CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

172 Story of Lost Palace

LuoXiang smiled, he stroked BaiYing’s front hair.

“Hey, are you okay? How do you feel? Do you feel uncomfortable?” he asked.

BaiYing saw LuoXiang’s tired face, slowly raised his hand to caress the man’s cheek, who looked much thinner because of his tired face, black circle below his deep looking eyes, his unshaved jaws,

“Your Highness, are you alright? Did that person hurt Your Majesty?”

LuoXiang grabbed BaiYing’s finger, kissed it, and shook his head.

“Heh no, how can that person hurt me, who is your XiangXiang brother? The unmatched great honorable Crown Prince, I am the Heavenly King, who can beat me?”

BaiYing smiled, his whole body ached unbelievably, his head was heavy, even opening his eyes was very heavy, but, feeling the warmth of the Crown Prince’s big and firm hand, made him feel very safe, there was nothing more comfortable even though all the pain in his body had not yet disappeared.

“Your Majesty, servant, very tired, let me sleep for a while, Your Majesty, also need to rest a lot, don’t worry too much about me, servant, will be fine” BaiYing’s hand tried to caress LuoXiang’s cheek until he couldn’t hold back his tiredness and tightly closed his eyes, LuoXiang smiled, he nodded as he grabbed BaiYing’s soft palm and pressed it to his cheek.

“Of course YingYing, you will be fine, nothing matters now.”

.....

Not long after from the door, ShinYa entered and lowered his head in front of the Crown Prince.

“Sincerely, Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Majesty summoned me?”

LuoXiang, who was still sitting on the edge of BaiYing’s bed, slowly tucked the young man’s cold hand under the blanket.

“Heh master Shin, how are you doing, how about your wounds?” He asks, Shinya lowered his head.

“Thank you for worrying servant, fortunately, servant is not hurt at all”

LuoXiang looked at the young man who’s bowing his head in front of him.

“What exactly did DuGu Ye want by taking you along with her? what makes you so precious that she kept you alive.”

Hearing that, ShinYa who lowered his head didn’t dare to look at LuoXiang’s sharp eyes, stuttering, although he peeked a little.

“Eh Your Majesty, about that, .. er, all of this is related to the Lost Palace”

LuoXiang caressed BaiYing’s pale face and kissed his forehead which was very hot from his fever, slowly stood up from his seat moved closer to the table, and sat down, he was tired, his body too still sore in parts from last night’s battle, but he couldn’t rest while BaiYing’s condition was still erratic, LuoXiang grabbed the small cup in the tray and poured his own tea.

“That, YueWang, who is he actually? What does that person have to do with WahYe? And made that madman so eager to find the Lost Palace of WahYe? And, this palace, how did such a huge palace disappear from the sight of the world and no one was able to find it until now?”

ShinYa raised his head, seeing LuoXiang who was looking at him waiting for his answer, he lowered his head again.

“Pardon Your Majesty, for not telling this before, but, according to the story from my grandfather, the Great Palace of WahYe is said to have a very powerful mechanism in terms of defense from the outside world, this is what initially makes the palace very strong and can always break free from the shackles of the enemy’s attack, but, it’s also said, only Emperor LuoWang knew how the palace works so he asked Great King YenHui to share his secret, after that, don’t know for sure what happened until the attack happened on the palace and made King YenHui and family fled after activating the mechanism of the palace, which in the end, the family still got caught too”

“This is very strange, if Wahye palace really has such a great mechanism, the royal family should have stayed inside the palace in order to survive, what made King YenHui run away from the palace?”

ShinYa shook his head.

“This, I also don’t understand Your Majesty, all of my grandfather’s stories, don’t tell for sure the reason the Great King and his family left the palace.”

LuoXiang took a sip of his tea, although it didn’t taste as delicious as tea in the palace, it was enough to calm him in the midst of the current conditions. He put the cup back in its place.

“Then, is it true that the palace can still be opened? After all these years?” he asked.

ShinYa restrained himself, neither shook his head nor nodded, he was also a bit hesitant.

“This, servant, as Shin the Divine Shaman family, was told since childhood, even one day we had to perform a very important task as one of the four pillars of the nation’s support, the mechanism of the Lost Palace had four corners, with the middle part which the successor of the family had to ignite himself, and servant, as a descendant of a powerful shaman, as well as a descendant of General Song, Minister of Defense KeLu, and the DuGu family”

LuoXiang frowned.

“DuGu Family? You mean DuGu YeHua’s family?” explained, ShinYa nodded.

“That’s right Your Majesty, the four families are the protectors of WahYe from generation to generation, for hundreds of years all the direct and indirect descendants of the four pillars will help WahYe Kingdom to achieve its glory, and the four pillars of the mechanism, are built with blood and aura as a trigger to revive it, and, which can open the seal, must be a pure descendant of WahYe Kingdom”

LuoXiang in deep thought, still couldn’t keep up with all the ShinYa stories he just heard, the young man stood up and walked over to ShinYa, taking a close look.

“What, all the descendants of the four pillars still exist today? How can YueWang be so sure of being able to turn on the mechanism of the Lost palace, and especially break the seal, who exactly is that person?”

ShinYa lowered his head back, then slowly lifted it up, this time seeing LuoXiang’s eyes waiting for his answer until ShinYa who seemed to feel very guilty lowered his head back deeply.

“Eh, I don’t really know who YueWang’s true identity is, but, he has a very dark aura, lastly, I met him when I was fifteen years old, at that time, YueWang came to our hut, and he threatened Father to say in where is the whereabouts of the pure WahYe royal successor, the descendant who holds the Memory coin, and, because of that person, threatening father with my life, father, had is no choice but to tell him, about, the whereabouts of the palace Pure descendant who posses the Memory Coin”

LuoXiang clenched his fists, looked at ShinYa’s downcast face in front of him.

“So you guys who told the old man about the whereabouts of Princess SanNiang?”

ShinYa lowered his body quickly, kneeling deeply.

“Forgive servant, Your Majesty, my father had no other choice, he was forced to say it because he did not want my life to be lost, he also did not think that that person, would take Princess’s life, after knowing that fact my father feel so guilty and take his own life”

The Crown Prince was furious, but how could he blame the person in front of him? Even though his Mother and Princess SanNiang died because that person learned of his whereabouts from them, still, the main culprit was YueWang, his first target was the Memory Coin, and after not being able to find it in the first time, maybe that person thought back to look for it at home, and found out about BaiYing afterward, what a perfect coincidence, in BaiYing’s body stored a piece of dragon pearl which is also the goal of that person, he must be so ambitious to revive his country that he justifies all means, and all events revolved around the boy all this time.

“Then, when did that person find out that BaiYing is the Son of Princess SanNiang? Did you tell him too?” LuoXiang asked.

ShinYa shook his head quickly.

“I don’t dare Your Majesty, regarding the identity of the young Prince, it’s likely that YueWang only found out recently because the memory coin appeared, making the connection between the three coins vibrate again, even though it couldn’t find the exact whereabouts of the coin’s owner, there is a possibility, the people of YueWang, being very close around His Highness the Crown Prince and the Young Prince and informing him”

LuoXiang opened his eyes wide.

“So, you mean, there’s a spy in the palace?”

ShinYa nodded.

“That’s right Your Majesty, descendants of people from WahYe country may have occupied half of YueYang palace by now, although not all have the same understanding as YueWang, but it is possible that some of them will agree with the rebellion plan.”

LuoXiang hit the table hard.

“Insolent, that person”
