Choi Dong Yi What?
Queen Inhyeon: I am now asking you a question….will you have the confidence for that child, Prince Yeoning whether are you willing or not to support your son to the throne as the Sovereign of this nation
Choi Dong Yi is dumbfounded
Choi Dong Yi: Queen Inhyeon! What are you implying by saying this?…Why are you asking me whether I will support Prince Yeoning to the throne…as the Sovereign of this nation. Mama…this…this is….
Queen Inhyeon: Suk Ui!…..
Queen Inhyeon affirms with her determination. Choi Dong Yi is shocked
Choi Dong Yi: Mama?
Queen Inhyeon: Therefore I am asking whether you are able to permit Prince Yeoning to become this nation’s Monarch.
Choi Dong Yi is shocked at what Queen Inhyeon is saying & how can this be possible
Choi Dong Yi: Mama, this is impossible..how can Prince Yeoning be possible become….
Queen Inhyeon: Prince Yeoning is the posterity of Cheon Na’s bloodline, therefore a Royal Prince of this nation..Suk Ui, there is no reason that exist that to why he can’t ascend the throne….Suk Ui
Choi Dong Yi: But however there is an incumbent Crown Prince is present & with this apparent situation, how can Mama say this?
Queen Inhyeon: therefore didn’t I have already mentioned that what if perhaps by chance that the Crown Prince Yun has no choice in succeeding the throne then under this circumstances…as in that moment what will be your decision?
Choi Dong Yi: Under what circumstance in situation that implies that the Crown Prince has no choice in succeeding the throne & what is that matter, Mama?…What is actually in that matter that Mama would derive a conclusion have say this remarks

Queen Inhyeon doesn’t take further than that
Jang Hee Bin a sour puss in Chwi Seon Dang. Jang Hee Jae tells that Si Gang Won is solely where Crown Prince has his education, how can they permit to allow Prince Yeoning to enrol there for his education there. Jang Hee Bin tells that Queen Inhyeon is making use Choi Dong Yi’s born son Prince Yeoning to threaten to waver Crown Prince Yun’s position that Queen Inhyeon wants to oust Crown Prince Yun aside to allow Prince Yeoning to ascend the throne. Jang Mu Yeol tells Jang Hee Bin that Prince Yeoning enrol to Si Gang Won for his education is reckon to be some concern but however to say the fact that this is the reason that this may oust Crown Prince Yun aside, will be a little over reacting to something groundless, as such merely petty matter can be seen to threaten Crown Prince Yun’s position
Jang Hee Bin rebuke Jang Mu Yeol for mentioned this as a merely petty matter then she emphasis that Si Gang Won is the place responsible where Crown Prince Yun solely received his education, how can there be a possibility to have another Royal Prince coming to attend then question Jang Mu Yeol that he doesn’t see or recognise that Queen Inhyeon has ulterior motive in suggesting & recommend the matter. Jang Hee Bin tells Jang Mu Yeol that no matter whatsoever that the Namin faction must prevent this from happening at all cost that they must not have Prince Yeoning enters a foot into the entrance of Si Gang Won & asked Jang Mu Yeol whether he is clear. Jang Mu Yeol acknowledged
Jang Mu Yeol leaves Chwi Seon Dang & queries that Jang Hee Bin is getting out of line & definitely getting way overboard, then question what is making Jang Hee Bin all work up in nerve wrecking jitters & being so unsettled then Jang Mu Yeol recalls the Jang Hee Jae near misses of letting the cat out of the bag indicating that might be something amiss in regards to Crown Prince Yun. Jang Mu Yeol recalls the scene that Jang Hee Jae was to delay Crown Prince Yun from taking a consort. Jang Mu Yeol’s opinion that they need to hasten to marriage in order to secure the Crown Prince Yun’s position by having posterity. Jang Hee Jae reminds Jang Mu Yeol that he just need to do as he is being told & not add comments… then Jang Hee Jae gets all work up with the return of Choi Dong Yi & her son & why they have to return during the moment when the Crown Prince is at his present condition. Jang Hee Jae shut her brother up from revealing the truth in his blabbers. Jang Mu Yeol could concluded that if perhaps there is something amiss & a problem that lies in regards to Crown Prince Yun. Jang Mu Yeol is beginning to have doubts & reluctance with the Jang siblings
Jang Hee Bin tells Jang Hee Jae that she is certain that Queen Inhyeon has learned & found out something about Crown Prince Yun’s ailment. Jang Hee Jae tells his sister that Queen Inhyeon may has merely suggest this in passing. Jang Hee Bin tells Jang Hee Jae that Queen Inhyeon did this with intent as Si Gang Won is the place where Crown Prince Yin sole received his education, then why is the reason to suggest that Prince Yeoning come to enrol into Si Gang Won, this is done as a precaution for the “what if”, the precaution that when it come down to the matter that Crown Prince Yun has no choice in succeeding to the throne that Queen is rendering an outlet for Prince Yeoning to receive the Royal education as the replacement. Jang Hee Bin tells Jang Hee Jae that they must find that missing female physician. They must know how much Queen Inhyeon has learns in the truth about Crown Prince Yun’s ailment. Jang Hee Jae assures his sister that he is sending people all over in search for the missing female physician & asked his sister to calm down her nerve or else if she continues in this stress, he is afraid that Jang Hee Bin may end up getting ill. Jang Hee Bin tells that this matter is driving her crazy that since Choi Dong Yi & Prince Yeoning return to the palace, she has not slept a wink in peace. Jang Hee Jae asked his sister that she can carry on being this way
