DO KYUNG-SOO

NAM JI-HYUN

CHO SEONG-HA, CHO HAN-CHEUL

KIM SEON-HO, HAN SO-HEE, KIM JAE-YOUNG

Are you saying you'll live as Won-deuk
even though you're not Won-deuk?

I don't want

to regain any of my memory.

Why not?

Because I want

to stay by your side.

Stop.

Thank goodness

that I am not too late.

What brings Your Highness
all the way here?

I heard you had returned to the palace.

What business

brings you here?

I missed you.

I do not think I can live without you.

So?

What will you do, then?

Will you make me
your concubine or something?

I don't see why not.
I am the Crown Prince after all.

Taking a woman
is the first thing you'll do

upon your return to the palace?

Would you

not care even if I just left like this?

Will you be fine

even if we part ways like this?

Yes.

Then what was it that we had?

If that wasn't love,

then what was it?

Is the Crown Princess

aware

that you're here now?

You should return

to the palace.

Do not come any closer.

Not even a single step.

This is where we must

sever our ties.

No, don't.

I can't let him go like this.

Your Highness.

You must return to the palace.

Your Highness.

Please.

EPISODE 13

HEEL

What is this?

Are you asking because you do not know?

Correct.

It means "heel."

No, Your Highness.

This is a riddle.

Your Highness must find out
what this truly means

and solve the riddle.

-Why must I?
-Because you are the one who asked me

this riddle.

HEEL

-I have a favor to ask of you.
-Tell me what it is.

Find her.

And protect her.

Make sure she is safe,
no matter where she is.

My job as the governor
keeps me busy enough.

Would you like a demotion?

Then you will have plenty of time
on your hands.

Is this a threat?

No, it isn't.

This is an order.

My gosh.

There are still some spores
that haven't blown away in the wind.

Well...

You've been sitting here for a while.
What's on your mind?

You look deeply worried even from behind.

No, it's nothing.

You seem like a great person,
so I am relieved.

My gosh.

Thank you for raising
and taking good care of my sister.

Gosh, you don't need to thank me.

I didn't do anything.
She grew up on her own.

My daughter, Hong-sim,

is kind, thoughtful, and brave.

She's perfect in every way.

You see,

the recent incident
was a big shock to her,

but don't worry.

She's a strong girl,
so I know she'll overcome it.

For sure.

Gosh. What are you doing?

There's something I must tell you.

You, the Crown Prince, ventured
outside the palace walls alone at night?

Where did you go?

And who on earth did you meet?

I apologize.

Because I called off
Seowon's installation as Crown Prince,

I lost my dignity as the King.

Despite that,
I reinstated you as Crown Prince.

Have you forgotten
the weight of your responsibilities?

Even if you do your utmost,
it may barely be enough.

How could you
disappoint your father like this?

You are an unfilial son
and a disloyal subject.

Are you

perhaps displeased

by my return?

Crown Prince.

Your Majesty.

I am to blame for all of this.

For it is my fault that I failed
to better assist His Highness,

please reprimand me instead.

Crown Prince, return to your quarters
and reflect on what you did.

I did not mean to drag you into this.

Please do not be concerned.

However, it is extremely dangerous

for Your Highness to leave the palace
unaccompanied by a bodyguard.

If you ever feel suffocated
here at the palace, please let me know.

I will accompany Your Highness,
anytime and anywhere.

How come you are not asking
where I went and why I went out?

You have returned safely,
and that is enough for me.

However, should something like this

-happen again--
-I will not let it affect you

or the Crown Princess.

Your Highness.

Ensuring your safety
is my utmost priority.

How dare you.

How dare you.

How dare you!

How dare you.

Because of you, I...

Because of you... It is all your fault!

Watch and learn.

This is what you get
for failing to properly serve

His Highness.

HEEL

CHERRY BLOSSOM

The character for "cherry blossom"
and the character for "heel."

This is the secret letter

left to me by Your Highness
before leaving for the rain ritual.

You are the only one

who knows why you left the letter
and what it means.

Only you hold the answer.

HEEL

By the same token,
only you know who attacked you

to assassinate you.

Solve the riddle

and regain your memory.

Only then

can you identify your enemy.

What's wrong? Are you getting tired?

Gosh, let me carry that for you.

