You think you can fool me?

Your servant, Attendant Yu, has disappeared.

Are you going to defy my order?
I said kill them!
16
00:00:58,877 --> 00:01:01,989
This is an order!
17
00:01:30,527 --> 00:01:32,196

18
00:01:34,879 --> 00:01:36,104
What is it?
19
00:01:36,224 --> 00:01:37,879
There's a war, my Lady.
20
00:01:37,999 --> 00:01:39,400
A war?
21
00:01:42,604 --> 00:01:46,914
You mean the Khitan have invaded Goryeo?
22
00:01:47,034 --> 00:01:51,182
Yes, I'm told the Khitan are
marching upon us with a massive army!
23
00:01:55,921 --> 00:02:00,548
I don't care if there is a war.
I want these women killed at once.
24
00:02:00,668 --> 00:02:02,090
No, my Lady.
25
00:02:03,499 --> 00:02:04,471
What?
26
00:02:04,591 --> 00:02:11,083
The Empress Dowager is the one who led our
last war to victory and built our current army.
27
00:02:11,203 --> 00:02:14,974
The country needs her.
28
00:02:15,094 --> 00:02:19,812
No, these women are a disgrace to Goryeo.
29
00:02:21,642 --> 00:02:25,086
She ruined the government
running around with a man,
30
00:02:25,206 --> 00:02:28,657
and her son was deposed for sodomy.
31
00:02:28,777 --> 00:02:31,192
Kill them this instant!
32

why you want me dead?

{\a6}[Empress Dowager Cheonchu]

If it was simply about revulsion for me,
why did you lock up the others?
35
00:02:43,802 --> 00:02:48,499
You locked up everyone that came with us,
36
00:02:48,619 --> 00:02:53,559
and now you're scared to death
to find out that Attendant Yu escaped.
37
00:02:53,679 --> 00:02:56,009
What are you talking about?
38
00:02:56,129 --> 00:02:58,650
You were in on the Emperor's death.
39
00:02:58,770 --> 00:03:02,383
And you want me and the
Empress dead to tie up loose ends!
40
00:03:02,503 --> 00:03:06,439
Silence! Kill the wench!
41
00:03:06,559 --> 00:03:08,995
I gave you an order!
42
00:03:22,425 --> 00:03:26,482
What are you waiting for?
Kill them this instant!
43
00:03:32,907 --> 00:03:37,133
Do not make a move until I give you an order.
44
00:03:38,992 --> 00:03:45,659
Steward Kim, are you going to
betray me over this wench?
45
00:03:46,715 --> 00:03:48,595
Forgive me, my Lady.
46
00:03:48,715 --> 00:03:51,904
But I can't let the Empress Dowager die like this.
47
00:03:52,453 --> 00:03:54,397
Kill this one along with the others.
48
00:03:58,010 --> 00:04:01,609
I said kill them!
49
00:04:07,435 --> 00:04:13,826
Listen to me, men.
I admit my mistakes.
50
00:04:16,180 --> 00:04:22,433
That is why I left my position of power
of my own accord and came here.
51
00:04:25,118 --> 00:04:30,843
If we did not have a war on our hands,
I could accept my son's undeserved death,
52
00:04:30,963 --> 00:04:34,054
and let you take my life.
53
00:04:34,450 --> 00:04:37,619
But the country is at war.
54
00:04:38,422 --> 00:04:44,274
We need every able man we have
to protect the country against the Khitan.
55
00:04:45,949 --> 00:04:48,252
So I ask you,
56
00:04:48,372 --> 00:04:55,118
do not rally to destroy me,
rally to destroy the enemy instead.
57
00:05:09,691 --> 00:05:11,360
What are you doing?
58
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:16,177
I gave you an order. Kill them!
59

Escort the lady inside.
60

No! Take your hands off of me!
61
00:05:22,911 --> 00:05:25,727
Do you think you can betray me and still survive?

or you will never see this child again.
68
00:06:44,170 --> 00:06:47,022
Whose child is he?
69
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,571
I told you. He is Sa Gamun's son.
70
00:06:56,571 --> 00:07:02,541
Stop! If you touch him,
I'll kill all of you and kill myself.
71
00:07:10,809 --> 00:07:17,856
I was trying to protect you,
but you killed one of my men and fled.
72
00:07:17,976 --> 00:07:26,132
And Goryeoans would not
send an army after Sa Gamun’s son.
73
00:07:26,537 --> 00:07:28,680
Speak the truth.
74
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:36,282
This child will die if you lie
again no matter what you do.

76
00:07:51,238 --> 00:07:54,095

And you're risking your life for this child?
82
00:08:18,417 --> 00:08:20,559
Aren't you angry about your son's death?
83
00:08:20,679 --> 00:08:26,702
Yes, I am angry!
I'm mad as hell, and that's why...
84

00:08:51,445 --> 00:08:58,922
For Sa Illa who leaped to her death
with my son to save this child...
87
00:09:01,541 --> 00:09:06,447
I must protect him so that
their deaths will not be in vain.
88
00:09:11,495 --> 00:09:20,440
And I will protect him with my life!
89
00:09:27,828 --> 00:09:30,923
Why do you want me dead?
90
00:09:32,573 --> 00:09:37,622
Didn't I say it was because you are a witch who
tried to ruin the country by bringing in bandits?
91
00:09:38,932 --> 00:09:43,051
I want to hear the truth not your flimsy lies.
92

What kind of communication did you
exchange with those who killed my son?
93

What are you talking about?
Didn't he kill himself?

this time to have your attendant escape?

