336 Fussy Young King
The new young officialâs inauguration ceremony went smoothly, even too smoothly to be boring, BaiYing thought, who was trying hard to keep himself from yawning in public, remembering what his fiercely begging brother who had stood beside him from the start of the event said, he should be able to maintain his dignity as a Young King, but, this is so suffering, he canât even move to enjoy his favourite food, it is so inconvenient, he canât even sit on his shoulders even though heâs been so sore sitting up straight since earlier, is this what itâs like to be when the Crown Prince sitting too long at regular state meetings, now he understood why the Crown Prince disliked this kind of official event so much.
âHey, this is very boring.â
Young officials, junior ministers for sports, junior ministers for internal affairs, junior ministers for food, logistics, junior ministers for women and youth affairs, ministers of agriculture, lots of ministers who each have their own duties to serve XinHuaâs citizens who are increasing day by day.
Until it was near noon when old man Pai as Princess WuLanâs main advisor announced the half-finished event, everyone could rest and enjoy their lunch. No one was happier than BaiYing when it came to eating.
âCome on, Sis, letâs find something to eat,â BaiYing exclaimed, glancing at his two maids.
But before he lifted his butt, Princess WuLan who was sitting beside BaiYing turned her head and patted BaiYingâs hand lightly.
âXiaoYing, after the meal is over, it will be continued later in the afternoon for the appointment of the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Minister of Defense, because the two ministers have very important roles, for the candidate himself, XiaoYing must choose them.â
Hearing that BaiYing took a deep breath.
âHeh, this is really troublesome, Grandma said all of them have been chosen, itâs just a coronation ceremony, Grandma knows that Ying doesnât know them, how can Ying decide?â
.....
Princess WuLan chuckled at BaiYingâs wry face.
âHehehe this kid, donât worry too much about it, XiaoYing only needs to see who wins the contest for the position of Defense Minister, old man Pai and the others who will arrange it, while the foreign minister, XiaoYing must know how important that position is, and these young people have unique thoughts, but after all, there is only one person who will occupy the position of the youth minister, this country still has a lot to learn, junior ministers will be an important part of the country but at the same time they are the new people who are just starting to learn, so XiaoYing doesnât have to worry about choosing the wrong personâ
âStill granny..â BaiYing scowled, what if he chose the wrong person? This is really worrying.
After the procession of honouring all the senior officials and young officials, all the guests headed to the dining room to enjoy their lunch.
ChenMing who was sitting beside BaiYing watched his brotherâs face for a while, itâs not usually that he wasnât excited when he saw so much food on the table, he just stared blankly while enjoying the rice he had been chewing in his mouth until it puffed up.
âBrother what are you thinking? Why donât you eat? Hurry up and eat after this we still have other events, you will complain about hunger later.â
BaiYing turned his head, he looked at ChenMing sharply.
âBrother, Ying is bored, is being a king so boring like this?â
âRotten child, whatâs boring, watch your mouth, if grandma hears you she will be very sadâ
BaiYing pursed his lips, lucky Princess WuLan was with some old Pai and old officials at another table, they seemed to be chatting.
When he turned his head he saw Elder Yi and ShinYa who finally appeared and approached.
âYour Majestyâ ShinYa saluted.
Meanwhile, Elder Yi immediately pulled out a chair and sat in front of BaiYing.
âWhere have you been? Why havenât I seen you guys these past few days? Old man, you are looking for a woman outside, donât you? Master Shin, didnât Ying already say that Master Shin will be my main advisor, why didnât he appear at the coronation event?â BaiYing sounded grumpy and fierce.
ShinYa who was invited to sit by ChenMing beside him bowed his head respectfully to BaiYing.
âForgive Servant, Your Majesty, these couple days I always been in the palace, I think itâs because of your highnessâs busyness that I canât get closeâ
BaiYing glared at ShinYa.
âIs that true? How could Ying not see you when Master Shin is so big like thisâ
ShinYa chuckled.
