Sitting in the carriage heading to Jiangnan, the Regent felt completely dazed.

He went there to resign, so how did he end up getting involved in flood control?

He glanced at the woman sitting opposite him.

He had practically watched this little girl grow up.

Before, whenever I saw him, I would always run far away like a mouse seeing a cat.

When did this little girl stop being afraid of him?

While the Regent was observing Lin Xue, Lin Xue was resting with her eyes closed, but her divine sense clearly saw through his expression.

This old saying goes...

If you want a horse to work, you have to feed it grass.

Lin Xue silently observed the other person in her mind, and the more she looked at him, the more satisfied she became.

In addition...

It's not good for a person to be a vegetarian all the time; they need to eat some meat occasionally.

Thinking this, Lin Xue slowly opened her eyes.

"Is the Regent looking at me like that because he is captivated by my stunning beauty?"

As soon as Lin Xue finished speaking, the Regent Prince coughed violently as if he had choked on something.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Princess, you must be joking!"

The Regent never imagined that one day, the little girl who had always been afraid of him would take the initiative to...flirt with him!

I've always heard that this princess is very bold and keeps countless male lovers in her private quarters.

Even if this girl had the guts of a bear and the courage of a leopard, she shouldn't have reached out to him...

After his initial surprise, the regent felt somewhat embarrassed.

"What's wrong with the Regent? Why is his face red?"

"I know that I am naturally beautiful, and there are few men in this Tianqi Dynasty who are worthy of me, but the Regent is one of them."

"Although the Regent is a bit old, if the Regent can satisfy this princess, this princess would not mind doting on you alone!"

Lin Xue adopted an arrogant demeanor, exactly the same as the original owner's usual expression when dealing with her male lovers.

Upon hearing Lin Xue's words, the Regent's face grew even more gloomy.

"Princess!"

He was somewhat angry and wanted to stop Lin Xue from continuing her nonsense.

One was the regent prince, and the other was the regent princess; they were the right-hand men of the Tianqi Dynasty.

Even if the regent princess did many great things that benefited the country and its people, that was not a reason for her to humiliate herself.

"Hmm~"

"You don't believe me?"

Taking advantage of the carriage's jolting motion, Lin Xue suddenly fell into the other person's arms, her lips brushing against his.

The regent's face flushed red instantly.

Although he was already 30 years old, he had always maintained a clean and virtuous life and had no intention of getting married.

Moreover, he longed for a life amidst mountains and rivers and had no desire to marry the daughters of those officials.

They were all delicate and frail, unable to lift a finger or carry anything heavy, and would complain of being tired after walking just a few steps.

After he resigns from his official post, how can such a wife keep up with him?

In addition... I haven't met anyone who truly moves me, so I've remained single.

"you!"

Feeling slighted and disrespected, Rong Jin couldn't help but frown, a surge of excitement rising within him.

No woman had ever dared to be so bold to him.

This regent princess is quite capable; I've heard she's even trained many skilled fighters for His Majesty.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party had so many men in her harem, he might actually have been tempted.

"Princess, please have some self-respect!"

With a delicate and soft woman in his arms, how could the Regent possibly remain unmoved?

If it were any other woman, he would have thrown her off the carriage long ago.

But after all, she was the emperor's sister, and her official rank was the same as his.

For whatever reason, he cannot throw people out.

What if I say no?

Lin Xue shifted her body, her eyes glistening as she looked at Rong Jin, as if a faint starlight were swirling within them.

Looking at Lin Xue like this, Rong Jin's heart suddenly began to pound uncontrollably.

But he still pushed Lin Xue out, and then jumped off the carriage himself.

"This carriage is too small, I'll go sit somewhere else."

After Rong Jin left, Lin Xue sat back down in her seat, a smile playing on her lips.

"Host, why did you fall for such an old man?"

In the modern civilized world, Rong Jin's age of 30 is not considered old.

In this ancient world, children can be born at sixteen or seventeen, so at 30, he could indeed be considered an old man.

"What do you know? This princess doesn't have time to deal with those whiny little puppies. She needs a mature and steady man like the Regent!"

629 is making a lot of noise in the system space.

But it dared not utter a single word.

629 discovered that since the host took the immoral red pill, it seemed that he had also lowered his moral standards.

In the past, in a world like this, even if she met a man she admired, she wouldn't easily make a move.

Now that he's forgotten about him and the host has taken the wicked pill, something seems different.

However, it prefers this kind of host. As a quick transmigration mission taker, one should be a little more unrestrained.

Always having to consider this and that makes life so unpleasant.

The group soon arrived in Jiangnan, where Lin Xue and Regent Rong Jin inspected the waterways.

"These waterways haven't been properly dredged in many years, have they?"

As a cultivator, Lin Xue could see more than ordinary people.

There's already so much silt in this riverbed. If it's not dredged this year, it'll be impossible to drain the water smoothly when the flood comes.
