The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 961: the spine
Chapter 961 Backbone
Bai Qingyan couldn’t hide his joy, and shouted again: “And Shen Qingzhu and Xiao Ruojiang.”
The last trace of the sky’s blood-red glow was completely covered by the stars in the night, and the entire Dadu Imperial Palace was already ablaze with lights. One after another, magnificent double-eaved palaces stood solemnly in the dazzling lights, and the magnificent and solemn scene from afar was shocking.
Shen Kunyang, Gu Wenchang and Wei Zhaonian were fine, as they had followed King Zhenguo into the palace in their early years. However, Cheng Yuanzhi and Shen Liangyu had seen the palace countless times from outside, and this was their first time entering the palace, so they couldn’t help but find everything strange.
Cheng Yuanzhi felt that the imperial palace was truly magnificent. Even on the stairs leading to the white jade steps, there were half-human-high bronze crane lamps every five steps, which illuminated the spotless jade steps with a golden glow.
Cheng Yuanzhi looked left and right, and just when he reached the bottom of the high steps of the hall, he saw Bai Qingyan standing at the end of the steps with his hands behind his back.
Bai Qingyan had changed into his usual training clothes and had been waiting here for a long time for several generals of the Bai family army. As soon as he saw them, his brows and smiles relaxed.
“Little General Bai!” Cheng Yuanzhi could not hide his excitement. He pointed his finger at Bai Qingyan who was on the high level and shouted in a rough voice, which attracted the attention of the imperial guards guarding on both sides of the high level.
Bai Qingyan ascended the throne today. Except for Shen Kunyang, the other four generals were outside the city to guard against the armies of several vassal kings who had not entered the city. However, their little Bai Shuai overthrew the emperor of Jin and ascended the throne… How could they not be excited?
When they were in Southern Xinjiang, Bai Qingyan clearly told several generals of the Bai Family Army… that they should raise private soldiers to preserve the Bai Family Army and also for the future… if they encountered a tyrant, they should rebel against the king and protect the people.
After the Bai family encountered difficulties, they once watched the people grow up… The brave pioneer in bright clothes and fierce horses, the sharp and capable Xiao Bai Shuai, took on the burden of the Bai family army and turned into a calm, restrained and resolute person. Even in difficult times, he never forgot his ambitions, the original intention of establishing the Bai family army, and the original intention of the Bai family, and he was full of ambition and determination.
And now, their little Bai Shuai has done it. She rebelled against the emperor of Jin, who had made the people live in misery in his pursuit of immortality, and sat on the throne. She avenged the Bai family’s army, avenged the Bai family, and even founded the Great Zhou Kingdom.
No one could be happier than the generals of the Bai family army who watched Bai Qingyan grow up.
“Old Cheng!” Gu Wenchang quickly pressed down Cheng Yuanzhi’s hand that was pointing at Bai Qingyan, indicating that there were imperial guards nearby. “Little Marshal Bai is now His Majesty. This is in the Imperial Palace… You should be more polite! Salute and call His Majesty properly!”
As soon as Gu Wenchang finished speaking, he saw Bai Jinxiu pushing Bai Qingyun, and Bai Jinzhao and Bai Jinhua, both in military uniforms, standing beside Bai Qingyan.
They looked at the second girl who had fought with them… and saw Bai Qingyun who had escaped death, their eyes became hot, as if the scene of the bloody battle with them, the descendants of the Bai family, was still before their eyes. In the blink of an eye, they had all grown up!
Even the fifth and sixth girls, who had two small buns tied on their heads and were held in the arms of their nannies before they went to war, were now wearing armor and standing at the end of the high steps in a heroic manner. The seventh girl of the Bai family, standing next to the young Bai Shuai, although she was young, she already had the demeanor of the young Bai Shuai, and she would definitely be a fierce general of the Bai family army in the future.
