Episode 54

3
00:00:07,858 --> 00:00:09,509
Your Majesty!

4
00:00:09,932 --> 00:00:11,837
Chief Marshal Yushin,

5
00:00:12,175 --> 00:00:14,052
accepts his due punishment.

6
00:00:15,590 --> 00:00:17,920
May you staunchly rebuke my misdeeds.

7
00:00:20,117 --> 00:00:21,603
What are you waiting for?

8
00:00:21,713 --> 00:00:24,958
Apprehend criminal Yushin at once!

9
00:00:25,099 --> 00:00:26,419
Yes!

10
00:00:47,682 --> 00:00:48,907
<i>My gratitude...</i>

11
00:00:49,023 --> 00:00:50,335
<i>Yushin.</i>

12
00:00:57,643 --> 00:00:59,338
~ Episode 54 ~

13
00:01:24,998 --> 00:01:26,074
<i>Right...</i>

14
00:01:26,282 --> 00:01:27,793
<i>Yushin.</i>

15
00:01:28,118 --> 00:01:30,270
<i>That is what you are.</i>

16
00:01:30,973 --> 00:01:33,473
<i>Someone who knows no subterfuges,</i>

17
00:01:34,376 --> 00:01:36,365
<i>someone I can trust,</i>

18
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,293
<i>making it harder to abandon.</i>

19
00:02:15,465 --> 00:02:17,426
Did Wolya help you escape?

20
00:02:21,701 --> 00:02:24,127
Then, you must be aware of where he is?

21
00:02:27,273 --> 00:02:28,629
Tell me.

22
00:02:32,756 --> 00:02:35,010
Otherwise, why would you even come back?

23
00:02:35,225 --> 00:02:36,710
If you have nothing
to say about the movement,

24
00:02:36,776 --> 00:02:39,118
why even come back
into Her Majesty's embrace?

25
00:02:49,315 --> 00:02:51,403
Leave us alone.

26
00:03:09,061 --> 00:03:11,471
What Bidam said is right.

27
00:03:12,304 --> 00:03:17,142
<i>You acknowledge their misdeeds,
but still wish to protect them.</i>

28
00:03:18,153 --> 00:03:20,608
You might support any
punishment directed at them,

29
00:03:20,707 --> 00:03:23,444
but they will still remain your people.

30
00:03:25,659 --> 00:03:28,734
Are you not coveting a little too much?

31
00:03:30,456 --> 00:03:36,887
Think that I wouldn't want to both
answer to my whims and gain fealty...

32
00:03:37,339 --> 00:03:39,322
with the choices I make?

33
00:03:40,823 --> 00:03:42,488
Not to mention!

34
00:03:43,631 --> 00:03:45,169
Do you even realize...

35
00:03:46,297 --> 00:03:52,208
how difficult a decision you are
forcing upon me with your behavior?

36
00:03:55,340 --> 00:03:57,696
Are you aspiring to gain the throne?

37
00:03:58,665 --> 00:03:59,360
Your Majesty!

38
00:03:59,473 --> 00:04:00,955
If that is not the case,

39
00:04:01,674 --> 00:04:06,234
why are you protecting those
who wish to see the crown grace your pate?

40
00:04:06,479 --> 00:04:11,368
What ruler would ever let such
an organization freely operate?

41
00:04:11,671 --> 00:04:14,577
Yes... You are right.

42
00:04:15,085 --> 00:04:16,313
However...

43
00:04:17,505 --> 00:04:20,918
That same organization is still
enjoying the Gaya descendants' support.

44
00:04:21,313 --> 00:04:24,092
Until you convince them
to accept you as their ruler,

45
00:04:25,052 --> 00:04:29,580
Shilla and those Gaya people
have no future together.

46
00:04:32,363 --> 00:04:38,460
I do not want to see Gaya people
suffer Shilla's ostracism,

47
00:04:39,139 --> 00:04:42,676
and neither do I want to see you
incur the resentment of those Gaya people!

48
00:04:43,764 --> 00:04:45,175
Your Majesty.

49
00:04:45,514 --> 00:04:46,445
I implore you...

50
00:04:46,572 --> 00:04:49,506
Gaya people might become
one with us, but the movement...

51
00:04:49,789 --> 00:04:51,058
will never do.

52
00:04:51,651 --> 00:04:53,190
Bidam!

53
00:05:04,919 --> 00:05:06,001
Yes, Your Majesty.

54
00:05:06,107 --> 00:05:08,676
Deploy all the inspectorate's troops,

55
00:05:09,296 --> 00:05:11,794
and capture Wolya and the movement.

56
00:05:14,103 --> 00:05:15,236
Yes.

57
00:05:31,486 --> 00:05:34,180
He walked into what could
be the flames of demise?!

58
00:05:35,182 --> 00:05:37,703
He made his return to the palace?

59
00:05:38,004 --> 00:05:38,949
Yes.

60
00:05:41,630 --> 00:05:44,500
How could someone act that way...
How?!

61
00:05:45,728 --> 00:05:47,435
How shall we proceed?

62
00:05:49,651 --> 00:05:52,528
Observe how the situation
in the palace is developing.

63
00:05:52,655 --> 00:05:53,727
Yes.

64
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,974
Should any complication arise,

65
00:06:00,598 --> 00:06:03,406
we must get him out of there.

66
00:06:07,723 --> 00:06:09,058
Yes.

67
00:06:11,363 --> 00:06:14,330
What do you plan to do with Yushin?

68
00:06:16,745 --> 00:06:20,653
Any power Yushin loses will
only help foster Bidam's influence.

69
00:06:20,992 --> 00:06:22,558
We cannot allow that.

70
00:06:24,505 --> 00:06:28,010
Whom the movement is trying
to help to the throne is Yushin.

71
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,676
Are you telling me I should bestow
military authority upon such man?

72
00:06:30,761 --> 00:06:31,988
However, Your Majesty.

73
00:06:32,313 --> 00:06:35,317
If you allow that to happen,
Bidam will gain full control of the court.

74
00:06:35,434 --> 00:06:39,847
Don't you realize the reason why
I wish to ferret out the movement?

75
00:06:41,850 --> 00:06:43,876
I have the utmost confidence in Yushin.

76
00:06:43,972 --> 00:06:47,591
As long as I wear this crown,
he will never foment ulterior motives.

77
00:06:47,676 --> 00:06:51,372
The same goes for Wolya.

78
00:06:52,741 --> 00:06:55,224
But the problem will be who succeeds me.

79
00:06:55,844 --> 00:07:01,034
If my successor cannot gain full
control of the court after my departure,

80
00:07:01,394 --> 00:07:06,108
be it Yushin, Bidam or whomever...

81
00:07:06,586 --> 00:07:08,688
They will aspire to gain that throne.

82
00:07:12,284 --> 00:07:14,174
<i>You are of true bone.</i>

83
00:07:14,468 --> 00:07:17,617
If you fail to gain
a firm hold on the situation,

84
00:07:17,851 --> 00:07:21,849
your being Cheonmyeong's son
will not suffice to gain the throne.

