1
00:00:19,301 --> 00:00:22,002
I can't go because
Zhu Yuanzhang's intention
2
00:00:22,003 --> 00:00:24,105
is to kill me,
3
00:00:24,106 --> 00:00:29,106
so joseon can't have independent
4
00:00:29,711 --> 00:00:31,122
national defense.
5
00:00:32,581 --> 00:00:38,224
How should we solve this problem then?
6
00:00:41,089 --> 00:00:43,296
There is a way.
7
00:00:45,127 --> 00:00:46,197
What is it?
8
00:00:46,795 --> 00:00:46,994
We have to force Ming
9
00:00:46,995 --> 00:00:49,063
We have to force Ming
Episode 48
10
00:00:49,064 --> 00:00:49,830
We have to force Ming
11
00:00:49,831 --> 00:00:53,868
to seek friendly relations.
12
00:00:53,869 --> 00:00:55,669
How?
13
00:00:55,670 --> 00:00:57,707
We have to attack Yodong.
14
00:01:07,949 --> 00:01:12,949
What did you just say?
15
00:01:13,722 --> 00:01:18,722
I will raise an army and take Yodong.
16
00:01:21,062 --> 00:01:23,372
Please give me your approval.
17
00:01:35,777 --> 00:01:40,777
You want to attack Yodong?
18
00:01:41,416 --> 00:01:45,319
I have been watching Ming and Yodong
19
00:01:45,320 --> 00:01:47,800
since the founding of this nation.
20
00:01:48,657 --> 00:01:53,657
If we just attack Ming's Yodong headquarters
which is isolated,
21
00:01:55,297 --> 00:01:57,504
we can take Yodong.
22
00:01:58,700 --> 00:02:00,167
We can't do that.
23
00:02:00,168 --> 00:02:01,869
We can't attack Yodong.
24
00:02:01,870 --> 00:02:04,805
It would be declaring war against Ming.
25
00:02:04,806 --> 00:02:08,375
You remember what happened
26
00:02:08,376 --> 00:02:11,212
when Choi Yeong tried to attack Yodong.
27
00:02:11,213 --> 00:02:13,314
It is out of the question!
28
00:02:13,315 --> 00:02:16,016
Things are different now.
29
00:02:16,017 --> 00:02:17,952
Goryeo was weak then and
30
00:02:17,953 --> 00:02:21,522
Ming was really powerful.
31
00:02:21,523 --> 00:02:24,558
We are powerful now and
32
00:02:24,559 --> 00:02:27,928
Ming doesn't have the leisure
to rule Yodong.
33
00:02:27,929 --> 00:02:31,065
It is being neglected.
34
00:02:31,066 --> 00:02:33,868
That might be true,
35
00:02:33,869 --> 00:02:37,137
but they won't just sit and be attacked.
36
00:02:37,138 --> 00:02:41,675
How do you plan to fight against
Ming's army of a million?
37
00:02:41,676 --> 00:02:44,345
Ming will not be able to cross
38
00:02:44,346 --> 00:02:45,913
east of Liaohe River.
39
00:02:45,914 --> 00:02:49,691
How can you be so sure?
40
00:02:59,094 --> 00:03:00,995
Your Majesty.
41
00:03:00,996 --> 00:03:03,631
I don't think it's appropriate to tell you
42
00:03:03,632 --> 00:03:08,632
all the details in front of everyone.
43
00:03:09,905 --> 00:03:14,905
I will tell you the strategies privately.
44
00:03:15,210 --> 00:03:19,750
How about ending this meeting?
45
00:03:24,886 --> 00:03:27,187
Fine.
46
00:03:27,188 --> 00:03:29,323
Let's do that.
47
00:03:29,324 --> 00:03:32,100
Thank you.
48
00:03:51,379 --> 00:03:52,790
Attack Yodong?
49
00:03:53,081 --> 00:03:57,723
He is just struggling to avoid going to Ming.
50
00:03:58,453 --> 00:04:01,764
He's putting the country in danger
to save his own life.
51
00:04:02,657 --> 00:04:04,391
He only said that
52
00:04:04,392 --> 00:04:07,561
to overcome a critical situation.
53
00:04:07,562 --> 00:04:10,197
It's only to mislead everyone.
54
00:04:10,198 --> 00:04:13,667
Sambong is not
a narrow-minded person.
55
00:04:13,668 --> 00:04:18,668
Isn't it absurd to attack Yodong?
56
00:04:20,108 --> 00:04:23,677
Sambong's people-oriented theories
57
00:04:23,678 --> 00:04:27,982
also seemed absurd at first.
58
00:04:27,983 --> 00:04:32,659
He isn't just saying it.
59
00:04:42,263 --> 00:04:44,209
Where is Ujae?
60
00:04:44,833 --> 00:04:48,869
He wasn't in the office.
I left word with a subordinate.
61
00:04:48,870 --> 00:04:51,538
How did you come up with
62
00:04:51,539 --> 00:04:53,440
such an amazing idea?
63
00:04:53,441 --> 00:04:56,677
It's like catching two birds with one stone.
64
00:04:56,678 --> 00:04:58,879
What are you talking about?
65
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,716
You announced an attack on Yodong.
66
00:05:02,717 --> 00:05:06,887
The emperor of Ming will be Ar about it soon.
67
00:05:06,888 --> 00:05:11,888
He will be too scared to be forceful.
68
00:05:13,895 --> 00:05:16,273
Wasn't that your plan?
69
00:05:17,065 --> 00:05:20,842
Why is it two birds?
70
00:05:21,903 --> 00:05:24,304
We can also use the attack
71
00:05:24,305 --> 00:05:26,240
to abolish the private armies.
72
00:05:26,241 --> 00:05:29,209
That's why.
73
00:05:29,210 --> 00:05:31,156
Right?
74
00:05:32,347 --> 00:05:33,724
No.
75
00:05:35,450 --> 00:05:37,317
No?
76
00:05:37,318 --> 00:05:41,822
You really want to attack Yodong?
77
00:05:41,823 --> 00:05:45,025
As the person with military power,
78
00:05:45,026 --> 00:05:47,094
how can I make such a false assertion?
79
00:05:47,095 --> 00:05:52,095
You really want to fight Ming?
