Song Anning had been to the Embroidery Department before, so she was relatively familiar with the layout of the front hall.
Therefore, even without anyone to guide her, she quickly reached the inner hall.
In the hall, Pei Qingyan was already waiting there.
He was wearing a dark purple brocade robe. The cuffs and hem of the cotton robe were embroidered with thin dark patterns with gold thread. He looked dignified and luxurious, but he didn't look like an embroidered commander who walked in the darkness all year round. Which family's rich son?
He was reading a brochure at his desk without looking up.
But because he heard her footsteps, he said calmly: "If Miss Song is here for Mr. Jiang, then Pei can tell you that the Embroidery Department will not let her go now. Miss Song, please go back."
Song Anning paused slightly.
She looked at the man in front of her, and she didn't know why, but she always felt that he looked familiar.
Probably to match today's clothes, he did not wear a black mask today, but a dark purple embossed mask of the same color as his clothes. Song Anning couldn't understand the embossed patterns on it, but she thought it looked very nice, especially when matched with his silhouette. , which weakens the scary feeling and makes it somewhat pleasing to the eye, just like looking at a piece of art.
She whispered: "I know."
Pei Qingyan made a move.
He looked at her in surprise.
When he raised his head, his pair of pitch-black eyes were reflected in the warm morning light, which weakened the indifference brought by the mask and made him look a little softer.
"you know?"
"Yes."
Song Anning smiled and said, "I'm just a daughter-in-law. If something like this happens to my father-in-law, I should come and have a look. Mr. Pei, can I see him?"
Pei Qingyan thought about it but didn't stop him.
"can."
Song Anning saluted him gratefully.
Pei Qingyan directly asked someone to take her to the prison.
Song Anning came here empty-handed today and didn't bring anything. She really didn't look like a prison visitor.
But her original intention was not to visit Jiang Rongsheng, so she didn't pay attention to those details. On the contrary, Jiang Rongsheng's eyes lit up when he saw her. Although his body was in pain from being tortured, he still crawled over excitedly. .
"Song Anning? Why is it you? Why are you here alone? Where is your mother-in-law? Where is your mother?"
Song Anning looked at him calmly.
After not seeing him for two days, Jiang Rongsheng seemed like a different person.
He was only wearing a white tunic, and the clothes were all covered in blood and some dark filth. He didn't know what it was. His hair was disheveled, and his face was stained with something similar to blood, with bruises and bruises. , looking particularly embarrassed.
He looked at Song Anning with hope.
Song Anning said softly: "The eldest lady has returned to her parents' home. My grandmother is not in good health. She asked me to visit you on her behalf."
"what?"
Jiang Rongsheng never expected that Mrs. Qin would run back to her parents' home at this juncture.
Ever since he entered the embroidery department's prison, he has been wandering around all day, fearing that he will really die here, and he pays more attention to the people around him. As the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed, and he feels that now is the time to see the true friend. But unexpectedly, not only did Qin find no way to help him, but she also returned to her parents' home?
What does she mean?
Husband and wife are like birds in the same forest. Will they fly separately when disaster strikes?
He, Jiang Rongsheng, is not dead yet!
Jiang Rongsheng was so angry that his lips were trembling.
Song Anning roughly guessed what he was thinking, but she didn't help to explain. Instead, she covered her lips with a handkerchief and said softly: "Don't blame mother-in-law. Maybe mother-in-law doesn't know what you are involved in." Such a serious matter, if I knew about it, I would definitely not ignore you. I just went back to my parents' home to vent my anger on you, and I didn't really intend to abandon you."
Jiang Rongsheng sneered sarcastically.
"She doesn't know? It's been two whole days! As soon as you find out that I'm missing, you will definitely go find her as soon as possible. She will naturally know that something happened to me. She knows that something happened to me, but she still stays at her parents' house without thinking about anything. Way, isn't her meaning obvious enough? Okay! Qin Xian, Qin Xian, I thought you just had a bad temper, but actually you had a good heart. But now it seems that you are clearly heartless. I have prepared a way out and want to escape before the battle."
Jiang Rongsheng said angrily, coughing violently because he was too emotional.
Song Anning quickly said: "Dad, please calm down, my mother-in-law may not be like that..."
"You don't have to say nice things to her anymore." Jiang Rongsheng raised his hand to interrupt her.
Then, he looked at Song Anning nervously and asked, "Have you thought of a way to rescue me?"
Song Anning shook her head.
"not yet."
Jiang Rongsheng was disappointed.
Song Anning comforted her gently, "As far as I know, the matter that my father-in-law is involved in is very complicated, and it actually involves the rebellion of King Yong. Once he is accused of rebellion, it will be difficult to clear his name, and our family will be the same. My father-in-law has the highest official position and you are in jail, what can we do?"
In fact, Jiang Rongsheng understood what Song Anning said.
This was one of the reasons why he felt that life was worse than death while he was in prison.
People are not afraid of the difficulties of the current situation, but what they are afraid of is the lack of hope.
It was precisely because he knew so well what the Jiang family was like that he felt scared.
Because besides himself, he really couldn't think of anyone else who could save him.
When the old man of the Jiang family was still alive, the Jiang family was actually very prosperous. After all, he was an official in the capital, which was very different from the small governor of the country.
If at that time, even if Jiang Rongsheng was imprisoned in the embroidery department's prison, as long as he had never done those things, he would never feel that he would be unjustly killed in prison, because the old man would not allow it.
But now, the old man is gone.
He failed to live up to his expectations. He had only held the official position of magistrate for half his life. All his friends were similar to him, and none of them could speak to the Embroidery Department.
In addition, the old man has been dead for many years, and the connections he once had have gradually faded away due to his passing. It is impossible to ask others for help now.
Jiang Rongsheng was almost desperate.
But at this moment, Song Anning suddenly spoke up.
"Actually, if you want to save your father-in-law, it's not impossible to have a son."
Jiang Rongsheng's eyes lit up.
"What can you do?"
Song Anning said: "In the end, my father-in-law has nothing to do with King Yong, right?"
Jiang Rongsheng nodded repeatedly, "Of course. I don't understand anything else, so why don't I understand this? That's treason! If I'm caught trying to kill the Nine Clan, even for the sake of my ancestor's reputation, I won't be able to do that kind of thing."
Song Anning nodded.
"That's easy to handle, but I don't know if my father-in-law is willing to tell me the truth."
Jiang Rongsheng was stunned.
From Song Anning's expression, he could keenly read something unusual.
He took a step back warily and asked, "What truth do you want to hear?"
Song Anning smiled, "I already know that Jiang Hua is still alive. So whether he went to Beijing or not, is he the son of Marquis Anyuan? Can father-in-law tell me the truth?"
Therefore, even without anyone to guide her, she quickly reached the inner hall.
In the hall, Pei Qingyan was already waiting there.
He was wearing a dark purple brocade robe. The cuffs and hem of the cotton robe were embroidered with thin dark patterns with gold thread. He looked dignified and luxurious, but he didn't look like an embroidered commander who walked in the darkness all year round. Which family's rich son?
