The Eldest Princess walked out, escorted by her daughters-in-law, stunned by the sight of flying sky lanterns.
The young Fifth Miss and Sixth Miss leaned against the Eldest Princess and pointed at the sky lanterns, asking, "Grandmother, what is that?!"
"Reporting to the Eldest Princess, Fifth Miss," replied a maid in the courtyard with a smile, "those are sky lanterns released by the townspeople to pray for the Bai family army."
The Eldest Princess felt a myriad of emotions well up inside her. She choked out, "The people of Dadu have not forgotten our Bai family army..."
Bai Qingyan and her three sisters saw the Eldest Princess standing under the corridor. They paid their respects and stood with the Eldest Princess, watching the sky lanterns.
As the sky lanterns began to disperse, and just when Bai Qingyan was about to help the Eldest Princess back indoors, Lu Ping hurried in with a maid from the Chuihua gate.
