What is this?

(Episode 4)

Who are you?

How are you here?

We must hurry.

Let us go.

Who...

Who exactly are you?

Who are you really?

Speak the truth this instant!

Can you first let go of me?

First, tell me who you are.

Who are you?

Fine.

Then at least tell me how you knew I was being held here.

My lady informed me,

and all I did was follow her command.

Everything you did for me so far...

was ordered by your lady.

Is that it?

- Yes. - How did your lady know...

to send you my way every time I was in danger?

Did I ever cause you trouble?

Like you said, all I did was help you.

So why are you on my case?

I must at least know whose side you are on...

to follow your lead.

Can we please leave?

We will be captured again at this rate.

You can take it up with her...

but after we leave this place.

We should rest for a while.

Are you all right?

The pain is bearable, so do not worry.

Allow me to attend to your wound.

Forget it.

It is not like I want to do this.

So do not bother.

No one asked for your help.

Please do not be childish.

- What? - If this is not childish behaviour,

I do not know what is.

You acting this way will not make me tell you who I am.

Gosh.

Wait...

You are a physician,

a decent horseback rider, and know how to fight.

On top of that, you have a way with words.

There is no female servant in Joseon who is anything like you.

Please get some sleep.

Your energy must be restored.

For one last time,

I ask you this.

Was it really your lady...

who put you up to this?

Yes.

Your lady ordered you to help me,

and none of this was done...

of free will?

That is correct.

Fine.

You are dismissed.

I ought to rest.

I should not have let my guard down.

I should have been more careful,

and I am to blame.

Please forgive me.

She is someone you answer to, after all.

How could you have gotten in her way?

I am to blame for not keeping my daughter in check.

If I find out where she has taken him...

And how would you do that?

By torturing her to speak?

(Goshin: Torturing)

Father.

It is I, Myung Yoon.

Are you not ashamed?

Do you believe that killing me...

will keep your dirty hidden affair from surfacing?

If that is not enough,

I will kill anyone and everyone who knows...

about the secret.

What a devious, despicable monster.

Do you know anything about this acupuncture needle canister?

I gave this out to the physicians at the Royal Infirmary.

I wish to find the owner of this canister.

Would you be able to help me?

All I did was help you.

So why are you on my case?

I must at least know whose side you are on...

to follow your lead.

Do not forget.

The lives of the King, the Queen,

and Prince Dosung depend on what comes out of your mouth.

Yes,

I helped him escape.

He is a man of great fortune...

judging by how you seem to save his life every time.

If luck had favoured him,

he would not have been abducted in the first place.

He was abducted for your sake.

I am aware of it.

I know you made a difficult choice for my sake.

And knowing that...

is the reason I helped him escape.

You have spent your whole life saving the lives of people.

And I could not sit around...

and let you get blood on your hands for my sake.

Because I am aware of who you are,

I will not find fault with your past actions.

However,

this is as far as you will go.

Where did you hide him?

I asked...

what you did with him.

How can you ask me to hurt the person...

that I helped to safety?

Are you actually that clueless?

The moment he lives and speaks of the truth,

your chances of becoming the Crown Princess and...

I will not participate...

in the bridal selection order.

Whether it was by force or not, I was in bed with another man...

You are dismissed.

- Father. - I told you...

to remove yourself!

Father.

The earth and skies know...

that I have lost my right to be Crown Princess.

How could you even think to fool them?

Moo Baek, are you out there?

Escort the lady to her room.

I...

am terrified.

I plead with you...

because I cannot dare to handle the repercussions.

How could I possibly dare to marry the Crown Prince...

while knowingly deceiving him?

I...

will spend my life by your side caring for the sick.

For trying to deceive the royal family,

and for hurting an innocent man,

I will repent my sins by condemning myself to solitude.

That being said, I ask that you do not pursue this man.

Lord Choi can be harsh.

As if you did anything wrong.

Of course I am to blame.

This all happened because of me.

Nonsense.

This only happened because Lord Choi...

had that scholar abducted.

If I had not been born with a disastrous fate,

my father would not have chosen to abduct a man for my sake.

My lady,

you said you did not believe in our fates being written.

I do not.

I do not believe it at all.

However, judging by the mess I got in before marriage...

proves that I am not destined to walk a bed of roses.

My lady...

Do not worry too much.

I will stand guard all night outside the lady's room and...

No.

But that is the only way to find the Crown Prince.

