[Episode 15]

Did you find this?

I told you there's nothing to be scared about it.

God and heaven helped it!

Heaven didn't do anything.

It's all thanks to you calling out the Princess.

No. You and I did it together.

This is...

not my hand-writing.

What kind of love letter are you sharing right now?

It looks like that's a letter that I wrote.

What are you doing right now, Princess?

What kind of secret meeting are you having in this ungodly hour?

What secret meeting? Watch your words!

I think Your Highness has a misunderstanding.

Stop right there, Go Won Pyo!

Princess, did you lose your mind?

How dare you talk down to him!

Why?

Are you angry because your lover's name got called?

After seeing each other at the time to pick the Princess's husband,

this is the first time to see separately, isn't it?

Your father was an alive god of a sword.

He didn't pull out his sword at any time like you who are henpecked.

How dare you say his name with your dirty mouth..!

Don't be tricked by him.

He's doing that on purpose.

There's nothing you can prove with a fake letter.

Sometimes, a fake can bring out the truth.

Because there's someone who got ordered to steal that out.

Are you talking about your nanny?

She's a person who will run into a fire with kindling if you order her to do so.

Who will trust her words?

There's another witness.

Eight years ago,

the person who witnessed you two's secret love affair!

You saw it, but you didn't see anything,

you heard it, but you don't remember anything. That's how you can keep the palace in peace.

What happened back then left as a forever resentment in my heart!

If I told it to my mother a day earlier,

I could've prevented the tragedy of the royal family and Sunnobu.

- I don't know what you saw-- - Shut your mouth!

A Queen Consort of a country,

a mother of the Prince,

you ashamed that name with unchastity behavior.

It's even disgusting to talk about it.

Feel free to curse me!

Or should I kill myself right now?

You don't know the sorrow of a woman who got thrown away.

If His Majesty gave me any affection,

if he took care of me in one percent of his longing to your dead mother,

I would've lived a different life.

However,

you two killed my mother!

Including the innocent Sunnobu people!

Save your breath, Your Highness.

We don't have to waste our time talking about the past.

Just tell me what you want, Princess.

Leave the palace.

As soon as possible.

Whatever reason you have to say,

you need to leave the palace.

Quietly. So nobody can suspect the reason.

I'm the Queen Consort.

I can't get kicked out like this.

You brought this on to yourself.

For your son, Prince Geonmu's future,

I'm giving you a chance to leave in dignity.

So don't behave indecently anymore.

If you're going to tell me to leave as well, then stop it.

I'm not going to be pushed away that easily.

You have to...

give me something else.

Your Highness...

This stupid thing committed a deadly crime.

I know why you did that.

You would've wanted to protect the royal family.

Maybe...

Go Won Pyo might have threatened you by using the Crown Prince or me.

So I have no intention to blame you.

Your Highness...

Just keep two things in mind.

One is my father shouldn't know about the Queen Consort's incident.

And...

If you deceive me again,

I can't forgive you anymore.

I'll see you in the morning.

Are you regretting it?

Regret?

That you even used Madam Gong Son to dig a trap for Go Won Pyo.

No.

If I think about their infidelity,

I can't relieve my anger even if I rip them apart.

I don't regret anything.

You told me that letter was real to me.

That's because...

you're not good at lying.

I'm fine.

You can use me if you need me.

But, don't be like that to other people besides me.

Don't hurt other people,

and don't get hurt by other people as well.

Every place I step is like a thin layer of ice.

I can't tell who's the enemy and who's the friend.

When I woke up from the place that I got dragged,

there was Kim Cha Seung Daein.

Kim Daein?

Was he interrogating you about losing the tribute women?

Yes.

He was infuriated, saying that the damage was big.

That bastard!

He kidnapped Sonobu's successor for that mere thing!

I'm not going to leave him alone!

Please don't do anything.

Because I got released after promising I'll make up for the damage.

- But this is-- - Isn't every person in business...

feels the same way?

