SCATLET HEART, RYEO --Roman Under The Absolute Monarchy, Nine





Heavy rain poured from the sky as a song of joy when Prince Wang So reached the altar, the joy of the King's family and the people of Goryeo overflowing. The 4th prince turned out to have a terrible power calling for rain, Heaven blessed him. However, Queen Yoo's blood seemed to boil, she never dreamed of a moment the 4th Prince would arrive on an amazing day. When the rain finally poured out after the land across the dry kingdom, because he was elected as a ritual leader. While Hae Soo's face paled, as the 4th Prince turned back, staring with a triumphant smile. Suddenly Hae Soo gets her eyesight again, she is not staring at Prince Wang So, but The Majesty King Gwangjong is in a dark coloured outfit.
"Venerable King Gwangjong ...." softly Hae Soo's voice said, but it was enough for Ji Mong to hear and turn to the source of the voice.
Queen Yoo can not stand longer in the place, with furiously she left the ritual after the rain of eagerly awaited. She did not want to stare at Prince Wang So prostrate to give thanks to Heaven with cosmetology fade, the scar was visible again. However, the face with the scar will no longer be frightening, Prince Wang So has saved the whole Goryeo from the drought.
"A hero has been born", Prince Wang Won is thrilled, deep in the heart he keeps a question mark, how can Wang So cover a scar?
"Could Wang So use makeup from expert hands to cover scars? Who's the makeup artist? She must be a very great woman .... " Prince Wang Jung is no less astonished by Prince Wang Won. Prince Wang Wook who heard Prince Wang Jung's speech immediately turned to where Hae Soo stood in a rain. Prince Wang Wook knew that the great cosmetologist was Hae Soo.
While Hae Soo feels her whole body is shaking, shivering. She must realize, that Prince Goryeo who will become King Gwangjong, who will kill his brother for the throne is Prince Wang So. Hae Soo looks at Prince Wang Wook anxiously, what will happen to the 8th Prince? Will he also be killed? Hae Soo can not imagine that possibility.
Hae Soo can not rejoice when the people of Goryeo worship and parade Prince Wang So, though the scar is again visible. After struggling to help cover the scars with makeup, now fear strikes. Will Prince Wang So eventually become King Gwangjong, for intervening as a cosmetologist in the ritual of rain? Is he contributing in making a mistake, then one day a prince can kill another brother?
Suddenly Prince Wang Wook grabs Hae Soo's hand, away from the crowd. This time Hae Soo did not feel the togetherness, she dissolved further and further in anxiety. It is not easy to accept the fact that King Gwangjong who will kill his brothers is the 4th Prince. A man who is very close, even almost without distance, though she is only a lady.
"Did I participate in helping a prince as a ritual leader in the rain, then he will reign as King of Goryeo?" Hae Soo murmured softly The feeling that came back to gaze at Prince Wook's face was frightened, "Watch out for Prince Wang So, never contrary to all his wishes ... "Hae Soo unconsciously said, which is always in the heart is Wang Wook, he could not lose this prince.

On the other hand Prince Wook Wook was amazed, among all the faces of joy after the rain fell. Hae Soo looks exactly the opposite, her face cloudy and frightened. Why? Prince Wang Wook will never get an answer, he has not yet reached the future.
While Choi Ji Mong was in a heated argument with Prince Wang Yo, "It is the will of heaven, then the rain suddenly drops when Prince Wang So leads the ritual", the star's expert defends the 4th Prince.
"I should have sent rain down, not So", the 3rd Prince looked at Choi Ji Mong furiously. Wang So gets a golden opportunity to gain recognition from the whole of Goryeo, his prowess as a ritual leader. His figure has resided in the hearts of the royal family and the people. What will happen to him?
Queen Yoo arrives shortly afterwards with a face no less furious, her gentle hands held high up, and "Plakk !!" a slap landed on Prince Wang Yo's cheek. "You miss a very decisive opportunity, stupid! Should never let go, if there is someone who wants to take what should be yours. Cut off his neck!" Queen Yoo's voice sounded as if lightning struck. Prince Wang So's face was pale, he was so frightened of her anger that he had disappointed him.
"Sorry mother, this is a mistake", Prince Wang Yo defended himself, he must confront the queen mother under such circumstances?
"If I were to be the mother of the king, you must be able to act, even if it is cruel. I'm sure Hae Soo who helps So cover the scars. I swear I'll burn the Palace of Damiwon",  the face of Queen Yoo as bright as the embers, why a lady whoever lost her memory can change the fate of a prince? Why?
