That is quite astonishing.

No wonder they were

looking at me horrified.

That lady over there.

Who is she?

It's Her Royal Highness

the Queen Consort.

That makes her...

Oh!

The Chief Secretary insisted upon

avoiding her at all costs.

The morning conference was

postponed for three days.

But the individual audiences

cannot be delayed any more.

You'll only need three phrases

during the individual meetings.

"Do as you see fit."

"Next."

"Bring him in."

Go on.

Do as you see fit.

I'm sorry.

Wretch!

Have you not heard

His Majesty's voice?

Keep it low and solemn.

As you see fit.

Do as you see fit.

Your grace is immeasurable.

Bring in the next.

Morning conference is

vitally important.

It is where high-ranking

officials gather

to hear the King's decrees.

Mistakes will not go unnoticed.

Yes, sir.

First row on the left,

two down from the left

is Ha, the Tax Minister.

For the sake of power, he will

happily walk into a manure tub.

Next to him is Kim Jong-se,

the Justice Minister.

He is a greedy and

cruel character,

who will chase his enemies

to the end of days.

The man who always agrees

with the Justice Minister is

Inspector General,

Lee Yun-sang.

All that he cares about

is maintaining his position.

At the rightmost of

the first row is

Park Chung-seo,

the Minister of Interior.

You must remember him.

Don't you see what

the King is trying to do?

The King is giving us

Yu Jeong-ho

to divert our attention

from issues

such as troop dispatch or

the uniform land tax law.

Is it not the truth?

His eyes are as sharp as a hawk's

and his character as venomous as a viper's.

From this moment on,

you shall address me and the Chief Eunuch

the way you would a servant.

Sir?

Remember,

the Court has eyes and

ears everywhere.

What you have in front of you

is the royal decree to be passed down

at the conference tomorrow.

Read it out loud, Your Majesty.

I command my trusted council

Tax Minister shall draw a bill to...

Stop!

His Majesty is a king,

not a storyteller from

the market place.

Low and solemnly.

Like a king.

I command my trusted council.

Tax Minister.

Draw up a bill to restore

the uniform land tax law.

Minister of Construction.

Stop the palace renovation

immediately.

How can you justify

renovating the palace

at the cost of my good people?

Minister of Justice.

I shall not question the wrongdoings

of Magistrate Yu Jeong-ho.

All treason must be dealt

with the strictest law.

But the law must not be

used to punish the innocent.

I command my trusted council.

Those that disturb the peace of the Court

by stirring up groundless accusations

shall be dealt as strictly

as those guilty of treason.
