After walking out, Yu Yunxi said seriously to Qian Ji, “Keep an eye on Nan Xun. Don’t let him commit suicide.”
“He’s such a proud and arrogant person. How could he commit suicide?” Qian Ji asked, puzzled.
“It’s because he’s proud and arrogant that he might commit suicide,” Yu Yunxi said in a complicated tone as she shook her head.
Nan Xun could not die, at least not until the negotiation was successful.
“If what Nan Xun said is true, you might have to personally go to Nanyue if you want to get rid of Liang Yang. You can’t let Liang Yang recruit more people, ” Yu Yunxi said grimly.
“Mm.” Feng Yili nodded.
When the duo arrived at the King of Xinan’s Residence, they saw the little bun sitting at the door. He propped his chin on his hands, squeezing his chubby cheeks together. He was already very sleepy at this moment, but he refused to go to bed. He shook his head from time to time, trying to stay awake.
Next to the bun, Little White was sprawled on the ground while Pinellia slept on its back. It was hard to distinguish their white fur from each other.
Hearing the commotion, the little bun looked up.
Little White and Pinellia’s eyes lit up.
“Father, Mother, you’re back!”
The little bun ran toward Yu Yunxi and Feng Yili with his short legs.
Yu Yunxi dismounted from the horse and hugged him. “Why aren’t you asleep yet?”
“Both of you weren’t back yet. I was worried and couldn’t sleep,” the little bun said softly.
At this time, Qian Jiao and Qian Mei walked over.
“County Princess, Little Master has been waiting for you since dinner. No matter how we tried to persuade him, he refused to sleep,” Qian Mei said helplessly.
Yu Yunxi patted the little bun’s head and said gently, “We just went out to deal with a small matter. There was no danger. You didn’t need to worry at all.” “But I want to wait for you anyway,” the little bun said stubbornly.
“Alright, alright, it’s been hard on you,” Yu Yunxi said, seeing that the little bun was so persistent.
Just as Yu Yunxi was about to carry the little bun up, Feng Yili beat her to it.
“I’ll carry him,” Feng Yili said in a deep voice.
Seeing that Feng Yili was about to speak again, the little bun hurriedly covered Feng Yili’s mouth and said, “Alright, alright, Father, I know you’re going to say I gained weight again.”
“No, I just wanted to tell you that I wanted to carry you,” Feng Yili said with a straight face.
“R-really?”
The little bun looked at Feng Yili, and the corners of his lips could not help but curl up.
“Of course. You’re my son. I naturally want to carry you,” Feng Yili said.
The little bun covered his mouth and giggled when he heard this. If he had a
tail like Pinellia, it would probably be raised up high at this moment.
Then, Qian Jiao reported to Yu Yunxi, “County Princess, you were right. Feng
Weiping appeared in the military camp earlier. She wanted to bring Crown
Prince Nan away, but she was scared to death by Little White.”
Yu Yunxi was not surprised. After all, that was the kind of person Feng Weiping was.
“Little White, you did well. I’ll give you a chicken drumstick tomorrow.” Yu Yunxi did not forget to praise Little White.
Little White raised its head, looking very proud when it heard Yu Yunxi’s words.
At this moment, another person appeared.
“Eldest Senior Brother, County Princess.”
Yu Yunxi turned around and saw Gao Shixuan holding something in her hand.
She asked lightly, “Miss Gao, why aren’t you asleep yet?”
“County Princess, I heard that you and Eldest Senior Brother went out to do something. I was worried you’d be hungry when you returned so I made some tonic soup for you. You should have some,” Gao Shixuan said gently as she lowered her head.
‘Tonic soup?’
Yu Yunxi pursed her lips and stared at Gao Shixuan, but she could not find anything wrong with Gao Shixuan’s expression.
When Gao Shixuan walked over, the little bun’s stomach grumbled. Upon hearing this, she smiled gently and said, “Junjin, you must be hungry as well. I prepared your share as well.”
However, the little bun frowned and leaned back when Gao Shixuan approached. Due to what happened before, he firmly believed that Gao Shixuan was not a good person.
Seeing the little bun’s reaction, Gao Shixuan’s eyes dimmed. The corners of her lips seemed to droop as she said dejectedly, “I went too far previously and scared you. It’s only right that you’re afraid of me.”
Then, Gao Shixuan bit her lip before she said again, “Eldest Senior Brother,
County Princess, if you don’t want it, I’ll bring the soup back.”
Just as Gao Shixuan turned around, Yu Yunxi said, “Wait a minute. Since Miss Gao personally brewed the tonic soup, how can I not drink it? Otherwise, I’d be wasting your good intentions. Moreover, look at the injuries on your hands.” As she spoke, Yu Yunxi looked at the burn marks on the back of Gao Shixuan’s hand.
Gao Shixuan quickly withdrew her hand and whispered, “I’ve embarrassed myself in front of the County Princess. I haven’t cooked in a long time so I was a little rusty.”
“There are servants in the residence. In the future, just let them handle matters like this. You don’t have to do it yourself,” Yu Yunxi said indifferently.
“Yes, I understand,” Gao Shixuan said obediently as she lowered her head. She was extremely docile as though she had no temper at all.
Yu Yunxi’s eyes flashed slightly as she looked at Gao Shixuan. It seemed like the latter had really turned over a new leaf. In the end, she asked, “What soup is it?”
“It’s chicken soup with medicinal herbs. It’s very useful to relieve exhaustion. All of you have been working hard on the matters regarding Nanyue. There’s nothing much I can do to help so I made the soup for you,” Gao Shixuan said in a low voice.
“Miss Gao, you’re really thoughtful. Coincidentally, I liked chicken soup a lot,”
Yu Yunxi said.
Just as Yu Yunxi was about to reach out for a bowl of soup, Qian Jiao called out worriedly, “County Princess.”
“It’s fine. Miss Gao won’t poison the soup. You’re thinking too much, Qian Jiao,” Yu Yunxi said softly. With that, she drank a bowl of soup.
It was really not poisonous.
After finishing a bowl, Yu Yunxi proceeded to finish the other two bowls.
Gao Shixuan’s expression finally changed when she saw this.
“County Princess, you…”
Yu Yunxi said nonchalantly, “I’m sorry, Miss Gao. I was hungry and thirsty so I drank all three bowls. You won’t mind, right?”
Gao Shixuan took a deep breath, and her expression quickly returned to normal. She said, “It’s great that you like the soup. I naturally don’t mind. It’s just that Eldest Senior Brother doesn’t have any to drink…”
“I don’t like soup,” Feng Yili said curtly before he left with the little bun in his arms.
“Your Eldest Senior Brother is a little cold to others. Don’t take offense. Miss Gao, you should rest early,” Yu Yunxi said with a smile before she went after Feng Yili.
After Yu Yunxi returned to Feng Yili’s side, she said with a shrug, “I tested the soup for poison for you. It’s not poisonous. However, I drank the soup your Little Junior Sister made for you. You won’t be angry, right?”
“Of course not,” Feng Yili replied calmly.
At this moment, the little bun leaned over and covered his mouth before he whispered to Yu Yunxi, “Mother, are you jealous? You don’t like others making soup for Father, right?”
