The Captivating Crown Prince
chapter-268-30041322

Chapter 268

Emperor Shang was too ill to go to court, and the crown prince did not take charge of the situation. Even the Left Premier, who was usually able to stabilize the court, was nowhere to be seen. The already weird and suspicious Imperial court had been in a state of unrest the entire day. Now that the news of the crown prince’s death and the whereabouts of Minister Zuo had suddenly leaked out, the Imperial Court had truly been in an uproar.

Rumors were getting more and more outrageous. In just a few days, rumors were spreading all over the capital like this. The citizens didn’t do anything except worry about the beloved crown prince, but the imperial court was different. There was a mountain of paper in the royal study room, but each of them wrote about the crown prince and the Minister of the Left. Emperor Shang had to suppress the paper every day, but he couldn’t, because court officials were already kneeling outside the imperial study asking for orders.

However, regardless of what the court officials said, the Crown Prince would still go to the Imperial Court to beat them up. Later on, the Crown Prince would not even listen to what the Emperor had to say about the Crown Prince, but no one knew how upset the Emperor was. Even though he didn’t know whether his daughter was dead or alive, he couldn’t help it, so he let his court officials force him to do something about it.

Shang Wuxin and the rest quietly returned to the crown prince’s mansion, ignoring the rumors surrounding the capital. There was even a hint of laissez-faire, which was why the rumors were spreading so quickly.

After returning to the crown prince’s residence, the few men all returned to their own courtyards. Shang Xin, on the other hand, had changed his clothes. The first one to look for him was Yi Yin.

The courtyard arranged for Yinyin was not far from the sleeping quarters. Shang Wuxin was incredulous when he first entered the courtyard. This courtyard had originally been very comfortable and elegant ever since Yi Yin had moved in. The beautiful flowers and trees here had been meticulously taken care of. However, the strange flowers and plants in this courtyard were now all withered and withered. It was a terrifying desolation.

Before he even entered the room, he heard Auntie Chun’s voice saying, “Mistress, you have to eat something, even if you can’t, you have to eat something, sometimes you have to think about other things for the Family Head. Now that the Crown Prince is in trouble, what if something happens to you again, Master?”

Aunt Chun looked at Yi Yin who was sitting there with a pained expression on her face. Although she did not know how many times she had persuaded her wife, she had only managed to eat a few mouthfuls each time she listened to her mother. Now, watching her emaciated appearance, she did not know how many times she had secretly burned incense to pray for the crown prince’s safe return.

Just as Aunt Chun was praying for the crown prince to be safe, the crown prince actually appeared. For a moment, Aunt Chun felt like she had seen a ghost. She was so excited that she wanted to speak, but the crown prince stopped her and took the meal from him. Auntie Chun’s eyes were bloodshot. If it weren’t for the fact that Madam had kowtowed a long time ago and deeply gazed at the crown prince before leaving the room, she would have felt relieved now.

Shang Bin stood behind Yiyin with a bowl of porridge in his hands, while Yiyin sat on a large chair. Although one could not see her expression, Shang’s knew that this mother-like person had a lonely look in her eyes. He had once heard from Ye Yizhe that on the night of his father’s death, Yinyin had lost half of her black hair. Now, Shang was able to see that Yinyin’s hair had indeed turned a lot whiter, but this time it was because of him.

Looking at these people, Shang lost his mind to Ye Yizhi. This mother and son were so frail, yet at the same time, they were also very affectionate. Luckily, Ye Yizhi did not come over, otherwise, if Yi Yin saw his son’s white hair, she would be very worried.

“Since when did aunty learn to be a child and need someone to coax her when she’s eating?” The sudden voice of Shang made Yi Yin turn around to see a smiling youth carrying a bowl of congee with a helpless look on his face.

“Child!” Yinyin did not expect Shang Wuxin to stand safely in front of her. The recovered Yinyin embraced her son into her arms. The embrace was not big enough, but it was warm enough to be warm enough.

The bowl in Shang’s hand was almost overturned. He used his inner force to place the bowl on the table and placed his right hand on Yi Yin’s back, “…” He wanted to say something comforting, but nothing came out of his mouth.

Yinyin’s crying sound really wasn’t good, it even sounded like she was howling like ghosts. Not every woman would be pitied if they cried. Looking at Yinyin’s appearance, perhaps no one would dare to imagine that she was even more crying than a man.

With much difficulty, Shang Wuxin finally stopped crying.

“Pah!” Shang Bin’s face received a solid slap. Although this slap wasn’t painful, it was a disgrace to a person like Shang Wuxin who cared about his reputation. Although he was a little surprised that Yinyin actually hit him, he did not expect her to suddenly curse, “You can do it!” You dare to save a life in such a high place? Do you think you’re just going to die like that? How can there be a selfish person like you in this world! ”

Listening to Yinyin’s scolding, Shang’s unintentional killing intent slowly faded away, but Yinyin still fiercely scolded him, “If I knew you were such a child, why would I treat you as my daughter?!” In order to make me worry for so long, do you think everyone who saved you is brainless? Didn’t I say that you are very smart and cold? ”

At the corner of his mouth, there was a trace of red, but his smile was still there, “Because that person is my aunt!” Not an outsider nor an enemy, it’s you! ”

His words caused the tears that finally stopped to flow again. Fortunately, no sound was produced this time, otherwise Shang Wuxin would really run away!

