Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 481: Waiting for the flowers to bloom sometime

In a restaurant next to the street, two middle-aged men were watching Zhang Fei's carriage slowly passing by.

The older one is Wei Yingfang, the general judge of Hezhong Prefecture, and the other one is Cao Yi, the transfer judge of Hezhong Prefecture.

"Aren't we making a fuss out of a molehill, and what kind of waves can we cause with just these two young boys?"

Wei Yingfang looked puzzled.

Their Hezhong Mansion was facing a formidable enemy, and it turned out to be just such a bunch of brats.

It made him a little embarrassed.

But Cao Yi was very cautious and said: "Wei Tongju must not be careless. My cousin has sent letters several times, telling us to be careful about Zhang San. This person looks young, but his methods are often unexpected, especially his The attainments in the law are hard to guard against, and he told me that if I am not absolutely sure, I would rather use some dangerous tricks than go to court with this person, and I will definitely lose."

His cousin is that Cao Han, who is rather cunning and has always been behind the scenes. He was not implicated in the case of Gu Ji, but Wang Anshi also found an excuse to transfer him to the Transit Department of Shu.

"Really?"

Wei Yingfang didn't believe it.

"It's true."

Cao Yidao: "Many ministers of the imperial court have written letters to the officials of our Hezhong Mansion, asking them to be careful about this three, which shows that this person should not be fooled by appearances. I just don't know what Cai Zhifu's plan is?"

Wei Yingfang said: "Prefect Cai, you can rest assured, he has already hinted that he will not pay attention to these matters."

.......

After seeing off Zhang Fei and Su Zhe, Cai Yanqing sat on a chair, sipping tea and thinking.

"Defend the legitimate rights and interests of individuals?"

Cai Yanqing suddenly turned his head to Zhuo Qun, who was at the side, and asked, "How does Master Zhuo think about this legal system?"

At the banquet just now, Zhuo Qun, the chief bookkeeper, was also on the sidelines.

Zhuo Qun pondered for a while, "This method of legal system does sound reasonable, but the officials don't think it is feasible."

There was a bit of disdain on his face, as if to say, these words were like what children like them said, and adults who have experienced the baptism of time should not say these words.

Cai Yanqing nodded slightly: "I have the same opinion."

In fact, they are all of the traditional Confucian-Legalist thinking, which is strict law and benevolent government, using benevolent government to reconcile strict law and avoid Qin's fate.

This is also the experience summed up by Confucianism. It is because of unbelief that they are forced to integrate Confucianism and Legalism.

Their feeling about the rule of law is that it is unrealistic.

Zhuo Qun said: "How does the magistrate plan to deal with it?"

Cai Yanqing shook his head and said: "They haven't changed my opinion, we should try our best not to get involved in this matter, if they fail, we can still help to stabilize the Hezhong Mansion, and won't cause the Hezhong Mansion to fall into chaos again in."

Zhuo Qun nodded and said: "The lower officials also think this is the best way to deal with it. Let me ask who can safely hand over the people of a whole family to a few brats."

Just at this time, a security officer entered the hall, "I will report to the magistrate that there have been several robberies in the city today."

Cai Yanqing frowned and said, "Did you catch the murderer?"

The Yasi glanced at Cai Yanqing with a guilty conscience, then shook his head.

Cai Yanqing pondered for a while, "Go down first."

"Yes."

After the secretary left, Cai Yanqing said to Zhuo Qun again: "Take a chance to talk to them, don't make too much noise, but don't speak too harshly, everyone has emotions, this is human common sense."

Zhuo Qun nodded and said, "I understand."

Although Sima Guang asked someone to write a letter to Cai Yanqing, Cai Yanqing still believed that he should not get too close to Zhang Fei.

The reason is very simple, what if Zhang Fei fails?

Let the Hezhong Mansion fall into chaos again?

Cai Yanqing managed to achieve the stability of the Hezhong Mansion.

Cai Yanqing has already made up his mind to stand aside and wait and see. If Zhang Fei and the others fail, they will immediately take over the judiciary.

As for his subordinates, he is now adopting a strategy of appeasement instead of ordering them to obey the rule of law.

Because Cai Yanqing knew it was useless, because he came here to adopt a policy of tolerance, not to suppress it with force.

......

When Zhang Fei returned to the official office, it was already evening, just after entering the gate, he saw Fu Shichun sitting alone in the pavilion by the lake, with a pot of tea and some exquisite pastries on the table.

In fact, this guy likes living here very much, but there is no way, he is from the police station.

Zhang Fei came to the pavilion and asked, "Why did you come back? Where are Ya Nei and Xiao Ma?"

He also looked around.

Fu Shichun said: "I'm so drunk that I was brought back just now."