Why did you insist
on bringing that heavy thing?

Are you sure

my brother is waiting for us at the pier?

Yes.

He could've left with us.

Why did he leave earlier?
He didn't even tell me anything.

I didn't ask.

Father. You know something, don't you?

Me?

Gosh, I know nothing.

I haven't seen him since last night.

You'd better tell me the truth.

If you don't, I won't even budge.

My goodness. I'm sure it's nothing.

He just said he had to stop by somewhere.
He said he'd be right back.

He told me not to worry about a thing
and just wait for him there.

Where did he have to go?

Where is he now?

Okay, so you won't tell me?

Fine.

I guess we'll miss the wherry, then.

He went to Hanyang!

He said he'd be back very soon.

Hanyang?

I can't believe you didn't wake me up.

I told you that I had to leave early today
because of the envoys.

How could you...

You little... I will teach you a lesson
when I return home.

I must get back at you. You're so dead.

Gosh, that hurt.

Hey.

Are you headed to the palace?

Are all the preparations for the envoys
coming along nicely?

You need not be concerned, Your Majesty.

Even when Envoy Wang was here
two years ago,

he looked favorably on His Highness.

I heard he was delighted

with His Highness' gift.

Hence,
I would like to prepare the same gift.

May I ask you
what that gift was, Your Highness?

I believe it was a fan with a poem on it.

Was it the ojukseon?

-No, it was the hapjukseon.
-Your Highness.

Do you not remember

the gift you gave him?

If he looked favorably on me,

I am sure the gift was not the reason.

It must've been because he thought
that our opinions and interests coincided.

Your Majesty.

I do not think

the First Vice-Premier should attend
the welcome banquet.

Because of their argument
at the previous welcome banquet,

the envoys will not be pleased
to see him again.

Upsetting them
won't be good for His Highness.

Misunderstandings can be resolved.

Even friends

make efforts to reconcile
when they drift apart.

This is about our diplomatic relations,

so avoiding it will not help us.

Any thoughts, First Vice-Premier?

As for this specific occasion,

it does not seem like you will be
of any help to the Crown Prince.

If I cannot be of any help
to His Highness,

I will gladly

stay out of it.

I neither remember Envoy Wang

nor my interaction with him.

I remember nothing about him.

WHAT SEEMS RIGHT MAY NOT BE RIGHT

These are the poems you
and Envoy Wang wrote two years ago.

You each wrote a poem,
using just two characters.

Do you remember which one is the poem

that you wrote?

I am certain that he does not remember
meeting Envoy Wang.

It is odd because His Highness

used to remember more details
than what was recorded

in the annals.

Those at the Royal Infirmary

told me that he is suffering
from a condition called amnesia.

He has lost

his memory?

If the half-wit Crown Prince

must meet Envoy Wang
without the First Vice-Premier...

I must say, it will be quite a sight.

However, that won't be enough.

I shall prepare a surprise gift.

What may this "surprise gift" be?

If I tell you what it is,

it will take the surprise away,

so I must keep it a secret for now.

I do not remember.

The second one is the poem
Your Highness wrote.

I will make sure a detailed report
of Envoy Wang's disposition,

his personal background,
and what you two discussed

is ready for your perusal.

Please go over it

before the banquet.

If I

make a mistake at the banquet,

then what will happen?

That...

should not happen.

It is not only for your sake

that you must hold
onto the Crown Prince title.

If you are deposed
and thrown out of the palace,

your child will not be spared

for he will be

the biggest threat to the throne
down the road.

Great timing.
Would you take a walk with me?

I must go to the Royal Music Academy
to prepare for the banquet.

I won't keep you long.

Look. If you go that way,
you'll see Gyoyeon Palace.

I have to hurry now
to go prepare for the banquet.

Why did you come today?
It'd be nice to go together.

I will let her know that you're busy.

All right. Have a safe journey back, okay?

The baby has been kicking a lot
since the morning.

I am sure we will have
a healthy, energetic boy.

Just like you when you were little.

You know about my childhood?

Of course, everyone does.

I heard you refused to study

and played warrior every day.

Warrior?

-Yes.
-Please tell me everything

that you know about me.

I should probably save that
for another time

and let you go now.

You said that you have a busy day ahead.

I'm suddenly light-headed.
Maybe it's because of all the walking.

