Chapter 144: Believe me, I'll kill you?

ho knew what the future held Better not waste food."Old Cloud, you're really stingy! Uncle, let's go back and eat pork knuckle."Turning her head, Yun Anan turned and strode away.Before leaving, Bei C...: []

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Candy

Poison, isn't it

"From now on, don't just eat other people's things, understand"

“Well then, Lang’er understands. Lang’er will definitely listen to Mother.”

Gongsun Lang nodded seriously.

The two chatted, one word at a time. To outsiders, it seemed they were talking about nothing at all. Only the two of them knew they were passing messages to each other.

When Gongsun Yan returned, Yun An'an was just about to leave.

Gongsun Lang unwillingly tugged at Yun An'an's sleeve, his eyes reddening again.

"Mother, when will you come Lang'er doesn't want you to leave."

"Your Highness, please forgive me. My grandson is afraid he truly sees you as Hong'er, which is why he acted so inappropriately."

Gongsun Zan was worried about his only grandson. When he returned home, he heard that his grandson had fallen ill again.

"Your Highness, may I speak with you privately"

"Okay."

Yun An'an followed Gongsun Yan aside. Gongsun Yan bowed to her, which scared Yun An'an.

"Mr. Gongsun, please don't do this. As a junior, I can't let you..."

A woman in her sixties or seventies was being worshipped by an elderly man, but she didn't want to live any longer and die prematurely.

"This is what an old man should do. Your Highness, despite past grievances, healed my grandson's illness. This kindness, the old man will never forget."

It's not that simple.

Gongsun Yan cast a glance at the crowd in Gongsun's manor. He had long known that there were spies among them.

Sun Wukong has become like this today, all thanks to that bandit.

"Excuse me, sir, I have a few questions I'd like to ask. Would it be alright"

"Your Highness, please speak freely."

Yun'an had always wanted to ask Gongsun Yan if he had any enemies. When she was taking Gongsun Lang's pulse today, the "tall uncle" mentioned by him in his words wasn't just an ordinary poison.

It can be said that it is difficult to find someone like her throughout the entire Beichen Kingdom. If her guess is correct, the medicine given to Gongsun Lang should come from the Wuguo.

When he arrived, Qingfeng also told her some things about the Gongsun family. The Gongsun clan came from the Wushi Kingdom and was a very prominent family there.

But the aristocratic families of the Wuzhou Kingdom served in government positions in Beichen Kingdom, and almost their entire clan had migrated to the capital city.

This naturally raises a few questions. Was it Kyoto's splendor that attracted the Gongsun clan, or was there another reason entirely that reached Gongsun Lang

Do you have any enemies, the kind that you want to wipe out completely

"This..."

Gongsun Zan hesitated, thinking over and over again but still did not speak.

"Your Highness, these are just old matters. Are you suspecting that my grandson's illness has something to do with this"

"It's not that I wouldn't, but Gongsun Lang's meals must be strictly followed according to the prescription. If it's not an accident, this princess can't guarantee she'll arrive in time like this."

As soon as her words left her mouth, Yun An'an turned and climbed into the carriage.

She believed that Gongsun Zan was a clever man, and also suspected that Gongsun Zan had known about the traitor in his residence long ago.

"Go to the Rui's Prince Mansion."

"Huh"

Qīngfēng didn't turn back for a while. What would he go to Ruì's Royal Manor for

The carriage rattled along, and after more than an hour it arrived at the gate of the Prince Rui's Mansion.

Since the Qishan incident, Old Wangye has been staying in his mansion almost all day. When he heard that Yun An'an had come to the palace, he thought it was fake.

Not until I saw the real person.

"Yun'ya, is it really you Yun'ya~~"

Like he hadn't seen Yun An'an in ages, Old Wang ran towards her, three steps at a time, and burst into tears of joy, expressing his longing.

"You said you, this girl, old man hasn't done anything wrong to you, at most just calculated you."

Old Wang looked aggrieved, pouting his lips as he lamented that Yun An'an hadn't visited the apothecary where he worked lately.

Even if I went to every pharmacy, I wouldn't be able to find you. I still have to come to the Rui Prince's Mansion.

She sat down on her own, a maid serving her hot tea and refreshments. Yun'an an ate with such casualness, just like she was at home.

As for Lao Wangye, he kept circling around Yun'an back and forth. His white eyebrows framed a pair of eyes the size of mung beans as he stared at her.

"Little cloud, you came to see this old man, is there something good news, or did you know that this old man hasn't been feeling well lately and specially came to cook for him"

"It's none of them."

Taking a bite of the yolk pastry, Yun'an shook her head and directly stated the purpose of their trip.

She came this time just to ask the Old Wang about the Gongsun clan.

"Sun Yan You Changyuan that old rogue wouldn't really entrust Sun Lang to you for treatment, would he Even I couldn't cure that fool of a Sun Lang."

Hearing Old Wang Ye's words, Yun An An pursed her lips and smiled. It seemed he didn't know that Gong Sun Lang was feigning madness.

