Queen For Seven Days (7일의 왕비)

Bride and Groom, bow to each other!

You said you trust Yeok? I can guarantee that

you will soon start to suspect him because he is deceiving you.

Bride and Groom, drink the liquor together.

If it's true that he has no news of the scribe,

he will go to the rest station because he will be curious about the secret order.

If he knows about the scribe's whereabouts,

he will notice that this letter is a fake,

and Seo No will run to his father

to check his safety.

Seo No.

Father.

- Father. - Seo No! Seo No.

Father, are you alright?

I am alright, Seo No.

The Queen Dowager gave her approval and it is a marriage following a royal order.

However, I wish this marriage will not be a political marriage

but an ordinary one.

I fully understand what you're trying to say.

From now on, the fate of my Chae Gyeong

is up to you.

So please live only as my son-in-law,

Chae Gyeong's husband, and His Majesty's younger brother.

I sincerely ask you.

You and my son's fate is really interesting.

That it's back to where it started after taking a very long detour. Isn't that so?

It is said everything in the world finds its rightful way.

The fact that we are reunited after such a long time

must mean this is indeed fate, is it not?

I am saying I won't repeat the same mistake or wrongdoing.

Thus, please take back the anger from before,

and if you have any hate left, please lay it down, Queen Dowager.

From olden times, a woman lives chasing father's wish after birth

husband's wish after marriage, and son's wish after getting older.

From now on, can I trust that you will be on the side of Yeok, not the First Vice-Premier's,

and live according to Yeok's wishes?

Yes, what I have received and learned from my father till now,

I will share and practice it with my husband in the future.

Your Highness the Queen Dowager. A female physician is here from the royal infirmary.

Stop!

The attack was halted midway.

They were after something else.

Your Highness the Grand Prince.

Chae Gyeong.

Something urgent just came up. I'll be back. See you at home later!

Seeing how he leaves right after the wedding, by chance does he live in two houses? (T/N: keep a mistress)

Nanny!

Or not.

Where did Yeok rush off to?

I do not know.

Start taking her pulse.

Yes, Queen Dowager.

Yeok! Are you ok?

Is everything alright?

Where's Seo No?

He's not back yet. Why?

I think it's suspicious how they stopped the attack so easily earlier.

We may not have been the target in the first place.

Then, what would be the target?

Seo No.

What?

Seo No!

What about your father?

When I left briefly to get something to eat,

He left this letter and left.

There were no other movements? No one was tailing you or anything like that?

No, there weren't any suspicious movements.

Did he really just leave?

What the heck? He just left like this? Without telling you about the secret order?

Yes, that's right. The secret order. When he met you, he didn't talk about it?

- We didn't have time. - That's really strange.

It's not like he's mad at his son. Why did he suddenly leave like this?

Your Majesty, the Queen Dowager is here.

Tell her to come in.

What brings you here?

It seems like you got injured.

How did you notice that?

In a mother and son relationship, it's like a habit.

Even though I saw you from far away, your injury caught my eye.

What a bad habit.

How did you get hurt?

I got hurt while hunting.

I thought it was a helpless deer, but it turned out to be a wolf.

So what happened?

Did you catch the wolf?

I will catch it soon. Once I catch it, I will skin its hide

and present it to you, Queen Dowager.

You should stop with the act of a worried mother. Please leave.

I don't know what he's plotting. Even his face had been wounded and to stay still like this—

By any chance, did it seem like he found out about the secret order?

I just got the impression that he's waiting to pick on Yeok.

For the time being, I secretly bought off a court lady in the king's chambers.

She said she will immediately report if something is out of the ordinary. Let's just wait.

I'm only getting married once in my life, just this once!

Something urgent just came up. I'll be back. See you at home later!

I guarantee that you will soon start to suspect Yeok.

Young Lady!

Whether your husband takes this off or whether I take this off, it's the same thing.

Your neck will be hurting. Stay still!

- Seriously, that person who's supposed to be your husband— - Stop!

My thoughts are already complicated enough as it is.

Has it been a month or two since you've been married?

