Shang Wuxin got out of the carriage. As soon as he saw Shang Wuxin walking out, Leng Yufeng quickly got down from his horse and stood at her side.

Seeing the man who always stood at her side whenever she need, Shang Wuxin got moved. Leng Yufeng didn’t talk too much but he never flinched. Shang Wuxin thought that no matter what happened in the future, she would give Leng Yufeng great wealth. But at the moment she didn’t realized that the man beside her was not interested in wealth. He simply desired for a person who was special for him.

Shang Wuxin didn’t get close to the girl. She just stood at a distance, being protected by her guards, gazing at the girl who was keeping kowtowing.

Though it was hard to see the girl’s face clearly, most people showed sympathy for her as she did this in spite of ruining her face and getting hurt. Shang Wuxin stood there staring at her for a while and slowly uttered, “Do you know me?”

Hearing voice, the girl quickly raised her head. The girl wore a pink yarn dress, looking slim and graceful. The jewelry on her body made crisp sound, and the girl looked more cute and appealing with it. Sorrow could be seen between her eyebrows. Along with the horrible blood on her forehead, it made people feel pity for the girl.

“Yes... I have seen you, Crown Prince!” answered the girl obediently, kneeling on the ground. But Shang Wuxin had no intention to ask another question.

Leng Yufeng was aware that his crown prince was not interested in that girl, so he stepped forward querying with serious voice, “What’s your true purpose of stopping crown prince?” What he said was so powerful as Leng Yufeng was a general who had killed so many people. The girl’s face suddenly turned to be pale because of fear.

“I, I just have no way to go!” The girl sobbed and said, “Both of my mother and father died, so I had no one to rely on. I just wanted to sell myself, and then I could get some money to bury my father. Crown Prince, I’m an innocent girl. I just wanted to be a servant. But the man, the man not only grabbed me to be his attendant concubine but gave no payment. He even wanted to discard my father’s corpse on the street! I couldn’t persuade him and tried to resist. He got angry and then threw my father’s body...” The girl suddenly burst into tears as she said these words. “My father was finally thrown into the mass graves and was eaten by beasts!”

All people around the place sighed for the girl’s miserable past and glared at the man behind her. Most people were just like this: even though they didn’t offer help themselves, they would regard themselves as the righteous.

“So?” asked Shang Wuxin indifferently.

As the girl saw that the crown prince was not moved at all. She cried more bitterly saying, “I have escaped from him and have no way to go. But I’m so lucky to see you, Crown Prince! Please save me! I will do whatever I can to repay you!” finishing her words, the girl kept kneeling.

Though the road was quiet, it didn’t mean that there was no people here. Some people had gathered here for the moment. Leng Yufeng felt a bit worried because it would hurt the crown prince’s good reputation. However, Leng Yufeng didn’t think Shang Wuxin should save the girl in his heart.

“Well.” Shang Wuxin played her jade pendant which was hung on her waist questioning in a playful way, “Why do you think I will save you? After all, it’s a good choice for you to be the man’s concubine. Now that you have lost your parents, you can still rely on him!”

Some people thought the same way with their crown prince. Since all women relied on men at that time, it was a really good choice for the girl to be a concubine.
