Chapter 253: Angry and Embarrassed
An Yan thought that Beichen had insulted Li Rongsen to a great extent, which she would not allow. Moreover, with her hot temper, she had to use some tactics to control it. She thought that they were begging her to punish her, which made her feel proud.
Yan Qingqiu followed An Yan back to her courtyard and asked her, "What should we do with this bowl of medicine?"
"Put it aside. She'll be asking for medicine soon."
"It's not like she can drink whenever she wants. She has to give in no matter what. We've all been busy cooking for her so late at night, and now she blames us." Yan Qingqiu was also unhappy.
An Yan looked into the room next to her and found that the door was closed. She thought Li Rongsen must be inside. She wanted to go and persuade him herself, but she felt embarrassed. So she said to Yan Qingqiu, "You go and persuade him. He must be very angry."
"Why is he angry?" Yan Qingqiu didn't notice that Li Rongsen was angry.
"Beichen said some disrespectful words just now, which probably made him very angry." An Yan told him seriously, and then prepared to go back to her room, but saw Bei Mo catching up with her.
He first bowed, then said to An Yan: "I'm really sorry, she is just like that. Please forgive her for her young age. She knows she is wrong."
"Really? Will she realize she's wrong?" Yan Qingqiu asked. He didn't believe it.
Bei Mo said to Anyan, "City Lord, cure her as soon as possible, and I will take her away and let her go home to do whatever she wants."
"That's fine. If you can't bring her back safely, you won't be able to sit in that seat." An Yan thought about it carefully and realized that this was the case.
Suddenly, the door to Li Rongsen's room opened. He said, "How about this? You go back first and ask the old man from the North Courtyard to come and take Beichen. You can take the position first, otherwise he won't deny his responsibility when he sees that Beichen is better."
An Yan looked towards Li Rongsen. He had changed his clothes. It was still a long robe with wide sleeves in the style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, which gave him the elegance of an ancient man.
Yan Qingqiu frowned. He almost didn't recognize who it was. She was indeed more beautiful than himself. He felt a little unhappy for a moment, but when he thought that it was one of his own, he felt happy again.
Bei Mo looked at Li Rongsen and said, "That's a bit cunning."
"I have sent someone to deliver a letter to the North Courtyard, stating that he will stay for a few days. He should arrive tomorrow and stay for a few more days. You can take this opportunity to arrange everything." Li Rongsen answered a question that was not asked.
An Yan raised the corner of her mouth slightly. She looked at Bei Mo and said to him, "Do as he says."
Bei Mo nodded slightly, then said to them, "Please go back and treat her. She is calm now."
"He won't die. We'll treat him tomorrow. Let's go to sleep first." Yan Qingqiu said and went back to his room.
An Yan said to Bei Mo, "You should go back and rest first. We should set off early tomorrow. Don't delay."
Bei Mo responded and said to Li Rongsen, "I lost the game of chess just now, and I owe you something." After that, he left the yard.
An Yan then walked towards Li Rongsen and said, "He's really a gentleman. I clearly taught him how to play, but he actually told you the truth. Are you guys making a bet?"
"A bet between men." Li Rongsen lowered his eyes and smiled at An Yan.
An Yan looked at him and felt that he seemed to have changed a little, but she couldn't tell what had changed. Perhaps it was the way she looked at him that had changed. She asked, "Why are you wearing this kind of clothes? Who asked you to wear it?"
"The old man said that this is regular clothing and should be worn on major holidays. I tried it on in advance and it feels pretty good." Li Rongsen said seriously.
An Yan frowned and turned to leave as she spoke, but she didn't notice that her feet were very slippery and she was about to fall out. Li Rongsen instinctively wanted to help her.
As a result, An Yan's reaction ability was first-rate. She instinctively jumped up and somersaulted, standing steadily in the yard. As a result, it was difficult for Li Rongsen, as he missed a step and was about to fall to the ground.
An Yan quickly held his waist with one hand and pulled his wrist with the other, performing a half-hug position.
"This doesn't seem right." Li Rongsen felt that his life was miserable. Why couldn't he always be a hero and save the damsel in distress like an ordinary man?
An Yan straightened his body and said, "Why are you blushing?" Then she went back to her room.
Li Rongsen felt aggrieved. When would he be able to react faster than An Yan?
At the hour of Mao the next day, Bei Mo followed Li Rongsen's words and hurriedly left Xicheng. Bei Chen became much more obedient after seeing her family members leave. Moreover, her legs could not move, so she naturally did not dare to be arrogant anymore.
Yan Qingqiu brought the medicine to her and said, "Come, drink it."
Beichen was not convinced but drank it obediently. He frowned again and said, "You don't have any skill in decocting medicine. It's so bitter."
"It's good enough that I gave you a drink. You talk too much nonsense." Yan Qingqiu snorted and walked out with the empty bowl.
An Yan walked in and said to Beichen, "Your father will come to pick you up soon."
Beichen laughed and said, "You're not attracted to my brother, are you? You went to so much trouble to help him become the head of the family. What kind of benefits did he give you?"
"I just don't like you. How about that reason?" An Yan sat down on the armchair calmly and generously.
Beichen suddenly became angry and said, "You take yourself too seriously."
"You are in my hands now. I have the final say on whether you are round or flat. Unless you don't want to live, this is a good thing. It will give us peace and quiet." An Yan didn't have a good attitude towards her.
Beichen sighed and said, "Do you really think he's a good person? He's just hypocritical on the surface. When the time comes, you'll know how hypocritical he is. It's just a trick to fool children."
"That doesn't matter. I hate you more anyway." An Yan took the tea handed to her by the servant and took a sip.
"You don't have to treat me like this. There are many people watching the city slaves in West City, not just me." Beichen snorted coldly.
"Who else?" An Yan asked, looking at her sideways.
Beichen showed a smug smile and said, "I won't tell you."
"No matter who they are, they would never be as blatant as you to snatch people away. Everyone has some sense of shame." An Yan didn't care.
Beichen lay down angrily, covered himself with the quilt, and ignored her.
Not long after, the old man from the north courtyard arrived, looking dusty. He seemed to have aged ten years and immediately asked, "Where is my Chen'er?"
Beichen heard this and hurried to see it. He couldn't help but feel sad and said, "Dad!"
An Yan said to the old man in the North Courtyard, "Please stay in my West City for ten days or half a month. By then, your daughter will be almost free from the poison."
"You are the mayor of West City, how dare you interfere in the affairs of our North Courtyard?" The old man from the North Courtyard was so angry that he asked, "Where are the people from North Desert?"
"He has gone back." An Yan said and was about to leave.
Beiyuan raised his palm and struck at An Yan, but fortunately she dodged it. She turned over and said, "Why, do you want to fight?"
"You are going too far." The old man from the north yard slapped him with his palm again.
An Yan retreated all the way to the yard.
The old man from the north yard also followed out and said, "We have always kept to ourselves. You hurt my daughter first, and then you meddled in my family affairs, allowing my rebellious son to take the throne. How can I tolerate you?" He then pulled out an energy net, trapping both himself and An Yan in it, and swung out a long whip towards An Yan.
Li Rongsen wanted to go in to help An Yan, but found that he was powerless and his palm was injured by electricity.
And seeing the old man also hurried over, he said: "Don't touch that, this is the realm of life and death, it seems that this old man has made up his mind."
Yan Qingqiu frowned and said, "No one can escape from the realm of life and death. He will perish together with An Yan."