80
00:05:53,101 --> 00:05:55,369
I already told everyone.
81
00:05:55,370 --> 00:05:57,538
Ming won't be able to cross
82
00:05:57,539 --> 00:06:00,140
east of Liaohe River,
83
00:06:00,141 --> 00:06:02,042
so there will be no fight.
84
00:06:02,043 --> 00:06:03,545
What is that?
85
00:06:04,612 --> 00:06:05,913
There is a rumor that
86
00:06:05,914 --> 00:06:09,183
Zhu Yuanzhang took to bed ill.
87
00:06:09,184 --> 00:06:11,485
He is seventy.
88
00:06:11,486 --> 00:06:13,420
They are quiet about it,
89
00:06:13,421 --> 00:06:15,923
but I'm sure the rumor is true.
90
00:06:15,924 --> 00:06:20,924
His grandson is young, so there are
secret fights and purging
91
00:06:21,429 --> 00:06:24,665
regarding the successor to the throne.
92
00:06:24,666 --> 00:06:27,735
They can't gather an army to cross
93
00:06:27,736 --> 00:06:31,205
Liaohe River.
94
00:06:31,206 --> 00:06:33,640
If we take Yodong,
95
00:06:33,641 --> 00:06:37,945
Ming will choose to negotiate with us.
96
00:06:37,946 --> 00:06:41,482
Even so, there's always that one chance.
97
00:06:41,483 --> 00:06:43,986
We can't be sure.
98
00:06:49,424 --> 00:06:52,059
This is east of Liaohe River.
99
00:06:52,060 --> 00:06:55,629
Who lived here the longest?
100
00:06:55,630 --> 00:06:58,432
The jurchens.
101
00:06:58,433 --> 00:07:01,702
They don't have a country,
so their tribes are dispersed.
102
00:07:01,703 --> 00:07:05,639
They are descendants of Gurun
103
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,553
who drove Song dynasty south at one time.
104
00:07:09,911 --> 00:07:12,146
What do you think would happen
105
00:07:12,147 --> 00:07:16,220
if such brave people were on joseon's side?
106
00:07:19,888 --> 00:07:22,956
Shu jurchens north of Seobukmyeon are
107
00:07:22,957 --> 00:07:26,560
already responding to assimilation policies.
108
00:07:26,561 --> 00:07:28,962
Here.
The Sheng jurchens.
109
00:07:28,963 --> 00:07:32,199
They're a matter of time, too.
110
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,702
You mean all the effort you put into
the jurchens
111
00:07:35,703 --> 00:07:38,071
wasn't just for defense of
112
00:07:38,072 --> 00:07:39,773
the border area?
113
00:07:39,774 --> 00:07:43,343
It will be a year at most to abolish
private armies and
114
00:07:43,344 --> 00:07:45,179
appease the Sheng jurchens.
115
00:07:45,180 --> 00:07:50,180
We will recover Yodong and
116
00:07:50,218 --> 00:07:56,499
our great cause will be achieved.
117
00:08:00,762 --> 00:08:03,030
What do you think?
118
00:08:03,031 --> 00:08:04,908
Will you challenge?
119
00:08:07,268 --> 00:08:09,009
Yes.
120
00:08:10,238 --> 00:08:13,845
Me, too.
121
00:08:20,114 --> 00:08:21,058
Father!
122
00:08:21,916 --> 00:08:23,361
What is it?
123
00:08:24,652 --> 00:08:27,421
Jo jun is seeing His Majesty.
124
00:08:27,422 --> 00:08:28,594
“He?
125
00:08:29,390 --> 00:08:32,997
His actions are suspicious.
126
00:08:40,535 --> 00:08:44,449
We cannot attack Yodong.
127
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:50,640
Tell me why.
128
00:08:50,745 --> 00:08:54,281
Joseon has always been subservient
129
00:08:54,282 --> 00:08:57,117
to large nations.
130
00:08:57,118 --> 00:09:00,687
No matter how much Ming
looks down on us,
131
00:09:00,688 --> 00:09:02,823
it would be reckless to go to war
132
00:09:02,824 --> 00:09:06,493
so soon after founding the country.
133
00:09:06,494 --> 00:09:11,494
Ming is a powerful nation.
134
00:09:11,532 --> 00:09:14,534
How can we achieve a victory?
135
00:09:14,535 --> 00:09:19,609
You must not give your approval.
136
00:09:39,327 --> 00:09:42,296
I'm sorry for sitting in your seat.
137
00:09:42,297 --> 00:09:43,970
Be understanding.
138
00:09:47,302 --> 00:09:50,337
You told His Majesty
139
00:09:50,338 --> 00:09:53,615
we can't attack Yodong?
140
00:09:54,442 --> 00:09:56,143
That's right.
141
00:09:56,144 --> 00:09:59,780
Why didn't you discuss it with me?
142
00:09:59,781 --> 00:10:04,389
Would you have changed your mind?
143
00:10:05,386 --> 00:10:08,922
You carried out assimilation policies
for the jurchens
144
00:10:08,923 --> 00:10:12,759
and were consistent regarding Ming.
145
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,229
You've been planning this attack
146
00:10:16,230 --> 00:10:19,700
since joseon was founded.
147
00:10:19,701 --> 00:10:21,201
Am I wrong?
148
00:10:21,202 --> 00:10:23,637
What's wrong with that?
149
00:10:23,638 --> 00:10:25,472
It's wrong.
150
00:10:25,473 --> 00:10:28,442
It's a whole lot wrong.
151
00:10:28,443 --> 00:10:29,876
Why?
152
00:10:29,877 --> 00:10:31,945
Don't you know?
153
00:10:31,946 --> 00:10:35,182
You wanted to create a country based on
people-oriented theories,
154
00:10:35,183 --> 00:10:37,250
but you were planning to go to war.
155
00:10:37,251 --> 00:10:39,920
It might sound grand,
156
00:10:39,921 --> 00:10:43,223
but it's just an attack on
the Yodong headquarters.
157
00:10:43,224 --> 00:10:45,492
We're not going to war.
158
00:10:45,493 --> 00:10:49,162
We're only going to take ownerless land.
