In Wu City's yamen, on the mural behind the county magistrate's throne, a red sun symbolizing justice gradually rose from the sea.

"Mighty..."

"Bring suspect Mrs Liu to court." Su Mu, who was dressed in the county magistrate's uniform, sat in the hall and spoke with an imposing voice while holding the Shocking Wood.

It turned out that when he returned to the yamen last night and heard Su Mu's thoughts to Lin Yi, he casually said, "Since you've thought everything through, then I'll let you interrogate him tomorrow."

Before Su Mu could refuse, Lin Yi had already stopped her from speaking. He unconsciously lowered his voice, "The reason why I left that piece of trash was to stabilize the situation. Since you have confirmed the murderer, you will be the one in charge."

After finishing his sentence, he took the bag, Fu Cheng, and left while waving his fan.

It had created the scene of Su Mu sitting in the imperial court.

Seeing this, Bao Fusheng, who was standing behind the Grand Master's chair, smiled warmly at the same king, "I can't see, Brother Su's seating is rather suitable."

Wang Tong touched the sweat on his forehead, wondering how they would react if they knew the truth.

At this moment, the yamen runners had already brought Mrs Liu up.

Mrs Liu, who was kneeling at the foot of the hall, had already been taken prisoner and put on her prison uniform. Her aged body seemed to have suffered through an entire night, becoming even more haggard and haggard.

Su Mu patted the wood in his hand once again, "House Liu, are you guilty?"

Mrs Liu, who was kneeling on the ground, turned a deaf ear and continued to pretend that she was deaf. Seeing this, Su Mu did not interrogate her and instead shouted towards the outside of the hall, "Mrs Liu does not acknowledge her crime, bring witness Zhu Chusheng."

At this moment, Mrs Liu's expression finally changed. She began to show an expression of fear and trepidation. The iron chains on her hands seemed to tremble.

"This commoner, Zhu Chusheng, pays his respects to the lord." There was also an attendant accompanying Zhu Chusheng to the hall.

Zhu Chusheng's illness seemed to become more and more serious, to the point that he could not even kneel down and finish it on his own.

Su Mu glanced at the hall and spoke with a dignified tone, "Zhu Chusheng, what is your relationship with Mrs Liu? "Now that you know the evidence, quickly explain it all to me."

"My lord, this humble one really does not know what evidence my lord needs. My mother has been gone for several months. What do you want this humble one to say?" Mrs Liu is just a servant at home, why would she be willing to die with her mother? " Zhu Chusheng asked weakly.

The person that had been sent out hadn't arrived yet, so Su Mu could only continue stalling for time, "Since you don't know, then let's announce another witness."

He saw Old Master He being led to the hall by a bailiff. Zhu Chusheng saw him nod politely, but Old Master He acted as if he despised him and knelt in front of him in disdain.

"This commoner, He Shou, pays his respects to the lord." The sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the hall before Old He finished paying his respects.

It was originally a bailiff from the yamen. He carried something in his arms as he waited outside the hall for a summons.

The person Su Mu was waiting for had finally arrived. He called for the yamen runner to enter the hall.

Mrs Liu, who was kneeling below the hall, was the first to clearly see what the bailiff was holding in his arms. She suddenly became excited and started to sob in Zhu Chusheng's direction, as if she was anxious to say something.

However, he was too embarrassed to make a sound. A few drops of sweat flowed down from his forehead all the way to the corner of his eye, making his eyes seem like there was a little bit of fluorescent light in his eyes.

Zhu Chusheng seemed to have also followed Mrs Liu's gaze and guessed the object in that person's arms. He simply lifted his head and lowered it again. When Mrs Liu saw her young master's reaction, she calmed down and returned to her previous silence.

"Do you know what this bailiff is holding in his arms?" Su Mu's gaze swept across the three people kneeling in the hall. His tone turned much more relaxed as he said, "I don't think you all know. I'll tell you then, that is a child."

Seeing that the three of them could still hold their breath, Su Mu added more weights and the corner of his mouth curved slightly, "This child is no different from other babies, except there is a peach birthmark under his feet."

Upon hearing this, Old He had already raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, while Zhu Chusheng's lips were gradually turning purple. As for Mrs Liu, she was even sobbing out loud.

"Master He, do you know whose family this child belongs to?" Su Mu glared at him and said.

Master He swallowed his saliva and said shakily, "This commoner …" This commoner does not know. "

"Oh? I thought this was your daughter. " Su Mu pretended to guess.

Actually, this fact was revealed long ago yesterday when Bao Fu Sheng and Su Mu returned to the He family's backyard together.

Old Master He was shocked speechless by Su Mu's question, but tears were already flowing down his cheeks.

His family was unlucky. They had arranged a marriage like this for his daughter. Master He, who didn't want his daughter to live a miserable life, would rather die than allow his daughter to marry into his family. He thought that after the storm between him and his daughter had passed away, his daughter would not be able to find a good family, but his daughter suddenly told him that she was pregnant. The father of the child was the man who had been betrothed to him, Zhu Chusheng.

"You beast! Destroy my daughter! " Master He still couldn't suppress his emotions, so he threw himself onto Zhu Chusheng and began to beat him up.

He held the child in his palm and doted on it for more than ten years. The two of them were actually born with rice and cooked until they matured. For his grandson's sake, he could only ask the Zhu Family to mortgage the house to lend the Zhu Family money and start such a loss-making business again.

However, even if Madam Zhu wasn't willing, she still sent people to say that she didn't recognize her daughter's child as Zhu Chunsheng's flesh and blood. Extreme Qi originally wanted to have his daughter become pregnant, but his daughter was unwilling to do so. She kept saying that Zhu Chusheng would marry her …

"Are you saying that you want to give my son happiness so that he can wait for you to commit suicide?"

In the end, Miss He gave birth to a baby boy. After the death of her mother, Master He secretly sent a servant to Zhu Chusheng to coax Miss He's child into death. Unexpectedly, she even hanged herself yesterday, fortunately being saved by a servant girl.

"Pull it open." When Su Mu saw Old Master He stick his head out for his daughter, his eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Zhu Chusheng's body was already extremely weak. After being hit by Old Master He, he looked like he was on the verge of death as he gasped for breath.

"Zhu Chusheng, this child was found in the Zhu Residence's firewood house. Master He also pointed out that the child belonged to you and Miss He. Do you admit it?" Su Mu stabilized his good mood and asked in a deep voice.

After calming himself down for a long time, Zhu Chusheng finally recovered and nodded in Su Mu's direction.

Thus, Su Mu asked again, "Then why did you put your own flesh and blood in the woodshed with the dog?"

When Zhu Chusheng heard this, he nearly gasped for breath, looking as if he was about to die. The servant boy beside him quickly shouted, "Young master! "Young Master!"

Su Mu looked at the people below the hall coldly and slapped the wood, "Silence!"

The situation changed, but the truth slowly surfaced.
