Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 133: Private time
One sentence is the truth!
As the party involved, Su Shi couldn't help being a little confused.
Is this okay?
To be honest, this sentence is suspected of committing the following crimes and contempt of the court!
Xu Zhiqian who was standing beside Zhang Fei was also dumbfounded. What Zhang Fei said just now really frightened her into a fool. It took a while for her to realize it, and said in a low voice: "You are really amazing !”
Zhang Fei winked at her triumphantly.
"This brat!"
Sima Guang couldn't help laughing and scolding, "He's trying to force a literati to make the magistrate!"
Wang Anshi laughed and said, "I said it has nothing to do with me."
Gong Lu cast a glance at the two culprits, and saw that they were still there, seeming to be gloating about their misfortune, and he was really angry.
He was irritable when he saw Zhang Fei, and he really didn't want to give it to him.
But Zhang Fei's complaint made him have to give it up.
Because this feudal society is very particular about class status.
Today's hearings are all great writers and young scholars, almost without exception, all of them are scholars.
If you don't accept Zhang Fei's complaint, will these scholar-bureaucrats and literati feel happy?
Although many of them don't like Zhang Fei, this time Zhang Fei is helping them with the lawsuit!
It is related to the vital interests of literati.
I gave it last time, but I won’t give it this time, if it spreads out, where will the literati put their face.
Is the status of our literati not as good as that of the front office?
This must be given!
The long tables and benches of the yamen are carried up.
Bang.
He directly confronted Zhang Fei and Xu Zhiqian.
You don't need your eyes to see the difference in attitude, you can even feel it through the pores.
Gong Lu's authorship is as if he didn't see it.
Zhang Fei didn't care at all, and said with a smile: "Several poor brothers, can you put aside a little bit, how can you be a small citizen, how dare you sit opposite the magistrate."
The poor brothers glanced at Mr. Lu's writing.
Lu Gongzhu also felt that he was also a magistrate and a neutral character. If he sat across the table with one party, he would create a feeling of fighting in a ring.
This is different from the last time, when Zhang Fei sued the imperial court last time, sitting opposite the presiding judge, which also fits the atmosphere.
Gong Lu nodded slightly, then waved lightly.
Brother Chai understood, and glared at Zhang Fei angrily: "Move it yourself."
Just step aside.
Wow...don't be so narrow-minded! Zhang Fei quickly cast a contemptuous glance at Lu Gong, then showed his masculinity, refused Xu Zhiqian's request for help, and moved the long table and bench to the side by himself.
Because there are too many people hearing the trial, the hall will definitely not be able to fit in. In addition, the spring is sunny and the court is located in the front yard, so the space is still large enough.
After sitting down with Xu Zhiqian, Xu Zhiqian methodically placed the papers on the table.
"Show me a copy of your pleadings."
Zhang Fei said in a low voice.
Xu Zhiqian immediately handed Zhang Fei a copy of the pleading paper she had written.
Actually, Zhang Fei didn't think much of the pleadings. He just dictated his thoughts, but Xu Zhiqian decided how to write them down. After all, the two have cooperated so many times, and he still trusts Xu Zhiqian very much. of.
After watching for a while, Zhang Fei raised his head and started his defense, "Just now the magistrate said that Jijuxian's bookstore has admitted to stealing the poems of my client, Mr. Su Shi?"
Lu Gong nodded.
He didn't even intend to let the shopkeeper of Jijuxian go to court to debate, because Zhang Fei's offense this time could be big or small, Lu Gongzhu was also afraid of letting the shopkeeper go to court, and asked Zhang Fei questions again.
After all, Zhang Fei's questioning skills are still fresh in his memory!
If you can't do it, you can't do it.
Zhang Fei said: "But because Mr. Su is an official of the imperial court, his status is quite special, and because of his status, it has already caused a lot of discussion, so Xiaomin still thinks it is necessary to explain why Mr. Su hired Xiaomin Sue Jijuxian to avoid misunderstanding and damage Mr. Su's reputation."
Details!
Su Shi, who saw Zhang Fei going to court for the first time, nodded frequently.
This is necessary.
There are indeed many people who dispute this, thinking that Su Shi is too fussy and lacks the generosity of a literati.
Of course Mr. Lu heard about these remarks, so he nodded and said: "Okay! I will give you some time to explain this matter."
"Thank you magistrate."
Looking at the paper, Zhang Fei said: "Actually... In fact, it has been written very clearly on the paper. Changing the beginning and the end, increasing the sound and meaning, changing the section slightly, making a slight difference, causing mistakes for scholars."
After reading this, he suddenly asked in a low voice: "Miss Xu, what do you mean by these few words?"
Xu Zhiqian almost collapsed, "Didn't you read it?"
After she finishes writing, she will definitely show it to Zhang Fei.
"Uh...I read it, but I didn't say I understood it completely! Tell me quickly!"
Xu Zhiqian is really drunk too, you trust me too much.
"The general meaning is to add changes, take out of context, and confuse readers."
"Good! That's pretty much what I meant."
Zhang Fei raised his head and found that the courtyard was surprisingly quiet inside and outside. He saw the government servants, literati and dandies watching at the gate, all looking at the two of them in bewilderment.
Mr. Lu is used to the two of them chatting in private, but most people here have never seen such a lawsuit.
It looks silly.
What are you doing?
Are you talking about love?
Zhang Fei, who has always liked open court hearings, felt for the first time that he would have to apply for a closed-door hearing next time.
As everyone knows, it is difficult to go back to the closed-door trial now.
After all, the seats for the hearing have already been reserved before anyone else came to complain.
