523 Know Him Before
“Eh, little brother, actually, what happened to you guys, does, little brother and His Highness the Crown Prince have a fight?” asked Lan er.
Bai Ying looked at the two who were looking at him with a strange look, he smiled.
“What fight? No, we’re not, why should we?”
Lan er couldn’t wait to ask more questions until someone appeared and stopped her intentions.
“Servant Lo Yi, may I please join His Majesty the Viceroy and the beautiful ladies here?”
Bai Ying raised his head, Lo YI had already arrived and stopped in front of him. The Crown Prince Dai Yang with his extremely stunning appearance smiled broadly as he lowered his head in front of Bai Ying who was looking up at him.
“Brother, Lo Yi?” Bai Ying asked.
Lo Yi nodded, he stretched out his hand, took Bai Ying’s hand and kissed it. Fan er and Lan er who didn’t expect that person would come and do so widened their eyes, holding their breath.
“Ooh”
.....
Bai Ying stuttered, neither did he himself nor did he expect the man to do it so blatantly, while he knew how the Crown Prince reacted yesterday, however, Bai Ying couldn’t be rude to just pull his hand away, after all, that person was holding it firmly.
“Eh”
Lo Yi smiled, his eyes shining when he saw the young man from a very close distance.
“Emmh, Xiao Ying, you look so shiny and fragrant today, why does your light always make all eyes want to look at you, how can I turn my eyes in another direction?” whispered Lo Yi.
“Eh, brother Lo Yi, turns out to be the Crown Prince of Dai Yang, why did you never say anything?” Bai Ying asked.
Lo Yi saw Bai Ying’s face for a moment.
“I didn’t have to, big brother is hoping that we are two adventurers who meet on the road and enjoy travelling together, big brother can protect you out there, ride and get off horses together, that’s more fun isn’t it?”
Bai Ying had to admit, he did enjoy his short trip with Crown Prince Dai Yang back then, whom he only knew as Lo Yi, he nodded.
“Yes brother, it’s fun”
Bai Ying was about to pull his hand away when someone grabbed it and pulled it from Lo Yi’s grip. The youth widened his eyes, it is Crown Prince Luo Xiang.
“Your Majesty”
Luo Xiang took Bai Ying’s hand and shifted Lo Yi, moving from his place, his eyes fixed on the man who had been repeatedly impudent behind him.
Luo Xiang pushed Lo Yi’s chest back.
“My Ying Ying, it’s noon already, and we’ve been out here for too long, aren’t you feeling tired?” asked Luo Xiang turning his back to Lo Yi.
Bai Ying nodded.
“Yes, Your Majesty, I am getting tired, does Your Majesty’s business is finished?” he asked.
Fan er and Lan er got up from their seats and approached Lo Yi who looked awkward in his place.
“Eh, Your Highness the Crown Prince, please sit here, let’s enjoy a lot of food here, the air is quite hot, here, there is a cold drink of fresh fruit,” said Fan Er inviting Lo Yi to sit on a chair not far besides them.
Lo Yi didn’t want to move away at first, but it seemed that the two concubines were pushing him so that Crown Prince Luo Xiang could take Bai Ying away.
“Come, please Your Highness.”
Luo Xiang took Bai Ying’s hand and got up from his seat.
“But Your Majesty, all the food here is delicious, Ying hasn’t gotten to the end of it yet,” Bai Ying said.
Luo Xiang turned to Bai Ying’s two maids, Yan and Bi.
“You guys just bring snacks that Ying Ying hasn’t had time to enjoy to the pavilion, it’s better just to enjoy them there.”
The two maids lowered their knees.
“Yes, Your Majesty”
Every now and then Bai Ying still looked at Lo Yi who had no choice but to follow the invitation of the two beautiful concubines.
“Your Majesty, did Your Majesty know who brother Lo Yi is? Ying means, that Crown Prince of Dai Yang?” he asked when he and the Crown Prince had drifted away from Lo Yi’s place.
Luo Xiang took Bai Ying’s hand, gripping it tightly.
“He’s just the Crown Prince of a neighbouring country, do I have to be intimately acquainted with him?”
Bai Ying frowned.
“Emm, that’s not what I mean, at least Your Majesty know him, according to sister Lan er and sister Fan er, before when he was younger, the Crown Prince and other Princes used to visit the palace every year, surely Your Majesty knows him well, right?” he asked again.
