The Captivating Crown Prince

Chapter 90



Tonight’s banquet, Emperor Shang, did not appear, but the crown prince did not appear to be in charge, and the venue for the banquet was still in the palace. However, from Emperor Shang’s actions, many court officials knew that if nothing went wrong, the crown prince would be promoted to the throne in the future.

Because Nangong Qian was returning home, he had to take care of some personal matters early in the morning. Meanwhile, Shang Wuxin was preparing to leave for the palace without fear, while Han Xuanhao, who wanted to follow, was ordered by Shang Wuxin to stay in the mansion.

“Crown Prince, you have to remember that wild flowers aren’t as fragrant as family flowers!” Han Xuanhao, who was standing outside the crown prince’s bedroom, kept saying, “Those ladies from the Shangguan family are all nothing good. They don’t look good either. The crown prince has to stay away from them, otherwise, he won’t be able to escape if he gets entangled!”

Shang Wuxin touched his forehead helplessly, feeling that Han Xuanhao really had the feeling of a woman, as if he was just like that romantic young master who was repeatedly instructed by his wife before he left. Although it was a little irritating, it was not a rare thing to find it tiresome.

“If I didn’t know your gender, I would really think you were my concubine!” It seemed that Han Xuanhao never stopped listening in the crown prince’s mansion, and this man had taken care of many things in the palace like his wife had. Even his own life had been taken care of, from not allowing him to enter the sleeping quarters until now, he had not even taken care of his own food three times a day. Shang Wuxin’s life was slowly seeping into a man named Han Xuanhao.

Han Xuanhao held onto Shang Wuxin’s arm, looking at the crown prince with joy in his heart and did not try to stop him. He remembered that when he got close to the Crown Prince, he would either use his killing move or dodge it. However, when he got closer again and again, the Crown Prince finally stopped rejecting his approach.

“Could it be that Xuanhao isn’t one of the Crown Prince’s people?” Han Xuanhao looked at Shang Wuxin in pain, “Are you planning to end this mess?” “Men in the world sure are lucky. They used to be extremely gentle towards me, tricking me into entering the house. Now, they don’t want me anymore?”

Seeing how Han Xuanhao was getting more and more feigned, Shang Wuxin extended her hand and gave Han Xuanhao a chestnut. “What nonsense are you talking about?” How can your appearance even compare to High Lord Hanxuan’s? These days together, Han Xuanhao was not a friend to Shang Wuxin, but more like a partner, a joy in a dull and boring life.

Han Xuanhao covered his forehead as he smiled. ‘For you, I’m willing to become anything you like …’

“Crown Prince …” As soon as Shang Wuxin walked out of the bedroom, he saw Leng Zi standing there.

Leng Zi looked at the Crown Prince who had not been seen for a long time. Even if the Crown Prince returned safely to his residence, she would not be able to see him, because that Lady Han did not allow her to approach the Crown Prince’s sleeping quarters.

These days, when Leng Zi closed his eyes, he would always remember the day when the crown prince fell into the lake. He kept asking himself, as the crown prince’s guard, why he didn’t save the crown prince.

Shang Wuxin did not feel much when she looked at Leng Zi, or it could have been that she had forgotten this person. However, at this moment, Shang Wuxin realized that Leng Zi seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and her innocent temperament had also changed a lot.

Shang Wuxin knew that Leng Zi was about to leave, but Leng Zi, who was standing there, suddenly tugged on her sleeve.

Shang Wuxin’s face turned cold. Although she was slowly accepting the approach of those around her, such as Han Xuanhao and fearless, there was no such thing as Leng Zi’s position. Pulling Leng Zi’s hand away, Shang Wuxin walked out of the crown prince’s residence without stopping, while Leng Zi looked at the back of the crown prince with reddened eyes.

“Why are you ignoring me?” “I know I was wrong!” Leng Zi muttered to herself like a child who has been wronged.

He was not afraid to walk past Leng Zi to follow the crown prince, but when he passed by Leng Zi, his eyes flashed with disdain. A naive and pitiful young man actually ditched his master to save a disgusting woman in this life and death situation. If it wasn’t for the fact that the crown prince didn’t give any orders and this was General Leng’s younger brother, she would have taken care of this Leng Zi long ago.

When Shang Wuxin left the crown prince’s residence, he saw Leng Yufeng waiting beside the carriage. He wore a black robe, sword-shaped eyebrows, starry eyes, a towering nose bridge, thin lips, and a pair of eyes that seemed to contain a pot of wine.

“General Leng has been here for a long time?” Shang Wuxin asked casually as he got into the carriage.

As for Leng Yufeng, he looked at the carriage with embarrassment, wondering whether he should take the carriage or use his qinggong to go to the palace. He wanted to ride with the crown prince, but the crown prince did not seem to invite him.

Shang Wuxin, who was sitting in the carriage, realized that the carriage was not moving and that Leng Yu was not coming up. She was overjoyed and asked angrily, “Is General Leng enjoying the scenery?” “Why aren’t you getting on the carriage?”

