Tayang: 9-Dec-2009 16:30 WIB

Memacu kuda sekencang-kencangnya, Yushin (Uhm Tae-woong) berhasil lolos dari kejaran Alcheon (Lee Seung-hyo) dan Imjong (Kang Ji-hoo). Pulang dengan tangan hampa, Alcheon memberanikan diri bertanya pada Eulje (Shin Goo), namun sang penasehat raja hanya bungkam.

Sadar kalau apa yang dilihatnya sangat penting, Chilseok (Ahn Kil-kang) langsung melaporkan ke Mishil (Go Hyeon-jeong) kalau putri bungsu Raja Jinpyeong (Jo Min-ki) ada di Seorabol. Ucapan itu keruan saja membuat Mishil kaget, namun Sejong (Dok Go-young) menyangka bahwa apa yang dilihat Chilseok hanyalah halusinasi.

Barulah ketika Chilseok menyebut putri tersebut bernama Deokman, semua langsung terkejut terutama Mishil, yang langsung meminta semua yang hadir : Sejong, Seolwon (Jun Noh-min), Misaeng (Jung Woong-in), dan Hajong (Kim Jung-hyun) untuk tidak bicara sepatah katapun karena dirinya perlu konsentrasi untuk memikirkan langkah selanjutnya.

Gagal mendapat penjelasan yang memuaskan, Eulje (Shin Goo) berusaha mencari tahu tentang apa yang terjadi dengan menginterogasi Jukbang (Lee Moon-shik) dan Godo (Ryu Dam). Begitu melihat Sohwa, yang meski masih belum bisa bicara namun ekspresinya sangat kentara begitu nama Deokman disebut, Eulje langsung bisa menebak apa yang terjadi.

Berhasil menghentikan kurir yang dikirim oleh Yushin, Eulje harus berhadapan dengan Putri Cheonmyeong (Park Ye-jin), yang marah besar saat tahu sang penasehat berusaha mencelakai Deokman.

Dengan wajah serius, Eulje menyebut bahwa apa yang dilakukannya adalah demi mempertahankan kekuasaan Raja Jinpyeong. Siapa sangka, ucapannya soal identitas Deokman yang sebenarnya terdengar oleh sang raja, yang kebetulan datang ke kediaman Putri Cheonmyeong. Bisa dibayangkan, bagaimana marah dan kagetnya Raja Jinpyeong.

Begitu mendengar kalau Sohwa ditahan di bagian interogasi yang dikuasai Eulje, Mishil memerintahkan Seolwon untuk mengambil paksa sang dayang istana dengan cara apapun. Tidak cuma itu, ia juga meminta seluruh jajarannya untuk mengawasi tindak-tanduk pihak yang dekat dengan Deokman untuk mengetahui keberadaan sang nangdo.

Sadar kalau pihak yang mengincar Deokman adalah suruhan Eulje, yang bertindak tanpa persetujuan Raja Jinpyeong, Yushin mengutus anak buahnya Daepung (Park Young-seo) untuk meminta bantuan Kim Seohyeon (Ju Sung-mo).

Siapa sangka, tak lama kemudian Kim Seohyeon dikunjungi oleh Eulje yang meminta dua hal pada sang ipar raja : membawa pulang kepala Deokman. Sebagai imbalannya, Yushin bakal dinikahkan dengan Putri Cheonmyeong yang memang memerlukan pendamping.

Perseteruan antara kubu Seolwon dan Eulje tidak bisa dihindari ketika balai interogasi diserbu dan Sohwa bersama Jukbang-Godo diambil paksa. Dengan santai, Seolwon menyebut Sohwa sebagai wanita yang dicurigai sebagai mata-mata kerajaan Baekje sehingga Eulje tidak bisa berbuat apa-apa.

Dalam pelarian, Yushin dan Deokman (Lee Yo-won) yang tengah bersembunyi di sebuah gua bertemu dengan seorang pria eksentrik. Pria tersebut, yang bernama Bidam (Kim Nam-gil), ternyata mendapat tugas dari gurunya untuk mencari tanaman jahe liar untuk mengobati penduduk dari wabah yang tengah melanda.

Perkenalan Yushin dan Bidam dimulai ketika sang hwarang yang kelaparan meminta sepotong ayam bagi dirinya dan Deokman. Sebagai imbalannya, Bidam meminta ikat kepala Yushin yang berfungsi sebagai tanda pengenal klan Kembang Naga.

Setelah membawa Deokman ke tempat yang aman, Yushin menemui ayahnya Kim Seohyeon. Siapa sangka, sang ayah tengah bersiap untuk menuruti perintah Eulje untuk membunuh Deokman. Sadar kalau nyawa Deokman dalam bahaya, Yushin langsung pergi.

Dugaannya benar, gubuk Deokman telah dikepung oleh segerombolan pria berpakaian sipil. Siapa sangka saat keadaan semakin genting, muncul Bidam yang ternyata lebih dari sekedar pria biasa.

Moon Noh tells that Bi Dam has never show mercy & compassion to any humans & Bi Dam will go on the killing spree of he can’t hold his anger in.

Deok Man already wish to give up everything although she doesn’t know what she is giving up. People are dying because of her. It is already bad enough that her mother died in the quest. Deok Man feels that the same fate will come to Kim Yu Shin just as her mother did in the attempted to save her, they died.

Moon Noh leaves & Kim Yu Shin is left to ponder what moon Noh meant. Deok Man went to the medicine store & took a look at the bag Bi Sang. Deok Man said why looking at the bag to said whether she should just disappear from this earth

Bi Sang is Chinese white arsenic. It is also known as arsenous acid or arseni Trioxidum, These preparations are all of similar therapy & are antiperiodic, antiseptic, and alterative.

In general, it may be said that moderate doses of arsenic are indicated when there is defective nutrition with deposits of low or imperfect albuminoid material. Its antiperiodic influence is marked, but it should not be employed in doses of any size where there is irritability of the nerve centers of an acute character. In small doses arsenic is regarded as a vital stimulant, and is used in states of debility, exhaustion, and restlessness, and where burning pain and prostrating diarrhea exist. Small doses are applicable in the degenerative changes of aged persons, bronchitis with burning expectoration, irritative dyspepsia, cirrhosis of the liver, reflex vomiting, some cases of chronic diarrhea, and in skin rashes occasioned by indigestion. Arsenic was widely use as a chemical warfare in ancient China Other known poison to have been use cinnabar (mercury), realger (arsenic), green vitriol (copper sulphate), lodestone. It medicine there is always a fine line between cure & poison. Everybody knew what happened to Alexander the Great

Bi Dam takes Kim Yu Shin & Deok to the local administration building. Kim Yu Shin asked why would there be a jail in such a remote village. Bi Dam said that it was a holding area for hill bandit before transfer, but due to the plague it had been apparently been abandoned. Bi Dam said that his teacher plans to treat this place as an isolation area for the seriously ill, so Bi Dam asked Kim Yu Shin & Deok Man to clean the place up to accommodated that patient. Kim Yu Shin asked for the question of the usage of the place as Bi Dam said that they have no choice with the circumstances at hand, they need somewhere to put the patient. Bi Dam said that they need to earn their keep for their meal ticket by doing chores

Kim Seo Hyeon is informed that Seol Won Rang is seen within the vicinity. Kim Seo Hyeon is surprise that Mi Shil has made her move on the matter. Kim Seo Hyeon tells his vassal that Deok Man must not fall in the hands into Mi Shil. Kim Seo Hyeon would rather have Deok Man killed then Mi Shil gets hols of Deok Man. Bi Dam comes back to see that Deok Man & Kim Yu Shin finished cleaning up the area. Kim Yu Shin asked Bi Dam what other chores he wants them to do. Bi Dam thinks that the straw bedding is a little too much in the jail & asked to have it by half. Kim Yu Shin went in to deal with the matter & Bi Dam casually close the jail door behind him & padlocked him in. Deok Man & Kim Yu Shin surprise by Bi Dam’s action. Bi Dam points a knife at Deok Man & said that she needs to be tied up. Bi Dam needs to do this as he know Kim Yu Shin’s sword’s skill is heavy handed

