Wei An didn't understand. She knew what Mrs. Wei was thinking, but she also knew what Mrs. Wei was worried about. When she heard her say that, she looked at her worriedly and asked, "Are you willing to accept that?"
"Whether you are willing or not, what does it matter?" Old Madam Wei sneered this time. She looked at Wei An and Shen Chen, raised her eyebrows and said, "If I am unwilling, will I make a fuss? Then what will you do? How will you cope with it? What about the lives of so many people in the Wei family, and Ming Jing's future? Don't you want these things? Besides, even if the case is overturned, what can it do? No one in the Ming family will come back to life..."
The dead cannot be resurrected. In the past, Old Lady Wei still had the desire to fight for it, but now, after she really thought it through, she no longer had any desire at all - the price was too high.
Shen Chen could not help but remain silent for a moment. Just as he was about to say something, someone came to report that Third Young Master Lin wanted to see him and was waiting outside. Now that all the affairs in the palace had not been dealt with, the rules were not as strict as they were during the reign of Emperor Longqing. Therefore, Third Young Master Lin had the tacit consent of Prince Linjiang and could often come to Lanyue Palace to see Concubine Lin Shu and the Sixth Prince. When they heard that he was coming, Shen Chen and Wei An both relaxed their brows and asked someone to invite him in.
When Lin Sanshao came in, he greeted Old Madam Wei first, and then told Old Madam Wei and Shen Chen Wei'an about the King of Linjiang asking the Jinyiwei to interrogate Madam Qin San and Eunuch Huang: "I have never seen the prince so angry, it seems that he is really angry." He looked at Old Madam Wei and said: "Old Madam, please forgive me for being so presumptuous, why does this matter involve so many people?"
When Su Jia came to tell him about this case, he knew it was related to Old Madam Wei, so he was already a little wary and thought he should ask Old Madam Wei's opinion first.
Old Madam Wei had already heard from Shen Chen about Third Young Master Lin's efforts for this matter, so she had nothing to hide and told him about Liu Cheng: "He was furious because he wanted to find out who knew about what happened back then and used it to plot against me. In the final analysis, he was angry that what he did back then might be exposed to the public one day."
Young Master Lin suddenly realized why Prince Linjiang had been keeping an eye on this matter and had to send people to the Qin family to imprison Madam Qin San. He could not help but frown, "We can't get anything out of Eunuch Huang. He is very tight-lipped. He just admitted that he deliberately led the old lady to see Liu Cheng, but he didn't say who was behind it. The prince was furious and has ordered the Jinyiwei to conduct a strict interrogation, and to interrogate the godsons and apprentices brought by Liu Cheng."
Shen Chen and Young Master Lin exchanged a glance, and then advised Old Lady Wei: "If this is the case, then you should come up with a plan sooner rather than later. If you continue to pursue this matter..."
If the matter gets too out of hand, it will be hard to guarantee which direction it will develop in. If those people insist on saying that Liu Cheng revealed something during the interrogation, then it will be difficult for Old Lady Wei to explain clearly.
Old Madam Wei's patience has been exhausted. She can no longer bear it. She is clearly a victim, but she still has to conceal the truth so painstakingly, fearing that these things will be revealed. These things were all instigated by those busybodies. She wished she had never known about what happened back then, and even more wished she had never heard of these things... And all this was because of the people from the Xu and Qin families. They had already shown their weapons. If she backed down, they would not let her go. They would only think she was weak and could be bullied, which was even more ridiculous.
So Old Lady Wei asked Shen Chen and Third Master Lin impatiently: "Did you, the Jinyiwei, interrogate Liu Cheng's apprentice?"
The people from the Qin family and the Xu family might indeed be very capable, and Madam Qin San and Eunuch Huang did indeed say nothing, but what about Liu Cheng's apprentice
It is possible that they know nothing, but the question is, what if someone lets them know
Old Madam Wei was extremely disgusted with being schemed against and pushed on stage as a puppet. She coldly reminded Shen Chen and Lin Sanshao: "Let Liu Cheng's apprentice know who forced him to find me. Isn't this what the prince wants to know the most? Since they want to use this incident to provoke the prince, then we will fulfill their wish."
It's just that the targets have changed. Originally, it should have been Old Madam Wei who revealed this matter, and it should have been Old Madam Wei who was hated and feared by King Linjiang. But now it is different. Now it has become the Qin family and the Xu family who want to use this matter to deal with the Wei family. For King Linjiang, I am afraid that the latter will make him even more disgusted.
Prince Linjiang is not the indecisive Emperor Longqing.
Besides, the Qin family is indeed annoying enough. How deep is the hatred between them that they would use old events to stir up hatred in people's hearts and make them irreparable
Wei An had been silent until he heard what Old Lady Wei said. He raised his head, looked at Young Master Lin and Shen Chen, and nodded slowly: "Yes, what Old Lady said is true. We can't just sit there and take the beating. The Qin and Xu families treat us like this because they think we are easy to bully. It's been like this over and over again. It's really annoying."
Since the death of Master Xu San still cannot make them truly wake up and stop, then let's make a bigger fuss and see who will be punished in the end.
Young Master Lin did not say anything else. This was originally someone else's family affair. They made their own decision and it was what it was. There was nothing to say. Besides, since the Xu and Qin families had the courage to harm others, they should naturally bear the corresponding consequences.
He hummed, then nodded and stood up: "I'll make arrangements. The prince has handed this matter over to Su Jia. I'll go and tell Su Jia a few words."
Su Jia would naturally find a way to let Liu Cheng's apprentice know what to say. King Linjiang wanted to find the real mastermind behind the scenes anyway, and they were just helping him.
Old Madam Wei also added some of what Liu Cheng had said before. After Third Master Lin had listened carefully, she said to him apologetically, "I'm so sorry, Third Master, for always bringing these things to you and making you take such a big risk."
Young Master Lin is now the King of Linjiang's man. Although he is not a particularly close confidant, he is not bad either. If King of Linjiang knew that he had done this for the Wei family, then Young Master Lin's future would actually be very limited.
He didn't take it seriously. Seeing what Old Lady Wei said, he just made a joke: "If I could really be a rich and idle person, that would be good. I wouldn't have to stay at the center of the storm and be worried all the time." (To be continued)
