WEBVTT

00:00:47.260 --> 00:00:50.138
THE PEOPLE, GROUPS, PLACES, AND INCIDENTS
IN THIS DRAMA ARE PURELY FICTIONAL

00:01:28.968 --> 00:01:30.178
Why...

00:01:32.180 --> 00:01:33.890
are you here?

00:01:40.897 --> 00:01:43.108
I am your concubine.

00:01:46.653 --> 00:01:48.947
I will live as your woman.

00:01:49.906 --> 00:01:51.407
To do that,

00:01:55.537 --> 00:01:57.330
I will become the Queen.

00:02:28.736 --> 00:02:30.446
Explain yourself.

00:02:34.951 --> 00:02:36.536
Tell me...

00:02:37.829 --> 00:02:38.955
the real reason.

00:02:42.834 --> 00:02:44.669
It is my choice.

00:03:02.979 --> 00:03:04.772
As an acknowledgment of her contributions

00:03:05.773 --> 00:03:07.483
I will allow her veil to be lifted.

00:03:09.068 --> 00:03:11.487
Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty.

00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:35.303
BLOODY HEART
EPISODE 7

00:03:44.896 --> 00:03:46.022
Who are you?

00:03:47.899 --> 00:03:49.234
Where is Lady Park?

00:03:51.069 --> 00:03:52.654
Where did you hide her?

00:03:52.737 --> 00:03:54.822
Lady Park is at the feast.

00:03:55.740 --> 00:03:57.367
Why do you look for her here?

00:03:57.450 --> 00:03:58.743
Silence!

00:04:00.453 --> 00:04:03.498
What trick are you two pulling?

00:04:03.623 --> 00:04:06.251
We would never do such a thing.

00:04:07.043 --> 00:04:09.212
I work for Lady Cho.

00:04:10.338 --> 00:04:11.464
What?

00:04:15.051 --> 00:04:18.096
I went to Chaeokdang
to run an errand for Lady Cho

00:04:18.263 --> 00:04:21.516
when he asked for my help.

00:04:21.849 --> 00:04:23.351
Please believe me.

00:04:23.643 --> 00:04:27.230
How dare you lie to my face?

00:04:29.941 --> 00:04:31.943
Tell me the truth now.

00:04:31.985 --> 00:04:33.653
Where is Lady Park?

00:04:33.778 --> 00:04:37.657
Please. I have no idea
what you are talking about.

00:04:37.991 --> 00:04:39.575
You wench!

00:04:39.659 --> 00:04:40.952
Chief Eunuch!

00:04:42.495 --> 00:04:44.122
Leave with the court lady.

00:05:07.103 --> 00:05:08.104
My lord.

00:05:09.731 --> 00:05:11.816
Lady Park can't be far.

00:05:11.899 --> 00:05:14.193
-We must hurry--
-Lady Park is at the feast.

00:05:16.738 --> 00:05:18.197
You deceived me.

00:05:19.115 --> 00:05:20.199
I…

00:05:20.325 --> 00:05:23.745
would not dare to deceive you.

00:05:24.120 --> 00:05:26.581
I'm certain she was planning to escape.

00:05:27.123 --> 00:05:31.294
How else would I have known
about Eunuch Jung leaving the palace?

00:05:32.211 --> 00:05:33.629
I will confirm

00:05:34.881 --> 00:05:36.215
whether you are lying or not.

00:05:37.008 --> 00:05:38.885
My lord!

00:05:39.302 --> 00:05:40.636
Please spare me of this place.

00:05:41.054 --> 00:05:43.598
My lord!

00:05:44.015 --> 00:05:45.141
Let me go.

00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:46.642
My lord!

00:05:57.153 --> 00:05:58.196
What happened?

00:05:59.447 --> 00:06:02.367
Miss decided to stay in the palace.

00:06:02.450 --> 00:06:04.160
You should have insisted she come.

00:06:04.327 --> 00:06:06.454
Didn't I tell you it is for her own good?

00:06:07.038 --> 00:06:10.166
She said she has unfinished business.

00:06:10.249 --> 00:06:12.168
The only reason I did as you said

00:06:12.251 --> 00:06:14.504
was because I thought Miss
wanted to escape.

00:06:14.879 --> 00:06:17.256
She should stay if that's her will.

00:06:36.609 --> 00:06:40.113
How could you be so cruel
to the Chief Eunuch?

00:06:41.906 --> 00:06:45.952
He insulted the royal family
with a heinous lie.

00:06:46.411 --> 00:06:47.787
Did you not tell me

00:06:48.079 --> 00:06:51.541
that Lady Park…
was planning to escape from the palace?

00:06:54.919 --> 00:06:56.796
You claimed His Majesty
was aiding her too.

00:06:56.838 --> 00:06:58.423
Stating that His Majesty and Lady Park…

00:07:04.554 --> 00:07:06.514
seemed to have a special relationship.

00:07:10.226 --> 00:07:11.394
That is a lie!

00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:15.731
I would not dare to tell such a lie.

00:07:17.233 --> 00:07:18.317
Please.

00:07:19.235 --> 00:07:23.406
I did not make such an absurd statement.

00:07:25.283 --> 00:07:26.534
That is enough.

00:07:27.118 --> 00:07:28.995
It is an insult to His Majesty

00:07:29.120 --> 00:07:30.872
for a servant to harm his close aide.

00:07:30.955 --> 00:07:34.417
The Chief Eunuch knows this
better than anyone.

00:07:34.876 --> 00:07:36.252
He will never speak.

00:07:38.546 --> 00:07:40.756
What is it that you want to confirm?

00:07:41.549 --> 00:07:45.553
I sensed His Majesty and you
were hiding something from me.

00:07:46.846 --> 00:07:48.681
My doubts would have been confirmed

00:07:49.974 --> 00:07:51.684
if it was because of Lady Park.

00:07:57.148 --> 00:07:58.274
My niece

00:07:59.317 --> 00:08:01.611
has the King's affection.

00:08:02.987 --> 00:08:07.700
That would explain
why His Majesty has been postponing

00:08:09.076 --> 00:08:10.703
his consummation with Lady Cho.

00:08:12.205 --> 00:08:15.583
Did I not tell you, Minister?

00:08:17.001 --> 00:08:19.170
Do not trust His Majesty.

00:08:34.477 --> 00:08:37.063
Put the sword down this instant!

00:08:57.750 --> 00:08:59.210
Did you forget?

00:08:59.335 --> 00:09:01.045
You and I.

00:09:02.505 --> 00:09:05.049
We were comrades
who went through life and death.

00:09:08.928 --> 00:09:10.513
We were friends.

00:09:37.957 --> 00:09:38.833
My lord.

