CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

351 Lets ride

SuLang finally took a deep breath.

“Well it can’t be helped, I can’t force you anyway, come on, let me check on your wound, we will continue our journey after this, at least we should change your bandage, isn’t it,” said SuLang who without BaiYing expected pulled his leg to examine the wound behind the bandage.

“Luckily I carry my ointment everywhere, it’s a very potent medicine, let’s change your bandage and...” However, SuLang’s hand movement stopped, after he removed the bandage that was wrapped around BaiYing’s ankle, he almost couldn’t believe what he saw.

“This”

BaiYing pulled his leg quickly, of course, all his wounds were healed, even the scars were gone, this was not an oddity for him, but not for Young Master Su who couldn’t believe what he saw.

“Eh he, young master’s medicine is really great, look, the scars are also gone, the whole night doesn’t hurt either, hehe, it is really great.”

SuLang stuttered a bit, is it true that the ointment from his family is that great? He had never used it before, so he didn’t really know what it was.

“Eh yah, this is great.”

As they continued their journey, XiaoHei young master ShiShen’s horse followed them and stood with SuLang’s horse, at least BaiYing didn’t have to ride SuLang’s horse all the way.

.....

However, he had never ridden a horse himself before, the last time he rode in the palace and had to fall and be unconscious for several days, he was not fit to ride a horse, if there was a carriage for him but, that was highly unlikely.

“Ouch” How is this? BaiYing thought, he was forced to ride his own horse, couldn’t he have to ride with young master Sulang right? After all, if the Crown Prince found out, he would be furious and might cut off the young master’s head. Remember what the Crown Prince told him back then.

“Remember this! If anyone grabs your body other than me, I’ll cut off that person’s head” that was terrible, BaiYing thought breaking his memory of the Crown Prince’s angry face, if that really happened, he couldn’t imagine what would happen, and, he really can’t remove the Crown Prince’s face from his head ever since they separated, and this is very painful for his stomach.

SuLang who saw BaiYing standing beside his horse offered to help the young man,

“Here, I’ll help you” BaiYing couldn’t help but need help, the horse is very tall, what if it moves before it is up, it will fall down ridiculously right?

“E hey, thank you”

Young master Su held his hand on the big tall horse, SuLang smiled, even BaiYing’s hand was very soft and smooth, his little long slender fingers, he was more curious about his face, when BaiYing felt he had stepped on the pedal horse, SuLang’s hand suddenly pulled him.

“Ah!” until unavoidable, the young man slipped from his step, fortunately, young master Su caught him right away.

“Oops!”

And that’s when, SuLang managed to see BaiYing’s face behind the hood, at a glance, that very smooth and white face, SuLang smiled, when BaiYing tried to stand up by himself SuLang’s hands had already parted his hood to reveal his face.

“Young master!” and BaiYing missed, the hood was off his head and young master SuLang had seen his face clearly, very clearly.

“Oh” he was at a loss for words, BaiYing’s face which was in his arms, smooth white skin, sharp nose, thick eyebrows, long eyelashes with big reddish-brown eyes, and, red plumpy lips, SuLang swallowed hard, what has he seen now? A Man? Or a fairy?

“Young master Su, please let go of your hand,” said BaiYing trying to release SuLang’s hand, for a moment the young man was stunned in place until he realized quickly and lowered BaiYing’s feet to the ground.

“F-forgive my insolent, forgive me”

SuLang’s heart was beating fast, way too fast than he expected, how could he see someone with such a beautiful face, this must be a dream, he must be dreaming, he pinches on his own cheek hard.

“Ah” and it wasn’t a dream, because it’s hurt.

BaiYing who was annoyed that the young master did what he forbid him to do, trying so hard to ride his own horse, his eyes fixed on SuLang sharply and didn’t pay any heed.

“Cant believe this person”

“Eh forgive me, wait for me!” Young master SuLang who realized that he had been left by BaiYing who seemed to be so angry with him, hurriedly mounted his horse.

