Father.
- You insolent— - What?
Were you trying to kill me?
My own son! You tried to kill me, your father?!
Are you okay?
Stay low on the ground.
Who's there! Show yourself immediately!
Over there! Catch him!
- Give me back my weapon. - I'll ask you again.
- Who are you? - What do you think you're doing on someone else's property?
Someone else's property? Then are you part of the Minister's household?
I wasn't able to witness something I needed to see because of you. That's your first crime.
I apologize for interfering with your work,
but I'm in a hurry right now.
Please let me go for now, as I have someone I need to chase after!
Someone you're after?
If you tell me who you are, I will come find you myself and receive any punishment afterwards.
- So, please… - So, you committed a crime worthy of death.
What are you doing here?
Have you not seen a man go by? He was wearing black clothing and carrying a bow.
- A bow? - Have you seen him or not?!
Are you saying he was here?
Do you know who he is? Have you seen what he did?!
Oh my, how could this have happened?
Your Majesty, this man says he was there, with a bow and quiver.
At the very place where you were attacked with an arrow.
Wang Rin, were you there at that time too?
I was there.
Did you shoot that arrow?!
I was also there, but I did not shoot that arrow.
Why are you interfering in this, Crown Prince?
You are someone who was also attacked along with His Majesty.
Then are you saying Rin attacked me as well?
My one and only friend?
They say he was hiding in that area.
Wherever and whatever Rin is or does, it was all under my command.
Be careful what you say.
These were brought from the crime scene.
One was in the tree, the other in the horse.
Why did you bring them here?
Did the offender write his name on them?
Continue the investigation.
Go on.
There's a pattern engraved on the arrows.
These arrows are the Crown Prince's.
Hurry and confess everything.
The Crown Prince has said so himself,
that all your words and actions are under the Crown Prince's commands.
Were you hiding there under the Crown Prince's command?
Are you refusing to answer in front of His Majesty?
Although you are my younger brother, I cannot let this slide, Rin.
Rin.
- Yes, Crown Prince. - Did you find him?
Did you find the person who stole these arrows?
I did find someone who seemed suspicious, but lost him during the chase.
Father, I knew some of my arrows were stolen before entering the hunting ground.
So, I commanded Rin to find the one responsible.
I thought someone stole them as a commemoration, due to their affection for me.
But, they were trying to make you suspect me, your son,
and have your loyal subjects suspect one another.
This was something I couldn't even fathom.
- Minister. - Such a horrendous crime
has occurred while I was hosting you.
Despite the efforts made to create a safe environment,
my shortcomings deserve death.
If you die, who will prepare my dinner?
I will continue to hunt.
In return, if another arrow flies at me,
you will have to lay your life.
Your Majesty…
No, your old life would not be sufficient.
Why don't you just become a supporter of a rebellion,
so that your whole household will be charged of this crime?
Your grace is immeasurable.
- Won. - Yes?
I will give you seven days. Find the person who shot these arrows.
Yes, I understand.
Your Majesty, how could you so easily-
What did I do so easily?
At least punish Wang Rin.
He was the only one at the scene of the crime.
At least once in a while, please think before you speak!
Then, are you saying Rin shot an arrow at me and the Crown Prince?
Why?
Oh, so that he could become king after killing us both?
Did you do that? Did you try to kill us both to become king?
- No, Your Majesty. - He says he didn't! Geez.
That was not my intention. Your Majesty!
The Crown Prince was wrong earlier.
This man is not the Crown Prince's friend.
There is no such thing as friends for a king.
A king only has loyal subjects and enemies.
Mother is also wrong.
I am not a king, yet.
I'm pretty sure there's something going on.
Hurry and look thoroughly.
- Did you find it? - I found it.
Spit it into my hand, okay? You better aim right.
One, two, three!
Hurry and spit it out.
I did.
What?
You idiot!
Now!
They weren't too hard to take care of.
How could a bright Crown Prince of a growing country be so foolish?
Are you expressing anger towards me?
"Wherever and whatever Rin is or does, it was all under my command"?
I just saved you.
A thank you bow wouldn't even be enough.
There are countless people trying to pick fault at just about anything to bring you down.
But, you don't know what you shouldn't say or do?
If it weren't for me, you would be considered guilty for attempting to murder the King and wouldn't even be alive.
That's exactly why! Why are you standing up for someone who is being considered guilty of attempting to murder the King?
Did you shoot that arrow?
Look, even you're doubting me.
I'm not saying I doubt you.
My own biological brother is eyeing your seat on the throne, Crown Prince.
