### Summary
Following a brief, intense encounter, Emperor Garyun is consumed by an obsessive search for the mysterious woman "Yeon," who is secretly his most trusted general, Lokheun, in a magically altered disguise. The dramatic irony of the situation is palpable as readers anticipate Garyun will order Lokheun to find herself. This "chasing arc" is deepened by the revelation that the encounter was a first for the seemingly experienced emperor, whose subsequent dream of love and family leaves him heartbroken upon waking. The court's political machinations add to the tension, as a "Granny" figure and Garyun himself openly dismiss the unfavored "viper concubine," Mirang, as a potential empress. Meanwhile, Lokheun is forced to maintain her boyish facade, enduring Garyun's cold questioning and the pain of watching him be pressured to choose a bride. As speculation mounts that a unique mark may act as a "Cinderella shoe," the audience eagerly awaits the disastrous moment of discovery when Garyun realizes the woman he fell for is the same subordinate he has relentlessly pushed through hellish training.
