Let go of me! Episode 14

Let go of me!

Mother!

Mother!

Arrest her, too!

Yes, sir!

Yangji!

Sir!

Yangji!

Take them away!

Why are you doing this?

Let's go.

The Buddhist priest and daughter are being

taken to the Legal Administration Office.

We need to get a confession out of them.

They have to confess that what happened was ordered by Lee Seonggye.

That's right.

Lee Seonggye is a dead man now.

Don't let Lee Seonggye know that

they have been arrested.

Make sure everyone at the Legal Administration Office keeps quiet.

Yes, sir.

General Lee Seonggye came to save us!

Hurray for general Lee Seonggye!

Hurray for general Lee Seonggye!

Hurray for general Lee Seonggye!

Hurray for general Lee Seonggye!

Hurray!

- Hurray! - Hurray!

Honey.

What are you thinking about?

Nothing. Go to sleep.

The baby must be giving you a hard time

because it wants to come out quickly.

I'll scold it when it comes out.

Honey.

I'm worried about what happened at the worship service.

You're just sensitive because

your delivery date is near.

It's alright. Go to sleep.

Did you find out?

Why were they taken away?

You seem to be mistaken.

Nobody like that was brought here.

What?

If they live at Samgaksan, they would have been

taken to the Hanyangbu office.

Let's go there.

They were officials of the Legal Administration Office.

I saw them being taken into the capital

with my own eyes.

They must have been told to keep quiet.

It must be a special case.

Are they accusing them of spreading rumors deceiving the people?

They are pure people who believe Maitreya will come.

It's not a false religion.

Just a minute.

I'm going to a worship service at Samgaksan.

Would you like to go with me?

Do you have any ideas?

Sambong, I have to go somewhere.

Where are you going?

Leave this to me.

Go back to Samgaksan.

I'll contact you.

Poeun.

I have something to ask you.

Let's go to the detached building.

Was the worship service held at Mireuksa?

How did you know?

The Buddhist priest and the lady who gives alms were

taken to the Legal Administration Office.

What were they accused of?

They're keeping the arrest silent.

I don't know what the charge is.

I have a bad feeling about this.

Mother.

Where are you?

Answer me if you can hear me.

Mother! Mother!

Mother!

It's me, Yangji.

Wake up.

Are you the lady who gives alms?

Why are you doing this?

We didn't do anything wrong.

I'm going to ask you.

Did Lee Seonggye order you to

say that he was Maitreya?

Lee Seonggye?

Did you collude with Lee Seonggye and

spread propagating rumors?

Did you do that to make him the king?

The king?

Of course not.

We only held a worship service

for Maitreya to come to us.

That's all.

I guess you need to be taught a lesson

to tell the truth.

Look here.

Take her!

Yes, sir!

Come on!

No.

Come on!

You can't do this.

Mother!

Yangji!

Mother!

Yangji. Yangji!

How can you be so cruel?

Yangji! Yangji!

Yangji...

It must be a trap.

A trap?

After they said you were Maitreya,

the Buddhist priest and lady who gives alms

were arrested.

Do you think that was a coincidence?

It's probably not a coincidence that

a gag order was given, too.

Someone is targeting you.

Lee Inim is trying to retaliate.

Lee Inim, that little...

I'll go to the Legal Administration Office and prove my innocence.

You can't do that.

Whatever you say, they will torture them until

they get the confession they want.

You have to take refuge before

they give a false confession.

You should go to Dongbukmyeon where your soldiers are.

They won't be able to attack when you have so many soldiers there.

You want me to run?

It would look like he was admitting guilt.

Oh, boy.

You can't stay or run.

I have a good idea.

General Lee Jiran has a horse ready outside the palace.

If you sense anything strange, you have to go right away.

Did you have a good night?

Don't let it show.

Are you ill?

You don't look too well.

I'm alright.

I'm not sure how we should settle

the matter of Ming rejecting our envoy.

Choi Yeong will raise his voice again.

Do you have any ideas?

Let's discuss it at the meeting.

Let's go.

We can't make any more tributary payments to Ming!

That is the only way. Why are you being so stubborn?

Why aren't you thinking about joining forces

with Nagachu and fighting Ming?

Ming didn't declare it would cut off relations with us.

It's not a life or death situation yet.

You should agree.

I will not agree.

Oh, boy.

It looks like it will be difficult to

reach a majority agreement today.

How about discussing it again after

we think about it a little more?

Let's do that.

Let's end the meeting for today.

There is one thing I'd like to discuss.

What is it?

Jurchen leader, Hobatu,

raided Dongbukmyeon recently.

He abducted ten people.

Hobatu?

It means they will be attacking soon.

He raided Uiju with 1,000 soldiers in January.

We have to come up with a measure.

Do you have any ideas?

We should send the chanseongsa to

Dongbukmyeon to annihilate Hobatu.

That's a good idea.

We should remove any problems by the roots.

We can't do that.

Just a minute.

Sending the chanseongsa to kill Hobatu

is like using a knife to kill a cow when

all you need is a knife to kill a chicken.

Hobatu shouldn't be taken lightly.

What do you think?

If you decide to send me,

I can leave right away.