After the elders of the Bai family died in battle, the descendants of the Bai family, led by Xiao Baishuai, supported the backbone of the Bai family army.
At that moment, tears welled up in Gu Wenchang’s eyes, and he even felt like he was getting old.
Obviously… even if he went into battle at this moment, he could still defeat a hundred alone, but looking at Bai Qingyan, looking at Bai Jinxiu… looking at Bai Qingyun, looking at Bai Jinzhao, Bai Jinhua and Bai Jinse, as well as Bai Qingjue beside him, Gu Wenchang actually felt that he was old.
Fortunately… God has eyes and left someone for the Bai family!
“Uncle Shen, Uncle Gu, General Wei, General Shen, General Cheng… Let’s go, our eldest sister is still waiting for us.” Bai Qingjue said, leading the way.
Cheng Yuanzhi, who followed Bai Qingjue to the higher level, did not see Gu Wenchang beside him. He knew that Gu Wenchang had difficulty walking, so he was about to help him up. When he turned around, he saw Gu Wenchang lowering his head and wiping his tears with his sleeves. He shouted in disbelief: “Old Gu, why are you crying?”
Gu Wenchang: “…”
Gu Wenchang raised his head and glared at Cheng Yuanzhi, saying in a bad tone: “What are you crying for! My eyes are squinting with sand!”
“That’s what I told you! You’re a big man, but you just can’t walk as fast as us because your legs are weak! I look down on you if you cry!” Cheng Yuanzhi walked down the stairs, “I’ll help you!”
“Even if my legs are not good, I can still kick twenty of you away!” Gu Wenchang said, and walked towards the higher steps.
“You are just bragging!” Cheng Yuanzhi hit his chest with his fist, walked down a few steps, and held Gu Wenchang with his hand. “I am so big that you may not be able to kick me away when your legs are good. Now you want to kick me away twenty times, and you are not afraid of the wind blowing your tongue off.”
Wei Zhaonian, who had taken off his military uniform and changed into a frosty-colored robe, lowered his eyes and smiled softly, looking at Cheng Yuanzhi who was supporting Gu Wenchang in the yellow lights swaying in the wind, then turned back to look at Bai Qingyan who was on the high steps, his heart filled with emotion.
Bai Qingjue, who was walking in the front, looked back at the laughing and noisy Gu Wenchang and Cheng Yuanzhi. The night wind brought with it a trace of heat left over from the daytime, blowing Bai Qingjue’s hair and hairband fluttering, lingering around his eyes that were filled with a gentle smile. He hadn’t seen such a general of the Bai family for a long time… a long time.
Even when he was in southern Xinjiang, he had never… seen these generals gathered together and laughing so happily.
Bai Jinhua, Bai Jinzhao and Bai Jinse had never followed these generals into battle. They had only seen them from afar before the battles, or had heard of their names from their elders… brothers and sisters.
Especially Bai Jinse, she had never led troops, or even entered a military camp. Looking at those generals… besides curiosity, she felt more admiration!
The battle between the Bai family army and the Southern Xinjiang generals during the Xuanjia period was so brutal that now only these five generals with countless meritorious services are left in the Bai family army.
Several generals walked up the steps and looked up at the brightly lit end. They saw Bai Qingyan standing in the magnificent and solemn double-eaved palace. They felt that Bai Qingyan’s aura was not suppressed by this solemn palace at all, and his restrained and powerful majesty was revealed in his calm expression.
“Qingzhu and Xiao Ruojiang haven’t come yet?” Bai Qingyan asked Wei Zhong.
Wei Zhong stepped forward and said respectfully to Bai Qing: “Miss Shen and your Majesty’s foster brother have sent someone to report back. They will arrive a little later.”
Seeing that several generals were about to come up, Bai Qingyan nodded and walked down the steps impatiently to greet them. Shen Kunyang and several generals knelt on one knee on the steps to salute.
Third update! Almost couldn’t catch up with the update…TT
