628 Allies ?
Shin Ya realized that the Crown Prince didn’t want anything to do with this matter, so he just smiled at King Bi Lou who was looking at him with eyes that seemed to be out of place.
“Erm, I’m afraid that is the state regulation, King, as citizens of all countries should obey it. If His Majesty doesn’t want that, then, please pardon me, King and the people of Son Wa might not be part of Xin Hua or Yue Yang.”
The King of Bi Lou looked even more objectionable to Shin Ya’s words, he almost stood up and shouted back but found a look Bei Yau who was already sharp on him seemed ready to attack him. Though that didn’t stop him from protesting.
“This is outrageous, we Son Wa tribe have never bowed down to anyone, and neither Yue Yang nor Xin Hua, you have no idea who we really are, and this country should be very proud to have us as allies, for Son Wa’s power is above anyone else! ” he exclaimed.
Shin Ya and the other officials inside were surprised to hear King Bi Lou’s loud voice, the big man no longer heeded even the Crown Prince’s presence. Luo Xiang was really too lazy to deal with him, but he would rather face that person or the Viceroy Xin Hua. Hua Bai Ying would be gentler than him, he thought. Luo Xiang finally lowered off of his legs that he had crossed since earlier, and in the slightest movement of his fingers something shot so fast it almost hit King Bi Lou’s cheek, passed him and stuck heavily into the pillar some distance behind him.
Brukk!
King Bi Lou’s eyes widened, he clearly saw that whatever object was flying towards him, ready to hit his head, but instead it just passed and scratched his cheek. He swallowed his saliva whole, no one even realized that apart from the great people around the Crown Prince.
“Gleuk”
Elder Yi raised his teacup. The old man had been just sitting there drinking tea and enjoying a snack that was too good to pass up, he didn’t care about the surroundings, he just needed to seat there with all ears up, or not. But clearly, the Crown Prince’s slight movement made him turn his head and get excited.
.....
“Hmm, it’s starting to heat up”
Luo Xiang looked at King Bi Lou with sharp eyes. He lowered the uncovered cup back onto the saucer.
“Heh, this is just a waste of time, Old Counselor Pai, please escort our guest out, since apparently, he is not interested in being a citizen of Yue Yang and Xin Hua, why should we hold him back?”
After speaking quietly as soon as Luo Xiang got up from his seat. Pulling his waist because he had sat there too long.
The old advisor Pai who was standing beside him lowered his head and nodded.
“Yes, Your Majesty”
But King Bi Lou was furious. He punched the table which instantly shattered when he landed his palm. His face was bright red with his rage.
“I can’t accept this, is this how His Highness the Crown Prince treats his guests? Whether you agree or not this palace will not be able to run well without the support of the tribal chiefs, and all the tribes in Wah Ye highly respect the Son Wa, do you think strength alone is the mainstay for you to be able to take control on this Palace?” he asked.
King Bi Lou’s voice was loud and arrogant.
Luo Xiang won’t get affected, if he didn’t remember that he had to uphold the good name of the palace, he would have definitely pushed the big man down from where he stood proudly.
But, in an instant it was exactly what happened before his eyes.
A violent gust of wind blew out of nowhere and knocked the huge King very hard against the wall after his body was raised quite high.
“Brukk!”
The Crown Prince and the officials were shocked. Watching the King’s huge body fall miserably onto the table which instantly shattered into pieces, almost hitting his two advisors if they didn’t get out of the way.
“King!” they both shouted at the same time.
The ministers stepped aside. Whatever it was, it was clear that no one wanted to be the next victim because they were too close to the King.
Crown Prince and others turned towards the door, where Bai Ying appeared, walking in with Chen Ming and Xiao Hong. Bai Ying was seen folding his wide sleeves behind his waist, having just used them to teach a lesson to the King who could only speak in a loud voice until now. He could hear that long before he approached.
Luo Xiang’s eyes widened, Bai Ying’s face when he entered with his brother and Xiao Hong was radiant and majestic befitting the position he held, a Viceroy. He didn’t expect that his gentle and very cute beloved concubine could be this frightening towards other humans. That not his nature to do violence before else. He must be very irritated.
Bai Ying stopped not far from King Bi Lou who was trying to get up after falling very hard and embarrassingly. Bai Ying smiled at the King he saw for the first time. Even King BiLou, who was about to curse out loud, stopped when he find Bai Ying’s sweet face already in front of him. He was mesmerized and lost for words.
“Eh”
“Oh, pardon me, King Bi Lou, if it’s not the power that controls this palace? I must wave my hand too hard and accidentally hit you. But, I just wonder, please tell me what should we do. How can the palace handle people like the revered King Bi Lou who is so powerful and perhaps the other tribes?”
Bai Ying’s question made King Bi Lou stutter. He didn’t mind being on the floor with his chest pressed against the floor and his head looking up to see the figure of a young man he had never imagined existed. Bai Ying’s flawless face, even his sinister smile was exquisite.
“Ohh, this”
“His Royal Highness the Viceroy and Chief Advisor have arrived!!” cried the hall doorman, which, indeed, was very late.
........
Heeee!
The sound of a huge horse stopped right in front of the gate of Xin Hua palace. Night came and the guests seemed not to leave yet. A young man dressed in white with some metallic ornaments which glinted in the reflection of the oil lamp stopped in front of the Son Wa warriors who were standing outside the gates of the palace. The young man jumped down from his horse towards the head of the warrior he knew.
“Guard Gu, why are you all out here, is this how the palace treats its guests? Where’s Father?” he asked. It turned out that a tall, dark-skinned young man, though not as dark as Bi Lou and his soldiers, was Bi Yeng, the Crown Prince of the Son Wa tribe.
He has a handsome face with a tall, straight body in beautiful clothes like Son Wa’s signature clothes, with short sleeves and a thick bottom with pants and an outer layer that is as high as the calves. High-heeled leather boots with heavy hangings at the hem. Obviously, his clothes were much more beautiful than those King Bi Lou or his advisers wore that day. At least someone looked a lot more interesting out of all the barbarian men.
Guard Gu saluted by placing one arm crossed in front of his chest and bowing his head deeply.
“Your Highness the Crown Prince. His Majesty the King is inside, and we are only allowed to wait outside without even being allowed to enter. There were even some people who suddenly attacked us this afternoon” said the tall, big man.
Hearing that Prince Bi Yeng widened his eyes, and clenched his fists holding back anger.
“How could you let others attack you? Aren’t you the strongest squad? Who has been so impudent as to do it!”
Bi Yeng looked furious. He handed the reins of his horse to one of the soldiers and rushed to the palace entrance which was guarded by several big guards.
“Oh, it turns out that His Highness the Crown Prince has come.”
Just a few steps forward, seen from inside the exit gate Shi Shen followed by several soldiers of the palace. The young man smiled and clenched his two fists in front of Bi Yeng greeting him.
Bi Yeng looked at Shi Shen for a moment from top to bottom. Seeing the young man in the glittering coat of arms of the Xin Hua palace.
“Who are you?” he asked.
Shi Shen smoothed his hair that fell in front of his chest and walked towards Bi Yeng with one hand behind his waist.
“Oh, me, no one, just the Young Minister of Defense who has been out of work lately and you guys have suddenly come to keep me busy. Heh, well it can’t be helped, I’m tired of doing nothing since the palace is always at peace.”
