CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

87 They All Hate Him

Not long after.

Yan and Bi had already helped FuLan comb and tie her hair, her face was brighter after BaiYing also brought some powder and lip dye for her.

Whether she was guilty or not, or even that young woman wanted to kill him, BaiYing still couldn’t forget that she was the first person who welcomes him into the palace, concubine Fu was the first one who smiles at him even though it might be fake, it was more than enough, and when he lost his entire family in the massacre, concubine FuLan didn’t say anything that made him sad, she seemed to be trying to help him to forget it and just focus on himself with all the busyness as a palace concubine with a lot of activities, it made him feel much better.

“See sis, this beautiful face of sister Lan’er is back,”

Sais BaiYing thrusting a small mirror into FuLan’s hand, the girl smiled, seeing her reflection in the mirror she hadn’t seen in a long time, let alone a mirror, nothing was in the room, not even a comb, how could she take care of herself.

“Wow, this is very good Yen’er, smells good too, is this the powder that His Majesty bought the other day at ChangSan?”

Bai Ying nodded.

“Yeah, it’s brand new, I haven’t used it at all, you can have it, the color matches your skin.”

Lan’er opened her eyes wide.

.....

“Really? This is for me? But what if His Highness the Crown Prince finds out you gave it to me, won’t he be angry?”

BaiYing pulled his lips, that person, how can he pay attention to this kind of thing, let that person be angry. BaiYing shook his head.

“He won’t, Sis, Your Majesty must have forgotten this powder, this is for you, also this mirror and comb, erm tomorrow Yen’er will bring a facial skin mask for you,”

BaiYing’s words made FuLan’s movements stop, she looked at BaiYing with her teary eyes, took BaiYing’s two hands, and gripped them tightly.

“Sister, don’t leave me here, please take me out of here, it’s so scary, looks like there is a ghost here.”

BaiYing looked at FuLan for a while, he smiled and slowly let go of the concubine’s tight grip and patted her lightly.

“Sis, you will have to stay here for a while, em, according to Your Majesty, you still have to go to trial to prove your guilt or innocence.”

FuLan widened her eyes.

“No, not me, sister you have to believe me, I did intend to tie the strings and ask my servant to do it, but lastly I cut it myself because I was afraid that I would also get hurt because of it, look at my hand, look at this scar when I cut off the strings, my servant pulled the string too tight so when I cut it, it bounced and hit my hand, it indeed my servant who tied it, but why should I hurt my hand if not because I want to cut it, sister you have to trust me”

FuLan held BaiYing’s arm tightly, BaiYing looked at the scar on FuLan’s palm that indeed resembled a lash from a sharp thin string that bounced back when it’s pulled, wasn’t a wound when she pulled it, the maid must have had the same wound, but this type of wound wasn’t special, even an ordinary knife scratch looked similar, he couldn’t find solid evidence even if he checked everyone.

BaiYing took a closer look at FuLan’s palm.

“I’m such an idiot, why did I do that? Why should I listen to her words? She kept persuading me to do it because she thought this would only hurt and won’t kill you, ems, I was so stupid to do such a ridiculous thing without thinking, even though I regret it but I don’t know who set me up, ems, it must be them, they must have done it, they want to make me a scapegoat and get rid of me, little sister Yen you have to help me, this must be sister Fan’er or even Mu’er’s plan”

BaiYing stopped his movement, raised his head to look at FuLan who sounded serious with his words.

“You mean, Sis Fan’er and Sis Mu’er too?”

Fu Lan nodded quickly.

“That’s right, they, they know about my plan, even the idea of ??buying this string in the city also came from them, you can ask Bao’er about this, he was assigned to buy the strings the other day, you can look for him”

Bao’er, one of the young male servants in the pavilion who was often assigned to buy the pavilion’s necessities and especially the needs of the Concubines.

BaiYing raised his body, he still couldn’t accept the fact that the three concubines, even Mu’er who he thought was very good to him, intended to harm him, how could they think like that of him?

Was he really that annoying and made them all hate him?

If you’re alone and three people are against you, it must be because you have a problem, that’s what should happen, so, all this time, he was the one who made the three Crown Prince’s concubines hate him so much.

Seeing BaiYing who was silent and sitting away on the chair near the round table made FuLan come closer, she wiped away her tears, slowly sitting in front of BaiYing who was looking the other way with a look full of thoughts.

“Yen’er, you, hate sister? Sister admits that we don’t really like you that much, because, ever since you arrived at the palace, His Highness the Crown Prince hasn’t even thought to touch our room, our bed has become very cold, the round table has never served the food to be enjoyed with him, even no more walking hand in hand under the moon because all His Majesty wants in all of it is you, although actually, even before you arrived, His Majesty the Crown Prince never looked at us like that, it was all just our imagination”

Baiying swallowed round, his chest tightness, imagine, if possible, one of three concubines also poisoned his food when the first days he arrived at the palace, imagine it made his stomach hurt. How much do they hate him? He thought all this time they treated him as a sister, even though they didn’t know that he was a boy and not a girl, if they knew wouldn’t they throw him straight into the abyss?

“Sister” FuLan tried to persuade BaiYing.
