Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 493: I am Judiciary Murong Fu.

This is really a wave of ups and downs, and another wave!

The murder of the mother in Gui Township has not yet cooled down, and the public prosecutor who has just arrived in Hezhong Prefecture has once again become the focus of local people's attention.

And this time the attention is much higher than before, because this is not only a social issue, but also an issue involving the interests of all, it is also a very sensitive political issue.

Especially in Hezhong Mansion, as long as it's about salt, it's no small matter.

However, due to the murder of the mother, the public prosecutor's law has won the favor of many people. This public opinion has not yet become agitated, because many people believe that the imperial court will give a fair judgment.

But the more this is the case, the greater the pressure on the imperial court.

Because selling private salt is illegal, and the laws of this country are clearly stipulated.

The common people have this mentality, which can be said to be invisibly interfering in the judiciary.

Imperial Court.

Su Zhe handed over a statement of complaint to Zhang Fei, but his expression looked very tired.

Zhang Fei took the complaint and was about to ask one or two questions, when Su Che said again: "There is more than one way to solve the problem."

"Huh?"

Zhang Fei looked at Su Zhe curiously, "What does Mr. Su Xiao mean by that?"

Su Zhe frowned and said: "Although the public prosecutor's law is good, and the law of the legal system is also attractive, but it may not appear at the right time, but it will make many problems more acute."

Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect such a small incident to make Mr. Su feel so depressed."

Su Zhe said: "It's just such a common incident that makes people feel depressed. To tell you the truth, if I were not the chief prosecutor, I would never sue this Yanhu, because he is not guilty. But he is facing the death penalty. It is a pity that I am the chief prosecutor, and I must act according to the law, which makes me feel very helpless."

Speaking of this, he paused for a while, and then continued: "However, things like this are common, everywhere, and strange. Those people can find all kinds of problems to make things difficult for us. In my case It seems that before the political law is clear, the judiciary will not be able to make a difference."

Although he is the chief prosecutor, he still has Confucianism in his bones. He believes that the fault lies in the policy of the imperial court, not in Yanhu. Like Yanqing, according to different situations, different coping methods are given.

But as the Attorney General, there is no room for manipulation.

It is expressly stipulated that the stolen goods are obtained together. If there is no prosecution, the procuratorate might as well close its doors.

You should know that this kind of thing, the other party can do it easily, it is nothing, but it makes the whole public security and law enforcement feel like a pinch, the cost of the struggle between the two sides is not directly proportional, there is no chance of winning at all.

This made Su Zhe question the entire public security law. Like Xu Zhiqian, he believed that if the politics and laws were not clear, law enforcement would be helping the evildoers.

The salt government exploited the people, and the law drove them to death.

Under such a harsh salt policy, Baixin can only sell private salt for a living, but the law imposes severe punishments, ten catties is a death penalty.

This is unreasonable.

But if you want to change it, you have to start with the reform of the salt government.

If the salt policy is not changed, this law will become an evil law, and there will be no joy in enforcing the evil law.

"I see."

Zhang Fei nodded and said again: "There is indeed more than one way to solve the problem. Maybe everyone has a big knife in their hands, but someone has to get an embroidery needle."

Su Zhe thinks about it too, and the judiciary is also indispensable. He glanced at him and said, "Then how do you plan to deal with it?"

"I still have to evaluate."

Zhang Fei raised the indictment in his hand, "This indictment has not been in my hands for more than a stick of incense."

Su Zhe suddenly remembered something, "Don't you have the right to judge? Can you change the salt law, ten catties of illegal salt, you have to be sentenced to death, this is too serious and difficult to implement."

Use the most severe law to judge the most ordinary things.

This is clearly not true.

In fact, the Song Dynasty has improved in this regard. It used to be five catties, but now it has been raised to ten catties.

But ten catties is only four hundred and fifty Wen, which is far from enough for those salt households after deducting the cost.

Zhang Fei asked: "I don't know what punishment Mr. Su Xiao thinks should be given?"

Su Zhe thought for a while, and couldn't help but smiled wryly: "With the current situation in Yanhu, a little disturbance may ruin their family."

Just say that Huang Tong, in the police station, will be locked up for a month or two without any punishment, and he may go bankrupt. Because he had to pay 120,000 catties of salt to the court.

Zhang Fei smiled and said, "I'll take a look first."

Su Zhe nodded, and said again: "But there is nothing worth reading about this complaint."

"That's because your procuratorate didn't work hard enough." Zhang Fei half-jokingly said.

Su Zhe nodded with a wry smile, "I hope so."

After sending Su Zhe away, Zhang Fei immediately summoned their think tanks, namely Cai Jing, Cai Bian, Shangguan Jun, and Ye Zuqia, the four little King Kongs, and Xu Zhiqian, the dog-headed military advisor.

"This is clearly a conspiracy."

Cai Jingdao: "From the students' point of view, as long as there is a court session, no matter what, it's a thankless task. It just so happened that the imperial court sent Yuan University scholars to take charge of the salt administration. Why don't we transfer this matter over there."

Shangguan Jun nodded and said: "This Yanhu is really pitiful. It is really inappropriate to sentence him to death, but the reason is the corruption of the Yan government and the harsh salt law. The person who untied the bell must tie it!"

