Chapter 9

You woke up and noticed he wasn't there, you saw the maids prepare the hanfu for you, it was more empress style.

(This one :) )

You got up and washed and prepared, but today you wanted to visit the jail. You went to the throne room and saw Shen, proclaiming himself Emperor of Gongmen City. And you were his empress by what he proclaimed.

You sigh and walk to him. He looked at you and sighed happily and came to you and kissed your forehead.

Emperor Shen:" How did you sleep."

You:" I slept very well, your highness. "

You said bowing to him, he smiled more and chuckled.

Emperor Shen:" I wonder why you are here, my empress."

You:" I would like to visit the jail today, to see the prisoners, if my dear husband permits this request."

Shen wasn't pleased, but he nodded and snapped his fingers, his two stronger warriors and two trustful maids came and bowed to you two.

Emperor Shen:" Well, you can go, but accompanied by my trustful people. I order you two best guards from my army, to protect and be sure that my empress is safe and sound. And you two ladies, I hope you bring anything to accompany her visit to the jail."

You saw them nod and the maids run to prepare the basket for food and drinks, while his strongest men were by your side, you nod to him and bow.

You:" Thank you..."

You began to walk but he stopped you and turned you around to face him.

Emperor Shen:" You forgot something, my empress?"

You knew what he was talking about, you kissed him and hugged him. You pull away and bow and leave.

Once you arrived at the Gongmen prison at Black Dragon Alley, you saw two guards, they bowed to you and opened the door. As you walk in, you see the maids with two baskets, you wonder what he had planned. But when you arrived at the room filled with jail, you saw the three masters sitting. You turn to the girls and they bring you the basket and you go to the door and bow to them.

You:" Masters"

They noticed you and came to you, worried.

Master Thundering Rhino:" Princess, are you alright, did Lord Shen do something."

One of the bodyguards knocks on the door.

Bodyguard:" It's Empress! Not a princess!"

The three masters' eyes wide, they all look at you and notice indeed your clothes were showing you were the empress of Gongmen City.

Master Croc:" How did this happen?!"

Master Storming Ox:" You two got married, that is a betrayal for your royal family, majesty!!"

Your eyes were wide and tears came. Master Thundering Rhino saw that and punched Master Storming Ox. Which he was rubbing his cheek

Master Thundering Rhino:" She had nothing to do with it.. She did it for her family. Who knows what Lord Shen told her..."

You turn to your bodyguards and maids.

You:" Could you leave us alone.. For a moment... Please..."

They all nod, the maids leave the basket and walk aside the bodyguards.

You turn to the masters and give them the baskets.

You:"Master Thundering Rhino is right...He...He threatened me with killing my younger siblings.. If I didn't do as he said or ordered..."

The masters began to feel pity for you and they continue to hear your explanation.

You:" I left Palace Jade and came here to protect my brothers! My sisters! My mom! My father! I did it for them! And you! Master Storming Ox ! You said I betray my family! Not even a hundred years I wouldn't do that! I did it to protect them! I kept Shen under my fingers, he was calm and didn't plan to kill anyone! As long i...."

You looked at them, hesitated what you were going to tell them, but it was the best for the two worlds.

You:" As long as I keep his bed warm, and fulfil his needs."

All masters were in shock, they knew what you meant by that. Master Storming Ox was freaking out by the statement, while Master Croc was lost in his thoughts. But Master Thundering Rhino was understandable, he held your hands.

You look at him, tears rolling down and you sob.

Master Thundering Rhino:" Don't need to say more, as an older master, I understand the sacrifice you made. It takes a lot of courage to do the best, not only for your people but your Royal Family. None of us should criticize you for doing what is best."

You sob more and kneel down, you were crying with relief, you always knew Master Thundering Rhino was a wise man and kind one and mature.

The other masters saw your state and looked at each other, and nodded and understood you.

You four kept talking. You saw them eating and drinking tea until the bodyguards and maids came.

Maid:" Your highness it's time to come back."

