In other words, it is very likely that Sun Bo was severely injured and died of his injuries a few days after returning home!
This was the key reason why the family was at a loss before Jiang Ying arrived.
Lian felt dizzy when she thought of Jiang Yuanlang being imprisoned. "Sister Ying, if Sun Bo was... really beaten to death by your third brother, then... wouldn't he have to pay with his life for his?"
Lang Ge'er was only eighteen years old and would be nineteen next month. How could he die at such a young age?
Besides, my son is still on the front line. If I leave the house to her, if...
How will she explain to her son when he comes back?
When she thought of this, Lian couldn't sit still any longer. She slammed the table and stood up. "I'll go to the palace and beg the emperor. Don't the Sun family want an explanation? I'll give them my life in exchange!"
"Grandmother, what nonsense are you talking about?" Jiang Ying hurriedly supported her and signaled Jiang Yuanyi and Jiang Yuanchen to close the door to prevent anyone from eavesdropping. "Big Brother, Second Brother, do you also think that Sun Bo was really killed by Third Brother by accident?"
Hearing this, the two looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time, "I don't know."
I really don't know. Sun Bo was covered in blood at the time, with a dull look in his eyes, so it was hard to judge what he looked like.
Jiang Ying helped Lian sit down again and poured her a cup of spiritual spring water to calm her nerves. He also poured some for his two brothers and deliberately slowed down his speech. "So, can I understand it this way? That is, when you saw Third Brother stop beating Sun Bo, he was still alive? As for whether he died later, don't worry about it. Just say that he was not dead at that time, so Second Brother asked the madam to send him to the clinic, right?"
The three of them drank the spiritual spring water, their minds feeling confused.
I don’t know what’s the point of Jiang Ying deliberately emphasizing this point.
After a while, Jiang Yuanchen was the quickest to react and nodded vigorously, "Yes! Sister is right, when we saw Sun Bo, he was still alive!"
Jiang Ying looked at Jiang Yuanyi, "Where's my brother? Are you sure?"
Jiang Yuanchen blinked, not in hesitation, but in confusion, "Alive...alive?"
"You can't stutter, you have to be sure, it's alive!"
Jiang Ying heaved a sigh of relief and straightened up, his gaze passing over the window lattice towards the lingering clouds in the sky. "I heard that the Sun family has two main witnesses. One is Deng Er, who invited Third Brother to share the table that day, and the other is the madam of Tianxiang Tower. There are also a number of miscellaneous eyewitnesses.
"As for the physical evidence, there seems to be a wine cup. When the third brother was furious, the wine cup rolled to the ground and he used it as a 'murder weapon'.
"Then there's the autopsy report from Shuntian Prefecture's own coroner.
"It's easy to bribe Deng Er and the madam, but it's also not difficult to overturn them. The only problem is the autopsy report. It looks like I need to see Sun Bo's body myself before I know what to do next."
After examining the body, the real cause of Sun Bo's death became clear.
Was he really dead from his injuries, or was there something else going on? When Jiang Yuanlang was examined in court, the explanations given would be very different depending on the circumstances.
The old man and two children had never expected Jiang Ying to say that she wanted to see the corpse. The old lady frowned and said, "No, you are a girl, why are you going to see a corpse? Don't you know that the coroners in the government office always examine the corpse naked? You—"
Jiang Ying interrupted her, "Grandma, I'm a doctor. In my eyes, there's only illness and no illness, no gender."
"That's what you say, but only some people in the industry believe it. On the contrary, in the eyes of most people, the only thing that matters is avoiding suspicion and distinguishing between men and women!" The old lady refused and spoke earnestly.
Grandson is important, but she cannot sacrifice her granddaughter for the sake of grandson.
"Sister Ying, you are engaged, and he is now the King of Mo. You have been through a lot and are in love with each other. Are you going to make a mistake now?"
Is this what my grandmother is afraid of?
Jiang Ying smiled indifferently, "Grandma, if you were talking about something else, I might still be worried, but if it's about Yan Zhuo, there's no need to worry. He knows who I am and what I like to do. He can't ask me to disregard my family for my reputation.
"In other words, if he could, I wouldn't marry a husband like that!"
Seeing that she couldn't persuade the grandson, the old lady became extremely anxious and glared at her two grandsons, wanting Jiang Yuanyi and Jiang Yuanlang to persuade them as well.
However, Jiang Ying's words instantly blocked the two of them!
She said, "Big Brother, Second Brother, besides me, is there anyone else who can do his best to save Third Brother?"
