King is Not Easy Episode 4 Recap
> King is Not Easy Recap
Da Xi wanted to ease the relationship between the King and the Empress Dowager, but unfortunately, the King wouldn't listen at all and even scolded her angrily. After scolding her, the King left without looking back. Da Xi, watching the King leave, had another fit of infatuation, thinking that even the way the King scolded people was so handsome.
In order to help the King and the Empress Dowager ease their mother-son relationship, Da Xi came to the Empress Dowager's palace to pay her respects. The Empress Dowager was overjoyed to see her son becoming so filial. Seeing the Empress Dowager happy, Da Xi seized the opportunity and told her that she would definitely be a good king who was diligent in administration and loved the people in the future. The Empress Dowager was very gratified after hearing this.
Da Xi returned to her palace and, seeing that the King hadn't gone to review the memorials today, went to the King's palace. She specially went to the kitchen to cook dishes to make the King happy. After the two had eaten, the King warned Da Xi that if she continued to get too close to the Empress Dowager, he would have to keep a distance from her. Da Xi was puzzled and pressed him for the reason.
The King, seeing that Da Xi was quite concerned about him, told her the reason. It turned out that after the King's father passed away, the Empress Dowager had an affair with the Regent. Once, the two of them were together and happened to be seen by the King. Because he had contradicted the Regent, the King was punished by the Empress Dowager to kneel. Sometimes, the Empress Dowager even hit himself in order to please the Regent.
As the King grew older, his power was still in the hands of the Empress Dowager. He then made up his mind to take back the power bit by bit. So he designed to kill the Regent and ordered his head to be sent to the Empress Dowager, wanting to see her reaction and take the opportunity to regain power.
Unfortunately, the Empress Dowager stumped the King with a few questions, which meant that he couldn't take back the power yet. After hearing this, Da Xi hugged the King, promising to keep a distance from the Empress Dowager in the future and to be a good king. The two frolicked for a while, and their relationship improved further. After court, Da Xi met the Empress Dowager halfway.
The Empress Dowager wanted to share some tasks for her son, but Da Xi thought that she had promised the King to keep a distance from the Empress Dowager, so she politely refused. The Empress Dowager noticed something unusual and thought that someone had made the King angry. She wanted to order a maid to investigate. The maid saw this and enlightened the Empress Dowager, so the Empress Dowager no longer pursued the matter.
Da Xi came to the training ground and saw Shao Yong training the soldiers. That posture, that movement, she was simply mesmerized. Da Xi couldn't control herself at all and reached out to touch Shao Yong whenever she had the chance. When she touched Shao Yong's hand, she instantly felt as if her whole body was paralyzed and couldn't extricate herself. Da Xi's actions also made Shao Yong very scared.
Shao Yong seemed very resistant and found an excuse to retreat away from the King. The poor Shao Yong was even ridiculed by several guards when he returned to his palace. The next day, when he went out to train, Shao Yong was restless, still thinking about what happened yesterday. Could it be that the King really wanted to plot against him? The more he thought about it, the more afraid he became.
But the more afraid you are, the more likely things are to happen. Here comes Da Xi again. When Shao Yong saw Da Xi, he was so nervous that he didn't dare to raise his head. After reluctantly greeting Da Xi, he found an excuse to go back to the training ground to demonstrate movements for the guards. Unexpectedly, due to lack of concentration, he accidentally slipped and fell to the ground, landing flat on his face.
