The night always makes people let go of some of their concerns. With the cover of the night, some words that were originally difficult to say seem to become simple.
After taking the most difficult step, becoming closer became a natural thing. Wei An could already feel at ease holding Shen Chen's hand without feeling awkward.
Shen Chen smiled beside her, holding his chin and looking at Wei An leisurely. He felt that everything about her was good and she was beautiful no matter how he looked at her.
Wei An felt a little embarrassed, but more of it was sweet joy. He glared at him to make him calm down, then reached out to pour a cup of tea for Shen Chen, and said to him: "Okay, it's time to talk about business... Liu Biping must have sent a lot of people to set up checkpoints everywhere. Be very careful when you go back later."
Wei An didn't need to explain this, Shen Chen naturally knew it. If he was discovered by Liu Biping, it would mean that Wei An would also be in danger, and he would never let Wei An fall into danger.
He nodded, and seeing Wei An lower her head and start writing a letter, he asked her, "Are you writing to the prefect of Quanzhou?"
Wei An came back in a hurry. In order to avoid being seen, she did not dare to reveal her whereabouts. Many things had not been arranged yet. She hummed and said, "There are still some things to do. It will be fine once they are finished."
She had been in Quanzhou for quite some time. Before that, Liu Biping had to deal with Shen Chen and felt that she was doomed to die, so he did not spend too much time on her.
But now something has changed and Mrs. Liu is missing. Liu Biping will definitely pay attention to her again.
Liu Biping forced the refugees suffering from the plague in Quanzhou to flee into the city. Wei An had already collected all the evidence, and as long as he handed it over, it would be a ready-made charge.
The plague has claimed the lives of many people in Quanzhou. Under the operation of Wei An and the Quanzhou prefect, many people have already known that the governor is indifferent to the plague, and instead wants to burn the city and destroy the land to take their lives. After so many days, they have already complained about Liu Biping.
Now that Liu Biping is extremely angry and heading towards a dead end, she must give him a push.
Shen Chen stood by and watched her finish writing, then clapped his hands and laughed: "Your arrangement is also very appropriate. The inspector has been at odds with Liu Biping for many years, but he has always been suppressed by Liu Biping and can't get any handle on Liu Biping. Now that he has heard your news, he will definitely fight Liu Biping to the death. By then, Liu Biping will be almost done."
The two talked for a while, and the sky gradually became brighter.
Before he knew it, he had already been delayed for a whole night. After Xuesong knocked on the door to remind him, Shen Chen felt a little annoyed. Looking at the dark circles under Wei An's eyes, he felt very guilty.
He had known for a long time that Wei An had not rested well. When he saw Wei An before, he said that she had lost weight, but now he kept her awake for the whole night and prevented her from getting a good rest.
He frowned, touched Wei An's head, and said, "I have to go first. You stay here with Madam Liu and wait for a few days. When things are almost done over there, I will send you the news."
It's almost too late.
Wei An flexed his wrist, agreed, and then remembered something, and asked Shen Chen: "By the way, did Young Master Lin write you a letter?"
Speaking of Young Master Lin, Shen Chen stopped walking. He glanced at Wei An and shook his head. "I've been busy investigating Liu Biping's plans along the pirate line, and trying to win over the Xu and Chen families. I haven't contacted Young Master Lin for a long time."
Even the letters sent by Chu Jingwu gradually became less and less.
He knew that Liu Biping was behind this and that Liu Biping didn't want him to know the truth.
Wei An seemed to have guessed it, and was not surprised to see Shen Chen say that. He just said to him: "Young Master Lin wrote me a letter, saying that something happened to the Sixth Prince..."
Shen Chen's face remained calm, but his eyes became complicated.
Although he knew that Concubine Peng De would give up sooner or later, it was unexpected that she would do it so early.
Wei An sat down, put the letter he had written beside him, looked at Shen Chen across the table, straightened his back and whispered, "I'm afraid Concubine Yu played a big role in this."
Concubine Yu was not a fool. If she wanted to do anything around the emperor, she would have reported it to Prince Linjiang.
Prince Linjiang agreed and asked Concubine Yu to persuade Concubine Peng De to do this to Concubine Lin Shu's sixth prince. Doesn't this also mean that Prince Linjiang thinks the time has come
Shen Chen's eyes were hidden under the light, and it was hard to tell what his emotions were.
Wei An quietly waited for Shen Chen to figure out the trick here, and then he gently reminded him: "You didn't receive the news. Is it because the prince didn't want to tell you, or is there someone who deliberately didn't let you know the news?"
There is no way that King Linjiang would not tip off Shen Chen.
Among them, the only ones who could block the news of Prince Linjiang were Princess Linjiang and Concubine Yu.
Both of them have the motivation and capital to take action.
Shen Chen was silent for a moment, then said, "I received a letter from my father, but it did not mention this matter. It seems that there is a problem among my people. I will have someone conduct a thorough investigation."
This kind of thing must be investigated strictly, otherwise, you will be taken advantage of by others without knowing it.
Wei An hummed, without any taboo, and looked him in the eye and said directly: "If possible, the matter with the princess must be completely resolved, otherwise, it will always be a hidden danger."
Princess Linjiang is too stubborn, and she is still a princess, so there are so many things she can do.
If she didn't let go of the knot in her heart, would Shen Chen have to be schemed against by her all the time? Such schemes would never end. But she felt that neither she nor Shen Chen owed Princess Linjiang anything.
There was no need to bear such a fierce anger from her.
After all, it was not them who were causing trouble, and they did not kill Chu Jingxing because they wanted to, but because Chu Jingxing had been provoking them endlessly.
Besides, the final order to kill Chu Jingxing was given by King Linjiang.
Chu Jingwu also participated in it.
However, Princess Linjiang did not blame Prince Linjiang or Chu Jingwu, but only came to cause trouble for Shen Chen. This was a bit too unreasonable.
She was going to spend her whole life with Shen Chen, so naturally she didn't want to have someone who was always causing trouble and whom she couldn't do anything about, hanging over her.
Shen Chen immediately understood what Wei An meant. He was also a little annoyed by Princess Linjiang's constant little actions. He frowned and said, "Don't worry, I know what's going on."
After dealing with the Fujian issue, he will explain the matter to the King of Linjiang and put an end to it.
Wei An was about to nod when Xue Song knocked on the door again: "Something happened!"
