The Story Behind the Jade Pendant
Royal traitor

after one week passed, the second prince did not also get news and information from Mr. Yang. The second prince could not just stay silent without acting, finally he also told one of his subordinates, he said, to go look for master Yang. because he felt cheated by the emperor, now master Yang can not just act.

shortly afterwards someone came to his house and he seemed to convey something to Mr. Yang.seen from the monitoring place of the third prince, Mr. Yang and that person was like he was planning something. the third prince went to report it to the emperor.

"your honor, there's something I want to report to you"

"my sister told me not to call me that. We're family, just call me brother. Then what do you want to report to me?"

"this brother, just from the monitoring place, I saw someone coming to Mr. Yang's house, they seemed to be planning something. It seems that after one week there was no movement, making the second prince become unable to bear with it and it is possible that today, lord Yang will go to his place and give information to the second prince"

"you are absolutely right, then immediately send some people to guard around the area of Mr. Yang's house. When there is movement from his we will make an ambush on him"

"i want to hear, once he's captured, what he's going to say about the second prince"

"all right, brother, then I leave to carry out my duties and you don't need to preach about Mr. Yang, because we can definitely catch him today"

"good sister, then be careful"

after getting word from that person, now that Master Yang started acting strangely, he seemed to be looking around and seeing if there were spies following him or not. it was late at night and it was a fixed time for Mr. Yang to go to meet the second prince.

mr. Yang left wearing a black robe and he certainly did not go alone, he was accompanied by bodyguards and also some of the second prince's men. the third prince who saw it then told the royal guards to go follow Mr. Yang.

they went by horse-drawn carriage and stopped at the intersection of the city, after which he seemed to enter a place.The place turned out to be a brothel and the second prince invited him to meet there. mr. Yang arrived and went inside, and the third prince and his guards pretended to be visitors to the brothel so that they could keep an eye on Mr. Yang's movements.

mr. Yang entered into a special room that he had ordered since this morning, he was waiting for the second prince to come, shortly after that came a young man wearing a mask and he also walked with one limp leg.The third prince saw him and suspected that there was a second prince.

the second prince went into the same room as master Yang, the third prince immediately went and chased after him.The entire bodyguard had been scattered to various places in the brothel so that they could not escape easily. when mister Yang wanted to pass on the information to the Second Prince, suddenly the third prince along with some of his guards came and surrounded him.

they were both shocked, then they wanted to escape immediately, but they had been blocked by the guards.Mr Yang felt cornered finally he called the group dressed in black who had attacked the third prince. mr. Yang told the group, to immediately take the second prince away from that place.

the third prince directly told some other bodyguards to restrain Lord Yang and not let him go, the black-clothed group took out a poisonous powder towards them, then carried away the second prince. fortunately before master Yang was successfully taken away, the third prince had held him back and finally the black-clothed group left and only brought the second prince.

meanwhile because the third prince had obtained evidence of Lord Yang's involvement with the second prince, he said, finally he was taken to the royal palace to face the emperor and give an explanation to the emperor about his involvement with the second prince.

the emperor already knew that the third prince had managed to capture lord Yang, who had been an accomplice to the second prince. the third prince brought lord Yang to the emperor and he is now tied to a pillar of torture by the emperor.The emperor asked him since when he became the second prince.

"hahaha..you want to know why I was on the second prince's side? and why would I prefer to cooperate with her? let me be clear with you, it's because I hate your family so much"

"what do you mean? what did our family do to make you so hate us, the royal family?"

"you still want to pretend you don't remember the incident? do I have to explain it from the beginning, so you can understand?"

"don't say much just tell me, the cause"

"what is your relationship with Minister Yan and why can you do that?"

"emperor oh emperor, remember the time when the royal family slaughtered the entire Yan family who had been devoting himself to the kingdom? you know they were all my family when I was in chong town with Mr. Yang"

"but after a while there was news of the Yan family's arrest, knowing that old master Yang wanted to capture me and hand me over to the kingdom"

"and because at that time, I was in an unfavorable condition.I was forced to kill him while there including his bodyguards, including his, mr. Yang had died at my own hands and because I was panicking about this incident, I went and hid the body somewhere"

"then after a day later, I heard about a reliable mask maker in the city of Chong, I was interested and I wanted to change my face to that of Mr. Yang, at that time I immediately came to see him and I also brought a painting of Mr. Yang's face"

"before long the mask has been finished by her, I am very happy to see the result of such a perfect mask, with this I will take the place of lord Yang in the Xiao kingdom. after that I returned with my bodyguards, while passing through the city gate of Xiao kingdom, no one suspected me, they actually considered me as the Yang master, the truth"

"i returned to the kingdom and after arriving at the palace, I who was a member of the Yan family saw with my own eyes, my own head, an act of slaughter against the entire Yan family and without guilt you all killed my family"

"it was then that I began to inculcate a great grudge against the royal family, after I learned that the second prince was not the emperor's flesh and blood, I intend to utilize her to become a monster that will destroy her own kingdom. back then I secretly gave her support and information as master Yang, hahaha how you are satisfied to hear that"

"it turns out you're part of a family of traitors, you don't deserve to live in this kingdom and your family deserves it because you're a family of traitors"

"hahaha..just use it you are angry with me, right now the second prince has consumed my incitement, maybe after you kill me, he will definitely be more vengeful on you guys"

"Just try and see how brave he is and what he can do without support and strength"

"hahaha.really you stupid emperor, before I die of course I have prepared everything for the second prince and with this he will definitely be able to get rid of you"

"i don't care what you say, now tell me where the second prince of the traitor is?"

"if the emperor wanted to know, then the emperor had to find out for himself where he was and I had sworn myself to death, I would not give any information about the second prince's whereabouts"

"o. well, you'd rather die apparently, then I'll grant you your last wish"

"guard listen to my orders, announce to everyone that the traitor of the Xiao kingdom who had been involved with the second prince and had committed the murder of the emperor had been caught and with this, he said, mr. Yang will be executed tomorrow at the royal execution site"

"well, your Majesty, we will do it"

after knowing the identity and also the involvement of Lord Yang with the second prince, made the emperor very angry and now lord Yang got the death sentence from the emperor. the next morning was the day that lord Yang the traitor would be executed and shown to all the people of the Xiao kingdom, as a form or example for what would happen to a royal traitor.

when executed, Mr. Yang still laughed and he still had time to say if the second prince would definitely be the next emperor for the Xiao kingdom. the emperor was angry to hear that then the emperor told the executor to immediately finish him off.

his head was cut off and his blood was scattered everywhere.making the emperor disgusted by it, eventually the emperor told his subordinates to throw the corpse of master Yang into the forest in order to be eaten by the beasts. the third prince who was at that time, accompanying the emperor felt that his brother was a person who could not be underestimated.
