<i>Timing and subtitles brought to you by <br> The Guardians of Justice Team @ Viki</i>

2
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:24,730
<i>At first, I was taken aback.</i>

3
00:00:24,730 --> 00:00:27,820
<i>Wondering why Your Highness was stepping up for Prince Yeonryeong.</i>

4
00:00:27,820 --> 00:00:32,580
<i>You who were living well without declaring your existence.</i>

5
00:00:32,580 --> 00:00:35,020
<i>That's when a memory came to me.</i>

6
00:00:35,020 --> 00:00:38,970
<i>An image of Your Highness when you were young and extremely bright.</i>

7
00:00:38,970 --> 00:00:41,920
<i>If I felt that way, I wondered how you must have felt.</i>

8
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:46,280
<i>If you were ever resentful of your lowly blood.</i>

9
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:52,890
<i>So perhaps you at least wanted to live vicariously through Prince Yeonryeong.</i>

10
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:56,930
<i>I don't care about whatever you say.</i>

11
00:00:56,930 --> 00:00:58,890
<i>Don't touch Inspector Han who is innocent!</i>

12
00:00:58,890 --> 00:01:02,200
<i>The one who lured him into a trap was not me but you, Your Highness!</i>

13
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,250
<i>What did you think you could do?</i>

14
00:01:04,250 --> 00:01:09,700
<i>You who don't have even a sliver of power to protect a mere inspector. What could you possibly do?</i>

15
00:01:09,700 --> 00:01:15,620
<i>Conscience without power is weak.</i>

16
00:01:16,870 --> 00:01:20,570
<i>You should have known these things before you picked a fight, Your Highness.</i>

17
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,140
Your Highness, what's going on?

18
00:01:24,140 --> 00:01:25,810
Why are you like this?

19
00:01:25,810 --> 00:01:28,230
He is right.

20
00:01:28,230 --> 00:01:33,240
It was something someone like me could not achieve.

21
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,180
I apologize,

22
00:01:38,180 --> 00:01:41,350
but I do not understand what you mean.

23
00:01:41,350 --> 00:01:44,880
Why seat Prince Yeoning on the royal throne?

24
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:50,120
He, too, is of royal blood. He carries my blood and is rightfully a prince!

25
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:55,170
The prince I approve and choose to lead after me is Prince Yeoning.

26
00:01:58,700 --> 00:02:02,270
The only thing is this country's Noron, Soron, Namin,

27
00:02:02,270 --> 00:02:06,350
nor any other powers do not support him.

28
00:02:06,350 --> 00:02:11,140
What is the reason for telling me this?

29
00:02:11,140 --> 00:02:15,350
I, too, am a part of Noron which is one of those factions.

30
00:02:15,350 --> 00:02:19,750
Do you think I don't know of your doings?

31
00:02:23,640 --> 00:02:29,210
Among Norons, your power has become weakened,

32
00:02:29,210 --> 00:02:32,820
because you didn't succeed in fully covering up Prince Milpoong's doings.

33
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,110
Your Majesty!

34
00:02:37,690 --> 00:02:40,930
So what do you think, Inspector General,

35
00:02:40,930 --> 00:02:45,680
about being on Prince Yeoning's side?

36
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,670
Pardon?

37
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,800
I'm telling you to make the next king with your own hands.

38
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:06,740
Give Prince Yeoning the royal throne and with that power, become the leader of Noron.

39
00:03:18,130 --> 00:03:20,650
Your Majesty, this is...

40
00:03:20,650 --> 00:03:23,190
Take care of it quietly.

41
00:03:23,190 --> 00:03:28,660
No one can know about my condition yet.

42
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:40,110
<i>[Chapter 4: A Night of Wandering Fate]</i>

43
00:03:40,900 --> 00:03:44,210
This? It is for me.

44
00:03:44,210 --> 00:03:46,580
Do you know what it is?

45
00:03:46,580 --> 00:03:51,250
Yes, it's from Head Merchant Jang of the silk shop at the market.

