Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 5: The man with the pen

What kind of monster did we release!

Liu Hai has been working in the government for more than twenty years. Usually when criminals are released from prison, they stay as far away from the government as possible. They come every two or three days, but the market market is not so diligent!

"Sue? Sue again?"

Finally unable to bear it, Liu Hai roared viciously at Zhang Fei: "Do you think this government office is run by your family? You come to complain all day long, and I say you are tired of work."

Zhang Fei put down the sleeves to cover his spittle, and said calmly: "Please forgive Liu Muke, in fact, Xiaomin didn't want to disturb Liu Muke, but this is the only place that can avenge the people. Xiaomin Xiaomin is really looking for If you don't go to other places, you can't let Xiaomin go to Beijing to sue the imperial court!"

"You!"

Liu Hai opened his eyes angrily, stared at Zhang Fei and said, "Are you threatening me?"

This leapfrog complaint is the worst thing the government can tolerate!

Let alone sue imperial court.

"No no no!"

Zhang Fei repeatedly shook his head and said: "Xiaomin is just talking, how dare Xiaomin!"

Liu Hai was panting heavily, and after a while, he suddenly grabbed the pleading paper, stared at him, and shouted: "What are you still doing here, is it possible that you still want to open the court today."

"Huh? Oh oh oh!"

Zhang Fei clasped his hands and said, "Xiaomin resigns, Xiaomin resigns."

He saw that it was getting late, and this time he came to file a complaint in a serious manner, and it was impossible to start the trial today, so he left.

Liu Hai is very unwilling to talk to Zhang San, but he also knows the boss's temper. It’s time to sue again.”

When Xu Yuan heard "Zhang San", he became very angry, and said depressedly: "I really shouldn't have released that guy back then."

He is firmly opposed to citing the crime of exemption to help Ayun commute the death penalty. He believes that this will even affect Xu Zun's official career, but Xu Zun insists on going his own way and has already rejected the judgment of Dali Temple on this basis.

The culprit is Zhang San!

Xu Zun glanced at Xu Yuan slightly, but didn't blame him, and asked Liu Hai, "Who is he suing again?"

Zhang Sandao: "This time he was entrusted by the brothers of the Wei family to sue Datian for hurting people."

Xu Zun said in astonishment: "Hurt people? When did Fang Datian hurt people?"

Liu Haidao: "It's still about Ah Yun's murder."

Xu Yuan immediately said: "About this case, we have already found out very clearly that Fang Datian did not order Ah Yun, and the entire Fang family knew nothing about it."

Xu Zun coughed lightly and said, "Present the paper first."

"Yes."

Liu Hai immediately presented the pleading paper.

After Xu Zun looked at it, he asked, "Where are the others?"

Liu Hai said embarrassingly: "Report to Zhizhou, my subordinates saw that it was getting late, so I asked him to go back and wait for news."

Xu Zun wanted to summon Zhang Fei immediately, but it was obvious that his subordinates were not happy with that kid, so he had to be cautious about his subordinates' emotions, so he said: "This kid is really uneasy, let him go for now."

.

However, Xu Zun was just a little scrupulous. After reviewing the pleadings, he decided on the second day that the case would be heard in three days, and Zhang Fei was allowed to appear in court to defend Wei Ada.

Although it was not very common in the Song Dynasty to have someone come to the court to defend the prisoner, it was not very rare. It really wasn't Xu Zun who opened the back door for Zhang Fei.

Because the Song Dynasty did not suppress land mergers, and at the same time did not emphasize agriculture and suppress business, this non-governmental economic exchange was more prosperous than any other dynasty, which directly led to more disputes.

As the common people do not have legal knowledge, they definitely need the help of professionals.

It is clearly recorded in the history books that the specialty of "law studies" was born in the Northern Song Dynasty.

However, such people are not called litigators nowadays, but are called "people with pens", so called because these people like to stick pens on hats, or they are called "pen servants" or "pen servants" Tea eats people".

There is a little difference between "the man with Er's pen" and "the man with the pen". Just help people write pleadings.

"Tea Eater" is different from the first two. Tea eaters only write pleadings, but they must guarantee the authenticity of the pleadings, otherwise, they will bear certain legal responsibilities.

Of course, having said that again, whether to allow Erbi to defend in court is entirely up to the gentlemen, this is not a necessary process.

As for opening the trial, this is also a personal habit of Xu Zun, because he hopes to use this to let the people learn more about the law.

.

Tomorrow is the opening day of the church, the two brothers Wei A who were summoned came to the city today, Zhang Fei took the brothers to his hotel for one night.

He still needs to do some preparatory work.

"Brother Zhang San, I'm fine now, so there's no need to be like this."

Wei Ada glanced at his younger brother who was helping him to bandage, his right hand was almost wrapped into a rice dumpling, he felt that this was too exaggerated, so he said to Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei explained patiently: "If tomorrow you are alive and kicking in the hall, who will sympathize with you? This bandaging is to let people know how much you have suffered. It is only natural for you to ask for compensation. Therefore, it is very necessary.”

