Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince

Because it was a wedding, Xie Yunsong and Bai Zhiyuan stayed at the mansion these days.

There is nothing to do these days, so I can go back tomorrow.

As soon as Bai Zhiyuan walked out of the courtyard, he saw Ling Xiao and Tian Xun squatting on the ground with a mountain of gifts in front of them.

Bai Zhiyuan asked from behind the two of them: "What are you doing?"

Ling Xiao stood up suddenly, his face flushed, and said, "Miss... No, Madam, I am just taking inventory of the gifts I received in the past few days, please take a look, Madam?"

Bai Zhiyuan didn't believe it, so he looked at Tianxun again and asked, "Then what are you doing?"

Tianxun: "I'm helping Lingxiao."

Bai Zhiyuan stared at the two people in front of her. They felt a little uncomfortable for a moment. She said, "Tianxun, now Ling Xiao has married into the Xie Mansion with me. If you like her, you should seize the opportunity as soon as possible. After all, our Ling Xiao is both beautiful and capable. If you miss it, you will regret it!"

Ling Xiao blushed and said, "Madam..."

Tianxun paused, then as if he had made up his mind, he knelt down and said to Xie Yunsong and Bai Zhiyuan: "Master, Madam, I like Ling Xiao and I want to marry her."

Bai Zhiyuan then smiled and said, "Of course, there is no problem for us, but we still need Ling Xiao's approval."

The three of them looked at Ling Xiao at the same time. Ling Xiao blushed and said angrily, "Who wants to marry him?"

Then he ran away.

Bai Zhiyuan curled his lips and said, "Tianxun, you see, if you want to win the beauty, you still need to work hard!"

Tianxun understood and hurriedly chased after him.

After they left, Bai Zhiyuan looked at the gifts scattered all over the floor, and was a little surprised. He couldn't help but ask, "You haven't been in the capital for many years, and you shouldn't have close contacts with people in the capital. How come you still have so many gifts?"

Xie Yunsong curled his lips and said, "The court is in turmoil right now. I married the daughter of General Weiyuan, the Princess of Rong'an County. People in the court always change their attitudes according to the situation. Naturally, many people will try to curry favor with me."

Bai Zhiyuan understood and said, "My words yesterday may have alerted the emperor. Soon, everything will be settled."

Xie Yunsong nodded, and ordered Tianlin to pick out some precious and rare gifts, saying, "Give these to your father when you return home tomorrow."

Bai Zhiyuan: "My father is just like you. He is a military commander who endures all kinds of hardships while on the road and doesn't care about these material things."

Xie Yunsong: "It's just a token of my appreciation. I took his most beloved daughter away. Shouldn't I compensate him?"

Bai Zhiyuan smiled and said, "That makes sense."

Xie Yunsong stood tall and took Bai Zhiyuan's hand and put their hands together.

These days are a honeymoon for Xie Yunsong and Bai Zhiyuan, but for some people, it is not so pleasant.

In Prince Yan's mansion, Qi Zeyi sat in the study with a gloomy face.

Bai Yu knelt on the ground and reported the news he had learned from the palace in the past few days.

"Your Majesty has not seen anyone in the past few days, even Concubine Rou was turned away."

"Apart from Consort Xian, Your Majesty has only met the newly married General Yunhui and Princess Rong'an in the past few days..."

Qi Zeyi exerted force with his palm, and the cup in his palm shattered. The porcelain pieces of the cup scratched his hand, and blood slowly overflowed from between his fingers, but he seemed unaware of it.

Bai Yu, who was kneeling, didn't dare to breathe. Qi Zeyi's expression was very distorted at this moment. The corners of his mouth were still habitually upturned, but his muscles were shaking uncontrollably. It was obvious that he was very angry.

After a while, Bai Yu finally said, "Your Highness..."

Qi Zeyi finally came back to his senses and said angrily, "My father has been slow to appoint a crown prince, but he is so lenient to Consort Xian. Now there are endless speculations about me in the court, and my father has turned a blind eye to me. This is really not a good thing for me."

Bai Yu: "So what does Your Highness want to do?"

Qi Ze thought for a moment and said, "Send a message to the palace. I want to see my mother."

Bai Yu agreed.

"Also, I asked you to keep an eye on the Xie Mansion. Is there any situation?"

Bai Yu said, "There is nothing special. General Yun Hui and Princess Rong'an were getting married these days. They went to the palace the next day and did not even leave the mansion. As for what happened in the mansion, I am sorry for my incompetence. The Xie Mansion is strictly guarded and our people cannot sneak in."

Qi Zeyi clenched his fists. The image of Bai Zhiyuan in her wedding dress that day kept lingering in his mind. After so many things, he thought he had let go of Bai Zhiyuan, but when he witnessed her and Xie Yunsong getting married that day, the anger and jealousy in his heart almost burned him up. He wished he could go up and take her away at all costs.

In the past few days since he came back, he has lost his appetite. Every day in his dreams he sees Bai Zhiyuan wearing her wedding dress. He really can't accept this.

It was not until he felt a sharp pain in his palm that Qi Zeyi came back to his senses and said, "Keep watching the Xie and Bai mansions, and report to me anytime if there is any situation!"

Bai Yu: “Yes!”

There was a gloomy atmosphere in Prince Yan's Mansion, but there was peace in Xie's Mansion, and everyone had a happy face.

Today is the day Bai Zhiyuan returns home.

