Ryeowoon pointed a knife at Jeong Geon-ju’s neck. “Was it you?”

In the 12th episode of the SBS Monday-Tuesday drama 'The Romance of a Flower Scholar', which aired on the 25th, the fateful encounter between Kang San (played by Ryeo-woon) and Jeong Yu-ha (played by Jeong Geon-ju), hidden brothers who were predicted to compete for the throne, was unfolded in detail.
Kang San said to Yoon Dan-oh (played by Shin Ye-eun), “You must stand on Joo-sang’s side,” and told him to convey the false report to Lee Chang (played by Hyeon-woo) that a watchman had appeared and tried to harm him. At the same time, Jeong Yoo-ha met Daebi (played by Nam Ki-ae) under the guidance of Shin Won-ho (played by Nae-sang Nae-sang). Jeong Yoo-ha told Hwaryeong (played by Han Chae-ah) that she felt guilty about the queen dowager who thought she was Lee Seol and hugged her with tears in her eyes. Hwaryeong comforted her by saying, "You have a grandson too. Even if you had met me in person, you would have cried with joy." It was announced that Lee Seol had finally appeared.
Yoon Dan-oh, who went to the palace, revealed to Lee Chang that as per Kang San's plan, while searching for Lee Seol under the orders of Jang Tae-hwa (played by Oh Man-seok), he was intimidated by the deposed crown prince's bodyguard not to look for Lee Seol. In response, Lee Chang was agitated to learn that the crown prince's bodyguard, whom everyone thought was dead, was alive, and Yoon Dan-o took advantage of this to leak information that the Songbang merchant, who had laundered his identity as a Gaeseong merchant, was the deposed crown prince's bodyguard, and was promised the safety of himself and his family. Kang San, who was comfortably returning to the Summer Palace, hugged Yoon Dan-oh tightly and expressed his gratitude, and Yoon Dan-oh whispered, "I have to decide on a signal," and decided on a signal of affection for the two of them, creating excitement.
Arriving at the Summer Palace, Yoon Dan-oh told Yook Yuk-ho (played by In Gyo-jin), "If you succeed, you will become king, and if you fail, you will become a traitor." I heard Mama's worries that one of the two will definitely become one, but he will not give up his will. It was revealed that it was. On the other hand, Jeong Yoo-ha noticed the abnormal air flow between Yoon Dan-oh, Kang San, and Yuk Yuk-ho, and when Yuk Yuk-ho and Na Ju-daek (played by Lee Mi-do) left, he insinuatedly asked Kang San, "Samhan Biggi. Is it because of the picture drawn there?" However, Kang San got into a fight and said, "I heard you burned it once. If you look at it, you are really good at it. That's a lie."
Kang San told Yuk Yuk-ho that Dan-oh Yoon was the one who kept him alive until now, and that he had no intention of abandoning Dan-oh Yoon to achieve his cause, and made a strong warning to Yuk Yuk-ho, telling him to change who he was if Dan-oh Yoon became dangerous. Also, Kang San lured Dan-Oh Yoon outside with the sound of a cat crying, and when Dan-Oh Yoon said, "What should I do? Every time the cat cries, I'll think of you," he jumped over the fence and showed his affection by kissing her, saying, "I'll save the longer kisses." “Let’s do it,” he said, expressing his will to protect the cause and love at the same time.
Kang San instructed Kim Chi-woon (played by Bae Hyun-kyung) to put a flue in the pond at the Summer Palace in case of an emergency, and Sang-seon (played by Lee Jun-hyuk) helped Kang San and reported to Lee Chang that Lee Pyeong's guard was Kim Ga and identified Kim Chi-woon. Soon, Sang-seon emphasized to Kang-san, "This time, I saved Mama's life," and not to forget the promise that he would save her if his life was threatened. He also raised doubts by asking why Yoon Dan-oh would do this. The next day, Naegeum Inspector Yoon Gu-nam (played by Choi Tae-hwan) came in as a new boarder, and announced that he had come to check on Yoon Dan-o's well-being at the order of Naegeum Inspector Kim Hwan (played by Joo Seok-tae).
When Naegeumwijang gave his order, Kang San took Dano Yoon to the bamboo forest and taught him how to shoot an archery, saying with a grim expression, "I want you to be safe even when I'm not around." Dano Yoon expressed his affection, saying, “Brother, teach me slowly. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, by my side.” Afterwards, he acted like a chicken in front of Kim Si-yeol (played by Kang Hoon) and Yoon Hong-joo (played by Jo Hye-joo), who was dressed as a man, and burst into laughter when they met at a tavern. Also, Kim Chi-woon, who was invited to the Mokinhoe meeting, was surprised to see that Jeong Yu-ha had a donggot, a token of succession, and sent a gift to Kang San.
However, Jeong Yu-ha confirmed the connection first, and Kang San, who belatedly read the letter, was shocked to learn that the head of the Mokinhoe was trying to ascend the throne by impersonating Seson, his name was Lee Gyeom, and he and Kang San were brothers. Kang San immediately decided to find out about the Mokinhoe, and Jeong Yoo-ha asked Yoon Dan-oh, “Is San really Lee Seol, a descendant of a wealthy family?” But when Yoon Dan-oh avoided answering and asked him to pretend not to know, he said, “No, what I want is you.” “It’s your safety. Dano,” he raised his voice, causing anxiety to soar.
Kang San, who had been following Jeong Yu-ha, had his pupils shake as he heard the voice of the masked man in front of him at the meeting hall of the Mokin Association shouting, “We will write the history of the great cause together.” Jeong Yoo-ha looked nervous when Shin Won-ho (played by Nae-sang Ahn) answered the question, “What are you going to do if you find the real Lee Seol?” and answered, “Two suns can’t be under the same sky, right?” In an anxious mood, Kang San's sword flew at Jeong Yu-ha, who was wearing a mask, and took off his mask. Kang San, who checked his face, sharply asked, "Jeong Yu-ha. Was it you who falsely called Lee Seol? You are the head of the Mokin Association. Are you Lee Gyeom?" asked.
