Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 839

Chapter 839: Chapter 836: Panic at the Sound of Wind and Cranes

Bai Jinxiu’s tone shifted: "However, at this moment... the city gates are likely manned by Fan Yuhuai’s men. Whether it’s to let the Crown Princess Consort and little Imperial Grandson out of the city, or to send someone to deliver a message to the Eldest Young Lady and General Liu from the Crown Prince, Xie Yuchang must first secure support from his old subordinates and quietly replace the city gate guards."

With a panicked heart, the Crown Prince nodded. He only thought of Bai Qingyan, who was loyal to him, and exclaimed loudly: "Quan Yu, go get the tiger tally! Have the Hidden Guards of the Crown Prince’s Mansion immediately deliver it to the Princess of Zhen!"

"Your Highness!" Ren Shijie hurried forward, "If you send the tiger tally to the Princess of Zhen now, what if it is intercepted while leaving the city?! Mrs. Qin said that whether it’s to send the Crown Princess Consort and the little Imperial Grandson out of the city, or to inform the Princess of Zhen, Xie Yuchang must lead the Imperial Guards to change the guard. It’s better to hand the tiger tally to Xie Yuchang!"

The Crown Prince nodded upon hearing this and ordered: "Send someone to deliver the tiger tally to Xie Yuchang!"

After discussing with Ren Shijie and the Crown Prince, Bai Jinxiu decided that the Crown Prince’s safety would be handled by Mr. Ren, the counselor of the Crown Prince’s Mansion, and the guards of the Crown Prince’s Mansion. She believed that the more people knew the Crown Prince’s location, the more dangerous it would be. Therefore, she entrusted the arrangement of the Crown Prince’s safety to Mr. Ren, who the Crown Prince trusted deeply, and reminded him not to enter the palace until it was confirmed how many men Xie Yuchang could gather.

After a busy night, Bai Jinxiu returned to the Qin Mansion just before dawn.

Cuiyu had been waiting at the courtyard gate for Bai Jinxiu. As soon as she saw Bai Jinxiu return, she hurried forward and said to Bai Jinxiu: "Madam, last night we spoke to the two young ladies of the Qin family, asking them to visit their maternal family early tomorrow with the Second Master. However, they not only refused but also spoke harshly to Madam, saying that... Madam intends to take over the entire Qin family while their brother is away and bully them, shouting that they would report to the authorities..."

Cuiyu spoke very tactfully, not telling Bai Jinxiu all the filthy words the two ungrateful young ladies of the Qin family had said, fearing it would sully Bai Jinxiu’s ears. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Bai Jinxiu untied her cloak and replied calmly: "Since they don’t want to leave, then let them stay!"

"Yes!" Cuiyu responded and accompanied Bai Jinxiu into the brightly lit main hall.

The sky above Dadu City was covered with dense black clouds, showing no sign of dawn, as a fierce wind howled, sending the entire city into a state of alarm and anxiety.

Shen Bozhong, carrying the unconscious Mrs. Liu, and Bicui, holding Wang Geer, left Dadu City and rode their horses toward the Royal Qing Temple.

Deep in the night, Cuibi knocked on the back door of the Royal Qing Temple, where she was met by Bai Jinse, who had risen at the news.

Though young, Bai Jinse was decisive. Upon hearing from the servant that Bicui was seeking an audience with Wang Geer, she quickly dressed and instructed not to disturb her grandmother; she would handle it herself.

Bicui recounted the happenings in Dadu City to Bai Jinse and said: "Seventh Young Lady, Mr. Shen is still waiting outside. Please inform the Eldest Princess, then we can depart!"

Bai Jinse sat silently for a moment before calling out: "Wei Zhong!"

Wei Zhong answered from outside the door and entered, lifting the curtain: "Seventh Young Lady."