Just a moment.

YEON SAM-SEOK, YEON SU-TONG,
YEON BUL-EOM, YEON GWI-NAM

What brings you to Hanyang?

One of our relatives is on his deathbed.

-We came to visit him.
-Yes, that's right.

You're married.

Why haven't you updated
your family register?

I got married very recently,

so we haven't had time to do it yet.

A newlywed woman

is visiting Hanyang with her father,
not her husband?

And you seem to be carrying
a lot of stuff.

-Open it up.
-My gosh.

There isn't much inside.

I told you to open it up!

-Gosh, this is--
-That belongs to me.

Your Honor.

I am the governor of Seongju.

They are carrying my belongings for me.

And as for their family register...

You see,

I've been a little busy. All good?

My gosh, I truly appreciate
how thorough and strict you are.

What is your name?

I'd like to remember your name.

My goodness. What would we have done
without you?

Talk about perfect timing.

I know. What a coincidence.

I happened to be in Hanyang
due to some business.

Thank you.

I owe you another one.

By the way, what brings you to Hanyang?

We came to take care of something.

That "something"...

I may be able to help you with it.

Thank you for the offer, but I don't want
to inconvenience you again.

Then,

how about you do me a favor

this time?

MAGISTRATE'S OFFICE

Why did you ask for me
so early in the morning?

I have so much to do
because the governor is away.

Have the villagers gather
10,000 pieces of firewood.

Pardon? 10,000 pieces?

We're expecting a heat wave.
Why do you need so much firewood?

Such insolence!

How dare you talk back to me?

Do you not know that I am close

to the First Vice-Premier,
who is the Crown Prince's father-in-law?

Ignoring my order is akin
to disobeying the First Vice-Premier,

so get moving at once!

Yes, my lord.

WE SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS

Had I known we'd part with them like this,

I would've been nicer to them.

Gosh, I know.

As they say, you don't know what you have
until it's gone.

They left a void in our hearts.

Kkeut-nyeo, let's go home.

Lord Park will get mad at us
if he sees us here.

I've got to go.

Yes, I'm glad you think that.

I must

-Yes.
-go to Hanyang.

Yes, you should.

What? Hanyang?

I know that Won-deuk isn't the type
to do such a thing.

And even if he were,
it has nothing to do with Hong-sim.

Well...

That is true, but...

Besides, Won-deuk has amnesia.

Hong-sim knew nothing
when she married him.

Whether or not
he actually committed high treason,

Hong-sim has nothing to do with it,
so why take her?

I should go there and speak for her.

Didn't you hear what Lord Park said?
Hong-sim...

Just mentioning their names
could get us in deep trouble.

If you go there, they'll say we were in
on it too and kill us with them.

You need to know

when to butt in
and when you absolutely shouldn't!

I didn't know
you were such a selfish weasel.

Don't you feel bad
for Won-deuk, Hong-sim, and Mr. Yeon?

Let's be honest. It's not like
Hong-sim wanted to marry Won-deuk.

Who's the one that forced them
to get married? The Crown Prince!

So who is to blame for all of this?

The Crown Prince, who issued
such an absurd decree before he died.

Kkeut-nyeo.

Thanks to that decree, we got married.
We are married, for goodness' sake!

So just let it go.

No, I can't!

Either you come with me,
or we go our separate ways.

What?

Are you saying Hong-sim and Won-deuk
are more important to you?

Enough, okay?

-No!
-No!

Don't you worry about them.

I really wasn't going to say this,
but Won-deuk is...

Won-deuk is

the Crown Prince.

What on earth are you talking about?

I happened to overhear it.

Won-deuk was taken away
because he is the Crown Prince.

I think Mr. Yeon and Hong-sim
had to flee and hide because of it,

because they were told
to keep it a secret.

-It's true.
-What?

What did you say?

-Gosh!
-Goodness!

Are you serious?

Won-deuk... Won-deuk is the Crown Prince?

I chucked stones at him

and even smacked him a few times
to tease him.

This can't be true.

-My gosh!
-Oh, no.

-Sir!
-My goodness.

What's wrong with him?

Your Highness, we have received word
that the envoys

will arrive at Yeongeun Gate soon.

If you run into problems,

try to buy some time.