00:09:39.458 --> 00:09:43.254
I will report the atrocious acts
of Minister Cho

00:09:43.838 --> 00:09:45.798
to His Majesty.

00:09:46.299 --> 00:09:47.466
How dare he!

00:09:48.801 --> 00:09:50.803
He had the nerve
to slander you and Lady Park--

00:09:50.845 --> 00:09:52.972
You no longer have the King's favor.

00:09:53.556 --> 00:09:55.683
No servant would fear you now.

00:09:56.726 --> 00:09:58.477
It seems like His Majesty

00:09:58.561 --> 00:10:01.564
preferred you better as a watchman.

00:10:02.481 --> 00:10:04.692
You became aware of it.

00:10:04.817 --> 00:10:07.862
That's why you went around
looking for a way to save yourself.

00:10:13.743 --> 00:10:14.869
Listen, Chief Eunuch.

00:10:17.580 --> 00:10:19.582
Prove how useful you can be.

00:10:21.000 --> 00:10:23.127
A beast with no use…

00:10:25.129 --> 00:10:26.631
is nothing but prey.

00:10:43.481 --> 00:10:45.775
Tell Inspector General Yoon

00:10:45.858 --> 00:10:48.527
to seize Eunuch Heo's account book.

00:10:48.611 --> 00:10:50.029
I shall relay the message.

00:11:07.672 --> 00:11:09.340
Why did she return?

00:11:11.175 --> 00:11:12.343
Why in the world?

00:11:20.893 --> 00:11:22.061
There is something

00:11:23.062 --> 00:11:25.064
I must do in this palace now.

00:11:27.650 --> 00:11:29.568
A day will come

00:11:30.903 --> 00:11:32.071
when I can tell you.

00:11:52.425 --> 00:11:54.260
I will make another opportunity.

00:11:56.220 --> 00:11:57.555
There is no need.

00:11:58.681 --> 00:12:01.142
I plan to live in the palace now.

00:12:02.393 --> 00:12:03.436
My lady.

00:12:04.520 --> 00:12:05.521
That is right.

00:12:07.231 --> 00:12:09.984
I am Lady Park.
A second junior rank concubine.

00:12:10.109 --> 00:12:11.861
I am Councilor Park's niece.

00:12:12.528 --> 00:12:14.947
And I may even become the queen one day.

00:12:19.994 --> 00:12:22.580
Why the sudden change of heart?

00:12:23.164 --> 00:12:26.000
People I consider my family
are locked up as I said.

00:12:26.125 --> 00:12:27.585
I will save them--

00:12:27.710 --> 00:12:29.420
How will you?

00:12:31.964 --> 00:12:35.009
Will you command the governor
to release them under the King's order?

00:12:35.134 --> 00:12:38.262
Or do you plan to save them
by leading an army?

00:12:39.263 --> 00:12:41.182
Even if that were possible,

00:12:42.558 --> 00:12:43.851
yet another life

00:12:45.269 --> 00:12:47.563
would be sacrificed for that cause.

00:12:55.654 --> 00:12:57.490
I no longer believe in you.

00:13:00.284 --> 00:13:01.744
I will become the queen...

00:13:02.328 --> 00:13:04.580
and release them myself.

00:13:15.674 --> 00:13:18.344
I gave you my answer, Councilor.

00:13:26.769 --> 00:13:27.895
Does my answer

00:13:28.813 --> 00:13:30.064
suffice?

00:13:31.607 --> 00:13:33.067
It does.

00:13:33.526 --> 00:13:36.070
Then release the people
of Bamboo Grove Village.

00:13:36.487 --> 00:13:38.781
You threatened me
into becoming a concubine.

00:13:38.823 --> 00:13:40.950
But staying at the palace is my will.

00:13:41.909 --> 00:13:42.952
I…

00:13:43.828 --> 00:13:47.915
do not trust
the heart and words of others.

00:13:48.499 --> 00:13:51.085
My authority over their life or death

00:13:51.710 --> 00:13:55.256
will help me trust you, Lady Park.

00:14:07.268 --> 00:14:08.269
I…

00:14:09.353 --> 00:14:11.647
plan to use the King's affection.

00:14:12.523 --> 00:14:17.236
So before His Majesty makes Lady Cho
the queen out of spite towards you,

00:14:17.987 --> 00:14:20.072
hurry and appoint me as queen.

00:14:21.365 --> 00:14:22.658
Will you…

00:14:24.660 --> 00:14:26.161
be able to sway the King's heart?

00:14:26.662 --> 00:14:27.997
Answer me this.

00:14:28.080 --> 00:14:31.375
Will you even be able to mention
this matter in the royal court?

00:14:32.376 --> 00:14:36.130
I have heard you could not bring it up
due to the three-year mourning period.

00:14:37.298 --> 00:14:38.716
Can you destroy…

00:14:40.759 --> 00:14:42.136
their justification?

00:14:52.313 --> 00:14:53.689
Can you do it?

00:14:57.693 --> 00:14:59.278
It is not a problem.

00:15:07.202 --> 00:15:08.579
I was prepared

00:15:09.788 --> 00:15:12.791
to bite my own tongue and die instead.

00:15:13.334 --> 00:15:14.585
I swear

00:15:14.627 --> 00:15:20.007
I did not tell them you sent me
to Chaeokdang to spy on Lady Park.

00:15:21.300 --> 00:15:22.426
That is why

00:15:23.010 --> 00:15:25.137
even when I got caught
by the Chief Eunuch,

00:15:25.804 --> 00:15:28.349
I insisted that was not the case.

00:15:28.432 --> 00:15:32.144
That you never ordered such a command.

00:15:32.227 --> 00:15:36.357
That's how I ended up outside the palace.
Please believe me.

00:15:36.440 --> 00:15:38.484
Enough whining and leave us.

00:15:41.153 --> 00:15:42.196
Yes, my lady.

00:15:48.911 --> 00:15:52.498
How could you order your own
court lady to spy on Chaeokdang?

00:15:53.624 --> 00:15:56.752
Ttonggeum insisted first. So I let her be.

00:15:56.794 --> 00:15:58.837
Yes, I'm sure that was the case.

00:15:59.338 --> 00:16:00.756
It's the truth.

00:16:02.049 --> 00:16:03.926
But why did you call for Ttonggeum
all of a sudden?

00:16:03.968 --> 00:16:05.344
I don't know either.

00:16:05.761 --> 00:16:08.347
I was simply following Father's order.

00:16:08.973 --> 00:16:13.060
How did he know
that Ttonggeum left the palace?

00:16:22.653 --> 00:16:26.573
Win the King's affection
by using whatever means necessary.

00:16:26.865 --> 00:16:30.995
I will find a way to justify
the need to appoint a queen.

00:16:48.971 --> 00:16:50.222
I checked in on Yeonghwadang.

