The Captivating Crown Prince
chapter-180

Chapter 180

“Take good care of yourself!” Nangong Qian personally helped Shang by taking care of his personal belongings.

But even though Nangong Qian had that kind of intention, he couldn’t do it with the meticulous Han Xuanhao. He either packed all of his clothes into Shang’s careless bag or put everything in the carriage that was useless to him. Although it was careful, it was messy, and even his eyes flashed when he saw Dauntless.

Seeing Nangong Qian bring a plate of fruits into the horse carriage, Shang Wuxin couldn’t bear it any longer and hurriedly stopped him, “You can just let them do these things!” Nangong Qian was still the right person to command him. Doing such a small thing in life would make things difficult for him, but Shang Tong did not do it on purpose because of Nangong Qian’s actions.

He passed the fruit he was carrying over to the fearless Nangong Qian and accompanied Shang Wuxin to stand at the entrance of the Qian House to watch everyone organize their things. Although he wanted to hold Shang Wuxin’s hand, the Qian House was in love with a commoner outside of the house. Even if he wanted Shang Wuxin, he was unwilling.

“I should go!” Shang Xin nodded at Nangong Qian and prepared to leave on the horse carriage. However, their hands were held by Nangong Qian under their wide sleeves. Because the two of them were wearing loose clothes and their sleeves were folded together, no one could see what was going on inside. Thus, no one noticed Nangong Qian openly holding Shang Wuxin’s hand, but Nangong Lian, who was standing behind them, saw everything.

Shang Xin’s index finger grazed Nangong Qian’s palm. “Are you still not letting go?” This person had just recruited the Nangong Country so he was not afraid of creating some sort of reputation for himself.

Nangong Qian was distracted by Shang unwittingly scratching his palm, “If you encounter any problems, just let me know!” There are too many men in the military camp, so you should take note.

Initially, Shang Bin was still moved by Nangong Qian’s act of personally bowing, but after hearing Nangong Qian’s words of warning, he did not have any more thoughts. He just threw Nangong Qian’s hand and got on the horse carriage, not even bidding farewell to him.

Nangong Qian looked at the horse carriage that left him in defeat as he felt a wave of unhappiness in his heart. Although his temperament had changed a lot when he was facing Shang, but he had unknowingly revealed the tyranny hidden deep within his bones.

“Royal brother?” Nangong Lian looked at the direction that Prince Shang’s carriage left in. After a long while, she could only ask, “Can we talk?”

At this moment, Nangong Lian felt her mind was in a mess. It was even more confused than when she was rejected by Lin Jia Er. She had always known that her imperial brother was not someone who would get close to women. As for Nangong Lian, she also did not think much of those women who wanted to stick close to her. In Nangong Lian’s heart, her royal brother was a heavenly person, so he should be the best girl to be compatible with. However, even after so many years, no girl could enter her eyes, let alone her royal brother. Nangong Lian had thought that when her royal brother had the power in the future, he might find a docile girl to have a family. She might not love him, but she respected him. However, things happened too fast. Nangong Lian had the urge to panic.

Nangong Qian withdrew his gaze and saw that his little sister was looking at him with a complicated expression. Since Nangong Qian had already made up his mind not to hide some things from him. Thus, he only glanced at Nangong Lian before walking towards the mansion. Nangong Lian followed behind her and the two of them sat down in their respective study rooms.

Looking at her royal brother drinking tea at his desk, it was unknown where Nangong Lian’s words came from. It was Nangong Qian who opened his mouth to speak after seeing Nangong Lian’s hesitation, “But you knew? Do you also understand now? ”

Nangong Qian knew that this little sister of his was not stupid and was actually very smart. However, she was not comparable to Shang Wuxin. Thinking of this, Nangong Qian felt a burst of pride. Thus, Nangong Qian did not think that he would hide anything from Nangong Lian. Moreover, Nangong Qian felt that sooner or later, he would bring this love into the eyes of others.

“Yes, royal brother. You’re in love with Crown Prince Shang?” Furthermore, she also knew that her imperial brother was living in the same room as Crown Prince Shang last night. When she thought about the rumors about Crown Prince Shang in Shang and the Left Premier Mo Che, it was hard for Nangong Lian to ignore them.

“En!” Nangong Qian admitted directly.

“But you’re all men?” Nangong Lian retorted, “Besides, Crown Prince Shang has a young master in the State of Shang and there’s also the red-clothed Young Master who is sticking close to him all the time. Don’t you know all of these royal brothers?”

