(Since the day the Queen spent the night with the King, she has not only been inactive but also in a state of daze, and the she didn't eat much. Therefore, the court maid Yu-gong asked....)

"Are you sure all went well with His Majesty that night? You have been barely eating since."

"Am I that ugly?"

"Pardon?"

"What on earth did I do wrong? You can have this, Yu-gong. I do not wish to raise concern

by dismissing food all the time."

"Actually, I hear that His Majesty does not have an amicable relationship with his grandfather, Lord Sangheon. Rather than it being your fault, it could be that he is keeping his distance since your father is someone who Lord Sangheon trusts. That could be it."

"It is my father he dislikes, not me?"

"Forgive me, Your Highness. I just did not want you to blame yourself."

"That means he might change his mind depending on what I do."

"Pardon?"

"Thank you, Yu-gong! Now I know how to do."

(Thus, the queen invites Prince Jaeon and Scribe Jung to her Quarter and said...)

"So...I asked to speak to you both despite it being an inconvenience for you because you are His Majesty's closest friends and are close friends yourselves. I hope this doesn't make you uncomfortable."

"No, of course not. However, May I ask why you summoned us here, Your Highness?"

"Oh, well...I was hoping to ease His Majesty's mind from his worries regarding state affairs. Is there anything in particular that he likes? I thought you two would know. Anything will do. So if you could please tell me..."

(When the queen said that, Prince Jeon-un got shock. The Queen...the Queen really love the King! How can I do? Even though I feel sorry for you, I can't help you. Forgive me for not being able to tell the truth. With that thought in mind, he misrepresented what the king liked. When Scribe Jung heard this, he looked Prince Jaeon sprisingly, therefore, Prince Jaeon signal to him so understandingly, he also says the wrong thing and finally they said...)

"The King dislike the most is others talking about him behind his back like this. Therefore, the fact that we spoke about him......we urge you to keep it a secret, Your Highness. Please."

"I see, Of cause. Don't worry."

(When the two returned, the queen soon took action. The king was fond of flowers, so she picked up a bunch of flowers from the garden and carry them by herself. Even though the court ladies request to carry instead of her, the Queen didn't agree. Therefore, the court ladies can only say to be careful and they follow very closed to her because they know how careless their Queen and worry about her. Very soon, the Queen met the King on the way, however, the King only see a bunch of flowers first and didn't notice the Queen. However, when she heard the Queen greeting... she notices the Queen.

The king was watching the Queen who was holding a bunch of flowers and running towards him and she feel worry that the Queen would fall. Fortunately, the Queen didn't fall and reach near the King and she greet again the King and then, the fruits in her hand fell on the ground. So, Bok-dong have to pick up quickly. The King wonder why the Queen suddenly holding a bunch of flowers and fruits...So...)

"My Queen, what is all this?"

"I brought you some flowers because I heard you like them."

"Some" flowers? Thank you."
