The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 447: will live up to you
Chapter 447 I Will Never Let You Down
Xiao Rongyan sat upright, as if he had been enlightened, and his whole body tensed up. Just now… he was still thinking that once the world was unified, he would be able to live a relaxing life and do whatever he wanted.
But Bai Qingyan’s words were like a wake-up call, making him suddenly alert.
As long as Dayan is still in its current situation, he wants to live a relaxed life. If the world is truly unified one day, wouldn’t the court of Dayan and even the common people become lazy?
In the past few years, the entire country of Dayan was united as one, working together to recover Southern Yan.
Afterwards, the Dayan army became ambitious and wanted to… conquer the world.
Although the unification of the world seems far away, it is moving forward step by step steadily. He should indeed plan ahead for the direction of Dayan after the unification, so that he will not be caught off guard.
After the chaos and struggle for supremacy, there will be peace and order…
When the five kingdoms are unified, Queen Ji’s new policies can be implemented on the people of the five kingdoms, and the people will surely be delighted.
The power of the aristocratic families in various countries is intertwined, and Queen Ji’s new policies will inevitably be met with strong counterattacks from the aristocratic families. It is impossible to destroy them one by one. How to weigh and deal with them will be the first problem after unification.
Xiao Rongyan was greatly shocked, and felt that if one day Bai Qingyan could enter Yan to help Yan, Yan would be even more powerful.
“Yan… accept my instruction!” Xiao Rongyan said sincerely.
“What I said to Mr. Xiao today is what my grandfather once taught my father. Whenever my grandfather talked about the death of Qin II, he felt deeply sorry and discussed it with my father from time to time. Today, I just happened to tell you about it.”
“King Zhenguo is truly the pillar of the country!” Xiao Rongyan couldn’t help but sigh.
The Bai family not only has the ambition to pacify the world, but also has the heart to help the people. They are truly respectable.
At this point, Bai Qingyan bowed to Xiao Rongyan and said, “The ancestors of the Bai family once swore to eat a grain of rice from the people and protect the people for a lifetime. If one day, the Lin family of Jin State has run out of luck, the Bai family will definitely take over. If I can see this day in my lifetime, then… I will definitely compete with Mr. Xiao for the Central Plains to see who can win the throne!”
Xiao Rongyan’s heart was boiling with excitement because of Bai Qingyan’s words, just like… a chess master who meets an equally skilled opponent and can’t help but feel itchy to show off his skills.
Xiao Rongyan finally understood why Bai Qingyan told him what her grandfather had taught her.
The Bai family has truly engraved the four words “supporting the people” into their character. What Bai Qingyan hopes for… is that when the world is unified in the future, no matter it is achieved by her Bai family or by his Dayan, those in power in a country must think of a way out and stabilize this hard-won unified country, and not let the people experience the hardships of war, thinking that after all the hardships, they will fall into greater wars.
Unification… is for the sake of peace and tranquility! Anyone who intends to dominate the world must not forget this.
Xiao Rongyan looked at Bai Qingyan and wanted to agree, but if he did so, the distance between them would seem to be pulled further and they would become opposites.
Seeing that Xiao Rongyan didn’t respond for a long time, Bai Qingyan stood up and said to Xiao Rongyan, “I’ll see you off, Mr. Xiao.”
Xiao Rongyan nodded and stood up.
Upon seeing this, Yue Shi brought people forward to clean up the small table and tea sets.
“Yan brought back two small items from the State of Wei for Miss Bai Da and Miss Bai Si. I put them on the horse’s back and forgot to take them. Miss Bai Da, please move and go with Yan to get them.” Xiao Rongyan seemed to be afraid that Bai Qingyan would refuse, and added, “They are indeed small items. Miss Bai Si is lively and will definitely like them!”
Just think of it as thanking Fourth Miss Bai for taking the trouble to create opportunities for him and Bai Qingyan. Even though it can sometimes do bad things, her intention is good.
Bai Qingyan nodded and followed Xiao Rongyan to the white horse.
Xiao Rongyan took out a long whip and a brocade box from the brocade bag on the horse’s back. The long whip was fiery red… It was obviously for Bai Jinzhi.
“I’d like to thank Mr. Xiao on behalf of Xiao Si!” Bai Qingyan took the whip.
Xiao Rongyan opened the brocade box with a smile. Inside lay a hairpin made of pure and smooth jade, but the carving seemed to be of poor quality.
He took out a hairpin and said, “I got a piece of very fine jade in Wei State. This is my first time making a hairpin, so my hands are a little unfamiliar. When I become more skilled… I will carve a better one for you.”
As he spoke, Xiao Rongyan took two steps towards Bai Qingyan calmly and naturally, not giving Bai Qingyan a chance to retreat. He raised his hand to hold her shoulders and inserted the jade hairpin into Bai Qingyan’s black hair.
The gloomy and restrained aura coming from the man made Bai Qingyan’s brain go blank for a moment. He raised his head and his sight fell on Xiao Rongyan’s protruding Adam’s apple, and heard Xiao Rongyan’s voice slowly coming.
“Yan… wants to make a bet with Miss Bai.” Xiao Rongyan put on the jade hairpin and looked down at Bai Qingyan’s fair and delicate features. His gaze was deep and hot. “If Yan State finally wins the world, I hope Miss Bai will not give up… and become Yan’s wife!”
Bai Qingyan’s fingers holding the whip trembled, and he tightened them slightly without making a sound.
Seeing Bai Qingyan calm and composed, Xiao Rongyan’s ears flushed. He looked at her with more solemnity and tenderness, and said, “If the Bai family wins the world, I hope Miss Bai will not abandon me… and take me as her husband.”
As he looked into Xiao Rongyan’s eyes, his heart beat faster and faster, and his ears began to feel hot.
Xiao Rongyan’s big hand that was holding Bai Qingyan’s shoulder slid down her shoulder, just like that night, wrapping the back of her hand in his palm, and his five fingers passed through her fingers, holding her hand tightly. He seemed to intentionally lead Bai Qingyan to think of the scene of that day, wanting to complete what was not completed that night.
He lowered his head and slowly approached her. His straight nose lightly touched the tip of her nose, causing goose bumps to appear on her tense body. She took a step back as if waking up from a dream. Just as she was about to pull her hand back, Xiao Rongyan pulled her wrist hard and she staggered into his arms.
He held her slender waist, which could be held in one hand, but did not intend to let go. He just stared at her quietly.
Bai Qingyan’s heart was beating so hard that it seemed like it was going to burst out of his chest, and his hands tightly grasped Xiao Rongyan’s clothes on his chest.
Xiao Rongyan restrained his heavy breathing, hugged her tightly in his arms, lowered his head and slowly approached Bai Qingyan, his eyes moved away from Bai Qingyan’s trembling eyes and fell on her lips, his Adam’s apple rolled, and he said in a low and hoarse voice: “Bai Qingyan, if you dare to bet, I, Murong Yan… will never let you down in this life!”
Murong Yan is his real name.
When Xiao Rongyan spoke, his hot thin lips rubbed against Bai Qingyan’s lips, making her feel her breathing quick and difficult, and there seemed to be some kind of confusing throbbing, making her look forward to… Xiao Rongyan’s lips that were about to press down.
This was the first time in her past and present lives that she had such an intimate relationship with an adult man.
She didn’t dislike it. She had always known that she admired Xiao Rongyan in her heart. Since she knew Xiao Rongyan’s feelings, she had suppressed her feelings because… for her, protecting the Bai family, protecting the Bai family army, and fulfilling the ambitions of several generations of the Bai family…
