I just got a report that a war has broken out.
Many of our people were taken as prisoners.
You must step up and save...
the nation and the people.
A war?
Do you think I do not know...
you set that trap?
You had better walk into that trap.
There is nothing you can do.
Yoon Yi Suh.
That girl...
is with me.
Who is this Yoon Yi Suh?
I do not know that name.
I thought you had retrieved all of your memories,
but I guess I was wrong.
If that is the case, there is nothing for us to talk about.
Do you have evidence?
Show me proof that you have the girl.
Do not try to fool me...
with dirty schemes anymore.
Should I chop off her hand and bring it to you?
Maybe then you will recognize her.
Vice-Premier!
His Majesty called for an urgent cabinet meeting,
so please excuse me.
Where is she?
Tell me where she is...
or I will order for your neck...
to be slit.
I already gave orders...
to kill the girl and toss her body...
at the hill if anything happens to me.
Wild animals will pick at her flesh and bone,
and you will not be able to even retrieve a body.
If you wish to save her life,
you must forever bury what you found in your journal...
as well as the secret...
that you finally learned of.
(Final episode)
The Jurchens that were attacked by Ming headed south...
and brutally murdered many of our people.
They are also holding prisoners in exchange for a ransom.
According to Governor Min of Pyongan Province,
the head of the Jurchens stated that...
unless His Majesty delivers the ransom himself,
he will kill a hostage every two hours.
Ming is the one who attacked the Jurchens,
so why are they blackmailing us instead?
They are claiming that Ming's arrows are from Joseon.
It is their understanding that Joseon...
instigated Ming Dynasty to attack.
Then we must clear all misunderstandings.
Who will go onto the battlefield and meet with the Jurchens?
In my opinion,
the best man for this particular job would be Vice-Premier.
It is not so hard for me to go to the battlefield,
but they will not listen to me.
I am too humble...
to stand in for the authority of the royal family.
If things go wrong,
subjects will resent you.
Are you saying His Majesty has to go out in the war himself?
The situation does not look so well.
It is said...
the Jurchens have cut off our people's throats...
and hung them on a marketplace.
People are worried and frightened.
Still, His Majesty cannot leave the capital...
and head to the battlefield.
Then why do you not...
send the Crown Prince to deal with it?
He is the only one...
who can face them on behalf of Your Majesty.
That cannot be done.
What is the meaning of being a crown prince?
His original duty is to resolve a crisis...
on behalf of a king.
I will take good care of His Highness,
so please reconsider.
- Please reconsider. - Please reconsider.
She left this letter and went away from the house at dawn.
It is about how she is thankful for everything.
Officer Park, Gu Dol and Kkeut Nyeo are looking everywhere for her,
but they have not found her yet.
Please...
find Hong Shim, Your Highness.
Do not worry.
I will find her no matter what.
Your Highness, you must return to the palace quickly.
The result of the urgent cabinet meeting does not seem good.
I will look for Hong Shim,
so you should return to the palace quickly.
- What? - I shall go to the battleground.
I will not permit it.
A lot of people including Vice-Premier Kim have gone there,
so they will resolve the situation somehow.
Vice-Premier Kim must have instigated this war.
He will supply weapons to Ming...
which will bring him a lot of benefits.
He will not wish this war to end soon either.
He does not care about subjects' lives.
Thus, I must head there as soon as possible.
That is more of the reason why I cannot let you go.
The battlefield is dangerous...
because Vice-Premier Kim is there.
I told you to punish him,
but are you going to fall for his scheme instead?
I still cannot understand...
why he tried to kill you...
and why you are just watching him.
Please tell me what it is about.
I cannot tell you why.
You still cannot trust me...
just because I have taken this throne...
with the help of the Vice-Premier?
If I open the box of secret,
a lot of people will get hurt.
The Vice-Premier and I,
the two of us have to resolve this alone.
He must be waiting for you...
with a trap ready just like the last time.
Like he did in Mount Chunwoo,
he might try to murder you again.
Do you still want to go despite all that?
I am...
planning to do as he wants.
