Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1487

Chapter 1487: Chapter 1482: The Fisherman Profits

Bai Qingyan still remembered that Xiao Rongyan once told her that the King of Xihuai had said he was not as ambitious as his little nephew. So even though Bai Qingyan had never spoken at length with Tuoba Yao, she knew that this child’s heart must be filled with hatred towards the Yan Kingdom, and it’s unlikely that this child would guard against his uncle, the King of Xihuai.

Moreover, for the kindness that Little Seven once showed him by saving his life, Tuoba Yao, despite being a prince of high status, willingly became Little Seven’s guard, proving that he is a person of deep affections and loyalty.

Perhaps because his family was decimated, even though he was just a weak child, Tuoba Yao harbored such intense feelings of revenge, and was even able to endure for that hatred. It reminded Bai Qingyan of herself before she was reborn. She wanted to help this child but didn’t want to deceive him with pleasant words as King Liang had done to her. Even though he was still young, she was honest about her intentions to use him.

"King of Xihuai probably still needs to seek out Tuoba Yao, and he’s already aware that Tuoba Yao is with our Bai family, so he will have to find a way to respond once he returns!" Bai Qingjue thought of why Little Seven had brought Tuoba Yao to Jinguan City.

"Once matters here with the Dongyi Kingdom are settled, I’ll return to meet with the King of Xihuai myself," Bai Qingyan said, leaping onto her horse. "Where is the Regent Prince of Yan’s army now?"

Bai Qingjue mounted his horse as well and replied, "I estimate it’s about four or five miles from the western gate of the Dongyi Kingdom’s capital. Regardless, they won’t be faster than our Bai family army."

She nodded and looked at her youngest sister, dressed in battle attire, smiling as she asked, "Did you bring armor when you came?"

Bai Jinse nodded, "I did!"

"Qingzhu, help Little Seven change! Enter the city with the main army!" Bai Qingyan said as she turned her horse towards the direction of the army.

"Yes!" Shen Qingzhu responded.

Bai Jinse changed into silver armor. As soon as she and Shen Qingzhu joined the main army, Bai Jinzhi pulled her over.

"Quickly enlighten Fourth Sister! Why did you bring that guard of yours here? And what is that matter about the end... what kind of end where you fight the Yan Kingdom to the bitter end?" Bai Jinzhi, riding beside Bai Jinse, lowered her voice to ask.

Bai Jinse smiled, knowing that her fourth sister couldn’t keep things to herself, and said, "Fourth Sister should know that the person I call Yusheng was picked up by me from Xiliang. Yusheng’s parents were killed by the Yan Army’s swords, so he harbors hatred for the Yan Kingdom! Eldest Sister’s intention is to have Yusheng remain in the Dongyi Kingdom as a spy. After all, Yusheng is young and wouldn’t be suspected, and since our Bai family has shown kindness to Yusheng, he won’t betray us. That’s the long and short of it."

"Oh..." Bai Jinzhi nodded, no longer pressing for answers, and just followed behind their Eldest Sister and brother, making their way to the Dongyi Kingdom.

In the distance, soldiers standing atop the city walls of the Dongyi Kingdom’s capital caught sight of the black flag with a white serpent and the formidable Bai family army, surging forth like a black tide. They immediately ran down from the city walls to report to the Empress, "Your Majesty, the Bai family army has arrived!"

With those words, the court officials who had just endured the assassination of the new Emperor straightened their backs.

The Empress adjusted her outer garment, feeling a layer of clammy sweat on her palms for reasons unknown. She asked the head of the Imperial Guards beside her, "Where has the Yan Kingdom’s Regent Prince led his army?"
