The Captivating Crown Prince

Chapter 173

“Oh, whose lady is this? She actually came to my place?” The old procuress smiled as she stood at the door. She saw a woman wearing a dark red dress and was about to rush into the Star Pavilion. She quickly stopped her, “Mom, I only have men in here. Why would women come in?”

This woman looked to be in her thirties, and although her face was not delicate, it was also very generous. She stood in front of the bawd. Although she looked angry, she still asked, “May I ask if Marquis Qi is in the building?”

A look of satisfaction flashed past his eyes. After waiting for so long, he had finally found the target. If he didn’t come, then he would think that he would have to find a way to attract the attention of the host.

“Lord Qi?” With a wave of the handkerchief in her hand, the woman retreated a few steps back due to the fragrance surrounding her. She looked at the room in shock and then smiled, “Marquis Qi is indeed in the building!”

“I’ve been driving this Star Pavilion for so many years, and it has always been a man who has entered. It’s not that I want to say, this lady is dressed elegantly, I’m afraid she’s the wife of a rich family. This is not the place that this lady should be!”

A few people had already looked at the voice, as it was coming from outside of the Star Pavilion. Therefore, there were quite a few people who came to watch the commotion and started to point fingers. As a bawd, the bawd didn’t care what kind of gaze she had never seen, but the lady was so embarrassed that she didn’t know what to do.

The maidservant behind the madame tugged at her sleeve, “Madam, the young master can’t wait!”

When the woman heard the servant girl’s words, she immediately said to the bawd, “I am the Madam of the Qi Marquis, the current Madam of the Qi Hou! Your son is currently in bed with a serious illness, but couldn’t find Master Hou. When he heard that Master Hou was here, he specially came to look for Master Hou! ” What Madam Qi did not say was that because of her weak character, everything that happened in the manor was controlled by the side madams. Since her son was currently sick and bedridden, she did not even have the right to find a doctor. As a mother, Madam Qi had spent her entire life trying to find him.

Everyone was surprised to hear that this lady was Madam Qi Hou. No one in the capital knew that she had been married to her husband for so many years and had not conceived a child until she was in her thirties. Furthermore, the child was born a boy who was no more than six years old.

Smiling Arts looked at the crowd and felt that it was shameful. After all, his own son was still bedridden while his father came to the brothel to play. This Qi Hou’s good reputation in the capital had probably been ruined.

“This… “Although I sympathize with Madam Qi, you know that this brothel …” Xiao Yi purposely said in a difficult manner. However, his eyes glanced at the attendant beside him. The attendant lowered his head slightly and quietly entered the Star Pavilion to head to the second floor’s private room. That was Qiu Yue’s private room.

“My child is really in danger right now. I can’t lose my child. I hope that mother can still make peace!” Madam Qi held the old procuress’s hand, and her eyes began to turn red. At this moment, she was no longer Madam Qi, but a mother who was worried for her son.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Yi seemed to be moved by her actions as he pulled Madam Qi’s hand, “This child has a big problem. Madam Qi, please follow me!” With that, he brought Madam Qi Hou into the Star Pavilion. However, what happened just now had already entered the eyes of many.

With a smile, he led Madam Qi to a room and said, “Then I can only help Madam Qi to get here!” After saying that, Madam Qi withdrew her grateful gaze. At the same time, Qiu Yue, who was in the room, secretly received an order. She looked at Qi Hou who was standing beside her with her head lowered and a bashful expression.

“I’ve heard that the marquis’ army is well-regulated. Although I’ve never seen Qiu Yue before, I know that the marquis must be a man who can support the heavens and earth!” Qiu Yue’s words made Qi Hou burst out in laughter. Qi Hou didn’t need to pretend to be humble here.

At this moment, the Madam Qi who was about to open the door was filled with pain. Her son was still on the sickbed without a doctor, but as the father, she was flirting with a brothel girl.

“Bang!” Madam Qi, who had been dignified for so many years, kicked open the door to the room, only to see her husband hugging a charming woman, holding a grape in his hand and sending it into the woman’s mouth.

Qi Hou was also frightened by the sudden voice. Qiu Yue, who was in his embrace, was even more terrified as she snuggled up against Qi Hou’s chest.

“What are you doing here? Is this a place you can come to? Get lost! ” Qi Hou saw that his wife, whom he hadn’t seen for who knew how many years, didn’t even look at her with a pleasant expression. She looked as if she had seen something disgusting.

Madam Qi suddenly kneeled on the ground, “Master Hou, the child is now severely ill and bedridden. He doesn’t even have a doctor!” Master Hou, I beg of you, find a doctor for this child. Otherwise, this child will really be in danger! ”

Although Qi Hou didn’t care much about his son, he still cared a little about him. However, looking at the open door of the room and the people outside pointing fingers, he felt a little awkward.

“If you want to find a doctor, then go ahead and find one. Why are you looking for me?” Am I a doctor? ” At the same time, Qiu Yue passed a cup of tea to Qi Hou with a gentle and understanding look. Qi Hou felt very comfortable with this look, but it was still too much for Madam Qi Hou to bear.

“You bitch!” Madam Qi could no longer resist and was ready to grab Qiu Yue. However, Qiu Yue was so frightened that she dodged Madam Qi’s slap, but tears still flowed from her eyes.

“Bring this bitch back to this marquis!” The Qi Hou pushed Madam Qi away. He didn’t even look at her as she crashed into the table. Instead, he went to Qiu Yue’s side to help her up.

