The Tale of Nokdu Episode 21 Recap

Suddenly, the king found the old couple who had collected the bodies of Dongzhu’s family. The old couple dared not lift their eyes in fright under the dragon’s might. The king asked aggressively, but the old lady stopped her wife and lied to the king that the family was dead, including the wife and young lady. Upon seeing this, the king had to ask the old couple to lead him to the grave to find out. Quan Mung Bean and Dong Dongzhu, who had expressed their hearts to each other , took advantage of the rain to clear and returned to their previous residence. Once home, Master Huang led a strange face out. This person claimed that the palace came specifically to find Dongzhu. It turned out that that night the king mentioned Dongzhu to the middle hall empress, and the middle hall empress wanted to bring Dongzhu into the palace. The stone walls in the palace were so high that Dongzhu’s heart suddenly became tense.

Wang Shang brought the two widows of the Wuyue Regiment and Huang Er to the cell, and Da Ti Xue was immediately surprised when he saw the two men. When he was even more surprised, the two widows said in public that Da Tixue had killed people in the widow village. Che Luwu added fuel to the fire. He told the king that the person who was hiding in the widow village was the king’s illegitimate son. In order to destroy the whereabouts of the prince, he slaughtered the village. Huang Er also echoed Che Luwu, saying that when his brother, the prince, was on the island, he said that he wanted to replace the king many times.

After the king heard these words, his face instantly became as pale as pig liver. He severely pulled the collar of Da Tixue and asked why he treated himself like this. Now that he has reached this point, Da Ti Xue has also said what he has hidden in his heart, and he denounces the king of consolidating his throne by eliminating dissidents. The more Wang Shang listened, the more angry he became. For a while, he was so angry that he stabbed to death with his own hands. When the king realized that, Da Ti Xue had already driven Hexi.

Quanmungdou received a new task, which was to follow the two old couples up the mountain to find the grave of Dongzhu’s family. After finding a hill, Quan Mung Bean sent out two old couples. Before leaving, the old couple told Quan Mungdou that the grave they were looking for belonged to the family of Liu Yanqing, but now they learned that the family had been destroyed because of the crime of treason. When Quan Mung Bean returned to the palace, he saw Dongzhu, and he quickly stepped forward to help. After the two made an appointment, Quan Mung Bean was very happy. In order to avoid people’s suspicion, Dongzhu hurried away all mung beans. But when Dongzhu opened the bedding, all mung beans suddenly appeared in front of him. When Dongzhu came back to his senses, he had already put on a ring made of flowers.

After coming out of the prison, Wang Shang was upset, and happened to run into Quan Mung Bean, so he invited him to chat in the palace. The king still didn’t know that Quan Mung Bean was the son he wanted to kill at the beginning. At this time, he only saw him as a teenager who met on the street and then became a year-end friend. The king confided to Quan Mung Bean, he felt that he was wrong at the beginning, and since that day, he has had nightmares every night. When Quan Mung Bean heard the words of the king, his eyes suddenly became rosy, but when he just wanted to ask about that year, the king was actually drunk.

In his sleep, the king actually dreamed of killing Datixue with his own hands, and also dreamed of what happened many years ago-at that time, a witch told him that the emperor who was born in the winter solstice would become the king in the future. He fought the battle for his father, but in the end he was forced to give the king to a grandson who had not yet come to the world. His heart was very unhappy and resentful. What made him even more unexpected was that the next king chosen by heaven was actually his own son. After waking up from the nightmare, the king saw the whole mung bean guarding him.
