00:00:01Gentlemen, the highlight of today's feast is about to begin.
00:00:06My two daughters, Julia and Chloe, shall choose their husbands from among you.
00:00:10I swear by the honor of the Quintius family, whoever catches these wreaths shall be wed.
00:00:18These are all senate nobles. Quintius and their spice merchants to climb the social ladder.
00:00:23Your betrothals will determine if this family joins the nobility.
00:00:26Be careful when you throw those weeds.
00:00:28Whoever secures the highest status husband will be the family hero.
00:00:32Baby, mummy knows you will marry much better than Julia.
00:00:37Sister, let me go first.
00:00:43Gaius, we've been in love for two years.
00:00:46He promised he would only catch my wreath today.
00:00:53Throw it to me, Miss Chloe Quinteria!
00:00:55I love you!
00:00:56Miss Chloe Quinteria!
00:00:58Gaius!
00:00:58What is he doing?
00:01:00We had a pact!
00:01:02Throw it to me, Miss Chloe Quinteria!
00:01:05Gaius!
00:01:06Catch it!
00:01:12Magnificent!
00:01:12The eldest son of the elite Fulius family!
00:01:16Oh dear sister, Gaius caught my wreath.
00:01:18I guess he prefers me.
00:01:19No, this can't be right.
00:01:21Gaius and I made a promise.
00:01:22He said he would marry me!
00:01:23Chloe!
00:01:24You are truly my pride and joy.
00:01:30Darling, I will give you the grandest imperial wedding the Empire has ever seen.
00:01:38Gaius!
00:01:39Don't you owe me an explanation?
00:01:41I'm the one you're dating!
00:01:44Sorry, Julia.
00:01:46You have no maternal backing.
00:01:47And your father doesn't value you.
00:01:49I have to marry your stepsister.
00:01:52Then what were the last two years for?
00:01:54Sister, isn't it obvious?
00:01:56Gaius just playing with you.
00:01:58Now the men below are still waiting for your wreath.
00:02:00Who knows?
00:02:01Maybe even the Emperor is down there.
00:02:06Your Majesty.
00:02:07You've been undercover as a beggar for three months to expose the noble's crimes.
00:02:15Let the Praetorian Guard handle the rest.
00:02:20There's evidence I must secure some person.
00:02:22Besides, being out here is a perfect way to dodge my mother's marriage demands.
00:02:26Two birds, one stone.
00:02:34Don't go.
00:02:36Your destiny is right down there.
00:02:55Look!
00:02:56Quintius's oldest daughter has chosen a beggar!
00:03:06A rich ILS picking a beggar at a wreath ceremony!
00:03:10This is going to be quite the show!
00:03:13How did that handmade Ruth end up on a beggar's head?
00:03:17Sister, talk about bad luck!
00:03:19Of all people you picked a beggar, how is father ever going to show his face again?
00:03:24You useless girl!
00:03:25Out of all these people you threw it to a beggar, you're doing this just to humiliate me!
00:03:32Well, don't be discouraged, sister.
00:03:34You'll be poor, but I'm sure he's an expert at scavenging leftovers.
00:03:37At least you won't starve!
00:03:39A grand lady marrying a beggar!
00:03:42Surely Mr. Quintius will go back on his words!
00:03:45If she doesn't marry him, your word is worth nothing!
00:03:48You'll be finished in this city!
00:03:51Marry him! Marry him!
00:04:03You!
00:04:04When shot!
00:04:05Are you trying to run away from the engagement?
00:04:12Your majesty!
00:04:13Why did you catch it?
00:04:14This means a binding marriage contract!
00:04:16Toss it quickly!
00:04:18It's fine, I'm poor and filthy right now.
00:04:19A highborn lady like her would never actually agree to marry me.
00:04:22Why are you running?
00:04:23You threw the wreath yourself!
00:04:24No one forced you!
00:04:25You rebellious girl!
00:04:26Look at this beggar you've been scaled!
00:04:28If you marry him, our family will be the laughing stock of the Empire!
00:04:31After today's feast, I've finally seen these so-called nobles for the hypocrites they are.
00:04:37I'd rather marry a commoner and escape the schemes than spend my life as a pawn for noble alliances.
00:04:43Julia, the law of the wreath is absolute.
00:04:46If it lands on him, you must marry him, even if he is a beggar!
00:04:57I am willing to marry this gentleman.
00:05:05My name is Julia Quintilia.
00:05:07What is yours?
00:05:09My name is Marcus Aurelius.
00:05:11Marcus Aurelius?
00:05:12Why does that name sound so familiar?
00:05:15It's a common name.
00:05:16Rome is full of them.
00:05:17There's nothing strange about it.
00:05:20Let everyone witness.
00:05:22I take this man as my husband.
00:05:26You truly have no regrets.
00:05:28I have nothing.
00:05:30I am a wanderer with no hope.
00:05:32I do.
00:05:33We both have hands and feet.
00:05:34We can build our own future.
00:05:35If we work hard and find jobs, we will be just fine.
00:05:38I've never met a girl so easily satisfied.
00:05:40It's a pity.
00:05:41I cannot tell her who I truly am just yet.
00:05:43I promise you I will never fail you.
00:05:45Enough!
00:05:46Treating a beggar like a prize, you are throwing your entire future away!
00:05:49A future isn't built on status, but on character and virtue.
00:05:51He may be dressed in rags, but he lacks the arrogance and hypocrisy of the nobility.
00:05:55I believe he will be a good husband worthy of my life.
00:05:57She must marry him!
00:05:58You said whoever was hit must marry.
00:06:00If you break your word, no one will ever trust the Quintius family again.
00:06:04Yes!
00:06:05She must marry him!
00:06:06No backing out now!
00:06:07Julia!
00:06:08If you insist on marry this beggar, I won't spend a single con your wedding!
00:06:11Very well, father.
00:06:15Soon, I will be a noble lady, while you will be a beggar's wife.
00:06:18From this day forward, you are beneath me.
00:06:21Being a beggar's wife isn't scary.
00:06:23What's scary is sharing a bed with a soul that isn't yours.
00:06:25Gaius is ripped, but he's a calculator.
00:06:28You'd better watch your own back.
00:06:40Then, we shall hold our wedding at the temple in three days.
00:06:45My mother is obsessed with getting me married anyway, so why not?
00:06:50Good.
00:06:51I will be there.
00:07:01The two Quintius daughters are marrying today, but look at the difference.
00:07:05It's insane.
00:07:06It's more than that.
00:07:07The younger one married a relative of the emperor and will live in luxury.
00:07:11The eldest married a beggar and will only know suffering.
00:07:19Sister, why are you here alone?
00:07:21Where's your husband?
00:07:23Did even that beggar dump you?
00:07:27He didn't seem like the type to break his word.
00:07:31I'm here.
00:07:39Who is this?
00:07:40He's more radiant than the nobles of the Senate.
00:07:47Forgive me, Julia.
00:07:49I kept you waiting.
00:07:49Are you...
00:07:51Are you...
00:07:52Are you...
00:07:52Are you Marcus the beggar?
00:08:00What?!
00:08:03That's no beggar.
00:08:04He's an absolute stunner with incredible class.
00:08:08They look so perfect together.
00:08:09I'm obsessed.
00:08:10He's not rich, yet he dressed with such care for our wedding.
00:08:13I was right about him.
00:08:14He's a man I can trust with my life.
00:08:17Do something.
00:08:18I won't let a beggar outshine me.
