Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince Chapter 243 Retribution

The cold wind continued to howl in the winter night, but Bai Zhiyuan did not feel the cold at all in Xie Yunsong's arms.

After a while, Xie Yunsong finally moved slightly, slowly let go of her, grabbed her hand instead, and strode out with her.

Tianlin and Tianxun also put out the sparks on each other's hair and bodies, and quickly followed Xie Yunsong out of the fire scene.

The Queen Mother, the Empress, and everyone else were left staring at each other in bewilderment. The Queen Mother's face could no longer maintain her usual peacefulness, and her eyes were full of gloom.

Only Princess Heyue breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at the Queen Mother and the Queen, and left quietly.

The queen standing not far away didn't look much better, and her face turned very ugly.

Now Bai Zhiyuan is unharmed, but the guard clearly said that there seems to be someone in the room, so who is that person?

The queen looked around but couldn't find any trace of Princess Changle. She couldn't help but panic and subconsciously grabbed the queen mother's arm. The queen mother felt pain and was furious. She said in a stern voice: "Queen, why are you so rude?"

The queen was startled, her face turned pale as paper, and she felt a chill from head to toe. She said in a trembling voice: "Mother, Changle is missing."

When the Queen Mother heard this, her expression suddenly changed, but she still pretended to be calm and said, "Don't make it public. Send someone to look for it somewhere else."

The queen's face was extremely ugly. She grabbed the queen mother tightly, as if this could grasp her backbone, and said: "I sent people to look for her when the fire broke out, but she couldn't be found in the whole temple. Changle has always hated Bai Zhiyuan to the core, will she..."

"Shut up!" the Queen Mother said angrily, then lowered her voice and said, "Don't talk nonsense. You are the mother of a country. You are scared like this by a mere Bai Zhiyuan. Send someone to look for him! Quick!"

After hearing the Queen Mother's harsh voice, the Queen came back to her senses and sent some people to look for Princess Changle's whereabouts.

At the same time, Shen Xiu, the director of the Imperial Hospital, also discovered that his daughter had disappeared. When the fire broke out in the back temple, he immediately sent people to look for his daughter Shen Zhiyi, but to no avail. At this time, he felt more and more uneasy.

Ever since his daughter fell in love with Xie Yunsong, he had punished her and scolded her, but she just wouldn't listen. She went to the northern border alone, enduring the criticism from the whole world, but she remained stubborn.

Dean Shen was both afraid and anxious. He knew that his daughter was very stubborn. When she was driven away from the northern border by Xie Yunsong, he had advised her to give up, but she did not listen. In the end, somehow she went to the northern border again.

Shen Yuanshi has a son and a daughter, and he has been tolerant and loving to his daughter since she was young. He once had a private relationship with Xie Yunsong's father Xie Yu, and he secretly hoped that his daughter and General Yunhui could have a happy ending. But anyone with a discerning eye could see that General Yunhui had no interest in his daughter, but when he looked at Princess Rong'an, his eyes were filled with uncontrollable tenderness.

Shen Xiu was not stupid, on the contrary he was very smart, that's why he could rise so fast in the Imperial Hospital. He thought carefully about the inexplicable fire tonight, why the Queen Mother and the Empress looked strange, why everyone thought at first that the one trapped in the sea of ​​fire was the Princess of Rong'an. He had been an official in the court for quite a while, and soon figured out the twists and turns inside.

His heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the Queen Mother wanted to kill Princess Rong'an tonight? But what role did his daughter play in this?

The more Shen Xiu thought about it, the more frightened he became. He still couldn't find Shen Zhiyi. At this moment, he already believed that his daughter must have been involved in today's incident. Her hatred for Bai Zhiyuan was obvious to everyone, but where was she now?

Just after Xie Yunsong took Bai Zhiyuan away, a while later, accompanied by a sudden gust of wind, the burning rear hall and wing rooms collapsed.