00:16:50.889 --> 00:16:53.392
That girl, Ttonggeum
didn't leave Lady Cho's side

00:16:53.434 --> 00:16:56.020
as she slandered you.

00:16:56.854 --> 00:16:58.439
I told her to go far away.

00:17:06.280 --> 00:17:07.322
Court Lady Choi.

00:17:07.406 --> 00:17:09.533
Any word from the Queen Dowager?

00:17:09.616 --> 00:17:13.287
Yes, she said you may head over now.

00:17:23.714 --> 00:17:28.010
Shall I prepare shades
for the Queen Dowager, Your Majesty?

00:17:28.052 --> 00:17:28.927
Yes, see to it.

00:17:29.553 --> 00:17:31.430
I will see to it myself.

00:17:36.185 --> 00:17:39.646
The Queen Dowager disdains the smell here.

00:17:39.730 --> 00:17:41.857
What is her intention in coming here?

00:17:46.945 --> 00:17:48.280
Or is Lady Park behind this?

00:17:53.869 --> 00:17:54.953
Your Majesty.

00:17:55.454 --> 00:17:58.749
The Queen Dowager sent word
she'll be absent due to an upset stomach.

00:17:59.291 --> 00:18:00.626
How unfortunate.

00:18:01.585 --> 00:18:02.961
I will send a royal physician over.

00:18:03.629 --> 00:18:04.880
Thank you for your grace.

00:18:07.341 --> 00:18:09.468
All the horses seem docile.

00:18:24.525 --> 00:18:26.235
This is truly a gentle one.

00:18:29.488 --> 00:18:33.200
Going out for a ride on a beautiful day
like this would be perfect.

00:18:37.496 --> 00:18:40.958
I wished to see your face
in broad daylight.

00:18:42.918 --> 00:18:44.711
My wish has been fulfilled.

00:18:57.641 --> 00:18:59.268
I won't disturb you anymore.

00:19:02.521 --> 00:19:05.858
Someone needs to ride the horse
in order to check its condition.

00:19:09.111 --> 00:19:10.445
You may follow.

00:19:56.491 --> 00:19:58.577
I will find another way for you to leave.

00:19:59.203 --> 00:20:00.746
I will not leave.

00:20:02.039 --> 00:20:04.041
I plan to spend my life here.

00:20:13.508 --> 00:20:15.594
What are you hiding from me?

00:20:19.014 --> 00:20:21.308
I entered the secret passage
for a brief moment.

00:20:22.309 --> 00:20:24.603
It was pitch black and damp.

00:20:25.812 --> 00:20:28.023
I was afraid to take a step forward.

00:20:31.526 --> 00:20:32.736
How…

00:20:35.489 --> 00:20:36.907
did you take that path…

00:20:38.909 --> 00:20:40.535
every 15 days?

00:20:57.386 --> 00:20:59.471
Did Councilor Park order you?

00:21:01.348 --> 00:21:03.517
Did he order you to tempt me?

00:21:04.643 --> 00:21:06.395
To get a hold of my affection?

00:21:06.478 --> 00:21:07.646
So that…

00:21:09.815 --> 00:21:11.525
you can become the queen?

00:21:13.777 --> 00:21:17.531
Did you truly come back to become Queen?

00:21:21.493 --> 00:21:23.370
What is going on?

00:21:26.665 --> 00:21:27.958
Your Majesty.

00:21:31.253 --> 00:21:32.587
I love you.

00:21:35.090 --> 00:21:37.384
I wanted to reveal my feelings.

00:21:38.969 --> 00:21:40.095
If it were even for a moment…

00:21:42.681 --> 00:21:45.267
I wanted time to be with you.

00:21:48.520 --> 00:21:49.730
I…

00:21:52.399 --> 00:21:54.109
love you too.

00:22:03.994 --> 00:22:06.830
But my love and feelings

00:22:07.622 --> 00:22:09.166
are completely useless.

00:22:10.042 --> 00:22:11.835
You are Councilor Park's niece,

00:22:11.877 --> 00:22:13.712
an enemy I must eradicate.

00:22:14.838 --> 00:22:17.632
No matter whom I love,

00:22:18.300 --> 00:22:19.718
that fact will never change.

00:22:21.595 --> 00:22:23.138
You are not…

00:22:25.766 --> 00:22:26.850
the woman I need.

00:22:29.144 --> 00:22:30.145
So…

00:22:32.773 --> 00:22:34.358
do not try to tempt me.

00:22:54.211 --> 00:22:56.338
Is the King still with Lady Park?

00:22:56.463 --> 00:22:57.339
Yes, Your Highness.

00:22:57.464 --> 00:23:00.175
They went horseback riding together.

00:23:00.592 --> 00:23:04.054
There's no way he wouldn't see through
this obvious trick.

00:23:06.181 --> 00:23:08.058
I sense his relationship with Lady Park

00:23:09.267 --> 00:23:10.811
is deeper than I thought.

00:23:22.614 --> 00:23:23.907
During the three-step selection,

00:23:23.990 --> 00:23:26.827
you said my desires
would only be half-fulfilled.

00:23:27.411 --> 00:23:28.703
You were right.

00:23:29.287 --> 00:23:32.499
-I'm impressed with your gift.
-Thank you, Your Highness.

00:23:39.673 --> 00:23:42.134
Find out a consummate date
that will ensure the birth of a son.

00:23:43.635 --> 00:23:45.137
My ability falls short…

00:23:45.220 --> 00:23:47.681
You communicate with the spirit.

00:23:48.265 --> 00:23:50.517
Try begging her by saying
your life depends on it.

00:23:50.642 --> 00:23:51.643
I am sure

00:23:53.103 --> 00:23:54.229
she will answer you then.

00:24:04.156 --> 00:24:07.993
There's talk of a monk who is thought to
be the incarnation of Buddha in Tongjin.

00:24:08.326 --> 00:24:09.828
Visit that monk.

00:24:38.440 --> 00:24:40.734
Holding a temporary
civil service examination

00:24:41.151 --> 00:24:43.236
to select an official was a wise decision.

00:24:45.238 --> 00:24:46.239
Your Majesty.

00:24:47.073 --> 00:24:48.909
The royal court is not understaffed.

00:24:49.326 --> 00:24:51.536
What is your reason
for conducting this exam?

00:24:52.162 --> 00:24:54.664
I ask you to choose
from families within the royal court.

00:24:54.748 --> 00:24:56.750
Why are you against this?

00:24:57.209 --> 00:25:00.462
The method you suggest
only brings in pathetic officials.

00:25:00.670 --> 00:25:03.507
Nonetheless, we can't allow the Sarim
into the royal court!

00:25:10.931 --> 00:25:12.182
Your Majesty!