"Ahem!"
Zhang Fei coughed twice tactically, and then asked Lu Gongzhu: "I wonder if the magistrate agrees with these words?"
Lu Gong nodded his head and said: "If it weren't for these few words, this officer would not open the court to try this case."
Zhang Fei nodded and said: "Besides the magistrate, everyone sitting here should also agree that this kind of piracy by Jijuxian will cause much damage to Mr. Su's reputation.
However, everyone should understand that Mr. Su did not use his status and power to stop this behavior, or secretly revenge on Ji Juxian. If Mr. Su did so, it would undoubtedly be bending the law for personal gain.
Because this matter is not within the scope of his authority, even if he has this power, according to the rules of the court, he should choose to avoid suspicion. In order to be fair, Mr. Su chose to hire me to recover his rights in court.
There is no better way to handle this. When an official has a conflict with the people, he chooses to resort to the court. This is the real impartiality, this is the real gentleman, and this is the beauty of my Song Dynasty.
I heard that many people expressed dissatisfaction with this. I think those who say these words are ignorant and extremely shameless, and they are villains. "
The speaker has a heart, and the listener is even more hearty!
Fu Bi and Han Qi stared at him immediately.
Who are you scolding?
Almost at the same time, there was a burst of cheers and cheers outside the door.
"Well said!"
"That's really good, I think so too."
"Mr. Su is really a gentleman."
......
Su Shi's request to sue Jijuxian by someone with a pen and ear has indeed caused a lot of controversy.
Many people think that Su Shi's actions are too ungentlemanly and aggressive.
Pirate some of your poems, why are you doing this?
At the same time, more people supported Su Shi, and the two sides were arguing hard.
Now, according to Zhang Fei's argument, this is exactly the embodiment of demeanor, which is exactly the embodiment of a gentleman.
Su Shi's status is many times higher than that of the bookseller. He can use his power and connections to stop this kind of behavior, but he chooses to go to court and use legal means to solve it. Isn't this selfless? ?
Those who support Su Shi, of course, should applaud Zhang Fei's argument, but also vent their anger for themselves!
Han Qi stroked his beard, "He has some truths."
Fu Bi also looked ashamed and remained silent.
"Silence!"
Lu Gong patted the gavel.
It was immediately quiet outside the courtyard gate.
Zhang Fei looked around suddenly, and said loudly: "I hope that in the future, more officials will come to sue me. Only in this way can justice be done, fairness and justice be upheld. Rather than secretly sowing dissension, Or relying on power, forbidding so-and-so to communicate with so-and-so, and using some indecent means to retaliate and oppress the people, this kind of behavior is called lack of grace, a hypocrite, despicable and shameless, filthy, shameless , insane, extremely vicious, uh..."
As he was talking, he was panting a little, and suddenly said to Xu Zhiqian in a low voice: "Hurry up, hurry up, add a few words for me, I don't have enough brains."
Xu Zhiqian desperately held back her smile, "I'll add something for you, and it's enough."
"You are so useless!"
Zhang Fei was annoyed again: "It's true that when the book is used up, you will hate it less!"
Quiet!
It gradually became quiet inside and outside the courtyard.
All eyes were on Zhang Fei.
Is he really complaining about Mr. Su?
It's not like that!
It seems that he is complaining for himself.
A few days ago, when his law firm opened, there were no guests. Of course, everyone knew what was going on.
This guy is clearly pointing fingers at Sang and scolding Huai!
What about professional ethics?
Su Shi who was standing next to him was really trembling. He regretted that he had offended so many people after this lawsuit was settled!
God knows if Sansi will take his anger out on him.
You must know that he is just a younger brother now, and these big bosses can't afford to mess with him!
If someone asks for money in a lawsuit, you are going to die!
However, the jealous Wang Anshi silently applauded Zhang Fei. If he hadn't taken his status into account, he would have applauded Zhang Fei.
Sima Guang was thoughtful.
If there is a dispute between the officials and the people, they must go to court...!
Good boy, you really take my Kaifeng mansion as your own! Lu Gong was so angry that his teeth were itching, you can go to the boss to make a fuss, what are you calling me, and immediately asked: "There is such a thing, you just say it, I will make the decision for you."
Don't criticize Sang and scold Huai, just say it if you have the ability.
Zhang Fei turned to a page of text: "For example, Wang Si Nong back then......."
"Ahem!"
This move returned the carbine, killing Lu Gong so much that he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, he hurriedly said: "This case is over, you have to seek justice, what else can you say."
He thought that Zhang Fei must be alluding to the third division, you have the ability, but you are referring to your name and surname, insinuating in the court of Kaifeng mansion, it is really unreasonable, who knows that this guy doesn't talk about martial arts, and he mentioned that Wang Sinoong restrained the dispute Litigation.
What happened at the beginning really made everyone in the Kaifeng mansion want to die, Lu Gong never wanted to mention this matter again in his life.
Lu Gong was really afraid that this guy would make use of the topic, so he told him: "Don't talk about it here, just talk about it."
"Xiaomin obeys!"
Zhang Fei flipped through the text again, "Therefore, Mr. Su hired me to fight the lawsuit, but to use fairness to defend justice and his own rights and interests. This is absolutely understandable.
However, Jijuxian seeks personal gain for himself at the cost of hurting Mr. Su's reputation and interests. This behavior is very shameful, and it also violates Mr. Su's interests. Therefore, on behalf of Mr. Su, I hereby seek compensation of 1,000 Guan from Jijuxian. "
There was an uproar inside and outside the courtyard.