You nod and look at them and hold their hands and smile at them. And you leave them. You walked into the city and you saw people bow to you. You didn't like that. Once you arrived at the Palace, you saw Emperor Shen waiting for you.

Emperor Shen:" Ah, my beautiful wife."

He noticed your tears and came quickly and cleared them and kissed your checks.

Emperor Shen:" What happened, did one of those masters insult you? Tell me i will make sure they won't say it again."

You shake your head no, and you hug him. You feel his hand around your waist and pull you closer to him.

You:" No. These are happy tears, I could see them. Thank you for letting me see them... And spare Master Thundering Rhino life."

Emperor Shen:" hmm~As long as you are here with me, you won't need to worry about anything. Let's go. We must eat lunch and then we can walk around the city if you want."

You:" That would be great..Thank you..."

Chánjuān P.O.V

In the Palace Jade, I was walking around and I noticed the Royal parade.

I ran downstairs and saw (Y/n) Olders brothers, they weren't happy. Not even a bit.

Chánjuān:"Your majesty... What are you doing here?!"

Emperor Hu:" I AM HERE TO TALK TO THAT DRAGON WARRIOR! WHERE IS HE?! BRING ME TO HIM!"

I was scared of the emperor Hu, but his brother Prince Jing was calm as the water.

Prince Jing:" Please Chánjuān, do what the Emperor says... This is an emergency matter."

I nod and lead them to the Shifu and Furious five and Po. I saw Emperor Hu angry, he was like a fire out of control.

Emperor Hu:" WHAT A DRAGON WARRIOR YOU ARE!"

Master Shifu bows to the new emperor and tries to figure out what is going on. Prince Jing gives the message to Shifu.

Once Shifu rode, his heart dropped. I could see his eyes. I was worried and I grabbed the message and my heart also dropped, my eyes began to water and I kneeled down.

Emperor Hu:" My informers told me! That my sister! Is now the Empress of Gongmen City! What is the meaning of this! Our father died from a damn stroke once he read this message! Our Mother is now an Empress Dowager! She is now in tears and blaming herself over and over!"

Prince Jing:" The palace only speaks about this matter. Our parents trust you Dragon Warrior to protect our sister. And now that happens. Anything in your defence?"

Po:" I DIDN'T KNOW THAT?! I saw her running and Chánjuān was following her! I didn't know she was going to run away!"

They look at me, I sigh and explain the situation, the more I explain what happened, the Emperor is angrier. Like fire spreading across the forest and the valley and anything, he can burn. While Prince Jing was calm and rational like the water, I knew that calm water could turn into a storm any second.

After I finish explaining, they bow to me and thank me for trying to stop their sister. They turn to Dragon warriors.

Emperor Hu:" You better bring her here! Once she returns, she will return to the Palace!"

Prince Jing:" I hope he didn't..Well you know..What you do with your concubines and empress..."

Emperor Hu:" Don't even talk about it! I heard he did it anyway! Which gave another reason for our father's death! Once the message arrived, Lord Shen did indeed marry our sister! The worst of my nightmares he did claim her, as his empress and wife..."

Prince Jing:" Be prepared to be an Uncle.... I am sure the mother will be thrilled to be grandmother to Lord Shen's child..."

Prince Jing was being sarcastic, I never saw him being sarcastic about anything.

Emperor Hu:" I will kill that child...With my bare hands."

Chánjuān:" The baby doesn't have a fault with anything?!"

Prince Jing:" Chánjuān is right, brother. The baby doesn't have any fault for his father's sins. Leave the baby alone.. Maybe our sister will hate you if you kill the baby."

Emperor Hu:" You are right.. The baby will not have any fault for his father's sins. If our sister gets pregnant... I and my wife and mom will take care of her and the little baby."

He sighs in disappointment and is angry and worried.

Emperor Hu:" I have heard from my informers, Lord Shen is going to prepare for war. We don't know, it could be days, weeks, months, years. We want you, the furious five, Chánjuān and Dragon warrior, to stop him, and his dangerous weapon."

