Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 660

Chapter 660: Chapter 657: Testing_1

If there was such an issue with the military provisions in the Northern Frontier, what about the Southern Frontier? The Bai Army’s provisions... could there be a similar problem?

"What are you thinking about?" Huang Arong gave Bai Jinzhi a push.

Bai Jinzhi shook her head and smiled at Huang Arong, saying, "Nothing, I’m just worried about my eldest sister!"

Huang Arong, hearing Bai Jinzhi’s words, quickly put down her seeds and grabbed Bai Jinzhi’s hand to comfort her. "Princess of Zhen has great fortune and will be fine! Moreover, Doctor Hong said last time that as long as the Princess passed the first three days, she would be safe! It’s been five days already. From now on, listen to your eldest sister obediently, don’t anger her, and she will live a long, healthy life!"

"It’s you who angers your old folks!" Bai Jinzhi glared at Huang Arong and withdrew her hand.

Huang Arong didn’t mind. She smiled and said, "Then I won’t anger my old folks anymore either. May both my old folks and your eldest sister live long and healthy lives!"

Bai Jinzhi chuckled softly.

Although Huang Arong brushed over the matter of the military provisions, Bai Jinzhi took it to heart and decided to discuss it with her eldest sister later for a thorough investigation.

Huang Arong knew something had happened in the Bai family, and she had come to comfort Bai Jinzhi. Not wanting to impose, she left after a short stay.

After Huang Arong departed, Bai Jinzhi went to Qinghui Courtyard.

Chun Tao had just administered medicine to Bai Qingyan and was holding a plate of honey-marinated, de-seeded hawthorns to refresh Bai Qingyan’s palate.

Seeing Bai Qingyan use a silver chopstick to pick up a piece to eat, Chun Tao softly said, "Second Young Lady went to the kitchen with Nanny Luo to prepare a blood-enriching medicinal dish for you. My lady, do you want to sleep for a while? Or is the pain too severe to sleep?"

"These past few days of recuperation have made me sleep a lot, I’m not tired..." Bai Qingyan raised her hand to rub her still-unable-to-lift arm. Just as she asked Chun Tao to fetch her a book, she heard the maids outside repeatedly calling Fourth Young Lady.

Bai Qingyan instructed, "Leave the plate of hawthorns here, let Xiao Si try some!"

Bai Qingyan also wanted to discuss with Bai Jinzhi the plan of sending her to Anping Camp to find a way to take control of the Anping Army.

Anping Camp was not far from Dengzhou. With her grandmother and uncle able to look after her, without being overprotective, it was a good place for Bai Jinzhi to gain experience. It served multiple purposes.

It wasn’t that Bai Qingyan was heartless by placing such a heavy burden on Bai Jinzhi at her young age...

Even a sharp sword must be tested to remain sharp.

Even beautiful materials must be studied to reach their potential.

Bai Jinzhi had a talent for military command. Keeping her confined by her side would only bury her potential. A sharp sword is forged through honing... Bai Qingyan believed that as long as Bai Jinzhi was willing, she could carve out her own path in Anping Camp.

Bai Jinzhi entered, calling out "Eldest Sister" as she hurried past the screen.

Chun Tao smiled and bowed to Bai Jinzhi. After a slight nod, Bai Jinzhi sat by Bai Qingyan’s bed. "Eldest Sister, Huang Arong just visited."

"Mm, I know..."
