(This drama is fictional and
all characters, organizations,)

(and events are unrelated
to historical events.)

If you don't want to talk about it,

why don't we come up
with our own hand signals?

Like this one.

What is that?

This means whatever I'm saying is a lie.

What do you think? It's not that hard.

A king never lies.

(Episode 15)

What kind of sin could
such a young child commit?

I smell liquor and something else.

She didn't drink poison.

I cannot believe she was forced to
drink poison with such small hands.

Her hands are warm. She's still alive.

Please get up.

Dam Hyang!

Your Highness.

- Sir.
- You are here.

Sir.

Here you go.

We must not leave such
a young child in the mountains.

I would only feel comfortable
if I held a funeral for her.

- Goodbye, then.
- Goodbye.

How's Dam Hyang. Is she okay?

She should have left
the Palace safely by now.

I pardoned her mother,
who was a government slave,

and made the preparations
so she could leave Hanyang with her.

She's meeting her mom.

She was so worried about her
as she only had four fingernails.

Thank goodness. This is great.

How did you do it?
Did you use a sleeping pill?

I had her drink mafeisan.

Mafeisan is what the noted doctor
Hua Tuo used for surgeries, right?

You have heard of him.

Of course. I've read
"Three Kingdoms for Kids" so many times.

"Three Kingdoms for Kids"?

You. You should've told me
about your plan beforehand.

It was an urgent situation,

and it was dangerous
for many people to know.

Did you hear from Special Director Hong?

Yes. He made sure that
the child escaped safely.

Good job.

It was reckless to
put yourself in such danger...

over a court maid.

She was not just a court maid.

If I gave up on this child,

it would become easier to give up on...

10, 100, and then all of my people.

I thought Cheoljong was just a fool,

but he was an incredibly stupid fool.

Don't spend too much time
thinking about great things.

You won't live long.

My goal is not to live
an embarrassing life.

Those are perfect values
to have an early death.

This is all your...

This is how she is thanking me.

The language that the Queen
uses is different from others.

That "Queen Dictionary" is useless.

It's filled with liberal
and mistranslations.

- Did you see it?
- You left it open, so I could see.

But was the position of queen
always this dangerous?

Why is everyone
so determined to kill me?

I will prevent this from
happening ever again.

No. I will take care of it my way.

The best defense is a good offense.

As of today, I'm the crazy one
in this palace.

(Episode 15, The Crazy X in This Place)

Did you try to get rid of the Queen?

The Queen is on the King's side.

She gave our family's embarrassments
and weaknesses to the King.

She has fallen for the King and
turned her back on her family.

That is not true.

I am sure you do not want to believe...

that the Queen, whom you adore so much,

is nothing but a foolish woman...

who flounders about
after falling for a man.

After I came into this family,

I did whatever you wanted
so that you would accept me.

It was not just so that I
could remain in this household.

I wanted to become like you...

and respect you.

However, the moment
you tried to hurt the Queen,

you are no longer my father.

If anyone tries to harm the Queen,

I will be sure to slit their throats.

You can come back home
whenever you want.

Even if you do not
consider me to be your father,

you will always be my son.

Who would've hidden
the ledger in Daejojeon Hall?

The prime suspects...

are the two people who have
a grudge against me for no reason.

Queen Dowager Jo and Jo Hwa Jin.

If you consider motive,
the culprit is Jo Hwa Jin.

Considering how she acted during
the hunting game on Surit-nal, I'm sure.

However, Jo Hwa Jin didn't
come near Daejojeon Hall recently.

If you consider movement,
Queen Dowager Jo is the culprit.

Here.

It's suspicious how she comes here
so often these days.

Of course, Queen Dowager Jo
also has a clear motive.

Is it the Queen Dowager?

That little raccoon.

Then how did the Queen Dowager
get her hands on the ledger?

That's the mystery.

But more than that,
what kind of ledger is it?

I did not have an exorcism today.

I apologize for
my rude behavior previously.

I am sure you would not
bow your head for no reason.

What is the reason?

As I had expected,

you are quick to read the situation.

Thank you for joining me in
this uncomfortable gathering.

I am sure you came to
realize from today's events,

It is the time for the nobility to live,

not our families.

We are intimately interdependent.

