Chapter 373 Not Saved
Tang Mansion.
When Tang Wanru arrived, the Tang Mansion was in chaos.
Li Bo stood there, straight and upright, instructing his men to clear out the items in the Tang Mansion and seal it off.
Seeing that all the things in the mansion were moved away, Tang Jiang's heart was bleeding. He wanted to stop it, but he was powerless. Finally, with tears in his eyes, he knelt in front of Eunuch Li and said, "Eunuch, I am innocent. I am not from the Marquis's Mansion. I am really innocent. Please let me see the emperor. Please."
"You are wronged?" Li Bo was acting in accordance with the imperial decree today, so he was naturally very arrogant. He said, "Tang Jiang, you offered your own daughter as a gift at the birthday banquet of Zhou Wucai in the Yongning Marquis' Mansion. This shows your sincerity to the Marquis' Mansion. If you are wronged, then no one in this capital city is innocent."
"That was because I was confused." Tang Jiang regretted his behavior very much. He cried very pitifully. He raised his head and said, "But I have repented."
Tang Jiang said, "Eunuch, I severed my father-daughter relationship with Tang Yue'er some time ago. At that time, the Marquis's Mansion had not yet been convicted? Doesn't this mean that I repented in time? Can't you forgive me?"
After hearing this, Li Bo finally understood why something happened in the Marquis' Mansion and why Tang Jiang was among the first group of people to be dealt with.
He is really not as smart and clever as his daughter Tang Wanru.
Now that it has come to this, the important thing is whether he has repented in time?
What’s important now is that there’s no one behind him.
He has no special abilities in his daily life, and his presence is very weak in front of and behind people. He is not liked by the emperor. Now he does not plan for himself in advance, so he deserves the fate he has today.
"What's the point of severing the relationship?" Li Bo said, "After all, you sent the person away, Master Tang. There is no return for this matter."
Tang Jiang was still shouting unwillingly: "Eunuch Li, please give me another chance, let me explain to the emperor, I can explain it clearly." As he said that, he rushed forward to pull Li Bo.
Li Bo was also a little annoyed. He had someone pull him away and said with his head held high: "Tang Jiang colluded with Yongning Marquis' Mansion and is suspected of being involved in many cases involving the Marquis' Mansion. Now, in compliance with the emperor's order, the Tang Mansion will be sealed and Tang Jiang will be imprisoned. Wait until the matter is clear before waiting for his punishment." He waved his whisk and said coldly: "Come here, arrest him."
Although Tang Jiang was not convicted, the Tang Mansion was definitely gone.
Tang Jiang was not willing to agree.
He just sent Tang Yue'er over there, but he really didn't do anything.
So Tang Jiang struggled and said, "I didn't collude with the Marquis' Mansion. Don't arrest me. I really didn't!"
At this moment, a voice came from behind Li Bo: "Eunuch Li, what happened?"
Li Bo looked back and saw that the person coming was Tang Wanru.
"Greetings, Seventh Concubine!" Li Bo bowed his head.
When Tang Jiang saw Tang Wanru coming, he rushed over to her as if he had seen a life-saving straw and said, "Wanru, Wanru, you are here, please save me! Please save your father, and tell them not to seal off my mansion, and don't take me away!" Tang Jiang had been through so much in this period of time. He was already greatly shocked and lost a lot of weight. Now he knew that he had nothing, and he was in a very miserable state.
Tang Wanru looked down at Tang Jiang, then asked Li Bo, "Eunuch Li, what mistake did my father make?"
Li Bo knew that this was a serious crime in front of Tang Jiang, but it was hard to say whether it was a serious crime in front of Tang Wanru.
After all, it was just a matter of them saying a few words in front of the emperor.
So Li Bo said, "Replying to the Imperial Concubine, the Yongning Marquisate has been exiled, and the Emperor is now clearing out the people associated with the Marquisate. After all, Lord Tang presented a gift to the Marquisate, so he was implicated."
