SCARLET HEART' RYEO --Roman Under The Absolute Monarchy, Seventeen







The wind seemed reluctant to rustle, Hae Soo realized how very close to the distance of Prince Wang So - nobody is there. However, that figure would not be easy to reach. It was not easy for her to speak, but she had to. "Did not the prince ever say, no why not be king, which is important we can always be together. The words are forgotten now, even though we promised not to lie to each other again ", Hae Soo's eyes wandered away, she tried to be tough. Emotionally she was involved too much life inside the walls of the palace, a life that often turned into a bloodstained play.
"I must start all this to end the bloodshed. While building a new castle out there, I realized the world could change if the king changed. I will not be controlled by anyone, I can stop the bloodshed in the family environment. Finally becoming a king is a must", Prince Wang So did not hesitate with his words, he had swallowed salt acid as a prince who was devoted to a king. If the descendants of Wang Geon can occupy the throne, why not? Does not he have the ability to make changes and change his own destiny? "Do not you like me to be king?" The 4th Prince asked.
"Yeah, I do not like, having to part from you", Hae Soo can not hide the feelings of upset, there is something impressive when with Prince Wang So, if the prince is destined to be king, will she still be with him? "Prince really wants to be king?" Hae Soo needs to convince herself by asking again, in reply Prince Wang So nods his head. Hae Soo takes a deep breath, knowing that she will not be able to stop a man's will and destiny-the life path of a son of the Great King Wang Geon.
"Promise not to hurt anyone, there will be no bloodshed when the 4th Prince finally reigns as a king", at first Hae Soo is nervous, but she sees Prince Wang So nodding, feeling the stout hand of the 4th Prince clutching him. The sense of dullness faded, though she was not entirely convinced by the wordless reply of the prince.
The meeting was over.

                                                                            ***
Hae Soo was giving a cup of tea to The Royal Highness, as the gatekeeper shouted at the arrival of Prince Wang So with troops ready to attack. "Close the gate!" The voice was almost crazy, the guard knew the palace walls would be covered with blood again.
Inside the palace Hae Soo's hands tremble as she extends tea to The Majesty King Wang Yo. She grew more nervous with a look filled with suspicion of the King, while the voice hissed as if stretched from the lidar snake, "Is there a secret you? Do you sprinkle poison powder?" The Majesty  refused the tea cup, his expression reflected fear. All the ladies have tasted the tea first for The Majesty, no one wretched. But King Wang Yo has been gripped by fear that can no longer be controlled.
"My health is getting worse, all because of you", King Wang Yo felt cold ambushed the whole body, he has repeatedly shed blood for the throne where he enters the throne. Deep in the heart lumps guilt, due to the death of King Wang Mo, Prince Wang Eun and Park Seon Duk's wife. However, strike a king to admit mistakes? He is now the first person in Goryeo and can do anything, including spilling blame on a lady chief. "Moo Hyungnim, Eun, and his wife Seon Duk. Even King Taejo. Ups, all that has not bothered my mind, came to my dreams. All your fault, you disguise So's scar, miraculously he managed to rain, seize my chair, rob me of everything that belongs to me ", Wang Yo's anger is unstoppable like a flood of craters smearing the whole room. He wanted to keep saying, but how weak the whole body was, how tight it must be to breathe, how blurry the view was. The faces of King Wang Geon, King Wang Mo, Prince Eun, and Park Seon Duk looked at him alternately as if a sharp knife blade hurt. The Majesty knew that without the rest of the palace the royal throne would not even be able to save his whole life. He has separated himself from the affection of his relatives in a very cruel way. The King is still trying to speak, but Queen Yoo comes through suddenly, her face worried anxiously.
"Wang So and the army rebelled, stormed the palace", the queen's cursed fingers hastily reached for a sheet of paper and a pen. "Write a will, that thou surrender throne to Jung. Now ", without a doubt Queen Yoo thrust the paper and pen to King Wang Yo. One action that made the king seem to be thrown at the dismal tunnel of time. Is not he still alive, why should he write a will for Jung?
"It’s impossible to us to lose the throne. Now, write the will, that Jung will be the new king. The future is still in our hands ", nothing ever comes to Queen Yoo's mind, except the throne. Wang Yo has been sickly can no longer lead the kingdom at once put himself as a queen mother. He must set a worthy one to lead Goryeo, protecting his position in this kingdom, Wang Jung. In the final seconds before Wang Soo's rebellion ended Wang Yo's reign. Really, he never dreamed that So will reign as king.
The King Wang Yo stared at the queen mother with a strangled throat, not easy to speak, but he had to say, "Mother, if I had to write a will for Jung, how then my fate? Actually I am a child for whom? What does a Wang Yo mean to a mother? Am I just a pawn that is sacrificed to occupy the throne? Mother only needs a child who is able to occupy the throne and then throw it away when helpless nothing ", too late for King Wang Yo realize, that the love of Queen Yoo as a mother was not without reason. Mother loves in order to fulfill the desire for power, then dumps without mercy when he can no longer fulfill her wishes. The sky seemed to shake, the head of King Wang Yo as if hit by a rock. He has an evil character.
"Write a will, or the future will be lost forever. Give throne to Jung, now ", once again Queen Yoo gives orders. King Wang Yo looks at Queen Yoo with strangers, it turns out he never really knew a queen that must be called mother. In the limits of pain and fear, he must be cruelly distracted, he is now scarred by anxiety. The Royal Majesty closed his eyes, bitterly realizing he could no longer be with a queen.
"Guard, take Queen Yoo out, now", without waiting for the second commandment of the guard to bring the queen out of the room. Queen Yoo is shocked, she never thought Wang Yo would act decisively drive away from the palace. Unconsciously the queen screamed, screaming. However, the guard's ears seemed deaf, they only believed in one thing, the command of a king. Queen Yoo's screams did not mean anything, as if a lonely wind blew the leaves. In his place stood Hae Soo stunned, she was witnessing the end of the history of a greedy queen, who sacrificed the fate of her children. Queen Yoo is only one who can never give a sense of peace, driven from the palace walls are magnificent.
