CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

505 Should I Hold it?

“Your Majesty, is it morning already?”

Luo Xiang smiled.

“Yeah, it is, how are you feeling?” asked Luo Xiang in a soft voice.

Bai Ying frowned, he was trying to remember what happened yesterday, the last thing he remembers was being engrossed in pulling the kite strings and running with the Crown Prince behind him until everything went dark. His head hurt unbearably just trying to remember what happened next, his chest hurt and has a hard time catching on to his breath now.

“Akh”

Luo Xiang lowered Bai Ying’s hand from his chest, and gripped it tightly, looking at the young man’s eyes for a long time.

“Does Ying Ying remember what happened?” Luo Xiang asked.

Bai Ying thought, he saw the old Crown Prince’s face and thought.

“Em, we’re playing kites right, Your Majesty? Then, ran towards the meadow, and fell, after that, er, Ying er forgot.”

.....

The Crown Prince smiled, he stroked Bai Ying’s hair gently.

“Yeah, Ying Ying was too tired, like what I said, if you are still unwell, next time, please listen to big brother.”

Bai Ying pursed his lips, looking at the Crown Prince who looked tired, there were dark circles under his eyes, did he stay up all night for him? His face looked tired and worried. He pats Luo Xiang’s hand, which makes the Crown Prince raise his head and look at him.

“Your Majesty, please forgive Ying er, next time Ying will listen to Your Majesty, Your Majesty don’t be mad at me, okay?”

How can he be mad at Bai Ying? Who now looking at him with his innocent face, with a pair of big round eyes at him. Only seeing his face made his bad feeling better.

He remembered what Princess Wu Lan had said last night after learning about Bai Ying’s condition from Elder Yi.

“Please forgive this old Granny, to tell the truth, Your Majesty now knows what will happen if Your Majesty force Xiao Ying to remember about his love for you, that, it will be very dangerous for him, this means, Your Majesty will let Xiao Ying’s feelings grow on its own. So you may not be able to force his feelings on you, in the end, for Xiao Ying’s sake, Your Majesty may have to back off.”

Luo Xiang clenched his hands behind his waist, what Princess Wu Lan said was true, if he loved the boy, for his sake he would probably back off.

But, it was never in Luo Xiang’s life to back down, let alone for his love for Bai Ying was so great, how could he possibly back down?

“Do you want to wake up? It’s already noon, brother has asked Yan to make your favourite fish porridge.”

Bai Ying nodded, since he woke up the worms in his stomach had been screaming in hunger.

“Of course, Your Majesty, I am very hungry.”

Luo Xiang helped Bai Ying get up and sat back on his bed.

Bai Ying’s eyes widened when he saw Yan who came in carrying a tray with a large bowl that was still emitting hot smoke and placed it on the table, the young servant scooped it into a small bowl which she immediately handed to the Crown Prince with both hands.

“Wow, it smells so good Your Majesty, Ying was so hungry”
Luo Xiang smiled, he stirred the hot porridge and blew out the hot air.

“Yeah, of course, Ying Ying doesn’t wake up all night, of course, you’ll starve, it’s still hot I’ll blow it for you.”

Bai Ying swallowed hard, can’t wait for the Crown Prince to finish. He held the Crown Prince’s hand holding the spoon as if he couldn’t wait to enjoy it. Luo Xiang smiled, one of the things that can make his love cheerful is good food.

“Come on Your Majesty,” said Bai Ying opening his mouth wide.

The Crown Prince couldn’t help but smile, the boy is always cheerful no matter what happened before, whether he really didn’t remember anything or didn’t say anything on purpose.

“Hey, my sweetheart, eat slowly, look at how messy it is.”

Bai Ying couldn’t stop showing his very happy face while enjoying the food he really liked even though it was still a bit hot.

“Um, this is delicious, Your Highness.”

Luo Xiang smiled, looking at the remaining porridge on the edge of Bai Ying’s mouth. He was just about to raise his hand to clean it, but, instead of cleaning it with his hand, the Crown Prince moves forward and kissed Bai Ying’s lips, taking the remaining porridge with his lips.

Bai Ying’s eyes went wide.

“Your Highness”

Luo Xiang couldn’t stop smiling, seeing Bai Ying’s big eyes looking at him shocked.

