218 Back To the Palace

A while ago, after the Emperor received a letter from LuoXiang saying he would be home soon and bring BaiYing who is none other than the Viceroy of WahYe, imagine how shocked he would be to find out that the concubine he had admired so much is a boy, how come, a very sweet and cute concubine, who makes him sleepless, doesn’t have an appetite to eat, is a boy? Imagine how angry he was.

“That brat, just watches out when he comes home, I won’t allow him with Concubine Hua, no matter how I will separate them, what will the future of this country be if the Crown Prince does not have children, this can’t be allowed!”

The Queen pursed her lips, she knew that the Emperor she knew would not be able to punish a child as sweet as Concubine Hua.

“I’ll think about it later.”

“Forgive this servant, Your Majesty, but, what will Your Majesty do? Then, in the meantime, how should I deal with that sweetie? Heh, this is going to be very awkward.”

The Emperor took a deep breath, actually, he wished he could hold the gentle hand of concubine Hua which he missed so much, actually, he was really angry that his beloved son didn’t tell him, but that wasn’t what annoyed him, he was annoyed about how could that rotten kid get such a sweet and adorable concubine like that.

.....

Meanwhile, LuoXiang was walking leisurely towards the Crown Prince’s palace, holding BaiYing who was being pulled behind him, the boy seemed to have a bit of difficulty walking because of his oversized clothes which made him almost trip over a few times.

“Your Majesty, what, His Majesty the Emperor and Queen already know about me?”

.....

“What do they know?” he asked.

“Well, what else, if servant is a boy”

“Em, maybe they are, maybe they don’t, just let it be, what can that old man do anyway?”

LuoXiang pulled BaiYing’s hand closer and hooked it on his arm.

“Hemh, YingYing must be looking forward to taking a bath right? Erm I’ll rub your back”

BaiYing smiled, his face blushing, the Crown Prince stared at him very closely with his mischievous smile.

“Your Majesty, they will hear us”

“Then? Let it be, does YingYing still embarrassed?”

BaiYing tried to push LuoXiang’s head which was very close to him.

“Your Majesty please watch your steps”

“Indeed, I watched my steps, it’s on your heart right?”

That cheesy words could actually come out from this honorable Prince’s mouth.

LuoXiang was very happy, he couldn’t hide his feelings, no matter what, he held onto BaiYing’s hand very tightly until now, no storm of any kind of disaster could separate them, he firmly believed that.

“Hehehe my YingYing, I’m so tired, let’s go back to our room and have a rest ok?” He coddled BaiYing’s waist and hugged him, BaiYing smiled.

“Heh, of course, Your Majesty, let’s go back and rest”

BeiYau and ShinYa who were walking behind the two took a glance, seeing the love that seemed to be showing from the heads of the two birds in front of them, making BeiYau remember about someone while holding the jade pendulum hanging from his waist, heh, when will he meet him again?

...

Back at Plum Pavilion, all the maids had prepared a festive welcome for the Crown Prince and BaiYing, including Lan’er and Fan’er who didn’t want to be left behind, BaiYing couldn’t resist when his older sisters threw a small party for him, along with Yan and Bi who couldn’t stop their cried to see their concubine finally come home safely.

“Huks Your Majesty, thank goodness”

Both of them looked normal, BaiYing thought, as they said they suffered a lot after he’s been missing, both of them and the other maids looked in very good state and even a little fatter since the last time.

“You guys must be didn’t do anything while I’m gone, right? Just eat and sleep, sister Yan, look at your cheeks, it’s getting chubby”

Yan held her cheek, she and Bi looked at each other.

“You too sister Bi, look at your belly!” continued BaiYing, he puffed his mouth seeing the fact that his maids weren’t worried about him at all.

“Heh, said you guys were worried, I can’t believe you guys”

“Your Majesty, that’s is the true, I and Bi are so worried about Your Majesty, every day we cooked Your Majesty’s favorite dishes, prepare them so that when Your Majesty comes back Your Majesty can immediately eat it, but Your Majesty did not, so we have to finish them off”

Bi nodded with Yan’s words.

“That’s right Your Majesty, Your Majesty has reminded us to we never waste food, but the other maids were very reluctant to eat it, so we had to finish it all, ems, Your Majesty doesn’t know how much we suffer, we have to eat that much every day”

BaiYing glanced at the two with sharp eyes, do not believe their stories are too far-fetched.

“Lies, how can that be, you must be so happy while I’m not around”

While BaiYing’s voice scolding his servants filled the room, Lan’er and Fan’er were busy unpacking the gifts BaiYing had brought for them.

