I'M Chinese Princess
34. The Heart of the Emperor

"Your Majesty. It's almost morning you've been without rest all night" Chen said, the sun began to appear early morning signs almost arrived, all night they did not find Liu Wen.

"No! I'm fine! There are still many areas of the Capital that we have not explored, I have to find Wen'er" said the Emperor, his eyes swollen from lack of sleep and not eating from yesterday.

"If you don't go home and rest properly, you'll be sick" Chen said, he was right to worry about the lord.

"Not calm down" the Emperor said, noting the smile on his face.

"Maybe for you there won't be any problems but if you get sick tomorrow you can't find the Empress" Chen said, this reason might succeed in making his stubborn master comply.

"Well you're right, let's go back to the palace!" The Emperor was speechless as to what Chen said was true and finally he decided to go home hearing Chen's plausible reasoning.

The Fourth Prince's Residence

"Greetings Your Highness Pengeran" Chen said, he greeted the Fourth Prince who was about to enter his residence.

"The chen? What's up here? Is Brother Xuan in trouble?"the Fourth Prince asked, it is not usual for Chen to come to him if there is no important business, he told Chen to enter his residence.

"Do you know what happened a few days ago?"chen asked, he did not see the Fourth Prince a few days ago making sure the Fourth Prince had not learned the news about Liu Wen's disappearance.

"I just came back from the mountain to pick up some herbs"

"What happened in the palace while I was away?"asked the Fourth Prince, he never knew what happened even though he was in the palace because he did not want to interfere and always did not care.

"So here's....."Chen told him everything and the Fourth Prince's reaction was not too surprised by it.

*So that's so. The sister-in-law left the palace and the Queen Mother tried to raise Consort Chu as Empress. It was indeed a good decision to leave and again.From all these events it was clear who was the mastermind behind all this-in the Fourth Prince, he breathed his breath into this increasingly difficult matter.

"I see, I'll go see big brother Xuan and talk to him" the Fourth Prince said, he went towards the Dragon Residence.

Dragon Residence

"Your Majesty, the Fourth Prince asked for permission to meet" Eunuch Ma said to Emperor Qin who was sitting in the gazebo alone. He pensively thought to himself and thought to Liu Wen if he was okay now.

"Let him enter" said the Emperor, he looked very lethargic.

"Are you okay, brother?"the Fourth Prince asked, he sat down in front of the Emperor.

"How can I be fine, I have lost my wife" said the Emperor with a low voice, as the Emperor had no more strength.

"You like it?"ask the Fourth Prince bluntly.

"Hmm no..."

"......"The Fourth Prince gasped with the answer his older brother gave.

"I love her. For years I've never touched and been attracted to women, only she's interested me, but fate isn't on my side. Being born in the palace and being required to be Emperor meant that I had to share my body with other women and could not show that I was a real man" the Emperor said, looking up at the sky, his feelings are very sad and he starts to blame his bad destiny.

"Sister-in-law must understand" the Fourth Prince said, he knew Liu Wen was actually more unconcerned with the Emperor but he was sure that his brother-in-law never blamed his brother for having multiple wives.

"No! If he understood he couldn't leave me" the Emperor jolted, he was annoyed by the circumstances he was facing, the feeling he was feeling right now was extremely tormenting to him.

"Have you ever asked him. Do you like me? Do you want to be next to me? Do you accept me for who I am?"asked the Fourth Prince, he did not understand about love but he often read books about psychology.

"I'm..."The emperor looked over and looked at his sister.

"You don't see it from his side, if you have the courage to keep chasing him and if you're still selfish, you better let him go and let him live quietly" the Fourth Prince said, he just wanted to lure his brother to express his true feelings to Liu Wen, nor did he want Liu Wen not to come back here because of his nephew.

"Junexi! How can I let go! He's mine"soot the Emperor, he pulled the Fourth Prince's collar.

"Then did he bother you that way?Let go of the thought that everything you want will be yours, I know you're in love for the first time but love is just an insignificant feeling"said the Fourth Prince coldly seeing the reaction of the Emperor he had never seen made him even more eager to tease his older brother.

"Haaa.. You are right maybe love is not a meaningful feeling but I will never give up on getting it" said the Emperor, taking off his grip.

