The magistrate decided the life and death of two people while chatting and laughing, without even quoting a single legal provision. Zhang Wenyuan was shocked, Ma De, this stupid magistrate convicted himself without even asking me a word. This is how cases are tried in feudal society. Isn't that too arbitrary? Even if my friend is guilty, he still has the right to appeal, right?

Thinking of this, he became furious. Just when he was about to protest, Yan Poxi shouted in advance, "Master, please spare my life. I am wronged, wronged!"

Seeing her shouting that she was wronged, Zhang Wenyuan also shouted loudly, "Master, I was wronged too. Really, I was so wronged. I don't accept the way you judge the case!"

Yan Poxi shouted again, "The slave family also has grievances, huge grievances."

Seeing the two of them shouting injustice in unison, Shi Wenbin couldn't help but frowned and shouted, "The facts are there and the evidence of the crime is conclusive. What injustice is there?"

Yan Poxi cried loudly without waiting for Zhang Wenyuan to speak, "Master Qingtian, the slave family is doing things unjustly. The slave family and Zhang Sanqing are innocent. How can there be talk of adultery? Zhang San went to the slave family not to commit adultery with the slave, but actually to have something to do with Song Dynasty. When Song Yasi was not around, he asked the slave about it, and there was nothing out of bounds!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Xing and Zhou Yi, who had sent them over, couldn't help it anymore and shouted sternly, "Nonsense, Zhang San was still asleep on your bed when we went there, and he didn't even wear any clothes! I don't know what you are doing. Confidential matters must be discussed on the bed?"

Hearing such an exciting thing, everyone in the hall became energetic and looked at Zhang Wenyuan, and then glanced at Song Jiang, thinking that today's morning meeting was not in vain.

Yan Poxi continued to make up lies, "This... Zhang San fell down on the road and fell into a muddy pond. His clothes were all dirty and he couldn't wear them anymore. The Nu family thought that Zhang San was Song Yasi's good friend and couldn't bear to look at him. He was allowed to enter the room to change clothes because he made a fool of himself. If you don’t believe it, you can ask my mother-in-law, she can testify for us!”

Wang Xing said angrily, "Since we are changing clothes, where are the clothes we changed from?"

'This... can no longer be worn, it was thrown away by the slave family! "

"Lost?" Wang Xing snorted, "Where was it lost?"

Yan Po said sadly, "Throw it into the stove and burn it!"

This thing has absolutely no proof!

Zhou Yi snorted coldly, "Then why do you run away as soon as we leave?"

Wang Xing touched his neck and agreed, "Yes, Zhang San even punched me!"

Yan Poxi continued to quibble, "Well... this... melon fields and plum trees, I can't explain it at the moment, so I can only run away!"

Hearing her talking nonsense like this, Shi Wenbin almost laughed angrily and said angrily, "That's nonsense. Everyone has taken the stolen goods. How can I say it with such innocence? It seems that you can't be punished without severe punishment for such a cunning person." Be convinced!”

Yan Poxi's nonsense not only made the whole hall laugh, but also made Shi Wenbin furious, pushing Zhang Wenyuan into the endless abyss.

Zhang Wenyuan wanted to strangle her to death, but he had no choice but to endure it at this time. There was no other way. This stupid woman had never read a book and did not understand the law. It was already a good reason to think of this.

Zhang Wenyuan decided to change his mind to save himself. He pondered for a while, and soon thought of a reason to refute, and said loudly, "Your Majesty, I have two reasons for not being convinced. The eldest master is a top three Jinshi, and he can distinguish right from wrong. You man, you will definitely be able to allow me to argue."

Seeing him taking the initiative to put a high hat on himself, Shi Wenbin snorted, "Tell me, if so."

Zhang Wenyuan paused and said loudly, "First of all, I have to admit that what Yan Poxi said just now is all nonsense. We did sleep... so what?"

Seeing him voluntarily admitting it, everyone was shocked, and then a look of contempt appeared on their faces. When Yan Poxi saw that he exposed her lie as soon as he opened his mouth, she wanted to curse him in a hurry, but when she thought that the person in front of her was her lover, she had to hold it back.

Shi Wenbin snorted again and motioned for him to continue.

