234 Un-Important matters

“Y-Your Highness”

The man didn’t say anything but just kept quiet and pulled him inside.

Soon after that.

In the living room, LuoXiang was enjoying the tea the maid served and having a serious conversation with BeiYau and the others. While BaiYing who was sitting beside him occasionally looked at him with innocent eyes, he didn’t really understand what was going on, but this must have been a huge problem when Lord ShinYa entered the pavilion this afternoon and reported the attack on the SanPo city exit gate, and someone died, none other than the young Prince of NuMen, of course, everyone will rightly accuse the Crown Prince of doing it. That person was almost rightly killed by his own hands for harassing him.

BaiYing grabbed LuoXiang’s hand which was on the table, while that person was still speaking seriously, occasionally LuoXiang glanced at him, and held his hand tightly.

.........

Night comes.

The silence of the Crown Prince’s palace that he liked so much. BaiYing was lying on his bed beside the Crown Prince who was still holding his hand. BaiYing slowly shifted his body, spreading his arms around LuoXiang’s big body, who moved his head to kiss his forehead.

“What is YingYing thinking?”

.....

“Is this going to be a big problem, Your Majesty? The murder of the NuMen Prince, whoever did it but the King and everyone else might have thought that the culprit was His Majesty, this is very troubling, I hear, the NuMen is full of big and strong people, they could finish off YueYang’s soldiers easily if they attacked”

LuoXiang stroked back Baiying who was in his arms.

“No matter what, they are out of number compares to YueYang soldiers, BeiYau and his men, as well as many YueYang warriors, are trained to fight enemies who are much stronger than them.”

“But, that means the country will go to war, and, there might be a lot of casualties, this, shouldn’t have happened if it weren’t because of me”

LuoXiang raised his head, looked at BaiYing’s sad face for a moment, then flicked his forehead.

“Aww, it hurts Your Majesty.”

BaiYing raised his head to look at LuoXiang with sharp eyes. But the Crown Prince’s gaze was sharper than he’s.

“You, are you so great as to cause the war? You really look at yourself so highly.”

BaiYing puffed out his mouth.

“Well if it weren’t for me, Your Majesty wouldn’t have hurt that prince, then, if it not because of that they wouldn’t have left the palace earlier and attacked by the enemy”

“Then, do you think I should just let that filthy person touch you?”

“Y-Yes, no! Umm, not really, em, at least Your Majesty wouldn’t be so harsh on him if it weren’t because of me”

“After all that person deserves to be punished, just being killed isn’t enough, at least to be cut into pieces”

BaiYing got up quickly and shut his son’s mouth Crown with his hands.

“Your Majesty must not speak like that, someone will hear you.”

LuoXiang’s eyes glared at BaiYing, he lifted BaiYing’s hand from his mouth.

“Just let everyone hear! Who dares? The person who touches you indecently deserves the death penalty, this is still too good for him”

BaiYing restrained himself, he wanted to shut the Crown Prince’s mouth again but LuoXiang grabbed both of his hands, got up, and threw BaiYing’s body onto the bed with himself on his top. For a moment, the two of them stared at each other for a long time, BaiYing swallowed hard, clearly, the Crown Prince’s large body prevented him from moving let alone escaping, but, why run away again, now it’s not like before where he was so afraid of that person, now, he gave up himself to him.

“Your Majesty”

LuoXiang lowered his head, speaking so close to BaiYing that he could kiss his lips.

“Your lips are red and sweet, I’d want just focus and think about this, rather than any unimportant matters”

“B-but, this is important, Your Majesty, it concerns our country’s peacefulness.”

LuoXiang kissed BaiYing’s cheek, then his lips.

“For that matter, Father has secretly ordered the evacuation of the residents which are near the King NuMen and entourages’ temporary compound, if necessary all residents are prohibited from going out and only doing activities inside the house.”

BaiYing raised his hand, caressed LuoXiang’s cheek, looking into his deep eyes. looked at him, then tilted his head to let the Crown Prince kiss his lips.

