Every day, the Joseon Emperor always sneak out from his own palace and disguising himself as a normal local people in his own kingdom. Until he finds the love of his life.
I feel really tired and I don't want to get up at all, but I have to because I'm the emperor and I can't procrastinate and sleep all the time. I wish I want to be a rock in my next life. I slowly open my eyes to see a sleepy goddess in front of me. What are we doing earlier? 🤔............................................
..... Oh, we made love last night. Not gonna lie, last night was total heaven. Then, her eyes start slowly open and she smiles immediately at me. "Good morning, Satan."
"Good morning, goddess, and why you call me that?"
"Because you extremely hard and rough last night. I probably can't walk right now."
"Sorry, I'll go wear my pants and then carry you to our room." I get up from the bed and take my pants from yesterday. I put it on and when I was about to carry Y/n, but someone burst into this room. "Pyeha!!" Gladly Y/n's whole body was covered by the big soft blanket. I turn around to see Taehyung. "Pyeha, Park Hae Il (Bogum's father and Yoongi's parents' killer) is poisoned to death in his cell."
"What?! Who did this?!"
"I don't know, but I'm sure the maid that give him the food didn't put anything in the food."
"Why are you so sure?"
"Everyday, I'll always keep my eyes on the maid that have to send some food to Hae Il and all of them didn't put anything illegal in it. So, this is nothing to do to the maids." I feel very frustrated. Who did this?!
"Okay, Taehyung. Thanks for the information. Go secure the cell and I'll come to have a little investigation there."
"Yes, Pyeha." Taehyung head out and sigh. I didn't get a single answer from him yet. Who the fuck did this?! I turn around to Y/n to see her sat up while covering her chest with the blanket. Worry, that's what she hold on her face. She knew everything about me and my parents' death. I get closer again and wrapping her a little with the blanket and carry her to our room.
*Taehyung's POV
I'm at front of the cell, securing. Since Pyeha first met with Y/n, I can feel that we have a connection with each other. Not love, but bound between sibling. Sometimes, I noticed that Y/n are look familiar with my father's first love and she have a personality of my father, strong and sweet. Yoongi Hyung told me that he noticed that I look like a twin with Y/n. Well, my mom is his second love and how do I know? I sometimes sneak into father's office then I found a paint of her and I don't know what happen to her right now. Father never tell me. "Taehyung? Taehyung? Taehyung!!" I snap from my thoughts. I look up to see father. "What are you thinking?" Should I ask him about her? Maybe I should. "Father, is it true that I'm a first child of yours?"
"Taehyung, why you asking that?"
"Because the empress's personality look familiar with yours and Pyeha told me that I and Y/n look like a couple of twins. Don't you notice?"
"Actually Taehyung, I also noticed sometimes. I notice that she look like your stepmother and I do not know why it happened that night."
"What happened?"
"That night, after the war, I went to our room immediately to shower her with my love, but instead, I found a blood room. The furniture was all damaged, the paper was torn all over the place. What's worse, her body was lying on the floor, lifelessly, on a pool of blood. She's pregnant at that time and her stomach cut open. I don't know if your other sibling still alive or not."
"Father, does it make sense that Y/n, is my sister? Obviously, she have all features like stepmother, right?" My father thinks for a while.
"I don't know, Taehyung. Don't be so sure, or you'll get in big trouble with Pyeha." Then he walks away.
*Yoongi's POV
Don't they notice that I heard a whole conversation? After I hear loud footsteps fading away, I walk towards Taehyung. "Oh, Pyeha." He bows at me. I want to ask about the conversation earlier but I'm better not interfere with his family stuff. "Taehyung, open the cell." He opens the cell and I walk in. I walk towards the body. I examine the body. Yup, he definitely poisoned. Weird thing is, where's the guard that on duty to secure this cell? I think someone breaks into it. I look around the cell and saw something. I pick it up. It's a snuff bottle.

Each kingdom has its own type of design and I know how they look like. This bottle...I saw this kind of design in my life. I open the lid and it's empty. I sniffed the lid. White snakeroot. Only one place has this kind of poison. "Uhh, Pyeha?" I turn around to see Taehyung taking off Hae Il's shoe and a paper feels out. Taehyung pick it up and gave it to me. Before I look at it, I ask him how did he know that there a paper in Hae Il's shoe. "I saw the paper pop out a bit." He said. Then I read the paper.
"Hello Pyeha, I hope you happy that I finally finish your revenge for your parents. With that, I want a reward. The reward is to let go of that brat and marry me. If you didn't give me my reward, I will get it myself and destroy both of them. Love you Pyeha."
'Both of them'? What does she mean? Did she..... "Taehyung, get the strongest group of guards and all them to guarding for the empress's safety. Now!!!" Taehyung immediately runs out. This girl can't be serious. How did she know that we did it last night? Don't tell me. "Guards!!" One of the guards came. "Yes, Pyeha."
"I need few guards to go patrolling around this palace and every village nearby. If one of the group finds Princess Suran of Silla, arrest her immediately."
"Yes, Pyeha." He ran. I feel so frustrated right now. Y/n, what are you doing right now?
