691 How Could You?

Soon after.

The crowd of guards sounded loud. The Crown Prince orders everyone to find Bai Ying who disappeared from his room and even look for him at the Deer villa, and sure enough, Bai Ying who hears the commotion outside immediately comes out before the Crown Prince brings the guards in and disturbed his brother rests.

“Ying er, where have you been? What are you doing here?” Crown Prince shouted holding Bai Ying’s hand who was approaching him with an unenthusiastic face. Suddenly the rain falls heavily, and now the calm sky is raining with lightning striking here and there. Instantly makes Bai Ying wet from the rain that fell unpredicted.

Luo Xiang pulled Bai Ying’s hand to take shelter from the rain immediately.’

“Come on Ying er, let’s take cover”

But Bai Ying shook off the Crown Prince’s hand, he just stood where he was looking at the Crown Prince with a sharp gaze. His eyes were red from crying, even though his tears had mixed with the rainwater that had soaked his face and body.

“Your Highness, why, why did Your Highness change? Why?” he asked in a trembling voice. Luo Xiang held Bai Ying’s hand again, pulling him.

“What are you talking about? Who’s changed? Ying er, let’s go home and we’ll have a good talk, you’re not feeling well right now” said the Crown Prince trying to pull Bai Ying who was still reluctant to move from his place. He pushed the Crown Prince’s chest away from him.

“Why did Your Majesty have the heart to allow Grandpa’s wishes to punish big brother with such cruel punishment? Why Didn’t Your Highness stop him? Why?” Bai Ying touches his chest. Damn, the poison always relapsed at the wrong time. It is right as what Young Master Su said, if he was also get poisoned which made him weak and unable to rebel, sooner or later he would end up like his older brother too. It so hurt that he can’t get his body standing straight.

.....

“Akh”

Luo Xiang aware of that, held Bai Ying’s hand.

“Ying er”

But again Bai Ying brushed his hand away.

“Let me go, get out of here, and never come back. I don’t want to see your face, go away!” he shouts loudly, he never shouts that loud to anyone before this, not ever, especially to his love, The Crown Prince, but, just look at his face now, his heartache imagining that his love may be had changes, long time ago.

But the Crown Prince did not let him go.

“Ying er, don’t do this, let’s get out of here together, Okay? I won’t let you also suffer as your brother, I will take care of you. Brother swears to take care of you”

The sound of the pouring rain made the two of them speak loudly. Luo Xiang was anxious to see Bai Ying brushing his hand away and finally hugging him tightly.

“Ying er, don’t, please don’t chase me away, my dear, forgive your brother for being so helpless at a time like this, if I could do anything I couldn’t possibly let all of this happen. Ying er, you know how I feel about you right? How could I possibly hurt you let alone leave you in a place like this?”

He hugged Bai Ying tightly, he could feel the boy’s body tremble from crying so hard. Bai Ying couldn’t stop crying, even his hands were too weak to push the big man away from him, he hugged him so tight.

“Huks, Your Highness, why didn’t Your Highness do something, why did Your Highness let my brother be like that? Huks, poor brother Ming Ming, my poor brother”

Luo Xiang held back his tears. He lifted his head up to hold back the tears that were about to fall from the corner of his eyes. He lowered his body and lifted Bai Ying, carrying him out of the Deer Villa complex.

“Come on, let’s go home, okay”

The pouring rain accompanied the departure of the Crown Prince with Bai Ying and their entourage out of the courtyard of the villa. Someone from behind the window watched them leave. Su Lang stood with a sharp gaze toward the group of people who were none other than their enemies. He clenched his fists.

“This, what is this?” Bai Ying asked. He wiped away his tears seeing something that was now in Su Lang’s hand. A small white ceramic bottle. It wasn’t much bigger than his index finger so he could hide it in his fist.

At Plum Villa.

Bai Ying, who was already sitting on the edge of his bed, looked at the small bottle that was in his hand for a long time.

“Nerve poison?” Bai Ying repeated. Su Lang nodded.

“That’s right, this is the most dangerous neurotoxin that I found in one of Du Gu San’s men who ran away and died instantly when he fell from a cliff. I secure it, waiting for the right time to be able to use it. Originally, I wanted to give it to His Highness the Crown Prince so he could think about his next plan for this poison. But, Guard Bei forbade me. At that time, Guard Bei already knew something bad was going to happen so he said that I better keep it to myself, just in case it might come in handy someday.”

Bai Ying looked at Su Lang for a long time. And the young man also looked at him for a long time.

“Master Su, what exactly happened? In my dream, Wah Ye wasn’t like this, let’s just say I’m dreaming then, please tell me what happened so far. What happened to His Majesty King Yen Hui? What about the legend of the eternal flames in the four corners of the palace? What about the supporting pillars? Shaman, General Shi Lei, General Song, where are they all?” Bai Ying asked.

Su Lang was a bit confused by what Bai Ying asked, but he was a very smart young man. He could guess what Bai Ying meant.

“Your Majesty King Yen Hui and the four pillars.” he looked at Bai Ying with big eyes.

“Servant, don’t really know about the four pillars, but I have heard of Shaman Shi Lei. My father once told me about a powerful shaman who already possesses the highest skill of the Divine Shaman and one day will become the chief of the clan, he was very young and powerful and once fought with His Royal Highness Prince Yen Hui to carry out a rebellion. But somehow the story goes, rebellion against Her Majesty Empress Yu Yan was never successful. Queen even caught Shaman Shi Lei and punished him severely. He hung the Shaman’s body on top of the black tower for tens of days until he died of starvation. For several years his body was never even lowered down until finally one by one his bones fell by themselves into the tower building which is said to have trapped his spirit inside there.”

Bai Ying closed his mouth, not believing what just he heard.

“How can Queen Yu Yan be so great? Is there no one in the martial world who can beat her?”

Su Lang thought. He shook his head. ƒ𝘳𝗲𝑒𝒘𝐞𝚋𝚗𝐨v𝘦l.𝒄o𝐦

“According to grandfather’s records, ever since Empress Yu Yan held a ceremony on the night of the blood moon to obtain her powers, no one has been able to beat her anymore. In fact, she is said to have lived to be one hundred and fifty years old before she died peacefully in the underground tomb of Wah Ye palace.”

Bai Ying widened his eyes, why did he not know that there was an underground tomb in Wah Ye palace?

“An underground tomb? Where is that, young master Su, why did I just hear about it?”

Su Lang thought again.

“Em, it should be in the middle of the main palace section, no one knows for sure where the tomb is, only the royal family knows.”

“Then, what happened to His Majesty King Yen Hui? Did he escape all the way to Yue Yang?” he asked.

Su Lang nodded again.

“That’s right, Your Majesty, after decades of being in confinement in the palace, His Majesty King Yen Hui and Empress Lu Mo took refuge in the Yue Yang palace. He fled the palace with their kids, but His Majesty King Wu Yi returned to the palace to claim the throne after Empress Yu Yan died. Everyone supports him because King Wu Yi is one of the disciples of the clan of female priests who master heretical arts.” Su Lang lowered his head quickly.

“Forgive me for speaking presumptuously about His Majesty the King, Your Majesty, but this is what really happened.”

Bai Ying looked down at the small bottle in his hand.

The sky soon began to lighten, he did not sleep all night thinking about what he should do next. If last night he didn’t come back and take the antidote, the poison would be forced into his heart. That would keep him from carrying out his plans today, no matter what, he would do it, now or never.
