"Finding Mi Joo"
Side story
Woo Sung is standing at the door while looking to Eon Jin who is bored all day inside her quarters. "Aishh..." Eon Jin said and rest her head to the table. "How long did I wait here? I miss to walk around outside..." She said to herself. "Oh at the forest! I miss to search for some medicinal plants, haist..." She added as she pout her lips.
Woo Sung couldn't control his laughter while watching her. He saw muk on his cage. He walk towards to it and take out muk from his cage. Woo Sung smile as he walk towards to Eon Jin.
Eon Jin got startled when she saw muk on the table. She look up and saw Woo Sung is the one who's holding it. "Oppa..." She said. "You seem so bored, Your Highness... So how about you play with Muk..." Woo Sung said. Eon Jin smile with her pair of eye smile and take Muk from him. "Muk... I'm sorry I forgot to open your cage..." She said to her rabbit. Woo Sung seated opposite from her. "Why you put Muk inside the cage?" Woo Sung asked. Eon Jin look at him and try to control her laughter. She come closer to Woo Sung, "The Crown Prince is scared of him. He's afraid to rabbit. Don't tell this to anyone, Arasso?" Eon Jin whispered.
When Tae Pyung is arrived he saw them in that kind of position. Eon Jin is whispering something to Woo Sung while Woo Sung is smiling. Tae Pyung smile faded when he recall what his uncle told him a while ago about the Crown Princess and his cousin, Woo Sung. He clench his fist as his jealousy is started to get aroused.

Eon Jin is continue to feel exhausted day by day because of her pregnancy. She also had her mood swings and sensitive on the food she eats and smell. Tae Pyung get worry when Eon Jin still lying on their bed. "Eon Jin, are you okay?" Tae Pyung said. Eon Jin turn around to look at him and she let out a small smile for him not to worry. "I'm okay... I'm just feel so dizzy and I'm about to vomit everytime I try to stand up." She said. Tae Pyung hold her hand and caress her face. "Physician Kwon told me that this is part of my pregnancy so nothing to worry about, Your Royal Highness..." She said. "I'm sorry if you need to go through that, My Princess... It's been so hard for you this pregnancy stage." Tae Pyung said. Eon Jin pinch him on his nose as she's smiling. "Yah! Don't say that... Our baby will hear you... I'm okay especially if you kiss me, Your Royal Highness..." Eon Jin said and let out a peal pf laughter. Tae Pyung smile widely and adjust his face to kiss her. "I love you, Eon Jin..." He whispered while looking at her eyes. Eon Jin hold his hand and put it on her chest where her heart is located. "I love you, Tae Pyung... You're the only one who hold this heart forever..." She said. Tae Pyung smile and hug her. Her words, make his mind to feel at ease.
"Wait on me, I'll promise I'll be back after the meeting with the ministers and I'll take you on a walk to the market and to the forest.." Tae Pyung said. Eon Jin eyes got widen and she feel so excited. "Really??" She said. Tae Pyung nodded. "thank you, Your Royal Highness... I've been so bored here inside..." Eon Jin said with her puppy eye. Tae Pyung pinch her on her cheeks. "I know... Just be patient, My princess... This is for your own safety and to our baby as well." He said. Eon Jin nodded, "I know..." She said. Tae Pyung kiss her on her forehead and he stood up. "I'll be right back, Arasso?" Tae Pyung said and Eon Jin nodded happily.
Meanwhile, some rumors spreading inside the palace without them knowing. A rumor that will tested their love for each other in the future.
Tae Pyung is silently listening to some of the appeals of the Ministers at the central hall. He's with King Tae Shin. He's unknowingly frowning while looking to Minister Min and the King notice it. The King gave signal to chief Eunuch to tap Tae Pyung. "Your Royal Highness.... You've been looking to Minister Min the whole time, is there something wrong?" Chief Eunuch said. Tae Pyung look away as he trying to control himself. "Nothing..." He said.
When the ministers left, the King invite him to have some tea at the King's quarter. "Crown Prince, how's the investigation about the killing attempt on the Crown Princess? Is there any updates?" The King said. Tae Pyung look at his father as he nodded. "Abeonim... We suspected Minister Min is behind it. But before I reveal it to the public, we have to find Mi Joo first, she's the younger sister of Mi Deok." Tae Pyung said. King Tae Shin is looking at him with puzzlement. "Waeyo? What's important to that girl?" He asked. "The Crown Princess believe that girl is in danger. She's been captive by Minister Min and we don't know where he hide her." Tae Pyung said. The King clench his fist. "He's heartless... Son, you have to find her as soon as possible so we can arrest Minister Min immediately. So the Crown Princess and your baby will be safe." The King said. "Yes, Abeonim... I will..." He said.
On the other hand, Eon Jin is waiting to Tae Pyung outside their quarter under the cherry blossom tree infront of it. She was busy watching the leaves fall from the tree and how the wind blows it when Woo Sung approach her. "You look so happy today, Your Highness..." He said. Eon Jin turn around to face him and she's smile. "The Crown Prince told me that he will walk with me at the market and at the forest today... I'm so excited to see the outside, Woo Sung Oppa..." Eon Jin said. Woo Sung smile as he watch her smile. "That's good to hear... I know how you miss your life before." He said. Eon Jin smile, "Yes, You're right... But if I'm going to choose, I will still choose my life right now." She said. Woo Sung look at her. "I know, it's not the same just like before, but.... I feel much happier right now with Tae Pyung, Oppa... Especially now, we're having a baby." Eon Jin said and let out a peal of Laughter. Woo sung smile and happy for her. "I'm glad that you're happy and still see the positive despite the trials that you are facing right now, Your Highness..." Woo Sung said. "You're still the same... The Lady Eon Jin that I met before... Please don't change Your Highness..." He said. Eon Jin look at him and she smile.
Without them knowing, Prince Yu Shin is watching them from a far. "That's right, stay closer to each other..." Yu Shin said.

"Maybe Lady Sora lost her way, but maybe someday she will miss the time she's with you and she will accept that
We love each other." He said. Eon Jin let out a small smile, "I hope so...." She said.
"Your Royal Highness... Let's go to the cave and I will show you my hiding place inside of it." Eon Jin said. Tae Pyung look at her with puzzlement. "Hiding place?" He said. Eon Jin smile excitedly, "Yes, Your Royal Highness... Only me, Wol Sook and Woo Sung Oppa knew about it. He built a room for me inside the cave." Eon Jin said.