The Gongsun clan was originally a prominent family in the Wuguo. Why did they abandon their prosperity in Wuguo and come to Kyoto Moreover, members of the family had served as officials in the imperial court.

"Well, this is a long story. Why don't you cook something for me old man We can chat while we eat."

Old Wang pleaded with his face.

You have to know that he is the oldest prince in Beichen Country's history, and anyone who sees him has to kneel and bow their head. Even the current emperor, Beichen Han, that young fellow, has to give him some face.

But in front of Yun An'an, he felt like a beggar on the street, with no dignity at all.

"That's great, I haven't eaten either. Let's have a good chat."

Yunan An cooked a few small dishes, while Old Wang diligently warmed some wine. An elder and a younger one drank together in the pavilion in the courtyard.

Taking a bite of the sautéed mushrooms, the unique and savory flavor explodes in your mouth, making even Old Master Li overjoyed.

Sizzle~

One bite of food followed by a sip of liquor, that feeling is truly beyond description.

"Qingfeng, catch it."

Yun'an An brought a plate of peanuts to Qingfeng, which made Old Wang frown.

You little punk, you actually dared to accept it.

"This time, I should speak up."

"Let the old man finish this cup of wine."

Zizi~

After another cup of wine went down, Lao Wangye finally spoke about the Gongsun clan.

As Yun'an knows, the Gongsun clan was a major family in the Witch Kingdom. Their business spanned the entire Witch Kingdom, and they held a significant position even in the Seven Kingdoms.

Later, under the leadership of Gongsun Mingyi, the Gongsun family moved to Beichen State. They even watched and participated in the event where Beichen Yi was assassinated in Beichen State.

And the reason Gongsun Mingyi brought his entire clan to Beichen Kingdom's capital was because of a terrible incident, almost a massacre, that happened in their ancestral home years ago.

"Genocide"

Yes, the Gongsun family was divided into two factions at the time and supported both princes of Wuguo.

Speaking of this, Old Wang sighed. Anything to do with the royal family never ends well.

One will end up as ten thousand withered bones, the faction led by Gongsun Mingyi supporting the Third Prince ultimately ascended to become the emperor, while the other faction became prisoners.

After all, moved by familial ties, Gongsun Ming pleaded with the emperor for his brother's pardon. Who knew that the emperor would instead order the execution of all members of the Gongsun clan who had sided against him

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, ten years have passed. Those who were killed back then left behind offspring. When these offspring grew up, they began their ruthless revenge.

Nearly overnight, the Gongsun clan was decimated.

Gongsun Mingyi knew that the Gongsun family had now withered and become a puppet controlled by the emperor. Therefore, he took the remaining members of the Gongsun clan to relocate to the capital of Beichen Kingdom.

And offered the treasures of the Gongsun clan, seeking protection from the Emperor of Beichen.

That is to say, everything happening in the Gongsun family now is a continuation of the revenge from back then

"Yun'ya, tell me the truth, how is Gongsun Lang's condition"

He understands Yun An'an's temperament.

Never do something without confidence. Since I have taken over Gongsun Lang, there is naturally a foolproof plan.

Ke Kan Yun was calm and silent, while Lao Wangye's face darkened.

"Don't you trust old me"

"Huh"

Yun An'an was deep in thought about Gongsun Lang, when she heard the old Wangye say such a thing.

"Have you had too much to drink"

"Aren't you still being obedient to your old master, letting me drag you down Even so, I always try my best to protect you and have never harmed you."

With a long sigh, Old Wang took a gulp of his wine and felt even more despondent.

"I am doing this for the good of Beichen Nation, and I truly treat you as my granddaughter. How could I bear to harm you"

"Don't get sentimental with me. If I truly cared, I would have destroyed your Rui's Royal Manor long ago."

Glancing at Old Master Wang, she said it wasn't his fault, but that was a lie.

But she wasn't a mindless person, she could tell the difference between right and wrong.

"Just say what you want, there's no need to play games. We're almost at the end anyway."

"So you don't blame this old man Hehehe~ This old man just said so, Yun Ya is not a stingy person, drink, drink~~"

Another cup of wine down, Old Wang was as happy as a child.

It was already evening when they left Prince Rui's mansion, and the old Wang Ye insisted on introducing his grandson Bei Chen Lin to Yun An An.

"When I have time to get acquainted, I'll have to go."

"After meeting me, perhaps you'll dislike that Bei Chen Yi boy when you see my grandson."

Actually, Old Wang really considered stealing the bride. Yun'er is a rare woman, wouldn't it be wonderful if she could become his granddaughter-in-law

Every day, drinking a little wine and eating some snacks, that's simply a life like a god.

Anyway, getting married once is getting married, getting married twice is also getting married, so what's the harm in getting married a third time

Huh

It's getting late, the little rascal should be coming back.

On the other side, after leaving Prince Rui's Mansion by carriage, Yun Anan returned to Yiwangfu.

In the distance, one could see Bei Chen Yi leading a group of guards from Yi Wang Fu waiting at the gate.

Yun Anan had gotten off her carriage, and Bei Chen Yi took a few steps forward to come beside her.

