Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 22: Bad life

This time it really wasn't Xu Zhiqian who underestimated Zhang Fei, but Xu Zun who overestimated Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei was tossing and turning when he returned to the house!

The pain that a penny can't beat a hero arises spontaneously.

This thing is not based on ability, but on relationship.

Undoubtedly, this is definitely Zhang Fei's biggest weakness.

He has no relatives or reason here, and the only relationship is Xu Zun. He stayed here because of this relationship, otherwise, he would be killed in minutes.

Without Xu Zun's support, he would not have succeeded in appealing for Fang Yun.

Rolling on the bed for a while, he kept moaning and sighing: "It seems that the woman has not forgotten what happened that day, I still have to move out early, it's really uncomfortable to live under the fence."

As he talked, he got tangled up again, "If I want to move out, I have to have a financial foundation, but if I can't get official documents, then I can't help people with lawsuits, so I have no livelihood, Bianjing The house price is so expensive, how do you move out? Wow, is this the legendary closed loop of death. Wait, you can’t go to court without official documents?”

Thinking of this, he suddenly sat up, thought for a long time, and suddenly raised his hands and rubbed his cheeks anxiously, "Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei, don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive, otherwise you will lose your life Already."

Speaking of which, he put down his hands again, and said in a very tangled way: "But if you don't have money, why do you have to die? Why don't you ask your benefactor again. No, it's too embarrassing, and you will be punished." That woman laughed at me, I can't bear it. There is a saying that it is better to ask for others than to ask for yourself. Give it a try. I still don't believe that anyone dares to touch my tile. Anyway, in their eyes, I am just a dead man. One."

The next day.

Kaifeng Prefecture.

"Prefect Lu, all the people of Erbi in our Kaifeng Prefecture are recorded here."

Huang Gui, the chief bookkeeper of the Kaifeng Mansion, handed a book to Lu Gong for writing.

"Yeah."

Grand Lu took the book and opened it to look it up.

Huang Gui said in a low voice: "The magistrate is specifically looking at the people of Erbi today, but because of the lawsuit a few days ago?"

Lu Gong nodded and said: "Since ancient times, all dynasties have prohibited litigation, but our court has not prohibited it. First, our dynasty has not suppressed mergers, and there are many lawsuits; Pay attention to civil cases; thirdly, some honest tea eaters can still help the government to share their worries.

But now it seems that the actions of the predecessors are not completely unreasonable! This style of contention should still be controlled. From now on, in Kaifeng Mansion, anyone who comes to apply for official documents must get my approval. "

He also knew that Sima Guang did not lose in law, but in politics. He also strongly disapproved of excessive defense, and he felt that it was necessary to take precautions before it happened.

"Yes, I remember it."

While they were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of drumming from the gate.

Gong Lu's expression tightened, and he asked, "Who plays the drums?"

As in the TV drama, there is indeed a drum in front of the Kaifeng mansion, but this drum cannot be beaten lightly, unless it is a great grievance, and it often does not ring once for several months.

As soon as the drum sounded, the entire Kaifeng Mansion started to move.

This Lu Gong is the same as Xu Zun, but he is also an upright and honest official.

This subordinate naturally did not dare to neglect.

"Report to the magistrate, just now someone surrendered with drums outside."

"Drumming surrender?"

Lu Gongzhu was taken aback immediately, the drum had never sounded because of surrender, and asked: "What crime did he commit?"

"The crime of deceiving the king!"

When the charge was read out, the mouth of the informant was trembling.

This kind of thing has never happened before, so he doesn't know whether he should accept it or not.

"What?"

Lu Gong also stood up in fright and said, "The crime of deceiving the emperor?"

Huang Gui felt something was wrong and said, "Could this be the work of a lunatic?"

"That person doesn't look like a lunatic." The informant said.

"But it's impossible for ordinary people to commit such a serious crime." Huang Gui questioned.

Could it be an official from the DPRK and China? Mr. Lu hurriedly asked, "Did you ask his name?"

Namuk replied: "I asked, and he said his name is Zhang Fei."

"It's him?"

Lu Gong was shocked again, but he still didn't quite believe it, so he ordered people to come to the court as soon as possible.

"Xiaomin Zhang Fei met Lu Zhifu."