She is a clever girl.

If she catches wind of herself being watched,

she will not make any moves.

Then, what do you propose I do?

We shall let her be...

until she feels safe enough...

to visit the Crown Prince.

Your Majesty.

The Chief Royal Secretary...

(Doseungji: Chief Royal Secretary)

met an untimely death.

(Doseungji: Chief Royal Secretary)

What do you mean by that?

An untimely death?

How...

How could this have happened?

It happened last night,

and I have yet to be informed of the details.

Did you speak to another...

about what we discussed?

I do not know what you mean by that.

The other day, I told you that I sent word...

to the Training General through the Chief Royal Secretary.

(Hunryeondaejang: The Training General)

Did you speak of that to anyone else?

Why will you not answer me?

Did you speak of it or not?

Truth be told,

constant worries were keeping Mother up at night...

that I told her to calm her down.

If the Queen knew,

then the Left State Councillor knew as well.

Is that why the unthinkable happened?

The Chief Royal Secretary is dead.

He died before he could relay the message...

to the Training General.

Were you the one who told Grandfather?

Tell him what?

You are the only one I told about Father sending a message...

to the Chief Royal Secretary.

I ask because Grandfather seems to know that as well.

Well, I...

Father was here to visit me,

and with the Crown Prince gone,

he seemed to be worried...

about there being trouble within the palace...

- which is why... - The Chief Royal Secretary is dead!

Do not forget you are addressing the Queen.

Please lower your voice.

Someone killed the Chief Royal Secretary...

to stop His Majesty from rallying the troops.

That someone has to be either Father, Mother, me,

or you, Grandfather.

Only those four people know that such an order was given...

to the Chief Royal Secretary.

Father!

Why did you do it?

Was it as per the Queen Dowager's orders?

What did you receive...

in exchange for doing her dirty work?

That is correct.

I did receive something.

Are you curious about what I received in return?

A promise that you and your mother would be kept alive.

You two do not have a single clue...

how terrifying the Queen Dowager can be.

Do you know how the former king was deposed?

If she puts her mind to it,

she could have His Majesty deposed in a heartbeat.

Do you believe...

that someone like her will think you are out of reach?

My priority is not His Majesty or the Crown Prince.

It is you...

and Her Highness.

Father, how could you speak such words?

Your Highness,

you must be smart about this.

Siding with His Majesty...

will not help Prince Dosung in any way.

Father,

please watch your words.

And I am telling you...

that the Queen Dowager gave me her word.

If we stay put and do nothing,

Prince Dosung will be made Crown Prince.

No.

I have no intention...

of being a puppet like you...

who does the Queen Dowager's bidding.

Prince Dosung.

That is enough.

You are frustratingly naive.

His Majesty is lost at the moment...

since the Crown Prince's life is at stake.

But how can you not know that your situation...

is entirely different?

What do you mean that we are different?

You...

have me behind you.

What do you mean by that?

The Queen Dowager?

Once Prince Dosung becomes King,

we can simply eliminate her.

Gosh.

Why are you out here?

I wanted to get some fresh air.

Are you feeling better?

Yes, I am as good as healed.

Of course she is fairer than that young maiden.

What?

Are you not waiting for that Baek Gu girl?

Why would I wait for her?

How did it go for you?

Were you able to contact Sang Soo?

So this is where we meet again.

They say continuous coincidences...

are the result of them being inevitable.

Judging by how we continue to cross paths...

makes it seem...

like our fates are entwined.

Can you find it in you to acknowledge me?

One might think...

that I am bothering a lady I have just met.

Someone must be sick again.

I will get going.

Can you please step aside? People are watching.

You are the same as you were back at home.

Not even the winter wind would be this chilling.

I must say this is upsetting.

Do you not know why I crave your attention?

I know why.

I am aware of your feelings for me.

Then you are giving me the cold shoulder...

because you are not interested in me.

I am already set...

to marry another.

For that reason,

you should find another lady to court.

My lady, please take a look at Ae Sim.

Why? Is she sick?

She must have severe indigestion...

because she has tightness in her chest and a headache.

She has acute indigestion,

and I must perform acupuncture.

My lady.

Is he here?

- Where is he? - I am just as clueless.

As you can see, he must have already left.

If you do not believe me, look around all you want.

The Crown Prince had already taken off.

It seems as though we have lost him.

We were not quick enough.

I apologize.

Find out where Prince Dosung currently is.

