Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1401

Chapter 1401: Chapter 1396: Rest Assured

The Prince of Yan exhibited such a humble stance, apologizing on behalf of Empress Dowager Yan, even if just to show those Zhou soldiers, leaving them no excuse to attack the Yan Kingdom.

Bai Qingyan finished reading Xiao Rongyan’s letter and told Wei Zhong, "Then let this Crown Prince of Yan come. Otherwise, outsiders might think our Zhou is slighting these three Yan envoys."

"Your Majesty, the Auxiliary General has requested an audience outside," a young eunuch reported in a low voice upon entering.

"Let him in!" Bai Qingyan placed her pen on the inkstone and picked up another memorial to the throne.

After entering the hall and greeting Bai Qingyan, Bai Jinxiu sat quietly beside her, kneeling: "Upon entering the palace, I saw the Crown Prince and Second Prince of Yan and General Xie Xun waiting at the palace gates, probably after hearing about General Cheng’s request to send troops to the Yan Kingdom, seeking an audience with the Eldest Young Lady."

"Later, pass a message to A Qi and Ah Jue, if there’s nothing else, perhaps invite this Crown Prince of Yan, Second Prince, and General Xie Xun to visit the Bai Mansion. It would gesture to the outsiders, especially since this Crown Prince of Yan is naturally timid. If he is given the cold shoulder in Zhou, he may well think it’s my personal intent."

"How does the Eldest Young Lady know that the Crown Prince of Yan is timid?" Bai Jinxiu smiled, slightly nodding at Chun Tao who served her tea, then said with a smile, "I see this Crown Prince of Yan as quite brave; while envoys from other states often lay low, he dares to seek an audience with the Eldest Young Lady in court."

Bai Qingyan smiled, "This... is what I admire about the Crown Prince of Yan. Despite being timid and fearful, he dares to face his fears for the sake of home and country. To act in spite of fear is true courage, worthy of being Murong Yu’s descendant."

Both Bai Jinzhi’s and Xiao Rongyan’s letters mentioned that this Crown Prince of Yan has a gentle disposition, but despite this, he dares to do what others wouldn’t and is unafraid to humble himself for apologies. Not everyone can do such a thing.

By calculation, Jintong should have received my letter...

The Second Prince, Murong Ping, had previously conspired with "Cui Fengnian" for business dealings. Upon returning, it’s likely that Xiao Rongyan will take over. Xiao Rongyan has met Bai Jintong before, so Bai Qingyan explicitly informed Bai Jintong of Xiao Rongyan’s identity, advising caution to prevent exposure.

Naturally, this is merely Bai Qingyan’s concern. It might... be the case that Yan’s explanation regarding "Cui Fengnian" aligns with the Second Prince’s business, necessitating the use of the Second Prince’s network to contact "Cui Fengnian," while Xiao Rongyan will only manage from behind the scenes, avoiding direct encounters.

However, it remains crucial to inform Bai Jintong about Xiao Rongyan’s identity, especially as Bai Jintong is currently in the Yan Kingdom.
