Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 389

Chapter 389: Chapter 386: Flesh and Bone_1

Then, knelt outside the Princess of Zhen’s manor gate, requesting to see her. No matter how one looked at it, this was a deliberate attempt to gain fame.

"That woman, does she have a scar on her face, named... Ji Langhua?" Bai Qingyan asked.

Steward Hao was stunned and repeatedly nodded. "Exactly! How did Miss Bai know?"

So it was her...

Bai Qingyan had guessed it might be Ji Langhua when she heard the woman say the sixth young master had shown her kindness. She hadn’t expected it to be true.

She had interacted with Ji Langhua before and knew she wasn’t the kind to speak nonsense just to gain fame.

She lowered the curtain and pondered carefully.

When the carriage stopped before the gate of the Princess of Zhen’s manor, Bai Qingyan heard the woman’s hoarse and exhausted voice, struggling to call out: "I am Ji Langhua. I request to see the Princess of Zhen. General Jiyong Bai Qingming showed me kindness. I refined an elixir with my blood that can bring the dead back to life. I beg the princess to give me a chance to save General Jiyong Bai Qingming."

The commoners, who already revered ghosts and gods, were extremely curious to hear that the woman had an elixir that could bring the dead back to life. They gathered around the Princess of Zhen’s manor gate to watch the spectacle.

A bold man shouted at Ji Langhua: "Miss, if you claim to have an elixir that can bring the dead back to life, why not show it to us to open our eyes?"

"Yeah! Empty words are not proof. The princess won’t see you this way!"

Some people saw the carriage of the Princess of Zhen and said: "It’s the Princess of Zhen’s carriage!"

Chun Tao lifted the curtain and supported Bai Qingyan as she alighted from the carriage.

Ji Langhua, dressed in plain clothes and looking disheveled, looked in Bai Qingyan’s direction.

Seeing Bai Qingyan, tall and upright, descend from the carriage, Ji Langhua, with all her strength gone, kneeled and moved two steps forward. Her clear eyes burned with intensity as she bowed to Bai Qingyan: "I am Ji Langhua. General Jiyong Bai Qingming showed me kindness. I refined an elixir with my blood that can bring the dead back to life. I beg the princess to give me a chance to save General Jiyong Bai Qingming."

Though Bai Qingyan didn’t understand Ji Langhua’s intentions, she knew that Ji Langhua was a person who repaid kindness. Even Ah Ming’s cloak was carefully treasured by her, so she wouldn’t harm the Bai family lightly.

Observing her clear-eyed gaze, she didn’t seem to be bewitched or confused.

Ji Langhua’s head hit the stone floor heavily. She lifted it again and repeated: "I am Ji Langhua. General Jiyong Bai Qingming showed me kindness. I refined an elixir with my blood that can bring the dead back to life. I beg the princess to give me a chance to save General Jiyong Bai Qingming."

Perhaps because she saw Bai Qingyan, Ji Langhua lost her strength and fell at the gate of the Princess of Zhen’s manor.

Bai Qingyan tightened her palms and ordered: "Qingzhu, have someone carry Miss Ji back to the manor and call for the doctor."

"Yes!" Shen Qingzhu took the order.

If the elixir that could bring the dead back to life was real, did the legendary elixir of immortality exist in this world?

Gao Demao’s words were unintentional, but the Emperor took them to heart.

When Lu Ninghuan returned to her manor and got off the carriage, the onlookers at the Princess of Zhen’s manor hadn’t completely dispersed.

From their scattered discussions, she learned that the woman who tried to dig up Bai Clan’s sixth son’s grave fainted at the manor gate last night and was taken back in by Bai Qingyan, who was now calling for a doctor.

Lu Ninghuan pondered briefly. Given that the girl claimed to have an elixir that could bring the dead back to life, Bai Qingyan would surely value her highly regardless of the truth.

She entered and asked the gatekeeping woman: "Where did the princess settle that girl? I know some medicine. I could take a look..."

The Bai family treated Miss Lu with great respect. The gatekeeper called another woman not on duty to respectfully lead Lu Ninghuan to Ji Langhua’s room.

Seeing that Bai Qingyan settled the girl claiming to have resurrection medicine in a guest room, Lu Ninghuan had a rough idea and treated the matter cautiously.

The woman bent over and led the way. Just as they entered the courtyard, Chun Tao saw them and informed Bai Qingyan urgently. She hurriedly greeted them: "Miss Lu."

Lu Ninghuan smiled faintly: "I heard Miss Bai sent for a doctor. Afraid Miss Bai was anxious, I decided to come even though my medical skills are limited, I can manage." _{freewebnσvel.cøm}
