Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:06,382 --> 00:00:10,827
(This drama was remade based on historical facts.)
2
00:00:11,123 --> 00:00:12,522
You have become the Crown Prince,
3
00:00:12,523 --> 00:00:14,522
but your position in the palace is still unstable.
4
00:00:14,523 --> 00:00:16,061
The current Crown Prince...
5
00:00:16,062 --> 00:00:17,262
does not deserve to be the next king!
6
00:00:17,263 --> 00:00:19,661
I knew that Noron wouldn't come, but even the officials of Soron?
7
00:00:19,662 --> 00:00:21,132
Everyone refused to attend the Crown Prince's...
8
00:00:21,133 --> 00:00:22,132
first morning lecture?
9
00:00:22,133 --> 00:00:23,332
It is not because you are a peasant's son.
10
00:00:23,333 --> 00:00:25,071
Does that mean you will acknowledge me...
11
00:00:25,072 --> 00:00:26,972
if I prove myself as king material?
12
00:00:26,973 --> 00:00:28,641
This is a murder scene.
13
00:00:28,642 --> 00:00:30,972
Arrest the Crown Prince immediately.
14
00:00:30,973 --> 00:00:32,271
Is this politics too?
15
00:00:32,272 --> 00:00:34,232
This isn't politics, but logical sense.
16
00:00:34,312 --> 00:00:35,682
Joseon doesn't belong to a king anymore.
17
00:00:35,683 --> 00:00:37,182
It's the nobles that rule.
18
00:00:37,183 --> 00:00:39,182
Do you mean we should abandon the Crown Prince?
19
00:00:39,183 --> 00:00:41,980
The whole point of politics is to deal with commotion and disputes.
20
00:00:42,083 --> 00:00:44,345
If His Majesty can't dethrone the Crown Prince,
21
00:00:44,653 --> 00:00:45,722
we can make him do it.
22
00:00:45,723 --> 00:00:47,561
As you can see, I'm still the Crown Prince.
23
00:00:47,562 --> 00:00:49,962
Show them you're still alive and well as Crown Prince.
24
00:00:49,963 --> 00:00:52,262
I swear to make the owner of farming lands...
25
00:00:52,263 --> 00:00:53,531
to pay the tax for it.
26
00:00:53,532 --> 00:00:55,332
That man, Park Mun Su, won't do. You should kick him out immediately.
27
00:00:55,333 --> 00:00:57,061
The cause of Jeong Seok's death.
28
00:00:57,062 --> 00:00:59,502
I will reveal that, Executive Inspector.
29
00:00:59,503 --> 00:01:01,972
It seems like Inspector Park is currently digging into...
30
00:01:01,973 --> 00:01:03,542
the Section Chief of Personnel's illegal acts.
31
00:01:03,543 --> 00:01:06,111
If he proves that the Section Chief is guilty, what happens?
32
00:01:06,112 --> 00:01:07,581
The Section Chief of Personnel will be impeached...
33
00:01:07,582 --> 00:01:10,652
and his position that's in charge of the three agencies can be replaced.
34
00:01:10,653 --> 00:01:13,137
Help Prince Mil Poong become king.
35
00:01:13,153 --> 00:01:15,122
How could you become this cruel?
36
00:01:15,123 --> 00:01:17,652
I want you to fetch me an aristocrat who's very talented at writing.
37
00:01:17,653 --> 00:01:20,178
It's finally time for me to step up.
38
00:01:23,692 --> 00:01:24,843
Your appeal...
39
00:01:25,663 --> 00:01:27,279
is a work of art.
40
00:01:31,873 --> 00:01:33,044
Your writing skills...
41
00:01:35,642 --> 00:01:36,815
are amazing.
42
00:01:44,183 --> 00:01:46,678
Prince Mil Poong is on the move. What should we do?
43
00:01:55,062 --> 00:01:56,962
How could anyone write something like this?
44
00:01:56,963 --> 00:01:58,031
(Jo Tae Koo, Chief Justice, Soron)
45
00:01:58,032 --> 00:01:59,850
Does this man wish to get himself killed?
46
00:02:00,192 --> 00:02:01,212
Chief Justice.
47
00:02:01,862 --> 00:02:05,307
I need to read this letter of appeal to the King.
48
00:02:08,703 --> 00:02:10,863
I knew something like this would happen one day.
49
00:02:11,273 --> 00:02:13,464
As the Crown Prince started to gain more power,
50
00:02:14,282 --> 00:02:16,000
I've always feared this would happen.
51
00:02:21,782 --> 00:02:24,347
It seems like you think you're different from others.
52
00:02:24,623 --> 00:02:26,713
"I should at least try to be as good as the Norons."
53
00:02:26,893 --> 00:02:29,346
"That's more than enough to keep this country safe."
54
00:02:29,822 --> 00:02:30,904
You will soon...
55
00:02:32,692 --> 00:02:34,319
be able to realize that.
56
00:02:36,162 --> 00:02:37,244
No, Min Jin Heon.
57
00:02:37,933 --> 00:02:40,124
I will never become like you.
58
00:02:41,673 --> 00:02:42,854
Your Highness.
59
00:02:44,442 --> 00:02:45,786
Here you are.
60
00:02:46,812 --> 00:02:47,995
Prince Mil Poong.
61
00:02:48,643 --> 00:02:51,077
(Prince Mil Poong, Yi Tan)
62
00:02:51,282 --> 00:02:53,482
I came to see you, Your Highness.
63
00:02:53,483 --> 00:02:56,008
But I looked for a while since you weren't at the Crown Prince Palace.
64
00:02:56,923 --> 00:02:58,640
You're at a pavilion in the breeze.
65
00:02:59,752 --> 00:03:03,056
Aren't you a bit too leisurely?
66
00:03:03,562 --> 00:03:05,856
I don't have the time to listen...
67
00:03:06,532 --> 00:03:07,613
to your babbling.
68
00:03:11,002 --> 00:03:13,093
The position you and I are in...
69
00:03:14,743 --> 00:03:16,085
is too different for that.
70
00:03:17,373 --> 00:03:18,383
But...
71
00:03:21,143 --> 00:03:23,668
it'll be better if you listen to...
72
00:03:26,213 --> 00:03:27,597
what I have to say.
73
00:03:31,393 --> 00:03:32,908
People...
74
00:03:34,592 --> 00:03:36,512
are all the same, Your Highness.
75
00:03:40,132 --> 00:03:41,576
How can...
76
00:03:41,863 --> 00:03:44,599
How can there be such a disastrous petition?
77
00:03:44,833 --> 00:03:47,732
That's why I told you...
78
00:03:48,273 --> 00:03:51,511
not to protect the Crown Prince.
79
00:03:51,512 --> 00:03:55,451
It will eventually become a dagger and turn towards to you.
80
00:03:56,442 --> 00:03:59,685
If people feel threatened for something they own,
81
00:04:00,683 --> 00:04:03,450
they'll stop at nothing to protect what is theirs.
82
00:04:06,252 --> 00:04:08,787
If Prince Mil Poong fails to become king,
83
00:04:10,993 --> 00:04:12,377
I will also die.
84
00:04:14,662 --> 00:04:16,147
So please...
85
00:04:16,863 --> 00:04:18,602
Captain, what should we do with Prince Mil Poong?
86
00:04:18,603 --> 00:04:19,915
Don't do anything.
87
00:04:21,303 --> 00:04:22,384
What?
88
00:04:23,343 --> 00:04:25,434
You become blind.
89
00:04:25,512 --> 00:04:26,522
Don't do anything.
90
00:04:27,683 --> 00:04:29,501
Once you're filled with greed.
91
00:04:30,483 --> 00:04:32,069
Just like how I did in the past.
92
00:04:34,353 --> 00:04:36,052
It's the same for everyone.
93
00:04:36,053 --> 00:04:38,451
What are you babbling about, Prince Mil Poong?
94
00:04:38,452 --> 00:04:39,533
A backfire.
95
00:04:41,363 --> 00:04:44,625
A backfire that will blow you off your course...
96
00:04:44,832 --> 00:04:46,954
will sweep over the palace soon.
97
00:04:48,062 --> 00:04:49,113
What?
98
00:04:56,142 --> 00:04:58,293
It's not some soft spring breeze.
99
00:05:01,142 --> 00:05:02,193
That wind...
100
00:05:04,913 --> 00:05:07,711
will be full of a bloody stench,
101
00:05:09,582 --> 00:05:11,410
Your Highness.
102
00:05:24,603 --> 00:05:27,157
What are you doing?
103
00:05:28,873 --> 00:05:31,511
We were preparing lessons for the Crown Prince.
104
00:05:31,512 --> 00:05:35,421
The Crown Prince? The Crown Prince Highness?
105
00:05:36,243 --> 00:05:38,637
Do you know what is going on?
106
00:05:39,712 --> 00:05:42,681
Who do you serve?
107
00:05:42,853 --> 00:05:45,417
Do you serve His Majesty or the Crown Prince?
108
00:05:51,562 --> 00:05:53,481
Prince School has been canceled?
109
00:05:53,993 --> 00:05:55,131
So suddenly?
