What about the promised decisive battle at Kaifeng Mansion?
What was originally a highly anticipated blockbuster suddenly turned into a soap opera.
Many onlookers were very depressed. Although it was a bad ending, it was even more abominable to have it broken!
Of course, everything has two sides, and this gap can give everyone something to talk about after dinner.
What will be the result?
After the onlookers dispersed, many officials immediately left Kaifeng Mansion in a hurry.
Sima Guang looked at these hurried figures thoughtfully.
"Grand Bachelor Wang, Grand Bachelor Sima."
Sima Guang turned his head and saw that it was Huang Gui, the head of the Kaifeng Palace.
Huang Guidao: "Our magistrate invites you two to sit in the inner hall for a while."
Sima Guang and Wang Anshi looked at each other, and then followed Huang Gui to the inner hall.
.....
"What a good boy, how dare you cheat on me? I'll wait for you."
Wang Wenshan said a harsh word and got into the carriage with Chen Yu.
After getting on the carriage, Wang Wenshan asked: "Can the Kaifeng Mansion find evidence?"
Chen Yu said: "Teacher, please rest assured. If this matter is really investigated, the implications will be very wide. Those tea-eaters will never dare to talk nonsense. Besides, there is not a single falsehood in those papers at that time."
Wang Wenshan nodded and breathed heavily: "That's good. This time I will make sure that boy never recovers."
...
Inner hall.
"What do you two think?"
Mr. Lu looked at Wang Anshi and Sima Guang.
Everyone knew what was going on, even the emperor knew.
It had already passed, but I never thought that Zhang Fei would use this to attack Wang Wenshan.
This is very dangerous.
To check or not to check.
Wang Anshi chuckled and said: "Brother Hui, do you still need to ask us two for advice on investigating the case? Do you agree if we ask you to engage in malpractice for personal gain?"
Lu Gongzhu glanced at Wang Anshi angrily, as if to say, he is still not a friend. Why should I ask you for advice? Don't you have any idea in your mind?
He looked at Sima Guang again.
Sima Guang nodded and said: "Check it! But I guess I can't find anything."
Why did those officials leave in such a hurry? Wasn't it because they were destroying evidence?
In his opinion, no evidence could be found.
The key is that no one dares to admit it.
Lu Gongzhu frowned and said, "In that case, that kid may have some tricks up his sleeve."
Wang Anshi laughed and said: "Then why didn't Wang Sinong learn his lesson and insist on competing with Zhang San in the hall? He's really confused!"
Sima Guang felt uncomfortable listening to this, "Wang Jiefu, please speak clearly. What lessons have you learned?"
"Hey hey hey!"
Mr. Lu hurriedly said: "Don't argue, don't argue. My head still hurts now."
Sima Guang glanced at Lu Gongzhu and sighed: "If you want to blame, blame Wang Sinong. He brought the blame on himself and has no one to blame."
Wang Anshi immediately said: "I completely agree with what Jun Shi said."
Lu Gongzhu was stunned and said: "Do you two think that Wang Sinong has lost?"
Sima Guang shook his head and said: "That's not necessarily true, but at present, it seems that it is very detrimental to him."
.....
"Brother Zhang! Third brother Zhang!"
"pony?"
Zhang Fei, who was still pretending to be lame in a serious manner, suddenly heard someone calling him. He turned around and saw Ma Xiaoyi chasing after him. He smiled and said, "You're here to see me too."
Ma Xiaoyi nodded and said slightly dissatisfied: "I thought the third brother would ask me to testify in court."
Zhang Fei said in surprise: "Do you really want to go to court to testify?"
When he was recording the confession, he actually mentioned Ma Xiaoyi, but the Kaifeng Mansion just sent an official to ask Ma Xiaoyi. After all, it was already done like this, so why did he still need to ask? It was just a process.
Ma Xiaoyi nodded and said: "Of course I do. I like to watch the trial, especially to see the evildoers being severely punished. It's really satisfying. It's a pity that I never had the opportunity to go to court. Look at me, I'm wearing a whole new set of clothes today." of."
There was a lot of disappointment in his tone.
Zhang Fei couldn't help but smile when he saw that this boy was really wearing a brand new red robe. This boy was really a strange flower. Suddenly something occurred to him, "You have no share in this case, but I have to rely on you for the yamen case."
Ma Xiaoyi said happily: "Third brother, if you have any instructions, just tell me."
Zhang Fei pondered for a moment and said: "I need to get the detailed origins of the relevant people, including the bartender who delivered the wine and food that night."
Ma Xiaoyi asked curiously: "Brother Zhang, what's the use of asking these questions?"
Zhang Fei said: "In litigation, details determine success or failure."
"Details determine success or failure." Ma Xiaoyi rolled his eyes, "I remember it, is there anything else?"
Zhang Fei said: "That's all for now, wait until we understand clearly before making a decision."
"Okay, then I'll go find my brother now."
"now?"
"That's right! We just made an appointment to go to Piaoxiang Tower to listen to music tonight."
"Listen to music?"