I'll take care of it, so don't worry about it anymore.

I'm glad you came back safely.

Have some rest.

General.

Don't ever...

disappear from my sight again.

Even if you hate me to death, never disappear.

Yes, I should do that.

Also,

don't ever try to deceive me

with a lie like right before.

I bet you got dragged because of the false report that you made, right?

If it were that kind of crime, I would've not come back alive.

It's not about that.

Okay.

Take care of your health first.

What do you mean by recuperating?

Why are you saying recuperating and pray for the Buddha all of a sudden?

I didn't say it in case I might make Your Majesty worry,

but I had been sick inside for a while,

so I hadn't been feeling well.

Oh, no.

Then we should call the doctors in.

Medicine has its limit.

I heard that the mineral water near Hobeob Temple is the best medicine for internal diseases.

Also, to pray for the Buddha,

I think I'll go there to recuperating for some time.

Please allow this, Your Majesty.

Of course, I allow this to cure you,

but the Prince is still young to follow you on that trip.

Prince should stay at the palace.

We don't know how long she might stay for recuperating.

So Prince shouldn't leave the palace.

I'll just take a couple of maids...

and quietly go.

I'm sorry, Queen.

I haven't gone to your quarters in a while,

so I didn't even know that you were sick.

It's all my fault.

Your subject does not deserve such grace.

Why don't you hurry up to leave today?

You mean right now?

The earlier she goes, the faster recovery she will be.

Father.

Why did you want to see me early in the morning?

Are you not coming home because I discouraged you?

One of my friends had trouble, so I went to check.

Do I know that friend?

No.

You don't have to know that friend.

- This is..! - From today, I will give you the authority to control...

the military of Gyerubu.

But before that,

I have to hear the plan that you are thinking about.

What is going on?

You look fine, but you have an internal disease?

Please,

look after the Prince.

Don't worry about other things,

and please take care of your physical and mental health.

The only thing that I want to tell you as your father

is that you have to come back in good health.

Mother!

Mother!

Mother, where are you going?

I'm going to a big temple that's far away.

I'll come back after praying to Buddha for your health.

I'll pray too!

For my father and mother's health!

I'll come back in a few days, so you should protect the palace as Prince.

Can you promise me that?

I don't want to! I want to come with you, mother!

Don't be sounding weak!

Until I come back, you have to work hard on your studies and martial arts. Did you understand me?

Mother...

I'll take good care of the Prince, so don't worry too much, Your Highness.

Mother!

Please don't go, mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother! Please don't go!

Mother!

Mother...

Did you see this?

Sa Woon Am of Sunnobu is going to attack the exclusive right to salt!

He should think about the consequence before he does something!

Are you worried about something else?

Let's decide one by one.

Aigo, Cheif Hae!

Gochuga!

It has been a while!

Since I survived until now, I can see you guys again!

Thank you for coming such a long way.

It is a bloody long way. [Yeon Chung Gi (the Chief of Jeolnobu)]

But only the Chief Sa came out to greet me.

The custom of the Jega association is not like before.

Have a seat, General Yeon.

Yes, sure! Let's have a seat.

I saw it on the way here,

and the palace seemed unsettled.

- The Queen went to a temple for recuperating. - Oh, no!

The Queen looks like she wouldn't bleed even someone poke.

What happened to her?

The capital garrison has a splendid dignity.

Are you coming back from escorting Her Highness the Queen to the capital gate?

A person who didn't receive the rank by His Majesty can not be armed in the city!

Gyerubu is an exception, so don't worry about us.

Everybody, drop your weapons!

You were just a mere assassin, but now you're acting arrogant...

after getting some advancement.

I told you to drop the weapon.

You're a mere Turks, after all.

Ah,

your brother, who you climbed the walls together,

I heard that he got slaughtered on the battlefield.

This bastard!

Both of you, stop!

Put your sword away.

I told you to put it away.

Take him with you.

Are you all out of your minds?

