"I also feel that energy through Princess Eon Jin when I first saw her." She said.  The Queen Dowager got confused. "She's special Your Royal Highness..  I didn't tell this to anyone for her safety.  Princess Eon Jin is a kind and warm lady that's why I decided  to hide what I felt that day,  I'm  sorry. " Yi Shil said.  The Queen Dowager got surprised  even Master Kim. "You mean,  Princess Eon Jin has an ability that we didn't  know?" The Queen Dowager said. "Yes, Your Royal Highness... That's what I sense... But I don't really know what is it and how she had it."She said. 

Without them knowing there's someone accidentally heard their conversation. "So, it's true... That you're special Princess Eon Jin. "Prince Yu Shin whispered and smirked.

I told you that maybe there's  someone cursing you that's  why you always had sick, Your Highness." Wol Sook said. "But you didn't  believe me... " She added.  Eon Jin got shocked as she couldn't believe on what happening right now while Tae Pyung clench his fist and hold Eon Jin in her hand. "We need to leave now,  Your Royal Highness...  The Queen Dowager is waiting  on us. " He said.  "Arasso,  you may go.. " Tae Pyung said. 

Tae Pyung hug Eon Jin when the guards leave. "I hope you will be okay now... " He whispered. Eon Jin smile and tap his back.  "Don't  worry... I will get better now... " She said.
