[Episode 22]
General, we are all safe.
What about Bang Won?
This is a letter
from Young Master Bang Won.
I will add my support to your effort
in preventing a bloody tragedy.
So please achieve victory.
Of course, victory will be mine.
I will win.
What are you saying?
All of Yi Seong Gye's
family members escaped?
Yes, Your Majesty Queen Dowager.
The first squad of Anjanggun Army
is keeping an eye on Dohwa Mansion.
How could they escape?
There was a secret path in Dohwa Mansion.
They took that path to leave in secret.
[King Woo (The 32nd King of Goryeo)]
How could you bungle this?
How could we not know the secret path
that they knew about?
Sire!
Based on the letter they sent
this can be over
once I alone take responsibility.
Please remove me and protect
the safety of the royal court!
Without you, there is no such thing
as my safety! Can't you understand?
So put up posters all over the country
saying that they are rebels!
And gather soldiers.
Spend whatever assets are necessary to
gather soldiers and fight them!
- Do you understand, General?
- Yes, sire!
I will serve you with my life, sire!
We have to identify their route.
We don't have as many soldiers
as the enemy.
We have to concentrate our force!
Yi Seong Gye's army
is in front of the North Gate!
General, Suneui Gate
is being attacked right now.
General Jo Min Soo is leading the attack!
Yi Seong Gye is leading the main squad.
If Jo Min Soo took Suneui Gate
Yi Seong Gye will definitely
attack Sungin Gate!
But Suneui Gate
is too close to the palace.
If we lose, they will be very close
to His Majesty's residence.
First…
we will go to Suneui Gate,
closer to the palace.
We will destroy Jo Min Soo's army and
reduce the number of rebels by half.
- So order them to gather at Suneui Gate!
- Yes, sir!
His Majesty's royal command states that
all the soldiers who returned are rebels.
Also, those who volunteer to become
His Majesty's soldier
will be given a silver coin.
And the reward on the head of the rebel's
generals will be 100 nyang of gold coins.
I brought one for you.
General Choi Young
is recruiting soldiers.
- Recruiting soldiers?
- What does it mean?
All of you team leaders here
tell your teams
to volunteer to become their soldiers.
What?
You want us to become
General Choi Young's soldiers?
Shouldn't we be helping
General Yi Seong Gye?
Leader Boon Yi told us to do it,
so just do it!
Shut your mouth
and listen to Leader Boon Yi!
This is a battle General Yi Seong Gye
will have to win anyway.
But… there is no reason for our
powerless soldiers to shed blood.
Therefore,
we have to win without a battle
without shedding blood if it is possible.
So, all of you should stay
as General Choi Young's soldiers.
When we send a signal…
that's when you should follow
the instructions precisely.
- Do you understand?
- Of course!
I'm Lee Pal Yong.
What is this?
- It's General Yi's army.
- General Yi's army?
Isn't this the horn that they blow before
General Yi's army starts an attack?
I hear it from everywhere!
It means Gaegyeong
is completely surrounded!
[In front of Sungin Gate]
As I was deciding on withdrawing the army
I have thought about the kinghood of a
new country as you mentioned, Sambong.
But even for a small battle
I have seen all my life that people are
forced to make countless sacrifices.
So, to found a country?
Establish a country?
Yes, General.
I also try not
to think in a hasty manner.
Even if you had to sacrifice your family
you made the choice that you couldn't
betray the citizens.
I am aware how agonizing it must have
been to come to such a decision.
If we removed General Choi Young
from power early on as you said…
we wouldn't have this bloody situation.
The citizens and the noble men
will be stirred up as you wished.
Bang Won and our contacts must also be
working hard to prevent a disaster.
It is very easy.
What is your request?
Deliver a message to your brother
that you wish him to remain alive.
He is a captain in the Central Army.
Your cousin is a general.
Please convince them to save themselves
and their soldiers.
Do you mean that they should remove their
soldiers from General Choi Young's army?
Yes.
- Stay out of the army?
- It's Teacher Sambong's earnest request.
Please convince all military officers
in Sadaebu.
It is their own decision to make.
It is also your choice
to prevent a bloody tragedy.
What do you mean?
While you were leading the battle
at Suneui Gate--
That's enough! Get to the point!
Many soldiers among the guards
are running away.
General! General!
General! At Sungin Gate…
At Sungin Gate…
Hurry up and say it!
General Min's army that was guarding
Sungin Gate disappeared!
That's not all.
General Ahn's army waiting in ambush
scattered and disappeared, General!
Without guards,
and casualties at Suneui Gate…
we don't even have two, three thousand
soldiers who can fight…
We have to protect His Majesty.
You should assemble all of
the remaining force at the palace!
Yes, sir!
It's done! It's done!
All of the soldiers from Sungin Gate
have left.
Lanterns!
Now!
Brother, the lanterns are up.
March to Sungin Gate!
Sungin Gate is open!
There is no difference, there is no difference
I'm asking the world…
What could be different
between politics and swords?
A nameless bird in the sky…
Why is your cry so mournful?
The ground where a wild flower wilted
can't be found anyway
A nameless bird in the sky…
Why is your cry so mournful?
The ground where a wild flower wilted
can't be found anyway
A nameless bird in the sky…
Why is your cry so mournful?
The ground where a wild flower wilted
can't be found anyway
Sire! I have to protect him!
Sire! I have to protect His Majesty!
Where did His Majesty go?
He went to the garden.
Your Majesty.
My disloyalty deserves death
but I am going to protect you
to the end, sire!
So please escape the palace with me
and later--
Let's just be done with it.
All of you told me to be king, so I did.
And you told me to enjoy life…
so I was abandoned
in the midst of pleasure.
But… finally you told me
to participate in politics…
so I was going to.
But I… couldn't do anything after all.
What on earth is this situation?
Sire.
But I plan to show you
one thing that I do better
than the previous King Gongmin.
I will not abandon the palace.
I will not run away.
What is my crime?
Quit your nonsense and tell me the truth!
You don't have a speck of personal greed,
but you grabbed power.
Since you didn't have
even a speck of greed
you didn't allow anyone to have
their own interest or hope.
And you pushed them to war, to pain.
Also, you cannot break this country
although it is rotten to the core.
Knowing Lee In Gyeom's previous crimes
you couldn't punish him.
Knowing the harmful consequences
of the powerful, noble families
you participated in politics
with them as your base.
Even if we consider
your integrity separately
you cannot break up this corruption.
Do you think you can break it?
The moment you try to break it,
you need power.
You will need more military power,
and to gain more power
you have to steal away
the citizen's land!
Then, before you know it, you will be
another Shin Don, another Hong In Bang
and another Choi Choong Heon!
Why don't you watch me?
That will never happen.
Let me ask for one favor
so that I can leave in peace.
