONTIER OF THE YUAN DYNASTY

93
00:06:21,194 --> 00:06:22,195
{\an8}<i>Tonight,</i>

94
00:06:22,528 --> 00:06:24,263
<i>your head will be mine.</i>

95
00:06:24,831 --> 00:06:25,865
Your Majesty.

96
00:06:37,543 --> 00:06:39,879
-The attack has begun.
-Take your positions!

97
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,189
General, they are attacking us first.

98
00:06:54,627 --> 00:06:55,762
Retreat!

99
00:07:04,404 --> 00:07:05,571
Chase them!

100
00:07:11,144 --> 00:07:12,245
You scum!

101
00:07:21,254 --> 00:07:23,322
Hurry! Let us get those scums!

102
00:07:30,663 --> 00:07:32,265
We shall not chase them any further.

103
00:07:32,965 --> 00:07:36,536
If we wait for them on their route,
they will definitely show up again.

104
00:07:36,936 --> 00:07:37,936
Yes, Your Majesty.

105
00:07:48,414 --> 00:07:50,082
There is a trap!

106
00:07:50,416 --> 00:07:51,951
Retreat! Go back!

107
00:07:52,885 --> 00:07:53,920
There is a trap!

108
00:08:01,694 --> 00:08:03,095
Now. Go!

109
00:08:32,758 --> 00:08:34,093
Attack!

110
00:08:58,551 --> 00:09:01,120
-Where is this noise coming from?
-From the mountains in the east.

111
00:09:01,187 --> 00:09:02,655
Is there a battle going on?

112
00:09:02,722 --> 00:09:05,491
Listen. The screams will not stop.

113
00:09:05,558 --> 00:09:07,360
Who are the ones screaming, though?

114
00:09:07,426 --> 00:09:09,428
The Dolgwol or the labor soldiers?

115
00:09:09,629 --> 00:09:13,065
I guess the deposed king was ambushed
while chasing the enemy into their base.

116
00:09:17,503 --> 00:09:18,671
How foolish.

117
00:09:19,105 --> 00:09:22,174
Eager to make a contribution,
he marched into the enemy base.

118
00:09:23,576 --> 00:09:25,144
Did Yeom Byeong-su follow him?

119
00:09:25,611 --> 00:09:26,611
Yes, General.

120
00:09:27,446 --> 00:09:29,715
Even if the deposed king survives,

121
00:09:30,416 --> 00:09:32,785
he will be killed by Yeom Byeong-su.

122
00:09:51,604 --> 00:09:52,604
Are you sure

123
00:09:53,072 --> 00:09:56,509
those scumbags will show up here?

124
00:09:56,876 --> 00:09:58,811
Hey, do you not remember who made the map?

125
00:09:59,111 --> 00:10:01,213
The remnants will definitely pass by here.

126
00:10:13,426 --> 00:10:14,727
It's Batoreu.

127
00:10:15,094 --> 00:10:16,228
Batoreu...

128
00:10:17,263 --> 00:10:20,366
I will cut off his head with my own hands.

129
00:10:25,972 --> 00:10:27,306
Attack!

130
00:11:46,852 --> 00:11:48,154
I found a body!

131
00:12:05,671 --> 00:12:07,273
They must have all been killed.

132
00:12:08,474 --> 00:12:10,242
But all the dead bodies
belong to the Dolgwol.

133
00:12:10,609 --> 00:12:11,944
What happened?

134
00:12:12,712 --> 00:12:15,214
Then was it the Dolgwol
who were screaming last night?

135
00:12:15,548 --> 00:12:16,882
General.

136
00:12:24,090 --> 00:12:25,958
It took a long time
to collect all the weapons.

137
00:12:30,496 --> 00:12:31,797
Where did you get that horse?

138
00:12:33,733 --> 00:12:35,634
It is the enemy commander,
Batoreu's horse.

139
00:12:37,169 --> 00:12:38,169
Batoreu?

140
00:12:39,705 --> 00:12:40,973
Is he dead too?

141
00:13:03,562 --> 00:13:04,630
General!

142
00:13:08,167 --> 00:13:11,103
We lost hundreds of soldiers.

143
00:13:12,972 --> 00:13:14,907
{\an8}YEON BISU, BATOREU'S DAUGHTER

144
00:13:22,948 --> 00:13:23,816
By the way,

145
00:13:23,883 --> 00:13:26,185
where are Eunuch Bang and Jeom-bak?

146
00:13:26,952 --> 00:13:28,087
They died...

147
00:13:29,321 --> 00:13:31,157
-heroically.
-They died?

148
00:13:32,725 --> 00:13:34,894
That is great to hear...

149
00:13:45,704 --> 00:13:48,174
Your Imperial Majesty,
I hope you have been well.

150
00:13:50,576 --> 00:13:52,945
It has been a while, General Dang Gise.

151
00:13:53,078 --> 00:13:55,347
Why did you want to see me?

152
00:13:56,949 --> 00:13:59,118
I am sure you remember
the guy called Seung-nyang.

153
00:14:00,686 --> 00:14:02,154
On my way back to the Yuan dynasty,

154
00:14:02,254 --> 00:14:04,356
I asked you to release him from prison.

155
00:14:04,490 --> 00:14:05,490
Yes, Your Imperial Majesty.

156
00:14:05,958 --> 00:14:07,126
I remember that.

157
00:14:07,393 --> 00:14:10,095
If you know anything
about how he is doing now,

158
00:14:10,196 --> 00:14:11,797
please tell me everything.

159
00:14:14,066 --> 00:14:15,534
Is he married now?

160
00:14:16,335 --> 00:14:18,437
I wonder where he is and what he is doing.

161
00:14:21,006 --> 00:14:22,641
According to the envoys in Goryeo,

162
00:14:23,409 --> 00:14:26,545
he is doing well in his hometown,
where his brothers are.

