Back to ancient times selling biscuits

As soon as Ma Liu left, Zhen Qingming thought for a moment and asked the yamen servants to look for the blacksmith shop owner and the city gate guards, and then ordered Donglai Dongbao to go to various grocery stores to find out if anyone who looked like Ding Dazhuang came to buy Flint half a month ago .

After a while, he interrogated Ding Dazhuang again. Seeing that he gritted his teeth and refused to tell the truth, County Magistrate Zhen said angrily, "I really think you can't sentence you unless you tell me? Ding Dazhuang, I will give you one last chance!"

"The villain is wronged." He was beaten so hard by the merciless yamen servants that he couldn't straighten up, lying on the ground and still talking stiffly.

"The official will tell you for you." Zhen Qingming cleared his throat, "on the afternoon of March [-]th, after you came out of the blacksmith's shop, you rushed home with iron nails. The person who knocked you ran away without saying a word, and you were so angry that you followed.

"Follow the other party to the grove by the river, and when you see that the person meeting the other party is a woman, you mistakenly think that they are in seclusion for a while, and subconsciously find a place to hide. At this moment, you hear the other party call the woman Mrs. Zhao, Then Mrs. Zhao said that she was pregnant and that Ding Qiuhua would never want to enter Zhao's residence in this life. You suddenly found out that this woman is Zhao Yuanwai's wife.

"So, you don't stop at nothing, just use the iron nail in your hand to kill Mrs. Zhao. In this way, Ding Qiuhua will not only be able to enter Zhao's mansion safely, but Zhao Yuanwai will not treat her badly no matter whether she gives birth to a man or a woman. Is what I said right?" Zhen Qingming kept staring at Ding Dazhuang, and found that he moved when he said "Mrs. Zhao is pregnant", and made up his mind that even if Ding Dazhuang didn't recruit, he would beat him and press his fingerprints.

"The villain doesn't know what the adults are talking about." Ding Dazhuang found that the county magistrate was right, and couldn't help becoming nervous, "If the villain knows that Mrs. Zhao is pregnant, it is absolutely impossible for Qiuhua to marry Zhao Yuanwai, let alone kill her." Mrs. Zhao asked Qiuhua to marry her!"

"Yes!" Zhen Qingming chuckled, half of what he said just now was nonsense, "It was true that the deceased was not pregnant when you wanted to climb up Zhao Yuanwai. But you concealed the fact that Ding Qiuhua was engaged, how would one daughter and Xu's family explain it?" Before he could open his mouth, Zhen Qingming said, "Don't worry, I haven't finished yet. On the morning of Mrs. Zhao's death, Wu Sanlang went to Ding's house. You are afraid that Wu Sanlang and Ding Qiuhua's entanglement will prevent her from entering Zhao's mansion. He caught Wu Sanlang and beat him up, and even knocked him out.

"The Wu family and the Ding family will take over Liang Zi. Once Ding Qiuhua cannot enter the Zhao family, it is impossible to look back to Wu Sanlang. Not only that, the Ding family will become a laughing stock. will marry her.

This is the key for you to kill Mrs. Zhao! ? "Zhen Qingming patted the gavel, and Ding Dazhuang's face suddenly turned pale.

Zhen Qingming saw Donglai Dongbao nodding at him standing outside the door, and said seriously: "This officer pays attention to evidence in solving cases, and bring witnesses to court!"

The owners of the grocery store and the blacksmith shop came in at the same time, and then Zhen Qingming took out another piece of paper, "See, this is the testimony of the villagers of Wujia Village. You were not in Wujia Village when the deceased was killed." Then he asked the witness, "Do you really believe that?" Don't know this person?"

The two walked to Ding Dazhuang's side, shook their heads at the same time, and said in unison, "He bought iron nails and flint in the villain's shop!"

Ding Dazhuang trembled, and Zhen Qingming stared at him and said word by word, "You light the leaves with flint, then throw the iron nails into the fire, and when the iron nails are hot, stab Mrs. Zhao at once, and the iron nails burn instantly. Cook the flesh around the wound while preventing the blood from flowing out.

"So, when the villagers saw you, they didn't realize that there were bloodstains on your body, and there was no bloodstains in the river, so the next day, Zhao's body was spotted by the river, and people discovered her, right?"

