Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 80: Trial trial (Part 1)
Fart?
Gong Lu twitched his brows a few times,
If possible, he really wanted to give Zhang Fei a good meal.
I believe this is also the voice of many people in the hospital.
But it doesn't mean that everyone supports Lin Fei and opposes Zhang Fei. In fact, there are still some people who support Zhang Fei.
These people are relatives of the emperor.
Although they were all silent, they firmly supported Zhang Fei in their hearts, because some civil cases involving the common people caused headaches for these royal relatives, not only facing the pressure from the Queen Mother, but also having to deal with it The censor of the court.
If the civil case can be settled civilly, it will of course be beneficial to them, which is equivalent to providing them with a new means.
Isn't it just money?
If money can solve a problem, can that be considered a problem?
Many relatives of the royal family quietly came to the gate of Kaifeng Mansion to watch.
Of course, Cao Ping was also included, but he was hiding alone at the side door of the lobby, which was the door Lu Gong went in and out of.
After all, he is the suspect's family member and has a special status. It is reasonable to give him a special seat. What if someone throws rotten eggs at him.
Of course Cao Ping hopes that Zhang Fei can win this lawsuit. For him, this is the most perfect solution. If he wins in full view, no one will dare to talk in the future.
Otherwise, even if Cao Dongdong is acquitted, he will be scolded miserably.
After a while, Lin Fei and Cao Dongdong were brought into the hall.
Zhang Fei glanced at Cao Dongdong, almost didn't laugh out loud, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, he thought, his father is really vigorous.
You don't need to think about it, you know, it must be his father who beat him, and the Kaifeng government dare not use punishment on him, although the punishment is legal.
At this time, Cao Dongdong was not as arrogant as before, when he came to the hall, he looked at Zhang Fei full of grievances.
Zhang Fei nodded slightly, as if to say, calm down. With brother here, don't be afraid. But I thought in my heart, I deserve it, let your kid cover me with a sack, beat me well, beat me hard.
On the contrary, it was Lin Fei with an angry expression on his face, as if he wanted to kill someone.
Huang Gui first bowed his hands to Lu Gongzhu and Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei also made a gesture of invitation.
People outside the hospital are all looking forward to it.
This is the first public trial, and both sides have defenders. In the past, in those commercial disputes, both parties would also invite tea and eat people, but it was limited to confrontation of pleadings. The officials also questioned one by one, and then finally issued a judgment, so they would not be allowed to debate at the same time.
Sima Guang, Xu Zun, and Wang Anshi also looked forward to it, but their perspective was different from most people's. He was observing whether this public trial system was worth recommending to the imperial court, and then promoted it nationwide.
Huang Gui first asked Lin Fei to tell the story.
Lin Fei was talking about what happened that day excitedly, during which time the audience at the door was angry several times, which really increased Lu Gong's workload.
Shooting gavels in this winter is also very uncomfortable. If you accidentally shoot it on your thumb, it will really hurt like hell!
Actually, he seldom hears cases in winter.
Tang Jie and others in the courtyard couldn't help but nodded in relief when they saw that the scholars at the door were all facing Lin Fei.
Huang Gui has been on the battlefield for a long time. Although it is the first time to play, he has also mastered some tricks. He only picks out details that are not conducive to Cao Dongdong, and seems to intend to arouse public anger.
After asking Lin Fei, Huang Gui started to ask Cao Dongdong again.
The first half of the confessions of the two were similar. They hunted and returned to Lin's house to drink, but when they talked about the dinner, they disagreed.
"You said that Mrs. Lin used to seduce you with winking eyes when she poured wine for you during the dinner?"
"Yes."
Cao Dongdong nodded.
Huang Gui asked: "Could it be that Mrs. Lin is shy, and you may have misunderstood it?"
Hearing this question, Zhang Fei couldn't help but nodded approvingly, thinking, it seems that he is well prepared!
Lu Gong saw it in his eyes, but thought in his heart, what is wrong with this question?
Cao Dongdong said angrily: "What are you talking about, winking and shyness, can't I tell the difference between this office? It's not you in this office."
Huang Gui said, "How do you say that?"
Cao Dongdong reasoned and said: "Although I am not as old as you, I know women better than you. I have more concubines than your maids. Do you believe it?"
As soon as these words came out, many people in the courtyard shook their heads!
But many more were silent.
Because keeping prostitutes is a custom in the Northern Song Dynasty.
But it's not good to say it.
Although Cao Ping hid by the door alone, he still couldn't hold back his son's boldness, and covered his face, ashamed to see others.
"I believe! I believe!"
Huang Gui nodded again and again, "So I don't know what winking is, can you show it to everyone?"
"Of course!"
Cao Dongdong seemed to have a desire to perform, so he winked at Huang Gui.
"Ouch!"
As if forgetting the injury at the corner of the eye, he groaned in pain again.
It caused the mighty and unyielding yamen on both sides to hold back their laughter.
Huang Gui and Zhang Fei even laughed out loud.
It's okay for Huang Gui to laugh, Zhang Fei, you laugh too?
Cao Dongdong immediately glared at Zhang Fei, "Zhang San, you are not mine, why are you still laughing at me?"
Zhang Fei hehe said: "But I am also a human being!"
Grand Lu patted the gavel lightly, "Zhang San, you have to abide by the rules you set yourself."
"Sorry!"
Zhang Fei hurriedly bowed his hands and said solemnly: "This is Xiaomin's fault, and Xiaomin will never do it again."
