Northern Song Dynasty Justice

Chapter 133 Private goods time
See the truth in one sentence!
Su Shi, who was the person involved, couldn't help being a little confused.

Is that okay?

To be honest, this sentence is suspected of contempt and contempt of the court!
Xu Zhiqian, who was standing beside Zhang Fei, was also dumbfounded. Zhang Fei's words just now really frightened her into a fool. After a while, she finally realized, and said in a low voice, "You are really amazing!"

Zhang Fei winked at her triumphantly.

"This stinky boy!"

Sima Guang couldn't help laughing and scolding, "He's coercing a literati to make the magistrate!"

Wang Anshi laughed and said, "I said it has nothing to do with me."

Lu Gong glanced at the two culprits, seeing that they were still muttering, as if they were gloating, he was really angry.

He was irritable when he saw Zhang Fei, and he really didn't want to give it to him.

But Zhang Fei's complaint made him have to give it up.

Because this feudal society is very particular about class status.

Today's hearings are all great writers and young scholars, almost without exception, all of them are scholars.

Zhang Fei's complaint, if you don't give it to me, will these scholar-bureaucrats and literati feel happy?
Although many of them don't like Zhang Fei, this time Zhang Fei is helping them with a lawsuit!
It is related to the vital interests of literati.

I gave it last time, but I won’t give it this time. If it spreads, where will the literati put their face.

Feelings, the status of our literati is not as good as that of the front office?
This must be given!
The long tables and benches of the yamen are lifted up.

bang.

Directly in front of Zhang Fei and Xu Zhiqian.

You don't need to see the difference in attitude, you can even feel it through the pores.

Lu Gong acted as if he hadn't seen it.

Zhang Fei didn't care at all, and said with a smile: "Several poor brothers, can you put aside a little bit, what's the virtue of the little people, how dare you sit opposite the magistrate."

Those poor brothers glanced at Mr. Lu.

Lu Gongzhu also felt that he was also a magistrate and a neutral character. If he sat across the table with one party, he would create a feeling of fighting in a ring.

This is different from the last time, when Zhang Fei sued the imperial court last time, sitting opposite the presiding judge, which also fits the atmosphere.

Mr. Lu nodded slightly, then waved lightly.

Brother Chai understood, and glared at Zhang Fei angrily: "Move it yourself."

Just step aside.

Wow. Don't be so narrow-minded!Zhang Fei quickly cast a contemptuous glance at Lu Gong, then showed his masculinity, refused Xu Zhiqian's request for help, and moved the long table and bench to the side by himself.

Because there were too many people hearing the trial, the hall would definitely not be able to accommodate it. In addition, it was sunny in spring, and the courtroom was located in the front yard, so the space was still large enough.

After sitting down with Xu Zhiqian, Xu Zhiqian methodically placed copywriting on the table.

"Show me a copy of your pleadings."

Zhang Fei said in a low voice.

Xu Zhiqian immediately handed Zhang Fei a copy of the pleadings she had written.

In fact, Zhang Fei didn't think much of the paper, he just dictated his thoughts, but Xu Zhiqian decided how to write it down. After all, the two had cooperated so many times, and he still trusted Xu Zhiqian very much.

After watching for a while, Zhang Fei raised his head and started his defense, "Just now the magistrate said that Jijuxian's bookstore has admitted to stealing the poems of my client, Mr. Su Shi?"

Mr. Lu nodded his head.

He didn't even intend to let the shopkeeper of Jijuxian go to court to debate, because Zhang Fei's offense this time could be big or small, Lu Gongzhu was also afraid of letting the shopkeeper go to court, and asked Zhang Fei questions again.

After all, Zhang Fei's questioning skills are still fresh in his memory!
If you can't, you can't.

Zhang Fei said: "But because Mr. Su is an official of the imperial court, his status is quite special, and because of his status, it has already caused a lot of discussion, so Xiaomin still thinks it is necessary to explain why Mr. Su hired Xiaomin to sue Jiju. Xian, so as not to cause misunderstandings and damage Mr. Su's reputation."

details!
Su Shi, who saw Zhang Fei going to court for the first time, nodded frequently.

This is necessary.

It is true that many people dispute this, thinking that Su Shi is too fussy and lacks the generosity of a literati.

Of course Lu Gongzhu also heard these remarks, so he nodded and said: "Okay! I will give you some time to explain this matter."

"Thank you, prefect."

Zhang Fei looked at the paper and said: "Actually. In fact, it has been written very clearly on the paper. Changing the beginning and the end of the paper, increasing the pronunciation and meaning, abbreviating the engraving, discrepancies, and misleading scholars."

After reading this, he suddenly asked in a low voice: "Miss Xu, what do you mean by these few words?"

Xu Zhiqian almost collapsed, "Didn't you read it?"

After she finishes writing, she will definitely show it to Zhang Fei.

"Uh, I read it, but I didn't say I understood it completely! Tell me quickly!"

Xu Zhiqian is really drunk, you trust me too much.

"The general meaning is to add changes, take out of context, and misunderstand readers."

"Very good! That's pretty much what I want to express."

Zhang Fei raised his head and found that the courtyard was surprisingly quiet inside and outside. He saw the government servants, literati and dandies watching at the gate, all looking at the two of them in bewilderment.

Mr. Lu is used to the two of them whispering in private, but most people here have never seen such a lawsuit.

All looked silly.

What are you doing?
Talk about love?
Zhang Fei, who has always liked open hearings, felt for the first time that he would have to apply for a closed-door hearing next time.

