Crossing the World: This Prince is a Little Sweet

Chapter 223 Feeling the Breath of the Holy Gu

The girl looked at Chu Xi who was in a daze and reminded him.

"Go? Where?"

"Since we have already received the wooden sign, we must go to find the aunt in charge of this matter."

The woman sighed helplessly. She had never seen anyone who was so dazed. It was really a headache.

"Oh, let's go then."

Chu Xi touched her nose a little embarrassedly. In fact, she was chatting with the Fire Cloud Bracelet and was not really stunned.

But this is not easy to explain.

The girl didn't say anything else, but thought Chu Xi's behavior was a little strange.

"By the way, we may need to work together in the future. I wonder what your name is?"

"My name is Lin Mumu, what's yours?"

"My name is Li Ling. Please give me your guidance in the future."

Li Ling said to Chu Xi politely.

"I should be the one asking you for more advice. Thank you for telling me so much just now."

Chu Xi took the initiative to show goodwill.

“Just some small things, nothing to worry about.

Li Ling walked in front of Chu Xi with an indifferent expression. She was still feeling sad for not being liked by her aunt.

Before coming here, she had made many inquiries and was full of confidence, but in the end she was not chosen by her aunt, so all her efforts were in vain.

Who of the girls who come here would be happy to be a maid sweeping the floor? They must all want to take this opportunity to become a phoenix.

Only the silly woman behind me couldn't tell the difference between joy and sorrow and missed a great opportunity.

Chu Xi, who was a few steps behind, did not notice anything wrong with Li Ling and just thought that Li Ling was being wary of strangers.

After completing the registration, Chu Xi began her maid training life in the Southern Kingdom Palace.

Yan Jingshuo stayed for two days and searched every corner of the Southern Kingdom Palace, but found nothing strange.

Nangong Yan hid the person very well.

When Yan Jingshuo brought Yingyi back to their residence, they only saw Yanhuo and Shaoyao standing blankly at the door.

"What's wrong with you? Where's the princess?"

Yan Jingshuo saw that their expressions were not right and asked quickly.

"Master, I failed to protect the princess. Please punish me?"

When he saw his master coming back, he immediately knelt down and admitted his mistake.

"It's none of Master Yanhuo's business. It was me who let the young lady go. If you want to punish me, just punish me."

Shaoyao also knelt down.

"What do you mean? What happened to Xi'er?"

Yan Jingshuo frowned as he listened. A feeling of uneasiness instantly came over him, and the aura around him became fierce.

"Master, please forgive me. The princess secretly ran into the palace because she was worried about your safety."

Yanhuo lowered his head and spoke in a deep voice, but as soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped away by Yan Jingshuo.

"Master Fireworks, are you okay?"

Shaoyao quickly ran to Yanhuo and wanted to help him up, but Yanhuo raised his hand to stop her.

"Yanhuo, what did the king tell you before he left?"

Yan Jingshuo was so angry that he clenched his fists and veins bulged.

"Remember, protect the princess and never let her sneak out."

Yanhuo immediately stood up and knelt, swallowing blood foam with difficulty and said.

"Then why does this happen?"

Yan Jingshuo turned his back, shaking with anger.

He should have agreed to Chu Xi's request and taken her with him. It turned out that she would be safe only under his nose.

But it's too late to say anything now.

"Sir, this has nothing to do with Master Yanhuo. I let the young lady go without permission. If you want to punish me, then punish me."

Shaoyao kowtowed hard towards Yan Jingshuo, and her forehead was soon broken, with blood flowing down from the corners of her eyes.

"Peony, do you know what the imperial palace is like? How dare you let your young lady leave without permission?"

Yan Jingshuo frowned unhappily as he looked at Shaoyao.

"But the young lady said that she was worried about you. She also said that if the uncle comes back, she will give this to him."

Shaoyao took out a letter from her arms.

Upon seeing this, Yingyi immediately took the letter and handed it to Yan Jingshuo.