                                                                               ***
 After the rainy ritual ended, the Crown Prince has returned the palace, Prince Wang So with Prince Wang Mo both face the King's Majesty, "I feel happy and proud of your greatness as the leader of the rain ritual. The people of Goryeo are grateful, the drought is over ", King Taejo's face looks happy, he gazes at Prince Wang So with compassion. This time the 4th Prince is no longer wearing a mask. The figure standing before him with the Crown Prince is a handsome face. Miracles have happened.
"I am pleased that So has replaced the role of ritual leader. Rain is down", Crown Prince is equally happy, Wang So replaces his duty, he is late again, because it is blocked by a bunch of thieves.
"After so long I finally got to see your handsome face ", King Taejo's smile widened, he was amazed. Without the mask and scratches of Prince Wang So's wound was a charming appearance.
"Thank you father," Prince Wang So nodded, for the rest of his life he looked forward to a moment like this, when he finally called father to a king. When he can be treated like any other prince, with all respect.
"Show your face to the world, belief in yourself. Keep beside the Crown Prince as a great power to build Goryeo for the better," is the advice of The Royal Majesty with sincerity.
"I received The Majesty's order," Prince Wang So responded to the uncertain, the Goryeo's door was wide open, for the mercy of The Royal Highness he had no reason to waste it, while Choi Ji Mong and Crown Prince stared at each other with smiles , both know the ability of Prince Wang So to fight and his loyalty will be a force worthy of reckoning.                                                                           
                                                                             ***
In the meantime Prince Wang Wook leads Hae Soo in a shady spot, there is a nuisance to the heart, Hae Soo's face looks gloomy and frightened. The girl's hand was trembling as she clasped her hand, "Are you covering Wang So's scar?" Prince Wang Wook asked. In response, Hae Soo nods weakly "Are you afraid of getting punished, for touching the prince's face?" Prince Wang Wook again asks, but Hae Soo can not answer even a word. "Your action is very precise, rescuing the 4th Prince. He has been able to perform without wearing a mask, he managed to lead the ritual of rain. Nothing will happen, even though Wang So replaces the Crown Prince's duties in ritual", Prince Wang Wook never understood the fear that gripped Hae Soo's, little heart. His words could not make the pale face radiant, the lady still silenced a thousand languages.
 "After the ritual of rain The Royal Majesty will grant a request. I will ask The Majesty to let you go", the handsome face of Prince Wang Wook smiles, he still has hope, Hae Soo will always be by his side. However, Hae Soo is buzzing with anxiety, she does not grasp the good intentions and expectations of the 8th Prince.
"I can not just stay still, I have to find out," the girl murmured softly. She said goodbye to Prince Wang Wook, she had to meet someone who could answer the question - Choi Ji Mong.
 "Does a star expert know who will be the next king?" sad of Hae Soo's eyes.
"If there is no obstacle of Crown Prince has been elected", the answer was very calm.
"Then who after the Crown Prince?"
"Gwangjong ... as you say. You call Prince Wang So as Gwangjong", Choi Ji Mong's voice remained calm, as if he had been able to see the future. The star expert stared at Hae Soo for a moment before telling the story. "When I was about four and five, I drowned. People say I'm dead. However, it turns out that I re-awakened the next day", Choi Ji Mong's words cause Hae Soo to be stunned, the story is not much different from what had happened to her.
Hae Soo is still stunned when the star expert returns the story, "From that moment on I became changed, mother said that I am becoming more mature and wiser than my actual age. I've seen eyes, dream or real. I've seen a big bird carrying people flying over the sky, I've seen stairs that can move up and down. I even saw the sky-high buildings inhabited by many people ", Choi Ji Mong's words caused Hae Soo to stumble.
 "Is Choi Ji Mong coming from the future like me? Maybe she did not remember it at all, because it was too young", Hae Soo talked to herself.
"I heard you also rose from the dead again. Have you seen the future? Now can ask, what do you really want to know?" Choi Ji Mong stares at Hae Soo's hoarse face, he knows the girl's heartache. There are too many questions in Hae Soo, will Wang So really be King Gwangjong? Is the King's Majesty right to kill everyone? How did Prince Wook's fate? What was the future of Prince 8? The question had reached the tip of her tongue, but Hae Soo soon swallowed again. “Should I do?"
" Nothing, nothing you need to do. Let everything happen just like water flowing, never get involved”.
" I think I can still change it, I still have hope to change something bad to be good".
" You cover the scar on Prince So's face, then he does not need to wear a mask again, look terrible as a ritual leader in the rain? An unpredictably rainy thing really comes down".
"Is Prince So's destiny changed because he no longer wears a mask?"
"In this case, I can not answer, no one knows whether destiny will change or have been established from the beginning? Man will not be able to escape from the will of Heaven. Let everything run properly, then you will be saved". The conversation ended, Hae Soo did not fully understand, but she did not have. She lived a strange living destiny, she could only stare with all the feeling dragged away, unable to do anything. She has long-awaited continuous colouring from the sky of Goryeo, ending a long, dreary dry season.
