Jeong Dojeon

I will arrest Lee Inim.

Pansamsasa.

If the vice-chancellor had An Sagi killed

to cover up collusion with Northern Yuan,

it was a clear act of treason.

Please allow his arrest.

You should gather your soldiers.

What for?

We have to take over the palace.

You should have His Majesty write an order

to arrest Lee Cheom and the gentry.

We can't do that.

Lee Cheom's appeal is a declaration of war.

War is going to break out anyway.

We should attack before they expect it.

We're talking about the vice-chancellor.

If we make a hasty judgment and
things go wrong,

everything will go out of control.

The vice-chancellor is in the meeting room

with his factions right now.

This is our chance when he has

his guard down.

Will Choi Yeong let this go?

We have to get rid of him, too.

He has been suspicious since An Sagi died.

Sir!

Choi Yeong is having a secret conversation

with Her Highness.

A secret conversation?

He wouldn't...

Go!

What are you doing?

Are you in your right mind?

This is the meeting room for high officials!

Let's go to Heungguksa.

Gather the soldiers by midnight.

Yes, sir.

There's no need.

The vice-chancellor was arrested?

Lee Cheom submitted an appeal to

impeach the vice-chancellor.
Episode 7

impeach the vice-chancellor.

The pansamsasa raided
the meeting room and

arrested the vice-chancellor who was fleeing.

Where is the vice-chancellor?

He was confined to his house by

Her Highness's order.

It's like a flash of lightning.

It is like Choi Yeong indeed.

The criminal should be locked up in prison,
not confined to his house.

He's still the vice-chancellor.

Her Highness is treating him with respect.

He doesn't deserve any respect.

I trusted your loyalty.

That is why I wanted to seek

friendly relations with Northern Yuan and

was willing to raid Sungkyunkwan

to capture Jeong Dojeon.

But?

I don't trust you anymore.

That is too bad.

Cooperate with the investigation.

I will show you
the most consideration that I can.

You make it sound like you won.

You can't beat me.

We'll see.

- Yeowol.
- Yes.

Okay.

- Sawol.
- Yes.

Okay.

- Myohyang.
- Yes.

Okay.

Gannani.

Gannani? Where is Gannani?

I think she's sick.

She wouldn't come out of the bathroom.

That little...

Tell her to get out before

I shove her in the toilet.

Yes.

Do they think monthly checks are a joke?

What are you doing here?

I'm here for a monthly check.

We could come and do the check.

You shouldn't be among the lowborn.

It's cold. Go on inside.

Come on.

Congratulations.

Since the vice-chancellor was arrested,

you should be returning to the capital soon.

Please don't forget me when you enter

the court again.

You don't seem to be so happy.

Lee Inim is not that easy to deal with.

He will be looking for a chance
to counterattack.

They can't put their guards down.

They're all wise officials.

I'm sure they'll do a good job.

Guksil.

Ginam.

Is this it?

Yes.

Are you kidding?

No, sir.

We didn't yield much crop because
there was a drought.

Master Lee took everything two days ago.

You little...

Are you alright?

How dare he?

Don't. You'll just cause more trouble.

What are you doing?

It looks like you're a landowner's servant.

Why are you using violence?

I heard a precious person was
coming from Gaegyeong.

Was that you?

Just answer me.

Why are you taking their crops?

I'm not taking anything.

I'm just here to collect land taxes.

What? Land taxes?

So, just mind your own business.

You are interfering with
government business.

Government business.
What are you talking about?

We have to collect land taxes to pay

taxes to the government.

Don't you know the landowners collect taxes

to pay for the tenant farmers' taxes?

Sojaedong is a village in Geopyeong Bugok.

So?

Bugok land has always been managed
directly by the government.

How can your master collect taxes?

Tenant farmers who farm
on government land

have to pay a quarter of their yield.

That is the law of Goryeo.

This is my master's land.

Quiet!

Leave everything and go before
you receive a good beating.

I'll go for now, but we'll meet again.

Let's go.

Those worthless people.

Are they exploiting the people with

government property?

Sir, thank you very much.

Are you alright?

I'm alright.

Sir.

He's telling you to be a shaman
because you do this.

These are just stones.

Don't be foolish.

These are just stones. Don't be foolish.

I'm sorry, but this is all I know how to do.