159
00:10:49,163 --> 00:10:50,764
Whatever it is,
160
00:10:50,765 --> 00:10:55,068
it will put the people in danger.
161
00:10:55,069 --> 00:10:58,872
That goes against the cause of
162
00:10:58,873 --> 00:11:01,308
a people-oriented nation.
163
00:11:01,309 --> 00:11:03,877
Do you think that is possible
without national defense?
164
00:11:03,878 --> 00:11:06,179
We can defend joseon
165
00:11:06,180 --> 00:11:08,782
even without taking Yodong.
166
00:11:08,783 --> 00:11:12,128
Maybe now since the jurchens are divided.
167
00:11:14,022 --> 00:11:15,655
But it is natural for those
168
00:11:15,656 --> 00:11:19,126
who are dispersed to gather again.
169
00:11:19,127 --> 00:11:21,328
If the jurchens unite and
170
00:11:21,329 --> 00:11:25,399
establish a country in Yodong and
171
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:30,400
pressure us from right above.
172
00:11:33,174 --> 00:11:37,377
What do you think will happen to us then?
173
00:11:37,378 --> 00:11:42,115
Were you concerned about them
more than Ming?
174
00:11:42,116 --> 00:11:46,887
We have to take Yodong and
subjugate them
175
00:11:46,888 --> 00:11:49,589
like the Mohe.
176
00:11:49,590 --> 00:11:53,760
That is the shortcut to keeping joseon safe
177
00:11:53,761 --> 00:11:56,229
and strong.
178
00:11:56,230 --> 00:11:57,937
You're wrong.
179
00:11:59,133 --> 00:12:01,468
Ming will not just sit by and
180
00:12:01,469 --> 00:12:04,504
let us join forces with the jurchens.
181
00:12:04,505 --> 00:12:09,505
You are putting joseon in danger.
182
00:12:11,646 --> 00:12:13,387
“He!
183
00:12:16,050 --> 00:12:21,050
Abide by my decision one last time.
184
00:12:24,926 --> 00:12:27,770
I will not.
185
00:12:28,930 --> 00:12:30,630
“He!
186
00:12:30,631 --> 00:12:34,901
If you are really concerned about
the safety of joseon,
187
00:12:34,902 --> 00:12:37,746
90 to Ming.
188
00:12:39,307 --> 00:12:45,849
That is the shortcut to keeping joseon safe.
189
00:12:49,383 --> 00:12:52,752
What did you just say?
190
00:12:52,753 --> 00:12:57,702
How can you say such a reckless thing?
191
00:12:59,060 --> 00:13:03,296
You are a minister.
Were you eavesdropping?
192
00:13:03,297 --> 00:13:09,578
Withdraw that comment and apologize.
193
00:13:11,372 --> 00:13:12,715
“He!
194
00:13:18,613 --> 00:13:19,683
Nam Eun.
195
00:13:20,982 --> 00:13:22,086
Let's go.
196
00:13:38,466 --> 00:13:41,768
It isn't about taking Yodong?
197
00:13:41,769 --> 00:13:45,080
It's about managing ownerless land?
198
00:13:49,277 --> 00:13:53,146
I see.
199
00:13:53,147 --> 00:13:54,915
This is only possible
200
00:13:54,916 --> 00:13:58,485
when you are on the throne.
201
00:13:58,486 --> 00:14:02,255
You grew up with the jurchens and
202
00:14:02,256 --> 00:14:06,593
fought in many battles with them.
203
00:14:06,594 --> 00:14:11,031
The jurchens consider you
204
00:14:11,032 --> 00:14:14,601
to be one of them and respect you.
205
00:14:14,602 --> 00:14:19,602
I think Jo Jun makes sense, too.
206
00:14:28,316 --> 00:14:29,693
Your Majesty.
207
00:14:30,651 --> 00:14:38,194
I think I need some time to think.
208
00:14:42,797 --> 00:14:44,331
Darn!
209
00:14:44,332 --> 00:14:46,499
This is all because of Jo jun.
210
00:14:46,500 --> 00:14:49,903
He should have just kept hooks
211
00:14:49,904 --> 00:14:51,605
and inventory.
212
00:14:51,606 --> 00:14:54,975
He isn't suitable to do such great work.
213
00:14:54,976 --> 00:14:56,319
Stop it.
214
00:15:08,856 --> 00:15:13,693
Look who's here.
Choi Yeong's incarnation.
215
00:15:13,694 --> 00:15:16,663
What brings you to the palace?
216
00:15:16,664 --> 00:15:19,766
I'm going to see father.
217
00:15:19,767 --> 00:15:21,901
I have to stop the tragedy of Wihwado
218
00:15:21,902 --> 00:15:23,540
from happening again.
219
00:15:24,905 --> 00:15:29,905
I told you to stay away from state affairs.
220
00:15:30,511 --> 00:15:33,280
I can't let the country fall
221
00:15:33,281 --> 00:15:35,982
because of one servant.
222
00:15:35,983 --> 00:15:37,584
What?
223
00:15:37,585 --> 00:15:40,998
Do you want to be taught a lesson?
224
00:15:42,023 --> 00:15:44,299
You are Lee Sukheon, right?
225
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,395
Do you think the country will fall
226
00:15:48,396 --> 00:15:50,864
if we take Yodong?
227
00:15:50,865 --> 00:15:52,098
I do.
228
00:15:52,099 --> 00:15:53,400
Why?
229
00:15:53,401 --> 00:15:56,703
It is a reckless, irresponsible, unjust
230
00:15:56,704 --> 00:15:59,275
and impossible delusion.
231
00:16:00,675 --> 00:16:03,451
Impossible delusion...
232
00:16:04,945 --> 00:16:09,683
I thought you could be pretty decent,
233
00:16:09,684 --> 00:16:12,886
but I guess you're just a good-for-nothing.
234
00:16:12,887 --> 00:16:15,989
Watch what you say.
235
00:16:15,990 --> 00:16:19,793
There was a good-for-nothing
236
00:16:19,794 --> 00:16:22,495
who acted rash just with passion.
237
00:16:22,496 --> 00:16:25,965
He was pushed to the edge of a cliff.
238
00:16:25,966 --> 00:16:30,966
One day, he dreamed the impossible.
