The Captivating Crown Prince
chapter-137

Chapter 137

It was still snowing heavily when Nangong Qian and his men came to Shang State. However, when they returned, the ice and snow had started to melt. Among their group, there were many more subordinates of the crown prince.

Nangong Qian’s subordinates could clearly feel that the prince’s mood was anxious when he came, but when he returned, he seemed to be very carefree. They didn’t know if it was because they had been mistaken, but they felt that the prince was in a very good mood these days. Even if someone committed a small mistake, the prince would not reprimand them.

Nangong Qian and Shang were not in the mood. As for Nangong Lian, because she was very close with Lin Jia Er, she didn’t want to go back, and Nangong Qian also didn’t want to have a little sister on the way back, so he let her play with him. At that time, Nangong Lian was still preparing to rub Nangong Qian’s forehead thinking that her big brother must have a fever.

Shang Bin looked at Nangong Qian strangely, he was familiar with the carriage. After all, it was very normal for Nangong Qian to sit in a carriage for so many times, but from what she could remember, the carriage’s secret compartment did not contain dried fruits, so when did he put them in?

Nangong Qian seemed to have seen through Prince Shang’s doubt. He placed the dried fruit on a plate and explained, “I heard from Han Xuanhao that you like to eat some dried fruits and snacks in the carriage, so I had my servant buy some!” Although he felt that it was rare for a man to eat these sour and sweet things, it was natural for Prince Shang to eat them.

Shang Wuxin took the dried fruit and put it into her mouth. As expected, she liked the taste of the fruit. Although her usual demeanor and poise had played such a good role for a young man, these little hobbies were still filled with the interest of a woman. Han Xuanhao was indeed meticulous, and since Han Xuanhao knew of his woman’s identity, Shang Wuxin was less worried about him in front of Han Xuanhao.

“Xuan Hao? Nangong and Xuan Hao’s relationship is not bad? ” After all, a few days ago, someone was still whispering bad things about Nangong Qian to him. Why did the two of them seem to be on the same side in the blink of an eye?

Nangong Qian looked at Prince Shang’s questioning look and wanted to say that he had a good relationship with that sissy Han Xuan Hao. It would be good if he didn’t beat him up, but Nangong Qian wasn’t someone who liked to speak ill of others. Furthermore, Han Xuan Hao and Prince Shang had a relationship that day, so if he were to slander Han Xuan Hao, Prince Shang would probably feel disgusted with him.

“Mn, my relationship with Xuan Hao is not bad!” Nangong Qian suppressed the disgust in his heart and said.

Even though Shang Bin was surprised, he did not ask about it. He looked outside the carriage window and discovered that they were not heading back to the country of Nangong. Even though he was suspicious and vigilant, he did not wait for Nangong’s humble arrangements.

Nangong Qian was happy that Prince Shang didn’t ask anything. After all, people like them were extremely vigilant. Now that he had changed his route, it was too abrupt. However, he wanted to give Crown Prince Shang a surprise. However, seeing Prince Shang today was the greatest surprise. This meant that in the heart of Prince Shang, he was a little trustworthy. However, he would not ask about it. It was a pity that Prince Shang did not give him this opportunity.

Since they did not take the main road but the small road, the road was not very comfortable. At this time, Shang Bin, Nangong Qian and co. passed by a town, which was also where they would stay tonight. They were all disguised as merchants this time, going out to do business. With so many of them, no one would doubt them.

“Mistress!” Young Master Nangong! ” Shang didn’t have any fear when he came out this time. He had planned to bring the fearless and fearless along, but since he didn’t have the heart to worry about the training grounds, he left the fearless behind in the capital city with General Jiang and two hundred soldiers of the Snow Sang Army. However, a portion of them disguised as merchants followed behind him, while another portion disguised as commoners to protect the crown prince from any danger.

Shang Wuxin was preparing to sleep for a while but was woken up by fearless noises. Nangong Qian was dissatisfied with the sound of Prince Shang disturbing his rest, but when he thought about the fact that this person was the Crown Prince’s trusted servant girl, he asked, “What’s the matter?”

She was not afraid of how the voice of the Prince of Qian could be so cold. Even though she felt a chill on her back when she was outside the carriage, she still said respectfully, “There’s a pretty good inn here. Your servant wants to ask the crown prince if he needs to come down for a night’s rest.”

Nangong Qian looked at Prince Shang, who had clearly woken up, and said, “Go and book a room!” As for when they would get off the carriage, it all depended on Prince Shang. Anyway, he was happy to sit here with Prince Shang.

At the same time, from far away, he had returned to the side of the carriage. Seeing fearless as he entered the inn, a trace of astonishment flashed across his eyes. He really didn’t know when his own prince would actually act like this … So shameless.

Then, he saw Wu Dai standing outside the carriage and said, “Mistress, all the rooms in the inn are full. The subordinates can live in the backyard of the inn, but there’s only one room left. Do you need to continue walking?”

When Nangong Qian heard the fearless voice, a look of satisfaction flashed across her phoenix eyes. Then, she looked at Prince Shang who was lying on the ground with his eyes wide open, “I’ve been sleeping in the wilderness for the past few days, why don’t I rest here for a night and take a bath? If you don’t mind, then I can just sleep in the backyard with my subordinates!”

Ever since he heard that they could share a room with the crown prince, Nangong Qian was jealous and had been planning to. How could he let go of such a good opportunity and think of sharing a room with the crown prince tonight? Nangong Qian’s body felt a little hot.

Shang Bin was prepared to get up, but Nangong Qian quickly helped him up. Perhaps he was used to it, or perhaps Nangong Qian’s actions were not that ambiguous. Shang Bin did not reject him but instead lifted the curtain of the carriage to look outside.

