CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

The night air made the cold air feel even colder, especially for BaiYing who had not yet gotten his body heat, Crown Prince took off his and BaiYing’s top, half lying on the bed hugging that young man’s innocent body tightly.

He stroked BaiYing’s half-asleep front hair and kissed his forehead.

“Heh YingYing, why did you have to do it? This reckless thing, one day could take your life off.”

BaiYing wrapped his arms around LuoXiang’s waist as if the big man was his heating pad, his body was so warm, his sturdy chest and athletic stomach with bulging muscles, the surface of his skin was hot, currently, the Crown Prince’s body was indeed the warmest of any bonfire.

“Your Majesty, you are so warm”

LuoXiang stroked BaiYing’s front hair showing his forehead, brought his chin closer, and kissed it several times.

“Chup”

“Close your eyes, just sleep, tomorrow you will be fine”

.....

“Emh, don’t go, please stay here”

The Crown Prince smiled, he couldn’t stop stroking BaiYing’s hair and always kissing him.

“Heh, of course, I’ll always be here”

....

Byusssh.

The sound of water with hot smoke still billowing filled the bathtub, where the maids had also added beautiful fresh flowers, fragrant aromatherapy oils, to the leaves of herbal medicine stew.

BaiYing sat in the bath while Yan helped him scrub his back that morning.

“How is it Your Majesty, is it warmer?” asked the young servant.

BaiYing nodded, he couldn’t imagine how pleasant it would be to take a warm bath that morning because he had been shivering from the cold since that night. But, he slept quite well because last night he hugged the Crown Prince so tightly, the two of them shared body heat together, he still couldn’t get the smile off his lips thinking how last night was probably the happiest night for him.

“Lan’er sister will return to the palace by today, this is so fun, I really miss her,” said BaiYing.

Yan rubbed BaiYing’s back up to the front of his chest, his pure white skin glistening in the sunlight, without them noticing the pair of eyes behind the window saw him with big eyes.

BaiYing’s face at that time looked very beautiful, his half-wet hair fell naturally in front of his forehead, an unadorned innocent sweet face, even handsome, a wide smile pink lips that showed his small and seductive dimples, smooth flawless skin, he tossed his hair a little so that he could rinse his chest with warm water that pooled to the bottom of his chest, his face did not stop smiling because his two maids were always teasing him endlessly.

“Oh” aYa covered her mouth realizing what she saw at that moment, she stepped away from the window quickly, her suspicions were very precise, she almost stumbled over when her maid approached her.

“Princess”

But aYa’s hand suddenly raised to stop her servant’s words, no one should know that she is an honorable princess sneaking into the back of Plum Pavilion unnoticed and peeking at Concubine Hua while taking a bath.

Princess aYa moved swiftly toward the courtyard, without a maid or guard noticing them rushing out.

...

CiaoTi lowered his head taking the report that LuoXiang had marked.

“The first and second teams have already left for LiuYang and will continue to update every day for further developments,” said the advisor who was probably in his forties who had been an advisor to the Crown Prince since several years ago, his work cannot be underestimated. He has done everything he could order by the Crown Prince, even more, his perspective of every issue allowed the Crown Prince to make very good decisions, he was indeed reliable.

“Is it true that senior advisor YueWang is going to LiuYang? What is that old man doing there?” he asked.

“Report Your Majesty, according to the news, Senior advisor headed to LiuYang to oversee the dam project, he thinks this is also a very good opportunity to relearn what the city needs at the moment.”

Hearing that LuoXiang who was reading the report in his hand smirked, he leaned his back to his chair.

“That old man, what can he do there? He is an old man but still acts like a young man, why isn’t he self-reflected? Said to be retired, so why still go back to the palace? Father was too soft with him, considering the good relationship, heh, since when political affairs juxtaposed with good relations?.”

The Crown Prince kept grumbling, leaving CiaoTi speechless.

As he was seriously reading the report, BeiYau appeared from the front.

“Your Majesty, I just meet Princess KaYa while coming here, and she asked permission to have an important talk with Your Majesty.”

Hearing that, the Crown Prince lowered his hand holding the report book, he glanced at BeiYau, then looked at the contents of the report in his hand again.

