"Iseul!! I asked you where is Princess Kim Hyo Ra!!" The scream made Iseul's body tremble. His knees let go, causing Iseul to immediately bend his legs in front of Kim Won Shik.

The old man suddenly came without any notice. Usually Eunuch will shout, and tell if Emperor Kim Won Shik will come. In fact, Iseul didn't hear anything, except for footsteps which immediately startled Iseul. Meanwhile, Iseul is waiting for Kim Hyo Ra to return. And in fact, until midnight Kim Hyo Ra didn't come home.

And again!! What made it strange was that Emperor Kim Won Shik went around this pavilion and inspected each pavilion as well as the palace. Even though Iseul knew that it was not the task of Emperor Kim Won Shik, but the task of Dae Hyun.

"Your Highness Kim Won Shik, the Princess is calming herself down." said Iseul shaking.

"You think I'll believe you? I know you're working with Princess Kim Hyo Ra to cover this case. Actually you don't know if Princess Kim Hyo Ra is meeting with that young man again!!" said Kim Won Shik, gritting his teeth. His hands are clenched, his jaw hardens a sign that he is angry

"No, Emperor. I'm telling the truth, if Princess Kim Hyo Ra is calming her mind." Iseul said quickly.

This had never happened before. He knows very well who Kim Hyo Ra is, that woman will never leave the pavilion for any reason. And there is no such thing as calming down now. If the woman feels lonely, or needs a quiet place. Kim Hyo Ra will come to the fish pond behind the house, and also grow crops. Plant some vegetables, as well as flowers that she wants. In the past, Kim Hyo Ra always asked Iseul, or the guard of this pavilion, for help. But why was everything without any difference when Kim Hyo Ra rose from the dead?

"Dae Hyun whips Iseul until she tells the truth," said Kim Won Shik.

Iseul apologized, she retreated with a crawling motion. But quickly Dae Hyun took the whip brought by who when the trusted soldier who.

When the tip of the whip wanted to hit Iseul. A hand immediately pulled the whip with so much force. So that makes Dae Hyun almost fall.

Not only Dae Hyun who was shocked by what he saw. Kim Won Shik, Iseul and some soldiers were also shocked by what that person did.

"Princess Kim Hyo Ra...how come?" Daehyun said slowly. The man looked at Kim Won Shik who raised his hand. Asks Dae Hyun to lower his whip. "I'm sorry princess." he said and took off the whip.

Kim Hyo Ra who just came pulled the whip and threw the whip at random. She also looked at Kim Won Shik and Dae Hyun did not like it. The whip almost hit Iseul's body, if Kim Yoora was late.

"What do you want? Just come and riot in people's pavilions!! Can you be a little polite!!" shouted Kim Yoora angrily. "Don't just think you're going in and out of my pavilion! I also need privacy, where not everyone has to know what I'm doing!!" he shouted back.

Kim Won Shik and also Dae Hyun were surprised by the remark. Moreover, Kim Won Shik immediately clenched his fists in anger. Without saying much, Kim Won Shik chose to leave rather than having to argue and slap Kim Hyo Ra back.

Seeing Kim Won Shik leave, Kim Yoora smiled with satisfaction. Then looked at Dae Hyun who was still faithful in his place. Of course, Kim Yoora immediately chased the man away from him. And also brought that damn whip.

"Are you okay?" Kim Yoora helped Iseul to get up from her fall. Iseul shouldn't have to do that. And what Iseul should have done was obey Kim Yoora's orders instead of obeying Kim Won Shik's orders. She is indeed a King, but not worthy of respect.

"Princess Kim Hyo Ra, after all he is Princess Appa. And also the leader of the Daegu kingdom. Of course I have to respect him." Iseul explained.

"No need!! He's evil!! I just don't want to be his daughter."

Iseul took a deep breath and calmed Kim Yoora down. Ask the woman to go to sleep. It's late at night, and Iseul also knows that this princess must be very tired after meeting Min Young Jae.

"Tomorrow if you're still sick, just rest." said Kim Yoora.

"All right, princess."

The next day Kim Sun Hee was furious, when no one could find a teacher to teach a foreign language. The grumpy woman doesn't like it, if Kim Hyo Ra is one level above her. She just wants Kim Hyo Ra to always be under her. Because it's the right place for Kim Hyo Ra.

"Eomma, I don't want her to be greater than me. Eomma must find a way, so that woman is always under me!!" shouted Kim Sun Hee.

Jae Hwa massaged his temples dizzy. "Eomma still can't do much. You know Appamu is not angry because of Kim Hyo Ra's attitude. If Eomma adds another problem, it will be difficult for words."

Kim Sun Hee rolled her eyes lazily. This should be an opportunity for them. After all, if Kim Won Shik gets angry again because of Kim Hyo Ra's actions. It could be that Kim Won Shik immediately chased the woman away. Wouldn't that be much better? At least Jae Hwa and Kim Sun Hee don't have to make many plans for Kim Hyo Ra.

Kim Sun Hee thinks it's good. But according to Jae Hwa it's not good at all. She had to think about how Kim Won Shik's health would be when his daughter left the palace. And if Kim Hyo Ra leaves the palace, what is clear is that the woman will definitely get married soon.

"You know what will happen if Kim Won Shik finds out, if his daughter is married outside the palace? There will be a lot of demonstrations and commotion from the citizens and officials. It will cost us too, so we have to be careful in dealing with it." Kim Hyo Ra. She is different, not like she used to be"

What Jae Hwa said is true as it is. If that woman left quickly, it would all be over right then and there. While the residents here know, Kim Hyo Ra has a bad prediction. And assume that a woman's life is always filled with bad luck. That's why not many people want to be close or be friends with him.

"Then what should we do, Eomma?" said Kim Sun Hee curiously.

Jae Eve didn't know what to do either. Seeing Kim Hyo Ra who looks brave, makes Jae Hwa think that the woman is rebelling. With the rules made by Kim Won Shik. Maybe they should be quiet for a while, watching their son and father fight with each other. It would be much better than drawing up a plan. Plus Kim Hyo Ra is also close to a young man from Hwang. That's a sign that the war between Kim Hyo Ra and Kim Won Shik has started. And this is what Jae Hwa wanted all along. After Kim Won Shik abdicated, Jae Hwa was the one who would rule in the Daegu kingdom. Getting rid of many people who disobeyed him, including followers of Kim Hyo Ra and also Kwan Ji Woo.

"Don't do anything. We just need to be quiet, watch the father and son drama that is about to begin. And also the young man from Hwang." Jae Hwa said, smiling mysteriously. Likewise with Kim Sun Hee, who seemed to understand the meaning of a smile from Jae Hwa.
