Shen Chen's information channel was so fast that Xu Anying was a little surprised. He had intentionally transferred Shen Chen away from the previous uprising, but he didn't expect that Shen Chen still got the news from somewhere and rushed back at full speed. He had already checked and found that when Shen Chen came back, three horses died on the way, which showed how desperate he was.
Even so, Shen Chen was extremely well-informed, probably comparable to the Jinyiwei. And it was the same now. It had only been two hours since Old Madam Wei entered the palace, and it had only been less than half an hour since she met Prince Linjiang. However, Shen Chen had already gotten wind of it and rushed over in advance.
When playing tricks in the palace, the speed of information dissemination is an extremely critical link. If Shen Chen had come earlier, it might have changed the trend of things. He looked at Shen Chen with a little more inquiry and scrutiny in his eyes. He laughed and looked at Shen Chen with a smile: "The prince has told the servants not to embarrass them, otherwise, wouldn't it be difficult for them to do it?"
These words made many eunuchs feel obedient. To be honest, they were worried all day long and their lives were very difficult. Although Prince Linjiang and Emperor Longqing were different in many ways, they had one thing in common - they treated eunuchs differently from other emperors. They did not favor the eunuchs around them.
Therefore, the eunuchs' lives became even more difficult, and they were easily blamed. If Shen Chen rushed in with so many people following him, he would definitely be fine, because everyone knew that he was the most trusted son of King Linjiang. However, those of them who were servants would definitely be miserable, and they would definitely have to go to the Palace Administration Office to receive punishment.
Shen Chen raised his eyebrows, glanced at Xu Anying, and suddenly asked him: "Old man, do you seem to be very free?"
This means that Xu Anying's meddling is really overreaching. Xu Anying knows this in her heart, but she has no intention of backing down. She chuckled and looked at Shen Chen as if he was looking at a child: "What are you talking about, Lord? At this time of year, who can be idle? But no matter how busy you are, you have to see what the situation is, right? The prince is very busy and toilsome. He is doing something important right now. I should wait a little longer."
Shen Chen, who rushed in regardless of the consequences, seemed not to be so sensible and tactful.
Shen Chen didn't care about the thorn in Xu Anying's words. On the contrary, Xu Anying's repeated obstruction made him more certain that these people had bad intentions.
He received the news that Old Lady Wei had come to the palace when he was accompanying Wei An to take medicine. He had been very busy these days. Prince Linjiang had assigned him the supervision of the renovation work of the Fengtian Palace, and he had been watching it all day long. Otherwise, if something went wrong during the coronation ceremony, it would really affect his future. Naturally, he would have less time to accompany Wei An. Before the two of them could say a few words, they heard Han Bo come in to report that Young Master Lin had sent someone to deliver the message, saying that Old Lady Wei had handed in a sign into the palace.
Wei An was stunned at the time, looked at Shen Chen and asked him: "Have you sent someone out of the palace to tell the Prince's Mansion and Dingbei Marquis' Mansion that I'm fine?"
Shen Chen was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "Before, I was only focused on confronting my father and didn't pay attention to it. But..."
However, no news about what happened in the palace could be received from the outside world. Those who knew how to write the news, such as Marquis Ping'an and Young Master Lin, were also in the palace. Logically speaking, the news that Wei An had gotten into trouble and escaped would not leak out and be known by Old Madam Wei. Before he left the capital, he made a special trip to Marquis Dingbei's Mansion to reassure the old lady and told her not to worry.
With Old Lady Wei's accomplishments, it was impossible for her to be unable to sit still at this time. Who could have guessed that King Linjiang would condone the Xu family's murder after successfully seizing the throne? We are not gods, and we cannot guess what others are thinking.
But why did Old Madam Wei come to the palace anyway? Unless someone had let her know that something happened in the palace, that something happened to Wei An, and had urged her to come to the palace.
That would be more troublesome. Wei An and Shen Chen looked at each other, and both guessed what the other was thinking. They couldn't help but frown. Wei An couldn't wait and stood up: "I want to go over and take a look."
In the final analysis, the friendship between Madam Wei and Prince Linjiang was just that, at most they were allies. Compared with the tolerance that Emperor Longqing showed to Madam Wei out of his inexplicable guilt, it was nothing, and Madam Wei was not worthy of any privilege in front of him.
The identity of King Linjiang is different now. Life and death are all decided by his thoughts. Wei An frowned and felt a little sick while holding the table. "Shen Chen, my grandmother raised me. If it weren't for her, I would have died long ago. Her coming to the palace is not accidental. She can't be so impatient. Someone must have said something to her, trying to use this incident to make my grandmother..."
Shen Chen already knew the second half of her unfinished words. He reached out and held her, frowning and shaking his head: "If someone deliberately went to her and spread the news that you were in trouble, and that's why she came to the palace, then you can't go. I'll go."
King Linjiang was extremely dissatisfied with Wei An. Although there had never been any direct conflict between the two, people were expected to die but failed to do so. To be honest, both sides must be feeling awkward and embarrassed. It would be a great smart move for him not to appear in front of him now. Otherwise, if he saw him too often, King Linjiang would think that Wei An was demonstrating.
Wei An frowned and instinctively refused to give in: "That's my grandmother..."
That was when she had nothing, and the only person who reached out to her and pulled her out of the sea of suffering was the old Princess Zhennan, who is no longer with us. This is the only old person she has ever truly trusted wholeheartedly.
Shen Chen firmly held her shoulders and comforted her softly: "I know, don't worry, I won't let anything happen to the old lady, she is also my grandmother."
As these memories flashed through his mind, Shen Chen's expression became even uglier. He looked coldly at Xu Anying in front of him, then at the bowing eunuch Huang, and asked in a deep voice: "If I were to go in today, what would you do to me?"
Eunuch Huang was stunned, and glanced at Xu Anying with some uneasiness. What on earth did this master mean? What did he mean by preparing to do something to him? Who dared to do anything to him? !
He didn't answer. Seeing Shen Chen's unfriendly expression, he subconsciously took a step back.
