137 Poor Kid BaiYing

The emperor spoke while tilting his head in thought, LuoXiang narrowed his eyes, yet again, his father lied to him, how could he not remember the official’s name, either because he thought it was not important to tell or maybe, on the contrary, he must be hiding something.

“After all, father, regarding the matter of the attack on the Hua family home ten years ago, with the Hua house attack killing the entire Hua family, Xiang’er thought they must be from the same person.”

The emperor turned to look at his son for a moment.

“Um, if that’s the case, why wait ten years? Why not finish off the family a long time ago? Why wait?”

The Emperor’s words made LuoXiang think, he hadn’t thought about it before, there was something really odd, ten years time, and also, how did those people know about the fragments of the Dragon Pearl, the Bloodstone in BaiYing’s body? Why did they only launch their actions after so much time had passed?

“Ten years, what actually made them do it after ten years?”

“It’s possible that whoever attacked the Hua family mansion in the past didn’t know of the existence of the Bloodstone shards until a while ago, someone said about the existence of the shards, hm, this is very complicated.” concluded the Emperor.

......

Kreek.

.....

The bedroom door was opened from the outside, after for a while, the Plum Pavilion shone again, it was unthinkable that they would miss the small pavilion inside the Crown Prince’s palace.

BaiYing’s two loyal servants lowered their knees when they saw the Crown Prince enter the Plum Pavilion’s main house. It didn’t take long for LuoXiang to enter the room where BaiYing was already lying on his bed.

LuoXiang smiled, sitting on the edge of the bed looking at BaiYing who was fast asleep.

“Heh brat, you just sleep instead of waiting for me, are you so tired?”

LuoXiang was silent, looking at the innocent face of the young man who closed his eyes, sleeping sideways towards him, two hands in front of him clenching sweetly.

“Emh that’s delicious”

He was delirious, this kid must be having a sweet dream about delicious food, in his innocent brain there is only food, he doesn’t even think much even though there are many bad things happening around him.

LuoXiang glanced at BaiYing’s feet who had just pulled the blanket apart, he was just about to lift the blanket and cover BaiYing’s bare feet again when he saw BaiYing’s ankles were still a little blue, he must be in pain from sitting in the carriage all day and still having to stand up chatting with the Queen.

After a while, LuoXiang got up from his seat, went to the dressing table and took something from the drawer, and again sat on the edge of the bed, opening the lid of the small round ceramic container with a bluish-white oil in it. Gently, he smeared it on BaiYing’s ankles, being very careful not to wake him up, LuoXiang lifted BaiYing’s little legs onto his lap, however, the young man opens his eyes. BaiYing slowly pulled himself up, rubbing his eyes, clearing his gaze at the Crown Prince who was sitting on the bedside while applying something on his feet that felt a bit cold and quite comfortable.

“Your Highness, you are back, hoaaa”

LuoXiang smiled, he closed the oil container again and placed it on the table beside the bed.

“Hey sorry to wake you up, does your leg still hurt?”

BaiYing whose face looked so tired nodded, the look on his face at that moment was adorable, his eyes drooping and watery from his sleepiness, he lowered his head as the Crown Prince approached and sat beside him.

“A little, just a little sore, it will get better tomorrow, did, Your Majesty has finished talking to His Majesty the Emperor?” asked Bai Ying.

The Crown Prince nodded, stroking BaiYing’s head which was clinging to his arm.

“Well, tomorrow it will be continued again, that old man, don’t understand how tired people still keep people there, and also YingYing, you also just came back from the Queen’s bungalow huh? Was dinner good?”

Bai Ying nodded.

“It’s delicious, Her Majesty the Queen is cooking, she deliberately cooked bone soup with lotus root, I thought the taste would be very strange, but it turned out to be very delicious, the bone soup was tempting, she said if I still want to enjoy it just say it, she will cook it another time, hehe, it turns out that Her Majesty the Queen is very gentle and considerate”

“Well, sometimes Mother can be very considerate” something in LuoXiang’s mind, he had thought that the order to kill his biological mother could have come from Her Majesty the Queen who previously did not really like her mother for being the Emperor’s favorite, but, is that even possible? Queen YinHua is a very smart and graceful woman, would she want to dirty her own hands to do something dishonorable which is of little use, considering, the position of the Empress is certain and cannot be replaced by anyone else even if it is the Emperor’s favorite concubine, LuoXiang smile, this, maybe just a thought.

“YingYing must be eaten a lot, how about your diet plan?”

BaiYing raised his head to glare at LuoXiang for a moment, then ignored him.

“What diet, this servant still needs a lot of food, just let me become so fat and round so Your Majesty is bored with me.”

Hearing this LuoXiang smiled amusedly, he pinched BaiYing’s nose exasperatedly.

“Ich this kid, how can I get tired of this adorable kid, ich”

BaiYing brushed off LuoXiang’s hand and still clung to his arm.

