100 Days My Prince Episode 2 Recap<\/h2>\n

Lee Yul\u2019s found out who\u2019s been trying to poison him and why. Crown Princess Kim Seo Hee is pregnant; and it\u2019s definitely not Lee Yul\u2019s, because according to Lee Yul, they haven\u2019t so much as held hands let alone slept together.<\/p>\n

The female physician known as Song Sun (Keum Chae An) had been killed, but investigations Lee Yul received from Capital District Office\u2019s Jung Jae Yoon (Kim Sun Ho) revealed Song Sun had been suspiciously promoted to the Crown Princess\u2019 chambers to serve as her personal physician following a cancelled medical check-up which Lee Yul recall her doing. This led him to investigate the Crown Princess\u2019 medical records which revealed she not only missed one monthly medical check-up, but two. When Lee Yul brings in his own physician to take her pulse, the Crown Princess shows great reluctance and makes up an excuse about having indigestion to avoid it from been read. Lee Yul doesn\u2019t force the matter. He is now sure she is behind his poisoning and her being pregnant is the reason why.<\/p>\n

Although the fact isn\u2019t definitively confirmed between Lee Yul and the Crown Princess, it\u2019s confirmed between the Crown Princess and the Vice Premier. With Lee Yul now onto them, the safety of their positions in the palace is under threat. So, in order for this matter to remain hidden (and the baby to be passed off as Lee Yul\u2019s), the Crown Prince must be killed.<\/p>\n

Lee Yul and his entourage is ambushed and shot with arrows during their trek up the mountain to take part in the rain ritual. The attack appears to be a success. Everyone was shot dead and the assassin charged with killing Lee Yul personally saw his shot go into the heart of the Crown Prince. His body is also now over the cliff\u2019s edge and floating lifelessly in the water below.<\/p>\n

However, unknown to the assassins, the man they got isn\u2019t the Crown Prince but the Crown Prince\u2019s loyal guard and friend, Dong Joo (Do Ji Han). While laying low in a ditch, Dong Joo had forced Lee Yul to change out of his royal robe and into his clothes so they would think he was the Crown Prince and the Crown Prince was his guard.<\/p>\n

Lee Yul may not have gone over the cliff\u2019s edge and most likely dead, but he isn\u2019t fearing too much better. Lee Yul was shot, too, and was sent rolling down the hill over a sharp rock which catches his head. Thanks to Hong Shim\u2019s adopted father (who discovers him and brings him back to his place to recover), Lee Yul survives. However, when he wakes, he remembers nothing. He doesn\u2019t know who he is, where he\u2019s from, or how he got hurt.<\/p>\n

With Lee Yul having no memory of his own identity, Hong Shim\u2019s father makes him Won Deuk, the guy Hong Shim is engaged to. He didn\u2019t save Lee Yul for this reason, but time had run out for Hong Shim to get married and she was being flogged for still being single. Lee Yul had never mentioned anything about the punishment for anyone who remained single after the deadline, but it was used by the officials at her village because an old clingy nobleman\u2014who goes by the name of Park Sun Do (Ahn Suk Hwan)\u2014wanted to make her his concubine and was using the deadline as an excuse to beat her into agreeing.<\/p>\n

Yeon Hong Shim was not a weak woman. She took dozens of beatings and still didn\u2019t submit. She continued to take the floggings till Lee Yul shows up before the town officials and introduced by Hong Shim\u2019s father as the Won Deuk who\u2019s returned from the military and the one Hong Shim said she is marrying.<\/p>\n

Hong Shim gets interrogated by Jung Jae Yoon after seeing her dash back on the bridge where both he and Lee Yul were on. It makes Hong Shim think she\u2019s in danger of being discovered. As the daughter of a traitor, she can\u2019t be found. However, the reason for Jung Jae Yoon\u2019s questioning isn\u2019t what she thinks. From that sight of her standing under the cherry blossom tree, Jung Jae Yoon\u2019s developed an interest in her.<\/p>\n

Lee Yul uses his birthday to find out who killed the female physician, requesting arrows as gifts. He initially suspected the Queen, but half-brother, Prince Seo Won, didn\u2019t bring the same ones used to kill the female physician. The person who did, the Vice Premier, has Lee Yul wonder why he\u2019d want to kill him. This is how it led Lee Yul to suspecting and investigating the Crown Princess.<\/p>\n

Crown Princess tries to get Lee Yul to consummate the marriage and use it as the night the baby in her stomach was conceived. Lee Yul can\u2019t do it, though. He tells her his heart can’t persuade his body to do it. It\u2019s a loveless marriage. Interestingly, the episode reveals it was Lee Yul who had suggested the marriage for show.<\/p>\n

Suspecting the Crown Princess at this point, Lee Yul has his own physician take the Crown Princess\u2019 pulse. She, of course, isn\u2019t cooperative, which confirms Lee Yul\u2019s suspicions that she\u2019s pregnant with another man\u2019s baby, and lets her know he knows.<\/p>\n
