Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1222

Chapter 1222: Chapter 1216: Heart-Stopping Moments

He rode on horseback, looking down at her, his gaze deep as a cold pool, inscrutable, yet carrying the pity of someone in a high position for the weak. He handed her the jade cicada, letting her escape for her life.

A man like this would actually tell her he fears being abandoned by her...

She used to think that in Xiao Rongyan’s world, this word never existed.

He was the strongest person in Bai Qingyan’s heart.

Her eyes reddened, repeatedly thinking about what Xiao Rongyan said... if her younger brother or sister and he were surrounded at the same time, whom would she save?

She thought she would surely save her siblings first, then save Xiao Rongyan, but this was not a choice to abandon anyone, because she trusted Xiao Rongyan’s ability, knowing his strength, knowing he would surely emerge victorious.

Because in the previous life, at least before she was reborn, the world belonged to the Yan Kingdom... it was the trend of the times, and Xiao Rongyan brought such a situation to the Yan Kingdom, leading a kingdom close to ruin, making other nations shudder.

But if she answered this way, Xiao Rongyan would surely think she is being cunning, and surely be heartbroken!

This time, she really hurt Xiao Rongyan’s heart.

Watching Xiao Rongyan already gone afar, Wei Zhong finally approached slowly, softly called: "Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince has left, allow the old servant to assist you in resting..."

"Hmm." Bai Qingyan looked after Xiao Rongyan, responding, her hand gently covering her abdomen, "Prepare, let’s return to Dadu City!"

Bai Qingyan set the date for the palace examination on March 15th, estimating that the journey back would still take considerable time, it must be starting.

"Yes!" Wei Zhong responded.

At the front line, Bai Qingyu received Bai Qingyan’s letter, mentioning that the old General Cui Shanzhong had held command for Jiangzi City, but fortunately Xiao Rongyan led the Yan Army to aid timely, relieving the crisis in Jiangzi City. She had already prepared to set off for Dadu City, letting Bai Qingyu and other younger siblings not worry, focusing on besieging the city.

She also informed Bai Qingyu that now with General Cui Shanzhong defeated in Jiangzi City, he would surely regroup, advising Bai Qingyu to be wary of ambushes from the rear, as General Cui Shanzhong’s tactics on the battlefield have always been unconventional, this defeat merely due to Xiliang being short on soldiers and provisions, he wanted too many things.

However, having suffered this defeat, General Cui Shanzhong would surely harbor great vigilance towards the Zhou Army, while guarding against Zhou, he would also guard against the Yan Kingdom. Next time if encountering General Cui, utmost caution must be exercised, but it may cooperate with Yan Army to ensure in this battle to completely pacify Xiliang.

After reading, Bai Qingyu handed the letter to Bai Jinxiu, feeling inevitably scared: "With Eldest Young Lady’s temperament, surely she wouldn’t have let the news reach the frontline. If not for the Yan Kingdom’s Ninth Prince arriving in time, the consequences of an early camp raid by Xiliang are unimaginable."

Bai Jinxiu looking at Bai Qingyan’s casual words in the letter, also felt deeply affected.

Bai Qingqi, rubbing his fingers, squinted, "If I recall correctly, earlier the Yan Kingdom’s Ninth Prince was leading forces to attack Anfen. How did he learn of Eldest Young Lady being trapped in Jiangzi City? Why did he... turn to lead forces to Jiangzi City? This seems unprofitable for the Yan Kingdom."

Because Zhou Army is abundant and fierce, strong in power, Xiliang focuses on resisting against Zhou, so along the way, Yan Army encountered few obstructions.