00:18:20,728 --> 00:18:23,643
{\a6}[Imperial Palace - Gaegyeong]{\a6}
176
00:18:28,500 --> 00:18:31,365
{\a6}[Yu Chungjeong]{\a6}
177
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:30,489
I am Yu Chungjeong, an attendant in
service of Empress Dowager Cheonchu.
178
00:18:30,609 --> 00:18:34,139
I've come to see General Gang Jo
on extremely urgent business.
179
00:18:34,259 --> 00:18:36,421
What's the urgent business?
180
00:18:36,541 --> 00:18:40,773
Forgive me, but I'm only at liberty
to discuss the matter with General Gang.
181
00:18:40,893 --> 00:18:45,578
General Gang is not here.
He's gone to Tongju to stop the enemy invasion.
182
00:18:47,374 --> 00:18:50,965
Then what about Minister Gang Gamchan?
183
00:18:51,085 --> 00:18:53,726
He should be at the council hall.
184
00:18:54,086 --> 00:18:55,607
Wait here.
185
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:11,718
Trust no one except General Gang Jo
and Minister Gang Gamchan.
186
00:19:12,669 --> 00:19:19,967
The palace may have been overtaken by evil forces.
187
00:19:30,233 --> 00:19:31,310
Who?
188
00:19:31,430 --> 00:19:35,071
Attendant Yu Chungjeong in the
service of Empress Dowager Cheonchu.
189
00:19:35,191 --> 00:19:37,825
He is looking for Minister Gang Gamchan.
190
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,018
{\a6}[Jo Sun]{\a6}
191
00:19:39,452 --> 00:19:40,783
Seize him.
192
00:19:40,903 --> 00:19:42,473
Get the guards right now!
193
00:19:42,593 --> 00:19:44,300
What's wrong, sir?
194
00:19:44,420 --> 00:19:46,551
Just do as I say!
195
00:19:46,671 --> 00:19:47,840
Yes, sir.
196
00:19:52,002 --> 00:19:54,960
Where is he?
197
00:19:57,782 --> 00:20:00,465
He got back on his horse and left.
198
00:20:01,901 --> 00:20:03,528
What?
199
00:20:20,690 --> 00:20:22,929
General Yang Kyu routed the enemy?
200
00:20:23,049 --> 00:20:24,474
Yes, Your Majesty.
201
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,246
{\a6}[Ha Gongjin]{\a6}
202
00:20:24,594 --> 00:20:29,291
We defended the fort 30,000 against 400,000.
203
00:20:29,411 --> 00:20:32,840
I couldn't be more proud!
204
00:20:33,574 --> 00:20:38,053
Where is the enemy headed now?
205
00:20:38,173 --> 00:20:41,517
I believe they've taken a detour
around Heunghwajin to Tongju.
206
00:20:41,637 --> 00:20:45,652
{\a6}[Choi Hang (Royal archivist)]
207
00:20:41,637 --> 00:20:45,652
They will come face to
face with General Gang Jo.
208
00:20:45,772 --> 00:20:50,170
Yes, sir. And General Gang Jo
is preparing for the encounter.
209
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:57,550
{\a6}[Gang Gamchan (Vice Minister of Rites)]
210
00:20:50,909 --> 00:20:54,860
It's worth a shot, Your Majesty.
211
00:20:54,980 --> 00:21:01,877
If they left 200,000 troops at Heunghwajin,
they're now equal in size to General Gang's army.
212
00:21:02,785 --> 00:21:08,722
The fate of the empire
will be decided by this battle.
213
00:21:09,341 --> 00:21:10,608
Yes.
214
00:21:09,448 --> 00:21:15,582
{\a6}[Hyeonjong (8th Ruler of Goryeo)]{\a6}
215
00:21:11,341 --> 00:21:17,179
General Gang will come through for us.
216
00:21:20,170 --> 00:21:24,375
An attendant escaped from
Choongju and showed up here?
217
00:21:24,495 --> 00:21:29,804
Yes, Your Grace.
Men were sent after him but he slipped away.
218
00:21:30,741 --> 00:21:35,537
My guess is he has gone to Gang Jo in Tongju.
219
00:21:36,551 --> 00:21:39,843
{\a6}[Lady Yunheung]{\a6}
220
00:21:36,551 --> 00:21:40,290
This is a big problem.
221
00:21:41,331 --> 00:21:44,141
If Gang finds out that Mokjong was murdered,
222
00:21:41,513 --> 00:21:45,917
{\a6}[Kim Shimon (Vice Minister of Supreme Council)]
223
00:21:44,261 --> 00:21:47,796
he might turn back and come after us.
224
00:21:48,809 --> 00:21:52,950
{\a6}[Mun In Wui (Minister of Works)]
225
00:21:48,113 --> 00:21:50,395
He wouldn't do that.
226
00:21:50,515 --> 00:21:55,638
He's at the front to fight a war.
227
00:21:55,758 --> 00:22:00,215
He is capable of anything if he gets angry enough.
228
00:22:00,596 --> 00:22:06,938
Yi Hyunoon and Ahn Pae will
confess to everything if threatened.
229
00:22:07,058 --> 00:22:10,086
What now?
230
00:22:12,156 --> 00:22:16,212
General Jo, you'll have go to Tongju.
231
00:22:16,804 --> 00:22:22,656
Get there before this attendant does and have
Yi Hyunoon and Ahn Pae to kill him once he arrives.
232
00:22:23,632 --> 00:22:28,174
If he gets to Gang Jo, it's over for us.
233
00:22:31,565 --> 00:22:35,451
Yes, sir. I will leave at once.
234
00:22:45,597 --> 00:22:54,011
Perhaps we should've wiped out the
entire entourage when we killed the Emperor.
235
00:22:54,624 --> 00:22:58,110
No, that would've been too risky.
236
00:22:58,775 --> 00:23:03,082
Don't worry.
Empress Cheonchu will die soon enough.
237
00:23:03,202 --> 00:23:07,413
She might already be dead.
238
00:23:09,272 --> 00:23:14,690
Yes, the war and confusion will
provide the perfect opportunity.
239
00:23:16,147 --> 00:23:21,112
I'm sure Lady Choongju
will take care of her for us.