Bi Dam ties up Deok Man around a tree as Kim Yu Shin demands an explanation. Bi Dam is sorry about the matter as Deok Man asked who has asked Bi Dam to do this. Bi Dam said he doesn’t know their identity but he will enquire for her. Bi Dam asked Deok Man not to think this matter is unfair as she may able to save 200 people’s lives in the process. Deok Man ponder on the matter as Kim Yu Shin asked her to find a way to escape her ropes. Deok Man thinks that this is the best way to go about it. If she falls into Mi Shil’s hand, death is not instant but it may ripple the effects to King Jinpyeong & Cheon Myeong but if she falls into King Jinpyeong’s hand, death will be instant, it will be the most fortunate relief that she came to Gyerim to die. Deok Man tells how many people dies for the sake & is deem fruitless in their effort to keep her alive. If she survive the perils she bring more harm than good

Kim Yu Shin asked Deok Man to have courage & not to lose hope on the matter & have strength. Deok Man asked where she should reap that strength from when people including her birth parents is out to get her & want her dead. Deok Man is already immune to hearing this strength & deem hopeless. Deok Man doesn’t want to listen to anymore. Deok Man recalls Bi Dam telling her that she can save 200 people if she surrenders herself. Bi Dam meets Seol Won Rang to said that he has Deok Man & Kim Yu Shin & asked that Seol Won Rang to abide by their promise

Seol Won Rang whisper to Bi Dam to asked that they need to prepare to bring Deok Man alive & make the necessary arrangement. Bi Dam goes to enquire who are they actually as they don’t look local. Bo Jong thinks that Bi Dam is disrespectful towards Seol Won Rang & introduces Seol Won Rang as Seorabeol Minister of Military. Seol Won Rang assures Bi Dam that he is acting in the matter of the country security, so Bi Dam need not been suspicious of him

Bi Dam asked whether they have the medicine goods for him that they had agreed upon. Seol Won Rang gave his assurance that once Deok Man is handed over to them, the medicine goods is his to take away. Bi Dam nods & leaves. Seol Won Rang convey to Bo Jong that send a message to Mi Shil that they have now apprehended Deok Man. Bo Jong acknowledge the instruction. Seol Won Rang is pleased

In Seorabeol where Mi Saeng comes in to inform that Seol Won Rang already have Deok Man in their hands. Mi Shil is pleased as Se Jong said that the time has ripens for them. Ha Jong tells his mother they can now expose the twin birth & the time is now waiting for them. Mi Shil said that this was the moment that they will begin to set the pace into place after they have been doing for the necessary preparation. Mi Shil’s camp went out to prepare whatever is instructed

Before leaving Seo Ri gave some concern advice that Deok Man is also the child who is born under the prophesy of the Gaeyang star that split to the 8th star on the Big Dipper & reminds Mi Shil that hasn’t she forgotten on the prophesy told to her by Moon Noh. Mi Shil recalls Moon Noh’s letter to her & recites as long as the Big Dipper’s seven stars formation does not become eight…There will be no one to oppose against Mi Shil’s authority, but when the next time the person who will oppose against Mi Shil’s authority will come on the day when the 7 stars formation of the Big Dipper becomes 8. Mi Shil is slightly startled. Seo Ri reminds that Deok Man is also that child was born with the fate from the Gaeyang star. Seo Ri weary that although they have to bring Deok Man back alive as proof that the twin birth exists but they need to eliminate Deok Man for their own good

Mi Shil now full of herself brushes this as utter nonsense that Seo Ri is concern over these matters, that Seo Ri is weary since she is the High Priestess of the Royal Celestial Shrine & it is an occupation hazard. Seo Ri displease that Mi Shil now don’t believe in divine intervention but only her almighty self. Mi Shil tells that she is person who can asked to rain within her finger tips & makes the moon loses its radiance then what it is with just a mere Gaeyang star of the Big Dipper is just a joke to make her laugh. Mi Shil tells that she is Mi Shil. Mi Shil leaves but Seo Ri is definitely not pleased with the arrogance of Mi Shil

Eul Jae goes to see King Jinpyeong over the matter of Deok Man that Mi Shil’s camp finds out about the twin birth the only method to have this resolves is matter is by this. Eul Jae have asked that an alliance marriage between Princess Cheon Myeong & Kim Yu Shin. King Jinpyeong is concern that decision of marriage that is of a sudden nature is uncalled for. Eul Jae voice out the concern that once the heir apparent successor issue is settled, even Mi Shil’s camp faction will not be able to make any accusation & makers their move towards it as they pleased. Eul Jae needs to further strengthen Kim Seo Hyeon’s position of authority. Princess Cheon Myeong doesn’t agree that Eul Jae suggest a Royal Wedding as being so casual as they brushes Deok Man’s dangers under the carpet without giving any account. The suggestion is also to help out in their affairs as these issue arise that the Royal Household doesn’t have an heir apparent in sight. Eul Jae suggest that if Kim Yu Shin becomes the Royal son in law then he can succeed in acting as interim Crown Prince then, the issues about the prophesy of the seeds of Seonggol male being vanished will not be the issue on contempt.

Seonggol is Silla Royal bloodline

Queen Maya apologise to her daughter over the matter in rushing her to a marriage of alliance without giving Cheon Myeong any concern. Cheon Myeong spoke directly to her mother that if the Royal Wedding occurs with the Gaya lineage then they can newly established foundation of power base & furthermore they have no knowledge how or when Mi Shil’s camp will move to bring up Deok Man’s matter as an excuse. Queen Maya said that this what worries her with anxiety each day. Cheon Myeong said that rather than sitting idly to be anxiously wait for that fateful day she thinks it will be wise that they are well prepare to anticipate for that day to come.

Im Jong announces his presence. Im Jong enters & inform that the Hwabaek council has commence. Princess Cheon Myeong dreads for the worst had come of the emergency Hwabaek meeting

Hwabaek is the Council of nobles

Se Jong chaired the Hwabaek council about the reasons that for the sake of Silla & the future of the Royal Household then it is unfortunate that the lineage of Seonggol males of Silla is danger of being extinct. King Jinpyeong, Queen Maya, Princess Cheon Myeong & Mi Shil is presence. Se Jong reminds about their founding father Hyeokgose of Geoseogan confederacy’s prophecy of the royal household family passed down that if a Silla ruler were to borne twins, then the seeds of all Seonggol males will varnished. Kim Yong Chu interrupts how dare Se Jong brings up the prophesy in the council that Se Jong is implying that there is existed a twin birth. Se Jong confirms as Eul Jae exclaimed the existing of the twin birth & what Se Jong have in term of evidence that supports & backs his claims. Eul Jae tells Se Jong that it is contempt in the council to bring up such allegation of accusation. Ha Jong tells them that they have the evidence that they will bring forwards. Se Jong asked Mi Saeng to enter. The doors opens then Mi Saeng walks in to reveal Chil Sook behind him standing as Chil Sook enters & greeting the council. Everybody is astonished at his appearance. Se Jong tells that it is the law that only allow that the other than Dae Deungs to speak in the Council but Se Jong makes a propose to the Council for Chil Sook to speak on his behalf. Se Jong puts his propose to vote & in the council they got the majority vote. Eul Jae also opted for for as Kim Yong Chu stops him but Eul Jae tells that if they don’t do so & goes against the propose, it will be telling them that they acknowledge the twin birth that will bring more harm than goods. Eul Jae & Kim Yong Chu puts their vote in favour for Chil Sook to speak on behalf of Se Jong

Se Jong after having the unanimous majority asked Chil Sook to make his report. Chil Sook begins his story about 20 years ago, Queen Maya borne to twin daughters. King Jinpyeong entrust the younger twin to his palace maid So Hwa & send them far away to a distance land & he was instructed to prove the twins existence, that Chil Sook pursue after that said palace maid, but was unable to catch her but then after he return to Silla he has witness that the that said palace maid and the other younger twin with his own eyes that they have indeed return to Seorabeol. King Jinpyeong looks at Mi Shil who gave him a cunning smiles of “Checkmate”

