Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince

As soon as the sky brightened, a drizzle began to fall outside.

As Xie Yunsong walked out of the room with Bai Zhiyuan in his arms, they met Princess He Yue who had come over out of concern.

Princess He Yue was relieved to see Bai Zhiyuan wake up. She stepped forward and held Bai Zhiyuan's hand, saying, "Ayuan, good boy, you have suffered."

Bai Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "Mother, I'm fine. I'm sorry to have made you worry."

Princess He Yue's eyes were red. She said, "You're going back now? Why don't you stay for a few more days to recuperate before going back?"

Without waiting for Bai Zhiyuan to answer, Xie Yunsong said, "Mother, we don't have the herbs that Ayuan needs to recover. We should return to Shangjing as soon as possible. Puhua Temple is not peaceful now. Just in case, you should come back with us this time. If you stay here alone, I will inevitably be distracted. If you go back, there will be one more person to take care of Ayuan."

Bai Zhiyuan agreed, "Yes, mother. The King of Yan is now crazy and there is no guarantee that he will not do something outrageous. We are really worried about you staying here, let's go together!"

Princess He Yue thought for a moment and said, "Well, Shangjing is in chaos, it's time for me to go back."

Xie Yunsong and Bai Zhiyuan looked at each other, and both of them were relieved. They were worried that Princess Heyue would not want to go back with them, but now that their wish came true, they could rest assured.

Princess He Yue simply packed her things and returned to Beijing with Xie Yunsong and Bai Zhiyuan. On the way back, Xie Yunsong and Cheng Beixiao rode horses, leaving Bai Zhiyuan and Princess He Yue in the carriage.

Bai Zhiyuan was exhausted and fell asleep in the carriage. Princess He Yue looked at her with concern and covered her with a cloak from time to time.

After half a day's journey, they finally arrived in Shangjing at dusk.

Xie Yunsong and Bai Zhiyuan had just returned to Beijing, and Prince Yan, who had received the news last night that Bai Zhiyuan had escaped, was furious in his mansion.

"Jiang Muyun is a guy who is more likely to cause trouble than to help. He can't even keep an eye on one person. What are you all doing for?" King Yan said angrily.

Bai Yu and the others didn't even dare to raise their heads. They were all injured. Xie Yunsong was a veteran and was more than capable of dealing with them. If they had not retreated in time, they would have become wandering ghosts.

Bai Yu endured the pain and said, "Your Highness, the county lady may know that you are going to take action. Should we suspend the plan first?"

The King of Yan said with his eyes wide open: "Pause? Do you know how long I have waited for this day? Now the arrow is on the string and must be shot, how can I wait? Idiot!"

Bai Yu lowered his head and dared not say another word.

A guard reported: "Your Highness, the room has been burned beyond recognition. Concubine Jiang and the maid who served the county lady were also burned to death."

King Yan waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "If they are unimportant, just burn them to death."

Bai Yu and the others were all shocked. They didn't expect the King of Yan to be so cold-blooded. Aunt Jiang was his woman after all, the only legitimate woman in the King of Yan's mansion, and also his junior sister who grew up with him. The two of them were in love with each other before, but now she died because of him, but he didn't feel sad at all, and didn't even take it to heart. It's hard not to be chilled to follow such a person!

But Bai Yu and the others didn't dare to say much at this moment, but they couldn't help but feel some gossip in their hearts.

After a while, King Yan sat on the chair, tapped his fingers on the chair, and said, "Pass the order down, everything will remain the same tonight, and take all the people with you."

King Yan said with a firm look in his eyes: "This time, failure will turn into benevolence."

Bai Yu and the others were stunned for a moment and said, "Yes!"

After Bai Yu and the others retreated, King Yan clenched his fists and said to himself, "Ayuan, even if you escape, you can't stop me this time!"

When Xie Yunsong, Bai Zhiyuan and Princess Heyue arrived at Shangjing City, Bai Tingxuan, Bai Qiuze and Princess Duanhui were already waiting near the city gate. As soon as they got the news, they rushed over without stopping. This month, they finally found Ah Yuan. How could they still stay here peacefully?

