Chapter 459: Chapter 459

459 Lets Go

Bai Ying smiled. He dropped his head back into the Crown Prince’s chest.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty must promise, whatever happens in the future, Your Majesty must not hesitate and be selfish, no matter how difficult it is, I believe, Your Majesty can always choose which is the best”

“But, what if that means, I will lose You, Ying, how can I choose?” The Crown Prince’s voice began to tremble, he held back the tears that finally fell at the corners of his eyes.

Bai Ying smiled.

“Your Majesty knows, wherever, Ying will always wait for Your Majesty to come, and I swear, will wait for Your Majesty forever, everything will be fine Your Majesty, I firmly believe that”

Luo Xiang hugged Bai Ying tightly, very tightly as if bringing all the little bodies together with him.

“Ying Ying”

The cold wind blew harder and harder. Loudly waved Luo Xiang and Bai Ying’s clothes who were embracing under the big tree in the middle of the valley.

Slowly but surely the sun had descended to its place, leaving the sky slowly turning dark.

.....

The Crown Prince’s entourage had just returned to the Xin Hua palace compound when Su Lang approached Bei Yau.

“Report Guard Bei, there is a letter from the capital for His Highness the Crown Prince”

Bei Yau stopped his movements. Seeing Su Lang handing him a long brown envelope with the seal belonging to the Yue Yang palace, a personal letter to the Crown Prince.

Luo Xiang who was holding Bai Ying’s hand stopped in front of Bei Yau.

“Bei”

Bei Yau lowered his head, handing the letter to the Crown Prince with two hands.

“Your Highness”

Luo Xiang grabbed the letter, slowly opened it and took out its contents. Read the contents of the letter the Emperor sent to him.

The curious Bai Ying was already impatiently waiting.

“Your Majesty, what is in the letter?”

Luo Xiang folded the letter back.

“The Emperor received many reports from the neighbouring countries at the north, that Xue Hua palace had started to intensify its attacks near the border, chaos was everywhere so that there were many casualties from civilians though, they all started to ask Yue Yang army support to help”

Eyes Bai Ying widened his eyes, took the letter in Luo Xiang’s hand and read it.

“They have reached there Your Majesty?”

Luo Xiang nodded.

“That’s right, beyond our expectations if Queen Bo Yan moves faster than expected, there will be quite a war, Xue Hua suddenly becoming a threat is not an easy opponent”

Bei Yau nodded.

“That’s right Your Majesty, Queen Bo Yan doesn’t let go of every opportunity, she really wants to rule over all the northern regions”

Luo Xiang turned his body to look at Bai Ying beside him, lifting the headgear of Bai Ying’s cold coat to protect him from the cold wind, face of the young man was slightly rosy from the cold, staring at him with a pair of big round eyes.

“What, Ying are you ready?”

Bai Ying nodded as he tightened his grip on the Crown Prince’s hand.

“Yes Your Majesty, let’s go there”

.....

The tall and strong horses have lined up in front of the palace complex, in the courtyard of Eagle. a very big courtyard of Xin Hua Palace as in the Dragon courtyard back in Yue Yang.

Princess Wu Lan caressed Bai Ying’s cheek, almost shedding tears at the sight of her grandson’s face, also not intending to let go of her grip on the young man’s hand.

“Oh my sweet child, this old granny will miss you so much, will my Ying be gone long enough this time too? Well, no matter what, Grandma will always pray for my little Ying to come back as soon as possible, without missing anything.”

Bai Ying held onto his grandmother’s smooth but wrinkled hand, holding it tightly, unable to see straight into her eyes because he would definitely cry again, though, he couldn’t help it no matter how hard he tried.

“Ems, Grandma must always take care, don’t eat too many nuts, just a little is okay, not too much, then don’t eat too much sugar, Grandma knows you have to always keep Grandma’s teeth strong, right? And, be careful with the chicken bones, as long as Ying is not in the palace, I hope Yan and Bi can help Grandma sort the bones well.”

