Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince

Chapter 151: Departure to the South

The year is coming to an end, cold winds are sweeping, snow and snow are rolling, and the chill in the north has not yet dissipated.

At noon today, just as Xie Yunsong had said, he received the emperor's edict, agreeing to let Xie Yunsong go to the southern border.

Bai Zhiyuan thought to herself that perhaps the crisis in the southern border was not just her brother's coma, but something more serious. Perhaps Xie Yunsong did not mention it because he was afraid that she would worry, or perhaps it was a matter of combat, which she did not understand.

In short, she keenly felt that the southern border must be in a desperate situation this time, which was why the emperor agreed to let Xie Yunsong go. Otherwise, her father would not have written to the capital and Xie Yunsong for help.

No matter what, tomorrow we will set off for the southern border. It has been almost a year since I separated from my parents and brothers. Now, I will see them soon, and Bai Zhiyuan's heart is half worried and half happy.

She was packing her luggage in the tent. Actually, she didn't have much luggage. When she came to the northern border from Shangjing, she was afraid of being discovered by Xie Yunsong at first, so she disguised herself as a man and didn't dare to bring any clothes, let alone jewelry.

She packed two sets of clothes, sat down and carefully wiped the Baihong Sword, and took the medical book left by her master. She didn't know what the situation in the southern border was like, maybe it would be useful to take it with her.

Bai Zhiyuan suddenly missed Master Qingyi. It would be great if the master was here. He was knowledgeable and well-informed, and was familiar with the situation in the southern border. Perhaps he would have a good idea.

Xie Yunsong was busy handing over various matters in the Northern Territory to Lu Zhiling and others today. He would be away for at least half a year, and he had to assure them of many things.

Bai Zhiyuan didn't want to disturb him. Cheng Beixiao was traveling with them this time, and because they had to travel tomorrow, they were in a hurry and had to ride as fast as possible, so he rested early.

It was getting late, and they would set off early tomorrow morning. Today, the new recruits had already seen Bai Zhiyuan off, and many of them took out the dry food they had saved up and gave it to Bai Zhiyuan.

Bai Zhiyuan felt very warm in her heart. She felt that she had gained a lot from this trip to the northern border.

The light was still on in Xie Yunsong's tent next to him.

Bai Zhiyuan stood outside the tent and watched for a while, but finally did not bother him. He would leave tomorrow, and he must have a lot of military affairs to deal with.

She turned around, walked towards her tent, and forced herself to lie down on the couch and sleep. After starting the journey tomorrow, she would have to travel day and night and would not be able to rest well. As she thought about this, she fell asleep without realizing it.

Early the next morning, Xie Yunsong was waiting at the door of the tent.

As soon as Bai Zhiyuan went out, the first thing he saw was his figure standing at the door of the tent, with a tall and slender figure and lazy eyes.

Even though Bai Zhiyuan had seen him so many times, he was still stunned for a moment by his handsome appearance.

Cheng Beixiao, who was standing by, saw Bai Zhiyuan coming out and said helplessly, "Sister Bai, look! Xie Yunsong really doesn't seem like a human being. He has so much energy. I heard that he barely slept last night, and yet he was still waiting here early this morning. I have to admit that he is incredible."

Bai Zhiyuan came back to his senses and asked worriedly, "You didn't sleep last night?"

Xie Yunsong shook his head and said, "Nothing. I often can't sleep, so I just don't sleep. I've sorted out the affairs in the northern border. It will take at least half a year for us to leave. If I don't take care of everything, I will still feel uneasy."

Bai Zhiyuan felt sorry for him after hearing this. He took a step forward, held his hand, and said, "Even so, you can't stay up all night!"

Cheng Beixiao, who was standing beside him, had a look of disgust on his face and couldn't help but say, "That's enough, you two. Don't you see there's someone else next to you?"

Bai Zhiyuan felt a little embarrassed, so he quickly let go of Xie Yunsong's hand and coughed unnaturally.

Xie Yunsong ignored Cheng Beixiao.

