At the palace, Gyong-nae and Hong Ra-on face death as punishment for betraying the monarchy. As Crown Prince Lee Yeong convinces to give them a chance to explain, a pack of rebels suddenly attempts to help the two escape their faith. While everyone is pointing swords, Byung-yeon who was initially protecting Lee Yeong draws his weapon to the Crown Prince.