“Your Majesty, servant, will do anything to help, we will fight together if one day those people come to attack”

LuoXiang nodded, he opened his big palm to hold BaiYing’s two cheeks and kissed it more contentedly.

“And I, will never let anyone’s dirty hands touch you, they deserve to die, my YIngYing is only for me”

.....

Bukk Bukk bukk!

The sound of fast footsteps from outside the room startled LuoXiang who immediately woke up from his sleep, it was already morning again.

“Report Your Highness!” cried BeiYau’s voice outside the room.

LuoXiang got up, pulled off the blanket and lowered his two legs from the bed, grabbed his robe, and put them on as he rushed to the door.

“Bei, why are you making such a fuss so early in the morning?”

LuoXiang glanced at the bed where BaiYing was still fast asleep on his bed, then closed the door tightly.

BeiYau lowered his body in salute for a while, then stood up while bowing his head.

“Forgive me, Your Majesty, there was an attack from outside the gates of SanPo city, several guard posts were burnt down by the soldiers from NuMen, and, their number was double up from the previous day”

LuoXiang’s eyes widened, how did those people dare to attack the city in front of the palace? Do they really against the palace?

“Why are their numbers growing so fast? Isn’t NuMen’s distance to here at least two days’ journey? With news to be delivered before they gather troops, it will take at least a few days”

“Report Your Majesty, out of nowhere but NuMen’s formidable troops have arrived at the city gates since early this morning, the gate guard soldiers had sent a message shortly after the people gathered in front. gate, they are making defenses outside”

LuoXiang frowned in thought.

“This seems to have been planned from the start, BeiYau wait for me, we will go to the Emperor’s palace and gather with others, tell lord ShinYa to stand guard here”

BeiYau lowered his head.

“Ready Your Majesty”

.............

YueYang Palace was in an uproar, large numbers of troops were lined up in the Dragon courtyard to receive their next instructions, Commander Gao and his troops, as well as General LinMo who had just returned to the palace after the task outside the borders had been prepared, all did not expect that there would be an attack on the capital but it happened.

“Ready!” Commander Gao exclaimed.

YueYang’s army which was currently formidable exclaimed in unison.

“Yes Sir!”

................

Meanwhile at the Plum pavilion.

The sun shines brightly.

It was warm enough that morning that BaiYing and FuLan decided to take a sunbath and enjoy the time sitting on their sloping chairs. FuLan who was enjoying a mask with cucumber slices turned to BaiYing who even though he was sitting with him seemed to be deep in thought until his forehead was furrowed.

“Brother, what are you thinking?”

BaiYing turned his head, pulling his lips.

“Hemh, don’t you feel that the atmosphere in the palace and YueYang is getting tenser now, Sis? Multiple guards, such a busy Crown Prince, heh, what, does this mean we are really going to have a big war?”

FuLan removed the cucumber slice from her face.

“Em, it’s a bit tense, but I believe in our very strong and great army, so those NuMen are just looking for a fuss with us, they are so stupid with short thinking against a country like this big, do they think they can win? Let alone winning, they should have thought about how to get out and safely return to their country”

BaiYing thought hard, it’s true, those people are really looking for death, don’t they think that their fight against YueYang will end up pitifully? But, those people couldn’t have come to this country on purpose without any preparation, could they?

BaiYing glanced at his maids who were standing not far behind him.

“Em sis Yan, please prepare my hunting clothes, I want to follow His Highness the Crown Prince to the Imperial Palace”

Hearing that the two little maids opened their eyes wide, even FuLan who was sitting beside him held BaiYing’s hand as the young man stood up.

“Brother what are you going to do? Don’t think anything weird, you can’t do anything to help right now.”

BaiYing stood up.

“Even though Sis, Ying’er should be there to help, at least provide support for His Majesty, he is very busy and didn’t even have time to enjoy his breakfast earlier.”

FuLan also stood up to hold BaiYing’s hand as he was about to head back home.

“You stupid child do you think your presence will change anything? The current state of the country doesn’t need a concubine to cheer up the Crown Prince.”

BaiYing lowered FuLan’s hand, staring at the girl for a moment.

“This time, Ying’er might come as Viceroy of WahYe”