Bi Dam serving them a meal as Kim Yu Shin is not appreciating of his hospitality & breaks his food tray that how dare he do this to them & he will not forgive Bi Dam for his action. Bi Dam apologise but asked Kim Yu Shin to be understanding. Bi Dam goes to the tied up Deok Man & tells that Kim Yu Shin doesn’t want his food tray so he guess that he doesn’t want to eat & asked if it the same with Deok Man. Bi Dam said that she doesn’t seem she wants to eat then Bi Dam mutter that the people is from the Ministry of Military that wants him to catch her & asked Bi Dam that he must bring Deok Man to Seol Won Rang alive at all cost. Bi Dam assures her not to worry & tell her that he will be back with the dinner tray. Deok Man thanked him & caught Bi Dam by surprise that Deok Man thanked him that he is about to sell her off to her enemies & she must be mad to be grateful to him on his doings. Bi Dam asked Deok Man to come to her sense & tells Deok Man is crazy. Bi Dam leaves

Mi Shil confronts Cheon Myeong over the fact the Cheong Myeong knew the fact that Deok Man was her sister. Cheon Myeong plays along that to asked Mi Shil that she is implying that Deok Man is that alleged other younger twin. Mi Shil said as for now, they need to be direct about the matter. Cheon Myeong continues to said that is it not that Deok Man a male & Mi Shil to imply that Deok Man is the other younger twin. Mi Shil threaten that once Deok Man is brought back, do Cheon Myeong wants Deok Man to be strip of her clothes to reveal her gender. Cheon Myeong asked Mi Shil to confirm her allegation & save it once Mi Shil has Deok Man. Mi Shil laying her bargaining chips that she now have Chil Sook & So Hwa. Mi Shil correct herself by address Deok Man as Princess that she will be brought to Seorabeol & proof by showing her birth mark behind her ear. Thereafter Queen Maya & both the twin Princess must bear the responsibility of the Seonggol heirs’ bloodline to vanish. Princess Cheon Myeong tells that she will do so if they managed to bring Deok Man before the council. Mi Shil insists that Deok Man will brought before them. Cheon Myeong said that if Mi Shil unable to produce Deok Man then Mi Chil is charge in contempt by insulting the royal household by instigating to have Hwabaek Council to commence over the matter & will be frown upon by the Dae Deungs and the people of Silla. Mi Shil is so sure of herself. Mi Shil asked who do she think will be the 1st to be able to get their hands on Deok Man. If His Majesty is able to, even if King Jinpyeong is able to get her then what does King Jinpyeong plan to do to Deok Man. Mi Shil weights the consequences that King Jinpyeong will killed Deok Man & leave without a trace. Mi Shil will meet Cheon Myeong in the next Hwabaek Council.

Mi Shil leaves as Cheon Myeong mentioned that although Mi Shil speaks as if Mi Shil hold all divinity under heaven’s providence & favour, but Cheon Myeong reminds that the favour can vacillate & be short lived before she knows it. Heaven’s grace & favour does not come in duration of ling period of time. Cheon Myeong asked Mi Shil not to be too confident to that fact. Mi Shil is not startled by Cheon Myeong’s remark as Mi Shil tells that when she was at Cheon Myeong’s age, she too feared Heaven’s providence grace & proceeded to believe in providence but now as it is Mi Shil doesn’t need to have those kind of providence to do her will. Mi Shil confidently leaves

Princess Man Myeong assures King Jinpyeong not to be too worry as Kim Seo Hyeon has gone there before Mi Shil & will definitely able to bring Deok Man back. Eul Jae also concurs that Deok Man is with Kim Yu Shin, & since Kim Seo Hyeon has hasten to give them a chase ahead of time Mi Shil will not be able to get her hands on Deok Man. King Jinpyeong tells that MI Shil already has Chil Sook & even So Hwa & they may have to anticipate that at the next Hwabaek Council meeting, So Hwa will also make her appearance to testify. Queen Maya asked whether they are finding the whereabouts of So Hwa being held. Eul Jae said they are searching for So Hwa everywhere. King Jinpyeong conceit that this is indeed a tragedy that lies before him.

Eul Jae said that if Kim Seo Hyeon divert from the plans that the future will deem bleak for Kim Seo Hyeon. Eul Jae tells that they have to killed Deok Man immediately once they have apprehended Deok Man & makes sure that it is left without a trace. This is the only method for the survival of the Royal household & Princess Man Myeong’s family. Princess Man Myeong is shocked that what his husband is suppose to do when he meets with Kim Yu Shin

Deok Man asked what if they can escape what then, can they able to do anything about the matter. Kim Yu Shin said that they things one step at the time, Kim Yu Shin said that he will not let Mi Shil take her away. Deok Man agrees to that if she falls into to Mi Shil’s hands, then King Jinpyeong will be in dire straits in the meanwhile Queen Maya and the Princess Cheon Myeong will be deposed. There is also no of knowing what catastrophe repercussion will siege to happen to Kim Seo Hyeon & Kim Yu Shin. Kim Yu Shin said they are referring to that subject of discussion. Deok Man said that it is best that she should just disappear. Deok Man resign to fate that she just went to the medicinal store & there was poison of white arsenic around as she was looking at it, she thought to herself wouldn’t it be best for everybody if she just disappear from existence that was playing in her mind while looking at it. Kim Yu Shin tells that Deok Man is being foolish with her thoughts

Deok Man said that she just needs to die that she had thought of that. Kim Yu Shin asked Deok Man to come to her sense & get a grip & avoid those foolish thoughts. Deok Man feels that she is really pitiful then until now her life had been fruitless & it will be the same in death that she must be pity upon. Deok Man said that she has nothing to look forward to a future but however that she can the least seek shelter

Bi Dam comes with dinner & overhears Deok Man’s conversation. Kim Yu Shin wants to know what she is about to do. Deok Man looks at Kim YU shin but she said in her heart that the least that 200 people will able to live in her sake that she feels that is sufficient

Kim Yu Shin calls out Deok Man who is silent. Deok Man told herself that although, she is left with nothing to regret, but for Kim Yu Shin parting from him will be with a great regret & remorse. Kim Yu Shin doesn’t like the silence & asked Deok Man to speak to him. Deok Man tells Kim Yu Shin that she will refuse to play into the plans in helping that Mi Shil get what she wants & Deok Man will not let Mi Shil have her. Bi Dam asked who is that person that Deok Man has referred. Kim Yu Shin kept his rope aside. Deok Man said that there is this particular person. Bi Dam throw Kim Yu Shin his dinner.

Deok Man enquire whether Bi Dam got the medicinal herbs. Bi Dam said that he will have them once he hands Deok Man over to them. Then next morning Bi Dam informs Kim Yu Shin that he is going to take him to the Seol Won Rang the Minister of Military & will be back soon. Kim Yu Shin shouts that Bi Dam can’t do that & tries to shake the door open. Bi Dam went to untied Deok Man as Kim Yu Shin shouts for Deok Man. Bi Dam leads Deok Man away. Bi Dam said that he has assurance from the Minister of Military that no harm will come to Deok Man. Kim Yu Shin in rage that if he comes out from here, he will get Bi Dam for what he is about to do

Deok Man thanked Kim Yu Shin for everything as Kim Yu Shin shouts for Deok Man that she can’t do this & demands the door to be open like a mad man. While walking Bi Dam tells Deok Man that after he hand Deok Man over, he will release Kim Yu Shin. Then Bi Dam finds that Deok Man has King Jinheung’s dagger tuck under her sleeves & takes it out but wonders in surprise that if she had the dagger all this while in her sleeves why didn’t she use it to escape by cutting the ropes. Deok Man said that she want Bi Dam to take that medicinal herbs & make sure those 200 lives will be able to save. Bi Dam returns King Jinheung’s dagger to Deok Man. Bi Dam brought Deok Man to the rendezvous point where Seol Won Rang is waiting for them. Bi Dam asked for the Se Shin as Seol Won Rang showed Bi Dam the goods he had promised. Bi Dam takes a peek to find that there is a lot of it that he can’t even find any of it in this area no matter how hard he had searched.

