Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 277

Chapter 277: Chapter 275: Known to All_1

Nanny Qin stepped forward with a mahogany brocade box and opened it.

She wiped her hands with a handkerchief and saw a ring inside the box. Her pupils shrank suddenly; it was Bai Qingqiong’s ring, a gift from Bai Qingyan to him.

She picked up the ring and held it tightly in her palm, then unfolded the letter. There was only one line of text on it.

"At the posthouse at You hour, come alone for a detailed discussion. Do not come late."

The You hour...

It was already the end of Shen hour now.

Bai Qingyan closed her eyes and bit her teeth, quickly calculating in her mind.

When Li Zhijie was in the southern border, he suffered a great loss. Now he sent the ring, asking her to go to the posthouse at You hour. It was either an assassination or some conspiracy waiting for her.

But what if her second brother Bai Qingqiong was really alive and in Li Zhijie’s hands?

For Bai Qingyan, nothing was more important than Bai Qingqiong.

She had to go! The letter specified she had to go alone. If she took others with her, Li Zhijie might refuse to reveal any information about Bai Qingqiong.

So...

She would go alone first to see what Li Zhijie had to say. After that, she would let Bai Jinzhi bring people over, and then send the gift Li Zhijie sent to the Crown Prince. If it turned out to be a frame-up... she would have warned the Crown Prince in advance.

"Nanny Tong, Chun Tao... send someone to call Little Four and Lu Ping over. I have something to instruct!" Bai Qingyan said while removing the iron sandbags from her wrist.

Nanny Tong and Chun Tao immediately sent people to call Fourth Miss Bai Jinzhi and Lu Ping.

"Nanny Qin... don’t tell Mother about this for now. I can handle it, there’s no need for her to worry." Bai Qingyan looked at Nanny Qin, "There’s also something I need you to do, Nanny Qin!"

"Just give your orders, Miss Bai!" Nanny Qin watched Bai Qingyan grow up. If Bai Qingyan said she could handle it, then she certainly could. Nanny Qin trusted her.

"In a moment, I’ll have Uncle Ping invite the Crown Prince to the posthouse where King Yan and the Princess of Xiliang are staying. Nanny, send a few trusted people to mix with the common folk outside the posthouse, and when you see the Crown Prince arrive..." Bai Qingyan leaned close to Nanny Qin’s ear and whispered.

Bai Jinzhi arrived quickly. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Bai Qingyan had already changed into clean and neat clothes.

"Eldest Young Lady?" Bai Jinzhi asked, breathing heavily, puzzled as she looked at Bai Qingyan.

Bai Qingyan fastened the quiver on her waist, took up the sun-shooting bow, and instructed Bai Jinzhi: "Half a stick of incense after I leave, take the Bai Mansion guards and storm the posthouse. Demand Li Zhijie to hand over your second brother! Make a big fuss, so everyone in Dadu City knows!"

"Elder sister, what are you saying?! Second brother?! Second brother is also in Li Zhijie’s hands?!" Bai Jinzhi’s eyes widened.