Protect His Majesty.
Protect this country and the government!
Why are you not answering me?
I will protect
the citizens of this country.
What… do you mean by that?
- Escort him away.
- Yes, sir.
Yi Seong Gye!
What are you thinking right now?
Yi Seong Gye!
Yi Seong Gye!
Moo Hyul! Moo Hyul!
- Grandma!
- I'm so proud of you!
- Go inside. I'll come soon.
- Sure, sure.
- I'm proud of you!
- So proud of you!
I'm so proud of you, Moo Hyul!
Father!
General Yi Seong Gye! Hooray! Hooray!
That's only for the god-sent ruler!
If anyone heard you,
you would be severely punished!
Is there another god-sent ruler?
To me, General Yi who saved my son's life
is the god-sent ruler!
Hooray, General Yi Seong Gye!
Hooray for General Yi Seong Gye!
General.
Congratulations on your victory.
Father, all of the citizens are joyous.
The market is filled with
voices calling your name, General.
Yes, I also screamed as much as I could.
And thank you so much
for bringing my grandchildren back.
I screamed too,
"General Yi Seong Gye, hooray!"
Hooray! Hooray!
You did very well. Good job.
I haven't done much.
Yes, you did very well.
You worked hard in the city.
And if you didn't help
get the soldiers' to retreat
much more blood would have been shed
in Manwoldae.
Boon Yi was incredible.
She led our contacts perfectly.
Please recognize her contribution.
I have to leave
to take care of the rest of work.
My dear, give good wine to
Boon Yi's people and the soldiers.
Yes I will, General.
Everyone, you worked
very hard last night.
I have some wine for you.
More than anything,
not even one of us got hurt.
I am so happy and relieved about that.
It's all thanks to our Leader Boon Yi!
Are you doing all right?
Of course, I'm fine.
Are you that happy about it?
Are you really happy
about Sambong's new country…
and do you feel that desperate about it?
Brother… I have one dream.
A dream?
And it is possible that the dream
may come true in the new country.
How?
I went into Sambong's cave
and took a peek at the new country
he was planning to create.
And… it really could come true.
What is your dream?
It is…
I will tell you later.
If I tell you too soon,
it could be bad luck.
Just that one name
I am unable to speak it, so in my heart
I bury it
Because you rise up in me
Because I couldn't hold it in anymore
Brother, I have one dream.
I'm just shedding tears
You did well yesterday.
You too.
I'll get going.
In my frozen, almost stopped heart
The time that is you, flows
Dream?
Did you want to see me?
I have never doubted your loyalty.
We collided in every aspect
in many situations
but I have never doubted your loyalty.
Yes. But Jung Do Jeon
is different from us.
What is different?
Sambong has a foul nose for treason…
and never hesitates to cross the line.
Have you considered a possibility that
he could lead Yi Seong Gye to revolt?
Revolt?
Please watch your words!
If going against the royal command
and taking down His Majesty
are not considered revolt, then what is?
Against the Queen Dowager's objection
he established a king with uncertain
blood from the previous king.
He even controlled the country
however he wanted!
Lee In Gyeom's behavior was treason!
And you will not be able to avoid
responsibility for supporting him!
Poeun!
What will you do if Sambong and
Yi Seong Gye won't end after His Majesty?
Your accusation has crossed the line.
That will not happen.
I will not let that happen.
Prime Minister of the Left
will be General Jo Min Soo.
And Prime Minister of the Right
will be General Yi Seong Gye.
Do you have any objection?
Also, General Yi recommended Yoon So Jong
for Chancellor of Sunkyunkwan
and Jung Do Jeon for Governor
and requested a minister position.
You haven't decided on the minister yet?
Yes, please give us some time for that.
I see.
What about the people we recommended…
I agree on all of them.
Then I will submit this list
to Queen Dowager
and receive confirmation
within three days.
The issue now is the throne.
Why don't we establish Prince Jungchang,
the seventh generation of King Sunjong?
Prince Jungchang?
He is good in all aspects,
including integrity and morale.
Since this is an important matter
let's discuss this again in Dodang
on the day we receive
the Queen Dowager's confirmation.
- Prince Jungchang Wang Hyo?
- Yes.
He is well-rounded and trusted by
many different factions of power.
It looks like General Jo won't oppose.
Yes, I can say that all of us
will share the same opinion on him.
By the way, General Jo requested all
finance-related posts, so I agreed.
But would it be all right?
Rather than standing against them
over matters like this
we have to take the positions for reform
and help the citizens to breathe.
By "reform", do you mean what you
have talked about for a while?
Yes, since we have finally
gained power to start
we should accelerate the reform.
Then will the frightful scholar
come to Gaegyeong?
He is one of the best talents who has
been going around in the country
for the last few years
and studying only one thing.
Then why didn't we appoint him
as a minister right away?
I haven't caught up with him yet.
But it has to be him… in order
for the reform to be successful.
Our Sadaebu should also gather support
and lead the reform with one heart.
So please be the center for us, Teacher.
- Is that why you wanted to gather today?
- Yes.
There is no reason to stay apart
for the reason of factions
or to distance yourselves from
Jung Do Jeon because of the class.
[Lee Saek] We didn't
distance ourselves from Sambong.
Sambong distanced himself from us.
It's not true.
It's a misunderstanding, Teacher!
We have to look beyond factions
and gather support now.
Do Eun and Heo Jung who were exiled
for opposing the Liaodong expedition
will be back.
Let's take this chance
and realize our reform plan.
"Reform"?
You are right.
It is an opportunity right now.
I will send a message to everyone.
By the way,
did the generals from the withdrawal
make the decision on the next king?
It will be determined
by the Queen Dowager.
It is true in formality
but in the end,
she will stamp the royal seal
on the person
that the generals decide on.
I heard they were considering
Prince Jungchang.
Prince Jungchang?
He is well qualified.
Sing the song that you were singing
in the market earlier.
What are you doing right now?
Just listen to him. Go on!
Eighteen children become kings
reign of peace will flourish.
When will my dear come from the north?
Let us go for a picnic with
a flower petal on our lips.
Eighteen children… will become kings?
Yi will become king?
It is a rumor of Yi becoming king.
Where did you hear this song?
Kids are singing it in the market.
Yi from the north? Who could it be?
It means that Yi Seong Gye
will become king!
What? Yi to become king?
Yes, it means that Yi
will become king, doesn't it?
At the time we need
to establish a new king
how could that nonsense
prediction spread?
Actually, even in history
his rumor used to come up when we
had a powerful ruler from the Yi Family.
A ruler from the Yi family?
Here we have General Jo
in a firm position.
Everyone was praising only Yi Seong Gye,
even during the withdrawal.
Come to think of it…
maybe this is why
they are spreading nonsense.
"Nonsense"?