163
00:14:27,213 --> 00:14:28,948
-Is that right?
-By the way,

164
00:14:30,282 --> 00:14:32,351
why are you asking that?

165
00:14:34,453 --> 00:14:35,955
It is nothing.

166
00:14:36,856 --> 00:14:38,958
I was just wondering how he is doing.

167
00:14:40,226 --> 00:14:42,828
You are now the Emperor of the Great Yuan.

168
00:14:43,495 --> 00:14:46,131
You should forget about
what happened in Goryeo.

169
00:14:51,704 --> 00:14:53,172
<i>Before he finds out,</i>

170
00:14:53,672 --> 00:14:56,041
<i>I should send Seung-nyang away.</i>

171
00:14:57,276 --> 00:15:00,813
His Imperial Majesty has arrived.

172
00:15:15,728 --> 00:15:16,762
You over there.

173
00:15:19,765 --> 00:15:20,966
I am talking to you.

174
00:15:22,534 --> 00:15:24,303
His Imperial Majesty wants to talk to you.

175
00:15:33,812 --> 00:15:36,215
Are you taking good care
of the ornament I gave you?

176
00:15:38,350 --> 00:15:39,585
I lost it.

177
00:15:40,519 --> 00:15:43,088
How dare you?
His Imperial Majesty kindly bestowed--

178
00:15:44,189 --> 00:15:45,424
I am going to the backyard.

179
00:15:45,758 --> 00:15:47,726
Have her prepare some tea.

180
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:49,728
Yes, Your Imperial Majesty.

181
00:16:10,683 --> 00:16:12,384
Are you aware that His Imperial Majesty
is the one

182
00:16:12,484 --> 00:16:14,353
who chose you to work at his palace?

183
00:16:15,321 --> 00:16:16,355
Yes, I am.

184
00:16:23,729 --> 00:16:24,763
Is that all?

185
00:16:25,664 --> 00:16:26,664
How rude.

186
00:16:26,732 --> 00:16:28,067
You should thank--

187
00:16:28,534 --> 00:16:29,368
Forget it.

188
00:16:29,468 --> 00:16:31,103
So how do you like working here?

189
00:16:32,171 --> 00:16:34,873
You can tell me if you need anything.

190
00:16:36,575 --> 00:16:37,676
I am sorry to say this,

191
00:16:38,711 --> 00:16:40,879
but I would like to go back
to where I used to work at.

192
00:16:44,383 --> 00:16:47,653
Do you not like working here?

193
00:16:48,253 --> 00:16:49,253
I prefer

194
00:16:49,855 --> 00:16:51,423
my previous job.

195
00:16:57,930 --> 00:16:59,631
How could you serve tea like this?

196
00:17:00,032 --> 00:17:01,633
It is already cold!

197
00:17:02,935 --> 00:17:04,036
Let me prepare some more.

198
00:17:04,136 --> 00:17:05,971
Forget it. Just take it away.

199
00:17:16,682 --> 00:17:17,850
What is going on?

200
00:17:18,484 --> 00:17:20,652
Did you not say
she would be greatly touched?

201
00:17:20,853 --> 00:17:21,887
You little...

202
00:17:25,024 --> 00:17:26,225
I am confused myself.

203
00:17:27,893 --> 00:17:29,695
How can she be so oblivious?

204
00:17:35,334 --> 00:17:37,636
<i>Your Imperial Majesty, are you awake?</i>

205
00:17:46,345 --> 00:17:47,345
Goodness.

206
00:17:57,823 --> 00:17:58,823
Hold on.

207
00:17:59,224 --> 00:18:00,559
All of you can leave...

208
00:18:02,227 --> 00:18:03,227
except you.

209
00:18:05,197 --> 00:18:06,398
I want you to do it.

210
00:18:49,041 --> 00:18:50,175
Gently.

211
00:19:13,265 --> 00:19:15,134
Let me put some toner on your face.

212
00:19:37,556 --> 00:19:38,724
It hurts.

213
00:19:41,126 --> 00:19:42,194
Why you little...

214
00:19:50,936 --> 00:19:52,871
Here. Give me a massage.

215
00:20:15,727 --> 00:20:17,696
How can you look so much like him?

216
00:20:21,366 --> 00:20:22,968
So, why do you not like working here?

217
00:20:24,002 --> 00:20:26,872
I hear the work is easier,
and you get paid more here.

218
00:20:27,506 --> 00:20:29,408
Why do you want to go back to--

219
00:20:31,410 --> 00:20:33,312
-It hurts.
-Your Imperial Majesty.

220
00:20:34,146 --> 00:20:36,415
Please forgive me, Your Imperial Majesty.

221
00:20:36,481 --> 00:20:38,650
How can a girl have such strong hands?

222
00:20:38,850 --> 00:20:40,686
She deserves punishment.

223
00:20:42,387 --> 00:20:43,388
That is not necessary.

224
00:20:44,523 --> 00:20:45,691
You can leave now.

225
00:20:56,535 --> 00:20:59,504
I think she should be sent back
to where she used to be.

226
00:21:02,908 --> 00:21:05,744
She even acts just like Seung-nyang.

227
00:21:07,746 --> 00:21:08,814
I know

228
00:21:10,148 --> 00:21:11,850
how to handle a person like her.

229
00:21:18,724 --> 00:21:19,791
It is hot.

230
00:21:25,163 --> 00:21:26,431
It is less hot now.

231
00:21:31,503 --> 00:21:32,504
It is hot.

232
00:21:36,174 --> 00:21:37,242
It is too cold.

233
00:21:40,812 --> 00:21:42,447
I think it is getting hot again.

234
00:21:44,750 --> 00:21:48,120
It is cold. I said, it is cold!

235
00:21:51,590 --> 00:21:54,426
Do you not know how to use a fan?

