Chapter 205: Laws are nothing but human feelings



Under Xu Zhiqian's strong dissuasion, after Uncle Huang's intimidation failed, he hired Li Guozhong to file a lawsuit against the Silusi.

This case is not a criminal case, and generally it will not be handled by the Left and Right Patrol Courts. However, the issues and property involved are not small, and the Left and Right Wing Officials are not of high enough rank.

The Silusi is specifically responsible for hearing such civil disputes.

At the same time, Xu Zhiqian also immediately submitted a defense statement. Now everyone knew that the one who took action this time was not Zhang Fei, but Xu Zhiqian.

This immediately caused quite a stir.

This woman can also sue?

Even the head of the Silu Division, Liang Dong, the Silu Army Officer, was a little confused, so he immediately reported it to his superiors.

Will this work?

Kaifeng Prefecture.

"This one is not satisfied with the trouble, and the couple has to fight together. This is really unreasonable."

...

...

When Li Kai heard this, he became angry.

Lu Gong then asked calmly, "What do you think?"

Li Kai immediately said, "Of course not. It's not proper for this woman to go to court to sue."

A Zhang Fei has to take a break after fighting a lawsuit. It's really scary to think about this couple taking turns to fight in the court!

Lu Gong said, "But Xu Zhiqian has been to court with Zhang San several times before."

Li Kai said unhappily, "That was all Sima Junshi and Wang Jiefu's good start. However, Xu Zhiqian was just assisting Zhang Fei and didn't say a word. They can't be confused."

Lu Gong hesitated for a moment and said, "If we don't allow it, what if Zhang San sues us at Kaifeng Prefecture on this ground?"

Li Kai's expression froze, and he said, "Prefect Lu won't let this happen, right?"

Lü Gong smiled bitterly and said, "He will definitely not sue our Kaifeng Prefecture. How can I control this?"

Li Kai asked, "Then what grounds did he use to sue?"

Lu Gong said, "How should I know? However, there is no law prohibiting women from attending court to argue. On the contrary, women can attend court to testify."

Li Kai weighed the pros and cons again and again, and sighed, "Forget it, forget it, let them be. It's better for us to have less trouble than more."

Don’t mess with me!

Records Department.

"Prince Li?"

"Brother Liang, how are you?"

"So polite! So polite!"

Liang Dong was somewhat surprised to see the sudden visit from the Imperial Censor Li Zhan. He returned the greeting with a bow and asked, "I wonder what advice Imperial Censor Li has for you?"

"I don't dare! I don't dare!" Li Zhan said hurriedly, "I just passed by and came in to visit Brother Liang. To be honest, everyone is talking about your Silu Division now."

Liang Dong sighed, "It's all because of Zhang San and Xu Zhiqian. I'm really worried about them. I don't want to be in the spotlight."

Li Zhan asked, "Can this woman go to court to argue for others?"

Liang Dong shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but the higher-ups have given permission."

Li Zhan snorted, "This Zhang San is really going too far. All of us officials have already given him a wide berth, but he still wants to push his wife out. What's going on? Does he want to take turns bullying us? If we don't stop him, it won't be long before he's riding on our heads and pissing on us."

Liang Dong also heard the purpose of his visit and said awkwardly, "Li Yushi, you have seen what happened to Wang Hong. I dare not do anything reckless."

Li Zhan said, "I have learned about this case. It is difficult for an honest judge to judge a family affair. Liang Silu just needs to conduct an impartial trial."

Liang Dong hesitated for a while, then said with some reservation: "Let's see how they perform then."

Li Zhan didn't say anything more.

He just hoped that Liang Dong would be slightly off to the side.

Because he knew that in this case, as long as the presiding judge was slightly biased, it would be very beneficial to Uncle Huang.

Now Zhang Fei has become a thorn in their eyes and a thorn in their flesh. They are now trying their best to create difficulties for Zhang Fei.

Xu Zhiqian naturally wouldn't play these tricks, she was still working hard

Under preparation.

