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

As Lian Rongrong spoke, she drew the soft sword from her waist. This sword was specially made for her by Li Yuanqi recently.

The reason was simply that she unintentionally said that drawing a sword from one's waist was very cool.

Li Yuanqi took almost every word Lian Rongrong said to heart.

Seeing the sword light in Lian Rongrong's hand, Yan Mingyue was stunned for a moment. She unconsciously took two steps back and swallowed several times.

"What...what are you going to do?"

Looking at Yan Mingyue's cowardly appearance, Lian Rongrong felt both amused and bored. "So timid, yet she still tries to provoke people."

However, Lian Rongrong's temper wouldn't be easily quelled just because Yan Mingyue backed down. She held her sword, looked at the dead rat in the corner, and said softly:

"What are you afraid of, sister-in-law? You don't think I'm going to kill someone, do you?"

Yan Mingyue forced herself to stand firm, but her eyes had already betrayed her.

"I'm not afraid at all, and my sister-in-law wouldn't kill someone in broad daylight over something like this, would she?"

Lian Rongrong snorted lightly: "Don't worry, unless you do something horrible, I won't kill you."

Didn't they say they found a rat in our hot pot? Well then, let's cut the rat open and see what's inside.

If they were rats in my hot pot restaurant, they definitely wouldn't have any rice.

So, if they cut open the belly and find it full of food, then it's probably because the younger sibling brought it in from outside to deliberately trap it.

Lian Rongrong was talking nonsense with a straight face, but Yan Mingyue didn't know that she was born into a wealthy family and would never care about something like rats.

Just as Lian Rongrong raised her sword to strike, Yan Mingyue suddenly cried out. Lian Rongrong frowned and turned to look at Yan Mingyue:

"Why are you yelling for no reason?"

"Isn't it too cruel for the Empress Dowager to do this?"

"Cruel?" Lian Rongrong couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"I mean, it's disgusting."

"Oh, that makes some sense. The food on your sister-in-law's table wasn't even put into the pot, which shows how disgusting that rat really is."

Lian Rongrong's words seemed to be a genuine agreement with Yan Mingyue, but in reality, she was telling everyone that this was something Yan Mingyue had deliberately done.

Otherwise, how could Yan Mingyue have foreseen the presence of a dead rat in the pot and thus refrained from cooking the meat and vegetables in it?

Those watching the spectacle were mostly intelligent, and soon the discussion started again.

"Sister-in-law, although cutting rats is a bit disgusting, the most important thing for me in business is my reputation."

I'm determined to clear my name today, so no matter how disgusting it is, sister-in-law, you'd better bear with it.

As Lian Rongrong spoke, she raised her sword to strike, while Yan Mingyue, seeing this, quickly covered her mouth and ran out of the private room.

The soft sword certainly didn't cut open the rat's corpse, after all, even Rongrong was afraid of soiling her soft sword.

Moreover, Yan Mingyue's hasty retreat already spoke volumes.

After Yan Mingyue and her servants left, Lian Rongrong sheathed her sword and strode out of the private room.

She stood on the second-floor railing, surveyed the guests present, and then spoke in a soft yet dignified voice:

"We apologize for the fright you all experienced today. To express our sincere apologies, Lotus Hot Pot will waive all your meal expenses!"

A burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted in the store, and from that moment on, everyone truly came to know the legendary Princess Qi.

Such a dashing woman, let alone Prince Qi, what man wouldn't love her?

Lian Rongrong instructed people to thoroughly clean and disinfect the private room where Yan Mingyue had stayed, since Yan Mingyue herself was even more disgusting than a dead rat.

After giving these instructions, Lian Rongrong still felt it wasn't enough to vent her anger, so she asked Er Dai to find a wooden board in the backyard.

Although Er Dai didn't understand, he still found them quickly. Lian Rongrong looked at the wooden board and nodded slightly.

"Perfect, the size is just right." As soon as she finished speaking, Lian Rongrong drew her soft sword and carved a line of words on the wooden board in a few swift strokes.

Er Dai was so engrossed in watching his boss's impressive sword dance that he only realized after Lian Rongrong put the sword away that his boss had carved words on the wooden board.

Er Dai looked curiously at the boss and the wooden board he had just received.

Lian Rongrong blew on the wooden board, and wood chips flew out, revealing the words "No dogs or dogs allowed in the Prince's Mansion".

Upon seeing the words on the wooden board, Er Dai's mouth involuntarily opened into an "O" shape, making him look truly dumbfounded.

"Erdai, put this wooden board in the most conspicuous place by the door."

"Put it at the door?" Er Dai's pupils dilated in shock.

"Ah."

"The most conspicuous place?"

"Otherwise what? If I were to hide it, why would I bother carving it?"

Did it take a lot of effort? Er Dai scratched his head.

"Do as I say, go and release it. I'll handle anything, no matter how big the problem is." Lian Rongrong patted Er Dai on the shoulder and made a very bold promise.

Although Er Dai hesitated, he still agreed. After all, Lian Rongrong was his master, and since the boss had spoken, there was no reason to refuse.

However, Erdai was still a little worried as he walked out the door. This wooden plaque was an absolute insult to the King of Yi.

Is it really okay to leave it out there so openly? Isn't the boss being a bit impulsive?

Just as Erdai was about to reach the door, Lian Rongrong's voice suddenly came from behind.

"Wait a moment!"

Er Dai was delighted upon hearing this, thinking to himself: "The boss must also think it's inappropriate."

Erdai happily returned with the plank, about to suggest burning it, when Lian Rongrong snatched it from his hand.

Lian Rongrong somehow produced another crossbow arrow. While Er Dai was still wondering, Lian Rongrong added the word "evil" in the middle of the line of text.

"The Prince's Mansion and vicious dogs are not allowed inside?" Er Dai repeated, dumbfounded and shocked.

"Hmm, isn't it much better now? Not all dogs are fierce. It's unfair to condemn a dog like that!"

Lian Rongrong was very satisfied with the word she added, so she simply drew a snarling, vicious dog next to it.

However, even Rongrong's drawing skills were really not flattering. She drew a perfectly good vicious dog and made it look like a demon.

"That's perfect. Alright, Erdai, go release it."

Erdai looked at the wooden board and reluctantly took it: Boss, you really are...

Before closing time that night, Li Yuanqi, for some unknown reason, came to the store again.

Lian Rongrong was busy at the time, and when she saw Li Yuanqi arrive, she only slightly raised her eyes and asked without any emotion:

"How did you come?"

Li Yuanqi seemed to have grown accustomed to Lian Rongrong's indifference when she was busy. He waved his hand and said:

"Boss Bai, you go ahead with your work. I'm just here to watch the fun. That sign outside is nice; we should make one for our Prince's Mansion too."

The shopkeeper and other staff who were checking accounts and cleaning frowned and looked at Li Yuanqi upon hearing this. Although they didn't dare to look him directly in the eye, they couldn't help but glance at him.

I thought the princess was already outrageous enough, but I never expected that Prince Qi would be even more outrageous.

From this perspective alone, the two are a match made in heaven.

Shunzi suddenly felt that Miss Hua was really not suitable to marry into the Qi Prince's mansion, after all, she was a bit too normal.

Just as Shunzi was thinking this, Miss Hua from the opposite side actually arrived.
