Just... whose memories are these?

Whose memories are these?

Die down.

Please die down.

Please reduce the swelling.

Please, quickly reduce the swelling.

Since I yearn for him so much, now I see hallucinations.

Do I look like an apparition to you?

Why are you always avoiding me?

My face... looks terrible...

It does not look terrible.

You are lying.

You just laughed.

I laughed because you're pretty.

am i pretty?

Have you ever seen me lie?

Then you're not going to abandon me?

How could you say such a thing?

Then promise me...

that no matter what happens, you will not abandon me.

If I say that, I'll put my life on the line.

Will you believe me if I do?

Pri...Princess!

The innkeeper made some pancakes...

So while I was away to eat a few...

I think she went to look for Seol Unni.

What about me?

Where were you instead of protecting the child?

What are you running around for?

Haven't I told you countless times that

you must not go to the North Village!

What? Did something happen to Agassi?

There is something, look here.

Someone asked me to pass this letter to you.

Since you refuse to come,

I will take your spiritual daughter instead.

If you want to find your spiritual daughter, then you will need to enter the palace.

What's wrong?

What exactly happened?

Hurry and pack your belongings.

We need to go to the capital city.

Are we moving again?

What about Agassi?

Stop babbling and quickly pack your belongings!

Quickly!

Bad news, my Lord!

It looks like she's dead.

She's still alive.

Quickly get some water, quick.

Yes.

Both your nostrils are bleeding!

Catch her quickly!

Catch her quickly!

Stop right there!

Catch her! Quickly!

Stop right there!

Quickly! Quickly catch her!

Stop!

Stop right there!

Prince Yang Myeong Gun.

Prince Yang Myeong Gun.

Prince Yang Myeong Gun.

They sure are tenacious.

My Lord!

Prince Yang Myeong.

My Lord.

Please, just give us some of your time.

We are not bad people.

Where in the world did he go?

What are you doing? Go and find him!

You are too quick...

Prince Yang Myeong Gun.

Prince Yang Myeong Gun.

How did he know?

He is Prince Yang Myeong.

My Lord!

My Lord!

Great Master!!

I'm being chased.

Please help me!

Great Master!

Over there!

What are you doing?

Go and catch her!

What exactly are you doing? You are being disrespectful.

Do you not recognize me?

Do you really not know who I am?

What a beautiful sight.

In broad daylight, a shaman girl and a monk are sticking close together.

What are they doing?

Step aside.

Anyone who dares to lay a finger on this woman

will face death.

Aigoo, do you know where this is?

What is this fake monk mumbling about?

Monks and shamans are prohibited from entering and leaving the capital city.

Are you really a shaman?

That's right.

Do you really not recognize me?

I'm sorry, but this is the first time I saw you.

If you leave through the back gate and follow the road,

after awhile you'll see a greenhouse.

Will you wait for me there?

Will you?

I will wait for you.

Stop right there!

It seems like the professors have caught the shaman.

Let's go.

Leave.

What? She refuses to return to the palace?

T..Th..that is right.

And you clearly told her that I'm requesting her return?

Of course I told her.

She really is ungrateful to ignore my friendship and goodwill.

So, you came back empty-handed?

Although I was not able to change Head Shaman Jang's mind,

I brought Shaman Jang's spiritual daughter instead.

How can that girl ever replace Shaman Jang?

If we capture the child, then we can lure Shaman Jang here.

Then, is she a hostage?

Not only that,

Not only that,

Forgive me if I offend you, but have you heard of a living talisman?

A living talisman?

That's right.

It's when a living person turns into a talisman,

and uses oneself to stop the misfortunes and deaths of others.

As far as I know, there is no talisman that is stronger or more effective.

If we can use the shaman girl as a talisman and send her into His Majesty's chambers...

But...

how can we allow a lowly shaman to enter the palace?

Furthermore,

his Majesty would never allow it.

All this...

will be done after His Majesty has fallen asleep

and will be executed in secret.

That girl's powers

are unreliable.

Her face and His Majesty's

are flawless complements of each other.

One month.

Pardon?

The auspicious day for His Majesty to consummate his marriage

happens in one month's time.

If she can help His Majesty regain his strength...

then the matter of consummating the marriage is also solved.

An amulet to absorb evil, you say...