(Literally says "without lips, teeth
are cold" and means they're close.)

If 1 of the 2 family ends up in ruins,

the other family will have
a hard time staying afloat.

That is why I would like to
suggest a decree of amnesty...

as a promise of harmony
between our two families.

(Granting amnesty for certain
criminals for their crimes)

A decree of amnesty?

Many wasted talents lost
their government posts...

due to a momentary mistake
in both of our families.

That is why we should make a decree
of amnesty to pardon those people.

In other words,
it is a symbol of our promise,

and a congratulatory gift.

What do you think?

Would you like to join me in this goal?

The Ministry of War tried to
play dirty tricks to fulfill his greed,

and I am also guilty for
being unable to subdue him.

As a result, I, Kim Jwa Geun,

request to step down from my post
as Training Commander.

Things will not be over for me.

As long as I am breathing.

Eat slowly.

Do you have enough side dishes?

If I had any sense of shame,
I would not be able to eat.

Why on earth did you run away?

I believe I treated you well until now.

The thing is...

Mother?

Mother.

Goodness.

You have been through
so much, Dam Hyang.

You have been through
so much, Dam Hyang.

It is okay.

It will all be okay.

We must try to smile around her.

Her Highness must not...

stay sad for a long time.

Yes, ma'am.

Your Highness.
It is time for you to wake up.

Your Highness.

Were you unable to
get any sleep last night?

I am worried that you may
put a strain on your body.

I have a lot on my mind,
so I couldn't get any sleep.

By the way, they probably
slept just fine, right?

Who?

The people who tried to mess me up.

That will be the last night
they sleep without trouble.

I hope they had a good night's sleep.

- Court Lady Choi.
- Yes.

Send someone to my father...

and ask him to come to the palace now.

Yes, Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Your father is here.

Already?

I was just about to request
your attendance at the palace.

But you were already on your way.

Yes.

It seems to me I made
the right decision to come.

- The other day...
- The other day...

You can go first.

No. You can go first.

No. You can go first, Father.

- I am sorry about the other day.
- I am sorry about the other day.

- No. I should apologize first.
- No. I must apologize first.

- I should.
- No, I should.

- Gosh.
- I should.

Gosh. Blood is thicker than water.

Right.

Well, I asked to see you here today...

because of the ledger.

- Did you know about this?
- Everyone is going crazy over it.

What is the ledger for?

The ledger has records of
our clan's illegal activities.

A weakness of the Andong Kim clan.

That's why Cheoljong wanted
to get his hands on that.

I actually came here today,
so I could talk about the ledger.

After you and the King stayed at
my house, the ledger disappeared.

So I have been suspecting
the King all this time.

But a while ago,

a trusted and cherished
slave of mine ran away.

Luckily, I caught him and
asked why he ran away.

The day before the ledger went missing,

he let in Royal Noble Consort Eui.

When things were chaotic at home,

he thought he must have
caused trouble and ran away. So...

I am sorry, Your Highness.

It is not your fault.

Now,

I have completed the puzzle.

Pardon?

Sunwon was the architect
behind my assassination.

I have specially prepared...

ice which is more precious
than gold today.

The Queen Dowager indirectly bullied me.

I will serve you my food some time...

I must eat it now.

And Jo Hwa Jin is the one
who provided the ammunition.

You should come clean to the King.

You are threatening me.

I heard you...

loud and clear.

Father, I have someplace
to be right now.

Where?

To open the door to the fiery pit.

I'll make you regret
for messing with me.

She used to be as docile as a sika deer.

She has become ferocious
over a short period of time here.

I know that parents cannot
be impartial to their children.

But a sika deer?

If I were to compare her to an animal,

she would be a wild horse.

My daughter is a wild horse?

The tattoo of the Maori people.

The feather from a peacock.

And the devil wearing Prada.

Strength is beauty.

Today, I'll be wearing
the most beautiful armor.

What do you think?

Good.

Revenge is sweet
when served with fireworks.

What is this?

What you see is not everything.

To find out what is inside,

I must cut it in half.

I thought it was just
a potato like it seemed.

You completely deceived me.

One should not throw away trust
and cut it without a good reason.

One should make sure
what it is before cutting it.

Because once it is done,
one cannot take it back.

I will serve the drinks now.

