In Ci'an Courtyard, Madam Zhou also had a sleepless night. Every family has its own secret backyard. She did not believe in ghosts and gods, but what happened in recent days did make her panic. What went wrong?

She opened her eyes and was thinking!

Lin Momo stood aside. She had watched Zhou grow up since she was a child. She was not only Zhou's wet nurse, but also her upbringing Momo. She couldn't help but said, "Madam, don't work too hard. Go to bed early!"

Mrs. Zhou's voice sounded a little tired: "Momo, did that bitch really turn into a ghost and come for revenge?"

Lin Momo shook her head: "Madam, I think someone must be playing tricks!"

Madam Zhou narrowed her eyes and said, "We must find Fei Shang and find the man who is playing tricks on us!"

-----

Early in the morning, five yamen runners entered the general's residence. It was said that they were here to summon the general's wife and eldest daughter Yang Rongxin!

Mrs. Zhou had not slept all night and had a gloomy look on her face. When she learned that runners from the Criminal Court had come to her house, a bad premonition came to her mind. She dressed hurriedly, left Ci'an Courtyard and walked towards the hall!

In the hall, several yamen runners with swords were sitting at the bottom, led by Xue Lin, the chief constable from the Criminal Justice Yamen!

Xue Lin bowed to Madam Zhou and said, "Madam Zhou, someone came to the Criminal Court last night to surrender himself. Madam Zhou and Miss Yang Rongxin are involved. I hope Madam Zhou and Miss Yang Rongxin will go to the Criminal Court!"

Madam Zhou's eyebrows jumped: "May I ask Captain Xue, who is the one who surrendered himself?"

Xue Lin said solemnly: "This is your housekeeper Fei's son Fei Shang!"

Madam Zhou picked up a cup of tea on the table, took a sip, and spent the whole night looking for Fei Shang. It turned out that this idiot had gone to the Criminal Court. Fei Shang was not dead, so she would find a way to catch the ghost behind the scenes!

Madam Zhou raised her eyes and asked, "What did Fei Shang say?"

Xue Lin said: "Your Madam Liu was sentenced to death for adultery!"

Mrs. Zhou placed the teacup in her hand heavily on the table with a "bang" sound, and the unfinished tea in the teacup splashed out and spilled outside!

Madam Zhou narrowed her eyes and said in a cold voice, "The matter of Aunt Liu is a matter of the backyard of my general's mansion. Moreover, the evidence of adultery is irrefutable. As the mistress of the house, I have the right to punish him. There is no need to use the Xingzhao Yamen! Fei Shang is a servant of my general's mansion. I hope the Xingzhao Yamen will send him back to me!"

Xue Lin frowned and said, "Madam Zhou, Fei Shang has surrendered himself to the Criminal Court. Once he has entered the door of the Criminal Court and submitted the petition, the Criminal Court will have no choice but to take over the case. I hope Madam will not embarrass us and come with us!"

Mrs. Zhou's face was gloomy and she glanced at Lin Momo beside her!

Lin Momo nodded and walked out!

Madam Zhou snorted and said in a deep voice, "If that's the case, then I'll give you a favor and go listen to what that dog slave has to say!"

A trace of displeasure flashed across Xue Lin's face: "Mrs. Zhou and Miss, please move aside!"

Madam Zhou laughed contemptuously and said, "My daughter, the eldest daughter of the general's mansion, is still a precious woman, and you want her to go to the Criminal Court? Otherwise, Xue Lin, go to the Fourth Prince's mansion and ask him if he agrees or not?"

Xue Lin was silent. This Madam Zhou was so unreasonable that she even used the Fourth Prince to threaten him!

He had already heard that the Fourth Prince had his eyes on the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion!

After hesitating for a long time, he sighed slightly. Whatever, he was just a captain of police and could only bow to the power: "Then please ask Madam Zhou to go!"
