Even when Wei Yangqing came back, he said the same thing: "We will be working together in the future, and we were friends in the past, so I sent you a message to show my closeness. We used to get along like this when we were in Hongdu."
He paused, looked at Old Madam Wei's expression, and then tentatively said, "Xiao Qi was outside today and seemed to have had some disputes with the princess of Princess Changying's mansion."
As soon as he said this, Nanny Hua glanced around and led everyone out to receive orders.
Old Madam Wei coughed and put down the teacup. She sneered and nodded unhappily, "That family has been spoiled too much. They really think they are someone important. They don't think about it. No matter how deep the relationship is, it is limited. What can be said and what cannot be said, do you need others to teach you? If you really continue like this, I'm afraid you won't know how you died."
Wei Yangqing's expression was startled, and he immediately remembered the previous conversation between Wei An and Li Gui Niang. He knew that what Old Lady Wei said made sense, but he still couldn't help but worry: "It's just that Princess Changying is not easy to get along with. I'm afraid that An An will suffer."
"Whether you suffer a loss or not, people are watching you." Old Madam Wei narrowed her eyes: "If it's not this time, there will be a next time. Let's just let people see if the Wei family is a pushover. They have their own scale in their hearts."
In the past, the Ming family was well-behaved and did not dare to go beyond their duties. The Wei family also did not dare to show up, but what was the result? They were still destroyed by the King of Chu and almost wiped out.
It is obvious that blindly tolerating and giving in will not lead to a good life. Good people are often bullied, and good horses are often ridden. This has been the truth since ancient times.
Wei Yangqing nodded, and felt an indescribable sour feeling in his heart.
How could Wei An have the ability to suppress Li Gui Niang, who was famous in the capital? If she said it wasn't because of the training of Old Madam Wei, he would never believe it.
But why did Mrs. Wei put so much effort into it
You know, Wei Yumin didn’t have this kind of treatment before.
After all, Old Lady Wei treated the descendants of the Ming family differently, which is why she always holds a grudge against Ming Yuyou.
He felt a little disappointed, and after a while he told Old Madam Wei, "My mother-in-law asked me to go over today, saying that the palace had sent a message about Ah Long's matter... Ah Long had been trained by the maids in the palace for a while, and my mother-in-law has been allowed to go and fetch her."
Princess Changning died. Although Wei Yulong was Princess Changning's daughter, she had only worked with Princess Zhennan to find out Princess Changning's whereabouts. She had done nothing else wrong.
The old Princess Zhennan and the old prince only have this little bloodline left, so it is normal for Emperor Longqing to show leniency.
She nodded slowly: "Your Majesty, please be merciful."
She said the word "Your Majesty is merciful" without any effort, but did she really mean it... Wei Yangqing lowered his head, pretending not to hear the sarcasm in this, and then responded, "The Princess of Zhennan has been ill for a long time and I'm afraid she is not well. I heard that the Zhennan Palace has even prepared funeral supplies to help the Princess of Zhennan."
When an adult makes a mistake, the same thing happens to him as it does to a child.
What's more, Princess Zhennan is narrow-minded and easily influenced, and is almost a black sheep. The old princess will do everything she can to protect her granddaughter, but will never help her.
Instead, he would definitely think about cleaning up the family and getting rid of this cheap daughter-in-law who has no gratitude for the old relationship and is always scheming.
She sighed calmly, "I know. I'll ask the third son's wife to send a gift over tomorrow."
Seeing Wei Yangqing standing there motionless, she asked her, "Are you undecided about A-Long's matter?"
According to the old princess's intention, Wei Yulong would naturally be raised by her side in the future, but Wei Yangqing was reluctant to let her go. He nodded: "She has been raised in my hands since she was a child. I think Changning is wrong, but she was indeed misled by Changning and me..."
Mrs. Wei nodded thoughtfully and glanced at him: "Thank goodness you finally saw this clearly."
She paused and then shook her head again: "But the more you think about this, the more you should give up this idea. Your mother-in-law's place is really a good place to go. Just look at An An and you will know that she is not a simple person. If A Long stays with her, she will still be your daughter. If she returns to our house, I am afraid it will only cause trouble."
Wei Yangqing was silent for a long time, then he tacitly agreed with Old Lady Wei's words, stood up and said yes respectfully, and went to the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion the next day, and kowtowed sincerely to the old Princess Zhennan.
He had sincerely wanted to marry Princess Changning, and he had sincerely wanted to be good to her.
But he was indeed too young back then, and did not understand that life could be so cruel. It could not be filled with romance and love alone, and there were branches of troubles everywhere.
Without pruning, the branches will extend outward until they grow into towering trees that can no longer be shaken.
Only now do I realize where I went wrong.
The old Princess Zhennan stared at him without blinking, and after a while she smiled bitterly and shook her head.
This kind of thing cannot be solved with one hand alone.
As for Princess Changning, she made even more mistakes.
She said softly, "A-Long will be raised by me from now on. He has suffered enough this time and has become sensible. I will teach him slowly. There is still time."
There is still time for everything. She absolutely does not want to give birth to another Princess Changning. After all, they are related by blood. After all, she has Princess Changning in her belly, so she has to fulfill the mother-daughter relationship.
Since everything had been agreed upon at home, Wei Yangqing nodded sincerely: "Please excuse me, I hope she can learn a little from you, and her life will be better in the future."
Saying this doesn't mean he is completely heartless.
The old Princess of Zhennan didn't like Wei Yangqing. She seemed affectionate, but actually heartless. Apart from being an official, he was a mess in handling household chores.
But this time, he was given some face, and the outsiders informed the Prince of Zhennan, and asked him to come back, and then asked him: "What did you say about An An's matter this time?"
Princess Zhennan is ill, and she is old and in a high position. The Peng family does not have an old nobleman of the right age and status to entertain her, so she naturally will not go to the banquet. However, even if the mistress is not out socializing, this matter has become so serious that she cannot ignore it.
Wei An was raised by her. It would be a lie to say that she had no feelings for him. It would also be a lie to say that this affection was not affected by Princess Changning and Wei Yulong.
But no matter what, she always cares about Wei An.
Wei Yangqing then told the whole story: "The princess is really pushing us too far, putting our Wei family under her feet, and An An is helpless."
The old princess didn't expect him to say that. She looked at him with a higher opinion and said in a softer voice, "That's right."
