Chapter 71
A pair of large eyes were like black pearls that rippled in the clear spring. They were pure and clear and gave off an endless stream of light. Her unhappy little mouth was slightly drooping down, making her look like a child who was ignorant of the affairs of the world.
Leng Zi looked at the crown prince and asked without knowing what to say, “Crown Prince, I am very obedient today, can you let me follow you?” It was clear that the crown prince’s residence was ice-cold, but it was united. There was a kind of ice-cold warmth that made him unable to restrain his envy.
Shang Wuxin walked towards the bedroom as she asked, “What do you take to follow me?” “You must know that if you want to follow by my side, you are not the young master of the Leng Residence but my guard, just an ordinary subordinate!”
In fact, Shang Wuxin had her own thoughts from the beginning when she accepted Leng Zi, and now that she was in a difficult situation, she was doing it on purpose.
Leng Zi looked at the Crown Prince and saw that he looked more and more beautiful. The Crown Prince was wearing a white robe. Even though he hadn’t been by the crown prince’s side recently, he could still see him from afar. He knew that the crown prince was very worried after being poisoned, but he couldn’t get close to the bedroom, so he let him know that he was weak.
“Ever since I entered the crown prince’s residence, I’ve known who I am!” Leng Zi said in a low voice.
“That’s good!” Shang Wuxin nodded, “Since that’s the case, let’s go get some things from Head Steward Hai to do!” “Even though you may not have fought with others as the young master of the Leng Residence, I hope that you will adapt quickly!”
As soon as he entered the bedroom, Shang Wuxin frowned. It would have been foolish of Shang Wuxin not to know who this person was, but at the same time, Shang Wuxin was left speechless.
However, just as Shang Wuxin entered the bedroom, she was suddenly grabbed by the wrist by the hand. Because she had not expected Han Xuanhao to do such a thing, Shang Wuxin’s wrist was gripped tightly by Han Xuanhao.
Due to Han Xuanhao grabbing onto his wrist, the two of them were extremely close. Shang Wuxian lifted his head and saw Han Xuanhao’s beautiful profile from where she was standing. His features were as if they were crafted by a craftsman, and his straight nose accentuated the man’s attractive side profile even more.
“What’s wrong with you?” Shang Wuxin looked at Han Xuanhao’s gaunt face and asked. At the same time, she moved her wrist to retract it, but she did not expect Han Xuanhao to be so strong. Shang Wuxin struggled, but was unable to free herself, and just as Shang Wuxin was preparing to use her internal energy …
“You’re fine, that’s great!” Han Xuanhao pulled the crown prince into his embrace, his upper-level eyes filled with joy and fear. He was out dealing with some matters, but when he received the news that the crown prince had been poisoned, he rushed back. Although he had received the news that the crown prince was fine, he didn’t feel relieved when he arrived at the crown prince’s mansion. It was only now that he saw the crown prince standing safe and sound by his side that Han Xuanhao finally felt calm.
Han Xuanhao could finally confirm his thoughts as he smelled the Crown Prince’s fragrance. He had been afraid of this crown prince before. After all, this kind of young man had saved his life, and now he was interested in this cold and unordinary crown prince. Later on, he would like this place to have the crown prince, and would worry for the safety of the crown prince. He hadn’t loved anyone, but now he was sure that he was in love with the boy, not with him, not with him, but with him.
Perhaps from the first encounter in the forest where the young man saved his life with benefits, to the fearless assassination of the young man, the following events had only deepened his love for the Crown Prince.
“Bang!” While Han Xuanhao was immersed in his embrace, he was suddenly blown away by a gust of wind from his palm. If he hadn’t been alert and the crown prince hadn’t used his killing move, then Han Xuanhao wouldn’t have been knocked against the wall, but would have been seriously injured.
Shang Wuxin’s eyes looked coldly at Han Xuanhao, who had crashed into the wall. She did not know what kind of madness this man had to actually dare to do this to her. She did want to kill Han Xuanhao, but thinking about how this evil man had helped her again and again, and how she was lacking 3 conditions, she only used some internal energy to get rid of him.
“Do you want to die?” Shang Wuxin looked at Han Xuanhao, who was coughing against the wall, and said unhappily.
Han Xuanhao, who had stopped coughing, looked at the crown prince who stood there without the slightest bit of concern. His bewitching eyes began to glow as he looked at the crown prince as if he was looking at some precious treasure.
“Wuxin is really heartless, aren’t we friends?” “He actually dared to be so ruthless!” Han Xuanhao spoke in an aggrieved manner. His upturned eyes were slightly lowered. The grievance of a beauty was truly heart-wrenching.
