as the men on the city gate sought to shoot those fleeing, suddenly a great throng of tigers appeared outside the city.The tigers roared to the sky, their voices echoing in a series of fierce growls..."I... I don't seem to feel anything," Cui blinked.

Wang Shi and An Nuannuan, upon hearing this, immediately shoved the pills in their hands into their mouths and swallowed them.

An Xuetang had been smiling enigmatically at them throughout the entire time. Now that she was sure they had all eaten, she took a step back.

Counting down, three, two, one!

Then, Cui suddenly clutched at her chest and spat out a mouthful of blood, leaving Wang and An Nuan pale with fright!

< Cui pointed at An Xuetang, “You... you...” >

Wang and An Nuannuan only then realized something was wrong. Both of them wanted to dig the pills out.

Without waiting for the other to make a move, both of them spat out blood.

An Xuetang stared at the three people very calmly.

Wang's trembling hand pointed at An Xuetang, roaring angrily, "An Xuetang, you bitch! You... you actually dared to poison me!"

An Xuetang curled her lips, fell silent for a moment before speaking, "Actually, you were never poisoned before. But now... the poison in your body is incurable."

"!!!"

The three people's faces were filled with panic, they all wanted to rush over and beat An Xue Tang.

An Xuetang's face instantly turned cold. She kicked the three of them to the ground with one kick, and said word by word:

“From now on, if you want to stay alive, you must treat my mother well. After all, I only deliver the antidote once a month to her hands, and I can tell you responsibly that the poison you are taking has no cure and can only be prolonged by my specially made medicine. Once the medicine stops, you will die without a doubt!”

"Ahhhh!" An Nuan warmed up and screamed frantically.

Outside the house, An Fugui and An Dah He heard the sound and instinctively wanted to rush in to see what was going on.

But Kedinghua stood before them like a great Buddha, so imposing that they couldn't even budge.

The three Wangs started pointing at An Xuetang and cursing, An Xuetang looked at them coldly, she didn't feel anything about those insults.

After they had cursed her for a while, An Xue Tang spoke in an unusually calm voice, "The poison in your bodies can be diagnosed by a doctor. I suggest that you see a doctor before you curse."

After that, she turned and walked away.

Ding Hua saw her come out and immediately hurried to get the carriage. The two of them got up and returned to the estate.

Sitting in the carriage, An Xuetang touched her chest, as if offering some comfort to the original owner.

Liu shi refused to live with her, and she couldn't persuade her. Now he had done everything he could for her, and now it was up to her whether she would rise to the occasion or not.

She has already paved the way for her, if Liu shi still doesn't know how to make the most of these resources, then she is truly helpless.

Back home, An Xuetang went straight to the inner courtyard. Seeing Mo Yunjing walking slowly in the yard, her gloom instantly dissipated, "Ah Jing, I'm back!"

Mò Yún's gaze, clear and bright as the sky, fell upon her. He beckoned her over with a wave of his hand.

An Xuetang scurried over and grasped his arm, Mo Yunjing raised his other hand to smooth the stray hairs from her forehead. "She still doesn't want to come back with you"

"Hmm," Liu said, her tone tinged with sadness. "She knew about An Nánlín's remarriage and having children, but she still insisted on going to the capital. There was nothing I could do."

"Then let her be. Everyone has their own destiny. Since this is the path she chose, she must have thought it through."

An Xuetang pursed her lips, "Hmm."

Mò Yúnjǐng pinched her nose, "Don't overthink it, go sit down and rest for a while."

"Alright, Ajing, you should rest too." An Xue Tang helped him sit down in the wheelchair.

An Xuetang fiddled with his big palm and then told him about everything she had done at the An family.

Mo Yunjing was astonished by her consideration of all aspects of a matter. It has to be said, An Xuetang is indeed a very meticulous woman. Her mind is so fine that it would frighten the enemy.

For a moment, Mo Yunjing was almost grateful. Such an outstanding woman being on the same side as him felt like a blessing. If she were his opponent, he wouldn't be confident in winning against her.

After An Xuetang finished speaking, Mo Yunjing pursed his lips and said, "Tangtang did a good job. Liu shi will understand your hard work."

An Xuetang curved her lips, "Hopefully so, she's not that foolish after all. She just never wanted to fight for anything."

"Hmm."

"By the way, Jing, what do you think of this An Nalin insisted on bringing me back to the capital."

Mentioning this, Mo Yunjing's eyes darkened, "Marriage."

"Huh"

Mo Yunjing's clear and cold brows furrowed, "Given Liu Yan'er's jealous nature, she wouldn't agree to let someone take you to the capital unless it was a moment where she absolutely had to push you out as a shield."

An Xue Tang's brows furrowed, "A marriage alliance... Ah Jing means they want to bring me to the capital to arrange a marriage for me"

"Tangtang doesn't know, the marriages of officials' children are often not their own choice, they are all about interests. Liu Yan'er's daughter is also of marriageable age, and it is possible that the emperor has issued an imperial decree to arrange a marriage, and the woman is unwilling to marry into the family. So Liu Yan'er thought of you. You are also the daughter of Annan Lin. If you get married, it wouldn't be considered defying the imperial decree."

An Xuetang was speechless. She felt that Mo Yunjing's possibility was extremely high, and thinking of Li Yong's face when he learned she was married, she truly *believed* her family *Jing*'s analysis was most likely the true reason for taking her into Beijing.

"What a sweet dream the scumbag and the cheapskate have!" An Xuetang snorted coldly, "I'm eager to see how Wang's family will turn An's mansion upside down this time when they enter Beijing!"

Mò Yún Jǐng smirked and raised his hand to stroke her head, "Then Lǐ Yǒng won't just give up."

An Xuetang pursed her lips, "I think so too. And I've always felt something was off about today's events. How could Li the steward possibly come alone He has no attendants or servants with him. I just can't shake the feeling that there's a conspiracy at play."

Mo Yunjing's heart skipped a beat. "No matter what he wants to do, perhaps tonight we'll get the answer."

An Xuetang shrugged, "Since it has come to pass, I'll just accept it. Oh right Jing, I haven't made you medicine today, let me go see what's in the kitchen and make some for you."

I have already had the servants stew it, Sugar will take a rest today.

As An Xuetang was about to say something else, a woman had already brought in a bowl of medicinal soup.

Since Mo Yunjing's medicine has already been made, An Xuetang naturally won't bother making it again.

Taking the bowl, An Xuetang blew on it for him. Mo Yunjing's eyes lit up and he just stared at her.

"Ah Jing, have you taken your medicine"

"Hmm." Mo Yunjing took the bowl, and just as he was about to bring it to his lips, the woman standing beside him suddenly collapsed.

“......”

An Xuetang's face changed, she quickly got up to check on her.

The woman's face began to turn blue, her lips purple. An Xue Tang quickly grabbed her wrist and felt her pulse, which was very disordered. This was clearly a sign of poisoning.

Poisoned

An Xuetang was startled. Without a word, she rushed over and knocked the bowl of soup from Mo Yunjing's hand, looking at him with a hint of panic. "Ah Jing, you...you drank it"'s expression became. An Xue Tang could sense it, and she silently followed by his side.Soon, they finally reached the top of the mountain. The young monk led them to a meditation room and opened the...