Are you Nok Young's apprentice?

Who are you?

You should know what is your task tonight.

I was dragged here without an explanation.

So how would I know?

Of course.

What is the point of knowing?

All you need to do is obey your orders.

Are you outside?

Yes, Shaman.

Take her away and proceed with the preparations.

- Yes. - Yes.

Let go of me!

Please allow me to see the head shaman.

Without the head shaman's permission, I won't...

You insolent girl.

Do you think you're a daughter of a noble family?

Remember,

if

you dare make a sound,

or move a finger,

your life will be on the line.

She vanished?

That's right.

Just as I thought.

She really was a ghost then.

If she was a ghost, then she is probably a wandering soul with an unresolved grudge.

I was thinking of listening to her pitiful story,

and resolving her grudge.

She didn't even give me a chance to be a proper monarch.

I will look for her again.

No.

There is no need for that.

In the end it was only a scene from a dream, it was just my an illusion.

It is better this way.

From now on we won't ever meet again

and we will not create any more hate.

Your Highness, the palace physician is here.

Enter

What kind of tea is this?

It is chrysanthemum tea prepared by the royal physician,

Seeds of a jujube and thuja orientalis have been added which help with your sleeping.

It is a medicinal tea meant to bring you a restful sleep.

What's the reason for using medication to put me to sleep?

The Office of Physiognomy is in charge of that, so I'm not sure why.

The Physician is just in charge of putting Your Majesty to sleep.

Recently, Your Majesty has had difficulty falling asleep.

There is no reason for you to refuse it.

A tea that gives you deep sleep.

My status is that of a lowly female shaman.

There is no way I would have previously met you, Your Majesty.

Then,

Perhaps I won't be snared by fanciful dreams again.

When the bell that brings in energy is sounded,

the officer from the Office of Physiogomy will bring in the talisman.

Who dares to cover their face with a cloak within the palace wall?

She is not a person but a talisman only.

Then please let it pass.

If the energy is broken,

the power of the talisman can disappear.

~ The light that is fading in the clouds ~

~ the wandering rain falls outside my window. ~

~ The cooling memory is just like the sound of the rainwater ~

~ Capture my heart, refuse to leave ~ Yeon U... Yeon U...

~ Sunk in the longing that gets heavier as the time passes ~

~ Can I travel back to that time? ~

~ If you hug me ~

~ like when you did before ~

~ then I will be better ~

Yeon U...

Yeon U...

Your Majesty.

~ I follow the wet and rainy road ~

~ and look back at our memories ~

~ The blurry rain... reminds me of you ~

~ and you fill up in my tears ~

~ Sunk in the longing that gets heavier as the time passes ~

~ Can I travel back to that time? ~

~ Even if just this once, ~

~ even if its the last, ~

~ then I will be better. ~

My Lord!

Lord Yang Myung!

My Lord!

Are you awake?

You were lying outside the entrance. It was the physician who brought you in.

Do you remember?

My Lord! Lord Yang Myung.

My Lord! My Lord!

Did someone come by my side lastnight?

From the Office of Physiogonomy, the Professor of Prophecy

came in for a while to write a talisman charm.

Did you sleep well last night?

A charm talisman?

This is truly amazing.

Spells can be very annoying.

But my body feels much lighter.

Are you the chef's palace?

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

The soup on my eating table this morning was very delicious.

I ate well.

His Majesty was always cold-hearted,

Why is His Majesty like this today?

Let's give His Majesty soup tomorrow too.

If I can see that smile again,

then I'm going to give him soup everyday.

While I was lying in my chamber,

I read the reports that you all handed in.

You probably did not have a lot of time but,

it was prepared quite well.

These petitions did not have a single trace of error.

Someone might think it's forged, or even fabricated.

I'm just joking.

Regarding the issue of heads of households,

whose famillies are having a hard time surviving from these circumstances

being exempt from corvee, it eliminates the liturgical and repatriation heroic measures.

How did it go?

Through the project leader's assistance,

we have obtained a list of the names.

For now, we have returned them to their household.

They have all returned to the countryside.

What about Pi Han Dol that I asked you to find?

He is waiting outside.

Oh, really?

I thought our Ministry of Finance was only good at golf,

but you are quick to act too.

