Wei An didn't say anything.
As expected, her guess was correct. There was no need to wait until the Lin family expelled the Third Young Master Lin. The Third Young Master Lin already had a close relationship with the Linjiang King's family. The previous emperor died without leaving a will, and there was no legitimate prince. The princes fought endlessly, and in the end, it was Emperor Longqing who was one step ahead and ascended the throne with the help of several noble families and the cabinet.
But he had few children, and his health was not good at his old age. The princes under him were always scheming and scheming. These princes had their own thoughts, and I'm afraid none of them was easy to deal with, and any of them could be the big hand behind the scenes manipulating the life and death of others... ...
But now is not the time to think about these things. She stood up, glanced at Shen Chen, and went out.
Old Madam Wei had already figured out a solution, and was telling the third and second masters to go outside: "Just say that I was frightened, got up several times in the night and caught a cold, and now I'm going outside to get a doctor."
She came to live in the villa under the pretext of recuperating, and even the palace sent Eunuch Xia to check on her. Now her condition has worsened, and Young Master Lin had clearly led a team to search her before. If she becomes more seriously ill, it seems that Cao Wen may be able to force his way in.
Wei An held the Third Master back and refused to let him go. He looked at Old Madam Wei and said, "Although Cao Wen does not dare to go too far, since Cao Wen said he was following someone's trail, if you don't ask him to search, even if you are really sick, it will be easy for people to gossip about you. Why not ask him to come in..."
Old Mrs. Wei frowned, but she knew that Wei An was no longer the same as before, so she patiently listened to Wei An's explanation.
"How about this... Uncle San goes out to get a doctor for the old lady?" Wei An looked calm and not panicked at all, which made the Third Master feel relieved. "Then go and ask Third Master Lin to be a witness."
Tongzhou has now set up checkpoints to block the roads. After Young Master Lin has finished his work with the Wei family, he will definitely go to other families. Judging from the progress, most of the people nearby are noble, either from the Fang family or the Liang family, and neither of them is easy to deal with. I'm afraid Young Master Lin is still lingering nearby.
As long as they find him and get him over, it will be Jinyiwei's business.
Cao Wen could not compete with Lin Sanshao. Although Lin Sanshao was born out of wedlock and was not valued by the people in the Qinghe Earl's Mansion, he was able to establish himself and won the favor of Emperor Longqing. Moreover, his sister was also able to endure and now became the only concubine who could have a say around Emperor Longqing besides Empress Fang.
Mrs. Wei then lay down and pretended to be sick, and forbade the first lady and Wei Yumin to attend to her: "That group of people are different from the Third Young Master Lin's people. I'm afraid they will barge in without considering your status. Now we are nothing in the eyes of some people, how can we maintain our dignity and respect... Since others can't give us, we have to stand up for ourselves. Go back to your rooms. If there is a search and seizure later, I will send someone to bring you here."
After the eldest lady and Wei Yumin left, and the room became quiet and no one else was around, Mrs. Wei thought for a while before asking Shen Chen, "What's going on?"
Someone has been sent to look for Young Master Lin. If it works, that would be great. If not, the old lady can only cover up the matter by pretending to be sick.
We can only do our best and leave the rest to fate for what happens next. In this case, worrying is really unnecessary. Instead of worrying, we might as well think about countermeasures and know more things.
Shen Chen was very handsome. Under the lamp, his face was as white as jade, and his eyes were exactly like the jet-black gemstone in the old lady's hand. He didn't look like a dandy at all. With a serious face, he explained the whole story to Old Lady Wei.
It was only natural for the princes to come to Beijing to celebrate the birthday of Emperor Longqing. There were officials to receive them along the way, and the itinerary could not be faked. However, the princes did so, but not all of their sons did so.
Shen Chen was lured to Tongzhou by a piece of news, but when he entered Tongzhou he found out that he was set up - something happened as soon as he arrived in Tongzhou, something happened in Zheng Wang Mansion, but his insider died in Zheng Wang Mansion.
He failed to get the information and his insider had problems. He immediately realized that someone had set up a trap to trick him, so he had no choice but to hide in the Wei family's villa to seek help.
The news that lured him in should naturally be a reason and guarantee that could also convince Old Lady Wei. Old Lady Wei seemed to be thinking about it, and then asked him: "In your opinion, is this a self-torture trick directed and performed by King Zheng himself, or is there someone else behind it?"
There was a sudden noise outside. Calculating the time, it was probably because the Third Master had asked the doctor to come back. Old Madam Wei suppressed her doubts and said to Shen Chen, "I'm sorry to trouble you. I'm afraid you have to hide in my back room."
However, Shen Chen didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him. He nodded calmly to Old Lady Wei and followed Wei An to the back.
Fortunately, the doctor that the third master had called just came in, and the third young master Lin arrived soon after.
Young Master Lin searched the Wei family's villa in front of Cao Wen again and asked him expressionlessly, "It's already three o'clock in the morning. If we delay any longer, it will be dawn soon. Why don't you lead the people to search it again? I'm afraid the Wei family won't be able to sleep tonight anyway."
His words were always so choking that they could make people choke. Cao Wentian was fearless and did not care about anything, but there was nothing he could do to him. He blushed, glanced at him sideways, and apologized to Old Lady Wei with a wry smile.
Old Mrs. Wei still had a wet towel covering her forehead and was shaking her head gloomily.
Cao Wen looked around the room again, then led everyone out without saying anything.
After he left, the atmosphere in the whole house seemed to come alive. The third and second masters breathed a sigh of relief, then bowed to thank Young Master Lin.
If Third Master Lin hadn't been here today, Cao Wen would probably have turned the whole house upside down.
Young Master Lin still had an expressionless face and led his people out again. The Third Master worriedly told Old Lady Wei: "I'm afraid this matter is not small. When I went out to look for people, I found that people from the Liang and Fang families had also gone there... A large number of Jinyiwei were still patrolling and searching every house..."
Old Mrs. Wei looked sullen and said nothing.
This is a killing move aimed at King Linjiang. If Shen Chen, who shouldn't be in Tongzhou at this time, is found, King Linjiang's faction will never be cleared even if they jump into the Yellow River...
Who is so generous
Thinking of the Feng family's affairs, Mrs. Wei's face turned even worse.
The open and secret struggles between the several princes will probably become more intense because of the downfall of the Feng family.
I'm dizzy from the noise. The weather is too hot and the water is rising here. It's really annoying. The water rises here every summer... The guaranteed update is completed. I will try to add monthly ticket updates later. Continue to ask for monthly tickets and subscriptions~~~
