1
00:00:11,019 --> 00:00:13,939
Mom.

2
00:00:13,939 --> 00:00:19,731
It's the palace.
We're finally going to see my dad.

3
00:00:19,731 --> 00:00:31,106
Yes, Geum. Now we'll see your father.

4
00:00:31,106 --> 00:00:50,689
Let's go.

5
00:00:50,689 --> 00:00:58,689
ALL: Sire, rescind your decree.

6
00:00:58,689 --> 00:01:07,981
Consort Choi a convicted felon.
Bringing her to the palace strains reason.

7
00:01:07,981 --> 00:01:13,856
ALL: Rescind your decree.

8
00:01:13,856 --> 00:01:19,898
Sire, the ministers are outside protesting.

9
00:01:19,898 --> 00:01:28,773
I know, I can hear the whining.
But fortunately affairs of state call me away.

10
00:01:28,773 --> 00:01:33,106
Tell them this from their king.

11
00:01:33,106 --> 00:01:38,023
Consort Choi has done her penance,
six years of it.

12
00:01:38,023 --> 00:01:48,981
Calling her a felon holds the Royal House
in contempt and is a capital offense.

13
00:01:48,981 --> 00:01:52,981
In addition, I've named Geum,
Prince Yuning.

14
00:01:52,981 --> 00:01:57,814
And promoted his mother to Royal Consort,
2nd rank.

15
00:01:57,814 --> 00:02:02,148
Inform the Protocol Office to that effect,
understood?

16
00:02:02,148 --> 00:02:04,148
Yes, Sire.

17
00:02:04,148 --> 00:02:21,773
We're off.

18
00:02:21,773 --> 00:02:27,689
Your Grace.

19
00:02:27,689 --> 00:02:37,773
That's Dong Yi's little prince?

20
00:02:37,773 --> 00:02:44,689
We should have killed her six years ago.

21
00:02:44,689 --> 00:02:50,648
She never should have returned
to the palace.

22
00:02:50,648 --> 00:03:01,773
Your Grace.

23
00:03:01,773 --> 00:03:04,065
What? Consort Choi?

24
00:03:04,065 --> 00:03:08,689
Yes, Your Highness.
With the young prince.

25
00:03:08,689 --> 00:03:18,856
Your Highness.

26
00:03:18,856 --> 00:03:29,148
Consort Choi...

27
00:03:29,148 --> 00:03:38,689
Dong Yi...

28
00:03:38,689 --> 00:03:52,898
Your Highness, I trust you're well?

29
00:03:52,898 --> 00:03:59,939
Your Highness.

30
00:03:59,939 --> 00:04:02,689
And this is the prince?

31
00:04:02,689 --> 00:04:06,019
Yes, Your Highness.

32
00:04:06,019 --> 00:04:13,019
- Pay your respects.
- Yes, ma'am.

33
00:04:13,019 --> 00:04:18,773
Your Highness, at your service.

34
00:04:18,773 --> 00:04:23,731
I regret that circumstances prevented paying
my respects before this.

35
00:04:23,731 --> 00:04:33,689
Please accept my sincere wish
for your continued health and peace of mind.

36
00:04:33,689 --> 00:04:37,019
Sweet, clever boy.

37
00:04:37,019 --> 00:04:58,773
You're welcome here. Such an admirable
and dignified young man.

38
00:04:58,773 --> 00:05:05,648
We're really going to live here?
In this huge place?

39
00:05:05,648 --> 00:05:10,019
Yes, My Liege.
How do you like it?

40
00:05:10,019 --> 00:05:14,731
And all those ladies are our retainers?

41
00:05:14,731 --> 00:05:19,856
Oh, yes, your word is their command.

42
00:05:19,856 --> 00:05:27,148
Want to give it a whirl?

43
00:05:27,148 --> 00:05:31,023
Dong Yi, or should I say Royal Consort?

44
00:05:31,023 --> 00:05:34,689
You've been promoted to the 2nd rank.

45
00:05:34,689 --> 00:05:36,648
Second rank?

46
00:05:36,648 --> 00:05:41,689
Yes, by the King's orders.

47
00:05:41,689 --> 00:05:47,148
And the prince will soon be invested.
I can see he's quite clever.

48
00:05:47,148 --> 00:05:55,023
He's a fine young man.
I can't possibly thank you enough.

49
00:05:55,023 --> 00:05:57,065
Your Highness.

50
00:05:57,065 --> 00:06:01,814
But our important work is just beginning.

51
00:06:01,814 --> 00:06:08,856
I'm sure you're aware
what this will mean to Consort Jang.

52
00:06:08,856 --> 00:06:12,065
Yes, I am, very much so.

53
00:06:12,065 --> 00:06:19,231
I've no doubt they set the fire
to hurt my son.

54
00:06:19,231 --> 00:06:25,231
Just as I know how hard
it will be for him in the palace.

55
00:06:25,231 --> 00:06:32,019
He'll be in grave danger the older he gets.

56
00:06:32,019 --> 00:06:37,648
But I won't just watch it happen.

57
00:06:37,648 --> 00:06:42,689
I'll protect him, whatever it takes.

58
00:06:42,689 --> 00:06:46,106
As well you should.

59
00:06:46,106 --> 00:06:49,148
As will I.

60
00:06:49,148 --> 00:06:55,648
Whatever happens, you and
Prince Yuning can count on me.

61
00:06:55,648 --> 99:59:59,999
Your Highness.
