What's the big deal about a mere court lady's death?
I don't have to worry about you being taken away any longer.
Must you have to greet the young nephew every morning and evening?
Despicable one!
Follow my path and build more virtue,
and give generosity to people.
Tear their mouth!
Forwarding such a foolish reason about reinstating the previous King, and trying to kill me?!
I have no more desire to live any longer.
Come to your senses, Your Highness!
Your Highness! Your Highness!
Are you standing there?
Queen Insoo~Episode 22~
Yes, brother.
I tried to kill the young nephew.
The nephew must be killed in order for me to feel comfortable in this seat!
So I killed and killed without counting!
Are you all right, Your Highness?
It can't be helped. I better call in the doctors.
Just stop it.
My illness can't be cured with medicine.
Your Highness!
I have..
committed a great sin.
Because I was afraid of father
I couldn't visit him at Changdeok Palace.
Your Highness.
It's all over now. The previous King is safe.
How much has he been resenting me?
He probably waited for me everyday.
You've endured well.
Even if you went to Changdeok Palace, what could you have done?
Instead you would've made your father angry,
and made the previous King in greater danger.
Even if the previous King lives one more day,
what purpose would he have?
Mother will eventually
have the previous King Killed.
Your Highness..
That's why I should've gone to see him.
If I went to see the previous King,
then how reliable would he have been?
Is the Grand Princess inside?
Yes, Ma'am.
I don't see the Grand Prince's palanquin.
Her Highness is by herself.
Really?
I heard that Grand Prince's illness is serious.
Pardon?
There are other things you should hide!
Why are you looking at Court Lady Choi?
Do you think I don't have eyes and ears?
It's not like that, Mother-In-Law.
I haven't told you, because His Highness is just slightly sick.
Get out of the palace with the Grand Prince for a while.
Pardon?
When I saw His Majesty in the morning
he asked why you weren't coming to greet him.
He asked if the Grand Prince
went to Changdeok Palace.
How could we? His Highness is..
The Grand Prince who can't lie,
may give the wrong answer to his father...That's what I'm worried about.
If he gets out of his father's sight once again,
then he won't be able to survive, even if he is the Grand Prince.
Didn't you hear it?His Majesty threw the writing tool at Han Myung,
so his head got ripped open and shed blood.
Han Myung is the one he cherishes as much as his own children.
From tomorrow, we'll go and greet His Majesty in the morning and evening.
Uh-huh!
The smart daughter-in-law can't understand what I'm saying?!
For a while,
you better not face His Majesty.
They're coming! They're coming! Come out!
They're coming?
After Sung Sam Moon, etc. got sentenced to death,fighting for Danjong's reinstatement
came to an end by demolishing their heard quarter,the Royal Research Department.
Yes, Your Highness.
However, that was just the new beginning,
The arrow that Sejo was pointing at,
began flying towards the ultimate destination, Danjong.
How have you been, Your Highness?
You don't have to worry about me, father.
The Grand Prince is..
He's been reading in the chamber without saying a word the entire day.
As if he has forgotten how to speak...
Would His Majesty's anger last for a long time?
He'll call you back to the palace soon enough.
Rather it turned out well.
He'd probably gotten out of His Majesty's sight, even if he stayed in the palace.
That is true..
This won't end until previous King gets rid of.
Your Highness,
when I leave this time and head North due to my job,
I won't be able to come back easily.
What are you talking about, father?
I've lived as much as I should..
Are you feeling ill somewhere?
Just send someone else instead. You should be treating your illness first.
There's no one else but me to go.
If something goes wrong, and if the Ming gets mad,
then His Majesty's position will become difficult.
There's no one who can convince the Ming, but me.
I received a promise
from His Majesty.
No matter what happens, the Grand Prince...
We don't need that kind of promise. You better treat your illness first.
Your Highness,
dying and living can't be managed by people's wishes.
Father!
That's the only thing I can do for you.
I'll be all right, even if I don't become the Queen.Since my husband doesn't want the seat,
what kind of greed will be left?
Didn't you see the humiliation that I received?
Since I'm the one who sold the sister to the Ming,
I've been living with all kinds of humiliation.
