Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 202: Neighbor Law

Zhang Fei really went to pee.

Lu Xun said that when a person is peeing, his mind is the most relaxed and suitable for thinking.

This simple lawsuit really made it difficult for Zhang Fei.

But the difficulty is not whether the lawsuit is difficult to fight, he has not considered it carefully, but he found that he gradually deviated from his professionalism.

In his original plan, he took down the Fan Family Bookstore just to make money, not to eradicate the strong and help the weak, and to uphold justice, which was done by the thieves.

He also thought that he had always been like this.

However, when this lawsuit was placed in front of him, he suddenly realized that his original thoughts had changed.

In his thinking, the result justice becomes the first, not money, or procedural justice.

Some things can fool others, but not yourself.

This is very inappropriate.

Why is this happening?

This is actually a very scary thing.

He himself is also seriously thinking about this issue.

Is it infected by Xu Zhiqian?

Apparently not.

He may have scruples, but it's not enough to make him change his whole way of thinking.

In the evening, Zhang Fei and Xu Zhiqian took a carriage together and left Bianjing Law Firm.

"Are you angry?"

Xu Zhiqian could not help asking in a low voice when she saw that Zhang Fei was in a low mood and was silent.

Zhang Fei glanced at her, "It has nothing to do with you."

Xu Zhiqian twitched the corner of her mouth and muttered, "How could it have nothing to do with me."

Zhang Fei smiled wryly, and explained: "Actually, I can keep you from knowing, and the reason why I told you the truth at that time was because..."

"It's because you want me to stop you. Right?" Xu Zhiqian said anxiously.

Zhang Fei nodded and said, "But I shouldn't think so."

Xu Zhiqian asked: "Why? I think you have improved."

"Improve your size." Zhang Fei rolled his eyes: "A lawsuit is not about killing people for money, nor is it about coercion and bribery. It cannot be judged by strength. Just like when I was helping Cao Yanei in a lawsuit, even if Lin Fei was innocent, I had to do my best to help Cao Yanei.”

Xu Zhiqian shook her head when she heard that: "I don't agree with that."

"Why?" Zhang Fei wondered, "I'm not playing crooked ways, I'm talking about the law and reason, as long as I follow the rules, I won the lawsuit, I have no shame in my heart, and if I lose a lawsuit, I have no shame in my heart either. "

Xu Zhiqian snorted softly and said, "The strong don't need to talk about the law and be reasonable. The law is used to protect the weak. Cao Yanei's case was just a special case. But he was only afraid of the Queen Mother Cao's punishment, and It's not about revering the law. In Sanya, Lin Fei is not the only coach who is being bullied, but most of them can only swallow their anger.

Let's talk about the lawsuit between Li Si and Chen Yuteng, without you, Li Si would not have won, but for Chen Yuteng, he doesn't need our help at all, only Li Si needs our help.

There are also Ma Tianhao and Chen Maoqian. They hired you only to avoid being oppressed by the government, not to fear litigation with the people. Someday those idiots won't be telling stories, raising prices, fishing in troubled waters, and fooling the common people. Did Chen Maoqian ask you for help? Only the weak need our help, the strong don't need it at all. "

Her idea always emphasizes the relationship between the strong and the weak. If Cao Yanei is in a lawsuit with Fu Zhishuang, then you can help whoever you want, but once Cao Yanei is in a lawsuit with Lin Fei, she will immediately lean towards Lin Fei.

As for her idea, Zhang Fei has known it for a long time, and the two have argued many times, but no one can convince the other.

But today, Zhang Fei frowned and began to think.

Is this what changed me?

This is not a world where everyone is equal, at least legally.

This is an unequal world.

Like Wei Yushan and the others

Those people can almost ignore the existence of the law. If I don't help Geng Ming, he doesn't need to fear me at all, let alone my help.

Yes!

I am not in a society with a perfect legal system, but in a period of legal construction.

If you want to be able to have a clear conscience and make money happily no matter who you help in the lawsuit. First of all, I have to let them fear the law first, so that the two ends of the law are equal.

Xu Zhiqian glanced at him and saw that he was silent, so she said: "I have decided to help that aunt get justice, and this time I plan to fight myself."

Zhang Fei was stunned, and said in surprise: "Are you going to fight?"

Xu Zhiqian nodded: "The imperial court has allowed me to go to court with you, so of course I have the right to help others in the lawsuit. We agreed at the beginning that I can help people in the lawsuit for free."

Zhang Fei asked: "Can you do it?"

Xu Zhiqian said a little nervously: "Do you think I can do it?"

Zhang Fei was immediately happy: "You don't even have confidence in yourself, so why do you fight?"

Xu Zhiqian said: "I don't have confidence because I have never filed a lawsuit myself, I only watched you fight, and I don't know if I can do it."

Zhang Fei rolled his eyes and said: "At that time, you were asked to show off in court, but you didn't dare. Now you are asking for trouble here."

Xu Zhiqian also had some regrets, and said: "I'm not afraid of going to court, I... I'm just afraid of losing and hurting others."

Zhang Fei was taken aback for a moment, and said: "You have to understand that the most important thing for us in Erbi's lawsuit is to do our best. As for the success or failure, it is decided by the presiding judge, and it is beyond our control."

Xu Zhiqian said: "I understand the truth, but I'm afraid of losing."

