Chapter 1182 Attention
Soon, the Lantern Festival was served…
Bai Qingyan looked at the plump white Yuanxiao in the bowl, helped Shen Qingzhu stand up, smiled and said to the soldiers: “Today is the Lantern Festival, we are celebrating outside, the whole army eats Yuanxiao together, and after eating Yuanxiao, we will go to see the lanterns. Of course… the lanterns made temporarily in Yechengguan are not as good as the lanterns carefully prepared for more than a month in various cities in our Great Zhou! But… when the world is peaceful, we will see the most beautiful lanterns on the fifteenth day of every year. I firmly believe… that our Great Zhou soldiers will sacrifice their lives to fight for peace for the people and rule the world for the people! This day will definitely not be too far away! Bai Qingyan, on behalf of the people of the Great Zhou… thank you all!”
After saying that, Bai Qingyan bowed to the soldiers in the wounded camp.
The soldiers straightened their backs and kowtowed in the direction of Bai Qingyan.
Xiao Rongyan looked at the wounded soldiers in the Great Zhou Injured Barracks with red eyes, and once again couldn’t help but sigh at Bai Qingyan’s ability to inspire people.
After Bai Qingyan sat down, the soldiers began to eat Yuanxiao.
The big tent was very lively. The soldiers, who used to eat one Yuanxiao in one mouthful, scooped the glutinous rice balls with a spoon and took small bites one by one, hoping that they could eat the only Yuanxiao with a copper coin in the whole military camp.
Xiao Rongyan also got a bowl of Yuanxiao, but he was slow to pick up the spoon.
Bai Jinzhao stared at Xiao Rongyan intently, very curious about how the Ninth Prince of Dayan would eat with a mask on…
Unexpectedly, Xiao Rongyan saw Bai Jinzhao staring at him, so he looked towards Bai Jinzhao and saw Bai Jinzhao’s bright black eyes looking at the Yuanxiao in front of him. He thought of Bai Jinzhi, and smiled and asked someone to bring his bowl of Yuanxiao to Bai Jinzhao, saying that he didn’t like sweets.
Bai Jinzhao knew that she was staring at the Ninth Prince, and he might have misunderstood her and thought that she was thinking about his Yuanxiao. Now that he had given her Yuanxiao, she felt embarrassed not to eat it, so she scooped one with a spoon and put it in her mouth, taking a bite…
“Huh?!” Bai Jinzhao spat out the copper coin in the Yuanxiao, opened his eyes wide, and hurriedly showed it to Bai Jinhua, “Copper coin! I ate a copper coin!”
“Oh! Fifth sister got the copper coins. It seems that Fifth sister will be the luckiest person in our Bai family army this year!” Bai Jinhua smiled.
Bai Jinzhao, in high spirits, suddenly looked towards the Ninth Prince of Yan. This bowl of Yuanxiao was sent to her by the Ninth Prince. So… was this her blessing or the blessing of the Ninth Prince of Great Yan?
“This bowl of Yuanxiao was sent by the Ninth Prince of Dayan. This blessing… should belong to the Ninth Prince of Dayan!” Bai Jinzhao stood up and walked in front of Xiao Rongyan, handing the copper coin in his hand to Xiao Rongyan, “Ninth Prince, this is yours!”
“Since it was eaten by the Fifth Miss, it must be her blessing!” Xiao Rongyan glanced at Bai Qingyan and said, “I am already the most blessed person in the world. I will leave this blessing to the Fifth Miss. I hope she will be safe on the battlefield…”
With Bai Qingyan, they also have a child, and their ambition to unify the world is gradually advancing. Isn’t he the most blessed person in the world?
Bai Qingyan understood, lowered his eyes and smiled slightly.
Bai Jinzhao felt that the Ninth Prince of Dayan was quite easy-going, unlike what was rumored, so he happily accepted the copper coins and bowed to Xiao Rongyan: “Then… Bai Jinzhao would like to thank the Ninth Prince here!”
After saying that, Bai Jinzhao happily returned to his seat with the copper coin and handed it to Bai Jinse: “Xiaoqi, this year’s blessing is given to you by your fifth sister! You must wear it well… This copper coin can keep you safe on the battlefield!”
Bai Jinse took the copper coin and bowed to Bai Jinzhao with a smile: “Xiaoqi thanks Fifth Sister.”
When the soldiers saw that the copper coin was finally given to the youngest general of the Bai family, they all congratulated him and said that Bai Jinse would definitely be able to make great contributions and kill more enemy soldiers on this battlefield.
After eating Yuanxiao in a lively atmosphere, Bai Qingyan brought the Bai family members and the generals of Da Zhou to distribute Yuanxiao to the people of Yechengguan.
The people of Yechengguan were afraid that the Great Zhou would massacre the people in the city like they did when the Western Liang army invaded the city of Great Zhou. They had been hiding in the cellars of their homes for several days. Suddenly, they heard from outside that the Emperor of Great Zhou and his generals were distributing dumplings to the people of Yechengguan and had no intention of massacring the city.
There were some starving people who looked at their children who were already starving to death and told their wives to look after the children. He said he would go and try first. If Da Zhou really didn’t kill people and gave them food, he would come back to call his wives and children. If he never came back, they must not leave the cellar.
Amid the low cries of children, the man walked out of the cellar and saw neighbors pulling their children and running towards the city wall with bowls in hand, saying that Da Zhou really gave them food and would not kill people.
The man didn’t care about anything else. He turned back, called out his wife and children, and ran towards the city wall with the bowl in his hand.
From afar, the people of Xiliang saw Bai Qingyan, wearing a fox fur cloak, standing under the colorful swaying lanterns on the city wall, with a gentle smile on his face, serving Yuanxiao to the people of Xiliang who were queuing up.
Xiao Rongyan stood on the city wall, looking at Bai Qingyan, who had a beautiful face. Amid the noisy voices of thanks and children’s cries, she blended into the crowd and became the most eye-catching one, yet she always appeared calm and extraordinary.
He is clearly a famous god of war, but he keeps his extremely imposing aura inward. The smile between his brows when he bends down to touch the child makes his facial features appear even softer and warmer, and he is indescribably beautiful and stunning under the colorful lights.
Hot Yuanxiao were delivered continuously. Seeing that many people from Xiliang had come, they all ate with steaming bowls in their hands, and then lined up for more after they finished eating.
Bai Qingyan handed the spoon for Yuanxiao to Bai Qingqi, held up the hem of his clothes, and walked towards the city wall.
The people of Xiliang followed the Emperor of Great Zhou with their eyes. When they saw him walking up the city wall, their expressions were tense. Some were afraid that this Lantern Festival would be their last meal and that the Emperor would order them to be beheaded as soon as he climbed the city wall. Others were attracted by Bai Qingyan’s stunning face that could not be looked at directly and could not help but look up at him.
She stood on the city wall, looking at the people of Xiliang who were looking up at her, and said, “Everyone, I am the Great Zhou Emperor Bai Qingyan. I know you have many doubts in your hearts, and many people have not even come yet, fearing that the Great Zhou soldiers have tricked you here just to massacre you…”
“Although there is a feud between Da Zhou and Xiliang, and Xiliang soldiers once invaded Da Zhou… massacred the city and killed the people of our Da Zhou, but… this has nothing to do with the people of the two countries! The defenseless people are the ones who suffer the most in this world. When a country prospers, the people suffer; when a country perishes… the people also suffer! So my Bai family ancestor often wondered how to make this world free of wars and the tragic situation of people being separated from their wives and children and having no one left!”
