Crossing the World: This Prince is a Little Sweet

"My Lord, it has been more than two months."

"More than two months, no problems at all?"

"I had my suspicions before, but the doctors at the Imperial Hospital said it was a case of fatigue. I took medicine every day, but there was no improvement."

"Okay, I understand. Eunuch Fu, you stay here and don't let anyone get close. Don't see anyone who comes..."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Yingyi, stay here."

"Yes, master."

After Yan Jingshuo gave his orders, he glanced at the emperor who was sleeping on the bed, then left.

Inside the cliff cave, Nangong Yu saw that his injuries had improved a lot, so he got up and stretched his muscles.

Looking at Chu Xi who was already asleep, his heart was beating fast, and he couldn't help but kiss her pink cheek. He picked up a strand of her hair and scratched her little face.

Chu Xi felt itchy, moved a little, and slowly woke up. She pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "Nangong Yu, stop making trouble, I want to sleep."

Nangong Yu raised the corners of his lips slightly and teased, "Xiao Xixi, get up and go, or I will leave by myself and leave you here alone."

When Chu Xi heard this, he immediately perked up and sat up from the ground.

"Don't... don't leave me, go... go..."

Chu Xi quickly took Nangong Yu's hand and walked to the cave entrance. Looking at the abyss below, he was frightened.

"Nangong Yu, how do we get up there?"

Nangong Yu could clearly feel the little hand holding his, and his palms were sweating. This woman was obviously very nervous, but she was still pretending to be calm.

"It's okay, just hold me tight for a moment."

Nangong Yu rubbed her head, squatted beside her, and motioned for her to climb onto his back.

"Come up..."

"But the wound on your back hasn't healed yet..."

Chu Xi looked at the bandaged back, with traces of blood seeping out, and hesitated.

"It's just a minor injury. Does Xiao Xixi want to stay here? Then I'll leave..."

Nangong Yu pretended to stand up, as if he was going to go up by himself.

“No, no… I’ll just go up…”

Chu Xi obediently lay on Nangong Yu's back, wrapped her arms around his neck, and wrapped her legs around his waist, clinging to Nangong Yu's body like an octopus.

Nangong Yu laughed: "Are you so afraid of death?"

"Humph……"

Chu Xi snorted coldly and turned away to ignore him.

The little one on her back felt a little light. Nangong Yu looked back at her:

"Xiao Xixi, hold on tight, I'm about to start..."

"great, good luck."

Chu Xi responded with a "good" in a low voice.

Nangong Yu carried Chu Xi on his back and climbed up the stone wall next to the cave entrance. He looked up at the cliff and found that the wall was uneven, which was conducive to climbing.

"Xiao Xixi, hold on tight, I'm going a little fast..."

"I understand. You should be careful too."

Because of his martial arts training, Nangong Yu was able to climb the cliff very quickly, and in less than half an hour he reached the top of the cliff where he had jumped off.

"arrive"

Nangong Yu said this, still carrying her on his back, and started heading towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Nangong Yu, aren't you tired?"

Chu Xi's voice rang in his ears. He said, "We had just climbed up. We could take a rest for a while before heading back."

"Not tired, I'll take you home first."

Nangong Yu did not stop walking, mainly because he was afraid that if he stayed too long he would run into the assassin again. Those people killed people without blinking an eye, and he couldn't let his little Xixi get hurt.

Thinking of this, Nangong Yu's eyes became fierce. He had to find a way to get rid of these bastards. It would not do to keep pestering him like this.

Nangong Yu felt a little relieved only after he and Chu Xi landed safely in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"arrive"

Chu Xi got off Nangong Yu's back and saw that her clothes were all stained with blood. She took his hand and walked towards the side room where she made medicine.

"Come with me and I'll bandage you again."

"Miss, where have you been? The master and mistress have been looking for you all afternoon."

When Shaoyao came in with dinner, she saw Chu Xi pulling a man in red into the side room. She hurriedly put the dinner aside and shouted at Chu Xi's back.

