When Zhang Yong and others saw that Jia Lian was indeed fine, they were relieved and pushed the man down and knelt down in the courtyard.
Jia Lian took a look and asked, "Who is this?"
The ladies quickly replied: "Reporting to the second master, his name is Yang Chang, he is Aunt Yang's brother, and he is someone who often goes out with the elder..."
Jia Lian understood and looked at Zhang Yong and others.
Zhang Yong immediately replied: "Second Master, he was following Miss Qiutong just now and wanted to do something wrong, but we just happened to catch him!"
At this time Qiu Tong also came up from behind, knelt down quickly in front of Jia Lian, pointed at the Yang brothers and sisters and accused: "Second Master, it's them, they are the ones who want to kill Second Master, I really didn't know that ginseng soup is poisonous. , Aunt Yang asked me to send it to the second master.
Just now I followed the second master's instructions and went to the gate. Sure enough, someone was following me and wanted to kill me and silence me. It was him! "
Qiutong experienced life and death twice in a short period of time, so she was extremely frightened.
If Jia Lian really drank the poisonous soup she gave her, she would never survive. If it hadn't been for Jia Lian's advance arrangements, I'm afraid she would have been silenced by Yang Chang!
At this moment, if Qiu Tong didn't understand that she was being used as a spearman by Yang, then she didn't know how stupid she would be.
Qiutong's words made everyone change their expressions in shock.
It was really the Yang family who wanted to murder Jia Lian. Did they risk their lives?
Yang glanced at Yang Chang, who was kneeling with a gloomy look, and knew that his brother was disheartened and had no hope after seeing that Jia Lian was safe and sound.
But she didn't, she calmed down, and when everyone was looking at her, she pointed at Qiutong and cursed: "You are a vicious woman, you have done something treasonous, and you dare to push it on me, what am I doing?" Is it time for you to deliver ginseng soup to my brother?
Even if I really want to deliver it, how can I ask you to help me deliver it if there is no one around me? Stop spitting blood! "
Qiu Tong had just been submissive to Jia Lian, but she was not a person with a good personality. When she heard this, she pointed at Yang's nose and scolded: "Fuck you, I was going to have a look at the master, but you came over suddenly, He said that there is still a lot of ginseng soup left for the eldest wife, and he specifically asked me to deliver it to Second Master Lian, do you still dare to deny it?"
Yang also sneered and said: "It's full of nonsense. When did I make ginseng soup for my wife? It's obviously a lie. If you don't believe me, just ask your wife!"
In fact, I didn't survive the ginseng soup at all today. The kitchen can also testify to this. If you don't believe it, just ask the kitchen and you will know who lied. "
When Qiu Tong heard this, he wanted to find someone to testify for him. But now I thought about it, when she took the soup from Yang, it seemed that there was no one else around... How could she be so stupid, why didn't she pay attention at that time!
Qiu Tong, who felt a little regretful, subconsciously looked at Mrs. Xing.
However, Mrs. Xing just said with some doubts: "She really didn't give me ginseng soup today..."
Qiutong was stunned and couldn't help but feel a little scared. She could finally see that Yang must have gone to great lengths to frame her and get rid of her guilt.
She didn't know how to tell the difference for a moment, but she subconsciously turned her head and kowtowed to Jia Lian: "Second Master, it's really not me, it's really her. That soup was really given to me by her, and I didn't know it was poisonous, otherwise , How dare you bring the soup to the second master? I ask the second master to tell you..."
Dongkuaoyuan is not a big place, but with such a big movement, the cooks in the kitchen also came. They all said that they had not seen Yang going to the kitchen today, and of course, they had not seen Qiu Tong going there either.
A mother-in-law suggested: "Madam, why not send your servants to search my concubine's house? I think if I need to make ginseng soup, some evidence will be left behind. Then the truth will be revealed."
Mrs.
When Jia Lian saw that Yang was still fighting against the trapped beast, his heart grew colder, and then he felt relieved, that's all, he was determined to kill people to establish his authority today.
Since she wanted to establish her prestige, she couldn't be punished without teaching her. She must die clearly.
So he said to Mrs. The soup cans and so on are kept in my room waiting to be collected, so I must find a way to put them quietly in Qiutong's room."
When Yang heard this, his heart twitched.
It can be said that one step is wrong and every step is wrong.
