(Episode 6)

Right. Over here.

In the tactics section of "Wubei Zhi",

if there are fewer allies than enemies,

run away to a rough area.

And if you are unable to protect it, retreat and...

She is a strange woman.

Gosh, Your Majesty.

She behaves strangely.

Until when should I dance to royal ancestral rite music?

I...

served in the Special Forces.

- She speaks arrogantly. - Come at me.

You must think you're a king or something.

I am the king.

Thank you.

Have you lost your mind?

Never mind. I don't care anymore.

Get lost.

She also acts so wildly.

At times she makes decisions that seem like Buddha.

So please do not hurt those who did nothing wrong.

And at other times, she gets as mad as a demon.

If I don't get angry in this situation, am I a human?

I'd be Buddha!

In some ways, she is very human,

and trying to understand this mysterious woman...

It's too late. Your understanding means nothing now.

Is it really too late?

Was my explanation difficult?

- What did you say? - You were not paying attention.

What were you thinking about...

that you were not paying attention to your favorite book on tactics?

You must have been thinking about Lady Hwa Jin.

No, I was not.

There is no need to lie.

The look in your eyes shows that you were thinking of a woman...

I was thinking about the Queen.

Pardon?

So please refrain from saying such uncomfortable things.

The Queen is a woman,

but you know that I do not see her as one.

It makes sense. Since she is so unpredictable,

you are inevitably bothered by her.

The Queen is the most eccentric and strange person...

I have met in my entire life.

As if she has come from a different world.

An expression that best describes the Queen is...

Let me see.

It is a word that describes a being from outside of this world.

Alien.

- "Alien"? - Yes.

It fits her very well.

Alien.

Has it finally stopped raining?

It was raining so hard.

I hope that nobody suffered any damages.

I agree.

I am worried.

Until when are you going to speak in a weird way like that?

Until today. Just until today.

Everything will be back to its place tomorrow! Yes!

No way.

Your Majesty!

Open the gates! It is the King's order!

- Open the gates! - Open the gates!

(I came here for nothing. Jang Bong Hwan)

Are you okay?

Darn it.

What are you doing?

Not too long ago, you tried to kill me.

I should ask you the same thing!

I cannot believe you tried to end your life again.

Have you lost your mind?

Why do you care if I die or not?

Isn't it what you wanted?

So don't interrupt and get lost.

It is not too late for me to understand you.

Let us do as you said.

No touching.

That's right. No touching.

- Goodness. - Darn it.

What are you doing? Let me go!

Darn it!

You said you wanted no touching, so why are you giving up on life?

You want me to kill you, don't you?

How dare you touch me without permission?

It makes sense that you are angry.

I have committed a great sin and a debt I cannot repay.

I know it all sounds like excuses, but there was a misunderstanding.

Misunderstanding or not, I don't care about your situation.

Please at least listen to my excuses.

I don't want to listen to your excuses.

- Move. - No.

Since I agreed to no touching,

I will not leave you alone.

Do you even know what no touching means?

I do.

I remember everything that you said to me.

No touching.

Living a happy and fun life.

You must live, My Queen.

You've missed out the most important word.

"Separately".

You live as you want, and I live as I want.

The emphasis isn't on the word "live".

It is on "separately".

I will do everything that I can to abide by your no-touching rule.

I will look for a way for both you and I to live.

Forget it. Forget about the no-touching rule!

Why not?

The no-touching rule I'm talking about is different from yours.

One small thing has made them totally opposites.

They are not different.

I will prove it to you.

So let us follow the no-touching rule.

I won't follow the no-touching rule!

Let us follow the no-touching rule!

Darn it.

(Episode 6, Between Understanding and Misunderstanding)

- Your Highness! - Your Highness!

Your Majesty. What is going on?

Call for the Head Eunuch quickly.

I am okay, so take care of the Queen.

- Yes, Your Majesty. - Yes, Your Majesty.

Your Highness.

Hurry.

(I came here for nothing. Jang Bong Hwan)

I missed you.

I also missed you.

Are you inside?

Yes, Father.

I see that you are already dressed.

Did you sleep well?

Yes.

