Northern Song Dynasty Justice

Chapter 153

In fact, when this incident first happened, Zhang Fei also felt very confused and scared.

Because he cannot make the decision on this matter, even if he is willing to give up, Wang Anshi will not be willing. If he had not communicated with Wang Anshi in advance, Wang Anshi would have asked for a postponement of the trial in court.

Fang Yun is still in danger.

It was Xu Zun's words that woke him up.

This is a lawsuit, not a court debate, nor is it a traditional power game.

Since it is a lawsuit, it is purely a legal issue.

If it's a legal issue, you have to follow the law. If you violate the law of your ancestors, it doesn't matter. Just admit your mistake, change your name, or change your expression.

Of course Wang Anshi agreed.

This is simply a sure win, and there are risks in going to court anyway.

Moreover, it happened to be a good opportunity to recruit troops and recruit some young officials who really supported the new law into the Department of Regulations of the Second Government.

This is a friend in adversity.

In good times, everyone wants to rely on you, but in times of crisis, those who are willing to support you are naturally trustworthy.

"Sanlang, what... what does this mean?"

Looking at the contract, Fan Li was very confused.

The Department of Regulations and Regulations of the Second Government hired them Bianjing Law Firm to file a lawsuit with the imperial court?
This..

Never encountered such a situation!
Didn't even think about it.

Zhang Fei laughed and said, "Isn't it clearly written on it, are the members illiterate?"

"Of course I know all these words, but..." Fan Li's scalp was almost scratched, but he couldn't understand these words together, and asked, "How should I fight this lawsuit?"

"How to fight?" Zhang Fei smiled: "It depends on how they want to fight. The soldiers come to fight the enemy, and the water comes to the earth. I plan to play with them slowly. If the lawsuit of a thousand cases ends too soon, People will think we are scamming money."

play with them slowly?

Fan Li sucked in a breath of air, as if the more he played, the more he played.

Can you really do this?
Zhang Fei also knew that this kind of thing was very difficult for him, so he said: "Don't be afraid, we are also helping the government to file a lawsuit. Once, a lifetime is in vain!"

Fan Li dreamed of helping the emperor to file a lawsuit with the imperial court.

This..

This is really quite exciting!
Zhang Fei asked suddenly: "That's right! How is the business in the store?"

Fan Li was taken aback, and sighed: "Can this be better? To be honest, we have never done this kind of business. When it is good, we can earn thousands of coins a day. No money was received, not even a customer."

Zhang Fei frowned, and asked again: "Then how did this person recruit?"

Fan Li sighed, "It's all the same."

Zhang Fei frowned, and sighed: "It's impossible to go on like this!"

He went to court for the development of the firm, but as soon as he went to court, the business would be cut off once. If he keeps doing this, who would dare to come here.

Scared to death.

The key is that Zhang Fei can't give much.

As long as Li Guozhong and the others also develop tax calculation business, they will be able to take away these businesses soon.

Although they are relatively weak, they are relatively stable in the end.

Fan Li said dejectedly, "Then what can I do?"

You play so big, who dares to come!
They just wanted to calculate a tax, but they offended most of the court officials. The officials will cover you, but who will cover them!
The risk is not directly proportional to the benefit!

Zhang Fei took a look at Fan Li and thought to himself, these wealthy businessmen and citizens are all very shrewd and good at adapting to the wind, and they are extremely unstable customers. Now that our foundation is not stable, we cannot rely on them. We must develop Only a stable basic market can avoid this roller coaster phenomenon.Stable basic disk..

After thinking for a while, he said to Fan Li: "I will take care of this matter, you can recruit people at ease."

Fan Li asked, "Aren't you supposed to deal with the lawsuit?"

Zhang Fei said: "That's just a small problem."

".?"

But Fan Li doesn't need to feel inferior because of this, he is afraid, he doesn't understand, it's all right, and it's only natural.

Because most of the officials in the DPRK and China didn't understand it, and they didn't know what to do next?
In the past, the basic process of this kind of thing was to report to the censor and the admonisher, and then the prime minister came out, quoted the scriptures, analyzed the pros and cons, provided arguments, provided evidence, and finally forced the emperor to withdraw his order.

This is good!
But now this set of procedures is abolished.

useless.

Regarding this set of procedures, the emperor just said, you said that this system is illegal for the Second House Regulations Division, right?

Then let's go to court!
Go to court to argue, if you win, then let's change it!
You are so eloquent and full of confidence, it is impossible to be afraid of going to court to argue!

This led to the censor and admonisher being unable to use their strength!

Court of Justice.

"The official is the king of a country. It's ridiculous to play such a rogue trick. If we can't stop it in time, we will be in vain as a minister."

Fan Chunren roared furiously.

Sima Guang glanced at him and said, "Fan Sijian be careful what you say."

Liu Shu hurriedly said: "In my opinion, it must be Wang Anshi who bewitched the officials to make them do such deviant things. But we must not let Wang Anshi succeed. If so, this country has no laws and no family. Family rules will surely bring chaos to the world."

