Chapter 196 -194: Confidence_1

Xiao Ruojiang’s voice trembled with excitement: “However, my brother asked me to inform you, Miss Bai, that he had no time to report to you and took people out of the camp to chase after that person. He said he wanted to help Miss Shen find the Seventh and Ninth Young Masters as soon as possible!”

Because she received news that her two younger brothers had survived, Bai Qingyan rarely showed joy on her face. She tightly clenched her fist and nodded: “I understand. If my milk brother sends someone back with a message, quietly bring the person to me immediately!”

“Understood!” Xiao Ruojiang nodded.

This time, the situation was indeed sudden. Xiao Ruojiang was overwhelmed by the news and didn’t have time to detain the person. It was his brother Xiao Ruohai who responded first when he learned about it. Using the excuse that he was investigating the Xiliang army’s layout around, he took the dead men of the Dong family who had been secretly following Bai Qingyan to chase after them.

She turned her head and instructed Bai Jinzhi again: “You just need to know about this matter. Don’t let others know… Otherwise, if the Crown Prince hears about it and reports back to the Capital, our grandmother is now in the Imperial Qing Temple… the Bai family will surely suffer!”

How could Bai Jinzhi not know the seriousness of the situation? The Emperor’s hostility towards the Bai family was already very evident during the palace banquet.

“Don’t worry, Eldest Sister! Before this matter is settled, I will remain calm. Even if it rots in my belly, I won’t say a word!” Bai Jinzhi said excitedly, finally understanding that her eldest sister came to the southern border not only to expand the Bai family’s influence in the military but also probably to rescue the Seventh and Ninth Brothers!

Although Bai Jinzhi said she would remain calm, she couldn’t help but tear up and ask Bai Qingyan: “Eldest Sister, am I dreaming? Is it really possible that the Seventh and Ninth Brothers are still alive?”

After all, Bai Jinzhi was still a child. Tears kept welling up in her eyes. The fact that she managed to hold back her tears already impressed Bai Qingyan greatly!

She nodded, squeezed Bai Jinzhi’s small hand, and softly said: “There’s no one else here at Jinghe. If you want to cry, go ahead and cry. If anyone asks, just say you miss your grandfather and father!”

As soon as Bai Qingyan finished speaking, Bai Jinzhi’s tears spilled over. It was wonderful… The Seventh and Ninth Brothers were still alive. If Fourth Aunt knew that the Seventh Brother was alive, she wouldn’t be living like a walking corpse and desperately seeking death. She would definitely live a long and healthy life for the Seventh Brother!

After crying by the Jinghe River, Bai Jinzhi and Bai Qingyan had just returned to the camp when they received the news that the Crown Prince would arrive in half an hour.

Bai Qingyan did not expect the Crown Prince to arrive so quickly, almost at the same time as Qin Shangzhi’s message.

To show her gratitude and loyalty to the Crown Prince, she ordered someone to take out a supreme sword obtained after seizing Tianmen Pass, intending to present it to the Crown Prince as a token of loyalty.

Bai Qingyan sat in the command tent, looking at the cold shining blade that could cut hair when blown upon. She remembered her younger brother A Yu, who was the best at using swords. In Dadu City, he had no match.

She recalled that during her first expedition, the height of A Yu did not even reach her chest. He held her reins, looked up with a toothless mouth revealing pink gums, and smiled: “Sister, if you capture an enemy general’s sword, please save it for A Yu!”

At that time, she promised A Yu a sword, but after that, she never found one worthy of A Yu. Now that she found one… But A Yu was no longer there.

She couldn’t fulfill her promise to give A Yu a sword, and A Yu couldn’t fulfill his promise to give her the most beautiful pigeon blood stone in the southern region!
