(28 years ago in Jwamulchon, Amnokgok, West Goguryeo)
(Eul Pa So)
It's gross.
(Eul Eum, Eul Pa So's grandfather)
It is your grandfather.
We, the Euls,
were the royal family of Juna.
We helped Goguryeo that wanted our wisdom
to fight against Han.
Eul So who helped King Yu Ri
defeat Northern Buyeo
Eul Du Ji who repelled the governor of Liaodong
with King Daemusin's soldiers are your ancestors.
But King Taejo who was afraid of us
sent mounted warriors to destroy Juna.
They captured Eul Eum who was the then prince of Juna.
They cut the tendons of his hands and feet
and pulled out his tongue and eyes,
leaving him to die as a wretched cripple like that.
As the royal offspring of Juna,
you must wreak vengeance for your grandfather.
What are you doing? Kneel!
My name is Eul Pa So.
I am the descendant of Eul Eum who is the descendant of Maek
and has the blood of Jolbon.
He is King Onjo's uncle.
I am a royal offspring of Juna,
which was destroyed by the Royal Family of Go.
(Yeon Bi, Jolbon Chieftain)
Your Highness, this man
We share a bloodline.
(Mok Do, the great elder)
Although the bloodline was cut off long ago.
So what brought you here?
I would like to borrow the strength of Jolbon.
If you lend me your strength,
I will help you regain the old land of Jolbon,
which was taken by Goguryeo.
(Queen Woo)
(Episode 6)
Your Highness!
It is near Baeuitu.
(Fifth Prince Go Gye Su)
Send someone to Baeuitu immediately
to check the situation in the south.
Wake up the soldiers and get them armed.
Yes, Your Highness!
Gal Ro!
If we cross the river by boat at the dock
and block the way,
we will definitely be able to capture the Queen!
We do not need to capture her.
- Kill her!
- However, the Third Prince
Gal Ro.
Gal Ro.
Gal Ro!
Now,
kill the Queen.
I think we should fix the wheel before we go.
How long do you think it will last?
At this rate,
the wheel will come off even before we cross the mountains.
How about we fix it before we go?
We cut off the bridge. They will not be able to chase us easily.
No.
We cannot lower our guards yet.
He will chase us no matter what it takes.
Since you have never lost,
there would be nothing to be afraid of.
No. I am also
afraid of someone.
Who is it?
Who dares to frighten you?
No. Do not tell me.
I will make a guess.
The governor of Liaodong already lost to you.
Baekje is no threat to us
as they are busy fighting Saro here.
I think it is King Wigutae
of Northern Buyeo over there.
It would have been better
if you had helped with politics by my side, not just as the queen.
But you are wrong.
Even though Wigutae is strong, as long as I live,
he will never be able to threaten Goguryeo.
Then
who is it?
The ones I truly fear
are not these people.
Those who smile on the outside,
but are hiding a knife behind their back.
I fear people like them.
Are you going to leave the Third Prince
to go to the Fifth Prince?
(Fifth)
(King)
The soldiers are on standby and ready to go to war at anytime.
Who do you think killed the King?
Every tribe has rightful reasons to do that,
but I think
it is Eul Pa So.
It suits you.
(6 years ago)
So, my blood brother,
what will you do now?
I will isolate the King.
When the people turn away from him,
I will use Bal Gi to start a rebellion.
Bal Gi?
Do you think you can win against the King
with the power of someone like him?
It does not matter.
Because the King will be bleeding when the fight ends.
What if the King dies
before that?
I will make the Queen marry Bal Gi.
A levirate marriage?
Do you think she will accept it?
I will make her do that.
The princes will slaughter one another for the throne,
which will destroy the Royal Family of Go.
And a new Goguryeo will emerge.
(Queen, Fifth Prince)
I am sorry, but you will have
to be a chess piece on the board a little longer.
(Third Prince, Queen, Fifth Prince)
(Lady Jwa, Bal Gi's wife)
(Asabeol, a village of mounted warriors in the south)
If the King has truly died,
why are you telling us?
The Third Prince has a legitimate right to the throne,
but there will surely be those who oppose it.
He promised to grant you the position of Gochuga
if you help him ascend the throne.
(Gochuga, a noble title of Goguryeo)
We southerners, as descendants of Hwan Ung,
had a lower status than other tribes.
If you receive the title of Gochuga,
we will be in the same position as the royal family.
He has a point.
Do you remember what happened
to those who stood on the side of the crown prince long ago?
The succession to the throne is a matter for the royal family.
It is our tribe's rule not to get involved in
the affairs of the royal family in any way.
That is why we were safe
in the war between the King and the crown prince.
My lord, we
What was your name? Dal Ga?
Those without names take the names of the old tribes
and call each other horses, cows, pigs, sheep, and dogs.
But when they become Daemodal, they have the honour of receiving names.
When they become the head of the tribe,
they are granted surnames as well.
What do you think?
Do you not want to have a surname?
I cannot disobey his order.
Do we have three hours left?
How far off are we from the Fourth Prince's fiefdom?
Did you just say the Fourth Prince and not the youngest?
Your Majesty. Why the Fourth Prince?
Because there is something worth protecting.
The Third Prince will not accept it.
- If a war breaks out
- The King of Goguryeo
is for me to decide.
If he does not accept it,
I will defeat him the way
His Majesty defeated the Crown Prince.
(Baeuitu, Fifth Prince's fortress, Fourth Prince's fortress)
Did you say they headed to the Fourth Prince's fortress?
Yes.
Are you sure they are not headed to the youngest prince?
The Baeuitu soldiers said
they crossed the Amnok River and headed east.