I shall be waiting for you in the battlefield...
with the wench whom you have in your heart.
Get my horse ready.
You cannot go to the battlefield.
Move aside.
You will end up getting killed if you go now.
I am going to die.
I do not have much time.
If I bring soldiers there,
they might be mistaken that I am joining the war,
so I must go there alone.
Wait until I send you a message.
Did I not tell you to wait for my message?
You looked at me with such mellow eyes when you said that,
so I thought you wanted me to follow you alone.
I never looked at you with mellow eyes.
What are you waiting for? Let us get it started.
I have postponed the negotiation with the Jurchens for four days...
and told our side that it would take place tomorrow.
I will have your private soldiers wait in ambush...
at the fortress at dawn.
Once the Crown Prince enters, they will get rid of him.
I also have prepared for evidence...
to frame the Jurchens for the murder.
You should head to the Ming's military camp.
Do I not have to protect you by your side?
Your important duty right now...
is to keep the promise with Ming.
The matter with the Crown Prince is my personal problem.
I have started a relationship with him,
so it is my job to end that relationship as well.
I shall see him off...
myself...
this time.
I did not expect you to come here yourself.
Please come inside.
Check this out.
The Jurchens are not mistaken.
This arrow is...
from Joseon Dynasty.
The Vice-Premier Kim must have made weapons...
and supplied them to Ming in the end.
Does it mean the Vice-Premier has instigated this war?
Where is he?
To acquire 300,000 yang which the Jurchens demanded,
he went to the Ming's military camp.
He must not have gone there to talk about the ransom.
How many of the subjects were captured?
Around 300.
This is the letter from the Jurchens which the Vice-Premier delivered.
It says we should...
go to their fortress by tomorrow noon for the negotiation.
The problem is...
It must be on the condition that I must go there alone.
That is correct.
Are you agonizing...
because of the people or a woman?
Do you prefer the snow or raining petals?
What...
It is a roundabout way of saying that was a stupid question.
Can you joke at a time like this?
The Vice-Premier's letter will be a fake.
There is no evidence that people are kept captive...
in the fortress or that the Vice-Premier has Hong Shim.
It would be foolhardy to go in there alone.
What would you do?
Would you not go if there were no evidence?
I would.
But I am not the Crown Prince.
I have a bad feeling about this. Do not go.
Your Highness, go inside.
No. This is an anonymous tip.
I will go to the fortress.
What does the note say?
It says...
the Vice-Premier is waiting for me there.
I will wait outside.
Please return safely.
What a pity.
The girl you are looking for is not here.
Where is she?
You will not get to see her.
Why is that?
Because you will die before then.
Just to kill me...
you called this many assassins?
It looks like I do not stand a chance.
What a pity.
I have no intention of falling the same trap twice.
Drop your swords.
If you do not obey,
an arrow will pierce your neck.
Tie up Vice-Premier Kim Cha Eon and take him to the State Tribunal.
You murdered me, the Crown Prince.
You started a war and put the people in danger.
I will punish you severely for those charges.
Do not shoot.
Stop.
You will no longer be able to hold a sword with that arm.
Tie him up.
Shoot!
I never intended to...
go on living...
the miserable life...
you want me to live.
It is all over now.
Why...
did you...
just let this happen?
Why...
did you show up now?
Why?
Why? Why?
I did not follow him, so I did not know...
what he was going to do.
He asked me to...
protect his younger sister in his place.
Seok Ha...
No...
Moo Yeon had already prepared a house.
I will escort you there.
No.
To Kim Cha Eon is where I am going.
Once and for all,
I will end it with him.
Yeon Hong Shim will be somewhere nearby.
Spread out and find her.
Did the Vice-Premier drag her here with him?
No.
She has been helping me all along.
The anonymous tip I received...
was from her.
My dad was dragged away...
and my mom was killed.
Do not keep your tears back.
You can cry if you want to.
Holding it in will only bring more pain.
That is it. Just cry.
You may cry as long as you want.
Your father will come back home safely.
The Crown Prince is a brave man...
who is also quite smart,
and he is here in this village.
So let us wait a little longer.
