WEBVTT

00:00:47.260 --> 00:00:50.180
THE PEOPLE, GROUPS, PLACES, AND INCIDENTS
IN THIS DRAMA ARE PURELY FICTIONAL

00:01:53.743 --> 00:01:55.203
You are already as good as dead.

00:01:55.286 --> 00:01:57.497
What if someone recognizes you?
You should not have come!

00:01:57.539 --> 00:01:59.707
I should at least
retrieve my parents' bodies.

00:02:01.501 --> 00:02:04.963
How can they rest if they are not buried?

00:02:05.046 --> 00:02:08.049
The crows have probably
left them unrecognizable.

00:02:08.633 --> 00:02:11.511
If you have come to the capital
foolishly blinded by revenge,

00:02:11.719 --> 00:02:12.971
head back this instant.

00:02:18.101 --> 00:02:19.394
Then who…

00:02:20.895 --> 00:02:22.480
do I get back at for this?

00:02:26.609 --> 00:02:28.319
The meritorious subjects

00:02:28.820 --> 00:02:31.239
who destroyed my family
to annihilate the Sarim?

00:02:31.364 --> 00:02:32.407
Or should it be…

00:02:34.909 --> 00:02:36.870
His Majesty…

00:02:38.830 --> 00:02:41.875
who framed my father
in order to protect the Crown Prince?

00:02:49.549 --> 00:02:51.050
Who…

00:02:54.929 --> 00:02:57.307
should be the target of my revenge?

00:03:55.949 --> 00:03:57.825
Even so, I will live.

00:03:58.868 --> 00:04:03.539
I'll live and torture the ones
who slaughtered those dear to me.

00:04:05.959 --> 00:04:07.794
So please, stay alive.

00:04:08.753 --> 00:04:11.756
Please live and endure.

00:04:13.383 --> 00:04:16.678
I will choose to live, my lord.

00:04:18.513 --> 00:04:20.556
You have saved me from death

00:04:21.641 --> 00:04:24.269
and I will use that second chance to live

00:04:25.353 --> 00:04:26.604
for those who need me.

00:04:37.991 --> 00:04:40.493
BLOODY HEART
EPISODE 2

00:04:51.129 --> 00:04:54.090
I figured there was a chance
of you not coming today.

00:04:54.716 --> 00:04:57.343
Then you should have left
which is what I always say.

00:04:58.219 --> 00:05:00.763
Well, you always make it.

00:05:18.489 --> 00:05:19.615
You are truly stunning.

00:05:30.209 --> 00:05:33.129
Are you not the one
who lectured me about it being worth

00:05:33.546 --> 00:05:35.089
several meals for crafters.

00:05:35.590 --> 00:05:36.591
Then please take it back.

00:05:36.716 --> 00:05:39.218
Nonsense. It suits you.

00:05:43.014 --> 00:05:45.683
Pungmulnori is being enjoyed
at the marketplace.

00:05:45.767 --> 00:05:48.394
We will miss it if we do not hurry.

00:05:49.228 --> 00:05:50.688
You will not believe how fun it is--

00:05:53.983 --> 00:05:55.526
My lady, what is it?

00:05:55.610 --> 00:05:57.070
It is an item I value.

00:05:58.154 --> 00:05:59.364
Allow me, then.

00:05:59.697 --> 00:06:01.574
No, my lord. How about this?

00:06:01.657 --> 00:06:03.618
Can you hold my hand instead?

00:06:12.919 --> 00:06:15.213
Can you extend your arm a little more?

00:06:15.296 --> 00:06:16.214
Do you have it?

00:06:17.548 --> 00:06:18.800
No, not yet.

00:06:19.509 --> 00:06:21.386
Why are you so adamant about retrieving--

00:06:21.469 --> 00:06:24.055
Less talking, more extending, please.

00:06:24.138 --> 00:06:25.098
All right.

00:06:31.229 --> 00:06:32.230
Got it.

00:06:36.317 --> 00:06:37.485
What a relief.

00:06:38.528 --> 00:06:39.987
Is that so precious?

00:06:46.077 --> 00:06:47.328
My lord,

00:06:49.539 --> 00:06:51.541
I believe I have not yet
given you a fan before.

00:07:09.434 --> 00:07:11.519
Do you not like it?

00:07:12.395 --> 00:07:13.896
I am not as crafty yet.

00:07:15.898 --> 00:07:17.400
It is lovely.

00:07:23.239 --> 00:07:25.324
I also included a poem.

00:07:35.710 --> 00:07:38.171
"The love child between bamboo and paper.

00:07:45.887 --> 00:07:47.847
It is the clear wind."

00:07:52.727 --> 00:07:55.646
It is one of the old poems
that stood out to me.

00:08:00.359 --> 00:08:01.486
Will you…

00:08:03.488 --> 00:08:04.989
accept this?

00:08:23.633 --> 00:08:24.634
My lady,

00:08:25.134 --> 00:08:26.677
we should call it a night.

00:08:27.345 --> 00:08:29.514
Sorry? But…

00:08:40.358 --> 00:08:41.359
Show yourself.

00:08:43.069 --> 00:08:44.195
This instant.

00:08:48.699 --> 00:08:49.909
Were you after me…

00:08:50.493 --> 00:08:52.036
or the lady?

00:08:55.915 --> 00:08:58.084
My lord, what is this about?

00:09:01.587 --> 00:09:03.381
Ttonggeum, Hyang.

00:09:06.008 --> 00:09:07.760
-Ttonggeum, Hyang?
-Miss!

00:09:07.885 --> 00:09:10.596
-What are you two doing here?
-You stay put

00:09:10.680 --> 00:09:13.599
while I ask this nobleman a few questions.

00:09:13.724 --> 00:09:14.725
-What?
-Wait.

00:09:17.603 --> 00:09:21.065
-His skin is not the fairest.
-And he is not so tall.

00:09:21.148 --> 00:09:22.608
He does not leave a good impression.

00:09:22.650 --> 00:09:24.235
I bet he has a nasty personality.

00:09:24.318 --> 00:09:27.697
What are your intentions with Miss?

00:09:27.780 --> 00:09:29.699
Just how much do you fancy her?

00:09:29.740 --> 00:09:32.994
Does your heart pound
at the thought of her?

00:09:33.077 --> 00:09:34.829
If you bring her any suffering--

00:09:34.870 --> 00:09:38.374
They were curious as to who I was meeting.

00:09:38.874 --> 00:09:40.167
That is enough.

00:09:43.004 --> 00:09:44.630
An answer would still be nice--

00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:47.967
Maybe we took it too far.