Zhang Fei chuckled and said, "In that case, then I'll do it, I've figured out some things just now."

Xu Zhiqian glanced at him, hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I still want to try it myself, and I don't want to always beg you."

As she spoke, she quickly added, "I'm not alienating you, it's just that this is something I've always wanted to do, and I hope I have the ability to do it."

She has been relatively independent since she was a child, and she is not used to always relying on others. She still hopes that she has the ability to do what she wants to do.

Zhang Fei pondered for a while, and then asked: "Then allow me to be your assistant?"

Xu Zhiqian immediately said: "You must be my assistant, after all, I have been your assistant so many times."

Zhang Fei nodded and smiled, "Okay! I'll let you try this time."

Back to Xu's house, Xu Zhiqian told Xu Zun her thoughts.

After Xu Zun listened, he looked at Zhang Fei and said with a smile, "What's the matter? You can't get your Da Er pen for this small lawsuit."

When Zhang Fei heard this address, he wanted to die very much, and hurriedly said: "Where is the father-in-law? In fact, Zhiqian doesn't charge money for the lawsuit. I want to collect money. If the aunt can win the lawsuit, I will pay you." It’s easy to say, if she can’t win, she will have to pay a lawsuit fee, which she may not be able to afford.”

"So that's it." Xu Zun nodded slightly: "Although it is natural to collect money, in many cases, it also depends on the situation. This is also good, Qian'er specializes in helping people with lawsuits for free, and it won't be bad. The rules of your business."

It can be seen that he is partial to his daughter.

Xu Zhiqian excitedly said: "Did Daddy agree?"

Xu Zun said hehe: "When did Daddy stop you from helping others, but you have to do everything according to your ability."

"It's better to be Daddy!"

Xu Zhiqian gave Zhang Fei a slightly contemptuous look.

With an innocent face, Zhang Fei said: "I also support you very much, but I just don't support myself doing this, can this not work?"

"Don't be complacent."

Xu Zhiqian snorted: "When I have accumulated experience, I will never persuade you again. I will defeat you in the courtroom and make you feel convinced."

Zhang Fei nodded with a smile and said, "I'm ambitious, I'm looking forward to it. It will be a pleasure for us and my wife to earn two shares of money in a lawsuit."

Xu Zhiqian

He said: "Don't even think about it, I won't take money."

「.!」

Zhang Fei's expression froze, and he gave Xu Zhiqian a blank look: "It's really boring!"

Xu Zun also stroked his beard and smiled: "I am also looking forward to it."

Xu Zhiqian asked again: "How does Daddy see this lawsuit?"

Xu Zun picked up the copy again and looked at it carefully, and said with a frown: "The law of relatives and neighbors has existed since ancient times, but in our dynasty, some changes have taken place, and some details have been added. It's close to kissing."

Zhang Fei asked, "Really?"

Xu Zun asked, "Don't you know?"

Zhang Fei said awkwardly: "I usually go to have a look when I need it."

Xu Zun smiled, and then explained: "My dynasty is still different from the previous dynasty in many ways, just like the citizens of Bianjing, the rich and the poor have no fixed status, and the fields and houses have no fixed owners. If you have money, you can buy them." If you have no money, you can sell. Many times, you can only rely on your neighbors, not your relatives. Therefore, when we amended the Law on Relatives and Neighbors, we raised the priority of neighbors.”

The Song Dynasty was a highly commercial society. Citizens did not have too many clan fetters, so everyone began to emphasize freedom and efficiency. It was too troublesome to sell a house and go to relatives to ask first. Supplement appropriately.

In some cases, it is possible to dispense with relatives.

In addition, in terms of price, the Song court also favored market prices, and relatives could not buy at low prices.

Zhang Fei frowned and said, "But this is not a house sale, but an inheritance."

Xu Zun nodded and said, "You are quite right. This is also the difficulty of this lawsuit. His mother's actions seem to be reasonable, but in fact it is difficult to be protected by the law. This ancestral house still has to be passed on Future generations. Although the law of relatives and neighbors also applies to inheritance rights, buying and selling is still different from inheritance. It is difficult for the neighbor to obtain inheritance rights while her son is still alive.”

Xu Zhiqian said: "But his son is so unfilial, then can we use filial piety to fight this lawsuit, Zhang San also used filial piety to help Fang Yun escape."

"Of course I can get it, I also think there is a certain chance of winning."

Xu Zun nodded, and said again: "But the government can't just consider this lawsuit, but also consider the issue of patriarchal clan. If this precedent is set, will it conflict with patriarchal clan, so you just prove her There is no guarantee that the son is unfilial, and the government will judge you to win. Unless you can convince the government that such a judgment will not affect the patriarchal clan, the chances of winning will be greater."

In ancient times, two laws went hand in hand, the state owned the law, and the township had the patriarchal clan. In fact, there were many contradictions between the two.

In the process of revising the law of relatives and neighbors, we actually encountered resistance from the patriarchal clan. Today's neighbors are almost, not completely equal to relatives.

Yes!

This son is very unfilial, but if you make an exception for the right of inheritance, it will have a great impact on the sect, and even cause social unrest.

The judge must consider this issue.

Xu Zhiqian looked at Zhang Fei again.

Zhang Fei said: "Don't worry, we should still do the same as before, do our homework first, and we will always find flaws."

Xu Zhiqian nodded slightly.
