Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1372

Chapter 1372: Chapter 1367: Surveillance

"Understood, Uncle Hao, don’t worry!" Bai Qingyan said with a smile, "I’ll be off..."

"Hey! Take your time, young lady..." Steward Hao stood at the door, watching Bai Qingyan board the carriage. Only when even the dust raised by the carriage was out of sight did he turn back to Bai Mansion, ready to prepare for the refurbishment to welcome Bai Qingyu, Bai Qingqi, Bai Qingjue, and Bai Qingyun.

Inside the carriage, Chun Tao gently fanned Bai Qingyan with a round fan, whispering, "It seems General Gao has recovered well. You can rest easy now, young lady."

"Hmm..." Bai Qingyan responded with a smile, "When Jinxiu returns and sees General Gao, she will be delighted!"

"It’s a pity, Second Master will never return," Chun Zhi said somberly, then realized she might upset Bai Qingyan and turned to lift the carriage window veil to look outside, "Young lady, look... even in this heat, Dadu City is bustling, all thanks to your wise governance."

"Our Chun Zhi has learned to flatter!" Bai Qingyan said, though her gaze inevitably followed the narrow slit Chun Zhi created, looking at the bustling street crowd.

Suddenly, a man with the hairstyle of a Zhou gentleman, wearing a jade tube headgear, walked past the carriage, and Bai Qingyan’s eyes suddenly narrowed...

Sal Khan?!

"Stop the carriage!" Bai Qingyan’s smile disappeared. "Wei Zhong!"

At her call, Wei Zhong quickly ordered the coachman to rein in the horses and jumped off the carriage, walking to the carriage window, "Young lady..."

Bai Qingyan’s fingers, fair and jade-like, lifted the curtain slightly. She whispered a few words to Wei Zhong, who immediately responded, "Yes! Rest assured, young lady!"

Bai Qingyan lowered the window, and after Wei Zhong saw the carriage off, he also departed.

"Young lady... what’s wrong?" Chun Tao clearly noticed something was amiss with their young lady’s demeanor, filled with a murderous aura.

She genuinely hadn’t expected Sal Khan to have already infiltrated Dadu City...

With A Qi and A Yu and Jinxiu over at the South Frontier, it was impossible for Sal Khan to have come from there. Therefore... Sal Khan must have discovered that river Jintong found and come around from there.

Bai Qingyan’s fingers tapped lightly on the table inside the carriage, instructing the coachman, "Drive the carriage to the back alley."

Soon, the coachman drove the carriage to the back alley.

"Where are the Hidden Guards of the Bai family?" Bai Qingyan called out.

Soon, the carriage curtains fluttered, and several figures were already kneeling outside, "Young lady, please instruct us!"

"Since Xingchen went to the South Frontier, who leads you now?" Bai Qingyan asked, lifting a slit in the carriage curtain.

"Subordinate Weisu!"

Bai Qingyan looked at Weisu and said, "Take half the men to catch up with Eunuch Wei. If the person Eunuch Wei apprehends resists, do not spare them; slay them on the spot! The other half, go check the Imperial Mausoleum for any abnormalities."

"Yes!"