00:09:48.009 --> 00:09:49.677
He could cut glass with his glare.

00:09:50.553 --> 00:09:53.389
-I do not think he is the one for you.
-Of course he is.

00:09:55.766 --> 00:09:56.809
My lord.

00:09:58.894 --> 00:10:02.523
They only acted out of concern for me,
so I hope you understand.

00:10:05.776 --> 00:10:07.403
They show concern in a rude way.

00:10:08.070 --> 00:10:09.488
They're eavesdropping again.

00:10:10.489 --> 00:10:12.366
I understand that you saved them,

00:10:12.450 --> 00:10:14.160
but you do not want to be caught…

00:10:15.953 --> 00:10:17.330
in danger again.

00:10:17.913 --> 00:10:20.166
I owe my life to you, my lord.

00:10:20.916 --> 00:10:23.377
It is why I will live a life
that has you proud of me.

00:10:31.969 --> 00:10:34.764
I will see you again on the next 15th.

00:10:53.199 --> 00:10:54.909
Hyang, let's have honey rice cakes.

00:10:55.493 --> 00:10:57.328
-Right.
-Have Ttonggeum's too.

00:10:57.370 --> 00:10:58.579
Yes, Miss.

00:10:59.538 --> 00:11:02.750
But we should find out where he lives!

00:11:03.334 --> 00:11:06.253
"My lord, I fancy you.

00:11:08.047 --> 00:11:09.465
Please marry me."

00:11:11.634 --> 00:11:13.719
Only that way will he understand.

00:11:13.844 --> 00:11:17.390
No man in this world
would see a fan as a sign of affection.

00:11:17.890 --> 00:11:19.058
She is done for.

00:11:19.100 --> 00:11:21.894
I bet she will die a *.

00:11:21.977 --> 00:11:22.978
No way.

00:11:26.649 --> 00:11:27.775
But Miss,

00:11:28.359 --> 00:11:31.987
the scholar seemed brusque and scary.

00:11:32.029 --> 00:11:33.989
Do you really like a man like him?

00:11:34.490 --> 00:11:37.326
You said he wouldn't tell you
where he lives and what he does.

00:11:38.828 --> 00:11:40.329
He must know how you feel about him

00:11:40.371 --> 00:11:43.165
which makes me angry
that he has not mentioned marriage.

00:11:44.417 --> 00:11:46.127
He lives an unstable life being hunted.

00:11:47.169 --> 00:11:49.547
I doubt marriage is on his mind right now.

00:11:49.588 --> 00:11:52.049
Exactly. Why is he being hunted?

00:11:52.174 --> 00:11:54.343
-What crime did he commit?
-Exactly.

00:11:55.344 --> 00:11:56.971
-Hyang.
-Yes, Miss?

00:11:57.096 --> 00:11:59.098
Did you look into the guest
at Left State Councilor's home?

00:11:59.640 --> 00:12:03.394
No one is allowed in the vicinity.
It must be someone important.

00:12:04.645 --> 00:12:06.063
Let me know what you find out.

00:12:06.981 --> 00:12:08.858
Ttonggeum, how are things
at the Minister of War's?

00:12:08.899 --> 00:12:11.110
Every year, the family buys
three to four bamboo boxes.

00:12:11.193 --> 00:12:12.528
May I pay a visit sometime?

00:12:12.570 --> 00:12:14.405
I have already put in a good word.

00:12:15.239 --> 00:12:18.033
Lady Yeonhee has been causing trouble,

00:12:18.284 --> 00:12:20.327
so they may not be in a state
to buy more boxes.

00:12:21.454 --> 00:12:22.580
What kind of trouble?

00:12:32.089 --> 00:12:33.257
Eunuch Heo,

00:12:33.299 --> 00:12:36.510
I have been appointed
to serve at the King's Palace.

00:12:36.635 --> 00:12:40.097
Your great service at that Queen's Palace

00:12:40.639 --> 00:12:42.767
should be rewarded.

00:12:42.850 --> 00:12:44.769
I eagerly await your guidance.

00:12:52.276 --> 00:12:55.613
Does His Majesty
still sleep in the library?

00:12:55.696 --> 00:12:58.741
Yes, Councilor Park.
He suffers from severe insomnia.

00:12:58.866 --> 00:13:01.994
The royal physician suggested
that he sleeps

00:13:02.077 --> 00:13:04.205
wherever he feels like he can rest.

00:13:04.789 --> 00:13:07.625
Be aware of his thoughts
and serve him well.

00:13:08.918 --> 00:13:14.256
Never should there be a moment
where you lose track of him.

00:13:31.357 --> 00:13:33.108
Before the marriage ban,

00:13:34.026 --> 00:13:37.446
the Queen Dowager and Left State Councilor
will decide on the Queen.

00:13:38.697 --> 00:13:40.074
Which family…

00:13:41.200 --> 00:13:43.035
will they let in the Queen's Palace?

00:13:55.381 --> 00:13:57.508
Left State Councilor
would like an audience.

00:14:07.518 --> 00:14:08.644
Please sit up.

00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:14.650
You are scaring me.

00:14:16.235 --> 00:14:18.654
What grave matter are you here to address?

00:14:26.537 --> 00:14:31.000
I request that you entrust me
on the matter at hand.

00:14:33.127 --> 00:14:36.547
These are words of great loyalty.

00:14:38.841 --> 00:14:40.384
You disgust me.

00:14:41.719 --> 00:14:42.720
Your Highness.

00:14:46.098 --> 00:14:47.600
I only need to know one thing.

00:14:49.560 --> 00:14:50.769
What…

00:14:51.478 --> 00:14:53.439
shall I do for you?

00:15:00.404 --> 00:15:02.031
Bring Yeonhee to me!

00:15:02.573 --> 00:15:04.408
Before the marriage ban is in place,

00:15:04.450 --> 00:15:05.993
you must hurry and wed.

00:15:06.744 --> 00:15:08.579
Why are you wasting your time?

00:15:09.246 --> 00:15:11.790
-I will not marry.
-Why not?

00:15:16.503 --> 00:15:18.714
You will be marrying
the Left State Councilor's nephew.

00:15:18.797 --> 00:15:20.424
He will soon be given a position in court.

00:15:21.258 --> 00:15:22.760
Once marriage is banned,

00:15:23.636 --> 00:15:26.138
will I be included
in the selection for the Queen?

00:15:27.890 --> 00:15:31.185
Do not worry
for I will see to it that you are not.

00:15:32.144 --> 00:15:33.228
Yeonhee.

