Chapter 116 The county magistrate is here, and there will be a blue sky!

"Han Xian, you are the plaintiff in this case, you can state the case."

Lu Xuan said.

Although the complaints are all written on the pleadings, the basic process still needs to be followed.

Han Xian also knew this truth, and immediately stated the cause and effect of the matter and his appeal.

"...Xiaomin's words are true, and I ask adults to make decisions for Xiaomin!"

Han Xian kowtowed heavily.

Lu Xuan slightly nodded and looked at Wang Pan:
"Wang Pan, do you have anything to correct about Han Xian's statement?"

Wang Pan glanced at Han Xian, and snorted, as if dissatisfied:
"What this person said is simply nonsense! Why did you lose a child at the Lantern Festival... Can such a big child be taken care of?"

He cupped his hands to Lu Xuan:

"My lord, the 'own son' mentioned by this person was actually born to me with a concubine.

Because my son is weak and afraid to see the wind, he has been staying at home and has never gone out.

I never thought that I was taken out by a servant a few days ago, and I was actually raped by this person... I think he just saw that my Wang family is quite rich, and he deliberately wanted to take advantage of it! "

"I depend on you?!"

Han Xian stared:

"Although my Han family is not a high-ranking family, but they are quite wealthy, would they be greedy for your family's property?!"

"Not always."

Wang Pan sleeved his hands and hummed twice:

"Perhaps all the money your family has accumulated was obtained through such swindles and abductions..."

"you……"

Han Xian blushed, pointing at Wang Pan and trying to curse.

But now that he is in court, he choked back.

"Both of you claim that the child is yours, do you have evidence?"

Lu Xuan asked.

"My lord, all my wives and concubines and servants at home can testify for me."

Wang Pan answered first.

"Xiaomin is the same. Although he came to Shangyang City after fleeing from disaster, the servants, wives and concubines of the family still brought them with them. They all know that the child is Xiaomin's biological son."

Han Xian said quickly.

"The words of relatives and servants at home should not be testimonials."

Lu Xuan shook his head, "Where are Li Ming and Lu Ping?"

"Subordinates are here."

"It's genus~ I'm here!"

Two people came out.

"Li Ming went to Wang Pan's house and brought the child and his 'birth mother'; Lu Ping went to Han Xian's house and brought the child's 'mother' to the yamen.

The two of you will go find another doctor and invite him here. The county magistrate will let the two sides confront each other in court. "

Lu Xuan ordered.

"Yes!"

Li Ming and Lu Ping responded.

"Right, one more thing."

Lu Xuan called the two of them to his side and gave a few instructions.

After listening to his explanation, the two nodded heavily.

After half an hour.

Two young women were led into the hall, one of them with a baby in her arms.

The doctor from the nearby medical center also came. Hearing the summons from the county government, he naturally didn't dare to neglect.

At this time, a lot of people had already gathered outside the lobby, and everyone was talking about it.

Some people said that Wang Pan was mean and treacherous, not a good thing, so Qingxian sent down punishment, now he is almost fifty, and he doesn't even have a son.

This time the appointment was because he saw that other people's children were good-looking, so he stole Han Xian's children and brought them up so that he could provide for himself in the old age.

It is also said that Wang Pan is not too old now, so he can find more concubines and continue to live with hard work.

Furthermore, with the Wang family's financial resources, if they casually released a piece of news about recruiting children and son-in-laws, a large number of people would sign up, so there was no need to steal other people's children.

It must be Han Xian, a despicable outsider who conspired against the Wang family's property and wanted to blackmail him.

Some people even said that it might not belong to anyone else's family. These two people were thieves who conspired to steal other people's children. The real parents of the child might have been killed by them.

This was the first time that the county government tried a case after Lu Xuan took office, and the common people found it new and attracted many people to come.

Everyone wanted to see how the new county magistrate handled the case.

Two women and a doctor in the hall greeted Lu Xuan.

Of the two women, the one holding the child was Wang Pan's concubine, Mrs. Zhang, and the other was Han Xian's wife, Mrs. Zhao.

The doctor's name is Liu Huaiyuan, and he comes from a nearby medical clinic.

Because he wanted to diagnose the woman, Liu Huaiyuan specially brought his daughter here.

"Can Langzhong Liu identify how old this little baby is?"

Lu Xuan asked.

Liu Huaiyuan bowed to Lu Xuan, and then moved closer to Mrs. Zhang. He looked at the sleeping baby, pondered for a moment, and said:
"Not more than half a year old."