236
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:57,796
<i>It is such a shame</i>

237
00:21:59,197 --> 00:22:00,565
<i>that I cannot kill you right now.</i>

238
00:22:02,934 --> 00:22:05,270
Why are you glaring at me like that?

239
00:22:06,305 --> 00:22:08,206
This is how I look at everyone.

240
00:22:08,974 --> 00:22:11,543
Is that right? I want to hear you laugh.

241
00:22:13,712 --> 00:22:14,946
Do you not know how to laugh?

242
00:22:16,281 --> 00:22:17,883
Let me hear you laugh.

243
00:22:28,593 --> 00:22:30,028
That is not what I was expecting.

244
00:22:30,495 --> 00:22:32,798
Try to put on a pretty smile then.

245
00:22:47,546 --> 00:22:48,546
Your Imperial Majesty.

246
00:22:50,949 --> 00:22:51,949
Your Imperial Majesty,

247
00:22:52,484 --> 00:22:54,086
Grand Councillor would like to see you.

248
00:23:35,494 --> 00:23:37,496
What does that one say?

249
00:23:38,463 --> 00:23:39,664
{\an8}YEONCHEOL, GRAND COUNCILLOR

250
00:23:39,765 --> 00:23:41,633
{\an8}Do you want to be the ruler now?

251
00:23:43,034 --> 00:23:46,071
No. You are the ruler, of course.

252
00:23:46,471 --> 00:23:49,007
Where do you need my seal next?

253
00:23:49,574 --> 00:23:51,910
You should never make Park your concubine.

254
00:23:53,311 --> 00:23:55,914
You should spend tonight with the Empress.

255
00:23:57,149 --> 00:23:58,183
Even the court officials

256
00:23:58,350 --> 00:24:00,585
are gossiping about
how you do not spend time with her,

257
00:24:00,685 --> 00:24:03,688
and I am greatly humiliated
by all the rumors.

258
00:24:04,156 --> 00:24:07,025
Of course, I will do as you say.

259
00:24:16,535 --> 00:24:17,769
Not there.

260
00:24:18,703 --> 00:24:19,704
Here.

261
00:24:41,126 --> 00:24:44,129
Your Imperial Majesty,
His Imperial Majesty is here.

262
00:24:44,496 --> 00:24:45,664
Escort him inside.

263
00:24:57,075 --> 00:25:00,212
I can serve His Imperial Majesty.
You should all leave.

264
00:25:00,345 --> 00:25:01,413
Yes, Your Imperial Majesty.

265
00:25:18,964 --> 00:25:21,132
Why are you not looking at me?

266
00:25:29,007 --> 00:25:30,275
Please

267
00:25:31,176 --> 00:25:32,744
take my clothes off.

268
00:25:36,948 --> 00:25:38,083
Please.

269
00:26:05,143 --> 00:26:06,278
Blow out the candles.

270
00:26:49,888 --> 00:26:50,889
<i>They say the mind leads,</i>

271
00:26:51,256 --> 00:26:53,124
<i>and the body follows.</i>

272
00:26:54,893 --> 00:26:56,294
<i>The Emperor made clear last night</i>

273
00:26:57,395 --> 00:26:58,530
<i>that what his heart wants</i>

274
00:26:59,030 --> 00:27:00,832
<i>is not me.</i>

275
00:27:20,151 --> 00:27:21,186
Your Imperial Majesty.

276
00:27:21,953 --> 00:27:24,389
I heard you spent the night
with the Empress last night.

277
00:27:27,826 --> 00:27:29,961
I understand you completely.

278
00:27:32,664 --> 00:27:34,065
You do not have to worry.

279
00:27:34,733 --> 00:27:36,935
The Empress will never be able to
get pregnant.

280
00:27:37,135 --> 00:27:38,503
I made sure of it.

281
00:27:39,104 --> 00:27:41,573
-So you don't--
-Who am I?

282
00:27:45,744 --> 00:27:48,413
What is my role in this palace?

283
00:27:48,913 --> 00:27:51,650
What do I eat, sleep, and breathe for?

284
00:27:52,183 --> 00:27:54,886
-Your Imperial Majesty.
-Why am I even living?

285
00:27:55,186 --> 00:27:56,287
Why?

286
00:28:02,794 --> 00:28:05,063
You are waiting for your moment.

287
00:28:06,398 --> 00:28:08,800
However, you still need to
create an opportunity yourself.

288
00:28:08,867 --> 00:28:10,602
To do that, you need courage.

289
00:28:12,037 --> 00:28:13,371
Stay strong.

290
00:28:14,406 --> 00:28:15,807
That is all...

291
00:28:16,474 --> 00:28:17,909
I can tell you.

292
00:28:44,869 --> 00:28:47,372
I used to know someone
who looks a lot like you.

293
00:28:50,875 --> 00:28:52,944
He must hate me now,

294
00:28:53,545 --> 00:28:54,679
but he was...

295
00:28:56,715 --> 00:28:58,283
my only friend.

296
00:29:08,927 --> 00:29:09,927
Once,

297
00:29:10,595 --> 00:29:15,166
he and I were chased by these people
who were trying to kill me.

298
00:29:16,868 --> 00:29:20,071
They had us cornered on a cliff edge,
and I thought we were dead.

299
00:29:21,973 --> 00:29:22,973
At that moment,

300
00:29:23,074 --> 00:29:24,776
he yelled at me.

301
00:29:25,944 --> 00:29:29,013
<i>To become an emperor,
what have you done so far?</i>

302
00:29:29,814 --> 00:29:31,216
I--

303
00:29:31,282 --> 00:29:33,084
You only waited
for your younger brother to die.

304
00:29:33,184 --> 00:29:36,454
That is why you ended up here.

305
00:29:39,624 --> 00:29:42,727
If you want to live and become an emperor,

306
00:29:44,562 --> 00:29:45,730
you must jump.

