[Episode 33]
Can we really make an antidote with these deadly flowers?
I can't guarantee anything.
However, we should try everything that we can.
- Cut them. - Yes, all right.
Oh, you scoundrel.
Are you a ghost?
How are you alive?
Fire! Fire!
The deadly flower fields.
Fire, fire, fire!
Darn it. Go put out the fire first.
- Hurry! - Yes, Sir!
I will see you later.
Fire! Fire!
Oh, there's a fire.
- We need to work faster. - Yes.
Over there.
What do you mean the deadly flower fields are on fire?
They are putting the fire out.
It is too severe and they could not stop the fire from spreading.
Get the horses ready now!
Look at what you have done.
Why would you do such a thing?

Hwa Goon!
I am sorry, Father.
However, I have no regrets.
Let's go and beg your grandfather for forgiveness.
No, that won't do.
Leave this place to me. You should run away for now.
I will contact you once your grandfather's anger subsides.
For now, you need to run.
I cannot run away.
Hwa Goon!
The Crown Prince is alive.
I will not run away.
I will protect him.
I am sorry, Father.
Only you and I know what happened today.
I will take care of the lose ends.
You must never step up and get involved, no matter what.
- Do you understand? - Father.
- But... - What in the world happened?
Tell me what happened here.
There was an intruder.
- An intruder? - Yes.
He took the man we had imprisoned and the children.
So, you lost all of them?
Elder Dae Mok! I'm sorry!
All this time...
I have given you so many chances.
Yet, you've destroyed the deadly flower fields, the heart of Pyeonsoo-hwe.
Fa... Father.
Please... forgive me just once.
Forgive you?
You burned the heart of the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
You dare to bring up forgiveness?
I did it!
Say that again.
I set fire to the deadly flower fields.
Hwa Goon.
That's not true, Elder Mok. She did not act alone.
The Crown Prince did it.
The boss of the pack carriers, no...
The real Crown Prince is alive.
The real...
The real Crown Prince is alive?
Yes, the real Crown Prince ran away with his guard.
I saw it with my own eyes.
That is the complete truth with no lies?
- Yes. - It is not true!
The Crown Prince did not set the fire.
I did it!
Your Highness.
Your Highness...
What brings you two here?
Your Highness.
You're still alive.
You were alive.
You too.
Why do you look this way?
It is a relief that you are alive.
What did I say?
I told you they would be alive.
Why are you here?
We were looking for a way to make an antidote.
So, we came to steal some deadly flowers.
Those children...
Yes, they were working in the deadly flower fields.
Dae Mok's men will be following soon.
Let's go.
Be careful.
Hwa Goon.
To your grandfather...
what do you think the Pyeonsoo-hwe means to me?
It is something you cherish more than your own life.
The way I felt about the Crown Prince.
If anyone betrays the Pyeonsoo-hwe...
they cannot live.
Even if it is my granddaughter.
I lived my life the way I wanted.
I have no regrets.
Is that all... you have to say?
I would like to apologize to my father.
Please let him know.
Chief of Yangsucheong.
Yes.
Kill the chief of the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
Kill her!
Hwa Goon!
Hwa Goon.
Your Highness...
Hwa Goon.
You cannot die.
Hwa Goon...
Oh, Hwa Goon.
Are you even a human being?
How could you do this to your own flesh and blood?
How?
Hwa Goon!
Kill the Crown Prince.
If you do not, then I will kill you.
Do you understand?
Yes, Elder Dae Mok.
Didn't you hear Elder Dae Mok?
- Find them right away! - Yes, Sir!
Mom!
Mom! Mom!
Let me take a look at you.
Mom! Mom!
Let me see you.
Mommy!
Mom!
Oh, Mom!
Mother!
Mal Soon! Mal Soon!
Who is this? Is this our Mal Soon?
Oh my! Our Mal Soon.
You're alive? Are you all right?
Wol, Wol.
Yes, Boss.
I will come see you again soon.
You must take care of the younger girls.
Yes, I will.
Can we spare some time?
Since I am here...
there is someone I must find.
Why don't we do that next time?
