CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

188 Different BaiYing

The bloody battle on the river bank towards the Lost city, not just YueYang’s soldier who falls, so does the peoples dressed in black who also died covered in blood, the troop’s leader, soldier Dao, a tall, large man with slightly dark skin with a long beard on his face like a war general, raised his machete high, his burly jaws screamed to the end of his throat.

“Attack!!” and did not stop their efforts to dispel people from the Black Water Clan who were about to enter the Lost City area, just as the Crown Prince had predicted.

The sound of the soldiers’ excited shouts that were already covered in blood still sounded loud, breaking the clear sky with bright white clouds.

“Move!!!”

The sound of slashing sharp weapons and swords was unavoidable, blood spurting up to the skies, bodies being torn apart, groans, and moans of pain.

Ting ting ting ting!!

Hiaaat!!

.....

The sound of the birds singing cheerfully, the gentle breeze of the valley entering between the waving golden knitted curtains, caressing BaiYing’s light front hair gently, slowly, BaiYing opened his eyes, gloomy, looking around, the ceiling of the bed with the curtains glittering cloth from selected silk, and a very soft sheet when his hand touched the bed surface, this, very beautiful room, slowly, the young man pulled his body, his head hurt unbelievably, his body also felt sore and very tired, where is he?

.....

“Akh”

As he looked around, the door was opened from the outside, a tall man came in, it was YueWang, in a majestic garb of dominant gleaming dark blue and gold and silver trim, a beautifully carved jade hanger that waved hung from his waist, as the man entered the room and approached him, with a very wide smile.

“Sweet child, you awake? How do you feel?”

BaiYing’s round eyes saw the old man approaching, and sat on the edge of his bed, letting his big hands pat on his lap.

For a moment, BaiYing saw his face, the face of the man, who couldn’t stop smiling looking at him.

“Eh, grandpa” greet BaiYing.

YueWang chuckled, the man laughed loudly when he heard the young man calling him grandpa, raised his hand to caress the young man’s hair and cheeks.

“Hahahahaha sweet child, yes, this is your grandfather, who else is it?”

.........

In the afternoon in the room that BaiYing now stays in, ShinYa and General Po are invited to meet BaiYing, both of whom are greeted with big smiles by the boy as if nothing happened.

“Young Prince, are you all right?” ShinYa asked worriedly, General Po also held BaiYing’s hand checking his condition after YueWang separated them all night.

BaiYing smiled seeing the faces of the two men in front of him who looked very worried.

“I’m fine, just a little dizzy, grandpa”

PoYang relieved, he was able to lower his chest which had been tense, and breathed a sigh of relief, although, he felt that something was strange to him, the look in the young man’s eyes, not like the BaiYing he just know, he was like the BaiYing he knew back at his home in XianYang, instead of the young man who saw him the other day, the light in his eyes changed.

“XiaoYing, is it really okay right? Did that person hurt you?”

BaiYing frowned at General Po’s question who was still looking at him worriedly.

“Um that person? Who is it, grandpa?”

Hearing BaiYing’s answer, General Po and ShinYa glanced at each other furrowed their brows and rightly thought that if something was wrong, BaiYing had changed.

General Po saw BaiYing’s face which had not stopped smiling since earlier, although his smile seemed a bit strange, was that kid just tease them? He held Bai Ying’s hand.

“XiaoYing, we have to get out of here, we don’t know what that man had in mind, but Grandpa is worried that he can do even crazier things than this, erm tonight, Grandpa will try to find a way...” Before he could finish, BaiYing pulled his hands away, looking at General Po with wide eyes.

“What do you mean grandpa? How could Ying’er leave my grandpa alone? He needs Ying’er’s help, at least, since the palace is so big and there are still so few people living, and also, grandpa said he’d take grandma to live together, it’s definitely going to be a lot more crowded, um, grandpa Po, will also stay here right?”