It is dangerous for you to be alone,
so head to the magistrate's office.
You will stay strong and wait for your father.
All right?
Yes, thank you.
I was worried...
that Vice-Premier Kim might have harmed you somehow.
Why did you come all the way here to this dangerous place?
It is not...
because of you.
I heard about your brother.
I am sorry.
Why would you apologize?
You did not do anything wrong.
I wanted him to live.
I wanted him to escape and live his life.
Why?
Is it because...
he is my brother?
You do not need to keep living as Yeon Hong Shim now.
The tip you gave me was very helpful.
I owe you my life,
so I will credit you with...
the reinstatement of your social class.
Live as Yoon Yi Suh again.
Also,
you may go back to how you were before our marriage.
Because the Crown Princess...
is not pregnant with His Highness' baby.
He must not be able to remember it...
since he has lost his memory.
Why did you come back to Hanyang?
Do not tell me...
that you came here to kill His Highness...
in case he would find back his memory.
That is not the reason.
Then why?
What is it?
I came back to protect the woman I love and her child.
My goodness.
Are you referring to...
She is not Crown Princess to me.
She is only a young lady by the name of So Hye.
I am sorry,
Yi Suh.
I can only live as Moo Yeon now.
I must protect the two.
Please do not forgive me.
Do not do anything for me either.
I did wrong by you as well.
Do you dare to defy my order?
The people who brought you misery...
might be me and my brother.
On the day of the dethronement,
I lost my mother...
as well as the girl I loved.
Because of me, you also lost your father.
From that day on, I have never been at ease.
It is all in the past now.
Please forget me and everything that has happened.
I wish for your safe return to the palace.
Is that all you wish to say to me?
Can you not say...
that you also love me too?
Just say you would like to...
be with me too.
That is all I wish to hear from you.
I cannot...
give you the answer you desire.
We received an urgent message from Pyongan Province.
The Vice-Premier passed away and...
What about the Crown Prince?
He is alive and uninjured.
What a relief.
Here is the letter from the Crown Prince himself.
I finally figured out the best way to utilize...
the blank paper that has your seal.
I am afraid that...
I must take...
what I truly want.
Vice-Premier Kim Cha Eon...
will pay for his sins only with his life.
His children...
will not be punished for his sins.
"This is the King's command"?
Is Vice-Premier Kim...
trying to drag me down even after death?
Does he think I would keep his promise when he is already dead?
Do not think of refusing to eat or drink.
Why are you keeping me alive?
Yoon Yi Suh, whom I loved all my life,
is the younger sister of Yoon Seok Ha, whom you loved.
It is not that I cannot kill you.
I cannot kill the baby in your womb.
I will decide on what to do about you after I come back from the war.
So live.
Survive.
Your Highness.
I am sorry for telling you this,
but the Vice-Premier has passed away.
He was killed for high treason of trying to murder the Crown Prince.
Then I might not...
be able to survive either.
Stand up. You should not be here right now.
What are you trying to do?
We are on our way to see Mother upon her urgent request.
Crown Princess.
Yes, Your Majesty.
I know everything about your sin.
How dare you attempt to run away after committing such a hideous sin?
Do you wish to survive even after doing something so vicious?
Here is what happened to the Crown Prince.
He charged towards the enemy lines alone...
and cut off thousands of...
the enemy forces' heads like this.
Even when they begged him to save them, he never showed mercy...
and cut off all their throats.
Gosh.
He was the best swordsman in Joseon after all.
You just bluff too much.
How could it be even possible to fight thousands of people alone?
That does not make sense.
I am telling you this story because it makes sense.
Do not cut the flow. Starting from here is the real good part.
The Crown Prince... Why would you really...
The Crown Prince saved all the subjects who were taken hostage.
When he returned to the palace, the Crown Princess...
The Crown Princess...
She was already dead.
She committed suicide.
Goodness.
She was pregnant, so why did she?
She was not pregnant with the Crown Prince's baby.
How could she have cheated on a cool husband like Won Deuk?
It is natural she committed suicide.
I would not forgive her either if I were him.
