CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

315 Attacks

The Crown Prince Palace’s soldiers were not ordinary people, with their strength they could paralyze two enemies at once, it was very easy for them, these people were clearly just looking for trouble.

“Oh Lord Shin, who are they? Why did they suddenly attack us?” asked Lan’er who had already moved away from the centre of the battle, the attackers were definitely coming for BaiYing or ChenMing. In a dangerous situation like this, it was certain that ShinYa put the weakest person first, and he couldn’t do anything to help ChenMing in the middle of a battle.

“Heh I don’t know Concubine Fu, but, this is very strange, they seem to have planned it”

BaiYing still holds ChenMing’s hand tightly, did he need to expend his strength? For a moment the young man looked at his palm, if he did, not only the attacker would be seriously injured, but possibly the palace guards and ChenMing as well, he’s afraid he might lose control of it.

“Brother what should we do?”

“Stay close and alert Ying, if it’s necessary at a critical time just use your power, these people seem to have been targeting us with quite a lot of preparation”

But the attackers were not formidable palace warriors, they would be taken down in the near future. As BaiYing looked at his surroundings, his eyes shone slightly as if he could sense danger approaching from the direction of the two-story building in front of them.

“Brother” BaiYing was just about to grab ChenMing’s hand who was busy looking the other way when he heard the sound of someone falling,

Brukk!

.....

The wind brought coloured powder towards them, which instantly made the palace soldiers fall one by one, it was poisonous powder.

“Older brother!” BaiYing exclaimed holding ChenMing’s hand tightly as if only immobilizing the palace soldiers and not the invulnerable attackers, ChenMing immediately covered his nose.

“Idiot, come on Ying we have to go.”

ChenMing was about to grab BaiYing’s hand and run away, but something stopped him in his moves.



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

“Sheets!” the wind is quite loud.

BaiYing stood where he was with his eyes wide open, something had stuck to ChenMing’s left shoulder.

“Brother” a dart stabbed shallowly at ChenMing’s shoulder, which instantly made the young prince limp and fell into BaiYing’s hands.
“No Brother!” BaiYing was just about to turn his head to see where the attack came from when the next arrow hit his shoulder.

BaiYing was weak, instantly the drugs in the arrowhead made him sleepy, it didn’t take long for the young man to fall limp, just as someone had supported his body from hitting the ground.

“Brukk!”

....

A very calm atmosphere at the Eagle Pavilion.

Like any other day, the Crown Prince is always surrounded by a lot of work piled up in his study, as if everything is always there, whether it’s a new report or a routine monthly report, he didn’t expect, being the Emperor’s advisor to taking up so much of his time. That rotten Emperor, LuoXiang cursed in heart, as a Crown Prince, he should have the special right to determine his own work, while everyone thinks being a Crown Prince is fun.

“Bei, are there any developments in the official Kui’s murder case?”

BeiYau who was standing behind the Crown Prince approached and lowered his head before reporting.

“Report Your Majesty, until now Young Master Xu, I mean, officer Xu has not received any new clues regarding the case, Official Gu has formed a special team for this case, but they say traces of the attacker’s Officials Kui family seem to disappeared, even so, Officer Xu said they found new evidence on the bodies of the attackers, more like there were tattoo marks on their wrists, tattoos that had been forcibly removed with hot coals.”

Hearing that LuoXiang stopped his hands, raise his head to look at BeiYau.

“A tattoo on the wrist? What, it’s like what we think Bei? In that case, what did JuYu mean by leaving the bodies of their subordinates at the location if this was to be discovered by the palace? Did they do it on purpose? So that we know who they really are?”

“According to Master Gu, the last traces that can be found to the origin of the attackers are from KuMu City, a small town at the foot of the mountain to the west of the SuiLian city border.”

Crown Prince stroked his chin.

“Hem, what we guessed was right, that they were from SuiLian and its surroundings, just like what YingYing said”

“Your Majesty, this, is there any possibility of being related to the Viceroy? What, are they coming to harm His Highness the Young King here?” asked Bei Yau.

LuoXiang also thought like that, he looked far ahead.

