436 Along the Street

Heeee.

The horse neighs loudly when suddenly the cliff in front of their path slowly slides down.

Small and rather large stones rolled from the top of the cliffs sliding to cover the path that the Crown Prince’s entourage was about to pass. Bei Yau pulled the reins of his horse and turned at Ge Lu and Su Lang along with a few local guides at the back. He waved his hand for everyone to move to a safer location, while far ahead of them there was only one road flanked by cliffs and ravines on the other side.

The super curious Bai Ying and Xiao Hong peeked from the curtain.

“Wow, it’s a landslide, how do we get through it?”

Bei Yau approached Luo Xiang who was sitting on his horse in front of the carriage.

“Report Your Majesty, it seems we can’t take the risk to go this way, along the path are cliffs and ravines, and the cliffs look so fragile and easy to slide, I suggest we take another route, Your Majesty,” said the young guard, bowing his head.

Luo Xiang looked around, although the weather was quite sunny that afternoon, it was possible for an avalanche to occur which would harm the group, he had better think about taking another route. Luo Xiang nodded.

“Let’s find another way Bei”

.....

Bei Yau nodded, he waved his hand at Ge Lu and Su Lang who were standing beside Chen Ming’s empty carriage. Meanwhile, the young prince sat on the horse with the others.

“We’re turned back!” Bei Yau exclaimed.

The coachman brought the carriage back to its original path, stopping near the wider road to have a little rest.

Luo Xiang dismounted from his horse, parting the curtain of the carriage. He reached out his hand to Bai Ying.

“Ying, do you want to ride a horse with Brother? It’s quite sunny outside, we’ll head back to the city to find another route”

Bai Ying looked at Luo Xiang with big eyes, glanced at Xiao Hong for a while then stretched out his to Luo Xiang. Slowly the young man lowered his head and got off the carriage. Xiao Hong followed behind him.

“Are we not going down that road, Your Majesty? Then where are we going?” Bai Ying asked.

Luo Xiang took Bai Ying’s hand and helped him onto his horse, while Xiao Hong had to learn to ride his horse.

“Be careful Hong”

Su Lang helped him ride Bai Ying’s black horse who always joined the group and Xiao Hei didn’t seem to like Xiao Hong hopping on his back.

Bai Ying only smiled in amusement at Xiao Hei’s complaint.

“Heeee”

“Hey, I’m only riding you for a little while, what you looking at me like that?” exclaimed Xiao Hong, patting the black horse’s neck in annoyance.

“Heeee”

Bai Ying laughed louder as the horse continued to grumble.

“Hahahaha”

.....

Luo Xiang held the reins past Bai Ying’s waist who was sitting so close to him. The horse’s steps slowly crossed the small road leading to the outskirts of Yang Chou, and they headed back to the town. Bai Ying’s long and silky hair was swayed by a gentle breeze on Luo Xiang’s face, strands of hair that were extremely fine and fragrant.

“Erm, your hair smells so good my little concubine”

Bai Ying slightly shivered as Luo Xiang’s hand touched his neck and brushed his hair to his shoulders.

“Your Majesty”

The Crown Prince closed his eyes, soaking in the smell of Bai Ying which was so tempting, even more so when he was sweating like that. He kissed the young man’s neck.

“Erm, I feel like hugging you all the time, your smell makes all the tiredness go away”

Bai Ying laughed amusedly.

“Hehe Your Majesty, stop it, we are outside”

Luo Xiang hugged Bai Ying from behind and held his hand softly.

“My Ying Ying’s hands are so delicate, next time don’t use your delicate hands to do anything dangerous, for that part, let your big brother take care of it, my Realm King.”

Bai Ying smiled amusedly.

“Hey Your Majesty, how can that be, I’m quite happy to be able to do something, it turns out that having so much power is quite fun too, I can help even just a little”

“Yeah, just a little”

The Crown Prince’s big tall horse walked gracefully in the centre of the group, while Bei Yau was at the very front and Ge Lu was at the back. Chen Ming in the middle was accompanied by Su Lang and Xiao Hong who were still having a bit of trouble with Xiao Hei’s stubborn big black horse.

