What is wrong with you?

I had no idea you were taking medicine with white Atractylodes and its root.

I did not know that you die if you eat a peach with it.

If I knew...

If I knew...

I would never have given you a peach!

Mother, I gave it to him!

I gave Hyungnim the peach-

What are you talking about?

Do you really want to die?

Your Highness! His Majesty is here.

Your Majesty.

Greetings.

What is going on? What happened?

Why were you covering the Grand Prince's mouth?

It is nothing, Father.

The Grand Prince was speaking nonsensically because he was not able to sleep.

It appears the Grand Prince is hallucinating.

What do you mean, hallucinations?

What did you see?

He kept saying that he saw a burning oyat tree.

He is burning up with a fever.

That is why he sees hallucinations.

It is because he has grown weak.

The oyat tree being set on fire was not due to the curse of the ghost of Song.

It will not do for a man to be so weak of heart.

I heard he has been talking nonsense and throwing up what he ate.

What kind of nonsense is he saying?

[Episode 16]

Your Highness. May I ask who will be the woman who will live in this house?

This house will be used as a school to teach children.

Furnish that upper deck with desks.

- Giyeok - Giyeok!

- Kieuk! - Kieuk!

- Digeut! - Digeut!

By chance,

is the woman who will live here Eunuch Go?

Does she not have a fiance?

Did she say she would not return to the Sergeant?

She says that she will not return to him

and live by herself.

Gosh, she is quite an incredible girl-

woman.

Marriage is a covenant between two families.

Not return to him when the marriage acceptance letters have been exchanged already...

What did she say was her reason?

I am in love with someone else.

I have someone I secretly love.

That is why I cannot go to him.

By chance, have you seen Soon Dol meet another man?

Pardon?

The only people she would meet were either palace ladies or eunuchs,

so if you can think of eunuchs as men, then I suppose so.

What I mean is,

have you seen her

meet a man in private,

consistently,

personally, just the two of them by themselves?

- I have! - Who is he?

Is she not with you all the time like that?

Not me. Someone who is really stupid.

A dimwit who is smart but lacks awareness.

Pardon?

Forget it.

Never mind.

What does it matter who that guy is...

Just fix the door.

You should take extra good care of him.

- He's your younger sibling. - Yes, Father.

I will command the Royal Physician to take extra good care of him

so do not be too worried, Queen.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Oh, Mother!

Please escort her to the Queen's Palace. I will follow you.

No. I must stay by the Grand Prince's side.

That is what I will do.

Grand Prince.

I must know the truth in order for your mother to protect you, Grand Prince.

Did you really give a peach

to Crown Prince Ui Hyeon?

Grandfather...

gave me a peach.

[3 years ago] Grandfather!

Wow, peaches!

Elder Hyungnim! Guess what is in my sleeve!

What have you hidden inside it this time?

This is yours, Elder Hyungnim,

and this is mine.

It looks quite delicious.

Looking at the peaches reminded me of you!

He gave the peaches to me to share with Elder Hyungnim...

After the Elder Hyungnim ate that peach, he...

I heard what the eunuchs were saying.

The reason Elder Hyungnim passed away was because of a peach.

Younger Hyungnim did not give him a peach. It was me.

Because of the peach I gave him, Elder Hyungnim...

No.

It is not your fault.

Do not cry. You did not know anything.

All you did was carry out what Grandfather told you to do.

Pay attention and listen carefully to what your mother is saying.

You must never speak of such things ever again.

This never happened. It was just a dream.

You only dreamed of such a thing.

You have never done something like that.

You must forget it.

You must forget it so that you can live.

You must live in order for your mother to live as well.

Answer me.

Tell me that you will not

ever speak of this again!

Yes, Mother.

I will go to my orabeoni.

His Highness is not here right now.

He is currently reading in the library,

but he ordered us not to let anyone enter the library.

I see.

- Never mind. Perhaps this is for the best. - Pardon?

Do not tell Orabeoni that I dropped by.

Eunuch Go, follow me.

Pardon?

The Grand Prince said such a thing?

What do you think happened?

You solved the Sabangahn case,

and I heard your wisdom played a big factor

in proving the innocence of the Left State Minister.

