Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince

Everyone who ate the meal had a smile on their face.

After dinner, Xie Yunsong, Bai Tingxuan and Bai Qiuze discussed the battle again.

Bai Zhiyuan and Princess Duanhui sat aside drinking tea.

Bai Tingxuan said: "This great victory was only possible because the southern barbarians were caught off guard. In addition, He Xiaowan is dead, and the southern barbarians' poison array and poisonous smoke are no longer useful. I think we will be able to retake the southern border in no time."

Bai Qiuze said: "Thanks to my sister this time, we have turned a disaster into a blessing."

Bai Zhiyuan smiled and said, "It's just as my father said. He Xiaowan is so important to the Nanman. I want to see if Heba Yun can keep his throne as emperor after killing her? Will he regret killing the person who loved him one day?"

Xie Yunsong continued, "Heba Yun should not be underestimated. Although he has relied on He Xiaowan for many years, he also has his own methods. He must have planned for a long time to get rid of He Xiaowan by taking this opportunity. I don't think he will regret it."

Bai Tingxuan was in deep thought. Seeing this, Bai Zhiyuan couldn't help but ask, "Father just won a victory. What else is there to worry about?"

Bai Tingxuan hesitated for a moment and said thoughtfully, "Early this morning, the Nanman envoy sent a letter saying that the new Nanman emperor Heba Yun wanted to meet Ayuan."

"What?" Bai Qiuze jumped up first and asked, "Why did he see Ayuan?"

Bai Qiuze had learned from Bai Tingxuan these days that his sister had found an antidote for him and that she and Xie Yunsong had sneaked into the Nanman Palace. He was touched, but only left with fear.

Now, when Bai Tingxuan mentioned Heba Yun, he immediately objected, "Sister, you must not go. The Southern Barbarians are cunning and scheming. Although He Xiaowan is dead, who knows if there is another He Xiaowan who is good at scheming?"

"I was unconscious before. If I knew that my sister had sneaked into the Nanman Palace to find an antidote for me, I would never have been willing to do so. It was useless, brother, and I let you take the risk."

Princess Duanhui was shocked when she heard this. She didn't know when her daughter went to the Nanman Palace. She asked in a trembling voice, "When did Ayuan sneak into the Nanman Palace?"

After these words were spoken, Bai Tingxuan and Bai Qiuze realized that they had said something wrong. They had been hiding it from Princess Duanhui because they were afraid that she would worry. They didn't expect that she would find out today.

Princess Duanhui stood up suddenly and said angrily, "You all hid things from me one by one. How much suffering has my Ayuan endured? How many crises has he experienced? You..." She even started crying at the end.

Bai Tingxuan and Bai Qiuze looked at each other, not daring to speak.

Bai Zhiyuan quickly stood up, held his mother, and said softly, "Mother, I'm fine. Look, I'm fine now. I had no choice but to save my brother that day. Now everyone is happy, why is mother still sad?"

Princess Duanhui felt even more guilty towards her daughter. She looked at her daughter with uncontrollable guilt in her eyes. Her eyes were a little wet and she sighed softly, "Ayuan, you must never hide anything from your mother in the future."

Bai Zhiyuan nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Mother, don't worry."

Bai Tingxuan also stood up, put his arm around Princess Duanhui's shoulders and said, "Don't worry, Madam. Our daughter is smart and capable, and she will be fine."

Princess Duanhui glared at him, and Bai Tingxuan was embarrassed and didn't dare to say anything more.

Bai Zhiyuan looked at the scene in front of him and cherished the time he spent with his family even more.

She looked at Xie Yunsong, thinking about how to tell her parents that she would be returning to the North soon.

At this time, Bai Qiuze said again: "Sister, you must not act on impulse and go to see that stupid Southern Barbarian Emperor."

Bai Zhiyuan laughed and said, "Don't worry, brother. I don't plan to meet him."

Bai Tingxuan comforted Princess Hao Duanhui and said, "Then Heba Yun must know your true identity. But since he lost the battle this time, why does he want to see you now?"