I woke up early as today is the day you enter the Palace.

I will do my best so that I do not taint...

your name and our family.

I'm glad it is not raining anymore. It will be easier to get there.

Finish getting ready.

I will.

I was on the brink of suffocating to death.

Honestly, I could've been in danger if Cheoljong didn't save me.

Why won't this woman come back?

What happened to you and the King?

Why did you go to the lake at this hour?

Are you still taking your time?

I finished wiping everything down.

When did you even leave? I was keeping my eye on you.

Did you jump into the lake again?

It's not what you think.

Your Highness. I have brought the outfit you can change into.

Then how did you get wet?

It's nothing. I was excited to see the lake filled with water,

so I went swimming.

Pardon?

The two of you went swimming?

You must not do that.

What if you end up catching a cold?

Perhaps the lake isn't the way to go back.

This doesn't make sense.

Your Majesty.

You are here.

I looked everywhere for you.

Why were you in such a hurry...

Why are you so wet?

- It is nothing. - But...

My life is filled with sin,

so I will live to help you, Lady Hwa Jin.

I am sorry. I did not see you.

Did you really not see me?

If a person without any power knows too much,

they will die in the end.

That is the rule of the palace.

I must live.

Lady Hwa Jin told me to live.

The Queen fell into the lake again at dawn today.

But this time, the King also...

It seems like nobody knows why they both fell in.

Will this be...

enough to prove my use to you?

Relay that message to the Queen Dowager.

Should I describe the Queen's behaviors as they are?

As you relay that message to her,

tell me everything you see and hear from her...

no matter how small it is.

It is not up to you to choose which information is useful.

I will do as you say.

From now on, you will be report to the court lady...

that handles the Queen's bedchamber.

Bedchamber, my lord?

That position comes with a high salary.

Thank you, my lord.

The Queen Dowager will think you will be more useful to her.

And keep a close eye on the Queen's whereabouts as well.

Yes. Leave it to me, my lord.

Should I draw a bloomed flower...

or a budding flower?

What do you think, O Wol?

His Majesty is the only one...

I have left now.

Your Highness, the Queen Dowager is here.

Hello, Your Highness.

You were drawing orchids.

Is it finished?

Not yet.

I have not decided whether to add a flower or a bud.

Let me see.

In my opinion, a budding flower will do.

It will make them curious and wonder...

what kind of flower it will be.

Gosh, how beautiful.

I hope the buds would not face any misfortunes...

of withering away without being able to bloom.

Oh, right.

I came here because I have a small gift for you.

Thank you.

I did not know what you liked,

so it took me some time as I gave it a lot of thought.

I heard that you are an excellent archer.

I am planning to learn archery myself.

I prepared some for you as I got them for myself.

These are beautiful and strong arrows.

Thank you.

That is not the real gift, though.

The real gift will be delivered...

to His Majesty during the meeting in court today.

Where if not the lake?

The only thing in common is water.

There's one more.

Both of us were on the verge of death.

Oh, my. What if I try it and really end up dying?

Dying hurts so much.

I'm sure there is a safe and peaceful way to go back.

I should understand this woman first.

I am Kim So Yong.

I ended myself.

"Desert your false self"?

"Desert your false self"?

Why did I try to kill myself? Because I don't want to live.

Of course, that's why she won't come back.

This woman... Did she run away from home?

I finally understand why you are doing this.

You obsess over the lake...

and keep mumbling to yourself.

Right now, you are...

trying to get your memories back, right?

Yes. That's right.

Okay.

That brings me to this question. When I fell into the lake,

you said I didn't wake up although I was pulled out right away.

Yes.

Darn it. I knew it. She ran away.

This isn't fair.

I want to go back.

This is kidnapping!

The grilled gizzard shad can bring back runaway wives.

But memorial services for spirits who left their bodies?

A ritual?

Yes. I should hold a huge ritual.

I will plaster this place with expensive talismans.

Are you outside, Court Lady Choi?

Is there anyone who specializes in rituals or talismans?

Pardon?

You should not take an interest in shamanism,

but you will end up doing it anyway, right?

There is one person that comes to my mind now.

But what?

