CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

352 Meet Again

“Why is he called as the Young King? Doesn’t it mean that being able to defeat the Ancient Dragon means it’s already very great, Grandpa?” asked one of the girls.

“Hehehe that’s because Viceroy PaiYun is still very young, he may only be a few years above you, the time will come for Viceroy PaiYun to grow up and finally become a Great King”

“Wow he is so great Grandpa”

Their voices were heard up to the seat BaiYing and SuLang, did they talk about him? BaiYing thought, but, who gave the Young King nickname as PaiYun (White Cloud)? And how did the old man know what had happened that day? Of course, all stories can’t be covered up, sooner or later all the greatness of PaiHua will be heard far and wide across the land, and it’s only a matter of time.

Young master Su who was enjoying his tea pursed his lips.

“That’s just folklore, where are dragons, let alone dragon gods, so far all I’ve seen are worms.”

BaiYing who was drinking his tea almost choked, SuLang turned his head to check him out.

“What’s wrong with your XiaoYing? Drink slowly, just take your time.”

BaiYing almost choked at the thought that old man ErWang was a worm.

.....

“Hehe, I’m fine, just a little startled.”

SuLang took a napkin and helped BaiYing dry up his mouth, but that only made BaiYing stunned, he immediately turned his face away.

“Eh it’s okay, thank you young master Su”

“Don’t hesitate, oh yeah, just call me Brother LangLang, don’t be so awkward, hehehe” the young man’s face, the look in his eyes somehow reminded BaiYing of some people who perverted as him.

“Hehe, I think, young master Su is enough, um, oh well, why doesn’t young master Su believe the story about the rise of the XinHua palace, is it, it’s something that very impossible in your opinion?”

Young master Su stopped the movement of his hand, glanced at the old man who was still smiling while stroking his chin explaining his story with a cheerful face.

“That’s impossible, where there is a palace that was lost for decades and suddenly appeared, let alone a dragon, no one has ever seen the dragon come, if indeed the dragon flew very far from LiuYang, it should at least pass through SuChou city, but, let alone dragons, eagles barely fly through the skies of SuChou, that’s so far-fetched”

BaiYing pursed his lips, indeed, no one will believe it, dragon ErWang dragon didn’t reveal its form as it flew across the cities from LiuYang to PaiHua, it was that far, and no one noticed he was passing, usually there would only be loud and bright lightning across the city sky with the clouds suddenly turning dark, it was a natural occurrence, so, who would believe it? Heh, let it be, after all, the story of the revival of PaiHua and XinHua is not meant to be made into folklore, just let things stay like this, full of mystery.

As the afternoon passed, BaiYing and young master Su resumed their journey, this time heading to SuChou, BaiYing couldn’t wait to get to CuiAn, he had to make sure the officials trapped in the landslide area weren’t the Crown Prince, and even so, he hoped whoever it is, they’re in good shape.

“Brother, when we arrive in SuChou, I will take you around that very beautiful city, oh yeah, stay at my house for a few days, well, we have many houses, there are in every corner of the city, you could say my family is one of the elders who built the city, hehehe” SuLang said proudly, he couldn’t help but want to pull BaiYing closer but the young man didn’t care about him at all.

“Oh yeah, who are you looking for in CuiAn brother? I’ll accompany you there later, it’s been a long time since I’ve been to CuiAn, even though it’s not that far away”

BaiYing stuttered, he didn’t know what to answer.

“Eh em, that distant family, eh is in the CuiAn valley”

“CuiAn Valley? Heard that the area is prone to disasters, does anyone still live there? No matter how dangerous the terrain, brother will accompany you there”

“Hehe , I think, it no needs Young Master, it’ll be troublesome for Young Master”

SuLang waved his hand.

“Alas, what’s so troublesome, take it easy, after all, I’m unemployed, heh that old man will definitely be angry and shout like a madman, this is really annoying”

When the two arrived at the outskirts of the city, a commotion broke out, the clanging of hard weapons clashing in the air, the sound of the wind and the pounding of bodies, there was a group of people fighting in front of their path.