46
00:03:51,250 --> 00:03:54,400
He's telling me to add to the fund that the inspectors created.

47
00:03:54,400 --> 00:04:00,070
You mean the relief fund that was created from a part of the inspectors' wages?

48
00:04:00,070 --> 00:04:05,430
You must know, too. You delivered famine relief crops before.

49
00:04:05,430 --> 00:04:07,730
Yes, now that I think about it.

50
00:04:07,730 --> 00:04:11,090
Since a few years ago, Head Merchant Jang has been chipping in.

51
00:04:11,090 --> 00:04:15,250
When the time came he always sent it to Saheonbu but for some reason, he sent it to my house this time.

52
00:04:15,250 --> 00:04:18,800
Then you mean it's not a big deal, right?

53
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:23,270
- Perhaps... <br>- Perhaps what?

54
00:04:32,870 --> 00:04:38,570
<i>Something you could not achieve? What do you mean by that, Your Highness?</i>

55
00:04:38,570 --> 00:04:40,840
<i>Curse me all you want</i>

56
00:04:40,840 --> 00:04:45,490
<i>but that person, Inspector Han, protect him no matter what.</i>

57
00:04:45,490 --> 00:04:49,640
<i>What does it mean? The words he said.</i>

58
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,990
<i>Something I need to do? What is it?</i>

59
00:04:53,990 --> 00:04:56,770
<i>With that, Noron will truly protect Prince Yeonryeong?</i>

60
00:04:56,770 --> 00:04:59,730
<i>You just need to state you lied as an informant.</i>

61
00:04:59,730 --> 00:05:04,170
<i>That it was all a scheme plotted by Inspector Han Jeong Seok.</i>

62
00:05:04,170 --> 00:05:07,440
<i>Why would anyone choose the more difficult path?</i>

63
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,350
<i>After all, didn't you do the same, Your Highness?</i>

64
00:05:11,350 --> 00:05:17,310
<i>Of course for me, facing it rather than retreating was easier.</i>

65
00:05:26,280 --> 00:05:29,250
<i>Then will you abandon Prince Yeonryeong?</i>

66
00:05:35,900 --> 00:05:38,810
Become what? Blood brothers?

67
00:05:38,810 --> 00:05:42,050
Yes. Prince Yeoning and I did.

68
00:05:42,050 --> 00:05:44,670
We decided to let you in as well.

69
00:05:44,670 --> 00:05:46,780
Specially as the maknae<i> (youngest)</i>.

70
00:05:46,780 --> 00:05:49,850
I did well, right? You're happy, right? I'm the only one who thinks of you, right?

71
00:05:49,850 --> 00:05:51,750
No, I don't want to.

72
00:05:51,750 --> 00:05:54,940
Why would I become brothers with people I don't know at all?

73
00:05:54,940 --> 00:05:59,440
What are you saying? Hey, then isn't Hyung Jeong Seok's family complete strangers, too?

74
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,500
They're my family.

75
00:06:01,500 --> 00:06:05,140
So it's the same in that you're not related by blood at all.

76
00:06:05,140 --> 00:06:08,500
If people share the same will and walk on the same road, then they're brothers.

77
00:06:08,500 --> 00:06:10,780
Why does blood matter?

78
00:06:10,780 --> 00:06:12,420
Did he agree?

79
00:06:12,420 --> 00:06:15,340
Did His Highness say that he will become your hyung?

80
00:06:15,340 --> 00:06:19,060
Well he did hold out a bit, but he was just doing that.

81
00:06:19,060 --> 00:06:21,620
That's our brother's charm.

82
00:06:23,210 --> 00:06:25,880
Hey, it's our brother.

83
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,770
Brother!

84
00:06:29,100 --> 00:06:32,510
Wow, I was just on my way to your place.

85
00:06:32,510 --> 00:06:35,150
I meet you here instead.

86
00:06:37,550 --> 00:06:40,260
You haven't had your lunch yet, right?

87
00:06:40,260 --> 00:06:44,630
The soup and rice here is amazing. If you have time, join us.

