Chapter 139: Prince’s little quilt 14 (part 2 of 2)

“The crown prince has already come of age, and is exactly at the right period to make contributions to the country. He has also studied under the Grand Secretariat Wei, and is a quick learner, intelligent and courageous. Most importantly, he has the identity to represent the imperial family. The prince’s presence can not only show that His Majesty attaches importance to this plague, but can also help stabilize the people’s heart. Because the most fearful thing during the plague is not the poor treatment, but the the public’s instability, riot and unrest……”


This words could be thought of as high-sounding, and sounded quite reasonable as well. In order to show that the imperial family attaches value to the common populace, a high-ranking individual must be called upon to step forward. Therefore, all the officials appointed by the Emperor Qing were important ministers. Moreover, Yuwen Yin’s identity was far more efficacious compared to the other officials, and can even make Emperor Qing at ease.


What of a plague? An heir? Or even the common people? In Emperor Qing’s standpoint, all of which were not as important as the imperial power in his hands. Selectively ignoring the fact that Yuwen Yin, the apparent heir might meet an accident, Emperor Qing finally said: “What does the crown prince think about this?”


Yuwen Yin narrowed his eyes, then glanced at the Qi Wang, who was harboring unfathomable motives, and at Wei Song, who was worried but never spoke a word, before finally giving a word for word reply: “This son is willing to take on this important task, in order to share the responsibilities and worries of Imperial father.”


All the officials immediately sported varied expressions. Even Qi Wang was stunned, but Emperor Qing was very pleased, and immediately promised the position of Qin Wang and a stream of other rewards. Yuwen Yin curtsied very conscientiously, voicing in a powerful and resonating manner: “This son will definitely make an all-out effort, to live up to Your Majesty’s trust.”


The sun today was very pleasant, but Yuwen Yin chose to tread in the roadside’s shadows after stepping out the royal court and having bid farewell to the courtiers.


That rotten atmosphere in the royal court hall, that old face of Emperor Qing, as well as the faces of Qi Wang and the others flashed through his mind one by one, just thinking about it made him feel disgusted. Moreover, he too, wasn’t innocent at all. Not only was he striving his best to become another Emperor Qing, but was also even more selfish and ruthless than him.


The reason Yuwen Yin accepted the task was not for the country or the common people, but for his own plans. The signs and symptoms of this plague was very similar to the smallpox that everyone had talked about. In any case, Yuwen Yin had once been infected with smallpox when he was very young, so there was no worry of being infected. Moreover, Jiangzhou Prefecture, the place Liu village was located, was actually the most populous and affluent place in the country. If Jiangzhou Prefecture was taken, it would be equivalent to pinching the entire Dayu Dynasty’s economic lifeline. What’s more, controlling the plague, wasn’t as difficult as imagined, but also wasn’t as easy to manage as thought. It was nothing more but isolation, burning the deceased and other iron-blooded means.


He, just like those people in the royal court, was dark and rotten from head to foot.


Yuwen Yin just stood in that place like that, until the little quilt in human form came over to look for him.


Normally, Yuwen Yin would spend time at the royal court for no more than 2 hours at most. But today was somewhat strange, after not seeing a shadow of him by noontime, the little quilt inexplicably felt a bit uneasy. So, he casually put on a white robe before running out to look for him.


Maybe because of having stayed in the shadows for too long, Yuwen Yin immediately felt dizzy and somewhat dazzled by the sunlight when he raised his head. In the midst of his blurry vision, he saw a youth come over from a distance amid the sunlight.


The youth dressed in a pure white robe, had a delicate face, and slender figure. The whole person seemed to glitter and glow in the sunlight.


Yuwen Yin stepped forward subconsciously, with steps quicker than the last, until he was able to tightly grasp the youth’s hand.


So tight as if he would never let go.


The grip was somewhat painful for the little quilt, but didn’t put up a struggle. He only blinked his eyes and showed obvious worry: “What wrong? Did something happen?”


Yuwen Yin shook his head, then tenderly placed a kiss full of love on the youth’s smooth forehead. Only after a while, did he unhurriedly say: “I will set off tomorrow, to go to Jiangzhou Prefecture, to deal with the plague. You will stay.…..”


He had the idea of letting the little quilt stay in Changde Palace, but he was unexpectedly interrupted by the other party before he could finished speaking: “So you were actually worrying about the plague? Rest assured, with me around, there’s definitely nothing for you to worry about!”


Shen Tong raised his little head up with an ‘I’m very powerful’ look. After saying that, he even patted his thin shoulder, “Don’t be afraid, you can lean on my shoulder!”


Yuwen Yin was slightly taken aback, staring at him for quite a while without speaking.


Before encountering the little quilt, Yuwen Yin only knew that everything must be done with his own hands. The thought of relying on someone never crossed his mind, nor did he think that there would be a day when a youth would wholeheartedly give him a shoulder to lean on.


Even if he didn’t need to rely on him, but he could no longer do without the youth’s shoulder and fixed gaze.


Shen Tong finally set out together with Yuwen Yin, accompanied by imperial guards and medical officers. Because of the smoothness of the official road, so no matter how fast the carriage travelled, the driving will still be very steady. No one would’ve thought that Yuwen Yin, whose in the carriage, didn’t look anxious or even worried, but had a gentle and pampering expression while playing a kissing game with the youth in his arms.


This game was not invented by Yuwen Yin, but originated from the little quilt.


Ever since Yuwen Yin turned 15 years of age, the purple cloud on his body grew thicker and thicker. The little quilt accidentally made a new discovery as well, which was, the effect of a kiss is actually better than the inhalation of the purple cloud. Therefore, if Yuwen Yin carelessly burned his mouth or injured his hands, the little quilt would proactively come over and softly say with his tender and adorable voice: “Want a kiss? A kiss will make the pain go away.”


This was naturally what Yuwen Yin had been looking for. That he would even crookedly pretended act pitiful. He wouldn’t even hesitate to harm himself and look for all kinds of excuses in order to ask for a kiss.


Of course, young people are very vigorous, so kissing can easily start a fire. At this moment, the young man’s movements uncontrollably became heavier and heavier, overbearingly entangling the youth’s lips like a hunting beast. The soft little tongue was pulled out, sucked and nibbled. That the youth couldn’t do anything else besides produce a sweet nasal sound.