239
00:16:32,039 --> 00:16:34,674
From that moment, he is still lacking,
240
00:16:34,675 --> 00:16:37,986
but at least he's not a good-for-nothing.
241
00:16:39,613 --> 00:16:43,149
If you don't want to be a good-for-nothing,
242
00:16:43,150 --> 00:16:45,552
you should have at least
243
00:16:45,553 --> 00:16:47,726
one impossible dream.
244
00:16:53,427 --> 00:16:54,770
Jeongangun.
245
00:16:56,764 --> 00:16:57,936
Yes.
246
00:16:58,733 --> 00:17:02,102
I'm only saying this out of concern
for your safety.
247
00:17:02,103 --> 00:17:05,905
Turn around and go back home.
248
00:17:05,906 --> 00:17:07,507
What?
249
00:17:07,508 --> 00:17:11,511
Don't come to the palace
250
00:17:11,512 --> 00:17:14,015
until this matter is settled.
251
00:17:15,583 --> 00:17:17,153
Go home.
252
00:17:21,589 --> 00:17:23,556
Fine.
253
00:17:23,557 --> 00:17:26,726
Since you gave us a good lesson,
254
00:17:26,727 --> 00:17:29,037
I will do that.
255
00:17:30,364 --> 00:17:32,432
Lesson?
256
00:17:32,433 --> 00:17:36,202
I'm the prince of this country.
257
00:17:36,203 --> 00:17:39,343
I can't be a good-for-nothing.
258
00:17:41,876 --> 00:17:48,691
I will have an impossible dream.
259
00:17:50,918 --> 00:17:52,625
I can't wait.
260
00:18:13,073 --> 00:18:16,145
No matter how much Ming
looks down on us,
261
00:18:16,544 --> 00:18:18,778
it would be reckless to go to war
262
00:18:18,779 --> 00:18:21,988
so soon after founding the country.
263
00:18:23,117 --> 00:18:24,918
This is only possible
264
00:18:24,919 --> 00:18:28,059
when you are on the throne.
265
00:18:31,258 --> 00:18:37,265
Your Majesty, Gwon Geun is here.
266
00:18:38,332 --> 00:18:39,902
Show him in.
267
00:18:50,778 --> 00:18:54,514
What brings you here?
268
00:18:54,515 --> 00:19:00,124
Ming sent a message.
269
00:19:01,689 --> 00:19:03,456
So?
270
00:19:03,457 --> 00:19:07,527
What nonsense did they babble this time?
271
00:19:07,528 --> 00:19:10,797
Jeong Chang, Kim Yakhang, Noh Indo
272
00:19:10,798 --> 00:19:13,904
and other envoys in Ming...
273
00:19:16,570 --> 00:19:18,481
They were executed.
274
00:19:20,241 --> 00:19:21,276
What?
275
00:19:22,776 --> 00:19:24,346
Your Majesty!
276
00:19:30,818 --> 00:19:33,094
Have everyone gather in the conference hall.
277
00:19:33,954 --> 00:19:35,355
What?
278
00:19:35,356 --> 00:19:37,495
Our envoys were executed?
279
00:19:38,492 --> 00:19:40,627
What is the reason?
280
00:19:40,628 --> 00:19:43,229
They were staying in Nanjing.
281
00:19:43,230 --> 00:19:47,700
They wore mourning clothes
to mourn over queen Sindeok's death.
282
00:19:47,701 --> 00:19:51,114
That made the emperor angry.
283
00:19:52,806 --> 00:19:54,741
He had them killed
284
00:19:54,742 --> 00:19:56,744
for wearing mourning clothes?
285
00:19:59,246 --> 00:20:01,714
It was just an excuse.
286
00:20:01,715 --> 00:20:04,717
Zhu Yuanzhang is like that.
287
00:20:04,718 --> 00:20:08,555
This is going to be a problem.
288
00:20:08,556 --> 00:20:10,523
Jeong Dojeon's claim to attack Yodong
289
00:20:10,524 --> 00:20:12,367
will be supported now.
290
00:20:21,969 --> 00:20:23,736
Your Majesty.
291
00:20:23,737 --> 00:20:28,174
Nothing this horrible has happened
292
00:20:28,175 --> 00:20:33,175
since we have been subservient to
large nations of the Central Plain.
293
00:20:33,180 --> 00:20:35,615
That is right.
294
00:20:35,616 --> 00:20:39,252
Barbarians don't even kill envoys
295
00:20:39,253 --> 00:20:44,253
for wearing mourning clothes
for a national funeral.
296
00:20:44,825 --> 00:20:49,395
You must not let this go.
297
00:20:49,396 --> 00:20:53,606
We have to teach them a lesson.
298
00:20:54,501 --> 00:20:56,269
Your Majesty.
299
00:20:56,270 --> 00:20:59,105
There is no need for patience.
300
00:20:59,106 --> 00:21:02,212
Please approve of the attack on Yodong.
301
00:21:05,012 --> 00:21:09,415
There is no need
302
00:21:09,416 --> 00:21:11,150
for patience?
303
00:21:11,151 --> 00:21:13,586
You still have to be patient.
304
00:21:13,587 --> 00:21:16,456
There is always conflict
305
00:21:16,457 --> 00:21:21,094
between two countries.
306
00:21:21,095 --> 00:21:25,632
A small country attacking a large nation
307
00:21:25,633 --> 00:21:29,102
just because it was humiliated is
308
00:21:29,103 --> 00:21:32,271
driving the country to its fall.
309
00:21:32,272 --> 00:21:36,275
Which country are you a minister of?
310
00:21:36,276 --> 00:21:37,844
Joseon.
311
00:21:37,845 --> 00:21:39,846
I love joseon and I am worried
312
00:21:39,847 --> 00:21:41,520
about the future of joseon.
313
00:21:42,750 --> 00:21:47,750
How can you make such a humiliating claim?
314
00:21:47,755 --> 00:21:52,525
Think about joseon's location.
315
00:21:52,526 --> 00:21:55,795
Wae, the barbarians in the north and Ming
316
00:21:55,796 --> 00:21:59,365
which is only 3 days away by boat.
317
00:21:59,366 --> 00:22:04,366
Is joseon's solution to survive force?
