Northern Song Dynasty Justice

Chapter 161 Education
"well said!"

Zhao Xu, who was sitting in the hall, was very excited when he heard Zhang Fei's argument. He stood up and shook his fist, and said angrily: "These censors usually like to confuse the public. If you talk about the ancestral law, they will talk about the ancestral system." , if you talk about the ancestral system, they will talk about the ancestral law. Now it can be regarded as a lesson for them, good! It's really happy."

Young and energetic, he didn't care about so much, he just expressed his feelings directly.

Seeing Lan Yuanzhen next to him, he just smiled and said nothing.

Zhao Xu really grew up watching him, and he didn't suffer less from this before!

After all, he was young, and the court was full of veterans from the three dynasties, and he had to be respectful to anyone he spoke to, and these censors and admonishers never gave him face, and this bad breath had been held in his heart for a long time.

Zhang Fei's helplessness, pain, and depression undoubtedly slapped Fan Chunren loudly both positively and negatively. Fan Chunren, who was used to standing in the middle, wanted to find a hole in the ground and didn't know how to refute.

Although his previous limit was changed one by one, and he built the prototype of the court of later generations, but that was just a mistake. His purpose was not to pursue the court structure, but to face Wang Anshi directly.

And his habitual thinking is only limited to court defense.

Court debate is to quote the scriptures, it is to talk about the way of Confucius and Mencius.

Obviously, he not only confuses ancestral system with ancestral law, but also confuses morality with law.

When you fight a lawsuit, you fight according to the law.

Xiao Gui Cao Sui?

Funny you mean it.

And the conservatives on the side were not as complacent as they were just now. They finally pulled Wang Anshi out, but they rejected the first question.

Moreover, this issue is very critical, and many people feel deeply sorry for it being abolished like this!
Wang Anshi didn't say a word of nonsense, and sat in the best seat to watch the trial.

hateful!

In fact, Wang Anshi is also very upset, I will answer this question, maybe the insult is not as strong as yours, but I just sit here stupidly, this is not my Wang Anshi style!

Han Qi turned his head to Fu Bi and said in a low voice, "What do you think, Mr. Fu?"

Fu Bi pondered for a while, and sighed: "In this court, the law must be put first."

Otherwise, that kid will talk about Fan Gong again later, and it will be endless.

Han Qi thought so too. After all, the emperor had already established the ancestral law, so it had to be judged according to the law. The key ancestral system did not apply to the court, because the ancestral system had been changed many times, and he coughed: "The ancestral system is The ancestral system and the law of the ancestors are the laws of the ancestors, which cannot be generalized."

At this point, he paused for a while, "Unless it can be proved that there is a necessary relationship between them, otherwise, it is better not to discuss the ancestral system, so as not to confuse the public."

Hearing this, Fan Chunren sat back resentfully, blushing really like a monkey's butt.

Han Qi looked at Zhang Fei again.

Zhang Fei stood up, but he was not used to standing in the middle.

Xu Zhiqian at the side immediately sent two questioning looks.

Zhang Fei waved his hands below, saying that he didn't need any copywriting, because he was not prepared for it.

Xu Zhiqian also knew it in her heart, and the phoenix's eyes couldn't help showing a trace of worry.

Zhang Fei asked Qian Wei, "As the censor, Qian Yushi is said to have the power to hear the news."

"I object."

Fan Chunren immediately stood up and blurted out, "Is this related to this case?"

If you don't make me feel better, how can I make you feel better.

Conservative officials behind him clenched their fists to cheer him on.

Don't give face, oppose to death.

Zhang Fei explained calmly: "Qian Yushi is the plaintiff in this case, so why can't he ask about his motives and reasons for suing?"

Fan Chunren was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "But what does this have to do with Wenfeng's power?"

Zhang Fei said: "I have to find out whether Qian Yushi has confused the court complaint with the impeachment."

Fan Chunren snorted, "How could Qian Yushi not understand this?"

Zhang Fei said with a smile: "Fan Sijian, speculation is not allowed in the courtroom, and everything must be based on evidence. If you make it clear, you will be clear, and if you are not clear, you will not be clear. Then why don't you just sentence me to lose? Happy?"

Han Qi also said: "There is nothing wrong with this question."

Qian Wei also gave Fan Chunren a restless look.

Fan Chunren sat back awkwardly.

It seems that you have the final say!

Qian Wei looked directly at Zhang Fei, nodded and said, "Our censor is the power to hear the wind."

Zhang Fei said: "Is every memorial Qian Yushi got based on the law?"

Fan Chunren was about to make a move again, but he didn't know whether he should object or not.Suddenly someone behind him said to him: "Calm down, don't be impatient, let's see how he asks, you are so impatient, it will only make people laugh."

Fan Chunren looked back and saw Sima Guang nodded slightly.

He couldn't help taking a deep breath to calm himself down, thinking, yes!After all, I was a little impatient. This lawsuit is different from court defense. Let me see how he asks.

Qian Wei shook his head and said, "Probably not."

Zhang Fei asked again: "I don't know what it is based on?"

Qian Wei replied in an orderly manner: "It is based on the level of morality, the pros and cons of governing the country, the gains and losses of the monarch, and the laws of the court."

Zhang Fei nodded, and asked again: "Then Qian Yushi agrees, there are many ills in the country at present, including the three redundant problems?"

