This story is based on a true case from the Qing Dynasty. In the Qing Dynasty, there was a case in which a man named Wu Dawen committed adultery with his mistress and finally killed his second son, and the reason for this was infuriating. Wu Dawen lived in a place called Zhulin Village, Wu Dawen was not a villager in this Zhulin Village, he moved here from a nearby place and rented forty acres of land from the landlord Dai Zhaobin. When Wu Dawen was young, he married his wife Zhang Shi and had two sons, Wu Yanming and Wu Yanhua. Wu Dawen's ancestors were all sharecroppers for three generations, and their lives were not rich, and their lives have always been tight.
Wu Dawen's eldest son Wu Yanming and second son Wu Yanhua married wives successively, and the life of Wu Dawen's family was even more difficult. One day, Wu Dawen's wife Zhang Shi said to Wu Dawen: "I heard that there is a place called Zhulin Village thirty miles away from us, where there is a big landlord Dai Zhaobin, and the rent of his family's land is cheap, so why don't we go there and cultivate the land?" Wu Dawen snorted. Later, Wu Dawen came to this bamboo forest village and inquired about it, and sure enough. Therefore, Wu Dawen found the landlord Dai Zhaobin, Wu Dawen went straight to the point and proposed to Dai Zhaobin the idea of renting land, at this time, one of Dai Zhaobin's tenants happened to quit the rent because he wanted to defect to a relative in other places, and Dai Zhaobin rented the forty acres of land vacated to Wu Dawen. Wu Dawen's family moved to this bamboo forest village and rented a house here.
Scenes of ancient life
With a blink of an eye, Wu Dawen had been coming to this bamboo forest village for two years. In this bamboo forest village, there is a tenant named Zha Chuangui, Zha Chuangui is a few years younger than Wu Dawen, Zha Chuangui's wife Tian Shiren looks ok, the key is that she is also quite good at dressing, a bit of charm still exists. Tian Clan is good and lazy, Wu Dawen sometimes treats this Tian Clan with small favors, just like this, back and forth, the two hook up and become adulterous. Over time, Wu Dawen's adulterous affair with Tian Shi was detected by Cha Chuangui. On this day, Zha Chuangui told his wife Tian Shi that he went to the county town to do some things, and did not come back for two days, in fact, Zha Chuangui hid nearby, and sure enough, the next afternoon, Wu Dawen sneaked into Zha Chuangui's house, and Zha Chuangui immediately blocked Wu Dawen in his home, and Zha Chuangui was furious and threatened to report Wu Dawen to the official palace, and Wu Dawen knew that he was in a wrong, so he took a few pieces of silver to Zha Chuangui. In fact, Zha Chuangui was also a delicious and lazy goods, and later, this Zha Chuangui even acquiesced in conniving at his wife Tian Shi and Wu Dawen's adultery, and only occasionally asked Wu Dawen for some silver.
Later, this matter was learned by the landlord Dai Zhaobin, who was a person who could not rub sand in his eyes, and after knowing this matter, Dai Zhaobin asked Wu Dawen and Zha Chuangui to withdraw their rent. Wu Dawen and Zha Chuangui led their families to a place called Zhushan Village, where they rented land again. There is a hill called Zhushan next to The Village of Zhushan, hence the name Zhushan Village. One year, a sheep herder named Aaron in Zhushan Village suddenly ran back to the village from the mountain, looking panicked, and told the villagers that he had found a corpse on the mountain.
Ancient scenes
The head of the county court quickly led a few arrests to Zhushan Village, and when they reached the mountain, they saw that in a ravine, Wu Dawen's wife Zhang Shi was crying next to a corpse, and there were many villagers standing next to it. After an examination of the body, the head of the prisoner determined that the man had been murdered and that the wounds on his neck were obvious. The person's identity was identified as Wu Dawen's son, Wu Yanhua, who had been missing for three days.
When the murder case occurred, the head of the county court led the people to begin to investigate the case. After the investigation of the head of the criminal arrest, the victim Wu Yanhua had no enemies in the local area, but had quarreled with Zha Chuangui several times, and the two had also fought. Zha Chuangui was soon arrested and taken to the county court, and the timid Zha Chuangui quickly confessed, saying that it was not Wu Yanhua he killed, but Wu Yanhua's father Wu Dawen who personally killed Wu Yanhua, and he was just an accessory. Wu Dawen was soon arrested, and the head of the criminal arrest found the tool for committing the crime on Zhushan Mountain, a knife of short length, and there was blood on the knife, which was thrown in a remote corner of Zhushan Mountain, and after the identification of Wu Dawen's wife Zhang Shi and others, this knife was Wu Dawen's.
Wu Dawen also confessed, admitting that he had killed his second son, Wu Yanhua. As for why Wu Dawen and Zha Chuangui killed Wu Yanhua together, the matter was like this: Wu Dawen and Zha Chuangui's wife Tian Shi committed adultery, Wu Dawen's second son Wu Yanhua was very unaccustomed to this, and once Wu Yanhua secretly told his father to let his father stop committing adultery with Tian Shi, Wu Dawen was immediately full of anger and slapped Wu Yanhua. Wu Yanhua saw that he could not stop his father, so he began to spread the story of his father Wu Dawen's adultery with the Tian clan in the countryside, and later, Dai Zhaobin, the landlord of Zhulin Village, also learned of this matter and drove his tenants Wu Dawen and Zha Chuangui away. After arriving in Zhushan Village, Wu Yanhua often quarreled with Zha Chuangui, and the two fought twice, and Zha Chuangui wanted to take his wife Tian Shi to other places.
Wu Dawen was afraid that after Zha Chuangui's two sons moved away, they would not be able to continue to commit adultery with the Tian clan, so Wu Dawen found Zha Chuangui and wanted to kill Wu Yanhua together. Later, Wu Dawen and Zha Chuangui tricked Wu Yanhua into taking Wu Yanhua to a remote corner, Wu Dawen took out the knife hidden in his waist and cut it to Wu Yanhua's neck, Wu Yanhua immediately lost his breath, and then Wu Dawen threw Wu Yanhua's body into the ravine, and later Wu Yanhua's body was found by a sheep herding doll named Aaron. This Qing Dynasty man Wu Dawen actually killed his son with his own hands for his own lust, which can be said to be inferior to all animals.