Right away?

Yes.

Let's do that.

He is volunteering to go.

There is no reason to say no.

Let's adjourn for a while.

Sir.

We'll continue in an hour.

Lee Seonggye and Jeong Mongju

know about Mireuksa.

They're trying to make an excuse, so Lee Seonggye can leave the capital.

I will tell Im Gyeonmi to get a confession quickly.

Yangji! Yangji!

Yangji. Yangji.

Mother.

Yangji.

Yangji...

You still won't confess?

Aren't you afraid of the heavens?

Fine.

Watch carefully.

See what happens to your daughter!

There aren't any strange movements at the Legal Administration Office yet.

I think they're enduring the torture.

What will happen to them if I leave the capital?

Nothing will change even if you stay.

You have to maintain a cool head.

What do you think about sending

Lee Seonggye to suppress Hobatu?

We can't let him go.

There is a famine in the capital and Japanese pirates are attacking often.

It would be illogical to raise an army.

We're not talking about raising an army.

Hobatu can be suppressed with the changseongsa's private soldiers.

He has an important position on

the council and on the court.

It isn't such an urgent matter.

I can't agree to him leaving the capital.

Dongbukmyeon has been ruled by

the chanseongsa's family for generations.

He wants to go.

There is no reason to stop him.

That's right.

Heungbang, why are you opposed to

everything the generals are saying?

Sir, make a decision quickly.

There is a need to suppress Hobatu.

Sir.

But it isn't a very urgent matter.

Let's decide at the next council meeting.

Let's decide now.

Matters like this shouldn't be put off.

We can decide after we look into

the situation in Dongbukmyeon.

Why are you against it?

I said I would go.

Stop being rude!

Yeongmunhabusa.

Let's adjourn one more time.

We should do that.

It can be decided in a few days.

Why are you rushing it?

Things aren't good with the yeongmunhabusa.

There's no need to cause more trouble.

Sir.

Help me.

I've fallen into a trap.

I will confess!

I will confess.

So please stop.

Who ordered you to deceive the people?

Tell me!

Did you talk with the chanseongsa?

Yes.

So, why did you return alone?

I think we should end the meeting today.

I asked you why you returned alone.

It was obvious that you would just disagree again.

I ordered him to go and check out

the situation in Dongbukmyeon.

Are you saying he is headed to Dongbukmyeon?

Yes.

How can you exceed your authority and make such a decision like that by yourself?

He is the yeongsamsasa.

The council couldn't reach an agreement.

He told him to check out the situation.

How is that exceeding his authority?

Jeong Mongju is right.

The yeongmunhabusa also said

we should look into the situation first.

There's no need to discuss it further.

He isn't here now.

Let's end the meeting for now.

We can discuss it further when he returns.

If he goes to Dongbukmyeon,

he won't return to the capital.

We have to arrest him before he leaves the capital.

We don't have any proof to arrest him.

What is Im Gyeonmi doing?

Sir!

Sir.

Buddhist priest Mudeok confessed and gave up Lee Seonggye.

Send the fastest soldier and

arrest Lee Seonggye right away.

Yes, sir.

Sambong.

Things were hectic.

I haven't been able to find out yet since I had to attend the council meeting.

I'll look into it now.

It shows when a person who isn't

good at lying tries to lie.

You know what's going on.

Tell me.

Lee Inim planned this to

eliminate Lee Seonggye.

What?

They're being charged for receiving

Lee Seonggye's order to spread rumors

that he is Maitreya.

What happened to Lee Seonggye?

He left the capital,

but we can't be safe yet.

What?

I wondered where you went in such a hurry.

Did you go to help him flee?

Yes.

I asked you to save Mudeok and Yangji.

You helped the only man who can prove their innocence flee?

How could you?

I couldn't let Lee Inim kill Lee Seonggye.

What about them?

Is it alright for them to die?

You know how cruel Lee Inim can be.

Why are you being so reckless?

There's no guarantee they will live

because Lee Seonggye appears.

Quiet!

One more word and I won't forgive you.

Calm down. We should talk about this.

Do you know why her name is Yangji?

Mencius said people were born with

a kind heart.

She has that heart.

She suffered much difficulty.

Her heart is full of tears.

But she is trying hard to preserve

that kind heart.

Sambong.

She's the only reason I still have hope

for this rotten world.

I'm going to save her.

Sir!

Sir, Lee Seonggye already left the capital.

What?

Don't be disappointed yet.

Lee Seonggye got away,

but we have the confession.

We can arrest his wife and children and

pressure him to return to the capital for an investigation.

He won't return passively.

He will come with thousands of soldiers.

If you push him further to the edge

of a cliff, he could start a rebellion.

You should end it here.

I'll be direct.

Don't try to frame Lee Seonggye again.

One day, you will regret what you did today.

Are you threatening me?

I'm saying you will regret saving

Lee Seonggye.

He won't be satisfied with being your aide.

Stop it.

He isn't just a close aide.

He is like a son to me.

Anyway, how should we settle this?

Make him the province commander of Dongbukmyeon.

Just send an order to Dongbukmyeon.

I don't do business that causes me losses.

