Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 21: Relationship is king

Xu Zun, who has believed in the legal system all his life, is the same in educating his children. He has to be reasonable in everything. If he makes mistakes, he will take the initiative to admit his mistakes to his children, which in turn erects his majesty as a father.

Actually, as a father, the best way to educate is to lead by example, there is really no other trick.

Xu Zhiqian, who made a mistake first, can only honestly apologize to Xu Zun, and dare not pursue the matter any further.

However, Xu Zhiqian and Xu Zun have very similar personalities, and they have a clear love and hate. She thinks that although this matter is my fault, that Zhang Fei is definitely not a gentleman, because Zhang Fei's first impression on her is really extremely bad.

I also have to say that the words and deeds of today's gentleman and Zhang Fei are really very different.

"Sister Qian'er!"

As soon as Xu Zhiqian came out of the hall, Qingmei, her personal servant girl, hurried over to greet her, panting slightly: "Sister Qian'er, I just saw that prostitute came back with a woman."

Qing Mei even felt that Zhang Fei was a prostitute. She was sober at the time, seeing Zhang Fei hugging her sister Qian'er and not letting go, even in front of Xu Zun, she was the most arrogant prostitute she had ever seen .

"Really?"

Xu Zhiqian couldn't help frowning slightly.

Qing Mei nodded straightly and said: "There will be no mistakes."

"It's really unreasonable. I don't know how to restrain myself when I live in someone else's house." Based on the impression of Zhang Fei, Xu Zhiqian immediately had a picture in her mind and asked, "Where is he now?"

"It's in the guest room."

"Go! Go and see."

The master and servant walked quickly to the guest room.

"Wait!"

When she came to a corner of the corridor, Xu Zhiqian suddenly grabbed Qing Mei, but looked forward to the left.

Qing Mei followed her gaze, but saw a slender man standing in front of the guest room door, it was the prostitute Zhang San.

"What is he doing outside the house?"

Xu Zhiqian muttered something in a low voice, something was wrong with the picture she had imagined, and asked Qingmei: "Didn't you say that he brought a woman back?"

Ome nodded.

Xu Zhiqian said: "What about the woman?"

Qing Mei shook her head and said, "I don't know either."

Suddenly, a faint "squeak" was heard from over there, but the door opened and a girl came out with a silk handkerchief wrapped around her head. The girl smiled sweetly at Zhang Fei, the two exchanged a few words, they entered the room together, and the door was closed immediately.

This fits the picture very well.

Qing Mei hurriedly said: "Sister Qian'er, look, I am right."

Xu Zhiqian stomped her feet fiercely and said, "I really don't know why Daddy would make friends with such a disciple and still be so fond of him. It seems that Daddy learned badly in Dengzhou."

.

Zhang Fei was completely unaware that he had been spied on, and when he came inside, he took a little look at Fang Yun in front of him, with curved eyebrows and big eyes, like a girl next door, pure and lovely, but just out of prison, His face was still pale, and the bags under his eyes were slightly bruised.

"You are much better than when I first came out." Zhang Fei laughed.

Fang Yun heard this, and when he was about to say something, Zhang Fei said first: "Stop apologizing, staying in prison for a few months is better than staying in the river to feed the fish."

Fang Yun smiled awkwardly, and didn't know whether to nod or shake her head. Suddenly, she seemed to think of something, "Brother Zhang San, I have a heartfelt request."

Zhang Fei frowned slightly, as if he had guessed what she was going to say, and sighed: "Then the Wei brothers left yesterday, I think it's better not to see each other again than your apology."

Although the Wei brothers came to Beijing to testify, they only wanted to repay Zhang Fei. Although they may have some sympathy for A Yun now, it does not mean that they can forgive A Yun for what he did.

I also didn't want to see Ayun again, knowing that Ayun was released from prison today, they set off for Dengzhou yesterday, and Zhang Fei also gave them ten pennies as a reward.

When Fang Yun heard the words, he couldn't hide the guilt in his heart. He lowered his head and said in a low voice, "I see."

Seeing her face full of guilt, Zhang Fei asked, "If you encounter this kind of thing again, would you still do it?"

Fang Yun hurriedly shook his head: "No, I won't do that."

Zhang Fei said: "Why not?"

"Huh?" Fang Yun raised his head and looked at Zhang Fei inexplicably.

Zhang Fei said: "Although it is said that you can correct your mistakes, there is nothing good about it, but first of all, you must know what you did wrong and what you didn't do wrong, so that you can guarantee that you will not overcorrect.

Although I do not approve of the method you chose, nor do the laws of the country, but I appreciate your courage. You are only wrong in choosing to hurt an innocent person, not in your choice to resist. So if this kind of thing happens again, you should continue to fight, but think of a smarter way. "

Fang Yun stared blankly at Zhang Fei.

