Episode 49

Grandmother, great-grandmother.

I wish you all the best.

Thank you.

I can't believe you have grown so much.

I heard...

you stay up too late studying.

It's good to learn,
but try not to neglect your health.

Don't worry.

Please excuse me.

I'm glad to see
Prince Yoong is doing so well.

You're a great mother, Queen Junghyun.

The prince always does as I say.

He's a good boy.

He's doing well because of
your love and effort.

You're doing great.

Thank you.

I think we should make him
crown prince this year.

Announcing him as heir
will solidify your reign.

I'll ask the ministers what they think.

Alright. Get it over and done with
as soon as possible.

The prince...

mustn't be made crown prince.

Yes. He still remembers the deposal.

If he succeeds to the throne,
he'll kill us for deposing his mother.

But he's the heir.

How can we stop his appointment?

Whatever the cost, we must delay it
until the queen has a son.

Lord Jo, happy new year.

Let's all work together
and make this a good one.

We will.

Why are you so gloomy?

My husband...

moved in with his mistress.

I never thought
this would ever happen to me.

I'll help you get rid of her.

- What? Really?
- Trust me.

But keep it a secret from Lord Jo.

Of course. I'd give you anything
if you'd do that for me.

Happy new year.

Thanks.

I wish you the best.

Good luck with the exams.

Go on.

Alright.

You get a penny each.
You can go buy candy.

Thank you.

Here.

Another year with
my precious only daughter.

I miss the games that we played...

Forget about that.

Yes, you got thrown out.

What's the point?

What?!

Am I wrong?!

- Not again.
- You heard her.

Let's play a game then.

- Mother.
- Ma'am.

We came to say happy new year.

Welcome. Come on inside.

I wish you the best.
Good luck with everything.

Sorry, but I have no money to give you.

Tell their fortunes for this year.

- Good idea.
- Yes, please.

Alright.

Here.

Ja-chi, you suffered last year.
This year will be easier.

Thank you.

Gwi-nam, you'll get promoted.

Your superiors will think highly of you.

Thank you.

So-woon, be careful with women.

What problem could a eunuch have?

The maids can't get enough of you.

Yeah...

I don't care about women.

- I'm next.
- Let's see...

You'll meet someone this year.

I will?

You'll get married.

I'm getting married.

- Congrats.
- Thanks.

Chun-dong, you're last.

You'll have to part with someone.

What do you mean?

Partings are accompanied by
new acquaintances.

This is just for fun.
Don't take it too seriously.

Don't you mind staying indoors all day?

You've prayed enough for Sulyoung.

I killed someone who helped me.

I could never pray or repent
enough for what I did.

What now? Will you return
to the palace or stay at my house?

I don't know yet.

Think carefully about it.

I don't know if you will
spill the beans,

but I don't want to have to kill you.

Think carefully and let me know.

The ministers will discuss
the crown prince appointment.

Then what will happen to Mrs. Yoon?

Will she be reinstated?

Or will she not be?

I'm not worried about her.
I'm worried about what will happen.

What?

The ministers will try
to delay the appointment.

No one knows what will happen
to Mrs. Yoon or her son.

I want to appoint Yoong as crown prince.
When would be a good time?

What's wrong?|

I don't think this is a good time.

What do you mean by that?

The prince's mother was deposed.

You can appoint her son as crown prince,

but what will you do
about his deposed mother?

He's right.

Mrs. Yoon is a commoner.

Her son can't be crown prince.
It will mess up all our laws.

You're using her
as an excuse to disobey me?

Would we dare oppose something
that must be done one day?

We just want you to...

think about this very carefully.

The ministers want to delay
appointing the crown prince?

How is this possible?

This is a very important issue.
We can't ignore Mrs. Yoon's status.

Mrs. Yoon will always pose a problem.

What should we do about her?

We must either
exile her or reinstate her.

Reinstate her? Then what
about Queen Junghyun?

If that's not possible...

then we must find another way.

What should we do now?
The king raised the issue himself.

We put it off for now, but for how long?

We must end this for good,

or hope Mrs. Yoon passes away soon.

We can't just sit and wait.

Then... ?

None of us are safe
for as long as they are alive.

Who dies first is a matter of time.

Neither of them should live.

Have you discussed
appointing the crown prince?

The ministers are against it
because of Mrs. Yoon.

She should be reinstated
and Yoong made crown prince.

But then your position
will be threatened.

I made up my mind
the day I became queen.

I've always been prepared
to step down if she returns.

I regret ever making you
the king's concubine.

All this trouble and stress
is just too much for you.

Don't say that.

I've never resented you.