"Hmm... alright" replied the Fourth Prince, he smiled obliquely seeing his brother who was really in love with Liu Wen made him want to laugh, this brother turned 360°ia did not even recognize him anymore.

"Oh yes, I want to ask one thing" the Fourth Prince exclaimed, she wanted to tell about her brother's baby but before that she wanted to do a simple test to find out if her brother would fully protect Liu Wen or still be bound by something else and could have sidelined Liu Wen and baby.

"Hmm? What's?"the Emperor asked, he looked at his brother seriously.

"Why are you asking me that?"the Emperor asked, a little.

"Just curious" the Fourth Prince said as he spread his shoulders.

"I'm the most important person in my life. My mother was the one who gave birth to me and Wen'er the one I loved. It seems like whatever Mom does I can't hurt her as well as Wen'er. If the two of them kill each other and one of them lives like I won't punish him" the Emperor said firmly it was a normal thought he loved his mother and wife.

"All right, let me go first" said the Fourth Prince.

*If it's your decision I'm sorry I couldn't tell you about sister-in-law's pregnancy, it'll make things even more chaotic and I'm afraid the Queen Mother will harm my niece-in-law the Fourth Prince, he got up from his seat and returned to his residence.

"Liansu... Are you ready for your stuff?"liu Wen asked Meng, who was busy helping the waiter tidy up his luggage.

"Maa.sorry Mr. Yu, Miss.I insist on wanting to help" said the servants afraid that Liu Wen would get angry.

"Dad!! Daddy's! It was not their fault that I wanted to be alone" Meng said, she was afraid that Liu Wen would be angry because he did not behave like royalty.

"Hoo... It's okay! Liansu was independent that's why I told her to go to school in the village instead of in the city. I was afraid that he would become a spoiled child and behave badly" Liu Wen said, not bothering Meng who was still working according to him it was a good habit.

"Master Yu is very kind" said the servants.

*it is as if I live in a democratic age, where there are slaves, so it is familiar to Liu Wen.

"We're leaving, let's get on the train" Liu Wen said, pulling Meng out of her room.

"Finally my dream of exploring the plain of Tiong began" Liu Wen muttered, he smiled a smile all the way.

Just an hour away Liu Wen's stomach ached. "Awww, my stomach!!"liu Wen while holding her stomach.

"What's up Your Majesty" Meng asked, she was worried to see Liu Wen who seemed to be in a lot of pain.

"Meng... let's go to the ketabib! Bring hanfu for me" Liu Wen said, he was afraid that the content was problematic, that's why wanting to heal with a woman's appearance if still an old man could be imagined how the healer's reaction was to know an old man who could get pregnant.

"Good... Your Majesty" Meng exclaimed, he could think of nothing else but Liu Wen's current health.

"Meng.. Even if I become a woman, you cannot call me Your Majesty, call me madam" Liu Wen said, warning Meng.

"Good... Madam" Meng said they stopped the horse carriage and went to the old hut to change clothes.

"This is the veil, you wear it so that no one knows you" said Meng, Liu Wen immediately put it on and headed to the nearest treatment place.

*Why is the pillow not removed? - Meng sat in the sight of Liu Wen's still enlarged stomach made her wonder, she thought for a moment and ignored him because Liu Wen complained of pain.

"How is Madam, healer?"meng asked as she sweated when she heard Liu Wen's complaint in the treatment room.

"You ready?"asked the physician, he stared cynically at Meng.

"I.." said Meng cut off by Liu Wen.

"He's my friend Mr. Yu's son, Yu Liansu" Liu Wen said scowlingly from inside the room.

"This lady has pretty great ears from this distance still heard" said the doctor smiling, the healer and Meng were outside the room while Liu Wen was inside.

"Thank you for the compliment" Liu Wen said with a sweet smile.

"All right! It's free if I don't tell you" said the healer into the room leaving Meng outside.

"What happened to me? Is my content okay?"asked Liu Wen, he glanced back to make sure there was no Meng here.

"You should be almost four months pregnant but the heartbeat or movement of the baby in the stomach is not there not to mention you arrive with stomach pain." said the healer while thinking.

"Yes so... My baby is good, right?"liu Wen asked worriedly. Was it because of climbing the wall yesterday or because of eating anything.

"I think your child in the cage is dead" said the healer to Liu Wen's surprise.

"Me..died?"liu Wen's tears fell, whether he failed to look after his even unborn child.
