275 Ghost?
âWhy do you want to talk about his sister? Iâve told you itâs none of our business.â
BaiYing looked at the Crown Prince seriously, looking at him for a moment.
âEm, I guess, I met that girl, whose name LiMei, as a ghostâ
Hearing that the Crown Princeâs pair of eyes widened, was the boy talking seriously or just teasing him? He was silent waiting for the continuation of his words, and it seemed the young man was serious.
âNow my YingYing can also talk to ghosts?â
BaiYing swallowed all the food in his mouth, he also thought while looking at the expression on the Crown Princeâs face which was very calm at that time.
âEm, Iâm not talking to a ghost but, I dreamed about it, and, I just wanted to make sure, whether, the dream was true, or just because part of my imaginationâ
Crown Prince finally lowered the empty bowl of porridge and placed it on the table beside him, looking at BaiYingâs face for a moment.
âJust stay in the room, let BeiYauâs men look for him, I will forbid you if you go thereâ
.....
BaiYing nodded quickly, he smiled broadly.
âHehehe alright, Your Majesty, Yingâer will just wait in the roomâ
....
In front of the main house.
The Crown Prince was seen standing in front of the terrace watching BeiYau and ChenMing train in the morning with his men. Elder Yi approached behind him, the young but old man spread his arms wide as he tugged at his sore waist after enjoying a very boring time for too long.
âHaahh, this waist is about to break offâ
Crown Prince turned his head, he saw the man from head to toe, a handsome-looking man with silver hair who was actually very old in age, but that old fox, he did look and act like a young man as his physical age.
âWhat is Your Majesty looking at like that to this servant? Is it something on my face?â Elder Yi touched his face, Crown Prince turned his head back, he realized been looking at that weird person for too long, he was just wondering if he really was the Great Master BaoYi who was famous for being the leader of the martial world sixty years ago.
The man who, he couldnât believe, was even standing next to him trying to act friendly towards him, not only with himself, but with everyone, he was indeed a man who liked to talk and gather in crowds.
âElder Yi has no plans to once again become the number one and lead the martial world?â asked the Crown Prince.
Elder Yi smiled, he lifted his head to look up where the sun was so bright that morning, the weather was perfect for enjoying the scenes.
âHeh, leading the martial world, Iâve been there, and, heh it feels so lonely, I wouldnât make the same mistake, being above is very cold, the wind is also quite strong thereâ
Crown Prince approached the chair and sat down, enjoying his morning tea, on the which two young palace maids often to serve him.
âYou can always control the weather and make it warm, why be afraid of the cold?â
Elder Yi chuckled, the man used to stroke his chin even though his chin was already smooth without the white beard he used to have.
âHehehe, still, a sense of loneliness exists, hehâ Elder Yi looked deep into the blue sky where large amount birds passed in groups, enjoying the warm air that was rare in those mountains.
âHeh, I want to travel, this world is very beautiful, maybe, visiting old friends, heh they have gone somewhere now, hehe, in the end, this old man will always be lonelyâ
LuoXiang took a sip of his tea, looked at the suddenly melancholic man for a moment, then put the teacup on the table again, he waved his hand asking his two little maids to leave them alone on the terrace.
The two young maids lowered their knees while retreating in an orderly fashion.
âYou know that your junior brother is still alive right? He was seriously injured and all of his energy was destroyed by YingYingâs white flames, but the savior coin saved his life, he is currently in XinHua palaceâ
Elder Yi turned his head, he came closer, flicking the back of his very wide and layered clothes, and sat slowly beside the Crown Princeâs chair.
The man reached for his teacup, took a sip before taking a small sip.
âHemh, this is very good tea, His Majesty must always have the bestâ
The Crown Prince again reached for his teacup.
âThereâs no doubt about it, I always get the best of everything in this world.â
Elder Yi chuckled again at the Crown Princeâs words.
âHehehe of course Your Majesty, Your Majesty will definitely say this includes your very sweet concubineâ
LuoXiang glanced at Elder Yi sharply, that masher had made him very jealous, everyone who was near BaiYing always wanted to approach him, that boy indeed has a very strong aura in attracting all the bees to come near him, but this time the bee is more like the flies.
âSoon everything will be prepared, according to your words, Elder Yi must not deny itâ
Elder Yi chuckled again.
âHahahaha did this Elder Yi ever take it back the words that came out from his mouth?â
âHow did I know? We never get to know each other that wellâ
âHehehe, heh, long time no see Paiâer, how is that rotten kid now?â
Crown Prince looked back at the field where his men were still training vigorously, Paiâer was Elder Yiâs name for his father, Emperor LuoPai, they were, Elder Yi and the former Emperor LuoWang had become great fellow before, and because of LuoPai, His father was also same as himself whoâd traveled in the martial world before becoming an emperor, at least his father had trained with Bao Yi. LuoXiang imagined, the time when they both met, Elder Yi was a womanizer and he imagined how his father could become a seductress, it must be because of the upbringing of the person in front of him.
âFather is fine, he must be very excited to meet Elder Yi after so longâ
...
In the living room downstairs of the bungalow.
BaiYing sat with his chin on his hands on the table, watching closely how Lanâer and her two maids prepared the ginger soup with the glutinous cake with peanut filled in they had just made that afternoon.
Although the air was warm but previously it was quite cold, so everyone was waiting for the soup to be so refreshing with pieces of ginger and herbs that can strengthen the body, just seeing it made BaiYing salivate.
âHave you done yet sister?â
Lanâer poured the sugar water into the still hot gravy that had previously been cooked to a boil.
âJust a moment, itâs not ready yet.â
Yan brought a bowl of freshly cooked glutinous cake from the kitchen, BaiYingâs eyes were wide, and couldnât wait to enjoy it, watching carefully as Yan put a large number of mochi into the bowl of soup that Lanâer poured, and put in front of him.
âWow, this smells great, Sis.â
The hot steam from the soup that smelled so good made BaiYing unable to hold himself back and was about to pick it up, Lanâer was too late to warn him when BaiYing touched the small bowl which was still very hot.
âOw itâs hot Sisâ
Lanâer pinched BaiYingâs nose who had been impatient since earlier.
âThis brat, of course, itâs hot, canât you see the smoke is still billowing like that? Just wait a minute.â
Yan and Bi secretly laughed seeing BaiYingâs adorable face frowning at concubine Fu.
âAh Big Sister, Yingâer canât wait, itâs still a long time huh?â
Lanâer finally shifted the small bowl and helped blow off the hot steam.
âThis kid, you really such a babyâ
âHehehe Sis Lanâer is the bestâ
Lanâer couldnât stop smiling seeing the face of the young man who was very adorable like a child who was now hugging her waist, lately, BaiYing was really clingy to her.
âWait a moment, let me see your hand.â
Lanâer check on BaiYingâs index finger, which had been hot from holding the bowl earlier.
âItâs fine Sis, just a little redâ
When the two were busy chatting, from the door a little guard excused to come in.
âReport Your Majesty, there is a guest for Your Majestyâ reported the young guard who bowed his head in front of BaiYing.
BaiYing frowned, then looked at Lanâer, he thought who had come looking for him there? But when he remembered that he was the one whoâs waiting for someone, BaiYing immediately stood up from his seat.
âUh, where is him? Let him in.â
The young guard nodded, then retreat in an orderly.
Before long the guest who had come looking for BaiYing had already appeared at the door, who else but young master XuYi who heâs been waiting for.
âYoung master Xu, please come in.â
