CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

453 Next Plan

Bai Ying couldn’t stop admiring the pouch with the red string hanger in his hand.

“heh, then Ying won’t hesitate, thank you sister”

Xiao Hong who had been watching with curious eyes beside Bai Ying.

“Em, does Hong got it too? Brother Su Lang said, if Xiao Hong can do some job and earn money, Hong must have a purse to put all Hong’s money, can it be used for that?”

Bai Ying nodded.

“Of course Hong, this can be used to put your money, um, Ying has several bags in the room, a little bigger from this, Ying will give Hong one later.”

Xiao Hong puffed out his mouth, though he had fallen in love with a small beautiful pouch in front of him now.

“Em, is there anything similar to this, Your Majesty?”

Bai Ying thought. Ye Mu who saw the two adorable youths in front of her finally couldn’t hold herself and covered his mouth with a chuckle. She pulled out another one from under her clothes.

.....

“hehehehe Young Master Hong, here, I’ve made another one.”

Xiao Hong’s eyes widen at the sight of the small shiny red purse that Ye Mu held out in front of him, he glanced at Bai Ying for a while before taking it from Ye Mu’s hand.

“See Your Majesty, Hong also has one, and it’s red, it’s beautiful, Hong likes it.”

Bai Ying smiled.

“Hong, don’t forget to say something to the person who gave us a gift or whatever.”

Xiao Hong raised his head, he almost forgot, the young man smiled broadly at Ye Mu.

“Hehehe thank you miss Ye”

Ye Mu smiled as if she was very proud of herself and couldn’t stop smiling.

“Hehehe, you’re welcome, Young Master Hong”

Chen Ming and Bei Yau were seen walking leisurely by the lake enjoying the cool air in the late afternoon.

Chi Yun Lake, a small lake that is made quite neatly and beautifully, with many plum blossom trees blooming on the shore, and several colourful feathered ducks, charmingly swimming here and there look so charming with their coquettish voice. The clear lake water reflects the colours of the flowers around it, as well as the blue sky wide stretches above.

When the lake was done, the sky then was getting late and reflected the clouds above it with a beautiful red colour, that’s why they named it Chi Yun (Red Cloud).

The lake made its own scene among the previously dull Xin Hua territory. That’s understandable, it’s a palace that sank for almost a decade, everything here before was looking old and boring, it was time to build something new where the tiny country could truly rise up with everything new and beautiful.

“Prince, look at those birds, how beautiful they are, they have been flying here and there but returned to that tree again,” said Bei Yau pointing towards the other side of the lake where a flock of small parrots flew and returned again to the tree trunk, which looks like they have a small party with their friends.

“Yeah, it’s probably their home already, how cute they are”

Bei Yau also pointed to some pretty feathered pheasants passing in front of them with their chicks lined up behind them.

“Wow the chicken is so beautiful, old man Pai really knows how to make this palace very beautiful” Chen Ming exclaimed.

“Yeah, this is a very beautiful palace, em, Prince, let’s go there, the place is quite shady,” said Bei Yau pointing in front of him where there was a seat facing the lake. But Chen Ming turned his head.

“Where?” he asked.

He hadn’t even finished looking when Bei Yau’s hand was already holding his.

“Come on Prince, let’s sit there for a while.”

Chen Ming stuttered though he couldn’t let go of his hand because Bei Yau had already pulled him.

“Eh Guard Bei”

While on the other side of the lake, Bai Ying and Xiao Hong were also seen enjoying the late afternoon air by picking some red water apples from the tree, this time Xiao Hong was in charge of going upstairs. As far as climbing a tree has always been Bai Ying’s weakness, it is certain that he will fall.

“Over there Hong, that’s a lot over there” Bai Ying exclaimed.

Meanwhile, right under the tree, Yan and Bi had already spread out a wide cloth for Xiao Hong to throw the fruit he had picked down.

Xiao Hong looked over at him.

“Which one, Your Majesty?”

Bai Ying pointed towards Xiao Hong.

“That’s, your upper left, a little bit to the left”

“Oh this, wait a minute”

“Be careful Hong, I won’t catch you if you fall.”

