Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 9: The intertwining of fate

Outside the courtyard, the citizens were still enthusiastic and cheered for Zhang Fei.

Moreover, there are far more people who come to watch the trial this time than last time, and there are many young talents and scholars among them. These young people are all passionate and lack rational thinking. Willing to follow your inner feelings.

On the one hand, they think that Fang Datian is the culprit, but on the other hand, they also sympathize with Ayun, a beautiful girl, and think she is innocent.

Of course, there are always two sides to this matter, and many people think that Ah Yun deserved what he deserved. Most of these people are elders, relatively conservative, and pay more attention to etiquette.

It's just that these people are relatively silent, and they don't come here specially to watch the trial, which makes Zhang Fei appear to be very powerful.

However, after a long time, it's already past time, and the gate of the government office is still closed, everyone can't help but start to mutter again.

Is something wrong?

And Zhang Fei was also very worried, as soon as the official was changed, something went wrong, so how could he not be afraid.

After a while, Liu Hai came out suddenly and summoned Zhang Fei into the hall.

But after Zhang Fei entered, the gate of the government office was closed again.

This puzzled the citizens waiting outside, didn't they mean a public trial?

Why did Zhang San go in alone.

Is it possible that the government will change its mind?

Or are they trying to force Zhang Fei to give up the lawsuit?

All kinds of speculations have sprung up like bamboo shoots after rain.

It seems that throughout the ages, conspiracy theories have always been loved by the people!

"Xiaomin Zhang San met Zhizhou."

When I came to the lobby, I saw Xu Zun and Xu Yuan inside, but I didn't see the criminal officer Cao Yan, and Xu and Xu looked solemn, which made Zhang Fei feel even more uneasy!

Xu Zun asked: "Zhang San, I want to ask you, do you want to complain for Ayun?"

In this regard, Zhang Fei nodded firmly and said: "Yes."

Xu Zun said again: "Then you dare to go to Bianliang to appeal for it?"

Zhang Fei turned pale with shock, "Appeal to Bianliang?"

Xu Zun asked, "Are you afraid?"

"It's not that Xiaomin is afraid, it's just that he doesn't understand why he suddenly appealed to Bianliang?" Zhang Fei asked in confusion.

Xu Yuan couldn't help but said: "It's all thanks to you. If you hadn't said something to avoid the crime, how could things have come to this point."

"Huh?"

Xu Zun gave Xu Yuan a slight look, and then said to Zhang Fei who was in a daze: "Why didn't you use the excuse of being too defensive to appeal for Ayun, but to avoid the crime of the cause, don't you Say you just thought of it."

Since we are going to Bianliang, he and I are already a united front, and we should not hide anything. Zhang Fei hesitated for a while, and said truthfully: "Xiaomin dare not lie to Zhizhou. Xiaomin really planned to appeal against Ayun for being too defensive, but Xiaomin had just come out at that time, and many evidences had not been found out. They were just speculations. I dare not Jump to conclusions."

Xu Zundao: "In this case, why don't you wait to find out before complaining to the official."

"Uh."

"It's not true." Xu Zun shouted.

Zhang Fei said: "I don't want to hide from Zhizhou, Xiaomin just wants to test Zhizhou's attitude towards this case, because Xiaomin knows very well that without the support of Zhizhou, it is impossible to succeed."

This is the fact, because his judgment of Xu Zun's behavior is completely based on the history books. He must confirm that Xu Zun is indeed as written in the history books, otherwise, he cannot win the lawsuit.

Of course, during his interrogation, he already knew a little about Xu Zun's character, so he dared to do that before.

"Also!"

Zhang Fei added: "Xiaomin also believes that if he wants to appeal for Ayun, he must first get enough compensation for Wei Ada. No matter what, Wei Ada is the biggest victim of this case, and he is also the biggest victim of this case. I need his help as a key witness."

"Your boy is really thoughtful!"

On the one hand, Xu Zun admired Zhang Fei's attitude, but on the other hand, he hated it so much that it was clear that he was being plotted by a young boy.

Zhang Fei hurriedly said: "Xiao Min is guilty."

Xu Zun also understands the reason, so he will not blame him, he just said: "I will not hide it from you, now things have become a little complicated, Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs insist on upholding the original sentence, but many officials It is to support this official, which is the reason why this official was transferred back to Dali Temple."