                                                                        ***
In a different place, anxiously Princess Yeon Hwa visits Queen Hwangbo's mother, hastily uttering. "Wang Wook is not anywhere, Park Soo Kyung sides with Wang So. The Imperial Guards will not be able to resist ", Princess Yeon Hwa knows the palace is in a precarious state, she must do something or will lose everything. While Queen Hwang Bo responds to Princess Yeon Hwa's worries with a cold stare, she need not dissolve in the anxiety of a princess. One thing that causes the princess confused. "Verily, thou shalt have the right to decide, no man shall ever obtain both or all things. I failed to raise children, but there is still one gap. If one wants to take over the palace, one has to sacrifice something ", Queen Hwangbo speaks the words easily, she has surpassed everything, she must quickly determine her attitude with all responsibility to bear. -words directly, but the princess understands the explicit meaning behind the words. The issue is sacrifice.
"Decide now, have the whole world, but can not feel love. Or has the love, but the world becomes very small ", Queen Hwang Bo affirmed".
“What if I want the whole world?" Princess Yeon Hwa asked.
"Then, mother will get rid of Wang Wook ", Queen Hwang Bo's voice firmly.
In the court yard, General Park, Prince Wang So, and Prince Baek Ah had been set on horseback complete with armor, ready to attack the palace, uprooted the weak and sick king. Deep in the heart General Park did not believe should attack the palace, the grandest place in Goryeo that is always protected. In the hands of Prince Wang So a sharp, shiny sword, he was ready to fight to seize the throne. However, the prince gets the opposite reception. Everything passes quickly, when the shadow of the tall Princess Yeon Hwa appears from behind the palace wall, her beautiful face looks elegant, her voice without a doubt, "I will help Hyungnim, get the throne without any shedding blood with notes will never forget our meeting today", a pair of bright eyes looked at Prince Wang So's face deeply. A moment later the beautiful face of the princess smiled when he heard the answer.
"Okay, I'm not ever forget your loyalty ", Prince Wang So never knew a plan hidden behind the sweet smile of Princess Yeon Hwa. He never even knew his heart, but now he has no choice but to promise for the throne to go.
Wang Yo did not deserve to be king, he was cruel, weak, and sick. In the room of King Wang Yo laughing outside his consciousness, he no longer has a strong support that can help him seize the throne. If Hae Soo, the lady's chief was never present at Goryeo, would his destiny be like this? Wang So finally got everything, he was just a poor boy who had been dumped, he is no longer a noble, except the victim of a queen's greed. Why should he do all this? "Like So, I thought I would be abandoned, except to follow all his wishes. Mom says I'm perfect and can do anything. However, you are too far to interfere. Everything is falling apart!" King Wang Yo shouted a chill slam pushing Hae Soo until the lady's head fell in fear.
"Now, who really has the right to the throne? Jung? Wook? Baek Ah or So?" King Wang Yo grabbed a piece of paper and his pen looked, he had seen the ruins of the palace collapsed scattered ready to bury his whole body. In close proximity, Hae Soo watches the final seconds of a desperate king with a heart pounding. She is not dreaming. "You are an intelligent man. Why not make a choice?" King Wang Yo again shouted furiously with the rest of his energy, The Majesty was still about to say, but his tongue came out.
From a different direction came a reverberation echoing, "Find the king!" The atmosphere became rowdy, as if an army of elephants came raging to destroy everything there was. The King wrote in a piece of paper and then gave Hae Soo "I'm just trying to survive ..." The voice sounded as if the laments slashed every ear hearing, then the body of King Wang Yo collapsed. The Majesty truly felt the whole wall of the palace collapse burying his sickly and helpless body. He wants to get back on the wheel of time to get the throne back in a different way, he wants to beg for forgiveness. However, his whole body was no longer energized. The pain is getting sliced, the more unbreakable the incisions. The palace ceiling turned dark and black, the faces of King Wang Geon, King Wang Mo, Prince Eun, and Park Seon Duk stared coldly, demanding revenge. He has indeed been arbitrary at the instigation of Queen Yoo who now has the heart to dump his. A moment later Wang Yo felt his body float, he could see his body collapsing helplessly in front of Hae Soo.
"I have died ...."
Prince Wang So arrived shortly thereafter in the armor, The Majesty had fallen over after his final breath. Near him was Hae Soo sitting afraid with the wills clasped in her hand.
"Have you read it?" Prince Wang So asked. As Hae Soo answers her head, for the umpteenth time she has to witness the death of a king, in the not-too-distant future. There is a something lost in the heart. When democracy is not yet the basis of leadership, power must be seized with death for death. Hae Soo did not care when Prince Wang So tore up a will written by the late King Wang Yo. She was too upset with her own life experience.
Queen Yoo came back hurriedly, telling everyone in the room to step aside. Her blood was absorbed when she saw King Wang Yo lying breathless, the proud son was gone. As for Ji Mong, he felt all the hair on his neck bristle as he realized that The Majesty was dead. So is the end of a king's life? The star's facial face looked grim. Suddenly Hae Soo bowed to greet Prince Wang So, "Congratulations to The Majesty King ...."
"What do you mean? King ?!" Queen Yoo screamed, she never wanted Wang So as king - never will.
"The Majesty gave me the throne before the last breath", Wang So felt the need to give an answer. Queen Yoo stares wide-eyed, but her eyes are blurry and vague. She had come to a day when the sun would sink forever.
"Greetings, The Royal Majesty .... Life The Majesty King!" Ji Mong and all the bodyguards kneel salute.
So, Goryeo re-recorded a new history. The day of the coronation took place quickly, with the clothes of greatness and the fate of the throne of Prince Wang So now officially became King Gwangjong, King Goryeo the 4th. The whole palace was present except Prince Wang Wook and Prince Wang Jung, both smiling sarcastically of this coronation. The dream became real when King Gwangjong Wang So lifted the royal symbol made of gold, as well as symbol of the power of a king. All the attendees saluted.
While in front of Hae Soo's palace waiting, the appearance of King Gwangjong's great clothes has been witnessed in the history of Goryeo. He has surpassed that period and then flew far ahead. "Gwangjong, 4th King Goryeo is remembered in history as a violent king. I'll do something to change those memories ", Hae Soo muttering as she stared at the newly reigned king.
                                                                    ***
In the lonely and cold reading room of Prince Wang Wook pensive, he slumped in disappointment, reverberating the mother's words "From now on, the Hwangbo Family will use force to take the position of the queen, not the king. I'm disillusioned with your attitude, the further away the common sense, slumped in the misery that should be thrown away. It would be nice if you distanced yourself from the royal family", Soon afterwards Princess Yeon Hwa, her face was beautiful, without much abilities the princess asked. "Why not attend the coronation ceremony of the king? Absence will raise a variety of questions, suspicion of not loyalty to The Majesty".
