00:00:01I'm with a great beard out of the river.
00:00:05Wow, looks like I caught a big one today.
00:00:07Whoa, what on earth is this?
00:00:12Young lady, just take me back and you'll have endless wealth and glory.
00:00:18Oh my God, is this the legendary Carp Spirit?
00:00:25Help! I said, take me back to the palace, not send me to meet the Reaper!
00:00:33Oh no, he wasn't a Carp Spirit after all.
00:00:50Hey, old man, don't die on me!
00:01:04Still unconscious? Forgive me!
00:01:10The Reaper.
00:01:13Turns out it's a woman.
00:01:17I'm sorry, old man. I thought you were a river spirit.
00:01:19From now on, I will never listen to those customers spouting nonsense.
00:01:27I am no spirit, but I am just as powerful.
00:01:33Oh? Anyone can brag.
00:01:36Who exactly are you, old man?
00:01:41Truth be told, I am the reigning Emperor.
00:01:45I had an accident traveling incognito, fell into the river, and drifted all night.
00:01:50Luckily, you fished me out, young lady.
00:01:52You did a great service saving my life.
00:01:55As long as you escort me back, you can have any reward you desire.
00:01:58I can even make you a princess if you wish.
00:02:07Has this guy lost his mind from the water?
00:02:10My grandfather was like this in his later years, too.
00:02:13One minute he claimed to be a god, and the next he said he was a fish.
00:02:17For old folks like him, I know exactly what to do.
00:02:20You just have to humor them.
00:02:27Yes, your majesty.
00:02:29You're soaked through.
00:02:30Do you want to change clothes first?
00:02:38Right.
00:02:40Help me get changed first, then summon the Imperial Physician.
00:02:47Why does my face hurt this much?
00:03:06Uncle Simon, this old man fell in the river.
00:03:08Help him change into something dry, and lend him some clothes.
00:03:38Tell her to come in and help me dress.
00:03:43You shameless old man!
00:03:45Asking an unmarried young woman to dress you?
00:03:49I'll teach you a lesson!
00:03:51Calm down, Uncle Simon.
00:03:52He's clearly not in his right mind.
00:03:57Palace maids have always dressed me.
00:04:00How does that make me shameless?
00:04:03Never mind.
00:04:04I won't argue with you.
00:04:06I won't argue with you.
00:04:21Maid, when will you take me back?
00:04:23Where do you live?
00:04:25The capital!
00:04:26What?
00:04:27Sir, do you even know how far the capital is from here?
00:04:31Then take me to the city.
00:04:34How do we get there?
00:04:36I wouldn't know.
00:04:37I have always traveled by carriage.
00:04:40This old man has really lost his mind.
00:04:48Goodman, let us eat first.
00:04:50We can talk about getting you home later.
00:04:55Besides catching fish, I am also great at cooking them.
00:05:10Smells delicious.
00:05:11Erica, you have not made fish soup in ages.
00:05:13You must be in a good mood today.
00:05:15I pulled a drowning old man from the river today.
00:05:18I made this to warm him up.
00:05:19He is totally confused.
00:05:21He cannot even remember his name or home.
00:05:29Avert your eyes!
00:05:31How dare you stare at me!
00:05:50Have you heard?
00:05:51Erica took in an old man claiming he's the emperor.
00:05:55He has definitely lost his mind.
00:06:00Guys, have you heard anything about a missing old man lately?
00:06:06Are you sure he is not faking it just to freeload food off you?
00:06:11Just let him be.
00:06:12Feeding him will not make us go broke.
00:06:18These wooden boards are too hard.
00:06:21My back is killing me.
00:06:25He snores louder than thunder.
00:06:28How is anyone supposed to sleep?
00:06:31This fish and tofu stew tastes even better than the food in the palace.
00:06:35When I return to the palace, I will make you the head royal chef.
00:06:38Yeah, right.
00:06:39Returning to the palace?
00:06:40I think you're losing your mind.
00:06:42He is totally out of his mind.
00:06:44Stop arguing with him.
00:06:45How dare you insult me!
00:06:53I gradually realize the old man might not be crazy.
00:06:57What he said could be true.
00:07:12What would you two like to eat?
00:07:15We heard.
00:07:16You took in a drowning old man recently.
00:07:27You are looking for him?
00:07:33You are...
00:07:38Master, we are here to take you home.
00:07:41There are too many eyes out here.
00:07:43Please keep quiet for now.
00:07:53These two are definitely hiding something.
00:08:02No need to be so formal, Eric.
00:08:05You see?
00:08:08I was telling the truth.
00:08:12Are they really your family?
00:08:14Why do you look like you do not know them?
00:08:18I command thousands of elite troops.
