Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince

The autumn sun shines obliquely, and the shadows of the trees are swaying.

The autumn wind was chilly. Bai Zhiyuan, Xie Yunsong and their group of five had just passed Yongzhou two days ago. If they rode faster for a while, they would reach Xin'an.

Xin'an is a big city with outstanding people and beautiful scenery. It borders Dingzhou, and Shangjing is just across Dingzhou.

Bai Zhiyuan had never been here in his past or present life. On the way, he heard Cheng Beixiao say, "Xin'an is prosperous and as prosperous as Shangjing."

These words made Bai Zhiyuan even more looking forward to Xin An.

Ten days later, the five people arrived in Xin'an as they wished.

Different from the prosperity and wealth of Shangjing, Xin'an is filled with music and bright sunshine.

It was already three quarters past midnight when they entered the city. The streets were still crowded with people, and on the river, pleasure boats were lined up one after another. There were sounds of laughter and music, and the city was very lively.

When Cheng Beixiao arrived here, he could no longer walk. He just looked at the women speaking soft Wu dialect walking on the street and praised, "This is the real rich and prosperous place on earth."

Bai Zhiyuan: "I'm afraid Master Cheng doesn't want to leave."

Cheng Beixiao said awkwardly: "How come?"

Bai Zhiyuan glanced at him and stopped teasing him.

Cheng Beixiao looked around and couldn't help but said, "Yunsong, it's getting late today, why don't we stay in Xin'an for one night. I heard that the most beautiful night view of Xin'an can be seen from the cruise at night. It would be a waste if we don't experience it now that we are here."

Xie Yunsong didn't say anything, but looked at Bai Zhiyuan.

Bai Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Okay, I've never been here before, so it's okay to stay one night."

Xie Yunsong nodded slightly and said, "Okay, let's find an inn to stay in tonight."

Cheng Beixiao was overjoyed and as happy as a child.

The five of them found an inn near the river bank and stayed there to rest for a while. Bai Zhiyuan and his friends were exhausted from the journey and wanted to have a good bath tonight. After the bath, they changed their clothes.

After Bai Zhiyuan finished packing, she pushed the door and walked out. As soon as she went out, she found that the four of them had packed up and were waiting for her outside.

Cheng Beixiao said impatiently: "Ms. Bai, hurry up. Stop putting on makeup."

Bai Zhiyuan thought to himself, which eye saw her putting on makeup?

Xie Yunsong glanced at her, and said with a slight curl of his lips: "Let's go."

The inn they were staying in was not far from the river, so the five of them did not take a carriage or ride horses, but walked to the river.

Xie Yunsong and Cheng Beixiao were handsome young men, and they stood out when they walked on the street. From time to time, women would come up to them to chat with them or approach them.

Xie Yunsong had a cold look on his face. He walked on his own with Bai Zhiyuan, skillfully avoiding any intentional contact.

Cheng Beixiao, on the other hand, welcomed everyone who came to him and helped up countless beautiful and affectionate girls.

When the girls saw Bai Zhiyuan's bright face, they didn't dare to come forward anymore.

Tianlin and Tianxun perfectly inherited their master's stern face, and the girl didn't dare to approach them.

Only Cheng Beixiao had a smile on his face, but he couldn't resist it after a while.

Bai Zhiyuan looked at him with a gloating look and said, "Mr. Cheng is quite popular with women."

Cheng Beixiao straightened his slightly wrinkled clothes and said with a smile: "Of course."

As they were talking, the group had already reached the riverside. Cheng Beixiao's family had been doctors in the palace for generations, and they were very wealthy, so he was very generous and chartered a cruise ship.

Since leaving Shangjing, this elegant young man probably hasn't enjoyed such a luxurious cruise again. He was very excited and took Xie Yunsong, Bai Zhiyuan, Tianlin Tianxun and boarded the cruise ship.

From Shangjing to the northern border, and then from the northern border to the southern border, I was exhausted and nervous all the way, fighting all the time. Today, I can take this opportunity to relax.

