The Captivating Crown Prince
chapter-174

Chapter 174

“Hate?” A man dressed in red appeared in the marquis’ wife’s room like a ghost.

The emaciated Madam Hou looked fearlessly at the man dressed in red appearing in her room late at night. If this really was a ghost, the marquis’ wife would rather go to hell to see if her poor child was safe or not.

“Hate!” I hate it! ” The marquis’ wife fell off the bed, her face full of tears. Her son had died in vain. Not only did Master Hou not punish those concubines, but he even hung out with those women. Her son, the dignified son of the house of the Marquis, didn’t even have a funeral and was buried hastily in the wilderness. How could she not hate him?

Han Xuanhao looked at the distorted marquis’ wife and smiled in satisfaction, “What if this sovereign can help you take revenge? Let the people who killed your son die a horrible death, and let the culprit, the leader of the group, hate it for the rest of his life? ”

“Good!” Help me! Please help me! ” Before Han Xuanhao could finish his words, the marquis’ wife knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Han Xuanhao nonstop. She was suffering everyday but she did not commit suicide to accompany her dead son. Wasn’t it all for the sake of hoping to see their retribution one day?

“Of course I can help you, but if you want to give me a reward, I won’t help you for nothing!” In the dark night, Han Xuan Hao was like a demon that led people into the deepest hell.

The marquis’ wife didn’t hesitate at all. Her wrinkled eyes radiated malice as she said, “As long as you avenge my son, I’m willing to do anything no matter what the lord asks of me!” A mother, a mother who had lost her child.

“This sovereign knows that Qi Hou has a fifty thousand soldier token. As long as you hand the token to this sovereign, this sovereign will be able to avenge your dead child!” Han Xuanhao looked at the marquis’ wife, who was kneeling on the floor, without a shred of sympathy. Instead, a hint of disinterest flashed across his eyes.

Normally, if the marquis’ wife were to hear these words, she would be frightened and think that the token was not good enough to enter the hands of others. But at this moment, when the marquis’ wife heard this request, she actually laughed out loud, “I will definitely find the token!” I hope that you will keep your word! ”

“Don’t worry. I can do what it takes to avenge your son!” This sovereign will return three days from now. I hope you will not disappoint this sovereign! ” With that, Han Xuanhao’s red figure disappeared from the room in a flash. As for the marquis’ wife who was kneeling on the ground, she started to laugh. Finally, she had the chance to avenge her poor child!

Han Xuan Hao did not return to the Star Pavilion after leaving Hou Mansion, and even the mansion that he had just bought a while ago went directly into the crown prince’s mansion. Han Xuan Hao did not return to the Star Pavilion after leaving Hou Mansion, and even the mansion that he had just bought not long ago went directly into the crown prince’s mansion.

Han Xuanhao walked directly into Shang’s chamber and saw him lying on the bed. Perhaps the blanket was too thick, but Shang had kicked the blanket away. Wearing a white undergarment, he laid softly on the huge bed. A head of jet-black hair spread out, reflecting that somewhat pale beautiful face. With raised eyelashes like a fan, she took in a long breath and slept very peacefully. Just a glance at her would cause people to feel pity for her.

Han Xuan Hao was about to reach out to touch the face, but he was stopped by a small hand. He said sleepily, “Midnight, you actually learned how to steal jade?”

Han Xuanhao raised his eyebrows as he took off his outer robe and laid down beside Shang Wuxin, kissing the tip of Shang Wuxin’s nose. There was a mocking tone in the voice, “If this incense was my heart, I would steal it even if it were Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild.”

“Bitch!” Shang Wuxin sneered, feeling much better. Han Xuanhao looked like an ordinary person who could act coquettishly and act shamelessly with him. Han Xuanhao had made his life much more colorful.

Han Xuanhao approached Shang Wuxin and said, “I don’t know about a poor mouth, but do you want to have a taste of what it tastes like?” Ever since his relationship with Shang Wuxin, Han Xuanhao had always wanted to get closer to him, and he liked how the two of them were so intimate.

Shang Xin decided not to answer him and turned around to go to sleep, but this action of his made Han Xuanhao wince. He could stay here tonight! However, Han Xuanhao was a man of his word. He knew that if he held Shang Wuxin’s arm, he would not do anything out of line. “Xin’er, are you not going to ask me why I’m here so late?”

“He went to Hou Mansion!” Shang Wuxin said casually with his eyes closed.

