01x09 - Episode 9

[bunniefuu]

How could you let such a thing happen?

Who was the one who told me
to lead the interrogation?

How dare you make me
listen to that disgraceful curse

from that filthy shaman?

It was you wasn't it, Lord Cho?

Your Majesty, how could you be swayed
by the words of a heinous k*ller?

They are just the remnants
of a band of thieves.

The remnants of a band of thieves?

You arrested Song,
the leader of the thieves, 10 years ago

and received merit subject land
and sl*ves.

So how are there thieves still left?

Are you sure you subjugated them?

That's not all.

Everyone here is in on it.

Who are you people?

You were named merit subjects
and get monthly paychecks,

so what have you been doing?

Is your country Joseon or your family?

I heard everyone in the Cho family

is working in a government post.

I heard the storage in Bukchon
where you live

reeks of rotting meat and fish.

What have you been doing

other than increase your fortune and power?

Tell me what you've done for me

or the Crown Prince or the Grand Prince.

Your Majesty.
Of course, we feel terrible as well.

Lord Cho!

Not another word.

I do not want to hear anything from you.

If anyone talks

about what happened today at the interrogation
or spread rumors outside the palace,

not only will he be severely punished,

but his family and relatives as well.

We will do as your ordered, Your Majesty.

Bing me Sun-dol.

Pardon?

Bring me Go Sun-dol.

Stop!

How dare you try
to hurt my friend and apprentice.

You are so dead.

It's too dangerous.

You can't. There are two of them.

SONG, GA, MYEOL, LEE

I have to go see His Highness.

But he was kicked out.

Did you get hurt?

Are you okay?

Yes, Master.

You must've been afraid.

You must've been lonely.

Yes. I was afraid and lonely.

You must've felt frustrated
because you didn't know who to fight.

I can't fight a ghost, can I?

It's not just
Crown Prince Hwan they are after.

They are trying to curse
the entire royal family

so that they can take over Joseon.

Can I start working
in the East Palace again?

I think that's not a good idea.

Even though I said that

I really wish you were here right now.

I'm on my way, Your Highness.

I will stay next to you.

How could the shaman talk

about the Song family of Byeokcheon?

I know.

The fact that the m*rder*r is

a shaman of the Office of Shamanism.

I wonder why Song's ghost possessed her

when he died over 10 years ago.

What happened to the plum tree
in the palace?

It was struck by lightning?

Right when the shaman was trying
to curse His Majesty.

Didn't it look like a ghost's curse?

Gosh, watch your mouth.

We must establish a directorate

and reinvestigate
the Byeokcheon case from 10 years ago.

We must ask His Majesty
to reopen the case?

Lord Kim,
doesn't the case from 10 years ago bothers you?

His Majesty is keeping
the Cho family in check,

so this is our chance.

I'm not sure who did it,

but it's certain that this is
a chance to weaken the Cho family's power.

All right.

I think you all want to know
what this means,

so gather around.

What this means is that

the Song family will destroy
the Lee family.

It means something like that.

Who are the Song family?

It's the Song family of Byeokcheon.

The leader of those thieves.

Then who is the Lee family
the Song family is going to destroy?

My gosh.

The King, Crown Prince, Grand Prince,
Princess and their relatives

are all in the Lee family.

So the shaman of the Office of Shamanism
was possessed by the Song family ghost

and k*lled all those people
to curse the royal family?

And right before I came here, I heard that

the plum tree in
the palace caught on fire.

What is plum tree
in Chinese characters? "Lee."

The Song family ghost showed an example.

I will burn you all

like this plum tree.

There were rumors
about the Crown Prince being cursed.

Is it really true?

Gosh, what is going on in this country?

-Did something happen?
-Weren't you with Eunuch Go?

He's already on his way to the palace.

Everything's a mess here.

These papers just fell from the sky.

Here.

SONG, GA, MYEOL, LEE

How could only the plum tree catch on fire

out of all the trees here?

Does a ghost really exist

and did it strike the plum tree on fire

so that I and my family can see?

That's not possible.

A living human being must've done it.

Your Highness, this smell...

It's similar to the smell of gunpowder
which was used in Gaeseong

when they trained the soldiers.

It's probably sulfur.

But the fire couldn't have lasted
that long with sulfur alone.

I'll go ask the master of Manyeondang
tomorrow.

What is going on?

They were the soldiers
who guarded the shaman.