Why did she come all the way here? What does she want to know?

To what do I owe this pleasure?

I heard you were the expert.

I am? In what?

I need some spiritual guidance.

Things like rituals or talismans.

Did she figure out that I got a new talisman...

to curse her?

My gosh. How vulgar.

Why do you need such items?

It's not a big deal.

I need to bring in a spirit that has left the body.

I'm sure this happens often. You know?

She is cleverly trying to bond with me.

I am sure she wants to expose me for having talismans.

What a sly fox.

I do not believe in such things.

Like ghosts or spirits.

Then, what is the purpose of this place?

You got the wrong idea.

This is not a shamanistic place.

This is where I cleanse my heart.

I see.

What is this?

Seriously?

But whose spirit are you trying to summon?

Should I say we are very intimate or tight?

It's a woman, so don't get the wrong idea.

I see.

It must be your mother whom you have never seen.

My gosh. My heart breaks for you.

You must be lonely in the palace.

But you must miss your late mother.

Is that why...

you were trying to end your life?

Is that what you think?

You can tell me everything.

I did not give birth to the King...

but based on the genealogy, I am his mother.

Starting today, I will cherish you as my daughter and take good care...

I already have two mothers.

But the truth is, I wasn't trying to kill myself.

Then, why did you say that you were trying to end your life?

Exactly.

Why on earth did I do that?

So you want me to guess?

It means she has an ulterior motive.

So she is threatening me and saying that I should be on my toes.

Darn it. That wasn't helpful at all.

The royal conference has not been held yet.

But she is making a move already to threaten me?

Court Lady Han, they must also have a little bird...

that delivers rumors to them.

Pardon? But who would do that?

She barged in confidently and dropped clues on purpose,

so it must be someone we cannot figure out easily.

Contact the fortune-teller, Court Lady Han.

I must get a reading.

She was tormented by something, so she tried to take her own life.

But she couldn't even die.

So her soul was like, "Whatever. I'm out."

And she's not returning.

What was she tormented by?

The Grand Queen Dowager said she didn't want to become Queen.

Why not?

Because Cheoljong didn't love her...

and was head over heels for another woman?

Gosh, no way.

Did she try to take her own life because of that jerk?

Her Highness is talking to herself more than usual.

Many are listening.

That is the least of my concerns.

I nag her about it, but I should really let it go.

She will kill someone soon at this rate.

But then again, I know this now that I've experienced it.

Being a queen is like sitting in a barless prison.

From a noble family and chosen to become Queen,

which means she never really dated.

She probably had never even seen a boy until she met Cheoljong.

And given the fact that he is King and all that,

I understand why she fell hard for him.

Hold on a second. She must be having a lot of fun right now.

After leading an ascetic lifestyle all her life,

she experienced a new world.

What if this woman is...

She'd better not be doing funny things with my body!

What the...

Stop!

Come back at once. I'm going to teach you a lesson!

You won't come back?

What is so interesting that you are all staring at it?

Then I'm going to...

stab your body. Until it bleeds!

It'll hurt, big-time.

You don't think I can do it? I'm doing it, okay? Here we go!

Gosh, that hurts.

This time, I'm actually going to do it until I see blood.

- Your Highness! - Your Highness!

That really hurt!

- It hurt so much. - Let me help you up.

It hurt...

- My gosh. - I have reached my limits.

Coming back, not coming back.

Coming back.

Not coming back.

More?

Your Highness, please do not be concerned.

It will return when the time is right.

But by then, I would already be...

Calling the spirit.

Are you here?

Calling the spirit.

Are you here?

Since we're sharing each other's bodies,

let's have an open, candid conversation.

You are talking to yourself again, Your Highness?

Consider this a self-conducted exorcism...

or a conversation with the self.

What will you do if strange rumors spread?

Word travels exceptionally fast in the palace.

What is that? It looks nice.

His Majesty bestowed this upon Your Highness as a gift.

I went and got it for you.

("Changes of Zhou")

There is something inside.

(No touching.)

My gosh! How pretty.

Gosh, look at him going on about this.

When I wanted to do it, he turned me down. So why now?

Did you catch a cold?

I knew this would happen.