A few people in blue uniforms, resembling personal bodyguards, and some people in black, it might be a band of robbers, but, their number was definitely twice the number of the people surrounded in blue, they looked overwhelmed and casualties were inevitable.

“Hiatt!’

Ting ting ting ting!

“Hiatt!”

Brukk!

Young master Su pulled the reins of his horse, intending to take BaiYing away, surely this was not their battle.

“Come on, brother, we better go.”

When the two turned around, behind them already appeared several people in palace guard clothes, Bai Ying’s eyes widened, palace guard? Damn, will they recognize him?

One of the men at the front shouted loudly.

“Insolent! Who’s dare to make a fuss here?” and without a second thought, the group rushed past BaiYing and SuLang, towards the centre of the battle.

“Hiaaat!”

“Advance!!”

BaiYing almost dismounted from his horse XiaoHei who was surprised by the number of people passing by at once.

“heeeee!!”

Panic BaiYing couldn’t control his horse, XiaoHei put his two front legs up with BaiYing still sitting on his saddle.

“No XiaoHei!” bad, he could fall if like this? BaiYing tried to hold his body, the horse almost stood up straight on its two hind legs, while BaiYing who was less skilled couldn’t hold his body and fell backwards.

“Oh no, MingMing Brother!”

SuLang’s eyes went wide, BaiYing’s position was in front of him, where several soldiers passing separated their distance, but he couldn’t let the young man fall, without thinking about anything else, SuLang pointed his long spear to dispel the people who came forward so he could jump towards BaiYing, trying to save him before he fell.

“Xiao Ying!”

SuLang managed to knock down several men and pulled BaiYing’s hand towards him before falling, but, in an instant, someone also appeared hitting his hand makes his grip on BaiYing free.

“Ah!” SuLang’s eyes went wide, his body was bounced far back due to the punch of someone who had caught BaiYing’s body and carried him away from the crowd, SuLang immediately stomped his foot and chased after the figure.

“God damn it!”

The figure carried BaiYing’s body which was already in his arms towards the open field, where no one else was there, SuLang aimed his long spear at the person who from behind was wearing a wide blue robe that fluttered wildly, carried BaiYing’s body and twisted his body to hold the spear strike with his longsword.

“Ting!” Loud noises rang out as the two weapons clashed in midair.

SuLang pushed the person, with all his might pushed him down to the ground until the dust flew as their feet stomped on the ground, in such a short time SuLang managed to hold the figure’s sword that he couldn’t escape with BaiYing, or, it was just in his mind.

“Hehe” the figure smirked, pulling his lips to see the fierce face of young master Su who seemed to care nothing about attacking at high speed.

“This is very interesting”

SuLang who was still on full alert finally lowered his sharp eyes, he, seemed to know the figure is, and BaiYing, why did the young man just look at him with very calm eyes in the position of his body that that person’s hand? The youth even wrapped his arms around the person’s neck, afraid of falling.

“XiaoYing”

“Pardon me, but, he’s calling out my name” the person smirked.

The figure straightened its body, pushing SuLang’s long spear into place.

“Brother! Why did big brother come all of a sudden like that!” BaiYing’s shrill voice, he hit the shoulder of the person holding him, who else could irritate him if not his older brother ChenMing.

ChenMing straightened his body.

“Heh brat, still dares to ask, where have you been all this time? Why did you run away from home, you know not everyone is so worried about you, this kid, ichh” ChenMing exasperatedly pinched BaiYing’s nose.

BaiYing let go of his brother’s grip, looking at him intently.

“Who told you don’t want to accompany Ying’er? Did brother think, Ying could just stay calm and quiet after hearing the news?”

ChenMing was still holding BaiYing’s hand tightly, he wouldn’t let go of his hand again let alone his gaze from the boy, after days of chasing after him with traces of the Tracking Coin.

“Brother said we are waiting for news, come up with a plan, who doesn’t want to save those people, you are really impatient, just watch out if you run away again, big brother will pinch you to death!”