Was it as per the Queen Dowager's orders?

What did you receive...

in exchange for doing her dirty work?

That is correct. I did receive something.

A promise that you and your mother would be kept alive.

You two do not have a single clue...

how terrifying the Queen Dowager can be.

Do you believe...

that someone like her will think you are out of reach?

Please allow me to intrude.

What brings you all the way here?

I was returning from a house call when I heard you were here.

Hence, I have stopped by.

Is that so?

Take a seat.

By the way, do you make house calls, even to a kisaeng house?

A physician travels to any place patients are.

That must be why people...

look up to you and like you.

Right. Would you like a glass?

No.

I will leave after asking you a question.

By any chance,

do you have feelings for Myung Yoon?

I am talking about my daughter.

Did he really leave?

No way. He could not have without a word.

He could not have, could he?

Is he not scared, or is he a fool?

It will be the end of him if Father finds out.

What is he thinking?

Fine. I cannot wait until he returns.

I will teach him a lesson!

Forget it.

I hope nothing happens to him.

Kill me, Your Royal Highness.

There is no need.

I heard everything from Gap Seok.

Lift up your head now.

No.

I should have served Your Royal Highness with my life.

And yet, I have harmed you.

I deserve to die.

Do not forgive me of my sin. Please kill me.

All right.

I have many questions for you.

After hearing your answers...

will I decide to kill or keep you alive.

For now,

answer my questions.

What did you say just now?

Not only did the Chief Royal Secretary die...

but the court lady of the Queen's palace...

was also poisoned to death?

Yes, Your Royal Highness.

Mother...

Is Mother safe?

Yes. However...

having received a great shock,

she is still in distress.

Since then, Court Lady Kim of the Queen Dowager's quarters...

has been in contact with the Left State Councillor.

That means the matter of the Queen's palace...

was executed...

by the Queen Dowager, targeting the Left State Councillor’s betrayal.

You should be extra careful.

Once they find out you helped me survive,

they will kill you.

I do not care what happens to me.

However, even though I am spying on the Queen Dowager's quarters,

nothing is happening.

It seems they do not know of this.

That is a relief.

I must inform you, Your Royal Highness.

The Queen Dowager met a man...

at Buyong Pavilion again.

"A man?"

To meet a man...

when Physician Heo died.

Are you sure?

Yes.

A court lady of the Queen Dowager's quarters who witnessed it told me.

There is no doubt.

The court lady of the Queen Dowager's quarters...

must be on her side.

How can we believe her?

It could be another trick or trap.

Your Royal Highness. That very court lady...

is the one who informed you...

against the Queen Dowager.

Your Royal Highness.

Simply because we serve the Queen Dowager...

does not mean we are on her side.

Many follow her orders to save...

their pathetic lives like mine...

or act like they obey her.

I, too, do not think...

everyone in the palace is the Queen Dowager's people.

However,

if that court lady's words are true,

the man I have seen is...

Your heart is beating slowly.

We must correct it first. Allow me to apply acupuncture.

Go ahead.

The deposed king only kept disloyal vassals by his side,

so I thought he was a bad judge of character.

But I suppose he was right about you, after all.

The truth is, Prince Gwangchang...

had the filthy blood of your secret lover...

Shut your mouth.

It looks like you truly wish to get killed.

You are going to kill me anyway. Am I wrong?

Apply a 1.5 acupuncture...

on the blood passageway.

Stop.

Everyone but the physician is to leave.

Your Majesty!

Please give us privacy.

Understood, Your Majesty.

If you run your mouth,

your tongue will be cut off...

and your eyes will be dug out.

Understood?

- Yes, ma'am. - Yes, ma'am.

Come closer.

Why are you doing this?

You have endured well until now, no?

- Just a bit more... - I cannot do it any longer.

I tried to endure it one way or another.

But whenever I close my eyes,

I am reminded...

of Physician Heo and the Chief Royal Secretary.

It makes it impossible for me to breathe.

Soo Ryeon.

Sang Rok.

Can we not run somewhere far away and live in hiding?

Let us do that.

All I need is you.

You told me I was all you needed, no?

Do you think I have not thought of that?

When you married the late king and became the Queen...

When you were incarcerated by the deposed king...

And when you were reinstated as the Queen Dowager...

I always thought of running away with you.

It is not too late to run away now.

Let us run away, no?

We may be able to get out of the palace.

