CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

633 Who Is That?

In a moment Bai Ying and the Crown Prince’s hearts skipped a beat. Bai Ying’s eyes briefly flashed red. This was the feeling he experienced when he felt someone or something of immense power appear nearby. And, that enormous power, could it be the man with the friendly smiles in front of them now?

“Servant is Li Hua, pay respects to Your Majesty the King and Crown Prince, may Your Majesty always be healthy and happy.”

Even though that man, looked very friendly and unpretentious, handsome and scholarly face, was it possible, he was so great that he had to make Bai Ying and The Crown Prince felt an extremely high energy pulse from him? And this was not ordinary human energy, no matter how great they were, this, was just like what Bai Ying felt when he met Dragon Er Wang, Xiao Hong and the others. But, who is he?

Luo Xiang stood in front of Bai Ying and watched the man’s face carefully, holding Bai Ying’s hand tightly.

“Oh, Prince Li Hua, your appearance is very different from King Bi Lou, what is your relationship with him?” asked Luo Xiang.

Prince Li Hua, the man smiled.

“Hehe, yes, Your Majesty, many people say that too. I am the King’s cousin from Mother’s family, my family is descended from Son Wa from the east side where most of the citizens look like the common citizen of Wah Ye. It’s just because of mixed marriages that our appearance is different from the Son Wa tribe and also the Wah Ye in general.”

The Crown Prince looked at the man from head to toe. Whether he was acting indifferent to the vibrations of his power or indeed he was not aware of it, one thing was for sure, he looks very suspicious.

The Crown Prince glanced at Shin Ya who was standing not far beside him. Shin Ya himself could see the white aura from the man standing in front of the Crown Prince and Viceroy. Whatever it was, after that he didn’t see anything else strange, then what exactly did he see earlier?

.....

.....

Dusk.

Bei Yau withdrew after presenting the scroll of the official letter from the Emperor to the Crown Prince. The lounge room within the main palace building on the inside of the Eagle hall. Bei Yau appears with a letter from the palace for the Crown Prince. Inside the room were also seated, Chen Ming and Xiao Hong.

Luo Xiang rolled up the letter after reading it and handed it to Bei Yau who was standing with his head down in front of him. Bai Ying’s eyes were still wide open since earlier waiting for what was in the letter that the Emperor had suddenly sent to the Crown Prince, very curious as to what was in it,

“Your Majesty, did His Majesty the Emperor ordered us to return to the palace?” he asked.

“That rotten Emperor really can’t let us have a vacation in peace.”

Bai Ying held the Crown Prince’s arm, urging him to speak.
“So, is it true that he told us to return, Your Majesty? However, Ying er still has a lot of things to do here, can Your Highness go home by yourself?” he asked.

Hearing Bai Ying’s words make the Crown Prince turn to look at the young man with sharp eyes.

“No way, how can that be, if I go home it means that Ying Ying must also come home with me, I will not let us be separated again, no matter what happens” Crown Prince exclaimed holding Bai Ying’s hand tightly.

Bai Ying pursed his mouth. He was about to speak when Chen Ming’s voice preceded him.

“Well after all Xiao Ying also has obligations here, don’t forget that he is the Viceroy of Xin Hua, of course, he can’t be in Yue Yang Palace all the time.”

Luo Xiang leaned back with a calm face on his chair, lifted his teacup and continued to enjoy it. slowly.

Bai Ying looked at his brother, while he looked troubled by Chen Ming’s words which were the reality he had been trying to avoid. How can two leaders from two far-flung countries coexist in the same place? Whereas both he and the Crown Prince had obligations they couldn’t ignore.

The Crown Prince noticed Bai Ying’s confusion. However, there was no need to discuss matters like this just yet. It didn’t really matter because they would have found a way of it.

....

Luo Xiang had finished cleaning himself and headed towards the bed where Bai Ying was already sitting leaning on the bed.