307
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:50,535
Do you know what happened next?

308
00:30:00,945 --> 00:30:02,313
Seung-nyang, I did it.

309
00:30:04,315 --> 00:30:05,583
<i>It was the first time...</i>

310
00:30:06,384 --> 00:30:08,653
I saved my own life.

311
00:30:10,255 --> 00:30:12,390
I did something for myself...

312
00:30:14,893 --> 00:30:16,194
for the first time.

313
00:30:22,667 --> 00:30:24,402
Please be that person...

314
00:30:28,373 --> 00:30:29,774
and give me courage.

315
00:30:32,277 --> 00:30:33,945
Please be Seung-nyang

316
00:30:36,614 --> 00:30:38,249
and help me.

317
00:30:44,956 --> 00:30:46,224
That is not

318
00:30:47,425 --> 00:30:48,425
something I can do.

319
00:30:54,666 --> 00:30:55,733
My apologies.

320
00:30:57,168 --> 00:30:58,168
I understand.

321
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:03,775
You are right.

322
00:31:05,810 --> 00:31:07,912
You are not Seung-nyang.

323
00:31:11,282 --> 00:31:13,084
I was mistaken.

324
00:31:16,054 --> 00:31:17,388
I was greatly mistaken.

325
00:31:22,093 --> 00:31:23,628
Golta, are you there?

326
00:31:24,295 --> 00:31:25,563
Yes, Your Imperial Majesty.

327
00:31:34,172 --> 00:31:36,040
Send her back
to where she used to work at.

328
00:31:38,476 --> 00:31:39,544
Follow me.

329
00:32:24,889 --> 00:32:26,925
You brought us our first victory.

330
00:32:30,495 --> 00:32:32,263
I did not do it alone.

331
00:32:33,164 --> 00:32:34,565
My soldiers

332
00:32:34,799 --> 00:32:36,401
deserve a compliment too.

333
00:32:38,202 --> 00:32:41,105
Taltal, serve the labor soldiers
wine and meat.

334
00:32:41,706 --> 00:32:42,774
Yes, Uncle Baekan.

335
00:32:52,383 --> 00:32:54,385
You prevented our suffering
from heavy losses.

336
00:32:54,719 --> 00:32:57,755
I guess they will not be bothering us
at night anymore.

337
00:32:59,524 --> 00:33:01,392
Well, let us drink.

338
00:33:05,730 --> 00:33:07,832
<i>They seem to have an excellent strategist.</i>

339
00:33:08,766 --> 00:33:12,370
Baekan sure is a brave general,
but he is no thinker.

340
00:33:12,904 --> 00:33:15,406
{\an8}His nephew, Taltal, is with him.

341
00:33:17,475 --> 00:33:18,576
Taltal?

342
00:33:19,243 --> 00:33:21,913
He is said to be quite a strategist.

343
00:33:30,355 --> 00:33:33,391
The man who attacked us
was the leader of the foreigners.

344
00:33:35,293 --> 00:33:37,095
If it was Taltal's idea,

345
00:33:38,730 --> 00:33:40,598
Baekan would have been in charge.

346
00:33:40,865 --> 00:33:43,034
Then who is it?

347
00:33:45,403 --> 00:33:46,604
Whoever he is,

348
00:33:48,606 --> 00:33:51,909
he cannot possibly know our plans.

349
00:34:12,430 --> 00:34:13,765
I see that Batoreu

350
00:34:14,565 --> 00:34:16,134
had such a fine horse.

351
00:34:16,934 --> 00:34:19,971
It sure is, but His Majesty's skills
are amazing too.

352
00:34:25,943 --> 00:34:28,012
We are both on horseback.

353
00:34:28,279 --> 00:34:30,214
How about we have a match?

354
00:34:31,949 --> 00:34:33,117
Draw your sword.

355
00:34:34,052 --> 00:34:35,853
Let me see what you have got.

356
00:34:36,654 --> 00:34:37,722
Show off your sword skills

357
00:34:38,156 --> 00:34:39,690
in front of your enemy instead.

358
00:34:39,824 --> 00:34:43,928
After winning that one battle by luck,
you are full of yourself.

359
00:34:54,972 --> 00:34:55,972
General!

360
00:35:01,446 --> 00:35:02,647
Are you okay?

361
00:35:03,948 --> 00:35:05,850
Is that horse crazy?

362
00:35:09,353 --> 00:35:10,188
Come here.

363
00:35:10,288 --> 00:35:11,789
What is wrong with you?

364
00:35:13,024 --> 00:35:14,092
Easy.

365
00:35:15,393 --> 00:35:16,594
Easy!

366
00:35:19,263 --> 00:35:21,766
They are said to be the greatest horsemen
in the whole world,

367
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:24,068
but many of them
have fallen off a horse lately.

368
00:35:24,869 --> 00:35:26,270
Has anyone else fallen from a horse?

369
00:35:26,437 --> 00:35:29,974
Another Yuan soldier just fell
and broke his leg.

370
00:35:38,149 --> 00:35:39,650
Are they not the Dolgwol?

371
00:35:40,551 --> 00:35:41,886
They do not seem like prisoners.

372
00:35:45,890 --> 00:35:47,358
<i>This was drawn by our spies.</i>

373
00:35:48,559 --> 00:35:50,294
This is the enemy base.

374
00:35:50,628 --> 00:35:52,463
It is surrounded on three sides
by mountains.

375
00:35:52,763 --> 00:35:54,799
And it is facing a narrow ravine.

376
00:35:55,867 --> 00:35:57,935
It is a natural fortress.

377
00:35:58,169 --> 00:36:00,171
How many men do they have?

378
00:36:00,605 --> 00:36:03,174
Over 5,000, sir.

379
00:36:04,475 --> 00:36:05,476
Over 5,000?

