Queen For Seven Days (7일의 왕비)

How long were you planning to hide?

Didn't you feel apologetic when you saw me running after you like a fool?

Until when was I planning to deceive you?

You're dense, stubborn, nosy for no reason, and don't have any fear whatsoever.

Look at this! Whenever I'm with you, I get entangled in dangerous affairs!

If Yeok, that bastard, is still alive, why hasn't he appeared in front of me?

Why is he hiding?

He wants to get revenge and take the throne for himself.

Episode 8

Join the guards of the Chief Royal Secretary and monitor their movements.

Even if we have to use that Sin wench more,

force Grand Prince Jin Seong to come.

What about tying her up in front of the marketplace?

Tie her in front of the marketplace?

They said that if she was tied up, Grand Prince Jin Seong wouldn't be able to ignore her.

Their words are right. Simply hearing of the news

and personally witnessing her suffering is different.

His Highness the Grand Prince must appear

for this fight to end.

Or...

Or?

Sin Chae Gyeong

can disappear.

You endured in this condition?

Please don't come.

You can't come.

It would be better

that you'll be thanking me

because this medicine will end your suffering.

What are you doing?

Why are you here?

What's with your attire?

I came because

I was worried.

Me too. I came because I was worried for Orabeoni Nak Cheon.

I wanted to monitor her, in case she opened her mouth.

Just as you're here in that attire because you can't sit still,

I had the same intentions, so don't think of creating a fuss.

What are you doing?!

Exactly how did you get in here?

Let go of me! Release me! You're not going to release me?

Well, since you have both money and connections, this wouldn't be a big deal.

Did you get permission from Orabeoni to come here?

Don't talk of him.

Ah, you two must have fought.

Drag her out!

Don't do anything reckless. One wrong move and Sin Chae Gyeong will die too.

You know that, right?

I know that much too.

Look here!

Look here!

Where are you dragging me off to?

Look here!

If you confess the whereabouts of that thief now,

I'll allow you to return home immediately.

Why are you trying so hard to catch him?!

We're chasing a traitor who stole the royal offerings meant for His Majesty the King.

Do we need another reason?

You can't come. You'll die if you come.

Please leave.

You have to drink at least one sip to endure.

Thank you for the offer,

but I'm fine.

We're set to ambush.

Spread the rumors as far and as fast as possible.

That scoundrel has to hear of this news to come here.

I understand, Sir.

Um, you know,

I think the reason he hasn't shown himself yet

is because of the poison.

Poison?

Just in case, we shot poisoned arrows. If he hasn't taken the antidote,

he should be intoxicated to the point where it would be difficult to move a limb.

He's someone who survived after being stabbed and rolled off a cliff.

Poison or whatever, do not assume anything.

Regardless of what happens, this time,

I will personally confirm his last breath with my own two eyes.

Yes, Sir.

Royal Offerings Record Book

Exactly why did you do something so reckless?

You have to restrain yourself and wait for the right time.

While waiting for that right time,

you lost a son.

I am planning to find a path that suits me.

Why do you want the organized records of the royal offerings?

I have a use for them.

Um, I thought about it meticulously...

- You fought with Seo No on purpose, didn't you? - Yes.

Yes?

No.

No? I'm sure it's not a "no."

I mean, it's obvious what Seo No will do from now on

and seeing you use that as a weapon,

you want him to protect Sin Chae Gyeong in your place.

Are you alright?

They don't call this Large Flower Motherwort for nothing.

Large Flower Motherwort?

It's known as Asian Lizard's tail.

It has a naturally strong scent when it's used to treat poison—

By any chance, were you poisoned?

Was someone poisoned?

By any chance, were the arrows those bastards shot back then poisoned?

Wait a minute. You have a fever too.

Where?

Wow, that's intense! Aren't you dizzy?

- With a temperature this high, your head should be spinning! - Doctor...

call the doctor! Quickly!

He just has a fever. What's with the crybaby act? He could call the doctor himself.

Ugh, my life!

Quickly, quickly!

Come quickly!

- What is this ruckus? - Time is ticking!

So this poison can kill you?

It's not enough to instantly kill someone but it can become dangerous if not treated in time.

Give me the antidote.

You're suffering from the side effects of the detoxification process,

so you don't need the antidote.

If you cure it through herbal tonics, you'll gradually recover.

There's someone else who was shot by this poisoned arrow.

I'm not a royal physician, just a neighborhood physician. How could I have such an antidote?

It'll take at least 1/2 a day to gather the herbs and at least 2 days to create the antidote.

Hyungnim. Hyungnim.

Young Lady Chae Gyeong, she...

Still, are you planning to run away when someone is tied to the cross?

Before the poison kills her, she'll be shot dead by the guard's arrows!

Still, I can't just sit still and do nothing.

She could faint anytime but she's tied to the cross!

She won't be able to endure another day. The poison will spread!

That's why we're saying this!

Yeah, let's say that we battle the palace guards,

lose a few of our men's lives, and save that woman.

How can we save her when we don't have the antidote? We can't find a royal physician either!

He said that it'll take at least another day to make the antidote!

Even if we have the antidote, it'll be of no use.

Young Lady Chae Gyeong refuses to drink even a sip of water.

She seemed as if... she was determined to die.

I was shot by arrows, stabbed by a sword,

and after I took my last breath, I rolled off a cliff.

What do you think?

If you wish for me to die again, just stop anyone to ask for help

Young Lady Chae Gyeong seemed as if she was determined to die.

Still, it's a relief

I was worried that I had given my heart to some strange man.

I won't protect you either.

Your Majesty!

Assassin! Catch him!

Sin Chae Gyeong is dead at So-eui Gate.

Thank you for killing her in my place.

Dead? Who's dead?!

Sin Chae Gyeong is dead.

Thank you for killing her in my place.

Race faster!

Hurry! Hurry and go!

You probably thought she wouldn't die.

You have to know now.

You have to know what results from your misinformed decisions and judgment.

So-eui Gate

When I'm scared, I whistle like this.

Then, my heart calms down.

Your Highness the Grand Prince.

D-d-don't come, don't come!

No, no, n-no, please...

Don't come! Please...

Please, don't, no...

Please don't come! Please!

Halt!

Chae Gyeong! Sin Chae Gyeong!

Your Majesty...

Chae Gyeong...release her immediately! Hurry!

Yes, Your Majesty!

She'll be safe. Isn't that what you expected when you entrusted her to the King?

If it was any later, she might have been in danger.

What happened?

The wound from the poisoned arrow started festering

and the poison spread to her entire body.

Her body was not able to withstand the suffering in prison.

She has to live. She must live.

Yes, Your Majesty.

I will first bring the antidote.

Why did you endure until you got into this state? Why?

It's all my fault.

In order to catch the bastard pulling mischief in hiding, I let you fall into this state.

So, it would have been better if you told me earlier.

This would have been over if you just said the one phrase, "please help".

Give it here. I will feed it to her.

Y-Your Majesty.

Your Majesty. This is your Guard.

Chae Gyeong.

I am not sorry.

Since it's your fault for not keeping the promise.

Didn't you say you won't wait for me?

However, you probably waited.

You probably called my name thousands of times in your head.

Although you told me not to come, you must have waited for me to come.

Do you think I don't know you?