318
00:22:04,738 --> 00:22:07,273
It isn't.
319
00:22:07,274 --> 00:22:08,875
Stop it!
320
00:22:08,876 --> 00:22:12,412
The Central Plain operates around
a huge nation.
321
00:22:12,413 --> 00:22:14,981
The order is harsh.
322
00:22:14,982 --> 00:22:19,982
No matter how much Ming humiliates us,
323
00:22:21,922 --> 00:22:26,922
we must be patient and find other ways.
324
00:22:27,227 --> 00:22:31,564
That is the fate of joseon.
325
00:22:31,565 --> 00:22:35,468
Stop talking nonsense!
It's disgusting.
326
00:22:35,469 --> 00:22:37,303
This is the conference hall!
327
00:22:37,304 --> 00:22:40,473
Don't talk like that in front of His Majesty.
328
00:22:40,474 --> 00:22:41,782
Jo Jun!
329
00:22:44,011 --> 00:22:45,354
Stop!
330
00:22:48,682 --> 00:22:50,423
Stop it.
331
00:22:56,557 --> 00:23:00,593
Seeing the two of you,
332
00:23:00,594 --> 00:23:04,235
it will be no use leaving it up to the council.
333
00:23:11,672 --> 00:23:13,481
I will decide.
334
00:23:16,610 --> 00:23:19,181
You will abide by my decision.
335
00:23:22,883 --> 00:23:27,883
I cannot forgive that Zhu Yuanzhang wretch.
336
00:23:36,196 --> 00:23:38,064
Your Majesty!
337
00:23:38,065 --> 00:23:43,065
I also think the second state councilor
338
00:23:45,472 --> 00:23:53,789
is right in that we be patient.
339
00:23:56,383 --> 00:24:01,383
We don't have the power to defeat
340
00:24:02,089 --> 00:24:06,592
that wretch yet.
341
00:24:06,593 --> 00:24:09,262
Your Majesty, I'm sorry, but...
342
00:24:09,263 --> 00:24:11,265
Listen!
343
00:24:15,002 --> 00:24:17,778
lam talking.
344
00:24:26,814 --> 00:24:31,814
I'm sorry, Sambong, but I'm going to
put Jo jun in charge of
345
00:24:31,819 --> 00:24:36,893
the Three Armies Headquarters and
give him military power.
346
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,504
You will go to Dongbukmyeon.
347
00:24:53,373 --> 00:24:58,373
Cool off in a quiet place for a while.
348
00:25:09,389 --> 00:25:10,523
Your Majesty!
349
00:25:10,524 --> 00:25:16,998
This is a royal order.
350
00:25:26,173 --> 00:25:28,084
What will you do?
351
00:25:37,084 --> 00:25:42,295
I will obey your command.
352
00:25:50,464 --> 00:25:54,834
Thank you, Your Majesty.
353
00:25:54,835 --> 00:25:56,974
Thank you.
354
00:26:17,758 --> 00:26:21,727
Jeong Dojeon gave [0 jun
military rights and
355
00:26:21,728 --> 00:26:25,141
stepped down as
the panuiheung samgunbusa.
356
00:26:25,999 --> 00:26:28,100
In reality, he was demoted to
357
00:26:28,101 --> 00:26:31,037
the chief border inspector of
Dongbukmyeon.
358
00:26:31,038 --> 00:26:32,772
With a task to organize
359
00:26:32,773 --> 00:26:36,175
tile administrative area and
take a census,
360
00:26:36,176 --> 00:26:40,279
he went to Dongbukmyeon with Lee jiran.
361
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,248
It was the greatest crisis
362
00:26:42,249 --> 00:26:46,197
in the rule of the country.
363
00:26:52,859 --> 00:26:56,329
The relationship with Ming has to be
normalized quickly.
364
00:26:56,330 --> 00:26:58,731
Find someone to go as an envoy and
365
00:26:58,732 --> 00:27:02,802
focus on the letter.
366
00:27:02,803 --> 00:27:04,248
Yes, sir.
367
00:27:08,976 --> 00:27:09,842
Sir.
368
00:27:09,843 --> 00:27:10,743
Hello.
369
00:27:10,744 --> 00:27:11,882
Have a seat.
370
00:27:13,814 --> 00:27:18,718
Did you accept Yangchon as your faction?
371
00:27:18,719 --> 00:27:22,154
I don't have any factions.
I'm neutral.
372
00:27:22,155 --> 00:27:25,329
I only gave him a task because be is able.
373
00:27:27,794 --> 00:27:32,398
Forgive me if that was
unpleasant to hear.
374
00:27:32,399 --> 00:27:37,041
Why did you want to see me?
375
00:27:38,372 --> 00:27:42,308
You have been appointed a position.
376
00:27:42,309 --> 00:27:44,510
What is it?
377
00:27:44,511 --> 00:27:47,082
The provincial governor of Chungcheong-do.
378
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:58,920
I had high expectations when I heard
379
00:27:59,493 --> 00:28:02,094
jeongangun recommended me for a position.
380
00:28:02,095 --> 00:28:05,197
This is a hit disappointing.
381
00:28:05,198 --> 00:28:08,501
I might have renounced Sambong,
382
00:28:08,502 --> 00:28:13,105
but I'm still loyal to the crown prince.
383
00:28:13,106 --> 00:28:17,743
Stop instigating jeongangun and
384
00:28:17,744 --> 00:28:20,850
reflect in a rural area.
385
00:28:23,750 --> 00:28:25,661
I will remember that.
386
00:28:35,662 --> 00:28:39,665
Why is Jo jun being so arrogant?
387
00:28:39,666 --> 00:28:43,803
It's not arrogance.
It's innocence.
388
00:28:43,804 --> 00:28:48,804
He will realize a lot
when he is harassed in court
389
00:28:49,242 --> 00:28:52,655
without Sambong there.
390
00:28:53,914 --> 00:28:56,485
Have a safe trip.
391
00:28:58,418 --> 00:29:03,355
I will call you back no matter what.
392
00:29:03,356 --> 00:29:05,558
There's no need to rush.
393
00:29:05,559 --> 00:29:08,661
Just wait and see.