Bring in Pi Han Dol.

Are you Pi Han Dol?

Yes, Your Majesty.

You must have had a hard time.

Was the work not difficult?

Compared to other laborious work,

it was quite easy to handle.

That's a relief.

What were you in charge of during the construction of the buildings and villages?

Yes?

I was responsible for building bridges.

Oh really?

Then I presume that you saw the lotus flower pattern on the bridge, correct?

Lot...Lotus Flower...

I remember it.

How was it? Isn't it beautiful?

That's right.

It was very very beautiful.

Yes, it really is beautiful pattern.

The reason I looked for you,

was because of your son's request.

Yes?

Is Your Majesty talking about my son?

Correct!

It was admirable seeing how he stepped in as a parent to care for his younger sister.

A very well-behaved son.

Even a child knows how to make the effort to protect his family.

What have I recently done for my people?

I will reflect on this deeply.

I am grateful.

I will grant you a small piece of land to farn.

Go back home, and live a peaceful life with your children.

I am humbled by your grace, Your Majesty.

As promised, you followed the instructions very well.

This money is yours.

If you tell anyone about this matter,

The first step will be to kill your children.

Remember that.

Yes.

Why are you doing this?

That person called Pi Han Dol, has he been sent back safely?

Yes.

I've already prepared a good place so that it will be a safe and sound return to the countryside.

You've worked hard.

How did Your Majesty know?

About what?

How did you know that you needed to send me?

That person's hand.

The callus on that person's hand didn't happen because of labor.

That type of callus can often be seen on a person that first starts practicing swordplay.

That's why I threw out a bait.

I didn't expect he would be this stupid and take the bait in one bite.

What bait did you use?

A lotus flower design.

The Bridge to the buildings does not have a lotus pattern.

Therefore, what did you gain?

Questions.

You asked a question?

Yes. A question.

Why did he talk about how beautiful the lotus design was when it doesn't even exist?

Why did they send assassins to kill that naive man?

And through his death,

what are they trying to hide?

Then, did you get your answer?

I sure did.

Pretending to be a corvee, they gathered all the strong and able men.

Using the story of a fake construction plan, they collected funds.

and instead of building the Buyeong Palace, they are secretly...

Holding military practices.

Does that make sense?

I think it fits perfectly.

If that is true,

then that would be high treason.

I know.

My life is also threatened.

Your Majesty.

No need to worry.

It's not time for me to die yet.

Until they get what they want from me,

I'll remain alive...

Although his Highness had a fever,

We were able to put out the fire.

But we don't know when he will be attacked again.

A (Son) heir is an urgent matter.

We've put in so much effort yet there is no outcome.

If we don't think of some other options then...

There are many other options out there.

First of all, we should stick talismans that are good for fertility at the king and queen's quarters. .

And tell the queen to learn the art of seduction.

Why do you always do this to me?

We should do that to create a heir. Even if it was for just the first birth.

We should let him rest for awhile.

His Majesty has worked excessively on national affairs these days.

So wherever or whenever he faints due to that,

It won't look suspicious, right?

That's right.

But that is something...

To think about after there is an heir to succeed His Majesty.

Pi Han Dol,

Did you get rid of Pi Han Dol without any problems?

Of course.

What happened?

Sn.. sneak attack!

Who attacked you?

His face was covered by a mask,

so I could not tell who it was.

But all I can say is that seemed like a ghost's sword.

Ghost sword?

Woon's sword!

Was he really that skilled?

Is this a warning, your Majesty?

Yes?

Has His Majesty recovered so much that he could attend to the politics in the side palace hall?

That's right.

Even the breakfast too.

His Majesty tasted all the dishes once.

The meals that were retreated were less than before. -= to retreat meals : The leftover food by the King =-

Seems like it's indeed effective to have a shaman talisman!

I'm sure of it.

In just one night she can make His Majesty's body recover,

She is really amazing!

I'm personally want to meet the girl and reward her.

Yeon U...

Misty rain...

Does it mean soft rain?

Yeon U...

What kind of person

was able to shake him?

If I were that person...

If I were not a shaman...

If I was Yeon U,

would he be comforted?

Your Highness!

How dare you be so preposterous?

How dare you block my way!

Are you not going to get out of my way?

