Faith (신의)

Episode 22

Move!

The punk uses inner power.

We need backup.

Hurry!

The one who committed such a deed upon the Queen

and upon our child ...

I'm on my way to meet him.

Yes.

I also thought over it many times.

That I want to run and kill him now.

I want to give the order to have him killed.

But I'm holding back.

I am aware of it.

People ... even the General can't understand me.

Must I insist upon it when I could just cast an order?

But I am aware of it.

I already understand it.

The time to return may become long.

I will be waiting.

High Doctor!

High Doctor?

What happened?

About that, the bamboo hat came

and now he's gone.

You punk is always talking in halves.

High Doctor, what's happened?

You were making the antidote.

There's nothing left. Not one bit.

High Doctor!

The tool's gone. Here.

He didn't come to kill me.

He came to take my tools, it seems.

He should just ask for it then!

It seems he trailed you from the palace, most likely.

He must have had that in mind from the start, when he came to find High Doctor.

By chance is that ...

Was that tethered on that person's sword?

The one that belonged to that betrothed?

Maybe.

I, really... would like to know something.

There is really something I need to know.

Please tell me.

That person's betrothed.

When she passed away, that person suffered a lot, right?

That's true.

How hard was it for him?

How long?

What is it that you wish to know?

That thing that's shattered.

My antidote.

In order to culture that again from the start it will take some time, you see.

However it can't be done before the heaven door opens, no matter what.

So the other option is to give all that up and give up on returning and start over.

But that may not succeed, you see.

If it doesn't, then I have to die. Me.

So if that doesn't succeed and I die ...

what about that person?

You intend to stay?

Would that be crazy?

It is crazy, isn't it?

But if I just leave then I think I really will go crazy for real.

Everyday I will only think about this.

Will that person be alright? Is he really alright?

Is he alright?

You should ask him yourself.

That rascal never really talks about himself to others so his words will be clumsy.

However, ask him. Then he will answer, to High Doctor.

This is the imperial letter to enthrone Prince Deok Heung.

Things would've been much easier if you had given it to me sooner.

Your Highness Prince Deok Heung.

I shall ask.

Go ahead.

When you ascend to Goryeo's throne, what is the first item you will accomplish?

As agreed, giving Goryeo to Yuan, would that do?

Afterwards?

Then I shall become Prime Minister.

Right. Prince of the Court from Deokseong who worked hard this time ...

I shall reward him suitably.

And then?

Is there something you need too, Dansa Officer? Just tell me.

So the answer just now satisfies you?

I am satisfied.

Since as long as those who are busy fighting for their vested rights govern this land,

they will not become a harm to Yuan nation.

I heard you are a Goryeo person, I think.

Yes. A long time ago,

when I had hope that used to matter.

Once upon a time, I had thought we could reclaim Goguryeo land, even I did well.

There was a time I had believed such even.

As long as I do well.

Goguryeo land?

However, it seems the world is always full of people like you, Prince of the Court.

The rest merely get dragged along.

In that case, perhaps the likes of a name of a land doesn't matter.

I came to that conclusion.

I won't be attending the crime inquiry.

Then ...

General.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Today could turn out quite perilous.

It seems it will.

Did you bid the greeting, to High Doctor?

Since I plan to return, I didn't make separate greetings.

For His Majesty the King's royal presence to descend ...

The prelude.

I'll decline.

Prince Deok Heung.

Yes, Your Majesty.

I'll give you a final chance.

Either you are put to death for the crime of kidnapping the Queen,

or leave this land.

Your Majesty.

This is a crime inquiry.

Whether the one who's captured here is innocent or guilty of the said crime.

How was he wrongly accused? To reckon each ...

I am telling you right now, I will forgive you.

I will forgive everything, so leave this land.

And I will expunge your name of royalty.

Do not ever covet the seat of the king again.

With that, let us see that citizens of this nation do not fight against each other.

Prince of the Court, carry it out.

This is the imperial letter of the Emperor given to me by Yuan's Dansa Officer.

From today forward, the throne,

has been handed over to His Highness Prince Deok Heung here.

Anyone who defies the command of the Yuan Emperor,

is to become a Yuan traitor.

As well as a traitor of this nation.

Prince Deok Heung.

Yes, Nephew.

Must you insist on bloodshed?

Since it's not Uncle's blood, it's alright?

If you detest blood so much,

don't resist then.

Right now in the royal palace the statesmen are likely gathered.

I plan to ask them.

Which king would they choose between me and Uncle.

Hence, wait a bit longer ...

Statesmen or citizens, I dislike such nuisances.

Let's do this.

The former king holds discontent over the current enthronement.

For his crime of treason against the King, we had no choice but to kill him.

Uncle!

I have more to say.

They are not ones that words will work.

Dol Bae.

I will escort you out.

No, General.

I must remain.

Let's go.

It looks like it will take a while.

A situation has occurred inside.

Prepare to face off.

When do we ambush?

Not yet.

Standby until the order is here.

Until when?

I said, standby!

Currently, His Majesty the King ...

is being detained at Eastern Expansion Headquarters.

Prince of the Court from Deokseong, along with the lords of the power houses,

enthroned Prince Deok Heung and raised a coup.

His Majesty ...

is only under the protection of a few over ten Woodalchi troops.

His Majesty ...

Her Highness the Queen is arriving.

Before His Majesty left for the Expansion Headquarters,

his words to relay to you statesmen, I shall relay.

This is the royal decree to dispatch the palace armies.

And this is the royal seal.

His Majesty, to you statesmen,

he wished to entrust it in your care.

Entrust the royal seal?

If by chance ...

His Majesty should suffer any incident ...

he said to have you statesmen to handle the aftermath.

Do you mean for us to command an attack on the Eastern Expansion Headquarters?

That is correct.

Then you mean for us to stamp the royal seal?

We're going this direction.

The entrance is that way.

I'm not leaving.

I will continue to stay here.

Your Majesty.

If the command is due to come, it should've been here already.

It will come soon.

First, we'll send someone to the Expansion Headquarters.

And find out exactly what's happened.

His Majesty...

is in a life and death situation.

Find out more of what?

I am aware of what many statesmen are fearing.

Today, for us to attack the Eastern Expansion Headquarters means we're attacking Yuan nation.

It means waging war with the Yuan nation.

You dread to have to make that decision with your hands.

The Yuan imperial letter has arrived, I'm told.

To Prince Deok Heung ...

they've given the throne.

Think properly!

Not the king bestowed by Yuan.
