As for Prince Zheng, he had tried to enter the palace several times, but was ruthlessly beaten back by Emperor Longqing the previous times. Even Wei An did not let him see him. After the dust settled a few days ago, someone surrounded Prince Zheng's mansion. Prince Zheng could not even leave the mansion, let alone enter the palace.
There has been no news about Wei An, but the people in the Wei family have been comforting themselves that no news is the best news. Now, after hearing what Madam Qin San said, Madam Wei couldn't stand it anymore and asked her breathlessly: "Madam Qin San, what do you mean? What happened to An An?"
"It seems that..." Madam Qin San was a little embarrassed. She watched the anxious expressions of Madam San and Old Madam Wei calmly and refused to speak out clearly until she had almost whetted people's appetite. Then she sighed and said, "I heard it from others. I heard that the princess thought something happened in the palace that night, so she ran away with the Sixth Prince. Who knew that she happened to meet the soldiers who were protecting the emperor on the way, and the two sides had a conflict, and the princess..."
The third wife was shocked and couldn't help asking, "Is... is he dead?!"
What should I do?! The Third Madam immediately remembered what Shen Chen said when he came before. Wei An was a hostage in the palace. Could it be that the Prince of Linjiang wanted to seize the throne, so Wei An was killed by the furious Emperor Longqing?! This is not impossible. After all, anyone would be extremely angry after being betrayed... ... .
Old Madam Wei felt her scalp tingling. Mrs. Qin San spoke so confidently that it didn't seem like she was lying. Besides, there was nothing worth lying about. From the Qin family's point of view, it seemed more like she was showing off her power...
She felt as if a string in her mind suddenly broke, and she was so excited that she vomited blood.
The Wei family immediately became chaotic. The Third Madam, who had always been good at managing the household, cried out and hurriedly asked someone to call the doctor and notify the masters outside. Even the Third Madam Qin did not even bother to entertain them. She ran to the bedside and supported Mrs. Wei, choking and shaking her head: "Mom! Take care of yourself..."
Old Madam Wei waved her hands. After vomiting a mouthful of blood, she felt much clearer. She focused her attention on Madam Qin San and asked her while supporting herself: "We in the Wei family have not heard of this news yet. I wonder where you got it from?"
Heard? Who told them? This kind of thing is a palace secret, and it shouldn't be leaked. Even if Wei An's death is to be announced in the future, there will be an official statement. Why did the Qin family inform them instead? What is the purpose of the Qin family coming here to say this
Old Lady Wei could not think of any other reason except that he was showing off or taking revenge because of the previous death of Princess Linjiang.
Therefore, even though her heart was filled with grief and pain because of the news, she still held it back and looked at Madam Qin San seriously, asking for an answer.
Mrs. Qin San was a little frightened by her gaze. In her heart, she blamed her parents-in-law for forcing her to say these words, but she remained calm and composed. She pursed her lips and let out a long sigh of pity: "The princess died so tragically. How long had she been married? Not even a month had passed, and she lost her life... I heard that when she was found in the palace, she was unrecognizable..."
Old Mrs. Wei couldn't bear it anymore. No matter what Mrs. Qin San's purpose was in saying this, she couldn't help but feel heartbroken when she thought of Wei An suffering like this.
Elderly people cannot stand stimulation. Madam Wei San caressed her chest and turned back to look at Madam Qin San: "Madam Qin San! The old lady is old and cannot stand such stimulation. Please go back first!"
If she really just wanted to report the news out of kindness, why didn't she tell anyone? Why didn't she tell anyone when I asked her just now, and only said this to the old lady now? It's obvious that she was deliberately trying to irritate me.
Madam Qin San uttered a cry, as if she was frightened. She stood by and didn't move. Seeing that Old Madam Wei's face had turned blue with anger, she knew that she must be very angry. Then she patted her chest and shook her head: "I just felt sorry for the princess after hearing the news, so I said this... But I don't know the specific situation. Madam, please don't get sick from anger... Otherwise, wouldn't it be my fault?"
Madam Wei San was so angry that the veins on her forehead were throbbing. She finally managed to appease Madam Wei, then she stepped forward and pulled Madam Qin San. She didn't care about anything else at this time, and pulled her out directly: "I thought you had already heard the exact news, but it turned out to be hearsay. How can you say such things if you are not sure? What if our old lady is frightened and angry and has a physical injury? What should we, the younger generation, do to you to seek justice? You are too gullible!"
Madam Qin San sighed and looked past her at the old lady behind her: "What do you mean you don't know whether it's true or not? I only came to tell the old lady because the princess is so lovable, so that you won't be able to find her when she dies! How can it be considered that I believe everything I hear? Forget it, it's hard to be a good person, I don't care!"
Madam Wei San was so angry with her that she didn't know what this person was trying to do by coming and leaving inexplicably. She waited until the third master and others came back before she told them about the matter.
The old doctor came in person to see Old Madam Wei. When Old Madam Wei woke up, she heard the Third Master and the others talking about this matter. Everyone felt that Third Madam Qin had ulterior motives in coming to say this.
The two families are not related at all. Are they really trying to save face for the Wei family just because Wei An died
Even if Wei An was really dead, the Qin family was more interested in seeing the joke than in currying favor.
Old Madam Wei coughed, and seeing her children rushing over, she struggled to support the Third Madam's hand and sat up, saying firmly, "Prepare the imperial edict and clothes for me. I want to go to the palace."
Regardless of whether this matter was true or false, she had to know what happened to Wei An.
The third master was stunned for a moment before he reacted and asked her hesitantly: "How is your body..."
Mrs. Wei was old, and she was unstable after a shock, so the Third Master was afraid that something might happen to her if she entered the palace. The Second Master and his wife who came later also hurriedly tried to stop her, saying that they should first ask someone to see if they could find Third Master Lin.
Young Master Lin has a close relationship with the Wei family. If we can find him, we will know the exact news. (To be continued)
