Lin Yiwan said helplessly: "Come in, if you look again, your eyes are glued to me!"

Ling'er walked quickly to her and said pleadingly, "Madam, please take this servant with you. This servant wants to stay with you!"

Lin Yiwan comforted him, "This trip to the South is fraught with danger. I left the capital secretly, and some people will inevitably become suspicious. So you have to stay and look after the house, lest we return victorious only to find our home gone!"

There was a fierce struggle in Ling'er's eyes. She couldn't bear to leave her madam.

She has been by her side since she was a child and has long been accustomed to being her little tail.

Lin Yiwan raised her hand to wipe her tears and said, "You and Zi'er will guard our mansion together. Don't let anyone get in. Do you understand?"

Ling'er was stunned for a moment. She could understand why the lady didn't take her with her, because she didn't know martial arts and would only be a burden to others in a critical moment.

But Zi'er is an expert in martial arts and can drive a carriage very well, so why don't you take her with you?

Lin Yiwan explained to her: "The enemies outside are all in the open, but the villains in the capital are hiding in the dark. I feel more at ease with Zi'er helping you!"

Ling'er had no choice but to nod: "Okay, I'll go to the kitchen and make you some pancakes. You can eat them on the way!"

Lin Yiwan refused directly: "Don't bother, I'm here to serve as Min Xiang's assistant. If I bring too many things, people will get suspicious!"

Ling'er was so anxious that she was about to cry. She hugged Lin Yiwan tightly and said, "But, I have to do something for you to feel at ease!"

Lin Yiwan patted her on the back and said, "You don't have to do anything. Just take care of the house with Zi'er. That's the best help you can give me!"

Ling'er quickly agreed: "Yes, this servant will definitely take good care of the house with Zi'er, Madam, don't worry!"

The two chatted for a while, and soon Zi'er came to report that Prime Minister Min's carriage had arrived outside.

Lin Yiwan walked out quickly and got into the carriage.

Min Ao handed her a set of green clothes and said, "This is what my guards wear. You change into it first!"

After saying that, he turned his back!

Lin Yiwan didn't hesitate and took off her coat and changed into her clothes.

She whispered, "Min Sang, I'm done!"

Min Ao turned around and looked at her pretty, porcelain-white face, frowning and pondering: "It's not quite right, your skin needs to be covered up. It's rare to find such a fair complexion among those who follow the army!"

Lin Yiwan blushed and apologized quickly: "It was my negligence, please don't blame me, Minister Min!"

She took out a bottle from her sleeve, poured out the powder inside, and stirred it into a paste with water.

Min Ao asked curiously: "What is this?"

She explained earnestly, "It's an ointment that changes your skin color. It's not easy to fall off. Even if you rub it hard with your hands, it won't come off!"

As she spoke, she applied makeup on her face.

After a moment, she really transformed into a little guard with ordinary appearance and dark skin.

Min Ao was extremely shocked. He didn't expect that there was such a magical ointment in the world.

If he hadn't seen Lin Yiwan's pretty face, he really couldn't imagine that this was her.

Lin Yiwan waved her palm at him: "Min Xiang, come back to your senses!"

Min Ao laughed out loud: "I lost my composure. The ointment in this bottle, Madam Hou, is truly miraculous. If you passed me on the street looking like this, I really wouldn't recognize you!"

Lin Yiwan narrowed her eyes and said, "This is exactly what I want. From now on, I will be your little follower, Shuangmu!"

Min Ao nodded: "Well, two trees make a forest, what a good name!"

After Lin Yiwan was sure there were no flaws, he said solemnly, "Qin Tianhao is extremely treacherous and cunning. When you meet him, you must stay away from him!"

Lin Yiwan asked in surprise, "Could it be possible that he could bypass you, the current prime minister?"

Min Ao sighed, "Qin Tianhao is the princess's uncle, and he is brave and powerful, and is highly regarded by the monarch. Sometimes, he is so arrogant that he even ignores me, the prime minister. However, he also knows that the monarch respects me very much, so he will be more cautious in his actions!"

Lin Yiwan nodded: "Okay, I will definitely not take the initiative to provoke him when I see him, but if he doesn't behave like a human being, then I won't be polite either!"

Min Ao also knew her abilities, so he didn't say anything.

After the carriage left the city, it traveled for about two days before finally meeting the army led by Qin Tianhao in a valley.

Qin Tianhao was very dissatisfied with Min Ao. He asked with a sullen face, "Minister Min, why are you so slow? Are you deliberately delaying the military operation? Could it be that you have lived in Sheng Dynasty for so long that you don't want to leave?"

Min Ao interrupted without hesitation: "General Qin, please be careful with your words. My carriage has been galloping all the way without stopping for even a moment. How can you come up and accuse me of something so random?"

Qin Tianhao laughed sarcastically: "Min Xiang, you are so boring. I was just joking with you, why do you take it seriously?"

Min Ao interrupted impatiently: "I don't have time to joke with you. Didn't you say you had to hurry? What are you still dawdling about?"

Qin Tianhao was about to get on the horse when he suddenly saw Lin Yiwan standing next to Min Ao.

He frowned and asked, "Min Xiang, why haven't I seen this attendant beside you before? Is he from our Li country?"

Min Ao nodded without hesitation: "Indeed, it's not him. He's a little beggar I met in the capital. I took him in because of his pitiful life. He knows the way to the Southland!"

Qin Tianhao's stern face suddenly darkened. He rebuked in a cold voice, "Min Xiang, you are too careless. You actually brought a foreigner with you. Aren't you afraid that he will reveal our whereabouts and cause our plan to fail?"

Min Ao interrupted impatiently: "She won't, I believe her!"

A murderous intent suddenly flashed in Qin Tianhao's eyes. Without hesitation, he rushed to Lin Yiwan, picked her up and threw her to the ground.

Min Ao's expression suddenly changed. He raised his sleeves and rolled Lin Yiwan back.

He glared at Qin Tianhao, who had an ugly expression on his face. "How dare you kill even the people around me? Are you looking for death?"

Qin Tianhao was really shocked by his eyes. He gritted his teeth and immediately jumped on the horse.

He shouted sharply: "Hurry up!"

As soon as the words fell, all the soldiers hurried forward.

Lin Yiwan and Min Xiang sat back in the carriage and saw him elegantly wash his hands with brocade cloth.

She asked curiously: "Min Xiang, Qin Tianhao seems to be afraid of you?"

Min Ao nodded. "Well, his martial arts skills are not as good as mine. Besides, the army he commands was also cultivated by me. Only after the border was free from war did I enter the court and become the prime minister!"

Lin Yiwan understood. No wonder Qin Tianhao almost bit his teeth to pieces just now, but he didn't dare to confront Min Xiang.

Min Ao lowered his eyes and sighed: "Qin Tianhao is targeting you like this, I'm afraid that matter will be difficult to handle!"
