What did you just say?
How dare you?
Are you being traitorous to the royal family and the court?
The virtues of the ruler affects the people.
I cannot accept this regency that was in collusion with the jingol leaders.
What?
A virtuous ruler pains to see the people suffering.
But you alienate the people.
You drove out the royal concubines and their children because of a grudge.
You even confined the princess.
You closed the Office of Surveillance to cover up your attempt on Boro.
You murdered a witness in the process of destroying the evidence.
Quiet!
Aren't you afraid of the heavens?
Your tyranny will be recorded in history.
It will be a humiliation forever.
I beg you.
It's not too late.
Repent and step down from the throne.
That is the only way to save yourself and this country.
Get that traitor out of here right now!
Yes, Your Highness.
I beg you.
Step down from the throne.
Your Highness! Your Highness!
Your Highness!
Chunchu, you will not live.
Chunchu!
What's going on?
Yusin.
Step back.
He is a traitor who showed contempt for the regent queen.
Let's go.
You want me to save Chunchu? Are you crazy?
Don't you know that siding with a traitor will ruin our family?
If Chunchu is executed for giving advice to Her Highness,
it will be recorded as a disgraceful act in history.
Why are you embracing an enemy who disgraced your sister?
Chunchu is the father of Munhui's baby.
If you don't help, I will save Chunchu by myself.
Yusin, father is back.
Father?
You must have suffered a lot.
Are you alright?
I'm alright.
You must have had a hard time handling matters while I was gone.
Father.
Munhui, I heard you were with child.
Forgive me, father.
There's nothing to forgive.
I'm glad you're alright.
Her Highness gave him a special pardon.
Do you still want to stand up to her and save Chunchu?
Forgive Chunchu? No way.
Why are you asking me to forgive a traitor?
If you execute a servant for giving advice, who will speak?
Please be generous for the sake of unity in court and public sentiment.
Challenging me is challenging His Majesty and the jingol leaders.
I will have Chunchu's head and establish transcendent authority.
You can go now.
Your Highness.
Your Highness, Kim Yusin is asking to see you.
Kim Yusin?
Show him in.
What brings you here?
Did you come to save Chunchu, too?
If you spare him, I will become a loyal servant that guards your quarters.
You're going to be a loyal dog?
Do you mean that?
If you tell me to bark, I will bark. I will bite anyone who challenges you.
If you mean that, wash my feet.
How can you say that?
You can't insult a Hwarangdo leader who was a former pungwolju.
He isn't a Hwarangdo leader. He is my loyal dog.
What's wrong with a loyal dog washing the master's feet?
Isn't that so, Yusin?
I will show you my loyalty is true.
I'm impressed with your loyalty. I will spare Chunchu.
Thank you, Your Highness.
Before that, Chunchu will have to repent for his sins and swear loyalty to me.
Then I will spare him and use him in court.
Chunchu.
Yusin.
Can't you give in just once?
If you concede now, you will be able to live and make plans for the future.
I'd rather die than kneel to a tyrannical ruler.
Do you want to die before unifying the Three Kingdoms?
At least one court servant has to resist this tyranny.
That will be the only way for the people to have hope.
They will work to unify the Three Kingdoms in the future.
If you die like this, your child and Munhui's child will be pointed at.
They will have to live as the children of a traitor.
If I die, my children will work to unify the Three Kingdoms.
If I beg to the queen and swear my loyalty,
my children will become corrupt people who want fame and wealth.
I don't want to be a disgraceful father.
Chunchu.
Unify the Three Kingdoms for me.
Suppress all the bloody battles and save the people of the Three Kingdoms.
Is there no way to save Chunchu?
His loyalty is too great for me to change his mind.
Yusin.
You look very peaceful.
You must have been constantly worried when you were on the throne.
I can understand now that I'm sitting on the throne.
I will maintain the laws of the Divine Land in your place.
I will not let anyone forgive me whether it's the princess or Chunchu.
Don't worry about anything.
I will make your reign shine.
The only way to save Chunchu is to raise an army.
It's up to you whether you let him die or you raise an army and save him.
Gwimun will abide by your decision.
I'm going to make chrysanthemum wine for my husband, so pick nice ones.
Yes, ma'am.
What brings you here?
I came to ask for forgiveness.
It's all in the past.
I was disappointed with you at one time, but I let it all go.
Take good care of yourself.