00:08:21I mean thousands of servants.
00:08:22How am I supposed to know all of them?
00:08:23These men must work for one of my sons.
00:08:25There is no mistake.
00:08:32Is he really the emperor?
00:08:36Our master is not right in the head.
00:08:38Just play along with him.
00:08:41I knew it.
00:08:42If he is the emperor,
00:08:44then I am the king of heaven.
00:08:46Master, it is getting late.
00:08:48Let's get going.
00:08:50It is already dark.
00:08:51You two must have traveled a long way.
00:08:53Eat something before you go.
00:08:56Let me tell you.
00:08:58If you pass this up,
00:08:59you will never find fish this delicious anywhere else.
00:09:13I told you it was delicious.
00:09:18Fair maid,
00:09:20you took such good care of our master.
00:09:22My master will surely reward you.
00:09:24Please come with us.
00:09:27Just take my boat.
00:09:28I'll take you there myself.
00:09:52I'll take you there myself.
00:09:52What?
00:09:53What are you doing?
00:09:55Forgive us.
00:09:56Old man,
00:09:56when you fell off the boat,
00:09:57we thought you died.
00:09:58Who knew you would be so hard to kill?
00:10:02This is regicide!
00:10:03Your entire lineage will be executed for this!
00:10:06Who is behind this?
00:10:07Hmm.
00:10:09Ignore him, Wayne.
00:10:11Tonight,
00:10:11we will silence every witness here.
00:10:13No one will ever know.
00:10:19Ferris, please do not be reckless.
00:10:21I'm just a fisherman.
00:10:23This has nothing to do with me.
00:10:26Please just let me go.
00:10:28That's the price for sticking your nose into this.
00:10:29You chose to take him in.
00:10:31Anyone who was involved in this mess isn't leaving here alive.
00:10:33Shame about your talent for cooking fish.
00:10:35If you were smart,
00:10:36you would have stayed out of this.
00:10:38Let her go!
00:10:40Stop threatening an innocent woman!
00:10:46We've been spotted!
00:10:47Kill them now!
00:10:53Damn it!
00:10:55The food was spiked!
00:10:59You drugged the food!
00:11:19Look who is talking about crooked ends!
00:11:22I am a legitimate business owner.
00:11:24Powerless commoners like us must have ways to defend ourselves.
00:11:30Erica,
00:11:31how did you figure out these two were up to no good?
00:11:37I have run my river stall for years.
00:11:39The docks are full of shady characters
00:11:41and I have seen all sorts of people.
00:11:42When they saw you,
00:11:43it was not relief I saw.
00:11:45Instead,
00:11:45they immediately gripped their weapons through their bags.
00:11:47A murderous look flashed in their eyes.
00:11:49Simon and I noticed
00:11:49something was wrong immediately.
00:11:51Once the food was ready,
00:11:52we secretly applied sleeping powder
00:11:53to the rims of their bowls
00:11:54and the tips of their chopsticks.
00:11:55So when we sat down to eat,
00:11:57they suspected nothing.
00:11:58After that,
00:11:59I volunteered to escort them home.
00:12:00But I was actually keeping watch.
00:12:02If we had been mistaken,
00:12:04we would have simply apologized to their master.
00:12:06But since we were right...
00:12:09Well,
00:12:09we just saved your life again.
00:12:11Will you make me a lord this time?
00:12:16They actually want me dead.
00:12:18They've tried to kill me again and again.
00:12:21How could I have been so blind?
00:12:24Hey,
00:12:24please do not cry.
00:12:25A man of your age should not cry.
00:12:27I was only joking earlier.
00:12:28You do not need to make me a lord.
00:12:30Of course you will be one.
00:12:31Once I deal with those traitors,
00:12:33I will not only make you a lord,
00:12:35but grant you a hereditary title.
00:12:37Save it for when we get back.
00:12:38You are rambling again.
00:12:46Let's see you escape now.
00:12:47When they wake up,
00:12:48we'll question them properly.
00:12:50It is useless.
00:12:51Anyone sent to kill me is ready to die.
00:12:53Once they wake up,
00:12:53if they cannot escape,
00:12:54they will kill themselves.
00:12:56What do we do?
00:12:57We finally caught them alive.
00:12:58We cannot just sit and watch them die.
00:13:00First,
00:13:00I must return to the capital
00:13:01and find the commander of the Imperial Guards.
00:13:04That man is fiercely loyal to me
00:13:05and would never betray me.
00:13:07Come on.
00:13:07You were pushed into the river
00:13:08right under his nose.
00:13:09How is he reliable?
00:13:10And quit talking like an emperor already.
00:13:12You are just inviting the assassins to kill us.
