Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 192: Return to the other body with the way of the other

Wang Hong's eloquent answer won many officials present and nodded their heads frequently, which really expressed our aspirations. Many things are not as simple as you ordinary people imagine, and we also have many difficulties.

In many cases, it is not justice, but trade-offs.

When Wang Hong saw it, he was secretly happy.

If this level can be passed, maybe he will become a hero and be promoted again.

This is really a blessing in disguise, who knows it is not a blessing!

"Compared to last time, Chunren has improved a lot!" Han Qi stroked his beard and smiled.

Fu Bi nodded lightly and said, "With the excuse of urging taxes, it will indeed put a lot of pressure on Zhang San."

When he was speaking, he glanced at Zhang San, seeing that his face was also solemn, and he was also wondering how Zhang San would refute this.

This is actually very difficult.

The truth is still the same.

Taxation is the most important thing. Officials are desperately seeking profit for the court. How can the court be willing to blame officials?

As long as you don't make principled mistakes, even if you encounter such stern and selfless people as Bao Zheng and Zhao Pin, the court will still reuse them.

At worst, they will be relegated to other places first, stay for a year or two, and then be promoted again immediately.

This is a very common operation in officialdom, especially in the Song Dynasty.

Almost all eyes were on Zhang Fei.

"Zhang San?"

Seeing that Zhang San was still thinking, Xu Zhiqian whispered.

"What?"

Zhang Fei turned his head to look at Xu Zhiqian.

Xu Zhiqian said: "It's your turn to ask."

"Really?"

Zhang Fei was thinking about Wei Yushan just now, but he didn't know that Fan Chunren had finished asking.

And that Zhao Pin also mistakenly thought that Zhang Fei was in trouble and was thinking, so he didn't bother them.

The officials on both sides were even more complacent, but they stumped this kid.

But Wang Anshi, Sima Guang, Lu Huiqing and others were extremely calm.

Before, the Kaifeng county government used taxes to put pressure on the imperial court to force the Bianjing Law Firm to be punished. How could Zhang Fei be unprepared.

Oh! They may have misunderstood! Zhang Fei saw the expressions on everyone's faces, and immediately understood. He stood up, put his hands together in front of his chest, and made a gesture of cupping his hands.

Everyone laughed, this kid is finally sensible.

Fan Chunren used this to mock Zhang Fei just now.

Wang Hong was even more disdainful, thinking, you only know how to salute now, it's already too late.

Suddenly there was a sound of "Smash it", and everyone took a closer look, it turned out that this guy was drinking tea with a teacup.

Xu Zhiqian didn't pay attention, she couldn't help laughing "puchi", rolled her eyes a little, and said that people are small-minded, but you are not big-minded. Pursing her red lips, she put a document in front of Zhang Fei.

Zhao Pindu shook his head speechlessly.

This brat.

"Hi cool!"

After Zhang Fei put down the teacup, he even wiped his mouth, and then he stopped being polite. You bit me and used this to mock me, it really doesn't make sense. Then he asked Wang Hong, who was so angry that his mouth was twisted: "The magistrate Wang just mentioned Bianjing Law Firm."

The first round of questioning between the two just now was not difficult at all. Wang Hong is also full of confidence now, and feels that he has entered the state.

That's it?

"Yes."

Wang Hong nodded, in a relaxed mood, he even teased Zhang Fei, "You should know this matter better than anyone else, isn't it because of this that you planned to take revenge on me?"

...Fan Chunren glanced at Wang Hong worriedly, don't get carried away, this kid is very difficult to deal with in court.

Although he played well just now, he knew in his heart that Zhang Fei had probably already guessed his plan, so he was still a little uneasy.

Zhang Fei was surprised and said: "Is this how Wangzhi County is judged? Everything is guesswork. If you judge the belly of a villain with the heart of a gentleman, then everyone is a gentleman. If you judge a gentleman with the heart of a villain The belly, that is really a villain who everyone must take revenge on."

Wang Hong said angrily: "It's unreasonable, how dare you satirize me with your little pen."

Zhang Fei laughed and said, "I didn't say that, you admitted it yourself."

"You."

Crack!

Zhao Pin patted the gavel and warned: "Try not to talk about things that have nothing to do with this case in court."

"Yes."

Zhang Fei's smile faded, and he asked again: "The county magistrate Wang said just now that the Bianjing law firm's tax calculation business has hindered the county government from urging taxes."

"I object."

Fan Chunren immediately stood up, "Presiding officer, Zhang San's question has nothing to do with this case."

Zhang Fei immediately said: "The two eucalyptus are closely related, I will prove it later."

As soon as these words came out, many people showed surprise.

What is the relationship between these two eucalyptus?