Do you think what the Grand Prince said was true?

How could I know that?

Only the Grand Prince would know the truth-

However, when Crown Prince Ui Hyeon passed away, the Grand Prince was only seven years old.

And even if he did give him the peach, he would not have had any malicious intentions.

Would the intentions be important?

Once this comes to light, the entire palace will be in an uproar

and I do not know if the Grand Prince will be safe.

I am sorry, Your Highness,

but I feel this is something you should tell His Highness.

So why did you say it was a good thing that His Highness was not in his chambers?

He will soon be married.

The Grand Prince has been saying nonsense like

seeing a ghost and a snake, and now

he says he gave a peach to Crown Prince Ui Hyeon.

How could everything that he says be true?

It would just trouble Orabeoni for no reason.

He says he sees a ghost and a snake?

He saw a snake come out from the head shaman's body.

He already gets easily scared, so how shocked must he have been?

No. Never mind.

My mind was so chaotic. I should not have told you.

Do not tell His Highness about this.

You, too, should forget this.

Yes, Your Highness.

Scholar Park-

Is Young Master Kim inside?

Yes, but...

he wrote down what we discussed on a big piece of paper,

and he keeps staring at it without even eating.

He will soon figure out the answer.

But what brings you here?

Is this not the fabric for woman's clothing?

How many dresses would you be able to make with this?

Well, if you do not waste any fabric, you could probably make about 6 or 7 outfits...

I mean,

how would a man like me know that...

but my mother does sewing work,

so I am telling you this from having seen her work.

Then,

make some woman's clothing for me with this fabric.

Make about five dresses for Min Jae Yi,

and make two dresses for yourself.

If you lack fabric, then I will get you some more.

Wait...

how will I know that murderer, Maiden Min Jae Yi?

Also, why do you tell me to use this fabric to make dresses for me when I am a man?

Gosh.

I know that you are Jang Ga Ram-

I-I am sorry, Scholar Sir.

- Then... - I also know that Go Soon Dol

is Min Jae Yi.

Watch yourself.

Do not go around by yourself, but always go with your master.

Is not a capture-and-return order out for you?

But...

why are you having clothes made for My Lady?

When everything is resolved,

will she not have to return to her life?

How long can she stay in the palace wearing a eunuch uniform?

And the same goes for you as well.

How long can you live wearing a man's clothes?

Why are you blocking the road?

I mean, you can just pass through this way...

We always stick to the side of this house when we pass by.

The Grand Prince has been saying nonsense like seeing a ghost and a snake,

and now he says he gave a peach to Crown Prince Ui Hyeon.

Is he truly speaking nonsense?

Your Highness, welcome. You have returned.

Sit down.

How come you did not take me with you?

Going out of the palace with the Guardian Warrior is dangerous.

I have not stopped being suspicious of him yet.

It is all right.

Have I not returned safely without any problems?

So where did you go?

When you cross the Tongun Bridge from Jangtong-bang

and take a left at the first fork in the road,

you will see a quiet tile-roofed house.

That place is...

Who is it?

Who is the dimwit you are in love with?

Are you asking me that again?

Are you sure you are even in love with him?

Tell me who it is that

you ended up loving him.

If I were to send you to him,

should I not know what kind of a man he is?

If he really is a stupid dimwit like you say he is,

would someone sharp like you have fallen in love with him?

If you cannot tell me his name,

tell me why you ended up secretly loving him.

He is tall and handsome.

I guess you do not know that a good-looking man could cost you heartache.

Also, how could you look at just his external appearance?

He also excels in both pen and sword.

Also, that man

possesses inner fortitude and overcomes all sorts of hardships.

He learned the basics of medicine that can save a life, despite others looking down upon it.

He is also a warm and compassionate person

and is considerate.

Even though you may be wearing a man's clothes,

I have never forgotten that you are a woman.

He is a reliable man who knows to protect a woman walking by herself at night.

Did you say that Joseon does not tell a girl,

"Yes, you can. Do it. Try it"?

As the one who will become my first people,

I will give all of those permissions.

Yes, you can.

Do it. Try it.

He is someone who opens a new path

for a woman who is stuck,

blocked by a high wall.