88
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,920
No. I don't want to at all.

89
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,510
- Let's go. <br>- Okay.

90
00:06:51,510 --> 00:06:54,000
- Brother. <br>- One moment, Your Highness.

91
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,420
I have something to ask you about yesterday.

92
00:06:57,420 --> 00:07:01,770
Why did you say that about Inspector Han?

93
00:07:01,770 --> 00:07:03,700
Curse you? What do you—

94
00:07:03,700 --> 00:07:07,080
Yes. We won't be meeting again,

95
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,790
so I will say one more thing.

96
00:07:10,850 --> 00:07:18,220
Go to Saheonbu. You don't have a moment to waste by talking to someone despicable like me.

97
00:07:18,220 --> 00:07:21,330
But Brother! Brother!

98
00:07:21,330 --> 00:07:24,330
Why is our brother being like that?

99
00:07:24,330 --> 00:07:26,620
What do you mean by yesterday?

100
00:07:30,540 --> 00:07:34,510
Bring all the alcohol and open the doors to let anyone in.

101
00:07:34,510 --> 00:07:39,660
Today, I and the rest of Hanyang will let go of our minds.

102
00:07:39,660 --> 00:07:43,240
Prince Yeoning as the king...

103
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,270
Prince Yeoning as the king?

104
00:07:46,270 --> 00:07:48,100
Does that make sense?

105
00:07:48,100 --> 00:07:49,780
How could a lowly blood?!

106
00:07:49,780 --> 00:07:53,200
<i>I'm telling you to make the next king with your own hands.</i>

107
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:58,580
<i>Give Prince Yeoning the royal throne and with that power, become the leader of Noron.</i>

108
00:08:01,590 --> 00:08:04,230
<i>However, it's true.</i>

109
00:08:04,230 --> 00:08:06,620
<i>If I can succeed,</i>

110
00:08:06,620 --> 00:08:11,000
<i>Min Jin Heon will bow down before me.</i>

111
00:08:12,410 --> 00:08:14,400
Inspector General, there's a huge issue.

112
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,370
Look at this.

113
00:08:20,550 --> 00:08:22,990
What did you say, Minister of the Interior?

114
00:08:22,990 --> 00:08:28,500
I said that the Noron will sincerely protect Prince Yeonryeong.

115
00:08:28,500 --> 00:08:33,870
Additionally, we will re-strengthen the discipline of this nation that was shaken.

116
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,820
Your Majesty, it's Chief Royal Secretary.

117
00:08:36,820 --> 00:08:40,590
He urgently requests a meeting regarding the Saheonbu.

118
00:08:41,770 --> 00:08:46,470
Let him in since it seems urgent.

119
00:08:53,260 --> 00:08:55,400
Why are you being like this?

120
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,260
I'm asking, what's the reason?

121
00:08:57,260 --> 00:09:01,110
Last night, Prince Yeoning came by Inspector Han's place.

122
00:09:01,110 --> 00:09:02,830
He said something strange like he did a moment ago.

123
00:09:02,830 --> 00:09:04,080
What do you mean?

124
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:08,030
Please go to Inspector Han. I'll return to the Saheonbu. Hurry.

125
00:09:13,390 --> 00:09:15,940
- Back off.<br> - What are you doing?

126
00:09:15,940 --> 00:09:18,810
Why are you investigating Inspector Han? Why!

127
00:09:18,810 --> 00:09:22,930
Hey, hey! Don't touch that! They're all files from investigations!

128
00:09:22,930 --> 00:09:25,170
Search thoroughly.

129
00:09:25,170 --> 00:09:28,650
You will need to open up everything, even brush cases like this.

130
00:09:28,650 --> 00:09:31,220
So what have you found?

131
00:09:31,220 --> 00:09:34,310
Back off.

132
00:09:40,470 --> 00:09:43,910
Answer me. What are you looking for by doing this?

133
00:09:43,910 --> 00:09:46,420
Why? If I tell you, will you hand it over?