However,

they will chase after us until the very end.

We will be found and killed.

I do not care.

Even if it is for a single day,

if I can live...

peacefully...

by your side as your wife,

I will be more than happy to die right now.

How can you talk of dying so lightly?

That is denying my 30 years of life.

Sang Rok.

All those years...

Do you know how difficult it was for me to survive the years of misery?

Of course, I will not let you die.

Even if they cut my head off and hang it on the main street,

I will be sure to keep you safe.

Now that Yoon Yi Kyum, the Left State Councillor, is on our side,

there is nothing the King can do. Am I wrong?

But can we trust the Left State Councillor?

I believe we can trust him...

until Prince Dosung is installed as the Crown Prince.

As long as he wants to see Prince Dosung on the throne,

he will not be able to betray us.

But will Prince Dosung...

obey us without rebelling?

He truly cares for the Crown Prince as if he is his own brother.

When a man falls in love,

many things change.

He can suddenly abandon things he thought he could never abandon...

and can do things he thought he would never do.

Not every man in the world...

loves as deeply as you do.

Do not worry.

I already checked, so I know.

Who is the woman Prince Dosung fancies?

How could you be so sure?

My daughter, Myung Yoon.

Myung Yoon? But she will be the Crown Princess...

Then...

Since he now fancies the woman who will soon become the Crown Princess,

he must become the Crown Prince to make her his.

Hence, he cannot say no...

when you tell him that you wish to make him the Crown Prince.

Myung Yoon can surely...

make Prince Dosung turn his back on the Crown Prince.

Simply turning his back on him will not do.

She should make him stab him in the back.

If it is not Physician Heo,

does it mean the needle canister belongs to someone else?

Gosh, I am so hungry.

You must be starving too.

Why did Physician Heo have to take his own life that day, of all times?

- Why? - Shall we go and get some food?

It is getting late, but...

You should not go to bed on an empty stomach.

You need to take your medicine too.

Gosh.

Decoct your own medicine.

Are you mad at me?

Why would I be?

So you are mad at me.

Did I keep you waiting long?

Why would I wait for you?

Then why are you still here?

Where have you been wandering around all day?

"Wandering around?"

You went out in that state. What if something else happened?

You have not learned your lesson even after suffering like crazy?

- "Suffering like crazy?" - Forget it.

I do not care whether you live or die,

so do whatever you want.

My Baek Gu.

I suppose you were very worried about me.

Yes.

You are still recovering from your stab wound,

but you disappeared without a word,

and I heard nothing from you for over an hour.

Of course, I was worried thinking you might be dead.

Be careful until your wound fully heals,

and do not forget to take your medicine on time.

I wish you health and wellness.

I am sorry.

I had to go somewhere urgently...

and did not think how worried you would be.

I apologize. Please forgive me now.

If you are truly sorry,

you must promise me first.

- Promise you what? - Promise me...

you will never go out again until I tell you that it is safe.

Sure. I promise.

But...

I have a favour to ask of you.

What is it?

Can I go out just once more?

- Why, you... - I am still recovering, you see.

Darn it.

Just once more. Please?

(Physician Heo Jin Soo's funeral)

My gosh.

Oh, dear.

Gosh, my goodness.

Oh, boy.

My gosh.

No...

Gosh.

My goodness.

Do you want to be caught and called a thief?

Get moving, will you?

- No... - My goodness.

Oh, dear.

Wait.

Do you want to be caught and called a thief?

Do not be scared.

I am right here.

It is not that.

I have never performed an autopsy,

so I could be wrong.

Like I said,

we just need to figure out if he truly...

took his own life or was murdered.

Based on the location of the livor mortis...

(Livor mortis: Postmortem stain)

He did not take his own life.

Look.

I believe someone poisoned him...

and hung him to make it look like he killed himself.

Why are you so surprised...

to hear that I must see Dosung?

You cannot meet him now.

Everyone in the palace knows...

that the two of you are very close.

So they must have someone tailing Dosung too.

Since you know that, why...

At the moment, Dosung is the only one I can trust.

Even so, it is too risky.

If he shows up with someone on his tail...

I know that Dosung...

is certainly capable of giving them the slip.

But how are you going to let him know when and where...

you wish to meet him?

I have this.

How will he know where to meet you through this?

I think we should have...

a secret spot...

that only the two of us know.

A secret spot?

(Joseon Tongbo)

You must never lose it.

