Chapter 38: Who the heavens forgive?

As soon as Gu Qian's words came out, the hall suddenly became quiet.

The servants couldn't help laughing, and Liu Dazhuang's face turned into a pig's liver, "Why does the eldest master talk like this? What does the child in Zheng's belly have to do with me?"

"Does that have anything to do with your son?" Gu Qian asked rhetorically.

"This, this ......" Liu Dazhuang clenched his fists fiercely, "It has nothing to do with my son Liu Kang." โ€

"Zheng, tell me yourself. Gu Qian sat in the hall and asked with a kind face.

Zheng raised his head slightly, and when he saw the county master who looked like a smiling tiger, he was nervous, and his head immediately drooped, not daring to say anything.

"You โ–กโ–ก! Do you have to be sentenced to confess?"

"Master Mingjian, the child in the belly of the slave family is the deceased husband Liu Xiaoqi!" Zheng saw that the servants took out the wooden sticks, and they were scared, and their bodies trembled.

"Someone! Take Li Tianshu and Luo Langzhong!"

"Yes!"

Li Tianshu and Luo Langzhong, who were waiting outside the hall, soon came to the lobby, they kowtowed to Gu Qian, and knelt on the side honestly, Zheng and Liu Dazhuang saw Lao Li go up, his mouth was wide open, and he was very frightened.

"Under the hall, is it Li Tianshu in the Tulang of Green Willow Village?"

"Little Lao'er exactly. โ€

"Let me ask you, how do you prove that Liu Xiaoqi's essence water is thin and can't have children?"

Li Tianshu didn't look at Liu Dazhuang or Zheng, but said loudly: "Back to the old man, Xiao Qi was weak when he was a child, and he has been grabbing some local medicine to eat at my house. When Lao Li Tou said this, he paused, and turned his head to look at Luo Langzhong next to him, "It was this Luo Langzhong who gave Xiao Qi a look." โ€

"Luo Langzhong, is what Li Tianshu said true?"

"Back to the old man's words, it's true. Luo Langzhong knelt in the hall and said loudly: "Liu Xiaoqi has been conditioning according to my recipe for half a year, and although he can have sex after that, the essence is thin, and the heir must be conditioned at least until he is twenty-five years old before he can give it a try." โ€

"You are talking nonsense, Xiao Qi, he can have sex!" Zheng knelt on the ground and said sharply.

"The old man has been treating Liu Xiaoqi for many years, don't you know his details?" his professional knowledge was questioned, and Luo Langzhong was also more energetic, "Since you are Liu Xiaoqi's Hun family, don't you know that he can only have sex three times a month, and the essence water is thin, like white water?"

"You, you, you......"

"This is my method of suing him to consolidate the foundation and cultivate the yuan, and only after raising it for five or six years, and the essence water is viscous, can I have the opportunity to leave an heir. Luo Langzhong looked at Zheng, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, "If I'm not mistaken, Liu Xiaoqi is only twenty-three this year, he is not solid, where is the child?"

Zheng listened to him and sat down on the ground with his stomach clutched.

"Zheng, what do you say?" Gu Qian asked sharply.

Zheng lowered his head and couldn't say a word.

"Zheng, you recruited from the truth, whose child is it?"

"Slave, slave...... Slave ......"

"Zheng, don't be lucky, you can not say it now, the official can also keep the adulterer's life, but when the child is born, the official can give your child blood in front of the whole village!"

Boom! Zheng Shi was like being struck by lightning, she suddenly raised her head, her eyes were full of despair, she stared at Gu Qian deadly, her curled fingers pinched into her palm fiercely, the pain slightly recalled her senses, seeing Gu Qian looking at herself expressionlessly, Zheng Shi lowered her head again.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Gu Qian's mind turned and he said loudly: "Come on, take Liu Kang over the hall!"

After a while, Liu Kang came up, he glanced at Gu Qian weakly, kowtowed honestly, and said, "The grass people have seen the big master." โ€

"Liu Kang, do you know why the official asked you to come to the court?"

"This ......," Liu Kang hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's to buy gunpowder for my father." โ€

"You're wrong," Gu Qian smiled slightly, and said, "The official called you here to ask you, do you know that the Zheng family is pregnant?"

"Huh?" Liu Kang was taken aback, and then pretended to be stupid and said, "This is not about the villain!"

"Duan Liu, your daughter-in-law is pregnant with a child!" Gu Qian suddenly said something that was untouchable, and a servant next to him was so shocked that his mouth grew, "Really?"

