PARK MANOR
"Master? Why did you dispose all the servants and your concubines?" Madam Park didn't know their plans so she is wondering what is going on.
Earlier that morning, Left Prime Minister Park sent all the women and young children out of the Capital and now he will be sending Madam Park and Lady Park Molan to the suburbs making her curious.
Seeing that her father didn't plan to answer her mother, Lady Park Molan stepped in, "Let's do whatever Father told us to do, mother, come let's pack our belongings." she said as she pulled her mother to her own courtyard.
"Molan, tell mother the truth, this chaos in the Capital, does your father involve himself in the mess?" Madam Park's voice quivered, going against the ruler of the empire is treason. And the punishment is death.
Park Molan was stunned for a bit but she recovered her composure, "Mother is just over thinking. Let make this quick."
After making sure that his spouse and daughter was sent away, Left Prime Minister Park along with Empress Park, who recovered from her previous lowly and poor appearance.
Now she looked like her regal self, all confident.
The Imperial Palace has been surrounded by their people and the Capital gates are all sealed.
They hurriedly walked inside the Heavenly Hall where the throne was and the regular morning court meeting regularly happens but they stop on their track when they heard Empress Regent Han.
"Second Prince is really shameless"
That familiar voice made Empress Park livid. The sudden surge of loathing flowed on her veins.
Kana look around the people on the Heavenly Hall, no doubt, Second Prince Haii's faction is quite powerful consists of low and high ranking officers, ministers and merchants.
Kana scoffed loudly, "Xiao Sheen, make sure to ask the Imperial Seamstress to make a new throne cover as soon as possible, someone filthy and unworthy sat on it in his sorry, pathetic and petty ass."
"Yes!" Sheen replied but didn't move.
Eight of them, Special Female Force stood on Kana's back in a straight rod posture.
Prince Haii who has been smiling since he get in this palace and sat on the throne immediately his smile, froze.
"What did you say?!" he roared fiercely.
Kana didn't even flinch on seeing his angry face. There's a glint of danger in his eyes as he spat the words,
"I won't repeat this again, get off your sorry, pathetic and petty ass on the throne or no one will get out of this place, alive."
Empress Park who got pissed of hiding, went out and revealed herself.
"It is not surprising that Han Kana is still as Fierce as ever."
Kana wasn't surprised either, a subordinate already informed her that Empress Park runaway so seeing her now just felt like a stroll on the gardens.
Kana didn't even throw her a glance.
"Oh, good that you're here! His Highness the Second Prince might not know that the child you carried was his!" Kana laugh mockingly making Empress Park wants to kill her on her bare hands.
"What nonsense are you talking about?! This is His Majesty's child." Empress Park gritted her teeth.
"News flash darling, that night, it was the second prince who play with you in the Imperial Chamber. And look, that child in your belly is a perfect example... What will happen if this news will come out? His Majesty has worn a green hat. But what do this Empress Regent thought, like father like son, right Minister Park?" Kana snorted as he walk forward to the throne, leaving the fuming mad Empress Park and her father.
"Second Prince, you really are ambitious. You failed to kill me so you are making things difficult for me. Let's just kill each other then!" Kana pulled out his sword that has been carried, hiding in his long Phoenix robe.
Gladly the first critical three months of his pregnancy has passed, Kana can move now but with caution.
Drawing his sword, Kana step forward and attack first.
Prince Haii was taken a back and did not manage to dodge, he felt a searing pain in his left arm.
Kana really wanted him to die!
"Your memories is back?" His eyes widened.
"You're not happy about it? The fact that we loved each other back then but you chose to kill me by pushing me from the roof, what if I did died by that? I didn't even have the chance to gain my dignity even in death. You scum!" Kana attacked again, his moves is fast and accurate, his sword skills are amazing featured with strange fighting skills that is new to the eyes of the observers.
Second Prince was wounded on his arm and blood drips on it, all he did is dodge on each attack given by Kana.
He tried to change tactic to lure Kana again, "Didn't we love each other? Can you give me one more chance? I will make you my Empress since the Emperor is already dead."
"Who do you think you are to inherit the throne? You are not a real Jong. You are just a product of someone's dirty tactics to satisfy their needs of power." Kana scoffed.
"Then don't blame me for not showing mercy." Prince Haii draw his sword, slashing to Kana who expertly step back and dodge.
"You really had the guts."
Everyone stopped on their track when they heard the voice, they stopped their attacks and looked at the higher platform dumbfounded.
Emperor Jong Sunwoo was now sitting on the throne, his black robe cascades on the side, the Jade crown sparkles on upon the light. He has a mocking smile on his face.
He look at Kana with eyes full of admiration." My Empress, you worked hard, you should not tire herself, don't waste your energy on fighting with scums."
He then stood up, "This Emperor was gone for just a couple of days and yet you brought clamor to the Palace, All of the involved in this coup will be subjected to treason! Left Prime Minister and his companions helped Second Prince Haii to fight on usurping the throne, they assigned Assassin to kill This Emperor, the Entire Park Family will be erase from the history of Jong Empire, Extermination up to 9 generations of their clan, Left Prime Minister will be beheaded in the Capital City 3 days from now. Empress Park commits adultery, she will be drown to death and Second Prince Haii will die through thousands of cuts. Guards! Arrest them!"
Just like that, a spoken Imperial edict landed, and dark clothed figures jump in and arrested everyone involved.
The whole capital is in great chaos, and that night the Park Manor was set on fire.
Kana heave a sigh of relief, one prince gone down, there's one more to go.
