The Disabled Tyrant’s Pet Palm Fish [Transmigration] - Chap 151

Chap 151
Was the Crown Prince hiding something from him?

Li Yu’s instincts told him so, which made him feel rather awkward. The two of them already had
5 children together. Since the Crown Prince trusted him, why couldn’t he speak honestly?

However, when Li Yu recalled all the nonsense that he had fabricated, he completely lost his
confidence in questioning the Crown Prince.

In this era, were husbands not allowed to have their own little secrets?

……. Got it! A lightbulb instantly lit up over Li Yu’s head. How can he forget that he had
something that allowed him to view secrets– the System!

Li Yu immediately entered the System, which he hasn’t entered in a long time. Before when he
was doing tasks, he saved up a pile of the hubby’s secrets that he didn’t manage to finish
watching. He had to use it up eventually.

I want to take out the secrets I saved before for viewing…… Li Yu said.

The System immediately responded and displayed the Crown Prince’s secrets.

They still didn’t have any clear descriptions and were all scenes that were constantly changing.

Li Yu was a bit gloomy. Wasn’t this like a random raffle! Also it wasn’t easy for him to describe
what kind of secrets the Crown Prince had recently.

…… look, it’s almost a snappy phrase here.

Li Yu asked tentatively: Are there any recent secrets?

The System said: “The secrets are updated accordingly. You cannot search for specifics.”

Li Yu: …… alright. I already knew you’re a shitty system who loves to screw fish over.
Li Yu can only look through all of the secrets one by one.

Most of these secrets were unmentionable things that the Crown Prince had done. By seeing who
appeared in the randomly flashing scene, Li Yu was able to generally decide which to watch.

Li Yu very quickly learned many things that he did not know about.

For example, Mu TianXiao(6) was once accused of misconduct by Zheng Jing from the Ministry
of Works, and thus lost the Emperor’s trust. In actuality, the Crown Prince was the one who had
ordered someone to give Zheng Jing the needed information.

For example, the Crown Prince once wrote many letters to the Emperor, advancing step by step,
to convince the Emperor to make Li Yu his main wife.

Also for example, before the Crown Prince had left for the West Frontier, he specifically went to
see Old ChengEn Gong, Ye Qian, to request Ye Qian for the green plum wine that he had made
for them.

Li Yu was completely dazzled watching all of this. Nevertheless, this was the real Crown
Prince……

After Li Yu finished viewing one secret, a new one would update.

Li Yu suddenly saw a scene of a fish swimming by.

Could this be it?

Li Yu hastily clicked open this secret for inspection.

The setting of this secret was under water. A black fish with spots of gold was currently biting
onto the hem of a child’s shirt with all of its might as it swam towards the water’s surface.

This…… Wasn’t this his previous fish body before he had completed the Koi mission? At that
time, his body was basically black and he didn’t finish the mission to change yet.
Li Yu wouldn’t make a mistake in recognizing himself. However, he never grabbed a small child
in the water before. This child’s body structure looked a bit larger than Bao#1’s.

The child coincidentally turned his face over at this time. His cheeks were flushed red. Seeing
that a fish had saved him, his eyes were filled with astonishment.

Li Yu was even more shocked than him.

This child– although it wasn’t Bao#1, had a face that looked extremely similar to Bao#1.

Li Yu finally recognized him. This was the little fatty! Bao#1’s dad when he’s a kid!

Li Yu’s breathing halted. He almost forgot that these were the Crown Prince’s secrets. Of course
the child inside the secret must be the Crown Prince.

However…… This was where the contradiction began.

Li Yu remembered that he did encounter the little fatty when he was a fish. However, it should
have been inside an illusion. How did this end up in the Crown Prince’s secret?

Illusions were imaginary. They didn’t exist at all. Meanwhile, secretes were real things that had
happened.

How could this get mixed up?

Li Yu couldn’t figure it out and continued to watch. This should be from the little fatty’s point of
view. Li Yu also saw his black and gold fish self curling up to let the little fatty pet him.