- That's your brother. - How can you be so sure I don't feel the same way?
First, your archery skills are not that sloppy.
You shot and missed both times?
Second, although you are not quite comparable to me, the Crown Prince and the brightest prince there ever was,
you are also exceptionally smart. If you really wanted to kill us,
you wouldn't have carried this out so poorly.
You shot the arrow, stuck around like an idiot, and got caught?
Whatever.
I shot it.
What?
I shot the arrow at your horse.
Where did the guards here go?
What did you just say?
We can't seem to find the guards that were guarding this place anywhere.
Answer me— Answer me before you go.
Wait just a moment.
Did you say you shot it?
The escapees are wearing these guards' uniforms.
- Bring all the guards here. Don't miss a single person. - Yes.
- Explain yourself. - These were the men who sold off your arrows.
- Men? - They were the only evidence we had!
- If we lose them… - Explain so that I can understand.
Ah, there's one more person who knows something.
- What the heck? - I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
What the heck?
You.
Who are you with?
I'm a handmaiden of the Minister's household.
A handmaiden carries a weapon?
I'm in a hurry.
- Isn't she suspicious? - Very.
- Let's take her in. - Please, stop!
What are you doing here? Minister has been looking for you!
Did you slap away my hand?
Let's go.
You think you'll be able to find the person just by looking around like this? It'll be faster to ask people.
What do I ask them?
- Are you from the Minister's household? - Yes, my lord.
We're looking for a handmaid in this house.
If you tell me her name, I will call for her immediately.
I don't know her name.
Then, describe how she looks…?
Well, she's about this tall,
and loves to eat and drink.
Her appearance?
She looks… weird.
No matter how I look at her, she looks weird.
Do you not know who she is?
Well…
No one comes to mind?
Here are some change of clothes and some money.
Don't think of coming back for a while once you get to Doota Mountain.
Since I won't be back for a while, I will stay a little longer before leaving.
What for?
We have to catch him! It's been seven years.
After seven years, I finally found the one who killed Mother and did this to Bi Yeon's face.
I thought you didn't get a good look at his face. How are you going to find him?
There is no doubt. He had the same tattoo on his forearm.
And he definitely shot the arrow at His Majesty. That's why-
That guy! And the ones behind him are not just simple thieves after my wealth.
It seems like they're rebels who are trying to take over the country.
That's why we need to catch him!
Should I let the officials know?
Then they may help us.
We will do nothing!
- Father… - We're a merchant household!
Who the king is,
who is coveting the throne…
it doesn't concern us.
We only care about profit.
The same goes for revenge.
If the losses are greater than the gain, then it is right to give up on revenge.
- Even though we found the one who killed Mother? - Forget it.
- I cannot accept this. - You will come to accept this!
You are a merchant's daughter!
There is no need to delay. Take her when morning comes.
Yes, sir.
Susagong's second son
seems to be eyeing the Crown Prince's seat.
They say the number of soldiers they are secretly training are growing.
He will be desperate for your wealth and resources.
He will need money to buy off the officials as well.
Are you planning on marrying Bi Yeon to him, in place of our miss?
It's dangerous.
There is a snake-like person next to the Susagong's second son.
He will figure out Bi Yeon's true nature in no time.
Cry out loud if you're going to cry.
Who says I'm crying?
You will get a headache if you keep trying to hold your tears in.
I'm not crying!
Then tell me one thing before you leave.
- What? - Wang Jeon…
was he as handsome as the rumors say?
Is his personality as good as he is good-looking?
Why? To marry him? I thought you didn't want to.
I will marry him if he's a horrible person.
- What do you mean? - If he's that great of a person, you should marry him.
I don't think you can be a merchant's daughter.
What will you benefit from that?
I heard the Susagong's family is the highest ranking among the royal family, second only to the King's.
Then you won't have to live in the mountains like a wild animal.
Well, I don't necessarily live like a wild animal.
Anyway, what kind of person is Wang Jeon? Did you even get to see him?
Not well, due to some person's interference.
Who?
There is this person. Someone who likes to keep giving things.
Mae Hwa (Japanese apricot flower), Nan Cho (orchid)…
Ah, what was it?
It was definitely a flower name.
I definitely heard the teacher say her name.
Mo Ran (peony), Gook Hwa (chrysanthemum)… Ah…
You also heard him say her name. Do you remember at least one part of her name?
What are you doing?
He says he's drawing a composite.
Who is this?
That girl.
The same girl we know?
Yes. A handmaid of the Minister's household, and the student of the Eye of the Dragon School.
The girl whose name we don't know.