Your baby is also my husband's baby.
What's wrong?
You really don't know?
Chunchu...
Did something happen?
He is...
What's wrong?
The baby... The baby...
My lady.
Chunchu resisted the regency.
He committed treason by showing contempt for the court.
Do you admit to the crime?
I only fulfilled my duty as a government official.
I can honorably say that.
You still haven't repented?
Under the guise of the laws of the Divine Land,
you are persecuting the opposing factions and the people.
How can we accept a Holy Mother of the Heavens who is so tyrannical?
Do you want to follow in the footsteps of your dethroned grandfather?
Look around.
The people around the throne only want power and success.
A ruler who can't see far into the future and
can't hear the voices of the people doesn't qualify to be a ruler.
Don't remain in history as a tyrannical leader.
Please step down from the throne.
Cut off your greed for power instead of my head.
That is best for this country and its people.
Quiet!
I will have his head and show everyone the dignity of
the Holy Mother of the Heavens.
Kim Yusin, cut off his head and protect the laws of the Divine Land.
Why...
Did you forget you swore loyalty to me?
If you refuse, you will also be punished for treason.
Yusin, kill me.
That's the only way to survive.
Chunchu.
I'm glad it's you.
I will do my best to help you unify the Three Kingdoms even after I die.
Carry out the execution.
Your Highness, I cannot kill a loyal servant.
Oh...
What?
I would rather die with him.
Take my head, too.
Why are you doing this?
What's the use of unifying the Three Kingdoms without you?
Execute Kim Chunchu and Kim Yusin right away.
Give the order.
Yusin is going to die, too.
Don't be rash.
It's their choice.
Master.
I also will die with the surveillance officer.
Me, too.
We will die with Yusin, too.
We will die, too.
Oh...
They are all traitors.
Kill them all!
Chunchu and Yusin didn't do anything wrong.
We can't let loyal servants die!
Stop it!
Your Highness, cancel the execution.
You must listen to the people.
Quiet!
I will not let anyone resist me!
The country will be in danger if you upset public sentiments.
Suppress them and kill them all!
Suppress them!
Your Highness, the people are rioting.
You must leave.
Stand back!
Oh...
Your Majesty.
Your Majesty...
Your Majesty.
What are you doing?
I am punishing traitors and those who committed treason.
It is dangerous here. You should go to a safe place.
Quiet!
These are my loyal people.
Why are you executing them for treason?
Who gave you such authority?
The jingol leaders made me the regent queen.
As the king of this nation, I deprive you of that right.
Everything you did will be returned to the way it was.
Any criminals will be investigated thoroughly before being punished.
Hurray for His Majesty!
Hurray!
- Hurray! - Hurray!
Chunchu.
Yusin.
Who knew His Majesty would suddenly recover like that?
It must not have been poison.
You mean he faked his illness and let the queen rule like that?
A ruler has to protect his country and his people.
He was probably testing the court's loyalty.
Did you know this?
The court's authority has been lost.
Everything went as His Majesty intended.
Sangdaedeung!
Your Highness.
Is it true that His Majesty is dethroning me?
He can't do that.
You must gather the court and stop that.
We don't have the power to stand up to His Majesty.
Sangdaedeung.
Hang in there.
It's a pretty daughter like you.
It won't stop bleeding.
We should get a doctor.
It's too late.
I don't think I will live.
Don't be so weak.
Chunchu will be here soon.
If I die, take good care of this baby and my husband.
Will you promise me that?
Oh...
I give you my word.
Poor thing.
I'm sorry I couldn't breastfeed you once. Forgive me.
Let's meet again in our next lives.
Honey!
Honey! Honey!
I'm here.
Honey...
She just passed away.
Open your eyes.
I'm here.
Your foolish husband is here.
Honey.
Honey!
No! No!
Honey!
Open your eyes.
No! No!
Did you know I wasn't really sick?
I realized later on.
Why did you do that?
I had to know who was loyal before I decided my successor.
I'm worried you might have lost some authority because of this.
It is a crime for a servant to deceive the king.
But a king has to test the court and take care of the people.
That is the duty of a ruler.
The servants who thought I was weak will have more fear now.
They won't be able to oppose me when I install the crown prince.
Have you decided who to install?
I'm going to install you.
You can't do that.
How can I succeed the throne?
It is important that a seonggol with the qualities of a ruler succeed the throne.
