CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

Brukk!

The two young masters who had come with ShiShen earlier came to help, both of them attacked SuLang at the same time.

“He’s seeking for death!”

ShiShen stood up, with a limp from SuLang’s hit which was quite hard, the young man straightened his body, he was furious beyond measure.

“You know who I am? I’m the Young Minister of Defense, offending me is the same as offending the palace, I will tell everyone that you took my position by force after hurting me here and chased after Prince ChenMing to go together to XiaoWu forest, do you think no one will notice your rottenness ?” cried ShiShen.

SuLang so easily dropped the two young men earlier, SuLang smiled, what is he doing? Serving spoiled kids like them in broad daylight like this? He was really stupid.

“Please, just say what you like, Young Master Shi, I have no interest in anything you do”

SuLang flicked his clothes, looked at young master Shi and pulled his lips up into a grin, that grin, made ShiShen gulp down his saliva, usually master Young Su would grin like that when he won something, and what now, young master Su was teasing him?

.....

SuLang turned his body towards the candy seller who was fortunately quite far from the battle area, but the fight didn’t end there. The furious young master Shi drew his gleaming sword and charged back towards SuLang.

“You’re a shameless snake, feel this!”

ShiShen stomped his foot and jumped behind SuLang, attacking him just as SuLang turned his body against the sword with his spear, the sound of two sharp weapons clashing was loud.

“Ting!”

SuLang looked at ShiShen who was being held in front of him.

“Young master Shi, that’s enough, stop your silliness” SuLang’s voice was flat and deep. ShiShen put one foot back pushing his sword as far as he could attack SuLang.

“You the one who’s silly, young master Su, who do you think you are talking to right now? A little useless guard like you”

SuLang smirked again.

“Hehe, you really are so funny”

ShiShen was about to push his sword but didn’t expect SuLang’s strength to be so great, the young man was different from the last time they fought, he didn’t even budge, his legs were still straight with a slight stance, not like he had expended most of his strength.

SuLang ended the battle that had only taken up his time, pushing young master Shi hard so that he fell to the ground.

“Brukk!”

ShiShen fell down very embarrassingly.

SuLang again approached the shaped candy merchant, just as the horse-drawn carriage group passed the main road that made all the residents move away from the middle of the road.

“Klop klop klop”

The entourage of the Crown Prince and ChenMing, in the sparkling outfits typical of the XinHua and YueYang palaces, followed by a large golden carriage and a small cargo carriage behind him, the citizens bowed their heads in respect as the group passed, including ShiShen who still sit on the ground, his friends helped to pull him off the street after being dropped by SuLang earlier.

The group stopped their way for a moment, especially ChenMing, who was now in front of ShiShen who couldn’t believe what he was seeing. Without thinking ShiShen and the two young masters immediately knelt down.

“Sincerely Your Highness Prince” ShiShen tried to raise his head to peek as ChenMing didn’t make a sound. The young prince looked at ShiShen for a moment.

“Young master Shi, you here? Do have a trip walk from SuiLian?” Chen Ming asked.

ShiShen nodded, surely very proud that Prince Chen greeted him and even asked him.

“That’s right, Your Majesty, we are on a humanitarian mission, after hearing the news about CuiAn, we have come to help.”

The two young masters who were kneeling beside him nodded.

“That’s right Your Majesty”

SuLang approached the carriage carrying the sweets he had bought back.

ShiShen peeked at what the young master was doing, knocked on the carriage window and someone stretched his hand out, resembling a woman’s hand.

“Your Highness, I have bought it” one of the maids inside the carriage took candy from SuLang’s hand.

“Thank you, Young Master Su” and it was BaiYing’s voice.

ChenMing pulled his lips away. Since his younger brother was so eager to eat melted candy, Young Master Su offered to buy it, so he ran to the seller before the carriage passed, but, see what commotion he made, only for bought one melted candy.

ChenMing pulled his reins back into the line.

“Come on Young Master Su, we must arrive at SuiLian before nightfall, must not delay the trip” ChenMing exclaimed.

