Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 118: Whatever you want

Cao Dongdong and Ma Xiaoyi belong to the kind of people who are looking for excitement when they are idle, and ordinary thieves would not go to them. Now that they have finally met a few, they want to make gestures. Still not satisfied, Zhang Fei suddenly said that he would send these few to Kaifeng Mansion.

This has aroused Cao Dongdong, Ma Xiaoyi's great interest. Ever since, these two teasers escorted Niu Beiqing, Feng Nanxi, and Longshan to Kaifeng Mansion with drums and gongs.

Relying on Cao Dongdong's identity, he knocked on the door of Kaifeng Mansion. ...It is already the third watch at this time.

Lu Gong, who had already gone to bed, hurriedly got up again and rushed to Kaifeng Mansion in a hurry.

"What's going on?" Lu Gong said to Huang Gui with an anxious expression on his face, "I heard that the historian has a new clue?" Contradiction, the contradiction between innovation and conservative factions.

And these two major contradictions are the most acute contradictions in feudal society. This is unsolvable. It's still here now.

This is an extra problem, and it has come to Kaifeng Mansion again, Lu Gong will really go crazy. He managed to throw this case to Dali Temple before, went around and went back to Kaifeng Mansion.

It's really haunting! The current situation, if not done well, will be out of control. He was also extremely nervous, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

Huang Gui nodded and said: "Just now Cao Yanei and Ma Xiaoyi sent these three people, saying that these three people tried to steal the sister-in-law from Zhang San's house."

"Stealing...stealing sister-in-law?" Lu Gong's work is unknown. Huang Gui hurriedly said: "That's what Cao Yanei said. After our cross-examination, it turns out that the names of these three people are Feng Nanxi, Niu Beiqing, and Long Shan." Lu Gong frowned and said, "These three names sound familiar!" Huang Gui said: " They are the ones who escorted the official silver with Shi Dalang."

"Yes, yes, yes! I remember now." Mr. Lu slapped his forehead several times, and asked again: "Didn't it mean that they are all dead? Or, are they really the ones who stole the official money?" The sentence was dereliction of duty at the time, but since the body was not found, the government also reserved the possibility of self-stealing.

Huang Gui shook his head and said: "Prefect, this case is not that simple." After saying that, he handed some confessions to Lu Gong for writing,

"This is their confession." After reading it, Mr. Lu couldn't help saying angrily: "It's really unreasonable, you go and find Zhang Fei for me right away."... Fourth watch.

Zhang Fei came to Kaifeng Mansion. At this time Li Kai also rushed to Kaifeng Mansion.

"Xiaomin has met Li Tongpan, Lu Zhifu."

"...!" Duke Lu and Li Kai looked at Zhang Fei without saying a word. Zhang Fei didn't make a sound.

Mr. Lu suddenly lost his momentum, sighed and said: "Zhang San, Zhang San, you have really worked hard to tease such a big circle, but you still want to help them avenge their grievances!" Zhang Fei pretended to be confused and said: "Xiaomin doesn't know what the magistrate is talking about?" Li Kai snorted, "Then Longshan is the groom you were going to from Baifan Building before, your wife and Shi Erlang both know him, don't you know?" Zhang Fei ouch He said: "I'll tell you why Longshan left as soon as Shi Erlang came to my house. So that's what happened! It's so dangerous! It's so dangerous!" Just this acting?

Li Kai didn't want to watch it anymore, the lazy yamen servant at the door, his acting skills are ten thousand times better than him! How can Mr. Lu believe it? You have too many loopholes. He doesn't believe that Zhang Fei used all his rigor in the lawsuit.

"It seems that you don't want to talk about it." Zhang Fei said: "It's not that Xiaomin doesn't want to say it, but I don't know where to start. Xiaomin also wants to know the truth." Lu Gong nodded and said: " Since you don't want to say it, then you can go back!"

"Xiaomin resigns." After Zhang Fei left, Li Kai couldn't help saying: "It seems that we wrongly blamed him before. It turns out that he didn't come to trouble us, but to help us reduce the burden." The layout is full of loopholes, obviously I want to tell them that this is not a conspiracy, this is the condition, I only want the truth.

If you don't give me justice, then I will never end with you. Anyway, I'm just an ass, at worst, I'm going to die.

You are different. Lu Gong wrote, but sighed: "Then Wang Jiefu is right, many problems have reached the point where they have to be dealt with." Why did Zhang Fei make such a simple case so complicated? His Lu Gong wondered in his heart. Everyone should be clear!

If you don't make such a fuss, will the Kaifeng government take it so seriously? Won't. This is definitely institutionalized robbery. If this law is not changed, it will be difficult for the government to judge.

But now it's different. That night, the Kaifeng Mansion ordered people to arrest and interrogate the cao officer who was escorted by the official bank.

And at dawn, the news spread throughout the city. For the court officials, they don't think it's an extra problem, but they think it's another village!

This lawsuit has been fought until now, and the emperor's statement is already very unfavorable to them at the political level.

If they can quickly return to criminal affairs at this time, it will of course be very beneficial to them!

The key point is that they are not stupid, Zhang Fei clearly wants to scare them. You said it earlier! Why make such a big deal.