00:15:33.854 --> 00:15:35.189
I understand your troubles,

00:15:35.689 --> 00:15:37.900
but you cannot live forever under my care.

00:15:37.983 --> 00:15:41.028
And I would never marry you off to
a family that will give you a hard time.

00:15:41.570 --> 00:15:44.907
I do not want this, so do not force me!

00:15:46.075 --> 00:15:47.743
Why that…

00:15:48.035 --> 00:15:50.746
You as her nanny
should have done a better job.

00:15:50.829 --> 00:15:52.289
How did she grow up so arrogant?

00:15:52.331 --> 00:15:55.960
I blame you for coddling her
after her mother passed away.

00:15:58.545 --> 00:16:00.089
-Do not just stand there.
-Sorry?

00:16:00.214 --> 00:16:02.675
Go and comfort her this instant.

00:16:03.133 --> 00:16:04.510
You of all people know

00:16:04.927 --> 00:16:07.179
that she will cry for days
and fall ill afterward.

00:16:07.304 --> 00:16:08.389
Yes, my lord.

00:16:08.806 --> 00:16:11.058
This will probably bring on
another hunger strike,

00:16:11.308 --> 00:16:13.060
so have her eat some tarak-juk at least.

00:16:14.019 --> 00:16:15.145
Do you hear me?

00:16:29.410 --> 00:16:32.788
So the Minister of War's daughter
is still holding out on marriage?

00:16:32.830 --> 00:16:36.417
Yes. She keeps telling her father
that she would hang herself

00:16:36.500 --> 00:16:37.793
rather than marry someone.

00:16:38.210 --> 00:16:40.879
It must be true
that she is the apple of his eye.

00:16:41.380 --> 00:16:43.507
Why is she against marriage so much?

00:16:52.850 --> 00:16:55.019
You have delicate hands
for someone of low birth

00:16:55.978 --> 00:16:57.354
and are quite crafty.

00:16:57.438 --> 00:16:58.689
Thank you, my lady.

00:16:59.440 --> 00:17:01.066
The crafter is here with me,

00:17:01.150 --> 00:17:03.569
so it can be altered any way you please.

00:17:05.529 --> 00:17:06.613
Would you perhaps

00:17:07.239 --> 00:17:10.117
like a viewing of the wedding boxes?

00:17:11.243 --> 00:17:12.327
Wedding boxes?

00:17:12.369 --> 00:17:16.540
Yes, silk is wrapped around the corners
making them presentable and eye-catching.

00:17:19.334 --> 00:17:20.419
A lot of good that will do.

00:17:24.048 --> 00:17:25.299
You need not bring them.

00:17:30.471 --> 00:17:33.849
She must be refusing to marry
because she harbors feelings for another.

00:17:33.974 --> 00:17:35.601
-Really?
-Yeah.

00:17:36.518 --> 00:17:38.479
It's probably someone
she cannot marry easily.

00:17:39.396 --> 00:17:40.606
Can you look into it?

00:17:40.689 --> 00:17:43.567
Whatever you need, I will do.

00:17:43.609 --> 00:17:46.028
Tread lightly though.
You do not want to be scolded.

00:17:46.278 --> 00:17:49.490
Those who would scold me
hardly take interest in us slaves anyway.

00:17:49.573 --> 00:17:52.034
I can get around like nobody's business.

00:17:55.579 --> 00:17:56.580
Look who it is.

00:17:56.663 --> 00:17:59.374
I see you came all the way to Hanyang

00:17:59.583 --> 00:18:01.043
to do business like a commoner.

00:18:01.126 --> 00:18:04.213
We are here to sell our goods,
but you must be here to purchase one.

00:18:04.296 --> 00:18:06.298
Why you…

00:18:09.843 --> 00:18:13.055
Fancy that.
I see that you are here as well.

00:18:13.138 --> 00:18:15.307
I hope you are the last of you lot.

00:18:15.349 --> 00:18:17.726
The Minister of War
can shoot even a flying bird.

00:18:18.310 --> 00:18:20.479
Causing a ruckus
will benefit neither of us.

00:18:23.899 --> 00:18:24.900
Shall we?

00:18:29.905 --> 00:18:31.615
Damn that broad.

00:18:38.664 --> 00:18:39.790
Hold on a second.

00:18:43.335 --> 00:18:47.297
Every time she visits Hanyang,
she is said to make a fortune.

00:18:49.091 --> 00:18:52.803
No one in Joseon
makes boxes quite like she does.

00:18:53.679 --> 00:18:58.058
You should also marry soon
and fill these up with all kinds of good.

00:18:59.184 --> 00:19:02.187
Goodness. Look how pretty this is.

00:19:20.038 --> 00:19:21.290
Identify yourself!

00:19:25.085 --> 00:19:26.420
My goodness!

00:19:28.505 --> 00:19:29.840
Stay inside, my lady.

00:19:29.965 --> 00:19:31.758
You must not leave the litter.

00:19:40.976 --> 00:19:41.977
Nanny?

00:19:43.729 --> 00:19:46.356
Have the rogues all been dealt with?

00:19:49.735 --> 00:19:50.861
Nanny?

00:19:58.744 --> 00:20:00.245
They have all fled,

00:20:01.413 --> 00:20:02.706
so you may open the door.

00:20:46.500 --> 00:20:48.126
Minister of War,

00:20:49.503 --> 00:20:50.754
Cho Wonpyo.

00:21:02.349 --> 00:21:05.769
Your Majesty, the moon shines brightly
as it is the 15th.

00:21:06.478 --> 00:21:08.939
May I suggest a light stroll?

00:21:11.733 --> 00:21:13.277
Is it already the 15th?

00:22:01.199 --> 00:22:03.160
I thought you were off
to a courtesan house today.

00:22:03.744 --> 00:22:04.745
That I was.

00:22:06.038 --> 00:22:07.080
Today is the 15th.

00:22:07.205 --> 00:22:09.958
It is. I will not be gone long.

00:22:10.000 --> 00:22:11.543
There is no need.

00:22:12.836 --> 00:22:15.547
-Sorry?
-I have already sent Ma out

00:22:15.589 --> 00:22:18.008
to say that you will not make it today.

00:22:20.385 --> 00:22:21.428
But Master!

00:22:34.816 --> 00:22:36.943
Why won't you let me meet the scholar?

00:22:37.986 --> 00:22:39.863
You don't know who he is.

00:22:40.447 --> 00:22:42.616
It cannot be said
that you know him either.

00:22:42.699 --> 00:22:44.493
He is on the run
after his family perished.

00:22:45.077 --> 00:22:46.870
I've told you, you'll fall in danger
if you get closer to him.