They died last night.

Show me their bodies.

I chased after the man who shot the arrow,

but I lost him
because the other guys showed up.

How many of them are there?

Who are they getting their orders from?

Have you looked into the peony?

All I heard is that
it could be from South East Asia.

I heard that they brush oil

on the dried petals and burn them.

South East Asia...

Your Highness,
Section Chief Han is here.

Enter.

There was a clear bite mark
from a snake on his neck and shoulder.

I'm thinking it's the same snake that bit

the shaman at the interrogation.

It's strange, isn't it?

And a bloody dagger was found
in the prison cell

where the shaman was held.

She must've used it to carve the letters.

I guess there's no way to find out

who gave the dagger
and snake to the shaman.

Are you still chasing Oh Man-sik
who messed with the prayer?

Yes, Your Highness.
He had an older brother who passed away.

His sister-in-law and nephews live
in Inchang so he visits there often.

I have one of my men undercover,

so if Oh Man-sik tries
to reach out to them,

we'll be able to catch him.

We must catch him.

He may be involved in what happened.

Were you surprised?

He wanted to see the interrogation, so...

He already saw it.
There's nothing we can do.

It's not your fault.

How is he?

He's just in shock.

He'll get better with a little rest.

I will brew some medicine
to help him calm down.

Thank you.

Mother.

Who are the Song family from Byeokcheon?

Do you know who they are Ha-yeon?

You must get some rest.

-When you get better, I'll...
-I want to know now.

Is the Song family even alive?

Or have they become a ghost?

Not knowing is scarier.

Do you know, Court Lady Han?

Ten years ago,

a band of thieves rose up
in rebellion in Byeokcheon.

Song was the leader of the thieves.

How could a mere thief become a ghost

and curse the royal family?

What happened to him?

Lord Cho, who was the Minister
of Defense back then,

went to Byeokcheon himself
and subjugated the thieves

-And Song also...
-That's enough.

Yes, Your Highness.

Did grandfather subjugate them?

Mother, since grandfather subjugated them,

he'll also stop Song's ghost, right?

I am Song and I came back
because innocent people in Byeokcheon

were k*lled wrongly.

I may have become a ghost,

but my soul sits upon the throne.

The Song family will destroy the Lee family

and become the king!

You filthy thief!

He's still alive. How tenacious.

He slaughtered and kidnapped the nobles,

women, and children.
What else is there to say?

I can't believe the soldiers
and the shaman

were all bitten by a gloydius saxatilis.

Read it.

It's Sim Yeong's second autopsy report.

The coroner checked the number of wounds

and if any
of the wounds contributed to his death,

but he was clean aside
from the bruise on his neck.

The bruise was blackish red,
his eyes were closed

and his mouth was open.

If someone k*lled him beforehand
and made it seem like a suicide,

these symptoms cannot appear.

It was definitely a suicide

and the suicide note was
in his handwriting.

Since the students
at the Confucian school testified,

it was definitely a suicide.
They said he kept searching your house

for something
after your family passed away.

Is there anything you can think of?

What is this...

Sim Yeong left these behind.

The suicide note and the jade bracelet were
on the floor.

Keep them safe.

But I'm not sure how to explain this.

Yeong's hair was white?

No, that's wrong.
It changed out of the blue.

Yeong didn't have black hair
when I left Gaeseong.

Do you remember?

The shaman also had white hair.

What is going on?

The shaman used to come to Gaeseong to pray.

First the peony petals,

then the white hair...

And the gloydius saxatilis that k*lled
the messenger and hurt me.

It must be
the doing of the same person.

And another thing.

The ghost's letter.

The shaman knew about the ghost's letter.

Do you think

the remaining thieves of Byeokcheon
are behind everything?

Is anyone there?

Hurry up.

Is anyone there?

Let me down.

Won-bo.

Take a look at this.

There really were

some thieves left after all.

What do we do?

That shaman was also part of the thieves.

When she was cursing the king,

wasn't it as if Song had

return from Byeokcheon?

Gosh, he's going to come back as a ghost

to slice my throat

with a sickle, Won-bo.

Our family isn't the one

Song is cursing, isn't it?

Pardon?

Oh.

Right.

You're right, Won-bo.

He cursed the Lee family,

not the Cho family.

I can't believe I missed that.

But

why is he cursing the royal family

instead of you and me.