Chánjuān:" About my father?! He is alright.."

Emperor Hu:" Thanks to my sister, is what I have heard... She stops Lord Shen to kill your father and spare his life. We don't know he could snap and kill your father.. Be grateful for it. I know my sister will never betray her family. He probably threatened her with something precious.."

Chánjuān:" Her family. I know he probably threatened to kill you all if he ever conquers China! His goal after all is to conquer all of China!"

Prince Jing nodded and turned to his emperor brother.

Prince Jing:" We better get back to Beijing brother. We need to prepare for anything. Just destroy his weapon, I can see it can destroy Kung Fu forever. I heard"

The Emperor and Prince left with anger in their eyes and were disappointed by the dragon warrior. Once they left, everyone was looking at Po.

I could see Po's heart being broken, he was so sad. He began to see the furious five going while I stayed behind for him. He runs to the palace.

I look at the Crane and sigh. We both prepare for the journey. We began to travel. I and Crane saw how sad Po was. But we needed to focus.

We're now in the boat. I noticed Po wasn't sleeping, I heard him scream with frustration and say inner peace over and over. I walked out and I saw him with Tigress training.

Po:" Hi Chánjuān.... Sorry did I wake you..."

Chánjuān:" It's okay. I am used to it. I wanna make sure you are fine, once you see (Y/N). Since she is the Empress.

Po:" No... I will not be fine... I really like her."

Chánjuān:"*glare him and punch him* OH YOU LIKE HER?! AFTER THE SHIT YOU DID TO HER! BECAUSE OF YOU!! SHE!!"

I breathe in and out and try to control the anger inside of me. I saw Crane hold my hand and look at me.

Crane:" We're going to save her. Don't stress yourself."

Chánjuān:" I know. But I am furious about him!"

I point to him and try to control the need to punch him again. We saw Gongmen City. We were ready to save her.

3 person P.O.V

You were reading and listening to music that your maids were playing. When you hear a child. You raise your eyebrows and you notice one of the maids getting scared. You order them to stop and open the doors. You notice a child playing with swords. You giggle, the maid runs to the child and gives her a sermon.

You:" It's your child?"

Maid 2:" Yes, my Empress. I am sorry"

You:" What your name, my child."

Bingqing:" My name is Bingqing! Majesty!"

The maid got pale the way the child was speaking, she got scared something bad would come to her.

You smile and hold her, in your embrace.

You:" Do you like singing?"

Bingqing:" Yes! Especially with the legend of Chang'e!"

You:" Oh, do you?"

Bingqing:" I love to hear about the moon goddess! Tell me, your majesty!"

Without your notice, Shen was watching you. How you hold the child and go to the near window and sing a song about the mystic Chang'e.

You:" Long ago, an ancient story

Beautiful and kind Chang'e

And a handsome man named Houyi

We're in love."

Bingqing:" True love?! Majesty?!"

You." True love

But she took a magic potion

Giving immortality

Then she floated leaving her true love

And she waits for him on the moon above."

You stop singing and smile for a moment and look at the child, who was looking at the moon.

You:"And that's where she waits now, on the moon

With only a jade rabbit to keep her company."

Bingqing:" Why? Majesty? Why doesn't she have Houyi with her?"

You:" Because Houyi died here on Earth."

Bingqing:"And when she cries her tears turn into stardust!"

You giggle at the child's enthusiasm and smile. You continue to sing and try to calm the child.

You:"Longing, hoping for her one truе love

Now she waits for him on the moon abovе"

You look at the moon, hoping for someone to rescue you. You saw the maid grab the child and take her to the room.

You smile at the moment, you hear a voice. You look up and see Emperor Shen. You tried to smile at him but he smirked more and hugged you from behind.

Emperor Shen:" I can't wait when us to become parents. I hope you are like this to our child."

Your eyes wide and gulp. You laugh a little but you know what you need to do. You hug him too and put your head on his shoulder and close your eyes.

