HIS QUEEN : the first royal consort .vk (ON HOLD)

CHAPTER. 21 : Coming closer to truth

After dealing with the attack they finally reached the capital.
They return safely but the only problem was how did the enemy came to know there location.
Jungkook immediately asked this question once he return to his study.
Before goining towards the direction of study he had already inform the eunuch to send Namjoon over there.

Soon Namjoon replied that they must have a spy mixed in there people .

Kung-soo furrowed his brows
" It's almost impossible for anyone to easily infiltrate in our people and all peopel present there were personaly choosen by Majesty. Chances of having mole is very slim.
Yes if we Leave them and think from another direction then the only other people that know about our departure is Consort Taehyung.
Not to forget those assasins martial art was also one-third similar to how Master jung teaches and only his students can truly master his special teachnique. Consert Taehyung and General Yoongi both are his students."

Lishning to his doubts Namjoon immediately denied it " How can you doubt Taehyung and why would he do something this immoral."
He was a bit agitated .

Suddenly a harsh sound landed in his ears.
"Namjoon it's Consert Taehyung, look at your Manners ! "

Aware of Jungkook's anger he quiten down.

"I apologise yours majesty. It's just.."

" Stop."

Before he can even continue Jungkook's intimading voice stopped him.

Despite the tence atmosphere Kyung-soo also retorded his intention unknown " No one can be trusted. And beside why wouldn't he not do that, if something happen at that situation then from various points he have Many advantages. For present beside Consort Taehyung Major General Yoongi is also suspicious. "

Namjoon finally sifted his eyes towards Kyung-soo he was a bit puzzled " Why is General Yoongi also involved ? What relation does he have in this matter. Moreover were is he currently i thought that he will return with his majesty. "

Kyung-soo wasn't interested but he still truthfully told everything to him in detail.

Namjoon was surprise but he quickly composed himself.

" Your Majesty this doesn't look simple. " Namjoon said handing few documents to Jungkook.

" Few days ago our people reported that Kang Qi's regent was not originally orphen but he was found nearly dead near Tarim river which flows between the borders of our Kingdom and Kang Qi. It was only after few months when he recovered before he left for Kang Qi's capital. Due to some coincidence his talent was discovered by there late Majesty when he was taking a stroll in capital with his gaurds. Deeply impressed by his strong insight and Knowledge there Enperor directly granded him an small official position in court. To quickly climb in position without the doubts of emperor he did something unexpected." Reaching this part Namjoon stopped his eyes heasitating.

Jungkook glanced at him, motioning to continue.

" To make his position more stable he volunteered to quite being minister and became a eunuch in palace."

"What "

Even Kyung-soo couldn't hide the surprise in his voice. You should Know even if a person doesn't want a child but he will never wish to remove his testicals to become a eunuch that also voluntarily. After all it was a matter of pride and as the saying goes 'A gentalman's hat can be fallen but not his pride.'

"After that the emperor no longer fear him of gaining to much power. As he was bond to be heirless as a eunuch and it also eliminate his chances of taking throne someday if he rebelled.
Seeing his sincerity the emperor made an expection for him and allow him to even participate in court affaires openly. He very quickly climb up in position and finally when there late Emperor died, the empress granded him position of regent to assist the young emperor under the pressure of court."
