Chapter 176

176 Great Grand-Mother

YueWang looked at the girl who was glaring at him, so that he lowered his hand to relieve his inner strength, clenched his fist, and folded it behind his waist. He smirked.

“Heh, DuGu family, you are threatening me apparently, heh, fine, I will let you live, at least until this old man can resurrect the Lost Palace, I will be very patient” the man sat slowly back in his chair, while YeMu tried to get up after falling with her body almost crushed, her eyes still glaring at YueWang, wiping her lips from some her own fresh blood.

“Crazy old man”

YueWang stretched out his hand to the girl.

“Hand over the child’s Coins and blood”

One of YueWang’s underlings from the Black Water Clan, Elder Lao approached, after Sheng’er wasn’t around there should be someone else trusted to take up the position of YueWang’s accomplice, the old man took the thing that YeMu took out from her clothes, a bundle of patterned cloth was then handed into YueWang’s palm.

The old man smiled as he opened the folds of the cloth, a gold coin with a long chain, and a small ceramic bottle.

“Hey, old man Lao, have we started to approach the final location according to the map?”

Old Man Lao nodded, the old man with gray hair mixed with gray hair and a wrinkled face due to his age was none other than one of the leaders of the Black Water clan who had been destroyed and had followed YueWang everywhere since then, the man stroking his beard.

.....

“We will arrive tomorrow afternoon, Viceroy, it is estimated that after passing the creek is the place indicated on the map”

YueWang chuckled.

“Hehehe, with this coin, with Father’s memories in it, Father is indeed very troublesome, why is this such an information only be entrusted to that such a weak little sister? The location of the palace was so important, how could he entrust it to her? It’s really ridiculous, but soon, it all will be mine, hahahahaha” YueWang laughed loudly, his face couldn’t help but imagine all the success of his plan that was in front of his eyes, especially now, inside his palms

“Hahahahaha this is great, this is great! Hahahahaha!”

.........

The sound of the water coming from the pond behind the small house where the Crown Prince and BaiYing lived, sounded so soothing to the soul that it seemed to release all the tiredness that they both had been experiencing due to recent events.

Long straight shiny hair, so silky smooth as the small wooden comb landed smoothly all the way to the end, LuoXiang smiled broadly as he brushed BaiYing’s long hair, after lying helpless for a long time, the young man’s condition gradually recovered so quickly, unexpectedly, according to Elder Huo the great healer who lived for generations in LoHua village, there wasn’t even the slightest trace of poison in BaiYing’s blood, anything that endangered his life, he was only weak due to his fever and now, the boy looked like he was back to normal. This was very strange, LuoXiang thought, but, whatever it was, he didn’t really care, as long as his YingYing wasn’t in any danger, anything was fine.

“YingYing’s hair is so smooth, how do you want to tie it?” whispered LuoXiang lowering his head behind BaiYing’s ear.

Bai Ying smiled.

“Hehe, it’s up to Your Majesty, all this time sister Yan and Bi have been helping to tie it up, tied up as usual.”

LuoXiang smiled.

“Hehehe this isn’t my forte either, but take a look at this, erm, it’s tied here, then...”

Not long after, LuoXiang finally gave in and asked aYa who was already standing behind BaiYing, helping him tie his hair.

“This way it will be more comfortable, and it won’t come off easily,” said aYa, the girl’s hands are so painstaking, of course, she is a girl who always takes care of herself, this job is very easy for her, just two young men who can’t do anything,

“Hehehe thank you aYa, this is pretty” and BaiYing was satisfied with the result, his beautiful hair was partly tied up, then aYa wrapped a golden ribbon from the bun to the length of his hair, BaiYing looks so cute.

LuoXiang refrained from pulling AYa’s hand away, but, considering that the girl was as worried about BaiYing as he was, willingly to sacrifice her life to save the young man, he felt it was okay for her to touch his YingYing once in a while, just, don’t overdo it.

“Heh”

........

WuLan looked at BaiYing’s face who was sitting not far in front of her, couldn’t help the smile on her face seeing his great-grandson she had never seen before, but, nevertheless, she immediately knew that BaiYing was really her great-grandson, while BaiYing himself, he was a bit clumsy, don’t know what he should do than sit in front of a woman who was none other than his mother’s family, a family he didn’t even know existed before, and the old woman indeed had a pretty familiar face, he had seen her face in a piece of her mother’s memory from the Memory coin.

Princess WuLan raised her hand eager to caress the face of the young man in front of her, but she held it, what if the kid didn’t like it? She couldn’t push herself too much, after all, all this time, did she still deserve to be called a great-grandmother because she couldn’t protect her offspring, the old woman pulled her hand back, covering her mouth to hold back her sobs, all this time she was trying to be strong, but, how can an old woman whose body can no longer support all the burdens of his life can hold herself again after all this time.

“Oh”

BaiYing realized that, he then slowly lowered his body in front of the woman, grabbing two wrinkled hands that were shaking slightly.

“Ems, grandma, forgive Ying’er, for being late for home.”

WuLan sobbed, the old woman smiled in tears seeing the young man who was now kneeling in front of her, raised both hands to caress BaiYing’s cheeks, looking at that gentle face with her red eyes from crying, BaiYing realized, old age with all the suffering that he had been through, so he shouldn’t blame the old woman, after all, he had found his family again, and his mother must also be very happy because finally he could go home and hug his grandmother, his own family.

“Ems great-grandmother”

WuLan pulled BaiYing up slowly and hugged him, stroking his hair.

“Oh sweet child, my very sweet great-grandson, oh XiaoYing, grandma didn’t expect to still see your face, oh my XiaoYing, very sweet XiaoYing”

BaiYing hugged WuLan tightly.

“Ying’er is home, Grandma, but, forgive Ying’er for losing Mother’s Coin, forgive Ying’er for not being able to take good care of it.”

WuLan looked at LuoXiang who had been standing in front of the door, he had heard all the stories from The Crown Prince about what happened, how could she possibly blame him.

“It’s not your fault sweetie, it’s not your fault, grandma is very grateful that XiaoYing is fine, don’t think about it, it’s not important, it’s all nothing compared to my cute XiaoYing”

BaiYing tightened his hug.

“Great-grandmother”