00:08:29This sapphire is a full five carats worth ten million asses.
00:08:39It is the symbol of my undying love for you.
00:08:45It is the symbol of my undying love for you.
00:08:47This ring was a gift from the god Jupiter himself.
00:08:50My ancestors told me I must personally place it on the finger of my true wife.
00:08:56A gift from a god?
00:08:58A beggar meeting a god?
00:09:00You probably found that in a woodshed.
00:09:02This is a holy temple.
00:09:04How dare you present such rush before the gods?
00:09:06You are a disgrace to the Quinterius name!
00:09:10This is supposed to be a legitimate marriage contact, and you bring...
00:09:12This?
00:09:13Julia, aren't you absolutely humiliated?
00:09:17Marriage is about the connection of souls, not the price of a ring.
00:09:20I have chosen Marcus as my husband, and nothing you say can change my heart.
00:09:24Silence!
00:09:25Haven't you brought enough shame to this family?
00:09:27Don't waste your health on such an ungrateful daughter.
00:09:29She'll be living in squabby with this beggar soon enough, then she'll realize just how catastrophic her mistake was.
00:09:35Next, we seal the union of Miss Julia Quintalia and...
00:09:38Wait...
00:09:39Augustus?
00:09:43Are you...
00:09:45Emperor Augustus?
00:09:53May the god Jupiter bless you both with eternal happiness.
00:09:59Mr. Quintius, you are truly fortunate.
00:10:02Your daughter has climbed a very tall tree indeed.
00:10:07Of course.
00:10:08My Chloe deserves nothing less than the best.
00:10:11Some people don't even have a real wedding ring, they just have scrap wood.
00:10:15Unlike me, with this priceless sapphire.
00:10:21Just endure it!
00:10:22You must have eaten too much lately, your fingers are too fat!
00:10:26Damn it!
00:10:27Didn't you say this was custom made?
00:10:30You may now seal your vows with a kiss.
00:10:33May I?
00:10:36In the name of Jupiter, you are now husband and wife.
00:10:40Sounds like a tree.
00:10:56Sylvia Quintalia?
00:10:56She yelled about the
00:11:10I will never let you get away with this.
00:11:16Where are you taking me?
00:11:18To our home.
00:11:21Are we moving in together?
00:11:24Of course.
00:11:25From this day on, you are my one and only wife.
00:11:30My lord!
00:11:33Daemon.
00:11:34Forgive me, master.
00:11:35We found a place that fits your destitute commoner disguise, but the rat infestate is severe.
00:11:41It will take at least two days to make it habitable for you.
00:11:45What?
00:11:45But, master, we have a backup plan.
00:11:48It's much better.
00:11:52I am so sorry.
00:11:54I'll find us a proper home as soon as I can.
00:11:57Actually, I...
00:11:59Oh!
00:12:05Spending my wedding night in a tentarium?
00:12:08Ever since I was a little girl, I've dreamed of sleeping under the stars.
00:12:13Thank you, Marcus.
00:12:15I know things are hard for you.
00:12:17Yet you still did your best to give me this.
00:12:19She's a merchant's daughter, yet she's so easily satisfied.
00:12:23Her father must have been incredibly cruel to her.
00:12:29Wait.
00:12:30Why is there music playing out here in the wilderness?
00:12:37It must be...
00:12:39a blessing from Jupiter.
00:12:41Jupiter.
00:12:45Jupiter.
00:12:55Jupiter.
00:13:18Hey!
00:13:19Wake up!
00:13:20Pitching tents on restricted city grounds is illegal.
00:13:23Move out immediately.
00:13:24Apologies.
00:13:25We will be gone soon and won't trouble you again.
00:13:28Wait! You are...
00:13:30His Majesty Oscars!
00:13:33What majesty?
00:13:36Who is... His Majesty?
00:13:43Good heavens, sir!
00:13:45Look! That man is stealing your carriage!
00:13:47Stop him, quick!
00:13:53Damn it! That's the third one this month!
00:13:55I'm catching that thief today!
00:13:58What was that about His Majesty?
00:13:59Just a joke.
00:14:01Pitching a tent in a forbidden zone.
00:14:03Who do you think you are? The Emperor?
00:14:08Julia, I'll find us a better home. Very soon.
00:14:10It's my father's birthday today. I want to visit home.
00:14:13After how he treated you.
00:14:15Are you sure you want to go back?
00:14:16I believe he still loves me.
00:14:18He's just blinded by prejudice for now.
00:14:22Fine. I'll go with you.
00:14:23I'll bake some pastries for him before we go.
00:14:26And I'll help you.
00:14:33Master, the target you're investigating has appeared near the market.
00:14:38Forgive me, Julia. I can't go in with you.
00:14:40It's okay. I'll be fine on my own.
00:14:44Julia, when I return, I'll tell you everything.
00:14:47Immediately prepare a lavish, dignified gift for Mr. Quentius' birthday.
00:14:51Yes, sire.
00:14:59I've returned.
00:15:03Who invited you, Julia?
00:15:12It's my father's birthday.
00:15:14I've come to pay my respects and offer my blessings.
00:15:17So this is the eldest Quentius' daughter who insisted on marrying a beggar.
00:15:22Crashing the party.
00:15:23Where's your beggar husband?
00:15:25Too ashamed to show his face?
00:15:27Marcus has personal business to attend to.
00:15:29Personal business?
00:15:30For a commoner.
00:15:31He's not exactly the emperor, is he?
00:15:33He's just terrified of being the laughingstock.
00:15:38I bet he's already bored of you.
00:15:40Abandoned on the second day of marriage.
00:15:41Why not become my mistress instead?
00:15:43I am doing just fine.
00:15:45We are very much in love.
00:15:46As for you, Chloe,
00:15:48if this man could deceive and abandon me,
00:15:50he'll do the same to you the moment a better offer comes along.
00:15:53You!
00:15:53You married a homeless beggar.
00:15:56My daughter married a noble.
00:15:58There is no comparison.
00:16:00Look at these.
00:16:01These are the lavish gifts Gaius brought.
00:16:08And this contract,
00:16:09I shall petition His Majesty Augustus
00:16:12to grant the Quentius family
00:16:13a title of nobility.
00:16:17You said you came to visit Father.
00:16:20So where is your gift?
00:16:27Father,
00:16:28I made these honey cakes myself.
00:16:30I hope you like them.
00:16:35Honey cakes?
00:16:36What are those worth?
00:16:37A few copper?
00:16:38How embarrassing.
00:16:39It's a gift from the heart.
00:16:41From my husband and me.
00:16:42Heart?
00:16:43Is a beggar's sentiment worth anything?
00:16:46Julia,
00:16:46you are a total disgrace to my name.
00:16:49Throw her out.
00:16:50I never want to see her again.
00:16:55Varus Quintius.
00:16:56The Imperial Palace has sent birthday gifts.
00:17:02The palace?
00:17:03His Majesty?
00:17:04I don't have nearly enough status
00:17:06for the Emperor to send me gifts.
00:17:08It is because of your daughter.
00:17:10Is it her
00:17:11or her?
00:17:16Such lavish gifts.
00:17:18Could it be the eldest daughter
00:17:19didn't marry a commoner after all?
00:17:21You must be mistaken.
00:17:24Julia married a beggar.
00:17:25There's no way she has palace connections.
00:17:27You're a relative of the Emperor.
00:17:28One of your uncles must have sent this for you, right?
00:17:30Oh,
00:17:31very likely.
