The answer is of course no.
At this moment, all the people from the Jiang family who worked for Jiang Yuanlang were here.
Something had happened to Jiang Shang, and he was on his way to the border, seriously injured, so he had no time to take care of him.
Luo was a heartless person. She gave birth to four children, but she only had eyes for that venomous girl who was not her biological child. She was really weird.
As for relatives? Friends?
Forget it, the matter is still the same. A lawsuit is a serious matter, let alone people, even ghosts cannot be trusted!
After appeasing the old lady, Jiang Ying went out with his two brothers, leaving Jiang Yuanyi in charge of dealing with the old duck. Businessmen can be summed up in two words: greedy.
A box was handed to Jiang Yuanyi, "Be polite first, then use force. If she refuses to change her mind, then we can talk about it later."
Jiang Yuanyi curiously opened the box, and after seeing that it was full of brand new banknotes, his hands shook more violently than that of the 100-year-old man as he closed the box.
Her lips trembled, "Where did you get so much money?"
Jiang Ying said indifferently, "Is it a lot? This is only one tenth. After all, the mansion held a ancestral banquet for me some time ago, and I received a lot of gifts from various families, especially from Prince Qin and my grandmother. I also received a lot of gifts from the emperor, the queen, and the concubines. Many of them were unusable, so I exchanged them for banknotes."
Upon hearing this, not only Jiang Yuanyi opened his mouth in a devilish manner, but even Jiang Yuanchen, who rarely showed his emotions, closed his eyes and didn't know what to say.
In fact, our sister is not only brave, but also wild.
Others treated the gifts from the palace as treasures, but she just sold them.
He was not afraid of being investigated by the palace.
Of course, unless someone reports it and the palace really dislikes you, they will only care about it.
But after all, it's not good to be so blatant, right?
Jiang Ying didn't care. She wanted to spend the money wisely. If it wasn't enough, she still had two betrothal gifts.
"Brother, remember, any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem. The only thing you have to watch out for is the old man playing tricks, such as taking our money and then coming back to bite us back."
So after thinking about it, she decided to take a bottle of poison and give it to Jiang Yuanyi, asking him to take it if Lao Nian agreed to change his mind.
Even the most cunning person can be controlled if faced with a life-threatening threat.
She went to Shuntian Prefecture with Jiang Yuanchen.
At this time, the imperial edict that Yan Zhuo was named King of Mo just reached the capital.
This made it much easier for Jiang Ying to handle things with the title of Princess Mo. At least when the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, Zheng Yao, heard the message, he invited her in and even made her some tea. "Madam Jiang, are you here for Brother Mo's business?"
Jiang Ying took a sip of tea and slowly said, "Since the prefect has spoken frankly, I will not beat around the bush. Yes, I am here for my third brother. He has not committed murder. I hope the prefect will handle the case impartially and clear my third brother's name."
Zheng Yao smiled bitterly, "Madam Jiang, you don't know that this case has all the evidence, even your third brother himself almost admits it. Besides, the other party is Censor Sun's family after all, and Censor Sun was very respectable in front of the late emperor. I am not completely disregarding Censor Sun's face, and the laws of this country are there, there is no way to change it."
The more Jiang Ying listened to this, the bigger the smile on his face became.
He secretly cursed Zheng Yao, this old fox, for being so slick!
There are many twists and turns in this statement. First, the evidence is solid, then he says he "almost" admits it. First, it is not easy to offend the Sun family, then he says he has to give face to "Sun Lao Yushi". In summary, only the last one is worth taking seriously.
"Sir Zheng," Jiang Ying said, pushing a famous calligraphy and painting in front of Zheng Yao, "It's just a little gift. Don't... Sir Zheng, please don't refuse. I'm not asking you to release my third brother right away. My third brother is a delicate and tender boy who has been raised in a noble family. Please take care of him a little bit."
Hearing this, Zheng Yao looked at the priceless calligraphy and painting and relaxed a little. "Of course, even if Madam Jiang didn't say it, I would still give Jiang Sanlang special care. After all, he is still the brother-in-law of the Mo Palace, right?"
Jiang Ying smiled but said nothing, and went straight to the point: "Sir Zheng, I have another favor to ask of you. I would like to work with the coroner of the government office to conduct a second autopsy on Sun Bo."