Su Lang nodded. The young man approached his horse and mounted it.

ShiShen retreated back as the group passed him, SuLang went to SuiLian? What, he went to the palace too? Before ShiShen could think too long, another voice came from ChenMing.

“Oh yeah, Young Master Shi, you better head back to the palace soon, there will be a rematch for the position of Young Minister of Defense, you shouldn’t be late” ChenMing exclaimed.

ShiShen’s eyes widened, unable to believe what he just heard.

“W-what does it mean, Your Majesty?”

...

Before they left SuChou, ChenMing sat in the living room of the Su family with SuPing and SuLang sitting in front of them.

Near by the window, Crown Prince sitting so relaxed enjoying his tea with BaiYing, the two of them didn’t seem to want to know about anything else around them because in their world there were only the two of them.

“Em, this is delicious, it has a taste,” said the Crown Prince, opening the sunflower’s seed shell for BaiYing.

The youth nodded, his mouth was already full of food but Crown Prince didn’t stop thrusting it into his mouth.

“Hehehe my YingYing eating like a rabbit, you’re so cute” Crown Prince exasperatedly pinched BaiYing’s cheeks.

BaiYing swallowed his food quickly.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty hasn’t said what’s make Your Majesty is late to pick up Ying’er, said it would only take two days? What two days? Ying thought Your Majesty had forgotten about Ying’er” the youth rounded his mouth.

LuoXiang smiled, he didn’t stop stroking BaiYing’s hair who was sitting very close to him, lowering his head to smell the long reddish hair’s scent.

“Hemh, it’s because of that rotten Emperor, at the last moment he still asked me to receive a state guest, and that state guest stayed for a long time, it feels like a very long time”

“Oh, Ying thought His Majesty would not come again, oh well, speaking of which, Grandma has already sent out invitations for XinHua’s first state guests, according to grandmother this tradition is usually done for every young Prince who will become King, and according to grandmother every Viceroy must have more than one bed, Ying didn’t understand what Grandmother means about more than one bed, when Ying asked her, she just laughed.”

Hearing that Crown Prince widened his eyes, he thought he knows what it meant.

“Your grandmother said that? Is that old granny no longer looking at my face anymore?”

BaiYing frowned at Crown Prince’s furrowed brows with a pair of sharp eyes looking the other way.

“Your Majesty, does Your Majesty understand what it means? Ying really likes to sleep, I do think about having more than one bed won’t be a problem, take it as changing the atmosphere if we’re bored, hehehe.”

Crown Prince turned his head, glared at BaiYing and pinched the boy’s cheek hard.

“This brat”

“Awww! Its hurt, Your Majesty, why did Your Majesty have to pinch me instead?”

LuoXiang really wanted to pinch that stupid kid again, to his heart’s content.

“Yes, because YingYing is so stupid, why do you need so many beds for? Is it one is not enough?”

BaiYing touched his cheeks which were red from the Crown Prince’s pinch.

“Well, the palace is big, Your Majesty, there are lots of empty beds, it’s a shame if we don’t use it to sleep.”

“Are you really wanting to enjoy all of those beds?”

BaiYing frowned, thinking, is there any tricks behind The Crown Prince’s question?

“Em, yes, once in a while it’s fine, Your Majesty, um, Ying’s bed is the most comfortable, soft, warm, spacious”

“Well, of course, your bed is the best, do you need to look at another bed?” The Crown Prince’s voice was a bit loud.

“Your Majesty, what’s the matter with finding another bed, why are you sound angry? It’s very strange, this is just in case if the old bed starts to feel uncomfortable to sleep on” the innocent child looked at the Crown Prince who had been holding back anger which make his face red with a strange look, while the Crown Prince really refrained from pinching the child again.

“Of course, I am, stupid boy! Just watch out if you look for another bed”

“This Your Highness! It’s just a matter of bed, why are you so fierce?”

Finally, the Crown Prince couldn’t hold himself back and pinched the boy’s cheek again hard.

“Oh, this kid!”

“Your Majesty it’s hurt!”
