1
00:00:00,037 --> 00:00:04,475
Queen Seon Deok

00:00:00,037 --> 00:00:04,475
Episode 50
3
00:00:08,479 --> 00:00:09,629
He is my son.
4
00:00:09,790 --> 00:00:12,143
Wh...Wh...What?!
5
00:00:12,390 --> 00:00:14,079
What did you say?
6
00:00:14,178 --> 00:00:18,702
Wh...What...
Si...Sister...
7
00:00:19,246 --> 00:00:24,238
Bidam is the son borne out
of my union with King Jinji,
8
00:00:24,451 --> 00:00:26,292
Hyeongjong.
9
00:00:41,396 --> 00:00:43,725
Between Mishil and me...
10
00:00:48,555 --> 00:00:50,766
there is no relation whatsoever.
11
00:00:54,447 --> 00:00:55,940
Is that so?
12
00:00:58,944 --> 00:01:00,147
Yes.
13
00:01:01,486 --> 00:01:02,697
Just as I told you,
14
00:01:02,970 --> 00:01:04,843
the only reason I went to
Daeya Fortress was...
15
00:01:04,994 --> 00:01:06,242
No need.
16
00:01:08,367 --> 00:01:12,050
If you say so, I will believe you.
17
00:01:21,367 --> 00:01:23,668
~ Episode 50 ~
18
00:01:29,926 --> 00:01:31,027
Bidam...
19
00:01:32,397 --> 00:01:34,368
Why did he deceive me?
20
00:01:42,394 --> 00:01:45,340
{\a6}~ Daeya Fortress ~
21
00:01:44,173 --> 00:01:46,347
The western gates, the eastern ones...
22
00:01:46,516 --> 00:01:48,023
and the northern ones here.
23
00:01:50,344 --> 00:01:54,366
I deployed forces equally
between the three gates.
24
00:01:54,479 --> 00:01:57,406
There are 2,500 seom of supplies
left inside the fortress.
25
00:01:57,557 --> 00:01:59,157
Even without any aid from the outside,
26
00:01:59,185 --> 00:02:00,832
we will be self-sufficient
for at least a year.
27
00:02:01,529 --> 00:02:06,536
Also, should even only one of the
governors who received our pleas...
28
00:02:06,705 --> 00:02:09,488
decide to act, many others
will follow him afterwards.
29
00:02:09,611 --> 00:02:11,154
Yes, should that happen,
30
00:02:11,220 --> 00:02:14,910
our influence in Daeya Fortress
would grow exponentially.
31
00:02:15,371 --> 00:02:18,674
I shall send another appeal
to the governors.
32
00:02:21,921 --> 00:02:23,295
Your Highness.
33
00:02:23,545 --> 00:02:25,281
Are you heeding my words?
34
00:02:25,599 --> 00:02:27,003
Ahh... yes.
35
00:02:27,878 --> 00:02:29,684
Act as suggested.
36
00:02:41,164 --> 00:02:46,321
Then, are you suggesting
we instigate a civil war?
37
00:02:46,387 --> 00:02:48,175
We are already facing it.
38
00:02:48,251 --> 00:02:50,284
Is there any other way?
39
00:02:50,792 --> 00:02:51,849
Still,
40
00:02:52,463 --> 00:02:54,739
Daeya Fortress is nearly inexpugnable.
41
00:02:54,852 --> 00:02:57,195
It has never been infiltrated before.
42
00:02:57,289 --> 00:02:59,755
That is why we must
overwhelm them with numbers,
43
00:02:59,887 --> 00:03:02,450
and stage an all-out offensive,
catching them by surprise.
44
00:03:02,968 --> 00:03:05,725
And where would you find
enough troops to "overwhelm" them?
45
00:03:05,963 --> 00:03:09,029
Even if we unite Lord Jujin
and Lord Jinhwa's troops,
46
00:03:09,170 --> 00:03:10,977
numbers would only amount
to ten thousand men at best.
47
00:03:14,708 --> 00:03:19,895
You will pardon me, but may I
suggest the border defense troops?
48
00:03:21,152 --> 00:03:22,327
We cannot use them.
49
00:03:22,393 --> 00:03:23,936
It is out of the question.
50
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,264
Why?
51
00:03:25,566 --> 00:03:28,869
Is that not the only way to end
this conflict before it even starts?
52
00:03:28,963 --> 00:03:31,447
No... It is inadmissible.
53
00:03:31,925 --> 00:03:34,260
We shall never remove
those men from the border.
54
00:03:34,561 --> 00:03:36,876
Losing our frontline at
the border with Baekje...
55
00:03:37,685 --> 00:03:41,262
would be much more dangerous
than our current impasse.
56
00:03:41,460 --> 00:03:42,890
However, Your Highness,
57
00:03:43,540 --> 00:03:47,587
Mishil might use those troops herself.
58
00:03:47,719 --> 00:03:48,717
No...
59
00:03:49,658 --> 00:03:54,019
Mishil will not remove those men
from the frontline, either.
60
00:03:54,926 --> 00:03:58,189
Yes... We shall never remove
those troops from the front.
61
00:04:00,432 --> 00:04:06,312
Losing our balance that way
would only spell this nation's downfall.
62
00:04:06,613 --> 00:04:07,949
But, Your Highness.
63
00:04:08,392 --> 00:04:12,053
It is the only way to conclude
this conflict with a single strike.
64
00:04:12,399 --> 00:04:14,095
Yes, Mother!
65
00:04:14,189 --> 00:04:18,613
Deploying a single battalion from the
border would end everything in our favor!
66
00:04:18,707 --> 00:04:20,420
I said no!
67
00:04:21,314 --> 00:04:24,804
Nobody shall make
any such imprudent move.
68
00:04:27,338 --> 00:04:32,806
You shall neither contact them
nor deploy any troops away from there.
69
00:04:33,644 --> 00:04:35,479
Is that clear?
70
00:04:58,938 --> 00:05:00,715
Are you struggling?
71
00:05:03,192 --> 00:05:04,433
Do you...
72
00:05:05,242 --> 00:05:07,972
think we cannot escape
from this internal conflict?
73
00:05:10,673 --> 00:05:12,480
Does war daunt you?
74
00:05:12,574 --> 00:05:17,026
Or are you concerned about
its possible aftermath?
75
00:05:22,349 --> 00:05:25,129
It would bring forth terrible consequences.
76
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,525
And plenty of efforts and resources
would be required to...
77
00:05:29,656 --> 00:05:31,972
bring us out of such crisis.
78
00:05:33,675 --> 00:05:35,548
Would there be anything as lamentable...
79
00:05:36,188 --> 00:05:41,496
as having to fight my
own people on my native soil?
80
00:05:42,472 --> 00:05:45,865
A purge is on the horizon,
81
00:05:46,873 --> 00:05:50,712
so Daeya Fortress will see an
arduous and protracted war.
82
00:05:57,479 --> 00:05:58,900
Your Highness.
83
00:06:02,989 --> 00:06:04,752
Go ahead and tell her.
84
00:06:05,358 --> 00:06:07,512
It's your idea, why are you asking me?
85
00:06:08,513 --> 00:06:09,837
What is the matter?
86
00:06:09,978 --> 00:06:12,258
Yes... that...
