Mrs. Zhu felt embarrassed by what Lan Ziye said.

The head of the Zhu family cleared his throat twice and said, "It's not that simple to put someone's name on the list. Besides, the person is no longer with us, so there's no need for these empty formalities!"

"That's right! When Zhu Fei was alive, she wasn't even acknowledged by Madam Zhu. She's been called her illegitimate daughter for over a decade. What's more, she's dead now?" Lan Ziye said with a forced smile, "It seems like Madam Zhu didn't love Zhu Fei that much!"

"Yes, even adopting her is better than having her be an illegitimate daughter!" Lan Rongrong echoed indignantly.

Mrs. Zhu was speechless and her face turned green with anger. If she was not afraid of offending Chu Xixuan, she would have kicked these three annoying girls out of the Zhu family long ago. No, she should have beaten them up and then kicked them out of the Zhu family.

Mrs. Zhu mentally prepared herself for a moment before finally controlling her emotions and preparing to open her mouth to argue. However, Lan Ziye's face had already darkened. He said seriously, "I don't want to know about the twists and turns of your Zhu family. I just want to know who killed Zhu Fei and who wants to frame Zhu Ning!"

After saying that, he looked up at the Zhu family's Patriarch and said, "Patriarch Zhu, I want to go to the crime scene and take a look. Oh, and please find the person who first discovered Zhu Fei's death. I want to ask him some questions!"

Madam Zhu suddenly became anxious. She stepped forward, stood in front of Lan Ziye, and said sternly, "Miss Lan, this is not the Lan family. Even if you are the fiancée of Mr. Chu, you have no right to meddle in other people's family affairs like this."

"This isn't someone else's family affair, it's my best friend's!" Lan Ziye said bluntly, "Mrs. Zhu loves Zhu Fei so much, she probably wouldn't want her to die in vain, right?"

Mrs. Zhu was once again speechless after being stunned for a moment, then she forced herself to say, "Even if that's the case, it's not your turn as a child to point fingers here!"

Lan Ziye was so angry that he laughed. She emphasized again, "I'm a friend of Zhu Ning and Zhu Fei, so I need to know everything about this matter, or..." Lan Ziye turned to look at the Zhu family's patriarch and said, "I need to ask Chu Xixuan to exercise the Chu family's privileges and convene a major meeting of the five major families to discuss your Zhu family's suspicion of the legitimate daughter killing the illegitimate daughter, and finally the legitimate daughter was sentenced to life imprisonment?"

The five major families have absolute power in the Lanxuan Continent. No matter what happens, there is no room for any judicial agency to intervene. If any major incident that cannot be resolved really occurs, the Chu family will take the lead and exercise the Chu family's privileges to convene a major meeting of the five major families to resolve it together.

This is a very serious situation. As long as such a meeting is held, it will not be a matter behind closed doors of the Zhu family. It will be a matter of the five major families, and at that time it will not be the Zhu family alone that will have the final say.

The key point is that it is too shameful to take an illegitimate daughter home and raise her as a legitimate daughter, not give her a status, and then let her die in unclear circumstances, and finally have a legitimate daughter to be buried with her!

The patriarch of the Zhu family twitched his lips, and said with embarrassment: "This is a bit of an overreaction!" After a pause, he said, "Well... if Miss Lan has any doubts, we must naturally check it out! Zhu Mu, take the three ladies to check out the third lady's room!" After that, he casually called a passing servant and gave an order.

After giving the order, he turned to look at Lan Ziye and said, "The one who found the body was Ning'er's wet nurse. She is still working in Ning'er's room. You can go find her directly!"
