Chapter 315

"Even if I kill her now, chop off her head, grind her bones and scatter her ashes, she will still be resurrected."

Jiao Niang showed horror: "You mean——"

The huge panic made her voice seem to be stuck in her throat and she was speechless for a long time.

"What happened to Sang Jingwan has always been very mysterious and cannot be explained by common sense."

Wang Shang said with a serious expression: "Before, when Sang Jingwan said 'Jiang Anning dies, she lives', didn't we also doubt whether this was true?"

"If Your Majesty had not been concerned about this, why would we be so timid?"

"On the one hand, we are worried that Jiang Wei and Jiang Anhou Mansion will bite us like mad dogs, but more importantly, it is because of what Sang Jingwan left behind."

Otherwise, if one really wanted to conceal the truth, it would be possible as long as the palace issued a death order.

No matter how impossible it is, you have to try your best to make it happen.

Otherwise, who knows how many people’s heads would fall off like this.

Jiao Niang seemed to be thinking about it, but after thinking about it, she felt it was impossible.

"You mean, Sang Jingwan really came back to life as she said back then?"

"But Jiang Anning is not dead!"

"Even if there really is such a mysterious technique in this world, it can't be without conditions, right?"

"What Sang Jingwan said back then was that she would only be resurrected if Jiang Anning died."

"Now Jiang Anning is still alive and well, and she even invited you to have dinner with her and spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with her."

"You can't..."

Jiao Niang seemed to have thought of something, and she stopped talking abruptly, her face gradually becoming filled with fear.

"Can't what?"

Wang Shang frowned and looked at the beautiful lady who suddenly fell silent.

Jiao Niang looked at the person hesitantly, as if she was afraid to speak.

“It can’t be something like that. Just tell me…” Wang Shang was a little anxious.

He analyzed the pros and cons with others: "We are now on the same boat! You still have to tell us what you think. Let's discuss it together and see if it is useful information."

"As the saying goes, one person's plan is short, two people's plan is long, and three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang."

"Just now, wasn't it because of what you said that I thought of many of the key points?"

"Every word you say now concerns the life and death of both of us!"

Jiao Niang's mouth twitched slightly: "I just think it's a bit unbelievable."

Although she could think boldly, what she thought was a little too bold.

The more you think about it, the more impossible it seems.

If all this were possible, what would the world become like?
Jiao Niang kept mumbling words like "impossible, impossible, absolutely impossible". No matter how Wang Shang asked and how anxious he was, she refused to say a word.

"Just tell me what it is!"

"Just say it, no matter if it's possible or not!"

"Just tell us what's going on, and we'll analyze and verify it!"

Wang Shang was extremely anxious.

Jiao Niang looked at her with hesitation on her face. She hesitated for a long time but still didn't say anything.

"So many bizarre things happened to Sang Jingwan."

"Don't you and I know this very well?"

"No matter how many bizarre things there are, you and I have already witnessed them."

"Logically speaking, I have seen the world."

"No matter how bizarre it is now, can it be compared to the past?"

Wang Shang was ready to throw the can down the drain: "It can't be that bad. Jiang Anning is not alive now!"

When Jiao Niang heard this, she was so surprised that she forgot to hide her emotions and her eyes widened.

Wang Shang paused slightly.

After a long while, he was not sure, so he asked tentatively: "You don't mean to say that Jiang Anning...can't be dead?"

How can it be?

That's too unbelievable.

Can……

Wang Shang was thinking about it randomly and found it a little unbelievable.

But the more I think about it, the more I feel that there is a hint of rationality in this strangeness.
"You have the same idea?"

Jiao Niang looked at the hesitation and shock on the man's face and sighed softly.

"Now you know why I refused to speak just now?"

"You said this yourself, you don't even believe it, right?"

Jiao Niang was silent for a moment: "Even if I tell you, I don't believe it either."

