In the meantime, Deputy Magistrate Han Kyu Ho and government official Park Moo Ha begin an investigation against the Pyunsoo Hwe group. But things took a turn for the worst after a loyal servant of Dae Mok came to know about it.
The male antagonist in Ruler: Master Of The Mask begins his investigation about the Crown Prince and gets to know that he is a very weak person. So, the leader of Pyunsoo Hwe comes to a conclusion that killing the loyal servants of Yoo Seung Ho's character could make him weaker.
After poisoning the Crown Prince's childhood friend Chun Soo, Dae Mok forced the King to imprison Deputy Magistrate Han Kyu Ho and government official Park Moo Ha. Both of them were punished for spreading rumours about the Crown Prince.
When the male protagonist came to know, he requested his father to release the government officials. But the King did not just refuse to do so but also urged his son to behead the deputy magistrate in front of the public.
