Whether it was the Jingzhao Yin Yamen or the Dali Temple, they all referred to the Da Qi Law when trying cases.

Although Zhao Zhe's knife did not kill Jia Xinglin immediately, it had the same consequence.

There is a similar case in the laws of the Great Qi Dynasty, in which the offender was sentenced to exile to the north.

Jiang Yuzhu's active plea was just a matter of touching her upper lip with her lower lip and saying one more word; it would not change the law.

She did this not to clear her reputation, but to disgust Wei Jing.

After hearing this, the Zhao family was deeply moved and said, "Thank you, Madam, for being so magnanimous and letting bygones be bygones..."

Zhao Zhe is the most promising descendant of the Zhao family, and the Zhao family is wholeheartedly trying to protect him.

According to the usual routine, find a scapegoat to take the blame.

Unfortunately, Zhao Zhe was left-handed, and after being reported by his servant Chongyang, he confessed the crime himself, which meant a dead end for the Zhao family.

"Nothing, I'm just clarifying the facts."

Jiang Yuzhu finished her words slowly, then changed her tone, "So, shouldn't the Zhao family return the tens of thousands of taels of silver they owe me?"

To cooperate with Jiang Yuzhu, Xie Zhao pretended to be surprised and asked, "Madam, is there such a thing?"

From the moment Jiang Yuzhu spoke up for Zhao Zhe, Xie Zhao had a premonition that she was plotting something, and sure enough, the Zhao family fell into the trap obediently.

Seeing everyone looking at her, Jiang Yuzhu pondered for a moment and said, "It's not a big deal. Fendie borrowed tens of thousands of taels of silver from me for her business before. After she was expelled from the clan, this money became a bad debt."

"I'm good friends with Fendie, so if you used my own money, it would be fine. But I was short of money at the time, so I went back to my parents' home to get it."

Zhao Fendie owes money to the Jiang family. How dare the Zhao family refuse to pay?

Now, the Zhao family, who were originally grateful to Jiang Yuzhu for their help, were so angry that they were speechless and almost cursed on the spot.

Even a fool would know that Zhao Fendie was a traitor and conspired with Jiang Yuzhu to plot against the Zhao family, but the Zhao family couldn't explain themselves clearly and had to suffer in silence.

If the case really goes to court, the Zhao family will have to acknowledge it as long as there is written evidence.

Tens of thousands of taels of silver is like cutting off a piece of meat. Do you really think the Zhao family has the same ability to make money as Jiang Fulu?

Jiang Fulu trembled his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "Yuzhu, the Zhao family hasn't returned the money yet?"

The Zhao family: "..."

Jiang Fulu is such a shameless old man. He didn't spend a penny but made himself a creditor!

Unexpectedly, something even more shameless was yet to come.

Jiang Fulu said calmly, "I remember it seems like I owed it for some time. We have some friendship with the Zhao family, so let's not ask for the interest."

After saying this, Jiang Fulu glanced at Censor Lu.

Censor Lu understood and it was his turn to take the stage: "It is only natural to repay debts. There is no business without capital in the world. Interest should be returned."

The two adults of the Zhao family shook their bodies and almost vomited blood.

Bullshit interest, not even the principal!

Didn't Jiang Yuzhu mention this in front of the emperor just to flatter them?

Now, the Zhao family has separated from the Jiang family, Zhao Zhe has killed Xun Gui, and everything is caused by Wei Jing.

From then on, the two sides could not reach each other, and the Zhao family was isolated and helpless in the court, so they dared not offend the Jiang family again.

Censor Lu sensed something was amiss and asked quietly, "What's going on with the interest?"

Looking at the Zhao family's dark faces, it seemed that Censor Lu had unintentionally become an accomplice.

Jiang Fulu shook his sleeves, revealed a shrewd smile and said, "Your brother-in-law wants to change his position. Do you think you can get it done just by talking?"

Although Jiang Fulu was the Minister of Personnel, he was not the only one in the Ministry of Personnel.

If you want to promote Li De, you need money to pave the way.