I prepared brunch today...

because I wanted to return
the favor for preparing...

such a lovely brunch the other day.

The cool drink from the last
brunch was truly amazing...

that I would not have noticed anything
even if someone was dead.

Please try it.

I am not thirsty.

I put a lot of effort into it.
Please at least have a sip.

I said I did not want to.

I went through an ordeal
to prepare for that.

If you do not want to drink it...

Ice is better when you bite it.

A while back, I told you that...

I'd help you to stay healthy
and young for the rest of your life.

And I will continue to do that.

If you start suspecting food, drinks
and anything that goes on your body,

life will be nothing but misery.

Now that the regency had ended,

you must think you can
do whatever you want.

Do you think...

you can still be the Queen
without your clan?

Your Highness.

I don't rely on my clan or my husband.

I'm doing whatever I want
because I know what I can.

Oh, right. Head Eunuch.

Yes, Your Majesty.

I have been neglecting my duty...

to produce an heir.

How could I be so neglectful
of my duty as the King?

So go and report to her now.

Report to her?

I do not understand, Your Majesty.

You know you always report to her.

How dare you?

You have given me no choice
but to punish you!

Your Majesty, I am sorry.

- Punish me with death.
- What is wrong?

I was not speaking to you.

You hold the power of my life now.

I do not want that.

What will I do with that?

Please punish me with death,
Your Majesty.

My goodness.
I do not wish to have such power.

Head Eunuch,
I know that you have no choice.

You must follow your orders.

I would rather have you get angry at me.

This is scarier.

How can you be a spy
when you are scared so easily?

I have somewhere to go
before the royal conference.

Go to Injeongjeon Hall.

My goodness,
can you read it somewhere else?

Head Eunuch is in shock right now.

I hope you had a peaceful night.

Is that how you greet your elder?

The hairpieces are heavy.

So I cannot bow my head.

This is a sacred place where
ancestral rites are performed.

It is not polite to wear
such extravagant garments.

You have to preen yourself
before asking for a refund.

Oh, I'm so forgetful.

I forgot to offer incense
to the late King.

I can't believe I disgraced
Chunghak-dong School of Etiquette.

Stop it.

I'm extremely faithful to Confucianism.

I can't stand not performing the ritual.

I told you to not touch it.

You left something in my room.

You came unannounced
and invaded my privacy.

In the end, it was that.

What are you doing?

I told you. A refund.

I should return the nonsense
I had to go through.

What kind of rudeness is this?

Slandering your elder carelessly...

and complaining so hard.

You have always been like that,

but your attitude is
even more insolent today.

Is it because you grew up
without a mother?

You mother-in-law.

If I'm rude because I
grew up without a mother,

are you rude because
you lived without your child?

It's hot.

I'm so mad that
I can't stand how hot it is.

The portrait of your precious son...

almost burnt.

You lost your mind.

Yes, I lost it big time.

I think I'm the best among all
the girls who lost their minds.

So watch out.

If you touch even a strand of my hair,

you will never see
your son's face again.

It is not the Queen I
should have worried about.

It was other people.

"The best defense is a good offense."

Oh, my. I didn't see you were here.

I can't believe how weak
your presence is.

I'm trying to skip a stone.
Would you like to join me?

Do it by yourself.

The ledger.

You took it.

Thanks to the ledger, I almost died.

Tell me.

Is that what you wanted?

Did you really not kill Oh Wol?

No matter what I say,
you believe what you want to believe.

I have to take the King away from you,

kill Oh Wol and put her in the well.

Because it will make me
a bad girl who deserves to die...

and make you a kind and poor victim.

This is why victim playing is scary.

Because you're slowly turning
into a monster every day,

without even realizing it.

Look at the mirror.

And see how ugly you are.

Hold it yourself to come up.

I don't feel like being
too kind right now.

When I fell into the lake
in front of you,

you perhaps...

could hold me.

This proves...

that I'm a better person than you.

Kim Jwa Geun,
the former Training Commander,

resigned.

Yes, Your Majesty.

The impeachment process was delayed,

so you all could have
taken responsibility for that.

It is a pity.

Oh, it was slip of the tongue.

I wanted to say it is fortunate.

The next agenda is...

Today, there is something
I want to declare to you before that.

