CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE - Chapter 701 - 701 Destined

701 Destined

Bai Ying rounded his mouth.

“I see, but, Prince Yen Hui actually didn’t know that it would work did he? He just guessed it” Bai Ying asked.

Luo Xiang stroked Bai Ying’s hair and then kissed his neck from behind, he nodded.

“Yeah, he doesn’t know for sure, it’s all just theory. But he trusted Shaman Shin so much, he was willing to die for that theory.”

Bai Ying widened his eyes.

“Wow, that’s great, my grandfather is indeed a great Prince, Ying er knows why he can be so successful later”

Luo Xiang nodded again.

“That’s right, he is a very great King,” Luo Xiang said although his gaze was far ahead.

The bigger reality that Bai Ying did not know yet, was that even if Empress Yen Hui could be defeated, and her curse on Yen Hui ended, it would not be meaning that everything ended just like that. What the female Priest had caused was far worse than they had imagined. Including Yen Hui’s heart which had already been damaged by her, and, according to what they knew so far, twenty years from now, Yen Hui and Wah Ye would sink to the ground because of this.

…..

Bai Ying realized the troubled heart of the Crown Prince, he touched his hand to wake him up from his reverie.

“Your Highness, is Your Highness still thinking about what will happen to this palace in the future?” Bai Ying asked.

Luo Xiang stuttered, not expecting Bai Ying to notice his confusion.

“Eh, Ying Ying, that”

Bai Ying smiled. He raised his hand caressing the Crown Prince’s cheek, turning his body towards him.

“Everything is predestined, Your Majesty, if this palace will be buried and Grandfather, will die when he is close to forty years old, we cannot avoid all of that. Ying er, it was a nightmare to see none of this happens, however, it became everyone’s nightmare.”

Bai Ying restrained himself, and lowered his eyes in thought, vividly remembering his mother’s smile and his father’s laugh in his dreams, the face he would forever never see again.

It was the deepest sadness that he could not express in any words. Missing people who will never come back into his life, ever again.

Luo Xiang took Bai Ying’s hand and held it.

“Ying Ying, what are you thinking, did big brother make you sad?” asked Luo Xiang wiping the tears from the corner of his eyes.

Bai Ying couldn’t help himself, he ended up crying too. He raised his two hands to hug the Crown Prince tightly.

“Huks, Your Highness, why is everything so sad? Was Ying er unable to do anything to prevent it? What, grandpa and this palace have to stay submerged, and, this palace family falling apart, survive by running away? Can we not prevent all of that at all, Your Majesty?”

Luo Xiang held his breath, stroking Bai Ying’s back who was crying until he was on his knees. He hugged him so tight and let the child cry as much as he wanted.

“Heh, Ying Ying, everything is destined we can’t do anything to prevent it, heh”

…….

The sun is getting hotter. Luo Xiang and Bei Yau and the others discussed their next plans, including one way to return to their world.

“According to Bai Hu, we should head towards Pai Hua Valley, close to the white fox’s cave, and go inside looking for an invisible wall. Mister Shin, do you know what the invisible wall means?” asked Luo Xiang.

Shin Ya thought, he glanced at Elder Yi beside him. Both of them shook their heads. Shin Ya pursed his lips.

“That’s what I’m still trying to figure out, Your Highness, the fox cave never existed before in our era, and master Bai Hu didn’t even say where it is. I don’t know if we can find it or not.”

Elder Yi nodded.

“That’s right, Your Majesty, before we came here, we haven’t even explored the depths of Pai Hua Valley. If that cave exists, it’s probably located in the forbidden area on the border of Yili. In this era, Yili is still a primitive country and doesn’t have an absolute king, they still involved in a fierce civil war everywhere.”

Luo Xiang nodded.

“True, it was only when Grandpa Luo Wang became Emperor that the countries were willing to be united in diplomatic relations. Hmm” he thought, hard enough to purse his lips.

……

“Heh” Bai Ying’s breathless voice.

Bai Ying walked alone on the path through the garden looking at the beautiful scenery of the Wah Ye palace complex which was still a large piece of land with few buildings. Among them is the large building of the old Wah Ye Palace which is spacious with rooms for the King and the royal family in it. While on the outside it is an open area with several bungalows and villas for officials and guests of the palace, including he’s. Unlike the Wah Ye that he first found after being buried for eighty years. Several small buildings left only rubble and almost nothing left, covered by tall grass and even earth that buried them to the ground.

Something big must have happened to cause the palace to be buried back then, and now, he was even more sure, that it wasn’t Yue Yang who had attacked them. Judging from what happened yesterday, and how the Elders of the Female Priestess clan, including aunt Hu and a few other elders fled, the attack on the palace must have something to do with them.

Most likely, the Blackwater clan was also a branch of the clan of the disappeared female Priestess because Wah Ye and Yue Yang chased and captured anyone related to that clan.

Bai Ying stopped in his tracks and saw familiar faces standing near the field where the warriors of the Wah Ye Palace were training. Without thinking Bai Ying approached them.

“Master Song, Master Wang”

It was Song Ma Yi and Wang Ye Hua who looks surprised to see Bai Ying there.

“Young Master Hua”

Not long after, the three of them were sitting under a tree not far from the practice field and talking for quite a while. Bai Ying couldn’t stop laughing at Song Ma Yi’s joke, which unexpectedly turned out to be not much different from the grandfather Po he knew. He is very friendly and talkative.

“Hehehe, yes, young master, at that time, Mr. Wang, who was really great, immediately spread his poison, but it almost hit my face, lucky no, otherwise my ugly face would get worse, right,” said Song Ma Yi.

Bai Ying and Song Ma Yi laughed, but not Wang Ye Hua whose face was straight with the slightest smile that seemed forced.

Bai Ying stopped his laughter. Seeing Wang Ye Hua whose eyes were actually looking around him, towards the soldiers who were busy training.

“Em young master Wang, what do you thinking on?” he asked.

Wang Ye Hu looked around, holding his breath long enough to lower his head while taking a deep breath.

“Heh, servant, just thinking, finally, I can enter the palace, after, Father and Mother, are no longer exist in this world, they must be very shocked to know, this useless child of theirs can finally enter the palace”

Bai Ying pursed his lips, he felt guilty for laughing so happily with Song Ma Yi. The two looked at each other for a moment.

Bai Ying raised his hand to touch Wang Ye Hua’s hand which was in front of him. The young man turned his head, looking at Bai Ying for a long time. Those pair of beautiful eyes look at him with a shady gaze

“Um, Mr. and Mrs. Wang will definitely be very proud of you Young Master Wang, they are very good parents, and both of them are so supportive of whatever you do. Of course, now both of them are witnessing how you can finally fulfill your wish and tell everyone they know about how great their son was in saving the palace from destruction. After this, life in Wah Ye would improve even more, and, there would no longer be the oppression of the common people like there was before. Forgive me this has happened to you, young master Wang.”

Bai Ying spoke long enough, his words made Wang Ye Hua look at him without blinking, so that his eyes were a little red from the tears he had been holding back. The man lowered his head as the tears fell, wiping them quickly.

Wang Ye Hua lifted his head again, holding it above so the tears could stop, he smiled.

“Hey, that, it’s not young master’s fault, why should young master apologize? All of this is fate, father and mother are two of the best people in the world who think everyone around them is a good person. Never have bad thoughts and always laugh even though there are many problems. When the harvest fails they will blame themselves for failing. Never said that bad weather or rat pests were the cause. They are too good, really good people are not allowed to see the world’s ugliness any longer, so they will leave first, that, maybe it’s better.”