Seol Won Rang asked Bi Dam to surrender Deok Man to them. Bo Jong & Seok Bum escort Deok Man to see Seol Won Rang as he bows before Deok Man & address her as Princess as it is certainly a strange fate meeting as Deok Man is Her Highness. Deok Man has no intention of even helping Seol Won Rang to achieve their plans. Seol Won Rang said that it may be if that is apparent to be credible. Bi Dam takes his Se Shin goods as he looks at Deok Man. Bi Dam pulls his cart of Se Shin away & ponders. Meanwhile Kim Yu Shin attempts to rope something for his escape & gets a staff & tries to hit his way out but in avail then he recalls Moon Noh about Bi Dam telling that his wield his sword laden with such heavy stroke & how much it hurts Bi Dam’s hands from making contact with his strokes. Then Moon Noh telling he doesn’t have guidance from a master & have embarked foolish training regime. It must have been difficult to have attain this level. Moon Noh tells Kim Yu Shin that he doesn’t know his potential himself well enough to use his skills. Then Kim Yu Shin starts to strike the wooden pole with his whacking strokes

Moon Noh is shocked on what Bi Dam has done that Bi Dam sold that Deok Man to obtain the Se Shin. Bi Dam said that his teacher told him that Se Shin can save the lives of 200 people. Moon Noh scolds him for being such a wretched brat. Bi Dam said that if it is a choice between a person versus 200 people, it is natural to choose the larger quantity. Moon Noh asked how dare Bi Dam able to weigh the value of a human life & how dare Bi Dam plays numbers on with the stakes of a human life. No matter how & what the reason of importance it may be, it will never outweigh more than a human life. Bi Dam said that there is the lives of the 200 people are worth more versus against a life. Moon Noh tells that if Bi Dam has a focus of aim then he is implying that it doesn’t matter in whatsoever method on how you achieve that goal. Moon Noh asked Bi Dam what has he been learning all this while. Bi Dam defends that the people had assures him that they don’t want to killed Deok Man & Deok Man thanked Bi Dam before he left. Moon Noh shouts at Bi Dam that it indeed absurd that Deok Man may want to thanked Bi Dam on what he has done to her that does she really sincerely thanked him for the matter. Bi Dam realise that there is something amiss as he recalls Deok Man telling Kim Yu Shin that she is looking forward to something & she will not conceit to be a part of Mi Shil’s plans & scheme, then the time she had King Jinpyeong’s dagger under her sleeves & she didn’t want to escape as she explains that she wanted Bi Dam to have the medicine & able to save those people. Moon Noh is in rage on what Bi Dam has done but Bi Dam excuses himself that Moon Noh needs to adjourn his scolding some other time as he has business to attend to

Bi Dam runs back to the rendezvous point but no longer there as he draw his sword to look at it & runs. Meanwhile Kim Yu Shin whacking his way out of his cell. Seol Won Rang taking Deok Man as Deok Man cuts her ropes. Kim Yu Shin finally breaks open his cell & runs to look for Deok Man as Bi Dam also running to catch up with Seol Won Rang. Deok Man managed to cut her ropes through then showed her dagger to everybody, Bo Jong & Seok Bum is send to deal with her as she takes the dagger to aim for her neck & Bo Jong stops her with his hands & gets cut by the dagger. Seok Bum came to restraint her & Seol Won Rang asked Deok Man to be gagged in her mouth. Seok Bum asked whether Bo Jong is alright with his injuries. Then Bi Dam comes running calling out to Seol Won Rang that he had finally caught up with them. Seol Won Rang tells him that there is nothing else between them as their business transaction is over since he has taken the goods. Bi Dam said that he has taken good but then he has a change of mind on the method of payment that it is not correct. Bi Dam said that he will pay for the value of the medicine later but he needs to take back Deok Man at once

Seok Bum thinks that Bi Dam is crazy to single handed to demand Deok Man from them. Bo Jong wants to deal with Bi Dam but Seok Bum seeing that Bo Jong is injures goes to approached Bi Dam & asked him to leave here immediately & how dare Bi Dam that he doesn’t know his placing. Bi Dam starts to fight his way in & stand in front of a gagged Deok Man as he tales out her gag & asked him why has he return here. Deok Man said he has to go & save that 200 people. Bi Dam gave back the same sentence that Moon Noh told him about the value human lives weights in a play of numbers. Then more of Seol Won Rang men comes in numbers.

Deok Man asked what he is going to do now. Bi Dam tells he needs to kill so many people today & get scolded for it. Kim Yu Shin comes running to aide by whacking everybody in sight. Deok Man is surprise of Kim Yu Shin’s appearance. Bi Dam surprise that he came out from his cell & asked him how he did that. Kim Yu Shin comes to Deok Man & tell Bi Dam that after this is over he will kill Bi Dam. Bi Dam said that let them discuss this after this when this is over.

Sinopsis Drama Asia (Korea) - The Great Queen Seon Deok Episode 21
Tayang: 9-Dec-2009 16:30 WIB

Dengan wajah penuh darah, Bidam (Kim Nam-gil) tersenyum sinis melihat musuhnya lari terbirit-birit. Sikapnya yang tidak bisa ditebak membuat Yushin (Uhm Tae-woong) yang baru tiba salah sangka, keduanya nyaris terlibat pertarungan kalau saja Deokman (Lee Yo-won) tidak melerai.

Setelah menyerahkan baju tempurnya, sebagai ganti ikat kepala yang digunakan untuk membayar makanan, Yushin bergegas mengajak Deokman meninggalkan gubuk persembunyian. Namun, keduanya tidak sadar kalau mata-mata Kim Seohyeon (Ju Sung-mo) terus menguntit dan mengabarkan perkembangan yang terjadi pada sang majikan.

Begitu sampai di desa, Yushin melihat sekelompok hwarang tengah sibuk dan sadar bahwa Mishil juga tengah mengincar Deokman. Karena hampir semua jalan keluar diblokir, satu-satunya kesempatan bagi mereka adalah pergi ke desa Yangji yang tengah dilanda wabah misterius.

Kedatangan Yushin dan Deokman di desa Yangji bertepatan dengan saat Bidam (Kim Nam-gil) tengah dimarahi oleh gurunya, yang rupanya sudah hapal dengan watak muridnya yang tidak pernah melakukan segala sesuatu tanpa pamrih.

Penuturan Deokman dan Yushin yang membenarkan penjelasan Bidam membuat pria setengah baya yang ternyata adalah Munno (Jung Ho-bin) tersebut akhirnya mengalah, namun ia tetap memerintahkan sang murid untuk mencari bahan obat-obatan sebelum semuanya terlambat. Tidak cuma itu, Munno juga meminta Yushin dan Deokman untuk meninggalkan desa Yangji.

Saat tengah mencari akar jahe liar, sosok Bidam terlihat oleh Seolwon (Jun Noh-min). Dengan iming-iming memberi apa yang dicari Bidam, Seolwon mengajukan satu syarat : pria berpenampilan seperti gelandangan itu harus menyerahkan Deokman sebagai imbalannya.

Memutuskan untuk tinggal membantu Munno, tanpa tahu siapa pria itu sebenarnya, Yushin dijebak oleh Bidam hingga terkurung di kandang yang sempit. Tidak memperdulikan teriakan penuh amarah dari pria itu, Bidam mengikat Deokman yang rencananya bakal diserahkan ke Seolwon.

Dengan wajah dingin, Bidam menyebut bahwa Deokman bakal menyelamatkan ratusan orang yang tengah terjangkit penyakit. Ucapan itu membuat mental Deokman semakin ambruk, ia sadar bahwa bila dirinya sudah tidak ada, keadaan akan lebih baik bagi semua orang.

Di Seorabol, kabar ditangkapnya Deokman membuat kubu Mishil (Go Hyeon-jeong) begitu gembira. Saat tinggal sendiri, Mishil diingatkan oleh Pendeta Seori (Song Ok-sook) tentang ramalan bintang biduk. Dengan senyum sinis, Mishil menyebut tidak percaya akan segala bentuk ramalan.

Pergolakan politik istana makin panas setelah Sejong menggelar rapat kabinet darurat. Seperti yang bisa ditebak, rapat tersebut membahas soal putri kembar Raja Jinpyeong (Jo Min-ki). Tidak sekedar asal bicara, Sejong menghadirkan bukti hidup berupa Chilseok (Ahn Kil-kang). Setelah pengambilan suara yang dimenangi kubu Sejong, Chilseok akhirnya menuturkan semua yang dialaminya selama 20 tahun.