The Minister of Defense will be there,

and those who have a knack for poetry
will also be there.

They will discreetly give you
the help you need.

But I hope

I won't need their help.

Please have a seat.

This is surely unprecedented.

I still find it very hard to believe

that the Crown Prince who was
once thought to be dead is here.

I have a calming remedy ready at hand
in case you need it.

I think you should take some of that.

On my way here, I heard some rumors

that you have changed.

Hence, I'd like to test your abilities

and confirm your competence

at the banquet today.

I am looking forward

to finding out what kinds
of challenging questions

you have prepared for me.

You won't be disappointed.

The banquet is ready.
Why don't we head over there?

By the way,

-this is...
-My son, Jinlin.

He's very interested in Joseon's culture.

He came with me to broaden
his knowledge and perspective.

I see.

I will have the Ministry of Rites
prepare a suitable itinerary for him.

Thank you.

Faithfully follow the itinerary.

Of course, I will.

My gosh.

-You can put it down here.
-Thank you. Gosh, thank you.

The tavern will be busy, so you'll be
more comfortable here.

My gosh, thank you very much.

Oh my, look at this fancy, neat house.

What a nice place.

Well, have you been living here
by yourself?

Where are your parents?

They passed away.

Oh, no. I'm sorry.

It must've been so tough.

Thank you. We'll stay here
just until we find my brother.

No, you're helping me out.
Houses are just like us people.

They lose their vitality
when they're not cared for.

Over time, they lose

their sparkle.

We will sweep and mop morning and night
so that it can regain its sparkle.

That is not what I meant.

It is the least I could do
to repay your kindness.

Forcing yourself to stay in good spirits
will only wear you out.

Whatever it is, it won't be a bad idea

to just take things slow.

Father.

-Yes.
-Lie down comfortably.

Okay.

Why did my brother go to Hanyang?

I do not know

the details.

You two...
have been working together, right?

I heard he's been
at high-ranking officials' beck and call.

By any chance,
did he even kill people for them?

Why would you think that?

I found this

amongst my belongings.

We were lucky to serve a wealthy master.

Don't lie to me.

No one would pay this much for a job,

unless it's a dirty, risky job
that they're ashamed of.

If he did,

then what will you do?

Will you desert your brother?

No, the opposite.
It'll motivate me to find him

because I must stop him
from doing such things.

If you hear from him, please let him know
that I will be waiting.

Tell him that I won't go anywhere
until I'm reunited with him.

You must be tired from the long journey.
You should get some rest.

I can't just stay here and do nothing,
so I'm off to look for a job.

I'll tag along.

Didn't you say you came to Hanyang
to take care of some business?

I was away for a long time,
so there's probably no food in the house.

Let's go buy some food.

The higher-ups will give me an earful
if they find out

that we're here instead of Sungkyunkwan
and the Office of Royal Decree.

Are you sure you'll be okay?

Well, I do think there is no better place
than the markets

to learn about the culture
of any given country.

I'm actually not here
to broaden my knowledge.

I just wanted some time away
from my father.

He is so strict that
he makes me feel smothered sometimes.

I can relate to that.

My father is also very strict.

Whenever I'm with him,
I feel as though I can't breathe.

I am very glad to have met someone
who understands me.

I am delighted.

Do you like me that much?

Well, yes.

So please help me.

Sure, how can I help? I'd gladly
do anything to be of help to you.

To tell you the truth,

I'd like to get a gift for my beloved.

It's a secret,

so I'd like to go with just you,
without anyone else tagging along.

But...

what about the guards?

Please shake them off.

I will wait for you inside that store.

Got it.

I sure have a knack for this.

Just a moment.

Gosh, my stomach...

-My stomach!
-What's wrong, sir?

My stomach is killing me!

-My stomach!
-I'll find a physician!

-Gosh, I'm in so much pain.
-Hurry!

Wait! Hold on a moment.

Hold on. Just a moment.

Oh, I'm okay now.

It must've been my anxiety.

Can you help me up?

-Sure.
-Hold on. Be careful.

Be gentle with me. Be careful.
Gosh, hang on.

Okay, we're good now.

Gosh, that scared me.

My goodness.

I can't find Envoy Wang's son.

What?

Where did he go in that split second?

-Go look for him. Now!
-Yes, sir!