"Fake. Gu Qian turned his head back, looked at Liu Kang with a smile, and said, "It seems that you already knew that Zheng was pregnant." โ€

Seeing Zheng holding his stomach on the side, Liu Kang couldn't bear to turn his head, "Please master Mingjian, the villain of the seventh sister-in-law's pregnancy really doesn't know!"

"What about this!" Gu Qian threw down the sweat towel again, pointed to the vague Kang character on the Songhua green sweat towel, and said sharply: "Is this your sweat towel?"

Liu Kang glanced forward, speechless.

"Yes and no?"

"Like...... Be. โ€

"It seems that if you don't teach you a lesson, you won't confess honestly, and you will be punished!"

"Might-โ€”โ€”! Martial Arts" The servants aggressively knocked on the water and fire sticks, Liu Kang was forked up at that time, and when he saw that the eldest master was going to move seriously, Liu Kang hurriedly said loudly: "I move, I move, that sweat towel is mine!"

Gu Qian glanced at him coldly and said, "Put it down!"

The servants put the people down, and Liu Kang exhaled, raised his sleeve and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"You said this sweat towel is yours?"

"Yes, it's the villain. Liu Kangfu lowered his body, and he didn't dare to gasp.

"Then do you know that this sweat towel was found in the kang cave where Liu Xiaoqi was bombed?"

"What?!" Liu Kang suddenly raised his head and said loudly, "This can't be!"

"Impossible?" Gu Qian sneered: "Then tell me how you lost this sweat towel?"

"The villain doesn't know," Liu Kang rolled his eyes and said slyly: "Maybe the villain's mother was blown away by the wind when she was washing clothes?"

"And then it went to Liu Xiaoqi's house with a scrape?" Gu Qian was amused by him, "You can still think about it." โ€

Liu Kang laughed dryly twice.

"It seems that this official is still too kind!" Gu Qian smiled and suddenly changed his face, "Where is the errand?"

"The subordinates are here!"

"Torture!"

"No!"

The messenger picked up the water and fire sticks, and the two of them worked together to fork Liu Kang up, Liu Kang saw that Gu Qian was going to come to the real thing, and hurriedly shouted loudly: "I recruit, I recruit, this sweat towel was left on Liu Xiaoqi's house!"

Gu Qian scolded the slut in his heart for being hypocritical, and said with a cold face: "First hit him with ten boards, otherwise he will not be honest." As he spoke, he said to the errand officer who was carrying Liu Kang: "Remember, fight with your heart." โ€

"No!"

The servants forked Liu Kang into the courtyard, and the sound of popping the floor accompanied by Liu Kang's wailing came into the lobby, Liu Dazhuang inhaled in distress, and Zheng kept wiping away tears. Gu Qian looked at their cousins coldly in the hall, and secretly had a plan in his heart.

After the ten boards were beaten, Liu Kang's buttocks were swollen as high as the sky, he kept moaning in pain, and was dragged in like a dead dog by the servants.

"How?

"The villain figured it out. Liu Kang has suffered such a crime since he was a child, he lay on the ground, and said with tears in his eyes: "The villain was confused for a while, and he coveted the seventh sister-in-law, and this sweat towel was dropped when I sneaked to Liu's house." โ€

"So, you have an affair with the Zheng family?"

The villain coveted the seventh sister-in-law, but the seventh sister-in-law was a chaste martyr and did not submit to me. โ€

"So the child in Zheng's womb has nothing to do with you?"

Liu Kang lay on the ground and swore an oath: "It has nothing to do." โ€

"Then do you know that Liu Xiaoqi's thin essence water can't cause a woman to get pregnant?" Gu Qian looked at him coldly and said, "Zheng's child is not Liu Xiaoqi's, and you said that it is not yours, so can you tell me whose child it is?"

"This, this ......" Liu Kang was anxious and looked at his father.

Liu Dazhuang felt sorry for his son, for fear that Liu Kang would be punished by the county magistrate, he bit his teeth, his heart was horizontal, and he said loudly: "Back to the old man, the child in Zheng's belly, yes, yes...... Old man mine. โ€

The hall was extremely quiet for a while, and as Liu Dazhuang placed the child on his head, Zheng's eyes were fixed on him in disbelief.

Liu Kang looked at his father and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Zheng, can you plead guilty to adultery with Liu Dazhuang, secretly tying the knot, and killing your husband Liu Xiaoqi?" Gu Qian looked at Zheng and said coldly.

Zheng still didn't come back from the shock, seeing that she didn't speak, Liu Dazhuang said sharply: "Zheng, you and I have been adulterous for half a year, and I have confessed to the old man, what are you hesitating about?!"