134
00:09:46,420 --> 00:09:49,300
- Sir!<br> - I received a letter exposing

135
00:09:49,300 --> 00:09:52,700
that your boss, Han Jeong Seok, created a false testimony.

136
00:09:52,700 --> 00:09:54,820
Whose letter is it?

137
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,480
Prince Yeoning wrote it.

138
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,370
A letter by Prince Yeoning?

139
00:10:01,370 --> 00:10:04,200
He retracted his testimony?

140
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:05,960
Yes.

141
00:10:06,990 --> 00:10:09,440
Saying that he fell for your boss's enticement.

142
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:15,440
That he was convinced momentarily because of his feelings against Prince Milpoong.

143
00:10:20,170 --> 00:10:23,170
You actually believe the likes of these words?

144
00:10:23,170 --> 00:10:28,220
But you all are well aware of the kind of person Inspector Han is!

145
00:10:28,220 --> 00:10:32,210
Like you, they must have all believed in Inspector Han.

146
00:10:32,210 --> 00:10:34,900
Since he acted like he was the most virtuous one in the world.

147
00:10:34,900 --> 00:10:38,390
But Inspector Han was merely a corrupt official.

148
00:10:38,390 --> 00:10:41,040
As if coercing a false testimony is not enough,

149
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,440
he was taking filthy bribes secretly.

150
00:10:46,030 --> 00:10:48,640
Bribes?

151
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,900
What in the world are you saying?

152
00:10:57,940 --> 00:10:59,310
Do you have anything to say?

153
00:10:59,310 --> 00:11:02,060
I hear Prince Yeoning retracted his testimony.

154
00:11:02,060 --> 00:11:06,750
That's why I should have been made an even more corrupt inspector,

155
00:11:06,750 --> 00:11:10,410
so that the tables can be turned more smoothly

156
00:11:10,410 --> 00:11:13,970
and they can make a good example out of me.

157
00:11:13,970 --> 00:11:16,800
Father. Father.

158
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,270
I want to believe you but there's nothing to support your claim.

159
00:11:19,270 --> 00:11:22,170
The testimony and evidence are too clear.

160
00:11:23,010 --> 00:11:24,650
Father.

161
00:11:24,650 --> 00:11:26,050
Carry it out.

162
00:11:26,050 --> 00:11:28,610
- Husband. <br>- Father!

163
00:11:28,610 --> 00:11:32,090
- Father. <br>- Husband.

164
00:11:32,090 --> 00:11:36,510
Brother! What are you guys?

165
00:11:36,510 --> 00:11:38,300
Get lost! Don't you hear me?

166
00:11:38,300 --> 00:11:40,750
Shove this dog crap right away!

167
00:11:40,750 --> 00:11:43,150
Move aside, Moon Soo.

168
00:11:45,700 --> 00:11:47,700
You cannot block the enforcement by Saheonbu.

169
00:11:47,700 --> 00:11:51,110
Brother. Why can't I?

170
00:11:51,110 --> 00:11:53,570
They are the ones who actually defied the national law.

171
00:11:53,570 --> 00:11:56,180
The ones who broke the law and fabricated this crime are elsewhere.

172
00:11:56,180 --> 00:11:57,560
Why can't I block them?

173
00:11:57,560 --> 00:12:02,070
So, will you be like them too?

174
00:12:02,070 --> 00:12:06,660
Will you disregard the law as a joke and stand above it too?

175
00:12:08,860 --> 00:12:15,050
One day, for sure, you will become a righteous officer in Saheonbu, Moon Soo.

176
00:12:15,050 --> 00:12:20,330
At that time, you must be a man who wins, not with power, but with the law.

177
00:12:20,330 --> 00:12:24,390
In this world, to those who will do anything for power,

178
00:12:24,390 --> 00:12:27,740
you must show them

179
00:12:27,740 --> 00:12:30,620
that the law wins in the end.

180
00:12:30,620 --> 00:12:32,820
Brother.

181
00:12:32,820 --> 00:12:35,330
Drag him away.

182
00:12:35,330 --> 00:12:39,230
- Husband. <br>- Father.