He hasn't changed his mind yet?

He hasn't said anything since you left,

so probably not.

How frustrating.

- Foster child.
- Yes?

It's your life, so you have to decide well.

You don't get another chance like this.

To be honest, I don't like it either.

Why not?

I don't want to be a shaman.

You're so naive.

What?

You were born with that destiny.

If you become my spiritual daughter...

I'll see you again.

Baby.

What are you doing here?

Huh? Nothing.

What is that?

I borrowed some tools from Yeongchun.

I want to make something.

What?

Poeun, don't let your guard down.

Lee Inim won't fall that easily.

Use this if you like it.

It's a desk.

We burnt your books.

We don't have any money,
so we can't buy you any new books.

I hope this can make up for it.

Okay.

Tell your sister not to feel so sorry.

Actually, I burned your books.

I'm sorry about that.

What am I to do if I want to pray?

I don't have anything to offer at the temple.

I can't perform ancestral rites because
I can't read like you.

Can't I even pray?

You're going to have to do some work

since you burned my books.

What work?

If I burn this, I can make an ink stick?

Yes.

Why are you making me make books?

You're not very smart.

It's because you burnt my books.

My brother told me everything, so stop lying.

How was it to make a book?

It was fun. It was neat, too.

Is that all?

Weren't you curious what was written
in the book?

What's the use? I can't read.

All I know is that white is paper and
black is writing.

Do you want to learn how to read?

I don't know how long I'll be here,

but I could teach you to read a little.

Do you mean that?

Learn.

If you learn, you will realize that
you're the one who can make your wish

come true, not stone towers.

Sir...

Why is there smoke?

What are they doing?

I ordered you to find the person
who made this.

Why haven't I heard anything yet?

Not anyone can buy such
a precious decorative ornament.

You can't even find the merchant
who made an ornament?

You still call yourselves
government officials?

Don't yell at innocent officials.

Leave us.

Have a seat.

I'll just say what I came to say.

Did you find any proof of
the vice-chancellor's guilt?

I will soon.

You already said that many times.

You can't keep stalling like this.

Fine. We'll give you a few more days,

but there is a limit to our patience, too.

Give an order to imprison
the vice-chancellor.

He is already confined to his house.

He is ordering his factions to

interfere with the investigation.

The officials are also afraid that

the vice-chancellor will retaliate.

This atmosphere has to be changed.

We can't do that.

Your Highness.

The prominent families are very
unhappy as it is.

We can't do anything more without proof.

I will question him myself.

Come with me!

We'd like a word with you.

Go ahead.

When is the interrogation going to be held?

There aren't any plans yet, so leave.

I demanded his impeachment
quite a while ago.

You don't even have plans?

We can't have an interrogation

without any clear evidence.

A thorough investigation is being made.

You'll never find any proof like that.

Lee Inim has too much power.

Who is going to investigate properly?

If you stall any more,

you will only give him time to
cover up his crime.

If you can't hold an interrogation yet,
you should at least lock him up in prison.

Just leave for now.

We want an answer before we go.

Do you have any intention of
investigating the vice-chancellor?

I told you to leave.

We cannot leave.

Listen!

Pansamsasa, pansamsasa.

Japanese pirates were headed north.

They landed in Yanggwangdo.

There were Japanese pirates along

the coast of Korea and China at the time.

They were pirates, but they were large

in size and came in hundreds of vessels.

They raided coastal villages and
took quality cows.

They entered deep inland along the river
and plundered, too.

There were more outbreaks during
king Wu's reign.

They appeared 378 times during

the 14 years of his reign.

It looks like it's time.

Take this to Im Gyeonmi.

Yes, sir.

Thousands of Japanese pirates

attacked Yanggwangdo.

The soldiers stationed in the rural areas
won't be enough to fight them.

We must send reinforcements.

We should do that.

Gather an opinion at the Supreme Council.

There is something
that has to be settled before that.

An appeal for impeachment was submitted.

Another appeal?

It isn't to impeach the vice-chancellor.

It is to impeach Lee Cheom.

It is?

Who wrote this appeal?

Wu Inyeol and Han Ri.

They are generals of the unit that
protects His Majesty.

Why are soldiers getting involved?

Is there any law that they can't be?

You were once a soldier, too.

