Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1095

Chapter 1095 -1089: Improper Conduct Before the Emperor

Today was the first meeting between Xie Xun and Bai Qingyu, so it wasn’t convenient for him to ask about Bai Qingyu’s past whereabouts…

In any case, the grace of saving his life this time by Bai Qingyu was genuine, and Xie Xun felt deeply grateful. He bowed deeply again to Bai Qingyu before mounting his horse to leave with Murong Yan and Murong Li, leading the Yan Army away.

After seeing off the Emperor of Yan and the Regent Prince, Bai Qingyu returned with Bai Jinzhi, only to hear that Bai Qingyan had already gone to inspect the camp. Bai Qingyu was taken aback… then remembered his father’s habit when Bai Qishan was alive. No matter how exhausting a battle was, his father always visited the wounded soldiers’ camp before he could rest easy, and now his sister was the same.

“Little Fourth, you should go back and rest!” Bai Qingyu turned to Bai Jinzhi and said, “The day after tomorrow we march, Fifth Brother is counting on you!”

Upon hearing this, Bai Jinzhi smiled broadly and nodded vigorously: “Fifth Brother, rest assured, Little Fourth will do his utmost!”

“Go on then!” Bai Qingyu nodded to Bai Jinzhi.

The snow continued to fall heavily, covering the land outside Pingyang City stained red with blood and snow, hiding the blood and dismembered limbs beneath its pure white cover, presenting a scene of peace and tranquility.

Inside the city, soldiers were busy bandaging and applying medicine to their comrades’ wounds, while civilians helped transport stones and timber to repair the city gates damaged by the giant elephants…

Last night’s battle saw many soldiers of Zhou sacrificing their lives, with even more injured. After all, being trampled by a giant elephant was no laughing matter.

Lu Yuanpeng’s horse was kicked away by an elephant that was fleeing under the influence of spicy smoke. Lu Yuanpeng coughed up blood and fainted on the spot. If it weren’t for Sima Ping dragging the unconscious Lu Yuanpeng from under the elephant’s feet at the risk of his life, Lu Yuanpeng might have already become a meat pie by now.

But Sima Ping also took a slash on the back from a Xiliang soldier, and now he lay in the barracks enduring the pain while the military doctor applied medicine.

“How is Lu Yuanpeng?” Sima Ping glanced at the still-unconscious Lu Yuanpeng and asked worriedly.

“Rest assured, General Ma, General Lu is fine… Last night His Majesty had Doctor Hong personally come to take a look. Doctor Hong said the ribs are injured but it’s not serious, there are no internal injuries.” The military doctor covered Sima Ping with a blanket, washed his hands by the water basin, and said, “Before your injury heals, General Ma, you’ll have to sleep on your stomach.”

Sima Ping enlisted under the alias Ma San, and in the army, everyone called Sima Ping General Ma.

Sima Ping looked again at Lu Yuanpeng, who had his eyes closed tightly, and couldn’t help but worry, “So why hasn’t he woken up yet?”

“General Lu is just asleep now…” The military doctor smiled as he wiped his hands with a cloth and packed the medicine box, “General Lu even woke up once when His Majesty came to inspect the camp.” 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Sima Ping: “…”

Just as they were speaking, Lu Yuanpeng, lying on the window, suddenly mumbled, extended his hands to stretch lazily from under the blanket, but strained his wound, grimacing in pain immediately.

Wei Zhong entered, pulling the curtain aside, and saw Lu Yuanpeng grimacing in pain. He laughed and said, “Is General Lu awake now?”

The military doctor hurriedly saluted Wei Zhong.

Seeing that it was Wei Zhong who entered, Lu Yuanpeng immediately sprang out of bed in his underclothes and saluted Wei Zhong briskly: “Eunuch Wei, are you here on behalf of the Bai family sister… has His Majesty sent you?”