“So what?” Nangong Qian scolded. He knew that he would not let go, but when he thought about how many men Nangong Qian had with Shang Wuxin, his heart sank. This feeling made Nangong Qian feel helpless and angry, “You only need to know that she will be this king’s person from now on, and she will also be your sister-in-law!”

For Shang unintentionally’s safety, Nangong Qian would not reveal her identity, even if it was his own little sister, Nangong Qian. However, he had also given his little sister a warning beforehand, which saved this little girl from worrying about him.

Nangong Lian lowered her head and thought for a long time. She couldn’t help but admit that Nangong Lian had a good impression of Crown Prince Shang. If Crown Prince Shang was a woman, Nangong Lian would have turned him into her imperial sister-in-law. However, Nangong Lian also knew what kind of person her royal brother was. As long as her royal brother determined it, she would not change it. She only hoped for him to be happy.

“I understand, Royal Brother. Prince Shang is a very proud person. Don’t hurt her!” Nangong Lian left the study after saying that. She didn’t even manage her own affairs, let alone interfere with her royal brother’s feelings. However, her royal brother was too domineering, and Prince Shang already had an outstanding man by his side. She didn’t want her royal brother to be the enemy of Prince Shang, that was all.

“This King understands!” Nangong Qian closed his eyes and sighed. If he didn’t understand what happened last night, he would have taken the medicine and left the Crown Prince Shang here.

“Participate, Crown Prince!” Each of them was wearing black armor, and their actions brought about a strong wind. Shang had already felt the morale of their troops even before they had arrived at the military camp, one had to admit that the generals under Leng Yufeng’s command were indeed rare.

Leng Yufeng stood at the very front of the group. He did not wear any armor, but was only wearing a black robe, with a beautiful curve of his chin, and a sharp outline. Because he looked at Shang Wuxin, who did not lose his gentleness, his sexy lips had a faint smile, his pitch-black pupils glimmering like the stars in the night sky.

“Thank you for your hard work, but you don’t need to be so courteous outside!” Shang Tong directly waved his hand and said. These generals were all Leng Yufeng’s trusted aides, and they were not as complicated as the people in the imperial court. Shang Wuxin did not want them to think too much about him just because of these courtesies.

Some of them had seen the crown prince before, but they had all heard that the crown prince was a man they admired. Those who could make General Leng serve them trusted General Leng’s judgement, and now, seeing that the crown prince looked like a pretty boy, the generals felt more kindly disposed towards him.

“Unintentional!” Leng Yufeng was excited to see Shang. Perhaps it was because this place was his own territory, but he was a little hot-blooded, and his voice sounded even more anxious. “Soldiers are ready, let’s go take a look!”

Shang carelessly nodded his head. By now, Qing State already knew that their crown prince, Qing Kui, had been humiliated to death by Crown Prince Shang in Shang, so Qing State had begun redeploying its troops in recent days. Shang was prepared to depart as soon as he saw the border soldiers. Things could not be delayed now.

The situation at the border was just as hard as Shang had imagined. The sky was filled with endless wastelands, without the bustling and bustling of the capital city. The best place on the border was the city on the border, and Leng Yufeng had his own mansion there. Although Leng Yufeng wanted to take Shang Guanfeng to see it, time was of the essence.

As he followed Leng Yufeng up to a building, he saw numerous soldiers in black armor below. Although he couldn’t see their faces, he could sense their passion and excitement.

“Crown Prince!” A sonorous and forceful sound rang out, startling a flock of birds.

Shang Chen was not in the mood to look down at the soldiers. He wore a black satin robe that revealed the silver fringes of a hibiscus flower. She wore a jade belt around her waist and placed both of her hands on the balcony railing. The soldiers below could only see the strange figure in the sky. He was like a god that they could only look up to and submit to. With just a glance, she was domineering, fierce, and brazen.

“Are you afraid of death?” Shang unintentionally’s voice was mixed with the internal force that was transmitted to the soldiers’ ears, causing the few generals beside her to be shocked. They did not expect the crown prince to have such profound internal force at such a young age.

“No!” “Don’t be afraid!”

Shang was not in the mood to look at the hot-blooded soldiers below. His blood was boiling as well. He leaned forward and looked at the soldiers below, his voice filled with authority. “But I am afraid!” His single sentence caused the soldiers below to quiet down. They looked up in confusion at the seemingly weak, godlike young man.