How can the capital garrison get into a fight like low-class people in the middle of city?

Do you know what state of affairs we're in right now?

The one who broke the rules is the Gyerubu people.

But how can you take out your swords?

- Poong Gae did it on my behalf-- - Please forgive me, Your Highness!

I will be cautious and cautious not to do this again!

Your Highness.

His Majesty is at the royal council hall now.

Okay.

Raise your head.

I might sound harsh, but I can't help it.

Since you all came into the capital, your behavior and mind should be different from when you were at the Ghost Valley.

They are all doing great!

I'm the slowest one.

Your Highness.

Ga Jin has a lot to take care of these days.

You guys know about that, too, right?

So she is... I mean, the Princess

is worrying about everything in her tiny head.

You must be...

- having a hard time. - What?

I'll try to console her, but I'm not good at talking, so...

Next is Sunnobu's appeal to return the salt exclusive right to the royal family.

Do you really think like that, Chief Sa?

Every tribe of the Jega association has sufficient wealth already.

I think it would be okay to return the exclusive right to salt to the royal family as before.

I praise your idea,

but it's something that five Chiefs of the Jega association should decide.

I agree.

It's nothing to talk about for a long time, so why don't we make a decision right now?

Chief Jin?

Chief Jin!

That's right.

In five Cheifs of the Jega association,

who agree to return the exclusive right to salt to the royal family,

should come out to the front.

Gochuga!

That's where the agreeing party is!

I also agree to return the exclusive right...

to the royal family, Your Majesty.

I, Pyeonggang,

have something to say on behalf of the public people.

Cotton ten meters is nothing for these people here,

but it's a very high tax for the regular people.

- To build Jangan castle, we have to tax more-- - Why do we have to

give that burden to the public?

Central nobles and the heads of provinces.

If we charge them, they can afford it!

How can the regular people only have the responsibility for the country?

You who enjoy everything and avoid responsibility...

should be ashamed!

Princess.

I'll do it first!

Jewelry and silvers,

I'll give out everything for building the Jangan castle, no,

for our country, Goguryeo!

That's right!

If the Queen Her Highness were still alive,

she would've said the same thing.

I will also follow the Princess's idea.

Setting a national tax is not a thing

you can decide on in a day or two, Your Highness.

- So why don't we-- - What do you think about this, Gochuga?

The proposal for the tax that Princess designed is very meticulous and solid.

We should hurry up and implement it to relieve the burden on the people.

A big storm will come.

He's not a person to yield...

I bet Go Won Pyo is sharpening his knife.

I don't think you need to worry too much, Your Majesty.

Princess Her Highness is here, and brave royal son-in-law is also protecting.

So he won't dare to raise his sword.

I'm going to get rid of it one by one.

The force that goes against your will,

and eating away the Goguryeo...

I'm going to eliminate them one by one.

Are you coming from the King's quarters?

Yes.

About building the Jangan castle,

I heard that you're going to get rid of the taxes for the common people?

I'm coming back from discussing that.

People will love it.

But the noble people will be freaked out about it.

You did a great job on difficult work.

Thank you.

Ga Jin.

I heard that there's a fortune-teller with strong supernatural power, so I just requested for a ritual to be pregnant...

I heard that a good fortune-teller opened a store in the capital.

Should I look into it?

She definitely knew about it.

What about it?

Who?

The Jangbaek herb store.

Yes?

I'm so stupid...

Why did I forget about that?

What is it? Leave the hard work to me.

It's okay. I'll ask Jin to do it.

She seemed...

to be very upset about it earlier.

She's a friend who survived multiple near-death experiences with me.

Then, what about Madam Gong Son?

What are you trying to say?

Don't try too hard.

Worries, assignments,

tackle one at a time.

Do as much as you can handle it.

Do you think I'm having fun?

I'm exhausted too!

It's chaotic and painful, but I can't help it!

It was unavoidable.

I had to do it.

That's what people say.