85
00:07:22,832 --> 00:07:25,517
No matter if you soil your
hands with dirt or blood,

86
00:07:25,763 --> 00:07:27,760
be it Bidam or Yushin,

87
00:07:28,151 --> 00:07:30,558
you must subjugate them and
wrest the crown away from them.

88
00:07:33,337 --> 00:07:38,176
Your leisurely idling away
in my crown's shadows has to stop.

89
00:07:40,307 --> 00:07:41,535
The grandiose goal of unifying
the Three Kingdoms which...

90
00:07:41,577 --> 00:07:43,891
has been passed down
since King Jijeung will never...

91
00:07:45,603 --> 00:07:48,109
be something you can so easily achieve.

92
00:07:50,352 --> 00:07:51,566
Hence,

93
00:07:52,525 --> 00:07:55,514
as if I had to shred my own limbs...

94
00:08:00,156 --> 00:08:02,399
I hereby deprive
Chief Marshal Yushin of his post,

95
00:08:02,653 --> 00:08:04,511
and condemn him to exile.

96
00:08:08,649 --> 00:08:09,830
Your Majesty!

97
00:08:10,596 --> 00:08:11,900
Exile?!

98
00:08:12,055 --> 00:08:13,692
And where to?

99
00:08:14,115 --> 00:08:17,396
<i>{\a6}*Ulleung Island</i>

100
00:08:14,115 --> 00:08:17,396
Arrange for his
immediate departure for Usan*.

101
00:08:19,405 --> 00:08:20,438
Your Majesty.

102
00:08:20,547 --> 00:08:24,435
I can sympathize with the weight
of your decision, but exile...

103
00:08:24,546 --> 00:08:28,272
Yes, particularly considering
His Excellency's meritorious service,

104
00:08:28,385 --> 00:08:30,190
I see it as a much too excessive measure.

105
00:08:30,276 --> 00:08:33,267
Also, he might have
escaped from imprisonment,

106
00:08:33,380 --> 00:08:35,220
but he returned of his own volition.

107
00:08:35,325 --> 00:08:36,729
Yes, Your Majesty.

108
00:08:36,921 --> 00:08:40,757
We have not even confirmed
his involvement with the movement.

109
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:42,066
Your Majesty.

110
00:08:42,268 --> 00:08:43,652
May you reconsider.

111
00:08:43,761 --> 00:08:44,814
Yes, Your Majesty.

112
00:08:44,931 --> 00:08:46,278
It is our Chief Marshal.

113
00:08:46,670 --> 00:08:48,709
We must further investigate!

114
00:08:48,830 --> 00:08:52,439
Squandering time with further
investigation would be fruitless.

115
00:08:52,652 --> 00:08:56,306
Devote your most earnest efforts
in uprooting the movement,

116
00:08:56,490 --> 00:08:59,393
under the supervision
of the Royal Inspectorate.

117
00:09:11,681 --> 00:09:13,318
Exile?

118
00:09:13,794 --> 00:09:17,738
The issue is not her not trusting you,

119
00:09:18,530 --> 00:09:20,336
but the fact that she is angered.

120
00:09:21,902 --> 00:09:24,211
It is because she had the utmost
confidence in you and Bidam...

121
00:09:24,341 --> 00:09:28,489
that she could focus on
our people's livelihood.

122
00:09:30,258 --> 00:09:32,487
That stout fortress of stability ...

123
00:09:33,052 --> 00:09:35,591
collapsed under the
weight of your pertinacity.

124
00:09:36,748 --> 00:09:38,247
I know.

125
00:09:39,005 --> 00:09:43,037
But you still refuse to abandon Wolya?

126
00:09:45,763 --> 00:09:52,468
I do not deserve to face
either you or Her Majesty.

127
00:10:01,772 --> 00:10:03,303
Does this make any sense?

128
00:10:03,410 --> 00:10:05,142
It is our Chief Marshal!

129
00:10:05,285 --> 00:10:08,298
Think of his strenuous efforts
to protect our nation!

130
00:10:08,408 --> 00:10:09,624
And does it stop at that?

131
00:10:09,731 --> 00:10:11,868
What about his relationship
with Her Majesty?

132
00:10:11,980 --> 00:10:15,768
Yes... Can we sit still
and watch this unfold?

133
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:20,810
All the battalion chiefs from the Board
plan to present a memorial on the matter.

134
00:10:20,934 --> 00:10:27,073
Memorials are not the issue.
How can Her Majesty do this?

135
00:10:27,737 --> 00:10:30,950
Let us seek audience firsthand,
and speak to Her Majesty.

136
00:10:31,137 --> 00:10:32,787
That is what must be done!

137
00:10:33,493 --> 00:10:34,978
Let us go now.

138
00:10:45,872 --> 00:10:47,418
What is the matter?

139
00:10:48,454 --> 00:10:49,562
Your Majesty.

140
00:10:49,680 --> 00:10:51,724
This is much too unfair.

141
00:10:51,945 --> 00:10:53,324
You may leave.

142
00:10:53,582 --> 00:10:57,885
How can you so
heartlessly abandon him?

143
00:10:58,492 --> 00:10:59,268
<i>Your Majesty!</i>

144
00:10:59,352 --> 00:11:00,650
Your Majesty!

145
00:11:03,978 --> 00:11:05,046
Yes, Your Majesty.

146
00:11:05,173 --> 00:11:07,684
Think of the devotion and efforts
he dedicated to our cause,

147
00:11:07,797 --> 00:11:08,897
and you will realize
how unconscionable this is.

148
00:11:08,954 --> 00:11:12,410
Yes, Your Majesty. Don't you know
His Excellency's true nature?!

149
00:11:12,551 --> 00:11:14,611
He would never betray you!

150
00:11:14,795 --> 00:11:19,592
Then...
Are you implying I betrayed him?

151
00:11:20,636 --> 00:11:22,314
We did not mean that...

152
00:11:22,483 --> 00:11:23,791
We are just saying
that is an excessive...

153
00:11:23,896 --> 00:11:26,084
What is excessive is the
Chief Marshal's behavior!

154
00:11:26,222 --> 00:11:27,676
Not mine.

155
00:11:28,593 --> 00:11:31,767
Am I alone in knowing and
cherishing His Excellency's nature?

156
00:11:32,007 --> 00:11:34,391
His Excellency himself will know my
disposition and how much I care for him.

157
00:11:34,490 --> 00:11:36,042
So, why?

158
00:11:37,340 --> 00:11:39,484
Why does he refuse to
lose a single one of them?

159
00:11:39,809 --> 00:11:42,278
Why does he not
abandon even only one?

160
00:11:43,037 --> 00:11:47,850
Why is he forcing such
a difficult decision upon me?

161
00:11:52,475 --> 00:11:53,543
Your Majesty!

162
00:11:53,631 --> 00:11:54,675
Your Majesty!!

163
00:11:54,790 --> 00:11:57,075
- Your Majesty!
- Your Majesty!

164
00:11:57,188 --> 00:11:59,671
<i>Your Majesty!</i>

165
00:12:11,971 --> 00:12:13,988
<i>Your Majesty.</i>

166
00:12:27,343 --> 00:12:30,757
Just leave Yushin in Seorabeol.

167
00:12:33,071 --> 00:12:35,652
This is too much
affliction for you to bear.