Why are you standing around?
Gosh, those fools.

Young Master?

I shook the guards off for you.

Young Master.

Young Master?

Young Master?

Who are you?

Well...

Didn't you see a young master
enter the shop just now?

No, no one came in.

What?

If you need to go to a bookstore
or anyplace else,

let me know. I have connections.

I didn't know
you were that well-connected.

I am a righteous and competent man,

so I attract good people
who want to help me.

I'm telling you this

to let you know

that I can help you find your brother.

Please do not concern yourself with it.

Isn't that why you came to Hanyang?

Then why aren't you doing anything
to find him?

If you put up a portrait of him,
you may be able to find him quickly.

It is not that
I don't know how to find him.

I want to do everything in my power
to find him,

but there is a reason I cannot do that
at the moment.

I'm sorry. I wanted to help you
find him quickly.

It's okay.

I know that you were just trying to help.

But please stop trying to help me.

Why?

Why can't I keep trying?

Je-yun.

What brings you to Hanyang?

Well...

-I came to--
-Forget it. It's not important. Excuse us.

Well, I need your help.

One of the envoys' son

is gone.

The Crown Prince is probably
at the banquet with the envoys now.

If they find out about this,
they'll flip out.

From what I hear,
the envoys are determined to test

and vet the Crown Prince
during this visit.

They're in disbelief that there is nothing
wrong with him after what happened.

They're determined to find fault with him,

so he'll get all the blame
if they find out about this.

Help me find the envoy's son, please?

We cannot keep this serious matter
a secret.

Rush to the banquet hall
and let His Highness know.

I will look for the envoy's son.

We'll find him, right?

Tell me more about him.

He's about this tall.
And he has a pretty face, like a girl.

He's wearing a blue robe,

and he was last seen in front of that...
That store...

Stop crying, please.

Anyway, all right. Be on your way.

I'm counting on you.

Wipe your tears before you go. Gosh.

I've got to go.
Do you remember your way back?

-Yes, I do.
-I'm sorry.

Something urgent has come up.

Your Honor.

Please let me come with you.

I'd like to help.

Do you have a theme in mind?

The theme will be...

the past.

PAST

However,

this will not be a competition.

I'd like you to simply write out

the poem by Zhang Jie,
which you recited two years ago.

I believe you are mistaken.

His Highness did not recite

any poetry by Zhang Jie
during your last visit.

It wasn't part of the official schedule,

so there are probably no records of it.

Do you not remember reciting that poem?

I do.

I remember.

However, I'd like us

to write out the poem at the same time.

There are no records of it,

and no one here knows which poem it was,

so if you say

that I wrote out the wrong one

-regardless of--
-Why would I do such a thing?

So why not
just write out the poem with me?

Then shall we begin?

Pick up your brush.

Your Highness.

You dare not interrupt us.

Well, this is regarding an urgent matter.

Young Master Jinlin

has gone missing.

He had no intention
of actually visiting the store.

Judging from how he asked him
to lose the guards,

I think he had been planning his escape
from the get-go.

We can't rule out the possibility
that someone kidnapped him.

If someone wanted to entrap His Highness
in front of the envoys,

now's the perfect time for it.

Was there a commotion around here
about 15 minutes ago?

-Did you see anyone get dragged away?
-Yes, some ruffians took a woman.

The person we're looking for
isn't a woman.

Actually,

it could be a woman.

We must mobilize the entire Royal Guard
and the Capital Bureau's army.

No.

You cannot.

I'd like His Highness to find him.

Are you deliberately trying

to entrap His Highness in a predicament?

How could this be more important
than your son's life?

If that is your wish,
I will look for him myself.

-Your Highness.
-Let this be

a replacement for the test.

You must bring him back
until the evening banquet with the King.

If you fail to find my son,
you may lose your title,

and that man may lose his head.

What if I find him?

Will you give me something I wish to have?

A man clad in Ming-style clothes

bought some hanbok and got changed.

Turns out, he was a woman!

I'm not sure if it was a man disguised
as a woman or the other way around.

I suppose the young master
was a woman after all.

How will we track down the kidnappers?

Gosh.

I think I may have found a way.

Thank you.

-Bring us the scallion pancakes already!
-Hey.

-Who are you?
-Me?