00:25:23.109 --> 00:25:27.364
The King is the spitting image
of that scholar.

00:25:28.573 --> 00:25:30.867
Why are you here, Lady Cho?

00:25:30.951 --> 00:25:32.285
I called for her.

00:25:33.787 --> 00:25:37.207
Spend some quality time
at the back garden.

00:25:37.290 --> 00:25:38.708
I am grateful, Your Majesty.

00:25:39.417 --> 00:25:43.547
I am overjoyed by your thoughtfulness.

00:25:50.220 --> 00:25:52.806
I complained about how distant we became.

00:25:52.889 --> 00:25:54.891
He kindly made time for us to meet.

00:25:57.102 --> 00:25:58.103
You like him that much?

00:25:58.687 --> 00:25:59.896
Absolutely.

00:26:00.814 --> 00:26:05.610
His Majesty is a loving husband
just like you and my brother.

00:26:08.905 --> 00:26:10.031
My niece

00:26:10.532 --> 00:26:13.034
has the King's affection.

00:26:15.579 --> 00:26:17.414
Without Minister Cho's support,

00:26:17.831 --> 00:26:20.250
the temporary civil service examination
will not be possible.

00:26:20.333 --> 00:26:21.543
I am aware.

00:26:22.586 --> 00:26:23.837
But it seems

00:26:24.921 --> 00:26:26.923
Minister Cho doesn't trust me.

00:27:07.297 --> 00:27:10.508
What is making you hesitate so much?

00:27:13.762 --> 00:27:16.473
Is it about speeding up
the process to select the queen?

00:27:26.900 --> 00:27:27.984
Your Highness.

00:27:30.779 --> 00:27:31.696
I ask…

00:27:34.199 --> 00:27:36.201
you become our irrefutable reason.

00:27:46.252 --> 00:27:47.796
For that to happen,

00:27:49.381 --> 00:27:51.341
I will have to vacate the Internal Court.

00:27:52.509 --> 00:27:54.678
If Minister Cho pressures His Majesty,

00:27:55.512 --> 00:27:57.138
it won't be easy.

00:27:57.222 --> 00:27:59.432
You come begging to me

00:28:00.266 --> 00:28:02.352
because you can't go up against that fool?

00:28:10.402 --> 00:28:11.736
It is for the country.

00:28:17.242 --> 00:28:19.953
It is for the royal family's stability.

00:28:22.372 --> 00:28:23.415
I beg you.

00:28:25.375 --> 00:28:27.127
As the head of the royal family,

00:28:28.128 --> 00:28:30.296
please make a decision.

00:28:49.399 --> 00:28:50.191
I beg you…

00:28:53.570 --> 00:28:54.863
Please…

00:28:59.033 --> 00:29:01.202
be His Majesty's royal concubine.

00:29:49.250 --> 00:29:51.628
If I suddenly fall ill,

00:29:53.630 --> 00:29:55.340
everyone will become suspicious.

00:30:05.934 --> 00:30:06.768
Your Highness.

00:30:25.078 --> 00:30:26.371
It's dangerous.

00:30:27.497 --> 00:30:28.665
Move away from the edge.

00:30:29.999 --> 00:30:31.960
I will grant your wish.

00:30:33.586 --> 00:30:34.671
For you…

00:30:35.797 --> 00:30:38.508
I will offer myself as cause
to justify the selection.

00:30:47.892 --> 00:30:50.728
That look of worry for me on your face.

00:30:51.312 --> 00:30:53.815
That is more than enough for me.

00:31:45.074 --> 00:31:46.534
Why?

00:31:47.952 --> 00:31:49.329
What is making you this sick?

00:31:51.205 --> 00:31:52.332
Is it time

00:31:53.207 --> 00:31:54.626
for me to let you go?

00:32:33.706 --> 00:32:35.667
How are you feeling?

00:32:37.543 --> 00:32:38.670
Never again.

00:32:39.379 --> 00:32:41.673
Do not ever do that again.

00:32:44.175 --> 00:32:48.388
How could you always be so reckless?

00:32:49.847 --> 00:32:50.974
Always?

00:32:54.686 --> 00:32:57.271
You always save me.

00:32:58.481 --> 00:32:59.774
That is why.

00:33:01.150 --> 00:33:02.986
I act recklessly with ease.

00:33:11.577 --> 00:33:13.037
Why is the royal physician outside?

00:33:14.580 --> 00:33:16.749
His Majesty enters.

00:33:23.881 --> 00:33:29.178
I came running to you
the instant I heard you fell in the pond.

00:33:29.637 --> 00:33:31.055
What happened?

00:33:31.180 --> 00:33:33.433
Is it true that you tripped?

00:33:33.641 --> 00:33:37.311
Yes, now please stop shouting.

00:33:38.604 --> 00:33:40.106
It's making me dizzy.

00:33:47.905 --> 00:33:50.908
The royal physician will do his best.

00:33:54.746 --> 00:33:56.622
So please, do not worry.

00:33:59.917 --> 00:34:01.627
Everyone, leave me.

00:34:44.295 --> 00:34:47.965
The Internal Court is empty now.

00:35:22.041 --> 00:35:23.292
Do you

00:35:23.417 --> 00:35:27.171
really promise to let me go
if I tell you what I know?

00:35:31.008 --> 00:35:33.553
I will if you tell me something useful.

00:35:35.930 --> 00:35:37.140
Our lady

00:35:37.932 --> 00:35:40.476
was brought to our village by someone.

00:35:40.560 --> 00:35:41.894
Who was it?

00:35:42.311 --> 00:35:44.021
He looked like a eunuch.

00:35:44.147 --> 00:35:45.648
I clearly heard

00:35:46.065 --> 00:35:49.193
Master Lim ask
about eunuchs in the palace.

00:35:49.318 --> 00:35:50.194
A eunuch?

00:36:06.252 --> 00:36:08.462
I've been suffering from nightmares
ever since I fell.

00:36:08.588 --> 00:36:10.631
It's been so long
since I slept through the night.

00:36:12.049 --> 00:36:16.053
Which is why I will go to Prince Seogang's
residence and recuperate there.

00:36:16.762 --> 00:36:19.056
-I'm heartbroken, Your Highness.
-I'm heartbroken, Your Highness.

00:36:19.599 --> 00:36:20.892
While I am away,

00:36:22.602 --> 00:36:24.896
I would like the two of you
to oversee the Internal Court.

00:36:32.361 --> 00:36:35.198
Discuss and tend to events
that have been postponed.

00:36:35.823 --> 00:36:38.367
Including the banquet in honor of me.

00:36:39.911 --> 00:36:41.245
How surprising.

00:36:41.370 --> 00:36:44.790
I thought she would entrust you
with everything, but I was wrong.

