After Bai Zhiyuan came out of Bai Qiuze's tent, he couldn't help feeling heavy-hearted.

What should I do if my brother continues to sleep like this?

If only the master was still alive, Bai Zhiyuan couldn't help thinking. When the master was young, he traveled a lot, was knowledgeable, and read a lot of books. He must have a way to save his brother.

Along the way, Bai Zhiyuan forced herself not to think about her brother's coma. She placed her hopes on Cheng Beixiao, but she knew very well in her heart that Cheng Beixiao was just a doctor. He was not good at making poisons, let alone detoxifying.

There is only one way to go now, that is to do as Cheng Beixiao said, capture a southern barbarian and force him to tell her the whereabouts of the antidote. No matter what the cost, she must save her brother.

However, she had just arrived in the Southern Territory and knew nothing about it, so she still had to ask her father and mother about the situation in the Southern Territory.

Xie Yunsong, who followed Bai Zhiyuan out, couldn't help but frown when he saw Bai Zhiyuan's worried look.

Bai Zhiyuan looked up at him and said, "Xie Yunsong, how can I save my brother?"

Xie Yunsong didn't know how to comfort her, so he could only hold her in his arms and give her some warmth at this moment.

But he didn't expect to be seen by Bai Tingxuan who had just come out of Bai Qiuze's tent.

Bai Tingxuan snorted coldly and immediately understood that his daughter might have secretly decided to spend her life with Xie Yunsong.

He looked at the two people in front of him with a dark face and said coldly: "You two follow me!"

Bai Zhiyuan also wanted to confess to his father, so upon hearing this, he grabbed Xie Yunsong and followed Bai Tingxuan towards his tent.

As soon as he entered the tent, Bai Tingxuan turned around and saw his daughter holding Xie Yunsong's hand tightly, and he was furious.

He said angrily: "Ayuan, tell me, why did you follow him to the Northern Territory without saying a word? Did you two already..."

Bai Zhiyuan interrupted him and said, "Father, you misunderstood. I went to the Northern Territory disguised as a man before, and General Xie didn't know about it. He and I were innocent when we went to the capital. We fell in love with each other during the six months we spent together in the Northern Territory."

Bai Tingxuan became angrier as he listened. "You and him were innocent when you were in the capital? You had many interactions with him when you were in the capital. Tell me, was it because of him that you were determined to break off the engagement with the King of Yan?"

Bai Zhiyuan's eyes were filled with anger when she heard this. She asked, "Father, in your eyes, is your daughter such a fickle person? I told you clearly why I broke off the engagement with the King of Yan. These things have nothing to do with Xie Yunsong. The reason why I secretly went to the northern border was because you, father, were so tyrannical and did not allow me to come to the southern border..."

"Pa!" Without waiting for Bai Zhiyuan to finish his words, Bai Tingxuan's eyes turned grim and he slapped Bai Zhiyuan in the face.

Bai Zhiyuan looked incredulous. She stared at her father with her eyes wide open and tears streaming down her face.

Xie Yunsong on the side didn't want to say much, as this was a matter between father and daughter, but he looked at Bai Zhiyuan, and palm prints quickly appeared on Bai Zhiyuan's fair face, and his eyes were filled with tears.

Xie Yunsong couldn't help but feel distressed, but he still took into consideration that the man in front of him was Bai Zhiyuan's father. He said with dissatisfaction: "General Weiyuan doesn't know what his own daughter is like? Ayuan and I are both unmarried, so why is the general so angry?"

Bai Zhiyuan just woke up from the slap her father had just given her. She didn't even look at Bai Tingxuan anymore and ran out of the tent crying.

Xie Yunsong hurriedly chased after him.

Bai Tingxuan also looked at his hand in disbelief. His daughter had always been the apple of his eye since she was a child. Normally, he never even spoke loudly to her. But today, he got so angry that he actually hit her.

Xie Yunsong grabbed Bai Zhiyuan, and Bai Zhiyuan couldn't hold back any longer and threw himself into his arms and started crying.

Xie Yunsong sighed and said, "Ayuan, your father doesn't know the situation, so..."

Bai Zhiyuan knew it very well. She knew that she was also wrong just now, but how could her father do that?

At this time, Princess Duanhui, who learned that the father and daughter had quarreled again, hurried over. When she came in, she saw Bai Tingxuan sitting there blankly, staring at his hands.

Bai Tingxuan saw her coming in and said, "Madam, I actually attacked A Yuan just now."