Isn't it only natural to curse the person

-who k*lled him?
-What?

But you were the one who...

Without the King's orders,
how could I have gone

to Byeocheon to subjugate him?

Right. The King's orders.

He was the one who ordered us

to hang that horrible man alive.

We're fine.

Everything

was His Majesty's will.

The Lee family. Yes.

So whether it's a ghost or not,
what does it have to do with our family?

Right.

Anyway,

His Majesty just disgraced our family.

What do you think will happen?

Well, do you have any other plans in mind?

Of course I do.

A crisis is an opportunity.

I'm worried His Majesty

might reinvestigate the Byeokcheon case.

It won't happen.

I'll make sure of it.

I'm actually more afraid of the thieves
than His Majesty.

If there are thieves, I will find them

and stop the reinvestigation
from happening

so don't worry about anything. Understood?

Yes, Won-bo.

Gosh, Won-bo. Damn you, Lees.

What am I supposed to do with this?

Dictation.

What is that?

You will write what I say on the ground.

-With this stick?
-Yes.

Go ahead. I will write it down.

You are a rude lady.

"A rude lady."

You are an awful lady.

You are a ridiculous woman

who counts her chicken

before they hatch.

I am a man who has an ideal woman.

How could you be so cold-hearted

like an icicle on the North Pole

and just say whatever you want
before leaving?

Is this
for the Minister of Personnel's daughter?

I can still see those
arrogant back of yours

which makes me so angry

and my head is about to burst.

The Minister of Personnel's daughter?
I don't care.

A lady who only has a pretty face?
I care even less.

Myeong-jin doesn't wait for someone
like you.

Myeong-jin is a loser.

Someone warm and kind.

Someone who will appreciate
what I'm worth.

Someone who has beautiful

and special eyes.

Myeong-jin is crazy.

I hate you, so go away.

Go far away!

Did you get all that?

I haven't learned properly,
so I couldn't write it down.

Why weren't you able to say anything
in front of her when you're so good at it?

Good question.

Why do you think I wasn't able to?

Because you were afraid
your mother might smack you with a pestle?

My gosh, you are such a wise apprentice.

How did you know that?

But Master, your emotions were good.

I mean, you seemed a little crazy,

but you said everything you should've.

It makes me feel refreshed
like I drank a cup of iced water.

Since the marriage is off anyway,
if you run into her

tell her everything you just said now.

Try me.

If I run into that icicle lady again,

I will humiliate her good.

Will you be able to do that?

Of course.

My apprentice, write this down.

Yes, Master. Just start talking.

Myeong-jin is brave.

He is indeed a great man.

Myeong-jin is brave.

He is indeed a great man.

Well, look at you.

You really learned all the letters?

Yes, Master.

If you tell me to memorize something,
I memorize it.

-You is your master?
-You are.

Who's your apprentice?

Of course, it's you.

Oh, hello.

Eunuch Go.

I came by to ask you something.

Come on in.

Lightning struck and the plum tree caught on fire.

And it smelled like sulfur.

But there's no way a fire will last that long
with just sulfur alone.

If it's mixed with something
and brushed on the tree,

it could be possible.

What if it was mixed with niter?

What's a niter?

It's used to make gunpowder.

And one more thing. Maybe beeswax?

Isn't beeswax used to make valuable candles?

If those three things were mixed

and if someone lit the tree on fire
when the lighting hit

it could've fooled people into thinking
that it was the actual lightning.

Wow. You're good, Myeong-jin.

But

who could get those three ingredients?

I should return to the palace.

I should get going too.

It may be His Highness' orders,
but nothing's free in the world.

His Highness wants everything handed to him
on a silver platter.

Gosh.

So would you like me to go to the palace

and tell him that?

Well...

No, of course not.

My master likes to talk to himself

so that's what he was doing.

Myeong-jin does that out of habit sometimes.

Well, it's almost lunchtime...

I'll buy lunch in
His Highness' stead.

Oh, I'm very grateful.

I prepared something in advance
because I knew you were

-such a generous person.
-Prepared what?

Master Kim!

Come on in.

I hope I came at the right time.

Perfect timing.

I knew you were going to treat us,
so I ordered beforehand.

Gosh.

-Thank you, Scholar Park.
-Thank you.

-Enjoy.
-Thank you.

It's delicious.

I thought I won't be able to have
any lunch today.

Does His Highness
not give you anything to eat?