00:36:46.500 --> 00:36:50.296
I will show her I am an indispensable
member of the Internal Court.

00:36:51.005 --> 00:36:53.090
That is already the case, Lady Cho.

00:36:53.216 --> 00:36:56.636
Not to mention
how valuable you are to His Majesty.

00:37:13.277 --> 00:37:14.320
Eumjeon.

00:37:15.529 --> 00:37:18.824
If any one of Lady Cho's people
picks a fight, make sure to fight back.

00:37:19.450 --> 00:37:21.577
The more noise, the better.

00:37:23.246 --> 00:37:24.288
Yes, Lady Park.

00:37:25.331 --> 00:37:26.749
-My gosh.
-What is that?

00:37:26.832 --> 00:37:29.543
-What's all this ruckus?
-Rats, Court Lady Kim.

00:37:29.585 --> 00:37:31.420
There are rats over there.

00:37:32.964 --> 00:37:36.133
Gosh, whoever it is
rounded up a whole bunch.

00:37:36.175 --> 00:37:38.678
Whoever it was,
they went through a lot of trouble.

00:37:38.719 --> 00:37:40.596
Lady Cho mustn't see that hideous sight.

00:37:40.680 --> 00:37:42.556
-Clean it up this instant.
-But…

00:37:42.682 --> 00:37:44.183
Now.

00:37:47.895 --> 00:37:48.980
I want dried persimmons.

00:37:49.063 --> 00:37:51.607
-We'll give you one.
-You'll get it Ttonggeum.

00:37:51.691 --> 00:37:53.693
-Please, just quickly clean it up.
-I want five.

00:37:53.776 --> 00:37:55.152
-Okay, sure.
-We'll give you five.

00:37:55.778 --> 00:37:57.780
Goodness.

00:37:58.364 --> 00:37:59.448
Court Lady Kim.

00:37:59.490 --> 00:38:02.326
Chaeokdang must be responsible for this.
They are trying to hex us.

00:38:02.451 --> 00:38:04.620
This isn't the first time
something like this happened.

00:38:04.704 --> 00:38:06.872
Stop your nonsense
and prepare for the banquet.

00:38:06.998 --> 00:38:10.209
Even if we wanted to, we're being
bullied by the Supplies Officer.

00:38:10.293 --> 00:38:12.003
This is all because of Chaeokdang.

00:38:14.046 --> 00:38:15.589
How could you do this again?

00:38:16.173 --> 00:38:18.759
You must open the storage for us
so we can prepare for the banquet.

00:38:19.051 --> 00:38:20.303
It is beyond my authority.

00:38:20.720 --> 00:38:23.806
Chaeokdang requested the goods first.
So there's nothing I can do.

00:38:23.889 --> 00:38:25.891
We clearly requested it first.

00:38:25.933 --> 00:38:27.018
Court Lady Kim.

00:38:27.101 --> 00:38:28.894
This is not the time to be stubborn.

00:38:30.187 --> 00:38:31.188
What?

00:38:32.315 --> 00:38:36.027
How dare you talk that way to her?

00:38:36.110 --> 00:38:38.612
-Know your place, you wench.
-What?

00:38:39.196 --> 00:38:40.614
You had this coming.

00:38:40.740 --> 00:38:43.743
-What did you say?
-Stop this!

00:39:00.051 --> 00:39:03.220
Tell me some scandalous news.

00:39:04.263 --> 00:39:06.766
Something the supervising
court ladies know,

00:39:06.807 --> 00:39:08.642
but choose to silence it.

00:39:10.644 --> 00:39:13.647
The bigger the noise and commotion,
the better.

00:39:21.906 --> 00:39:24.075
A royal family member indebted to you

00:39:24.200 --> 00:39:26.494
committing adultery with a court lady
violates moral code.

00:39:26.577 --> 00:39:29.497
This disgusting act was conducted
at the vacant Crown Prince's Palace.

00:39:29.538 --> 00:39:31.707
I suspect this to be an act of treason.

00:39:31.791 --> 00:39:35.002
They must be sentenced
to exemplary punishment, Your Majesty.

00:39:35.086 --> 00:39:38.714
Moreover, the scandalous events
that have been occurring

00:39:38.798 --> 00:39:41.217
within the palace are unspeakable.

00:39:41.300 --> 00:39:44.387
It's unacceptable that servants
are taking sides and fighting.

00:39:44.720 --> 00:39:48.099
This is all due to the fact
that the queen's position is vacant.

00:39:48.140 --> 00:39:50.393
I plead you will hurry
and select your queen

00:39:50.434 --> 00:39:53.020
to bring back order in the Internal Court.

00:39:56.524 --> 00:39:58.943
His Majesty set this beautiful precedent

00:39:59.026 --> 00:40:02.029
of mourning for three years
to pay respects to the late Queen.

00:40:02.113 --> 00:40:04.031
How could you suggest
he dispose of that courtesy?

00:40:04.115 --> 00:40:07.701
I strongly agree with the Chief Scholar.

00:40:08.452 --> 00:40:11.705
I have made an avowal
regarding the late Queen.

00:40:12.581 --> 00:40:14.417
I can't go back on my word.

00:40:15.459 --> 00:40:18.045
Flog the court ladies
involved in the gang fight.

00:40:18.629 --> 00:40:20.548
Once the Queen Dowager returns,

00:40:20.631 --> 00:40:22.258
it will be settled at the Internal Court.

00:40:23.759 --> 00:40:26.470
Prince Cheongsan will pay
for his crime with exile.

00:40:27.263 --> 00:40:28.472
As for the court lady,

00:40:29.849 --> 00:40:31.267
execute her.

00:40:51.662 --> 00:40:54.748
His Majesty will play a bad hand.

00:40:55.374 --> 00:40:57.376
Members of the royal family will swarm in.

00:40:58.002 --> 00:41:01.088
He'll be forced to select a queen.

00:41:08.804 --> 00:41:13.809
Please revoke your royal command
to exile Prince Cheongsan.

00:41:13.893 --> 00:41:16.020
-Please revoke your royal command
-Please revoke your royal command

00:41:16.061 --> 00:41:18.481
-to exile Prince Cheongsan.
-to exile Prince Cheongsan.

00:41:18.522 --> 00:41:23.486
Please revoke your royal command
to exile Prince Cheongsan.

00:41:23.903 --> 00:41:26.030
-Please revoke your royal command
-Please revoke your royal command

00:41:26.071 --> 00:41:28.032
-to exile Prince Cheongsan.
-to exile Prince Cheongsan.

00:41:34.497 --> 00:41:35.498
Your Majesty.

00:41:35.539 --> 00:41:37.333
It's precedent to punish
a royal family member

00:41:37.374 --> 00:41:40.211
who has committed adultery
with a court lady to probation.

