Luo Xiang put down his teacup slowly. Glancing at the second Prince sitting beside him. After hearing the story of how the second Prince got there, far from San Po.

It turned out that all this time there had been upheavals in almost all areas, and seeing a few wounded soldiers, it wasn’t an ordinary battle, so far he and Bai Ying had just followed the fault direction without looking around them.

“Now brother is planning to continue the journey to Ku Chang?” Luo Xiang asked.

The Second Prince nodded.

“Well like that, the journey should have been faster if it weren’t for the attack of a group of black sects on the border of Su Chou city” Luo Yan replied.

Xi Hu clenched his two hands in front of his head.

“Your Majesty, seeing the enemy’s movement they might also head to Ku Chang, it is feared that all are indeed gathered there waiting for us.”

Luo Xiang held his breath.

.....

“So far, all regions have felt the pressure so that there was upheaval everywhere, this must have been foreseen.”

Luo Yan glanced at the Crown Prince.

“This is very interesting, we have the same purpose brother, then this time I will be able to get closer to Consort Hua, it turned out to be not so bad after all”

Luo Xiang narrowed his eyes at Luo Yan who said that without caring if other people would hear it, really no shame.

“We won’t head straight to Ku Chang, at least we have to go back to Xin Hua to plan our next plan, after all, it’s inline”

“Wow that’s even better, brother, this is my chance to get to know all of Concubine Hua’s family, Concubine Hua is so pretty to look at, surely the whole family is also interesting, I really can’t wait to meet them”

“No one asked you there, why did you have to come with us?” Luo Xiang exclaimed, a little annoyed.

Luo Yan laughed at Luo Xiang’s reaction which he could always guess so easily.

“Hahahaha brother why are you so stingy”

Bei Yau and Ge Lu looked at each other for a moment, both of them refraining from laughing too. Bei Yau turned to the young man standing beside Lin Mo, a young man not more than twenty years old, the youth lowered his head deeply, not daring to look at everyone in the room.

........

Bai Ying approached Luo Xiang who was out of the room with Bei Yau and Ge Lu behind him.

Luo Xiang impatiently took Bai Ying’s hand and held her.

“Your Majesty”

“Ying Ying has waited long? Is it time for lunch now?” Luo Xiang asked.

Bai Ying nodded.

“Yes, Your Majesty, Ying heard that the chef made food from lotus root, it smells very good, I can’t wait to enjoy it, I am so hungry, Your Majesty.”

Luo Xiang smiled, pinching Bai Ying’s nose exasperatedly.

“This child, this morning we have eaten quite a lot, so where did all that food go?”

“Your Majesty, this servant does eat a lot, besides the air today is so beautiful, it’s a shame to miss it, since Ying and Hong have been here and there, of course, we are very hungry now”

Luo Xiang gently wiped the sweat that fell on the youth’s forehead.

“Oh really? Then, is the air very hot? Look at you, sweating like this, it’s already noon, better not to be outside for too long,” said Luo Xiang.

Bai Ying smiled widely, he shook his head holding the Crown Prince’s hand on his cheek.

“It’s not that hot, Your Majesty, instead, it’s quite warm. Oh yeah, Ying heard that in the center of the city there is a big gathering of merchants from all regions, where there are merchants, there must be good and unique goods, umm .. ”

Bai Ying’s two eyes stared at the Crown Prince who was tall enough in front of him that he had to look up for a long time, of course, Luo Xiang immediately understood the meaning of the young man’s gaze.

He grabbed Bai Ying’s hand and walked towards the building where they would be staying the night to continue their journey the next day.

“No, we will soon continue our non-stop journey to Sui Lian tomorrow dawn, Ge Lu and the others are busy filling up our equipment during the trip, you need to rest a lot, don’t run around like that”

Bai Ying stopped his steps, grabbed the Crown Prince’s hand and showed a sulky face.