He looks so well-mannered but he acts so...if I were you, I would break both of his legs.

Madam, it's Eunuch Song.

You're here, Your Majesty.

I came because I thought I had prepared everything but it seems I forgot something.

These are herbs and ointments to use in emergencies.

I'm honored, Your Majesty. How did you even think of preparing this?

Recently, there have been many incidents where Yeok has been injured

and it seems those incidents will continue in the future too.

It seems you also had such an incident, Your Majesty.

By any chance, did you two fight?

Fight? Who fought? Yeok and I?

I heard that brothers grow up fighting each other.

Brothers?

Was Yeok injured too?

After the wedding ceremony, I couldn't even take a proper look at his face.

But, did you truly come all the way here to give us that?

Of course not.

Did you forget our promise? You said you would become a spy.

Shouldn't I earn His Highness the Grand Prince's trust first?

If I wish to know something from my opponent,

I have to earn his trust first. For now—

Rather than earning Yeok's trust,

isn't it more urgent to earn my trust first?

You will have to prove that you will not go against my wishes and fulfill your role as a spy.

Yesterday, I visited the pawn shop Yeok is said to visit often

but something quite strange happened.

When I went to the pawn shop, Yeok definitely wasn't there

but 30 minutes after I left, Yeok came out of the pawn shop.

According to the words of my subordinate who was monitoring the pawn shop, no one entered during that time.

No matter how much I think about it, that pawn shop is suspicious.

Aren't you also curious as to what Yeok is hiding?

Still, you never know, so contact the Snail Brides and find Seo No's father.

By the way, what about Yu Ja Gwang?

Did you meet the gisaeng who's supposedly his concubine?

We're planning to finish it up tonight.

Yeah, leave Seo No's father and Yu Ja Gwang to us. Don't worry about this place and go home.

It is your wedding night.

I'm fine.

- Then, please work hard. - Yes!

It's your first night together, at least buy her some flowers.

I heard that if you get on her bad side on your wedding night, you'll have a hard time for the rest of your life.

This is late but congratulations on your marriage, Hyungnim.

I only have you guys.

God, you scared me!

You're late. I guess those flowers are a present you brought me to apologize.

W-what a shame, you already changed.

Aren't I supposed to take off your ceremonial dress and bridal headpiece?

Since when were we the type to care about such etiquette?

That was before we were married, isn't it? Now that we are married—

So you came late because we're married now.

Do you already crave your freedom?

My Chae Gyeong, you even know how to tease.

I still have a long way to go to catch up to you, my Highness the Grand Prince.

Did you just s-say my Highness the Grand Prince?

His Majesty also left us with a present.

Brother—

By any chance, are you sick or injured somewhere?

No, I'm fine!

You haven't eaten dinner yet, have you? I'll prepare your meal.

Did she notice?

Ah...you see, this is...

Of course. Did I say anything about it?

The person I want to trust,

However,

Because it hurts me more.

Young Lady, dinner is served!

I'm sorry, Seo No.

I'm leaving your side once again.

What can we do when the fates of people like us depend on the decisions of those above?

Father, I brought food...

You will follow my will and protect Grand Prince Jin Seong

please continue to not waver and walk firmly on your path.

My courageous and precious son

thank you and I'm sorry.

I was able to have at least one meal with you.

Did you leave something here?

Yeah.

Why are you looking at me that way?

Is it because of this?

This is just a letter that my father left me. If you can't believe me—

Who said anything to you?

I'm pretty sure he was able to leave safely.

Pardon?

I just said that your father probably left safely.

So I'm telling you not to worry.

Could it be that you're getting back at me for being late?

My father told me that the reason why home cooking tastes good is because of my mother.

He said that it tastes good regardless of skill because of the deep consideration for family that goes into it.

I hope you would be like that too, Your Highness.

The meal shouldn't be tasty because of the side dishes

but I would like it to be because I made the side dishes for you.

Because it is filled with my feelings for you.

Alright. I will come home and eat a home cooked meal no matter what.

You probably are the one that thinks about me the most in this whole world

so the rice you cook for me will be the best in the world.