“Heh, that’s what I’m worried about, and at a time like this he insists on getting out the palace, this is indeed very worrying”

“Relax Your Majesty, the young soldiers that following the Viceroy at this time are the best, they can defeat several other soldiers at once, and also, with Viceroy’s ability now, no one can harm him, even Elder Yi is not his match”

“Still Bei, that kid is inexperienced at all, he is very hesitant and being overly cautious, his inner strength was so great, he could injure everyone including innocent people around him, of course, he wouldn’t use it unless he had to, and, he was still a child, in his innocent mind, he still didn’t feel ready to accept the fact that he had such a great power in his body, such an innocent and stupid child.”

Crown Prince took a deep breath, he remembered what happened this morning, when he had just come out of the West Dragon pavilion heading to his study, ChenMing was already standing not far in front of the large door of the Pavilion, deliberately waiting for him.

From what the young Prince had said, LuoXiang finally met the Queen at her residence.

“Mother, You certainly know what the punishment is for the people who gossip about the royal family? The lightest, one hundred of whips, slash the tongue, exiled far from the palace, do Mother realize what you have done?”

The Queen who didn’t expect the Crown Prince to meet her so early in her pavilion stuttered, the woman widen her eyes, she didn’t expect all this matter to be so big, although, she should have guessed it before doing it

“Eh, hehe, Xiang’er, this mother is senile, so does the old wives of the officials, we are not gossiping, it’s just small talk between women, who said we are?”

LuoXiang put his hands behind his waist, walked towards the Queen’s beautiful parrot cage not far from the window, the little bright yellow bird was jumping up, left and right while singing in a loud voice.

“Xiang’er is just saying, Mother, it’s just, Mother is an honourable Queen, don’t you feel that you have lower down your level to associate with other people and talk nonsense? People may hear your words and think that the Queen is a careless and bad-mouthed woman, that’s not good for reputation, isn’t it?.”

The Queen thought that what the Crown Prince said was true, what had she done?

“Oh, Xiang’er is right, what should Mother do now? What, anyone else heard of it? Did Ying’er hear it? Oh, the child will misunderstand, oh what should Mother do now? Poor child, I must have hurt his feelings.”

LuoXiang walked over to the Queen who was sitting in her chair, Prince Crown slowly sat beside the Queen’s chair and grabbed his teacup.

“Xiang’er could have sent guards to arrest the two women who were gossiping with Mother about the Crown Prince and his concubine, but, YingYing would definitely not like it, that kid would be even more distressed to know that someone else was being punished because of him, even though, that’s how it should be, according to the rules” LuoXiang casually lifted his teacup, blowing out the hot smoke for a while before taking a small sip.

“Xiang’er, really can’t stand to punish them with at least a hundred lashes for being so presumptuous, heh my hand so itching”

Crown Prince’s last words made the Queen open her eyes wide in surprise.

“Eh hehe, Xing’er, do You need to do that? They’re just old people, they’re not young anymore, don’t know how much they can have, ten lashes let alone a hundred, that’s too much, hehe, um, what if just let Mother whos punished them, after all, your mother also indirectly joined in the talks with them, you will at least, let Mother save my face, right?”. said the Queen in an unenthusiastic voice.

LuoXiang looked at the Queen, he slowly stood up from his seat, clasped his hands behind his waist and walked towards the door.

“Well, that, depends on how YingYing’s mood is, Mother knows, Xiang’er can’t manage this matter, YingYing is the Viceroy of WahYe, with his status, he could just back to his palace and build his country and become very strong, to Xiang’er, YingYing is a love of my life, but to YueYang, YingYing is an asset that can’t be taken for granted, what, Mother doesn’t think that YingYing is as important as Xiang’er to YueYang? How could Mother be so careless as to let those dirty mouths even say his name in vain? Mother, too careless.”

The Queen bit her lip, she looked worried and broke out in cold sweat.

“What, Xiang’er mean, that, little Ying, could get angry and leave YueYang? That is what it means? Ouch, then what should I do? Mother is so careless, ouch, this could be a big problem”