There are many people waiting for you, Your Highness.
You really are an amazing boy.
The Grim Reaper has made futile trips several times.
You must've been very worried.
I believed that the heavens had not turned their backs on us.
Why are you in such a pitiful state?
I am sorry for making you worry.
You rascals, stop causing us such anxiety.
Thank you for coming back.
A physical side effect?
Seon, this is my name.
Are these characters really on my body?
This effect occurs and you end up with an antidote to the poison.
That is why you were able to survive three deadly flowers pills.
A physical side effect.
That's it!
It is these characters that can prove the Crown Prince's identity.
Yes, if this can prove his identity, he can return as King.
Professor, you can be a witness and prove it.
Then we can make an issue of Dae Mok's fake King.
I would have told you about it earlier if that were possible.
If only we had that large ceramic jar.
It will be hard to prove with just my word.
Why do we need a large ceramic jar?
The late King hid some secret orders inside of it that can prove his identity.
He wrote about the physical effect that would occur with the real Crown Prince.
Back then, he said he would hide it somewhere in the palace.
I just do not know where it could be.
Then we must find it at once.
There is big trouble! You must leave.
Dae Mok's men are coming here to catch the boss.
- Search the place. - Yes, Sir!
Once I find them, I will tear them to shreds myself.
Why, those little rats...
What are you doing? Find them at once.
We are all dead if we can't find them.
Search this area thoroughly.
Yes, Sir!
Elder Dae Mok killed Young Miss Hwa Goon?
Is that the truth?
I did not think he would kill his own granddaughter.
You do not even know how to cry.
Gon, are you one of my people?
Yes.
I am yours, Young Miss.
Protect the Crown Prince as you would protect me.
That is the only way I can live.
All right?
Until the moment I die...
I will follow your orders.
Are you saying the deadly flower fields have all been burned down?
First, I will work on keeping it confidential.
However, no matter how much we try, once the middle of the month passes...
Elder Dae Mok, we need a plan.
What is it?
Is the Pyeonsoo-hwe that important to you?
Enough that you would kill the granddaughter you treasured so much?
More important than blood?
More important than family?
Is the Pyeonsoo-hwe more important than that?
The deadly flower field was the heart of the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
Even if she was my granddaughter...
For once in your life...
I wanted you to put your family before the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
You said you became strong to protect the people you loved.
You no longer have family to protect.
What is the point of the Pyeonsoo-hwe?
How dare you try and lecture me?
In the end, Father...
you will lose everyone you hold dear.
You will die a pathetic and lonely death.
You scoundrel!
This will be the end of our father-son relationship.
Father, you turned your back on me.
Now, I will turn away from you.
Young Miss, what brings you here?
I heard you appointed the chief of Yangsucheong as Commissioner.
Is that true?
You even gave them the rights to mint currency.
They'll be in charge of all distribution in this nation's markets.
It is all under the Pyeonsoo-hwe's control now.
Is that true, as well?
Did you come all this way to discuss that?
Lee Seon.
Don't you know who Chief Jo of Yangsucheong is?
He is your father's enemy and he uses the Pyeonsoo-hwe to abuse others.
Things are different now.
Chief Jo is now my loyal subject and someone I need working for me.
- Lee Seon. - Young Miss.
I truly want to become a King for the people.
I want to be like a father to the people.
I will make a world where they no longer need to suffer injustice.
You want to become a King for the people?
So, how can you join forces with those who harm them?
Young Miss, I must face Dae Mok and fight him.
You know how strong and evil he is.
It is not the time for me to hold back.
Having Chief Jo as your subject is your idea of a good plan?
There is plenty of time for me to set my plan right later on.
Right now, I only need to grow stronger to fight Dae Mok.
Once I get strong enough to face Dae Mok...
that is when I will use my strength on behalf of the people.
After all the people have died off?
If you join forces with them, you will change and become like them.
Stop. I do not want to hear this.
Lee Seon.
If you have nothing more to say, please leave.
I will be visiting the temple.
You were kidnapped before. It is dangerous outside the palace.