But, nothing is inevitable in this world.

I'll go out for a walk.

Dal!

I can see some stars here and there,

but the moon is freaking big!

Is it freaking big?

So, is the moon white or red?

I don't know.

It looks white-ish.

I'm a crazy person.

I shouldn't try to read fortune with the moon with a little girl like you.

There's no smart little girl like me!

Oh, sure! I'm sorry to ignore you.

Come here, and pick out my white hair.

Don't worry about Dal so much.

He became a decent General,

and his wife is the Princess, the most beautiful woman in the world!

What are you worried about him?

When you get old,

your worries increase as much as your wrinkles.

What are you so worried about?

Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla.

Why are they fighting so much?

What?

All of us are descended from the same blood and living on the same earth.

So the kings of three countries should get together and say, from now on, let's not fight and become one nation!

Then it would be fine.

My goodness!

Everybody!

The reincarnation of Kongming is here! Come here and have a look!

If that doesn't happen,

then I'll never be able to go back to my hometown.

Wol, do you...

Do you want to go to your hometown?

Yes.

Right.

That day will come someday.

If Dal and the Princess rule the world diligently.

Maybe you're catching a cold!

Let's go inside.

Yes.

Should I get you some scorched-rice water for you to warm up?

That would be nice.

Inside and outside the city, I heard many praising of Your Highness and the royal son-in-law.

You don't have to say that.

You became a big help in a lot of crises.

I'm more thankful to you, Your Highness, since you trusted me.

So, I wanted to thank you,

and I wanted to say something to you, so I called you in.

You have something to say to me?

Do you remember?

When you got dragged to this royal council hall,

you drank the medicine with confidence, saying that it's not poisonous.

I was thinking about what I owe to you,

and suddenly I got curious.

At that time, you followed Go Won Pyo's order,

and sometimes you followed my request.

Whose...

side are you on?

Why are you asking that all of a sudden?

Of course, I'm on your side, Your Highness.

At that time, I couldn't defeat Gochuga's threat--

You said it was inevitable.

I know that. But, you know.

You knew who Doo Joong Seo was.

Your Highness.

- If I had a different intention, then why would I-- - Shut your mouth.

It was your trick to bring Doo Joong Seo into the palace.

You didn't let him in because you didn't know him,

but you brought him in even though you knew his true identity.

- Your Highness. - Hae Mo Yong!

Are you going to keep deceiving me?

Tell me who you really are.

For the great work of three countries,

go back to Goguryeo.

Go back...

and kill Pyeonggang.

I made her do it!

The behind story is simple.

I told her to get Your Highness's trust,

pressed her with her weakness.

It would've been not easy for you, but you did great.

But neither of us knew about Cheonjubang's leader incident.

Instructor Go.

What else do you want to know?

I'll answer everything for you, Your Highness.

Do you think you know everything about her?

I know more than you, Your Highness.

Because she's my lover, and there's no lie in our relationship.

Hey!

What are you guys doing?

I came here because I heard there's a sound from the royal council hall,

and it was you guys?

Your Highness, what should we do?

What?

They disrespectfully showed physical affection in the royal council hall.

Should I cut them with my authority of the garrison commander?

You're going too far, sir.

Are you going to kill the captain of the royal guard?

Then forget about the rankings and fight with me.

Let's see who's sword is stronger.

Wait, Dal.

Store owner.

I was stupid to trust you because of your talent.

I won't call you in after today.

I'm deeply sorry, Your Highness.

Also, Instructor Go, don't think that you can stay next to my father.

You can't pretend to be a loyal subject anymore.

Do you think His Majesty trusted me because I pretended it?

I had a tinge of loyalty.

Like I had...

to you at some time.

You should go.

Stop making a barking sound.

I'll wait for the day to wield the sword with you, sir.

Sure.

Wash your neck and wait.

Let's go.

Something's happening.

What?

Instructor Go, and maybe even Go Won Pyo, is involved with it and scheming something together.