“I’m afraid that you will be injured! I’m afraid you might fall in a foreign land! Because you are my people, and your families are waiting for you! Therefore, I hope that you all can take up the weapons in your hands and kill all of our enemies! I want to take you away, and I also want to bring you back! “So, follow me and work hard to live. You are the heroes of the country of Shang!” Every word that came out of Shang’s mouth struck fear into the hearts of everyone present. The soldiers that had been fighting for so many years fell to their knees, and even the high-ranking officers on the balcony followed suit.

“Crown Prince!” “Crown Prince!” He shouted excitedly on the ground, “Crown Prince!” “Crown Prince!”

Whether it was the generals or the soldiers, the imperial court had never cared about them. The imperial government needed victory, but the crown prince’s words had made them feel that they were not useless cannon fodder, but the crown prince’s people, the heroes that the crown prince cared about! They didn’t ask for much, they threw their lives away on the battlefield, they just needed to care about respect!

Leng Yufeng stood there and watched as the Crown Prince talked about the soldiers and generals. He knew that Shang Wuxin’s words were just to win the hearts of the soldiers, but Leng Yuefeng had to admit that even though it was for the sake of benefits, he was still a lot better than those people. He also understood that Shang Wuxin respected these soldiers, and from his eyes, one could tell the difference.

Shang did not have the heart to stand there and watch the soldiers below. He did not say any encouraging words, only ordinary words, and shared the things one should pay attention to on the battlefield. This kind of sharing surprised everyone. Even though the Crown Prince had never gone to the battlefield, they had still benefited greatly from what he had said.

Leng Yufeng had a serious expression on his face, his starry eyes were fixed on Shang Wuxin, this Shang Wuxin wanted to give him a pleasant surprise, at this moment Leng Yufeng felt like he did not understand Shang Wuxin at all, but he also wanted to get closer to Shang Wuxin.

“What I have said is merely my humble opinion. There will be a myriad of changes in the battlefield, and what is needed is also change! But now, standing here, what I need is loyalty! ” Shang spread his arms casually, as if he was a king.

“Loyalty! “Loyalty!”

Shang carelessly nodded his head. Today, she offered too much to these soldiers’ loyalty and acceptance. After all, it was easy for a person without military merits like himself to be rejected. That was why he said so much to win the hearts of the soldiers. She planned to use her iron-blooded wrists to intimidate these soldiers in the future.

“Now, take off your armor!” Shang’s unintentional voice was tough, as if the crown prince who was gently concerned about them had changed his expression. Even the generals on the balcony had taken off their heavy armor. Leng Yufeng, who was not wearing any armor at all, just stood there, watching Shang and not in the mood for any kind of action.

Shang nodded his head in satisfaction, and saw about a thousand men in black robes pushing carriages over. Those people were walking quietly, but their eyes were fierce. The black robes were embroidered with an inconspicuous blood lotus.

“The armor you are wearing is heavy. Not only do you not make it too loud, but if you really meet the enemy, then you won’t be touched. This is the armor I’ve personally customized for you!” Shang didn’t have the heart to say that the Blood Solidification Army had sent down a set of very light and light armor. It was said that the armor was similar to a brocade robe, but a layer of soft armor had been added to the chest area of the armor.

Armour was actually something used to restrain soldiers, but because it had been passed on for a long time, it was not discarded. Besides, armors could not resist it at all, so the soldiers could easily wear new armors or clothes.

The generals did not dare to look down on Dreadless and the others. Although they were women, it was hard for them to not look down on them too much, so they quickly took their clothes and put them on with a grateful smile. The weather was slowly getting hot. The soldiers were often wearing armor, and during the day, their skin and flesh were cut open by the wear and tear. No one could have thought that the crown prince would even think of such a trivial matter.

Shang Wuxin took the clothes from the fearless hands and came to Leng Yufeng’s side.

Leng Yufeng was flattered: “Mine?” Because he didn’t wear much armor, he thought that this armor didn’t belong to him.

Looking at Leng Yufeng, who was wagging his tail, a smile flashed across Shang’s eyes as he approached Leng Yufeng, “I designed this clothes myself, they are all different!” With one sentence, Leng Yufeng’s neck turned red, and his hands that held the clothes began to sweat.

“Thank you, I like it!” Leng Yufeng did not dare to look at Shang Wuxin, afraid that so many generals would see through him.

Shang Wuxin clearly knew that he shouldn’t talk too much with Leng Yufeng, but he could not help but tease him, “You’re not even wearing anything, and you already said you like it. Are you just fawning on me?”

Leng Yufeng anxiously explained: “No! You like everything you send! ”

“Ha ha!” Shang was not in the mood to return to the balcony. “Prepare to march!”