00:17:32They must have been worried
00:17:33my own gift wasn't grand enough,
00:17:35so they sent a backer.
00:17:36See?
00:17:37I told you.
00:17:39A beggar could never afford such luxury.
00:17:41You two are the ones
00:17:42who truly bring honor to this family.
00:17:45Unlike Julia,
00:17:46you truly sicken me.
00:17:47From now on,
00:17:48I have only one daughter.
00:17:49Julia is no daughter of mine.
00:17:50Chloe married a noble
00:17:51and suddenly she's his only child.
00:17:53My handmade gift
00:17:54means nothing to him.
00:17:56They say a father's love
00:17:57is unconditional.
00:17:58But you,
00:17:59you just see daughters
00:18:01as bargaining chips for profit.
00:18:02How dare you speak to me that way?
00:18:12Costious.
00:18:19There are no words at all.
00:18:24I must have misseen it.
00:18:26That's mine!
00:18:27Give it back!
00:18:28There's no way Julia's beggar
00:18:30is his majesty.
00:18:36Is this thing made of wood?
00:18:38No!
00:18:40Treasuring a beggar's track?
00:18:42Disgusting.
00:18:43Chloe, I'm begging you.
00:18:44Give it back.
00:18:44It's from my husband.
00:18:45He's the only person
00:18:46who ever chose me.
00:18:47I'll do anything.
00:18:48Just give me the ring, please.
00:18:53You said it.
00:18:54Guards,
00:18:54bring the thorns
00:18:55from the backyard
00:18:55and pave the floor.
00:19:01Come on.
00:19:05What are you doing?
00:19:08My sources say
00:19:09Madam is being ruthlessly
00:19:10mistreated at her father's house.
00:19:18Julia, hold on!
00:19:21You said it yourself.
00:19:23Anything.
00:19:25Crawl to me on your knees
00:19:27across these thorns
00:19:28and I'll give you the ring.
00:19:30Father,
00:19:31are you really letting her do this?
00:19:33I am your daughter too.
00:19:35Do you really want me to kneel?
00:19:37I told you!
00:19:38The moment you married that beggar,
00:19:40you shamed this family.
00:19:43You are no daughter of mine.
00:19:45That ring isn't just
00:19:46a symbol of our love.
00:19:47It's something my husband treasures.
00:19:48I have to get it back.
00:19:50My ancestors told me
00:19:51I must personally place it
00:19:52on the finger of my true wife.
00:19:54Fine.
00:19:56I'll kneel.
00:19:57But once I'm done,
00:19:58I'm dead to this family.
00:20:01I'm dead to this family.
00:20:08I'm dead to this family.
00:20:08Yeah, faster!
00:20:12Julia, wait for me!
00:20:21Mark, don't worry.
00:20:25I will get our ring back.
00:20:29Enough!
00:20:56Hurry!
00:21:18What are you doing?
00:21:19No!
00:21:26This is the price
00:21:28of marrying a beggar.
00:21:29Risking your life
00:21:30for a piece of wood.
00:21:31I guess that's the most
00:21:32valuable thing
00:21:33that stinking beggar owns.
00:21:45I did what you asked.
00:21:47Give me the ring.
00:21:48You're pathetic.
00:21:50For a piece of junk?
00:21:52I almost thought
00:21:53it was something valuable.
00:21:55I'm bored.
00:21:56Here, take it.
00:22:01You...
00:22:03No!
00:22:05My mother told me
00:22:07I must personally
00:22:08place this ring
00:22:09on my future wife's hand.
00:22:11Faster!
00:22:12Faster!
00:22:14Faster!
00:22:38You cherish your beggar so much.
00:22:41If I disfigure you,
00:22:43will he still want you?
00:22:47No!
00:22:48No!
00:22:50Someone help!
00:22:56Someone help!
00:23:09His majesty, Augustus,
00:23:12has arrived!
00:23:15Help!
00:23:32Who dares bully my wife?
00:23:47Julia, I'm so sorry.
00:23:48I'm late.
00:23:52At least,
00:23:53I didn't lose your ring.
00:23:58His majesty?
00:24:00Impossible!
00:24:01He's just a beggar!
00:24:03But...
00:24:03Look at all those guards!
00:24:05Mom!
00:24:06No way!
00:24:07He must have hired actors!
00:24:09I've only seen statues
00:24:10of the emperor,
00:24:11but he looks exactly like them.
00:24:14Looking like him
00:24:15doesn't make him him.
00:24:17He probably stole those clothes
00:24:18just to save face!
00:24:20What a joke!
00:24:21A beggar playing dress-up
00:24:22at my birthday party!
00:24:24Sister,
00:24:25look at the trash you married.
00:24:27Homeless and now
00:24:28impersonating the emperor?
00:24:30If his majesty finds out,
00:24:32you're both dead.
00:24:33You truly have a death wish.
00:24:46What are you doing?
00:24:48What are you doing?
00:24:49Julia,
00:24:49let's go.
00:24:51What's wrong?
00:24:53Who did this?
00:24:58I did.
00:24:59So what?
00:25:02Who knew she'd actually
00:25:03crawl through thorns
00:25:04for a piece of wood?
00:25:05Bitch!
00:25:06Shut up!
00:25:07Who the hell do you think you are?
00:25:08You dare shout at me?
00:25:09I'll curse her all I want.
00:25:11She married a loser like you.
00:25:12I am Lady Fulius.
00:25:14If I kill you today,
00:25:15you should thank me.
00:25:16Enough acting!
00:25:17Guards,
00:25:18arrest this beggar and Julia.
00:25:27No one insults my wife
00:25:30and lives.
00:25:32Seize them!
00:25:46Are you insane?
00:25:48I am Lady Fulius.
00:25:50You dare touch me?
00:25:54Gaius,
00:25:55help me.
00:25:56Whoever kills him
00:25:57gets a hundred thousand
00:25:59Sestorians.
00:26:07You stinking beggar!
00:26:10The Fulvius family
00:26:11are relatives of the emperor.
00:26:13How dare you!
00:26:14I dare.
00:26:15And I can wipe
00:26:16the Fulcius family
00:26:17off the face of the earth.
00:26:20You're overacting, beggar!
00:26:22Let me go before
00:26:23I get really angry
00:26:24and I might spare you!
00:26:26Shove their faces
00:26:28into the sacred fire.
00:26:31Stop!
00:26:32My brother is a consular!
00:26:33You think you'll walk out
00:26:34of here alive?
00:26:37Since when was the consul
00:26:39from the Fulius family?
00:26:41Scared?
00:26:41Then let us go
00:26:42and beg for mercy!
00:26:46Hold them down!
00:26:49My brother will destroy you!
00:26:52You'll regret this, beggar!
00:26:55Marcus,
00:26:56his brother is the consul.
00:26:58Maybe we should...
00:26:59No, Julia.
00:27:00They hurt you.
00:27:02I'm making them pay.
00:27:03My brother is a consul!
00:27:05I'll have you all killed!
00:27:06Get off me,
00:27:07you filthy beggar!
00:27:08I'll tear you apart!
00:27:09Stop!
00:27:11Stop!
00:27:12My brother is saving!
00:27:14Help!
00:27:15Help!
00:27:17Go get him!
00:27:22You're the one
00:27:23touching my brother!
00:27:26The Emperor's guard?
00:27:28Why are they here?
00:27:34It's me.
00:27:36So what?
00:27:40Your...
00:27:41Your Majesty?
00:27:46He really is!
00:27:48The Emperor!