At the top officials' meeting
while they were discussing the throne,
Yi Seong Gye became furious
and threw a water container
at General Jo…
The ranks are clear
so how could General Jo let him
be humiliated by Yi Seong Gye,
his subordinate?
That's right!
The servants were talking nonsense,
so I taught them a good lesson.
Well done.
But Yi Seong Gye must be great anyway.
People believe it
because it sounds believable.
Is that right?
Eighteen children will become kings
a reign of peace will flourish.
When will my dear come from the north?
Let us go for a picnic
with a flower petal on the lips.
- What is that song?
- It's spreading all over the market.
That our general will become king!
I heard the General
will become the next king.
How dare you!
What are you talking about?
Is it not true?
You shouldn't say such things
so carelessly.
Yes.
But Heaven's fortune
must be following General Yi.
They say that the citizen's heart
means Heaven's heart.
The citizens want General Yi.
So don't scold them too much.
He's right! Our General will supposedly
become the next king!
What on earth are you saying?
A strange song
is spreading in the market.
The song starts with, "Eighteen children
will become kings."
Eighteen children…
This is the rumor of Yi to become king.
Although the lyric is a bit different
it is a type of scholarly prediction
that also existed before.
Sir, it means that the public opinion
is following General Yi.
So why are you so upset?
The rumor of Yi to become king
is not a prediction that represents
the public opinion.
Think about the Yi's
who have fallen for that rumor.
Lee Yi Bang, Lee Ja Gyeom, Lee Eui Min…
All of them were accused of being
traitors and faced horrible deaths.
There hasn't been a ruler
who fell for these rumors and survived.
The timing is too perfect.
Now everyone will look at General Yi
as someone to watch out for.
Someone spread it
with a specific purpose.
We are already looking
for the initial singers.
Just who is it? Who would…
Could it be…
Who did you hear it from?
Man Seok told me that some man
gives out taffy for learning that song.
Where is Man Seok?
In the house with a persimmon tree
at the end of the street.
Thank you.
Hey.
Didn't I tell you
to take a break for a while?
The doctor told you to rest, too.
People like us get better quickly
if we eat a lot and move a lot.
Really…
- I heard it's Kang Po.
- Kang Po?
Yes. He was asked to perform a play
about some king coming from the north.
It sounded like he
received enough silver coins, too.
Let's go and check.
Eighteen sons become kings
and the reign of peace will flourish.
When will my dear come from the north?
Let's go for a picnic with
a flower petal on the lips.
When will my dear come from the north?
Let's go for a picnic with
a flower petal on the lips.
I asked you what you had in mind
as you were returning home with soldiers.
What was it?
I didn't want to betray them.
Betrayal can never happen in my life.
But it was a betrayal
of General Choi Young.
Wasn't it?
Is this because of that silly song
going around in the city?
Please answer me.
It was at the battle in Woonbong.
I spared the life of someone who
pretended to be a Japanese pirate.
But he told me in Wihwa Island…
that this was a betrayal.
That this is betraying 100,000 parents
who gave their 50,000 sons to me.
You mean you chose citizens
over General Choi Young?
Do you mean you chose the citizens
over the royal command?
What would you have done
if you were in the situation?
I only hope that I won't face such a
difficult situation as an ordinary man.
I feel the same way.
It should never happen again.
To make sure it never happens again…
I will stay by your side
and be your aide, General.
How does that sound?
You would?
If you would be with us, it is the same
as "gaining a thousand soldiers".
Would you really do that for us?
I will do my best.
From a dangerous and rebellious
decision that may happen in the future
I will absolutely
make sure to protect you.
Where did you get all this?
Your name is Man Seok, right?
We're not trying
to take it away from you.
So tell us.
Who gave you this?
Some man told me that if I gathered
around kids and spread the song
he would give me all of the taffy…
So I did what he told me to do.
Who is that man?
He looked like a peddler.
He had a burn mark right here.
If you do the performance, you
could be accused as a traitor.
Right?
Traitor? But why? Why?
Who asked you for it?
He looked like a peddler.
Do you know where he is?
They found out.
There was some peddler
who gave away taffy to kids
for learning the song.
- A peddler?
- Yes.
I ordered to have his portrait drawn.
We have to find who he is and
who he took the order from.
Yes, sir.
If my guess is correct…
this could become an opportunity.
The powerful rulers who were mentioned
in the prediction of Yi for King
became traitors and died.
For my father to be mentioned in the
prediction … won't bring any benefit.
Who would it be?
General Jo Min Soo… or Lee Saek?
If not… it could be someone who is
under the influence of the two.
Actually, the idea is the problem.
It's an easy thing that anyone can do.
You… know too much now.
- I am a bit nervous.
- Why are you nervous?
Is there a reason I shouldn't know?
No… Never mind.
Your talent is being wasted in many ways.
In many ways.
- Why are you nervous? Tell me.
- No, I'm not nervous.
You just said you were nervous.
Wait.
- Don't change the subject.
- I'm not.
Do you hear this?
When my dear husband
comes back from the North
Let's go on a picnic with a flower in our mouth
When the sun comes up, I farm.
When the sun goes down, I go home.
We were fooled! It definitely
sounded like from near here.
Eighteen sons become kings, and
the reign of peace will flourish. Begin!
Eighteen sons become kings, and
the reign of peace will flourish.
When will my dear come from the north…
Let's go for a picnic with
a flower petal on the lips!
Why don't you come down?
I have a quick question to ask.
What did I do wrong?
Then why did you run away?
You chased me all of a sudden, so I ran!
I got it, so just come down for a minute.
I won't go down! Why would I?
Why are you spreading that song to kids?
I won't tell you!
If you are upset, you should come up!
Ouch.
What is your true intention
for spreading this song?
You could be a criminal of high treason.
Do you know that?
What? High treason?
Please spare me!
I did it because I received a request.
What was the request?
I'm a peddler going around
from market to market.
Someone told me that
he'd give me silver coins
if I spread the song
in all of the markets.
That's why I did it.
- Who instigated you?
- I don't know his name.
He's very old
and looked wealthy somehow…
He even gave me this silver coin.
White apricot blossom.
What is this?
It is a silver coin of
"White Apricot Blossom"
used by Lee In Gyeom's family.
Where did you meet with that man?
It's not Gaegyeong, is it?
No, it wasn't Gaegyeong…
It must be Gyeongsanbu? It is, isn't it?
Yes, you're right!
I was asked in Gyeongsanbu five days ago.
Lee In Gyeom, this man…
Listen carefully.
You sang a song that was humiliating
to the king of this country
so you should of course be punished
as a criminal of high treason.
What?
But if you help us,
you will earn a fortune.
Fortune?
If you would give me fortune…
Can you testify?
Then the Yi family of Jeonju
will spare your life at least.
