Season 6 plot: In Mount Geumkang, Master Yujeom has a daughter (Lady Park) whose face is so hideous that she has to wear a black veil all the time. Sometime later, she gets married to Lee Deuk Chun's son Lee Shi Baek. After marrying, she lives at the Chwihee Hall, and her new in-laws are frightened by how ugly she is, so they avoid her. Lee Shi Baek distances himself from his wife and stays with a courtesan named Sanwol, whom he loved since before getting married. His mother Lady Kang and his aunt pressure Lady Park to get divorced and go back to her family. Only Lee Shi Hwa, Shi Baek's sister, befriends Lady Park and frequents Chwihee Hall.
As time goes along, Shi Baek treats Lady Park even more coldly, while the other in-laws scorn and bully her even more, to the point that she begs them to build a side chamber where nobody can see her. They name it the Pihwa Pavilion, a really insulting name as it means "avoiding disaster". Lee Shi Hwa suggests wearing a white veil instead of a black one, and Lady Park agrees. Lady Kang, Sanwol and Sanwol's mother Kang Shim are eager to chase her out, and scheme to get Sanwol into Chwihee Hall as a concubine. Kang Shim finds an extraordinary fortuneteller and curses Lady Park, but Lady Park uses her powers of endurance to overcome it.
One day, Lady Park thinks of a way to make money for her father-in-law and buys him a sick horse in the marketplace that's worth $7, for $300. (let's pretend Joseon uses $ for nyang asdfg) She asks that he feed it everyday with sesame seed rice porridge. Aware of her abilities, Lee Deuk Chun does as she asks, and after three years, it becomes an excellent horse with supple skin and sheeny hair. She sells the horse to a Ming emissary for $38,000. As Lady Park expected, the money from the horse startles the Lee family.
Lee Shi Baek's civil examination approaches and Lady Park has an unusual dream, in which her husband gets first place after touching a special set of brushes, paper and inkstone that she sent him. The theme of the civil exam was denoted in the shadow of the inkstone. Lee Shi Baek is inspired and regrets his actions towards her. Three years into their marriage, Lady Park's father Master Yujeom visits and uses magic to fix her face, which is now as beautiful as a fairy's. Lady Park's marital chemistry with Lee Shi Baek has improved, but Lady Kang's fear changes to jealousy, and continues to find fault with her. Even so, Lady Park treats Lady Kang with sincerity. When she gets pregnant, Lady Kang is moved and begins to treat Lady Park with love. From then on, the family begins to get along. Lady Park gives birth to twins, now served by Gyehwa and Gil Bo. Lee Shi Hwa also marries her fiance Ju Il, to the joy of the entire family.

Continued: Meanwhile, the barbarian Northern nation of Later Jin is growing more powerful, and the clouds of war begin to hang. Lee Shi Baek, who's just come back from Later Jin as an emissary, prepares for an attack and petitions to reinforce national defense, but the Court officials oppose and Injo doesn't believe that Later Jin will attack. Lady Park is frustrated and uses her supernatural powers to appear in the King's dreams. She speaks to him of the situation and lets him know that Later Jin will change their name to Qing and attack. She suggests that he think of a countermeasure. Soon after Injo awakens he summons the Court officials and asks Lee Shi Baek in detail about what he saw in Later Jin, but the Court officials still oppose.
Some time later, a beautiful courtesan named Seoljungmae appears at Kang Shim's winehouse and entrances Lee Shi Baek. Lady Park is anxious over these news and invites Seoljungmae to meet her herself. She finds out that Seoljungmae is secretly a Qing Princess here to assassinate Lee Shi Baek, and then scolds Seoljungmae before sending her back. At the same time, she tells Injo that the Qing troops will be here soon, so he should urgently avoid disaster. The King sentences her to capital punishment, and the Court requests in unison to kill both her and Lee Shi Baek.
Over in Qing, Hong Taiji leads Tatara Inguldai (Long Gu Da/Yong Gol Dae) and his brother Long Hu Da/Yong Hol Dae to begin their attack on Joseon. As the Qing army of 100,000 approaches, Injo escapes to Namhan Mountain Fortress. Inguldai chases Injo to the fortress while Long Wu Da attacks and plunders the people. Long Hu Da's soldiers break into the side chamber but Lady Park slits their throats with her magic and locks the door.
Injo finds out that Namhan only has provisions for 50 days, and regrets not listening to Lee Shi Baek. A heated debate arises when he suggests a surrender, saying that Lady Park represents Heaven's will and that they must surrender to Hong Taiji. He writes a correspondance and takes the Crown Prince with him in common clothes to go kneel before Qing.
After the Manchu Invasions, Lee Deuk Chun becomes Chief State Councilor, Lee Shi Baek becomes the Crown Prince's mentor, and Lady Park becomes Lady Jeonggyeong (First Class Noblelady, highest rank a non-Royal woman can attain) for repelling Inguldai and Long Hu Da with her magic. The family gets a Gate of Loyalty and a Pavilion tiled with dancheong (Palace tiles).
Master Yujeom's dying day approaches and so he praises all of his daughter's achievements, visiting one more time to see her twins. Master Yujeom looks at their faces and predicts that they and their children will become State Councilors one day. Then, he chooses his day to die. Lady Park is extremely sad.
The King joyfully spends his time in the new Pavilion, calling Lady Park and Gyehwa to compliment them. 14 years later, Injo dies and Hyojong comes to the Throne. Lee Shi Baek is now Chief State Councilor, busy with State affairs. He and Lady Park have sown resentment in their hearts and are impatient to one day conquer the North, but both know that their time is coming soon. They both find a corner of their mansion and spend their last moments together, leaving behind two words as advice to the family: Loyalty and Filial Piety.

Extra plots from the drama I'm getting so far from the synopses: - Lee Shi Baek first fell in love with Lady Park when she saved his life in the mountains (before he saw her face).
- Lady Park wears a black veil at the beginning of the show, then changes to a white veil because everyone found the black veil scary
- Master Yujeom only made Lady Park pretty because Lady Kang apparently wanted her to kill herself if Lee Shi Baek passed the national exam??