Zhang Fei asked: "Is it the kind of touching singing?"
Ma Xiaoyi asked: "What is touch singing?"
Zhang Fei said: "The kind that is accompanied by singing girls?"
Ma Xiaoyi said: "Wherever I go to eat with my brother, there will always be singing girls to accompany me!"
What a great boy, you really enjoy it. Zhang Fei swallowed and whispered, "Is it safe? Will he be caught?"
Ma Xiaoyi was shocked and said: "This is not illegal, why would I be caught?"
Yes! This is legal. Zhang Fei slapped his forehead and said, "This lawsuit has made me confused."
Ma Xiaoyi asked: "Third brother, do you want to go?"
Zhang Fei glanced at him and said, "I... let's forget it, next time. Three of my eight-pack abs are still a little sore, so it's not convenient for me to do strenuous exercise."
"Okay, let's do it next time. How about this, when my brother wins the lawsuit, we let him treat us to a visit to the Alum Tower."
"Isn't Baifanlou a serious restaurant?"
"yes!"
"Are there also geishas?"
"Why not? Only serious restaurants have geishas. Those who are not serious are prostitutes."
"I see, okay, then it's settled."
"I'll leave first."
"Go ahead!"
As soon as Ma Xiaoyi left, Xu Zhiqian came up from behind, looked at Ma Xiaoyi's back, and asked Zhang Fei: "What is touch singing?"
Zhang Fei said: "Are you eavesdropping on our conversation?"
Xu Zhiqian said: "Who is eavesdropping? I just came over and heard what you said about touching and singing."
Zhang Fei said without changing his expression: "This is a code."
"signal?"
"That's right! It means observing in secret."
"But why do you want to exchange codes with Ma Xiaoyi?"
Zhang Fei glanced at Xu Zhiqian and thought, yes, I have to concentrate on dealing with Wang Sinong now. I don't know how long this lawsuit will take, but I really don't have time to take care of the affairs in the office, but that guy is not a kind person either. With a thought in his mind, he said: "I just want to talk to you about this, let's talk about it when we get back."
Xu Zhiqian nodded doubtfully.
Back at Xu Mansion, Zhang Fei informed Xu Zhiqian about the case between Cao Dongdong and Lin Fei.
Xu Zhiqian said: "You don't believe Cao Yanei's lies, do you? With his family background, how can he be threatened by a coach?"
Zhang Fei said: "According to what you said, with his family background, there is no need to ask me for help. We still have to investigate the truth. But, alas, I have to deal with Wang Sinong now, and I am more than willing but not powerful enough!"
Xu Zhiqian hesitated a little and said, "Do you believe me?"
Zhang Fei said hurriedly: "If you are willing to help, that would be great."
Xu Zhiqian was stunned, "Did you already plan to ask me to help?"
Zhang Fei smiled mischievously: "I didn't tell you, and you said I was secretive and hiding it from you. If I checked it myself, you would be worried, and I might cause sabotage in the middle. Why don't you check it yourself."
Xu Zhiqian did not refute, but asked: "What if it is found out that Cao Yameni lied?"
Zhang Fei said: "It's up to you."
Xu Zhiqian thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay! I'll help you."
Zhang Fei said: "I will tell Xiao Ma then that you are responsible for contacting him."
Xu Zhiqian nodded and said, "You haven't finished handling your own affairs yet. Fortunately, you still have the energy to help Yanei and the others."
She also really admired Zhang Fei's big heart. This lawsuit was getting more and more serious. In the eyes of most people, it was extremely dangerous.
Without waiting for Zhang Fei's answer, she continued: "But I don't think that Fan Li will be willing to testify. Although he agrees to cooperate with you, he will not offend the ministers of the DPRK for you."
Zhang Fei was stunned: "Who said Fan Li would be allowed to come out to testify?"
Xu Zhiqian said: "Without Fan Li's testimony, I'm afraid there won't be any evidence to prove that Wang Sinong was behind this."
"It doesn't matter." Zhang Fei shrugged.
"It doesn't matter?"
Xu Zhiqian looked at Zhang Fei without knowing why.
Zhang Fei smiled and nodded: "Even if Fan Li is willing to come forward to testify, I will not agree. I want to retaliate against Wang Wenshan, not to let him get a fair trial. It would be too easy for him. It is nothing to hurt others." A great sin.”
Xu Zhiqian became more confused the more she listened.
Zhang Fei did not explain, and asked again: "How long do you think it will take for the Kaifeng Mansion to ask for the confessions of the people involved?"
Xu Zhiqian pondered for a moment and said: "This matter involves dozens of people. Even if the Kaifeng Mansion goes all out, it will take at least half a month. If no one can be found for a while, it may take even longer."
Zhang Fei nodded slightly, "Okay, let's go there again in seven days."
Xu Zhiqian asked in astonishment: "What are you going to do?"
Zhang Fei said: "Provide new clues."
...
The Kaifeng Mansion really went all out, and the five courts under it worked together. However, due to the large and complex number of people involved, it had already been seven days before the confessions of the Erbi people who submitted the petition papers were finally obtained.
