The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 83: clear and direct
Chapter 83 Clearly
Ji Tingyu!
Her scalp tightened and she grabbed Chuntao’s hand, raised her head to look at the family of Marquis Dingyong who were still saluting, and took advantage of everyone’s unpreparedness to stand up with her numb legs and almost fell down.
Bai Jintong quickly supported Bai Qingyan, not daring to scream out in surprise, and asked in a low voice: “Elder sister?”
She held Chuntao’s hand tightly: “Let’s go!”
Chuntao lowered her head and supported Bai Qingyan, then quietly withdrew from the crowd.
Bai Jintong sensed something was wrong. She turned her head and whispered to Bai Jinxiu, “Second sister! Please take care of the younger sisters! I’ll go see my eldest sister!”
Bai Jinxiu was also worried that Bai Qingyan couldn’t hold on, so she nodded repeatedly. Bai Jintong hurriedly got up and quietly chased after Bai Qingyan.
Bai Qingyan, whose legs were numb, staggered down the stairs and saw Lu Ping coming up to her with a serious face. He was about to say something to Bai Qingyan, but when he saw Bai Jintong following closely, he politely clasped his fists and saluted: “Eldest Miss, Third Miss!”
“Where are the people?” Her heart was in turmoil and her voice trembled unconsciously. She was afraid that the news Ji Tingyu would bring back was that something had happened to Shen Qingzhu, but she was also hoping that Ji Tingyu could tell her that there were still survivors of the Bai family on the battlefield in southern Xinjiang.
“In the backyard, Yin Shuang found it, and Doctor Hong is trying to stop the bleeding.” Lupin said.
“Let’s go…” Bai Qingyan’s feet were so fast that he wished he could grow wings and fly over.
Even though she was mentally prepared, she was still frightened when she heard Ji Tingyu groaning in pain while biting the wooden board in the backyard.
Pushing open the door, Doctor Hong was pressing a blade that had been burned by fire on Ji Tingyu’s severed limb to stop the bleeding. Ji Tingyu held the corner of the table with one hand and bit the wooden board tightly. His face was red and veins all over his body were bulging. Beads of sweat and blood kept rolling down.
“It’s okay! It’s okay! It’s okay…” Doctor Hong moved the blade away and wiped the sweat with a towel with his bloody hand.
The smell of burning flesh is terrifying.
If one had not experienced the battlefield and was already familiar with such scenes, not to mention the girls in the boudoir, even the boys would probably feel weak in the knees.
Bai Jintong opened his eyes wide, not understanding what Ji Tingyu had been doing and how he… lost an arm!
“Miss!” Ji Tingyu’s eyes were bloodshot, his whole body was soaked with blood, and his clothes were tattered because he hadn’t had time to change. He knelt on one knee, as if he was unstable because he had lost an arm, and choked up, “Miss Shen took Wei Gao and me to ride fast on horses to the southern border. On the way, we met Yue Zhizhou, a personal guard of the Third Young Master. General Yue asked me to return the three bamboo slips of the march record, but… Tingyu failed to live up to your trust. He hid and struggled all the way back, but only saved one! Please punish me, Miss!”
After saying this, Ji Tingyu hurriedly untied the blood-soaked bag behind him, which contained a tightly wrapped bamboo slip.
Her eyes were red, and she helped Ji Tingyu up and said seriously: “As long as you are alive!”
Bai Jintong suddenly realized that her elder sister had already sent people to southern Xinjiang? !
Bai Jintong took the bamboo slips from Ji Tingyu’s hand, unfolded them and read them: “On the twelfth day of the twelfth month of the fifteenth year of Xuanjia, General Bai Qingming, who was swift and brave, destroyed a small group of cavalrymen from Xiliang and returned to the camp with a thousand soldiers to provide assistance. The camp was flattened, and General Jiyong rescued ten remaining soldiers… The remaining soldiers said that one day ago, Prince Xin saw the 50,000-strong army of Southern Yan coming, so he abandoned the camp and fled with 3,000 men. General Bai Qingyu, who was guarding the camp, sent 500 soldiers to evacuate the people in the rear, and led 1,500 soldiers to fight. General Jifeng died and his body was burned.”
