A person of Gaeyang must be established in order for Gyerim's Heaven to brightly shine once again!!

Mishil...

Is she really...?

It's Deokman!

Is she really...?

Yes, the one who has appeared to brighten Gyerim's Heaven once again is...

It's Deokman! Our daughter!

Episode 29

This person is...

the one that was prophesied by our founding father!

The one who will open the Heavens...!

She is one of the Gaeyang!

Wasn't I right?

She is one of the Gaeyang.

Yes.

You're right!

Our Deokman... is one of the Gaeyang!

She deceived me! Me...!

This world renowned Mishil!

She has calculated the solar eclipse! The solar eclipse!

Dear!

Mother!

Nunim!

Your Majesty!

Please tell us!

Was there twin girls?!!

That year when the Gaeyang star split into two...

Is it true that twin girls were born...!!!

Is she Princess Cheonmyeong's twin...!!!

Please.. tell.. us...!!!

We would like to know...! Your Majesty!

Please tell us...!!!

Your Majesty!!!

I would also like to know!

Please tell us!

Your Majesty! Please tell us! Your Majesty!!!

The day when the seven stars of the Big Dipper became eight,

That very day when the Gaeyang star split into two,

I gave birth to Princess Cheonmyeong.

And soon after...

I went into labor once again,

and I gave birth to a second princess.

At that time, the entire prophecy of our founding father has not been passed down,

and the only phrase that was left behind was about,

"if there is a twin birth, then all Songgeol (sacred bone) male seeds will dry up"

I was afraid of that.

I was also afraid that I was going to lose my child.

And I was afraid that I may be deposed as a queen.

I was also afraid that I would bring harm to His Majesty.

Therefore...

The other keeper of the Gaeyang star,

I had entrusted my second daughter,

to a palace maid and had them escaped.

All of it was due to my lack of virtue and it's my mistake,

for the sin of not knowing the entire prophecy.

And I, as a mother behaving so immorally.

In the end, I lost all my princes,

and ultimately...

I ended up losing Princess Cheonmyeong.

Our queen must have suffered so much...

You're right.

What a pity!

Mother?! Are you just going to allow this to happen?

Father! Please do something!

What can we do?

The royal family came together to come up with such a scheme,

and delivered a perfect showpiece on cue.

Uncle?!

If we don't do anything, then we will surely be defeated!

It seems like we have been defeated.

What!

I am the queen who should be the mother to all of our people,

so I should be punished for my lies, lack of virtue, and being immoral,

and restore everything to its rightful place.

Therefore...

As our founding father has prophesied, please allow our Gaeyang,

our Deokman to reclaim her rightful place...

in order to open a new Heaven for Shilla...!

Yes, you must!

I... like her.

Forgive us!

To the people of our nation, please forgive me and the queen for our lack of virtue.

All of these are my sins...

So, please forgive us.

Especially...

To my daughter, Deokman.

Please forgive us.

I will now proclaim before all of our people and to our guardian spirits from Heaven and Earth!

This is my daughter!

The Princess of our Heavenly Kingdom!

This is Princess Deokman!

Hurrah! Ten thousand hurrahs!

Hurrah! Princess Deokman, hooray!

Princess Deokman, hooray!

Princess Deokman, hooray!

Princess Deokman, hooray!

How could such a thing have happened like this?

I'm not sure myself.

When Princess Cheonmyeong passed away, I had an inkling that things weren't going that well.

And now look at where we are.

Then... what should we do about Sohwa?

For now, go to where she is.

Once things settle down, I will send you a message as soon as I receive an order from Lady Mishil.

OK then.

But, doesn't this mean that Sohwa will now become Princess Deokman's nanny?

How is she?

She was injured while she was already feeble, so it won't be that easy.

But I will do my best.

We'll leave it in your hands. She is someone that shouldn't die just yet.

Hey, this is no joke! This is really no joke at all!

From the time when she decided to appear, to the radiance on her face that illuminated...

But really, how could she even deceive me?!

You wretch!! She is a princess!

Are you going to continue with this behavior?

I got it, I got it.

I will show her my respect the next time I see her.

I now respect her! Completely respect her!

But really, she didn't even tell you the truth?

No, she didn't. You guys didn't know either?

