Princess!

Does it torment you

know the deaths that your family caused 30 years ago?

You hate your parents so much that you offer your body to a spirit?

Your mother came to see me.

She begged me to save her daughter.

He also told me about your father.

A simple servant he could not disobey an order.

Noble consort Sukbin Choi he forced him.

Your father saved your mother marrying him.

Don't hate your parents so much!

Don't let the spirit of the crown prince use that hate!

Princess!

Princess!

princess

These flowers are from saeng-gang, the ginger?

Yes, exact.

There are many in my town.

I told his majesty about it

and he chose it like your childhood name.

Do you miss your village, mother?

no

I don't have any good memories.

My father died young and my mother was always sick.

It's a wonderful idea.

- Go! - Yes, your majesty.

Where are you going, highness?

sir

We have to stop the bleeding.

It's been a while.

Luckily the prince's spirit he ran away when you woke up.

I've been a fool.

I let the spirit

use my body to cross the barrier.

Let's go see the doctor.

before,

where is my mother

I want to see her

I have to tell him that I will free him from his grudge

so he can ascend without worries.

This will not be possible.

- Yes it is. - No.

A gwi-mae has taken his soul.

what

- What do you want...? - Your mother's soul has disappeared.

Go with the Saeng-gang! don't worry about me

Protect the Saeng-gang. Protect my daughter!

I'm sorry

Last night the princess came.

The eunuchs told me

who was behaving strangely.

It's nothing.

You don't need to worry.

By the way, I have to leave the palace.

- Because the prince's soul ascends... - No need.

You don't have to send it to the afterlife. destroy it

Do you understand what it implies?

destroy a soul?

This is the same.

In any case, you can't leave.

- If necessary, the princess will come out. - No.

I'll tell him to stay out of it.

It's too dangerous.

You said it was nothing.

Or that to the princess has any happened

And…

you too

I summoned the princess because he feels the spirits.

It may be useful to you.

Don't part with it.

I told you the princess is in danger.

It doesn't belong to you worry about their safety.

Or you forgot your low rank and have you dared to lay eyes on it?

no way

I want to get her out of the way

because it makes me sad

The closer it gets to the truth about the spirit,

more secrets of the royal family discover

And it's getting harder and harder for him to bear it.

How are you still here?

In case they possess you again.

say

How did you get your sight back?

They are the eyes of a gwi-mae.

From a gwi-mae?

And what will happen to you?

Don't worry about it. Keep this safe.

Don't lose it.

don't worry neither for the spirit of the prince.

Now that I have regained my sight, I will deal with the spirits alone.

- Why...? - Because you are a nuisance.

The spirit of the prince i could own you again

Clean up your mess it gets on my nerves

Gu-cheon.

Is it because of my mother?

If that's why...

don't worry

He disappeared trying to save me,

so don't blame yourself.

It's not your fault.

- Do you hear me? - Yes, it's my fault.

Once…

a gwi-mae wanted my yin energy and I let him devour a soul.

You should stay away from me.

You never know what can happen with a cursed man like me.

I won't lose again

nobody because of me

Did you take all these amulets with you?

what a lot

you can leave

- Yes. - Yes.

where did you go last night

come here

come

come on beautiful

You must be my beloved granddaughter again.

together,

we will keep the secret of 30 years ago

and we will protect our family.

Someone has already started to notice.

height

The Dowager Queen requires your presence urgently.

His Majesty the King has arrived.

you can sit down

You have summoned the entire royal family.

What did you want to talk to me about? with such urgency?

I don't have time for tea.

I want to know

why 30 years ago only you survived

while the other sons of the late king they died prematurely.

That I survived

has it been bothering you all this time mom?

I ask you how you escaped of the curse of the pond spirit.

I took refuge in the temple of an exorcist monk.

- You already knew that, didn't you? - No!

It wasn't necessary.

The spirit of the pond never existed.

The deaths of the princes they were not the work of the spirit of the pond.

They clearly were

poisoned by human hands.

Bring it!

Prince Inha fell ill as soon as he entered the palace.

And they found an object in his room.

The box of sweets he ate.

And there is another one.

The one the princess gave me.

His mother died after eating the contents of a box like this.

This shows that the princes they did not die at the hands of the spirit,

rather they poisoned them.

What do you think, your majesty?

Are you implying…

that I killed my own brothers?

when everyone dies the culprit is the sole survivor.

I speak of your majesty,

that he would not have been able to ascend to the throne in no other way.

Can you bear the weight…

of what you just said, majesty?

What do you think you are doing?

majesty

God they were poisoned. We will check it soon.

already

- Chief Eunuch Kim. - Yes, your majesty.

Take Prince Inha out of the palace.

That they take him out of the palace?

I want to check something.

Stop!

majesty

Prince Inha has woken up just leave the palace.

what

And he asked that we send you a message.

which one what did he say

That a spirit attacked him.

He has told him that he would eradicate the royal line.

It can't be.

It's obvious they poisoned him.

Poison?

How can you claim such nonsense?

Insinuate that I have killed my children with my own hands?

They are all dead at the hands of the spirit of the pond.

I'm talking about the favorite lady of the court whom you killed.

no

I doubted because you were not well,

but now I have no alternative.

You murdered her while she was pregnant and you cut off the royal line.

You even dared to call me, the king of this nation, of murderer!

I will not tolerate it anymore!

Leave the palace.

immediately

Like dogs!

I already know the truth!

It was all yours! I know everything!

I know everything!

I know it all, wretch!

No, you are wrong.

it was you

You were the one who started it

this tragedy

it's you

who dragged me into this hell.

It's all your fault.

It's time you accepted it.

