Zheng Xiao Mistake: The Mistake of Rebirth Provoked the Cold Master

The coarse wind blew with dry sand, and the sunlight on the body was completely warm, yet it made people feel like they were being burned.

An ox cart was pulling half a load of dry grass, moving very fast, raising a cloud of dust along the way.

The dazzling white light flickered, and the thin eyelids were blood red. The person in the pile of dry grass had trembling eyelashes and slowly opened his eyes.

Zhu Zheng felt as if his entire body was filled with lead, and he felt a heavy dull sensation in every part of his limbs. The ox cart was shaking violently, and what came into view were countless straight dead trees, like giant thorns piercing the sky, rapidly moving backwards.

Where is this...

The driver had his back to her. He looked to be a teenager with unkempt hair and was wearing a khaki cotton robe.

Zhu Zheng did not dare to act rashly. She moved her eyes cautiously, anxious to find out the current situation.

Her last memory was of her wearing a red wedding dress and lying on the river bank waiting to die.

At this moment, she took a look at her body. She had changed her clothes and it was also a khaki cotton robe, which was extremely loose and didn't fit her well.

He moved his shoulder again, and although it was a little slow, there was no obvious tearing feeling from the fresh wound.

The unfamiliar attire and the unfamiliar environment made Zhu Zheng's heart tremble slightly, and an absurd idea popped up in his mind.

Could it be that I was reborn again...

No, if she was reborn, she should wake up in a place she was familiar with.

In her two lifetimes combined, she couldn't even remember where she had been taken by the ox cart...

Could it be that she was reincarnated?

Zhu Zheng couldn't even be sure if she was still Zhu Zheng. There was no mirror around to check her appearance, so she had to look somewhere else.

She stretched out her hands, which were covered with a layer of blood scabs that had formed a thin black crust. She was also wrapped in a blanket with various patterns, and her original color could not be seen.

The pile of dry grass gave off a strange, fishy smell. She turned her head and saw a bloody bull's head under her head. She was so scared that she sat up suddenly.

The young man who was driving heard the noise, looked back, and was stunned, as if he had seen a ghost.

"Brother Qin! She, she, she she she woke up!"

The ox cart came to an abrupt stop.

Zhu Zheng then discovered that there was not just one ox cart, but more than ten side by side, forming a convoy loaded with different goods.

A tall man jumped out of the leading car. He looked fierce and had a long knife in his hand. He was probably the "Brother Qin" that the young man driving the car called.

Zhu Zheng looked around warily. All the people were strangers, all armed with swords, guns, sticks and clubs. She spoke in a hoarse voice, "Who are you..."

No one paid any attention to her. A few people whispered something to each other. Zhu Zheng pricked up her ears to listen, but found that she could not understand anything.

After saying that, the man called Brother Qin looked at Zhu Zheng and approached her with a knife. Several people followed behind him and surrounded her.

Zhu Zheng's hair stood on end. He pulled out the blanket from under him, pulled up the four corners to cover them from head to toe, rolled over, jumped out of the car and ran away.

It was not easy to spread my legs. Once they touched the ground, my legs felt so weak that I almost fell flat on my face.

The boy on the ox cart was startled and shouted, "How could she run away!"

Zhu Zheng didn't dare to stop for long. She encouraged her sore legs while heading into the woods behind the car.

Several people covered by the blanket quickly broke free and chased after him. Zhu Zheng was too weak and didn't run far before her vision went dark.

Just as she was desperately waiting to be captured, she suddenly saw a cavalry team in the woods.

The leader of the team was Xuan Qing Chong Jia, a man she had never expected to see here, a person she was only half-acquainted with.

Before Zhu Zheng could say anything, Brother Qin behind her had already caught up with his men. The imagined scene of pinning her to the ground did not happen. Instead, he went to report to the people on horseback first.

"Major General, the person is awake."

Zhu Zheng looked at the two of them with a confused look on her face.

The first thing that confused him was that they were actually in the same group, and the second thing was that Brother Qin didn't call him "Prince Wen."

Yes, this half-familiar person is the elder brother of Wen Boqiu from the Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion. His name is quite strange, and he is even stranger.

Wen Fenghan.

Zhu Zheng pondered for a moment. When Wen Fenghan was in Shengjing, he was mostly called "Prince" according to his family background, but he later took over the position of the Duke of Zhenguo in guarding the border, so in the barracks he should indeed be called "Major General" according to his military rank.

So, we are in the military camp now.

The military camp that Wen Fenghan is affiliated with is in...

Zhu Zheng's mind was racing, but she seemed a little dazed. She looked up and murmured, "Is this Chixi?"

The young man driving the ox cart answered, "Yes, this is Chixi, and we are passing by the Yellow Zhangzi Forest."

