Chapter 10: I'm falling for you more and more
slender hand gently brushing the disheveled hair on her forehead, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear."You are my queen. Leave these matters of bloodshed and violence to others."A warm sensation......
Yun'an An carried a box that she found somewhere back to Yiwangfu.
Inside the frame there are vegetables and meat, naturally, and a group of 'debt collectors' following behind.
"Tell Bai Shiqi to give everyone their money."
The guards of the mansion looked at each other, until they saw Yun An'an's figure disappear into the distance. Under pressure from various 'creditors', they had found Bai Shiqi.
"You must be Master Bai. The princess bought two jin of meat from me and said to ask you for the money."
"Your Majesty the Queen took some matsutake from us. Not much, just three ounces of silver."
"Your Highness…"
The creditors swarmed around, their voices clamoring, turning the usually serene Yiwangfu into a bustling marketplace. Bai Shiqi's temples throbbed with anger as his jaw clenched tightly, wishing he could grind the name Yun Anan to dust.
Night, pervades the heaven and earth.
A table wasn't set with an abundance of dishes, but a few small plates lined up before Beichen Yi. Several different kinds of dumplings steamed lightly.
"Uncle, I don't know what kind of filling you like in dumplings. I just packed a few different kinds out of thoughtfulness."
Yun Anan diligently placed the dumplings in a bowl in front of Bei Chen Yi, her half-closed eyes completing a crescent moon shape.
"Well done, my love. Your skills have captured my heart."
An unprecedented burst of flavor explodes on the palate, time stands still.
Beichen Yi praised.
Yun'an'an smiled even more triumphantly, and even more obsequiously.
"If you like it, then go ahead and try the fluffy sweet filling."
As the saying goes, "When someone offers unsolicited help, they are either a thief or plotting something."
A woman as tranquil and serene as a cloud, serving the king with an air of reverence like attending to ancestors, there must be treachery afoot.
Leaning against the door, Bai Shi stood there, stroking his chin as he looked at the plate of dumplings on the table. His heart sank.
Could it be...
Could she have poisoned the dumplings
He just said that, Yun Chengxiang's daughter was definitely not a good person.
"My lord, there is poison in the dumplings."
Seeing Bai Shiqi rush forward to stop him, a perfectly good plate of dumplings was pushed aside by his big hand and scattered on the ground.
"Bai Shiqi!!!"
Looking at the sedan chair she had personally packed being overturned by Bai Shiqi, Yun An'an's face grew increasingly unsightly.
Bang!
With a forceful over-the-shoulder throw, Yun An'an grabbed Bai Shiqi’s arm and slammed him to the ground.
Not only that, she picked up the dumplings from the ground one by one and stuffed them into Bai Shiqi's mouth. The guards on the side watched with disgust.
"I poisoned you, I worked so hard to make these dumplings and you say throw them away You think I'm made of paper Don't you dare underestimate me!"
From the moment he entered the palace, this guy has been nothing but trouble.
It's fine to do it once or twice, but every time
Today, if I don't beat him until he poops himself, she Yun An'an will write her three characters backward.
"My Lord... save me."
Watching him bleed for the royal court.
For having taken a sword for the prince.
He is handsome, wealthy, and unmarried, but he doesn't want to end up choking on dumplings.
At this moment, Yun An'an who was beating Bai Shiqi suddenly found herself suspended in mid-air. She turned her head back and saw that she was being held in Beichen Yi's arms.
That posture... is a bit hard to describe.
"What are you doing"
"It was getting late, and both I and the imperial consort were tired. Naturally, we should sleep together."
Looking at the woman struggling in his arms, the handsome man smiled faintly, a hint of amusement appearing in his eyes.
The strength in his hands tightened even further, restricting her movement.
"Sleep, go to sleep You haven't eaten dinner yet."
Why sleep
The nightlife has just begun, hey!
"My beloved, rest assured. This king is strong and healthy, even without dinner I can be as powerful as a dragon."
"..."
Car, driving caught off guard.
Her little heart was beating rapidly.
is.