In the evening, the afterglow fell on the Zhang family courtyard. A rather crudely built court was seen in the courtyard. However, the chief judge sitting on the main seat was the real judge of the Dali Temple - Xu Zhongtu.

On his left and right were his daughter and son-in-law.

This was definitely the most difficult case he had ever tried in his life. He sat there and kept wiping the sweat off his face.

It's absolute torture!

"I'm done asking questions."

Xu Zhiqian sat down and glanced provocatively at Zhang Fei opposite her.

"Uncle Huang."

Zhang Fei stood up.

Feng Nanxi, who was sitting in the witness chair, looked at Zhang Fei tremblingly, "Here!"

Zhang Fei asked, "I heard you have two sons."

Feng Nanxi glanced at the script and nodded.

Zhang Fei asked again: "How old are they?"

Feng Nanxi read from the script: "The youngest is seven years old, and the oldest is eleven years old."

Zhang Fei continued to ask: "How is their relationship with grandma?"

Feng Nanxi said, "The relationship is very good. After they learned that grandma had passed away, they all cried very sadly. Now they are still kneeling in the mourning hall, accompanying grandma."

Niu Beiqing, who was watching nearby, laughed and said, "Seventh Brother, you stutter so much that I can tell you're lying."

Feng Nanxi glared at him and said, "Get out of here. You didn't stutter just now, but nine out of ten sentences you said were wrong."

Li Si and Xiao Tao, who were also acting as extras at the side, were laughing happily.

Gao Wenyin and Qingmei stood aside, also fascinated by the show.

It turns out that litigation is so interesting.

Xu Zun slammed the gavel and said, "Silence."

Zhang Fei was not affected at all. He said to Xu Zun, "Chief Judge, according to my investigation, Granny Huang loves her grandson very much. Even though there are some misunderstandings between Granny Huang and her son, she will not forget her two grandsons. If Granny Huang is sober, she will definitely not easily transfer the house to Aunt Liu. This is not human nature."

Xu Zun nodded slightly and looked at Xu Zhiqian again.

Xu Zhiqian flipped through the documents on the table and was a little dumbfounded: "Why is it talking about grandson again?"

Xu Zun was anxious, and said with pity: "You said you were ready, but this ancestral house doesn't have to be passed on to your son. It can also be passed directly to your grandson. In terms of inheritance rights, the two actually have equal status. If the presiding judge noticed that this Grandma Huang has two grandsons, then it is very likely that he will not award the house to Aunt Liu."

Xu Zhiqian glanced at Xu Zun anxiously and muttered, "Is Li Guozhong really that capable? Will he consider these details?"

Xu Zun was even more furious after hearing this. He bulged his eyes and shouted, "You can't rely on others not considering it. You have to be fully prepared. Besides, many Erbi in the capital have good debate skills. It's just that compared to Zhang San, he pays too much attention to clever debate rather than actual evidence."

Xu Zhiqian's face turned red after being scolded. She looked at Zhang Fei and asked for advice, "Zhang San, how do we solve this problem? Granny Huang's two grandsons are still so young and don't know what filial piety is."

Gao Wenyin and the others also looked at Zhang Fei, and it was obvious that they had already been immersed in the role.

Zhang Fei patiently explained: "You should first think about what consequences this will bring. As my father-in-law said, the other party raised this point not to use the two grandsons to prove that Uncle Huang is a filial son, but to let the chief judge consider that even if Uncle Huang is not a filial son, he still has two ignorant grandsons who are innocent, and every grandmother hopes that her grandson will live a good life, which may change the chief judge's opinion.

After knowing their purpose, we can prescribe the right remedy. First of all, we need to prove that Uncle Huang's family is very well off. With or without this money, his two sons will not have to worry about food and clothing.

Secondly, it proves how much Aunt Liu paid to take care of Granny Huang and how difficult her life was.