87
00:06:12,698 --> 00:06:15,486
We thought about this matter.
88
00:06:16,161 --> 00:06:20,931
When the Qin attacked the Wei,
89
00:06:21,018 --> 00:06:22,565
they made reservoirs explode,
90
00:06:22,646 --> 00:06:26,806
completely inundating Daliang*.
91
00:06:22,646 --> 00:06:26,815
{\a6}*Old Wei capital, current
Kaifeng, Henan Province
92
00:06:27,043 --> 00:06:31,418
So we thought we could
do the same with Hwang River.
93
00:06:31,766 --> 00:06:33,884
How could you do that now?
94
00:06:34,034 --> 00:06:35,550
It is not even the rainy season,
95
00:06:35,663 --> 00:06:38,317
and the water level is nowhere near
what we would need for a flood.
96
00:06:40,086 --> 00:06:41,931
See? I told you it would not work.
97
00:06:42,025 --> 00:06:45,733
Ahh... So there isn't enough water.
98
00:06:46,006 --> 00:06:47,352
What a shame.
99
00:06:47,408 --> 00:06:50,966
Most of the rivers in the Three Kingdoms...
100
00:06:51,070 --> 00:06:53,225
flow from the east to the west.
101
00:06:53,319 --> 00:06:55,926
And we are east of Daeya Fortress.
102
00:06:56,020 --> 00:06:58,514
So this was the perfect place, perfect.
103
00:06:58,646 --> 00:07:00,698
What a shame, ahh...
104
00:07:00,745 --> 00:07:03,183
There isn't enough water, you heard.
105
00:07:03,785 --> 00:07:05,233
My apologies.
106
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:06,561
Don't say that.
107
00:07:06,731 --> 00:07:09,997
Whenever anything comes
to mind, let me know.
108
00:07:11,399 --> 00:07:12,940
A moment.
109
00:07:15,091 --> 00:07:16,425
What did you say?
110
00:07:16,682 --> 00:07:18,028
Uh?
111
00:07:18,727 --> 00:07:20,503
That there isn't enough water?!
112
00:07:21,253 --> 00:07:22,432
No...
113
00:07:22,658 --> 00:07:23,948
Not that.
114
00:07:25,435 --> 00:07:28,974
That we are on the east coast.
115
00:07:33,473 --> 00:07:34,329
Your Highness.
116
00:07:34,404 --> 00:07:37,444
There is a way to achieve our goals.
117
00:07:38,465 --> 00:07:39,976
May you follow me.
118
00:07:48,145 --> 00:07:54,875
Seems like my words created
another brilliant stratagem.
119
00:07:56,249 --> 00:07:58,913
"We are on the east coast."
120
00:07:59,258 --> 00:08:01,272
The east...
121
00:08:03,503 --> 00:08:05,159
{\a6}*Old Nakdong River
122
00:08:03,503 --> 00:08:05,159
With the exception of Hwangsan River*,
123
00:08:05,187 --> 00:08:08,067
all rivers in the Three Kingdoms
flow from east to west.
124
00:08:08,698 --> 00:08:12,623
The same goes for all
rivers and lakes in the area.
125
00:08:13,734 --> 00:08:15,719
Are you suggesting
we flood Daeya Fortress?
126
00:08:16,275 --> 00:08:17,555
In this season?
127
00:08:18,001 --> 00:08:21,601
No, the exact opposite.
128
00:08:25,366 --> 00:08:26,656
Exactly here.
129
00:08:26,853 --> 00:08:29,696
We will create a huge watercourse
headed for Daeya Fortress.
130
00:08:29,846 --> 00:08:31,917
They might have plenty of supplies,
131
00:08:32,105 --> 00:08:33,287
but should they find
themselves lacking water,
132
00:08:33,353 --> 00:08:35,038
what would possibly happen?
133
00:08:36,732 --> 00:08:40,421
But finding all the tributaries
which connect with Daeya Fortress...
134
00:08:40,648 --> 00:08:42,648
would be quite the task.
135
00:08:44,163 --> 00:08:45,014
Yes.
136
00:08:46,153 --> 00:08:52,120
We will fill those small tributaries
with an immense amount of poison.
137
00:09:01,604 --> 00:09:05,777
Then, all it would take to see Daeya
Fortress exhaust all its water reserves...
138
00:09:05,984 --> 00:09:09,607
is a mere fortnight.
139
00:09:10,434 --> 00:09:12,130
In just a fortnight,
140
00:09:12,751 --> 00:09:17,184
Daeya Fortress will be
sweltered by the flames of hell.
141
00:09:18,684 --> 00:09:19,654
Your Highness.
142
00:09:20,148 --> 00:09:23,494
If we do so, many lands in
Daeya Fortress will become...
143
00:09:23,531 --> 00:09:25,517
inhospitable for years.
144
00:09:26,016 --> 00:09:28,755
Think of all the refugees
this would create.
145
00:09:29,153 --> 00:09:33,461
Will you once again deal with
their vengeful grief with fear?
146
00:09:42,353 --> 00:09:43,418
Your Highness.
147
00:09:43,625 --> 00:09:45,451
May you reconsider.
148
00:09:45,865 --> 00:09:48,256
Daeya Fortress is your land as well.
149
00:09:51,305 --> 00:09:52,727
Your Highness!
150
00:09:54,685 --> 00:09:55,569
Yes.
151
00:09:55,729 --> 00:09:59,767
I myself have no intention...
152
00:10:01,384 --> 00:10:03,287
of acting as Bidam suggested.
153
00:10:13,763 --> 00:10:16,361
Have you seen the look on
Bidam Rang's face?
154
00:10:16,521 --> 00:10:19,665
I must have suggested to him
some sort of stratagem?!
155
00:10:20,220 --> 00:10:21,585
What stratagem?
156
00:10:22,263 --> 00:10:24,503
He doesn't know either.
157
00:10:24,616 --> 00:10:26,432
Despite all the stratagems
he's responsible for,
158
00:10:26,479 --> 00:10:28,371
he never has the slightest idea
what they're all about.
159
00:10:28,540 --> 00:10:29,355
Right!
160
00:10:29,688 --> 00:10:32,352
You're the first to speak,
161
00:10:32,620 --> 00:10:34,940
but know nothing about stratagems.
162
00:10:35,054 --> 00:10:38,526
Then, was Bidam Rang the one
you helped with your words?
163
00:10:39,541 --> 00:10:42,552
The look on his face
was saying "exactly that,"
164
00:10:42,599 --> 00:10:43,879
to that extent.
165
00:10:44,364 --> 00:10:47,276
What did I ever suggest to him?
166
00:10:47,408 --> 00:10:51,860
Yes, I shall not follow Bidam's suggestion.
167
00:10:51,954 --> 00:10:56,246
Yet, I will also follow it.
168
00:10:59,046 --> 00:11:00,340
Exactly.
169
00:11:02,706 --> 00:11:07,248
By now, our enemy will be
aware of Bidam's stratagem.
170
00:11:09,104 --> 00:11:13,347
You alert your foes on a military secret?!
171
00:11:15,498 --> 00:11:20,152
Just blocking waterways and
talebearing on our spreading poison...
172
00:11:21,093 --> 00:11:25,190
will suffice to turn Daeya Fortress
into a living hell in just a fortnight.