"Why are you back so early Don't you want to hang out at Yanyu Tower"

"As my husband, I will go nowhere. Wherever my beloved is, there I shall be."

Yun'an walked in the front, Beichen Yi attentively guarding by her side. The two walked side-by-side to the study.

Sitting on the long chair in the study, Yun An'an took out all the melon seeds from inside her collar. Inside, there were also little notes written by Gongsun Lang.

"Three days later."

"Gongsun's residence."

“Danger.”

What danger could there be at Gongsun's residence in three days

What are you looking at It's about the Gongsun family.

At once, Beichen Yi's memory flashed back to his time at Yanyulou.

Humph!

Don't think that just because you're not talking, things are over. Speak up! You ran out of words

"A'er's angry expression is quite beautiful, and I cannot bear to interrupt you."

...

Yun An'an looked up, her gaze meeting Beichen Yi's sincere and earnest eyes. Her old face blushed.

"Do you know where you went wrong"

“Whether or not the husband is wrong, as long as An'er is wrong, the husband must be wrong.”

Pffft-

She almost laughed out loud, but Yun Anan tried her best to hold it in. She forced a stern expression on her face as if she were angry.

"When did you become so eloquent Don't think this means I forgive you."

"As a husband, I truly admit my mistakes. I guarantee that I will report my whereabouts at any time in the future and won't let An'er worry or be afraid."

Beichen Yijian saw Yun'an, a smile appeared in his eyes. Jun Yan also smiled along with him.

"An'er is not angry on behalf of her husband."

"If there's a next time, it's either you die or I do, understand"

Displaying his sandbag-sized fists, Yun An'an looked fierce and alluring.

I am thirsty.

"As my husband, I'll go get some water right now."

The next day.

Class A, Section Ding.

In a few days, it will be the Qingtuan Poetry Meeting.

Every year, the Poetry Conference will select first, second, and third place winners.

When the time comes, the top three winners plus their homeroom teacher can go on an all-expenses-paid trip.

This time, the destination for the trip was Tai Chi Mountain, a two-day drive from Kyoto.

"This is really Taiji Mountain, am I hearing things"

Xue Qiancheng acted like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world. When he heard the words "Taiji Mountain," his eyes lit up.

"If it really is Taiji Mountain... then I'm sure to get in the top three at this Spring Poetry Conference."

"Mount Taiji is that good You all look so fascinated, it's not some earthly paradise."

Yun'an An knows little about Taiji Mountain.

However, many people truly longed for a three-day trip to Taichi Mountain.

"The Master doesn't know that Mount Taiji is comparable to an earthly paradise. There are countless beauties, not to mention the spiritual energy that permeates the air. Many people have sought a place to reside there but were unable to obtain one."

"So, if you guys want to go to Mount Taiji, bring out 120% of your spirit and be sure to crush those noobs, taking the top three."

"Crush the noobs, take all three spots."

The crowd looked at the slogan, with some even looking like they wanted to go out for a drink.

This startled Yu Changyuan, who had just entered.

"Master Yun, come out for a moment, I have something to speak with you."

You Changyuan waved his hand, just as he was about to step into the classroom, he retracted his foot and called out to Yun An'an, inviting her out to discuss something.

"What's the matter that would trouble Dean Yu to come see me personally Has something happened to the Gongsun family"

"Eh How did Master Yun guess that"

You Changyuan was stunned for a moment. After confirming that Yun An'an was just guessing, he explained his intention.

However, it was the Gongsun residence that had an incident. Luckily, Gongsun Lang was unharmed, but unfortunately, Gongsun Yan was seriously injured.

"The Gongsun family has really had a hard time, hasn't it!"

"Well, the idiom "Yún Fuzi" is quite apt here."

So, Yu Changyuan is only here to tell her that Gongsun Zan was injured

"Hmm!"

Yu Changyuan hummed for a long time, and then stammered out the real purpose of this trip.

"For safety's sake, Gongsun Zan entrusted me with taking care of Gongsun Lang. As for the person himself, I have already brought him here."

As he spoke, Yu Changyuan waved his hand again.

At this moment, Gongsun Lang, who was crouching behind a rock a short distance away, stood up. Seeing Yun An'an, he was very excited.

"Mother, mother, I'm here to find you!"

"Are you crazy I'm not your mother, I'm just a doctor... Do you think this is a daycare"

Meanwhile, You Changyuan had already vanished into thin air.

Even Yun An'an couldn't see how You Changyuan left.

Strike first, then play. Gongsun Lang had already approached Yun An'an, his pair of slender eyes, under which the mole on his cheek was even more alluring.

"Mother, we meet again."

Gongsun Lang smiled innocently, which made Yun An'an suffer.

"You're not really planning to live here, are you"

"For now, this young master will accompany his mother."

"Call me mother one more time, and I'll kill you."

My scalp went numb with disgust, looking at Gongsun Lang who was head taller than me. Yun An'an really wanted to chop this man into pieces and feed him to the dogs.es, An An probably would have bought the entire street."Complaining."Under the white veil, Yun An'an glanced at Apu. Although he was a young man in his twenties, he talked incessantly like an old geez...