She was foiled by Mishil once.

Thus, she deceived all of us in order to deceive Lady Mishil.

It was a brilliant strategy.

Although, Lady Mishil was able to see right through me and Bidam,

but she wasn't able to see through the princess.

That's what I'm saying. She was absolutely splendid.

My beautiful daughter.

This beautiful princess...

And even more beautiful as a woman.

If only you were brought up along with Cheonmyeong,

how great would have been if the both of you were able to share that sisterly bond.

Since we've met...

We haven't even had the opportunity to act as sisters.

Unlike other sisters, we have yet to fight over clothes.

As we are throwing rings around here... and there...

And saying either you want it or I want it,

we haven't even got the chance to argue about that.

Including all that belongs to Cheonmyeong,

I'm going to give you all that is entitled to a princess.

Your Highness.

I did not return to the palace in order to live happily as a woman,

nor did I return to the palace to live a life as a princess.

I'd abandon that thought before coming here.

I also gave Unni, Princess Cheonmyeong, my sworn oath.

Your Majesty? Princess has arrived.

Have her enter.

Have a seat.

I couldn't even come up with any words that I can say to you,

if we were to meet.

I am sorry.

Do you blame me?

Yes, Your Majesty.

Of course you would.

And you should.

But, please try to understand.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Now, I do understand.

Because you are the king,

and having that position of a ruler requires you to act as such.

In order to protect that throne,

it would become necessary to abandon one's child.

So I do understand.

However...

What I blame you is for the fact that if you had,

to take a path which included abandoning me in order to protect that throne,

then you should have taken measures to strengthen your power of authority.

Hence, you shouldn't have lost me again when I had returned,

and you shouldn't have had to lose my sister, Princess Cheonmyeong.

I'm sure you're harboring much blame for me.

How could you not be...?

I'd even gave an order to have you killed.

Your Majesty.

I have only one reason for my return when I had already intended to leave.

And that's for Unni, Princess Cheonmyeong...

I'm going to confront Mishil in her place.

After declaring that a solar eclipse will not occur, and now that it has....

Have you seen how the people have started to talk about her as the new Heaven's royal maiden?

Yes, and for that very reason...

Mother, let's mobilize our troops right now!

So who cares about being Heaven's royal maiden?

We have both the military and the nobles on our side!

Seju, he's right. I will gather the private soldiers from the nobles that are on our side.

What if the nobles we had initially thought were on our side started to sing a new tune.

Then, there would be an internal conflict, and we would have no way knowing the outcome.

That couldn't possibly happen.

Right now, we have no way of knowing.

If any troops were to be mobilized right now, then it will be seen as a coup.

It's already too late for that.

We had the throne within our reach!

I, too...

...am disheartened.

However, what important now is to ensure that no one person switches over to His Majesty's side.

Therefore, Daedeung Sang, please expedite the coronation for Princess Deokman.

Pardon?

Give them the impression that all nobles on our side are united under your authority,

and are being benevolent in overlooking the sins of the royal family.

Furthermore, we must obtain what we can get out of the royal family.

As for the levies that are collected from the people to benefit the royal court,

and the nobles will be readjusted from 60/40 ratio to 50/50.

From what we gain from that proposal, we will once again reunite the nobles,

to ensure that not one person from our side leaves us.

Do you understand?

Yes.

And also, I want you, Lord Seolwon,

to meet with other officials from the Department of Defense,

and check once again on where they stand.

Yes, I've already arranged all the meetings.

Bojong, I want you to meet with all the Hwarangs individually,

and if any Hwarangs are having difficulties in controlling their Nangdos,

then give them whatever support they may need without any reserve.

Yes, I understand.

So all these are reports petitioning for Deokman to be acknowledged as a princess?

Yes, Sire. The tide has turned in our favor.

But, I'm certain that Lady Mishil's faction will fiercely oppose us.

Due to my lack of virtue, after all this time, I've finally found my daughter.

So if the Hwabaek council refuses to acknowledge her,

then I will push it through by putting my royal seal on the line.

Your Majesty, Daedeung Sang has arrived.

Have him enter.

Your Majesty, we have come to discuss the issue regarding Princess Deokman.

