Episode 43.

Lord! General is here.

- Come in! - Please go in.

Lord!

Come close, general.

These are mines of Jin. There are 8 of them.

It takes time and enormous effort to find and develop,

so the government couldn't do it easily

but she did it, I'm grateful for her.

Yes, it's not easy. Please make a completement.

Yes, yes. But what I wanted to praise is that

you thought about to handing it over to me.

Why do you say that? All the lands belong to you, lord.

How could we own it!

It is right but isn't it the greed of merchant?

That sort of greed makes a day

but not for 100 days.

I see the future.

If you thought about me, I'm little sad.

Would I ever do that?

If not, why did you inspect my store

with military polices?

Inspection?

Since I crossed the border of Baekjae,

without a doubt! I've never violated the law.

Also when business wasn't good, I still had your share.

As profit increased, I have reported it to you.

I know, how would I not know that?

I've proceeded a business without informing you is that

I couldn't guarantee the result.

Mine is like that. I've put effort to dig the mineral

but most of time, it doesn't have much quantity.

After it is investigated and when everything is certain.

I wanted to report it to you.

I know, I know!

Lord! I'm innocent.

The moment, you suspect me,

I can't lead my store in Baekjae anymore.

The rumor of inspection in my store,

all the trades will be cancelled,

and I know that and I won't do that stupid things.

Uh- huh! I told you it's not like that!

Lord! My store belongs to you.

To my men, small village of small region of Baekjae,

wherever it is, if there's any useful information,

I told them to bring it.

So, lord! Please trust my loyalty!

Yes, yes, I got it! I think general wanted to

do his job very carefully and perfectly.

So relieve your anger.

Uh- huh! Relieve it!

Uh- huh! You're stubborn. What can I do for you?

Honestly after you grabbed the throne,

I thought you'd abandon me! I was so upset that

I couldn't eat properly for few days.

Offer me a meal please! Then I'll let it go.

Yes, alright. Alright!

I'll order very descent meal.

And give the development rights for all 8 mines to her!

Lord!

Now, you're relieved?

Lord! I appreicated it so much.

Lord! Please scold few words to general.

Military should grasp all the merchant stores.

But he didn't report any of it to you, lord.

Anyway, he favors Abigi too obviously.

Abigi made a huge distribution.

General! The thieves I informed you about,

it's happening all over the country.

What is the defense minister doing,

he can't rule those thieves in village!

The look of Giroo!

We have Sir Heuk here, I'm very relaxed.

Don't worry. I'm the one serving the King!

Yes! So I'm very secured.

I see you without any greed or evil deed,

devote yourself for the King.

But general seems to have greed of his own.

Yes! He's like that!

You're the only one to restrain general.

But this guy is a smart ass.

Why? Aren't you good as him?

Of course! Loyalty doesn't come from the head.

Yes, it's only from the heart.

That's what I mean! But the lord doesn't know

his greed and trusts him too much.

Right, it's not good for King.

The lord didn't know what happened to my store.

- Did he? - No!

If unreported things pile up,

the power will lean towards general,

and the authority of the King will be weakened.

Then what has to be done?

As I heard the story of King Jinheung in Silla,

to distinguish the loyal servants of his,

he tested them. Would you want to know?

What was it?

One is the appeal of Abigi's secrets,

another one is the appeal of Jin's secrets.

I'll report them to internal affair, and see both come to you.

Do you hate him that much?

Lord! Please don't think of me

as a coward who hates general.

I only have loyalty towards you, lord.

So I studied how do Kings of nation

distinguish loyal and treacherous servants,

and how they take precautious against them.

You studied it?

Yes, lord!

Right, what does it say?

Whether trusted servants were using ways

to block the ears of King,

or eyes of the King, they need to be tested.

So please don't misunderstand my intention,

just try it sometimes, lord.

Yes, I got it. You studied for me, do it.

Yes, lord!

Report one in your name. Another one in your name.

- Yes. - Yes.

- Are these all? - Yes, lord.

- Go and get general. - Yes, lord.

Wasn't there the appeal of Abigi?

