CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

252 Medicine Valley

Their main role is to protect the valley from the touch of ignorant hands and irresponsible people who come to plunder as they please regardless of the preservation of nature, and not a few looters who died ridiculously because of the savage forest, the big and strange animals that were there, the locals who knew, of course, wouldn’t dare to go there if they knew they wouldn’t be able to get out alive.

It is located under the Golden Buffalo mountain which is known to have a balance between the energy of the sun and the moon which makes all types of treatment carried out in the valley reach their maximum point compared to anywhere else. That’s why the school, which has a lot of young and senior students, welcomes citizen or newcomer who comes for treatment at the front yard of the clan.

But the healer Ou never asked for anything from his patients, most of them came empty-handed and came home with quite a lot of medicine, guarding the valley with all the peerless gifts of nature that are useful to others is a gift that is worth more than anything.

The Crown Prince’s entourage will occupy a large bungalow on the east side of the clan, the bungalow with a two-story main building has ten large rooms, each with a washroom in it, at behind the building there’s a large room for guards and servants.

In order to avoid unnecessary circumstances, the Crown Prince asked Physician Ou to keep their real identity as a secret and said that the Crown Prince and the others were officials who come from the Capital to study the way of practice of the Medicine Valley and were doing treatment for BaiYing at the same time. The Crown Prince with BaiYing, bringing BeiYau, ChenMing, and ShinYa, as well as Lan’er who didn’t want to be left behind, BaiYing’s maids who didn’t want to be away from their concubines, as well as a few maids and young guards from the palace, some of BeiYau’s tough men.

And, although he didn’t like the idea of ??bringing criminal YiXing into their entourage, the Crown Prince had no other choice, right now, perhaps only that lecherous person who could cure BaiYing, according to healer Ou, if they don’t neutralize the fierce energy inside BaiYing immediately, He might not have a chance to celebrate his nineteenth birthday next year.

“Brother YoTang!”

BaiYing couldn’t wait to get off the carriage upon arrival at the Medicine Valley, where several young people were at the front serving patients who came from the surrounding area.

YoTang who was standing with his fellow teacher grinding medicine widen his eyes, the big young man didn’t expect that the entourage his teacher said would be coming would actually be BaiYing, and the Crown Prince.

.....

“Brother Ying!”

The young man runs closer. Couldn’t wait to hug the kid, but, the sharp eyes of the big tall man behind him already staring at him.

“Ahem!”

“Older brother! We meet again, Ying’er misses brother TangTang so much!”

That little brat doesn’t know how to behave like an honorable concubine, much less a Viceroy, thought LuoXiang shaking his head.

Physician Ou came out to greet, the old man immediately lowered his head to salute but the man almost forgot that at that time the Crown Prince did not come as the Crown Prince.

“Eh Greetings hon.. er welcome Young Master, everyone, welcome to the Medicine Valley, servant felt so very honored all young master stop by my ramshackle hut”

LuoXiang glanced at the healer Ou and others, the few old men behind him, and many students who were all standing behind him, all dressed in light rush-colored clothes with boring patterns, only a thin layer of clothing with thicker undergarments to keep out the cold. This Medicine Valley already looked boring from the start seeing their faces which could only smile broadly.

As the spokesperson, of course, it was ShinYa who came forward.

“Uhm healer Ou, Thanks for inviting us, If you don’t mind, we’ve just had a very tiring journey, and YingYing needs a lot of rest hopefully healer Ou has prepared everything for us” said the young shaman clenching his hands in front of the healer with a wrinkled face and all-white hair.

The healer nodded with a smile.

“Hehehehe of course Master Shin, everything is well prepared, please follow me”

ShinYa and the servants immediately followed the healer Ou who personally escorted the group to their temporary residence. LuoXiang approached BaiYing who was still busy chatting with YoTang, grabbed the young man’s hand, and led him away while he was still busy talking.

