After all, they have been married for many years. After thinking about it for a whole night, Mrs. Chen almost understood what her husband meant - her husband even cut off ties with her family because he was afraid of taking sides.
It would be best if you could stay alone and not get involved in this mess.
The good thing is that the Wei family is also like this - on the surface, the Wei family now cannot be relied on by anyone and lives a peaceful life.
But the Wei family had a plan in private, so sending their daughter to the Wei family and making friends with the Wei family would only have benefits and no harm.
And as my husband said, the Dingbei Marquis Mansion has wealth and now also a reputation, and it is thriving.
The most rare thing is that Mrs. Wei is a person who abides by the rules. If she abides by the rules, she will not break them in the future.
Now that Wei Yangqing has inherited the title, the title will belong to Wei Jie in the future.
Wei Jie used to rely on imperial examinations to get ahead, but now even if he does nothing, when the time comes, he will naturally be awarded the title of Marquis Dingbei. What is there to worry about then
She figured the matter out, picked a good day, and went to the Wei family.
When the old lady of Dingbei Hou heard that Madam Chen came to visit, she thought it was about the Fang family. Who knew that Madam Chen came to discuss her children's marriage? She was stunned for a moment.
The daughter of Zuodu Yushi of the Censorate...
She thought about it, then whispered to Madam Chen: "... ..Will it be too conspicuous at this time?"
Mrs. Chen immediately understood what Mrs. Wei meant and smiled: "You are the elder, so I won't hide the relationship between our two families... Originally, we should ask a middleman to come and mediate, but we are really worried... Although it is against the rules, we trust your character..."
She paused, and seeing that Old Lady Wei seemed to be thinking about something, she said, "We also want to keep Mianmian for a few more years. She came of age last year. In our Great Zhou, it is not uncommon for girls to get married at the age of 18..."
Wait a few years later...
She just wanted the two families to have a tacit understanding. Mrs. Wei smiled and said, "In this case, we have bothered your family many times. We should host you once. Why don't you pick a date and bring Mianmian over to have fun together for a day?"
This means that the two children should look at each other in the eye before they can do anything.
Mrs. Chen felt relieved and agreed with a smile. After sitting for a while, she asked Wei An, "Mian Mian is always clamoring to play with her, but she hasn't been seeing guests recently, which made Mian Mian complain about being bored at home for a long time."
"It's been a bit uneasy lately. This time her third aunt went out to burn incense, so I asked her to go with her. She should worship the gods more and those evil spirits won't dare to get close to her." Old Madam Wei smiled faintly, "When she comes back, I'll ask her to write back to Mianmian. These two girls have always been close, so we can't be cold to them."
Although she was not as cold-faced as usual, the relationship between Chen Mianmian and Wei An was not that good. Mrs. Chen knew it very well. After thinking about it, she felt that she had guessed it - Wei An might have gone to hide away. After all, Li Gui Niang's incident was caused by her. People in the capital city didn't say it, but some people still felt that she was lucky.
When she came to her senses, she said no more and just nodded in agreement with what Old Lady Wei said.
Wei An was not really seeking quiet time. She was sitting on the rooftop terrace of Phoenix Terrace, watching the crowds coming and going below, and drinking tea with Shen Chen.
Shen Chen likes to drink tea and also likes to make tea, but Wei An is really not very good at tasting tea. Every time Shen Chen asks her if she can taste the difference, she always shakes her head as expected - in fact, she can tell the good from the bad by drinking it, after all, she has followed Princess Anhe for so long.
A princess who was raised like a princess with gold and jade in her arms had to have the best of everything. Even the water for making tea had to be the snow scraped off the plum branches in winter.
She's been by my side for so many years, of course she knows how to appreciate it.
But I would rather not taste it again.
In her previous life, she was the one who did the work of scraping the snow water. She had long forgotten the taste of tea, but she could still remember the biting cold in the snow and ice.
She took a sip of tea and put it down, leaning back in her chair and looking at Shen Chen leisurely: "Your Highness really put a lot of effort into this game of chess."
First, Zeng Yao would be unable to bear the difficulties and become angry, thus setting a trap for Huang Bingqing, and then use this to implicate Prince Duan, and then force Prince Duan into a corner, where he would have no choice but to ask Queen Fang for mercy.
We have to let the Fang family take over this money.
Then let the Fang family successfully persuade Queen Fang to plead with the Emperor.
Every step seems to be natural, but in fact every step is not so easy.
There can be no mistakes in any link in the middle.
With everything going on, he still didn't want to get involved at all. His deep scheming and the think tanks behind him are really chilling.
Moreover, I'm afraid King Linjiang is aiming for much more.
Shen Chen reached out and poured her another cup of tea, then suddenly told her, "I will be leaving Beijing soon."
Wei An raised his eyebrows.
Shen Chen has never been a playboy. He has always been the right-hand man of King Linjiang.
Prince Linjiang has caused Prince Duan to suffer heavy losses and has successfully sown a grudge between the emperor and the empress. At this time, he wants Shen Chen to leave Beijing...
She looked at the rising smoke and tried very hard to recall what should have happened at this time in her previous life, but she still couldn't figure it out. She could only guess and ask: "Is it to let you..."
Shen Chen did not let her guess any more: "The position of deputy director of the Fujian Quanzhou Maritime Customs was given to me by His Majesty."
As expected, when something happened to Prince Duan, Emperor Longqing immediately took action against Prince Linjiang's Mansion. He didn't feel at ease with the Palace of Prince Linjiang. After the fall of Prince Chu, Prince Linjiang was regarded as the most powerful vassal.
Now that even Prince Duan is in trouble, his suspicions are naturally piling up. The less evidence the Linjiang Palace can find, the more suspicious he will probably become.
She paused and groaned, "Since you have gained the benefits, the disadvantages will naturally fall on your brother. I'm afraid you should be more careful when you go there."
What she said was true. Chu Jingxing might have had bad intentions towards him for a long time.
If there was a chance, he would definitely be willing to let Shen Chen die - after all, Shen Chen had a very good relationship with Chu Jingwu, and King Linjiang loved Shen Chen too much.
If Emperor Longqing deliberately praised Shen Chen again, the three points of hostility in Chu Jingxing's heart would probably immediately turn into ten points.
Shen Chen understood it very well, but he still looked up at Wei An and said, "I always think that maybe it won't come to that."
Wei An was silent for a moment, then he put down the cup in his hand and lowered his head: "The human heart is hard to predict."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Sanshao's laughter rang out from behind her: "What a saying, the human heart is hard to predict."
As soon as he arrived, the weather, which had just been getting hot, seemed to suddenly turn cold. Shen Chen glared at him unhappily.
------The update is finished. I am really dying of staying up late~~~I hope you all enjoy reading it. In addition, the old book "Famous Family Boudoir Battle" with 2.5 million words has been completed. You are welcome to go and read it.
----Recommend the new book "Shi Xi" by Haojiyou: Li Hengyuan is a well-known idiot, and her aunt and concubine sisters are sharpening their knives to kill her and eat her. After eating and drinking, Li Hengyuan looks at them with satisfaction as they fall to the bottom of their lives: this is the end of looking down on idiots.
Love you guys, muah.
