The Psychic Girl

Chapter 10: Apparent Engagement! Brotherly Transaction?

When she woke up, she felt weak all over. The first thing she saw was the person she least wanted to see. She felt really bad.

Think about it, I just took a medicinal herb, and my intention was to save someone, so why didn't my kindness get rewarded, and instead caused so much trouble?

After leaving the bed, Xia Xi was not restrained and sat directly on the stool in front of Yan Tianming.

Because of the memories of my past life, I still feel an indescribable disgust when I look at that face.

"I know the rules you set. I was the one who stole the Jueyu Grass! Everyone is responsible for their own actions. It has nothing to do with the Ye family. And the alchemist from the Jinquan Medicine Garden has nothing to do with him either. If you have anything to say, just come to me!"

Xia Xi spoke with great righteousness. She had never said such courageous words before, and even she was almost moved.

"Pharmacist Yan? So you are the one who took his herbs?"

Only at this moment did Yan Tianming understand why the lord of Yanjiabao, his adoptive father, came to Xia Xi.

"Alright, alright, don't pretend you don't know. I've admitted it. I still have something to ask you. There was a stupid slimy crocodile where you knocked me out. Did you see it? Did you do anything to it?"

Talking about this matter, Yan Tianming looked helpless. If he hadn't dragged that big guy all the way, he would have returned to Yanjiabao long ago.

"…It's fine. I didn't catch you to investigate that matter. If that's why you ran away, then you can rest assured. Besides, you and I are just having a marriage in name only for outsiders to see."

No need to die? A marriage for outsiders to see? Yan Tianming's words confused Xia Xi.

Yan Tianming continued.

"A maid will help you wash and dress you later. The wedding preparations will be arranged today. We don't have much time. We have to hold the ceremony tonight.

This is Tianshui City, thousands of miles away from the small golden spring. You'd better not plan to escape. Here, if you take a wrong step, you won't even know how you died."

As he spoke, he tilted his head back and drank the wine in the glass, his expression carrying a hint of melancholy and sadness that she couldn't understand.

"As for what happened that night, you'd better keep your mouth shut! Otherwise, not only you will die, but I will not let anyone in the Ye family go!"

As he spoke, he shot a fierce look at Xia Xi, making a threatening gesture.

The wine glass in his hand broke and scattered on the table.

After Yan Tianming left, less than half an incense stick of time passed before a group of maids in lotus-colored silk skirts filed into the room and forced Xia Xi to bathe and change clothes.

The rosewood carved dressing table in front of me exudes a faint and cool fragrance.

The hollow carved bronze mirror inlaid with mutton-fat jade actually reflected a bit of the charm of her pretty face.

She was powerless to resist, or she didn't know how to react, so she could only let the maid do whatever she wanted.

She seemed very confident when she was bragging, but the fact was that she was too weak now and had no chance to fight back.

There are no wedding banquets or relatives or friends, and no sound of firecrackers.

This wedding was extremely strange.

After being carried by Yan Tianming's two men to undergo a simple wedding ceremony, Xia Xi, dressed as a bride, was tied up and carried into a side room far away from the main courtyard.

Through the veil, one could see that the room was hung with red silk. Compared to the coldness outside, there was a stronger atmosphere of a newlywed couple in here.

Xia Xi was thrown on the bed with her hands and feet tied up. At this moment, she was moving slowly towards the edge of the bed like a worm.

But because he used too much force, he ended up falling heavily from the soft bed to the ground.

There were two strange steps placed beside the bed, and Xia Xi's right arm just happened to hit the protruding corner of the step, causing her to scream in pain while secretly cursing in her heart.

No matter it is Fang Xuan in the previous life or Yan Tianming now, nothing good will happen if you meet someone with that face.

After trying several times and tripping over the complicated wedding dress, she decisively gave up the idea of ​​jumping to the door.

Since I knew I couldn't escape anyway, why bother? I just sat on the ground, leaned against the bed and started to rest.

I don't know how long I sat on the ground.

When Xia Xi felt her lower body was numb, the closed door was suddenly opened.

"What are you doing lying on the ground?"

It was Yan Tianming's voice, and he was looking at Xia Xi on the ground with a strange look.

This woman's behavior always made him unable to understand.

"Cool! Come on! I'd love to, what do you think?"

In fact, it is already autumn and the weather is getting cooler.

Sitting on the smooth marble surface, she regretted not staying in bed.

But when facing Yan Tianming, he always felt angry.

While talking to him, there was a faint, soothing scent of herbs lingering in the air.

At this time, Xia Xi didn't know that the alchemist who saved her was now in this room.

The long veil covered the bride's face, and Yan Zini didn't know who was under the veil.

Today was the day when Yanjiabao announced that they were going to marry his sworn brother, but they had not sent out wedding invitations or invited any guests. It was as if they were rushing to prove that the marriage was going to happen. He knew there must be something behind this, but he had no interest in what his father and sworn brother were doing behind their backs, and he was even less willing to get involved. He just wanted to be a good pharmacist.

This should have been Yan Tianming's wedding night. Yan Zini didn't understand why he brought her here, so she turned the wooden chair and was about to leave.

Tian Ming immediately stood in front of Yan Zini, blocking his way.

Hearing the sound of friction and rotation in the room, Xia Xi immediately noticed it.

"Who? Is anyone else there? Hello? Hey! Are you talking? Yan Tianming." Xia Xi on the ground quickly pricked up his ears, trying to hear some information.

Yan Zini couldn't hear her voice, so naturally he couldn't recognize Xia Xi.

“I know you don’t want to talk to me anymore after that incident, so just listen to me.

The Prince of the Palace wants to form an alliance with Yanjiabao, and has told my adoptive father many times that he wants me to marry the princess. You know that Yanjiabao cannot participate in the struggle of the royal family, so my adoptive father found a girl with a simple family background for me to propose marriage. Do you know who that girl is? "

His lips trembled but no sound came out. He didn't want Xia Xi to know what happened in Yanjiabao, but he knew very well that Zi Ni could understand.

"I came to the Yan family when you were five years old. In the past sixteen years, I have never seen you give the herbs you grew to others."

Yan Zini, who was about to leave, saw his words and immediately understood what Yan Tianming meant.

His eyes sparkled for a moment, but it quickly faded into deep anger.

He tried his best to control his emotions.

He had clearly instructed not to reveal the fact that anyone had been to the medicine garden and not to let them cause trouble for Xia Xi, but now, he turned his head to look at the woman who was still tied up and sitting on the ground.