Hence you must
become the Queen, no mater what happens.
That's when my regrets will come to peace, Your Highness.
Father..
It is my wish.
Please become the Queen,
and make your children and their children connect this country's royal lineage.
Become the Queen, and then become the Queen Dowager
that is my wish, Your Highness.
Father..
Don't worry, father.
I'll definitely do that, father.
Your Highness, the Left Minister is here to greet you.
Your Majesty.
He must feel asleep.
It's all right. I'll come back to greet him next time.
Father!
You must return.
Return and see the Grand Prince getting the throne,
and you must live long until you see me become the Queen.
Let's go.
Get home safely, my Lord!
What are you doing, Minister of War?
Say it quickly.
Your Majesty,
an info regarding Song Hyun Su plotting the treason came in.
Song Hyun Su?
Yes, Your Majesty.
Song Hyun Su is?
The previous King's Father-In-Law...
Song Hyun Su is plotting the treason?
Yes, this humble servant can't even believe...
You can't even believe?!
I've already known that for a while!
I'm sorry, Your Majesty.
What should we do, Your Majesty?
If Song Hyun Su plotted the treason, then...
wouldn't it be due to the previous King's command?
Your Majesty..
You must put this to an end, Your Majesty.
You wretch! Do you know who I am?! I'm the father of
the Queen at the Changdeok Palace!
Your Highness!
The bloody wind is blowing once again, so how can you just sit and drink here?
Gwol Nam will probably take over everyone.
What more can I wish for?
Due to Prince Suyang, I can wear the fancy clothes, eat nice meals, and even have the giseng like you!
You must be full, my Lord.
If I wish for more, then I'll be the thief.
Isn't that true, Cho Sun?
Stop that!
You took difficult steps.
Not at all.
You'll probably get quite a bit of looks, if you say that you came to visit the Grand Prince.
Are you disappointed?
Since His Highness was ordered to leave the palace?
The world's generosity is like that...
So what bring you here?
I was going to tell you how the world is revolving.
Don't say something like that.
His Highness has cut off the ties with the world.
He is finally found his peace, so what's with the world?
Your Highness,
do you know His Majesty's intention?
His Majesty is extremely fond of His Highness.
Really?
Since he is fond of him,
he is letting his Highness stay outside and not calling him into the palace.
Wouldn't that be great then?
You probably know about this, right?
So, did you come to see me, so you can buy my royalty in advance?
Gwol Nam is foolish, so he is trying to buy His Majesty's royalty by marching forward.
How long would this last? If we must bet on that,
then we must bet on His Highness.
Is Sam Wol outside?
Yes, Your Highness.
Go and bring Prince Wonsan.
Yes, Your Highness.
What do you think will happen to the previous King?
He'll probably get thrown out of the Changdeok Palace.
If he can avoid death, then it's a relief.
Your Highness, Prince Wolsan has arrived.
Bring him in.
Yes, Your Highness.
Why are you standing there and not bowing?
Aigo, this is too much...
- Mother!- Why are you like this?
- I'm afraid, mother. - What do you mean afraid?
Just let him be. Since I'm such a scary looking he probably got surprised.
Your Highness. You're treating me too well. Please get inside.
Please take care of my son.
So, you must protect his highness no matter what happens.
Then my son will be able to sit on the throne.
I came to see you, so I could hear you saying that.
This humble servant, Han Myung will serve you as long as I'm alive.
Let's go.
How dare you making crying noise?!
If I hear you crying again, then everyone will be punished to death!
Look here.
The difference between humans and animals is humans have something called empathy. Don't they?
Don't cry for me!
His Majesty, who resides at Gyungbok Palace, probably feels even more painful.
Since uncle with the lots of empathy didn't kill me and let me live,
isn't this a happy occasion?
Let's meet again for sure, wife.
Even if we don't meet in this world,
let's definitely meet in the after life.
Let's become the ghosts and meet in the after life, wife.
Even then
you must recognize me for sure.
Yes.
I'll definitely look for you.
I'll keep that promise no matter what.
Your Majesty..
What are you doing? Escort the Court Lady Do.
