Crossing the World: This Prince is a Little Sweet

"Prince's Mansion"

Yan Jingshuo carried her inside, but Chu Xi held him tightly and prevented him from moving.

Yan Jingshuo looked at her puzzledly:

"Xi'er, why don't you leave?"

"Your Majesty, I don't want to come to the palace. I want to go back to my own home."

Chu Xi looked at him pitifully.

"Xi'er was very excited just now, why...are you scared now?"

Yan Jingshuo raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but make a joke.

"I'm not excited at all."

Chu Xi trembled and lowered his head, not daring to look at him.

"Really? Xier almost drooled just now. It seems that I failed to satisfy you. I am really ashamed of myself. I need to work harder."

"My Lord, please stop talking. I was wrong. I admit my mistake."

Chu Xi quickly covered his mouth.

When did this guy start saying these crazy things?

Her serious and pure prince started to become muddy.

Yan Jingshuo lowered his head and looked at her, with a hint of smile in the corners of his eyes.

"Your Majesty, please send me home. I'm sure I'll have a bed, otherwise I won't be able to sleep tonight."

Chu Xi released her hand that was covering Yan Jingshuo and begged in a low voice that she didn't want to stay in the palace, otherwise she would be eaten up.

As soon as Chu Xi acted coquettishly, Yan Jingshuo's heart softened immediately and he pinched her face lovingly.

"I really lost to you, hold me tight."

After a few jumps, Yan Jingshuo took Chu Xi back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

As soon as Chu Xi returned to the yard, he saw Shaoyao lying on the ground and immediately turned around and said:

"Fireworks, did you make him faint?"

Yan Huo, who had just arrived, stopped behind them and saluted:

"It's my subordinate."

"Then how could you let Shaoyao lie on the ground? Take her back to her room and don't let her catch a cold."

"Yes"

Yanhuo quickly picked up Shaoyao and put her back into the next room.

Chu Xi then slowly returned to his room, and Yan Jingshuo followed him in.

"My Lord, why don't you go home so late? I want to go to bed..."

Chu Xi looked at Yan Jingshuo who was stepping in with confusion.

"Ok, I know."

"I know. Why don't you go back and rest quickly? You'll be exhausted in a moment."

Chu Xi started to drive him away rudely and pushed him out.

"Xi'er, you turned hostile as soon as you came back? If I had known, I would have taken you back to the palace."

Yan Jingshuo's tone was a little bitter, and he looked like someone who had been abandoned.

"No way, Your Majesty, please don't say that. I still love you the most, but it's too late, it's better to go to bed early..."

Chu Xi stopped.

"I think Xi'er is now..."

"No, then what do you want, Your Highness? Aren't you going to go back to sleep? Are you going to stay here forever? If my parents find out, they will definitely break my legs."

Yan Jingshuo didn't care. He just reached out to close the door, then picked her up and walked towards the bed.

"My lord, you..."

Chu Xi was put directly on the bed, and before she had time to turn over, Yan Jingshuo leaned over and kissed her.

He tore off her clothes one by one, revealing her white inner garment. Just when Chu Xi thought there would be another move, Yan Jingshuo suddenly paused.

"Go to bed early, Xier."

After Yan Jingshuo finished speaking, he kissed her on the forehead, lay down beside her, hugged her and closed his eyes.

Chu Xi didn't come back to his senses until he heard the sound of even breathing.

She turned her head to look at that beautiful androgynous face, pecked his lips gently, then buried her head in his arms and fell asleep.

After Chu Xi really fell asleep, Yan Jingshuo opened his eyes again, hugged Chu Xi tightly in his arms, sniffed the unique and familiar fragrance on her body, and then fell asleep contentedly.

The next day, when Chu Xi woke up, Yan Jingshuo was nowhere to be seen.

Chu Xi stretched and got out of bed. Looking at the mess on the floor, she hurried downstairs to put the nightgown back into the Fire Cloud Bracelet.

Strange, hasn’t Peony gotten up yet?

Chu Xi looked at the time and realized it was getting late.

In fact, Shaoyao had woken up a long time ago. After Shaoyao had tidied everything, she wanted to knock on the door to wake Chu Xi up as the weather was good today. However, she was struck unconscious by fireworks just before she walked through the door.

Yanhuo looked at Shaoyao who had fainted on the ground, and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes.

There was no other way as his master was still in the princess's room and had not come out yet, so he could only knock Shaoyao unconscious again.

This time he was sensible and directly carried the unconscious Shaoyao back to her room.

As soon as the fireworks were set off, Shaoyao came out and saw her master standing outside Chuxi's door.

"master……"

"Um"

Yan Jingshuo responded indifferently.

"I'm leaving now. Protect the princess."

"obey"

Yan Jingshuo looked back at the door behind him and left quickly.

Chu Xi finished washing up and walked out of the room with a list.

"Fireworks, are you there?"

"Princess, I am here."

Fireworks came down from the tree and walked over to Chu Xi.

"Go buy something for me."

Chu Xi said, handing him a list.

"Princess, this..."

Yanhuo looked embarrassed. He was afraid that if he went out to buy things, what would happen if the Second Prince Nangong came?

His master told him to protect the princess, and he couldn't just walk away like that.

"Go ahead. These things are very important. I won't be in any danger in my own home. Even if something does happen, I will explain it to your prince in person."

Chu Xi obviously saw his embarrassment and spoke patiently.

"Princess, that's not what I meant..."

Anxiety showed up on Yanhuo's face. He was not worried about the prince blaming him. He was just worried about the princess' safety.

"Go ahead, these things are really urgent, I'm going to need them soon."

"Yes, princess."

Yanhuo took the list and walked out.

At this time, Shaoyao walked out of the side room, rubbing her sore neck.

"Morning, miss."

"Morning, Peony."

"Miss, why do you think the back of my neck hurts so much? It feels like I was knocked unconscious several times, but I woke up in my own bed. It's so strange."

"Is that true? Did you have a nightmare last night and didn't sleep well?"

"Really? This morning I had already washed up and wanted to wake you up, but just as I was about to knock on the door, someone knocked me unconscious from behind. Who was that bold person? Don't let me know, or I'll tickle him to death."

Shaoyao said this through gritted teeth, then looked at Chu Xi carefully.

"Miss, after that guy knocked me out, he didn't do anything to you, did he?"

"No, I didn't see anyone else. Shaoyao must have had a nightmare."

"Is it really?"

Shaoyao became a little uncertain. No outsiders had come? Was she really having a nightmare?

"real."

Seeing Chu Xi looking at her with determination, Shaoyao now really suspected that she was having a nightmare.

"Okay, let's not dwell on this issue anymore. Your lady is hungry, so go eat something first."

"Okay, miss."

At this time, a maid beside Mrs. Chu came in and saluted Chu Xi.

"Miss, the master and mistress are waiting for you to have breakfast in the front hall."

"Okay, got it. I'll be there right away."

After Chu Xi finished speaking, he followed the maid out of his own courtyard.

In the front hall, Prime Minister Chu and Madam Chu were sitting at the table chatting.

Seeing Chu Xi coming, Mrs. Chu immediately waved for her to sit next to her.

"Xi'er, come and sit here."

"Mom and Dad, good morning..."

"Well, Xier, sit down and have breakfast."

Chu Xiang nodded, then picked up a bowl of porridge and drank it slowly.

"Dad, are you leaving court so early today?"

"Alas, the emperor did not attend court today, so I came back early today."

Prime Minister Chu sighed. He noticed that the emperor's complexion had not been very good recently, and he coughed from time to time. If this continued, it would be terrible.