110
00:05:55,132 --> 00:05:58,667
Vice Minister only told me that he's sincerely sorry.
111
00:06:09,783 --> 00:06:10,924
(Book of Changes)
112
00:06:15,853 --> 00:06:17,368
A backfire that will blow you off your course...
113
00:06:17,723 --> 00:06:19,671
will sweep over the palace soon.
114
00:06:37,543 --> 00:06:41,583
(Episode 13: Temptation)
115
00:06:42,642 --> 00:06:44,581
He's not home today too?
116
00:06:44,582 --> 00:06:46,431
How many times must I tell you?
117
00:06:47,983 --> 00:06:50,782
Then please give this to Section Chief Yoon when he comes.
118
00:06:50,783 --> 00:06:52,922
It's a rare ginseng. It was difficult to get this.
119
00:06:52,923 --> 00:06:54,722
No, I can't take that.
120
00:06:54,723 --> 00:06:56,309
He gave orders to receive nothing.
121
00:06:57,062 --> 00:07:00,527
What? Hey!
122
00:07:02,002 --> 00:07:03,114
Come on.
123
00:07:03,933 --> 00:07:05,044
Anyone?
124
00:07:06,373 --> 00:07:08,141
Why are even Yoon Hyuk's servants...
125
00:07:08,142 --> 00:07:10,769
so stubborn and ugly?
126
00:07:17,142 --> 00:07:18,728
What are you doing here?
127
00:07:19,752 --> 00:07:22,450
What brings you here?
128
00:07:23,822 --> 00:07:26,449
Is Yoon Hyuk not home today too?
129
00:07:27,493 --> 00:07:29,311
Yes. That's what I heard.
130
00:07:30,363 --> 00:07:31,444
We should...
131
00:07:32,462 --> 00:07:34,219
pretend like we didn't see each other.
132
00:07:35,762 --> 00:07:36,772
Wait.
133
00:07:38,303 --> 00:07:41,605
I think that's the same thing I bought. How much was yours?
134
00:08:01,123 --> 00:08:02,305
Section Chief of Personnel.
135
00:08:03,293 --> 00:08:05,732
Sir, haven't you gone home again?
136
00:08:05,733 --> 00:08:06,932
It's been 10 days already.
137
00:08:06,933 --> 00:08:08,073
I'm glad you're here.
138
00:08:09,962 --> 00:08:11,953
This is the new appointments for the three agencies.
139
00:08:12,173 --> 00:08:15,571
Immediately send this to Saheonbu, Saganwon, and Hongmoongwan.
140
00:08:15,572 --> 00:08:16,771
Yes, sir.
141
00:08:16,772 --> 00:08:18,429
(Three agencies: Saheonbu, Saganwon, and Hongmoongwan)
142
00:08:22,512 --> 00:08:24,811
- What is this? - This is ridiculous.
143
00:08:24,812 --> 00:08:25,863
Doesn't this mean...
144
00:08:26,252 --> 00:08:28,451
that they'll change everything?
145
00:08:28,452 --> 00:08:30,140
They're changing all three agencies!
146
00:08:37,792 --> 00:08:39,332
It's the Section Chief's new personnel appointment.
147
00:08:39,333 --> 00:08:40,462
(Personnel Appointment)
148
00:08:40,463 --> 00:08:42,119
Starting today, March 25,
149
00:08:42,532 --> 00:08:44,421
all current officials...
150
00:08:45,073 --> 00:08:46,719
of Saganwon, Hongmoongwan, and Saheonbu...
151
00:08:48,873 --> 00:08:50,316
will be re-evaluated.
152
00:08:50,642 --> 00:08:52,411
Inspector Park, it has begun.
153
00:08:52,412 --> 00:08:54,362
- Finally. - It's finally happening.
154
00:08:57,483 --> 00:08:58,982
(Personnel Appointment)
155
00:08:58,983 --> 00:09:02,013
If corruption related to rank appointment,
156
00:09:02,223 --> 00:09:04,849
cheating, or problems are found during this period,
157
00:09:05,052 --> 00:09:06,791
their ranks will be lowered.
158
00:09:06,792 --> 00:09:09,921
Getting rid of corruption is being used as an excuse for change.
159
00:09:09,922 --> 00:09:11,391
This is nothing but political revenge.
160
00:09:11,392 --> 00:09:12,442
You're right.
161
00:09:12,532 --> 00:09:15,693
This is a vicious intention to cause chaos in this kingdom!
162
00:09:16,363 --> 00:09:20,272
And if the actions of corruption are found to be severe,
163
00:09:21,103 --> 00:09:22,891
the related personnel will be fired and arrested...
164
00:09:24,103 --> 00:09:26,901
despite their current status.
165
00:09:28,983 --> 00:09:31,551
Yoon Hyuk. Has this man gone insane?
166
00:09:31,552 --> 00:09:33,352
How could he do this even to Saheonbu?
167
00:09:33,353 --> 00:09:35,100
Isn't this where he belonged?
168
00:09:35,483 --> 00:09:38,179
We won't all get fired, right?
169
00:09:38,693 --> 00:09:39,904
Don't you know Yoon Hyuk?
170
00:09:40,693 --> 00:09:42,885
He's so stubborn that he never compromises with reality.
171
00:09:44,733 --> 00:09:47,389
It's because he has His Majesty and the Crown Prince on his side.
172
00:09:49,563 --> 00:09:50,946
He's confident because of that.
173
00:09:59,672 --> 00:10:01,399
I heard that Section Chief Yoon has come to the palace.
174
00:10:01,713 --> 00:10:03,156
Yes, Your Highness.
175
00:10:04,412 --> 00:10:05,867
You should come inside.
176
00:10:08,422 --> 00:10:10,352
(King Gyeongjong)
177
00:10:10,353 --> 00:10:13,826
All officials of the three agencies will be re-evaluated?
178
00:10:13,892 --> 00:10:15,004
Yes, Your Majesty.
179
00:10:15,223 --> 00:10:18,424
I sent this personnel appointment to all three agencies first.
180
00:10:19,292 --> 00:10:22,463
Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has arrived.
181
00:10:22,833 --> 00:10:23,873
The Crown Prince?
182
00:10:23,963 --> 00:10:26,332
I sent a message to the Crown Prince.
183
00:10:26,333 --> 00:10:28,928
I thought he would have to know about this too.
184
00:10:36,012 --> 00:10:37,699
Greetings, Your Highness.
185
00:10:43,182 --> 00:10:44,263
Your Majesty.
186
00:10:45,022 --> 00:10:46,032
Right.
187
00:10:47,252 --> 00:10:48,334
Hello.
188
00:10:54,063 --> 00:10:56,083
Are you suspecting people from the Crown Prince Palace?
189
00:10:56,233 --> 00:10:57,362
Isn't that too much?
190
00:10:57,363 --> 00:11:01,342
It's just a mere letter suggesting vicarious governing.
191
00:11:01,343 --> 00:11:04,271
A mere letter? Don't you know what vicarious governing means?
192
00:11:04,272 --> 00:11:06,869
That means that His Majesty should retire now.
193
00:11:07,613 --> 00:11:10,112
That's enough to accuse the Crown Prince for treason.
194
00:11:10,113 --> 00:11:11,768
But the Crown Prince that I've seen...
195
00:11:11,912 --> 00:11:13,902
isn't someone who would threaten His Majesty.
196
00:11:14,453 --> 00:11:17,714
Since when have you trusted people when it came to politics?
197
00:11:18,652 --> 00:11:21,793
We should look at the facts, not the people.
198
00:11:22,063 --> 00:11:25,324
If the Crown Prince does better and gains more popularity,
199
00:11:25,833 --> 00:11:29,499
His Majesty's position will be threatened in the end.
200
00:11:32,772 --> 00:11:33,782
Really?
201
00:11:34,703 --> 00:11:36,924
The Crown Prince has a different opinion?
202
00:11:37,073 --> 00:11:40,304
If I may add my opinion, I would say so.
203
00:11:40,912 --> 00:11:42,612
Section Chief Yoon's personnel appointment...
204
00:11:42,613 --> 00:11:44,281
is required for this revolution.
205
00:11:44,282 --> 00:11:45,524
But before taking this into action,
206
00:11:46,012 --> 00:11:49,114
I think it would be better to give people a chance to repent.
207
00:11:49,282 --> 00:11:52,751
Do you mean that we should give them a chance to change themselves?
208
00:11:52,752 --> 00:11:54,092
Especially Saheonbu...
209
00:11:54,093 --> 00:11:56,041
is a proud and united organization.
210
00:11:56,522 --> 00:11:58,987
The more we pressure them, the more they'll resist.
211
00:11:59,162 --> 00:12:02,092
That will return as a burden to His Majesty.
212
00:12:04,502 --> 00:12:06,531
Are you worrying about me?
213
00:12:06,532 --> 00:12:09,202
So I think it would be better if you took a step back...
214
00:12:09,203 --> 00:12:10,991
and give them a chance.
215
00:12:11,912 --> 00:12:15,073
You warned them that they won't be able to survive without change.
216
00:12:15,782 --> 00:12:17,156
Give them some time first.
217
00:12:17,412 --> 00:12:20,442
Then take the personnel appointment into action.
