Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince

When Xie Yunsong learned the news, he hurried back to the mansion. Ling Xiao tearfully reported to him what had happened that day.

Xie Yunsong's face was gloomy and he clenched his fists. All along, he and Ayuan had neglected the people around them, which was why Ayuan fell into Qi Shuyue's trap today. But when did Qi Shuyue develop such thoughts about them?

Xie Yunsong didn't know that all he could do now was to gather all the people and try his best to track down Bai Zhiyuan's whereabouts.

Bai Tingxuan and Prince Jingyang had just seen Bai Zhiyuan off, and not long after, they heard a servant coming to report: "Master, Prince..." He hesitated and his tone suddenly paused. Everyone knew that General Weiyuan loved his daughter the most. How terrible it would be if they heard this news.

Bai Tingxuan glanced at him, his tone sank, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Bai Tingxuan stayed in the military camp all year round, and his majesty was self-evident. The servant trembled and immediately said, "The young lady was abducted in the chaos of thugs in the west street of the city today, and her whereabouts are still unknown."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Bai Tingxuan suddenly stand up, his expression changed drastically, and his tone trembled slightly: "What did you say?"

The servant was still hesitating whether to repeat what he had just said. King Jingyang beside him also changed his expression and asked, "What?"

Bai Qiuze couldn't hold his temper anymore. He suddenly stood up and strode out of the house like a gust of wind.

By the time Bai Tingxuan, Bai Qiuze and King Jingyang arrived at Xie's house, Xie Yunsong had already led people to look for him.

Bai Tingxuan asked Ling Xiao in detail about what happened that day and learned that it was Qi Shuyue who poisoned Bai Zhiyuan, which made Bai Zhiyuan unable to resist.

King Jingyang took two steps back suddenly. He was so foolish that he did not realize that his granddaughter had turned her back on them, which led to Ayuan suffering this misfortune.

Without time to think about it, Bai Tingxuan could only appease King Jingyang and ask him to wait for news here. He and Bai Qiuze rode on horses and went out to look for people to see if they could find any clues.

But King Jingyang couldn't stay there, so he followed them out to look for someone.

On this day, many people in the capital were in a state of panic. The news that Princess Rong'an, now the wife of General Yun Hui, had been abducted spread like wildfire, and everyone in the capital was discussing the matter.

The lights in Xie's mansion were on all night long. The servants dared not make a sound. Everyone had a worried look on their face. No one knew what had happened to the young lady since she was abducted.

The lights were on in the study. Xie Yunsong had just returned. After searching for Bai Zhiyuan in vain, he sat dejectedly at the table in the study. Sitting in front of him were Bai Tingxuan and Bai Qiuze, who had also just returned.

Bai Qiuze: "With Ayuan's kung fu, no one can easily kidnap her. I was so careless that I didn't realize that Qi Shuyue..."

Bai Tingxuan sighed and said, "I didn't let her go back to Wudu at the beginning. I kept her here, but I didn't expect that she would cause trouble."

King Jingyang said with an old face: "I don't know Yue'er...but why did she do this?"

Xie Yunsong: "If it weren't for her, how could Ayuan not be on guard? It is precisely because he regards her as a relative that Ayuan fell into her trap."

Bai Tingxuan clenched his fist and said, "I have sent out all the people I can to search for Ayuan's whereabouts. I hope there will be good news tomorrow."

Bai Qiuze also suppressed his worries and said, "Yes, my sister has always been smart. Even in this situation, she will definitely find a way to leave us clues."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone immediately agreed. Bai Zhiyuan has always been smart, and he fell into the trap this time because he trusted Qi Shuyue too much. As long as she had a way, she would definitely find ways to leave clues for them.

As for who was behind today's incident, everyone has an answer in their hearts, but now there is no evidence, and if they come to his house to demand the release of the person, how can he admit it?