173
00:11:36,058 --> 00:11:37,262
Your Highness.
174
00:11:40,858 --> 00:11:42,646
You're having a parley with Mishil?
175
00:11:43,747 --> 00:11:46,496
We found a way to force
Mishil into a corner,
176
00:11:46,674 --> 00:11:48,886
so why would you ever meet
with the root of all our problems?
177
00:11:49,821 --> 00:11:53,780
Forcing her into a corner was what
we needed to have a parley with her.
178
00:11:54,523 --> 00:11:57,636
She will not easily accept
any proposal, so...
179
00:11:57,683 --> 00:12:01,023
For proposal, you mean...
180
00:12:05,768 --> 00:12:09,522
Convey this message to Mishil.
181
00:12:12,430 --> 00:12:13,738
Why...
182
00:12:15,188 --> 00:12:17,758
did you choose me for this task?
183
00:12:21,553 --> 00:12:24,383
You must relay it firsthand.
184
00:12:24,524 --> 00:12:25,954
Is that clear?
185
00:12:36,872 --> 00:12:39,282
~ Daeya Fortress ~
186
00:12:46,115 --> 00:12:47,413
Who is there?
187
00:12:49,192 --> 00:12:50,604
I am an envoy.
188
00:12:50,709 --> 00:12:52,355
Escort me to Her Highness!
189
00:12:53,023 --> 00:12:55,376
- Open the gates!
- Yes!
190
00:13:03,790 --> 00:13:08,411
Did you volunteer
to be sent here and slay me?
191
00:13:16,047 --> 00:13:18,952
Her Highness the princess
wishes for you to read this.
192
00:13:23,263 --> 00:13:24,599
Princess?!
193
00:13:37,349 --> 00:13:40,976
She wants a parley alone with me?!
194
00:13:48,826 --> 00:13:50,858
Unless it is to acknowledge surrender,
195
00:13:50,981 --> 00:13:52,703
I have no reason to meet her.
196
00:13:54,163 --> 00:13:55,357
Why?
197
00:13:56,214 --> 00:13:57,652
Does it daunt you?
198
00:13:59,706 --> 00:14:01,193
Daunt me?!
199
00:14:01,738 --> 00:14:03,489
Meeting Deokman?
200
00:14:05,070 --> 00:14:07,254
Your Highness.
201
00:14:15,075 --> 00:14:18,049
I would like a word with you.
202
00:14:21,211 --> 00:14:22,044
What...
203
00:14:22,665 --> 00:14:26,401
They're blocking all rivers
and poisoning the tributaries?
204
00:14:26,571 --> 00:14:27,521
Yes...
205
00:14:27,935 --> 00:14:33,290
{\a6}*Baekje on the west,
Goguryeo up north
206
00:14:27,935 --> 00:14:33,290
Daeya Fortress has never
faced a foe coming from the east*.
207
00:14:33,393 --> 00:14:37,807
Hence, we could never
predict this weak spot.
208
00:14:42,438 --> 00:14:47,054
Would this not be a
strategic secret for them?
209
00:14:47,492 --> 00:14:48,443
Yes...
210
00:14:48,622 --> 00:14:51,567
Would they not try to spread panic?
211
00:14:51,906 --> 00:14:55,963
Then, they must have sent this on purpose.
212
00:14:58,430 --> 00:15:02,890
So all troops inside the fortress
must be aware as well?!
213
00:15:03,370 --> 00:15:08,659
Yes, by now talebearing will have
spread all around the fortress.
214
00:15:11,558 --> 00:15:13,271
Panic?!
215
00:15:15,964 --> 00:15:18,090
Deokman has no intention to fight.
216
00:15:19,394 --> 00:15:20,292
What?
217
00:15:36,975 --> 00:15:40,386
You first force me into a corner,
and then extend your hands?
218
00:15:46,802 --> 00:15:48,697
Why don't you try?
219
00:15:50,071 --> 00:15:52,443
Blocking rivers and poisoning those waters...
220
00:15:53,036 --> 00:15:56,593
Think that will move me to fear Deokman?
221
00:15:58,510 --> 00:16:05,610
If you truly don't fear her, it is
by meeting her that you will prove it.
222
00:16:09,431 --> 00:16:14,641
I will try to reconcile
with her, and join forces.
223
00:16:14,815 --> 00:16:15,887
What?
224
00:16:17,478 --> 00:16:18,720
Your Highness.
225
00:16:19,163 --> 00:16:20,819
What are you talking about?
226
00:16:21,045 --> 00:16:22,965
Did they not stage an insurrection?
227
00:16:23,106 --> 00:16:26,062
Our country has its own
great endeavors to fulfill.
228
00:16:26,495 --> 00:16:28,349
It is an alliance for
the sake of such endeavors.
229
00:16:28,556 --> 00:16:29,864
{\a6}*Hezong, the union by
Six Warring States to fend off the Qin
230
00:16:28,556 --> 00:16:29,865
An alliance*?!
231
00:16:30,109 --> 00:16:33,604
We will use this stratagem
to force Mishil into a corner.
232
00:16:33,991 --> 00:16:37,169
If you use this opportunity
to fight her, we will triumph.
233
00:16:37,592 --> 00:16:40,340
Yes, it is out of the question.
234
00:16:40,594 --> 00:16:41,950
And it would be unfeasible.
235
00:16:42,034 --> 00:16:45,423
If a conflict is what
she wants, she will get one.
236
00:16:45,526 --> 00:16:51,136
But purging Mishil's followers
alone will take years.
237
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:57,442
And bringing the system back to normality...
238
00:16:57,874 --> 00:17:00,463
might take entire decades.
239
00:17:00,694 --> 00:17:02,166
But, Your Highness.
240
00:17:02,940 --> 00:17:06,693
Would an alliance with Mishil be possible?
241
00:17:12,651 --> 00:17:13,922
What?
242
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:15,766
An alliance?!
243
00:17:16,111 --> 00:17:20,322
Her Highness already
sent an envoy to notify Mishil.
244
00:17:21,164 --> 00:17:25,159
What... What on earth is she thinking?
245
00:17:43,068 --> 00:17:43,992
I...
246
00:17:45,232 --> 00:17:50,176
am doing my best to help your
vision and wishes come true.
247
00:17:52,458 --> 00:17:54,449
And I will continue to do so.
248
00:17:56,972 --> 00:17:58,044
But...
249
00:17:59,431 --> 00:18:01,319
I am not sure about this.
250
00:18:03,034 --> 00:18:04,838
Is it even feasible?
251
00:18:05,723 --> 00:18:06,749
No...
252
00:18:07,436 --> 00:18:09,290
Should we even do so?
253
00:18:11,276 --> 00:18:16,001
What did you say was our most urgent need?
254
00:18:19,295 --> 00:18:23,342
We have no experience in leading a country.
255
00:18:23,568 --> 00:18:25,685
But Mishil's people do.
256
00:18:26,391 --> 00:18:30,071
Yes... What we most urgently require now...
257
00:18:30,184 --> 00:18:31,996
are people.
258
00:18:34,132 --> 00:18:35,352
You are not thinking...
259
00:18:36,491 --> 00:18:37,959
You wouldn't, Your Highness?!
260
00:18:38,665 --> 00:18:39,907
You are not thinking...
