Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

"Grandpa, I want to go to Huaixi." She didn't believe that Li Yuyan would have an accident. He was a scourge, and scourges always lived for thousands of years. How could an accident happen to him at this time?

"No!" The old man objected firmly, "What's the situation there now? What's the point for a little girl like you to go there? His Majesty has ordered the Sixth Prince to lead the soldiers to rescue the civilians trapped by the flood. You can wait in the capital without worry. No matter what that guy is... we will know the news soon."

Wei Bingyan knew that she had no way of persuading the grandfather to let her leave the capital, so she could only remain silent, with slightly red eyes.

Although she was panicking, she still thought of an important question, "What about the prince? Didn't he send rice to the disaster victims in Huaixi?"

Uncle Hai said: "After the landslide, there was no news of the prince, so the rice could not be delivered to the victims."

Wei Bingyan frowned, "The prince is also missing?" She looked at the old man in surprise. Whether it was a man-made landslide or a torrential rain, this is really a question worth pondering.

"You don't need to think too much about this. The landslide was indeed caused by the heavy rain. In order to prevent people from making mischief, we let the Sixth Prince lead the army to rescue people from the dire straits." said the old man.

Wei Bingyan nodded slightly, her expression still not relaxing. Her heart could not calm down as long as she thought about Li Yuyan's uncertain life or death.

The old man looked at her lovingly and said, "You go back first. I'll have someone tell you if there's any news."

"Yes, Grandpa, I'm leaving first." Wei Bingyan was in a state of unrest and didn't know how she would get back to Wanyuan. Wei Hui and Wei Wan had already left with knowledge of the ways of the world.

Aunt Yin saw that Wei Bingyan looked abnormal, and hurried in, "Miss, are you okay?"

Wei Bingyan tugged at Aunt Yin's chic sleeves, "Third Senior Brother... he can't be found, he can't be found."

"What?" Aunt Yin was horrified, and then she immediately denied it firmly, "Miss, you can't believe the rumors outside. Master Li is very skilled, and he won't get into trouble easily."

"It's not a rumor. There was a severe flood in Huaixi, and the only road was blocked by landslides. The civilians there couldn't escape at all. Even if he had great skills, how could he fight against the sky?" Wei Bingyan said worriedly.

She had confidence in Li Yuyan, but she was worried that under such circumstances, someone would intentionally harm him.

Hard to guard against...

Aunt Yin consoled her, "Miss, don't think too much. Ordinary people can't harm Master Li."

Given Li Yuyan's character, it would be difficult to harm him.

Wei Bingyan thought of Li Yuyan's evil intentions and her lips curled up.

At this time, a young lady came in to reply. Bai Binghui went out and came back after a while and said, "The old lady guarding the small gate came to reply and said that there is a young lady named Guan who wants to see you outside."

"It's Xiao Xin!" Wei Bingyan's eyes suddenly brightened up, "Please ask her to come in."

Soon, Guan Mengxin arrived. Her expression did not change, but her whole body was completely wet. Wei Bingyan did not ask her why she left the Prince's Mansion. She asked Bai Binghui to prepare warm water and clothes immediately, and let Guan Mengxin change the wet clothes first.

Guan Mengxin had something important to say to Wei Bingyan, so she changed her clothes in no time.

"Junior sister, have you heard from others that the prince had an accident?" Guan Mengxin went straight to the point and asked as soon as she sat down.

"I heard from others that there happened to be a landslide and no trace of them was found. Even our third senior brother has been lost." Wei Bingyan knew that Guan Mengxin was no longer worried about the prince, but was worried about Wang Tianbao who was beside the prince.

Guan Mengxin's expression changed slightly, and she tightly grasped Wei Bingyan's hand, "Junior Sister, I want to go to Huaixi. Abao is injured, and I am really worried about him."

"Second Brother is injured? How did he get injured?" Wei Bingyan asked in surprise.

"That was an injury that happened before this. It just happened to break out when it rained continuously." Guan Mengxin's face showed a bitter expression. "Yes, what do you think happened to my cousin who has no news?"

Wei Bingyan told Guan Mengxin the news she had heard from Uncle Hai today. At the end, she said softly, "Xiao Xin, I also want to go to Huaixi. Let's go together."

"That...that won't do. If my cousin knew that I took you on this risk, he wouldn't let me off." Guan Mengxin said hurriedly. She hadn't thought about what would happen to Li Yuyan.

"The rain is getting lighter now, so there won't be any danger. Besides, you are worried about the second senior brother, and I am also worried about the third senior brother. You should know my mood." Wei Bingyan said.

Guan Mengxin hesitated for a while, thinking that it might be good if she could go with her junior sister. If she happened to encounter an outbreak of Ah Bao, her junior sister could still help. Her aunt had also said that her junior sister would have been able to leave long ago...

"I'll go prepare the carriage and set off tomorrow morning." Guan Mengxin said, "But, can you really go with me?"

Wei Bingyan nodded resolutely. She only needed to deceive the old man the next day and she would be able to leave the capital.