Wen Yanbo glanced at Liu Shu, and said, "Didn't you understand just now, the officials are going to take this matter to justice."

Fan Chunren said: "In fact, we are not afraid of resorting to justice. This is also a way to solve the problem, but the problem is what if we win the lawsuit. The official will just change their name at that time. It will be useless."

Sima Guang glanced at them and said, "Then it's better to let it go, it's according to my opinion!"

"How could it be forgotten."

Fan Chunren interrupted him directly, "If this precedent is set, then it's fine. At that time, the officials can do whatever they want, and no one can stop it."

Sima Guang originally wanted to say that they didn't care about this matter. After all, Wang Anshi had just set up a temporary organization before he started reforming the law.

It's better to wait for the new law to come out. If the new law comes out and it really benefits the country and the people, then what face do you have to stay in the court?

But when things got to this point, it would be impossible to persuade them to back down.

In fact, this has already involved the dispute between the monarchy and the ministerial power. If it is compromised like this, it will severely damage the power of the admonisher and the censor.

Not to mention that Fan Chunren and the others refused to agree, even if they agreed, the rest of the ministers would not agree. This is equivalent to vomiting out what they ate.

This is so uncomfortable.

Sima Guang thought for a while, and said: "But the officials have made it very clear that if you refuse to accept it, you can only continue to resort to justice. Apart from this, there is no other way."

The emperor is so enlightened (arrogant), if you refuse to accept it, sue me.

Relying on your mouth is nothing.

Then you can only sue him.

Fan Chunren was about to say that it was meaningless, he just changed his name!

Wen Yanbo raised his hand to stop him, and then asked Sima Guang: "Junshi, if we win, can we break the law by breaking the law? If we can break the law by breaking the law, we can prevent the officials from constantly changing their names to promote this matter." .”

Sima Guang thought for a while, nodded and said, "Accordingly, this should be possible. After all, there are almost no laws and regulations related to this."

Wen Yanbo nodded slightly, and said: "Since that's the case, let's fight another lawsuit. After all, we really won the battle last time."

Sima Guang seemed a little hesitant. Wang Anshi still had Zhang San behind him, and he was the one who broke the law. Could he not have thought of this?

But it was hard for him to say that, so he looked at Fan Chunren and the others.

Fan Chunren hesitated for a while, and said: "We are not afraid of going to court, we just want to stop the officials from doing this wanton."

Liu Shu suddenly asked, "But where do we go to litigate?"

This sentence immediately stunned everyone sitting there.

Yes!

Where do I go to sue?
We ourselves are the highest judges of Song Dynasty.

If it weren't for the government on the opposite side, we could have won directly.

Only officials are above the Supreme Judge.

Going to sue the government again, and the defendant is the government again, isn't this a closed loop?

This..

After thinking about it, Sima Guang said: "We can only invite the officials to set up a court temporarily in the court, and then assign someone to try it."

Liu Shu asked again: "Then who should judge?"

The judges are here too.

Let's try!

It is impossible for the other party to agree!

Wen Yanbo sighed: "It seems that we can only continue to invite Fu Gong."

However, this seems to be just their wishful thinking. Most officials are unwilling to resort to justice again. We have already won. It is the emperor and Wang Anshi who don't talk about martial arts and play this trick. If we resort to justice here, wouldn't it be right? It's in its arms.

The DPRK and China are arguing over this.

Ask the emperor to convene a meeting to conduct court debates.

Shenzong has always maintained a law-abiding attitude. If you sue for breaking the law, you should go to justice, or do you mean to let me judge?
The emperor's attitude made them very depressed.

Very inclusive, very open, very fair, very just!

But Wang Anshi just said a word to the outside world, no time to argue with you, please find my pen for judicial issues.

However, Chen Shengzhi, who is in charge of the Regulations Department of the Second Government, expressed panic about this.

He has never seen this kind of play before.

political affairs hall.

"Jiefu, is it okay to keep making trouble like this?" Chen Shengzhi asked a little anxiously.

Wang Anshi sighed: "Brother Chen, to be fair, what did I do wrong? Is it justified for them to make such a fuss?"

Chen Shengzhi nodded and said: "They are indeed a little unreasonable, but there is no way to make trouble like this."

Wang Anshi said: "But if we make trouble with them, we can't do anything. The officials entrust us to reform the law, make advantages and eliminate disadvantages, instead of arguing with them. In addition, I have entrusted Bianjing Law Firm to help We deal with these issues. We have to hurry up and prepare for the new law."

Chen Shengzhi said: "This matter has not been clarified, can we implement the new law?"

Wang Anshi said: "Of course it can! According to the law, the imperial court has not ruled that our establishment of the Second House Regulations violates the law of the ancestors, so of course we have the right to implement the new law."

Chen Sheng had a question mark on his face.

Is that okay?
