My Princess Holds Superpowers-Chapter 172 - enters the Guard Office

Chapter 172: 172 enters the Guard Office.

Chapter 172: 172 enters the Guard Office.

The sky was still light when Ye Jiu was taken to the Dance Workshop by Si Rong, under Sikong Mo’s arrangements.

This Dance Workshop was well-known in Cloud City. Many wealthy officials would invite the dancing girls from the Workshop to perform at their banquets; naturally, the Guard Office could not omit this arrangement in welcoming General Wei Hu.

“There’s a dancing girl in the Workshop who’s one of our own. You’ll follow her in later, then find a way to get close to General Wei Hu. After you get the key from him, return and hand it to the dancing girl. You can then find a place to hide,” Si Rong said.

“Why do I need to come back? Can’t you just have someone follow me from a hidden spot, and once I get the key, I can hand it directly to you?” Most importantly, this would offer some protection just in case something unexpected happened!

Ye Jiu had a good plan, but things simply did not go in the direction she hoped.

“That old codger is highly skilled in martial arts. If someone’s lurking in the shadows, he’s bound to notice. We can’t risk startling the snake, so you’ll have to rely on yourself,” Si Rong explained.

Ye Jiu pursed her lips, her last bit of hope dashed.

Indeed, in this lifetime, the only one she could rely on was herself!

Si Rong left her with the dancing girl at the Dance Workshop and left without looking back.

However, Ye Jiu recognized this so-called dancing girl.

“Ying Luoxue, so you weren’t trafficked but came here to be an undercover agent?” Ye Jiu said.

Then she thought for a moment and felt something was off.

Ying Luoxue was trafficked alongside her from Dongyue, but at that time, the two countries hadn’t yet gone to war, had they? How could they have been so prescient as to place Ying Luoxue inside the Dance Workshop?

Ying Luoxue gave a stiff smile, her mouth corners twitching in bitterness, and asked, “Miss, do you recognize me?”

Ye Jiu subconsciously touched her own face, then realized that the drastic change in her skin tone, combined with the makeup, made her look like a completely different person from before.

No wonder Ying Luoxue did not recognize her.

“Heh, I’ve heard,” Ye Jiu said, her mouth awkwardly twisting into a smile.

“Furong, are you ready yet? Hurry up, we’re setting off,” the voice of the old matron called from outside.

“Ready now, I’m coming,” Ying Luoxue replied, then turned back to Ye Jiu and said, “Miss, once we go out, you can call me Furong.”

“Mhm,” Ye Jiu nodded.

In this way, Ye Jiu successfully infiltrated the Guard Office under the guise of Ying Luoxue’s maid.

But after entering, they were ordered not to roam around. All the dancing girls were waiting in one place to be called for their performance.

As night approached, the sound of music and celebration began to resound outside.

Under the leader’s arrangement, Ying Luoxue went to perform in the hall, but Ye Jiu couldn’t follow.

Looking at the empty room, Ye Jiu became anxious.

If things continued like this, she probably wouldn’t have a chance to get near General Wei Wu until it was time to leave the Guard Office.

She quietly moved to the door and opened a crack, observing the outside. Seeing that no one was guarding, she slipped out like a shadow.

Hiding in the shadows, Ye Jiu watched the hall where the lights were bright, the dancing girls were striking seductive poses in their dance, and the men were loudly bantering.

Unfortunately, as a maid, she couldn’t enter.

Ye Jiu crouched for a long time, increasingly feeling the urgency inside.

Suddenly, she saw someone come out and head towards the back garden.

Ye Jiu crept after them…

Unfortunately, she was too far away to see the cold gleam in that person’s eyes!