Luo Xiang didn’t answer, of course, he knew him well enough, Crown Prince Lo Yi and other princes who were the same age as him and his older brother Luo Yan, who used to frequent the palace, and often bullies him, he couldn’t possibly forget that person.
...
Night comes.
The warm air around the Peony valley blew to the West Dragon pavilion.
In the bathroom.
The maids stood by the wall, Yan holds Bai Ying’s bathrobe while Bi was the Crown Prince’s. Meanwhile, the fragrance of flowers mixed with perfumed oil poured in a tub of water wafted far away, and drifted low on the wooden shiny floor of the large bathroom with the big luxurious bathtub in the centre.
Bai Ying and Luo Xiang were still soaking in the bath with hot steam that seemed to be billowing up until the surroundings became a bit foggy.
Luo Xiang was inside with Bai Ying leaning on him.
“We’ve been soaking for a long time Ying Ying, are you still not going to finish it, didn’t you say you were very sleepy earlier?” Luo Xiang whispered, brushing Bai Ying’s hair behind his ear, lowering his head to kiss Bai Ying’s cheek.
Bai Ying clasped the Crown Prince’s large palm in front of his chest.
“Em, Your Majesty, has Your Majesty heard that Her Majesty the Queen has invited Your Majesty’s future concubine to the event?”
Luo Xiang frowned, squeezed Bai Ying’s soft palm, lifted it slowly and kissed it.
“Chup”
“Ying, where did you hear that?” Luo Xiang asked.
Bai Ying was about to turn around, but the Crown Prince’s embrace was too tight for him to be able to move much.
“Em, from Sister Fan er, Ying also thought, Her Majesty the Queen will do it sooner or later. Just look at His Majesty the Emperor, his concubines reach tens of people, I don’t know how many, Ying never count them”
“There are sixty-three people” Luo Xiang replied.
Hearing that Bai Ying turned his head, finally straightening his body and turning to look at the face of the Crown Prince with a pair of big round eyes.
“Really? That much? That, is it that much, Your Majesty?” Bai Ying asked, maybe he heard it wrong, he looked at his fingers and started counting.
“Sixty-three, at least once every two months, then if they have kids, one per concubine or two, then His Majesty’s kids should reach hundreds, wow, that’s a lot”
Luo Xiang raised Bai Ying’s hand, and couldn’t stop kissing it to the wrist, up to Bai Ying’s bare arms and shoulders.
“Chup Chup”
“Your Highness” Bai Ying who looked serious didn’t even seem to respond.
Luo Xiang looked at Bai Ying’s eyes that looked at him for a long time, waiting for his response.
“Then, did Ying Ying think, Big brother would also have that many concubines?”
Bai Ying nodded quickly, his pair of big round eyes looked at Luo Xiang intently.
Luo Xiang smiled, he raised his two hands pulled Bai Ying’s body back against him, and hugged him tightly, lowering his head on the young man’s shoulder.
“Heh, unfortunately, being the Emperor is like that, the Queen Mother thought, Father is a gentleman, it takes a lot of activities that make him forget the pressure of his work, and because of that, the Queen Mother thought, having a concubine also made her free from responsibilities once time because there is no need to serve him all the time. But, how can big brother feel bored and depressed, when I have my Ying Ying by my side? How can I have another concubine after just one Ying Ying is not enough for me to enjoy.”
Bai Ying squirmed in amusement as the Crown Prince’s chin which was covered with a bit of coarse hair brushed against his shoulder.
“Ah Your Majesty, it tickles, hasn’t Your Majesty shaved yet?”
Luo Xiang smiled, he can’t get enough of hugging Bai Ying tightly to the point that he won’t let him go, even a bit. The Crown Prince kissed Bai Ying’s cheek, after which he couldn’t satisfy his turbulent feelings yet, he bit the soft tip of Bai Ying’s ear.
“Your Majesty”
Luo Xiang smiled, his pure white teeth lined up neatly still trying to bite Bai Ying’s ear which looked very delicious.
Luo Xiang finally retracted his head, holding Bai Ying’s two hands in front of his chest, squeezing gently.
“Heh, let Mother do as she pleases, a few more concubines won’t make any changes either, Ying Ying knows what will happen to them in the palace right?”