00:22:48.038 --> 00:22:50.499
And I already said that I do not care.

00:22:52.084 --> 00:22:54.169
Please trust the man I have chosen.

00:22:54.294 --> 00:22:55.879
Whoever he may be,

00:22:57.089 --> 00:22:58.924
my feelings for him will stay the same.

00:23:01.718 --> 00:23:02.719
Jung!

00:23:11.978 --> 00:23:13.146
We will head out as well.

00:23:13.230 --> 00:23:14.189
But…

00:23:15.023 --> 00:23:17.859
what if he still awaits Lady Jung?

00:23:22.155 --> 00:23:24.533
He is not one to await anyone.

00:23:26.660 --> 00:23:28.370
Waiting will only be
her heartache to bear.

00:24:19.045 --> 00:24:20.839
I thought you had left.

00:24:20.881 --> 00:24:22.466
And I thought you were not coming.

00:24:25.135 --> 00:24:28.805
Then, why did you wait for me?

00:24:30.056 --> 00:24:31.099
Just in case…

00:24:33.560 --> 00:24:35.145
you actually showed up.

00:24:51.244 --> 00:24:54.289
A late-night snack was not requested,
so why cause a ruckus?

00:24:54.331 --> 00:24:56.416
It is bad enough
that His Majesty is a light sleeper.

00:24:56.500 --> 00:24:58.543
My apologies!

00:24:59.127 --> 00:25:00.504
Lower your voice.

00:25:05.509 --> 00:25:08.345
Your Majesty, it is of no concern.

00:25:08.428 --> 00:25:09.930
Please head back to sleep.

00:25:27.030 --> 00:25:30.867
Your Majesty,
did the commotion startle you?

00:25:34.371 --> 00:25:35.539
Your Majesty,

00:25:36.873 --> 00:25:39.251
forgive the intrusion.

00:26:09.614 --> 00:26:12.075
His Majesty ordered not to be disturbed.

00:26:12.659 --> 00:26:14.369
How is it that you were inside?

00:26:14.411 --> 00:26:17.831
I was asked to help him read
before he succumbed to sleep.

00:27:27.359 --> 00:27:28.943
Don't make that face.

00:27:31.279 --> 00:27:34.699
Smile like you were doing before. Smile.

00:28:17.075 --> 00:28:18.702
I guess it is time for you to leave.

00:28:19.744 --> 00:28:20.537
Miss! Miss, is that you?

00:28:28.712 --> 00:28:30.046
I will get going.

00:28:31.047 --> 00:28:34.217
Of course.
Until the 15th next month, then.

00:28:38.805 --> 00:28:40.098
Here you go.

00:28:46.521 --> 00:28:48.064
Miss!

00:28:48.148 --> 00:28:50.775
Wait, you again?

00:28:52.736 --> 00:28:54.738
Why does he flee whenever he sees us?

00:28:54.863 --> 00:28:56.614
Is he really a wanted man?

00:28:56.698 --> 00:28:58.366
Tell me about it. Oh, Miss!

00:28:58.908 --> 00:29:01.661
I finally found out who resides
at the Left State Councilor's annex.

00:29:01.745 --> 00:29:02.829
Who is it?

00:30:11.898 --> 00:30:14.275
-Cheers.
-Are you drinking alone?

00:30:14.317 --> 00:30:16.778
-Goodness.
-Allow me to pour you a cup.

00:30:16.861 --> 00:30:18.238
Goodness me!

00:30:19.697 --> 00:30:21.991
-There you go.
-How nice.

00:30:29.624 --> 00:30:31.042
Bring it here.

00:31:02.407 --> 00:31:04.492
Do you remember this sword?

00:31:10.498 --> 00:31:11.499
My lord.

00:31:13.418 --> 00:31:14.586
You have not left yet.

00:31:17.839 --> 00:31:19.924
Why are you looking into
the Left State Councilor's affairs?

00:31:23.678 --> 00:31:26.264
I received information that intrigued me.

00:31:26.347 --> 00:31:27.682
What kind of information?

00:31:28.808 --> 00:31:31.644
A woman currently resides
in the Left State Councilor's annex.

00:31:33.688 --> 00:31:35.773
She is his niece.

00:31:39.527 --> 00:31:40.778
This sword…

00:31:41.863 --> 00:31:44.115
led us through the gates

00:31:44.782 --> 00:31:46.951
on the day we deposed the King.

00:31:47.744 --> 00:31:50.663
Remember how many men
were sacrificed that day.

00:31:50.747 --> 00:31:52.916
The blood shed by those loyal subjects…

00:31:54.834 --> 00:31:56.294
protected this nation.

00:31:56.878 --> 00:31:59.297
What am I about to suggest

00:32:00.423 --> 00:32:02.175
is not out of greed.

00:32:02.258 --> 00:32:05.428
It is the same as when
I led you that day wielding this sword.

00:32:05.553 --> 00:32:07.597
This is me pleading.

00:32:12.769 --> 00:32:14.187
I'm going

00:32:15.563 --> 00:32:17.982
to select my niece as the Queen.

00:32:18.691 --> 00:32:20.068
The Left State Councilor's…

00:32:22.278 --> 00:32:23.821
-niece?
-Yes.

00:32:23.905 --> 00:32:26.532
Probably to crown her as queen.

00:32:26.616 --> 00:32:30.328
She is kept hidden from most people
while being taught royal etiquette.

00:32:31.037 --> 00:32:33.414
Marriage falls under the jurisdiction
of the Queen Dowager.

00:32:33.498 --> 00:32:35.792
Her Highness colluding
with the Left State Councilor

00:32:35.875 --> 00:32:38.544
can lead to anyone
being selected as queen.

00:32:40.338 --> 00:32:41.422
Why is it…

00:32:42.507 --> 00:32:44.842
that you are looking into this matter?

00:32:45.718 --> 00:32:48.388
Is it to get revenge
on the most powerful man in Joseon?

00:32:54.018 --> 00:32:55.353
If it were possible,

00:32:56.187 --> 00:32:57.689
nothing would stop me.

00:32:58.856 --> 00:33:01.526
Hundreds of scholars
were framed for treason

00:33:01.818 --> 00:33:04.112
and dozens of bloodlines perished.

00:33:04.195 --> 00:33:08.157
Countless innocents died
without knowing why.

00:33:09.617 --> 00:33:12.161
Someone destroyed my family and yours,

00:33:12.745 --> 00:33:15.498
but we have yet to uncover
who orchestrated it.

00:33:16.708 --> 00:33:19.627
We must first find out
who murdered the late Queen Inyoung.

