Jeong Dojeon

Mencius?

Is this yours?

Yes.

A thief who reads?

Are you a Confucian scholar?

I'm just a good-for-nothing who

Learns and teaches lies.

Let's go.

Poeun.

I'm here as the supporting
commander, general.

Please get up.

I'm lacking, but you have my full support.

Just having you here is enough for me.
I'm glad you came.

Enemy camp at Inwolyeok
(today's Namwon,Jeottabuk-do)

The leader of the reinforcements is

the famous Lee Seonggye...

Don't let your guard down, understood?

Lee Seonggye... This will be your grave.

Akibatsu's strategy is niaoyunzhizhen.

Niaoyunzhizhen?

What does that mean?

It means it's ever-changing like

birds dispersing from a flock or

Like clouds gathering.

It's written in the Chinese book
of strategy, Liutao.

In China, it refers to camping in a place

with a mountain in behind and with streams

or mountains to the left and right.

If we attack the main camp here,

Akibatsu will come around Hwangsan

and attack us from behind.

We could be annihilated.

Can't we occupy Hwangsan first?

They're using it as a bridgehead.

The mountain is rough
and the path is narrow.

It is impregnable.

The side with the heavier butt will win.

Are you saying we should wait
until they attack us first?

They say there isn't much to eat at
a huge party.

That's the situation Namwon is in.

Commander, send a message to

Lee Seonggye and tell him to attack.

The enemy is camped out in
an advantageous position.

No army camps out in
a disadvantageous position.

They should be prepared for that much.

That is why they say a suspicious person
shouldn't be sent.

They also say once a person is sent,

you shouldn't be doubt him.

He keeps causing doubt.

We sent a large army.

Why does he keep giving the enemy
room to breathe?

It is not a matter
for the Supreme Council to decide.

I'm going to leave it up to Lee Seonggye.

Vice-chancellor.

The meeting is over.

Lee Seonggye must be up to something.

Watch his wife well.

His wife in Gaegyeong?

She considers herself to be his strategist.

If Lee Seonggye has other intentions,

there will be some evidence of it.

Episode 1 1

Even if I give worship every day,

I'm still nervous.

I must be lacking in prayers.

Your desperate heart reached Buddha
a long time ago.

Your husband will suppress the enemy

and return safely, so don't worry.

Isn't this white lotus tea?

It helps calm an anxious heart.

Try it.

Thank you.

Stay right here, okay?

Yes.

Hey, you!

What are you doing?

Don't come near me.

Are you alright?

I'm alright.

I'm alright.

Yangji!

He's trying to escape! Get him!

He's with them.

Arrest him right away!

Yes, sir!

Let's attack when day breaks.

The enemy is frustrated, too.

Let's just wait.

Just wait? For how long?

Jerk.

Don't be so rude to the inspector.

Our enemies are right in front of us
and we're just sitting here.

We came here to fight.

Being patient and waiting is also fighting.

General.

A few of the refugees harmed the guards

and escaped.

We captured one of them.

You should kill him according to military law.

Is it something to report to generals
who are discussing strategy?

He said he's not a soldier, so he

shouldn't be disciplined by military law.

He said he wanted to tell
the inspector a strategy.

What a rude little...

What strategy?

He said he checked out the enemy camp
while he was doing labor.

He said it looked like the enemy's
strategy was niaoyunzhizhen,

so we would
be in trouble if we attacked hastily.

He knows about niaoyunzhizhen?

Who is this man?

Who do you think?

He's probably a spy sent by Akibatsu.

He's just trying to spare his life.

I will kill him right now.

We can't conclude that he's a spy.

You can't kill a common person like that.

You heard our soldiers were harmed.

This is a time of battle.

He is right.

There was a Confucian scholar among

the refugees. It must be him.

A Confucian scholar?

He was reading Mencius.

He got caught stealing military rations

and now, he tried to escape.

What is this world coming to?

Mencius?

You must be a spy sent by Akibatsu.

I'm just a good-for-nothing who stole

rations because I didn't want to starve.

Is that so?

I had nothing to do with the escape,

so release me.

Who are you?

I told you I'm a good-for-nothing.

Tell me the truth!

Sambong.

Poeun.

It was really you.

You're alive.

Do you know him?

I can't believe it.

How have you been?

Sambong.

I gave you Mencius to read when

you were exiled.

How frustrating.

If you told them you were gentry,

you wouldn't have been accused of
stealing military rations.

It wasn't a false accusation.

I stole goods that belonged to a thief,

so it can't be of any fault.

A thief?

It was government military rations.

That's why I said it's a thief.

Don't joke around like that.

I'm sorry.

You must have suffered a lot to say

something you don't mean.

It's all over now.

Your released has been approved
as long as you live outside the capital.

You can live anywhere
except for Gaegyeong.

My exile is over?

Stay here and come with me

when the battle is over.

Goryeo's fate depends on this battle.

We have to watch what happens together.

You should meet general Lee Seonggye.

Order Lee Seonggye to attack.

That's for him to decide.

