Chapter 353

353 Annoying Brother

Both of them were busy making noise, while SuLang was still stunned where he was, not understanding what was happening, but for sure, he recognized the figure in front of him now, a tall, sturdy figure with a beautiful robe that sparkled as it fluttered in the air, a clean and handsome face as bright as the afternoon sun, the wind caressing his long hair gently. Stunned for too long with his mouth wide open, SuLang immediately clenched his fists and bowed his head in salute.

“Servant sincerely greetings Your Highness the Prince!”

ChenMing and BaiYing finally turned their heads, BaiYing forgot that young master Su was nearby.

ChenMing chuckled, he saw the figure of the young man from head to toe, he still recognized the young man.

“Hem young master Su, you, also here? What are you doing with my brother?”

SuLang’s eyes went wide, that young man, he is the younger brother of Prince ChenMing? As far he knows, his younger brother was the Viceroy of XinHua, SuLang’s eyes widened, realizing that BaiYing immediately waved his hand.

“N-no, hehe, I, the other brother, eh hehehe”

ChenMing widen his eyes at BaiYing, while BaiYing glanced his eyes gesturing at his older brother, who inwardly asked, why is he lying?

However, SuLang apparently has misrecognized people all this time, it’s only natural that the young man has clothes and shoes that are very expensive, he is a member of the XinHua palace family, of course, he is a young Prince.

.....

“This Eh..”

ChenMing hooked all his fingers into BaiYing’s hand, holding it tightly.

“Come on brother, let’s find a place to rest, heh, unfortunately for us to cross with bandits in the middle of the day like this”

BaiYing complied when his brother’s hand took him to a more shady place, while his men overcame the bandit attack not far in front of them, couldn’t help but SuLang followed the two, he scratched his head clumsily, what should he do now? His new friend turn out to be someone he never thought about, all his plans shattered in pieces.

“Heh”

“Brother, what took you so long to follow? These couple days have Ying been starving” BaiYing shouted.

“Oh, so you want big brother to follow you? Is that what you mean?” Chen Ming asked.

“Well, it can’t be helped, Ying forgot to bring money, and Ying couldn’t possibly return to the palace, but, Ying didn’t want to starve to death, it feels really bad Brother”

“Let you know how the taste it, who told this very smart kid to run away? So great, running away from home, without bringing anything, look at your face, dirty, unkempt, look at your hands, ouch, how can you look like a homeless kid like this? Ouhh” ChenMing exclaimed checking BaiYing’s whole body which was covered in dust.

“And why wear such an ugly robe?”

“This is a new robe, it’s not that ugly.”

“It’s ugly! Look at your face, two days without seeing you you’re just getting thinner, this kid”

BaiYing smiled, no matter how shrill his brother’s voice was that he missed so much, he had to admit, live in the outside the palace turns out to be not as pleasant and easy as he thought, since he’s younger, he always lived at home with all the conveniences, when on trips he was always spoiled by the Crown Prince, and when he went out alone, it was really very difficult.

“Hehe big brother, Ying misses big brother so much”

“Naughty boy, still have no shame talking like that?”

.....

Shortly after.

The Prince’s entourage was accompanied by the head guard GeLu, one of the best guards in the palace, and luckily ChenMing brought his carriage so BaiYing could take a rest inside it. They stopped for a moment on the side of the small street leading to the next town while enjoying their lunch, which of course, ChenMing was a very classy prince, if he could take a whole palace with him wherever he went if he could, even though the main mission of their trip was to save people, but ChenMing brought his personal maid, the cook, and not to forget, in the group of up to tens of people, it turned out that two of BaiYing’s maids were also joining in.

“Older brother! Why do you have the heart to punish Ying’er’s sisters? It’s not their fault at all, Brother!” BaiYing exclaimed annoyed, his maids, Yan and Bi bowed their heads deeply, in front of Prince ChenMing who was sitting leisurely enjoying the tea served by the servant in front of his carriage.