They must have been really frustrated

to write an appeal!

Your Majesty, since an appeal was

submitted, Lee Cheom must be arrested.

It's only fair since the vice-chancellor
was confined to his house.

Grandmother.

I understand what you're saying.

Let's settle this matter after

we deal with the Japanese pirates.

It's not something you should postpone.

We can't beat enemies when

there is internal conflict.

It won't take long.

You just have to interrogate Lee Cheom and

see if the vice-chancellor is guilty or not.

Lee Cheom isn't an ordinary official.

He is a gangwan.

Don't you know it is customary not to

punish a gangwan
to protect freedom of speech?

So, it is alright for a gangwan to make

a false accusation?

I'm saying we should be prudent.

Since the situation in Yanggwangdo
is more urgent...

No.

We can't do that.

We will leave for now.

What?

Oh...

The counterattack has begun.

It's because of Choi Yeong's mistake.

This is so low.

They're using an attack by Japanese pirates.

What about reinforcements to Yanggwangdo?

The prominent families aren't going to
offer their private soldiers.

They'll have to choose soldiers
from the palace.

How many will there be?

There aren't any who will go.

They will get on Lee Inim's bad side.

Who would dare?

No.

There is one person.

I'd like you to go.

I'd like to rush to Yanggwangdo myself,

but I can't right now.

I'm asking you to go.

How is the investigation coming along?

It's not easy to find proof.

You look exhausted.

I'm being attacked by prominent families

and the gentry.

I am pretty exhausted.

Hang in there, general.

I ended up on
the Supreme Council somehow,

but politics don't suit me.

I will go.

I'm sorry and I'm grateful.

You will lack soldiers.

I will put word into the local magistrates,

so you can draft citizens on the way.

It's alright.

I'll go with the soldiers I have.

You won't draft any soldiers?

That won't change anything.

You should have told him that

you would think about it.

I told you it's a bad habit to eavesdrop.

You need a scolding!

There isn't anyone who is willing to go.

You should have negotiated.

What? Negotiate?

If you turned him down today,

he would have offered you a position on
the Supreme Council tomorrow.

If you refused again, the prominent families

would have come with a higher position

to stop you from going.

Listen.

Is your life only worth a thank you?

No wonder people take you so lightly.

Listen!

I'm sorry I raised my voice.

If you want to go, draft soldiers

Like he suggested.

I will be relieved then.

Honey.

Honey.

You know what that's like?

When I enter a village, I only see sons.

Their lips are all black from
eating pine bark.

Even if I go into the village,

there aren't any adults.

They are all in their rooms.

They don't have much to eat,

so they just lie and stare at the ceiling.

When the fathers are dragged out,

every grain of rice is picked up and

we get ready to leave the village.

I can hear the women wail for

quite a distance.

Do you know what I think when it gets quiet?

I wonder who will die first.

The father who is dragged to battle or

the son who remains?

Honey.

Will the father die first?

Will the son first?

Who will die first?

You don't win a battle just by

drafting soldiers.

You didn't review what you learned very well.

It's not that. This looks so strange.

Oh!

One more excuse and
I'll give you a whipping.

Try writing it again.

Yes.

Is this going to help me read?

I'm not very confident.

Mencius said there isn't
anything people can't do.

They just don't do it.

They just don't do it, but they can do it?

That's how life is.

If you give up, you can't achieve anything.

If you put your mind to it,

you can do anything.

Since you put it like that, it sounds right.

Mencius must have learned quite a bit

even if he's not as smart as you.

What?

Try writing it again.

Do you have to learn how to read?

It's fun to study.

Do you want to learn from me?

No. Forget it.

Since you're learning, learn how to

write your name.

That won't be all.

If I learn diligently for a year, I'll be
able to read difficult books, too.

He's not going to be here that long.

Who? The scholar?

He'll be returning to the capital soon,

so serve him well while he's here.

Yes.

Ma'am. Ma'am!

Since you wouldn't accept any rice,

I brought you some work.

Poeun...

You don't have to thank me yet.

If the sewing isn't satisfactory,

you won't get paid the full amount.

That won't happen.

She has the best sewing skills

in the capital.

Are you that good?

It's an honor.

He's just saying that.

Is Lee Cheom alright?

I heard the prominent families wouldn't

send reinforcements
until he was imprisoned.

