The new daughter-in-law had a child seven months after marriage, which caused the man to turn his face to see how Yuan Ming cleverly decided the case

Everyone knows that Yuan Ming was a famous great poet of the Qing Dynasty, and he was also a good official.

When Yuan Ming was serving as a county commander in Muyang, he once sentenced a case of having a son in July:

Wang Guanquan, a farmer in Dongxiang Wangjiajiao, married Xing. Seven months after marriage, Xing gave birth to a son.

Some people provoked dissension in front of Wang Guanquan, saying that Xing was pregnant before marriage, and gave birth to a son within seven months of marriage, and the son was not Wang Guanquan's own child.

Wang Guan believed it to be true and ran to the kitchen to take a knife and kill him with his wife and children.

In a hurry, Xing Ran to the county court with his son in his arms and cried and complained, saying that he would die to show his innocence. At that time, there were many people watching the bustle.

After Yuan Mei learned about the case, he immediately passed Wang Guanquan to the lobby, and he did not beat or scold, but gave his hand to Congratulate Wang Guanquan. Wang Guanquan was confused and a little overwhelmed.

Yuan Ming said: You are really a bowl of pearls and do not know the treasure, and the empress dowager is called the sister-in-law. The ancient books say that 70% of those who lose - those who are born in only seven months are nobles. He also gave an example of those who were born seven months after they were officials.

Saying, ask someone to send the mother and child into the inner court, and in a few moments the servant sent the mother and son out, and the child was covered in red and colored, and there was a silverware in his hand. It is said that Lady Yuan said that this child was blessed and had recognized him as a son of Gan, and gave him a name called Bifa.

After some persuasion, Wang Guanquan suddenly became enlightened, and his stomach had long since disappeared, and he repeatedly prostrated to Yuan Ming and confessed his mistake. He went home happily with his wife and son.

Yuan Ming judged as follows:

Check the spirit of men and women, and all things are transformed. Sooner or later, or something different. From July to March, there is no one who cannot be born, not in October. The fetus is in the womb, most of them are male and female in two months, and they are shaped in June. If the skeleton is present, it can be produced by itself, and it does not have to wait for October.

Wang Guan's whole town was ignorant and ignorant. To think that man will be born in October is to know only his constant, but not his changes. Killing one's wife with a knife in an attempt to vent one's anger is even more foolish and foolish.

The county has repeatedly enlightened, understood the facts, and understood and approved. Wang Guanquan listened to the rumors and was momentarily indignant, forgivable, and his foolishness was pitiful. After weeping and repenting, may the flesh and bones be regained, and no longer be transformed. He should push the love house and the meaning of the U, and absolve him of the rod.

If there are rogues in the clan, who are not in the township, who create rumors in vain, who lose people's honors, and who break people's wives, Wang Guanquan and Wang Xingshi should be allowed to come to the county at any time and wait for the re-operation.

This judgment.

In the verdict of this case, Yuan Ming also took pains to make a painstaking effort; he did not tire of it, reasoned scientifically, explained his doubts for Wang Guanquan, patiently persuaded and educated, and warned Wang Guanquan not to listen to partiality and belief.

In particular, Yuan Ming was able to deeply understand Dayi's recognition of this baby as a righteous son, and pointed out that people born in the seven months of ancient and modern times are often nobles, which is also the key to resolving this case, so that the legitimate rights and interests of Xing's mother and son have been protected.

Later, according to Yuan Ming's "Suiyuan Poetry", Wang Guanquan really concentrated on reading for his son, and as a result, the family had a very happy life, and Wang Guanquan also took his wife and children to Suiyuan to thank Yuan For his great kindness.
