The Captivating Crown Prince

Chapter 152
Rumors were flying all over the capital today, and the entire place was bustling with noise and excitement.
On the walls of the capital, there was this year’s Imperial Examinations system. It was unknown how many students and students were kowtowing under the notice, constantly thanking the crown prince who they believed in as their god. This matter had further solidified the crown prince’s unshakeable position among the common people.
Today, outside the crown prince’s residence, there were students who would occasionally come to the mansion dressed in ordinary attire. They would just stand there and take a glance at the crown prince, who did not look down on them, and at the crown prince, who gave them the chance to do so.
After Shang did not know about this, he directly set up a large tea house outside the crown prince’s residence, where those who came from the countryside to take the Imperial examinations could have a place to stay and drink some tea. He also saved some money for these poor scholars, who eventually became the crown prince’s loyal subordinates in the imperial court.At the same time, the two of them left together. However, just as the two of them got into the carriage and were about to leave, they saw the people standing outside the crown prince’s mansion. Their eyes were filled with hope and worship, just like the morning sun.
“Congratulations to the Crown Prince, the people who have gained control of the world!” Huan Mo Che looked at the students outside with tears in his eyes as he looked at their carriage. In his heart, he was happy for the crown prince, and in his heart, he admired the method he used to restrain his heart.
After listening to the words of Huan Mo Che, she did not deny or deny it. Of course, her little tricks could not be hidden from Huan Mo Che, and according to her knowledge, there were many things in the world that required Huan Mo Che’s help, otherwise, her reputation would not have gotten so big. It should be known that the influence of a scholar was not to be underestimated, and this was also the reason why Huan Mo Che created the world’s first floor.
“Ah, I wonder if Mo Che is willing to accompany me to continue gaining the hearts of the people under the heavens?” Shang Wuxin asked with a dangerous look in his eyes, staring intently at Huan Mo Che’s peach blossom eyes. The temperature of the entire carriage instantly dropped. If Huan Mo Che had even the slightest bit of dissatisfaction with the answer, then his end would not be good.
Huan Mo Che looked at the now extremely dangerous crown prince and suddenly laughed, laughing gently and doting. In his deep peach blossom eyes, it seemed as if tens of thousands of stars had been lost, shining even brighter than diamonds. His voice carried a tantalizing firmness, “This is Mo Che’s honor!”
It was obviously just an annoying Peach Blossom Eye, but Shang Wuxin felt something was different. His heart was different. Shang did not intend to cover her beautiful eyes with his hands, but reason prevailed in the end.
Seeing the change in the crown prince’s expression, Huan Mo Che felt that it was a bit of a pity. Just a moment ago, he felt that the crown prince seemed to treat him differently, but in just a moment, he had become an estranged crown prince. However, he firmly said in his heart, there’s no rush, he will definitely throw a big net to ruthlessly weave the crown prince’s heart.Shang no longer had the heart to restrain himself as he slowly walked out of the carriage, Huan Mo Che following closely behind. When the two of them got out of the carriage, the students sitting in the tea house and the ones in the Crown Prince’s Palace stared at the crown prince and the Minister of the Left with wide eyes.
The crowd only saw the crown prince getting off the carriage. He was dressed like snow, his hair was as black as ink, his body was long and beautiful, and his calm and gentle black pupils revealed a faint smile.
The Minister of the Left was standing beside the Crown Prince, dressed in a blue brocade robe. His eyebrows were like willow leaves, and his face was like white jade. He had the cultivation of a noble, but also had a light and melancholy temperament.
“Crown Prince, Lord Left Premier!” The students recovered from the shock of their appearance and temperament as they saluted.
Shang carelessly took a look at these students and realized that there were a few who were not bad. They looked surprised but did not rush or flatter him when they saw him and Huan Mo Che. They had the nobility of a scholar but had their own style.