Lu Xuan nodded:
"Then can you diagnose whether these two people gave birth half a year ago?"

Liu Huaiyuan shook his head when he heard the words:

"Returning to my lord, it's been so long, even if I gave birth, I can't know exactly when it was born."

He paused:

"However, Cao Min brought the little girl here so that she can take the two of them into the quiet room for further inspection."

"can."

Lu Xuan agreed.

He knew what Liu Huaiyuan meant.

Although it is impossible to tell whether the two women have given birth within half a year through the pulse, it can be checked whether they are breastfeeding and whether they have given birth recently through the stretch marks on their bodies.

There is a difference between men and women, so this matter has to be done by Liu Langzhong's daughter.

Under Lu Xuan's order, the yamen servants brought cloth from the warehouse and surrounded it with a thick cloth wall to block everyone's sight.

The daughters of Zhang Shi, Zhao Shi and Liu Langzhong entered it.

After a cup of tea time, the inspection is over.

It doesn't take much effort to look at the stomach and chest.

"Your Honor."

Liu Langzhong's daughter bowed:

"After the examination by the women, both of them were able to produce breast milk, and the signs of pregnancy on the lower abdomen were also similar, no one faked it."

As soon as these words came out, both the yamen servants in the field and the people who were watching looked at each other in blank dismay.

"How come both of them have given birth?"

"Could it be a misdiagnosis?"

"Misdiagnosed as fart, can't you see the scar on the milk and stomach?"

"Then what's going on? A child can't have two mothers..."

"Could it be that Liu Langzhong took the money and deliberately arranged for his daughter to say that..."

"The magistrate of the county is a random doctor, how could he do it in advance?"

"..."

Outside the county government, the common people whispered.

At this time, the pressure was on Lu Xuan's side.

"My lord, this subordinate has an idea."

At this time, Li Ming took the initiative to stand up:

"The subordinates think that a six-month-old child should already be able to recognize strangers. It might as well wake him up to see if he is close to Han Xian and Wang Pan."

"You can give it a try."

After thinking for a moment, Lu Xuan agreed with Li Ming's idea.

So Li Ming walked over and shook the sleeping child awake.

As soon as the child opened his eyes, he saw a big face approaching him. He was so frightened that he cried out with a "wow".

Mrs. Zhang hastily coaxed the child twice to calm down.

After a while, Lu Xuan said:
"let's start."

Han is now the plaintiff, so the verification starts with him.

Reluctantly, Mrs. Zhang handed the child into Han Xian's hands.

Han Xian hugged the child and shook it gently. The child was quiet and neither crying nor fussing.

"Also ask the adults to take a look."

Han Xian said.

Lu Xuan nodded and remained silent.

Seeing this scene, the people watching around started discussing in low voices.

It seems that Han Xian is indeed the biological father of the child.

"Han Xian, you hand over the child to Wang Pan."

Lu Xuan remained calm.

Han Xian nodded and followed suit.

From his point of view, there is no longer any controversy about this matter.

Wang Pan glanced at him and took the child.

However, what Han Xian did not expect was that when Wang Pan held the child in his arms, the child was equally quiet and even reached out to Wang Pan.

"Is there a problem?"

Wang Pan raised his eyelids.

"how is this possible?!"

Han Xian's eyes widened, and he immediately realized:
"I know, I know... You must have raised the child well during this time, otherwise, how could my child kiss you?!"

"What the fuck are you talking about?"

Wang Pan sneered, "I think you are thinking about the child like crazy, and you are about to bite when you open your mouth."

Stirred by him, Han Xian clenched his fists and wanted to go up and fight him.

The yamen servant on the side had sharp eyes and quick hands, and a few killing sticks fell, crushing him to the ground.

"My lord, can I ask this person?"

Li Ming said.

"allow."

Lu Xuan agreed.

Li Ming stepped forward and said to Wang Pan:
"Let me ask you, you said that your child has never been exposed to wind before, and it was the first time to go out a few days ago, right?"

"Is such that."

Wang Pan admitted.

"So, this kid has never had contact with Han Xian before."

Li Ming looked into Wang Pan's eyes:
"In this case, why was he so quiet when he was hugged by Han Xian, without fear of life at all?"

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the field.

The people reacted one after another.

According to the confessions of both parties.

Han Xian claimed that his child was lost after being raised for five months, was picked up by Wang Pan, and was raised for another month.

But Wang Pan said that his children had never met Han Xian before, and Han Xian was a stranger.

In other words, if what Han Xian said is true, then the child has been raised by the Wang family, and no matter whether he sees Wang Pan or Han Xian, he will not cry.

