CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

Chapter 295



295 The Thousand Wind Inn

“Ouch the wind is so strong”

Lan’er peeked out, but couldn’t open the old curtain because the howling wind sent dust flying.

“I hope we get to the inn as soon as possible, this hurricane is really troublesome.”

BaiYing nodded, while ChenMing also sat inside with them, of course, as an honourable Prince he couldn’t allow himself to be dirty and dusty with so much wind outside.

“Hey, is there water for bathing at the inn later? My body is already itching just looking at the wind, heh brother, tonight, if He doesn’t take a bath, don’t let that rotten Crown Prince sleep in the same bed with you, he’ll make you itch later.”

Hearing that BaiYing whose face instantly turned red from embarrassment hit ChenMing’s hand.

“Brother MingMing, what are you talking about?”

Lan’er covered her mouth, the young man’s blushing face was adorable.

“Hehehe that’s right brother, right now the Crown Prince’s body must be very dirty, don’t let him climb onto the bed before he cleans up.”

.....

BaiYing puffed his mouth out in embarrassment.

“Yes Sister, no need to repeat it, by the way, this is Ying’er’s personal matter.”

Lan’er laughed, of course, it was the young man’s personal matter, but the young concubine couldn’t help teasing him.

“Hehehe, this little brother is so shy”

“Don’t need to be so shy Lil brother, everyone already knows it” continued ChenMing.

“Brother!” BaiYing shouted loudly.

....

Finally, the group entered the path that had been made in such a way, not far in front, at the end of the road, a large building that stood behind series of a high rocks mountains that protected the two-story building from strong winds. The wind seemed to stop when it got there.

There are several other small buildings around the large building which is used as a place to put horses and a barn, it looks like some horses are already in the stable. Maybe it belonged to the guesses. A chandelier is seen at the front of a very simple building that is very closed, there are no windows, it is purposely made to prevent the wind and dust that can enter the inn, the Crown Prince raised his head, saw a directional lamp with a flag that read Thousand Winds Inn which was indeed placed in the highest position above the rocky mountain, it was very helpful that every passerby could find the location easily.

Crown Prince glance at BeiYau, ordering any of his men to come in and take a look first. BeiYau nodded, he waved his hand at one of his men who were not far behind him.

Shortly after, after making sure the condition is safe enough for everybody to enter, the entourage go inside the inn just to take cover first, but not to stay overnight, as the innkeeper said,

“What does it mean? All rooms are booked? But we already ordered it, one of my men also came to book this place” BeiYau shouted in front of the reception desk where a middle-aged grown man was serving them. The man with an unpretentious face tried to smile even though BeiYau’s face looked so fierce.

“Eh forgive me Master, but, they came first, ordered two days ago.”

While BaiYing and Lan’er were already sitting in the living room and a waiter was seen serving everyone with drinks, at least they could enter and take shelter from the windstorm out there.

“Are you tired Ying?” asked the Crown Prince gently, brushing BaiYing’s hair behind his ear.

The young man shook his head, he instead saw the Crown Prince who was wearing a robe that was already full of dust, realizing that Crown Prince immediately took off his dirty robe, and gave it to Yan who was standing not far nearby.

BaiYing glanced at Lan’er, his eyes widened as if to say that the Crown Prince’s body wasn’t as dirty as his two older brothers said, Lan’er just shrugged her shoulders while enjoying the hot tea that was handed to her, even though, it tasted so bad that she quickly vomited it out..

“Wow, this is undrinkable, so bad, the water taste like sand,” said Lan’er.

BaiYing nudged Lan’er’s hand so she wouldn’t speak too loudly because the inn waiter who gave them the water was still standing not far from them, she could hear her.

“Sister, don’t speak too loud” the boys whispered.

But Lan’er didn’t care.

“Well, but that is the truth, don’t drink it, you’ll get a stomachache if you do, we still have a lot of tea on the carriage, have you brought it down Bi?” she asked while turning to Bi who was standing behind them, the maid nodded.

