The Emperor Xiao San's Little Concubine

Chapter 45: The Return of Prince Xiao San (Part 2)

After the two of them won the fight, they rushed inside the gate. Prince Xiao San picked up the little concubine who was holding the stab wound.

"Are you still able to survive the little concubine?" the prince was very worried.

"Just calm. I can still hold on." said the little concubine while holding her wound.

Young healer Chen Yi was behind prince Xiao San and little concubine Xixi. He was placed behind them, as he was carrying Xiao Jiwu. Both wanted to protect their son. They were aware that the state of the palace had changed and they had to be more vigilant with the enemy who was about to attack them all of a sudden.

"Chen Yi, stay behind us. Don't let your guard down." Prince Xiao San's strict order.

The two were at the very front leading the remaining troops into the palace. When they managed to enter the palace courtyard, it turned out that there was already waiting for Ye Xiwu's daughter with her cousins Xiao Fang and Xiao Feng with the sword in their right hand. Their faces looked very sly and arrogant.

"Where is Emperor Xiao Ge?" asked prince Xiao San with a worried face.

"Haha.. Apparently you dare to come back here prince." said princess Ye Xiwu.

"I am entitled to this palace. I am the crown prince. Tell me where is Emperor Xiao Ge?" asked prince Xiao San loudly.

"Servants bring the emperor here." Xiao Fang ordered.

Shortly after, a palace maid came along carrying a signboard and gave it to Xiao Fang.

"It's your father. Take it." Xiao Fang said loudly while smiling contemptuously.

It turned out that on the nameplate was written the name of the emperor Xiao Ge. They said that a year ago the emperor Xiao Ge had died and gave a will that the throne would fall into the hands of Xiao Fang as his son's successor. Prince Xiao San did not believe their words, but they gave the will written by emperor Xiao Ge.. Prince Xiao San could not say anything more. Now the throne had fallen to Xiao Fang and he was marrying Ye Xiwu's daughter as his empress.

"You are all traitors. I know all of this is manipulation of all of you." cried prince Xiao San with a face full of anger.

"Guard, get them all. They are traitors. Put it into the dungeon of grief." Xiao Fang's firm order.

The palace guards began to surround them, now they were trapped surrounded by the palace troops. Prince Xiao San prepared to survive the attack. The little concubine was always beside him. Although the wound was getting worse, the little concubine still survived to protect prince Xiao San.

"We will not let you rule over the Xiao kingdom" prince Xiao San said as he held the sword firmly.

"Strike.." cried princess Ye Xiwu ordered the palace troops.

The entire palace army attacked prince Xiao San and the little concubine and her army. They fought fiercely. Their swords clashed against each other. Their swords were thirsty with blood. Each sword wanted to finish off everyone in front of them. Xiao Fang tried to attack the prince Xiao San while Xiao Feng tried to attack the little concubine Xixi. They fought fiercely. Their faces were full of anger and ambition to kill their respective enemies.

Due to the cry of the little concubine, prince Xiao San was able to dodge and counterattack. Finally the sword of prince Xiao San managed to hit Xiao Fang's hand until it was torn. They continue to fight non-stop. Even though their bodies were already getting weaker, they would not stop or budge until one of them finally died.

Young healer Chen Yi was trying to find a safe place to protect Xiao Jiwu. The young healer continued to observe their fight. The young physician was very worried about the state of prince Xiao San and little concubine Xixi. The young healer who was too focused on the fight, did not realize that behind him was already Ye Xiwu's daughter by pointing the sword at the young healer's neck. The young healer was now under the control of Ye Xiwu's daughter.

"You stop it." cried Ye Xiwu's daughter as she pointed a sword at the young healer's neck.

"If you don't give up, don't blame me if your son will meet his grandfather." Ye Xiwu's daughter tried to threaten.

Hearing the threat from Ye Xiwu's daughter, finally prince Xiao San and little concubine Xixi released her sword and surrendered. Princess Ye Xiwu ordered the palace guards to take them to the dungeon in the grief prison. The little concubine with the wounds getting worse, still persisted to carry her son. Although in the end he had to sacrifice his life, he was willing. If all of this could save her husband and son.

"Road faster." shouted one of the palace troops while pushing his already weak little concubine.

"Don't touch my wife" said the prince, hitting the palace.

One of the palace troops did not accept the attitude of the prince, he tried to hit the prince but was confronted by his little concubine to make a small concubine hit and bleed.

"I beg you to calm down" said the little concubine, trying to calm down.

Seeing her crying son and the little concubine getting hurt, the prince tried to hold back his anger. They kept walking and arrived at the prison of grief. They were kept in a narrow and dirty room. There is no air vent. In that prison there was only straw as their bed. The narrow prison space can only accommodate two people, but now the room is occupied by four people who make the room increasingly crowded.

"What should we do now prince?" chen Yi asked in great fear

"Now check first the state of the little concubine. Make sure you can stop the bleeding in the wound of a small concubine. Let me think of the next plan." said prince Xiao San calmly.

The prince hugged his son and provided comfort in order to sleep soundly. The young healer Chen Yi checked the state of the little concubine and tried to stop the bleeding on her wound. With a slightly trembling body, Chen Yi tried to calm down in order to treat the little concubine.

"Calm down. I'm not gonna let you die. You're my little brother. I will protect you." said the little concubine rubbing her head while enduring the pain.

The young healer cried like a child while bandaging the wound of a small concubine. After all he only had a small concubine as his older brother and teacher. He did not want to lose his family. The little concubine tried to calm him down. He smiled slightly and held her hand to give her confidence.

"Are you okay, little concubine?" the prince tried to pretend to be calm.