You can't shout against it, it's definitely in his favor, he has to defend the rule.
Huang Gui said very generously: "No problem, no problem!"
His smile is a plus.
But as outsiders, Sima Guang and Wang Anshi saw that Zhang Fei was smiling thoughtfully, and they were also wondering in their hearts what nirvana he was hiding.
Huang Gui continued to ask Cao Dongdong: "According to the confession of the servant girl in the Lin family, after you were drunk, Mrs. Lin asked the maid to help you to rest, but you insisted on letting Mrs. Lin help you, is it true? "
Cao Dongdong nodded straightly and said: "She hinted at me like that, and I'm not a person who doesn't understand style, so I took the initiative, but she didn't resist much."
Huang Gui immediately asked: "That means Mrs. Lin still resisted."
Cao Dongdong said: "It's just a little tweaking."
As he spoke, he twisted his buttocks.
There was another burst of laughter outside the door.
Of course, it's all ridicule, without exception!
Tang Jie hummed: "This is really embarrassing!"
But Wang Anshi said: "I think telling the truth is not a shameful thing, at least it is much better than those hypocritical words."
Tang Jie said angrily: "I just don't understand how the Cao family thought about it, and it's not that they shouldn't confess truthfully."
Sima Guang said: "Don't make rash judgments first."
Tang Jie looked at Sima Guang in surprise.
Na Lu Gong also shook his head, he didn't bother to pat the gavel, this is endless.
Cao Ping looked worried, and thought, this three will not know the traitor sent by the other party!
He has already learned from Taozi that Cao Dongdong and Zhang Fei have been in touch, so logically speaking, Zhang Fei should tell Cao Dongdong how to answer, but from the current point of view, there is no such thing at all.
Only Sima Guang can see clearly, because he has experienced this trick before, and Zhang Fei's parties and witnesses all tell the truth, without any breakthrough, which is really **** me off.
The more Huang Gui asked, the more confident he became, "Could it be that Mrs. Lin was very resistant, but in front of the yamen, her resistance turned into a little bit of coercion. After all, Mrs. Lin's strength is far inferior to Ya Nei."
Zhang Fei nodded approvingly again, thinking, in the future, this person must be dug into our bookstore.
Cao Dongdong said disdainfully: "Impossible, I still don't know."
Huang Gui didn't bother, and continued to ask: "What about after that?"
Cao Dongdong said: "After that, she helped me into the room, and we fell on the bed...!"
Huang Gui interrupted Cao Dongdong, "I fell on the bed, but according to Mrs. Lin's confession, you threw her on the bed."
Cao Dongdong thought for a while, and said, "It's pretty much it."
Huang Gui said: "And she resisted fiercely."
"No!"
Cao Dongdong said: "She didn't resist fiercely."
Huang Guidao: "Did Mrs. Lin say 'No'?"
"Poof!"
Zhang Fei couldn't hold back again, he laughed out loud, then quickly lowered his head and shrugged his shoulders.
Cao Dongdong didn't notice this time, he nodded and said solemnly: "That's what I said."
There was a burst of shouting and cursing at the door.
How shameless!
People say no, but you still want it.
What is it if it is not rape?
"Silence!"
Lu Gong hurriedly patted the gavel a few times, his thumb was so painful from the shock.
"After that?"
"After that, Coach Lin broke in and wanted to sue me."
"Why didn't you report it?"
"Didn't I just say that I was held back by Wu Yuhou, but then they threatened me and asked me to give them a promotion, otherwise, they would sue me."
"Is Lin Fei agreeing like this?"
"He didn't agree before, but later Wu Yuhou said that my family background is prominent, if I go to sue the officials, I'm afraid I will get angry and implicate him, so the head coach Lin agreed."
"Really?"
Huang Gui smiled and asked, "Why is this not mentioned in the confession?"
Cao Dongdong said unhappily: "I don't know, you can ask them! I was very scared at the time, but I just wrote according to what they said."
Huang Gui asked again: "Afterwards, the yamen asked Xu Zhiqian, the daughter of Xu Zunxu's temple affairs, to threaten Coach Lin, forcing him to have nowhere to go, so he came to sue the officials."
Cao Dongdong said with a look of grievance: "I didn't. How can I order that lady Xu? I'm always scared. It's all because of Zhang San."
Zhang Fei immediately looked at Mr. Lu.
Lu Gong nodded and said: "Say."
I also wondered how this kid understands the rules today.
Zhang Fei immediately said: "I asked Mrs. Xu to go, but it was not a threat. I will explain later."
Next, Huang Gui passed on the Marquis Yu who was surnamed Wu.
Let him tell the story about Cao Dongdong signing the confession.
Wu Yuhou spoke similarly to Cao Dongdong, but his answer was more reasonable.
Actually, this confession also has a doubtful point.
At that time, it was stolen and stolen. Either you sued the officials, or you just let the matter rest.
For Cao Dongdong to sign the confession, this is indeed a motive for extortion.
However, the existence of Wu Yuhou made this confession very reasonable.
Lin Fei asked to sue the officials, but Wu Yuhou did not dare to sue. Lin Fei just thought of his brotherhood with Wu Yuhou, so he let Cao Dongdong go. This confession is to ensure that Cao Dongdong will not retaliate against them , not for extortion.
This is exactly the mentality of a small person.
Since Wu Yuhou came to the hall, Zhang Fei's expression became serious, thinking, this guy's answer is perfect, maybe he came up with this plan, and I have to avoid this person later, so as not to cause trouble.
