Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

But after thinking it over, it all seemed like a dead end.

He cursed his mother, that vile woman, for not only having an affair herself, but also dragging him down with her.

If he is the father's son, then what does Cang Linxiao have to do with it?

What one thinks in one's heart is none of the concern of those above; a deep, cold voice echoed from above, each word distinct and clear:

"The eldest prince has colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country. His crime deserves to be punished. The prince is subject to the same law as the common people. He shall be imprisoned in the eldest prince's residence for now, and his fate shall be dealt with after my birthday."

Every word that fell into Cang Linye's ears was like a thunderbolt, leaving him in disbelief.

"No, Father, spare me! This is fake, this must be fake."

Cang Linye even suspected that he was having a nightmare, and that this was a nightmare.

He remembered that he was a reborn person, and he should live longer, or at the very least become an emperor, just like in his previous life.

He didn't understand why he was suddenly going to die.

"Impossible, this must be fake, this is a dream."

"It must be in a dream."

The little black cat, watching the drama unfold, almost burst out laughing: "Your Highness, he's probably going to go crazy."

He thought he was the protagonist after being reborn, but he couldn't even pass the first level, and that was it.

Akahoshi chuckled twice: "Ayu handled it all. This eldest prince isn't all that great after all."

Thinking this, the door opened from the outside, and Akahoshi could already smell the fragrance of bathing flower petals, so Ayu had just gone to take a bath.

250 quickly went into the small dark room, leaving Akahoshi to throw her nightgown out from under the covers and then lie down pretending to be asleep.

This is the scene that Cang Linyu saw when he walked around the screen: a beauty lying on the bed, the quilt barely covering her firm and snow-white chest muscles.

Looking up at that excessively beautiful face, he had thought about it for many days, and finally came back to see it.

As Akahoshi heard footsteps approaching, her lips were touched by a soft touch, and before she even opened her eyes, she was met with a passionate kiss.

Her eyelashes trembled, but Akahoshi had no intention of "waking up".

Cang Linyu saw through Chi Xing's little scheme, but he didn't expose her. Instead, he slowly climbed up and leisurely started setting fires all over Chi Xing's body.

He whispered in Akahoshi's ear, "Doesn't Akahoshi welcome me back?"

Akahoshi remained silent, as if she were sulking.

Cang Linyu's hand touched one of the handcuffs and easily opened it: "Is this okay?"

Akahoshi remained unresponsive.

Cang Linyu seemed to have anticipated this, and after lifting the blanket, he lowered his head.

"Forehead……"

Akahoshi's hands trembled as she grabbed his hair, not daring to use too much force, then relaxed her grip a little.

A chill ran down his spine, and Akahoshi couldn't help but forgive him quickly.

But this time, he wanted Cang Linyu to take the initiative.

The consequence of taking the initiative was that after staying in the room for two days, Chi Yanlan came to her door asking to see Chi Xing.

After much pleading and cajoling, Akahoshi finally managed to untie the chain on her other hand, but Sorin had a condition.

"You are not allowed to leave the palace without permission. If you do leave the palace, you must be accompanied by me."

Chi Xing nodded like a chick pecking at rice. Cang Linyu personally helped him comb his hair and get dressed before they went out to see Chi Yanlan.

After chatting for a while, Cang Linyu noticed that Chi Yanlan seemed hesitant to speak, so he gave them some space to talk.

"Little brother, has he bullied you?" This was Chi Yanlan's first concern.

She calls Akahoshi "little brother" in private, but "royal brother" in other situations, which Akahoshi is already used to.

"No, the prince treats me very well."

Chi Yanlan still looked guilty: "I'm sorry, it was my fault for not realizing Mother and Father's intentions, which caused you..."

If she were the one being forced into marriage, she would probably hate the culprit to the core. She never expected that Akahoshi would actually comfort her instead.

"Sister, I'm not angry. The Prince treats me very well. You can ask the servants in the manor if you don't believe me."

Chi Yanlan felt a pang of sadness: "Silly brother, all the servants in this manor are Lin Wang's men, they will definitely speak up for him."

Chixing: "Royal sister, let me take you to see my courtyard. Oh, by the way, I've been living with the prince in the main courtyard all the time, and I've hardly ever lived there. You'll see when you go."

"I'm not lying."

Upon going outside, Chixing saw Ayu still waiting in the courtyard. She took Ayu's hand and beckoned her elder sister to follow her.

Led by the new butler, the group strolled around the garden and then went directly to the Star Pavilion, which had many more additions than it had a few days earlier.

Even the pet snake that Akahoshi liked to keep was there, which gave Akayanlan a big fright.

"This courtyard...is it yours?" Chi Yanlan had to ask again.

The courtyard was smaller than her princess's mansion, but the value of the things inside was comparable to that of the princess's mansion.

Most importantly, this is Zhanbei Kingdom, and the furnishings in Xingchen Pavilion were all collected by Cang Linyu from various countries. The decoration style is a complete replica of the Fengqi Kingdom's palace courtyard.

"Also, I've been wearing these clothes ever since I came here. The prince sent someone to find Feng Qiguo's embroidery lady."

Chi Xing whispered in Chi Yanlan's ear, "I'm living much better now than when I was a prince in Fengqi Kingdom, so don't worry, Royal Sister."

Chi Yanlan felt much relieved, and her guilt lessened considerably. However, upon seeing the things in the courtyard, she suddenly asked:

Would the people of Zhanbei Kingdom like products from Fengqi Kingdom?

Chixing didn't understand these things, so she turned to ask Cang Linyu, who then looked at the girl in front of her again.

"Yes, your tea, porcelain, accessories, etc., are very popular here."

Chi Yanlan pondered for a moment before saying, "Would Your Highness trouble you to send someone to accompany me around these days? I'm quite curious."

"Naturally."

Akahoshi kept in touch with her, and after everyone left, Akahoshi received a large stack of account books from the butler.

"Your Highness, this is a shop belonging to the Prince's residence. The Prince said he would entrust it to you to manage."

Akahoshi:......

He pulled the ledger over, glanced at it a few times, then pushed it away, saying, "I don't understand it."

Even if he could understand it, he would say he didn't. Chi Xing almost jumped up. As a military general on the battlefield, he didn't care about such things.

"Your Highness is welcome to learn."

Akahoshi looked utterly rejected and stood up to go to the study to find Cang Linyu.

She sat nestled on someone's lap, looking every bit the shrew.

“Ayu, I don’t want to learn this. The shop is yours, it’s your responsibility to manage it.”

Cang Linyu pondered: "These things used to be handled by the steward, but I've heard that the princess should be in charge of managing them."

Chixing: "I can't manage it, there are too many. Your Highness, you should find someone else."

The hand around her waist tightened, and Akahoshi's heart skipped a beat. She quickly corrected herself, "I meant checking the accounts and managing the shops. Of course, the position of princess can only be mine."

Cang Linyu buried her head in his shoulder and gently bit it, then voiced her guess: "Your royal sister wants to do business with Zhanbei Kingdom, doesn't Xingxing want to join in?"

"You support it?" Akahoshi asked in surprise.

"Why not? The Zhanbei Kingdom and the Fengqi Kingdom are not frequently at war. Besides, your arrival this time has brought hundreds of years of peace. Xingxing, you are their lucky star."

Akahoshi lowered her head and pecked his lips, then smiled: "I'm your lucky star."