Can't you tell from this drawing?
Take this and look for her. Start with the area around the Minister's house.
There will definitely be someone who recognizes her.
Ah… okay.
What?
It's nothing. Sleep well.
You're right.
I did think of her.
I laugh whenever I think of her.
Now is not the time to laugh.
You have to find the suspect within seven days.
Should I place a huge birdcage inside my quarters?
I will let her live there.
Wouldn't I laugh every day if I see her every day?
Isn't she like a chirping bird?
There are birds that can't survive within a cage.
How about giving her a whole hill so that she won't feel caged?
I will plant green and red trees everywhere, and plant wild flowers in between.
Wild flowers… wild flowers…
I remember! Her name! It was So Ah.
I remember!
So Ah. I was able to remember on my own.
Thief! That person over there!
Stop trying so hard.
There, that herbal medicine place, let's stop by for a bit.
Why there?
I have to take care of some business…
What business?
Then, I guess I'll just have to take care of it right here next to the handcart.
No, no, no.
It's urgent!
Leave this here.
- Why? - Hurry.
Ah, seriously!
Hurry! Get up!
I'm going to die! Please help me!
These scary men are after me!
Lady! Lady! I'm about to die!
You!
Thank you, Buddha.
Lady! I apologize, but please hand us the girl that just went in there.
No, you can't.
He's trying to sell me off.
Is that true?
She's our household's handmaiden. She's refusing to listen-
He's lying! I've never met him before.
My father is Susagong.
If you want this girl back, tell your Master to come get her from our home himself.
Is it too difficult to understand what I said?
No.
I understand. Have safe travels.
Let's go.
You saved my life. I will never forget this.
I thought you lived in the mountains. What did you do?
I have to find a person.
Who?
If I want to find him, I have to find that other guy first.
The other guy?
The guy I saw at your place. The two who always stick together.
Which one between the two?
Han Cheon? Soo In? I don't know who's who…
Anyway, I have to find him and ask him something.
Do you know where I can find him?
You got into the right carriage.
Am I… still dreaming?
You… Who are you?
Whether it be a dream or not, answer me now.
Have you awaken, Your Majesty?
Since you are here, I see that this is not a dream.
Have you awaken because of this girl? I apologize.
I asked her to quietly change the incense burners.
Incense burner?
This girl was the one who was responsible for lighting the incense before you slept.
Then, is she a medical assistant?
She did study medicine, and is extremely skilled.
What is your name?
His Majesty is asking you a question.
Can I leave now?
What did she say?
She's only worked with medicinal herbs all her life, so she's very shy.
She's asking if she can leave now.
You studied medicine.
Then, why don't you take my pulse?
Hurry.
It looks like she knows what she's doing. At least from the looks of it.
Are you crying? Why so?
Why is she like this?
What are you doing? Let him know what you found.
Your Majesty…
Yes.
You are so exhausted,
but you can't even express it since you are the king.
So, how does it look?
How long has it been
since you've slept soundly without any nightmares?
What is your name?
It's Boo Yong.
Seeing you two here, it seems like they spent the night here. Right?
You're here?
He's inside, right?
Yes? No. I mean, he's here.
I brought some breakfast for him.
This girl came to look for Han Cheon and Soo In. Can you let them know?
Han Cheon and Soo In?
Ah, got it.
The Crown Prince was hurt from a fall during the hunt yesterday.
I made some soup using medicinal herbs. I wonder if it'll fit his taste.
The Crown Prince is here? Not at the palace?
I know, right?
He keeps sleeping out here instead of the great palace.
Where are you going?
I will wait outside.
When those two come out, send out-
Are you trying to leave me by myself? I will be bored. Stay here with me.
Okay.
The Crown Prince is not a scary person.
I'm sure he isn't. I'm sure he won't be mean to a lady like yourself.
The Crown Prince is also a man-
Ah…
Why?
By any chance…
What?
Ah…
What are you thinking?
Because the Crown Prince hurt himself from a fall,
you made this soup from medicinal herbs yourself this early in the morning.
Ah… what?
It's nothing.
Who's here?
- The lady of Susagong family— - I'm not here.
She's here as well. The handmaiden from the Minister's household,
the student from the Eye of the Dragon school, the one you don't know the name of.
You didn't tell her who I am, right?
No, we did not.
Do I look like the Crown Prince right now?
Answer.
No, you absolutely do not.
Absolutely not? Are you saying that I'm inadequate?
Huh?
♬ He lives within me. ♬
♬ His reflection moves within my eyes. ♬
♬ From within the times that were hidden, ♬
♬ I am here now. ♬
You came by carriage, right? I'll escort you out.
