＞The fine down of “Lanugo Certified” is still on the list, but the four-nation delegation sent “Peace Teething Sticks”.

＞The Beidi ice crystal rod is secretly engraved with a non-aggression talisman, the Xiling Star iron rod is branded with trade terms, and even the southern border's Gu glue stick is secreting symbiotic bacteria.

> Chen Bao's plan is to settle the "lollipop hegemony" at the negotiation table, Er Bao's pacifier upgrades to "bite the hook" mode, and San Bao's cloud boat spreads "rainbow crumbs to stop the war" on the border.

> Lingbao gnawed on the treaty jade slip, leaving behind the "Chaos Tooth Seal." The Venomous Tongue System announced: "Anyone who forces any more rigid terms will be punished by being a teething toy for a hundred years!"

Xiao Jue looked at the totems of the four nations engraved in his daughter's teeth and sighed softly, "This blood oath will ultimately be nothing more than a crumb between her teeth."

---

The terrifying prospect of "eternal hair loss worries," like the most precise hair removal device, instantly extinguished the four nations' eagerness to gain "Chaos Certification." The tribute list outside the General's Mansion's storehouse, stained with a tuft of Lingbao's fetal hair, became a perpetual nightmare and a warning for the four nations' tribute envoys. Following the General's ruthless tax collection and Lingbao's hair-pulling counterattack, the royal city fell into a subtle, yet absurd, calm. The four nations' envoys remained indoors, busy writing apologies (to their respective monarchs) and applying hair-growing potions (to themselves), fearing the venomous system would target them for the eternal drudgery of chasing after that wisp of fetal hair.

Inside the General's Mansion, Lingbao seemed oblivious to her "certified" fur-pulling feat. She'd recently become obsessed with a new skill—chewing on anything hard within reach. Xiao Jue's Guihong ruler sheath, Chenbao's abacus horn, Erbao's gold pacifier chain, even Sanbao's cloud boat model propeller—all left behind glistening saliva and tiny teeth marks. A'Luo had specially prepared teething sticks made of several materials (cork, silicone, freeze-dried fruits and vegetables) for her, and Lingbao embraced them all, chewing with relish, her baby teeth leaving distinct grooves on the sticks.

"Little Ancestor, be gentle, be careful with your teeth!" Su Li watched her daughter chewing on a hardwood stick, making a "crunching" sound, with a mixture of amusement and worry. Lingbao raised her saliva-stained little face and flashed her mother a brilliant, toothless (small teeth were just beginning to emerge) smile, then lowered her head and continued to chew intently, as if it were the most delicious delicacy in the world.

The tranquility of grinding teeth is like a beast sharpening its claws, brewing a storm in silence.

**Section 1: The Peace Trap in the Teething Stick**

The chess players from these four countries clearly understand the cunning art of "saving the nation through indirect means." Failing to force their way through, they resorted to a more thoughtful and harmless weapon: baby essentials. Their rationale was impeccable: grateful for the chaotic power of His Majesty Zero, and even more compassionately for his teething painstaking efforts, the four nations assembled their skilled craftsmen to craft a sacred teething product that "calms the mind, strengthens teeth, and inspires wisdom," as a token of good neighborliness and a wish for everlasting peace among the four nations.

Thus, the newly cleared street in front of the General's Mansion was once again occupied by four "low-key" yet even more thoughtful motorcades. This time, there were no massive ice-carved jade objects, only four exquisitely crafted jade boxes, held in the hands of the four nations' envoys, their attitudes respectful and almost humble.

**Northern Di Jade Box:** Contains a chilling aura. Upon opening it, a translucent "Mysterious Ice Forever Teething Stick," carved like ice crystal, rested quietly on a ferret velvet cushion. A faint blue sheen shone through the stick, and it felt icy yet not biting. Northern Di envoy Hu Yanlie (his hairline seemed to have receded again) respectfully declared, "This stick is forged from the heart of a thousand-year-old cold marrow. It contains the core of the 'Northern Huang Mutual Non-Aggression' Ice Soul Talisman Formation. When Your Highness bites and grinds his teeth, the ice soul will melt, forming a contract. The chill will soothe swollen and painful gums..." As he spoke, faint blue runes appeared within the stick's depths, exuding the binding force of the contract.

**Xiling Jade Box:** Starlight flickered. Within the box lay a heavy, metallically gleaming "Star Iron Trade Teething Stick." Forged from star mother iron, the stick was inscribed with intricate runes. Liu Yunniang, the Xiling maid (a few fine lines forming at the corners of her eyes), softly said, "This stick blends the power of the stars with the mastery of Xiling runes. When Your Highness gnaws on it, the force penetrates, automatically imprinting the 'Best Terms for Free Trade Between Four Nations'' deep within the star mother ore. It is durable and strong, its teeth even sharper than those of commerce..." The runes on the stick illuminated faintly as she explained, outlining a complex trade tariff.

**Southern Xinjiang Jade Box:** A strange fragrance filled the air. Inside the box was a "Gu Jiao Symbiotic Teething Stick," as smooth as jade and pale green. The stick was formed from the sap of a thousand-year-old Gu Jiao tree mixed with a special bacterial colony, resulting in exceptional elasticity. The Southern Xinjiang witch priest (his hands seemed to be shaking beneath his cloak) spoke in a hoarse voice: "This stick is gentle and nourishing, containing Southern Xinjiang's 'All Souls Symbiotic Peaceful Colony.' When Your Highness bites it, the colony is activated by saliva, quietly colonizing the oral cavity, subtly fostering a sense of 'community of life' among the four nations..." On the stick's surface, fine mycelial veins flickered like breathing.

**Donghuang Jade Box:** Magnificent and imposing. Within the box lies a lustrous white "Spirit Jade Ritual Teething Stick," carved with cloud and dragon patterns. The stick is crafted from the finest spiritual jade, a gentle and nourishing experience. The Donghong Minister of Rites (with thinning hair) solemnly declared, "This stick bears the rites of Heaven. Where Your Highness bites, the marks are the jade contract of the 'Four Kingdoms Ancestral Temple Oath.' The tooth marks are the seal, the saliva is cinnabar, sacred and unbreakable..." Cloud and dragon patterns on the stick faintly form the shape of an ancestral temple altar.

Each teething stick is uniquely crafted and effective, perfectly combining the "peace contract" with the needs of infant teething! Their meticulous attention to detail and uncompromising integrity are truly exceptional!

Inside the General's Mansion, Su Li looked at the four teething sticks presented by A'Luo and laughed in anger. "What a 'good neighborly concern'! What a 'bite-to-form pact'! Beidi's ice pact, Xiling's business pact, Nanjiang's fungus pact, Donghuang's jade pact... They're trying to force a peace treaty between my teeth!"