Prince Wang Wook was silent on the rain as Princess Yeon Hwa arrived, without many words immediately opening the conversation, "So has succeeded in earning the trust of The Majesty the King, for the success of bringing rain. You should be the one who supposedly succeeded the Crown Prince leading the ritual", the princess's face was overwhelmed with regret, she was deeply fond of the 8th Prince and hoped that someday Wang Wook would be king.
"That ritual is destiny for So, in this case, he is needed. No need to get involved", Prince Wang Wook was still staring at the rainwater pouring from the sky. The heat of the air has turned cool.
 "One who believes in The Majesty King usually has a high fantasy, one more person to watch out for in the court environment",  Princess Yeon Hwa is still dreaming, no one will be able to hinder Wang Wook's steps to the throne.
"Hae Soo says the same thing, Wang So will change", The 8th Prince thinks hard, why two very close women have the same impression. It is as if Wang So should not accept The Majesty's faith after what has been experienced.
 "So the lady reminds you, too? Do you have to be careful of Wang So?" Princess Yeon Hwa's is always uncomfortable with Hae Soo's name.
"Hae Soo who helps So cover the scars on his face, so he can appear as a ritual leader. So has made a miracle", Prince Wang Soo spread his hands, as if he had missed a thousand years of rain. Hae Soo should feel proud, she has also determined the destiny and destiny of Prince Wang So. However, why is the lady even scared? Is not as a fellow prince he will still have a place in the palace?
While Hae Soo walks with a staggering step, a glimpse of her face reveals as if the lady is in a daze. Prince Wang So, a very close man turned out to be the forerunner of a cruel king. Can she continue to be near the prince? Suddenly someone pulls her into a hug, Hae Soo screams when realizing the man turns out to be Prince Wang So. Unknowingly she pushed the 4th Prince. "Sorry, I'm surprised", Hae Soo quickly apologizes. She did not dare bear the consequences if Prince Wang So knew she was really pushing him.
Prince Wang So smiles, he trusts Hae Soo's apology. Can he be angry with a girl who has saved the ritual leader in the rain? Hae Soo's little hands and her kindness have changed destiny forever. "For the first time in life, I can finally call The Majesty the King with the title father. For the first time in 15 years, my father looked at me without pity. The Majesty asked me to be more confident and a strength for the Crown Prince, all the pain suddenly disappeared. Everyone continues to thank, no one says how frightening Prince Wang So, no one else calls me an animal. It's weird, but I'm starting to like myself this way. You have changed everything", Prince Wang So sincere angel, he never felt happy like this when being next to Hae Soo. The lady has done terrible acts, escorting him as the ritual leader of the rain, so the rain really goes down.
Prince Wang So does not realize, or he is too happy to just realize, so he forgot to know the heart of Hae Soo. The lady did not show a happy smile at all. On the other hand Hae Soo looks at Prince Wang So at close range, trying not to believe that the smiling prince will turn into a mean king. Hae Soo forgets Choi Ji Mong's words for not getting involved, she still thinks she can change the future of Gwangjong. With that belief, Hae Soo says, "Later, if burned anger, remember to always be a fair man, never shed blood, since the ritual of rain no one will make you angry. Everyone will pay respect and love”.
However, Prince Wang So still feels too happy to hear the message. That the meeting with Hae Soo would eventually lead one day, so he made it amazing as the ritual leader of the rain. There was never enough thanks to be given to this lady. Prince Wang So knew that he would never be able to release Hae Soo, his whole life was carried away too much.
                                                                          ***
The following day, The Royal Highness with Choi Ji Mong and General Park saw the princes gather in the pavilion. "Who among princes can marry Soon Duk?" King Taejo opens the conversation. "What about Prince Jung? Soon Duk and Jung are both fonds of martial ", Choi Ji Mong gives a suggestion with common sense".
“Households will be destroyed if the husband and wife continue to fight ", General Park denied.
"Or So?" King Taejo gave another choice.
“Sorry, no",  For a moment, General Park paused before finally saying, "Better with Prince Eun", that answer caused The Majesty King and Choi Ji Mong to be shocked. Why Eun? Of course King and Taejo and the star experts do not understand, how the heart of the generals daughter has been adrift to Prince Wang Eun.
With a certain step The Majesty King came to the princes. "I am grateful for all the hard work of the princes, especially So who has overcome the drought of this country. So, what is your request? What do you want, maybe the land in Songak?"
" Thank you The Majesty, the land in Songak is not. If Lord Reverend permits Hae Soo as a personal lady, I will be very grateful", Prince Wang So appealed unexpectedly and surprisingly.