This contrast can change the judge's mind. You must remember that this court

The focus of a lawsuit is family affection, and the legal basis is secondary. Therefore, in such a lawsuit, the attitude of the chief judge becomes very critical. He can make any judgment. So your question must move the chief judge and everyone present, so that the chief judge can be biased towards you. "

Xu Zunzhi nodded: "Zhang San said it very well. Emotion is the key to this case. Usually, when officials try such cases, they mostly follow two principles. When the emotion and the law are appropriate, they enforce the law according to the emotion; and when the emotion is stronger than the law, they bend the law to follow the emotion.

If this case follows the Neighborhood Law, it will most likely be awarded to Uncle Huang. Therefore, your defense will surely make the presiding judge think that this case is based on emotion rather than law. The presiding judge will not follow the Neighborhood Law, but will rule based on the actual situation, which will be in favor of Aunt Liu.

Xu Zhiqian nodded and said timidly, "My daughter will remember it."

Zhang Fei looked at her, who was so nervous that she couldn't even breathe, and couldn't help but laugh. He teased her, "Go back and edit your questions. Write until you cry before submitting them. I haven't even started yet, and you can't handle it."

Xu Zhiqian said, "I saw you fight the lawsuit, but you didn't say you made yourself cry."

Zhang Fei rolled his eyes and said, "I rely on my acting skills. Even if I'm helping Uncle Huang in a lawsuit, I can still speak touchingly. Don't embarrass yourself with your acting skills. Showing your true feelings is actually your advantage."

Xu Zhiqian said disdainfully: "So you were just pretending before?"

Zhang Fei snorted, "This is not called pretending, this is called professionalism."

"Don't get complacent yet." Xu Zhiqian curled her lips, "I'll make some changes. You won't be so relaxed next time."

I took the copy and went back to the room to revise it.

"call."

Xu Zun let out a long sigh of relief, drank a sip of tea, and said to Zhang Fei who was walking over: "Speak

It's really strange. When she was in class with you, I didn't feel nervous at all. But when she was practicing just now, she hesitated for a moment and my heart almost jumped out of my chest. It was really annoying."

Zhang Fei saw Xu Zun sweating profusely, and couldn't help but laugh secretly, but said: "This is because my father-in-law cares too much about Zhiqian."

Xu Zun asked, "Why don't you seem nervous at all?"

Zhang Fei was stunned, and hurriedly explained: "Of course I care, but I have experienced it before, and Zhiqian performed better than I did before."

Xu Zun seemed unconvinced, "Really?"

Zhang Fei nodded and said, "In fact, the most difficult thing is to be afraid of the court. Zhiqian has even been to the Political Affairs Hall before, and she is not afraid of the court. If she does her homework, there won't be any big problems. Unless the presiding judge is my father-in-law, otherwise, I still have confidence in Zhiqian."

Xu Zun snorted, "If I were the chief judge, you would probably have to worry about me."

Zhang Fei laughed out loud.

Xu Zun smiled and shook his head, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and said, "Oh, right! There is something I forgot to tell you. There are many officials in the court who recommend you to serve as an official."

Zhang Fei was stunned at first, then smiled bitterly and said, "This is almost a cliché."

There are a group of ministers in the court who have thought very thoroughly. If they compete with Zhang Fei, he is like a broken tile. If he wins, he will get nothing, but if he loses, it will be miserable. Wang Hong once again proved this point. The best way is to issue an amnesty.

Every time Zhang Fei made trouble, someone in the court would submit a memorial to recommend Zhang Fei to Emperor Shenzong. How could such a talent be allowed to be a puppet among the people? He must be recruited into the court. It happened that the court wanted to reform the judiciary and was in urgent need of talents in this area.

Xu Zun asked: "So what exactly are you planning?"

Zhang Fei hesitated for a moment and said, "I still don't have this idea for the time being."

Xu Zun asked, "Why?"

Zhang Fei did not answer but asked, "Father-in-law, what kind of official position do you think they will give me?"

Xu Zun hummed and nodded: "Actually, I also think that if you were an official, you would be able to do far less than you are doing now."
