Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1143

Capítulo 1143: Chapter 1137: Characters

The Empress Dowager of Yan saw this and swept her sleeves as she left.

Although she felt reassured, knowing that A Yan would not leave Yan Kingdom and their mother and son, she, as A Yan’s sister-in-law, couldn’t help but feel heartbroken on A Yan’s behalf for falling for such a cold-blooded woman as Bai Qingyan, fearing that A Yan might be hurt by Bai Qingyan in the future.

Since ancient times, love is the most helpless thing for people.

She didn’t know whether she should tell A Yan about this, so that he could guard against Bai Qingyan.

Feng Yao saw the Empress Dowager of Yan stepping over the threshold of the main hall and quickly bowed to her.

Seeing Feng Yao, who was sent here by Murong Yan, the Empress Dowager of Yan felt even more aggrieved for Murong Yan and vented her anger on Feng Yao: “The Ninth Prince is leading the army for the country, and Eunuch Feng, with your martial skills, instead of guarding him, you are here currying favor with the Emperor of Zhou. How come… Is it that you intend to follow the Emperor of Zhou in the future?”

This was the first time the Empress Dowager of Yan had lost her temper with Feng Yao, yet Feng Yao still maintained his composed demeanor: “The Ninth Prince is surely safe with Yue Shi guarding him! This old servant is already old and incapable. I brazenly asked the Ninth Prince for a task, and that’s why he sent me here as a messenger between the two armies. I have never intended to serve the Emperor of Zhou.”

The Empress Dowager of Yan firmly grasped Ah Nu’s hand, let out a cold hum, and left in a huff, but inside she felt even more guilt towards Murong Yan.

Previously, she even doubted A Yan’s loyalty to Yan Kingdom and Ah Li, not realizing… A Yan is the most pitiful one caught in the middle. She must ensure that this Emperor of Zhou doesn’t exploit A Yan.

After sending off the Empress Dowager of Yan, Bai Qingyan also stepped out of the main hall, hoping her words would allow the Empress Dowager of Yan to dispel her doubts about Murong Yan, making it smoother for Murong Li to bring up the merging of the two kingdoms in the future.

“Your Majesty…” After bowing to Bai Qingyan, Feng Yao said, “This time, the Empress Dowager coming to Pingdu City to seek Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince probably doesn’t know. If there’s anything that offended Your Majesty, please forgive us!”

“No offense taken, Eunuch Feng. The army is about to set out; let’s discuss as we walk…” Bai Qingyan said.

“Please lead the way, Your Majesty. I’ll follow behind.” Feng Yao was very humble towards Bai Qingyan, following behind as he began, “Is Your Majesty interested in the jade cicada?”

“Indeed, I want to ask Eunuch Feng, the jade cicada that Empress Ji once gave to A Yan, was it something he carried since childhood, or was it presented to Empress Ji at a later time?” Bai Qingyan glanced sideways, seeing Feng Yao still slightly bent over, in a respectful manner.

“In response to Your Majesty, when I served Empress Ji, she was already in the palace, and she carried the jade cicada with her. I once heard Empress Ji say this jade cicada was a key for her to return home, a peace talisman given by her mother, and she even mentioned… If it weren’t for this jade cicada saving her life, there would have been no way she could enter the palace! Later… amidst turmoil in the palace, Empress Ji then placed this jade cicada on the Ninth Prince.” Feng Yao answered truthfully.

Given by Empress Ji’s mother—it even saved Empress Ji’s life…

Bai Qingyan subtly grasped the pouch containing the jade cicada—could it be that Empress Ji had once used this jade cicada to travel through time?