380
00:36:05,843 --> 00:36:07,879
That is more than I expected.

381
00:36:08,012 --> 00:36:11,649
Even if we attack their base directly,
there is no guarantee that we will win.

382
00:36:11,949 --> 00:36:15,052
To catch a raccoon in a den,
you have to set a fire in the den.

383
00:36:16,554 --> 00:36:17,554
I want you

384
00:36:17,955 --> 00:36:19,423
to lure them.

385
00:36:20,925 --> 00:36:23,561
Batoreu knows your face.

386
00:36:23,728 --> 00:36:26,964
As soon as he sees you,
he will attack you.

387
00:36:27,331 --> 00:36:31,369
When they leave their base,
we will move in and conquer it.

388
00:36:33,871 --> 00:36:37,575
<i>You want to use us as bait
while you take all the credit?</i>

389
00:36:39,243 --> 00:36:40,278
General.

390
00:36:41,646 --> 00:36:43,848
The Dolgwol are here again.

391
00:36:52,623 --> 00:36:54,425
We have some men hiding in the mountains.

392
00:36:54,559 --> 00:36:56,894
The same thing will not happen again.

393
00:37:04,135 --> 00:37:05,236
Scums.

394
00:37:05,469 --> 00:37:07,471
They could wake the dead.

395
00:37:08,573 --> 00:37:09,974
Something feels off.

396
00:37:10,208 --> 00:37:12,243
Why would they be back here
after taking such damage?

397
00:37:12,944 --> 00:37:16,614
I am sure their goal is not
just to keep us awake.

398
00:37:17,048 --> 00:37:18,849
Then what would be their goal?

399
00:37:20,384 --> 00:37:21,485
<i>Batoreu.</i>

400
00:37:22,453 --> 00:37:24,388
<i>What is it that you want?</i>

401
00:37:25,590 --> 00:37:27,391
<i>Do not be so proud of your first victory.</i>

402
00:37:28,426 --> 00:37:32,463
<i>This is where the bloodbath begins.</i>

403
00:37:45,843 --> 00:37:47,445
Come with me.

404
00:37:56,587 --> 00:37:58,055
They are skittish.

405
00:37:58,256 --> 00:38:00,625
It is not just our soldiers
who has not been able to sleep.

406
00:38:00,791 --> 00:38:04,295
So all this noise day and night

407
00:38:05,496 --> 00:38:06,797
was to keep the horses awake?

408
00:38:07,064 --> 00:38:10,801
The enemy will charge in with the cavalry.

409
00:38:12,036 --> 00:38:13,904
If our horses cannot fight,

410
00:38:14,272 --> 00:38:16,641
we do not stand a chance.

411
00:38:17,408 --> 00:38:19,710
Do not tell anyone about it yet.

412
00:38:20,611 --> 00:38:21,746
Yes, Your Majesty.

413
00:38:22,847 --> 00:38:26,384
Batoreu is more tenacious than I expected.

414
00:38:27,718 --> 00:38:29,287
Targeting the horses...

415
00:38:31,255 --> 00:38:32,255
{\an8}THE YUAN IMPERIAL PALACE

416
00:38:32,290 --> 00:38:33,591
{\an8}Is she really pregnant?

417
00:38:35,092 --> 00:38:36,092
Yes,

418
00:38:36,227 --> 00:38:37,895
the physician confirmed it.

419
00:38:39,463 --> 00:38:41,332
How can I live in the Palace

420
00:38:41,532 --> 00:38:43,601
after being humiliated like this?

421
00:38:44,568 --> 00:38:46,270
It is a matter the Inner Court
should handle,

422
00:38:46,470 --> 00:38:47,838
but I cannot stand it anymore.

423
00:38:47,905 --> 00:38:50,574
I think you should stay out of it.

424
00:38:51,575 --> 00:38:52,575
I have...

425
00:38:53,444 --> 00:38:54,645
an idea.

426
00:38:56,047 --> 00:38:57,214
What is it?

427
00:38:57,815 --> 00:38:59,583
Park is served by maids

428
00:39:00,051 --> 00:39:01,519
from Goryeo.

429
00:39:02,253 --> 00:39:04,455
I am sure she deeply trusts them.

430
00:39:04,555 --> 00:39:07,091
Are you saying
we should plant a spy among them?

431
00:39:07,358 --> 00:39:08,358
Yes, Father.

432
00:39:08,426 --> 00:39:12,229
It is a chance to get rid of
Park and the Empress Dowager.

433
00:39:12,396 --> 00:39:15,333
If it is not done carefully,
it could backfire at us.

434
00:39:15,466 --> 00:39:17,668
That is why we need to pick
the right person.

435
00:39:23,007 --> 00:39:24,007
Your Imperial Majesty,

436
00:39:24,275 --> 00:39:26,110
please listen very closely.

437
00:39:26,310 --> 00:39:28,279
You must do exactly as I say.

438
00:39:29,613 --> 00:39:31,048
Go on.

439
00:39:31,615 --> 00:39:33,484
To find the right maid for us,

440
00:39:34,051 --> 00:39:35,853
we need to test them first.

441
00:39:45,763 --> 00:39:47,465
<i>Bring me</i>

442
00:39:48,065 --> 00:39:49,734
<i>one of Park's maids who can read.</i>

443
00:39:52,803 --> 00:39:54,372
Yang, you must be disappointed.

444
00:39:54,705 --> 00:39:57,775
You were sent back here
from the Emperor's palace.

445
00:40:03,314 --> 00:40:04,615
Be honest.

446
00:40:05,416 --> 00:40:07,952
You have connections in the Palace,
do you not?

447
00:40:09,954 --> 00:40:12,723
Otherwise,
how could you have been chosen...

448
00:40:19,964 --> 00:40:21,365
Which of you is Yeon-hwa?

449
00:40:23,834 --> 00:40:25,569
I am, my lady.