218
00:12:24,792 --> 00:12:26,772
You want Section Chief Yoon to lead from the front...
219
00:12:27,323 --> 00:12:29,242
and me to open the back door?
220
00:12:29,662 --> 00:12:32,924
I also think that the Crown Prince is judging correctly.
221
00:12:33,432 --> 00:12:34,513
Certainly.
222
00:12:35,662 --> 00:12:38,197
The Crown Prince has excellent political skills.
223
00:12:40,573 --> 00:12:43,876
No wonder you think it's ridiculous that I'm the king.
224
00:12:50,983 --> 00:12:52,411
Not at all, Your Majesty. How...
225
00:12:52,412 --> 00:12:54,028
Do as the Crown Prince says.
226
00:12:54,853 --> 00:12:57,021
And from now on, all reports...
227
00:12:57,022 --> 00:12:58,769
should go directly to the Crown Prince Palace.
228
00:12:59,892 --> 00:13:00,952
Even the sanctions...
229
00:13:00,953 --> 00:13:02,421
(Sanctions: The approval of proposals)
230
00:13:02,422 --> 00:13:04,009
Why don't the Crown Prince do it himself?
231
00:13:05,292 --> 00:13:06,879
Inscrutable are your favors, Your Majesty.
232
00:13:08,233 --> 00:13:09,374
But Your Majesty,
233
00:13:10,902 --> 00:13:12,832
- this is not possible. - I'm saying so because...
234
00:13:12,833 --> 00:13:13,943
you'd be good at it.
235
00:13:16,142 --> 00:13:18,192
You seem to be better than me.
236
00:13:38,662 --> 00:13:40,046
Your Highness.
237
00:13:41,463 --> 00:13:44,189
Is something wrong? Why is His Majesty...
238
00:13:45,002 --> 00:13:47,658
I need to get going. Good luck.
239
00:13:48,542 --> 00:13:50,391
I'll tell you the details later.
240
00:13:59,983 --> 00:14:01,841
His Majesty received an appeal...
241
00:14:02,022 --> 00:14:04,352
and Soron is acting suspiciously right after that?
242
00:14:04,353 --> 00:14:07,726
Yes. But there's no way to find out what the appeal is about.
243
00:14:07,823 --> 00:14:09,034
There's no way?
244
00:14:11,632 --> 00:14:13,007
They're trying to hide it.
245
00:14:14,333 --> 00:14:15,645
It means there's a problem.
246
00:14:16,063 --> 00:14:17,702
Who's on our side in Seungjeongwon?
247
00:14:17,703 --> 00:14:18,771
(Seungjeongwon: The king's secretariat)
248
00:14:18,772 --> 00:14:21,470
Find out what the appeal was about immediately.
249
00:14:28,642 --> 00:14:29,742
Your Highness, you're here.
250
00:14:29,743 --> 00:14:31,551
Where's Dal Moon? Is he in?
251
00:14:31,552 --> 00:14:33,331
Yes, he is...
252
00:14:37,052 --> 00:14:40,052
Prince Mil Poong said that to you?
253
00:14:41,022 --> 00:14:44,154
He came to me and said there will be a backfire.
254
00:14:44,932 --> 00:14:48,771
I'm sure he's scheming something.
255
00:14:50,703 --> 00:14:53,661
Are you sure there was nothing...
256
00:14:53,833 --> 00:14:55,085
strange about Prince Mil Poong?
257
00:14:59,042 --> 00:15:01,507
Yes, there was nothing.
258
00:15:02,113 --> 00:15:04,910
All he did was go to courtesan houses and drink.
259
00:15:05,353 --> 00:15:06,464
Really?
260
00:15:06,983 --> 00:15:09,406
Then the strange atmosphere at the palace today...
261
00:15:10,583 --> 00:15:13,017
has nothing to do with Prince Mil Poong?
262
00:15:13,922 --> 00:15:16,246
Did you say the atmosphere at the palace is unusual?
263
00:15:16,662 --> 00:15:19,692
His Majesty was being suspicious of me.
264
00:15:19,693 --> 00:15:21,823
I'll find out what's going on behind the palace walls.
265
00:15:22,132 --> 00:15:24,729
I'll let you know as soon as I find out.
266
00:15:26,333 --> 00:15:27,383
Thanks.
267
00:15:29,672 --> 00:15:31,461
You're always doing me favors.
268
00:15:37,813 --> 00:15:39,096
What do you mean do nothing?
269
00:15:39,182 --> 00:15:41,011
The Crown Prince told you to find out about Prince Mil Poong.
270
00:15:41,012 --> 00:15:42,264
I'll take care of it.
271
00:15:44,252 --> 00:15:47,282
You're my underling, not the Crown Prince's.
272
00:15:49,823 --> 00:15:50,903
Why is that?
273
00:15:51,892 --> 00:15:53,105
Why is Dal Moon...
274
00:16:01,172 --> 00:16:03,223
Officials from the three agencies and Saheonbu are gathered here.
275
00:16:05,343 --> 00:16:06,454
Let's go that way.
276
00:16:11,483 --> 00:16:12,926
What kind of attitude is this?
277
00:16:13,182 --> 00:16:14,612
Do you know who I am?
278
00:16:14,613 --> 00:16:16,773
Saheonbu's executive inspector.
279
00:16:17,552 --> 00:16:19,644
Master Wi Byung Ju.
280
00:16:21,493 --> 00:16:22,604
Hurry up.
281
00:16:23,963 --> 00:16:26,790
You must be desperate to survive.
282
00:16:27,363 --> 00:16:29,221
Executive Inspector. Over here.
283
00:16:32,727 --> 00:16:37,727
[VIU Ver] SBS E25 'Haechi'
"Temptation"
-โฅ Ruo Xi โฅ-
284
00:16:41,642 --> 00:16:44,066
Saheonbu's Executive Inspector Wi Byung Ju.
285
00:16:45,412 --> 00:16:47,504
He's another chess piece that will bring me...
286
00:16:47,983 --> 00:16:49,396
the king's throne.
287
00:16:49,522 --> 00:16:51,099
You're very busy.
288
00:16:52,223 --> 00:16:54,787
You must've worked on him for a long time.
289
00:16:55,863 --> 00:16:57,680
I've waited for this day...
290
00:16:58,193 --> 00:17:00,011
to get rid of the Crown Prince.
291
00:17:02,203 --> 00:17:03,919
Watch Wi Byung Ju carefully...
292
00:17:05,402 --> 00:17:06,917
and tell him what I said.
293
00:17:12,273 --> 00:17:15,071
Who are we? We're the best officials of the three agencies.
294
00:17:15,642 --> 00:17:17,399
We can't let the King and Crown Prince trample on us.
295
00:17:17,843 --> 00:17:21,215
They say the King has taken a step back...
296
00:17:21,553 --> 00:17:23,703
to give us the chance to repent ourselves.
297
00:17:24,623 --> 00:17:25,764
Repent?
298
00:17:25,823 --> 00:17:28,362
Orders were delivered already to Saganwon and Hongmoongwan.
299
00:17:28,363 --> 00:17:30,443
If we get rid of corrupt officials ourselves,
300
00:17:30,992 --> 00:17:32,292
the orders may be adjusted.
301
00:17:32,293 --> 00:17:33,706
That's their plot.
302
00:17:33,932 --> 00:17:35,276
Will you just sit back and watch?
303
00:17:40,103 --> 00:17:42,342
They're trying to make division among us.
304
00:17:42,343 --> 00:17:45,373
We have to gather up strength and find a way for us to survive.
305
00:17:50,712 --> 00:17:51,763
Who?
306
00:17:53,283 --> 00:17:54,798
Hand over Wi Byung Ju?
307
00:17:56,452 --> 00:17:59,724
The King and the Crown Prince has given us a signal.
308
00:18:00,293 --> 00:18:02,181
He'll let the others live if we make a sacrifice.
309
00:18:03,692 --> 00:18:05,914
Still, Executive Inspector Wi...
310
00:18:06,293 --> 00:18:08,525
We can't die all together.
311
00:18:14,132 --> 00:18:15,182
Right.
312
00:18:16,573 --> 00:18:18,966
In fact, Saheonbu became a target...
313
00:18:20,113 --> 00:18:22,681
because Executive Inspector Wi provoked the Crown Prince Palace.
314
00:18:22,682 --> 00:18:23,794
That's it.
315
00:18:23,982 --> 00:18:26,074
We can't suffer from it when we did nothing wrong.
316
00:18:26,313 --> 00:18:28,908
Let's reveal Executive Inspector Wi's corruptions and save Saheonbu.
317
00:18:29,652 --> 00:18:31,875
Wi Byung Ju isn't a Noron anyway.
318
00:18:32,023 --> 00:18:33,466
He's a Namin that acts like a bat.
319
00:18:35,492 --> 00:18:36,502
I'm a Namin?
320
00:18:38,162 --> 00:18:40,385
Since I'm from a Namin family,
321
00:18:40,732 --> 00:18:42,681
they can give me up anytime.
322
00:18:42,962 --> 00:18:44,992
Regardless of how loyal I was.
323
00:18:57,043 --> 00:18:59,073
Executive Inspector, what are you doing?