“Let’s have a rest”

BaiYing waved his hand at YoTang.

“We’ll talk again later, brother!!” cried Bai Ying.

YoTang nodded, a big smile still on the young man’s face even though BaiYing had been pulled away like a child.

“You, look at your tired face, your hands are so cold.” The Crown Prince rubbed BaiYing’s palms, smoothing his messy hair.

“Your Majesty, I’m hungry”

“What do you want to eat? Yan and Bi brought a lot of groceries, and in the city, we have also bought a lot of food, we have whatever you want”

“Hehehe Your Majesty, we live in school, not in the forest, we have all food be provided here”

“Well anyway, I don’t like to eat just any kind of food, fortunately, your maids are so good at cooking, they are quite useful too”

“Hehehe of course Your Majesty, my sisters are the best!”

Yan and Bi who were walking behind the Crown Prince and BaiYing didn’t stop smiling, two people in front of them talking about them.

While YoTang went back to his work, some of his fellow disciples come approached.

“Eh brother Yo, is that the observer group from the capital? They all look so young,” said Hai’er, YoTang’s junior.

YoTang nodded, he couldn’t tell anyone that the group was from the palace, especially the Crown Prince and Viceroy WahYe, they would all be shocked later.

“Hehe yeah, they’re young officials who just passed the entrance test, eh, but their ranks are very high you know, especially the one wearing that beautiful blue dress”

What YoTang meant was LuoXiang, who certainly stood out the most because of his stature. who was tall and stoic, a stern face, serious without the slightest smile, certainly not towards BaiYing, from any angle one looked at, even if they didn’t know who the real Crown Prince was, they could still feel a very strong leader aura attached to him.

“Yeah, that person doesn’t seem like an ordinary person, but, the kid beside him, does, that his brother?”

YoTang stuttered, he was only about to answer when his other disciples had already responded.

“The one in the light yellow dress, is he a boy or a girl? His face is so cute.”

Another replied.

“Yes, he has a smooth and delicate face like a girl’s, his smiles are so refreshing, they indeed good looking young masters who are very pleasing to the eye”

The youngster named aHai nudged YoTang’s arm.

“Yeah, you guys seem very familiar, what’s his name? Can we get to know him?”

YoTang’s eyes glared at his junior.

“You want to die? If you still want to live well, don’t even think about it.”

Of course, his loud voice made his younger siblings protest at the same time.

“Why really? You are very stingy, come on, brother Yo”

YoTang tried to avoid them, he could spill the tea if he talk longer, and because of angry.

“You guys don’t just make noise, hurry to get back to work! If not, I’ll report it to the teacher,”

All the siblings shouted.

“Akh brother Yo is not cool”

“Yes, he’s lousy”

YoTang frowned, most of his juniors were new disciples who had only been there for a few months, they were still wild and not disobedient, of course, it would be very difficult to teach the children from the villages and towns around the Medicine Valley who deliberately came to gain knowledge, and although the Medicine Valley did not lack students but they did need a successor generation to replace the disciples who are retired and old.

“Brat!” YoTang cursed in his heart.

YoTang still glanced at the Crown Prince and BaiYing’s entourage who had disappeared behind the corner of the road leading to the inside of the clan complex, he was very worried about BaiYing’s condition who was said to have suffered a serious injury so that he had to undergo treatment there, he wanted to meet him and ask how he was, but, he might have time for that later.

......

A two-story round bungalow located at the back of the Medicine valley, in front of a small stream with clear water flowing through the clan.

BaiYing couldn’t wait to enjoy his bath after traveling quite a distance from the capital, he was already in his room being served by his maids choosing proper clothes to wear for the evening, the air in the Medicine Valley was indeed very cold, even though it was already springtime the air should be getting warmer. But the Valley of Medicine was cold and humid all around the year, with the sun shining for a very short time.

The sky was quickly going to darken even though it was just past noon, and they just arrived a few moments ago.