The group entered the main city road again, to be able to go to the west side of the city to get out the group needed to go around the market in the middle of the city which was always crowded in the late afternoon.

“Wow, that’s so cute, can we buy it?” Xiao Hong exclaimed looking at some children who were running around with colourful paper windmills in their hands.

He had never seen such an object so of course, the young bird was very amazed by it.

“It’s just a child’s toy, Hong,” said Chen Ming.

Xiao Hong smiled widely, looking at Su Lang with pleading eyes.

“Come on Mr Su, please buy it for Hong, please please”

Su Lang who was riding beside him swallowed his saliva, Xiao Hong’s pretty big and shining eyes made him awry.

“Eh th-that” he couldn’t do anything because Chen Ming’s eyes were fixed on him, but the young prince then averted his gaze, which probably means he allowed it.

Xiao Hong clapped his hands cheerfully when he saw Su Lang get off his horse and buy one or two windmills made of colourful paper.

“Wow, thank you Mr Su” Like a child who just got his toy, Xiao Hong couldn’t hide his joy.

Meanwhile, Su Lang approached Chen Ming and handed one in front of the young prince. Chen Ming looked at Su Lang sharply.

“What does this mean?”

Su Lang smiled.

“Eh, Your Majesty, it’s like this, because the seller saw Your Majesty, he gave me another extra, this is for Your Majesty.”

Chen Ming looked at the colourful windmill in Su Lang’s hand, who did the bodyguard think he was? A kid? Chen Ming averted his gaze.

“This is a child’s toy, I’m not a kid anymore”

Su Lang pulled his lips.

“Well then, I’ll just give it to the children.”

The young bodyguard was about to walk away, but Chen Ming’s voice which changed his mind very quickly stopped him.

“Why give it to them? Give it to me, who knows Xiao Ying will like it later”

Su Lang smiled. Although a bit shy but Prince Chen Ming finally took the pinwheel that was the size of the palm of his hand.

When the group had re-entered the city street, suddenly someone came running from the front.

“Help! Young Masters, please help us!” An old man ran up and plopped down in the middle of the road where the group was about to pass, Bei Yau’s horse nearly ran over him. The young guard pulled the reins quickly so that the two front legs of the horse lifted up.

“Heeeee!!!”

Even the big burly brown horse was startled and almost stepped on the old man who had lowered his body to his knees right in front of the group.

Heeee!!

“Insolent! Who dares to block the way!” cried Bei Yau angrily.

Bei Yau looked at the old man who had lowered his body deeply on the ground, not caring that horses and carriages might step on him.

The Crown Prince’s horse also had to suddenly stop when he saw Bei Yau and the little guards stop. Bai Ying, who was sitting on the horse with the Crown Prince almost fell over because of it.

“Bei what happened?” asked Luo Xiang while holding Bai Ying’s body tightly.

Bei Yau turned his head, then looked at the old man who didn’t even move in the middle of the road, deliberately blocking them.

“Your Majesty”

Luo Xiang looked at the old man who was peeking up at the Crown Prince and Bai Ying, the man swallowed his saliva whole.

“Eulk”

Bei Yau looked at the old man sharply.

“Old man, what do you mean by throwing your body in the middle of the street like this? Do you want to die?” he exclaimed.

The old man lowered his whole body until his head knelt on the ground.

“Please forgive this old servant, Young Master, but, please help our lady, only Young Master who can save her, please Young Master, help us”

Luo Xiang frowned. The incident certainly became the centre of attention of everyone on the street to invite voices.

“Is that the old gardener at the Governor’s house?”

“Yeah, he is, what is he doing there? Are he tired of living already?”

.....

Bei Yau looked at the Crown Prince. Of course, unwilling to have anything to do with the people in the city which made them delay their trip. Bei Yau understood that so he ordered the little guard nearby to pull the old man out of the way.

“Young master, help us! Young master, Servant begs for Young Master’s generosity!”