183
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:46,510
Father! Father!

184
00:12:46,510 --> 00:12:48,780
Father!

185
00:12:50,390 --> 00:12:53,170
Father!

186
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,930
Why is this so messed up?

187
00:12:59,930 --> 00:13:02,250
But we were winning!

188
00:13:03,290 --> 00:13:06,310
We almost won it all!

189
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,090
Saheonbu is in a wreck.

190
00:13:13,090 --> 00:13:15,000
Is that so?

191
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,000
There must have been another way.

192
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,400
It should've been enough to give just Prince Yeoning a dressing-down.

193
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,110
But fabricated testimony and bribery too?

194
00:13:22,110 --> 00:13:24,990
Why did you have to touch Saheonbu's prestige too?

195
00:13:24,990 --> 00:13:31,450
Be careful now. Someone might misunderstand you and think someone did this on purpose.

196
00:13:31,450 --> 00:13:37,040
We had no choice but to abandon Prince Milpoong and choose Prince Yeonryeong.

197
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:42,320
Will it really suffice if Prince Yeoning is the only one learning a lesson from this debacle

198
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:47,380
when he's a meaningless man whose existence makes no difference?

199
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:52,110
Cut if off. The stump is rotten so the other ones will die too.

200
00:13:52,110 --> 00:13:54,310
Yes, Your Excellency.

201
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,210
Inspector Han's case will serve as a good example.

202
00:13:59,210 --> 00:14:01,930
Other officials who've made grave miscalculations

203
00:14:01,930 --> 00:14:04,880
will realize through this example

204
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,970
that they can be cut along with a rotten tree if they hang around one.

205
00:14:08,970 --> 00:14:12,210
Still. I should've known, as the chief of Saheonbu.

206
00:14:12,210 --> 00:14:16,020
- At least clue me in on it first . . . <br>- Why?

207
00:14:16,020 --> 00:14:19,320
When it's no issue that you didn't know.

208
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:26,290
Even if you knew, you wouldn't have been able to do anything about it anyway.

209
00:14:40,770 --> 00:14:42,550
What did Minister of Interior say?

210
00:14:42,550 --> 00:14:45,170
Was he aware of it?

211
00:14:45,170 --> 00:14:48,380
Is he someone who would say he knew if he knew?

212
00:14:48,380 --> 00:14:50,780
Why do you ask me something obvious?

213
00:14:54,330 --> 00:14:58,140
But My Lord, even then, without a single word to you

214
00:14:58,140 --> 00:15:00,970
he's put our entire Saheonbu down!

215
00:15:00,970 --> 00:15:03,670
I think this is a warning to us.

216
00:15:03,670 --> 00:15:08,120
He wants to show us what will happen if we are defiant.

217
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,700
As if we don't already know you're distinguished scholars, you sure are so smart!

218
00:15:10,700 --> 00:15:12,550
You know so well but you disobeyed an order?

219
00:15:12,550 --> 00:15:16,220
It was you who arrested Prince Milpoong!

220
00:15:19,530 --> 00:15:24,160
Enough of that. You're all noisy so get out.

221
00:15:25,820 --> 00:15:30,140
Aren't you getting out? So you disobey on this too now?

222
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,110
Your Majesty.

223
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:04,600
In there should be a way to break through the current trouble.

224
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,370
Do you mean, a report from the royal investigation bureau?

225
00:16:07,370 --> 00:16:12,330
But Saheonbu cannot move based on intelligence from the Royal Investigation Bureau, an agency reporting directly to the king.

226
00:16:12,330 --> 00:16:17,960
- In doing so . . . <br>- No, I mean, give it to Prince Yeoning.

227
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:22,370
If it's that child, he will get it done. To Prince Yeoning.

228
00:16:29,410 --> 00:16:34,200
As soon as daylight breaks, have Prince Yeonryeong come into the palace.

229
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,840
Yes, Your Majesty.

230
00:16:44,550 --> 00:16:48,010
Geum. Please.