Executive Sa Dokwang is here.

Let him in.

What do you need?

Lord! The problem of thieves are quite serious.

Quite serious?

I'm terribly sorry but last night they intruded in my residence.

And at dawn, the goods delivered from Nosaji to palace,

thieves encountered it on the mountain.

What? They touched the Imperial's goods?

And if it happened at the same in different places,

it means they're in groups.

Lord! Even if it's matter of suburbans,

military should step in this.

But general carries it to the defense minister.

General is going in.

What did military police do?

I told you to arrest thieves who shake off people,

how did let them intrude minister of national affair?

And steal the goods of Imperial?

I'm terribly sorry.

The priority comes first!

It's not selecting appeals that come to me!

Right now, petrol each suburban and report the situation!

Yes, lord!

How did it happen?

Why did 2 ministers inform important matter

to the King before informing me?

I replied that bandits are in charge of the defense division,

sir executive was very furious.

That's why he informed the King directly.

So what happened?

I thought they were just thieves.

But it happens too frequently all over the country,

and they get wilder and wilder.

I see.

I will inspect 5 suburbans right now, so perpare it.

What happened?

Yes, I caught a thief around here and questioned,

They said that they're the one.

Are they thieves of this region?

- Yes. - But,

How did they get so wilder?

They used to rub small amount of people' belongings,

But lately, they're after the government's properties,

And from that, small amounts are scattered to people.

- What? - So now,

People don't assist to arrest them, rather support them now.

How did they intrude to minister's residence?

Well, we were informed of other areas,

so we were guarding the place

but it happened in bad way.

Do they sell some at the market as well?

Notjust some, all of goods.

So before the sunrise,

people flocked to the market.

What? Then do people buy those all?

Yes! So we can't catch them.

They aren't the ex-convicts?

We arreseted them 4 days ago, they fell off in pieces.

And more intolerable thing is,

What is it?

Well, the content that you killed Prince Aja!

Where is it attached!

In few spots of market.

I don't know why bandits are raging in all regions

And what the poster is for.

Did you see any poster on the way?

Nosaji was just thieves of the region! No poster!

Then, only our region has that?

Well, it has to be searched more.

Perhaps, can it be from field slaves?

No! It's not possible.

- Yeah? - They were busy doing their work.

Mines and construction give them no time.

Are Jang and Mok Rasoo still in the mine?

Yes.

What is it? Take it off!

Take your straw shoes off, bastard!

- Dust off! Dust off! - Open it wide.

Open it!

Ah! Wider, ah!

Next.

Ah!

Take it off! Take it off!

They are not like that. Can't you tell by looking at them?

I don't know! We do what we're told to do, idiot!

- It's done. Examine me. - Come here!

Open wide!

Next! Strip!

Long time no see.

What's your business here?

Theives are happening all over, so we're inspecting.

I heard that, too.

You should be busy but why did you come here?

I heard a surprising news in Bukjung.

A surprisng news?

Relating the assassination of Prince Aja and king Wieduk,

The poster of slandering King is attached.

What? Who could!

And especially in Bukjung.

What do you mean?

Perhaps, you used Jang and Mok Rasoo

to do something else?

Are you relating poster and us!

Although we did a foolish thing, we don't dig our graves.

I don't know if the lord feels the same.

If you give up on Jang and surrender,

you can be free.

Doctor!

Let's just go.

Is it alright if we leave them like that?

They don't listen to us.

Idiots! You don't know how much I trembled just then.

You made me hard.

This is mine.

Hey! Come on, come on.

Do you like that much?

Of course! I don't know when but I will buy the land

Or salt to do business. Anyway I'm gonna do it something.

I thought you were living a day after a day.

You guys steal bits, when will be that?

No matter how long it will take, I can wait. That's mine.

Right, right.

Yes! Yes! I can wait.

That's my dream so I can bear anything.

You don't know what it feels like for you.

Let's go.

It's the desire of possession after all.

The desire of possess is their hope.

Even if reservior and mining are the same labouring,

reservior had no reward for them.

Nothing they can steal from either.

It's getting dark.

