Chapter 196 Don’t Worry Too Early
"You vicious woman! You finally decided to come back!" Seeing An appear, Bai Yan's face turned dark.

"Master, what are you talking about?" An's mind had not yet fully come to its senses.

"What did I say that you don't know?"

Before Ye Beiling could speak, Bai Yan looked at An with anger in his eyes.

"If you don't know, think carefully about what you did today!"

How could he marry such a stupid woman!
Under Bai Yan's extremely angry gaze, An noticed Ye Beiling and others standing nearby, and a bad premonition emerged in her heart.

Just as she was about to speak, a miserable and sad female voice interrupted her, "Mom, Yi'er believes that you have never done these things, right?"

Bai Qianyi looked sad, and her eyes were full of despair and desire as she looked at An, "You have been so good to my fifth sister since she was a child, it is impossible for you to hire someone to hurt someone, right?"

At Bai Qianyi's suggestion, An's anxious heart finally settled down, as if something was already a foregone conclusion.

Her hunch was right, and the matter was indeed discovered.

"Yier, don't be sad. Listen to what she says first." Looking at Bai Qianyi's desperate and sad look, Bai Yan frowned slightly.

There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes when he looked at An. How could such a smart and well-behaved daughter of his meet such a mother?

"An, tell me what's going on. Why did you do this? Or did someone really wrong you?"

Bai Yan spoke seriously, with a hint of expectation rising in his heart, if this matter was really just a misunderstanding.

Under everyone's gaze, An gradually calmed down. She had never thought that she would be exposed, and she had never thought that she would be exposed so quickly.

Everything was going as planned. For Bai Qianxi, she even used connections that she hadn't used for a long time.

I didn't expect this little bitch to be so lucky!
Looking at Ye Beiling who was now following Bai Qianxi, An instantly knew that the fact that this little bitch was able to escape this disaster was definitely related to the Third Prince!
But now the most important thing for her is...

An set her gaze on Bai Yan and met his red eyes.

"Master Bai, as the head of a family, is incompetent and even allowed his wife to attack the newly appointed county lord of His Majesty. But what are you dissatisfied with His Majesty?"

Ye Beiling spoke calmly, and a big hat was put on him. Bai Yan was frightened and his face turned pale in an instant.

Even his words seemed to be unsmooth. "Your Highness, you have misunderstood. I definitely did not mean that. This vicious woman was the only one who did this. Your Highness, you must investigate this matter thoroughly."

As he spoke, Bai Yan wanted to distance himself from An, fearing that the two of them would get involved in some way.

When An saw his actions, she felt chilled to the bone, but she knew in her heart that this man had always been like this.

"That's it."

Ye Beiling's voice was extremely light, as if he didn't use much effort, but when these words fell into Bai Yan's ears, they weighed as heavy as a thousand pounds.

"It's like this. I really don't know anything. Once I send you a letter of divorce, this woman will have nothing to do with our Bai family anymore. Your Highness can do whatever you want with her."

Bai Yan anxiously asked his servants to bring paper and pen.

Not to mention that Bai Qianxi is now a county lady and has caught the emperor's eye. Even if she is nothing now, she is the daughter of his Bai family.

But it is unacceptable that he was assassinated by someone sent by the mistress of a house.

"Wait." Just as he was about to pick up the pen to write, Ye Beiling's voice rang out again, and Bai Yan's body suddenly stiffened.

"Ms. An is from your Bai family. Since she did this in Li Bai's house, whether you, Lord Bai, know it or not, you are responsible for this matter. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to write a divorce letter now."

"We should wait until the investigation results are out before discussing this matter. The Dali Temple happens to be fast as well."

Hearing Ye Beiling's suggestion, Bai Yan felt a chill in his heart.

This is simply going to cost him his life.

If An was really taken away for investigation, even if the matter had nothing to do with him, he would probably lose his official position if the matter became known.

The imperial court would not need such a tainted official, not to mention that he was only a fourth-rank official. Thinking of this, Bai Yan felt extremely desperate.

"Your Highness, I have something to say." At this moment, Bai Qianyi's voice sounded again.

Everyone couldn't help but turn their eyes to her.

"Your Highness, Father." At this moment, she seemed to have recovered from the shocking news just now. She bowed to everyone one by one and spoke slowly, "I know that this incident was mother's fault, although I don't know why mother did this."

"But Yi'er still wants to say one thing. Fifth sister's situation is special now. She has just been named county lord, and the Bai family is where she was born."

"Everyone says that there are only bad children and bad parents in this world. Now that this has happened, if it gets out."

"Whether it is for Fifth Sister or the Bai family, the reputation is greatly damaged. Therefore, this matter should not be made a big deal."

Bai Qianyi was determined not to let her mother be taken away by the Third Prince, otherwise she would definitely die!
Not to mention that compared with Bai Qianxi, she is An's biological daughter. If this matter were to spread, it would also be extremely detrimental to her reputation.

It may even lead to...

Thinking of this, Bai Qianyi didn't dare to think any further.

After some rational analysis, Bai Yan looked at Bai Qianyi with eyes full of admiration.

This is his good daughter, who only cares about the family, unlike that silly girl.

Bai Yan's eyes fell on Bai Qianxi, and seeing that she was still standing there, looking indifferent, he couldn't help but feel extremely hateful.

It's all because of this damn girl! If it weren't for her, how could so many things have happened? Now that the Bai family has benefited from this, she doesn't even know how to give back to her family!
"You are quite smart." Ye Beiling's cold eyes fell on Bai Qianyi, causing her body to stiffen.

It was as if all her thoughts were seen through by the other party. Countless cold sweats broke out on her back unconsciously. This prince was indeed a very scary existence.

Bai Qianyi had to try hard to suppress her emotions and prevent her body from shaking violently.

Ye Beiling withdrew his gaze indifferently, and Bai Qianyi instantly breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had just been pulled back from the brink of death.

"What you said makes sense. It's inappropriate to take people away now."

Hearing Ye Beiling's compassionate words, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, especially An.

She thought she was going to die this time, and she just wanted to take advantage of her last moments to avoid implicating Yier, but she didn't expect that there was still a glimmer of hope.