261
00:18:40,161 --> 00:18:42,778
Yes, I am.
262
00:18:43,503 --> 00:18:49,037
You think Mishil is part of that?
263
00:18:50,486 --> 00:18:55,051
Is there anyone like Mishil in Seorabeol?
264
00:19:27,382 --> 00:19:30,665
{\a6}*1 ri = 393m
265
00:19:27,382 --> 00:19:30,665
We agreed to keep troops
at least ten ri* away from here.
266
00:19:32,990 --> 00:19:37,696
Yushin and Alcheon are
standing by with a thousand troops.
267
00:21:13,407 --> 00:21:15,004
An alliance?!
268
00:21:16,246 --> 00:21:17,206
Yes.
269
00:21:17,714 --> 00:21:21,159
I wish for this alliance
to bring forth reconciliation.
270
00:21:21,639 --> 00:21:22,703
And why?
271
00:21:23,465 --> 00:21:27,738
Did you not exploit Daeya Fortress's
weakest spot with your stratagems?
272
00:21:28,801 --> 00:21:32,730
Wouldn't letting your rebel troops
infiltrate the fort and kill me suffice?
273
00:21:33,399 --> 00:21:36,495
Your talents are much too
valuable to be wasted that way.
274
00:21:38,039 --> 00:21:39,678
Valuable?!
275
00:21:40,666 --> 00:21:43,188
Grandiose achievements
still await our country.
276
00:21:43,292 --> 00:21:47,371
Hence, I am looking for
talented people all over.
277
00:21:48,030 --> 00:21:51,804
Yes, I do boast quite
the remarkable retinue.
278
00:21:51,936 --> 00:21:53,554
Who are you interested in?
279
00:21:54,249 --> 00:21:55,540
Lord Seolwon?
280
00:21:55,980 --> 00:21:57,216
Or Lord Misaeng?
281
00:21:57,709 --> 00:21:58,863
Chilsuk...
282
00:22:05,059 --> 00:22:06,204
Your Highness.
283
00:22:07,412 --> 00:22:08,340
Yes.
284
00:22:09,568 --> 00:22:11,559
The talent I wish to have by my side...
285
00:22:14,447 --> 00:22:15,936
is none other than you,
286
00:22:17,004 --> 00:22:18,232
Mishil.
287
00:22:24,901 --> 00:22:30,316
Will you agree to serve my cause?
288
00:22:33,403 --> 00:22:36,857
You have no chance
of winning this conflict.
289
00:22:36,980 --> 00:22:40,872
Then, should you
not plan for your future?
290
00:22:43,003 --> 00:22:48,386
And that future you mention
would include joining your side?
291
00:22:49,602 --> 00:22:53,582
If it sounds vexatious,
we can think of it on these terms.
292
00:22:54,354 --> 00:22:56,020
You will foster your successor.
293
00:22:58,715 --> 00:23:01,243
If you cannot gain
possession of this country,
294
00:23:01,629 --> 00:23:07,135
how would helping the
successor who will rule it sound?
295
00:23:16,076 --> 00:23:21,271
Rule... Rule?!
296
00:23:48,161 --> 00:23:53,158
So I will never rule
this land, you're saying?
297
00:23:54,335 --> 00:23:55,841
Unless you found your own dynasty,
298
00:23:56,029 --> 00:23:57,441
there is no chance.
299
00:23:57,554 --> 00:24:00,810
But your foundation attempts clearly failed.
300
00:24:01,996 --> 00:24:08,622
Now, there is no way you will
become our heavenly kingdom's ruler.
301
00:24:12,264 --> 00:24:13,497
Ruler?!
302
00:24:15,973 --> 00:24:17,460
Heavenly kingdom...
303
00:24:26,184 --> 00:24:27,587
Jeongcheon County...
304
00:24:28,010 --> 00:24:29,375
Dosal Fortress.
305
00:24:29,751 --> 00:24:31,013
Handasa County.
306
00:24:31,107 --> 00:24:32,500
Sokham Fortress.
307
00:24:35,353 --> 00:24:37,960
Know where any of these places are?
308
00:24:43,165 --> 00:24:48,558
Are they not our southernmost,
northernmost and westernmost borders?
309
00:24:49,424 --> 00:24:50,340
No...
310
00:24:51,252 --> 00:24:52,505
They are not.
311
00:24:56,273 --> 00:24:59,902
They are places drenched in my own blood.
312
00:25:02,653 --> 00:25:04,975
The compeers I cherished,
313
00:25:06,050 --> 00:25:07,366
the Hwarang...
314
00:25:07,949 --> 00:25:09,308
and troops.
315
00:25:12,058 --> 00:25:14,070
Therein still lie their remains,
316
00:25:14,343 --> 00:25:16,162
not even granted an honorable burial.
317
00:25:21,108 --> 00:25:23,633
That is Shilla!
318
00:25:24,602 --> 00:25:29,707
The frontier land of this great nation
King Jinheung and I conquered!
319
00:25:30,745 --> 00:25:34,840
Heavenly kingdom... Ruler?!
320
00:25:39,043 --> 00:25:40,709
And what would you know?
321
00:25:44,978 --> 00:25:47,683
Just as my heart was filled
with devotion for Sadaham,
322
00:25:48,013 --> 00:25:49,651
I cherished this nation with all my heart.
323
00:25:50,752 --> 00:25:54,432
So fervently I cherished it,
I merely wanted to possess it.
324
00:25:57,232 --> 00:25:58,338
Your Highness...
325
00:25:59,599 --> 00:26:01,453
Alliance, you said?
326
00:26:02,763 --> 00:26:03,985
A coalition?!
327
00:26:07,307 --> 00:26:08,389
Deokman.
328
00:26:08,615 --> 00:26:13,481
Could you share your
devotion with anyone else?
329
00:26:39,488 --> 00:26:40,700
Your Highness.
330
00:26:48,841 --> 00:26:49,839
Your Highness.
331
00:26:50,375 --> 00:26:51,593
How did it go?
332
00:27:01,914 --> 00:27:02,978
Your Highness.
333
00:27:03,700 --> 00:27:05,923
I will talk to Mishil myself.
334
00:27:06,472 --> 00:27:08,013
I request your consent.
335
00:27:24,538 --> 00:27:26,695
I must talk with Her Highness.
336
00:27:26,921 --> 00:27:28,462
What is the matter?
337
00:27:49,812 --> 00:27:51,665
Did the negotiations break down?
338
00:27:52,467 --> 00:27:54,121
Ask Deokman.
339
00:27:54,582 --> 00:27:57,613
Do you still believe
you can vanquish her?
340
00:27:58,761 --> 00:28:02,469
The conclusion is already written.
341
00:28:04,007 --> 00:28:05,999
Even if it shall herald my failure,
342
00:28:07,006 --> 00:28:09,923
your triumph will be laden
with fierce resistance on my part.
343
00:28:14,999 --> 00:28:16,935
Why must it end this way?
344
00:28:17,387 --> 00:28:19,156
Because there is no
reason why it should not.
345
00:28:24,378 --> 00:28:25,390
Then...
346
00:28:25,914 --> 00:28:27,523
How about this?
347
00:28:33,084 --> 00:28:34,987
I trust you know what this is?