- Yes!- Your Majesty.
Your Majesty!- Wife!
- Please hold on to my hand!- Your Majesty!
- Your Majesty!- Wife!
Your Majesty! Let me go!- Wife!!
Your Majesty!!
Your Highness, please stand up.
I got it.
- Let's go. Hurry up!- Yes!
Danjong's position got demoted to Prince Nosan,
and reside in Youngwol, according to the command.
At this time, his wife couldn't join him to Youngwol,
Queen Jungsun got dragged to Jung Wu Bun, where the royal consorts lives.
In order to calm people down, this was the part of their scheme of killing Danjong.
How is the Grand Prince doing?
What are you doing? Tell him quickly!
Yes, Your Majesty.
His Highness has been reading all day.
Grand Prince's illness must be all cured.
I got it. Leave us.
You can go outside as well.
What are you trying to do?
We better bring back the Grand Prince.
Why are you bringing back someone who is doing well outside of the palace?
The Grand Prince got the aversion stuck by you.
How can you say such?
Isn't the Grand Prince my son? What aversion?
Prince Nosan left to Youngwol.
There is no more reason for the Grand Prince to go in and out of the Changdeok Palace, right?
The problem is not the Grand Prince.
The problem is The Grand Princess.
What do you think is the reason the Grand Prince is
always against you?
Are you saying that is all our Daughter-In-Law's fault?
If not, then how can such a nice Grand Prince
can possibly speak back to you life that?
Please stop now. At least The Grand Prince got tamed due to our Daughter-In-Law.
If we had just let him be, then he would have done way more than that.
Who are you giving support to?
Support?
Deep inside you're not fond of the Grand Prince, right?
He is the one who went against my will not once but several times.
That's why I'm saying..
Are you going to forgive the Grand Prince,because you're fond of Daughter-In-Law?
- How can you say...- Do as you wish!
You must tame the Daughter-In-Law.
That's when everything will be in peace in and out of the palace!
Please come and sit here.
The moonlight is quite nice.
When I look at the moon,
it's quite fun.
Sometimes I see it smiling,
but other times I see it crying.
As if
it is like a human and making expressions..
I'd like to live like this forever.
With you and the children..
be at leisure..
We should do that then.
How difficult would it be?
I think I'm becoming more like you without me knowing.
Since I threw away one greed after the other,
I feel so relieved.
You can't live like that.
Why not?
Your
attractiveness is that.
You're a passionate person.
As if you're an arrow, you're always on fire...
Since it's so hot,
sometimes I feel afraid,
and sometimes, I'm trying to fix you without me knowing.
I like that side of you.
Husband,
I think I'm pregnant again.
I began morning sickness.
Is it...true?
Are you happy?
Of course I'm happy!
Is it okay to live like this?
I'd like to live like this.
I don't like the palace.
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by The Ambitious Team @ Viki
The Grand Princess is pregnant?
Yes, Your Majesty.
- Send this.- Yes, Your Majesty.
Send someone immediately and escort the Grand Prince and Princess into the palace.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Did you see with your eyes that she was having morning sickness?
I asked, if you saw it with your own eyes!
Eunuch Kim, who resides outside definitely witnessed it.
She has morning sickness...
Ma'am, what's going on?
You better be sharp.
It looks like the Grand Princess got out of Her Highness' sight.
You must have born with some fortune.
It must be!
Because of you this mother could lessen the baggage.
Congratulations, Your Highness.
Thanks.
Step aside!
The Grand Prince is entering!
Step aside!
The grand Prince is entering!
Step aside!
The Grand Prince is entering!
Your Highness, the grand Prince is entering the Gang Young Jun.
Should I get ready to go to Gang Young Jun, Your Highness?
Your Majesty, the Grand Prince has arrived.
Come in!
Welcome. The Grand Princess is pregnant?
You should receive the greetings first.
What greetings? Just sit down.
Your body must feel heavy.
How long did she even have morning sickness?
Oh, then do it..
I feel so secured, since I'll have three grand children.
You don't look so well, Grand Prince.
His Highness was as if he is participating in a sit-in,
he has been reading day and night.
