The Prince Consort's Beloved

Chapter 72 The Evil Spirit That Harms the Country and the People

This was the last day for Yao Jinhua and her team to evacuate, and Bai Rou and her team were also preparing to go back.

The two sides parted at the foot of the mountain.

After this farewell, I don’t know when we will meet again.

Yao Jinhua took out a valuable jade bracelet and put it on Li Yuanrou's hand, saying that it was a relic of Xiao Luobai's mother, and asked Li Yuanrou to take good care of herself.

Li Yuanrou was very touched because Yao Jinhua asked her to take care of herself instead of taking care of Xiao Luobai.

She thought their aunt was really nice...

Yao Jinhua then gave the dragon-shaped jade pendant of the Helian royal family to Li Yuanrou, and asked her to keep it for Xiao Luobai. Since Xiao Luobai refused to take it, she could only give it to Li Yuanrou, hoping that one day Xiao Luobai could take this token back.

From then on, Yao Jinhua was no longer Yao Jinhua. She was Helian Yueli, a female general of Beiluo Kingdom who had fought in the battlefield and was admired by all the women of Beiluo Kingdom for her heroic spirit.

Xiao Luobai explained some of his business arrangements to Helian Yueli and Zhuge Hongzhan, and then prepared to leave with Li Yuanrou. He turned back and said, "Aunt, Master, take care."

Helian Yueli watched Bai Rou and the other person get on the carriage and couldn't help but sigh: "It's been a few years, and he hasn't called me like this again..."

Zhuge Hongzhan said mysteriously: "We'll see each other again..."

Helian Yueli looked at Zhuge Hongzhan again and said, "You have trained Xiaotian for so long, and you are just going to give up like this?"

Zhuge Hongzhan had an unfathomable expression: "He has learned a lot of medical skills. He should be able to help a lot with Luo Bai this time. Maybe... if we are lucky, he can even know where we came from..."

He paused, suddenly remembering something, and asked, "Did you put the jade pendant in Xiaotian's bag?"

"It's blocked."

Xiaotian had packed his bag neatly several days ago. He walked into Bai Rou and her carriage with his bag on his back, overjoyed. Seeing Xiao Luobai with a bad look on his face, he lowered his brows and sat cautiously beside Li Yuanrou, wishing he could hide in Li Yuanrou's sleeves.

Li Yuanrou also considerately comforted him that it was okay and not to be afraid, as she had already taken care of his brother.

Xiao Luobai's face was gloomy. A few days ago, Li Yuanrou asked him to take Xiaotian away, but Xiao Luobai refused without a second thought. However, under Li Yuanrou's sweet talk for several days in a row, Xiao Luobai lost himself again and lost his bottom line. He gave in and agreed to Xiaotian's request to go with her.

Looking at the silly Xiaotian at this time, he regretted it again. His situation was not completely free of danger. As far as he knew, Bei Luo had always had spies in Daiyue to investigate the whereabouts of him and Cuizhu, so he had been paying attention to the Zhao Mansion and sent people to secretly protect Xiao Cuizhu. If any clues were found out, he, Cuizhu, Li Yuanrou, and everyone around them would be in danger.

He also needs to devote his energy to dealing with King Yun. Now that Xiaotian follows him, it will only bring danger to Xiaotian.

With a serious face, he said in a deep voice: "Don't tell anyone that I'm your brother when you go out."

Xiaotian raised his head and called out weakly, "Brother-in-law."

Li Yuanrou couldn't help laughing and the more she thought about it, the funnier it got. She laughed so hard that she started pounding her thighs and tears came out of her eyes.

Xiao Luobai lifted the car curtain and took a deep breath of frustration...

The team marched in a huge procession. Daya and Qingfeng rode in the same carriage. Qingluan followed Li Yuanrou closely and drove the carriage of Bairou and the other two. Kunpeng had not been around in front of Qingluan for many days and no one knew where he had gone.

Li Yuanrou was particularly concerned about this kind of CP combination. She couldn't help but worry about Kunpeng and kept asking Xiao Luobai what to do.

Xiao Luobai was annoyed by her question, and said with a hint of jealousy: "Rou'er, can you pay more attention to me and pay less attention to others?"