168
00:12:50,656 --> 00:12:52,208
Don't.

169
00:13:00,881 --> 00:13:02,419
Considering the movement's situation,

170
00:13:02,588 --> 00:13:05,227
we will have to reshuffle personnel.

171
00:13:05,452 --> 00:13:07,131
Devise a personnel plan.

172
00:13:08,370 --> 00:13:09,812
Yes...

173
00:13:31,782 --> 00:13:32,925
Hey... Hey...

174
00:13:33,037 --> 00:13:34,462
What is the matter?

175
00:13:34,603 --> 00:13:36,409
I am disappointed.

176
00:13:36,579 --> 00:13:40,261
She had no choice,
think this is not afflicting her?

177
00:13:40,416 --> 00:13:41,531
Anyhow, forget it.

178
00:13:41,658 --> 00:13:43,116
We are the Yushin Army.

179
00:13:43,228 --> 00:13:46,036
With no Lord Yushin in sight,
we needn't remain at the Board.

180
00:13:46,177 --> 00:13:47,574
Ahh... You little dolts...

181
00:13:47,658 --> 00:13:49,326
Just shut that gob and stay put!

182
00:13:49,434 --> 00:13:51,445
As if this wasn't
complicated enough, you little...

183
00:13:51,582 --> 00:13:55,769
Isn't this too excessive on your part?

184
00:13:56,462 --> 00:13:58,212
You are really something.

185
00:13:58,326 --> 00:13:59,148
Uh?!

186
00:14:00,899 --> 00:14:01,929
Right!

187
00:14:02,070 --> 00:14:03,693
Out of the way!

188
00:14:03,876 --> 00:14:04,652
So long.

189
00:14:04,723 --> 00:14:07,198
Hey.. Hey... Godo...
Hey!

190
00:14:08,292 --> 00:14:11,284
Ahh... Those little dolts
and their foolish ways.

191
00:14:12,016 --> 00:14:13,709
Aigoo...

192
00:14:15,949 --> 00:14:19,025
If Her Majesty ordered the
Commissioner to propose new personnel,

193
00:14:19,109 --> 00:14:22,396
doesn't that imply she has the
utmost confidence in His Excellency?

194
00:14:22,523 --> 00:14:28,646
It would be the perfect opportunity
to suggest conjugal ties...

195
00:14:29,988 --> 00:14:32,705
Ehh... Any time you mention that,

196
00:14:32,827 --> 00:14:35,356
you always meet with
a staunch rebuff anyhow.

197
00:14:35,463 --> 00:14:39,619
Timing is paramount when
it comes to such matters...

198
00:14:39,726 --> 00:14:41,261
Who knows?

199
00:14:44,692 --> 00:14:47,728
As for the personnel proposal,
proceed as planned.

200
00:14:47,896 --> 00:14:50,690
Yes. We shall commend Lord Jujin as
Commissioner of the Board of Military Affairs,

201
00:14:50,788 --> 00:14:53,280
and take the opportunity to
promote Piltan to Chief Marshal,

202
00:14:53,356 --> 00:14:56,134
along with Alcheon Rang.

203
00:14:58,096 --> 00:15:00,712
Also, Lord Doyeol of Bisa Fortress
and Lord Seongchun of Hando Fortress...

204
00:15:00,769 --> 00:15:02,620
have been fervently supporting us.

205
00:15:02,719 --> 00:15:04,763
Let us reward their fealty.

206
00:15:05,597 --> 00:15:06,669
Yes.

207
00:15:07,027 --> 00:15:11,762
Accord a position to me as well.

208
00:15:13,419 --> 00:15:18,879
I have a past as official in the
Royal Secretariat, after all.

209
00:15:20,173 --> 00:15:21,320
What?!

210
00:15:21,870 --> 00:15:24,014
Official?!

211
00:15:24,268 --> 00:15:25,637
Why?

212
00:15:27,486 --> 00:15:29,267
Ahh... Sure.

213
00:15:29,436 --> 00:15:31,171
Official indeed.

214
00:15:31,312 --> 00:15:33,443
Official...

215
00:15:58,251 --> 00:16:00,825
Yushin is departing.

216
00:16:02,292 --> 00:16:05,301
Do you really plan
not to even see him once?

217
00:16:07,992 --> 00:16:09,276
Your Majesty.

218
00:16:09,621 --> 00:16:12,366
Recall our retreating
battle in Amak Fortress?

219
00:16:14,623 --> 00:16:16,559
During your trainee days,

220
00:16:16,689 --> 00:16:20,441
you never accepted giving up
on anyone, even the wounded.

221
00:16:21,288 --> 00:16:26,281
You did not abandon anyone or anything,
in such a direful situation.

222
00:16:29,479 --> 00:16:32,430
Wouldn't Yushin
be feeling the same thing?

223
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,150
Chief.

224
00:16:34,518 --> 00:16:36,395
Give it a rest.

225
00:16:40,684 --> 00:16:42,320
I will.

226
00:16:53,531 --> 00:16:55,256
Your Majesty.

227
00:16:58,585 --> 00:17:01,379
I did as you instructed me.

228
00:17:01,816 --> 00:17:02,989
Yes.

229
00:17:06,194 --> 00:17:08,352
Are you all right?

230
00:17:09,523 --> 00:17:10,863
Yes.

231
00:17:11,329 --> 00:17:16,493
Ahh... Sohwa should be here
in times like this.

232
00:17:21,126 --> 00:17:24,385
Don't I have you by my side,
Jukbang Hyungnim?

233
00:17:27,983 --> 00:17:32,159
Don't ever leave me.

234
00:17:40,191 --> 00:17:41,856
Your Majesty.

235
00:17:42,561 --> 00:17:49,079
Why don't you reconsider,
and instead marry Lord Yushin...

236
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,383
For rulers and those of true bone,

237
00:17:52,468 --> 00:17:57,618
marrying a few times is
not such an unusual sight.

238
00:18:44,679 --> 00:18:47,713
Here is the personnel proposal I devised.

239
00:18:55,483 --> 00:18:59,451
Lord Jujin is the most
suitable candidate for the Board.

240
00:18:59,591 --> 00:19:01,240
And I also removed all Gaya
descendants from the court,

241
00:19:01,381 --> 00:19:04,583
electing plenty of new talent.

242
00:19:06,163 --> 00:19:07,407
Yes.

243
00:19:08,421 --> 00:19:11,138
<i>Your Majesty,
the Sangdaedaeung seeks audience.</i>

244
00:19:19,830 --> 00:19:20,910
Your Majesty.

245
00:19:21,031 --> 00:19:22,227
Were you looking for me?

246
00:19:22,340 --> 00:19:24,085
I decided a court
reshuffle is inevitable,

247
00:19:24,705 --> 00:19:28,471
considering our situation
with the Chief Marshal.

248
00:19:32,620 --> 00:19:33,819
<i>First,</i>

249
00:19:33,932 --> 00:19:41,329
I proclaim Lord Chunchu as the officer
in charge of the three royal palaces,

250
00:19:41,569 --> 00:19:45,197
<i>{\a6}*Second highest rank in Shilla</i>

251
00:19:41,569 --> 00:19:45,197
with the position of Yichan*.