In Injeongjeon Sukjong is happy to have a prodigy son. Sukjong test his son Prince Yeoning on the Doctrine of Mean since he has reads the classic then begin to asked his son about the text & its meaning
Jung Ryong (Doctrine of Mean) is one of the 4 great classic, which consist of the Analects of Confucius, Great Learning & Book of Mencius
Prince Yeoning describes in the essence Doctrine of Mean from the author, then Sukjong asked what is the meaning
Prince Yeoning: Ja Sa consider the virtue embodied in the doctrine of the Mean is of the highest order. But it has long been rare among people. The person who follows the mean is on a path of duty and must never leave it. A superior person is cautious, a gentle teacher and shows no contempt for their inferiors. They always do what is natural according to their status in the world. Even common men and women can carry the mean into their practices, as long as they do not exceed their natural order
Ja Sa (circa BC 481-402) was the author of Doctrine of Mean, the grandson of Confucius
Sukjong praise Prince Yeoning that he is correct …then asked that Prince Yeoning self study the classic himself. Prince Yeoning affirms that he did. Sukjong praise in front of Do Seong Ji that did he hear his son speaks that Prince Yeoning self study to be proficient & well verse in Great Learning & Doctrine of Mean. Do Seong Ji concurs that Prince Yeoning is indeed a prodigy that he has never been seen in his life before as Sukjong repeats that his son is indeed a genius. Sukjong tell that Crown Prince is god given intelligence. Crown Prince Yun announce his arrival in Daejeon. Sukjong welcome Crown Prince Yun. Prince Yeoning greets his brother as Crown Prince Yun send greetings to Sukjong then asked him to take a seat & praise Crown Prince Yun’s Chaek Rae that he has done well, that he summoned Crown Prince Yun to Daejeon is to render him praise. Crown Prince Yun thanked Sukjong for his praises. Sukjong tells that his Crown Prince Yun is intelligent & his younger brother is just as outstanding that today, Sukjong is happy that he can start to dance in jubilation. Do Seong Ji confirms that this is indeed Sukjong great fortune to have his 2 sons doing so well at his side. Sukjong laugh that he totally agree
Chaek Rae (Chaengnye) is Matriculation
Crown Prince goes through a few rites of passage. Matriculation, Coming of Age & Royal Wedding. It is because the crown princes of the Joseon dynasty were to be the successors to the throne, there were various rites of passage and ceremonies to be observed. The main rites of passage and ceremonies related to the crown prince were entering school, coming of age, & marriage. After becoming crown prince, a ceremony was held to commemorate the entrance of the crown prince into the Joseon dynasty’s premier educational institution, Sungkyunkwan (National Confucian Academy). Ceremonial drinks were offered to the tablets of the four sages, including Confucius, who appear in Daeseongjeon (Hall of Confucius) at Sungkyunkwan & the Crown prince bowed to the master in Myeongnyundang (Lecture Hall), where he would be receiving instruction on Confucianism. King Munjong was the first person to commemorate the matriculation ceremony at Sungkyunkwan as a Crown prince at the age of eight. The matriculation of the Crown prince was depicted as it was considered an important coming of age ceremony for “the future sun.”. & along with the matriculation, there was another coming of age ceremony called gwallye. The Gwallye was so named because the boy undergoing this ceremony symbolically became a man by tying his hair up and donning the hat called a Gwan. As opposed to the children of Sadaebu (scholar-official) who commonly underwent the gwallye ceremony before marriage between the ages of 15-20, Crown Princes normally underwent them between eight to twelve years of age, after the investiture ceremony. The crown prince then awaited his wedding ceremony after becoming a respectable adult through the Gwallye. The wedding ceremony took place not long after the Gwallye, usually between ten to thirteen years of age. The wedding ceremonies of either the king or the crown prince are recorded in the Royal Wedding Uigwe (Garye dogam uigwe) in their entirety. A crown prince was considered an adult and the rightful future king after completing the matriculation, coming of age, and wedding ceremonies. The exact date of his ascension to the throne, however, was not fixed because it was directly related to the longevity of the preceding king as like King Sukjong, who became king at the age of 14, there were Crown Princes who rose to be king at a tender age, whereas others ascended at a relatively late age, such as King Munjong, who took the throne at the age of 37
.Choi Dong Yi is standing out in her own right & no longer being shelter by Queen Inhyeon’s protection
Choi Dong Yi ponder over the Queen Inhyeon’s remark as then conversation continues when Choi Dong Yi comment to Queen Inhyeon about under what circumstance in situation that implies that the Crown Prince has no choice in succeeding the throne & what is that matter, Mama?…What is actually in that matter that Mama would derive a conclusion have say this remarks
Queen Inhyeon: Suk Ui?…The reason, it is not possible to say this to you now. When the time is right, I will disclose everything that is to know to you
Choi Dong Yi: Mama?