"If everything is pushed by other government agencies, then what do we have to do with the Public Security Bureau."

Ye Zuqia snorted and said: "This is illegal. It should be decided by our imperial court. Corruption in the salt administration is also an illegal act. Why don't we follow the vine to expand this matter and take the opportunity to rectify the salt administration? Let's see if they dare Use this kind of thing to make things difficult for us."

Cai Bian nodded and said: "I agree with what Brother Ye said, if every salt household can get forty-five guan coins, and at the same time the imperial court buys the remaining salt in their hands at a reasonable price, they will not go Selling private salt."

"No way."

Cai Jing hurriedly said: "We are new here, and our strength is weak, and those salt officials and salt officials are powerful. If we continue to investigate, there may be no end, and we may even go to the capital. Come down, the imperial court can only judge us guilty. Since ancient times, this kind of thing abounds."

Cai Bian hummed: "If we look forward to everything, then why are we here?"

Cai Jing immediately retorted: "Everything has to be done slowly, and if you are eager for success, you will often be defeated."

Ye Zuqia said: "But if you make compromises, you will only make progress."

Shangguan Jun said: "It's better to keep a low profile and accumulate a lot of money than to overestimate one's strength."

......

The four little king kong immediately divided into two factions, quarreling endlessly.

Xu Zhiqian struggled, feeling that what they said made sense, a kind of pain that could not have both the fish and the bear's paw arose spontaneously, she couldn't help but look at Zhang Fei, only to see that Zhang Fei was still doing the signature move in class, back Leaning on the table, arms crossed, silent.

After a long time, the four little Vajras were so thirsty that they couldn't help looking at Zhang Fei at the same time.

"Teacher, how do you plan to deal with it?" Shangguan Jun asked.

Zhang Fei was stunned, and looked up at them. After a while, he said: "You are talking outside the law. We are judicial officers, and what we are holding is "Song Xingtong", not "Sun Tzu's Art of War", this law has not yet been clarified, you are talking about what is there and what is not, are you thinking too far."

Speaking of which, he sideways picked up the complaint on the table and raised it, "I ask you, is there any problem with this complaint?"

The four shook their heads at the same time.

"Is there any problem?" Zhang Fei asked again.

The four looked at Zhang Fei anxiously.

Zhang Fei sighed, "What are you usually doing?"

The four of them pouted in aggrieved manner.

Shangguan Jun asked: "Teacher, do you think there is something wrong with this complaint?"

Zhang Fei said: "Of course there is a problem. I have never seen such a crude complaint."

"Huh?"

Several people looked at Zhang Fei in surprise at the same time.

Zhang Fei said: "This complaint does not clearly state that the salt sold by Huang Tong is private salt."

"???"

A few people were confused.

Xu Zhiqian said: "Huang Tong himself admitted it."

Zhang Fei said: "What's the use of Huang Tong's confession? It depends on the evidence."

"This...this is private salt."

Cai Biandao: "The national law stipulates that salt from Yanhu can only be bought for the imperial court, and cannot be sold privately to others."

"But what if the court refuses to accept it?"

"Is this unlikely?"

"What I said is if. The government decree stipulates that the salt in the hands of the salt households must be sold to the imperial court, and the imperial court must purchase the salt. Conversely, if the imperial court does not purchase the salt, will the salt not be applicable? It must be sold to the imperial court, it is impossible to say a word, and it is divided into two parts. So is this considered private salt?"

"...?"

The four little King Kongs sound like big heads, so can they still be counted like this?

Zhang Fei asked again: "Is this stated in the complaint?"

"Uh...no."

"Also! If the government allows Huang Tong to sell these salts, you have to remember that this is a government order, not a law. The law is illegal to sell private salt, but what is private salt? According to the current regulations, What the government allows is official salt, what is not allowed is private salt.”

"Huh?"

"What are you? Are you going to investigate?"

"Yes."

"In addition, has the imperial court stipulated how much to buy this prolific salt from salt households?"

"It seems that there is no specific explanation, but what does this have to do with this case?"

"Why doesn't it matter? The imperial court stipulates that the salt produced by salt households must be sold to the imperial court, and the imperial court must also purchase the salt. This is not an obligation to hand in, so it must follow the principle of buying and selling, and it should be paid Yes, you have to pay as much as you want.

However, if the imperial court is unwilling to pay a penny, it is equivalent to the imperial court voluntarily giving up the salt, then back to the previous question, when the salt that the imperial court voluntarily gave up, how to determine whether it is private salt or official salt. "

"Wouldn't it be possible to magnify the case if you check it like this."

Cai Jing said doubtfully.

"No, I just want to determine whether these salts are official salts or private salts."

Speaking, Zhang Fei threw the indictment to Cai Jing, saying: "Return it to the procuratorate, and tell them that this is the roughest indictment our imperial court has ever seen. By the way, I will also send them some pens, ink, paper and inkstone , this account will be recorded in my personal name, tell them, don't be too stingy with pen, ink and paper."

"Yes..Yes."

Cai Jing nodded slightly.

Shouldn't they be unanimous now?

Why are you still fighting.

After they left, Xu Zhiqian asked, "What do you want to do?"

Zhang Fei said with a smile: "I will repay him with the same way, so that they will have trouble sleeping and eating."