"Well, I have your request ", it is not difficult for The Royal Highness to grant Prince Wang So. What was the difficulty of giving a personal lady to a rabid leader who had succeeded in bringing rain? While the other prince was silent, why did Wang So make a strange request? A lady?
Hae Soo nods, she has no choice but to approve. As for Prince Wang Wook seems objectionable, but how can she refuse a king's consent after the ritual leader requests rain? The 8th prince fell silent, glancing at Hae Soo with a dazed mind.
"And one announcement, a wedding will be held. Eun will marry Soon Duk ", this announcement shocked Prince Wang Eun. The King's words are calm, but in Prince Prince Eun's ear sounds like a drum war is played. The woman who always thought of Hae Soo, but now confidently the king's father announced his marriage to Park Soon Duk. Does he love the daughter of the generals?
Directly Prince Wang Eun kneeled, "Apologies The Majesty, I am still too young to marry. Do I love Park Soon Duk?" Prince Wang Eun feels his head is spinning, he never even expects Park Soon Duk to be present in his life.
As King Taejo's face turns as bright as the embers, Hae Soo feels the hairs on her neck bristle. Was it in anger that a king could kill his son? The power of King Goryeo is absolute, especially in holding a prince's wedding ceremony. The wife chosen for a prince can not be challenged, or a gallows will be prepared. Crown Prince felt the hot steam begin to spread to the room, he knew must do something to save Prince Wang Eun. The prince saluted The Majesty King and said, "Prince Eun must be very happy with this marriage, so lose the right words to say thank you. Eun ... thank you ".
With a pale face and the whole body feels heavy Prince Wang Eun finally gets up," Thank you The Majesty ... "the voice sounded limp. Fell from inside the arm of Prince Wang Eun, as if to confirm that he is still a little boy and not ready to marry. After the conversation passed Prince Wang Eun feel the need to talk to Prince Won, his heart feels depressed. "Women look different on the first night, after that all the same. I was not even sure what the first wife was and where the second wife was", Prince Wang Won knew the pride of the young prince's heart. In the presence of the two prince wrestlers, Prince Won's eyes widened when he saw one of the wrestlers Park Soon Duk, Prince Wang Eun.
With Prince Wang Won's might to try to block Prince Eun, he does not want to see the 10th Prince see the bride in a wrestling match against Prince Jung. However, Prince Wang Eun forced himself to see. When seen Park Soon Duk was wrestling against Prince Jung, even managed to defeat the prince. Prince Wang Eun's head again feels shrinking, can he approach the first night with a wrestler and live together forever as a husband and wife?
                                                                       ***
While Prince Wang Eun was in deep turmoil. Then Hae Soo will live a different life as a personal lord of Prince Wang So. Before leaving Damiwon Palace he felt the need to meet Prince Wang Wook to reward the bracelet he had received. "This pillow I made at the request of Madame Hae so that the 8th Prince can sleep soundly." Prince Wang Wook received the gift awkwardly, he was disappointed Hae Soo did not seem to understand Madame Hae's dead message. He also has a present for Hae Soo, a book. A gift that causes Hae Soo to sigh no less disappointed, he mistakes Prince Wook to force him to learn. The change of face made Prince Wook smile amused, he needed to show the actual content of the book. Each page is a series of images, if reversed quickly it will look like a moving picture. Miraculous, sweet smile re-admitted answered Hae Soo, she happily flipped through the picture book. Prince Wang Wook felt the opposite, he must admit bitterly his hopes ran aground.
"Soon a royal wedding will take place, it means a lady will not be able to be released", Prince Wang Wook's hushed voice caused Hae Soo's smile to disappear overhear.
"Certainly will another chance tone", Hae Soo still has confidence, still hopeful.  No longer convinced, a second chance will come.
”Often the opportunity comes only once after it's gone forever ... "
"If the prince be patient waiting, I will also wait", deep in Hae Soo's heartfelt giddy, what if the anxiety of the 8th Prince is right? Will never attend a second chance, he will lose Prince Wang Wook forever. Hae Soo rushes to distract herself, she re-look at the drawing book. At first she did not realize, after noticing more deeply, Hae Soo understood, the series of pictures is a story as they walk on a pile of snow. Some melted in the heart of the girl's heart, bad premonition, how she could talk about a concern that had not happened unless she had to face.
"Next time when it snows, we have to go back for a walk", Prince Wang Wook still expects one more chance - the sign of hope is true. "I will always wait for that moment", strangely, uncharacteristically when he meets Prince Wang Wook. This time Hae Soo felt sad - deep sadness. "You are the only one I love", Prince Wang Wook hugged Hae Soo tightly, as if he did not intend to let go.
