Before she could say a word, Wang rushed over eagerly to lift the curtain of the carriage.
But Liu Lan had already made it clear to the people she’d brought with her: unless she herself wanted to get out of the carriage, no one else could force her. And no one was allowed to lift the carriage curtain.
The people sent by An Xuetang have received orders that as long as Empress Liu doesn’t make any outrageous demands, they are willing to satisfy her with minor requests.
As Wang shi rushed forward, attempting to lift the curtain of the carriage, a servant from Prince Beijang’s Residence immediately reached out and shoved her back.
At her age, Wang couldn’t withstand being shoved by such a burly man. She fell straight to the ground, wincing in pain.
Given Wang’s temperament, she would have wanted to cry and make a scene. However, Liu Yanhui had already guessed her intentions, and they were currently outside the manor.
By now, quite a few commoners had gathered here. If they saw the Wangs making a scene and acting like bullies, it would be embarrassing for Liu Yan’er.
Her daughter and son, Liu Yan’er, are both unmarried. She ruined her reputation trying to gain fame, but in the end, it was she and her children who suffered the consequences.
Thus, the moment Wang was pushed over, Liu Yaner swiftly looked at the housekeeper beside her and said, “Housekeeper, quickly help Madam back to the house to rest. There are too many people here, if she is not careful, something might happen to her.”
The steward understood Liu Yan’er’s meaning and hurriedly bowed, responding with “Yes” before unceremoniously pulling Mrs. Wang up.
Mrs. Wang also wanted to let him go, but the steward whispered in her ear, “If you don’t want to be punished by Madam later, just stop making a fuss.”

It’s enough to occasionally use her role as mother-in-law to ask Liu Yǎner for something. She is also smart and wouldn’t make unreasonable demands, otherwise, Liu Yǎner and An Jiāxīn would truly make it impossible for her to handle them.
So after being threatened by the housekeeper, she had managed to swallow her insults that were about to burst out.
After being brought into the mansion, An Nanlin carefully walked to the carriage. “A Tang,” she said, “Your grandmother misses you dearly. Not only your grandmother, but also your younger siblings miss you very much. Come down quickly, let’s go home first and have a chat.”
Hearing An Nanlin and Liu Yaner speak in humbled tones, Liu Lan felt immense satisfaction in her heart. Seeing that things were nearly done, she cleared her throat.
Someone from the Prince’s Mansion of the Northern Frontier rushed forward, lifted the curtain, and helped her slowly down.
Upon seeing that it was Liu, Annan Lin and Liu Yaner were both taken aback.
Then, An Nanlin showed an extremely ecstatic expression. Liu Yanhui, standing beside him, subconsciously turned her head to look at him. Seeing his expression, she almost wanted to attack him in front of so many people.
Liu Yaner glared fiercely at An Nanlin, but because there were onlookers, she didn’t want to give people the impression of being a shrew and held back.
An Nanlin was completely oblivious to Liu Yaner’s gaze at this moment. His eyes were fixed on Liu Lan, a possessiveness in his gaze that caused Liu Lan to quirk her lips slightly.
At this moment, Annanlin took a step forward and eagerly reached out to take Liu Lan’s hand, but Liu Lan, who was in a different state now, wouldn’t let him grasp her so easily.
Only then did Liu Lan take a step back, staring at him with icy coldness.
Annan Lin awkwardly retracted his hand and said, “You… you’re fine? Then why didn’t you go home? These days, I…”
“Anne-Marie!”
Liu Yan’er’s icy voice cut through Annan Lin’s words, her crimson eyes burning into him.
Liu Yaner knew in her heart that if she didn’t speak up to stop An Nalin, he would definitely say some inappropriate things to this woman right in front of so many people, even in front of her as his legitimate wife!
Once he did that, how would everyone view her as his legitimate wife?
An Nánlín had always believed himself to be the father-in-law of the Northern Border King, so these days he was not afraid of Liu Yǎnr at all.
He didn’t care about Liu Yaner’s anger at all. At this moment, he just glanced sideways at Liu Yaner and then looked at Liu Lan, “There are a lot of people here, let’s go in first.”
Liu Lan saw Liu Yan’er’s furious look and a triumphant smile appeared on her face:
“Where do you think you’re going? Annanlin, after you entered the capital, you abandoned your wife and child, clung to the丞相’s daughter, and left us mother and daughter in the countryside. Now you dare to talk about returning home? Where is my home? If I came back, what position would you arrange for me? A legitimate wife? A concubine?”
Today she came here just to vent her anger!

Upon hearing this from Liu Lan, Liu Yan’er clenched her fists and lowered her voice, saying, “What are you trying to do?”
Liu Lan let out a chuckle. Immediately after, she took a step towards Liu Yaner and, without saying a word, slapped her hard across the face.