Of course, not.

The royal kitchen is overflowing with food,

but I'm just a mere eunuch of the East Palace

who only gets this much salary.

If I miss lunchtime,
no one will get me lunch.

And His Highness makes me run
so many errands.

Go here, go there.

Do this, do that.

After I run all his errands,

sometimes I find myself
drinking a bowl of water for dinner.

But he never once asked me

if I had dinner.

-What did I tell you?
-Gosh.

What do you think, Scholar Park?

Everyone looks up to him calling him
"Your Highness,"

so how could he know
what the lowly people are going through?

I think His Highness has a lot of problems.

Have a drink.

Here. Let's all have a drink.

He has a lot of problems.

His Highness is traveling in disguise?

Manyeondang...

For the time being, put everything aside

and follow Go Sun-dol.

Find out where he goes, what he does,

and who he meets.

Do not miss him for a second.

Do you understand?

Yes, My Lord.

Beeswax is quite valuable,

but you can buy it
at the market pretty easily.

He could get niter from the Weapons Bureau.

But what about the sulfur?

We'll find out
once we question the merchants.

I'll try to find out

who bought the three items
around the same time.

How long will it take?

I'll figure it out in five days.

Be careful. Do not get hurt.

Yes, Your Highness.

You'll need it.

You lost three nyangs, didn't you?

I will be rooting for the w*r Department today.

I bet three nyangs on your team.

Right.

When I heard you were playing,

I bet on the Crown Prince's guards.

I am very quick on my feet.

Then...

But I'll take this

since refusing would be rude.

I like money.

You came such a long way.

I should give you some allowance
for your travel, my nephew.

This is about showing
the power of our family.

Of course I'll travel as far as I have to.

What did you say?

The Confucian scholars did what?

Your Majesty,
we're here to give you a piece of advice.

Long ago, thunder and lightning

were considered omens of the sky.

Please see to the revelation

and try to understand what the sky wants

and stop the disaster.

The lightning bolt that
struck the plum tree

is obviously the sky punishing us.

So we are begging you
to respond to the will of the Heaven

and fulfill the late King's duties.

Long ago, a benevolent king...

Seongju Magistrate Cho Du-won.

Yangju Magistrate Cho Won-young.

Jeolla Commander in Chief Kim Hyeong-woon.

Half of them are from the Cho family

and the other half are the in-laws
or cousins of the Cho family.

They're all related!

All this came

from that great Cho family.

Fine.

How shall I repent my sins

for my virtue to reach the sky?

Lightning bolts are a sign that

God is angry at us.

His anger has reached
the plum tree in the palace,

so of course
there's a reason why it happened.

-How strange.
-Watch your mouth.

During the reign of the late king,

sometimes there were thunder
and lightning without reason.

And even if God is angry at us,

how could you blame His Majesty?

This country is overflowing
with corrupt officials who don't know shame.

If God is punishing this country,

he must be punishing them.

Your Majesty.

Please show compassion for the people
who are trembling in fear

after the terrible disaster.

Please show compassion for the people.

By doing gamseon...

GAMSEON:
REDUCING THE NUMBER OF SIDE DISHES

Why you...

Please show self-restraint
in front of God,

Your Majesty.

Gamseon...

Lord Cho!
What you're doing is blasphemous.

How dare a subject ask His Majesty

to do gamseon!

Your Majesty, this is nonsense.

Do not listen to them.

If I do gamseon...

If I do that,

will I be able to repent for
my lack of discretion

and calm those people outside?

-Your Majesty.
-Your Majesty

Your Majesty.

Gamseon?

And it was Uncle
who made the suggestion?

Yes, Your Highness.

They are so vulgar, aren't they?

It's not new that they're trying
to control His Majesty

by using the power of their family.

His Majesty will accept
the gamseon in the end.

No one can beat them.

It's good. It has a clean taste.

His Majesty wasn't the only one

who has been enjoying the delicacies.

Understood?

-Bottoms up.
-Cheers.

Gosh, you truly are amazing.

We were almost fired after
what happened at Byeokcheon,

but you are the one who turned that
into an opportunity to

strengthen our power.

Won-bo.

I will always look up to you.

Not this one?

I will always trust you.

You give it to him.

He's eating it.

Won-bo.

Tell Cho Won-bo that

I have repented

after eating this meal with five side dishes.

The power His Majesty is wielding

was given by me and my family.

