By then, they had already reached the enemy country and had almost no contact with the Southern Kingdom, making it impossible for them to secretly send Wan Ge back.
So, in order to protect her, Nan Su did not alert anyone, but instead had Wange stay by his side.
He just hadn't expected that letting her get too close to him wouldn't be a good thing. Whenever the princes and princesses of the neighboring country bullied him, Wange would stand in front of him and suffer many injuries with him.
From the beginning, Nan Su thought she was a bit foolish to do something like this with him, for someone who wasn't worth it, completely unaware that she was falling into a dangerous trap.
But after she protected him time and time again, Nan Su was truly moved. Every time he saw her being bullied along with him, he felt more and more heartbroken.
Therefore, Nansu strives to grow up and improve so that they won't be bullied too badly in a foreign land.
Although Nansu tried his best to do so, being in a foreign country was always much more difficult. He tried his best to protect her, but in the end, she protected him instead.
In order to leave the neighboring country, Nan Su agreed to his father's conditions and, together with his father, defeated the enemy country from within, thus securing their return and his position as crown prince.
But as they were about to leave the neighboring country, the princess of that country shot an arrow at Nansu, and the arrow was poisoned. To protect herself, Wan Ge took the arrow, and she became the one who was poisoned.
After returning to the Southern Kingdom, Nan Su and the original owner's family worked desperately to find an antidote, and finally, a year ago, they completely cured the poison.
…
…
Nan Su wasn't initially curious about the little palace maid, but because Wan Ge glanced at her a couple of times, he turned around and looked at her seriously as well.
Upon seeing the other person's face clearly, Nan Su's expression instantly darkened, and he immediately said, "From now on, you will work in the laundry department."
Mu Xiyan immediately knelt on the ground, not understanding how she had offended Nan Su. After looking at her face, he punished her by sending her to the laundry department.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Is there anything I have done wrong?"
Do I need to explain my decision to you?
"This servant dares not, this servant obeys." Mu Xiyan clenched her hands tightly, and finally resigned herself to her fate.
Nan Su snorted coldly, then carefully helped Wan Ge up.
After Wan Ge got up, he picked up the coat beside him and gently helped her put it on before taking her hand and leading her to sit down on a stool.
"I instructed the imperial chef to make your favorite soup. Please try it."
Wan Ge picked up the bowl and took a sip. The soup was very delicious, and it was also very warming to drink in the autumn and winter season.
Seeing Nan Su diligently serving himself, Wange didn't say anything to persuade him. He only felt at ease when he saw her finish her meal properly before he would eat properly.
So Wan Ge simply ate her meal properly.
…
After finishing her meal, Wan Ge finally asked Nan Su, "Why did you send that little palace maid to the laundry department?"
The laundry department did all the hard work, and the maids there were completely different from the maids who served the Empress.
Nan Su lowered her head slightly and simply replied, "I just feel like she's in my way."
After listening to his words and thinking about them carefully, Wan Ge remembered the face of the new female lead and seemed to understand why.
That woman bore a striking resemblance to the princess of the neighboring country, which is why Nan Su disliked him.
