Xianfei smiled in Wei An's direction. Seeing Wei An was stunned by his surprise, she smiled slowly and shook her head, saying, "Although the wedding date has been set, there have been some problems with the bride..." She sighed and lowered her head as if inadvertently, "I don't know what happened. The bride said that Third Young Master Lin was not sincere in marrying her, and she is making a fuss and refusing to marry."
Wei An immediately understood what Concubine Xian meant by this behavior. She frowned, and the smile on her face had already disappeared bit by bit. After a long while, she said, "That's really not a coincidence."
It was no secret that Young Master Lin had once asked Concubine Lin Shu to marry her. Most of the prominent people in the capital knew about it. So whenever there was any problem in Young Master Lin's marriage, others would suspect that it was because of her. This was really something that could not be helped and was very frustrating.
However, Wei An quickly came back to her senses from her depression. She was no longer angry. She was more worried about what happened between Third Young Master Lin and Fourth Miss Mei. Third Young Master Lin had done his best for both her and Shen Chen. She had already regarded Third Young Master Lin as her brother. She looked at him the same as she looked at Xie Liangcheng. If the marriage that Third Young Master Lin had finally arranged changed again, she would really feel it was a pity.
So she couldn't help but ask, "This marriage was made with the intention of His Majesty, how could there be any mistakes?"
Concubine Xian raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "That's right. I don't know what happened, but Fourth Miss Mei just doesn't want to get married. She was very happy when she promised to marry her, but now she says she doesn't want to get married and it seems like she really doesn't want to get married. I heard that she almost left the city yesterday, saying that she would rather become a nun than get married. I don't know what happened."
She said she didn't know what happened, but her eyes and attitude clearly showed that she knew the inside story. Wei An lowered her eyes and pondered the deep meaning of what Concubine Xian said to her for a while. After coming out, she went straight to the Noble Concubine's Chuxiu Palace. Because it was the Noble Concubine who read the will in front of all the ministers in the cabinet, Emperor Qingyuan respected the Noble Concubine very much. The Chuxiu Palace had been renovated, and the colorful paint on the pillars was newly applied. The whole palace looked magnificent. After entering the inner hall, she felt that the furnishings were more luxurious than those in the Lanyue Palace.
The noble concubine was playing with the child. When she saw her, she smiled and quickly asked someone to bring Prince Shen to her side. She wiped the sweat off his face and handed him to the nurse. She looked at Wei An and asked gently, "Why are you here?"
These days, although the decree to confer the title of king has been issued, Wei An has always stayed in his own palace and has not gone out. After his status was completely confirmed, he went to pay his respects to himself and Concubine Xian. The rest of the time, he stayed indoors most of the time. This was the first time that he came directly to her like this.
Seeing that she was in good spirits and Prince Shen looked much better, Wei An felt relieved. He shook his head and talked about the marriage between Young Master Lin and Young Miss Mei: "I heard that...something happened again? I heard about it from Concubine Xian, and I felt a little uneasy, so I came to ask you...if anything happened?"
When the noble concubine heard that it was about her brother, the smile on her face gradually faded. She rubbed her temples with her fingers as if she was tired, and then sneered sarcastically: "Some problems have occurred. Originally, it was indeed agreed upon, and even the wedding date was set. Everything was going according to plan, but just a few days ago...something went wrong, and the other side refused to marry."
It turned out to be true. Wei An frowned, feeling a little surprised. If something really happened, why didn't she hear anything? Although she was in the palace now, her own information channels were blocked and no longer needed, but there was still Shen Chen. Shen Chen should be more informed than anyone else. Why didn't Shen Chen tell her about this
She felt full of questions, so she couldn't help but ask Concubine Xian: "What's the reason? The Mei family had already agreed before, and I think Fourth Miss Mei is a very decisive person... Since she has made up her mind, why did she suddenly change her mind?"
The noble concubine glanced at her, seemed a little hesitant, and finally shook her head.
Wei An's heart skipped a beat when she looked at him. This look... reminded her of the way Concubine Xian hesitated to speak before. She immediately guessed that this matter might be related to her. She couldn't help but shout in her heart that she was wronged, and was a little puzzled: "Did Fourth Miss Mei misunderstand something?"
It can be said that she and the Third Young Master had always been abiding by the rules and had never crossed any boundaries. Fourth Miss Mei had already known that the Third Young Master had proposed to her and had accepted it. Why did she suddenly regret the marriage when the wedding date had already been set? She had been living in the palace recently. Could there be a loophole for someone to exploit and frame her
The noble concubine knew that she had guessed it from her expression. She sighed and coughed a few times, feeling a little embarrassed, but she still told Wei An the truth: "After all, this matter cannot be blamed on anyone. If anyone should be blamed, it should be me and the third young master's stepmother... If she hadn't 'accidentally' let the Mei family find a handkerchief in the third young master's room when they came to our house with gifts, there wouldn't have been so many things going on."
A handkerchief? Wei An was somewhat confused. She remembered what Shen Chen had told her before when they were outside. Yuqing's brother got something from Yuqing, such as her handkerchief, but this matter had already been quietly resolved by Shen Chen... She had a headache thinking about it, and could not help but say, "I have never had any private dealings with the Third Young Master..."
"I know everything." The noble concubine hurriedly comforted her and said with a bitter smile: "Speaking of which, this thing was left by the Third Young Master himself, but this does not mean anything. After all, he has a lot of things to do, and he probably forgot about it later. It's a pity that the thing was discovered. Fourth Miss Mei said that this handkerchief is secondary. The Third Young Master has never written a letter to her in these days, not even to report that he is safe. This is the most important thing. She said that the Third Young Master does not like her at all, and he wants to marry her only because he saved her on the mountain that day and was seen by others, so he is responsible."
Actually, this is just some angry words. Although Wei An is an outsider, he can also see the changes in Young Master Lin in recent days. He looks as cold as an iceberg and seems to care about nothing, but recently he always asks Shen Chen to help Fourth Miss Mei solve problems. Fourth Miss Mei's cousin was also solved by Young Master Lin. If he didn't care, how could he do this