The next day, I don’t know whether the old man guessed that Wei Bingyan would sneak out or heard rumors from somewhere, but he actually asked Uncle Hai to wait quietly at the small door and did not let Wei Bingyan go out.

Wei Bingyan made a prompt decision and went to Yin Garden to beg the old man in a tantrum, and guaranteed that she would come back safely. After begging for a long time, the old man finally relented a little, but she had to take Uncle Hai with her.

Uncle Hai is extremely capable, and with him around to protect Wei Bingyan, the old man feels more at ease.

Therefore, Wei Bingyan took Uncle Hai and Aunt Yin with Guan Mengxin to Huaixi. Fortunately, the rain in the capital had subsided, so they could speed up to a certain extent.

They just didn't expect that they would happen to meet the Sixth Prince who had been ordered to go to Huaixi on their official road.

The Sixth Prince led more than a hundred soldiers to the Huaixi Passage to rescue the trapped civilians. After walking for a day, they stopped to rest at a hotel on the official road. Unexpectedly, they ran into Wei Bingyan who was staying at the hotel.

"Sixth Prince." Wei Bingyan originally wanted to avoid meeting the Sixth Prince, but when she saw that the other party had noticed her and was walking towards her, she had no choice but to salute respectfully.

"Miss Wei, where are you going?" The Sixth Prince looked at her with a frown, wondering how she could go out in such a weather. His sharp eyes swept across the people around her, and when he saw Guan Mengxin, his brows slightly frowned.

Wei Bingyan said softly: "Huaixi."

An unusual and dazzling brilliance flashed across the Sixth Prince's eyes. "Huaixi was hit by a disaster. What are you doing there as a girl?" He paused, thinking of Li Yuyan who seemed to be in Huaixi. His eyes darkened a little. "For Lord Li?"

Guan Mengxin looked at the Sixth Prince with a frown, and couldn't help wondering in her heart whether such a man was extremely concerned about her junior sister. What did their plan to go to Huaixi to look for their senior brother have to do with him? Why was he unhappy?

"My senior brother's life or death is unpredictable. I am worried, so I want to go and see for myself." Wei Bingyan said lightly. She could feel the Sixth Prince's concern for her, but deep in her heart at this time she was only concerned about Li Yuyan's safety and could not listen to any advice.

"How are you going to go? There's a landslide and the road is completely blocked. Are you still thinking of traveling through mountains and rivers to Huaixi?" The Sixth Prince felt suffocated for no reason. Even for Li Yuyan, did he not have to worry about his own safety?

She didn't think so much about it. She just thought that since His Majesty had already sent soldiers to the passage, they must have a way to get through.

"Sixth Prince, please take the order and lead the way. We will naturally be able to pass." Wei Bingyan said, craning her neck to look at him.

How much does she care about Li Yuyan that she did something so emotional just now? The Sixth Prince thought a little lonely, and finally he could only sigh, "The landslide hit the road, we don't know what the situation is, we can only go over and see it before we can think of a solution.

If the rain doesn't stop, I'm afraid there will be landslides along the way. If you encounter this situation, what will you do?"

Guan Mengxin chimed in, "The raindrops are clearly getting smaller."

The Sixth Prince looked at her coldly, then lowered his head and looked at Wei Bingyan with a cold gaze, "Go back to the capital. If there is any news about Lord Li, I will naturally let someone inform you as soon as possible."

"Thank you for your kindness, but I still want to go find him in person." Wei Bingyan said.

The Sixth Prince felt a raging flame rising from his heart, but he quickly calmed down and thought gloomily, what qualifications did he have to ask her not to take risks?

"Be careful, especially when passing through the winding mountain roads. Ask someone to go over and take a look first, and make sure there is no danger before going over." That was all he could say.

Wei Bingyan bowed her head and said, "Thank you for your concern, Sixth Prince."

The Sixth Prince looked at her deeply, then walked away gracefully. His tall and broad figure seemed as calm and steady as a mountain, yet made people feel a little lonely and isolated.

Guan Mengxin approached Wei Bingyan and said softly, "Junior sister, the Sixth Prince cares about you very much."

"Since we are familiar with each other, we are naturally concerned about each other. Well, let's eat something and rest for a night before we set off." Wei Bingyan said.

Uncle Hai followed them silently, and passers-by found a quiet corner to sit down.

The Sixth Prince and his pawns were all outside. They were rushing to Huaixi and it was impossible for them to stay here like Wei Bingyan and the others.

"...Are those the same people from a few days ago? Are they going to enter the village to steal things again?"

"It doesn't seem like that. I just heard them say that they were going to the tunnel to rescue people from the dire situation."

"Ah, those who entered the village to steal the grains and rice said they were going to save people from dire straits. Humph, the officials are so great. They make all the decisions. The poor people in those villages had a bad harvest, and even the remaining grains and rice were taken away by the court."

"..."

At a clean table corner not far from Wei Bingyan and the others, two men dressed as traveling merchants were discussing in low voices. They spoke very quietly, but Wei Bingyan and the others had good hearing skills, so they could naturally hear clearly what they were saying.

Several people looked at each other in dismay, unable to believe that at this time there were still people who dared to pretend to be soldiers and rob the civilians of their grains.