At this time, the weather had already turned cold, which also brought some obstacles to the investigation work.
Li Kai wore a thick cloak and came to the house. He squatted next to the brazier and warmed his hands.
Lu Gongzhu asked: "How is your question?"
Li Kaidao: "It's almost as expected. Those people in Erbi said that they saw Zhang San using the lawsuit to obtain 500 yuan in compensation, so they also planned to imitate Zhang San. At that time, many people also wanted to imitate Li Si. Both parties It was an instant hit!”
Mr. Lu nodded slightly.
Li Kai added: "Next, we have to go find those who complained and find out whether the complaint is true or false. This is really life-threatening!"
Lu Gongzhu sighed: "What can we do? If we don't find it, Zhang San will definitely sue our officials to protect each other."
Li Kai hates it, "This brat...!"
Boom, boom, boom!
"Report to the magistrate, Zhang Fei asks for an audience."
It really means Cao Cao Cao Cao has arrived.
Li Kai's hair immediately stood up in anger.
There was no emotion on Mr. Lu's face, he was obviously prepared, "Bring him in."
After a while, Zhang Fei came to the house.
"Zhang Fei, a small citizen, has met Magistrate Lu and Judge Li Tong."
"What's the matter with you?"
Mr. Lu asked in a calm tone.
Zhang Fei said: "Xiao Min suddenly thought of a clue and came here to inform Magistrate Lu."
Mr. Lu asked: "What clue?"
Zhang Fei said: "I remember that Xiaomin once told Magistrate Lu that Wang Sinong used threats and inducements to Xiaomin, but Xiaomin only said threats and forgot about the benefits and inducements last time. This is really wrong."
Li Kai laughed angrily, "You are such an Erbi person. You are really powerful. With just one idiom, you still get two points to sue. The loss is to help you fight the lawsuit. If you are helping others to fight, you are not allowed to receive two points." money?"
Zhang Fei exclaimed: "Li Tongpan, you have to believe me. I really forgot. This is the first time that this young man has to go to court with an official, and he is very nervous."
How could Li Kai believe this nonsense?
Mr. Lu frowned and said, "Don't talk nonsense. What is going on?"
Zhang Fei said hurriedly: "Wang Sinong also said at that time that his nephew Chen Yuteng had a very close relationship with the magistrate of Xiangfu County. If the common people did not help Li Si, he would ask Chen Yuteng to help the common people find a bookkeeper in Xiangfu County. Errand."
"That's unreasonable!"
Li Kai slammed the table angrily, "Are you suing Wang Sinong, or are you trying to punish our Kaifeng Mansion?"
At present, this case has not been investigated, and the whole Xiangfu County has been exposed, so it is hard to survive this New Year!
Zhang Fei said with an innocent look on his face: "Xiaomin is just providing clues as to why Li Tongpuan is so angry."
Li Kai immediately said: "If Wang Sinong really wants to find a job for you, does he still need to go to Xiangfu County?"
Zhang Fei said: "Xiaomin doesn't know. Maybe Wang Sinong thought this would be more concealed, but Xiaomin didn't agree to him. Xiaomin will never participate in this kind of illegal thing of selling one's official position."
It was said with great righteousness.
Selling an official position to get a title? How dare you say that! Li Kai gritted his teeth and said, "Then do you have any evidence?"
Zhang Fei said: "Although the people have no conclusive evidence for the time being, when Li Si went to Xiangfu County to file a complaint, Xiangfu County only took less than half a day to close the case. Not only did Li Si get beaten up, but even Doesn’t Li Tongpuan think it’s strange that there is a lack of confession from this important witness Zeng?”
"What's this...?"
When Li Kai was about to speak, Mr. Lu raised his hand to stop him and said to Zhang Fei: "It seems you are really willing to go all out."
Li Kai suddenly realized that there was something really fishy here. If Zeng came out to give a confession, her confession would be very critical. Judging from the results, this was definitely an oversight on the part of Xiangfu County.
The key was that Li Kaixian found out, but the two parties had almost reached a settlement at that time and did not continue to pursue it.
We really can't say that Zhang Fei is talking nonsense.
Zhang Fei said with a simple face: "I don't know why the prefect said this."
Mr. Lu nodded and said, "I know, do you have anything else?"
Zhang Fei said: "There are none for the time being. If I think of other clues, I will definitely come and inform the prefect as soon as possible."
temporary....... Li Kai almost fainted.
Lu Gong said: "You should go back first."
"Xiao Min, please retire."
After Zhang Fei left, Li Kai couldn't help but sigh: "This kid is really a devil!"
Lu Gong said: "Therefore, we must be fast and we can't let him delay us any longer."
By now, he also understood what Zhang Fei had planned.
Zhang Fei is just a political amateur and has nothing to attack, but Wang Wenshan is different. He is an old fox in the world.
Sooner or later the problem will be discovered.
After saying that, Mr. Lu looked at Li Kai again.
Li Kai shook his head and said: "I won't go, let Huang Gui go."
