Ming Dynasty Zhengde twelve years (1517), the imperial court settled out and Zhangpu_span_span6 span 6 span 6 span 6 span 7 span and Zhang county Pinghe County, the three counties belong to and Zhangzhou Prefecture. There was a man in the county named Fengji who gave birth to a daughter named Feng, who was in her early twenties. She was very beautiful and married Duan Lu, a neighboring village less than three miles away, as his wife.
Once, the Feng family returned to her natal family residence because his father Fengji had been doing business abroad all year round. Who knows, just a few days later, one morning, when his mother Zhen Shi just woke up, she saw her daughter Feng lying on the floor of the bedroom, bloody, and she had already died of anger.
Seeing her daughter's tragic death, Zhen's grief was so unusual that she couldn't help crying. When the neighbors heard the crying, they all came to inspect and saw a murder case. They hurriedly sent people to find Feng's husband Duan Lu.
After Duan Lu hurriedly arrived and saw his wife died on the ground with a bloody steel knife beside him, he asked his mother-in-law Zhen: "Who actually killed my wife? This steel Who owns the knife?"
Zhen shook his head, saying that he didn't know. Duan Lu was dubious, picked up the steel knife and saw that the words "Ji Peiquan" were engraved on the scabbard, and he asked Zhen Ji Peiquan who was.
Zhen's eyes flickered, and he refused to say. At this time, a neighbor told Duan Lu: "Ji Peiquan is the name of Ji Ren, a rich son in the village." Then he muttered: "Ji Ren had a fight with his wife Hu at home yesterday. Feng has always had an affair. Is it because he killed someone because of his anger?"
When Duan Lu heard this, he became furious. He immediately asked someone to write a testimonial and went to Pinghe County to file a complaint.The accusation that Jiren, a wealthy man, had an affair with his wife, Feng Shi, because he quarreled with his wife Hu Shi at home.
At that time, the surname of Pinghe County was Zhu, who had the same surname as the emperor, and he had just arrived here shortly after taking office. When Zhu Zhixian saw a murder case, he did not dare to neglect at all, and hurriedly brought a group of government officials and Wu Zuo to the scene for investigation.
Upon arriving at the scene, Zhu Zhixian ordered Yuzuo to examine Feng's body carefully and found that she was stabbed to death by someone, and the murder weapon was a steel knife on the ground. So she asked Zhen again and learned that the door was not locked at the time. Apparently the murderer entered from the outside and escaped after killing someone.
After the investigation, Zhu Zhixian returned to the county office. He was about to send someone to bring Ji Ren into court, but he happened to meet him and wrote a pleading to complain, claiming that he did have a good knife. Engraved with its own name, it has been sold to Fengji more than ten years ago. Now that someone killed Feng Shi with this knife, he really didn't know the inside story. After all, he told Zhu Zhixian all the things he knew.
It turns out that when Feng's mother, Zhen Shi, was young, she didn't keep a woman's way. She often had affair with the men in the village. Her husband Fengji repeatedly tried to discourage her. She refused to listen, and Fengji was helpless. Every time she waited for Fengji to go out to do business, Zhen Shi publicly met with her friends, and everyone knew it, but she still used this to make money. After Fengji learned of it, he left for a long distance and never came back.
At that time, Fengji's daughter Fengshi was only ten years old. When she was fifteen years old, she saw her mother, Zhen, hang out with other people all day long. She also learned how to fool around with some dudes. Among them, she had the best relationship with Ji Ren. This was also the first man in her life. .
When Feng's reached the age of eighteen, he looked even more gorgeous. The men nearby were eager to find her. Zhen became more reluctant to let her marry, and wanted to keep her at home to make money. However, some of the Feng family's uncles really couldn't see it, and they were persuaded and scolded secretly. Upon seeing this, the Zhen family had no choice but to marry their daughter to the Chu family's son in the outer village.
Who knows, after the Fung family got married, he still didn’t know how to converge. Whenever he had a chance, he would return to his natal family and hang out with some old friends.Everyone knows the noise.