00:27:55Augustus?
00:27:56No!
00:27:57He was a beggar!
00:27:58It's impossible!
00:28:00Brother!
00:28:00He's lying!
00:28:01Those clothes are stolen!
00:28:03Those actors are paid!
00:28:04It's fake!
00:28:06Yes, Mr. Isaac!
00:28:08You're mistaken!
00:28:08He's just a...
00:28:09Beggar!
00:28:10He can't be the Emperor exactly!
00:28:12Why would the Emperor
00:28:13be in this dump?
00:28:14Maybe it is a coincidence.
00:28:16The Emperor
00:28:17would never be here.
00:28:18You rebel!
00:28:19Look at the husband
00:28:20you chose!
00:28:22Impersonating the Emperor
00:28:23and offending the Senate!
00:28:25How will you fix this?
00:28:26This beggar
00:28:27almost killed someone!
00:28:29Don't let him go!
00:28:30In the name of the Consul
00:28:31take them to the dungeon!
00:28:39My son
00:28:41His Majesty
00:28:42still refuses
00:28:44to come home?
00:28:45I heard
00:28:47he married a woman
00:28:48out there.
00:28:50Ridiculous!
00:28:51I'm bringing him back
00:28:52myself!
00:28:56In the name of the Consul
00:28:57take them to the dungeon!
00:28:59In the name of the Consul
00:29:01you're no Consul
00:29:03you have no authority here!
00:29:08You beggar!
00:29:09You know nothing of the law!
00:29:11How dare you question
00:29:13my brother!
00:29:17Julia
00:29:18no one
00:29:19can save you today!
00:29:21I can't let anything
00:29:22happen to my husband!
00:29:28They have the Consul
00:29:29we have to go!
00:29:32Your wounds
00:29:34I'm letting them go
00:29:35for today
00:29:35to save you!
00:29:37Running away?
00:29:38No chance!
00:29:42No chance!
00:29:44No chance!
00:29:45No chance!
00:29:46No chance!
00:29:47No chance!
00:29:47No chance!
00:29:47No chance!
00:29:59Marker!
00:30:00Marker!
00:30:20Chloe, we share the same blood. How can you be so heartless?
00:30:25He tried to disfadger me first.
00:30:29I won't let you go that easily.
00:30:31You're dead.
00:30:40Don't bother. Your little actors are too busy to save you.
00:30:44Marcus, go! Save yourself! Just go!
00:30:48Go? He's not going anywhere.
00:30:51Why? Why won't you just leave us alone?
00:30:56You're so lucky, sister. Even a beggar loves you.
00:31:01The more you love him, the more I want to break you.
00:31:06Our grudge is between us! Do what you want to me, but please, let Marcus go!
00:31:14Julia, don't waste your breath.
00:31:18I can't let you pay for my life.
00:31:21How touching. Flirting at death's door.
00:31:24Fine. I'll kill you both together.
00:31:28The Empress' daughter is here! She's here!
00:31:32No!
00:31:48Who dares harm my son?
00:31:53Matters send her us!
00:32:07Our son. He really is the Emperor.
00:32:16Julia.
00:32:18Julia!
00:32:19Stay with me!
00:32:21Physician!
00:32:22Get a physician!
00:32:28Stretch her now!
00:32:34Your Majesty, Quintius' family is in custody.
00:32:36Marcus! You worried me to death.
00:32:40He really is. The Emperor.
00:32:43Arrest the entire Quantilius' family!
00:32:45Sell them into slavery!
00:32:47Slavery!
00:32:48Slavery!
00:32:50Slavery!
00:32:52Slavery!
00:32:52Slavery!
00:32:53Slavery!
00:32:53Slavery!
00:32:53Slavery!
00:32:53Slavery!
00:32:53And you, Isaac, you're no consul.
00:32:55Who are you?
00:32:57He's just a eunuch.
00:32:59Fire him.
00:33:01And throw him in the dungeon with the rest of them.
00:33:04He really was the Emperor.
00:33:07I chose wrong.
00:33:10Mercy, Your Majesty, please!
00:33:12I was blind.
00:33:14Please, have mercy, Your Majesty!
00:33:17You didn't show Julia mercy.
00:33:20Why should I show you any?
00:33:25It can't be.
00:33:27How...
00:33:28They forced me!
00:33:29It was them!
00:33:30Please, we're relatives!
00:33:32Spare me!
00:33:40Mercy, Your Majesty!
00:33:42Please!
00:33:43Please!
00:33:44Please!
00:33:45Please!
00:33:45Please!
00:33:45Please!
00:33:46Please!
00:33:46Please!
00:33:46Please!
00:33:52Go to that girl.
00:33:59Julia, you're awake.
00:34:01Are you hurt?
00:34:02I'm okay.
00:34:04Lie down.
00:34:08The physician said you need rest.
00:34:10How did we get here?
00:34:12I heard Empress.
00:34:13His Majesty.
00:34:15Who saved us?
00:34:18Break the engagement.
00:34:20She isn't right for you.
00:34:22Mother, she's different.
00:34:23She's the woman I've chosen.
00:34:25The royal family isn't simple.
00:34:27If you want her, she must pass my test.
00:34:29But you cannot tell her the truth yet.
00:34:31Matter Senaris saved us.
00:34:34Why would she save us?
00:34:35Do you know her?
00:34:37I'm just a beggar.
00:34:39She just happened to be passing by.
00:34:41Don't worry.
00:34:42I'll protect you from now on.
00:34:43She's giving us jobs in the palace.
00:34:45You as a maid.
00:34:46Me as a guard.
00:34:47It's wonderful.
00:34:48We can save up for our own home.
00:34:53I'm sorry, Julia.
00:34:55For keeping the truth from you.
00:34:57Forgive me.
00:35:03Miss Julia, you will be working here.
00:35:09I will come find you as soon as I am free.
00:35:11All right.
00:35:12I will work hard so we can earn money together and build our little home.
00:35:19Damon, you really should have given me some notice before bringing in a newcomer.
00:35:25Lady Liar, this is Julia.
00:35:27She's new to the palace and still learning the ropes.
00:35:29I'd appreciate it if you could look on.
00:35:30Do not let her suffer any mistreatment.
00:35:34I have much to learn.
00:35:35I would be grateful for your instruction, my lady.
00:35:38Rest assured, Damon.
00:35:39I will see to Julia personally.
00:35:41I won't have her doing me near labor.
00:35:43I shall instruct her in the proper editict myself.
00:35:48Marcus.
00:35:51Something feels wrong.
00:35:53I came here to be a maid.
00:35:55Yet why do they look at me as if I were the empress?
00:36:02Perhaps Lady Liar is simply kind-hearted towards newcomers.
00:36:05Don't overthink it.
00:36:06Just focus on your tasks.
00:36:08Julia.
00:36:10Come with me.
00:36:11I will show you how to achieve the scrolls.
00:36:17I will show you how to achieve the scrolls.
00:36:24You, new girl, start by scrubbing this floor.
00:36:27If you dare to slack off, you'll regret it.
00:36:28Tasks were assigned in advance.
00:36:30Why are you shivving your duties onto me?
00:36:32We are all kneeling here scrubbing in the filth.
00:36:36Yet a newcomer gets the easy work?
00:36:38It isn't right.
00:36:40Exactly.
00:36:40Why should you receive such favor from Lady Liar?
00:37:03A wooden ring.
00:37:04This is the emperor's own heirloom.
00:37:06Quick.