348
00:28:35,749 --> 00:28:40,700
In the end...
It found its keeper.
349
00:28:49,354 --> 00:28:52,625
This was in Her Highness's hands.
350
00:28:54,385 --> 00:28:56,022
I stole it from her.
351
00:28:56,540 --> 00:28:57,876
You stole it?!
352
00:28:58,055 --> 00:28:59,298
Why?
353
00:29:00,258 --> 00:29:04,709
If you revealed that,
this all would be over already.
354
00:29:05,566 --> 00:29:07,740
Stop pretending to be strong!
355
00:29:08,079 --> 00:29:09,713
The longer this conflict protracts itself,
356
00:29:09,807 --> 00:29:13,779
the more people will join my side.
357
00:29:16,226 --> 00:29:17,355
So...
358
00:29:17,835 --> 00:29:19,360
Why...
359
00:29:20,913 --> 00:29:22,278
Why steal it?
360
00:29:23,068 --> 00:29:24,461
Why?
361
00:29:25,779 --> 00:29:27,567
What is the reason?
362
00:29:31,348 --> 00:29:36,179
Because it is all too cruel.
363
00:29:44,828 --> 00:29:46,071
Mother...
364
00:29:47,379 --> 00:29:48,970
To you,
365
00:29:53,887 --> 00:29:56,000
this entire life of yours...
366
00:29:56,395 --> 00:29:58,541
was drenched in injustice.
367
00:30:01,337 --> 00:30:09,703
You should have perished many moons past.
368
00:30:19,328 --> 00:30:21,957
May you accept Her Highness's proposal.
369
00:30:22,616 --> 00:30:24,950
If you don't,
370
00:30:27,943 --> 00:30:30,268
I might reveal this to everyone.
371
00:31:48,607 --> 00:31:52,839
Mishil refused my proposal.
372
00:31:58,409 --> 00:32:01,676
From here on in,
we will be on war footing.
373
00:32:02,505 --> 00:32:03,709
Yushin Rang.
374
00:32:03,977 --> 00:32:05,855
Devise plans for a siege offensive.
375
00:32:06,580 --> 00:32:08,216
Yes, Your Highness.
376
00:32:08,455 --> 00:32:11,625
Alcheon Rang.
Block all the Hwang River's waterways.
377
00:32:11,738 --> 00:32:15,643
Then, alert our foes on the matter.
378
00:32:15,738 --> 00:32:16,575
Yes.
379
00:32:17,157 --> 00:32:18,109
Yeomjong.
380
00:32:18,194 --> 00:32:20,171
Contact any informer
you have in Daeya Fortress,
381
00:32:20,246 --> 00:32:21,987
and start spreading talebearing.
382
00:32:22,241 --> 00:32:24,336
That the princess poisoned all waters.
383
00:32:24,383 --> 00:32:25,239
Yes.
384
00:32:25,606 --> 00:32:26,792
Wolya Rang.
385
00:32:26,896 --> 00:32:29,333
Lead the battalion
with Seolji and Jukbang,
386
00:32:29,757 --> 00:32:32,872
observe Daeya Fortress
day and night, and report back.
387
00:32:33,380 --> 00:32:34,343
Yes.
388
00:32:48,272 --> 00:32:49,721
An alliance?!
389
00:32:51,067 --> 00:32:52,968
Al...Alliance?!
390
00:32:53,091 --> 00:32:56,752
Yes, Her Highness refused it.
391
00:32:56,884 --> 00:32:58,138
Ahh... Naturally!
392
00:32:58,237 --> 00:33:01,307
She must be adamant
to deceive and kill us all!
393
00:33:01,731 --> 00:33:05,618
According to Her Highness,
Princess Deokman seemed sincere.
394
00:33:05,731 --> 00:33:07,481
Enough that she would not kill us.
395
00:33:08,027 --> 00:33:09,100
What?
396
00:33:14,974 --> 00:33:16,517
Never you worry.
397
00:33:16,649 --> 00:33:19,067
A strong army is backing us.
398
00:33:20,414 --> 00:33:21,712
Ahh... Yes!
399
00:33:21,759 --> 00:33:27,585
Nobles in the vicinity
have also pledged their troops!
400
00:33:29,797 --> 00:33:31,058
Father.
401
00:33:31,340 --> 00:33:32,498
General Mueun's battalion,
402
00:33:32,526 --> 00:33:34,682
which was defending our stronghold
in Chopalhye Prefecture,
403
00:33:35,030 --> 00:33:37,998
has completely surrendered
to Princess Deokman.
404
00:33:42,399 --> 00:33:43,576
And it does not end there.
405
00:33:43,651 --> 00:33:46,437
Ever since rumors that Her Highness
poisoned waterways started spreading,
406
00:33:46,550 --> 00:33:48,639
the number of deserters
has been on the rise.
407
00:34:28,630 --> 00:34:32,319
So even the water
from this well was poisoned,
408
00:34:32,442 --> 00:34:33,541
is that it?
409
00:34:33,590 --> 00:34:36,790
Should we not run away
before it's too late?
410
00:34:36,884 --> 00:34:38,004
Right...
411
00:34:39,059 --> 00:34:42,691
It's either facing death by poison,
or being executed for desertion.
412
00:34:47,688 --> 00:34:49,496
What are you discussing?
413
00:34:54,823 --> 00:34:57,703
You cannot.
414
00:34:57,778 --> 00:35:01,543
Who knows whether the poison
is affecting it already or not?
415
00:35:02,785 --> 00:35:08,498
Know how much poison it would take
to poison all waterways headed here?
416
00:35:16,752 --> 00:35:21,656
But, because of that,
deserters are on the rise.
417
00:35:22,305 --> 00:35:24,253
If it scares you so much, do the same.
418
00:35:25,373 --> 00:35:30,691
Instead, don't ever let me
catch you while deserting.
419
00:35:32,666 --> 00:35:38,983
Only those willing to support
and assist Her Highness to the end...
420
00:35:41,072 --> 00:35:43,188
will remain here to protect her.
421
00:36:09,856 --> 00:36:12,845
Pungwolju and Chief,
you take the eastern gates.
422
00:36:12,939 --> 00:36:13,673
Yes.
423
00:36:13,757 --> 00:36:15,546
Lord Jujin, the northern gates.
424
00:36:15,649 --> 00:36:17,221
Yes.
Your Highness.
425
00:36:17,315 --> 00:36:21,089
Bidam and Yeomjong,
take your men and a thousand troops,
426
00:36:21,165 --> 00:36:23,150
and gain control of Chopalhye Prefecture.
427
00:36:24,205 --> 00:36:25,315
Yes.
428
00:36:26,184 --> 00:36:32,327
Wolya and Seolji, take the refugee
troops and infiltrate the southern walls.
429
00:36:33,268 --> 00:36:34,463
Yes.
430
00:36:34,753 --> 00:36:40,901
Daeya Fortress will be in disorder
because of the rumors we spread.
431
00:36:41,551 --> 00:36:44,976
Hence, should the first offensive fail,
432
00:36:45,522 --> 00:36:48,167
it still must be a very strong
and overwhelming showing.
433
00:36:49,127 --> 00:36:53,221
We must disrupt our foes' will to fight.
434
00:37:13,374 --> 00:37:17,287
If we get past there,
we'll be out of Daeya Fortress.