Wei Aer felt that what Zhang Fei said was very reasonable, so he said: "Brother, just listen to Brother Zhang San, he will not harm us."

Wea nodded dully, but his face was still full of apprehension.

Zhang Fei said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, you are the only victim in this case, all your demands are taken for granted, no one will blame you, leave everything to me tomorrow."

Weia nodded and said, "I know, I'm not afraid."

Even so, his voice was trembling.

Zhang Fei is also very helpless about this. After all, these small people are unlikely to deal with the government in their entire lives, so they will inevitably feel scared.

Early the next morning, Zhang Fei and the Wei brothers went out of the room early.

At this moment, many people were having breakfast downstairs, but when the three of them came downstairs, the hall was suddenly silent, and everyone looked at Zhang Fei in surprise.

It turned out that Zhang Fei, who went to do as the Romans did, bought a hat specially, and then stuck a short pen in the hat. To be honest, he really likes this look very much, and he really likes it.

Amidst his handsomeness, there is a hint of chicness and uninhibitedness.

It's just so cool.

In Dengzhou, this kind of Erbi people are not very common. The guests of this hotel suddenly found that there is still a Erbi person living here, and they are unavoidably surprised.

Zhang Fei just smiled at everyone, and then left with the Wei brothers. Last night, he asked the owner to bring breakfast to his room early, and they came down after eating.

After he left, there was a burst of discussion in the hostel, and everyone began to discuss the case of Wei Ada.

Whispers have leaked about this case, and everyone is talking about it.

It turned out that the case of Ah Yun had already been widely circulated when it happened, and the citizens knew about it.

It has been proved before that Ayun's murder of Wei Ada was entirely his own, and had nothing to do with the Fang brothers, but now it is reported that Wei Ada sued the Fang brothers for hurting others, which makes everyone feel very sad curious.

Is there another grievance in this case?

.

After a cup of tea, Zhang Fei and the Wei brothers came to the front of the government office. At this time, there were already some citizens standing in front of the door, waiting to watch the excitement.

Suddenly saw a middle-aged man rushing forward, pointing at Wei Ada and burst into anger.

"Wei Ada, you ungrateful bastard, I betrothed my niece to you with good intentions, but you took revenge and falsely accused me, you will die a bad death."

This person is the defendant, Fang Datian.

Wea was so frightened that he quickly shrank behind his younger brother.

He is honest, but because of his ugly appearance, he has a very low self-esteem.

Zhang Fei stepped forward and said with a smile, "How about three coins?"

Fang Datian was taken aback, and said, "What three pennies?"

Zhang Fei said with a smile: "This is an important place in the government. If you vent your anger here, you will be punished, but you can spend three pennies to ask me to appeal for you, so you can avoid the pain of flesh and blood."

Fang Datian turned his head to look at the gate of the government office, a flash of fear flashed in his eyes, but he still said unforgivingly: "Oh! It was you who encouraged Wei Ada to falsely accuse me."

Zhang Fei said: "If the Zhizhou judges us to win the case later, then your 'false accusation' is alluding to the Zhizhou's injustice, which can constitute the crime of defaming officials. If you want me to help you defend, then you have to I'll charge you thirty guan, after all, you're slandering Zhizhou!"

"You!"

Fang Datian is also a commoner after all, and he was also afraid of the government in his heart, so he was immediately bluffed by Zhang Fei.

At this time, a person came up behind him. This person's name was Fang Dagen and he was Fang Datian's younger brother. Let’s be fair.”

After saying that, he dragged Fang Datian away.

After a while, many nearby citizens came here one after another. After all, there was a lack of entertainment in ancient times, and it is not very common to open courts for trial. Many curious people came to watch.

After about a cup of tea time, the gate of the government office was slowly opened.

Seeing Liu Hai and the two servants coming out of the gate, he glanced at Zhang Fei, first gave him a hard look, and then summoned Fang Datian, Wei Ada, and Zhang Fei in a loud voice. people.

Entering the gate of Defu, first lead the three of them to the west corridor, hand over the pleadings, and after being inspected by the officials, when they were young, they heard the summons and went out of the corridor to the hospital.

Because the trial is open, the place for the trial is not arranged in the hall, but in the courtyard in front of the lobby.

Compared to being so casual the first time, this time is much more solemn!

Eight yamen on each side held black and red water and fire sticks and chanted: "Mighty" while pestling the ground.

At the same time, put up a wooden sign on each side.

Avoid! quiet!

This is Tangwei.

The outside of the government office suddenly fell silent.

Na Wei Ada was so frightened that his legs gave way and he was about to collapse on the ground. Zhang Fei hurriedly grabbed him with one hand, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, this is to scare the bad guys, we are good guys."

As he spoke, he glanced at Fang Datian next to him, and saw that although he was not going to collapse directly, his legs were trembling, so he couldn't help laughing secretly. The other party didn't even have a defense lawyer. Am I being a bit deceptive? too much.

Amidst the majestic voice, Xu Zun entered from the east corridor in official uniform. He had a panoramic view of Zhang Fei and Wei Ada's small movements just now, and thought, this kid is really extraordinary!