240
00:24:15,594 --> 00:24:17,876
At last the day has come!
241
00:24:19,101 --> 00:24:23,622
The enemy army is at best
200,000 in number, equal to our force.
242
00:24:24,045 --> 00:24:28,232
What's more, they suffered
substantial damage in Heunghwajin
243
00:24:28,352 --> 00:24:34,732
and their morale has no doubt eroded.
244
00:24:35,218 --> 00:24:41,012
So we will go outside the walls of the city
245
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,487
{\a6}[Gang Jo]{\a6}
246
00:24:41,132 --> 00:24:44,730
and deliver a crushing blow to the enemy!
247
00:24:50,753 --> 00:24:53,204
We will divide the army into Left Guards,
Right Guards and Center Guards
248
00:24:53,324 --> 00:25:01,538
and suppress the enemy cavalry
each equipped with 3,000 spear carts.
249
00:25:01,658 --> 00:25:14,119
using the river as their defense
to thwart the enemy advance.
250
00:25:15,914 --> 00:25:24,005
The Right Guards will take
position 5 miles west of Tongju Fort!
251
00:25:26,012 --> 00:25:30,865
I will establish a command
post at Samsuchae midway between
252
00:25:30,985 --> 00:25:37,435
Heunghwajin and Tongju and lead the Center Guards.
253
00:25:37,555 --> 00:25:41,444
Left and Right Guards will be prepared
at all times to aid each other when it comes
254
00:25:41,564 --> 00:25:44,986
to the crunch and act as
a single unit against the enemy.
255
00:25:45,106 --> 00:25:52,627
Lastly, the remaining troops
will stay behind and defend Tongju Fort.
256
00:25:52,999 --> 00:26:00,559
Fight with your all from your
given posts and crush the invaders.
257
00:26:00,679 --> 00:26:03,876
And display the authority
of Great Goryeo to the world!
258
00:26:03,996 --> 00:26:06,996
Hail Great Goryeo! Hail the Emperor!
259
00:26:07,116 --> 00:26:10,271
Hail Great Goryeo! Hail the Emperor!
260
00:27:30,441 --> 00:27:32,258
The reconnaissance report?
261
00:27:33,913 --> 00:27:37,842
{\a6}[Yelu Wuji]{\a6}
262
00:27:32,378 --> 00:27:39,230
Gang Jo and his army of 200,000 are protecting
Tongju Fort and the surrounding area.
263
00:27:39,350 --> 00:27:41,578
What? 200,000?
264
00:27:41,698 --> 00:27:43,817
Yes, Your Majesty.
265
00:27:44,895 --> 00:27:47,831
Then we're equally matched.
266
00:27:47,951 --> 00:27:52,126
Perhaps we should call back the
troops we have placed in Heunghwajin.
267
00:27:52,246 --> 00:27:56,394
The good thing is those fools
have placed the troops outside the fortress
268
00:27:56,514 --> 00:28:00,070
instead of defending the fort from within.
269
00:28:00,190 --> 00:28:01,675
Is this true?
270
00:28:01,795 --> 00:28:03,534
Yes, sir.
271
00:28:04,253 --> 00:28:06,957
Your Majesty, then it's worth a shot.
272
00:28:07,077 --> 00:28:09,386
A siege might be a challenge
with our size as it stands,
273
00:28:09,506 --> 00:28:18,560
but they don't stand a chance against
our mighty cavalry in a frontal assault.
274
00:28:19,046 --> 00:28:25,789
That's right. We have a distinct
advantage fighting in an open field.
275
00:28:26,106 --> 00:28:29,021
Give us your order, Your Majesty.
276
00:28:29,141 --> 00:28:33,310
I will take the cavalry
and wipe them out in one sweep.
277
00:28:33,615 --> 00:28:38,221
Very well. I want the Goryeoans
subjugated without fail.
278
00:28:38,341 --> 00:28:42,129
Defeat will not be tolerated again. Is that clear?
279
00:28:42,249 --> 00:28:44,827
We will not let you down, Your Majesty.
280
00:28:55,639 --> 00:28:58,744
It's the enemy! The Khitan are coming!
281
00:29:04,766 --> 00:29:07,618
Move into defense positions!
282
00:29:07,738 --> 00:29:10,512
Defense positions!
283
00:29:34,500 --> 00:29:35,942
Hustle!
284
00:29:38,355 --> 00:29:39,999
Charge!
285
00:29:40,038 --> 00:29:43,192
- Charge!
- Charge!
286
00:29:48,427 --> 00:29:52,505
Spear carts forward!
287
00:30:15,776 --> 00:30:17,255
Stop them!
288
00:30:17,909 --> 00:30:19,726
Attack!
289
00:30:39,983 --> 00:30:44,039
Reinforcements are coming! Hold them back!
290
00:30:48,436 --> 00:30:49,938
Attack!
291
00:30:51,441 --> 00:30:56,047
Fight to the death! Do not fall back!
292
00:31:44,085 --> 00:31:48,986
It's the reinforcements! Charge!
293
00:31:59,738 --> 00:32:01,111
Attack!
294
00:32:02,917 --> 00:32:03,973
General!
295
00:32:04,875 --> 00:32:07,389
Stay in formation! Do not disburse!
296
00:32:07,509 --> 00:32:09,163
Stay calm and in position!
297
00:32:09,283 --> 00:32:11,656
Do not disburse! Fight!
298
00:32:37,882 --> 00:32:40,396
Retreat. Retreat!
299
00:32:46,961 --> 00:32:48,228
Retreat!
300
00:32:50,890 --> 00:32:52,306
Retreat!
301
00:32:55,700 --> 00:32:56,792
Retreat!
302
00:33:16,886 --> 00:33:19,548
You fools!
303
00:33:19,668 --> 00:33:24,217
You were so cocksure you could win
yet you came back defeated again?!
304
00:33:25,062 --> 00:33:33,196
We had them until thousands of spear carts
came charging at us from both flanks.
305
00:33:33,316 --> 00:33:37,044
Your Majesty, give us another chance.
306
00:33:37,164 --> 00:33:40,530
We know now that frontal attack is futile,
307
00:33:40,650 --> 00:33:49,433