It is clear she gave up on the Third Prince,
but why pick the Fourth Prince who knows nothing about war
instead of the youngest with a well-armoured army?
She goes upstream to the Fourth Prince, not the Fifth.
To go to the Fourth Prince's fortress,
they must scale the southern mountain.
The horse-drawn cart will slow on the long uphill slope.
Our advance party
will get them before they leave the mountain.
Go!
(Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit)
(Chukshi: The Time of the Ox, 1am to 3am)
Song Woo knows where Her Majesty is headed.
Will she be safe?
I took care of it already.
What concerns me more
is the fact that there is a place no one must set foot in.
(Eastern Temple Sabaegol)
- To the sky we pray.
- To the sky we pray.
- Make the land divine.
- Make the land divine.
- To the sky we pray.
- To the sky we pray.
- Make the land divine.
- Make the land divine.
Darn it.
Brother.
Let us do as Her Majesty says.
We cannot climb this mountain with wheels in that state.
Plus, a Wangdang should obey his Queen.
Your Majesty.
It could be dangerous.
The Fourth Prince's fiefdom is on the other side of the forest.
This is the only path if we are to return before sunrise.
What will you do?
Your Majesty. Let us return to the Third Prince.
Our pursuers cannot hurt us then.
I will lead the way.
Come along.
Release the horses.
Wheel tracks and footprints going separate ways.
Someone is assisting us.
Noe Eum, move forward.
Let loose the lantern!
Alert the second party of our location
while we give chase on foot.
We go to Sabaegol.
An offering has come.
Let us give it to our deity!
Get the offering.
This will be a noisy affair.
Yu Ha.
Come on over, punks!
Your Majesty. Wait here for a while.
Here is one.
I found one!
Over here!
Brother.
Hide.
They found us.
This is King Chu Mo's style that royals are taught.
Beware, everyone.
Stay low.
Come here, you crazies!
Kill them all!
Die!
You do not stand a chance in a fight against me!
Die!
Die!
Are they in their right mind or not?
Mo Chi.
Come on!
Get him!
Come here.
Die!
Hurry.
How dare you hallucinating crazies get in my way?
Pa Ya.
Find out if the Queen went to the Fourth Prince
- or the royal palace.
- I will.
And
I will lead you to the Queen.
(Inshi: The Time of the Tiger, 3am to 5am)
Not even you
can go straight into the Fourth Prince's fortress.
I will open you a path.
Can we trust that woman?
If she is deceiving us
Be prepared.
We go to the Fourth Prince's fortress.
Your Majesty.
If you wish to change your mind, now is the only time.
If I were to do so, I would not have come this far.
The Chief Priest resides with the Fourth Prince.
The Chief Priest has no army
Lead the way.
Come along.
Is the Fourth Prince in?
What brings you here?
Do I need a reason
to see my husband?
I apologize.
His Highness is handling something important.
He does not wish to be disturbed.
(Secretary Yeo Jin)
Leave.
Get out!
It is different.
It is not the same.
Your Highness.
No.
Bring the real Queen.
The Queen was more
- Madam secretary.
- She was
Your Highness. Outside the fortress
The Queen
Her Majesty is here.
(Fourth Prince Go Yeon Woo)
What?
The Queen?
It will soon be the Time of the Rabbit.
Before then,
it must all be done.
Your Highness.
This is too drab!
This is not right either.
Why do I not have any decent clothes?
Your Highness, please calm down.
You need not hurry to
My sister-in-law awaits.
Get me other clothes. Hurry.
This one?
No, never mind.
Your Highness.
The Fourth Prince is here.
Let him in.
What?
She is coming out.
It has been a long time, Sister-in-law.
Let us have a seat first.
Sure.
Right.
You have been this near,
but I have not gotten to see you.
Right.
Anyway, what brought you here at this hour?
Well, I
I will tell them to bring a new one.
It is all right.
We can share yours together.
Right
I came here today
because there was something I needed to tell you.
His Majesty
His Majesty passed away.
What?
You mean, my older brother?
Is that true?
Did he really
Prime Minister Eul is investigating at the moment.
What
If His Majesty's death is revealed,
the Jwa Family and the Woo Family will try to kill me to take revenge.
They cannot dare
I want you to protect me.
What?
How can I
If you take the throne,
they will not dare attempt to kill me.
What
Nam Mu had no son.
So naturally, Bal Gi will be the next to take the throne.
There is no way I can become a king.
You can, if you agree to a levirate marriage with me.
Excuse me?
What
Why
If you agree to a levirate marriage with me,
you will get to have the throne
as well as me.
Your Highness.
Later. Save it for later!
I apologize, but someone suspicious has come to the gate.
What?
Lilies of the valley are poisonous,
but they can also be medicinal if a little is used.
We found only a bit of them in the Head Maid's room.
Besides, they were young leaves. Young leaves are not as poisonous.
It may be fatal to small animals like chickens,
but it is not enough to kill someone.
Are you sure?
Yes.
Search her room a little more.
Sa Bi and the Head Maid may not be the culprits
(The Queen is on her way to the Fourth Prince.)
As expected,
you are the spy.
Head Secretary Song Woo.
What do you think you are doing in the Head Maid's room?
Answer me!
- Let us go.
- Yes.
Tell me immediately.
Poison made with lilies of the valley
was found in this room.
If His Majesty was murdered,
the culprit will try to make our family suspected.
They will try to frame me too.
Then, our family will cease to exist.
She went to the Fourth Prince, not the Fifth.
Are you trying to have your own fight
away from my plans?
But with the Fourth Prince,
you will not be able to defeat Bal Gi.
