For some reason, Wei An's mind was almost blank at that moment, but even so, she subconsciously lifted up her skirt, quickly went downstairs, ran down the stairs, and rushed towards Shen Chen.
Sometimes she always felt that her emotions were too restrained, and sometimes she always doubted that she would never love again and did not know how to love. However, after experiencing this incident, she finally understood clearly that it was not the case. She did not know when it started, but Shen Chen had already surpassed everything in her heart.
She can always have unlimited expectations for Shen Chen, because she always feels that Shen Chen will not let her down and that Shen Chen can do it.
When she was about to die, all she thought about was Shen Chen and things related to Shen Chen.
It was Shen Chen who healed her.
It was Shen Chen who completely pulled her out of the whirlpool of her previous life, allowing her to bid farewell to her previous self completely, because from this moment on, she would no longer be affected by her previous self in any way.
With these thoughts in her mind, she was not even aware of them, and she threw herself into Shen Chen's arms, hugging his waist tightly.
Shen Chen took two steps back before he stood firmly. He seemed to have not expected her to lose her composure like this. He lowered his head to look at her, rubbed his chin on the top of her head, and stretched out his hand to hold her tightly in his arms. After a while, he whispered, "I'm sorry for making you suffer."
His body was a little stiff, because even though they were separated by clothes, he could still sense Wei An's slight trembling - she was crying.
What Shen Chen didn't want to do most was to see her cry.
No one knew how much shock and grievance Wei An had suffered these days, just those people outside... ... Shen Chen's eyes were heavy, with a flash of ruthlessness and guilt, which eventually turned into a deep sigh. He hugged Wei An tighter, as if she was holding some rare treasure. He waited until Wei An was buried in his arms and did not move, then he picked her up and carried her upstairs.
After all, he knew Wei An better than anyone else, and he knew that she would be shy after losing her composure. He also knew that she didn't want others to see her like this.
Therefore, when Xuesong and the others who followed him came in, he whispered, "Deal with everything. If you encounter anyone who resists fiercely, kill them without mercy."
The general was so calm when he said this before, but now when Shen Chen said these four words, he was much colder than when they mentioned this word. Xuesong immediately understood and responded loudly.
Shen Chen had already carried Wei An upstairs and placed him on the bed.
Wei An's eyes were red from crying. Seeing Shen Chen looking down at him, he reached out and opened his eyes: "Let me be quiet for a while."
It was rare for her to feel so sad. After she woke up, she inevitably felt a little embarrassed, but this embarrassment only lasted for a moment. She immediately thought of something more important. She raised her head and glanced at Shen Chen fiercely. She realized belatedly that she was too emotional, so she asked him, "Is everything settled?"
When talking about this, Shen Chen's eyes darkened a little. After a while, he hummed, reached out his hand to touch Wei An's head, and whispered: "I rushed back in time and saw my father for the last time."
Yes, Shen Chen took Mr. Cen with him. They are both very skilled in Kung Fu and are very patient people. They will definitely be able to return in a few days.
Wei An tensed up when he mentioned this, so he leaned in his arms and waited silently for him to calm down before asking, "What happened?"
"The virtuous concubine and Chu Jing'an colluded with Xu Anying to poison the emperor." When Shen Chen talked about these things, the gloom in his eyes became even heavier: "When I rushed back, the emperor was only left with his last breath. Jingwu was under house arrest. It was said that the elixir Jingwu offered was poisonous..."
Wei An had already guessed that the matter must be related to Xu Anying and Concubine Yu, but he didn't expect them to be so bold. He couldn't help but sigh: "They are too bold."
"Although it's bold, it's indeed effective." Shen Chen sneered, "The palace is controlled by them. Except for Xu Anying and the elder he arranged to join the cabinet, other ministers cannot see the emperor. In addition, Concubine Yu controls the harem. As long as there is no accident like me, this matter will actually be successful."
Wei An saw that he had a cold expression when he talked about this matter, and his emotions did not fluctuate much, so he stood up and looked at him carefully before asking: "Then what happened? How did you meet the emperor?"
Xu Anying's people must have been informed of the situation and were on high alert. How did Shen Chen take advantage of the opportunity
"Thanks to Marquis Ping'an and Prince Zhennan." Shen Chen exhaled: "I didn't return to the capital immediately. The capital was under martial law at that time. I used many methods to return without attracting attention. Then, after observing for a while, I contacted Marquis Ping'an first..."
At that time, Marquis Ping'an was already unemployed at home, but he had been in charge of the imperial guards for a long time. Shen Chen and Mr. Cen managed to contact the old subordinates of King Linjiang and finally entered the palace.
What followed was naturally another all-out fight between the two sides. Shen Chen actually had a very hard time during that period, after all, both Xu Anying and Concubine Yu were not easy to deal with.
But all that is in the past.
Shen Chen did not continue to talk in detail, but just said to Wei An: "I met the emperor. The emperor could no longer speak at that time, but in the end... the emperor was prepared. I asked him questions in front of the other three cabinet ministers. When I mentioned the crimes of Concubine Yu and Xu Anying, he nodded and blinked..."
Speaking of the death of King Linjiang, Shen Chen was sad. Wei An held his hand tightly and said, "Don't be too sad..."
"It's okay." Shen Chen hummed, "It's all over now. Father has lived a very tiring life. His current situation... may not be a bad thing."
He said, "Jingwu has ascended the throne. The official report has been sent out, but you probably haven't seen it yet. The coronation ceremony has not yet been held. I came to find you as fast as I could. I knew Xu Anying would definitely not miss this opportunity... Fortunately, I still made it..."
Wei An hugged him back and hummed heavily: "I know, I always knew that you would come to save me and come to see me."
None of them cared about the noise outside. Shen Chen lowered his head and told Wei An that Prince Zheng and Marquis Dingbei were safe, and reassured her: "Before I came here, I went to see the prince and the old lady. They both told me to take you back safely." (To be continued)
