Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

Chi Xing never imagined he would meet A Yu like this one day. His heart ached as if it were being torn apart. He pulled her into his arms and gently stroked her back with his large, powerful hand.

She said softly, "It's okay, Ayu, it's okay."

Qi Siyu gasped for breath, her eyes tightly shut, tears streaming down her face. Her right hand gripped Chi Xing's clothes tightly, and she let out a helpless whimper like a young animal.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Ayu, I'm here, I'm with you, it's alright..."

Chixing held him as they sat on the bed, trying to calm him down, and then channeled divine power into him.

His healing powers were not very effective in the small world, especially for this kind of illness, where there was almost no cure.

But Chi Xing still clung to a sliver of hope and desperately channeled divine power into Qi Siyu's body until Qi Siyu's body could no longer withstand it.

As if he had regained some strength, Qi Siyu bit Chi Xing hard on the chest, causing Chi Xing to wince in pain.

But instead of pushing him away, he endured the pain and gently comforted him. Akahoshi felt that he had never spoken in such a gentle tone before.

Qi Siyu quickly lost the strength to struggle and leaned weakly against Chi Xing's chest, motionless.

"Ayu, can you hear me?" Akahoshi asked softly.

After a while, Qi Siyu slowly opened his eyes, his gaze becoming vacant again.

Chi Xing chuckled and patted his head with his large hand, praising, "Hmm, you've opened your eyes. Yu is really amazing."

Qi Siyu still didn't react, but his eyes twitched slightly, which was caught by Chi Xing.

"Don't worry, Ayu will be alright."

This time, Qi Siyu's eyes were fixed on the distance, and he showed no reaction.

Akahoshi then looked around. Everything that could be smashed in the room had been smashed, and the floor was covered with porcelain shards and broken tables and chairs.

That maidservant probably had some dirty thoughts on her way to deliver the food, which caused the young prince to fall ill.

Akashi thought to himself, "She really died too easily."

People of this era had no idea what bipolar disorder was; they just thought the young prince had gone mad. Apart from the people who brought him food, no one else dared to enter the inner courtyard.

Footsteps came from the doorway. Chixing looked out and saw a young eunuch carrying a food box walking over with his head down. After putting down the food box, he immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Your Highness, the food is ready. This servant has placed it here for you."

The young eunuch was trembling with fear, not even daring to look up.

Just as he was about to get up, the blood on the ground meandered to his feet. The little eunuch was so frightened that he trembled like a leaf and crawled away.

Chixing retrieved information about the young eunuch from his memories. This person was Qi Siyu's personal eunuch, who took care of his daily life.

Akahoshi called out to the person, "Wait."

A magnetic voice came through, and the eunuch realized it wasn't the Crown Prince's voice, which terrified him.

Could it be an assassin? There's no one else in this inner courtyard. Could this blood be His Highness the Crown Prince?

The little eunuch gritted his teeth, about to shout, "Assassin!"

Looking up, he saw his own Crown Prince in someone else's arms. This person was dressed in black robes, wearing a purple-gold crown, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a faint smile on his lips.

This person... isn't this that scoundrel from the Eastern Depot?

This person is a sworn enemy of His Highness the Crown Prince, so why are they hugging each other?

Wait, is he planning to take advantage of the Crown Prince's illness to kill him?!

Chixing ignored what the little eunuch was thinking and coldly ordered:

"Arrange a clean bedroom for His Highness, and I, the Grand Eunuch, will personally take care of him."

The young eunuch's name was Xiao Yezi. Upon hearing that it was for the prince's good, Xiao Yezi led the people to other rooms.

"Lord, Lord Lord, why are you here in the middle of the night? My prince should be asleep." Little Ye couldn't help but speak.

His Highness is currently ill and not fully conscious. If he wakes up and finds that this scoundrel has hugged him, he will probably be so angry that he will want to kill him.

You must know that His Highness the Crown Prince has a bad temper. Although he only executes those who have committed heinous crimes, he can't do this every now and then.

Akahoshi scoffed, "Go to sleep? Didn't they just bring over dinner?"

Xiao Yezi then remembered that His Highness had not yet had dinner, and there was also the dead palace maid on the ground.

"This servant has spoken too much, but His Highness does not like to be close to people. Eunuch, you should leave quickly." Little Yezi was unwilling to give up and wanted to send him away.

"Does he look like he's rejecting me?" Chi Xing picked up Qi Siyu and carried him to the table to sit down.

Qi Siyu was placed on his lap without any reaction. If it weren't for his eyes being open, Xiao Yezi would have suspected that His Highness had been knocked unconscious.

He could only feel anxious. He was usually afraid that His Highness would go berserk and kill people, but now he wished His Highness would struggle faster.

But His Highness was clearly ignoring everyone again, a state that usually occurred during the day.

Without thinking twice, Xiao Yezi quickly placed the food on the table.

"Your Highness, this servant will serve you your meal."

Qi Siyu, who was in a state of confusion, was unable to feed himself and used to be fed by Xiao Yezi.

Akahoshi waved his hand: "Go find someone to clean up those filthy things. Go down, and don't tell anyone I'm here, or else..."

Xiao Yezi immediately replied, "Yes, this servant will take care of it right away."

When they arrived at the bedroom, Xiao Yezi finally saw the palace maid clearly. Wasn't she the one who had just entered the East Palace the day before yesterday?

He shook his head. Over the years, too many people had been bewitched by His Highness's appearance, each one desperately trying to climb into his bed, only to be chased away by His Highness every time.

This one is even more reckless, actually trying to get close to His Highness the Crown Prince while he was ill; he's truly courting death.

Xiao Yezi went outside and found a few guards to handle the situation. Then she found the head eunuch of the East Palace and asked him to give these palace servants a warning so that they wouldn't all try to climb the social ladder.

His Highness the Crown Prince is not someone anyone can lay a finger on. In Xiao Yezi's heart, even the Prime Minister's daughter, Murong Wei, is not worthy of His Highness.

Inside the bedroom, Chi Xing gently coaxed Qi Siyu to eat. Qi Siyu was extremely obedient at this moment, opening his mouth whenever he was told to, but he started to cry after only a few bites.

Akahoshi thought he was injured somewhere, but after checking him and finding no wounds, he was relieved.

Qi Siyu drank a bowl of porridge, and Chixing tried to coax him to eat a few bites of side dishes, but Qi Siyu kept his mouth tightly shut and refused all food.

Helpless, Akahoshi had no choice but to carry him to wash up.

During this time, Qi Siyu was like a delicate wooden puppet that did not move, letting Chixing hold her and wipe her face and hands.

When you're tired, just close your eyes and stay still.

Akahoshi felt both sorry for him and excited about the experience, so she carried him to bed and coaxed him to sleep.

Before Qi Siyu woke up, Chi Xing went out and called out his subordinates who were hiding in the shadows. He instructed them on matters concerning the Eastern Depot and asked them to take sick leave on his behalf.

After that, she devoted herself to taking care of Qi Siyu.

250 couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, in this world, you and the young prince are... are mortal enemies. Every time the young prince does something bad, the Grand Eunuch punishes him, though it's always a minor punishment as a warning."