You wake up in the middle of the night. You notice it was that night that Shen was trying to make an heir. You get up and grab your furry coat. You walk to the doors that lead to the balcony. You open them and walk to the balcony and feel the breeze.

You began to think if indeed you had an heir of Lord Shen. What you would do. You look at the moon for answers. You think about it and you smile. You thought it wasn't the baby faul have the father like Shen

You smile more and try to find hope in your heart. You look at the moon and you know your answer, you open careful doors and run to the kitchen and cook something for Chang'e as a thank you. You pray to her and smile.

Then days became weeks and then months, you were always there for Shen. Shen was always happy and held your hand and gave you the attention and care you need.

One night you were reading, you heard someone, you saw it was Shen. He smiled more.

Emperor Shen:" I have a surprise for you."

You:" For me?"

He smiled and held your hand and went to the balcony, you saw many floating lanterns. Your eyes wide, tears came as you remember your home.

Emperor Shen:" I know you miss home. That's why... I did this, to make you smile. My Empress"

You look at him, you notice he continues to hold your hand and put you close to him. You smile seeing the lanterns floating away, it was so beautiful and warm. You giggle.

Emperor Shen:" I make you smile. I am glad about that. I hope to make you smile every time."

You were feeling dizzy and you passed out. Moments later you woke up and saw Shen was indeed worried and you saw the Doctor. He was touching the silk ribbon that was connected to your pulse because he wasn't allowed to touch the empress of Gongmen City. The doctor was in deep concentration. You were breathing heavily and trying to remain calm. But the doctor smiled and turned to Shen.

Imperial doctor:"She is pregnant! Congratulations!"

Emperor Shen:" Are you sure?!"

Imperial Doctor:" I sense shimai! The happy pulse! She is pregnant, your majesty! Your dragon seed germinated inside her! Congratulations! "

Emperor Shen:" How many months?"

Imperial:" Two months, my emperor. You should be careful. The Empress must eat healthy and balanced food, so the baby inside her will be strong and healthy."

Emperor Shen:" Indeed. Thank you."

Your eyes wide in shock, Shen succeeds in getting you pregnant. You saw his eyes shine more, he held your hand and kissed your forehead.

Emperor Shen:" My empress. My love, you have my child inside your womb! How happy I am!"

You smile at him and hold his hand. You were scared, but at the same time you were happy, you would teach this child to be a good child and have good qualities.

The next day you were wearing a black and golden hanfu, with the hairpins of gold, you were walking towards a hallway.

(this one, i hope you guys like it!)

When you saw him practice and saw the old Soothsayer, you saw they were having an argument. You saw the cannon near the Emperor's throne.

Emperor Shen:" Now, you old woman, why don't you tell me my-"

Old Soothsayer:"Fortune?"

Emperor Shen:"F-future. I was going to say the future. Look into your bowl, and tell me what glory awaits."

You watch the Old Soothsayer, you watch her see the bowl and look at Shen.

Old Soothsayer:" If you continue on your current path..."

You watch her eyes roll upwards. Shen slowly walks down the small steps in the middle of the room, intrigued.

Old Soothsayer:" you will find yourself... at the bottom of the stairs."

Emperor Shen stops at the bottom of the steps. He exclaims in annoyance before approaching the Soothsayer, who again looks into her bowl.

You giggle a little at her sassiness. Shen heard you and chuckled. He held your hand and brought you to the throne, so you could sit while he was trying not to lose patience for the Old Soothsayer.

You saw Old Soothsayer, ripping one part of Emperor Shen Silver and white hanfu and his little part of his white hair. He was annoyed and angry. But you saw her telling his future.

Old Soothsayer:" The most important time is now. But if you really want to see the future......Is defeated by a warrior of black and white. Nothing has changed."

Shen was angry and broke the bowl and laughed insanity, you were worried about it. You saw one of the soldiers running and reported some warrior coming.

