The Virgin Outcast Who Stole the Emperor's Heart

Chapter 38

Chapter 38 - The Real Traitors

"Lady Nana, of course you know Kyung-sook isn't the Emperor's biological mother." Jandi said which made me shake my head repeatedly no that I didn't know then I found myself sitting down dumbly and at the same time I pull my brother to sit beside me, as I hit myself with my left hand on the head while I call myself sluggish.

"The late Empress died just after thirty minutes of birthing the Emperor. On her dying bed she made Kyung-sook the Emperor's god mother due to their closeness but this shouldn't change how you behave around Kyung-sook and don't go telling Kyung-sook that you know that she's not the Emperor's biological mother so that makes her a common person because even though she's not from royalty, she can still eat you, swallow you or vomit you Nana. I'm saying this to scare you because I don't want you fighting her Nana. I don't want her coming after you." Min-jun said while holding my hands and looking me in the eyes worriedly. He doesn't want me getting hurt but although I haven't started fighting Kyung-sook, I know we're already at war. She doesn't like me, she had hated me since the very first day she brought me inside the palace and had told me to be telling her everything the Emperor do, who he meets with and even what he says, I had agreed then because she agreed to let me go see my brother but when I realized how evil she's i stopped doing it. I'm not going to tell my brother all this though because it will make him more worried than he already is.

"How do you know all this? I ask my brother in confusion. He looked at me then Jandi ..asking me with his eyes if it's safe to have a secret conversion in front of Jandi and I replied him by nodding my head yes.

"She's the traitor Nana." My brother said and for some reason this new information didn't surprise me at all. No wonder she wants my brother dead but some things i heard that happened that day still confuses me so I asked my brother

"But Min-jun if Kyung-sook is the traitor then how come the late Emperor's men caught Father with his troop inside the building the late Emperor's built for his wife and the late Emperor was spending the night there that day like he always does whenever it his wife's death anniversary." I asked trying to think of a way someone would have set my father up but still find non ..I guess the people that set him up are so smart and conning.

"Because dad is also a traitor too Nana; my brother said making me look up at him to know if he has lost his mind but he isn't even laughing like a crazy person or laughing like he's joking beside why will he laugh or joke with something that's so serious ..wait, he's serious but.. But why.. why will father want to kill the late Emperor? Why will he work with Kyung-sook?" I mutter in my mind so confused but it seems like my brother can read my mind as he begins to explain but the more he explains the more I become more confuse.

"Kyung-sook and Father where lovers ..no one else knows about this Nana ..not even mother and please don't go fighting Kyung-sook, she's a very conning woman and I think she's the one who set our village on fire just so no one will try to investigate the issue and have her name included in the traitors list." My brother said then begin hugging me when he notice that I'm now crying. "Don't cry Nana ..things just happens, look at me ..I too thought Father was innocent _I thought someone framed him and I sneaked into the palace to rescue him just to find out that he's willing to die for their mission.

They're planning something Nana, they're planning something big and Kyung-sook is not alone."