Bai Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "No matter what he is planning, I will not go to see him. Since he asked to see me, he must have found out my true identity. Also, when He Xiaowan died, he guessed that I was from Dali, so it was only a matter of time before he knew my identity. Although I don't know why he asked to see me, I have nothing to say to him. I have already got the antidote I wanted and saved my brother, and he killed He Xiaowan as he wished. It's just a matter of profit. Now that I'm back, why should I go to him?"

Xie Yunsong agreed, "Ayuan is right. No matter what he is planning, if Ayuan doesn't go to see him, he won't be able to carry out all his schemes."

Bai Zhiyuan glanced at him and said, "That's right."

She turned her head and looked at Bai Tingxuan and said, "Father, just refuse directly. Just say, 'The status of the Princess of Rong'an in Dali and the Emperor of Nanman is different, and it is really inappropriate for them to meet.' Don't pay any more attention to him. He can kill the person who has supported you for many years. No matter what he wants, we don't have to pay attention to him."

Hearing this, Bai Tingxuan nodded and said, "Ayuan is right. I will ask someone to reject him right away."

After Bai Tingxuan told his subordinates to reject the matter, Bai Zhiyuan pondered for a moment and said, "There is one more thing I need to explain to my father, mother, and brother."

After saying that, Bai Zhiyuan knelt down.

Bai Tingxuan and Princess Duanhui looked at each other, wondering what was so serious.

Bai Qiuze quickly supported Bai Zhiyuan and said, "Sister, just tell me what you want to say. Why do you kneel down so easily?"

Bai Zhiyuan didn't stand up. She glanced at Xie Yunsong and said, "My daughter will soon set off to return to the northern border with General Xie. Please don't blame me, father and mother."

After saying this, she kowtowed deeply to her parents in front of her.

Seeing this, Xie Yunsong, who had been silent the whole time, also knelt down. Bai Tingxuan was startled and wanted to support him, but he waved his hand and said, "Please forgive me, General Bai. I can't bear to see you two separated, but Ayuan and I have the same goal, and recovering the northern border is our common goal, so I will take Ayuan with me."

Princess Duanhui was also reluctant to be separated from her daughter, but she knew that her daughter was grown up and this time she must want to go on her own. As a parent, she could only support her daughter in doing what she wanted to do.

She stepped forward to help Bai Zhiyuan up, and then helped Xie Yunsong up, saying, "Ayuan, don't worry. Everything is fine in the South Territory now, and we are all fine too. You have things you want to do, so go ahead boldly. Mother will always support you."

Bai Zhiyuan's eyes were hot and he couldn't help but choke up and said, "Thank you, mother."

Bai Tingxuan was also reluctant to say: "Father knew you would leave a long time ago. Before, you always insisted on coming to the Southern Territory, but when you really came, you wanted to leave again."

Then he waved his hand and said, "It's true that a girl can't be kept when she grows up. Go and retake the northern border as soon as possible. We'll meet in the capital."

Bai Qiuze was also reluctant to leave and asked, "When will my sister leave?"

Bai Zhiyuan replied: "Just one or two days."

Bai Qiuze: "So urgent? Can't you stay a few more days?"

Bai Zhiyuan said: "General Xie has been away from the Northern Territory for half a year. We really can't delay any longer."

Bai Tingxuan was also a general, so he knew that a general could not leave for a long time, so he said, "It has indeed been a long time. This time, it was also thanks to General Xie's great help that it was so smooth. You and Ayuan can go now. When we recover the southern and northern borders and restore peace to the world, we will meet in the capital."

Xie Yunsong clasped his fists and said, "Okay!"

Bai Tingxuan patted his shoulder again and said, "Xie Yu gave birth to a good son. I leave Ayuan to you, you must protect her well."

Xie Yunsong nodded and said solemnly: "General Bai, don't worry."

Bai Qiuze also said: "Take good care of my sister. If I find out that you bully her, I will not let you go even if I can't beat you."

Bai Zhiyuan chuckled and felt warm in his heart.
