Chapter 22 - Chapter 22 Han Xuanhao’s Embarrassment (2)

"It's you!" Han Xuanhao spoke somewhat uncontrollably. He had not expected that the young man he had been looking for was actually the crown prince, and the person he was going to assassinate tonight. Han Xuanhao immediately sent a signal outside, and the assassins who were still fighting in the crown prince's mansion immediately retreated and disappeared into the night.

  Shang Wuxin looked at Han Xuanhao who appeared in his bedroom, and found that there was probably no man who could wear the red clothes as handsomely as Han Xuanhao. His face was extremely delicate and beautiful, as if carved from jade, like a work of art. His long hair was draped over his shoulders, and except for the hair that was tied up, a few strands fell elegantly on his shoulders and hung down softly. His hair reached his waist, and the ends of his hair were tied up with a white hairband. If Shang Wuxin had not been able to see the bloody smell around him, he would have thought that he was a playboy.

  "I haven't looked for you yet, but you came to me first!" Shang Wuxin looked at Han Xuanhao's surprised eyes and said in a cold voice, "I wonder if you are here to repay me or to take my life?"

  Han Xuanhao's face showed embarrassment in the night. Ever since he came back from the mountains that day, he has been investigating and looking for the boy who saved him that day. Even though he knew that the boy would definitely come to find him, because he still lacked three conditions, how could the boy let go of the benefits? But he didn't know how long it would take for the boy to come to find him, what if it was decades later? So he sent the intelligence of Hanxing Pavilion to search for the boy carefully, but found nothing, which almost made him think it was a dream.

  As he searched fruitlessly day after day, he became more and more anxious. This was something he had never experienced before. He thought that he must have liked the boy so much that he wanted to make a friend. It just so happened that at this time, Hanxing Pavilion took a deal to kill the current crown prince. If it had been such a thing before, he would not have taken action. But it just so happened that there were many rumors about the crown prince during this period, but most of them were praises, and he was in a bad mood and needed to find someone to vent his anger, so he came here by himself, but he didn't expect that the current crown prince of Shangguo was actually the boy who saved him that day.

  Han Xuanhao was pleasantly surprised that he had done it himself this time and finally met this young man. However, when he thought about what he came here for and the dead and injured guards outside, Han Xuanhao hesitated. He was afraid that doing these things would make him hate him even more.

  "I'm sorry!" This was the first time Han Xuanhao apologized since he was eighteen years old. "I didn't know you were the crown prince. Hanxing Pavilion will be responsible for today's losses. As for the dead and injured guards, I will also try my best to compensate the crown prince's mansion!"

  Shang Wuxin didn't really mind. If she did mind, she would have gone out long ago to prevent the guards of the Prince's Mansion from getting hurt. Or in a sense, today's attack would make the Prince's Mansion more solid in the future. This is the necessary price for growth.

  "I wonder who wants to kill me today?" Shang Wuxin's face looked a little gloomy under the moonlight, and even his words became ambiguous.

  Seeing that Shang Wuxin didn't blame him, Han Xuanhao was relieved. Then, thinking of the person who paid a lot of money to kill Shang Wuxin, the smile on his face became more charming. "Although a palace maid was sent, the person who wants your life this time should be Concubine Qin in the palace! Do you need my help to solve it?"

  Shang Wuxin was a little surprised by Han Xuanhao's decision. After all, no matter how brilliant the smile on Han Xuanhao's lips was, as a killer and the master of Hanxing Pavilion, Han Xuanhao had never been a kind person, let alone a nosy person.

  "Within the three conditions?" Shang Wuxin asked with a smile.

  Seeing Shang Wuxin being so defensive, Han Xuanhao felt annoyed. Why was it so difficult for him to be nice to someone?

  "Of course not!" Han Xuanhao said helplessly, "I will not deny those three conditions!"

  Although she didn't know why Han Xuanhao did this, Shang Wuxin didn't care. The people around her were divided into two types. One was those who did not harm her, such as Han Xuanhao now, so she would not care. The other was those who blocked her way and were harmful to her. There was no need for such people to exist.

  "No need. It would be my fault if I have to trouble you for such a small matter!" Shang Wuxin said indifferently. She was just Concubine Qin and she didn't take her seriously for the time being. Besides, now was not the time to bother Concubine Qin.

  After Shang Wuxin finished speaking, he walked behind the screen to rest. Han Xuanhao, who was standing outside, stood there for a while before leaving the bedroom in frustration. When Shang Wuxin in the bedroom heard the sound of Han Xuanhao leaving, the corners of his mouth curled slightly.

  After Han Xuanhao left the Prince's Mansion, he saw his subordinates waiting there. "My Lord!"

  "From now on, any matters concerning the Prince's Mansion must be reported to me as soon as possible. If someone offers money to assassinate Prince Shang Wuxin again, you must also report to me as soon as possible. If I find out that you have forgotten, don't blame me for being cruel!" Han Xuanhao looked at these black-clothed subordinates viciously. There was no trace of the enchanting look he showed in front of Shang Wuxin.

  "Yes!" Many killers said fearfully. Although the Lord had a beautiful face, he was a very cruel person. Countless of his subordinates died in Hanxing Pavilion.

  Han Xuanhao glanced at the Prince's Mansion in the distance and felt a sense of pride in his heart. He finally knew who the young man was. It turned out to be the Prince of Shang Kingdom, Shang Wuxin. Haha, he can come to find Wuxin in the future. Shang Wuxin, Wuxin, Xin'er... Han Xuanhao kept thinking in his mind, completely unaware that his gentle smile now made the killers tremble with fear.

  At this time in Taizu Mansion, Wu Jue woke up and rushed to the prince's bedroom, but before he passed the screen, he heard the prince's voice from inside, "If you are injured, go and rest!"

  Wu Jue felt relieved knowing that the prince was fine, but she couldn't figure out what happened between the prince and the lord of Hanxing Pavilion? Did the prince win the fight? However, she also knew that this was not something she should think about, so she quietly left the palace and happened to meet the chief steward Hai who was rushing here.

  "Is the prince okay?" Chief Steward Hai said as he was about to rush into the bedroom but was stopped by Wu Jue.

  "Butler Hai, the prince has nothing to do and is resting. Please don't disturb him!" Wu Jue was really afraid that if Butler Hai rushed in like this, the prince would be angry.

  "That's good, that's good!" Chief Steward Hai said and went to deal with the affairs of the mansion. After all, there were still some injured guards who needed medical treatment, and he would not rest tonight.