You got soaked in the rain and even played in the water.

Gosh, what do I do with you?

Yeon.

This isn't a cold.

Then what is it?

This is...

a disease called despair.

I thought everything would be resolved once the lake filled up.

You see, hope is such a cruel thing.

To regain memory, you even wanted to do a shamanic ritual.

I hope you can stop trying so hard.

If you had a lot of good memories,

you would not have tried to take your own life.

For the sake of your happiness,

maybe it is better that it never returns...

No! It must return.

I can't live like this.

I'll tell the royal kitchen to make foods that can help treat your cold.

Your Highness should eat that and get some rest.

No, I will make this woman surrender...

and come back of her own accord, at all costs.

Here, blow your nose.

Hey, don't treat me like a kid. I'm not an idiot.

One more time.

- Eunuch Cha. - Yes, sir.

Your Majesty, you have a cold. Please return to your chamber.

No, this is not a cold.

This is...

I suppose it is a cold. You were right.

Still no word from Daejojeon Hall?

- No, Your Majesty. - Did she receive the book?

Yes, Your Majesty.

Of course, it would not be easy to open a closed heart.

I have a favor to ask of you.

I need you to get me something precious.

By "something precious", do you mean...

What are you thinking?

We hereby appoint Kim Byeong In...

as the head of the Department of Justice.

I trust that you will excel in this position.

I am much obliged, Your Majesty.

I have heard so much about you. The youngest to pass...

the civil service exam and skilled in martial arts.

Despite all your knowledge and talent in martial arts,

you had been refusing to accept a post in the government,

which left everyone curious.

What prompted you to change your mind this time?

"One must save one's country in times of crisis."

At this time of crisis, I wish to contribute...

to restoring order in this nation.

"Crisis"?

My goodness, the ministers must have been keeping it from me...

for they did not want to cause me concern.

Who is it this time? Qing or the Japanese?

An internal crisis...

is more dangerous than an external one.

There is an internal crisis that never existed before?

That must mean...

Oh, I have a cold.

Gosh, a sage king ought to know how to look after his health.

Open wide.

You must return to your chamber...

and get some rest after you finish this.

No, I'll stay out here so my cold will get worse.

I'm going to abuse this body.

It's not my body anyway.

I'll never let it stay warm and full.

I want more.

Your Highness,

abusing your body would not help you regain your memory.

It will only cause you pain.

You keep saying that it is not your body,

but it is yours even though your memories are gone.

Who will suffer? You, of course.

Even without your memories,

I am sure you will have a happy life.

Look at the sky. The weather is great today. How nice is it?

Right. It's free of fine dust.

The breeze carries the smell of fresh compost.

Korean food for all three meals.

Yes, this is enough to make me happy.

Of course. I'm happy with it.

Yes, Your Highness.

Your Highness, are you crying?

No. I'm not crying. I am so happy.

Like you said,

I'll try to like this place and live a happy life here.

Are you that sad because your memories are not returning?

This is an appeal from tens of people from the court...

including myself as we are greatly worried about...

the Queen's state.

What on earth...

Are you discussing to depose the Queen?

- What? - What?

The Queen habitually tries to end her life,

so we would like to strengthen the Internal Court.

I ask you to consider deposing the Queen.

The Queen has made a false statement in order to keep...

Royal Noble Consort Eui safe.

After falling into the lake, her mind has been ill.

She confuses herself with someone else.

And whenever she looks at the water, she jumps and tries to kill herself.

Everyone is gossiping about that!

If you believe gossips have any truth to them,

the gossip that Royal Noble Consort Eui...

had pushed the Queen also must be true.

What?

- How dare you? - Hey.

Be quiet!

I will dismiss this appeal as it was not handled properly.

You must file this properly to Seungjeongwon.

However, I can guarantee you this as I am her husband,

the closest person to observe her.

Her mind is not ill.

- However... - Things are getting heated.

I'd like to ask to end the royal conference here for today.

Let us.

Your Highness.

What brings you here, my cousin?

I heard that you were here.

Did you hear the news?

- What? - His Majesty is here.

My Queen.

You are already here.

