Chapter 247: Because the Dumplings Were Poisoned

ill endure everything for An'er."Having said that, Yun An'an began acupuncture.The silver needles have been soaked in the powder of unicorn horns, and as they pierce the skin, the liquid flows into th...: []

What does it mean to not be human

Could it be a spirit from the mountains who has been cultivating in seclusion

"Yun'ya, you don't know, Ye Ziyu came from the lineage of Heavenly Dao Saints. He can calculate with his fingers and also knows secret arts."

When it comes to Ye Ziyu, Old Wang felt a chill down his spine.

He had personally witnessed Ye Ziyu killing a living person from afar.

So he worried that Yun An'an would meet with foul play.

"Magic"

Her brow furrowed slightly, Yun Anan stood with her shoulders relaxed and smiled at the old King.

After coming to this world, she had experienced all sorts of strange and supernatural things. If there were any real magical arts, they existed beyond the comprehension of knowledge from this era.

"Yes, the secret art. Don't take it lightly, that person is cunning, you better be careful."

Saying that, Old Wang glanced at the shrimp chips on the table and lifted the basin in one go.

"I'll be leaving now. Consider this as a snack for me on the road."

Before Yun'an could speak, Old King had already sneaked away with a plate of shrimp.

"Uncle, what do you think this Ye Ziyu will do to take revenge on me"

"Don't worry, my dear. As long as I am here, nothing will happen to you."

"Don't worry, I'm just bored. This period back in Kyoto has been awfully dull."

She actually really hopes that Ye Ziyu will launch a fierce revenge.

It is said that his younger brother has already been publicly executed.

Night enveloped the world,

its darkness stretching across the heavens and earth.

In the study, Yun An'an rose from the imperial couch and stretched her limbs.

Today is the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month. It's the night market in the capital city of Beichen Kingdom. The night market sells all sorts of little trinkets, especially the steamed buns. They are even better than the ones she makes.

Beichen Yi was summoned to the palace unexpectedly, while Yun An'an kicked a handful of coins and hopped into a carriage straight to Kyoto's Xiaoji.

Qingfeng was driving a carriage, Yun'an crossed her legs and hummed a little tune.

The two of them were chatting haphazardly, and somehow the conversation turned to Xiaoling.

Qingfeng scratched his head and smiled sheepishly.

"Uncle Ming has already received my gift."

Mingming, who was clearly over twenty years old, grinned, revealing a row of teeth, looking just like a bashful boy experiencing first love. Yun Anan watched him with a disapproving expression, her lips pulled into a wry smile.

Put away that lecherous smirk on your face, someone might think we forced Uncle Ming to marry his daughter using some underhanded methods.

Qingfeng and Xiaoling are now happily married. She is naturally delighted.

Although Xiaoling is blind, she is a kind and gentle girl. She is more than enough for Qingfeng.

Have you set a date yet

"Not yet, Uncle Ming said to wait until the princess leaves before setting a date for us."

Marriages are arranged by the parents, Xiaoling has a father, but Qingfeng is an orphan.

So, the unmarried men of Yi Wangfu had their marriage matters handled by Yun An'an and Bei Chen Yi.

"Okay, in a few days the princess will go to Ming Shu's place."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Qingfeng's eyes crinkled into a narrow slit as he smiled, much to the envy of the Yiwangfu guards secretly protecting Yun'an'an.

With Qingfeng's character, no girl would ever look at him. He'd have to be blind for a girl to even consider him.

But speaking of it, the girl Xiao Ling'er they had met was indeed blind, but she was so beautiful that they were all smitten with her.

If Qifeng hadn't acted quickly, they wouldn't have let this piece of trash get away with it.

As they were talking, the carriage arrived at the small market.

The shouts of vendors could be heard all around, and novelties of every kind were on display.

"Whatever the Princess wishes to buy, just tell me and I will go purchase it."

Qingfeng must always be on guard against potential dangers.

After all, the fact that their own princess and noblewoman had escorted Ye Xiang's younger brother to Dali Temple, and even the old Lord Wang said, Ye Xiang would definitely not let it go.

"Dead girl What are you doing out so late."

Yun Qianshan and Yun Ning, the father and son, walked towards them. When they saw Yun An'an, Yun Qianshan frowned tightly, wishing he could shove her back into the car.

"Shopping, huh"

Could it be that they're coming out at night to visit the grave

"He doesn't know how big a hole he has dug, and he dares to come out at this time."

A hint of worry was etched between Yun Qian Shan's furrowed brows.

"Qingfeng, quickly send your wife back to Yi Wangfu. Don't let her leave before the matter is resolved."

"Sir Yun... As you know, the Crown Princess's temper is only something that our Master can speak to. This humble servant truly has no way to help."

Qingfeng knew what Yun Qian Shan was worried about, and they were worried about the same thing.

As always, only the King can stop what the Queen wants to do. And even then, I imagine he might be swayed by others. The rest... their words are meaningless.

It's just like going to a small market fair. The guards from the Yi Wangfu, from top to bottom, all tried to persuade the Princess not to go out, but it was all in vain.

But no, hidden in the shadows were so many brothers from the Yi Wangfu, all for the sake of protecting the safety of the princess.

"I'm not a three-year-old child, just one Ye Ziyu. Is there any need to be so afraid"

Seeing everyone's nervous expressions, Yun An'an became even more eager to challenge Ye Ziyu.