Zhao Pin pondered a little, and said: "Just now Wang Zhixian said that it was because of this that it hindered him from urging taxes, so that it affected his attitude towards Geng Ming, so I feel that Bianjing Law Firm The tax calculation has a certain relationship with this.”

Fan Chunren sat down.

Qian Wei said in a low voice: "Could it be that he wants to take this opportunity to review the case for his law firm?"

Fan Chunren nodded and said, "It's possible."

Qian Yi said: "But it is very difficult, after all, that eucalyptus is the court's judgment."

Fan Chunren frowned, he expected that Zhang Fei would definitely want to take revenge on Wang Hong, but he didn't expect that Zhang Fei would have to turn over the matter.

Zhao Pin said to Zhang Fei again: "You continue to ask."

Zhang Fei nodded slightly, and then asked Wang Hong: "Wang Zhi County, can you explain this case in general."

Wang Hong snorted, "Don't you know yourself?"

Zhang Fei frowned and said: "This is not the Kaifeng county government office. What the magistrate Wang has to do is to answer every reasonable question I have, instead of questioning me."

Okay, okay! Don't fall into my hands next time. A flash of anger flashed in Wang Hong's eyes. After thinking for a while, he replied: "At that time, I suddenly learned that many people refused to pay taxes. So I sent someone to inquire, and found that it was the ear pen of Bianjing Law Firm. , to promote a tax calculation business in the county. They hinted to the people that the imperial court collected more taxes from them. If you ask them to calculate taxes, you can pay a lot less tax, which leads some people to refuse to pay taxes.

In addition, they used Zhang San's name to intimidate the tax collectors. Because Zhang San's notoriety spread far and wide, many government officials did not dare to urge taxes again, for fear of getting involved in a lawsuit. In desperation, the official ordered them all to be arrested and punished with moss as a warning. However, it seems that it is not very useful. "

Zhang Fei nodded and asked: "Just now Wang Zhixian said that the ear pen of Bianjing Law Firm implied that the people refused to pay taxes. Can Wang Zhixian explain in detail how they hinted?"

…Wang Hong hesitated for a while before answering: "They told the people that as long as they go to their office to calculate taxes, they can guarantee that they will not pay an extra tax."

Zhang Fei asked: "The meaning of the two sentences is not the same as that of not paying more tax and paying less tax."

Wang Hong said with a smile: "This is the method of some profiteers. They spread instigating words to benefit themselves, but at the same time they know how to evade the law. If they don't pay more taxes, they will naturally mislead the people. I believe that as long as you go to Bianjing Law Firm, you can pay less tax. According to my investigation, there are indeed people who refuse to pay taxes. It is just a fluke, hoping to pay less tax.”

After Wang Hong finished explaining, Fan Chunren immediately stood up and said to Zhao Pin: "The presiding officer, regarding the case of the firm, it was ultimately the court's judgment, and Zhang San also admitted his mistake at that time, and also handed over the matter to Zhao Pin. He paid a fine, and now he uses it to justify himself, which is obviously unfair.”

He obviously wanted to use the imperial court to put pressure on Zhang Fei, because he knew very well in his heart that the case of Bianjing Law Firm was more serious in the judiciary, which was very detrimental to Wang Hong.

Zhang Fei immediately said: "I definitely don't want to explain the truth for myself. The behavior of Bianjing Law Firm at that time was indeed ill-considered and brought some troubles to the court. Even now, I still admit my innocence." Error."

Fan Chunren said: "But your current question obviously means to defend yourself."

Zhang Fei said: "I was wrong, but it doesn't mean that Wangzhi County is right. These are two things."

Fan Chunren said: "At that time, the eucalyptus was judged by the county magistrate Wang. If he was wrong, you were right."

Zhang Fei asked: "Dare to ask Fan Sijian, what evidence do you have to prove that Wangzhi County severely punished the Bianjing Law Firm's ear pen for public, not private."

Fan Chunren said: "Since you have admitted that you made a mistake, the magistrate Wang prevented you from making a mistake. This is not for the sake of the public, and why?"

Zhang Fei asked back: "Many officials use the construction of water conservancy to enrich their own pockets. Yes, he built water conservancy and indeed took care of the people, but can he be ignored?"

Fan Chunren snorted: "You are purely confusing the public, that's not enough."

Zhao Pin saw that it was not a problem for them to fight like this, so he said: "Zhang San, Fan Sijian, come here."

The two came to Zhao Pin.

Zhao Pin warned Zhang Fei in a low voice: "Zhang San, the court has already issued a verdict on the Bianjing Law Firm case. If you continue to struggle, this case will become more complicated."

The case was agreed between the emperor and the prime minister. If you overturn it, the whole case will definitely become very complicated, and power will intervene in the judiciary.

Zhang Fei said: "I definitely don't intend to explain the story for myself, but these two stories are closely related, and I will prove it later."