It would be great if Jia Lian died! When everyone is in a mess, as long as someone collects evidence from Qiu Tong's house, and she uses the testimony she prepared long ago to silence Qiu Tong, who will care about Qiu Tong's life and death?
When a family like Jia's family encounters a major incident, they almost always try to calm down the storm as soon as possible and not let the family's reputation and reputation be damaged! In fact, sometimes the truth doesn’t matter!
What's more, she didn't tell the truth to her brother...
In fact, once Jia Lian died, she had made both good and bad plans.
Okay, of course everything went well and all the plans were successful. Not only did Jia Lian get killed, but he also got rid of the guilt!
bad……
Even after the matter was completed, Jia Mu and others were unable to suppress the matter and provoked a thorough investigation by all parties to find out the brothers and sisters. So they would have been willing to die for no other reason.
She had already given Cong'er to Mrs. Xing for her upbringing in advance.
Presumably, even if Jia Mu, Jia Zheng and others were furious after the incident was revealed, they would not ask to kill another innocent person, Jia She's only son. That is Jia She's only bloodline. As a dignified first-class general, Jia She must not be extinct!
Therefore, at most, the Jia family would let her brother and sister "die" of illness to end the situation.
But she didn't tell Yang Chang about this idea. She was afraid that her brother would give up after knowing about it.
She felt very guilty, but actually she didn't want to drag her brother into it. However, without her brother's participation, she would not be able to complete this matter alone.
Not to mention anything else, but the simplest thing like arsenic, she couldn't get it in!
The government and wealthy families are unusually strict in controlling poisons. With her status, if she does anything wrong, she will be reported as having bad intentions...
This is Yang's inner plan. It has to be said that she is a ruthless woman. She is willing to fight with her life in order for her son to get the wealth that does not belong to him!
But after all, she is just a woman with average knowledge.
The farthest thing she could see was the few people with the right to speak in the Jia family. The life and death she saw were all slaves like her.
All she knows is that Jia Lian has become a high-ranking official, and if they wait any longer, they will have no chance at all!
How does she really know that with Jia Lian's current status, if he lives or dies abnormally, the commotion caused by it can be suppressed by the Jia family if they want?
A fourth-grade official was poisoned to death at home before taking office, and the court could not just sit idly by and watch!
With the Jia family's current capabilities, it is impossible to hide such a major event.
Once the court's Sanfa Department intervenes and confirms her guilt, will her son Jia Cong still want to inherit the family business?
If the emperor heard about it and became furious, not to mention the life and death of Jia Cong, the concubine, I am afraid that the entire Jia clan would not be able to escape the blame.
Once something like this happens, no one can predict the next trend. All we can say is that profit makes the wise blind, and the ignorant are fearless.
This is the kind of person Jia Lian is on guard against.
Seeing the fact before his eyes, Yang still refused to plead guilty, so Jia Lian decided to start with the simple thing and deal with the accomplices first.
"Tell me, why did you come near this compound, and why did you attack Qiutong?"
The dejected Yang Chang glanced at Jia Lian in fear when he heard this.
After seeing that Jia Lian was still alive and planning to capture him, he knew that he would not survive.
But seeing that his noble sister was still resisting, he didn't know how to help her, so he could only lower his head and remain silent.
Jia Lian was too lazy to talk to such a person and directly ordered: "Drag him down and beat him until he is willing to tell the truth."
At this moment, many people had gathered in front of this small courtyard.
The housekeeper and the housekeeper's wife were very experienced in ordinary things like beating a wooden board. They quickly found the torture stick, dragged Yang Chang over and pinned him to the ground and started beating him.
Jia Lian gave Feng Fei a look, and Feng Fei immediately walked over, grabbed the board from a boy's hand, and hit Yang Chang hard on the body.
Feng Fei had personally killed the enemy on the battlefield. Knowing that the Yang brothers and sisters were plotting to murder Jia Lian, he wanted to kill them. How could he hold back at this moment? As he almost took the board from him, Yang Chang's muffled voice changed. It became a scream.
Seeing that Yang Chang was afraid that his brother would die if he continued like this, he could not control himself, so he rushed over and blocked the fleshy Yang Chang, crying to Mrs. They are waiting for an opportunity to retaliate against us.