Leng Yufeng was overjoyed and directly jumped into the carriage. Yes, jump! The speed was so fast that those who were standing outside of the carriage could not help but be speechless. Why were these men usually so calm and powerful that no one dared to approach them? Why were they so obedient when they arrived at the crown prince’s side? He was not afraid of the Crown Prince. He felt that if the Crown Prince became the Emperor, there would be someone as considerate as Master Han, and someone as loyal as General Leng. As for the matter of a woman and her husband, he could accept it without fear. Even his own three palaces and six courtyards felt it was only right that he should accept it.

Leng Yufeng walked into the carriage and sat opposite to the Crown Prince, thinking about a lot of things. However, he was unable to say anything and could not help blaming himself for being so stupid. He did not seem like the young lady Han Ying who could amuse the Crown Prince.

“General Leng is going to the border soon, right?” Shang Wuxin asked lazily as he got into the carriage and closed his eyes. This matter was not a secret. After all, Leng Yufeng held the title of a general, and more importantly, the border region needed Leng Yufeng.

Yes, he would be going to the border soon. When he first returned to the capital, he planned to stay for half a month before leaving, but after meeting the crown prince, he did not return to the border for a very long time. He did not want to return to the border, and he was afraid that he would not be able to survive until he saw the crown prince. However, there was no way for him to refuse. It wasn’t because he couldn’t bear to part with the heavy burden on his body, but because he knew that the power in his body was what the Crown Prince needed.

“Hmm …” Leng Yufeng nodded and looked at the crown prince’s face greedily. Then, he asked carefully, “Does the crown prince want that position?” He knew he shouldn’t ask, but he just wanted to know what the Crown Prince was thinking and what he wanted to do for the Crown Prince.

Shang Wuxin opened her eyes, her beautiful eyes were extremely cold. She stared at Leng Yufeng for a long time, and Leng Yufeng looked into the eyes of the crown prince without a trace of fear or evasion.

The corners of Shang Wuxin’s lips curled up as his voice flowed out like a melody, soft as a breeze blowing across a willow tree. “So what if I want it?” “Besides, I’m the crown prince. If I don’t sit on that seat, who will?”

His naked ambition was cut off in front of Leng Yufeng, and he dared to act like this even before Emperor Shang had summoned him. This was truly an outrageous act. However, Leng Yufeng was not surprised in the slightest. This was the Crown Prince, the tyrannical Crown Prince that he liked.

“Yu Feng is willing to go all out and let the Crown Prince get what he wants!” Leng Yuexin suddenly grabbed Shang Wuxin’s hand which was resting on his knee, and swore an oath. His pair of eyes allowed Shang Wuxin to see the loyalty and the feelings of release within clearly.

Shang Wuxin withdrew her hand from stroking Leng Yufeng’s sword-like brows and starry eyes, her tone carefree, “Do you think I don’t have the power to sit on the throne?” This man was always loyal. It was not that his words were unintentional, but the emotions in Leng Yuefeng’s eyes made Shang Wuxin puzzled. She was now a man, the crown prince of a country.

“No, only the Crown Prince can sit in that position!” His hands stroked the corner of his eyes, causing a fiery heat to rise up in Leng Yufeng’s heart. He coveted this kind of feeling, coveting this kind of gentleness.

“So what does Yu Feng want?” Shang Wuxin approached Leng Yufeng, breathing in and out of the carriage.

Leng Yufeng’s eyes dimmed for a moment before his fighting spirit was ignited once again, “Trust! Yu Feng wants the trust of the crown prince!” As long as he trusted him, he could stay with the Crown Prince and protect him forever.

“Trust?” It was rare for her to trust such a thing. Now, it was only a few people around her who could add Han Xuanhao to the mix, but this Leng Yufeng …

“I have given Yu Feng my trust, but I hope that Yu Feng can live up to my trust!” Shang Wuxin said with a smile.

“Yu Feng will not give the crown prince any chance to regret!” Leng Yufeng guaranteed that he was a step closer to the Crown Prince. From General Leng to Leng Yufeng, he had done a lot. But now, Leng Yufeng felt that everything he had done was worth it.

Shang Wuxin gave Leng Yufeng a meaningful smile. Of course he would not regret this, time would prove whether his trust was worth it.

When the two arrived at the palace, Nangong Qian had already arrived and was sitting there. The moment Shang Wuxin entered the palace, he saw Nangong Qian sitting there dressed in purple. The solemn and proud aura made one’s heart palpitate.

Nangong Qian sat in the palace boringly. Because Emperor Shang did not come, he was so rampant in the palace that even the courtiers who came to curry favor with him did not give him a good face. He wanted to see Prince Shang, so he rushed over to the palace early after taking care of the situation, but after waiting for so long without seeing him, Nangong Qian had the urge to fly into a rage. At this moment, the person that Nangong Qian was muttering to walked in from outside the palace.

The young man was tall and straight, with long jade hair and beautiful facial features. His eyes sparkled as he looked at Nangong Qian. His thick red lips gave off an enchanting smile. He held his sword with both hands as he casually stood there. Wearing an expensive white brocade with gold trim on it, he looked even more elegant and refined.