He came closer and pushed aside the blanket to sit beside Bai Ying. The Crown Prince touched Bai Ying’s hand which looked dreamy with his foresight far away.

“Hey, what are you thinking? You said you were very sleepy earlier, why are you still sitting daydreaming like this?” he asked.

Bai Ying turned his head, looking at the Crown Prince’s rather long expressionless expression.

“Your Highness, what should Ying er do? I, really want to go with Your Highness anywhere in this world, even to a place where no one has ever visited, but, Your Highness knows that I have obligations in this palace, like Your Highness with yours”

Luo Xiang pulled his lips, smiling realizing what made the young man look lethargic and didn’t talk much since earlier when they were at the lounge. He grabbed Bai Ying’s hand, intertwined their fingers together, lifted it up and kissed it.

“So, that’s what made my always smiling Ying Ying put on such a lacklustre face from earlier? Just because of that small problem?” he asked.



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

Bai Ying was about to withdraw his hand after hearing the Crown Prince’s words, but Luo Xiang did not let him go.

“Your Highness, what do you mean by the small problem? That is no small problem, we must think about that no matter what. Ying er is also not willing to stay far from Your Highness, but, servant, have obligations here, then, so what should we do? Ying er can’t be in two places at once right?”

Luo Xiang raised his other hand to caress Bai Ying’s messy hair beside his cheek, smiling serenely like he usually did. The look in his eyes was very calm, able to make even Bai Ying’s troubled feelings slowly fade away.

“Your Highness”

“Then, does that mean my Ying Ying will not want to go back with me to Yue Yang Palace? What does it mean, my Ying Ying thinks that he will still be here as a King and be far away from me?” Luo Xiang’s question again irritated Bai Ying.

“Your Highness, is that what Your Highness thinks of Ying er? Does Your Majesty not trust me at all?” he asked in an irritated tone.

Luo Xiang finally chuckled, clapped Bai Ying’s hand and shifted the young man into a tight hug.

“Hey, this stupid brat, okay, Brother won’t tease you anymore, I just asked what my Ying Ying really wants, even though I already knows the answer. Em, we will be able to handle it, trust me, everything will be fine. At now, I also can’t think of a way out of this problem, but I’m sure that we will find it soon with time. Until then, let’s just live it, slowly okay? We still have plenty of time to think, one thing is clear, I will never let go of my Ying Ying’s hand, not again.”

Bai Ying hugged the Crown Prince tightly. He took a deep breath trying to get rid of the pressure in his chest.

“Your Highness, Ying er will definitely start by changing the country’s regulations, Ying er is the King, so Ying er’s words are the orders and rules that everyone must obey, that’s one of the privileges of being a King right?” Bai Ying asked.

Luo Xiang chuckled. He nodded.

“Yeah, that’s right, the King’s word is an order, my Ying Ying is a great King, whoever dares to refuse, will also face the Crown Prince of Yue Yang.” Bai Ying smiled, lifting his head to look at the Crown Prince very closely.

Luo Xiang lowered his head and kissed Bai Ying’s lips.

“Is my Ying Ying feeling better now? My Ying Ying’s smile is the most beautiful thing in this world, don’t let that smile leave you, trust me that we will be able to solve any problem together.” Bai Ying nodded, and he hugged the Crown Prince even tighter.

“Yes Your Majesty, I trust in you”

......

Morning sun in the warm Pai Hua valley.

On another sunny day, the excited voices of the soldiers training in the middle of the field could be heard from far away. General Fa Lu standing at the very front watching his men give orders and directions.

From the side of the field, several officials walk under the beautiful sun observing the construction of the official and soldier complex which has not yet been completed.

Feng Han walks with several young palace internal affairs officials, and the young senior officials taking notes behind them.

“According to old advisor Pai, all of these sections will be made into a training complex, there will be a horse field, archery field and others. This is an order from the Viceroy who wants some parts to resemble Yue Yang’s Great Palace,” said Feng Han.