231
00:17:00,690 --> 00:17:07,100
Your Highness the Prince, don't just drink like that.

232
00:17:09,530 --> 00:17:13,300
Your Highness the Prince, please stop drinking now.

233
00:17:16,740 --> 00:17:19,310
Where are you going?

234
00:17:19,310 --> 00:17:24,150
- Oh, Your Highness the Prince, are you alright?<br> - No!

235
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,380
What I need now isn't you.

236
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,330
I didn't get drunk merely for that!

237
00:17:37,860 --> 00:17:40,660
Your Highness the Prince.

238
00:17:40,660 --> 00:17:44,600
Aigo.

239
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,690
Your Highness...

240
00:17:48,690 --> 00:17:53,080
Here. Take a drink from me too.

241
00:17:54,270 --> 00:17:59,040
Drink until you die. Enjoy to your heart's content!

242
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:06,380
Hooray!

243
00:18:06,380 --> 00:18:08,540
Really? Prince Yeoning, you mean?

244
00:18:08,540 --> 00:18:12,590
Yes, he's hired and opened up a gisaeng house for free and all the idle turds in the capital went there.

245
00:18:12,590 --> 00:18:14,880
What about our boys? Did they go too?

246
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,830
No, no. I told them not to even show their face around there in case trouble arises.

247
00:18:18,830 --> 00:18:22,460
Alright. You did well.

248
00:18:22,460 --> 00:18:26,300
But isn't that Prince Yeoning so funny?

249
00:18:26,300 --> 00:18:28,430
Funny? What about?

250
00:18:28,430 --> 00:18:31,080
He is. He went and testified by himself then he flipped it

251
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:35,040
and made a total fool out of that one inspector.

252
00:18:36,750 --> 00:18:38,930
What happened to that inspector then?

253
00:18:38,930 --> 00:18:43,370
It seems Head Merchant Jang of the silk shop confessed, as ordered, that he gave him bribes.

254
00:18:43,370 --> 00:18:45,500
What can a powerless merchant do?

255
00:18:45,500 --> 00:18:49,000
Fabricating testimony and bribery on top of it?

256
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,860
It will be hard for him to be spared.

257
00:18:51,860 --> 00:18:56,770
He was too naive. What's there to trust about a royal to cooperate with him? Seriously!

258
00:19:06,140 --> 00:19:08,940
Where in the world did he go?

259
00:19:11,810 --> 00:19:13,900
Your Excellency?

260
00:19:13,900 --> 00:19:17,050
Your Excellency. Are you alright?

261
00:19:17,050 --> 00:19:18,060
Your Excellency.

262
00:19:18,060 --> 00:19:20,040
Ja Dong.

263
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,000
Your Highness the Prince.

264
00:19:24,310 --> 00:19:26,410
It's you.

265
00:19:29,110 --> 00:19:32,590
You have a master like me.

266
00:19:32,590 --> 00:19:34,890
How pitiful.

267
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,090
Your Highness the Prince. You are bleeding.

268
00:19:39,090 --> 00:19:40,330
I'll get a physician.

269
00:19:40,330 --> 00:19:42,600
For what?

270
00:19:46,500 --> 00:19:51,870
For a thing like me? For what?

271
00:19:51,870 --> 00:19:54,030
Your Highness.

272
00:19:54,030 --> 00:19:58,010
It'll just be a brief moment. Allow us to see His Highness the Prince.

273
00:19:58,010 --> 00:20:01,580
I'm not lying. He really isn't here. He didn't come home.

274
00:20:01,580 --> 00:20:03,480
Does that make sense right now?

275
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,000
It's already past the Hour of the Ox ( 1-3 am).

276
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,620
He's that kind of person by nature. He's a consummate libertine.

277
00:20:08,620 --> 00:20:10,880
Did you mingle with him, unaware of that?

278
00:20:11,770 --> 00:20:15,190
Then, please relay a message to him.

279
00:20:15,190 --> 00:20:20,400
They scheduled the cross-testimony between our lord and the prince at Saheonbu tomorrow.