394
00:29:08,662 --> 00:29:10,663
Wait and see?
395
00:29:10,664 --> 00:29:13,699
It is the perfect chance to increase our power
396
00:29:13,700 --> 00:29:16,235
since Sambong is gone.
397
00:29:16,236 --> 00:29:20,473
We should prepare to impeach his factions.
398
00:29:20,474 --> 00:29:23,275
There's no need to rush.
399
00:29:23,276 --> 00:29:27,813
Nam Eun is grinding his teeth
against Jo jun.
400
00:29:27,814 --> 00:29:30,416
It would be wise to let them
401
00:29:30,417 --> 00:29:32,158
fight amongst themselves.
402
00:29:44,998 --> 00:29:47,933
Why are you prohibiting strategic training?
403
00:29:47,934 --> 00:29:50,202
How many times do I have to tell you?
404
00:29:50,203 --> 00:29:52,972
There won't be any large-scale training
405
00:29:52,973 --> 00:29:55,741
until relations with Ming improve.
406
00:29:55,742 --> 00:29:58,577
Just how long is that?
407
00:29:58,578 --> 00:30:02,281
We put years into forming a proper army.
408
00:30:02,282 --> 00:30:05,751
Are you going to ruin all that?
409
00:30:05,752 --> 00:30:08,387
I'm the one with the military power!
410
00:30:08,388 --> 00:30:12,324
I will decide.
Stay out of it.
411
00:30:12,325 --> 00:30:13,429
What?
412
00:30:15,529 --> 00:30:19,932
Are you going to ruin Sambong's
military reform
413
00:30:19,933 --> 00:30:22,468
with your power?
414
00:30:22,469 --> 00:30:23,636
What?
415
00:30:23,637 --> 00:30:26,238
You might be the head of
the Three Armies Headquarters,
416
00:30:26,239 --> 00:30:28,908
but don't forget that
all the generals and officials
417
00:30:28,909 --> 00:30:33,112
are Sambong's people.
418
00:30:33,113 --> 00:30:34,647
Councilor!
419
00:30:34,648 --> 00:30:38,617
I will give you a few days.
420
00:30:38,618 --> 00:30:42,388
If you don't change your mind by then,
421
00:30:42,389 --> 00:30:44,926
you should be prepared.
422
00:30:45,525 --> 00:30:47,993
What?
Prepared?
423
00:30:47,994 --> 00:30:51,397
Don't make me angry.
424
00:30:51,398 --> 00:30:52,877
Understand?
425
00:30:54,401 --> 00:30:56,176
How dare you?
426
00:30:58,538 --> 00:31:02,213
Let me just say one thing
as the crown prince's father-in-law.
427
00:31:03,410 --> 00:31:06,645
The crown prince is
428
00:31:06,646 --> 00:31:11,527
very upset with you right now.
429
00:31:24,331 --> 00:31:29,331
I heard you fought with an old friend.
430
00:31:31,972 --> 00:31:36,775
It is all because I am lacking,
431
00:31:36,776 --> 00:31:40,349
but they are making demands
I cannot accept.
432
00:31:42,349 --> 00:31:44,450
Councilor.
433
00:31:44,451 --> 00:31:45,951
Yes, Your Majesty.
434
00:31:45,952 --> 00:31:50,489
People even listen to wishes of the dead.
435
00:31:50,490 --> 00:31:53,767
Let's listen to those of the living.
436
00:31:54,861 --> 00:31:57,129
What do you mean?
437
00:31:57,130 --> 00:32:00,077
Strategic training.
438
00:32:01,167 --> 00:32:06,138
Leave it to Nam Eun.
439
00:32:06,139 --> 00:32:07,345
Your Majesty!
440
00:32:07,941 --> 00:32:12,941
You should make some compromises.
441
00:32:26,293 --> 00:32:28,794
His Majesty ordered strategic training
to continue. Section of Dongbukmyeon
442
00:32:28,795 --> 00:32:29,796
His Majesty ordered strategic training
to continue.
443
00:32:30,430 --> 00:32:33,932
It was a royal order?
444
00:32:33,933 --> 00:32:37,236
The crown prince and Nam Eun are
leading it.
445
00:32:37,237 --> 00:32:39,505
Jeongangun and the princes are
446
00:32:39,506 --> 00:32:41,407
cleverly sabotaging it,
447
00:32:41,408 --> 00:32:43,410
so they're having a hard time.
448
00:32:44,711 --> 00:32:45,849
Sambong.
449
00:32:52,652 --> 00:32:55,394
They're ready.
Let's go.
450
00:33:24,351 --> 00:33:28,120
You're so persistent.
451
00:33:28,121 --> 00:33:32,991
You should just pass the time
keeping census.
452
00:33:32,992 --> 00:33:35,794
You were demoted.
453
00:33:35,795 --> 00:33:40,141
Do you want to train soldiers?
454
00:33:42,635 --> 00:33:44,171
Well...
455
00:33:45,238 --> 00:33:53,020
I think His Majesty would want this.
456
00:34:02,889 --> 00:34:05,301
Hanyang training ground
457
00:34:12,065 --> 00:34:13,165
Why aren't you
458
00:34:13,166 --> 00:34:16,409
changing the flags to those of
the Three Armies Headquarters?
459
00:34:17,937 --> 00:34:21,106
We have been familiar with them for years.
460
00:34:21,107 --> 00:34:24,209
Why change them?
461
00:34:24,210 --> 00:34:29,210
Those are flags for your private army.
462
00:34:29,716 --> 00:34:31,550
They aren't private soldiers
463
00:34:31,551 --> 00:34:34,686
when receiving strategic training.
464
00:34:34,687 --> 00:34:38,323
They should carry the flags of
the Three Armies Headquarters.
465
00:34:38,324 --> 00:34:41,627
Unity is the life of an army.
466
00:34:41,628 --> 00:34:44,530
The private soldiers must not be
mixed up.
467
00:34:44,531 --> 00:34:48,233
They have to be to learn
468
00:34:48,234 --> 00:34:51,738
the different types of strategies.
469
00:34:53,706 --> 00:34:57,119
Why don't you be a bit more honest?