It will be the anniversary of my father's death soon.
I want to visit his grave.
I would like to offer up a service while I am there.
Then you should go with my mother.
I will take Wiggly too.
Wiggly can stay here with me.
Dae Mok has all his men and assassins out looking for you, Your Highness.
I do not know how long this place will be safe from them.
That's right!
I believe we should no longer be fighting the Pyeonsoo-hwe from outside the palace.
Then should we give up now?
Should we just stop?
I mean the opposite.
We should fight from inside the palace.
He is right.
Your Highness, you need to return to the throne.
The only thing left to do is face Dae Mok head on.
Dae Mok and the Pyeonsoo-hwe are in complete control of the palace.
Minister of Government Administration is correct.
Your Highness, you must return as King.
Get rid of the fake King and become the legitimate monarch.
You need to restore the foundation of this nation's government.
I...
cannot return as King.
Yes, you are being reasonable.
Returning to the palace now would be hasty and akin to jumping into a fire.
- It is too dangerous. - By any chance...
are you afraid?
I do not have the right to be King.
Do not have the right? What do you mean by that?
Dae Mok informed me.
My father, the late King, joined forces with Dae Mok.
They killed the reigning King before him.
Your Highness, how can you believe someone like Dae Mok?
Yes, that cannot be.
Dae Mok must be up to something again.
- Isn't that correct? - Dae Mok is... telling the truth.
Lady.
The first person to bring the Pyeonsoo-hwe into the royal family...
Was it my father?
Yes.
Professor.
He plotted treason.
I am the son of a King who killed his brother.
Am I the real one?
Lee Seon, who stood in my place and became Dae Mok's puppet...
Is he fake?
Who is the real King and who...
is the fake King?
Oh, you have to get those.
- I can do it now. - Try it.
That's funny.
Auntie, I...
I do not want to return to the palace.
I understand how you feel.
Lee Seon has changed.
Can't you try to stop my Lee Seon?
I feel like he's walking on thin ice.
I'm scared and anxious.
What if the real King ends up coming back?
The real King...
cannot return.
What?
Young Master Chun Soo... is the real King.
What?
Young Master Chun Soo is the real King?
Young Miss...
Auntie, I am going to go see my father.
All right, I will go with you.
No, I want to go alone.
Lee Seon told you to watch over me, didn't he?
Well...
I may not wish to return to the palace.
However, I would not leave you and Wiggly and run away by myself.
Young Miss.
I got this one!
Oh, wow.
Oh, I dropped it.
Child, when did these spots appear?
Take a good look, all right?

I am very close friends with the boss who saved you.
I am looking for an antidote in order to treat all of you.
They started yesterday night.
Really?
I will make a great medicine so that you can all get better soon.
This does not get better.
That is not true.
You can get better.
Didn't the boss come with you?
He came with me, but he had someplace to go.

This isn't a dream, is it?
You really are alive, aren't you?
There's something I wanted to tell you.
Young Master.
I...
also...
love you.

[Episode 34]
Move! I said I am here to see the King.
You cannot enter without His Majesty's permission.
- You scoundrel! - Let the Dowager Queen inside.
Yes, Your Majesty.
You should be confined in your palace. Why are you here?
The royal family genealogy?
Were you studying the family line?
You memorized it all when you were 10.
Why would you be studying that now?
A person's memory can fade with time.
You shameless rascal!
Do you think writing that out will make you a part of the royal family?
You are nothing but a fake.
How long do you think you will get away with pretending to be real?
Your Majesty.
If you continue to say strange things, people will think you are getting old.
You scoundrel! I've known since you first got here.
I knew then that you were a fake.
So, what?
Will you bring the real one and seat him in this throne?
Do you think I cannot?
Try it if you'd like.
The real one is dead.
The boss of the pack carriers was killed by Dae Mok.
You knew the true identity of the real Crown Prince...
Do you still think you are the Dowager Queen who has power in Joseon?
You have lost your power and all you have left is your life.
Do you not realize that?
You scoundrel!
Shall I take a guess at why you are truly here?
Is it not because you are afraid for your life?
