King Zheng frowned and said, "I can't make decisions for An An on these matters. She is a child with her own ideas."
He would never use the blind marriage or mute marriage trick on his own daughter.
Shen Chen and Young Master Lin's marriage was certainly not a blind one. He really liked the two guys, but even though he liked them, he, as their father, was not the one who would marry and spend the rest of her life with them. So it was more important that Wei An liked them herself.
Although he had woken up from his sleep, he didn't want to say anything more. He just said to Shen Chen: "Of course I won't help either of you. You can just rely on your own abilities."
Shen Chen said "oh" and changed the subject: "I didn't come here just for this matter today."
Anything else
King Zheng stopped and said, "I won't help you..."
Both of them are good, so let them see who can win the beauty based on their own abilities.
"It's not this." Shen Chen sat up straight: "It's something else. I went to see Yuan Dong today."
Yuan Dong
King Zheng finally became serious, sat back down in his seat, and asked him, "What did he say?"
Shen Chen recounted the deal he had made with Yuan Dong, and said softly, "He still cares about the Yuan family's foundation and his two children, and he has already agreed."
Prince Zheng's eyes became heavier. "It would be great if he could agree to it. Chang'an has been coming to the palace more and more frequently recently. I heard that Princess Yonghe is not as favored as the Queen. She must have a reason for doing these things."
Unfortunately, Princess Chang'an and Chu Jingxing are on very tight alert right now, so their people can't do anything at all.
Only those two people can gain the trust of Chu Jingxing and Princess Chang'an, and this is all they can do.
I hope Yuan Dong can work harder and live up to everyone's expectations.
Shen Chen hummed: "I know this too. As the funeral is just around the corner, I feel more and more uneasy."
Chu Jingxing is too quiet, which always makes people feel uneasy.
King Zheng understood his feelings and patted him on the shoulder: "This burden is heavy, but it's a pity that we can't kill him and put an end to it, otherwise it would save trouble."
Yes, otherwise it would be much easier.
Shen Chen smiled bitterly and was about to speak when Waituo Xuesong knocked on the door. His usually calm voice also became uncertain: "My Lord, Qingfeng is here. I have something to report."
Shen Chen glanced at Prince Zheng and said hurriedly, "Let him in."
Qing Feng rushed in like a gust of wind, not even bothering to show his courtesy, and knelt on the ground: "My Lord, something happened. The third master of the Xie family...something happened."
The third master of the Xie family? !
Brother Wei An's father?!
Wei An respected Xie Liangcheng very much, and they had become siblings. Both the Wei and Xie families knew about this, and from then on the two families treated each other as relatives.
Shen Chen stood up immediately: "Tell me slowly, what happened?"
"I don't know the details. Tan Xi told me. I only know that Mr. Xie had an accident on his way back from inspecting the granary for some reason..."
Shen Chen's heart skipped a beat. He looked at King Zheng and asked, "Dead?"
"He's not dead." Qing Feng shook his head and said with some embarrassment: "He was... in Zuihong Tower... Well... he died soon..."
The wind is coming?!
Shen Chen was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a moment.
He didn't know much about Mr. Xie San's character, so he didn't dare to say whether Mr. Xie San was a drunkard and a womanizer.
King Zheng was even more so.
He only knew that ever since he had been interacting with the Xie family as relatives, the Xie family had always been very polite and there had never been any unpleasant incidents.
Wei'an is also very good to his family and always gives them gifts during festivals.
Mrs. Xie San often went to the Wei family.
But now, why did this happen
"When did it happen?" King Zheng was the first to react and asked Qing Feng, "Just in the past few days?"
They are in Langfang. It should take a day or two for the news to reach the Wei family, right
After all, we can't publicize the fact that a person has a stroke right away.
Qing Feng nodded: "It's about what happened today. I heard from Tan Xi that it was the young master of the Xie family who came to the capital in person."
Among the young masters of the Xie family, Xie Liangqing is a fool, so it is natural that the one who comes is Xie Liangcheng.
Shen Chen frowned and asked in an indistinct manner, "Did Tan Xi say anything? What was the princess's reaction?"
Qing Feng nodded: "He told me that it was because the princess asked him to investigate this matter that he told me." He paused, swallowed his saliva and looked at Shen Chen, and said: "On the day when we found out that Third Master Xie was in trouble, according to Young Master Xie, he seemed to have seen someone from our palace."
Shen Chen was even more surprised: "Our princess's people?"
King Zheng also frowned and couldn't help asking, "Could it be that Chu Jingxing, that bastard, did this again?"
He now hated Chu Jingxing to the extreme. This man had tried to harm his daughter time and time again. If he hadn't been concerned that now was not a good time to attack him, he would have really been unable to resist cutting him into pieces.
Qing Feng said, "I only know that the princess suspected this and has asked Tan Xi and others to investigate. I thought I should inform you of this matter, so I hurried to tell you."
Shen Chen hummed, and hurriedly stood up to say goodbye to Prince Zheng: "Your Majesty, in this case, I will leave first. This matter may not be that simple, I'd better go and ask first."
King Zheng responded and walked a few steps side by side with him before saying, "If Chu Jingxing is really so unscrupulous, then it seems that the evil water hidden in his belly is about to come out. You should find out what is going on. Don't let An An be fooled by others."
Shen Chen agreed, led Qingfeng, Xuesong and Hanbo out, and went straight back to the Pingxi Marquis Mansion.
The glass lampshade in the flower hall emitted a warm light. He frowned and thought for a moment, then waved to Han Bo and called him over. He whispered to him, "Go to Prince Consort Yuan again and tell him that I have an extra question for him. Ask him to do his best to give me the answer before tomorrow."
Chu Jingxing is now being monitored by Hu Changshi. If Chu Jingxing really did it, he certainly couldn't do it himself, and he had to borrow the help of Princess Chang'an.
And if the Princess of Chang'an wants to use manpower, she will definitely not use people from the Princess's Mansion who are so conspicuous. It will probably be the dowry of County Lady Xianrong. A large part of County Lady Xianrong's dowry is from the Princess's Mansion, and now they are in the Prince's Palace.
Chu Jingxing's movements were restricted, but they were not.
Han Bo knew that the matter was urgent, so he didn't say anything more and quickly agreed. He got up and went to Yuan Dong overnight to tell him about the matter. He then said, "Prince consort, the Marquis said that the matter is urgent and you don't have much time. Please make a decision early and return to the princess's mansion as soon as possible."