252
00:19:48,722 --> 00:19:50,471
Yes, Your Majesty.

253
00:19:50,852 --> 00:19:53,081
I shall devote my most earnest efforts.

254
00:19:55,244 --> 00:19:58,657
Also, as Commissioner of the Board,

255
00:20:00,237 --> 00:20:02,678
I hereby proclaim Lord Seohyeon.

256
00:20:04,018 --> 00:20:05,739
Your Majesty!

257
00:20:06,416 --> 00:20:10,396
For both Wolya and Chief Marshal Yushin
were under your responsibility,

258
00:20:10,582 --> 00:20:12,765
you would deserve to face reproof,

259
00:20:12,906 --> 00:20:17,252
but Baekje's movements
are fomenting suspicion.

260
00:20:19,567 --> 00:20:22,480
Hence, I shall indeed
entrust you this post,

261
00:20:22,588 --> 00:20:25,509
but the Commissioner will have
to keep an observant eye on you.

262
00:20:25,618 --> 00:20:26,957
<i>Yes, Your Majesty.</i>

263
00:20:27,065 --> 00:20:29,197
<i>I will give my all.</i>

264
00:20:30,171 --> 00:20:32,710
Find the movement soon,

265
00:20:32,992 --> 00:20:37,465
and devote all your energy to uncover
the situation in Baekje and Goguryeo.

266
00:20:39,764 --> 00:20:40,780
Yes.

267
00:20:41,048 --> 00:20:44,761
Also, from here on in,
both Commissioners...

268
00:20:44,888 --> 00:20:50,503
will report directly to the
Sangdaedeung and Lord Chunchu.

269
00:20:52,453 --> 00:20:56,339
Wasn't the Royal Inspectorate
under Your Majesty's direct control?

270
00:20:56,882 --> 00:21:01,339
It was done so for the sake of
maintaining order in the court,

271
00:21:01,466 --> 00:21:07,174
but the inspectorate
achieved more than I ever expected.

272
00:21:11,135 --> 00:21:19,225
Hence, I would like you to focus
your efforts on Baekje and Goguryeo now.

273
00:21:33,876 --> 00:21:35,061
Why this?

274
00:21:35,456 --> 00:21:37,472
Tell me the reason.

275
00:21:39,703 --> 00:21:41,283
Just as I told you.

276
00:21:41,518 --> 00:21:44,354
- More than maintaining order in the court...
- Is it...

277
00:21:44,445 --> 00:21:46,945
a lack of confidence what
moved your decision?

278
00:21:48,167 --> 00:21:53,858
Yushin is responsible, so why
should I have to face this treatment?

279
00:21:55,128 --> 00:21:57,611
If Yushin is not by your side,

280
00:21:57,983 --> 00:22:02,724
should it be the
same for me, Your Majesty?

281
00:22:03,810 --> 00:22:11,725
Can't you see the fealty
and devotion I am showing you?

282
00:22:13,347 --> 00:22:14,855
I can.

283
00:22:17,866 --> 00:22:19,839
Just like I see your desire for me,

284
00:22:19,937 --> 00:22:23,709
and how much you cherish me.

285
00:22:23,789 --> 00:22:25,033
So?

286
00:22:25,337 --> 00:22:29,688
Know what I most envied Mishil for?

287
00:22:32,721 --> 00:22:33,948
That she...

288
00:22:35,147 --> 00:22:37,433
was not wearing the crown.

289
00:22:39,332 --> 00:22:43,463
What devotion and
conjugal ties meant to her...

290
00:22:43,604 --> 00:22:46,438
was the strengthening of her influence,

291
00:22:46,550 --> 00:22:50,963
<i>but should I do the same thing,</i>

292
00:22:51,945 --> 00:22:54,264
it will only plant seeds of dissent.

293
00:22:54,774 --> 00:22:56,056
Isn't it?

294
00:22:57,453 --> 00:22:59,950
Do you really have no
intention of gaining power...

295
00:23:00,275 --> 00:23:03,639
and this country itself through me?

296
00:23:05,008 --> 00:23:10,383
Think I have no feelings?

297
00:23:12,485 --> 00:23:14,658
Think I would not like to lean onto,

298
00:23:15,318 --> 00:23:17,395
love and be consoled by someone,

299
00:23:18,287 --> 00:23:21,771
spending a life caressed
by their kind words?

300
00:23:29,376 --> 00:23:31,873
Think that if those
hands of yours touched me,

301
00:23:33,460 --> 00:23:36,268
my heart wouldn't throb?

302
00:23:57,847 --> 00:23:59,151
However...

303
00:23:59,328 --> 00:24:00,584
It is not possible.

304
00:24:00,884 --> 00:24:04,238
- For I...
- Why?

305
00:24:04,661 --> 00:24:05,947
Why?

306
00:24:06,869 --> 00:24:08,237
For I...

307
00:24:08,717 --> 00:24:10,537
am no longer a simple woman.

308
00:24:10,714 --> 00:24:14,318
All I am is a ruler.

309
00:24:18,099 --> 00:24:23,319
The father who abandoned me
to salvage his reign, King Jinpyeong.

310
00:24:23,672 --> 00:24:27,735
The sister who sacrificed her life,
Princess Cheonmyeong.

311
00:24:28,525 --> 00:24:32,207
And before them Kings Jijeung,
Beopheung and Jinheung.

312
00:24:34,831 --> 00:24:39,079
The exacting task
they all bestowed upon me...

313
00:24:39,195 --> 00:24:40,515
is but one thing.

314
00:24:42,115 --> 00:24:46,215
To avoid Shilla's damnation,

315
00:24:46,388 --> 00:24:47,837
to strengthen the crown's authority,

316
00:24:47,993 --> 00:24:49,460
and...

317
00:24:51,139 --> 00:24:54,094
to unify the Three Kingdoms.

318
00:24:56,476 --> 00:25:00,948
Until that day comes,
there shall be no "me."

319
00:25:03,531 --> 00:25:05,040
Bidam.

320
00:25:06,061 --> 00:25:08,832
Do not even think of possessing me.

321
00:25:11,259 --> 00:25:15,265
That is what cherishing someone means.

322
00:25:15,562 --> 00:25:16,979
Bidam...

323
00:25:17,090 --> 00:25:18,538
I implore you,

324
00:25:19,203 --> 00:25:21,681
do not force me to choose.

325
00:25:26,313 --> 00:25:30,683
Nobody can ever possess me.

326
00:25:31,191 --> 00:25:33,815
As long as this crown adorns my pate.

327
00:26:19,850 --> 00:26:22,255
I mean... what on earth is this?

328
00:26:22,414 --> 00:26:26,703
It's as if she demoted
the entire inspectorate!

329
00:26:27,023 --> 00:26:30,022
From here on in, both when it comes
to asking Her Majesty's consent...

330
00:26:30,143 --> 00:26:35,513
or any report, we will
answer directly to the court.

331
00:26:35,635 --> 00:26:39,476
So why did she even
ask for a personnel plan?

332
00:26:39,646 --> 00:26:41,536
I ought to...

333
00:26:42,299 --> 00:26:45,826
What Her Majesty
used this opportunity for...

