Man Cheng Jin Dai Huang Jin Jia Curse of the Golden Flower
|
| 00:02:23 |
His Highness, Prince Yu arrives! |
| 00:02:28 |
Your Majesty. |
| 00:02:30 |
Yu... |
| 00:02:31 |
is everything ready? |
| 00:02:35 |
Mother... |
| 00:02:36 |
Second Brother should be here soon. |
| 00:02:38 |
Has he entered the Palace? |
| 00:02:39 |
I hear he stopped at the Official |
| 00:02:42 |
First Brother mentioned... |
| 00:02:44 |
that as soon as Father arrives... |
| 00:02:45 |
he will ask permission to leave. |
| 00:02:48 |
He wants to go to Qingzhou. |
| 00:03:13 |
Mother. |
| 00:03:28 |
Her Majesty the Empress arrives! |
| 00:03:39 |
First Brother. |
| 00:03:41 |
Your Majesty. |
| 00:04:07 |
So you are leaving. |
| 00:04:10 |
Are you afraid? |
| 00:04:12 |
You are my mother, Your Majesty. |
| 00:04:16 |
We have been |
| 00:04:18 |
You, of all people |
| 00:04:21 |
I am first and |
| 00:04:32 |
Mother! |
| 00:04:34 |
I am not your mother! |
| 00:04:40 |
Many things can be changed. |
| 00:04:43 |
In fact, nothing can be changed. |
| 00:04:49 |
Still, I would like to try. |
| 00:04:52 |
What are you going to do? |
| 00:04:54 |
It is time to go |
| 00:05:13 |
The day breaks. |
| 00:05:15 |
The court presides. |
| 00:05:18 |
Peace to all. |
| 00:05:20 |
It is the Hour of the Tiger. |
| 00:05:24 |
The day breaks. |
| 00:05:26 |
The court presides. |
| 00:05:29 |
Peace to all. |
| 00:05:30 |
It is the Hour of the Tiger. |
| 00:05:38 |
Your servant kneels |
| 00:05:40 |
Your Majesty's medicine |
| 00:07:06 |
By the Emperor's command... |
| 00:07:08 |
retire to your chambers! |
| 00:07:10 |
The welcome ceremony is cancelled! |
| 00:07:12 |
Retire to your chambers! |
| 00:07:14 |
The welcome ceremony is cancelled! |
| 00:07:16 |
The Emperor commands... |
| 00:07:18 |
retire to your chambers! |
| 00:07:20 |
The welcome ceremony is cancelled! |
| 00:07:22 |
Retire to your chambers! |
| 00:07:24 |
The welcome ceremony is cancelled! |
| 00:07:26 |
Your Majesty... |
| 00:07:27 |
the Emperor commands... |
| 00:07:28 |
everyone is to return |
| 00:07:30 |
The welcome ceremony is cancelled. |
| 00:07:33 |
Where is His Majesty? |
| 00:07:34 |
The Emperor has diverted his |
| 00:07:36 |
Your Majesty... |
| 00:07:37 |
the Emperor requests the presence |
| 00:07:40 |
on the Chrysanthemum Terrace |
| 00:07:52 |
Your Highness, Prince Jai... |
| 00:07:54 |
the Emperor has arrived. |
| 00:08:00 |
Your son kneels before the Emperor. |
| 00:08:21 |
I am honored... |
| 00:08:22 |
by Father's personal visit. |
| 00:08:42 |
Come. |
| 00:10:05 |
Father's prowess is unequaled. |
| 00:10:09 |
The decision to send you |
| 00:10:12 |
was clearly the right one. |
| 00:10:14 |
I came here today... |
| 00:10:16 |
to warn you... |
| 00:10:18 |
against your past mistakes. |
| 00:10:23 |
There are many things |
| 00:10:25 |
but you can only have... |
| 00:10:27 |
what I choose to give you. |
| 00:10:29 |
What I do not give... |
| 00:10:30 |
you must never take by force. |
| 00:10:33 |
Father's counsel... |
| 00:10:34 |
is etched into my heart. |
| 00:10:44 |
Return to the Palace with me. |
| 00:11:06 |
His Highness, Prince Jai arrives! |
| 00:11:08 |
Jai. |
| 00:11:15 |
Your son kneels before the Empress. |
| 00:11:21 |
Mother. |
| 00:11:24 |
It has been over three years. |
| 00:11:27 |
Have you been well? |
| 00:11:34 |
I am very well. |
| 00:11:39 |
And you? |
| 00:11:41 |
I have missed Mother... |
| 00:11:43 |
every moment of every day. |
| 00:11:47 |
Mother. |
| 00:11:53 |
You must have suffered. |
| 00:11:55 |
I am fine. |
| 00:13:24 |
Charity seeks no recognition. |
| 00:13:27 |
Virtue seeks no reward. |
| 00:13:29 |
The harvest is abundant. |
| 00:13:31 |
It is the Hour of the Rabbit. |
| 00:13:36 |
Your Majesty... |
| 00:13:39 |
the Empress has been |
| 00:13:41 |
daily and without interruption. |
| 00:13:46 |
Following Your Majesty's |
