Chapter 84

The carriage stopped at a lake in the capital. It was not the most beautiful lake in the capital, but it was extremely beautiful under the sunlight.

The carriage stopped by the lake at the last moment. When the carriage stopped, everyone looked at the carriage with their necks stretched. There were many young ladies who wished they could open the carriage and see the elegance of the Crown Prince. He had thought that the Crown Prince would not be enlightened, but now that there was a girl in the Crown Prince’s Palace, it meant that everyone had a chance.

The two driving the carriage were Leng Zi and Dauntless, and beside them was an empty space for them to wait on at any time. However, these three subordinates made everyone feel different. A young master of the General’s Estate served as his subordinate, a woman served as his guard, and a maid served him beautifully.

The first to get off the carriage was the purple-clothed Nangong Qian. The handsome side of his face was carved in an arc of ice and his body was accompanied by a cold arrogance that seemed to transcend the mundane world.

Everyone stood up when they saw the King Qian. Although the King Qian did not have any rights in the State of Shang, in the Kingdom of Nangong, he represented power. There were many times when nations were at odds with each other, but there were also times when they were partners. Who didn’t want to curry favor with someone who had the right to do so?

Before he was shocked by the King Qian’s appearance, he saw the Crown Prince walking down from the carriage. Today, the Crown Prince was wearing a black robe. His lips weren’t touched by beads, his eyebrows weren’t drawn, and his facial features were so exquisite that it seemed like a gift from the heavens.

Nangong Qian looked at Prince Shang who came down first, and his face relaxed a little but he still did not look good. The three of them were sitting in the carriage. Lady Han was too sticking to the crown prince. His heart and stomach were aching from watching her act like this. Therefore, he jumped down the carriage as soon as the carriage arrived, afraid that he would lose his identity.

“Crown Prince!” A coquettish voice came from the carriage, and everyone’s hearts tightened as they realized that this woman was probably the young lady by the crown prince’s side. At this moment, the crown prince was actually bringing along the young woman who had stayed in the brothel for so long, causing many people to feel that she must have been doted upon by the crown prince.

A hand stretched out from the carriage. This hand was slender but extremely fair. It clearly had white joints, but as the sunlight shone on it, it dazzled the eyes of the crowd.

“The Crown Prince won’t help your servant?” The sound of resentment could be heard from the carriage. Shang Wuxin’s entire body trembled, and he stared at the carriage in disgust. Nangong Qian found it funny. Even though he still hated that woman, from the way they were getting along, it seemed that the crown prince and this woman were friends. As for why the crown prince left this woman by his side, Nangong Qian didn’t think much of it because as long as it wasn’t someone he loved, Nangong Qian wouldn’t mind.

“Prince Shang, aren’t you going to attend the beautiful lady’s invitation?” Nangong Qian joked to Prince Shang beside him. I told you to bring the woman with you to the brothel! Nangong Qian was gloating in his heart. This was an emotion that he had never had before, but now seeing Prince Shang clenching his teeth and holding onto that hand, Nangong Qian instantly felt that his previous gloating mood was gone. He only wanted to chop off that woman’s hand and hold the hand of the crown prince in his own.

When the Crown Prince led out the owner of the hand, the crowd let out a “hiss” of surprise. It was not because Nangong Qian and Shang Wuxin were not handsome, but because their identities were there and they were men. Even if they were handsome, they did not have much to marvel at.

The crowd only saw that the girl who was being pulled down by the Crown Prince wore a red robe. Her incongruous attire gave her a demonic aura, but the red veil covering her face was even more mesmerizing. Her long hair that was like a waterfall fell down following the woman’s movements, covering half of her face. There was laziness in her eyes, as well as a fatal charm. Her every move was mixed with an indescribable evil aura, frightening one’s soul.

“The Crown Prince is really nice to me!” Han Xuanhao acted coquettishly towards Shang Wuxin, causing her to stagger and almost stagger. Nangong Qian, who was beside Shang Wuxin, pulled Shang Wuxin away from Han Xuanhao’s side, completely disregarding the dark face of Han Xuanhao.

Han Xuanhao was clearly furious to the point of death, but he couldn’t say anything. Who asked him to have a woman by his side right now? She was not the main wife after all. If she went overboard, there would be many people who would impeach the crown prince. For the sake of the crown prince, Han Xuanhao didn’t even bother pestering her.

“Prince, Lord Qian!” Shang Chenying, dressed in white, stood beneath the boat to welcome the two. Shang Chengying was not bad looking, perhaps it should be said that the children of Emperor Shang were all good-looking, but the best was Shang Wuxin, and the other princes and princesses could not compare either.