                                                                                  ***
Hae Soo can not stay longer with Prince Wang Wook, though both are very fond. She had to go back to her maiden assignment, she still had time to talk with Sanggung Oh, "What if I could change the lives of others? Should I turn to him?" Hae Soo opens the conversation, still picturing the face of King Gwangjong at altitude in the rain ritual, there is a wedge in the pit of the stomach.
Some moment silence, until the sound of Sanggung Oh sounded," Before settling in the palace, I had to hand over heart to a man. We are always both picking flowers and herbs. I thought he had forgotten high ideals and had chosen to live together. I did not expect him to even build a place, and I never dared to touch him. No need to change for the sake of someone else, no need to have the confidence to be able to change someone", Sanggung Oh no doubt with those words, she has tasted bitter because of it.
Hae Soo took a deep breath, she can see the sad face of Sanggung Oh behind her eyes which is cold. She had enough of this short conversation, there was the task of waiting, the makeup of Prince Wang So's face so that the scar did not look scary.
"It is not difficult to do this makeup, the prince can do it himself every day ", according to Hae Soo makes up his own face will be easier than to be assisted by a lady.
"You mind to always makeup my face?" Prince Wang So asked.
“More comfortable for a prince to do on your own", Hae Soo gives a piece of paper that contains a face makeup recipe. "Prince can set the colour, red by adding powder", Hae Soo has a reason for every answer.
Prince Wang So glances at the lady, there is a difference in attitude shown by Hae Soo. The lady looks softer, much different from the attitude at the first time met, then Hae Soo more like a boy. Soon Oh Sanggung Oh came with his exact step, "Apologies, Prince Wang So is awaited", the voice of the lady's head was no less steady with her pace. She looked at Prince Wang So briefly then passed away.
"Prince should be more careful from the moment ", Hae Soo completes her task before Prince Wang So leaves alone in this room.
                                                                               ***
 Away from where Hae Soo abandoned Prince Wang So, Woo Hee, a pretty girl was agile practising a sword dance, but she immediately screamed softly. The movement caused her to suffer an injury. The girl needs to stop the movement, take a few moments, before finally her footsteps move closer to the melodious sound. Under a shady tree, Prince Baek Ah was blowing a bamboo trumpet with the children. For a moment Woo Hee was stunned, she knew the figure of the hornblower, while the presence of a beautiful girl with a sword in the hand almost caused Prince Baek Ah and the children almost jumped. I just practice sword dance, do not be afraid I will not hurt anyone, Woo Hee's voice is no less melodious with birdsong.
 "I've seen you in Hubakjae", Prince Baek Ah still remembers the charming and agile figure, a girl Hubakjae. He reached into his pockets, distributed the confectionery to the children who were present with him. Woo Hee felt no need to respond to Prince Baek Ah's words, she went away. "Hey ... why go? You have to pay for a painting that has ever been torn apart. If you can not afford it, show me the ability of the sword dance", Prince Baek Ah looks for reasons to linger with the girl.
"Paid the price of the painting? Not important! You work hard to please the nobles", Woo Hee's voice was sarcastic.
"You came because of the melodious sound of the trumpets I played. Now I ask you to dance the sword", there is a feeling of comfort when Prince Baek Ah looks at this beautiful face. He will feel lost when she has to be suddenly abandoned.
"I do not dance to a stranger," Woo Hee does not realize that her beautiful face is more beautiful when she loses a smile.
"So that I'm not a stranger to you, we'd better get acquainted. I am Baek Ah, what is your name?" How nice is it to know the name of a sword dancer.
"If you are Baek Ah, I am your helper ", Woo Hee replied indifferently. The answer that caused the Prince was unnerved, is a resident of Goryeo Palace. Prince Baek Ah reaches for musical instruments, he intends to introduce himself as the 13th prince, but Woo Hee has disappeared. The hanger of the beads had fallen on the ground, a beautiful little thing and only a noble family-owned. Prince Baek Ah immediately picked it up.

                                                                                ***
In the palace of busyness in progress, Hae Soo was ordering the court ladies to prepare a few drinks, suddenly Park Soon Duk appeared with an anxious face, she has performed properly a bride with luxurious clothes, "You should meet the 10th Prince, do not let anything happen to him", the princess begged, she had long waited, but Prince Wang Eun had not yet left the bed.
"Why should I, is not you the bride?" Hae Soo objected.
"You can be his second wife, I do not mind. I will speak to The Majesty King and my father .... " Park Soon Duk's offer is as sincere as her heart, she will do everything for Prince Wang Eun, including giving up Hae Soo as a concubine.
While Prince Baek Ah and Prince Wang Jung are no less anxious with the bride, Park Soon Duk. Both nervously stood in front of Prince Eun's door. The longer Prince Prince Jung loses his senses, he can not wait forever. When Prince Wang Eun refused this marriage, he could get the death penalty.