You are the one who is late, Your Majesty.

I thought perhaps, I was being sensitive,

but it is no secret that my head of the Department of Justice...

is unhappy with me.

Head of the Department of Justice?

You dismissed and humiliated the Queen...

who had saved your lover in front of everyone.

I can picture how you have been treating the Queen all this time.

Perhaps, that must be why she tried to end her life.

Well, don't look at me.

In the end, the Queen is in a predicament because...

she saved Royal Noble Consort Eui.

- What will you do then? - In a predicament?

I will not let her be in a predicament.

How? What can you do?

Are you crossing the line...

as the Queen's cousin...

or as the adopted son of Lord Kim Jwa Geun?

You have no power to protect her.

I am objectively telling you what I am seeing.

I have no power?

I agree.

However, I do not have to defeat power with power.

There is a way to defeat it in a peaceful and safe way.

If it requires me to be more peaceful, I will be.

If it means to protect the Queen,

I will stay weak as long as anyone wants.

There is no need for that.

I will protect the Queen.

It is faster to defeat power with more power.

Hey.

What's going on here?

It sounds like it's my problem.

Why are you two fighting about it?

What's going on with me? What is it this time?

I received an appeal to depose you, My Queen.

Gosh. Right after I decided to try to like this place?

They were eager to kill me before.

Now, they want to kick me out.

Who brought up to depose you before today?

The Grand Queen Dowager was angry at me.

I will talk to her.

I do have a solution in mind.

Oh, no. You caught a cold too, My Queen.

You too?

Although this is urgent,

you must go back inside and rest.

If that is everything you wanted to say, leave us be.

We must discuss something as a husband and a wife.

There is something I must tell you, so I will wait.

- I will come back again. - Okay.

I was going to wait until you had an answer for me.

But I am running out of time.

Starting now, I will follow the no-touching rule.

Why are you bringing that up now?

If you do not wish to follow it, I will follow it alone.

No touching.

You misunderstood that.

- Give me your hand. - Why?

What are you doing?

My life...

was always in the hands of your clan.

I must have been blinded by that.

I failed to see that you are also an innocent woman who is trying...

to make the best of what you have.

I am sorry that it took me so long.

Please give me one more chance.

A chance to understand you...

as an individual without any prejudices.

You didn't have to do that.

I know you are not fond of big gestures.

But I should apologize to you properly at least once.

Suit yourself.

Fine. Let's do it. No touching.

I'm in no place to turn down anyone.

Then, today is our first day.

What?

The first day of our no-touching rule.

- Don't say something like that. - Why not?

Just don't. Never say that again.

What is wrong with what I said?

Today is our first day.

My gosh. Just don't say that!

I mean, saying today is our first day...

Stop it!

I bet you know what that means, right?

Today is our first day...

Stop it. That's so disgusting!

- But it is our first day. - Stop it.

- Our... - Stop it.

Then, now that we have settled on that,

I will do my best to protect you.

Right. I have no time to waste either.

Bye.

Wait. Please do not run. Do not...

You might get hurt.

Go ahead.

If the Queen is unhappy, you will be unhappy too.

- Is that a threat? - Just my concern.

You are only her cousin, but you are way too overprotective.

No, you are way too indifferent, Your Majesty.

I know I do not hold much power,

but there are proprieties to follow.

If you cross the line again,

I will raise a question regarding your behaviors.

Please go ahead.

I will make you write...

a very lengthy apology letter.

A very long one.

You might have to stay up all night.

And your fingers will hurt.

Do they truly believe she can be deposed?

Because of that mere appeal?

They are trying to gather power through the appeal.

They will gather people who dislike our clan...

and increase the number of appeals. It is very obvious.

How dare they make their move so recklessly?

We were bound to go through this at least once.

Your Highness,

the Queen is here.

Show Her Highness in.

I apologize deeply for worrying you.

I deserved to be deposed.

However, even if I get deposed,

the Grand Queen Dowager must depose me.

It is not right for a member of the Pungyang Jo clan to do so.

No matter how foolish you may be, nobody can bear to see...

someone boss around one of their subordinates.

This is a matter of pride.