00:13:14Goodman,
00:13:14you had better change your name.
00:13:15They are in the shadows
00:13:16and we are in the open.
00:13:17We must be careful.
00:13:23Call me Arthur Crown then.
00:13:25Why bother with a fake name?
00:13:26Just call yourself the emperor.
00:13:28This old man is hopeless.
00:13:37They are dead.
00:13:39I was right,
00:13:40was I not?
00:13:41Once their mission failed,
00:13:42if they couldn't escape,
00:13:43they were as good as dead.
00:13:45Besides knowing one of them was Jason Cole,
00:13:47we have no idea who was trying to have you killed.
00:13:49There is no need to investigate.
00:13:51Those with the best claim to the throne
00:13:52are the most suspicious.
00:13:53One of my sons must be behind this.
00:13:55Prince Dylan and Prince Eden
00:13:56are both lords in the capital,
00:13:57where their power is deeply entrenched.
00:13:59Only Prince Ryan,
00:14:00my youngest son,
00:14:01was exiled to a remote thief long ago,
00:14:02which actually makes him the safest choice.
00:14:04I have made my decision.
00:14:05I'll go to my youngest son first.
00:14:07The waterway is faster.
00:14:08Since Uncle Simon is rowing,
00:14:10he can take us south together.
00:14:28Arthur,
00:14:29how can you be sure
00:14:30your youngest son
00:14:31is not harboring a grudge
00:14:32and plotting your murder?
00:14:34You did exile him
00:14:35to that distant place.
00:14:40You do not understand the situation.
00:14:42Security around me is airtight.
00:14:43Anyone who could infiltrate
00:14:45the Imperial Gods
00:14:45must have enormous power.
00:14:47Ryan has been at his fee for years.
00:14:49He lost such capabilities long ago.
00:14:52Besides,
00:14:52my youngest son
00:14:53has always been straightforward.
00:14:55He's too honest
00:14:56to scheme against anyone.
00:14:58There's no way he'd rebel.
00:15:01So you are just exploiting a decent man.
00:15:03He had no share
00:15:04in the wealth and glory,
00:15:04yet you seek him
00:15:05the moment you fall from grace.
00:15:20People say this place is lawless,
00:15:23full of ruthless criminals.
00:15:24Looking at it now,
00:15:26that is clearly not the case.
00:15:29This old man
00:15:30doesn't even know
00:15:31his own son's land.
00:15:37Excuse me,
00:15:38which way is Prince Ryan's estate?
00:15:40Are you here for justice
00:15:42or just for grain?
00:15:44What is the difference?
00:15:46If you seek justice,
00:15:48His Highness holds court
00:15:48for an hour every day
00:15:50specifically to receive petitions.
00:15:52If you need food and grain,
00:15:53register at the local office.
00:15:55Anyone living in this district
00:15:56can receive rations
00:15:57for their family,
00:15:58along with seeds
00:15:59for their crops.
00:16:00Judging by how you talk,
00:16:01Prince Ryan really seems
00:16:02like a kind man.
00:16:05You must be from out of town
00:16:07if you have not heard
00:16:08of Prince Ryan.
00:16:10His Highness is the Emperor's own son
00:16:12and has been our great savior.
00:16:14Yes,
00:16:14every household
00:16:15has an altar
00:16:16to pray for him.
00:16:18We pray for his health
00:16:19and for his long life
00:16:20so that he may keep
00:16:22the people of this region
00:16:23safe and sound.
00:16:24I have not even earned
00:16:26that much respect,
00:16:26but this ungrateful son of mine
00:16:28already has.
00:16:28They even built altars for him.
00:16:58Are you visiting?
00:17:00from out of town?
00:17:02Goodman,
00:17:02we are here to find
00:17:03Prince Ryan.
00:17:04This gentleman
00:17:05is a distant relative
00:17:06of the prince.
00:17:07We have come to seek his help.
00:17:08Prince Ryan?
00:17:09He's a really great man.
00:17:10He spent years building canals
00:17:12and improving the farmland.
00:17:13He transformed this barren wasteland
00:17:15into a land of abundance.
00:17:16He certainly did.
00:17:18He reformed the local government
00:17:19and kept the law in check.
00:17:21Life is much better for us now.
00:17:23We are all grateful
00:17:23for the grace of the prince
00:17:24and his father,
00:17:25our emperor.
00:17:28Prince Ryan,
00:17:29my long forgotten son.
00:17:32If you head straight
00:17:33to his estate,
00:17:34you might miss him.
00:17:35At this hour,
00:17:36he's always in the fields.
00:17:37Just follow this road ahead.
00:17:39He is at the largest rice field.
00:17:58Which one is Prince Ryan?
00:18:08I expected someone much older.
