The sun beginning to rise.
Prince Liam and Olena woke up to the ray of light through their windows. She faced the mirror and see a reflection of Prince Liam. She realized she is still in the body of Prince Liam. Prince Liam touched his breast. Likewise, he realized they are still lingering in the wrong body. Both of them furiously looked at the sky and start cursing the jade emperor. "You could have put us back into our own body!"
They met in the courtyard of the Imperial Palace. Sighed in disappointment. "Let's just proceed with the wedding". Prince Liam persuades the prime minister and his wife to meet the royal consort to discuss the wedding.
The prime minister agreed. He brings Prince Liam and his wife to meet the Royal Consort Mariot at the Imperial Palace to discuss the wedding.
The royal consort still unhappy about the marriage deep in her heart, but she supported her son. Thinking about how she held a funeral for him recently, she would rather hold a wedding for him.
Royal consort holds the hand of Prince Liam, "I welcomed you to be my daughter-in-law. Please look after my precious son". She gave her favourite piece of jewellery given by the king to Prince Liam. Prince Liam knew it was the royal consort's most favourite jewellery. He feels emotional and hugged the royal consort.
In the Eastern Palace, the crown prince's residence, Crown Prince Noel is excited that he finally gets to have Julia sleeping next to her. He married Farah and Julia on the same day. However, on the wedding night, he stays with Julia for consummation.
"I love you, Julia! I hope to spend the rest of my life with you." Crown Prince Noel whispered to Julia.
Farah spent the entire night in her chamber alone. She got angry when she found out Crown Prince Noel is in Julia's chamber. She removed her bridal veil and cried on her bed.
The Imperial Palace held a grand wedding for Prince Liam, the second line of succession to the throne of Shilla and Olena, the daughter of the prime minister. With their prominence background, both of them receive plenty of luxurious betrothal gifts from the nobles.
Citizens flocked to the street to cheer as Prince Liam's carriage appeared to pass by them, travelling from the prime minister's manor to the palace in a prominently decorated carriage.
During the wedding rituals, Prince Liam complains to Olena "I feel awkward to dress up in a women's gown. This highly embroidered red silk wedding gown is much more uncomfortable to wear!"
Olena soon settles into the palace, sharing a chamber with Prince Liam.
In the chamber decorated in red fabrics, Prince Liam removes the bridal Veil from his head, stands up from the bed, and informs Olena to work on a plan.
He knew Olena is someone vastly educated, "We can't waste more time! Let's plan on something."
Olena asked Prince Liam, "But why do you think they would want to poison you?"
Prince Liam replied to Olena, "Crown Prince Noel. He has committed a lot of crimes that trigger madness in the ministers. They wouldn't agree to the crown prince being enthroned as the next king. As I am the second in line to the throne, he feels the threat. The battle for the crown prince title has always been fierce. I do not have a desire to be king. I wish to have freedom."
Olena thinks back about what the king mentioned to her earlier. The prime minister might be the culprit who plans for the murder of Prince Liam, "The king suspected my father is the culprit. Do you suspect my father is the culprit?"
Prince Liam responded energetically, "If I knew the prime minister is the person who kills me, I would have punished him by beheading him and his entire family. Why would I marry you to plan for an investigation together?"
Prince Liam walks toward his bed, lays down, and takes out a rectangular jade pillow, and puts it next to him on the bed, "I have no desire to keep you as my lifetime companion. I can't share my bed with you. There is a couch over there. You can sleep there."
Olena crosses her finger, keeps the faith in her father, "First thing, we need to find out who is the Eunuch and the physician. I have promised the king that I will investigate this issue and prove the innocence of my father."
The next morning, Olena and Prince Liam visit the king, queen, royal consort, and royal family members in a hall. As a tradition of the newlywed, they will conduct a tea ceremony.
When they reached the hall, royal family members were sitting on the seats. Olena and Prince Liam took a teapot from the tray that the palace maid is holding. They kneel on each of the elder royal family to serve them tea.
After they had finished going through the teacup ceremony, they went out for a stroll together around the palace. Prince Liam and Olena try to find the evil Eunuch and physician.
After walking for many hours, they sighed, exhausted, "Do you know how to draw? You can sketch out their faces on the paper."
Olena uses her palm to hit her forehead, "Why didn't I think about drawing their faces! Such a waste of time walking around."
They walk back to their chamber. Using a pen and brush, Olena drew out the face of the Eunuch. From the drawing, he found a clue. He knows the culprit is Crown Prince Noel.
Prince Liam glared at the drawing, "This Eunuch works for the crown prince Noel. Crown Prince Noel and the queen have many excellent swordsmen. We need to recruit more people to help us!"
Consorts of Crown Prince Noel gathered in a hall to greet Queen Aliyah. The courtier announced the royal edict from the king. He will promote Julia as the crown princess.
The consorts congratulated Julia for the promotion. Despite the smiles on their faces, their hearts are burning.
Queen Aliyah noticed that Farah is not happy. She made it very obvious to everyone that Farah is her favourite choice, even though she does not have the crown princess title.
Julia is getting afraid. She would rather have the love from her mother-in-law than the crown princess title. She tried her best to please her, but Queen Aliyah refused to meet her. Often rejected her by saying she isn't feeling well. Julia knows Farah is spending her time with the queen.
The sun has set, and it brings out the curtain of nightfall in the sky. It was cold and drizzling.
In the eastern palace, Crown Prince Noel came to Julia's chamber to sleep. She highlighted to the crown prince that the queen was ignoring her and treated her coldly. He comforted her and gave her some advice, like preparing an enjoyable meal for the queen. It could help to win her heart.
In the longevity palace, Prince Liam gasped for air like he's drowning. After he observed the massive changes in his chamber, he got mad with the congestion. Olena's belongings are lying everywhere in the room. His desire to maintain a minimalist type of chamber has ruined.
Thinking deeply in his mind, he wonders if he has made a wrong decision on this marriage.
Prince Liam grabbed the dress from the floor to throw it to the side of the chamber. He complained, "You have many beautiful dresses, but none of it is comfortable to wear. You basically took your whole chamber into the palace. I can barely walk with your belongings lying around here and there!"
Olena cast her eyes down. She defended herself, "You are the one who asked me to marry you. Instead of babbling at my belongings, why don't you prioritize the investigation? I am still waiting to hear from you about the plan."
Prince Liam scratched his head, "Definitely need a couple of people who have good martial art skills. The queen has a lot of excellent fighters who are working for her as personal bodyguards. Probably someone with good medicine skills."
While they were having their dinner together in the chamber. Olena gives a blazing gaze towards Prince Liam.
She sees a strain of hairs touching the bowl of soup that he was slurping, "You are so messy" but he ignores."
Olena grabbed the bowl of soup from him, put it on the table, stood up and requested him to sit still.
She removes the hairpin from his hair, combs his hair, pulls his hair gently and helps him to tie a ponytail.
While she is touching his hair, he gets turned on, but it quickly turns off as soon as she nags, "Please do not be messy! I have to keep my reputation. Do you like it if I wear sloppy clothes?" she continues babbling whilst he continues to ignore.