If I get deposed by someone from the Pungyang Jo clan,

it will not be my loss,

it will be the loss of the Andong Kim clan.

If you are so aware of that,

how could you do something to be accountable for?

What they rely on are the rumors.

I will take care of it.

How will you do that?

You must never let a good crisis go to waste.

If you give me a bit of time, I will take this opportunity...

to change my reputation.

Today, the King took your side...

when he received the appeal.

Cheoljong, that jerk, did?

The fact that the Queen took action...

did not go to waste.

I must give the Queen Dowager Jo a proper lesson.

I must show her who the owner of this palace is.

Are these all the palanquin bearers?

The thing is...

Select some more. Make sure they're funny.

Yes, Your Highness. Funny.

Pardon?

Make sure they are tall and have nice bodies.

Obviously, they must be young too.

Are you really choosing palanquin bearers?

I'm not simply choosing riders to carry the food palanquins.

You'll be surprised when you find out.

What I'm choosing is...

- Right. Did you hear the rumors? - What rumors?

The Queen did not try to commit suicide.

She was trying to save the King and the Royal Noble Consort Eui.

She was trying to save the King and the Royal Noble Consort Eui,

so she lied and said she was trying to commit suicide.

Gosh, it's hot.

- Is it family... - Or husband.

- That is... - The question.

As a result, she lost the confidence of the Grand Queen Dowager...

But the Queen put a silver knife to her throat and said...

"I will escape from this unlucky fate..."

"where I cannot choose either side."

That is what she said.

She was the witch of the royal villa.

According to the rumors,

she experienced a world of paradise.

Because she fell into the lake?

After she met the Great Jade Emperor,

she transformed into a fairy.

This is good.

I'm not simply choosing riders to carry the food palanquins.

I'm choosing storytellers.

They're human tabloids who will spread rumors like a disease.

Pardon?

When rumors begin spreading, it ends up becoming infectious.

It spreads so fast that not even the person who started them can stop it.

It also evolves in unexpected ways.

But if she did not try to commit suicide,

that means that the person who pushed the Queen into the lake...

Does that mean that the Queen risked her life...

to save the concubine who tried to kill her?

- Oh, my goodness. - Oh, my goodness.

I suddenly have chills.

You must really get some rest now.

This will not do. I will carry you if I must.

Gosh. All right.

Now that Court Lady Choi doesn't nag me, you do.

Is there a law of conservation of nagging?

I haven't seen Court Lady Choi for a while now.

It's so cold.

Can you hug me a bit tighter? It's cold.

Your Highness!

How could you hurt yourself?

Do you want to see me lose my mind?

How could you go swimming with the King?

Do you intend to put the nation in danger?

A talisman? A ritual?

You must not participate in such superstitions.

You must not speak like that either!

Everything from 1 to 10,

you must not do any of it!

I do not feel refreshed even after doing this.

If I nag her, Her Highness will be troubled.

If I do not nag her, I am troubled.

What can I do about this?

Your Highness!

- Did you hear the rumors? - Pardon?

Everyone in the Palace is talking about it.

They said that the Queen risked her life...

to save you, who tried to kill her.

Who would say such things?

Did the Queen say that?

She changed the rumors that she was the witch of the royal villa...

to say that she is like Buddha, a fairy, and a virtuous woman.

She managed to get everyone to change their tune.

From now on, people will curse you and say you are a wicked woman.

This was her plan from the start.

She came to see me at Seoneonjeon Hall, and she threatened me.

This was why.

I will visit with the King and tell him...

so that he does not get fooled by the Queen's lies anymore.

I am not sure about that.

Will he believe in what you say?

The King will believe in what I tell him.

The King rejected the appeal for the Queen's dethronement.

The Royal Noble Consort Eui is here.

Hwa Jin.

I was about to visit you as I had something to discuss with you.

What did you want to speak with me about?

During today's council before the throne,

I received an appeal for the Queen's dethronement.

Is that so?

The Queen was put in danger in order to save us,

and I thought it would not be right to stay quiet.

So I would like to ask the Royal Secretariat to withdraw it.

Is that okay with you?

Do you want me to ask my father?

He is highly respected, and many people follow him.