"puff--"
Almost as soon as Jiang Ying finished speaking, Zheng Yao took a mouthful of tea and spat it out.
His eyes widened like bells. "What? You want an autopsy?"
"Is it not possible? Is it stipulated in our country's laws that each body of the deceased should be autopsied once, or is it stipulated that women should not perform autopsies?"
Of course not!
Then, I watched Zheng Yao changing his face like in Sichuan Opera, his face turned pale and red.
After a while, a word came out from his lips. "You...you want to perform an autopsy. Does the Mowang Palace know about this? Do you know what an autopsy is going to do?"
The first thing is to check from head to toe to see if there are any external injuries.
Naked, completely naked, without even a piece of cloth to cover herself!
Even the key points have to be looked at, just like some women who died unjustly, the coroner will check whether they were violated before they died.
Thinking of this, Zheng Yao couldn't help swallowing hard. He felt that if King Mo knew about this, he would be very confused.
Jiang Ying nodded, calm as a chicken, "I know, very well. As for whether King Mo knows, I guess he should know by now. If Lord Zheng thinks that he must inform King Mo before making a decision, that's fine, I'll take Lord Zheng there now."
Zheng Yao, "..."
What are you going to do? You just want her to know the difficulty and give up!
But when I looked up, I saw that they didn't seem to be backing down at all. It would be good if they didn't go any further!
He just laughed dryly and used a makeshift plan, "Well... it's definitely not possible today. How about this, in three days, I will have the coroner make preparations and perform another autopsy for you. Do you think it's feasible?"
Zheng Yao probably thought that she just wanted to watch the fun.
Jiang Ying was too lazy to explain the misunderstanding and simply stood up. "Okay, I will come with my second brother at noon three days later. Oh, Lord Zheng, you don't need to prepare tea that day. After all, your tea... is really too bitter and unpalatable!"
The dignified prefect of Shuntian Prefecture drinks tea not as good as Hanako's. I wonder if he has spent all his tea collecting famous paintings and calligraphy that are not suitable for eating or drinking.
After leaving Shuntianfu, Jiang Ying did not feel relaxed, but felt even more depressed.
Jiang Yuanchen saw it and deliberately led her to talk, "Sister, in your opinion, Lord Zheng really agreed to our retest, not just to deal with us, right?"
"I don't know, but you said three days later, so I must perform an autopsy in three days! Don't worry, I will find a way to make you dare not disobey."
Don't forget, she still has a gold medal of immunity from death from the late emperor!
This trick is absolutely effective for Zheng Yao, an old fox who is good at protecting himself.
Patting Jiang Yuanchen on the shoulder, Jiang Ying said in a relaxed tone, "Let's go, come with me to Feiyu's house, while we wait for good news from the eldest brother, and at the same time, the Qi Rens should also close the net. Third brother is here, Zheng Yao will take care of him, and nothing will happen for the time being."
"You mean..." Jiang Yuanchen looks like a bookworm, but his reaction is actually not slow at all.
Jiang Ying nodded and smiled, "That's right, Zheng Yao said that Third Brother 'almost' admitted his guilt, which means he hasn't pleaded guilty yet. At most, he is a suspect, not a criminal.
"Secondly, 'Old Censor Sun' is actually reminding us that the Sun family was powerful in the past, but is no longer as powerful as before. Moreover, the new emperor certainly does not like Sun Bo's father, Sun Dingji, otherwise such a big case would have been transferred to the Ministry of Justice for trial..."
Jiang Yuanchen slowly raised his eyes, his gaze like the morning light, "Sister, you are the smartest woman I have ever seen."
"Haha, same to you." Jiang Ying touched his nose guiltily, and then his pace became much faster with awkwardness.
The latter watched her with a look of admiration and adoration until she walked a dozen steps forward before quickly catching up with her.
"Sister, one last question. When you tell the guards to close the net, what net are they closing in?"
Jiang Ying didn't even turn his head, got into the carriage parked at the entrance of the alley, and opened the curtain, "Don't ask, just go to Feiyu's house and you will know it naturally."
At the same time, the Empress Dowager's Shoukang Palace.
Two bowls of ice jelly were brought over from the Queen, and the other bowls without ice were given by the Queen Mother to the palace maids.
After more than half an hour, the other bowl of ice was almost melted. When she saw it, she remembered to ask, "How is it? Is there any problem?"