00:37:07Find Lady Liar.
00:37:08Tell her we've caught a thief.
00:37:09I don't care about any emperor.
00:37:11This was a gift from my husband.
00:37:13Give it back.
00:37:14Your husband?
00:37:16What do you dream your husband is Augustus himself?
00:37:19You're a thief!
00:37:20Hold her down.
00:37:21Don't let her escape.
00:37:24Halt.
00:37:26All of you.
00:37:29Marta Senatus.
00:37:31It is far too filthy here.
00:37:32Perhaps you should return?
00:37:34I have taken this disguise to see for myself what kind of person Julia truly is.
00:37:38Remember, she must not know who I am.
00:37:43Silence!
00:37:46I leave for one moment and you descend into chaos.
00:37:56Lady Liar, Julia has stolen the emperor's ring.
00:37:59How can a thief be allowed in the palace?
00:38:02You must have her seized and cast out at once.
00:38:04Lady Liar, please let me explain.
00:38:06It isn't what it seems.
00:38:07The truth is...
00:38:08Enough!
00:38:08Hand over the ring!
00:38:10The ring is mine.
00:38:11I did not steal it.
00:38:13I said give it to me!
00:38:22It truly is his majesty's ring.
00:38:27This ring really is Marcus's.
00:38:29Marcus.
00:38:31He gave her something so sacred.
00:38:33She is bold enough to steal from the emperor.
00:38:36Who knows what she'll do next?
00:38:38She should be beaten to death.
00:38:40Lady Liar, please listen.
00:38:42This ring was given to me by the person I hold most dear.
00:38:45It was not stolen.
00:38:47And it certainly does not belong to the emperor.
00:38:49If it's proven that this ring belongs to Marcus, won't his identity be exposed?
00:38:54I shall keep this ring for now.
00:38:56Once the truth is revealed, it will be returned to you.
00:39:01Thanks.
00:39:02Listen well.
00:39:03This is official Dora.
00:39:05She will manage you alongside me.
00:39:08Keep to your places.
00:39:09If anyone has found ID or deceptive, you shall taste the lash.
00:39:13Yes, ma'am.
00:39:14Drawing in the palace is forbidden.
00:39:16Your punishment is latrine duty.
00:39:18You shall not eat until they are spotless.
00:39:20Yes, my lady.
00:39:30At least this will dull the stench.
00:39:33Your majesty.
00:39:34Lady Leora, your childhood sweetheart is back.
00:39:37Won't you go and see her?
00:39:39Sweetheart.
00:39:39Don't use that word for us.
00:39:41I have no heart for her.
00:39:43Leave us.
00:39:43I am going to see Julia.
00:39:45Your presence will expose my identity sooner or later.
00:40:00They have you cleaning this filth?
00:40:02This is a disgrace!
00:40:04I'm going to find whoever did this.
00:40:05I'll make them answer for it right now!
00:40:15It's fine.
00:40:15It's just a task.
00:40:18I can adore it.
00:40:20I won't stand for this.
00:40:21I'll find a way to get you away from this place as soon as possible.
00:40:28Tell me, what is the truth about that ring?
00:40:30Why do they insist it belongs to the Emperor?
00:40:33It was my father.
00:40:34He once killed a great bear with his bare hands.
00:40:37Augustus rewarded his courage by gifting him that ring.
00:40:39Oh, that explains it.
00:40:42They keep shouting about the Emperor, and I feared you were keeping secrets from me.
00:40:47You there!
00:40:48Since when is the palace a place for idle gossip?
00:41:02It's official, Dora!
00:41:04Go, quickly!
00:41:05Don't let her see you, or we'll be in trouble.
00:41:19Is the latrine finished?
00:41:22It is all finished, my lady.
00:41:24Then move on to the courtyard.
00:41:26I want it's bossless.
00:41:27Not a single leaf must remain.
00:41:29Yes, my lady.
00:41:30Finally, it's done.
00:41:32My back is nearly breaking.
00:41:43What right do you have to throw my things?
00:41:46Newcomers sleep in the stables.
00:41:48That is the palace way.
00:41:50Get moving!
00:41:52Better hurry, before the dung piles up and you've nowhere to lie down.
00:41:57It is freezing tonight.
00:41:59How can you expect a person to sleep in the stables?
00:42:09I heard that horse, Yenna, can keep you warm.
00:42:13We aren't lying.
00:42:14These are the palace rules.
00:42:16You wouldn't dare refuse, would you?
00:42:21Why are you targeting me?
00:42:23What have I done?
00:42:25You're a thief.
00:42:27Official Dora was merciful.
00:42:29You're lucky you're going to the stables and not the dungeon.
00:42:33I am no thief.
00:42:35Stop your malicious lies.
00:42:37Not a thief?
00:42:39Next you'll say the emperor himself gave it to you.
00:42:43Look at yourself.
00:42:44You're not fit to touch his shadow.
00:42:55I just need my blanket.
00:42:57I cannot survive the night in the stables without it.
00:42:59Such bold words.
00:43:01This is the palace.
00:43:02Nothing here is yours.
00:43:04Don't think your protectors can save you from our ways.
00:43:06You're not going in.
00:43:08Out of my way.
00:43:22Julia, are you all right?
00:43:24Are you hurt?
00:43:25Stop!
00:43:26You dare raise a hand within these walls?
00:43:28Have you grown tired of living?
00:43:30Commander Damon?
00:43:32What are you doing here?
00:43:34Wait, then who is he?
00:43:39You have signed your death warrant.
00:43:41Have mercy, your majesty.
00:43:43Please spare us.
00:43:45It wasn't intentional.
00:43:46We never meant for her to get hurt.
00:43:52You...
00:43:52You are Augustus?
00:43:58Is it true?
00:44:00Are you truly the emperor?
00:44:13Don't reveal your real identity.
00:44:19Forgive me, my lady.
00:44:21I was just passing by when I saw this girl being mistreated.
00:44:24I acted without thinking to help her.
00:44:26I meant no disrespect.
00:44:27Thank the gods.
00:44:29He's just a guard.
00:44:30He nearly scared me to death.
00:44:31But Damon, you never leave the emperor's side.
00:44:33Why are you with this common guard?
00:44:39Damon.
00:44:41What is going on here?
00:44:43Who is this man?
00:44:49Oh, oh right.
00:44:50This young guard here happens to look a bit like his majesty.
00:44:53I came to the palace specifically to question his background,
00:44:56fearing someone might impersonate the emperor and cause trouble.
00:44:58You.
00:44:59You're a new guard.
00:45:00How can you be so ignorant of the rules?
00:45:02Don't you know the palace isn't a place to wander in and out of?
00:45:05Apologize at once.
00:45:11I wouldn't dare do it again.
00:45:14It is all my fault.
00:45:16This guard was only worried about me,
00:45:18which is why he rushed in so recklessly.
00:45:20If you know you are wrong,
00:45:21then leave at once.
00:45:22Get out of my sight.
00:45:38After such a serious incident,
00:45:40official Dora didn't punish her at all?
00:45:41Talk about favoritism.
00:45:42And that business with the emperor's ring,
00:45:44it was completely hushed up too.
00:45:46I have no idea who is backing her,
00:45:48but they must be incredibly powerful.
00:45:51Tell me,
00:45:52if the real Augustus found out someone stole his ring
00:45:54and dared to impersonate him,
00:45:56what would he do?
00:45:56Would he order an immediate execution?
00:46:00Julia is a good girl.
