Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1507

Chapter 1507: Chapter 1502: A Lifetime of Protection

The Empress Dowager of Dongyi Kingdom recalled when she met the Regent Prince of Yan Kingdom, he said... five thousand soldiers could become her backup, but it seems this backup is now gone.

The Empress Dowager of Dongyi looked at Xiao Rongyan and then at the reaction of the Yan Kingdom commander, her heart sank completely.

The remaining five thousand soldiers are probably hidden by the Regent Prince of Yan in the mountain basin by the Jade River, and these five thousand soldiers are likely already suppressed by the Emperor of Zhou, otherwise, the Emperor of Zhou would not speak so calmly about it.

Isn’t the Emperor of Zhou too formidable? What kind of person is the Regent Prince of Yan? How did it turn out that the soldiers he hid were discovered by the Emperor of Zhou so coincidentally?

The Emperor of Zhou attacked from the east, the Zhou navy attacked from the south, while Dongyi attacked from the east. Logically, the eastern part of Dongyi Kingdom should be entirely under Yan Army’s control. How on earth did Zhou... manage to discover it?

Her fingers moved slightly, and suddenly, she glanced at Bai Qingyan, once again thinking of the myth of time reversal.

Could it be that the Emperor of Zhou really has the power of time reversal because he’s been through it and knows about it? Otherwise... she couldn’t possibly believe that Zhou could, by mere coincidence, discover the location of five thousand soldiers under Yan Army’s control... in Dongyi’s eastern territory.

The Empress Dowager of Dongyi watched Bai Qingyan lift her wine glass and drink, the more she thought, the more she found it plausible, clutching the skirt of her ceremonial attire tightly, a feeling like a hundred claws scratching at her heart quietly emerged.

The Monarch of Tianfeng Kingdom said there is a pair of jade cicadas, only when the two jade cicadas are together can they perform the function of time reversal, and the Empress Dowager of Dongyi Kingdom had also heard of that legend, about the Queen of Dongyi... who frequently reversed time so that Tianfeng Kingdom could win, eventually losing her husband and child...

Upon thinking of this, the Empress Dowager of Dongyi suddenly became clear-headed. The price of time reversal is losing the person one cherishes the most. If she had to lose her own child as the price of time reversal, she would never be willing.

She recalled hearing about the time in the Jin Dynasty when Bai Qingyan lost her grandfather, father, uncle, and brothers who fell in battle at Nanjiang!

Her heartbeat accelerated, as if she suddenly understood the crucial point, realizing why so many in the Bai family suddenly died; it seems... all of this is the cost of Bai Qingyan’s time reversal!

This woman, unexpectedly... has such a ruthless heart!

Bai Qingyan noticed from the corner of her eye the Empress Dowager of Dongyi staring at her, she turned to look at the Empress Dowager of Dongyi, smiling and asked, "Why is the Empress Dowager looking at me like this, is it... do I have something inappropriate?"

The Empress Dowager of Dongyi tightly clutched the luxuriously embroidered skirt of her ceremonial attire, restraining herself from showing any smile to Bai Qingyan, and said: "I just think that Your Majesty is extraordinarily talented and so beautiful. I heard the Emperor of Zhou’s royal consort has passed, does Your Majesty... plan to enrich the harem once more?"

Xiao Rongyan lifted his gaze towards the direction of the Empress Dowager of Dongyi, with a half-smile: "What, does Dongyi Kingdom have some noble family’s young lord, wanting to offer himself as a bed companion?"

Bai Jinzhi, upon hearing this, had just taken a sip of wine and hadn’t had the chance to swallow before looking towards Xiao Rongyan’s direction, thinking... could it be that his elder brother-in-law is jealous?
