The Captivating Crown Prince - Chapter 286
Chapter 286
Word by word, it struck on Qiuyi’s heart, yet it chilled Shang Wuxin’s cold eyes. The two of them looked at each other, their eyes filled with their own thoughts.
“Xin Er!” No! I don’t understand what you’re saying! I don’t know you at all, nor do I know any Emperor Shang. He was obviously panicking and did not dare to look at Shang’s face, but the words that came out of his mouth were clearly not his own.
Shang Bin looked at Qiuyi with disdain. It was fortunate that Emperor Shang did not see that look, otherwise, how sad would he be! She still remembered the time when she thought that the empress palace was filled with motherly love. She loved that feeling very much. Now, thinking about Shang Wu Xin, she felt nauseous …
His voice carried a hint of coldness, “Look, this face is similar to mine, but fortunately, I still inherited my father’s appearance, otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to cut my own face if I were to look at it in the mirror every day.”
Shang Wuxin was not joking. If she was so similar to Qiu Rongrong as if she was in an autumn smoky robe, she really could have done something as if her face had been cut off. Shang had no intention to do anything to others, and it was the same for himself.
Ever since she had left the palace, she had never seen her own daughter before. Now, she realized that her daughter was actually taller than her, and her peerless beauty was actually taller than her by quite a bit, but those eyes were too cold, so cold that they pierced the heart.
“Xin’er, you are my mother, right? Mother has her own difficulties!” Seeing that he could no longer hide the truth, Qiuyi’s eyes turned red. He cried and cried, even to the point of tears. Shang didn’t want to let go of his hand, fearing that the tears would burn his palm.
Shang Wuxin could see that the Qiuyan Robe was truly sad and guilty, but it was the real thing that hurt people the most!
“Mother? You think you’re worthy? My mother is the late Queen of Autumn. If one day you come to me, I might even recognize you! Right now, my father is the ruler of the nation of Emperor Shang and my mother is the wife of the Ye family, Yinyin. Shang was not in the mood to laugh. Mother? She didn’t even call her father, much less the emperor. How could this woman even be worthy of her mother!
“Difficult? I will not listen to a single word you’re trying to say. Not to mention you’re trying to do something, it’s not like you have anything to do with me! ” Shang Wuxin sneered, as if he was mocking the naivety of his autumn clothes. Then, he took a few steps back and leaned against the carved pillar, the cool pillar invading Shang Wuxin’s back freezing his heart.
“You …” QiuYan Yi looked at Shang Wuxin who was cold to the bone and felt both disappointment and heartache. With a hint of disappointment in his voice, he asked, “How can you be so rude?” Where has your upbringing been all these years? Is that what you should say to your mother? ”
She also understood why Qiu Rongrong was always so shameless. This was definitely an inheritance; this woman faced her with the attitude of a victim. If she was not the same Shang, she might really have been tricked.
“I didn’t come here today to listen to your gossip, but to tell you not to bother Aunty Yinyin, and not to threaten her with what you think is a weakness. If you dare to provoke her again, I don’t mind causing your daughter to lose her life!” Shang Wuxin said these words with a smile, but it was only for a woman who was not related by blood.
Yi Yin, who was standing outside the door, suddenly burst into tears. Was this child really that moved to death? Such a cold person, if you give her a heart full of sincerity, then what she gave you is not only true! Now she understood why the best men in the world loved her alone and would not let her go even if they shared it. It was because when this girl was cold she made people’s heart ache, but as long as she put you in her heart, you would no longer be able to escape.
She thought Shang had angrily asked her why she abandoned her, why she did not acknowledge her, and why she did not do so for the sake of others. How could she, her own mother, endure such maintenance?
“That is the Madam Boss of the Ye Family. How can you treat your mother like this for an outsider? I’m afraid the reason she’s by your side is because of your rights. You’re so old, why can’t you tell right from wrong? They were the ones who caused your little sister’s accident. You didn’t take revenge for your little sister, and instead said these words to your mother. Xin’er, you have truly disappointed your mother! ” Qiu Lianshan asked as he held his chest in disbelief.
“It seems that you did not take my words to heart. Then, let me say it again. If I know that you consider yourself my mother again, I will cut your tongue off! ” As expected, Shang was not in the mood to look at Qiuyi, instead he was looking at himself fearfully.
“If you want Qiu Rongrong to live, then stay far away from me, Aunt!” She had never minded killing too many people, not even a few. Even if it was to kill her mother, she could do it, but when she thought of her father, she could only tolerate it.
