The Captivating Crown Prince

Qing Kui was wearing a wedding robe as he stood at the entrance of the mansion, waiting for his bride. Even though his concubine had entered the mansion a long time ago, the princess consort was a woman that Qing Kui really liked, a cousin of Qing Kui.

What was surprising was that today, the emperor had also come to the crown prince’s mansion to host the wedding ceremony for Qing Kui. This was a ceremony that none of the princes had ever held before, and Qing Kui was even happier. Even though they knew that the Emperor doted on the Crown Prince, personally hosting the wedding made the ministers feel even more proud of their position as the Crown Prince.

“Is he here?” Although the Emperor was surprised to receive the letter from Shang, he also knew that each country was more or less related to each other. The current Shang Kingdom was even more powerful, and since the crown prince of Shang was coming to his country, which had been praised by everyone in Shang, the Emperor had no choice but to take a look.

“Your majesty, the carriage has already reached the capital. It won’t be long before it arrives!” The head eunuch immediately replied. It must be known that Prince Shang had been under their surveillance ever since he entered Weiguo country. However, Prince Shang had stayed in the carriage the whole time, which saved a lot of trouble for those who were watching him.

“The bride is here!” It was unknown who shouted this, but he saw that the bridal sedan had arrived in front of the door of Crown Prince Qing’s residence. Qing Kui’s face was filled with the joy of being a bridegroom. He quickly kicked the door of the sedan, pulling the bride out of the bridal sedan with the red silk cloth covering her head.

Di Kui pulled the bride into the main hall of the crown prince’s residence. Qing Emperor sat on the upper floor of the main hall, while dozens of tables were placed in the courtyard outside the main hall. The tables were filled with ministers and the ladies of the pavilion.

After all, Qing Kui was usually quite vicious and was considered an adult after he had married his first wife. The two of them had finished saluting the king when the bride was about to be sent to the bridal chamber.

“Crown Prince Qing’s marriage to an imperial concubine is truly a cause for celebration!” A melodious laugh that was slightly suppressed suddenly drifted over. It was cool and indistinct, as if it came from the distant horizon, causing everyone to unconsciously follow it.

The crowd only saw two people walking in, and the two men’s unequal figures, as well as their different auras, seemed exceptionally warm and harmonious under the gentle and brilliant sunlight, and under many astonished and dazed gazes, it was as if they were walking in their own world, beautiful like precious paintings.

However, when he saw the man beside Crown Prince Shang, he was even more shocked. He knew that Crown Prince Shang was coming for Qing Guo, but he didn’t expect that the King of Nangong Country would also come for him. Furthermore, it seemed that he had a good relationship with Crown Prince Shang, which was not a good sign.

“Emperor Qing, This King has specially come to congratulate Crown Prince Qing!” Nangong Qian stepped forward and slightly nodded his head as a form of greeting. Nangong Qian looked at the red robed Qing Kui. He thought to himself that Qing Kui’s actions were still too gentle. Otherwise, how could Qing Kui have gotten married?

It was only then that the crowd realized that this person was the Nangong Country’s famous King Qian. After sizing him up, they were even more astonished. Prince Qian was dressed in a purple robe as he welcomed the sun. His clothes fluttered in the wind, and his demeanor was graceful and luxurious. His face was like a sculpture, and he had a pointed angle.

“I congratulate you, Crown Prince, you have to have this beauty accompany you!” Shang Wuxin teased him before bowing slightly, “Wuxin greets the Emperor!”

If the crowd did not know who this man was just now, they would know that he was none other than the wise and wise Crown Prince Shang, Shang Wuxin of the State of Shang.

Everyone had heard too much about the rumors, so they were all curiously sizing up the Prince Shang who was in his presence for the first time. Everyone originally felt that the youth standing next to Prince Qian was too short before they could carefully look at him. However, after taking a closer look, they realized that the youth had long, dark hair that was casually tied behind him. Under the delicate and feminine eyebrows was a pair of captivating, deep black eyes. At this moment, the corners of the Emperor Qing’s eyes slightly raised, adding to his seductive charm. Her red lips lightly pursed into a faint smile. Her skin was whiter than snow, and it seemed to be slightly emitting a silvery white light. When the crowd saw this, they realized that Prince Shang’s appearance was not the slightest bit inferior to Prince Qian.

“It is a joyous occasion for Prince Qian and Prince Shang to be able to attend my son’s wedding! Come here, quickly show the two of you a seat! ” The Human Emperor smiled at the two of them.

The Emperors were around fifty years old. They were tall and sturdy with strong facial features. They had once galloped across the battlefield when the Emperors were young, so their bodies were sturdy. Their sideburns and beards had already been dyed with autumn frost. He sat at the head of the table, condescendingly looking down on Shang Wuxin and Nangong Qian. Although there was a smile on his face, his cold expression carried a sense of majesty. If it was a normal person, they would have been scared long ago.

Qing Kui looked at Prince Shang with some lingering fear. That day, he and Nangong Wen did not even send people to kill Prince Shang. However, on the way back to the country, they met with severe injuries from bandits and drank a lot of medicine to recover. Although it seemed that this matter had nothing to do with Prince Shang, Qing Kui still felt uneasy.