She is not a person of great evil. When she was in prison, she had already regretted the past and was ready to make atonement, so she had no complaints about it.

As a result, someone suddenly told her that she was not completely wrong, which made her a little bit overwhelmed.

Zhang Fei said with a smile: "The main reason I helped Wei Ada at the beginning was that I hoped to make up for the damage you caused him, so that you would be released from prison in the future, don't bear too much burden, and continue to persevere Be yourself.

If you become a cowardly, timid woman who lets you go, maybe I will hurt you by doing this. "

In fact, when he was researching this case, he admired Ah Yun, because in this era, women who dare to fight are really rare, which is very unusual!

For example, his idol, Li Qingzhao, not only married twice, but also sued the husband of the second marriage to the government.

This is unimaginable at the moment!

Fang Yun frowned: "But I have harmed many people by doing this."

Zhang Fei said: "Didn't I say it, it's just that you chose a wrong method, but you chose to protect yourself, which is not wrong, but commendable.

If you encounter any difficulties in the future and don't know how to deal with them, you can come to me and I will definitely help you. "

Fang Yun couldn't help but look moved, and asked blankly: "Brother Zhang San, why are you so kind to me? You have already saved my life, so you don't owe me anything anymore."

"Because!"

Zhang Fei hesitated for a moment, and said: "Maybe I have said the reason, but you don't understand it. You didn't save my life, but gave me a life."

Fang Yun really didn't understand very well.

Is there a difference between the two?

Zhang Fei didn't know how to explain it, so he just said: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, if you don't mind, you can treat me as your relative, no matter what difficulties you encounter, I will help you."

Fang Yun burst into tears, her parents left one after another, and everything her uncle did to her made her yearn for a relative who could protect her.

Zhang Fei asked: "Don't you want to?"

In fact, in his heart, he has already regarded Ayun as his only relative here.

"No, I do! I do!"

Fang Yun nodded straightly, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, looked at Zhang Fei, and softly called: "Third brother."

Zhang Fei smiled and nodded, and said: "But you have to leave here immediately, go home and continue to be filial to your mother."

Fang Yun has already been set up by the imperial court, and this character setting must be carried out perfectly. If Fang Yun is not in a hurry to go back, it will attract many doubts.

Fang Yun nodded, and asked nervously, "Third brother, will you go back with me?"

Zhang Fei shook his head and said, "I still have to stay here to thank my benefactor for his help."

A look of disappointment flashed in Fang Yun's eyes.

This is the relative I just met, but it's time to say goodbye in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Fei said: "Don't worry, when you go back this time, no one will dare to bully you, including your clan uncles, I will give you another fifteen pennies, then you can be at home as a mother with peace of mind." Keep your filial piety, after you finish your filial piety, you can also come to Bianjing to find me."

Fang Yun hurriedly said: "I can't ask for your money anymore, you have helped me a lot."

Zhang Fei hehe said: "If you really regard me as your relatives, then don't say such unreasonable things."

.

"It turns out that the woman Zhang San brought back is Ah Yun who has just been released from prison."

Xu Zhiqian said thoughtfully.

Uncle Rong in front of her nodded and said: "Yes."

Xu Zhiqian's expression softened a little. Although she has been locked in the house, she is still very clear about what happened outside, and then asked: "This Zhang San did not hesitate to come to Bianjing to fight this lawsuit. , really just to repay the kindness of saving your life?"

Rong Bo said: "It is said that it is so, but the villain is not very clear about it."

Xu Zhiqian said: "Go and do your work first."

"The villain resigns."

"Wait!"

Xu Zhiqian called Uncle Rong again, and said: "You have to pay more attention to that Zhang San, if he wants to bring some dubious people to the mansion, you have to stop immediately, I don't want my father's reputation Lost in the hands of this apprentice."

"Yes, the villain remembers."

.

Over there, Zhang Fei seems to have forgotten about Miss Xu. In fact, his impression of Xu Zhiqian is not very good. He has been by Fang Yun's side for the past two days, helping her adjust her mentality.

Because for Fang Yun, his inner torment is far better than his physical torment.

Two days later, Fang Yun left for Dengzhou.

It happened that Xu Zun was in a hurry to return to Beijing to return to his orders, and he still had some things left in Dengzhou, so he had to send someone to pick them up, and by the way, he escorted Ayun back.

Unexpectedly, the imperial court specially sent someone to **** Fang Yun. Fang Yun is no longer an ordinary criminal. There is a BUFF with a filial daughter on her body.

This was very important in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhang Fei was very relieved that Fang Yun would go back alone, because he knew that no one would dare to provoke her.

The eastern suburbs.

Seeing Fang Yun who had gone far away, looking back again, Zhang Fei hurriedly beckoned, only to see Fang Yun who was parked in the distance passed for a long time before turning around and moving on.