“What’s so uncomfortable about coming to the capital for the first time?” “The system of examination that the Crown Prince has proposed is for everyone. I hope everyone will work hard and not disappoint the Crown Prince!” Although the expression on the crown prince’s face was gentle, he did not say a single word. He could only say it himself, and he did not wish for more people to be attracted to the crown prince either.
When the crowd heard this, they felt grateful towards the Crown Prince. Their words were filled with yearning for the Imperial Examinations. Perhaps they had once resented the high and mighty court officials, but only now did they realize that not everyone was a greedy official who treated human life as grass. There was also a gentle and talented person like the Minister of the Left, as well as a kind person like the Crown Prince who cared for the people.
Shang was not in the mood to get into the carriage. Before he got into the carriage, he instructed everyone, “Work hard!” Even though it was just a few simple words, the students were still moved by it. They looked at it with amazement. Even after saying so much, he could not match up to the indifferent attitude of the crown prince.
The two of them got on the horse carriage and were about to go to court when they saw Bai Shaolin blocking the carriage with an anxious voice, “Crown Prince, the questions for this Imperial Examinations have been leaked. Outside, people have begun selling the questions for this Imperial Examinations!”
At the same time, a thick smile and interest in their prey flashed across both of their eyes.
“I got it, continue to scout, but don’t alert the snake!” Because of his injuries these few days, as long as he was together with Huan Mo Che, he wouldn’t do anything about it. During meals, he would take care of the dishes he liked, and when he drank water, he would pour out the water well. Even when he was resting, Huan Mo Che would carefully exhort Fearless repeatedly.
Picking up the cup, Shang Chen took a sip of tea. Suddenly, he saw a very unexpected person on the street. It wasn’t just Shang who saw it, even Huan Mo Che saw it.
Just as Shang Tong was about to get off the carriage, he was stopped by Huan Mo Che, who carefully avoided touching the crown prince’s wound. “Crown Prince, now is the early morning assembly, it’s inappropriate for the crown prince to be absent. Mo Che is willing to investigate!”
Shang Wuxin narrowed his eyes, the moment when Huan Mo Che was about to jump out of the carriage, he pulled Huan Mo Che’s arm, and ordered with a voice full of caution, “Do it carefully!”
Huan Mo Che looked at the crown prince who was holding onto his arm, and suddenly lowered his body, “If the crown prince is concerned, Mo Che would be willing to let him get injured!” As he spoke, he took Shang’s finger and hooked it with his own. Then, he got off the carriage with a smile, while Shang Wuxin sat in the carriage with a complicated expression on his face.
“Crown Prince, do you need me to protect you?” Fearless asked from outside the carriage. The person they had seen a while ago was actually the second princess, Shang Xiange, who was supposed to be in the palace. Because this person was too unorthodox, he was very cautious.
“Protect?” Although she loathed the look in his eyes while unknowingly falling into depravity, she had not reached the extent of liking him yet. Shang leaned on the wall of the horse carriage and played with the jade pendant in his hands, “If you are not alive to come back, then don’t come back!”
The Crown Prince was still as cold as ever, but if he could get a bit of warmth from the Crown Prince, it would be addictive.
Shang’s hand, which was in the middle of stroking the jade pendant, exerted some strength, but his face showed a hint of a smile … Huan Mo Che, Mo Che, I hope you can come back alive …
Many people noticed that there was something wrong with the crown prince this morning. They also felt that he was a little impatient, but if they were to look closely, it seemed rather normal. Shang Tong was in no mood to sit and listen to the court officials below. He had been listening from the beginning to the end, and it was only now that he realized that there was no one else to take care of these complicated matters without Huanmo Che.
“Crown Prince, right now, the Emperor is very ill, so the Crown Prince should get married as soon as possible. The people all say that it’s a good thing to get married, so the Crown Prince should be filial!” If this was any ordinary person, they would have thought that the marquis was someone of the fourth prince, but Shang did not have the heart to closely investigate that the marquis was not just a person of the fourth prince.
