The Emperor's Prisoner

28

“ Cila, what happened to you?” there he just cried with his head shaking as if to prevent me from approaching. Still I walked over and looked at the servant who was holding his body. I hugged him, I saw his back and legs bleeding.

“ why this can happen?”

“ noble, ,” are just those two words he said. His body weakened almost face down on my lap.

“ dare you guys do all this” I scream scold them. Everyone was silent and did not answer.

“ who told you to do this cruel thing?”  my continue. Still no answer. They dared not look at me.

“ reply!” my sentakku. I feel Cila's body getting weaker. Even his eyes were closed.

 

“ me !“ the answer was heard from the direction of the room entrance. Guards and servants walked back away from me and Cila. My anger is overflowing, it's cruel.

“ why did you do this, what mistake did he make to punish him this cruel?” not answering, but walking closer to me. Then hands extended not to me but to the bodyguards behind us, Mr. En took his whip. If you see the whip is not too long, it has several ropes at the end that come from animal skin. If it is hit does not immediately make a bloody wound but if it has been hit many times it will tear the skin of the recipient.

 

“ you know best what mistake he did” replied softly. Guards and servants left the room. Shortly afterwards, Brother Lu came in.

“ a,a, what do you mean Mr En?” this must be because I left the palace without her. It was cruel, just because of that he punished this cruel Cila.

“ do not want to confess?, well” Mr En is ready to hit the whip. I see the target is Cila's back.

“ stop! He's innocent, cila just do what I command” I start sobbing, can't bear to see him going in the whip.

“ if you want to punish, punish me. I made a mistake, hiks ,hiks”. I hugged Cila tightly, protecting her body with my body.

“ then tell me what's your fault?” step back away from me and keep carrying the whip. I took a deep breath.

“s, I went out of the palace without asking permission to tuan” I replied. I guess that's just my fault. I'm not doing any bans.

“ do you think that's all?” she smiled disdainfully making me think more, what else am I doing wrong?.

“ according to the master what mistake did I make?” I stared hard at him. I'm sure I didn't do anything wrong again. He seemed to be breathing rough. I really made her angry. It kind of shook my courage.

“ bring the waiter” his orders to Brother Lu.

“ no, where will it take ?“ I panicked, afraid that Cila would serve another sentence. Brother Lu put away my hand. Her facial sharpener grinds ‘ is okay’. But I'm not calm, I also removed Brother Lu's hand from Cila's body.

“ concubine, please release your hands” brother Lu slightly whispered to me.

“ no, he must be treated” prevent me. I need to treat the wound immediately.

 

When I was about to pull the crazy body from Brother Lu, suddenly my arm was already pulled away. My body is out of balance and hit the big body of Mr. En.

“ calm down, our business is not finished” I saw Brother Lu already banging cila out of the room. Mr. En dragged my body and threw it on the bed.

“ why are you so cruel” shouted me. He had already thrown his whip, his bare hands were now on his waist.

“ do you want all the royal residents to know if you have not been pregnant? Go without news!, what punishment would you have if all this were revealed?. Tell me, do you no longer want revenge and want to kill yourself?.” Read Mr. En. His face was flushed with his anger.

“ You think all my efforts are just jokes?” he continued his anger. I realized, it was not only because I came out of the palace, but Mr. En was very worried about my safety.

“s, I just want to eliminate fatigue, “ I replied weakly.

“ thank you Mr. En for worrying about me, after all all this is also because Mr. En” denies me. I'm not the only one guilty here.

“ because of me? What kind of reason is this?” his anger is growing. I sit on the edge of the bed. Looked at his face.

 

“ lies that you have been hiding, I already know”. He looked surprised, slightly retreated. Her tongue squeezed her hair. Didn't know I already knew this. Tacit. Mr. En did not say a word. A warm melt flows back from the corner of my eye. This heartache finally came out.

“ it's just a political marriage, the emperor arranged it for me” her voice is somewhat weakened. All his emotions disappeared, replaced with guilt. It has to be like that.

“ wedding politics?” I laughed discordantly, though,

“ was not it Mr En himself who ordered to hasten his marriage?, five days from now” he was again silent. I looked at you, but I wasn't moved.

“ I have my own reasons”

“ yes, sir does have the right to do so. What does it mean that I am just a waiter for you”

“ Zen, didn't I tell you to start changing your views on me?” he approached, his tone becoming soft.

“ how can I change it, if all you do is just deliver me on doubt?” this melt is getting bigger. Now, Mr. En is determined to put his hand on my thigh.

“ I just don't want to ruin this relationship” softly, wipe the tears on my cheek gently.  

“ I just want an explanation from Mr. En, something you have promised. Only that can make me trust this relationship a little bit” I let go of her handrails. Turn my face and wipe the rough of these tears. I'd be lying if I couldn't see him as a husband. I'd be lying if I didn't want his attention. I lied that I didn't believe in this relationship.

“ fine, but give me time. Hemm” I stared at the manikin. There was no doubt just a plea from his heart.

“ longest, after the wedding took place” I've set. No more negotiations, I don't want to put it off. He nodded slowly, along with the light smile he gave. His face looks very happy. What's so heavy he revealed it. What he's afraid of. Can only wait.

“ your head is bleeding?” I touched my wound and a red color was seen on my palm. I nodded slowly.

“ call the healer” shouted Mr. En at the waiter guarding outside.

 

Now I've sided with myself, changed clothes and my wounds have been dealt with. All assisted by Mr. En himself. Maybe he felt guilty for punishing Cila, so all his duties were replaced. Very amusing. A crown prince becomes the personal servant of his concubine. Several times I asked how I was or how I felt. He looked anxious when he found out that the wound on my head was deep enough. Fortunately he was good at handling wounds, so there was no need to trouble the healer who only gave me concoctions and potions.

 

“ you must be hungry, eat” we are having dinner in the living room of my palace. Mr. En told the waiter to prepare the food after treating me.

“ thank you” I ate the vegetables that Mr. En put in my bowl. He looks excited. His ruthless aura had already disappeared a moment ago.

“ oia sir, brother you brought Cila where?” I forgot to ask.

“ must be to the treatment room, he looks different when treating Cila” replied Mr. En while still taking some side dishes for me.

“ different how?”

“ looks like he's interested in your waitress”

Huhuk..

I was shocked to hear that. How unlikely..

“ but Cila is too young for Brother Lu” I replied then grazed the drink Mr. En gave me.

“ I just guess, if yes, it's their business.” As if not concerned with my surprise, he was still chewing his food.

“ you guys are always alone in deciding” is upset to hear this news, no, I have to take care of Cila from Brother Lu. They deserve to be brothers. He was even 10 years old.

“ of course not, it's just that we have a faster thinking power than you” reason. Where does he want to be blamed. I became resentful myself, making my appetite go up. Take the side dish to its fullest and eat it voraciously. No matter what Mr. En looks at me.