If you'd give me a lot of fortune…
don't even worry about my testimony!
The peddler confessed.
He received this for spreading the song.
This is… the White Apricot Blossom
used by Lee In Gyeom's family!
- So it's Lee In Gyeom.
- Yes, it's Lee In Gyeom.
Even in his exile, Lee In Gyeom is
working from behind the scenes.
I knew that he wouldn't
step back without a fight.
That's why so many officials
demanded to have Lee In Gyeom executed!
Teacher,
will you leave Lee In Gyeom like this?
The peddler said he would be glad to
testify as long as he received a fortune.
Can we arrest Lee In Gyeom?
His crime is spreading the song of
"Prediction of Yi for King"
and stirring up the government.
He also alienated the generals
who withdrew the army.
You should go to Gyeongsanbu with
soldiers of the State Tribunal
and find evidence to arrest Lee In Gyeom
right away!
Yes, sir.
I will go with him.
I have something to resolve
with Lee In Gyeom for the last time.
Prediction of Yi for King?
Yi Seong Gye wouldn't be capable of it.
But Jung Do Jeon…
I don't know what he has in mind.
My lord…
A letter came for you
from Lord Lee In Gyeom.
Lord Lee?
People's support has completely tipped
for Yi Seong Gye anyway.
Yi Seong Gye is an in-law
of Haedong Clan!
Would it be all right if Prince Jungchang
recommended by Yi Seong Gye became king?
My lord,
someone brought a letter for you…
Someone?
He just asked me
to deliver it to you urgently.
Goodness, General Jo.
What brought you here?
I received Lord Lee In Gyeom's letter.
Yes, I also came
after receiving an urgent letter.
- Let's go inside.
- Yes.
Your Majesty Queen Dowager.
What brought you here, Your Majesty?
I received a letter from Lee In Gyeom,
so I came here in secret.
Is this also how
the two of you came here?
We did, ma'am.
[Queen Jung (Wife of King Gongmin)]
How strange.
I didn't see a man sent by Lee In Gyeom,
and when I came to this room…
I only saw this.
This is…
"The sun reached the tree"?
What does this mean?
This is a secret code.
Can you solve this?
This is probably…
Chang, Reach, Yi.
"Chang reaches Yi"?
Could it be…
When is the date of submitting
the reorganization of Dodang
to Her Majesty Queen Dowager?
It is in five days,
but I believe we should
move up the date
because of an ominous rumor.
Do you mean the rumor of
"Prediction of Yi for King"?
Did Lee In Gyeom really spread the rumor?
Based on what we found out so far,
it seems so.
I sent Nam Eun to Gyeongsanbu.
If it is Lee In Gyeom… he won't be
able to get away with it this time.
If it can happen that way…
In any case, we shouldn't drag anymore.
Before they come up with something else
we have to confirm the recommendation
of Prince Jungchang today.
I understand.
Prime Minister of the Left went to the
Queen Dowager to receive instruction.
As soon as he comes back,
we will begin our meeting.
We have the Queen Dowager's instruction.
I will deliver her instruction now.
"To the officials of Dodang,
the core of Great Goryeo"
"and the pillar of the government"
"I announce the wish of the royal court."
[Lee In Gyeom's House, Gyeongsanbu]
This is where Lee In Gyeom is exiled?
How could a criminal be exiled
to a place like this?
For someone who built
evil deeds his whole life
how could he sit here
comfortably plotting schemes
rather than atoning for his sin?
It's over now.
Come out here! Come out here!
What is this about?
We came from
the State Tribunal in Gaegyeong.
Is this where Criminal Lee In Gyeom
is exiled?
It is, but…
Step aside!
Criminal Lee In Gyeom,
come out and receive the rope!
What on earth do you mean?
What do I mean?
Didn't you hear me?
Criminal Lee In Gyeom--
He passed away 15 days ago,
so how could he receive the order?
What? What did you say?
"Fortunately, Choi Young was ousted"
"and King is handing over the throne
as he regrets his deeds."
"This must also be
from the virtue of the government."
"Therefore,
the existence of Great Goryeo"
"the livelihoods of the citizens,
and prosperity of the government…"
"will be inherited by…
Crown Prince Chang."
He has tremendous responsibilities.
What?
What are you saying right now?
We were supposed to submit our opinion
to the Queen Dowager in five days!
So why…
What on earth is this?
Prime Minister of the Left is reading
the Queen Dowager's message!
How can you be so rude?
They had already agreed on this?
What a loss! Crown Prince Chang?
Jo Min Soo, how dare you!
There was a separate instruction to hold
the coronation ceremony next month.
Did you say it was fifteen days ago?
Yes. Lord Lee In Gyeom passed away
fifteen days ago…
and we completed the funeral, too.
I received the request
five days ago in Gyeongsanbu.
He definitely said it was five days ago.
But he died fifteen days ago?
Then why didn't you notify Dodang?
We were going to…
but some scholar asked us earnestly
not to send the news for a while…
What? Crime of high treason?
Please spare me!
I just did what I was told!
The hand!
It wasn't the hand of a peddler.
Some scholar? Who is he?
I'm not sure.
He looked like a relative.
Answer me!
Did he have a burn mark on his wrist?
Yes, yes! He did!
Goodness.
The rumor says,
at the officials' meeting…
Yi Seong Gye got very upset
while discussing the next throne
and threw a water container
at General Jo…
I did what you told me to do…
but can the noble class
really be revived?
The reign of peace will flourish…
I did what you told me to do,
and they're coming to get you now.
Really? Good job!
Here! Have taffy!
Go now!
All right, let's sing again!
Eighteen sons become kings…
I request to see you in secret
at 10 o'clock tonight in Heungguk Temple.
Lee In Gyeom.
You have to make sure to deliver
this separately in secret.
Chang, Reach, Yi.
"Chang reaches Yi"?
We have to put Crown Prince on the throne
and keep Yi Seong Gye in check.
Didn't we all hear
the "Prediction of Yi for King"?
Did we fail? Did we already fail?
Yes, you failed, Brother Sambong.
- It's him.
- It's him?
The peddler didn't receive
a request from anyone.
He did it on his own.
You must've been
chasing dead Lee In Gyeom
so you had no choice but to fail.
[Ha Ryun]
By this Ha Ryun.
[Ha Ryun, Strategist who establishes
Yi Bang Won in the throne later.]

[Six Flying Dragons]
Why do you say Sambong is dangerous?
When the only thing he has is a hammer,
the world looks full of nails.
Sambong's hammer.
After a tremendous study, why don't
you share it with the world?
Because it will never work!
It will absolutely never work!
There is someone who's aiming
for Jo Joon's material.
We have to keep him safe.
To take land
from the powerful noble class
and distribute it equally
to the citizens.
Wasn't it your dream?
If you really mean it,
why don't you get on your knees?