“What business does this spoiled princess want to see me, I haven’t even taught her a lesson about what she did to YingYing, why doesn’t she just go back to her country, what a hassle”

BeiYau was still standing in front of the Crown Prince, he was a bit hesitant to say but his attitude made the Crown Prince lower his book onto the table, he knew his personal bodyguard very well.

“Tell me what’s wrong Bei, can’t you see I’m so busy here? I have to finish and go home on time to eat with YingYing, you know exactly about my schedule right?”

BeiYau raised his hand again in salute.

“According to Princess KaYa, this is related to concubine Hua”

BeiYau’s words made LuoXiang look at him seriously. What did that person want to say about YingYing? How presumptuous, did she know who she was dealing with? Being the princess of a small country can be arbitrary here, this is all because Mother thinks too highly of her, only because she wants Kili-made clothes and spices to make her favorite dishes.

The Crown Prince took a deep breath.

“Heh, what else”

But, a few moments later, in the front garden of the Eagle pavilion.

What Princess KaYa said made the Crown Prince stutter.

“What? You, willing to be my concubine?” he clarified.

Princess aYa nodded, the young lady did not have many expressions even after conveying her wish her face remained flat.

The Crown Prince glanced at the two maidservants, then turned to BeiYau behind him, didn’t he hear wrong?

“Em, but, you said you weren’t interested and said you already have a crush, I don’t want to force your will, princess, and, frankly, right now I don’t really need a new concubine, one concubine Hua is enough for me”

Princess Aya glanced at the two servants, to ask them to leave it to speak privately with the Crown Prince, both lowered themselves saluted, and moved back, seeing it LuoXiang also eyeing BeiYau and two waiters who had served them.

Once in the chair in front of the cobblestone table in front of the garden, there were only the Crown Prince and Princess AYa. The Crown Prince just lifted his teacup and took a small sip.

“I want concubine Hua”

The princess’s words made LuoXiang widen his eyes and almost spit out the tea that had already entered his mouth.

He averted his gaze and wiped the edges of his lips. He probably just misheard.

“Euh, sorry, I thought I heard it wrong, if you wanted my concubine, what would that mean? Concubine Hua is mine. How can you want her, this is ridiculous.”

But the princess’s expression didn’t change, she looked at the Crown Prince with serious eyes, which made LuoXiang think that he didn’t hear wrong, but, is that possible?

“You, not kidding? That means, you may already like my concubine, who is, um, a little girl like you.”

AYa raised her teacup, slowly drank a bit, then put it back on her saucer before answering the Crown Prince.

“Your Majesty certainly knows more about who Concubine Hua really is, he is a very sweet boy, and, frankly, I wanted him, since the first day saw him in the city at that time, I intended to bring him back to Kili” the Princess’s words made The Crown Prince refrained from screaming, the princess in front of him was too innocent and because of it seem stupid, was she not afraid of losing her head, had dared to want what was his? A Crown Prince.

“Do you think YingYing is an inanimate object? Bringing his back to Kili, he is my concubine, you have crossed the line”

Princess AYa raised her head to look into the Crown Prince’s deep eyes.

“Then we will compete fairly”

The Crown Prince was at a loss for words, the girl in front of him had gone mad, he shouldn’t have listened to her slurred words, trying to calm down, LuoXiang lifted his teacup again.

“You don’t realize your position Princess KaYa, the Queen may flatter you a lot, considering the political interests between our countries, but, I’m not interested at all, Kili is a very small country, compared to YueYang it’s almost nothing, so I don’t really need you, and concubine Hua, is mine, whatever you do, as long as you don’t touch him I won’t mind you always looking for trouble with him”

Princess AYa swallowed her saliva, does the Crown Prince know what he’s been doing all this time?

“That”

LuoXiang stood up from his seat, folded his sleeves, and hooked his hands behind his waist standing with his chin high.

“Princess AYa, you don’t forget what is your position here, better as soon as you return to Kili”

Princess AYa stood up from her seat, swallowing her saliva whole.

“I, will tell the Queen about the true identity of concubine Hua”

The Crown Prince smirked, the princess threatened him, did he not hear wrong?

“Heh, Princess KaYa don’t cross the line”

The stubborn princess looked at LuoXiang with her sharp eyes.
