CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

“Em, but, what if big brother misses you so much, it is a very long night, what if big brother can’t sleep?”

Bai Ying chuckled seeing Luo Xiang’s adorable pouting face resting his head on his waist.

“Your Highness is a grown-up, why can’t you sleep alone? This highness is such a spoily.”

Luo Xiang did not let go of his embrace.

“Well, how can I not, can’t able to see my Ying Ying pretty face all night, this is really a huge pain.”

Bai Ying was amused as Luo Xiang didn’t stop hugging his waist.

“Your Majesty, stop it, it’s ticklish, Your Majesty is too much, it’s only for a night”

“Still” the Crown Prince is like a cat who leans his head and rub it at Bai Ying’s waist.

.....

“Emmm please don’t go, can’t go far from my sweet Ying Ying even for a meter away”

Bai Ying can’t stop his smile at the Crown Prince’s childish act, he really locked him in his hug, tightly.

“Your Majesty”

Elder Yi continued to drink his tea, he listened and saw a little, which would save him a lot of trouble, just pretend not to see anything, whereas a moment ago the Crown Prince was like a wall of hard and cold ice, but now why had he become like a sticky melt? Couldn’t keep himself away from his little concubine.

Better to just enjoy the tea and look the other way.

“Hmm, the air is so fresh”

.......

Moon Pavilion.

Princess Wu Lan’s very quiet residence.

The room decor is dominated by pink fabric with beautiful floral embroidery decorated with sparkling gold and silver threads. The pavilion, which is quite large in size, only has one floor that is wide enough, because Princess herself is old and finds it difficult to go up and down stairs.

The young maidservants who wore white domination clothes lined up in front of the Princess’s room, which had a great guest that night. After one row finished bringing snacks and drinks, the next row brought trays to clean up before going to bed.

Princess Wu Lan sat on the edge of her bed, unable to stop smiling and brushing her grandson Bai Ying’s long, thick brown hair which was soft and beautiful. The scales made of selected jade glide smoothly over the smooth and shiny surface of the hair.

“Oh my grandson, his hair is indeed very beautiful.”

Bai Ying who was sitting with his back to his grandmother smiled, he himself had already put on his sleeping clothes to get ready to sleep since it was late at night.

“Em grandma, will grandma visit Yue Yang palace one day? According to His Majesty, this trip will also not pass through Xian Yang city, even though Ying really misses Grandpa Po, is he really going to stay here after retirement, Grandma?” Bai Ying asked.

Princess Wu Lan gently held Bai Ying’s long hair with one hand and brushed it with her other. The princess who is in her late eighties still looks very beautiful especially when she can’t stop smiling. Indeed, the fruit doesn’t fall far from the tree, one descendant of the Wah Ye palace family is indeed blessed with a flawless face and physique.

Even so in her old age, after her husband left her at the age of forty, Princess Wu Lan never tried to find her love again, and according to Bai Ying, it would be very nice if her biological grandmother lived side by side with grandfather Po who had also lost his wife since young.

“Em, old man Po said that he would come to the palace after the handover for his duties is done, it will take many years for his affairs as the main major general of Yue Yang to end, he has asked Grandmother to prepare a room in this pavilion” replied Princess Wu Lan with a slightly red cheeky smile.

Bai Ying turned around, seeing his grandmother’s blushing face.

“Really Grandma? That’s very good news, grandpa can stay in Ying er pavilion, in Plum pavilion, there are still some vacant rooms for guests”

Princess Wu Lan chuckled, the boy was very innocent.

“Hehehe how can that be, my sweet child, the King’s pavilion can only be occupied by the King and his partner, no one else is allowed to live there, after all, there are still many new pavilions that are empty and comfortable to live in, he just needs to choose one”

Bai Ying chuckled.

“Hehehe, yes, Grandma, but Ying er really wants to stay with grandpa and grandma in the same house once in a while.” Bai Ying looked at his grandmother who never stopped the smile on her face, he shifted his seat and lowered his head on his grandmother’s lap, which made Princess Wu Lan somewhat surprised.

“Xiao Ying”

“Grandma, do, Ying really has to leave here? No matter what Ying er still wants to linger with grandma and others, in Yue Yang palace, there are also so many kinds and loving people towards Ying er, but they are not all Ying’s family, one day, Ying will be alone there”

Princess Wu Lan stroked Bai Ying’s hair, who was sitting on his lap with a distant gaze ahead.

“Hehe, this stupid kid, who said my Xiao Ying would be alone? Doesn’t Ying consider His Highness the Crown Prince to be your family? Don’t Xiao Ying like him?”

Bai Ying clenched his fists in front of his chest in thought.

“I do, Grandma, but, His Highness the Crown Prince, for some reason, Ying er always had a strange feeling towards him, Ying really likes him, have a pleasant and warm feeling, it felt like always wanting always to be with him, don’t want to walk away and always holding hands all the time. The thing is when Ying thought all of that feeling, it’s like something was pushing from inside Ying’s chest trying to get out, it hurt so bad, and it made that warm feeling become a scary thing for Ying to feel, it was very strange isn’t it Grandma? His Majesty the Crown Prince can become so sweet and gentle sometimes, ain’t like the one I remember the last time. Does Ying er have pushed myself hard to try to like him? Grandma?”

Princess Wu Lan continued to gently stroke Bai Ying’s hair, looking at her grandson’s gentle face for a long time.

“Heh, that, it might be the other way around my dear grandson, if my Xiao Ying was actually trying not to like him, but, it’s impossible for your body to reject it.”

Bai Ying turned his head, seeing the face of his grandmother who said that with a serious face. He got up from his bed and furrowed his brow.

“Um, what does that mean? Trying not to like it? Did Ying really like him before? And, how come Ying er forgot about this? His Highness the Crown Prince also always says strange things that Ying er doesn’t remember, but somehow Ying doesn’t feel it’s weird, as it is a Deja Vu, is it true that Ying er has forgotten something very important, Grandma?” Bai Ying asked while holding his head.

Princess Wu Lan smiled, she lowered Bai Ying’s hand from his head and grasped it, patting it lightly.

“Sweet child, someday you will understand, for now, grandma can only say, that His Majesty the Crown Prince is indeed very sincere to my very sweet grandson, so this old granny can calmly leave you to go with him. Because grandma believes that Xiao Ying will get all the best from him, he will take very good care of you” said Princess Wu Lan, caressing Bai Ying’s cheek.

Bai Ying smiled, slightly relieved to hear Princess Wu Lan’s words.

“Really Grandma? Then Ying would believe in Grandma, but, if one day something untoward happened, for example, Her Majesty The Queen tortured Ying er, had Ying embroider and knit until my hand was injured, or locked Ying in the cold palace, Ying would run away and come back here, is that okay grandma?” Bai Ying asked with big eyes looking at Princess.

Princess Wu Lan chuckled.

“Hehehe, of course, my sweet child, this sweet child can come back anytime you want, this is your palace, the house where my Xiao Ying family is, please come back anytime you want, my dear”

Bai Ying smiled widely until his eyes disappeared, he went forward and hugged his grandmother.

“Emh grandma, thank you, Ying er really loves grandma”

Princess Wu Lan couldn’t stop laughing.

“This child, is it only now that Xiao Ying loves your grandmother?”

Bai Ying shook his head quickly.

“Hehehe of course since long ago grandma, long ago and forever!”

Princess Wu Lan couldn’t stop laughing, even louder because of the adorable Bai Ying.

“Ooh this boy, why are you becoming a sweet talker now?”

“Hehehe it’s because Ying er loves Grandma so much, oowh how can Ying er leave this place?