Setelah hari berganti, Bidam menggiring Deokman ke tempat dimana ia berjanji bakal bertemu Seolwon. Di perjalanan, Bidam baru sadar kalau sang tawanan selama diikat menggenggam belati Raja Jinheung. Sudah tentu ia heran, pasalnya dengan belati tersebut Deokman bisa meloloskan diri namun hal itu tidak dilakukan.

Rupanya Deokman punya rencana lain, ia berhasil meyakinkan Bidam untuk membiarkan dirinya memegang belati Raja Jinheung. Sesuai perjanjian, Bidam akhirnya menyerahkan Deokman ke tangan Seolwon dengan imbalan beberapa peti akar jahe liar. Namun sepanjang perjalanan pulang, pikiran Bidam melayang pada sikap aneh Deokman yang seolah pasrah.

Begitu menceritakan apa yang terjadi pada sang guru, Munno langsung marah besar dan membentak Bidam sambil menyebut kalau nyawa manusia terlalu berharga untuk ditukar dengan apapun termasuk nyawa manusia lain. Ketika sibuk membantah, Bidam tiba-tiba teringat sesuatu dan langsung berpamitan untuk mengejar rombongan yang menahan Deokman.

Usaha Deokman untuk bunuh diri dengan menggunakan pisau Raja Jinheung gagal, namun tiba-tiba muncul Bidam. Menyebut telah berubah pikiran dan bakal membebaskan Deokman, ucapan Bidam langsung ditertawakan oleh Bojong (Baek Do-bin) dan Seokpum (Hong Kyung-in).

Hanya meringis karena diremehkan, Bidam langsung menghunus pedangnya dengan satu gerakan cepat. Dikeroyok oleh belasan orang berkemampuan tinggi, tiba-tiba dari belakang muncul Yushin yang berhasil membebaskan diri. Kini, semuanya tergantung Yushin dan Bidam untuk menolong Deokman.

Synopsis/summary of Episode 23

Kim Yu Shin comes running to aid by whacking everybody in sight. Deok Man is surprise of Kim Yu Shin’s appearance. Bi Dam surprise that he came out from his cell & asked him how he did that. Kim Yu Shin comes to Deok Man & tell Bi Dam that after this is over he will kill Bi Dam. Bi Dam said that let them discuss this after this when this is over. Bi Dam & Kim Yu Shin ready to engage with Seol Won Rang for Deok Man

Bi Dam: Come let me see it, if you touched this child all of you will perish

Kim Yu Shin: Whoever comes near Deok Man will answer to me……Attack!!!

Seol Won Rang’s men surround them like in a formation. Deok Man is release from her ropes as Bi Dam & Kim Yu Shin fights their way through. Kim Yu Shin throws a sword at Deok Man to defend herself but she is so stunned as Kim Yu Shin asked her to stay in focus. Then Seol Won Rang finds that Bi Dam posses the same fighting style as Moon Noh. As Kim Yu Shin & Bi Dam grounded most of the men, Seok Bum steps up to confront Kim Yu Shin, who when they were younger Seok Bum had defeated Kim Yu Shin in swordsplay as Seok Bum thinks he has the upper hand & over confident. This time Kim Yu Shin is well ready to anticipate by giving Seok Bum his hacking stroke that Seok Bum loses balance & fells as Kim Yu Shin about to strike, Bo Jong comes to help but Kim Yu Shin had a better hand on Bo Jong as well broke Bo Jong’s blade & cut through his lamellar amour . Seol Won Rang & even Deok Man is surprise at the improve skill of Kim Yu Shin as Kim Yu Shin recalls what Moon Noh said to him to pay attention of focus to his swordsplay skills as he doesn’t realise this true potential

As Seol Won Rang summons more men, Bi Dam asked them to hurry to make a run for it as they are too many to hold back. Seol Won Rang’s men in hot pursuit as Deok Man being drag by Kim Yu Shin & Bi Dam on either hand. Bo Jong order the archer to shoot them in the legs & not aim for the body but the arrows misses the range & continue the pursuit then at the ridge of a ravine, & no turning back as Bo Jong is in pursuit, Bi Dam & Kim Yu Shin holds tight to Deok Man’s hand as they jump off the steep edge of the cliff into the water. It looks like a scene from Butch Cassidy & Sundance Kid when they were trapped by the posse & leap off a cliff into raging waters knowing that the “fall will probably kill them” but this is a little mild for standard. Bo Jong & Seok Bum can only look below to see there is no sign of them emerging from the waters, so they have lost them. Seol Won Rang comes & order that they should start searching the flow of the stream for them & leave no place unchecked

Guk San Heun & Dae Pung informs Al Cheon that Kim Yu Shin had both gone missing & that also that Joo Bang & Go Do has disappeared & asked Al Cheon for some direction into the matter. Dae Pung can sense that something amiss might have happened to them. Al Cheon said that this is not the matter that they should stick their nose to meddle in & asked them to go back & wait. Suddenly Princess Cheon Myeong appearance & surprise Al Cheon with her unannounced visit as he mentioned that Eul Jae & Kim Yong Chu is not in the chambers. Princess Cheon Myeong said that her intention to see Al Cheon. Al Cheon dismissed Guk San Heun & Dae Pung to leave

In private, Al Cheon asked Cheon Myeong to state her intentions. Cheon Myeong said she was told that his relationship with Kim Yu Shin is considered close & asked if Al Cheon would help her. Meanwhile Bi Dam has an adrenalin thrill for the jump & the freshness of the water while Kim Yu Shin drags Deok Man to the banks. Deok Man is unconscious as Kim Yu Shin administrated mouth to mouth ventilation then continues with chest compression. Although I might say that his techniques are a little off mark position & did CPR was invented in the 7th century? While Bi Dam enjoys his adrenalin rush & the excitement of the fight with Seo Won Rang’s men, Kim Yu Shin is trying hard to get Deok Man to regain consciousness. Bi Dam realise Deok Man breast wraps as Kim Yu Shin shouts to turn his head away. Deok Man revives consciousness by regurgitating the water out of the stomach as Bi Dam asked whether Deok Man is female. Bi Dam asked Deok Man whether she is a girl & wonders the reason why Deok Man had no strength in wielding her sword. Bi Dam washes his face in the stream & realise that Deok Man was trying with intention to die by commit suicide. Kim Yu Shin asked what is the meaning behind Bi Dam’s remarks as Bi Dam tells Kim Yu Shin that Deok Man has a dagger hidden under her sleeves but she didn’t use it to cut loose her ropes. Kim Yu Shin demands from Deok Man whether Bi Dam remarks is true. Deok Man is silence as the answer is affirmative

Meanwhile Bo Jong & his men comes back empty handed & reports to Seol Won Rang that they had searched everywhere downstream but there is no sign of them. Seol Won Rang orders Bo Jong to take half his men to Yangji village to begin search there. Seol Won Rang said that Bi Dam is said to have been in residence in that village so asked Bo Jong to check that out

Kim Yu Shin, Deok Man & Bi Dam finds shelter in the cave as Kim Yu Shin tells Deok Man what a fool she is that she felt that she is not worthwhile & tries to kill herself in a quest but what about Kim Yu Shin’s sentiment & quest in wanting to save Deok Man. Kim Yu Shin asked on what about her mother who died trying to save Deok Man in the desert or what about Princess Cheon Myeong in Seorabeol who is feeling full of concern with fear Deok Man’s welfare & safety or what about Kim Yu Shin who now standing at her side & scolds Deok Man as how could she be so selfish in forgetting about the people who is greatly concern about her. They have come to this present by managing to cheat death many a times. Deok Man stood up to asked what now has she got to show for it & what she is suppose to do now. Deok Man resigns that does he have any way out to how they can overcome this predicament situation. Deok Man walks away as Kim Yu Shin goes after her. Bi Dam asked why what situation demands them to reaction in such a manner

Kim Yu Shin tells her that there is a way that he suggest that they leave Silla together. Things may be fine of they are not in Silla as they would be on the run & asked Deok Man to leave with him. Deok Man asked why should Kim Yu Shin sacrifice himself that he is showing her great empathy towards her. Why it is a great cause that Kim Yu Shin were to give up his father or Silla to go such a distance with her. Deok Man asked if by chance that Kim Yu Shin has a liking for her. Kim Yu Shin is silence as Deok Man continues that it doesn’t make any sense on his reason to leave with her that he doesn’t concern him at all. Deok Man leaves but Kim Yu Shin grab hold of her as Kim Yu Shin answer that he never said he did not like her. Deok Man realise that Kim Yu Shin has develop a liking for her as he leaves. Deok Man follows as Bi Dam looks like a curious audience as the scene unfold before him