00:33:21.629 --> 00:33:23.297
I will figure it out.

00:33:23.881 --> 00:33:25.967
I will bring him to justice so that…

00:33:27.927 --> 00:33:32.598
my father is no longer known
as the late Queen's murderer.

00:33:36.394 --> 00:33:37.562
For my sake…

00:33:39.063 --> 00:33:40.523
and for yours--

00:33:40.606 --> 00:33:43.985
For my sake? Then, you are to do nothing.

00:33:45.153 --> 00:33:46.696
If you want what is best for me,

00:33:47.697 --> 00:33:49.282
you will forget what happened

00:33:50.408 --> 00:33:52.118
and live a normal life.

00:34:03.671 --> 00:34:05.048
Our blood

00:34:05.882 --> 00:34:08.926
put an end to the tyranny
of the King we deposed.

00:34:08.968 --> 00:34:10.678
But what about the generations to come?

00:34:12.388 --> 00:34:16.184
Who can guarantee that
this nation will not see another tyrant?

00:34:16.267 --> 00:34:19.145
I do not see how this ties in
with the selection of the Queen.

00:34:19.187 --> 00:34:23.316
It is why we must control
the Queen's Palace.

00:34:23.858 --> 00:34:27.904
What we need is a system
that will prevent tyrants from being born.

00:34:27.987 --> 00:34:30.948
That is the time we need!

00:34:47.298 --> 00:34:52.428
For us to mold a wise leader
out of the future Crown Prince.

00:34:56.099 --> 00:34:58.267
That is the time we need.

00:35:06.526 --> 00:35:10.988
The ignorant people of this nation
will see it as your selfish desires.

00:35:11.114 --> 00:35:13.908
How will you handle the reproach
from the royal family and the Sarim?

00:35:14.033 --> 00:35:16.285
It could end up backfiring on us.

00:35:22.208 --> 00:35:25.128
Show respect.
The Queen Dowager has entered.

00:35:29.382 --> 00:35:31.926
Your Highness,
what brings you to a residential area?

00:35:32.468 --> 00:35:35.805
I wish to speak
regarding the King's matrimony.

00:35:43.187 --> 00:35:46.649
Left State Councilor's words are mine,
and my words…

00:35:47.608 --> 00:35:49.777
are the King's.

00:36:02.707 --> 00:36:06.085
I will heed your command.

00:36:06.127 --> 00:36:11.257
-I will heed your command.
-I will heed your command.

00:36:49.337 --> 00:36:50.838
I need to…

00:36:55.718 --> 00:36:57.595
I mean… Come on.

00:37:00.348 --> 00:37:01.224
What gives?

00:37:01.307 --> 00:37:03.768
I hear you do anything for money.

00:37:05.853 --> 00:37:08.731
And I come bearing information
which will give you just that.

00:37:13.736 --> 00:37:15.821
It is exactly as I say it is.

00:37:16.072 --> 00:37:19.742
She always leaves her residence
to meet a man on the 15th.

00:37:20.243 --> 00:37:24.163
And the money she earned from sales
is stacked at her house.

00:37:24.247 --> 00:37:28.167
All we need to do is abduct her
and squeeze her for the money!

00:37:28.292 --> 00:37:32.004
Now, please dig in. Have your fill!

00:37:32.088 --> 00:37:33.965
What a good day this is.

00:37:34.048 --> 00:37:36.592
Those riffraffs seem
to be plotting something.

00:37:36.676 --> 00:37:39.178
-Have them reported.
-Yes, my lord.

00:38:20.177 --> 00:38:21.887
What is it that I did wrong?

00:38:22.305 --> 00:38:24.515
It is the Left State Councilor
who covets the Queen's Palace.

00:38:24.807 --> 00:38:27.476
The Queen Dowager siding with him

00:38:27.893 --> 00:38:30.396
does not mean
you should drop your objections.

00:38:30.688 --> 00:38:31.772
Look here.

00:38:32.315 --> 00:38:35.985
Have you forgotten that a royal marriage
falls under the jurisdiction of the elder?

00:38:36.068 --> 00:38:38.404
A royal marriage
shapes the future of Joseon.

00:38:38.487 --> 00:38:40.656
She cannot be allowed
to make a unilateral decision.

00:38:41.449 --> 00:38:44.452
It is for this reason that she is
the subject of a scandalous rumor!

00:38:44.535 --> 00:38:45.745
How dare you!

00:38:50.791 --> 00:38:55.338
For speaking disgracefully
of the great Queen Dowager,

00:38:55.921 --> 00:38:59.091
you will be sentenced
to forfeit all your dirty assets.

00:39:00.551 --> 00:39:01.677
Prattle once more

00:39:02.094 --> 00:39:06.307
and your family will pay the price
with their lives.

00:39:06.974 --> 00:39:08.434
Prattle once again

00:39:09.018 --> 00:39:13.397
and I will rip off your limbs,

00:39:14.648 --> 00:39:18.652
each and every one,
while you watch in pain.

00:39:20.363 --> 00:39:22.698
Every asset he has harbored

00:39:22.823 --> 00:39:24.533
will be returned to the nation.

00:39:25.451 --> 00:39:26.827
I will directly oversee

00:39:27.828 --> 00:39:28.954
the operation.

00:39:35.878 --> 00:39:37.088
How odd.

00:39:37.505 --> 00:39:39.882
It is not like Councilor Park
to disobey Confucian ethics.

00:39:41.926 --> 00:39:43.386
What did the internal prince do?

00:39:44.011 --> 00:39:45.137
Well…

00:39:46.597 --> 00:39:47.556
Tell me.

00:39:47.598 --> 00:39:51.394
He dared to speak ill of you,
Your Highness.

00:40:00.861 --> 00:40:03.614
The hideous last efforts of a man
who has met his downfall.

00:40:04.657 --> 00:40:05.658
Court Lady Han,

00:40:05.783 --> 00:40:08.953
have all the daughters of those in office
gather at the palace tomorrow.

00:40:09.537 --> 00:40:10.955
Yes, Your Highness.

00:40:20.798 --> 00:40:22.383
Were you injured?

00:40:22.967 --> 00:40:24.927
If you tell me who you are,

00:40:26.178 --> 00:40:29.056
my father will reward you greatly.

00:40:30.057 --> 00:40:32.935
That will not be necessary
since I was already rewarded.

00:40:37.648 --> 00:40:40.234
I came by to enjoy
cherry blossoms in full bloom,

00:40:41.527 --> 00:40:43.487
but the real flower was here all along.

00:40:45.865 --> 00:40:47.241
How insolent.

