Xiao Jiayi pushed the window hard, wanting to see more clearly, but the window had been half-blocked with wooden bars by the servants and could not be moved any further.
She went straight behind the door and slammed it hard.
"Someone, let me out! Let me out now!"
The few people who were originally in charge of guarding the courtyard heard the noise and hurriedly turned back, but how could they care about Xiao Jiayi at this time?
——The news has spread throughout the palace! The Marquis has been taken away by the imperial guards!
What this means is almost self-evident!
The dignified Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery has now been escorted into the palace by the imperial guards. I’m afraid that the Xie family... is about to collapse!
"Don't just stand there! Why don't you run!? If you get implicated later, you'll probably lose your head!"
"That's right! Even the Marquis can't protect himself, let alone us!?"
"Alas! I don't know what happened. How, how did the Marquis' Mansion change so suddenly overnight? "
There was a noisy and hurried discussion, and Xiao Jiayi heard most of it.
She became more and more certain of her guess - it must be that the things Xie Anjun did were exposed!
The Imperial Guards dared to come directly to "invite someone" in such a high-profile manner, there was no chance of escape!
Xiao Jiayi was excited and relieved. She knocked on the door a few times but still couldn't open it.
She bit her lip, feeling a little anxious.
Since being locked up here, her health has been getting worse day by day. If it weren't for the belief in revenge in her deepest heart, I'm afraid she wouldn't have survived until today.
I have waited so long for this moment, how can I enjoy it if I don’t appreciate it? ?
In addition, more importantly, there is——
“Mother——!”
A cry suddenly came from outside.
Xiao Jiayi was startled and ran back to the open window to look out. The next moment, she saw Xie Yulin running towards her with tears all over his face.
His clothes were in a mess, and it looked like he hadn't had time to put them on properly.
Xiao Jiayi's heart suddenly rose, "Lin'er!"
When Xie Yulin heard this voice, he finally saw the familiar face behind the narrow window.
Although she looked much more haggard, she was indeed the mother he had not seen for a long time!
"mother!"
Xie Yulin came running over crying, his tears falling even more fiercely, his chest heaving violently, he was extremely aggrieved and flustered.
"Mom, I finally see you! I, I——"
Xiao Jiayi subconsciously wanted to reach out and hug him, but the gap was too narrow, not even enough for her to stretch her arm out.
Helplessly, she could only comfort him softly with red eyes, "Lin'er, mother is here, why did you come here by yourself? Where are the others?"
Xie Yulin wiped his tears and sobbed, "I don't know where they went... I heard that daddy was arrested, mom, I'm so scared!"
Xiao Jiayi felt bitter and angry, but she could only suppress it all at this moment.
"Don't be afraid, Lin'er. Mom is here."
As she said that, she turned around and searched around the room. She didn't know where she got the strength from, but she picked up a chair and smashed it hard against the door!
Clank—bang!
The door that was originally locked was broken open by her just like that!
But this time, Xiao Jiayi had exhausted all her strength. Her body swayed and she fell straight forward!
Xie Yulin was startled and rushed over, "Mom!"
His crying became more intense.
"Mom, how are you?"
Xiao Jiayi felt a warm current flowing silently on her forehead.
She slowly raised her hand and touched it. It was sticky, fishy and sweet, and her hands were bright red.
It was her forehead that accidentally hit the broken door panel, leaving a big cut.
In the blink of an eye, blood gushed out. (End of this chapter)