"Don't even mention believing it. Just thinking about it makes me feel like I'm crazy."

"Otherwise, how could you have such an outrageous idea?"

"It felt like a dead person was standing in front of me alive."

"How ridiculous!"

Jiao Niang smiled bitterly: "If you say this to others, I will doubt whether I should take medicine."

Wang Shang was silent for a long time, and no one knew what he was thinking.

After a long while, he finally said, "It seems-not-not-completely impossible."

"Ok?"

Jiao Niang looked at him in shock.

Some people wonder if this person is crazy?
"What nonsense are you talking about?"

How is it possible for someone to appear alive when they are clearly dead?
This is not some supernatural world!
How could something so weird happen?
"It's not impossible."

Wang Shang's voice became more and more firm, and in the end, he was almost certain.

Jiao Niang was stunned.

Seeing that the man didn't seem to be joking, he was silent for a long time before asking, "Are you serious?"

This... is a joke?

Seeing that the man seemed to be becoming more and more serious, she couldn't help but become serious as well.

I just thought about it again and again, but I couldn't come up with anything.

"Have you thought of something?"

This man has always been serious. If he hadn't thought of something, he wouldn't have said such a thing so suddenly.

Wang Shang said "hmm" and nodded.

Jiao Niang was even more surprised.

"What did you think of?"

Could it be that someone really died, but appeared in front of everyone as if he was still alive?
"Do you still remember that Jiang Anning had a silent, ferocious-looking, cold-faced attendant?"

Wang Shang raised his hand and gestured: "It's the one with the scar on his face!" "Duan Qingshan?"

Jiao Niang is usually responsible for collecting information related to Jiang An Ning, so she is naturally not unfamiliar with Duan Qingshan.

Wang Shang said “hmm”.

"What's wrong with him?" Jiao Niang was puzzled.

Wang Shang had a sullen face and spoke after a while: "He had a mother who died before he and Jiang An Ning!"

Jiao Niang nodded: "It is true that there is such a thing."

Later, Mrs. An's subordinates even went to dig up someone's grave and dug out the urn!

"Anyone who has a relationship with Jiang An Ning, especially a new face like Duan Qingshan who suddenly appeared next to Jiang An Ning, will be carefully investigated by both us and Madam An to prevent someone from secretly doing something wrong!"

"We have also carefully checked this section of Qingshan."

But what does this have to do with the fact that Jiang Anning is very likely a living dead?
Wang Shang frowned, his expression very solemn: "Duan Qingshan's mother has been dead for a long time!"

"But the neighbors all said that his mother went out to splash water on the morning he was diagnosed with death."

"A few days before her death was confirmed, she had gone to the market and chatted with the elderly women who lived next door. They sat together and passed the time sewing shoe soles."

Jiao Niang frowned and thought for a while: "It seems that there is such a thing."

"It is said that when the doctor was checking the patient's pulse, he found that the patient had already died."

"But after telling the truth, Duan Qingshan almost beat me to death!"

"Later, I inquired further and heard that the man had been out before, met people, bought groceries and cooked at home. I was even more frightened and went crazy."

However, not many people believe such an outrageous thing.

Could it be that Duan Qingshan's mother is the kind of person who is obviously dead but appears in front of people as a living person and looks like a living person?
Can……

"How is this possible?"

Jiao Niang didn't understand: "Let's not talk about it for now, is there such a bizarre magic or strange existence?"

"Just saying, why?"

"It seems that Duan Qingshan's mother is not a very important person, right?"

"Why did such a bizarre thing happen to her?"

Wang Shang snorted and laughed, his expression cold: "Since her son can stay by Jiang Anning's side, he is not necessarily a simple person."

"We all ignored it before, thinking it was just a small matter. In addition, that Duan Qingshan was indeed from a clean family, and there was no problem for three generations before him."

"Before, it really had nothing to do with Jiang Anning, Sang Jingwan, or the Sang family."