00:40:47.324 --> 00:40:49.368
Do you have any idea
who you are talking to?

00:40:49.493 --> 00:40:51.745
Do you know who I am to be so audacious?

00:40:53.539 --> 00:40:56.459
Who… exactly may you be?

00:41:01.964 --> 00:41:03.174
Those beads!

00:41:04.175 --> 00:41:06.427
They were a gift to His Majesty
by my father.

00:41:07.052 --> 00:41:09.972
How is it that you have those?

00:41:10.055 --> 00:41:11.599
The Minister of War presented them

00:41:11.724 --> 00:41:14.268
proudly speaking of
how his daughter picked them out.

00:41:14.351 --> 00:41:15.478
That must make you…

00:41:16.604 --> 00:41:18.147
the Minister of War's daughter.

00:41:19.273 --> 00:41:21.817
Your… Majesty?

00:41:22.776 --> 00:41:24.653
I wish to keep my outing secret,

00:41:25.029 --> 00:41:28.449
so please let our encounter
stay between us.

00:41:29.742 --> 00:41:31.076
Will you promise me that?

00:41:45.424 --> 00:41:47.968
Today's gathering
concerns the royal marriage.

00:41:48.552 --> 00:41:50.971
Are we here for
the Queen Dowager to inspect?

00:41:54.725 --> 00:41:56.727
The Queen Dowager shall enter.

00:42:12.868 --> 00:42:15.204
I see we have an empty seat.

00:42:15.454 --> 00:42:17.998
The Left State Councilor's niece
has a cold

00:42:18.082 --> 00:42:21.502
and was deeply ashamed
of not being present today.

00:42:22.086 --> 00:42:24.004
Have the royal physician
attend to her illness.

00:42:24.588 --> 00:42:27.258
Then, allow me to clear her seat.

00:42:27.841 --> 00:42:28.759
Leave it.

00:42:31.053 --> 00:42:33.097
It is the one reserved
for who will rise in power.

00:42:34.932 --> 00:42:37.226
Though her seat is empty,
show respect to the lady.

00:42:38.936 --> 00:42:40.896
She is who you will serve.

00:42:43.148 --> 00:42:45.025
-Yes, Your Highness.
-Yes, Your Highness.

00:42:54.076 --> 00:42:56.078
Did something upset you at the palace?

00:42:56.161 --> 00:42:58.998
The Left State Councilor.
How many nieces does he have?

00:42:59.123 --> 00:43:02.167
I bet she is some distant relative
from the countryside. As if that matters.

00:43:02.501 --> 00:43:06.005
Meanwhile, my family has seen
two ministers from my mother's side!

00:43:08.799 --> 00:43:12.636
When Father returns from work,
tell him that I will marry.

00:43:12.678 --> 00:43:13.804
Lady Yeonhee?

00:43:14.388 --> 00:43:16.473
I will marry someone…

00:43:17.516 --> 00:43:19.727
before the marriage ban is issued.

00:43:27.776 --> 00:43:29.862
The order stated all of his assets…

00:43:31.947 --> 00:43:34.533
including the pavilion bestowed upon him

00:43:34.867 --> 00:43:36.785
by His Majesty.

00:43:36.827 --> 00:43:39.204
The officers checked many times,

00:43:40.247 --> 00:43:43.167
but such a pavilion does not exist.

00:43:43.208 --> 00:43:44.501
It does not exist?

00:43:46.378 --> 00:43:48.505
But I specifically remember
Eunuch Jung reporting

00:43:48.547 --> 00:43:51.842
that two houses will be demolished
for the pavilion to be built.

00:43:52.217 --> 00:43:57.056
Maybe Eunuch Jung
was not speaking the truth.

00:43:59.975 --> 00:44:02.102
All eunuchs will exit their quarters!

00:44:02.186 --> 00:44:03.479
Room inspections!

00:44:07.608 --> 00:44:08.859
Get searching!

00:44:08.984 --> 00:44:10.027
-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir.

00:44:36.637 --> 00:44:38.389
There was nothing out of the ordinary.

00:44:40.516 --> 00:44:41.558
All right.

00:45:09.545 --> 00:45:13.382
CLASSIC OF POETRY

00:45:23.016 --> 00:45:24.184
Why do you find

00:45:25.352 --> 00:45:27.104
this old book to be suspicious?

00:45:27.396 --> 00:45:29.773
It is the old book

00:45:29.857 --> 00:45:36.238
that His Majesty also kept close to him
in his library.

00:45:39.491 --> 00:45:41.034
I wanted to console the internal prince

00:45:41.118 --> 00:45:43.537
by demolishing a deserted house
and building a pavilion.

00:45:44.747 --> 00:45:45.956
How big is it?

00:45:46.623 --> 00:45:48.959
A house of 21 kan will be used
to build it with 4 dan and 4 jum,

00:45:49.084 --> 00:45:52.921
and a house of 22 kan will become
3 dan and 9 jum.

00:45:53.005 --> 00:45:54.214
Come to think of it,

00:45:55.257 --> 00:45:56.592
I did find it odd

00:45:56.675 --> 00:46:00.137
that he reported even the smallest
of measurements to His Majesty.

00:46:01.847 --> 00:46:06.018
Was there really a need
to be that precise?

00:46:24.828 --> 00:46:27.581
A house of 21 kan will be used
to build it with 4 dan and 4 jum…

00:46:27.664 --> 00:46:28.832
DEATH

00:46:35.756 --> 00:46:39.384
…and a house of 22 kan will become
3 dan and 9 jum.

00:46:41.261 --> 00:46:44.014
QUEEN

00:46:48.018 --> 00:46:49.478
That day, it was not me

00:46:50.938 --> 00:46:53.106
who Jung Euikyun came to see.

00:46:54.441 --> 00:46:59.446
It was to report to His Majesty
that the Queen was dying.

00:47:12.376 --> 00:47:13.877
It is as you said.

00:47:14.002 --> 00:47:16.588
Councilor Park's niece
will be selected as the Queen.

00:47:18.382 --> 00:47:19.842
What the skies and earth may know

00:47:22.302 --> 00:47:25.013
have yet to reach the ears of the King.

00:47:27.057 --> 00:47:28.684
The Left State Councilor has the power…

00:47:31.854 --> 00:47:34.106
to even keep the world from talking.

00:47:35.107 --> 00:47:37.568
With the Queen and the Crown Prince
on his side,

00:47:38.819 --> 00:47:42.781
his family will be in power
for generations to come.