324
00:18:59,613 --> 00:19:01,228
Burn these outside. Hurry.
325
00:19:03,853 --> 00:19:06,922
These are letters from the cases you were in charge of. Why?
326
00:19:08,763 --> 00:19:09,822
You don't need to know.
327
00:19:09,823 --> 00:19:11,035
I told you to burn them.
328
00:19:11,833 --> 00:19:12,873
Executive Inspector.
329
00:19:21,843 --> 00:19:23,216
I knew it.
330
00:19:25,073 --> 00:19:26,728
You must be feeling guilty...
331
00:19:27,273 --> 00:19:28,656
to want to burn this letter in such a hurry.
332
00:19:31,283 --> 00:19:32,726
Put that down, right now.
333
00:19:33,013 --> 00:19:34,063
That's difficult.
334
00:19:34,513 --> 00:19:37,149
It's evidence to prove your corruption.
335
00:19:43,892 --> 00:19:47,225
(Saheonbu)
336
00:19:55,343 --> 00:19:56,787
Orders from the Chief Inspector.
337
00:19:57,472 --> 00:19:59,694
From this moment on, Inspector Park Mun Su...
338
00:19:59,942 --> 00:20:02,507
is to investigate the corruption of the Executive Inspector.
339
00:20:03,843 --> 00:20:06,307
- What? - Take him to the exam room.
340
00:20:06,813 --> 00:20:08,701
And retrieve all the case documents.
341
00:20:11,892 --> 00:20:13,451
Do you know who I am to treat me like this?
342
00:20:13,452 --> 00:20:14,735
Of course I do.
343
00:20:15,263 --> 00:20:17,413
A suspect being investigated for corruption.
344
00:20:18,222 --> 00:20:20,092
This must be so dirty.
345
00:20:20,093 --> 00:20:22,386
- What? - It's like picking up dung.
346
00:20:24,132 --> 00:20:25,213
Right.
347
00:20:26,103 --> 00:20:27,213
The top officials...
348
00:20:28,742 --> 00:20:31,844
are trying to sacrifice you and save themselves.
349
00:20:32,613 --> 00:20:33,886
But don't worry.
350
00:20:34,472 --> 00:20:35,694
You won't be the only one.
351
00:20:36,942 --> 00:20:38,599
I'll tie all of them together...
352
00:20:39,182 --> 00:20:40,829
and send all of you away.
353
00:20:42,682 --> 00:20:43,692
Let go.
354
00:20:43,922 --> 00:20:45,003
Joo Young Han.
355
00:20:47,053 --> 00:20:49,213
Let go. Let go!
356
00:20:55,202 --> 00:20:56,375
Are you crazy?
357
00:20:57,232 --> 00:20:58,819
I'm Saheonbu's executive inspector!
358
00:20:59,273 --> 00:21:01,051
Oh, of course.
359
00:21:01,672 --> 00:21:03,521
Watch him carefully until the investigation is over.
360
00:21:03,902 --> 00:21:05,760
Don't let him sneak out like a mouse.
361
00:21:05,912 --> 00:21:06,952
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
362
00:21:12,513 --> 00:21:13,523
Move.
363
00:21:15,023 --> 00:21:16,134
Move!
364
00:21:23,763 --> 00:21:25,954
They're doing what we expected.
365
00:21:26,363 --> 00:21:29,797
Saheonbu's top officials gave up Wi Byung Ju before anyone else.
366
00:21:30,033 --> 00:21:32,861
You should've seen him being taken away.
367
00:21:32,932 --> 00:21:36,780
It felt amazing to see him being arrested.
368
00:21:37,573 --> 00:21:39,935
Executive Inspector Wi should pay for what he did.
369
00:21:40,343 --> 00:21:41,797
But I feel bitter for him.
370
00:21:42,682 --> 00:21:43,955
He was given up...
371
00:21:44,682 --> 00:21:46,097
because he wasn't a Noron.
372
00:21:46,513 --> 00:21:50,017
Don't worry, Your Highness. It won't end with him.
373
00:21:50,753 --> 00:21:52,237
I'll take care of Saheonbu.
374
00:21:52,293 --> 00:21:54,273
Don't let your guards down, Mun Su.
375
00:21:54,892 --> 00:21:57,792
This momentum has to lead to a system reform.
376
00:21:57,793 --> 00:22:00,216
Yes. Or else, this momentum...
377
00:22:00,692 --> 00:22:02,349
can backfire anytime.
378
00:22:03,732 --> 00:22:04,814
Your Highness,
379
00:22:06,202 --> 00:22:08,900
what's going on in the palace?
380
00:22:09,803 --> 00:22:11,358
I heard at the Jamojeonga...
381
00:22:11,773 --> 00:22:13,793
that you're gathering information from the palace.
382
00:22:14,672 --> 00:22:17,036
Information from the palace?
383
00:22:17,742 --> 00:22:19,066
Your Highness, why...
384
00:22:19,253 --> 00:22:20,263
You don't need to be worried.
385
00:22:21,182 --> 00:22:22,667
It's nothing out of the ordinary.
386
00:22:22,982 --> 00:22:25,416
But from what I heard...
387
00:22:26,692 --> 00:22:28,107
Goodness, you're worrying again.
388
00:22:29,162 --> 00:22:32,929
The palace is known to have all sorts of rumors.
389
00:22:52,482 --> 00:22:54,401
Look at these wrinkles.
390
00:22:54,853 --> 00:22:56,881
This shows how manly you are.
391
00:22:56,882 --> 00:22:58,468
What are you doing?
392
00:22:59,222 --> 00:23:00,304
What do you think?
393
00:23:00,853 --> 00:23:02,580
I'm reminding myself how manly you are...
394
00:23:03,462 --> 00:23:04,674
and the fact that you're my brother...
395
00:23:05,492 --> 00:23:07,714
and the youngest brother of the group.
396
00:23:08,263 --> 00:23:10,051
- What? - So...
397
00:23:12,103 --> 00:23:14,527
I'm just saying that I hope we can continue...
398
00:23:15,573 --> 00:23:17,522
to be sworn brothers like this.
399
00:23:18,172 --> 00:23:19,253
You, me,
400
00:23:20,043 --> 00:23:21,285
and the Crown Prince.
401
00:23:22,083 --> 00:23:24,940
We were always sworn brothers. What's with the sudden confirmation?
402
00:23:28,382 --> 00:23:31,585
Never mind. By the way, what were you thinking about?
403
00:23:31,853 --> 00:23:33,391
You didn't even notice that I came in.
404
00:23:33,392 --> 00:23:34,937
I'm just constantly worried...
405
00:23:36,722 --> 00:23:37,834
about the Crown Prince.
406
00:23:40,492 --> 00:23:44,441
And it upsets me so much that I can't do anything but worry.
407
00:23:46,902 --> 00:23:49,932
About what you said to His Highness earlier...
408
00:23:50,972 --> 00:23:52,487
Is it something very serious?
409
00:23:54,573 --> 00:23:56,098
The Crown Prince...
410
00:23:56,882 --> 00:23:59,075
is gathering information from the palace.
411
00:23:59,212 --> 00:24:01,505
- The palace? - He's observing the King...
412
00:24:02,123 --> 00:24:03,870
with Dal Moon's help.
413
00:24:04,652 --> 00:24:05,935
But I don't get why.
414
00:24:06,853 --> 00:24:08,610
Why do you think he's doing that?
415
00:24:21,402 --> 00:24:23,772
His Majesty refused to see me tonight?
416
00:24:23,773 --> 00:24:25,056
I'm sorry,
417
00:24:25,242 --> 00:24:28,616
but he does not wish to see you because he has indigestion.
418
00:24:28,783 --> 00:24:30,398
Is he not feeling well?
419
00:24:31,212 --> 00:24:32,829
Then that's more of a reason why I should go see him.
420
00:24:33,313 --> 00:24:35,878
It's my job as the Crown Prince to give medicine to His Majesty.
421
00:24:36,523 --> 00:24:37,563
I will...
422
00:24:38,452 --> 00:24:40,714
do that on your behalf, Your Highness.
423
00:24:43,222 --> 00:24:44,232
Chief Justice.
424
00:24:44,793 --> 00:24:48,266
I'm also the head pharmacist.
425
00:24:48,533 --> 00:24:49,916
From now on,
426
00:24:50,263 --> 00:24:52,859
the royal physician and I will deliver medicine to His Majesty.
427
00:24:53,833 --> 00:24:54,843
Let's go.
428
00:24:55,442 --> 00:24:57,089
Wait.
429
00:24:58,103 --> 00:24:59,123
Are you doing this...
430
00:25:00,513 --> 00:25:02,129
based on the King's orders?
431
00:25:09,222 --> 00:25:11,576
That's right, Your Highness.
432
00:25:12,392 --> 00:25:14,777
And you must keep in mind...
433
00:25:15,593 --> 00:25:18,965
that you cannot overrule the King's orders.
434
00:25:22,833 --> 00:25:24,953
- Let's go. - Yes, sir.
435
00:25:31,702 --> 00:25:32,752
Are you saying...
436
00:25:33,242 --> 00:25:36,012
I must address this issue?
