[Spoiler] 'Splendid Politics' Lee Yeon-hee saves herself from being poisoned

On the June 16th episode of MBC's "Splendid Politics", Gae-si (Kim Yeo-jin) attempted to poison Jeongmyeong (Lee Yeon-hee) to death. Gae-si incited a physician in the palace. The physician told Jeongmyeong to come to a clinic in the palace. Although Jeongmyeong felt something suspicious was going on, she went to the clinic.

The physician gave a poisoned potion to her. When Jeongmyeong asked what it was, he said "It's to protect man's energy" and then he lied that it was prescribed by the physician in charge of Jeongmyeong.

While Jeongmyeong knew the physician in charge of her was aware she was a woman, she realized what the physician in front of her saying did not match her understanding. She pretended she was finishing the potion. And then she straightforwardly asked him, "Who ordered you to kill me".

Meanwhile, Gwanghae (Cha Seung-won) revealed Jeongmyeong's true identity to Gae-si.