00:47:43.365 --> 00:47:44.199
Your Majesty,

00:47:44.283 --> 00:47:47.202
order me to bring you his head

00:47:47.578 --> 00:47:50.497
and that is what I will do.

00:47:51.748 --> 00:47:54.251
Beheading him
will not bring this to an end.

00:47:54.835 --> 00:47:57.588
All meritorious subjects
must be brought down as well.

00:48:00.674 --> 00:48:02.009
Prepare for my secret outing.

00:48:03.135 --> 00:48:06.346
Have the cavalry guards join me!

00:48:06.388 --> 00:48:07.347
But Your Majesty…

00:48:07.472 --> 00:48:09.308
This is the beginning.

00:48:12.519 --> 00:48:13.812
I cannot let…

00:48:15.647 --> 00:48:18.066
the niece of Councilor Park
become the Queen.

00:48:41.673 --> 00:48:43.842
You summoned me, my lord.

00:48:45.385 --> 00:48:47.137
Is Yeonhee involved with a man?

00:48:47.638 --> 00:48:49.932
That is preposterous, my lord!

00:48:54.394 --> 00:48:56.063
Then explain this letter.

00:48:56.271 --> 00:48:58.357
It… only speaks of lies.

00:48:59.858 --> 00:49:01.568
Will you bet your life on it?

00:49:04.446 --> 00:49:05.948
Keep an eye on Yeonhee

00:49:06.907 --> 00:49:09.618
and report back to me
if any man lurks around her.

00:49:09.743 --> 00:49:12.788
If you dare collude with her to fool me,

00:49:16.833 --> 00:49:18.877
I will cut off your head myself.

00:49:20.754 --> 00:49:21.964
What is this?

00:49:22.339 --> 00:49:26.593
Some scholar asked
that I give this to you.

00:49:34.226 --> 00:49:36.395
Lady Yeonhee
just left through the back door.

00:50:27.404 --> 00:50:30.407
I announce my presence to His Majesty.

00:50:55.557 --> 00:50:57.642
Submit yourself as a candidate
in the Queen selection.

00:50:58.226 --> 00:50:59.895
It will do no good.

00:51:01.271 --> 00:51:03.815
The whole world knows that
the Left State Councilor's niece

00:51:03.857 --> 00:51:05.275
is set to wed the King.

00:51:05.817 --> 00:51:07.152
During the three-stage process,

00:51:08.361 --> 00:51:10.614
I may choose the family
from which my queen is from.

00:51:15.327 --> 00:51:16.453
I…

00:51:17.412 --> 00:51:18.914
do not follow.

00:51:19.498 --> 00:51:21.458
Is there a particular family…

00:51:23.794 --> 00:51:24.836
you have in mind?

00:51:25.504 --> 00:51:26.671
There is.

00:51:28.048 --> 00:51:29.174
You are…

00:51:30.675 --> 00:51:32.177
who I want.

00:51:42.562 --> 00:51:43.647
Halt!

00:51:52.948 --> 00:51:54.658
Capture all the men you see.

00:51:55.367 --> 00:51:57.327
You may slay those who resist!

00:53:04.477 --> 00:53:05.478
Halt!

00:53:09.232 --> 00:53:10.525
Are you not the cavalry guards?

00:53:14.237 --> 00:53:16.198
Why are His Majesty's guards here?

00:53:38.428 --> 00:53:40.388
I, Minister of War, Cho Wonpyo,

00:53:41.139 --> 00:53:42.807
announce myself in His Majesty's presence.

00:54:05.956 --> 00:54:08.458
His Majesty has been gone for 30 minutes.

00:54:08.917 --> 00:54:12.629
The cavalry guards
accompanied him on his outing,

00:54:12.754 --> 00:54:16.216
so I will find out where he went
as soon as he returns.

00:54:17.217 --> 00:54:18.218
Or…

00:54:18.343 --> 00:54:22.305
should I have
Jung Euikyun brought in immediately?

00:54:23.515 --> 00:54:25.767
As if I care about some eunuch.

00:54:26.434 --> 00:54:27.978
It is His Majesty that matters.

00:54:28.645 --> 00:54:30.397
He has fallen through the cracks.

00:54:31.398 --> 00:54:33.108
There must be a reason

00:54:33.191 --> 00:54:36.278
why he has been collecting information
with a code he secretly invented.

00:54:37.696 --> 00:54:41.574
Where his head is at
and what he plans to do.

00:54:44.577 --> 00:54:45.912
That you must find out.

00:54:51.209 --> 00:54:54.963
I must say I am embarrassed
to have been caught by you.

00:54:56.214 --> 00:54:59.718
I am the one to blame
for not properly educating my daughter.

00:54:59.884 --> 00:55:01.428
Please let the affair be forgotten.

00:55:02.595 --> 00:55:05.098
I will silence all the men
that were present tonight.

00:55:05.682 --> 00:55:06.683
Of course.

00:55:09.144 --> 00:55:10.687
They may not listen to me,

00:55:12.647 --> 00:55:14.566
but they sure will listen to you.

00:55:18.153 --> 00:55:20.238
However, will you be able
to keep me silent as well?

00:55:23.408 --> 00:55:24.534
I…

00:55:25.452 --> 00:55:27.245
will make my way to the Queen Dowager…

00:55:28.371 --> 00:55:31.624
and announce that your daughter and I
have already embraced one another.

00:55:31.708 --> 00:55:32.876
Your Majesty!

00:55:34.085 --> 00:55:37.088
You will be condemning my daughter!

00:55:39.424 --> 00:55:40.592
How dare you.

00:55:43.053 --> 00:55:46.598
Is that how you view
the noble status of a queen?

00:55:58.818 --> 00:56:01.196
I am fully aware of how loyal

00:56:02.197 --> 00:56:03.907
you truly are.

00:56:04.908 --> 00:56:08.495
How clever and noble you are
stay undetected by our ignorant people

00:56:08.578 --> 00:56:11.206
as they continue to only see you
as Councilor Park's lackey.

00:56:12.832 --> 00:56:14.417
That is what saddens me.

00:56:21.674 --> 00:56:22.717
Minister Cho,

00:56:25.053 --> 00:56:26.888
be the grandfather of my eldest son.

00:56:32.685 --> 00:56:33.812
It is my wish

00:56:34.437 --> 00:56:37.732
to father a child with your daughter.

00:56:58.211 --> 00:57:01.047
All right. Are you ready to head out?

00:57:02.424 --> 00:57:03.425
Shall we?

00:57:08.054 --> 00:57:09.139
Off we go.

00:57:18.064 --> 00:57:19.065
Your Majesty,

00:57:20.233 --> 00:57:21.818
should I bring a fan in?

