One stated that he had nothing to do with Grandma Lai's death, the other directly defined that Grandma Lai was angry to death by her own son, and the third mentioned enlightenment to divert the attention of the government and the opposition from the conflict.

After all, compared to education, the death of an old lady who was a slave was nothing at all.

Fourth, if Shuntian Mansion is looking for trouble, then Shi Zhongkui's participation in Shuntian Mansion will be unfavorable, let alone Liu Zhongkun, and all the officials in Shuntian Mansion will be in trouble.

Liu Zhongkun thought for a while and hurriedly blamed the matter on the recommendation officer Xia Shixiang.

Besides, the official is responsible for the punishment and punishment.

Xia Shixiang cursed in his heart, but he had to take over the errand, follow Jia Lian and Jia Rong, and lead the official servants to find out the cause of Grandma Lai's death.

As for Shi Zhongkui and others, of course they went to sit down at the Ronxi Hall.

Drink tea, chat, and wait for the results to come out.

When the sky darkened and Jia's house was lit with lanterns again, Xia Shixiang came with his people.

"The Lord of the Palace, Mr. Shi, the Government, and Master Pardon Rong, the lower official personally took the work with him. After a careful inspection, the official confirmed that the old lady of the Lai family did indeed die of extreme anger, and there was no external injury at all on her body, and there was no sign of poisoning.

Now we only need to interrogate Na Lai Er and the case can be closed."

Jia Zheng and Jia She hurriedly looked at Shi Zhongkui, and Shi Zhongkui nodded and waved to Jia Rong.

Jia Rong hurriedly took people to check on Lai Er, who was locked up in the woodshed, and brought him over tied up.

As soon as he saw Jia Zheng and others, as well as Shi Zhongkui and a group of officials and servants from Shuntian Mansion, Lai Er instantly turned pale.

Laiji's face was completely gray at this time.

However, probably because he didn’t want to carry the accusation of unfilial piety after his death and still have to make a final struggle.

As Lai Er told what happened, he repeated again and again that he did not know that Grandma Lai almost fainted before.

After hearing this, Xia Shixiang looked at Liu Zhongkun and Shi Zhongkui, and saw them nodding.

Then he said, "You are saying that in order to ask the old lady of the Jia family to save your eldest brother and nephew Lai Shangrong, you told your mother that you wanted to give up the family wealth accumulated over the years and take care of it."

Wait until they are rescued, and then ask the Jia Mansion for mercy and let your family go back to Jinling?"

Laiji nodded hurriedly, "I didn't expect that my mother would be so angry that she would abandon me and other children and grandchildren just because a villain wanted to give up the family wealth.

If I knew, I would never say this under any circumstances."

Shi Zhongkui smiled, and Jia She, Jia Zheng and others looked ugly.

The so-called family wealth is definitely not the current gold, silver and land of the Lai family, but the newly built garden of the Lai family.

Thinking further, Lai Er is threatening the Jia family to save themselves.

Moreover, he also said that Grandma Lai almost fainted when she was at Jia's house.

If Xia Shixiang, the recommendation officer, did not ask why Aunt Lai fainted, then the subsequent interrogation would have to be biased towards Lai Er.

But Xia Shixiang would never dare to do it in front of so many people, even with his master taking notes, one-sidedly favoring the Jia family.

When it comes to your official status and future, let alone the Jia family, even if the prince comes, you will still die.

Sure enough, when talking about why Aunt Lai fainted, we have to mention the incident of Lai Shangrong being captured by the Xiuyi Guards.

All of a sudden, the embroidery guards were implicated.

Xia Shixiang and Liu Zhongkun's expressions changed and they hurriedly looked at Shi Zhongkui.

Shi Zhongkui smiled slightly, "Since there is a case within the case, just ask the embroidered clothes guard to come over."

The expressions of Jia Zheng, Jia She and others suddenly changed.

Shi Zhongkui looked at Lai Er and said with a smile, "Lai Er, all you rely on is the newly built house by your family. Was it built by your family or the Jia family, right?"

When Laiji saw him directly exposing this matter, his expression immediately changed.

Shi Zhongkui snorted coldly, looked at Jia Zheng, and Jia She said, "Father-in-law, second uncle, something has happened in your palace, and the queen in the palace must not go home during the Lantern Festival to visit relatives.

That being the case, there's nothing to worry about.

Moreover, in the eyes of the son-in-law, the slaves were just relying on their master's trust to seize the master's property by taking advantage of the opportunity of building a separate courtyard for his wife.

And I am sure that for the sake of my mother-in-law's marriage, your mansion does not dare to make any announcement. This is why you are so confident."

After saying that, Shi Zhongkui looked at Lai Er and said, "What a pity you didn't expect is that your mother was so angry that you died in Jia's house. How could your mother-in-law, who is such a noble lady, return home to visit her relatives at this time?"

Laiji's expression suddenly changed.

Shi Zhongkui didn't wait for him to hesitate, looked at Liu Zhongkun and Xia Shixiang and said, "Master Liu, Master Xia, this Lai Er just said it himself, his own mother died after hearing what he said.

No matter whether it was that Aunt Lai was already ill, or she had a sudden illness, or even that Aunt Lai had already run out of gas, she would die soon.

But before Lai Er said those words to Grandma Lai, the old lady was still alive after all.

In other words, Lai Er cannot escape the crime of being unfilial."

Liu Zhongkun and Xia Shixiang looked at each other and realized that this was absolutely true.

"It's unfair, it's unfair."

Laiji, who was tied up by the Five Flowers, immediately started struggling on the ground.

Shi Zhongkui knew that he would tell the Jia family other secrets to threaten the Jia family.

He smiled and said, "Master Liu, Master Xia, this man is a son of the Jia family for generations. He does not want to repay the kindness of the master of the family, but he covets his master's money. The lower officials say that he is disloyal and unjust."
