Episode 3: “I Am Standing Behind You”

The Crown Prince arrives just aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith time to save Ra On, and he persuades the Princess to forget everything.

Ra On fails to recognize that the man she knows aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith the young master-warrior-eunuch is actually the Crown Prince.

Later on, aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith Ra On’s despair, she qualifies aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith a eunuch. She wants to directly confront the Crown Prince aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith it, but Yi Yeong (whom she calls “Silver Spoon”) and Byung-yeon stop her.

Ra On is assigned to serve aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith the residence of Consort Park — someone close aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith the Crown Prince ever since his mother died seven years ago.

Consort Park asks Ra On to give her letter aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith the King. But Ra On runs aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith trouble at the King’s quarters. Seeing her predicament, Kim Yoon-sung takes her some place.

Consort Park later on asks Ra On to burn all her letters and the King’s replies. But just as she is about to burn the last reply-letter the King sent, Byung-yeon quickly stops her.

The Queen (Kim Yoon-sung’s aunt) slaps Ra On for insisting on bringing Consort Park’s letter to the King. But despite that, Ra On still slips the letter aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith the petitions sent to the King.

The King’s blank reply-letter is actually written aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith apple vinegar, and as Byung-yeon shows Ra On, the characters appear when the letter is held aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith a flame.

Through Ra On, the King and Consort Park are reunited.

But the King is tormented aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith nightmares of 2,000 people dying because aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith him, and so he tells Yi Yeong that he will abdicate. Yi Yeong agrees to be the Crown Prince Regent, but insists that aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith times of difficulties, the King must act toward him just aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith a father would.

(aboutamongasbyinintolikenearoftowith a flashback, Yi Yeong remembers how the King refused to do anything despite knowing that the Queen was murdered. Now, the King says that doing nothing has been the only way to protect everyone he loves.)

Ra On finally recognizes that the man she calls “Silver Spoon” is the Crown Prince.
