The Captivating Crown Prince
The Captivating Crown Prince - Chapter 339

Chapter 339

“I can confirm that Prince Shang is a woman!” Qiuyi Yi was wearing a veil as he stood on top of the hunting grounds.

With each step he took, the hem of his skirt would move along with him, like the ripples on the surface of a blue sea. Gu Qingqing was like a fairy from the sea, elegant and refined. She did not dare to look at Emperor Shang, nor did she dare to look at Shang Wuxin who was sitting there. She only knew that she had to tell him what her daughter had told her.

Emperor Shang was only temporarily deceived by Shang. How could such a woman inherit the throne? She did not do anything wrong; she was abandoning her own emotions to save the entire Shang Kingdom.

“Who are you? Just based on what did you say, we can prove the authenticity of the crown prince! ” A military general stood up and berated loudly. His voice was very loud and at the same time, there was some excitement in his voice. That was why the Autumn Smoke Robe that stood there was clearly trembling.

QiuYan Yi raised his head and looked at Shang Wuxin. She felt that if Shang didn’t come to her for punishment, she, too, would let Shang Wuxin off for the sake of the mother and daughter pair. But what did she see?

The young man sitting there, no, the woman looked down on him like a god high above, the way she looked at him without any disdain or fear, as if she was looking at a speck of dust. No! How could she look at him like that? Qiuyi tried her best to look towards Shang Wuxin, but upon closer inspection, she discovered that her eyes were as deep as the abyss of hell. Demons, this isn’t the daughter she gave birth to, this is a demon!

Qiuyi Yi took off the veil covering her face, causing some people to immediately gasp in alarm. It wasn’t because of her beauty, but because some old officials recognized her as the same woman as before.

“I am Qiuyi, the wife of Emperor Shang, Empress Qiu! Shang Wuxin is my daughter by birth, no one knows better whether she is a man or a woman! ” Qiuyi Yi mustered up the courage to look up at Emperor Shang, only to see a pair of extremely sorrowful eyes. Her heart was a bit flustered. She felt that something was slowly losing and she couldn’t hold on to it!

Even if Emperor Shang had already put down the Qiuyi Robe in his heart and tried his best to forget about it, he would treat it as the real death of the Qiuyi Robe! But with such deep love, no matter how determined Emperor Shang was, his heart still had traces and softness of an autumn smokescreen. He never thought that the woman who hurt his daughter while standing on his opposite side was actually an autumn smokescreen. No matter how much love there was, it wouldn’t be able to endure such extravagance. Emperor Shang felt that when he lost his autumn smokecoat, the pain was never like this. Not only was it painful, it was also very disappointing! However, after the pain and the disappointment, this person was no longer able to arouse the slightest bit of affection from him!

“Yes, she’s really Empress Qiu!” The old officials said excitedly. After all, it was hard for people to forget the Queen Qiu’s beauty back then. Furthermore, Qiuyi Yi’s appearance had not changed much after so many years.

“Could it be that what she said is true?” The officials were panicking.

Bai Shangshu stared at the autumn smoking gown below. If it wasn’t for the good upbringing of Bai Shangshu, he would have already cursed out loud. Back then, he had thought that although Empress Qiu didn’t have any family influence, she was a rare and virtuous empress, with the demeanor of a nation’s mother. But now, Minister Bai felt that Empress Qiu was a truly shameless woman! To help another country expose their own country’s shortcomings, to the point of hurting their own daughter not feeling the slightest bit of guilt, how could such a woman ever sit in the position of the empress of Shang!

“Empress Qiu has already passed on for so many years. Now that you stand out and say that you’re Empress Qiu, who knows if you have a conspiracy! Besides, you are in cahoots with the son of a traitor, and you are close to another country. If you truly knew that the crown prince was a woman a long time ago, then why did you keep quiet about it all these years? Minister Bai shouted in anger.

Professor Bai’s words had sobered up many people. It didn’t matter if the crown prince was a man or a woman, they had to face the malice of another country. Besides, what he said made sense. They could tell that something was amiss if they thought about it carefully.

Qiuyi Yi didn’t know how to respond, but he still stood there unmoving, with a certain tone, “No matter what happened, it is a fact that Crown Prince Shang is a woman. She is not worthy of being the Crown Prince of a country!”

Just as everyone was about to argue, Shang Wuxin suddenly stood up. A dignified female voice, full of faint laughter, drifted in the air with the wind, and finally rushed into everyone’s ears. <>

“Yes, I am indeed a woman!”

This sentence almost caused everyone’s jaws to drop to the ground. Even the Western Fragrance did not expect Shang Wuxin to admit to this without any explanation. This was clearly not a person’s attitude!

Shang was not in the mood to stand. The entire world turned pale for her. She stood there proudly, looking down upon everything in the world with a domineering aura. She arrogantly said, “But, so what?” A deep, hellish gaze swept across the officials below. There was neither emotion nor warmth in their eyes. Their slender, skinny bodies looked down from above. Their steady steps had a deep explosive force to them. They looked disdainful and dangerous.

The peach blossom eyes were filled with a gentle smile, and those who were familiar with the Illusory Mo Che knew, that if anyone objected at this moment, the person who looked like a gentleman would instantly take someone’s life.

Leng Yuefeng’s starry eyes were like sharp blades, piercing through everyone’s nerves. He was like a wild beast guarding Shang Wuxin, and as long as he noticed anyone who resisted, he would immediately tear them to shreds.

