CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

217 Headed Back

LuoXiang blocked the man’s gaze from BaiYing, still looking at the stranger with high brows.

“Tell me, what should I do in return? I, don’t like being in debt to others.”

The young man smirked at the somewhat arrogant remark of the young man in front of him, LuoXiang who was standing tall with his hands behind his waist.

“Eh, you mean for paying me back? Em, I haven’t thought about it yet, how if I’ll ask about this later?”

LuoXiang turned his head, looking at the young man from head to toe, that person was very confident that they would meet again in the future, but he didn’t want to bother to think about it, he waved his hand to Bei, while walking away from the man, back to his carriage.

“Bei, give him all the gold you have.”

BeiYau lowered his head nodding.

“Yes, Your Majesty”

BeiYau took out a money bag from under his clothes and handed it with both hands in front of the young man, the young man was still dumbfounded by what BeiYau was doing, but the young guard didn’t have much time, he took the young man’s hand and placed the fairly heavy money bag into his palm, and after that, he clenched his fist in salute before leaving,

.....

“Excuse me, Young Master”

LuoXiang approached BaiYing who was still standing wobbly beside the carriage, ShinYa was just about to help BaiYing onto the carriage, when LuoXiang’s hands took his place and grabbed BaiYing’s shoulders, lowering his body and lifted BaiYing’s legs, carrying him.

“Eh Y-Your Majesty”

Without saying much, LuoXiang carried BaiYing into the carriage.

“We continue our journey Bei”

BeiYau and the others bowed their heads nodding.

“Yes Your Majesty”

The group finally moved forward, leaving the area of ??the road that was already in disarray, before moving away some of BeiYau’s men still had time to give money bags to the merchants whose booths were destroyed by being hit by the wrecked carriage, while the horse coachman and a passenger who were inside had to accept the fact that their carriage was blown to pieces, and their horses were lost somewhere, not to mention the security guards who immediately approached them and arrested them for causing such a mess.

“You guys! How can you make a fuss this early in the morning! Hurry stand up!” cried a city security guard, his friend who had run over with him still watching the carriage drift away.

“Who was that?”

The man in the ChangSan city security uniform shook his head.

“Don’t know, maybe the young masters from SanPo, they are heading to that way, but according to the citizens these people are the troublemakers, let’s get up quickly!”

While the handsome young man in white, who was now waving his fan, still stood in his last position weighing the money bag in his hand, he smirked at Crown Prince’s entourage which moving fast.

“Hmm, Ying Ying huh?”



???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

...

While in the carriage.

LuoXiang took off BaiYing’s shoes which occasionally groaned from the bruises on his feet.

“Akh be careful, Your Majesty, it so hurt”

LuoXiang really refrain from pinching the boy’s cheeks until he’s satisfied, this stupid who was always playing as a hero and kept making trouble for himself.

“Who told you to be a hero, this is just a minor injury, it’s only a matter of hours for you to heal right?”

BaiYing massaged his feet, biting his lip.

“Still, it hurts so much, Your Highness, it’s throbbing”

Can’t be helped, LuoXiang finally pinched BaiYing’s cheek exasperatedly.

“Ich this brat”

“Servant is in pain, Your Majesty, why are you still pinching me?”

“This is because of you being so stupid, that’s why! This kid is always looking for trouble.”

Their voices were heard out of the carriage, ShinYa who was riding right beside the carriage shook his head.

“Heh, these two, can’t they be gentler with each other?”

BeiYau stifled a laugh, he didn’t dare to laugh but the Crown Prince he knew then and now was indeed very different, never before had he heard his Crown Prince shout out of anger, he a very calm and cool person, always used his head coldly, but now, he was always on fire, often angry and emotional because of his adorable little concubine.

“Your Majesty, I’m in hurt, don’t pinch my cheek again!”

“Just let it swollen”

“Your Majesty!”

...

Gong!!

The sound of the gong resounded loudly.

The howling wind could be heard clearly, waving YueYang’s majestic flag fluttering very valiantly. The large courtyard of the imperial palace was already filled with YueYang troops in full formation, gold-plated and the flags on the tips of their spears lined up neatly with very serious faces.