“Yes, Your Majesty”

Meanwhile, BeiYau was still negotiating with the innkeeper. BeiYau’s eyes widened.

“Do you know who we really are? His Majesty, uh, I mean, our esteemed Young Master can’t possibly rest in the stables, give us one of the best rooms out of so many rooms, there’s are so many rooms in your inn, your guests are not worth more than us!” cried Bei Yau.

Just as BeiYau’s voice was rising from being too emotional, suddenly there was a sound of wind near his ear where suddenly an object flew right behind his head.

“Sheets!”

Luckily BeiYau who had eyes in the back of his head dodged quickly, his eyes widening at what was stuck on the table, a small bent dagger.

“Insolent! Who dares to have a word about Our master is not worth more than your master?” the very loud voice, soon from the direction of the door which been opened by servant several people appeared, even more behind them.

BeiYau and his soldiers were on standby, Crown Prince was still sitting leisurely brushing BaiYing’s hair which was messy due to the wind, he didn’t want his very nice atmosphere with the young man to be disturbed even by the slightest thing unimportant thing, he was so too tired from their journey and to touch every inch of his YingYing could gather his energy back.

“Ying how about your waist? Does it still hurt?” asked the Crown Prince softly.

BaiYing shook his head, because sitting in the carriage for too long made him scream out of boredom and backache, but, it might not be much.

XuYi approached BaiYing, he was quite nervous to see so many strangers that entered the living room at once, the big tall people in full armour like a group of soldiers, but, where are they soldiers from?

“Young Master, is it this harmless?” he whispered.

BaiYing glanced at BeiYau, he had never seen the bodyguard’s face so stern as this before, the young man seemed to be able to kill the enemy even with just a look in his eyes.

Just as predicted, BeiYau’s lightning-fast hand pulled the crooked dagger from the table and threw it back at the people who threw it.

And the dagger was caught so easily by one of the youths standing in the second row, those people were definitely not ordinary people, thought the Crown Prince who was getting his attention. He straight up his sit up, glanced at BeiYau.

“Bei, don’t waste time serving them, we need the room, everyone is tired,” said the Crown Prince.

BeiYau looked towards the back innkeeper.

“Boss, our room please”

The innkeeper stuttered, he looked at BeiYau and looked at the many burly men with black armour who had gathered in the living room, they had already reserved all the rooms for themselves.

“B-but young master, please forgive Servant”

ChenMing approached, he threw a rather heavy cloth pouch on the table, dropped it in front of the innkeeper.

“Brukk!”

“This, the amount is even enough to buy your inn, did they give you more than this old man?” as usual the rich young man with so much extra cash in his pocket didn’t like to argue too long over what his money could solve, he thought.

The innkeeper lifted that fairly heavy cloth pouch, loosened the knots to see what was inside, of course, his eyes were wide open, it was gold coins and jewellery with an amount he had seen for the first time in his life, his eyes sparkling.

“T-this, that’s a lot”

ChenMing smirked, looking at one of the men standing in front with the biggest body and thick beard that covered his chin as if he was the gatekeeper of hell, the man clenched his fists holding the hilt of his long weapon resembling the wand of his sword.

“Hey, these guys, maybe just paying you a small amount of money, we won’t kick them out of here, but, at least all of our people can stay in the room, after all, looking at their looks, they probably used to be sleeping outside with nature around them, how is it different from now, want to stay in the room?”

Hearing ChenMing’s sarcasm word, several large men standing behind the bearded man charged forward,

“God damn it, what a jerk this fellow!”

“He really looking for death!”

But BeiYau’s hand was already stretched out forward with sword in hand, so were several of his flagship soldiers.

“Sreet!”

The sound of a sword being pushed from its scabbard ready to be drawn, BeiYau’s eyes stared intently at the men.

“Watch your mouths, speak politely, look who you are talking to now?”