so we will surprise the three enemy camps
individually from the flanks and wipe them out.
308
00:33:49,553 --> 00:33:54,144
Your Majesty, the Goryeoans are
probably high on victory right now.
309
00:33:54,947 --> 00:33:59,464
If we use this chance to surprise them
with a night raid, we can defeat them.
310
00:33:59,584 --> 00:34:04,830
Silence! You have no room to talk!
311
00:34:08,001 --> 00:34:12,141
Your Majesty, please cast aside your rage.
312
00:34:13,008 --> 00:34:18,659
I'm afraid this will not be a simple fight.
313
00:34:19,187 --> 00:34:24,596
A tightly locked gate is
best opened from the locked side,
314
00:34:24,716 --> 00:34:31,446
so instead of engaging hasty attacks,
we need to devise a surefire strategy.
315
00:34:55,609 --> 00:34:57,743
State your identity.
316
00:34:57,863 --> 00:35:02,777
We are the warriors of Choongju Palace.
We've escorted the Empress Dowager.
317
00:35:05,545 --> 00:35:09,031
I've come to see the Emperor.
It's urgent, so announce me at once.
318
00:35:10,103 --> 00:35:13,335
Your Majesty, it's an urgent matter.
319
00:35:13,455 --> 00:35:14,772
What is it?
320
00:35:15,274 --> 00:35:18,568
{\a6}[Jang Myeongil]{\a6} {\a6}[Yi Bakdol]{\a6}
321
00:35:14,892 --> 00:35:19,103
The Empress Dowager has
returned from Choongju.
322
00:35:20,654 --> 00:35:22,851
The Empress Dowager?
323
00:35:30,886 --> 00:35:34,710
Your Majesty, have you fared well?
324
00:35:35,027 --> 00:35:38,788
Yes, Empress Dowager. What brings you?
325
00:35:38,908 --> 00:35:46,175
Your Majesty, I know that the country is at war,
326
00:35:46,295 --> 00:35:51,668
but I've come 120 miles to inform you
regarding a matter that must be exposed.
327
00:35:53,436 --> 00:35:55,147
What is this matter?
328
00:35:58,295 --> 00:36:00,048
Your predecessor...
329
00:36:01,915 --> 00:36:05,126
His Majesty the Emperor Mokjong is dead.
330
00:36:05,655 --> 00:36:09,457
What do you mean His Majesty is dead?
331
00:36:10,240 --> 00:36:16,255
He was murdered by men named Ahn Pae
and Yi Hyunoon on the road to Choongju.
332
00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:30,287
Murdered? Is this true?
333
00:36:31,385 --> 00:36:38,053
Yes, it is.
He was brutally murdered before my very eyes.
334
00:36:39,025 --> 00:36:43,757
Why did these men kill him? For what purpose?
335
00:36:43,877 --> 00:36:46,419
I do not know.
336
00:36:47,122 --> 00:36:50,080
I don't understand.
337
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:56,101
Why would they show up and kill
the previous emperor for no reason?
338
00:36:56,221 --> 00:36:58,758
I find this hard to believe.
339
00:36:59,624 --> 00:37:02,962
So do I.
340
00:37:03,702 --> 00:37:09,491
According to them,
the killing was ordered by General Gang Jo.
341
00:37:09,850 --> 00:37:12,047
General Gang Jo?
342
00:37:16,725 --> 00:37:25,431
Your Majesty, that is a preposterous lie.
General Gang Jo has no reason to do this!
343
00:37:25,551 --> 00:37:29,170
But Ahn Pae and Yi Hyunoon
are General Gang's men.
344
00:37:30,350 --> 00:37:33,650
{\a6}[Chae Chungsoon (Minister of Finance)]{\a6}
345
00:37:29,606 --> 00:37:33,008
Soldiers live and die for their superior's orders.
346
00:37:33,128 --> 00:37:37,064
I think it's a possibility.
347
00:37:37,184 --> 00:37:44,016
No. You all know that General
Gang has been incarcerated.
348
00:37:45,558 --> 00:37:52,818
Come to think of it, those two men
were taken away from the cell by the guards.
349
00:37:52,938 --> 00:37:56,472
That must be when they were put up to this!
350
00:37:57,350 --> 00:38:01,313
{\a6}[Choi Suk (Minister of Personnel)]
351
00:37:56,592 --> 00:37:59,325
You don't know that.
352
00:37:59,445 --> 00:38:04,445
It could have been General Gang
who ordered the killing.
353
00:38:04,565 --> 00:38:07,889
How? He was sitting in jail!
354
00:38:09,250 --> 00:38:12,535
{\a6}[Choi Wonshin (Minister of Rites)]
355
00:38:08,009 --> 00:38:15,322
Perhaps before he was arrested,
or secretly somehow while they were in jail.
356
00:38:15,442 --> 00:38:17,900
Think about this logically.
357
00:38:18,020 --> 00:38:23,688
General Gang put his life on the line
to reinstate the Empress Dowager.
358
00:38:23,808 --> 00:38:31,442
Why would he want the former emperor dead?
There is no motive!
359
00:38:31,562 --> 00:38:37,393
Motive? One might say that he does have a motive.
360
00:38:37,513 --> 00:38:46,600
General Gang might have blamed the former emperor
for all of the scandalous events that occurred.
361
00:38:47,540 --> 00:38:51,378
{\a6}[Hwangbo Yui (Supreme Council Secretary)]
362
00:38:46,720 --> 00:38:52,002
Why he even made a public display of his
disapproval for former emperor
363
00:38:52,122 --> 00:38:55,488
right here in the council hall once.
364
00:38:55,931 --> 00:39:02,974
That's not all. He has even threatened
our incumbent emperor with his spear.
365
00:39:03,312 --> 00:39:11,108
If Yi Hyunoon and Ahn Pae
named Gang Jo, it has to be true.
366
00:39:11,594 --> 00:39:13,791
That is preposterous!
367
