Plots Beneath Silk Curtains - Episode 4

After wiping Sam’s sweat and swearing to protect him, a young woman sets off with companions. On the road they haggle over travel costs, rent a fine carriage, and plan food and lodging. Back home her mother inspects the facial scar and praises her: she found the Mystic Ginseng and saved the Third Prince, who promised to marry her when healed. As the family celebrates the promised grand wedding, someone suddenly bursts in, yelling, “Shameless witch! Give back my ginseng!” The accusation threatens her reward and forces an immediate confrontation.