435
00:37:18,652 --> 00:37:21,296
If we remain here, we'll just die.
436
00:37:21,343 --> 00:37:23,207
Let us leave!
Uh?
437
00:37:24,063 --> 00:37:26,529
Wait... Ehh...
438
00:37:26,793 --> 00:37:30,727
I... am not coming.
439
00:37:31,903 --> 00:37:34,943
They're using poison
and blocking all the waterways.
440
00:37:35,037 --> 00:37:36,148
It is all over.
441
00:37:36,214 --> 00:37:37,550
Still...
442
00:37:38,705 --> 00:37:40,355
This just doesn't feel right.
443
00:37:40,449 --> 00:37:44,355
I'll go and protect Lady Mishil.
444
00:37:44,788 --> 00:37:45,833
Hey...
445
00:37:46,473 --> 00:37:47,988
I said you can't!
446
00:37:49,173 --> 00:37:50,670
Won't I?
447
00:37:52,700 --> 00:37:56,195
Then, I will at least protect my honor.
448
00:38:04,628 --> 00:38:05,870
So long.
449
00:38:13,692 --> 00:38:15,226
Go ahead and tell me.
450
00:38:15,405 --> 00:38:17,682
What is troubling you?
451
00:38:19,329 --> 00:38:22,962
How to... end this.
452
00:38:23,930 --> 00:38:25,259
Your Highness!
453
00:38:25,823 --> 00:38:26,623
Mother!
454
00:38:26,727 --> 00:38:27,885
Mother!!
455
00:38:28,430 --> 00:38:29,522
Mother...
456
00:38:29,587 --> 00:38:32,062
General Yeo Gilchan of Sokham Fortress...
457
00:38:32,138 --> 00:38:37,314
is leading his entire army here!
458
00:38:41,808 --> 00:38:43,347
Yeo Gilchan!
459
00:38:43,432 --> 00:38:46,865
He's coming here to help you!
460
00:38:54,011 --> 00:38:55,987
{\a6}~ Yeo Gilchan ~
(Lord of Sokham Fortress)
461
00:38:54,011 --> 00:38:55,987
Those who know no shame nor gratitude...
462
00:38:56,222 --> 00:38:58,876
are no different than beasts.
463
00:39:00,403 --> 00:39:02,396
If we do not protect Her Highness,
464
00:39:02,528 --> 00:39:05,211
how could we christen ourselves
as proud men of this country?!
465
00:39:05,371 --> 00:39:07,940
How could we call ourselves warriors?
466
00:39:09,276 --> 00:39:11,262
Let us march, for Daeya Fortress!
467
00:39:11,564 --> 00:39:14,801
Let us go, and protect Her Highness!
468
00:39:48,111 --> 00:39:49,154
What?
469
00:39:51,868 --> 00:39:56,251
General Yeo Gilchan is leading his
entire battalion to Daeya Fortress!
470
00:39:58,422 --> 00:39:59,978
And what about Sokham Fortress?
471
00:40:00,081 --> 00:40:02,095
Is it not at the border with Baekje?
472
00:40:02,425 --> 00:40:03,253
Your Highness.
473
00:40:03,441 --> 00:40:06,142
Sokham Fortress has over
twenty thousand elite troops.
474
00:40:08,666 --> 00:40:09,973
Your Highness!
475
00:40:10,246 --> 00:40:14,509
Find out the movements of any Baekje army
in the vicinity of Sokham Fortress.
476
00:40:15,135 --> 00:40:17,351
That is not our most urgent concern!
477
00:40:17,436 --> 00:40:19,573
They will be here in two days!
478
00:40:19,676 --> 00:40:22,434
That is the most pressing issue.
479
00:40:33,004 --> 00:40:35,669
I knew Yeo Gilchan would do this.
480
00:40:35,775 --> 00:40:40,298
Did not his clan benefit from
your benevolence for generations?
481
00:40:40,857 --> 00:40:43,954
It is done.
It is all done!
482
00:40:44,980 --> 00:40:46,975
Should Sokham Fortress's
troops join the fray,
483
00:40:47,050 --> 00:40:49,055
the tides of this war will surely turn.
484
00:40:49,130 --> 00:40:52,158
But now there is a good
possibility that Her Highness...
485
00:40:52,296 --> 00:40:55,003
will summon additional frontier troops.
486
00:40:55,088 --> 00:40:58,194
Ehhh... Before she can do that,
we can just slaughter them all,
487
00:40:58,269 --> 00:41:01,497
and regain control of the capital.
Ehh...
488
00:41:02,940 --> 00:41:04,189
Your Highness.
489
00:41:04,792 --> 00:41:06,674
How do you plan to proceed?
490
00:41:08,293 --> 00:41:10,664
The Baekje army stationed
west of Sokham Fortress...
491
00:41:11,144 --> 00:41:13,676
is made of Yoon Chung's elite troops.
492
00:41:14,354 --> 00:41:16,923
Find out the Baekje army's
movements to start with.
493
00:41:17,121 --> 00:41:18,053
Yes.
494
00:41:19,107 --> 00:41:20,189
What?
495
00:41:20,519 --> 00:41:23,417
And... Why would that
be so important now?
496
00:41:23,502 --> 00:41:24,773
It is!
497
00:41:49,392 --> 00:41:50,796
Is it true?
498
00:41:50,984 --> 00:41:53,460
Did the Sokham Fortress army
really deploy for the capital?
499
00:41:53,912 --> 00:41:55,107
It is.
500
00:41:57,584 --> 00:41:58,627
How will you proceed now?
501
00:41:59,530 --> 00:42:04,160
We must either retreat
or prepare for a full offensive.
502
00:42:04,585 --> 00:42:05,949
Perhaps...
503
00:42:06,683 --> 00:42:07,916
Perhaps...
504
00:42:15,205 --> 00:42:16,679
Jeongcheon County...
505
00:42:17,145 --> 00:42:18,420
Dosal Fortress.
506
00:42:18,872 --> 00:42:19,973
Handasa County.
507
00:42:20,161 --> 00:42:21,554
Sokham Fortress.
508
00:42:24,415 --> 00:42:26,794
Know where any of these places are?
509
00:42:28,345 --> 00:42:32,196
They are places drenched in my own blood.
510
00:42:32,347 --> 00:42:35,057
That is Shilla!
511
00:42:38,577 --> 00:42:41,354
Yeo Gilchan's troops
might be forced to withdraw.
512
00:42:42,892 --> 00:42:44,121
What?
513
00:42:45,213 --> 00:42:47,330
And... why?
514
00:42:49,288 --> 00:42:50,408
Mother.
515
00:42:50,747 --> 00:42:53,505
After Yeo Gilchan's troops left,
516
00:42:53,625 --> 00:42:59,020
the Baekje army led by Yoon Chung
attacked the frontier west of Pallyangchi.
517
00:42:59,274 --> 00:43:00,356
What?
518
00:43:01,395 --> 00:43:06,728
Ahh... And why should it concern you,
when our lives are at stake?
519
00:43:07,133 --> 00:43:08,121
Yes.
520
00:43:08,234 --> 00:43:12,516
We must surround Daeya Fortress
and tame our foes' offensive, after which...