Fear flashed in Qiuyi’s eyes, along with his unintentional displeasure with Shang. Even if Qiuyi was truly a weak person, how could the empress who had been a queen for so many years only know how to cry and cry? Qiu Chuchu considered his words, and even though he tried his best to cover it up, he could still hear Shang’s unintentional discontent in his voice.
“Alright, since you’re unwilling to acknowledge me as your wife, then I won’t force you. One day, you will understand my difficulties!” As she spoke, she wiped her tears, but if that was really the case, how could she change her words so quickly?
“As long as you save Rongrong, I definitely won’t make things difficult for Madam Ye!” Qiu Chuchu swore solemnly. He spoke with only Qiu Rongrong in his eyes. Of course, Shang Wuxin did not feel sad for having such complicated feelings in his heart. Just like how there were so many princes and princesses in the imperial palace of the State of Shang, but Emperor Shang only regarded him as a person, this was just fate for everyone. As long as Qiu Rongrong did not disturb him, the autumn fumigation robe would not disgust him, and Shang Wuxin would not look at those troublesome matters with his eyes.
“I hope Madam understands. I can make Qiu Rongrong suffer a second time, so the damned person is already dead. Do you understand?”
Shang Wuxin could face Qiuyi in peace, but it was not necessarily for Emperor Shang to do so. Shang Wuxin hoped that the woman in Emperor Shang’s heart would always be there, and it was unavoidable that he would encounter such a truth. He did not want himself to ascend the throne so quickly, it was too tiring!
“You …” Qiu Smoke’s sleeve cursed, but when she saw Shang Wuxin’s dark eyes, she could not say anything. She could tell that Shang Wuxin really did do it. Thinking about her daughter who was still lying there today, she could not bear to part with her.
“Alright, as long as you cure Rongrong, I’ll definitely rot some secret to the pit of my stomach!” She had never raised this daughter of hers ever since she was young. Originally, she had felt somewhat guilty, but now, she felt that it was fortunate that she hadn’t raised her or else she would die from anger.
Shang Wuxin nodded his head, taking out a prescription from his sleeve and handing it over to Autumn Smoke Robe.
“How do you know this prescription is real?” I want you to swear a venomous oath! ” Qiuyi Yi said worriedly. Weren’t these people also saying that they would cure their own daughter? But now, it wasn’t the case.
Shang Wuxin fiddled with his hair and said with a smile, “Whether it is true or not, we will know after a try!” Of course, if you don’t believe in me, then I won’t care about her life or death.
The divine doctor’s prescription is so hard to come by. Since he’s already obtained the autumn lavender robe, why would he return it? With an apologetic tone, he said, “I was worried. After all, Rongrong is too painful. I believe that the crown prince isn’t someone to be trifled with!”
“Just remember what you said!” Shang Xin walked out of the room, wondering if the recipe was real. Other than Shang Xin and Ye Yi Zhe, the rest of them did not know, but so what if it was fake? Shang Wuxin had always been a vile character, a vindictive one at that.
As soon as Shang had walked out of the room, he saw Yi Yin standing there. She still looked the same as before, holding Shang’s hand and leaving the courtyard, ignoring the puzzled look of the mama behind her. After all, a woman holding the hand of a handsome young master looked very peaceful.
In the carriage, Shang Wuxin asked directly, “Auntie heard it all?” Some things were not hidden, but needed to be verified. Shang didn’t feel like the people around him should know what he had guessed today. Otherwise, if there were any mishaps in the future, how about it?
“Unintentional …” Yi Yin wanted to comfort her a little. After all, it was hard for a child to not be sad when it was like this. If it was before, she would hate that woman a lot.
“Aunty, there’s no need to say anything. I don’t have anything to be sad about. The fate of people in this world is very strange. Just like the relationship between me and my aunt, it would be better if she didn’t like me. Otherwise, I would have to shoulder another responsibility! ” Shang was not in the mood to explain.
Yinyin looked at Shang’s face and realized that he was not sad at all. It seemed that she was stronger than he had expected. That was why she was worried that Shang could be discouraged by Qiu Lianyi’s actions. But now, she decided that she had overthought things; Shang Wuxin might value friendship, but it was not the same for everyone. Only those who entered Shang’s mind could receive such treatment, and Qiu Lianyi was obviously not qualified.
“No matter what happens, Aunt will always stand on your side!” Yi Yin said with a smile. It was too late for her to love such a good child. Only a shallow and foolish woman like Autumn Smoke Robe would lose a pearl and take a sesame seed as a treasure …