Kim Yu Shin went into the cave as Deok Man tells that Kim Yu Shin that she actually know the reason that he must have pitied her at that is all to it. Deok Man would have done the same if she was in his shoes as these times they had grown quite fond acquaintance for each other. Bi Dam comes in to eavesdrop their conversation as Deok Man asked Kim Yu Shin to take back his vow on her. Kim Yu Shin directly tell Deok Man that he has chosen her that he will leave with Deok Man together & that he will. Kim Yu Shin said that back at the cell, he thought he was driving himself crazy as he watched her being led away. He felt that he was useless to d anything& wanted to kill himself being so pathetic. Kim Yu Shin promised that he will never permit the incident to ever happened again & without his permission there will be no one will be allow to bring any harm to Deok Man not even if it is Deok Man herself. Bi Dam is so thrill that it is such a joke that Kim Yu Shin is being so mushy in their love declaration. Meanwhile Seol Won Rang men are scouting the mountain for their whereabouts

In the night, Al Cheon gathers the cadre of Bi Cheon Ji Do and Yonghwa Hyangdo that they are heading for Geumak village & in there they will save Kim Yu Shin & Deok Man as the cadre obey the orders. Al Cheon & Cheon Myeong rides out to Geumak Village. Queen Maya informs King Jinpyeong that Cheon Myeong left the palace, that he took something from her drawers as Queen Maya queried the palace maid & finds that she has apparently left the palace with Al Cheon. King Jinpyeong wonders what Cheon Myeong behaving unpredictable in the situation, & Cheon Myeong has gotten involved in the matter. Queen Maya enquire from Princess Man Myeong whether there is any news from Kim Seo Hyeon. Princess Man that he has heard anything

Kim Yong Chu & Eul Jae comes to report that Cheon Myeong has left Seorabeol. King Jinpyeong that he just hear the news as of now. Kim Yong Chu is concern that if by chance Cheon Myeong is apprehended together with Deok Man then it may pose a problem for them. Eul Jae asked Princess Man Myeong where did Kim Seo Hyeon went as Princess Man Myeong replied that her husband is in Geumak village. Eul Jae can half guess that Cheon Myeong will be heading towards that place. King Jinpyeong orders Kim Yong Chu to send at once Im Jong and his cadre to Geumak village, and seek to find Cheon Myeong immediately, the King Jinpyeong adds that Im Jong & his cadres must find & protect both Deok Man & Kim Yu Shin

Ha Jong is disappointed that Seol Won Rang had lost track of Deok Man. Ha Jong said that it was just a teaser to make them happy when they send words that they had apprehended Deok Man. Se Jong is angry on what Seol Won Rang is doing out there as he is making worried by counting, by counting the eggs before they are hatched that Seol Won Rang is so careless in handling the matter that the delay may cause them risk of dangers & they need to put an end to this matter immediately. Ha Jong concurs. Se Jong said that they already started the battle by declaring the Hwabaek Council, if Seol Won Rang is unable to produce Deok Man it will backfire at their face with great back. Ha Jong said that they must persist in their Hwabaek Council as they still holding So Hwa. Ha Jong suggest that they use the testimony of So Hwa & Chil Sook on the evidence that the twin existed as their trump card. All they have to do is prove that. Mi Shil said that it will not work if they handle the matter that way. Se Jong is impatient that they has to wait for the capture of Deok Man. Mi Shil said in time of this they need hard core substantial evidence to proof their argument & advice caution before they have that evidence, without that they can’t proceed further.

Mi Shil states that furthermore, Chil Sook currently believes that So Hwa is in the hands of King Jinpyeong & if Chil Sook were to find out that they are the ones who is holding So Hwa, she can’t predict what Chil Sook’s reaction will be. Mi Saeng is angry that Seol Won Rang failed to capture Deok Man & lost sight of her. Seo Ri reiterate that is why that instead of trying to capture Deok Man, they should just kill her instead when the opportunity was there. Chil Sook asked for So Hwa & her whereabouts. Mi Saeng tells him that they are still trying to find So Hwa. Chil Sook is worried what of King Jinpyeong gets to So Hwa 1st, then it may impose a great obstacle for Mi Shil. Chil Sook asked that So Hwa needs to be found as soon as possible

Abbot Wyol Cheon is checking pulse for So Hwa as Joo Bang begs Abbot Wyol Cheon that they really do not know anything as they are just mere lowly servants. Go Do asked that their hand be untied their hancuff. Abbot Wyol Cheon tells that he is also just a mere astronomer & physician as Abbot Wyol Cheon leaves as Joo Bang & Go Do begs for their release. Then Joo Bang picks pocket Abbot Wyol Cheon & finds that the key don’t fit their handcuff, then Joo Bang is frustrated that each time they pick pocket the Abbot; that the keys don’t open their handcuff

Abbot Wyol Cheon is inform that Mi Shil wants immediate results. Abbot Wyol Cheon said that So Hwa’s case is not the same with Chil Sook & treating her for a cure is not easy. Mi Shil’s men asked Abbot Wyol Cheon to tried harder with effort as it is a matter of great urgency. Abbot Wyol Cheon goes to his room only to find an arrow shot into his room with a note. Abbot Wyol Cheon read the note & realise that this is from people of Gaya. Mi Shil’s men comes to check on the commotion as Abbot Wyol Cheon brushes it as nothing & asked the man to leave. Does Abbot Wyol Cheon have any relationship to the Gaya Confederacy

Cheon Myeong confronts Kim Seo Hyeon to ask whether he came her acting on Eul Jae’s orders & what Eul Jae has promised Kim Seo Hyeon in return of that barter. Cheon Myeong said that whatever it may be, it will never materialise as the Royal wedding between her & Kim Yu Shin will not occur & threaten Kim Seo Hyeon that whatever few people of Gaya left in Seorabeol will never able to set foot in the capital. Kim Seo Hyeon bows to Cheon Myeong’s reprimand as Cheon Myeong asked if he believe that Mi Shil is capable of such treat then Kim Seo Hyeon should try going again Cheon Myeong. Cheon Myeong said that Kim Seo Hyeon is not giving any consideration to King Jinpyeong’s feeling, he is no better than Mi Shil. Kim Seo Hyeon apologise for his folly. Cheon Myeong orders that Kim Seo Hyeon retrieve his order & to rescue Deok Man without harm. Kim Seo Hyeon obeys

Deok Man ponders as she looks at King Jinheung’s dagger on Kim Yu Shin words that he had chosen her over his family & country & plans to leave Silla with her. Deok Man question if it is alright to do so with Kim Yu Shin & what she is suppose to do now. Kim Yu Shin is doing his own set of pondering in thoughts. Bi Dam comes after collecting firewood & asked whether he is leaving Silla or not. Bi Dam embrace Kim Yu Shin that he will run away together with Deok Man. Bi Dam asked whether Kim Yu Shin likes Deok Man. Kim Yu Shin is not friendly as since Bi Dam help them in their escape, he will tolerate Bi Dam for the time being & chase him away

Kim Yu Shin notices Seol Won Rang’s men & grabs Bi Dam to hide from sight. Kim Yu Shin inform that Seol Won Rang’s men has came this way searching for them. Bi Dam said they are like blood hound so persistent. Kim Yu Shin said that they need to leave her at once. Bi Dam stops him to say that this place is safe as they will not able to detect from outside. Bi Dam asked them to stay here for a while as he goes to Yangji village to see if he can hire a boat. Kim Yu Shin asked whether Bi Dam can get them a boat to escape. Bi Dam said that a few moment ago Kim Yu Shin tried to chase him away & couldn’t care less about him. Bi Dam said the just have to plead with his teacher. Kim Yu Shin asked them for Bi Dam a favour. Bi Dam asked on condition that Deok Man & Kim Yu Shin able to take him with them. Kim Yu Shin agrees & asked him to go to Yangji village. Bi Dam said that it will not be now as he is certain that they are also searching through Yangji village, because Bi Dam did mentioned that he was residing in that. Bi Dam asked them to give some trust to him & wait for him at the cave as he will go outside to check on the situation.

