"If you have something to do, you don't have to come with me." An Yan said.

"Get in the car." That's all Li Rongsen said.

An Yan opened the car door and got in, saying, "Do you know the way to West City?"

"I recognize it." Li Rongsen nodded, and then went towards the west city.

The commotion over in West City was not too big, and the old man seemed to want to pretend that nothing had happened. Yan Qingqiu was naturally not too nervous either. They settled the person who would report the news, and then waited for An Yan to make a decision.

An Yan used a little trick to make Li Rongsen's car arrive at the West City faster, and then entered the city and went into the main hall.

The old man sat upright as usual. When he heard footsteps, he raised his eyes and found that it was An Yan who came back. He quickly stood up to greet her and said, "City Lord, you are here quickly."

"What's the situation over there now?" An Yan asked.

Yan Qingqiu was very happy when he saw Li Rongsen, as if the old days had come back again, when he always followed behind An Yan.

"He was attacked from both sides," said the old man.

An Yan frowned, glanced at Yan Qingqiu, and said, "Who else is there besides that woman in the mountains?"

"I think it might be that man." Yan Qingqiu speculated, and reminded, "That woman called him a bastard."

"Oh." An Yan nodded slightly, seeming to understand a little.

"These two people said they wanted to occupy Taiping City. One is inside and the other is outside. They designed to put Bai Yucheng under house arrest. His people secretly came to report the news, saying that they hope you can help." Yan Qingqiu told her.

"Of course I will help."

"You don't have to help. That's their business. It has nothing to do with us in Xicheng." The old man continued.

"How could you just watch someone die without helping?" An Yan didn't believe that the old man was such a cruel person.

The old man stroked his beard and said, "It's a long journey. Everyone will be dead by the time we get there. Besides, there is the Dark Moon Realm. If the Lord of the Dark Moon Realm doesn't intervene, what can we do to help? Water from afar cannot quench a nearby fire."

"The Lord of the Dark Moon Realm will naturally not take action." An Yan knew him very well.

"That's right. He's unwilling to take action even when he's so close to us. Why should we take action?" This is exactly what the old man meant.

"Is there anyone in the city?" Li Rongsen asked.

"Of course there are. There are civilians in Taiping City." Yan Qingqiu said.

"In that case, of course we have to rescue him." Li Rongsen said.

"It's easy for you to say. This is a war, not a joke. We in West City have made a promise to the people in the city that we will never talk about war and will ensure their safety and prosperity. It is naturally impossible to take them to war now." The old man immediately refuted his words.

Li Rongsen frowned, he didn't know the rules here.

An Yan said: "It's not my character to watch someone in danger and not help him."

"What reason do you have to save him? It won't work if you have no legitimate reason to do so," the old man reminded her.

"Not really. I forced Bai Yucheng to be the city lord. Now that he is in trouble, of course I have to help him. I should help him, not to mention that innocent people are involved." An Yan said.

"In that case, he will have to pay tribute to our West City from now on." The old man answered immediately.

"Why take advantage of someone's misfortune?" An Yan thought this was not appropriate.

Yan Qingqiu said: "This is not taking advantage of someone's misfortune. I will naturally protect them in peace in the future. I think Bai Yucheng will agree to it."

"How about this, I'll make plans after I meet Bai Yucheng." The old man had his own little plan, but he refused to say it at the moment.

An Yan didn't think much about it. She said, "What should we do now? Find a few people to go with me, give them generous rewards, and I will protect them."

The old man thought about it and said, "Let me pick a few capable people."

"In my opinion, this matter will ultimately make people unhappy. It would be better to issue a notice, clearly state the reward, and let the people in the city make their own decisions. This way, they will agree to it willingly." Li Rongsen made a suggestion.

The old man looked at Li Rongsen and thought it was a pity for this city slave, as his ideas were always the most practical. But he didn't say anything and just looked at An Yan.

Anyan naturally would not object and said, "That's good, let's do as you say, we'll make some arrangements and then arrange it immediately."

"In that case, I will go and borrow a boat from the Lord of Dark Moon Realm, so that we can go back and forth faster." The old man said, and then said, "I will ask them to make some cakes and other things and send them to him as a thank you gift."

"You are quite close to him." An Yan said with a chuckle.

"It's okay, it's okay. He and I are good friends regardless of age difference." The old man was a little proud.

Yan Qingqiu interrupted at this time and said, "Who of you is older? He might be older than you, but he looks so young."

"Shut up!" the old man sneered at him.

Yan Qingqiu laughed, and then saw the old man began to issue a notice, which was then passed on to everyone in the city.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

An Yan said, "I'll go back to the yard to clean up first, and come back here later." After saying that, she turned around and went inside.

Yan Qingqiu glanced at Li Rongsen and said, "Why don't you go and help?"

"You don't need my help." Li Rongsen replied.

The old man glanced at Li Rongsen, thinking that he really had no intention of being a slave city, and he still had high hopes for him, so he naturally hoped that he and An Yan could get closer, and said, "Go ahead, just in case you need me for anything."

Li Rongsen lowered his eyes, but finally followed.

An Yan only packed up some medicinal herbs. She was afraid that the people there were injured in the battle, so she also took some hidden weapons and other things. She didn't take anything else. She heard footsteps, turned around and saw Li Rongsen walking in. She said, "I don't have anything else to do here. You can go back. You still have things to do."

"I just called Nison and arranged all the work matters." Li Rongsen told her.

"You don't have to go with me. This is a matter concerning West City." An Yan said. She didn't want to take up his time, nor did she want him to get hurt.

Li Rongsen said: "I am willing to help."

"You are not from West City, so you don't have to help. Besides, we have enough manpower here." An Yan mainly didn't want Li Rongsen to be implicated in the past. It's not that she didn't remember that there was a Beichen over there.

Li Rongsen said: "Why can't I help?"

An Yan looked at Li Rongsen because of what he said and found that his face was gloomy, as if the sky was covered with dark clouds. After thinking for a while, he said, "This is a matter of war, and spiritual energy can easily hurt people."

"I'm going to protect Yan Qingqiu. I think he's going with you."

An Yan was so stunned by these words that she couldn't say anything. She chuckled and said, "Okay."

Li Rongsen then secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know why, but he thought the current situation was quite serious. He would be very worried if he didn't go with them, not to mention that he also had some abilities.

"But you must not be too stubborn. Try to avoid trying to break through the barrier forcefully like you did last time. You won't be so lucky every time." An Yan reminded him again.

"I won't do this every time." Li Rongsen replied calmly.

At this time, seeing the old man walk into the room, he first asked: "City Lord, I want to say a few words to Mr. Li."

"Okay." An Yan nodded and sorted out the things in her hands.

"Mr. Li, let's go to your room and have a chat." The old man waved at Li Rongsen and said, "Come, let's go together."

Li Rongsen followed the old man to the room where he was resting, and An Yan just realized that if they had anything to say in private, it couldn't be done in front of her.