[Episode 22]
General, we are all safe.
What about Bang Won?
This is a letter
from Young Master Bang Won.
I will add my support to your effort
in preventing a bloody tragedy.
So please achieve victory.
Of course, victory will be mine.
I will win.
What are you saying?
All of Yi Seong Gye's
family members escaped?
Yes, Your Majesty Queen Dowager.
The first squad of Anjanggun Army
is keeping an eye on Dohwa Mansion.
How could they escape?
There was a secret path in Dohwa Mansion.
They took that path to leave in secret.
[King Woo (The 32nd King of Goryeo)]
How could you bungle this?
How could we not know the secret path
that they knew about?
Sire!
Based on the letter they sent
this can be over
once I alone take responsibility.
Please remove me and protect
the safety of the royal court!
Without you, there is no such thing
as my safety! Can't you understand?
So put up posters all over the country
saying that they are rebels!
And gather soldiers.
Spend whatever assets are necessary to
gather soldiers and fight them!
- Do you understand, General?
- Yes, sire!
I will serve you with my life, sire!
We have to identify their route.
We don't have as many soldiers
as the enemy.
We have to concentrate our force!
Yi Seong Gye's army
is in front of the North Gate!
General, Suneui Gate
is being attacked right now.
General Jo Min Soo is leading the attack!
Yi Seong Gye is leading the main squad.
If Jo Min Soo took Suneui Gate
Yi Seong Gye will definitely
attack Sungin Gate!
But Suneui Gate
is too close to the palace.
If we lose, they will be very close
to His Majesty's residence.
First…
we will go to Suneui Gate,
closer to the palace.
We will destroy Jo Min Soo's army and
reduce the number of rebels by half.
- So order them to gather at Suneui Gate!
- Yes, sir!
His Majesty's royal command states that
all the soldiers who returned are rebels.
Also, those who volunteer to become
His Majesty's soldier
will be given a silver coin.
And the reward on the head of the rebel's
generals will be 100 nyang of gold coins.
I brought one for you.
General Choi Young
is recruiting soldiers.
- Recruiting soldiers?
- What does it mean?
All of you team leaders here
tell your teams
to volunteer to become their soldiers.
What?
You want us to become
General Choi Young's soldiers?
Shouldn't we be helping
General Yi Seong Gye?
Leader Boon Yi told us to do it,
so just do it!
Shut your mouth
and listen to Leader Boon Yi!
This is a battle General Yi Seong Gye
will have to win anyway.
But… there is no reason for our
powerless soldiers to shed blood.
Therefore,
we have to win without a battle
without shedding blood if it is possible.
So, all of you should stay
as General Choi Young's soldiers.
When we send a signal…
that's when you should follow
the instructions precisely.
- Do you understand?
- Of course!
I'm Lee Pal Yong.
What is this?
- It's General Yi's army.
- General Yi's army?
Isn't this the horn that they blow before
General Yi's army starts an attack?
I hear it from everywhere!
It means Gaegyeong
is completely surrounded!
[In front of Sungin Gate]
As I was deciding on withdrawing the army
I have thought about the kinghood of a
new country as you mentioned, Sambong.
But even for a small battle
I have seen all my life that people are
forced to make countless sacrifices.
So, to found a country?
Establish a country?
Yes, General.
I also try not
to think in a hasty manner.
Even if you had to sacrifice your family
you made the choice that you couldn't
betray the citizens.
I am aware how agonizing it must have
been to come to such a decision.
If we removed General Choi Young
from power early on as you said…
we wouldn't have this bloody situation.
The citizens and the noble men
will be stirred up as you wished.
Bang Won and our contacts must also be
working hard to prevent a disaster.
It is very easy.
What is your request?
Deliver a message to your brother
that you wish him to remain alive.
He is a captain in the Central Army.
Your cousin is a general.
Please convince them to save themselves
and their soldiers.
Do you mean that they should remove their
soldiers from General Choi Young's army?
Yes.
- Stay out of the army?
- It's Teacher Sambong's earnest request.
Please convince all military officers
in Sadaebu.
It is their own decision to make.
It is also your choice
to prevent a bloody tragedy.
What do you mean?
While you were leading the battle
at Suneui Gate--
That's enough! Get to the point!
Many soldiers among the guards
are running away.
General! General!
General! At Sungin Gate…
At Sungin Gate…
Hurry up and say it!
General Min's army that was guarding
Sungin Gate disappeared!
That's not all.
General Ahn's army waiting in ambush
scattered and disappeared, General!
Without guards,
and casualties at Suneui Gate…
we don't even have two, three thousand
soldiers who can fight…
We have to protect His Majesty.
You should assemble all of
the remaining force at the palace!
Yes, sir!
It's done! It's done!
All of the soldiers from Sungin Gate
have left.
Lanterns!
Now!
Brother, the lanterns are up.
March to Sungin Gate!
Sungin Gate is open!
There is no difference, there is no difference
I'm asking the world…
What could be different
between politics and swords?
A nameless bird in the sky…
Why is your cry so mournful?
The ground where a wild flower wilted
can't be found anyway
A nameless bird in the sky…
Why is your cry so mournful?
The ground where a wild flower wilted
can't be found anyway
A nameless bird in the sky…
Why is your cry so mournful?
The ground where a wild flower wilted
can't be found anyway
Sire! I have to protect him!
Sire! I have to protect His Majesty!
Where did His Majesty go?
He went to the garden.
Your Majesty.
My disloyalty deserves death
but I am going to protect you
to the end, sire!
So please escape the palace with me
and later--
Let's just be done with it.
All of you told me to be king, so I did.
And you told me to enjoy life…
so I was abandoned
in the midst of pleasure.
But… finally you told me
to participate in politics…
so I was going to.
But I… couldn't do anything after all.
What on earth is this situation?
Sire.
But I plan to show you
one thing that I do better
than the previous King Gongmin.
I will not abandon the palace.
I will not run away.
What is my crime?
Quit your nonsense and tell me the truth!
You don't have a speck of personal greed,
but you grabbed power.
Since you didn't have
even a speck of greed
you didn't allow anyone to have
their own interest or hope.
And you pushed them to war, to pain.
Also, you cannot break this country
although it is rotten to the core.
Knowing Lee In Gyeom's previous crimes
you couldn't punish him.
Knowing the harmful consequences
of the powerful, noble families
you participated in politics
with them as your base.
Even if we consider
your integrity separately
you cannot break up this corruption.
Do you think you can break it?
The moment you try to break it,
you need power.
You will need more military power,
and to gain more power
you have to steal away
the citizen's land!
Then, before you know it, you will be
another Shin Don, another Hong In Bang
and another Choi Choong Heon!
Why don't you watch me?
That will never happen.
Let me ask for one favor
so that I can leave in peace.
