Use XML encryption. It is supported directly in .NET through the EncryptedXml class.

There is an example on MSDN here: How to: Encrypt XML Elements with Asymmetric Keys.

Note that you should use the public key to encrypt and the private key to decrypt (and not the other way around as you wrote in the question).

Upload the file using SSL/TLS (e.g., with HTTPS or a Socket+SslStream) and let the server require the client to present an X.509 client certificate.

I would suggest using the RijndaelManaged class. This is a good example of its use.