 "Better to knock this door down ..." Prince Wang Jung determines his attitude.
 "Better if you want to save his life", Prince Baek Ah approves the action. When Prince Wang Jung prepares to break the door of Prince Wang Eun's room, Hae Soo appears together Park Soon Duk.
“Please open the door .... "Hae Soo need to wait a while, before finally the door opened. Prince Wang Eun was drunk, he had drunk more wine than he should have.
"The wedding plan will not change, even though the prince keeps drunk," Hae Soo regrets seeing Prince  Wang Eun, a man who has been considered a friend.
"You never understand, never felt what I was feeling ..." Prince Wang Eun's voice broke down. "Are you willing to become a second wife? A prince can have more than one wife as a king. I promise to be a good husband, even though you are not your first wife ... " Prince Wang Eun's thoughts floated on the farthest heavens, never dreaming of marrying a soldier. He always fantasizes that the woman who is going to be her bride is Hae Soo.
"Prince thought I could split my husband with some women?" Hae Soo answers the 10th Prince's request with a question. Had she become the second wife of a loved one as a good friend?
"You are a liar, you will still refuse if I ask you to be the first wife. I'm just a foolish prince ... " Prince Wang Eun's tongue tastes bitter, he not only will never get Hae Soo, he will be the husband of an unloved woman. Hae Soo kneeled near Prince Wang Eun, she needs to give strength to a friend who feels himself afflicted by a prince.
"I am really happy when I am with you, you are captivating when laughing, so too when crying, out of grief".
 "Forgive me for not meeting the request of a prince ...." Hae Soo speaks sincerely, he loves Prince Wang Eun as a friend who is always sincere and childish.
 "Did you ever love me?" Prince Wang Eun asked, had to put such a long distance with this girl.
"I always and will always love you ..." Hae Soo does not lie with her words. She had to tell the truth and then said goodbye, the bride could not wait longer. In front of the room door, Park Soon Duk, Prince Wang Jung and Prince Baek Ah listened to Hae Soo's talk with Wang Eun. Soon, Prince Wang Eun came out of the room, he could not keep silent. He must carry out the king's order, marrying Park Soon Duk. Better to love, Hae Soo is not the fate of his life.
"Not that we're getting married?" Prince Wang Eun looked at the bride. Park Soon Duk looked at Prince Wang Eun with a pair of bright eyes, she finally arrived one day when her desire to always be near the Prince of the 10th met. She has taken the right step by calling Hae Soo in this impasse. After the ceremony takes place all princes meet to celebrate the first marriage of Prince Wang Eun and Park Soon Duk.
The Crown Prince gives the prize first, hoping Park Soon Duk will be a good wife for his sister. Prince Wang Yo gave the pearl to Park Soon Duk. Prince Wang Wook gave a gift of bronze mirror to Prince Wang Eun. All the gifts caused Park Soon Duk to smile happily, her marriage got the blessing of all princes. She stood up, "Thanks to all these gifts, I promise to use well all the gifts given by the prince".
From the distance, General Park, Park Soon Duk's father looked at the meeting peacefully, he had whispered into The Majesty's ear for the marriage day beloved daughter. Nothing Park Soon Duk wanted except to be Prince Wang Eun's bride, now she has achieved it.
As for Prince Wang So giving the tree gift to Park Soon Duk and Prince Wang Eun, "I hope you both can take shelter and enjoy the fruit of that tree in the season", short message of Prince Wang So.
"Later if the tree bears fruit, I will invite all to come to our house", Park Soon Duk entertained with the prize.
"I'm glad to be able to compete under the tree", Prince Wang Jung smiled happily.
"I will definitely be able to defeat you", Park Soon Duk always sure will win with Prince Wang Jung. So all the princes laughed.
From a distance Hae Soo looked at all the prince's smile expanding, but in a moment the smile turned into fear. Looking at Prince Wang So, suddenly a moving picture emerges that erect feathers. It was the incident when Prince Wang So killed Prince Wang Eun and Park Soon Duk with a sword. Hae Soo stood stiff, cold sweat pouring down. At the same time Prince Wang Wook and Prince Wang So saw Hae Soo, who was pale with face. The lady was running away and then fell in the corner of the palace garden.
Prince Wang Wook does not have to be silent, he feels the need to hunt Hae Soo, "What are thinking about?”
 " Be careful with Prince Wang So, never get in the way. The prince should never be in trouble with the 4th Prince. Or, nobody's safe ", unconscious little hands Hae Soo holding the tip of Prince Wang Wook's clothes. Hae Soo's words caused the contents of Prince Wang Wook's head to almost spin. Why would all princes die? What does this girl really know?