The crowd finally understood that even if the crown prince was a girl, the Minister of the Left and General Leng would still be standing by his side. What other prince would there be in the royal family now? Thinking about this, everyone looked at the crown prince in fear. Was the crown prince not afraid because of this? The crown prince had planned this long in advance, which was why he had eliminated the princes.

Emperor Shang looked at his daughter who was standing there suppressing everyone with her aura and felt a sense of pride. He said loudly, “The Crown Prince is a woman and this is not against the king. The gods told me that the Crown Prince was the blessing of the Kingdom of Shang, the blessing of the commoners and the blessing of the kings! “I thought for a long time and then turned the crown prince’s identity into that of a man. The crown prince has been concealing his identity for so many years, I was the one who accepted it!”

Shang was not in the mood to look at the Emperor’s serious expression. Although he was happy about it, he could not show it on his face. The corners of Leng Yufeng and Huan Mo Che’s eyes twitched. They never thought that even the normally solemn Emperor Shang would say something that sounded like divine sticks. <>

Emperor Shang looked at the shocked faces of the crowd and continued, “Initially, I thought I was wrong. But now that everyone has seen what the Crown Prince has done, it is indeed as the gods say. The Crown Prince is the blessing of the Kingdom of Sang! This title of Crown Prince belongs to none other than my daughter, Shang Wuxin! ”

This one sentence represented the unshakable decision of Emperor Shang!

Some of the officials thought that the Crown Prince’s capabilities and actions were a little out of their mind, while others thought that perhaps the dream of Emperor Shang was true. Those who knew that the Crown Prince was a woman who wanted to take the crown prince down from the East Palace were holding themselves back due to the presence of the Western Regions. For the time being, Shang’s unintentional position as Crown Prince remained untouched.

Shang Tong was quite satisfied with the calm and collected state of the court officials of Shang. After all, they would have long been out of the question if this were the case. Ignoring the various stares of those people, Shang was not in the mood to look at the celebration below. “Since you’re a traitor, you shouldn’t keep these kinds of things that eat the enemy inside out!”

Before anyone could react, they saw Qing Li’s fearless body suddenly move. He instantly arrived next to Qing Li and kicked him to the ground. Then, he casually took out a guard’s saber and chopped off Qing Li’s head.

His eyes were still wide open on his head that was still gushing blood. His head rolled onto the ground near his feet, and blood splashed onto his shoes, causing Qiuyi to step back in fear. His face was pale as he stared fearlessly as if he was looking at a ghost.

Worry not, he looked at the panic on Qiuyi’s face, gripped his broadsword in his hand and tossed it to the guard before returning to stand behind the crown prince. Everyone knew that the two maidservants at the crown prince’s side were highly valued by the crown prince. Currently, many of the sons of officials were somewhat afraid …

Shang was not in the mood to look at the Qiufen Robe who was standing there. He said in a regretful tone, “Why are you so disobedient? It seems like my temper makes you think that I am truly weak and can be bullied! ” As he spoke, he saw Dreadless appear in the stands, pushing a wheelchair.

“Rongrong!” Wasn’t it his daughter, Qiu Rongrong, who was brought out on a wheelchair? How could that be? She had obviously hidden Qiu Rongrong, afraid that Shang would take revenge on her.

It was a pity that Qiu Rongrong was unable to ascend to the spectator’s stand because guards had already stopped her. Qiuyi Yi could only raise his head to look at Emperor Shang, but unfortunately, even though that man was looking at him now, he didn’t have the slightest bit of affection for him.

“Your Majesty, the thousand faults are my fault. It has nothing to do with Rongrong. Can you tell Crown Prince Shang not to hurt Rongrong?” Only now did she realize that Shang Wuxin did not have the ability to deal with her, but rather that she had not acted since the beginning. Only now did she know, but she was afraid.

“Ha!” Not the man who tolerated the pain and loved the Qiuyi Robe, but the king of the country, the father of a child. He mocked, “Then why did you hurt my daughter?”

With a single sentence, all hope in Qiuyi vanished into nothingness.

Shang Xin walked up to Qiu Rongrong and pinched her chin, his voice cold, “Are you really not obedient?” As she spoke, she took out the dagger she brought with her. The icy dagger danced around Qiu Rongrong’s face and nose, causing blood and wounds to appear wherever it went. Qiu Rongrong wanted to cry, but she was drugged before she came, and no sound could come out now.

Enjoying Qiu Rongrong’s struggle and fear, as well as the pain of her autumn clothes, Shang Wuxin suddenly raised his eyes to look at the Qiuyi Robe below him. The smile at the corner of his mouth was somber and cruel, his pupils sharp and terrifying beyond words. Then, with a wave of his dagger, a trail of blood flowed out, while Qiu Rongrong fell down from her wheelchair, blood gushing out from her neck.

“Rongrong!” Qiuyi Yi’s voice was hoarse, and he immediately fainted.

Shang unwittingly looked at the unconscious figure of Emperor Shang and noticed that he was only doing so by reflex. With a wave of his hand, Fearless dragged Qiu Rongrong’s body away, and he brought her down as well.

“Princess Fragrance!” Shang was about to leave when he suddenly stopped, “Please send the city to me as soon as possible!”

At this moment, Western Fragrance’s face had turned purple, but she still said with a smile, “Of course!”