“Wow, this one is really good, look at this sis, the pattern is so delicate.” Lan’er took out a large red dress which BaiYing thought was for her, while Fan’er also got another beautiful dress, in light purple, and yellow.

“This too, very beautiful, Yen’s sister knows our taste very well.”

Lan’er smiled, she almost choked with her laughter realizing that now it was only Fan’er who didn’t know that Concubine Hua was a boy, well, who told her?

“Hehehe yeah, little Yen’er does have a very good taste”

Yan and Bi were busy persuading BaiYing who had an annoyed face, circling after him around the room.

“Your Majesty, tonight, let Bi massage your feet, well, you must be very tired after having a long walk.”

“No need, I have someone to massage me already”

“Em, how about Yan make red sweet potato ginseng soup, it must be very healthy for the body, servant also had prepared very good herbs from the palace health experts specifically for Your Majesty, later I will make a little bit sweeter for Your Majesty”

“No, I’m not in the mood to eat red sweet potatoes”

“Your Majesty!”

“What’s wrong with little Yen? Sulked like that” asked Fan’er who saw BaiYing and his maids circling around in the room.

“Well, what’s more, it’s like you don’t even know XiaoYing, he’s still a kid, always gets so easy to grumpy”

“Hey, that kid”

...

While LuoXiang had to report on the results of his journey, to save BaiYing and the stories about the revival of WahYe, which initially greatly disturbed the Emperor and others, because according to history, WahYe was a magical country with extraordinary mystical abilities, who could have guessed that one of the Crown Prince’s concubines turned out to be the Viceroy of that country.

And what’s more, that little concubine had been deceiving everyone for almost this year as a girl.

“Can not! I don’t agree!” said the Emperor in a high tone, his voice somewhat startled LuoXiang and the Empress who were enjoying their tea and almost spew the tea which already in their mouths.

“Oh startling me, Your Majesty.” The Queen put her teacup slowly on the table. Glancing at LuoXiang who’s looking at the Emperor with his very sharp eyes.

“What do you mean Father? What’s makes Father disagree?”

The emperor turned to his son, not expecting his son’s gaze to be so sharp as if he was ready to chew on him.

“Ahem, well, because, your sweet concubine has been deceiving us all this time, while I thought he was a very sweet gentle little girl”

The Queen rolled her eyes, Emperor really deserves an award for his acting this time, he even put his innocent face while talking about how he become the victim, he’s ain’t like he before the Crown Prince and His sweet Concubine come home.

“Heh”

LuoXiang lifted his teacup, stirring it slowly to absorb the fragrance.

“Well, then it can’t be helped, my YingYing is really cute right?”

“Does, he really is Viceroy of WahYe?” asked the Emperor.

“According to Father? What could be faked out of that?”

“Em, so, he also, what is the legend of WahYe said, as a Master of the Dragon?”

LuoXiang frowned thinking, well, it could say that since BaiYing holds so much power over the ErWang Dragon.

“Em yeah, I think so”

The Emperor widened his eyes, stroking his chin couldn’t hide his admiration.

“Wow, this is great, with your little concubine alone that country can rule the land, this is so great”

But, the Emperor put on his serious face again.

“But I still don’t agree”

“What will Father do about it? If with YingYing’s current position, Father still doesn’t agree? Then, Father wants to throw him back to WahYe? Are you willing to take the risk that will happen next? I saw it myself, with my own eyes, how great the country is, to be honest, with all the strength that YueYang currently has, and maybe later, still won’t be able to defeat the small country that dragon ErWang’s protected.” LuoXiang said it while keep rolling his eyes.

“Eh I see..”

LuoXiang nodded.

“Eh well, but, even so, I still disagree, um, what if, for a while, at least until I agree, concubine Hua, stay in the Emperor’s palace, there is still an empty pavilion in the palace, he will be very comfortable in his detention with lots of maids and good food accompanied him, so...”

Ceklek.

LuoXiang put his teacup a little hard on the table, stopped the Emperor’s word,

He realizes LuoXiang’s gaze getting sharper on him.

“This perverted Emperor”

.....

The Empress grabbed her teacup back while enjoying some of the snacks LuoXiang had brought as hand carry, all very delicious dried fruit candied.

“This is delicious Xiang’er, did you bring it more?”

Luo Xiang nodded.

“Of course Mother, YingYing brought a lot, he said that Mother will like it”

“Ich that very sweet kid”

The Emperor glanced at his son and Queen who seemed to ignore him.

“Ehem, Xiang’er, what do you think? Does my idea is acceptable?”
