Missing Crown Price Episode 7 [Spoilers] – What to expect?
Caution: everything beyond this point contains heavy spoilers for coming episodes
In the promo for episode 7, Myung Yoon is shown aiding Lee Gon, the deposed Crown Prince, in escaping from the palace guards. She mentions an idea that could help Lee Gon and his bodyguard, Gap Seok, cross the bridge. So, we can once again see Myung Yoon enlisting the help of her quirky friends to assist in their escape.
However, it seems that Myung Yoon may get injured in the process, as indicated by a scene in the promo where Lee Gon is seen carrying her on his shoulders, promising to save her. Additionally, in the next episode, Sang Rok will discover that despite his warning, Myung Yoon is still helping Lee Gon. This worries Sang Rok because if Myung Yoon is caught with the prince, all of Sang Rok’s efforts will go down the drain.
Meanwhile, the council votes to delay Do Sung’s investiture as the Crown Prince because the royal seal is missing. Grandfather Yoon will suggest to the Queen Dowager that they should forge the royal seal to officially appoint Do Sung as the Crown Prince.
