Chapter 16: So That’s the Real Reason Was?

“Who said it’s not allowed? The Eagle Pavilion is right across Peach’s pavilion and we’ve been there almost every day, so it’s been decided, Sister Bi please help me choose clothes, not too fancy just the usual and Sister Yan please help me set up the bathtub ”

“Your Majesty wants to take a bath too? But Your Majesty is still unwell, ” said Yan.

BaiYing smiled.

“If I don’t take a bath, the smell might not be good and no one wants to be near me, please just prepare it for me”

Yan and Bi lowered their knees.

“Yes Your Majesty”

...

.....

Smooth skin, a sleek and flawless delicate skin as porcelain and it’s gently covered by silk on it, even from any side BaiYing have very beautiful skin and are soft as girls, even more than many of them. Yan and Bi never been happier to serve him wearing his gorgeous red silk and sateen with high-quality special made for palace residents, the soft surface of the fabric which is so comfortable against the skin.

His long, pretty black hair flowing down to the back of his waist, Yan was delighted to comb his lustrously beautiful hair and tie it up, adding some beautiful hairpins on top, not too fancy but pretty enough just to show his position as a respectable Palace Concubine. Okay, BaiYing will try to enjoy his position for a while, whatever it was that the perverted Crown Prince saved his life several times, he shouldn’t be too harsh on him.

Yan and Bi looked at each other in awe of how beautiful BaiYing’s face was even without too much makeup, and now even more so, it glowed with a hint of red and gold eyeshadow on his large eyelids, rosy cheeks, naked pink lips, anyone who saw him must have been blown away by his appearance, he was perfect. The maids felt very proud to see their beautiful Concubine Hua who in their eyes was the most beautiful girl among all the concubines of the Crown Prince.

“Hehehe Your Majesty is so beautiful” Yan and Bei continued to smile seeing Concubine Hua’s charm.

BaiYing looked at his own face in the mirror, he secretly sighed, it was because of his beautiful face that his parents thought of this crazy idea, and now he had to pay the consequences as the luck he had, but even though he was annoyed he smiled at his maid.

“Hey you guys always sweet-talking, it’s because of you two”

Yan and Bi just laughed.

“Hehe is very nice to have such a beautiful face like Your Majesty,” said Yan,

“Yes, many men will fall in love just by seeing Your Majesty’s beautiful face” Bi continued.

BaiYing just smiled, they were clueless, it was because of his pretty face that he had gotten all the trouble all this time, which part is the fun? He only sighed in his heart.

...

At Eagle Pavilion.

That day LuoXiang had a discussion with Beiyau in his study after the administrative duties as Crown Prince was finished, while CiaoTi was still busy tidying up the reports with several other palace administration officials, they were so busy with many piles of files to check and finalize, as the Crown Prince it is not easy as someone who will only sit in the highest place in the country doing nothing, even with unlimited power everywhere he has an obligation to give his best to govern the country and the people so that they can always have a stable and peaceful life.

LuoXiang was very fortunate to be born in a peaceful era that he didn’t need to experience life and death in a war zone like his ancestors, but to keep the peace was not as easy as it seemed, not just pressure from the outside palace, even from within the palace is very clear, the position of the Crown Prince he got from his efforts makes some parties may not like him too much, because a Prince comes from an ordinary mother he doesn’t get much support from the party and since he was young he has experienced several assassination attempts. that nearly took his life even now, LuoXiang couldn’t help being a little careless about giving his enemy a chance, he couldn’t be so reckless, even now when he had someone to protect with his life, one of which is BaiYing.

“Hemh, so they kept quiet?” LuoXiang asked BeiYau which sitting beside him.

BeiYau nodded.

“Yes, Your Highness, we made every effort to dig up information and even threatened to cut off their fingers or hands, but those people were so stubborn, they didn’t speak a single word, even when we burned and stabbed them with a hot iron.”

LuoXiang frowned, thinking hard.

“These people really know what they’re doing, even at the valley behind the palace they can enter without being noticed. Who are all of these people?

Outside the pavilion.

BaiYing managed to enter the pavilion courtyard after passing the guard Yan and Bi were now talking to, although no one could enter the Eagle pavilion without the Crown Prince’s approval, given that it was Hua’s concubine who was known as one of the Crown Prince’s favorite, the guards had no choice but to be lenient with him, although BaiYing still needed the help of the two young and sweet servants to coax them as he entered the pavilion.

BaiYing slowly sneaking closer to the slightly open window of the room where the Crown Prince spends his busy days almost every day, he would surprise LuoXiang while carrying a snack in his hand that was ready to be enjoyed with him, treating it as a gift for saving him.

BaiYing glanced into the room, he almost got caught, the window was right behind LuoXiang’s seat so he could clearly hear what they were saying now, BaiYing lowered his body to hide under the window, apparently, he was indeed busy because his conversation with BeiYau sounded serious.

“This kind of situation is very dangerous we need to open our eyes wide to any dangers that may come, increase the guard around the palace especially in the Plum pavilion, I don’t want those people to have the umpteenth chance of injuring concubine Hua, with poison which is still left in his body he still has to suffer and can’t do many other activities than in the room, what a poor kid ”

BaiYing smiled, he didn’t expect the Crown Prince to really care about him, he was too harsh on him, and at this time actually, he has also done something bad by overhearing what they were talking about, he better come out and enter through the door, but, BeiYau’s voice stopping him, he was also a little bit curious about what they going to talk about next.

“Will, His Majesty Concubine Hua be okay?”

LuoXiang took a deep breath, he glanced at BeiYau sharply.

“What do you think? His condition is still very weak and I have to take him to the valley and put him in a dangerous situation, if he finds out that I used him as bait you think what can he think of? He might really hate me”

BaiYing closed his mouth, didn’t he hear them wrong?

“The murderers might have targeted him and they followed His Majesty down the valley, just, we don’t know what the true motive was? The attackers in prison seemed to have been sworn to silence.

LuoXiang sighed deeply.

“Concubine Hua has a very important role, whether the assassin really targeted him or not but it happens around him, and what is certain now is how they can enter the palace so easily? it is possible that there is an insider, while the culprit is hiding in the dark waiting for the right time until then we can only use Concubine Hua as bait ”

BaiYing closed his mouth in restraint, his eyes wide open.

Best

He got up from his squat and staggered away, he would go away as if he didn’t hear anything now, but when he got up the box he hugged fell to the grounds with its contents scattering out.

Prangg!

LuoXiang and BeiYau turned their heads when they heard a loud sound outside the window, they approached quickly and did not find anyone there.

LuoXiang widened his eyes, a glimpse before the person disappeared from behind the wall he could still see the reddish clothes that were instantly out of sight.

BeiYau, who had run out of the window, saw the box with snacks scattered under the window.

“Your Majesty, this is..”

LuoXiang recognized the box, as well as BaiYing’s favorite snack, this is bad, is it that the boy heard everything he and BeiYau said earlier?

“Oh no YingYing”

Without thinking too long, LuoXiang runs to the pavilion exit,

“YingYing!” He exclaimed.