I squashed your lantern, remember?
I'm that high-ranking official.

Oh, right.

What's up?

You want to compensate us
for the lantern after all?

No, I have a question for you.

You kidnapped a woman, didn't you?

How dare you falsely accuse us?

Our boss would never make us
do such a thing.

Is that so?

Then who would do

such a thing? Someone who may know
people inside the palace.

How would I know?

Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you.
Why ask me?

You'd better tell me.

This innocent-looking lady here
is actually

the most skilled undercover assassin
in Ming,

but she's got a real temper.

DAEJO HALL

The envoy's "son"

was actually a girl?

Correct.

I suppose he asked the Crown Prince
to find her to keep it confidential.

Now, things are getting
much more interesting.

Tell them

to keep her until the evening banquet.

As for how I will use her,

I shall ponder on it now.

Your Highness.

Where are you keeping Envoy Wang's son?

Envoy Wang's son?

I am not quite following.

Would you rather die

than confess the truth?

Just leave him be.

How could you be so calm?

This isn't only about the Crown Prince.
Your son could also be held accountable.

If anything bad happens
to Envoy Wang's son,

he will be livid.

The Queen is behind this.

But there is no evidence.

The Minister of Rites secretly informed me

that the Queen was preparing
a surprise gift.

If things go wrong,
the Minister of Rites will be our witness.

And if we could use this
to stir up Envoy Wang,

that would be fun as well.

Go and assist the Crown Prince
to the best of your ability.

I am...

expecting another guest
for an important plan I am working on.

Could this plan be...

Finally,

it is time to make a move.

Untie me at once!

You won't find anyone to pay my ransom.

I am not from Joseon!

But you speak our language fluently.

I'll release you unscathed
if you keep your mouth shut, so be quiet.

I will distract them,

so go in and rescue her.

-Can you speak Ming's language?
-Yes. Why do you ask?

First, shouldn't we check whether she is
actually being held captive in there?

I was just thinking that too.

Sure.

Will you be okay?

There might be more of them inside.

I am the most skilled undercover assassin
in Ming. Why worry?

I know a few self-defense moves,

so just worry about yourself.

You do not seem athletic at all.

You are wrong. You will be very surprised.

Please be safe.

Later.

Young Master.

Are you there?

Are you all right?

Yes, I'm fine!

Who are you?

Me?

I came to rescue the young master
you kidnapped.

Get him!

Watch out! Behind you!

Do you have a death wish?

Will you be all right?

If this harms Your Highness in any way--

Envoy Wang must have a secret
he wishes to hide.

He wants this done discreetly
because he is afraid it may be exposed.

He is provoking me and proposing a deal
at the same time.

What could that secret be?

That secret...

is over there.

So his "son" was actually a woman?

Are you all right?

I think I sprained my ankle.

Let me see.

It's quite swollen.

I'm okay, so escort the young master
back to the palace.

You said the Crown Prince
would get in trouble otherwise.

Go. Please.

I refuse to go back.

I won't return

until I see Yeong-u.

Did you

shake off the guards
and run away just to see your beloved?

Yes.

I understand you're young,
but how could you be so immature?

You put the Crown Prince in danger
and also jeopardized

the relationship
between the two countries.

Such things do not matter to me at all.

I heard Yeong-u is ill.

I had to do this...

because we may never
see each other again otherwise.

Even so, how could you do this
when you came with the envoys?

Let's go.

We can take her to him
instead of wasting time arguing like this.

No, we cannot do that.

You see,

we all have different priorities.

To some, it's power.

To some, it's family.

To some, it could be love.

There's nothing wrong
with cherishing love.

We should escort her back
to the palace at once.

Leave them be.

So, we will return
to the palace without her?

I know

that they will bring her back.

Let's go.

Still, you came all the way here?

I just missed you so much.

Fifteen minutes is up.

It's time to go.

I should get going.

Escort her back before the Crown Prince
gets in deeper trouble.

I can't believe that
the First Vice-Premier is being like this.

How could he just sit back and do nothing?

What can we do?

The dice has been cast, so all we can do
is trust His Highness and wait.

Your Highness.

-Did you not find Envoy Wang's son?
-I can neither say yes

nor no to that question.

Your Highness,
we cannot hold the banquet without him.

But we cannot cancel it, can we?

