Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince
Chapter 45 Murderous Intent
After Tian Lin left, Bai Zhiyuan raised his head and took a close look at the entire cabin. At this time, lanterns had been lit outside and people rushed out of the cabin. In an instant, only a few scattered people were left in the cabin.
Bai Zhiyuan raised her head again and looked at the few people left. She saw a man in black pretending to drink tea in the crowd, and he kept glancing at Bai Zhiyuan. Bai Zhiyuan was thoughtful. This man seemed familiar. She searched carefully in her mind where she had seen this man. Suddenly, she had an idea. This man was the guard beside Jiang Shuyan in the previous life, but Jiang Shuyan was dead in this life. So there was only one possibility, Jiang Shuyan had hidden some power and handed it over to his daughter, Jiang Muyun, before he died.
Bai Zhiyuan knew clearly in her heart who wanted to kill her and her brother today. It was self-evident.
After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhiyuan's eyebrows moved slightly, and he slowly walked forward.
The man in black was startled and stopped what he was doing, watching her approach.
Xie Yunsong and Cheng Beixiao behind him were confused.
Bai Zhiyuan walked up to the man in black and stood in front of him. She suddenly pulled out the dagger from her boots and pressed it against his neck.
The man in black was shocked and said, "A dignified Princess Rong'an would actually hurt someone in public?"
Bai Zhiyuan was a little uncertain before, after all, his memory of his past life was a little fuzzy. After this person said this, Bai Zhiyuan was 100% sure that this person was Jiang Shuyan's subordinate, and now he was under the command of Jiang Muyun.
Bai Zhiyuan sneered, "Do you know who I am? Tell me, who sent you here? Where is my brother now?"
The man in black was horrified. He didn't know how he was exposed. He stood there, speechless for a while.
Cheng Beixiao, who was behind Bai Zhiyuan, was surprised and whispered, "How did Miss Bai know that this person was the one who followed her?"
Xie Yunsong did not respond to him, but just watched the scene in front of him quietly.
Seeing the man in black remained silent, Bai Zhiyuan moved the knife forward a little more. His face was completely devoid of patience, and he said sternly, "Tell me quickly, where is my brother now?"
The man in black finally reacted and said hurriedly, "I don't know what the lady is talking about. I had the honor of meeting the county lady a few days ago, and only then did I know her identity."
Then he shouted, "Please spare my life, Lady Rong'an. I have not offended you. How can you kill innocent people?" This attracted the attention of people around him.
Bai Zhiyuan's eyes were filled with coldness, and he said solemnly, "You are the bodyguard of Jiang Shuyan, the former Huaiyuan general who collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country. What is your conspiracy in following me today?"
The man in black widened his eyes. He had always been a force that Jiang Shuyan had kept outside the palace, and had never appeared in the eyes of the world. But the woman in front of him saw through his identity at a glance. He was trembling all over, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Bai Zhiyuan had no patience left on his face. Seeing that the man was reluctant to confess, he waved his hand and with a "ah" sound, the black-clothed man's thumb was chopped off by the dagger.
The man rolled over on the ground in pain. But Bai Zhiyuan remained calm and shouted, "Tell me! Where is my brother?"
The man in black had a fierce look in his eyes. He ignored the pain in his hands, drew the soft sword from his waist, and rushed towards Bai Zhiyuan.
Bai Zhiyuan dodged nimbly and turned his wrist, pointing the dagger in his hand straight towards the black-clothed man's chest. Just as he was about to stab him, he turned around and the knife stabbed the man's arm.
"Ah" another scream resounded across the river, and people around dodged.
Bai Zhiyuan's eyes were cold, and he said sternly, "Are you going to tell me or not?"
The man in black spat out a mouthful of blood and said viciously, "Your brother is probably already a corpse by now. Miss Bai, don't even think about finding him."
Bai Zhiyuan laughed in anger: "Good, very good, I didn't expect that the Jiang family in the past could still have such a tough guy."
After saying that, he dragged the man in black who was groaning in pain to the side of the cabin and kicked him off the boat without hesitation.
With a "splash" sound, the man fell into the water, struggled desperately in the water, and finally disappeared.
Cheng Beixiao was puzzled and asked, "Miss Bai, if you want to find your brother, why kill him? If you kill him, no one will know where your brother is."
Bai Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Maybe not." She turned and walked towards the cabin. When the remaining people in the cabin saw her, they didn't dare to look her in the eye.
Only one person glanced at Bai Zhiyuan cautiously.
Bai Zhiyuan's eyes fell on him, he walked up to him calmly, and said in a deep voice: "Now it's your turn."
When the man heard this, he was horrified and quickly stood up and stumbled out of the boat.
Bai Zhiyuan flipped his wrist, and the dagger in his hand flew out, turning into a stream of light and piercing into his thigh. The man screamed and fell down, unable to move for a while.
Bai Zhiyuan approached slowly, leaned over and pulled out the dagger. The man screamed again. Bai Zhiyuan stepped on his wound and said sternly, "Speak!"
The man trembled all over and begged for mercy: "Please spare my life, County Lady. I am just following your orders."
Bai Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow, "Oh? Whose orders are you following and what are you doing?"
The man stammered, "This...Please spare me, County Lord. I know where your brother is."
Bai Zhiyuan said coldly: "Speak."
The man stammered, "On the other side of the river. We have someone leading him there."
Bai Zhiyuan was startled when he heard this. There was a forest on the other side of the river. He then kicked him away and said coldly, "Get lost.
Upon hearing this, the man hurriedly dragged his injured leg and staggered out.
Xie Yunsong on the side did not say a word from beginning to end, just quietly watching this good show. Cheng Beixiao looked at Bai Zhiyuan with admiration and said: "Miss Bai, you are amazing, how did you know they have accomplices? Didn't you see that guy was so scared that he almost peed his pants just now?"
Bai Zhiyuan did not answer him. She put away the dagger in her hand, looked up at Xie Yunsong's calm gaze and said, "General Xie, can I borrow your sword?"
Cheng Beixiao gasped when he heard this. He knew that Xie Yunsong loved swords as if they were his life. Once someone touched his sword, he slapped him away with one palm.
Xie Yunsong's sword is called Qingshuang. It is made of jasper and its sword energy is like water, gentle yet sharp. It is said that this sword was specially made for Xie Yunsong by his father Xie Yu when he first went to the battlefield.
Xie Yunsong just thought for a moment, and it was difficult to see any emotion in his dark eyes. He slowly raised his hand and handed the sword to Bai Zhiyuan.
Bai Zhiyuan took the sword and thanked him, then turned and walked into the night. Xie Yunsong stared at her back and followed her, leaving Cheng Beixiao standing there in surprise. After a moment, he hurriedly followed and shouted, "You two wait for me."