Bai Zhiyuan walked to the bow and looked. Xin'an was full of singing and dancing. The cruise ships were drifting down the river, and the sound of orchestras and stringed instruments was everywhere. Standing at the bow, he could see the shore in the distance, with bright lights and colorful flowers.

Bai Zhiyuan was in a trance. Half a month ago, the southern border was in the midst of war, but here it was as beautiful as spring. It seemed like it was not the same Dali period, as if now was really a peaceful and prosperous era.

Beautiful piano music came from afar, and Bai Zhiyuan's thoughts were in a mess.

"What are you thinking about?" Xie Yunsong walked to her side and put his coat on her.

The wind at the bow was a bit strong, blowing Bai Zhiyuan's hair into a flutter. She smiled gently, tidied up her messy hair, and said, "I'm thinking about a peaceful and prosperous world."

Xie Yunsong understood the sarcasm in her words and said with a slight curl of his lips: "This is how the world is. When the war doesn't reach their doorstep, people always think they are safe."

Bai Zhiyuan raised the corners of his lips slightly, smiled softly and said: "Since ancient times, everyone has been cleaning up the snow in front of their own door."

Xie Yunsong agreed: "That's right."

The two stopped talking and looked at the small boat swaying on the water.

"Why are you two hiding here? It took me a long time to find you." Cheng Beixiao said dissatisfiedly.

Then he asked again: "How is it?"

Xie Yunsong said calmly: "What's going on?"

Cheng Beixiao said: "Of course it's the scenery."

Xie Yunsong said: "Very good."

Cheng Beixiao paused, feeling that it was boring to talk to him, and turned to Bai Zhiyuan and asked, "What do you think, Miss Bai?"

Bai Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Very good. Beautiful scenery and beautiful weather."

Cheng Beixiao showed a satisfied smile, waved his sleeves, and said: "Miss Bai really knows how to appreciate things. Unlike some people, it's a waste to look at any scenery."

Xie Yunsong didn't want to talk to him.

On the contrary, Bai Zhiyuan looked at the two of them with a smile on his face. With Cheng Beixiao by their side, the journey was much more fun. Unfortunately, they would soon have to say goodbye.

In the autumn, the moon is high in the sky, fireflies are dancing, and the bright lanterns and fishing fires seem to illuminate the entire night.

Cheng Beixiao added: "It's a pity that there are only ordinary cruise ships like this here. If it were in Shangjing, there would be cruise ships a thousand times more luxurious than this one. Stringed instruments and beautiful women by your side would be a truly beautiful scene."

"Ordinary?" Bai Zhiyuan asked in confusion, "I think it's already very good. Master Cheng really knows how to enjoy life."

Cheng Beixiao coughed lightly and said, "Forget it."

"When we return to Shangjing, I will take Miss Bai to experience the boat ride there. The scenery there is no less beautiful than here."

Bai Zhiyuan smiled and shook her head. The moonlight made her beautiful face look even softer, as if a layer of silver light was coated on her face, making her whole body shine.

Cheng Beixiao brought another pot of wine and said, "It would be a pity not to have some good wine with such a beautiful view."

"It's a pity that we were in such a hurry today that we didn't prepare any good wine. Miss Bai, please use some of it. When you return to Shangjing..."

"She shouldn't drink." Without waiting for Cheng Beixiao to finish, Xie Yunsong snatched the wine glass from his hand.

Cheng Beixiao shouted, "Why is it not appropriate to drink? Didn't we drink at that farmer's house when we came from the northern border?"

Xie Yunsong handed the wine glass back to him, supported the side of the boat with both hands, and said nonchalantly: "I said you can't drink, so you can't drink."

Cheng Beixiao was furious, but did not dare to refute Xie Yunsong. He glared at him hatefully, shook his sleeves, turned around and left angrily.

Bai Zhiyuan naturally knew why Xie Yunsong didn't let him drink. He was afraid that this man still remembered the last time she drank at a farmer's house.

But what happened that day? Did she say something she shouldn't have said?

Bai Zhiyuan couldn't remember.