Bi Dam said he barter chicken for that. Al Cheon asked from whom he barter that armour from.

Seol Won Rang admits that his miscalculation & over confidence has ended up in failure. Dae Nam Bo said that Mi Shil is anxious with worry. Seol Won Rang believes that he is certain that Deok Man & Kim Yu Shin has not left the mountain region in this area as of yet. Seol Won Rang orders his men to leave just a unit her while other split to units of 100 men & commence to search the areas of Mt. Jeul Ji. Bo Jong said that they already made plans & Dae Nam Bo just followed their lead. Seol Won Rang said that they must capture Deok Man alive at all cost, it may be difficult that it is a must that they do so. Bo Jong & Seok Bum acknowledge the order while Dae Nam Bo had a different agenda.

Dae Nam Bo asked his cadre to divide the Duk Si poison arrow among them

Poison arrow in ancient Chinese comes from the plant Aconite. The plant in its fresh form is highly poisonous. The poison comes from the toxic alkaloid aconitine. Aconitine is found in the whole plant but is mainly concentrated in the root. Symptoms of poisoning include tingling, numbness of the tongue and mouth, nausea & vomiting, laboured in breathing, a weak and irregular pulse, and cold, clammy skin. It is said that even the smallest amounts of aconitine inside the mouth cause burning, tingling, and numbness. As little as 2 mg of aconitine can cause death in as little as 4 hours, which may be one reason why aconite is often chosen by people attempting suicide by poison. It is still until the present day has declared all species of aconite “unfit for human consumption. Aconitum carmichaeli is used in traditional Chinese medicine It is called Fu Zi in Mandarin or Szechuan Aconite. This herb is used to treat rheumatism, bruises, arthritis, acute hypothermia, diarrhoea, & impotence. The herb is very hot and has a sweet, spicy taste. The main function of Fu Zi is to warm the interior. It also works to restore collapsed yang, warm Kidney fire, warm the Kidney and spleen, drive out the cold, warm the meridians, and relieve pain. Fu Zi is also used by traditional Chinese herbalists in conditions marked by deficient Kidney and Spleen yang or in conditions with early morning diarrhoea or lack of appetite. Aconitum carmichaeli also contains the toxic alkaloid aconitine. After cooking the herb, the alkaloid is converted to aconine, which is not as toxic. This herb is poisonous. When it is properly prepared as recommended by a Chinese medicine practitioner, there are rarely any adverse effects. Chinese pharmacies do not sell raw, untreated aconite, as the plant should be dried and then brewed for long periods of time. There have been, however, cases of aconite poisoning reported in Asian countries, including some that ended in the patient’s death from heart arrhythmias. It appears that most of these cases are due either to the herbalist’s prescribing a larger dose of aconite than is needed, or to the patient’s attempting to prepare the remedy at home. It is use with caution as it is extremely toxic.

Dae Nam Bo said that the unit are being dispatched out that his cadre must come with him immediately & be with his at all time. One of Dae Nam Bo cadre asked whether they have to kill Deok Man. Dae Nam Bo confirm that they need to do the assassination without anybody’s knowledge

Al Cheon gathers the cadres & asked them to search every corner of the mountain & find out the movement in the vicinity as the cadre leaves for the search. It seems the whole population of the Hwa Rang cadre corps are up in that mountain. Kim Yu Shin pacing outside a Chogajip (thatcher roof house) as Deok Man & Cheon Myeong has a private moment. Cheon Myeong notices that Deok Man doesn’t look well. Deok Man asked why Cheon Myeong had come all the way here. Cheon Myeong tell Deok Man to leave Silla. Cheon Myeong said that she, their mother, their father would wanted to help but don’t have the ability or the capability to do anything as they don’t have the political strength & stand powerless. Cheon Myeong said that she knew their dire situation all this while & that it has never bother here but not until now it vexed her so much that they had never even have the chance to become sisters & siblings for example like other sisters, they have yet to fight over clothes or tossing rings here and there as all girls will do, & saying either you want to or I want to go next. They haven’t even got the chance to argue & bickers about petty things. Deok Man said even if they grew up together like other sisters, Deok Man is sure that Cheon Myeong will give in to her in everything. Deok Man said that she just would just pouted & said that she want this or that. Deok Man asked Cheong Myeong not to feel laden with guilt for her sake as Cheon Myeong had done all she can for Deok Man & she will never harbour any resentment towards Cheon Myeong. Cheon Myeong is choked with tears

Cheon Myeong present Deok Man a package to asked her to unwrap it & see. Deok Man unwraps it to fond female clothings as Cheon Myeong tell Deok Man that this was made by Queen Maya their mother for Deok Man despite never having seen Deok Man & made it exactly like Cheon Myeong’s. Queen Maya after meeting with Deok Man. Queen Maya went to her closet & dug deep from where she hid it & told Cheon Myeong that her mother needs to clothed & help to wear this clothes on her daughter. Cheon Myeong said that their mother can only mutter repeats of these words & can’t able do to anything about it. Cheon Myeong asked Deok Man to try it on to see if it fits as she too wish to see Deok Man wear the clothes their mother had made for them. Deok Man touches the fabric of the clothes

Cheon Myeong comes out as Kim Yu Shin greets her. Cheong Myeong has asked Deok Man to leave Silla as in this In this world of theirs; can’t able to find a family where a father, a mother of whom unable to give protection to the life of their family member. Cheon Myeong is sick with nausea at the sight of this happening before her that she can no longer able to endures nor tolerate that she really as of now wants to see the end of Mi Shil. Cheon Myeong turns to Kim Yu Shin as he kneels before her as Kim Yu Shin asked for forgiveness from Princess Cheon Myeong that he may no longer able to stand by her side anymore as he had vowed. Kim Yu Shin tells Cheon Myeong that he is leaving with Deok Man & to protect her & to take care of her. Cheon Myeong is taken aback by Kim Yu Shin’s declaration.

Deok Man comes awkwardly out still in her male top knot wearing Queen Maya tailored clothes. Kim Yu Shin quickly stood up at the sight of Deok Man in a dress. Cheon Myeong tells that Deok Man looks pretty in the dress but why Deok Man didn’t do anything with her hair. If Deok Man is dressed to be a Princess then she should have the hair style that is befitting that dress. Cheon Myeong goes into the thatcher house as Kim Yu Shin scan Deok Man from head to toe. Deok Man tell Kim Yu Shin that she had been in men’s clothes for so long, so that is why the awkwardness that she is not fit being a Princess. Kim Yu Shin said that he had convey to Cheon Myeong that that he will be leaving together with Deok Man. Deok Man said that Cheon Myeong will be ridden with sadness. Deok Man said that Kim Yu Shin may not be aware but she know all so very well how much trust Cheon Myeong rides on Kim Yu Shin for confidence

Cheon Myeong style Deok Man’s hair for her. Cheon Myeong asked whether Deok Man can able to address her as Unnie for just once as she wish to hear her said it to her. But Deok Man tries but hesitates then pushes the excuse that she will definitely address Cheon Myeong as Unnie the next time. Cheon Myeong is disappointed as she said to herself when will there be the next time for that opportunity. Deok Man tells that in regards to Kim Yu Shin, Deok Man will return Kim Yu Shin to Cheon Myeong’s side to serve her that Deok Man knows how important Kim Yu Shin is to Cheon Myeong & she knows how important asset is Kim Yu Shin for Silla. Deok Man just want Kim Yu shin until she leaves Silla for she fears being afraid & lonely but she will be fine after she leaves Silla as Cheon Myeong is left with all the troubles & problems. In comparison Deok Man has lesser things to worry than Cheon Myeong but Cheon Myeong may feel more of the loneliness because this place is a very lonely place to be. Cheon Myeong had always needs to walk through the darkness alone. This is why she definitely needs to return Kim Yu Shin back to Cheon Myeong

Cheon Myeong comes forward to Deok Man & holds her hands & tells that she will not have Kim Yu Shin as Deok Man can leave with Kim Yu Shin & so they can live & make a life together. Cheon Myeong tells Deok Man that King Jinpyeong who abandoned & gave her up; for a mother & sister who couldn’t do anything or have the power to protect Deok Man, Cheon Myeong asked Deok Man to just forget about everything about Silla & lives a normal life & to live like a woman. Cheon Myeong tries to say something but hesitates & asked Deok Man to have a happy life as a woman & she must do so. Cheon Myeong said that Deok Man must live in happiness for her as well. Deok Man said to herself whether it is alright that she can leave with Kim Yu Shin together.

