Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 638

Chapter 638: Chapter 635: Defending Against the Enemy_1

They mounted their horses and galloped frantically down the deserted long street, heading towards the eastern gate.

The grand gates of Dadu City stood open. Bai Qingyan, holding the Sun-shooting Bow, rode into the city slowly. The rain spattered tiny droplets on her silver armor. Following behind her was Fu Ruoxi with one arm broken, and twenty thousand soldiers from Anping Camp, exuding a killing momentum so fierce that no one dared to stand in their way.

The generals of Anping Camp hurriedly reined in their horses as they emerged from the Court of Judicial Review. The fiery horses snorted and stood still.

Liu Pinggao, the fourth-ranked general of Anping Camp, tightly gripped the reins. His horse circled before coming to a firm halt. He widened his eyes and looked into the distance...

The woman in front, clad in silver armor, radiated a sharp yet restrained murderous aura. Though she appeared frail, her strength was honed through countless battles passed through blood and death. Her power emanated from deep within, grand and imposing, making it impossible for others to look directly at her.

Whether it was because he was soaked to the bone by the heavy rain, he shivered. He shouted loudly: "It’s the Princess of Zhen and General Fu! It’s General Fu!"

Through the rain, the generals of Anping Camp saw Fu Ruoxi, and their spirits soared.

"It truly is General Fu!" the generals of Anping Camp shouted in Fu Ruoxi’s direction. "General! It must be the Princess of Zhen who saved General Fu!"

"Now that King Xin is rebelling, the Princess of Zhen has led General Fu and the Anping Camp to rescue the Emperor! With this merit, can our General Fu survive?"

"Go! Let’s head over!" Liu Pinggao spurred his horse and swiftly galloped towards the advancing army.

As Liu Pinggao and his men saw Bai Qingyan raise her hand, signaling the troops to halt, they didn’t wait for their horses to stop but dismounted instantly, kneeling on one knee to salute. "Greetings, Princess of Zhen, General Fu!"

"General!" Some generals of Anping Camp were teary-eyed.

Bai Qingyan, watching the generals of Anping Camp kneeling in the rain and glancing at Fu Ruoxi, thought of the Bai family army...

In this world, apart from blood relations, the bond forged by comrades who shared life and death is the deepest.

Once, after Liu Huanzhang betrayed her grandfather, Bai Qingyan doubted her grandfather’s words, but after seeing the loyalty of the Bai family army generals, she realized her grandfather was right.

Now, seeing the unwavering loyalty of the Anping Camp generals to Fu Ruoxi, Bai Qingyan felt that she couldn’t doubt comradeship just because of one Liu Huanzhang. This world had loyal and honorable individuals like Shen Kunyang, Wei Zhaonian, Gu Wenchang, Shen Liangyu, and Liu Pinggao of Anping Camp, but also vile ones like Liu Huanzhang.

Loyal and honorable individuals always outnumbered vile ones. Why did the Bai family army only produce one Liu Huanzhang while all other generals fought to protect the nation, sacrificing their lives for the Bai family’s young general?

Gently nudging his horse forward, Fu Ruoxi moved up to stand beside Bai Qingyan. "Today, the Anping Army must heed the orders of the Princess of Zhen, follow her command, and enter the palace to rescue the Emperor!"

"Yes!"

The generals of Anping Camp responded loudly: "We pledge to follow the Princess of Zhen to death!"

The city gate general saw Bai Qingyan dismount and his heart tightened. Why wasn’t the Princess of Zhen rushing to the Imperial City to rescue the Emperor; why did she dismount?

Fu Ruoxi also dismounted, following closely behind Bai Qingyan.

The generals of Anping Camp gathered near Bai Qingyan.