Ding Dazhuang lay motionless on the ground, then stood up suddenly, "No!"

"Kneel down!" Two yamen servants pressed Ding Dazhuang's shoulders, and Zhen Qingming said: "Today, I have convinced you! The certificate will be presented to the court!"

Ding Dazhuang froze immediately, why there are still witnesses.He turned his head reflexively, and saw two soldiers guarding the city gate coming together, and immediately sat down on the ground.

After the two bowed their hands to Zhen Qingming, Zhen Qingming asked, "Do you have any impression of this person?"

"My lord, this subordinate remembers this person. On March [-]th, when it was our turn to be on duty, we saw a man suddenly fall down not far away, and my subordinate wanted to go up to him to ask if he was okay, but at that time His figure was like a gust of wind, "whoosh" passed in front of me, and I subconsciously paused.

Immediately afterwards, I saw this man get up and catch up. Since the two of them were walking faster than the other, I took a look at the sun. It was about the end of the day, and it was still early before dark, so I muttered, hurry up and reincarnate. . "

"Yes, my lord, he said that at the time." Another gatekeeper said, "At that time, few people went out of the city and entered the city. These days, he was the only one who fell at the gate of the city. The subordinates remember it very clearly. Yes Yes, he was still carrying a bag of things."

"Ding Dazhuang, why don't you tell me the whole story of how you killed Mrs. Zhao and how you dumped his body!" Zhen Qingming picked up the gavel, and with a "pop", the stunned man came back to his senses.

"Sir, my lord, my lord, please spare my life, please my lord, please my lord..." Seeing that he couldn't escape, Ding Dazhuang kept kowtowing to Zhen Qingming, and there were bloodstains on the floor before the meeting.

Zhen Qingming raised his hand in vain, and the two yamen servants pulled his head up, "Take it seriously!"

"Yes!" Ding Dazhuang hurriedly said, "I said, I said, after I was knocked down by someone, the bag in my hand fell on the ground and was covered with mud. He ran out of the city without even saying an apology. Out of breath, I followed, and when I saw that the person meeting him was Mrs. Zhao, I hid behind a tree not far from them—"

"Wait a minute, you knew Mrs. Zhao beforehand?" Zhen Qingming asked.

"Yes, I heard from Li Si that Mrs. Zhao is a well-known tigress in the county. The villain is afraid that Qiuhua will be bullied if she enters Zhao's mansion. Li Si once delivered food to Zhao's mansion. I begged him to take me in. I took a special look at what Mrs. Zhao looks like. Seeing that she is not as tall as Qiuhua, and she is a little thin, I am relieved."

"So you made up your mind to divorce the Wu family?" Zhen Qingming didn't let him answer, "Continue!"

"When I heard that Mrs. Zhao was pregnant, I thought to myself, I can't let Yuanwai Zhao know that she is pregnant, otherwise Qiuhua can't enter Zhao's house, and this life will be over. So I wanted to push her into the river. The river is cold, and when she climbs It is estimated that there will be no children when they come up.

However, when I saw a few people passing by on the side road, I gave up. If she yelled, I would be caught by people passing by.

"After about a bowl of rice, Ma Liu took the money and left. Mrs. Zhao sat on the ground, crying and laughing for a while. I was dizzy and thought, it's better to kill her once and for all.

"But the villain didn't have a knife in his hand, and there were no stones or sticks nearby. The hardest things were the iron nails in the bag and the flint he just bought, so he took them out."

"Then how did you come up with the idea of ​​heating the iron nails? Doesn't this waste time? What if Mrs. Zhao gets up and leaves?" Zhen Qingming was very surprised.

"Little man, this villain wanted to use a flint to drive an iron nail into Zhao Shi's head, but he was afraid that she would not be able to kill her, so he wanted to heat the iron nail. Even if he couldn't kill her, the heat of the iron nail would burn her to death. I never thought she would get up and leave."

As soon as Ding Dazhuang finished speaking, everyone gasped, and Sanlang fell to the ground all of a sudden, his face was pale and he was stunned.Seeing him like this, Zhen Qingming couldn't help worrying, so he hurriedly closed the case, sentenced Ding Dazhuang to death, and executed in autumn.Running to Saburo, "What happened? What's wrong with you?"