“Akh, Your Majesty, just a moment, Ying wants to buy some things for grandma and others in the palace, so far Ying hasn’t had time to buy anything, grandma must have been waiting for gifts from Ying er, can I? Your Majesty, can I? Pleaseeee”

Luo Xiang pulled his lips seeing Bai Ying’s sulky face.

“This kid, just obeys me for this once, the situation is not safe out there, anything can happen, you don’t want to cause a ruckus, do you?”

Bai Ying pursed his lips.

“Your Majesty, who is this Hua Bai Ying? It’s no longer Ying who was weak and can be suppressed, if there are people who want to fight with me, of course, I can definitely protect myself, right? After all, there is Big Brother Su Lang who will accompany Ying er, and, um,...” Bai Ying looked around and saw the young man standing behind Bei Yau and pulling him closer, even when the young man didn’t expect the Young King will pull him.

“Eh Y-Your Highness”

Bai Ying pulled the young man in front of Luo Xiang.

“This, head bodyguard brother can definitely accompany Ying er too, right brother?”

Luo Xiang glanced at the youth who was now in front of him, who lowered his head very deeply.

“He? Who knew what was going through this young bodyguard’s mind? How could Big Brother let you go with him?”

The youth that Bai Ying had pulled down immediately lowered his body to his knees in front of the Crown Prince.

“Please forgive servant, Your Majesty, for being presumptuous on our first encounter, Servant willing to accept any punishment”

Bai Ying approached Luo Xiang, holding his hand and whispering.

“Your Majesty, you shouldn’t talk like that, he’s not that bad.”

Luo Xiang glanced at the young man sharply.

“What’s your name young man?” he asked.

The young man raised his head, though he didn’t dare to look at the Crown Prince’s sharp eyes.

“Eh servant”

Luo Xiang glanced at Bei Yau to help the young man up.

“Young master please stand up”

The young man looked awkward. Before he was a very great fighter with black iron who was able to defeat anyone until he met the Crown Prince’s entourage who crushed all his beliefs all this time. Of course, it was a huge blow that he hadn’t expected.

“Servant is Ye Lu, the head of the personal guard of Xi”

Luo Xiang clenched his two hands behind his waist then turned his head, black chain and the same name, are definitely unmistakable.

Bai Ying frowned in thought, he was also thinking about the same thing.

“What is your relationship with Du Gu Ye Mu?” Luo Xiang asked.

Hearing that name, the youth widened his eyes, swallowing his saliva whole.

“Eh, report Your Majesty, Du Gu Ye Mu, is my elder sister.”

Luo Xiang turned his head, looking at Bai Ying who was beside him as if to say that his guess was correct, Bai Ying held Luo Xiang’s hand which was behind his waist.

“Your Majesty already knows it?” Bai Ying whispered.

Luo Xiang pulled his lips.

“Ying Ying think?”

Bai Ying pursed his lips, and scratched his head, actually, he already knew that too, but he just didn’t want the Crown Prince to find it out and made the young man’s life difficult because of their history with Du Gu Ye wasn’t that good. According to him, all of Gao Shan’s Du Gu family definitely had malicious intentions and unforgivable, no matter what.

“Eh, but he has nothing to do with Sister Mu er,” said Bai Ying.

Luo Xiang looked at Ye Lu sharply.

“Blood won’t change Ying, will stay thick forever, don’t be so naive”

Ye Lu swallowed hard, he clenched his fists at his sides until he knelt down again.

“I am indeed Du Gu Ye Lu, the fourth son of Du Gu San of Gao Shan, although, my father never invited me into all clan affairs, my blood is still the blood of the Du Gu family, servant, will accept whatever Your Majesty will do to me” the young man lowered his head deeply.

Luo Xiang held his breath, he turned his gaze in another direction. Just as he was thinking, from inside the house appeared the Second Prince and Xi Hu.

“Forgive me for interrupting, Your Highness the Crown Prince, the blood may be very thick, but it’s not that it can’t turn into something else.”

Luo Yan approached while waving his wide white fan, Guard Pang following behind him.