450
00:40:26,504 --> 00:40:27,872
Come with me.

451
00:40:34,712 --> 00:40:38,149
Why would Court Lady Seo
at the Empress's palace take her?

452
00:40:47,958 --> 00:40:49,293
Do not be nervous.

453
00:40:50,895 --> 00:40:51,929
Take it.

454
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,703
{\an8}It is a list of court ladies who have had
improper relationships with the Kheshig.

455
00:41:01,672 --> 00:41:02,773
Deliver their names

456
00:41:03,007 --> 00:41:05,309
to the commander of the Kheshig secretly.

457
00:41:06,944 --> 00:41:09,213
Many lives are on the line.

458
00:41:10,147 --> 00:41:12,016
You should be careful.

459
00:41:13,517 --> 00:41:14,652
Yes, Your Imperial Majesty.

460
00:41:18,956 --> 00:41:22,293
No one can know that I am involved.

461
00:41:23,093 --> 00:41:26,263
That is why I am using you
instead of someone working here.

462
00:41:26,530 --> 00:41:28,966
I understand, Your Imperial Majesty.

463
00:41:29,333 --> 00:41:31,135
She seems to understand things quickly.

464
00:41:31,735 --> 00:41:33,304
You can see she is smart.

465
00:41:33,838 --> 00:41:34,905
There is one more thing

466
00:41:35,773 --> 00:41:37,374
you need to remember.

467
00:41:38,776 --> 00:41:39,944
You are not to see

468
00:41:41,212 --> 00:41:43,614
the names inside.

469
00:41:44,815 --> 00:41:45,950
Do you understand?

470
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:52,623
I will follow your order,
Your Imperial Majesty.

471
00:41:57,228 --> 00:42:00,231
Once the accused court ladies get
executed, you will need new court ladies.

472
00:42:01,866 --> 00:42:02,867
You sure are

473
00:42:03,601 --> 00:42:05,336
a clever girl.

474
00:42:07,438 --> 00:42:10,908
If you deliver the letter successfully,

475
00:42:12,276 --> 00:42:13,911
I will recommend you as a court lady.

476
00:42:14,345 --> 00:42:15,479
Are you sure?

477
00:42:15,646 --> 00:42:19,583
I think you made a good impression
on Her Imperial Majesty as well.

478
00:42:19,950 --> 00:42:20,951
Thank you.

479
00:42:21,886 --> 00:42:23,254
I appreciate it, my lady.

480
00:42:31,362 --> 00:42:34,365
It is natural to want to see
what you should not.

481
00:42:35,266 --> 00:42:36,267
In addition,

482
00:42:37,268 --> 00:42:41,305
the letter contains the names
of the court ladies she can make use of.

483
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:44,308
How can she resist?

484
00:42:52,550 --> 00:42:54,051
<i>This is killing me.</i>

485
00:42:54,385 --> 00:42:56,654
<i>Who had improper relationships
with those of the Kheshig?</i>

486
00:43:18,375 --> 00:43:19,510
What?

487
00:43:22,212 --> 00:43:23,881
What should I do?

488
00:43:38,362 --> 00:43:39,830
My apologies, Your Imperial Majesty.

489
00:43:41,231 --> 00:43:43,667
I slipped and fell into the pond.

490
00:43:44,001 --> 00:43:47,471
Are you sure you did not read the letter?

491
00:43:47,571 --> 00:43:49,840
Never. I would never.

492
00:43:50,174 --> 00:43:52,476
Give her another one.

493
00:43:54,812 --> 00:43:56,847
Spare my life, Your Imperial Majesty.

494
00:43:57,281 --> 00:43:58,649
Please.

495
00:44:05,456 --> 00:44:07,224
You can go back to your quarters.

496
00:44:09,093 --> 00:44:10,828
Tell anyone what happened today,

497
00:44:12,429 --> 00:44:14,231
and you are dead.

498
00:44:14,832 --> 00:44:15,933
Yes, Your Imperial Majesty.

499
00:44:16,033 --> 00:44:18,068
Thank you so much.

500
00:44:22,773 --> 00:44:25,309
How could you pick someone
who cannot even pass the test?

501
00:44:25,876 --> 00:44:27,745
My apologies, Your Imperial Majesty.

502
00:44:30,147 --> 00:44:31,615
Get another one.

503
00:44:32,082 --> 00:44:33,117
Yes, Your Imperial Majesty.

504
00:44:41,592 --> 00:44:42,626
Your Majesty.

505
00:44:47,164 --> 00:44:48,265
Come on in.

506
00:44:48,732 --> 00:44:50,200
Has anyone seen you?

507
00:44:50,267 --> 00:44:52,569
The guards are all our men.

508
00:44:52,870 --> 00:44:54,104
You do not need to worry.

509
00:44:58,776 --> 00:45:00,210
The time has come.

510
00:45:00,878 --> 00:45:04,114
You two have an extremely important task
to take care of.

511
00:45:21,065 --> 00:45:22,866
<i>Follow Batoreu's horse.</i>

512
00:45:23,434 --> 00:45:27,004
<i>It will lead us to their base.</i>

513
00:45:31,775 --> 00:45:35,312
{\an8}You want us to join the Dolgwol?

514
00:45:35,479 --> 00:45:39,016
I am not fighting against the Dolgwol
in this war.

515
00:45:40,050 --> 00:45:43,754
I am fighting against Baekan
for the control over the Silk Road.

516
00:45:44,855 --> 00:45:48,625
That is why we have to be the ones
who get Batoreu.

517
00:45:48,792 --> 00:45:53,130
Do you think they will trust us?

518
00:45:53,931 --> 00:45:55,733
Follow my instructions,

519
00:45:57,067 --> 00:45:58,869
and you will be fine.

520
00:46:09,646 --> 00:46:10,848
Open the gate!

