Chapter 156

156 No Scratch Allowed

“Your Majesty, it fine, young master Chen even worse than this, and I still can treat it with an ointment, let alone my wound”

“What’s a minor injury? For every inch of the wound on your body is also a wound for me, what if it leave scars? These smooth hands, ouch, you are so careless.”

While ChenMing was restraining himself, he winced in pain from the blisters on his hands but why did the Crown Prince have to call a healer just for such abrasions? Isn’t it too much? When he was about to stand up BeiYau already sat in front of him, grabbed another piece of clean cotton, and applied the ointment very carefully to the wound on ChenMing’s palm.

“Young Master, how did young master get this injury? Let me check”

BeiYau glanced at ChenMing’s chin which looked a little chafed, that smooth face, what a pity, Bei thought as he applied a little ointment to the youth’s chin, for a moment, it felt so comfortable with the cold and somewhat relieved the stings, the young guard hands in front of him are gentler than Concubine Hua’s hands, although he didn’t expend his strength and tried to be gentle, Concubine Hua’s hands were not as good as the young man in front of him.

“Eh, this is, because I was a bit shocked, so I accidentally stepped on a rock and, uh, fell with my right hand holding my body, this is very embarrassing” ChenMing replied.

BeiYau tried to suppress a laugh. The face of the young man in front of him who rarely showed his expression looked very adorable because of the pain.

“Akh”

Meanwhile, ShinYa went to check the wound on BaiYing’s palm with the Crown Prince.

.....

“Your Highness, your hand is very precious, even a little scratch can’t be tolerated,” said ShinYa, BaiYing glanced at the young shaman who seemed to be teasing him.

“Master Shin, it goes without saying that it’s certainly very valuable, what if Ying’er can’t hold food any more due to an injury, Ying’er can get thinner”

ShinYa stifled a laugh, not so LuoXiang who hadn’t let go of BaiYing’s hand yet.

“Well, I can feed YingYing any time” he continued.

BaiYing pursed his lips as if to doubt the Crown Prince’s words.

“I can starve to death waiting for the Honorable Crown Prince to come to feed me every time”

ShinYa approached.

“Ahem, then Your Majesty can still rely on this servant who doesn’t have much to do” he whispered, hearing that LuoXiang’s eyes glared at the young shaman,

“Master Shin are you not loving your head anymore?”

BaiYing held back his laughter, the Crown Prince’s face immediately became very serious looking at ShinYa who seemed not afraid of him and tried to approach him.

“Hehehe Mr Shin”

...........

The morning came again, the sun was already working hard along with the palace maids who had also worked even before sunrise, there was much to be done in the Crown Prince’s palace, since His Highness the Crown Prince was a person who loved cleanliness and beauty, in the past, he’s not bothered to pay attention for all these things, because there was a Queen who always came to see the state of his palace because of the Crown Prince’s busyness, however, since the Crown Prince always stayed at the Plum Pavilion, and several times took BaiYing to the West Dragon Pavilion, and ever since the Crown Prince loved BaiYing very much and not wanting the boy to see all the things that hurt the eye, the Crown Prince’s palace turned so busy, so beautiful and clean that not even single dust remained.

The number of domestic servants, to the best cooks, deliberately brought in from SanPo and its surroundings employs the new butler of the Crown Prince’s palace, LieMa, a stocky middle-aged woman who always smiles to manage all the waiters’ schedules, don’t look at her cute and always smiling face as she’s so kind to everyone, she is no better than ChaiMa who is very firm and has a super voice that can be heard to every corner of the palace, a graduate of the palace maid school, a school established in several big cities to support the demand for high-quality maids for officials and palaces, as the top rank will certainly have the privilege of entering the Emperor’s palace.