470
00:34:58,278 --> 00:35:00,913
You want to abolish the order of
private armies
471
00:35:00,914 --> 00:35:04,783
and have the soldiers get used to
a government order.
472
00:35:04,784 --> 00:35:07,019
You want to weaken the power of
473
00:35:07,020 --> 00:35:09,466
the princes and provincial commanders.
474
00:35:12,659 --> 00:35:16,128
Even so, that is no reason for them
475
00:35:16,129 --> 00:35:19,303
to refuse the flag of
the Three Armies Headquarters.
476
00:35:23,770 --> 00:35:28,770
Have them carry these flags.
477
00:35:29,509 --> 00:35:31,777
Yes, crown prince.
478
00:35:31,778 --> 00:35:33,189
Stop.
479
00:35:34,514 --> 00:35:36,748
It is an order by the crown prince.
480
00:35:36,749 --> 00:35:39,151
It is an unjust order.
481
00:35:39,152 --> 00:35:40,252
Look here!
482
00:35:40,253 --> 00:35:42,358
I said stop!
483
00:35:43,056 --> 00:35:44,296
Bangwon!
484
00:35:45,725 --> 00:35:47,295
Crown prince.
485
00:35:48,127 --> 00:35:51,296
Do you know what those soldiers are?
486
00:35:51,297 --> 00:35:54,039
They are our lives.
487
00:35:56,870 --> 00:35:59,872
What would you do if someone tried to
488
00:35:59,873 --> 00:36:03,175
take your life?
489
00:36:03,176 --> 00:36:06,612
Would you just let him do that and die?
490
00:36:06,613 --> 00:36:09,219
Or would you kill him?
491
00:36:12,785 --> 00:36:14,520
Jeongangun.
492
00:36:14,521 --> 00:36:19,129
You are threatening the crown prince.
493
00:36:21,227 --> 00:36:24,096
I wouldn't do that.
494
00:36:24,097 --> 00:36:26,976
I am only asking him to be wise.
495
00:36:28,301 --> 00:36:31,839
Tell me.
496
00:36:39,245 --> 00:36:44,245
Forget about the flags.
497
00:36:44,450 --> 00:36:46,054
Crown prince.
498
00:36:51,024 --> 00:36:55,227
The soldiers must be exhausted
from the heat.
499
00:36:55,228 --> 00:36:58,402
How about ending training today?
500
00:37:02,936 --> 00:37:06,315
His Majesty is here!
501
00:37:10,944 --> 00:37:12,778
Your Majesty!
502
00:37:12,779 --> 00:37:16,081
I knew it.
You should be training.
503
00:37:16,082 --> 00:37:18,722
I knew you'd be wasting time.
504
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,623
What brings you here, father?
505
00:37:25,058 --> 00:37:26,658
Nam Eun.
506
00:37:26,659 --> 00:37:28,036
Yes, Your Majesty!
507
00:37:29,429 --> 00:37:34,469
I will supervise the training from now on.
508
00:37:35,768 --> 00:37:39,375
Why are you doing this?
509
00:37:40,773 --> 00:37:42,184
Get ready.
510
00:37:43,109 --> 00:37:44,452
Yes, Your Majesty.
511
00:38:02,595 --> 00:38:03,665
Father!
512
00:38:05,765 --> 00:38:08,567
Songheon sent this letter and wine
513
00:38:08,568 --> 00:38:10,070
from the capital.
514
00:38:14,507 --> 00:38:18,744
Did you say Songheon?
515
00:38:18,745 --> 00:38:19,553
Yes.
516
00:38:20,580 --> 00:38:24,653
I never heard that name.
Do you know him?
517
00:38:37,096 --> 00:38:40,407
Who is it?
518
00:38:49,175 --> 00:38:50,677
Sambong.
519
00:38:52,245 --> 00:38:55,947
I wanted to write a letter
520
00:38:55,948 --> 00:38:58,554
without any formalities.
521
00:38:59,986 --> 00:39:03,422
Being the king wasn't any fun and
522
00:39:03,423 --> 00:39:06,958
the queen died from an illness.
523
00:39:06,959 --> 00:39:10,462
I was broken-hearted for a while.
524
00:39:10,463 --> 00:39:15,167
When you mentioned Yodong,
525
00:39:15,168 --> 00:39:20,168
it completely woke me up.
526
00:39:21,140 --> 00:39:24,710
Why did you announce
527
00:39:24,711 --> 00:39:28,013
such an important matter so publicly?
528
00:39:28,014 --> 00:39:35,592
That's why I sent you to Dongbukmyeon.
529
00:39:37,256 --> 00:39:42,256
jiran told me you are training soldiers
530
00:39:42,895 --> 00:39:46,431
and building a fortress wall.
531
00:39:46,432 --> 00:39:53,850
It's as if you knew what I was thinking.
532
00:39:54,507 --> 00:39:56,475
Sambong.
533
00:39:56,476 --> 00:39:59,311
Come back to the capital.
534
00:39:59,312 --> 00:40:04,312
Let's join forces and attack Yodong.
535
00:40:05,685 --> 00:40:12,193
Let's get that Zhu Yuanzhang wretch.
536
00:40:13,626 --> 00:40:15,861
Your Majesty...
537
00:40:15,862 --> 00:40:19,531
I thought you might be lonely,
538
00:40:19,532 --> 00:40:21,944
so I'm sending a bottle of wine.
539
00:40:25,371 --> 00:40:28,940
It is the pumpkin wine I brought to
540
00:40:28,941 --> 00:40:31,743
your house long ago.
541
00:40:31,744 --> 00:40:36,744
Think about that day and have a drink.
542
00:40:37,717 --> 00:40:46,296
Your lifetime friend in Hanyang,
Songheon.
543
00:40:54,133 --> 00:40:56,010
Your Majesty!
544
00:41:01,407 --> 00:41:03,250
Your Majesty!
545
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:31,671
I am going to attack Yodong.
546
00:41:32,738 --> 00:41:37,042
Your Majesty!
We can't do that!
547
00:41:37,043 --> 00:41:41,146
I already gave a royal order.
548
00:41:41,147 --> 00:41:46,358
Be prepared to greet Sambong.
549
00:41:53,326 --> 00:41:54,737
Councilor.