521
00:46:15,352 --> 00:46:16,487
Who are you?

522
00:46:16,854 --> 00:46:19,289
I am here to meet General Batoreu.

523
00:46:21,959 --> 00:46:24,995
It looks like they do not know who I am,

524
00:46:25,095 --> 00:46:26,730
Jeom-bak.

525
00:46:27,664 --> 00:46:28,932
Listen carefully.

526
00:46:29,933 --> 00:46:32,736
This man here is...

527
00:46:36,106 --> 00:46:39,009
Gosh. You rotten...

528
00:46:39,376 --> 00:46:41,912
Hey, stop it!

529
00:46:43,614 --> 00:46:45,649
They are surrendering?

530
00:46:45,949 --> 00:46:49,153
Yes. They came riding
on the horse you had lost.

531
00:46:52,122 --> 00:46:53,357
Is he a soldier?

532
00:46:53,791 --> 00:46:57,161
He claims to be a strategist.

533
00:47:00,964 --> 00:47:02,166
A strategist?

534
00:47:03,133 --> 00:47:05,135
Why did he have my hair shaved off?

535
00:47:05,536 --> 00:47:07,171
It grew quite a bit already.

536
00:47:11,208 --> 00:47:12,776
Why are you here?

537
00:47:13,110 --> 00:47:14,144
This man

538
00:47:15,712 --> 00:47:18,615
does not talk with underlings.

539
00:47:19,216 --> 00:47:21,251
Bring General Batoreu here!

540
00:47:27,624 --> 00:47:29,493
I serve General Batoreu.

541
00:47:30,527 --> 00:47:32,629
You can talk to me.

542
00:47:34,131 --> 00:47:35,532
What a disappointment.

543
00:47:36,433 --> 00:47:38,635
What a shame.

544
00:47:41,305 --> 00:47:44,508
I was hoping I would find the right master
and help him rule the world.

545
00:47:45,375 --> 00:47:48,245
I even castrated myself
to focus on my studies.

546
00:47:49,213 --> 00:47:51,281
It is such a shame.

547
00:47:51,815 --> 00:47:52,816
You castrated yourself?

548
00:47:53,650 --> 00:47:56,486
{\an8}After castration,
Sima Qian was able to write

549
00:47:56,854 --> 00:47:59,056
his masterpiece.

550
00:47:59,456 --> 00:48:01,925
I also removed all my desires

551
00:48:02,192 --> 00:48:05,762
and devoted myself to astronomy,
geography, and military tactics.

552
00:48:05,829 --> 00:48:09,032
{\an8}I thought I would serve
an admirable commander,

553
00:48:09,132 --> 00:48:11,068
{\an8}but it turns out he was nothing
but an incompetent fool.

554
00:48:11,168 --> 00:48:14,071
How deplorable is that?

555
00:48:14,905 --> 00:48:18,609
It is such a disappointment.

556
00:48:19,943 --> 00:48:21,545
How can I trust you?

557
00:48:23,213 --> 00:48:25,816
What is the point
of having fine horses everywhere?

558
00:48:26,216 --> 00:48:27,751
Everyone is blind anyway.

559
00:48:28,785 --> 00:48:31,521
No one even recognizes them.

560
00:48:33,323 --> 00:48:34,424
You are right.

561
00:48:37,594 --> 00:48:38,762
What a shame.

562
00:48:40,364 --> 00:48:41,364
General.

563
00:48:42,733 --> 00:48:45,569
{\an8}I think they are full of it.
Should I kill them?

564
00:48:46,837 --> 00:48:48,839
We can check their story first.

565
00:48:55,612 --> 00:48:56,613
How did I do?

566
00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:59,249
Have you ever sold drugs at markets?

567
00:48:59,449 --> 00:49:00,918
You have a silver tongue.

568
00:49:00,984 --> 00:49:02,853
Be quiet. By the way,

569
00:49:04,054 --> 00:49:06,690
that was a woman, right?

570
00:49:06,957 --> 00:49:09,793
Yes. It was definitely a woman.

571
00:49:10,961 --> 00:49:12,029
A woman...

572
00:49:13,230 --> 00:49:15,132
This really hurts.

573
00:49:15,465 --> 00:49:17,034
A woman...

574
00:49:24,574 --> 00:49:27,244
I wonder if Eunuch Bang is still alive.

575
00:49:27,511 --> 00:49:30,614
I hope he will succeed,
but it is way too dangerous.

576
00:49:35,185 --> 00:49:36,353
<i>Seung-nyang,</i>

577
00:49:36,887 --> 00:49:38,488
<i>please hang on.</i>

578
00:49:39,323 --> 00:49:42,960
<i>I will come back for you.</i>

579
00:49:52,736 --> 00:49:54,004
It has been a while, Seung-nyang.

580
00:49:55,706 --> 00:49:57,374
You are called Yang here, right?

581
00:50:04,214 --> 00:50:05,949
You look a bit haggard.

582
00:50:12,489 --> 00:50:14,358
You are just as sassy as before.

583
00:50:21,832 --> 00:50:24,234
General Dang Gise must be surprised
to see her too.

584
00:51:00,203 --> 00:51:01,304
Seung-nyang.

585
00:51:24,828 --> 00:51:25,828
<i>No way.</i>

586
00:51:25,962 --> 00:51:27,064
<i>Could she be...</i>

587
00:51:29,066 --> 00:51:30,267
<i>It is impossible.</i>

588
00:51:31,435 --> 00:51:33,103
<i>Seung-nyang is a guy.</i>

589
00:51:33,570 --> 00:51:36,573
<i>And he is in Goryeo now.</i>

590
00:51:39,509 --> 00:51:40,509
Your Imperial Majesty,

591
00:51:40,844 --> 00:51:42,145
is everything all right?

592
00:51:43,413 --> 00:51:44,948
Send someone to Goryeo.

