"This..." Su Mingyue frowned, her eyes full of confusion.

What she was afraid of was that the Sun family would come and cause trouble, so why did Case Leader Song let her come forward?

"Human murder, robbery, and adultery are the three most serious crimes. Any complaint like this must be accepted by the government. Otherwise, it would be dereliction of duty. Furthermore, the county magistrate will personally conduct the trial!"

Su Mingyue's eyes lit up, she understood that Chief Justice Song wanted to bring the case to the county government, or at least to initiate a lawsuit, which would involve a dispute over property.

She asked again, "Didn't you say that widows can't inherit property?"

“This is just the first step.”

Song Chi added, "Next we have to find a way to win the lawsuit... but you have to listen to me."

"I'll do whatever you say."

Su Mingyue finally understood the value of being the first in the county case. It was not comparable to those counterfeit goods at the gate of the county government office.

"I have another question."

"I will tell you everything I know." Su Mingyue obeyed.

"Does Sun Jiye have any thoughts about you?"

"This..." Su Mingyue didn't understand why Case Leader Song always asked these questions, and was so explicit. This wasn't just nonsense...

"Yeah?"

Although Su Mingyue did not respond, Song Chi already got the answer.

Sun Jiye was probably about the same age as him, at the age when he was full of lust. With such a pretty girl by his side, even if he didn't have the desire, he would have the courage to do it.

"The Sun family has been giving you trouble, right?"

"yes."

Su Mingyue replied, "I just moved into this house today. They don't know about it yet, but they will find it soon."

"You want them to come here, and it would be best if they took some extreme action..."

"Let them be suspected of robbery?"

"It's more than that."

Song Chi said directly: "And they are still willing to take human life so lightly? After all, this is a family matter, so how can it be necessary to kill people?"

"I see."

Su Mingyue understood immediately. "I know how to irritate them."

"Then we need to find witnesses. Don't you have money? Find some people to come when they do something evil..."

"clear."

Su Mingyue asked, "I just need to let others know that I'm a victim, right?"

"right!"

"You need others to sympathize with you. Your husband is dead, and there's no one to make the decision. Anyone can bully you... You don't have to be forceful. Just wear mourning clothes and cry. That'll earn your sympathy, understand?"

"Understand."

Communicating with smart people saves effort.

"So what's next?"

"The next step is to agree to the adoption."

Song Chi said, "Then it's time to use the honey trap... You don't have to say it explicitly to give them this illusion."

"I don't quite... understand." Su Mingyue felt that her brain was a little slow to catch up. She had to admit that this county's top judge did not fit the image of a scholar in her imagination at all. She always felt that he was teasing her, but she had no evidence.

"Think about it, Sun Jiye is your stepson, and Sun Lao Da is Sun Jiye's biological father... They both like you and want to take you for themselves. How can this be justified?"

Su Mingyue was stunned. This county's top judge was too dirty.

"You're better at controlling men than I am, so I don't need to teach you..."

Song Chi said in a deep voice: "I am writing a petition now and I want to complete these tasks within three days."

Su Mingyue wanted to say something, but seeing Song Chi's serious expression, she didn't say it.

"As long as you listen to me, this case will definitely succeed."

"I...I'll listen to Case Chief Song."

Su Mingyue gritted her teeth and agreed.

"By the way... I heard that Madam Su, you have quite a few properties?"

"Yes, as long as I win the lawsuit, it will be mine."

"Um..." Song Chi asked, "Do you have a house for rent? I don't have a place to stay right now, so I'm looking to rent a place. It doesn't have to be too nice, just a place to stay. You can deduct the rent from the commission you give me."

Su Mingyue was stunned for a moment, "Case Chief Song is really taking advantage of every opportunity."

"What do you mean by taking advantage of every opportunity?"

Song Chi's face remained calm and his heart remained steady. "Isn't this a coincidence?"

"I have a house on Tongyue Road. Mr. Song can live there temporarily. As for the rent, we'll discuss it after we win the lawsuit."

"Then I'll trouble you, Madam Su."

Song Chi accepted it directly.

There was no other way. Even a penny could make a hero fall. Originally, Chen Liangyu gave him fifty taels as living expenses, but he gave it to his cousin Su Nanyi as start-up capital. Now he is penniless.

"As long as we can win the lawsuit, it doesn't matter."

“It’s packaged.”

Song Chi took a sip of tea and was very confident.

He was very satisfied. This case achieved multiple goals at once. He could deal with the Sun family and find a house to live in.

…

The Sun family was originally a wealthy family in Ji County. Old man Sun passed the imperial examination and became a scholar in his early years. He was known as Mr. Sun. It was not until the second daughter of the Sun family came to the Han family and became Han Yu's concubine that he began to become famous.

With the support of the Han family, they have a lot of land, properties, and many shops, and now they have become a big family in Ji County!

This is the strength of the Han family. Whoever they want to support can rise up immediately.

Several people sat down in the Sun family's hall. The eldest son of the Sun family, Sun Cheng, sat in the main seat. Mr. Sun was already old, and the third son, Sun, had gotten into trouble again, so the eldest son was the one in charge.

Sitting next to him was a woman, heavily made-up and very charming. Her name was Sun Fang, and she was a concubine married into the Han family. Obviously, because of this relationship, she had a lot of say in the Sun family.

"That bitch actually dared to covet my Sun family's property. How audacious!"

Sun Fang's phoenix eyes showed her dominance when she glared, which was the confidence given by her husband's family.