She's a shaman who has just dispelled evil with her body.

How can you personally come and visit here?

Why are you all just standing there?

Quickly get her...

Great Queen Dowager.

I was planning to visit the Queen Dowager's palace to pay my respects.

Why did you personally come here?

It's really difficult.

You ignored my request when I called you back to the palace.

So what brings you here now?

It is a misunderstanding, Your Highness.

How could I forget Your Highness' kindness and

disobey Your Highness' command?

It is because it took a long time to clean my polluted body and expel the bad luck.

Thus, I was unable to come and greet Your Highness.

I wanted to greet you after cleansing all the bad luck away from my body, so I asked them to wait awhile longer.

Looks like the astronomical observatory professors have distorted my intentions.

Please understand me.

I'm happy to hear that.

You came because you were afraid that we would take away your spiritual daughter.

That girl, before being my spiritual daughter,

She was a shaman whom you personally allowed to be registered in Celestial Hall shaman registry.

If she were to be taken away, how could I dare to argue?

So, during this time, why did you hide her?

Please speak and tell me.

8 years ago,

My spiritual powers were damaged because of an incantation that took someone's life.

After that day I was afraid that I would be a hindrance to you, Great Dowager Queen.

So I have been observing the universe's movements, waiting for the fortunate time.

You were waiting for the right time.

So you are saying that this is the right time?

Exactly.

Great Dowager Queen, you will see great fortune soon.

Then I will be able to see an heir?

Absolutely.

But no heir will come from the present Queen's body.

So you will not leave the Celestial Hall again, right?

As long as Your Highness is willing to take me in, I will stay in the Celestial Hall until the day I die.

But...

But what?

One vessel doesn't need two boatmen

There is only an eavesdropper who's worried about herself .

Her heart has no loyalty towards the royal family, please order her expulsion.

She is very brave to do that.

Hear that?

The Celestial Hall's leader has returned. So, move out immediately.

Are you satisfied now?

Thank you, Your Highness.

Now, bring your spiritual daughter.

Why do you want to see that child?

Since she became the talisman,

His Majesty's health has greatly improved.

I want to reward her. Quickly, tell her to come.

You don't need to do that.

Why not?

She is a talisman who spent the whole night receiving bad energy.

If you were to meet her before she has to cleansed herself of the bad energy,

the bad energy may be transferred to you.

Furthermore, if the talisman was allowed to roam freely, it would reduce its effectiveness.

Until His Majesty's health has improved and until the marriage has been consummated,

we have to be very cautious.

Please, just until her task is finished.

Don't meet her.

Are you really not hurt?

Seol, I'm starting to get dizzy.

That is why we asked you to simply not go outside.

Agassi, you're not a 7-years old girl anymore.

Why don't you listen?

If I wasn't looking for you, this would have never happened.

I'm sorry. This is all my fault.

Why are you like this? I'm just joking. Just joking.

I am sorry.

Sorry, eonni.

It's all because I went to eat that fried cake.

Jan Sil, I'm all right.

Seol and Jan Sil...

Okay, okay. We'll go out. Both of you can talk.

Oh my, is the Head Shaman's spiritual daughter?

No wonder she held her nose up in the air.

But it seems like she has some pretty good spiritual powers.

Seeing as Great Dowager Queen came all the way here.

If that's because of her spiritual powers or her backing,

Who knows?

What bad luck! How could a newbie enter the king's quarters?

You wrench!

Don't you know how much trouble a loose tongue can cause?

You all know very well who she is, and yet you dare to utter such foul words?

That person is actually the mo...

Our agassi's name is Wol. Wol as in the moon.

This child still does not understand Chinese characters well.

Anyway, please take care of our agassi.

Why are you doing this, Head Shaman?

Leave this place immediately!

What? Don't tell me you didn't know that disobeying the royal family's order is a crime?

I will think of a way to resolve it.

You and Seol must escape immediately!

I cannot do that.

I cannot allow everyone to become criminals because of me.

Then, do you want to continue to do this?

It's only for one month.

I only need to stay by his side for a month.

This doesn't seem like your style, Godmother. Why are you creating such a big hassle out of this?

I will be alright. It's not a bad thing to be doing.

Even though my powers are weak, but if my presence can help that person

or lessen that person's pain by a little...

