The investigators realized that they had found the Jiang family's super giant melon.
No, not only the Jiang family, but also the melons from the original grandfather's family, and the melons from the Li family of the Minister of Justice. After all, the old lady Liu is related to the original grandfather, and the Jiang family is related to the third grandma of the Li family.
In fact, these melons and a lot of evidence were deliberately exposed by Linlang for these people to find out. Otherwise, Mr. Jiang and the fake Mrs. Jiang heard about the discussion about them not long ago, and were afraid of being exposed, so they acted cautiously before. Basically, I am more cautious. If these people want to check, it is still difficult to find anything.
Now that they have almost found out the truth about that year, these people want to expose this matter and let the Ministry of Punishment or Dali Temple investigate the Jiang family.
They also thought about finding Linlang and telling her that your father, your fake mother, and Mrs. Liu conspired to kill your real mother. In addition, your fake mother also wanted to conspire with your illegitimate daughter to kill you, so that Linlang reported the crime as a victim and exposed the matter.
But in the end, they gave up the idea because they considered that Mr. Jiang and the fake Mrs. Jiang were Linlang's parents. It was unrealistic for Linlang to sue her parents. Moreover, doing so would not be a good thing for Linlang. , after all, the natal family has fallen. According to the concept of this era, that is definitely not a good thing; and it is not a good thing for a son to sue his father. People will say that Linlang is disobedient, and they are afraid that Linlang will not be willing to do it.
They were afraid that Linlang would not listen to their advice and sue Mr. Jiang and the fake Mrs. Jiang, so they planned to make a big fuss about the Jiang family's haunting. They had people pretend to be Jiang family servants and tell the truth to the public. The Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple heard about it and intervened to investigate the matter. After all, if there is such a thing, it is impossible for the Third Division not to investigate, and the Jiang family will be able to be dealt with by then. There is no way, although the political opponents of the Jiang family want to I don't want to deal with it, but I don't want to end up personally, so as not to wade through muddy waters and get into trouble.
This person's arrangement is very reasonable.
Soon, the people in the capital first heard that the Jiang family was haunted. The ghost looked exactly like the fake Mrs. Jiang, which surprised the people in the capital. After all, Mrs. Jiang was still alive. How could it be there every day? Mrs. Jiang's female ghost, let her pay for her life?
Then, a few days later, a servant of the Jiang family broke the news, saying that Mr. Jiang and his concubine, the illegitimate daughter of the original grandfather, conspired to kill the real Mrs. Jiang. She is the sister of the original grandmother, so the illegitimate daughter of the original grandfather looks very much like the real Mrs. Jiang, so the illegitimate daughter of the original grandfather pretends to be the fake Mrs. Jiang.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Jiang has turned into a ghost and is here to claim her life.
What’s even more shocking is that the fake Mrs. Jiang gave birth to a daughter with Mr. Jiang before she was replaced. Now she is raising her daughter outside, imitating the daughter of the real Mrs. Jiang and the third grandma of the Li family, the Minister of Punishment. Every move, word and deed, diet and living habits, prepare to kill Grandma Li San just like she did when she killed the real Mrs. Jiang, and let Mr. Jiang's illegitimate daughter take her place, just like her mother replaced Mrs. Jiang. Grandma Li San.
As soon as this news came out, it exploded. After all, this kind of thing is so surprising. People are curious, so soon, under the bombardment of gossip, people quickly began to stare at the Jiang family, thinking See if this is true.
Someone who was hiding behind the wall of Jiang's house at night actually saw Mrs. Jiang's female ghost chasing Mr. Jiang and the fake Mrs. Jiang for their lives - this was naturally Linlang, in order to cooperate with the public opinion in Beijing, she struck again. the result of.
After it was confirmed that Mrs. Jiang was indeed a ghost in the Jiang family, the news about the Jiang family became more and more sensational, and even the palace heard about it.
Because it involved a murder case, the emperor ordered the three departments of Dali Temple, Jingcheng Yamen and the Ministry of Punishment to jointly review the case.
Ordinary people can find out that the Jiang family has this matter - of course, there is also the reason why Linlang provided evidence - the three-division interrogation quickly took control of the Jiang family, and then investigated the matter, coupled with the evidence Linlang secretly provided, how could Maybe it can't be found out.
Soon, the Third Division got to the bottom of what happened that year and reported it to the emperor.
The emperor saw this and couldn't help being furious. After all, Mr. Jiang was a third-rank official before - otherwise the original body would not have been able to marry the Minister of the Ministry of Punishments. He passed the Jinshi examination at a young age and had a promising son - the original body. Before my grandfather became an official, his official position was not low. Such a pillar of the country actually did such a thing, and it spread to all the people in the capital. Doesn't this smear the image of a high official in the imperial court? Looking at the important ministers of the imperial court, one or two of them have caused such a thing. Outsiders would think that all the ministers of the imperial court are like this. How can this be done? The emperor will naturally be angry.
The emperor's verdict soon came down.
Mrs. Liu and the fake Mrs. Jiang were executed in Lingchi for the heinous crime of murdering the third-ranking wife of the imperial court.
Although Mr. Jiang personally killed his first wife, because he was a high-ranking official before, and the husband who killed his wife was generally not sentenced to death in this dynasty, the emperor was furious and felt that he had hurt the court's face and planned to punish him severely, so he decided to deal with him. , so the emperor gave him a decent treatment, only asking for execution after Qiu, but not Lingchi.
It turned out that my grandfather had already retired as an official and did not participate in the murder. However, he knew that Mrs. Liu and others had committed murder, but he hid it and refused to report it, and was exiled to the border.
As for the other members of the original grandfather's family, the emperor was not a foolish emperor. He knew that the person who did bad things was his grandfather and had nothing to do with them, so he did not punish them.
Unlike the Jiang family, the other masters of the Jiang family are basically the children of the fake Mrs. Jiang and Mr. Jiang. These people enjoy a life that does not belong to them, and they have stolen what should be enjoyed by the children of the real Mrs. Jiang. All of them, the emperor immediately killed them all - fortunately there were no particularly young ones, otherwise the emperor might have spared the young ones. After all, many emperors said that they would kill the whole family, but they would still let the young ones go.
If any of the younger ones were to be spared, it would be a hot potato for Linlang, because all the Jiang family members were dead, and she would be the only adult Jiang family member. She would not take care of those children, which seemed callous, but If you want to take her... that would be too disgusting. After all, Mr. Jiang and the fake Mrs. Jiang killed her biological mother, and she still has to raise their children. Isn't this disgusting?
So fortunately, all the children were no longer young, and the emperor killed them directly, which relieved Linlang's burden.
Then the Jiang family's property, except Mrs. Jiang's dowry, was confiscated by the emperor. Mrs. Jiang's dowry was passed on to Linlang. After all, Linlang was also a victim, and the emperor could not take away everything without giving it to him. She leaves a little.
Although Jiang, the daughter of the fake Mrs. Jiang, did not kill anyone, it was considered an attempted murder. After all, if outsiders had not discovered this, she would have been imitating Linlang, and she would have killed Linlang like her mother, but Because it was an attempt, he was sentenced to death.
