There was a sudden uproar in the yard in front of the door.
For many people, this turn was too sudden.
It collapsed all of a sudden.
Although Lu Gongzhe was not surprised, because he already suspected that it was Lin Fei who did it, even if Lin Fei did not admit it, he would send people to investigate those suspicious points. However, he looked at Huang Gui depressedly.
Huang Gui shook his head slightly in embarrassment.
They didn't do any investigation into this.
Lu Gong couldn't help but blush and wondered what we were doing.
Wang Anshi whispered to Xu Zun, "Brother Zhongtu, do you know the origins of that Madam Lin?"
Sima Guang immediately listened attentively.
Xu Zun whispered, "Prostitute."
...
...
Wang Anshi and Sima Guang suddenly looked enlightened.
Tang Jie, who was eavesdropping on the conversation, suddenly said, "This can only be considered a suspicious point, and it won't force Lin Fei to plead guilty."
Sima Guang said: "Lin Fei himself couldn't defend himself, there were so many loopholes, and his wife's identity was a question mark, how could he defend himself? Lies are lies after all, and they can't stand up to questioning."
Wang Anshi said, "But it also shows that Lin Fei is also a man who values friendship and loyalty. He pleaded guilty in advance to protect Mrs. Lin. If his wife came to court, Zhang San would question her about her background. How embarrassing it would be!"
Tang Jie nodded slightly.
really.
With Zhang Fei's rhetoric skills, Mrs. Lin's loophole would definitely be exposed.
Wang Anshi suddenly whispered to Sima Guang: "I know exactly where you lost before."
Sima Guang immediately looked at him with contempt: "You just found out, but I knew it a long time ago."
Wang Anshi was immediately embarrassed.
detail!
Sima Guang lost because of the details.
Now this scene is happening again.
The only difference between Zhang Fei's defense and others is his details.
After this case broke out, no one paid attention to Lin Fei's drinking capacity, no one paid attention to how often Lin Fei treated guests, and no one paid attention to Lin Fei's wife.
The only thing they were concerned about was the confession.
I think that's irrefutable evidence.
With this evidence in hand, it would be very difficult to overturn the verdict.
This is also one of the reasons why Zhang Fei is unwilling to provide evidence, because he has the details, and if he takes it out too early, he will not be able to achieve the effect of surprise.
Lu Gongzhe suddenly slammed the gavel and said, "Lin Fei, why don't you tell the truth?"
"Actually, I have already made it very clear just now." Zhang Fei took over the conversation.
Lin Fei and Lu Gong looked at Zhang Fei in surprise at the same time.
Zhang Fei sighed, "Once upon a time, I also thought that Master Lin did this for the sake of fame and fortune. But Xu Zhiqian thought there was another hidden reason behind this.
So I made a bet with Xu Zhiqian that Xu Zhiqian would persuade Lin Fei to give up the confession because we already had enough evidence.
If Lin Fei gave up, it would prove that he was greedy for fame and fortune. If he didn't, it could only mean that he wanted to use Kaifeng Prefecture to tell his grievances.
Unfortunately, Xu Zhiqian won. Coach Lin knew that his chances of winning were slim, but he still insisted on doing it. In fact, he knew very well that once the case went to court, even if he won, he would still lose. Not only would he not get a promotion, but he would never be able to make a name for himself again.
But he still has to do it, for a simple reason, if not, who will be able to hear him talk. "
“......!”
There was silence inside and outside the hall, with only the sound of Zhang Fei's powerful defense lingering in the air.
This made Cao Dongdong, who was standing by, very puzzled.
Why didn't he plead guilty? The people at the door were cursing him to death.
Now that Lin Fei has pleaded guilty, why is there no sound at the door?
It's not bullying.
Sensational!
This guy is being sentimental again!
The routine remains the same!
But Lu Gong had no way to deal with this.
Because he is a little confused now.
Who is Zhang Fei's defense attorney?
Even if Huang Gui asked himself, even if he disregarded justice and still defended Lin Fei, he was afraid that the effect would not be as good as Zhang Fei's!
Lu Gong said: "No reason can be used as an excuse for committing a crime."
"The prefect is impartial and just, and the common people admire him deeply."
Zhang Fei bowed and said, "But I am here to defend Cao Dongdong today."