Your Highness!

You are the Crown Prince of this kingdom.

How could you be unashamed
when you've failed to keep your word?

You promised me that
you'd bring my son back until the banquet.

"Until the banquet"

does not necessarily mean
"before the banquet begins."

If he does not return
until this banquet is over,

I will do as you wish.

Allow me to pour you a drink.

I cannot wait any longer.

The desserts have been served,

so I will consider this banquet over.
And now, I must come to a decision.

Though

I am glad that the Crown Prince
has returned safely,

I cannot help

but doubt his qualifications
as a future king.

My sincere apologies.

There were so many treasures at the market
that I lost track of time.

Please take a seat.

We heard you like apricot jelly,
so we prepared some for dessert.

I did not expect an upright man like you

to let your daughter tag along
on this diplomatic mission.

If the Emperor finds out,
he will be furious.

Seeing my daughter in tears
every single day

utterly broke my heart.

I brought her here, hoping that
this trip would cheer her up.

Who knew she had been crying...
because of love?

I sincerely apologize,
and I'd like to thank you.

Then,

will you now give me

what I want?

Of course.

You are trustworthy, discreet,

and extremely competent.

I believe you are more than qualified
to succeed to the throne.

However,

may I

offer you a piece of advice?

Yes, of course.

Please be wary
of your father-in-law and his followers.

The conversation we had in secret
when you were seeing me off

two years ago actually had nothing to do

with Zhang Jie's poetry.

It was...

about your father-in-law.

That greedy, ruthless man...

What could be his end goal?

When will we see each other again?

Perhaps not until your coronation.

You must regain your memory before that

and punish those who tried

to assassinate you.

I heard it could've been disastrous
had we brought her back any later.

I apologize.

Do you not think you owe me an apology
for something else?

What is she doing

in Hanyang?

How...

did you know?

That is not important.

Why did you not report it to me?

You told me to protect her,

not to report on her.

When did you start
developing feelings for her?

Probably before Your Highness did.

So?

What do you plan to do?

Professionally,
I will obey Your Highness' orders.

But personally,

I wish to follow my heart.

Stop drinking. You've had enough!

How can I stay sober?

I'm so dead.

I picked on Won-deuk
like there was no tomorrow.

Soon, I will be dragged to the palace.

And once I'm there,

I'll be beheaded for picking on him.
You'll see my head rolling on the ground.

I ought to go to Hanyang.

I'll go to the palace

and see Won-deuk.

What?

What is wrong with you people?
You can no longer call him Won-deuk!

Call him His Highness.

His Highness, the Crown Prince.

Oh, right. His Highness.

I must

go see His Highness.

When I see him...
I'll ask for a position at the palace.

You see, I was very good to Won-deuk.

Whenever he ran into trouble
with Hong-sim,

I was such a great counselor to him.

I was very--

Shut your mouth and sit down.

Gosh, what's with you?
Why are you drinking so much?

I can't believe you people!

Are you not even worried about Hong-sim?

Hong-sim...

Goodness.

Hong-sim...

How did you hurt your ankle?
You could've asked me to pick up food.

Why did you go out?

This is nothing serious.

I'm totally fine.

What are you talking about?
It's all red and swollen.

Anyway, I'm sorry
I forgot to pick up groceries.

That's not important.

Don't worry. I bought some groceries.

Oh, don't get up.

-Beef cartilage is good for the ankle.
-My gosh.

It must've been very expensive.

Did he...

How did everything go?

Everything went well,
so you needn't worry.

Who are you talking about?

HEEL

Let me see.

HEEL

-Your Highness.
-What is it?

We must appoint a painter

for the Envoy Office's official manual.

Please stamp your seal on this document.

KIM TAE-HO, ROYAL ACADEMY OF PAINTING

"Kim Tae-ho"?

He was your favorite painter
from the Royal Academy of Painting.

Is this my original seal
that I used to use?

No, it was newly made.

Where are all my old belongings?

We even held a funeral for you.

From what I know,
we've disposed of all your old belongings.

They should be around
if they haven't been burned yet.

Find them and bring them to me.

Yes, Your Highness.

Your Highness.
It is time to visit the Crown Princess.

Please be wary

of your father-in-law and his followers.

The news about the disappearance
of Envoy Wang's son concerned me,

so I am relieved to hear
all has been resolved.