334
00:26:45,937 --> 00:26:49,548
was verifying how much
influence Lord Bidam has amassed.

335
00:26:50,578 --> 00:26:56,073
And considering that we have been
entrusted with ferreting out the movement,

336
00:26:56,181 --> 00:27:01,328
the entire case is now
under our responsibility.

337
00:27:01,602 --> 00:27:07,668
And should we fail,
we would be held responsible.

338
00:27:10,194 --> 00:27:12,365
And in case of success...

339
00:27:12,470 --> 00:27:15,366
She will summon Yushin.

340
00:27:34,333 --> 00:27:37,620
Shouldn't we devise a counterplan?

341
00:27:37,705 --> 00:27:39,341
Indeed.

342
00:27:39,539 --> 00:27:45,210
Her Majesty and Yushin are not
likely to end their rapport so easily.

343
00:27:45,613 --> 00:27:50,859
When something of this sort happened,
with only one word by Mother...

344
00:27:50,964 --> 00:27:55,490
Lord Seolwon would
deal with it all on his own.

345
00:28:07,517 --> 00:28:09,280
Listen.

346
00:28:09,393 --> 00:28:10,649
Yes.

347
00:28:15,412 --> 00:28:18,632
We will slay Yushin.

348
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,789
Arrange for it.

349
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:22,717
Yes.

350
00:28:46,502 --> 00:28:49,558
It was one of Her Highness's
favorite spots, wasn't it?

351
00:28:50,559 --> 00:28:52,365
Yes, Your Majesty.

352
00:28:54,933 --> 00:29:01,522
Without your support, inheriting control
of state affairs would not have been easy.

353
00:29:02,029 --> 00:29:06,407
You would have distinguished
yourself even without my help.

354
00:29:06,783 --> 00:29:11,918
Her Highness had quite
the talent at her disposal.

355
00:29:15,953 --> 00:29:19,297
What were Her Highness's
final injunctions?

356
00:29:21,599 --> 00:29:25,456
Her final words she left you with.

357
00:29:29,477 --> 00:29:31,551
Whatever they might be,

358
00:29:32,002 --> 00:29:34,528
I strongly advise you
against inciting Bidam.

359
00:29:37,453 --> 00:29:42,319
I am sure that it will ultimately
be Her Highness's wish as well.

360
00:30:02,454 --> 00:30:04,796
Where is the exiled's abode?

361
00:30:04,923 --> 00:30:07,068
You met a certain Yushin, I trust?

362
00:30:07,375 --> 00:30:10,581
I cannot say with certainty,
but it is a little far from the village.

363
00:30:10,736 --> 00:30:13,275
Take a look over there.

364
00:30:26,523 --> 00:30:29,364
How could there be no troops
protecting this place?

365
00:30:43,451 --> 00:30:44,639
Lord Yushin.

366
00:30:44,750 --> 00:30:46,643
Chief Marshal.

367
00:30:56,180 --> 00:30:57,380
Nobody is in here.

368
00:30:57,478 --> 00:30:59,825
There is no trace that anyone was here!

369
00:31:04,354 --> 00:31:06,907
What on earth is all this about?

370
00:31:10,597 --> 00:31:11,957
Say what?

371
00:31:12,183 --> 00:31:13,650
Her Majesty?!

372
00:31:25,670 --> 00:31:27,241
<i>Lord Yushin.</i>

373
00:31:27,426 --> 00:31:31,848
<i>Investigate Baekje's condition
south of Pallyangchi.</i>

374
00:31:32,130 --> 00:31:36,179
<i>You must act in utmost
secrecy and discretion.</i>

375
00:31:38,558 --> 00:31:43,191
Her Majesty had ordered us to
inquire on Baekje's frontline.

376
00:31:43,510 --> 00:31:48,819
And when we reported on the situation,
she was deeply concerned.

377
00:31:50,031 --> 00:31:54,857
Godo Daedaegam and Daepung
are waiting east of Pallyangchi.

378
00:31:55,605 --> 00:32:00,008
However, regrettably so,
she wants your exile to continue...

379
00:32:00,139 --> 00:32:02,876
once your task is complete.

380
00:32:11,030 --> 00:32:12,244
What?

381
00:32:12,780 --> 00:32:14,787
Yushin infiltrated Baekje?!

382
00:32:14,928 --> 00:32:21,503
Yes. Some of our men were
trailing him there in disguise.

383
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:25,491
Did you tell them
to continue trailing him?

384
00:32:25,620 --> 00:32:26,582
Yes.

385
00:32:26,751 --> 00:32:29,474
I told them to keep following him,
and returned alone.

386
00:32:29,770 --> 00:32:33,180
They will keep contacting us
on his whereabouts.

387
00:32:35,790 --> 00:32:37,765
Yushin...

388
00:32:41,306 --> 00:32:45,552
I deployed all their men
as a Baekje recon unit.

389
00:32:46,184 --> 00:32:48,696
Depart immediately with Bojong.

390
00:32:48,879 --> 00:32:49,811
Yes.

391
00:32:49,903 --> 00:32:51,793
<i>Commissioner!</i>

392
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:02,585
Commissioner.

393
00:33:02,675 --> 00:33:04,201
It is serious!

394
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,997
At his place of exile...
At his place...

395
00:33:10,084 --> 00:33:11,381
What is the matter?

396
00:33:12,271 --> 00:33:15,515
Yushin was not there.

397
00:33:16,534 --> 00:33:18,859
It seems like he has
never been there to begin with.

398
00:33:18,950 --> 00:33:22,813
Then...
Are you telling me he escaped?

399
00:33:23,848 --> 00:33:27,471
But, how did you find out?

400
00:33:28,625 --> 00:33:31,038
Th...That...

401
00:33:32,321 --> 00:33:36,136
So?!
I asked you a question.

402
00:33:42,117 --> 00:33:43,303
Answer me.

403
00:33:43,402 --> 00:33:45,069
How did you find out?

404
00:33:45,304 --> 00:33:48,499
I went there.

405
00:33:49,755 --> 00:33:51,589
At his place of exile?

406
00:33:52,206 --> 00:33:53,592
Why?

407
00:33:59,376 --> 00:34:00,708
Speak!

408
00:34:00,819 --> 00:34:02,875
Why did you go there?

409
00:34:05,508 --> 00:34:08,175
I thought this was
the perfect opportunity...

410
00:34:08,288 --> 00:34:11,631
to slay Yushin once and for all.

411
00:34:33,356 --> 00:34:35,670
<i>Yushin vanished?!</i>

412
00:34:36,421 --> 00:34:37,750
<i>Wolya.</i>

413
00:34:37,976 --> 00:34:41,404
<i>Or, Her Majesty?!</i>

414
00:35:11,018 --> 00:35:12,993
Who are you and from which battalion?

415
00:35:20,850 --> 00:35:24,917
<i>{\a6}*Wisabu: Correct term is WisaJwapyeong,
one of Baekje's six ministries</i>

416
00:35:20,850 --> 00:35:24,917
I am Doyeol,
from the Royal Guard Ministry*.

417
00:35:25,012 --> 00:35:27,175
Your destination and pass code?

418
00:35:27,697 --> 00:35:29,079
Tell me! Now!