00:18:11He is clearly
00:18:11a handsome young man.
00:18:26Father.
00:18:48You both have shown great honor.
00:18:51You saved my father's life time and again.
00:18:53Words cannot express my gratitude.
00:18:57Please accept my bow.
00:18:58You are too kind, your highness.
00:18:59Now that we've brought him safely,
00:19:01Uncle Simon and I are done.
00:19:03We'll leave tomorrow.
00:19:14You cannot leave.
00:19:15I will take you to the capital
00:19:17and make you a princess.
00:19:28Uh...
00:19:30So comfortable.
00:19:31I have spent most of my life on the river.
00:19:33I am just a rough boatman
00:19:34always braving the wind and rain.
00:19:36I never expected to see the day
00:19:38I could live like a wealthy man
00:19:39with servants waiting on me.
00:19:47The emperor is super paranoid right now.
00:19:50He trusts no one.
00:19:51Except us two.
00:19:53So Prince Ryan has to treat us well.
00:19:58I recently introduced this new crop variety.
00:20:00This year's harvest will definitely double.
00:20:03The yield is high and the grain is excellent.
00:20:06Excellent.
00:20:07Feeding the people shows true leadership.
00:20:12And repaying what you owe is just the right thing to do.
00:20:15You have three days to return the farmer's money
00:20:17or face severe punishment.
00:20:19You are incredibly wise, your highness.
00:20:21You're a truly fair lord.
00:20:22He handles cases fairly and carefully.
00:20:25Very methodical.
00:20:27My calm, humble son, Prince Ryan
00:20:31has actually achieved such great things here in this remote land.
00:20:38I completely misjudged him before.
00:20:48Erica, add more chili peppers.
00:20:51Well, I absolutely love your bold local dishes.
00:20:55They are far better than palace feasts.
00:20:58You got it.
00:20:58Just wait and see.
00:20:59I guarantee it will make you sweat.
00:21:08What are the prince and that man doing?
00:21:11Look away.
00:21:11Pretend you saw nothing.
00:21:16Erica, just look at this scene.
00:21:18The father is peeling garlic.
00:21:20The son is chopping wood.
00:21:22And the wife is cooking.
00:21:24You three look just like a family.
00:21:32Uncle Simon, stop talking nonsense.
00:21:34His highness is royalty.
00:21:35I am just an ordinary fisher.
00:21:37We belong to different worlds.
00:21:40If word of this gets out,
00:21:42we could lose our heads.
00:22:02Sigh.
00:22:03Why has my escort not arrived yet?
00:22:06Assassins keep coming in waves.
00:22:08I am going to die out here sooner or later.
00:22:20Kill them all!
00:22:21Leave no one alive!
00:22:24Leave my father alone!
00:22:37Protect me!
00:22:48Father!
00:22:49Go now!
00:22:50You ask for death!
00:23:00Fall back!
00:23:10Ryan, my dear son!
00:23:13Are you hurt?
00:23:14I am fine.
00:23:17As long as you are safe, father.
00:23:36My son, your life is too precious.
00:23:38How could you risk yourself like this?
00:23:42Quickly, send someone else to protect me.
00:23:51Father, your life is the one that truly matters.
00:23:53As your son and your subject, I would gladly give my life for you.
00:23:56Nonsense! Stop talking about dying!
00:23:58You will rule the Empire one day!
00:24:00How can you just die?!
00:24:08I...
00:24:09I will take my leave now.
00:24:18Sigh.
00:24:19What a blockhead. Shouldn't he swear his loyalty right now and at least pretend to decline?
00:24:24No wonder he has been stuck in this wasteland and forgotten by everyone all these years.
00:24:35Erika...
00:24:35For the past few days, I have been meaning to ask you.
00:24:39Do you want to be a princess or do you want to be my daughter-in-law?
00:24:44So his majesty actually heard what Uncle Simon said that day?
00:24:49No offense, your majesty, but I have no desire to live a life full of constant fear.
00:24:54If you truly wish to reward me, just give me some food and money. I would rather live a free
00:24:58and easy life.
00:25:08You make a fair point. If you actually became my daughter-in-law, it would be highly improper to have
00:25:14you cook fish for me every day.
00:25:20He is always thinking about his next meal. What a gluttonous old man.
00:25:33If anyone dares to harm our prince, we will fight them to the death.
00:25:36That is right! Protect the prince and protect the emperor! Charge!
00:25:41Charge!
00:25:57With a defense like this, not even a single fly could get through.
00:26:14After two weeks of such a massive search, the imperial escort has finally arrived.
00:26:30Your majesty, now that you are safe, I can finally rest in peace.
00:26:39That is enough. Stop all this weeping.
