Plan step 2

Concubine Kim was screaming and physician was quickly called. King Lee So Jun was also there, he looked at the kneeling Lee Jong Hyun, since the incidence he had been kneeling in front of the king " I am sorry, it all happened because there was mistake in me taking care of the guest. Please forgive me uncle. I am extremely sorry to concubine Kim and you as well. I am willing to receive any punishment that you wish to give me".

Lee So Jun was very angry at that moment but more than his concubine he was angry that the maid did not fulfill the plan he had for Lee Jong Hyun. With fake wide smile he forgave Lee Jong Hyun and he soon left in the pretense of being alone on the terrace.

His guard Jong Joon looked at Lee Jong Hyun's back, he quietly whispered " it will be quiet risky my lord. Are you sure you could do that". Jong Hyun smiled " to make us invisible in his eyes it is necessary Joon, have you prepared what I asked for. Jong Joon nodded.

With strong resolve Jong Hyun went to the terrace. He made sure Dong Mu who was standing outside saw him going upstairs alone. As Dong Mu planned to follow him too, son of concubine Park came along too. He was Park Ok-gi and he looked at Dong Mu and whispered " my mother is coming here, we just now received the message and I am sure you believe that we would not do any harm to concubine Kim".

Dong Mu nodded, he never cared for concubine Kim anyway and whoever got blamed, one of his mother's enemy will get out of their way. Suddenly their was a bang and Dong Mu who was nearest to the door, ran outside. Their he found Lee Jong Hyun unconscious on the floor, with blood seeping from his head.

Soon as Jong Hyun was carried inside, King Lee So Jun also followed the physician, all guards were called inside " how did this happen, who was guarding outside. Did anyone see anything".

Jong Joon who was standing by the door went on his knees " your majesty all the guards were sent to investigate the matter of concubine Kim around the black palace. So, not a single one was inside to see what happened to young prince Lee Jong Hyun, we are ready for capital punishment your majesty".

Lee So Jun ignored him, he looked at the physician who was called to investigate concubine Kim " what is the verdict, Physician Park"

Physician looked at the king " your majesty, young Prince lost his movement in lower body and their is a chance he may never recover".

Lee So Jun showed shocked angry expression but on the inside he was laughing, what he was planning for young prince happened without him doing anything and still here his nephew all crippled and their was a rule that no cripple can rule the kingdom. His problem solved on his own.

Lee So Ru was weeping by the bedside of Lee Jong Hyun and concubine Park who arrived just a while back was consoling her. Lee So Ru looked at the King " I want to inform my son about this on my own your majesty. Please allow us some peace".

Nodding everyone left the chamber, it took nearly six days before Lee Jong Hyun woke up with a groan he said "what is happening, it hurts so much". Lee So Ru caressed his hand" it's alright son, your mother is with you".

The physician that the King sent stood at the back, his eyes vigilant looking at the every movement that Jong Hyun made. He was ordered because king believed everything went too smoothly, how can something happen to Jong Hyun when just he was planning to make him fall from the roof.

While this was happening, Concubine Kim was cursing at Concubine Park because she believed that whatever was happening to her and the burn injury she suffered was all because of her.

Her maid Hi-ra who was helping her clean her wound slowly looked at Concubine " your Highness, you asked me to look around the young prince Hyun. I have someone who could help us".

Concubine Kim became interested, living in the palace she knew that gaining information against your enemy is first step to success and So, the young man that was the gardner that worked there for many year was called, looking at Concubine Kim he said " your highness young prince woke up since yesterday but he is so angry he keep throwing things around, he refused medicine and I heard he even tried suicide by biting his tongue and his majesty visited him twice a day. There was news that everyone was curious whether young prince was truly injured and king himself brought many physicians to perform the test"..