| 00:13:48 |
the black fungus is added |
| 00:13:52 |
Nobody knows about |
| 00:13:57 |
Has it been ten days now? |
| 00:13:59 |
Exactly ten days. |
| 00:14:01 |
Is your relationship |
| 00:14:12 |
Why is Mother embroidering |
| 00:14:15 |
It is the Chrysanthemum Festival soon, |
| 00:14:25 |
Mother! |
| 00:14:26 |
Mother! |
| 00:14:27 |
Your Majesty! Your Majesty! |
| 00:14:29 |
What is the matter? |
| 00:14:30 |
Your Highness... |
| 00:14:31 |
your servant does not know. |
| 00:14:32 |
It is the third time |
| 00:14:50 |
Mother's illness is clearly serious. |
| 00:14:52 |
Have you been taking your medicine? |
| 00:15:06 |
Have a rest. |
| 00:15:08 |
Before the Chrysanthemum Festival... |
| 00:15:10 |
I must finish all the embroidery. |
| 00:15:19 |
Why don't you go |
| 00:15:24 |
His Highness, Prince Jai arrives! |
| 00:15:27 |
Jai bows to his First Brother, |
| 00:15:30 |
Second Brother, please sit. |
| 00:15:32 |
Thank you. |
| 00:15:33 |
Second Brother. |
| 00:15:34 |
Yu. |
| 00:15:40 |
Second Brother... |
| 00:15:41 |
I hear Father changed his plans |
| 00:15:43 |
We all waited up half |
| 00:15:47 |
These years away from home... |
| 00:15:48 |
must have been hard. |
| 00:15:50 |
It was fine. |
| 00:15:52 |
Do you know what |
| 00:15:56 |
Father says she suffers from anemia. |
| 00:15:59 |
She has been taking |
| 00:16:06 |
She seems to be obsessed |
| 00:16:10 |
They must be for the Festival. |
| 00:16:38 |
Dad! |
| 00:16:43 |
Have you been visiting |
| 00:16:45 |
Why would I visit the Crown Prince? |
| 00:16:47 |
Father knows. |
| 00:16:50 |
What do you know? |
| 00:16:52 |
Go more often! |
| 00:17:11 |
This is a Persian black fungus. |
| 00:17:13 |
Do you know its properties? |
| 00:17:16 |
Two grams a day, |
| 00:17:18 |
will cause a person to lose |
| 00:17:24 |
And you think you know so much. |
| 00:17:28 |
But the Empress... |
| 00:17:29 |
Don't breathe a word. |
| 00:17:30 |
Our entire clan will be executed! |
| 00:17:48 |
Law of the nation... |
| 00:17:51 |
Precept of the home... |
| 00:17:53 |
Ancient yet unchanged. |
| 00:17:55 |
It is the Hour of the Dragon. |
| 00:18:08 |
Your servant kneels |
| 00:18:10 |
Your Majesty's medicine |
| 00:18:17 |
So, you are Chan. |
| 00:18:19 |
Yes, Your Majesty. |
| 00:18:21 |
The Imperial Doctor is your father? |
| 00:18:24 |
Yes. |
| 00:18:30 |
The Crown Prince seems |
| 00:18:36 |
Is the Empress asking her servant? |
| 00:18:43 |
My duty is only to prepare |
| 00:18:46 |
I am not acquainted with |
| 00:18:49 |
Is that so? |
| 00:18:56 |
You may enter. |
| 00:20:01 |
'To the highest mountains |
| 00:20:05 |
but one is missing, |
| 00:20:09 |
Prince Jai has returned. |
| 00:20:11 |
The family is reunited. |
| 00:20:26 |
Do you know why... |
| 00:20:27 |
every Chrysanthemum Festival... |
| 00:20:28 |
we assemble on this high |
| 00:20:34 |
Father, on the ninth day |
| 00:20:36 |
the sun and the moon unite. |
| 00:20:37 |
We call this the |
| 00:20:40 |
It symbolizes the strength |
| 00:20:41 |
and we always celebrate |
| 00:20:43 |
That is a very good answer. |
| 00:20:46 |
The terrace is round. |
| 00:20:49 |
What do they represent? |
| 00:20:51 |
That Heaven is round. |
| 00:20:53 |
The law of the Heavens... |
| 00:20:54 |
dictates the rule of earthly life... |
| 00:20:56 |
under the circle, |
| 00:20:58 |
everyone has his proper placement. |
| 00:21:00 |
This is called natural law. |
| 00:21:02 |
Emperor, Courtier, Father, Son... |
| 00:21:04 |
loyalty, filial piety, |
| 00:21:06 |
all relationships obey this law. |
| 00:21:09 |
Do you have any requests? |
| 00:21:11 |
Your Majesty... |
| 00:21:12 |
I beg permission... |
| 00:21:14 |
to travel to Qingzhou. |
| 00:21:17 |
You also wish to be |
| 00:21:19 |
I have never left the Palace... |
| 00:21:20 |
and would like to gain |
| 00:21:28 |
Is there anything else? |
| 00:21:31 |
