The Captivating Crown Prince

Chapter 155

The Triennial Imperial Examinations had already begun. The crown prince was personally overseeing it, while Minister Bai and the Left Minister were there as well. This year’s Imperial Examinations were the most rigorous ones that had been seen in many years; there had never been a Crown Prince, Prince, Prime Minister, or Minister who had all taken the Imperial examinations at the same time.

The black robed crown prince was valiant and imposing. Although his handsome face was a bit feminine and delicate, there was a fierce and sinister air coming from between his brows. His pair of eyes were extremely bright, and the cold light that flickered out from his black gem-like eyes seemed to be deep and unfathomable as they constantly sized up the rows of students who had come to take the examinations.

The Minister of the Left, who was standing beside the Crown Prince, walked in with a light footsteps. He was wearing a black brocade robe with blue borders. It was a pretty boy. Her face was like a jade crown, her eyes were like stars, and her brows were neither thick nor light. Her long and narrow eyes were clear and cold.

As the Minister of the Left, he should be following the crown prince as well as the fourth prince and Minister Bai, but today, he was walking beside the crown prince. The crown prince was not displeased about this, and everyone was enjoying the sight of the two walking side by side.

“Crown Prince!” The majority of these students were children from poor families, and they all felt a sense of gratitude and longing when they saw the crown prince. This was because the crown prince and the others were only able to sit here and express their ambitions, and in a way, the crown prince’s actions were their joy, but to the children of officials, their hatred for the crown prince was so great that even their teeth ached. They were all determined to take the Imperial Examinations, but this year, they were all trembling in fear.

With no mood to sit in a high position, with Huan Mo Che and Minister Bai Mo Shu by his side and the Fourth Prince by his side.

The sound of the wind rose from Shang’s wide right sleeve. Looking down at the tables and chairs, he saw a group of students dressed in white. Shang was not in the mood to be pleased. “The Imperial Examinations shall begin now!”

The students stood up and returned to their seats. Each and every one of the guards was giving out questions, and the ones who were distributing papers and even the ones who were safe for the Imperial Examinations were actually the Blood Sang Army. The entire exam grounds quieted down, but this silence did not last for more than half a quarter of an hour.

“How could this be?”

“How are the questions different?”

From time to time, the disbelieving voices of the students rang out as Shang Wuxin sat on the high seat and looked at those officials’ students with a sinister gaze. Huan Mo Che also revealed a smile that was like the spring wind, while Minister Bai looked down at the clamoring students and revealed a disappointed smile, while the fourth prince looked at the crown prince with a complicated expression.

Every year during the Imperial Examinations, there would always be people who would sell the questions beforehand. Although this matter wasn’t known to the public, many people knew about it in private. Shang had warned everyone not to touch their bottom line, but did not expect to see people selling the exam questions. But what they didn’t know was that there were two copies of all the exam papers. One was given to the officials below for safekeeping, and the other was given to Illusory Dream Che for safekeeping. Shang had not expected that the questions would be sold earlier, so today’s exam papers were actually another one. None of the questions that those people had spent so much money to buy were of any use.

A student wearing a white jade crown looked at the exam paper in his hand and his lips turned white. He tore the exam paper in front of him into pieces and could not help but shout out, “Why is it different? You lied to me, I will kill you all! ”

A child who had been spoiled by his family could not bear even the slightest bit of frustration or suffering.

Shang Wuxin sat there like a noble king, watching every word and action of every man below. His lips were slightly curled up, cold and gorgeous, but there was no smile in his eyes. His pale lips emitted a clear and cold “Kill!”

Just as the crown prince finished speaking, the head of the irritable student was chopped off by the Snow Sang Army.

His bloodied head rolled on the ground, rolling all the way to the feet of a student. The student stood up in fright and wanted to shout out in fear, but seeing the guard holding his sword trembling in fear, he didn’t dare to make a sound.

The headless body of the student fell to the ground, his blood splattering everywhere. These students had never seen such a scene before. Many of them were so scared that they couldn’t hold their pens even before taking the exam. Bai Shangshu looked at the crown prince who was sitting there smiling, not sure if he should feel gratified or have a headache.

“Murder!” Some of the officials were sitting on chairs on both sides of the table, and they were sweating because of the Crown Prince’s methods.

“I have said before that cheating is not allowed. It looks like many people take my words as a passing thought. However, I don’t mind using some blood to remind everyone of my words! ” Shang Tong was not in the mood to say anything as he saw the Snow Sang Army leaving the examination hall, holding the headless body in one hand and the head in the other.

Shang carelessly stretched out his finger. “This one!” This! “This …”

As the direction in which the Crown Prince pointed was being dragged out of the examination hall by the Xue Shang Army, some officials, unable to bear the sight of the situation, heard the Crown Prince’s order, “Investigate for me how these people know about the test and they can be punished!”

These students who had been pulled out were the ones who had been surprised and dissatisfied when they received the test papers. Shang was not in the mood to notice from the beginning that not only did she need to catch these students, she also needed to find the official behind the scenes who sold the questions.

After the massacre just now and the capture of some students, the atmosphere in the examination hall became somewhat strange. The fourth prince frowned and said, “Crown Prince, does doing this affect the mood of the remaining students? This is too inappropriate!”

