CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

514 Back to the Palace

It didn’t take long for Bei Yau back with Bai Ying’s order and approached the carriage.

Bai Ying, who couldn’t wait to enjoy his jerky, stretch out his hand and took it from Guard Bei’s hands.

“Wow, thank you very much guard Bei, this smells so good, do bodyguard Bei want some?” he asked, the Guard shake his head politely.

“No, thank you, Your Majesty”

The young man sat on his carriage with a beaming face at the still hot package of jerky.

“Brat, come on in and sit down properly, we will continue our journey” cried the Crown Prince pulling Bai Ying’s hand into the carriage.

“Yes, Your Majesty, here is another pack for Her Majesty the Queen, do you think she will like it?”

The group finally continued their trip.

“How could she like that kind of food like that, it’s too greasy for her skin, The Queen never want to eat randomly street greasy food like this,” replied the Crown Prince.

.....

Bai Ying pursed his lips, chewing on the beef jerky puffed up in his mouth and chewing like a rabbit.

“Nyom nyam nay nya” and talks randomly as if anyone could understand him.

“This kid, can’t you eat gracefully, why put so much in your mouth at once, look at your cheeks it’s so rounded like this,” said the Crown Prince trying to pinch Bai Ying’s cheeks which puffed up like a squirrel.

Bai Ying finished chewing and swallowed his food.

“This is delicious Your Majesty, can’t wait to eat it all, but what if it runs out again? Can Ying go out to buy it, Your Majesty?”

The voices of the two of them were heard out of the large and luxurious golden carriage which had greatly attracted the attention of the citizens, they resume their trip back.

“Definitely it’s not allowed! Why is Ying Ying so fond of eating jerky, what’s so good about it?”

Bei Yau rode the horse beside the chariot, he could most clearly hear the voices of the two from inside the chariot.

“Akh Your Majesty, why did you eat mine? There’s still a lot of them there” Bai Ying shouts in his shrill voice, the Crown Prince bite the jerky that was in his mouth.

“Well, this one look so delicious, brother only wants this one”

“It’s all the same, how is it different from the one in Ying er’s mouth? His Majesty is so naughty, you said you didn’t like it but why did you eat it?”

“This brat, then what can we do about this? Umm wait, there’s still a little left here”

Bai Ying widened his eyes as the Crown Prince tilted his head and kissed his lips, picking up the jerky crumbs left on his sweet lips.

“Akh Your Majesty, didn’t you say you shouldn’t steal kisses without warning, Your Majesty is cheating again!”

Bei Yau couldn’t help but smile at the two of them, he was too presumptuous to overhear, but the young guard couldn’t help it, the Crown Prince who’s now very different from the cold figure he had known for so long.

“That’s not called kissing, I’m just helping you to take the crumbs left, my Ying Ying said he liked it very much and was afraid to run out, so I have no choice but to take the leftovers, oh its indeed so delicious, especially from my sweet Ying Ying’s lips,” said Crown Prince touch his own lips.

“But, hold on, let me taste it again” The Crown Prince once again moves his head to try to kiss Bai Ying.

“Your Majesty, there’s no more left, see, it’s clean”

And the Crown Prince finally couldn’t help but laugh so hard.

Bai Ying pursed his lips in annoyance.

“Your Majesty always teasing Ying’er”

“Hahaha, please forgive me, my dear Ying Ying, come here, sit back, you will fall for sitting like that”

On the side of the road.

The young man with a long spear in his hand stood behind the youth dressed in sparkling sky blue in front of him, after which the young man hastily chased after the man who was now on horseback beside the golden carriage.

“Your Majesty, who are they? Are they Yue Yang’s officials?” asked the young man holding the spear.

The young man he called Your Highness clenched his fists, looking at the group walking past him.

“They are not the officials, Hu, but more than that.”

The young man called Hu frowned, he saw His Majesty looking at the passing group and smiled, a smile he had not seen from the young man in front of him.

“Your Majesty seemed to recognize them before?”

The young man in front of him nodded his head, he smiled, the young man was none other than Lo Yi, who smiled when he could finally see Bai Ying’s face again after they parted in such a worrying state, now, his chest suddenly became light and warm.

