Chapter 363 What a great blessing!
"Of course it's because of the old man," Tao Hong said, but suddenly changed her words: "The second prince must have heard how much Jiang Zhaorong loves Song Shiwei, the adopted daughter. I just couldn't bear to see the old man running around like this, so I came out of the house to ask for help."
Xiao Chuji paused: "You asked the Xu family for help? Are you sure that Jiang Zhiyu will help you?"
"Of course not," Tao Hong frowned: "I'm just a maid, I don't know any big shots, the reason why I came to the Xu Mansion is that I hope Madam Xu will remember the friendship with the old man in the past and ask for help."
"But unfortunately, the madam is not in the house. After I explained my purpose, Jiang Zhiyu directly refused."
Xiao Chuji tapped the table with one fingertips and supported his chin with one hand. He looked her up and down, and his emotions could not be seen.
I don't know whether I believe it or not.
Tao Hong's heartbeat quickened, so fast that she could hear it herself. She curled her lips and said, "If the Second Prince has nothing else to do, I will take my leave first."
After saying that, she stood up and left without waiting for Xiao Chuji's response.
She couldn't stay here for a second.
Looking at her hurriedly fleeing figure, Xiao Chuji's eyes were dark.
"Master..."
"Go and check what she said in Xu's house, and what Jiang Zhaorong has been doing these days."
The subordinate answered yes, but when Jiang Zhaorong was mentioned, his eyes flickered for a moment, and he said, "I ran into him today, in the tavern on the corner of the street."
Tavern?
If it was true as Tao Hong said, Jiang Zhaorong was running around for Song Shiwei's affairs, why would she appear in the tavern?
...
Jiang Zhaorong was sitting in the corner upstairs by the window.
From this position, with a window open, one can have a panoramic view of everything on the street in front of the Xu Mansion.
When he saw Taohong leaving the mansion and being taken away by another unexpected person, Jiang Zhaorong stood up suddenly and dropped the wine glass in his hand.
He would not mistake that person and that sign. It must be the Second Prince's man!
Why did Xiao Chuji send someone to guard here?
How did he know?
Did Taohong leak the secret that Song Shiwei was carrying clues to the treasure of the previous dynasty to Xiao Chuji?
He was full of doubts. After settling the bill, he hurried to the mansion.
...
On the other side of the Xu Mansion, a big battle ended with Jiang Kangan cutting the back of He Yanting's hand to indicate the end.
It was a scratch, but it was just a scratch on the skin. If he hadn't kept lifting it under Jiang Zhiyu's eyes, pulling the wound back and forth, it would have healed in a while.
Jiang Zhiyu bandaged him with a frown on his face. Jiang Kang'an, who was standing by, heard him groaning, saying, "It's not big brother's fault," "big brother didn't mean it,"
and "I was careless," "I didn't pay attention and bumped my hand into big brother's sword..."
The fragrance of tea filled the air, and Jiang Kang'an became stiff and his fists stiffened!
Fortunately, Jiang Zhiyu's voice prevented the upcoming war.
[Jiang Zhaorong has set her sights on this, it seems there is really no way. ]
[Where is the male protagonist, save him, what have you been doing! ]
Jiang Kang'an: "..."
What do you mean Jiang Zhaorong has set her sights on this?
The doubt lasted only a moment. The next second, Jiang Kangan connected everything together. A flash of enlightenment flashed across his eyes.
Jiang Zhaorong intentionally revealed the clue of the so-called treasure to Taohong!
Jiang Zhiyu's inner voice seemed to echo him.
[Jiang Zhaorong probably realized that the male protagonist was unreliable, so she resorted to this desperate measure.]
[Leaking the clue of the treasure to Taohong was implying that she could do anything for the treasure, even her own life. For herself and her child, Taohong would never watch all this happen.]
[She came to the clinic to see me before, and the news that I treated her illness must have reached Jiang Zhaorong's ears, so he planned this way.]
[In Jiang Zhaorong's eyes, I love money so much that it is impossible for me not to be tempted after knowing the clue of the treasure. 】
【In this way, I can go and save Song Shiwei. As for the clues to the treasure on Song Shiwei, Taohong must not know what it is specifically. Everything is known only to Jiang Zhaorong. 】
【It would be best if he can be rescued. Even if he cannot be rescued, it will not be Jiang Zhaorong's fault. 】
After listening to Jiang Zhiyu's thoughts, Jiang Kang'an's mouth twitched slightly.
Two years of not seeing each other is enough for you to gradually become unfamiliar with a close person.
But after listening to Jiang Zhiyu's words, Jiang Kang'an only felt that he had never understood this father.
In his memory, Jiang Zhaorong and Xu Youran had always had a good relationship until Du entered the mansion, and then there were some cracks.
But Jiang Zhaorong treated them as usual. Although he would be partial to Song Shiwei, he would not give them less than what they deserved.
It was not until Song Shiwei intended to frame them and take their lives in the Drunken Moon Cage, and Jiang Zhaorong still favored her despite the solid evidence, that Jiang Kangan's image of him changed.
And until today.
He used to think that Jiang Zhaorong was so partial to Song Shiwei because of her feelings for Song Shiwei's biological mother.
Now, he knows that it was purely because of interests.
Let's ask, who among them can create value that can compare to the treasures of the previous dynasty?
Even a young fish cannot compare to it in Jiang Zhaorong's heart.
After knowing all this, Jiang Kangan suddenly realized that when Jiang Kangan taught Song Shiwei a lesson, was it really because of who she hurt?
No, it wasn't.
He was just admonishing, or even warning Song Shiwei to stop.
Let her not have any thoughts that she shouldn't have.
[However, it's a pity that he doesn't know that Song Shiwei has a halo around him, so he can't do it for the time being. ]
[As long as one more person knows the secret of the so-called treasure of the previous dynasty, there will be more risks. ]
[Especially today, Tao Hong came again suddenly, and those who are interested may have already started investigating. ]
[Song Shiwei loves being admired, doesn't she? Soon, she will become a hot commodity that everyone in the world wants to have.]
[What a great blessing!]
Jiang Kangan: "..."
He Yanting: "..."
Although, this shouldn't be considered a blessing...
...
Jiang Zhaorong told Taohong that they were going to the Sixth Prince's Mansion, so the carriage drove to the Sixth Prince's Mansion as Jiang Zhaorong ordered. As for him, he walked all the way to the tavern.
Now he was in a hurry to go back, and he didn't have time to call the carriage, so he walked back.
When he just got back to the mansion, Taohong's carriage also arrived.
Jiang Zhaorong was sweating and breathing heavily. Taohong, who was getting off the carriage, was startled and asked concernedly, "What's wrong with you, husband?"
Jiang Zhaorong waved his hand and said, "No problem. I just felt bored in the carriage, so I got off to take a walk. Where did you go?"
Taohong paused, then smiled and walked to his side, "I just went out for a walk. Did the Sixth Prince give me any reply?"
