The Treacherous Page #3

Drink quietly.

Soong-jae.

Are you so desperate for power?

Is it today? Your sister's

death anniversary.

When the king frequented her

room, I was often by his side.

What I heard weren't screams, but moans.

So why the suicide?

IM Soong-jae!

How does it feel!

To know that you bow down to the man

who raped your sister?

May I have another?

Are you confident that

you can serve the king?

I have experienced men of all kinds,

from nobles, farmers,

butchers, to even thugs.

Any man with balls intact,

I can wrap him in my skirt

and suck his soul out.

How dare you compare the king to peasants!

But isn't the king

also a man?

Overconfidence aside, you'll do.

Glad that she's to your liking.

I cannot tolerate the two IM's anymore.

I must regain my power,

so take special care, Minister YU!

Red!

It's red!

One word out of the king,

the red flag is raised.

Show yourself! Show yourself to me!

The one who'll comfort the

king will become Comforters!

The one who'll cleanse him,

will be the Consort!

It's not a formal court affair.

So it won't be guaranteed whether

the king will grace her.

But ultimately she'll serve the king.

Father!

Let me go!

Honey!

Daughters, wives, mistresses

were all requisitioned...

Wearing red uniform and taking girls away,

they were the grim reapers,

and not a single woman

was spotted on the street.

There are more than one way to find girls!

Oh no!

Your Majesty!

This young lady is destined to

become a queen!

Please stop.

Your Majesty!

Dammit.

- Come with us!

- Wait! Hold on!

So much chaos and shady deals.

One could not watch on without tearing up.

Virgin!

Virgins were marked red, while others blue.

The royal artist painted day and night,

turning teary faces into happy ones.

I think we have enough.

But the king will want

someone truly unique.

They are not enough to

win against the Consort.

If so...

there's one last place to visit.

NEUNGJU:

Enough!

Listen here.

Debt must be repaid with

money, what is this nonsense?

You moved up the deadline,

this was all I could muster.

So, didn't I say I'll void your debt

for a drink with your daughter.

Do you not understand?

I'll make her an orphan

and take her!

Who's this?

You haven't changed at all.

Your sharp tongue is

still the same.

Come in.

Come.

Father! Father!

Are you all right?

I heard you and my father were old friends.

We were indeed.

Time travels faster than an arrow.

I also heard you promised to

achieve greatness together!

Did we?

Well, it became difficult since

my father was dismissed.

You could've prevented his dismissal.

But instead, you spoke ill of him!

Checkmate.

Bad move.

Mind if I take back?