After learning about these incidents, Feng's husband repeatedly lamented the misfortune of the family. Although he repeatedly discouraged her, it was still to no avail. In the end, he really couldn't stand it, so he wrote a letter of divorce and passed her on to Duan Lu.
After the Feng family married Duan Lu, he remained unchanged and fooled with the men in Duan Lu village. Although Duan Lu knew it, she coveted Feng's beauty and refused to divorce her wife. As a result, she became more aggressive, more arrogant, and notorious. Eventually he died because of this incident.
Zhu Zhixian listened to Ji Ren's confession, pondered for a long time, and was about to ask again. Duan Lu said, "I asked who this steel knife belonged to? My mother-in-law said she didn't know. If Ji Ren sold this knife to his father-in-law Fengji, how could there be anything in the family that I didn't know for more than ten years? This must be Ji Ren's own murder weapon. Besides, Ji Ren has an affair with my wife, which has long been known to everyone, and his wife Hu's quarrel with him is also heard by everyone. Isn't this irritating him to kill? The reason?”
Ji Ren heard it, and hurriedly argued: “Feng's life is very chaotic, and there are so many people who have good friends, and I am not the only one. Although the steel knife is not sold by me After Fengji, it was Fengshi who asked me to beg the nightmare a few days ago. If I were to kill someone with a knife, would no one see it? Besides, I have been with Fengshi for a long time, and I am also very affectionate. Why did you kill her cruelly?"
Zhu Zhixian listened and asked the people in the village. Everyone said: "It is true that Ji Ren has an affair with the Feng clan. He and his wife Hu clan beat each other the night before the incident. Swearing is not fake. As for whether Feng was killed by him or not, it’s a confidential matter. We don’t dare to lie.”
Zhu Zhixian listened to the people, and thought to himself: I only heard that the man gave the woman powder money, but he never listened to it. Saying that someone gave a knife, and Ji Ren's wife Hu clan insulted him, he knew that he was unreasonable, and it made sense to anger the Feng clan. In this case, there is no doubt that Ji Ren killed Feng's. Therefore, Zhu Zhixian convicted Ji Ren for murder, sentenced him to imprisonment, put him in jail, and prepared to report to Siyamen for approval before he was executed.
In the second year, Meng visited Fujian by order and went to various places to record prisoners. He happened to come to Pinghe County. When Ji Ren heard the news, he cried to his brother Ji Shi and younger brother Ji Wei who had come to visit him.Saying that they were wronged, let them go to Mengzhengyuan to file a complaint.
Meng Jiayuan listened to the two brothers’ bitter complaints, and did not dare to make a decision. However, he suspected that Feng had too many lovers, so that they were jealous of each other and vented their anger and murder. Suddenly he had a clever plan in his heart. Ji Shi said: "You let Ji Wei go home first, lie that Ji Ren has been executed by the government, and I will ask you to take Ji Ren back and let him pretend to cry in the village in the middle of the night. In this case, if someone really has a guilty conscience. If you don’t, you’ll definitely show your feet.”
Brother Ji Shi led the way, first let Ji Wei, Pi Ma, and Dai Xiao return to the village, preaching that Ji Ren is dead. Soon, Ji Shi brought the coffin back. When the family saw it, they thought Ji Ren was really dead, so they organized a funeral for him. The whole family wept bitterly, and the cries shook the sky.
When the third watch arrived, Ji Ren followed Meng Jiayuan’s plan to make ghosts and cry on the side of the avenue, and then went to the door of the Zhen family and Duan’s house and continued to cry, until the cock cried in the early morning, everyone stopped abruptly. I was terrified and awake at night.
At the beginning of the next night, Duan Lu's pro-second uncle Duan Ran secretly walked out of the door and burned paper in the open space outside the door to pray. At the third watch, Ji Ren came to the door of Zhen Shi and Duan again and cried.
On the third night, Duan Ran walked out of the door and burned the paper again. At this time, Ji Ren had already prepared a long ladder and climbed onto the roof of Duan Ran's house, standing on it, howling ghosts and wolves.