Al Cheon looking at the distance at the 2 sisters as Kim Yu Shin approaches Al Cheon to asked Al Cheon to look after Cheon Myeong for him as he plans to leave Silla with Deok Man. Al Cheon tells Kim Yu Shin before they arrived here, the Royal wedding has been decided between Kim Yu Shin & Princess Cheon Myeong. It is because Kim Yu Shin had told Cheon Myeong that he is leaving, she didn’t mentioned or bring up the matter & asked Kim Yu Shin to reconsider of Cheon Myeong’s heartfelt feeling & her situation. Kim Yu Shin knows the reason why his father came here, that he must have had a discussion Eul Jae that he had barter Deok Man’s life for the Royal wedding

Even if there was an agreement. Al Cheon said that although that this was the arrangement of between Eul Jae & Kim Seo Hyeon but they can’t deny what Cheon Myeong’s feeling for Kim Yu Shin is. Kim Yu Shin understands but does Al Cheon understand what his heartfelt feeling is as of now. Kim Yu Shin said that he is the person who don’t defer or divert in action on what his heart feels. Bi Dam also watching the 2 sisters at the distance as Cheon Myeong stroking Deok Man’s hair

Bo Jong goes on their search for Deok Man & Kim Yu Shin as Guk San Heun & Dae Pung are also tracking their movement as Seol Won Rang’s men is everywhere in the area as they run back to report as Dae Nam Bo tracks Guk San Heun & Dae Pung & follows them. Guk San Heun & Dae Pung makes a report that Seol Won Rang’s men have spread out their search, Dae Pung said that the search party are carrying rabbit’s feces. Deok Man is already changed into her Nang Do uniform

Do Pyan – Rabbit dung. Dried rabbit dung works like charcoal, it is flammable due to the grass blend content & makes good smoke alarms

Kim Yu Shin said that they are planning to use the dung send up smoke signal once their location is being discovered. Kim Yu Shin asked whether Guk San Heun & Dae Pung had asked Bi Dam for directions of the area. Guk San Heun said that Bi Dam advise the best route is through water way rather that track road that may seem shorter. Dae Pung said since the forest is naturally dark & finding them may be a difficult task, even discover, capture is not so easily. Cheon Myeong said then a boat must be prepared. Al Cheon had made arrangement for the boat as they speak & the route they must take is being brief.

Cheon Myeong asked Guk San Heun & Dae Pung to take the track road & block the path. Guk San Heun & Dae Pung leaves. Cheon Myeong said that they must prevent them from discovery Deok Man’s whereabout at all cost. Cheon Myeong looks at Deok Man’s princess clothes folded on the table. Guk San Heun & Dae Pung leaves the thatcher house. Meanwhile Dae Nam Bo & his cadre already found the location of where Deok Man is hiding as he surveillance the thatcher house. Deok Man bids farewell to Cheon Myeong with embraces, it pains those who witness the emotions of the sister’s parting.

Sinopsis Drama Asia (Korea)The Great Queen Seon Deok Episode 23
Tayang: 11-Dec-2009 16:30 WIB

Berbeda dengan Yushin (Uhm Tae-woong) yang hanya bersenjatakan tongkat kayu, Bidam (Kim Nam-gil) dengan pedangnya tidak segan-segan membunuh lawan-lawannya. Namun yang paling membuat Seolwon (Jun Noh-min) kaget, Bidam memiliki jurus yang sama persis dengan Munno (Jung Ho-bin).

Meremehkan Yushin yang saat remaja sering dikalahkan, Seokpum (Hong Kyung-in) dan belakangan Bojong (Baek Do-bin) ternyata mampu dikalahkan oleh sang yunior. Begitu ada kesempaan, Bidam langsung mengajak Yushin dan Deokman (Lee Yo-won) untuk melarikan diri.

Berhasil lolos setelah melompat ke dalam air terjun, Yushin sangat kecewa saat Bidam memberitahunya kalau Deokman berniat bunuh diri. Namun saat ditegur, Deokman dengan marah menyebut sudah tidak ada lagi jalan keluar dari masalah yang dihadapinya. Siapa sangka, Yushin menyebut bahwa ia siap pergi sejauh mungkin dari Shilla dan meninggalkan semuanya demi Deokman.

Ditemani oleh Alcheon (Lee Seung-hyo), Putri Cheonmyeong (Park Ye-jin) menyusul Kim Seohyeon (Ju Sung-mo) ke desa Gunmak. Begitu bertemu muka, ia langsung bisa menebak kalau ayah Yushin itu sudah bekerja sama dengan Eule (Shin Goo). Dengan marah, ia meminta Kim Seohyeon mengubah perintahnya supaya Deokman bisa ditemukan dengan selamat.

Gagalnya penangkapan Deokman membuat kubu Mishil (Go Hyeon-jeong) berang, namun wanita itu tetap ngotot supaya putri bungsu Raja Jinpyeong (Jo Min-ki) itu ditangkap dalam keadaan hidup. Oleh Pendeta Seori (Song Ok-sook), Mishil kembali diingatkan bahwa ramalan bintang menunjukkan bahwa kehadiran dua putri kembar hanya akan membuatnya berada dalam kesulitan.

Untuk kesekian kalinya peringatan itu diabaikan oleh Mishil, sehingga Seori memutuskan untuk bicara dengan Misaeng (Jung Wong-in). Begitu mendengar kalau kehadiran putri kembar bakal mengancam Mishil, Misaeng mengutus salah seorang putranya Daenambo (Ryu Sang-wook) untuk menghabisi Deokman.

Saat tengah melacak keberadaan Deokman, secara tidak sengaja Alcheon melihat gerak-gerik seorang wanita yang mencurigakan. Saat diikuti, wanita tersebut secara tidak sengaja mempertemukannya dengan Bidam dan salah seorang penduduk desa.

Begitu ditodong pedang, Bidam langsung teringat oleh peringatan Yushin tentang warna ikat kepala hwarang yang harus dihindari. Mendengar Alcheon menyebut dirinya rekan Yushin, ditambah kemunculan Goksaheun (Jun Young-bin) dan Daepung (Park Young-seo) yang memakai kostum klan Kembang Naga, ia memutuskan membawa mereka ke tempat persembunyian.

Siapa sangka di tengah jalan Bidam berubah pikiran, dengan satu gerakan cepat ia merebut dan menghunuskan pedang ke arah Goksaheun dan Daepung. Suara adu mulut antara Bidam dan Putri Cheonmyeong terdengar oleh Deokman dan Yushin, yang langsung keluar dari persembunyiannya.

Di gubuk terpencil, Putri Cheonmyeong dengan sedih meminta Deokman untuk pergi sejauh mungkin dari Seorabol sambil minta maaf karena dirinya dan keluarga raja tidak mampu melindungi gadis malang itu. Sebelum pergi, Deokman diminta untuk mengganti pakaiannya dengan gaun yang sama persis dengan yang dikenakan Putri Cheonmyeong.

Begitu Deokman muncul, Putri Cheonmyeong langsung meneteskan air mata terharu. Sambil menyisir rambut Deokman, sang putri berpesan supaya adiknya bisa hidup bahagia bersama Yushin. Deokman hanya tersenyum tipis saat Putri Cheonmyeong meminta dirinya memanggil kakak, dan menyebut bakal menggunakan panggilan itu bila keduanya bertemu lagi.

Sementara itu, Goksaheun dan Daepung terus mengamati gerak-gerik pasukan Seolwon dan melaporkannya pada Alcheon. Keduanya tidak sadar kalau mereka diikuti oleh Daenambo, yang tanpa sepengetahuan atasannya mengemban misi rahasia dari Misaeng. Tidak ada yang sadar bahwa aksinya bakal mengubah sejarah.