I'm sure about this.

Ga Jin.

It doesn't feel good.

What would it be?

Yeom Ga Jin!

Even if you don't try that hard by not sleeping at night, this country won't fall down!

Don't say something idle!

Are you, by any chance,

want to get on that seat?

You told me that when we were young.

That you can be the King even though you're a woman.

No.

Don't even say such disrespectful words.

Then it's fine.

Why?

You interfered unnecessarily.

- Did I have to pretend that I didn't know? - Yes, you should've done that.

What are you going to do now since you showed every card to the Princess?

And you're about to lose His Majesty's trust that you built up hard.

Instead,

I gained your heart, so I don't think it's a loss to me.

It's not the time for a joke!

About Doo Joong Seo,

I breached him out of prison.

How can you...

I can't turn it anymore,

nor there's something to hide.

Soon...

it will be the Upper Go family's palace.

Read this.

Is this...

Is this Gochuga's idea,

or is it a plan of General?

What's the difference?

It's a revolution for Gyerubu.

However...

Corps leader.

Yes, sir.

Your distinguished service of doing any hard work for the sake of the family...

I know it very well about it.

Thank you so much, sir.

After starting with this, and when Gyerubu's Goguryeo opens,

your duties will become more important.

Please let me take care of this, sir!

General.

What is it?

Don't you have some contact with the store owner these days?

Why do you ask about that?

I have someone who tells me about stuff in the capital,

and he said that store owner was disappeared for a couple of days.

Is that so?

There's also a rumor that she got dragged to Silla and barely survived and came back.

I'm investigating about her in secret in case she might be harmful to you, General.

I should look into this, too.

Thank you.

You don't have to say that, sir.

- Ah, Corps leader. - Yes, sir?

Your mission this time is very important.

We are closely monitoring Gyerubu's movement.

Since they lost the exclusive right to salt and got the tax burden,

I believe they will have many complaints.

They might show their complaints in action.

Not just monitoring Go Won Pyo's house,

but you should also check their private soldiers' movement.

Are you saying...

that Go Won Pyo is going to raise a coup?

If the father doesn't do it,

his son might do it.

Please keep your eyes on them.

Yes, Your Highness.

[Hwangju castle]

Look who's here! Welcome, Corps leader. [Yang Chaek (Lord of Hwangju castle)]

It has been a long time, my lord.

It would've been a long way for you to come. Come inside!

That's a shame.

Why don't you try it this time?

How long are you going to be gloomy?

You should buckle up more at times like this.

Stop crying!

Wow, I didn't know there was this beautiful archery place!

You shouldn't be crying when you're doing something fun.

Your Highness, do you want to have a bet with me?

A bet?

If I split the Crown Prince's arrow into half in three chances,

you promise me not to cry anymore.

Are you going to hit the arrow with an arrow?

How can you do that?

If I lose the bet, I'll walk around upside down for the whole day.

- Okay! - That's ridiculous...

What is it? You're terrible!

It was a practice!

Wow, how can you do this?

When did you learn archery?

I didn't learn it.

I just saw other people doing it.

Really?

Brother! Come here!

Okay!

Thanks to you, Prince feels better now.

Thank you, brother-in-law.

You don't have to thank me since we're all family!

Younger-brother-in-law!

He's not a person to yield.

I bet Go Won Pyo is sharpening his knife.

How can you not even see when your husband is here?

- Did you just come back? - Yes.

What's wrong?

I went to Sunnobu's house today.

I was going to make up with Jin,

but I couldn't even see her.

Don't be too anxious.

You told me so before

that she's a special friend.

I will.

Isn't it heavy?

If the armor is heavy,

then I should give up my position as garrison commander.

Why?

Why don't you not be the garrison commander today and hang out with me?

- What? - Follow me.

What? Oh!

Hey!

If Madam Gong Son knows that Mokryun-dang is empty, then she would be startled.

Don't be scared!

