I don't know when it started, the noisy crowd outside the public hall has quieted down, and Tang Shun, who looks inconspicuous and unimpressive, has become the focus of everyone.

Only Hua Jingyao, her eyes wandered on Tang Shun and Zhang Ruoxi's faces, it was the first time she saw Tang Shun, and it was also the first time she heard Tang Shun's confession.

After digging up the body in the forest yesterday, she once asked Zhang Twelve Shao to identify it to see if it was his fourth aunt. Zhang Twelve Shao vomited so much that he had no manners, and finally told her that when the fourth aunt died, he was not born yet!

Fortunately, Chang Sui Chunming, who is next to Zhang Twelve Shao, is a child of the family, and Chunming's mother used to be the second-class maid of Mrs. Zhang's second wife, and she followed Mrs. Zhang in and out, and she had seen Mrs. Zhang Si, who had been dead for many years.

Chun Ming's mother is married to the big steward in the Zhang family's shop, and she has been pampered all these years, so that the slave calls the maid, and is taken by Chun Ming to see the corpse, and she faints with fright just by looking at it, and finally wakes up, but she doesn't dare to look at it again.

However, Chun Mingniang told them one thing. Mrs. Zhang Si has already died twice, and later, Mrs. Zhang Si is pregnant with seven girls, and the female dependents of each room of the Zhang family are worried that this child will not be saved, and Mrs. Zhang Si also went to Guangji Temple to ask Mrs. Zhang Si for a peace charm.

Mrs. Zhang Er felt unwell when she came back from Guangji Temple, and invited the doctor to come over to diagnose the pulse, and she actually diagnosed the happy pulse, so she did not go over in person, and sent the housekeeper to bring Chun Mingniang to go over.

When they arrived at Willow Hutong, in addition to the amulet, they also brought a lot of supplements, and the grandmother next to Mrs. Zhang Si also prepared a return gift, and called the housekeeper to go over to talk, Chun Mingniang was waiting outside to be bored, and saw a cluster of bamboo planted around the corner, so she went over to look.

As soon as she walked over, she saw a mother-in-law standing there, the mother-in-law claimed to be a stable woman, and she happened to meet the stable woman of the Sun family.

Wen Po vomited bitterness, saying that her surname was Sun, and she was also a little famous in the capital, she knew that this was the case, and she didn't come to kill her, and now that everyone is here, she can't leave if she wants to, she just hopes to be able to do it smoothly.

Chun Mingniang knew that Mrs. Zhang Si was not in good health, and she had two babies in succession, and she thought that this stable woman regretted it because of this incident, so she didn't care about it, and forgot about it in an instant.

Later, Miss Zhang Qi was born smoothly on the spot, and she was still alive and well when Mrs. Zhang was about to give birth. Chun Ming Niang remembered that Wen Po came, so she talked to Mrs. Zhang Er about it, Mrs. Zhang's mother's family had already sent a stable woman, and heard Chun Ming Niang mention the Wen Po of the Sun family, so she asked people to please, her pregnancy was also quite unsmooth, if you can keep a safe, please have one more Wen Po is just a few more silver.

But the person who went came back soon, saying that the Sun family had stopped doing midwifery business half a year ago, and the family had left the capital and moved elsewhere.

Chun Mingniang remembers very clearly, after hearing this at that time, Mrs. Zhang Er also said: "Half a year ago? Wouldn't that be the fourth wife of our family who would stop doing it after delivering the baby? ”

No one mentioned this matter again, but at that time, Chun Mingniang muttered a little in her heart, she remembered what Wen Po had said to her, and wondered if it was Wen Po who offended the fourth master and four wives, so she couldn't do anything in this business? But it's clear that the seven girls are living well.

Now that she heard that the dead man was likely to be the original fourth wife, Chun Mingniang remembered this incident.

The Sun family is not a single family in the capital, their family is a stable woman, there are not many people who know them, Shi Bing found an elderly old stable woman in Ganshiqiao, and soon found out that the Sun family has a sixty-year-old aunt and grandmother in the capital, the old aunt and grandmother have not been a stable woman, and they have long been full of children and grandchildren, Shi Bing found her, and asked about her mother's family, the old aunt and grandmother cried, saying that the Sun family has been delivering babies for generations, and they must not deliver many children, but they can't keep their children.

Shi Bing asked where the Sun family had moved again, and the old aunt and grandmother only said that they had gone to Tongzhou, and every year during the Chinese New Year, Tang Shun would quietly return to the capital to pay New Year's greetings to her.

Hua Jingyao originally wanted Shi Bing to go to Tongzhou, but Hua Yukun volunteered, and Hua Jingyao was worried that her father was unfamiliar with life and couldn't find Tang Shun, so she asked him to go to the Liu family and ask the Liu family to help find it.

The Liu family is the maiden family of Chen Juren's other wife, the Liu family, and now the Liu family is the family, the Liu family is a big family in Tongzhou, and it is the head of the land, seeing Hua Yukun taking Tang Shun back to Beijing, Hua Jingyao knew that the Liu family must have helped, otherwise he would not have found Tang Shun so quickly.

Tang Shun's narration and Chun Mingniang's words were just connected together, and Hua Jingyao continued to listen with bated breath.

Tang Shun said: "The villain's daughter is only five years old, very well-behaved and obedient, I asked her to sleep at home and not run around, she will definitely not run around, not to mention that when I left that day, I didn't worry about her alone, and I locked the door." At that time, my head was blank, and I was stupid when I saw the corpse of my daughter, and I was stunned and motionless, and someone still said next to me that it was the adults in the family who had offended people and were retaliated against the children. That's when I came to my senses, my daughter wouldn't have fallen into the well for no reason, she was thrown into it! ”

Speaking of this, Tang Shun burst into tears: "I came to Shuntianfu with my daughter's corpse, but halfway through, I met my mother-in-law's second uncle, and the second uncle saw me is two slaps, which stunned me, and he was stunned when he saw the child I was carrying, and I knew that my aunt was dead, dead in the latrine, with finger marks on her neck, and she was strangled to death." Just yesterday, my sister-in-law said to my second uncle that she had used the secret recipe for my mother-in-law, and my second uncle complained that she shouldn't tell my mother-in-law that recipe, in case something happened, the Sun family couldn't afford to delay. Therefore, seeing that my aunt died, the second uncle came to my house to settle the account, and when I told me what happened, he said that this time he provoked someone who should not be provoked, and something really happened, I said that I wanted to report to the official, and the second uncle said that I would redeem my eldest son first, so we went to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and when we got there, I knew that as soon as I left, someone came over and paid the fine, and took my son out. ”

Hua Jingyao thought that Tang Shun came alone, and thought that his son might have an accident at that time, and sighed in her heart.

Sure enough, Tang Shun cried: "Where can my second uncle and I still care about going up to report the case, we ran home, opened the door and saw this letter, thinking that it was stuffed through the crack in the door." ”

As he spoke, Tang Shun trembled his hands and took out a letter from his arms, and the official presented the letter, and after reading it, he passed it to the eldest prince.
