Everyone was extremely worried, but Wei An was still able to remain calm. At this moment, there was nothing that could be done if she lost her composure. She thought about it carefully and asked Chu Jingwu to bring Han Bo over first and let him go into the palace by himself.
The imperial envoy disappeared, and he was under the escort of the Jinyiwei and Yulinwei. This was a big deal no matter how you looked at it. When Chu Jingwu found out about it, the first thing he should have done was to go to the palace to ask for help. If people knew that the first thing he did was to run to the Wei family, then this matter would be hard to explain.
Chu Jingwu had completely calmed down by this point, nodded, and quickly went back to make arrangements.
When Han Bo came, his eyes were still red. He had been traveling non-stop for the past two days and did not dare to delay for a moment, for fear that if he delayed, his master would lose his life.
The Marquis had gotten into trouble, and he was carrying a huge psychological burden.
But when he saw Wei An, he couldn't help himself and knelt on the ground with a plop: "Princess, save my Marquis!"
In his mind, Shen Chen had always been omnipotent, but this time he was captured so easily. He was really scared.
He also knew the situation in Fujian. The one who was going to deal with Shen Chen was a behemoth, which was different from anything he had experienced before.
Wei An calmly asked Tan Xi beside him to help him up and asked him: "Did anything special happen along the way? No matter what it is, as long as it is a little unusual."
Han Bo knew Wei An's personality. She was never the kind of person who would ask questions without a purpose. Whenever she asked a question, she always had a purpose.
He thought about it carefully for a while, then recalled hesitantly: "On the first day, Princess Yonghe sent someone to deliver a letter to the Marquis, but the Marquis did not read it, nor did he reply to the letter, and just let the person go."
Wei An nodded and continued to ask: "Anything else?"
Han Bo tried very hard to recall for a while, and then widened his eyes again: "There is one more thing. Before we arrived at Dongchang Prefecture, the Marquis said that Dongchang Prefecture was not very peaceful."
Not very peaceful.
Shen Chen is also a very smart person. If he says that things are not going well, he must have discovered something.
After discovering something, would you still be unprepared and let others succeed
This is not Shen Chen's style.
The only possibility is that Shen Chen knew something was going to happen, but he let it happen.
But why
If he was really sent by Liu Biping, Shen Chen should know that he has no chance of survival...
As her mind raced, Wei An suddenly remembered what Han Bo had said before, that Princess Yonghe had sent a letter to Shen Chen. She suddenly asked, "After Shen Chen received the letter, did he write a letter to me, and then asked Xue Song to send it back?"
Han Bo stared at Wei An in a daze, unable to react for a moment to what Wei An meant, but he was very cooperative. He tried hard to recall what Wei An asked, and soon nodded: "Yes, after Princess Yonghe sent the letter, the Marquis began to write to you."
Wei An hummed and let Han Bo stay where he was: "Think about it carefully, if there is anything wrong, I will go get something."
Han Bo agreed. For some reason, when he met Wei An's eyes that seemed to see through everything, he suddenly became less panicked.
Wei An seemed to know what happened to his master.
I see. Since the princess is not panicking, there must be a way. At the very worst, the Marquis must still be alive.
As long as you are alive, there is a way.
Even in such a difficult situation, the Marquis could go to Jiangxi to find the Prince, and that was when the Marquis was a child! He could arrange everything, let alone now.
He felt relieved, listened to Wei An, sat down and carefully recalled the whole thing.
Wei An had already reached his bedroom. He opened the box containing the letter sent by Shen Chen, took out Shen Chen's letter, and read it carefully again.
There was still nothing wrong with the first letter. No matter how you looked at it, it was Shen Chen expressing his feelings.
And the second one.
Shen Chen was talking about Princess Yonghe.
Wei An didn’t take it seriously before, but after Han Bo’s reminder, she realized something was wrong.
In the letter, after Shen Chen talked about Princess Yonghe taking Wu Shi San, he also mentioned that it was quite interesting. He was in a hurry to travel, but Princess Yonghe's people were able to catch up with him easily and knew which inn he was staying.
That was only the first day!
What does this mean
This shows that Shen Chen also knows what's going on. He knows that he is being monitored, or in other words, he knows that someone is plotting against him!
Wei An read the letter over and over again and fell into deep thought.
How could the person sent by Princess Yonghe, even if he was the princess's confidant, know the whereabouts of the imperial envoy
Shen Chen's trip was already dangerous, so Emperor Longqing sent the Yulin Guards and the Jinyi Guards to escort him. But he was still worried that it was not safe enough and would allow the princess's people to find out his whereabouts at will
unless... ..
Shen Chen was reminding him that there was something wrong with the people around Princess Yonghe.
There is a problem, but Princess Yonghe doesn't seem like someone who can accomplish great things.
She is just jealous, this is Wei An's evaluation of her.
That's not her.
She really would not harm Shen Chen.
There is only one explanation, that is, her confidant was not there to deliver the letter, but to confirm whether the intelligence was accurate and whether Shen Chen's whereabouts were exactly as reported.
Only after meeting Shen Chen did he feel at ease and confirm that the information was accurate.
These people are so cautious.
Wei An frowned and thought carefully.
Now Princess Yonghe has been sent to Puci Temple to reflect on her sins, and her palace maids have most likely been dealt with...
So, where can we find clues
Thinking of how Princess Yonghe had treated him before, Wei An frowned again.
Is there any connection between these two things
Suppose there really is someone who wants both her and Shen Chen to die...
She calmly began to write down these people's names on paper.
Liu Biping.
Princess Linjiang.
One of them has been a grudge against Shen Chen for a long time, and it's a life-or-death situation. The other one has long been resentful of Shen Chen, and now he has motives because of the death of his beloved eldest son.
If it was Liu Biping, Shen Chen would not abandon the Jinyiwei and Yulinwei. Even if there was a traitor around him, he would definitely have the ability to find out the traitor and settle the crisis without taking any risks.
Then, it is very likely that it is not Liu Biping, but someone who wants to kill Shen Chen but does not want to reveal his identity.
And it is very likely that Shen Chen will feel hesitant and will not want to confront him directly.
Could it really be Princess Linjiang
If it was really her, then she was really stupid and was simply destroying her own life.
