She thought about it for a whole hour before going out.
Tan Xi and Lin Yue were waiting outside. When they saw her, they hurried over, looked at her worriedly, and called her "girl".
Lin Yue pursed his lips: "Girl, let me go."
Wei An just glanced at him.
This child is about the same age as her. He has been doing things for her since before he came to work in the mansion. After getting to know her for so long, she has naturally regarded him as a close friend.
She quietly moved her eyes away and shook her head, "No, it's not the right time. Go do something else for me first."
Not the time
Isn’t Shen Chen in danger now
Being kidnapped right under the noses of the Jinyiwei and Yulinwei would definitely be a dangerous situation.
But now the girl says there is no rush, is it not the right time
The two of them looked at each other, both somewhat confused.
But they always listened to Wei An's words, so they immediately responded with a serious expression.
Wei An said softly, "I know that you, Tan Xi, are familiar with all kinds of people. Go check with Zhao Qi and find out whether the person Princess Yonghe sent out of the city that day is the same person as the one who came back."
Registration is required when entering and exiting the capital city.
Especially those who are sent out on business trips by the princess.
Wherever you go, you will leave traces.
Tan Xi was stunned, but quickly responded with a yes and left quickly.
Lin Yue asked Wei An in confusion: "Miss, what about me? What should I do?"
He would feel uneasy if he didn't do something.
Wei An smiled and said, "Prepare a horse for me. I am going to Dongchang Prefecture!"
Lin Yue was completely stunned.
At this time, Madam Wei and the second and third masters were not much better than him when they heard the news. Madam Wei, who was the first to react, immediately frowned and said, "This won't work! You are a girl, you are weak and powerless. Even if you are a better rider, you can only compete among girls! How can you help?!"
The second master also made his position clear, which was rare: "You must not go! We don't know what happened there. How can a girl like you help there? I'm afraid you can't help at all, and you might even cause more trouble!"
The Third Master followed up with, "That's right. I know you're worried about the Marquis of Pingxi being in danger, but even if you're worried, what can you do to help in Dongchang Prefecture?"
"I can do it." Wei An remained calm from beginning to end. He looked calmly at Old Madam Wei and the second and third masters. His voice was light but firm: "Grandmother, second and third uncles, it may not be Liu Biping and the Japanese pirates who are dealing with Shen Chen this time. Even if Liu Biping really has such a great ability to kill the imperial envoy across the province, there is no need for him to choose such a close time. It is too risky to deal with Shen Chen in Dongchang Prefecture. He should wait until Shen Chen arrives in his sphere of influence before taking action. According to Shen Chen's speed, it will take only four or five days for him to arrive in his sphere of influence. Can't he wait for these four or five days?"
The second master was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted and looked at Wei An: "You mean, there is someone else who did it?"
Mrs. Wei was silent for a moment, and then she looked at Wei An as if she remembered something: "Do you think it's someone Shen Chen knows?"
In fact, she also suspected Princess Linjiang, but she didn't say it out loud right away.
Wei An smiled, but that smile didn't look happy at all, and even his eyes were cold.
"I don't know yet, but anything that makes Shen Chen afraid of being found out by the imperial court must be related to that side."
That place, you are referring to the Linjiang Palace, right
So what did Shen Chen do
The Third Master thought about it carefully and tried very hard to follow Wei An's train of thought: "Shen Chen knew that something was wrong and that he was being targeted. But if these people were implicated, it would also implicate the King of Linjiang. So he was concerned about this, so he deliberately took advantage of the situation and got captured?"
But this doesn't make sense.
No... ..
He reacted and it made sense.
What if those people wanted to kill Shen Chen, but they were indeed from the Linjiang Palace
Princess Linjiang... ..
The third master couldn't help but sigh in his heart, they are all women, but how come some are as capable as Wei An, able to draw inferences from everything and to look eight steps ahead before taking one step, while others just lag behind
Mrs. Wei finally spoke up: "If that's the case, Shen Chen should have known it himself. He arranged for Xuesong to deliver the letter to you and then returned to leave a way out for himself. They have their own way of contacting each other. Xuesong should be able to find him when he returns. He will naturally have a way to get away. Why did you still go?"
Wei An knew that Old Lady Wei was worried about her and wanted to stop her from taking any risks. After a moment of silence, she said softly, "You have to go."
She sighed and looked at Old Lady Wei: "It's not Liu Biping now, but after the news spreads, it will soon be possible."
Will it be possible soon
The second master and the third master quickly understood Wei An's meaning - after hearing the news, Liu Biping would probably send people immediately. They also hoped that Shen Chen would die, and might even have set a trap behind him. Now that they heard that Shen Chen was kidnapped, they would definitely send people to follow immediately and eliminate Shen Chen completely.
Old Madam Wei sighed, "Even if that's the case, you don't have to go in person. It would be the same if Tan Xi and the others went."
She herself knew that she was just speaking in anger. No matter how powerful Tan Xi and Zhao Qi were, they could not make decisions on many things on their own. They had to consult Wei An before making any decision.
If Wei An was not there, they would have to send someone to send a letter back to ask Wei An for instructions. In this way, who knows how many good opportunities to save people would be lost.
Therefore, after Old Lady Wei finished her words, she frowned again, and after a long while, she squinted her eyes and said, "Forget it, if you want to go, go ahead."
Seeing the second and third masters hurriedly calling her, she looked at them and said, "We are going to go anyway, it's just a little early now."
The third master disagreed even more: "Do you mean that you want to go with An An too?"
They were already extremely worried about Wei An's departure, and now there was an old lady Wei involved, so the risk increased exponentially. This was really unacceptable.
The Wei family cannot lose Old Lady Wei, the pillar of support.
Otherwise, it will be like a pile of loose sand that will fall apart if someone pinches it.
Mrs. Wei hummed, calmly: "Let's go together. If we go together, there will be more people and it will be safer. Otherwise, if An An goes first and I follow behind, who can guarantee that I won't be used as a threat to her and Shen Chen? If we keep hiding, won't it be in vain?"
The old lady always has a clear mind.