Am I the only one who is feeling uncomfortable right now?
Stop talking badly about the Crown Princess.
That is what I want to tell you. Stop talking to me like that.
How dare you criticize your watchman as a traitor?
Are you dying to skip dinner today?
You feed me with a tiny amount of food,
but you are talking so big about it.
What, a tiny amount? How dare you run your mouth like that?
Plus, you call this a tiny amount?
Gosh, stop this already.
Why did you volunteer to be a watchman in the first place?
Because it pays me money.
I never knew he would come to our house.
You are pregnant, so do not be bothered by it.
Leave now, all of you. I feel too heavy to do anything.
I was going to leave you anyway.
Being the head merchant keeps me so busy.
I am going to Ming soon, so tell me if you need anything.
I will get them for you.
Ma Chil, wearing those silk clothes does not make you a noble man.
Stop with that annoying way of talking.
Look.
When you go to Ming, deliver my news to Eunuch Noh.
Tell him to save me for certain.
You are already dead, so save whom?
You crossed the line.
Let me ask you one more thing.
What happened to the woman?
The Crown Prince's woman.
Do not tell me they got married or something.
Marriage, my foot.
Did you wait long?
It is okay.
It is always heart-fluttering to wait for a beautiful woman.
I received your letter,
but I could not understand what it meant.
In short,
we are growing old together, so why not we have some fun?
How dare you try to pull such a thing to me?
Stay still there.
What are you waiting for? Come here already.
I told you to wait, so why did you have to make a move first?
What if you get hurt by doing so?
- I did not get hurt. - It hurts.
- Who are you? - Hurry.
- Arrest him. - Who are you people?
- Yes, master. - Do you know who I am?
- Come here. - Do you know who I am?
My family is the wealthiest in this town.
Let go of me!
Hey!
Thanks to you,
we caught a serial rapist.
You became a magistrate long ago...
but you still talk like an officer.
That is rich coming from you.
You were reinstated and you are Yoon Yi Suh now.
What kind of a noble maiden...
You are too old to be a maiden...
and I saw things,
but anyway, why did you take on a vicious criminal?
Can you not stop doing such things?
Do nobles get food from the sky without having to work?
Give me 10 yang.
What, 10 yang? I am astounded.
You are under arrest.
Dirty, dangerous and difficult jobs cost more.
You take the credit...
for catching a serial rapist. Will you not pay me?
I will.
Hang on, my pouch... I thought...
A tiger.
Why you... Master!
(Solution Agency)
A nice cold bowl of baesuk would be perfect.
Wherever we go,
we can make another flowery wall.
I will stay with you forever. Do not worry.
I will not leave you alone.
I am your husband.
Shall we make a vow?
This is my vow.
What did you do that got you so dazed?
What do you think? I made some money.
You got reinstated.
Why can you not just live as a noble woman?
Why do all this?
Should I leave you then?
I do not want to live alone...
and be called "young lady."
I will just stay here.
With you, happily ever after.
That is not the reason you cannot leave this house.
Yes. I cannot leave because of Won Deuk. Okay?
Governor, please let me go.
Let me go, fools, Governor.
Put him in a cell.
I will write a report to the Crown Prince.
- Go. - Yes, Master.
Master, release me.
- Master. - Hey, you.
Bring me paper, a brush and some ink.
Are your ears stuffed up? I need a brush, paper and ink.
Okay.
I swear I will get reinstated one day...
and make you pay for this.
I swear I will get reinstated one day...
Darn you.
You underestimated the Crown Prince. Go.
Okay.
This report is from Royal Inspector Heo Man Shik.
They apprehended the thieves that...
ransacked Hamgyong Province.
The villagers there must have suffered.
Reduce their taxes by half.
Heo Man Shik...
did many good deeds while serving undercover.
I will give him another title and keep him close.
I will have him come to the palace as soon as possible.
Your Highness.
It has been six months already since...
you have been ruling.
Caring for the people...
and running the government is important,
but you are still not married.
Would that be a good example for the people to follow?
It has not rained at all for three months because...
Not that again.