Nangong Qian really did not think much of the Third Prince. Perhaps it was because he did not like the princes of Shang Country, but it was a pity that the Crown Prince did not feel comfortable provoking his anger.

Nangong Qian only nodded, but Shang Wuxin still said, “Third Imperial Brother!” As they were speaking, they prepared to board the boat, but one of them was stopped, and the one who was stopped was Han Xuanhao.

“What?” Shang Wuxin looked at the guard in displeasure. No matter what, Han Xuanhao was still one of her own people, and in some ways, Han Xuanhao had disguised himself as a woman to help her. She could despise Han Xuanhao, but she could not tolerate others to dislike him.

“Reporting to the crown prince, this lady isn’t the crown prince’s concubine or his maid, so she can’t board the boat.” The imperial guard glanced at the third prince before continuing, “Furthermore, this woman’s origins are unknown. She cannot enter the boat to disturb the young mistresses!”

Han Xuanhao’s aura had changed so much that he wanted to kill someone. After so many years in the martial world, Han Xuanhao had become accustomed to recklessly killing people. How could a mere guard dare to insult him? Even though he was currently dressed as a woman, the ruthlessness in his bones had never been restrained.

Shang Wuxin came to Han Xuanhao and wrapped her arms around his waist. Even the waist of a man, Han Xuanhao, was soft enough to make him uncomfortable for a moment. Shang Wuxin’s contact caused Han Xuanhao’s killing intent to dissipate in an instant, his entire body bubbling with pink bubbles. The corners of his mouth could not help but chuckle, he felt that the guard who had just insulted him was much better looking, and that killing him would not cause him too much pain.

Nangong Qian looked at Han Xuanhao, who had suddenly become evil, and felt that he was not simple. That aura was too bloody. How could Prince Shang suppress such a person by Prince Shang’s side? Or was Prince Shang planning something?

Shang Wuxin kicked the guard blocking Han Xuanhao in front of her into the ice-cold lake, his speed so fast that no one could react in time.

“You can stop me too!” Shang Wuxin looked at Shang Chenying, then at the perverted gazes directed towards Han Xuanhao from the young masters. “The crown prince’s residence is my residence. No one can bully me except myself!”

Han Xuanhao was laughing so hard that his head was lowered and his smile was trembling. He really wanted to hug the crown prince and kiss him a few times. He had become the crown prince’s man. Well, he was really good. He dressed like a man and dressed like a woman in return. How long would it take for him to truly become the crown prince?

Nangong Qian saw Prince Shang’s actions and understood that Prince Shang was an extremely protective person. It was obvious that the carriage disdained this woman, but outsiders would not allow it. He lowered his head and whispered in Prince Shang’s ear, “This king has also entered the crown prince’s residence, I wonder if he is the crown prince’s person?”

Not only did Shang Wuxin hear those words, even Han Xuanhao heard them. Immediately, he became vigilant. He knew how charming the Crown Prince was, so even though he knew that the Crown Prince was still in deep mud, it was already too late for him to escape.

“I don’t know if I can make such a big deal out of the Crown Prince’s Palace!” Shang Wuxin said carelessly, thinking that Nangong Qian had fallen ill again. After all, Nangong Qian had not been sick twice these days, so Shang Wuxin had gotten used to it.

Nangong Qian actually felt a bit impulsive when he said this, but when he said it, he felt that it was only natural. He thought, this young man is really the most beautiful poison in the world.

“I can look …” Nangong Qian’s voice was very soft. Not only did Shang Wuxin not hear him, even Nangong Qian himself did not hear him.

Seeing the guard swimming in the lake, Shang Wuxin glanced at Kong’er, “Go, I do not wish for the person who insulted your master to be alive!” It was an order as well as a threat. It was more of a disregard for life.

Kong’er never thought that the crown prince would actually let her do such a thing. Normally, the crown prince would allow her to do such a thing without fear or fear, but she couldn’t dodge. As long as she dodged, not only would she lose face for the crown prince, she would also lose her life.

Kong’er followed the crown prince’s line of sight and arrived by the lake. Just as the guard was about to climb onto the shore, he grabbed onto the guard’s hair and pushed his head into the water.

Such an action caused some people to be afraid and others to feel disdain. However, they were so smart that no one dared to say anything in front of the crown prince.

“I couldn’t tell that the Crown Prince’s servant girl has some skill!” Han Xuanhao said with a confused expression. How could a woman easily press an adult male or guard into the water if she didn’t have the time. However, this woman usually did not disguise herself well.

“Third Prince’s men?” Nangong Qian also asked. He knew that he shouldn’t ask too much about the crown prince, but he couldn’t control himself.

“Not necessarily!” Shang Wuxin looked at the unreadable light in Shang’s eyes, and the occasional glance that shifted from Shang’s body, his mind raced.