00:26:43If anyone deserves thanks, it's Erica. Without her, I'd be dead ten times over.
00:26:59Thank you for saving the life of the emperor. I shall never forget your kindness.
00:27:02It was nothing. Please stand up, Commander Wood.
00:27:19Listen to my decree. We return to the capital at once.
00:27:28Ryan!
00:27:31You shall return with me.
00:27:36I obey your command, Father.
00:27:43Your Highness!
00:27:45Please return to us soon.
00:27:48We cannot bear to see you leave!
00:27:57My fellow citizens, do not be sad.
00:28:01I will send an official of great integrity.
00:28:03I'll send an upright official who will treat everyone like family.
00:28:09As for Prince Ryan, the one you all admire, one thief is too small for his ambitions.
00:28:15I will entrust him with far greater duties.
00:28:19I hope he will not fail my expectations.
00:28:29It seems Prince Ryan is destined for greatness.
00:28:50It seems Prince Ryan is destined for greatness.
00:28:57I remember our first few days at the estate of Prince Ryan.
00:29:00That blockhead always came to me for advice on dealing with his father.
00:29:12He is your own father. How can you not know his temper and preferences?
00:29:22He is the Supreme Emperor.
00:29:24I, however, am just a neglected Prince.
00:29:29I hardly saw my father's face growing up.
00:29:33But I notice how you interact with him, Erica, speaking so freely.
00:29:39Even Prince Dylan and Prince Eden, his favorites, never dare to be so casual in the presence of our father.
00:29:44Do you have a secret for this?
00:29:48Not a secret at all.
00:29:50I just treat the Emperor like any ordinary elder.
00:29:53Think of how commoners treat the elders in their family.
00:29:56And I treat the Emperor the same way.
00:30:00I understand now.
00:30:11Ryan, what are you doing?
00:30:13When a father is in danger, a son belongs by his side to protect him.
00:30:26Having the trust and gratitude of the Emperor and his heir.
00:30:29A life of luxury is surely guaranteed.
00:30:32They might even grant you the title of the official Imperial Fisher.
00:30:39Hehehehehe.
00:30:40Hehehehehehehe.
00:30:54Hehehehehehehe.
00:30:56Your majesty!
00:31:04Why the panic?
00:31:07Prince Dylan has rebelled.
00:31:09The rebel forces have blocked every path to the capital.
00:31:12Prince Eden has proclaimed himself king.
00:31:21You treacherous sons!
00:31:23While I was away, is this how you guard the capital for me?
00:31:31I deserve death.
00:31:34Since the emperor was missing in the river, the factions in court have already splintered.
00:31:38Prince Dylan intends to seize the throne, while Prince Eden waits to profit from the chaos.
00:31:47A foolish dream!
00:31:49Those ungrateful and arrogant sons!
00:31:52Do they think that my empire can be toppled so easily?
00:31:59Your majesty, I anticipated this.
00:32:02I took the tiger tally from the capital.
00:32:04Once we escape this place, we can summon the troops to crush the rebellion.
00:32:09Good.
00:32:10Good.
00:32:11Where is the nearest army?
00:32:13The Mountain City Army is three days away.
00:32:17Father, the rebels of Prince Dylan have sealed every road out of this fief.
00:32:21We cannot leave by land.
00:32:23Our only chance is to take the river.
00:32:27However.
00:32:28However what?
00:32:29The imperial guards are all landlubbers from the capital.
00:32:31They only know how to fight on land.
00:32:33None of them can handle a boat.
00:32:35If we are caught on the river, we will.
00:32:42Why are you all staring at me?
00:32:44Surely you do not expect a lowly fisher to perform a miracle?
00:32:50Honestly, the imperial gold is not easily earned.
00:32:56I cannot simply watch my father face such peril.
00:32:59I will protect him as we fight our way out.
00:33:03Ryan, my dear son.
00:33:08I shall protect the emperor and the prince with my life on our journey to the Mountain City Army.
00:33:13Sigh.
00:33:17Erika, please look at the situation.
00:33:27Fine, fine.
00:33:28Since we have come this far, I will see this through to the end.
00:33:30I always finish what I start.
00:33:32I will take everyone with me.
00:33:36Thank you, Erika.
00:33:38Thank you, Erika.
00:33:44I am in your debt, Erika.
00:33:57That boy is lucky indeed.
00:34:00As a prince of the realm, is he not a match for Erika?
00:34:04With the virtue and skill of Erika, any man would be blessed to have her.
00:34:11I have caused you much trouble.
00:34:17It is no trouble, but it is a shame that your highness must live as a lowly fisherman with me.
00:34:25In that case, please do not call me your highness.
00:34:29Will you call me Ryan?