437
00:25:36,013 --> 00:25:39,346
You must punish him so that he will never dream...
438
00:25:39,513 --> 00:25:41,282
of going against you ever again.
439
00:25:41,283 --> 00:25:43,303
This could hurt the Crown Prince.
440
00:25:43,482 --> 00:25:45,891
He might not know anything about the letter of appeal.
441
00:25:45,892 --> 00:25:46,932
How...
442
00:25:48,192 --> 00:25:51,859
can you be sure of that, Your Majesty?
443
00:25:52,333 --> 00:25:55,431
The Crown Prince's role is to support the royal authority,
444
00:25:55,432 --> 00:25:56,817
not threaten it.
445
00:25:58,333 --> 00:26:01,231
However, the fact that someone wants him to govern vicariously...
446
00:26:01,503 --> 00:26:02,786
means that the Crown Prince...
447
00:26:03,373 --> 00:26:07,080
has already become a threat to the royal throne, Your Majesty.
448
00:26:09,642 --> 00:26:11,360
"The country is unstable,"
449
00:26:12,212 --> 00:26:14,304
"and the people of this country are in disarray."
450
00:26:17,853 --> 00:26:19,105
Your Highness.
451
00:26:19,353 --> 00:26:20,622
Look here. You should get up now.
452
00:26:20,623 --> 00:26:24,158
I am sure that you will become a great king.
453
00:26:25,563 --> 00:26:26,703
"However, during this chaos,"
454
00:26:27,093 --> 00:26:30,396
"the Crown Prince showed his ability to console the people..."
455
00:26:30,962 --> 00:26:34,064
"and govern this country with great competence."
456
00:26:36,442 --> 00:26:39,512
"Therefore, please gratify the wishes of your people."
457
00:26:39,513 --> 00:26:40,754
(Your people: The people of Joseon)
458
00:26:41,373 --> 00:26:43,565
"I dare say that it is right for you..."
459
00:26:45,013 --> 00:26:47,911
"to let the Crown Prince govern vicariously."
460
00:26:48,152 --> 00:26:50,522
So I think it would be better if you took a step back...
461
00:26:50,523 --> 00:26:52,311
and give them a chance.
462
00:26:58,192 --> 00:27:00,762
Did you say it seems like something's going on with the King?
463
00:27:00,763 --> 00:27:04,438
Yes, His Majesty apparently rejected the Crown Prince's visit.
464
00:27:07,672 --> 00:27:09,865
Okay, you may go.
465
00:27:10,073 --> 00:27:11,153
Yes, ma'am.
466
00:27:17,182 --> 00:27:19,475
The King and the Crown Prince.
467
00:27:19,982 --> 00:27:21,064
The King...
468
00:27:22,623 --> 00:27:24,067
and the Crown Prince?
469
00:27:34,232 --> 00:27:35,242
Dal Moon.
470
00:27:37,132 --> 00:27:38,401
You have something about the palace?
471
00:27:38,402 --> 00:27:39,442
Yes.
472
00:27:39,902 --> 00:27:41,144
But the thing is...
473
00:27:46,773 --> 00:27:48,025
What is this?
474
00:27:50,242 --> 00:27:52,808
Show this to the Crown Prince as fast as possible. Hurry.
475
00:27:53,113 --> 00:27:54,123
Okay.
476
00:28:02,692 --> 00:28:04,237
"Vicarious governing"?
477
00:28:05,192 --> 00:28:06,646
How could anyone dare to...
478
00:28:07,093 --> 00:28:09,602
Who in the world wrote this disastrous letter?
479
00:28:09,603 --> 00:28:12,430
I'm sorry, but Dal Moon couldn't find out who it was.
480
00:28:17,972 --> 00:28:19,023
Your Highness.
481
00:28:19,513 --> 00:28:21,641
- Your Highness! - What's vicarious governing?
482
00:28:21,642 --> 00:28:23,865
Why does he look so pale?
483
00:28:24,642 --> 00:28:26,711
It means someone wants the Crown Prince...
484
00:28:26,712 --> 00:28:28,874
to rule the country on behalf of the King.
485
00:28:29,182 --> 00:28:32,082
This could end up becoming treason.
486
00:28:32,692 --> 00:28:35,247
Treason? That's absurd.
487
00:28:36,023 --> 00:28:37,792
The Crown Prince isn't the one who wrote it.
488
00:28:37,793 --> 00:28:39,262
It's not what he wants. So how could...
489
00:28:39,263 --> 00:28:40,344
No.
490
00:28:40,662 --> 00:28:42,985
That's exactly how things work inside the palace.
491
00:28:43,132 --> 00:28:45,131
Even if the Crown Prince had nothing to do with it,
492
00:28:45,132 --> 00:28:47,332
people can make it seem like he was the one behind it.
493
00:28:47,333 --> 00:28:48,413
What?
494
00:28:51,103 --> 00:28:54,305
Are you serious? Someone really wrote this letter of appeal?
495
00:28:55,313 --> 00:28:58,241
I copied the letter word by word.
496
00:28:59,813 --> 00:29:00,994
Min Jin Heon.
497
00:29:12,843 --> 00:29:15,468
(Episode 26 will air shortly.)
498
00:29:21,549 --> 00:29:23,104
Min Jin Heon, was it you...
499
00:29:23,650 --> 00:29:25,406
who plotted such a thing?
500
00:29:26,690 --> 00:29:28,335
Answer me, Chairman of Congress.
501
00:29:29,290 --> 00:29:31,310
The appeal for vicarious governing.
502
00:29:32,850 --> 00:29:33,889
I'm asking...
503
00:29:34,749 --> 00:29:36,466
if it was you who did that.
504
00:29:41,220 --> 00:29:42,502
You can leave now.
505
00:29:49,230 --> 00:29:51,077
Do you know who that was?
506
00:29:52,129 --> 00:29:54,028
He's Seungjeongwon's juseo.
507
00:29:54,029 --> 00:29:55,539
(Juseo: The senior seventh rank at Seungjeongwon)
508
00:29:55,540 --> 00:29:57,964
If I was the one who plotted this,
509
00:29:58,970 --> 00:30:00,051
why would I...
510
00:30:01,879 --> 00:30:04,607
be looking at a copy of the appeal?
511
00:30:06,879 --> 00:30:08,798
I'm saying it wasn't me, Your Highness.
512
00:30:08,980 --> 00:30:10,838
I also can't find out...
513
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,568
who's behind this incident.
514
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:21,259
Dal Moon.
515
00:30:21,260 --> 00:30:23,482
I've been following Prince Mil Poong.
516
00:30:24,730 --> 00:30:28,164
I found out that he's trying to corner the Crown Prince Palace.
517
00:30:29,339 --> 00:30:30,380
Was that it?
518
00:30:31,499 --> 00:30:32,783
"Vicarious governing".
519
00:30:36,109 --> 00:30:38,634
To bring down the Crown Prince through that?
520
00:30:49,189 --> 00:30:50,431
Then why...
521
00:30:51,889 --> 00:30:53,374
didn't you tell him?
522
00:30:55,359 --> 00:30:58,086
Why didn't you inform it to the Crown Prince Palace when you knew?
523
00:31:01,969 --> 00:31:02,979
Temptation.
524
00:31:06,010 --> 00:31:07,625
I might've been lured again...
525
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:10,960
and lost my judgment.
526
00:31:11,439 --> 00:31:12,459
(Saheonbu)
527
00:31:15,820 --> 00:31:20,162
Judging from your face, you haven't found a way to survive.
528
00:31:21,419 --> 00:31:22,934
Sometimes from desire.
529
00:31:24,690 --> 00:31:25,840
Implement...
530
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:27,973
the orders.
531
00:31:28,290 --> 00:31:29,844
Sometimes out of fear.
532
00:31:30,799 --> 00:31:31,839
Human beings...
533
00:31:33,699 --> 00:31:35,254
are always tempted...
534
00:31:37,169 --> 00:31:38,785
knowing that they're wrong.
535
00:31:47,949 --> 00:31:50,070
It's also for your sake.
536
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:52,632
I mean it.
537
00:31:54,190 --> 00:31:56,210
The Crown Prince isn't fit to be king.
538
00:31:56,690 --> 00:31:59,154
Siding with Prince Mil Poong is the only way for you to survive.
539
00:32:02,799 --> 00:32:04,344
Luckily, the Crown Prince...
540
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,168
trusts you. So you can use that...
541
00:32:07,169 --> 00:32:08,958
Yes, His Highness would trust me...
542
00:32:10,340 --> 00:32:11,713
no matter what I tell him.
543
00:32:14,940 --> 00:32:16,090
Am I finally...
544
00:32:17,739 --> 00:32:19,698
able to give you what you want?
545
00:32:26,850 --> 00:32:27,930
Right.
546
00:32:29,119 --> 00:32:30,533
It isn't Min Jin Heon.
547
00:32:32,090 --> 00:32:34,382
He was certainly surprised as much as I was.
548
00:32:36,630 --> 00:32:39,155
Are you sure there was nothing...
549
00:32:39,299 --> 00:32:40,613
strange about Prince Mil Poong?
