Kingmaker: The Change of Destiny (Wind, Clouds and Rain / Baramgwa Gooreumgwa Bi / 바람과 구름과 비)

Episode 13

A plague has spread throughout Hanyang,

our poor citizens are dying in pain.

I respectfully offer these drinks and my heart.

I pray the spirits take my offerings,

Heumhyang An offering of food and alcohol to dead spirits

and relieve our citizens of this horrible plague.

Cheoljong 25th King of the Joseon Dynasty

My King!

My King! My King!

My King!

Princess, what should we do!

We're almost out of medicine from the Hyeminwon.

Princess, you have done enough.

We must leave.

I know...

If we stay here you might be infected.

I said, I know.

Come with me, we must speak!

What is wrong?

Are you alright?

Mother...

Mother!

Who are you?

I am shaman Ban-dal's daughter, Bong-Ryun.

You're mother has fallen sick, we are here to perform a ritual.

You will recover soon.

I can see things.

You don't have a fever.

You are stressed out.

Do not bother with me and take care of yourself.

Chun-Jung Choi has brought upon this plague!

My readings for this country was not wrong!

Destiny could not flow the way intended,

it was changed and altered by someone.

It flows in the wrong direction!

Our destiny's flow was altered?

Yes, Chun-Jung Choi dares to manipulate you my King.

He has disrupted your mind with thoughts of a plague,

and thus brought forth a spirit of natural disasters!

Yeogue An enraged spirit who was not given proper offerings, damning the living with disease

Because of Choi's curse, our country's future has changed course for the worse!

Do you actually believe what you're saying?

He has a point.

Hwasa Byung-Woon Kim The minister of Finance

Disease is brought by evil spirits.

Thus the reigning King, must perform

a ritual to calm the spirit.

My King, haven't you given up offerings while performing the ritual as well?

Indeed... Chun-Jung Choi is very sly,

everyone who was there

Heungin-gun Heungseon-Gun’s older brother

began to worry about a plague.

I am here to hear about a solution to the plague.

The temporary care center south of the Han River,

is full of critical patients.

We must exile them outside the soogoo gate and quarantine them.

Soogoo Gate One of Hanyang’s major water channeling gates

We must stop the plague and evil spirit from spreading.

Outside the soogoo gate...

That's were we gather the bodies.

You wish for these people to just die,

and throw them away there?

How could you say such a thing!

These critical patients...

We cannot force them to leave!

You just admit that they are in critical condition?

What is a critical condition patient?

If we waste the country's money on patients that are as good as dead,

our rice deposits will be empty and we won't be able to feed our people.

More people will die of hunger next year,

than these sick patients!

My King,

Heungseon-gun has a point but,

our country's vaults are almost empty!

Simam Du-Sun Jo The first vice premier

We must exile the Byeok-dong center's critical patients outside to the soogoo gate

Byeok-dong Current location of Cheonho-dong

How dare Chun-Jung curse us with fear and summon an evil spirit.

You must punish him severely, my King!

The medicine is here.

- Medicine. - It's the medicine, medicine!

It's here, the medince!

The medicine!

Ja-Young Min Future Empress Myeongseong

Welcome, Master.

Greetings.

He's still around?

Yes, we desperately needed helping hands,

he decided to stay and help us out.

We were lucky,

our medicine was about to be depleted.

Is there anything else you need?

The number of patients are growing, we need more bedding.

Man-Seok will gather carpenters,

how many beds do you need?

Again?

My Lord, our lumber storage is about to be emptied...

Do as I say.

The princess is in the medicine warehouse.

My Lord.

Have you been safe?

Yes.

Did you bring more medicine?

Why are your hands so cold?

How is your health?

Are you sick?

I think you have a fever.

I am alright.

I'll hold onto your hand until it's warm.

I have a very good excuse not to let go.

I am so happy to see you.

I am glad to hear it.

Is it not pleasant for you?

Am I the only one happy right now?

No, I mean... That's not...

What is this?

What are you doing?

Can't you see,

I have brought more medicine,

you should check if the plague has spread to your eyes.

Since she does not listen,

Princess or not, I will just have to drag her out.

There's no need for that.

I have already prepared to leave.

Where are you going?

To the palace.

I don't care if you follow me or not.

My Lord.

With all your efforts to save the citizens,

the heaven's will know.

Thank you, princess.

Take good care.

Yes.

Both you and the princess are righteous.

This child is Hoepyeong-gun's child?

Yes.

While I was traveling I met this child...

No, I mean his mother.

She was certain that he was Hoepyeong-gun's son.

Hoepyeong-gun had a child?

From what I have gathered,

his mother was Hoepyeong-gun's mistress.

In matter of fact...

She told me about Hoepyeong-gun's physical

features that only someone who has had sex with him could know.

You look very similar...

Pardon me?

You look like the deceased Dojeonggung.

You wanted revenge against Chun-Jung Choi?

Yes? Yes!

He has ruined my life,

I wish to destroy his.

If you can also provide a professor position in the Gwansanggam,

I couldn't ask for more...

If so, you must be as good as Chun-Jung Choi.

I despise incompetence.

Yes, my Lord!

The Lord Hwasa is asking for you.

Follow me.

Yes.

Your mother is safe, do not worry.

These flowers have been protecting her.

My Lord, you went to see my mother...

Princess,

The Lord Hwasa has asked for you.

What do you want from me?

The weather is nice, I wanted to walk with you.

You want to play with flowers together?

In the past,

you have found a child destined to be King, among the King's relatives?

Back the, you did not see Jae-Hwang...

And now you have seen a lot of him. Now Speak.

How's Jae-Hwang Lee?

Princess, what did you see, in that child?

If you knew, suddenly you would be side with Heungseon-gun?

Maybe I might.

The only thing I saw within Jae-Hwang Lee was...

Jae-Hwang Lee Future Emperor Kojong

A huge shadow.

Are you playing word games with me?

No, I merely speak what I have seen.

A huge shadow you say...

What's going on?

What is this?

Who are these soldiers?

How may I help you?

Master Choi, I bring the King's orders.

Young-Ha Jo Queen Mother Jo’s nephew

The King's orders?

All of the critical patients here,

are to be isolated outside the soogoo gate

You are to be arrested for sins of creating the plague,

and to be imprisoned.

What?

How could you possibly do this?

Master Choi did not spread the disease!

He has been saving all these people from it this whole time!

And how could you send the patients outside the soogoo gate?

That's where bodies are dumped!