General Lee Seonggye is
going to Yanggwangdo.

Everything should be alright.

Don't worry about it.

That hillbilly is going to ruin everything.

We can't stop him by force.

What will we do?

It's time to ask him to pay his debt.

Him?

The person who has the greatest debt
to me in Goryeo.

Who do you think that is?

The vice-chancellor eliminated Hong Ryun

and his followers for assassinating

the former king.

He put you on the throne despite

strong opposition by the royal family.

Why are you just watching a loyal servant

be persecuted like this?

It's upsetting, but the pansamsasa is...

Do not trust Choi Yeong.

Did you forget how he humiliated you

when you took the throne?

Go ahead and give me an order.

Now!

Please spare me.

What should I do?

This.

You wretches!

Wait until I get my hands on you.

I'll hang up your intestines!

What are you looking at?

Those wretches!

You went to get soldiers.

Why did you return by yourself?

Forget about the whole thing.

What is it?

How can they always make us out
to be such fools?

Let's just go back to Dongbukmyeon.

I asked you what the problem is.

Your Highness, how can you give

such an order?

You want me to postpone dispatching
the soldiers and lock up Lee Cheom first?

You are giving in to unjust demands by
the prominent families.

She just found out about it this morning.

His Majesty decided it last night.

Why...

I have to see His Majesty.

He isn't in the palace.

Your Majesty.

Yes.

I will never forget your generosity.

I'm glad that you are happy.

Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

The vice-chancellor is being investigated.

Why did you come here?

Don't be so rude!

Ji Yun.

Yes.

The vice-chancellor contributed to

putting me on the throne.

Can't I comfort a loyal servant

who is suffering?

Suffering? That is nonsense.

What happened to Lee Cheom?

I gave an order to arrest him.

Your Majesty...

Pansamsasa.

His Majesty has to return to the palace soon.

You should talk with me.

I warned you.

I told you that you can't beat me.

I should have imprisoned you from the start.

I regret not doing so.

That's in the past now.

Follow His Majesty's order and
arrest Lee Cheom.

I can't do that.

You're going to defy a royal order?

When Jeong Dojeon refused to go as an
envoy to greet the Northern Yuan envoys,

you said a loyal servant never
disobeys a royal order.

Are you inclining toward the gentry now?

I'm not on anyone's side.

That is the reason you lost to me.

Politics are about power.

I'm not interested in power and
I don't need it.

I'm just walking my path.

Have you seen that path recently?

The gentry attacked you, the influential

families attacked you and

His Majesty betrayed you.

You didn't walk your path. You got lost.

Things won't be much more different.

There aren't any flowery paths to

walk alone when it comes to battle.

Abide by the royal order.

Then you will not be harmed.

Lee Cheom went into hiding?

What are you talking about?

His Majesty couldn't resist the pressure.

He gave an order to arrest Lee Cheom.

Where is he?

We won't know
until Park Sangchung returns.

I hope he's alright.

Ji Yun's soldiers are looking for him.

Ji Yun?

Not Choi Yeong?

After carrying out the royal order,

Choi Yeong resigned.

Look carefully.

It's an edict by the government allowing

Land taxes in Sojaedong.

Can I collect taxes now?

What are you doing?

Get all the crops in the shed.

Yes!

I'm sure it's a false edict.

A false edict?

There are five other people who are
claiming to be the landowners of Sojaedong.

I'm sure they all falsified the edicts.

They wouldn't do that.

Influential families used false edicts to

take land and crops
from the common people.

You are the magistrate of this area.

Shouldn't you investigate?

I should since you are reporting it.

I'm asking you.

Father!

Father!

Sir.

You're an official of Hoejinhyeon.

What are you doing?

Don't you know why?

What?

The supervisor should watch

every move the exiled person makes.

He didn't know the banished person left the

village and went to the government office.

He should be punished for that.

What?

He is being taken to the government building

for breaking the law, so get out of the way.

Come on. The sun is going to set.

Yes, sir!

Father! Father!

You hypocrite! Stop it right now!

Sir!

The magistrate has a message for you.

He said he would break your legs

if this happened again.

Something must have happened
in Gaegyeong.

What is it?

I asked you a question!

The weather is so nice.

Congratulations on your return.

Congratulations.