550
00:32:40,630 --> 00:32:41,679
Yes,
551
00:32:42,639 --> 00:32:43,750
there was nothing.
552
00:32:45,139 --> 00:32:47,634
All he did was go to courtesan houses and drink.
553
00:32:49,709 --> 00:32:50,719
Dal Moon.
554
00:32:52,810 --> 00:32:54,465
He can't be wrong.
555
00:32:56,449 --> 00:32:58,196
But if it isn't Prince Mil Poong either,
556
00:32:59,750 --> 00:33:00,831
who can it be?
557
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:03,835
Who could dare do this?
558
00:33:08,260 --> 00:33:09,729
- What do you think about this? - Make way.
559
00:33:09,730 --> 00:33:11,529
- This is what I meant. - Please make way.
560
00:33:11,530 --> 00:33:13,185
My goodness. Please make way.
561
00:33:14,929 --> 00:33:16,999
- My goodness. - My goodness.
562
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:18,111
Are you okay?
563
00:33:18,609 --> 00:33:19,680
Darn it.
564
00:33:20,510 --> 00:33:22,398
Everything was going so well. What is this sudden trouble?
565
00:33:22,980 --> 00:33:24,322
What is this?
566
00:33:26,210 --> 00:33:27,623
I'm sorry.
567
00:33:33,189 --> 00:33:34,330
Master Mun Su.
568
00:33:39,259 --> 00:33:42,431
This is the list of people Wi Byung Ju has been impeaching.
569
00:33:42,530 --> 00:33:44,348
- What do they have in common? - They're all Soron.
570
00:33:44,460 --> 00:33:47,196
Most of them were framed to be impeached.
571
00:33:47,330 --> 00:33:49,158
This reek of corruption.
572
00:33:49,239 --> 00:33:51,199
I think this will be more than enough...
573
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:52,725
- to punish Wi Byung Ju. - No.
574
00:33:53,770 --> 00:33:55,759
I'm sure that he received bribes.
575
00:33:56,109 --> 00:33:57,655
We must reveal that too.
576
00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,849
You want him to never be able to become an official again, right?
577
00:33:59,850 --> 00:34:00,860
Of course.
578
00:34:01,150 --> 00:34:03,341
We should strip off everything from jerks like him.
579
00:34:06,049 --> 00:34:07,807
Master Mun Su! Yeo Ji!
580
00:34:09,660 --> 00:34:10,699
What's wrong, Ah Bong?
581
00:34:11,290 --> 00:34:12,977
There's big trouble.
582
00:34:12,989 --> 00:34:16,434
The Palace... Vicarious governing... The Crown Prince...
583
00:34:16,759 --> 00:34:17,911
What are you saying, Ah Bong?
584
00:34:18,359 --> 00:34:19,379
What about the Crown Prince?
585
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:30,889
Your Highness!
586
00:34:32,679 --> 00:34:35,335
Your Highness. Crown Prince.
587
00:34:44,419 --> 00:34:45,541
Is it true...
588
00:34:47,059 --> 00:34:48,474
that even you don't know?
589
00:34:49,129 --> 00:34:50,311
Yes.
590
00:34:51,429 --> 00:34:52,813
Vicarious governing?
591
00:34:53,470 --> 00:34:55,498
Your position and our group doesn't have enough power yet.
592
00:34:55,499 --> 00:34:56,611
How could we do that?
593
00:34:57,299 --> 00:34:59,209
We did support you in becoming Crown Prince,
594
00:34:59,210 --> 00:35:01,568
but you didn't even realize our loyalty.
595
00:35:01,569 --> 00:35:03,358
He's right. We're innocent.
596
00:35:03,580 --> 00:35:06,849
To be honest, I rather regret supporting you.
597
00:35:06,850 --> 00:35:07,860
Watch your mouth.
598
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:11,530
Your Highness.
599
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:14,630
Crown Prince.
600
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:16,630
The palace...
601
00:35:27,369 --> 00:35:30,067
Chairman of Congress. I think Soron is on the move.
602
00:35:32,939 --> 00:35:35,393
I knew this would happen.
603
00:35:35,809 --> 00:35:37,295
Why not?
604
00:35:37,509 --> 00:35:40,237
Noron's Kim Chang Joong and Yi Yi Gyeom were friends.
605
00:35:40,650 --> 00:35:43,609
The Crown Prince must be warned.
606
00:35:43,780 --> 00:35:45,918
He should know what could happen if the Crown Prince...
607
00:35:45,919 --> 00:35:47,465
tries to take over the throne.
608
00:35:49,859 --> 00:35:51,537
Of course.
609
00:35:52,359 --> 00:35:53,542
His Majesty...
610
00:35:54,330 --> 00:35:55,744
thinks the same.
611
00:36:01,230 --> 00:36:03,592
Have you read the entire letter of appeal?
612
00:36:06,340 --> 00:36:08,258
What do you think, Crown Prince?
613
00:36:10,210 --> 00:36:11,220
What do you think...
614
00:36:12,410 --> 00:36:15,006
about the suggestion that I should let you take over...
615
00:36:16,220 --> 00:36:17,694
- my royal duties? - Your Majesty.
616
00:36:18,319 --> 00:36:20,239
This is nothing but vicious treason.
617
00:36:20,790 --> 00:36:24,118
Do not get bothered by such manipulation.
618
00:36:24,119 --> 00:36:25,628
(Manipulation: Lying for vicious intentions)
619
00:36:25,629 --> 00:36:26,802
"Manipulation"?
620
00:36:28,629 --> 00:36:30,115
How is this manipulation?
621
00:36:32,629 --> 00:36:35,023
I think this is reasonable.
622
00:36:36,669 --> 00:36:38,517
In fact, you gained the people's trust...
623
00:36:38,869 --> 00:36:40,455
at the banquet.
624
00:36:41,540 --> 00:36:42,539
And didn't you attempt to end...
625
00:36:42,540 --> 00:36:44,095
the corruption of the three agencies?
626
00:36:45,710 --> 00:36:47,599
You did that instead of me, the king.
627
00:36:47,749 --> 00:36:50,405
That's not true, Your Majesty.
628
00:36:50,780 --> 00:36:52,537
- I merely... - That's why...
629
00:36:54,790 --> 00:36:56,719
I am considering of approving this, Crown Prince.
630
00:36:56,720 --> 00:36:59,058
(Considering approval: Willingly accept)
631
00:36:59,059 --> 00:37:01,281
I'll let you do vicarious governing...
632
00:37:01,929 --> 00:37:03,444
and try giving you my royal duties.
633
00:37:04,230 --> 00:37:06,522
- Your Majesty. - Bring in the chair!
634
00:37:35,799 --> 00:37:37,546
Now, sit here,
635
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:40,791
and perform the royal duties, Crown Prince.
636
00:37:43,499 --> 00:37:45,692
Now, I'll step back behind you...
637
00:37:47,039 --> 00:37:49,333
just like everyone wishes.
638
00:38:04,460 --> 00:38:05,702
How does this make any sense?
639
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,690
The Crown Prince is being cornered by just a mere letter of appeal.
640
00:38:10,830 --> 00:38:14,335
His Majesty has always lived under the pressure of being dethroned.
641
00:38:15,170 --> 00:38:16,352
It might be only natural...
642
00:38:17,070 --> 00:38:18,398
for him to suspect His Highness.
643
00:38:18,399 --> 00:38:20,238
But the Crown Prince isn't someone like that.
644
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:23,037
You know how such words mean nothing in the palace.
645
00:38:30,820 --> 00:38:31,860
So...
646
00:38:33,220 --> 00:38:34,300
The Crown Prince...
647
00:38:35,149 --> 00:38:38,453
What does His Highness plan to do now?
648
00:38:38,889 --> 00:38:41,050
I think he'll have no choice but to repeatedly beg for forgiveness.
649
00:38:43,859 --> 00:38:45,688
"Please cancel the order for vicarious governing."
650
00:38:47,670 --> 00:38:49,720
He'll have no choice but to wish for the misunderstanding to clear...
651
00:38:51,300 --> 00:38:52,622
while begging for forgiveness.
652
00:38:57,009 --> 00:38:58,008
A repentance ritual?
653
00:38:58,009 --> 00:39:00,049
(Repentance ritual: Begging for the king's punishment)
654
00:39:00,050 --> 00:39:01,464
Is that what you mean?
655
00:39:08,690 --> 00:39:09,901
What did he do wrong?
656
00:39:11,759 --> 00:39:13,103
Why does the Crown Prince...
657
00:39:14,029 --> 00:39:16,887
have to show everyone on his knees begging for forgiveness?
658
00:41:26,730 --> 00:41:28,073
Have you heard?
659
00:41:28,430 --> 00:41:31,329
The Crown Prince has begun a repentance ritual in the palace.
660
00:41:34,269 --> 00:41:36,390
I'm sure he had no choice.
661
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,427
His Majesty's suspicions have become stronger now.
662
00:41:41,570 --> 00:41:44,236
How else would the Crown Prince get over this situation?
663
00:41:45,409 --> 00:41:46,709
What should we do?
664
00:41:46,710 --> 00:41:49,073
- Should we get rid of... - No.
