Originally, there was only Nanny Hua serving in the room. When Wei An and Old Madam Wei brought up this topic, even Nanny Hua consciously left the room. The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Old Madam Wei took a sip of tea and sneered: "But anyone can do it, but it's impossible for the King of Linjiang..." She told Wei An: "When the incident happened in Yunnan, the King of Linjiang didn't get any benefits, and his brother-in-law, the Marquis of Pingxi, who held military power, died. And Shen Chen is not a fool, he is not really penniless..."
What's more, there was the incident where Shen Chen and Chu Jingwu were framed for the assassination of King Zheng.
Old Madam Wei patted the non-existent dust on her clothes and shook her head at her: "Well, there's no point in thinking about these things now. Wait until your third uncle comes back and then listen to him about what happened."
The third master came back a little late, and it was not until the sun set that he returned home. After entering the house, he hurried to the backyard to change into casual clothes, and then rushed to Mrs. Wei's yard.
He had no intention of finding out the purpose of the Fifth Master sending someone here. His whole mind was on the court dispute. He greeted Old Madam Wei and started talking about business.
"There are two very important things." The third master sighed. He has been on edge lately, so he has to tell Old Madam Wei about anything that has something to do with the Wei family.
After a pause, he said, "The first thing was what my son sent back this afternoon, about the Prince of Zhennan..."
The Third Master drank a sip of tea, and when he felt his throat was no longer smoking, he continued, "Before I came back from the government office, I had already received news that the emperor had kept the prince in the palace and had not sent him away. He had not done anything to the Prince of Zhennan, nor to his position as the commander of the Shenji Camp."
This was a bit unexpected. Mrs. Wei raised her eyebrows and motioned for him to continue.
"There is one more thing, it's about Third Young Master Lin." The Third Master couldn't help but glance at Wei An as he spoke, and then he said, "Third Young Master Lin sent someone to find me and gave me a message."
Young Master Lin actually sent someone to deliver a message to him. Even though he considered himself mature and prudent, he was still shocked.
I really didn't expect that Wei An could be related to Young Master Lin. This Xiao Qi has become really famous recently.
Old Mrs. Wei waited for him to speak.
The Third Master calmed down and said, "Young Master Lin said, it's a pity that the man from the Feng family was so slick that we couldn't get anything out of him after several interrogations. After being tortured several times, he died."
Wei An's expression only showed some change now.
The so-called escaped slave of the Feng family should have been arranged by the Cao family. He must know something. At the very least, he should be able to find out the truth. How could he die so easily
Ever since Cao Wen and Lin Sanshao came into being, the Jinyiwei was divided into two factions, the Southern Zhenfu Division and the Northern Zhenfu Division. But now it seems that both sides are not so clean.
Old Madam Wei also frowned: "Dead?"
How can the play continue after death
The Third Master also seemed a little uneasy: "Yes, he is dead. Third Master Lin said that since he is dead, he will try the method Xiao Qi said to lure the snake out of its hole."
This is what the third elder was really worried about. He didn't understand what advice Wei Qi had given to Third Young Master Lin, and why he had involved the Feng family's affairs.
Old Madam Wei looked at Wei An in surprise and asked, "Did you give him any other ideas?"
Wei An thought about it and shook his head honestly: "I just asked him to work on the escaped slave of the Feng family to verify whether it is what I thought. The Cao family wants to use a trick to frame the Feng family first, then deliberately help the Feng family to get justice, and then kill the person they really want to kill."
The third master was finally really surprised: "What is the person that the Cao family really wants to kill?"
Mrs. Wei didn't wait for Wei An to answer, and sneered lightly: "Of course it's our family, or... the Fang family."
The third master was horrified.
If that's really the case, it makes sense.
The Cao family has always had a grudge against the Feng family. When the third prince comes to the throne, Cao An will definitely be beheaded, so they wish the Feng family bad luck. However, when the Feng family is in trouble, their ambitions may be even greater.
Or maybe it wasn't that big of a deal, they just wanted to kill as many birds with one stone as possible and move away all the rocks that they thought were in the way.
But in this way, the Wei family has now escaped, and Shen Chen and Linjiang Palace have not been involved.
Will the Cao family and the people behind them restrain themselves or become even more aggressive
Judging from what happened to Prince Zhennan, it would be impossible for these people to restrain themselves. Among the three major camps, only the Shenji Camp is not controlled by the Cao family. But now the Cao family obviously wants to take action against the Shenji Camp.
Since you want to attack the Shenji Camp, how can you give up just because of some difficulties if you have other ambitions
He thought for a long time, but felt his mind getting more and more confused. Finally, he asked Wei An: "Then how do you lure the snake out of its hole?"
Wei An thought about it and smiled: "Probably to report Cao Wen, follow Cao Wen and Cao An's wishes, and let them think that Third Young Master Lin really wants to use the Feng family's affairs to bring them down."
The third master seemed to be thinking about something.
But what good is this? Even if Young Master Lin made a big fuss, isn't he still helping the Cao family
Old Madam Wei understood and sighed, "So that's how it is. After Third Master Lin reported the Cao family, Cao Wen naturally thought that Third Master Lin was determined to use the Feng family's affairs to bring them down. If they still want to plot against the Fang family, they will definitely have to make some moves. And once they make some moves..."
Once there is movement, that's a good time to grab hold of something.
"The key now is that we can give the Fang family a big gift." Wei An looked at Old Lady Wei, waiting for her decision: "Grandma, what do you think, Yang Qinghe, should we hand him over to the Fang family ourselves, or to the Linjiang Palace?"
Old Madam Wei did not hesitate at all on this point. There was no need to choose between the Fang family and the Linjiang Palace.
She looked at the Third Master, then at Wei An: "When we go to the Linjiang Palace tomorrow, Third Master, I will hand over a person to you. You must bring him to Chu Jingwu for me."
The third master straightened his back and even his waist, and said to Mrs. Wei seriously: "Don't worry, my son will definitely hand the person over to the town country..."
A sneer appeared on the corner of Mrs. Wei's lips.
She wanted to see whether the people behind the scenes could remain silent after the eunuchs of the Cao family were defeated, and whether the Cao family could resist exposing the people behind the scenes.
This is just the beginning. The Zhu family, the Yang family...
Cao An and the mastermind behind them must have thought that the Wei family was a dead snake and did not take them seriously. If they wanted to plot against them, then go ahead and she would let them taste the consequences of their negligence.
