I returned to minamto upon hearing the rumours of my father in town, Yukio was also my informant and spy.
I was so eager to know my father's whereabouts at any means and costs.
"Commander Sebastian has been Jailed". Yukio said.
"where, which town?" I asked yukio.
"Commander Sebastian is in the yamato dungeon serving punishment and being tortured". Yukio answered.
"Prince syhigeto as been impeached as the minamto king". Yukio said.
"It really hurts me many of my people are in the yamato palace for slavery and prostitution". I said.
"Prince shigeto is totally helpless There is nothing he can do about it". Yukio said.
"I am the only one left after I lost reina". I eyes became teary.
"Emperor Eiken is dead already, prince einosuke is the one ascending the throne. Some that can be easily controlled by Regent aoi".
"What about diasuke". I asked.
"Daisuke is the only one that has the charisma to deal with regent aoi and his son's.Neither can he read nor write". Yukio whispered.
"Governor eren is not capable of initiating anything once aoi concludes.Daisike has totally been uselessed with the aid of aoi and the dowager". I said.
"Please do anything to save your commander Sebastian from execution.he is our only hope in minamto". Yukio declared.
Regent aoi's evil plans went smoothly and today prince einosuke was getting crowned as the new emperor of Yamato, one the the emperor of the most powerful kingdom in Japan.
But prince daisuke wasn't happy, something seemed to be bothering him that he could not talk about.The enuchs and Court Ladies helped him get dressed in the emperor's chambers, looking attractive and charming with the golden hair pin and customs attached to his imperial gown.
He stood up from the stool he was sitting, moving closer to the mirror turning left and right admiring his reflection.
"Your majesty it's time for your coronation to begin". The Court lady bowed and said.
"The whole yamato would have gathered to crown me as their new emperor". Prince einosuke answered.
"Is something wrong?" enuch sawyer asked while the maids helped him get dressed for the ceremony.
Einosuke smiled."No, nothing is wrong".
Empress dowager approached the einosuke, she bowed looking at him with a smile.she took a step forward, placing her hand lightly on Einosuke's shoulders."You are going to be a good emperor to your people". Empress dowager assured him.
She grabbed Einosuke's face with Both and placed a kiss on his forehead."Only with you by my side." he smiled.
"I will always be by your side". I said adjusting his hair and then I took a step by to see if everything was in place."we are good to go".Einosuke entered the imperial hall walking with grace and confidence.Not many people were invited only the high rank generals, governors, regent aoi and some priest to bless the ceremony.
The priest of the aidoru god had already checked the horoscope match for throne, but regent aoi already threatened him to twist it and make it look like it was prince einosuke.
The priest wasn't that was supposed to crown prince einosuke as the new emperor was not looking very pleased, probably because of the lies he told to the people.
He knew quite well if he crowned the wrong person things might go wrong for the Yamato people, merely looking at regent aoi's eyes sent shivers down his spine.
Governor of the third rank Eren was weirdly looking at regent aoi, facially the people knew he wasn't in support of crowning prince einosuke as the new emperor. Empress dowager and regent aoi sitting together wink at each other with satisfaction.
Princess regent Sakura and governor Eren looking at each other in disappointed for the fact they could do nothing about the mess aoi has caused.
In the sight of the very important personnels in Yamato including princess consort hazel, the priest crowned prince einosuke as the emperor.Regent aoi and empress dowager made a great deal out of nothing.
Princess reina sitting next to general kenji whispered something in his ear, it caught everyone's attention thinking there is an important message they will grabb from eavesdropping their conversation.
"Brother Kenji, am I a Yamato or minamto born?" Reina asked.
"Shush Reina!" Kenji covered her mouth.
After announcing einosuke, prince daisuke felt despondent and dejected when it was time for everyone to kneel amd bow to the new emperor, Sakura rested his head on her shoulders
Every one knelt to thier emperor and swore loyalty before the throne, with a smiling face emperor einosuke welcomed their greetings.
After the coronation, regent Aoi order for some food and snacks from the imperial chefs, with adequate food drinks and snacks on all tables.
Emperor Einosuke and the audience was celebrating and jubilating, daisuke could not touch any of the drinks because of his feeling of despondency.
Consort hazel was not over whelmed by the death of the emperor she was only afraid of the consequences that comes after.
She took a sip of her wine, tasted the food and snacks presented to her without hesitation.
Hazel was feeling nauseous and dizzy, Reina could notice it but can't say a word because of her brothers and regent aoi.
Hazel re gurgitated her bollus messing the whole place and drawing people's attention to her.
"Your highness".Princess Sakura shouted.
Enuch Sawyer rushed to consort hazel palpating her."she's is burning".Enuch Sawyer shouted.
She was placed on enuch Shane's back, rushed to her quarters.
Regent Aoi was frightened by the sudden scenarios thinking her food has been poisoned just like that of emperor eiken.
Prince Daisuke bulged his eyes at general Kenji, incautiously walking after consort hazel.
Emperor Einosuke was not pleased with what has just happened,he felt like this was a distraction for his coronation.
I was still in minamto talking to yukio, my heart was broken into pieces remembering she was told that her father is imprisoned by regent aoi. "No way". I said to myself.
I knew the chances of getting him out of jail is lower than the chances of not. Riding a horse In the woods, I passed the short Cut in the woods to yamato town to see my father.
Clenching my fists in anger riding the horse faster like his execution was in two hours time or no tomorrow, soaked trauma of the death of my mother.The same spot I lost Reina.
