Eavesdropping on Fu Bao's inner thoughts, emptying the stored grain and fleeing the famine

According to the old emperor, many strange things have happened to Li Yuanyi since last year.

He suddenly acquired many treasures, and not only that, the people the old emperor sent to monitor Li Yuanyi often found that this second prince would always disappear without a trace.

It's as if... he can become invisible.

However, the spies monitoring the Second Prince also discovered a problem: the Second Prince was the one who could become invisible, but his sword could not.

Looking back now, it turns out that Li Yuanyi had actually hidden himself in the sword tassel space.

"According to what His Majesty said, Li Yuanyi is not only reborn, but also, like me, reborn from a parallel world."

Li Yuanqi nodded in agreement. But the old emperor, standing to the side, was completely bewildered.

"What rebirth? What parallel world? Why do I feel like I can't understand anything after taking a nap?"

"I'll explain this to Father Emperor later," Li Yuanqi said solemnly. "The most important thing now is to find a way to get Li Yuanyi's sword tassel."

"Sword Tassel, this is easy to handle. Today, I will order everyone in court to lay down their weapons."

"That's why everyone loves rights. If we were to do this, it would inevitably lead to more trouble and losses."

But for His Majesty, it's just a matter of a single word.

Lian Rongrong chuckled, but the old emperor seemed to sense the yin and yang in her voice.

"Daughter-in-law, something seems off about your tone."

"Something's not right? Is that so? How could that be? His Majesty must have misheard."

"Why are you still calling me Your Majesty? You and my son both have sons now, shouldn't you change how you address me?"

The old emperor's thoughts are so jumpy that even Rongrong can hardly keep up.

"Call me Father, and Father will trick you into giving me the second son's treasure."

Is he an old emperor or an old rascal? Even Rongrong couldn't tell at this moment, but in order to please the old man, she still sweetly called him "Father Emperor".

Looking at the old emperor's contented expression, tsk tsk tsk, he's utterly pathetic.

"It's almost time, Qi'er. Today, you will help your father change his clothes."

In an instant, the old emperor's expression became extremely solemn. At this moment, Lian Rongrong truly understood what the dragon energy belonging to a region really was.

Wanfu Gate is the only way to reach Taiji Hall. After passing through Wanfu Gate, you will find the main gate of the outer courtyard of Taiji Hall.

The officials of the Dasheng court passed through this place every day on their way to and from court. Since the old emperor fell seriously ill, the guards of Wanfu Gate have been replaced by Li Yuanyi's men.

But for some reason, when everyone passed through Wanfu Gate today, the guards all seemed very unfamiliar.

They thought it was another arrangement by Li Yuanyi, but to their surprise, Li Yuanyi was also stopped by the guards when he passed through Wanfu Gate.

"What does this mean?" Li Yuanyi asked coldly.

"Your Highness, His Majesty has decreed that all those entering the Taiji Hall must remove their weapons."

"What did you say?" Li Yuanyi frowned. "You said it was His Majesty's decree?"

"Indeed! Please do not make things difficult for us, Your Highness." The guard was very polite, but in reality, he was not willing to give an inch.

Seeing the situation from afar, the Left Chancellor hurriedly stepped forward, bowed to Li Yuanyi, and said:

Why doesn't Your Highness go inside?

"This blind fool is blocking my way. I shall lay down my weapon."

The Left Chancellor glanced at the guard, a hint of surprise in his eyes. But he still maintained a stern expression and asked the guard:

"what happened?"

Upon hearing this, the guard immediately adopted a trembling and fearful demeanor: "Reporting to the Left Chancellor, this is His Majesty's order, and I am merely following orders."

The Left Chancellor stroked his beard with apparent difficulty before turning to Li Yuanyi and advising him:

"Your Highness, it is a rule passed down from our ancestors that we cannot bring weapons into the palace. This has always been the case."

This is not an excessive matter. Why don't you just put down your weapon and bear with it?

If you continue to insist on this, those ministers who don't know the truth will think you're plotting a rebellion.

The Left Chancellor's words, though seemingly spoken with a smile, actually put Li Yuanyi in a difficult position.

Li Yuanyi glanced back at the officials waiting behind him, cursed the old scoundrel in his heart, and then took off his sword.

However, he did not hand the sword to the guards at Wanfu Gate, but instead gave it to his personal bodyguard.

"Keep a close watch on this sword. If anyone tries to touch it, whoever it is, kill them!"

Li Yuanyi gave the order, then coldly glanced at everyone before lifting his robes and striding across Wanfu Gate.

Li Yuanyi never expected that no sooner had he passed through Wanfu Gate than the sword tassel was delivered to Lian Rongrong.

Lian Rongrong looked at the sword tassel in her hand, then looked up at Li Yuanyi's personal guard, her face full of shock.

"Your Highness, I am His Majesty's loyal bodyguard, you can rest assured."

However, to avoid arousing the Second Prince's suspicion, this item must be returned after court.

Lian Rongrong blinked, secretly admiring the old emperor's resourcefulness. Since the person in front of her was able to obtain Li Yuanyi's sword, he must be someone Li Yuanyi trusted implicitly.

But that guy never imagined that the personal guard he dared to entrust with his treasure was actually a spy planted by the old emperor long ago.

No wonder the old emperor died in his previous life, and this guy still couldn't ascend the throne smoothly.

However, Lian Rongrong didn't have time to sigh too much right now. She urged her mind to say to Xiaobai:

"Hey, Xiaobai, I got the stuff. What do you need me to do?"

The master placed two amber stones in water, and then needed a drop of the master's blood.

"Sigh, after this is over, I need to eat more good food to replenish my energy. It's so strange, why is everything taking a toll on me lately?"

Although Lian Rongrong complained, she did not hesitate at all. She did everything as Xiaobai said, and the rest was up to Xiaobai.

Lian Rongrong saw that the two amber stones in the water simultaneously emitted a green light, and her drop of blood turned into a blood mist, firmly covering Li Yuanyi's amber stone.

Although no other changes were visible to the naked eye, Lian Rongrong could clearly feel a power being transmitted.

In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the blood mist dissipated, and the two amber stones lost their luster.

"Is this the end?"

[It's over. Hehe, I, Little White, am alive again!]

Hearing Xiaobai's words, Lian Rongrong finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she did not rush to release Fubao and her mother.

Instead, he handed Li Yuanyi's amber stone back to the guards waiting outside.

"Has the Princess finished using it?"

"Okay, you can return it now."

The guard gave a perfunctory bow and then cautiously walked towards Wanfu Gate.

After the guards left, Lian Rongrong closed the palace door and eagerly released everyone from inside the ring.

As soon as Fu Bao arrived, he wobbled over to Lian Rongrong, grabbed her leg with snot and tears streaming down his face.

"Waaah, Mother, Mother."

The little guy cried so pitifully that even Rongrong bent down to pick him up and comforted him for a moment with heartache.

He then inquired about his mother, sister-in-law, Qiuju, and others one by one.

After confirming that everyone was safe, he then escorted them out through the secret passage, as agreed with the old emperor and Li Yuanqi before going to court.
