Chapter 91
Shang Wuxin was about to enter the main hall to attend to today’s dinner, but she saw Nangong Qian suddenly stand up. Under the crowd’s gaze, he grabbed Shang Wuxin’s hand and used his lightness technique to leave the palace.
Leng Yufeng was about to give chase when the crown prince’s voice sounded, “I have nothing to do. You can take care of the rest!”
No matter how uncomfortable Leng Yufeng’s heart was, he didn’t know what Nangong Qian wanted to do, but he was still jealous when he saw Nangong Qian holding the hand of the crown prince. At that time, he actually took a step forward to block Nangong Qian’s movement.
Looking at the court officials and the young master, Leng Yufeng’s heart was filled with irritation, but he knew that he couldn’t do this. Since he wanted to protect the crown prince, he couldn’t let himself be so overbearing, or the crown prince would really leave him one day.
No matter how uncomfortable Leng Yufeng’s heart was, he still dutifully took care of these people and gave the departing Duke Qian and crown prince a good reason.
At this moment, Shang Wuxin was carried away by Nangong Qian for a long time before stopping. At this time, the two of them were standing on the highest tower in the palace. This tower was very tall, but standing here, one could feel that it was very close to the sky.
Shang Wuxin withdrew her hand and slowly walked towards the tower. Nangong Qian looked at his empty hand and felt uncomfortable, but she still followed slowly. The two of them walked up step by step, Shang Wuxin was looking at the stars in the sky, and Nangong Qian was looking at Shang Wuxin beside her.
When the two of them stood at the top of the tower, Shang Wuxin smiled, because this beautiful scenery, smiling like a spring flower, full of beauty and beauty. Nangong Qian also smiled. Because of the smile of his sweetheart, his smile melted like an iceberg. Spring blossoms bloomed as he tenderly loved her.
“How beautiful!” Shang Wuxin extended her small and fair hand to touch the starry sky, wanting to touch the night sky. Her entire being was as lovable as a flower in the night, making people want to let her play with the best in the world.
“How beautiful!” Nangong Qian did not let go of every single movement of the young man. He had seen the most beautiful thing in the past, and that was power. To Nangong Qian, power was the most beautiful thing, but only this young man could be called beautiful.
The two of them stood there for a long time. Shang was not in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery and tranquility. Nangong Qian was reluctant to part with him. He was reluctant to part with the devilish brat that made him want to strangle her, or the youth that wanted to rub his heart into his body, or the Crown Prince that wanted to compete with him. No matter how he felt, he was so angry that he was reluctant to part with him because of this young man, even if Nangong Qian did not want to admit it.
It was only when a gust of cold wind blew past Nangong Qian that he realized that Prince Shang was wearing very little, without even thinking, Nangong Qian had already taken off his outer robe and placed it on Prince Shang’s shoulders. The robe that he was wearing was a lot bigger on Prince Shang, like a child stealing the clothes of an adult. Because the robe was his, and because Prince Shang did not refuse him.
Shang Wuxin did not reject the clothes on her shoulders, because she felt that it was indeed very cold and did not want to miss such a beautiful scene. Moreover, Nangong Qian’s clothes had the smell of a Dragon’s Saliva on Nangong Qian, just like Nangong Qian.
“From here, you can look down on the entire palace!” Nangong Qian’s voice was filled with the desire to conquer. He had once wanted to take this rich country of Shang into his own hands, and he had spent his entire life fighting over these powers.
Shang Wuxin retracted his gaze from the tower and looked at the entire palace of Shang. The palace was very luxurious, adding a sense of solemnity to the night, but Shang Wuxin sensed that this was just a cage, a cage that had lost its freedom, a cage with lost power and feelings.
“At the highest point, you can see the scenery that no one else can see!” Shang Wuxin sighed with emotion, then he looked at Nangong Qian who was standing beside him, “Qian Wang, are you interested in Shang?” His tone wasn’t one of probing, but a kind of questioning between friends.
Nangong Qian breathed out deeply, extending his hand to hold onto Shang Wuxin’s little hand, “In the past, I always wanted to reclaim one country after another and become this supreme emperor!” “The people who stand at the highest place and look down on us are like ants, enjoying all the glory!”
Shang Wuxin did not pull out her hand. She and Nangong Qian had imagined too much. If it were not because they were too similar, Shang Wuxin might have wanted to take this man in. It was a pity that Shang Wuxin was not in the mood to feel her heart beating slowly and uniformly. She was not in the mood right now.
“And now?” Shang Wuxin asked with a smile. Nangong Qian was ambitious, but this made Shang Wuxin admire her even more. Wasn’t it power that people in their position sought? The more insecure a person is, the more likely it is that they will grab onto something material to protect themselves from wearing a mask.
