Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1411

Chapter 1411: Chapter 1406: Rough Man

"If the King of Hancheng requests troops, let someone take troops there. If the King of Hancheng requests troops for rebellion... it’s perfect that our army is there, we can settle the mess right then and there!" Bai Qingyan’s voice fell, and the smile in her eyes deepened, "But, I bet... the King of Hancheng is requesting troops to protect the coastal residents!"

This really shows deep trust in the King of Hancheng. Lu Yuanpeng felt a vague worry in his heart, but seeing Bai Qingyan so determined, being Bai Qingyan’s most valued official, Lu Yuanpeng felt he couldn’t say much more, and simply asked, "If so, who does His Majesty plan to send to lead the troops?"

"I’ll go!" Bai Qingyu spoke up.

"A Yu has just returned and should spend more time with Auntie, and A Yu’s injuries are quite severe and have just healed! It’s better if I go..." Bai Qingqi said steadily, "Moreover, A Yu is the full brother of the Eldest Young Lady, going there would inevitably give the impression of using his identity to override the King of Hancheng."

"If third brother goes, wouldn’t it also be an impression of using his identity to override the King of Hancheng?" Bai Jinzhi realized as she spoke that she was blocking her own path to request to go to Daliang, so she pursed her lips, clasping her hands together, and said to Bai Qingyan, "Eldest Young Lady, why not... let General Cheng and the others go to redeem themselves?" 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Bai Jinzhi’s remark instantly resonated with Bai Qingyan’s intentions...

After all, stripping Cheng Yuanzhi and the others of their positions was just a minor punishment for major caution. These few people still need opportunities to be used, and this time is a very good opportunity.

However, neither Bai Qingyan nor Bai Qingqi nor Bai Qingyu expected this remark to come from Bai Jinzhi.

"Usually, where there’s a fight, little fourth always rushes there? Today... unexpectedly doesn’t fight for it?" Bai Qingqi couldn’t help but chuckle quietly.

"I’m not a fool!" Bai Jinzhi puffed out her chest, "If the King of Hancheng, as the Eldest Young Lady says, doesn’t intend to rebel, then upon arrival, we’ll follow the King of Hancheng’s command. I’m a dignified prince! Still a prince overtaken by the King of Hancheng! Why should I listen to his command? If the King of Hancheng does want to rebel... the Imperial Court will definitely recruit troops, and then it’s time to fight the King of Hancheng! At that time, when I go... I’ll beat him so hard he won’t recognize his own mother, so hard he’ll call me ancestor!"

Lu Yuanpeng observed Bai Jinzhi and discovered she was not as simple-minded and rash as rumors suggested; she was actually quite smart, but... this talk of fighting and killing, calling mother and ancestor, was overly blunt, much like a rough fellow in a military camp.

He suddenly recalled hearing from his son that Mrs. Li, the third lady of the Bai family, seemed to be looking for a marriage for Bai Jinzhi, and Lu Yuanpeng couldn’t help but feel sympathy for the future in-laws of Gaoyi King, having such a daughter-in-law, it seems... just like having a Lu Yuanpeng at home, it’s bound to be lively.

Bai Qingyan cleared her throat, indicating to Bai Jinzhi to restrain herself before Lu Yuanpeng. Bai Jinzhi realized and sheepishly smiled, clasping her hands towards Lu Yuanpeng, "Commandant, I’ve been in the military camp for too long, all because General Cheng led me to become like this. My mother is pressing me to change recently, please don’t mind, Commandant!"

"Not at all!" Lu Yuanpeng hurriedly extended his hands towards Bai Jinzhi, "Gaoyi King is straightforward, bold... and has a chivalrous spirit, all of Dadu City knows this, how could an old minister mind! If I may speak boldly, Gaoyi King is about the same age as my granddaughter. If my granddaughter at home has half of Gaoyi King’s liveliness, it wouldn’t be as quiet as it is after Lu Yuanpeng departed!"

Lu Yuanpeng, having served the Emperor of Jin for a long time, crafted compliments that are both genuine yet polite, leaving Bai Jinzhi even happier and prouder after hearing them.

"Commandant Lu is too courteous! Commandant Lu being the Imperial Master of the Eldest Young Lady, if in the future Lu Yuanpeng isn’t around... if Commandant Lu finds the house too quiet, just have Fenglang send invitations to me and cousin Tingzhen!" Bai Jinzhi said with loyal enthusiasm.

Since returning from southern Jiang, Bai Jinzhi has already become close friends with Lu Fenglang and Dong Tingzhen.