Is this a hard request?

No, it is not.

I will write a message to my father myself.

Thank you.

Your Majesty.

There is something I have always wanted when I came here.

Just like when we first met, I hope you can forget...

all the things you fear when you are with me.

I want to be that kind of person to you.

You are already a big comfort to me.

I apologize,

but we have not spent the night together yet.

I have made you lonely.

I know that you have been busy.

I was not thinking straight.

I will visit your chamber tonight.

However, you and the Queen are supposed...

to spend the night together tomorrow.

Do not worry about that.

Then I shall meet her to comfort her.

And I will write a letter right after that.

Good idea.

Royal Noble Consort Eui is here to see the Queen.

I apologize. Her Highness has a cold,

so she took some herbal tonic...

and just fell asleep.

Too bad.

I will come back another time.

You're here.

You were fast asleep like a puppy napping in spring...

I heard you are not feeling well.

I'm not feeling the greatest,

but I have no regrets since it was for the sake of justice.

- "Justice"? - Let's not stand around here.

Come on in.

Give us some privacy so...

I mean, so we can relax and catch up.

Sit down. Make yourself at home.

Why are you sitting so far away?

This makes me feel distant from you.

Come closer.

No, I am okay here.

Then I shall come closer.

I showed up like a prince and saved her life,

so those cold eyes should be filled with love now...

What? How come...

The look in your eyes has changed,

but why colder than before?

I will withdraw the appeal.

So I am no longer indebted to you.

Thank you.

I bet you are thinking that everything is going your way.

No, I'm not.

Nothing's going my way.

You lost His Majesty because of those lies,

so you will lie to get him back?

What are you talking about?

I'm not the most honest person, but I never lie.

I knew you would play dumb.

No, I'm not playing dumb.

And I've told you numerous times.

I really have no interest in the King whatsoever.

All right, then.

I will trust you on that.

Why don't we do something tonight to build a stronger friendship?

How about a pajama party...

I mean, an undergarment party.

I am spending the night with His Majesty.

Why?

And on top of that,

did you really have to tell me this in person?

This bluntly? In this hurtful manner?

You seem quite upset for someone who has no interest whatsoever.

I said I had no interest in the King.

I never said I wasn't interested in you.

Prove to me that your kindness toward me is sincere.

If your words and actions fail to match once again,

I, too, will fight with all my might.

Since you're so determined, I should give up.

Okay, fine.

I'll give up and send my blessings to the two of you.

It's your loss.

Too bad you failed to recognize my charm.

I shall leave now.

She's a difficult one.

That cruel woman.

15, 20...

How can I help you?

I feel awfully frustrated and distressed.

I am here to heal my frustrated heart.

You came to the wrong place.

We sell pretty much everything here,

but we don't sell medicine.

I have to close up now.

Please. This way.

- Well... - This way, please.

That precious thing.

What?

You know, that precious object from Qing.

I asked the two of you to meet with me to go over...

what was discussed at the royal conference.

How dare they discuss the deposal of the Queen?

They are attacking the entire Andong Kim clan!

The royal court with a queen...

who can jump into the lake anytime.

How precarious!

How dare you slander the Queen?

You'd better not run your mouth like that.

Run my mouth?

I did not come here to put up with such an insult.

What are you doing?

Are you trying to provoke me?

I am simply asking you to stay to hear the rest.

You little...

Like I mentioned earlier, no one in this room is losing.

So would you please stay and hear me out?

Have a seat.

I am not sure if you would remember this.

The letter Queen Dowager sent to Royal Noble Consort Eui.

The location, date, and time written in this letter...

coincide with when and where the Queen's accident took place.

That letter is fake.

Can you prove that it is fake?

This letter and the appeal for the Queen's dethronement.

I would like us to exchange the two.

This deal will ensure that the two families...

will never have to be distressed about the same issue again.

That is my offer.

What do you say?

Did Your Highness ask for me?

I wrote the letter His Majesty had asked me to write.

Could you deliver this to my father?

I will...

persuade His Majesty.

His Majesty is genuinely trying to return the favor.

Although the Queen is probably feeling differently about it.