A sit-in?
You must feel tired, child. Hurry up and go get rest.
Since she is so loud with her morning sickness..
Minister of Administration! Minister of Administration!
His Highness has entered the palace, they say.
So what?
I may have been on the wrong side...
Did we do anything to disappoint His Highness?
Weren't we the primary people who helped Prince Nosan get exiled?
That was His Majesty's will!
Han Myeong Hoe catches a sitting duck again.
I finally returned to my own house.
Mother-In-Law could be so snarly..
You haven't changed a bit.
Where are you going?
I wanted to go to Changdeok Palace.
The previous King isn't there.
It's been a long time, since he left to Youngwol.
Youngwol, you say?
Where is that?
The previous King has been demoted to Prince Nosan..
Your Highness!
Your highness! Where are you going, Your Highness?
Your Highness!
I haven't changed a bit?
This is my house!
Since I returned to the house,
I should get back what is mine.
Your Majesty!
Your Majesty..
Your Majesty...
What are you saying?
The Left Minister has passed away?
While heading for North and crossing the border,
suddenly he threw up blood and stop breathing, they said.
What were those doctors who followed him doing?
They didn't even get the chance to...
What should we do?
He dragged his sick body to the North for me...
How could I even face my daughter-in-law?
Wife,
I'm sorry.
After listening to you,
I couldn't endure it.
My father has passed away.
Your father?
They said, his heart condition got worsened,
so he couldn't even leave a word before passing.
Wife.
My father lived with
the guilt that he sold his sister to the Ming's royal family.
While enduring all kinds of humiliation,
"Your Majesty!"
"You must make me the Queen."
"You better keep the promise."
Your Highness!
Please give one more push.
I can't do it anymore. I think I'm dying!
Please endure it a little bit.
Tell His Highness to come.
I think I'm going to die this time..
How is she?
It's a difficult delivery.
She must be having a hard time.
What are you doing here?
- I came because I was concerned.- Concern?
What kind of concern?
Her Highness' scream is reaching all the way to the Queen's chamber.
She might award you a big reward when Her Highness hears this later.
Just stay lie down.
I'm sorry.
You've been disappointed of me
quite a bit, right?
No.
Do you think I did that because I wasn't fond of you?
His Majesty is very happy to have the third grandchild.
Please don't go against him from now on.
I'll keep that in mind, Mother.
You look like you're having hard time breathing. Lie down.
I said lie down.
I wonder what kind of illness is...
Since he doctors don't even know..
Your Highness, you gave birth to a Prince.
- Did you say a son?- Yes, Your Highness. Congratulations!
Father, I gave birth to a son again!
The Grand Princess, Han gave birth to her second son.
This child is King Sungjong in the future.
Moreover, Sungjong's second wife, concubine Yun's age was
nine years-old at the time, so she was that much older than Sungjong.
Let me try hold him.
Whom do you resemble?
Look whom he resembles.
Whom he resembles? He hasn't even opened his eyes.
He is definitely the Grand Prince. He looks just like the Grand Prince.
Congratulations!
Your Highness, please sit up straight.
Your Highness! Your Highness!!
Your Highness!
Wife..
Yes, Your Highness.
The Grand Prince regained his consciousness?
What was wrong with him?
According to the doctors, he is suffering from indigestion.
Really? He got indigestion?
He took the medicine and was able to sit up, they say.
That's a relief!
Were you surprised?
I stomach wan't feeling well since yesterday
I couldn't get up while greeting father.
Hence while I was enduring...
You should've told me in advance.
Now that I can tell you
I feel so relieved.
Why are you like that?
My stomach feels a little weird..
Lie down.
It's all right. Since my mind has been confused..
I just felt dizzy. That's all.
You had lost your consciousness for a long time.Don't argue with me and just lie down.
Please go and rest, wife.
It's hasn't even been long since you gave birth.
You'll sleep better if I sit here and protect you.
That is true.
When you fall asleep, then I'll head to my room and rest.
Then, I better get some sleep.
Your Majesty, Lord Yun is here to see you.
Let him in.
Yun Sa Bun is at the Queen's palace?