Bai Tingxuan and the others went back to wait for news, leaving Xie Yunsong sitting alone at the desk. The soft light could not melt the indifference on his face in the slightest. He was filled with infinite regret. If he had accompanied Bai Zhiyuan back to Bai Mansion this morning, would she not have suffered such a disaster? As a husband, he did not realize that she was in danger, and failed to protect her as he promised.

He closed his eyes, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, revealing a tired look.

The next moment, Steward Lin pushed the door open and saw him sitting motionless at the table. He consoled him, "Master, go and have a rest first. If the Madam comes back and sees you like this, she will be so distressed."

Xie Yunsong remained unmoved. Steward Lin sighed, stopped trying to persuade him, put down the food in his hand, and slowly walked out.

When Bai Zhiyuan woke up again, it was already dark. This was a small room that looked a bit old, as if it was not often lived in. A woman who looked like a maid stood beside her, adding food to the table. When she saw that she woke up, she didn't say anything, but quickly put the food away and left quickly.

Bai Zhiyuan looked around but didn't see Qi Shuyue. She was secretly annoyed at herself for being so careless. She didn't even notice that Qi Shuyue had been out frequently during this period. With her experience in her previous life, she was always wary of people, but she never doubted her family. However, she didn't expect that her trust would be exchanged for Qi Shuyue's calculations against her.

Bai Zhiyuan thought about it for a while and knew that the person who kidnapped her must be King Yan Qi Zeyi. As for Qi Shuyue, she must have fallen in love with King Yan when she first met him. At that time, she thought she had analyzed the situation clearly and told Qi Shuyue that she would not have any improper thoughts about King Yan. However, she did not expect that the two of them had been together without knowing when, which led to her being in such a passive situation today.

Bai Zhiyuan tried her best, but found that she had no strength at all. Maybe they were afraid that she would escape, so they gave her a drug that would make a person lose all strength. Now she was just an ordinary person with no martial arts skills, and she might not even be able to lift a sword.

Bai Zhiyuan stood up and looked out through the window. It was pitch black outside and she couldn't see anything clearly. She felt a little discouraged and felt at a loss for the first time since her rebirth.

But she quickly adjusted herself. Xie Yunsong and her father must have known that she was missing, and they must be very anxious at the moment. She must find a way to give them a signal so that they can find her as soon as possible.

Bai Zhiyuan lowered his eyes, thinking that the situation in the capital must be in turmoil now.

She didn't know where this place was. She thought about it carefully in her mind, but she didn't remember that Qi Zeyi had such a secret base in her previous life. She would wait until tomorrow in broad daylight to take a closer look.

But no one has found her yet, which means the place she is in is extremely secluded.

Bai Zhiyuan walked to the window again, opened it and looked out. It was dark outside and very quiet. It seemed far away from Shangjing. She thought for a moment and opened the door. It was actually open. But as soon as she walked out, dozens of martial arts masters appeared in front of her and blocked her way.

Bai Zhiyuan knew that this was an attempt to put her under house arrest. She could do nothing now, nor did she have to do anything. She could only wait for Qi Zeyi to come to her in person. Since he had kidnapped her, he would show up sooner or later.

But, what did Qi Zeyi want to do by kidnapping her? Was he trying to use her as a bargaining chip to make a deal with Xie Yunsong? Or did he want to take advantage of her absence to start his move in Shangjing?

As Bai Zhiyuan was thinking, she suddenly felt hungry. She felt weak all over and very tired.

She walked to the table, where there were some porridge and side dishes. She picked up the bowl and slowly started to eat. Qi Zeyi kept her around for a reason, so there was definitely no poison in the food.

After finishing her meal, Bai Zhiyuan leaned back on the cushion to rest. The maid came in to clean up the food, looking at her warily while doing so.

Perhaps Qi Zeyi had told her in advance that he knew she was cunning, so he told her to keep a close eye on him.

After the maid left, Bai Zhiyuan sat quietly for a while. Her only plan now was to take good care of her body, recover her martial arts as soon as possible, and act according to circumstances, so as to protect herself and escape as soon as possible.