However, what matters to me is how His Majesty feels.

So it is okay.

Your Highness, we are ready for your bath.

So far, it is okay.

Queen Dowager.

Has everything been well with you?

No, I have not been well. That is why I asked to see you.

I feel awfully anxious and worried again.

Please calm down.

I will help you find the answer you are looking for.

His Majesty is getting ready to visit Her Highness's chamber.

I must speak to His Majesty.

Give us some privacy.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Deposing the Queen will grant us the chance we needed.

Your Majesty, why are you trying to stop it?

Even if we go that route,

she will simply be replaced with someone else.

The Queen has been making decisions that are in favor of us.

Out of everyone who can occupy that position,

she is the best option for us.

Is she making you waver?

Please answer my question. Is she making you waver?

Yes.

She is.

She risked her life to save her husband, who had tried to kill her,

as well as the woman her husband is in love with.

Not because she is boundlessly merciful,

and not because she has forgiven me.

She did it because she could not turn away from the truth.

She never even expected me to apologize or thank her.

She quietly did what she thought was right for justice's sake,

and this crisis has befallen her now.

So how could I not waver?

Will you betray Royal Noble Consort Eui...

as well as us?

I do not have any romantic feelings for the Queen.

She is simply not our enemy.

Hence, I am not betraying anyone.

You are growing fond of her, which is dangerous.

If you are fond of her,

it will be used against us.

I will make sure that never happens.

Fine.

Then please promise me this one thing.

If the Queen's stance and attitude change,

or if she turns out to be one of our enemies,

will you...

not hesitate...

to behead her?

Can you not answer this question?

If the Queen...

indeed turns out to be one of our enemies,

I will behead her with my own two hands.

My gosh, looks like I'm already getting better at this.

Did you seriously do that by hand?

When it comes to embroidery, every woman in Joseon...

is as skilled as I am...

(Descendants of the Bright Land)

Well, I guess not.

Not everyone has to be skilled in embroidery.

You're good at everything on top of being so strong.

I was considered a weakling among the servants.

Everyone tells me that I look like a violet.

My gosh, everyone in Joseon is such a skilled craftsman.

Let's see now.

- Pull it. - Okay.

(Descendants of the Bright Land Inauguration Ceremony)

We'll put this up in front of the Royal Stables.

We'll begin operating the business right away.

Shall we charge for delivery?

I need some cash to go to Oktajeong.

Your Highness.

I brought you a wind orchid, which is very rare.

Wind orchid?

Did word get out about my inauguration ceremony already?

Who sent me this?

(Congratulations, No Touching)

It is from His Majesty.

My gosh, no!

That jerk.

I'm trying to focus on work to forget about everything.

Is he showing off or what?

I'm a thousand times better.

I mean, look at this. It's such a brilliant idea.

I'm creating jobs, which the King can't even do.

During the Joseon period where the notion of convenience doesn't exist.

I've invented this amazing service.

Does she feel intimidated because I'm so amazing?

Well, that's understandable.

Whatever.

Did hearing all this obnoxious nonsense...

ruin my palate? Why can I not get the taste right?

Hold on.

Since the concept of convenience doesn't even exist in Joseon,

whatever I do will be considered Joseon's first...

No, the world's first!

I feel so motivated all of a sudden.

So here, I can be Thomas Edison and Steve Jobs?

No. Is there anyone who achieved even greater things?

A hero who saved mankind.

Inside the Queen's body,

I see something that should not be there.

A wicked soul.

She is possessed by a wicked soul!

You must do something about this.

If not, the world...

The world will be thrown upside down!

Yes, Willis Carrier.

The man who invented the first air conditioner.

Your Highness!

Wake up, Your Highness! Please...

Your Highness!

Hey, move!

She is... She is not breathing.

I do not feel any pulse.

(Mr. Queen)

The Queen is unconscious.

You mean, she has stopped breathing?

If her qi energy returns, she will live. But if not...

The hospital? Wait, am I back?

I will show you...

what kind of man the King truly is.

The eyes of a man who is hiding his true colors.

Clear. Shock!

- My Queen. - The investigation will begin now.

Stop.

She is my woman.