“Heh …” Nangong Qian tightened his grip on Shang Wuxin, “This is even more so now!” Nangong Qian clearly knew that if he didn’t have the supreme power in the future, even if Prince Shang accepted him, his gender was enough to cause disdain in the world. Although he wasn’t afraid, he didn’t care but he didn’t want this young man to receive any unpleasantness, so he was the only one who could become the highest person. If Prince Shang accepted his decision in the future, he would have to walk a smoother path.
“Is Duke Qian declaring war on me?” Shang Wuxin’s voice was cold, “I can ignore any country you wish for, but if you want to intervene, then we can rely on our own abilities!”
Shang Wuxin’s hand that was placed in Nangong Qian’s hand closed around Nangong Qian’s neck, “It’s fine as long as the humble king doesn’t interfere with me. However, I will put it this way today. The State of Shang is not for the modest king to make a move!”
Nangong Qian watched as Prince Shang turned to leave, his voice laced with silent pain, “What if I do all this because I hope to obtain you?” He was both domineering and decisive. Even though he knew that Prince Shang would be as disgusted with him as he had been with him on that kiss, he still said it. He had never been a person who cared about love. Furthermore, he was about to leave the country of Shang. Nangong Qian knew he had to leave a mark in Prince Shang’s heart. Otherwise, he would not be able to recognize him the next time he met him.
Shang Wuxin halted slightly. Such an arrogant man’s voice carried a hint of pleading and unendurable pain as he spoke the world’s soul-stirring love words. It had to be said that Nangong Qian had done it, because at this moment, he had really left a mark on Shang Wuxin’s heart. It was a pity that he had never met this man before, but so what if he did, what kind of feelings could withstand the temptations of the destructive benefits of time?
Feeling Prince Shang’s sorrowful aura, Nangong Qian was even more distressed. What did this youngster’s thin and weak shoulders bear? What kind of dirty eyes had he seen that he could turn so cold?
“Nangong Qian!” Shang Wuxin’s voice was tired, “I am a man!” It was not that Shang Wuxin was deliberately deceiving Nangong Qian, but he had been living as a man for a long, long time in the future. Even if he was a woman, he would not depend on any man for survival.
“I know!” Nangong Qian smiled bitterly, “But so what if you are a man?” “Even if you’re a man, I still want you!” Because he had met Shang Wuxin, regardless of whether she was a man or a woman, she was still the person he loved from now on.
“Do not touch the State of Shang!” With that, Shang Wuxin left the tower, throwing the clothes she was wearing to Nangong Qian. Tonight, because of Nangong Qian’s words, she was truly shocked. Perhaps in the coming years, Shang Wuxin would think of every word that the arrogant man had said to her.
The obviously frail yet upright figure slowly descended the tower. Nangong Qian closed his eyes and said with a hoarse voice, “Shang Country, it’s yours!” “I won’t move!” Originally, he had wanted to take over Shang so that he could take over Prince Shang’s possession, but now he felt that this was Prince Shang’s country. This was Prince Shang’s influence, he could not bear to plunder what belonged to her no matter how well he could.
The chilly wind made Shang Wuxin’s robe flutter. It was not until after he walked down the stairs that he saw Leng Yufeng standing there motionless like a statue, his black robes blending with the night sky, the cold lines making him look inhumane.
Leng Yufeng looked at the Crown Prince’s pale face that was blown by the wind and unintentionally said, “Crown Prince, are you alright?” Far away, he couldn’t hear what the Crown Prince and the Philo-Prince were talking about, but he saw the Philo-Prince grabbing onto the Crown Prince’s hand, and the Crown Prince didn’t refuse. At that time, he was shocked, but at the same time, he was secretly happy in his heart, because if the Crown Prince was a man and a woman, Leng Yufeng felt that his chances of success would be much greater, but he didn’t think that a person like the Philo-Prince would fall in love with the Crown Prince.
“Nothing!” As Shang Wuxin and Leng Yufeng walked side by side, Shang Wuxin suddenly asked, “Yufeng, did you ever like someone?”
Shang Wuxin had already forgotten what it was like to like a person, or whether she really liked a person. It was as if a huge hole had been torn in her chest, and the cold wind blew through at all times, making her lose her heart and forget about a person’s feelings.
“Yes!” Leng Yufeng looked at the Crown Prince, who was much shorter than him. He had once thought that he admired the Crown Prince and found him interesting, but he never thought that he would fall in love with him.
“What does it feel like?” Shang Wuxin asked curiously.
Leng Yufeng’s heart ached as he looked at the confused crown prince. It would be a sad thing if a person didn’t even like him.
“If you can’t see her, you’ll miss her. If you see her, you’ll want to embrace her. Nothing in this world can be compared to a smile. You won’t be able to persevere because of this. Your world will become gorgeous with her …”
“Haha …” “What a complicated relationship …”
