Chapter 1167: Chapter 990, You Have to Cover Me

On the day Xiao Moreng arrived, Daohua sent the meals directly to Laiyi Hall to ensure he could rest well without the need to travel back and forth.

Nanny Fan’s smile deepened upon seeing that all the dishes were plain and easy to digest, good for recuperating.

Although the Prince hadn’t fallen ill on the journey from Beijing to Xiliang, the long carriage ride had still affected his appetite significantly.

Now that he had just arrived in Xiliang, it was not suitable to eat food that was too greasy.

After a bath, Xiao Moreng came out to find that Nanny Fan had already set the table with food, most of which were his favorites, which made his lips involuntarily curl up into a smile.

While attending to Xiao Moreng’s meal, Nanny Fan said with a smile, "On the way here, this old servant was worried that Your Highness might not get used to living in the Prince Residence. But now, seeing the Princess Consort has taken care of everything for Your Highness, it seems I was worried over nothing."

Xiao Moreng arched his eyebrows, a childlike pride in his tone: "Auntie has always been good to me since I was young. I remember when I played at the Four Seasons Manor as a child, Auntie would always make me delicious food personally."

Nanny Fan, hearing Xiao Moreng’s fondness for the Princess Consort and knowing the Princess Consort’s affection for the Prince, was secretly pleased. In Xiliang, the Fourth Prince Residence lacked connections, but with the Princess Consort’s care and protection, she felt much more at ease about the Prince’s wellbeing.

After dinner, Xiao Moreng went to rest. He got up early the next day, moved his body around in the courtyard, and after washing up, he stepped out of the courtyard towards the main building.

Not long after he stepped out, Xiao Moreng saw a small boy with a fierce look, dressed in short robes and shorts, rushing towards him at high speed.

The boy was fast, not because he knew martial arts, but because he was standing on something Xiao Moreng had never seen before—a thing that was carrying the boy swiftly towards him.

Xiao Moreng’s personal eunuchs, Little Fuzi and Little Shunzi saw someone charging straight at their young master and hurriedly stood in front of Xiao Moreng to protect him.

"Zii~"

The anticipated collision did not happen. Daozi performed a beautiful emergency brake two to three meters away from Xiao Moreng, stopping the skateboard firmly in its tracks.

Daozi hopped off the skateboard, his round eyes curiously examining Xiao Moreng in front of him.

Xiao Moreng recognized Daozi’s identity. The only child daring enough to dash about in the Prince Residence like this was his cousin, who had been named and appointed Princely Heir by the Imperial Grandfather at birth—there was no other who dared to do so.

Daozi tilted his head, sizing up Xiao Moreng, "My mother says, you are my brother?"

Xiao Moreng nodded with a smile.

Daozi’s eyes lit up, "The brothers in other families would always protect their younger siblings. Would you do the same? If I were bullied, you would stand up for me, right?"

Xiao Moreng said with a smile, "Of course I would."

Having received the answer he wanted, Daozi’s eyes crinkled with satisfaction, and he reached out to pinky promise with Xiao Moreng.

Looking at the chubby little hand before him, Xiao Moreng felt a sense of novelty.

He himself had a legitimate younger brother, but the brother was only three years old and Xiao Moreng, occupied with his studies, had moved to the front residence early on, seeing his brother only during greeting and meal times, seldom playing together.

There were half-brothers in the residence, too, but he rarely interacted with them.

Although Xiao Moreng was the legitimate eldest son of the Fourth Prince Residence, having grown up to this age, he had not truly experienced the joy of being a big brother.

Now, an unexpected request from a cousin to be looked after piqued his interest immensely.

Xiao Moreng smiled and stretched out his hand, making a pinky promise with Daozi.

After the promise, Daozi’s eyes beamed with joy, "Mother said, brothers fight tigers together and fathers and sons join forces in battle. I’m the eldest in our family, with no one to look after me. I’ve always felt somewhat weak and alone, and just as I felt this, you arrived."

As he spoke, he patted Xiao Moreng’s hand.

"Since you are my brother, you must protect me well."