00:39:14,361 --> 00:39:18,143
General Gang Jo is the last person
who would want the former emperor dead!
368
00:39:18,263 --> 00:39:24,190
He was a thousand times more
loyal to the emperor than any of you!
369
00:39:24,310 --> 00:39:29,792
Your Majesty, I beg you.
Please redress this atrocity!
370
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:34,735
Where are Yi Hyunoon and Ahn Pae right now?
371
00:39:35,771 --> 00:39:40,628
They are in Tongju under
General Gang Jo's command.
372
00:39:40,748 --> 00:39:44,747
Send the Imperial Guards and arrest them at once!
373
00:39:44,867 --> 00:39:46,987
How dare they murder the emperor?!
374
00:39:47,107 --> 00:39:53,594
I will expose the truth and deliver just punishment to anyone who is even remotely involved!
375
00:39:54,249 --> 00:39:56,848
Yes, Your Majesty.
376
00:40:11,897 --> 00:40:13,946
It's them.
377
00:40:15,404 --> 00:40:23,551
Those who are incriminating
General Gang, they killed the Emperor.
378
00:40:23,671 --> 00:40:29,551
That's my suspicion as well,
but there is no proof.
379
00:40:30,248 --> 00:40:36,328
The truth will be revealed once
the two men are arrested and brought back.
380
00:40:37,469 --> 00:40:43,364
That will prove to be difficult task
as long as they are in control of the court.
381
00:40:43,706 --> 00:40:46,790
There has to be some other way.
382
00:40:47,192 --> 00:40:53,065
More importantly, I can only imagine
how you must feel, Your Highness.
383
00:40:53,935 --> 00:40:58,456
It's hard to believe His Majesty is gone...
384
00:41:18,516 --> 00:41:22,340
Lady Yunheung,
what are you doing here in the palace?
385
00:41:22,460 --> 00:41:27,087
How about you, Lady Sungdeok?
What are you doing here?
386
00:41:35,740 --> 00:41:38,893
{\a6}[Court Lady Jo]
387
00:41:34,656 --> 00:41:39,283
She is here to see the Empress.
388
00:41:40,424 --> 00:41:47,274
What business do you have left in the palace?
389
00:41:47,696 --> 00:41:51,584
The Empress? What are you talking about?
390
00:41:52,070 --> 00:41:59,487
Lady Yunheung's daughter has become the Empress.
391
00:42:00,586 --> 00:42:02,783
What?
392
00:42:03,817 --> 00:42:08,444
You mean the Emperor married Princess Jeong?
393
00:42:10,746 --> 00:42:11,993
Yes.
394
00:42:12,669 --> 00:42:14,823
How could this have happened?
395
00:42:17,464 --> 00:42:19,767
Well then, I have important
business with the Emperor.
396
00:42:34,544 --> 00:42:36,445
Step aside.
397
00:42:36,825 --> 00:42:40,100
Mother, please don't do this.
398
00:42:40,220 --> 00:42:43,469
This will only take a moment, Empress.
399
00:42:44,652 --> 00:42:46,427
What brings you?
400
00:42:49,511 --> 00:42:54,518
Your Majesty, I've come to
confirm something with you.
401
00:42:55,405 --> 00:43:00,835
The Empress tells me that you have been
using separate rooms, although you are married.
402
00:43:00,955 --> 00:43:03,180
Is this true?
403
00:43:07,267 --> 00:43:12,908
This is not a matter to be discussed
in the council hall, so please leave.
404
00:43:13,028 --> 00:43:16,034
Your Majesty, state affairs are important indeed.
405
00:43:16,154 --> 00:43:21,840
But the most important duty
of an emperor is procreation.
406
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:26,308
And children have always
been rare in this Imperial House.
407
00:43:26,621 --> 00:43:30,044
Why are you keeping the Empress at a distance?
408
00:43:30,804 --> 00:43:35,885
The country is at war;
I will not listen to this now.
409
00:43:36,498 --> 00:43:44,632
The country maybe at war, but heirs
must be produced to preserve the empire.
410
00:43:45,234 --> 00:43:49,164
Isn't preservation of the empire
what this war is about as well?
411
00:43:54,670 --> 00:43:57,490
{\a6}[Empress Wonjeong]{\a6}
412
00:43:53,790 --> 00:43:57,529
Please stop, Mother. Let us leave now.
413
00:43:58,353 --> 00:44:04,881
Your Majesty, please retire to the
Emperor's bedchambers from now on.
414
00:44:05,001 --> 00:44:06,782
So that the Imperial House may thrive, and...
415
00:44:06,902 --> 00:44:07,859
Enough!
416
00:44:08,345 --> 00:44:15,021
Our soldiers are dying under the
swords of the enemy at this very moment!
417
00:44:15,250 --> 00:44:17,683
What's the use producing heirs?
418
00:44:17,803 --> 00:44:21,832
Are you telling me to play house with the Empress
when the fate of the country hangs in the balance?
419
00:44:22,159 --> 00:44:26,543
I will hear no more of this, so leave at once!
420
00:44:29,322 --> 00:44:35,132
Your Majesty, how could you speak to me this way?
421
00:44:36,061 --> 00:44:41,024
I am offering you counsel out
of concern for you and the empire.
422
00:44:41,144 --> 00:44:43,475
Counsel?
423
00:44:44,278 --> 00:44:50,198
I shall be frank with you.
I am not exactly fond of the Empress.
424
00:44:50,318 --> 00:44:53,684
I did not want this marriage to begin with.
425
00:44:53,804 --> 00:44:57,656
I was pressured and threatened
into it by the ministers.
426
00:44:57,776 --> 00:45:05,656
So do not try to control me
and leave the council hall now.