Tang Wanru was stunned when she heard this, but Tang Jiang continued to look at her with hope and said, "Wanru, please save me. Apart from that one gift, I have nothing to do with other matters in the Marquis' Mansion, Wanru."
"Dad!" Tang Wanru saw the point at once. Isn't this the consequence of not having a backer? There are also people who have made gifts and nothing happened. So she asked in a low voice: "Didn't I tell you at the beginning to go find my mother and let the general's mansion protect you? Why didn't you listen?"
Hearing this, Tang Jiang was heartbroken. He said with a sad face, "It's not that I didn't ask her for help, it's that she didn't want to help me. She divorced me!"
When Tang Wanru heard this, she said helplessly, "Dad, tell me, how can you divorce mother at this time?"
"I don't want to either." Tang Jiang said, "It's just that the General's Mansion is so powerful that I can't keep her!"
Tang Wanru shook her head. She glanced at the messy yard again and found that Liu was not there, so she asked, "Where is Auntie? Where did she go?"
When this was mentioned, Tang Jiang felt even more upset. He almost beat his chest and stamped his feet. He said angrily, "She stole everything in the house and ran off with a man!"
Tang Wanru almost gasped, she said helplessly: "Dad, how did you become like this?!"
Tang Jiang burst into tears after hearing what he said!
Yes, how could he be so incompetent? The general's mansion was unreliable, and the things in the house were stolen by a concubine.
He is such a waste.
Thinking of this, he started slapping himself in the face. In just a few slaps, his face turned red.
"Dad, what are you doing?" Seeing him mutilating himself like this, Tang Wanru acted as if she couldn't bear it.
"Wanru!" Tang Jiang bent his legs and knelt directly in front of Tang Wanru. At this point, he had no other way to go. He knew that except Tang Wanru, no one else could save him.
So he knelt there and said, "Wanru, it was your father who was incompetent and absurd. He didn't know how high the heavens were and took that concubine in, and ended up driving your mother away. Dad knows that Dad has brought himself to this point now because of his own actions."
"But Wanru!" Tang Jiang looked at her with tears in his eyes and said, "Dad knows he was wrong now. Please, for the sake of raising you, you must not ignore me. You must save me! If you don't save me, no one else can save me, Wanru."
Tang Wanru looked at him coldly.
She recalled in her mind the proud look on his face when he first brought Liu Panchun into the mansion.
She also remembered how he tricked her into coming in and then sent her out in his previous life.
save him?
Then hasn’t she come here in vain?
Thinking of this, Tang Wanru showed a trace of embarrassment on her face. She said, "Dad, it's not that I don't want to save you. Didn't I tell you last time? Yan Li was just recognized by the emperor. He really doesn't have the ability to help."
Hearing this, Tang Jiang said excitedly: "Wanru, it's okay. As long as you nod and protect me, I can definitely protect you, right, Eunuch Li?" As he said that, he looked at Li Bo.
Li Bo was such a smart man. He glanced at Tang Jiang, then looked up at Tang Wanru and said, "Seventh Princess, to be honest with you, the Seventh Prince recently captured the leader of the Shanrong, and he has indeed won the favor of the emperor."
Although he didn't point it out, the implication of his words was obvious, which meant that Tang Wanru had the ability to save him. Tang Jiang was so excited that he almost jumped up. He immediately grabbed Tang Wanru's sleeve and said, "Wanru, you heard it, you can save me. The Seventh Prince has made great contributions recently! As long as you go, you can save me! Wanru."
Tang Wanru looked down at Tang Jiang, and she saw anticipation in his pupils.
Tang Wanru looked at him with concern at first, but then her face suddenly darkened and became cold and distant.
She uttered three words unceremoniously: "I. Will. Not. Go."
Tang Jiang froze there, holding Tang Wanru's hand.
He raised his head and looked at Tang Wanru in surprise.
