CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

Chapter 129

129 Arrive at XianYang

While in his right hand there was still beef jerky that had not been put into his mouth, the young man took another one and prepared to put it in, his mouth grew big like a squirrel, really adorable, his big eyes glanced at the Crown Prince and smiled until it disappeared.

“Hehehe”

LuoXiang looked at BaiYing to his heart’s content, slowly again lifting his hand through BaiYing’s hair and tucked it behind his ear.

“YingYing, um, there is someone who wants to meet you.”

The young man turned his head with big eyes, quickly swallowing the food he had chewed.

“Who?” he asked, putting the food back in until his mouth swelled up again.

For a moment, LuoXiang didn’t say anything, he seemed to hesitate whether to speak or not, the thing that changed his look on his happy face to see BaiYing become serious, it made BaiYing even more curious.

“Your Majesty, who is it?”

“Em, someone you know, do, you want to see him?”

.....

The Crown Prince’s question, especially his face at that time made BaiYing’s hand stop putting food in his mouth, it must be so serious since the Crown Prince saw him still.

“Your Majesty, who wants to see me? Everyone that Ying’er knows is gone, except...” Unknowingly, the food that was still left in BaiYing’s hands fell, if it’s not mistaken, that person,...

............

Not long after that.

“Brother Yi Fang!” BaiYing exclaimed to meet YiFang who was standing in a small room not far behind the big house, the man who now turned around greeted him with a very big smile on his face which was no longer the YiFang he used to be.

BaiYing stuttered, he stopped his movements not far in front of the young man, his eyes welled with tears at the familiar figure, and, now, completely different, his face and thin body, full of scars on his face, even long scars, from his cheek to his left eye, he was not his old handsome YiFang brother anymore, the young man he knew.

“Brother”

.........

It didn’t take long for BaiYing finally came out of the room where YiFang was, walking unsteadily towards the Crown Prince who was waiting for him. LuoXiang was just about to ask him, but BaiYing’s arms quickly embraced him.

“Heh” came a long sigh from him, LuoXiang stuttered, he couldn’t say anything, BaiYing’s reaction at that time said everything clearly, he hugged BaiYing and stroked his hair.

“Hey Ying Ying”

.......

Klop klop klop.

The sound of the hoofs of horses treading the path out of the city limits of DuAn to the next town, soon the group will probably arrive at XianYang valley, a small town at the foot of a very beautiful mountain. As far as the eye can see a series of mountains resembling a dragon that stretches a long way around the big city. Very prosperous city due to the production of weapons and jewelry, actually, to be back to the palace the entourage only needed to go around the city and no need to enter it, however, in a city that was bustling with people from outside the area lived someone that BaiYing missed, maybe will just take a walk and short visit.

BaiYing was still sitting with his serious face leaning on the Crown Prince remembering what YiFang had said earlier, a young man who experienced a lot after escaping from the palace, it’s true, that YiFang was one of the plotters that massacred his family, but, according to the Crown Prince, they didn’t find any traces of blood on his swords, a pair of very clean swords. While most of his family were killed with sharp blades, though, it didn’t rule out that YiFang was the culprit, but, it gave BaiYing a little hope that his brother YiFang, might not be the one who killed his parents and sister.

In that small room, where YiFang was briefly detained, the young man restrained himself, several times his raised hand was about to touch BaiYing, but he stopped, does, he still deserve it?

But BaiYing didn’t care, he grabbed YiFang’s shaking hand and touched it to his cheek, where the tears started to flow again.

“Brother”

YiFang lowered his head and restrained himself from crying.

“Ems, thank goodness, little brother is fine, sorry brother was late to catch up to LiuYang when you were attacked by ErWang, brother was a little restrained, is brothers really okay?”

BaiYing nodded, while YiFang looked him up and down.

“Emm, Ying’er is fine, the serpent didn’t eat me, hehe, maybe because Ying’er is too thin so it loses appetite, hehe”

YiFang himself, fought so many enemies, several times almost died from his injuries, not even was able to avoid when the sword slashed his face making him almost blind in his left eye, fortunately, someone saved him, when he was caught and briefly imprisoned in the dungeon of the Black Water Clan, a magic healer saved his life, and to repay him, YiFang also helped the healer who had become a prisoner for a long time to escape.

Crown Prince didn’t restrain YiFang, instead released him, since he thought, YiFang was also trying to find the main mastermind behind the Hua family’s assassination, which is also, the person who wanted the Bloodstone so much since they were younger. For that reason, the Crown Prince released him, BaiYing, maybe not will be able to meet his YiFang brother again, because what that young man is doing now, might cost his life, actually, thinking all that, BaiYing really wants to forget his family’s grudge, and let whoever it is to go, as long as, everyone he knows and love, can live in peace, but, what can he do? How about, the lives of twenty-two members of his family, he must avenge them.