Where is such a man like that?

He is someone who might show up in fantasy novels on the streets?

There is a man like that!

I am saying that he is a dimwit for not knowing he is that kind of a man.

Go away.

- Pardon? - I was going to give you a great gift to you today,

but I just cannot because I do not like this.

How could you do that? You should give me what you were going to give me.

- What kind of gift is it? - I told you to go away.

D-D-Do you like it?

It is beautiful.

This is why people talk about Goryeo celadon so much.

Oh, yes!

Gosh, if I just did not break that white porcelain last time,

I would have given you celadon pottery to place on your right

and white porcelain to place on your left.

Gosh, because of that lowly young bastard...

You can bring it next time.

It would be great if I could place...

white porcelain right next to this celadon pottery.

What would be an appropriate way

for me to kill that evil and wretched man?

The time will come soon, Your Highness.

He dares to use even my son for his greed...

That he would put blood on that young child's hands when he was only seven...

I will...

have him torn apart from limb to limb.

He will have no burial place under heaven.

I will throw his flesh and bones as food for the animals.

The children of that wicked man will be ashamed of their father's name,

and the whole world will spit

at the mention of his name.

Even if I were to die and become a ghost,

I will not...

forgive him.

Do so, Your Highness.

It will be as you have said.

Well, Hyungnim. Have you heard?

I heard that the Han family of Youngsan sent someone as a Queen Selection candidate.

Of course, I heard.

Do you think anything happens in Hangyang that I do not know about?

Will it be okay to let that happen?

If the Crown Princess ends up coming from the Han family of Youngsan, gosh...

If the Han family of Youngsan fully supports the Crown Prince...

Gosh, would it be easy

to depose the Crown Prince?

I have a plan for everything.

I hold the card that would disable the Han family of Youngsan from protecting the Crown Prince.

- Shall I show you my plan? - Yes.

Since you brought me the celadon pottery, I will show you my plan.

- Wait. - You will know when the time comes.

Your Excellency, you have a guest.

Your Excellency, I, Jo Han Seo, offer you my greetings.

What brings you here?

Aigoo, look who this is!

Is this not the commander who came all the way to Byeokcheon to rescue me?

Gosh, it is so good to see you!

Wait, I believe you are my great-great-grandfather's

cousin's grandson's uncle's son. Right, right!

Minister of Justice, you are a hyungnim twelve times removed from me.

Yes, if we are twelve times removed cousins,

we are pretty close, are we not? Is that not so, Hyungnim?

- So, what brings you here? - The thing is...

Speak. It is all right.

Do you remember Park Han Soo, who was one of the commanders at the time?

Not too long ago, I met him.

This is of utmost importance, so I cannot speak it rashly.

The whole world will be turned upside down.

Are you not curious about what words will come from my lips?

Please tell him that I said that.

He said something like that?

Your Excellency, he is full of spite, barely hanging on the edge

barely hanging on the edge from wasting all his money on gambling.

If he exposes what happened in Byeokcheon...

No, no! That cannot be!

Hyungnim, what does he know about that he is rambling on like that?

What do we do if he goes somewhere and starts talking about those things?

We cannot let something like that happen.

This is the transaction record

of the landlord who sold the land around Mapo to Park Han Soo ten years ago.

It shows that Park Han Soo made the transaction using certified promissory notes

under Jo Won Bo, the household manager of the Jo family of Seongju.

It is the only corroborative evidence that proves the connection between

Park Han Soo and the Jo family of Seongju.

What is Park Han Soo doing these days?

He is still going around gambling houses drunk.

I must meet him in person.

Since we have corroborative evidence, I must ask him

what transaction took place that the Right State Minister

gave him so much money.

Your Highness.

Your opponent is the Jo family of Seongju.

I fear that your safety may be at risk

after going up against them, Your Highness.

If that happens,

you can protect me.

How could you trust me so steadfastly?

You have never let me down.

So, how could I not trust you?

I will...

never betray your trust, Your Highness.

You must watch out for this man.

You must distance yourself from him! You must oust him!

The herald who came to Gaeseong was him.

I am not confused. My memories are clear.

The one who shot the arrow at you a year ago

would have been possible because it was him.