665
00:41:50,580 --> 00:41:51,691
This time,
666
00:41:52,350 --> 00:41:54,107
we should let Soron take care of this.
667
00:41:57,359 --> 00:41:59,350
We don't know where this wind started.
668
00:42:02,899 --> 00:42:06,565
We shouldn't do anything rash before we find out who started this.
669
00:42:07,369 --> 00:42:09,188
The King and the Sorons...
670
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:12,439
will attack the Crown Prince...
671
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:15,096
although it might not ruin him completely.
672
00:42:27,149 --> 00:42:28,906
Do you also think...
673
00:42:31,119 --> 00:42:32,746
I might covet the throne...
674
00:42:34,460 --> 00:42:36,378
and harm the King?
675
00:42:38,830 --> 00:42:40,142
Just like...
676
00:42:42,899 --> 00:42:45,728
what you said to me on the first day we met?
677
00:42:48,409 --> 00:42:50,834
"That's why I can't..."
678
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:53,661
"trust you."
679
00:42:56,320 --> 00:43:00,087
That's why I can't trust you.
680
00:43:00,590 --> 00:43:01,660
Because you might...
681
00:43:03,389 --> 00:43:05,813
- reach for the throne. - "Reach for the throne".
682
00:43:24,279 --> 00:43:26,299
Does that mean you will acknowledge me...
683
00:43:26,450 --> 00:43:28,702
if I prove myself as king material?
684
00:43:29,220 --> 00:43:33,057
If I prove my qualities as king to govern the nation?
685
00:43:35,350 --> 00:43:37,441
What caused her such pain?
686
00:43:38,159 --> 00:43:39,401
What...
687
00:43:40,759 --> 00:43:43,052
made her hold that knife?
688
00:43:45,129 --> 00:43:48,401
Before accusing them of their crime,
689
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:51,460
I wanted to find that out first.
690
00:43:52,470 --> 00:43:54,692
May I tell you what I'm thinking?
691
00:43:55,070 --> 00:43:59,079
This rare opportunity should be used to realize...
692
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:02,094
what His Majesty wants.
693
00:44:15,690 --> 00:44:17,316
The reason I can't acknowledge you...
694
00:44:17,999 --> 00:44:19,888
is not because you're a peasant's son.
695
00:44:21,300 --> 00:44:22,915
It's in competence and not in blood.
696
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:26,394
That should be prioritized for the kingdom's good.
697
00:44:28,039 --> 00:44:29,080
But...
698
00:44:29,879 --> 00:44:32,001
is this how things are going to end?
699
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:34,561
Is there really...
700
00:44:37,420 --> 00:44:38,430
nothing...
701
00:44:39,950 --> 00:44:41,908
that I can do?
702
00:44:52,999 --> 00:44:54,111
My lady.
703
00:44:54,830 --> 00:44:56,688
I was waiting for you to show up.
704
00:44:56,869 --> 00:44:59,061
What about the Crown Prince? Where is the Crown Prince?
705
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,061
You won't be able to see him today.
706
00:45:04,909 --> 00:45:05,950
No.
707
00:45:06,980 --> 00:45:08,566
Can I at least see him from afar?
708
00:45:10,149 --> 00:45:12,342
Can I see how he's doing?
709
00:45:17,159 --> 00:45:19,310
I'm not saying we should disobey the King's orders.
710
00:45:19,730 --> 00:45:22,487
However, we are the Crown Prince's teachers.
711
00:45:22,899 --> 00:45:24,778
So we of all people...
712
00:45:25,659 --> 00:45:28,154
should be protecting the Crown Prince.
713
00:45:36,539 --> 00:45:40,108
Are you asking me to convince the King?
714
00:45:40,109 --> 00:45:42,819
I apologize, but because we are so lacking,
715
00:45:42,820 --> 00:45:44,768
we cannot think of any other way out of this.
716
00:45:45,180 --> 00:45:48,887
Please convince the King to come back to his normal self.
717
00:45:49,050 --> 00:45:51,816
The King is not a heartless person.
718
00:45:52,619 --> 00:45:55,358
He's just become very sensitive due to the chaos...
719
00:45:55,359 --> 00:45:58,733
Yes, of course. We already know that, Queen Dowager.
720
00:46:00,100 --> 00:46:01,817
However, this is not the right time for this.
721
00:46:02,230 --> 00:46:04,699
People will try even harder to get in between...
722
00:46:04,700 --> 00:46:06,326
the King and the Crown Prince.
723
00:46:06,710 --> 00:46:08,469
We must stop them from getting what they want...
724
00:46:08,470 --> 00:46:10,297
in order to maintain the family tree of the royal family.

726
00:46:27,190 --> 00:46:28,978
It's raining. Darn it.
727
00:46:29,730 --> 00:46:31,315
Even the weather isn't helping.
728
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:33,541
Does that mean the Crown Prince...
729
00:46:34,370 --> 00:46:36,046
is getting soaked under the rain right now?
730
00:46:38,970 --> 00:46:40,019
Your Highness...
731
00:47:00,529 --> 00:47:02,307
You asked me not to ask you anything.
732
00:47:03,130 --> 00:47:04,775
But I still must know.
733
00:47:05,700 --> 00:47:08,699
You're right. If that's what you've decided to do,
734
00:47:08,700 --> 00:47:10,254
I should follow your orders. There's no question about that.
735
00:47:11,940 --> 00:47:12,980
But...
736
00:47:14,309 --> 00:47:16,158
are you really going to abandon the Crown Prince?
737
00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:20,906
I know we're a bunch of homeless punks with no legitimate background,
738
00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:23,134
but this is still wrong.
739
00:47:25,519 --> 00:47:26,732
Dal Moon.
740
00:47:29,759 --> 00:47:32,214
(Letter of Repentance)
741
00:48:11,730 --> 00:48:13,417
Who could it be?
742
00:48:16,269 --> 00:48:18,492
I wonder who planned something like this.
743
00:48:20,009 --> 00:48:21,787
(Letter of Appeal)
744
00:48:22,110 --> 00:48:24,231
Is this going to be the end?
745
00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:26,498
Is that really true, Prince Mil Poong?
746
00:48:27,380 --> 00:48:28,622
Of course.
747
00:48:29,180 --> 00:48:32,715
I'm the one who came up with the vicarious governing scheme.
748
00:48:36,620 --> 00:48:39,963
But why are you telling me that?
749
00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:41,959
What if I report you to the Saheonbu?
750
00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:43,414
Because I know you won't do that.
751
00:48:44,430 --> 00:48:46,450
Wi Byung Ju, the executive inspector of the Saheonbu.
752
00:48:47,029 --> 00:48:48,039
But you got...
753
00:48:48,970 --> 00:48:50,787
cast out of the group.
754
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:53,831
You got investigated for having committed irregularities.
755
00:48:54,769 --> 00:48:57,809
You'll also have to take off that fancy uniform soon.
756
00:49:00,710 --> 00:49:02,730
I know that look very well.
757
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:05,619
It's what I see on the hand glass.
758
00:49:05,620 --> 00:49:07,088
(Hand Glass: A mirror that shows one's reflection)
759
00:49:07,089 --> 00:49:08,736
It's very much like the look in my eyes.
760
00:49:09,819 --> 00:49:12,088
You went through so much to get to where you are.
761
00:49:12,089 --> 00:49:13,806
So I'm sure you can't give everything up so easily.
762
00:49:14,390 --> 00:49:18,198
I'm sure you also want to destroy the Crown Prince as much as I do.
763
00:49:21,900 --> 00:49:23,486
What is your plan?
764
00:49:24,299 --> 00:49:25,598
You won't be able to get rid of the Crown Prince...
765
00:49:25,599 --> 00:49:27,469
with just a letter asking for vicarious governing.
766
00:49:27,470 --> 00:49:31,620
Well, that's not the end. I have a lot more prepared.
767
00:49:33,809 --> 00:49:35,379
How are things at your place?
768
00:49:35,380 --> 00:49:37,018
What does the Chief Inspector say?
769
00:49:37,019 --> 00:49:38,636
Things aren't looking very well.
770
00:49:39,180 --> 00:49:40,665
He doesn't seem to have any plan.
771
00:49:41,690 --> 00:49:44,889
What about your grandfather? Is he also clueless?
772
00:49:44,890 --> 00:49:46,929
Why did he have to get involved with the Crown Prince?
773
00:49:46,930 --> 00:49:48,959
I'm scared that our family might end up getting in trouble.
774
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:50,798
Goodness, don't even say that.
775
00:49:50,799 --> 00:49:53,759
I brought you some more drinks.
776
00:49:53,829 --> 00:49:54,839
Gosh.
777
00:49:55,470 --> 00:49:57,965
- Drink up and get wasted. - This is a very expensive drink.
778
00:49:58,440 --> 00:49:59,682
- Okay. - Thank you.
779
00:50:01,470 --> 00:50:02,995
Gosh, this is a very expensive drink.
780
00:50:05,910 --> 00:50:07,798
- Drink up. - Sure.
781
00:50:09,009 --> 00:50:11,605
I will let you become the head of Saheonbu...
782
00:50:12,220 --> 00:50:13,462
if you agree to cooperate with me...