Father... |
| 00:21:33 |
I beg your permission, also. |
| 00:21:34 |
What is it? |
| 00:21:35 |
I... |
| 00:21:37 |
do not know if it |
| 00:21:39 |
Then speak when you do know. |
| 00:21:45 |
You did not finish the medicine |
| 00:21:47 |
served at the Hour of the Dragon. |
| 00:21:51 |
Is there any left? |
| 00:21:55 |
Your Majesty... |
| 00:21:56 |
there is a sip or two. |
| 00:21:57 |
Serve it to the Empress. |
| 00:21:58 |
Yes. |
| 00:22:00 |
Your Majesty... |
| 00:22:01 |
your consort is not ill. |
| 00:22:04 |
That is your opinion. |
| 00:22:10 |
Medicine has to be taken in the |
| 00:22:13 |
Everything abides by its own law. |
| 00:22:33 |
Yu. |
| 00:22:39 |
Mother, please do not upset Father. |
| 00:22:49 |
Mother, please take the medicine. |
| 00:22:56 |
Remain kneeling... |
| 00:22:58 |
until your mother drains the cup. |
| 00:23:09 |
Father... |
| 00:23:10 |
Mother does not wish to drink. |
| 00:23:11 |
Why not let her be? |
| 00:23:12 |
Medicine is governed by dosage... |
| 00:23:15 |
just as life is governed |
| 00:23:16 |
Surely you all know this. |
| 00:23:31 |
Mother... |
| 00:23:32 |
you have been taking |
| 00:23:34 |
This is only a little sip... |
| 00:23:36 |
why refuse? |
| 00:23:44 |
You are right. |
| 00:23:47 |
I have been taking |
| 00:23:53 |
why refuse now? |
| 00:24:19 |
Your mother is not well. |
| 00:24:22 |
Are you not aware? |
| 00:24:23 |
We know, Father. |
| 00:24:26 |
If a person is sick, |
| 00:24:29 |
Why is this unusual? |
| 00:24:36 |
What were you trying to say just now? |
| 00:24:38 |
Father... |
| 00:24:39 |
I would like... |
| 00:24:41 |
on the night of the |
| 00:24:42 |
I would like to command |
| 00:24:45 |
I, too, wish to gain experience. |
| 00:24:49 |
Since Prince Jai has returned... |
| 00:24:52 |
he will assume this duty. |
| 00:24:55 |
Jai. |
| 00:24:57 |
Present, Father. |
| 00:24:58 |
The Imperial Guards |
| 00:25:02 |
On the night of the Festival... |
| 00:25:03 |
they will be under your sole command. |
| 00:25:06 |
Do you understand? |
| 00:25:07 |
Father's trust will not be misplaced. |
| 00:25:11 |
You know what to do. |
| 00:25:21 |
The Empress arrives. |
| 00:25:31 |
Your consort kneels before the Emperor. |
| 00:25:39 |
Do you know why I summoned you? |
| 00:25:43 |
Today... |
| 00:25:45 |
you acted against the family's wishes. |
| 00:25:47 |
Watch closely... |
| 00:25:53 |
I select each ingredient personally... |
| 00:25:55 |
with utmost care. |
| 00:25:57 |
This will cure your anemia. |
| 00:26:01 |
I thank His Majesty for his concern. |
| 00:26:03 |
All good medicine tastes bitter. |
| 00:26:05 |
You have excess bile... |
| 00:26:07 |
poor digestion... |
| 00:26:08 |
Yin and Yang are out of balance. |
| 00:26:10 |
That is why you are fractious... |
| 00:26:12 |
listless and lethargic... |
| 00:26:14 |
capable of nothing but cutting remarks. |
| 00:26:18 |
These are all symptoms of anemia. |
| 00:26:20 |
It has been more than ten years. |
| 00:26:21 |
My so-called sickness... |
| 00:26:23 |
is clearly not improving |
| 00:26:35 |
If your father were not |
| 00:26:39 |
I would scarcely |
| 00:26:40 |
with such restraint. |
| 00:26:43 |
You had better understand... |
| 00:26:45 |
that as long as I am the Emperor... |
| 00:26:47 |
and you, the Empress... |
| 00:26:49 |
we shall play |
| 00:26:51 |
The Imperial Family... |
| 00:26:53 |
has to set an example |
| 00:27:00 |
For the sake of this family... |
| 00:27:03 |
there is much that |
| 00:27:06 |
because my concern... |
| 00:27:08 |
is to maintain law |
| 00:27:12 |
Chickens roost. |
| 00:27:14 |
Gentlemen to rest. |
| 00:27:17 |
Streams run clear. |
| 00:27:18 |
It is the Hour of the Snake. |
| 00:27:30 |
Your servant kneels |
| 00:27:32 |
Your Majesty's medicine |
| 00:28:59 |
Thank you, Your Majesty. |
| 00:29:33 |
Do you know what day it is tomorrow? |
| 00:29:35 |