00:34:30As you wish, Ryan.
00:34:31Let's board the boat.
00:34:34Yes, my darling.
00:34:35Yes, my darling.
00:34:37Yes, my darling.
00:35:09You are a terror on dry land, but on the water, you are a pathetic mess.
00:35:15Silence. I will protect the Emperor with my life.
00:35:30Forgive me. I... I have become a burden to everyone.
00:35:38You are truly good for nothing.
00:35:44Get him into the cabin at once. Do not let anyone suspect us.
00:36:04State your business! Stop the boat for an inspection!
00:36:15Officer? We are just humble fishers.
00:36:19We are taking the fish caught today to Lincoln Ward to sell.
00:36:49The river is closed today. Turn back at once.
00:36:52The river is closed today. Turn back at once.
00:36:54We have an agreement with the tavern to deliver this fresh fish.
00:36:57If we do not deliver the fish today, the fish will start to rot, and we will have to pay
00:37:01the tavern.
00:37:02Please show some mercy. Make an exception for us and let us pass through.
00:37:08I said no, and I mean it! A single basket of fish means nothing!
00:37:12Careful, or I will take your head!
00:37:21You useless brat! It is all your fault!
00:37:26If you had not insisted on this route, we wouldn't have missed the delivery!
00:37:30Now we are going to lose every penny!
00:37:39Heavens above! What am I going to do?
00:37:42I was counting on this silver to pay for my own burial!
00:37:45Now it is all gone!
00:38:01Father, please, that is enough.
00:38:08Officer, please show some mercy.
00:38:11The poor man is counting on this catch to survive until his final day.
00:38:14If this sail falls through, he will trade my life for his burial.
00:38:23Get moving! Move along! All that noise is giving me a headache!
00:38:31Ryan, do not take it to heart. I was a bit too rough with you just now.
00:38:35It was only a matter of necessity.
00:38:38However, this matter stays between the three of us.
00:38:41You must never mention it again.
00:39:01I am dead! I am so dead!
00:39:03Am I dead for knowing a royal secret?
00:39:27All vessels and civilians are forbidden to pass!
00:39:30Stay where you are for questioning!
00:39:35This is not good. They must have discovered the decoy of my father.
00:39:38The five of us escaped in total secrecy after leaving one man in the estate of Prince Ryan.
00:39:42He posed as the Emperor to distract the rebels in hopes of buying us more time.
00:39:46Now it appears that the rebels have stormed the estate of Prince Ryan.
00:39:49They realize the Emperor was not inside, and that is why they intensified the search.
00:40:20What do you think you are doing? You are not allowed to set up a stall here!
00:40:23Please calm down, officer. Since the river is closed today, we have nowhere else to go anyway.
00:40:26This boat is full of fresh fish caught today, and they will all rot by tomorrow morning.
00:40:30Why not let me cook them right here?
00:40:32You and your men can enjoy a fresh meal and keep yourselves warm.
00:40:35Hurry up then, as we are all starving!
00:41:01We have been camping in the wild for days without a single full meal. I am absolutely famished.
00:41:06The scent of this fish is incredible. I will not be polite then.
00:41:09Your Majesty, why are you so well behaved today? Are you not sneaking a bite for once?
00:41:15Do not think I did not notice. All those fish were caught right beside the boat.
00:41:47No! Look!
00:41:52Officer, is this liquor strong enough for you?
00:42:07Jason Cole.
00:42:15That woman from the Shady Stall.
00:42:21So you are still alive after all.
00:42:35Stop eating everyone! The targets are here! Capture them at once!
00:43:12I'll make you pay for this today!
00:43:24Ryan I am fine well I am not fine
00:43:43Once he sets foot on land he will be a formidable warrior once again
00:43:46The prowess of the commander of the imperial gods is certainly not to be taken lightly
00:44:16Your majesty I have come to save you
00:44:20Move board the boat immediately
00:44:41Uncle Simon go
00:44:53Kill the lights
00:45:20Finally we are back on my turf
00:45:38They are hiding right here
00:45:40The prince said that their capture would bring a massive reward
00:45:51Perica what do we do now
00:46:02Your majesty Ryan follow my lead
00:46:22What was that noise
00:46:31Help there are river demons in the water
00:46:44Aaaaaaah!
00:46:45No!
00:47:17What? What is that? Could river demons really exist?
00:47:31Stay back! Do not come any closer!
00:47:52Chief! You have finally returned!
00:48:16Chief, is this band under your command?
00:48:19Yes.
00:48:22You are the chief of this crew?
00:48:29You heard them call me that, did you not?
00:48:34You are a bandit queen!
00:48:38Nonsense! We are only the anchor crew!
