"Wol Sook, Is Lady Su Jin is okay? I heard she didn't go to Princess So Hee for today." Eon Jin said.  Wol Sook slightly tilt her head. "I don't know,  Your Highness. Maybe she and Minister Woo Sung is at the war that's why she's not in a mood to teach the Princess." Wol Sook said jokely. Eon Jin look at her intently and Wol Sook immediately stop her laughter.

"She's been so quiet this passed few days..." Eon Jin said. She was about to go when someone call for help.

"Help!oh god Lady Su Jin!" The court lady shouted.

Why you leave her all alone, you know her conditon,  right?!" Woo Sung shouted. Hye Ri couldn't speak because for the first time Woo Sung got angry to her. "Oppa... Calm down.. Please don't get mad at her..." Eon Jin said. Woo Sung took a deep breath while holding Su Jin's hand tightly.

"She has a condition that no one can cure her. I'm sorry for being angry Im just...  I'm just so worried about her." Woo Sung said. "A condition? She has a sickness?" Eon Jin said as she was so shocked. Woo Sung nodded. "Her body suddenly gets weak and her heart follows." Woo Sung said.

It's been days since you recovered to your sickness." Wol Sook whispered. "Aishhh! Just be silent, Wol Sook." She whispered. "But Your Highness.. " Wol Sook protest. Tae Pyung heard them, "Eon Jin..." He said in his serious bariton voice. 

"I can't let you do that, Your Highness..." Woo Sung said. "She's important to me but I can't let you sacrifice your health. I know she will be okay soon..." He added. "But Oppa...  Su Jin is unconscious right now, please.... Let me help her. She's important to me too. I'm her friend I don't want to see her like that." Eon Jin said.