I will make an office to remove the
indictment of the Three Tax System.

Its name is Samjung Ijungchung.

Samjung Ijungchung?

It will establish legislation...

and develop detailed plans to
solve the fundamental issues...

to remedy the problems
of the Three Tax System.

Joseon depends on agriculture.

The country can prosper
only when its farmers prosper.

Government officials'
exploitation against farmers...

is an act to threaten the
foundation of the country,

hence it will be punished
as high treason.

A careful examination is
required to make a new office.

You should hear
our opinions first before...

I accept no compromise
to do the right thing.

It means your opinions...

do not matter any longer.

Also, I will give
the late King Sunjong...

the posthumous name of Sunjo
according to the rules.

The King is more aggressive
than usual today.

Your Majesty.

There is a new appointment today.

Chief Royal Secretary also
makes a slip of the tongue.

It should be an appointment proposal.

The position of Minister of War
is vacant now.

A weak military equates
to a crisis of the empire.

Therefore, I urge you to
appoint the Minister of War...

through the Border Defense Council now.

Come in Minister of War.

Kim Byeong In,
the Minister of War, wishes to...

offer his greetings.

Kim Byeong In can be a threat
as he has the Jo clan's support.

Both clans...

have petitioned for amnesties because...

That must be his doing as well.

I doubt we can ignore this many appeals.

This might give the upper class
an excuse for an uprising.

Now that you have full control,

you can do whatever you want.

But it is still hard to stop them
from going against you.

The best defense is a good offense.

Now, it is a matter of...

hitting the target faster
than our opponent.

We do not have time
to recruit more people.

I want you to oversee Ijungchung.

Special Director Hong,
I will officially dispatch you...

to visit the three cities
in the South...

as people are distressed there
and launch an investigation.

Another business trip?

Do this for me.

The more time passes by,
you two stay here and give orders.

I feel like I am doing all the
heavy lifting by myself. Am I wrong?

No, you are not alone. I always...

Once you are done
with this investigation,

- I could give you a few days off.
- I will get ready for my trip.

"I could."

I said I could.

I doubt that he heard that.

That fool.

Your Majesty.

You have a letter, Your Majesty.

I will not harm you. Come closer.

The Queen has sent
a letter to Your Majesty.

Are you sick?

You are so fragile.

Revenge is something else.
I thought I would be elated.

It was exhilarating.

What a thrill.

His Majesty is...

You're here.

You seem especially
more beautiful today.

That suits you well.

Everything looks good
with a pretty face.

So anything looks good on me.

Who knew I would make a great queen?

I can never get used to that.

I asked to see you,

so we can form an alliance.

My clan probably left me,
thinking I am on your side.

So I've got nothing to lose.

If you are on my side,

your clan will become your enemy.

The clan ditched me first.

So I'll ditch my clan now.

If we have the same enemy,
doesn't that make us allies?

Yes.

Starting now, the no-touching rule
does not apply between us.

Sure. No more no-touching rule.

In martial arts movies,

I saw they drip their blood
in a cup and drink it together.

But I can't do something
like that as it's unsanitary.

Let's drink tea and
celebrate our alliance.

It will be nice and simple.

What...

Is this what allies do?

Yes. This is how it's done.

- Bottoms up.
- What...

Now that we're allies,
let's clear the air.

Why did you try to kill me?

Right.

It is a topic we must
discuss at some point.

We thought you heard our conversation...

about assassinating your father.

He is still your father-in-law.

To me, he was one of
the corrupted officials.

You are so harsh.

I get it. You even tried
to kill your own wife.

You're a serial killer of the Kims.

I am sorry.

I know that my apology
does not mean much now,

but there were many
misunderstandings and situations.

Okay.

Then, you owe me one.

I won't forgive you until
you pay me back somehow.

So what are you trying to achieve?

Strengthening the sovereign authority?

That is only a tool to
fix our broken empire.

I do not think the root
of the world can change.

So to be honest, I like your tool,
rather than your goal.

If the sovereign authority is
strengthened, I'll be strong too.

Then, no one can come after me.

I am well aware of the fear
that comes from a death threat.

I know you are acting tough,
but you must be scared.

I'm not sure.

Is it because I died once?

I hate being trampled
on more than dying.