521
00:43:12,573 --> 00:43:17,674
Right this moment, send our
fastest man or the fastest horse.
522
00:43:17,966 --> 00:43:18,558
What?
523
00:43:19,829 --> 00:43:21,712
Send him where?
524
00:43:21,803 --> 00:43:24,743
Send an order to Yeo Gilchan.
525
00:43:25,098 --> 00:43:29,198
To immediately withdraw and head back
to Sokham Fortress to defend it.
526
00:43:29,740 --> 00:43:30,719
What?
527
00:43:30,926 --> 00:43:32,780
- And why...
- Your Highness.
528
00:43:32,912 --> 00:43:35,321
Mother, what are you saying?
529
00:43:35,384 --> 00:43:38,465
Deokman's army is right behind the corner!
530
00:43:38,558 --> 00:43:41,410
If we manage to stop them until
Yeo Gilchan's arrival, we shall triumph.
531
00:43:41,476 --> 00:43:42,719
Your Highness.
532
00:43:43,020 --> 00:43:45,096
What are you thinking?
533
00:43:49,410 --> 00:43:52,234
It is... time to stop.
534
00:44:08,356 --> 00:44:11,829
Why would Yeo Gilchan withdraw?
535
00:44:12,942 --> 00:44:16,262
The possibility is very low,
and it might just be a delusion of mine,
536
00:44:16,459 --> 00:44:20,563
but I feel like it could indeed happen.
537
00:44:22,314 --> 00:44:23,509
Why?
538
00:44:28,277 --> 00:44:30,982
Just as my heart was filled
with devotion for Sadaham,
539
00:44:31,264 --> 00:44:33,438
I cherished this nation with all my heart.
540
00:44:33,862 --> 00:44:36,563
That is Shilla!
541
00:44:37,363 --> 00:44:42,707
The frontier land of this great nation
King Jinheung and I conquered!
542
00:44:44,889 --> 00:44:48,578
But for a very brief moment,
543
00:44:49,131 --> 00:44:55,964
I saw a ruler in Mishil's visage.
544
00:44:56,613 --> 00:44:58,298
A true ruler.
545
00:45:10,375 --> 00:45:13,639
Time... Time to stop what?
546
00:45:13,740 --> 00:45:15,746
Mother!
547
00:45:16,895 --> 00:45:18,157
Everything.
548
00:45:19,522 --> 00:45:20,642
Mother...
549
00:45:31,794 --> 00:45:33,470
Wh...Wh...What is that?
550
00:45:33,630 --> 00:45:34,467
What?
551
00:45:34,580 --> 00:45:36,955
What did she mean with that?
552
00:45:37,062 --> 00:45:40,491
Time to stop what? Uh?
553
00:45:57,515 --> 00:46:02,166
Are you telling me these
are Her Highness's orders?
554
00:46:03,371 --> 00:46:07,512
Withdraw, and focus on
defending Sokham Fortress?!
555
00:46:07,917 --> 00:46:12,077
Yes, and according to Her Highness,
556
00:46:12,284 --> 00:46:15,672
this is her very last order.
557
00:46:17,893 --> 00:46:19,578
Your Highness...
558
00:47:32,347 --> 00:47:33,583
Your Highness.
559
00:47:34,411 --> 00:47:37,554
Why did you send Yeo Gilchan back?
560
00:47:39,403 --> 00:47:42,194
Should we lose the frontier by my hands,
561
00:47:42,816 --> 00:47:47,917
I would lose everything to Deokman.
562
00:47:49,873 --> 00:47:53,566
Hence... What?
563
00:47:53,954 --> 00:47:57,230
Hence, it is...
564
00:47:58,623 --> 00:48:00,425
time for me to stop.
565
00:48:03,493 --> 00:48:04,867
Your Highness...
566
00:48:06,656 --> 00:48:09,526
There is no reason to
give it so much weight.
567
00:48:12,923 --> 00:48:19,507
Recall that song from our days
as fellow Hwarang?
568
00:48:21,489 --> 00:48:26,223
"While you still can fight,
fighting is all you need to do."
569
00:48:27,399 --> 00:48:31,126
"And when you no longer can,
protecting it you must."
570
00:48:32,604 --> 00:48:34,166
"When you can no longer protect it,
571
00:48:34,411 --> 00:48:36,754
retreat is all it takes."
572
00:48:37,037 --> 00:48:39,013
"And when retreat is not an option,
573
00:48:39,785 --> 00:48:41,950
surrender is your next best decision."
574
00:48:42,994 --> 00:48:45,253
"Should even surrender prove impossible,"
575
00:48:49,385 --> 00:48:52,905
Should even surrender prove impossible...
576
00:48:57,651 --> 00:49:01,169
On that day,
demise shall be your best compeer.
577
00:49:03,563 --> 00:49:04,933
Your Highness...
578
00:49:06,900 --> 00:49:10,759
Today is that day.
579
00:49:17,729 --> 00:49:19,427
I leave the rest to you,
580
00:49:19,550 --> 00:49:21,310
Lord Seolwon.
581
00:49:21,442 --> 00:49:23,117
I cannot do that.
582
00:49:23,314 --> 00:49:25,329
We will do it together, Your Highness.
583
00:49:26,703 --> 00:49:33,809
These will be my very last
actions, orders, promises and words.
584
00:49:34,531 --> 00:49:36,085
Follow them.
585
00:49:38,796 --> 00:49:41,892
Save all those who followed me,
586
00:49:42,655 --> 00:49:45,045
and lead them in the future.
587
00:49:48,932 --> 00:49:50,090
Why?
588
00:49:52,225 --> 00:49:58,777
Why are you looking back
and worrying about them now?
589
00:50:02,005 --> 00:50:04,857
Why did you let this weaken you?
590
00:50:07,304 --> 00:50:08,862
It did not.
591
00:50:09,860 --> 00:50:11,761
Many chapters filled my strategy,
592
00:50:12,570 --> 00:50:15,312
and this is merely the final one.
593
00:50:34,234 --> 00:50:35,796
Lord Seolwon,
594
00:50:37,218 --> 00:50:39,062
accept my apologies.
595
00:50:54,616 --> 00:50:55,439
What?
596
00:50:55,542 --> 00:50:56,615
Withdraw?!
597
00:50:57,067 --> 00:50:59,091
Yeo Gilchan is retreating?
598
00:51:00,421 --> 00:51:02,545
They were heading back
to Sokham Fortress.
599
00:51:03,100 --> 00:51:06,987
It must be to stop
Yoon Chung's Baekje army.
600
00:51:11,251 --> 00:51:12,634
What is going on?
601
00:51:13,105 --> 00:51:15,740
Why would they retreat with
Daeya Fortress behind the corner?
602
00:51:15,909 --> 00:51:18,008
Couldn't there be another
subterfuge behind this?
603
00:51:18,949 --> 00:51:22,601
No, there will be none.
604
00:51:23,519 --> 00:51:27,279
Mishil, perhaps...
605
00:51:28,916 --> 00:51:30,178
Perhaps...
606
00:51:47,411 --> 00:51:51,269
Convey to all nobles in the vicinity
who pledged their support to turn back.
607
00:51:51,495 --> 00:51:58,059
Also, tell Chilsuk in Chopalhye
Prefecture to withdraw immediately.