General Po was getting more confused about BaiYing’s speech who was weird, he looked at ShinYa, who looked at BaiYing with his inner eyes, the young man looked fine, even his aura was getting brighter, but, Orange’s aura seemed to be surrounded by another darker aura, he lowered his body in front of BaiYing for a better view.

“Your Majesty, what has that person done to you?”

BaiYing frowned, looking at the two people who were looking at him with strange looks,

“What’s wrong with you guys? Why did master ShinYa and grandpa look at Ying’er like that? What, is something wrong?”

... ...

Brukk!!

General Po pushed YueWang with his inner strength hard against the wall, knocking everything around him.

“What have you done to XiaoYing?” shouted the man, YueWang smirked, General Po’s strength is not an ordinary figment, but, he is also not a weak person, although the man’s sudden attack surprised him, YueWang raised his hand to counterattack and threw General Po’s body against the wall.

“Brukk!!’

“Insolent! How dare you attack me, Great King of WahYe!”

PoYang approached, and the two of them met in the middle of the room which made a huge pressure that made everything at the center room of one of the pavilions blow violently, the people inside including Old Man Lao and ShinYa, who shielded themselves from the strong internal force that sucked all the air in there.

“That kid is very stubborn, he won’t just obey someone who has killed his family! Especially a person who has no compassion like you, what have you done to him!” blow after blow of force in two old men of roughly the same age ravaging the surroundings.

“He is my grandson, of course, that child will obey me, who do you think you are?” by concentrating his strength YueWang finally managed to push general Po back quite a distance from him, holding on to his two sturdy legs, the general was about to step forward and attack again but YueWang opened his palm his hand.

“Stop it or I will finish off all useless people like you!” he cried, his words made General Po who was already panting with emotion stop his movements, clenched his fists tightly, holding back the anger that had risen to the top of his head, looked at YueWang with sharp eyes.

“I will kill you! you know that, for XiaoYing’s sake, this old man can do anything, who do you think you are? After killing his parents, harming everyone he knows, coercing him, even plotting mass murder, and after that, you think you still deserve to be his grandfather? You don’t even deserve to be his servant!”

YueWang smirked, shaking off his clothes which were messy from their brief battle.

“Hehe, whether it’s worth it or not, I don’t care about it, as long as the child can be of use to me, hahahaha! this is so great, I have enormous power in my hands, WahYe palace, and a child who has Dragon blood, who can fight me now?”

General Po was about to come closer and hit the man again but ShinYa held his body, he knew the man wouldn’t be able to win against that guy.

“General, control your emotions”

PoYang held his breath, he was so angry that his chest was beating so fast it was ready to burst out, he wanted so badly to crush the man and take his heart out with his own hands, a rage he had never felt before, so much angry that it drained his energy.

“I will kill you!”

...

BaiYing stood on the edge of the cliff, where below them were so many troops that lined up neatly dominantly in gold and red armor carrying the flag and banners of the WahYe state emblem, everything YueWang had prepared long ago, of course, all members of the Blackwater Clan who had been moving underground all this time would appear on this very precise day, YueWang’s face didn’t stop smiling, he pulled BaiYing’s hand closer.

“Sweet child, look at all these people, they are well trained WahYe soldiers, very strong and observant, they will guard our country against enemy attacks”

BaiYing looked around him, later General Po and ShinYa came closer and joined behind near the pack. Old man Lao and DuGu Ye were standing not far from YueWang.

Old man Lao spread his arms to stop General Po and ShinYa from approaching.

“Stop general, you can’t come near when the country’s leaders are discussing, don’t you know rules?”

General Po tried to lower Old Man Lao’s hand, glared at him, he could break the man’s hand easily, but ShinYa’s hand held him back.

“General” he whispered, this wasn’t the right time, no matter how much YueWang needed BaiYing, he wouldn’t do anything that put his life in danger.

YueWang grabbed BaiYing’s shoulder.

“Sweet child, after all, that person can come and attack at any time, our country can be destroyed like before, Grandpa, hope this sweet child can help Grandpa and others, to avoid more unexpected victims”