The servants must wake up very early, even before the rooster crows, cleaning every pavilion and corner of the palace, before the officials, in the Crown Prince’s palace of course like His Majesty the Crown Prince and the concubines, wake up from their sleep, after that the servants on duty next are servants Individuals who serve the daily duties of higher-ups, such as Yan and Bi, for example, there are also housekeepers who work in the kitchen and warehouse, gardens and ponds in each pavilion, their time of duty is also divided into two, within half a day. the servants would alternate between duties and breaks, and with the position of each servant’s break room located not far from the main house, it was easy to change duties so that everyone would arrive on time.

And just as the sky cleared, all the maids in charge of cleaning the palace were nowhere to be seen walking around the palace.

ChenMing, who temporarily occupied the Goose pavilion, one of the pavilions used to entertain palace guests was seen walking along the path along LuiHe lake, this sunny morning will also be used very well by the young master to enjoy the clean air, accompanied by two servants who often following him, the young master walked slowly while looking at the scenery, just as he was walking on the path, from the front a young general officer passed by, a young man dressed in dark brown, official attire for minor officials bowed his head as he met ChenMing’s path, very Quickly, the man seemed to pick up and put something in ChenMing’s left hand and then passed quickly, no one saw, not even the two maids walking behind the young man would notice.

While walking away, the young general officer unrolled the scroll he took from ChenMing’s hand, reading its contents.

“West wind is blowing hard, fly the sails to the east”

While walking leisurely ChenMing also unrolled the thick paper in his hand, looked at its contents, then quickly clenched his fists when he saw several maids passing by and had time to bow his head in front of him.

“Greetings young master”

ChenMing held his breath, the contents of the wrapped paper contained several letters and a small black pill in the folded paper.

“For the tea” the contents of the writing in the folded paper.

............

SuiLian city border.

The temporary headquarters of the YueYang soldiers led by the guard commander LiuFu, in a military complex that was deliberately built by the YueYang in every city, although usually rarely used and only for routine guarding, that afternoon, the fairly large complex for temporary headquarters which located on the city border and near the SuiLian forest looks quite busy.

From outside the small building beside the main building, a small building that might be very important because several guards stood on standby in its place, the sound of wailing cries of pain could be heard outside the building which was used to place the prisoners who had been captured from the last battle.

After a while, Commander Liu left the room, together with his confidant, he thought for a while until his forehead furrowed deeply.

“Heh these people, they won’t talk even if we kill them, have you guys tracked down the place they visited last? And, why is there no group leader or anyone in authority inside the base, why are we only arresting the small guards?” he asked.

His man shook his head.

“That’s also very strange, Commander, because before there were no more of them than this, and, I also saw several people dressed as Clan officials who were respected by everyone yesterday, today it seems that everyone is out of place”

Commander Liu nodded his head.

Best

“Heh, it is, if these people would not be foolish to let themselves be attacked broad daylight without preparation, we lost a few steps, this time, we’re lucky that Master Yi helped us, otherwise we’ll lose more”

When the two of them were talking seriously, a voice came from the front gate.

“Call your leader here?”

The guards guarding the door looked stuttering, a person with a shiny face and clothes sitting on his tall and dashing white horse, accompanied by several people who were probably none other than his bodyguards, a young man with a very bright smile behind his thin red lips and neatly arranged white teeth with dazzling eyes.

“Young Master Feng! What made you take your very busy time to visit this shabby base?” exclaimed LiuFu who had emerged from behind the building, looking at the youth who immediately looked at him with a cheerful face.

“Wow Commander Liu, you’ve been really busy lately huh? And refused my father’s invitations to dinner.”

His guards helped the young man called Young Master Feng to get off his horse, slowly, the young man approached LiuFu.

FengHan, the young master of the Feng family, the third son of the official FengXi, who is none other than the governor of the city of SuiLian, the young master clearly from his clean and un-usual handsome pale face, is from the WahYe tribe.

LiuFu smiled, he stretched out his hand to help the young master who looked so gentle lead the way towards the house.

“Young master Feng, how could I dare to refuse, only this servant who hasn’t got the chance yet, how did young master Feng get here? Could there be some very important business?”
