Chapter 143: Prince’s little quilt 18 (part 2 of 4)
Having received the permission, Yuwen Yin held his sweetheart’s ankle and massaged with a little bit of upward motion, gently and softly massaging back and forth the other’s lower leg with his large hands. This quickly mobilized the coagulated blood, causing the youth to let out a subdued cat-like lazy hum.
But Yuwen Yin started massaging further up, from the slim calf to the thigh, before stealthily moving further up along the thigh. The little quilt didn’t sense anything amiss at first, until the sensitive skin of his inner thigh was touched, which was followed by a flow of strange heat that rushed through his body. He immediately quivered, and unexpectedly kicked forward without warning.
The strength in this kick wasn’t light. Yuwen Yin placed a hand on his somewhat painful chest, but still felt shamelessly satisfied.
This pain was truly sweet! If you want to kick then just kick! As an old saying goes, ‘Sometimes harsh words or deeds can demonstrate one’s love’ and ‘A kick means deep love’. So, his baby must have deep feelings for him!
It was getting late.
At this moment, Jiuliancheng County looked like a noisy vegetable market from a distance.
The situation had already fallen in utter chaos, that even the officers and soldiers were unable to maintain it. Some of the populace were in front the tightly shut city gate walls in an attempt to leave the county. There were also some, who surrounded the outside of the government office at the county center, and were clamoring for the provincial governor to come out and provide an explanation.
But the provincial governor, Ye Yuanxing, wasn’t in the government office at this time at all, but was standing on top the high city gate tower with a bitter expression. Occasionally gazing into the distance, and sometimes walking to and fro, which was a clear indication of waiting for someone. The subordinate next to him persuaded in a low voice: “My lord, how about taking a rest first? This subordinate here, will keep a lookout, and will immediately notify you as soon as they arrive.”
Unfortunately, not only was Ye Yuanxing unmoved, but he even shouted at his subordinate, as if a nerve had been struck: “The county has already fallen into chaos. So, where do you think this official can still go to?!!”
The fat on his body trembled with every word he spoke, which simultaneously exposed the deep fear and tension he was feeling.
The outbreak really happened too suddenly, as the infected people collapsed in the middle of the street without a bit of warning. The people crowding the street, cried out in fear and scattered in every directions, leaving him completely at a loss as to what to do except for closing the city gates. Not only were the doctors at a loss regarding this disease, but two of them had even been infected, which immediately made everyone panicked. This act of closing the city gate had further stoked up the unrest of the populace, who wanted to leave the county in order to survive.
Ye Yuanxing was still unable to understand how the plague suddenly spread from Liujia Village to Jiuliancheng County. As a matter of fact, he wanted to run away more than this people. But he knows too well about the consequences of running away. He not only has a family, but also concubine and a young son living in the Zhuangzi in the capital. He has also benefited a lot from the joints of Jiuliancheng County, the national transportation hub over the years. If Jiuliancheng County was destroyed during his tenure, even if the royal court wouldn’t hold him accountable, the master behind him will never let him off as well.
That’s the reason why he could only tightly seal the city gate at the present.
This night was definitely the most unbearable night for Ye Yuanxing. As time slowly trickled by, Ye Yuanxing’s became more and more agitated. The night soon passed by, just as the faint light of daybreak appeared, he suddenly heard a patrol guard below coming with a report: “Master Ye, the prince is here! The crown prince’s convoy is about to reach the city gate within an incense stick!”
Ye Yuanxing stood stock still at first, before hastily rubbing his stiff face. He then hurriedly commanded: “Hurry up! Send more people to deal with the mob below, so as not to ruin the official’s important affairs!”
He ordered, while running down in order to welcome the other with his very fat body. The early morning temperature was a bit cold, the wind on top the city walls were also very strong. In spite of this, his forehead was still covered with sweat.
At the same time as this, both Chen Wu and Xiong Wei stopped their horses, then respectfully reported to Yuwen Yin from outside the carriage: “Your Highness, the city gate of Jiuliancheng County is just up ahead.”
Ye Yuanxing had practically mobilized all his troops just to be able to suppress the mob gathered below the city walls. He immediately rushed to the gate of the city wall, just in time to open the city gates and welcome the arrival of Yuwen Yin’s convey.
“This humble servant Ye Yuanxing, greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! May His Royal Highness live a long, long life!”
Yuwen Yin, who had already gotten off the carriage in order to ride a horse, sat high above on horseback, and looked at Ye Yuanxing, who was kneeling on the ground as a courtesy below, “Are you the governor of Jiuliancheng County?”
Ye Yuanxing hastily nodded and responded: “Answering His Highness, this subject is the governor.”
“All rise.” Yuwen Yin raised his horsewhip and said: “Advance into the city.”
With this order, the city gate was about to be slowly closed, but a shout sounded at this moment: “Let me go, I want to get out the city! Why are you seizing us!!”
The mobs of people, who were being suppressed by the government troops, struggled frantically and indignantly. And this shout, like an oil splashing in a frying pan, instantaneously ignited the previous chaotic atmosphere once again.
The mood of the populace unceasingly intensified with the passage of time as well as the increasing number of patients. Growing more uncontrollable with the appearance and heartless suppression of Ye Yuanxing, which finally resulted to extremely violent repercussions. The situation instantly went out of control again. Several people unexpectedly broke through the heavy encirclement of the government troops and rushed out!
The scene instantly fell into chaos.
The little quilt, who loves sleeping in, was originally still having a sweet and pleasant sleep in the carriage. But his 5 senses, which were sharper than the ordinary people, perceived the clamor in the midst of his sleep. Shortly after that, the soft couch underneath him violently shook. The carriage seemed to have been suddenly hit by something, which subsequently startled the horse. The horse raised it’s four hooves and started to run wildly!
Yuwen Yin’s chest tensed up. He swiftly moved forward, so swift that everyone could hardly see it, leaving only afterimages. It wasn’t until his strong and powerful hand had grabbed the reins of the horses, did they once again see that very heroic and firm cyan dressed figure.
But at the same time as when Yuwen Yin got on the horse, the little quilt broke out from the carriage’s window in good condition. Then landed on top the carriage with a light tap of his toes, like moving clouds and flowing water, with a graceful and natural manner. He safely floated above the carriage with the use of his spiritual energy.
A jade-like face, with white clothes and black hair. The hem of the clothes, had spontaneously and gracefully swayed in the air without wind. The morning light coming from behind him, made the youth look as though he exudes a faint golden light, as if a Spirit Immortal had arrived on Earth, causing people to be dazzled and shaken.
The civilians, commoner folks and other rudimentary workers, who had never laid eyes on such a celestial disposition, stopped what they were doing for a moment, with silent but agape mouths. The moment that the startled horse was about to trample upon the chest of an innocent civilian, Yuwen Yin firmly reined the horse to stop, stopping the horse’s hoof in time.
The little quilt slowly descended and landed on the ground. Yuwen Yin sat on the tall horse like that, and shouted in a stern voice while sitting atop a high position: “This Prince is here, whoever dares to make a move will be executed on the spot, and be killed on sight without any mercy!”
This raging voice, which sounded like thunder piercing the ear, was because of the instillation of internal force. Chen Wu and Xiong Wei led the two teams of imperial guards to neatly draw their swords at the same time, causing the violent rioting crowd to completely quiet down.
Yuwen Yin was born with an intimidating pressure of a monarch, which becomes increasingly clear and apparent as he grew up. That overwhelming momentum made the people freeze. Even more so, Ye Yuanxing, who stood rock still in place, without the slightest movement.