I was just letting him know that
he should never forget it,

so please don't worry, Your Highness.

I heard he overturned
the royal table in rage.

The royal table shows what is going on

in the eight providences.

He shouldn't be ignoring
the efforts of his people.

I'm sure His Majesty learned his lesson.

You must not mess with the Cho family.

It would be best

if you keep that in mind, Your Majesty.

Excuse me.

Where's the Weapons Bureau?

-Turn right at the corner.
-Thank you.

I'm here under the orders
of the Crown Prince.

Did anyone take niter from here recently?

Wait here.

You're sure it's him?

Yes.

I'll take this ledger to His Highness.

Why would he?

Thanks to you,

my mother's back pain has gotten better.

My mother wants to treat you to a meal,
so please come visit us.

I'm afraid your mother's back pain
might come back,

so please tell her
she doesn't have to cook for me.

Thank you.

Any other suggestions?

Eunuch Go.

What brings you here?

Nothing. It's nothing.

It can't be nothing.

Are you under His Highness' orders?

No.

I left the palace for personal reasons
and saw you while I was passing by.

Yes. I was passing by.

Take care, Section Chief Han.

His Highness will be so heartbroken

when he sees this ledger.

Did you look into who bought sulfur?

We went to every apothecary
to find who outbought the sulfur.

Did you ask around the marketplace?

It's in progress.

There are a lot of merchants
who sell beeswax in Hanyang.

But if we find someone
who bought sulfur and niter,

we won't have to ask around anymore.

Isn't that right?

He was a big spender.
He paid me good money

and took all the beeswax I had.

May I take this ledger?

But which department are you from?

Oh, I had no idea you were here
under His Highness' orders.

By all means, take it.

-Goodbye then.
-Bye.

Gosh.

Oh no. It's a mess.

Are you okay? I'm sorry.
I had a lot on my mind.

You should watch where you're going.

It will take forever

to tack these up again.

Forget it. You can just go.

I'm sorry.

When will I stack all this?

Gosh.

Who did you say?

The one who bought beeswax, niter
and sulfur at the same time is...

It's true.

I got the ledger from all three places.

Let me see. I must check for myself.

Beeswax, niter, and sulfur.

So it wasn't the lightning bolt
that set the plum tree on fire.

It was him?

What are the soldiers doing here?

Do not leave a single person out.

Mother.

Mother.

What do you think you're doing?

I am under His Majesty's orders.

His Majesty's orders?

Do you even know who I am?

Sinner Han Jung-eon. Come on out
and receive His Majesty's orders.

-Father.
-His Majesty has ordered that Han Jung-eon

is to be taken to
the Royal Inspector's Office

for mocking and insulting
the royal family.

What are you doing? Arrest him.

Yes, sir.

Mocking and insulting the royal family?

Explain what's going on right now!

Get out of the way.

Stop!

I'll explain.

Your Highness, what are you...

What brings you here?

Nothing. It's nothing.

Was he spying on me?

You want to know
why your father is under arrest?

As you know, when the shaman talked
about the curse,

the plum tree in the palace was

struck by lightning

as if the curse was coming true.

Plum tree is "Lee" in Chinese characters,

so it shows that the shaman's curse is

the will of God.

But that wasn't the truth.

The burning plum tree wasn't

God's doing, but a human's.

He used niter and sulfer

to blow up the tree
as if it was stuck by lightning

and coated it with beeswax
so the fire won't go out.

It burned for so long that it was strange.

Don't you think that's very creative,

Lord Han?

I heard a servant of yours bought

beeswax as per your orders.

Is that true?

No, Your Highness.
It was under my orders.

I needed the beeswax for something else.
My father has nothing to do with this.

But I heard Lord Han was the one
who took niter from the Weapons Bureau.

Yes, Your Highness.

And you also went to the apothecary

to buy sulfur.

Yes, Your Highness.

You bought niter and sulfur which are
used to make gunpowder

for personal reasons?

Surprisingly, everything you bought

was used

in an incident

that threatened
and curse the royal family.

What do you think, Lord Han?

No one would do that unless they plan
to commit treason against the royal family.

-My Lady.
-My Lady.

No, Father.

How can you even say that word?

There is no greater sin than treason.

Treason is never accepted
by heaven and earth

and is never forgiven by the descendants.

The one who leads
the treason will be ex*cuted

and this family will either become sl*ves

or be exiled.

