The Emperor's Prisoner

23

“ ah,,, the important thing is that you have to believe that the crown prince is so eager to protect you. If there is news of a miscarriage it could be that the crown prince will be forced to marry the crown princess of choice empress.” What are the words of Brother Lu. Why did Mr. En cover all this from me. Even proposed to do this plan.

 

“ didn't Mr En give this proposal?”

“ no choice, where might force you to do it. “ ceplos kak Lu

“ sorry concubine Zen. I mean, the crown prince is unlikely to impose his will.”

“ why didn't Mr En say anything about the crown princess?”

“ I don't know either, maybe she doesn't want concubine misunderstand”

 

I don't think it's possible for Mr. En to think that way, protect and avoid misunderstandings. Although our relationship is husband and wife but I still consider Mr. En to be my superior, although I am also not sure of this feeling. But if it's true if maybe Mr. En has feelings for me.

 

“ concubine,,” call brother Lu disperse my daydream.

“ does lord En have feelings for me?” I better ask her brother Lu. He was always with Mr. En, maybe he could answer.

“ I see it seems to exist, your relationship is quite complicated. Didn't the concubine also have feelings for the crown prince?” I need to think about this. Why my heart refuses to answer no.

“ emm,, I'm not sure either. “

“ maybe if the concubine herself offers a proposal about the pregnancy, the crown prince must think about it”

“,,aaa,, I have not been able to decide. “ lirihku. This feeling is still doubtful. Don't want to be tied up too long in the palace, where maybe I have a successor to the kingdom. No, I can't risk this. I might even be imprisoned in the palace. But I also feel heavy with Mr. En's forced marriage.

“ try concubine think carefully. What would happen if the empress forced the crown prince to marry. Could-can his position will be threatened.”

“ threatened? How can?”

 

“ concubines still do not understand, it has been a long time since a cold war occurred between the empress and the crown prince.” Brother Lu whispered. I glared at the words of Brother Lu. All this time their relationship seemed to be fine. Never seen each other squabble or squabble. Wait, that night I could see the flash of hatred on Mr. En's bead. What Brother Lu could have said was true.

 

“ mean brother Lu, the empress has bad intentions on Mr En?” he nodded confidently. All this time it was only Brother Lu the confidant of Master En. All his words could not have been made up.

 

“ then it is better for the concubine to understand the situation of the kingdom from now on, the enemy of the crown prince is also in the members of the kingdom.” I thought Mr. En had been treated with tenderness and happiness. Who would have thought that the empress was not the mother of Mr. En and had bad intentions for her. Indeed, this kingdom looks magnificent on the outside but inside it is full of conflict and hatred. Yeah, I have to be careful. Don't let me harm Mr. En.

 

The conversation was over by midnight, the few soldiers on guard were on daily patrol. Our togetherness might even cause trouble so Brother Lu and I ended the discussion that night.

 

Even so, my mind is still agitated by the words of Brother Lu about the relationship of Mr. En with the empress. If from childhood Mr. En does not know the existence of his mother, then it can be concluded that Mr. En never get the love of a mother.

 

The splendor I've seen so far is just the knot of loneliness and sadness that Mr. En has been through. It is not to blame if Mr. En's attitude is so harsh and considerate. Even in the family there are enemies. If not careful then the abyss of suffering awaits.

 

The conversation with Brother Lu has made my view of Mr. En slightly change. No longer see him arrogant and want to win alone, but see the dignity and attention of master En to the kingdom.

 

 

If you recall, actually pregnant or not, Mr. En would have agreed. Didn't he say he only gave 1 month for me to consider him a husband. It could be said that this desire, Mr. En had wanted it from the beginning.

 

The problem is with me, I still hesitate to trust him completely. Since knowing that Mr. En had a relationship with the designer, the dream of cultivating throughout Mr. En's life has been lost. There is only revenge and revenge. Was my thinking wrong?.

“Cila , what kind of relationship do you think me and the crown prince have?” we are currently enjoying the night. Because almost last night I couldn't sleep, so breakfast this time was at lunchtime. At least my reason is quite reasonable, however I am a pregnant mother. In the eyes of others.

 

“ yes relationship concubine and crown prince. Like husband and wife” the answer is short. So plain and simple.

“ how do you see the crown prince's treatment of me?” I kept asking Cila to get the answers I was looking for.

“emm ,, the crown prince treated the mistress well, considerate and like a husband most” again the answer could not satisfy me.

“ if I am, how do you see me treating the crown prince?” cila looked a little confused by the series of questions I gave her.  

“ emm, how ya?” while glancing at me.

“ tell me honestly, I won't scold you” I tried to convince him to get the answer I was looking for.

“ the mistress looks so respectful to the crown prince, even as fear and keep her distance. But the gaze of the mistress' eyes looks different to the crown prince”

“ different how?” I was quite enthusiastic after hearing Cila's reply.

“ hem, yes different, like a gaze full of longing”

“ do you know how to look longing?”

“ yes, when sister Suki met me a few years ago” her answer touched my heart. I feel guilty making him sad by remembering his late brother. So I gave a warm hug to Cila.

“ you must be feeling sad, “

“ now I am no longer sad. Knowing that brother has been with madam, he must be as happy as I am. Madam is the best person” I can't reply to her words. We both have no family to back up, making this bond even stronger.

 

A few days later I was still playing the show complaining about food that was too bland. Ask for menus that are difficult and quite expensive. Several times I also had time to vomit food, as a result the kitchen waiter became a little confused to make a suitable food.

 

Not until there, now my sleeping hours change. At night I used to read books or practice light in my room. It made me sleepy in the morning. I even wake up more often during the day. All in accordance with the instructions given by Mr. En. I became more relaxed and pampered. At least behind this grueling charade there is still an advantage that I get.

 

It has been a few days since, Mr. En has still not visited me since the last time when planning this matter. It seemed like he was quite busy, endless royal duties came to him. Pity there is also no free time to indulge like me.

 

During that time also I was still in a dilemma, between doing the advice of Brother Lu or trying to be indifferent to the future of Master En. It's the same as choosing between selfishness or sacrifice. I know myself if I still owe my life to Mr. En, but Mr. En also still owes me an explanation. It seems like I'm a little wobbly, no!, master En and I have different affairs. It was impossible for the empress to force her to marry the daughter of her chosen makota. Mr. En is not a man to be defeated. I have to stay in my mind.
