The Heart of the Cruel Emperor
11. Clues

It had been these few days that the figure of emperor Ryu had turned ferocious. I don't know what happened made the entire palace residents hassles half to death.

They - all the palace guards in the guard alerted by him tightened the security of the palace. While residents inside the palace are not allowed to leave the palace area at all except for their direct permission. What a bad thing.

Everyone guessed what happened?

Unless one person causes the emperor's change to go crazy. He did not want to bother about it . But the one thing that made him uneasy at this moment his precious object disappeared.

"What are you looking for, hani" asked Lily looking at just who was busy looking for something.

"Yes, my hairpin is gone. And it's very precious to me". Anxious Hani breaks Abrik's whole room.

"What does it look like I've probably seen it?"

"Like a regular hair pin. It is made of wood and has a carving shape like everyone else selling in the market. Did you see him?"Hani outlined its shape.

" No, I've never seen it, after all, isn't it too old-fashioned for you to wear."

" You mean?" Hani furrowed her brows not understanding.

" I mean, isn't a wooden hairpick a parent's hairpick. Even the young girls have now changed a lot to the more luxurious and beautiful silver hair skewers. Is that a hairpick your parents gave you". Ask lili

"Hem yes" I'd rather say it like that than tell him he'd know everything. And also where else should I look .all the places I go I have searched . but I did not find them. did they fall on the page?.

Hani is very nervous he looks sorry not to keep it well. Even it was a precious gift from her brother .I have to how?

Hani bit her lips restlessly.

Hachi...

Commander Hiro's training sword trang was thrown away . Emperor Ryu furrowed his brows

" you're not focused . What was?

" no. No pardon your noble servant". Commander Hiro rubbed his nose looking itchy.

"Let's rest . Looks like you're exhausted "

"Okay, your honor"

"Have you found him?" Asked the emperor Ryu immediately, he wanted to know about the information about his goddess that he was looking for.

"Force the noble servant.the nil quest. The villagers never saw the girl. And also the forest area had the main warrior comb. They found no sign of anyone living there".

"What is the main soldier doing his duty secretly?"

"Yes, according to your orders".

Emperor Ryu smiled obliquely.

" He'll never be found by Hiro".

Commander Hiro frowned not understanding

"do you mean your highness?".

"It looks like he followed us all the way here or not. I met him last night at the sakura pavilion and he escaped.

Now you know the reason, don't you? why I am tightening palace security .

And can you investigate this. I want to know where it came from".

Emperor Ryu gave a neatly wrapped object to the commander of Hiro. A wooden hairpin that looks familiar to Hiro.

" this? Who gave him his majesty?"

"The girl died by accident, maybe God wanted me to meet her again.  That's why I'm asking for your help".

"Well I'll find out". Commander Hiro lowered his head obediently.

"Hiro, please come back the way you were . I told you already. If we are both like this, never wear the position we are holding. You are my friend. Do you understand Hiro?. "

Pinta the Ryu emperor.

Commander Hiro soon passed after paying his respects to emperor Ryu. He does not want to linger with the discussion of the past that makes him feel sorry and disappointed.

"Eunuch Lee!" the emperor Ryu shouted to his trusted Eunuch to approach him in the middle of the training arena.

" yes, your majesty "

"Prepare my lunch in the library".

"Okay, your honor"

Emperor Ryu's footsteps left the training arena. Eunuch Lee could see behind the back of emperor Ryu stored a lot of darkness.

"Your majesty can you be happy someday?". Pinta Kasim Lee said no one heard.

                  ************

All the dishes were neatly arranged on that table. From the fruitful to the dry. From the sweet to the spicy.

Emperor Ryu ate his food like an unfeeling person. Just look at it chewing like its tasteless bland food. Even I can guarantee the cooking is very good .Pity the chefs who have bet hard work to cook it. But who eats it though never praises it cih?

Hani looked cynically at emperor Ryu who was eating while occasionally glancing at the paper scroll beside him.

It seemed like the paper scroll was more important than the food he devoured. The cruel emperor. Hani grouse in heart.

"Why are you staring at me?" emperor Ryu raised his gaze to make Hani shocked instantly. He had just discovered that the emperor Ryu had a keen sense of sight. Even if I don't see it. He could see Hani staring at him.

Hani immediately lowered his gaze he did not want anything to happen again.

"Pardon the noble servant".

" Bring me the book The royal plan . Quickly Search!". Emperor Ryu's orders make Hani rush to find her. It just so happened that he was looking for information from this place . He cannot waste his opportunity.

It is a very large library. He must quickly find it. The Emperor would suspect if he was too long.

Where's that document? Hani searched the entire shelf quickly and very carefully but he could not find it. It's about time I have to go back, otherwise he'll be suspicious. I'm sorry I couldn't find a clue.

Hani is disappointed another time he will look for her back in this library . Maybe the document is tucked among the many books that are mounted in this library.

His steps were listless but he was a little happy because he had found the place he had been looking for. The palace library that housed all the royal knowledge. Be it education, medicine, military and others . The source is here even about the first royal biography here.

"Honor to your majesty may your majesty be healthy always".

Hani heard someone's voice. He immediately hid among the gaps of the book. Hani was unable to see the person clearly because his existence was a bit far away. However, he could hear her talk a little though a little quietly.

"What made you come here?"Emperor Ryu asked to see an old man with gray hair still the same as before.

"Hamba asked permission to include the achievements of the commander of Hiro who had won various wars in the royal document. Didn't his majesty order a servant to it ?".

"Oh that" the emperor Ryu remembered it. he wanted to give the best gift to his friend Hiro . He wants his achievements to be remembered from time to time in the future . Therefore he asked the author of the document to face him .

"You, go to my room and do it . I want to see her later". 

"Your highness" . The man withdrew from the library. Hani who was in the gap of the large bookshelf could not see his face as a whole . He could only see the clothes he was wearing.

Who's the old man? I need to find her right away. Hani thought in silence. He still daydreams without knowing others are aware of his eavesdropping existence.

Emperor Ryu approached him quickly he held Hani's neck very firmly. Until the book Hani was holding fell .

"Y-his majesty" Hani could not breathe his throat tight due to the grip of the emperor's hand. He can not fight with his skills.it will dismantle the disguise that he has been doing so far.

"What have you heard? Does everything? "Ryu's cashier whispered in Hani's ear making her feel a deep fear.

"Pardon the noble servant".

"It looks like your ears should be cut off".

Hani's eyes widened.for the second time Emperor Ryu made him feel afraid.

and with a casual tone the emperor Ryu smiled sinisterly . Apparently, Hani's life won't be long.

What am I supposed to do? Do I have to use my skills? God please help me. Hani can't do anything .

"Yes-Her majesty to-please". It was Hani's voice that the last emperor heard from Hani's mouth. Before the eyes closed tightly.