I am General Jo of the
Imperial Guards of Gaegyeong.
430

Lead me to Colonel Yi Hyunoon
and Colonel Ahn Pae at once.
431
00:45:25,001 --> 00:45:29,649
He escaped from Choongju?
432
00:45:31,191 --> 00:45:34,744
Yes, has he shown up here?
433
00:45:35,671 --> 00:45:39,504
{\a6}[Ahn Pae]{\a6}
434
00:45:35,547 --> 00:45:38,695
I don't think so.
435
00:45:38,815 --> 00:45:43,512
If he had, General Gang would have called us in.
436
00:45:43,944 --> 00:45:51,022
Good. If he shows up here,
you must kill him before he gets to Gang Jo.
437
00:45:51,142 --> 00:45:55,960
General Jo, he should've been bound and shackled
in Choongju or silenced altogether to begin with.
438

{\a6}[Yi Hyunoon]{\a6}
439
00:45:56,080 --> 00:46:02,059
How can you tell us to get rid of him now?
440
00:46:02,164 --> 00:46:06,235
How are we supposed to monitor who enters
the Center Guards' Camp from where we are?
441
00:46:06,355 --> 00:46:09,080
We can't leave this camp.
442
00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:17,068
Shut your mouth and just
kill him if you want to live.
443
00:46:18,748 --> 00:46:24,811
Your lives are over the moment
that eunuch gets to Gang Jo.

{\a6}[Empress Sunjeong]{\a6}

00:46:31,650 --> 00:46:38,124
We will know the truth once
the two men are arrested, won't we?
446
00:46:39,243 --> 00:46:42,074
It won't be that easy.
447
00:46:42,194 --> 00:46:47,820
The ministers will do everything in
their power to place blame on General Gang.
448
00:46:48,792 --> 00:46:50,886
What then?
449
00:46:54,499 --> 00:46:59,442
I should go to Tongju and see General Gang myself.
450
00:46:59,562 --> 00:47:01,651
I must find my armor.
451
00:47:01,771 --> 00:47:04,545
Won't you wait a while, Your Highness?
452
00:47:04,665 --> 00:47:09,660
Attendant Yu left ahead of us,
so General Gang may already know everything.
453
00:47:09,780 --> 00:47:14,076
Besides, the Emperor said he
would dispatch the Imperial Guards.
454
00:47:14,196 --> 00:47:16,928
But I can't just wait here.
455
00:47:17,724 --> 00:47:23,217
I want justice for the murder,
but I can't sit idly by when there is a war.
456
00:47:24,858 --> 00:47:28,428
Empress, you should stay here until I return.
457
00:47:55,413 --> 00:47:59,458
Empress Dowager, what does this mean?
458
00:48:00,810 --> 00:48:05,775
I am going to Tongju.
You men may stay here in my absence.
459
00:48:05,895 --> 00:48:10,321
No, we cannot let you walk into danger alone.
460
00:48:10,441 --> 00:48:12,286
We will accompany you.
461
00:48:12,406 --> 00:48:18,559
I'm going to the battlefield.
You may not come back alive.
462
00:48:18,679 --> 00:48:24,052
We left our master to serve you, Your Highness.
463
00:48:24,897 --> 00:48:27,855
From now on, we will live and die with you.
464

permit us to fight for the country with you.
465
00:48:33,645 --> 00:48:36,229
Permit us, Your Highness.

You were defeated and you fled?

It's all because these fools
led us through the wrong route.
469
00:49:14,088 --> 00:49:18,397
We regret that, but that was the quickest route.
470
00:49:18,517 --> 00:49:22,144
You had the torches lit like daylight.

