Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince

Xie Yunsong carried Bai Zhiyuan on his back and found a cave. After entering the cave, he slowly put Bai Zhiyuan down.

Afterwards, Xie Yunsong asked Bai Zhiyuan to wait here for a while, and he went out on his own. Not long after, he came back with a few pieces of dry firewood in his arms.

Xie Yunsong said to Bai Zhiyuan, "Do you have a fire starter? I used mine to fight off the wild wolves."

Bai Zhiyuan hurriedly took out the fire starter from his body.

After a while, the bonfire was lit.

Only then did Xie Yunsong see that Bai Zhiyuan's feet were scratched by dead branches and his shoes and socks were soaked with blood.

Xie Yunsong walked over, lifted up Bai Zhiyuan's feet, and took off her shoes and socks, revealing her originally white and tender feet, which were now covered in blood. He tore off his clothes and bandaged her wounds.

Bai Zhiyuan's heart trembled slightly at this moment.

After Xie Yunsong finished doing all this, he sat down opposite her again, gently picking up the firewood for the campfire without looking at her.

The atmosphere in the cave was a little subtle for a moment, and Bai Zhiyuan was also staring at the small fire in front of him.

After a long time, Bai Zhiyuan's stomach rumbled at an inopportune time.

The cave was quiet, so Xie Yunsong naturally heard it. He joked, "Miss Bai, are you hungry?"

Bai Zhiyuan said embarrassedly: "I went to the forest to ride my horse early today, but I didn't expect to encounter danger. I fought in the forest for a whole day. Now my physical strength is exhausted, and naturally I am very hungry."

Xie Yunsong smiled when he heard this. He took out a piece of wood to make a torch and walked out of the cave. After a while, he came back with a pheasant in his hand.

He said softly, "When I carried you in just now, I vaguely saw some pheasants nearby. Miss Bai, please wait for a moment, they will be roasted and ready to eat. The mountains are rough and there is nothing else to fill your stomach. Miss Bai, please don't despise them."

Bai Zhiyuan smiled and said, "How could that be? I have to thank you for saving my life today and for filling my stomach."

Xie Yunsong smiled when he heard this. He did not stop his movements and soon the pheasant was roasted on the fire.

On the other side in the woods, Bai Tingxuan and Bai Qiuze received the news and had been searching for Bai Zhiyuan.

The group rushed to the place Ling Xiao mentioned without stopping, and as expected, they found the remaining horse hoof prints, arrows all over the ground, messy footprints of wild beasts, a dead wolf nearby, and a corpse that had been eaten clean by wild beasts.

Bai Tingxuan and Bai Qiuze trembled in their hearts. Bai Zhiyuan was alone, and they could imagine how dangerous it was for her to face so many ambushes alone. Her whereabouts were unknown, and they didn't know if she had hidden herself or... No matter how brave and skilled Ah Yuan was, it would be difficult for her to escape from so many sieges.

The father and son didn't want to think too much and hurriedly followed the horseshoe prints along the way.

They chased the two men all the way to the hill where they rolled down and found the fragments of Bai Zhiyuan's clothes. Bai Tingxuan hurriedly ordered Bai Qiuze to take a team of people to go down and check.

The search continued until the night deepened, but there was still no result. Bai Tingxuan ordered Bai Qiuze to continue searching, and he returned to the palace to report to the emperor.

At night, Mount Li Palace.

Bai Tingxuan hurried back and met Emperor Renxiao at night.

"Your Majesty, my daughter was ambushed in the woods today. General Yunhui Xie Yunsong went to rescue her, but the two are still missing. Please, Your Majesty, help me find out the truth. Who is so cruel as to kill my daughter?"

Emperor Renxiao was furious: "Who is so bold as to hurt someone in the Royal Forest Garden?" Looking at Bai Tingxuan who looked worried, he said: "Don't worry, my dear minister. I will increase the manpower and search for the whereabouts of Yun Hui and Rong An with all our strength."

"Someone come! Li Mi, the leader of the Xuan Imperial Army!"

Soon, Li Mi, radiating coldness, entered the hall and performed his greetings.

The emperor ordered: "Send more people immediately to find the whereabouts of General Yunhui and Princess Rong'an. Also, have you captured anyone alive?"

Li Mi said: "I have captured dozens of people in the forest. They hid in the forest and shot arrows at the Princess of Rong'an who came to them. They also attracted wild animals and wanted to let the Princess be torn to death by wild animals. Several of them committed suicide during the capture, and the rest are very stubborn and have not confessed yet."

Emperor Renxiao said angrily: "No matter what method you use, make them speak. I want to see who is so bold as to take action in the Royal Forest Garden."

Li Mi said, "Yes," and then took his leave.

After hearing this, Bai Tingxuan could no longer sit still, not knowing that his daughter had encountered such a thrilling thing. He hurriedly took his leave from the emperor and continued to search for his daughter's whereabouts.

The Queen's bedroom at this time.

"Zheng——" The teacup fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

The nanny at the door heard the noise inside and waved her hand to signal the palace servants to disperse.

The Queen said angrily: "She was allowed to escape like this. This Rong'an County Lady is really capable."

Princess Changle said angrily: "Mother, I heard that Brother Yunsong went to rescue her. Now both of them are missing, a man and a woman are alone in the same room, and this seductive vixen. Mother, what should we do now?"

The Queen raised her eyes and looked at her sternly: "What do you mean? This matter has nothing to do with us. We are not the ones who should be anxious."

Changle was surprised and asked, "Mother, wasn't this arranged by you today?"

The Queen smiled and said, "Of course not. Of course there are people who want her life, I am just going along with it."

Princess Changle continued, "Mother, but now even if it's not us, everyone is suspicious of us. Bai Zhiyuan just defeated me yesterday, and today we were ambushed..."

The Queen said sternly, "What are you afraid of? They may suspect you, but they don't have any evidence."

Princess Changle felt relieved after hearing this. However, she hated Bai Zhiyuan in her heart and hoped that she would die outside.

On the other side is the bedroom of Prince Kangding.

Prince Kangding, leaning on a cane and pacing back and forth on one leg, said in shock and anger: "He actually escaped?"

The subordinates wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads in panic: "That Rong'an County Lady is really powerful. Later, when General Yunhui came, our people were afraid of being exposed, so they had to hide in the dark and shoot arrows. But now the whereabouts of both of them are unknown, maybe they have been eaten by wolves."

"Idiots!" King Kangding said angrily, "Yun Hui is the person the emperor values ​​most, and you dare to attack him? Since Yun Hui is here, why don't you retreat immediately? A bunch of idiots!" After King Kangding finished speaking, he hit his men hard with his crutch.

The subordinate lost his balance and fell to the ground. He quickly got up and said with a pale face, "Your Highness, the Emperor has already started investigating this matter. What should we do?"

"What should we do?" Prince Kangding said angrily, "As long as you refuse to admit it, what can my brother do? Go quickly and kill those people that Li Mi has captured. Don't let them say anything about me."

Upon hearing this, the men hurriedly followed the order and left. King Kangding was left alone, feeling uneasy.

That day, the Queen's people found him and hinted that he had killed Rong'an County Lady. He knew that it was Rong'an County Lady who defeated Changle in public, which made his sister-in-law unhappy. It just so happened that he also wanted to avenge the Yuanyang Tower, so he set up an ambush today to assassinate Bai Zhiyuan. But he didn't expect Xie Yunsong to show up halfway.

Prince Kangding clenched his fists, his face grim. Damn Bai Zhiyuan, it's better that he's dead now, otherwise he won't be so lucky next time.
