Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince

"Awish——"

Xie Yunsong was extremely anxious. He picked up Bai Zhiyuan and turned to say, "Let's go back to Puhua Temple tonight. Ayuan's body can't stand the torture right now. Send someone to invite Cheng Beixiao, and then send someone to the Bai Mansion to inform them that Ayuan has been found."

Tianlin accepted the order and said, "Yes!"

Xie Yunsong held Bai Zhiyuan in his arms and jumped on the horse, holding Bai Zhiyuan in his arms, and galloped all the way to Puhua Temple. Now he didn't care whether he would disturb his mother and Princess Yue. Ayuan was unconscious, and he didn't know what was going on. It was still half a day's journey from here to Shangjing, and he couldn't take the risk.

When Xie Yunsong arrived at Puhua Temple, he dismounted from the horse holding Bai Zhiyuan and strode into Puhua Temple.

The young monk guarding the gate of Puhua Temple was very confused. He had not received any news that General Yun Hui was coming, especially in the middle of the night.

But the young monk did not dare to neglect him and hurried to greet him. Xie Yunsong said coldly: "Prepare a guest room and boil some hot water and send it over."

The little monk heard the anxiety in his words and looked up, seeing that General Yun Hui was holding a woman in his arms.

"Go quickly!"

The little monk didn't dare to look around anymore, so he quickly responded and turned around to prepare.

Xie Yunsong held Bai Zhiyuan and put her on the bed, covering her with a blanket. Bai Zhiyuan did not wake up.

Xie Yunsong gently stroked Bai Zhiyuan's cheek. She must have suffered a lot in the past month. She had lost a lot of weight and looked much more haggard. Tonight, she had been running around in the mountains to escape. Only then did Xie Yunsong see that there were small wounds on her face from thorns, and her hands were covered with various scratches.

Xie Yunsong's heart suddenly ached. He felt distressed and guilty towards Bai Zhiyuan. How had she been living for the past month? It took him so long to find her, and she had suffered so much in vain.

Xie Yunsong held Bai Zhiyuan's hand, her hand was icy cold, Xie Yunsong kissed Bai Zhiyuan's eyes. For more than a month, he had lost his appetite and searched everywhere for Ayuan's whereabouts. God had a good eye, and Ayuan finally returned to his side.

Xie Yunsong stared at Bai Zhiyuan without blinking, afraid that she would disappear from his sight again.

It was not until there was a hurried knock on the door that Xie Yunsong let go of Bai Zhiyuan's hand and covered the corner of the quilt for her. Then he reluctantly turned his gaze away from Bai Zhiyuan's face and turned to open the door.

Standing in front of the door was Princess He Yue who had come here after hearing the news. She had an anxious look on her face and her clothes were a little messy. It was obvious that she had received the news while she was sleeping and rushed here.

As soon as Xie Yunsong opened the door, Princess Heyue said, "Song'er, I heard that you found Ayuan. How is she?"

Xie Yunsong welcomed Princess He Yue in and said, "Ayuan is unconscious now. I have sent someone to pick up Cheng Beixiao. We will know what happened to her after Cheng Beixiao takes her pulse."

Princess He Yue breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Amitabha, may the heaven have mercy on me. I didn't expect that Ayuan had been so close to me all this time. I heard from Tianlin that you found her not far from Puhua Temple."

Xie Yunsong nodded and said, "Yes! In the past month, we have searched almost every corner of Shangjing, and we have also sent people outside the city to look for her, but no one expected that Ayuan was in a small courtyard not far from Puhua Temple. If Ayuan hadn't set the fire tonight, I'm afraid I wouldn't have found her."

Princess He Yue glanced at the unconscious Bai Zhiyuan and said, "Fortunately, Ayuan is back. Song'er, you must take good care of Ayuan from now on."

Xie Yunsong agreed, "Of course. Mother, it's midnight now, you should go back and have some rest, and come back to visit Ayuan tomorrow morning."

Princess He Yue nodded and agreed, "Okay, if Ayuan wakes up, you must send someone to tell me."

Xie Yunsong: "Don't worry!" Then he sent Princess He Yue out.

After seeing Princess He Yue off, Xie Yunsong sat in front of the bed again, holding Bai Zhiyuan's hand tightly, looking at Bai Zhiyuan without blinking.

When the young monk from Puhua Temple brought hot water, Xie Yunsong drew some hot water, soaked a handkerchief, and gently washed Bai Zhiyuan's face as if it were a treasure.

Bai Zhiyuan still didn't wake up until the sky was getting brighter. Xie Yunsong stayed awake all night, watching Bai Zhiyuan quietly, the worry in his eyes was so thick that it couldn't be dispelled.

When the sky was bright, Tianlin knocked on the door and said, "Master, Master Cheng is here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Yunsong had already opened the door.

Before Cheng Beixiao could speak, Xie Yunsong said, "Come in!"