Xie Yunsong didn't ask Bai Zhiyuan anything. He was unusually silent and just stared at Bai Zhiyuan without blinking, fearing that she would disappear like that.

Xie Yunsong and Bai Zhiyuan were riding in the same carriage. In another carriage following behind them, the driver was Tianxun, and sitting inside was Ling Xiao who followed them.

Bai Zhiyuan covered Xie Yunsong's hand and said, "Xie Yunsong, don't you have anything to ask me?"

Xie Yunsong was in a state of confusion. He held her hand with his backhand and said in a hoarse voice, "Ayuan, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have left you today."

Bai Zhiyuan shook his head: "Even if you don't leave, they have plenty of ways to make you leave. After you left, Shen Zhiyi and Princess Changle found me and said that the queen wanted to see me. I immediately became suspicious, but decided to see what they were up to."

Xie Yunsong lowered his eyes and said, "Ayuan, just refuse directly in the future. There is no need to risk yourself."

Bai Zhiyuan said, "If I don't go, they will definitely think of other ways to deal with me. I might as well take advantage of their tricks."

Xie Yunsong sighed: "You, you..."

Bai Zhiyuan chuckled and leaned on his arm. "Look, I'm fine. Shen Zhiyi took me to the wing room where the women of the back temple lived. After I went in, Princess Changle locked the doors and windows from the outside, trying to trap me inside and burn me to death."

"But I saw Shen Zhiyi staring at a window from time to time, and then I realized that Princess Changle was waiting outside. I also learned from Shen Zhiyi that when we were in the northern border, the queen mother threatened the lives of my entire family, so you had to force me to leave. Why didn't you tell me at the time?"

Xie Yunsong was startled, then he took her in his arms and said, "When I received the letter from the Queen Mother, I was angry and scared. I know the Queen Mother. She watched my father die without saving him, and she would definitely do something to your father and brother without hesitation. You once told me about your dream, in which your father and brother died tragically. I can feel that you are so scared and sad just because of a dream. I am afraid that if I insist on my own way and something happens to your father and brother, how should we deal with it?"

Bai Zhiyuan remained silent for a long time. She knew that everything Xie Yunsong said was true. If it were her, she might make the same choice as him.

She buried her head in Xie Yunsong's arms and said in a muffled voice: "I'm sorry, I didn't know you had endured so much..."

Xie Yunsong hugged her tightly, kissed the top of her head, and said, "It's all over. Aren't we all fine now? Fortunately, we are all fine."

Bai Zhiyuan raised his head and said, "Thank you, Xie Yunsong."

Xie Yunsong couldn't help but kiss her lips and said, "What are you thanking me for? I will enter the palace tomorrow. Ah Yuan, I can't wait any longer. I will ask the emperor to grant us a marriage. No matter what the price, I will marry you."

Bai Zhiyuan smiled softly, reached out and hugged him again, her heart full of happiness.

The two people here are enjoying a tender moment, while Puhua Temple is still in chaos.

The monks outside knelt in a group, all asking for forgiveness. The King of Jin remained calm in the face of danger and arranged for people to put out the fire.

When it was almost dawn, the fire was finally put out.

Several maids were burned to death, and two people were carried out from the side rooms. They were the missing Shen Zhiyi and Princess Changle.

Both of them were unrecognizable. Shen Zhiyi was still breathing faintly, but Princess Changle had already become a charred corpse.

When the queen saw her daughter being carried out, her legs went weak and she fell to the ground. Her only daughter was now a cold corpse. The queen could not bear this blow and she cried for a few times before fainting.

Shen Xiu was horrified and could not hide his grief. Madam Shen lay beside her daughter and burst into tears.

The Queen Mother also looked extremely unhappy and almost couldn't stand, but she could only hold on desperately.

She never expected that what she had been so confident about today would develop to the current point.

Bai Zhiyuan knew about this after she returned to Beijing, but she was not too upset. When Shen Zhiyi and Princess Changle wanted to burn her to death, their retribution was destined. Now they are just reaping the fruits of their own actions.
