Chapter 52: The Plan for Adjusting Contracts

After Orchid finished accusing, she turned her head and shouted at Zhou Lingshu, "My lord, the people are wronged, Lord Qingtian, you have to be the master of the people's women!" ”

Zhou Lingshu didn't startle the wooden shot, there was a loud entourage beside him, shouting "silence", Orchid was hoarse by a voice, and didn't dare to make another time.

Zhou Lingshu asked unhurriedly, "This case is now clear, as long as these people are brought back for a good trial, it can still be tried clearly." Jian Yanzuo, I heard that there is also a mother-and-child case, you go on! ”

In fact, Zhou Lingshu may have misunderstood Jianqing's meaning. Aunt Xiu is indeed suspected of poisoning, as long as she is tortured, she can recruit her. But coerced confessions are not the style of a simple investigation.

However, the mother-and-child case is related to this case, and Jian Qing also decided to be good and make the mother-and-child case clear, and the case of Li Shi's murder was also revealed.

Jian Qing gave up a little position, "My lord, in the case of the murder of Li Zhang and the baby girl, I still need to let Wen Po Huang say a prelude first." ”

"Speak!"

Wen Po Huang took two steps forward on her knees, "My lord, the folk woman was brought to the county government five days ago by a mother-in-law in front of the county lord's wife, Wang, saying that the lady was going to give birth, so she asked the woman to deliver the baby and gave ten taels of silver. The woman stayed in the county government for three days, and on the night of the fourth day, she was suddenly thrown into prison. ”

"Wen Po Huang, I have a question to ask." Concise and clear.

"Ask, as long as I know, I'll say it."

"In three days, have you seen the Wang family? As far as I know, if you want to give birth to a child, a few days in advance, Wen Po should come to see if the fetal position is correct, is it good to give birth? ”

Zhou Lingshu didn't expect that Jian Qing, as a little puppet, was so experienced, and for a while, he had to revisit this little puppet with clear thinking, and the outstanding ability was not what she should have at her age.

"No, this is exactly what the women are puzzled about." Wen Po Huang kowtowed to Zhou Lingshu again, "My lord, please be the master of the people's wife!" ”

Zhou Lingshu of the Qing Dynasty arched his hand and said, "My lord, on the sixth day of the first month, Li Shi was poisoned. Early in the morning on the seventh day of the first lunar month, the little one went to Li Shi's house to send the funeral, and his mother-in-law told the little one that Li Zhang was more than eight months pregnant. Because the small one saw that Li Zhang's had not yet entered the basin, the small one believed it to be true. But in the evening, the little one met Li Zhang's at the door of Baoning Hall, when she had just gone out for consultation in Baoning Hall, and the little one went in and asked the doctor who was sitting in the hall, only to know that Li Zhang's had been more than nine months old and could give birth at any time. ”

In this regard, Xiao has two questions, one is that Li Zhang's is obviously more than nine months pregnant, but the mother-in-law who serves her says that she is only more than eight months old, why is this? Second, Li Zhang's child has not been in the basin for more than nine months, and his physical condition is good, which can only explain one problem, the child's head is too big to enter the basin, but the baby girl who is said to have been born to Li Zhang's is only three or four pounds in weight, and it is clearly not full-term. There's a lot going on here! ”

"Tell me what you think!"

For the first question, Li Zhang concealed the size of the child, and the reason why he has always done this is only one purpose, that is, the child is not Li Shi's. The little one inquired that Li Shi had gone on a long trip nine months ago, and the county government could check the records of this. It was at that time that Li Zhang's child was conceived. ”

After Jian Qing finished speaking, Jiang Zhonglin's face turned blue and white for a while, Zhou Lingshu was silent when he saw this, and nodded, "You go on!" ”

"I heard that I went to Guangling County to help hunt down the robbers, but I didn't return." Jian Qingdao, "When Li Zhang's family was in labor, he had not yet entered the basin, and the child born was less than four catties, which is really abnormal. This can only show that this baby girl is clearly not Li Zhang's. My lord, please pass on the mother-in-law of the Li Shi family to ask. ”

"Bring it on!"

This time, Zhou Lingshu came and brought fifty soldiers, and soon, the mother-in-law of the Li family was brought in, with a pale face, and glared at Jian Qing fiercely.

"It's not a real recruit yet!" Zhou Lingshu's voice was full of majesty.

"Adult, the little one is really wronged!" Wen Pozi howled.

Zhou Lingshu naturally ignored this mother-in-law, the surrounding soldiers were about to torture Wen Pozi, Jian Qing was a little panicked, but she was too worried, where could Wen Pozi withstand the criminal law, and hurriedly shouted, "The child born by Mrs. was taken away!" ”

"Who took it away?" Zhou Lingshu was surprised.

"No, I don't know!" Mrs. Wen was afraid of being punished, "The woman didn't know who it was, so she broke in two mothers-in-law, picked up the child and left, walking through the door of the ear room, walking from the backyard, no one saw it." ”

"Where did the baby girl come from?"

"They, they took my wife's children away. The child, as soon as the woman opened the swaddling clothes, she saw that it was a lifeless one, but the wife suffered another difficult birth, and two people died at once, and the woman was frightened and quickly reported the case. ”

When Jian Qing heard her say this, she suddenly realized, no wonder she was incoherent at the beginning and said that the child was suffocating in Li Zhang's stomach, and as soon as he landed, he ran out of breath.

Whoever encounters this situation will lie and leave their responsibilities behind. Li Zhang's pregnancy time is wrong, Wen Pozi actually didn't know, it can be seen from this incident that Wen Pozi should not have participated in exchanging the dead baby for Li Zhang's child.

Zhou Lingshu had already heard the clue, and turned to Jiang Zhonglin, "Lord Jiang, is it true or false that Mrs. Guifu gave birth to Lin'er?" ”

In the inner courtyard of the county government, Wang wore a forehead handkerchief and held his son in his arms, coaxing constantly. The child is ignorant, and after eating and drinking enough, he closes his eyes and falls asleep. Wang wanted to tease him for a while, but he always didn't open his eyes, and after hugging him for a while, he was a little heavy, and she handed her son to the nurse.

The mother-in-law, Qian, came in and happened to be staggered by the nurse. She glanced at the child, unimpressed.

"How's it going out there?" Wang picked up the teacup in his hand and took a sip.

There was no one in the house, and Qian said in a low voice, "There are people from Datong Mansion, and they are coming to the inn." The old slave had already said that the little servant couldn't stay, and the little servant talked nonsense in front of the new pusher, and the pusher actually listened to some of it. ”

Wang raised his eyelids, "What did she say?" ”

She said that the child under Li Zhang's was not Li Zhang's. However, they also got Wen Po Huang out, and now they suspect that Madam, you are pregnant and have a child. ”

With a bang, the teacup in Wang's hand fell down and shattered. The maid Hongdou outside heard the movement, and when she arrived at the door, she was scolded by the Qian family.

Wang knew that he was scared, "What should I do?" ”

At this time, Qian didn't know what to do, but she couldn't mess around, "Mrs. don't worry, everything must pay attention to evidence, that little trick is just speculation, if she has no evidence, it is useless to let her say it in a mess." ”

"Whether I am pregnant or not and have children, it is clear when I check. What's more, there is still one in this house that has not been dealt with, and sooner or later it will be a scourge. ”

The maid outside the door, Hongdou, listened attentively for a while, and then tiptoed out. When she reached the door, she gently closed the door, and the two maids standing by the door saw this, because they were accustomed to always whispering, smiled at the sister in the house, and quietly retreated.