00:57:22.735 --> 00:57:23.736
There is no need.

00:57:25.071 --> 00:57:28.032
There were men by the crafter's shop
plotting an abduction.

00:57:29.367 --> 00:57:30.535
Did you report it?

00:57:30.577 --> 00:57:32.078
I did, but

00:57:33.288 --> 00:57:35.165
a punishment was not issued

00:57:35.915 --> 00:57:38.168
mainly because their target was unharmed.

00:57:40.378 --> 00:57:41.379
However,

00:57:43.047 --> 00:57:45.175
since this seems to involve Lady Yoo Jung,

00:57:45.633 --> 00:57:47.719
I advise you to no longer
be invested in the matter.

00:57:53.766 --> 00:57:56.644
-Why were they after her though?
-Your Majesty,

00:57:56.728 --> 00:57:59.314
it is time for your daily lessons.

00:58:17.707 --> 00:58:19.584
"Scholar officials manage the royal court

00:58:19.667 --> 00:58:22.253
and military officials
protect our borders."

00:58:22.629 --> 00:58:26.758
It is why one must be thorough
when appointing a general.

00:58:26.966 --> 00:58:30.428
Respectable councilors
will add weight to the royal court

00:58:30.887 --> 00:58:32.013
and that will in turn…

00:58:32.096 --> 00:58:36.017
And the money she earned from sales
is stacked at her house.

00:58:36.142 --> 00:58:39.687
All we need to do is abduct her
and squeeze her for the money!

00:58:42.148 --> 00:58:44.317
Since this seems to involve Lady Yoo Jung,

00:58:44.442 --> 00:58:46.986
I advise you to no longer
be invested in the matter.

00:58:49.697 --> 00:58:51.407
I am done with today's lessons.

00:58:52.867 --> 00:58:54.327
Bring me Eunuch Jung.

00:58:58.331 --> 00:58:59.499
Your Majesty.

00:58:59.624 --> 00:59:04.003
After finishing his daily duties,
Eunuch Jung left the palace on errands.

00:59:04.087 --> 00:59:06.464
Send someone.
Have him return to the palace at once.

00:59:06.714 --> 00:59:10.134
It will still take about an hour.

00:59:18.268 --> 00:59:19.227
Your Majesty,

00:59:19.269 --> 00:59:21.938
you do not seem at ease.

00:59:22.605 --> 00:59:24.857
May I suggest that you

00:59:25.316 --> 00:59:28.236
head to the library and take a short nap?

00:59:33.032 --> 00:59:34.117
Have it prepared.

00:59:35.118 --> 00:59:36.327
Yes, Your Majesty.

00:59:54.637 --> 00:59:56.222
Someone with a eunuch's identity tag

00:59:56.306 --> 00:59:57.599
exited the palace.

00:59:58.308 --> 01:00:01.853
Many assume that it was His Majesty.

01:02:20.825 --> 01:02:22.034
Hey!

01:02:22.118 --> 01:02:25.621
Hey, get up. Damn it!

01:02:25.705 --> 01:02:27.582
Get up, you. Darn it!

01:02:36.966 --> 01:02:39.469
-Who put you up to this?
-This?

01:02:39.927 --> 01:02:41.512
No one.

01:02:41.596 --> 01:02:45.224
Then, why are you after the lady?

01:02:45.308 --> 01:02:47.935
-Is it the money?
-Well, you see…

01:02:48.102 --> 01:02:49.937
As long as that greed exists,

01:02:51.898 --> 01:02:53.316
you will go after her again.

01:02:53.357 --> 01:02:55.067
Of course not.

01:02:55.151 --> 01:02:58.696
If you let me live, I will never again…

01:03:12.794 --> 01:03:13.836
My lord?

01:03:31.979 --> 01:03:35.775
What you saw and heard.
Tell me everything you know.

01:03:41.405 --> 01:03:43.658
You were almost injured.
How can you be this reckless?

01:03:45.243 --> 01:03:46.744
I am all right.

01:03:48.037 --> 01:03:49.539
What is going on though?

01:03:49.664 --> 01:03:50.957
Why was an arrow shot?

01:03:56.337 --> 01:03:57.588
It is nothing.

01:03:57.672 --> 01:04:00.007
How can it be nothing
when you are bleeding?

01:04:12.478 --> 01:04:13.938
Who did this?

01:04:14.522 --> 01:04:15.565
Why are you angry?

01:04:15.648 --> 01:04:17.483
How can I not be when you are hurt?

01:04:26.909 --> 01:04:29.078
I will not ask why you carry a sword

01:04:30.663 --> 01:04:33.207
or why I cannot see you daily.

01:04:34.208 --> 01:04:35.167
But,

01:04:35.877 --> 01:04:37.962
I am done seeing you hurt

01:04:39.171 --> 01:04:40.298
and in pain.

01:04:42.258 --> 01:04:43.175
That is why…

01:04:46.178 --> 01:04:47.638
I ask you to take me as your wife.

01:05:05.615 --> 01:05:07.742
There is a woman His Majesty sees…

01:05:08.951 --> 01:05:10.202
during…

01:05:11.287 --> 01:05:12.872
his secret outings?

01:05:16.959 --> 01:05:20.546
I wish to comfort you
from your unspoken hardships.

01:05:22.757 --> 01:05:23.883
My heart…

01:05:24.967 --> 01:05:26.344
beats for you.

01:05:41.233 --> 01:05:42.485
I am afraid…

01:05:46.447 --> 01:05:47.907
I already have…

01:05:50.618 --> 01:05:52.078
one to betroth.

01:06:15.977 --> 01:06:18.938
BLOODY HEART

01:06:36.789 --> 01:06:39.709
I need… that woman.

01:06:41.585 --> 01:06:42.795
Please take my hand.

01:06:43.379 --> 01:06:44.714
That I cannot do.

01:06:44.797 --> 01:06:47.758
His Majesty harbors affection
for another young lady.

01:06:47.800 --> 01:06:50.344
Will she be an obstacle
in the royal marriage?

01:06:50.428 --> 01:06:51.804
What is it that I do not know?

01:06:51.804 --> 01:06:53.681
The next time we meet,
I will tell you everything.

01:06:53.723 --> 01:06:55.725
How will you handle the issue?

01:06:55.808 --> 01:06:57.226
It is a great opportunity.

01:06:57.309 --> 01:06:59.770
Why miss the chance to bring him pleasure?

01:06:59.812 --> 01:07:03.691
Despite the high status,
she will be despised.

01:07:03.733 --> 01:07:06.152
Challenge me with any woman you please.
