CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

707 The Invisible Wall

“Ekh, damn it, are we going to die ridiculously here, how can this suddenly happen? We must immediately seek shelter.”

Bai Ying looked around. Again the little tiger in his hand jumped down from his arms towards the ruins.

“Xiao Bai!” he was about to chase after him but Luo Xiang held him tightly so he wouldn’t move from his spot.

“Your Highness, Xiao Bai”

The rocks keep falling, and everyone couldn’t get out of their way and pressed closer to the wall. At the most critical time, Bai Ying saw something shining white appear not far from their place.

“Your Highness, look, what is that?”

The light grew brighter, causing everyone’s vision to become so dazzling that they had to lower their heads to block the light with their hands.

“Ah, what is this light?”

The light that was getting brighter made everyone close their eyes resignedly to what happened next. Until the rocks from the top of the hill keep falling and burying everyone under.

.....

Luo Xiang hugged Bai Ying tightly to protect his head from all the stones falling at them.

“Ying Ying”

The sound of water drops on rocks. The longer the clearer. Cold, as if the whole floor was covered in water. Bai Ying opened his eyes, he fell face down on the wet ground. Pulling his hand trying to turn his heavy body. As if someone was on top of it.

“Eh, Your Highness?”

Luo Xiang is on his back, hugging him so tight to cover his body from the falling rocks.

Bai Ying was just about to check on the unconscious Crown Prince when something bright appeared in front of him.

“Ah” it was that light again, the white light that blinded everyone’s eyes. But this time, the light was not as sharp as before, it was softer and warmer.

“Uh, you, who are you?” he asked.

A white creature, small in size, slightly larger than a white rabbit. It has thick white fur with a high fluffy tail. A pair of fiery red eyes with a small nose wagged as if trying to sniff out all the smells there. The creature stands on the highest rock in the cave. Looking at Bai Ying seriously.

Bai Ying struggled to get up to sit up.

“Your Highness” tried to wake up Luo Xiang. Also not far from him were his older brothers Chen Ming and Xiao Hong, as well as Bei Yau, Shin Ya, and Elder Yi. What happened? This is just an ordinary ruin, why is Xiao Hong also unconscious there, did this just a dream?

Bai Ying turned to the beautiful white creature that had still in its position where it had been looking at him since earlier. As if it had been waiting for him. Bai Ying slowly got up from his seat, his body hurting everywhere. His leg limped slightly because of getting hit by the rock that fell earlier. But he tried to get closer to the boulder where a beautiful little creature was waiting for him, he was a mystical white fox who he said had never appeared in anyone’s eyes before. This means it is possible that he really had a dream at that time.

“Hey little fella, what, can you show me where the exit is?”

The little fox wagged its fluffy tail and was three times it’s size tall. As if pulling its lips into a smile at Bai Ying, he turned its body towards the wall and jumped down. In an instant, Bai Ying saw that the creature had jumped on the green grass in the middle of a vast meadow.

Bai Ying widened his eyes, and looked under his feet, and around. He was no longer in the cave, why was he there suddenly? The little fox raised one front paw and turned its head towards Bai Ying as if waiting for him to follow.

“Eh” Bai Ying stuttered, he looked behind him, he was no longer in the cave and the Crown Prince was no longer there.

“Where are His Majesty and the others?”

Bai Ying slowly stood where he was in doubt. What happened, where is everyone? This might just be a dream, whatever it was, it seemed the only clue he had now was that the white fox was already running away from him, hoping he would catch up.

“Hey, wait!” he exclaimed.

The wind was blowing hard. The tall grass that almost covered Bai Ying’s line of sight swayed in the wind and made a loud sound. The sky was not too bright, but not too dark either, not a single bird could be seen flying across it.

Bai Ying ran after the little fox to the middle of a meadow that he was quite familiar with. Until the fox headed to a big tree and disappeared.

“Eh,” Bai Ying clearly saw the white fox head towards the tree and then disappear. Until someone else appeared from the big tree.

Bai Ying’s eyes widened, he, a figure dressed in white and gently waved by the passing wind. Holding a plain white fan in one hand, raising one hand with the other playing with his long straight black hair down to the back of her waist. Her silky hair with long strands was blown by the wind far away. His red lips were split with white teeth lined up neatly which appeared shy when he smiled so sweetly. A man with a pure white face without many ornaments in his hair which was only tied up and decorated with a sparkling white ribbon.

The young man closed his fan, and clasped his two fists in front of Bai Ying, to pay Bai Ying respects.

“Greetings, Your Majesty the King of Realms, servant is Bai Lang, it is truly an honor to meet Your Highness here.”

Bai Ying swallowed his saliva whole. Looking at the young man whose age might not be much different from his elder brother, Chen Ming. His delicate face and movements were refined and graceful, his aura was just like the white fox from earlier.

“Bai Lang, where is this? And, where are the Crown Prince and the others? What happened? Is this just a dream? You were in my dream?” Bai Ying asked innocently.

Bai Lang smiled, and he shook his head.

Bai Ying was about to ask again when Bai Lang opened his fan and waved it, suddenly the white light flashed again until Bai Ying raised his hand to cover his eyes.

“What’s this?”

Soon the white light finally disappeared, Bai Ying slowly opened his eyes and found himself in another place. He was quite familiar with that place, it was Yue Yang Palace’s courtyard, the Plum Pavilion where he lived.

Bai Ying stood in the middle of the courtyard turning around and looking around, this was indeed the same garden, but, somehow he felt something was different, was it because the plum trees growing around it, were still so short? Like it’s just planted.

Bai Ying stopped his steps as he faced the terrace where there was a loud laugh.

“Hehehe this is very good, your son must really like it” that voice, Bai Ying recognized it. Soon another sound was heard.

“Of course brother, but my little daughter is only five years old, and Momo is expecting our second child, will you also give this gift to our second child?” That voice was Yen Hui.

Without second thought Bai Ying approached. He stopped walking when he arrived at the terrace where he saw Prince Yen Hui, who was sitting leaning against Luo Wang. The same seat where he and the Crown Prince often spent time there.

Luo Wang hugged Yen Hui tightly, stroked his hair and kissed his forehead. The two looked so happy sitting together enjoying the view of the blue sky stretching out in front of them.

Luo Wang held his breath for a moment, then let it out heavily.

“Heh”

Yen Hui realized that. He looked back at Luo Wang’s tired and worried face. Yen Hui straightened up and raised his hand to caress Luo Wang’s cheek. Looking at him with his big, round eyes.

“Brother, what’s bothering you?” asked Yen Hui in a gentle voice. Luo Wang smiled, he held Yen Hui’s hand that was on his cheek and looked at him for a long time. Raised his other hand stroking Yen Hui’s hair without stopping to look at his very gentle face.

“Heh, Hui er, did we really can’t be together? We can live in this villa together, and one day you will become the King of Yue Yang to sit beside the Emperor, I am the Emperor, anyone will listen to my orders, it’s no big deal”

Yen Hui looked at a pair of Luo Wang’s eyes that looked at him for a long time, without blinking, until finally, Yen Hui smiled.

“Brother, you know that’s impossible, now Wah Ye only has me, all the Princes and Princesses are gone, and father only relies on Hui er to take the position of King to rule. Even though Momo and I don’t have a husband and wife relationship, she is still the mother of my children, I have an obligation to look after and protect her.” novelenglish.net . Fɪre