This wasn’t a dream, and the child was right in front of him, the beautiful beggar.

“Eh Ying, uh, XiaoYing wait!” she cried, her face couldn’t stop smiling, it was a very beautiful morning, as beautiful as he felt now.

“Eh XiaoYing, please forgive me, I didn’t mean to, eh”

BaiYing ignored it, he stomped his horse quickly down the path leading out of the next town.

“Hiatt hiatt!”

....

XiaoHei was so obedient, the big black horse knew that BaiYing wasn’t very good at riding so the big horse ran at a high speed but smooth with long legs that stomped the dusty road.

The border of a small town on the edge of a large river that is bustling with traders of river products, HeiAn, along the road next to it is a large river full of residents and immigrants selling wares and also busy bidding, the small town is visited by many residents who are looking for fresh river products such as big fish, even huge size of frogs.

“Flying fish Blue Flying fish! Fresh from the upstream of the river, five taels for one!” cried an old merchant, a stocky woman who was holding her child approached.

“Old man, how much does this one flying fish?”

The merchant smiled, an old man with a dark, scrawny face with clearly visible muscles on his body and even his face.

“Five taels per one, this is fresh from upstream”

“How could it so expensive, five taels, such a skinny fish, two taels!”

“Can’t, madam, it’s hard to catch the fish, at this season the fish usually gather downstream, this is a very good and nutritious fish”

“Then, three taels!”

The voices of another merchants and customers were heard loudly.

BaiYing and SuLang’s horses had stopped at the end of the road.

SuLang managed to catch up with BaiYing who was reluctant to look at him, apparently, he still hold a grudge on him.

“XiaoYing, er, I mean, little brother Ying, please forgive me, I didn’t mean to, uh, how about as an apology, I treat you to an all-you-can-eat lunch today, erm, there’s a good restaurant, and anyway, this robe is really ugly and stink, let’s buy a new one, well, at least one that can cover you from the wind and cold night air”

BaiYing didn’t want to care about it, if he didn’t need directions to CuiAn he’d better stay away from this person, obviously, this person isn’t someone he can rely on, but, he is very hungry, how is this?

“Krukkkk” the sound of his stomach even beats the snort of XiaoHei who shook his head at the loud sound, as if making fun of him.

“Heeeee”

“Shut up XiaoHei”

Unable to resist, BaiYing finally complied with young master Su’s wish, including giving him a more decent robe for him to wear, at least, a new one that doesn’t smell.

SuLang’s eyes couldn’t take his eyes off of BaiYing’s beautiful clothes beneath his shabby robes, they were definitely not clothes that even a young master like him could have, and BaiYing’s face, obviously that kid really attracted attention, how could there be such a beautiful person in this very boring world, thought young master Su who couldn’t stop admiring BaiYing’s pretty face.

“Wow, what have I done to deserve this kind of honour?”

Soon, the two of them were sitting at one of the tables in the small locals dining enjoying their lunch. The dining, which was visited by many immigrants, was certainly quite crowded, as seen in the corner of several youths seriously listening to stories from historical tellers, the village elders of HeiAn, a storyteller who knows lots of interesting stories around the areas for everyone who curious, including the visitors.

“That huge dragon fiercely tried to absorb all the energy from Young King PaiYun, with its huge body coiled above the viceroy trying to swallow him up, however, the viceroy’s strength is not comparable to that dragon, instead of weakening but the little body of King PaiYun getting stronger, he even made the white dragon weaken and almost lost its earthly body, including its divine spirit.”

Several teenagers who heard it opened their eyes wide as if amazed by the excited story of the white hair old man.

“Is that true? Then, happened to that dragon?” asked one of the teenagers sitting in the front.

“The Viceroy obviously forgave him, he give him some of his spiritual energy back so that dragon could return to his pagoda to meditate, and since then, PaiHua’s sky has become very clear, the air is very beautiful and warm, not as hot as it used to be, even recently it rains frequently. ”

“Wow, the Young King PaiYun is really great!” exclaimed several children.
