However, Tanaka Minoru, brother of the King Akiyoshi wanted to upsurb the throne and decides to attack the ruler. Minoru massacred all the royal subjects and guards, including King Akiyoshi and his family (comprising of Queen Umi and Tanaka Ainosuke).

Prologue

"your highness~" the couple knelt before the Queen.

 
"please accept my request. I do not have much time left... raise this child like yours... change his name and everything else, do all you can to hide his identity"
 
"we'll be honored to bring him up" the husband replied while the wife nodded.
 
"if we survive this rebellion, I'll come back for him."
 
"we will raise him and wait for your return, my royal highness"
 
"one more thing~ don't let anyone know his real identity... your lives could be endangered. protect your family, protect my son."
 
the couple exchanged looks of anxiety and worry.
 
The guard passed a sleeping baby to the Queen. She looked at the baby with tearful eyes. 
 
"Ainosuke... I'm sorry you're born into this world and I've to give you away. you'll understand that all this is necessary to protect your life. I don't want you to suffer in the hands of the enemy. they'll kill you . this family will take good care of you and shower you with the love that I can't provide. live happily my dear son. stay alive."
 
the heartwrenching sight of the Queen and her only son and heir to the throne, Prince Ainosuke, affected the couple emotionally. even the guards, the only other people present in this top secret meeting teared at the parting words spoken by the Queen.
 
the baby didn't cry, his tiny hands grabbed his mother's palms like as though he understood his mother's pain.
 
but the Queen gently removed his hands and placed her lips on his small fingers... tears dropped. finally and unbearably, she passed her son to the lovely couple.
 
"from now on, you will be his parents until I return to claim him back. protect him with your lives and you'll be rewarded and blessed with eternal fortune and good life."
 
she removed a necklace from her neck and passed it to the couple
 
"this necklace will be his only identification. it comes in a pair. keep it well and hidden."
 
"sayonara Ainosuke"
 
the Queen stood up and left with the guards.
 
the couple could see the tears in the corner of the Queen's eyes as she left her son. the couple sincerely wished that the capital can survive this ordeal and the Queen can reunite with her son.
 
the couple stood close together with the baby in their hands.
 
the mother turned to look at a closed bedroom where her legitimate 2 year old son is sound asleep, and looked down at her bulging tummy.
 
the husband wrapped her tightly and said "don't worry... we can safely bring up this child, and he'll live harmoniously with our family, just like our child. all of us will be safe"
...
Tanaka Akiyoshi (the King) is overthrown by Tanaka Minoru, the King's brother. Everyone who is related to the King, including his subjects were executed. The King, Queen and their only son, Tanaka Ainosuke who was recently born, were killed during the uprising.
 
Their bodies were never found.
 
The state of Aoihoshi suffers a period of unrest as the people were upset over the loss of their great king. but the new King introduced laws to oppress the people and those who disobeyed will be publicly executed. 
 
only after the people gave up and unwillingly pledged allegiance to the new King that the state finally restored to normality. it lost its former glory and everywhere is filled with crooks, burglars and murders.