Prince Wang Wook paused a few percussions before replying," Upon arriving at Seokyeong it turns out that Wang Shik Ryum has died. I immediately sent an order to find followers of the 4th Prince, with the news that the person sitting on the throne's seat had changed. A rebel who commits treason, overthrows others even becomes a hero. The chair I really wanted, Wang So snatched it away. Do not you ever wish me who sat on the throne?" Bitter for Prince Wang Wook, his dreams to pieces before he stepped away to reach it. How will the fate of a prince for King Gwangjong, the fourth king of Goryeo?
"There is still a chance, if you can help me become a queen. Queen Goryeo will be able to act according to her authority, including revenge ", the beautiful eyes of Princess Yeon Hwa staring at Prince Wook Wook full of pleas. When the two of them stared, Prince Wook noddedly unconsciously nodded, the princess pulled over a long bundle. The road to the throne stretched again.
                                                                         ***
King Gwangjong Wang So started his first job as leader of Goryeo, read a warrant to move the capital to Seoknyeong. Prince Baek Ah was present at the same place listening. "This letter has been canceled, forced laborers are displaced, because the construction will be paid in accordance with the workload and will be repatriated to their respective homes".
"What about the workers who died when", Prince Baek Ah asked.
"If there is a request from the family please be granted, give another job and compensation. Do the same for wounded workers ". For a moment The Majesty  paused before asking, "Enough is our duty already tonight?"
"The Majesty, chief lady Hae of Damiwon has long waited," replied the prime minister.
"Is she Hae Soo?" In the place of waiting for The Majesty King, Hae Soo felt tired and sleepy, she fell asleep on the back of the king's bed. Not long afterwards The Majesty along with Prince Baek Ah and prime minister came close to Hae Soo who was fast asleep. The presence awakened Hae Soo, hastened the lady's head stood up, bowing reverently as a tribute to a king.
"Forgive the long wait", The Majesty  smiles, Hae Soo's presence always gives a sense of peace especially when the gentle face looks also smiling sweetly. Prince Baek Ah understands the meaning of the smile, as well as the accompanying prime minister behind him. The Majesty King and lady chief Hae are inseparable. The prime minister responds readily to the situation, he resigns, giving time for The Royal Highness, Prince Baek Ah, and Hae's lady chief for a private meeting. The three of them are now sitting together facing the dining table as if a long-time friend, forgetting that Wang So has now been crowned King Gwangjong. The Royal Majesty gives the meat in Prince Baek Ah's bowl, he knows the brother loves him.
"Thank You The Majesty", Prince Baek Ah nodded his head.
"We are only three of you, call me Hyungnim, and only you", Wang So who now King Gwangjong loves Prince Baek Ah, the atmosphere becomes warm when one is near the dear ones.
"Well The Majesty ...." Prince Baek Ah nodded again, he was flattered, acquiring something special from a king.
"Call me Hyungnim ...." The Majesty reminded again. Hae Soo smiles, she shifts the chair, puts an egg into Prince Baek Ah's plate. The prince who had been bowed to his feet stood, bowing to The Majesty, "Thank you." Laughter Hae So and His Majesty King instantly split, Prince Baek Ah confused-is it a wrong thing? Finally Prince Baek Ah laughs when he realizes the person who gave an egg is Hae Soo, not The Majesty.
"Ups, the pleasure of being able to gather together without fear, because of the threat of a powerful man", The Majesty's face was happy, he was tasting sweetness as the most powerful man in Goryeo. He can not be governed by anyone, otherwise he can be governed by anyone. Happiness also appears on the gentle face of Prince Baek Ah, during this time he was knocked out of the palace, only Prince Wang So who is willing to say hello. Now that the prince has become the first person, who will be able to get rid of?
"The dish tastes more delicious, because eating together ...." Hae Soo dissolves in the happiness, after sitting on the throne, The King's attitude never changes. After consuming Prince Baek Ah's delicious meal, he went away while the waiter cleaned up all the glasses and dirty dishes. The Majesty  felt tired and sleepy. He lay down and closed his eyes, and he fell asleep within a short time. Hae Soo drew a blanket for The Royal Majesty, she wanted a deep sleep for a king who had been destined for Goryeo. However, suddenly The Majesty awakens in a nightmare his face reveals a shock. Hae Soo experiences the same thing, because The Royal Highness awakens suddenly. She was transfixed when King Gwangjong hugged her tightly. "Are you going to leave me?" The Majesty seems rightly afraid of losing.
"I will go after The Holiness fell asleep, a whole day must be very tiring", Hae Soo consoled.
"Why go after I fall asleep, why not stay in this room?" The Majesty pulls the whole body of Hae Soo lying with him. Both are now staring at each other, there are various languages ​​unspoken, but each side has to know what the language means. The  Majesty wants to act more than just staring and lying down, but Hae Soo refrains from going too far.
"The Majesty has just been crowned, now is not the time", Hae Soo must be careful to act.
"I always need your presence. Had three kings occupying the same room then gone, even died in this place, the wall caused anxiety. Alone in this room the breath feels crowded. Can not you stay with me?" The Majesty King asks. Hae Soo paused.
"Can you tell one story before bedtime?"
"A story about a king?" Hae Soo asks back, why suddenly The Majesty behaves like a child, need for a fairy tale before bedtime? The Majesty nodded his head. Hae Soo took a deep breath. She plays a strange life that can not be told with common sense, but so it is. So she began to speak with a fantasy basis. "Once upon a time, there was a werewolf who killed a little girl with a red hood ..." Hae Soo started the story while clapping The Majesty until King Gwangjong's eyes closed. Hae Soo keeps on telling until soon The Majesty sits on her lap. The face looked so peaceful. Hae Soo still tells her till she suddenly feels tired with all the words, her eyes feel so heavy as if she was clinging to a rock. Everything in the room of The Majesty faded away, Hae Soo was dumbfounded, she no longer realized where the real self was. The lady's head lost all her strength, fast asleep.
The next day when awake, Hae Soo is stunned to find herself in the room of The Royal Highness. Where is King Gwangjong sleeping in her lap, because the children's fairy tales are told? The shadow of the great king was now absent, she could not inhale the scent of his body. Hae Soo fixes herself, smoothing the surrounding bedding and then rushes back to Damiwon. Has she made a mistake? Sleeping in The King's room on the first night after the coronation. She had hoped that the 4th Prince would occupy the throne, after Prince Wang So was crowned King Gwangjong, she had to realize the distance would be stretched even though The Majesty's attitude never changed. Hae Soo is grateful when she can talk to Woo Hee, "It's true I once wanted the 4th Prince to be king, but for a longer span of time. I have spent the night in his room .... " Hae Soo can not understand, has she done something right?