The Chrysanthemum Festival... |
| 00:29:37 |
the day my birth mother died. |
| 00:29:39 |
You lost your mother |
| 00:29:42 |
and I was away at war |
| 00:29:45 |
I never took proper care of you. |
| 00:29:48 |
This has created a distance |
| 00:29:52 |
but you have always |
| 00:29:56 |
I asked Jai to come back... |
| 00:29:58 |
and gave him a heavy |
| 00:30:01 |
Did you wonder why? |
| 00:30:03 |
Father... |
| 00:30:05 |
is thinking of... |
| 00:30:07 |
making Jai the Crown Prince. |
| 00:30:09 |
If this makes you uncomfortable... |
| 00:30:11 |
I shall not go ahead. |
| 00:30:13 |
Father need not worry. |
| 00:30:15 |
I am without talent... |
| 00:30:16 |
and do not deserve the throne. |
| 00:30:18 |
Twice in the past I begged Father |
| 00:30:21 |
I had meant it sincerely. |
| 00:30:23 |
Father's wish is my wish. |
| 00:30:37 |
How did you manage to sneak away? |
| 00:30:46 |
Did the Emperor grant you |
| 00:31:01 |
After the Festival... |
| 00:31:02 |
if Your Highness asks again... |
| 00:31:04 |
I am sure the Emperor will say yes. |
| 00:31:12 |
Your Highness, |
| 00:31:13 |
to take Chan with you. |
| 00:31:21 |
Once there... |
| 00:31:22 |
we shall finally be together. |
| 00:31:25 |
If only I could get away... |
| 00:31:28 |
It will happen! |
| 00:32:23 |
Her Majesty the Empress arrives! |
| 00:32:44 |
Your Majesty. |
| 00:32:59 |
You can tell her to come out. |
| 00:33:01 |
What did Mother say? |
| 00:33:03 |
Tell her to come out! |
| 00:33:06 |
Mother... |
| 00:33:12 |
Come out! |
| 00:33:25 |
What is the punishment? |
| 00:33:27 |
For seducing the Crown Prince... |
| 00:33:28 |
trespassing into royal chambers... |
| 00:33:30 |
by law twenty lashes of the whip... |
| 00:33:32 |
branding of the face... |
| 00:33:33 |
and banishment from the Palace. |
| 00:33:39 |
Your Highness, what do you suggest? |
| 00:33:47 |
What happened |
| 00:33:51 |
For my sake, I beg Your Majesty... |
| 00:33:54 |
to exercise lenience. |
| 00:34:00 |
Mother, please spare her. |
| 00:34:13 |
Fine. |
| 00:34:16 |
I shall let her go this time... |
| 00:34:19 |
but I do this for |
| 00:34:25 |
You may rise. |
| 00:34:39 |
I am not trying to make |
| 00:34:41 |
But before the Festival... |
| 00:34:42 |
nothing untoward must |
| 00:35:10 |
Leave me. |
| 00:36:21 |
I have made the discovery... |
| 00:36:22 |
Your Majesty requested. |
| 00:36:30 |
The new ingredient |
| 00:36:31 |
is a black fungus from Persia. |
| 00:36:33 |
Two grams a day... |
| 00:36:34 |
over a few months... |
| 00:36:36 |
will cause a person |
| 00:36:49 |
Thank you. |
| 00:36:57 |
I did not do this for money. |
| 00:36:59 |
Then why did you? |
| 00:37:01 |
The Empress may think... |
| 00:37:02 |
that I came... |
| 00:37:03 |
because of the generous reward... |
| 00:37:09 |
but I came... |
| 00:37:11 |
for my own reasons. |
| 00:37:15 |
I hate this man. |
| 00:37:16 |
Only Your Majesty is |
| 00:37:19 |
I see that your face is branded. |
| 00:37:21 |
Why were you in jail? |
| 00:37:23 |
Your Majesty... |
| 00:37:25 |
forgive my silence on this subject. |
| 00:37:28 |
Farewell. |
| 00:38:23 |
Your Highness, Prince Wan. |
| 00:38:25 |
The Empress has already retired. |
| 00:39:06 |
Who are you? |
| 00:40:13 |
Father. |
| 00:40:14 |
Your Majesty. |
| 00:40:15 |
This is the wife |
| 00:40:18 |
Father... |
| 00:40:19 |
this woman broke in |
| 00:40:27 |
Raise your head. |
| 00:40:40 |
Loosen the ties! |
| 00:40:45 |
Leave us! |
| 00:40:50 |
Wan... |
| 00:40:52 |
you must never speak of |
| 00:40:56 |
Remember! |
| 00:41:09 |
You may rise. |
| 00:41:25 |
It has been twenty-five years. |
| 00:41:28 |
I thought... |
| 00:41:30 |
that I would never see you again. |
| 00:41:38 |
And you married the Imperial Doctor! |
| 00:41:47 |
At the time you were |
| 00:41:50 |
plotting day and night |
| 00:41:52 |
You flattered the King of Liang... |
| 00:41:55 |