“Prince Shang and the Prince Qian came to attend my wedding. Why didn’t they say anything in advance so that I could take over?” Qing Kui was holding onto his bridal veil. He was wary of Prince Shang and Prince Qian coming uninvited. He sounded polite but there was also dissatisfaction in his voice.

“This crown prince has already written a letter to the Emperor of Qing, and there’s a friendship between Shang and Qing, so this crown prince should come and congratulate you as well!” The crown prince’s expression was unfathomable as he sat on his chair and watched Qing Kui, who had caused him to suffer a loss. Could it be that Crown Prince Qing does not welcome the State of Shang and the State of Nan Gong? ”

“Prince Shang is too much of a joke. This prince welcomes you to the extreme!” Qing Kui smiled coyly. At this moment, the bride couldn’t stand still anymore as Qing Kui held her hand and tugged on his sleeve. After all, the bride was standing here and it was awkward for everyone to forget about her.

Shang Bin looked at the bride under the veil, but before Shang could open his mouth, he heard a tender female voice, “Royal brother, can you show your imperial sister the beauty of your royal sister-in-law?”

If an ordinary family in Qing Country were to pay their respects to the new bride, they would reveal their cover to let everyone see the bride’s appearance. This could also be considered a form of ostentation for the groom. However, this was only the custom of ordinary people. As the Crown Princess, it was more or less a sin that the first person she saw on the wedding day was not the Crown Prince.

Qing Feng glared at this royal sister who was becoming more and more disobedient, and Emperor Qing also looked at his daughter who he had never paid attention to before. If it weren’t for the fact that this daughter was given to the Great General recently, the Emperor would not have let this ignorant daughter off with today’s matters.

“Princess Mu Yuan is right. This crown prince and Prince Qian travelled thousands of miles to attend Crown Prince Qing’s wedding! You must have seen the bride before!” Shang Bin smiled but Nangong Qian also nodded his head.

Emperor Qing saw that these two would be the future kings of the State of Shang and the State of Nangong and could not be easily offended. Otherwise, when the two of them joined forces, it would be very dangerous. What the Emperor did not know was that ever since Nangong Qian fell in love with Shang Wuxin, the State of Shang and the State of Nangong had already stood side by side.

Qing Kui looked at his father’s face and knew that he could not refuse. As the crown prince of many years, he had never felt this way before. Ever since he met this Prince Shang, he would always feel this way.

Qing Kui looked at the bride beside him who had her head covered. He removed the bridal veil, and instantly, congratulatory words of praise and congratulations rang out in the hall.

Shang Bin looked at the bride’s appearance, her soft and pretty face appearing very attractive. Although she was not considered beautiful, she was still a beauty, and her eyes were filled with shyness, making her look even more pitiful. In addition, her red clothes made her slim waist even softer, and her soft body moved like a willow in the wind, causing people to feel pity for her. It was a pity, a pity. Shang could not help but laugh, this kind of woman was going to be a widow in the future.

When Qing Kui saw that Prince Shang had set his eyes on his own princess consort, she was actually a bit shy. Suddenly, anger rose in her heart, and she pushed away the princess consort who was standing there, “Bring her back!”

A man’s love is like the wind. When I love you, I’m holding you. If you’re not proud of it, you’ll just become a plaything! However, Shang Bin had no intention to sympathize with the princess consort, and thus he turned a blind eye to her.

The emperor courteously spoke a few words of courtesy to Shang Wuxin and Nangong Qian before he left. Shang Wuxin and Nangong Qian were also invited to the banquet and coincidentally sat at the same table as Qing Mu Yuan. She had always felt that Prince Shang was like a big brother who saved her from danger, and that it had nothing to do with love, only a kind of faith.

The Great General, who was sitting beside Qing Mu Yuan, nodded at the two of them, “Prince Qian, Prince Shang!”

Shang unintentionally looked at the man and slightly moved his finger, because this man was touching the palm that was placed under the table by Qing Mu Yuan, and Qing Mu Garden was obviously resisting. Shang unintentionally picked up the wine and accidentally spilled it over there, wetting the general’s clothes.

The general was about to lose his temper, but Prince Shang didn’t dare to do so. He could only change his clothes and leave the table. The Green Wood Garden watched as the Great General left, and whispered to Prince Shang, “Thank you, Prince!” Although she was already dirty, she did not want the crown prince to see her in such a miserable state. She wished that she was a pure and innocent little girl in his eyes.

At this moment, Qing Kui had already arrived at this table, and the officials of the Qing Empire would naturally toast Shang Wuxin and Nangong Qian, the two of them had no way of refusing. Nangong Qian looked at the toasts given to him by the crowd. Although he was worried, he suppressed the doubts in his heart when he thought of the offer.

If it was a normal day, Shang Tong would never drink alcohol, but for some reason, he felt safe with Nangong Qian by his side. He actually drank wine, and it was because of Shang Bin’s trust that made her want to spit out blood afterwards.
