CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

703 It Was Him All This Time

“Your Highness, there is a path ahead that leads to the Pai Hua valley which is a forbidden territory. Servant and elder Yi have been trying to find the cave but we haven’t found anything yet” said Shin Ya.

The Crown Prince’s group, Bai Ying, Chen Ming, Bei Yau, Xiao Hong, Shin Ya, and Elder Yi finally left the palace to look for the Fox cave which was rumored to be in the depths of the Pai Hua forest. No one knows where the cave is since it is just a rumor or folk tale among some elders.

Bai Ying sat on the horse with a sullen face, so upset because he did not have a chance to say goodbye to Yen Hui and the others. He kept looking back where the last path of the palace was visible, and they had come a very long way.

Bai Ying looked at his wrist which was still wrapped in bandages. Elder Sheng Lu took quite a lot of blood from him yesterday and after that gave him a blood-boosting potion which made him return to a fit state afterward, but, was just a little bit of blood enough?

Sheng Lu lowered his body in deep respect after Bai Ying gave him two small bowls of blood. The young man felt guilty for doing so.

“Master Sheng, what are you doing?”

Sheng Lu couldn’t help but cry, the young man who mastered many medical sciences and known as divine swords and other sharp weapons forging techniques couldn’t hold back his tears, after obtaining Bai Ying’s blood which he believed to be the ultimate elixir for refining the Divine Saber he had forged over the years. The man wiped his tears which would not stop.

“Ems, Servant, never expect this could happen, all of this, like a dream, thank you Young master Hua for making my dream come true”

Bai Ying smiled. Little did the young man in front of him know that it was he, the one who had made all of this happen to him? If the divine cleaver is not created, then he will not be able to cut the dragon pearl into four, and if the dragon pearl is not split, then he will die the night his house is on the attack. And if he died, then there wouldn’t be a day when he could give his blood, it all, just to save himself. Bai Ying didn’t expect that everything that happened during his past life was the result of what he did in the future, that is, in the past. This was very confusing, even he himself did not understand what was really going on.

.....

He and the Crown Prince, as well as the others were indeed fated to travel to that time, leaving behind traces that after a hundred years disappeared by themselves. They didn’t even know that in ancient times they had lived and helped Wah Ye defeat Empress Yu Yan, there was no historical record of when that happened.

Yen Hui looked at the three coins that were now in his palm. According to the young man in front of him, it was a coin that he could use to build this country, later he had to give the coin to his descendants, his descendants, and so on. Yen Hui widened his eyes at the beautifully engraved gold coin that was no bigger than the usual coin size. It wasn’t anything out of the ordinary, but the coin definitely had a vibration that he could feel the moment he touched it. Hearing the stories of the three young men who gave it to him, he must be able to use it as well as possible to build his country and protect his family from destruction and disaster.

Bai Ying looked at his grandfather, a young man not far from his age. The young man saw him with a big smile on his sweet lips. He indeed got that face from his grandfather, King Yen Hui who was very handsome and sweet at the same time. Even his wide and beautiful smile seemed to make the sun smile with him. Now he understands why the Crown Prince liked his smile so much, he himself really liked his grandfather’s smile.

“Er, Your Highness, remember, never let go of the hands that will hold you so tightly, no matter what. When all the bad things happen, remember that there are people out there who will protect you no matter what.” Bai Ying said.

Yen Hui smiled. He turned to Luo Wang and Luo Xiang who were standing together outside Yen Hui’s study where they gave the two of them some time to talk alone.

Ye Hui nodded.

“He, of course, Brother Ying, you too, never let go of that hand, after all, together we can defeat any danger, any sorrow, no matter how difficult it is.”

Bai Ying lowered his head. In the end, he couldn’t stop his tears from flowing. Yen Hui smiled, he raised his hand caressing Bai Ying’s cheek wiping away the tears on his cheek.

“Hey stupid kid, why are you crying? You will go home, why are you looking so sad like that? We will meet again soon, just trust me, okay?” Yen Hui said in a soft voice.

Bai Ying nodded. He held Yen Hui’s hand that was on his cheek. Raising his head saw Yen Hui’s bright and radiant face.

“Hey, that’s right, we will meet again someday, ems, Your Highness, don’t forget to always take care of yourself, Ying er will come to see you again one day. Em, this memory coin, if Your Highness misses Ying er, Your Highness can say anything inside for Ying er, in the future, I will be able to hear it”

Yen Hui smiled again, he nodded while caressing Bai Ying’s crown gently, like a big brother who loves his little brother very much.

“Of course little brother, big brother will say anything for you to hear, well, when we meet again, little brother can listen to it. This is very fun, I can say anything and not forget it because everything will be recorded in this coin.”

Bai Ying nodded. Even though he couldn’t stop the tears from falling, he smiled.

“He, of course, Your Majesty, I will be able to listen to it later too, hehe”

Bai Ying touched the memory coin that had back to his neck as soon as he and the others exited the palace as if it had never been off from him. This was because, in the past, King Yen Hui passed those coins to his kids. So it would come back to him anyway, even as soon as he gave it to him.

“Your Highness, we haven’t found the fourth pillar yet, how can we just leave like this?” asked Bai Ying following Luo Xiang who had prepared the best horses given by Yen Hui for their journey. The horses were already lined up on the palace grounds where the party would start when the sky cleared. And that’s a few moments from now.

Luo Xiang turned his head. Making sure Bai Ying’s saddle was securely fastened.

“We’re running out of time Ying, according to Bai Hu we should have headed to the mystical Fox cave before the fifth crescent, and it’s already the first day. We only have a few days to find the cave, otherwise, we will have to wait for another month”

Bai Ying puffed out his mouth. How could he go while his business there was not finished yet? although as the Crown Prince said, their business there would never end.

Bai Ying was about to continue when Fu Yi approached with the Crown Prince’s horse in his hand.

“Young master, Prince Luo said, Young Master can carry this horse, its stamina is strong enough, and can return to the main road and exit Pai Hua forest by itself. He could lead the other horses so the soldiers would be able to find them and bring them back to the palace. Em,” the young man looked at Luo Xiang and Bai Ying alternately.

It was very strange because the group said they would leave their horses in the middle of the forest and they crossed on foot, why didn’t they take the horses to their destination?

Bai Ying who still wore a sullen face finally approached Commander Fu Yi, and stretched out his hand to receive the reins from the young commander’s hand.

“Thank you, Mr. Fu, let me just take it”

Fu Yi looked at Luo Xiang for a moment and turned to Bai Ying who had an annoyed face. He stretched out his hand to hand the horse’s reins to Bai Ying. Unintentionally the two hands touched, and Bai Ying immediately withdrew his hand when he felt a stinging sensation when touching the young man’s hand.

“Ah”

His eyes widened wide, not only him but also Fu Yi who retracted his hand quickly as soon as they touched.

“Uh, Pardon me, Young Master, do you have something in your hand?”

Bai Ying looked at the young man for a moment, then looked at his palm. That sensation, was just like when he touched Wang Ye Hua, Song Ma Yi, and Shin Mu Lei. What’s this? Did this mean, the young man in front of him, was the Feng Xi they had been looking for?