On this trip, Xie Yunsong brought Bai Zhiyuan, Cheng Beixiao, Tian Lin and Tian Xun, and the five of them set off together. They did not bring any soldiers from the northern border, one reason was that the speed would be slower if they brought the army, and the other was that the current emperor only allowed Xie Yunsong to go to the southern border to assist Bai Tingxuan, and did not send any troops there.

The five of them were ready, and after bidding farewell to Lu Zhiling and other Northern Border troops, they prepared to set off.

The five men mounted their horses, and Xie Yunsong nodded to Lu Zhiling again. Lu Zhiling understood that this meant that the Northern Territory would be handed over to him. He then gave him a solemn bow in return. The two of them naturally had a tacit understanding, and there was no need to say anything extra.

Seeing this, Xie Yunsong turned his horse around and said to Bai Zhiyuan and Cheng Beixiao beside him: "Let's set off!"

Bai Zhiyuan nodded, raised his hand and whipped the horse whip, the horses felt pain, and soon, the four horses galloped together. Lu Zhiling and the others stood behind him, watching the horses whistling and galloping away, disappearing from sight in the blink of an eye, rolling up a cloud of dust.

In just half a day, the five people arrived at Yuehua Town.

Bai Zhiyuan was a little emotional. She was very happy when she came to Yuehua Town last time, but now she felt a little sad. She thought Xie Yunsong should feel the same as her.

Xie Yunsong stopped his horse and stopped outside Yuehua Town, staring in the direction of Yuehua Town for a moment.

After a while, he turned his horse around and whispered, "We are in a hurry this time, so we won't go into the town. Let's bypass Yuehua Town and continue on our way!"

Cheng Beixiao was about to protest. It was almost noon, shouldn't he go to town to have some food first? Just as he was about to speak, Bai Zhiyuan pulled his sleeves, and Cheng Beixiao swallowed the complaint.

Bai Zhiyuan naturally knew Xie Yunsong's intention. Ever since Qin Jinan rebelled last time and was killed by his grandfather Qin Haiyi, Xie Yunsong was afraid that he would not be able to face Qin Haiyi directly.

She still remembered that when they arrived at Yuehua Town, Xie Yunsong specifically asked her to pretend to be his fiancée, just to make Qin Haiyi feel at ease. He also said that every time he passed by Yuehua Town, he would visit Qin Haiyi, which showed the position of Qin Haiyi in his heart. Xie Yunsong looked calm and indifferent on the surface, but in fact, he was the most loyal and righteous. I am afraid that in his heart, Qin Haiyi was like his elder and his relative.

However, fate played a trick on him. Qin Jinan's betrayal made it difficult for Xie Yunsong to face Qin Haiyi. I'm afraid Qin Haiyi would also be unable to face Xie Yunsong.

Bai Zhiyuan looked at Xie Yunsong's expressionless face, and at this moment she felt the loss in his heart.

Bai Zhiyuan thought about it, rode her horse to stand beside Xie Yunsong, and stretched out her hand to him. She knew that Qin Jinan's words before his death still made Xie Yunsong feel bothered from the bottom of his heart.

Xie Yunsong turned his head and saw the woman riding on the horse, looking at him with her head tilted. There was an unfathomable light in her eyes.

He also stared at her. After a moment, he gently lowered his eyes and looked at the hand she stretched out. Her fingers were slender. Xie Yunsong raised his hand and gently stroked her fingertips, then held her hand tightly and smiled softly.

When Bai Zhiyuan saw this, he couldn't help but smile brightly.

At this moment, the two of them were in tune with each other. Everything in the world became dim, and there was only each other in their eyes.

After a long while, Cheng Beixiao on the side didn't understand what was going on. He endured it for a while, but finally couldn't help but said, "Are you two done yet? We're not here to see you two being affectionate. Should we still set off?"

Bai Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, then he withdrew his hand, with a moment of discomfort on his face.

Xie Yunsong still had no expression on his face. Hearing this, he turned his head and glanced at Cheng Beixiao, and then glanced at the direction of Yuehua Town. His eyes changed several times. Finally, he said to the back: "Let's go! Keep on going!"

After saying that, he raised the whip. After a neigh, loud horse hooves sounded, and five people and five horses rushed straight along the road ahead, raising a cloud of dust behind them.
