Wei An seldom says harsh words.
But basically, every time she makes a harsh statement, a group of people will really be in trouble.
The old princess leaned on her cane and turned her head to look at her. She couldn't help feeling a little melancholy and secretly happy.
She raised this girl herself.
She watched with her own eyes how she had come to where she is today, and saw how she had managed to find her feet in such a difficult situation and lead the Wei family out of the mud.
Although the death of Princess Changning stood between them and became a thorn that was difficult to remove, she still loved Wei An in her heart and always hoped that Wei An would live a good life.
Seeing how well she is now, how she has the ability to protect herself, and how she can remain calm in the face of danger, she always feels a little proud.
After a pause, she glanced at Wei An and then turned her eyes away to listen to the music outside. After a while, she came back to her senses and smiled: "Yes, we must not let them do what they want."
The old princess motioned Wei An to help her walk back, and asked her, "Do you have any plans?"
After all, the Wei family was in an awkward situation, and the old princess knew it well. Any big move would easily lead to being attacked by everyone.
Wei An has been in the spotlight quite a lot recently.
People in this world always believe that it takes two to tango, and always think that if a person is attacked, there must be something wrong with that person himself.
The affairs of the Peng family eventually became a big drama watched by the whole nation, but there were still some die-hard scholars who stood up and shouted, saying that the Wei family was also wrong and that women should take care of their husbands and children.
Accusing the Wei family of not sharing the hardships with the Peng family.
How ridiculous is this
But there are so many ridiculous people in this world.
After the old princess finished asking, she added: "I want to ask you, what are your plans for the future?"
Wei An stopped and saw that no one was following him. Nanny Chen and Nanny Wang were leading the servants far away. He thought carefully and said, "It may not be settled now, but we have to make sure we can return safely from Fujian first."
Speaking of these potential dangers, she acted as if it were a trivial matter. The old princess felt a little distressed but forced herself to hold it back. She sorted out her emotions for a while and said, "No matter how powerful you are, you are just a child. Sometimes you shouldn't always keep things in your heart. If you don't speak out, others won't know what you are thinking, nor will they know that you need help..."
She turned around and looked at Wei An: "I know about the Peng family's affairs and the Cao family's affairs before that. In fact, you didn't even ask King Zheng for help..." There was confusion and bewilderment in her eyes: "But he is your father, and he has the ability to help you..."
Wei An paused, she considered her words for a moment before she smiled bitterly and asked the old princess: "Grandmother, I know that my father is willing to help me, and I also know that many things may be easily solved if I tell him... But before that, I am always afraid of dragging him down..."
After all, Prince Zheng was the person that Emperor Longqing wanted to win over and show favor to the world and his ministers.
If he gets involved, things will become a lot more troublesome.
No matter how well you do, some things will leave traces.
Since she cannot be the biological daughter of King Zheng, King Zheng certainly cannot do too much for her, otherwise it will easily cause trouble.
Considering Emperor Longqing's deep suspicion, if Prince Zheng was involved, he would be almost doomed.
The old princess also understood and sighed slightly.
That's true. To overturn the case for the Ming family, the prerequisite is that there are no descendants left in the Ming family except Old Madam Wei. If Emperor Longqing knew that Ming Yuyou, who was told the secret letter in vain, actually had a child with Prince Zheng, and that the child was raised safely in the Wei family, who knows what he would do
It’s a mess if you think about it.
Want to solve all this...
The old princess shuddered in her heart, put away all those shocking thoughts, stood still for a while, and hummed: "So you mean, I will ask him for help in the future?"
The play on the stage had already begun, and ladies were gradually coming out of the flower hall and heading for the garden. Wei An looked at Xianrong County Lady, then turned away and admitted, "It should be."
With Prince Zheng helping from behind, the old princess stopped talking and held Wei An's hand and shook it gently: "Have a safe trip, grandma is waiting for you to come back..." She paused and said: "If there is anything I can help you with, just let me know."
Princess Xianrong had turned around and followed Princess Chang'an, pursing her lips.
Princess Chang'an noticed that her daughter's pace had slowed down, so she turned around to look at her, then looked at Wei An in the distance and coughed lightly.
"Why do you care about a dying person?" Princess Chang'an finally couldn't bear to see her daughter in such a low mood, and snorted nonchalantly: "Since you look down on her, why should you care about such a person? Comparing her to yourself is a loss of status. Be more stable."
Princess Xianrong already knew that her mother had been busy lately, and she didn't dare to cause her any more trouble or go against her wishes, so she nodded slightly.
But she was still somewhat unwilling. When she got to the front and heard that Princess Yonghe was also coming, she clenched her fists.
Princess Yonghe has been following Shen Chen very closely recently. After all, she is a princess and also has the title of cousin, so no one dares to say anything when she follows Shen Chen, and everyone indulges her.
But Shen Chen was not that close to her at all and avoided her everywhere.
The chase between these two people also made many people enjoy watching it.
However, Princess Yonghe, the person involved, probably doesn't like being watched, especially after she suffered a series of defeats...
The old princess had almost finished her talk with Wei An, and seeing that the time was almost up, she said softly, "The new princess will be arriving soon, and after the ceremony she will be escorted to the main courtyard. You should go and wait first, to avoid being used as a pretext by others."
Being a stepmother is difficult, but being a child left behind by the previous wife is equally difficult.
It is better to treat each other with courtesy.
Respect each other so that we can live a good life in the future.
Wei An understood what she meant and nodded gently, instructing Nanny Chen to take good care of the old princess. He also specifically told Yuqing to go to the kitchen to prepare a bowl of hot soup for the old princess and Old Madam Wei.
Elderly people suffer a lot in winter. For example, the old princess is afraid of wind, and their joints are prone to pain when they are exposed to the wind.
Yuqing agreed.
Wei An led Nanny Wang and the others to the main courtyard.
The furniture was all custom-made by the Ministry of Industry and fits the room perfectly. The moon-shaped door frame and bed are carved with an auspicious picture of the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, and the curtains are also bright red, which looks festive and natural.
The one sitting on the bed was the bride's cousin, who was only five years old, and the other was a little girl from Mei Hanlin's family, whose name seemed to be Mei Ying. She was just over four years old, and her eyes were curved when she smiled, which was very cute.
