83 It Was Bad Dream

Soon after that.

At the Orchid pavilion.

“No, Your Majesty is wasn’t me! I’m innocent!” concubine FuLan screamed as she was being led out by two guards after suddenly barged and found the kite string under her bed, the thin rope that caused BaiYing’s horse to fall.

The Crown Prince standing in front of the pavilion courtyard, he and BeiYau just stood watching Concubine Fu being led out along with the evidence, she was still struggling to rebel when she passed in front of the Crown Prince.

“It’s not me, I didn’t mean to do it, Your Majesty has to believe me, Your Majesty.”

Lan’er was crying until her eyes were all red. She couldn’t resist since the evidence had been found in her room, her servants could only cry for her who suddenly became a suspect.

“Then, So can you explain why you brought that string with you there? You’ve been planning all of this from the beginning, haven’t you? And right now YingYing is lying still unconscious and who knows when he will wake up, why did you do that?” LuoXiang’s voice was loud even though it was shaking a bit from his unbearable emotions.

Concubine Fu shook her head.

“Your Majesty, I did intend to prank Yen’s sister but didn’t mean to hurt her, I really didn’t have that kind of intention, please Your Majesty listen to my explanation, I did use that string but, as I remember I already cut it off, it’s not me, it’s really not me, Your Majesty please believe me”

.....

The Crown Prince turned his head, he glanced at BeiYau and let his subordinates take care of it, he’s very dizzy thinking about YingYing’s condition and couldn’t think straight. He headed out to the gate followed by the guards.

“Take her to the detention room,” BeiYau said to his men, the two young guards escorted her out while she was still trying to struggle.



“Your Majesty! Please listen to my explanation, please have mercy, Your Majesty.”

BeiYau approached the Crown Prince who was now standing outside Concubine Fu’s Orchid pavilion.

“Your Majesty”

“Concubine Fu is the daughter of a high-ranking official FuYa from logistics department, lest official Fu hear this news from others, immediately send someone to deliver this news”

BeiYau nodded.

“Yes Your Majesty”

.......

The wind blows gently.

The sound of the rustling of tall grass stalks filled the meadow with the sound of the wind passing by, a very clear sound because there was nothing else there but the vast nature with all the wide, limitless viewpoints. BaiYing swayed his feet, sitting on a boulder near a hundred-year-old tree whose roots were even protruding from the ground. Someone sat not far in front of him, smiling at BaiYing’s very bright face in the late afternoon.

“How is it? Do you like it?” He is LuoXiang, the honorable Crown Prince.

Bai Ying nodded.
“Yeah, I like it”

BaiYing can’t be happier than this, finally, the Crown Prince could take him for a walk alone in the valley, without any bodyguards around, just the two of them, the Crown Prince stood up from his seat about to come near him, but, just a step away, at his very beautiful and luxurious clothes, right at the chest which now oozing fresh blood, as the instant the clothes all wet by his own blood.

BaiYing stuttered, he couldn’t move, right behind the Crown Prince was a man dressed in all black, wielding a longsword that pierced from the back through to the Crown Prince’s chest.

“Y-Your Majesty”

As like the air was sucked away from him, BaiYing’s chest hurt, his body stiffened as stone, and couldn’t move at all, only seeing the Crown Prince who was spewing fresh blood from his mouth as the long sword was pulled out from his chest.

“No, Your Majesty!” BaiYing threw himself off the rock and crawled over to the Crown Prince which was already lying motionless.

“Your Majesty.”

The tall man in black who was still holding the long sword full of the Crown Prince’s blood laughed loudly, so loudly that his voice echoed around the valley.

“Hahahahaha!”

BaiYing’s hands trembled, the Crown Prince’s body didn’t move, he shakes the man hard.

“Your Majesty, please wake up, Your Majesty”

Glare.

The light snuck through the window and hit directly to BaiYing’s eyes which slowly opened.

His head hurt unbelievably, his body seemed to float with the bed constantly swaying, he felt like throwing up all his stomach contents, but maybe it was because he was too hungry.