280
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:24,910
There, he must reveal the truth again.

281
00:20:24,910 --> 00:20:28,960
Brother. We still believe in you, Prince.

282
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:34,330
We believe you wouldn't do this for no reason. There must be a reason for it.

283
00:20:34,330 --> 00:20:37,460
Alright. I will be sure to tell him.

284
00:20:38,490 --> 00:20:40,970
I plead of you.

285
00:20:42,610 --> 00:20:44,290
Let's go.

286
00:20:44,290 --> 00:20:47,670
We've been discourteous at such a late hour.

287
00:20:56,170 --> 00:20:57,730
Throw some salt after them <i>(erase the bad luck, traces of unwelcome visitors)</i>.

288
00:20:57,730 --> 00:21:02,330
Why are they bemoaning their own grievance here?

289
00:21:05,190 --> 00:21:07,750
As long as it's not her business?

290
00:21:07,750 --> 00:21:12,040
Madam, your life must be so carefree.

291
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,540
It's alright. You can go tattle.

292
00:21:14,540 --> 00:21:16,630
No, no.

293
00:21:17,310 --> 00:21:20,720
I have something to give to the master.

294
00:21:41,180 --> 00:21:45,020
But it's right, Prince.

295
00:21:45,020 --> 00:21:50,320
The hardships in this world, as long as it's not you, it's fine.

296
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:54,780
See nothing and hear nothing.

297
00:21:54,780 --> 00:21:57,890
That's how you can survive.

298
00:21:59,870 --> 00:22:03,760
I'd rather you knew nothing then.

299
00:22:08,260 --> 00:22:12,870
It's thanks to you, Prime Minister, that I am out safely.

300
00:22:12,870 --> 00:22:13,700
<i>[Prince Milpoong, Yi Tan (Noron)]</i>

301
00:22:13,700 --> 00:22:16,180
I bid you my gratitude.

302
00:22:16,870 --> 00:22:19,620
Why are you behaving in a way that's against the social norms and mores <i>(a royal bowing down to a non-royal)</i>?

303
00:22:19,620 --> 00:22:23,290
A royal bidding greeting to a subject?

304
00:22:25,700 --> 00:22:27,880
Prince Milpoong's face is looking quite pale.

305
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,770
Should I bring out some restoratives?

306
00:22:29,770 --> 00:22:32,930
Why at my house?

307
00:22:32,930 --> 00:22:34,770
We just ate breakfast not long ago.

308
00:22:34,770 --> 00:22:35,890
<i>[Kim Chang Joong, Prime Minister (Noron)]</i>

309
00:22:35,890 --> 00:22:40,510
His Highness the Prince must be busy too so we should tell him to go now.

310
00:22:44,230 --> 00:22:46,300
Minister of Interior!

311
00:22:46,300 --> 00:22:50,800
You came out, Prince Milpoong and we meet here.

312
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:52,600
Minister of Interior.

313
00:22:53,810 --> 00:22:56,790
Yes. You stopped by my home too?

314
00:22:56,790 --> 00:23:00,750
I went to you first, of course. Without delay.

315
00:23:00,750 --> 00:23:06,050
How great it would have been had you at least feigned this humility before.

316
00:23:06,050 --> 00:23:06,830
What?

317
00:23:06,830 --> 00:23:13,470
If you knew you couldn't amount to much, you shouldn't have thrown such a fit.

318
00:23:13,470 --> 00:23:16,050
Your Excellency, what did you just say to me?

319
00:23:16,050 --> 00:23:18,340
You must have heard it from Prime Minister's concubine.

320
00:23:18,340 --> 00:23:21,070
Who is the next king!

321
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,160
No. No.

322
00:23:27,020 --> 00:23:29,670
It can't be.

323
00:23:29,670 --> 00:23:32,390
Noron can't abandon me.

324
00:23:36,940 --> 00:23:39,570
This nation belongs to my grandfather, Crown Prince Sohyeon.

325
00:23:39,570 --> 00:23:43,820
Not the old geezer on the throne now, but my grandfather, my father!