"The Majesty has been crowned, now a leader of Goryeo. True The Majesty has married Princess Kyung Hwa, but the princess becomes a female monk. The throne of the queen is unfilled, I hope you have to be careful, too many people pay attention ", Woo Hee advises, she understands the lady's uneasiness. The short conversation stops, Chae Ryung suddenly arrives with a panic face," Soo .... " Before Chae Ryung could speak, a waiter came, cynically, "Queen Yoo wants to meet Lady Hae's chief ".
Hae Soo did not waste her time, she immediately met Queen Yoo who was also with Prince Wang Jung. The lady's head bowed to salute, wondering what the queen was trying to convey, requiring her presence. The queen's gaze caused Hae Soo's heart to beat faster. "I purposely called you for a question. Jung, talk", Queen Yoo's voice is cold, but her eyes seem to be starting to flare by the flame of fire.
 "This paper is found in the room of the late King, is the last commandment of The Majesty," Prince Wang Jung began to say, his hand clasped with a piece of paper. "I'm sure this paper is related to the successor to the throne. Is it true that So's name is written? Is it true that the late King gave up the throne for So?" Queen Yoo asked, her gaze stabbed, Hae Soo felt the hairs on her neck bristle.
"If we are afraid to convey the truth, we can protect. The important thing is honesty", Prince Wang Jung also asked, he did not believe in the deceased king's will until Wang So was crowned.
"True", Hae Soo's voice smooth, she was convinced by the answer.
"Lie, I know who Yo, I also know So. Yo will never release the throne to So. Answer, tell me the truth!" Queen Yoo cries out sharply as she shakes Hae Soo's body.
"Enough! Stop ...!" Suddenly The Majesty has also been present at the same place. His stout hands seized Hae Soo's body standing beside him. Hae Soo is really frightened, unconsciously grasping the hand of The Majesty, she forgets to touch the hand of a ruler Goryeo.
"Mother can ask me why to ask her?" The Majesty gives a reprimand, he knows Queen Yoo very hate Hae Soo.
"Why do you have to tear down the decree written by Yo? Do you think I trust the truth?" Each time staring at Wang So, Queen Yoo always feel furious. Increasingly angry when accepting the harsh reality, an unwanted child is present even crowned king.
"I never tear it up? I do not know why Yo Hyungnim tore him, he left the last message, surrendered the throne to me, why should hesitate", The Majesty responded firmly. Hae Soo's grasp grew tighter, she had indeed hidden something that would change Goryeo's destiny forever. Changing the fate of Prince Wang So, Queen Yoo and the palace side.
"Yo have a son, why should give up the throne to you?" Prince Wang Jung could not believe it.
"If you still doubt, please come to other realms, ask the spirit of Yo Hyungnim", The Majesty  cynics, he knows Queen Yoo never wanted his presence in the palace, especially his position as king. The queen's mother has dragged Wang Jung to hate him too. He has decided to occupy the throne to win his whole life. He will not allow a mother to continue to persecute. "Better Yo Hyungnim abdicated. Or should I take it? Blood will spill. Why did the queen mother not hold the ceremony, pray for the late king? I will visit my queen mother as often as possible at the place of ceremony", The Majesty looked at Queen Yoo coolly, time to determine attitude.
"You do not deserve to call me queen mother", Queen Yoo's face is red, ear pain painful because of that title. When a child is crowned king, a mother will surely be called a queen mother", The Royal Majesty is firm as an invulnerable ruler.
"You stole the throne of Wang Yo!" Queen Yoo screamed.
King Gwangjong does not need to heed the scream, he has won a living destiny in a way. Even a queen can not stop him. The king leads Hae Soo away, no need to linger in this place, the air becomes hotter as if melted. There is no point in arguing with Queen Yoo, a greedy and defeated queen.
"Tell the family in Chungju I want to meet", Queen Yoo gives a command to Prince Wang Jung. Above the head of the sky suddenly darkened, Queen Yoo felt her chest tightness. Wang So real has defeated him.
While The Majesty  Wang So slowly grabs Hae Soo's hand until it arrives back in front of the throne's door. "Never fulfill Queen Yoo's call without my permission", The Majesty  gives a warning, he knows Queen Yoo never had any intention. In response Hae Soo nods her head,s he has done something stupid by fulfilling a queen's vocation. "Remember, you need a king's permission to fulfill anyone's call. I am responsible for your salvation. Understand?" Without waiting for the King's reply to the throne, Hae Soo intends to follow, but the prime minister hinders, a lady chief does not need her presence on the throne. King Gwangjong now fulfilled his right to sit back in his singles, listen to Ji Mong's report.
"Rumors, while believers, Kyung Chun Won Keun is supposed to be king. Secretary of State Park Young Gyu even thinks Wang So is lying about the king's last wish".
"One who does not believe in the right thing, I am King Gwangjong Wang So has the right to occupy the throne, never deserved to live longer. It is like a thorn in the flesh that must be broken. He is a traitor. Kill!" The Majesty the King looks very angry, he firmly utters the decree that shocks Ji Mong. The Majesty reveals his true nature. "The penalty for every traitor is dead. Capture all the followers of the late kings, maids, and soldiers residing in the Cheondeokjeon who doubt the decree of the successor to the throne. No one escaped, no one will escape", said King Wang So, he did not hesitate. He would not be able to live a wall with a traitor, an enemy in a blanket that could stab him in secret. In his place stands Ji Mong stunned, his eyes almost jumping from the eyelids. He never suspected The Majesty would act so firmly and cruelly to protect the throne. Is getting rid of a traitor with a death sentence? Secretly Ji Mong's hair curled up.
                                                                            ***
Minister Park rushes to meet Woo Hee, rumors whistle The Majesty orders the bodyguards to catch him, his life ends already. He still wants to get a glimmer of hope, he still wants to live. "Will my life end here?" The minister stammered. Who wished to know early in the day of death?
"Is not it true that the decree of the late King Wang Yo is a lie?" Woo Hee's voice is cold.
"Do I also have to tell the truth, you are spying on the 4th Prince who is now King Gwangjoing and Prince Baek Ah? Do you think I'll die alone?" The tone of Minister Park's voice threatened.
