The Captivating Crown Prince - Chapter 34
Chapter 34
“Someone died!”
I have no idea who shouted that line.
At first, people were looking at the Prince like he was the savior. But now, they could only see the handsome young man as “death”.
To the citizens, the Prince’s actions were cruel. Many of them were scared. But, Shang WuXin didn’t feel any remorse. When she came with the food, everyone was grateful, but they were doing irresponsible things. In order to stop these people from stealing the food, she killed them. People are animals who are very forgetful. There are many people who do not see the situation that they are in.
Leng Yufeng looked at the citizens. The citizens were slowly approaching the Prince. To ensure the Prince’s safety, Leng Yufeng went to the Prince’s side.
Moche touched the folding fan at her waist. The fan is not a decoration but a weapon that kills people in a blick of an eye.
Bai Shaolin started telling the soldiers to protect the Prince and the food.
Shang WuXin’s white boots stepped on blood. She stood in front of the citizens. The citizens suddenly quieted down and looked at the teenager. People started to feel guilty for the first time.
Shang WuXin didn’t look at their expressions. She started to say, “Thanks to Mr. Huan and Leng YuFeng’s help, I was able to convince the king to let me bring food to Fengzhou City. While going through the mountains, there were many thieves and robbers. But I never thought about retreating and I didn’t even think about letting others do this thing kind of job because I know better than anyone else that there are countless corrupt officials in this world. If I were to let anyone else do this job, even if the food got to Feng Zhou, it would not save everyone’s lives.”
Leng Yufeng and Moche looked at each other thinking that the teenager who stood in front of them was inspiring.
“I have not stopped or given up on helping you. Even these three thousand soldiers have not given up. When my soldiers and I finally reached this place, we were happy because we were able to bring the food to you and save you.
One by one, the citizens started shedding tears. They all squatted down on the ground and looked up at the boy. The people felt embarrassed and they began blaming themselves for their horrible behavior.
“When I saw your happy faces, I started to think that everything was worthwhile. But instead of adhering to my instructions and following the rules, you people decided to steal the food that my subordinates and I got for you. You used your hunger as a reason to steal the food, but you never thought about how I felt or how the soldiers felt! Now that the food is here, you guys can do whatever you want.”
When Shang WuXin finished talking, the soldiers left the carriage carrying the food and followed the Prince.
Bai Shaolin looked at the Prince with amazement and couldn’t help but admire him. He was still worried that the Prince would kill someone. The Prince’s words and phrases not only solved the problem but also collected the citizens’ hearts.
Leng Yufeng relaxed his body and admired the Prince who stood in front of him. The Prince was obviously thin and sturdy. He clearly had lots of things to worry about, but he was smart and tough enough to solve his problems. Only the Prince can do all these things.
Moche touched the folding fan at the lower back. The smile on the corner of her mouth became more and more gentle. She always knew that the Prince was clever. She has seen his intelligence before. It is inspiring to watch the Prince encourage people. Amazing, he really is a fox!
“Prince!” The voices of the people swallowed the city. The voices were full of sorrow and guilt. The people who were kneeling on the ground, pleading for the youngsters in front of them, had tears in their eyes. The citizens were all bullied by the court officials. Over time they lost confidence in the court and lost their grateful heart.
So when the Prince appeared in the city with food, they were excited. But they were only excited about living another day. When the Prince killed the people who robbed the food, they were afraid because they felt that it was their end. They were afraid of the Prince and had an uncontrollable resentment in their hearts.
However, when the prince stood there and talked about his situation, he won the hearts of the people. He talked about his hardships along the way. He talked about how he never complained. But what did they do? They only cared about their own food and clothing, but they forgot the original intention of the Prince. They competed for food. When they saw how the Prince murdered someone, they felt anger. But they forgot how ungrateful they were.
The sound of crying did not stop. She walked so decisively. The people who were crying behind them shouted the name of the Prince but saw that the boy did not hesitate.
But just as the teenager took thousands of soldiers out of the city gate, a thin child suddenly came out of the crowd. The child was only seven or eight years old and fell to the ground with his parents, watching the one who saved them. The big brother was mad at everyone, and suddenly broke away from the arms of his parents and ran to the side of his brother.
But may he be around the Prince? They could not harm the Prince with so many soldiers around. Moche saw child’s eyes flashed to Bai Shaolin’s eyes. Bai Shaolin could not help but smile and nodded quietly.
