CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

96 As planned?

His maids, Yan and Bi, were a little worried to see the somewhat rude treatment of concubine Lui who suddenly came and shouted loudly.

“Your Majesty, please understand the condition of Her Majesty Concubine Hua, she is not feeling well, so, um” Fan’er turned to Bi who spoke to her, that lowly maid dared to advise her, Bi bowed her head deeply, Fan’er’s gaze was very scary, still remembered clearly how the concubine had punished her and Yan without flinching.

“Forgive this servant, Your Majesty”

Fan’er didn’t want to hear it, she grabbed BaiYing’s hand forcing him to stand up.

“Young Sister Yen, don’t you hear me?” Her hand violently grabbed BaiYing’s hand until he stood up and staggered backward, almost falling if it weren’t for his maids holding him.

“Your Majesty”

BaiYing did not expect that Concubine Lui to be so rude, just as that woman was about to step forward to grab BaiYing’s hand, a voice came from the gate.

“Her Majesty the Queen has arrived!”

LuiFan’s eyes widened, how could the Queen be there today? Who knows how many people are surprised by the Queen’s sudden visit everywhere today.

.....

“Greetings Your Majesty”

The Queen approached LuiFan who lowered her body to greet her, then to BaiYing who was standing next to his maids, it seemed that something very exciting had just happened.

“Em Fan’er, what are you doing here? Did you come to ask for masks and scrubs too?” he asked.

LuiFan stuttered, he glanced at BaiYing and nodded slowly.

“Eh, yes, Your Majesty, I am also here to check on Yen’er’s sister condition, what a coincidence to meet Your Majesty the Queen here.”

The Queen approached BaiYing, helping the young concubine to stand up.

“Uh, of course, I also have to meet my son’s concubine right, er, Yen’er comes here, I’ve run out of face masks, look at how my pretty face has turned like this, did you keep it in your house?” whispered the Queen holding BaiYing’s hand towards the mansion.

BaiYing shook his head.

“Em no Your Majesty, but, I think I can make more.”

The Queen’s entourage and BaiYing’s maid entered the mansion, her face brightened after hearing BaiYing’s answer.

“Oh really? Can you make it? So what we’ve waited for”

BaiYing nodded.

“Yes Your Majesty”

Fan’er was still left outside the mansion, watching Queen holds Concubine Hua’s hand and move inside, she’s frowning deeply.

“She said she was crazy, then how can she still able to make the face masks? This strange”

Without thinking too long she also rushed into the house.

“Your Majesty, I want to make one too!”

........

Another very sunny morning at the Eagle Pavilion.

BeiYau approached the Crown Prince who was sitting in front of his desk, another morning with a pile of work always waiting for him.

The young guard lowered his head in front of the Crown Prince who looked quite serious reading his daily report.

“Then, how is it Bei? have you taken care of everything?”

“Yes Your Majesty, everything works as planned”

The Crown Prince flipped the report.

“Don’t leave anything behind Bei, I don’t our plan failed because of a small mistake, I’ve been waiting too long for this”

BeiYau nodded.

“Yes Your Majesty”

The Crown Prince waved his hand, he glanced at CiaoTi and the administrative officer to tidy up the documents he had finished studying and leave them alone.

Crakk.

The door closed from the outside, BeiYau approached the Crown Prince.

“Your Majesty, does, tonight Your Majesty will go back to the Lili Pavilion?”

The Crown Prince nodded his head.

“Well, where else is Bei? That place has become quite a comfortable place these couple of days. If I don’t go there, where will I go? Back to the Plum Pavilion?”

BeiYau restrained himself.

“Um that”

The Crown Prince stood up from his seat, pulling his waist a bit longer.

“Tonight, don’t be late Bei, I can die miserably if you take too long, like last night, I almost went crazy”

BeiYau nodded, he followed the Crown Prince towards the door, occasionally scratching the back of his head, this was the strangest job he had ever done in his life, but for the sake of His Highness the Crown Prince, he must be able to carry it out well.

The two of them exited the Eagle pavilion followed by the maids and young bodyguards.

“Then, tonight, what should I do?”

The Crown Prince thought hard, his forehead furrowed deeply.