Queen Inhyeon. But however, at present moment, you just need to bear this in mind on matter of a fact that there is a possibility for Prince Yeoning to succeed the throne, moreover you definitely need to make compulsory & appropriate preparation in measure to anticipate the matter
Choi Dong Yi question to ponder what is it then that makes Crown Prince Yun has no choice in succeeding the throne that Queen Inhyeon can come out to have such frightful statement
Sukjong surprise to learn that the Royal Court has gather in the throne hall as Do Seong Ji confirms that they are here to petition their opposition against Prince Yeoning attending Si Gang Won with Crown Prince Yun & request Sukjong audience to the throne hall. Sukjong listen to Namin faction stage their petition for Sukjong to reconsider. The Namin faction tells that improper for Prince Yeoning to enter Si Gang Won for his education since that Si Gang Won is a place where the Crown Prince sole receive his education for kingship. Sukjong asked his Royal Court how many times must he explain many times about the matter. Sukjong tells that this is not for just the benefit for Prince Yeoning but for the sake of Crown Prince Yun. The Namin faction doesn’t think that is appropriate & asked Sukjong to reconsider. Sukjong explains that what is wrong for Crown Prince Yun to study in accompany with his younger brother who has innate such intelligence that will & may reap benefits to Crown Prince Yin as there may be normal practice that Crown Prince & Royal Prince has accompany study companions, why can’t Prince Yeoning take up this role. Jang Mu Yeol tells Sukjong that he dares to defer that the reason that Prince Yeoning is a Royal Prince. Jang Mu Yeol tells that having a Yanban Child & a Royal Prince to become as a study companion is 2 different issue matter, as this will have future implication that may be threats to waver the Crown Prince Yun’s position. Sukjong rebuke that Jang Mu Yeol is out of line, how can this matter threaten Crown Prince Yun’s position & now can they mentioned such absurdity

Saju or BaZi in Chinese is Four Pillar of Destiny. Four Pillars of Destiny, has been in practiced for centuries and has proven to be an effective tool in managing a person’s luck and fortune with an uncanny accuracy. The four pillars comprise the eight Chinese characters or BaZi which form the destiny codes of a person. The secret is to unlock the meaning behind these codes and gain insights into ourselves and our future. We are all born with a BaZi (natal chart) comprising these codes and also a set of luck pillars representing 10-yearly periods of our life. Together, they shape our destiny for better or worse.

Hexagram reading is alleged that in the time period of the Han dynasty (206 B.C. to 220 A.C.), the concept of the ‘five elements’ (i.e. metal, wood, water, fire, and earth) was adopted. Wen Wang Gua 文王卦 (the hexagram of Wen Wang) was thus developed afterward, and gradually other Chinese fortune-telling methods were created accordingly. General speaking, the hexagrams nowadays used for divination are mainly divided into three systems, the two conventional ones are either to explain the divination in accordance with the text of the I Ching, or to explain based on the image of the trigram and the line characteristics; the third one is Wen Wang Gua which converts all the lines into the five elements and explains their mutual reactions.
Mdm Yoon: What does this mean?
Mudang: Even if I read it, it will be deem useless, it is best that you take your leave, Manim
Mdm Yoon: What?
Mudang: It will not be long that death is be at bay, it will seen useless to read into this
Mdm Yoon: Death?..Who are you implying?
Silence is affirmative
Mudang: It will not be long in the near future, it will soon after when the fire that Manim has played will come to blaze & combust on you
