This story will start on when Cheoljong was protecting Hwa Jin from being killed. Let's all pretend that the Dowagers are decent people
(So Yong's POV)
Look at this King go, he would let himself get hurt just to protect his lover. How lame. So Yong thought. "She is not the one who should be beheaded." Cheoljeong said. "Your Majesty, please." Hwa Jin pleaded. He is so cool, but not as cool as me. So Yong said to herself. "Grand Queen Dowager. Please spare Royal Consort Eui." So Yong said while positioning herself in a kneeling position. "It is not her fault nor it is someone's." She followed. "Then, if it is not her, then who?" The Grand Queen Dowager asked angrily. "Ho-honestly, I wanted to take my own life." So Yong admitted. "What?! Why would someone take their own life the day before becoming Queen? What is the reason." The Grand Queen Dowager said with even more anger. So Yong took out the red cloth from her pockets and said, "This is the will that I carry around with me, even before the accident. This is my suicide note." So Yong answered. The King and the two Queen Dowager were shocked with this confession. "It is not her fault, Her Highness, so please spare her." So Yong continued. "You still have not told anyone the reason." The Grand Queen Dowager asked with a sense sadness on her tone. "The reason I took my own life is—." Just as So Yong would answer, Hwa Jin fainted.
"Hwa Jin-ah." The King exclaimed. The King pushed So Yong in front of everyone to the side which made her lose her balance. Cheoljeong immediately picked-up Hwa Jin and brought her to her room. "Bring me the Royal Physician." He said to the Head Eunuch who was following him and ignoring the crowd behind him. The Queen who scraped her hand from the push, composed herself but wih tears forming on her eyes and answered, "You have already seen my reason." She gave a painstaking smile towards the Grand Queen Dowager, stood up, bowed, and left the open area.
The Queen was followed by her court maid, court lady, and Byeong In to her quarters. Arriving her quarters, she gestured her followers to not bother her. They all bowed and she closed the doors. She let out a sigh and laid on her beddings. She wiped the teardrop trickling down her cheek. "What, why am I crying." She asked herself. The tears continue to flow as she cried softy to not bother her servants. "I must be jealous of Cheoljeong, ha! That must be it. That bastard." She lied to herself as she continued to cry. "This damn woman, why won't she let me leave this body, now I'm feeling her feelings." She scolded herself. "Ahh, whatever." She said as she continued to cry herself to sleep while covered by her blanket.
