143 The Old Man

The next match, throwing spears while riding,

AYa was sitting on her horse holding a long spear twice as long as her horse, and preparing to run towards the end of the field, meanwhile, she had to throw her spear at the bell thrown by the guard at the end of the field, there was only one spear with one bell that was only the size of a teacup that LuoXiang was now holding, so that opportunity only came once, for that time, the match between the Crown Prince and aYa was a draw as both of them managed to hit the bell just as it flew in front of their heads.

FuLan were sitting enjoying the peanut, nudge Baiying’s hand who looked lethargic,

“Look, she was lucky because she managed to throw a spear, she’s not bad, but look at His Majesty, he didn’t even need to use a bit of his effort, oh His Highness Crown Prince is such an epic”

The next game, because the third match decided the winner, so this time it was BaiYing who had to propose what they would compete in, and, because BaiYing loved food, FuLan gave an idea, what if the two of them cut the vegetables, in a very fast time, the winner decided from the one who’s the fastest and the neatest, and this time, FuLan will be the judge, the vegetable that will be cut that day is...

“The radish!” FuLan exclaimed holding up a radish that was quite large, twice as her head, she lifted it with a big smile.

“Who can cut the radish neatly and correctly, will come out victorious.”



Best

LuoXiang held his breath, rolling his eyes upwards.

“Is there anything else? How about riding, or cutting leaves with a sword, running on water, this is very easy, what’s the competition for?”

.....

While aYa looked at the radish in her hand, up and down, turned it, looked at it carefully, she often ate it, but, how to cut it? The girl thought hard.

“That’s Your Majesty, because it’s so easy, of course, Your Majesty won’t find it difficult right, I assure you, my judgment will be done blindly, so that means I won’t see who cut which one, so this will be very fair”

The Crown Prince On the other hand, how was he, an honorable Crown Prince, supposed to do this job? What’s this? This was all done by the maid, how could he cut that, radish? But, he couldn’t lose to that girl, no matter what he wouldn’t let that stubborn girl win, LuoXiang thought, thinking so hard that his brows furrowed, he remembered how many times BaiYing liked the dried radish that his servant made, as well as stir-fried radish, as well as pickled radish, so which one would he cut? Hmm.

By late afternoon, the match was finally over, and of course, it was predictable who would be the winner, who else if not the Crown Prince.

LuoXiang stood waiting for BaiYing who was bidding farewell for not being able to see each other for a while with AYa, inside the Peony Garden, while LuoXiang, FuLan, and others waited outside.

BaiYing smiled at aYa whose face was not excited at that time.

“Erm, we will still be able to meet at Peach Pavilion right, morning class”

AYa pulled her lips,

“Looks like I won’t be able to Ying, just like I promised His Highness the Crown Prince, it looks like I’ll be skipping class too”

Hearing this BaiYing took a deep breath.

“Heh, I want to say it, it’s impossible to beat His Highness the Crown Prince, he was born with all the abilities he has, he can always defeat any enemy, so there’s very little you can beat him, he can’t even sew, still better at using a needle than other people, he can’t cook, but if he tries to do it, the taste is also good, not bad at all, so whatever he does, he can always do it right”

AYa was silent as BaiYing continued to talk until she covered her mouth in a smile.

“Hehe”



BaiYing turned his head, stopping his speech seeing AYa who finally laughed, the young man scratched his head.

“Hehe, what, something funny?”

AYa nodded,

“Yeah, Ying’er, your eyes shine when you talk all about His Highness the Crown Prince, look at your cheeks, they’re red like this”

BaiYing held his cheek.

“Hey, really? This, maybe because the air is a bit cold.”

AYa held BaiYing’s hand which was holding his cheek.

“What’s with this cold weather, look, your cheeks are like tomatoes.”

Her hand tightly gripped BaiYing’s hand as if she didn’t want to let go, however, someone then came and pulled BaiYing’s hand away from her.

“Are you done talking? You said just a moment”

LuoXiang pulled BaiYing towards her, looking at aYa with big eyes.

“Come on, let’s go home, it’s getting colder, you’ll catch a cold Ying” said LuoXiang as he pulled BaiYing’s robes up and pulled him away from aYa, who could only stand still as she watched the young man go and be pulled out.