{\a6}[Yu Jong]{\a6}
472
00:49:22,285 --> 00:49:23,559
The enemy couldn't possibly miss us.
473

How dare you try to lay blame on me?!
It's your fault for taking us that way!
474
00:49:31,228 --> 00:49:35,484
Please settle down! Now is no time to lay blame.
475
00:49:35,604 --> 00:49:39,308
This means the enemy could make
their advance through the west route as well.
476
00:49:42,730 --> 00:49:46,711
It's a distinct possibility.
We have to be prepared.
477
00:49:48,443 --> 00:49:52,753
But most of the troops have been
sent to Tongju with General Gang Jo.
478
00:49:52,873 --> 00:49:55,919

with only fraction of the troops.
481
00:50:02,151 --> 00:50:06,200
And we can defeat them too,
if we fight to the death!
482
00:50:06,876 --> 00:50:10,848
Are you saying that we were defeated
because we didn't fight hard enough?
483
00:50:12,496 --> 00:50:16,599
General, who is this arrogant fellow?
484
00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:19,747
This is Garrison Captain
of Haesujin, Gang Mincheom.
485
00:50:23,318 --> 00:50:26,698
I see. A country bumpkin
who doesn't know any better.

General Gang is right, Minister Choi.
488
00:50:32,691 --> 00:50:38,593
If the east route is open, there is a good chance
the enemy will advance directly to Seogyeong.
489
00:50:38,973 --> 00:50:45,691
So we must come together and
protect the city even if we are outmanned.
490

{\a6}[Kim Sukheung]{\a6}

Yes.
493
00:51:02,882 --> 00:51:08,172
But a formidable army is still camped
on the other side of the Yalu River.
494
00:51:08,468 --> 00:51:14,257
Be that as it may, we can't just
sit here and wait for the enemy to leave.

{\a6}[Yang Kyu]{\a6}
496
00:51:15,207 --> 00:51:22,311
We will divide the troops to protect
the fort and harass the enemy's rear.
497
00:51:22,885 --> 00:51:29,329
This is the only way we can
help General Gang Jo in Tongju.
498

What now, Colonel?
499
00:51:41,371 --> 00:51:46,047
I think we've just been
exploited and dispossessed.

Say what? Speak in plain language.
I'm frustrated as it is.
501
00:51:53,236 --> 00:51:55,504
You're so ignorant.
502
00:51:55,624 --> 00:52:00,891
I mean they made us do their
dirty work and now they're ignoring us.
503
00:52:01,011 --> 00:52:04,941
They promised us a promotion,
but they sent us to die on a battlefield.

Those bastards!
505
00:52:07,933 --> 00:52:13,623
We should just expose them!