"Naturally, I ignored it. This is most likely a trick of the enemy."

"Otherwise, how do you explain why such a bizarre thing was found on Duan Qingshan's mother?"

"and……"

Wang Shang said coldly: "Don't you find it strange?"

"A person who has been dead for a long time appears alive all day long and lives his life as usual."

"He was found dead, but no one thought there was anything wrong!"

"Logically speaking, such a big thing, not only in Jiang'an County, everyone is discussing it as a topic of conversation after dinner, but the people living near Duan Qingshan's house are actually not curious at all?"

"Don't they have any fear in their hearts?"

Jiao Niang pondered for a moment and said, "Now that you put it like that, it seems like something is really wrong?"

She asked anxiously, "What should we do now?"

Could it be that Jiang Anning had really died a long time ago just like Duan Qingshan's mother?
If this is true, how can they explain themselves when they return to Beijing?

Just die and apologize!

"Don't panic yet."

Wang Shangyou remained calm and said, "We still have to investigate and verify the matter to know the specific situation."

"No matter how much we say now, it's just our guess!"

"It's better not to scare yourself about something that has not been determined."

"Don't panic, you will make mistakes easily."

Jiao Niang nodded, but her expression became much more cautious, no longer as relaxed as before.

"Then how do we check?"

Jiao Niang frowned: "She looks very alive now, not even dead at all. It's obvious that we can't tell anything with the naked eye."

"The only way is to check the person's pulse!"

As she spoke, Jiao Niang paused slightly: "Come to think of it, when you were pretending to be a doctor from Anjifang, didn't you take someone's pulse once?"

"What was the scene like?"

"Is he still alive?"

Wang Shang said: "Of course he is still alive, otherwise why would I not realize something is wrong until now."

"Although Jiang Anning's pulse at the time was not very good, it was indeed a sign of a living person. He was just weak and had lost blood."

Jiao Niang nodded: "That at least shows that the efforts we spent before were not in vain."

"If things are really as we speculated, Jiang Anning is already dead... then it is very likely that this happened in the past year."

She looked at Wang Shang and asked, "You were in charge of killing Sang Jingwan at the time. Apart from the sentence she left behind, that if Jiang Anning turned 25, she would be resurrected, was there anything else she said?"

Wang Shang shook his head.

"That's all she said."

Jiao Niang frowned: "Is there such a possibility?"

"what?"

Wang Shang raised his head and looked at the people.

Jiao Niang also looked up at Wang Shang, and their eyes met: "Could it be that Sang Jingwan was not really dead from the beginning?"

Wang Shang's face darkened instantly.

"Don't misunderstand me!" Before anyone got angry, Jiao Niang said, "I'm not saying that you're incompetent or betraying me for personal gain."

"What I mean is, is there a possibility that Sang Jingwan is not really dead, and her death in front of us is just an illusion she created with a trick?"

Jiao Niang said in a cold voice: "You and I both know why Sang Jingwan entered the palace and why she was killed."

Isn’t it because of that superb, strange and bizarre skill?

"Since Sang Jingwan was able to kill Concubine Jiang silently, then it might not be difficult for her to do something else to deceive us and make us think that she is dead."

Wang Shang seemed to be thinking: "If you put it that way, it's not impossible."

"If that's the case, I really remember another thing."

Wang Shang narrowed his eyes.

Jiao Niang looked at him, waiting for him to continue.

"After the bodies of Sang Jingwan and his wife were sent back to Jiangjia Village, Jiang Anning, as their only daughter, did not seem to be too sad."

"Or rather...she is indeed sad, but it seems like she was prepared for it long ago."

"It was as if they had anticipated this and knew that his father and mother would not be able to come back after this trip."

"And don't you think that when Jiang Anning dealt with the aftermath after the news of Sang Jingwan and her husband's death reached Jiangjia Village, he seemed to have no idea what to do, but in fact, he had a method in his panic."