00:41:40.336 --> 00:41:44.632
How could you sentence your family
to such a cruel punishment?

00:41:45.132 --> 00:41:47.134
-Uncle.
-The truth is

00:41:47.218 --> 00:41:51.055
you failed to rule your court lady.
This responsibility falls on you.

00:41:51.096 --> 00:41:54.850
I beg that you revoke your royal command
to exile Prince Cheongsan.

00:41:54.934 --> 00:41:57.228
-Please revoke your royal command
-Please revoke your royal command

00:41:57.353 --> 00:41:59.355
-to exile Prince Cheongsan.
-to exile Prince Cheongsan.

00:42:00.105 --> 00:42:00.981
Your Majesty.

00:42:01.565 --> 00:42:04.068
Do not forgive your relatives' arrogance.

00:42:04.109 --> 00:42:07.071
How dare the royal relatives
get involved with matters of the court?

00:42:08.656 --> 00:42:09.657
Your Majesty.

00:42:10.074 --> 00:42:13.410
We argue this happened
due to the absence of a queen.

00:42:13.536 --> 00:42:16.372
This is all because the Chief Scholar
pushed for the three-year mourning

00:42:16.455 --> 00:42:19.250
and put a halt to selecting a queen.

00:42:19.667 --> 00:42:20.543
Prince!

00:42:35.849 --> 00:42:38.894
Strip Chief Scholar Kim Chiwon
of his official title

00:42:38.978 --> 00:42:41.981
and bring order to the Internal Court.

00:42:42.106 --> 00:42:45.693
-Please bring order to the Internal Court.
-Please bring order to the Internal Court.

00:42:45.985 --> 00:42:47.111
Your Majesty.

00:42:47.152 --> 00:42:49.697
Raise your guards against
the royal family members

00:42:49.780 --> 00:42:51.865
who overstep their boundaries
by interjecting in state affairs.

00:42:51.991 --> 00:42:55.327
-Raise your guards against them.
-Raise your guards against them.

00:42:56.870 --> 00:43:00.583
-Please bring order to the Internal Court.
-Please bring order to the Internal Court.

00:43:00.708 --> 00:43:04.587
-Raise your guards against them.
-Raise your guards against them.

00:43:09.300 --> 00:43:10.301
Kyun.

00:43:14.305 --> 00:43:15.431
Yes, Your Majesty.

00:43:15.931 --> 00:43:17.933
It started at the Supplies Office.

00:43:18.017 --> 00:43:22.021
Find out whether
this was all a coincidence

00:43:23.731 --> 00:43:24.898
or a scheme.

00:43:33.532 --> 00:43:35.075
Are you the Supplies Officer?

00:43:35.743 --> 00:43:36.785
Who are you?

00:43:40.372 --> 00:43:42.833
Who ordered you to start a quarrel
amongst the Ladies'

00:43:43.500 --> 00:43:44.543
court ladies?

00:43:54.219 --> 00:43:56.263
His Majesty enters!

00:44:06.940 --> 00:44:08.567
Do you know Supplies Officer Han?

00:44:12.404 --> 00:44:13.364
I do.

00:44:13.405 --> 00:44:16.700
He claims he was ordered to start
a quarrel amongst the court ladies.

00:44:17.284 --> 00:44:18.535
He named your Court Lady…

00:44:21.580 --> 00:44:23.707
as the abettor.

00:44:35.135 --> 00:44:36.428
Who ordered you?

00:44:43.686 --> 00:44:46.397
Lady Park is innocent.

00:44:46.522 --> 00:44:50.693
My excessive loyalty to my master
led me to act on my own accord.

00:44:50.734 --> 00:44:51.694
Which master?

00:44:57.241 --> 00:44:58.575
Shall I hand this over
to the State Tribunal?

00:45:01.829 --> 00:45:03.122
It was my order.

00:45:06.709 --> 00:45:09.878
She is my own, so punish me instead.

00:45:10.462 --> 00:45:11.714
I doubt

00:45:12.589 --> 00:45:14.425
you have anyone to call your own here.

00:45:17.261 --> 00:45:18.303
I do.

00:45:19.471 --> 00:45:24.017
I requested Councilor Park
that I may have command over them.

00:45:24.059 --> 00:45:25.269
Is that not right?

00:45:29.565 --> 00:45:30.733
Leave us.

00:45:58.761 --> 00:46:00.637
Was it truly your doing?

00:46:03.891 --> 00:46:04.767
Yes.

00:46:05.601 --> 00:46:06.643
Have you

00:46:08.353 --> 00:46:09.897
truly…

00:46:12.775 --> 00:46:15.194
decided to live as Councilor Park's niece
to become Queen?

00:46:17.780 --> 00:46:19.114
Did you forget?

00:46:19.782 --> 00:46:20.783
Councilor Park…

00:46:21.492 --> 00:46:23.827
is both an enemy of mine and yours.

00:46:24.703 --> 00:46:26.622
What do you plan to gain
from leeching on him?

00:46:27.706 --> 00:46:29.249
Is it because of your father's identity?

00:46:33.253 --> 00:46:34.338
I once…

00:46:36.799 --> 00:46:38.509
had a dream.

00:46:43.013 --> 00:46:45.641
I dreamt of catching the real culprit
who poisoned Queen Inyoung

00:46:47.226 --> 00:46:49.520
to clear my father's name.

00:46:54.691 --> 00:46:55.943
Now…

00:46:59.530 --> 00:47:00.823
that is no longer the case.

00:47:02.950 --> 00:47:04.117
Lady Park.

00:47:07.412 --> 00:47:09.832
You didn't return to become queen.

00:47:15.170 --> 00:47:17.381
So tell me why you returned.

00:47:19.383 --> 00:47:20.551
My people…

00:47:22.553 --> 00:47:25.013
came here for my sake.

00:47:28.892 --> 00:47:31.144
I lost my parents and relatives.

00:47:33.188 --> 00:47:35.858
Surviving alone once is enough.

00:47:38.277 --> 00:47:39.736
I can't run away again…

00:47:41.697 --> 00:47:45.200
and spend my life as a living corpse.

00:47:52.499 --> 00:47:53.709
Tell me.

00:47:56.420 --> 00:47:58.755
What is it that you have planned?

00:48:05.470 --> 00:48:06.722
Your Majesty.

00:48:08.765 --> 00:48:10.642
Carry on your path.

00:48:15.022 --> 00:48:17.316
I will do what I must.

00:49:01.944 --> 00:49:03.153
He plans to use

00:49:03.236 --> 00:49:06.365
the temporary civil service examination
to appoint Sarim members to office.

00:49:06.406 --> 00:49:08.867
Have you no clue
what the Sarim is proclaiming?