As everyone knows, it is difficult to go back to the closed-door trial now.

After all, no one else came to file a complaint, and the seats for the hearing had already been reserved.

"Cough cough!"

Zhang Fei coughed twice tactically, and asked Lu Gong again: "I wonder if the magistrate agrees with these words?"

Lu Gong nodded his head and said: "If it weren't for these few words, I wouldn't have opened the court to hear the case."

Zhang Fei nodded and said: "I believe that apart from the magistrate, everyone sitting here should also agree that this kind of piracy by Jijuxian will cause much damage to Mr. Su's reputation.

However, everyone should understand that Mr. Su did not use his status and power to stop this kind of behavior, or secretly revenge on Ji Juxian. If Mr. Su did so, it would undoubtedly be bending the law for personal gain.

Because this matter is not within the scope of his authority, even if he has this power, according to the rules of the court, he should choose to avoid suspicion.In order to be fair, Mr. Su chose to hire me to recover his rights in court.

There is no more appropriate way to deal with it than this.When an official has a conflict with the people, he chooses to resort to the court. This is the real impartiality, this is the real gentleman, and this is the beauty of my Song Dynasty.

I heard that there are still many people expressing dissatisfaction with this. I think those who say these words are ignorant and extremely shameless, and they are villains. "

The speaker has a heart, and the listener has a heart!

Fu Bi and Han Qi stared at him immediately.

Who are you scolding?

Almost at the same time, there was a burst of cheers and cheers outside the door.

"well said!"

"That's very well said, and I thought so too."

"Mr. Su is really a gentleman."

Su Shi asked Erbi to sue Jijuxian, which indeed caused a lot of controversy.

Many people think that Su Shi's actions are too ungentlemanly and aggressive.

Is that why you stole a few of your poems?

At the same time, more people supported Su Shi, and the two sides were arguing hard.

Now, according to Zhang Fei's argument, this is exactly the embodiment of demeanor, which is exactly the embodiment of a gentleman.

Su Shi's status is many times higher than that of the bookseller. He can use his power and connections to stop this kind of behavior, but he chooses to go to court and use legal means to solve it. Isn't this selfless?

Those who support Su Shi, of course, applaud Zhang Fei's argument, but also vent their anger for themselves!
Han Qi stroked his beard, "He has some truths."

Fu Bi also showed shame and remained silent.

"quiet!"

Lu Gong patted the gavel.

Immediately there was silence outside the courtyard.

Zhang Fei suddenly looked around, and said loudly: "I hope that more officials will come to sue me in the future. Only in this way can justice be done and fairness and justice be upheld. Instead of sowing dissension secretly, or relying on Power, who is not allowed to communicate with so and so, and use some indecent means to retaliate and oppress the people, this kind of behavior is called lack of grace, a hypocrite is also despicable, shameless, shameless, maddened, Vicious as hell, uh..."

As he was talking, he was a little out of breath, and suddenly whispered to Xu Zhiqian: "Hurry up, hurry up, add a few words for me, my brain is not enough."

Xu Zhiqian desperately held back her smile, "Let me add something for you, and it's enough."

"You are so useless!"

Zhang Fei was annoyed again: "It's true that when the book is used up, I will hate less!"

quiet!
It gradually became quiet inside and outside the courtyard.

All eyes were on Zhang Fei.

Is he really complaining about Mr. Su?

Not like ah!
It seems to be complaining for himself.

A few days ago, when his law firm opened, there were no guests. Of course, everyone knew what was going on.

This guy is clearly pointing fingers at Sang Huai!

What about work ethic?

Su Shi standing next to him was really trembling. He regretted that he had offended so many people after this lawsuit was settled!
God knows if Sansi will take his anger out on him.

You must know that he is just a younger brother now, and these big bosses can't afford to mess with him!

People ask for money in a lawsuit, you are terrible!

However, the jealous Wang Anshi applauded silently. If he hadn't considered his status, he would have applauded Zhang Fei.

Sima Guang was thoughtful.

If there is a dispute between officials and the people, they must also go to court!

Good boy, you really take my Kaifeng Mansion as your own home!Lu Gong was so angry that his teeth were itching, you can go to the boss to make a fuss, what are you calling me, and immediately asked: "There is such a thing, you just say it, I will make the decision for you."

Don't accuse Sang and scold Huai, just say it if you have the ability.

Zhang Fei opened a page of copywriting: "For example, Wang Si Nong back then."

"Cough cough!"

This move returned the carbine, killing Lu Gong so much that he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, he hurriedly said: "The case is closed, you have to seek justice, what else can you say."

He thought that Zhang Fei must be alluding to the third division, you are capable, but you used your name to insinuate in the court of Kaifeng mansion, it is really unreasonable, who knows that this guy doesn't talk about martial arts, and he mentioned that Wang Sinong restrained the dispute.

The case at the beginning really made everyone in the Kaifeng mansion want to die, and Lu Gong never wanted to mention it again in his life.

Mr. Lu was really afraid that this guy would make use of the topic, so he told him: "Don't talk about it here, just talk about this case."

"Xiaomin obeys!"

Zhang Fei flipped through the document again, "Therefore, Mr. Su hired me to fight the lawsuit to defend justice and his own rights with fairness, which is absolutely understandable.

However, Jijuxian seeks personal gain for himself at the cost of hurting Mr. Su's reputation and interests. This behavior is very shameful and also violates Mr. Su's interests.Therefore, on behalf of Mr. Su, I hereby seek compensation of [-] Guan from Jijuxian. "

There was an uproar in and out of the courtyard.