The national plan for hope of people

needs to satisfy their possessiveness.

And we have to make one.

Would I be able to find it?

Oh, you're saying weird things again.

We're speaking the same language, but I don't get it.

Let's go!

I hope it's not related to us.

Doctor! Please rest.

Yes, you can go and rest.

Yes.

Are you Mok Rasoo?

Yes, I am,

Hey! Idiots, what's the noise?

Don't your farmers say something?

- Say what? - About bandits.

Stolen goods are sold at the market early in the morning.

What? That sort of bandits are here?

It's notjust that.

Then, what else?

Well, you know...

Loud voice will cost me my life.

What? Prince Mookang!

Prince Mookang? What do you mean?

Quietly.

So they're notjust thieves!

They are the guards of 4th son of King Wieduk.

And they're notjust here.

But all over the country. So it's the problem in the palace.

This is it! Giroo came here for this.

- Are you sure? - Yes.

Who would? Who impersonate 4th son

and maneuvered people! Who is it!

They're notjust here, they are all over the nation.

I'm the Prince Mookang!

- What? - I'm the 4th son of Wieduk,

so leave your belongings and piss off.

What the hell are you saying?

This is the pickup line for recent robbing.

You guys are dumb.

- Guys! Kill them! - Yes!

Really? Did he impersonate Prince Mookang?

- Yes! - Impersonating!

I won't leave you them alone!

How did it happen?

I know.

Bandits are so many that general went down to check it,

perhaps these are the one?

Seochung, question him and find out in detail,

how far they have reached.

- Yes. - I,

I don't feel good about this.

Unrelate to falsehood, Duke Seodong will be in danger.

We have to collect more information.

Investigate this completely.

- You, too! - Yes!

What do you want?

Perhaps, does Giroo come here because of thieves?

How did you know? I was worried about it.

Then?

Yes, the Lord

The posters of murdering Prince and King were attached.

Pardon?

Why are you surprised? You didn't know this?

- No. - Then,

What do you know?

It's alright, say it!

The rumor is that theives serve Prince Mookang.

What?

He impersonates the Prince and maneuver people!

Oh, gosh.

Giroo suspected us so I denied it at once,

but if it is told to people, this won't go quietly.

Yes.

- Jang! - Doctor!

I was going to see you anyway.

Did you hear that?

I don't know what you're saying but follow me.

He attached the poster of Prince Aja nad King.

Who gave this to you?

A slave behind the cottage, and his name is Yonggak.

Yonggak?

I don't know how it happened.

They will strike here to take us out of here.

I was resenting that bandits impersonate the 4th son.

- What? - Giroo came here because of that.

Oh, damn it! The crisis will come again!

- What should I do? - Anyway the man who gave this letter,

I have to meet him again.

What's wrong, brother?

That happened?

So please bring some people.

Don't worry. Go and wait.

- Really. - Go in, stupid!

- Have a seat! - What's wrong?

What is wrong?

You idiot sent a bloody scary letter to my big brother?

Who asked you to deliver it?

I don't know either.

All I needed to do was to deliver it.

- So. - So, who was it?

Well, that's...

- That's. - You really!

So, I shouldn't say this.

- What? You shouldn't! - You know!

- You know brother Yaksan? - Yeah.

He actually joined the bandit of Mt. Yongbong.

- Did he? - So?

He delivered it through the farmer.

Really?

I don't know how to read so I just delivered it.

So the brother is there.

Don't say anything to him!

Do you know where your brother is?

I know nothing about him!

Even if he's a bandit, he's my brother.

Officials are looking for him and I can'tjust turn him in.

Are you sure that impersonating bandits Prince Mookang

Are raging all over?

Yes, as I put together what merchants said,

The man we caught, it's notjust him.

What a world, how could.

I hardly persuaded the Imperial guard to breathe in and out,

How could this be happening...

If it is informed to the King, would he watch this quietly?

Impersonating 4th son! Pick us up in 3 days later?

I'm Handol.

Gaedol.

Gaeddong.

Syedol.

Madangsye.

Dooil.

Maldduk.