I had all the men and women marry last year,
but it did not rain.
Your Highness.
Since you're refusing to marry, within the palace walls,
a disgraceful rumor is spreading.
- A rumor? - It is...
too embarrassing to repeat, so...
Then do not repeat it.
I shall end today's council.
Oh, right.
If you are that worried about the drought,
find a way to alleviate it.
Until this time tomorrow.
The chief censor has a point.
Do you not feel lonely on those long nights?
The loneliness is manageable.
I have you with me.
I am always lonely despite being next to you.
A bee busy with work has no time to be sad.
I will give you more work to do.
I respectfully decline.
I am not a bee.
Oh dear, I apologize.
I tripped on a rock.
I am sorry to report...
the Seonggyungwan meeting has been canceled.
Why is that?
You need a new robe.
I do not.
This robe will do just fine.
I feel very uncomfortable if you say that.
I almost died and came back because of you.
Must you do this to me?
Very well.
I will do as you wish. Will that suffice?
Yes, Your Highness. Shall we go?
This way.
Your voice is just fine. You sound fine.
You have such beautiful hands.
Did the king send you?
No. I was sent by the Office of Royal Attire.
I smell the highest quality musk.
Did the Office of Royal Attire...
want you to seduce me?
You are not allowed to touch me again.
Your Highness. Your Highness.
The noble ladies are not enough,
so you are sending maids now?
Why? Did you not like her?
I selected her very carefully.
Father.
I put dozens of girls in front of you.
All the noble families...
are sending their daughters' details...
and I am both embarrassed and ashamed.
Are you going to let our family line die out?
I told you that I already love someone.
You are perfectly physically able.
Why must you just love someone?
Wait. Were you...
rejected?
Were you really?
What woman dared to reject my son?
To tell you the conclusion,
I was rejected.
But it was not solely because of me.
So please bear with me.
I am waiting for her as well.
My goodness...
- Your Majesty! - Did I not tell you...
to look after my son?
Your job as his adviser extends beyond court affairs.
I apologize, Your Majesty.
I do have a plan but...
I plan...
to hand over the throne to my son.
Why would you even say such a thing?
You are more than healthy to lead this kingdom,
so why would I take the throne?
Please revoke your command.
I hear that my illness...
is quite severe.
- Your Majesty. - Your Majesty.
I will head to Mount Myohyang and recuperate for a few months.
Before I do,
I must see to it that you get married.
- Father! - Members of the court, listen.
Until the end of next month,
every single man and woman shall marry.
Those who do not comply,
even those who are of noble or royal blood,
will be sentenced to 100 times of flogging.
Not even a single being will be allowed an exception.
What?
He should stay strong and not falter to a petty illness.
How weak of him.
Does he really believe it will push the Crown Prince to marry?
All day and every day, he enjoys Jung Je Yoon's company...
The more I think of it,
I believe it is true that the Crown Prince likes men.
Is that not the biggest reason for him to step down?
It seems like Seowon still has a chance at the throne.
Who knew that your brother would come in handy?
Tell him to seduce the Crown Prince and get us decisive evidence.
My Queen,
I may not be fond of my stepbrother,
but he does not like men.
Who cares about his actual sexual orientation?
You are the one who told me that scheming is politics itself.
His Majesty shall now enter.
Until when will you stop plotting against the Crown Prince?
It is time to let go.
Your Majesty, you are mistaken.
I am worried about the Crown Princess' marriage.
This again?
From here on out, you will focus more on me.
I will step down from the throne...
and enjoy my life with you now.
Your Majesty...
Can you not take a hint?
You should have left already.
My apologies, Your Majesty.
My Queen.
Your Majesty.
Please come here.
What is the illness you are suffering from?
Is there nothing the royal physician can do?
For years, I have been glued to this throne.
My buttocks are in a viscous festered state...
and there have been no signs of improvement.
Is this a joke?
You forced me into a marriage based on such a frivolous reason.
Yul.
I have always been burdened by the weight of this crown.
I wanted to be strong as a boulder, but I swayed like reed.
I hate myself for it.