Xiao Hong tried to lift his body to reach the left side of his head where there was a bunch of water apples there hanging in sufficient quantities.

“Your Majesty, this was Your Majesty’s idea of ??getting Hong up, ouch, being a human is really troublesome, ah”

Bai Ying backed away, and kept moving back trying to look from elsewhere, he didn’t even look his back and bumped into someone who was already behind him.

“Ah”

He almost fell if it wasn’t for someone to hold his body, who else besides the Crown Prince could touch him.

“Eits, concubine Hua, what are you doing here?”

Bai Ying turned his body and looked up to see the Crown Prince who was already holding his shoulders.

“Eh Your Majesty, have you finished the meeting yet?”

Luo Xiang helped Bai Ying straighten up. He looked up at the tree where Xiao Hong took a bunch of fruits in his arms and threw them down.

“What is Xiao Hong doing climbing up a tree?” asked the Crown Prince.

Before long, Xiao Hong crept down from a fairly tall tree trunk. The youth held on to the tree trunk and lowered his feet first when his foot missed a sticking out part of the tree and almost slid down.

“Ah!”

But no, someone was already there holding his back from falling backwards.

“Oops young master Hong, you have to be careful”

Xiao Hong turned around and saw Shin Ya was already behind him.

“Eh, Lord Shin, thank you for holding on Hong.”

Shin Ya smiled.

“Of course, young master if you can’t climb a tree, it’s better not to climb it too often, just like His Majesty the Viceroy who always falls every time he climbs a tree”

Bai Ying puffed his mouth when he heard Shin Ya mention him.

“Master Shin, don’t slander my name in front of Hong, Ying didn’t fall, so far he’s only fallen once.”

Shin Ya chuckled, he lowered his head in front of Bai Ying.

“Hehehe forgive this Servant, Your Majesty, that is, of course, because His Highness the Crown Prince is always by your side, oh please forgive my impudence, what I have said, this servant is indeed a big mouth, hehehehe please forgive me”

Bai Ying looked at Shin Ya sharply.

“This Mr Shin”

Luo Xiang refrained from smiling seeing Bai Ying’s sullen face.

“Master Shin, don’t tease Ying again, look at his cheeks swelled like a balloon,” said the Crown Prince, touching Bai Ying’s round cheeks. Bai Ying turned his face to see the Crown Prince annoyed.

“Your Majesty”

Xiao Hong then approached the servants to check the results of picking quite a lot of fruit.

“Wow, this is quite a lot, Your Majesty this is very sweet” Xiao Hong exclaimed, thrusting a red water apple in front of Bai Ying.

“Of course, Hong, this is my favourite fruit, try this, Your Majesty, it’s delicious.”

Without waiting Bai Ying took one of the fruit, split it in half and thrust the half in front of the Crown Prince, while he bit into the halves. However, instead of taking his share, the Crown Prince tilted his head, taking the remaining bite of Bai Ying’s portion that had not yet entered his mouth, taking it straight from his lips.

“Ump”

Bai Ying’s eyes widened, he was somewhat surprised that the Crown Prince did so.

Luo Xiang straightened himself after taking a piece of fruit from Bai Ying’s lips, chewing it while smiling very broadly.

“Heh yeah, it’s so sweet”

Bai Ying’s face was red with embarrassment, he looked around where Shin Ya and Xiao Hong were focused on themselves and not looking at him, while the maids didn’t dare to look at them at all.

“Your Majesty this”

Luo Xiang chuckled, he pulled Bai Ying’s waist closer to his, lifted Bai Ying’s hand where there was another half of fruit, and took the piece of fruit with his mouth.

“This all is very delicious, indeed”

.....

“Your Highness.”

Bai Ying couldn’t hide his amusement as the Crown Prince’s hands grabbed his back and waist and lifted his body against him, he sniffed Bai Ying’s neck with his chin covered with thick tiny hairs from unshaven, deliberately making the boy ticklish.

“Hehehe Your Majesty please stop, this is so ticklish”

“It’s because concubine Hua who was so busy that he forgot to help this Crown Prince to shave last night, he should be taught a lesson.”

“Your Majesty”