"What do you want from me?"

Chu Xi calmly applied medicine to Nangong Yu while responding to Shaoyao.

"It's just that the son-in-law... No, the Seventh Prince gave you a lot of good things, so the master and his wife wanted to ask the young lady what's going on? Ah... Don't look at it without permission..."

Shaoyao said this and quickly turned around and walked out the door, not daring to look at Chu Xi and the others.

"What do you say if my parents can't find me?"

"I said the young lady was refining medicine in the side room and didn't want anyone to disturb her."

Shaoyao replied softly at the door.

"All right"

Chu Xi bandaged the wound neatly and was very satisfied with his technique.

"Don't let the wound come into contact with water in the next few days to prevent it from getting inflamed."

Nangong Yu looked at the wound on his body, slightly stunned. This was the first time someone bandaged him so carefully and cared about his injury. In the past, he just bandaged it casually or sprinkled some medicine powder on it, but never bandaged it so carefully.

"Xiao Xixi, thank you."

"Little things..."

Chu Xi looked at him with a smile. It was rare to see him so dazed. Before, he always had a rebellious expression and acted arrogantly towards everyone he met.

"Xiao Xixi, I'm leaving."

Nangong Yu stuffed a golden token into her hand: "Xiao Xixi, if you have any questions, go to Fengyu Pavilion in the south of the city to find the shopkeeper, he will tell me."

"it is good……"

Chu Xi glanced at the token and responded softly.

"Xiao Xixi, I'm leaving. Remember to miss me. Remember to miss me..."

Nangong Yu spoke in a coquettish manner, her pair of peach blossom eyes showing infinite charm.

"understood."

Chu Xi nodded.

Only then did Nangong Yu walk out of the room and leave quickly.

Chu Xi walked out of the room and saw that Nangong Yu had already left, so he called out to Shaoyao:

"Peony, I'm hungry."

"Miss, dinner is ready."

Shaoyao immediately brought the food to the room.

Chu Xi changed his clothes and finished his dinner before slowly walking to the front hall.

I saw the front hall was filled with boxes, thirty large boxes in total.

Chu Xi was shocked. With so many things, could this man be planning to propose marriage?

She wrote clearly in the letter that they would go their separate ways and would not meet again.

Mrs. Chu happened to walk into the front hall.

"Xi'er, are you done?"

"Mom, what's going on?"

Chu Xi's voice was a little nervous, she really didn't want to get married yet.

"This is a thank-you gift from the Seventh Prince. The people around him said they didn't know what you like, so they sent you some of each."

Mrs. Chu spoke in a gentle voice.

"Oh... I hope it's not a betrothal gift."

Chu Xi let out a long sigh, and his heart settled back into his stomach.

"Xi'er, what did you say? What betrothal gift?"

In fact, at first Mrs. Chu also thought it was the betrothal gift from the Seventh Prince, but that person said it was not, it was just a thank-you gift, and the betrothal gift would be more grand than this.

"Nothing, I mean a thank you gift, thank you gift is good, I like it..."

Chu Xi was overjoyed and looked at the boxes excitedly.

When she opened one of the boxes, she saw something sparkling with golden light inside. She was so happy that she immediately put the lid down modestly, not wanting to lose her manners in front of her mother.

Oh hehe...gold...that's her favorite color.

Shuo Shuo really understands her best and knows what she loves most.

"Mom, are these all for me?"

Chu Xi called sweetly.

"Well, these are all given to you by the Seventh Prince. Just keep them for yourself."

Mrs. Chu couldn't help but laugh at her daughter who looked like she was obsessed with money.

"Xi'er, why did the prince give you so many things?"

"Mom, I saved him once before, his life should be worth this much, right?"

After Chu Xi dismissed everyone, he whispered in Madam Chu's ear.

"So that's how it is. I know now."

Madam Chu patted Chu Xi's hand and said earnestly:

"Xi'er, it's a good thing that you have such a good relationship with the prince. This way you won't suffer too much when you marry him."