Vice-Premier Kim may have been evil, but I envied him from time to time.
I was jealous of his firm will.
You also have that quality.
I was always in the debt of my officials...
which is why I could never take a firm stand.
You are different though. Nothing holds you back,
and you do not care of being in power.
That is why you have authority and dignity.
Father...
All my life, I have been walking on eggshells.
That is how I was with my brother.
That is how I was with the ministers as king.
Also, I have been constantly worrying about...
how I would be written in the chronicles after death.
What kind of a king will people remember me as?
That is all I worried about.
Yul.
You should...
live the life of a king that you wish to be remembered as.
How you feel from within is more important...
than what others think of you.
What were you thinking of all night?
The librarian should be here by now.
He asked me to deliver this letter and took off.
Ever since you temporarily took over for your father,
I have been working nonstop.
I will only be gone for three days.
It is to comply with the order...
His Majesty issued regarding marriage,
so please do not be angry with me.
I am off to marry a woman in Songjoo Village.
They say that the early bird catches the worm.
I did not realize you could be this slow.
It will be an unrequited love forever,
and you will end up losing her to another man.
It might not be too bad to go down in history...
as the only king who never got married.
If you do that though,
you will have lived the same life as me.
How dare you!
Nothing about what I said is wrong.
Prepare my clothes immediately.
A long time ago, it once rained for a long time.
The whole land flooded and even the dandelions were about to drown.
A small dandelion prayed to the sky.
To be spared.
Then suddenly the wind blew.
The dandelion seeds took flight...
and landed on a sunny hill.
A short while later,
they sprouted and bloomed.
If we ride the wind,
we will be able to bloom somewhere else.
I named my boy Seok Ha.
I know it goes against all customs,
but I wanted to remember the name...
that will otherwise be forgotten.
I made it myself. What do you think?
It is very pretty.
We are grateful for this and you dreaming of the baby.
I am glad it is a daughter.
It would be horrible if it was a son who took after me.
Girls would not let him be if that was the case.
They would let him be for sure.
Like father, like son.
He would be an old bachelor.
By the way, what is this?
It is said carp is good for pregnant women, so I have caught one.
Ta-da.
Do you still have serious morning sickness?
There are more than just a few problems...
now that she is pregnant at an old age.
She cannot eat well as is,
so why did you have to bring something fishy?
Lean on me.
Goodness.
It took me a lot of effort to catch this, you know that?
Forget it if you do not want it. I will just have it myself.
Hey, look.
Leave it there because I will have it.
Hold on a second. Where is a club?
Long time no see.
What brings you here?
I am here to deliver the royal command.
Spinsters and bachelors have got to get married.
Again?
Why can we not do as we please with our marriage?
I do not think it is a bad idea though.
Thanks to the order, I have made up my mind to get married too.
Stop being single, and let us get married.
Master Jung.
What a good timing. You two should go to the magistrate's office.
What?
We took care of all the spinsters and bachelors last year,
but we have some again this year.
The 4 of you have just turned 20 this year,
but the two of you...
Let me see.
29 and 31?
How amazing.
You guys must be the oldest singles in the country.
Stop with the introduction.
Let us proceed.
Thank goodness, the numbers are even this year.
Thank goodness, my foot.
It is not like we are having a drought this year.
Why are they forcing us to get married this year?
This is not my orders.
It is because of the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince does not have a wife...
which should never happen.
To marry him off,
the King is on his toes...
looking for a right candidate,
so you ought to obey.
Partner up with one another, all right?
Am I the only one who is uncomfortable right now?
Who is late?
I am very uncomfortable...
with this ridiculous match-up.
What brings you all the way here?
I was worried subjects might be...
forced to get married because of the royal order,
so I came out on an inspection.
Are you telling them not to get married?
Of course not.
They must not disobey the king's order.
What do you want me to do then?
I am also a single bachelor.
Thus, I intend to participate in this match-up.
There are 3 women and 4 men,
so it cannot be helped.
The men should close their eyes.
And the women should stand in front of whom they like.
All right, guys. Close your eyes.
Can we really choose him?
