As the game continued, Prince Uiseong managed to bring Seo Ham Deok in front of the King but revealed his plan of treason. The King was disappointed at his action, stating that he shouldn't bring a traitor into the palace.
Meanwhile, his mother has planned to expose Grand Prince Gyesong's secret by calling Consort Hwang and asking her to reveal the portrait which has an image of the young royal as a woman.
Fortunately, Consort Ko and the Queen have planned an action to prevent Grand Prince Gyesong's secret from being exposed.
During the interrogation, the Queen entered the room and called out Consort Hwang for slandering her son's name.
At that moment, the King saw the portrait but it was not Grand Prince Gyesong but a painting of an animal, causing confusion to Consort Hwang.
With this, the Queen asked permission from the King to punish the concubine for tarnishing the name of the Grand Prince.
From first royal consort, she was demoted to fourth consort, the lowest rating for a concubine.