Yes, Your Majesty.
She is already inviting her own brothers..
I'm sorry to say this but Your Majesty, would anything happen?
It's so predictable. He probably knows how deep the Grand Prince's illness is.
Isn't it obvious, Your Majesty?
If something happens to His Highness, then the Prince will take the throne...
The Prince?
Prince Wolsan, I mean.
Who says the Prince has to take over the seat?
Yes...that is true, but..
Then, are you saying that there's another?
There's the brother.
- Prince Haeyang, you mean?- His Majesty's direct bloodline is alive,
so why should we give the throne to less than the four-year-old child?
You should've just told me like that from the beginning, instead of telling me indirectly.
Prince Wolsan cannot...
My son is still alive and well, so how could my grandson come into my eyes?
Please plot a scheme.
Yes..
Anyway,
His Highness probably won't live for long.
He is not even twenty years old...
Life is like that..
- That's why do all the things while still alive..- What are your thoughts?
On what?
Her Majesty's thought is a little different.
What do you mean?
Instead of Prince Wolsan,
she's thinking of Prince Haeyang.
No...we can't do that. The direct line is alive..
It's not wrong to think that way either.
No matter how pretty the grandson might be, he can't be favored more than her own son.
Anyway,
us royal subjects should help Her Majesty.
Do you think Her Highness would sit still?
What power would she have, when His Highness passes?
It's not an easy problem. His Majesty is extremely fond of the daughter-in-law?
That's why we must try to convince His Majesty.
What did Hanmyung say?
What does he matter in this case? He's been out of His Majesty's sight already!
I'm saying, because Hanmyung is the one who sees through His Majesty.
Are you saying that you can't trust me?
This is something that Her Majesty herself asked me through her brother!
Sit comfortably. Sit comfortably and receive my drink.
I'll pour it.
What are you doing? Lift the cup.
Do you remember? The water changes its shape, depending on where you pour it.
How could I forget?
I have a good feeling about this.
You're not too much or any less.
Drink it.
Drink another cup.
You don't want to drink one more cup?
No.
I can't bow to you, but I can give you alcohol instead.
Hanmyung is at the Main Hall?
Yes, Your Majesty.
What is that despicable one up to yet again?
Please protect my daughter-in-law.
Don't you understand what I'm saying?
Until where should I protect Her Highness...
That I don't even know..
Since not everything is turning the way I want them to, I began to fear a bit..
That's why you go and protect my daughter-in-law at time to time.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Why is your answer like that?
You could say whatever in front of me.
Isn't this worse than telling me to just die?
Why is that?
Ay, Your Majesty can't even handle Her Majesty, and you're telling me...
Someone might hear!
That monster-like one!
That wretch is the tattletale.
Come inside.
Are you deaf?!
Close the doors and get outside.
Who is still out there?!
His Highness has
what kind of illness?
He has indigestion, you say?
- I'm sorry to say this..- You better tell me the truth!
His Highness has..
Come closer.
Come even more closer.
More!
Whatever His Highness' illness may be
you must not tell anyone other than me. Do you understand?
Yes, Your Highness.
Tell me.
Please kill me, Your Highness..
What do you mean kill you?!
There is no way to save His Highness with my expertise.
Even the great Hatagawa can't
can't cure that illness?
We don't know exactly of His Highness' illness;
however, he has gotten so fragile and weak.
Please kill me, Your Highness.
You must live!
For me and the children's sake, you must live!
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by The Ambitious Team @ Viki
Don't worry. I won't die.
I'll see you taking over the throne.
Prince Wolsan must follow my path..
As long as you're by my side, I won't covet anything anymore.
Did you hate me that much?!
Isn't Prince Haeyang not his child? His Majesty is watching the daughter-in-law's move.
Since the direct bloodline is alive, what should I do?
Please protect my daughter-in-law.
Your Highness, you can't never enter the palace again, they said.
Is he the general of the Ministry(Uigeumbu) from Seuol?
Were panning of going there before me and wait?
[An ancestral tablet of Ui Gyeong crown pronce]
Today, His Majesty called us, so we're entering the palace.
