CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

220 Back in Routines.

In the Imperial Palace.

The imperial palace, state banners fluttering at the ends of high poles in every corner of the palace, strong wind with rumbling sounds, as the sun already on its place above the skies steadily.

Back to the routines, as the Crown Prince and other dignitaries attended the weekly meeting in the morning. LuoXiang was actually still reluctant to leave BaiYing, but becoming a disciplined Crown Prince was also his promise to him.

BeiYau stood alert not far at the back where the Crown Prince was sitting looking at the reports delivered by the ministers, in this very boring meeting, every minister will present their latest report. LuoXiang was curious about the reports from MaYang city and the very big problem that had never appeared in any reports, it’s the high-ranking, official Kuo who became the official who sorting the reports from each city including MaYang among them.

He was an old man, who might retire soon, LuoXiang knew him since childhood, the official was either too smart to never show his intelligence or stupidity, he worked flawlessly, there were a few mistakes that could still be forgiven but so far the man was very clean. And according to LuoXiang’s personal opinion, the old man was also not a person who liked to socialize and accumulate wealth for himself, a simple life without flaws was enough to satisfy him, so, he probably wasn’t one to hide the facts about MaYang City.

BeiYau raised his head when he saw the Crown Prince glancing at him, he came closer and lowered his head beside LuoXiang so that the Crown Prince could whisper to him.

“Did you see Mr. Shin this morning? Don’t let him sneak into the Plum pavilion.”

BeiYau refrained from laughing, thinking what the Crown Prince would say to him, he nodded.

“I saw Mr. Shin in his pavilion this morning, according to Your Majesty’s order, Mr. Shin is busy transcribing WahYe’s history in a book to be used as study material, I think he will be very busy all day”

.....

The Emperor who was so serious about receiving reports one by one his ministers occasionally glanced at his son, as usual, that stubborn child didn’t like sitting in morning meetings, he knew his ass was hot or there’s spike on the chair that make him wanted to get up from his seat immediately, this has happened since that sweet Concubine entered the palace. In the past the Crown Prince used to be so calm and restrained sitting in his place and could not move for quite some time.

“Ahem, carry on official Li”

The Emperor deliberately let out a loud voice for the Crown Prince to turn his head towards him.

LuoXiang turned his head, but he stared at his Father as if telling him what his business was with him? LuoXiang waved his hand at BeiYau who immediately straightened up and returned to his position.

Not long after, the meeting finally ended, all the officials slowly retreat, and out of the Dragon hall, the Crown Prince also was impatient to return to his palace, but the Emperor held his hand.

“Xiang’er, in a few days there will be a big guest visiting YueYang, remember you must join the welcoming party, bring your concubines along.”

The two of them walked slowly towards a table where they could sit down and talk more casually.

“Heh, Xiang’er just returned from the long trip, and still a lot of unfinished work waiting, this reception will definitely take all day, and, Father, are you sure you will receive the King of NuMen in YueYang? We know how the reputation of that country is for taking over the previous government by force, the ministers don’t really like Your idea”

NuMen, a small country in the eastern part of YueYang that never got along with the country around it, the small country was famous for its barbaric and dictatorial attitude and likes to oppress its own people, treats women very badly as if women are just sex slaves to the barbarian men there, that, ten years ago, the country tried to fix itself by making its people prosperous and giving low taxes for the past few years. The new government seems to be trying to make the country prosperous by trying to embrace the surrounding countries, previously NuMen had successfully cooperated with Tania and Kili, and now, trying to approach YueYang who previously tried to be neutral because it was the largest country among other small countries.

The emperor stroked his chin. He also thought about this seriously.

“Hemh, that’s what I thought too, but, there’s no harm in trying, lately NuMen has proven that the country is trying to change for the better”

LuoXiang rolled his eyes in another direction.

“It seems difficult Father, I have a bad feeling, heh, let see, if I have time Xiang’er will come, but, maybe I’ll come alone, how could I bring my concubine here, just imagining those people looking my YingYing with their eyes, I can’t promise that I won’t get out of hand.”

Hearing that the Emperor chuckled.

