The Captivating Crown Prince

Shang Wuxin continued sleeping until she woke up naturally. Just as she got up, she saw Dauntless, Steward Hai and the other two who were walking in. They knelt together on the ground, “Crown Prince, happy birthday!” Although they wanted to hold a grand birthday celebration for the crown prince, it would be superfluous to cover the sky on New Year’s Eve.

It was only then that Shang Wuxin realized that today was her birthday. Smiling at the three of them, she told them to get up. Head Steward Hai went down to prepare breakfast, no, it was time for lunch, and Dauntless and fearless served the crown prince to change his clothes.

Head Steward Hai left the sleeping quarters and looked in the direction of the palace. Empress, the crown prince has finally grown strong. In the future, the crown prince will definitely protect him and this old servant will serve the crown prince well.

“Today’s New Year’s Eve banquet is tonight. At noon, Head Steward Hai ordered some dishes to be prepared for the crown prince to celebrate his birthday. What does the crown prince think of this?” They had secretly conducted this matter to give the crown prince a pleasant surprise, but they were afraid that he would be rejected.

Shang Wuxin nodded in agreement after putting on her clothes. How could she refuse Steward Hai and company’s kind intentions?

At that moment, Han Xuanhao walked into the bedroom on time. Looking at the crown prince, who had washed his face and rinsed his mouth, he picked up a comb and combed the crown prince’s hair. After brushing the crown prince’s hair, he took out a medallion from his bosom.

“This is the command medallion of the Frigid Star Pavilion. If you need the help of the Frigid Star Pavilion in the future, I can use this command medallion to command all the forces of the Frigid Star Pavilion in the capital, and the forces of the Frigid Star Pavilion are in every Star Tower!” Han Xuanhao smiled as he spoke. This was his secret as well as his trump card. It could be said that if he were to hand this over to the crown prince, it would be equivalent to handing his life over to the crown prince.

Shang Wuxin did not take the token. As long as she took it, she would take Han Xuanhao’s life. Moreover, she knew how Han Xuanhao loved her these days, but even if she was at a loss because of it, not hating Han Xuanhao did not mean she was in love with him. Furthermore, she might not have the heart to fall in love with a man. However, she still wanted Han Xuanhao to stay by her side for her own benefits as well as for her own warm heart.

“Unintentional! Happy Birthday!” Han Xuanhao placed the crown prince by his side and opened his white palm to place the medallion on his palm. “I am a member of the crown prince’s family, how can I hide my private property? As long as the crown prince treats me well today, it will be fine!”

Han Xuanhao deliberately teased the Crown Prince out of fear that he would refuse. He had not only given these to the Crown Prince for his birthday, but he had also used a bit of his mind to give them to the Crown Prince as a token of his sincerity.

“Xuanhao …” Shang Wuxin frowned, “Why are you doing this?”

A smile appeared on Han Xuan’s peerlessly beautiful face. It was like tens of thousands of blossoms blooming in an instant, filling one’s heart and mind. Even her long and narrow eyes were filled with stars. “Because my heart is here, everything I do is worth it.” “No heart, don’t refuse, just treat it as a birthday present, alright?”

Shang Wuxin frowned as she looked at Han Xuanhao’s obvious rejection. Han Xuanhao could not bear it any longer and walked out, he did not want to take the medallion back, so he could only escape. As he rushed out of the door, he said to the crown prince, “Xuanhao gifting Wuxin is unintentional, I did not take it back!”

Shang Wuxin looked helplessly at Han Xuanhao as he walked out of the bedroom, sighing and keeping the token in her hand. She had thought that Han Xuanhao was a man like water, but she had never expected him to be so stubborn.

“The Crown Prince …” Dauntless stepped forward and said hesitantly, “If it was before, the Crown Prince would have accepted it for sure. It is a great power, but the Crown Prince …” He didn’t know if it was a good thing for the Crown Prince to change. When she was with him, he didn’t seem popular at all, but now he was hesitating to send himself to be used by the Crown Prince. That meant he was different in his eyes.

Shang Wuxin prepared to walk out of the room, but he stopped and regained his composure, “Because a person cannot be considerate. Once you have a heart, you will have flaws, and you will become emotional!” Shang Wuxin did not know whether he was speaking to Dauntless or to himself.

By the time Shang Wuxin reached the hall, there were already six people seated at the table: the red-clothed Han Xuanhao, the blue-clothed Huan Fa Che, the black-clothed Leng Yufeng, the white-clothed Ye Yizhe, and the purple-clothed Nangong Qian, along with the dazzling Nangong Lian who was looking at the man.