Princess Duanhui knew that he must be regretting it at this moment, but she couldn't help but said, "We left Ah Yuan alone in the capital since she was young. She suffered so much while learning martial arts. How could you do that to her? My daughter just arrived. She must have been worried about Qiu Er all the way. You..."

Bai Tingxuan sighed and said, "Madam, you don't know, Ayuan and Xie Yunsong..."

"I just learned about this, and I suspected that she broke off the engagement because of Xie Yunsong, so..."

Unexpectedly, Princess Duanhui said, "I noticed it as soon as they arrived at the camp. But sir, I think General Yunhui is a hundred times better than the King of Yan. Didn't you see that the gentleness in General Yunhui's eyes, who is said to be cold and arrogant, was not fake when he looked at Ayuan?"

"I am a woman, so I understood immediately that General Yun Hui must be very fond of our A Yuan. And A Yuan's eyes were full of love when she looked at General Yun Hui unconsciously."

Bai Tingxuan was surprised: "Madam, you..."

Princess Duanhui: "I just wanted to ask Ayuan, but Ayuan was worried about Qiu'er, so I didn't have time to ask. I didn't expect that you two would start arguing again just a moment later."

Bai Tingxuan's face flashed with guilt, but when he thought of his daughter's protection of Xie Yunsong just now, he couldn't help but feel jealous. His daughter actually contradicted him because of another man.

Princess Duanhui had been married to him for many years and knew that although Bai Tingxuan had a hot temper, he was also soft-hearted, especially since his daughter was the apple of his eye. He was just angry for a moment. So she comforted him, "Master, Ayuan will be here soon, don't be so sullen anymore.

"After all, you were the one who hit someone first. If you are still angry, don't make Ah Yuan angry and run away to the northern border with General Yunhui again."

When Bai Tingxuan heard this, he angrily said, "She dares!"

Princess Duanhui stared at him motionlessly, as if to say, "Let's see if she dares."

Bai Tingxuan coughed lightly and said unnaturally: "Okay, I understand."

Princess Duanhui then turned around and left the tent. As soon as she went out, she saw Xie Yunsong walking towards her with Bai Zhiyuan in his arms. She smiled at Xie Yunsong in a friendly manner.

Xie Yunsong touched Bai Zhiyuan's head again and said, "Go ahead. I'll wait for you outside. Have a good talk with your father."

Bai Zhiyuan nodded. Upon hearing this, Princess Duanhui became even more satisfied with Xie Yunsong.

Xie Yunsong nodded to Princess Duanhui, and Princess Duanhui brought Bai Zhiyuan into the tent.

When Bai Tingxuan saw Bai Zhiyuan coming in, his face couldn't help but tense up, but when his eyes fell on the clear palm print on his daughter's face, he couldn't help feeling distressed.

Bai Zhiyuan knelt down in front of Bai Tingxuan and said, "Father, I was just outspoken. You were right to teach me a lesson."

Seeing her like this, Bai Tingxuan no longer had any resentment. He stepped forward and helped her up with concern, saying, "Father is also wrong. No matter what, I can't hit you." He couldn't help but touch his daughter's little face and said, "Does it still hurt?"

Bai Zhiyuan shook his head.

Bai Tingxuan finally felt relieved and said, "Ayuan, father knows that you are a good child. Father misunderstood you. But you are so smart, how could you not know that you and General Yunhui are destined not to be together."

Bai Zhiyuan raised his eyes and asked, "Father, we all know what you said. If the emperor knew about us, he would definitely not grant us a marriage, and he would even try to break us up. But I am not afraid, my daughter must have him in her life anyway."

Bai Tingxuan was speechless when he saw his daughter's determined eyes. He knew that Xie Yunsong was indeed a good destination, but it would be extremely difficult for them to be together.

Forget it. After a long while, Bai Tingxuan seemed to have made a decision. He said, "Since Ayuan likes him so much, father will not stop you. If one day we defeat the Nanman, father will personally ask the emperor for marriage. My daughter, Bai Tingxuan, should be paired with the best man in Dali."

Bai Zhiyuan was deeply moved. No matter in the past or present life, her father always stood firmly on her side. She couldn't help but shed tears, and threw herself into Bai Tingxuan's arms, sobbing.

Princess Duanhui, who was standing by, saw that the father and daughter had reconciled and talked about the problem. She couldn't help but smile with relief. She patted Bai Zhiyuan on the shoulder and said, "You are such a grown-up girl, but you only know how to cry. Our Ah Yuan is still like a little girl."

Bai Zhiyuan burst into tears and laughed.

She thought it would be great to have a second life, where she could still have the love of her parents and meet Xie Yunsong. She would definitely live this hard-earned life well.
