CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

249 Afterwards

“Forgive servant, Your Majesty, right now, His Majesty the Young King’s life, is only an inch away from great danger, the internal energy churning within his body is disturbing his organs, the heart is the most affected, I am worried, with this, His Highness will be very vulnerable to back in danger if he pushes himself again” explained healer Ou after lowering his head in front of the Crown Prince.

LuoXiang looked at the bed where BaiYing lay still in a state of unconsciousness even though it had been more than two days. The Crown Prince hastily ordered BeiYau to fetch the Profound Physician from the medicinal valley as soon as possible to the palace, Master OuYang.

“What do you mean by vulnerable? YingYing just lost his inner strength, all the dragon blood in his body was gone, and back to ErWang, there shouldn’t be any inner strength left right?”

Physician Ou raised his head, the old man stroked his white beard before speaking.

“This, Your Majesty, that Dragon’s blood, is still remaining in His Majesty the King’s body, even though ErWang has fully obtained his energy, but His Majesty the King himself also has a very great regeneration, even ErWang won’t be able to receive all of it, however, the problem now, His Majesty the viceroy was too hasty in taking it out that caused several blood vessels to burst and be injured. It took a long time to heal, even though His Majesty the King had internal energy, and most importantly, in his body, all the energy was still swirling and jostling to get out, it feared, if the energy come out again near the future, it would make His Majesty in grave danger”

“So, you mean, YingYing might already carry such a large ball of energy within his body?”

Physician Ou nodded, he lowered his head back in front of the Crown Prince.

“It’s more or less like that Your Majesty, in order to prevent the energy from rushing out, His Majesty the King needs to do regular continuous meditation with the channeling of pure energy every morning, and if Your Majesty is willing, the Medicine Valley might be a very suitable and safest place for His Majesty to practicing”

LuoXiang thought, now he was thinking while stroking BaiYing’s hair who had fallen asleep again in his arms.

.....

“heh Medicine valley”

........

Sreengg!

The sound of metal doors colliding against the cold floor, a high-security prison room located in the northern palace a bit far from the main imperial palace. It is located in a different complex from the palace and everyone calls it the investigator’s headquarters. BaoYue’s office was also within the compound.

Lately, because many high-profile criminals who fought the cold palace state were reactivated.

And the prison is at the back of the investigator’s headquarters complex.

The sound of wood scraping against the floor echoed in the room where only one or two of the country’s most dangerous convicts were living, one of whom was sitting leisurely on the couch enjoying his breakfast.

YiXing, who had half his body badly injured after being rescued by BeiYau from the rubble which left him badly injured, even part of his face was still covered in wounds, the handsome face that used to be shining now looked pitiful in the shabby clothes of a state convict. However, the man was still grinning when he saw the Crown Prince and the others approaching.

“Hey, it’s a very bright morning, apparently someone walked carelessly to visit on this beautiful morning”

LuoXiang sat on the chair that had been provided by the prison guard, BeiYau was seen behind him, the man tightly gripped the hilt of his sword holding himself back when he saw his older brother who he used to know quite well.

“Master Yi, you know that the death penalty awaits you, but, your face is always smiling brightly, it’s very ironic,” said the Crown Prince very calmly.

YiXing who was sitting on the thatched divan enjoying his breakfast smiled, he glanced at the Crown Prince sharply.

“Hehe, die, it’s not scary, what’s there to be afraid of, unfortunately, after death I can’t do anything to you, if I were to become a ghost, the first person I would look for would be you”

Hearing that the Crown Prince smirked.

“Hehe, you really like me that much huh? You’re still thinking about this Crown Prince even to your death”

YiXing laughed loudly.

“Hahahahaha that may be true, strange indeed, all these years I thought about ruining your arrogant face day and night, I thought of you more than beautiful Ying”

LuoXiang smirked.

“Hey, you realize your obsession makes you really crazy?”

