59 Queen's Interventions

Concubine Lui cried when she saw the Queen arrive just in time to save her from punishment.

"Your Majesty"

The Queen glanced at LuoXiang who only lowered his head to salute his mother, and did not expect the Queen to suddenly visit there. This must be because another concubine has snitched out. Yeah that's right, the one who is now standing behind his mother Queen, Concubine Fu, who lowered her body to greet the Crown Prince.

"Greeting Your Highness"

Not long after, there's only the Queen and the Crown Prince in the room enjoying their tea, while the other concubines wait outside.

"Mother, you know how Xiang'er is. I will at least tolerate it if one of my concubines is acting over someone who is not their concern, what will other people think? Because the Crown Prince could not manage his concubines they became arrogant and acted arbitrarily "

The Queen glanced after taking a little sip of her tea, she then put it on the table.

"Well, Mother understands Xiang'er, but you also can't go too far to punish her. Mother feels Fan'er's intention is good, she just a little too much."

The Crown Prince glanced at the Queen, a little irritated, restrained in annoyance.

"Mother calls that a little too much? She brought two prisoners to her house and ordered the guards to torture them. Next time what will she do? Kill them? Then how should Xiang'er deal with someone like that? Does Mother think it's right to do that? Those two little maids could have lost their lives if it wasn't for YingYing who came in time to save them, it's too much. Because of this, Concubine Hua is wounded, she has crossed the line too far."

The Queen sighed, she didn't know what to say, but concubine Lui was not an ordinary person. Concubine Lui is the younger daughter of the Secretary of State. If that man gets angry then it will be a huge problem. LuoXiang seemed to understand what his mother was thinking.

"So, if the state secretary's child can't be punished? So anyone else can? Is that what you mean?"

The Queen stuttered a little, why could the Crown Prince know what she was thinking?

"Eh, that's not what I mean, Xiang'er. Erm how about this, let me punish her for you, what do you think about that?"

The Crown Prince crossed his arms at his chest in annoyance.

"Don't bother with it, Mother, Xiang'er hopes next time Mother doesn't interfere in my household matters. Or if Mother likes her so much, why don't you just take her home for yourself," said the Crown Prince. The Queen swallowed her saliva, as usual, her son who was very stubborn that now even scolding her. He was so angry.

"Eh X-Xiang'er"

The Crown Prince excused himself leaving the Queen alone in the Pavilion room. Even the Queen can't persuade him. Luo Xiang's anger looks so clearly floating above his head.

"Euh that kid"

...…...

At the Lili Pavilion.

BaiYing smiled, sitting on the side of Mu'er's bed which gradually recovered, surprisingly so fast. It says that Mu'er's family brought her a very effective medicine that could slowly heal her damaged organs. Even though it would take a little time because Mu'er did not have the internal force just like him. He was relieved that she was looking better now and was even able to sit and chat with him arranging flowers to kill their boring time.

"This one was put in here, wow it turns out so great." BaiYing's eyes shone at the flower stalks he decorated himself, quite satisfied with the results.

Mu'er, who sat leaning back on her bed, also looked cheerful with a brighter face, not as pale as before.

"This is also good, then tied up here so it won't off easily"

BaiYing lowered his head to see Mu'er's work.

"Which one, sis?"

The two laughed when they saw the results of BaiYing's irregular bonding.

"This is so messy"

"Sister Yen needs to be a little slower, put your finger in here carefully, then wrap it this way, and this way."

BaiYing laughed. His hands were not as skillful as Mu'er's.

"Forgive me, looks like I've ruined this"

......

Towards evening come again, at Plum's pavilion.

"Greetings Your Majesty," voice of the guards who lowered their heads as the Crown Prince passed.

LuoXiang, entered the pavilion room with his two hands behind his waist. He was startled when he heard a very loud sound as he entered the room. He ran.

"Prang !!"

His eyes widened wide looking for the source of the sound, but there were only guards in the living room while BaiYing and his servants were nowhere to be seen. The sound seemed to come from the kitchen outside the backyard, he rushed over.

"YingYing!" he exclaimed.

LuoXiang stopped at the kitchen door where several servants could be seen standing outside the room, all looking into the room which was hard to see since the servants covered it. They turned around when they noticed the Crown Prince's voice behind them.

"Ahem"

Immediately lowered their bodies to salute.

"Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Prince"

LuoXiang waved his hand to ask the servants and cooks to stand up. He turned his head into the kitchen where BaiYing was standing with his back to the door messing up the kitchen with his cooking scene.

"This needs to be cut into small pieces, Sister Yan please wash this"

Luo Xiang raised his finger to stop Yan and Bi's voices who were about to greet him. He ordered the two to step out as BaiYing was busy looking at the pot.

Slowly the Crown Prince settles in.

"It should be cut into small pieces, sis Bi, how the heck is this?" BaiYing glanced back to where the two little servants should have been. He spun around and didn't notice the Crown Prince's huge body that was right behind him.

"Em, where are you guys? it's not done yet"

Feeling something was blocking his way, BaiYing turned his body and hit someone who was now very close to him, so close that he couldn't stop himself from falling when he bumped it.

"Akh" LuoXiang stretched his hand and pulled his waist at him.

"Oops"

The Crown Prince caught his body quickly, grabbed his hand, and hugged him tightly from falling.

"Eh Y-Your Majesty"

All the servants outside held their breath, the scene was so romantic that Yan and Bi couldn't stop smiling.

"Ohh, Your Highness."

They covered their mouths, while BaiYing's big eyes glanced at them.

"What are you looking at?" he exclaimed. The Concubine's loud voice made all of the servants disperse and leave the kitchen.

The Crown Prince tugged his lips. BaiYing's face is so close to his that he couldn't bear to kiss his lips, and cheeks, smelling the scent.

"Erm, my YingYing smells so good"

BaiYing tried to release the Crown Prince's grip on him and put his feet on the floor slowly.

"Eh Y-Your Highness, this is the kitchen, please don't do anything weird in here"

The Crown Prince's gaze as if he wants to eat the kid up.

"Em, I don't do anything weird, I was just hugging my love"

BaiYing pulled his lips, that sweet, cheesy word.

The Crown Prince let go of his grip. BaiYing was very attractive in his eyes wearing an apron with a little charcoal stain on his nose and cheeks. He raised his hand to clean the stain.

"Look at my YingYing's smooth face. Why do you have to get charcoal on your skin? Can you cook? Do you want to cook for me?'' Said the Crown Prince at a very close distance from BaiYing. The kid pushed his away from him.

"Your Majesty, please go out, I want to make something for sister Yan and sister Bi. Because they haven't fully recovered yet so I will make something for them."

The Crown Prince chuckled at BaiYing's adorable words.

"Hehehe, can this cute kid cook?"

BaiYing glanced at the Crown Prince with his sharp gaze, did he underestimated him?