It's my fate to...

What's wrong, Your Highness?

Your Highness.

Are you alright? Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Gabi, call for the doctor.

Your Highness.

Dr. Yang, are you sure she's pregnant?

Yes. She has been for three months.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

But how come she showed
no symptoms up until now?

She's good-natured.
I guess the baby is too.

This is such good news.

This room must be
kept clean at all times, alright?

Yes, sir.

I heard you checked on
the queen. Is she alright?

Queen Junghyun is pregnant.

What?

It's good news,

but I feel so uneasy.

What'll happen to Mrs. Yoon
if the queen has a son?

Or rather, how will the prince
survive with no one to trust?

I'm really worried.

The queen is pregnant.

So now...

Why are you here so late?

I need to ask you a favor.

I'm listening.

Please protect Prince Yoong.

What?

The queen is pregnant.

If she has a son, Prince Yoong's life
will hang in the balance.

You must rush his appointment
as crown prince.

I'm a mere eunuch.
What right do I have to do so?

You know the king better than anyone.

If you persuade him,
the ministers won't be able to object.

I told Queen Insoo
that I'd stay out of politics.

But you sided with her
to depose the prince's mother.

Can you say this has
nothing to do with our department?

What?

Are you doubting me?

I know the duties of a eunuch very well.

But you and I, every single eunuch...
We're all human beings.

I hope...

you don't become too inhumane.

If that's all, you may leave.

What brings you here?

I'm here to resolve your worries.

My worries?

Any cause for future trouble
must be nipped in the bud.

Meaning... ?

I'm talking about Mrs. Yoon.

Is this your idea or Mr. Jo's?

Mr. Jo hasn't made up his mind yet.

If you get rid of my worries for me,
I'll reward you for it.

Who's there?

Who sent you?
The ministers or the royal family?

I was deposed, but I used to be queen.

Leave immediately.

How dare you attack the prince's mother.

Go away!

Why are you doing this?

What's going on?

Are you alright?

I'm fine, don't worry.

What happened?

An assassin attacked me.

You got deposed, and now assassins?

How could this happen to you?

Let's go inside.

You saved my life once again.

I'm glad you're alright.

But why are you here
at this time of night?

Queen Junghee is pregnant.
I came to tell you that.

I guess I should congratulate her.

I'll report to the authorities and
arrange for some bodyguards right away.

It won't help.
The ministers are involved.

What do you mean?

Take this.

Whose ID tag is this?

It belongs to the assassin we met.

How did you get hurt?

I would've told you if it were
something you should've known about.

I'm sorry.

Don't tell a soul about this, alright?

Yes, sir.

What were you looking at?

It's nothing.

Did you find it somewhere?

A foolish eunuch dropped his ID tag.

I guess you're not the only idiot here.

Return it to the owner tomorrow.

What? An assassin
attacked her last night?

Her life is in danger.

She was deposed a long time ago.
Who on earth would want her dead?

I think it's those who are against
her son becoming crown prince.

Oh dear... Oh dear...

Although she was deposed,
she's the prince's birth mother.

Harming her is like harming the prince.

And that is a threat
to the royal family.

Please send your soldiers
to guard her house.

Alright, I'll give the order.

Did you see who he was?

I didn't, but I'm sure he's a eunuch.

Why is that?

He dropped this ID tag last night.

I'm here as a subordinate, not your son.

What?

I hope you'll find out
who tried to harm Mrs. Yoon...

and do your duty as Head of Eunuchs.

Guard all the paths.

Yes, sir.

The king sent the men to protect you
before the crown prince's appointment.

Doesn't this prove that
the king still loves you?

Don't cause any trouble,
for the prince's sake.

You must be careful.

Don't worry, I'm not a child.

I'll watch my tongue.

You'll be reinstated as soon as
your son becomes crown prince.

Congratulations, mother.
Give birth to a healthy son.

Thank you.

I wish you have a son.
It will bring glory to us all.

It will.

Prince Yoong, can you excuse us now?

I will. Enjoy your conversation.

What is it?

When I think of Mrs. Yoon,
I feel bad about being pregnant.

I know that you're worried too.

Even if I do have a son,

I won't expect you
to make him crown prince.

Your saying that
took a weight off my shoulders.

Thank you for being understanding.

Did you check?

No one entered the palace
without their ID today.

Then check who's not on duty.

Mr. Jung didn't come in.

What? Is that true?

Yes. I heard he called in sick
for some reason.

Why did you send soldiers
to guard Mrs. Yoon's home?

I heard an assassin attacked her.
It's for her own protection.

An assassin? What nonsense.