Even if I'm the commander,
I can't give such an order.

Goryeo will go broke at this rate.

We haven't been able to pay

the officials for several months.

Do you know how much money is
being spent on the soldiers in Namwon?

A battle can't be rushed no matter
how difficult the situation is.

There's something worse than the enemy!

It's the government running out of money.

If Lee Seonggye isn't avoiding battle
and he doesn't have other intentions,

it's time for him to attack.

Give the order right away.

I won't do that.

Then we won't be sending any more

military supplies to Namwon.

Vice-chancellor!

Oh...

Ooh!

Sambong Jeong Dojeon?

He was exiled 6 years ago.

His release outside the capital was
approved recently. He's a close friend.

He is skilled with strategy, too.

I'd like to introduce him to you.

Bring him.

Yes, sir.

Sambong!

Sambong...

Open the gate.

Open the gate.

Ooh!

They're not sending military supplies?

That's a bunch of nonsense.

It means we should stop stalling and
attack the enemy.

I will go to Gaegyeong and

explain the situation.

What situation?

That the generals want to fight,

but the inspector doesn't want to?

What did you just say?

You're just a lowly Jurchen.

How dare you raise your voice like that?

You little...

Get out right now!

I said get out.

Those little rats!

Please calm down.

They're desperate, too.

Look.

Order the archers to shoot.

They're too far away.

Let's go to battle.

Lee Seonggye came to his grave.

General Byeon Anyeol will be

in charge of the main army.

General.

Are you saying you'll take the rear?

I'll go to Hwangsan.

General.

It is the enemy's hideout.

They'll kill you.

General Byeon.

Yes.

If even a single enemy appears from behind,

it means I'm dead,

so retreat to the fortress.

Attack!

Those rats!

Main forces, attack.

Soldiers, follow me!

Attack!

Charge!

Don't die.

Let's go.

Let's go!

Even the top general of Goryeo

is no big deal.

I will end it tomorrow.

General!

Why aren't the soldiers of Hwangsan
attacking the enemy from the rear?

Lee Seonggye is at Hwangsan.

Why haven't we heard from Hwangsan?

I sent a messenger. We will receive word.

General Byeon!

Akibatsu was leading the main forces,
but he disappeared.

He must have gone to Hwangsan.

We have to send reinforcements.

Who will volunteer to go to Hwangsan?

Just look at you.

There's no end no matter how many we kill.

Do not retreat!

All forces, go forward!

Seonggye.

Don't retreat!

You rats, come on!

I'll kill you all!

Seonggye.

Seonggye!

Don't be afraid.

Stay alert and follow me.

Understood?

Yes, general!

Attack!

Charge!

Jiran.

Ooh, it looks like we'll die today.

Nonsense. Don't say that.

Protect the inspector!

Don't let a single enemy live!

Rat.

Shoot arrows!

Seonggye!

I'm alright. Don't make a fuss.

That...

That rat! I'll kill him!

Jiran!

How many arrows left?

This is it.

Get ready.

Yes.

Oh...

Attack!

You rat!

Akibatsu.

Go to hell, rat.

- Make them kneel!
- Yes, sir!

Watch them well.

Chollam. You'll be alright.

General.

I wondered if I was in hello.

I thought I died.

Seeing you, I must be alive.

It's a huge victory.

We got 1,600 horses and

Less than 70 enemies got away alive.

General.

Good job.

General, congratulations on your victory.

Congratulations, general.

Get up.

Ma'am.

Hurray for general Lee Seonggye!

- Hurray!
- Hurray!

1383. The Japanese pirates were thriving,

but the Hwangsan Battle suppressed them.

With the Jinpo Battle ted by Choi Museon

and the Hongsan Battle ted by Choi Yeong,

it was a monumental victory in history.

With it, Lee Seonggye
became a national hero.

Lee Seonggye, the inspector of Yanggwang,

Jeolla and Gyeongsang-do

will be rewarded with 50 nyangs of gold,

servants and land for his merit.

The Supreme Council
will carry out this order.

Despite much merit in battle,

Lee Seonggye had to guard a border area.

He finally had a place in court.

The people bowed to Lee Seonggye

when he returned.

He was treated like a king.

The gentry is taking action, too.

Jeong Mongju was close with Lee Seonggye,

but Lee Saek and Gwon Geun wrote a poem

praising the victory at Hwangsan.

We have to do something before

he gains more power.

This isn't the right time.

Public sentiments are with Lee Seonggye.

What should we do?

Public sentiments don't like blood.

Seek coexistence for now.

What if that is difficult?

Public sentiments are as fickle as

the weather in summer.

We'll have to wait for summer.

I feel like I gained an army of a million

with you on the Supreme Council.

You flatter me.

He will lack skills since it's his first time
in politics.

Please guide him well.

I lack just as many skills.

If you don't mind a quack, I will do that.

We should get going now.

See you on the council.

Goodbye.

Let's go.

Congratulations.

You achieved a victory and

got a spot on the Supreme Council.

You don't seem so happy though.

Why did you cut off supplies to Namwon?