You are scared Dae Mok might not give you a deadly flower pill.
Yet, you cannot bear to kneel to Dae Mok and beg.
Why don't you try getting on your knees and begging me?
Then I could ask Elder Dae Mok as a favor to you.
- Why you... - Do not forget it.
Now... I am the real one.
Eunuch.
Yes, Your Majesty.
You can escort Her Majesty back now.
Wiggly.
Your brother has brought some very rare snacks.
Come on out and eat them with me.
Hm... I guess you want to play Hide and Seek with your big brother.
Let me see here.
Where could my Wiggly be hiding?
Found you.
Wiggly.
Do you still find it hard to be comfortable around your brother?
Yes.
Your brother...
would like for us to become close soon.
Here. Would you like to try some, Wiggly?
It's sweet and delicious.
Wiggly, do you not want to live here with your brother?
I liked living in our herbal medicine store with Mom and Ga Eun.
Can't you come live there with us?
Your Highness.
I will call you "Your Highness", from now on.
I cannot continue to call you Young Master Chun Soo.
Ga Eun.
Do you think I should return and become King?
Your father was a loyal subject.
I caused him to die.
I was a foolish Crown Prince.
No, Your Highness.
On top of that, there's the late King, my father.
He joined forces with Dae Mok.
He killed the reigning King before him.
Do I really have the right to become King?
Do I have legitimacy?
Your Highness, you have never overlooked the suffering of your people.
Do you remember?
All the people at the market nearly lost their living because of the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
You saved them.
Here you go. Give my store papers.
If it were not for the boss, we'd all be on the streets.
You know that, right?
I can still clearly remember how joyful the people were.
I also heard you stopped an army in order to avoid a civil war.
I cannot sacrifice people...
in order to return as King.
You could have returned easily as King, but you thought only of the people.
It was you who gave up on that path.
You say you have no right or legitimacy?
Legitimacy is not in the blood.
I believe it is in the love you have for the people.
The heart you have for the people is what gives you legitimacy, Your Highness.
You do get the right only by being in the line of descent.
Your Majesty.
That's for trying to save me.
I am just happy to be able to see again, Young Miss Ga Eun.
Your Highness, we received a message from Lady Mae Chang.
She says she will get help in the palace and search for that ceramic jar.
Ceramic jar?
The late King left some secret orders behind to prove my identity.
They are inside some ceramic jar.
They are hidden in a ceramic jar in the Crown Prince's greenhouse.
You must...
give that to Chun Soo.
That is why Lady Youngbin said that.
She told me to get the ceramic jar to Young Master Chun Soo.
My mother?
She said it was in the Crown Prince's greenhouse.
I will go into the palace and find it.
The palace is too dangerous.
You know Lee Seon is not like he used to be.
That is why I must go.
Is there anyone else who can enter the greenhouse naturally?
Please let me help you with this.
But, we are finally together...
Your Highness.
I believe we can make 50 antidotes within the time frame.
What should I do?
"Gold-Cicada-Emerge-Skin."
We will use this crisis as an opportunity.
We will shed ourselves of dead skin and will arise as golden cicadas.
You will use the antidote to determine who will live and who will die?
Is that what you mean?
We need a list of those who need to die.
Then...
that will be about 75 people.
It will be a chance to make the Pyeonsoo-hwe stronger.
Dowager Queen, Choi Sung Ki, Minister of the Right...
Minister of Sentencing, Lee Joon Kyung.
What about the Minister of the Left?
For you, Your Highness, and the people...
I will find that jar.
Ga Eun. I truly do not wish to see you in that dangerous palace again.
What brings you by so late?
Lee Seon.
There is big trouble.
The Crown Prince...
The real Crown Prince is alive.
He took three deadly flower pills. How can he be alive?
He is able to fight off the poison.
As long as he is alive, he will try to get back his throne.
I have a way to stop him from doing that.
I have a very good plan.
A plan, you say?
Go on and tell me.
I will tell you how to keep the real Crown Prince from ever becoming King.
So, why don't we make a deal?
A deal?
All right, I will hear your deal.