419
00:35:29,164 --> 00:35:30,476
Pocha...

420
00:35:31,069 --> 00:35:33,044
<i>{\a6}*Ancient siege weapon</i>

421
00:35:31,069 --> 00:35:33,044
It is Pocha*.

422
00:35:33,368 --> 00:35:35,575
What were you going to convey?

423
00:35:39,661 --> 00:35:41,265
If you wish to survive, speak at once!

424
00:35:41,429 --> 00:35:44,442
His... His Majesty...

425
00:35:46,781 --> 00:35:47,883
Search them.

426
00:35:47,998 --> 00:35:49,677
Find any message or edict.

427
00:35:49,803 --> 00:35:50,973
Yes.

428
00:35:59,733 --> 00:36:01,243
There is nothing.

429
00:36:01,356 --> 00:36:03,909
Nothing.
How shall we proceed?

430
00:36:08,145 --> 00:36:14,026
<i>~ Baekje Encampment ~</i>

431
00:36:23,433 --> 00:36:25,877
<i>~ Gyebaek ~
(Baekje General)</i>

432
00:36:24,604 --> 00:36:26,290
What is your pass code?

433
00:36:29,673 --> 00:36:31,147
Pocha.

434
00:36:34,385 --> 00:36:35,796
Follow me.

435
00:36:53,206 --> 00:36:55,812
<i>{\a6}~ Yoon Chung ~
(Baekje General)</i>

436
00:36:53,206 --> 00:36:56,729
You don't seem quite familiar?!

437
00:36:57,039 --> 00:36:59,167
Who are you,
and from which battalion?

438
00:37:02,327 --> 00:37:05,008
I am Doyeol from
the Royal Guard Ministry.

439
00:37:06,334 --> 00:37:11,850
So you are the one who
won the last riding contest.

440
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:14,061
Yes.

441
00:37:15,361 --> 00:37:19,074
So, what are you here to convey?

442
00:37:19,947 --> 00:37:25,605
His Majesty wishes for me to report
on this operation's plans in detail.

443
00:37:26,028 --> 00:37:30,139
His Majesty... ordered you that?

444
00:37:37,263 --> 00:37:40,000
Did General Gwanpyeong
from Sangdansan Fortress...

445
00:37:40,099 --> 00:37:42,540
report to His Majesty?

446
00:37:46,973 --> 00:37:51,812
I thought General Yeongun
was in Sangdansan Fortress?!

447
00:37:53,241 --> 00:37:55,847
Ohh... Right, indeed.

448
00:37:56,073 --> 00:37:58,753
Seems like I got
confused for a moment.

449
00:38:02,877 --> 00:38:04,796
Things are proceeding as planned,

450
00:38:04,917 --> 00:38:07,293
and we are about to devise
our operation's itinerary.

451
00:38:08,168 --> 00:38:10,827
We will request reinforcements
in accordance with such plans,

452
00:38:11,031 --> 00:38:13,902
so you will have to await a few hours.

453
00:38:14,742 --> 00:38:15,913
Yes.

454
00:38:17,359 --> 00:38:18,586
Gyebaek.

455
00:38:18,967 --> 00:38:20,421
Yes, Commander.

456
00:38:21,366 --> 00:38:24,308
Allay our messengers' hunger,

457
00:38:24,456 --> 00:38:25,942
and arrange new horses for them.

458
00:38:26,191 --> 00:38:27,319
Yes.

459
00:39:17,890 --> 00:39:19,410
Await here.

460
00:39:19,946 --> 00:39:21,049
Yes.

461
00:40:00,893 --> 00:40:02,913
<i>~ Daeya Fortress ~</i>

462
00:40:06,878 --> 00:40:08,504
<i>Daeya Fortress?!</i>

463
00:40:17,866 --> 00:40:21,365
<i>~ Gaemun (Opening the Gates) ~
Heuk (Black)</i>

464
00:40:21,746 --> 00:40:23,338
<i>Heuk?!</i>

465
00:40:31,803 --> 00:40:33,413
What is it?

466
00:40:34,808 --> 00:40:36,487
Ahh... That...

467
00:40:37,107 --> 00:40:40,542
I saw a lot of mud and rocks outside.

468
00:40:40,968 --> 00:40:42,760
What are they for?

469
00:40:45,525 --> 00:40:50,279
We used them for defense purposes,
during the last Doksan Fortress battle.

470
00:40:51,874 --> 00:40:56,030
The double trident route, you mean?

471
00:40:57,218 --> 00:40:59,094
I see you're well informed.

472
00:41:00,138 --> 00:41:03,919
Whose conception was that?

473
00:41:04,328 --> 00:41:06,360
Why are you asking that?

474
00:41:07,827 --> 00:41:13,650
I heard it created an instant
escape route during a siege.

475
00:41:14,172 --> 00:41:16,534
I just thought it was a remarkable feat.

476
00:41:17,191 --> 00:41:19,169
I was responsible for it.

477
00:41:21,931 --> 00:41:27,096
Then... Will this be
another siege operation?

478
00:41:29,269 --> 00:41:32,965
His Majesty's expectations
for this battle are very high.

479
00:41:34,841 --> 00:41:36,619
I am sure they are.

480
00:41:37,522 --> 00:41:42,101
Is not Daeya Fortress of
crucial strategic importance?

481
00:41:42,190 --> 00:41:43,586
<i>I knew it...</i>

482
00:41:46,450 --> 00:41:50,075
Daeya Fortress's configuration
brings them several advantages,

483
00:41:50,216 --> 00:41:52,213
making it inexpugnable.

484
00:41:52,315 --> 00:41:55,761
It would surely be a prolonged conflict...

485
00:41:56,198 --> 00:41:57,874
Indeed.

486
00:41:58,590 --> 00:42:00,557
If we take the initiative,

487
00:42:00,679 --> 00:42:03,461
we will need longer supply lines,
and as transportation will be arduous...

488
00:42:03,955 --> 00:42:06,706
- I think...
- All it will take...

489
00:42:08,131 --> 00:42:10,052
is a blitzkrieg.

490
00:42:33,549 --> 00:42:36,731
There is much more yield
with wheat than sorghum.

491
00:42:36,838 --> 00:42:37,979
Indeed.

492
00:42:38,153 --> 00:42:40,786
According to Counselor Deokcheon,
beans are the best way...

493
00:42:40,913 --> 00:42:42,960
for a barren land to regain fertility.

494
00:42:43,185 --> 00:42:46,540
Use bean cultivation
for those barren lands.

495
00:42:46,724 --> 00:42:50,251
If we manage to succeed and make it possible
to cultivate the same land every year,

496
00:42:50,448 --> 00:42:53,919
that alone will
double or triple our yield.

497
00:42:57,516 --> 00:42:58,532
Your Majesty.

498
00:42:58,696 --> 00:43:00,546
The yield has significantly
improved already,

499
00:43:00,671 --> 00:43:02,720
not to mention self-sufficient farmland.

500
00:43:02,823 --> 00:43:05,025
Does it not make you rejoice?

501
00:43:05,122 --> 00:43:08,446
It brings me happiness as well.

502
00:43:08,564 --> 00:43:12,651
Still, I am anxious.