If I can chew out all those people
trying to trample on me,

I will die with a smile.

Your Highness.

It is time to prepare lunch.

Okay. On that note,

I'll go do that.

I will die with a smile.

"Die with a smile".

- Lord Kim.
- Hey. Byeong In.

I mean, Minister of War.

- Are you teasing me?
- Gosh, no.

Please call me by my name.

Actually, I was waiting for you...

because I wanted to talk
about the Queen with you.

As it so happens, I had something
to tell you about her as well.

Where did I put it?

Where did I put it?

- Hold on.
- I saw it.

You!

How dare you use the knife?
You have not been here long enough.

Things are different now.

Chef these days never want to drink
some makgeolli after work.

They always say no. My goodness.

I said it would be my treat.
I do not know why they say no.

Goodness.

I do not understand
the court maids these days.

I told them to come late,
and they really came late.

They should have been there
before their scheduled time.

- Kids these days.
- Kids these days.

This is for Tongmyeongjeon Hall.

Darn it.

I had one more revenge left.

A recipe for revenge?

I should do exactly
what he did to me, right?

A tooth for a tooth. An eye for an eye.

A loss of manhood for a loss of manhood.

Then, brackens?

- Adlay?
- Brackens and adlay.

This recipe has a lot
of healthy ingredients.

It will take forever to
achieve my goal with food.

That's too long of a plan.

Let's go big.

- Castration.
- Castration?

I have never heard...

Oh, I see.

It is such a precious ingredient.

I am not here to burden you.

I am a man who knows when to give up.

I apologize.

You do not need to.

May I ask you a question
for the last time?

- Yes.
- Why do you...

dislike a man who has ambition?

While living in the Palace,
I have seen many ambitious people...

and their difficult ends.

I do not like...

and am afraid of such things.

Thank you for answering my question.

If I could dare expect
something from you,

it is that your bright smile...

will remain forever.

Oh, it is you.

It must be over.

Your intuition is as sharp as a sickle.

You are so quick-witted.

How could I not know
when you are crying like this?

Do not look at me.

I do not want anyone
to see me like this.

Then go over there and cry on your own.

People might think that I made you cry.

It was not me.

I will not cry anymore.

Being able to end my feelings
cleanly is a part of love.

It may be harder than
continuing to love her.

You have become quite the poet.

Let us go. Stop crying.

She insisted on sending me a meal?

What is with this ominous drawing?

Goodness, it is so pretty.

Court Lady Chun. You would
survive even after consuming poison...

because you are so slow-witted.

Why are you complimenting me
all of a sudden?

Your Highness.

I, Shim Ong of the Han clan,
am here to say hello.

Have we not met before?

I am much obliged.

No, I mean... Please forgive me.

I believe you should be
saying something else to me.

For example,

"Punish me with death, Your Highness".

I lost all the popcorn I worked
so hard to make because of you.

I lost it all because it went flying.

I had no idea you were the Queen,

and I committed such a huge crime.

You had no idea it was me?

Then why did you run away?

That is because...

such a noble person
was running after me,

so I was surprised.

I did not have any other reasons.

Is that so?

To be honest, I called you here...

to give you a government post.

It is a good position. You don't
need to worry about getting fired,

and the pay is good too.

Of course, you end up
losing something else.

Pardon?

Did you just say I would lose something?

When I saw you,
despite it being a brief meeting,

your physiognomy is
perfect for this position.

I am much obliged, Your Highness.

You...

should become my eunuch.

What?

Hold on. Wait a second.

Let go of me, you eunuchs.

Your Highness.

I beg your kindness.

Thank you for your boundless generosity.

Why are you doing this to me?

First,

you bought a fake family register
and pretended to be a noble.

No. This isn't your fault.

The social structure that
divides classes is to blame.

That is correct.

Let's go again. First,

you put poisonous herbs in
the water of the Royal Kitchen...

and ruined the King's banquet.

Second,

your descendant is a bad person.

"My descendant"?

Are you sure you did not
mix it up with my ancestors?

No.

I'm certain.

Your descendant is a bad person.

My descendant?

Your Highness.

If I become a eunuch,
I will not have any descendants.

If I become a eunuch, I will not
have any descendants. Your Highness!

I will not have any descendants.

Hey, do you have any descendants?
You do not, right?