Protect His Majesty.
Protect this country and the government!
Why are you not answering me?
I will protect
the citizens of this country.
What… do you mean by that?
- Escort him away.
- Yes, sir.
Yi Seong Gye!
What are you thinking right now?
Yi Seong Gye!
Yi Seong Gye!
Moo Hyul! Moo Hyul!
- Grandma!
- I'm so proud of you!
- Go inside. I'll come soon.
- Sure, sure.
- I'm proud of you!
- So proud of you!
I'm so proud of you, Moo Hyul!
Father!
General Yi Seong Gye! Hooray! Hooray!
That's only for the god-sent ruler!
If anyone heard you,
you would be severely punished!
Is there another god-sent ruler?
To me, General Yi who saved my son's life
is the god-sent ruler!
Hooray, General Yi Seong Gye!
Hooray for General Yi Seong Gye!
General.
Congratulations on your victory.
Father, all of the citizens are joyous.
The market is filled with
voices calling your name, General.
Yes, I also screamed as much as I could.
And thank you so much
for bringing my grandchildren back.
I screamed too,
"General Yi Seong Gye, hooray!"
Hooray! Hooray!
You did very well. Good job.
I haven't done much.
Yes, you did very well.
You worked hard in the city.
And if you didn't help
get the soldiers' to retreat
much more blood would have been shed
in Manwoldae.
Boon Yi was incredible.
She led our contacts perfectly.
Please recognize her contribution.
I have to leave
to take care of the rest of work.
My dear, give good wine to
Boon Yi's people and the soldiers.
Yes I will, General.
Everyone, you worked
very hard last night.
I have some wine for you.
More than anything,
not even one of us got hurt.
I am so happy and relieved about that.
It's all thanks to our Leader Boon Yi!
Are you doing all right?
Of course, I'm fine.
Are you that happy about it?
Are you really happy
about Sambong's new country…
and do you feel that desperate about it?
Brother… I have one dream.
A dream?
And it is possible that the dream
may come true in the new country.
How?
I went into Sambong's cave
and took a peek at the new country
he was planning to create.
And… it really could come true.
What is your dream?
It is…
I will tell you later.
If I tell you too soon,
it could be bad luck.
Just that one name
I am unable to speak it, so in my heart
I bury it
Because you rise up in me
Because I couldn't hold it in anymore
Brother, I have one dream.
I'm just shedding tears
You did well yesterday.
You too.
I'll get going.
In my frozen, almost stopped heart
The time that is you, flows
Dream?
Did you want to see me?
I have never doubted your loyalty.
We collided in every aspect
in many situations
but I have never doubted your loyalty.
Yes. But Jung Do Jeon
is different from us.
What is different?
Sambong has a foul nose for treason…
and never hesitates to cross the line.
Have you considered a possibility that
he could lead Yi Seong Gye to revolt?
Revolt?
Please watch your words!
If going against the royal command
and taking down His Majesty
are not considered revolt, then what is?
Against the Queen Dowager's objection
he established a king with uncertain
blood from the previous king.
He even controlled the country
however he wanted!
Lee In Gyeom's behavior was treason!
And you will not be able to avoid
responsibility for supporting him!
Poeun!
What will you do if Sambong and
Yi Seong Gye won't end after His Majesty?
Your accusation has crossed the line.
That will not happen.
I will not let that happen.
Prime Minister of the Left
will be General Jo Min Soo.
And Prime Minister of the Right
will be General Yi Seong Gye.
Do you have any objection?
Also, General Yi recommended Yoon So Jong
for Chancellor of Sunkyunkwan
and Jung Do Jeon for Governor
and requested a minister position.
You haven't decided on the minister yet?
Yes, please give us some time for that.
I see.
What about the people we recommended…
I agree on all of them.
Then I will submit this list
to Queen Dowager
and receive confirmation
within three days.
The issue now is the throne.
Why don't we establish Prince Jungchang,
the seventh generation of King Sunjong?
Prince Jungchang?
He is good in all aspects,
including integrity and morale.
Since this is an important matter
let's discuss this again in Dodang
on the day we receive
the Queen Dowager's confirmation.
- Prince Jungchang Wang Hyo?
- Yes.
He is well-rounded and trusted by
many different factions of power.
It looks like General Jo won't oppose.
Yes, I can say that all of us
will share the same opinion on him.
By the way, General Jo requested all
finance-related posts, so I agreed.
But would it be all right?
Rather than standing against them
over matters like this
we have to take the positions for reform
and help the citizens to breathe.
By "reform", do you mean what you
have talked about for a while?
Yes, since we have finally
gained power to start
we should accelerate the reform.
Then will the frightful scholar
come to Gaegyeong?
He is one of the best talents who has
been going around in the country
for the last few years
and studying only one thing.
Then why didn't we appoint him
as a minister right away?
I haven't caught up with him yet.
But it has to be him… in order
for the reform to be successful.
Our Sadaebu should also gather support
and lead the reform with one heart.
So please be the center for us, Teacher.
- Is that why you wanted to gather today?
- Yes.
There is no reason to stay apart
for the reason of factions
or to distance yourselves from
Jung Do Jeon because of the class.
[Lee Saek] We didn't
distance ourselves from Sambong.
Sambong distanced himself from us.
It's not true.
It's a misunderstanding, Teacher!
We have to look beyond factions
and gather support now.
Do Eun and Heo Jung who were exiled
for opposing the Liaodong expedition
will be back.
Let's take this chance
and realize our reform plan.
"Reform"?
You are right.
It is an opportunity right now.
I will send a message to everyone.
By the way,
did the generals from the withdrawal
make the decision on the next king?
It will be determined
by the Queen Dowager.
It is true in formality
but in the end,
she will stamp the royal seal
on the person
that the generals decide on.
I heard they were considering
Prince Jungchang.
Prince Jungchang?
He is well qualified.
Sing the song that you were singing
in the market earlier.
What are you doing right now?
Just listen to him. Go on!
Eighteen children become kings
reign of peace will flourish.
When will my dear come from the north?
Let us go for a picnic with
a flower petal on our lips.
Eighteen children… will become kings?
Yi will become king?
It is a rumor of Yi becoming king.
Where did you hear this song?
Kids are singing it in the market.
Yi from the north? Who could it be?
It means that Yi Seong Gye
will become king!
What? Yi to become king?
Yes, it means that Yi
will become king, doesn't it?
At the time we need
to establish a new king
how could that nonsense
prediction spread?
Actually, even in history
his rumor used to come up when we
had a powerful ruler from the Yi Family.
A ruler from the Yi family?
Here we have General Jo
in a firm position.
Everyone was praising only Yi Seong Gye,
even during the withdrawal.
Come to think of it…
maybe this is why
they are spreading nonsense.
"Nonsense"?