It's only right that
his whole family is wiped out.

You must know that

that is the law, Section Chief Han.

Your Highness,
please give me time to reinvestigate.

I will prove my father's innocence.

Is His Majesty's orders
different from what I said?

No, Your Highness.

Stop.

Open the shed.

Pardon? Why?

I will show you that
Lord Han

and Section Chief Han is innocent.

What an outstanding candle
made of high-quality beeswax.

You needed the beeswax
to make these candles

and a wedding is a village feast.

I guess you were planning to throw
a big party for your son.

Fire pouches for the firework festival.

That's where the sulfur was used.

Then there's only one thing left.

Lord Han, where's the niter?

Special Capital Magistrate Min

asked me to get niter

to repair the roof tiles.

He was very fond of the pavilion
his ancestors used to cherish,

so he used to take good care of it

when the roof was damaged
due to heavy rain.

That's why he needed the niter.

I was going to send it with Seong-on

when he was supposed to visit
Special Capital Magistrate Min.

But due to his death,

it never found its owner.

Did you hear all that?

Does this prove their innocence?

Yes, Your Highness.

Now tell me.

Who

sent you?

Your Majesty, I sent the soldiers
of the Royal Inspector's Office

as per your orders
to Lord Han's house.

You must punish them
according to the law.

Tell the person who sent you
what you saw today.

I will let His Majesty know that
Lord Han is innocent.

Yes, Your Highness.

Let's go.

Your Highness.

I thought you didn't trust me anymore.

A wise young man once told me,
"Mu-shin-bul-lip."

Without trust, we cannot stand.

If you must abandon something,

the first thing you should abandon

is the soldiers, then the food,

but trust is something
you must never let go of.

I'll be able to protect
the country that way.

Protecting my country
and protecting my people are no different.

Is it Go Sun-dol

who said that?

He also said "Bul-sil-gi-chin."

A great future King

should never lose those close to him.

If I didn't want to lose you,

I had to trust you.

You must've contemplated a lot

about why we would've needed

niter, beeswax, and sulfur

to believe me and my family.

There was a ledger for sure.

When did this get swapped?

Gosh. Oh no. It's a mess.

I ran into a merchant on my way out.

He must've swapped the ledgers.

Someone was following me.

Who do you think took it?

Lord Han's enemy
and the King's father-in-law, Cho Won-bo.

If he really was the one
who swapped the ledgers,

he must know what they mean.

And if he knows what they mean,
he must've already taken measures.

He's not the one to miss an opportunity.

And he never hesitates
when there is prey in front of him.

-Lord Han and Seong-on are in danger.
-Then you believe that

Lord Han is innocent?

If Lord Han
and Section Chief Han are innocent,

they must've needed

beeswax, niter and sulfur
for something else.

I wonder why they needed all that
at the same time.

Your Highness,
if you open the shed...

We'll be able to know

why they needed them.

-But what if when we open the shed...
-And we don't find what we're looking for?

It will be the same
as ending his political career

and his family will be destroyed.

Then Cho Won-bo and his family

would have gotten rid of their enemy
and have more power than ever.

Your Highness.

Do you really not trust them enough

to open the shed?

Just like you said before,

if I didn't get that ghost's letter...

Your best friend will
stab you in the back...

When I became the Crown Prince,
I decided to let go of all my friendships.

If I didn't get that ghost's letter...

I would've opened that shed

with the trust

of my old friend Seong-on.

I will open that shed.

I will trust

Lord Han and Seong-on.

Will you

be my friend again?

Your Highness.

There wasn't a single moment

when I wasn't your friend.

I don't know what's wrong with me.

I can't stop crying.

It's a miracle.

Two people meeting, trusting
and depending on each other.

Yes.

That is a miracle.

I'm planning to make
that miracle every day.

I will have a friend,
I will trust in that friend

and I will protect him.

SPECIAL THANKS TO YOON SEOK-HYUN

OUR BLOOMING YOUTH

Will you be my friend too?

His Highness, the future king,

is someone who can't even
keep his private and public life separate.

Using the misfortune of
the royal family...

-Why are you looking at me like that?
-Bring him to me alive.

I will do as your ordered, Your Majesty.

All the cases are pointing to Byeokcheon.

Enter.

The Crown Prince can't be
involved in political affairs.

I hear you're from Byeokcheon.