Are you outside, Gap Soo?

Did you call for me, Your Excellency?

Find the man named Park Han Soo.

Since he goes around gambling houses, you should be able to find him pretty easily.

Since he says he has something to tell me,

should I not hear him out, at least?

Shall I drag him here?

Make about five dresses for Min Jae Yi,

and make two dresses for yourself.

Since this is something that a scholar of high standing brought,

you probably cannot find a fabric like this on these streets here.

Please change them into these.

All right. Let us take a look.

Hey! Give me more! More!

It is such a valuable fabric!

You should at least give me this much!

All right!

Wait... You are...

Who are you?

Hey, why did you leave without your fabric? Sir!

Sir, where are you going?

Sir. What is the matter?

- I am sure it was her. - Pardon?

Whom did you see?

The maidservant at the Governor's private residence in Gaeseong.

I saw that maidservant.

She should've become a government servant if she is that family's maidservant.

That is what I mean.

How is she in Hanyang dressed up as a man?

Gosh, you probably saw it wrong.

Maybe it was someone who looked like her.

Meo Roo, Dal Rae.

Come here.

It is the student of Manyeondang.

Let me take a look at you.

Stand up straight.

All right.

Your height is about this tall.

Dal Rae, you should come here, too.

Dal Rae is about this tall.

Now, stretch out your arms.

Like this. Dal Rae, you, too.

What are you doing?

I got some nice fabric,

so I will ask my mother to make your clothes.

- Really? - Yeah.

But Mother and Father recently bought us new clothes.

Of course, they did.

But is it not always good to have more clothes?

Thank you. I do not know what to say.

Are you sending things to your hometown again?

- Yeah. - You two are really amazing.

That you would work day and night

to take care of your family in your hometown...

Where is your hometown?

Well, it is such a small, faraway place

that you would not know even if I told you.

Help me with this.

You asked me if the Byeokcheon people are all bandits, right?

That is not true.

Byeokcheon people are not bandits.

How do you know that?

Then, can I tell people that my hometown is Byeokcheon now?

If someone...

asks where your hometown is, you do not need to tell them it is Byeokcheon.

However,

you should not be ashamed of coming from Byeokcheon.

Among the people of Byeokcheon,

there were no bandits.

How could it be a sin to be born in Byeokcheon?

Just for being born in that land,

if they accuse you of being a thief, point fingers at you, and discriminate against you,

those people are the ones to blame. It is not your fault.

But everyone hates people from Byeokcheon.

Even the King hates the Byeokcheon people,

Byeokcheon people cannot even take the State Exam.

Not everyone hates Byeokcheon people.

Look at the handsome scholars who brought you here.

Did they not help you even though they knew you were from Byeokcheon?

That is right.

Manyeondang's young master and his student said they would make clothes for us.

By chance, have you ever been to Byeokcheon?

A lot of affectionate people lived there together.

Although government officials came barging in

to take this and that,

they barely managed to survive with a gaunt appearance and empty stomachs.

But they knew how to share even a bean with one another.

The people of Byeokcheon.

I saw government officials beat the people of Byeokcheon.

Do you remember anything from Byeokcheon?

When it was spring, dandelions would bloom in the fields,

and the whole village would be filled with a warm color.

I remember blowing those dandelions with my friend.

By chance,

do you remember...

your friend's name?

Oh Wol?

I am...

I am Oh Wol's mother.

Hey!

If my Oh Wol did not die and was alive,

she would have grown tall like you.

Then, do you know our parents as well?

Of course, we know them.

When you were born, your father planted a royal foxglove tree in the front yard.

He said he would make you a wardrobe when you got married...

I was right beside him, then.

Do you remember anything else about Byeokcheon?

I remember a fish.

It was a redfish.

We prayed to that fish.

I heard it was a thousand-year-old fish.

I heard my mother's mother's mother also prayed there.

Goodness.

That she would remember that fish...

I heard that fish ate the blood of human beings.

Dummy. How does that make sense?

What could a fish eat human blood?

Also, how can a fish live a thousand years?

It was probably that fish's descendant.

No. That fish does not have offspring.

Because although it lays eggs, the eggs do not hatch into fish.

