Spring Secrets

Chapter 89: Eighty-nine. Settlement of accounts

Views:

Nanny Li finally revealed Nanny Ge's residence. It was not because she was not afraid of Princess Changning, but because she was too afraid that she had to tell Wei An - otherwise Wei An would have said he would have gone to the old princess to complain.

And once the old princess knew that Zhuang Feng was framed by Princess Changning who instigated Madam Ge to instigate Li Shenglan, specifically to embarrass Wei An, how could the matter be covered up

Princess Changning had repeatedly told the old princess not to let the old princess know that Wei An was not her biological daughter...

She felt a little headache. She didn't dare to offend Princess Changning, and now Wei An had the handle on her. Her heart ached so much that she was unsteady when she walked.

Wei An couldn't take care of her. She didn't have many people on hand. So far, only Wen Xiu and Su Ping could be used. Unfortunately, the two of them were too young and grew up in Tongzhou. They were not familiar with the capital at all...

Finally, she held her temper and waited until the shop owner of the shop given to her by the old princess came in to identify the person before she asked the shop owner named Sun Xing to go to the place that Nanny Li mentioned to look for the person.

The shopkeeper was the son of the old princess's maid. He had been with the old princess for many years. He was able to read and write, all thanks to the old princess's grace, and was very loyal to her. Now that the old princess had repeatedly told him to listen to Wei An and had specially given Wei An all the documents of their family's surrender, he listened to Wei An wholeheartedly and immediately led people to look for the Jiujing Hutong that Nanny Li had mentioned.

But he came back empty-handed, and felt a little embarrassed to Wei An: "I just arrived, and the person is gone... I heard that there was no movement yesterday..."

Nanny Li was so trembling that she almost cried. She waved her hands when she saw Wei An's suspicious look and said, "He really lived there. I didn't dare to let anyone know. But there are so many people in this mansion and they all have different opinions. Besides, the matter didn't work out. I'm afraid someone from my cousin's place let the cat out of the bag..."

Wei An knew that what she said was true. She had met Madam Ge in her previous life. She was an extremely capable and experienced old madam, very useful. She must not have noticed that things did not develop as she had planned. Since Princess Changning had repeatedly warned that this matter must not be made public, she must have run away.

Nanny Wang was extremely worried: "If the princess knew about this..."

Wei An hadn't done anything yet, but the princess was planning to ruin her marriage prospects. Now that Wei An has survived, the princess must be even more angry.

Wei An thought about it, and asked Nanny Wang to go out and ask Sun Xing to do something else: "Tell Shopkeeper Sun to check..."

She always felt that Qinghe couldn't just get lost for no reason. Tongzhou wasn't some remote mountain village, and there would always be traces of a living person.

Nanny Wang had to go out, so Wei An stared at Nanny Li.

Now Nanny Li is obviously a hot potato. She doesn't know much, but she is a gun in the hands of Princess Changning. She is a little undecided whether to silence her or keep her by her side first.

It is too risky to silence her now. She is no longer the concubine of Prince Jing'an who held considerable power at the end of her previous life. She is now just a young lady from a marquis's mansion who rarely even leaves the door.

But stay by my side...

After all, people like Nanny Li are old foxes. Old foxes are the hardest to bribe and the most fickle. They are like smooth stones that have been polished. They always know how to choose what is best for themselves. They are also the most powerful, so it is very difficult to recruit them for your own use.

She rubbed her forehead until Nanny Li couldn't stand it anymore and knelt down in front of her because her legs were shaking so badly. Then she made up her mind and asked her casually, "Mammy, how about letting your daughter come to work in the mansion?"

Nanny Li was startled. When she looked up, she saw Wei An's calm eyes without any emotion. Before she could react, she heard Wei An say, "As for you, please go to Nanchang and help me with something..."

Nanny Li felt not only her legs going weak, but even her hands began to tremble. She looked at Wei An as if he was a monster and could not utter a word.

Wei An knew how to find her weakness. She could give up anything in her life except her daughter... She closed her eyes. It was a hot summer day, but she felt a chill down her spine. After careful consideration, she bowed her head respectfully.

Quite sensible.

Wei An laughed coldly: "Fortunately, Mom agreed, otherwise I don't know what I would have done."

This was a warning and a threat. Coming from a child, it was too unconvincing. However, Li Ma didn't find it funny. She swallowed with great difficulty. She felt that Wei An above her was more difficult to deal with than Princess Changning. She knelt on the ground and kept expressing her loyalty: "It's all at your command..."

Wei An was confused as to whether he believed her or not. He hummed, walked around the screen and went into the inner room. After a while, he came out with a letter and handed it to her, instructing her: "Take this letter to Nanchang and deliver it to my father..."

Her voice was cold and chilling: "Listen carefully, Mammy. I will only say this once. If this letter is seen by a second person, if anyone else besides the people in this room knows about it, not only your daughter, but also your grandson and your son-in-law... I guarantee that not even a bone will be left of them..."

As expected, she is still the same ruthless, cruel and emotionless Miss Wei Qi! Nanny Li wanted to cry but had no tears. She held the letter to her chest as if it were a life-saving elixir: "Don't worry! Don't worry! I will do everything you say..."

She had no choice, as Wei An held the old princess's favorite, Shopkeeper Sun Xingsun, in his hands. He was a truly powerful man...

Wei An asked Lan He to fetch another thirty taels of silver, and told Li Ma: "I'm not asking you to go alone. Go to Tongzhou and wait for your sister. Uncle Wang will go with you..."

This was surveillance, and Nanny Li knew it very well. She kept nodding with a bitter face.

Wei An stood up and asked people to pack up. The old princess was right. It was better not to stay here for the time being. Princess Zhennan was not a kind woman. She might not really swallow this humiliation. If she did something, it would hurt their feelings and make the old princess embarrassed.

After all, she doesn't have much ability now, and she is not strong enough. She can't just insist on some things, so she has to pretend to be deaf and dumb.

But just as she hugged the old princess and whispered a lot of words to her, she said goodbye and left, and the carriage was stopped on Suzaku Street.

It's a bit late, I overslept in the afternoon... ... I'll try my best to update it, if I can't, I'll come tomorrow morning~~~
