Chapter 598 Take me to the Meridian Gate!
Liao Jiu, Zhan Wang and others went to see off all the guests.
Jiang Lianzhu took the children and prepared to get on the carriage to return home.
Prince Zhan’s mansion is large and grand, but it is not as good as the home he is used to living in.
Suddenly, my eyelids twitched and that ominous premonition came back!
Jiang Lianzhu was inexplicably anxious. Dabao noticed that she looked unhappy. "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, just a little nervous."
Dabao lowered his voice and asked, "Is it caused by the blessing ceremony?"
Jiang Lianzhu shook her head, "No, it has nothing to do with this..."
My instinct was to go home quickly.
Liao Jiu came back after seeing off the guests, and Zhan Wang came with him. He also wanted to live in the other courtyard. He used to do so to suppress the cold poison, but now he wanted to live next door to Qinxiang's daughter and protect her.
Zhan Wang and Liao Jiu rode horses, while Jiang Lianzhu took the three children in a carriage.
Just as they were about to set off, they saw a servant coming to report, "Master, Madam..."
It’s Li Niang!
This is calling Jiang Lianzhu, Liao Jiu and others.
Jiang Lianzhu stuck her head out of the carriage and asked, "What's going on?"
Li Niang also came on a fast horse, "Master, Madam, the old lady is missing..."
Jiang Lianzhu's heart began to beat wildly.
She had just felt unwell, and now the discomfort was even worse.
"Tell me more."
Li Niang took a breath. "Today, after lunch, the old lady said she felt bored staying in the room all the time, so she suggested that we take her out for a walk to welcome you back home. It was a rare kindness from the old lady, so we took her out. There were so many people on the street, and she disappeared before we knew it. We sent people to look for her everywhere, but we couldn't find her..."
At this point, I was already crying with anxiety.
Jiang Lianzhu's heart sank even more.
Liao Jiudao said, "Where did she disappear? Take us to see..."
The War King also heard it, and with a slight wave of his hand, hundreds of soldiers silently gathered behind him.
Li Niang said, "It's on the main street in front of our Prince Xiang's Mansion..."
Jiang Lianzhu abandoned the carriage and asked for a horse. She rode ahead and went to find someone first.
The three snow wolves howled a few times and followed her horse, running away wildly.
…
He rode his horse to the street where Jiang Cheng disappeared. There were still a lot of people here at this time, and many of them were from Prince Xiang's Mansion, who were looking for Jiang Cheng.
"Did you find it?"
Li Niang asked them in panic.
"No."
The people in Prince Zhan's mansion began to search everywhere without being told.
The capital city is very big, and this is the main street. If someone is kidnapped here, it will be difficult to find clues.
The biggest suspect now is that someone from Baihualou attacked her.
Liao Jiu came to Jiang Lianzhu's side and said, "Wife, don't worry. The War King has already asked the Gray Guards to help look for him. I have also asked Xiang Zuo and the others to look for him. Even if the capital is big, we will definitely find him."
Jiang Lianzhu's uneasy premonition became stronger and stronger.
She shook her head. "It doesn't look like she was captured. It would be useless for Baihualou to capture my mother now. Besides, Baihualou wouldn't be stupid enough to capture my mother in public."
If they act now, it will give the War King a chance to take action.
At this time, they should lie in wait. There is no need to attack the War King so quickly unless they are absolutely sure.
But it is obviously not suitable for this occasion.
Liao Jiu had obviously considered all of this. "Then...did Mother leave on her own? Where would she go?"
Jiang Lianzhu suddenly thought of something and called Li Niang over. "My mother is out for a walk. Does she have anything with her?"
Li Niang was stunned. "No, I didn't bring anything... I'm just wearing too much."
Jiang Lianzhu said nothing more. She got on her horse and rushed back to Prince Xiang's Mansion to find the urn of Jiang Dalang's brother.
Not found!
Liao Jiu didn't understand what Jiang Lianzhu meant, but seeing Jiang Lianzhu's state, she was too anxious, and he felt something was wrong.
"Mother took the brothers' urns with her? Maybe she went back to her hometown alone?"
Normally, normal families would not place unlucky things like ashes in the main courtyard, but would place them in the side rooms. Jiang Lianzhu did not believe in this, so Jiang Chengshi always asked Jiang Chengshi to keep the ashes of Jiang Dalang and his brothers in her house at all times, and wait for Jiang Chengshi to return home one day to take them back for burial.
Now, I have searched the whole house for it.
Jiang Lianzhu shook her head. "Impossible. She knew she was in this state. She definitely couldn't go back alone. Besides, she was penniless. She didn't take any valuables from the house..."
Speaking of this, Jiang Lianzhu felt more and more uneasy.
"Take me to the Meridian Gate! To where Jiang Dalang and the others collected the bodies!"
Liao Jiu took Jiang Lianzhu there without saying a word.
I feel very heavy.
***
There are usually almost no people in the Meridian Gate when there are no executions taking place.
Empty and cool.
Even in broad daylight, it is much cooler here than anywhere else.
Jiang Cheng was kneeling on the ground, holding an urn in one hand. There were several mouthfuls of blood on her chest, all of which she had spit out. She was dying and looked haggard, but there was a smile on her face, and she seemed very satisfied.
When Jiang Lianzhu rushed over, Jiang Cheng had not yet breathed her last.
"Mother! Why are you here? Mother, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Lianzhu's anxious voice reached Jiang Cheng's ears.
Jiang Cheng slowly woke up, "Zhu'er, you're here!"
"Mom!!" Jiang Lianzhu choked a little.
After being together for such a long time and having feelings for her original body, Jiang Cheng is really someone she can't let go of.
Jiang Cheng smiled, "Zhu'er, I'm sorry. Dalang and Erlang said they were scared, so I wanted to come and accompany them on the journey. Mother has nothing to worry about in this life. Your lives are getting better and better, and mother is relieved. Dalang and Erlang are lost on the road to the underworld, and mother has to show them the way so that they can find a good path in their next life... cough..."
Another mouthful of blood escaped.
His face was as pale as gold paper.
"Mother, you...don't be like this, we still need you..." Jiang Lianzhu couldn't help but feel tears in her eyes.
Before, when Jiang Cheng refused Jiang Lianzhu's acupuncture treatment, she must have had the intention to commit suicide.
Jiang Lianzhu didn't notice.
I wanted to let her calm down, come to her senses, and then treat her slowly.
If acupuncture is performed too quickly, it will cause certain damage to the body.
Jiang Cheng said weakly, "Zhu'er, I'm sorry for you. I've let you down. I'm really suffering in this life, and I want to be free. I might have owed them in my past life. I'll give my life back to them, compensate them... and then I'll feel at peace."
Her body was already at the end of its strength, and she also had a serious heart disease.
If you ask for death, your three souls and seven spirits will be incomplete.
Jiang Lianzhu said stubbornly, "Mother, it's over, why bother..."
