Crossing the World: This Prince is a Little Sweet

Yan Jingshuo didn't want to listen to Sun Yuqiong's disgusting words, so he quickly shot another arrow at her.

Sun Yuqiong's dodging movement was too big, which affected the wound on her right shoulder, causing her to frown slightly due to the pain.

Looking at the arrows that were shot at her one after another and the men in black who were all falling to the ground and dead, Sun Yuqiong knew that in terms of martial arts, she was no match for Yan Jingshuo at all, and she would definitely lose if she continued like this.

So she quickly sprinkled a handful of powder into the yard and retreated.

"Just wait, sister will come back to find you."

Seeing that it was poison powder again, Yan Jingshuo used his inner strength to shake it away and carried Chu Xi back to the room.

"This woman is an expert in using poisons, and her martial arts skills are also good."

Seeing that the poison had dissipated, Chu Xi glanced towards the top of the wall and discovered that the person who had been on the top of the wall just now was nowhere to be seen.

"Well, she knows who poisoned me."

"What did you say?"

Chu Xi, who was about to step out of the door, suddenly stopped and quickly turned back.

"This woman is quite important"

"You were born with the poison from your mother's womb. Does that mean she knows who poisoned you and your mother? And is it possible that she knows your mother's whereabouts?"

Yan Jingshuo nodded slightly.

"This woman is not someone you can easily deal with. She was able to quietly pretend to be the queen and cause chaos in the palace. The power behind her must not be underestimated. The most important thing is that she actually knows about your mother..."

Chu Xi stroked his chin as he analyzed, his brows furrowing as he spoke.

"Xi'er, she came here for the Fire Cloud Bracelet."

Yan Jingshuo looked at Chu Xi who was serious and reminded him.

Chu Xi, who was originally frowning and thinking, suddenly laughed. She looked up at Yan Jingshuo and spoke meaningfully.

"Your Majesty, she just talked about exchanging handsome men, not the Fire Cloud Bracelet."

"Yes"

"Is it possible that she was just coming for you?"

"Xi'er, you are naive. She doesn't know I'm here."

"Now that she knows, will she give up the Fire Cloud Bracelet and turn her attention to you?"

"Xier, do you think it's possible?"

"possible"

Hearing Chu Xi's answer "maybe", Yan Jingshuo shook his head and smiled, then stretched out his finger and flicked her forehead.

"She didn't mention the Fire Cloud Bracelet because she was afraid that we would be on guard, so she used other things as an excuse to confuse us."

"Oh, but it's also true that she has a crush on you."

Chu Xi covered her hurt forehead and said with a pout.

I was indignant in my heart: Murong Xue just left and now a fake queen comes. This guy is a monster.

"Xi'er, is she jealous?"

"Hmm, how come."

Chu Xi turned around and ignored Yan Jingshuo, and walked straight out the door.

"Shaoyao, where are you?"

"Miss, I'm here."

Shaoyao crawled out of the room trembling, looking at the men in black on the ground in horror.

"Don't be afraid, it's all right."

While comforting Shaoyao, Chu Xi quickly walked to Yanhuo and stuffed a pill into his mouth.

"Thank you, Princess."

Yanhuo swallowed the pill and began to meditate and regulate his breathing.

Similarly, after taking the antidote, all the shadow guards began to meditate and regulate their breathing.

Yan Jingshuo looked at the shadow guards meditating in the courtyard and spoke suddenly.

"Clean up the yard later and repair the wall while you're at it."

"Yes"

A group of shadow guards quickly responded with double pupils.

"Oh my God, what's going on?"

As soon as Prime Minister Chu and Madam Chu arrived at the gate of the yard, they were frightened by the scene in front of them. They saw black-clad assassins lying on the ground in Chu Xi's yard.

Chu Xi was startled when she heard the voice behind her. She turned around and saw Prime Minister Chu and Madam Chu looking at her at the gate of the yard.

"Mom and Dad, why are you here?"

Chu Xi hurried forward and tried to block Prime Minister Chu and Madam Chu's sight with his body.

"My servant said there was a big commotion here and they suspected an assassin had broken in. They were worried about your safety so they came to check it out."

Chu Xiang spoke worriedly, and glanced up to see Yan Jingshuo standing on the steps at Chu Xi's door.

"My Lord, why are you here?"

Prime Minister Chu bowed respectfully, but his tone was a little unnatural.

When Mrs. Chu saw Yan Jingshuo’s true face, she was shocked.

Yan Jingshuo's face reminded her of an ancient person. His beautiful facial features were somewhat similar to her ancient person. Could he be...

When Mrs. Chu saw Yan Jingshuo coming over here, she quickly suppressed her doubts, adjusted her mood and looked at Chu Xi.

"Uncle, can we talk for a moment?"

Yan Jingshuo walked down the steps and came in front of Prime Minister Chu calmly, without any embarrassment of being caught.

"Okay... Your Majesty, come this way..."

Prime Minister Chu led Yan Jingshuo some distance outside the courtyard before stopping.

Chu Xi and Madam Chu stood there looking at Prime Minister Chu and Yan Jingshuo. They saw them talking and would glance over here from time to time. They had no idea what they were talking about.