593
00:51:46,216 --> 00:51:48,185
-Pardon?
-Find Seung-nyang

594
00:51:48,285 --> 00:51:50,954
and bring him to me. Do you understand?

595
00:52:03,366 --> 00:52:06,336
This is the only maid from Goryeo

596
00:52:07,104 --> 00:52:08,572
who can read.

597
00:52:10,707 --> 00:52:14,244
By the way, why does Her Imperial Majesty
need a maid who can read?

598
00:52:15,145 --> 00:52:17,614
It is nothing, sir.

599
00:52:20,117 --> 00:52:22,719
Come with me.

600
00:52:29,426 --> 00:52:30,494
Your Imperial Majesty.

601
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:37,600
You are the one

602
00:52:37,934 --> 00:52:39,202
I saw in the backyard.

603
00:52:44,074 --> 00:52:46,476
She is the only one left.

604
00:52:52,149 --> 00:52:53,984
Would you like to give her a chance?

605
00:52:57,954 --> 00:53:01,758
Deliver this to the commander
of the Kheshig secretly.

606
00:53:02,559 --> 00:53:05,962
If you complete the task successfully,
you will become a court lady.

607
00:53:06,329 --> 00:53:08,665
I am not interested in
becoming a court lady.

608
00:53:11,635 --> 00:53:15,005
Please get me out of the Palace.

609
00:53:16,907 --> 00:53:20,477
I am sure Her Imperial Majesty
can do that.

610
00:53:21,311 --> 00:53:23,213
I will talk to her.

611
00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:25,649
I appreciate it, my lady.

612
00:53:31,087 --> 00:53:32,956
<i>I do not like her.</i>

613
00:53:33,623 --> 00:53:37,827
If she becomes a court lady
and seduces His Imperial Majesty...

614
00:53:39,029 --> 00:53:41,798
She says she does not want
to become a court lady.

615
00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:47,804
She asks to be sent away from the Palace.

616
00:53:50,607 --> 00:53:52,576
I do not like
the way she looks at me either.

617
00:53:53,510 --> 00:53:54,511
I am sure

618
00:53:55,478 --> 00:53:57,614
she will read the letter.

619
00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:33,350
<i>Kill the person who delivers this letter.</i>

620
00:54:38,722 --> 00:54:40,924
<i>Empress has no reason to kill me.</i>

621
00:54:41,424 --> 00:54:44,094
<i>So what is this all about?</i>

622
00:54:44,894 --> 00:54:47,063
She is the only one left.

623
00:54:48,031 --> 00:54:49,566
Would you like to give her a chance?

624
00:54:51,067 --> 00:54:52,235
<i>It is a test.</i>

625
00:54:53,136 --> 00:54:54,638
<i>She is testing me.</i>

626
00:54:59,376 --> 00:55:00,443
Damn it.

627
00:55:01,411 --> 00:55:03,413
I got dragged into something troublesome.

628
00:55:16,293 --> 00:55:17,160
What?

629
00:55:17,227 --> 00:55:19,329
She met the commander of the Kheshig?

630
00:55:19,696 --> 00:55:22,565
She must not have read the letter.

631
00:55:24,868 --> 00:55:26,970
She passed the first test,

632
00:55:28,038 --> 00:55:30,240
but she will not be able to
pass the second one.

633
00:55:33,343 --> 00:55:35,445
Who sent this?

634
00:55:36,546 --> 00:55:37,614
I do not know.

635
00:55:37,747 --> 00:55:39,749
Do you know what this letter says?

636
00:55:40,383 --> 00:55:43,086
It is a plot to set the Palace on fire.

637
00:55:44,854 --> 00:55:46,356
<i>It is not what it says.</i>

638
00:55:46,956 --> 00:55:51,227
You will be implicated
if you do not open your mouth.

639
00:55:54,364 --> 00:55:56,266
<i>This is another test.</i>

640
00:56:03,707 --> 00:56:07,243
If you want to live,
tell me who this letter is from.

641
00:56:07,544 --> 00:56:09,813
How can I tell you what I do not know?

642
00:56:10,513 --> 00:56:13,717
Have it your way then.

643
00:56:19,189 --> 00:56:22,225
She kept her mouth shut.

644
00:56:25,128 --> 00:56:28,031
This time, it will be your head.

645
00:56:29,833 --> 00:56:31,134
That is enough.

646
00:56:48,485 --> 00:56:50,053
Why did you not tell him

647
00:56:51,454 --> 00:56:52,956
the letter was from me?

648
00:56:54,824 --> 00:56:56,025
I simply...

649
00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:58,495
followed your order.

650
00:57:01,965 --> 00:57:03,867
It strikes me as odd

651
00:57:04,601 --> 00:57:07,303
that you even risked your life
to stay loyal to me.

652
00:57:07,637 --> 00:57:11,207
I was taught
that I should not break faith with anyone.

653
00:57:12,275 --> 00:57:15,545
To disobey strikes me as odd.

654
00:57:16,079 --> 00:57:17,614
So you do not want to become a court lady?

655
00:57:19,015 --> 00:57:21,184
Why do you want to leave the palace?

656
00:57:21,584 --> 00:57:22,886
There is someone

657
00:57:25,155 --> 00:57:28,124
I have to meet.

658
00:57:31,694 --> 00:57:33,963
It must be someone you love.

659
00:57:41,171 --> 00:57:42,705
If you help me,

660
00:57:44,774 --> 00:57:46,709
I will help you meet him.

661
00:57:49,145 --> 00:57:50,313
What...

662
00:57:51,448 --> 00:57:53,450
do you want me to do?

663
00:58:10,800 --> 00:58:13,837
Park is pregnant
with His Imperial Majesty's child.

664
00:58:15,305 --> 00:58:16,406
Have her...

665
00:58:17,874 --> 00:58:19,209
take this.