503
00:43:14,325 --> 00:43:15,620
<i>Your Majesty.</i>

504
00:43:20,001 --> 00:43:21,708
What brings you here?

505
00:43:26,294 --> 00:43:27,971
Where is Her Majesty?

506
00:43:28,102 --> 00:43:31,768
She is on leave, discussing
land reclamation matters.

507
00:43:33,174 --> 00:43:34,642
If you will excuse me.

508
00:43:35,770 --> 00:43:37,830
Commissioner.

509
00:43:40,539 --> 00:43:44,531
Wasn't there something you
had to report to Her Majesty?

510
00:43:47,311 --> 00:43:52,119
She should have told you that now
you first must report to me?!

511
00:43:56,027 --> 00:44:01,130
We received word that Chief Marshal
Yushin vanished from his place of exile.

512
00:44:05,551 --> 00:44:07,928
We still could not find
whether he merely escaped,

513
00:44:08,051 --> 00:44:11,722
or he was never there to begin with.

514
00:44:11,876 --> 00:44:13,563
I see.

515
00:44:13,655 --> 00:44:15,869
I shall report it to
Her Majesty once she returns,

516
00:44:15,961 --> 00:44:17,887
and we will discuss how to proceed.

517
00:44:17,986 --> 00:44:20,580
- Yes.
- Tell me.

518
00:44:22,389 --> 00:44:27,521
Why was the inspectorate there,
without Her Majesty's orders?

519
00:44:30,131 --> 00:44:35,508
What Her Majesty ordered you was
ferreting out the movement, if I recall?

520
00:44:37,678 --> 00:44:41,579
Are you actively seeking
Wolya's whereabouts?

521
00:44:43,156 --> 00:44:45,554
Wouldn't Wolya be after Yushin?

522
00:44:45,679 --> 00:44:50,262
That is why we were
observing his place of exile.

523
00:45:07,574 --> 00:45:10,452
The Commander said you can see him now.

524
00:45:10,720 --> 00:45:11,849
Yes.

525
00:45:33,536 --> 00:45:38,014
You must report this
directly to His Majesty.

526
00:45:38,254 --> 00:45:40,018
Is that clear?

527
00:45:40,299 --> 00:45:41,541
Yes.

528
00:45:42,712 --> 00:45:44,587
Take it.

529
00:45:56,670 --> 00:45:58,250
If you will excuse us...

530
00:45:58,476 --> 00:45:59,887
You knave!

531
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,319
Messages directed at
the royal family are black.

532
00:46:06,701 --> 00:46:09,618
There is no Baekje messenger
incognizant of that.

533
00:46:10,182 --> 00:46:11,663
Who are you?

534
00:46:37,645 --> 00:46:38,844
They're spies!

535
00:46:38,943 --> 00:46:40,476
Trail them!

536
00:46:40,603 --> 00:46:43,500
They're heading west!
Close the gates!

537
00:48:55,139 --> 00:48:56,508
There!

538
00:49:00,251 --> 00:49:01,599
Isn't that Yushin?

539
00:49:01,751 --> 00:49:03,061
Y...Yes!

540
00:49:03,284 --> 00:49:06,002
And Wolya is next to him.

541
00:49:08,476 --> 00:49:10,942
What is Yushin doing in Baekje?

542
00:49:11,057 --> 00:49:12,857
And with Wolya, at that?!

543
00:50:44,872 --> 00:50:46,721
Commander, hasten!

544
00:50:46,777 --> 00:50:48,930
Quick, Yushin! Now!

545
00:50:49,005 --> 00:50:52,264
We must hasten out of here!

546
00:50:53,362 --> 00:50:55,735
Trail them!

547
00:51:14,543 --> 00:51:15,993
How did it go?

548
00:51:16,123 --> 00:51:17,661
We could have gained possession
of their secret message,

549
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:19,029
but we lost it.

550
00:51:19,798 --> 00:51:23,319
We must treat your wound,
so let us go inside.

551
00:51:43,263 --> 00:51:45,717
There is a spy in Daeya Fortress.

552
00:51:50,141 --> 00:51:51,925
How did you know?

553
00:51:52,971 --> 00:51:55,327
Who was the man who will
open the gates listed on the map?

554
00:51:55,785 --> 00:51:58,243
Heuk something...

555
00:51:58,586 --> 00:52:00,485
But I couldn't see
the rest of the character.

556
00:52:00,611 --> 00:52:05,134
I saw the character Heuk myself.
His name must start with that.

557
00:52:05,570 --> 00:52:07,573
That is our spy.

558
00:52:10,756 --> 00:52:13,433
Seeing as he's entrusted
with opening the gates for them,

559
00:52:14,212 --> 00:52:16,457
he must be someone in the defense force.

560
00:52:17,965 --> 00:52:19,305
That is why...

561
00:52:19,981 --> 00:52:23,016
that Gyebaek was talking
about a blitzkrieg.

562
00:52:24,020 --> 00:52:29,000
Is that even possible in a
place like Daeya Fortress?

563
00:52:31,716 --> 00:52:35,673
Also, the Baekje army's supply lines...

564
00:52:36,957 --> 00:52:40,277
They were by no means sufficient,
if their destination was Daeya Fortress.

565
00:52:40,461 --> 00:52:44,467
Also, today alone I saw
two carrier pigeons already.

566
00:52:44,932 --> 00:52:47,853
They were all flying towards Shilla.

567
00:52:52,918 --> 00:52:54,710
How many cauldrons did you see?

568
00:52:54,879 --> 00:52:56,426
Two thousand.

569
00:52:57,914 --> 00:53:01,892
Then, their troops will
be over twenty thousand.

570
00:53:03,783 --> 00:53:06,901
Considering the supply lines I counted...

571
00:53:09,694 --> 00:53:11,889
It is enough for three days.

572
00:53:12,171 --> 00:53:15,162
They want to end it all in three days.

573
00:53:17,419 --> 00:53:18,840
We must hasten.

574
00:53:18,963 --> 00:53:21,231
We must head to Seorabeol right now.

575
00:53:22,653 --> 00:53:24,093
Run there with no rest.

576
00:53:24,276 --> 00:53:25,950
You must reach the
capital by the eventide.

577
00:53:26,059 --> 00:53:28,240
Yes.
Commander.

578
00:54:04,309 --> 00:54:05,499
Shall we trail them?

579
00:54:05,593 --> 00:54:06,387
No.

580
00:54:06,497 --> 00:54:09,021
All we need is to
capture Yushin and Wolya.

581
00:54:09,431 --> 00:54:11,721
Causing a commotion here
would be dangerous,

582
00:54:11,857 --> 00:54:14,360
so we will hit them
on their way to Shilla.

583
00:54:27,259 --> 00:54:28,670
Yushin.

584
00:54:30,997 --> 00:54:33,001
Is your motherland Shilla...

585
00:54:33,776 --> 00:54:35,514
or Gaya?

586
00:54:39,744 --> 00:54:41,628
Make up your mind.

587
00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:47,851
Do it!

588
00:54:51,401 --> 00:54:53,367
There is...

589
00:54:54,603 --> 00:54:56,214
no Gaya.

590
00:54:58,250 --> 00:55:00,304
Say what?

