CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

284 Sleepwalking

“What are you thinking anyway? Everything will be fine Ying, as long as we are here those people will not invade the Clan, let alone Elder Yi, who can stand against him?”

BaiYing looked at the Crown Prince for a moment.

“Your Majesty, then, Your Majesty won’t be returning to the palace anytime soon?”

Hearing that question the Crown Prince stuttered, would he continue to lie to BaiYing about their plans to return to the palace in the near future?

“Em that”

“Ying’er, feeling fine since Elder Yi blocked my blood path, I feel like things are back to normal, I don’t think we need to stay here any longer right? His Majesty the Emperor must have asked Your Majesty to return to the palace immediately”

“Um, how did YingYing know about the matter?”

BaiYing turned his head and leaned back.

“I just know, with His Majesty’s temper, it is impossible not to ask Your Majesty to get back to the palace as soon as possible, he will say that many administrative tasks are hampered, there are many reports to be examined, many state affairs and so on”

.....

Crown Prince Smiling, he hugged BaiYing with both hands from behind tightly.

“My Em YingYing is really smart, he did send a letter yesterday, the old man doesn’t know that we are not here to play, he is just not satisfied to see other people taking a short break, that senile old man”

BaiYing smiled at the Crown Prince’s words.

“Hehehe I can imagine His Majesty’s face when he said the contents of the letter”

“Oh yeah? Why should my YingYing have to imagine someone else’s face, this brat?” The Crown Prince’s mischievous hand wrapped around BaiYing’s waist until the boy squirmed in amusement.

“Hahahaha Your Majesty stop”

“I don’t think about his face, just think of his face when he grumbles”

“What is the different!”

BaiYing can’t go anywhere as the Crown Prince’s hands kept tickling all over his body.

“Your Majesty please stop!”

.....

Night came, the sound of crickets and other nocturnal animals could be heard faintly from a distance.

Elder Yi stood on the front porch of the bungalow enjoying the night view with a large round moon hanging at the borderless sky in front of him, accompanied by a jug of wine he got from the city.

The silver-haired man turned his head when he heard footsteps approaching, the Crown Prince who appeared from inside the house.

“Your Majesty, what made Your Majesty leave the room tonight? Does Your Majesty has trouble in your heart and are unable to sleep?”

Crown Prince walked slowly past Elder Yi and sat down on a small chair on the terrace.

The night air was warm enough that he didn’t feel as cold as other nights.

“Elder Yi, we will return to the palace in two days, according to Elder Yi, YingYing’s condition could deteriorate if he can’t reverse his own energy, but so far, his is fine, are you just scaring me?”

Elder Yi smiled, he turned to look at the face of the Crown Prince who looked troubled, he knew the young man had thought about it from the start which made him restless and have difficulty sleeping.

“Hehe, Your Majesty don’t worry too much, XiaoYing is in good hands, this servant is Great Master BaoYi, in terms of inner strength no one can beat me”

Crown Prince didn’t react, he was too used to that man’s overconfidence, he know how that man was able to conquer the world of martial arts with his high ability and confidence back then, he indeed not an ordinary person.

“Tell me what is your plan really is?”

Elder Yi touched his smooth, beardless chin, he was used to it and enjoyed doing it.

“Ehm, I didn’t expect that in my nearly a hundred years I can still accept a new disciple, XiaoYing is very talented, this is really a very good opportunity for both parties, hahahaha” The man laughed out loud.

Crown Prince was about to stop the man’s laughter, it was already night many people would hear it, but just as he raised his hand someone appeared from behind the door.

“Hoaa Your Majesty, why is Your Majesty out here? I’ve been looking for everywhere.”

Crown Prince’s eyes widened, BaiYing was suddenly there, he didn’t move as the young man approached him and sat on his lap.

“Eh Y-YingYing? Why did you come out?”

The youth fell back asleep on the Crown Prince’s lap, Elder Yi peeking at him.

“Looks like he’s sleepwalking, look at that face, he’s so cute”

Elder Yi was about to touch BaiYing’s cheek but the Crown Prince’s hand brushed it off.