Han Xuanhao, who originally wanted to keep him in suspense, suddenly felt bored. However, he eventually told Shang unwittingly about it, thinking that Shang unwittingly was too smart for him. If he wanted to maintain his position as the main wife, he could not resort to tricks in the future.

With Han Xuanhao by his side, Shang Wuxin did not wake up in the middle of the night. However, he was woken up by the sound of the door being knocked on fearlessly. Han Xuanhao wanted to cover Shang Wuxin’s ears, but he was a step too late as he saw Shang Wuxin open his eyes.

“What is it?” Shang was not in the mood to ask, it seems the matter was not small at this late hour. As for Han Xuanhao, he took up his outer robe and began putting it on Shang Wuxin.

“Crown Prince, the Qing Empire is invading us! The emperor has already allowed General Leng and the others to enter the palace overnight. The crown prince of the palace must also enter the palace! ” The fearless voice also sounded anxious. After all, when the war started, everything was different.

As for Han Xuanhao, he took a comb and combed Shang’s hair, since it was an urgent matter, he could do it as he pleased. Shang, however, was not in the mood to push open the door of the sleeping quarters, and directly rode his horse towards the imperial palace.

“Father!” When Shang Bin entered the royal study, Emperor Shang, Leng Yufeng and Illusory Mo Che, as well as some ministers from the neutral faction were already standing there, discussing the situation solemnly. Upon seeing Shang uninterested, they all bowed in greeting.

Shang Wuxin waved his hand and sat beside Emperor Shang, looking at Leng Yufeng. “What’s going on?” Although she was preparing to attack Qing Guo, many things were not taken care of well. At this moment, it was not a good time to start a war with Qing Guo.

“It was my subordinates who found out that Qing was mobilizing a lot of troops and slowly approaching the border. Even though they were moving very slowly and very stealthily, we still discovered them! Maybe Qing still have some scruples and don’t send an army of only 50,000 people, looks like they are testing us! ” Although Leng Yufeng was not at the border, he had been through so many years and was loyal to his trusted aides. Leng Yufeng knew everything about the editors in the capital like the back of his hand.

“Take the initiative!” Shang was not in the mood to make a final decision. “Nowadays, the citizens are increasingly clamoring for revenge against Qing, and this incident is even more infuriating.” “Furthermore, the Qing Empire did not send anyone here to resolve the dispute. If the State of Shang does not send troops to send troops, it will lose its morale of troops and lose its face as well!”

Although it was loyal, the State of Shang had been calm for many years. Although it would occasionally have the courage to not cause a great war, many ministers disagreed when they heard the crown prince’s words.

Everyone discussed in the emperor’s royal study until dawn. In the end, they also listened to the crown prince’s suggestion; they had to strike first!

Seeing that it was almost time for the morning assembly, Shang Wuxin and the other two men went straight to court without even changing their clothes. Fortunately, with their identities in the assembly, no one said a thing even if they didn’t wear their court uniform.

“If not for the crown prince’s order, I’m afraid that the crown prince would not be able to stand here today. I understand that the two countries have been friends for so long and yet not a single envoy of the emperor has come. Since that’s the case, General Leng, immediately send troops to Qing Province to take back some face for our country!” “The State of Shang cannot be bullied!” Emperor Shang stood up from the Dragon Throne and spoke harshly to the courtiers and officials below. His tone was tinged with the pressure of a superior.

Some people agreed, but there were also people who objected. Qi Hou was the first to step forward, “Your majesty, the crown prince is safe and sound right now. As the head of the Eastern Palace, the Crown Prince was sure to bring good to the people! I don’t want a war to happen! ”

“Qi Hou means that everything that happened to me in Qing Dynasty deserved it? Or do you feel that the State of Shang is allowing the Qing Nation to humiliate it? ” Shang mocked him. He could no longer bear to see the current Marquis of Qi being so troublesome to deal with. Shang’s temper was not good at all.

“Crown Prince, you can’t just spout slander!” Qi Hou was so angry that his beard was twitching. When he saw the Duke of Qing’s actions, he held back his anger. He was just a brat, it was unknown how long he could sit for as the crown prince.

“You’re slandering me? Qi Hou’s words were so pleasing to the ears! If I remember correctly, Qi Hou was in a brothel in the capital a few days ago! For a person who isn’t strict with his work, it’s best if he doesn’t say too many things in front of the nation’s affairs! ” Shang’s unintentional words made many people think of Qi Hou’s behavior. Even though every mansion had their own dirty things, many people did not care about their own sons. The crown prince’s words were said by many people, even Qi Hou looked down on them and kept his distance.

