Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince

The next morning, it was just getting light.

Xie Yunsong had his men ready horses early, and went to the homes of the people suffering from the plague with Master Qingyi and the doctors sent by the Imperial Hospital. As the source of the plague had not yet been found, Xie Yunsong did not agree to let Bai Zhiyuan follow, so Bai Zhiyuan had to stay alone in the Liuzhou County Office.

Bai Zhiyuan woke up early in the morning and thought carefully about the cause of the plague outbreak in his previous life, but he could not remember anything.

When the plague hit in her previous life, she was running around for her father's imprisonment. Later, Qi Zeyi told her that as long as she helped him to quell the plague, she could plead for her father in front of the emperor and save her father's life. She went to ask her master for the prescription, and went to Liuzhou with Qi Zeyi to treat the patients. Later, the plague gradually subsided, and she missed her father so much that she returned to Shangjing before the plague was completely over. Unfortunately, after she returned, she learned that her father had been executed and her mother was critically ill and passed away a few days later. Bai Zhiyuan fell seriously ill because of this, and when she recovered from the illness, the plague had already been settled.

It was only later, when Qi Zeyi was drunk and mentioned the plague to her, that she learned that Liu Huaisu, the then governor of Liuzhou, had become the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple for his contribution to quelling the plague. Bai Zhiyuan then learned from Qi Zeyi that there had been an incident of arson in Liuzhou at that time.

In this life, everything is different. Qi Zeyi did not fight to come to Liuzhou, but Xie Yunsong came. In the previous life, the master only gave the prescription, but in this life, the master came to Liuzhou in person. So, the master should not die in this life, and Liuzhou prefect Liu Huaisu will never have a chance to come forward. As for Qi Zeyi, he will definitely get his retribution.

Bai Zhiyuan pondered for a long time alone, and finally picked up the Baihong Sword, rode out of the door, and went straight to the ruins.

At the same time, Master Qingyi and Xie Yunsong arrived at the patient's home. Even though Xie Yunsong had been fighting outside for many years and was used to seeing birth, aging, illness and death, he was still surprised.

I saw that all seven members of the family had been infected with the plague. However, there was no one to diagnose and treat them, and there was no medicine available. The family was even unable to get out of bed because of the illness. There was no food at home, and the crying of the child in the arms gradually became weaker and weaker. He was almost starved to death.

This situation is not limited to one family, but occurs in almost every household infected with the virus. No one is there to treat them, and they either die of illness or starve to death.

Xie Yunsong was shocked and angry. He quickly ordered Lu Zhiling to distribute the existing food and grass in Liuzhou to every household of the disaster victims who had no food, and to make further distribution after the troops escorting the food and grass arrived.

Master Qingyi, together with the imperial physician sent by the hospital, ordered people to boil the medicine in the previous prescription and give it to the seriously ill patients. Then he personally diagnosed and treated the patients who had been suffering from illness for many days. However, there were not enough herbs and many patients, so they could only relieve the symptoms for the time being, but could not completely cure them.

Xie Yunsong ordered Lu Zhiling, "Deputy General, quickly send someone to pick up the troops transporting food and herbs. Have them move forward at full speed and make sure they get the food and herbs to Liuzhou as soon as possible."

Lu Zhiling took the order and quickly sent a team of people to support them.

They were busy with the treatment here, and at this time Bai Zhiyuan arrived at the ruins.

Just as he was about to go in to check, he unexpectedly found Liu Huaisu, the prefect of Liuzhou, there.

When Liu Huaisu saw Bai Zhiyuan coming alone, murderous intent flashed across his eyes. "Miss Bai, the plague is serious in Liuzhou City right now. Please return to the county government as soon as possible. If Miss Bai is unfortunately infected, how can I face General Bai?"

Bai Zhiyuan's eyes sank slightly. "Why didn't Governor Liu follow General Yunhui to treat the patients? Why did he stay in a ruin? Could it be that this ruin has another name?"

Liu Huaisu's eyes instantly turned cold. "Miss Bai, be careful with your words. I respect General Da as a person, so I told you to go back quickly. If you insist on going against me, don't blame me for being disrespectful to you, Miss Bai."

After saying this, he waved his hand, and the people behind Liu Huaisu put their hands on their swords and were about to draw their swords against him.

Bai Zhiyuan's face darkened, his eyes were cold, and he spoke in a cold voice, "Liu Huaisu, I never thought that Dali would have such an arrogant and domineering local official like you. Today I want to go into the ruins and take a look. I am the daughter of the great General Weiyuan, what can you do to me?"