Zhang Wenyuan continued, "First, Song Jiang's wife-raising room is not established. Although Yan Po was raised in the outside room by Xi Song Yasi, Song Yasi did not help her deregister, and Yan Poxi was still a prostitute in terms of status. .Although Song Yasi bought her a house and paid for her living expenses, there was no purchase and sale document, and Yan Poxi did not meet the Song family’s parents-in-law and clan members. Therefore, whether in terms of law or clan law, Yan Poxi They are not considered Song Yasi's wife. Song Yasi is just sleeping in flowers and willows, and is not considered a wife at all. Secondly, since Yan Poxi and Song Yasi do not have a transaction document, nor did they meet Song Yasi. My family is still just a prostitute in terms of status, and I am actually just living in Mianhuasuliu. We are all Mianhuasuliu, so how can we talk about adultery?"

Zhang Wenyuan's few simple words stunned the people present. Everyone looked at each other and said to themselves that this guy is worthy of being a prosecutor who specializes in criminal prosecutions. He is indeed sharp-tongued. A case that is a sure thing makes him stunned. He found the loopholes and turned it to his advantage!

Lieutenant Gao had a smile on his face and said to himself, Xiao Zhang San, you are indeed my right-hand man. You can turn this kind of case over. It seems that I have not misjudged the person. Although he was happy in his heart, he did not dare to show it on his face. He still pretended to be angry, snorted heavily and shouted, "Huh, bold Zhang San, stop messing around here, since Song Yasi has already You have spent a huge sum of money to support Yan Poxi and her daughter, how come you don’t have the purchase and sale documents? Song Yasi, please take out the documents and show him quickly to make him give up!"

Song Jiang was silent. Zhang Wenyuan was right. Although Yan Poxi was raised outside by her, she never signed the deed of sale, and he didn't know whether she was a lowly person. If he was a good citizen, it would be easy to say, but if he was really a lowly citizen, then Zhang Sanke would have escaped from his shell and successfully landed ashore.

Thinking of this, he looked at Yan Poxi and saw that she was looking at Zhang Wenyuan with a joyful expression. His heart sank. He said that he had really made an oversight and let Zhang Wenyuan escape.

The chief secretary, Xiao Qian, was extremely smart. When Song Jiang didn't say anything, he knew that Zhang Wenyuan had grasped the key to the matter. Before Yan Poxi could speak, he quickly changed the subject and said, "What Gao Xianwei said makes sense. Although Yan Poxi has not left his country, he is related to him." The name of Song Yasi has been decided. Zhang San, you know that she is Song Jiang's aunt and still go to hook up with her, which shows that you have extremely low character. The eldest master punishes you justly, how can you be wronged? "

The county magistrate He Daosheng also seized the opportunity to flatter the county master, "Yes, yes! The master often said that the world is deteriorating and people's hearts are not as good as they used to be. In my opinion, people like you have not been punished. As the old saying goes, As the saying goes, "To govern troubled times, use heavy rules." If we don't severely punish people like you, it will be difficult to bring peace to the world!"

The county magistrate and the chief registrar publicly defended Song Jiang, but Gao Keji was unwilling. Zhang Wenyuan was his person, and the case was also within his jurisdiction. The county magistrate was the deputy county magistrate, so he naturally had the power to intervene in the matter, but the chief registrar was not involved. Xiao Qian's blatant intervention in this matter is stretching his hand too far, right? I was just not favored by the magistrate because I messed up Chao Gai's errand, and I didn't die. You are not taking me seriously by doing this, right?

Thinking of this, an evil fire arose in his heart, and he stopped playing riddles with them. Instead, he stared at Xiao Qian with wide eyes and said word by word, "The state has national laws, and every family has its own rules. The Song Dynasty has the "Song Code", and it can't be decided just by shouting a few slogans."

After saying that, Chao Shi Wenbin cupped his hands and said, "My lord, the key to this case lies in the identity of Yan Poxi. Is Song Jiang a foreigner or a sleeping flower in a willow? Is Zhang Wenyuan an adulterer or a sleeping flower in the Liuliu like Song Jiang?" , the key lies in Yan Poxi’s deed of betrayal. Now only by asking Song Jiang and Yan Poxi to take out the deed of betrayal and check them one by one can they distinguish right from wrong. Please let me know the right from wrong. "