00:48:43Hiding a band of a thousand thieves.
00:48:46Huh?
00:48:47Somewhere in a legendary mountain.
00:48:52Commander Wood, you have been reading too many heroic fables.
00:49:06What is the matter with him?
00:49:10His pride is just wounded.
00:49:12Oh?
00:49:14He tried to play the hero just now, but he did not expect that you are far better at fighting
00:49:19than he is.
00:49:27Speaking of which, my daughter-in-law, please don't give up on my hopeless son.
00:49:33Your Majesty, are you afraid of losing a daughter-in-law, or just afraid of having no fish to eat?
00:49:39A bit of both, I suppose.
00:49:46The great Prince Ryan would never fall for a wild woman like me.
00:50:11Charge! Charge!
00:50:13Charge!
00:50:14hear my command prince dylan and prince eden have betrayed the throne
00:50:18treason of this magnitude shall find no mercy follow me to crush this rebellion to victory
00:50:23the emperor reclaimed the army he struck the rebels at once loyalists rallied to the throne
00:50:47they soon destroyed the power of prince dylan and prince eden the empire was secured again
00:50:52ryan was named the crown prince with peace restored to the realm the emperor returned to the capital
00:51:10erica why did you choose to help me
00:51:33eat do not go hungry long ago when i was begging with grandfather we passed through the territory
00:51:38you ruled you were just a boy newly exiled yet you were already issuing decrees that saved people like
00:51:43us those with no home and little hope driven by that mercy i gathered my strength and fought my way
00:51:47north armed with nothing but my skill in the water and a stubborn spirit that refused to break i carved
00:51:51out a path through every hardship until i became the chief of the anchor crew our crew operates
00:51:54between light and shadow which is why simon and i often wore disguises we posed as simple fishers and
00:51:57wine cellars just to seek out a few business opportunities i never expected to save the
00:52:01emperor by mere chance i did everything possible to keep him safe waiting for the right moment to
00:52:06bring him to you i only wanted him to see the truth for himself to see a prince who truly
00:52:10serves
00:52:10the common people and to see the perfect order you brought to this land everything that followed
00:52:17was quite unexpected i never thought the road would be so dangerous even less did i think you'd lose your
00:52:22heart to me your highness you are destined to be a great leader in the future knowing that makes every
00:52:29sacrifice i made feel worthwhile am i nothing more than a title in your eyes
00:52:51you are the man who will one day wear the crown you should marry a lady from a noble house
00:52:55i have been
00:52:55free and wild for far too long i only want a simple life upon the water fate brought us together
00:52:59but it was not meant to last once my only dream was to be a great ruler i would lead
00:53:07the empire with
00:53:07wisdom and bring peace to the people but now i wish that i were free to wander with the woman
00:53:14i love
00:53:22your highness you have your own path to follow and i have mine as well i am going to lead
00:53:27the anchor
00:53:27crew to become the greatest power in the world while you must carry the weight of your people
00:53:35i know that i cannot make you stay go now and i will watch you leave
00:53:48ryan
00:53:55when you stood in front of me that day it truly meant the world to me
00:54:06forget it to hell with the rules i am the chief after all not some refined lady from a noble
00:54:11house
00:54:19uh
00:54:21and i am one of them
00:54:41and a half is where i have a fresh or whatever
00:54:58I really thought that you would follow that lad to the capital as empress.
00:55:11I am the leader of the anchor crew. Who would want to be a wretched empress?
00:55:32Anyway, I've secured a grand future for the anchor crew.
00:55:37A grand future? What kind of future?
00:56:07Chief! Chief! Look, so this is the future you promised the crew?
00:56:20Chief!
00:56:20Chief! Is this truly the child of the crown prince?
00:56:25Of course.
00:56:30Perfect! The future leader of our crew has the crown prince as his father! Who would ever dare to cross
00:56:35us now? Even the authorities will have to step aside for us!
00:56:48When the emperor and the crown prince returned to the capital, they asked me what kind of reward I desired.
00:56:52I did not give them an answer.
00:56:57Because the reward that truly satisfies me is something I have already received.
00:57:19Chief! Something is wrong! The soldiers! The soldiers! They have surrounded the dock of our crew!
00:57:36Just when we finally found some peace, is it possible the remnants of Dylan and Eden have come back to
00:57:40haunt us?
00:57:40Chief!
00:57:50There is no need for panic! This river belongs to the Watsons!
00:57:57The
00:57:57The
00:57:57The
00:57:57The
00:57:57The
00:57:57The
00:57:57The
00:58:04I don't know.
00:58:27Erika, since my father returned to the capital, he has been talking about how you would start showing symptoms by
00:58:32now. Your appetite must be quite poor.