Cheng Beixiao had been traveling all night, and his face was full of fatigue. He asked, "What's going on? Sister Bai hasn't woken up yet?"

Xie Yunsong nodded, Cheng Beixiao took out the medicine box and had already taken Bai Zhiyuan's pulse.

After a moment, Cheng Beixiao withdrew his hand and said, "Sister Bai was poisoned. She must have been taking a drug that makes people lose all their strength and powerlessness since she was kidnapped. But Sister Bai must have taken some tonics that were not very effective, and she also deliberately reduced the dosage, so her martial arts skills have recovered a little and her physical strength has also been saved. But last night was too thrilling, and she was emotionally tense, so she fell into a coma."

Xie Yunsong frowned and said, "Just tell me how to detoxify?"

Cheng Beixiao: "It's not difficult to detoxify. I'll write a prescription. But some medicines are hard to find in this place. When Sister Bai wakes up, we should return to Shangjing as soon as possible. She needs to take good care of her body for a while."

Xie Yunsong: "You mean she's fine? Then why hasn't she woken up yet?"

Cheng Beixiao put away the medicine box and said, "Don't worry, I'll give her a few injections and she'll wake up. When she wakes up, we should rush back to Shangjing as soon as possible so that we can better treat her body."

Xie Yunsong nodded in agreement.

Cheng Beixiao took out a silver needle and pierced Bai Zhiyuan's arm a few times. Bai Zhiyuan frowned when he felt a slight pain. When Cheng Beixiao put away the silver needle, Bai Zhiyuan finally opened his eyes slowly.

She had just opened her eyes and was still a little confused. When her thoughts gradually came back to her, she sat up suddenly, only to see Xie Yunsong standing beside her with a worried look on his face.

Bai Zhiyuan's nose was sore and she started to cry. Xie Yunsong quickly hugged her and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, Ayuan, you are back. You have suffered a lot during this period."

Bai Zhiyuan leaned in his arms, smelling the familiar scent on him, and felt much more at ease. He asked in a hoarse voice, "Is this Puhua Temple?"

Xie Yunsong said, "That's right. After I found you last night, you were unconscious. I was afraid that the long journey would be bad for you, so I stayed here first."

Bai Zhiyuan suddenly thought of something and said, "Xie Yunsong, we should set off back to Shangjing now. The King of Yan is about to take action!"

Xie Yunsong and Cheng Beixiao were both shocked and asked, "Is the news reliable?"

Bai Zhiyuan: "Yesterday Jiang Muyun came all the way from Shangjing to see me, saying that he couldn't let me ruin the King of Yan's plan. I think he will take action in the next few days."

Xie Yunsong thought for a moment and said, "Okay, we'll go back right away, but your body...?"

Bai Zhiyuan said hurriedly: "I'm fine, I just took a drug that made me weak, I just need to recuperate, Master Cheng is still here, don't worry."

Xie Yunsong then said, "Okay, Tianlin, go find a carriage and we'll set off immediately."

Tianlin agreed and turned to go out.

Cheng Beixiao was quite perceptive. He knew that the two of them hadn't seen each other for such a long time and must have a lot of personal things to talk about, so he said, "I'll go see what herbs there are in the temple and boil a bowl for Sister Bai to help her recover her strength."

After saying this, he wisely turned around and left.

Xie Yunsong still held Bai Zhiyuan tightly. Bai Zhiyuan felt his steady heartbeat, and then she felt real. She was really back. During these days of house arrest, she often had such dreams. In the dream, Xie Yunsong was still by her side, but when she woke up, it was empty.

Now that he was really back, it felt unreal. Bai Zhiyuan raised his head in Xie Yunsong's arms, stroked his face, and said, "Xie Yunsong, I really miss you."

Hearing this, Xie Yunsong's heart softened. He hugged her tightly, kissed her on the forehead, and said, "Me too. I've been restless day and night. I don't know if you're safe or if you've suffered. My heart aches when I think about it. Ah Yuan, I'm sorry. I didn't take good care of you and let you suffer this."

Bai Zhiyuan shook his head: "Don't blame you, I was careless. By the way, have you found Qi Shuyue?"

Xie Yunsong: "There has been no news from her since you disappeared."

Bai Zhiyuan: "I was knocked unconscious, and when I woke up I was in that small courtyard. I had lost all my martial arts skills, and there were more than a dozen martial arts masters watching me. Thanks to a maid, I was able to escape. I wonder what happened to that maid?"

Xie Yunsong frowned and said, "The maid you are talking about must have been burned to death, along with Jiang Muyun."

Bai Zhiyuan's heart skipped a beat and she said, "The maid's greatest wish in this life is revenge. I will definitely fulfill her wish and repay her for saving me."

Xie Yunsong kissed the top of her head and said, "Whatever you want to do, I will support you."

The two hugged each other tightly for a while until Tianlin found the carriage, and then they prepared to leave.
