Chapter 4: Plan To Escape
“HuaBaiYing!”
BaiYing who was ducked turned his head up, someone called out his name loudly.
“Yes!”
His habit of answering, BaiYing straightened his body to see who was calling his name, his eyes widened after knowing who it was, The Crown Prince? Did he hear it wrong? Why did that person call him BaiYing?
“Eh Y-Your Highness” How can he recognize him?
Luo Xiang rushes to come down from his workroom to approach BaiYing, when the young man was still gasping confused, LuoXiang’s pushed him towards the wall. He saw BaiYing with big and sharp eyes, held his body who was trying to escape from him but didn’t have the power to push the big and strong Crown Prince.
“How dare you!”
.....
“Y-Your Majesty!”
The crowd outside the room caused ChaiMa and the other concubines in the Peach Pavilion to rush out.
“Ooh, Your Majesty”
Can’t believe their eyes, those beautiful concubines clenched their fists holding back in exasperation, how could the concubine who had just entered the palace for two days managed to get the attention of the Crown Prince who didn’t even take a glance at them since the first day?
Luo Xiang pull BaiYing face so close to him, hold his chin with his big palm, and take a look at him deeply as if he was observing him. BaiYing restrained himself, and clenched his fists at his side trying to refrain from hitting him, if he did it he could have lost his head off.
“Eh Y-Your Majesty, what do you want?” BaiYing asked, stuttering.
Luo Xiang grinned, he deliberately brought his face so close to BaiYing’s that everyone who saw the scene held their breath, this is inappropriate.
“Huh!”
CiaoTi wanted to look away, he knew His Highness is a very straight person about what he wanted, so it’s not that weird if he always does that in any situation. While on the other side it seemed ChaiMa was enjoying it, the woman took out her notes and started adding a few words.
“Oh Her Majesty going to love this”
Luo Xiang grinned, BaiYing swallows his saliva seeing how white is the teeth behind the sticky lips of the Crown Prince, that because they are too close to each other! He could even hear his breathing.
Crown Prince teased his youngest concubine because he knew she was not what he seemed, BaiYing could not guess that the next movement of Luo Xiang, who lifted his hand and suddenly pulled BaiYing’s collar to reveal a smooth left shoulder.
“Ooowhh!”
Everyone shouted spontaneously, CiaoTi quickly looked away because it was inappropriate to see the Crown Prince’s concubine body.
ChaiMa also did not expect the Crown Prince to be so aggressive, but this is very good news to report to her queen, she wrote her notes quickly.
“This is great.”
Damn it! BaiYing screams in his heart, he can’t do anything to break free, this guy is indeed crazy! The Crown Prince intentionally publicly harassed him, he was about to raise his hand to pull his clothes but Luo Xiang held his hand, grabbed the palm with the tiny long finger, and kissed it.
The boy’s eyes widened, didn’t expect that and was increasingly unable to refuse, all eyes were on him, it turned out that the rumors about the Crown Prince being perverted were true and he was harassing him now, what should he do?
Luo Xiang kissed BaiYing’s hand and crept up his smooth back.
Seeing his Crown Prince’s inappropriate behaviour ChaiMa remembered and dispersed the servants around him.
“Come on, let’s go” she pulled the concubines who were still unhappy at the scene, especially Fan’er who had to stomp her feet when she was about to go back to the pavilion.
“ChaiMa, is it appropriate for Your Majesty to do that in public? They deliberately show off their affection,” complained Fan’er, the other two concubines nodded.
“Yeah that’s right”
ChaiMa chuckled,
“You guys don’t need to be discouraged, Your Majesty has a big heart, your turn will come up later”
“Yeah, but when? We’ve been here long before Yen’er, sister Fan’er it’s been here for five months, I’m three months, and Mu’er is two months, but all this time His Majesty has never touched us ” protested Lan’er which was continued by two other concubines.
“Yeah, that’s right.”
While at BaiYing’s side, he’s quietly pushing Luo Xiang’s body which was covering his body busy sniffing his shoulder. The man will have a hard hit in his eyes, tonight BaiYing confirmed that. But, the boy’s hand movements stopped, he felt something on his back, where there was a rather long scar on his back where Luo Xiang touched it gently now, he got that scar when he was so young, even forgot about that.
BaiYing stuttered, Luo Xiang pulled his body and looked at the young man’s face for a long time, making BaiYing’s big round eyes blink several times as if it was a slow-motion that made his curled eyelashes flutter gracefully.
“Y-Your Highness.”
Luo Xiang held BaiYing’s hand, this time it was a little tight to the point of hurting him, he whispered in BaiYing’s ear.
“Very good, you think you want to trick me for how long, BaiYingYing”
BaiYing tried to pull his hand, Luo Xiang’s devilish grin appeared on his face again, oh no he knew him! What should he do now? He still wants to live longer!
........
BaiYing is lucky, again, he thinks.
When the Crown Prince finds out about his identity suddenly his bodyguard BeiYau appears, delivering very important news to Luo Xiang enough to let him go, otherwise, it will be somehow his fate.
Outside the Palace wall.
Best
Puk!
BaiYing threw the fabric bag with his clothes on the ground outside the palace wall then he jumped down, not so many guards on that side of the wall so he could escape from the palace through that place, it’s odd, how can he reach the wall? Okay that going to be so long story, somehow he already wastes a whole or two days searching for the wall, he is just being so lucky and able to climb it without the guard killing him for trespassing.
BaiYing waved his hand patting the dirt stuck to his clothes, he was already wearing his clothes as Young Master BaiYing, blue clothes with silver motifs on the front with white and light blue bottoms made of high-quality satin and silk, fitting his thin body, tall and slender with long hair in a small braid behind his ears and a top with a bun decorated with a golden pin, he’s such a cute young man.
BaiYing picked up the bag and hurried away after making sure the situation was safe, he had to leave this horrible palace before it was too late.
BaiYing pushed his hair back and walked casually when he saw the guards standing at the front gate of the Crown Prince’s palace, the palace was so big and beautiful, but hell no, he won’t get back in there, not at all, he better escape while his head is still intact.
The street in front of the palace was quite busy, the sun just set and the night had just begun. The place was already crowded with a citizen, there was an event at the market, many lanterns of various shapes, kites, all the beautiful, and cute stuff, made from the paper, as the main commodity produced by the great capital city of YueYang, SanPo city.
“Wow, this is so cute.”
BaiYing glanced at the lanterns held by the children who were playing cheerfully in front of the road and soon ran to their parents who were on the other side, there were even traders who sold face masks with animal faces made of paper, all looks good.
“Wow, this is so pretty.” he ran to take a look closely with a never-ending smile on his face.
When BaiYing was enjoying all the beautiful items along the side of the busy road, appeared a group of big carriages escorted by many guards from the direction of the end of the road.
“Hiaa hiaa!”
The carriage might belong to the royal family or officials, with such a big shape and beautiful details and some flags with palace symbols, as everyone stepped aside BaiYing still standing in the middle of the road, his eyes widened wide as he saw the group heading towards him and too late to go step aside.
“Hiaaa hiaa !!”
The carriage group headed towards him, BaiYing gulps and froze in his position until his body fell fainting to the ground before the group arrived in front of him.
“Brukk”
