Chapter 3
"Come follow me! Because we have to greet him before the wedding starts!". Said the queen while holding Anna's hand.
"Wait mom". Anna said, feeling that she had to do something before she met him.
"What is wrong?". Asked the queen, confused.
"I'm going back to my room for a bit because I forgot my flowers. Besides, I want to pee". Anna replied with a frown.
The queen took a deep breath, she could not possibly hold back Princess Anna who wanted to pee.
"Okay, but you have to come back soon!".
"Yes mom". After that, Princess Anna immediately went with Eun to her room. For a moment she was relieved that she wasn't ready to meet Prince Gojong.
A few minutes later.
Eun and Princess Anna were startled by the loud sound of someone knocking on the door of Anna's room.
"Who is it? Why did he knock on the door so loud?". AskedPrincess Anna who was still sitting in front of the mirror after she finished from the bathroom.
Her heavy dress was already on, it was only her makeup that had to be fixed a little so that she was in front of the mirror for a long time.
"I'll open it". Eun said.
After the door opened, he ran to Princess Anna.
"What's the matter? Why are you covered in blood like this?". Princess Anna asked in panic when she saw the injured face of her bodyguard.
Of course Anna wondered why he was like that, because she knew that he was a very good bodyguard in fighting or playing with the sword.
"Right now, Princess and Eun must leave this palace. Because in this palace there is treason". The bodyguard replied after catching his breath.
Anna was more and more confused, she had just left the main hall of the palace, but now there was betrayal?
"How can there be a betrayal?". Asked Anna who couldn't leave before getting further explanation.
The guard is getting impatient. "Princess, please don't ask many questions, we don't have time, apart from the betrayal that comes from within the palace, there is also news that the first prince of the Gyongje kingdom will kidnap you because he doesn't want his younger sibling to marry first, therefore you must go immediately".
"Princess, let's go! Because the first prince was indeed a devil". Eun said as she helped Princess Anna take off her heavy dress so she could run.
Meanwhile, the bodyguards were waiting at the door to make sure that the traitorous soldier had not yet reached Princess Anna's room.
A moment later.
Princess Anna had finished changing her dress, after which she immediately followed her bodyguard while sneaking around with Eun.
Just then, Princess Anna heard the sound of people fighting.
"Wait, what about my parents?". Asked Princess Anna's worriedly.
"The royal army can no longer survive. Therefore, Your Majesty asked me to save you first. After that, I will return to save your parents". Answer the bodyguard.
"I can't go, because I have to see my parents are fine". After saying that, Princess Anna ran towards the hall.
"Princess, wait!". The bodyguard tried to stop Princess Anna.
However, Princess Anna kept running so her bodyguards and Eun quickly caught up with her.
Princess Anna, who was still seventeen years old, could not control her emotions.
Royal hall.
Not long after, Princess Anna arrived at the Hall. Instantly, she witnessed a fierce battle, the sound of swords clashing and the warriors protecting the king and queen began to fall one by one.
"Hahahaha ... Kill them!". Shouted Prince Sunjong, accompanied by loud laughter.
"You are indeed a devil, Sunjong. You committed treason against your own brother. Damn you". King Sujin's voice echoed throughout the Hall while pointing at prince Sunjong with his sword.
"Shut up, you foolish king, accept your death with your beloved wife so that I can occupy your throne". After saying that, Prince Sunjong ran with his sword towards the place where the king and queen stood.
"Not...!". Princess Anna's scream made prince Sunjong stop in the middle and turned to look at the source of the sound with a savage gaze.
"Princess Anna, get out of here". Shouted King Sujin when he saw that his only child was standing in front of danger.