I will not be able to
have any descendants!

My gosh. Your Highness!

Your Highness,
the Ministry of War is here.

Your Highness,

The Andong Kim clan.

I'm certain they're all in cahoots.

But my father is also a part
of the Andong Kim clan.

What? I just naturally
called him "my father".

The transfer of emotions is serious.

I figured out what had happened
to you after I met you yesterday.

I had no idea you went
through such a big ordeal.

You had no idea...

that they tried to kill me?

I am not on my father's side,
nor am I a part of the Kim clan.

However, you aren't free
from either of them.

You will find out eventually.

Is he an enemy or an ally?

How dare he do that to So Yong?

Even still, how could
he do that to the Queen?

Kim Jwa Geun, that jerk.

I ought to...

Furthermore, it's Samjung Ijungchung.

They're using the corruption
of the leaders as an excuse...

to try to bring down our family.

Do not worry.

If they try to find a problem
with it by calling it exploitation,

then nobody is innocent.

In order to protect themselves,

they will all try to
protect the leaders,

so all that will be left of
Samjung Ijungchung is its shell.

Even if you join them temporarily,

do not even blink in front
of Queen Dowager Jo.

She may smile in front of you,

but she is always ready
to stab you in the back.

I will keep that in mind.

Court Lady Chun.

Yes, Your Highness.

Clear the table and call in Nurse Park.

Yes, Your Highness.

Are you already done eating?

I don't have much of an appetite.

I heard that you were quite satisfied...

with the meals that
the Queen prepared for you.

It was not that great.

It was just edible.

The Queen is very heartbroken.

She said that Royal Noble
Consort Eui came between you,

and she was mistaken to believe
that our family turned our backs on her.

She is blaming herself.

Royal Noble Consort Eui?

I heard it from the
Queen's father today.

The person that deceived you
was not the Queen.

It was Royal Noble Consort Eui.

The King is here.

Tell him to come in.

Your Majesty.

I apologize for coming at such
a late hour without any notice.

It is okay.

It is an honor regardless
of when you come.

I came to tell you something.

What is it?

It is about the body of the court
made found in the well recently.

The Queen Dowager
hired someone to do that.

Queen Dowager did it?

Why would she...

Can you not think of the reason either?

If so, the body is...

It must not be Oh Wol's.

It is impossible.
It was definitely Oh Wol.

I heard it was difficult to identify
due to the condition of the body.

Why were you sure that it was Oh Wol?

She was wearing
a garment for court maid,

and Oh Wol was the only court maid
who had disappeared.

She knew that you
would think she is Oh Wol.

What the Queen Dowager wants...

is you relying on her.

But why did it have
to be the well of all?

I told her what I had
gone through in the well.

The well is a place where I met you.

But it is also a place that hurt me.

It reminded me of you,

so I was sure I lost
the person I cherished.

Now I realize I cannot carelessly
reveal my wound to others...

in the palace.

Drag the Queen down to
the nightmare I am living in.

You should never trust the
Queen Dowager from now on.

We should hide that we know it,

so do not let her know
that you know what she did.

I am also deeply disappointed
and feel betrayed by her.

The well is a place...

that instills fear in me.

I cannot believe she used it.

It's similar to poker and hwatu.

Gabbling and gaming...

are surely the best ways
to waste your time and life.

I am glad to hear that.

We were worried you might have
a hard time because of Dam Hyang.

Please forgive me.

Don't worry. Dam Hyang
went to a good place.

Right? She must have
gone to a good place, right?

Dam Hyang.

I mean... A really good place.

Yes, Your Highness.

Dam Hyang...

I said she really went to a good place.

Why are you crying?

My apologies.

Come to think of it,

I couldn't even say farewell to her.

Dam Hyang.

- Dam Hyang.
- Your Highness.

Dam Hyang.

Seven.

Eight.

This is...

called nine.

Please forgive me.

Darn it.

- Dam Hyang.
- Dam Hyang.

All in.

How did Queen Dowager get the ledger?

The ledger we tried
so hard to find but failed.

At this point, would it not be
the right choice to recruit her?

It is a joke.

Hearing she is better than me who
can freely roam outside the palace,

I am disappointed in myself.

Queen Dowager mostly
stays at Seonwonjeon Hall.