At the top officials' meeting
while they were discussing the throne,
Yi Seong Gye became furious
and threw a water container
at General Jo…
The ranks are clear
so how could General Jo let him
be humiliated by Yi Seong Gye,
his subordinate?
That's right!
The servants were talking nonsense,
so I taught them a good lesson.
Well done.
But Yi Seong Gye must be great anyway.
People believe it
because it sounds believable.
Is that right?
Eighteen children will become kings
a reign of peace will flourish.
When will my dear come from the north?
Let us go for a picnic
with a flower petal on the lips.
- What is that song?
- It's spreading all over the market.
That our general will become king!
I heard the General
will become the next king.
How dare you!
What are you talking about?
Is it not true?
You shouldn't say such things
so carelessly.
Yes.
But Heaven's fortune
must be following General Yi.
They say that the citizen's heart
means Heaven's heart.
The citizens want General Yi.
So don't scold them too much.
He's right! Our General will supposedly
become the next king!
What on earth are you saying?
A strange song
is spreading in the market.
The song starts with, "Eighteen children
will become kings."
Eighteen children…
This is the rumor of Yi to become king.
Although the lyric is a bit different
it is a type of scholarly prediction
that also existed before.
Sir, it means that the public opinion
is following General Yi.
So why are you so upset?
The rumor of Yi to become king
is not a prediction that represents
the public opinion.
Think about the Yi's
who have fallen for that rumor.
Lee Yi Bang, Lee Ja Gyeom, Lee Eui Min…
All of them were accused of being
traitors and faced horrible deaths.
There hasn't been a ruler
who fell for these rumors and survived.
The timing is too perfect.
Now everyone will look at General Yi
as someone to watch out for.
Someone spread it
with a specific purpose.
We are already looking
for the initial singers.
Just who is it? Who would…
Could it be…
Who did you hear it from?
Man Seok told me that some man
gives out taffy for learning that song.
Where is Man Seok?
In the house with a persimmon tree
at the end of the street.
Thank you.
Hey.
Didn't I tell you
to take a break for a while?
The doctor told you to rest, too.
People like us get better quickly
if we eat a lot and move a lot.
Really…
- I heard it's Kang Po.
- Kang Po?
Yes. He was asked to perform a play
about some king coming from the north.
It sounded like he
received enough silver coins, too.
Let's go and check.
Eighteen sons become kings
and the reign of peace will flourish.
When will my dear come from the north?
Let's go for a picnic with
a flower petal on the lips.
When will my dear come from the north?
Let's go for a picnic with
a flower petal on the lips.
I asked you what you had in mind
as you were returning home with soldiers.
What was it?
I didn't want to betray them.
Betrayal can never happen in my life.
But it was a betrayal
of General Choi Young.
Wasn't it?
Is this because of that silly song
going around in the city?
Please answer me.
It was at the battle in Woonbong.
I spared the life of someone who
pretended to be a Japanese pirate.
But he told me in Wihwa Island…
that this was a betrayal.
That this is betraying 100,000 parents
who gave their 50,000 sons to me.
You mean you chose citizens
over General Choi Young?
Do you mean you chose the citizens
over the royal command?
What would you have done
if you were in the situation?
I only hope that I won't face such a
difficult situation as an ordinary man.
I feel the same way.
It should never happen again.
To make sure it never happens again…
I will stay by your side
and be your aide, General.
How does that sound?
You would?
If you would be with us, it is the same
as "gaining a thousand soldiers".
Would you really do that for us?
I will do my best.
From a dangerous and rebellious
decision that may happen in the future
I will absolutely
make sure to protect you.
Where did you get all this?
Your name is Man Seok, right?
We're not trying
to take it away from you.
So tell us.
Who gave you this?
Some man told me that if I gathered
around kids and spread the song
he would give me all of the taffy…
So I did what he told me to do.
Who is that man?
He looked like a peddler.
He had a burn mark right here.
If you do the performance, you
could be accused as a traitor.
Right?
Traitor? But why? Why?
Who asked you for it?
He looked like a peddler.
Do you know where he is?
They found out.
There was some peddler
who gave away taffy to kids
for learning the song.
- A peddler?
- Yes.
I ordered to have his portrait drawn.
We have to find who he is and
who he took the order from.
Yes, sir.
If my guess is correct…
this could become an opportunity.
The powerful rulers who were mentioned
in the prediction of Yi for King
became traitors and died.
For my father to be mentioned in the
prediction … won't bring any benefit.
Who would it be?
General Jo Min Soo… or Lee Saek?
If not… it could be someone who is
under the influence of the two.
Actually, the idea is the problem.
It's an easy thing that anyone can do.
You… know too much now.
- I am a bit nervous.
- Why are you nervous?
Is there a reason I shouldn't know?
No… Never mind.
Your talent is being wasted in many ways.
In many ways.
- Why are you nervous? Tell me.
- No, I'm not nervous.
You just said you were nervous.
Wait.
- Don't change the subject.
- I'm not.
Do you hear this?
When my dear husband
comes back from the North
Let's go on a picnic with a flower in our mouth
When the sun comes up, I farm.
When the sun goes down, I go home.
We were fooled! It definitely
sounded like from near here.
Eighteen sons become kings, and
the reign of peace will flourish. Begin!
Eighteen sons become kings, and
the reign of peace will flourish.
When will my dear come from the north…
Let's go for a picnic with
a flower petal on the lips!
Why don't you come down?
I have a quick question to ask.
What did I do wrong?
Then why did you run away?
You chased me all of a sudden, so I ran!
I got it, so just come down for a minute.
I won't go down! Why would I?
Why are you spreading that song to kids?
I won't tell you!
If you are upset, you should come up!
Ouch.
What is your true intention
for spreading this song?
You could be a criminal of high treason.
Do you know that?
What? High treason?
Please spare me!
I did it because I received a request.
What was the request?
I'm a peddler going around
from market to market.
Someone told me that
he'd give me silver coins
if I spread the song
in all of the markets.
That's why I did it.
- Who instigated you?
- I don't know his name.
He's very old
and looked wealthy somehow…
He even gave me this silver coin.
White apricot blossom.
What is this?
It is a silver coin of
"White Apricot Blossom"
used by Lee In Gyeom's family.
Where did you meet with that man?
It's not Gaegyeong, is it?
No, it wasn't Gaegyeong…
It must be Gyeongsanbu? It is, isn't it?
Yes, you're right!
I was asked in Gyeongsanbu five days ago.
Lee In Gyeom, this man…
Listen carefully.
You sang a song that was humiliating
to the king of this country
so you should of course be punished
as a criminal of high treason.
What?
But if you help us,
you will earn a fortune.
Fortune?
If you would give me fortune…
Can you testify?
Then the Yi family of Jeonju
will spare your life at least.