Emperor Shen:" Bring that warrior to me! GO!"

You knew what they were talking about, you looked at Shen, who was in anger and furious. You got up and tried to calm him down.

You:" My emperor, you need to calm down. Your bad energy can be bad for our baby..."

Emperor Shen looked at you and noticed his bad energy indeed could influence the well being of his heir. He rubbed your belly and kissed your forehead.

Emperor Shen:" I am sorry... Why don't you try new tea I brought for you "

He called the maids and brought you new tea and serving you health snacks. You sigh and hear a lot of commotion, you go to the balcony and see 6 people, you saw it was Po, and Chánjuān, Tigress, Crane, Monkey, Viper, Mantis.

Your eyes widened more and you felt your body tremble. You look behind you and see Shen grin more and get ready.

Shen:" Greetings, warrior! At last, we met! Oh, no no no no no... We met at last! Yes! That's it! Greetings, warrior! We meet at la-"

You saw the Soothsayer behind him, she was smiling at him, knowing something you didn't know.

Soothsayer:" You are afraid for a reason."

You got shocked, you never dreamed Shen was scared of something, you got worried about the people who were coming to you, you were afraid of their reaction.

Shen:"I'm not afraid. He's coming to me in chains! If anyone should be afraid, it's..."

Soothsayer:"You"

She grinned more at him, you got so confused by her sentence, she knew Shen better than yourself. Shen glared at her and took the robes out her way and walked towards you and held you close.

Shen:" Don't you even think about it."

You hear something, and see him looking at you and give you the signal to move away, you nod and get up and walk away, you see two bodyguards guarding you like you are a treasure for Shen, which you were.

You saw them coming, you saw Po being carried by one the strongest Shen men, you facepalm at this, you heard the two guards laughing. You glare at them and they stop laughing. But soon you knew something would happen.

Po:" I threw up a little on the third floor, someone might want to clean that up. Is there some sort of evil janitor or somethin'?"

You facepalm again, then you heard Shen calling you, you gulp more and see the bodyguards step aside. You heard your best friend calling your name, you looked at her, and tears came down.

You:" I am sorry....I am so sorry...."

Chánjuān looked disbelieving, but she smiled at you and tried to get near you, to which one guard punched her. You run towards her and yell at the guard.

You:" DON'T YOU DAMN LAY YOUR FILTHY HANDS ON HER!"

You saw Shen looking at you, and looked at the guard and nodded, he obeyed. You hug her, you smile nonstop.

Chánjuān:" I know why you did it, silly. I am not mad at you."

You:" Thank you. How is my family, are they alright?"

Chánjuān got silent, you knew something was up, you were getting nervous. Shen notices that too, grabs your hand and moves you towards him and kisses you.

Emperor Shen:" Don't worry, I will take care of it. Guards! Take her out here!"

You nod and obey Shen orders. You saw Po looking at you, heartbroken, you looked aside and closed your eyes and put your hand on your belly. After walking for some time you hear an explosion, you turn and your eyes wide. The guards quickly took you to where Shen was.

You were more worried about your friends, Po, Chánjuān! You began to cry. Once you arrived, you saw Shen walking around worried about you. He sees you, he grabs you and kisses you, he hugs you and touches your belly. Worried about the baby you two were about to have.

Emperor Shen:" Call the doctor! I want to know if the baby is okay!"

His men began to run towards the nearest streets to look for a doctor. Once they found it, the doctor began to check up on you. He carefully put the silk ribbon around your wrist and carefully listened, smiled and looked at Shen.

Doctor:" The baby is fine, my Emperor. Remember the baby must have a relaxed environment."

Emperor Shen:" I understand, thank you."

Shen gave him some coins and hushed him away. Now you two were alone. Shen was worried, but you slowly reached him and kissed his temper. He held your hand and kissed it. You both stay quiet, those moments it seems you both share something. You look at the window and wonder, if your friends were fine, did they survive. You had lost hope. You knew your life was this, not return home.