“So what? They have neglected to take care of you, next time XiaoYing escapes again, the punishment for them will be much heavier, just remember that” ChenMing said casually.

BaiYing angry, of course, he was furious, he turned Yan’s body where there was a very large inscription on her back shoulder.

“But brother, wearing this all the way is a big insult, they will be ashamed, Brother, isn’t the punishment only valid in the palace? This brother is so outrageous.”

On the back of Yan’s clothes, in very large words that anyone could read “I like to fart” and on the back of Bi, it reads “I like to pick my nose.

The two maids couldn’t keep their faces but down, they were so embarrassed because all the guards kept laughing at them.

BaiYing stomped his foot.

“I don’t care! If Big Brother doesn’t lift their sentence, Ying won’t speak with Big Brother anymore, for good!”

ChenMing pulled his lips, his eyes bulging at BaiYing who turned his head away from him.

“Ich this kid, why are you treating your own brother like that, let them be punished, or else you won’t give up on running away next time?”

“That’s Ying’s business and doesn’t get anything to do with them, Big Brother is not fair”

ChenMing looked around, at young master Su who was sitting not far behind them, then at the head guard GeLu who didn’t dare to meet his eyes, he finally waved his hand.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“Yeah yeah, just let go of the inscription, let’s just say they’re lucky this time”

Yan and Bi lowered their knees in front of Prince ChenMing.

“Thank you, Your Highness, the Prince”

ChenMing looked at BaiYing who was looking at him with a smile as if he was satisfied with the result of his wooing.

“Brat”

...

Late afternoon.

The group finally arrived at the borders of the big city of SuChou, the city of SuChou was one of the successful and quite wealthy big cities, many of them were the descendant of WahYe including the city’s founding family from several generations, Su, and several high-ranking YueYang who came from there. It could be said that high-ranking YueYang officials were descendants of the citizens of WahYe as well.

The main street of the city was quite bustling, oil lamps had been lit, and several large lanterns had been hung high on the gates. The city gate guards let Prince ChenMing’s entourage enter after the entourage showed the special stamps of the cities of PaiHua and SuiLian, recently these two cities have become increasingly well known because of the revival of the XinHua palace which is heard throughout the country.

Young Master Su was very honoured to invite Prince Chen and entourage to stay in one of the large villas belonging to the Su family, which must have been empty for a while since all the other families were in villas on the other side of town.

The group stopped right in front of the gate of the big house, the housemaid immediately greeted the group with a half bowed body.

“Welcome young master, uh, young master, bringing a lot of guests,” said the middle-aged maid who looked up to look at SuLang who was still sitting on his horse.

SuLang glanced at ChenMing who was sitting on his white horse in front of the carriage, remembering what the Prince’s told him was.

“Ahem, old man Hu, here, Young Master’s from XinHua city, and we will stay in the villa for the night, please prepare all available rooms, and em, I want to write an express letter for father, please arrange” SuLang’s last words whispered, he didn’t want the Prince to hear it.

Old man Hu, the old man nodded his head.

“Yes Young Master” he rushed to the house and opened the door very wide, one by one the subordinates of the head of GeLu’s men got off their horses, several servants including Yan and Bi who were in a rather small carriage behind the golden carriage also got off orderly.

ChenMing frowned, why did that brat take so long to get out of his carriage? What is he doing?

Finally, ChenMing jumped down from the horse and approached the carriage.

“Little brother” he cried, he pushed back the curtains of the carriage, and found BaiYing already fast asleep on the floor of the carriage, so sound asleep that he didn’t realize that they had arrived at their destination.

“Heh, this kid.”

Slowly, lifting up his slightly heavy clothes, ChenMing boarded the big carriage, rocking BaiYing’s hand, who was sleeping so soundly that he was delirious.

“Your Majesty, let’s pull the rope, pull it far away”

ChenMing tugged his lips, the kid, he must be very tired after two days lying on the road, also not getting enough food, so poor kid, thinking about his beloved little brother having trouble outside the house makes ChenMing hurt.