Command the West.

The Great Wilderness is thousands of miles away from Shengjing.

Zhu Zheng couldn't figure out how she got here. Maybe she was spotted by Prince Wen who was passing by on the riverbank and he saved her life.

She was naturally grateful for saving her life from a desperate situation.

But why did he bring her to Chixi?

He sent her back to Zhu Mansion, or dropped her off at any medical clinic, leaving a few words behind. She would definitely go to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to express her gratitude one day.

Wen Fenghan told the others to disperse and glanced at Zhu Zheng. "You can run so far right after waking up. It seems you don't need to take a car."

After a moment, a red horse came from behind the horse team. Wen Fenghan saw Zhu Zheng still standing there in a daze, and said coldly, "Get on the horse."

Zhu Zheng finally came back to her senses and asked anxiously in a hoarse voice, "Prince Wen, no, Major General, why am I... here?"

Of course it was great to meet someone she knew, which meant she was still alive and well, and the absurd idea of ​​being reborn just now also dissipated a little.

It didn't matter if he was in Chixi. Maybe he was just in a hurry to get on the road. As long as she found out what happened, she would be able to go home soon.

Rong Yan... Rong Yan was still waiting for her at home.

He must be terribly worried.

Zhu Zheng looked flustered, expecting Wen Fenghan to give her an answer.

"Get on the horse." Wen Fenghan did not answer, but said with a cold look on his face, "Don't delay the progress of the team."

There is a long scar across Wen Fenghan's face. He was known as the "fierce-faced little general" when he was young. Now he does not hide the violence he has cultivated on the battlefields of the frontier. It is obvious that he is not a person who is easy to get along with.

Although she didn't know where to go, seeing that everyone was ready and waiting for her, Zhu Zheng had no choice but to climb on the horse first.

The majestic wind and smoke rolled in from the horizon. The sun in the west was very strange. Although it was not hot, it was extremely scorching and people could not open their eyes.

Zhu Zheng was already exhausted, her cheeks were red from the sun, and her lips were cracked like the shells of dried lychees. She lay on the horse's back and let the horse carry her half-dead.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the team finally stopped and regrouped by a stream.

Zhu Zheng had not eaten or drunk anything and was extremely hungry. When she saw the clear stream water, she forced herself to perk up, picked up a leaf, scooped up the water and was about to drink it.

Wen Fenghan threw a stone to knock away her leaves and said sternly, "You dare to drink the water from downstream? You think you have too much life."

Zhu Zheng's cracked lips were almost bloodless. She sat by the stream and said listlessly, "I'm really thirsty..."

There were several big trees beside the stream, casting comfortable shade. Most of the other people in the team sat around the trees, taking out the water and dry food they had on them and eating them.

Only Zhu Zheng sat by the stream, looking out of place.

Wen Fenghan looked at her like a dried pickle, and finally remembered something, and threw her a cowhide pot and a red deerskin hat.

Zhu Zheng took it. The pot was filled with porridge. She held the pot and drank it in big gulps. The brim of the deerskin hat was very wide, clean and soft. It almost covered most of her face. She could open her eyes at least, and she finally looked a little more alive.

"Thank you," she said gratefully.

"No need." Wen Fenghan said calmly, "Mother Yan prepared it."

"Yan Niang?" Zhu Zheng was puzzled. "Who is it?"

Wen Fenghan said succinctly, "The doctor who accompanied the army is from the same family as Qin He. He will go to Langguan City to buy medicine for you in the next few days."

Zhu Zheng digested what he said, thinking that her life was saved by this "Yan Niang". Qin He was probably the "Qin Brother" just now. As for this "Lianguan City"...

"Are we going to Langguan City now as well?" she asked.

"Yes."

Zhu Zheng pursed her lips and said, "Is there a post station there? I want to go home."

Wen Fenghan glanced at her and asked, "Where is your home?"

Zhu Zheng: "Shengjing."

Wen Fenghan turned his eyes away and said indifferently, "You can't go back."

This made Zhu Zheng's heart jump, and she blurted out, "Why?"

"A female corpse was salvaged from the Gebai River, along with three tablets of the Zhu family." Wen Fenghan continued, "Everyone in Shengjing thought you were dead."

Zhu Zheng felt as if struck by lightning, and her face instantly turned pale.

What do you mean she is dead? Isn't she here fine?

After being stunned for a long time, Zhu Zheng finally regained her ability to think. It was obvious that someone had deliberately arranged this. Thinking about what would happen to the people who received the news, her mind buzzed and she said in a cryptic voice, "Why... do this?"

Seeing that she was slow to react, Wen Fenghan said bluntly, "You killed someone, so you're a fugitive if you're alive. Do you understand?"
