When Shi Yi thinks about Xianyu, someone always comes to disturb her.

The Shangshu's wife said to her son, "You are still ill, just lie down and recuperate. The woman outside will come to receive you."

She turned to Lin Yuxuan and raised her hand:

"Sir Lin, can you please go to the main hall to discuss things? My son is seriously ill and cannot answer your questions. If you have any questions, you can ask me."

Lin Yuxuan followed the servant who led the way out indifferently. The Shangshu's wife looked back at her son and also went to the main hall.

She sat down in the main seat and said to Lin Yuxuan, "What does Lord Lin want to ask?"

Lin Yuxuan was not pretentious and asked, "Haizi's new daughter-in-law is familiar with the eldest son, right?"

The Shangshu's wife frowned. Doesn't this guy know how to avoid taboos? Is he asking such a sharp question to embarrass the host?

The Shangshu's wife slammed the teacup on the table with great force. A crisp sound of "click" was heard, showing her anger and unhappiness.

Lord Jingzhao Yin waited for the answer calmly, looking directly at the Shangshu's wife without dodging.

The Shangshu's wife was very annoyed by his disrespectful attitude and said bluntly: "Lord Lin, in what capacity are you asking me this?"

Lin Yuxuan said without hesitation:

"I am here to question you as the prefect of Jingzhao. I thought you would recognize me because I am wearing official uniform. If you are not satisfied, I can ask you to come to the lobby of Jingzhao Prefecture to question me."

She was making a face and throwing cups. What did he think was afraid of her? He had to try a lot of cases in Jingzhao Prefecture, and naturally he had met all kinds of people.

He was not a new official. A new official who knew nothing might be frightened by the aura of the Shangshu's wife. After all, he had been in the officialdom for eight years and would not be frightened by the means of a woman.

If this was done by the Shangshu, he might be afraid, because people in official circles must be fully prepared to take action against you, and they will only take action when they are sure they can bring you down. Otherwise, they will make enemies for themselves, which is a taboo. No shrewd official would do this.

But after going around in circles just now, he could basically conclude that the murder was committed by the woman in the backyard, which also explained why the tail was not cleaned up.

Lin Yuxuan felt a lot more relaxed. As long as he didn't have to confront the Shangshu directly, this matter would be much easier to handle.

The Shangshu's wife didn't expect that a small Jingzhao Yin would dare to treat her like this. She was so angry that she couldn't even say a word: "You, you..." She kept mumbling for a long time but couldn't utter a complete sentence.

Lin Yuxuan vented his anger and decided to stop while he was ahead. He said:

"I think Madam still wants to talk here, so let's talk properly."

The Shangshu's wife uttered a "Hmph!" but in the end she didn't say anything unpleasant.

Lin Yuxuan was satisfied and continued to ask: "Madam, can you tell me what the relationship is between Haizi's new wife and the eldest son?"

The Shangshu's wife glanced at Jingzhao Yin and said in a nonchalant and cold tone:

"What kind of relationship can they have? They are just ordinary cousins. My sister's daughter is the wife of that gangster. They got married last month. I didn't expect that the gangster was a wife-killer. He killed my niece right after the wedding."

Lin Yuxuan let out a long "Oh..." and continued to ask in confusion: "How can ordinary cousins ​​sleep together?"

The Shangshu's wife slammed the table and said angrily: "You are talking nonsense!"

Lin Yuxuan stood up and chuckled:

"Madam, you know better than anyone whether I am talking nonsense or not. You also said that Haizi's wife got married last month, so how come she is more than three months pregnant?"

When the Shangshu's wife heard this, her eyes trembled and she was so shocked that she was speechless for a moment.

"Who did she commit adultery with before her marriage?" Lin Yuxuan did not stop and continued to ask.

The Shangshu's wife murmured, "Impossible, she can't be pregnant. If she was pregnant, why would she hide it from me?" She had to use this to blackmail her.

Lin Yuxuan heard it, and kindly helped the Shangshu's wife to clear up the confusion: "Maybe this is the first time the little girl is pregnant, and she doesn't understand it herself?"

The Shangshu's wife fell back in despair. The servants quickly reached out to support her, preventing her from falling to the ground and instead letting her fall back into her seat.

Seeing her look of disbelief, Lin Yuxuan continued:

"The child could have been the child of whoever she was intimate with before she married Haizi. Unfortunately, she was poisoned to death, resulting in two deaths.

So, now we have to investigate who poisoned her? Madam Shangshu, can you explain this to me? "

The Shangshu's wife's eyes were red, and she said bitterly: "Useless thing, you didn't even know you were pregnant, you deserved to be poisoned to death."

Lin Yuxuan: ...

"Her husband must have poisoned her. He knew she was pregnant with someone else's child, so of course he wouldn't let her go. That must be it."

Lin Yuxuan asked with interest: "Whose child is she pregnant with?"

Madam Shangshu: ...

Madam Shangshu looked at Lin Yuxuan angrily and roared: "How do I know whose child she is pregnant with? I'm not her mother."

Lin Yuxuan nodded: "You are right, I should ask her mother, she might know."

He clasped his fists, turned around and said goodbye, leaving in a clean and quick manner.

The Shangshu's wife was a little panicked. She had been very mean to her sister's family. It could be said that she had looked down on them in the past.

My sister just lost her daughter. Will she tell everything without any scruples?

She must hate her sister, because it was she who prevented the two children from being together, which led to the current situation.

But who doesn’t love their own children?

Her son can marry a girl from a better family. Such a marriage will be the best help to her son, and the Yue family will be able to arrange a good future for her son in the future.

What could possibly happen to me being with that damn girl?

There is nothing. In the future, my family will have to help my sister's family, and there will be no help at all. What's good about this kind of marriage? I definitely can't agree to it.

But who would have thought that she was pregnant?

Did she almost have a grandchild? Oh my! I was so angry. How could someone be so stupid? Didn't they even know they were pregnant?

If she knew, she would agree to take that dead girl as a concubine.

It's too late to say anything now, and her grandson will never come back.

Also, this case cannot be uncovered, otherwise it will be difficult for me to get out of this situation, and I cannot let my sister admit that her daughter is related to my son.

She couldn't let the Jingzhao Yin go to her sister's house right now, she had to make some arrangements first.

She immediately called the servants and took a shortcut to invite her sister to the Shangshu Mansion. She wanted to have a good talk with her sister.

She thought that the younger sister was still at her mercy, but her daughter was already dead, so what reason was there for her to curry favor with her?

Now he doesn't even want to see her.

If the marriage fails, then there will be enmity!
