The crowd only saw that Childe Huan was holding General Leng and Crown Prince (Shang Wuxin) stood up and looked at General Leng with worried eyes.

Under the gaze of the onlookers, Shang Wuxin came to Leng Yufeng and supported Leng with her hands, but as she touched his shoulders, she felt her hand wet immediately. Shang Wuxin looked down and she found that her white fingers had already been dyed red.

Shang Wuxin glanced at Leng Yufeng and took her hands off him. At the moment, Leng Yufeng’s expression was still grim. Then Shang Wuxin couldn’t understand him, as he sometimes would be cool but sometimes would be like a big boy.

Shang Wuxin wanted to leave here because she was tired of the boring banquet. However, being the Crown Prince, she didn’t have enough reasons nor enough achievements that could allow her to leave casually, so, she thought of Leng Yufeng’s injuries, which although wasn’t serious, could be used as an excuse to leave and could help her force a showdown. She planned to let Leng Yufeng pretend to feel uncomfortable, and then she could continue to do other things. However, she didn’t expect that Leng Yufeng should have used his internal power to get his wound that was not yet scabbed opened.

The crowd had been initially focusing on the people sitting above, and they were stunned when they saw the blood on Crown Prince’s hand. Even Emperor Shang sitting on the top stood up from the throne and asked, “What happened to General Leng? Are you hurt?”

Shang Wuxin had slightly put down her hand that was stained by blood and pulled back the other hand that supported Leng Yufeng and said to Emperor Shang, “I encountered an assassination attempt on my way to the capital. I was in too poor health to withstand it myself, and thanks for the protection of General Leng and Childe Huan, I could be safe and sound. Unfortunately, there were so many enemies that General Leng was wounded by them!”

Shang Wunxin intended to let everyone here know that someone attempted to assassinate her. No matter what she had done, she still occupied the position of Crown Prince. And the people present were not unsophisticated, they could easily figure out who dared to assassinate Crown Prince, let alone there were countless cases in history that brothers in palace killed each other.

“I’m fine!” Leng Yufeng stood up and said, “It’s my responsibility to protect Crown Prince. I just feel pity that our Crown Prince suffered a lot for many people want to assassinate him.”

Emperor Shang looked down at Leng Yufeng with sparkling eyes, which made Leng Yufeng feel strange. Shang Wuxin nodded to the Emperor Shang and said, “In order to protect me, General Leng was injured. I’d better accompany and heal him!”

Then Shang Wuxin led the way and left the hall. And Huan Mochen shouldered the responsibility of supporting Leng Yufeng with his hands. Therefore, the most important three people all left.

Seeing that the three had left the palace, Emperor Shang looked at his several sons, and burst into laughter out of extreme anger, “Assassination?” All the princes felt frightened at the same time. But at this moment, Duke Qing, who held great power in the empire, stood out.

“The bandits are too rampant! How could they dare to assassinate the Crown Prince and defy Your Majesty!” Duke Qing, a man above fifty, wore a dark green official robe and stood straight, his eyes full of murderous look.

Emperor Shang’s angry eyes became slashing in a flash, but he didn’t continue to investigate these things. While the others couldn’t understand why Emperor Shang gave up pursuing the issues, Eunuch Xu, standing beside Emperor Shang, got that Emperor Shang had taken great pains.

Shang Wuxin, Leng Yufeng and Huan Moche left the palace in a carriage. The wheels of the carriage kept moving and making sounds, which sounded clearly to the people inside.

“Why you did that?” Shang Wuxin took out the medicine and some other necessities from the carriage and asked Leng Yufeng, who didn’t say a word since they came out the palace. Although the man sitting in front of her got injured for her again, Shang Wuxin didn’t feel guilty or flattered at all. Her ruthlessness was really disappointing!

Leng Yufeng looked at the Crown Prince sitting opposite and felt he returned to the time when Leng first saw the brilliant teenager with lightsome eyes like clouds. But such a pair of sparkling and crystal-clear eyes were shrouded in the mist for years which in turn made them look like pure and elegant, mysterious and deep, dim and obscure. For the moment, Leng Yufeng realized that he could no longer look at the Crown Prince as he did before, because he had hidden so many things in his heart that he couldn’t tell anybody.

“Because my Crown Prince wanted to leave the imperial banquet and let the crowd know the ambitions of the other princes!” Leng Yufeng replied. It seemed that after he met the Crown Prince, he learned how to explain to this teenager, even he didn’t need to say anything in most cases. At that time, as he knew the Crown Prince’s purpose, he decided to directly get his wound reopened. He was clear that it could work if he just pretended to feel uncomfortable, but the others would doubt that, so, this was the best way.

Shang Wuxin didn’t say a word of thanks but stared at Leng Yufeng’s clothes. Leng Yufeng’s neck became red as he recalled the scene that the Crown Prince bound up his wound for him, which made his heart stirred. Afterwards, he had thought of the scene for many times, but he didn’t expect that the scene would happen again.

Looking at these two people, Huan Moche felt sad. He forced a smile and said, “I have other things to do, so I’d better leave first!” Then he opened the curtains and got off the carriage. He was afraid that he would do something irreversible if he continued to stay here. He was confused, really confused that why Crown Prince always neglected him.

Shang Wuxin didn’t care at all about Huan Moche’s sudden departure. As to Shang Wuxin, if Huan Moche hadn’t been helping her all the time, just for Huan Moche’s eyes, she would have killed him. For the moment, she couldn’t kill him but could neglect him.

However, Leng Yufeng knew very well what happened to his good friend—Huan Moche was jealous of him.

“Take off your clothes!” Shang Wuxin, holding the medicine and a strip of cloth in her hands, said seriously. And she was serious indeed. Even she didn’t want to acknowledge Leng Yufeng’s help, but he had really helped her.

Leng Yufeng’s neck became red; then he took off his robe and tops. Although Shang Wuxin had already appreciated Leng Yufeng’s good figure once before, she couldn’t help heaving a sigh in her heart that handsome men could also make a person obsessed; after all, a man looked like Leng Yufeng was indeed a feast for the eyes.

Shang Wuxin applied medicine on Leng Yufeng’s wound first and then dressed it. During the process, they got close to each other inevitably, for which Shang Wuxin didn’t feel a thing, while Leng Yifeng was hiding the wonderful feeling of the moment in his mind carefully.

After that was finished, Shang Wuxin glanced at Leng Yufeng and said, “General Leng, I think it’s time for you to go back to your mansion!” As she had already left the Imperial Palace, she would like to burn the bridge after crossing it.

Leng Yufeng, who became more and more faithful to Crown Prince, didn’t feel annoyed at all about what Crown Prince had said. He nodded and got off the carriage. However, after Leng Yufeng left, Wu Ju walked to the carriage and got on. He handed a clean handkerchief to Shang Wuxin. Shang Wuxin took it, wiped her hands, and said, “Return to the mansion!”