As they spoke, streaks of darkness darted through the crowd. The killing intent emanating from them caused the guards of the Yiwu Palace to stiffen with tension.

Danger is coming!

"I heard there's a baozi shop at the end of the little market, Ning Shu. Sis will take you to try it."

Yun An'an grabbed Yun Ning's collar and walked toward the steamed bun shop at the end of the market, which made Yun Qian Shan both angry and anxious.

"You're asking for it by bringing Ning Shu along."

The only seedling left in the Yun family is Yun Jian, what kind of crazy thing did that dead girl Yun An An do again

The old man at the steamed bun shop brought over two baskets of buns. One basket was filled with pork buns, and the other basket was also filled with pork buns.

"Grandpa, what's the difference between these two baskets of pork-filled buns"

Yun'an looked left and right, but found no difference. Could it be that different spices were used when making the filling

However, the old man at the steamed bun shop only gave Yun An'an a simple and quite philosophical answer.

"Today, I made buns that are too big. They don't fit in the steamer basket."

"Excuse me, sir. I won't disturb you."

Handing a steaming bun filled with braised meat to Kise, then another to Aoi's hand...

"You should try this too."

Under Yun An'an's recommendation, Yun Ning picked up a steamed bun from the basket and took a bite. As expected, the taste was more delicious than any steamed bun she had ever eaten before.

"Ning Shu, sister's here to test you, is there anything special about this bun"

"Unique...delicious flavor, thin skin and big filling."

Yun Ning Shu used some beautiful adjectives to describe the visual and taste experience upon entering.

And

I don't know how to do this, please instruct me, elder sister.

Yun Ning addressed everyone politely and gently.

"My silly little brother, you can't always stay holed up in your study reading. As the saying goes, traveling ten thousand miles is better than reading ten thousand books."

"What kind of heresy."

Upon hearing this, Yun Qian Shan, who had remained silent until now, became angry.

"Ning Shu is still in a learning stage now, don't fill his head with useless knowledge. You should tell me what's so special about this steamed bun instead."

Yun Ning's calligraphy is something he meticulously taught, stroke by stroke. He will certainly be a pillar of the nation in the future. We mustn't let that dead girl's rambling nonsense influence his three views.

"Old Cloud, you're not in office anymore, why are you still so rigid"

At a glance over thousands of mountains and clouds, this old man clearly meant well, but the words he spoke almost made her want to argue back.

"Apart from being delicious, the biggest feature of steamed buns is that they are often poisoned."

"..."

..."

">..."

Qingfeng and Yuning, who were both eating buns, were stunned. They looked at the half-eaten buns in their hands and then at Yunan.

That expression was as if to say, "Why didn't you say so earlier!"

"Rest assured, the poison won't be fatal. I'll only have you sleeping for two or three days at most. Besides, with me here, there's nothing to fear!"

So, that's why she said those things just now, to give Yun Ning Shu some more experience.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh —

Several dozen dark figures swiftly attacked, firing crossbow bolts from the darkness towards the three of them relentlessly.

When time called, Yun An'an took out a smoke grenade from her backpack and tossed it to the ground.

In a moment, the baozi shop's illumination barely reached a meter into the darkness.

Whether they were the guards of Yiwang Mansion or the men in black, none could see each other.

But with every scream and the sound of something breaking, Qingfeng gradually determined Yun Annan's location.

In the smoke, a black shadow was approaching. Yun An'an raised her sword and struck straight at the shadow.

The shadow also felt the threat coming from behind. Just as Yun An'an's long sword was about to pierce his heart, Qingfeng suddenly turned his head back.

"My queen, it's me!"

Whew, I almost got finished off by the princess.

"Protect the Ning Shu and Lao Yun Tou, this is my turf."

"Your Majesty, please be careful."

The smoke bomb also contained tear gas, and all you could hear were coughs coming from the steamed bun shop.

Following the sound, Yun An'an provoked a few more men in black.

"Yun'an'an."

At this moment, outside the steamed bun shop, a man in black had seized an innocent passerby and threatened Yun An'an to sacrifice herself.

The little girl who was caught cried out in terror.

"Help, help!!"

"Yun An'an, I give you three breaths to come out. If you don't, I'll kill everyone."

Ding ding ding ~~

Another smoke bomb rolled in front of the black-clad figure. As the smoke cleared, a blue figure dashed forward and rescued the little girl from the clutches of the black-clad man.

There are still seven black-clad assassins scattered across seven locations. If they are not all dealt with together, they will inevitably harm innocents.

Yun An'an snapped her fingers, and the hidden servants of Yiwangfu received the order and looked at Yun An'an.

Only seeing Yun An'an jump to a high place, gesturing towards the crowd with her hands.

Seven people, seven places, bind them together, do not harm others.

The guards of the Yi Wangfu nodded and rushed off in seven different directions.

... followed by screams that never ceased.

Seven assassins in black were beaten to death by the guards of Prince Yi's mansion.

"Wasn't I sparing you for a reason"

"Your Highness... didn't you say we should capture him and beat him to death"

of~

She didn't make it clear, and the guards of Yiwu Palace didn't understand either.

She wanted to leave a living person to ask about Ye Ziyu, but now... Forget it. Let's send the body back to Ye Xiang's residence.r the guards from the Jiang family holding her back, she would have fought Yun An'an to the death."Meng Yuer."Jiang Yuheng roared angrily, his brow furrowed as he looked at Meng family's eldest miss w...