Early in the morning, Bai Zhiyuan just opened his eyes from his sleep, and Xie Yunsong was no longer by his side.

Bai Zhiyuan got up from the bed and looked outside, but did not see Xie Yunsong.

Just when she was confused, Ling Xiao came in and helped her get up and wash.

Bai Zhiyuan was wearing a middle-length dress, which was a little disheveled as she had just gotten up. She did not notice the red spots on her neck.

Ling Xiao was sharp-eyed and his face turned red. He quickly looked away and dared not stare at Bai Zhiyuan anymore.

Bai Zhiyuan lowered her head and saw the marks on her body clearly. She coughed lightly and said unnaturally, "Help me find a set of clothes with a higher collar."

Ling Xiao agreed with a red face.

After Ling Xiao left, Bai Zhiyuan cursed Xie Yunsong in his heart.

After washing up, Xie Yunsong came back from outside.

Bai Zhiyuan was wearing a peach pink printed gauze dress today, which made her face look even more rosy.

When Ling Xiao saw Xie Yunsong coming back, he had already retreated tactfully.

Xie Yunsong kissed Bai Zhiyuan on the cheek and said, "I thought you wanted to sleep a little longer today?"

Bai Zhiyuan said with a smile: "I am going back home today. I think my father, mother and brother are waiting for me. I haven't seen them for a few days. I want to go back early."

Xie Yunsong nodded, and the two of them walked out while talking.

When they arrived outside the mansion, Bai Zhiyuan was dumbfounded. There were two carriages full of gifts.

"These……?"

"These are all gifts for my parents-in-law, thanking them for marrying you to me."

Bai Zhiyuan laughed: "People who don't know would think that General Xie is going to move to Bai's house!"

Xie Yunsong: "Wherever Ayuan is, I will be there. If Ayuan wants to stay in Bai Mansion for a longer period of time, I will accompany you."

Bai Zhiyuan chuckled: "If people knew about you doing this, they would probably say that I am a beauty who brings disaster."

Xie Yunsong curled his lips: "Who said it wasn't?"

As the couple was talking, the carriage soon stopped in front of the Bai Mansion.

Bai Tingxuan, Princess Duanhui and Bai Qiuze had already received the news and were waiting in front of the door.

As soon as Bai Zhiyuan got off the carriage, she saw her relatives waiting for her.

Her eyes were a little hot. Xie Yunsong held her hand and she soon started laughing again.

She quickly threw herself into Princess Duanhui's arms, "Mother..."

Princess Duanhui secretly wiped away her tears, then grabbed her and looked at her carefully.

Bai Zhiyuan laughed: "Mom, don't worry, I'm fine."

Bai Tingxuan was beside her and his eyes never left his daughter.

Bai Zhiyuan then hugged Bai Tingxuan's arm and said, "Father!"

Bai Tingxuan nodded at Xie Yunsong and Bai Zhiyuan and said, "Glad that you're back! Let's go! Back to the mansion!"

Only then did Bai Zhiyuan enter the mansion surrounded by the crowd.

Bai Qiuze quietly asked beside her: "Sister, is Xie Yunsong good to you? If he dares to bully you, brother will definitely seek justice for you."

Bai Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I'm fine. He treats me very well. Don't worry, brother."

The family walked into the hall. Bai Tingxuan had already ordered people to prepare the meal. The table was full of Bai Zhiyuan's favorite dishes.

Prince Jingyang had already taken his seat, with Qi Wenjing waiting beside him.

When he saw them come in, he smiled his usual gentle smile.

When Bai Zhiyuan saw King Jingyang, he went up to him and called him affectionately, "Grandfather!"

King Jingyang saw that her face was rosy and knew that she was living very well, so he felt relieved.

Qi Wenjing also smiled and said, "Cousin, I haven't seen you for a few days. You look even more radiant than before."

Bai Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, cousin."

Bai Zhiyuan turned around, but didn't see Qi Shuyue, so he asked, "Where's my cousin?"

Everyone looked at each other.

Prince Jingyang also asked, "Yes, why have we rarely seen Yue'er these days? Wen Jing, what has she been doing these days?"

Qi Wenjing said hurriedly: "Yue'er has been feeling unwell these days and is resting in the house."

Bai Zhiyuan: "Since my cousin is not feeling well, let her rest."

Prince Jingyang was unhappy and said, "What's wrong with her? If she is not feeling well, today is the big day for Ah Yuan to return home, but she is not here to see me. How disgraceful! Someone, call my cousin here!"

No one spoke and they slowly took their seats.

After a while, Qi Shuyue knocked on the door and came in.

King Jingyang looked at her and said, "Yue'er, what's wrong with you?"

Qi Shuyue was startled for a moment, then continued, "It's just a cold, grandfather."

King Jingyang was a little angry and said, "You are so squeamish about a minor illness. Today is your cousin's return home day, how can you be so rude?"

Seeing Qi Shuyue curling her lips, as if she was not convinced, Bai Zhiyuan hurriedly said, "It's okay, Grandfather!"

Then he turned to Qi Shuyue and said, "Cousin, please take a seat. We are waiting for you."

Qi Shuyue snorted softly, and although she was reluctant, she still said, "Congratulations, cousin, on your wedding!"

Bai Zhiyuan smiled, but felt that Qi Shuyue seemed a little hostile to her. However, this cousin had always been somewhat hostile to her, so Bai Zhiyuan didn't think much about it.