Some of the students were so frightened that their faces had turned pale. Hearing the fourth prince’s words, they also agreed. They had come to the Imperial Examinations to test for their titles, but the Crown Prince’s methods had scared them away and made them even more nervous.

It was clearly spring, but the Illusory Mo Che holding the fan didn’t even have a bit of peace with himself. Illusory Mo Che looked at the students below and said, “As an official of the State of Shang, not only does one need talent and a tenacious spirit, if one can’t even see this little thing, then what can one do after entering the imperial court? And how can one guard one’s heart and become a good official that is clean and honest for the nation?”

When the students heard this, they all calmed down and started to write. Those who had a bad temper were strong and calm. Shang was not in the mood to look down at the people below with any attitude. After he finished speaking, he looked towards the crown prince who was sitting beside him. Although he really wanted to act like Han Xuanhao, he couldn’t sit out there. He could only glance at the students below from time to time before secretly looking at the crown prince.

Along with the crown prince, there were about a dozen overseers. Putting aside the guards who were standing around the examination hall, there were also those who stood in a circle surrounding the examination hall, so Shang’s interest was piqued at first, but after a while, he realized that they looked like a mass of black heads and constantly moving brushes. Thinking that the Imperial Examinations were held every three days for one day, Shang’s eyebrows creased, and feeling that he didn’t want to come at all for the next two days.

When he saw the Crown Prince sitting beside him, his eyes started to narrow and his head couldn’t support itself any longer. From time to time, he would give a light chuckle. Looking at the buried students and the carefully supervising officials below, Huan Mo Che gently placed the crown prince’s head on his shoulder.

One of them sat straight while smiling, while the other occasionally stretched out his arm and embraced the youth leaning on his shoulder. The other one closed his eyes and relaxed as he leaned against the youth as he slept, a man and a woman might have thought that it was nothing, but because the officials and students that the two men originally raised their heads to look at were all very surprised, even Shang Chen was a little dazed, while the fourth prince’s eyes only flashed intensely for a moment before revealing a complicated smile.

Time passed by while Shang shamelessly slept, but today, all the smiles on Huan Mo Che’s face did not disappear, his whole body was emitting a pink aura, if he noticed that someone was looking at him and the crown prince strangely, Huan Mo Che would intentionally cover up the crown prince’s sleeping face.

“Unintentional?” It is almost time to finish the test. If he does not wake up soon, it will be bad for the crown prince’s reputation and reputation. Huan Mo Che endured the pain in his heart and gently patted the crown prince on the back, “Wake up? The exam is almost over! ”

Shang Wuxin opened his eyes, seeing that the fragrance had already burnt through a large portion of his body, he knew that he had actually slept through half a day leaning on Huan Mo Che’s shoulder. The moment he woke up, Shang Wuxin felt a little hungry. Rubbing his neck, Huan Mo Che’s shoulder looked a little thin, but it took Shang Wuxin a whole day to realize how reliable this shoulder was when he leaned on it.

When the crown prince left his shoulder, the weight of the crown prince was no longer on his shoulder, the smell of the crown prince was no longer on his side, and the crown prince’s breath was no longer on his neck.

“Time’s up!” “Collect the papers!” Shang was not in the mood to look at the burnt incense and ordered. The Xue Shang Army immediately came to the examination hall and directly collected all the papers. Then, they used the title of something to send them to a special place in the palace for examination.

One by one, the students left the examination hall, leaving only the examiners behind. The examiners were exhausted from not eating and drinking all day long. Shang Tong waved his hand and everyone left, including President Bai.

Huan Mo Che didn’t want the crown prince to see the difference and so he stood up, but the coordination of his entire body was very strange.

The entire exam grounds was left with Blood Shang Army members. Shang Wuxin pushed down the standing Huan Mo Che, and then placed his small hand on Huan Mo Che’s shoulder. Huan Mo Che was about to stand up in shock, but was stopped by the crown prince.

When Shang Xin’s mindless little hand gently massaged Huan Mo Che’s shoulder, Huan Mo Che’s entire body stiffened.

“Relax!” Shang Wuxin lightly patted the back of Huan Mo Che and continued to massage him as Huan Mo Che relaxed. Shang Wuxin simply did not know how to massage him and could only casually press down to let his blood flow.

Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine that such a cold and solitary person would actually give him a massage. At this moment, he felt like he was dreaming, but the obvious feeling on his shoulder made him realize that this was not a dream. He realized that ever since he came back from that day when he was heavily injured and allowed the crown prince to torture his wounds, the attitude the crown prince had towards him had slightly changed. He felt that if he was in the past, the crown prince would definitely not have done such a thing.

Huan Mo Che did not know why, and Shang Wuxin also did not know why. When she felt sleepy, Huan Mo Che gave her a shoulder, and she did not refuse. She slept very well on this unfamiliar shoulder. When she woke up, she realized that in order to make herself sleep very well, Huanmo Che had almost not moved at all. She felt a burst of surprise in her heart and at the same time did this kind of thing.