into letting you marry his daughter. |
| 00:41:57 |
You planned meticulously to have |
| 00:42:00 |
Later... |
| 00:42:02 |
I alone managed to escape. |
| 00:42:04 |
Far from home, I almost died. |
| 00:42:07 |
It was the doctor who saved me. |
| 00:42:09 |
Who then, do you think |
| 00:42:20 |
Why did you come? |
| 00:42:22 |
I came to see my son. |
| 00:42:25 |
I suppose the Empress invited you. |
| 00:42:27 |
I have never even met the Empress. |
| 00:42:54 |
What I owe you... |
| 00:42:57 |
I shall repay in full. |
| 00:42:59 |
The Imperial Doctor... |
| 00:43:02 |
has served us for many years... |
| 00:43:04 |
with impeccable conduct, |
| 00:43:07 |
He is promoted |
| 00:43:10 |
also Commander of Chariots. |
| 00:43:12 |
He will depart immediately... |
| 00:43:15 |
with his daughter, Chan. |
| 00:43:16 |
This is the order of His Majesty. |
| 00:43:18 |
We thank His Majesty |
| 00:43:28 |
Your humble servant |
| 00:43:37 |
Before I leave... |
| 00:43:39 |
I beg to serve Your Majesty |
| 00:43:42 |
How long have you been with me? |
| 00:43:44 |
Your Majesty... |
| 00:43:45 |
it has been fifteen years. |
| 00:43:47 |
If I have ever wronged you... |
| 00:43:51 |
please forgive me. |
| 00:43:53 |
Your Majesty must |
| 00:43:55 |
Your servant would |
| 00:43:58 |
Your wife... |
| 00:44:01 |
is she well? |
| 00:44:05 |
She is. |
| 00:44:06 |
She will accompany you |
| 00:44:10 |
Your Majesty is too considerate. |
| 00:44:12 |
My gratitude is without bounds. |
| 00:44:15 |
As for the Empress's medicine... |
| 00:44:17 |
I have prepared |
| 00:44:21 |
Your Majesty need only |
| 00:44:23 |
to heat up each dose as necessary. |
| 00:45:10 |
Your consort kneels |
| 00:45:14 |
Leave us. |
| 00:45:23 |
I came to pay respects to the |
| 00:45:27 |
Today is the anniversary of her death. |
| 00:45:45 |
For over twenty years this portrait |
| 00:45:50 |
In your heart... |
| 00:45:53 |
there is only one woman. |
| 00:46:03 |
What have you come to say? |
| 00:46:07 |
I hear... |
| 00:46:08 |
that an assassin was captured |
| 00:46:11 |
and the Emperor spent a long time |
| 00:46:15 |
Is anything wrong with that? |
| 00:46:18 |
Of course not. |
| 00:46:21 |
I shall take my leave now. |
| 00:46:34 |
His Highness, Prince Jai arrives. |
| 00:46:36 |
Leave us, all of you. |
| 00:46:47 |
Mother. |
| 00:46:50 |
I have been taking your father's |
| 00:46:53 |
Ten days ago... |
| 00:46:54 |
he suddenly changed the formula... |
| 00:46:59 |
and this new ingredient was added. |
| 00:47:14 |
Mother was taken ill yesterday. |
| 00:47:16 |
Was it because of this? |
| 00:47:24 |
Why is Father doing this to you? |
| 00:47:28 |
Jai... |
| 00:47:35 |
after the Chrysanthemum Festival... |
| 00:47:37 |
I shall tell you the whole truth. |
| 00:47:50 |
Each day, in front of your father... |
| 00:47:52 |
I have to feign ignorance. |
| 00:47:56 |
Every two hours... |
| 00:47:58 |
I swallow this poison without protest. |
| 00:48:04 |
Nobody knows what is happening. |
| 00:48:09 |
I shall die exactly as your |
| 00:48:16 |
but I refuse |
| 00:48:26 |
On the night of the Festival... |
| 00:48:29 |
I shall put an end to all of this. |
| 00:48:35 |
Do my brothers know? |
| 00:48:38 |
No. |
| 00:48:44 |
If I had not come back... |
| 00:48:46 |
would Mother have gone ahead? |
| 00:48:48 |
Yes. |
| 00:48:52 |
Then why did you tell me? |
| 00:48:56 |
Because I want you to be Emperor. |
| 00:49:06 |
Are you going to kill Father? |
| 00:49:09 |
I shall force him to abdicate... |
| 00:49:12 |
but it is not my intention |
| 00:49:16 |
Mother... |
| 00:49:17 |
a son cannot stand in rebellion |
| 00:49:21 |
Whatever the circumstances... |
| 00:49:22 |
he is still my father |
| 00:49:37 |
Jai... |
| 00:49:41 |
I know that this puts you |
| 00:49:45 |
You do not have to do anything |
| 00:49:57 |
Prayers in the Spring... |
| 00:49:59 |