Zhao Pin thought for a while, and said: "If you can't prove the relationship between the two cases, and let the official find out that you are recounting the case for yourself, the official will directly sentence you to lose."

Zhang Fei nodded: "Yes."

Zhao Pin looked at Fan Chunren again.

Fan Chunren nodded.

Actually, he knew in advance that he couldn't stop him, but he was sure that Zhang Fei was going to tell the story for himself, so he wanted to put pressure on Zhang Fei, and he couldn't let him continue asking so unscrupulously.

…Zhao Pin said: "Go back and continue asking."

Returning to his seat, Xu Zhiqian asked in a low voice, "How is it?"

"It's all expected."

Zhang Fei smiled slightly, glanced at the document on the table, and asked Wang Hong: "Just now Wang Zhixian mentioned that some people refused to pay taxes because of the earmarks of Bianjing Law Firm. How many people?"

Wang Hong thought for a while, and said: "Probably seven or eight households, but if we don't stop it, it will spread soon."

"I agree with that too." Zhang Fei nodded and said, "Then how many acres are involved in these seven or eight households?"

Wang Hongdao: "A hundred acres."

Zhang Fei nodded again, and said: "There are hundreds of acres of land, and there are seven or eight households, but Wangzhi County attaches great importance to it, and decisively enforces the law. It can be seen that Wangzhi County deeply understands the importance of taxation to the country. Taxation is the country's major plan. Does Wangzhi County agree with me?"

Wang Hong looked at Zhang Fei vigilantly, hesitating.

This sounds like a conspiracy!

Zhang Fei asked curiously: "Does this question also need to be considered?"

Wang Hong nodded and said: "Of course, this officer has always attached great importance to the collection of taxes."

Zhang Fei glanced at Wen An again, raised his head and continued to ask: "Just now Wang Zhixian said that he also felt that Geng Ming might have grievances. Presumably Wang Zhixian also carefully read Geng Ming's pleadings several times."

Wang Hong nodded.

Zhang Fei said: "The magistrate Wang should still remember that Geng Ming's pleadings stated that Wei Yushan had at least 3,000 to 10,000 mu of land tax evasion in the past few years."

Wang Hong was stunned for a moment and remained silent.

There was an uproar at the door.

Only Cao Dongdong glanced around guiltily.

Fan Chunren quickly picked up the copy of Geng Ming's pleading paper and looked at it, then looked at Qian Yi depressedly.

Qian Wei whispered: "This is not good!"

Zhang Fei said to Zhao Pin: "The presiding judge should have read Geng Ming's pleadings, right?"

Zhao Pin nodded.

Zhang Fei said: "Is it clearly stated on the pleadings that Wei Yushan has 1,200 mu of fertile land near Luomapo in Kaifeng County without paying taxes, and also marked the specific location."

The cautious Zhao Pin took a closer look again, then nodded, "It is indeed stated."

Zhang Fei asked again: "According to the experience of the presiding judge, will it be difficult for the county government to find out the specific location?"

Zhao Pin shook his head and said: "It's not difficult! Because the county government generally has tax receipts."

"Thank you for the presiding judge." Zhang Fei bowed his hands, then looked at Wang Hong, and asked, "I wonder if Wang Zhi County sent someone to investigate?"

Wang Hong remained silent.

Zhao Pin also looked at Wang Hong suspiciously.

You attach so much importance to the country's major plans, you will punish them severely if there is any disturbance, and you will turn a deaf ear to thousands of acres of land in front of you.

It can be seen that Wang Hong severely punished those ear pens, not for the sake of the country.

"Is there any?" Zhang Fei continued to ask.

Wang Hong shook his head slightly.

Zhang Fei said with a smile: "Wangzhi County pays so much attention to tax collection. A few households just questioned the amount of tax money. Personnel are severely punished.

Then even if Wang Zhixian thinks that the case of Geng Ming happened three years ago, it is difficult to find out, but what is the reason that made Wang Zhixian ignore the thousands of acres of land on the pleadings? In fact, it is not difficult to check, and it will not delay much. "

"I object!"

Fan Chunren stood up anxiously, "This is the same case, and Wang Zhi County may have considered it together, so he ignored it."

Wang Hong nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, I considered it together at that time."

At this time, he is not as calm and calm as before, and he is sweating profusely.

Zhang Fei calmly smiled and said: "Presiding judge, please allow me to call a witness who can prove that Wang Zhixian did not ignore it carelessly, but has another purpose, and this has nothing to do with why he The reason for dismissing Geng Ming’s case is the same.”

"You spitting blood."

After hearing this, Wang Hong stood up excitedly.

Because, this is really nothing!

These are two pieces of eucalyptus, with no relationship between them.

He doesn't even know, what is the relationship between these two eucalyptus?

Zhang Fei looked at him, with vengeance shining in his eyes, I also want to let you taste the great plan of this country.
