It nearly reached noon when Shang Wuxin woke up. Wu Ju and Wu Wei had been standing outside the sleeping chamber for a whole morning without complaining a little bit. Beside them, a man stood in the yard of the sleeping chamber too and he had also being standing there for almost a whole morning.

“Come in!” the voice showed that Shang Wuxin was not in a good mood now as she didn’t sleep well last night. Wu Wei and Wu Ju quickly walked in as soon as they got the order. Leng Yufeng, who had been waiting there for a morning, felt so wistful though it was just one night that had passed. The most important thing was that the crown prince’s voice was not only cold but also somewhat soft at the moment. Leng Yufeng turned around and fixed his eyes on the chamber. He really hoped that he could get into it and help Crown Prince change clothes. It was the first time that Leng Yufeng had admired the two maids.

As Shang Wuxin got out of bed and washed herself, she walked out of the sleeping chamber and then saw the a man in black standing in the yard. His face was well-featured but gave people a feeling of coldness. His eyebrows were straight and no warmth could be seen in his deep dark eyes. He stood there still, like a cold and arrogant eagle, making a warning that no one was allowed to get close to him.

But the arrogant eagle instantly became a big docile dog as he saw the crown prince walk out of the sleeping chamber. “Crown prince!” Leng Yufeng extended respect to her and greeted. If Shang Wuxin listened to his words carefully, she would discover that his tone was bright, which was totally different as usual.

Shang Wuxin nodded and politely asked, “General Leng, have you had your breakfast yet? Would you like to have breakfast with me?”

Wu Wei moved her lips. She took one look at the sun of the noon, wanting to remind the crown prince that General Leng had been waiting here for a morning, so how could he haven’t had breakfast? However, Wu Wei got more shocked when she heard Leng Yufeng seriously say, “That’s a good idea. I’m pretty glad to have breakfast with you, my Prince.”

When they stepped into the hall to have meals, they saw Chief Hai got here with a man too. Shang Wuxin was not surprised when she saw the man, but it was not the same with Leng Yufeng.

“Crown Prince; Brother!” Leng Zishi paid simple respect. Actually, he was supposed to get here earlier today, but his cousin had something to do with him in the morning so he was delayed for that.

Seeing his brother, who was always unimportant to him, made Leng Yufeng frown. He put down the chopsticks in his hand and asked, “Why are you here?” Leng Zishi was no more than a nominal brother to him, so they didn’t meet each other frequently and there was no family affection between them. But now Leng Yufeng felt something unexpected might have happened since his brother appeared in Crown Prince’s Mansion. He was also not clear about the time when Leng Zishi changed his objective to the crown prince as he always tried to get along well with Leng Tiantian before.

Leng Zishi felt a bit scared in his heart when he saw his brother having meals with crown prince. And he just found that the atmosphere around them seemed to be pretty good. Leng Zishi gritted his teeth and said, determined, “Brother, I don’t want to stay at our mansion without doing anything meaningful. I want to follow crown prince and make some outstanding achievements!”

“Nonsense!” Leng Yufeng wanted to thump on the table but he finally suppressed himself as Shang Wuxin was still having breakfast now. He would never mind if Leng Zishi bothered someone else. He even didn’t care whether his brother was alive or dead. However, he was afraid that Shang Wuxin would complain about him if his brother disturbed her peaceful life.

Leng Zishi opened his eyes wide in fear after hearing what his brother said, and then he turned his sight to the crown prince. Shang Wuxin just had her breakfast as if nothing happened, which made Leng Zishi stunned. He never thought that it could be so enjoyable to see the crown prince having meals.

As Shang Wuxin cast a glance at Leng Yufeng, he quickly calmed himself down and said nothing more, picking up his chopsticks to keep eating. They sat there silently but their atmosphere was still good. Leng Yufeng tried his best to remember the crown prince’s favorite food. He was quite satisfied with this lunch.