It is the price…

of your wickedness,

mother

I will never leave.

This palace is mine!

I will not leave even dead!

i will never leave

This palace is mine!

- Your Majesty, are you okay? - It's mine!

majesty

Father!

let's withdraw

Have you used the prince's spirit?

You have welcomed Prince Inha knowing what would happen to him.

How could you…?

That maybe you've lost your mind?

Also, who are you today?

Are you really the princess?

Don't show up in front of me while the spirit is there.

I can't trust you.

I can't trust you either, father.

Why did they die? your two first born dad?

Like the third,

did you poison them too?

The consequences of this crime

they will fall on you

very well

I will be waiting for you.

I must kill the king.

The king…

I must kill the king.

you can enter

You say the plague is coming to the capital?

Forgive me, your majesty.

The doors are barred

and people are forbidden to enter and exit.

That all medical institutions

find a way to stop the plague and keep me informed.

That the royal treasury release grain stored in…

majesty

majesty

The plague has overtaken you.

- I will send for the royal doctor. - No.

Gu-cheon.

Bring the Gu-cheon.

in a hurry

majesty

- Majesty - Majesty

- Majesty - Majesty

Majesty!

take a good look at me

what do you see

It differs from spirits that I usually see in the palace.

- I see people complaining. - Sir

- Help us. - Their bodies are full of spots.

- A girl of Prince Yeongan's age… - Lord, help us.

…holds onto your sleeve.

It's the people you killed

to the village of the plague, majesty.

You hint that their resentment has it led them to me?

Won-gwi are simple.

Their resentment would have taken them to the soldiers who killed them.

But they are close to you, that you gave the order.

As if someone had guided them here.

Then whoever took them to the palace must be...

The spirit of the prince.

Well, go and fix it.

What will you do with them?

If you do nothing, you will be at risk.

A ritual of appeasement.

Tomorrow night I will hold a ritual

to drive out the spirits of plague.

Kick them out?

It won't work. This ritual serves to soothe sorrowing souls.

- He will not be able to expel them. - You focus on the prince's spirit.

The date we agreed upon is approaching.

what do you do

I'm…

shouting

who?

Gu-cheon.

It's nothing.

explain it to me

You've gotten worse how long have you had gwi-mae's eyes?

This is the same. what are you doing here

I told you I'll deal with the spirit alone.

Do you have to behave like this?

My mother's soul did not disappear not because of you, but because of me.

I know you act like that because you care about me

what happened

and what will happen

it's my responsibility

not yours

The spirit could not reach the king.

Now attract the spirits of the plague town.

I will attract them all.

The Spirit of the Crown Prince

will try to kill the king.

It will attract them…

I won't even be able to protect the soul of your mother.

I can't allow may your father also die.

I should make you go away of palace immediately,

but now i can't

You are the only one I can trust.

We wait until dawn.

This way I will recover yang energy.

I will share my yang energy with you.

I will find out what he means do with the spirits

In the meantime, help me buy some time.

Write the sutra of protection,

spread chicken blood on it and hang it in the king's chamber.

Thus, the crown prince it will not be easily accessible.

We must protect the king until the appeasement ritual.

what do you do

Let no one enter from now on.

I asked you what you do.

- What are you doing here? - I don't come willingly.

But I was told to protect you until the appeasement ritual.

So it's a Gu-cheon thing.

I must tell you something, Your Majesty.

what's up

there is something but it is no plague spirit.

majesty

behind you

You must know one thing about the prince.

stop

Please listen to me, your majesty.

- Talk about the crown prince. - Please...

no Don't listen to him.

- Listen to me. - What else are you trying to hide?

- Leave immediately. Wow! - No.

- Explain it to me. You can't help it anymore. - Enough, Saeng-gang!

I must hear the declaration of the spirit.

- Please... - I have to know.

Don't come any closer. Don't listen to him.

Don't try to discover anything else!

Go!

- Leave now! - Papa!

who is it

Did you kill him too, dad?

yes

Why?

I wanted to…

I wanted to explain…

what the prince had done.

wow

This palace has always been

an interesting place

Oh yes?

Are you implying

than the crown prince did you hear the spirits too?

tell me

how i became king

- The sons of the late king died... - How did they die?

Tell me how they died.

They say it's because of a curse.

tell me the truth

I don't understand what you want...

In my maternal lineage,

some children have a cursed gift that passes from generation to generation.

You are one of them.

Because you feel the spirits, it must be a while you know

that the spirit of the pond is not real.

And that it wasn't a spirit who killed the princes…

but a person

Father!

Even so,

my two first born are dead.

Although the spirit of the pond never existed

They coughed up black blood like my brothers

You…

you must have heard the secret from 30 years ago

and you have recreated it.

Did you think he would spare your life?

Really?

have you poisoned the tea?

How is it possible that a father

kill your son with your own hands?

You shouldn't get to king and rule the people.

- You can't be king. - Why not?

That's how you became king. Why?

Why can't I?

With a king who killed his brothers

that's enough

you too

you will have died by the curse of the spirit.

Yes, as you wish.

Since you are the spirit of the pond,

it is appropriate let a spirit kill me too.

I will die…

and I will become the real one spirit of the pond for you.

Father!

As the curse said 30 years ago now…

I will eradicate the royal line.

If I can't be the king...

father

father

Father!

…you can't be the king either, dad.

May peace and prosperity fill this house!

with the heart we offer our solemn prayers.

Highness, Crown Prince, guardian deity of this palace!

Accept this humble offer

and expel the spirits of the palace plague!

Does it devour human souls like a gwi-mae?

Stop!

Majesty!

Your majesty...

is he dead

father

Father!

Gu-cheon!