00:58:35I searched the entire capital for this. Preserved Ginger is a miracle cure for nausea.
00:58:45Quite a grand spectacle, Your Highness. Bringing Ginger with the entire Imperial Guards.
00:58:50The Crown Prince has no place at this dock when he belongs on the Throne of Gold.
00:58:58The Throne of Gold is far too cold, and it is not comfortable at all.
00:59:02I gave you my word that I would protect you for life.
00:59:06Chopping wood and building fires is a skill I have truly mastered.
00:59:12Well, well! Do you all see this? The eye of our chief is truly sharp!
00:59:19The follow-up service is quite impressive! Even the scullery maid is delivered to the door!
00:59:36What are you waiting for? Since you are here to build fires, get to the backyard at once! Chop that
00:59:40pile of wet wood!
00:59:43Hey! I am going!
00:59:46Hey! I am going!
00:59:47let's do it!
00:59:48Ha have a heeeem!
01:00:06Yes!
01:00:08Whoa!
01:00:15Your Highness, have mercy. This is an urgent border report. The Emperor claims a headache
01:00:19as an excuse and insists that you review the matter. You must make the final decision.
01:00:22At least give it a single glance. Can you not see that I am busy? The feet of Erika
01:00:26are badly swollen today. I must finish this pile of wood quickly to boil water for her
01:00:29footbath. He is actually boiling water for a footbath. To think the Crown Prince would
01:00:40perform such a chore. If this news ever reaches the capital, the old men of the
01:00:43censoret will certainly die of shame.
01:00:52Just leave the reports on that large stone. Once Erika is finally in a deep sleep, I
01:00:56will find the time to review them. Nothing shall interrupt her footbath now.
01:01:07Chief.
01:01:10Chief!
01:01:11Look at that beggar over there!
01:01:13Why does he look exactly like that old man Arthur Crown?
01:01:15Hey additions!
01:01:24Erika quick! свидerah!
01:01:26Erika quick!
01:01:27I am here! Prepare for my welcome!
01:01:41Your majesty, you belong on the throne in the capital.
01:01:44Why did you come here looking like this?
01:01:51I am done with that throne.
01:01:53It is so stiff that it is painful to sit on.
01:01:55The palace food is worse than tasteless dishwater.
01:01:57Erica, I've been starving for three whole days.
01:01:59Prepare a bowl of fish and tofu at once.
01:02:20Now this is the flavor that I missed.
01:02:22Since I returned to the palace,
01:02:24those servants have served nothing but the most bland and hollow meals.
01:02:27They focus only on fancy decorations.
01:02:28Everything looks beautiful to the eye.
01:02:29But there is no actual flavor within.
01:02:30My sense of taste is slowly fading away because of them.
01:02:40You are a distinguished guest.
01:02:43But with that look,
01:02:44did you run away from home?
01:02:46Or are you just slacking off on your duties?
01:03:06Erica, I would like another bowl of rice.
01:03:17Drench it in that fish broth for me.
01:03:23There is plenty of fish and rice for everyone.
01:03:41Erica, I will fire the head of the imperial kitchen who only knows how to make useless radish carvings.
01:03:52You must bring the little one.
01:03:54You must bring the little one and come back to take charge.
01:03:56Once that is done, Ryan can finish the reports in the throne room and walk right over to the inner
01:04:00palace to be with you.
01:04:01I will also get to enjoy this tofu fish every single day.
01:04:06Life would be absolutely perfect.
01:04:19Your majesty, I am the leader of the anchor crew, not some personal cook for your family.
01:04:33Leading the imperial kitchen is an honor that most only dream of.
01:04:38Surely it beats the harsh life on the water.
01:04:40I have several thousand members of my crew who rely on me to fill their bellies.
01:04:45If I move to the palace for comfort,
01:04:47do you expect them to pack their bags,
01:04:49enter the capital,
01:04:50and drain the national treasury?
01:05:04Father, the spirit of Erica is wild.
01:05:07She loves the breeze of the open river.
01:05:09She hates the high walls of the palace.
01:05:10And what of you?
01:05:11You are the crown prince.
01:05:17I have made my decision.
01:05:18I will simply work twice as hard.
01:05:20I can handle the throne during the day
01:05:23and return to this dock every night.
01:05:26Sean rose fast enough for the trip,
01:05:28so I will not feel any exhaustion.
01:05:32Your highness,
01:05:34please show some mercy.
01:05:35If you travel back and forth like that,
01:05:37I am the one who will truly suffer.
01:05:39I am the one who will truly murder.
01:05:58Dad!
01:06:02Dad!
01:06:03Dad!
01:06:09your highness your head is bleeding you are injured so please sit and rest
