I Don't Want to Be a Charmboy【Quick Wear】

Chapter 77 The enemy country's hostage is a miserable male supporting role (9)

After three rounds of drinks, everyone at the table was enjoying themselves.

Seeing that it was almost time, Lin Shen found an excuse to leave the banquet and prepared to look for the location of the cold palace in order to meet the male protagonist Xiao Quan.

But Lin Shen also drank a little wine today. The original owner might have never drunk before, so his alcohol tolerance was not very good. He even walked a little unsteadily, but he could still hold on.

Lin Shen swore that he would not drink too much alcohol in this body in the future.

Lin Shen wandered around, thinking that the driving force of the plot would lead him to the position of the male protagonist.

Sure enough, after walking for a while, Lin Shen saw a quiet and desolate palace, forgotten in a corner of the palace.

Its walls were mottled, revealing traces of time, and its former glory was long gone. The palace was filled with an old atmosphere, cold and silent.

In this cold palace, time seems to have frozen. There is no laughter and playfulness of the palace maids, nor the bustling and noisy palace. Only the echo of loneliness reverberates in the air, making people feel endless loneliness and despair.

The door of the palace was closed and it didn't look like anyone was there.

Lin Shen walked closer and listened carefully near the palace door, but there was no sound.

Lin Shen was puzzled. Isn’t he in the palace?

Lin Shen took a few steps towards the darker area in front of the cold palace, and then he heard some faint sounds.

"Today is His Majesty's birthday banquet. Everyone is at the palace banquet. Why is the Fifth Prince not here?" A man's voice was mocking.

"Our Majesty may not even remember this Fifth Prince!" another voice said.

"Yes, he is just the son of a palace maid."

"Hahahahahaha..." There were lots of laughter, and it sounded like there were quite a lot of people.

Lin Shen looked in the direction of the sound and first saw a group of eunuchs and palace maids standing there.

Although Xiao Quan was only sixteen years old, he was very tall, and half of his head was visible in the crowd, so Lin Shen could easily see Xiao Quan who was surrounded.

This should be the male protagonist Xiao Quan, the chief secretary of their Long Aotian department.

"Get out of here!" a cold voice said.

The people who were scolded were not convinced.

"Do you think you are really the high and mighty Fifth Prince?" one of the eunuchs sneered.

Xiao Quan didn't say anything and kept his head down, as if he was afraid of those people's threats.

Everyone looked at the scene and laughed out loud.

Xiao Quan raised his head and looked at the scene with cold eyes. His sharp eyes scared everyone.

The frightened young eunuch felt unhappy, and his anger at being bullied by these nobles for many days was ignited.

"How dare you look at me like that?" he said, trying to push forward.

Lin Shen recalled the days when he was in Ji State. No one cared about him, everyone could bully him, and anyone who passed by could step on him.

Seeing this scene, it seemed like I saw my former self.

Lin Shen's eyes darkened slightly. He strode forward and shouted, "Stop it, all of you!" There was majesty in his voice, and the group of eunuchs and palace maids instantly quieted down.

They turned to look at the boy.

The young man stood in the moonlight, wearing a crescent-white dress, with delicate eyebrows and fair skin, like the bright moon in the sky, tempting to pick him.

The boy was so stunningly beautiful that everyone was stunned.

Xiao Quan noticed the boy before he spoke, and he was really handsome.

Originally, he could solve these troubles, but he wanted to see if the boy would stop them, hoping that the boy could be a hero and save the beauty.

Since ancient times, hasn't it been the case that a life-saving favor should be repaid with one's own life?

Lin Shen walked up to Xiao Quan, looked him up and down, his face still expressionless.

"Are you the fifth prince?" The young man's voice was so pleasant that Xiao Quan was stunned for a moment.

Xiao Quan stared at Lin Shen, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Yes, thank you for your help."

Lin Shen nodded and turned to look at the group of people.

Everyone saw the young man looking at them, and they were so nervous that they didn't know what to say or do.

"Even if the Fifth Prince is no longer favored, you can't bully him!" The young man's voice lost its usual gentleness and humility.

Everyone's heart tightened. The eunuch who had just spoken blushed, clenched his hands nervously, and stammered, "I, I, I..."

Lin Shen frowned and was about to speak when his hand was grabbed.

Lin Shen turned his head and looked at the place where his hand was grabbed.

"They didn't mean it." Xiao Quan looked at Lin Shen gently, appearing to have a good temper.

Lin Shen frowned. Is Xiao Quan like this in the original novel? Oh, no, the current Xiao Quan is Xi Cheng. It is normal to have differences.

"Why don't you disperse!" Lin Shen turned and shouted at the eunuchs and palace maids.

The young eunuch who had just spoken suddenly turned pale and looked distraught. They all lowered their heads and left in a hurry.

He just seemed a little reluctant to leave.

Xiao Quan looked at the group of people's performance with his eyes slightly drooping.

Lin Shen looked at Xiao Quan, then looked at his grabbed hand.

Xiao Quan also realized that he had been holding the boy's hand, his face turned red, and he quickly let go.

Lin Shen said nothing and was about to leave.

The original novel did not go into detail about how the original owner helped Xiao Quan, so Lin Shen did not want to say too much to Xiao Quan. He was drunk now and felt a little dizzy, so he had to hurry back to the palace banquet.

"Wait." Xiao Quan took a step forward and stood in front of Lin Shen.

Lin Shen frowned. Why are there two Xiao Quans?

Oh, that’s not right, there are not two Xiao Quans, he is drunk.

"Is there anything else, Fifth Prince?" Lin Shen asked, trying to stay awake.

Xiao Quan smelled alcohol on the boy as soon as he approached him. Now seeing the boy's dazed look, he realized that he was probably drunk.

He smiled slightly, with a smile in the corners of his eyes.

"You haven't told me your name yet?" Xiao Quan stepped forward and held the boy's hand.

Lin Shen glanced at the hand he wanted to shake, but his attention was attracted by Xiao Quan's words.

"My name is Lin Shen." The young man's eyes were blurry and he stared blankly at the man in front of him.

Lin Shen...Lin Shen...sounds familiar!

I seemed to have heard Xu Zhao say that the hostage from the enemy country was called Lin Shen, and I heard that he is now the Prince Xuanping of their Yu State.

"Prince Xuanping?" Xiao Quan asked a little uncertainly.

"Huh? You know me?" The young man frowned and looked at Xiao Quan, looking unhappy.

Xiao Quan smiled, "I've heard of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Lin Shen said expressionlessly: "Oh."

Lin Shen didn't want to delay any longer and wanted to go back quickly.

"I am leaving."

"I'll take you there, Your Highness."

"Need not."

"Really don't need it?"

Lin Shen:......

Xiao Quan looked at the young man who left in anger and a smile appeared on his face.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and a man in black clothes appeared beside Xiao Quan.

"Master." The man's voice was cold and emotionless, as if he was just a cold robot.

Xiao Quan glanced at Xu Zhao and said, "Go and find out all about Prince Xuanping's past."

Xu Zhao was stunned for a moment. He had only seen the young man's back and thought he was the son of an official. His outstanding temperament caught his attention at first sight.

It turns out that this is the enemy country's hostage, Xuanping Prince Lin Shen!

But he didn't understand why his master suddenly asked him to investigate him today when he was not interested last time.

Although he had doubts in his heart, he did not ask. He just did whatever his master said.
