"Mr. Li, please try it. How is it?" The old man only focused on serving Li Rongsen and ignored An Yan.
Li Rongsen looked embarrassed. He simply picked up the two pots and walked into the house, saying, "I'll go to the inner room to eat by myself."
"Hey, why is that?" Meidie looked puzzled and said to the old man, "What good things did you make for him? Why don't you share some with us?"
The old man smiled and said, "That is Mr. Li's exclusive use. No one else can enjoy it."
An Yan also looked helpless, but didn't know what to say.
Yan Qingqiu burst into laughter and couldn't stop laughing.
An Yan looked over at him and said, "That's enough, or I'll kick you out."
"I was just laughing, that's nothing." Yan Qingqiu held back his laughter. In the end, he didn't dare to be unrestrained anymore and just focused on eating the food in front of him.
At this time, a man came running in from outside. He was the guard at the city gate. He said, "Old man, there is a man coming through the city gate. He said it was Bei Feng, but we don't think he is."
An Yan was surprised. She looked towards the old man and heard him say to the guard, "You have seen him before. I personally escorted him out of the city gate during the day. I also gave him a badge. How can you say that?"
"He didn't have a badge, and his face was swollen from being beaten, so he didn't look like a criminal. But he said it was Beifeng who knocked on the city gate in the middle of the night." The guard reported everything.
The old man immediately said to An Yan: "I'll go over and take a look first."
"If it's Beifeng, bring him here." An Yan ordered.
The old man nodded, and then strode away with the guard.
Meidie also put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands and said to An Yan, "I'll go and take a look too." After that, she ran out.
Yan Qingqiu said to An Yan: "She actually cares about that boy."
Li Rongsen came out of the house and asked, "Did something happen?"
An Yan glanced at Li Rongsen and asked him, "While the old man is away, are you eating something?"
"I'm not hungry." Li Rongsen said as he walked closer to An Yan.
An Yan thought about it carefully and said, "I haven't thought about it carefully today. The people in the river area may not be convinced. They will also have complaints about my treatment of Xicheng. After all, no one likes to change the owner."
"What if Beifeng is incompetent and unable to solve the problem for them?" Yan Qingqiu speculated.
"It shouldn't happen. Since he asked to go there, there must be a way. I'm just afraid that group of people think he is a bad guy." An Yan thought this was more likely.
Li Rongsen said: "We'll know in a moment."
The moonlight outside the house was still bright, stretching the shadows of several people very long.
I saw the old man and Mei Die and the others coming back, with two other people supporting a man behind them. His clothes were tattered and his face was beaten like a pig's head, with a bruised nose and swollen face.
Meidie said to Anyan, "It was Beifeng. The people over there bullied him and were not convinced by him. They trapped him there and beat and scolded him during the day. He sneaked out in the dark of night."
An Yan approached Bei Feng and felt his pulse first. She found that he not only had external injuries, but also internal injuries. Several tendons and veins were damaged. It was obvious that those people did not show mercy. She immediately said, "Help him go to the house first. I will go over to treat him in a while."
"Is he seriously injured?" Meidie asked.
"It's a little serious, but it's okay. I can cure him." An Yan signaled her not to worry.
The old man ordered the two men to carry Bei Feng back to his courtyard to rest, and said to An Yan: "City Lord, those people should be taught a lesson. They didn't hurt Bei Feng, but the authority of our West City. They are slapping the City Lord in the face."
"That's true. How can we allow them to be so arrogant?" Yan Qingqiu agreed.
The old man added: "If they dare not obey, we will drive them out and let them fend for themselves. Anyway, the river waters belong to us, so we should make the decisions and they should obey our arrangements."
"We can't drive everyone out. Besides, they are familiar with the waters. Who else can we send to Ancheng?" Li Rongsen took this into consideration.
The old man thought that what he said was not wrong, but he did not like disobedient citizens.
An Yan lowered her eyes and thought, and said, "It's time to find someone to take care of it. This is not a long-term solution. It will only lead to chaos, and there will be people in the city who will take the opportunity to cause chaos."
Mei Die said: "Bei Feng said that he has the ability to bind people, so logically he shouldn't be bullied like this."
"It's also my fault. His body hasn't fully recovered. It's good that he was able to escape. If it were someone else, he would have died long ago." An Yan felt a little guilty towards Bei Feng.
Li Rongsen frowned and said, "If it really doesn't work, I'll go over there early tomorrow morning to see what a mess it is."
"This is a good idea. I think you can intimidate them." The old man nodded.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"Based on the current situation, Qingfeng and Mancao may not be able to convince them." Li Rongsen said this to An Yan. He originally thought that the people over there would be easy to deal with, but who knew they could be so unruly.
An Yan also agreed with this and said, "We need to rearrange it, but there is no rush right now. Let's have someone find out the situation over there first, and then we can talk about it."
Li Rongsen seemed to understand what An Yan meant and said, "Okay, let's give them the cold shoulder for now and let them settle down on their own."
"What are you talking about? Are we just going to ignore it?" The old man was a little confused.
An Yan said to the old man, "You don't have to be anxious. Let them be proud for a while first. Let them think that we in West City are not as strong as them, and then they will naturally think about settling down on their own."
"I think they should want to push a reliable person to take charge of the situation." Li Rongsen also explained to the old man.
The old man seemed to understand a little. He nodded slightly, and when An Yan stood up to get the herbs, he said, "Okay, since you are not in a hurry, I naturally don't need to be in a hurry either."
An Yan picked out some medicine, and then took the golden needle and went to Bei Feng's room.
Beifeng was still in a coma. He struggled with his last breath to reach the gate of West City, and then lost consciousness. Now Meidie was taking care of him, changing his clothes and cleaning his wounds.
An Yan gave Bei Feng an acupuncture injection and said to Yan Qingqiu, "Take out one of the painkillers you have."
"He will dream." Yan Qingqiu reminded.
"It will be painful if you don't eat it." An Yan said.
Yan Qingqiu immediately went back to his room to get the medicine. When he was about to give it to An Yan, he handed it to Mei Die and said, "Here, feed him."
Meidie took it and helped Beifeng up, stuffed the medicine into his mouth, and asked, "What do you mean by dreaming just now?"
"It's just some dreams, but I don't know what they are. It could be amnesia, or something else. Anyway, it's just blackout." Yan Qingqiu said disapprovingly.
Meidie didn't quite understand, but she wanted to accompany Beifeng that night. She didn't know what kind of feelings she had towards him. Anyway, she could be herself in front of him, without having to think too much, and would feel very relaxed. Therefore, she always liked to stay with him.
After An Yan finished giving Bei Feng the injection, she asked him to take a pill, and then said, "Okay, we can go back now. He will be uncomfortable tonight, but luckily he won't feel any pain."