Yan and Bi who were standing behind the Princess lowered their heads, and couldn’t hold back their tears thinking about they would part ways with Bai Ying again.

“Ems, Your Majesty.”

Wu Lan smiled. He stroked Bai Ying’s beautiful hair who was standing tall in front of her so she had to raise her hand quite high.

“Heh later, when you get home Grandma will help you comb your hair, okay? Grandma has been so busy that she forgot to brush your hair, at least this grandma has to do it every day, combing her hair means giving a long prayer for loved ones, please forgive this old grandma for not having time to do it, my sweet grandson”

Bai Ying smiled, he wiped his tears and smiling broadly at his grandmother, slowly came forward to hug the little woman with a slightly hunchbacked stature. Bai Ying couldn’t stop crying, this, was maybe the last time he could see and hug his grandmother, he might leave this world and make the old lady very sad because of it, after what she had been through all this time, she still couldn’t get a little happiness that she deserves.

Bai Ying’s body trembled as the crying intensified, his chest ached at the mere thought of leaving everyone behind, it was so heavy he couldn’t even lift his knees.

“Xiao Ying, don’t be so sad, just do your job and come back soon, grandma will always be waiting for you here, my sweet child, calm down, everything will be fine, grandma’s prayers will always be with you”

Bai Ying nodded, he couldn’t say anything because of the tears and the throbbing pain in his chest.

The Crown Prince approached. Patting Bai Ying’s shoulder from behind, he knew how the boy was feeling right now, and he didn’t want anyone let alone his grandmother to know what was going to happen to him.

“Ying”

Bai Ying slowly let go of his embrace, Wu Lan smiled, and she wiped the tears on Bai Ying’s cheek

“Hey, sweet child, why are you crying like that? Don’t worry, everything will be fine, and, um, here, grandma, has something for you.”

Wu Lan turned to MeMa who was standing behind her, who then opened the small box she had been holding ever since.

Bai Ying wiped his tears, seeing what was in Wu Lan’s hand now.

“This”

Princess Wu Lan smiled.

“Yeah, I don’t know whether this thing can work or not, but grandma found a book in the old palace library, if, these coins, it turns out that apart from being passed down in one family line, as well as branches.”

Bai Ying widened his eyes.

“Em, but, back then, grandpa, couldn’t use Ying er’s.”

Wu Lan smiled, she nodded.

“That’s right, it’s also written in the book, to be able to use it properly the previous owner must release it with all his heart, and give this thing only to the person he thinks of, and, Grandma has asked him directly, he, wants Ying to use it, hopefully, this can protect you, sweetie.”

Bai Ying lowered his head, letting Princess Wu Lan drape it around his neck.

Luo Xiang smiled. He took Bai Ying’s hand and squeezed it, smiling broadly in front of Princess Wu Lan.

“Princess don’t worry, as long as I live, Ying will always be fine, I will protect him with all my heart and soul,” said the Crown Prince looking at Bai Ying’s face for a long time, unable to turn away from him even for a moment.

Every time he saw Bai Ying there was always a spark of love in his gaze. Princess Wu Lan could see that clearly, she smiled.

“hehe, of course, I will never doubt that no matter what, this old granny will wait for you to come back here, don’t let this granny wait too long”

Bai Ying held the Saviour coin which was now hanging around his neck. It was true as Princess Wu Lan said, as soon as the coin touched his hand something like a tickling spark ran through his hand as if it had fused into his body, there was a faint tremor like a warm welcome sound. It’s a very magical coin, even any force power can’t defeat this, does it mean that he has a chance to survive? This coin could definitely save him like he saved his grandfather Wu Yi, right?

The Crown Prince smiled too after seeing Bai Ying’s face which gradually became more excited, he held the boy’s hand tightly, caressing his cheek gently.

“Is Ying Ying feeling better now?”

Bai Ying turned his head, he nodded quickly.

“Yes Your Highness”
