Chapter 150: How Thick-Skinned You Are
"Sir Guard, we are not outsiders. I know Wang Qian and I am here to find her." Old Lady Li said to the cold guard.
"Nonsense! When did our Princess Qian get to know a country old lady like you? Leave quickly." The guard looked at Old Lady Li with disdain.
"I really know Wang Qian. If you don't believe me, just ask her to come out and you'll know." Mrs. Li said loudly.
"Leave quickly, or I will be rude to you later." The guard looked impatient.
The prince issued an order yesterday that anyone who claimed to know Princess Qian would be driven away.
"What's the matter?" At this moment, Bai Kuo walked out.
When she saw Bai Kuo, Old Lady Li's eyes lit up.
Of course she knew Bai Kuo. Bai Kuo had accompanied Yan Li and the Old King of the North to Lijia Village before.
"Sir, do you still remember me? I am Li Ping's mother." Old Mrs. Li said to Bai Kuo.
"Remember, is there anything you need?" Bai Kuo's face was grim.
At this moment, he looked at Old Lady Li with sarcasm in his eyes.
"Sir, I'm here to look for Qian'er." Old Mrs. Li said.
"How dare you come to her? You abandoned her for no reason without even an explanation. If it weren't for Princess Qian's pleading for you, do you think you would still be standing here instead of being buried in the ground?" After saying this, Bai Kuo looked coldly at Old Lady Li.
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Li was so frightened that she took a few steps back.
Why is this Bai Kuo completely different from the last time I went to Lijia Village?
I had seen him in Lijia Village before. Although he was cold-blooded, he was not so heartless.
"Sir, please let us meet Wang Qian. We really have something to discuss with her." Old Mrs. Li still didn't want to give up.
"You'd better leave quickly. If you continue to pester and anger the prince, the consequences will not be something you can bear." Bai Kuo ignored them after saying this.
At this moment, the carriage of Prince Zhan's Palace stopped in front of the gate of Prince Bei's Palace.
Luo Yi lifted the curtain, and Prince Zhan got off the carriage holding Yan Li, followed closely by Prince Xiao.
Chen Si looked at the imposing King Zhan and the gentle King Xiao and became completely obsessed with them.
This was the first time she had seen such a handsome man.
Yan Li naturally also saw Old Lady Li and Chen Si in front of the Beiwang Mansion, and her face immediately turned cold.
I have already let them go, but I didn't expect them to still dare to come to my house. They are so bold.
"Little miracle doctor." When Old Lady Li saw Yan Li in King Zhan's arms, she rushed towards Yan Li.
"Stop." But before she could get close to Yan Li, she was stopped by Luo Yi.
Old Mrs. Li looked at Yan Li in King Zhan's arms with pleading eyes.
In her impression, Yan Li is a cute little elf, and she will definitely see her sincerity and help her.
"Little miracle doctor." Seeing that Yan Li was just looking at her coldly, Old Lady Li shouted again.
"Is there something wrong?" Yan Li looked down at her.
"Little miracle doctor, you have clearly cured Li Ping's legs, why is he disabled again this morning?" asked Old Mrs. Li.
"Li Ping clearly promised that he would never let Wang Qian down, and he agreed with us to come and propose marriage the next day. Why did he suddenly disappear without a trace and there is no news at all?" Yan Li said, looking coldly at Old Lady Li.
"Little doctor, please listen to my explanation. Her name is Chen Si. She is Li Ping's childhood sweetheart. They are in love with each other. We thought she had... Who knew that she came back that night? Li Ping had no choice but to do so." Old Mrs. Li argued.
"He can make a choice, why did he make us wait for a whole day without any news?" Yan Li's face was full of anger.
"This... this is indeed our fault. It is also because Li Ping is too embarrassed to face Qian'er. Little genius doctor, for Qian'er's sake, can you..."
"No!" Yan Li refused directly.
"You can obviously heal him, why are you unwilling to do so? What's the use of having such high medical skills?" Chen Si on the side yelled directly at Yan Li.
"I cured Li Ping before because of Wang Qian. Since he is not going to marry Wang Qian, there is no need for him to be treated." Yan Li's words made Old Lady Li feel cold all over.
Yan Li's words were an implicit admission that Li Ping became disabled again because of her.
"Since you have provided treatment, what difference does it make who Li Ping marries?" Chen Si spoke again.
"Of course there is a difference. Wang Qian is my grandfather's goddaughter, so she is naturally my aunt, so she has a noble life, and you, your life is cheap, you are not worthy of me to take action." Yan Li said coldly.
Chen Si was so angry that she was speechless when she heard this.
She glanced at King Zhan and King Xiao with a pitiful look. Perhaps these two handsome young men would help her?
Speaking of which, Chen Si is really ignorant. She doesn't even know King Zhan and King Xiao.
"Senior brother, let's go in." Yan Li said to the War King who was holding her.
"Okay." Prince Zhan nodded, holding Yan Li and walked into the Prince Bei's Palace.
"Little miracle doctor..." Old Lady Li and the others wanted to follow in but were stopped by the guards.
Looking at the guards with cold eyes, Mrs. Li and her daughter naturally did not dare to go any further.
"Mom, what should we do?" Chen Si looked at Old Lady Li.
"Si'er, let's go back." Old Mrs. Li finally realized that this was Yan Li's revenge for Li Ping abandoning Wang Qian.
"Mom, if we go back like this, what about Li Ping? Do I have to live with a disabled person forever?" Chen Si shouted.
"Si'er, this is your fate. You should live a good life with Li Ping. When you have a child in the future, you will have someone to rely on." Old Mrs. Li looked at Chen Si.
"No, I don't, mother, don't you see? There are better men in the world. Why should I live with a disabled man?" Chen Si said as she looked inside the Beiwang Mansion.
She thought of the King Zhan and King Xiao who amazed her.
"Si'er, you are already married, how can you still have such thoughts?" Old Mrs. Li was stunned by Chen Si's thoughts.
"Mom, don't worry about it for now, let's go home first." Chen Si had a plan in mind, so she took Old Lady Li out of the city and got on the ox cart they hired and returned to the village.
"Si'er, have you thought it through?" Old Mrs. Li looked at Chen Si.
"Mom, I have my own plans." Chen Si's eyes were uncertain.
How could I just accept my fate? How could I spend my whole life with a disabled person?
It was already dark when the two returned home.
Li Ping, who hadn't eaten for a day, was so hungry that he felt dizzy. When he saw Old Lady Li and her daughter coming back, his eyes lit up.
"Mom, Si'er, you're back." Li Ping looked at them.
"Ping'er, you must be hungry. I'll go cook for you." Only then did Old Mrs. Li remember that Li Ping had not eaten for a day.
"Brother Ping, I'm sorry. I did it for your legs. I didn't mean to let you starve." Chen Si walked forward with an apologetic look on her face.