00:49:08.951 --> 00:49:10.786
Removal of honorary positions
and noble titles.

00:49:11.370 --> 00:49:14.122
Confiscate the slaves
that were bestowed to our lands.

00:49:14.247 --> 00:49:17.376
They are out to kill us.
We can't allow them into the court.

00:49:17.501 --> 00:49:20.128
Uncle. He only appointed
a couple of civil officials.

00:49:20.253 --> 00:49:23.131
I'm upset because
I can see right through his scheme.

00:49:29.846 --> 00:49:31.098
Uncle!

00:49:31.974 --> 00:49:33.141
Uncle--

00:49:46.279 --> 00:49:48.323
The Minister is understandably upset.

00:49:49.116 --> 00:49:52.160
His title was handed to him thanks to you.

00:49:53.161 --> 00:49:55.288
If the Sarim weeds out
unqualified officials,

00:49:55.414 --> 00:49:58.417
the Minister of Personnel
will be the first to go.

00:49:59.459 --> 00:50:01.545
Are you here to shame me?

00:50:06.133 --> 00:50:09.052
You led the dethroning of the King.

00:50:09.136 --> 00:50:13.015
Nobody minds your decision
of helping your brother-in-law.

00:50:26.486 --> 00:50:29.156
The sword I held that day

00:50:29.197 --> 00:50:31.575
felt so heavy and burdensome.

00:50:32.451 --> 00:50:34.494
Whenever I felt like running away,

00:50:34.578 --> 00:50:37.039
I cast my eyes on your back
that was leading us.

00:50:37.164 --> 00:50:41.084
It gave me so much comfort.

00:50:44.504 --> 00:50:48.216
I ask you to lead the way again.

00:50:49.342 --> 00:50:50.385
Brother.

00:50:52.179 --> 00:50:56.475
Did we not swear it to each other
on the day we dethroned the King?

00:50:56.600 --> 00:51:01.271
That we would never watch this country
fall to misery in the hands of a tyrant.

00:51:01.354 --> 00:51:05.901
To make a rich and powerful country
that will last a thousand years.

00:51:06.359 --> 00:51:08.904
-That's enough, Councilor.
-When the throne strengthens,

00:51:09.488 --> 00:51:11.948
the Queen's family
will be the first to be eliminated.

00:51:13.658 --> 00:51:16.661
King Taejong sought help
from his brothers-in-law.

00:51:16.787 --> 00:51:18.205
But in order to grow his power,

00:51:19.247 --> 00:51:21.208
he eliminated them first.

00:51:26.546 --> 00:51:30.425
If you also want to avoid
being used by His Majesty…

00:51:33.970 --> 00:51:36.098
you need me.

00:51:45.107 --> 00:51:45.941
Councilor Park.

00:51:49.152 --> 00:51:50.821
My daughter is a Lady.

00:51:53.156 --> 00:51:55.033
She is a royal concubine.

00:52:50.297 --> 00:52:53.341
I'm afraid your wait will be long.

00:52:53.466 --> 00:52:56.178
Lady Cho usually takes a bath
at this hour.

00:52:57.470 --> 00:52:59.723
It's my fault for coming unannounced.

00:53:00.223 --> 00:53:01.600
Don't worry about it.

00:53:16.031 --> 00:53:17.949
I don't see Court Lady Kim.

00:53:18.033 --> 00:53:20.744
She's recovering from the flogging.

00:53:23.246 --> 00:53:27.209
I'm fine, though.
I've gotten used to getting beaten.

00:53:37.969 --> 00:53:41.514
Lady Cho won't be back for long.
She asks you to return to your residence.

00:54:11.795 --> 00:54:14.381
Our Miss is the only person

00:54:15.006 --> 00:54:17.259
who cares for me.

00:54:26.184 --> 00:54:27.185
Councilor Park.

00:54:27.978 --> 00:54:29.020
Councilor.

00:54:29.437 --> 00:54:32.691
His Majesty retracted
his punishment to exile Prince Cheongsan.

00:54:32.732 --> 00:54:34.442
He will be on probation instead.

00:54:35.735 --> 00:54:38.571
The law forbids royal family members
to interject in state affairs.

00:54:39.322 --> 00:54:43.576
This gives the scholars
good reason to protest.

00:54:43.618 --> 00:54:46.579
Do you plan to mobilize Sungkyunkwan
against the King?

00:54:47.163 --> 00:54:48.915
Left Minister.

00:54:48.999 --> 00:54:51.418
You said your son
is the jangeui at Sungkyunkwan?

00:54:51.501 --> 00:54:53.128
JANGEUI: HEAD SCHOLAR OF SUNGKYUNKWAN

00:55:18.194 --> 00:55:19.362
Who sent this letter?

00:55:19.446 --> 00:55:21.072
It is from Bamboo Grove Village.

00:55:25.035 --> 00:55:27.537
That's enough. You may all leave.

00:55:37.505 --> 00:55:39.466
A crafter testified

00:55:39.924 --> 00:55:42.344
that the man who visited Lady Jeong,
the daughter of Master Lim

00:55:42.385 --> 00:55:43.970
was a palace eunuch.

00:56:03.782 --> 00:56:06.993
Exiling a royal family member
who committed adultery

00:56:07.535 --> 00:56:09.412
is the rightful punishment he deserves.

00:56:10.372 --> 00:56:12.582
It is unacceptable
that royal members banded together

00:56:12.957 --> 00:56:16.127
and intimidated Your Majesty
into lessening the punishment.

00:56:16.711 --> 00:56:18.922
The royal family
involving themselves in state affairs

00:56:18.963 --> 00:56:21.216
when there is no heir apparent

00:56:21.257 --> 00:56:23.510
can only be seen as incredible arrogance.

00:56:23.593 --> 00:56:28.098
May your Majesty
send the Prince back into exile.

00:56:28.681 --> 00:56:31.434
And to rid of the root of the problem,

00:56:31.851 --> 00:56:34.687
please grant your royal permission
to select the Queen.

00:56:35.271 --> 00:56:36.856
-Please grant your royal permission
-Please grant your royal permission

00:56:36.940 --> 00:56:40.026
-to select the Queen.
-to select the Queen.

00:56:43.405 --> 00:56:45.156
-Please grant your royal permission
-Please grant your royal permission

00:56:45.240 --> 00:56:48.034
-to select the Queen.
-to select the Queen.

00:56:49.619 --> 00:56:50.829
Your Majesty.

00:56:50.870 --> 00:56:53.581
The Minister of War
requests permission to see you.

00:56:56.960 --> 00:56:59.963
I hear the scholars of Sungkyunkwan
have also joined this power struggle.

00:57:00.588 --> 00:57:01.548
Yes, Lady Park.