Zheng's body was crumbling, and before Liu Dazhuang could say anything, he saw that Liu Kang also said: "Seventh sister-in-law, you can admit it!"

Looking at Liu Dazhuang with a threatening face, and looking at Liu Kang with a begging face, Zheng suddenly laughed, "Ahahaha! Retribution, retribution! God, why do you treat me like this!"

"Zheng, don't you invite it truthfully!" Gu Qian shouted.

"Back to the eldest master, the child in my belly is ......" Zheng paused, swept over the scorching eyes of the Liu father and son, and whispered: "It's Liu Kang's!"

"You talk nonsense!"

Liu's father and son retorted in unison, and Liu Dazhuang even rushed over angrily and slapped Zheng's, "The child is obviously mine, why are you slandering my son?"

"Is it yours?" Zheng looked at Liu Dazhuang and said mockingly: "You went up the mountain to chop wood the year before last and was bitten by a snake on the thigh, so you can't be humane for a long time, right?"

"You, you, you......" A flash of horror flashed in Liu Dazhuang's eyes, "You are talking nonsense!"

"Whether it's true or not, please check it out. โ€

Gu Qian's expression moved, and he gave Duan Wenrui a look, Duan Wenrui understood, and ordered two errand servants to pull Liu Dazhuang down.

After a long while, Duan Wenrui finished checking the turn, Liu Dazhuang's leg did have two old scars in the shape of tooth marks, taking advantage of the two Lang Zhong in the field, the errand also took the opportunity to pour Liu Dazhuang a bowl of aphrodisiac, but he didn't expect the medicine to be poured down, Liu Dazhuang's thing couldn't stand up.

Duan Wenrui came to the hall and said loudly: "Master Qiyu, Liu Dazhuang is indeed inhumane. โ€

This sentence was like a sharp whip, which made Liu Dazhuang's face blue and white for a while, he knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Even if the villain has a hidden disease, it does not prove that the child is my Liu family." As he spoke, he glanced at the Zheng family viciously and said, "Zheng Xiaoniang, you honestly recruit adulterers to the eldest master, don't ruin the name of my Liu family!"

Liu Kang saw that Zheng's expression kept changing, and seemed to be aroused by Liu Dazhuang's anger, and couldn't help but whisper: "Sister-in-law, think about it carefully, is there something missing." โ€

Zheng listened to the words of Liu's father and son, and her suppressed feelings finally collapsed, she glanced at Liu Kang, and tears flowed down her eyes, "Master, the child in my belly is Liu Kang's!

"You're talking nonsense!" Liu Dazhuang wanted to stop him, but he was kicked hard by the messenger next to him, "Silence!"

Zheng cried whining, as if she wanted to cry out the grievances in her heart, she said while crying: "The child is indeed Liu Kang's, if you don't believe it, the eldest man can verify that Liu Kang has a palm-sized cyan birthmark on his buttocks, and there is a soybean-sized red mole on his stomach near his navel." โ€

"Duan Wenrui, undress Liu Kang for verification!"

Liu Kang's buttocks were already swollen, and he took off the clothes covering his buttocks, and the cyan birthmark clearly came into everyone's eyes, turning over and tearing off the front shirt, and the red mole above the navel was indeed as Zheng said, he could be so familiar with the body of a foreign man, and the โ–กโ–ก between the two was of course self-evident.

The Zheng family confessed, and the Liu father and son couldn't stand it. As the interrogation progressed, the case gradually came to light.

It turned out that after the Zheng family and Liu Xiaoqi got married, Liu Xiaoqi had not been very good in that matter, and the Zheng family had resentment in his heart, but Liu Xiaoqi had no other praise or disapproval except for this matter, so the Zheng family endured it. But the spring boudoir is lonely, and Liu Xiaoqi often goes up the mountain to chop firewood and collect medicine, which gives opportunities to those disciples who covet Zheng's beauty, and Liu Kang is one of them.

Liu Kang is handsome, has a sweet mouth, and is more knowledgeable than the honest Liu Xiaoqi, and he is an apprentice in the county, and every time he goes home, he brings Zheng a handkerchief or colorful silk thread and other things that women like, Zheng can still keep it, but with Liu Kang's further seduction, it gradually let go.

After achieving the โ–กโ–ก, the two were very hot for a while, and Liu Dazhuang was aware of this, but he doted on his son since he was a child, and he revealed it after two sentences. Seeing that the adults in the family didn't care, Zheng and Liu Kang became more and more arrogant, Liu Kang specially set up a ladder at the wall of the house, and every time he went home, he took advantage of Liu Xiaoqi's kung fu to go up the mountain to achieve good things with Zheng.