It looks like you did not listen to my warning.

Pardon?

I told you to hide.

I asked you not to form any emotional attachments or connections.

Head Shaman.

A female shaman who dispels evil

is not a human being, but only a talisman.

She has eyes, but she cannot see anything.

She has a mouth, but she cannot speak a word.

To sneak in after his sleep and disappear without a trace once he is awake...

To be right next to him but unable meet...

That is... the fate of a shaman talisman.

Even so, do you still want to do it?

Tell me!

Even so, do you still want to do it?

Aren't female shamans

supposed to relieve other people's pain?

How can we choose to help either the noble or the lowly?

Even if I have eyes, I will not see.

Even if I have mouth, I will not speak.

I will make sure my presence will not be discovered.

I know what the Head Shaman fears...

That person is the one above all people.

I am only a lowly shaman girl.

The thing that you are worried about will never happen.

Mother! Mother!

Ah yes, Princess Min Hwa.

What are you thinking so deeply about?

It's nothing, but why...?

Mother, please take a look at this.

This is...what insect is this?

It is not an insect,

but a crane.

Crane... so it's a crane.

I wanted to embroider a pair of flying cranes.

I do not know why...but I have embroidered a couple of quail instead.

It seems that I'm still lacking.

I initially wanted to personally embroider the crest on my husband's official clothes. -= crest: In Joseon era, the King, Royal Crown Prince, civil and military officials had clan symbols decorated on the chest and back of their official clothes.=-

Oh no, I'm only making a small joke.

It obviously... looks like a crane.

- Only... - Only what?

The legs need a little more embroidering.

Open both wings to raise their majestic air.

Then they'll become even more majestic cranes.

Then, will they really become the elegant cranes that match my husband?

Of course.

If you feel that it is difficult, how about letting me help you?

That's not necessary. This is a gift for my husband so I must embroider it with my own hands.

Then, if you encounter any difficulties, do not hesitate to find me.

I will always help you.

Yes, Mother.

Why are you here?

Hus...husband.

Did I scare you?

No, husband.

You didn't scare me.

But why are you here?

Orabeoni is...

You're too much.

What's wrong with you? What have I done this time?

Why do you always ask me what I am doing here?

'I miss you'... can't you even say this to me?

I am sorry. I didn't think about that.

If you are sorry,

then...

please give me a hug.

Pardon?

Tonight. Can you come to my room?

Yang... Isn't Prince Yang Myeong here?

Orabeoni is not around, so what does it matter...

Don't mind me. Please continue.

I... didn't see anything at all.

Orabeoni, you are really...!

I really hate you!

But, where have you been? Why don't you rest a bit?

Now it's time for the third party to disappear.

Everyday, I have to tolerate her tantrums.

I really can't stay here any longer.

How can you leave when you're still not well yet?

You've nagged me long enough.

I will take my leave now.

Both of you may continue.

My Lord!

Don't go, Orabeoni.

What is it?

Don't tell me you are using me as an excuse to come here everyday!

Where are you going with your injuries like this?

If you just leave like that,

my husband will worry.

Wait till you are healed and then leave.

In the time that you are here,

I give you my word that I'll not enter the inner chamber.

I am a sick person.

Can't you treat me gently? Gently!

Your Majesty.

It's the time of "hai" (9-11pm).

Before the tea that was brought by the pharmacy turns cold,

please drink it while it's hot.

This is my unique way of taking care of my heath,

there's no need for you to bother.

If anything is unwell with Your Majesty's health...

Right now, I'm at my healthiest.

This sturdiness, makes me feel strange too.

The ancients said that too fari is as bad as not enough.

It has already been 1/2 an hour.

The energy that has finally returned,

if it dissipates again, then...

You talk too much.

Covered in blood is due to very disturbed internal organs.

If I practice this kind of exercise,

the vital energy

Gets vigorous.

I am now healthier than anyone.

Only like that,

can a broad ambition be achieved.

Ambition?

Could it be...

Pregnant?

An heir.

Why are you looking at me like that?

It'll surely be achieved.

You'll definitely,

achieve your ambition.

Your Majesty and Jung Jeon will definitely bred an heir that

looks the same as you both.

What nonsense are you spouting?!

Hyeong Seon, you

can't you be a bit more understanding?