“Elder Yi please mind your hands.”

The Crown Prince lifted BaiYing’s body and carried him who was sleeping back into the bungalow, the young man squirmed and wrapped his arms around the Crown Prince’s neck.

“Emh Your Majesty the sweet potato is delicious, sweet, emh”

“You, since when are you sleepwalking? Luckily you didn’t walk out of the bungalow.”

Elder Yi chuckled, continuing to drink his wine.

“Heh young people nowadays, too much energy and so excited, really jealous to see them”

Elder Yi looked up at the moon again, so he took a deep breath.

“Heh, little brother Yi, how are you now?”

,.....

The sun shines brightly in the very rich and green land of the Golden Buffalo mountain and its surroundings.

Especially at the Valley of Medicine.

The lights passed through the gaps in the walls and windows in the room located on the top floor. It shone on BaiYing’s gentle face who slowly opened his eyes, blinking a few times trying to adjust and get used to the bright light hitting his clear eyeballs.

BaiYing turned his head, found Crown Prince who’s sleeping so close to him, still hugging his waist, Crown Prince is very alert, no matter how deep he slept is, the slightest movement would wake him up, and BaiYing trying to be very careful not to disturb him.

The young man smiled, Crown Prince’s face was indeed very handsome, peerless, long pointed nose, big eyes with large folds, thick black eyebrows, thin lips with a masculine solid jaw, from any angle, he was indeed very attractive, it’s not so strange is so many high ranks officials family competed to give their daughters to be his concubines.

And after thinking about it, the reason his parents used to say that his sister ran away from the marriage with the Crown Prince was just a charade, it was not true that his sister refused to be the concubine because the Crown Prince was known to be ugly and disgusting, it was just a trick of his parents to convinced him to leave the house and entered the palace, because the palace, was probably the safest place his father could think of, if not because of him forgetting that he once had a soulmate who would die for him, as he had before.

What had happened to him all this time, had it ever happened, or was it just his imagination?

And now, with all that happened to him until this moment, sleeping and waking up early and being able to see Crown Prince lying right beside him, he wished he could enjoy this as long as he could, but, is that also possible?

The life of an innocent and stupid HuaBaiYing, not as smooth as he thought, is a weak kid who can’t do anything, even climb a tree, is this his good or bad luck for him?

But, he really wished he could stop time and everything stay like this,

The young man raised his hand, touched the tip of Crown Prince’s nose, thin and plump lips, until the young man opened his mouth and bit Bai Ying’s index finger, even though his eyes were still closed it seemed that the Crown Prince had woken up.

“Um, does YingYing admire my handsome good looks?”

BaiYing smiled, as usual, Crown Prince is known to be very confident and good at teasing him, if not for being infatuated with him this man would have had countless women out there who would die for him, not because he is a Crown Prince, but because of his very outspoken and sweet mouthed he is.

“Hehe, why is Your Majesty always praising yourself?”

Crown Prince shifted his body, wrapped his arms around BaiYing’s waist, and rested his head on his shoulder.

“Hem, it can be helped, I have to be like that or else my YingYing won’t admit how extraordinary this Crown Prince is.”

BaiYing smiled, the Crown Prince he knew so well, the chubby little kid in his memory had always spoken confidently since long ago, he even shouted loudly that one day he would rule the world and BaiYing would accompany him by his side, and, he might make it happen.

“Hehe, Your Highness”

The Crown Prince opened his eyes, looked at BaiYing’s face which was so close to him, BaiYing turned his head in surprise when he found the Crown Prince’s eyes were already right in front of his eyes looked carefully.

“What do you have in your mind?”

“Em, Your Majesty, Your Majesty does not need to worry too much about me, I will practice very hard from Elder Yi, will try to be stronger and be able to help Your Majesty.”

Hearing that Crown Prince widened his eyes, did the young man overhear their conversation last night? But he couldn’t show that he was surprised to hear that. He got up and sat down, staying calm and relaxed.

“Em, really, how did YingYing know that Elder Yi would do that?”
