Can I See You Again

Punishment For Princess Shin

At the same time the king felt a heavy pressure on his chest. It was difficult for him to decide the fairest punishment for those he had so strongly believed would not betray. Lee Young looked towards the throne and felt very pity. It must have been hard for the king to punish his own family.

Before entering on the harshest sentence, the Secretary of State read out the results of the king's decision to Ha Sun, the husband of Princess Shin who is an enemy spy.

"Further punishment for Ha Sun, the only son of the Chief Minister of Finance and Taxation who is involved in the case of palace information theft, identity fraud, tax evasion, treason, the sale of underage girls to the enemy country, as well as personal crimes such as rape to cause death, kidnapping, aborting the baby, and violence against the wife who is the king's only daughter, or hanging as a last resort!"

GECK! GECK!

Punishment for middle-class crimes was officially completed. The officers then ran in, bringing the king's final decision paper on the four heavy suspects that day.

The king closed his eyes, trying hard to hold back his tears for this one decision.

"Well, the latter is a decision for the four defendants with the largest cases in history. We begin by reading the final verdict to Princess Shin, the eldest daughter of the king who was involved in the murder of Her late Majesty Queen Kim. To the officers, please bring the suspect in."

Everyone put their hands together. They knew it was a tough decision for the king, and they knew what decision was right for Princess Shin. However, they were still hoping for a miracle, given how glorious Princess Shin was in everyone's eyes. Very beautiful, very intelligent, cheerful, friendly, humble, and likes to share. The pain is not only felt by the family, but also by almost all the people.

Prince Hon and Prince Yul could no longer hold back the tears, as their older brother was brought in in shabby clothes that did not reflect him at all. Princess Shin's stomach had grown. Today or in a few days, maybe she'll give birth soon. Too bad, she had to enjoy the last remaining pregnancy yesterday inside the prison.

Jung Hyun tightly clenched his hands, looking at the girl he loved so much pale-faced with such a big belly. After all, Princess Shin was carrying her baby.

The king fell from the throne. Eunuch Cho and Jung Hyun asked the king to stand up again. The king sobbed until his teeth were seen. Perhaps it was painful, because all this time Princess Shin was a very very precious and very kind person to him. Just imagine, when everyone hated him .. his older sister was the only one who loved him. Invite him to play, put his hair out, take him out, and the only one who isn't afraid to lecture him.

"Princess Shin, are you ready?" ask the Secretary of State. Princess Shin only nodded, occasionally wiping away her tears.

Jung Hyun closed his eyes. It was very difficult for him to endure the cries that he had wanted to spill.

"Well, we'll read the final decision today."

"Princess Shin, the palace's first princess and the only king's daughter who has long been a role model for many societies has been shown to commit the heaviest crime in history, hiding the murder case that happened to Queen Kim. The prescribed penalty of beheading, which will be carried out after she gives birth, is officially annulled!"

All eyes were in disbelief. The king of this country is truly generous. As a result of Princess Shin's mistake, the king suffered for years.

"Cancelled?"

Princess Shin immediately flinched, holding onto her stomach with a thorough cry.

"Daughter Shin, was one of the people who had saved the king's life from various threats. She placed flowers on the grave of Queen Kim every day. I have contributed a lot since my teenage years. She was the only princess sent to the Qing Dynasty to study and successfully unite two countries at once. Donating 70 percent of his wealth to the people. Dig a well for free in the middle of the settlement without the palace's knowledge. Building a home for abandoned children and the elderly. The construction of a public hospital that was financed for more than 7 years by him also gained tremendous blessings for the country. Together with Prince Hon and Young Master Jun, helped finance the location of cultural marketing. Princess Shin, put her signature on the stone forest preservation fringe area. Therefore, the palace has received more than a thousand signatures petitioning against the death penalty for him. More than half of the population rejects the death penalty."

"And, without being bound by any persuasion from any side, the king absolutely decided there was no death sentence for Princess Shin!"

"Punishment changes based on applicable law. Honorably, Princess Shin was officially expelled from the palace! All titles and facilities will be revoked soon! He was expelled from the palace without bringing anything! The titles of nobleman and Princess of the King attached to Kim Shin-Ah or what you used to know as Princess Shin were officially revoked! Princess Shin will soon be sent as a slave after giving birth. However, he was not exiled nor was he sent away from the land. If her slave status has been redeemed, she has the right to live and live freely in this country again as a commoner, no longer a daughter of the king, nor a noble!"

Somehow the king's decision made Princess Shin smile with relief. She was sobbing but like so loose and happy. Being sent as a slave was pitiful, but at least he could still see his son later.

The king approached the elder brother, hugging him for the last time. "Sister, I'm sorry. This is all I can do to save you, "sobbed the king hugging his brother.

Princess Shin touched both of her sister's cheeks. "Don't be like that. I am tired of being a princess. Sometimes being a slave makes me curious." Princess Shin wiped away the king's tears with her thumb. "Be a just and good king like you. Do you remember when you were a kid? I hit your arm because I was crying. So stop crying, so I don't hit you in the face either." Although in a sad state, Princess Shin still had time to joke with her sister.

Jung Hyun looked at her lover's face, smiling with her from a distance.

The Secretary of State took back another paper, after Princess Shin was escorted away and the king returned to the throne.

"Furthermore for the Queen Mother or what you know first as Queen Kim, has been proven to have committed premeditated murder to the late Her Majesty Queen Kim before. These crimes include acts of treason and rebellion, under applicable law. The death penalty by drinking poison is the only one, but the king preferentially used the Right of Grasi (A special right for him to reduce or negate the sentence for the suspect who was sentenced to death) to His Majesty the Queen Mother. Therefore, the punishment was still under observation and consideration! Punishment will be announced as soon as the review ends!"

Hearing the king who was still considering the death penalty for the Queen Mother made everyone inexhaustible. The king was too kind for the man who had already ruined his life. Prince Hon, Prince Yul, and Princess Shin were embarrassed and cornered.

"Next, for Prime Minister Han! Take this heavy man in!"

Kreet!!

The main door of the palace was opened. The officers dragged Prime Minister Han into the field, following with Jun.