He spoke cryptically, but the meaning is self-evident. Dali Temple objected and transferred him back to Dali Temple. Obviously, those who supported him hoped to go back to preside over the case and change the original judgment of Dali Temple .

Zhang Fei knew very well in his heart that the person who supported him was none other than Wang Anshi.

The person who opposed him was Sima Guang.

The reason why this case has become a strange case through the ages is not because of how complicated the case itself is. It opened the prelude to Wang Anshi's reform, and also became the fuse of the party struggle in the Northern Song Dynasty.

This has evolved from a judicial struggle to a political one.

Although Zhang Fei did not expect that Tokyo would transfer Xu Zun back so quickly, he was prepared for it because he knew about it in advance, but what he imagined was that Xu Zun would still come forward in the game above. He made suggestions in the back, after all, his status was too humble, obviously, this was a bit different from what he imagined, he hesitated for a while, and then said: "Xiaomin is not afraid of debate, but afraid of being treated unfairly, after all, Xiaomin is just a common people."

Xu Zun nodded slightly and said: "That's all right, you go back and prepare, and you will go to Beijing with me in two days."

Zhang Fei suddenly said: "But before I leave, I still want to see someone."

Xu Zun nodded after thinking for a moment.

He didn't ask who that person was because he didn't need to.

.

Although Xu Zun has been defending Ayun, but before he succeeds, Ayun is still a repeat offender, and he can even be said to be a death row prisoner. Shackles bound.

When the heavy cell door opened, a strong light shot into the room. A Yun subconsciously covered the strong light with his hand, and faintly saw a slender figure shining into the room.

After a while, she gradually got used to it, and the figure gradually became clear, it was a handsome young man.

"You don't know me." The young man smiled at her.

Ayun shook his head dully.

The young man squatted down and said, "Do you remember that you rescued a drowning man from the river a few months ago."

"Ah!"

Ah Yun immediately exclaimed, "It's you."

It was Zhang Fei who came.

Zhang Fei smiled and nodded, "It's me."

Ayun left after saving Zhang Fei in a hurry, and Zhang Fei was dressed strangely at the time, so she didn't recognize him for a while.

Ayun asked with concern: "Are you also imprisoned? I have already explained to them that I don't know you. This matter has nothing to do with you."

Speaking of the latter, there was a bit of self-blame in her voice.

Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Don't worry, my misunderstanding has been explained clearly, I have already been free, and I came here this time to repay your life-saving grace."

Ayun breathed a sigh of relief, then shook his head and said: "To tell you the truth, I was also in a daze at the time. I didn't know why I saved you. You don't need to repay me."

Zhang Fei saw that she was as skinny as he was in prison, with bluish cheeks, only those big eyes were still so clear, bright and charming. Sighing in my heart, I said, "Maybe you just did it unintentionally, but to me, the meaning is more important than saving my life."

A Yun said in astonishment: "Is it more important than the grace of saving lives?"

"Yeah."

Zhang Fei nodded. The reason why he insisted on appealing for Ayun was because he believed that in his previous life, his mother gave him life, but in this life it was Ayun who gave him rebirth.

This kind of relationship can't be explained clearly, but he only knows that he must rescue Ah Yun.

A Yun shook his head and said, "I don't understand."

Zhang Fei smiled and said, "You just need to know that I will definitely rescue you."

Ayun shook his head and said: "How is this possible? I really want to commit a serious crime. You can't save me. You'd better leave quickly, lest you will be involved again."

Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Actually, I'm also very curious. Where did you, a weak woman, get the strength to drag a man like me ashore?"

Ayun thought about it seriously, then shook his head and said, "I don't know either."

Zhang Fei said: "This power will also help me rescue you from here."

Ayun lowered his eyelids and said: "We are different, you are innocent, but I am indeed guilty."

Zhang Fei said: "But you have also been punished as you should."

When he was speaking, he looked up at the wet stone wall, and said again: "So don't worry, I will definitely rescue you, just like you rescued me back then."

At this point, he paused for a moment and said, "But I have a question to ask you for confirmation."

A Yun said: "What's the problem?"

Zhang Fei said: "As far as I know, your uncle has always wanted to get your family's land. This is not the first time they forced you to marry, right?"

Ayun was stunned for a moment, and said, "Why do you ask this?"

Zhang Fei said: "Don't worry about it, you have to think about it, did they want to marry you off before?"

Ayun thought for a while, then nodded and said, "There have been a few times."