Madam Qi saw herself being taken away by a few subordinates of the Qi Hou, but her husband, whom she once loved, didn’t care at all. The opportunity that had been lost for so many years … … At this moment, her heart no longer loved this man.

However, when Madam Qi returned to the mansion for a night, she nearly went mad because her only child had actually died of a serious illness on the sickbed, and her husband’s son’s father had actually arrived late after the death of his child. At this moment, no one knew how fierce Madam Qi’s heart was.

“Sister Huang, you broke into my residence without informing me. You’ve really made things difficult for me!” Shang Bin looked at Shang Shuangge who was standing not far away with a frosty expression. No matter what Shang Shuangge wanted to do, he would always be an enemy, and he would never be lenient towards his enemy.

However, when he was three steps away from Shang Wuxin, he stopped, thinking that there was a Huanmo Che standing in front of Shang Wuxin. Although Huanmo Che was smiling while looking at her, his smile was very weak and cold.

“Aren’t you going to invite this princess over?” Shang Xiange looked at Huan Mo Che, the veins on his hand were clearly visible from his sleeves. Yet, Huan Mo Che instinctively felt that he could not let Shang Shuangge get close to Shang Wuxin. As for why Huan Mo Che could not explain it clearly, he could only say that it was his intuition.

Shang was not in the mood to walk to the main hall, “Since royal sister is here, of course we have to take a seat. Otherwise, I would be disrespectful!” Since Shang had already entered the room, it was useless for her to chase her away. She also wanted to see what this royal sister wanted to do.

The four of them sat in the main hall, fearlessly serving cups of tea. Shang shallow song praised, “The Crown Prince’s residence is just not the same, even the tea brewed by this servant girl is fragrant. I wonder if this princess will have the good fortune to order more cups of tea in the future?”

“How can the tea brewed by a little girl from my palace be more expensive than that from my palace? Imperial Sis, please don’t tease me!” He was a little thirsty, so he finished the cup of tea in a short while. As for Huan Mo Che, he stood up naturally and poured Shang Bin a cup of tea.

Shang Xiange’s eyes dimmed as he watched Huan Mo Che’s natural movements. He immediately stood up and walked to the side of Huan Mo Che. Just as he was about to touch Huan Mo Che with his hand, he was dodged by Huan Mo Che, and Huan Mo Che’s face revealed a disdainful expression.

Even though he saw that the young master disliked Shang Liangge, he did not feel awkward at all. Instead, his face had an alluring charm to it, “Lord Left Premier is extraordinarily handsome, and your knowledge and literary skills are very few in the world. If this princess were to accept you as her consort, wouldn’t you say so?”

At the same time, Shang Shuangge also turned to look at Shang Wuxin. Their faces looked somewhat similar, but because of Shang Shuangge’s dress, her beauty was somewhat gorgeous, while Shang Wuxin’s face was more pure and spirited, and also because of the imposing aura around her body, it was a bit more dignified.

“Is Imperial Sis purposely provoking me?” Shang asked with a smile. After all, regardless of what other people were thinking outside, everyone placed the name ‘Illusory Mo Che’ under Shang Wuxin. Coupled with the fact that the Illusory Mo Che had always been living in the crown prince’s mansion, the rumours gradually became true.

Shang Xiange suddenly burst into laughter when he saw this kind of Crown Prince, “He’s just a man. Although I admit that Lord Left Premier is indeed very good, but Crown Prince, don’t you have General Leng here?”

Leng Yufeng did not have a good temper, he immediately stood up and said, “If the second princess continues to annoy the crown prince, this general would not mind throwing the second princess out of the mansion!” Only now did Leng Yufeng understand why his good friend hated the Second Princess so much. It was because the Second Princess was not only domineering and arrogant, but also carried a sense of evil.

Shang Liangge looked at the angry Leng Yufeng and then looked at Shang Wuxin. Indeed, Shang Wuxin was looking at Leng Yufeng with a smile in his eyes. It could be said that he was indulging Leng Yufeng, a general, in the Crown Prince’s Palace.

“Crown Prince, this General Leng and the Minister of the Left are both men of great talents. I wonder who is the most important to the Crown Prince?” It was only natural for Brother Shang Qian to act so brazenly to sow discord.

Although Leng Yufeng and Huan Mo Che’s expression did not change, their eyes unconsciously looked towards the crown prince, but Shang Wuxin did not give them a single glance. Huanmo Che quickly regained his senses and looked at Shang Xiange as he answered, “I and Yu Feng, regardless of who they are, are both people of the crown prince!”

Leng Yufeng’s face suddenly turned red. Although everyone knew what the crown prince was thinking, but he was still at a loss for what to do if he spoke carelessly like this. Leng Yufeng looked at the crown prince but did not see Shang’s look of disdain nor did he hear Shang’s voice of denial. He suddenly felt a surge of hope.

Shang Liangge looked at Huanmo Che and Leng Yufeng, and then suddenly made a very beautiful smile, “Good, you two are very good!” After that, they flew out of the crown prince’s residence. The secret guards wanted to stop them but did not want to be seriously injured by Shang Xiange.

“No need to chase him!” Shang exhorted the guard.

Leng Yufeng looked solemnly at the injured guards, “The martial arts of this second princess is even higher than we thought. She must have come with ill intentions to be able to hide her skills for so many years!”

Huan Mo Che also nodded in agreement. Moreover, he always felt that Shang Xiange was not interested in him, but …

Shang was not in the mood to squint his eyes, his mind filled with thoughts.
