Chapter 385
After hearing Jiang Zuiyao's words, Jiang asked with suspicion, "How can I trust you?"
One question completely distanced the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
However, it is understandable that Shao Ziqing disappeared suddenly and silently, and then news of treason spread, and then Jiang Zuiyao also joined the Imperial City Division, and then disappeared.
The rumors and rumors that Jiang had heard about this kind of thing were just superficial, and she had no idea of the inside story. In addition, in order to see Chu Yi, Jiang Zuiyao had forcefully entered the house and killed a servant. All the things were connected together.
How can Mr. Jiang feel at ease?
Jiang Zuiyao understood all this, but she didn't have a single explanation. She only said: "Does mother know where father has gone? I will tell my father clearly."
Jiang's face tightened and became colder: "If you have anything to say, you can tell me the same thing."
Jiang Zuiyao can be regarded as someone who has lived in the Shao family. She knows that although the Jiang family is the head matron, she still cannot be the master of the huge sum of five hundred thousand taels. In addition, the things inside are complicated, and she is not the only one.
The woman can understand it.
Therefore, Jiang Zuiyao insisted: "If mother wants to save my sister, she should hurry up and get father back. We only have three days to do it, so we can't delay it."
After all, something happened to Jiang's own daughter. Of course, she was anxious. She had been missing for many days without a trace. In her anxiety, she didn't care whether Jiang Zuiyao had other thoughts, and even went out to ask someone to call Shaojiang.
return.
When Jiang went out, Jiang Zuiyao caught a glimpse of the silk handkerchief Jiang put on the table and took a closer look. There were orchids embroidered on the corners of the silk handkerchief. Thinking back to the way Jiang was looking at the handkerchief just now, it seemed that there must be something special about it.
meaningful.
After adding charcoal to the fire, Xue Qing stood up and saw Jiang Zuiyao looking at the silk handkerchief and thinking about it, and said, "This handkerchief was embroidered by the former lady."
In this way, Jiang Zuiyao understood.
After waiting for a long time, until the sky turned dark, Shaojiang people returned home. I heard that Jiang went to a place he knew to evacuate, and finally sent someone to inquire after a long time, and found Shaojiang in the palace.
Shao Jiang came back in a hurry, and as soon as he entered the front hall, he was equally surprised when he saw Jiang Zuiyao.
But according to Jiang and his servants, he was not shocked, nor did he ask any other unimportant questions. He went straight to the point: "Where is Wanyun?"
Jiang Zuiyao looked around at the Jiang family and the miscellaneous servants, and Shaojiang said: "You all get out."
Naturally, the servants did not dare to leave carelessly, but Jiang did not leave, but sat down.
Shaojiang then said: "You also go out."
Jiang was stunned and immediately became anxious: "Why should I go out?"
Shao Jiang frowned and said, "When I ask you clearly, I will tell you naturally."
But Jiang was still unwilling: "Wanyun is my biological daughter, why can't I stay and listen clearly."
"Go out if you are told!" Shaojiang roared. Jiang was about to complain in a hurry, but was stopped by Xue Qing on the side. Xue Qing gave Jiang a look and shook her head, and Jiang gave up.
, reluctantly threw away his sleeves and left.
Everyone who should leave had left, and Shaojiang said, "Tell me, where are the Wanyun people?"
"Liancheng." Jiang Zuiyao replied, which surprised Shaojiang, but then he was frightened: "What did you say? Wanyun is in Liancheng?"
Jiang Zuiyao nodded firmly, which made Shaojiang even more restless. He knew what happened in Liancheng.
At this moment, Shaojiang was really anxious: "Why did Wanyun go to Liancheng? She has nothing to do with this!"
Jiang Zuiyao knew what this "matter" was, so she didn't need to ask any more questions and said, "She is your daughter and the regent's daughter-in-law."
Shaojiang suddenly stood up and walked back and forth several times. He thought about it but couldn't figure out how to save Wanyun. After all, the Taixuan clan was too powerful and he didn't know what to do.
Jiang Zuiyao then spoke: "Actually, it's not difficult to save Wanyun. You can redeem her with money."
When Shao Jiang heard something, he quickly stopped. The most important thing for the Shao family was money. He immediately said without hesitation, "As long as I can save Wanyun, I can get it with as much money as I need!"
Jiang Zuiyao tightened her lips and spat out a few words: "Five hundred thousand taels."
In an instant, Shaojiang was speechless.
Five hundred thousand taels is not a small amount.
His face gradually darkened, and finally the corner of his eye fell, and his body followed suit. He sat on a chair, thought about it, and asked, "Does the Taixuan clan mean it?"
Jiang Zuiyao nodded.
Shaojiang clenched his teeth. Although he was unwilling to give in, he did not hesitate: "Okay! I will raise money immediately!"
After saying this, Shao Jiang was about to stand up. Before Jiang Zuiyao finished speaking, he hurriedly said: "The Taixuan clan only gives three days."
As soon as these words came out, Shao Jiang's expression suddenly changed: "Three days? Five hundred thousand taels! Isn't three days enough?"
Also, although the Shao family could afford 500,000 taels, they did not have that much ready-made silver. Their business was spread all over Zhaojing. Shaojiang followed closely: "We are working hard to deliver it, but it will take more than ten days."
, or I’ll send someone directly to Liancheng.”
Jiang Zuiyao frowned and said, "No, it will be too late."
Shao Jiang immediately became angry: "Is it possible that the Taixuan clan really dares to kill Wan Yun? Don't you just want money? I'll give it to you. Are there still a few days left?"
Jiang Zuiyao told the key to the problem: "The Taixuan clan gave Wanyun poison. If he doesn't take the antidote within a month, I'm afraid Wanyun won't survive."
Such news undoubtedly made matters worse, and it was enough to make Shaojiang tremble all over, and he suddenly took a few steps back, almost losing his balance.
After calming down for a while, he finally spoke: "What did you say? Wan Yun was poisoned?"
Jiang Zuiyao nodded: "When I saw Wanyun that day, she had been poisoned for several days. Plus I came here to waste some time, it had already been ten days, not to mention that the Taixuan tribe only gave me three days.
If I can't get the money back, I'm afraid something will happen."
Shao Jiang was completely discouraged at this time. He piled on the chair and looked helpless: "But it's five hundred thousand taels! He still needs cash. How can he get enough in just three days?"
Jiang Zuiyao also understood the difficulty and said, "My father has many connections in Zhaojing. How about I ask someone to raise the money first, and I will pay you back when your money arrives."
"Do you think it's tens of thousands of taels of silver? That's half a million taels!" Shaojiang roared in despair.
Jiang Zuiyao thought for a while and then said: "How about father make arrangements first and get as much as you can, and then I will discuss the rest with the Taixuan clan."
After all, Shao Jiang was a member of the imperial court. He thought quickly and immediately replied: "The most important thing right now is the antidote! If they can't come up with 500,000 taels, can the Taixuan clan give the antidote to Wan Yun? They
Why should Wan Yun be captured, why!"
