Liu Xier has recovered from that incident. No one knows how she hooked up with a businessman.
Even though the merchant knew all about her affairs, he was still willing to marry her.
This made Liu Xier feel proud and she dared to go out and meet people.
Since she was planning to marry that man, she came to the capital in person to choose jewelry, and happened to meet Jiang Yilang.
Not only did Liu Xier not avoid him, she also stepped forward and mocked him.
Jiang Yilang was already a little dazed, and now he saw the person he hated the most.
She also deliberately said some words to provoke him, and Jiang Yilang really couldn't stand it anymore.
There happened to be a pork stall next to him. He stepped forward, grabbed the big knife, and chopped at Liu Xier.
Everyone around was terrified and no one dared to step forward to stop it. Liu Xier died on the street.
Then Jiang Yilang seemed to react, dropped the knife and ran away.
It wasn't until this morning that the police caught him.
Only then did the people at the Jiang family’s old house realize that such a big thing had happened.
Jiang Yilang often stayed out all night, but they didn't take it seriously. But who knew he would do something stupid.
"Second brother, sister-in-law, it was the Dali Temple that arrested him. Now they are holding him captive and won't let us see him. They also say that killing someone means paying with one's life."
Liu said in a trembling voice, "Lang'er did kill her, but it's not all Lang'er's fault. It was Liu Xi'er who went too far."
"She's the one who wronged us. If she wants to remarry, she can do so. But she insists on angering Lang'er. Who can stand this?"
Liu became more and more excited as she spoke, "Then Liu Xier deserves to die. If I were still here, I would never forgive her."
"Sister-in-law, it's useless to say all this. Lang'er did kill someone, and so many people saw it."
Yu Shulan said truthfully, "It's almost impossible to save Lang'er."
Killing someone means paying with one's life, which is the law of nature. Liu Xier deserves to be killed just because she said something that provoked him.
"How is it impossible? Wei Zhen is a great general. He has made so many military achievements. Can't he use his military achievements to buy Lang'er's life?"
Madam Jiang said as a matter of course.
Hearing this, Yu Shulan's face turned cold again. "Mother, my husband is a general of the Great Yuan Dynasty. It is his duty to go into battle and kill the enemy. As for military merit, the emperor always rewards him. You asked him to use his past military merit to save Lang'er. Do you want him to use his life in exchange for Lang'er's?"
"Why would you want to take his life in exchange for military merit?"
"To threaten the Emperor, it's not just his life that's at stake. It's the lives of all of our second family."
Yu Shulan said sternly that to put it nicely it was an exchange, but to put it bluntly it was a threat to the emperor.
"I... stop trying to bluff me. Do you really think I don't know anything? You just can't bear to give up your current wealth and glory."
Madam Jiang stretched out her hand and pointed at Jiang Weizhen tremblingly, "Second brother, you promised your father to protect this family. Now that Lang'er has suffered such a great hardship, are you going to watch him die without helping him?"
In Old Madam Jiang's heart, the lives of all the people in the second branch of the Jiang family are probably not as important as Jiang Yilang's.
Jiang Weizhen was about to say something when Yu Shulan interrupted him, "Mom, we came here today because we still respect you. Have you forgotten that we have split up, and not only that, we are also no longer related."
"It's clearly written in the severance letter that from now on, we are two families, and we will not interfere with each other, and neither of our fortunes nor misfortunes will be related to the other."
"Why, when our second branch was in trouble, you were busy severing ties and distancing yourself from us. Now that Jiang Yilang is in trouble, you're saying we're family and asking our second branch to do everything in its power to save him. You're really calculating."
"I'm going to say this today: we can't save them, and we won't save them."
"We just can't bear to give up our wealth and glory, but you are willing to do so. What about our third brother? After such a big incident, why did he disappear?"
Su Wu, who was watching a play, suddenly heard her husband being mentioned and said with some embarrassment.
"He was busy with official duties and was called away by the Minister early in the morning. He didn't know about this yet."
"Besides, he is just a mere minister and can't help."
In fact, after she heard about Jiang Yilang's situation, she drove Jiang Weiyan away and told him not to get involved in the matter.
Hearing this lame excuse, Yu Shulan sneered, turned around and said, "Your family can't help, and we can't help either, so we'll go back first."
"Stop?" Old Madam Jiang shouted hurriedly, "Jiang Weizhen, no matter what I have done, I am your mother who gave birth to you and raised you. How dare you abandon me?"
"It's not me who abandoned you, it's my mother who abandoned me." Jiang Weizhen replied helplessly.
"I've taken care of you enough over the years. I don't think I've failed to live up to my father's trust. You were the ones who abandoned me first. And if Mom had any problems, I wouldn't ignore them, but I can't control the affairs of my eldest brother's family."
【Daddy is right.】
Jiang Qingwan secretly gave a thumbs up to his parents.
Her grandmother was really confused. If she showed weakness and begged for mercy, her parents might be more sympathetic and try to help her.
But even at this time, he still used a commanding and threatening tone.
Still think they are as weak and vulnerable as before.
Seeing that Jiang Weizhen was about to take his wife and daughter away, Liu became anxious and knelt down on the ground.
"Second brother, sister-in-law, please don't leave. I beg you, please, I was wrong before. I'm sorry for you. I'm narrow-minded and greedy. It's all my fault."
"Please save Lang'er. If you don't help him, he will really die."
"Second brother, it is the eldest brother who is sorry for you."
Jiang Weiren also came over and wanted to kneel down, but Jiang Weizhen quickly helped him up.
"Brother, don't do this."
"Brother, I know you're in a difficult situation, but we really have no other choice." Jiang Weiren's eyes were red. He only had Jiang Yilang as his son, and he couldn't just watch him die.
"Brother, sister-in-law, killing someone means paying with your life. This is the law, and there is nothing we can do."
Yu Shulan pulled Liu up and said, "Instead of begging us here, why don't you go find your eldest brother and his wife? If they don't pursue the matter, there might still be room for maneuver."
"I went, but they also said they didn't want anything but Lang'er's life."
Liu burst into tears. She had begged for everything she could, but now her mother and elder brother refused to see her.
The sister-in-law insisted that Lang'er pay with his life, and she really had no other choice.
"If they insist on suing, there's nothing we can do."
How could they interfere with the Dali Temple's case? "However, I can take you to the Dali Temple to meet Lang'er."
"Okay, then take me there quickly, at least to meet him."
She hasn't seen her son since the incident. People say Dali Temple is hell, and she doesn't know what kind of torture her son has been in.
Yu Sanniang brought them to the Dali Temple. Ning Yuan did not stop them and let them in directly.
