Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 880

Chapter 880: Revised: Chapter 877: The New Law

The Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Astronomical Bureau reached an agreement within half an hour, and Bai Qingyan’s ascension ceremony was set for June 20. They immediately dispatched envoys to various nations, inviting their envoys to attend the ceremony.

Although "various nations" was mentioned, it really meant notifying the Yan Kingdom, Xiliang, and the Rong.

With the date of ascension set, Bai Qingyan took advantage of a break while the ministers were having a meal, walked out of the hall, and called for the Bai family guards to ask if Bai Jinxiu had sent any news back and if they had caught up with King Liang... and rescued the Eldest Princess.

The Bai family guards shook their heads, stating that Bai Jinxiu had led his troops towards Luohong City, but they had yet to receive any news. freēwēbnovel.com

Bai Qingyan was silent for a moment before instructing the Bai family guards to send a message back to Shuoyang to report their safety...

"Also, inform the ladies of the Bai family that my ascension ceremony is set for June 20, and there’s no need for them to rush to Dadu City. Later, Bai Qingjue will lead the Bai family army back to Shuoyang, and he will personally escort the Bai family ladies to Dadu City."

"Young Lady!" The Bai family guards looked at Bai Qingyan in disbelief. Was the seventh young master still alive?!

Seeing the expression of the Bai family guards, Bai Qingyan’s eyes welled up, and she smiled and nodded, "Go on! Deliver the message! Let them know that the seventh young master is still alive!"

The Bai family was no longer in a precarious situation. Bai Qingyan and her family had fought their way to this point, standing where they were today, so that her brothers and the Bai family army could return with honor!

Liu Hong and Yang Wuce had already taken people to announce the decree to the noble families in Dadu City, informing them that the ascension ceremony of the Empress of Zhou was set for June 20.

Xie Yuchang and Fu Ruoxi were leading troops to maintain order within Dadu City.

Due to King Liang’s rebellion, the once desolate Dadu City was finally starting to regain its former liveliness after two months.

With the shift in imperial power, the Jin Kingdom gave way to the Zhou Dynasty.

The next morning, the sun rose high, enveloping Dadu City in golden sunlight...

The citizens who had been evacuated in time by Bai Jinxiu heard the news and began returning with their families.

Several notices were posted on the city walls and gates of Dadu City, stating that starting today, they were citizens of the Zhou Kingdom. The Emperor who had planned to use a thousand boys and girls to refine Immortal Pills had been overthrown by the Princess of Zhen!

As for the children who had been forcefully conscripted by King Liang and sent to the Nine Heavy Platform, the Princess of Zhen had dispatched soldiers to bring all the children back. The families whose children had been taken were instructed to go to the Jing Zhaoyin’s residence to reclaim their children.

Some parents, seeing this message, ran towards the Jing Zhaoyin’s residence with tears streaming down their faces, some even losing their shoes in their haste, hoping to reunite with their beloved children as soon as possible.

Merchants also began removing boards from their doors, reopening for business under the morning sun.

Meanwhile, the families of officials in Dadu City sent people to the Imperial Palace to gather information.

The previous day, Liu Hong and Yang Wuce had gone to each noble household to announce the decree, informing them that Bai Qingyan was going to ascend the throne, greatly startling everyone. Families anxiously awaited the return of their officials to inquire about the situation.

However, people from the palace came to collect the officials’ garments, saying that they needed to handle the backlog of political affairs in the palace.

At this moment, the news of Bai Qingyan and Bai Jinxiu’s safe capture of Dadu City had already reached the Bai Mansion. A guard who had been accompanying Bai Jinxiu vividly recounted the heroic deeds of Bai Qingyan and Bai Jinxiu during the chaotic times in Dadu City to the ladies of the Bai family.

Just as the ladies and the fifth and sixth young mistresses of the Bai family heaved a sigh of relief, Mrs. Dong asked the guard who had brought the news, "Since King Liang has fled, and Dadu City is without a ruler... do you know whom the young mistresses plan to support as the new emperor?"

She had a vague guess in her mind. Since King Liang had already killed the Emperor and the Crown Prince had lost face in front of the entire world, if Kid truly aspired to the throne, now would be the perfect time for her to seize that position.

Just as Mrs. Dong finished speaking, another guard from the Bai family came in with news from Dadu City.

"Please come in!" Mrs. Dong tightly gripped the teacup in her hand.

Shortly after, the guard came in, knelt on one knee, and respectfully reported to the ladies of the Bai family, "The eldest young lady has sent me to inform the ladies that her ascension ceremony is set for June 20."

Ascension?!

Other than Mrs. Dong, the few Bai family ladies in the main hall were all in shock.

"Sister-in-law?" The fifth lady Mrs. Qi widened her eyes at Mrs. Dong, "This..."

Before the fifth lady could finish her sentence, the guard who brought the news continued, "The eldest young lady requests the ladies not to rush to Dadu City. The seventh young master will lead the Bai family army back to Shuoyang, and he will personally escort the Bai family ladies to Dadu City!"
