She nodded to Qin Shangzhi: "Thank you for your support, Mr. Qin. Take care!"

Qin Shangzhi performed a long bow until he heard the sound of the wheels rolling away on the ground. Only then did he straighten up, inwardly wishing Bai Qingyan well.

Bai Qingyan fulfilled her promise, not only gaining a place in the royal court but standing tall within it, becoming the Emperor of Zhou. However, Qin Shangzhi, in this lifetime... ultimately walked the same old path, loyal to the deposed Crown Prince of Jin Dynasty.

When Bai Qingyan arrived in Pingyang City, the first snowfall there greeted her.

The border people have always held deep affection for the Bai family’s army and its members. Learning of Bai Qingyan’s arrival, many ventured out into the snow to welcome her carriage.

Lately, the Elephant Army frequently appeared at the border. For the people of Pingyang City, who had never seen such gigantic animals as elephants, there was naturally a feeling of fear.

In the mountains outside Pingyang City, where the two countries meet, there are many hunters who suffered losses. Some temporary shelters built by Zhou citizens during hunts were trampled by elephants.

Rumors spread among the people, making elephants sound fierce as mythical beasts, unstoppable, stirring unrest among them.

Rich and powerful people fled with their families when the Elephant Army reached the border, even those officials meant to reassure them moved their assets and families out early, leaving the citizens feeling abandoned.

They thought if a war started, they would be the first to be deserted by Zhou.

Some went as far as to curse Bai Qingyan, believing her heart changed after becoming Emperor, lacking the hard bone of old King Bai Weiting and the generals of the Bai family who swore to protect them.

They hesitated whether to leave Pingyang City, knowing leaving would turn them into refugees amid winter, possibly dying from hunger or cold, so they clung to the slender hope of peace, staying put.

The border citizens, unlike those in Dadu City, couldn’t hear even a whisper of court winds at Dadu; they had to guess for themselves, feeling scarier the more they speculated, convinced of their worthlessness and abandonment by the court.

Later, Lord of Gaoyi Bai Jinzhi and Shen Kunyang brought the Bai family’s army to Pingyang City first, providing some reassurance, making them realize the court hasn’t abandoned them!

The court sent the bravest Bai family’s army known in the Zhou Kingdom, personally led by Lord of Gaoyi who vanquished Daliang!

On that day, citizens cried while welcoming them on the streets; they understood... as long as the Bai family’s army and generals were there, they’d fight to protect the border citizens!

Now, the Emperor of Zhou was to come personally, an Emperor of Zhou! Amidst wealthy families and officials fleeing, their Emperor came to stand with the border citizens, uplifting them!

Their Majesty, once known as the God of Slaughter. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Bai Qingyan’s arrival made the citizens feel invigorated as if drinking invigorating tonic!

Even amid heavy snow, they braved it to greet the Emperor protecting them.
