” To be a good antagonist you have to be smart and always have a plan B “she said and sat on his thigh ,she wrap her left hand around his neck .
” But how ” he ask and she smirk and kiss his lips
“After paying the idiot I also paid a maid to poison his breakfast and tadah we got him down before he could expose us ” she said and he nodded
” Wow that was smart but how did yeon know the gardener had a hand in this ” Duri said but she shrug and rolled her eyes

” Am not weak hwan am just being careful ” Duri said and she let out a dry laughter while massaging her forehead.
“Like seriously being careful , Duri you’re different from how I had pictured you . I thought you were strong ,smart and fearless , am so disappointed to see this version of you Duri . Is this how you intend to get back the throne ” she ask duri who slowly rose up and chuckle cunningly ,he walked close towards the family portrait of him , yeon ,the dowager and their late father . Hwan gaze followed him until he finally stop in front of the portrait and shove his hand into his pocket and smile .
” My mother is cunning and she sting hard like a scorpion “he said and turn to her with a smile and slowly approach her , he held her shoulders.

“And you f-__-king said nothing about this ” yeon thundered after Lee told him of the car wrack last night , yeon search his wardrobe for something to wear and finally he took out a white tracksuit and wore it along with a white Nike sneakers .
“Highness you have to calm down and let’s think this through , think about what happened to day ” Lee tried to stop yeon who made his way towards the exit door
” Su-Bin is more important so c’mon let’s go ” yeon and open the door only to find 5 guards standing outside, he frown deeply as soon as he saw them.
“What’s going on here ” Lee ask and the guards bow their heads .
“Your highness the queen said you shouldn’t leave your room ” one of the guard said and yeon clinch his fist
” What $h|t are you guys saying ” yeon grit his teeth
” Highness please go back inside you can’t leave your room ,this is for your own safety “Mun said coming towards then with an unreadable expression , Lee rolled his eyes as soon as he saw mun.
” What nonsense Is this ” yeon holler , Mun exhaled and signaled the guards to move aside .
“Am sorry my prince but this command is from the queen herself, please go back inside “Mun said calmly and yeon click his tongue and turn to Lee who said nothing , Mun exhaled and pull up his shirt and took a glance at his wrist watch . Yeon noticed a flame gold egg on his wrist and instantly he remembered what Mr Wang said to him.
“The leader of the assassin has a lotus tattoo beside his neck and flame egg tattoo on his wrist ” Mr Wang voice rang in his head and yeon quickly look up at Mun neck and he saw a faint looking blue lotus tattoo but half of it was buried in by his collar .
“Nice tattoo ” yeon said and mun arched his brows and pull down his shirt to cover the tattoo
“Thank you ,so please go in and rest my prince ” mun said and yeon nodded and he and Lee went back into the room and the door was short.
“Keep an eye on the prince ” Mun said to the guards before walking away.
Meanwhile Lee noticed how awkwardly quiet yeon was and he couldn’t help but worry
“Highness are you alright ” Lee ask to yeon who is leaning on the wall with his arms folded.
“You said mun was part of the men in the truck and it seems they wanted you guys dead ” yeon ask and Lee frown and nodded
” Mun headed the assassination of the Nams and now he is after su-bin, he most be working under someone . I need to know if there’s any connection between Mun and the Nam household” yeon thought ..
” Lee I need to get outta here but I need your help ” yeon said
” And how am I gonna help you “Lee ask clearly he doesn’t see any possibility of them leaving this room .
“You can’t leave this room your highness ” Lee said and yeon smirk and took of his mask
“But you can ” yeon said with a cunning smile .
**2 minutes later
The door to prince yeon room open and yeon walk out dressed in Lee tuxedo and his hair was also styled just like that of Lee , he wore a dark shade to cover his gold Iris . The guards didn’t recognize him as the prince .
“He prince is sleeping no one should disturb him ,is that clear “yeon said mimicking Lee voice .
” Yes sir ” they all responded in unison and yeon nodded with a smile before leaving the there .
” I hope you enjoy being me Lee ” yeon said with a chuckle as he walk majestically through the silent long hall way . Meanwhile inside yeon room Lee sat in front of yeon full length mirror staring at his reflection, he is dressed in one of yeon expensive robe and he is also putting in yeon face mask . No one will notice the difference between them after all no one had ever seen yeon face side for his mother .
“Gush please help me not to get in trouble with his crazy idea “Lee prayed …