Li Yuanrou said hurriedly, "Okay, okay." After a perfunctory reply, she began to ask him what he thought of Kunpeng and Qingluan. She was so persistent, as if she would not give up until she got an answer. Xiao Luobai had no choice but to say with insight, "Good relationships are always achieved naturally."

After hearing this, Li Yuanrou tilted his head in thought and indeed stopped asking questions.

Li Yuanrou started chatting with Xiaotian on the way. She heard that Xiaotian had lost his memory after falling and injuring his head. She asked him what he remembered and said that maybe he could find his family in the capital this time.

Xiaotian said he basically didn't remember anything.

Li Yuanrou asked him why his master didn't help him calculate at the beginning, didn't his master have the ability to do so?

Xiaotian said that he couldn’t check his birth date because he couldn’t remember it, and he didn’t want to look for his family, so he just wanted to be with her and Xiao Luobai.

Xiao Luobai looked at the two people chatting enthusiastically. He glanced at Xiaotian coldly. Xiaotian felt the chill and mustered up the courage to pretend that he was a man who stood tall and straightened his chest: "Sister-in-law, my brother-in-law is glaring at me."

Li Yuanrou couldn't help laughing when she heard these messy names.

Xiaotian leaned close to Li Yuanrou's face and whispered anxiously in her ear in a very weak voice: "Sister-in-law, please say something. Didn't you say you would support me in the future? I feel like my brother is going to hit me."

Xiao Luobai sneered: "Xiaotian, I really haven't hit you for a while." Xiaotian looked up in fear, and was facing Xiao Luobai's smiling face. Xiaotian shuddered, smiled guiltily, and said: "Sister-in-law, I'll go drive with Qingluan."

Xiaotian went out angrily. Xiao Luobai pulled Li Yuanrou to his side with a satisfied smile. Li Yuanrou scolded him: "Don't scare Xiaotian all the time. Look how scared the child is. You are the person he admires the most."

Xiao Luobai said unhappily: "It's troublesome. Da Ya left and Xiao Tian came. They both want to snatch you from me."

Li Yuanrou suppressed her laughter and said, "I'm almost growing on you, what else do you want?"

Xiao Luobai hugged him tighter: "It would be better if you really grew on me. After we go back..."

After returning, there will no longer be such carefree days as in Guanyun Village.

The days in Guanyun Village were leisurely and long-lasting, just like what he had imagined countless times. There were no twists and turns, no intrigues, just peaceful years.

The princess's guard of honor traveled with great fanfare, and after entering the city there were people leading the way, which was quite impressive.

Li Yuanrou even felt that Princess Shanyang's previous arrogance and extravagance were all excusable. Princess Shanyang used to be really majestic, and being majestic was really cool.

The noise outside the carriage was getting louder. Li Yuanrou lifted the curtain out of curiosity and heard bursts of cheers from women in the inns and restaurants on both sides of the road. Especially after she lifted the curtain, someone upstairs kept throwing handkerchiefs down.

Just when Li Yuanrou was confused, she heard an unknown woman shouting, "Prince Consort." Then there were louder cheers from women.

Li Yuanrou understood what was going on instantly. She turned her head and glanced at Xiao Luobai with anger in her eyes, and saw Xiao Luobai said calmly: "Put down the curtain."

Li Yuanrou lowered the curtain angrily, and the cheers really died down. She said bitterly, "Are these good girls? Even if the people of Dai Viet are open-minded, they can't covet my husband like this! It's so abominable!"

Xiao Luobai looked at her with a smile on his face, and as he looked at her he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Li Yuanrou became even angrier: "What are you laughing at, Xiao Luobai? You still have the nerve to laugh. You are a malefactor who brings disaster to the country and the people. You have brought disaster to the girls in the capital city and made them blush and their hearts beat fast..."

Li Yuanrou rubbed her temple anxiously: "You are going to use this stunning face to destroy the foundation of my Great Yue. When we get back, I will lock you up and not let you see anyone again, so as to avoid seducing the soul of some young girl or wife..."

Xiao Luobai glanced at her calmly, and asked in a very tricky way: "What did you call me?"

Li Yuanrou was even more furious when she heard this question. She took a few deep breaths and shouted angrily, "Call you Lao Liu!"

That night, Li Yuanrou paid a heavy price for her limited courage.