The country was about to starve.
I couldn't just feed you.

If you waited a little longer,

the enemy would have come out.

You won.

Too many soldiers died when
they didn't have to.

Honey.

I'm disappointed.

Will you be able to carry out politics?

Your head could be cut off if you

act like you did on a battleground.

That's how the court is.

That's a bit excessive.

Remember what I said.

When you face an enemy on the
battleground, you have to draw your sword.

But when you face an enemy on court, smile.

A politician's sword should be hidden

in a smile, not a sheath.

The politics you speak of are trickery.

Welcome to the capital.

Let's go.

There isn't any word from
the government building in Yeongju.

He must be dead.

You can't do this!

Why not? I'm going to look for my husband!

Get out of my way!

You don't even know where he is.

Whether he's dead or alive,

he must be in Goryeo.

I said move!

Ma'am!

Sir.

It's been a long time.

Were you going somewhere?

Was I going somewhere?

Where do you think I was going?

Honey.

How could you be so indifferent

when you were alive like this?

I'm sorry. I was in no situation to write.

I'm going to Ming to pay a tribute.

I heard from Sungin.

The relations between Goryeo and Ming
are still like thin ice.

Establish a firm foundation.

Yes, master.

Take good care of him while I'm gone.

Don't worry and have a safe trip.

Look for Sambong when you can.

Yes.

I was relieved to hear he was released.

Why did he disappear without a word?

It seemed like he was in pain

when I saw him at Hwangsan.

I'm sure he's secluded in a remote village.

He has a quick temper,

but he has a soft heart.

Wang Zhu said, chungsinbulsaigun

yeollyeobulgyeongibu.

A loyal servant must not serve two kings

and a woman of virtue must not

serve two husbands.

A loyal servant must not serve
a king of another country.

Even if the dynasty changes and

even if you have to starve to death

Like Bo Yi and Shu Qi,

you should be loyal to the old dynasty.

Memorize this.

Yes, master!

Do you want bonus points?

Yes.

Just as a loyal woman only has

one man in her heart,

there is only one king in my heart.

If you pass away, I will abandon my position

and live in a remote village

yearning you for going before me.

That will get you 10,000 points.

- Memorize that.
- Yes.

But remember.

What is everything I teach you?

Nonsense!

That's right.

It's nonsense by a good-for-nothing.

Just memorize it in your brain,
but don't remember it in your heart.

Why are you drinking so much?
It's not good for you.

I'm sorry.

I'm drinking precious wine when

I can't even make any money.

That's not what I meant.

You said a scholar has to be abstinent.
You didn't drink so much before.

I'm just worried.

I'm no scholar.

What is that?

It looks like clothes worn my monks.

I got them from Mireuksa.

I know you don't like temple goods,

but they pay well.

Are you mad?

You're only doing it to make money.

So what if it's from a temple or
from an influential family?

I'm sorry.

Everything will be alright.
Don't blame yourself.

There isn't anything you can't do

if you put your mind to it.

People just don't do it.

It's not that they can't do it.

You know Mencius?

I heard that at Mireuksa.

Do Buddhist monks say things like that?

The lady who gives alms said that to me

when she gave me sewing work.

Mencius said people don't do it.

It's not that they can't do it.

They don't do it.

It's not that they can't do it.

That's how things are.

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

If you set your mind to it,

you can achieve anything.

It sounds right.

Mencius must have learned a lot

even if he's not as smart as you.

Hyo meaning filial.

Children should serve their parents.

It's important to serve them well,

especially from the heart.

Someone who serves their parents
in their hearts is a truly filial child.

Do you understand?

Yes.

Miss.

Did you find out?

They don't know where he went
since he left Gaegyeong with his family.

Nobody in the gentry knows either.

You want to find Jeong Dojeon?

Yes, mother.

I told you that the two of you have

an ill-fated relationship.

What would you do if you find out?

What could I do?

I just want to know he's alright.

I'd feel better.

It's useless.

You didn't enter priesthood,

but you serve Buddha.

Forget about worldly memories and

focus on your meditation.

Here you go.

You sew very well.

This is a lot.

Thank you.

Call me again next time.

Hello.

Gidong, it's been a long time.

Oh, it's Mrs. Jeong.

Mrs. Jeong.

Hello.

Hi, Gidong.

What brings you here?

I came with my mother for worship.

He didn't come to learn.

He must have gone to the village school.

Someone who studied in Gaegyeong

is teaching there.

I think I should tell him to stop going.

Is he asking for a lot of money?

No. I think the master is a bit strange.

Strange?

He tells the children he's a good-for-nothing
who only babbles nonsense.

A good-for-noting?

He wouldn't have said that.

Miss.

If that's true, you should send him
to another village school.

You agree, right?

I don't want to.

I'm going to continue going to Sambongjae.

The master is a lot of fun.

The school is called Sambongjae?

You thief!

You're killing me.

You drank over 5 liters.

You want it on credit?

I ought to...

You're killing me.

What bad luck.

Sir.

It's me, Yangji.