What are you planning on doing?
I will take it from him.
Everything... from the real Crown Prince.
I will take it away.
Listen up, Ministers.
The marriage selection process run by criminals has been nullified.
We will need to select a new Queen.
Therefore, I have given it some serious thought.
I will now announce the results.
I have decided to restore the status of former Hansungbu Magistrate, Han Gyu Ho.
His daughter, Han Ga Eun, will become my Queen.
The seat of the Queen has been empty for a long time.
You must be good and virtuous to your royal ancestors.
You must be a mother to the nation.
You have been chosen to be the Queen.
You will become Mother to all the people of this nation.
Accept your duties as the Queen.
Elder Dae Mok, how could the King dare do this?
He chose the Queen without consulting anyone.
She is the daughter of a man executed for investigating the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
Prime Minister, you thought you were going to become the father of a Queen.
You must be incredibly disappointed.
You are one to talk.
You thought you would be gifted with that honor.
You must be disappointed.
I gave him permission to choose who he wanted as Queen.
Why would you do such a thing?
We wanted the Queen to be a member of the Pyeonsoo-hwe...
We need to use bait that the fish likes when we are fishing.
I cannot use bait that suits my tastes.
The Queen can be switched out whenever we please.
Do not concern yourselves with small matters.
Still, a Queen is not a small matter.
Elder Dae Mok.
It is all right.
Did the head merchant send you?
The head merchant...
passed away.
Head Merchant Hwa Goon?
You're saying she died?
Dae Mok killed his own granddaughter.
Head Merchant...
What can I do to repay you?
Become King.
I know she would have wanted you to become King, Your Highness.
Do not let her death...
be for nothing.
It was not just anyone, but the chief of the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
She dared to burn the deadly flower fields?
And Dae Mok's granddaughter, at that?
I have already killed her myself and taken care of it.
Will this be resolved by her death?
The Pyeonsoo-hwe have lost the deadly flower pills.
What will you do now?
I will use this incident.
I will transform the Pyeonsoo-hwe into something new.
I will make a list of people who need to die.
Anyone who opposes the Pyeonsoo-hwe even a little will be gone.
If you do not pledge loyalty to the Pyeonsoo-hwe...
this will happen to you.
They will be made examples of.
This could end up being for the best.
What is this?
It is a list of people who will die.
The original is elsewhere.
This is a copy I made in secret.
That day, Young Miss Hwa Goon, burned all of the deadly flowers.
There are no more deadly flowers or deadly flower pills.
Dae Mok will only give the antidote to those who follow him.
All of these people...
will be left to die.
Of course, Dowager Queen and her subjects.
The Minister of the Left?
Is he not one of Dae Mok's men?
There is not enough antidote.
Not all of the Pyeonsoo-hwe members will survive this.
Then the people who will not get an antidote and will die...
How many in total?
I heard it will be around 75 people.
Get everyone... and bring them here.
Everyone...
must hear what I have to say.
I am the son of a traitor.
I wondered if I truly have the right to become a King.
I was very conflicted.
Also, I thought one thing.
I came to one conclusion.
The late King joined forces with the Pyeonsoo-hwe in order to become King.
But, I...
will become King in order to destroy the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
If we cannot get the antidote within a dozen days
all of the 75 people listed here...
will lose their lives.
Though they are members of the Pyeonsoo-hwe, they are still my people.
If I turn my back on people dying, how can I call myself a ruler?
Therefore...
I will return now as the King.
I will not hold back or hesitate any longer.
I will return as King, make the antidote, and save my people.
They will pay for manipulating the government.
I will punish Dae Mok and the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
Everyone...
will you please join me?
Your Majesty!
I accept your command!
- I accept your command! - I accept your command!

[Ruler: Master of the Mask]
I will take off my mask.
You want to be real starting from the root.
How long will you stand by and watch?
Join me for the sake of Joseon's future.
The fate of Joseon will be determined, here, on this very spot.
I will make sure to catch him and bring him to you, Elder.
There are traps in every direction.
Will he really survive and make it to the throne?
I... am the real King of this nation!
