After her mind was read, the spoiled brat became the darling of the whole group.

"Come down."

Jun Lanjin patted her shoulder, swung his long leg, and jumped off the horse.

Xie Xing paused for a moment, then closed his eyes and resignedly jumped off the horse.

Before I could react, a set of clothes was thrown at me.

Xie Xing held the clothes and looked up at him blankly.

Jun Lanjin rested his chin on one hand and crossed his arms over his chest, looking at Xie Xing with a leisurely air, and said with a smile, "I heard that the fifth young lady of the Xie family won against the princess of the Southern Kingdom at the palace banquet. How wonderful!"

"I am just an ordinary person from the martial world and have never seen the true face of the Southern Kingdom princess, so I can only ask you to pretend to be her."

Xie Xing: "..."

She rubbed her cheeks, glanced at Xie Ansheng and the others below who were eyeing her menacingly, and then at the impatient men in black over there.

After enduring it for so long, she could only weakly and spinelessly ask, "Why me?"

"Hmm?" Jun Lanjin raised an eyebrow beneath his mask. "Naturally, it's because I've caught you red-handed."

"If you want the antidote, do as I say."

"If you don't do it..."

Jun Lanjin paused deliberately, then said with a smile, "Then die."

Xie Xing: "..."

That's why she hates these kinds of inexplicable people the most!

How did I end up getting involved with him?!

Xie Xing walked dejectedly to a secluded corner, and only after making sure Jun Lanjin couldn't see her did she begin to change her clothes.

It's a very Western Region-style outfit, clearly the style of a princess from the South.

Xie Xing changed his clothes while muttering to himself.

[I bet Xie Mingzhu, a naive and inexperienced martial artist, ten years his life, that he's either a figure in the imperial court or a henchman.]

System: [Be careful. If he leaves you there, you won't even know how you died.]

Xie Xing certainly knew.

She thought to herself expressionlessly, and when she was indecisive, she would immediately start yelling.

At least let Xie Ansheng and the others know that she was forced into it.

Speaking of this...

Xie Xing really had to complain about the guards at the General's Mansion.

What kind of guards are they that allow just anyone to sneak into the general's mansion?

Lived in Bengbu.

Full of complaints, Xie Xing had already changed her clothes. She put on a veil and reluctantly walked up to Jun Lanjin.

Jun Lanjin looked down at her. Xie Xing was wearing a purple floral dress that accentuated her waist. It was completely different from her usual clothes and gave her a bit of the charm of a princess from the Southern Kingdom.

With the veil on, her figure was virtually identical to hers.

However, those bright, sparkling eyes that still shone under the moonlight were much more beautiful than the princess's.

Jun Lanjin looked away, put his arm around the person's waist, and with a light tap of his toes, headed downwards.

the other side.

The men in black were getting impatient.

They paced back and forth, unable to help but curse, "Damn it, could we have been tricked?!"

"These southern barbarians, I'm going to kill them all!"

Secretly, Xie Ansheng was also getting impatient.

He raised his hand, about to order the massacre of these people, when a deep voice suddenly came from the other side: "Who are you going to kill?"

That sound instantly drew everyone's attention.

Everyone looked at the sound.

Then I saw two people, one tall and one short, gradually walking out of the darkness and into the light.

The taller one was imposing, wearing a ghost mask that gave off a strong sense of oppression. The shorter one, Xie Ansheng squinted, was dressed as a princess from the Southern Kingdom.

The figure drew near, and it was indeed a person from the South!

"Damn it, why are you so late!"

The man in black, furious, cursed at Jun Lanjin.

"If you don't want this defense map, then forget it."

"Hey, calm down." Jun Lanjin's voice was cheerful. "You know, Prince Jin has been keeping a close eye on us lately. It will take us some time to get out of Prince Jin's sight."

Prince Jin?

Xie Xing lowered his eyes.

Indeed, Junlan recently hosted envoys from the Southern Kingdom.

What role does this person play in all of this?

Upon hearing this, the man in black's expression softened slightly.

Jun Lanjin exudes an overwhelming sense of oppression; to avoid being caught by him would require a lot of effort.

The man in black reached out to Jun Lanjin: "Did you bring the things?"

"Of course," Jun Lanjin replied calmly.

He took out a gold medal from his sleeve.

The man's eyes lit up when he saw the gold medal, and he said, "Give it to me."

Jun Lanjin slowly and deliberately put the gold medal back: "Let me see my things."

What is this gold medal?

Xie Xing looked at the gold medal in Jun Lanjin's hand with a puzzled expression.

"It's the Tiger Tally." The system's voice was deep and resonant. "Host, you guessed right, this person is indeed connected to someone in the imperial court."

The sudden outburst caught Xie Yu, who was hiding in the shadows, completely off guard.

His eyes could not hide his shock.

Xing'er?!

Why is she here?

The voice came from who-knows-where, and Xie Yuhe dared not search around, so he could only stand stiffly and look suspiciously at Xie Xing, who was standing next to Jun Lanjin.

Could it be her?

Xie Yuhe was quickly drawn to the content of the heartfelt words.

Tiger tally?!

Whose tiger tally is it, and how did it end up on that masked man?

Xie Yuhe gritted his teeth; his heart was pounding like a drum.

He dared not disturb anyone at this moment, his eyes fixed on Jun Lanjin's sleeve.

The man in black was clearly also captivated by the tiger tally. He untied the bundle behind him, revealing the defense map inside.

"Now you can rest assured, right?"

"Give me the tiger tally."

At that time, Xie Xing was also wondering where this tiger tally came from.

The system said: [The Tiger Tally is…]

Just as it was about to speak, Jun Lanjin beside it suddenly asked, "Princess, what do you think?"

how is it?

How about what?

Xie Xing raised his head blankly and met Jun Lanjin's eyes.

His eyes, as black as ink jade, gazed intently at her.

His shout drew the attention of the man in black to Xie Xing.

They hadn't noticed before, but now the man in black realized that the Southern Kingdom princess was the real protagonist of this deal.

The man in black became extremely obsequious to Xie Xing, saying with a smile, "Princess, rest assured, this defense map is absolutely accurate!"

Xie Xing's eyes darted around. Mimicking the Southern Kingdom princess's demeanor, she raised her chin and said haughtily, "How would this princess know if it's true or false?"

"How did you obtain this defense map?"

"If I am wrong, this princess will not admit it."

The man in black was taken aback for a moment. He said, "Why would I try to fool you with a fake map? This defense map was specially taken out of the military camp by our superiors."

"Absolutely authentic."

"A military camp?" Xie Xing narrowed his eyes. "In the last battle, Xie Tongchen won a great victory. He is brave and skilled in battle. Can you get the defense map from him?"

Xie Ansheng's heart tightened.

There were even traitors in the military camp?

The man in black sensed something was wrong.