Don't you just want the truth? Don't you just want a Cao Guan? Are you going to pierce the sky? As a result, all the ministers in the DPRK and China were filled with righteous indignation and awe-inspiring justice.

Strict investigation! Must be strictly investigated! Be sure to check clearly and clearly. Never let a bad guy go.

It can be said that it is a common enemy! They have only one request, to end this eucalyptus quickly. For such a small case, with the support of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, Kaifeng Mansion naturally let go.

Who dares to stop? Arrogant transshipment company? The transport envoys were the first to take the initiative to plead guilty. You should know that the results have not yet been found out.

After some severe torture, all the Cao officials were recruited. A total of five officials were involved in this case, and the masterminds were Chen Jing, the magistrate of the Duzhi Division, Liu Shang, the warehouse manager of the Sinong Temple, and three minor officials from the Transit Department.

Kaifeng Prefecture.

"When our people arrived, they had all hanged themselves." Huang Gui said to Lu Gong.

Lu Gong said in surprise: "So fast?" Huang Gui didn't make a sound, but just nodded. Mr. Lu frowned again and asked, "Are you sure it was suicide?" Huang Gui nodded and said, "I've checked at Wuzuo, and it's all confirmed." Mr. Lu looked solemnly at the five bodies in front of him, which were covered with white cloth. After a while, he couldn't help sighing: "If Zhang Fei hadn't sued the court first, this case would be really hard to break!"...Chuigong Hall.

"Five thousand taels! Five thousand taels can make my ministers seek wealth and kill them, so what use are you waiting for?" Zhao Xu threw the Kaifeng mansion's memorial to the bottom and became furious in the hall.

This is really not pretending. He is really angry. It is already too much for the court to confiscate the house at every turn, but there is still a law to follow. side effect.

But the truth is that some people tried to confiscate the wealth of the servants in order to enrich their own pockets. Tang Jie and other ministers from relevant departments immediately stood up and pleaded guilty.

This made them all angry and ashamed. Too much. Wang Anshi suddenly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, have you ever thought about why this little judge and a warehouse official dared to kill people like nothing?" Zhao Xu immediately asked: "What do you think?" Wang Anshi said: "Your Majesty It is an evil law to think that everything is based on the law. Those corrupt officials know that the court usually does not investigate such cases. After all, the court also benefits from it, so they dare to do evil. The source of this evil does not lie in people, It is because of the law, so it is difficult for the court to put an end to this severe punishment. In my opinion, the only way to avoid future troubles is to promote the advantages and eliminate the disadvantages, and to reform the law." Lu Gong immediately stood up and said: "The minister seconded the proposal." Wang Anshi's Said, as he thought.

Because for the imperial court, only by convicting those servants can they confiscate their property and ensure that they do not lose money, so the imperial court will not strictly investigate such cases.

Chen Shengzhi and many other officials also stood up to support Wang Anshi. This eucalyptus has indeed aroused the anger of many people, and they all feel that it is time to change all this.

If this goes on, it's okay. Zhao Xu glanced at Sima Guang suddenly. Sima Guang had no choice but to stand up and express his support for the reform.

In fact, these words are not against his will. He did not expressly support Wang Anshi's reform. Many ministers stood up again and expressed their support for the reform of the servant law.

Zhao Xu swept his eyes away: "In my opinion, even if the real culprit is severely punished, it will be difficult to quell public grievances, so... Lu Zhifu." Lu Gong immediately stood up,

"The minister is here." Zhao Xu said: "After the trial of this case, the Kaifeng government must announce to the world, saying that the imperial court will reform the labor law within this year." This little emperor also has some means, this Obviously to prevent them from reneging on their debts, let's announce it first.

Lu Gong said: "I obey your orders." The officials shouted: "Your Majesty is wise!" Among them were Tang Jie, Lu Hui and other conservative backbones.

In fact, what they are fighting for is not whether to reform, but how to reform. After all, the emperor hadn't finished the matter yet, announcing the launch of Wang Anshi's reform on the spot, there is still room for maneuver.

But everyone knows in their hearts that the emperor must use Wang Anshi's reform. If you want to fight, you have to fight again at that time.

......As for this case, the trial was actually about the same. The mastermind and the accomplices all committed suicide in fear of crime. Now it is up to Zhang Fei to accept the result.

After all, what Zhang Fei fought was not a criminal case, but the law of the ancestors. So Lu Gongzhu called Zhang Fei to Kaifeng mansion again and showed him the trial results.

After Zhang Fei finished reading it, he asked, "Are they really the masterminds?" Mr. Lu sighed, and said, "To tell you the truth, this official is not sure, maybe it is, maybe it is not. The official had suspected it too, but the clues were indeed on the five of them." He didn't dare to hide it from Zhang Fei, who knows how many clues this kid has.

Zhang Fei hesitated. Lu Gong did not make a sound. He knew that Zhang Fei would most likely agree. Because it is impossible for the court to recognize what he said

"The law of the ancestors", if the lawsuit continues, although it will not lose, it is impossible to win. The Kaifeng government has also done its best, and it will be very difficult to continue the investigation.

Seeing that Mr. Lu remained silent when he died, Zhang Fei knew that he didn't have any conditions to negotiate, so he nodded and agreed.