Come on, how could you believe that?

That egg is really dangerous.

If a person eats that egg, they will go crazy.

Do the two of you know this story, too?

Yes. There was a fish like that in Byeokcheon.

I heard from my mother that it was a fish brought by

a monk from a faraway land.

Supposedly, it really was a thousand-year-old fish.

You see. You do not even know anything.

The first round of selection is happening today.

That is why all the impressive ladies from all eight provinces of Joseon are here.

But the rumor says there is a lady who was already selected internally.

Apparently, she is from the Han family of Yeongsan.

Have you not heard that it is a lady from the Left State Minister's family?

The Left State Minister?

Will you just sit back and watch?

The Left State Minister could not have gotten involved in the selection without any plan.

- He must have had something to rely on- - Come on! Seriously...

Do you think the Queen will want the Han family of Yeongsan as her royal relative?

You are so thoughtless.

Also, Hyungnim must have it all figured out.

Just be quiet and watch.

Minister, how come you are back in the office already?

Did you really request Gibok?* (Breaking the rule of not holding a position while mourning)

The royal marriage that determines the country's well-being is approaching.

I cannot keep mourning my dead child.

Did you send her off well?

Yes. Thanks to your help, I put the grave in a mountain that has a good spirit.

However, Your Excellency,

I heard a strange rumor when I went to Jangju to find a grave for my daughter.

You must feel quite pressured.

You did it out of loyalty. What could I do even if it went wrong?

How could I not know about your unyielding loyalty?

However, I am afraid you might get hurt

by carrying all the weight on your own.

Her heart must be even heavier.

But she is a strong child. I am sure she will hang in there.

Yes.

Han Joong Seop's house is in Jangju, as you know.

The rumor was that his wife had died.

If someone died, they should have announced the death-

Could it have been because they wanted to apply for the selection...

In order to become the crown princess, both of her parents have to be alive!

A woman who does not meet the criteria cannot even apply for the selection!

If they applied by hiding the fact that they disqualify,

it means that the high and mighty Han family of Yeongsan

lied to the country, does it not?

Apparently, they snuck the body out at night

and buried her without even putting up a gravestone.

But it is just a rumor among the servants.

I am not certain whether the rumor is true or not.

It is something we just need to find out about.

The Han family of Yeongsan

volunteered to destroy themselves like this!

What a blessing this is!

What is this? What a strange lady.

- She kept this until it attracted bugs- - What is going on?

Sir.

We kept seeing bugs in the Jangju lady's room while cleaning,

so we looked through her stuff and...

we found this mugwort.

I think the dried mugwort absorbed moisture and attracted bugs.

It indeed belongs to her. Dry it well and put it back.

Yes.

She burns mugwort every night?

Gosh...

it is not like she is mourning.

"Mourning"?

How could you say something like that?

Why would So Eun need to mourn any dead person?

But she burns mugwort facing North every night.

Is that not strange?

Come on! She is going to be the Crown Prince's wife.

Do not run your mouth like that.

Yeon Ha of the Shim family.

So Eun of the Han family.

Gyeong In of the Ham family.

The first round of selection is happening today.

That is why all the impressive ladies from all eight provinces of Joseon are here.

Where is he going at this hour?

I know!

I am sorry! Are you okay?

I am sorry.

Hey!

"Hey"?

Seriously, that little...

Do you not know I am above you?

Are you fearless now that you are a woman in the eunuch's uniform?

I am the guardian warrior of the seventh rank.

You are a maintenance eunuch of the eighth rank.

How dare you "Hey" me like that?

Why did you pass the Royal Kitchen just now?

Why would I go there? I am coming from the Royal Bodyguard Unit.

I definitely saw you near the Royal Kitchen.

Sure. I must have walked by the Royal Kitchen since you insist.

Do you think that is the only place I passed?

I walked around Mt. Geumgang this morning

and I went to Mt. Jiri at midday.

I am about to go to Gaeseong now.

According to you, I should be able to travel that distance in a minute.

How annoying.

I definitely saw him.

I could not even win once. Not even once.

Who are you?

You wanted to see the Right State Minister, did you not?

His Excellency sent me.

I knew he would be looking for me.

Let us go!