00:46:03She is hardworking,
00:46:04steady,
00:46:05and has a pure heart.
00:46:06Mother,
00:46:06does that mean Julia has passed your test?
00:46:09I'm going to tell her the truth right now.
00:46:11I will make her the empress of Rome
00:46:12and never let her suffer another moment of grievement.
00:46:14My approval does not mean
00:46:16the nobles of the senate
00:46:17will accept a commoner
00:46:18as their empress.
00:46:21Next month is Lupergaria.
00:46:23Why not let Julia oversee the festival sacrifices?
00:46:26If she handles the rituals perfectly,
00:46:27it will prove she is the divinely chosen empress.
00:46:29It will show those nobles
00:46:30that her abilities far surpassed
00:46:32those of their pampered daughters.
00:46:34Very well.
00:46:34Give this ring back to her.
00:46:37Consider it my promise.
00:46:42Julia!
00:46:43Great news!
00:46:45Martyr Senius has decided
00:46:46to put you in charge
00:46:47of next month's Lupergaria sacrifices.
00:46:49But I don't know the first thing about it.
00:46:51Lupergaria is so important,
00:46:52I'm afraid I'll fail.
00:46:53Don't worry.
00:46:54I have full confidence in you.
00:46:56You are more than capable.
00:46:59Besides,
00:46:59I'll be helping you from the shadows.
00:47:02You won't have to do it alone.
00:47:08Oh, and these are palace pastries.
00:47:10I saved them specifically for you.
00:47:18I've never tasted anything so wonderful.
00:47:21If you like them,
00:47:22I'll bring them to you often.
00:47:23Often?
00:47:24That might not be wise.
00:47:25I heard there are guards
00:47:26patrolling nearby constantly.
00:47:28We shouldn't meet so openly.
00:47:29What if someone sees us?
00:47:30Trust me, they won't.
00:47:32Julia,
00:47:32once the Lupergaria festival is over,
00:47:34wait for me in this courtyard.
00:47:35I have something very important to tell you.
00:47:39Okay.
00:47:45It has been three full days,
00:47:48and yet not a single summons from his majesty.
00:47:51Has he completely lost all regard for me?
00:47:55I heard.
00:47:56His majesty has been frequently visiting the servants' quarters
00:47:59to see a girl in secret.
00:48:01What?
00:48:01I am his childhood sweetheart,
00:48:04the future Empress of Rome.
00:48:05Which slit dares to be so bold
00:48:07as to seduce the emperor right under my nose?
00:48:17My hand!
00:48:19You dare burn me!
00:48:21Forgive me, Lady Leora.
00:48:23It wasn't on purpose.
00:48:24I was just so nervous.
00:48:26Please, have mercy!
00:48:27Lady Leora is the treasurer's daughter,
00:48:29a high noble of the Senate
00:48:31and our future Empress.
00:48:32Eva has truly offended someone
00:48:34she can't afford to cross.
00:48:36Lupergaria is almost here.
00:48:38With my hand like this,
00:48:39how can I stand beside the Emperor for the ritual?
00:48:42How can I be worthy of being Empress?
00:48:45Guards!
00:48:46Take this wretch to the Colosseum
00:48:47and feed her to the beasts!
00:48:50Mercy!
00:48:50Lady Leora, please spare me!
00:48:52I'll never do it again!
00:48:53I can heal that burn for you.
00:49:02You?
00:49:03Who are you?
00:49:04My name is Julia.
00:49:05My father is a spice merchant,
00:49:07so I have been familiar with herbs since childhood.
00:49:09I know of a plant that can soothe burns.
00:49:12It is very effective.
00:49:14A merchant's daughter?
00:49:16My lady, why not try it?
00:49:18You have nothing to lose.
00:49:19If she fails to heal you,
00:49:20it won't be too late to punish her then.
00:49:29I have one request.
00:49:32I knew it.
00:49:33Fine.
00:49:34How many gold coins do you want?
00:49:35I want no gold.
00:49:37I only ask that if I heal your hand,
00:49:39you spare Eva.
00:49:41Playing the Morton, are we?
00:49:43Fine, Julia, I agree.
00:49:45But mark my words.
00:49:46If you fail,
00:49:47your lives are forfeit.
00:49:48Both of them.
00:49:53Truly doesn't hurt as much.
00:49:55And the swelling has gone down.
00:49:58Apply this juice to the wound every day for a few days.
00:50:01The burn will heal quickly without leaving a scar.
00:50:05I used to bully you constantly,
00:50:07yet today you saved my life.
00:50:10I am so sorry, Julia.
00:50:12Please, forgive me.
00:50:14The past is in the past.
00:50:17Let's not speak of it again.
00:50:19From now on,
00:50:21we shall be like sisters
00:50:22and look out for one each other.
00:50:27I don't.
00:50:41My lady,
00:50:42please do not be angry.
00:50:43If his majesty truly loved her,
00:50:44why would he leave her as a mere maid?
00:50:46She is no threat to your position.
00:50:47True.
00:50:48His majesty is likely just bored
00:50:50and finds her a novelty.
00:50:53Perhaps I judged her too harshly.
00:50:55My lady,
00:50:56that Julia
00:50:57is nothing but a slut
00:50:59who seduces every man she sees.
00:51:01She is pure evil.
00:51:05I am a maid in the domestic office with Julia
00:51:08and I know her better than anyone.
00:51:09Not only is she lazy,
00:51:10but she constantly flirts with the guards.
00:51:12Worse, she is a thief.
00:51:14She stole the emperor's own ring.
00:51:17The emperor's ring?
00:51:19You mean the wooden one?
00:51:20The one he's worn since childhood?
00:51:22The one meant for the future empress?
00:51:24Such an audacious wretch!
00:51:25Her intentions are treasonous!
00:51:27I will never let her get away with this!
00:51:30My lady,
00:51:30I heard that slut is in charge
00:51:32of organizing the Luperia sacrifices.
00:51:34I have a plan.
00:51:36Do you want to have her minor, Charlie?
00:51:39Good.
00:51:40We'll do it.
00:51:42Julia,
00:51:44Lupergarious will be the day you die!
00:52:00Be careful.
00:52:01Whatever you do,
00:52:02don't drop it.
00:52:04Julia,
00:52:04you've done a magnificent job!
00:52:06The nobles are all praising
00:52:06how well the sacrifice was organized.
00:52:08Even Matersenius looked pleased
00:52:10and couldn't stop complimenting you.
00:52:11That is a relief.
00:52:12I'm glad I didn't fail the trust
00:52:14Matersenius placed in me.
00:52:15I heard your little guard
00:52:17is waiting for you
00:52:18in the backyard.
00:52:18He says he has something
00:52:20important to tell you.
00:52:21Go on.
00:52:23Assassin!
00:52:24Catch the Lupercali assassin!
00:52:26Block all exits.
00:52:27No one is allowed to leave.
00:52:28What?
00:52:28What's happening?
00:52:30How could there be
00:52:31an assassin at the sacrifice?
00:52:32An assassin disguised as a guard
00:52:34just tried to stab Lady Leora,
00:52:36the treasurer's daughter.
00:52:38Lady Leora is the daughter
00:52:39of the treasurer
00:52:40and the companion
00:52:41of His Majesty's youth.
00:52:42She is our
00:52:43desestined empress.
00:52:45This is an act
00:52:46of high treason
00:52:47that must be investigated
00:52:48to the fullest extent.
00:52:49What are you doing?
00:52:52I am innocent!