Duan Ran was so frightened when he saw this, he couldn't help but kneel on the ground and kowtow repeatedly: "I molested Feng Shi, but she didn't obey, so I killed her. Actually, it has nothing to do with you. However, it is the official killing now. You, you should go to the government to ask for your life. Don't come to me again. I will definitely burn more paper money to you in the future." After Ji Ren heard this, he stopped crying and went to tell Meng Jiayuan secretly.
After Meng Zhengyuan learned about it, he had a conclusion in his heart, so he ordered Duan Ran to be detained in court, and then deliberately waited until the evening to retrial, and asked him: "Last night, a soul came to file a complaint, saying that you killed the Feng family. , You hurry up and recruit it from reality, or you won't blame the official for being ruthless!"
When Duan Ran heard it, he quickly denied it.At this time, I saw a man and a woman, two ghosts each raising a head, and slowly walked in from outside the lobby door. Under the dim light, they looked very shameless and terrified. Stand aside far away.
After a while, the female ghost came straight to Duan Ran, with a disheveled hair, and struck him with her head. Duan Ran was so scared that she yelled and hurriedly yelled to Meng Jiayuan: "Lord help, Feng's is The villain killed, and I molested her at the time. She didn't obey, so I killed her." Then he explained the ins and outs of the matter.
It turned out that after Feng married Duan Lu, Duan Lu's pro-second uncle, Duan Ran, saw that she was in contact with everyone in the neighborhood, and went to tease her. But Feng Shi thought that he was ugly and a dirty butcher, so he turned him away, so that he held a grudge.
Soon after Feng returned to her natal family, Ji Ren came to relive her old dreams with her. One day, Feng Shi said to Ji Ren: "I often have nightmares these days, and I feel uneasy. I heard that a sword can be hung on the bedside to suppress evil. I don't know if it is true or false." He gave her a steel knife that he loved.
That night, Ji Ren's wife, Hu, heard that her husband often stayed with the Feng family. He cursed Ji Ren at home and started fighting with him. Ji Ren was very angry, and went out of the house, but did not dare to go to Feng's house, so he went to another Xianghao's house to stay overnight.
As there was no one to accompany him at night, Feng's didn't want to sleep, so he got up early in the morning, leaning against the gate and staring at the road in a daze. At this time, Duan Ran just went to buy a pig and passed by. Seeing Feng's standing there alone, he went up and flirted with him: "You got up so early, which lover did you send out?"
Fengshi ignored him and turned around and entered the house. Duan Ran also followed and said to her: "It's a rare opportunity to have this kind of good opportunity today. You must have a good time with me." Feng said: "You are my mate's second uncle, how can you do this? What about?"
Duan Ran replied: "Many people here are nice to you, why can't I?" Feng Shi said again: "I am at my natal family, how can I do this? Don't be foolish!
Duan Ran listened and sneered: "When you were not married, you had a lot of friends.Don't think I don't know. "After that, he took a step forward and took out the steel knife hanging on the bedside and said, "If you don't follow me today, I will kill you!" "
Fengshi was furious after hearing this, and stepped forward: "Do you have such courage?" You try it today! "After finishing speaking, he stared at Duan Ran. Seeing that she was really unwilling, Duan Ran was so angry that he killed her with a single knife, then threw the knife on the ground, and then fled the gate and walked away. Everyone Sure enough, I didn’t suspect him, and I thought Ji Ren, the owner of the steel knife, was the murderer. In the end, Meng pressed the court to set up a plan for Ji Ren and a prostitute to pretend to be a ghost and find out the truth.
So far, this one. The peculiar case of murdering a woman because of her refusal to follow is finally revealed. Duan Ran killed Feng Shi, and Yilu was sentenced to beheaded by Meng Jiayuan and escorted to the downtown area to beheaded to show the public; Ji Ren was acquitted and released in court. After this incident, he also changed his previous mistakes, and never went around fooling around.
Later, every festive festival, Ji Ren would personally prepare an incense case and lead his family to worship Meng Jiayuan together. He is in good health, has a high position, and is a man of all generations.