“Akh Your Majesty”

The Crown Prince couldn’t stop laughing, it felt like all his tiredness was meaningless when he saw BaiYing’s face which was always giving him energy, raised his hand to brush BaiYing’s front hair, seeing the young man’s face that was limp from exhaustion.

“Would you like to sleep? Let’s continue your sleep.”

“Em, Your Majesty, the day after tomorrow, does, Your Majesty busy?” asked Bai Ying.

LuoXiang frowned at the thought.

“Erm the day after tomorrow, um, usually, the work in the study has piled up, why? Does YingYing want to take me out for a walk?”

BaiYing sat up straight, seeing LuoXiang’s face looking at him seriously.

“Em, servant, want to go back home, just a moment, lately, for some reason, I always think of leaving something very important there, but, I don’t remember what either”

LuoXiang thought.

“Em, this might be because YingYing misses home so much, heh, we haven’t been back there for a long time, because, YingYing might feel traumatized and sad every time sees your house, all the memories are there, are, YingYing sure to face it now? ”

BaiYing held his breath for a moment, squeezed his hand. The Crown Prince realized how the young man was trying to restrain himself, grabbed BaiYing’s hand, and held it, he smiled.

“The day after tomorrow, I’ll make time for it. We’ll visit for a while. Well, after all, YingYing does have to come home sometime.”

BaiYing nodded, he lowered his head back on LuoXiang’s shoulder.

“Heh, thank you, Your Majesty.”

The Crown Prince smiled, stroked BaiYing’s front hair, and kissed his forehead.

“What thanks, I should be the one thanking you because YingYing still wants to stay in the palace with me.”

The young man was silent, not responding to LuoXiang’s words immediately.

“Em, Your Majesty, after the murderer of my family is found, does that mean that I can leave the palace? All this time, staying here, for the sake of finding the killer of my family, I’m thinking, if not, what’s the reason I’m staying here any longer?”

LuoXiang lowered his head, saw BaiYing’s face which was deeply bowed, lifted the young man’s chin to see his eyes deeply.

“What do you mean, of course, there are many reasons, YingYing is my concubine, if you don’t live in the palace where else will you live? Does YingYing want your house to become the Crown Prince’s government office base?”

BaiYing’s big round eyes looked at the old LuoXiang, blinking a few times with a serious look deep into the clear eyes of the Crown Prince, there was only a shadow of him there, only him.

“Your Highness”

LuoXiang pulled BaiYing’s body into his arms.

“I don’t want to hear it anymore, YingYing is forever mine, Concubine Hua belongs to the Crown Prince, nothing can change that, no matter what happens, did YingYing forget? If this Crown Prince is even prepared to chase you to the ends of the world, then what is the impossible obstacle that I can’t face for my BaiYingYing’s sake”

BaiYing’s body in LuoXiang’s arms trembled, at that moment the Crown Prince realized that the young man was so depressed that he couldn’t hold back his tears, he wrapped his arms around him. His hands hugged the Crown Prince’s waist tightly, even LuoXiang couldn’t see his face.

“YingYing”

“Servants really miss my family, why did they leave me alone? The house is now empty and cold, if I live there alone, I will definitely be very sad, not to mention starving because no one cooks food for me, also, ems, no one will be able to eat with me, servant it would be so sad to eat alone, what should I do?”

LuoXiang smiled, he stroked BaiYing’s back hair.

“This silly kid, why do you have to be alone? Didn’t I say I would always accompany you to eat? Why do you think such a pitiful thing, stupid child”

BaiYing tightened his embrace.

“Ems Your Highness”

“Shussh, Good boy, don’t cry, boys shouldn’t cry”

BaiYing let go of his embrace, wiping away his tears looking at LuoXiang with his red eyes.

“How can I’m not crying? Servant is so poor, now I am alone, and the Queen’s cooking is so delicious that it reminds me of mother’s cooking, even though she has a spicy mouth but Mother always puts a lot of meat in Ying’er’s bowl, ems, the food is delicious.”

LuoXiang didn’t know whether to cry or not, laughed at BaiYing’s face at that time, the boy actually cried like a child who had lost his kite, his eyes and nose were red like a clown, BaiYing pulled him back into his arms.

“Hehehehe this kid, later I will tell the Queen Mother to cook more lotus root for you, well, you eat it and feel touched, what a cute child”

“Your Majesty this is not funny”

But LuoXiang couldn’t hide his excitement.

“Hehehe yeah yeah, sorry, my sweet YingYing”

This is very funny, so far he has rarely seen the child cry in front of him, even it is difficult to express his sadness just like that, but seeing him cry like a kid actually made LuoXiang somewhat relieved, little by little the act to be strong and tough kid open up to him, now even crying in his arms, LuoXiang smiled, stroking BaiYing’s back hair and trying to comfort him.

“Calm down brat, LuoXiang will always be here”