I am sorry, but I need to check if what you need to say

is worthy of His Excellency's time first.

How could I trust you and reveal everything right now?

Let us go. I will see him first-

Tell His Excellency that the girl from the Song family of Byeokcheon is alive.

Tell him that I know who that girl is.

I definitely saw her coming out of the Right State Minister's

house and getting on a carriage.

If His Excellency hears where that

carriage was headed to,

he would be shocked.

I will relay your message

to His Excellency.

Also...

I will tell you about the order he gave me, too.

Listen carefully.

What is the use of bringing that blabbermouth here?

When he finishes talking,

cut his throat.

I am sure he is bringing up something insignificant

trying to leech off the Jo family of Seongju.

He is less than a bug. Why let him live?

We are late.

Park Han Soo apparently left a moment ago.

I should go to his house.

It is Park Han Soo.

Look! Wake up!

Who hurt you?

Was it the Right State Minister?

Who...

sent you here?

Tell me. What exactly happened in Byeokcheon?

What are they trying to hide by doing this to you?

Ten years ago, in Byeokcheon,

there was no such thing as a flag

for a new country at all.

What we saw was...

a white flag.

The people of Byeokcheon...

Those foolish people...

put up a white flag without knowing they would die.

They were just sitting in the government office like fools.

They...

They tried to hide that.

That is why they paid the officials.

But there is something the Right State Minister does not know.

A woman...

from the Song family is in the palace.

A woman from the Song family is...

A woman from the Song family

came out of my house

and got on a carriage?

Crazy bastard.

He must be really out of his mind.

He tried to get money from me by making that up?

A woman from the Song family is in the palace?

The woman wearing a hood, the shaman of the Shamanist Bureau mentioned.

That woman must be the wife of the Song family.

But how could a wife of the Song family be able to enter the palace?

She cannot have become a court lady, can she?

A married woman cannot become a court lady.

Get out of my chamber right now!

I do not want the medicine or the acupuncture!

Get Elder Hyungnim out of here!

Your Highness, please calm down!

He must have gone insane.

Get the ghost out of here! Immediately!

Your Highness! We deserve to die!

Your Highness, what do you mean a ghost...

By "Elder Hyungnim," you mean...

- What is the matter? - Noonim!

I cannot live here! Elder Hyungnim is...

there...

He is right there.

Can you not see him?

He is staring at me right there!

I heard you sent the lunch back, too.

Stop worrying about Grand Prince and start taking care of yourself.

I am sorry, Princess.

I feel like I always...

make you worry.

Your Highness, it was not the Grand Prince.

He could not have given Crown Prince Ui Hyeon the peach.

He is a kind and docile kid.

How could he do something like that?

He just said that because of the fever.

There have been so many rumors since Crown Prince Ui Hyeon passed.

You are aware of that, too.

He must have heard the rumor that the Crown Prince gave Elder Orabeoni the peach.

That must be why he said that.

Having that rumor about the Crown Prince suffocates me, too.

But now even the Grand Prince...

I am afraid, Princess.

Do not worry, Your Highness.

I will make sure to cure the Grand Prince.

He is my only younger sibling.

Princess.

Thank you.

Do not mention it.

When my mother...

passed away,

you mourned without eating or changing for three days.

And when I got smallpox, you set the young Grand Prince aside

and took care of me by staying by my side.

How could I forget that?

It was my duty.

Any mother...

Any mother would have done that.

Yes, that is true.

So I will protect you and the Grand Prince as well.

Do not worry.

Princess.

Thank you for considering me

as your mother.

You gave birth to my younger brother.

You are my mother as well.

Please take extra care of Mother.

Would it be okay to leave Princess like that?

Should I give her to the Chief State Minister?

Just leave it.

I will do it myself.

A woman from the Song family

came out of my house and got on a carriage?

A woman from the Song family...

How did a woman from the Song family come to my house

and if she did,

could she have left alive?

Oh Man Shik said something similar in Paju once, too.

It reeked of blood everywhere.

The father died, the mother died,

the son died, and the daughter died.

Because of your father's order!

None of them were a bandit.