"I want to get away from this place, I want to be away from the palace", Hae Soo can no longer master fear, the magnificent walls of the palace are easily covered in blood.
"I will do anything for your safety, never worried ", Prince Wang Wook hugged Hae Soo's limp body, he felt as if in contact with a piece of ice. The body is right to shiver.
                                                                              ***
After the wedding ceremony and festive gift-giving, the night slowly arrived. The sky was inundated with ink puddles, but also dangling, because of the stars. Park Soon Duk has been looking forward to a life of a thrilling night that will trim the entire distance against Prince Wang Eun. She wished for a beautiful and memorable evening, but ... Prince Wang Eun furiously stomped an empty wine cup, as if he could finish a jug of wine in a night that was never expected to come.
"Listen, we may get married, but I do not can acknowledge you as my wife. My life will be as it was before this marriage took place. Never complain, you have to answer every time I ask", Park Soon Duk is silent, she has achieved a desire to be the wife of a prince, but with bitter must realize, she never got the love of Prince Wang Eun. The wedding night becomes a painful moment, Prince 10th has declared his attitude, he will never be able to dodge. He was trapped into a trap he made himself. He can only budge so the quarrel will not always happen.
Park Soon Duk's is still silent while still with Prince  Eun's boisterous voice again saying, "How should I love you? I need a bigger bed size!" For Prince Wang Eun lay a bed with the bride on the first night too scary. Park Soon Duk can get his rage, but not his soul. Prince Wang Eun lays off all the worries, he does not allow Park Soon Duk to sleep beside him. Park Soon Duk is silent again, strangely, she still has the rest of her happiness by looking at the Prince lying there touched or touched. Park Soon Duk chooses a place to take off all the tiredness in the other corner, she has to take off the bridal clothes before accepting the fact that she is only one room with the beloved Prince but will not have one bed.
Soon the bride falls asleep, when Prince Wang Eun awakens looked at the general's daughter. If the present on the wedding day is Hae Soo, there is a love forever in the hearts of the young cast. He had to pay the price of a princely life, The Majesty King forced him to marry a woman without first asking, did he love her? Does he wish to live together forever? Unconsciously the prince's lips said, "You've told me I have to wait until the first snowfalls. Hae Soo, you are an evil liar ", the prince's tears drip, clear as dew.
On the same night in different places Prince Wang Wook was silent contemplating Hae Soo's words, "Be careful with Prince Wang So, do not be never deter. Whoever the prince should never be in trouble with the 4th Prince. Or, nobody survived", what did those words mean? Why would Hae Soo have to say it anyway? Prince Wang Wook who is recognized as a scholar Goryeo think hard, but he was unable to get an answer.
                                                                  ***
 The next day after the wedding of Prince Wang Eun and Park Soon Duk passed The Majesty  King continued his duties as head of state, dividing duties for princes, Wang So and Wang Yo, "Wang Yo, go visit the royal territory outside Songak, check the storage area of ​​the grain".
"Last year, the general King sent there died", Prince Wang Yo replied.
" That's why I sent you. A cast member must go forward over all difficulties, with little subordinates", King Wang Geon's voice steady, he undoubtedly commanded Prince Wang Yo.
"The Majesty, what about the 3rd army's military supply duties?" Choi Ji Mong asked.
”The task was to the 4th Prince", The Majesty's answer caused Prince Wang Yo to be stung by a scorpion. His duties transferred to Prince Wang So? Is it true? He objected, but how can a prince resist the command of The Royal Highness? The meeting is over.
Without presence The Majesty the King, Prince Wang So asked Choi Ji Mong, "Did the Lord of Kings wish to throw me out of the palace in Songak?" he must understand the meaning of being set aside from the throne.
"In my opinion no, The Royal Majesty trusts Prince Wang Yo, which is more difficult", Choi Ji Mong's answer does not make Prince Wang Yo feel calm, he believes the two siblings can be hostile only because of The Majesty's favouritism.
"Since childhood the prince always wants whatever the Crown Prince has. Therefore, with that task. Accept everything that is the destiny of man ", Choi Ji Mong glanced at Prince Wang Yo's fierce face, he knew the prince's heart." Just wait what will happen later ", Prince Wang Yo dreamy away as if preparing everything that will happen in the future.
                                                                                   ***
Prince Wang Yo still holds a fury when sitting down to eat together with Prince Wang So, Prince Wang Jung and Queen Yoo. "The food tastes better, because So is with us," Prince Wang Jung smiled, during this new life, he gathered with his family. How far away Prince Wang So was before the rain ritual took place.
"It was nice to see your face", finally Queen Yoo proud of Prince Wang So who won the trust of The Royal Highness, forget the past.