I want to have some snacks and buy a mirror.

It'll be a tacky one if we buy it at a marketplace!

You have a lot more good ones already.

I don't have anything that you bought for me!

- Why do you yell at me? - Follow me!

♫ You are living in my eyes ♫

♫ Am I visible to your eyes too? ♫

Kudzu is here!

- Wow! Is this a kudzu? - Yes!

- Where did you find this big one? - I found it in a mountain over there!

- It's giant kudzu! - It's doraji!

- Is it a doraji? - Come here!

♫ Even if it takes long, ♫

♫ Even if so much time passes, ♫

♫ My love, my love ♫

♫ All will be good with myself reflected ♫

♫ In your eyes one day ♫

♫ That one thing ♫

♫ All will be good with myself reflected in your eyes ♫

♫ All I hope is ♫

It's a priceless expensive medicinal herb.

- Tell the store owner that I said thank you. - Yes, sir.

Please keep an eye on the movement of the King's quarters.

- What do you think about this one? - It's pretty.

What about this one?

That's pretty, too.

How can you say everything is pretty?

You should pick just one.

Let me see! Which one is the best?

Maybe this one?

Ga Jin.

I'm sorry.

Let's just pick one.

You're alive.

Now I understood.

Go Geon of Gyerubu and the herb store owner were scheming together.

The one who first broke the promise is you.

You attacked the King without discussing with me prior...

And also, you were going to kill the Crown Prince.

So what?

There must be a reason why you spared my life.

I'm going to release you.

Also, I'll give you a chance to do the revenge.

So gather your subordinates,

and kill the King.

Are you asking me to be the frontman of treason?

Don't worry about it.

When you kill the King and go, Gyerubu will take care of the rest.

I'm going to give the King the punishment,

and you'll get the justification to dominate the palace?

Weapons and money,

I'll get you everything that you need.

What about after the big day?

Like the old saying, a useless hunting dog gets boiled in a hot pot.

I don't think you're losing anything.

Hey, if it weren't me,

you would've been holding your grudge forever

and be executed.

What do you want to do?

It'll spread evenly in your body...

It's a drug that will disturb the bloodstream on the tenth day.

If you don't want to die with vomiting blood,

you have to come to me to get the antidote.

I won't run away without this kind of trick.

Then show me.

I don't have...

any intention to fight with you guys.

Ta Rah Jin.

Did you think you can survive after betraying the group?

Stop it!

Do you remember what this meant?

Did you forget it already?

What does this represent?

I know what it is.

It's a keepsake that means we're on the same side.

Aren't you smart?

We're on the same side,

and also we're married now.

The Goguryeo that you dream about,

the country that you want to make,

I'm going to live there, too.

So you can wield it freely.

I...

I came to this world to become your sword.

In the end, Ga Jin is King's daughter.

To her, her father and Goguryeo are the only concerns.

But what about you?

You're not a Goguryeo person, and you even lost your only brother.

Because of Ga Jin!

I just fought together as a friend.

You're being used!

That's not true!

The one who took, raised, and taught your siblings is me.

Is friendship important, but mercy is nothing?

Goguryeo is not our country.

Remember the spirit of Cheonjubang.

[Hwangju castle]

I'm exasperated with anger!

How can they tax the provincial lords to gain the favor of the public!

King and Princess, they are all wrong!

That's why Gochuga gave you that important role.

When the Hwangju castle leads,

followed up with every region's lord protests,

Gyerubu will respond to that public sentiment.

Please tell this to Gochuga when you go back.

This Yang Chaek!

I'm willing to raise the army!

Gochuga will highly value your courage as well!

Will he?

When Hwangju castle uprises first, nearby lords will join the force.

At the moment of the uprise,

the main force's punitive force will go out.

How are you going to deal with that?

I saw General Nam Yoon, and I spoke with commanders under him as well.

You did well.

If we succeed in this revolt,

I'm going to seat you on the throne.

Father.

