Walking out of the blood-soaked street, the Crown Prince put Fang Ruotang down.
Fang Ruotang was still puffing out her cheeks, angrily complaining.
"They are utterly despicable. In order to kill me, they actually conspired with spies from two other countries. They are traitors! And they colluded with each other so easily. They may have been in contact before. You must help me punish them severely, confiscate their property, and put their assets into the national treasury."
Fang Ruotang's words were not entirely unfounded.
Instead, Little Mirror had just told her that several corrupt officials had either been caught red-handed by spies from Northern Liang or Western Zhou, which is why they were so easily persuaded.
In any case, since they were going to kill Fang Ruotang anyway, having more help would be even better.
Unexpectedly, the Emperor would protect Fang Ruotang so thoroughly, almost exhausting all his resources and deploying all the royal guards to protect her.

Li Shiyun was naturally being monitored, and it was no secret in the royal family that she had learned to draw qi into her body in just one day.
“Sure!” Fang Ruotang agreed nonchalantly.
The Crown Prince knew she didn't understand, so he carefully instructed her, "From now on, when you go out, you must take Li Shiyun with you, understand?"
"I have the protective divine power you gave me, no one can hurt me," Fang Ruotang explained, seeing the Crown Prince's worry.
The crown prince emphasized, "Promise me, okay?"
"Okay!" Fang Ruotang pouted and reluctantly agreed.
She dislikes having people around her, partly because she has been in poor health since childhood and is always surrounded by people who constantly tell her what not to do. Although she knows these people care about her, it is undeniably a kind of shackle.