Woo Hee's beautiful eyes flashed, she knew that Minister Park was not playing games, his fate was now on the edge. The beautiful woman was quick to act quickly, her soft fingers grabbing the little knife hidden in a hanger, without much skill she swung her hand until the blade was immersed in the back of Minister Park, piercing the heart. The stout body of the minister staggered, his groans slashed, he never suspected the last day would come sooner than he expected. When Park  finally slams in a thud, Woo Hee takes a deep breath-a traitor deserves to be executed! Then Woo Hee's mouth stifles silence. Is not everyone entitled to have a secret? She still silences when reunited with Prince Baek Ah, the prince's hand grabs a worn-out hanger.
"Already using, better replaced", Prince Baek Ah said heartily.
"No ...." Woo Hee grasped the hanger again, the object using that did not need to be replaced, for storing personal memories.
"This thing is giving your parents?" Prince Baek Ah asks, Woo Hee nods.
"Looks like I have to do something I do not like by your parents", Prince Baek Ah never tired of staring at Woo Hee's face, he really loves this woman.
"What makes my parents unhappy?" Woo Hee asks back.
"Before getting married. We have to get you registered as a foster child of a good family ", it is not easy for Prince Baek Ah to mention this, but it must. He's never been able to lose Woo Hee. "Because I'm from Hubaekje?" Woo Hee's face darkened.
"My grandmother still remembers what happened in Gyunhwan. His family was murdered in front of him, the grandmother always did not want to deal with people who came from Hubaekje. However, it all happens before we are born. Besides, Gyunhwan has nothing to do with you. I just want to avoid the problems that may occur. I'm going to pilgrimage to the graves of your parents and apologize to them", Prince Baek Ah explains his plans.
On the other hand Woo Hee paused, reverberating the words of Minister Park, "If your relationship is revealed, Prince Baek Ah will also not be safe". Woo Hee took a deep breath, she was in a very difficult situation. She knew Prince Baek Ah was not playing games, how far she steps went further. Where is the end of the road?
"No problem for you?" Prince Baek Ah's voice softly.
"The King of Founders Goryeo killed my parents and my king killed your family. Is not this all a problem?" Woo Hee's worries are unstoppable, she is trapped into a long, unresolved old grudge. Even incandescent flames increasingly.
"The murder is not my fault and it's not your fault either. There is still a gap for both of us to be together. Unless you do not want my presence, we will never be apart. I will not let you go ", Prince Baek Ah is not pretending to say a word.
Woo Hee paused, her mind wandering far away.
                                                                   ***
General Park Soo-kyung looks at The Majesty King Gwangjong with sad, suddenly he felt his age getting older. Can he forgive The Majesty, every moment imagining the face of his beloved daughter, Park Seon Duuk and Prince Wang Eun. Sweet memories that have now been covered with blood, not easily abandoned son and daughter in the tragic. If the 4th Prince did not comply with King Wang Yo's request to slaughter a wondrous casting family. Park Seon Duuk will still be happy together with Prince Wang Eun, he can live a peaceful old age and serve the next king with a graceful chest. Can he be a general to a king who has slaughtered his girl and son-in-law? The general had weighed for days before venturing to the King's Majesty. "Thousands sorry My King, my age is getting older, health continues to deteriorate. Hometown call home. It was time for a general to resign, to pick up the old days. There will be another more formidable general to replace, Goryeo will remain victorious ", General Park Soo-kyung said cautiously, he has been confronted with a king who is authorized to do anything.
"The general still looks young and healthy, Goryeo needs a formidable general. Do not go .... " The Majesty asks, what will happen to Goryeo without a shrewd generals on the battlefield? Can he lose a general?
"The whole corner of the palace always shows the face of Park Seon Duuk and Prince Wang Eun, if The Majesty is General Park Soo Kyung who is left behind and always feels lost?" The voice held back sobs. General Park's eyes stared at the handsome face of King Gwangjong, he knew he would not be able to stare at the face any longer.
"General Park ..." the voice was arrested, he could see the grim face of the general. He had never intended to slaughter Prince Wang Eun and Park Seon Duuk, he did not fight personally. If King Wang Yo did not rule cruelly”, The King's Majesty's tongue was bitter, he knew the real reason a general resigned. Can he hold back? Can he block the peaceful step of a father who lost his beloved daughter?
 "I always believed Gwangjong would be a fair and wise king for Goryeo", General Park Soo-kyung saluted with a deep bow and resigned, leaving the palace. He never hesitated with his actions. There was a silence when General Soo-kyung's step was no longer audible on the instar floor. The Majesty  is stunned, what is a king without the loyalty of a general? Who will be ruled to the battlefield? Who will be the enforcer fortress when there is chaos? Long time The Majesty  is stunned, he does not even have time to defend himself in front of a general.
When Hae Soo comes, The Majesty g is still stunned. He must learn one important thing in organizing the government. The reason a generals are loyal to a king? He will be abandoned, for having robbed the lives of his children. "Anything wrong The Majesty?" Hae Soo asked, she saw an overcast hanging on the handsome face of a king.
"General Park has left, he can not forget Park Seon Duuk and Wang Eun, my hand has separated it. He does not want to always look at my face", The Majesty  took a deep breath. It turns out that a king can not be left alone, he needs a variety of loyalty. Hae Soo stares at the giddy face in silence. "Do you also want to know whose name was written on the decree of the late king? Do you think I stole the throne?" The Majesty asked, he was entitled to know Hae Soo's deepest hearts with regards to Goryeo's current throne.
"I never thought about it. There is no problem whatsoever in this case", Hae Soo replied.
"There is no one's name. There is no name written on the paper", The Majesty needs to state the truth. The late King Wang Yo never left a will, except for a blank piece of paper. "So I tore it up, before the mess. In one way I've taken over the palace. Now I am a king ", The Majesty did not hesitate to state the truth, he did not want chaos and bloodshed. Some time before King Wang Yo's death, he was ready to take power.
"The Majesty has done the right thing", Hae Soo has no answer but to justify The Majesty's actions. "Park Soo-kyung left me, Baek Ah regard me as king, no longer family. For Choi Ji Mong I'm just the oldest brother's death rowguard. Jung thinks of me as a master. Mom even thinks I'm a thief", The Royal Majesty complained, wearing a crown was not as easy as it appeared. Who really sustains him to be a king? Is it enough with an empty statement that is never written? Hae Soo pauses again, slowly her face becomes grim.
She was still silent when The Majesty returned, "It turns out your words are true, the throne raises fear and loneliness", The Majesty began to feel the heavy burden of a king, when not all parties give blessing. Especially the mother queen.