After I dethrone the queen and drive her out of the palace,
I am going to install you.
Are you really going to dethrone her?
That's too cruel.
Please be generous.
She colluded with the court and lost the trust of the people because of her tyranny.
If I forgive her, she will get in the way of you succeeding the throne.
Abide by my decision since it's for the sake of this country.
Father.
Your Majesty, this isn't fair!
Please don't abandon me.
This isn't fair!
I dethroned you and ordered you out of the palace.
What are you doing?
What is my crime?
The jingol leaders made me the regent queen.
All I did was fulfill my duties.
Why are you abandoning me?
You still haven't repented for your tyrannical acts?
I made the royal concubines leave because I suspected them of poisoning you.
I was going to punish a criminal for showing contempt to the throne
without any proof to establish order.
Why are you giving me such a cruel punishment?
How is protecting the laws of the Divine Land a crime?
This isn't fair.
I don't want to hear it.
If you don't leave on your own, you will be thrown out.
I'd rather die than live with the humiliation of being dethroned.
Your Highness!
Your Highness.
Your Highness, please calm down.
Your Majesty!
Get her out of here right now!
Your Majesty!
- Your Majesty! - Your Majesty!
Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
Your Majesty!
Please don't abandon me.
Let go of me!
Please don't abandon me.
- Your Majesty! - Father, please be generous.
This isn't your concern.
Your Highness!
Your Highness.
Are you alright?
Your Highness.
Get the doctor.
What?
She's pregnant? Are you sure?
That's what the doctor said.
She's pregnant?
It is a cause for celebration that the queen is pregnant.
Please be generous so she can safely give birth.
His Majesty ordered this tonic for Your Highness and the baby.
I might not have been kicked out of the palace, but I lost his affection.
What's the use of a tonic?
Please calm down for the baby's sake.
Wait and see.
I will produce a baby who will succeed the throne.
I am going to have a son.
I will get revenge against the princess who plotted against me.
I will kill everyone who wanted to drive me out of the palace.
Even if the food and bed are rough, if you're comfortable, it's paradise.
I am very fortunate I met someone like you as my husband.
You want to leave the court?
I know you're in pain because of your wife's death.
You must get over it and fulfill your duties as a government official.
It might have been an expression of loyalty, but I impeached the regent queen.
I still stand by my beliefs.
If I remain in court, it will damage the queen.
The storms in court will not die down.
I'm sure you understand.
I will let you resign.
Are you really going to leave?
If the queen has a son, I will never be able to set foot in Seorabeol again.
I will protect you.
Come back any time.
I will be waiting.
Chunchu will return.
Steel is hardened when hammered.
He will harden and return.
626 AD
A little more. A little more.
A little more.
Why is there no word yet?
Don't worry.
The queen will have a son.
I could wish for nothing more.
Munhui, you're almost there. Push a little harder.
Master, look. It is the energy of a king.
It is a sign that a king who will rule the Three Kingdoms will be born tonight.
What is it?
Is it a son?
I asked you a question!
It's a princess.
What?
What did you just say?
That can't be.
I prayed with so much care.
This isn't my baby.
This is not my baby.
Your Highness, please calm down.
Bring me my baby.
Bring me my prince who will succeed the throne!
Bring me my baby!
The prince who will succeed the throne!
You should eat.
You have to eat well to feed the baby.
He has Chunchu's eyes.
What's the use?
His father never comes.
Why are you saying that?
A parent and child can't be separated.
Your father is Chunchu.
He is a great person who will rule the Three Kingdoms.
You will meet him some day.
Did you bring a baby?
It's the baby of a drifter.
There shouldn't be any problems.
Take her.
You must not waver.
You must do this for the laws of the Divine Land.
What should I do with her?
She should not have been born.
Bury this with her, so she isn't lonely.
Forgive me for being so cruel.
Good job.
Don't forget that you're doing this for the laws of the Divine Land.
You must succeed the throne and get revenge for me.
Chunchu, did you come to congratulate me?
Step down from the throne right now.
What?
What did you just say?
A weak ruler who only cares about the safety of the royal family cannot save the people of the Three Kingdoms.
I will take your place and achieve prosperity for Silla and unify the Three Kingdoms!
Chunchu!
Indeed, you have the blood of a dethroned king.
You acted like such a loyal servant, but you're full of a traitorous mind.
Is anyone out there?
Execute this traitor right now!
