Wei An has never been the kind of person who would dwell on useless things and refuse to let go. Without waiting until she hit a wall, she knew that this time was different from her previous life - in her previous life, when Peng Caichen seduced her, he was already the master of the Peng family.
He knows everything and is the one who truly makes the decisions in the Peng family.
But this life is different. The Peng family has Peng Huai who is at the top, and his father is still alive and well. He is just a pawn to carry out the will of his father and uncle.
His role was far less important than she had imagined.
In this case, when the Peng brothers and sisters invited her out for fun again, she refused without hesitation.
Nanny Wang took the booklet and watched the servants pack their things. They would have to go on a long journey in a few days, so they had to bring everything they needed, otherwise they would be in a hurry and afraid that something might go wrong.
When she had time, she asked Yuqing and Lanhe to throw out the piled-up posts: "Since I was crowned as a princess, bad things have happened one after another..."
From Li Gui Niang to Princess Chang Ying, and now to the Peng brothers and sisters, they never let people have peace, and each of them seemed to want to eat people, with their bloody mouths wide open. She was really worried about Wei An. She held Wei An's favorite quilt in her hand and gave it to Lan He to take out and dry it, shaking her head: "Miss, can't you find anything about Zhao Qi?"
This is really strange. Could it be that the Peng family really saw Wei An's good qualities and thought that Wei An was suitable to be a daughter-in-law, so they came over
Yuqing was also anxious: "I don't know what happened to Zhao Qi. After I delivered the message, there has been no news for such a long time. I went there, and even He Sheng didn't know where he went..."
She was very worried as she spoke: "Is anything wrong with him?"
Zhao Qi is a steady man, cunning but also very calm. He never does things without considering the consequences. But since the incident with Chu Jingzong, there has been no news from him for more than ten days. This is really a very strange thing.
Wei An frowned. On the day after Chu Jingzong’s incident, she wanted to meet Zhao Qi to find out how he got the news and informed her, but Zhao Qi disappeared and didn’t even leave a message.
Neither He Sheng nor Tan Xi had ever seen him.
This is indeed a strange thing.
No matter what, Zhao Qi was given to her by Xie Liangcheng, and now he is hers. She can neither ignore his life nor Xie Liangcheng's side. After a pause, she said, "Send someone to the Xie family, let Tan Xi go, be careful, and ask Mr. Xie if he knows where Zhao Qi has gone."
Zhao Qi's family is now in Wei An's hands, and they have always cooperated very well with Wei An. If nothing else happens, there is no reason for them to disappear without a reason.
But he just disappeared.
Although Wei An had asked Tan Xi to keep an eye on Chu Jingzong and Prince Duan for a while, he didn't find anything.
But Zhao Qi did disappear after delivering the message, and it might not be related to Prince Duan. We still need to find out the truth.
Yuqing frowned and agreed to go out.
As soon as she left, Feicui came in person and told Wei An that Old Madam Wei wanted to ask her to come over.
Old Madam Wei invited her over not for any other reason, but because Concubine Peng De from the palace had given her something as a reward.
This was the second time that Concubine De had given her something as a reward this month. Old Madam Wei sneered, "You are afraid that others don't know what the Peng family thinks of you, so you are warning others."
And it's probably not just a warning to those who want to take advantage of Wei An, but also a statement to the Chen family and Queen Fang - maybe Concubine Peng De just wants to make Queen Fang uncomfortable, and she wants to go against anyone Queen Fang wants to win over.
What does it mean to completely disregard other people
Wei An had the same idea as Old Lady Wei, so she didn't even open the box next to her to take a look. She just said softly to Old Lady Wei, "Grandma, I'm afraid I have to go out this afternoon."
Old Madam Wei hummed, and didn't ask her where she was going. She just frowned and said, "Mrs. Peng sent a few sets of clothes. Although all the girls in the mansion got some, anyone with eyes and brains knows that these are specially sent to you. If this goes on, I'm afraid there will really be rumors. An An, you should be aware of this. Why do you seem to be particularly tolerant of the Peng family?"
Even Old Lady Wei noticed her special feeling towards the Peng family.
Wei An was silent for a moment.
She didn't know how to tell Old Madam Wei that in the previous life, the Peng family was the culprit responsible for the death of Wei Yangqing and all the members of the Wei family. She also didn't want Old Madam Wei to know that in this life, the Peng family might not intend to let the Wei family go.
The Peng family is not Princess Changying. Although Princess Changying appears arrogant, her only support is the emperor, and her purpose is very simple.
But the Peng family is different. They have deep roots and have been operating for many years.
They have connections in the palace, and the direct descendants of the family can hold high positions. There are so many things to deal with, and if something goes wrong in any link, they may be plotted against and killed without a burial place.
With the experience of his previous life, Wei An didn't dare to relax at all.
So even though she would feel annoyed if she looked at Peng Caichen for one more moment, she could still endure the nausea and go to see him.
After a while, she smiled at Old Madam Wei and said, "After all, I work in the Ministry of War with my father, and the Peng family has Master Peng Er who is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. I still want to be cautious."
Old Madam Wei did not ask any more questions. She could sense that Wei An did not want others to ask about many things. Since Wei An did not ask, she did not say anything. She just nodded along with her words and reminded her: "The brother and sister of the Peng family sent many invitations again, all of which invited you to go out. I rejected them with the excuse that you were not feeling well. But this is not a solution. I think they are very persistent."
The more persistent you are, the more suspicious you become.
Wei An hummed, thought for a moment, and then said to Old Lady Wei, "If they send any more letters, please give them to me and I will handle them myself."
Mrs. Wei agreed and let her stay for lunch before letting her go.
Seeing her frown, Aunt Hua advised her, "You don't have to worry too much. I think Miss Seven knows what's going on."
Wei An seemed to have been prepared for this and had been paying attention to the Peng family from early on.
Since she inexplicably has such a deep grudge against the Peng family, there must be a reason. If there is a reason, Wei An will always find a way to deal with it.
Old Mrs. Wei looked out the window and sighed.
She knew very well that Wei An had long harbored a grudge against the Peng family, but it was precisely because of this that she felt afraid.