According to Wang Pan's confession, his child would inevitably cry after contacting the "stranger" Han Xian.

After such a verification, it is natural to know who is true and who is false.

It was precisely in consideration of this that Li Ming came up with this method.

"This this……"

Faced with Li Ming's questioning, Wang Pan was speechless for a moment:
"That's because, because..."

On his forehead, cold sweat gradually oozed out.

"grown ups."

At this moment, Wang Pan's wife, Mrs. Zhang, suddenly said:

"My child is very well-behaved. He is not afraid of strangers and kisses anyone."

"Ok?"

Hearing this, Lu Xuan raised his eyebrows.

"If you don't believe me, you can prove it."

Zhang said.

Lu Ping on the side heard the words and came to Wang Pan.

Wang Pan handed the child over.

It was exactly as Zhang said.

Lu Ping, a rough man, hugged the child and coaxed him by shaking him.

The child not only does not cry, but also giggles.

So much so that people doubt that he is the biological father of the child.

Once again, the field was deadlocked.

Everyone turned their eyes to the county magistrate above the high hall.

Lu Xuan took a sip of tea calmly:
"Li Ming, Lu Ping, you two come here."

Then everyone saw that Li, Lu, and the county magistrate and the master brought by the county magistrate gathered together.

They lowered their voices and seemed to be discussing something.

After the time of two cups of tea.

"Snapped!"

Lu Xuan slapped the gavel:

"The circumstances of this case are complicated, both sides insist on their own opinions and have evidence, so it is difficult to reach a consensus.

After discussion between the county and the masters, the court was adjourned temporarily, and the interrogation will start after half an hour.

However, in order to prevent scrambles, the child is temporarily placed here in the county... Lu Ping, take the child out to ventilate the air. There are so many people in the county office, the air is not very good. "

Han Xian and the others looked at each other, and the servants moved out chairs in a very humane way for them to rest.

After half an hour.

"No, no, no... not good!"

Lu Ping rushed in in a panic, "Master, master..."

He suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed hard to Lu Xuan.

"what happened?!"

Lu Xuan frowned.

"Son, boy, he, he, he..."

Lu Ping stammered, "My child..."

"What happened to the child?!"

Hearing Lu Ping's words, Han Xian stood up abruptly.

"The child... is gone."

A voice sounded, and Liu Langzhong's daughter walked in.

She held a small quilt in her arms, and the baby's face was blue and purple, which was very different from the normal appearance.

She gently placed the baby on the ground and covered him with a white cloth.

"I went to the street... I went to the street to buy a piece of candy... I fed it to the children... As a result, as a result..."

Lu Ping wailed, "I didn't either, I didn't expect to choke him to death!"

Han Xian felt dizzy and couldn't support himself, so he sat down on the ground.

"Liu Langzhong, Liu Langzhong..."

He seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and scrambled towards Liu Langzhong, "Please, please save my son..."

Liu Langzhong sighed:
"The old man has already seen it, but the dead cannot be brought back to life. My condolences to Brother Han."

"This... I didn't expect this county to encounter such a thing for the first time in court."

Lu Xuan had a complicated expression, "Now there is no need to snatch this child, or you two will be buried separately..."

"grown ups!"

Han Xian turned his head, with a look of grief and indignation on his face.

The people outside the venue also secretly scolded the county magistrate for being a fool.

The father just died of his son, and his bones are not cold yet, so there is no suggestion to cut up the body and divide it equally.

"Then... who of you will claim the child's body?"

Lu Xuan asked.

"This is my son, my son..."

Han Xian knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.

Wang Pan looked at the livid-looking baby's corpse not far away, curled his lips:

"All right, all right, let it be you, let it be you."

Above the high hall, Lu Xuan smiled.

"Snapped!"

The gavel sounded, and Lu Zhixian raised his hand and pointed:
"Come here, take the king plate for me!"

All the Yamen servants were ordered to rush forward.

More than a dozen killing power sticks fell down, those who crossed their arms stretched their arms, those who pressed their necks pressed their necks, those who knocked on the crook of their legs knocked the crook of their legs, and pushed Wang Pan to the ground.

"My lord, what do you mean by this!"

Wang Pan stiffened his neck and wanted to raise his head.

"You kept saying that this was your son, but when the baby died, you didn't even show any sadness on your face."

Lu Xuan's eyes sank slightly:

"On the other hand, Han Xian's appearance is distraught. Does the official need to explain who is the biological father of the child?"
