The Captivating Crown Prince

Chapter 176



Huan Mo Che sat on a chair in the study, and looked at Shang Wuxin who was sitting there, his eyes filled with sadness.

On the other hand, Leng Yufeng was extremely happy. He was always at the border. If he wanted to come back and see Shang Wuxin, it would always be troublesome. Although he could leave the border, he did not have many twists and turns that could be used to defend Shang. Otherwise, he would not even be able to find a reason to approach Shang.

Shang nodded, there was nothing to hide. This attack on the Qing Dynasty was originally on his own initiative, and he had to take responsibility for it. As the future king of a country’s crown prince, if he was found out as a woman without a certain level of achievements, it would be impossible for him to escape death. She already had Han Xuanhao by her side. She would never let Han Xuanhao stay by her side while disguising himself as a woman. One day, she would need to dress as a woman and sit on a dragon throne.

“This time, I must go to the border!” After all, time was of the essence, so there were many things that needed to be redeployed to the capital. Furthermore, she would have to make a trip to the Nangong Country herself, since it was not a small matter for so many soldiers to travel through the Nangong Country. At the very least, she had to stabilize Nangong Qian’s position in order to have this kind of power. In fact, there was not only one road, but other roads could not be called roads. Not only was the road narrow and time-consuming, but it was also a very roundabout way. Most importantly, if the army were to attack Qing Guo from the other side, it would have no effect at all. Thus, Shang’s initial plan did not allow the army to travel through those places that could not be called roads.

“Then I …” Hearing that, Han Xuanhao felt wronged. He immediately sat down beside Shang Wuxin, ignoring the two’s hungry gazes in the study room. “How boring it is for me to be alone in the capital. How about I accompany you? My martial arts skills are good enough to protect you and protect you from the enemy!”

“Nonsense!” Shang Wuxin wanted to slap Han Xuan Hao, but he was reluctant to do so, so he explained, “You are the High Lord of Cold Star Pavilion, even though there are very few people who have seen your face, what will happen to your Ice Star Pavilion once you enter the army camp? What will happen to me?”

Han Xuanhao opened his mouth wanting to explain something, but then suddenly sat down in bitterness, not knowing what to say. At this moment, Shang Wuxin had a lot of things to clear up, so he did not pay much attention to what was going on with Han Xuanhao.

“Yu Feng, tomorrow you will go back to the border and order the soldiers. The food is ready!” If it was something that happened on the battlefield, then Shang Wuxin would be extremely worried about Leng Yufeng. Leng Yufeng was born to be a high-ranking officer, and was born to lead troops.

“Then, what about you?” After all, he was prepared to go to the border with Shang Wuxin to take care of him. He did not know why, but Leng Yufeng was always worried about Shang Wuxin. He was clearly a strong young man, but he had an unrelenting determination.

Shang Wuxin frowned, “The best way to attack Qing Guo this time is through the path to Nangong Kingdom. Since Nangong Lian is in my hands, this bargaining chip is the best.” “However, I must make a trip over personally. Such a big matter …”

This time, the war was very important. After all, this war involved Shang’s carelessness, so towards Shang’s carelessness, Huanmo Che would agree. Moreover, if Nangong Qian was not the one stepping onto the throne, then there would be a lot of trouble for the future of the State of Shang.

However, when Han Xuanhao heard that Shang didn’t intend to go to Nangong Country to see Nangong Qian, his expression became even worse. Since Nangong Qian and Shang didn’t intend to implicate Han Xuanhao, he was prepared to accept. However, at this moment, Han Xuanhao was a bit jealous. If Shang decided to become the emperor in the future, what would he do?

“This court will have to trouble Mo Che a lot from now on!” Shang Wuxin solemnly looked at Huanmo Che, “This Shang Guo is my backing, I know of your ability, Mo Che, I hope you can defend this homeland for me!” Shang was not an order nor was he an order. Instead, he was asking for the help of such a man. There was a father who cared for him in this place, a subordinate that he currently had, and a man that he cared for. This Sang Nation could not afford to be messed with, nor could it be thrown away.

Seeing such a serious Shang Wuxin, Huan Mo Che immediately stood up, his heart was a little sad. It was only because Shang Wuxin’s heart was not as polite as his, and her orders to Leng Yufeng were so natural. He would rather the Crown Prince order him around, but not beg him like this.

“Thoughtless, don’t worry. If I don’t die, I’ll guard the imperial court for you!” Huanmo Che spoke seriously, his peach blossom eyes were filled with determination. This kind of expression made Shang Wuxin a little absent-minded, but after an instant, he no longer wanted to look at that pair of eyes.

Shang Xin stood up and patted Huan Mo Che’s shoulder, this was a form of trust, and also a form of request. Huan Mo Che understood all of this, so he only nodded with a smile. In fact, he did not tell Shang Wu Xin that no matter what she wanted him to do, he would not complain.