“Hehehehe Xiang’er, em, you have a point too, your concubine is so tempting after all.”

LuoXiang glanced at his father sharply.

“Father, don’t have strange thoughts about your own son-in-law”

“Hey this brat, why do you have to be so possessive of him?”

“Whatever, Father Xiang’er wants to go back to the palace, I still have a lot of work waiting there, and Father, don’t forget your promise to send an envoy to the city MaYang, the problem in the city is very serious.”

“I have sent a task force, this time it is official Xin who is in charge, he is very strong and willy, although his body is small, he will try to find ways to solve problems in that city, The first thing to do, of course, is to fire that governor, but, how could something this big happen without us knowing?”

LuoXiang thought, the problem is not just there, MaYang’s underground power is very strong, can the Emperor’s envoy solve the problem? This is quite worrying.

...

Fan’er stared at BaiYing and Lan’er for a moment, look at them with her big eyes, as if still not quite understand what the two of them were talking about earlier. The three of them enjoyed their leisurely meal while chatting in the Peach Pavilion after the painting class was over, Queen did not give BaiYing time to rest even though he had just returned from a long journey, and whether BaiYing was a boy or not, his status was that of one of the Crown Prince’s concubines, who had to attend classes and would eventually receive a graduation certificate for each class ended.

BaiYing’s big eyes looked at Fan’er, so did Lan’er.

“Sis Fan’er, are you alright?” Lan’er asked.

Fan’er opened her eyes wide as if awakening from a deep shock.

“How can I be okay? You want to say, that, all this time, Yen’s sister, was, a boy? This beautiful Yen’er? Lan’er, you just want to prank me don’t you?”

Lan’er glanced at BaiYing.

“XiaoYing, I told you, you have to take off your clothes” Lan’er naughty hand touched BaiYing’s collar to its under, the boy quickly dodged.

“Sister Lan’er”

Lan’er covered her mouth to hold back a laugh, BaiYing’s red face was so adorable, while Fan’er couldn’t digest what Lan’er and BaiYing just said, she stuffed the beans into her mouth with a confused face looking at the two concubines in front of her in turn.

“You must be joking, right? Did I’m so stupid that you guys have to trick me? Lan’er!”

Lan’er waved her hand.

“No Sis, who tricked you? XiaoYing, just take off your clothes” Lan’er hands tried to pull BaiYing’s clothes, the young man immediately stood up from his seat avoiding her.

“Akh sister, don’t, Sister, this is an embarrassment.”

While Lan’er stood chasing BaiYing, Fan’er stood after Lan’er.

“Sister Lan, you must be tricking me right? Both of you agreed to trick me, you guys are so naughty.”

Finally, a chase ensued between the three, Lan’er couldn’t help but laugh seeing BaiYing’s frightened face as his clothes being pulled by her, and Fan’er’s angry face because she felt cheated, Peach’s pavilion hall became very noisy with the three of them.

“Brother Ying quickly take off your clothes!:”

“Sis Lan’er stop it, leave Ying’er alone, Sister!”

.....

In the late afternoon, after finishing his work in the Eagle Hall, LuoXiang immediately walked over to BaiYing and led him back to Plum Pavilion, followed by BaiYing’s little maids and the Crown Prince who often followed him.

The beautiful late afternoon sun, the dull and boring days, as they loved so much, just hand in hand, walking slowly down the path leading to the pavilion. The distance from the Peach pavilion to the Plum pavilion is not that far, about two pavilions and around the road along the LuiHe lake, along the way, there is a beautiful refreshing view ready to spoil the eyes of all who pass through it. The Crown Prince’s Palace was indeed extraordinarily beautiful, with everything inside, let alone outside the palace where all difficulties and dangers often lurked, everything one wanted was already there, but, life outside the palace, they couldn’t help but think about, like what they just experienced in MaYang city, perhaps, other cities were like that too, so many people were suffering out there.

LuoXiang shifted BaiYing’s shoulder to him, lowering his head to see the young man who’s looking far with his serious face.

“What do you thinking about?”

“Em” BaiYing turned his head, he smiled.

“Heh, no Your Majesty, I was just thinking, this palace is so beautiful”