I, Daedeung Sang, may be impudent in saying this,

but if you had declared the birth of twin girls right when it happened,

then all the Daedeungs and the nobles would have accepted that fact,

and would have tried to come up with a solution.

But, you and the queen tried to hide that fact,

and allowed for Princess Deokman, who is of Songgeol birth to live outside the palace.

Yes, and the nobles who did not know about that fact was utterly thrown into confusion.

Thus, we even had to experience the cruel reality of losing Princess Cheonmyeong.

His Majesty and the Queen has already acknowledged this fact in front of the commoners,

so do not pass such harsh judgment.

Thus... the Daedeungs and the nobles are very disappointed.

And so...!

Are you implying right now that you're refusing to authorize the coronation for Princess Deokman?!

That is not the case, Your Majesty.

For I've already given an order for the Daedeungs,

(*Hour of the horse- 11a.m.~1p.m)

and the nobles to hold the coronation set for the following day during the hour of the horse*.

Then, do you have another matter you would like to discuss?

In order to quickly cover-up the mistakes of the queen, I did issue an order under my authority.

But it's also true that they are still very disappointed.

Therefore, if you were to give a decree lowering the taxes of the nobles during the coronation,

then the loyalties coming from nobles to you and the princess will no doubt increase ten fold.

Yes, Sire.

When things like these occur, isn't it customary to reduce sentencing and even grant amnesty?

So why not do so.

We decided to have the coronation for the princess tomorrow.

Is that so?

Since we're currently in the midst of national mourning for Princess Cheonmyeong,

they've decided to hold a simple coronation.

I see.

Seju.

My apologies.

Why are you even saying that?

Why do you have that facial expression?

I am... Mishil.

I will not be wavered by trivial matters such as this.

We've decided to hold the coronation for the princess tomorrow.

We should have prepared for many more days, so that we can give you a grand coronation, but...

No, it's fine.

It's better for everyone to have it at the earliest convenience.

You'll need to start your preparation early in the morning, so go to bed early today.

Yes, I will.

Unni?

This is the beginning.

Help me. I'm still afraid.

It's time to you to make your appearance.

Yes.

Why are you trembling like this?

You have defeated the great Mishil in order to stand here as a princess.

So, please do not tremble.

Seju?

Today will be first day serving the princess.

Well, do I look alright?

But of course.

Congratulations on becoming a princess.

I owe it all to you, Seju.

Who... me?

As I was conceptualizing this plan,

I thought about your words each and everyday, one by one.

Eventually, your words became my flesh and blood as I was proceeding with this plan,

which lead me to become Heaven's Royal Maiden.

And because of that, I even became a princess.

What's wrong?

Have you yet to overcome your fear?

You're being insolent!

How dare you lay your hands on a body of a Songgeol (sacred bone)?!

Let's go.

Yes, Princess!

She is the Princess of this Heavenly Kingdom!

She is Princess Deokman!

Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!

Pay your respects to the princess.

I swear my loyalty to you, Princess, the master of all Hwarangs!

I, Princess Deokman,

as the master of all Hwarangs,

give you my promise to elevate the honor and the spirit of all Hwarangs.

From now on, all Hwarangs will be on equal footing,

and their skills will only be acknowledged through the Beejae competition.

Henceforth,

stand strong on the principles of a Hwarang,

in order to further elevate the spirit of all Hwarangs.

Yes, Princess!

Archeon Rang.

Yes, Princess!

Come forward.

I will now designate Hwarang Archeon as my personal royal guard,

and all Nangdos from Bicheon Jido will be assigned as my royal guards.

I, Hwarang Archeon of Bicheon Jido, will put forth my utmost devotion.

Seju!

Go and bring Wolcheon to me right now!

Wolcheon?

Anything that has to do with Wolcheon will directly involve Yushin and Archeon,

so follow them immediately and bring back Wolcheon!

Yes, Seju. I understand.

But first, treat your hand.

If you aren't able to bring back Wolcheon,

then kill him.

I have no use for Wolcheon if he is on Deokman's side!

Wow. Is this where the Hwarangs hang out?

Wow, this is so cool.

It's for the Ten Hwarangs.

Wow, that color on your dress is really pretty.

You wretch, how dare you look directly at the princess?!

I... was completely fooled!

You're really amazing.

Again, you wretch!

Archeon Rang.