“I’m leaving tomorrow morning, let’s have dinner tonight!” Leng Yufeng suggested, although they would come back to the Crown Prince’s Palace every night to eat as long as they were in the capital, all they wanted was to eat with Shang unintentionally.

Shang was not in the mood to ponder about it, it was likely that after today, he would need a period of time to recover from his leisure.

“Why don’t we go out and eat tonight?” The cooks at the Crown Prince’s Palace were the best, and the food they cooked was comparable to the chefs at the imperial palace. But no matter how tasty the food was, it would always be less refreshing.

The three of them were thinking about where to go for dinner, but Shang Wuxin continued, “Why don’t we go to the Star Pavilion?” In Shang’s eyes, it was not a brothel, and there was nothing taboo about it.

“No way!” The three of them immediately retorted.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve had a meal in the mansion. The food outside is still not as delicious as the food cooked by the chefs in the mansion!” Han Xuanhao looked at the two of them innocently. Even though the Star Pavilion was his power, he had no intention of luring Shang into it.

“I’m going back to the border tomorrow. I should eat and rest early tonight!” Leng Yufeng lowered his head, feeling a little awkward with these words, but it was still better than letting Shang not go to the brothel and be coveted by the women.

“I’m not doing it on purpose, the situation outside is not safe, it’s better to eat at the mansion!”

Shang didn’t want to see them lie, so he headed straight for the main hall.

At this moment, Hou Hou was being held in a very messy cell. After half a day, Qi Hou’s body was already dirty and messy. However, even now, no one had brought him a bowl of rice or a cup of water. Qi Hou kept comforting himself that as long as there was still hope, he would still have hope.

When Qi Hou heard the jailer’s voice, he became even more clear. “But the orders from the higher-ups are that Qi Hou cannot be tested!”

“Don’t worry, I’m just talking to Qi Hou!” After saying that, for some reason, the head of the prison let a middle-aged man in.

Excitement flashed across the Qi Hou’s eyes when he saw this person, “Shangguan Family!” Why are you here? ” In his eyes, even his son and woman did not have the trust of a steward. This time, he had asked the steward to bring a military talisman to mobilize the soldiers so that he could escape this calamity.

The steward suddenly knelt down in front of Qi Hou’s cell. The soldier token is missing! ”

This news caused Qi Hou to suddenly fall to the ground. The bargaining chip he was so proud of had disappeared. How could this happen? Qi Hou looked at the steward and shook his head. No, it wasn’t the steward! But he had hidden the talisman so deeply. Would he know it? How was he going to get out?

“Who is it?” Qi Hou asked, but the butler could not answer him.

“Master Hou, what should we do?” The steward had followed the Qi Hou for so many years that he finally realized how terrifying it was to be without the military medallion.

Just when the two of them were both at a loss for words, the head of the prison came over and took the housekeeper out. As Qi Hou laid on the grass, his entire body was cold.

Qi Hou knew that the Duke of Qing would not do anything for him. Just when he felt that he was doomed to die, he saw a man standing outside his cell. Qi Hou looked in shock and saw that it was his room.

Seeing his wife, whom he had married for decades, standing outside the cell with a box in her hand, Marquis Qi realized that he was the only one who cared the most about him without even looking at her. Qi Hou sat at the cell railing and asked, “Why are you here?”

Madam Qi took out all the dishes she had prepared from the meal box. As usual, she was understanding and kind, “I know that Master Hou definitely won’t be able to eat well here, so I personally made a few dishes and brought the Head of the Guards here to deliver some food to Master Hou!”

At this moment, Qi Hou remembered that his main wife had good culinary skills. When they were married, she used to cook for him often, but when he was tired of her cooking, he turned her down. Now it seemed that Qi Hou felt somewhat guilty.

“Sorry for the trouble!” Qi Hou took the bowl and chopsticks from his wife. Even though he knew that he would really lose his life this time, he didn’t want to give up until the very last moment. Madam Qi listened attentively to the words that Qi Hou had said for the first time in many years, but she was not the least bit moved.

Halfway through his meal, Qi Hou suddenly asked, “Is everything alright?” No matter what happened to him, it should not involve the children and concubines of the mansion.

“This is bad!” Madam Qi suddenly raised her head and smiled at Qi Hou, “All of the Qi Hou’s people are dead. Even the steward who just reported the news to Master Hou was not spared!”

“What did you say?” Qi Hou threw the bowl and chopsticks away. Suddenly, Qi Hou felt an excruciating pain in his chest. He wanted to grab Madam Qi’s neck, but the cell blocked his steps and forced him to glare at the woman he had married for so many years.

“Master Hou, is it painful? Did he feel like he was going to die soon! But it doesn’t matter, as long as you’re dead, you can go down and apologize to my son for his sins! ” “I was the one who poisoned all those people at Qi Hou. My greatest regret in life is that I married you!”

As she spoke, Madam Qi took out a packet of poison from her bosom and consumed it. Then, she too, fell into the dirty cell …