"For the first time I ate with my brother So", the smile on Prince Wang Jung's lips still expands, feels peaceful gathering with family. Queen Yoo gives a piece of meat to the likes of Prince Wang So, the 4th prince chokes as he swallows it.
 "I have to go from Songak. The prince will teach you that means you will often meet the Crown Prince ", Prince Wang Yo conveyed the results of the meeting with The Majesty King. In his place of sitting Prince Wang So smiled, he knew there was Prince Wang Yo and Queen Yoo wants something, then he had the opportunity of eating together like a family.
The Prince's allegation of the 4th just as Queen Yoo said, "Kill the Crown Prince, not difficult for you, because the killing experience is not for the first time", the Crown Prince is like a thorn in the flesh of this palace, she really does not want the presence of this prince. She wants the throne for Wang Yo.
"The Majesty King can get the throne after killing his brother", Prince Wang Yo justify the wishes of the queen mother.
Prince Wang Jung feels this conversation is far from straight, he intends to intervene, but Prince Wang Yo ignores it. "If I did not become king, we would all die. We have to make plans".
"Is it true that Prince Crown is going to kill his brother?" Prince Wang Jung feels the hairs of his neck bristle, so life inside the palace wall.
"Is it true that the queen mother wants the death of the Crown Prince?" Prince Wang So asked.  "Yes", Queen Yoo answers.
 "I will do it, they will ascend the throne as king. There will be no problem when Wang So is a king. I will not harm Wang Jung and Wang Yo ", Prince Wang So is not dumb in fulfilling the wishes of the mother. Why should he kill the Crown Prince for Wang Yo? Why not be humble after showing greatness in ritual rain, so wishing to take Goryeo's throne? Prince Wang Yo did not expect this to be Prince Wang So.
“The sky supports me, Wang Yo is only supported by the family-in-law",  Prince Wang Yo did not want to lose.
 "Wang Yo has been blessed by Heaven to be King", Queen Yoo gazes into the handsome face of Wang So, she knew that when the 4th Prince came to the throne, she was a queen mother. One with the decisive authority in the palace.
"What will happen if I can seize the throne in the midst of many who want it ...?" The 4th prince chuckled.
 "Do not be so confident, do you think you're so special? You are just a shield to protect the Crown Prince, only The Majesty's use in the rain ritual for Wang Mo ", Queen Yoo is disturbed by that laugh, now she realizes, how easy it is to delve into the heart of the 4th Prince.
"I am not being used, I'm heading for the throne. Thank you for a delicious lunch, I took my leave. Never invite to eat together", Prince Wang So stood up and then retreated, a meal together turned out to be a disturbing moment. He wanted a mother and family, but what he got was a plan of murder.
Prince Wang Yo looked at the back of the 4th Prince giddily, he had guessed, it was difficult to make Wang So siding as an ally. While Prince Wang Jung feels a different mood, Prince Wang Yo and Queen Yoo are already talking about the transgressions, about the murder of Crown Prince so they eat together. Prince Wang Jung feels his heart cringing together once feels beautiful, ending scary. Why should a queen kill a Crown Prince for another prince? Slowly Prince Wang Jung retreats, as if there is broken glass nesting in the recesses of the heart.
As for Prince Wang So no less giddy than Prince Wang Jung, he is too stupid to expect the presence of a mother and family. May they only need his presence at the dinner table as the crown prince's killer? Can he slaughter a man to protect him? The prince kept walking until he stood in front of the temple, tears rolling. He can still chuckle in front of the queen's mother, but still she has to stem the tears when he has to realize, he is just empty of himself.
At the same time in Hae Soo's room gripped by fear, she tries to deny the vision of King Gwangjong with all his cruelty, but in vain. Is that history always bloody? Hae Soo sighs deeply, holding hands, looking for strength. She tried to get some fresh air out of the room, the fear still gripping. The girl was stunned when suddenly Prince Wang So appeared and called out to her "Soo ..." the sound was like a whip that spurred Hae Soo running away.
However, the girl's step stopped, as Prince Wang So tightly held her hand and hugged her as well. "Take off," softhearted Hae Soo.
"Just a minute, stay with me. I want to rest ", Prince Wang So asks, he really always wants to be close to this girl.
"I feel afraid", Hae Soo tries to free the embrace.
" Why should be afraid? "Prince Wang So looked at Hae Soo with wonder, is not this lady no longer afraid of him?
 "The mind can change, is there The Majesty who will destroy Goryeo? Let me stay away".
"Is there any need to avoid me? I do not want you to say my presence only brings bad news. Please stand with me".
"Is it still necessary?"
"You are mine, without permission you will not be able to go. You also can not die", Prince Wang So can not resist kissing Hae Soo, break away.