If you'd give me a lot of fortune…
don't even worry about my testimony!
The peddler confessed.
He received this for spreading the song.
This is… the White Apricot Blossom
used by Lee In Gyeom's family!
- So it's Lee In Gyeom.
- Yes, it's Lee In Gyeom.
Even in his exile, Lee In Gyeom is
working from behind the scenes.
I knew that he wouldn't
step back without a fight.
That's why so many officials
demanded to have Lee In Gyeom executed!
Teacher,
will you leave Lee In Gyeom like this?
The peddler said he would be glad to
testify as long as he received a fortune.
Can we arrest Lee In Gyeom?
His crime is spreading the song of
"Prediction of Yi for King"
and stirring up the government.
He also alienated the generals
who withdrew the army.
You should go to Gyeongsanbu with
soldiers of the State Tribunal
and find evidence to arrest Lee In Gyeom
right away!
Yes, sir.
I will go with him.
I have something to resolve
with Lee In Gyeom for the last time.
Prediction of Yi for King?
Yi Seong Gye wouldn't be capable of it.
But Jung Do Jeon…
I don't know what he has in mind.
My lord…
A letter came for you
from Lord Lee In Gyeom.
Lord Lee?
People's support has completely tipped
for Yi Seong Gye anyway.
Yi Seong Gye is an in-law
of Haedong Clan!
Would it be all right if Prince Jungchang
recommended by Yi Seong Gye became king?
My lord,
someone brought a letter for you…
Someone?
He just asked me
to deliver it to you urgently.
Goodness, General Jo.
What brought you here?
I received Lord Lee In Gyeom's letter.
Yes, I also came
after receiving an urgent letter.
- Let's go inside.
- Yes.
Your Majesty Queen Dowager.
What brought you here, Your Majesty?
I received a letter from Lee In Gyeom,
so I came here in secret.
Is this also how
the two of you came here?
We did, ma'am.
[Queen Jung (Wife of King Gongmin)]
How strange.
I didn't see a man sent by Lee In Gyeom,
and when I came to this room…
I only saw this.
This is…
"The sun reached the tree"?
What does this mean?
This is a secret code.
Can you solve this?
This is probably…
Chang, Reach, Yi.
"Chang reaches Yi"?
Could it be…
When is the date of submitting
the reorganization of Dodang
to Her Majesty Queen Dowager?
It is in five days,
but I believe we should
move up the date
because of an ominous rumor.
Do you mean the rumor of
"Prediction of Yi for King"?
Did Lee In Gyeom really spread the rumor?
Based on what we found out so far,
it seems so.
I sent Nam Eun to Gyeongsanbu.
If it is Lee In Gyeom… he won't be
able to get away with it this time.
If it can happen that way…
In any case, we shouldn't drag anymore.
Before they come up with something else
we have to confirm the recommendation
of Prince Jungchang today.
I understand.
Prime Minister of the Left went to the
Queen Dowager to receive instruction.
As soon as he comes back,
we will begin our meeting.
We have the Queen Dowager's instruction.
I will deliver her instruction now.
"To the officials of Dodang,
the core of Great Goryeo"
"and the pillar of the government"
"I announce the wish of the royal court."
[Lee In Gyeom's House, Gyeongsanbu]
This is where Lee In Gyeom is exiled?
How could a criminal be exiled
to a place like this?
For someone who built
evil deeds his whole life
how could he sit here
comfortably plotting schemes
rather than atoning for his sin?
It's over now.
Come out here! Come out here!
What is this about?
We came from
the State Tribunal in Gaegyeong.
Is this where Criminal Lee In Gyeom
is exiled?
It is, but…
Step aside!
Criminal Lee In Gyeom,
come out and receive the rope!
What on earth do you mean?
What do I mean?
Didn't you hear me?
Criminal Lee In Gyeom--
He passed away 15 days ago,
so how could he receive the order?
What? What did you say?
"Fortunately, Choi Young was ousted"
"and King is handing over the throne
as he regrets his deeds."
"This must also be
from the virtue of the government."
"Therefore,
the existence of Great Goryeo"
"the livelihoods of the citizens,
and prosperity of the government…"
"will be inherited by…
Crown Prince Chang."
He has tremendous responsibilities.
What?
What are you saying right now?
We were supposed to submit our opinion
to the Queen Dowager in five days!
So why…
What on earth is this?
Prime Minister of the Left is reading
the Queen Dowager's message!
How can you be so rude?
They had already agreed on this?
What a loss! Crown Prince Chang?
Jo Min Soo, how dare you!
There was a separate instruction to hold
the coronation ceremony next month.
Did you say it was fifteen days ago?
Yes. Lord Lee In Gyeom passed away
fifteen days ago…
and we completed the funeral, too.
I received the request
five days ago in Gyeongsanbu.
He definitely said it was five days ago.
But he died fifteen days ago?
Then why didn't you notify Dodang?
We were going to…
but some scholar asked us earnestly
not to send the news for a while…
What? Crime of high treason?
Please spare me!
I just did what I was told!
The hand!
It wasn't the hand of a peddler.
Some scholar? Who is he?
I'm not sure.
He looked like a relative.
Answer me!
Did he have a burn mark on his wrist?
Yes, yes! He did!
Goodness.
The rumor says,
at the officials' meeting…
Yi Seong Gye got very upset
while discussing the next throne
and threw a water container
at General Jo…
I did what you told me to do…
but can the noble class
really be revived?
The reign of peace will flourish…
I did what you told me to do,
and they're coming to get you now.
Really? Good job!
Here! Have taffy!
Go now!
All right, let's sing again!
Eighteen sons become kings…
I request to see you in secret
at 10 o'clock tonight in Heungguk Temple.
Lee In Gyeom.
You have to make sure to deliver
this separately in secret.
Chang, Reach, Yi.
"Chang reaches Yi"?
We have to put Crown Prince on the throne
and keep Yi Seong Gye in check.
Didn't we all hear
the "Prediction of Yi for King"?
Did we fail? Did we already fail?
Yes, you failed, Brother Sambong.
- It's him.
- It's him?
The peddler didn't receive
a request from anyone.
He did it on his own.
You must've been
chasing dead Lee In Gyeom
so you had no choice but to fail.
[Ha Ryun]
By this Ha Ryun.
[Ha Ryun, Strategist who establishes
Yi Bang Won in the throne later.]

Why do you say Sambong is dangerous?
When the only thing he has is a hammer,
the world looks full of nails.
Sambong's hammer.
After a tremendous study, why don't
you share it with the world?
Because it will never work!
It will absolutely never work!
There is someone who's aiming
for Jo Joon's material.
We have to keep him safe.
To take land
from the powerful noble class
and distribute it equally
to the citizens.
Wasn't it your dream?
If you really mean it,
why don't you get on your knees?
