Chapter 197 My Death is Not a Pity

"Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness." Bai Yan said respectfully, as long as Ye Beiling agreed to let their family handle the matter themselves.

That means the matter can be put to rest.

"Don't worry too soon. I don't want to make a big deal out of this, mainly for Xier." Just when Bai Yan breathed a sigh of relief, Ye Beiling's voice sounded again.

Bai Yan's heart, which had been at ease, was instantly lifted up again.

"I may not take the person with me, but what she did cannot be treated as if it never happened."

"Even if she didn't harm the county lady today, as a mistress, she should be sentenced to death for murdering a concubine's daughter!"

Faced with Ye Beiling's warning, Bai Yan nodded repeatedly to show his agreement, and at the same time called on the people beside him to take An away.

After resolving the matter, Ye Beiling turned to look at Bai Qianxi. She seemed like an outsider in the whole process.

No matter what the situation was, it couldn't cause any ripples in her heart.

"I'll take you back first."

Bai Qianxi turned around and Ye Beiling hurriedly followed.

"What do you think of this outcome?" On the way, Ye Beiling took the initiative to bring up the topic.

"Your Highness, please make the decision." Bai Qianxi said calmly, "I'm almost there, Your Highness, you don't have to see me off."

Seeing the distant attitude the other party was showing, Ye Beiling felt a slight sense of loss in his heart again.

She rejected Bai Qianxi's request without hesitation, "It doesn't matter what happens normally, but today I must send you back, otherwise I won't feel at ease."

Ye Beiling deliberately wanted to slow down, but the courtyard soon appeared in front of him.

Seeing Bai Qianxi appear, Bai Wangqi's face suddenly showed a light of surprise, "Master, you are finally back."

She waited in the imperial kitchen for a long time, but Bai Qianxi didn't show up, so she had to go back.

Since the person had already been sent there, Ye Beiling had no reason to stay any longer. He could only ask Bai Wangqi to take good care of Bai Qianxi and then left.

"Master, are you injured? Why do you smell of blood?" After getting close to Bai Qianxi, Bai Wangqi's worry, which had originally been put aside, was instantly raised again.

Especially when she saw Bai Qianxi wearing a coat she had never seen before.

"I'm fine. It's just a minor injury that will heal in two days." Seeing the person in front of her deeply worried about her, Bai Qianxi shook her head slightly.

After spending such a long time with Ye Beiling today, most of her injuries have already healed. Besides, these injuries were not serious to begin with, so they just needed to be cured by applying some medicine.

Unexpectedly, his master was really injured. Bai Wangqi was already worried, and he became even more nervous. He quickly welcomed the man into the yard and carefully helped him unbutton his coat.

Looking at the deep bloodstains on her master's dress, and the wound on her arm which, even though it had recovered a little, still looked a little scary.

Bai Wangqi knelt on the ground in an instant, "It is my fault that I failed to protect my master. Please punish me, Master!"

Just thinking about it, it can be concluded that Bai Qianxi's injuries were definitely caused after her master separated from her.

Seeing the man kneeling down after a disagreement, Bai Qianxi hurriedly tried to pull him up, "This is not your fault, how can I blame you? Get up quickly!"

Bai Wangqi still insisted on asking for punishment, and Bai Qianxi couldn't pull him away. It was not until Bai Qianxi looked a little angry that the other party got up from the ground.

But the lowered corners of her lips showed that she was still feeling a little self-blame. "Master, let me apply medicine for you." Then she found a clean dress again. Bai Wangqi also learned the truth about the attack from Bai Qianxi.

Hearing that all this was done by An's men, Bai Wangqi's eyes flashed with a cold light, "Master, do you want me to go..."

"No need, let's wait first." Seeing what she was thinking, Bai Qianxi spoke.

An has been locked in the room since she was taken away. Bai Qianyi wanted to plead for mercy, but was rejected mercilessly by Bai Yan.

"Yier, this matter is not as simple as you think. As for how to deal with An Shi, I still need to think about it. You should go back and have a rest first."

Looking at this outstanding child of his, Bai Yan's tone softened a little. If he hadn't rescued her in time, An would have really been taken away.

It was not until the evening that Bai Yan finally stepped into An's room.

She had been locked up here for half a day and no one had brought her food or water, but fortunately she had eaten something when she came back, so she wasn't too hungry now.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, An turned around only to see Bai Yan with a dark face.

Xiaoyi spoke gently, without any resentment on his face, "Master, you are here."

As he said this, he was about to take the initiative to step forward and help him undress.

"Just sit down first." Bai Yan did not accept An's goodwill at this time, and his voice remained cold and hard.

An's expression did not change at all, and her hands continued to move.

"You know what I'm here for, right?"

"I don't know, please tell me clearly, Master."

"You have seen the situation. If my Bai family cannot give Third Prince an explanation today, I am afraid this matter will not be resolved."

"And you are also confused this time. Didn't I tell you to stay away from her during this period of time?"

At this point, Bai Yan's tone was filled with some complaints. After all, he was quite satisfied with the An family, and he didn't want to do anything unless it was necessary...

"I will naturally keep in mind what you said, Master, but I really have to do this... Master, you also know that we are in the same boat with the Second Prince."

"The entire Bai family, including Yi'er, knows this, except for Wu Niang. She insists on getting close to the Third Prince, not to mention getting close to him."

"Now she has been conferred the title of County Lady. Perhaps this is all the work of the Third Prince. However, the Third Prince and the Second Prince can only stand on one side. If this matter gets out, it may arouse the Second Prince's suspicion."

"If the Second Prince thinks that our Bai family is playing both sides, I'm afraid..."

An didn't finish his words, but his meaning was clear.

Seeing Bai Yan's expression relax and he also fell into deep thought, An knew that his plan was half successful.

I heard her soft voice continue to ring out, "Master, I did this just to cut off her contact with the Third Prince. After all, we can't do anything to the Third Prince."

"But Wu Niang is one of our own after all. We have raised her for so long, and it is time for her to contribute to the family... It is just unfortunate that this matter was discovered by the Third Prince."

"Now the Third Prince is making things difficult for us because of this matter. Master, how could we know whether he is making things difficult for us just for Fifth Lady, or whether he is using us to attack the Second Prince?"

"I am a woman, and my death is not a pity. But if I die today because of this, even if it is spread to the outside world that I died suddenly... The Second Prince has great means, as long as he is willing to investigate, how can he not find out the specific reason?"