Li Yu: “……”

At first he was still a little doubtful about whether this black and gold fish were really him. Yet
this forward and voluntary action, other than him, who else could it be?

The black and gold fish dragged the little fatty to the shore. The little fatty excitedly hugged the
fish. Under the fish’s guidance, he began to not very proficiently stroke the fish’s head……
The little fatty and fish played together for a little while. Hearing the sound of a voice, the fish
swiftly slipped into the water.

Li Yu saw a gold flashing light in the pond. That place was very clearly where the fish was
hiding.

The little fatty wanted to go find fish. At this time, the Emperor strided over quickly with a group
of Imperial Physicians in tow. The little fatty fainted. The Imperial Physicians discovered that he
had a high fever. The Emperor wanted the Imperial Physicians to cure the little fatty no matter
what.

In the end, a high monk stepped forth……

Li Yu recognized this high monk. It was a younger Liao Kong.

Liao Kong helped the Imperial Physicians treat the feverish little fatty. The Emperor also
followed Liao Kong’s words and decided to change the little fatty’s name.

The Emperor said with a smile: “I saw the pond filled with a gold light. Thus, he shall be called
TianChi.”

Li Yu: “…….”

While he was a fish in hiding, he didn’t realize there was a reflection of light in the water.

While he was an observer watching from the side, he was able to recognize that the gold light
that the Emperor had seen in the pond was actually a reflection from the gold scales on his
stomach.

Could it be that the Crown Prince’s name was because of him?

After recovering from his illness, the little fatty– Mu TianChi, came to the edge of the water and
looked in.

The little fatty had already forgotten the details of what happened after he fell into the water,
unable to remember anything.
After this secret ended, Li Yu took a long time to calm his breathing.

Just what exactly was going on? Why did an illusion change into reality?

Did he really…… exist during the time of the Crown Prince’s youth?

The System didn’t actually answer him. The scenes of the secrets continued to flash and change
constantly.

Li Yu continued to watch.

He discovered a scene where Mu TianChi was wearing his current Crown Prince outfit.

Li Yu picked this scene next.

In this scene, Mu TianChi was sitting in front of a table, focused on a piece of paper, writing
something.

Li Yu waited for quite a while but didn’t see anyone else. The Crown Prince continued to write
nonstop.

Li Yu thought for a moment and went to read what the Crown Prince was writing. Normally
when the Crown Prince was dealing with private tasks, Li Yu usually averted his attention.
However, recalling the trust that the Crown Prince had for him and also the various help he gave
Li Yu, Li Yu gathered his courage and peeked over.

He felt like the secret should be what the Crown Prince was writing.

Perhaps it was related to government affairs. Or perhaps it was a secret order……

What’s happening inside the secret was the past, a memory. In here, the Crown Prince shouldn’t
be able to notice him.

He’ll just take a peek.
Li Yu swiftly took a glance.

Unexpectedly, with this one glance, he saw his own name.

Li Yu paused and then continued reading. He vaguely recognized a sentence.

“…… make Li Yu as the Empress, equivalent to the regent ruler.”

Li Yu: !

Li Yu immediately realized. This was the Crown Prince’s plans for when he ascended the throne!

If the Crown Prince ascended the throne, then naturally Li Yu would become the fish empress.
After a lot of mental preparations, Li Yu was finally able to accept this.

Making him the empress wasn’t much. The important part was the latter half of the sentence. He
would be equivalent to the regent ruler!

The Empress’s original job was to manage the Emperor’s harem. As most, they can persuade and
admonish the Emperor slightly if he’s being improper. The regent ruler wasn’t the same. They
had real power and control!

Ss. Li Yu’s teeth ached. What kind of weird arrangement did his hubby make for him secretly?!

An empress with the same power as the regent ruler, was this like the regent Empress?!

Wait, this– Wasn’t this ‘sharing the nation’?

Li Yu jolted: System, is my main mission completed?

