Chapter 140 Defeated and Besieged
Looking at the girl's appearance, Jin Chuan knew that she must have already fallen in love with the general. If they knew today, they should cherish each other so as not to leave any regrets. In the face of life and death, there is nothing that cannot be let go.

Jin Chuan let out a long sigh, and was about to say something, but the words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't utter a single word.

Su Mei's grief was unbearable for a moment, but she held back her tears and said to Nanny Shang, "Let's go to Jiangfu."

She didn't believe this was true at all. Jiang Ling had never been defeated in battle. She didn't believe that he was defeated and surrounded. She wanted to find out the cause and effect. There is bound to be news coming.

The more at this time, the less she can panic.

Mrs. Jiang experienced the pain of losing her husband and son, and news of Jiang Ling's death in battle spread, so she didn't know if she could hold on.

Su Mei hurried to Changwu Courtyard in a carriage, and went straight to Jiang Mansion. After Mrs. Jiang heard the news of Jiang Ling's defeat, she fell ill on the bed. At this moment, she was lying on the bed with a forehead wipe on her head, moaning constantly.

Li Langzhong is treating her, and Xing Ruyan is waiting on her side. Seeing Su Mei coming, Mrs. Jiang supported her body and stood up. Xing Ruyan quickly helped her sit on the bed. Mrs. Jiang was hit, and her voice was old and weak: "What are you doing?" Here you go, sit down and talk."

Her only grandson also died on the battlefield. If it wasn't for the child in Su Mei's womb, the Jiang family would have no descendants. Mrs. Jiang looked at Su Mei with more gentle and loving eyes.

Su Mei comforted from the side: "It's important for the old lady to take care of her health."

"It's hard for you to come to see me at this time." Mrs. Jiang sighed.

Seeing that Su Mei was hesitant to speak, she said to Xing Ruyan at the side: "My dear boy, go back and rest for a while, I will have a word with Su Mei."

After Xing Ruyan left, Su Mei asked anxiously: "Has the old lady ever sent someone to inquire, is it true that the general was besieged?"

Mrs. Jiang also didn't want to believe that Sun'er's defeat and siege were real, but the people she sent had already inquired about it. The 40 Uighur troops were approaching the city. In order to save Shuozhou City, Jiang Ling could only He personally led [-] troops out of the city overnight and set up an ambush in the Qishan area, but unexpectedly his plot was seen through by Daxian Kingdom, the army was defeated and surrounded, and his life and death were unknown.

If the 30 army is defeated and besieged, there will only be one result, be captured or die in battle. Jiang Ling is the great general of Dayong Kingdom and the god who protects the people of Dayong. Given this possibility, even if he died in battle, he would rather die than surrender.

Su Mei's face became paler and paler, she started to cry silently, then slowly clutched her chest, the tears continued, and finally broke down and cried.

If it wasn't for Jin Chuan's support, her pale face and trembling body might fall down at any time.

She thought about countless options for Jiang Ling, but her own guesses were blocked by another voice, and Jiang Ling had no chance of surviving.

Two voices in her mind were shouting, yelling, even arguing, her heart ached and her headache was splitting.

At this moment, Jiang's mansion broke into a group of imperial guards, and soon these guards rushed in, guarding the three exits of Jiang's mansion, and the servants of the mansion rushed to report, "Old lady, it's not good! The imperial guards Our mansion has been surrounded, the west gate, east gate, and even the south corner gate are heavily guarded."

Mrs. Jiang shouted anxiously: "This is the General's Mansion, who dares to be so bold!"

Mrs. Jiang said to the old mother behind her: "Help me up quickly, and I'll see who the hell this is who dares to come to Jiang's mansion to show his prestige!"

Su Mei frowned, and felt that something was wrong, she stepped forward to persuade: "Madam, the only ones who dare to lead troops to surround Jiang's residence are the people in the palace."

Suffering from a sudden illness today, he has been in a coma, and the only one who dares to lead troops to surround the mansion is the Crown Prince of the East Palace, who is about to proclaim himself emperor.

Mrs. Jiang felt chills in her heart. Only Su Mei supported her, so she could stand firm and not fall down on the spot.