Censor Lu is incorruptible and extremely poor, and Li De is even poorer. How long can we expect these two to pool their money?

"Borrow money from the Jiang family, and we'll decide the interest."

Jiang Fulu patted Censor Lu on the shoulder and promised to have more food to eat if he followed him from now on.

Censor Lu nodded hesitantly, and it felt like a solid piece of his heart had collapsed.

The murderer of Jia Xinglin is assumed to be the doctor of the Jia family.

After the doctor committed suicide out of fear of punishment, Zhao Zhe was imprisoned in the Dali Temple.

No one mentioned the "Wei Jing" hidden in the case.

After Jia Xinglin's death, the nobles united and repeatedly caused trouble for Prime Minister Wei, making the Wei family extremely anxious.

After the incident, unexpectedly, Jiang Yuzhu's popularity quickly improved.

"Yuzhu, a lady asked me to ask you when the show starts on the first floor?"

The play about the Zhang family was previously very popular in Beijing, and fans are still eagerly waiting for the sequel.

Qiao Ying hadn't seen enough. She knew some inside stories, but opera and reality didn't necessarily follow the same path.

Jiang Yuzhu didn't mention anything about the follow-up, but smiled and said, "Wait a few days, the show will start again on the first floor."

The opportunity to make money has come again.

Wei Jing was not her enemy at all; she was simply here to give money to Jiang Yuzhu.

Just when he was worried about having no materials, Jia Xinglin was killed.

This time, Jiang Yuzhu plans to make Zhao Zhe, the unfortunate victim, more miserable, to establish his affectionate character and at least arouse people's sympathy.

Jiang Yuzhu had just slapped the Zhao family in the face and then stuffed a sweet date into their mouth.

After all, the two adults of the Zhao family serve in the same court as my father Jiang Fulu, and it would be troublesome to make too many enemies.

Yu Jiaojiao pursed her lips and smiled, "Yuzhu, don't try to start the show when the government office is on duty this time."

Otherwise, the last farce may happen again.

Jiang Yuzhu was thinking the same thing: "Learn from this lesson and start the show tonight."

First spread the word, then manipulate ticket prices to make money.

Jiang Yuzhu was thinking about it when she saw Han Zhen standing not far away, looking a little anxious.

"Go to the pavilion over there and wait for me."

Jiang Yuzhu first sent Qiao Ying and Yu Jiaojiao away, then instructed two maids to keep watch and asked, "Did something happen?"

This is the imperial palace, with thousands of eyes staring at us.

If it wasn't an emergency, Han Zhen would never take the risk to come here.

Han Zhen stepped forward and bowed, saying, "I have heard something that is related to Lord Xie."

"Before Prince Jia was assassinated, the secret room in Duke Mao's mansion was robbed. It is said that important letters were stolen and the person was shot in the arm."

When the nobles heard the news, they suspected that the person who broke into the secret room and stole things was the same person who assassinated Duke Mao.

Jiang Yuzhu plucked off a flower and said calmly, "So they suspect it's related to my husband?"

Han Zhen nodded silently.

Not only are they suspicious, the nobles have already begun to verify it.

"They boasted wildly and challenged Lord Xie to an archery competition."

After Jia Xinglin's death, the nobles became like frightened birds, trying desperately to protect themselves, and are now racking their brains to find the mastermind behind it.

Han Zhen had some suspicions in his mind, but he knew his limits and didn't ask directly. Instead, he said, "Master, the noble family may look like a puddle of mud, but they have complicated connections behind the scenes. Once they target us..."

At this time, you must not reveal the truth, otherwise you will face endless troubles and your life will be in danger.

Jiang Yuzhu lowered her eyes and suddenly smiled, "I understand."

"Han Zhen, you risked your life to deliver a letter. You will definitely go against the noble family in the future."

If Han Zhenruo was regarded as a traitor, he would be the first one that the nobles would not let go.

"Master, don't worry. I can still stay dormant."

Han Zhen didn't expect that at the critical moment, Jiang Yuzhu was still thinking about him, and his heart couldn't help but feel warm.