The System said: “Host, very sorry. The tyrant didn’t express this clearly, therefore it does not
count.”

It’s already written down, how can it not count?
Li Yu panicked. He was just about to argue strongly and when he saw the Crown Prince put
down his brush after he finished writing. With a smile, he carefully read what he wrote just now.

Then, with a soft sigh, he set the paper on fire on a nearby candle, watching the flame burn and
engulf all of the words.

Li Yu: “…….”

The Crown Prince had burned the paper. No wonder it didn’t count.

However, he couldn’t blame the Crown Prince for this either. The Crown Prince was only a step
away from the throne. This kind of thing held a very disrespectful connotation. Of course the
Crown Prince needed to get rid of it.

However, if this were the case, then why write it?

And also, since the Crown Prince already had the intentions of ruling together with him, why
can’t he just tell Li Yu?

Why would he remain tight-lipped whenever Li Yu mentioned about the nation……

Other than understanding the thoughts in the Crown Prince’s heart, Li Yu gained even more
questions. After coming out from the System, Li Yu wanted to go find the Crown Prince and ask
him for some clear answers.

However, the Crown Prince went to the Ministry of Revenue and wasn’t inside the Estate. Li Yu
recalled that since he’s been busy with the woman’s assistance group the last few days, he has
been somewhat neglecting the little princess Snow Bao. It’s better to first go check up on the
child.

Li Yu entered Snow Bao’s room. He discovered that Xiao Luo, who was responsible for taking
care of the kid, had fallen asleep in front of the cradle.

Xiao Luo wasn’t very old herself, yet she needed to take care of Snow Bao. Sometimes, she’d
also be summoned emergently to the assistant group by Li Yu to help out. She had many things
to do in a day.
As the master, Li Yu was pretty reasonable. He allowed Xiao Luo to continue sleeping. As he
stood on one side of the cradle, he discovered that Snow Bao’s face was currently facing the
other side. Li Yu maneuvered himself around and immediately discovered the other Baos.

The four Baos were laying on the floor in disarray, also sleeping. Bao#2’s finger was still placed
on his little chubby face, maintaining a gesture of making silly faces at his little sister for her
amusement.

Bao#1 and Bao#3’s hands were both pinching Bao#2’s face. Bao#4 was a little further away
from them, sleeping in a ball. It’s unknown if he had rolled over there and fallen asleep or if he
had fallen asleep and then rolled over there.

Li Yu smiled faintly. He first adjusted his daughter’s blanket. Snow Bao’s little face was pink
and soft from sleep. Her eyes started moving slightly under her eyelids. Li Yu hastily soothed her
back to prevent her from waking up. She fell back into dreamland again.

Li Yu turned around to grab two blankets off the bed. He placed one over Xiao Luo’s shoulders
and then covered one over the four Baos.

While doing this, he praised himself for being quiet and light footed. However, he still ended up
disturbing Bao#1. Bao#1 immediately climbed up and rubbed his eyes, calling out in a dazed
fashion: “Dad?”

Li Yu hastily made a shush sound. He thought Bao#1 would be like Snow Bao and fall back to
sleep. Unexpected, Bao#1 ended up waking up even more.

Together, the responsible fish big brother and fish dad covered the other fish babies with the
blanket. Bao#1 even did the same as fish dad and covered little sister Snow Bao with the blanket,
patting it down, taking care of Snow Bao.

Bao#1 was really a very reliable and good big brother. Li Yu couldn’t help but smile.

Xiao Luo woke up soon afterwards. Discovering that she had accidentally fallen asleep and
seeing Taizi-fei taking care of the kids, Xiao Luo felt extremely guilty.

However, not only did Li Yu not blame her, he even generously waved at her, wanting her to go
rest.
Xiao Luo felt extremely grateful. Bowing to Li Yu, she left the room. Thinking that when the
little masters wake up, they will definitely be hungry, Xiao Luo went to get prepared.