As soon as Xie Yunsong arrived near the city gate on horseback, he saw Bai Tingxuan and his group from afar. He jumped off his horse and was about to speak when Princess Duanhui stepped forward anxiously and asked, "Where is Ayuan? Is she okay?"

Xie Yunsong: "Don't worry, mother. Ayuan is fine except for being a little weak."

Princess Duanhui's eyes were red. She couldn't eat or sleep these days because her daughter had been missing. She prayed in the Buddhist temple every day, hoping that her daughter would return safely soon. Bai Tingxuan, who was standing by, finally felt relieved after hearing this.

Bai Qiuze could no longer hold back and rushed to the carriage where Bai Zhiyuan was sitting. He said, "Sister, it's me, brother. Are you okay?"

Bai Zhiyuan woke up after hearing the voice. When he opened his eyes, he found that he was already near the city tower of Shangjing. Then he heard Bai Qiuze's slightly anxious voice: "Sister?"

Bai Zhiyuan was startled and quickly stood up and lifted the car curtain. What came into her sight were her relatives, who were looking at her with worry on their faces.

Bai Zhiyuan's nose was sore and she almost cried. She had been under house arrest these days and knew that her family must be crazy looking for her, but she couldn't pass on any news. Now seeing them again, Bai Zhiyuan couldn't hold back any more, jumped off the carriage, threw herself into the arms of Princess Duanhui, and couldn't hold back her tears any more.

In the past, she was always alone in Beijing, and she only reported good news to her family, not bad news. However, since their family reunited, she felt the love and care of her relatives. Now that she can return safely, she is very grateful to God for his favor.

Soon, Bai Zhiyuan wiped away his tears, and when he looked up again, he smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have worried my father, mother, and brother. I'm fine. Apart from being unable to move freely these days, I haven't suffered any injuries."

Princess Duan Hui had already pulled her to look left and right, and when she saw the tiny scratches on her hands, she felt distressed. Although Bai Tingxuan and Bai Qiuze also wanted to go forward to check, they still held back because of the difference between men and women.

Princess Duanhui touched Bai Zhiyuan's head and said, "I'm glad that Ah Yuan is okay. Your grandfather has been losing his appetite these days and looks a few years older. Now that you've returned safely, he wanted to come see you, but he hasn't been feeling well lately, so he didn't come. But he's always thinking about you."

Bai Zhiyuan: "Mother, go back and tell grandpa that I will go back to see him when I have time. I have more important things to do today."

Then, she turned to Bai Tingxuan and Bai Qiuze and said solemnly: "Father, brother, during the time I was under house arrest by the King of Yan, I learned that he was going to take action tonight. He wanted to rebel. We must rush to the palace immediately to stop him, otherwise there will be a river of blood in the palace tonight."

Bai Tingxuan and Bai Qiuze were both shocked, and then looked at Xie Yunsong, who nodded seriously. Knowing the seriousness of the situation, Bai Tingxuan immediately said, "Okay, Ah Yuan, you are weak now, you and your mother go back home first, and your brother and I will take people to the palace immediately."

"No!" Bai Zhiyuan refused, "Father, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I know the King of Yan. Only with me here can we have a better chance of winning. Please send someone to send mother back. I want to go to the palace with you."

Bai Tingxuan was startled, but he knew his daughter's personality very well. No one could stop her from doing what she wanted to do. After a little thought, he said, "Okay!"

Princess Duanhui was shocked at first, but now she is worried. However, she still said, "Ayuan, be careful. Mother will wait for you to come home."

Bai Zhiyuan nodded and said, "Mother, it's too late. If you go back to the mansion, please ask grandpa to come to the palace. After all, grandpa is the emperor's uncle. With him around, the King of Yan will always be more concerned."

Princess Duanhui knew the seriousness of the situation, so she nodded solemnly and agreed.

Watching Princess Duanhui get on the carriage back home, Xie Yunsong was worried and sent Tianlin to escort her personally. After the carriage went away, they, together with Bai Tingxuan and Bai Qiuze, rushed to the palace without stopping.