By the late afternoon, the Crown Prince’s entourage arrived at the Dragon field, after many days, the group finally entered the palace gates and was welcomed by the troops in full formation.

The flag fluttered on the top of the carriage, BeiYau and his men were already attire with their full armor complete with the flag which fluttered majestically in the wind.

LuoXiang looked very dashing sitting on his big white horse, in the Crown Prince’s armor just as when he went to save BaiYing back then, and now, all of them returned to the palace in the whole piece.

Approaching the front of the Dragon Hall, the group stopped, where the Emperor and Queen, Princess and Prince, along with high officials were already waiting for the return of the Crown Prince and his concubine.

“His Highness the Crown Prince arrived!” cried the soldier loudly.

LuoXiang got off his horse, pulled back the curtain of the carriage, and stretched out his hand to help BaiYing out, the figure of BaiYing, who’s now wearing his WahYe’s state clothes, slowly came out while holding onto the Crown Prince.

Instantly all eyes, including the Emperor and LuoYan, wide opened with the splendor and beauty of the young man who now returned to the palace as a Viceroy of WahYe, as well as, the concubine of the Crown Prince.

Beautiful clothes, dominated by white, with gold-red sparkling embroidery all over the clothes from top to bottom, the motif of a kilin-headed dragon flying among the clouds, very beautiful, with silver and gold thread colors that sparkle by the sun which slowly fading, the golden crown on BaiYing’s hair bun, and golden ribbons that dangled along with his long hair down to his waist, the graceful movement, along with the wave of clothes whose were too long that it wipes against the ground, looking quite heavy with all the high-quality materials and accessories attached to the clothes, which makes a sound when it moves.

LuoXiang took BaiYing’s hand, both of them lower their knees in front of the Emperor and Empress.

“Long live, Your Majesty the Emperor, Her Majesty the Queen”

They both exclaimed in unison.

The Emperor looked at BaiYing’s sweet face while stroking his beard, smiling so wide he couldn’t stop seeing that shining face until he almost salivated subconsciously, the Queen nudged his stomach to wake him up.

“Eh Your Majesty”

The Emperor snapped, he immediately stretched out his hand to allow the Crown Prince and his little concubine to stand up, he almost moved closer to BaiYing if it wasn’t for Luo Yan who preceded him.

“Crown Prince, Consort Hua, you came back safely, it’s such a relief”

LuoYan helped the Crown Prince to his feet even though his intention was to just touch BaiYing’s hand, LuoXiang had already glanced at him sharply, he grabbed BaiYing’s hand before his brother.

“Brother, thank you for your concern, thank goodness everything went well.”

Luo Yan didn’t take his eyes off BaiYing, that sweet face, with a beautiful smile that really hard for Luo Yan to take it out of his head, and now have to look at it again, he cants miss the opportunity to see him again.

“Em Crown Prince, while you are very busy talking to Emperor, why not let this sweetie with me? I’ll make sure to escort him to your palace safely”

LuoXiang restrained himself, his older brother no change at all even after a long time no sees, not to mention his father’s gaze, why did everyone look at his YingYing as if he was a very delicious cake? What makes everyone so obsessed with him?

“Eh that, I don’t dare to let bother to take care of this, I’m also very tired, so, maybe I’ll go straight back to the palace and, talk to father by tomorrow, what do you think, father?”

The emperor stuttered, he was still busy looking at BaiYing’s when his son asked him.

“Eh that..”

“Thank you father, for your understanding and generosity”

The emperor stuttered, he haven’t said anything yet!

“Heh, Xiang’er better rest first, Father can wait until tomorrow, hehe”

.......

LuoXiang and entourage continued their way towards the Crown Prince’s palace, the Empress approached the Emperor and whispered.

“Em Your Majesty, Your Majesty won’t say anything? This ain’t what Your Majesty shouted before” whispered the Queen.

The emperor put on a serious face, stroked his chin while glancing at his son who took Concubine Hua back to his palace with his loyal guards.

“Hemm”