YiXing took a deep breath, he took a sip of his tea.

“A madman is, well, perhaps, an unlucky lunatic.”

The Crown Prince saw YiXing’s face, had it not been for what BeiYau said, he would have definitely let his father send that lunatic to the border to undergo imprisonment for the rest of his life, however, he couldn’t do it, and the person smiled very slyly as if he felt he was already at the upper hand, even in his current state.

It was in the cave.

The cave was starting to crumble, soon everyone in the cave would probably die silly if they didn’t go out immediately, and that included BeiYau who was still trying to help YiXing get out of the boulder that was on top of him, if not for the man’s inner strength he might have died instantly, because of the weight of the giant rock that was pressing half of his body.

BeiYau aimed his sword to slash at the boulder, he had to at least muster his inner strength if he wanted to do so, even though he himself was already badly injured.

Several times Bei managed to slash at the top of the rock, thus exerting all his strength to crush the rock, however, the great vibration from the cave that kept on collapsing made him fall, the boulder that was about to shatter again rolled onto YiXing’s body.

“Ahhh!!”

Fresh blood kept coming out of his mouth.

BeiYau’s eyes went wide, there was no way that person would survive his injuries, he got back to his feet holding the hilt of his sword firmly, he’d better get out and protect the Crown Prince than spend his time there, but, YiXing’s laughter stopped him.

“Hahahahaha this is a very sad ending, even in this life I don’t have the chance to have the beauty, but, at least I have a chance when we meet in the afterlife, soon”

BeiYau’s eyes widened wide, he drew closer.

“What do you mean? Who do you mean by beauty?”

YiXing who had been waiting to die laughed, even though his mouth was full of blood he was still laughing very loudly.

“Hahahahaha! Who do you think I am? My vital acupoint is specially made for him, if that kid doesn’t die, then my reputation as the Devil Finger of the Demon valley clan will be tainted, he is just waiting for the right time to explode, sooner or later, his beautiful heart will be crushed by his own inner strength, his power will consume him slowly, and you, won’t be able to do anything, in this world, only I who can save it”

BeiYau clenched his fists, seeing the man filled with anger, he wished he could immediately slash his neck and ended his laughter, however, Viceroy WahYe’s life was in his hands.

“God damn it!”

Back to the prison.

The Crown Prince looked at YiXing, then took a breath.

“Tell me what are your terms?”

YiXing smiled.

“Hehe terms? I don’t have any, just let me touch Ying’s smooth body to my heart’s content”

YiXing’s words made LuoXiang furious.

“Watch your word Master Yi! Don’t ever think dirty about my concubine! I can cut off your limbs so pitifully!”

YiXing just laughed casually.

He couldn’t help but laugh again when he saw the Crown Prince’s eyes widen as if they were about to swallow him.

“Hahahaha Your Highness the Crown Prince, that, maybe one way to save him, with me, is to have intercourse with that beauty, then he will survive, otherwise, be prepared to say goodbye to him because at any time the child might die instantly”

LuoXiang didn’t hold it in any longer, he stood up quickly grabbed BeiYau’s longsword, and aimed it at YiXing’s neck which was quite close to him, even though the iron bars were a barrier that didn’t allow him to cut the neck of the man with the pitiful face that couldn’t stop smiling.

“Insolent! I will torture you slowly until you beg me to kill you!!”.

.........

The sound of water flowing along with the ripples in the fish pond.

Very calm atmosphere in the Plum pavilion which Lan’er now occupied, at BaiYing’s request she stayed there to be closer to the West Dragon pavilion where he was living now.

The sound of the wind blowing slowly, the sky was not so bright even though it was just past noon, the air was still warm even though the wind was blowing quite cold.

Lan’er brushed BaiYing’s long hair who was sitting in front of her, the two of them sat on the wooden deck in the backyard of the pavilion overlooking the fish pond, BaiYing’s favorite place from all the place there.
