Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1072

Chapter 1072: Chapter 1066: Your Forbearance

Seeing Bai Qingyan alight from the carriage, Sal Khan approached, lowering his stance, nodded respectfully towards Bai Qingyan: "It is an honor to witness the elegance of the Empress of Zhou; it is truly a once-in-a-lifetime privilege."

Her serene eyes filled with a smile as she looked at Sal Khan, nodding slightly: "I’ve heard from the envoy of Tianfeng Kingdom that the Monarch of Tianfeng speaks elegant words, and indeed..."

Sal Khan’s smile was gentle as jade, he sidestepped to the entrance of the tent: "Empress, please..."

Bai Qingyan nodded to Sal Khan, yet did not move; her gaze instead fell upon Xiao Rongyan, who was disembarking the carriage.

Xiao Rongyan was wearing a mask today, adorned in a python robe, belted with white jade. Possibly due to the carriage, he looked even more imposing than usual, exuding an emperor’s aura.

Murong Li, the Young Emperor of Yan, followed behind Murong Yan, got off the carriage and, upon seeing Bai Qingyan from afar, his lips curled into a smile. As soon as he stepped down from the carriage, he was the first to bow towards Bai Qingyan, and along with the Regent Prince Murong Yan offered his respects: "Ninth Uncle, Ah Li was well looked after by the Empress of Zhou while in Dadu, and wishes to greet her first."

A court official of Yan, stepping down from the carriage, saw the Young Emperor of Yan’s respectful manner towards the Regent Prince, and shook his head in distress, believing Murong Li should display imperial dignity to Xiao Rongyan.

However, those loyal to the Regent Prince found this to be a habit and saw it as natural.

"Go on then..." Murong Yan spoke.

Receiving permission, Murong Li bowed again to Murong Yan, then quickly walked towards Bai Qingyan.

Seeing the scene unfold, Sal Khan’s gaze involuntarily landed on the Regent Prince of Yan, understanding in his heart... the true power without a crown in Yan was indeed this Ninth Prince.

"Eldest Young Lady, it’s Murong Li!" Bai Jinzhi said excitedly.

Following closely behind Bai Qingyan, Bai Qingyu stood with hands clasped behind his back, his gaze calm as he watched the Emperor of Yan stride briskly towards his eldest sister. His sight finally settled on Xiao Rongyan, dressed in a python robe, and his fist clenched tightly behind his back.

Their eyes met, Xiao Rongyan nodded shallowly towards Bai Qingyu.

Seeing Murong Li with his clear, gentle smile, Bai Qingyan’s lips also curled into a smile, and she took two steps forward to greet Murong Li.

Murong Li first called out to the Bai family elder sister, and the two exchanged gestures of respect.

"In Dadu City, I greatly appreciated my elder Bai sister’s guidance. Listening to Ninth Uncle, it seems our two countries have already secured an alliance, just waiting to seal it! Ah Li is very happy..."

Murong Li feigned an innocent and ignorant demeanor, but in truth, he spoke these words for Sal Khan to hear.

"An alliance between the two countries is advantageous for the citizens of both nations," Bai Qingyan said with a smile, finishing her words to Murong Li and then turned to Sal Khan, "This is the Monarch of Tianfeng Kingdom."

Murong Li and Sal Khan exchanged courtesies, and Sal Khan invited the two to enter the tent first, being a step slower himself, smiling as he nodded to Murong Yan: "I have heard of the Regent Prince of Yan’s illustrious reputation..."

"The Monarch of Tianfeng Kingdom is too kind." Murong Yan gestured for Sal Khan to proceed, "Please..."