BaiYing got up from his bed, he’s better to get up to find some food, he must have slept too long and now was starving.

With his head still spinning BaiYing got up holding onto whatever he could reach by his hand because he couldn’t rely on his wobbly body.

“Eh”

...

Plum Pavilion went into a frenzy because of Concubine Hua’s disappearance, as soon as the Crown Prince arrived at the pavilion and couldn’t find BaiYing anywhere, everyone was busy looking for him.

“What just all of you up to? how did Concubine Hua disappear without anyone seeing him?” cried the Crown Prince, he was worried to death, he rushed up his work to be able to meet BaiYing and couldn’t wait to see him that afternoon but his bed was empty and no one sees him, right until the Crown Prince turned his head towards the back door, where someone was already standing next by the door with his innocent face holding food in his both hands.

“This brat” without waiting the Crown Prince immediately approached him, opened his arms wide, and hugged BaiYing who was only wearing his white clothes with a slightly dirty face from the charcoal and two hands holding rice cakes.

“YingYing, where have you been?”

Yan and Bi approached quickly.

“Your Majesty”

BaiYing hugged back the Crown Prince, he smiled broadly feeling the warmth of the big body’s embrace, it happens that the weather was so cold now.

“Hehe Your Majesty, I was only looking for food just now because I was hungry, why everybody is so noisy?”

The Crown Prince let go of his embrace, his watery eyes as like he was about to cry, he raised his hand to clean the charcoal stains on BaiYing’s cheeks and nose, the boy didn’t know how much he missed him, he can’t let go BaiYing and hugged him tightly, such a lame Crown Prince, he just realized how weakly he’s now.

“This kid, you’ve been unconscious for three days, don’t you know that?”

BaiYing opened his eyes wide, three days? Unconscious? No wonder he was so hungry, and no wonder Yan and Bi, as well as the other servants, saw him with bloodshot eyes and wept.

“Ems Your Majesty, thank goodness”

But BaiYing didn’t feel anything, the last thing he remembers was the night he went to sleep after being too tired of writing decrees and fell into a deep sleep since the Crown Prince was no longer attached to him, is it really, he’s been sleeping for five days?

“Where have you been? Why not ask your maid for help if you need anything?” said the Crown Prince holding BaiYing’s hand towards the room.

BaiYing smiled awkwardly.

“Eh hehe, I’m just looking for food”

The Crown Prince looked at Yan and Bi who followed the two into the room.

“You guys prepare dinner, just make something light because YingYing just woke up”

Yan and Bi lowered their knees.

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

The Crown Prince gently pulled BaiYing’s hand and sat on the bed, brushing BaiYing’s messy front hair, touching his cheek, looking at the face very close with all his heart’s content.

BaiYing grabbed the Crown Prince’s hand.

“Your Majesty, earlier, I had a bad dream, it was so bad, Your Majesty, you have to promise that you will always take care and not get yourself hurt.”

The Crown Prince stopped his hand movements, seeing BaiYing’s serious face, he smiled and grabbed BaiYing’s hand.

“So does YingYing, you must also promise not to get hurt again, let alone to leave me, because, when that happens, I, might die too.”

BaiYing lowered his head to the Crown Prince’s chest, just silently looking the other way.

“Erm, Your Majesty, I don’t mind, if I can’t give anything to Your Majesty.”

The Crown Prince caressed and kissed BaiYing’s forehead.

“What else do I need, if I already have YingYing by my side, other things, is not so important”

BaiYing then raised his arms, wrapped around the Crown Prince’s waist, taking a deep breath, put his head at the man wide shoulder.

“One day, Your Majesty will definitely find my weakness, and when that happens, Your Majesty will definitely not want any more servants, so...”

The Crown Prince held BaiYing’s back when the boy said that but and raised his head and stare at him, LuoXiang swallowed hard, he never wished for any separation, whatever the form is, he will not be able to accept it, not in this life or forever.