Beichen Yi is handsome and has a charming personality. He's rich, powerful, and good-looking.
Since they had only known each other for a few days, she wasn't just some random woman.
"Uncle, we have a contract between us. Under non-consensual circumstances, it doesn't include the business of accompanying you to bed."
"Oh."
The magnetic voice echoed by Yun'an's ear like a mountain spring, tinkling softly.
Beichen Yi lowered his head, his deep and alluring eyes gazing at the woman in his arms, as if he wanted to devour her soul.
"My beloved consort and I have a contract that does not include sleeping together, but my contract with my beloved consort can be amended to include such clauses."
Every word and every sentence echoed clearly.
The guards instinctively chose selective blindness and deafness. They had never seen the prince like this before, but ever since the princess arrived, the manor had undeniably gained a few touches of human warmth that it had never had before.
"Uncle, that... you're having a bout of your poison."
Even Yun An'an, being held in his embrace, couldn't bear to ruin the enchanting atmosphere at this moment.
But I have to remind Beichen Yi, the dark aura on his forehead is surging up, if it's not dealt with in time, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Yi Wangfu, Jingyuan.
Bai Shiqi and Yi Qian's guards paced back and forth in front of the gate, their hearts filled with worry.
According to time calculations, the onset of the King's poison should be at least half a month away. Why did it happen early
"It must be Yun An'an. If it weren't for her, how could the prince have suffered a premature relapse"
Looking at Bai Shi who was still grumbling and cursing at Yun An'an, despite his bruised face and swollen nose, the attendant guard Qingfeng kindly reminded him to watch his words.
"Seventeen Brother, the Crown Princess heard that you're going to be beaten again."
In just a few days, Bai Shiqi had been poisoned by Yun An'an more times than he could count on one hand.
Besides, Her Royal Highness still has the King's token of love in her possession, they
"Hmph, you see, my 17th brother doesn't have the same level of understanding as her."
With a cold snort, Bai Shiqi's voice faltered.
In the room, Yun An'an was giving Bei Chen Yi acupuncture. The upward curve of her lips betrayed a certain woman's heart.
Although I don't know the origins of the two poisons in Bei Chen Yi's body, there is a love poison that prevents him from having relations with anyone. Even if the poison is cured, he will need to remain celibate for half a year.
Otherwise, you will endure the pain of a thousand insects burrowing into your heart.
This means she doesn't have to worry about Yuan Fang's affairs anymore. Thankfully, last time she had a public humiliation after heavily drinking with Bei Chen Yi.
It's also strange. The first time I treated Beichen Yi, I only discovered the Lifan Gu. Where did this sudden and unexpected emotional Gu come from
"Uncle, how many people want you dead"
Yunan An got straight to the point.
"My beloved, are you afraid"
Beichen Yi did not answer Yun An'an's question, but asked her instead.
"Scared."
"I won't marry into Yi Wangfu."
A silver needle once again pierced Beichen Yi's acupuncture point.
"To me, my Lord, you are a meal ticket, a contractual patient-doctor relationship, a pillar of support. I will do everything in my power to heal you."
"When necessary, I will also clear away unnecessary troubles for the Prince."
"And I, for the Wang Ye, am also a usable and very valuable piece. We both benefit from each other, so, Wang Ye, you need to trust me completely."
Yun'an'an smiled with a light, airy grace, like someone in the 21st century chatting comfortably with an investor.
Looking at the woman before me, sometimes violent, sometimes cunning, sometimes motivated by self-interest, like a thousand-faced maiden shrouded in mystery.
Beichen Yi gently caressed her cheek, his deep eyes seeming to devour Yun Annan.
"I'm growing to like you more and more."
"Uncle, if you really like me, come with me to Tiangege tomorrow."
After going around in circles, Yun An finally managed to steer the conversation back on track.
Once again, it was dumplings and noodles served with utmost care, all for one purpose.
Tiān Bǎo Gé!ful of melon seeds, looking left and right, but he couldn't figure out what was going on."The situation is good, and some vision will recover within three days."After dispersing the toxins in his eyes...
