[The King's Woman]
[Episode 48]
Summon the envoys of Yan State
Jing Ke and Qin Wu Yang, into the palace hall!
Today, no matter what happens...
I must succeed.
For the sake of General Fan...
For the sake of Mister Tian Guang...
For the mission His Highness entrusted to me...
For the sake of everyone in this world...
King Zheng of Qin...
You have to die!
Summon the envoys of Yan State!
Jing Ke!
Qin Wu Yang!
Enter the palace hall!
- Madam, don't leave your quarters! - Madam, don't leave your quarters!
By His Grace's command please don't leave your quarters, Madam!
You are all to step aside!
His Grace has forbidden us to use force against Madam.
Even if we have to risk our lives, we can't let you leave, Madam!
Your Grace, as you've commanded
we've welcomed Yan State's envoys with nine officials
as per the grandest etiquette.
Greetings, Your Grace.
Rise!
Thank you, Your Grace.
Your Grace, this is the head of Qin's traitor, General Fan Wu Ji.
Please have a look at it, Your Grace.
Bring it here!
Very good.
It is indeed his head.
I cut it off with my own hands.
It can't be wrong.
Where is the map?
The map is right here!
Please have a look, Your Grace!
Bring it here!
Your Grace!
This is the most abundant region in Yan State!
It's the map of Du and Kang!
It's also our main gift of surrender to Qin.
There is a list of produce and population on it.
Could I personally explain it to Your Grace?
Your Grace, it mustn't be done!
Sure!
Come up here.
Thank you, Your Grace!
Your Grace.
This is the regional map of Du and Kang.
Your Grace, once Qin State accepts Yan State's surrender
all the land on this map will be Qin State's.
Why don't I open it and explain in detail?
How does that sound?
You can stop opening it.
I know what you're here for.
If you stop right now, I can let you go.
You can lead a carefree life.
Carefree?
Ying Zheng, do you know what it means to be carefree?
You don't have a clue.
In fact...
What I really want to show you...
is this.
Li drew this.
She's never been to the sea.
She keeps imagining the day she can gaze out at the sea with me.
This is me, and that's you.
We're by the sea, gazing out at the ocean.
The sea breeze caresses us.
- Here, we're at the prairie. - Here, we're at the prairie.
- We gallop side by side. - We gallop side by side.
-We watch the sun rise and set. -We watch the sun rise and set.
Just thinking of it is wonderful.
In the third drawing...
this is you, and this is me.
- We'll visit famed mountains and rivers. - We'll visit famed mountains and rivers.
The paths through the mountains are steep and rough.
When I face obstacles...
I'll hold her hand.
We'll overcome it together.
Li drew every one of them.
This is what she yearned for most...
A carefree life.
It's also what the people truly yearn and hope for.
A peaceful world.
No more war.
This is what you can never understand.
Nor achieve!
As long as you live, such freedom...
It can never be realized.
Jing Ke!
How bold you are!
You dare to openly defy me?
I'll kill you in front of my officials and announce it to the world!
Obey my command, Tiger Valor Army!
- Present! - Present!
Without my permission, none of you are to come forward!
- Step down! - Yes!
Li Zhong!
Your Grace!
Bring me my sword!
Jing Ke!
Are you dying to know
why your remarkable combat skills are totally useless now?
I'll tell you why!
You've been poisoned by a lethal toxin!
I'll kill you today!
- Your Grace! - Stay put!
Ying Zheng!
You think I can't kill you because of some poison?
It's a rare poison from Chu State!
I... I'll see how long you can hold on!
Your Grace!
Your Grace...
Unify... the world.
Senior Jing...
Junior Li...
Is it you?
Senior Jing, I'm sorry.
I came too late...
Wait for me...
You're all dismissed!
- Yes! - Yes!
You still made it here.
Do you find it strange?
You used sleeping incense on him.
Yet he still made it to the palace hall.
I'll tell you...
Qing!
Greetings, Your Grace.
Qing...
How could this be?
Since you married into the palace
I arranged for Qing to serve by your side.
Qing works for me.
That is to say...
Everything you did with your senior behind my back...
I am well aware of it.
I see...
So that's how it was.
You've never once trusted me.
Qing...
What did you drug my senior with?
Poison.
It's a rare poison that His Grace gave me.
So...
You used the sleeping incense on me instead, didn't you?
Yes.
I wanted to protect you.
I didn't want you to be upset.
Nor did I want you to witness your senior's death.
Li...
I do love you.
Qing...
You're dismissed.
Yes.
Your Grace...
Now that you've accomplished what you set out to do...
Now...
I must do what I have to do.
You mean...
For Jing Ke's sake...
You're going to kill me?
I'm doing this for all of the world.
Do you think that I don't know just how many people you've killed
for your so-called unification of the world to become emperor?
You don't understand!
I once told you...
War is a just a method.
Peace is the goal.
I don't believe you.
- Do you want to kill me then? - Yes!
My senior came to the palace hall to kill you!
Since he couldn't kill you, I'll do it for him instead!
King Zheng of Qin.
You must die!
Fine.
Since you insist on killing me...
Let's not procrastinate.
With just the flick of a sword...
we'll end this once and for all.
Come at me!
If you don't let me go, I'll stab you.
You couldn't bear to.
Li...
Why?
I...
I thought of a solution...
Only by making you kill the person you love most...
could you understand what it means to love someone.
Don't say another word.
I understand...
Only if you...
Only if you can empathize with them...
can you become... a good ruler.
It's so beautiful!
You're hurt!
Done!
Does it still hurt?
Legend has it that on the night of a blue moon
if you make a wish quietly, your wish will come true.
How about we make wishes upon this rare blue moon?
Adults say that wishes come true if you drink when you make your wish.
Let's make our wishes then.
May I learn martial arts faster
and become a skilled swordsman so that I can help the weak
and rid the people of harm, just like my mentor!
The three of us have been brought together by fate under this blue moon.
I hope that we can all be safe and healthy.
May our friendship last forever.
May the world be at peace, and let there be no more war.
I hope I can be feared by everyone.
Then I can protect anyone I want to protect!