- I'm Gguksye. - That was Prince Mookang?

- Yes, right. - I'm Mok Rasoo.

Right. Why do bandits steal and give it to people?

- Don't you think so? - Yes! Nobody can do that.

The poster came from him?

- I'm Hodong. - I'm Jinboo.

I need to check the place out.

You mean where bandits are?

As I see soldiers are talking, it will spread to palace soon.

I got to find out who and why.

I'll be careful.

What's wrong, brother?

I need to go there.

- What? - Where bandits were appeared,

Jukcheongjae, would I be able to come back before sunset?

You can, but why?

I must check something. Can I sneak out?

You can,

But if you get caught or late on time, we're finished.

I must go, help me.

It's your favor, so I'd do it.

But if it get wrong, our lives are finished.

I got it, I'll bring Yonggak.

Meet me where I used to drag you.

Yes.

I shouldn't do this.

Sorry, it's too important.

You can take me there and you can come back.

I see, come with me quietly.

It's done, except going back.

Let's cruise anyway.

Let's go!

Hey, idiot! This is Jukcheongjae.

Yes, we just need to wait here.

Yeah?

- Who are you people? - I'm a brother of Yaksan.

- Really? How about rest? - Please call him.

Maybe he wants to meet them.

Follow me.

Let's go!

- Brother! - Yonggak! What are you doing here?

You asked me to deliver the letter to Mok Rasoo.

Why, you couldn't do it?

It's not that, this man here is

the man with Dr. Mok, Eunsol Jang.

- Huh? Really? - Yes.

I didn't recognize you.

Prince! Prince! This man is the Eunsol.

Really, are you Jang, the Eunsol?

Yes, I am.

It's good to see you.

Please come inside. Please.

What are you doing?

That's what I want to ask you. Why are you doing this?

I know Prince Mookang.

But why are you impersonating the Prince?

How dare you impersonate the Prince,

and steal goods and varnish people with the poster!

Did you think your life would be safe here!

I've never impersonated him.

I heard bandits called you the Prince.

That doesn't work for me.

Who are you really?

Who are you?

When King Wieduk was present,

I was the low officer of the human resource management.

And when the King was assassinated at the market,

I was there too.

Then why are you doing this?

After what had happened, I couldn't work under the present King,

I left my job.

I spent days with liquor.

I met a guy who lost his father,

at the scene of massacre,

And I followed him and ended up here.

People have a lot of stories behind them here.

With the rage, we started to rub nobles' goods,

and then goods from government,

and we divided goods to people.

You have heard this so far?

Let me assume you're correct so far.

But why are you impersonating the Prince?

I've never impersonated him.

Then, what did I hear?

What you heard was the desire and hope of people.

That lie doesn't work for me!

How can your impersonation be the desire and hope of people.

When we scattered and divied the stolen goods,

People started to call us the Prince Mookang.

When they took the stolen goods from us,

they quietly praised the Prince Mookang,

and just like that, we became the influence of the Prince.

People never forget that day,

even if the Prince was announced as the killer, people didn't believe it

Also when he was dead,

they didn't want to believe that either,

even if he was dead, they wanted to believe he was alive.

People are tired of present King's rage, people chose the Prince.

When he was never seen before,

he was chosen as their hope.

The reason why I became the Prince was

just because I'm the only one who can write

and know the character in this mountain.

People here know that I'm not the Prince.

I heard that bandits are infested all over the region.

Is that your act, too?

No, as we stole goods under the support of people,

each suburban's bandits shared their stolen goods,

and sold the name of the Prince Mookang.

We were worried about that as well.

But what's the reason of taking me and doctor out now?

I became the hope of people without my will.

But I cannot stand it.

So I was afraid.

And I wanted to serve you and the doctor.

Please lead us to right direction.

No, it's the left thing for you who

served Prince Aja and King Wieduk.

For people you can replace those royals.

Please lead us.

2 days later, I will wait for you near the slave cottage.

Did people really praise the Prince?

It didn't seem like a lie but I don't believe it either.

Anyway, they will come back 2 day later at night.

What should I do?

What's the story with the poster? It's not us.