I cannot understand
how she got the ledger.

The fact that she faked the corpse...

means she has people working for her.

Should we recruit them then?

Is the composite of the one with
a goblin mask not available yet?

I have been too busy
with work these days.

Freeing Dam Hyang's mother
from slavery...

and finding her missing father.

You could not find
her father though, did you?

How can I find a person
who is hiding in the mountains?

He must have become a bandit.

Thinking about the holiday...

after the business trip
as a royal investigator,

I am barely enduring it these days.

Hey, what I meant was the holiday...

Can you appoint me...

as a secret inspector,
not a royal investigator.

That is cooler.

After hiding my identity,
I will show them the tablet, like this!

You are a born secret inspector.
Do it as you want.

One more time.

I didn't think Great Lord Yeongeun
was that kind of person.

Kim Jwa Geun is the one
who deserves to die.

Great Lord Yeongeun is...

my only family.

Hey, are you sleeping
after trying to kill...

your father-in-law and wife?

Oh, you're not.

Calm down, my heart.

It hurts my pride.

She was in the water for a long time.

How suffocating and
painful must it have been?

Finding her body in the well is
either an awful coincidence...

or someone is trying to come between us.

I was too deep in my thoughts.

You must have been deeply shocked.

The palace is too big for me.

Not only it makes you lonely,
but it also makes you lost.

I found the court maid who sold
the norigae you had given to Oh Wol.

She said she only found
the norigae buried at the palace.

Is that so?

She is the very court maid who
put the dead body in the well...

by Queen Dowager's order.

Oh Wol is alive.

She was attacked in the palace.

She could not even step foot
outside the palace.

Do you not have to wish...

the dead body found
in the well is not Oh Wol?

Do you not have to be happy...

that there is a possibility that
it is not Oh Wol's dead body?

Why do you believe
that the corpse is Oh Wol?

What on earth...

What on earth are you hiding?

Last time,

what did you hand over...

to the Queen Dowager?

Did you see it?

I...

can see nothing without your permission.

Anyone can be lost sometimes.

You still have a chance
to get back on track.

What if I am not lost just for a moment?

Can I still...

get back on track?

I cannot go back.

Your Highness.

The dead body has to be Oh Wol.

Why are you making samhyang ramyeon...

in the middle of the night?

Why do you crave ramyeon
especially at night?

You know it will make
your face puffy the next morning.

Yet it's so hard to
fight the temptation.

You worked hard but it is a shame
that there is not a chance.

Grand Queen Dowager does not eat...

late at night.

So instead of her, let me...

No.

You should have told me that you came.

Why did you just stand
there knocking on the door?

Do you want to have
ramyeon before you go?

What is ramyeon?
And where do you want me to go?

No pressure.
It's just a kind of research.

Or a test.

No. I shouldn't do this.

But if it's just a bite...

No, no.

Ramyeon has such an addictive taste.

Once you start eating it,
you can't stop.

What are you doing?

An inner conflict.

What would you do if it were you?

Do you think you're going
to eat ramyeon or not?

I think I will explain
what ramyeon is first.

- First,
- First?

I will try it.

Right?

You know how it is
only after you try it.

If it's just a one-time thing
as I was drunk,

or if I have really gone mad,

or if this is...

real.

Are we speaking the
same language right now?

Sure.

We're talking about the ramyeon.

Come closer.
Ramyeon is the best when it's hot.

(Dongmongseonseup)

What are you doing with this?

Oh, my!

What should I do?
This is such a precious book.

What do you think this is
that you said it is precious?

Why is Dongmongseonseup precious to you?

It's...

Was it you?

The person who saved me. Was it you?

Did you save me from the well?

Yes.

It was me.

(Mr. Queen)

My Cheoljong will be
desperately waiting for me to come.

Did you dig a trap?

I cannot believe the fight
the Queen declared was real.

- Is it my turn?
- Draw your sword.

If someone did not clean up
after himself and leaves a trace,

he will have to take responsibility
for everything.

Even though I removed the Kim clan,

Kim Byeong In is becoming more powerful.

I feel like there is no progress.

If Cheoljong makes it, the world
200 years later will change as well.

As long as I'm on your side,
you will win.

I have a secret weapon.

I know the future.