“Erm, this is indeed really delicious”

“Your Majesty, there’s a lot of it, why should you take it from Ying er’s lips?” Bai Ying protested.

Luo Xiang laughed.

“Hehehe because it tastes so much better on my Ying Ying’s lips”

Bai Ying puffed his mouth out, pushing the Crown Prince’s chest who couldn’t stop teasing him.

“Your Majesty”

Luo Xiang can’t stop smiling, he really enjoys teasing his little cute concubine as always, and he could do that all day without getting bored. While Bai Ying looks at him with an annoyed face.

Before long.

Luo Xiang stood waiting in the downstairs room while Bai Ying got dressed.

He turned around when he heard a knock on the big door, the two maids guarding the door lowered their heads to see who had entered.

“Greeting, Your Majesty” he Bei Yau who immediately lowered his body in front of the Crown Prince.

Luo Xiang waved his hand telling his loyal guard to stand up.

“Raise up, Bei”



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

Bei Yau stood up though still bowed his head.

“Report Your Majesty, all preparations for departure have been completed, if we depart tonight, at a normal pace, are likely to arrive at the palace exactly one day before the state event begins”

Luo Xiang thought.

“Don’t forget to prepare the chariot in the best condition and the most comfortable shape Bei, I don’t want Ying Ying to complain about sitting too long in there, this trip will certainly take quite a while, and we can’t always stop to rest”

Bei Yau lowered his head.

“Yes, Your Majesty”

Luo Xiang raised his head when he saw Bai Ying had finished dressing and came down from his room, at that time the Crown Prince couldn’t say anything. The beautiful scenery in front of him was enough to make his lips go numb.

Bai Ying wore a shimmering outfit, domineering by gleamed red and yellow stones that adorned him, a long beautiful hair that was tied high with a long yellow ribbon as long as his pretty and thick hair. Even though he wasn’t wearing the finest clothes from the palace but he really looked like dazzling gemstones.

Luo Xiang stretched out his hand to greet Bai Ying as he arrived in front of him.

“My Ying Ying, we are just going to walk around the lake this morning, why is my concubine dressed so beautifully? If this is the way it is, which one should I see, the scenery, or my Ying Ying?”

Bai Ying pursed his lips at the Crown Prince’s rambling words.

“Your Highness, please stop teasing Ying er.”

Luo Xiang laughed. He pulled Bai Ying’s hand closer to him.

“Well, what can I do? This concubine of mine really makes me always want to say all kinds of beautiful things about you”

Bai Ying closes his mouth laughing at the Crown Prince’s ridiculous face who looks at him with naughty eyes.

“Your Majesty, stop it”

“Hahahaha come, my love, let’s go for a walk”

Luo Xiang took Bai Ying’s hand and led him to the door.

“Your Majesty, later when we are passing through town, can we stop by at the old man Lo’s shop? Ying want to buy some pendant for Her Majesty the Queen and sisters concubines, Sister Fan er and Sister Lan er will definitely like it, um wait, they seem to prefer face powder, then, let’s just stop by the powder shop, Your Majesty.”

“Yeah, of course, my Ying Ying, whatever you want”

Bai Ying couldn’t stop smiling, although sometimes the Crown Prince was a bit harsh when he spoke, he could be gentle too, he held Luo Xiang’s arm tightly.

“Your Majesty, should we buy anything for His Majesty the Emperor? Ying doesn’t really know what His Majesty likes. Can we buy him a pendant? Or, maybe fragrance? Hmm, but what kind of fragrance does He prefer?”

Luo Xiang can’t stop smiling, hearing Bai Ying keep babbling make his day, he’s never tired of it.

“Whatever you buy for Him, His Majesty The Emperor must like it”

Bai Ying widened his eyes.

“Really? He’s going to like it? Whatever is that?”

Luo Xiang nodded.

Of course, The Emperor already like the kid by only seeing his face, what else does he need?

Luo Xiang stopped, and pulled the boy’s waist stick on him, holding his very delicate hand and kissing it, anyone will so crazy about him. Clear beautiful big brown eyes with long eyelashes, pure sparkling white like porcelain skin, flawless and shining, delicate hands with curly little long fingers, small waist and smell so good, how can the Crown Prince be very lucky to have him? How can he let him go? Not going to happen in this lifetime, or even the next one.