In an emergency, we will use it as the token of our promise.

- The token of our promise? - Correct.

If one of us...

sends this to the other person,

it means we will meet here.

In secret. No one else can know about it.

What is with you? You are scaring me.

"Scared?" Why are you scared?

Why do we need a secret spot all of a sudden?

And what is with this halved coin?

I already explained everything. Why are you asking this again?

It is because I do not understand. Why do we need this?

Do you not know...

that people are dying in the palace, accused of treason?

Father could be accused of treason too,

so we should prepare ourselves for the worst-case scenario.

Gun.

Are you hurt?

How come you did not send a messenger sooner?

Did you want to see your brother losing his mind?

We should go inside.

In any case,

I should have found you first.

Forgive me, Gun.

Do you truly mean it?

Sorry?

I am asking you if you are still on my side.

Gun.

I heard the Left State Councillor...

already joined hands with the Queen Dowager.

What is it that you want to hear?

Because my grandfather betrayed you,

you wish to know if I am now on the Queen Dowager's side too?

Are you?

Why did you want to see me if you could not trust me at all?

To see if I would hand you over to them?

Did you want to check and find out for yourself?

It narrowly missed the heart.

This is...

the outcome of trusting those...

whom I thought I would never doubt even in my dreams.

And is that why...

you are suspecting your only brother too?

I could die in your stead,

but I did not want to die because of you.

Do you understand?

No, I do not.

No, I will never understand!

I do not care even if I have to die because of you.

I will follow you to the afterlife if you tell me to,

so why would you...

I am sorry, Dosung.

I hear the construction of the temporary palace...

near the fortress in Mount Bukhan is now complete.

(Haenggung: A palace built for temporary accommodation)

I will go there myself and check.

Consider yourselves informed.

- Yes, Your Majesty. - Yes, Your Majesty.

He suddenly wishes to visit the fortress in Mount Bukhan?

He must be on pins and needles these days.

I am sure he is not going there just for formalities' sake.

He is not going there to visit the temporary palace.

He wants to visit the soldiers in the Military Training Corps.

Then what should we do now?

We certainly do not have the power...

to fight the King's army.

We cannot beat him through military means. We must find another way.

But he is doggedly determined.

Is there a way to take him down?

I believe it is time...

to use the last resort.

You mean Royal Physician Choi Sang Rok...

was the Queen Dowager's secret lover?

At first, I could not believe it either.

But I kept racking my brain,

and it was the only plausible answer I could think of.

Is there evidence?

The acupuncture needle canister.

It was found in Buyong Pavilion...

where she had her secret rendezvous.

Do you happen to know anything about this acupuncture needle canister?

I gave this out to the physicians at the Royal Infirmary.

Where did you get it?

Yes, I know about it too.

I visited Choi Sang Rok to ask him if he knew who owned the canister...

as per Father's order.

He probably told you it was Physician Heo's.

And when you visited Physician Heo to ask him about it...

He was already dead.

Correct.

Hence, I could not investigate further.

To conceal who he really was,

Choi Sang Rok cut off his tail.

Gun, Physician Heo took his own life.

No, he did not take his own life. He was murdered.

Are you sure about that?

I do not know about other things,

but I am certain he did not kill himself. He was murdered.

However, the fact that he was murdered...

cannot serve as evidence that Choi Sang Rok is her secret lover.

The two of them were the only physicians...

who were allowed to enter the Queen Dowager's chambers.

The day Choi told you that the canister belonged to Heo,

Heo...

was murdered.

Could it really be a coincidence?

No. If Choi Sang Rok is not her secret lover,

he must know who her lover is.

It is one of the two.

Gun. However,

all we have is circumstantial evidence.

We do not have concrete proof.

If Choi Sang Rok keeps denying it, then what are we going to do?

We must find a way to make him confess the truth.

Can we find a way to do that?

Do you trust me?

Yes. Unlike you, I am not untrusting.

Then how about we work together on this, like the old days?

Sure. Just tell me what to do.

How long do you think it would take...

for you to return to the palace, then go to the Public Dispensary?

About half a day, I would say.

Then you should get moving.

I heard you asked for me, Your Majesty.

Yes.

I stayed up thinking all night,

but you were the only one I could think of.

I suppose I have come to rely on you a lot...

without even realizing it.

I am much obliged, Your Highness.

No one in the Internal Court is kinder...

and more affectionate than you.

That is why...

