As tensions escalated, General Yoo's alliance with external enemies grew stronger. The Choi kingdom found itself isolated and vulnerable, making it easier for the conspirators to carry out their plans. The once-mighty army, now divided by doubt and suspicion, struggled to maintain control.

One fateful night, Queen Ji-Yeon uncovered evidence of the betrayal, including secret correspondence between General Yoo and the enemy leaders. Armed with this damning information, she confronted her husband, King Choi, who was torn between loyalty to his blood and duty to his kingdom.

In a heart-wrenching confrontation, King Choi confronted his brother, demanding an explanation for the treacherous plot. General Yoo, fueled by ambition and resentment, revealed his true colors. The kingdom he once swore to protect now lay at the mercy of his betrayal.

With a heavy heart, King Choi ordered the arrest of his brother and the conspirators. The once-proud Choi family faced the harsh reality of betrayal and the devastating consequences it brought upon their kingdom. The people, once united, were now divided by distrust and fear.