“Even if it’s me, you can’t save it! You are already a crown prince, why can’t you tell that? You are so stupid yet you don’t even know how you became the crown prince. No matter who bullies you, you are not allowed to take any risks, do you understand? ” Yinyin said in disappointment. She couldn’t wait to grab Shang’s ears and reprimand him. The more he cared about her, the more scared he became. Even Yinyin, who was usually a strong woman, was no exception.

Listening to this disrespectful lesson, for the first time, Shang Wuxin had the impulse to continue listening to him. However, she had no idea that her smiling and admiring expression would make her heart hurt. How much this child longed for kinship to be able to ignore the face of a woman, and yet was still able to smile and listen to her scolding.

Of course, there were plenty of good medicines for his son, the Godly Doctor Yi Yin. He took out a bottle of ointment and pulled Shang to sit down to wipe the ointment. Seeing the marks on the porcelain skin, Yi Yin’s heart ached. It was his own daughter!

“Do you think this child is stupid? You don’t even know how to hide? ” After teaching Shang a few words, he could not help but feel his heart ache, “Do you think I have lost my mind? How can I use such a heavy hand? It would be better if I did …” Does it still hurt? ”

The nagging Yiyin made Shang feel more relaxed. She held Yiyin’s hand that was still trying to cover his face, “Aunt, I’m fine!” You don’t have to feel guilty, there are some things that I understand! ” Perhaps being slapped at the start was truly filled with anger and killing intent, but later on, he felt happy for such an elder who cared for him.

After the great sorrow and joy, Yinyin finally stopped crying. Shang Wuxin’s mouth twitched as she hurriedly called Aunt Chun in and flew out of the yard using the light skill. She really did not have the habit of coaxing people.

But before she left, she heard Yinyin’s voice, “Child, go see your father. He’s very worried about you!”

“Madam, you’ve been frightened by the crown prince!” When Aunt Chun thought of the crown prince who had fled, she couldn’t help but laugh. However, Madam’s crying and crying could only be endured by the old master. Even the current head of the family would be able to hide when he heard his wife’s crying.

Yi Yin put down the medicine bottle and pulled Aunt Chun to sit down. She sighed, “This child … It was even more painful than Yizhi! I’ve thought about it. Whether she and Yizhi are together in the future or not, it’s fine if they don’t have any fate. This child is my child, and no one can bully him! ”

“Yes!” Yes! Yes! Madam, your heart must have been set off! ” Auntie Chun teased. Now that the crown prince had returned safe and sound, the madame was in high spirits. The crown prince’s residence had finally survived this ordeal. How great!

Shang unintentionally left Yinyin’s courtyard and instead went straight to the Night Pavilion. At this moment, Ye Yi Zhe was in charge of affairs in his room. Shang unintentionally saw Ye Yi Zhe’s happy face as soon as he entered the room, “Xin’er!” Ye Yi Zhe was only happy for a moment. He looked angrily at Shang’s face and asked, “Who did it?”

Although Shang Wuxin had applied the medicine on his face, his skin was already pale and delicate, it was easy to tell at a glance.

Looking at Ye Yi Zhe’s nervous appearance, Shang unintentionally said, “This was personally beaten by my aunt!” It was said that daughter-in-law and mother-in-law didn’t get along well, although now she and Yinyin were more like mother and daughter.

Ye Yi Zhe looked at Shang Bin’s blushing face and felt his heart ache, but it was his mother who started the beating. From the smell of Shang’s medicine, he knew that his mother must have applied the medicine for Shang’s sake, but he could not beat up his mother.

“Xin Er, why don’t you hit me and vent your anger by ruthlessly beating me up. I will send my mother back!” Ye Yi Zhe felt that this was the best way. Since his mother and Shang didn’t have the heart to get along, but since both of them were important people to him, then he might as well separate from them and never see them again.

“You, I’m teasing you!” Shang Wuxin laughed, “What can happen between aunt and I? But seeing how concerned aunt is for me now, your son is going to be spoiled!”

“As long as you don’t lose your favor here in my heart!” Ye Yi Zhe rarely said such words.

Shang was not in the mood to look at this man. He seemed to be more and more emotional with each passing moment. “I’ll dye your hair,” he said, tugging at Ye Yi Zhe’s white hair.

Ye Yi Zhe had already made the ointment for these few days, so the Godly Doctor must have made it. When Ye Yi Zhe brought it over, Shang had accidentally smelled it, spreading Ye Yi Zhe’s hair and smearing the ointment on it. Shang was not in the mood to be careful, Ye Yi Zhe also enjoyed the atmosphere.

After the two of them were busy for two hours, Shang Wuxin personally washed Ye Yi Zhe’s hair. Although Ye Yi Zhe’s scalp was hurting from the pain and he didn’t feel comfortable washing, Ye Yi Zhe still had a smile on his face from start to finish.

After the cleaning, Ye Yizhi’s originally gorgeous hair turned black. Shang carelessly stroked Ye Yizhi’s hair and said gently, “This hair was born for me …”