783
00:50:14,819 --> 00:50:17,546
and help me destroy the Crown Prince.
784
00:50:22,259 --> 00:50:23,629
It's all in here.
785
00:50:23,630 --> 00:50:27,841
It has everything we need to get rid of the Crown Prince.
786
00:50:35,210 --> 00:50:36,220
Prince Mil Poong.
787
00:50:36,739 --> 00:50:38,860
- With this, we can attack him... - No.
788
00:50:41,150 --> 00:50:42,361
Not today.
789
00:50:45,620 --> 00:50:46,701
Maybe tomorrow.
790
00:50:50,660 --> 00:50:52,578
When you're doing a repentance ritual,
791
00:50:52,819 --> 00:50:54,788
I heard your entire body starts aching like crazy...
792
00:50:54,789 --> 00:50:57,224
only after two hours of having waited on your knees.
793
00:50:57,799 --> 00:51:00,597
They say it's so painful that you'd rather want to die instead.
794
00:51:02,069 --> 00:51:03,686
We should let the Crown Prince...
795
00:51:06,140 --> 00:51:08,493
protect the royal palace at least for today.
796
00:51:10,509 --> 00:51:13,510
He needs to know what real pain feels like.
797
00:51:14,279 --> 00:51:15,462
That's the only way...
798
00:51:17,620 --> 00:51:20,216
Yi Geum will awaken himself to the truth.
799
00:51:22,420 --> 00:51:23,430
Become a king?
800
00:51:25,220 --> 00:51:26,472
That will never happen to him.
801
00:51:28,029 --> 00:51:31,635
He will learn that he's nothing but a lowly insect.
802
00:51:51,349 --> 00:51:52,461
Your Highness.
803
00:51:53,390 --> 00:51:55,268
Please get back up.
804
00:51:55,690 --> 00:51:57,780
You will end up harming yourself.
805
00:51:59,319 --> 00:52:00,541
You should go.
806
00:52:02,140 --> 00:52:04,332
Your Highness, please. Please.
807
00:52:04,350 --> 00:52:05,460
Please.
808
00:52:06,449 --> 00:52:07,459
What are you doing?
809
00:52:09,789 --> 00:52:10,861
Go on.
810
00:52:11,850 --> 00:52:12,860
Your Highness.
811
00:52:17,090 --> 00:52:19,008
Your Highness, no.
812
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:21,783
Your Highness! Your Highness.
813
00:52:37,979 --> 00:52:39,091
Queen Dowager.
814
00:52:39,949 --> 00:52:41,679
But your words...
815
00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:43,204
If I dare to speak,
816
00:52:44,150 --> 00:52:47,119
I think I know how you feel.
817
00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:50,150
And how the Crown Prince feels.
818
00:52:51,060 --> 00:52:54,329
You've always been living with the fear...
819
00:52:54,330 --> 00:52:56,278
of being dethroned.
820
00:52:57,100 --> 00:53:00,068
You know more than anyone how painful that is.
821
00:53:00,299 --> 00:53:02,016
Then why are you...
822
00:53:04,070 --> 00:53:06,564
trying to make the Crown Prince undergo that same pain?
823
00:53:07,180 --> 00:53:08,250
Do you mean...
824
00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:11,809
I'm causing the Crown Prince trouble?
825
00:53:11,810 --> 00:53:14,273
You know the right way.
826
00:53:15,019 --> 00:53:16,838
It's just that right now...
827
00:53:16,949 --> 00:53:19,188
your pure heart is shaken by evil words.
828
00:53:19,189 --> 00:53:20,300
Queen Dowager.
829
00:53:20,959 --> 00:53:23,889
Your Majesty, I have something to report to you urgently.
830
00:53:24,259 --> 00:53:25,401
What is it?
831
00:53:27,630 --> 00:53:30,700
Your Majesty, you need to leave quickly.
832
00:53:41,380 --> 00:53:44,410
What is this report of treason saying?
833
00:53:44,479 --> 00:53:46,409
It was delivered from Saheonbu.
834
00:53:46,410 --> 00:53:48,097
Saheonbu's Executive Inspector Wi Byung Ju...
835
00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:50,729
Junior Second Rank.
836
00:53:52,449 --> 00:53:55,216
- Your Majesty. - What is going on?
837
00:53:56,529 --> 00:53:57,641
Treason?
838
00:53:58,729 --> 00:54:00,429
A group of traitors were caught?
839
00:54:00,430 --> 00:54:02,015
(Traitors: Those who rebel against the king)
840
00:54:18,479 --> 00:54:20,267
Why are Saheonbu's soldiers starting to move?
841
00:54:20,350 --> 00:54:21,592
Did you hear?
842
00:54:21,749 --> 00:54:23,366
Wi Byung Ju was released.
843
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:25,160
What?
844
00:54:26,289 --> 00:54:27,288
How did he...
845
00:54:27,289 --> 00:54:29,288
He was waiting for the sentence after being interrogated.
846
00:54:29,289 --> 00:54:30,906
And they received a report of treason.
847
00:54:31,189 --> 00:54:32,542
It was a treason case.
848
00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:36,580
Wi Byung Ju.
849
00:54:37,170 --> 00:54:38,987
What is he up to now?
850
00:54:51,009 --> 00:54:52,048
Arrest all of them.
851
00:54:52,049 --> 00:54:53,121
- Yes, sir! - Yes, sir!
852
00:54:54,580 --> 00:54:55,590
Who are you?
853
00:54:56,049 --> 00:54:58,473
Let go. Let go!
854
00:54:58,549 --> 00:55:00,338
Let go!
855
00:55:01,390 --> 00:55:02,430
Father!
856
00:55:02,820 --> 00:55:03,870
What are you doing?
857
00:55:04,289 --> 00:55:06,488
What are you doing to my son?
858
00:55:06,489 --> 00:55:08,116
What's going on, Father?
859
00:55:08,199 --> 00:55:09,887
How dare they!
860
00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:17,660
Grandfather, what's going on?
861
00:55:17,939 --> 00:55:20,565
You rascals, stop right there!
862
00:55:20,810 --> 00:55:24,113
You rascals! My grandson would never plot treason.
863
00:55:24,180 --> 00:55:25,522
It's a setup.
864
00:55:26,009 --> 00:55:27,636
I said it's a setup.
865
00:55:27,650 --> 00:55:29,135
Let go of this.
866
00:55:29,580 --> 00:55:30,600
You rascals.
867
00:56:02,249 --> 00:56:04,613
At least drink some water, Your Highness.
868
00:56:06,789 --> 00:56:08,638
I'm worried that...
869
00:56:09,820 --> 00:56:10,901
you might...
870
00:56:12,189 --> 00:56:13,372
harm yourself.
871
00:56:15,330 --> 00:56:16,340
Yi Tan.
872
00:56:27,140 --> 00:56:28,655
You should hold out, Yi Geum.
873
00:56:31,380 --> 00:56:34,045
I have to bring you down in a miserable fashion.
874
00:56:36,049 --> 00:56:38,210
I don't want you to die all of a sudden.
875
00:56:42,560 --> 00:56:43,600
No.
876
00:56:45,330 --> 00:56:47,278
I'll be so sad if that happens.
877
00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:51,791
Worry about yourself.
878
00:56:53,570 --> 00:56:54,610
Prince Mil Poong.
879
00:56:59,209 --> 00:57:00,856
Lest you feel sad,
880
00:57:03,949 --> 00:57:04,989
I will...
881
00:57:07,479 --> 00:57:08,762
kill you.
882
00:57:15,620 --> 00:57:16,630
No matter...
883
00:57:19,430 --> 00:57:20,915
what it takes.
884
00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:29,770
His Majesty arrives.
885
00:57:46,350 --> 00:57:47,470
Your Majesty.
886
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:54,642
I tried...
887
00:57:56,499 --> 00:57:57,914
to trust you.
888
00:58:00,039 --> 00:58:02,059
I tried to think you as my little brother...
889
00:58:03,939 --> 00:58:05,787
instead of my enemy.
890
00:58:12,180 --> 00:58:13,290
But you...
891
00:58:14,779 --> 00:58:16,971
tried to bring a sword to me.
892
00:58:18,489 --> 00:58:21,853
You plotted treason to take the throne!
893
00:59:05,170 --> 00:59:08,339
You tried to kill the king and take the throne.
894
00:59:08,340 --> 00:59:11,938
I order to convene the national court, a special judiciary agency.
895
00:59:11,939 --> 00:59:13,839
The Crown Prince wasn't the son of the late King?
896
00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:15,900
This false news is all over the place.
897
00:59:16,479 --> 00:59:19,177
Why did you do such a wretched thing?
898
00:59:19,350 --> 00:59:21,179
The Crown Prince Palace is where treason began.
899
00:59:21,180 --> 00:59:23,379
Keep searching until the name shows up.
900
00:59:23,380 --> 00:59:25,248
Will the Crown Prince be able to hold out?
901
00:59:25,249 --> 00:59:26,919
We can't let Prince Mil Poong get his way.
902
00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:28,488
I will win this war he began...
903
00:59:28,489 --> 00:59:30,348
no matter what.