“Heh, thank God, brother Ying”

Lo Yi saw the flags and armour motifs of the guards on the front and back of the group, he immediately turned his body towards the restaurant earlier.

“Come on Hu, we have to hurry.”

Bodyguard Hu frowned, he followed Lo Yi.

“Eh, go where Your Majesty? We haven’t even eaten yet”

“Where else, Hu, obviously we going to visit Yue Yang palace, the group is heading there right? We can have dinner at the palace, their food must be delicious right?”

Bodyguard Hu stuttered, what was on His Majesty’s mind, earlier in the day he said he would not enter the palace before the event started, he said it would be so boring, so he decided to stay overnight in the city and will enter the palace by tomorrow, why has it suddenly changed again?

“Eh Your Majesty, wait for me!” cried the young guard.

....

The dragon field was busy again, as the Crown Prince’s entourage finally arrived before the skies dark, just as the sun went down the chariot entered the golden dragon courtyard, which was greeted with great cheer by the sound of gongs and officials lined up neatly in front of the hall.

“Gong! Gong!”

“His Highness the Crown Prince! And the Viceroy has arrived!” cried the gatekeeper in a loud voice.

The Emperor was seen standing with the Empress at the front of the hall, impatiently waiting for the chariot that was visible from the end of the enormous dragon courtyard to approach the front.

“Hehehe finally they come home,” said the Emperor.

Seen in a row behind the Emperor and Queen, along with the concubines of the Emperor and the concubines of the Crown Prince, Lui Fan and Fu Lan, stood also the beautiful Princess of Dai Yang who also welcomed the arrival of the entourage.

After waiting for a while, the golden carriage finally arrived in front of the steps of the golden dragon great hall. The Emperor couldn’t wait to come down to greet him when the Queen’s voice stopped him.

“Ahem, Your Majesty, we have a guest here” the Queen whispered to the Emperor to behave. But the man didn’t care, he went down the stairs and stood beside the carriage that had stopped. Bei Yau and the guards and servants of the Crown Prince’s entourage immediately lowered their knees as they saw the approaching Emperor.

“Greeting! Your Majesty the Emperor!”

The Emperor simply waved his hand ordering everyone to stand while his eyes couldn’t take his eyes off the carriage where the Crown Prince appeared from within.

The Crown Prince frowned, he lowered his head from inside the carriage and got off, greeting his father who was standing not far from his carriage, surprisingly, did the old man miss him so much that he couldn’t wait for him off from the carriage?

Luo Xiang stretched out his hand to help Bai Ying get off the carriage, as soon as the two of them came out, the palace officials immediately lowered their knees to welcome the arrival of the Crown Prince and his concubine.

“Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Prince, our respects to the Viceroy, welcome back to the palace!”

Bai Ying smiled broadly, apparently, he was very happy to be back in the palace, a feeling he couldn’t describe in words. Could see the faces of the Queen, concubines, Chai Ma and the other maids who were like family to him, and, who else but the Emperor who was already in front of him.

“Eh, Servant Hua Bai Ying pays respects to Your Majesty the Emperor, may Your Majesty live long and always be healthy”

The Emperor chuckled, he laughed until his red cheeks were round like tomatoes, impatiently approach his favourite son-in-law and help him up, of course, The Crown Prince precedes him.

“Xiang er pays respects to father, Your Majesty the Emperor”

The emperor chuckled, his rotten son seemed to be deliberately blocking him from approaching his concubine, he was indeed a very stingy, impudent child.

“Hehehe Crown Prince, welcome back to the palace, how was your trip? Was it tiring enough?”

Meanwhile, the Queen and the concubines were impatiently approaching Bai Ying.

“Oh my sweet child, finally I can see your face again, let me look at you, ouch” The Queen couldn’t wait to hug Bai Ying, as did Fan er and Lan er.

“Greetings Your Majesty the Queen, Ying er is home, sisters”

The Queen caressed Bai Ying’s delicate cheeks, her eyes were teary and almost crying, so grateful to see Bai Ying’s face again and after so many bad things that happened to him, holding his two thin palms and his bones being palpable quite clearly.

“Oh boy, look at you, why are you so skinny? Did my Ying er miss the palace so much that you didn’t eat well enough?”
