On this day, as Queen Inmok (Shin Eun-jung) recollected Gyeok-am's prophecy, "She will be entitled to a higher place as far as she is alive", she decided to hide Princess Jeongmyeong. While Gyeok-am's prophecy book was found and the Northern faction was eying on Grand Prince Yeongchang (Jeon Jin-seo), Queen Inmok used the timing to hide Princess Jeongmyeong.

Queen Inmok said "You're a very precious child. Long time ago, I heard from someone that you would become a very big and important person later on. So please do not forget this. And remeber your young brother, Yeongchang. Please survive and get your young brother back and resolve the deep sorrow on behalf of your mother".

Princess Jeongmyeong dressed up in boy's clothes and slipped out of the palace accompanying a few court ladies. However she was being chased down by Lee I-cheom and ended up escaping alone in a boat.

Lady Kim Gae-sh (Kim Yeo-jin) later figured it out the owner of the prophecy was Princess Jeongmyeong and then she started chasing after her in order to kill her in the end.