“You …” Qi Hou wanted to say something, but Leng Yufeng was standing next to the crown prince. Leng Yufeng had a cold expression on his face, and the smell of blood on his body made Qi Hou unable to speak.

When Huan Mo Che saw that half of the ministers were opposed to sending out their troops, he was just about to say something anxiously, but at this moment, a guard ran in from outside. “Your majesty, it’s bad!” The Qing said that their envoy had disappeared, and that the Qing Crown Prince is now bringing people to ask for him! ”

“How dare you!” Emperor Shang shouted angrily, “The envoy has not even seen a shadow. Is there no one else in the Empire of Shang now? How dare they blatantly frame the State of Shang?!”

“What a good plan!” Huanmo Che could not believe that his envoy did not arrive in the country to receive the news, he could only say that Shang Wuxin definitely did something to it, but at that time, Shang Wuqin had already planned it out, and Huanmo Che’s heart was filled with admiration for him.

Shang was not in the mood to lower his voice, “It’s just taking three steps at a time!” At that time, when he told Huan Mo Che to settle Shang Chen’s matters with the ambassador, Shang unintentionally made a plan and caused the envoy to come to Shang Xia in the eyes of Qing Dynasty. Shang unintentionally used this as an excuse, but he did not expect Qing Kingdom to cause trouble so quickly.

“Minister Zuo, you go! Let my people see the evil deeds of Qing Dynasty and let everyone under the heavens know its shamelessness! ” He did not even allow the Qing people to enter the palace. Moreover, only by being outside could more people see how excessive the Qing Dynasty was. At this moment, the Qing Empire thought that their envoys had come here, but they did not know that all the citizens in the capital knew that their envoys had never set foot in this land!

“royal father, Qing Guo has humiliated us to this extent! This son requests for orders! “Attack Qing Nation!” Shang was not in the mood to stand, his voice reverberating through the air.

“I second that!” The ministers fell to their knees. At this moment, no matter how they tried to coax the others, the unruly and unreasonable Qing Dynasty was in front of them, so they had no choice but to agree to this war.

At the entrance of the city, Qing Kui and his men were stopped at the entrance. No matter how Qing Kui and his men shouted at them, the guards didn’t let them pass. The capital was the capital of Shang. Not only were there citizens of Shang, but also young masters and mistresses who came to visit the capital from time to time. Qing Kui stood there and attracted many people to point at him.

“Is that the crown prince of Qing Country, the one who tried to kill the crown prince, Qing Kui?” A woman said in disbelief, “He looks so ugly, not even a little bit as beautiful as the crown prince!”

“Yes! The crown prince congratulated him out of goodwill.

“I pity that little princess of Qing Country. She was actually killed by her own brother at such a young age!”

“No, she’s the princess of our country, Shang now. Such a woman died protecting the crown prince, how admirable!”

There was only anger on his face and an unspeakable awkwardness in his heart. He couldn’t make a move against these civilians, so he could only watch as the soldiers blocking the way took out the guard’s long sword and pointed it at the soldiers. “Get out of the way!” Who do you think you are to stop this crown prince! Be careful that I may kill you with a single slash! ”

“Crown Prince Qing is so bold!” Shang Wuxin brought the group of people out of the crowd and looked at Qing Kui with a sinister voice.

At this time, Huan Mo Che suddenly nudged an official beside him and said to Qing Kui, “Crown Prince Qing disregarded all logic to kill his own sister, but now he’s actually behaving so atrociously in Shang Country. Crown Prince Qing is truly capable!”

Although that official didn’t want to go forward, he didn’t know why the Minister of the Left was dragging him along.

“How could a person like Crown Prince Qing assume the position of Crown Prince? He’s simply not even comparable to the local ruffians or hooligans of Shang Country!” Huan Mo Che said with a smile.

He thought of the recent days when the court officials wanted to strip him of his title as Crown Prince. He thought of the complaints of the people of the country towards him, thought of the court officials who fawned on him and kept away from him. He thought of the people who came to Shang Tong just now and knew how they despised him and despised him, there were too many unwillingness for Qing Kui to see his father’s mocking expression.

It seemed that he had been mistaken in his identity. Looking at the smiling crown prince, this courtier knew that perhaps all of this was planned by the crown prince, but he could not say anything.
