CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

568 Pre- Planned

Ye Lu, Yi Fang and several youths from other clans entered the finals. If it was Ye Lu, then the Cold Water clan would emerge as the martial world champion at that time. Although it must be admitted, Yi Fang’s strength in battle is much stronger than Ye Lu’s, who can fight Ye Lu’s black chain, even if he wants to, the black chain can beat Ye Wang’s, the problem is, experience Ye Lu’s fighter is still far from his brother’s.

The night after all of the day’s events ended, Sang Guan Yi Lu took part in the discussion led by the Crown Prince in General Po’s living room at the official residence which was located at the front. There was Sang Guan Yi Lu and his disciple, General Po as well as Elder Yi sitting not far from the Crown Prince.

The old man stroked his chin.

“Hmm, so everything was pre-planned if the attack on the White Cloud clan was indeed carried out so that this competition could be moved to General Po’s residence, but, that is very strange, Your Majesty, how can the perpetrator be so sure that we will move the competition here?” asked Sang Guan Yi Lu.

The Crown Prince was just quietly enjoying his tea, as he usually did, he glanced at Bei Yau who was standing beside him to speak.

“They are not sure, Chief Sang Guan, everything was planned spontaneously, because of the arrival of General Po as well as His Highness the Crown Prince here. At first, Princess Chai Ni might have immediately attacked the General’s residence when everyone was here, just like what the General’s men said when there was an attempt at robbery in the house when everyone was busy in the White Cloud clan. But since Princess Chai Ni cant gets through the layers of the guard at the house to get in, and also she didn’t know where the item actually was, she planned all of this halfway through,” said Bei Yau.

Sang Guan Yi Lu nodded, that’s probably true, there’s no way the Princess didn’t try to take it when she had the chance, and when the owner of the house wasn’t around she should at least be able to take it as she pleased.

“Hem, so the Princess is cooperating with the Dark Water Clan to wreak havoc, and her main goal is to retrieve the weapon. Old man Po, if it’s true that it was that weapon that destroyed a part of the Cloud forest in one hit and also injured you, I can’t imagine what would happen when he used that weapon in a densely populated area, many casualties would be falls from it,” said Sang Guan Yi Lu.

General Po who was sitting not far from him nodded. Although the burns on his back were still quite severe, he had to return to his position. At a critical time like this, everyone worked hard.

.....

“That’s right, old man, Prince Lo Yi is already on his way back to Dai Yang to warn the Emperor of what is to come, that girl could just use it again. Although I’m not sure he can use it a second time, that small body, couldn’t possibly withstand this huge energy load, I’m sure she’s also seriously injured right now.”

Elder Yi nodded.

“Hem that’s true, although I’ve never seen the power of Fire Lightning before, from the stories circulating in the past, that weapon is indeed known to have a very strong energy explosive power. It took someone with immense internal strength like General Song who could withstand it. Because the destructive power is terrible enough for all parties to make the weapon exiled from the martial world. I’m sure Princess Chai Ni was also seriously injured as General Po did. It’s likely that the girl will go into hiding for a while to treat herself.”

Luo Xiang nodded.

“But we still have to be careful, this princess is very clever, she is small but has very complex thoughts, somehow the little girl has such a strong will that she feels she can destroy such a large country with her small hands. She must have something that makes her dare to do all the things that we thought would be impossible for her to do it. That girl must have thought things through carefully.”

Sang Guan Yi Lu and the others nodded.

“Hmm, that’s true. Heh, in this year’s competition there are a lot of things that we didn’t expect before happened. This is really unexpected.”

“But, these affairs is not Yue Yang’s concerned, I think, if that Princess were to attack her own country, we can’t interfere unless Dai Yang itself asks for it,” Luo Xiang said.

Everyone nodded slowly. That’s right, a big country like Dai Yang could more than anyone able to protect their own country, and they couldn’t do anything to prevent or help them.

Luo Xiang put the teacup in its place. He waved his hand and stood up from his seat. As he stood up everyone in the room also stood bowing their heads in respect to the Crown Prince who was walking towards the exit.

“Come on Bei, let’s go back to the villa, we should start preparing to pack our clothes and head back to the palace, there’s nothing else we can do here, we’ll return to the palace after the competition ends tomorrow”

Bei Yau nodded.

“Yes, Your Majesty”

......

Meanwhile at the Peacock villa.

Bai Ying who was sitting alone in his room was busy looking at the clothes he would wear to the dinner tomorrow when the finals were over. He couldn’t wait for that day to come. The clothes he had brought from the palace as well as the ones General Po had given him when he arrived at this house were quite numerous and beautiful. Everything is so pleasing to the eye, and the material is also very soft.

He looked around, but there was no one else in the room but himself, where was Bi, she said she would only take snacks from the kitchen, what makes her take so long?

“Hmm, this one is really nice.” Bai Ying held up a beautiful light blue dress with a peacock embroidered pattern with silver thread, lightweight and a flowing bottom. Google search (f)ire

“These are from Her Majesty the Queen.”

Bai Ying sees his own reflection in the mirror in that beautiful clothes. Until Bi finally appeared at the door.

“Sister, what takes you so long? I thought you were fell asleep” Bi exclaimed.

Bi approached. But her face looks flat as if holding something, is she sick? Bai Ying thought.

“Um, sister, what happened? You look so pale?” Bai Ying asked.

Bi shook his head. She put down the tray with the ginger soup bowl she’d just brought from the kitchen.

“I’m fine, Your Majesty, let’s have some ginger sweet potato soup.”

Bai Ying pursed his lips, didn’t Bi go out to get some fruit? Why did she come back with ginger sweet potato soup? But he put his clothes on his bed and approached the table. Sit slowly in his chair.

“Em, don’t they have the fruit and cake, Sis?” he asked.

Bi painstakingly poured the ginger yam soup into a smaller bowl for Bai Ying to enjoy.

“Please forgive me, Your Majesty, when I came they were just about to cut a new one, while waiting for the fruit to be ready I brought this ginger soup, it looks delicious, and lately Your Majesty looks very tired and lacks sleep. This will make Your Majesty sleep better tonight,” said Bi.

Bai Ying grabbed the small bowl that Bi had placed in his hand. Looking at his maid’s face for a moment, his brow furrowed in confusion at Bi’s attitude which he thought was a bit odd. She didn’t even look into his eyes when she spoke, and also, she looked very tired and pale. Bai Ying even lowered his head trying to see Bi’s eyes which seemed to be avoiding him.

“Em, sister, if you are tired, just have a rest, today I will just sit in the villa waiting for His Majesty to come, the plan is this afternoon His Majesty and I will take a walk to the valley”

Bi raised his head, realizing Bai Ying who saw her very close made her stutter.

“Eh Y-Your Majesty, Servant is fine, uh, this, maybe because the air is just erratic here. Em, how about, while waiting, I accompany Your Majesty for a walk this afternoon, the air is quite good right now, how about we take a look at the back valley near the field, we have never been there before, Your Majesty.”

Bai Ying thought, he pursed his mouth, while thinking.

“That valley near the training field? But according to His Highness the Crown Prince, we can’t go there, Sis, he said that place is closest to the exit. Is there anything interesting there, huh?” Bai Ying asked curiously.

Bi nodded.

“Yes, Your Majesty, I heard from another servant that there were rabbits left wild by General Po, he said there were enough of them. That’s why the area is quite closed and rarely visited by people.”

Bai Ying looked at Bi with big eyes.

“Really? Bunnies?”
