Wei An lowered his head and glanced at the wife of Marquis Ping'an.
The wife of Marquis Ping'an was startled by her gaze.
There was no obvious emotion revealed in her eyes, but for some reason, as she looked at her, she felt scared and frightened unconsciously, and subconsciously took a step back, as if the girl in front of her was very dangerous.
But the person in front of her was just a little girl, she shouldn't have had such feelings.
She laughed and thought that maybe she was thinking too much and was frightened by these things recently.
Wei An has already spoken: "You went out to see my grandmother today. Besides your husband, did anyone else know?"
Mrs. Ping'an continued to look into her eyes, unconsciously avoiding her gaze. She felt her heart beating violently, and she covered her chest and shook her head in panic. Then she felt something was wrong and asked her, "Is there something wrong? Are we being monitored?"
Wei An shook his head gently: "Not necessarily. No one knows about your relationship with my grandmother. Even my third aunt said that we have never had any contact. You suddenly come..."
Wei An hesitated for a moment before saying, "But if someone is really following you, you need to find a suitable excuse."
She glanced at Old Madam Wei and said softly, "How about this? You can say that you are here to ask my Third Aunt to treat the illness on behalf of your family members."
Mrs. Ping'an was a little uneasy. She agreed, but then asked in a panic, "Or... or should I say that I'm here to ask on behalf of Master Xie?"
Wei An and Old Lady Wei immediately looked up at her.
She said uneasily, "Me and Xie Siyi are... cousins."
Old Madam Wei laughed and said, "Yes, how could you have forgotten about this matter? This is indeed a good idea, so let's say it this way."
She paused, then continued, "We know about this matter. Don't worry, I know why you came to me. Anyway, it's because my last name is Wei, and maybe it's also because Young Master Lin and Shen Chen have recently revealed their intention to marry us. But no matter what, you guessed right, we intend to take care of this matter. You go back first, and I will naturally send you the news later."
Mrs. Ping'an was completely relieved.
She knew Mrs. Wei's personality. She was someone who always did what she said. Since she said so, she would definitely do it.
The third lady then sent her off with great courtesy and rites.
Then he came back and asked the old lady, "The people in front have all returned, and the prince and his family have been sitting for a long time. Can we set the table for dinner?"
Old Madam Wei gestured with her jewelry and told her, "Don't rush to set the table yet. Send someone to the outer courtyard to announce that I have something to do. Ask the second and third sons to come in with the prince and his men."
The third lady was even more surprised.
What did the wife of Marquis Ping An say? Why did the old lady and Wei An react in this way
Could something big have happened
Although she thought so, she didn't dare to ask any more questions. She quickly said yes and did as Mrs. Wei instructed.
The second and third masters of the Wei clan brought Prince Zheng, Shen Chen and others to He'an Courtyard.
Old Madam Wei asked the waiters to leave and closed the door before she glanced at them and told them the purpose of the Marquis of Ping An's wife's visit. Finally, she said, "They are courting death. They can't blame anyone else."
The second and third masters were shocked by the news. They looked at each other and didn't know how to start the conversation.
Even King Zheng was surprised, and then he said, "Changan has been coming to the palace frequently recently just for this matter. This is consistent with what An An and Shen Chen said. For someone like Chu Jingxing, scheming against Third Master Xie is just the beginning. He always likes to put his killer moves in the back."
But this matter was still too shocking. The third master frowned and said, "But even if we knew it, can we go and tell on them?"
If he goes to inform on the Wei family in his capacity as a whistleblower, the first thing he will be accused of is deliberate framing by Queen Fang.
And without any evidence, would Marquis Ping'an be willing to come forward and testify
"No need to tell anyone." Wei An said calmly, "Just take advantage of their trick."
Master Wei San still didn't quite understand: "How do you turn the tables on others?"
Shen Chen quickly realized what Wei An meant. Seeing the Third Master asking the question, he said, "Are you trying to lure the snake out of its hole and wipe out the remaining forces of Princess Chang'an and Chu Jingxing in one fell swoop?!"
Young Master Lin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and glance at the two of them. No matter what, the tacit understanding between the two of them where they only had to say one sentence and the other could say the second half of the sentence really made him feel uncomfortable and a little... nervous.
Wei An didn't notice the expression on Lin Sanshao's face. He hummed and then looked at Shen Chen: "Didn't you also say that you felt something was wrong, so you asked Prince Consort Yuan to help you just in case? I think otherwise, there's no need to be prepared for the worst, just get it over with."
She was really disgusted with Chu Jingxing and didn't want to see Chu Jingxing jumping around anymore.
Since he keeps asking for death, let's fulfill his wish.
She didn't have the time or energy to continue fighting with Chu Jingxing, this poisonous snake.
Master Wei San and Master Er looked at each other and felt their palms were a little cold. After thinking for a while, Master San couldn't help but speak: "But this is not a trivial matter. It's easy to say, but it's not that easy to really catch them all in one fell swoop. We don't have the manpower, and we don't have..."
King Zheng frowned and thought for a while before asking Wei An, "Have you come up with an idea?"
"I guess so." Wei An thought for a while and was about to speak when the third wife came outside to ask Old Madam Wei: "Old Madam, Master Xie from the palace is here again..." There was a hint of helplessness in her voice.
Everyone turned their eyes to Wei An at the same time.
Wei An frowned somewhat uncomfortably.
The third lady outside couldn't help but sigh, what kind of day is today? Why are all the people who have been here before and those who haven't been here flocking here
With so many more people coming, how should we prepare the lunch and dinner meals more thoughtfully
Just as she was feeling embarrassed, Old Madam Wei responded from inside, saying "I understand". After thinking for a moment, she nodded slightly to Wei An and went outside to the flower hall.
Master Xie was waiting for them with a smile on his face, and his smile deepened when he saw them. After greeting each other, he said, "The Queen is bored in the palace, so she wants to summon you to the palace to chat with her. I wonder if the Princess has the time?"
Of course there is. Wei An thought about it and said to Xie Siming: "Aunt, please wait a moment. I will go change my clothes."
Siyi Xie smiled and nodded, and there was a little appreciation in her eyes when she looked at Wei An - what a smart girl.
