Everyone Wants to Pamper the Lucky Daughter-Chapter 578 - 577: Go with the Flow, Start the Treasure Hunt_1
Chapter 578: Chapter 577: Go with the Flow, Start the Treasure Hunt_1
The father and daughter stayed up late at night in the study, analyzing the border situation, and considering whether Lin Clan’s Army could overcome the odds and manage a lucky victory if Beiming really sent a million troops to pressure the border.
The discussion yielded unsettling results.
Even though Phoenix Pass was a dangerous point where a single soldier could hold back thousands, making it easy to defend yet hard to attack, the Lin Clan’s Army had, by their courage and skill, repelled countless attacks from the Beiming Iron Riders.
However, every previous battle had been extremely dangerous.
If Xia Yan were to truly spare no efforts, using the power of the whole country and personally leading the attack…
With a million troops from Beiming willing to die, under the coercion of their ruler, stepping on the piles of corpses and seas of blood to charge forward, the soldiers at Phoenix Pass would probably not be able to hold them off.
Lin Qingluo frowned, “Father, I don’t trust the Empress. Please, write a letter and explain the importance of this matter in detail to ensure that Fourth Grandfather takes it seriously.”
“Alright, I will write it now, and send someone to deliver it to Phoenix Pass at the earliest tomorrow morning.”
Without any hesitation, Lin Xiaoyang spread out the paper, picked up the ink brush, and wrote a letter which he sealed with a wax seal in a scroll.
“There’s one more thing.”
Lin Qingluo was thoughtful, “Try to gather as much military supplies as possible to send to the frontline quickly, especially emergency medicines and bandages. I will also ask my big brother to transport some supplies from the Mystic Canyon and hand them over to you, Father.”
“Alright.”
Lin Xiaoyang solemnly nodded.
“Grandpa has been through countless battles, and if the border were to face a real crisis, instead of blindly pondering, Father should seek his opinion.”
Lin Qingluo was still worried, “Grandpa’s health has been improving lately, Father need not worry about disturbing him.”
“Alright, I understand.”
Lin Xiaoyang nodded repeatedly, more and more in awe of his daughter’s thoroughness, and asked subconsciously, “Is there anything else you want to remind me of?”
“Not for now.”
Lin Qingluo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“It’s late, you should go back and get some rest.”
Lin Xiaoyang was concerned about his daughter, “You will continue on the road tomorrow morning.”
“Hmm, Qingluo will head back now.”
Lin Qingluo smiled and stood up from her chair.
“It’s too dark outside, Father will walk you back to Fluttering Snow Residence.”
Lin Xiaoyang also got up, picked up a lantern from the bedside, lit the wick, and carried it out the door.
“Hmm, alright.”
Lin Qingluo did not decline, her eyes curving with her smile, enjoying her father’s love wholeheartedly.

From the Capital of Liyang to Xiangzhou, traveling by water was faster than riding a horse.
Lin Qingluo, preoccupied with matters, did not want to delay any longer and decided to take the water route by riding a passenger boat to Xiangzhou City.
Lin Xiaoyang, doting on his daughter, generously chartered a two-story passenger boat that could accommodate twenty people.
Together with Lin Jinyu and Lady Feng who were returning to Mystic Canyon, they set off from Liyang, passed through Mingshui County, and headed to Xiangzhou City.
When they passed by Woniu Village, Lin Jinyu and Lady Feng got off the boat, and Lin Jinyun and Lin Jinlong, two brothers, joined instead.
Eight young people full of energy, accompanied by a Little Kingfisher and a little leopard, once again embarked on a journey together to Jishui Village in search of treasure.
Riding the boat on the Weishui River under the protection of Old Turtle, their journey was both fast and steady, without feeling any bumpiness in the cabin.
With the ferryman in charge of steering, Wang Meng and Shitou had time to spare and began to bicker to pass their boredom.
Wang Meng was not good at talking and couldn’t compare with the smooth-talking Shitou, who would sometimes provoke him so much that he would get angry and want to throw a punch.