Tranquility in the Fall... |
| 00:50:01 |
The earth yields. |
| 00:50:03 |
It is the Hour of the Monkey. |
| 00:50:23 |
Mother. |
| 00:51:02 |
Your son will help you. |
| 00:51:11 |
You will never |
| 00:52:33 |
His Highness, |
| 00:52:36 |
Mother summoned me. |
| 00:52:38 |
Is anything the matter? |
| 00:52:46 |
Please leave us. |
| 00:52:54 |
I have made a new robe for you... |
| 00:52:55 |
different from the one last year. |
| 00:53:00 |
I have added |
| 00:53:06 |
What does this mean? |
| 00:53:10 |
It will protect you from harm. |
| 00:53:12 |
Protect me? |
| 00:53:15 |
What exactly are you plotting? |
| 00:53:18 |
Wan... |
| 00:53:21 |
on the night of the |
| 00:53:22 |
you must wear this. |
| 00:53:24 |
I will not wear it. |
| 00:53:27 |
You must. |
| 00:53:29 |
I refuse! |
| 00:53:33 |
I refuse. |
| 00:53:34 |
I refuse to wear it! |
| 00:53:46 |
What in Heaven's name |
| 00:55:34 |
Your Highness! |
| 00:55:49 |
I received the message... |
| 00:55:51 |
that Your Highness was coming... |
| 00:55:53 |
and have been waiting up all night. |
| 00:55:56 |
I came here... |
| 00:55:57 |
to ask you something. |
| 00:56:00 |
Why was your mother at the Palace? |
| 00:56:03 |
She came to see me. |
| 00:56:04 |
Had she visited you before? |
| 00:56:06 |
No. Why? |
| 00:56:11 |
Do not keep anything from me. |
| 00:56:12 |
Never! |
| 00:56:13 |
I always tell Your Highness |
| 00:56:18 |
Do you know why the Empress |
| 00:56:20 |
I hear they are for the Festival. |
| 00:56:23 |
The eunuch in charge of weaving |
| 00:56:28 |
Ten thousand? |
| 00:56:33 |
Her Majesty had them all |
| 00:56:36 |
Of the State Army? |
| 00:56:37 |
That's right. |
| 00:56:39 |
How did you know? |
| 00:56:41 |
I heard my father mention it. |
| 00:56:44 |
What else do you know? |
| 00:56:45 |
Nothing. |
| 00:56:59 |
Chan. |
| 00:57:01 |
Chan. |
| 00:57:02 |
My mother is coming. Please hide! |
| 00:57:03 |
Something is about |
| 00:57:06 |
I must go back. |
| 00:57:09 |
Something terrible... |
| 00:57:16 |
Your servant kneels |
| 00:57:20 |
Your Highness, may I present my wife. |
| 00:57:22 |
Quick! |
| 00:57:24 |
Kneel down, |
| 00:57:27 |
Leave! |
| 00:57:32 |
I said leave! |
| 00:57:33 |
How can you speak |
| 00:57:37 |
Mom, this is the Crown Prince! |
| 00:57:39 |
Leave now! Go! |
| 00:57:44 |
Please forgive her. |
| 00:57:50 |
Your Highness... |
| 00:57:52 |
please forgive her. |
| 00:57:54 |
Please forgive her. |
| 00:58:03 |
I was such a fool. |
| 00:58:05 |
I should never have |
| 00:58:08 |
His Highness's feelings |
| 00:58:10 |
The two of you... |
| 00:58:12 |
can never be together. |
| 00:58:13 |
But why? |
| 00:58:14 |
No reason. |
| 00:58:16 |
You must never see him again. |
| 00:58:19 |
Something terrible is going |
| 00:58:21 |
Mom, I have to go and find him. |
| 00:58:23 |
You dare! |
| 00:58:28 |
What is going on? |
| 00:58:37 |
Chan, go outside. |
| 00:59:05 |
For more than ten years... |
| 00:59:08 |
I have never once asked |
| 00:59:14 |
What exactly have you been |
| 01:00:26 |
Where is Chan? |
| 01:00:27 |
Gone to the Palace! |
| 01:00:28 |
You fool! |
| 01:00:37 |
By royal command, |
| 01:00:39 |
Who are you? |
| 01:00:44 |
Let's go! |
| 01:00:55 |
Let's go! |
| 01:01:42 |
You must be hiding something |
| 01:01:45 |
Quick! Go and save our daughter! |
| 01:01:50 |
No! |
| 01:02:58 |
His Highness |
| 01:03:16 |
When will you make your move? |
| 01:03:19 |
So you know. |
| 01:03:23 |
How did you find out? |
| 01:03:25 |
It is not your concern. |
| 01:03:26 |
When do you plan to make your move? |
| 01:03:38 |
The night of the |
| 01:03:48 |
What are you afraid of? |
| 01:03:49 |
This has nothing to do with you. |
| 01:03:50 |
How can it have nothing |
| 01:03:53 |
I am the Crown Prince. |
| 01:03:54 |
The entire country is going |
| 01:04:01 |
So what if you did? |
| 01:04:11 |
You lunatic! |
| 01:04:13 |
