Two days later, the news of Ouyang Mingxian’s return was heard all over the capital. The illustrious Qin Wang came back from quelling the bandits with a beauty from the Bai family who had saved his life. The Emperor was greatly pleased, and so he bestowed various rewards to Bai Hua, the savior of his favorite son.
There was also a rumor that the Emperor had intended to give a small, insignificant title to Bai Hua to include her in the royal family, but Empress Dowager Wei stopped him. Bai Hua remained the third miss of the Bai family just like before. The only change was the reputation she had gained for her medical achievement, as well as her black level magic, which was surprisingly progress. Bai Yu only smiled as Xiao Xi reported to her the new rumor that had completely overtaken the ones about her.