Su Mei persuaded from the side: "The Jiang family is now counting on the old lady. The old lady must protect herself. Nothing is more important than her own life."

Mrs. Jiang nodded her head, weeping silently, "Even if I fight this old bone, I will definitely keep our Jiang family's flesh and blood, and I will keep you too!"

Shen Yinger walked in slowly with Lin Sujin's arm. Lin Sujin was wearing a gorgeous dress with countless pearls and gemstones embroidered on it. It was extremely gorgeous. I haven't seen her in just a month. Lin Sujin's changes in clothing and temperament are endless. Just a little bit, just like a favorite concubine who is the crown of the harem.

A group of court ladies and eunuchs followed her mightily, and there were more than a dozen imperial guards guarding her, which was really majestic.

Lin Sujin raised her eyes lightly, her gaze swept over Mrs. Jiang, and her gaze stayed on Su Mei. The court lady behind her stepped forward courteously, and spread a cushion on the mahogany carved chair. Lin Sujin sat down gracefully, and slowly lifted her Eyes said: "Miss Su, long time no see!"

Lin Sujin is not a good person, she must be doing something bad today.

Su Mei just nodded and smiled, and said blessedly: "Greetings, Mrs. Jin!" The third brother was murdered by her, but she unexpectedly transformed into the emperor's favorite concubine.

"Since it's a reunion of old friends, let's invite Miss Su into the palace to talk about it! The imperial guards in Yexing go to Changwu Courtyard to invite Miss Su again." She sneered very lightly.

Mrs. Jiang quickly stood up and defended: "Aren't you here for the Jiang family? She is not from the Jiang family. If you want to arrest me, this old lady."

Lin Sujin snorted lightly and said, "Don't worry, none of the people sitting today will be left behind."

Lin Sujin told the imperial guards behind her: "Come here, bring them all into Ruixin Palace, so that they can be taken care of.

If Jiang Ling was still there, she would never have dared to do anything to the Jiang family or Su Mei, but Jiang Ling was dead, so she wanted to see who else would protect her.

At this moment, Lin Sujin felt the pleasure and joy of having her revenge avenged.

After Lin Liangchen got the news that Lin Sujin had brought the imperial guards to Jiangfu and brought the Jiang family and Su Mei into the palace, he planned to enter the palace to save people.

At this time the palace gate had already been keyed, he was a foreign minister, he was not allowed to enter the palace without an edict, he was blocked outside the palace gate, he was so anxious that he had to rush to the East Palace to find the prince to ask for the edict.

Murong Jin has been getting headaches from the quarrels of the cabinet ministers these few days. Seeing Lin Liangchen coming, she was very displeased and wanted someone to send him away without even thinking about it. However, Lin Liangchen insisted on kneeling outside the East Palace and asked to enter the palace together will.

Since that day when he took Su Mei to escape and fell from the carriage, he suffered from leg disease. His leg disease has not healed. If he had been kneeling outside the door, he would be disabled. He insisted on kneeling outside the hall When he was willing to leave, Murong Jin got restless, got up from the bed, and shouted angrily: "It's so late, why does he have to see Gu!"

If it wasn't for the fact that Lin Liangchen was Lin Sujin's brother-in-law, he just wanted to drag him down and beat him with thirty big boards to relieve his anger.

He kneaded his brows, feeling irritable, "Let him in."

Lin Liangchen, an internal official next to the crown prince, came in to have an audience. Lin Liangchen knelt in front of the crown prince and begged, "Your Majesty, I implore you to give me a decree to allow you to enter the palace."

"It's so late, why do you, a foreign minister, insist on entering the palace? Let's talk about it tomorrow, if there is nothing else, then step back."

Lin Liangchen did not leave, but pleaded again with his forehead touching the ground: "I have something urgent to meet Jin Guiren, please give me an order to enter the palace together!"

He also heard the rumors in the palace. Ever since Lin Sujin entered the palace, she might not be the righteous daughter Lin Sujin who was in the Lin family. If she resorted to unscrupulous methods, something would happen to Su Mei in the palace sooner or later.
