Wei An held the letter in his hand, his white, slender fingers were sunken, and after a while he lowered his eyelids and asked Tian Bo: "Have the princess read these letters?"
After Princess Zheng gave birth to a child, she became more timid and easily sad. If she had read this letter, she would have been even more worried. No wonder Tian Bo was in a hurry to find her.
Tian Bo nodded. Seeing that Wei An's face was not looking good, he was also very anxious. He asked her: "Princess, do you want to think of a solution? The prince... Although he is temporarily safe now, who knows what will happen in the future? If it is really as Xuesong and the others said, then someone is deliberately trying to harm the prince! What if they succeed?!"
He really knows how to pick the right time to do evil, just to take advantage of this moment, while Prince Linjiang and Shen Chen are all focused on Emperor Longqing and the court officials, and can't be distracted to take care of Shandong's affairs. Shandong is now in a war and information is not available...
Just like this letter, the date of this letter is still early November, but now it is already the first day of the new year!
During this time, I don’t know whether Xuesong and King Zheng have moved to a new place to hide, whether they are still safe, and whether they have continued to write and send other letters back... ..
Tian Bo was so anxious that his mouth was bubbling. He was an old man who had followed King Zheng for many years. King Zheng was the only one in his heart. He served King Zheng wholeheartedly and wanted King Zheng to be safe.
Now that he knew that it was someone in the Linjiang Palace who wanted to harm Prince Zheng, how could he feel at ease
Wei An frowned, quickly put the letter away, and comforted him softly: "I understand, don't worry for now, and don't say anything too serious in front of the princess, I will think of a way."
Tian Bo responded, and when he saw her put the letter on the candle flame and burn it, he looked at her with some surprise: "Won't the princess tell the Marquis of Pingxi about this?"
He saw how good Shen Chen was to Wei An, and Shen Chen had put in a lot of effort in finding King Zheng, which could almost be said to be a great effort.
Although the letter written by King Zheng to Shen Chen did not contain any important information, doesn’t it mean that Wei An can tell Shen Chen the same
Tian Bo was a little worried that Wei An would have disagreements and awkwardness with Shen Chen because of this matter, so he hurriedly advised her: "Princess, the Marquis is not a person who does not know right from wrong. He knows everything in his heart, just like the matter of Lord Xu this time..."
Tian Bo stopped talking - this matter was still fresh in the air - Princess Linjiang had said bluntly at the New Year's Eve banquet in the palace that she liked Xu Anying's granddaughter and wanted to take her home to be her daughter-in-law. Everyone saw what Princess Linjiang meant, but they didn't expect that today, on the first day of the new year, early in the morning, they would run into Xu Anying's wife who came to the palace to pay New Year's greetings. Princess Linjiang asked Chu Jingwu to greet them, and Chu Jingwu bluntly said that the Xu family was overstepping their authority, and that the girl from the Xu family did not have an imperial decree and was not qualified to enter the palace for an audience.
He also said that although Princess Linjiang had asked Miss Xu to come to the palace more often and get closer to her, she had never been so arrogant.
This statement was almost as good as pointing fingers at the Xu family and saying that the Xu family was trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful and would do anything to get what they wanted.
Xu Anying's wife was humiliated, and even Princess Linjiang did not expect her son to be so rude and mean in public, so she scolded him.
But even though he was scolding her, Chu Jingwu's words in front of so many people clearly showed his opposition to this marriage.
He has already said so. If the Xu family sends their daughter up further, it would seem a little too eager for quick success and would probably cause people all over the world to laugh at them.
It was obvious at first glance that this was the work of Shen Chen and Chu Jingwu.
What's more, Shen Chen had prepared a back-up plan - Mrs. Chen also smiled and said that the girl from the Xu family was innocent and naive, and had the favor of Princess Linjiang, so she was naturally different from others.
Once these words were spoken, Princess Linjiang's path was basically blocked.
It's not impossible for Princess Linjiang to choose the granddaughter of the elder as her daughter-in-law before she even takes the throne, but it was not obvious at the beginning. Now her intentions are revealed in front of everyone, which makes the Xu family lose face. After all, the Xu family is a clean family.
There was naturally no problem with Princess Linjiang. She was a princess, and she was about to ascend to the throne. No matter how noble someone was, they were not as noble as her and her son. She thought every girl was good. But for the Xu family, if they still tried to get in on the act at this time, they would inevitably be questioned as paving the way in advance.
Not only would it offend Emperor Longqing and those old ministers, but it would also affect his future prospects - every master is afraid of such a fickle person.
Shen Chen's plan was ruthless and accurate. With just a few words, he destroyed the Xu family's plan to form an alliance with Princess Linjiang.
Tian Bo always felt that Shen Chen treated Wei An well enough, and didn't want Wei An to have a grudge against Shen Chen because of this matter. After all, Shen Chen must have been very clear-headed before Princess Linjiang was with her.
Wei An smiled and said, "I know what you mean. Don't worry. I just think that I can just tell him the news orally. There's no need to keep these letters. Go back first and tell the princess not to worry. I will work with Shen Chen to find a solution. Please just take care of yourself."
Tian Bo was relieved to see that she really didn't look angry. He said yes, kowtowed to Wei An, wished him a happy new year and said auspicious words before going back.
Wei An thought about it and asked Lan He to call Lin Yue and the others in.
Lin Yue is now following Lin Hai to learn things, but fortunately Lin Hai did not take Lin Yue with the masters when they went to offer sacrifices to the sky today, thinking that he was too young to lead the group. Lan He found the person without much effort and brought him in.
When Wei An saw him, he told him not to bow before he knelt down, and then said, "Go do something for me. Ask Master Jinghui from Puci Temple to go to Prince Zheng's Palace."
Lin Yue blinked, not understanding what was going on, but Wei An's orders always had a reason, so he asked Wei An with his hands folded, "Do you need to tell her what to say?"
After following Wei An for a long time, he became more shrewd and knew how to think three steps ahead before doing anything.
Wei An nodded: "Just tell Master Jinghui that the princess was worried about the prince's whereabouts every day and couldn't sleep at night, so she was attacked by the evil spirit..."
Lin Yue was still confused, but he knew that Wei An had a reason for doing this. Seeing that Wei An only said this and did not continue, he knew that he had no other instructions, so he quickly agreed and turned around and left without wasting a moment. (To be continued)