You raving lunatic! |
| 01:04:16 |
Father is right. |
| 01:04:17 |
You do need to take his medicine |
| 01:04:21 |
Get out! |
| 01:04:22 |
If you proceed |
| 01:04:24 |
you are asking me to die. |
| 01:04:28 |
All you ever wanted |
| 01:04:35 |
Yes... |
| 01:04:37 |
I want you to die. |
| 01:05:11 |
Wan! |
| 01:05:13 |
Wan! |
| 01:05:15 |
Wan! |
| 01:05:16 |
Help! |
| 01:05:22 |
Your Majesty, |
| 01:05:25 |
His Highness will recover. |
| 01:06:00 |
You must be hiding |
| 01:06:04 |
Why are you doing this? |
| 01:06:08 |
I have no choice. |
| 01:06:12 |
I beg you... |
| 01:06:15 |
please stop... |
| 01:06:18 |
for your own good. |
| 01:06:21 |
I know... |
| 01:06:27 |
but I cannot do as you say. |
| 01:06:37 |
Wan. |
| 01:06:40 |
Your father is arriving any moment. |
| 01:08:34 |
The secret between the two of you... |
| 01:08:37 |
has been known to me for some time. |
| 01:08:40 |
Ever since... |
| 01:08:43 |
night after night... |
| 01:08:45 |
I have lain in bed with my eyes open. |
| 01:08:51 |
Have you ever considered |
| 01:08:56 |
I do not blame you. |
| 01:08:58 |
I know... |
| 01:09:00 |
it was she who seduced you. |
| 01:09:37 |
Father. |
| 01:10:06 |
Where is your mother? |
| 01:10:09 |
Your Majesty, Mother is dressing. |
| 01:10:11 |
I shall go and see if she is ready. |
| 01:10:36 |
These berries... |
| 01:10:38 |
were your birth mother's favorite. |
| 01:10:41 |
Even after the Festival... |
| 01:10:43 |
she would wear them for a few days... |
| 01:10:45 |
to ward off evil spirits. |
| 01:10:48 |
Yes. |
| 01:10:49 |
Each year, on this day... |
| 01:10:52 |
you too should wear... |
| 01:10:54 |
a twig of berries... |
| 01:10:56 |
to honor the memory of |
| 01:10:58 |
I shall not forget, Father. |
| 01:12:06 |
His Highness! |
| 01:12:11 |
His Highness, Prince Jai arrives! |
| 01:12:21 |
Mother... |
| 01:12:25 |
what happened with Wan? |
| 01:12:28 |
He knows everything. |
| 01:12:36 |
Will he tell? |
| 01:12:53 |
The chrysanthemums are all ready. |
| 01:12:57 |
They deserve to bloom once. |
| 01:13:02 |
I understand... |
| 01:13:10 |
Jai. |
| 01:13:30 |
Go then. |
| 01:15:38 |
By order of the Commanding Officer: |
| 01:15:40 |
To reward your hard work... |
| 01:15:42 |
a banquet has been prepared. |
| 01:15:43 |
While at your feast... |
| 01:15:44 |
your duties will be assumed by |
| 01:15:47 |
Orders received. |
| 01:17:27 |
Mom, what is going on? |
| 01:17:29 |
The Emperor wants to |
| 01:17:31 |
Why? |
| 01:17:32 |
Where is Dad? |
| 01:17:45 |
The Empress sent help. |
| 01:17:47 |
Please, this way. |
| 01:18:00 |
Your Majesties - Emperor, |
| 01:18:01 |
the Imperial Doctor's |
| 01:18:04 |
Let them come. |
| 01:18:14 |
So it was you who defended them. |
| 01:18:23 |
Leave us. |
| 01:18:50 |
Your Majesty, |
| 01:18:54 |
It was beneath contempt... |
| 01:18:56 |
to attack us under |
| 01:18:59 |
Once again you have deceived me. |
| 01:19:02 |
You coward and hypocrite... |
| 01:19:09 |
my daughter and I stand before you. |
| 01:19:12 |
Go ahead, kill us! |
| 01:19:14 |
You should not have worked |
| 01:19:17 |
You brought this upon them. |
| 01:19:20 |
And my husband and daughter? |
| 01:19:22 |
They knew nothing about me! |
| 01:19:24 |
But they knew far too much about me. |
| 01:19:29 |
Father... |
| 01:19:31 |
who is she? |
| 01:19:32 |
Wan! |
| 01:19:32 |
Wan... |
| 01:19:35 |
I shall tell you who she is. |
| 01:19:36 |
Your Majesty! |
| 01:19:39 |
She is the woman in the portrait. |
| 01:19:40 |
Empress! |
| 01:19:42 |
Your father's first wife... |
| 01:19:45 |
your birth mother. |
| 01:19:51 |
Father... |
| 01:19:54 |
is this true? |
| 01:20:01 |
Yes... |
| 01:20:06 |
it is true. |
| 01:20:13 |
Now are you satisfied? |
| 01:20:16 |
Yes. |
| 01:20:17 |
I wanted him to know... |
| 01:20:19 |
what kind of a person |
| 01:20:22 |
Didn't you say she died |
| 01:20:52 |
Chan! |
