To support exiled officials, start by worshipping the God of Wealth

Jiusu looked over and saw that, indeed, he looked like he had frozen to death.

"The body was bright red. Before death, he felt hot, so he rolled up his sleeves. He was at extremely low temperatures, and before he entered near-death, he had a 'fake smile'. This is indeed a sign of freezing to death."

When she got the confirmation, she felt disappointed.

Jiang Jing added: "There are debris on the ten fingers, and judging from the color, it looks like a gate."

Aunt Wang ran over and pointed at the marks left on the door.

"It's true! There are new scratches here. Oh, it was so cold last night. My sister froze to death! Jiugui, you bastard, you froze your mother to death! Do you have any conscience?"

Freeze your mother to death.

These few short words are full of blood.

"Jiusu, you brought a wild man to my house to cause trouble, right? Get out of my house!" Jiugui grabbed Jiang Jing by the collar and threw him outside, but he couldn't move at all.

Jiang Jing held his hand and exerted a little force.

Jiugui cried out in pain: "It hurts, it hurts."

It was freezing cold last night. Thinking of her mother in the dream, Jiusu realized belatedly that she was saying goodbye to her. Her eyes turned cold, "It's not even winter yet, how can you bear to lock mother out?"

Jiugui put his hands into his sleeves, squatted in front of the door, and said irritably.

"Don't talk nonsense. She died of starvation. There was no food at home. You were cruel and vicious and killed our mother!"

"We can ask for a coroner." Jiusu's eyes fell on the deceased, feeling a little reluctant. Women had a low status in ancient times, but Jiusu's mother also favored boys over girls.

The tragedy repeats itself over and over again.

Hateful and pitiful.

When a person dies, it is like a light going out. All past conflicts are gone like a cloud of smoke. Jiusu wondered, when she was locked outside and was about to freeze to death, did she regret the decision she made in this life?

Ask for a coroner? That would involve a murder case.

Not to mention the people in the government, in the winter in Lingcheng, the mountain wind is cold and countless people have frozen to death. Nine out of ten people know what it looks like to have frozen to death.

The villagers looked up and saw quite a bit as well.

Chen Yulan's eyes kept rolling: "We don't have money, so we won't invite you! You heartless man, get out of here now, we don't recognize you anymore! Jiugui, drive her away! Let's bury our mother in the ground!"

On important matters, Jiugui listens to his wife.

He stammered, "Get lost! A married woman is like spilled water. You don't need to meddle in our family affairs!"

Jiusu's voice was cold, even cooler than the autumn breeze in the early morning.

"Murder and murder are no longer family affairs, they are state affairs!"

"Who do you think you are? You are not qualified to take charge of state affairs?" Chen Yulan mocked, took out a kitchen knife from the kitchen, and said rudely, "Get out of here. We don't hold funerals in our family. It's unlucky for an old woman to die. Hurry up and get a hoe and go to the mountain to bury her."

Jiugui had a bad reputation and his wife was not a good one either.

Village Chief Chen had never thought that their behavior was so bad. He said, "Put her down! A son and a daughter-in-law, how cruel!"

Suddenly.

Jiang Jing strode into the yard and bowed to Jiusu under the puzzled gazes of everyone.

He said slowly, "Master Jiu, someone is planning to kill your mother and is being disrespectful to you. Should we beat her to death with sticks?"

!!!

Everyone's eyes widened involuntarily. Yes, they subconsciously thought that Jiusu was from the same village as them. The only difference between him and them was that he had some money and became more elegant.

But they forget that this is a real high-ranking official!

Village Chief Chen knelt on the ground and said, "I am your humble servant, Lord Jiu. Please take a closer look at this couple, who were so ambitious that they killed their own mother! Moreover, they always abused her on weekdays."

The villagers fell to their knees.

Jiusu suddenly realized, oh~ she was the salt transport envoy, a third-rank official. She asked the villagers to get up first, her face was cold, and when her eyes met Jiugui and his wife, they were so scared that they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

"Do you admit to kicking her out last night?"

The indifferent tone made them lower their heads again and again.

Jiang Jing found a wooden stick from somewhere, "After the count of three, I will beat you until you say yes, three..."

"I say!" Chen Yulan hugged her son and swallowed nervously, "Last night, I had a quarrel with my mother-in-law and kicked her out. I thought she went to find Jiusu..."

Jiusu asked: "Did you hear her knocking on the door?"

Chen Yulan shook her head, "No, no, we fell asleep very early."

"The gate is so close to the house, and the window is broken. Did you not hear it or are you pretending not to hear it?" Jiang Jing's eyes were stern. "If you know about it but don't tell others, you will be guilty of an even greater crime!"

The Jiu family’s house is not big, so it’s impossible that Jiu’s mother didn’t hear her knocking on the door.

The lie was soon exposed.

Chen Yulan had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "I heard about it. We didn't open the door. I wanted to teach her a lesson. Who told her that she couldn't get the money from you? If you ask me, her death is all your fault!"

When he met Jiusu's cold eyes, he immediately lowered his head.

Jiusu's heart trembled. Sure enough, they were the ones who killed her. She took out a comb and, together with the two maids, tidied up Jiumu's face and rolled up her sleeves.

There were ripples in my heart.

"Based on the crimes they have committed, how should they be sentenced?"

Jiang Jing twirled his fingers and said, "According to the laws of our dynasty, the lighter punishments are ten years in prison, caning, and the heavier punishments are exile a thousand miles away, never to return home for life."

The two men collapsed to the ground in fear.

Jiudali picked up a stone and threw it at Jiang Jing, "Bad guy! Get out of my house!"

"Assaulting an official is a heavier crime." Jiang Jing caught the stone, spread his palm, and sprinkled it in front of Jiugui. "You mean, the child is still young, right? It's okay. The child made a mistake and the adult took the responsibility."

Jiudali still wanted to hit him.

After being grabbed by Jiugui's collar and thrown to the ground, the child burst into tears. Jiugui was upset and raised his hand to hit his son on the butt, "You bastard, you won't feel comfortable until you kill your father, right?"

Slap, slap, slap! The butt was spanked until it was red.

Chen Yulan grabbed the child distressedly, pointed at Jiugui's nose and cursed: "Why did I marry such a cowardly man like you? You are not as brave as your son. I am so unlucky!"

Being scolded by his own wife in public.

Men have lost their dignity and face.

Jiugui was so angry that his face turned red. He grabbed the woman's hair, pressed her to the ground and beat her, roaring to vent his anger, "I'm incompetent! Go find a capable man! I always listened to you. You said farm work was hard, and we were lazy at home, working my father to death and my mother sick. Later, you said that my mother must have some money, so we ate her coffin money! Now she's dead and only wrapped in straw! Oh, yes, speaking of death, wasn't that your idea?"

"Shut up!" Chen Yulan struggled to push the man away. She was shaking with fear. "Your mother deserved it. Who told her not to go find Jiusu? It wasn't me. It wasn't me who killed her!"

After ten years of marriage, this man actually wants to throw all the dirty water on her!

Let's die together! Jiugui, don't even think about getting rid of her!

Jiugui yelled, "If you don't kick her out, will she freeze to death? What else can you say? If she faints from the cold and gets sick, just take her to Jiusu. Jiusu will definitely give her money!"
