Chapter 232: Chaperone

Because of Xiaoyi's arrival, Zhuang Zhuang became much happier. He usually had nothing to do at home with Xiaoguo, but now, he was running around the village with Xiaoyi and Xiaohu.

At first, Xiaoguo felt that it was a little dangerous. After all, Xiaoyi was the crown prince, so she followed him around the village initially. However, she quickly stopped thinking this way.

Although the Imperial Guards could not be seen hanging around the village, they were, in fact, everywhere.

This time, Xiaohu was bringing Zhuang Zhuang and Xiaoyi up a tree. Although the tree was not high, it was quite difficult for the two boys, who had never climbed a tree before. Xiaoyi lost his footing and almost fell. Xiaoguo reacted quickly and reached forward to grab him, but she was still one step behind.

Two men appeared out of nowhere and caught Xiaoyi steadily from both sides. Before he could react, he had already been placed onto a tree branch.
