Qi Ren glanced at Jiang Yuanchen. It wasn't that he didn't trust him, but except for Sister Ying, the other members of the Jiang family didn't know that Jiang Shang had been assassinated.
After thinking it over, he didn't mention it, saying only, "Kunan has kidnapped her and left her in the palace's woodshed. We're planning to interrogate her tonight. If she cooperates, that's fine. If not, we can just let her meet Nian Nu in the palace dungeon."
With the imperial decree, the Prince's Mansion was renamed "Prince Mo's Mansion" and the plaque was hung.
Qi Ren and Kunan were both shocked and curious, wondering how Jiang Ying did it!
Unfortunately, even after they told the prince this exciting good news, he still did not wake up.
Now that the person has been caught, we can just take it one step at a time.
Jiang Ying wasn't too anxious, but instead focused on another matter. "What about Deng Er? He's closely related to my third brother's case. If I'm not mistaken, his appearance at Tianxiang Tower that day wasn't a coincidence. He was deliberately waiting for my third brother there, with the intention of taking him to the private room next door where Sun Bo was having dinner with his friends. As a result, my third brother happened to hear Sun Bo's insults, and with his personality, he naturally couldn't tolerate it."
"Oh! On the one hand, he plotted against my third brother, and on the other hand, he helped the Sun family to perjure himself, saying that it was my third brother who beat Sun Bo to death. I am really curious about him and can't wait to meet him to see if he has the courage to do so!"
Qi Ren could tell that Sister Ying was really angry.
But he had no other choice. He said with a blush, "I'm sorry I couldn't bring Deng Er back with me. Because, as a witness in the case of Mr. Jiang San, that old fox Sun Dingji asked Shuntian Prefecture to send troops to protect him!"
Kunan's brothers of the Demonic Guards were naturally not afraid of the soldiers of Shuntian Prefecture.
But if we make a big fuss and snatch Deng Er away at this time, outsiders will subconsciously blame the Duke's Mansion, which would be bad.
Jiang Ying quickly considered this as Qi Ren finished speaking, frowning and nodding, "I understand, it's not your fault. On the contrary, if that's the case, then my eldest brother's search for another witness, the brothel owner, won't go smoothly."
The Sun family was prepared for this move by the Jiang family, so they blocked all the roads in advance.
However, at this moment, Jiang Ying's complexion miraculously brightened up again, leaving Qi Ren confused. "Why, Sister Ying, are you still happy even though things are not going well?"
"You don't understand." Jiang Yuanchen looked silly, glanced at Qi Ren and said rudely.
Qi Ren raised his chin, unconvinced, "Then I don't know, but you do?"
Jiang Yuanchen, "I know."
After saying the two words "clever and decisive", he fell silent again, which made Qi Ren very angry.
The scabbard in his hand was almost deformed by him. "Hey, Mr. Jiang, don't say only half of what you say. It's very annoying, okay?"
Jiang Yuanchen glanced at his sister and saw that she had no intention of stopping him, so he spoke again, "According to Guard Qi's investigation, are there any intelligent people in the Sun family?"
Qi Ren was completely confused. What did whether there were smart people in the Sun family have to do with Sister Ying's mood?
But for Jiang Ying's sake, he still answered politely, "Of course he's not that smart. If he were, how could he have fallen into such a state? Besides, Sun Dingji always contradicts the emperor, constantly talking about the rules of our ancestors. The emperor is already fed up with him. For such an idiot, I think it would be a good thing if the son he gave birth to died, so as not to delay the next generation!"
This is a bit too much...
Jiang Yuanchen's mouth twitched. He looked up and saw his sister also took a sip of tea.
Shaking his head, he said, "So, relying on his brain, Censor Sun would never have thought of asking Shuntian Prefecture to protect the witness. This means that the person behind the child theft is still helping the Sun family. Originally, my sister asked you to arrest Deng Er so that we could catch the mastermind behind the incident and prevent him from slipping away like a loach. Now that he wants to use Sun Bo's death to frame my third brother, we can pretend to be fish and take his bait."
"Don't forget, even fishermen may be unlucky enough to fall into the water and be eaten by fish."
These words made Qi Ren suddenly enlightened.
Jiang Ying also looked at his second brother with bright eyes, feeling relieved. His second brother had grown a lot after experiencing more things.
Look at this analysis, it is well-reasoned and very convincing.
Just as they expected, Jiang Yuanyi returned empty-handed soon after. "Sister, big brother is incompetent. He can't even meet that old procuress."
Therefore, even if you have enormous wealth, you cannot give it away!
Jiang Ying stood up, walked over, and smiled as she handed Jiang Yuanyi a cup of tea. "It doesn't matter if we can't meet her, it doesn't matter. It just happened. I was a little regretful just now. What a piece of shit accomplice, and we still rushed to give her so much money? It's a joke. We would rather give this money to a beggar than to her!"
Jiang Yuanyi was feeling rather discouraged because he hadn't done anything good. Upon hearing this, he raised his head and said, "Ah, really! Sister, you don't blame me for not doing anything good?"
"What's strange? Not strange, not strange." Jiang Ying waved his hand and gave Qi Ren a look, "If things don't get better in the east, they will get better in the west. Let's go and see Feng Zhu and see if her bones are as hard as Nian Nu's."
*
Perhaps because of the preconceived notion of how difficult Nian Nu was, everyone thought it would be difficult to pry Feng Zhu open her mouth. But when they actually did it, wow, it was much easier!
She directly confessed the name of the person who made her do it - Situ Fang.
There was nothing new about it. Situ Fang had saved her when she was in trouble, so in order to repay her kindness, she became Situ Fang's spy and hid in Tianxiang Tower for four or five years. She had originally only delivered some trivial news from the capital, until a few days ago, when Situ Fang sent her a message, asking her to work together with Deng Er to steal Xiao Yanzhi and hand him over to Nian Nu.
