Once Ling had distanced herself, the child lifted their head slightly, observing the direction she had departed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a nonchalant shrug, she patted her dingy clothes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the act of dispersing dust proved less than favorable. The child coughed twice, quickly covering their mouth with a petite hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao sighed inwardly, straightening her body and taking a few unsteady steps forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The highly spiritual earth-level demonstration talisman she employed was a transformation talisman. As its name suggested, it altered the appearance of the body. Qiaoqiao possessed only one such talisman and was unaware of the specific transformation it would induce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had presumed it might turn her into a small animal or something of the sort. To her surprise, the extent of this transformation reduced her from a sixteen-year-old girl to a five-year-old child.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The transformation consumed more than seven days, a duration she found rather deceptive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being an ordinary child from a peasant family, she had to play the part convincingly. There was no need to walk with an air of grace; the little lady swayed and moved forward with deliberate unsteadiness. As expected, Ling turned back, scrutinizing her with a deep gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiaoqiao chuckled ironically. She wasn't oblivious; even if she didn't know Ling had flown past, she remained concealed in the shadows, attentively observing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had conveniently acquired this dirty and worn cotton jacket from someone else's drying rack. Surprisingly, it fit her quite well!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her disguise was so flawless that even Ling, who had encountered her a few times in her life, would be unlikely to recognize her. In fact, even her own parents might not discern her in this altered appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiaoqiao chuckled ironically, thinking, \"You think you can identify Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao with that oblivious expression of yours? Oh, please!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling privately chuckled at her own paranoia, then turned around and swiftly crossed the river.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Mu breathed a sigh of relief, though her delicate brows knit in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite Ling's interference, sneaking to the side of the Spring River remained a risky venture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forget it, I'll find a secure place to hide first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Young Sir Qin and his group combed the village surroundings. Upon regrouping, a hint of uncertainty flickered in their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She couldn't have run so quickly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did she leap into the river again?\" inquired the short, stout man, swinging his purple-gold hammer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Considering the girl's fiery temperament, he speculated that she might prefer leaping into the river rather than being captured by them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No sign of her aura by the river,\" Ling replied with an alluring glance, causing the short man to shudder and fall silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you encounter anyone on your way here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now that I think about it, there weren't many people. You all saw it—there was a little imp playing in the mud under that tree. I…\" Ling suddenly halted, staring at Second Young Sir Qin in astonishment. \"Wait a minute! When we used our divine senses to scan this area earlier, there was no trace of that imp's aura?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Find him,\" Second Young Sir Qin ordered, leading his men back to the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He chuckled ironically. How many times could a group of His Excellency be deceived by a half-grown little trickster?\u003C\u002Fp>",607,"2026-06-05T15:47:34.271Z",1,"novelbin.me","e14fbc9f539176ff2ba6ea67b3c17444edca95bedacd17e67cfec4f597791eb6","my-crown-prince-consort-is-a-firecracker-chapter-3042","my-crown-prince-consort-is-a-firecracker-chapter-3040",3175,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmy-crown-prince-consort-is-a-firecracker-cover.jpg"]