Who would attack a deposed queen?

- Mr. Kim witnessed it.
- Mr. Kim?

He was loyal to Mrs. Yoon
even before she entered the palace.

He arranged her outings,

alienated her from you,
and caused chaos.

You sent soldiers
just because he told you to?

But he has no reason to lie to me.

He wants you to feel sorry
for her and her son.

Mrs. Yoon must be safe,
for her son's sake.

I think she staged the attack herself.

Your Majesty.

Recall the men. The ministers
might misunderstand your intention.

If someone tried to harm Mrs. Yoon,
I'm sure it was Mr. Jung.

I think so too.

So why won't you...

question him?

Why can't you control your own son?!

What do you mean?

You helped depose Mrs. Yoon,
so I forgave Mr. Kim and left you alone.

So why is he visiting Mrs. Yoon...

and telling the king about assassins?

No wonder there were rumors
that he was Mrs. Yoon's lover.

My son never was
and never will be her lover.

Saying such a thing is like
slandering your own name.

I'm warning you to make sure
such rumors never circulate.

Do you want me
to beat Mr. Kim until he accepts?

It's all my fault.

I'll talk to him and make sure
he never does that again.

If I ever hear about him seeing
Mrs. Yoon again, I won't forgive you.

Mr. Jung called in sick today.
Why isn't he at home?

I don't know.

Miss Hong, why are you here?

Mr. Jung looked after
my family until now.

I'm well enough to return to the palace.

Where is Sulyoung?

I heard she's at some temple.

Perhaps you could tell me
where Mr. Jung was last night.

He caught a severe cold.
He stayed home all night.

Really?

I nursed him all night, so it's true.

What is the urgent news?

I tried to, but failed
to kill Mrs. Yoon.

What?

Why are you telling me this?

You're afraid you'll get caught?

I did it for our department.

You're saying that killing
the prince's mother will do us good?

The ministers don't want to
appoint a crown prince.

If Mrs. Yoon lives, her son
might never become crown prince.

And that will threaten
the royal family's legitimacy.

Shut it!

How dare you try to
talk your way out of this!

I thought you of all people
would understand.

Was I wrong?

It's wrong to kill the prince's mother!

Have you forgotten what you did in 1 4 5 7?

What?

You said you supported
the revolt to reinstate King Danjong.

But you changed sides...

and attacked the revolters
the very next day.

Are you insulting me right now?

King Danjong's supporters
called you a traitor,

but I believe you did the right thing
for the royals and our department.

What I tried to do is just the same.

How did you find out?

I hazarded a guess
from our dept. 's records.

I could've easily killed
Mrs. Yoon and Chuh-sun.

But I didn't want
to get on your bad side.

If you had hurt him,
I would've killed you.

I know that.

But as long as
Chuh-sun defends Mrs. Yoon,

our dept. will never
get along with the royals.

You must kill Mrs. Yoon, for our sake.

It's up to you.

I told you what I think.
I'll leave you now.

Han-soo.

Is this yours?

Shouldn't you be sweeping the grounds?

Mr. Jung.

Did you visit Mrs. Yoon last night?

Are you trying to frame me again?

If you're innocent, let me see your ID.

My ID?

If you don't have it,
I'll report you for attacking Mrs. Yoon.

Sure. I'm fed up with
playing along with you.

I'll show it to you.

Does that clear my name then?

Don't you ever
blame me for anything again.

Father, it's me.

Do you know who the ID belongs to?

Don't mention the ID again.

- What are you... ?
- And...

Stop defending Mrs. Yoon from now on.

It's an order from your superior.

I cannot obey that.

What?

Did you return the ID to Mr. Jung?

- Did you really?
- I told you...

not to mention it!

I won't do that, even if you disown me.

If that's an order from my superior,
then I'd rather resign than obey.

Chuh-sun...

You cover up the truth
for the sake of the department.

I won't answer to you.

Why won't the ministers
appoint the crown prince?

We refuse to discuss the issue until...

the king decides
what to do with Mrs. Yoon.

What do you mean,
decide what to do with her?

We fear what might happen...

if he succeeds his father
and asks us about his mother.

Everyone is scared.

No one wants to bell the cat.

Recall the men you sent
to guard Mrs. Yoon's house.

You don't believe Chuh-sun either
about the assassin's attack?

I do, as a father and his superior.

But protecting her ahead of appointing
the crown prince can be misunderstood.

How so?

They'll think you want her reinstated.
They won't want her son to be heir.

I'll send my men to guard her,
so recall your soldiers.

Sir, I'll guard Mrs. Yoon's house.