“Let’s go to the inn tonight!” Then, he looked at the expressionless Nangong Qian who had his ears perked up, “Nangong, please stay with me too. If I chase Nangong away, I don’t know if Nangong’s subordinates will give me trouble!”

Nangong Qian did his best to control his emotions so that he did not reveal a smile. He said indifferently, “Then it’s decided!”

In these few days, if he hadn’t seen her clearly, he wouldn’t be fit to stay by her side. He once thought that the prince wouldn’t like any woman in his life, and indeed, the prince didn’t like any woman but fell in love with a man, and he also loved her quite dearly. However, he later discovered that only by Prince Shang’s side could one live like a human being, and according to his position and intelligence, no other woman was worthy of Prince Shang. What made him even more terrifying was that he did not know if he had gotten used to it or not, but every time he saw Prince Shang and the Prince together, he felt that they were a match made in heaven.

Nangong Qian and Shang were not in the mood to enter an inn. The waiter quickly served their meals. Although it was not very refined, it was clean and simple. The two of them were not people who could not bear hardships, so they sat down at the table to eat.

One must know that in the Crown Prince’s Palace, although the taste of the Crown Prince was very tricky, the cooks of the Crown Prince’s Palace would always cook dishes well, but it was not convenient outside. Nangong Qian directly picked up a piece of meat and placed it into Crown Prince Shang’s bowl.

Shang Wuxin lowered his head to look at the bowl of meat in disgust, continuing to eat his vegetarian meal. The piece of meat in the bowl did not move at all.

Nangong Qian felt that Prince Shang was either the crown prince of a country or a child, and was even a child that he himself pitied so much that he wanted to hold in his arms. He endured his best temper and said, “Eating some meat in the winter is a bit warm, moreover, I’m too thin and frail. Of course, he was still thinking that if Prince Shang was so thin and weak, would he be able to bear up with him in bed? Last time, Han Xuanhao, that sissy, couldn’t even get the crown prince out of bed, so why was he stronger than Han Xuanhao?

Shang Wuxin naturally did not know what Nangong Qian was thinking, if not he would definitely place the food on Nangong Qian’s head.

As he looked at the meat in the bowl and heard Nangong Qian’s educating tone, Shang Gong obviously understood his good intentions, so he endured the discomfort in his heart and ate the meat in the bowl. With a slight frown, he appeared to be a girl.

Nangong Qian also knew that this was not something that could be done overnight so he did not force himself to place some of the other dishes into Prince Shang’s bowl. It was obvious that he was not familiar with these things, but this kind of unfamiliarity made Shang feel more satisfied.

After their meal, the two prepared to take a bath. At this time, Shang Xin walked in fearlessly. He heaved a sigh of relief and said, “I still have some matters to take care of. Nangong, let’s take a bath first!” After saying that, he didn’t give Nangong Qian the chance to reject him and fearlessly left the inn.

“Crown Prince, there’s a hot spring deep in the forest at the back of the mountain!” She was fearless. Of course, she knew that the crown prince could not bathe together with Prince Qian. Therefore, she had gone to look for this matter without eating. After all, she was very clear about the crown prince’s obsession with cleanliness.

When Shang Tong returned to the inn after his bath, he saw Nangong Qian sitting at the table looking at a paper roll. He was dressed in a thin robe with a cold and cruel face and a gaze as sharp as a falcon’s, causing fear in the hearts of the people. When he saw Prince Shang enter the room, he put down the paper, and his eyes softened.

“Hmm?” Nangong Qian looked at the obviously showered Prince Shang and felt a little unhappy, “Have you been bathed in these before?” He hadn’t seen an unintentional body before. He was originally a bit perverted tonight, so why was he so dead before he even started.

“Yes, when I went out to settle some matters, I knew that there was a hot spring at the back of the mountain I took a bath for!” The bed in the inn was not big to begin with, so Shang Wuxin purposely laid himself out on the bed and said to Nangong Qian, “I’ll have to trouble you to sleep on Nangong’s bed tonight!”

At this moment, Nangong Qian felt that he was one of the most miserable people in the world, but could he force himself to go to bed? Of course not. Thus, Nangong Qian walked over to the soft couch, lifted it up, and brought it close to the bed. Only then did he sleep contentedly.

As he listened to Prince Shang’s shallow breathing and smelled the faint fragrance on his body, Nangong Qian fell asleep. However, he dreamt of a very intimate dream in which Prince Shang was being ruthlessly bullied under him …

When morning arrived, Shang Chen and Nangong Qian woke up at the same time. Shang Tong sat up and put on his outer robe, looking at Nangong Qian who was lying on the bed. After all, the soft couch was beside the bed, and if Nangong Qian did not leave, he would not be able to get off the bed.

Of course, he knew that he had to get out of bed. The wetness of his pants and the fact that his thin pants could not cover them made Nangong Qian a little embarrassed. Seeing Prince Shang sitting on the bed, already dressed, looking at him with a puzzled expression, Nangong Qian clenched his teeth and got up.

Although Nangong Qian tried his best to cover it up, Shang didn’t notice the awkwardness beneath Nangong Qian’s body. Although Nangong Qian tried his best to cover it up, Shang didn’t notice the awkwardness under Nangong Qian’s foot. After saying that, Shang became even more embarrassed.

Nangong Qian was also stunned by Prince Shang’s words, following that: “Yes, it’s normal, it’s normal!”

Afterwards, the two of them had breakfast in an awkward atmosphere before leaving the inn. Only after they got on the carriage did the atmosphere between the two of them lighten a little.