“Em, there’s a small food storehouse behind the mansion, I think you can use it, the air is really cold these days, but because of strong winds the fire can spread quickly, look at this humidity level”

BeiYau understood the meaning of the Crown Prince’s words.

“I understand Your Majesty”

Shortly after, towards midnight, in one corner at the Lili pavilion.

“Fire! Fire!” the young servants and guards ran to each other to get water to extinguish the fire that suddenly burned the dry food storehouse in one corner of the pavilion.

A fire that came from nowhere and spread in a very short time, concubine Ye wearing her night robes ran out from her mansion to see what happened, her eyes widened as she saw one of the warehouses where she kept her dry food burned like a fireball that lit up in the middle of the dark night.

“What happened? Quickly put out the fire, what are you guys doing!” concubine Ye looked panicked, she grabbed the maids hand who was standing behind her and kicked her towards the building which was engulfed in flames, whatever was in the room was of course very important to make concubine Ye look so angry.

“Quickly put out the fire!”

...

The sound of owls in the valley behind the Peony Gardens was heard far and wide in all directions of the palace, the strong wind blew the banners above the guard towers that stood firmly in every corner of the Crown Prince’s palace, the large bodies of the night guards on duty at every gate of the pavilion, including in the Plum pavilion which was very quiet that night.

Crakk.

The sound of the door opening from outside.

The room was already dark, slowly the heavy footsteps entered as carefully so as not disturb anyone who’s sleeping on the bed, who else if not BaiYing, the bed was a bit swaying, BaiYing was still sleeping soundly, someone had climbed onto the bed and hugged his waist from behind.

“My Heh YingYing, I missed you so much” the voice of the Crown Prince, who was already lying down hugged BaiYing from behind very tightly.

BaiYing opened his eyes, he was very sleepy and it was probably already dawn, why did this person come and disturb his sleep?

BaiYing turned his body, looked very closely at the Crown Prince who had closed his eyes, raised his hand to touch the young man’s forehead who looked so tired.

LuoXiang opened his eyes, looked at the young man very closely for a long time, pulling his body to kiss BaiYing’s cheek gently.

“Chup, do you miss me?”

The Crown Prince raised his hand to stroke BaiYing’s hair, sniffing the scents of BaiYing’s hair and neck which he missed so badly that he couldn’t breathe because of it, he had been holding back for so long, it felt like too long.

“Did Your Majesty enjoy it? Stays overnight at the Lili Pavilion?”

BaiYing’s question made the Crown Prince stop his movements, he pulled his lips to see BaiYing’s gaze at him, did he scold him? Why do his eyes look so scary?

“Em that” The Crown Prince scratched the back of his head.

“Em YingYing didn’t know how much I tried to endure it”

“Endure it? Why does Your Majesty have to? From what I saw, Your Majesty seems to quite enjoying it.”

The Crown Prince tried to sulk with his cute puppy face.

“You know it’s not true my YingYing, every second feels so long and it hurts so much because I always think about you, how could I do that if not for you”

Before the Crown Prince’s words were finished, BaiYing threw his hand against the Crown Prince’s chest.

“Go away, you reek of concubine Ye’s perfume.”

BaiYing pushed the Crown Prince’s body so hard that LuoXiang almost lost his balance and fell off the bed.

“Y-YingYing, er, bu-but I miss you”

The young man looked at the Crown Prince with his sharp gaze, then pulled the blanket and snuggled into it.

.....

“Go and clean yourself first, you stink.”

The Crown Prince tried to pull the boy’s blanket and get into it, but BaiYing held it.

“YingYing, don’t do this, I’ll just take a bath tomorrow okay, I’m so tired and miss you so much”

The Crown Prince tried to pull the blanket from BaiYing’s head to kiss him, but the boy kept covering it even disappearing completely in his blanket and holding it tight.

“Go and clean your body first, you stink, Your Majesty just sleep outside alone”

The Crown Prince was still trying to sulk.

“YingYing, my YingYing!”

“Just go away!”

“Ach YingYing”

And the sounds of night owls can be heard in the distance of Peony valley.

Kukkukkkk kukkkkkk!

The Crown Prince’s sulking voice was even heard outside the room where there were two little maids Yan and Bi standing at the door trying to hold back their smiles.