Do not relay such news
to the Crown Princess.

If her heart is troubled,

it won't be good for the child.

No, it's fine.

I should stay informed of all matters
that concern you.

ELEMENTARY LEARNING

Still disinclined to read
Elementary Learning?

Shall I have the maids bring another book?

No, don't.

"My father gave life to my body,
and my mother raised me.

-My mother carried me"--
-I washed it.

Give it back to her.

What is the matter?

It is nothing.

Dandelion spores?

I heard embroidery is good
for prenatal care.

I've been feeling down lately.
I think it's because of the pregnancy.

I feel suffocated here in the palace.

May I

visit my parents' house?

Sure, you may.

Must you be so rude, every single time?
Always at this late hour.

And you know that
I am not particularly fond of you.

If it is for a great cause,

one must know to join forces
with one's enemy.

Do you not think

this is rather too small for a bribe?

Why don't you open it?

Why would you give me this useless rock?

It is not for you.

Please make sure Chief Eunuch No gets it.

Are you trying to trick me or what?

How dare you ask me
to give this worthless rock

to Chief Eunuch No?

That rock

will bring great victory.

"Victory"?

I ask for...

a declaration of war.

I've been waiting for you.

There is something I must ask you.

Why did you

give orders to shoot me down?

Is that the only thing...

you wish to ask me?

No.

What is that?

Won-deuk's jacket.

Why on earth is this here?

The person you were talking about earlier.
Was it the Crown Prince?

What is going on?

You went to see him?

Well...

That's not what happened.

The governor seemed to be in distress,
so all I did was help him.

Hong-sim, be honest with me.

Is your brother

the only reason you came here?

What?

Do you think I came here

for the Crown Prince, not for my brother?

Then what? Am I wrong?

Fine.

That's why I came here.

I came to Hanyang

thinking I'd be able to see him,
even from afar. Happy now?

Hong-sim! Let your hair down at once.

Undo that bun and wear a single plait.

That marriage was fake,
and Won-deuk isn't your husband.

The governor even cleaned
the family register for us.

Let's be honest. You two never
even consummated. Nothing happened!

So undo that bun at once

-and go back to being single.
-No.

Why not?

Why are you saying no?

What is the problem?

I like him.

I miss him so much.

I can't believe
we had to part ways like that.

Hong-sim.

Don't do this to yourself.

This will only break your heart.

The Crown Prince will live a happy life
at the palace.

You must forget him and move on.

I know. I know that too,

but I just can't help it. What do I do?

Why is everyone telling me
to just forget him?

You think it's that easy?

Had it been that easy,

I would've forgotten all about
my late parents and my brother

a long time ago.

So?

What are you going to do, then?

I am trying to forget him.

I really am, so please...

Don't tell me to forget him so soon.

What brings you here?

Isn't that from the palace?

What is it?

It contains ominous objects,
so I brought it outside to burn it.

I must see what is inside.

You are being extremely rude!

He is carrying out my order.

Your Highness.

Open it.

Why did you lie to me?

I had no choice, Your Highness.

I wanted to live.

This will prevent the wound
from opening up.

I finished Elementary Learning
in just ten days.

I'm proud of you.

Look at you, idiot. You came
all the way here to brag about it?

You actually look like an idiot sometimes.

Those flowers.

They're my favorite.
That's why you planted this tree here.

We pinkie-swore like this. You promised me
that you'd make me happy

and that you'd do anything for me
if I married you.

What do you like better?
Snow or falling petals?

I like...

you.

I'm going to

marry you.

Your Highness.

What would you like me to do?

We will deal with him another time.

Return to the palace with the chest.

I must

stop by somewhere.

I-seo.

So it is you,

Yoon I-seo.

Your Highness, how do you

know that name?

It's me.

The idiot.

WE THANK JIN JI-HEE
FOR HER GUEST APPEARANCE

I was first.
You came into the picture after me.

Should I ask him to quit
being the Crown Prince and elope with me?

The diary

must not end up
in the Crown Prince's hands.

I'm just so sad
that you two had to part ways.

We

never did.

If you get in the way,

I will not spare you.

-Fire!
-There's a fire!

I am afraid of the secret
I will have to face,

as well as of

what I will end up doing.