BaiYing still managed to smile while waving his hand at AYa, he smiled widely until his eyes disappeared.

“Bye aYa, see you later!” BaiYing exclaimed, aYa couldn’t help but smile, she waved her hand at the young man who was getting further and further away.

“See you later.”

Finally, LuoXiang and BaiYing and their entourage walked back to Plum Pavilion, the sky was already dark and the air was getting colder, LuoXiang’s hand tightly held BaiYing’s hand and walked very close to him.

“Look at your hand, does it’s still hurt?”

LuoXiang gently holds BaiYing’s hands, which almost blistered earlier.

“It’s better Majesty, the ointment from Princess Aya was so good”

Crown pinched nose Baiying exasperation.

“You, next time you should more be careful, I do not want your smooth skin is always getting injured here and there”

Baiying nodded.

“Yess Your Majesty”

LuoXiang passionately wants to pinch the kid again, if only he did not hold back, he looped BaiYing’s hand to his arm.

“This child, your skin is getting cold like this, um, shall we have fish soup tonight? With radish pieces?”

BaiYing nodded, he was starving.

“Erm! It looks delicious, oh yeah Lan’er sister will come with us to eat,”

LuoXiang nodded.

“Of course, look at your cheeks, they’re red from the cold, your nose too, it’s so cute” LuoXiang’s hand occasionally wanted to pinch BaiYing’s nose again but the young man brushed it off.

“Ah Your Majesty, it hurts”

While at the back, where FuLan walked with her maid as well as the two BaiYing maids who were approaching him.

“Eh, sorry Your Majesty, but, I saw earlier that the radish pieces belonged to Your Majesty and also princess aYa is both not good, but why did Your Majesty say that His Highness the Crown Prince won?” Bi whispered, FuLan glanced at BaiYing’s personal maid, she threw her handkerchief into the maid’s face.

“Stupid girl, of course, His Majesty has to won, even though the cut is not right but he does it according to what Ying’er has done so far, that means even if the cut is not correct, but it is still the radish that Ying’er likes, while princess aYa, the cut is so messed, whether is big or small, really irregular.”

Hearing Concubine Fu’s answer, BaiYing’s two personal maids pursed their lips.

“Ohh I see” even though they still scratching their heads confused.

FuLan smiled, of course, she will choose the Crown Prince, is she stupid and wants to lose her head? Since the beginning Princess AYa, who is dreaming of competing with the Crown Prince, who does she think she is? So funny, FuLan thought while grinning.

“Heh”

........................

Thump thump thump!

Heavy footsteps in the number of more than one person pushed through the front fences and filled the courtyard of the simple hut in the middle of the forest, an old house, with many kinds of wood that were almost damaged and partially eaten by termites, stairs that had broken due to rotting wood until terrace with holes in the floor in several places.

Before long heavy footsteps flocked in with the sound of armor that looked quite heavy, the armor belonging to the palace guard of Crown Prince YueYang stopped at the door, that morning’s commander, LiuFu knocked on the door which was about to fall due to rickety.

“Excuse me”

A momment, there was no sound of any movement from inside the hut, the tall, big young man who was one of BeiYau’s confidants knocked again.

“Excuse me, is anyone home?” he exclaimed.

Until after waiting for a while, the sound of footsteps and knocks on the floor approached, until the door opened from the inside.

“Yeah, who suddenly came to visit this ramshackle house.”

Commander Liu swallowed his saliva, the person who opened the door, a half hunchbacked man, with a wrinkled face, with a pair of eyes that were completely white, he was probably blind, but his ears moved as if to examine how many people were now standing on his rickety terrace, the old man with all the gray hair chuckled.

“Hehehehe, there are a lot of guests, is there anything that this old man can help with these young people? My house is rickety and there are no treasures, so there’s nothing to take or ask for.” The old man’s voice sounded light, after speaking he chuckled dryly, making Commander Liu even more gulping, glancing at his subordinates close to him, what, this is a man old are they looking for? The person who was said to be a powerful shaman, who was specially ordered by the Crown Prince to be found immediately and brought to the palace, that old man? Old man, who smells like dirt? Might they be wrong?

The sound of the old man’s laughter while stroking his beard, as if he had already guessed the arrival of his special guest that morning.

“Hehehehe this is great”
