Bogsu prepared to send Song Minhyun a kick when all of a sudden Song Minhyun hugged her happily.
Wait a minute, what Is wrong with her, wasn't she person who called her a commoner previously or is this some kind of scheme Bogsu thought awkwardly standing as Song Minhyun hugged her before finally pushing Song Minhyun away.
"What trick are you trying to pull of now?" Bogsu asked sneering disgusted by Song Minhyun appearance.
"Bogsu, don't you remember me I came to apologize about what happened yesterday and you forgave me, we drank tea together." Song Minhyun said like she has seen a friend she has lost for years.
Hearing Song Minhyun words Bogsu immediately understood what was going on, the thing was trying to look good in front of the Emperor, maybe after he found out that she came to apologize to her.
Bogsu smirked at the thought, Han Jiwoo was lost in a daze seeing the girl's red lips curl up, he had to admit this girl was one of a kind with her beauty and all. He wondered why she only wears red though.
"But from what I remember you and Eunuch Chen called me a witch before running off into the forest frantically, I really don't think you apologized at it was the insult that became more instead." Bogsu tilted her head innocently blinking her eyes acting like she was trying to remind Song Minhyun what really happened.
Han Jisung heard what Bogsu said and frowned heavily, glaring at Song Minhyun but remembering they were outside he kept himself in check.
Song Minhyun felt like strangling Bogsu there and then, "of course we would do that, you are the lady in red remember, there are rumors surrounding you that we can't help but feel scared." Song Minhyun timidly said pretending to be bullied causing Bogsu to roll her eyes at her act.
Everyone at the entrance immediately looked up in fear, after hearing Song Minhyun, they couldn't believe it such a frail looking woman was the lady in red.
They had expected a woman that was huge and had visible muscles and scars.
A woman that was very old in appearance and still had the agility but what they got is a woman that looks like a seductress, who always held her wine bottle no matter where she went, there wasn't even a space for a sword on her garment, how do she protect her self.
They have heard tales of how the lady in red killed a group of machineries who abducted a little girl from her village, planning to sell to be a sex slave.
It was said that there was no sword wound but all of them were found dead. They had all thought it was a myth because how was a lady suppose to take on ten heavily harmed men alone with out a weapon but seeing Bogsu behaviour she seems capable, she could probably annoy the victim to death.
"Seems Eunuch Chen has become so powerful that he can't keep a court secret anymore." Han Jisung stated sarcastically, he had originally wanted Bogsu identity to stay within the court now the whole palace knew about it thanks to one person.
"Bogsu, this is the palace not a bar of some kind so I don't want to see you drink any wine her again and about your pet Alice do something about her." Han Jisung said angrily feeling the power of his state is slowly slipping away from him.
"Summon all court officials for a meeting now." Han Jisung told his steward, it's time to tie loose ends in his kingdom he can't stand by and watch everything slip away.
With that he turned away from them and headed to his chambers to get changed.
Bogsu eyes went cold hearing she couldn't drink any more wine.
"It's all your fault you white lotus!!" Bogsu yelled angrily at Song Minhyun.
"Don't talk to my mother like that you low life." Han Jiwoo intervened although he too was slightly scared after hearing she was the lady in red.
"If you dare put your mouth into matters that doesn't concern you, I swear, I don't mind sending you 6 feet under the ground early, idiot." Bogsu told Han Jiwoo angrily.
"And as for you, I just planned to look at you as a dog that don't know it's place but now I'm going to follow you through, it's better to watch your movements now and be careful not to provoke me anymore." Bogsu threatened mounting Alice ordering her to go out of the palace , Song Minhyun stood fixed to the ground confused at what just happened, it was only wine why the sudden outburst.
Bogsu huffed and puffed angrily as Alice went the path that led to the village, wine was the only way she could feel close to her mother as she had seen her mother drinking wine in her last moments.
Drinking wine was like a reminder of her cause, and she would fulfill it to the end.
Even though Bogsu did not remember the face of the woman who stabbed her mother, it was a woman and she was dressed in expensive clothes and also wore a jade bracelet that stuck in her memory the most.
Bogsu at first of course suspecting Song Minhyun but thought she was too dumb to command the army to kill their own Empress.
Bogsu thought of where to start because the only thing that stuck to her mind was the jade bracelet and she wasn't sure whether her mother had enemies or not.
But it could be possible that the army where a set of machineries too.
Bogsu thought about it and finally decided to use her underground connection to ask if their was any machinery that existed 20 years ago and accepted a big offer that caused them to move out of the Chi nation, because after criminals commit a crime they tend to move from their place of crime, so she would begin her search from their.