326
00:23:43,820 --> 00:23:45,920
And another thing I said to you!

327
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,280
That the pillars supporting this nation are the Norons!

328
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:56,420
If you wanted to play the king still, you should have kept your surroundings tidy,

329
00:23:56,420 --> 00:23:59,360
even if we were the ones doing everything.

330
00:23:59,360 --> 00:24:00,370
Minister of Interior!

331
00:24:00,370 --> 00:24:03,590
An envoy entourage will leave for the Qing Dynasty tomorrow.

332
00:24:05,270 --> 00:24:07,250
Go with them.

333
00:24:07,250 --> 00:24:14,640
In the future, you can beg leniency from the new king and open a way for you to survive.

334
00:24:17,620 --> 00:24:19,960
No, no. You can't!

335
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,230
Don't abandon me.

336
00:24:22,230 --> 00:24:26,640
Please! Please! I'll do anything you say.

337
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,350
When I see the likes of you.

338
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:41,290
Status is only a delusion. Humans are just talking beasts.

339
00:24:41,290 --> 00:24:43,510
You'll find that out.

340
00:24:44,470 --> 00:24:47,870
And the world still has to go on.

341
00:24:47,870 --> 00:24:53,340
So a thing like you will be spared to live too.

342
00:25:12,020 --> 00:25:15,750
Get on up. That's not your seat, Your Highness the Prince.

343
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:19,190
Don't you hear me?

344
00:25:19,190 --> 00:25:22,200
You can't sit on the dirt ground like that.

345
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:26,150
Yoon Yeong. It's all over.

346
00:25:26,150 --> 00:25:28,080
It's all over, Yoon Yeong.

347
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,510
No! It's not over.

348
00:25:31,510 --> 00:25:34,910
Who says to end it?

349
00:25:34,910 --> 00:25:38,270
Look at me. You said you'd make me the queen.

350
00:25:38,270 --> 00:25:40,840
That's why I chose you.

351
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:44,270
That's why I even became that old geezer's concubine.

352
00:25:44,270 --> 00:25:46,400
Yoon Yeong.

353
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:50,540
This nation is yours. You're going to let them snatch it from you like this?

354
00:25:50,540 --> 00:25:54,890
Show them who you are! If they try to snatch yours,

355
00:25:54,890 --> 00:25:57,160
just what will happen to them!

356
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:02,260
Prince Yeoning. This all,

357
00:26:02,260 --> 00:26:05,390
was all because of that scum!

358
00:26:05,390 --> 00:26:07,020
That scum ruined me.

359
00:26:07,020 --> 00:26:10,070
You're not ruined.

360
00:26:10,070 --> 00:26:16,340
You can claim the royal throne back anytime!

361
00:26:21,770 --> 00:26:24,170
Please put it in the prince's room.

362
00:26:26,980 --> 00:26:31,470
What is this? Who put this in my room?

363
00:26:31,470 --> 00:26:33,580
Your Highness the Prince.

364
00:26:33,580 --> 00:26:38,520
I put it there at night. Sam Wol said she received it.

365
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:50,600
Your Majesty.

366
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:57,000
I heard you were looking for me.

367
00:27:00,870 --> 00:27:02,860
Your Excellency. This is . . .

368
00:27:02,860 --> 00:27:05,190
Intimate intelligence on Prince Milpoong.

369
00:27:05,190 --> 00:27:09,330
His conduct in private life and the corpse record of his murders.

370
00:27:09,330 --> 00:27:10,250
<i>[Corpse Record: Ledger counting murdered bodies]</i>

371
00:27:10,250 --> 00:27:13,770
Perhaps something of this nature is from Royal Investigation Bureau.

372
00:27:13,770 --> 00:27:17,630
Why do you have these? Who on earth gave them to you?

373
00:27:17,630 --> 00:27:20,280
Whoever it is, it's someone who shares my conviction.

374
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:26,530
Someone who wants to turn this situation around. Someone who wants to protect the innocent before it's too late.