591
00:55:02,285 --> 00:55:04,218
Acknowledge it.

592
00:55:05,671 --> 00:55:08,860
For how much longer will you keep
putting all those people's lives at stake...

593
00:55:09,777 --> 00:55:12,288
for those paltry vagaries of yours?

594
00:55:15,093 --> 00:55:18,803
We finally see your true colors.

595
00:55:19,974 --> 00:55:24,579
Are you abandoning Gaya
for the sake of personal glory?

596
00:55:26,817 --> 00:55:28,919
Or is it devotion?

597
00:55:30,476 --> 00:55:33,478
Is it because you love Her Majesty?

598
00:55:39,089 --> 00:55:44,003
Or is it that honest soul of yours,
and its devotion to her cause?

599
00:55:44,257 --> 00:55:45,668
No.

600
00:55:46,839 --> 00:55:50,704
I am being much more
realistic than anyone else.

601
00:55:53,413 --> 00:55:55,953
Shilla has a seven century long legacy.

602
00:55:58,153 --> 00:56:00,298
A king of Gaya ancestry?!

603
00:56:02,682 --> 00:56:07,542
Do you really believe
it would make any sense?

604
00:56:08,027 --> 00:56:09,418
So?

605
00:56:11,309 --> 00:56:13,354
We have no other choice.

606
00:56:15,019 --> 00:56:17,432
Becoming the most
scrupulous of subjects.

607
00:56:18,243 --> 00:56:20,515
Only that will grant us survival.

608
00:56:23,389 --> 00:56:25,788
You knave!

609
00:56:25,985 --> 00:56:28,821
Our duty as Gaya's royal descendants...

610
00:56:30,260 --> 00:56:33,322
is to make sure all remaining
Gaya people are not oppressed,

611
00:56:33,589 --> 00:56:36,570
and that there will be a future
for their own descendants.

612
00:56:36,684 --> 00:56:38,680
It is making sure...

613
00:56:39,696 --> 00:56:42,447
Gaya's Kim clan does not disappear!

614
00:56:48,284 --> 00:56:49,797
And that is why...

615
00:56:51,030 --> 00:56:53,395
Gaya people must lead the way...

616
00:56:54,143 --> 00:56:56,904
in unifying the Three Kingdoms.

617
00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:01,775
Scrupulous subjects?!

618
00:57:03,158 --> 00:57:05,246
Unifying the Three Kingdoms?!

619
00:57:10,370 --> 00:57:12,656
Is that the grandiose principle...

620
00:57:14,828 --> 00:57:18,214
you abandoned Gaya for?

621
00:57:26,396 --> 00:57:28,245
Kim Yushin.

622
00:57:31,899 --> 00:57:34,466
Our alliance...

623
00:57:37,406 --> 00:57:39,177
is now over.

624
00:58:46,197 --> 00:58:47,683
Now is the time.

625
00:59:20,829 --> 00:59:25,683
<i>~ Daeya Fortress ~</i>

626
00:59:44,845 --> 00:59:46,542
Clear.

627
01:00:05,449 --> 01:00:06,761
<i>Say what?</i>

628
01:00:07,199 --> 01:00:08,960
<i>What is that supposed to mean?</i>

629
01:00:09,088 --> 01:00:12,235
<i>We're at war with Baekje!</i>

630
01:00:12,502 --> 01:00:15,121
<i>Daeya Fortress...
Daeya Fortress is in peril.</i>

631
01:00:15,701 --> 01:00:19,239
Did you contact the Commissioner,
Bidam, Chunchu and Lord Yongchun?

632
01:00:19,338 --> 01:00:22,766
Yes, I told all to
gather at the council hall.

633
01:00:23,084 --> 01:00:26,603
Send a messenger to Daeya Fortress
and order them to fortify,

634
01:00:26,759 --> 01:00:29,270
and also send communication to the
Bisa Plains, Iseo County and Daegaya,

635
01:00:29,411 --> 01:00:32,190
and tell them to transfer their forces
to Daeya Fortress immediately.

636
01:00:32,853 --> 01:00:34,504
I will.

637
01:00:45,009 --> 01:00:48,316
What is the matter?

638
01:00:48,553 --> 01:00:51,812
What is the reason we
were so suddenly summoned?

639
01:00:52,376 --> 01:00:54,013
We are at war.

640
01:00:56,316 --> 01:00:58,504
Your Majesty.
War?!

641
01:00:58,612 --> 01:01:01,095
What is that supposed to mean?

642
01:01:01,504 --> 01:01:04,726
Baekje's army is marching
towards Daeya Fortress.

643
01:01:04,820 --> 01:01:05,961
<i>What?</i>

644
01:01:06,067 --> 01:01:07,556
Daeya Fortress?!

645
01:01:07,719 --> 01:01:10,509
<i>Why would you be concerned about that?</i>

646
01:01:10,763 --> 01:01:14,274
It's not like this is the first
time they attack that place.

647
01:01:14,396 --> 01:01:16,518
There is a spy in Daeya Fortress!

648
01:01:16,644 --> 01:01:18,798
He will open the gates.

649
01:01:21,591 --> 01:01:26,255
Why is the Commissioner not here?

650
01:01:54,152 --> 01:01:55,944
Your Majesty.

651
01:02:02,942 --> 01:02:07,216
The Royal Inspectorate has
arrested Chief Marshal Yushin.

652
01:02:07,977 --> 01:02:09,839
What did you just say?

653
01:02:09,967 --> 01:02:15,329
We apprehended him in
Baekje territory for espionage.

654
01:02:15,582 --> 01:02:17,537
Espionage?!

655
01:02:17,639 --> 01:02:20,421
What are you talking about?

662
01:02:41,452 --> 01:02:44,962
<i>~ On The Next Episode Of ~
QUEEN ~*~ SEONDEOK</i>

663
01:02:46,230 --> 01:02:49,262
<i>What? Daeya Fortress?</i>

664
01:02:49,376 --> 01:02:51,041
<i>There is a spy in Daeya Fortress.</i>

665
01:02:51,224 --> 01:02:52,960
<i>He will open the gates.</i>

666
01:02:53,200 --> 01:02:57,531
According to Yushin's report, they
will attack within the next three days.

667
01:02:57,672 --> 01:03:00,506
<i>We will receive reinforcements
from Mitasan Fortress.</i>

668
01:03:00,618 --> 01:03:02,721
- Your Majesty!
- What is the matter?

669
01:03:02,848 --> 01:03:05,032
We received word that
Daeya Fortress is in peril.

670
01:03:05,157 --> 01:03:08,745
What you should be concerned
about is not Daeya Fortress,

671
01:03:08,914 --> 01:03:10,151
but your own survival.

672
01:03:10,259 --> 01:03:13,663
Are you suggesting to me
to abandon Yushin as well?

673
01:03:13,788 --> 01:03:15,552
Do you even have that answer?

674
01:03:15,641 --> 01:03:17,158
Yes, Your Majesty.

675
01:03:17,270 --> 01:03:18,851
<i>And that answer...</i>

676
01:03:20,183 --> 01:03:21,771
is none other than me,

677
01:03:22,270 --> 01:03:24,141
Kim Chunchu.