Nangong Lian swore that all the peerless men she had thought of in this life were sitting here. Even though she did not adore any of them, it seemed that Nangong Lian still wanted to drool at such a beautiful appearance. If a girl accepted these five people, it would be on behalf of the heavens.

Han Xuanhao knew that the crown prince had accepted his medallion when he saw him walk in. When he thought of this, Han Xuanhao felt a sense of relief, but at the same time, joy welled up in his heart.

After each of them nodded, Shang Wuxin sat down. The usually sumptuous but only a few dishes were now covered with delicacies. Even the tables were patched together, and the dishes on them were extremely luxurious.

The five immediately stood up and picked up their wine glasses, “Congratulations for your happy birthday!”

Shang Wuxin rose as well. However, it was not the wine cup that she picked up, but the teacups and the five men gestured. They all knew that the crown prince did not care if he drank or not, and they did not wish for him to touch the wine.

However, at this time, Fearless went up and pulled Nangong Lian away. Originally, Nangong Lian was unwilling, but Fearless said in Nangong Lian’s ear, “Lin Jia Er and I have a few tables in the kitchen. Let’s go gather together!”

Upon hearing the name Lin Jia Er, Nangong Lian’s eyes lit up and she left without saying goodbye. There were no servants in the hall, only Shang Wuxin and the other three people sitting there.

Ye Yi Zhe looked at the Crown Prince and realized that the matter that happened that day really didn’t seem to happen. He took out the medallion and handed it to the Crown Prince, “This is the medallion of all the shops owned by Yizhe. In the future, if the Crown Prince goes anywhere, he can visit my shop!”

Although Shang Wuxin’s face was the same as Han Xuanhao’s, he was actually a little bit embarrassed. However, in front of the silver taels, Shang Wuxin shamelessly accepted the token.

Seeing that the Crown Prince had kept the medallion, Ye Yi Zhe’s sweaty palms loosened. He felt that he had been overly nervous.

Originally, the gifts he had prepared were very ordinary, but they were all made with the utmost care. But now that he had changed his mind, he directly gave the badge of the Tower Lord of the Under Heaven Pavilion to the crown prince.

Shang Wuxin accepted the token without any burden. As an outsider, Shang Wuxin had always upheld the principle of not taking advantage of the bastards, he must improve his character by taking advantage of them.

Nangong Qian looked at the presents that others had given him. Originally, he had planned to give his present at this time in the evening, but now he had decided to give it away all at once. He took out a black box from his sleeve and handed it to Prince Shang, “A small gift, I hope you like it!”

Actually, this gift was very important. It also contained a deep chill, but that was not important. What was important was that he knew who this gift should be given to and that only Prince Shang was worthy of this gift.

Shang Wuxin opened the box curiously, and when he saw the short but glowing dagger lying in the box, Shang Wuxin’s eyes lit up. What a sharp dagger! Even without holding the dagger in his hand, he could already feel the chilling cold. At first glance, Shang Wuxin had liked the dagger.

Seeing that Prince Shang liked Nangong Qian’s dagger, the corner of his mouth curled up. This dagger and his dagger were actually a pair, but the world did not know that. Moreover, this dagger was a weapon forged by two people who were in love with each other, and he had never wanted to give these two weapons to anyone else, but now he felt that this dagger had finally found its master.

Holding the dagger in his hand, Shang Wuxin laughed, “It is indeed a good weapon!” As she finished speaking, she placed the dagger on her body. She had been lacking a suitable weapon, but now it was so easy to obtain. Shang Wuxin nodded, not only to Nangong Qian, but also to the crowd, “Thank you!”

Having received the gift, Shang Wuxin was in a good mood, and her lunch was served more frequently. Although Shang Wuxin did not want to go to tonight’s New Year’s Eve banquet, he could not refuse it even if he thought about the lonely Emperor Shang, but he did not know if anyone would be willing to give up their lives for tonight’s New Year’s Eve feast!

“Will Nangong attend tonight’s New Year’s Eve feast?” Shang Wuxin asked.

“We have already submitted the letter of credence to Emperor Shang, so of course we will go tonight!” Nangong Qian said. He came to Shang Country for the sake of Prince Shang. If Prince Shang went to the palace, why would he still be staying at the crown prince’s mansion?

“Enough!” At first, Han Xuanhao was the one who served him the food, then Leng Yufeng was the one who served him the food, and the five of them were the ones who served him the food as if it was a competition.

The five of them looked at the food in the crown prince’s bowl with embarrassment. Since when did they become so childish? The five of them immediately took back the food they had picked up and ate it without a care for their cleanliness. A birthday feast passed in a friendly but harmonious atmosphere.