I will agree to sending an envoy to Ming.

I will send an order to Dongbukmyeon.

It's a good thing this has been settled.

Goodbye then.

What are you going to do about the people at the Legal Administration Office?

They have to be released for this matter to be completely settled.

He is right.

Acquit them and release them.

That's going to be a problem.

Why?

The Buddhist priest just confessed.

She said it was ordered by Lee Seonggye.

We can't burn the record of confession.

Even if we do, how will we keep

all those officials quiet?

Are you saying Lee Seonggye isn't safe yet?

I'll make him safe.

Just leave the people at the Legal

Administration Office to me.

Lee Seonggye was falsely accused by

people at Mireuksa?

Why did people who were arrested

falsely accuse Lee Seonggye?

They confessed that Lee Seonggye

ordered it, so they could avoid an execution.

Lee Seonggye's wife went to that temple.

They spread false propagation and falsely accused someone.

They're shameless.

So...

I told the yeongmunhabusa to give them

a death that wasn't so easy.

May Buddha have mercy on us.

Make way for the yeongmunhabusa.

Who are you?

Stand down.

You're not allowed in the capital.

I'm using the pass you gave me before.

What do you want?

Release the people from Mireuksa.

What are you talking about?

I understand your goal wasn't achieved.

There is no need for unnecessary killings.

I don't know what you're talking about.

They are innocent people.

Be generous.

Listen carefully.

If you don't have power,

don't be devoted to anything or anyone.

Sir.

Let's go.

Move!

Let go!

I...

Give up.

If you let them go, I will become

a member of your political party.

I'm begging you.

Oh, boy.

I thought you would change with older age.

You're worse than before.

You can't be a member of my political party.

Sir.

I want people who will kneel

for themselves, not for others.

People like that never bite their master

if they're fed on time.

Let's go.

Yangji.

Yes.

This is Maitreya's will.

Don't be too sad.

I won't.

He will be surprised.

He will be very sad.

Move!

Step back.

They falsely accused general Lee Seonggye?

Yes.

They deserve to die.

You wretch!

Wretch!

You deserve to die.

You deserve to die.

Hey! Move!

Move!

Sir...

Sambong.

Sir!

Stop it!

How can you be so cruel?

Isn't that Poeun?

Yes.

Poeun.

I'd like to talk to Yangji.

Give them a moment.

Sir.

I prayed all night to see you just once

before I died.

I have no regrets now.

You won't suffer for long.

I know.

Hwang Yeon and Cheonbok will be

waiting for you.

Think about that.

Sir.

I have a favor to ask.

I'm a little scared.

Can you see me off?

Sir...

I will.

I will do that.

I'm not worried now.

Thank you.

Let's go.

Sir, don't forget me.

Okay?

I won't.

Sir.

Beat them!

Yes, sir!

Execute them!

Sir, your father just arrived.

How long can you stay?

I have to leave at day break.

Hobatu isn't the same as before.

Honey.

I have a name for the baby.

Bangseok. "Seok' meaning big.

What do you think?

It's nice.

He looks just like you.

He will become a big person who will rule the country.

Bangseok.

Bangseok.

Father, it's Bangwon.

Tell him to come in.

Come in.

I'll just report and leave.

I said come in.

The cold air will go in if I go in.

It won't be good for the baby and mother.

I don't want them to catch a cold.

Father.

Have you been healthy?

Did you have a drink?

I'm sorry.

I guess you didn't want to come in because you smell like alcohol.

Did you look into it?

Yes.

I will guide the way. Come with me.

Okay.

Wait.

I called her mother.

I'm going to wash my mouth.

Bring me a bowl of water.

Yes, sir.

It was pretty difficult to find.

A person who was close to the lady who gives alms buried her next to her brother.

It must be cold in there.

I made this with a fawn I caught.

This is all I can do for you.

I skin animals and kill people.

I tried to do a good job.

But I don't know much.

Your name is Yangji?

I'll just say one thing.

I'm sorry.

This is the place.

Sambong took a trip?

Yes.

He didn't say when he would return?

He said he would be a few months.

Our master is really worried about him.

Let us know when he returns.

I will.

I wish he would get a grip on himself.

Let's go.

Be sure to let us know.

I will. Have a safe journey.

Goodbye.

They're gone.

You're going to run.

The world is rotten.

Nothing is going your way.

It's not what you learned.

You're looking for a place to hide.

Mencius's Liang Hui Wang Zhangju Xia

King uan of Qi asked Mencius. Mencius's Liang Hui Wang Zhangju Xia

King Xuan of Qi asked Mencius.

King Tang killed King Jie of Xia and established Yin.

King Wu killed King Zhou and established Zhou.

Why did servants kill their kings?

Mencius answered.

Even if he is a king, if he harms benevolence,

he is 'zei'.

If he harms justice, he is "can'.

A person who is "canzei' is not a king.

Killing a king who is canzei

and putting another king on the throne.

It is not immoral nor is it usurpation.

It doesn't matter even if it is immoral

or if it is usurpation.

I won't run now.

I'm going to kill Goryeo for all the Yangjis who are left in the world.

I'm going to be a monster to

kill a 500-year-old monster.