He must have hated Cong'er because the master didn't pass on the title to him, and he also hated us all. Want to take this opportunity to insult us.
Maybe today’s scene was written and directed by Mr. Lian..."
In desperation, Yang reacted extremely quickly, trying to drag down the superior Jia Lian so that he could not deal with them, or at least delay them.
She believed that as long as more people of high status came over, Jia Lian would not be able to do anything to them.
The effect was there. As soon as she finished speaking, some people looked thoughtful.
It seems that there is really a possibility like what Yang said...
After all, Yang was Jia She's concubine, so even Feng Fei didn't dare to knock down the bright board after Yang pounced on her.
Mrs. Xing was also afraid that things would get messy, so she comforted Jia Lian: "Lian'er, it's better to lock up her brother first, and then deal with it after the investigation comes to light..."
Mrs. Xing's words are not biased at all. She does not want to protect the Yang brothers and sisters, but this is how the big family handles such things.
Imprisoning the person first, then letting him die "normally", and beating the person to death in public, even if he is just a slave, will have a huge impact on the family.
Under normal circumstances, Jia Lian would also be willing to act in accordance with the rules of the big family.
However, today he was completely angered.
He said to Mrs. Xing: "What the eldest lady said is true, but isn't my son just investigating?
It's just that they would rather die than say anything, because their son had no other choice. Even when the court investigated the case, they didn't say that torture was not allowed. "
After casually addressing Mrs. Xing, Jia Lian stood up.
“Since ancient times, the state has its own laws, and each family has its own family laws!
Anyone who violates these two items cannot escape responsibility.
Since my aunt still refused to plead guilty, I had to interrogate the people around my aunt one by one.
Since Yang Chang intends to kill Qiu Tong and silence him, he is the biggest suspect at this time, so I interrogated him. Is there anything you don't understand? "
While Jia Lian was talking, he didn't want anyone else to respond. He looked at the housekeeper's wife, suddenly raised his voice, and shouted: "If you haven't pulled my aunt away, are you going to let so many people watch your aunt lying on the ground?" Lose your dignity?"
The housekeeper's wife was frightened and rushed to pull Yang.
Yang had just been pulled away a little when she saw Jia Lian's hand waving down. When she was still thinking about what Jia Lian's gesture meant, she heard a desperate groan behind her, and she quickly looked back.
Feng Fei coldly put away his stick and stood aside, while her brother's head was covered in blood and flesh.
"Ah~~!!"
Yang let out a shrill scream, pushed the others away, rushed over and hugged her brother's head, but her hands trembled in fright as soon as she touched him.
He lowered his head and saw that his brother's face was wide open, with blood oozing from his orifices. When he stretched out his hand, there was no breathing.
"Ah, I'll kill you, you devil..." Yang became crazy, stood up and struck Feng Fei.
Feng Fei has been following Jia Lian for a year. What cruel scenes have he not seen?
He knew exactly what Jia Lian meant by telling him to kill Yang Chang with a stick, so he carried out the order without hesitation, just like killing a captured enemy on the battlefield.
Anyone who murders the second master should die.
As for Yang's scratching and kicking of his hands, he chose to ignore it until he got a signal from Jia Lian. Anyway, a defenseless woman could not cause any substantial harm to him.
Everyone around was stunned, with many of them opening their mouths wide and unable to close them.
Even if you don't know how hard Feng Fei's blow was just now, you can know the result just by looking at Yang's reaction.
Many people couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
In the Jia Mansion, for who knows how many years, there has never been a case of someone being beaten to death on the spot!
Older people know that even when the old master was still alive, such a situation was very rare. Only when I heard that a generation of princes used military law to govern their families and executed evil slaves, there were more cases.
Some people thought that Feng Fei had gone crazy and dared to kill someone on the spot.
There are also a few people who know that Feng Fei is not crazy, he is just following Jia Lian's orders.
They also knew that Mr. Lian was really angry today, and that Mr. Lian was going to kill someone when he was angry!
Not to mention the slaves, even Mrs. Xing couldn't help but take two steps back when she saw this, feeling terrified in her heart. She opened her mouth, as if she wanted to scold Jia Lian when he made a mistake like before, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't say a word.
At this moment, she finally knew why she always felt uncomfortable when facing Jia Lian...
She is afraid of Jia Lian and her legitimate son, who is becoming more and more powerful!