Qian Wei hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Zhang Fei asked again: "So when faced with these problems, should the officials do nothing, or should they do something?"

Qian Wei said: "Of course we should do something."

Zhang Fei said: "Do these actions include making some policy adjustments and personnel transfers?"

Qian Wei hesitated for a while, and said: "It depends on how to adjust and mobilize."

Zhang Fei said: "The question I am asking is whether it should be adjusted or transferred? You just need to answer yes or no."

Qian Wei hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

To deal with problems, regardless of whether the policy is good or bad, it must be adjusted and mobilized.

Zhang Fei asked again: "Does the government have the legal power to set up temporary agencies to deal with national emergencies?"

Qian Wei said: "Although the government has power, the country has Zhongshu sects and three privy secretaries. Why should there be another department?"

Zhang Fei said: "Thus, Qian Yushi is acknowledging that the government has the legal power to set up a temporary agency to deal with national emergencies, but he is suspicious, puzzled, and puzzled by this behavior."

Qian Wei glanced at Zhang Fei suspiciously, then nodded.

Zhang Fei said with a smile: "I believe that Qian Yushi is absolutely dedicated to his duties, which should be questioned. But it can also be seen that Qian Yushi is only based on his own duties as a censor to sue the Department of the Second House of Regulations for violating the ancestral law. The law is not based on the law itself, and the purpose of doing so is only to put pressure on the officials in order to achieve their own political goals. Qian Yushi feels that this move is not good for the country, not good for the people."

"I object."

Before Qian Wei could answer, Fan Chunren stood up excitedly and shouted loudly.

This time he was really in a hurry.

"I'm done asking."

Zhang Fei sat down directly, and looked at Fan Chunren with a smile.

Xu Zhiqian lowered her head and said excitedly: "Your question is really wonderful."

Zhang Fei said regretfully: "It's really not well prepared, so I just asked casually, otherwise, I could have asked him to doubt the way of Confucius and Mencius."

Xu Zhiqian doubted, "Is it true?"

Zhang Fei said: "Of course it's true. These censors and admonishers are always used to opening their mouths. If they say too much, they will fail. If they can get me these evidences, believe it or not, they will hang themselves when they go back."

Wen Yanbo couldn't help being frustrated: "Is it so difficult to defeat Zhang San in court?"

Sima Guang was silent.

Lu Gong wrote with emotion: "It's not just difficult, it's a nightmare."

Zhang Fei's question is completely against their inertial thinking.

They never expected that the responsibility of Yushi would be such a big loophole.

After this questioning, everyone knows that you, Qian Yi, came to sue for political purposes, not for the law. Is it illegal, but you, Qian Yi, think that this is not good for the country, so you come here to sue, it's just a trifle!

But above the court, there are no pros and cons, no gains and losses, only whether it is illegal or not.

The grounds for this complaint are not tenable. Are you still ashamed to file a lawsuit?

Han Qi and Fu Bi shook their heads.

This answer is simply a mess, which is tantamount to not calling oneself.

Han Qi looked at Fan Chunren again, brat, fight yourself, don't embarrass your father.

Fan Chunren also realized that the situation was very unfavorable to him. He took a deep breath, stood up, recalled Zhang Fei's questioning skills just now, and asked Wang Anshi again: "Scholar Wang, can you explain it to us in detail?" The Department of Regulations of the Second Government was established."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Zhang Fei, only to see that kid was still whispering to Xu Zhiqian, and he was relieved a little.

Wang Anshi replied: "The main responsibility of the Department of Regulations of the Second Government is to preside over reforms. It can be summed up in one sentence, which is to change customs and legislate standards, so as to benefit the world."

Fan Chunren nodded slightly, and asked again: "Since it is called the Department of Regulations of the Second Mansion, it must have some connection with the Zhongshu and the Privy Council!"

"I object."

Zhang Fei stood up and said: "Fan Sijian concluded that the establishment of the Regulations Department of the Second Mansion is related to Zhongshumenxia and the Privy Council based on his name alone. This is too childish."

Fan Chunren ignored him, but asked Wang Anshi directly: "I wonder if the establishment of the Regulations Department of the Second Government involves administrative power?"

Zhang Fei didn't care, and sat back.

Xu Zhiqian whispered: "This question is terrible!"

Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, I have just explained it."

Xu Zhiqian asked curiously, "You already guessed that he would ask this question?"

Zhang Fei said: "This is the biggest loophole in this case, can I not think of it?"

This system is the most ambiguous part of the Regulations Department of the Second Mansion. No one knows what power this Regulations Department has. Zhao Xu just gave an explanation for presiding over the reform.

The conservatives looked at Wang Anshi excitedly and nervously.

I hope that Wang Anshi will make a mistake.

The answer to this question is wrong.

It's really a great opportunity!
Wang Anshi shook his head and said, "Not involved."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar among the crowd.

Su Shi frowned: "This Wang Jiefu is no better than that Qian Yushi!"

Fan Chunren couldn't hide the joy on his face, and asked again: "Does it involve financial power?"

Wang Anshi shook his head and said, "Not involved."

"Is it related to military and political power?"

"not involving."

Wang Anshi shook his head to himself.

Fan Chunren couldn't help being overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "I'm done asking."