When Lu Gong saw it, it was indeed Zhang Fei, but he became more cautious. This kid was scheming and asked: "I heard that you surrendered yourself?"

"Yes."

"What crime have you committed?"

"Young people committed the crime of deceiving the emperor." Zhang Fei said expressionlessly.

Is this kid crazy? Lu Gong wrote that everyone is stupid, this is unreasonable, he asked patiently: "How did you commit the crime of deceiving the emperor?"

I have to say that this is a crime that ordinary people really cannot commit.

Zhang Fei said: "In fact, Xiaomin has always been an undocumented person."

Lu Gongzhu did not react for a while, and said: "What is an undocumented Erbi?"

Zhang Fei said: "It's just that Xiaomin doesn't have official documents from the government."

Lu Gong became more confused when he heard it, and asked again: "What does this have to do with the crime of deceiving the emperor?"

Zhang Fei said: "According to the government's regulations, if there is no official document from the government, the people of Erbi cannot go to court to plead for others. But a few days ago, Xiaomin had a fight in the trial court as a citizen of Erbi I heard that this lawsuit was ordered by the current emperor, but according to the legal system of the court, Xiaomin is not qualified to fight this lawsuit, so Xiaomin committed the crime of deceiving the emperor."

It is really well-founded.

The purpose of this regulation is only to restrain the people of Erbi and avoid litigation. That official document is like a lawyer's license. Without a license, there is no privilege to defend in court.

But this regulation varies from place to place. Bianjing is relatively stricter, and you must have official documents before you can go to court. This is Kyoto. If it is not strictly controlled, the drums of Kaifeng Mansion cannot be changed every month.

However, in terms of locality, as long as the masters think it is necessary, those servants who do not have official documents can also go to court to defend. This is because the servants are the earliest litigators. There is an area of ​​ambiguity, and the official likes ambiguity the most. Only when it is ambiguous can the official's two mouths be useful.

In addition, Zhang Feiben was one of the witnesses in this case, this is another special case, Xu Zun is such a law-abiding person, and he doesn't think this violates the regulations.

But having said that, there is indeed such a clear rule.

And this second lawsuit is not in Dengzhou, but in Bianjing.

Not to mention that the crime of deceiving the emperor is a pocket crime, and everything can be put in it. The key point is that this lawsuit was directly ordered by Song Shenzong. Can.

Lu Gong didn't know how to refute for a while, so he asked: "Do you know what the consequences of this crime are?"

Zhang Fei said: "I don't know the specifics, but the lightest thing should be beheading."

Mr. Lu was almost amused by this kid, and said: "Since you know, why did you turn yourself in? As far as I know, no one has investigated this matter."

Zhang Fei closed his eyes and sighed, and said: "Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve, and the small people complained for Fang Yun in order to repay his life-saving grace, but the loyalty of the small people to His Majesty is also a lesson for the sun and the moon. Therefore, Xiaomin came here to surrender, in order to get the best of both worlds."

After listening to Mr. Lu, he didn't know whether to praise him for his loyalty or call him stupid. Although he didn't agree with what Zhang Fei said in the court that day, he thought it was unnecessary. He didn't think that Zhang Fei really committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, but the matter has come to this point, and he can't treat it as if it didn't happen. This crime is very sensitive, and it is a pocket crime. If he ignores it, he may even be charged with it, so he said : "If you don't turn yourself in, no one will investigate this matter. Now you turn yourself in. The crime is so serious that I dare not hide it."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Fei bowed his head and said, "I hope the magistrate will complete it."

Grand Lu sighed, waved his hand and said, "Press it down."

There is no need to investigate this, because he is also involved in the case, he is too clear, in fact, no one really cares about it.

This has already been sent to the trial court. No one from Erbi has ever done this. Who cares whether Zhang Fei has official documents.

But Zhang Fei must say that, it is indeed a crime of deceiving the emperor!

The key point is who dares to hide this crime!

But then again, since it is a crime of deceiving the emperor, the emperor must be notified, because the emperor is the victim and the person involved!

Lu Gong reported it immediately.

We must know that although the case of Ayun is an ordinary criminal case, it has great political significance, and Zhang Fei is a key figure in it, so Lu Gong did not dare to be careless.