00:57:02.715 --> 00:57:06.719
It seems His Majesty has no choice now.

00:57:07.554 --> 00:57:08.471
It seems so.

00:57:12.559 --> 00:57:15.979
Tell Councilor Park I wish to see him.

00:57:18.273 --> 00:57:19.858
I am your servant.

00:57:20.859 --> 00:57:23.153
If you wish to fill the court
with members of the Sarim,

00:57:23.194 --> 00:57:24.279
I will do as you command.

00:57:24.320 --> 00:57:25.989
If you wish to lessen Minister Ou's power,

00:57:26.656 --> 00:57:28.158
I will see to it myself.

00:57:28.741 --> 00:57:31.286
However,
due to the fickle nature of humans,

00:57:31.744 --> 00:57:34.998
they receive happily but oppose greatly
when things are taken away.

00:57:35.874 --> 00:57:38.376
Your Majesty. Reveal your intentions

00:57:39.085 --> 00:57:40.879
so that I may silence their opposition

00:57:42.088 --> 00:57:43.756
and show my loyalty to you more than ever.

00:57:45.884 --> 00:57:47.886
What would you like me to do?

00:57:48.470 --> 00:57:52.223
You have made a promise to me.

00:57:55.602 --> 00:57:57.812
Be the grandfather of my eldest son.

00:57:58.897 --> 00:58:03.485
It is my wish to father a child
with your daughter.

00:58:14.787 --> 00:58:18.374
I plan to save my people in my own way.

00:58:20.418 --> 00:58:22.253
This will be the only way

00:58:22.795 --> 00:58:25.340
to return everything to normal

00:58:26.633 --> 00:58:29.928
without the need
to sacrifice innocent lives.

00:58:30.637 --> 00:58:31.804
Your Majesty.

00:58:31.930 --> 00:58:35.934
Please grant your royal permission
to select the Queen.

00:58:36.518 --> 00:58:38.436
-Please grant your royal permission
-Please grant your royal permission

00:58:38.520 --> 00:58:41.231
-to select the Queen.
-to select the Queen.

00:58:43.816 --> 00:58:46.110
Will His Majesty yield?

00:58:46.569 --> 00:58:51.533
Yes, he can't push this matter any longer.

00:58:52.575 --> 00:58:55.828
Everything you wish comes to fruition.

00:59:01.876 --> 00:59:03.378
Does it not make you happy?

00:59:05.838 --> 00:59:06.673
Councilor.

00:59:09.968 --> 00:59:12.971
Do you remember Scholar Yoo Haksoo?

00:59:15.473 --> 00:59:17.684
Back when His Majesty
was the Crown Prince,

00:59:17.725 --> 00:59:20.603
Scholar Yoo's daughter
was selected as the Crown Princess.

00:59:23.147 --> 00:59:25.900
I do not dare to doubt the King
for even a second.

00:59:26.568 --> 00:59:29.988
But Councilor Park's cunning ways
and the power of his men

00:59:30.738 --> 00:59:33.908
have put you in a position
to select Lady Park as the Queen.

00:59:33.992 --> 00:59:35.285
I am very much aware of this.

00:59:35.868 --> 00:59:37.912
I ask that you hurry…

00:59:39.872 --> 00:59:42.292
and consummate with Lady Cho
before this happens.

00:59:44.627 --> 00:59:45.878
Your Majesty.

00:59:46.504 --> 00:59:48.006
Please set a consummate date.

00:59:55.930 --> 00:59:59.892
The daughter of a man revered by the Sarim
was selected as the Crown Princess.

01:00:00.018 --> 01:00:02.520
It was only natural
for the officials to be uncomfortable.

01:00:03.146 --> 01:00:06.899
That's when Queen Inyoung's
horrible assassination happened.

01:00:07.775 --> 01:00:11.029
Scholar Yoo Haksoo was held accountable
and was executed.

01:00:11.821 --> 01:00:14.449
A mass expulsion of members
of the Sarim followed.

01:00:15.908 --> 01:00:17.744
However, rumor still spreads

01:00:17.827 --> 01:00:20.830
among the people
that you are the real culprit.

01:00:22.624 --> 01:00:24.959
The whole world knows about this.

01:00:27.045 --> 01:00:28.921
What is your reason for bringing this up?

01:00:36.846 --> 01:00:39.182
There is something
the world doesn't know about.

01:00:41.184 --> 01:00:45.647
It's believed that the future
Crown Princess burned to death.

01:00:48.650 --> 01:00:50.109
That is not the truth.

01:00:53.529 --> 01:00:54.781
His daughter…

01:00:56.783 --> 01:00:58.076
is alive.

01:00:59.827 --> 01:01:00.953
She survived…

01:01:03.373 --> 01:01:05.291
and even entered the palace.

01:01:10.713 --> 01:01:12.256
How do you know that,

01:01:13.549 --> 01:01:15.093
Lady Park?

01:01:19.305 --> 01:01:20.306
I…

01:01:23.267 --> 01:01:26.854
am the daughter of Yoo Haksoo.
The late deposed Crown Princess.

01:01:30.900 --> 01:01:32.110
I am Lady Yoo.

01:01:44.831 --> 01:01:46.833
-Please grant your royal permission
-Please grant your royal permission

01:01:46.916 --> 01:01:49.419

Your Majesty!

01:02:05.727 --> 01:02:10.732
Please grant your royal permission
to select the Queen.

01:02:10.898 --> 01:02:12.650
-Please grant your royal permission...
-Please grant your royal permission...

01:02:12.734 --> 01:02:15.194
-to select the Queen.
-to select the Queen.

01:02:45.308 --> 01:02:47.602
Do not waste your time, Councilor.

01:02:47.643 --> 01:02:50.313
You will be very busy from now on.

01:02:50.354 --> 01:02:51.606
Do you remember

01:02:51.689 --> 01:02:53.900
Yoo Haksoo's daughter
who was selected as Crown Princess?

01:02:53.983 --> 01:02:55.610
Why did you call for me?

01:02:55.693 --> 01:02:57.779
We are selecting the head lady
of the Internal Court.

01:02:57.820 --> 01:02:59.238
In the absence of the Queen Dowager,

01:02:59.322 --> 01:03:01.616
I am to make a unilateral decision?

01:03:02.241 --> 01:03:04.494
So you coveted the power
of the future Crown Prince too?

01:03:04.535 --> 01:03:06.204
Your greed for that is excessive.

01:03:06.788 --> 01:03:08.539
That is my duty!

01:03:08.623 --> 01:03:11.083
Only I am capable of this.

01:03:11.209 --> 01:03:12.794
Your Majesty!

01:03:12.835 --> 01:03:16.088
Why did you save
the daughter of a traitor?