Yan Jingshuo opened the letter with trembling hands, and the first sentence that caught his eyes was:

Your Majesty, please do not be angry and do not punish Yanhuo and Shaoyao. It was she who gave Yanhuo the drug without permission.

She also said that if she successfully sneaked into the palace, she would leave a mark in the palace, and the prince would only need to follow the mark to find her.

After reading the letter, Yan Jingshuo put it in his arms and went straight back to his room.

Only Yingyi, Yanhuo and Shaoyao were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

"I'm sorry, Master Yan Huo, I shouldn't have poisoned you."

Shaoyao looked at the injured Fireworks, feeling filled with guilt.

"It's none of your business. The princess is not weak to begin with. If she really wants to go, none of us can stop her."

Yanhuo had no intention of blaming Shaoyao. From Shaoyao's perspective, she was definitely helping the princess.

“Master Fireworks… wuwu… I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry… wuwu…”

When Shaoyao saw that Yanhuo was injured, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Peony... stop crying. The master doesn't really want to kill me."

Yanhuo looked at Shaoyao who was crying and gasping for breath, and his heart inexplicably wrenched, so he quickly spoke out to comfort her.

"Come on, I'll help you down to rest."

Ying Yi sighed softly, then reached out his hand towards the fireworks.

"Thanks, brother."

Yanhuo looked at Yingyi with gratitude, then reached out his hand and stood up from the ground with the help of Yingyi's strength.

Yan Jingshuo became very irritated after returning to his room. He wished he could go find Chu Xi immediately, but it was daytime and there was no way he could sneak into the palace. He had to wait until night.

And the palace is so big, it is not easy to find her quickly.

"Xi'er... Is he really that important? Would he allow you to take such a risk?"

Yan Jingshuo held the letter in his hand and began to talk to himself.

He really didn't want to admit the place Nangong Yu held in Chu Xi's heart, but he had to admit that Xi'er really had him in her heart.

Yan Jingshuo's slightly cool fingers gently stroked the letter in his hand, with an indelible melancholy on his face.

Now he feels very scared, afraid that Xier will choose to abandon him for Nangong Yu?

The golden sunlight shone through the window onto Yan Jingshuo, but he could not feel a trace of warmth. Instead, the dazzling light made his eyes dizzy.

dong dong dong...

"Master, His Majesty has a message..."

Yingyi knocked on the door and spoke respectfully while standing at the door.

"Come in and talk"

Yan Jingshuo slowly put away Chu Xi's letter, raised his head and looked out the window without saying a word.

Yingyi pushed the door open and walked in, handing a red note to Yan Jingshuo:

"Master, His Majesty sent someone to tell me that he has already calculated a suitable date for the wedding, and there are three dates to choose from. His Majesty also specifically asked that you choose it yourself."

Yan Jingshuo stared at the bright red post in front of him for a long time before speaking:

"Let's put it here for now and talk about it after the princess comes back."

"Yes……"

Yingyi obviously noticed that Yan Jingshuo was in a bad mood, but he didn't say much about his master's affairs. He responded and turned to leave the room.

After Chu Xi had studied the palace rules for two days in the palace, he was finally officially assigned a task today.

Some of the new palace maids were assigned to the laundry department, some were assigned to plant flowers and plants in the imperial garden, while Chu Xi and others were assigned to various places to be responsible for cleaning.

"Master, I feel the breath of the Holy Gu is getting closer."

At this time, Chu Xi was following the aunt who was in charge, and finally stopped at a particularly deserted house.

"We're here. From now on, you two will be responsible for the sanitation here."

The aunt in charge stopped and spoke calmly to Chu Xi and Li Ling.

"Aunt, it's so quiet here, can we change places?"

Li Ling approached her aunt and secretly put a silver ingot into the hands of the aunt in charge.

The housekeeper quickly stuffed the silver ingot into her sleeve, her face suddenly lit up with joy, and she smiled at Li Ling:

"You are quite clever, but everyone has just been assigned, and if you move around randomly, people will definitely be suspicious. When the emperor starts to take concubines, your aunt will definitely consider transferring you to serve him first."