Who would do that?

I think it's the act of people's mind.

It is truly thankful and thankful.

But this will rage the King badly.

We were worried about it,

so lady Jin went to see the Imperial guard.

Did she?

Take in custody?

When? When!

When general came last night and reported it to the King,

King ordered to remove and execute him.

What did general report?

Many posters were found where they stay, Bukjung.

I think it's their act.

How about bandits of else where?

Well, he said nothing about it.

You were struck again.

What do you mean?

A few days ago, I caught a bandit impersonating 4th son.

Impersonating 4th son?

Yes, and I found out there are a lot of them.

I will get and get rid of them!

Yes, you must. But think about it first.

When bandits impersonate 4th son, people protect them.

What?

Why would they do that? 4th son maneuvered many things

and shook the mind of people.

As the lord demoted Dr. Mok and Eunsol to slaves,

for the sympathy of fool people

support 4th son without a reason?

And they don't believe after he's dead.

And if you execute them now,

people would think the lord is a despot.

Despot! Despot! What an improper language!

It's not what I think,

people think that way without a clue.

So you have to be the one

to propose the disorbedience of public.

No point of kill them to have public rage.

The way I see why general wants to execute them is that

He's afraid of them.

Afraid?

I don't know the exact reason.

But don't you think he hates them?

That's right!

I told you this before that

you have to find people to restrain general?

I think they can be the alternatives for you.

4th son is already dead and they begged for their lives.

Think carefully. Through this, general is

trying to make the world of his.

Whether it's true or not, we're in danger because of them.

And we have a long way to return.

I think so.

So tonight,

If you go, I'm going!

Thread goes where needle go. You go, Dooil goes.

Come out on time, I'll take care the rest.

Did he say he'd come out?

I'm not sure.

What's our move? We don't have enough people to strike.

- If we strike, they'll be killed. - Then?

Let's bet on what we believe in.

- Prepare the poster. - Yes, sir.

Let's believe in the power of people.

How did this happen?

Lord chose them as the origination of the poster.

We'll take them to the palace. Let's go!

I'll go to the palace!

I don't think your love will save Jang this time.

Naesol, prepare my leaving!

Alright! If you want to witness the last of Jang.

4th son maneuvered things and shook the mind of people.

As the lord demoted Dr. Mok and Eunsol to slaves,

for the sympathy, people support 4th son without a reason.

And they don't believe after he's dead.

And if you execute them now,

People would think the lord is a despot.

Lord!

Why?

What will you do with Jang and Mok?

What do you mean? I'll execute them.

But, that's

Lord! Premier is here.

We have a problem, lord!

What is it?

According to my men, from the southern areas

posters are attached.

Posters? What posters?

I'm condescended to say

but the lord is taking Jang and Mok to castle Sabi and execute,

so protect them at least on their way.

What!

Posters are attached more to castle Sabi.

Who would do that!

Arrest them now! I mean now!

I should've killed them. I should have!

I could be in trouble if I did what you said.

What do you mean?

Lord is very furious now.

- Something happened? - Posters are attached.

- Posters? - Jang and Mok are soon executed,

so protect their way to castle Sabi.

- Pardon? - So this time,

- Just what Giroo is doing. - Sir guard!

Let me see the lord.

It's not the right time.

No, this situation proves me that

I was right.

Sir guard!

General! We've a problem!

What is it?

This poster is attached everywhere.

Damn it!

How did it go?

All posters were attached. Nobody got caught.

More people are following them.

How's other plan going?

Everyone is scattered and proceeding soon.

- I need to discuss something. - What is it?

- I got anonymous letter. - Anonymous letter?

This is,

What does it say?

If you don't write an appeal to disagree the execution of

Jang and Mok, we'll be killed.

What?

Frankly I received it too.

- Is it true? - Yes.

But it's not the right time.

The moment we appeal, we'll be killed.

What should we do about it?

Did you find out?

It's notjust officials of Taehaksa,

low officials in the palace received letters, too.

- Did they? - I think it's where

doctor and Jang lived,

it was delivered more to Taehaksa people.

