After his threats and intimidation, Sun Ruoyan finally didn't dare to stay any longer. Together with several servants, she helped Old Madam Sun leave in disgrace.
As soon as people from the yamen showed up, the common people no longer dared to join in the fun, and soon the Jiang family's gate became quiet again.
The only ones left were the Xiangcao siblings and Sun Jian, who were brought back by Jiang Yuanchen.
Jiang Yuanchen stepped forward and bowed to Zheng Yao. "Sir Zheng, Deng Er and the madam are witnesses. These three people we found, especially the servant Xiang Zhang, can they also be considered witnesses? Sir Zheng, please help take them to the prison and keep them under guard."
Zheng Yao, “…”
Everyone thought that the prison of his Shuntian Prefecture government office was a hot commodity and tried every possible way to send people in.
However, Zheng Yao also realized that if these three people were to hang around outside, they would definitely be beaten to death by the Sun family.
However, he raised an eyebrow and said, "Second Master Jiang, you are well-versed in the Four Books and Five Classics, and I believe you have also read many books on law. Then you should know that Xiangcao and Xiangzhang are siblings. They are related witnesses, so only one can be considered. As for Sun Jian, his personal grudge with Sun Bo has nothing to do with your third brother's murder case, so he cannot be considered a witness."
There are usually two or more witnesses.
For example, the witnesses when the Sun family sued Jiang Yuanlang for murder were Deng Er and the brothel owner, who had no connection with the family.
In other words, Jiang Yuanchen found the Xiangcao siblings, but his testimony was still not strong enough.
Jiang Yuanchen nodded, indicating that he understood. "Don't worry, sir. We will continue to work hard to find other witnesses and will definitely not let my third brother suffer this unjust accusation."
Jiang Ying walked down the steps. "Yes, Lord Zheng, we are very grateful that you arrived in time to help the Jiang family. However, you promised me that the autopsy would be done in three days. I will be there on time then. I hope you will not break your promise."
Zheng Yao was in mixed mood. He waved his hand and left with his people.
As expected, the woman that the prince likes is really extraordinary. The Sun family didn't bully her even with such a big show just now. The prince's worries are completely unnecessary.
…
After returning home, Jiang Ying took care of his grandmother until she fell asleep. When he came out, he found that his two brothers had not left yet.
"Are you still worried about Third Brother and can't sleep?" She rubbed her sore neck.
Jiang Yuanyi immediately stood up and raised his hands subconsciously wanting to pinch her, but then he felt it was inappropriate, and his hands froze in the air, which was a bit funny.
Jiang Yuanchen's eyes were slightly red, "Sister, you... have worked hard."
Jiang Ying smiled, "You already call me sister. We're family, why should we be polite? But it's really late, let's all go to bed. I don't have anything to do tomorrow. I plan to interrogate that Nian Nu. I've left him alone for so long, it should be enough."
This way, she could conduct another autopsy on Sun Bo the day after tomorrow. She wanted to see why Sun Bo died!
In the end, the two brothers insisted on sending her back to Feiyu's house.
Jiang Ying was a little conflicted. "Well...it's not necessary to go. There are Demon Guards guarding there. Zhizhi and his father are very safe."
Jiang Yuanyi, "Yes, that's why I want to send you there."
Jiang Ying, “?”
Jiang Yuanchen, "Because my sister is now the key figure in the Sun Bo case. No matter what the Sun family has done, in order to prevent the matter from being exposed, isn't the best way to get rid of my sister?"
"So, you are much more dangerous than us." The two brothers looked at each other, their eyes shining brightly, which was a symbol of increased confidence.
It's magical. As long as my sister is around, even the most difficult things will become easy.
Under the torture of morphine addiction, it didn't take much effort for them to successfully pry the name "Situ Fang" out of Nian Nu's mouth.
There is no doubt that he is also Situ Fang's man!
But Jiang Ying always felt that something was missing. After several days of injecting large amounts of morphine, Nian Nu was now completely addicted.
Therefore, when he is suffering the most from his addiction, using morphine to keep him awake and interrogating him should not have a bad effect.
Just as he finished speaking, Nian Nu took advantage of Jiang Yuanyi's inattention, rushed forward and snatched the morphine injection. Her torn hands roughly grasped the needle and stabbed it into his thigh with a "swish".
Jiang Ying couldn't help but frown at the perverted desire and ruthlessness.
With a look, he signaled Kunan to keep watch, and Jiang Ying brought his two brothers back to the surface from the dungeon of Prince Mo's Mansion.
"Sister, tell me, were the people who planned to assassinate my father and steal the child all Situ Fang?"
Jiang Yuanyi coughed, pressing his fist against his chest. "I've already sent a pigeon to my father about Situ Fang, including Feng Zhu's confession. This person, in order to bring down my father, has gone all the way to attack other members of the Jiang family. He's not easy to deal with."
The two were analyzing when they saw Jiang Ying shaking his head.
They all looked puzzled.
Jiang Ying looked up at them, a look of pity in his eyes. "I've actually been wanting to tell you all this for a while now. Father was being hunted by assassins, and he almost escaped by luck, but in the end, his legs were crippled. The reason is that I found an extremely powerful poison in the boots Jiang Yilin gave him."
In order to let her two brothers witness how domineering she was, she took out the poisonous blood that was left from her sleeve, actually from the space.
A small amount was dripped into the pond, and soon, the pond was filled with beautiful carp and lotus flowers. The flowers withered and the fish turned pale...
Jiang Ying murmured, "We should be thankful that the poison was only in his boots. If it had been in his food, Father would have been nothing but a pile of bones!"
"Sister Lin/Linlin? How is this possible!"
"Why did she do this?" Qi Ren ran in from the gate as the two of them exclaimed in unison.
"Sister Ying, something's happened! Jiang Yilin went to the Duke's Mansion!"
Jiang Ying's brows were cold, "What is she going to do?"
"I don't know." Qi Ren truly didn't know. Jiang Yilin was once the daughter of the Duke's mansion. When she said she wanted to visit the old lady, the gatekeepers didn't bother trying to stop her. But Qi Ren added, "But yesterday, when the Sun family was making a scene in front of the Jiang mansion, one of my spies nearby claimed to have seen her, acting suspiciously, accompanied by a tall, dark-looking man."
"Dark shadow?"
"man?"
Jiang Yuanyi and Jiang Yuanlang's lightning-like gazes met rapidly in the air, sparking angry sparks!
