The Peasants Prince [discontinued]

22.Plan.

"Ha Young were you listening?" Hyung sik said, wearing an annoyed expression

"W-What?" Ha Young said "Oh, um I'm sorry father, what is it you were saying?"

Hyung sik frowned even deeper (if that was even possible), and sent a piercing glare towards his daughter.

"On the night of your wedding you will put this in his drink," He said holding out a vial, "It will make him terribly ill. The same poison was used on his mother."

"Queen Chun Hei has been an amazing ruler," Hayou said, "What will stop Gunhak from being a great ruler too?"

"We put in a significantly larger amount in the vial, and even if he does just get sick he is young and does not know how to rule a kingdom." Hyung sik said, annoyed "And even though she managed to live longer than anyone expected, I've managed to get her to go through with the majority of plans I have offered to her."

"Sorry for asking Father I was just curious." Ha young bowed her head.

"You are dismissed," Hyung sik said.

Ha Young Stood up and bowed with her hands placed in front of her. As she walked out of the door one of the servants handed her a vial.

"Did he tell you what you had to do?" Dongju asked her. Ha Young was walking fast. Her feet pounded on the floor of the palace corridors. She huffed as wind flipped hair into her face. 

"Why do I have to be the one who does everything Xion?" Ha Young blurted, coming to an abrupt stop in front of her door. 

"Because the universe is a cruel thing," Dongju said, "And she always finds ways to make peoples lives miserable." 

"Well i wish the universe would mind it's own business!" Ha Young kicked her door open.

Dongju stared wide eyed at the mess of a girl standing in the door way. Her shoulders move up and down, as she took in deep shaky breaths.

"Ha Young..." 

"Dongju." Ha Young said, staying in place, "I don't want to kill him. But I have no choice. So please."

She turned her head, and Dongju froze at the sight of a broken girl, staring off into nothing.

"Get one of the maids to bring me some Makgeolli, and don't come in my room."

"A-As you say Ha Young." Dongju said.

The door slammed shut with a solid thud. Dongju blinked, fased, confused at the scene that had just played out before him.

His damaged heart cracked some more. 

"I'm sorry." He whispered.

So ya.

Boom

I've written another chapter. Not long to go till i get this story finished. 

I went to the beach today and got sunburned a bit.

I am currently writing this a 1:20 am. I just needed to get this finished because my evening was filled with crying and rethinking my life choices, while listening to Heathers The Musical songs. (Seventeen really slaps)

I love Ice Cream and bread.

Also Jesus said backwards sounds like sausage.

I miss my old schoolmates.

*sigh*

I love you all my lion pride.