The slightly swaying carriage interrupted BaiYing’s thoughts, the Crown Prince briefly frowned at how calm the boy was, unlike usual.

“YingYing, are you still tired?” asked the Crown Prince stroking BaiYing’s back hair, the young man snapped out of his thoughts a bit, without realizing his tears were flowing, he quickly wiped them and smiled at the Crown Prince, he shook his head.

“Um no, Just a little sleepy because of bored hehehe”

The voice of the crowd outside the carriage could be heard clearly, BaiYing pushed aside the curtains and poked his head out of the inside seeing the many people walking in the middle of the market street which was bustling with sellers and buyers, his eyes widened, this what he had been waiting for, everywhere he goes.

“Wow, that’s a really nice figure mask, wow, that food looks delicious, wow, that’s good jewelry, Your Majesty, let’s get out, buy some for Sis Fan’er and Her Majesty the Queen, also for brother Tu and other, he must have been so lonely all this time.”

LuoXiang held BaiYing’s clothes back so the boy couldn’t get out, but BaiYing’s hand let go of his.

“Your Majesty, I want to get out”

“This kid, stay seated properly, don’t go anywhere we will arrive at the destination in a moment”

“Your Majesty, it won’t take long, that’s a lot of good stuff, look at the pendant, it’s so pretty, there are also sweets, Ying’er wants it”

LuoXiang called BeiYau over.

“Bei!” he cried,

“Yes Your Majesty” BeiYau had keen ears, even though he was outside the enormous chariot he knew immediately when the Crown Prince called out to him.

After a while,

BaiYing was already sitting quietly in the carriage enjoying the sweets in his hands, he ate them like a child.

“This kid really”

The young man laughed until his face wrinkled.

“Heheh, um” he hastily swallowed the crushed sweets in his mouth.

“This, where are we, Your Majesty? It so crowded, is there still a long way back to the palace? Servant can’t wait to take my bath.”

LuoXiang saw the playful face of the young man who was now looking at him with a pair of big round eyes, blinking a number of times while waiting for the Crown Prince’s answer.

“Guess”

Crown Prince BaiYing’s answer frowned, he put the food back in his mouth not caring about the Crown Prince’s request.

“Erm, why have to guess, we’re not playing a game now, it’s weird”

LuoXiang refrained from smacking the boy, very excited.

“This brat”

Until, soon the group arrived in front of the courtyard of a large house not far from the bustling city of XianYang, a house with a high gate and a gleaming name plaque above the large door, with two doormen wearing warrior uniforms who stood guard at the front gate, which of course, immediately saluted when he recognized the YueYang palace’s chariot group that had stopped in front of the mansion’s gate.

“Sincerely Your Highness the Crown Prince”

Since BeiYau’s men had previously informed the Crown Prince’s arrival to the mansion, so that everyone was prepared to welcome him, it didn’t take long for the owner of the house to come out with the entourage to greet the Crown Prince who slowly got off his chariot.

A group of high-ranking officials with friendly faces who couldn’t hide their joy at welcoming the Crown Prince’s entourage there, all kneeling in front of the Crown Prince who stretched out his hand to help BaiYing out of the carriage.

“Sincerely Your Highness the Crown Prince!”

BaiYing slowly, holding on to LuoXiang’s hand, descended the stairs that were being prepared by the guards, before even going down, his eyes widened to see whose house their group had come to.

“Wow, Grandpa Po!” he cried impatiently wanting to run down, but he couldn’t with his leg still hurting.

General Po and his family, already kneeling in front of the Crown Prince, all stood up after the Crown Prince allowed them, without thinking twice BaiYing who had come down a little wobbly ran over to General Po who greeted him with a big smile.

“Hehehe Xiao Ying! This kid”

BaiYing almost jumped happily, if he didn’t remember his leg was still very sore, he was so happy to see that round face that smiled until his cheeks were red, Grandpa Po who he missed so much.

“Grandpa! Heheheh Ying’er really misses grandpa!”

“Hehehe this kid, grandpa also misses you a lot, look at my XiaoYing’s face, owh it’s more adorable, your cheeks are rounded”

The Crown Prince refrained from laughing, he also said what, the kid’s cheeks were a bit rounded, BaiYing’s eyes still managed to glance sharply at him.

“Hehehe”
