Chapter 526: Chapter 525: Wang Clan’s Young Master, Secret Talk_1

Lin Qingluo happily accepted the gift and invited the guests into her father’s study for a private conversation.

When Wang Rong first heard Lin Qingluo’s plan to build defensive fortifications, he was so shocked that his heart and lungs nearly stopped, and he almost stood frozen on the spot.

Luo Zhan was also stupefied, finding it hard to believe.

After a brief moment of shock, the two of them composed themselves and were deeply impressed by her foresight and her righteous and noble dedication to the country and her people.

“Little Qingluo, your Brother Zhan admires no one but you.”

Luo Zhan said this again, with utmost sincerity.

“Miss Lin, on behalf of the people of Long City, I express our gratitude for your great kindness.”

Wang Rong clasped his hands and respectfully bowed.

“Mr. Wang, I intend to build a strong defensive line at the border not only for the people of Long City but also for all the people along the eastern border area.”

Lin Qingluo’s eyes shone brightly: “That’s why this defensive line will be built over a longer period and distance than ever before. Once started, there’s no turning back, so Mr. Wang, you must be well prepared.”

“I understand.”

Wang Rong, just as Lin Qingluo had expected, was a trustworthy person. Without any hesitation, he readily agreed: “For the sake of stability at the border, I will do my utmost to handle this matter.”

Luo Zhan also spoke righteously: “Little Qingluo, don’t worry. I guarantee that the Jufeng Trading Company will do everything it can to help and support the people in building their defenses.”

“That’s very good.”

Lin Qingluo’s smile was warm: “I would like to thank both of my big brothers for their strong support.”

“Ha-ha, Little Qingluo, there’s no need for you to be polite with your Brother Zhan.”

The term “big brother” delighted Luo Zhan, making him smile brightly: “What’s our relationship? I’ve watched you grow up since you were a child. It’s not an exaggeration to call me your real big brother.”

Wang Rong’s ears turned slightly red, being struck by Luo Zhan’s thick-skinned remark.

“Brother Rong, Brother Zhan, please come to the desk. Let’s discuss the best location for building the defensive works.”

Lin Qingluo didn’t mind, smiling amiably. She opened the Chronicles of the Seven Kingdoms and turned to the page with Long City.

“Sure.”

Luo Zhan and Wang Rong both focused, their faces serious as they gathered around the desk and shared their opinions.

After discussing for an entire afternoon and developing a rough outline, Lin Qingluo saw that it was getting late. She warmly invited the two to stay for dinner.

Both men happily agreed, enjoying dinner with Lin Qingluo in the Autumn Scene Garden. They arranged a time for their next meeting to discuss further, then finally left feeling satisfied.

Worried about the Little Prince, Lin Qingluo pretended to sleep that night, then once again snuck into the Imperial Palace unnoticed and arrived at the Serene Snow Pavilion.

The Empress and the Noble Lord were there, playing and enjoying the company of the Little Prince.

Lin Qingluo hid in the shadows, watching the Empress showering the Prince with love, embracing him, and laughing with joy.

She felt a tinge of contempt deep within her heart.

An emperor who regards the lives of soldiers and people as insignificant, how could they deserve to hold such absolute power and indulge in pleasure at will?

The night was deep, and the Empress began to show signs of fatigue.

The Noble Lord accompanied her to the warm chamber for rest, while the Little Prince was attended by a Palace Maid for washing and sleeping.

When everyone had put out the lights and gone to sleep, Lin Qingluo finally emerged from the shadows, approaching the Little Prince’s bed to check if he was sleeping soundly.

“Sister.”

Unexpectedly, the Little Prince was not asleep. Upon hearing the sound, he opened his eyes with delight, quickly climbed out of bed, and threw himself into his sister’s embrace.
