~ A few days later ~
Prince Chin mae's POV.

"General i have been looking all over for you"
He wasn't wearing his armor today but his royal robe.

"Your highness" he bowed.
"I apologize, i was with Queen mother"

"It is urgent, i heard the Queen left the palace, does his Majesty know of it? Where did she say she was going?"

"She said she was going for a tour around the nation, she has some small issues to address"

"Did she go in disguise?"

"No, she even left with Doha"

"I don't feel good about this"

"Is her Majesty up to something?"

"Yesterday, i reported to her about the pact we have been searching for, we think he is taking it out of Goguryeo through khitan, what if her Majesty intends to intercept it herself?"

"Something she is most likely to do" he concluded.

"And it is something he will put his life on the line to protect"
"I will go to her, let's not let his Majesty find out for now"

"Do you know where she could be?"
From the look on his face it couldn't be he intends to go when his wedding is in a few days.

"General, you know you need to be here, isn't lady Yu na already in the palace? It isn't anything big i will just convince her to return"

"Your highness, do you know so little of her Majesty?"he asked.

"I know, no one can convince her with words but if i must i will threaten to let his Majesty know, you know that will work"
His eyes shifted to the side in thought.

"Your highness i am not suppose to put both of you in danger, i will take some men and return before the wedding"
I don't think i can convince him other wise too.

"Alright but make sure to report to me if anything goes wrong"

Doha's POV.
I checked the room her Majesty was staying at the inn but it was empty so i went to the kitchen to look for Ga yoon.
She was keeping an eye on her Majesty's meal.

"Ga yoon, Ga yoon" I waved for her to step out.

"Yes lady Doha" she hurried.
She really looks different in this plain brown and yellow, with her hair down too.

"Where is her Majesty?"

"Her Majesty is resting in her room, she asked not to be disturbed"
My guess was right, i knew she was up to something, that is why the guards are away.

"I understand, continue with your work"
I went to ask the inn keeper if she has seen any strange men lurking around, when i couldn't find anything useful i made my way out of the residence but before i could reach the exit i found her and In su talking in hurried tones from a distance so i hid behind a close pillar to eavesdrop.
She lifted her head up revealing the face under the hat and said..
"Since it is not with him he could have sent it with another group"

"Yes, i should leave, they are likely to pass through the.."

"I should go with you"

"It is a rough path and it is dark..you can't..."
"And your Majesty said you will leave everything to me"

"Most of the men are not with you, it will be a failed mission if you go with a few..and we don't know what we are up against"
'What is she thinking?'

"Your Majesty i have already sworn to lay down my life for you and even if we were to fail there would be another chance"
"I can't imagine putting you and the Crown Prince in...."

"In su lead the way"
I should stop her.

"Your Majesty"

"It is an order, lead the way"
I don't think talking to her will solve anything, i should hurry and send a letter to the palace first.