I'll step back and help you from behind.

My Goguryeo will be...

a country that you have never seen before.

I'm going to make Silla and Baekje surrender first,

and beyond the northern territory that Gwanggaeto the Great had it,

I will rule in the name of Goguryeo.

I should live long and healthy.

To see your Goguryeo with my eyes.

What did you just say?

Your siblings...

wanted to go back to your hometown when you stop working as assassins.

To the plain where Turks live.

So?

Are you saying it's fine for me to leave?

It's not something that you have to get my permission.

You should've done what you wanted to do.

I thought you would always be next to me

and help me forever.

I only thought as I please.

- Ga Jin... - You must have been having a hard time after San passed away,

and I was too remote. I'm sorry.

By the way, about Bangju.

Aren't you worried since he ran away like that?

I bet he'll come whenever.

I'm waiting for him.

You're waiting?

I should've killed him at that time.

I'm not going to miss him this time.

Why did she call you in so early in the morning?

Is it because of the fight with Gyerubu the other day?

Why are you looking at me like that?

Poong Gae...

You're good at archery!

Who did you learn it?

Instructor Go.

I know that he has a past with my sister, but please don't hate him too much.

Brother-in-law.

Should three of us have a match together next time?

Why don't you try it again?

Instructor Go deceived both you and the Crown Prince, father.

Then, do you think he's abetted by Go Won Pyo?

It might be, or it might not be.

Those rats.

I think...

the Gyerubu is scheming an evil plot.

An evil plot?

There's a person that Gochuga planted in the King's quarters as well.

Are you talking about Taegam? I'm aware of it.

Father!

It was confusing when I was drunk on drugs and alcohol,

but now I can see it clearly.

Including that he is Go Won Pyo's person!

But then why do you keep him next to you alive?

He will be useful at least for once as bait to catch Go Won Pyo.

Your Majesty! Yang Chaek of Hwangju castle rose a revolt with soldiers!

What?

[Yang Chaek (The Lord of Hwangju castle)]

Please let me go.

Dal!

It's not a case for a royal son-in-law to step up.

- There are separate soldiers who punish traitors-- - I should go..!

So that the Princess can be relieved.

Dal, you don't have to do this.

Who else can do this if it's not me?

I'll take care of it.

Trust me.

Please let me go, Your Majesty!

Gochuga, are you out of your mind?

How can you abet treason?

It's not treason, but it's a natural consequence.

Also, it's about correcting the evil committed by King and the Princess.

Hwangju castle's soldier is less than two thousand.

Even if they gathered some more, it would be about three thousand,

then when the punitive force comes...

The punitive force already took our side.

One of the main force's commanders, the one who takes care of punitive force, is General Nam Yoon.

Even if he goes out for the punitive expedition,

he promised me that he wouldn't fight.

Not just General Nam,

but commanders under him also promised to follow my plan.

O-Okay! Then, it's a relief.

Then...

What's the next step?

If there's a local uprising led by Hwangju castle,

I will stand by with the people's will and raise the army.

I'll strike into the palace and take down the King.

- Gochuga! - We're having a discussion!

Stay away.

The royal son-in-law is leading the punitive force and heading to the Hwangju castle now.

What?

On Dal is leading the punitive force?

It's karma.

It is strong karma.

♫ I will become love to you ♫

♫ You will become tomorrow to me ♫

[River Where the Moon Rises]

Princess Pyeonggang, I dare to take the position of captain of royal guards.

If I can punish Go Won Pyo, I'm willing to become him.

- I wanted you not to commit any crime, so instead I-- - Became my sword?

You said you're doing it for me, but you totally let me down!

Face reality straight!

It's dead.

If you want to save the Prince, then take the winning side.

The winning side?

If my woman wants to become an evil person like Go Won Pyo,

I can't just let it happen.

Your Majesty!

You will enter the palace as a servant in the day, but you will become

the ruler of the palace at night.

I'm sorry, Dal...