I brought breakfast…
I will give it to him.
I want to say hello at least.
Let's go.
Is the Crown Prince okay?
He's fine.
You are bolder than you look.
How dare you steal the Crown Prince's alcohol?
- I'm just tasting it. - I thought you were going to fall into the claypot.
Be quiet.
Violence and assault? How dare you, to the Crown Prince's guard-
Give it back.
I won't.
Why are you here? Are you here to see me?
- Not you, but the other one. - Soo In?
Where is he? I have something to ask him.
I'm sure I know everything he does.
I heard the Crown Prince almost got shot by an arrow, right?
Only those close to the Crown Prince know of this. How did you know?
You're looking for the suspect, right? Count me in.
Do you know the suspect?
The one wearing black clothing and a straw hat.
How do you know the guy?
I saw you chasing after him.
- Tell me how you know! - I'm asking you the same!
Wait, wait, wait. Let's speak softly. It looks like you two are fighting.
Who is he?
Stop it.
That person,
seven years ago,
killed my madam.
You can't trust that girl.
That girl has a name. So Ah.
She says she's the handmaiden of the Minister's household, but no one knows of her.
She's not a handmaiden now.
She's a student of the teacher in Doota Mountain.
Her relationship with the Minister is also very questionable. That night-
He could have been tailing her because he was worried about her.
How long are you going to hide your identity and keep her by your side?
Until it gets boring.
What?
So Ah. You're hungry, right?
Here.
- What is this? - The tattoo on that guy's forearm.
- Is it a snake? - It's red, and it goes from his wrist to his elbow.
We'll take it from here. Please leave now.
That's not fair.
Yeah, that's unfair.
It's dangerous and troublesome.
I speak from experience, but she's not one to trouble us.
And her artistic skills are better than yours.
- Move this. - Oh, how did this get there.
Let's go together. To catch this guy.
So, there are people who dealt with that guy?
Soo In caught those guys, but they escaped.
As expected.
- As expected what? - By the way you look and do things…
Goodness.
What?!
Let's go together, So Ah.
We're investigating under the Crown Prince's command.
It is indeed my engraving on the arrow.
This was made here.
When was the last time they were made and delivered?
The night of two weeks ago.
Due to the hurried request.
Were there any that were pocketed before the delivery?
No, of course not.
Any defected items, whether it be the engraving or arrow itself,
are burned and taken care of over there.
How many were delivered that night?
We counted it three times.
There were 24 bundles, so 120 arrows.
We counted how many arrows the Crown Prince had that day.
There were exactly 118 arrows.
So two arrows were missing.
You.
Yes, sir.
Speak.
Yes?
What you were just thinking.
That… I was the one who delivered the arrows that night.
On the way, there was an accident.
We met a couple along the way. The wife was in her last month of pregnancy.
By any chance, was one of the couple chubby and one skinny?
Yes, that's right. They were.
So it was them? The ones you saw?
We'll find out when we catch them.
Catch these men, and keep them in a safe place.
Me?
Oh my goodness.
Ah! That scared me.
It's Hyung!
Have you guys been well?
You grew even more!
It's so hard to see you guys lately.
We're a bit busy, unlike you.
Then give us some work.
If I give you something to do, will you do it?
Of course!
We want to do it!
- One is chubby, and one is very skinny. - What the?
- They seem to hang out together frequently. - What are you doing?!
It's not him.
- From his right wrist. - To his elbow.
- Long. - And red.
They're dangerous, so don't try to capture them yourselves. Don't let them escape.
What are you doing?!
This!
You're still hungry after eating that much?
Give us two penny's worth.
Tell me the truth. You two aren't trainees right?
You and your suspicions.
Earlier you were giving orders to the other guards.
What kind of trainee has such power?
We are trainees, but…
Then you two must be sons of powerful families, huh? Gosh, this here is the problem.
You don't have skills to save your life, yet you get to use your father's power to order others around.
I don't think our skills amount to zero.
You have no shame.
I don't think our skills amount to zero!
Well, she's not wrong.
Then, since you have your family's power and authority, why don't you pay for this?
What?
If you measure our skills, I'm one step ahead of Soo In.
That's not right.
He disagrees.
You've never beaten me in a race before. That's why you've never received the Little Dragon sword.
What's a Little Dragon Sword?
Something that doesn't exist in this world. It just exists by name.
Just beat me once if you want to see it.
He says to beat him.
You should speak properly.
You always get a head start.
In competitions, the starting point should be precise.