| 01:20:53 |
Chan! |
| 01:20:59 |
Mother... |
| 01:21:02 |
why did you have to tell us? |
| 01:21:14 |
Chan! |
| 01:21:22 |
Chan! |
| 01:21:26 |
Chan! |
| 01:23:24 |
What else is there up your sleeve? |
| 01:23:26 |
You will find out soon. |
| 01:23:31 |
Yu! |
| 01:23:32 |
Mother... |
| 01:23:33 |
this is now out of your hands! |
| 01:23:36 |
Your shameful incestuous affair... |
| 01:23:37 |
you think I don't know? |
| 01:23:39 |
You think I am still a child? |
| 01:23:41 |
I know what you and |
| 01:23:45 |
I am acting first! |
| 01:23:48 |
Wan! |
| 01:23:51 |
Wan! |
| 01:23:55 |
Have you gone mad? |
| 01:23:56 |
I am not mad! |
| 01:23:58 |
Abdicate immediately |
| 01:24:01 |
I know you have never liked me. |
| 01:24:05 |
Who has ever cared about me? |
| 01:24:07 |
Who has ever thought about me? |
| 01:24:10 |
He is your older brother! |
| 01:24:13 |
And I want to kill him! |
| 01:24:15 |
I hate him! |
| 01:24:17 |
I hate you all! |
| 01:25:17 |
I... I... I am so sorry. |
| 01:28:02 |
Attack! |
| 01:29:23 |
Halt! |
| 01:30:07 |
Attack! |
| 01:31:18 |
Throw! |
| 01:31:23 |
Shields up! |
| 01:31:28 |
Shields up! |
| 01:31:31 |
Shields up! |
| 01:31:36 |
Forward! |
| 01:31:38 |
Forward! |
| 01:31:56 |
Attack! |
| 01:32:13 |
Do not harm Prince Jai! |
| 01:32:17 |
Do not harm Prince Jai! |
| 01:33:19 |
Throw! |
| 01:33:22 |
Catch! |
| 01:33:26 |
Ready! |
| 01:33:28 |
Ready! |
| 01:33:29 |
Ready! |
| 01:33:30 |
Ready! |
| 01:33:31 |
Ready! |
| 01:33:32 |
Ready! |
| 01:33:33 |
Ready! |
| 01:33:35 |
Ready! |
| 01:33:36 |
Ready! |
| 01:33:38 |
Shoot! |
| 01:34:09 |
Hold the gates! |
| 01:36:23 |
Take him alive! |
| 01:38:46 |
Kneel! |
| 01:38:55 |
Rise! |
| 01:39:01 |
You took the life |
| 01:39:05 |
He told me everything... |
| 01:39:08 |
about your pitiful coup. |
| 01:39:10 |
I thought he would. |
| 01:39:20 |
You are truly insane. |
| 01:40:15 |
Execute! |
| 01:42:43 |
I had a plan. |
| 01:42:46 |
After the Chrysanthemum Festival... |
| 01:42:48 |
I was going to remove |
| 01:42:50 |
and appoint you as my heir. |
| 01:42:55 |
I had told you before... |
| 01:42:57 |
what I do not give you... |
| 01:43:00 |
you must never take by force. |
| 01:43:05 |
The Imperial Flag... |
| 01:43:07 |
was a final warning to you. |
| 01:43:11 |
I always knew... |
| 01:43:13 |
that this was not a |
| 01:43:17 |
Kill me, or dismember me... |
| 01:43:19 |
you will do as you wish... |
| 01:43:22 |
but I need you to know, Father... |
| 01:43:24 |
that I did not rebel... |
| 01:43:26 |
for the sake of the crown. |
| 01:43:31 |
I did it for the sake of my mother. |
| 01:43:43 |
Heaven, earth, and man unite. |
| 01:43:46 |
Fortune and prosperity to all... |
| 01:43:49 |
Midnight... |
| 01:43:50 |
The Hour of the Rat. |
| 01:43:51 |
The Chrysanthemum Festival begins. |
| 01:44:21 |
The phoenix spreads its wings. |
| 01:44:26 |
Sun and moon shine bright. |
| 01:44:30 |
The four seas rise. |
| 01:44:34 |
Frontiers push back. |
| 01:44:41 |
Humanity, wisdom, trust... |
| 01:44:45 |
Ritual, righteousness, loyalty... |
| 01:44:49 |
Deep virtue pervades. |
| 01:44:53 |
Father to son... Wise kings all. |
| 01:45:00 |
Follow the Heavens' way. |
| 01:45:05 |
Peace and glory above... |
| 01:45:11 |
Rain down... |
| 01:45:17 |
On all nations below. |
| 01:45:23 |
Your servant kneels before the Empress. |
| 01:45:25 |
Your Majesty's medicine |
| 01:45:34 |
What is the punishment... |
| 01:45:37 |
for a prince in rebellion? |
| 01:45:40 |
Your Majesty - |
| 01:45:41 |
to be torn apart by five horses. |
| 01:45:44 |
You hear ? |
| 01:45:46 |
I... |
| 01:45:48 |
is prepared to spare you... |
| 01:45:52 |
if you agree to one thing. |
| 01:45:55 |
From now on... |
| 01:45:59 |
every day... |
| 01:46:01 |
you will personally serve |
| 01:47:04 |
Mother... |
| 01:47:06 |
your son has failed you. |
| 01:47:09 |
Please forgive me. |