He is the most handsome.
Quiet down.
All right then. Start moving.
All right.
Open your eyes.
All right.
No one could have dared stand in front of me.
They must not have had the courage to do so.
I shall give you one more chance, so...
I shall give you one more chance.
You do have a discerning eye.
I will do my best...
so you do not regret choosing me over His Highness.
Master.
Can you listen to what I have to say first?
It was one spring night.
I felt so gloomy that day.
I was resentful for being born as the child of a concubine.
I resented my late mother.
I hated myself for resenting my mother.
Then I met someone.
I did not believe in falling in love at first sight,
but I thought it was actually possible...
after I experienced it myself.
I want to tell the woman...
that I like her.
You will not be able...
to win that woman's heart.
Love is not about winning or receiving.
It is about giving.
Stay still.
You have to stay still.
Keep staying still.
I feel like I am having a high fever.
I think I am having a fever on my neck.
This is enough.
You care nothing about loyalty when it comes to women, is that right?
You know how much I love that woman.
I am doing this because I know.
- What? - I will really propose to her...
if you fail to win her heart this time again.
I came to make a wish too.
That the woman I love...
will stay by my side forever.
If I were to stay with you,
you would become unhappy.
My past and my existence...
will cause a problem for you forever.
Without you,
I will be more unhappy.
If we cannot smile at each other,
then that is not true love.
My brother and I both hurt you in the past.
How could I forget that?
- I do not mind. - One day...
someone will find out.
They will use that to attack you.
If I must give up on love to secure a position,
I will not have it.
That is not what I want.
Rather than be the husband to one woman,
you should choose to be a wise king.
It cannot be helped.
I will return to the palace as you wish.
But before I do, I would like you to find something for me.
As I rushed to come and see you, I lost a bundle of books.
I heard you still run the Solution Agency.
The books are wrapped in red silk. They should not be hard to find.
I will pay you handsomely. Find them soon.
Oh dear.
Why is Yang Choon not here for this important meeting?
The thing is,
she had not been feeling well for a couple of weeks.
I thought she had caught a cold.
But she is pregnant.
- Oh dear. - What?
She kept on saying she wanted gukbap,
so I sent her off.
Should you be getting a woman pregnant when...
your daughter is single and growing old?
That is why we must succeed this time.
Yes, you are right. Seon Do, is everything ready?
Yes, they are ready.
Let me check.
- Here. - Let me see.
You idiot. How many times must I say cherry blossom petals have a groove.
Make them again.
Okay.
It is like reading the scripture to a beast.
What were we talking about?
I swear I will get reinstated one day...
and make you pay for this.
I can hear you.
Okay.
July 4, 1450.
I see you wherever I go.
I know it is an illusion. My heart feels heavy.
July 5, 1450.
I immensely regret not holding you back that day.
The pain fills me and I cannot sleep.
December 11, 1450. It snowed today.
I see the snow fall and think of you.
You asked me then...
if I like the snow or raining flower petals.
However many times you ask, my answer is you.
Do you remember? Today is the day we married.
How dare you? I said you cannot touch me.
They say there are two paths in life.
One is to believe that nothing is a miracle.
The other is to believe that everything is a miracle.
I look back at the 100 days I spent as your husband.
Now I know that every moment...
was a miracle.
Where are you going?
Is the Crown Prince at the magistrate's office?
No, he left.
He had urgent business at the palace.
Hong Shim.
I heard that the Crown Prince had left.
The Crown Prince has left but Won Deuk is still here.
However hard I look, you do not look like Won Deuk.
Do not just look. Look carefully.
Now.
It is not spring. Why are there flower petals in the air?
I see you found the books.
No one is allowed to read them. Did you take a peek?
Yes. I did.
I would like you to stop writing...
such heartbreaking stories.
Do not worry. I already thought of what to write this evening.
I think it will go like this.
"I proposed to the woman I yearned for all my life."
"The woman smiled and nodded."
"Come what may, I will spend..."
"my remaining days with her."
Let us go to the palace.
Was that...
your marriage proposal?
No, I will do properly right this moment.