“I’m done!” Huan Mo Che’s slender hand covered Shang Wuxin’s hand, and the two of them were stunned at the same time. Huan Mo Che immediately withdrew his hand, and stood up: “Hug, I … I didn’t do it on purpose! ” The hand under his sleeve shook slightly. The crown prince’s hand was really small.

Shang didn’t mind at all. His current self was slowly changing under the influence of the people around him. He wouldn’t want to kill anyone who touched him like he once would, but this was only a person he recognized.

It was already dark outside by the time they walked out of the examination hall. The two of them did not ride in a carriage to return to the Crown Prince’s Palace on foot; after all, they had been walking all day and it was not bad to go back. Fortunately, it was night and no one paid much attention to their appearances.

However, just as the two of them were preparing to not return to the crown prince’s mansion for dinner tonight, they met a person that both of them found very surprising.

The moment Huan Mo Che and Shang Wuxin entered the restaurant, they saw the man and woman opposite of them preparing to leave. Their four eyes looked at each other in shock.

Shang was not in the mood to look at Leng Zi, who he had not seen for a long time. Leng Zi had lost a lot of weight and lost a lot of weight, and her childish face had also turned into a dimple. Because she did not have a smile, her clear eyes seemed to be clouded by the vicissitudes of life.

The Leng Ning Tian who was standing beside Leng Zi had a lot of changes in her demeanor, she was wearing an emerald-and-flower dress as she took a step forward, the pearl tassels down, taking advantage of her elegant and soft face, she lowered her head, her eyebrows almost touching the painting, she looked like a noble lady, but Shang didn’t care, he knew that Leng Ning Tian was just a concubine, her body shouldn’t be as good as being bullied, but the impulsive woman seemed to be able to endure it now.

“This is too …” The two were about to speak when they were stopped by Huan Mo Che. After all, if others were to find out their identity, not only was it a matter of safety, even eating wouldn’t be peaceful. Shang Tong only glanced at the two of them once before he and Huan Mo Che followed the shopkeeper to the best room.

Leng Zi looked at the crown prince that she hadn’t seen for a long time before she realized how much she missed him. It was obvious that a man was in love with a man, but it was this young man who destroyed all her love so that she would never have the chance to touch him again.

Leng Ning was mesmerized by the figure of Huan Mo Che, but revealed a sinister look of jealousy when she looked at the figure of the crown prince. What had she done wrong? Why would the crown prince want to destroy her? The Crown Prince must be jealous of him, jealous that he was a woman, and even if the Crown Prince had the rights, how could the Crown Prince possibly think that it was impossible for him to get Huanmo Che! He thought about how he was now a concubine in the Leng Clan, and how Leng Zi had completely disregarded him as a human being, turning from a young lady of a pavilion into a concubine that everyone could humiliate. This was all given to him by the crown prince, one day, he would make the crown prince pay!

Leng Zi followed and looked at Leng Zi with disdain, these men were truly despicable, to think that they would like a disgusting crown prince if they didn’t like such a delicate woman, but it didn’t matter, because even Master Fantasy would definitely be his.

Of course, Shang Bin and Huan Mo Che had noticed the two people following behind them, but Shang Gong felt very hungry so he didn’t pay much attention to these. Therefore, once the dishes were served, they started to eat, while Huan Mo Che occasionally helped Shang along.

“I’m sorry!” Leng Zi watched as the two finished their meal before speaking up.

The former Leng Zi was too naive and naive, making people feel disgust for him. However, Huan Mo Che did not expect Leng Zi to actually poison the crown prince, if not for the fact that the crown prince did not have any killing intent, he would have taken care of Leng Zi long ago.

“What did you do wrong to me?” Shang was not in the mood to ask. If an ordinary person had let him down, he would definitely let them down too.

Leng Zi was speechless, seeing that the Crown Prince had left the restaurant painlessly, even Leng Xiangtong, who had followed him here, had forgotten to bring him back.

“Crown Prince!” Young Master Fantasy! ” Leng Ning looked at Tian Lengzi with excitement in her heart, as she bowed to him weakly, from time to time she would even look at him with eyes like a little white rabbit.

The two of them ignored him. In Shang’s eyes, she did not care about his cold and peaceful ways. Moreover, it was most painful for such a woman to let her live a humble life.

Seeing how the two of them ignored the cold smile on their faces, he looked worried, “Young Master Fantasy, how is cousin doing at the border? It’s been a while since I last saw cousin, and I wonder how he’s doing! ” Leng Tiantong knew the relationship between Leng Yufeng and Huan Mo Che. Since he had ignored him, he might as well find another topic for himself.

“Wuxin, are you going back to the manor now?” He could tell that the crown prince was a little tired today. Although he really wanted to walk in the darkness with the crown prince, even that was not as important as the crown prince’s body.

Shang Wuxin nodded, and the two of them walked past Leng Jingtian and out of the restaurant.

“Do we need to deal with this coldness?” Huan Mo Che felt a sinister gaze from behind him.

Shang Wuxin shook his head, “Some people I prefer to kill directly, some people I prefer to torture slowly!”

Illusory Mo Che looked at the crown prince and laughed. He seemed to be getting closer and closer to the crown prince.