"I will never leave The Majesty", gently Hae Soo's hand grasping the hand of The Majesty, she sits next to King Gwangjong then rests her head. Within close proximity The Majesty King looked at Hae Soo's sweet face, he tried to believe the words of the lady. However, deep in the bottom of the heart appears a pinch of doubt. Is it true?
                                                                    ***
The next day Hae Soo moved to the Cheondeokjeon Palace, she occupied a private room as the king's lover. Chae Ryung, ladies as well as friends from the very beginning helped to move and move all the equipment. A pair of innocent eyes, amazed at the magnificent king's palace. "Agasshi has occupied a high position in Cheondeokjeon, may I ask for something?" The lady asks.
"What is your request?" Hae Soo asks back, every time looking at Chae Ryung's innocent face there is a soft thread that connects compassion, she always loves the lady.
"When the coronation of the new king, some of the ladies may be released, I also include a lady who will be released, must leave Damiwon," Chae Ryung's face looked grim.
"If you leave Damiwon we will rarely, can meet again. Where will you go?" Chae Ryung's grim face causes Hae Soo to stare. Can she part with this one lady?
"I do not know where to go. Can Agasshi help me stay in the palace? Please persuade the king ", Chae Ryung expressed her wish. For a moment Hae Soo paused, she never knew the deepest desires hidden in the recesses of the lady's heart, but there was no reason to refuse. Unconsciously Hae Soo nodded. Hae Soo also never knew, after expressing the wishes of Prince Wang Won had been waiting for Chae Ryung in front of the hallway.
"How?" The prince asked.
"Agasshi will persuade The Royal Highness", Chae Ryung's answer causes Prince Wang Won's face to look happy. He will still have a chance when Chae Ryung remains in Damiwon.
"Can not I live with The Majesty? I do not know when I can leave the Palace?" This time Chae Ryung begged.
"Chae Ryung, there's still a lot you can do to help me out here. When the time has come, I will get you out of the place", Prince Wang Won persuaded her, needing to convince a lady to stay in Damiwon for a wish.
                                                                   ***
 The 4th King Goryeo, Gwangjong sits on the throne, performing routine duties as a king. He had to face several requests, including Prince Wang Jung's request. This time the prince requests autonomy for the Chungju region, "So Chungju will become an autonomous region, independent territory?" The King asked.
"Yes, so it is",  Prince Wang Jung never believed in the contents of his torn will convinced Wang So to occupy the throne in a legitimate way. Can he still support a king by being part of Goryeo? Chungju Autonomy is one way out.
 "I also grew up as Jung grandson. Do your whole family also intend to oppose me, when I sit down to be king?" The Majesty looked deeply into Prince Jung's face. A sibling even dare to oppose, surely for the support of Queen Yoo. The Majesty began to feel the weight of rest.
"We must consider the opinions of other families, when a king does not even get support from his own family", Prince Wang Jung gave the reason. He is really incapable of giving the whole life to Wang So.
"Do you intend to break the family relationship?" The Majesty asks, he must prepare to lose, rule Goryeo without Prince Wang Jung, the ally who will decide the fate of Goryeo.
"If the true king's will is true, we shall soon know", declares Prince Wang Jung, without waiting for the prince's answer to resign.
Choi Ji Mong immediately read the circumstances, a king is not just crowned, sitting on the throne and then reign. However, it should get support and recognition from the family and the entire clan behind it, "We must do something to the Chungju Yu's family, otherwise the situation will become critical. The testament of the late king must indeed be proved or The Majesty must ally himself with a family that is as strong as they are", the star advocate advised.
"As it turns out to this day, even to the end I have never been considered his son", The Royal Majesty complained, never suspected that Queen Yoo really never wanted the presence, especially the position of a king. The right mother has the intention of getting rid of him. What exactly my mistake?
                                                                                 ***
In the kitchen of the palace Hae Soo and Woo Hee are providing herbal treats in the form of ornaments, but Woo Hee's face is cloudy, her eyes gazing deep at immeasurable distance. She had stared at an unforgivable dark day, finally regaining consciousness on the cooking, "The Majesty King will love this dish", something special for Woo Hee can cook with Hae Soo.
"Is not this gift too simple compared to", Hae Soo said, she intended to give something special to comfort the king.
"Soo .... if I do wrong to others for personal gain. Will someday come vengeance is not it?" Woo Hee does not answer, but asks something.
"Right, we should not hurt someone for the sake of saving private life. However, we also need not be dragged into grief until protracted. The last day has passed, though the scar on the hand remains an imprint. Everyone is entitled to freedom and happiness .... " Hae Soo did not finish her words, when her eyes stared into Woo Hee's face, the girl's blood was absorbed. Woo Hee's beautiful face holds a mystery.
Hae Soo was walking with some servants, but she could catch Prince Wook Wook's shadow as if he were waiting. Hae Soo knows, she must take the time, she orders the waiter to bring all her belongings into the room. Now she was alone with Prince Wang Wook, the handsome face of the Goryeo scholar was so grim, "You finally chose Wang So", the cold prince's voice said. That Wang So was crowned king, that Hae Soo was the king's lover had taken all his wishes. He was just a losing and lost prince.
"You think I'm a greedy person, wanting both, the throne and the love. Now, it turns out you are the king's lover. If you are Wang Wook, can you accept it with everything? Who's greedy?" Prince Wang Wook's face is as cold as his voice. Hae Soo's moment of silence loses words, as if she has never met a thousand years with Prince Wang Wook, a man who has been her life's hope. A man who can leave herself in the courtyard of the palace, under the rain, as she begs for the life of Sanggung Oh. How thin the boundary between love and hate, how vague the boundary between hope and despair. "The Majesty never left me, when I was only a beggar. He is willing to bear all the consequences when always with me, Hae Soo a poor lady ", finally Hae Soo find the right words.
"I never stop asking. Why do you always insist, I will never be a king?" Prince Wang Wook could not help himself.
"I never insist on it. However, the supreme star always shines beside Prince Wang So. King Taejo knows about it. There was nothing wrong with the Prince of the 8th. The laws of nature and the real destiny have said", Hae Soo replied, she never knew what the heart of Prince Wang Wook really was. The story with the Goryeo scholars has long gone.