In order to deceive Mishil, it really couldn't be helped.

Well, I'll now acknowledge that as well.

I lost to Mishil and to you...

I was deceived by you as well, Princess.

Anyhow, the both of you are amazing!

I believe that you would do well, and that's why I'm thankful and I'm sorry.

Sorry?

But, how did you convince Master Wolcheon?

I'm curious as well.

I've heard that he wants nothing and fears nothing.

So, how on earth did you do it?

Yes, how did you do it?

Yes, now we must begin that work.

First, I want the both of you to escort and bring back Master Wolcheon.

He is probably finished with the work I had requested him to do.

Yes, Princess.

Yes, Princess.

Please send a message to Bokyahwei immediately.

Understood.

I will gather the Nangdos now.

Yes.

By the way...

The one who is about to be a ruler shouldn't say words like "Sorry" and "Thank you" so easily.

They aren't here yet?

Yushin Rang!

Let's go.

Yes, Sir.

Let's go.

What do you mean by that?

That must never happen!

Isn't that the Heavenly authority you took away from Mishil herself?

And you intend on giving that up?

For the sake of our Heavenly Kingdom, it certainly has to be done.

For the sake of our Heavenly Kingdom?

What's really on your mind?

Just how? How could she think like that?

It seems that she is pretty set on the idea.

Doesn't she realize that it will cause a great bedlam?

Perhaps the princess lived as a commoner so long,

that she may not be aware of the way in which the royal family works,

and that's what concerns me.

Yushin Rang?

I need to urinate...

- Hurry up. - Yes, Sir.

I thought I was going to die just holding it in this long.

That Yushin Rang, whether it's training or duty, he never gives us time to rest.

What a relief, so refreshing.

It must be refreshing, huh?

- Tie them up. - Yes, Sir.

Yushin Rang! Yushin Rang! Over here!

Jukbang!

Godo!

What happened?!

Untie them!

Master Wolcheon is in danger!

Are you Master Wolcheon?

Come with us!

Halt!

Attack!

Let's go.

Stay where you are!

Bojong Rang.

Drop your sword.

You don't care if I take this man's life?

Put away your sword!

Kill me!

Wolcheon will die as well.

This is Seju's order.

This is the princess' order!

If you don't stand back, I'll consider this as an act of hostility towards the princess.

Do you guys intend on disobeying the princess' order?!

You seem to be cocksure because of what happened in the past at Iseo district.

Shall we see who will come out on top this time?

Halt!

What's with this behavior!

Right now, I'm carrying out the princess' order.

We can always find out who will come out on top.

To all of you...

I don't know where you're intending to hide Wolcheon,

but I will surely find him and kill him.

I will definitely do that. No matter what!

For me utilizing science with this solar eclipse will be my last time.

If things go as planned, then I will carry out that plan.

Because I believe in your plans, I've calculated the day of the solar eclipse.

What's your reasoning for gathering all the court officials?

The reason why I've called all of you is to reveal my first order of business as a princess.

From today, I, Princess Doekman, as the Heaven's Royal Maiden of this Heavenly Kingdom,

will depose the Head Priestess, and all matters related to astronomy...

will be disclosed to all the people of our nation.

Have the Master enter.

Yes.

Have the Master enter!

Yes.

On this land of Seorabeol,

the point of reference for observing all astrological phenomenon,

and an almanac that may be viewed by all people...

And that almanac... will be built as an observing tower.

Its name will be called Chumsong Dae (observatory).

The one in charge of building Chumsong Dae, will be managed by Master Wolcheon.

The twelve slabs at the foundation-base signifies

the twelve months in a year.

The main body has 365 bricks.

The four-sided slab-stone on top indicates 1/4 of a day.

And all of these combined represents the days in a year.

From the foundation-base to the window in the middle equates to 12 months.

And again,

from the window in the middle to the four-sided slab-stone on top also equates to 12 months.

The reason for building 24 rows is to symbolize the 24 seasonal changes.

If you combine the main body and the top layers, it will add up to 28 total.

The reason for 28 is to signify the 28 constellations.

So with this, anyone from Shilla will be able to understand the movements of Heaven,

and from now on,

those at the shrine that had complete control of astronomy, and including anyone else,

will no longer be able to foment fear into our people by exploiting their ignorance,

in order to reap personal benefits.