00:52:54I truly did nothing wrong!
00:52:56I didn't conspire
00:52:58with any assassin!
00:52:59You cannot do this to me!
00:53:03Lady Leora,
00:53:05Julia has been brought
00:53:06before you.
00:53:11Lady Leora,
00:53:12I truly know
00:53:13nothing of this.
00:53:14You were the one
00:53:15in charge of
00:53:16organizing the sacrifice.
00:53:18An assassin slipped
00:53:19in under your watch?
00:53:20Do you really dare
00:53:20to say you knew nothing?
00:53:24How dare you arrange
00:53:26an assassination
00:53:27at the Luperalia Festival?
00:53:28What is your motive?
00:53:30Have you been jealous
00:53:31of my position
00:53:31as future empress
00:53:32and decided
00:53:33to get rid of me?
00:53:34I truly didn't.
00:53:35Lady Leora,
00:53:36I was responsible
00:53:37for the event
00:53:38but I swear
00:53:38I know nothing
00:53:39about an assassin.
00:53:40You refuse to confess?
00:53:42Don't be a fool, Julia.
00:53:44The whip will wring
00:53:45the truth out of you
00:53:46soon enough.
00:53:47Weren't you given
00:53:48full responsibility
00:53:49for the Lupastia sacrifice?
00:53:51An assassin infiltrated
00:53:53a heavily guarded site
00:53:54and you claim ignorance?
00:53:56That is gross negligence
00:53:57and negligence
00:53:58is a capital offense.
00:54:00Indeed.
00:54:01The palace is guarded
00:54:02day and night.
00:54:03No ordinary person
00:54:05could simply walk in
00:54:06unless Julia conspired
00:54:07with the assassin
00:54:08and let him in.
00:54:09There is no other explanation.
00:54:12I truly know nothing
00:54:13of the assassin.
00:54:14Please, Lady Leora,
00:54:15give me some time.
00:54:16I will find the truth
00:54:17and prove my innocence.
00:54:18Give you time?
00:54:20You merely seek
00:54:21to crawl to his majesty
00:54:21and hide behind his favor.
00:54:23Do not think
00:54:24your transparent schemes
00:54:25escape my notice.
00:54:26His majesty?
00:54:28Still acting?
00:54:29You think I don't know?
00:54:30You are the slut
00:54:31who has been seducing
00:54:32the emperor
00:54:32with a face like that.
00:54:34No wonder
00:54:34you're so restless.
00:54:36Even if his majesty
00:54:37chose a commoner,
00:54:38it wouldn't be
00:54:38a lowly rat like you!
00:54:42I have never seduced
00:54:43the emperor.
00:54:44I've never even seen
00:54:45his face.
00:54:46How could I seduce him?
00:54:47Have you forgotten
00:54:48that I healed your burn
00:54:49just two days ago?
00:54:51How can you repay
00:54:52my mindness
00:54:52with such outrageous
00:54:53accusations?
00:54:54You dare question me?
00:54:56You arrogant wretch!
00:54:57God, seize this
00:54:59unrepentant slut!
00:55:00Look closely, Julia!
00:55:02You are standing
00:55:03before the daughter
00:55:04of the treasurer,
00:55:04the woman chosen
00:55:05by Marta Senius
00:55:06to be emperor.
00:55:07To talk back now
00:55:08is pure suicide!
00:55:10If you are
00:55:10the treasurer's daughter
00:55:11and the future empress,
00:55:12you should be reasonable
00:55:13and just.
00:55:14I have never even
00:55:15seen the emperor.
00:55:16How could I seduce him?
00:55:18Besides,
00:55:19I am already married.
00:55:20I would never
00:55:20seek another.
00:55:24You are married?
00:55:25Who is your husband?
00:55:28His...
00:55:28His majesty?
00:55:35My lady,
00:55:36don't let her fool you!
00:55:37This ring was stolen
00:55:38by her husband.
00:55:39Her husband is just
00:55:40a minor guard
00:55:41in the palace.
00:55:42I saw it myself.
00:55:43They steal at night
00:55:44and flirt openly
00:55:45during the day.
00:55:46It is an absolute outrage!
00:55:48My husband is indeed
00:55:50a guard,
00:55:50but we have never
00:55:51been inappropriate
00:55:52in public,
00:55:53and we are certainly
00:55:54not seen.
00:55:55As if anyone
00:55:55would believe you!
00:55:56Lady Leora,
00:55:57I bet the assassin
00:55:58who attacked you
00:55:59was none other
00:55:59than her guard husband!
00:56:01This rash on my face
00:56:02has lasted for days.
00:56:03The court physicians
00:56:04have prescribed
00:56:05so many ointments,
00:56:06but none of them
00:56:07seem to work.
00:56:08Matasinatus,
00:56:09I heard that Julia
00:56:10healed Lady Leora's burn
00:56:11with just a handful
00:56:12of herbs last month.
00:56:13Perhaps we should
00:56:14let Julia examine you.
00:56:16I didn't realize
00:56:17Julia was so skilled.
00:56:18Go and summon her.
00:56:20Once this rash is gone,
00:56:21it will be time
00:56:22for his majesty
00:56:22to name her empress.
00:56:24Matasenaris!
00:56:26Terrible news!
00:56:27Lady Leora's arrested Julia
00:56:29and is about
00:56:29to have her tortured.
00:56:32This is madness.
00:56:33Quick, come with me.
00:56:35You refuse to find the truth,
00:56:38choosing instead
00:56:38to frame the innocent
00:56:40and abuse your power.
00:56:41It is your actions
00:56:43that offend the gods,
00:56:44and you will surely
00:56:45be punished.
00:56:47Gods!
00:56:47Fetch the whip!
00:56:48I will have a confession
00:56:49from her today.
00:56:50Palace law dictates
00:56:51that no noble
00:56:52has the right to use
00:56:53private torture
00:56:54except for Matasenus
00:56:55and the emperor.
00:56:58My lady,
00:56:59I shall go to Matasenus now
00:57:01and get an order
00:57:02to have both her
00:57:03and her guard husband
00:57:04arrested and executed
00:57:05as a warning to others.
00:57:10And who exactly
00:57:11is it you want me
00:57:12to execute?
00:57:18Release her!
00:57:24You show no respect
00:57:25for palace law
00:57:26and use illegal torture.
00:57:28Who gave you permission
00:57:29to cause such chaos
00:57:30during the Lupefaria sacrifice?
00:57:32I am the emperor's
00:57:33chosen companion,
00:57:34the future empress of Rome.
00:57:36To discipline a lowly servant
00:57:38is my prerogative.
00:57:39I will soon rule these halls.
00:57:41Who are you to stand
00:57:42in my path
00:57:42and preach to me?
00:57:44Insolence!
00:57:45Do you truly have no idea
00:57:46to whom you are speaking?
00:57:47You're just some
00:57:48lowborn old official.
00:57:49If I don't teach you a lesson,
00:57:51you'll never learn your place.
00:57:52Guards, seize her as well!
00:57:53I never imagined
00:57:54you would be so venerful
00:57:55and disrespectful of rank.
00:57:56I was blind to let someone
00:57:58like you near his majesty.
00:58:00You think your mate
00:58:01is Senenus?
00:58:02You're just an old woman
00:58:03too ashamed
00:58:04to show her face.
00:58:05You must have a death wish.
00:58:09Let's see who dares.
00:58:12Guards!
00:58:13Bring me my whip!