You only know how to think of vulgar things.

This is why I'm not willing to talk to you these days.

I don't wish to see you! Turn over there!

Are you crying?

You wouldn't be crying now, are you?

Did I do something that has wronged you?

It's not like that.

It's just that...

I feel that I'm seeing His Majesty in his younger days again.

I'm begging you...

You must always,

be like now

and stay healthy, Your Majesty.

Really...

You have a way of making me listen to you.

I will follow your intentions, Hyeong Seon.

Let's prepare to go to bed now.

Don't cry anymore.

Why is the chrysanthemum tea so hot?

Cold water... Quickly! Towel. Towel.

Turn around.

Are you well today?

Your Majesty's complexion is better than yesterday's.

That's a relief.

Please do not frown.

Your Majesty.

A smile suits you better.

Just ask directly when you meet.

To Miss Yeon U,

my presence

is of no significance.

My first reason is that I don't want to lose you.

The second reason is that I...

I like Teacher Heo's sister.

I really like her.

When the two are together,

they really look like a painting.

Do you think the rumours are really true?

Rumour?

What rumours?

That His Majesty doesn't sleep with the Queen

because of Un?

Well, even for me,

if there was such a handsome person by my side,

how would other people be visible in my eyes?

Rotten girl.

Let's go.

That's a smile,

that I have never seen before.

Your Highness!

Where are you going?

I am going to see His Majesty.

No, you mustn't Your Highness.

How dare you! Let go of my hands right now!

How long do you want me to wait?

I can't wait any longer.

I want to personally go and look for His Majesty.

What is the matter, Court Lady Jo?

How can you be so rash?

In the palace, the walls have eyes and ears.

I have already warned you to be cautious and careful of your actions.

I have been having nightmares lately.

If it's because of the nightmares

that cause you to act so rashly,

then what is the difference between you and the ladies at the winery?

His Majesty's health has just gotten better,

with you making a fuss at the King's Quarters,

if his health worsens,

how are you going to clean up the mess?

You need to restrain yourself and then restrain yourself more.

Before you consummate the marriage,

you absolutely must not go near the King's Quarters again.

Do you understand, Queen?

I will keep that in mind.

So many years have passed,

And you still are unable to capture a man's heart.

If you had given birth to an heir,

then things wouldn't have been so troublesome.

Please ask Mother to pay a visit to the palace.

I want to see Mother.

I haven't seen you wearing these clothes for a long time.

I just finished watching the martial arts exhibition of the new staff at the Propaganda Hall.

Do you like it?

Even though your body has already started to recover,

it's still better to rest.

Please don't set your schedule too tightly.

Even if the schedule is tight, and worse comes to worst, I will just lie sick on my bed.

Moreover, to you it might not be such a bad thing.

What are you saying?

Ah, I forgot to thank you.

Last time when I went to the residence at Onyang,

the gift that you sent to the temporary residence,

I've received it.

Thanks to you, my whole body has perspired

and exercised well.

It has already been said that it will have great effects if it's placed in the water,

so I prepared some ginseng.

Now that I hear that you liked them,

it is really fortunate.

Ginseng?

You said ginseng?

Well yes, both characters have the word "human" .

Both have the effect of increasing internal body heat. It's not a big difference.

No matter what, thank you.

I'm fortunate to be able to do something for Your Majesty.

I will certainly prepare it well so that it can be offered to Your Majesty again.

I will look forward to it.

Your Majesty, what's wrong?

Do you feel unwell somewhere?

Your Majesty, the physician has arrived.

Let him in.

I will certainly prepare it well so that it can be offered to Your Majesty again.

Please let me observe the color for poison.

Are you still brooding over what I said earlier?

Don't worry. Didn't I say that I'm still alright?

Your Majesty. Are you alright?

It just got caught in my throat, there's no need to fuss about it.

The Sirius star is being covered by darkness...

Have you been well today too?

I heard His Majesty's health has recovered a lot.

That is such a relief.

I am not sure if Your Majesty knows,

but this is the first time where I am glad that I am a female shaman.

Because I can be of help to you, Your Majesty. Because I can be by your side and protect you.

If I say it's a relief,

would that be disrespectful?

Who are you?

Quickly! Tell me!

Who exactly are you?