Liu Huaisu's face was filled with murderous intent. "Since Miss Bai refuses to accept my toast, don't blame me. You will never leave here alive today."

After saying that, he waved his hand, and the guards behind him drew their swords and rushed towards Bai Zhiyuan.

Bai Zhiyuan sneered and said, "Then it depends on whether you have the ability to do it."

After saying this, Bai Zhiyuan leaped off her horse, drew her sword, and swung it deftly and confidently, knocking down the incoming swords and knives. Her figure was light and quick as lightning, and the swords in her hands flashed and clashed with each other. In an instant, the guards who were rushing towards her fell to the ground one after another.

Bai Zhiyuan stood steadily, his robes fluttering in the wind, holding the Baihong sword, and with a fierce murderous aura, he walked step by step towards the stunned Liu Huaisu.

Bai Zhiyuan looked calm, with a pair of clear eyes that were bottomless and revealed a bit of murderous intent. She pointed her sword directly at Liu Huaisu and said in a stern voice, "Liu Huaisu, you are so brave."

Liu Huaisu's expression changed, and he stared at Bai Zhiyuan viciously, "As expected of you, the daughter of General Weiyuan. I actually underestimated your strength."

Bai Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Let me guess, Governor Liu personally brought people to guard this ruin. Is there some unspeakable secret here? The biggest problem in Liuzhou right now is the plague, and there is a fire here. I am afraid that you set fire to those sick people to cover up the plague."

Liu Huaisu paused, narrowed his eyes and said, "Miss Bai is indeed very smart, what a pity."

Bai Zhiyuan was about to speak when he saw Liu Huaisu suddenly look up and wave his hand, and a troop of soldiers emerged from the ruins.

Bai Zhiyuan was shocked, "You actually raised soldiers privately, this is so rebellious."

Something flashed through Bai Zhiyuan's mind, and she suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Qi Zeyi had saved Liu Huaisu in his previous life, not only for his status as the prefect of Liuzhou, but also for his privately-raised army. In his previous life, after she left, he must have discovered Liu Huaisu's secret and used it to threaten him, making Liu Huaisu and his army work for him.

It turned out to be the case.

Before Bai Zhiyuan could react, a large number of guards had already drawn their swords and rushed forward. Liu Huaisu shouted, "Kill her for me."

Bai Zhiyuan was about to draw her sword to fight back when she heard a rapid sound of horse hooves. She turned around and saw a group of people coming towards her from afar. In the front was her brother Bai Qiuze and General Xie Yunsong of Yunhui.

Liu Huaisu also saw who was coming, was startled, and hurriedly mounted his horse and fled.

Seeing this, Bai Zhiyuan immediately jumped on his horse and was about to give chase.

"Miss Bai, wait a minute." Xie Yunsong said loudly.

Bai Qiuze had already ridden his horse to Bai Zhiyuan's side, "Sister, are you injured?"

Bai Zhiyuan hurriedly said, "I'm fine. Brother, let's chase him quickly. We can't let him escape."

Xie Yunsong said quickly: "Deputy General Lu, take a team of people and chase him. Bring him back as soon as possible."

Lu Zhiling quickly took the order and waved his hand, and a team of people followed and galloped away.

Xie Yunsong then turned around and looked at Bai Zhiyuan. "I didn't know Miss Bai's martial arts were so advanced. Before we set out, Miss Bai promised to obey me. I didn't know when she let Miss Bai come here alone to check."

Hearing this, Bai Zhiyuan dodged his gaze and said in a flattering tone, "The incident happened suddenly. I was also worried that Liu Huaisu would destroy the evidence, but who knew I would meet him here. This Liu Huaisu is really brave. Thanks to General Xie for coming in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. General Xie is really brave. When Liu Huaisu saw you, he immediately fled..."

Xie Yunsong glanced at Bai Zhiyuan with a half-smile, and raised his eyebrows, "Miss Bai, why don't you hurry up and leave? Do you still want to go out privately?"

Bai Zhiyuan's heart skipped a beat when he was stared at, and he flattered her, "Let's go, let's go now..."

After saying that, he quickly turned his horse around, fearing that Xie Yunsong would bring this up again in the next second.

Seeing this, Xie Yunsong smiled. Then he waved his hand and led everyone to the Liuzhou County Government Office.