This time Fang Yun didn't look back, and disappeared around the corner at the foot of the mountain after a while.

"Hoo!"

Zhang Fei let out a long breath, his expression seemed to be a lot more relaxed, and he said to himself: "The only thing worth worrying about now is myself. I don't know where to go to file a lawsuit, go back Then go to Engong to inquire about the market, and see how the people of Erbi in Bianliang do business."

"Bookstore?"

Zhang Fei looked at Xu Zun in surprise.

Xu Zun nodded and said: "Because many bookstores wrote pleadings on behalf of others at first, later the government specially granted official documents to these bookstores, allowing them to write pleadings and lawsuits on behalf of others."

"I still need official documents!" Zhang Fei frowned guiltily.

Xu Zun saw his guilty conscience, nodded with a smile and said, "Yes! But your situation is different. You are one of the parties involved in this case. It is not a violation of the rules for me to authorize you to appeal."

The main difference between Erbi and servants is that the former has official documents from the government, and with the permission of the government, they can go to court to argue, while the latter just write pleadings and cannot go to court to argue.

Zhang Fei's advantage is to go to court to argue, this official document is very important to him, so he asked: "Is this official document easy to obtain?"

Xu Zun stroked his goatee and said, "It's not easy to say, and it's not hard to say hard. After all, the government doesn't want lawsuits to become commonplace."

When Zhang Fei heard the situation, it was obvious that if he wanted to obtain a lawyer's license in the Northern Song Dynasty, he didn't need to take an exam, but he had to rely on his relationship with the government. Now that he knew Xu Zun, he couldn't help but look at Xu Zun eagerly. .

Of course Xu Zun understood, he hesitated a little, and when he was about to speak, he suddenly heard someone at the door say: "Sorry, my father can't help you with this favor."

But I saw Xu Zhiqian entering the house.

"Xu Niangzi."

Zhang Fei hurriedly stood up.

Since the hug that day, this is the first time the two have met, although Xu's mansion is not very big.

Zhang Fei looked at her a little bit, her phoenix eyes, willow-leaf eyebrows, a light green dress, revealing her slender, snow-white jade neck, graceful, elegant and dignified. On the contrary, she was a little less charming and charming, and she seemed not so approachable.

Xu Zhiqian nodded slightly, and immediately said: "I'm really sorry, my father has been clean all his life, and never did such favoritism and fraud. I hope Zhang Sanlang can forgive me."

Zhang Fei's face was a little hot, and he hurriedly said: "Miss Xu misunderstood, I was just asking Engong how to apply, not relying on Engong to obtain this official document."

Xu Zhiqian immediately said apologetically: "So I misunderstood, I'm really sorry."

"It's okay!"

Zhang Fei said to Xu Zun again: "If Mr. Benedict has nothing else to do, I'll go back to the house first."

Xu Zun nodded awkwardly and said, "You go."

After Zhang Fei left, Xu Zun immediately frowned and looked at his daughter and said, "What are you doing? It's just an official document, so how can it be considered malpractice for personal gain?"

Xu Zhiqian said: "How can it not be counted? If he is able to apply, then he should apply. Why are you begging Dad again?"

"Who are those Erbi people outside!"

Xu Zun wanted to say that almost all the people in Erbi obtained official documents through relationships, because there were no exams. In fact, many people in Erbi were assistants of the government, and most of them were knives and pens who withdrew from the yamen official.

But Xu Zun felt that if he had to be more serious, it would be regarded as favoritism. After all, it was not within his authority to issue this official document, so he had to find a relationship, so he waved his hand and said, "That's all! Fight with you. With his ability, he doesn't need the help of his father, and he can also get the approval of the government."

"Really?"

Xu Zhiqian smiled slyly, and said: "Daughter doesn't believe it. Now that he has offended the officials of the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and the Court of Justice, who would dare to allow it."

Xu Zun suddenly reacted and said, "So you know."

Xu Zhiqian said: "It is precisely because my daughter knew that I stopped my father from helping him, because the other party will definitely use this to attack my father, and my father's fame throughout his life may be ruined in one fell swoop."

Xu Zun frowned.

Not to mention, it is really possible. At present, Zhang Fei must be the focus of those justices. However, even if he is criticized for this, it is irrelevant, and it will not damage his official career in any way.

Because he supported Zhang Fei, or Zhang Fei supported him.

Xu Zhiqian glanced at Xu Zun and said with a smile, "Dad doesn't have confidence in him anymore?"

Xu Zun squinted at his daughter, and said with a smile, "You look down on him too much. Is this official document more difficult than the previous lawsuit? Don't worry, Dad won't help him, but Daddy believes that he can still get that paper."

Xu Zhiqian snorted, "As long as Daddy doesn't help him, he won't be able to get it."
