Chapter 1524 The Jiang family will be dragged down by him!
Chapter 1524 The Jiang family will be brought down by him!
After Mrs. Jiang returned to her room, she cried for a long time.
Half an hour later, Cao Zirou was led to the room by her maid.
"Aunt, are you looking for me?" Cao Zirou said tremblingly.
There was still a hint of fear on his face, and his expression was still ugly.
She looked at Mrs. Jiang and felt that she had transformed from a plump and noble woman to a down and out ordinary person overnight.
The Jiang family, which used to be sparkling in Cao Zirou's eyes, has become like mud on the ground.
Even if you step on them, your shoes will feel dirty.
"Zirou, you're here." Mrs. Jiang's voice was hoarse as she cried.
She confessed: "I can't count on anyone else in the house now. I can't control where Xiao Ran is. I just want to save the old man's life."
"Zirou, if you are unfamiliar with me, you should listen to my advice and leave through the back door hidden in the rockery to find a doctor to prescribe medicine. My father is old and his illness cannot be delayed any longer."
Cao Zirou's heart skipped a beat.
She had a soft look on her face, as if she was in a state of confusion.
Said: "But aunt, there are guards inside and outside this mansion. If I are caught by them, it will not be easy for me..."
Cao Zirou paused and then said: "Auntie, do you still have any expensive jewelry? You might as well give me a few and I'll hide them on my body. If I encounter any obstruction by the imperial guards, I can only try to use money to comfort them and ask them to be lenient.
.”
After hearing this, Mrs. Jiang quickly took out the makeup box.
Put the gold, silver, jade, rings, necklaces and other items that she usually likes into her hands.
"Take it, go quickly and buy some more ginseng for emergencies."
Cao Zirou clutched the gold and silver tightly and nodded heavily.
Seeing her leaving, Mrs. Jiang supported the table and pressed her eyebrows.
Her headache was severe.
From the corner of her eye, Mrs. Jiang saw her somewhat haggard face in the mirror.
She recalled the first half of her life in a daze.
Why have things reached this point?
I think she came from a powerful family, and she and Mr. Jiang were in love with each other back then, and they were a good match.
I have been married into the Jiang family for more than 20 years and have lived a smooth life. I have everything I want.
Mr. Jiang kept a clean life and never took concubines. He respected her and cared for her in everything.
After having her son, her life became more comfortable.
But why is it like this now?
In the afternoon, Mrs. Jiang lay on the table and fell asleep.
But the footsteps of the Imperial Guards were heard at the door. Their voices were unceremonious and they asked roughly: "Is Mrs. Jiang here?"
She woke up suddenly.
As if he heard the urging voice, with a panic look on his face, he stood up and opened the door.
However, they saw Mr. Xie standing next to him, and the imperial guard beside him was holding the messy Cao Zirou.
Mrs. Jiang felt a chill in her heart.
Finally got caught...
She spoke with a dry voice: "Master Xie, this matter has nothing to do with Zi Rou. I asked her to go."
Xie Chun, the minister of Dali Temple, looked at her, a little confused.
"She wants to leave the capital by boat. Was this also ordered by Mrs. Jiang?"
Mrs. Jiang was stunned and looked at Cao Zirou: "What?"
The Imperial Guard explained in a cold voice: "When we saw her sneaking out of Jiang Mansion, we thought she was going to meet the deserter Mr. Jiang, so we followed her all the time."
"But I saw this young lady going directly to the ferry and planning to leave Beijing by boat!"
Mrs. Jiang looked at Cao Zirou in disbelief.
"Didn't I ask you to buy medicine? Why would you want to escape?!"
When Cao Zirou saw what had happened, she didn't intend to pretend anymore.
She raised her head and stared at Mrs. Jiang fiercely.
"If I don't run away, will I wait to be dragged down by you to death! Jiang Xiaoran has accomplished nothing. I could have ignored him because he has no ability, but the Jiang family will be dragged down by him. He is a waste!"