After a long time, Liu Xiaoqi seemed to be aware, but there was no tangible evidence, until one day, Zheng couldn't help but run out and retch while eating breakfast, he changed his face and asked Zheng who this child was! Zheng immediately cried, saying that it was his own flesh and blood, seeing Zheng's sworn appearance, Liu Xiaoqi was angry, but he endured it stubbornly.

After this incident, Zheng and Liu Kang were very separated for a while, but Zheng was pregnant, and it should be Liu Kang's child according to the date, where can these two men and women who are in love with โ–กโ–ก keep it, and Zheng will also inform Liu Kang of the good news, so while Liu Xiaoqi went up the mountain to chop wood, Zheng left a mark for Liu Kang and asked him to come over and talk about it.

The two of them were warming up on the kang, Liu Xiaoqi, who was out, suddenly turned around, and took the two of them on the spot to ask for the guilt, Liu Xiaoqi was angry, Liu Kang and Zheng naturally knelt on the ground to ask for guilt, but Liu Xiaoqi didn't give the two of them a chance at all, and shouted that they wanted to take the two of them to see the official. Liu Kang saw that the situation was not good, so he picked up the porcelain pillow and knocked it on Liu Xiaoqi's head in a hurry.

Liu Xiaoqi fainted and fell to the ground, Zheng was so panicked that he had no master, pulled Liu Kang's sleeve and asked what to do, Liu Kang had no idea, moved Liu Xiaoqi to the kang, and went home to find his father.

"This man can't stay. Liu Dazhuang knew that something bad was wrong as soon as he heard it, but in order to choose Liu Kang out, and for the sake of the child in Zheng's belly, Liu Dazhuang gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly: "We must do our best!"

Liu Kang also panicked, and said in a trembling voice: "What should I do?"

Liu Dazhuang didn't have any good way, but looking at the gradually gloomy sky, and thinking of the legend of the thunder that he had heard when he was a child, his brain moved and he thought about it.

So, he asked Zheng to pack up his baggage and go to his mother's house to hide, and ordered Liu Kang to go to the city to buy gunpowder, while he stayed by Liu Xiaoqi's side to prevent him from waking up.

After a sleepless night, Liu Kang finally rushed back from the county seat, taking advantage of Liu Xiaoqi's coma, the father and son took turns to work, and finally dug the kang hole connecting the Liu family before the storm came.

"Alright, pull the fuse over. Liu Dazhuang wiped his sweat and said in a low voice.

"Good. Liu Kang drilled into the kang hole, pulled out the fuse, the father and son swallowed nervously, glanced at each other, and took the candle and lit the fuse leading to Liu Xiaoqi's house.

Dark clouds filled the sky, the wind was blowing, lightning and thunder were roaring, and the Liu father and son hid in their western room, nervously waiting for the gunpowder to explode.

As they expected, before a stick of incense work, there was a shocking explosion in the west wing of Liu Xiaoqi's house, and the sound of the explosion shook Liu Dazhuang's house, and Liu Kang couldn't stand still, and said in a trembling voice: "If you put too much gunpowder, will it blow up our house?"

"Shut up!" Liu Dazhuang glared at his son, nervously leaning against the wall, waiting for the shockwave to pass.

Under the planning of Liu's father and son, the unconscious Liu Xiaoqi was blown up to a blur of flesh and blood, and his soul flew out of the sky when he landed. Liu Dazhuang didn't dare to go over to look, and waited until dawn before letting Liu Kang quietly climb to Liu Xiaoqi's house to confirm Liu Xiaoqi's death. Seeing that Liu Xiaoqi was already dead, Liu Dazhuang breathed a sigh of relief, dressed Liu Kang up with makeup, and asked him to hurry back to the county seat and make an alibi. Then, he sent a letter to Zheng and told her to turn back immediately.

Next, it was Liu Dazhuang who went to Yang Cunli to report the dead people in the village. I thought that Yang Lizheng would not care about these idle things, since it was a thunderstorm that killed people, it was enough to enter the ground early for peace. Unexpectedly, Yang Cunli had long wanted to tie up with the new county magistrate but had no way, and the case reported by Liu Dazhuang happened to become Yang Lizheng's stepping stone.

The case was tried here, and the truth was finally revealed.

Gu Qian looked at the three men and women in the hall, and asked loudly: "Liu Dazhuang, Liu Kang, Liu Zheng, can you three be guilty?"
