Chapter 496: Chapter 495: Snow Princess, Wang Clan Young Master_1
 

“That’s right!”

Lin Jinyun nodded: “The commanders of the border troops in the eastern frontier are mainly the empress’s confidants. They have grievances against the Lin Clan’s army. When you arrive there, you must be careful not to reveal your identity.”

“That was close!”

Lin Qingluo chuckled with relief: “Luckily I was cautious just now and didn’t give away my real name. Wang Rong didn’t find out my true identity.”

“Sister, when we reach Long City, it’s better for you to dress as a boy.”

Lin Jinyun said thoughtfully: “Your current appearance is too conspicuous; it’s easy for people to keep their eye on you.”

“Mmm, okay.”

Lin Qingluo smiled: “I also like dressing up as a boy. Wearing women’s clothes is just so inconvenient.”

“Sister looks pretty in women’s clothes.”

The Little Prince rode alongside Lightning on his Yellow Jujube, his little ears perked, listening to their conversation. He suddenly chimed in at this point.

“Awoo.”

Baoya comfortably lay on the horse’s neck, making a couple of timely calls.

It also seemed to agree.

“Doesn’t sister look good dressed as a boy?”

Lin Qingluo was amused and turned her head to look at the boy and the leopard, smiling playfully at them.

“She looks good.”

The Little Prince answered very simply. His delicate little face was filled with seriousness.

“Awoo.”

Baoya called out a couple of times with its tender little voice, wearing a flattering smile.

At the same time, a baby-like soft and mellow voice clearly entered her ears: “Master, when dressed as a boy, looks even more handsome than other boys.”

“Hehe.”

Lin Qingluo laughed happily, listening to its unabashed flattery.

“Master,”

Little Kingfisher then sent a telepathic message: “The birds reported that Wang Rong is also headed in the direction of Long City, walking on the same path as us.”

“Keep an eye on him. If you find any trace of the men in black, warn us ahead of time. We’ll try to avoid them as much as possible.”

Hearing about the close connection between the Wang Clan from Long City and the border troops, Lin Qingluo felt a bit unhappy. She didn’t want to meddle in other people’s affairs and subconsciously wanted to maintain a distance from the Wang Clan.

“Alright.”

Little Kingfisher flapped its small wings, like a bolt of lightning, speeding far away to catch up to the fast-moving carriage up ahead.

“Young Master Rong, the mysterious girl who saved you just now appeared out of nowhere and disappeared without a trace. When did such a powerful figure appear in the Fengqi Empire?”

In the carriage, a bewitching woman, leaning lazily against a soft pillow and supporting her chin, glanced at Wang Rong with a half-smile half-look, her upturned phoenix eyes flashing with an ambiguously cold light.

Wang Rong’s expression darkened: “Fengqi has always been filled with talents. Long City is just a small corner, and the news doesn’t reach us easily. I’m not clear about this either.”The woman gave a charming smile: “It’s hard to believe that the young master of the century-old Wang Clan in Long City could be so modest!”

“Xue Ji, you have important matters to attend to in the borderlands. Just follow the Pavilion Master’s orders.”

Wang Rong displayed some unexpected disagreement: “Don’t pry into other matters.”

“When will the Pavilion Master arrive?”

Mentioning the Pavilion Master, Xue Ji’s breath paused, and she put away her seductive smile, showing a touch of seriousness.

“He’ll be here in two days.”

Wang Rong’s gaze was fierce: “Before that, you’d better get things done. Show the Pavilion Master your sincerity in repentance.”

“Hmph!”

Xue Ji’s face darkened, and she glared back: “My sincerity is well known to the Pavilion Master. There’s no need for your sarcasm.”

“As long as you understand.”

Wang Rong showed a trace of fatigue, rubbing his temples wearily: “The Nanqi Regent may seem lecherous, but he is actually cunning and shrewd. Assassinating him won’t be easy. You must not be careless or you’ll capsize in the gutter and tarnish your reputation.”