“On the thirteenth day of the twelfth lunar month in the fifteenth year of Xuanjia, General Jiyong defended Feng County to the death, and the Southern Yan army attacked the city. General Jiyong Bai Qingming said that millions of people depended on the later lord, and the Bai family army would fight to the death and would not retreat until there was only one person left!”
Bai Jintong glanced at Bai Qingyan, who was supporting Ji Tingyu with a sullen face, and continued with red eyes: “In order to disrupt the morale of the Great Jin army, the commander of the Southern Yan and Western Liang coalition forces, Yun Poxing, hung the body of the deputy commander Bai Qishan in front of the carriage! The heads of the seventeen sons of the Bai family were cut off…”
When Bai Jintong saw the following text, his eyes were bloodshot, tears burst out, a surge of blood rushed to his head, his face suddenly turned pale, his chest felt like it was pierced by a sword, he couldn’t breathe, and murderous aura was overwhelming.
Bai Qingyan snatched the bamboo slips and gritted his teeth to read the writing on them. The handwriting was sloppy…
To disrupt the morale of the Jin army, the commander of the Xiliang and Nanyan coalition forces, Yun Poxing, hung the body of the deputy commander, Bai Qishan, in front of the cart, cut off the heads of the 17 sons of the Bai family, and ripped open their stomachs to humiliate them. The stomachs of the 17 sons of the Bai family had no food, only tree roots and soil. Yun Poxing was shocked! The Bai family army was aroused with murderous intent and fought bravely! I am ashamed of the bloodiness of a 10-year-old boy. Even though I am a scholar, I dare to throw away my pen and pick up my sword! Wrapped in my horsehide… Go!
Her heart felt as if it was pierced by thousands of awls. A fishy and sweet taste rushed from her chest to her throat. The sharp and deadly pain made her whole body tremble and she almost fell to the ground.
“Miss!” Chuntao hurriedly supported Bai Qingyan, tears streaming down her face.
Even though she had seen Xiao Shiqi’s miserable condition, she had not expected… that Xiao Shiqi’s death would be so miserable!
She closed her bloodshot eyes and bit her tongue to wake herself up. She couldn’t indulge in this endless grief at this moment. The pain and tragedy of the Bai family had to be seen by the world! She wanted to tear the face of Prince Xin, the emperor’s legitimate son… for the world to see! She used the people’s resentment and anger to force the emperor who was high above… to kill Prince Xin!
Bai Qingyan will avenge the Bai family with her life!
At this time, after Cui Shiyan and Mr. Guan Yongchong came to pay homage, the dignitaries in the capital city had already arrived, and the timing was perfect.
She opened her scarlet eyes and stared at the miserable Ji Tingyu with her burning gaze: “Ji Tingyu, I have something for you to do! Can you… hold on?!”
“The eldest lady has ordered! Ji Tingyu will not refuse even if it means death!” Ji Tingyu clenched his teeth.
“Chun Tao, go get the five bamboo books that Wu Zhe sent back from my room!”
“Yes!” Chuntao went out and ran quickly.
When she saw Chuntao leaving, she gritted her teeth and solemnly instructed Ji Tingyu: “I want you to bring the six bamboo slips through the main gate of our mansion! Right in the mourning hall… present the bamboo slips with your miserable body!”
“You went to southern Xinjiang on my behalf before the New Year to deliver winter clothes to my grandfather, father, uncle and brothers! At Chongluanling, we met Fang Yan, the commander of the Tiger Battalion of the Bai family army, who was being hunted by assassins. All the guards who went to southern Xinjiang with you died before you saved General Fang Yan. General Fang Yan said that Liu Huanzhang had rebelled and colluded with Southern Yan and Prince Xin. In order to gain military merit, Prince Xin forced my grandfather to fight and killed hundreds of thousands of soldiers. The front line was defeated, and General Bai Qingyu risked his life to resist while evacuating the people. Prince Xin abandoned the people and forcibly took away most of the troops to protect him and fled! You were hunted all the way, hiding and hiding, and fought hard to protect these six bamboo slips back. I only ask God to give justice to the spirits of the Bai family!”
Bai Qing’s words were clear and logical, and nine out of ten of them were true and one out of ten were false. He had already clearly explained the origins of the six bamboo slips.