But it's our word against theirs.
If they deny it, we're dead.
507

I've been thinking and...
509
00:52:38,823 --> 00:52:42,542
How do you feel about defecting to Liao?
510
00:52:43,767 --> 00:52:45,119
To Liao?
511
00:52:46,175 --> 00:52:52,728
We will be executed if we stay here.
So we might as well...
512
00:53:07,708 --> 00:53:08,976
What is it?
513
00:53:09,096 --> 00:53:12,784
Two Goryeoan soldiers have
come to the camp and surrendered.
514
00:53:12,904 --> 00:53:15,721
What? Is that true?
515
00:53:15,841 --> 00:53:18,425
They are right outside.
516
00:53:19,516 --> 00:53:21,249
Bring them in.
517
00:53:21,946 --> 00:53:23,214
Send them in.
518
00:53:28,369 --> 00:53:31,115
This is the Emperor;
get on your knees.
519
00:53:34,513 --> 00:53:42,254
Your Majesty, I am Yi Hyunoon,
a colonel in General Gang Jo's army.
520
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:46,438
I am Colonel Ahn Pae.
521
00:53:47,409 --> 00:53:53,915
So you've come to surrender. Is this true?
522
00:53:55,310 --> 00:53:56,725
Yes, Your Majesty.
523
00:53:57,338 --> 00:53:59,366
And what is your reason?
524
00:54:02,344 --> 00:54:03,949
Well... um...
525
00:54:04,647 --> 00:54:08,449
Not only is serving Gang Jo intolerably difficult,
526
00:54:08,745 --> 00:54:15,907
but there is little doubt in our mind
that this war will end in Great Liao's victory.
527
00:54:16,245 --> 00:54:19,736
So we've decided to become servants of Great Liao.
528
00:54:19,856 --> 00:54:24,954
If you accept us, we will vow
loyalty to Your Majesty and Great Liao.
529
00:54:25,651 --> 00:54:30,677
You expect us to trust traitors
who betrayed their own country?
530
00:54:31,248 --> 00:54:36,128
Wait, you must be Gang Jo's spies.
531
00:54:36,248 --> 00:54:41,106
No, I swear to you we're not!
532
00:54:42,500 --> 00:54:47,591
Wait, that's the bastard that
played with my beard and insulted me!
533
00:54:48,352 --> 00:54:54,293
Your Majesty, low rankers such
as these men will not be of any use to us.
534
00:54:54,413 --> 00:54:59,046
They will only waste our food,
so I urge you to slay them at once.
535
00:54:59,166 --> 00:55:02,431
No, please!
536
00:55:02,748 --> 00:55:10,396
We're here because we really want to serve Liao.
Please do not kill us!
537
00:55:11,690 --> 00:55:14,373
Your Majesty, please believe us.
538
00:55:14,493 --> 00:55:21,169
If you accept us,
we will tell you how you can crush Gang Jo.
539
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,377
You will?
540
00:55:26,715 --> 00:55:28,510
Yes, Your Majesty.
541
00:56:01,561 --> 00:56:02,427
Hey!
542
00:56:04,625 --> 00:56:07,033
Where the heck have you been?
543
00:56:08,180 --> 00:56:10,877
{\a6}[Yu Bang]{\a6}
544
00:56:07,780 --> 00:56:11,435
The enemy could be plotting a night raid.
I told you to keep a tight watch!
545
00:56:11,555 --> 00:56:17,478
It's trouble, General Yu!
The Center Guards are under enemy attack!
546
00:56:18,023 --> 00:56:21,276
What? I didn't receive such report.
547
00:56:21,396 --> 00:56:25,537
I was just there!
It's a direct order from General Gang.
548
00:56:25,657 --> 00:56:29,783
We must take reinforcements
and help them right now!
549
00:56:30,586 --> 00:56:31,706
Are you sure about this?
550
00:56:31,826 --> 00:56:37,058
Yes! Why would I lie about something like this?
551
00:56:37,178 --> 00:56:41,537
Colonel Ahn has gone to the
Right Guards' Camp to request aid as well.
552
00:56:41,657 --> 00:56:43,037
Colonel Ahn?
553
00:56:43,157 --> 00:56:45,762
Yes, we must hurry!
554
00:56:45,882 --> 00:56:47,368
Hurry, sir!
555
00:56:51,149 --> 00:56:54,741
{\a6}[Center Guards' Camp- Tongju]{\a6}
556
00:56:57,927 --> 00:56:58,856
State your identity.
557
00:56:58,976 --> 00:57:01,032
I am Attendant Yu Chungjeong from Choongju.
558
00:57:01,152 --> 00:57:05,110
I must see General Gang Jo on an urgent matter.
559
00:57:05,230 --> 00:57:06,286
What's the urgent matter?
560
00:57:06,406 --> 00:57:10,089
I will tell him directly.
561
00:57:10,491 --> 00:57:13,237
I'm afraid I can't let anyone enter the camp.
562
00:57:13,554 --> 00:57:16,196
But I must see him. It's urgent!
563
00:57:16,316 --> 00:57:18,076
I said no.
564
00:57:18,435 --> 00:57:23,364
Please just tell General Gang
that Empress Dowager's attendant is here.
565
00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:24,815
Then he will know.
566
00:57:25,230 --> 00:57:26,705
Please!
567
00:57:29,012 --> 00:57:34,759
What? His Majesty was murdered?
568
00:57:36,295 --> 00:57:37,732
Yes, General.
569
00:57:38,365 --> 00:57:44,788
Not only that, they told the Empress
Dowager that you ordered the killing.
570
00:57:45,712 --> 00:57:49,304
What? How dare they?!
571
00:57:50,445 --> 00:57:51,945
Lieutenant!
572
00:57:54,269 --> 00:57:55,663
Yes, sir.
573
00:57:56,191 --> 00:58:01,752
Go to the Left Guards Camp right now
and bring back Yi Hyunoon and Ahn Pae.
574
00:58:02,407 --> 00:58:03,484
Pardon, sir?
575
00:58:04,044 --> 00:58:06,008
Grab both their legs and bring them here!
576
00:58:07,530 --> 00:58:09,156
Yes, sir.
577
00:58:09,276 --> 00:58:10,973
General!
578
00:58:11,924 --> 00:58:15,632
General Yu Bang of the Left Guards is here, sir.
579
00:58:16,773 --> 00:58:18,104
General Yu?
580
00:58:20,491 --> 00:58:22,139
General!
581
00:58:24,821 --> 00:58:29,511
General, thank goodness you're all right.
582
00:58:29,631 --> 00:58:32,997
What brings you here?
Who is commanding your camp?
583
00:58:33,117 --> 00:58:38,790
We heard you were under attack and
in grave danger, so we came to help.
584
00:58:39,085 --> 00:58:41,790
Have the Khitan already been routed?
585
00:58:42,233 --> 00:58:46,499
The Khitan? Who told you this?
586
00:58:46,619 --> 00:58:49,879
Colonel Yi Hyunoon said it was extremely urgent...
587
00:58:50,337 --> 00:58:52,767
What? Yi Hyunoon?
588
00:58:53,147 --> 00:58:58,115
It's the Khitan! They're charging at us!
589
00:58:58,537 --> 00:59:02,741
Put the spear carts in formation
at once and take your positions!
590
00:59:03,967 --> 00:59:08,150
Spear carts! Move into defensive position!
591
00:59:22,341 --> 00:59:24,602
Soldiers! What happened?
592
00:59:26,006 --> 00:59:29,661
The Khitan raided us...
593
00:59:31,098 --> 00:59:35,069
The Left Guards have been wiped out...
594
00:59:36,396 --> 00:59:39,840
Yi Hyunoon and Ahn Pae...
595
00:59:45,424 --> 00:59:47,241
General!
596
00:59:50,643 --> 00:59:54,424
More Khitan are approaching
us from the Left Guards' Camp, sir!
597
00:59:55,143 --> 00:59:56,199
What?
598
00:59:59,269 --> 01:00:01,910
I think I've been tricked.
599
01:00:02,030 --> 01:00:05,037
It's a flank-and-frontal attack.
600
01:00:05,368 --> 01:00:09,023
Quickly divide the troops
and defend both sides at once.
601
01:00:09,143 --> 01:00:11,962
And request aid from the Right Guards immediately.
602
01:00:12,082 --> 01:00:13,081
Go!
603
01:00:13,201 --> 01:00:14,391
Yes, sir!
604
01:00:15,638 --> 01:00:17,835
