Crossing the World: This Prince is a Little Sweet

On the other hand, Prime Minister Xiao had a look of anxiety on his face. After all, Chu Xi was the future crown prince. If anything happened to Chu Xi, wouldn't the world change hands?

Prime Minister Xiao was very clear about Prince Jing's intentions, because the Emperor Jing had tried to win her over in private, but seeing that she was incorruptible and too upright, and was highly valued by His Majesty, the Emperor Jing did not take action against her for fear that the matter would be exposed.

Moreover, after spending some time together, Prime Minister Xiao admired Chu Xi's talent and knowledge very much, and she had her own unique insights on handling court affairs, which were more comprehensive than those of the old ministers, and she always considered the people.

It can be seen that Chu Xi is a rare wise ruler, and Prime Minister Xiao began to recognize Chu Xi from the bottom of his heart.

The last time someone received her recognition was the Grand Prince, Huang Junqi, who passed away more than ten years ago.

It seems that she also had a sudden illness... and then...

"Have you seen all the doctors?"

Prime Minister Xiao didn't dare to think further, for she was afraid that the tragedy of history would repeat itself.

“I’ve seen them all…”

Huang Lan's expression became extremely sad as she spoke. She choked up and continued, "If you know of any famous doctors, please bring them here to help. If anyone can cure my eldest grandson, I will reward her handsomely and promote her to a higher position."

"Yes, we will do our best." The ministers kowtowed one after another.

In the following days, Chu Xi's palace was visited by a group of officials and doctors of some fame. They all went in with great ambitions and came out dejected.

Chu Xi and Huang Junwan have had a hard time dealing with these people these days.

"What quack doctors are here? None of them can diagnose the disease accurately. They also say that the patient's health is too poor and the evil wind has entered the body."

After Huang Junwan sent an official away, she walked to Chu Xi's bedside, sat down and complained.

Chu Xi, who was still lying there, saw that there was no one else in the hall, so she threw off the quilt and got out of bed, stretched her muscles and bones, and smiled and replied to her mother: "Mom, judging from the symptoms, their judgment is indeed correct. It is a manifestation of cold."

"Since it is a symptom of cold, didn't you say that taking medicine according to the prescription for treating cold will only make the condition worse?" Huang Junwan asked in confusion.

"This is the power of the drug maker, he can kill people without anyone knowing. Otherwise, Prince Jing would not be so calm and let these officials do whatever they want without worrying that the truth would be exposed." Chu Xi couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

"Luckily you know medical skills, otherwise we would have really fallen into her trap."

Huang Junwan still feels a little scared when she thinks about it now. She never expected that her aunt could do such a despicable thing. They are a family after all.

"Don't be afraid, mother. I'm here for everything. Everything will be fine."

Chu Xi noticed Huang Junwan's worry, walked up to her and comforted her with a smile, then thought of something and asked, "Mother, didn't father say he would come to you after dealing with the matter in Yan State? Why hasn't he arrived here in such a long time?"

"Yes, he said he would come here as soon as he resigned from his position in Yan State. He even wrote me a letter a few days ago, so it shouldn't be that fast."

"That was a few days ago?"

Chu Xi's eyelids twitched slightly, and suddenly a bad premonition came to his mind, feeling that things were not that simple.

"Five days ago"

Huang Junwan hadn't noticed anything was wrong yet and just answered Chu Xi's questions honestly.

"Mother, is there anyone protecting Daddy?"

"Your father is upright and has done nothing wrong. He doesn't need any expert to protect him."

When Huang Junwan mentioned Chu Feng, her face became shy and she felt that she had not followed the wrong person in her life.

"Oops"

Chu Xi was immediately horrified, guessing that something must have happened to her father, otherwise why wouldn't he have been able to reach Yunyuan Continent for so long?

Seeing Chu Xi's expression change, Huang Junwan also realized that something was wrong and said in panic: "Xi'er, could your father have been captured?"

"It's possible." Chu Xi nodded in affirmation.

"What? What should we do?"

Huang Junwan was so frightened that her legs went weak for a moment. Perhaps it was because she had lived too comfortably in the past ten years, which had reduced her ability to endure psychologically.

"Don't worry, mother. Let me think of a solution." Chu Xi hurriedly supported Huang Junwan.

"Xi'er, you have to save your father. Mother doesn't want anything to happen to him."

Huang Junwan grabbed Chu Xi's arm tightly, and tears began to well up in her eyes, looking like they were about to burst out.

"Mom, calm down first. Dad will be fine." Chu Xi patiently comforted Huang Junwan, then looked up and called out to Yanhuo.

Yan Huo immediately flashed in and bowed to Chu Xi: "Your subordinate greets the princess."

"Fireworks, do me a favor."

"Princess, please speak."

"Please help me pass a message to your master and ask him to send someone to find my father's whereabouts."

"Yes, I'll go right away." Yanhuo said and quickly got out.

Watching the fireworks disappear, Huang Junwan gradually calmed down: "Xi'er, do you think it's possible that Prince Jing did it?"

"It's 100 percent possible."

Chu Xi felt that apart from her, no one else would do such a thing.

On the top floor of the Dark Night Pavilion, Yan Jingshuo was watching in the room as spies from various places collected important information about the royal ministers and listed them one by one in a booklet, intending to give it to Chu Xi as a gift to her.

In this way, his little woman will be able to thrive in the court in the future without being constrained by the ministers.

At this time, Yanhuo appeared at the railing and knelt down to salute Yan Jingshuo.

"See Master."

"What happened?"

Yan Jingshuo stopped writing, raised his deep eyes and looked at Yanhuo who was kneeling on the ground.

"My Lord, the princess said that Prime Minister Chu might have been in trouble, and asked you to help send someone to look for him."

Yan Jingshuo's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he said in a deep voice: "Okay, I know, tell her not to worry, I will find a way to solve it."

"Yes"

After Yan Huo finished speaking, he stood up and wanted to leave.

"Wait a moment"

"Master?" Yanhuo stopped.

Yan Jingshuo finished writing the last two words, put down the brush in his hand, and then waited for a while until the ink on the booklet dried before closing it. He raised his hand and handed it to Yan Huo: "Give this to the princess."

"Yes" Fireworks hurried forward to take it.

After the fireworks were gone, he called out to Yingyi.

"Master, I am here."

"Check the situation in Yan State."

"Yes"

At this time, two men were imprisoned in Sun Yutang's dungeon, one was Chu Xi's father Chu Feng, and the other was Yan Dongli, the emperor of Yan State.

"Your Majesty, you shouldn't have followed me here."

Chu Feng shook his head and sighed.

"It's useless to say this now."

Yan Dongli stood up straight with his hands behind his back, looking at the moonlight outside the window. It was impossible for him not to follow him. Yan Jingshuo had already told him the news of finding Shangguan Yun, and that the poison in her body had been cured.

However, he kept writing letters saying that he was going to Yunyuan Continent, but Yan Jingshuo refused to tell him the route.