Shang was not in the mood to look down at the marquis, this marquis of the Qi family held fifty thousand men in his hands. This was only on the surface, even though it did not seem like much, it still made people wary of him, but because this marquis had always been careful, he never took back his army.
“Father is the Heavenly Son of the True Dragon. It won’t be long before he will be safe. The so-called celebration is just nonsense!” Shang replied unhappily. If he really married a girl and entered the crown prince’s residence, who knew how many days he would live before that stingy Han Xuanhao would kill him.
“Since the crown prince is already an adult, he should be able to marry into the imperial concubine’s family. Even if the main wife doesn’t have a secondary wife, the imperial concubine should be confirmed. Besides, no matter what the rumors say, the crown prince should try his luck at being the head of the Eastern Palace for the sake of the emperor’s health and safety!”
He waved his hand and said, “Now is the time for the Imperial Examinations. It would be inconvenient for you to choose a consort now, but you can choose a consort only after the Imperial Examinations are over and we can hold a banquet for the top scholar!” He decided to delay the matter for now. In the future, he would just reject the idea of choosing an imperial concubine.
The court officials wanted to exhort the crown prince, but they still held it in when they saw the crown prince’s unpleasant expression. They knew that the crown prince was not as gentle as he looked; after all, a few officials of the imperial court had been dismissed, and his methods were even fiercer than those of the emperor.
After that, Shang didn’t have the heart to pay a visit to Emperor Shang in his palace. Emperor Shang didn’t feel sick, but staying in the palace all day was rather boring, so he had recently written down some rules for the Imperial Examinations and passed them on to Emperor Shang to review and correct them. Emperor Shang had been very surprised from the very beginning, as he had spent the past few days in the palace to study and study, but his orders were always the same as the Crown Prince’s.
Just as Shang Wuxin returned to the crown prince’s residence, she asked fearlessly, “Has Mo Che returned?”
fearless, he did not know what had happened, but seeing the crown prince’s expression, he still replied, “Since Young Master Huan left this morning and has yet to return home, do you need me to look for him?”
Shang Wuxin shook his head, “No need, being able to return is my life, I can’t blame anyone if I can’t return!”
Fearless felt his heart ache as he looked at the crown prince’s expression. There was clearly a difference between the crown prince and Young Master Fantasy. Although he wasn’t as fond of the crown prince as he was of him, for some reason, he had the feeling that the crown prince’s feelings for him were very complicated.
“Fearless! Let Linga keep an eye on Shang Xiange, but do not alert the enemy!” Shang carelessly commanded, and then went into the study to take care of matters. Since he had already accepted most of the emperor’s affairs, there were endless paperwork for him to do every day.
“What happened to the crown prince?” She felt that the crown prince was not in a good mood.
Fearless glanced at the study room, “I’m afraid something must have happened to Young Master Fantasy, but the Crown Prince clearly cares about it, but he is not allowed to save her. If he does this, the most contradictory and painful thing will be the Crown Prince himself!”
No matter what decision the crown prince made, we will carry it out! ”
Shang was not in the mood to read the paper. He did not even see two paper clips before he stopped reading. He placed the paper into the study. Shang laid on the soft couch with his eyes closed, dozing off. His heart was suddenly as chaotic as seaweed.
Unknowingly, it was already noon. She took her lunch into the study and left. However, when she entered the study after the meeting, she found that the meal was already cold and she didn’t eat at all. Fearless’ eyes turned red as he looked at the crown prince lying on the floor.
Time slowly passed. When night arrived, Steward Hai stood outside the study, afraid that the Crown Prince wouldn’t use his dinner. However, just as the three of them were worried, they discovered that the Crown Prince had walked out.
It was only now that the three understood that the crown prince was really ruthless when he was being cruel to others and to himself as well.
While leisurely eating his dinner, Steward Hai discovered that not only did the crown prince not eat much, he even used a little more than usual. Immediately, he became even more worried, wanting to go out and find Young Noble Fantasy but afraid that the crown prince would be angry.