Just as Oh Man Shik said,

if there were no bandits in Byeokcheon from the beginning,

and just as Park Han Soo said, if there was a white flag when the soldiers arrived,

they were not bandits. They were just the people of the country.

If the people put up the white flag and waited for the royal forces at the government office-

At least,

they could not have been the bandits

who were treacherous to start a new country, as the Diaries of the Royal Secretariat said.

If they put up a white flag and waited for the royal force...

They must have asked to be rescued.

If that were true,

the report from the Minister of Justice, Jo Won Oh, the governor of Byeokcheon

and Right State Minister's report, which said he subjugated Byeokcheon

and the people there were traitors.

All of that was a lie!

We must find the remnants to find out the truth

about Byeokcheon from ten years ago.

If Park Han Soo was right about the wife of the Song family being in the palace,

there must be a way to find out.

Even if she were in the palace, she must have changed her identity already.

Perhaps...

she left when the palace workers from Byeokcheon

were expelled recently.

[Princess Ha Yeon]

Song. Ga. Myeol. Yi!

The Song family will destroy the Yi family!

How could he believe something like that to be true?

Was he possessed by a ghost or something?

Could Young really have been possessed by something

and be mistaken about his relationship with me?

Why did he kill my family?

He wasn't even from Byeokcheon.

Why?

[Showing up in the East and then in the West...]

Showing up in the East

and then in the West.

He is in the East

and in the West as well.

[Assassinate Princess Ha Yeon]

There is someone who could cure the Grand Prince?

Yes, according to what I heard from other court ladies,

a monk with a special power that gives peace to people

who are grief-stricken, just arrived in the capital recently.

So he is not a physician.

That is why...

I am worried.

Using...

sorcery might cause us trouble.

We cannot just leave Grand Prince like that.

The medicine from the physician does not even work.

I will be responsible for everything.

I will save the Grand Prince.

Does Mother know about this, too?

If you make up your mind, I will let her know.

You cannot.

Mother is too fainthearted to allow sorcery from outside of the palace.

This must stay between you and me.

Do you understand?

Yes, Your Highness.

Also, they must not find out who we are, either.

That would be out of the question.

Do not worry about that.

But...

there is no way for him to enter the palace.

I will find a way.

You should try contacting him.

Every minute counts.

By chance...

do you have a solution?

I do, but...

[Assassinate Princess Ha Yeon]

Do you see how cleanly and perfectly I sorted everything out?

I even found out about the things you did not tell me

and summarized everything.

No matter how you try to leave me out,

there is no use at all.

We all work for His Highness together.

How come the three of you chitter-chatter behind my back?

What do you mean, "chitter-chatter"?

Oh, was it...

- jibber-jabber, then? - Seriously!

We were going to tell you when things become clearer.

I will keep an eye on you, Friend.

Do not ever try to leave me out!

There is a secret I found out about.

Yes, let us talk about that later. I will go first.

The Guardian Warrior.

He shows up in the East and then in the West.

Is that not strange?

Noonim.

Where are we going?

I am scared.

Do not worry.

You just need to trust me.

The air is cold at night.

Princess.

Did she dress warmly?

He showed up in Gaeseong, and he was at the palace at the same time.

Even when the red letters that said "Song Ga Myeol Yi" were spread,

we were definitely with him, and he was at the palace, too.

That is so strange.

How could a person show up here and there, too?

Right? Right?

What is wrong?

How could one person show up in multiple places at once?

Sir, where should I put this?

Put the pot in the kitchen.

- It is late at night. Hurry up! - Yes!

There are two Tae Kangs.

Do you mean the Guardian Warrior has two bodies?

That is correct. He has two bodies.

If there were two Tae Kangs,

one of them could have shot the Crown Prince

and the other could have stayed by his side.

They are twins.

That is right. That would have been possible if they were twins.

[Showing up in the East and then in the West]

[The Guardian Warrior's face]

[Our Blooming Youth]

One of them was next to the Crown Prince

and the other one with the same face is related to horrible crimes.

They must be on the same side!

Why are you doing this to me?

You mean it can control people's minds?

Your painful memories will disappear now.

Your Highness!

Someone tried to kill the princess and the grand prince of the country.

Father must know about this.

Crown Prince, how much did you find out?
