Early in the morning Mei and the others were in a sour mood. They had been attacked by some poor farmers the night before and Soo ho had the nerve to blame her just because she wouldn't let him attack the farmers.
"The princess wants to speak to us, I'm sure it's to scold us for what happened last night. This wouldn't have happened if the three of you had let us attack them" Soo ho said.
"Quit complaining you spoilt little rich boy, couldn't you tell they were hungry and poor? They have families to feed and they were desperate how could you want to attack helpless people?" Mei retorted. Soo ho groaned and walked out. Mei sucked her teeth and frowned, he didn't understand the needs of the people. Sun woo pat her on the head and walked out. Mei followed him out "I'm still angry at you, big jerk" she said. Sun woo poked her head "I'm sorry"
The princess looked cold as usual and Mei could already imagine what she was going to say.
"This is all your fault, how do you intend to fix things?" She would say. Mei had already prepared a whole lecture on how the princess needed to look at the most important part of the whole situation, the hungry people.
"I will not go back to the capital" the princess said .
"But your highness we are going to Baekjae for amity we cannot go without gifts. Besides we do not have any food" Soo ho said.
"The king of Baekjae's birthday is in four days and the crown prince of baekjae is very ruthless, he might decide to attack Silla to celebrate the kings birthday so we are going to Baekjae" princess Sook myung said.

After two days they finally arrived in Baekjae. When they got to the palace, the crown prince was eating.
"I am princess Sook myung of Silla. I have come to clear up the misunderstanding between us" princess said. The prince ignored her greeting and kept eating.
"What's this is he ignoring us , this is not right" Soo ho mumbled and was about to say something when Jinheung held him back. "Hold it in" he whispered.
"I shall wait until you finish eating " princess Sook myung said.
"Do as you wish the prince said without even looking up"
"How rude, this is no way for royalty to behave, he could at least offer the princess a place to sit down " Mei whispered. Jinheung squeezed her shoulder and she let out a silent breath.
They stood there waiting until the prince finished his meal, then he looked at them and motioned for the princess to step forward.
"So what have you brought?" The prince asked. Mei was completely shocked by the prince's behaviour, it was disgusting.
"You came to baekjae looking for amity, you must have brought gifts that would peak my interest"
"I came representing Silla and I would like to talk to you in private" the princess said.
While the princess and the prince went inside, the others went outside to wait.