You know it too!
When Lu Gong heard this, he almost burst into swearing.
Cao Dongdong couldn't help it, and jumped up and down on the spot, "You finally remembered me."
Lu Gongzhe deeply agreed and wanted to give Cao Dongdong a thumbs up.
Zhang Fei glanced at Cao Dongdong and said loudly: "As for my client, oh, that is, Cao Dongdong, I think he has suffered too much injustice in this case, and the reason is simply because he is a yanei."
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Cao Dongdong nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
"Is Cao Dongdong guilty?"
Zhang Fei shook his head and said, "I think he is innocent. I can only say that he made a mistake. Because no matter what the reason is, he still had evil thoughts about a married woman, which is obviously wrong."
Cao Dongdong looked at Zhang Fei angrily.
Lin Fei is guilty, but you say it so tactfully. I am innocent, but you say it so frankly.
Which way are you heading?
Then Zhang Fei said, "But please understand one thing, Yanei is only eighteen or nineteen years old now, full of vigor and vitality, and has little experience in the world. In addition, he was drunk, and the other party took the initiative to seduce him, so it is understandable that he could not control himself."
Having said this, he paused for a moment and continued, "Although on the night of the incident, due to the other party's intimidation, Cao Yanei was frightened and uneasy, and finally signed a confession, but afterwards Cao Yanei refused to do so and would rather fight with him in court.
But don't overlook one point. Cao Yanei could have used his family background to help Lin Fei get the promotion he deserved. I believe this is not very difficult for Yanei. This way he can also avoid being scolded by his parents and going to jail. I believe many people would choose to do this.
But Yanei did not do so. Why? Because Yanei knew very well that the Cao family could have the status it has today because of the blood and sweat of their ancestors and the great grace of the emperor.
If he did so, he would cast a shadow on the glory of the Cao family forever, and it would never be washed away. Although Yanei made a big mistake, he firmly held the bottom line on major issues. He did not do anything that would harm the country or his family, and he endured everything silently. "
Good, good, good! If you can speak, just say a few words!
Cao Dongdong was immediately moved by these words, his eyes welling up with tears. It turns out...it turns out that I am so great?
Zhang Fei sighed again: "I have to say that I am deeply touched by this officer. You might as well think about it carefully. In fact, what Yanei insists on is exactly what Lin Fei pursues, but they chose to go to court."
Lin Fei and Cao Dongdong looked at each other at the same time. There was less resentment in each other's eyes, and more understanding.
"I was so engrossed in what I was hearing that I almost forgot about it!"
Wang Anshi chuckled.
Sima Guang smiled and said, "This is the most important thing."
The two of them walked outside while laughing.
"good!"
"Well said!"
"As expected of Erbi Zhangsan, you said it very well!"
"Zhang San, I misunderstood you before. I'm so sorry!"
There was a sudden burst of cheers at the door.
This last sentence seemed to elevate the entire lawsuit.
Amid the cheers of the crowd, Lu Gong announced the verdict, Cao Dongdong was acquitted, and at the same time ordered people to arrest Lin Fei.
As for Mrs. Lin and Wu Yuhou, he did not order anyone to let them come to court. This was also an important legal idea in the Song Dynasty, which was to protect the right to privacy.
"Thanks!"
Lin Fei, who was escorted by two yamen runners, said to Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei sighed, "But I can only help you so far."
Lin Fei nodded.
Cao Dongdong suddenly said, "Master Lin, if there is a chance, I want to have another drink with you."
Lin Fei nodded with tears in his eyes, "Sorry!"
Zhang Fei couldn't help but glance at Cao Dongdong, thinking that this person is worth making friends with.
"Zhang San!"
Huang Gui suddenly walked over.
"Huang Zhubu!"
Zhang Fei quickly bowed.
Huang Gui cupped his hands and said, "I lost this debate with all my heart, and it also benefited me a lot."
In the previous lawsuits, he was still somewhat dissatisfied with Zhang Fei, after all, he was suspected of taking advantage. But this time was different. Zhang Fei really used his rhetoric and sufficient preparation to force the truth out of him.
This kind of rhetoric really made him see the light.
Zhang Fei said modestly: "Thank you, thank you."