00:58:14I'm going to teach
00:58:15this arrogant old crone
00:58:16and a lesson
00:58:17she'll never forget.
00:58:18Lady Leora,
00:58:19you cannot!
00:58:19Palace law forbids
00:58:20the private whipping
00:58:21of court officials.
00:58:22If His Majesty
00:58:23or Martyr Senenus
00:58:24finds out,
00:58:24they will be furious.
00:58:25Please, have mercy.
00:58:26Get away from me,
00:58:27you slut!
00:58:44Why isn't Julia here yet?
00:58:46The sacrifice ended
00:58:47quite a while ago.
00:58:50Could something have happened?
00:58:52Your Majesty,
00:58:53it is a disaster.
00:58:54Lady Leora has arrested Julia
00:58:55and is attempting to torture
00:58:56your mother,
00:58:57Matasenus.
00:58:59Damn it!
00:59:00Leora is cruel and arrogant.
00:59:02Something has gone wrong!
00:59:14Leora,
00:59:15you dare commit such violence
00:59:16and harm palace staff
00:59:18at a sacred site?
00:59:19Have you no fear
00:59:20of the gods' wrath?
00:59:23Lady Leora,
00:59:24it was I who offended you.
00:59:25It is all my fault.
00:59:26Please,
00:59:27do not involve
00:59:28official Dora.
00:59:31You certainly love
00:59:32playing the Martyr.
00:59:33Since you are so eager
00:59:34to take this old
00:59:34crone's punishment,
00:59:35I will grant your wish.
00:59:36I'll make sure you learn
00:59:37the price of disobedience
00:59:38so you never meddle again.
00:59:40Enough, Leora.
00:59:40In the name of Matasenus,
00:59:42I warn you for the last time,
00:59:43do not push this too far.
00:59:45The Emperor
00:59:45will never forgive you
00:59:46for this.
00:59:47You're just a lowly old servant
00:59:48too afraid to show your face,
00:59:49yet you dare claim
00:59:50to be Matasenus?
00:59:51Today,
00:59:52I shall punish you
00:59:53on behalf of the Emperor.
00:59:54The assassin has been apprehended.
00:59:56He waits your judgment
00:59:57at the threshold.
00:59:57Bring him in at once.
01:00:00Let everyone see
01:00:01the ironclack proof
01:00:02that this slut
01:00:03conspired with an assassin.
01:00:11Julia conspired
01:00:13with this guard
01:00:14to breach palace security
01:00:15and arrange
01:00:16an assassination against me.
01:00:18Guards,
01:00:19execute them both
01:00:20immediately as an example.
01:00:26I would like to see
01:00:28who dares.
01:00:30Your Majesty,
01:00:31how could it be you?
01:00:36Mother.
01:00:39His Majesty Augustus
01:00:41Matasenorius.
01:00:49How is this possible?
01:00:51How could she be
01:00:52Matasenorius?
01:00:53Leora,
01:00:54I believe that
01:00:55as a daughter of nobility
01:00:57you would be wise
01:00:58and kind.
01:00:59I never expected
01:01:00such heartless cruelty.
01:01:02You insult your superiors
01:01:03and abuse the law.
01:01:05You dream of being
01:01:07Empress?
01:01:07Never.
01:01:09Never.
01:01:11Never.
01:01:12No.
01:01:13Please.
01:01:14Matasenorius,
01:01:15I know I was wrong.
01:01:16Please.
01:01:17Forgive me.
01:01:19Your Majesty,
01:01:20we grew up together.
01:01:21Please, please,
01:01:22do not abandon me.
01:01:24You attempted to use
01:01:25illegal torching
01:01:26without even knowing
01:01:27the truth.
01:01:28If I hadn't arrived in time
01:01:30you would have committed
01:01:30a terrible crime.
01:01:32This is your own doing.
01:01:33Majesty,
01:01:34I didn't mean it.
01:01:35It was all Kaya.
01:01:38It was Kaya
01:01:40who gave me these ideas.
01:01:42Kaya for spreading
01:01:43malicious rumours
01:01:44and violating palace law
01:01:46who are sent to the
01:01:46Coliseum as a slave.
01:01:49Matasenorius,
01:01:49I was wrong.
01:01:50Please spare me this one.
01:01:54Your Majesty,
01:01:56I may have been wrong
01:01:57but Julia was the
01:01:58organizer of the
01:01:59Lupagania sacrifice.
01:02:00She must be held
01:02:01responsible for
01:02:02the assassination attempt.
01:02:05If Your Majesty
01:02:06hadn't been here today,
01:02:07Lady Leora
01:02:08would have been
01:02:09in terrible danger.
01:02:10Your Majesty,
01:02:11my life is of no consequence
01:02:13but the safety of the palace
01:02:14is paramount.
01:02:15Julia must be punished.
01:02:18If assassins can enter
01:02:19the palace like this,
01:02:20who will protect us
01:02:21in the future?
01:02:22I beg you,
01:02:23punish Julia.
01:02:31If there is evidence
01:02:32that Julia is innocent,
01:02:34what should be the fate
01:02:35of those who framed her?
01:02:36Leora,
01:02:37I am asking you,
01:02:38if Julia is proven innocent,
01:02:40what should be your punishment?
01:02:41I am willing to be
01:02:42demoted to a slave
01:02:43and never set foot
01:02:44in the palace again.
01:02:45Fine.
01:02:46It is settled.
01:02:47It is settled.
01:02:55Your Majesty's foresight
01:02:56was undearing.
01:02:57As commanded,
01:02:58I stationed sentries
01:02:59at every exit.
01:03:00We captured the assassin
01:03:01as he fled
01:03:02and have secured
01:03:03his confession.
01:03:04Mercy, Your Majesty.
01:03:05It was Lady Leora's father,
01:03:07the treasurer,
01:03:08who forced me.
01:03:09He made me disguise myself
01:03:11as a guard
01:03:11and attack Lady Leora
01:03:12to frame Julia.
01:03:13He wanted to get rid of Julia
01:03:15so Leora could become empress.
01:03:17I had no choice.
01:03:18Please spare me.
01:03:27Do you know why
01:03:28I believe in Julia?
01:03:30Because she is my wife,
01:03:32the true empress
01:03:33of the Roman Empire.
01:03:38Cast Leora out of the palace.
01:03:40She is barred
01:03:41from entering forever.
01:03:42Furthermore,
01:03:43arrest the treasurer
01:03:44and throw him into the dungeon
01:03:46to await his sentence.
01:03:52I hate you!
01:03:53If it weren't for you,
01:03:54all of this would be mine.
01:03:55The throne would be mine
01:03:56and the emperor would be mine.
01:03:57You ruined everything!
01:03:58You are wrong.
01:03:59The person who brought you
01:04:00to this end was never me.
01:04:02It was you.
01:04:03Your own greed,
01:04:04jealousy and cruelty
01:04:05led you here.
01:04:06You have only yourself to blame.
01:04:11I am sorry
01:04:12for all the suffering
01:04:13you've endured.
01:04:15It doesn't matter now,
01:04:16Your Majesty.
01:04:17Do not call me
01:04:17Your Majesty.
01:04:18Call me Marcus.
01:04:20Only you may call me that.
01:04:21Marcus,
01:04:22now that the guilty
01:04:23have been punished,
01:04:24all misunderstandings
01:04:25are resolved.
01:04:30From this day forth,
01:04:31I declare before the gods,
01:04:33Julia is the eternal
01:04:34and only empress
01:04:35of the Roman Empire.
01:04:37the world.