It was a pity that Shang Wuxin did not feel any heartache. She only felt that the men beside her were getting stranger by the minute.
“Crown Prince, what happened?” A voice without fear came from outside the sleeping quarters. She had heard it when she came back from the palace and entered the courtyard of the crown prince’s sleeping quarters, but since the crown prince didn’t say anything, she didn’t dare to enter either.
“You may leave!” She did not want anyone other than a few trusted aides to know about Han Xuanhao. If others were to know that the crown prince of Shang Country and the High Lord of the Cold Star Pavilion were together, it would truly cause trouble for herself.
“The Crown Prince is truly loyal to this servant girl!” Han Xuanhao asked with a confused expression. He had seen this servant girl before and knew that the crown prince had two personal maidservants by his side. Although these two maidservants were not beauties, they were extremely capable. Han Xuanhao felt that he had to be wary of these two maidservants. After all, the two ladies had been serving the Crown Prince. What if the Crown Prince decided to take them for himself?
“Do you have a crush on fearlessness?” Shang Wuxin asked. Fear was his own servant girl, so he wouldn’t interfere with her feelings. As long as she was loyal enough to the person she loved and didn’t threaten him, he could tolerate it.
“What?” Han Xuanhao was so scared that he almost jumped up and explained, “I don’t like her!” “What about you?”
Shang Wuxin did not answer, and Han Xuanhao felt bored. Hearing the fearless footsteps leaving, Han Xuanhao said with dissatisfaction, “Is it shameful that I am so handsome?” It hurts me not to do it! ” Han Xuanhao looked at the blank face of the crown prince as he continued to speak helplessly, “I didn’t expect you to return to the capital after being poisoned. Why would you turn a blind eye to such concerns?”
Thinking of Han Xuanhao’s haggard-looking face and his unwonted attire, Shang Wuxin became more convinced.
“I’m fine!” Shang Wuxin gave a rare explanation. Although his words were hard without any temperature, it was enough to make Han Xuanhao happy.
Han Xuanhao was well aware of how cold the crown prince was. Perhaps he truly was as heartless as her name was, but the fact that the crown prince could explain things to him meant that he was already considered a friend of the crown prince. As for his scheme to get the crown prince, Han Xuanhao had plenty of time.
“I heard that the Divine Doctor and the King Qian of the Nangong are staying in the crown prince’s residence?” Han Xuanhao asked sadly. He hadn’t even checked into the crown prince’s residence yet, but someone else had already openly checked in. “Why don’t I stay in the crown prince’s residence as well?”
Han Xuanhao felt that it was best for him to get the month ahead of time. He could also be wary of any slut coming to attack the crown prince.
“Hmph!” Shang Wuxin snorted coldly, looking at Han Xuanhao from head to toe, “Other than Xuanhao, who else would dare to enter my sleeping quarters so openly?” “Besides, with your status, isn’t staying in the crown prince’s residence creating trouble for me?”
Han Xuanhao was speechless when he heard this. He used to think that his status as an assassin was good, and he could do whatever he wanted, but now that he thought about the young man’s identity, Han Xuanhao felt a bit inferior. A assassin and a crown prince, even if the crown prince was truly brought down by him in the future, could the gap in status really be bridged?
“Your Star Pavilion can have clean women?” Shang Wuxin suddenly thought of something and asked. Speaking of the name ‘Star’s Embrace’, Shang Wuxin did not dare to compliment him. Even though she knew the origins of this name, she was still not used to it.
Han Xuanhao looked at the crown prince with a strange expression. Could it be that the crown prince wanted a girl? Although Han Xuanhao himself didn’t have a woman, he was still very clear about the matters between men and women. He thought that the crown prince was already fifteen years old. The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable Han Xuanhao felt.
“The crown prince is only fifteen years old, how can he think of such things?” Han Xuanhao said in a rare serious tone, “There are so many wolves around the crown prince. It’s best not to touch the girl for the time being!” “And how can those girls be worthy of the Crown Prince?”
What and what? Shang Wuxin gritted her teeth and looked at Han Xuanhao dangerously, “You’re not willing?” Or do you need me to offer you three conditions in exchange? Stop it! Just exchange for a condition! “Find a clean woman for me to enter the Third Prince’s manor!”
“For that Shang Chengying?” Han Xuanhao was secretly overjoyed. He was so scared that he even thought that the crown prince wanted a woman! Han Xuan’s good mood instantly cleared up. He thought that he wouldn’t need the crown prince to use a condition, but upon seeing the crown prince’s expression, he shut his mouth. Han Xuanhao had two other conditions anyway.
Seeing that the crown prince was clearly not paying attention to him, Han Xuanhao tidied up his red robe and left the crown prince’s mansion.