Zhang Fei was not surprised by this. Drinking with these generals, especially juniors, if they come out drunk, it would be a kind of disrespect for me. Of course, Cao Dongdong and Ma Xiaoyi are also suffocated and want to have a drink. He also let go of drinking today, so he didn't intend to go out awake, only hoping to drink Qin Zhongshou down.

Zhang Fei sat down and asked, "How is it?"

Fu Shichun said: "As we expected, Qin Zhongshou invited the Yamen this time to inquire about the lawsuit about General Zhong. But it may not be a good idea for you to let the Yamen talk big."

Zhang Fei was not worried, and asked with a smile, "What did he say?"

Fu Shichun said: "When we first met, I was restrained, but after drinking a few glasses of wine, that guy became more and more outrageous, saying that we came here to complain for the soldiers and prevent them from doing it again. Being oppressed by anyone makes me nauseous."

Zhang Fei chuckled and asked again: "Then do they believe it?"

"Do you think they can believe it?"

Fu Shichun rolled his eyes, and said again: "However, based on the relationship between the Cao family and the Qin family, the attitude of the yamen made them at least temporarily relieved."

Zhang Fei nodded and said, "That can be exchanged for their support."

Fu Shichun hesitated for a moment and said: "They are all experienced in many battles. They have never seen any scenes. It is impossible to support him with all their strength just because of a few words from the yamen. Unless we can prove that the public security law is only beneficial to them, not Otherwise, they must take one step at a time, but they should not make things difficult for the police for the time being."

Although the battle between civil and military is the main theme here, the interests of the Hezhong Mansion are intricate. In many respects, the interests of civil and military are the same.

Besides, human nature is selfish. Everyone hopes that the public security law will be beneficial to him and not harmful to him.

This is not a sale, this is an "I want it all" game.

Hitting a stick to a date also requires clever means, otherwise, no one will eat it.

Zhang Fei nodded and said, "That's right! No one will believe you if you don't practice it, and you have to prove it with facts. The key point is that we don't have much time left, so your police station has to recruit people."

Fu Shichun smiled and said: "It seems that you already know about the frequent occurrence of thieves in the city."

Zhang Fei smiled and said, "It's expected."

Fu Shichun said: "I think this is very difficult now."

"How?"

"We are in the open, and they are in the dark. They can create various incidents to make things difficult for us, but we can only respond passively. If we do well, that is what we should do. If we do not do well, we will be attacked by them immediately." , thankless!"

Fu Shichun's tone showed a hint of frustration.

If they rely on their own means, then he thinks there is still some hope, but the problem is that they are here to build the judiciary, you can only use these three axes, and you can't go beyond this range, and your three axes are destined to die. There will be various loopholes.

At the same time, the other party can do everything they can.

This is hard to guard against!

"As expected."

Zhang Fei said with a smile.

Before he came here, he had made sufficient preparations. Even the assassination was within his expectation. Although he was not certain of winning, this was just the beginning, and he couldn't be frightened by it.

He wasn't even thinking about it right now, after talking with Fu Shichun for a while, he hurried back to the backyard.

The first thing is to tell Li Si to boil water for him to take a bath.

Then went to Xu Zhiqian and told Xu Zhiqian everything about today's banquet.

"In this case, Prefect Cai will not help us."

"Should be."

Zhang Fei nodded and said: "But for us, as long as Cai Zhifu doesn't stop us, we are already lucky. Even Mr. Su Xiao is full of praise for Cai Zhifu. It can be seen that Bachelor Sima is not exaggerating. The magistrate is indeed very capable, not as mediocre as he is today."

Xu Zhiqian asked again: "Then how do you plan to deal with it?"

Zhang Fei said: "We have to put this public prosecutor's law into operation as soon as possible. Mr. Su Xiao has already found a key witness. If we can find evidence, we will immediately re-examine the Guixiang case."

Xu Zhiqian hurriedly said: "Have you thought about how to judge?"

Zhang Fei said with a smile: "This law is nothing more than human feelings."

Xu Zhiqian said: "But you also said before that if the sentence is light, it may cause very bad effects."

Zhang Fei smiled and said: "So we have to speak through other people's mouths."

Xu Zhiqian asked, "Mr. Su?"

At this moment, Li Si suddenly came to the door, "Brother, the water is ready."

"Got it!"

Zhang Fei said to Xu Zhiqian again: "Let's see when the time comes."

Xu Zhiqian looked at his eyes, smiled slyly and said: "That's right, you may not want to talk about it today."

Hey Zhang Fei said: "I really can't hide anything from you."

Xu Zhiqian snorted softly: "If you are kicked out by Sister Gao tonight, I won't hold the door for you."

Zhang Fei immediately stood at attention: "I promise to complete the task."

