CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE-Chapter 634
634 An Obligation
The young officials, consisting of one young man and one young woman, who was under Feng Han’s office nodded and listened carefully, even making sure their men took notes on everything the young minister said.
“Then Minister, is His Majesty also planning to build a pond and garden to the west there? The one near the valley?” asked the female official.
Feng Han looked into the distance, until now the construction of the officials and soldiers complex had not been completely finished because of the huge area. No matter how fast they work, they still can’t finish it in a short time.
Feng Han nodded.
“Oh yeah that’s right, I have to go back to see His Majesty to ask about the design he wants. Em, mister Fu, please have the architect make some designs, I’ll submit it to him, the pond and the bridge are the most important parts, they shouldn’t be made in a haphazard way.”
The young man named master Fu nodded.
“Yes Minister, I will have some architects make some designs and present them to you tomorrow before noon.”
Feng Han nodded.
“Thank you, Mr Fu, we should present the design in hurry because His Majesty will be very busy lately, a lot of things happened and I barely had a chance to meet him. Hmh, I have to start making appointments through Advisor Shin”
.....
The young officials nodded, and they continued on their way following Feng Han who was meticulous with every detail of his work.
“Oh yeah, Miss Li, don’t forget the building materials imported from the Cloud Forest, His Majesty has ordered us not to taint and destroy anything at all in the forest, you have to make sure of that, okay”
Miss Li is a young woman in the uniform of a young official of the palace’s Internal Affairs department nodded.
“Ready Minister, before noon I will head to the forest to observe the transfer of raw materials by myself, I will make sure there are no problems as His Highness wants.”
Feng Han nodded. They resumed walking at the edge of the field where the soldiers were training.
“Ready! Left! Right! Stronger!” exclaimed the team leader who was training his men to exercise. The voices of the young warriors’ simultaneous exclamation of Xin Hua sounded excited.
“Haaaa!!”
......
“White Tiger?” asked the Crown Prince.
He was standing in front of the garden in the Geese villa of Elder Yi’s residence, Shin Ya also came to the residence of the Grand Master Xin Hua palace.
Elder Yi nodded, he stroked his chin even though there wasn’t even a single stubble on it.
“That’s right Your Majesty, I also feel the vibration, and that energy is not only powerful, but also full of revelation. And it was highly unlikely that all humans could obtain such power, even more impossible for Prince Li Hua to have one. He is just a mere human, to have that much power, at least it takes the body of a creature that has been cultivated for less or more a thousand years and the human body is too fragile to accommodate that much power.”
Shin Ya frowned, he also thought like that, but, what he felt yesterday was not his imagination, let alone being able to awaken the Divine King of Nature’s eye. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢
“But, if it’s not Prince Li Hua, then where does that power come from?” he asked.
Elder Yi nodded.
“That could be Mister Shin, just like what happened to Xiao Hong in the past, Huo Li who is an ordinary human can master his powers by taking the trust of this mystical creature. Humans are the most cunning creatures that ever existed, they can do anything for the sake of power and strength. But, that is, very unlikely. For this matter, even I am also out of ideas, Your Highness. Looks like we really have to find out more about who this Prince Li Hua really is.”
.....
The sound of running water from the fish pond beside Plum’s villa could be heard clearly. Accompanied by the melodious singing of beautiful birds that inhabit the tall plum trees that surround the villa. The sun is bright with a blue sky all stretched above without limit.
Bai Ying swayed his two legs sitting by the pond while enjoying the peanut cakes that accompanied the hot tea after breakfast. Yan and Bi as well as several villa maids walk around whether to serve Bai Ying or clean the villa.
It was still early, but Bai Ying had woken up alone without the Crown Prince by his side. Where did that man go so early in the morning?
Bai Ying was still chewing until his mouth swelled up when he saw his older brother enter the villa.
“Um, brother? What thunder brings my dear brother come to visit so early in the morning?”
Chen Ming drew closer. Sitting beside Bai Ying who was busy enjoying all the snacks that never ran out of stock.
“Brat, can’t your big brother visit you?”
Bai Ying smiled so that both of his eyes disappeared seeing his brother’s sullen face.
“Hehehe, why are you so grumpy, yeah, it’s not like you visited me often, um, where is Xiao Hong?” he asked, not seeing Xiao Hong who as usual always followed his brother wherever he went. And he seemed to know why his brother’s face looks irritating just now.
“That ugly bird left early in the morning, um, isn’t that rotten Crown Prince here too?” he asked.
Bai Ying pursed his lips. Seeing his brother’s head and eyes glancing here and there as if looking for something.
“Brother, why do you always call His Majesty the rotten Crown Prince? That sounds not very good, brother”
“That is up to me, whether I want to call him a rotten Crown Prince or a perverted Crown Prince, so what? Did you object? Are you now take sides on others more than your own family?”
Bai Ying looked at Chen Ming with sharp eyes.
“Brother, what does that have to do with it? What is the meaning of defending others over my own family, brother knows what Ying er has felt towards the Crown Prince, after all this time do you still doubt him?” Bai Ying said pulling Chen Ming’s hand.
Chen Ming removed Bai Ying’s hand from him, looking at his brother with sharp eyes.
“Well, if not then what? Did Brother ever think about the interests of the palace which is your biological family compared to going with the Crown Prince to Yue Yang? Then, what do you think this Xin Hua is?”
Chen Ming’s loud words shocked Bai Ying. Staring at Chen Ming with his pair of teary eyes was like holding back the tears that were stuck under his eyes. 𝑓𝘳ℯ𝒆w𝘦𝘣𝙣𝘰ѵ𝘦𝚕.c𝗼𝓶
Chen Ming stuttered, not expecting his loud words to make his brother see him like that.
“B-brother”
He was about to grab Bai Ying’s hand but he turned his back on him.
“Xiao Ying” Chen Ming tried to move him away but Bai Ying kept brushing him off.
“Hey, are you mad? If that’s the case, please forgive me, don’t be angry like that.”
Bai Ying turned to look at his brother with sharp eyes, trying to hold back his tears.
“Brother, then what do you think Ying er should do about that?”
Bai Ying’s question made Chen Ming stutter. He, who had been hard and tried to stay hard on his younger sibling, turned out to be unable to continue his words when he saw his sad face. He grabbed Bai Ying’s hand and held it tightly. He should have known what was bothering his little brother all this time, Chen Ming could only awkwardly scratch his head.
“Um, please forgive me, I shouldn’t talk like that, but, it’s the truth, you know, as a King, you can’t abandon your citizens to go with the rotten Crown Prince.. uh, well that person wherever he goes. You are the King, in terms of the position you and the Crown Prince are equal, no one can obey the other party by force. In the past, when Xiao Ying was just a young master of an ordinary merchant, it would be different. Now, you have an obligation that you must do.”
Chen Ming saw Bai Ying’s sad face and raised one hand to wipe the tears that were falling down Bai Ying’s cheeks.
“Grandma, don’t want to say this, because she doesn’t want you to be sad, but, I have to say all of this. Sorry, little brother, this, everything is fate, I also have no power over it.”
Bai Ying raised his head, and looked into the distance with his back to Chen Ming didn’t want his brother to see he couldn’t stop his tears.
“If Ying er was just the Son of an ordinary merchant, none of this would be so complicated right, brother?”
Chen Ming pulled his lips, he knew what burden was on his younger brother’s shoulders. Although he doesn’t want to think about it, this problem will arise sooner or later, and they can’t escape from it. Chen Ming move forward and pulled his brother in his arms, resting his head on Bai Ying’s shoulder who looked away from him.
“Little brother, forgive me if everything doesn’t happen as the way you want”
