The plan

*flash back*

before Haru followed the man from the palace, haru was with seff, before he went to the palace,

While they were walking down the street

" I think that man knows something, and I must find out, he must have showed those thieves a way to enter the palace " haru said to seff " wait,,, you said when you followed him, you lost trace of him, which means he knew he was being followed "

" he was wearing blue clothes, and the waist belt was red, and his boots seems to be expensive for just an ordinary man, but I'll continue checking, if I meet him I can recognize him" seff said to haru

__

" go away you disgraced woman, don't even try to steal like your husband did" a market man shouted to the woman, haru recognized the woman, he came to help her" ma'm are you alright,,,", they went to a nearby restaurant and bought her food

" I'm sorry am bothering you,,,," the woman said to them

" it's nothing, don't worry you are safe now, just eat" haru said to the woman, but instead the woman burst into tears

" I don't even know how to thank you,,, I didn't know my life would turn like this, but I swear my husband is innocent ", both haru and seff looked at her in pity,

" do you know anything about the robbery " seff asked the woman, and she was quite for a little bit,she looked afraid and started shaking , then haru noticed " do,, you,, know anything, u can tell us,,,, I can help your husband " the woman quickly grabbed haru's hands crying " I know you are a royal guard, but please save my husband, he didn't mean to do it, he only was helping our family, they forced him , he had no choice, please save him" , haru and seff was so shocked, after hearing all that, when he went to the palace, he suddenly went to the prison cell, and saw the culprit man, he was so tortured, he came closer, the man noticed him, and he asked how his family is, but haru was like" your family is fine,,,,for now" the man was so relieved and started crying blaming himself" it's all my fault " but haru asked him" who are they", the man looked shocked " if you don't want your family to die, then take responsibility" haru said, the man didn't have any choice,so he explained.

That night haru followed the palace man.

*at the palace*

*Prince Ahns chambers *

" your highness someone is here to see you" a maid said to prince Ahn

" what! the king finally recognized me" he said thinking the king sent someone for him, " let him in"

Haru entered Prince Ahn's room, Ahn was so shocked to see him " yaaah! Look at you filthy man who fights giants, what is it this time"

" I have to tell you something "

Prince Ahn smirked, when he looked at haru's face he was serious, so he sent the maids out to give them privacy " talk"

" I need your help " haru said in like a begging voice.

While coming out of the prince's chambers walking, he met her highness sala, he bowed for greetings, and sala passed him, and he continued his way.

"I've never seen him before " sala wondered while asking the maid

" he's one of the guards, the king granted him a wish", the maid said, but she didn't mind about it, so she continued her way.

* bureau office*

Haru entered his work place, officer scolded him for being late, but after that he went on to do his work, one guard who they work with (Kai) " where have been, you are never late, next time he will make you do the work alone ", haru sighed as he remembers what he talked with the prince

" save a filthy man?, are you out of it, and why would I do it, he committed a crime" prince said

" what if I have proof,,, I mean I found proof, but you are the only one who can help me" haru said

" haha! You are so brave, and what am I supposed to do and where do I benefit " prince said

Haru explained for him.

That afternoon

* the gambler place*

While the men were gambling, they suddenly got attacked and surrounded by guards, " who are you!!!", the owner of the shop asked, but they didn't listen to him, " search everything and no one must leave", they started searching them, others were fighting, others managed to escape, while they searched everywhere, there was a hidden store, they found a lot of luxury, food and medicine, the owner of the shop" what's going on,,, it's not true,,,, that's not true" they quickly took them.

While the king was in the conference room with the advisors,

" you majesty, he should be executed "

While they were deciding, and waiting for the king's final answer, the prince came.

When he entered the hall, everyone was murmuring, he immediately bowed to great the king " father you must release the innocent man" prince said, everyone was murmuring in shock, one man cleared his throat to talk " what are you talking about, he is a criminal "

Then king asked the prince" why should he be released "

The prince said" the other luxuries, and all robbed things which were missing I found them" he said even though he was shaking " these men are gamblers, they frame innocent families so that they can take the rest without being followed ,,,, please let the investigation go on and punish the wrong doers"

But the others seem not to agree,

" your majesty, we can't be sure about that,maybe it a trap and someone planned this" one man said

Then the king said" the investigation must go on,release that family, give them food and medicine "

Prince Ahn was so happy, while he was at his chambers " wah! That was so scary, am proud of myself "" father finally recognized me"

That night, the advisors of the king were having a gathering more like drinking together at sila's inn ( they were four men including sir mun)

" this wine tastes better than the palace,,," one man said while fantasizing the wine

" you are right hahaha,,,,," another man said,

While they were laughing, another man looked at sir mun " but how did prince Ahn find those gamblers, who would have thought he would enter the conference room like that"

Sir mun placed his wine glass on the table "maybe if you didn't think of such a stupid plan like that and still pretending " sir mun said to the man( sir sung, chief of health and wealth), in that moment the situation became serious

( sir sung and these three men, they've been working together as friends for a long time, and as time goes by, the more greedy they become, when prince Ahn brought the gamblers and found the store house where they keep things like bribes and peoples properties, they were shocked, but they still wanted to pretend because they thought no one would find them)

As they continued talking, they were in fear " please help us sir mun,,,,,, we can do anything but please the king shouldn't know" they were begging him to find a way to help them.

On the other side, haru at home discussing with seff and caas, and also celebrating their victory and how their plan went.

*flash back*

Haru, seff and caas had a plan, after finding out the truth, the innocent man told haru• I have been working for them, but when they started involving stealing from people and a lot of things and working with people overseas, I tried to stop,but because I knew their secret they were always on me trying to threaten and my family,when I refused that's when they framed me•, seff and caas, followed some of the gamblers, they found out where they hide the luxurious, gold,food and medicine, they also hired some men to help them take some of the things ,( they stole back), they went to put them at the gambler place as proof, so that if prince Ahn's guards come to search, they'll find the proof.

———-

The next day at the palace, the men were tortured hard and they were not talking when they were asked if there's was anybody behind the crime, because they thought they'd be saved at the end, but the king's advisors insisted on executing them, and they convinced the king, until the king gave orders of executing them.

(The other night sir mun and others planned to trick the gamblers not to say anything for they'd be saved, and convince the king to execute them)