It'll be good if many appeals are sent.

Yes, but would it be possible?

Appealed people will be killed first.

Eunjin!

- Did you hear about letter? - Yes.

Nobody can do anything about it.

Yes.

Don't we have to go?

- Where? - To the market.

I can't go.

If we can't appeal for doctor's execution,

shouldn't we have to go?

Everyone thinks the same.

We served and worked for him,

we couldn't do anything when he was taken as a slave.

I did bad things to Jang and the doctor.

Right, this isn't right as a human.

If I can't die for them,

I would do so.

This can be the last, we should say good bye.

Yes, let's go.

Would we be killed again?

- But let's just be cautious. - Yes!

Let's go! Go! Come here!

Lord! You don't look good.

We have a problem, lord!

What is it!

Anonymous letters are sent to low officials.

Letters?

To appeal against the execution of Jang and Mok.

What?

Who! Who would do this!

I will just!

Lord! Captain of military police is here.

What is it?

I'm not sure it's because of the poster. But on the way to here,

the number of people who are following the custody are growing.

What!

It's growing?

What should I do?

There's no other way!

Take soldiers and protect general now.

Yes.

Even if I'll be killed by his knife here,

I have to push him!

Lord! I, Jin Gakyung!

Should've inform you earlier, please forgive me.

What are you saying?

Even if I may distrac you,

I should've have told you!

You could've prevented it in the early stage!

I said what do you mean!

It's the rumor among people.

The rumor?

Among people just like the poster,

the person who killed Prince Aja and King Wieduk,

is you and it's spreading as if it's the truth!

Even you killed your father, King Sunhwang!

What! Who talks shit about that!

Lord! I already gave you my life to you!

I don't know why I couldn't say it to you.

I'm just regretting it.

Lord!

When the rumor got more power on this is

after you sent Mok, Jang and Princess away.

Otherwise you couldn't do anything

about King Sunhwang's officials and your sister.

And then bandits of 4th son started to appear

and people supported those bandits.

For real, I once caught a fake 4th son who intruded in my house.

But they had no intention or power behind them.

But when they gave away few stolen goods to people,

they don't get caught and continue doing it.

This is what really happening now.

I'm condescended to say this

but people simply don't trust you, lord.

They don't trust the 4th son is dead.

Please turn their grievance to confidence.

If you execute Jang and Mok, grievance will rise extensively.

And they will be the heros.

So, lord! For now

please reconsider what is the best for you!

Truly, truly, I'm asking you from my loyalty towards you!

Please consider it!

Stop it.

- Find out what it is. - Yes.

You idiot! Where are you going?

The doctor and Eunsol are taking to the palace.

Even if so, did you forget it already?

You don't know what would happen at the market?

Would it happen again?

Did people know it'd happen?

People are deciding whether to go and see

- Jang and doctor or not. - What?

You can't go, son!

You can't go, you can't. Kill me and go.

Did you already forget that your father was killed there?

I won't die like my father.

Even if I'll be killed, I'll protect them!

Listen to your mom. Military will come soon!

- I still got to go. - What if you'll be killed,

what about your mother?

Mom! I'll be fine. I have this.

And I'm quick. If arrow comes, I can avoid it.

No! You can't go!

Did you see it?

- The market, you mean? - Yes.

- I saw it on the way. - What are you talking about?

People are gathering at the market rapidly.

I don't think it's ordinary movement.

That means people are complying with the poster.

It's not the posters, they can't forget it.

Forget what?

Although we announced that massacre was the act of 4th son.

People don't think so.

Lord! At the market of castle Sabi,

people are gathering rapidly.

Do people really follow what poster says?

Yes.

Get out now!

Lord! What I should...

I told you to get out!

They're gathering. They're gathering.

Lord! We shouldn't do massacre like the last time.

It seems Jin Gakyung is right.

- Jang! - Jang!

They look very scared.

But still they came to place of the massacre.

He was right!

He was right that people praised the Prince Mookang.

I'm enough with this.

I can die after seeing this.

No, I don't think we'll die.

I think people will save the Prince Mookang!