I mustered up the courage...

to ask you for one last time to join hands with me.

Queen, as of this moment, I will talk to you...

not as the Queen Dowager,

but as another woman just like you,

so I ask you to please...

consider me one of your fellow women and hear me out.

Yes, Your Majesty.

The King must have already told you...

about my secret lover.

Pardon me?

Well, that is...

Yes, it is true.

There is a man whom I have fancied for a long time.

We have fancied each other since a young age.

In fact, we were engaged.

However, I suppose we were not destined to be husband and wife.

I was chosen to marry the late king.

(Seondaewang: Late King)

Thus began my life in the palace.

Many years later,

we met again.

Ten, twenty years...

Thirty years.

My love for him...

was what enabled me...

to endure everything and hold out all those years.

I shed so many tears.

I cried and cried.

I tried to take my own life...

several times.

You see, I do not care what happens to me.

If everyone wants to hurl stones at me,

tell them to go ahead for I am prepared to be stoned to death.

However, I cannot see him suffer.

He did nothing wrong.

All he did was put his life on the line...

to protect the woman he loved.

He did nothing wrong at all.

Your Majesty, please calm down.

Queen, I do not need power, money, or anything for that matter.

I only wish to be with him. That is all I want.

I cherish him more than my own life,

so I want and am ready to give up my all...

to protect him. That is all.

Your Highness.

Queen.

Help me, please.

If you earnestly plead with the King, he will listen to you.

The last thing you want is another bloodbath in the palace...

for you do not want to see the King or Prince Dosung get hurt.

I surely know that.

If I could get the King's permission,

the Crown Prince will return to the palace,

and I...

I will leave.

I will leave the palace. He and I...

will leave quietly.

We will spend the rest of our lives...

in a place where no one can find us.

We will live in hiding as if we are dead.

Please persuade the King...

to let me leave the palace.

Because of my father,

(Gachin: Father)

His Majesty has been distancing himself from me,

so I cannot help you even if I want to.

Then...

we should do this.

Your Majesty.

Her Highness the Queen is here.

She may enter.

What brings you here?

I heard you had not been eating.

So I...

prepared a few dishes that could bring back your appetite.

Queen.

When you lie,

it shows on your face. Did you know that?

Pardon me?

How could I dare to lie to Your Majesty?

If you are here to talk to me about something,

go ahead and say it.

No, Your Majesty.

I really am here for I prepared a meal for you.

Fine.

They may bring in the food.

Giddyap!

Your Majesty, please try the food.

Have some more.

You must eat well to recover quickly. All right?

Here, open wide.

Here.

I heard the royal physician would be here today.

The royal physician?

Oh, go to the back.

My lady.

Lord Choi wants you to visit a patient.

Where is the patient?

I will take you there.

The patient needs urgent care, so we should hurry.

Why are you not asking me anything?

Will you answer truthfully?

Are you not here because you already know everything?

Call me foolish.

I suppose I wanted to hear you deny it even until this moment.

The man the Queen Dowager met at Buyong Pavilion.

Was it you?

Yes, it was I.

I am the Queen Dowager's... No.

I am the man who has been in love with the woman...

named Min Soo Ryeon for many years.

I am her lover.

Giddyap!

Giddyap!

How could you be so confident?

You had a secret affair with the Queen Dowager...

and took many lives just to conceal it.

Do you think your so-called "love" can be forgiven?

I can and will do worse things to protect the woman...

with whom I have been in love for 30 years.

Shut your mouth!

The moment you decided to have an affair with her,

you disrespected His Majesty...

and insulted the Royal House.

How dare you speak of love?

She was my fiancée.

Even way before she fell prey to the old king,

she was mine.

I suppose you want to get the Queen Dowager killed too.

Fine.

I will make sure even your souls cannot meet again.

I will behead you two and cut you to pieces.

Then I will scatter your remains all over the mountains...

so you would get eaten by wild animals!

(Public Dispensary)

Here comes Lee Gun, the traitor. Tie him up!

(Missing Crown Prince)

They took His Royal Highness.

You know that they are after me.

It is pointless.

Father has collapsed.

- Bow to the Queen Dowager. - Bow to the Queen Dowager.

I hereby appoint Choi Sang Rok as Inspector General.

Cancel it at once!

Before I slay all of you.

Go ahead and slay me.

Please die.

I do not know how I would pay for being such an unfilial son...

once I die.

Are you really going to die like this?