550
00:41:55,728 --> 00:41:58,072
Sambong arrived in the capital.
551
00:42:15,481 --> 00:42:17,482
It's been a long time.
552
00:42:17,483 --> 00:42:21,553
I came to greet you.
553
00:42:21,554 --> 00:42:25,092
You must have suffered in the border area.
554
00:42:26,259 --> 00:42:29,527
It was very beneficial for me.
555
00:42:29,528 --> 00:42:34,375
I was busy preparing to attack Yodong.
556
00:42:36,269 --> 00:42:37,646
Ujae.
557
00:42:39,572 --> 00:42:43,775
If you are still against attacking Yodong,
558
00:42:43,776 --> 00:42:45,619
resign from your position.
559
00:42:47,446 --> 00:42:52,657
That is the only way to maintain your life.
560
00:43:07,733 --> 00:43:08,939
Hyeongnim!
561
00:43:13,439 --> 00:43:15,307
jeong Dojeon is back.
562
00:43:15,308 --> 00:43:17,275
Where is he?
563
00:43:17,276 --> 00:43:22,276
He is attending a banquet
held by His Majesty.
564
00:43:23,749 --> 00:43:26,117
The atmosphere was so cozy.
565
00:43:26,118 --> 00:43:29,220
It was like old friends getting together.
566
00:43:29,221 --> 00:43:30,889
This isn't good.
567
00:43:30,890 --> 00:43:33,792
What will happen if he insists on
568
00:43:33,793 --> 00:43:36,227
attacking Yodong?
569
00:43:36,228 --> 00:43:38,964
He will try to abolish the private armies.
570
00:43:38,965 --> 00:43:41,533
You can't just sit by idly.
571
00:43:41,534 --> 00:43:43,878
You have to make plans.
572
00:43:45,137 --> 00:43:49,541
Bring my brothers.
573
00:43:49,542 --> 00:43:50,543
Yes.
574
00:43:54,613 --> 00:43:56,786
I will abolish the private armies.
575
00:43:58,150 --> 00:44:03,150
Is that the only way?
576
00:44:04,323 --> 00:44:07,525
We need a single order
577
00:44:07,526 --> 00:44:11,763
to take and manage Yodong.
578
00:44:11,764 --> 00:44:14,370
Private soldiers will not do.
579
00:44:17,236 --> 00:44:20,438
It will also strengthen
580
00:44:20,439 --> 00:44:23,174
the crown prince's position.
581
00:44:23,175 --> 00:44:27,590
You have to make a decision now.
582
00:44:29,281 --> 00:44:33,518
Even if I give an order,
583
00:44:33,519 --> 00:44:36,688
will my sons abide by it?
584
00:44:36,689 --> 00:44:44,608
They'll think it will threaten their lives.
585
00:44:46,165 --> 00:44:51,165
They could end up fighting.
586
00:44:53,639 --> 00:44:57,642
I'm sure they're already making plans
587
00:44:57,643 --> 00:44:59,589
since I am back.
588
00:45:00,546 --> 00:45:06,155
You have to do it with speed without notice.
589
00:45:07,853 --> 00:45:10,588
With speed...
590
00:45:10,589 --> 00:45:15,231
I mean right now.
591
00:45:18,864 --> 00:45:20,104
Your Majesty.
592
00:45:38,451 --> 00:45:40,251
We have to stop the attack on Yodong
593
00:45:40,252 --> 00:45:42,087
to keep our private armies.
594
00:45:42,088 --> 00:45:45,523
Gather the princes and
provincial commanders
595
00:45:45,524 --> 00:45:48,198
and write an appeal against it.
596
00:45:49,728 --> 00:45:54,728
I don't think an appeal will do it.
597
00:45:56,135 --> 00:45:59,204
He is right.
598
00:45:59,205 --> 00:46:01,239
Even if all the officials of joseon are
599
00:46:01,240 --> 00:46:03,541
against it, it will be no use.
600
00:46:03,542 --> 00:46:06,580
Is there another way?
601
00:46:07,913 --> 00:46:10,381
There is one.
602
00:46:10,382 --> 00:46:11,918
What is it?
603
00:46:12,251 --> 00:46:17,251
It's a hit rough, but it's the only way.
604
00:46:17,823 --> 00:46:19,860
A rough way?
605
00:46:21,594 --> 00:46:23,130
Raising an army.
606
00:46:28,567 --> 00:46:31,636
Did you say raise an army?
607
00:46:31,637 --> 00:46:32,945
Jeongangun!
608
00:46:33,739 --> 00:46:36,040
I will take the lead.
609
00:46:36,041 --> 00:46:40,080
I will take full responsibility.
610
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:44,550
Join me.
611
00:47:10,643 --> 00:47:11,951
Banggwa.
612
00:47:18,250 --> 00:47:19,752
What do you want?
613
00:47:22,188 --> 00:47:24,327
Honey!
Honey!
614
00:47:34,333 --> 00:47:35,334
Honey!
615
00:47:36,502 --> 00:47:39,437
What are you doing?
616
00:47:39,438 --> 00:47:41,940
We came to seize your weapons and
617
00:47:41,941 --> 00:47:44,776
get a list of your private soldiers.
618
00:47:44,777 --> 00:47:45,812
What?
619
00:47:46,178 --> 00:47:48,283
They took action first.
620
00:47:50,683 --> 00:47:52,458
Lower your weapons!
621
00:48:04,597 --> 00:48:05,507
Honey.
622
00:48:06,098 --> 00:48:08,374
You will have to kill me
623
00:48:08,934 --> 00:48:11,107
if you want the weapons and the list.
624
00:48:12,404 --> 00:48:14,008
Step back.
625
00:48:17,476 --> 00:48:19,244
Jeongangun!
626
00:48:19,245 --> 00:48:20,883
I said step back!
627
00:48:24,350 --> 00:48:26,296
Lower your weapon.
628
00:48:39,164 --> 00:48:41,933
Reckless resistance is meaningless.
629
00:48:41,934 --> 00:48:43,568
As of today,
630
00:48:43,569 --> 00:48:46,379
the private armies of joseon
have been abolished.
631
00:48:47,973 --> 00:48:49,680
Jeong Dojeon.