608
00:51:59,523 --> 00:52:00,578
Yes.
609
00:52:01,989 --> 00:52:03,241
Also...
610
00:52:03,872 --> 00:52:06,366
I leave all following arrangements to you.
611
00:52:33,257 --> 00:52:34,862
There!
612
00:52:37,151 --> 00:52:39,109
What is that?
613
00:52:57,481 --> 00:53:01,152
~ Chopalhye Prefecture ~
614
00:53:15,750 --> 00:53:17,415
Are these truly Her Highness's orders?
615
00:53:17,462 --> 00:53:19,693
Yes, I received them firsthand.
616
00:53:21,909 --> 00:53:23,241
Withdraw?!
617
00:53:25,425 --> 00:53:27,072
What could have happened?
618
00:53:31,035 --> 00:53:35,203
Her Highness is putting an end to this.
619
00:53:36,606 --> 00:53:38,027
An end?!
620
00:53:40,399 --> 00:53:41,528
Your Highness.
621
00:53:41,726 --> 00:53:43,646
If Yeo Gilchan is truly retreating,
622
00:53:43,768 --> 00:53:46,309
should we not revert to our original plans?
623
00:53:46,507 --> 00:53:49,395
Yes, we have no time to squander.
624
00:53:49,491 --> 00:53:50,554
Your Highness.
625
00:53:55,787 --> 00:53:57,208
In Daeya Fortress...
626
00:53:57,443 --> 00:53:59,072
Right now at Daeya Fortress...
627
00:55:48,608 --> 00:55:53,084
I kneel before you without conditions.
628
00:55:55,704 --> 00:55:58,799
We all disarmed ourselves.
629
00:56:02,805 --> 00:56:05,952
Where is Her Highness?
630
00:56:07,213 --> 00:56:09,180
She is waiting for you.
631
00:57:02,893 --> 00:57:04,860
So this was it?
632
00:57:07,857 --> 00:57:10,168
If it was this, then why?
633
00:57:12,427 --> 00:57:13,556
Why?
634
00:57:14,178 --> 00:57:17,942
Do not scream.
635
00:57:22,281 --> 00:57:26,159
{\a6}*15 minutes
636
00:57:22,281 --> 00:57:26,159
I only have about one gak* left.
637
00:57:32,178 --> 00:57:33,396
So...
638
00:57:36,041 --> 00:57:40,916
Should I call you "Mother" at least once?
639
00:57:44,098 --> 00:57:46,526
Or are you going to apologize...
640
00:57:48,358 --> 00:57:50,116
Apologize for abandoning me?
641
00:57:51,754 --> 00:57:53,489
Or at least...
642
00:57:55,903 --> 00:58:00,817
deep down your soul,
admitting that you cherished me?
643
00:58:04,207 --> 00:58:07,490
There is no such thing for me.
644
00:58:08,853 --> 00:58:10,716
And you need not call me Mother.
645
00:58:11,285 --> 00:58:12,777
I need not apologize for anything.
646
00:58:14,085 --> 00:58:15,849
And... cherish you?!
647
00:58:19,303 --> 00:58:23,557
What do you think love is?
648
00:58:24,940 --> 00:58:26,588
Love means...
649
00:58:28,653 --> 00:58:31,303
stealing without reserve or regret.
650
00:58:31,623 --> 00:58:33,110
That is what love is.
651
00:58:34,117 --> 00:58:38,221
If you truly love Deokman,
that is what you must do.
652
00:58:40,854 --> 00:58:43,792
Devotion... Just cause...
653
00:58:44,312 --> 00:58:46,079
and this Shilla of ours.
654
00:58:46,766 --> 00:58:50,042
None of them can be
shared with anyone else.
655
00:58:51,322 --> 00:58:54,230
Not with Yushin, nor with Chunchu,
656
00:58:54,724 --> 00:58:56,206
nor anyone else.
657
00:58:57,176 --> 00:58:59,077
Is that clear?
658
00:59:20,159 --> 00:59:25,016
I will take care of
whom I cherish on my own.
659
00:59:26,045 --> 00:59:28,225
I was just concerned about it.
660
00:59:29,336 --> 00:59:33,609
I tried to gain the throne
by gaining people's hearts.
661
00:59:33,722 --> 00:59:35,661
However, you...
662
00:59:36,414 --> 00:59:38,748
You are trying to gain this country
to gain people's hearts.
663
00:59:39,246 --> 00:59:43,576
And when that is your goal,
danger is inevitable.
664
00:59:43,783 --> 00:59:50,672
Princess Deokman might be a person,
but she also represents Shilla.
665
00:59:52,338 --> 00:59:54,597
Because I will make sure she does.
666
00:59:56,666 --> 01:00:00,562
With that feeble and fragile
devotion only people can foment,
667
01:00:01,183 --> 01:00:04,153
what a most innocent dream
you are aspiring for.
668
01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:23,211
Is Deokman still far?
669
01:00:37,541 --> 01:00:39,513
She is here.
670
01:00:42,375 --> 01:00:44,040
Await here.
671
01:01:33,056 --> 01:01:34,609
Your Highness.
672
01:01:52,917 --> 01:01:54,294
Mishil.
673
01:01:55,509 --> 01:01:58,781
Were it not for you, I...
674
01:01:59,908 --> 01:02:02,349
might have not made anything out of myself.
675
01:02:07,583 --> 01:02:11,809
I salute Mishil...
676
01:02:12,585 --> 01:02:14,076
and her legacy.
683
01:02:43,461 --> 01:02:46,894
~ On The Next Episode Of ~
QUEEN ~*~ SEONDEOK
684
01:02:46,951 --> 01:02:52,168
People can lack dexterity.
People can...
685
01:02:52,278 --> 01:02:56,099
But my people cannot.
686
01:02:56,212 --> 01:03:00,871
- For breathing your last breath...
- For even if I gained everything else,
687
01:03:01,069 --> 01:03:03,045
not becoming Queen would
have made it meaningless.
688
01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:04,654
Forgive me, my child.
689
01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:06,537
You are no longer of any use to me.
690
01:03:06,621 --> 01:03:09,784
Just a slight frown,
and you will look stronger.
691
01:03:09,859 --> 01:03:12,032
There are no males of sacred bone.
692
01:03:12,344 --> 01:03:13,972
It was... because of you.
693
01:03:14,029 --> 01:03:15,208
Run away.
694
01:03:15,348 --> 01:03:16,895
I killed them all.
695
01:03:16,974 --> 01:03:20,240
You did so much more than I ever did!
696
01:03:20,607 --> 01:03:23,924
I need the heavens to be on my side.
697
01:03:24,156 --> 01:03:27,657
Seen this way, only two options are left.
698
01:03:27,781 --> 01:03:29,028
My embrace?!
699
01:03:29,087 --> 01:03:29,887
My embrace?!
700
01:03:29,944 --> 01:03:35,101
Or overwhelmed by unyielding spirit...
To that extent?
701
01:03:35,186 --> 01:03:37,633
Why could I have not
been born of sacred bone?
702
01:03:37,699 --> 01:03:39,665
"Should even surrender prove impossible,"
704
01:03:40,071 --> 01:03:43,099
on that day, demise
shall be your best compeer.
705
01:03:43,306 --> 01:03:47,203
Now is Mishil's time...