So, are you saying that you're going to relinquish your Heavenly authority?

I intend on doing so.

Princess, the world is divided vertically, and it's also divided horizontally.

What do you mean by that?

If you divide the world vertically, then it's like this...

The Baekje people, the Gorgoryeo people, and the Shilla people,

and within Shilla, there are those that follow you, and those that follow me.

But if you divide the world horizontally, then there are only two...

Ones that rule, and ones that are ruled.

So if you divide the world horizontally, then you and I are on the same side.

We are the ones that rule.

If you took away my Heavenly authority, then you should keep it.

If that's the case, it may also be taken away from me at any time.

Are you throwing it away because you're afraid of that?

I'm not throwing it away, but rather, I'm returning it back to the people.

That is throwing it away.

How do you intend on ruling if you throw that away?

Is she right? Am I just throwing it away?

Then, I won't be able to rule?

Yes, Princess.

We are engaged in a political war

Even in a political war, there are rules.

This is going against the rules.

What will you use to establish the imperial authority as well as your authority in the royal court?

What will I use to establish my authority?

What will you use to rule the people?

What will I use to rule?

Please tell me.

I asked, what will you use?!

With the truth.

Truth?

Which truth are you referring to?

The people are proclaiming you as the new Heaven's Royal Maiden.

What truth will you tell them?

That, "I don't know anything"

"I don't have any mystical powers"

That sort of truth?

Science will reveal the logic behind the incomprehensible,

which in turn reveals the truth.

And?

Seju, you had in possession of a science that could reveal the truth,

but instead, you used it create a fantasy in which you have the power to move the Heavens.

It's because the people want a fantasy?

They want a deity that can induce a rainfall during a drought,

and protect them from calamitous omens.

You must create that kind of fantasy in order to be able to rule.

No. Hope is what the people desire.

Hope for the people?

Princess?

Do you know how scary those so-called "people" and the so-called "public" can be?

Scary?

Mishil has something she fears?

The hopes and desires of the public,

You have no idea how scary those things can be, do you?

No. But I have no fear.

At the very least...

All they want is to have a hope to eat and live a little better, not some fantasy.

The people do not care to know why it rains,

nor do they care to know how a solar eclipse occurs.

They're just content to have someone who can induce a rainfall,

and someone who can stop a solar eclipse.

They are an ignorant and a foolish bunch.

That's because... they don't know.

Yes, that's right. They don't know. Nor do they want to know!

They don't even know what they want themselves.

If the people are able to comprehend the almanac,

then they will be able understand on their own accord what season it is,

and when to plant the seeds.

And if that occurs, they may not know why it rains,

but they will know how to use that rainfall to cultivate farmlands.

In that manner, they will yearn to move ahead one step at a time, and that's the people.

To know, to have wisdom, leads to suffering.

For them having that knowledge is exhausting and troublesome.

Through hope, they will embrace their tiredness and their suffering.

The people with hopes and dreams will make this Heavenly Kingdom wealthy and powerful.

Together with those who share in my dreams,

I will erect that kind of a Shilla.

Perhaps... what this child really wants is...

This concept, what I just said right now, am I right?

Princess, this Mishil speaks of people's fantasy.

And you speak of people's hope.

However...

That hope and that dream,

in actuality is the most cruelest fantasy.

You are much more insidious than this Mishil!

Perhaps... that may be the case.

However...

As Deokman builds the observatory and forges ahead, she will nail her own coffin on her own accord.

Heaven's Royal Maiden, please allow me to conceive a son.

If the princess uses that to delude the people,

then what's the difference between the Princess and Seju Mishil?

Just like a street thug, do you think I would resort to kidnapping?!

Did Lady Mishil threaten you?

Sohwa...?

It's an order to kill.

You're right. It's Munno's swordsmanship. So, who is he?

If only Munno didn't take her away, then I could have raised her myself.

To my master, Princess Deokman, I, Woomyeong Bidam, give you my greeting.

Deokman!

I plan on seeing how she'll go about all this.

Sohwa...!

Why wasn't I... born as a Songgeol (sacred bone)?

If only I had realized my dream of becoming the queen with ease,

then I could have conceptualized my next dream!