"I never believed in a king's star, a meaningless star. What is that law of nature and destiny?" Prince Wang Wook looked away, the pain in the pit of the heart realized Wang So got both, the throne and the woman. He is only a prince who is banished from the majesty and power of a king. Is it true his destiny of life only got here? The 8th Prince walks back to the reading room. He looks at the bracelet Hae Soo has ever given, he once puts the bracelet to cover the wound on Hae Soo's hands, prompts him not to let go and gives a kiss on his forehead. Prince Wang Wook's memories floated back, as both walked on the snow, Hae Soo accidentally stepped on his footsteps and finally almost fell, because he deliberately made a wide move. Wang Wook helps by holding Hae Soo's hand to keep from falling. Prince Wang Wook remembered the words of Hae Soo, "There is nothing wrong with the Prince of the 8th. The laws of nature and the real destiny have said .... "All those memories and words now hurt him. Angry Prince Wang Wook grabbed the hammer, smashing the bracelet. All the memories and hopes end here. Who knows who he is? He must do something.
When Princess Yeon Hwa suddenly comes to the same place, Prince Wang Wook has found the words, "You will soon be queen?"
"Really? You get the way to that place?" Princess Yeon Hwa's eyes swell the beautiful. She barely believed Prince Wang Wook's words, but she had heard them. "Nobody can have everything in the world. Love or throne? Which one should you choose?" Prince Wang Wook asked back.
                                                                      ***
King Gwangjong and Hae Soo are now lovers who love each other on the throne. The king wrote: I waited by the lake, however, the clouds began to cloud.
Hae Soo grabbed the sheet of paper over and over again. Paper strands with the same writing. "Why should I write this much?" The Majesty asked.
"Write as much as you can write, one day The Majesty will understand", replied Hae Soo.
"You said you would give me something, for preparing your room, but all I received was herbal rice," The Majesty complained.
"Is not the rice hell out of nothing? I would have given Prince Baek Ah and Choi Ji Mong anyway".
Hae Soo smiled mischievously. "You can not think of anyone else, just me. You are mine", the smile on The King's face expands, he gets both, the throne and the beloved woman.
On the other hand Hae Soo is able to capture, behind The King's grinful smile to hide something. "Is there something happening today?" Hae Soo presses her worries.
"Why ask? We're not married yet, if you keep asking, I'll go all the way", The Majesty  still smiles.
"All day I have to wait. Can I still leave a job at Damiwon? Although not working alone, there are other things I have to do", Hae Soo begins to realize how exhausting the job is.
"Oh yes, and about Chae Ryung, is she really going to be released from Damiwon? She does not know where to go? Can not she continue to work in the same place?" Hae Soo has a good time to ask, is not she a king's lover?
"I never remembered Chae Ryung and did not know about it", The Majesty replied briefly.
“Chae Ryung's presence, the lady was a lot of entertaining ".
"Okay, she will keep working at Damiwon ", for a moment The Majesty paused, and as a matter of abruptly shifted the conversation.
"We must have children and raise them", deep in the heart of The Majesty King longs for children, he wants Hae Soo is his mother. Hae Soo looks at His Majesty's face uncertainly. Why is a king thinking so far? Is it true that she will give birth to a prince?
"Tomorrow the royal physician will visit, to check your health, a mother must be ascertained in order to give birth to a child", The Majesty the King has arranged a plan.
"We are not even married yet The Majesty has ruled a health check doctor for the preparation of birth?" Hae Soo looks nervous.
"We can get married on the day you want. I have even been waiting for him", The Majesty  sincerely with every say, meeting with Hae Soo, the days after that set a decision, he did not choose the wrong person. He will never be able to lose this girl.
"Marriage can happen after The Majesty proposes in the tower of hope", Hae Soo still remembers the place, a place that once made her wait with disappointment, the 4th Prince broke his promise, for a more important reason.
"I have almost no time to go to that place. Should a king apply for a girl in the hope tower to determine the wedding day?" The Majesty sighed.
"It turns out to be more complicated dealing with you than the government", The Majesty closes the conversation with the decision of the court physician to keep checking on Hae Soo.
The next day when the court physician visits to check Hae Soo's health, the old face looks moody. He finds it difficult to compose words, but Hae Soo insists, she has the right to know her situation, "Tell me the truth, whatever the state of my health?"
The physician noticed that Hae Soo's knee is now very weak. In a moment of silence, it is not easy for a physician to convey a very bad situation. It is a good thing for everyone not to know when the day of death comes. Does she have to say? The face of the court physician is getting more restless, the cold sweat begins to condense, he is in a state that is not easy. "When imprisoned then tortured, knee is badly injured and not treated properly. At a young age the feet can still run, but as the ages continue I can not guarantee. Is this foot still able to move?" The healer looked Hae Soo's face giddy. How long can a king's lover take?
"Well, I'll be more careful counting from today", Hae Soo consoled herself, in fact she was shocked, because her knee condition was so bad. She had to limp when she stepped, because the wound was incurable.
"And once sorry, this time about heart. When work is overdone or shocked, does the chest feel crowded? Was it ever breathless to faint?" The palace doctor asked again.
"Yes, ever", Hae Soo's voice weak.
"The suppressed despair strikes the heart. When the heart is weak, the human body also becomes weak. With such a heart condition, even the most skilful physician can not calculate how long a man's ability to survive?" The palace physician proclaimed the results with bitter, his voice almost whispered. When he stared at each other, he caught a vacuum on a pair of loving eyes of the king's lover.
"How long will I be able to survive?" Hae Soo sounds like a groan. She never expected the King's orders for a health check for the birth of a baby would bring a statement like this. How expensive is life? How could she miss thousands of days to be with a beloved lover? A moment of silence, even the wind seemed reluctant to rustle. However, Hae Soo does not want to cause the court physician to feel guilty. "I will be fine. Thank you for visiting for a medical checkup ". Hae Soo knows where to put restless feeling, she lumps two stones under a tree, closes hereyes, prays, "How much longer do I have? I'm only twenty years old. I will take care of my health so I can live with him longer .... longer... "As Hae Soo asked solemnly, suddenly Prince Wang Jung had stood beside her, asking.
"What prayer do you pray for? Have you asked Wang So to be King of Goryeo forever ", the words sounded cynical.
“No, I ask that the handsome and handsome 14th Prince to return to being a kindly companion", Hae Soo replied quickly .
"You once said, do not take sides with anyone. Apparently you betrayed, sided with the 4th Prince ", Prince Wang Jung looks annoyed. He is disappointed, that Hae Soo is now the king's lover.
"Is the anger already in place? Have you forgotten, the late King kills King Wang Mo. On the orders of the late king, Prince 10th and General Park’s daugther were killed. It is fate, that the 4th Prince finally becomes king ", Hae Soo always has a reason to answer.