After Shang Wuxin put down his chopsticks and took the handkerchief to clean her hands, she looked at Leng Zishi who was standing there and asked, “What’s the time?”

Leng Zishi didn’t get the point at all and kept standing there. “It’s already noon!” Now Leng Yufeng realized that Shang Wuxin had really kept his brother but it couldn’t be as simple as it seemed to be. The crown prince could do whatever she wanted, and if his brother did anything wrong, he would… Leng Yufeng’s eyes gradually got clod.

“You can go now!” Shang Wuxin stood up and said to Leng Zishi.

Leng Zishi got numbed with the words. He suddenly dropped to his knees and begged, “Crown prince, I, I’m late because there is something urgent. I beg your forgiveness!” Leng Zishi firmly believed that he couldn’t leave Crown Prince’s Mansion and he couldn’t be away from Shang Wuxin. He stayed at her side only because of his cousin at first but now things had changed.

“General Leng, What do you think I should do now?” questioned Shang Wuxin, leaving the problem to Leng Yufeng.

Seeing his brother begging there, Leng Yufeng still kept his eyesight cold. Then he said to Shang Wuxin, “According to the rule, my brother should be hit twenty times with wood stick for what he has done!” If Leng Zishi was in the military camp now, the punishment would be more serious. But Leng Zishi had never received any martial arts training, so he would die if the punishment was too severe. Leng Yufeng could see that Shang Wuxin didn’t want to kill Leng Zishi now.

“Brother!” Though Leng Zishi was just a son of a concubine, he still led a good life. No one had hit him and he hardly got abused for something. Obviously, Leng Yufeng didn’t care what he just said, so he averted his eyes to Shang Wuxin calling, “Crown prince!”

“You can get out of here if you can’t bear it!” uttered Shang Wuxin impatiently. Then she waved her hand to let Chief Hai take him away, and added that it would be okay as long as he was not hit to death.

Leng Yufeng thought for a while and asked, “Crown prince, why do you allow my brother to follow you?”

“Well.” Instead of answering his question, Shang Wuxin asked in turn, “General Leng, do your treat him as your true brother? I just think I should take your feeling into account when I make decisions.”

Even if the crown prince didn’t care him at all and did all these things for her own benefit, her words still made Leng Yufeng feel sweet in his heart. “The family affection in the General Mansion is rare. Just do whatever you want, my crown prince!”

Shang Wuxin nodded in satisfaction. But before she could give a response, something white came into the hall. Leng Yufeng quickly got in front of Shang Wuxin and gazed at the strange white thing. Meanwhile, Shang Wuxin’s mind got suddenly blank as she saw the man in front of her.

The little fox wanted to get into the crown prince’s arms but its neck was held by a man who looked so cold. The small fox angrily cried and opened its mouth to bite the man.

“Stop it now!” The little fox was scolded before it revenged. It knew clearly who was abusing it. The fox turned its eyes to crown prince piteously but found that the crown just had no pity on it at all!

Leng Yufeng released the small fox. Actually, Leng Yufeng had prepared to take actions when the small fox tried biting him at the beginning. But he didn’t do that because he had figured out that the small fox should be crown prince’s pet as it could enter the mansion freely.

“Is it your pet, crown prince?” Leng Yufeng still felt it a bit unbelievable. He couldn’t understand the reason why this kind of soft fox would become her pet. However, he also felt that it would be a good thing if crown prince had such a funny thing beside him. After all, she was always alone.

“Crown prince!” Chief Hai ran to Shang Wuxin in a hurry and said, “There is an imperial edict! Pince Qian of Nangong state comes to visit our country. His Majesty asks you to welcome him now!”

Shang Wuxin nodded in acknowledgement. After all, Nangong Lian had bid her farewell and told Shang that her brother would pick her up. Shang Wuxin knew that Prince Qian had come to this country. She originally thought that he would leave as he picked his sister and didn’t expected that he would make a visit so publicly.

“I will go after changing my dress! General Leng, just go with me!”
