CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

449 Back Home

“Really? Which one? Ying hasn’t bought a present for grandma yet, let’s get off Hong.” Bai Ying pulled Xiao Hong’s hand, preparing to get off the slowly moving carriage when the sound of the Crown Prince who’s riding in front of the carriage stopped the two of them.

“Ying, what do you think you will do?”

Bai Ying smiled, he forgot that the Crown Prince is riding his horse at the front of the carriage, then how did he and Hong get off now?

“Hehehe, Your Highness” Bai Ying sat back down in his place, pursing his lips in disappointment.

Luo Xiang pursed his lips, he knew the kid wouldn’t be able to let go if he didn’t realize whatever he had planned, after all, they have returned to Sui Lian, this is Xin Hua’s territory, what can happen there?

“Okay, Ying can have your shopping.”

Hearing those words, the previously limp Bai Ying got excited again, instantly.

“Really, Your Majesty? Come on Hong let’s go down, don’t let His Majesty take his word for it.” Without waiting for confirmation from the Crown Prince, Bai Ying pulled Xiao Hong’s hand down, both of them looking like little kids who just found their new toy.

“Wow, this is so pretty Your Majesty, look at the carving.”

.....

The two youths had stopped in front of the accessories seller who had been attracting their eyes since earlier. It was seen that Chen Ming had also gotten off the carriage stretching his leg muscles by walking with Su Lang behind him.

“This one is so beautiful, it suits you, Hong, look, it’s a firebird.”

Hong widened his eyes at the hanger being held in Bai Ying’s hand now.

“Wow, Your Majesty, can I have this one? Sister a Er will definitely like it, Hong will keep this for her”

Bai Ying nodded.

“Of course, Sister a Er will like all the things you give her, and, owh, this one is so cute, Ying will give this to His Highness the Crown Prince”

Luo Xiang also got off his horse, while the little soldier led the horse, he and Bei Yau walked slowly not far behind Bai Ying.

The Crown Prince with tall stature, beautiful attire predominantly light blue with gold trim that waved so lightly as he moved, walked gracefully with two hands behind his waist. Even if they don’t recognize him, all the residents who see him pass by will still bow their heads to pay respect to the young master who shone brightly like the morning sun.

“Young master”

Luo Xiang only nodded his head slightly, the rest was Bei Yau who took care of it if there were citizens blocking the way the Crown Prince was about to pass.

“Excuse me, please excuse me”

Bai Ying and Xiao Hong’s voices seemed to admire all the goods sold on the roadside from far away, where Chen Ming was busy looking at some silk cloths hanging up for sale.

“Heh, that kid”

....

After leaving Sui Lian and entering the cloud forest, the group finally arrived at Xin Hua. The city of Pai Hua was now vast and grand and the surrounding area was no longer like the palace complex that had risen before.

Xiao Hong’s eyes widen, he rides on Xiao Hei moving with the group towards a very tall city gate, with a dominant yellow and red flag and four large tall pillars with coloured flames burning at the ends of the pillars. It was the eternal fires, four pillars of the Xin Hua palace which was famous for its mystical powers.

“Wow, this is so beautiful, Hong never saw kind a place this beautiful, Your Majesty, can Xiao Hong stay here?” Xiao Hong asked Bai Ying who was sitting on the horse beside the Crown Prince.

Bai Ying nodded.

“Of course, this is your home too Hong, the palace has a very large number of rooms”

The tall gate was opened, along with the sound of long trumpets welcoming the return of the Viceroy and his entourage.

“His Highness the Viceroy has arrived!” cried the gatekeeper.

Instantly enter the city gates which are open to anyone, which shows a city that has been very neatly arranged and beautiful buildings. All the residents gathered on the side of the road to welcome the Viceroy and his entourage with flower arrangements and silk cloth tethered to the passing guards.

“Welcome home Your Majesty, may Your Majesty be blessed and long live” Several beautiful girls by the roadside spread beautiful and fragrant flower petals along the path that Bai Ying and the others were about to walk.

“Hehehe thank you sisters” and there was no one happier to be back there than Bai Ying who couldn’t hide the huge smile on his face.

Ye Lu who rode in the middle of the group looked around. His eyes darted around for someone, what was he thinking? How could he possibly find his sister among those people, she must be locked up in the palace like what the Viceroy said.

The young man lowered his head languidly, he went right through the alley where several children were seen clustered in front of a table.

They were busy checking themselves because the owner of the table would give them cakes and sweets if they complied, and several parents were also seen with their gathered children.

“Hehehe it’s just a cold, don’t go out often at night, the air at night is uncertain, it can be very windy and cold,” the woman who wore a white mask on half of her face, with slender fingers wrote a few letters on white paper.

“Here I give a recipe, this is not a medicine so it’s not too heavy, because her stomach is very easy to bloat I give a recipe for a ginger drink with a little mint leaves, this is good for warming the stomach at night so you won’t have trouble sleeping, sweet child,” her voice sounds so gently and caressed the head of the little boy sitting in front of her, the child who was no more than six years old nodded.

“Yeah, thank you, fairy sister”

The young woman smiled, the little boy and his mother then excused themselves and left them. Meanwhile, another little boy came.

“Ouch, what happened to this beautiful princess?” a girl who’s left cheek is swollen and red, her eyes are watery and swollen from crying, and she looks pitiful. Her mother stroked her daughter’s hair, the little girl so cute, her age maybe not more than eight years old.

“This brat, we told her to pull out her loose tooth, my husband and I have tried to pull it out but she can’t stay still until her teeth crock, oh please help her my lady”

The young woman smiled hearing the mother’s complaint, while the little girl seemed trying not to cry anymore, she gripped her little hands in her mother’s clothes.

“Hehehe mom, next time if the tooth is loose, just let it be, don’t force it to be pulled out, it will come off on its own in time, if the tooth hasn’t come out, that’s a sign that it’s not time for it to come off, let me take a look at your mouth, open your mouth, aahhh”

It’s even doesnt took a long time, the young woman managed to pull out the front tooth that was half detached from the little girl’s mouth, the little girl not feeling any pain when she pulled it out.

“Well, it’s been removed now, you can stop crying now, okay?”

The child’s mother cheered with joy.

“Wow this is great, healers are great, how is it, Nu’er, it still hurt?” her mother asked while looking down at her daughter.

Her daughter nodded while holding her cheek.

The young woman smiled, she wrote some letters on white paper.

“Here, buy this medicine at old man Chang’s drug shop, he has everything there, boil this leaf and gargle for a while in the mouth, until the blood and wounds heal, after that beautiful new teeth will grow again, okay Nu ‘er?”

The little girl nodded, she had difficulty speaking due to her swollen mouth, but she must be very grateful to the young lady.

“Thank you fairy, oh so lucky we have a fairy healer around, Come on Nu’er say thank you”

The young woman couldn’t stop smiling, her cheeks were rounded with sweet red lips that stretched to her ears, she looked satisfied to see the smiles of people who passed away from her.

“Hehehe cute kids”

The young woman was about to sit back in her chair, she put a table and two chairs on the side of the road between the shop aisles where she treated her patients for free.

She couldn’t stop smiling as she tidied up her tools, and stopped moving her hands when she felt someone standing not far in front of her.

“Sister, Mu Mu”

The young woman, who was none other than Ye Mu wearing white clothes with a face half covered in a white mask raised her head, she had not heard anyone call her that for a long time, someone, whom she thought she would never see again.

“Y-you?”

Ye Mu could hardly believe her eyes, seeing a tall slender figure with a face she would never forget, standing valiantly and handsomely in front of her. Her hand shakes and the candies in her hand fall on the table.
