Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince

The wind in the wilderness swayed the leaves, and the long wind blew up the corners of the boy's clothes, flying in the wind.

Bai Zhiyuan retracted his gaze, shook his head, and laughed secretly in his heart. What was wrong with him? He actually felt sympathy for such a promising, brave and warlike general of the Dali Dynasty. If Xie Yunsong knew about this at this moment, he would definitely find it ridiculous.

Bai Zhiyuan put his thoughts aside. At this time, the carriage that Jiang Muyun was riding in had arrived.

Bai Zhiyuan turned to Ling Xiao and said, "Let's go. We should be able to return to see brother before dark."

Bai Zhiyuan had just stood up when at this moment, there was a rustling sound coming from all around. The sound was very slight, but for people who practiced martial arts, their hearing was different from that of ordinary people, so Bai Zhiyuan heard it.

Bai Zhiyuan was startled, sensing the approach of danger. She turned to look at Xie Yunsong on horseback. Even she had heard it, so Xie Yunsong must have been alert.

But Xie Yunsong didn't seem to notice, and didn't stop, or even look around. Bai Zhiyuan was thinking whether to remind Xie Yunsong. Bai Zhiyuan had heard the footsteps getting closer and closer, and before he could react, Bai Zhiyuan shouted: "Xie Yunsong, be careful."

Looking again at the surrounding weeds, a large group of people in black clothes, wearing masks and holding knives in their hands jumped out, and rushed towards the man on the horse.

Xie Yunsong turned around suddenly with a murderous look in his eyes, and jumped up from his horse. With a "ding" sound, he drew out his sword. With a flash of sword light, he swung the sword and stabbed the man who rushed up. The man had no time to dodge and his arm was cut off alive.

For a moment, the only sound I could hear was the "bang bang bang" of swords colliding, the wind sounded like frost, and from time to time, bursts of hot blood burst out and splashed all around.

Looking at the distance, dense arrows were coming at him. Xie Yunsong raised his sword and swung it left and right to block a wave of arrows. The arrows were blocked by the sword and fell to the ground. Xie Yunsong turned around and fought with another group of people.

Bai Zhiyuan hurriedly took Ling Xiao to hide aside, and heard screams of panic all around. Who on earth dared to assassinate the general who had just returned from a victorious battle, and was so impatient that he did it not far from Shangjing.

Suddenly, Bai Zhiyuan heard a scream and saw Jiang Muyun's carriage through the jungle. He had no time to hide. The horse was stabbed by an arrow and suddenly raised its front hooves and rushed into the distance like an arrow. Seeing that the carriage was running very fast, the driver was thrown to the ground. Jiang Muyun didn't know what was going on. He was knocked around in the carriage and shouted in panic: "Help, save me!"

Bai Zhiyuan saw this, but did not come forward, just watched coldly from a distance. If Jiang Muyun was buried here today, it would be the retribution for her previous life.

Looking at Xie Yunsong again, silver light flashed in his hand, his eyes were filled with fierce murderous intent, and his long sword drew a graceful arc to meet the attack of the man in black. His sword skills were exquisite, his body was as fast as the wind, and he shuttled freely among the men in black, and in a moment, the men in black fell to the ground one after another.

The leader of the men in black was pinned to the sword by Xie Yunsong, but there was no fear in the man's eyes, and he even let out a sinister laugh.

At this moment, a soldier standing not far from Xie Yunsong pulled out a short arrow from under his sleeve.

In an instant, the short arrow was fired.

Bai Zhiyuan saw this scene clearly from the angle she was standing. She even clearly saw a faint blue light flashing on the arrow, which was the color of a highly poisonous substance.

Bai Zhiyuan watched the arrow shoot towards Xie Yunsong.

Without time to think, Bai Zhiyuan drew his sword, flew out, and slashed with all his strength. The short arrow that had shot to Xie Yunsong broke into two in the air. The arrow shaft at the rear rotated and fell abruptly, while the arrow head at the front changed direction, and with a muffled groan, it flew towards Xie Yunsong's ear, and then shot deeply into a dead tree, leaving only a broken shaft exposed outside.

All this happened from beginning to end in just a breath of time. Seeing this, Xie Yunsong's subordinates reacted quickly and swung their knives at the man who shot the arrow. The man's throat moved and a line of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He actually committed suicide by taking poison.

It turned out to be a death warrior.

Xie Yunsong then turned around and saw Bai Zhiyuan in plain clothes. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, but it disappeared in an instant. "Thank you, Miss Bai, for your help."

"Thank you for your politeness, General. You are a meritorious official of Dali. Not only me, but any Dali person who sees this today will draw their swords to help. General, don't take it to heart."

Xie Yunsong thought for a moment, then suddenly took out a jade pendant from his waist, handed it to Bai Zhiyuan and said, "I am not an ungrateful person. Thanks to Miss Bai, I was able to escape today. Please accept this jade pendant. If Miss Bai has any difficulties or encounters any problems in the future, please send this to me. I will do my best to help Miss Bai."

Bai Zhiyuan looked at Xie Yunsong steadily. Seeing his serious expression, he could not bear to reject his kindness. He raised his hand to take the jade pendant and said, "In this case, I will accept it."

"But right now, there is something that really requires the general's help."

"Miss Bai, please speak."

"Jiang Muyun, the daughter of General Huaiyuan Jiang Shuyan, who just returned to the capital with me, is missing now because the carriage was startled by the arrows fired by the assassin. Please send someone to find Miss Jiang."

Xie Yunsong raised his head and glanced at Bai Zhiyuan with a hint of surprise in his eyes. Although he was fighting just now, he still noticed the carriage. Naturally, he also saw Bai Zhiyuan looking at the carriage running wildly with an indifferent expression.

In fact, he saw Bai Zhiyuan when he was on horseback. Perhaps the little girl who had competed with her before had left a similarly deep impression on him, so he recognized her at a glance.

Xie Yunsong said, "I will send someone to look for her right away, and then send someone to send Miss Bai back to Beijing. I will inform Miss Bai as soon as I have any news."

Bai Zhiyuan smiled faintly and said, "Thank you very much, General. I will take my leave now. Take care, General."

After saying this, he took Ling Xiao onto the horse, said goodbye to Xie Yunsong, and was about to ride away.

Xie Yunsong sent two of his subordinates to escort Bai Zhiyuan back to Beijing.

Bai Zhiyuan had just taken a few steps when he turned his horse's head and looked up at Xie Yunsong and said, "General Xie, I have one more thing to say, but I don't know if I should say it."

"Miss Bai, you can say whatever you want."

Bai Zhiyuan stared at Xie Yunsong seriously and said, "General Xie, I'm very sorry for the loss."

Xie Yunsong's breathing stagnated as he realized that she was talking about his father's death in battle. He was about to speak, but Bai Zhiyuan had already turned his horse around and galloped away.

The setting sun was endless, and the weeds were sparse. Xie Yunsong sat on the horse and watched Bai Zhiyuan's back leave until he disappeared.

He came back to his senses, suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, and slowly set out on his way.
