CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

Chapter 31: Little Scar

As the man let his guard down, BeiYau rush to hit from behind,

“Whossh!”

His long sword almost hit the man’s hand but the man quickly dodged while carrying BaiYing in his hand, BeiYau keeps on to attack but that person used BaiYing’s as a shield, and left no choice for BeiYau but to draw his sword back.

“No!”

LuoXiang joined in the attack, but the figure dashed towards the tree while carrying BaiYing’s body to disappear into the dark.

“YingYing!”

LuoXiang thought quickly, without delay he dashed towards the tree towards the valley and chased that person, BeiYau followed.

.....

“Your Honour!”

The chase ensued, its pitch dark, but Luo Xiang’s careful eyes were trained in any situation, he would not lose that figure, not with BaiYing at his hand.

“God damn it!”

His drift lightly overtook the figure and attacked from the front, BeiYau and his men followed from behind and attacks simultaneously, the man had a little trouble dodging LuoXiang’s attack but he turned his body and use BaiYing as his shield, LuoXiang can’t be fooled for a second time, as the man turned around with BaiYing, LuoXiang accelerate the pace and grabs BaiYing’s body with his two hands, that’s when BeiYau have a chance to ambush the figure and knocked him hard to the tree trunk.

“Ueukk!”

Blood spurted out when BeiYau’s long sword stabbed the man’s right chest through the tree trunk, he vomited blood, it is seen from his wet black mask that the man was already deeply injured, but BeiYau did not stop, the figure pulled the sword out of his chest and he kicked his feet stepped on the tree trunk and dashed away.

LuoXiang landed on the ground with BaiYing and shouted.

“Bei caught him alive! I want to know who is the mastermind behind him!.” LuoXiang exclaimed. BeiYau who’s now perched on top of the tree trunk nodded. He and his trained men quickly pursued the figure who’s already covered in wounds, where could that person run with severe injuries like that?

“Chase him!” Exclaimed BeiYau.
The few chosen guards stay to protect the Crown Prince.

LuoXiang lowered his body to check on BaiYing, stroked his cold cheeks, his pale face with his eyes closed tightly.

“YingYing”

BaiYing didn’t move, LuoXiang hugged him and carried him back towards the palace quickly.

... ...

“Byusssh”

Splashing water, warm and scented with flowers filled the bathtub prepared for concubine Hua that morning, regardless of what happened last night BaiYing woke up without remembering many things that happened, he tried not to remember them, better enjoying the bath he loved so much every morning.

Outside the chamber, Yan and Bi lowered their knees to see who’d entered the door.

“Greetings Your Majesty”

The Crown Prince raised his finger to stop the maids who greeted him. Don’t let BaiYing, who’s enjoying his bath, know about his coming.

“Your Majesty, concubine Hua has just taken a bath,” said Yan.

LuoXiang tugged at the edges of his lips, without hesitation he moved toward the door in front of him with his two hands behind his waist.

The maids could only glance at each other, His Majesty the Crown Prince certainly is more than anyone who can enter the room while concubine Hua is taking a bath.

BaiYing blew the abundant foam in his hand, the scent of soap and the therapeutic aroma of dried flowers and herbal leaves which good for the skin and body calmed him, it really pleasant feeling, the bath he loves the most because it is when he can be alone and enjoy the most precious time, but, someone opened the door, BaiYing eyes wide opened, he told his servants no one could enter while he was taking a bath, then who had dared to disobey his orders?

A figure behind the partition appeared, piece by piece of clothes being removed and hanging beside his, then that person appeared without wearing his top, he was LuoXiang, who approached by only wearing his wide trousers.

“Y-Your Majesty”

BaiYing still stuttering when the Crown Prince entered a large bath that’s big enough for the two of them, he smiled at BaiYing’s surprised face that did not expect him to appear there.

“Your Majesty, I am taking a bath now.”

“Yes, I can see that, so?”

BaiYing held his breath, just do whatever he wants then.

LuoXiang pulled his lips and smile, he wet his chest and neck with water that only soaked up to below his chest, LuoXiang scooped up water with his two wide palms and wet BaiYing’s shoulders and neck.

“Come here, I’ll rub your back, no one has done it for you right?”

BaiYing complied, when LuoXiang’s two hands turned his back and faced him, he grabbed the sponge and used it to rub BaiYing’s innocent back, BaiYing admitted, it felt quite comfortable, he longed for this.

LuoXiang rubbed BaiYing’s smooth back with a beaming face.

“Did you sleep well last night? I had to go to work this morning, so couldn’t accompany you until you wake up”

BaiYing nodded.

“Emm, It’s good, I didn’t even feel anything last night because I was too tired.”

LuoXiang rubbed BaiYing’s shoulder, up to his neck where the wound from the sharp sword last night still bled, BaiYing slightly moaned when the wound was hit by the soapy water.

“Akh”



Best

“Sorry, does it still hurt?” LuoXiang leaned his head forward, lowered it around the young man’s neck, and kissed the wound, BaiYing stunned.

“Your Majesty” It was a little ticklish actually.

“I’m sorry I couldn’t protect you, heh, that person, almost took you away from me”

LuoXiang kept rubbing BaiYing’s back below his waist.

“Who are they? Why are they so brave to sneak into the Crown Prince’s palace?”

LuoXiang thought about that too, on how easy that professional assassin to enter the palace and the Plum Pavilion, they haven’t got the main reason from those guys because they all shut their mouths tightly despite being threatened with death or whatever, no one could shake their stance.

LuoXiang stopped his hand at BaiYing’s left-back, the position was probably not far from his heart, a rather long scar, a sword stab scar, LuoXiang touched it, even though it only left a faint and almost gone, but the wound almost took little BaiYing lives.

“YingYing!”