"Xi'er, what's going on?"

Mrs. Chu saw Yanhuo and several men in black starting to clean up the assassins lying on the ground, and asked Chu Xi.

"Mom, as you can see, your daughter has been assassinated again."

Chu Xi shrugged and said helplessly.

"This...this...what disaster have you gotten yourself into again?"

"It's not a disaster, I didn't do anything."

"I didn't do anything, why did they come to kill me?"

"That person was looking for something, and she thought I had it, so she attacked my yard."

"Looking for something?"

"Yes, fortunately the prince showed up in time, so that person didn't hurt me."

"Xi'er, do you know what the assassin is looking for?"

"I don't know. I just heard that person yelling to hand over a bracelet. I don't even know if she was talking about a gold bracelet or a silver bracelet? They started fighting right away. It was really weird..."

Mrs. Chu looked at Chu Xi with a strange expression, her eyes twitching slightly.

How could someone attack her for no reason? No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Mrs. Chu could see that Chu Xi didn't want to tell them the truth.

"Xi'er, you should thank the prince very much. He just saved you."

Mrs. Chu turned her head and glanced at Yan Jingshuo. She knew without any guessing that Yan Jingshuo had climbed over the wall again. It was obvious that this boy cared about Chu Xi very much.

"Xi'er, do you know where the prince's mother is from?"

"I haven't asked this. Why do you ask this, mother?"

Chu Xi looked at Mrs. Chu in confusion, not understanding what she meant by asking this.

"Nothing... nothing, I just thought that the prince's child looked a bit like an old friend of my mother, so I asked a question."

A flash of disappointment flashed across Mrs. Chu's eyes, and she smiled and began to explain.

"So that's how it is. I'll ask him when I have time."

"well"

"Xi'er, I have something to tell you."

Chu Xiang and Yan Jingshuo had finished their conversation and walked over.

"Dad, you said..."

Chu Xi looked at Yan Jingshuo behind Chu Xiang with strange eyes, only to see him wink at her.

"It's just that your little courtyard is very unsafe. Why don't you live somewhere else?"

"How can it be unsafe? My yard is very safe."

When Chu Xi heard that she was asked to change her residence, she immediately became unhappy.

"Xi'er, be obedient. If your courtyard is safe, there won't be so many assassins looking for you."

Prime Minister Chu spoke patiently. He didn't want Chu Xi to move away, but it was really unsafe to stay here.

I just heard from the prince that the assassin was a powerful figure and was obviously targeting Chu Xi.

"So where does Dad want me to move to?"

Chu Xi finally understood why Yan Jingshuo had been so happy and winked at her just now. It turned out to be because of this.

Humph...you bastard, you are trying to sow discord among my family members. Believe it or not, I will put laxative in your tea and make you sing in the toilet for three days.

Chu Xi glared at Yan Jingshuo angrily. Yan Jingshuo looked up at the sky, pretending not to see Chu Xi's resentful look.

"It's a house in the suburbs of Beijing. The prince will send someone to protect you. You can stay there for a while. When you get married, you can move to the palace."

"Dad, then I don't have to come back here?"

"What are you talking about? You can come back anytime you want. During the time you've been away, Dad plans to renovate this place so it will be comfortable for you to live in when you come back."

"Dad, what did you just say about getting married?"

Chu Xi could no longer hide his desire to kill Yan Jingshuo, and his gaze moved back and forth between Chu Xiang and Yan Jingshuo.

When Yan Jingshuo heard Chu Xi's tone, he suddenly felt cold all over. He didn't tell Chu Xiang about this.

"You will soon reach the age of 15, and it is time for you to marry the prince."

Prime Minister Chu had heard that the nanny came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to teach Chu Xi the palace rules. Moreover, after tonight, everyone in the mansion knows that the prince climbed over the wall of the Prime Minister's Mansion at night.

If this gets out, Xier's reputation will definitely be in jeopardy.

"Dad, I'm still young and I want to stay with you for two more years."

"Nonsense, that girl hasn't talked about marriage after she reached the age of 15."

"Dad, you can't make the decision on this matter alone. What if the prince is unhappy?"

Seeing that her father was not convinced, Chu Xi could only make frantic eyes at Yan Jingshuo, signaling him to refuse quickly.

"Your Highness is here just in time. I heard that you have been climbing on my Xi'er's wall many times. If this continues, my Xi'er's reputation will be ruined. Your Highness cannot be irresponsible."

Prime Minister Chu turned around and looked at Yan Jingshuo sharply, questioning him word by word.

"This……"

Yan Jingshuo was speechless and didn't know how to refute for a moment. He felt caught in a dilemma.

"I will definitely take responsibility."

"Your Highness is indeed a responsible person. I will ask His Majesty for permission tomorrow."

"Dad, don't be impulsive. You haven't asked for my opinion yet."

Chu Xi was about to cry. Before, she was only thinking about persuading Yan Jingshuo and letting Yan Jingshuo deal with the emperor, and she completely forgot that there was an old stubborn man in the family.

What a mistake.
