Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

Murong Yu glanced at the small stone and said, "If you can't take good care of the young master, do you want to be punished?"

Little Stone hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy: "This servant deserves to die."

Seeing that Murong Yu was really going to punish Xiao Shizi, Chi Xing frowned: "Alright, it was my own fault for rushing out."

Murong Yu then said, "Then hurry up and get the cloak for the young master?"

"Yes, slave, go right away."

Xiao Shizi took out a cloak and, at Murong Yu's prompting, draped it over Chi Xing.

Chixing tightened his grip on the sleeve. In the past, Ayu would always put it on him herself, but today Xiaoshizi did it.

"Why don't you go back to sleep for a while? I'm going to the flower viewing banquet, I reckon..."

"Are you going to be home late again tonight?" Akahoshi asked.

Murong Yu lowered her head to tidy her clothes, avoiding eye contact with Chi Xing.

He nodded: "Yes, Xingxing should eat and go to bed on time."

Without waiting for Akahoshi's reply, he continued, "Alright, I'm going now."

"you……"

Watching him leave quickly, Akahoshi finally managed to say, "Aren't you taking me with you?"

Little Stone advised from the side, "Young master, it's chilly in the morning, you should go back to sleep."

Akahoshi sat in the chair thinking for a while, then stood up and said, "I want to go too."

He turned around and went back to change his clothes. He put on a plain white robe with a white belt embroidered with cloud patterns around his waist, and his hair was casually tied back with a matching hairband.

His face was already androgynous, but this outfit didn't make him look effeminate; however, compared to other men, he appeared somewhat sickly.

The teenager rushed to the Imperial Garden and saw not only the princes, but also some young men from noble families reciting poems.

Not far away, some young ladies from prominent families were playing and frolicking, admiring flowers and composing poems.

Unable to find Murong Yu anywhere in sight, Chi Xing secretly regretted leaving in such a hurry. If only he had known…

"Who is that? She looks even more delicate than a woman."

"You're not even fully grown yet, what are you doing here?"

"Haha, the Second Prince is absolutely right."

Several people emerged from the artificial hill beside them and blocked Akahoshi's path.

Four or five people were much taller than him. Chi Xing took a few steps back and looked up slightly before he could see that they were Murong Tuo and his study companion. He didn't recognize the others next to him, but they were probably young masters from noble families.

One of them, upon seeing Akahoshi's face clearly, revealed a lewd smile.

"Tsk, when did such a handsome young master appear in the capital? Which family are you from?"

Those of them who studied at the Imperial Academy naturally had never seen the Red Star.

However, Murong Tuo knew that staring at Chi Xing's face, he couldn't help but grind his back teeth.

Wang Qi, who was standing next to him, laughed and said, "This one is the hostage sent by Bei Di back then. He has been in the palace all this time, so you naturally haven't seen him."

One of them, upon hearing this, felt somewhat apprehensive. What the others didn't know was that his aunt was a concubine in the palace, and once when his grandmother visited him, she seemed to have mentioned that the Empress was very fond of this hostage.

He was about to say something, but seeing that Murong Tuo seemed to dislike the hostage, he silently shut his mouth, deciding it was better to avoid trouble.

"Oh? It's you, young master. Where are you going? Tell your brother and he'll take you there."

"Your Highness, please be careful. This man is frail and weak. Be careful he doesn't fall or bump into you and then try to extort money from you."

This was said by Wang Qi. He always held grudges, and every time Chi Xing complained to Murong Yu, Murong Yu would make things difficult for them, both openly and secretly.

Without Murong Yu by their side this time, they'd better teach these Northern Barbarians a lesson.

Chi Xing rolled her eyes, ignored them, and turned to find Murong Yu.

They were afraid that Murong Yu would talk to any young lady or girl; A-Yu couldn't be involved with anyone else.

But as soon as he took a step forward, the prince reached out and stopped him.

He spoke in a flippant tone: "Little beauty, why don't you come home with me? I'll protect you from being bullied, how about it?"

The others all looked like they had just realized something.

Wang Qi smiled and flattered, "So the Prince has taken a liking to him? He's just a hostage; how could he be worthy of the Prince?"

"That's right, I think it's best to just have fun with it. The Princess is really hoping that the Prince will get married and have children."

250 tells Akahoshi: "[The eldest princess's son, Prince Yongning's grandson Qiming.]"

Chi Xing had a good idea of ​​what was going on. He had mentioned this princess to the emperor during a casual conversation before; she was a troublemaker, and the emperor didn't particularly like her.

He never imagined that one day he would also get involved with this person.

Thinking to himself, Chi Xing looked up and met his gaze, whispering, "Prince, Sun Qiming?"

Upon meeting Chi Xing's gaze, Sun Qiming's pupils dilated for a moment before returning to normal.

He chuckled wickedly, "So, young master, you've also heard of this prince. How about we become friends?"

Akahoshi shook his head: "No, I have other matters to attend to, I'll be leaving now."

Sun Qiming immediately stepped aside to let him pass, saying, "Alright, the Prince of Japan will come to see the young master again later."

"Cousin, are you just going to let him go like this?"

Murong Tuo knew Sun Qiming well. Relying on his mother being a princess, he was lawless and bullied men and women. He had even previously played a girl from an official's family to death.

The official complained to the Prefect of the Capital, and the Princess went to make a scene for several days. Later, because there was no evidence, Sun Qiming was found not guilty.

However, the official's life took a turn for the worse. The princess held a grudge and took revenge on him both openly and secretly. The official's family suffered greatly and he eventually had no choice but to resign and return to his hometown.

Murong Tuo learned about this from Consort Luo, who advised him not to offend Sun Qiming, as the little devil was troublesome.

Sun Qiming letting Chixing go today was something he hadn't expected. He had anticipated that Sun Qiming would severely humiliate Chixing, or even do something else.

Seeing that the exciting show that was about to begin was about to end, Murong Tuo was immediately unhappy.

Sun Qiming seemed not to understand. By the time he came to his senses, Chi Xing was nowhere to be seen.

He frowned: "Why did I let him go? Why didn't you stop him?"

Murong Tu cursed himself inwardly as a useless piece of trash, but had no choice but to smooth things over:

"We can't hide forever, so let's chase after them."

He lifted his foot and walked towards the path where Akahoshi had left.

These artificial hills wind and twist, and beyond them lies the lake. In the middle of the lake is a wooden bridge, and across the lake is a plum grove.

Looking out from the distant Akasaka, a handsome young man stood in the plum garden, holding a bunch of plum branches adorned with red plum blossoms in his arms. Opposite the young man stood a girl in a pink dress.

Her heart seemed to stop beating, and Akahoshi, as if torturing herself, refused to look away, staring at the handsome young man with the beautiful woman.

The pebbles behind us finally caught up.

"Oh dear, young master, wait for me, this cloak."

He draped the cloak over Akahoshi's shoulders and suddenly noticed that Akahoshi's eyes were red, as if she was about to cry.

"What...what happened? Young master, why don't you go back? What if His Highness finds out you ran away..."

Akahoshi's lips were pale, as if she couldn't feel the cool breeze blowing from the lake, and she walked onto the wooden bridge in the lake.

"Hey, here it is."