Then I'll do it. The starting point.
Good.
Same.
The three-way intersection will be the finish line. The winner gets the Little Dragon sword.
Competition…
What?
Start!
What kind of a…

Up to here.
Why?
It's late. Please go on your way.
Then, when you find them-
We will contact you.
Just let us know where you'll be, and go on your way.
What are you doing?
Don't worry about me.
I'll be here, so let me know right away when something happens.
What are you doing? Hey!
Hurry, come in.
Okay.
It's that girl.
She was with the Crown Prince and Wang Rin.
I know that girl.
She bumped into me intentionally the day I got the arrows.
Did she see your face?
She couldn't have. I quickly lost her.
She seems to have seen your wrist.
Sorry?
The street kids are looking for someone with a red snake tattoo on his forearm.
The girl you claim you lost was following you in the hunting ground.
You… let her live?
I will take care of her. I will make sure nothing goes wrong.
Do you even know her name?
I'll find out.
It's So Ah. That girl's name.
It's written on her knife.
Please return my knife.
So Ah
It's an expensive and valuable knife. Something only a royal or wealthy person could have.
How does that girl have this?
Probably not through her own means. Someone must've given it to her.
Did she seem close with the Crown Prince?
They seemed candid with one another.
Is that so?
It's a good thing I let her live.
Let's go.
There's lots to do tonight.
Every hour is urgent, hence I've asked to be in Your Majesty's presence at this late hour.
- I am listening. - The assassination attempt on Your Majesty at Bok Jeon Jang…
The crown prince is investigating that matter.
He's working diligently on it, I hear.
Please stop the Crown Prince from investigating, Your Majesty.
What do you mean?
I am asking.
The Crown Prince is arresting men with leads on the matter, but…
But then?
I've received report that someone's killing them off in succession.
Does the Crown Prince know this too?
Well…
You should've reported this to the Crown Prince first!
Your Majesty! That person works for Crown Prince.
What's this now?
Everyone's great at making up things.
Did you hear it too?
Did you hear?
Before I came, I've done some research beforehand.
And then?
Crown Prince and the third son of Susagong.
And that person, they went around together and many saw them.
That person?
So then? That person is…
Killing off those who have leads on the assassination attempt?
I believe we will need to look into it.
Before the truth is out, perhaps it'd be good
to halt the investigation carried out by Crown Prince.
Did you hear?
Yes, I heard.
What are they doing?
That's… it was about Crown Prince.
What about Crown Prince?
That he's killing off the witnesses.
- Who is? - A person who works for the Crown Prince.
What are you talking about?
The Crown Prince is having this person kill off his witnesses.
The witnesses who are linked to the King's assassination attempt.
How… does all this alcohol go in your small body?
How do you think I became my teacher's favorite pupil?
The only disciple who can withstand my teacher's liquor fill and drunk behavior till the end,
is only me.
I think she's drunk.
If she's not drunk after all the alcohol she drank, that wouldn't make her human.
You'll burn your hand.
So why did you drag her in and give her all the wine she asks for?
Bear it.
I'm bearing it now.
There's no house I can crawl into in this entire capital.
And I have not one penny of traveling money so I'm a beggar.
And it's our madam's memorial date so I ran here 100 miles.
And yet there isn't a single person to pour me a cup of liquor.
Here, drink.
Drink it all. All of it.
Drink lots. That's still going in.
Wow, how interesting.
Seven years ago…
You startled me.
Our madam died because of me.
For seven years, I thought about it every night.
If I hadn't been stubborn about going a different way…
So then if the bodyguards didn't have to be split in half…
I think it'll be best to stop drinking.
If only just one person told us.
Just one person. If someone told us not to go that road.
That we can't. If someone said that to us, no one would've died.
It could've been that no one needed to die.
That's what's bitter.
Every night.
What are you doing?
Look here.
That's her drunk act I think. She sleeps when she's drunk.
She did that in the cave before too.
She drank up a barrel of wine by herself and went flat.
She's half dead.
It would've been the case.
If I hadn't regarded what was happening to you all as a mere amusement…
If only I had alerted you ahead of time,
they wouldn't have all died.
This child's always sleeping crouched up.
I think she's been sleeping like this every night since seven years ago.
Please stop thinking about it.
While I sleep soundly every night with my legs stretched out.
Use my room to sleep. I'll get it ready.
This child…

Crown Prince arrested them, but someone killed them.
Someone planted this to frame Crown Prince.
Tell them to hurry and open up the path.

Because I couldn't bear being apart for even a moment.
I've come to like a woman for the first time in my life.