"Maybe your words are true. However, all the misfortune occurred after So Hyungnim returned to Songak for the throne, everything was covered in blood. Wang So steals the throne. I'm afraid everyone will be in danger. Do you think you can be a queen?" Prince Wang Jung's face looked dark, he dragged the whisper of Queen Yoo's mother who felt stricken when Wang So returned to Songak and then crowned king.
"I never thought to become a queen", blood of Hae Soo absorbed. She is praying to live with THe Majesty forever. But being a queen?
"A queen is a beautiful and intelligent woman, having a great clan that can be the power of a king. Therefore King Taejo must have two queens as well as twenty-seven concubines from the extended family as allies to support his position. Are you able to live like that, one lover of kings between queens and dozens of concubines?" Prince Wang Jung has understood, the essence of the life of a queen, even though she lives as a woman in power as well as clad in wealth. Fighting the love of a king with other wives is not an easy thing even too horrible.
For a moment Hae Soo paused, she tried to deny the truth of Prince Wang Jung's words. However, when the king's eyes met his eyes looked away. He has been directly involved in the life of the palace. Prince Wang Jung's pronunciation is true. "Then what about your dreams? Riding camels in the desert and sailing in the ocean? Do not you still want it? If life in the palace no longer makes you comfortable, say, there is still a way out ", Prince Wang Jung gazed into Hae Soo's gentle face, the face of a king's lover who was in protection as long as he asked. Can he forget the face, the face sustained by a slender figure with extraordinary courage that once fought the swarms of pirate pirates and nearly wounded him. The face that never once disappeared from memory at the same time bring anxiety - to be a lover of the king means to allow yourself to be dragged along with the envy of the queen and all the concubines that can lead to death. Even the love of a king may not be able to save him.
"I will remember your words", slowly Hae Soo said after a long silence. She captures the sincerity in every word of Prince Wang Jung, the 14th Prince is not playing, he speaks one thing that will change lives forever. He will always remember correctly.
                                                                     ***
King Gwangjong Wang So was preparing to sit on the throne, when a eunuch conveyed the message, "The 8th Prince wants to meet", soon the shadow of Prince Wang Wook flasheili peoples.
"There is something to say?" The Majesty frowned, his eyes sharp as if to see the contents of Prince Wang Wook's heart.
"First, the Commander-in-Chief of 300,000 warriors must be appointed by vote. Second, the tax on agricultural land should be handled by the commander in question. Including the tax debt of the royal family, then The King will not sit on the throne alone".
"I must surrender the troops and the wealth of the palace? Do you intend to cut my wings. Is there a threat coming to you?" Declared the voice of The Royal Highness.
"If you want to keep your wings, is The Majesty willing to give up his heart? Hwangbo's family from Hwangju offer marriage to The Majesty", Prince Wang Wook has prepared the words. He has chosen a queen of Goryeo appropriately, the queen who will change also his future.
                                                                   ***
In different places Princess Yeon Hwa cynically visits Hae Soo's room, the king's lover. One visit the room owner never wanted. The princess always creates an uncomfortable atmosphere. "The room is very beautiful for a lover of the king", the voice is melodious and painful.
"Something to say, then Princess King Taejo is pleased to come?" Hae Soo does not want a longer visit, the presence of Princess Yeon Hwa cause sultry feeling. Since the first time she was not happy with this beautiful princess figure.
"I came not for a problem, but for the same thing we want", The beautifull princess looks smiling win.
"Is between us both ever involved debt accounts?"
Hae Soo tries to guess where the direction of Princess Yeon Hwa's conversation is, of course, not a good intention. "You can stay in this room as the king's lover. I mean I accept you as the king's lover, but you will never be a royal concubine. I will not doubt who is serving The Royal Highness day and night ", Princess Yeon Hwa's smile widened, she knew she had won. "I will not win a king's love, so I never want to. What I want is honor and recognition. I want to give birth to a crown prince so he can become king again. I will marry the Venerable King Gwangjong, so I will become a queen who has the authority to bear a crown prince ", laughter of Princess Yeon Hwa almost exploded. She glanced at Hae Soo triumphantly. She knew she would never win the love of King Wang So, but the position of a queen would change the destiny of living forever. History will record it as Queen Goryeo, her story will be written with gold ink as a ruler.
In her place stands, in a very close distance Hae Soo is still transfixed. She never wanted to get in touch with Princess Yeon Hwa, a princess who hated her and looked at her with one eye. She was just a poor lady, a noble girl who lost her memory. Now with the pride of the princess declaring her destiny to marry King Gwangjong, it means Princess Yeon Hwa will become a queen. She is the king's lover, and she always won the love of a king, but what does that mean? She's just a distracting fly for a tall queen with all the clan forces behind her. Hae Soo gently complains, her face turning pale like paper. The tongue is bleeding. In front of Princess Yeon Hwa's pride, she is nothing-not anyone?
                                                                        ***
As for the throne of conversation between The Majesty till continues. "If The Majesty marries Princess Yeon Hwa, all Hwangbo's family will be the covering and strengthen the king's position", Prince Wang Wook comes to the bidding, he knows the power of a queen who will influence the palace's deepest walls.
"You are trying to change the destiny of my life?" Secretly the chest The Majesty King shaken, married Princess Yeon Hwa? Since when did he dream that Yeon Hwa will be side by side on the throne as a queen?
"Did Your Majesty accept this offer?" Prince Wang Wook asked, his face calm, but his heart was covered with vengeance. Wang So snatched all the important things from his life, the throne and the woman.
"Now I am a king on the throne, but deep within me is hidden the howl of a wolf, if any other wolf howling", The Majesty replied firmly, he was not afraid of the offer or indeed the threat of Wang Wook.
"The Majesty was sitting on a chair which is not easy to obtain and not easy to maintain. From the throne it should be clear that the ruler's family is a double-edged sword. If a king intends to defend the throne, the support of Hwangbo's extended family is clearly needed", Prince Wang Wook made clear the purpose of his arrival.
"I have promised to marry another woman", replied King Wang So.
"Hae Soo? She can not be a queen".
"I will still marry her".
"Do the king remember? Hae Soo once refused to marry King Taejo by wounding her own hands. A woman who has a scar can not marry a king ", Prince Wang Wook made no mistake. On the throne The Majesty  paused, realizing the truth of Prince Wang Wook's words. Can a King Goryeo marry a woman with a scarred hand? The Majesty  looked away, the atmosphere became silent. He had dreamed of a day with the woman of his choice-a marriage day that would never come. The Majesty's face turned to stone-hard.