âHehehe but I always keep an eye on Your Majesty, just like when Your Majesty met the dragon ErWang last nightâ
Hearing that BaiYing widened his eyes.
âH-how did you know about that? Only Ying who can see old man ErWang right?â
ShinYa nodded.
âThatâs true Your Majesty, only Your Majesty can see ErWang, but I can feel Your Majestyâs aura when communicating with that dragon, sorry that I followed Your Highness out of worryâ
BaiYing looked at ShinYa with narrowed eyes.
âIs lord Shin a spy for His Highness the Crown Prince huh? That Master Shin is my advisor, how can you be the Crown Princeâs spy?â
Hearing that ChenMing, ShinYa and Elder Yi chuckled.
âHehehe thatâs very unlikely Your Majesty, Iâm not a spy, only, His Highness the Crown Prince is very worried about His Majesty the Viceroy, so he always reminds me to watch over and protect His Majesty from afar, that, I canât ignoreâ
BaiYing still staring at ShinYa annoyed, his mood is very bad and it feels like he needs a reason to be angry, he purposely wants to vent his anger.
âHow can Master Shin protect XiaoYing?â In annoyance, BaiYing opened his palm and showed off his ability how he could make the smallest possible fireball dance on top of his palm.
âAhem, XiaoYingâ ChenMing gave BaiYing a sharp look, reminding the boy to behave.
Elder Yi was busy chomping down on the many side dishes that were too delicious to pass up in front of his eyes, he was already very hungry.
âThen, where is Elder Yi? You really go out the Palace looking for girls?â BaiYing asked, Elder Yi who just put food in his mouth and was about to chew it almost choked at the young manâs question.
âCough coughâ
The food that just entered his mouth almost entered his nostrils.
âOuchâ the man hastily reached for his teacup, took a gulp of it.
âThis rotten child, is this Elder Yi look like someone who will go out from the palace for girls?â
ChenMing and ShinYa who were busy enjoying their food pretended not to hear and tried to enjoy their food, even though they were secretly laughing a little, BaiYingâs nature at that time was really annoying, he became very cynical and fussy.
âWell, if not, where have you been since yesterday? You said you wanted to help Ying regulate my breathing? But I canât even see your nose elsewhere, you guys really ignore Ying,â continued BaiYing.
âRotten child, arenât you already very good at controlling your breathing? Havenât I taught you the right way to meditate? And youâve also mastered it in just a few minutes, does it need that this old man who is much weaker than His Majesty the Viceroy of XinHua still deserves to teach you? After all, this old man has a lot of other business besides looking for women, well, they donât need to be looked for, they will come personally to see how handsome this venerable YiMan is.â
âShameless, if they know how old you are they will certainly run awayâ BaiYing continued.
Finally, ChenMing and ShinYa couldnât hold back their laughter, both of them laughed covering their mouths so that the food that was already in didnât splatter out, the young manâs face when he spoke sarcastically was very adorable, his big eyes seemed to want to swallow people whole, and Elder Yi was at a loss for words against him, BaiYingâs true nature has come out, the young man became another version of the Crown Prince.
âHahahahahaâ
âThis kid, this old man has the body of an extremely dazzling thirty-year-old youngster, who can tell the difference?â
âYing knowsâ
âThis impudent childâ Elder Yi grumbled, of course, he canât do anything to the kid, he is the Viceroy of this country, how could he hit his head in front of so many people, he could be completely swarmed by the masses, not to mention With that kidâs abilities, now who can fight him. Even the extremely powerful dragon ErWang had to bow its head to him, was he aware of that ability? If he knows that, this child could have a much bigger head.
âhehâ this is dizzying, sighed Elder Yi who was somehow trying to keep a calm face while enjoying his meal.
They were busy chatting while enjoying their food, even though they had only heard BaiYingâs grunts which made no sense but everyone understood the young man because he was excited about many things that had happened and had drastically changed in his life.
As they were enjoying their meal, several people in formal attire approached.
