Wei Qingyan disguised herself as a man since childhood, defended the empire, and expanded its territory, but died on her triumphant return. Revived from death, she became a soul guide, resolving gr...
Chapter 105 Madam Wei Becomes Suspicious
Lan Shu's face immediately darkened. "Madam Wei is also a mother. How can you curse my child?"
Seeing that she was about to get angry, Madam Wei explained, "Shu...you misunderstood. I didn't mean to curse you. I was just worried that your expectations would be too high and you would be disappointed in the future."
She knew what Lan Shu looked like when she went crazy, and was really afraid that she would go crazy at this moment, causing unnecessary troubles along the way.
Lan Shu snorted, "We were so worried about your safety on the road that we rushed over here. You are such a disgusting person.
Maybe you were the one who provoked the assassin earlier. If you dare to curse my child again, we won't protect your child if he's in danger."
After saying that, she glared at Madam Wei, and without caring that Madam Wei's face was as pale as paper, she jumped off the carriage and left.
Judging from Madam Wei’s reaction just now, she was almost certain that the girl was her daughter, but she didn’t know how she ended up beside Madam Wei.
But Madam Wei did not treat her daughter well. Provoking her with two words was the least of her worries. If it is found out that Madam Wei was involved in the child swap, she will definitely make her pay with blood.
Her daughter actually died once.
Wei Qingyan had been paying attention to everything here. Seeing Lan Shu, who had originally had a gloomy face, turned excited after turning around, he held her hand tightly as soon as he came to her.
She then understood everything.
A Gu got the answer from Madam Wei.
They rushed here in a hurry to escort Wanyi and the others, and also to take advantage of the fact that Madam Wei was distracted by King Jing's assassination to find out her background.
Auntie's pretended madness made her relax her guard.
Lan Shu told Wei Qingyan in detail about their conversation and Madam Wei's subtle movements. Suppressing her excitement, she said in a trembling voice, "She seems to know more than we thought.
She subconsciously wanted to call me Concubine Shu, but then changed her mind. She also asked if my madness was cured.
I pretended to be crazy back then, and the royal family thought it was shameful and kept it a secret from the outside world. I took the divorce letter and left the palace, and outsiders didn't know about it.
But she seems to know everything. Girl, do you think she has planted someone in the East Palace?"
If that were the case, it would be much easier to steal her child.
Without waiting for Wei Qingyan's answer, she denied it herself, "That doesn't make sense. She's the wife of the General Protector of the Nation, why would she plant someone in the East Palace? Who is she keeping an eye on?"
Wei Qingyan thought of Madam Wei’s lover. Could it be the emperor?
Before she could think about it, she saw Wei Wanyi and Yan Lan coming over together.
"I heard from Yan Lan that she thanks you two for accompanying her to look for Yan Qing, and also thanks you for showing up here." Wei Wanyi bowed to the two of them.
Lan Shu smiled and exchanged a few words with her.
Wei Wanyi suddenly looked at the Posha gun carried on Wei Qingyan's back. In order not to attract attention on the road, Shi Yu ordered someone to make a leather case for the Posha gun.
You can't recognize Posha without opening the leather case.
Wei Qingyan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Princess Jing likes guns?"
Wei Wanyi slowly shook her head, "I have never practiced martial arts, but my brother is good with a spear. My father once praised him for being better than his father.
I've never seen a woman using a spear as a weapon, so I looked at her a little longer, please forgive me."
"It's okay." Wei Qingyan smiled and his eyes met Madam Wei who was walking towards him.
Madam Wei came to see Wei Wanyi.
But when Wei Wanyi saw Madam Wei coming, she was unwilling to meet her. After greeting Wei Qingyan and Lan Shu, she pulled Yan Lan back to her carriage.
Yan Lan has been in the Wei family for many years, and Wei Wanyi has never treated her as warmly as she does today.
Thinking of what she had experienced, Yan Lan understood Wei Wanyi's thoughts. Perhaps because there was no one behind her, she became particularly cherishing her old friend and cooperated with her and followed her.
As a woman with similar experiences, she sympathized with Wei Wanyi, but more because she was a member of the Wei family. Whether for the sake of General Wei or Qingyan, she should protect Wei Wanyi and her two children at this time.
When Yan Lan realized what she was thinking, she was stunned. She was originally the one protected by Miss Chang, but now she also had the idea of protecting others.
It was Miss Chang who taught her to grow up.
When Madam Wei saw Wei Wanyi leaving, there was a look of loss in her eyes. She wanted to explain to her that she didn't know that King Jing had sent assassins to hurt her.
But Wanyi didn't give her a chance to speak, so she had to stop and was about to return to the carriage, but she noticed Wei Qingyan's spear out of the corner of her eye.
She paused for a moment, then walked closer. She saw Lan Shu holding Wei Qingyan's hand in a very intimate manner. She couldn't help but ask, "Who is this?"
"My girl is also the sister of Marquis Anyuan." Lan Shu still looked unhappy, but she put her arm around Wei Qingyan, looking like she was protecting her child.
Du Xueyi found his sister. Madam Wei had heard from King Jing that seeing how familiar the two seemed, she thought they must have known each other before, so she said politely, "I'm glad you're back. Your brother has been thinking about you for years, and now he can rest assured."
Wei Qingyan did not greet her. After she regained her memory, she thought of various scenarios of meeting her mother again. Unexpectedly, when they met again, she found that she was no longer her mother.
Madam Wei probably didn't expect that she would be so cold, and her face turned cold. Lan Shu was also indifferent, so she should have left.
But as Wei Wanyi said, there are very few women in this world who are accustomed to using spears, so she couldn't help but think more about it.
Wei Qingyan didn't wait for her to speak, and said first, "Madam, when you saw my spear, did you think of your son?"
"My Qingyan has been learning to use the spear since he was young." Madam Wei had a sad look on her face.
Then, as if trying hard to conceal his emotions, he casually asked, "You don't look like a soldier, so why did you choose a spear as your weapon?"
Wei Qingyan looked a little boastful, "This gun was not chosen by me, it was given to me by a friend from the underworld. I heard it was not easy to get. I really like it and it looks impressive, so I carry it with me.
I heard that General Wei's Sha-breaking Spear is a top-notch weapon, rare in the world. Madam, could you help me see which one is better, my spear or General Wei's Sha-breaking Spear?"
"Okay." Madam Wei nodded. This was exactly what she wanted.
But when Wei Qingyan took off the leather case and saw Posha clearly, Madam Wei's heart instantly jumped into her throat, "This is Posha, who are you?"
Wei Qingyan ignored her last words and hurriedly snatched the spear back from Madam Wei, "Madam, don't joke, the Sha Po is General Wei's weapon.
Even if it was not buried with General Wei, you should have kept it carefully as a remembrance. How could it be left outside?
I haven't had enough of it yet, so don't try to take my gun for yourself just because it's nice."
Madam Wei stared at Wei Qingyan intently, and only when she was sure that the person in front of her had nothing in common with Wei Qingyan did she secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
She was sure that Wei Qingyan would blow herself up with thunder, but as the incident at Huangshaling became known, she kept wondering if Wei Qingyan was not dead at all.
After all, she had never seen her body, so she became suspicious when she saw the woman carrying a spear.
Wei Qingyan's death was not caused by her, so she shouldn't feel guilty. However, her behavior after Wei Qingyan's death, as well as many things that happened recently, always made her feel uneasy.
She vaguely felt that if Wei Qingyan were alive, she would not have a good ending.
She was worried and confirmed again, "This spear is indeed a Sha-breaking Spear. Miss, can you tell me how this spear came into your hands?"