No, I'll leave it to Mr. Jung.

That is like letting
the fox guard the henhouse.

Even a robber guards his own house well.

He's the right person
to protect Mrs. Yoon.

Give this letter to Chuh-sun
in August six years from now.

Stop sighing so much.

I'm afraid something bad
will happen to Chun-dong.

He's old enough to look out for himself.

His father got reinstated,
so he'll take care of him.

Life is but a dream.

Even the moon waxes and wanes.

- Father.
- Riches won't last forever...

- Mr. Kim.
- Even the moon waxes and wanes.

- Riches won't last forever.
- Chuh-sun.

Beodeul, why is he so drunk?

I don't know. I found him
lying in front of the gate.

Chuh-sun.

Why did you drink so much?

The fortune you told
last time was correct.

A parting... You're a great shaman.

What do you mean?

I'm going to resign.

Lord Jo will disown me too.

Let's go inside.

Help him, Gaedochi.

What are you staring at?
Get back inside and study.

Yes, sir.

What's wrong with him?
I thought he had a good life.

It's so good, he got bored.
I'm sure that's why he drank.

He's still upset
over Mrs. Yoon's deposal.

Look at him, he's lost so much weight.

He'll be fine after
a good night's sleep, so don't worry.

Is something the matter?

I couldn't prevent Mrs. Yoon's deposal,

and now Chuh-sun resents me
and I feel bad about it.

I'm sure they'll come to
understand you one day.

Why do you believe in me?

What if I deceived you too?

You wouldn't betray anyone
for your own good.

I believe in you.

How did I get here?

Drink this to aid your digestion.

You drank so much, you don't
remember anything. Is something wrong?

Not at all.

Then why do you want to resign?

I guess I just wanted your attention.

I should get back to work.

Chuh-sun, I was on my way to see you.

You want me to do something?

Come closer.

I didn't get to wish
my mother a happy new year.

Will you take my letter to her?

But that could get you into trouble.

Shh. We can keep it between us.

Will you do that?

Hello, Mr. Kim.

Where did all the soldiers go?

The king called them back.

Prince Yoong wrote to you.

How are you doing in the cold weather?

I'm so worried about you.

I can't stop thinking about you.

I miss you, but I can manage.

I won't cry, even if I want to.

Don't worry about me. I'm studying hard.

Be well until the day I can visit you.

Why didn't you send a reply?

He's only just getting over my deposal.
He misses me, but he's studying hard.

I shouldn't do anything to upset him.

And if...

people find out
I'm still in touch with him,

they might use it against him.

I have so much I want to say,
but I'll wait for my time.

I'll wait until he comes to the throne,

and comes to visit me in person.

Your Highness...

Did you give her the letter?

Yes.

But why didn't she send a reply?

Your mother cares about you very much.

But she doesn't want
to give you any trouble.

So she's keeping everything inside.

And she prays for you every single day.

For your health and safety.

Remember her love for you...

and study hard to become
the great king she wants you to be.

That's the best you can do for her.

Alright. I won't let my mother down.

I'll study hard and become a wise king.

Why do you refuse to discuss
when to appoint the crown prince?

We will not discuss that issue...

until you decide
what to do with Mrs. Yoon.

Are you all insisting
on going against me?

Minister Han.

Why are you using Mrs. Yoon
to delay the discussion?

We need to appoint a crown prince
to stabilize the government.

We all know how important it is...

to appoint a crown prince in time.

But if you don't
take care of Mrs. Yoon first,

the crown prince will lose
all respect in the future.

Please accept our advice.

Have you recovered?

I have, thanks to you.

I'm glad you're back.

I could do with some company.

I'll serve you as best I can.

We can't delay this any longer.

I'm sorry I can't control
my own ministers.

It's all Mrs. Yoon's fault.

Don't blame yourself.

Your mother is right.

I've thought of a way
to appease the ministers.

Tell me.

Queen Junghyun is pregnant,
so she can't be replaced.

So let's give Mrs. Yoon a title
and salary, as the prince's mother.

Then Prince Yoong...

won't be too upset about the deposal.

And the ministers won't
be able to delay this any longer.

I will accept your suggestion.

What do you think?

We should check on Mrs. Yoon
and see how she is doing first.

Yes, we should.

I heard you're guarding
Mrs. Yoon's house.

Yes, I am.

Check on how she spends her time.

I will.

- How are things?
- No one comes or goes.

I'm sorry to put you through this.

Have some warm water to bear the cold.

Thank you.

I'm so grateful that your men
are guarding us day and night.

How is she doing?

She's been doing better ever since
she got a letter from the prince.