Originally, the weather of this day was pretty good and also very warm. The window inside the
room was opened a crack to prevent stuffiness.

Li Yu simply opened the window wide open to let the air in.

The sky was very blue. Li Yu casually glanced at it. From the horizon, a few grey ash colored
clouds came floating over.

The last few days, Mu TianChi had started working at the Ministry of Revenue. The Minister of
Revenue was intentionally showing off, reporting the key affairs the Ministry of Revenue had
been involved in in the last few years, when a gust of cold wind blew over.

The Crown Prince raised his head and glanced outside of the window. One minute before, it was
still bright and beautiful. In this short amount of time, the skies were covered by dark clouds,
with lightning and thunder.

“Please be careful, your highness.” The Minister of Revenue said with concern.

Yet Mu TianChi wasn’t listening. The hand that he was using to hold the reports paused as he
continued to look attentively outside of the window.

In the blink of an eye, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky and landed, with the sound of
thunder following immediately.

The sound of this thunder wasn’t quite like usual……

The Crown Prince then looked towards where the lightning landed. It seemed to be the Crown
Prince’s Estate!

Xiao Yu was still inside the estate. Mu TianChi’s face was suddenly lit up pale white by the
lightning. He recalled the numerous ancient texts that he had read previously about cultivating
immortals. This kind of huge thunder and lightning with torrential winds and heavy rain, it must
be the heavenly tribulation!
The Crown Prince immediately dropped his brush and rushed outside with large steps.

The Minister of Revenue and other officials all received quite a shock. They all ran forth to
dissuade the Crown Prince but the Crown Prince turned a deaf ear. The Minister of Revenue was
at a loss and unable to persuade the Crown Prince. He changed plans and repeatedly ordered
people to fetch a raincoat and bamboo hat. However, by the time these items were brought over,
the Crown Prince had long since disappeared.

Riding on a horse, Mu TianChi charged through the rain and rushed back to the Crown Prince’s
estate, fast as lightning.

The Crown Prince didn’t even have time to get off his horse and instead, barged into the estate,
man and horse together.

Wang-gonggong was shocked by the sudden appearance of the Crown Prince and nervously
asked what’s the matter. The Crown Prince didn’t even answer.

Running all the way back to the house, the Crown Prince heard the sound of a child crying. Heart
clenching tightly, he charged through the door, completely disregarding everything.

He saw Bao#1 sitting on the floor, rubbing his eyes nonstop; Li Yu was standing in front of the
window, clothes fluttering in the wind. At this moment, he thought that the other was about to fly
up into the sky and leave.

Regardless of how he had avoided Xiao Yu’s question, the last trial still arrived in the end?

The lightning tribulation was a dangerous problem. If the last trial were successful, then parting
would follow.

“Xiao Yu, don’t go!” Mu TianChi yelled desperately.

He charged over and separated this fish from the wind and rain, locking Li Yu tightly in his
arms.

Bao#1 was actually crying because the wind had blown into his eyes. Li Yu, who was trying to
close the windows because of the thunderstorm: ???
Bao#1 forgot about crying and blinked his eyes, looking stupefied at the two daddies.

“TianChi, what’s the matter?” Li Yu didn’t get it and asked quietly.

The Crown Prince’s face and body was drenched by the rain. His clothes couldn’t possibly be
anymore soaking wet. He embraced Li Yu tightly, refusing to let go no matter what.

“Don’t go……” The Crown Prince said sorrowfully.

Hearing him repeating these words on and off, Li Yu suddenly realized something.

This was because Li Yu said that he was a carp demon. The Crown Prince, who was even more
immersed in the act than he was, actually mistakened a normal thunderstorm as the heavenly
tribulation!

What disaster did he court? Why was this person this stupid……

Li Yu didn’t know if he should laugh or cry. Sniffing his nose emotionally, he hugged the Crown
Prince back with all of his strength.

“TianChi, don’t worry.” Li Yu said: “I’m not leaving, nor will I part from you.”