Xu Zhiqian spat: "Not serious. Hurry up."

"Yes."

Looking at Zhang Fei's impatient back, Xu Zhiqian pursed her lips and smiled, then picked up "Song Xingtong" and continued to read.

She regarded Gao Wenyin as Zhang Fei's wife a long time ago. On the contrary, she married Zhang Fei later and felt full of guilt towards Gao Wenyin.

So she was actually more eager to promote the good things between Zhang Fei and Gao Wenyin, so she felt better in her heart.

Of course, it's also because she and Gao Wenyin are sisters, and their personalities can complement each other. After all, she has such a strong personality, if there is another strong one, she will definitely quarrel every day.

Over there, Zhang Fei rushed to the bathroom, took a bath of petals, asked Qingmei to help him take care of it, put on a jade-white robe, and everything was as handsome as possible do it.

After this operation, it is already the second watch.

Dongdongdong!

Zhang Fei knocked on Gao Wenyin's door with excitement.

There was no answer from inside the house.

Not there? No way! Zhang Fei's heart trembled, he knocked lightly on the door a few more times, and shouted: "Ma'am, are you in the room?"

After a while, just as Zhang Fei was about to call Xiaotao over to ask, the door finally opened.

A faint candlelight shot from the room.

Zhang Fei turned his eyes slightly, and suddenly saw a figure coming out, he couldn't help but stare blankly, but saw a charming young woman standing in the room, it wasn't Gao Wenyin who it was.

But today she obviously dressed up specially, her thick black hair is combed into a cloud bun, the gold hairpin is inserted obliquely, her face is like a silver plate, her eyes are like water apricot, her lips are not pimple but red, her eyebrows are not drawn Cui, wearing a purple silk nightgown, with a touch of white on her chest, which is intriguing. Against the candlelight, her snow-white skin and plump yet graceful figure are looming.

Dignified and noble, there is endless style.

Usually, Gao Wenyin doesn't often dress up, she just regards herself as a village woman, but with a little dressing up, she is really graceful and graceful like a dragon.

"Has Saburo seen enough?"

Gao Wenyin lowered her head and said softly.

Zhang Fei woke up like a dream, hurriedly stepped over the threshold first, and closed the door casually, only he can see the spring.

Gao Wenyin just looked at him shyly and remained silent.

Zhang Fei sized her up again, and asked softly, "Is Madam dressing up this way for me?"

Gao Wenyin lowered her eyes, and hummed lightly: "You...you said you like to see me in this dress."

When moving to a new house, Zhang Fei once mentioned to her that he wanted to make a few such nightdresses for Gao Wenyin, they were so sexy, but then he himself forgot about them. I don't know if I did it or not, but I never thought that Gao Wenyin would still remember it.

Zhang Fei couldn't help but took her slender hand, and gently pulled it towards him, "Madam, thank you."

When Gao Wenyin heard the words, her body trembled slightly, and she raised her head, her watery almond eyes glistened with tears, and she raised her hand on her own initiative, caressing Zhang Fei's face, and said with a choked voice: " It is I who want to thank Saburo, thank you Saburo for saving me in the sea of ​​suffering, and for the respect and love for me these days."

This person is not grass, how can he be ruthless, and Zhang Fei's "Madam" strategy is also very effective, it really made Gao Wenyin unknowingly regard herself as Zhang Fei's woman.

It's just that there is always a hurdle in her heart that she can't get over.

However, Zhang Fei never forced her to do anything, on the contrary, he respected her very much. Later, when he married Xu Zhiqian, Zhang Fei not only did not neglect her, but respected her even more, for fear that she would be unhappy because of it.

She also felt Zhang Fei's feelings for her, but she still couldn't let go of the past, and felt very distressed about it, so she could only do everything to take care of Zhang Fei.

But the more so, the more Zhang Fei became the only one in her life.

It was not until Zhang Fei was assassinated a few days ago that she had nightmares every day for several days. As long as she closed her eyes, she would feel the fear of losing Zhang Fei. Then she realized that she had already put it down. Only Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei is very aware of his feelings for Gao Wenyin, and it is really impossible to leave her. It is precisely because of this that he is willing to wait. If he goes on, he won't complain at all.

Gently wiped away the teardrops from the corners of her eyes, Zhang Fei didn't know what to say, but just called out: "Ma'am."

Gao Wenyin smiled shyly and said, "Husband."

The sound of "husband" is not awkward, but a deep love.

Seeing her vermilion lips parted slightly, her eyes blurred, **** and charming, Zhang Fei couldn't help lowering his head slowly, Gao Wenyin also closed his eyes lightly, and the snow-white lotus root arms gradually wrapped around Zhang Fei's neck.
