The old nanny started crying as she spoke.
If what this old nanny said was true, it meant that the Nanrong people had been waiting there early to ambush. Just waiting for the Yan’s diplomatic mission to arrive and surround them like dumplings.
"What official position does Master Peng hold in Yan?" Bai Qingyan asked.
"In response to the Princess of Zhen, Master Peng once saved our emperor’s life and was granted the title of Central Army Commander by the emperor. This time, Master Peng personally led the troops for the marriage mission, which is a great honor for our princess." The nanny added.
Bai Qingyan’s fingers rubbed the armrest of her chair. Knowing that the nanny’s knowledge was limited, she felt it was better to ask Xiao Rongyan about why Yan detoured for the marriage mission.
Since Xiao Rongyan happened to appear at the borders of Nanrong, he must have received some information.
She glanced at the trembling and pale-faced nanny and palace maid kneeling on the ground. She didn’t think they were lying but simply knew too little. She stood up to leave.
"Princess of Zhen!" The nanny bravely kneeled closer, crying and kowtowing to Bai Qingyan, "Princess of Zhen, please let Xique and me serve our princess!"
"Just wait. After we’ve asked all the questions, you will naturally be allowed to serve your mistress." Bai Qingyan said and left the barracks with Lu Ping, ignoring the cries behind her.
