Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 932

Chapter 932: Chapter 928: Revenge

Xiao Rongyan’s palm tightened. Indeed, the young emperor of Wei had escaped. Despite multiple pursuits by Yan, they couldn’t find him and didn’t know where he was hiding.

For Yan, having the young emperor of Wei alive was always a hidden threat.

"Is His Majesty... safe now?" Xiao Rongyan suppressed the emotions in his eyes and asked in a low voice.

"What? Do you also wish for restoration?" The King of Xihuai laughed and said, "Forget it, Rongyan! Previously, my little nephew indeed intended for me to seek you out, but I didn’t agree... Even if you’re the wealthiest merchant in the world, you shouldn’t be expected to exhaust your wealth just because you’re Wei, for the sake of restoration."

The King of Xihuai’s laugh was uglier than a cry. As a member of the Wei imperial clan, how could he not wish for Wei’s restoration? He just knew... it was hopeless and didn’t want to implicate his friends any further.

"Yan is strong, and Wei is doomed to never see restoration! Now all these actions by my little nephew, clamoring for restoration, are nothing more than child’s play, unable to form any real threat. Why should you tire yourself out, squandering your wealth?"

Xiao Rongyan slightly tightened his grip.

"Although I’ve only ever lived for indulgence, with the country gone and the home gone, some things can be seen clearly! Yan aims to unify the world... with goals clear and precise, its powerful strides will only be steadier! Such is also the case for Zhou now! Unifying the world seems an unstoppable trend; under such circumstances, how difficult it is for Wei to restore! Even if restoration were possible... it would merely be another using Wei as a blade in hand!"

The King of Xihuai’s eyes held not strong resentment, only saying, "I only pray that one day, the Empress of Zhou can destroy Yan, which would be revenge for my Wei!"

A gentleman is to be regarded with new eyes after three days.

Xiao Rongyan couldn’t believe these words came from the mouth of the King of Xihuai: "These words... were thought of by the prince himself?"

The King of Xihuai smiled, as if saying ’you know me well’ as he said, "These were the words of my nephew’s teacher, Liu Wanyuan, who advised me before leaving... to not consider the assassination of utmost priority, but that survival is most critical regardless! It also provides an account to my little nephew."

"Minister Liu is a wise man!" Xiao Rongyan said sincerely.

"Indeed!" The King of Xihuai exhaled a long breath, with a hint of bitterness in his voice, "But to come back to it, my nephew is so young yet harbors such ambitious restoration... much stronger than myself!"

Xiao Rongyan looked at the King of Xihuai, who showed him unwavering trust and sincerity, and said in a low voice, "Take care of your injuries! These days... I’ll have Yue Shi look after you personally. Should I be able to persuade the Ninth Prince to release you, I’ll arrange for your departure!"

The King of Xihuai nodded, deeply touched: "Even if release doesn’t come, having a brother like you in this life... I’ve no regrets!"

Mrs. Dong, after consulting with Second Madam Mrs. Liu, Third Madam Mrs. Li, Fourth Madam Mrs. Wang, and Fifth Madam Mrs. Qi, set the date for the Eldest Princess’s funeral on the nineteenth, one day before Bai Qingyan’s coronation ceremony, to fulfill the Eldest Princess’s wish and symbolize the complete turning of the page on the Jin Dynasty.

Late at night, Bai Qingyan asked Bai Jinxiu to take Brother Wang for some rest, as after many months apart, Brother Wang clung fervently to Bai Jinxiu now.
