Someone once said: When the profit reaches 10%, some people are ready to take action; when the profit reaches 50%, some people dare to take risks; when the profit reaches 100%, they dare to trample all laws in the world; and when the profit reaches 300%, some people dare to take risks. He was not even afraid of going to the gallows.

These words are used to describe capitalists.

But it actually applies more to politicians.

In this game, the interests involved are really enough to make them do unscrupulous and inhumane things.

...

Zhang Fei came to the Northern Song Dynasty alone, and there were not many people he cared about, but Fang Yun was definitely the most important one. If he hadn't filed a lawsuit for Fang Yun, Zhang Fei might not have come to the capital. At the beginning of the year, Zhang Feidu also asked Xu Zun to find connections and sent some money to Fang Yun.

But at this critical moment, he neglected Fang Yun. He never expected that the other party would target a village woman in Dengzhou.

This really caught him off guard.

It really hit him in the upper seven inches.

After Xu Zun learned about this, he hurried home.

"This is really unreasonable!"

After Xu Zun read the letter, he was immediately furious: "How could they use such despicable tactics."

Xu Zhiqian asked hurriedly: "Dad, didn't you have someone to take care of Ayun before? Can you..."

Xu Zun glanced at his daughter and sighed, "I'm just trying to keep an eye on her to prevent her from being bullied, but I'm afraid it's impossible to prevent this kind of behavior."

Who would have thought that someone would kidnap a village woman like Fang Yun? The security level must not have reached that level.

At most, it is to prevent the neighbors from bullying Fang Yun.

Zhang Fei and Xu Zhiqian looked at each other with despair in their eyes.

This is their last hope.

Xu Zun picked up the letter and read it again, wondering: "This news just broke out a few days ago. Even if they rush to Dengzhou immediately, it will be difficult to make the round trip. Could it be intentional?" To scare you?"

Xu Zhiqian said: "My daughter and Zhang San have already discussed this. Fang Yun is just an ordinary village woman. If there is no one to protect Fang Yun all the time, then they only need to send someone to do it, and they will be sure." , it’s too late for us to send people there now.”

Maybe they are trying to scare people, but the question is whether you dare to bet, because they are definitely capable of kidnapping Fang Yun, and it is very easy. Those who want to stop Wang Anshi's reform are definitely not ordinary officials.

"It's all my fault! I didn't take Fang Yun into consideration, what a f*ck."

Zhang Fei banged the table with great annoyance.

Xu Zun glanced at him and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, since they have something to ask for, they won't hurt Fang Yun for the time being."

Zhang Fei sighed: "I'm not worried about this for the time being. After all, Fang Yun is alive and valuable. I just hate that I didn't think of this in advance. The other party was willing to bribe me with ten thousand taels before, and the cost of kidnapping Fang Yun might even be one thousand taels." Qian Guan won’t be needed, I should have thought of this at the time.”

"Could this be the same group of people?" But as he spoke, Xu Zun shook his head: "There are too many people's interests involved in this, I'm afraid it's not that easy to investigate!"

He looked anxious again and said: "The court will be held tomorrow, and according to what this letter says, you are asked to deliberately lose this lawsuit, not to mention delaying the trial. Even if the verdict is not announced tomorrow, Fang Yun may be in danger." .”

Xu Zhiqian said in frustration: "We talked about this just now. If we want to save Fang Yun, the only way is to hide it from Uncle Wang and deliberately lose the lawsuit. But if we do this... ...."

"Yes! This is so unfair to Wang Jiefu."

Xu Zun sighed.

Xu Zhiqian asked: "Dad, if we lose this lawsuit, will Uncle Wang never have a chance again?"

Xu Zun pondered for a while, "You can't say that. After all, this is just a lawsuit, and Wang Jiefu has not made an intolerable mistake. Even if he loses, the officials will definitely still trust Wang Jiefu. Wang Jiefu will still be able to make a comeback by then, but It’s going to be difficult to regain control of people’s hearts!”

Zhang Fei was startled, "Yes! If you lose, you lose. This is just a lawsuit after all, so what does it matter?"

Xu Zun said hurriedly: "You can't say that, the consequences..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Fei suddenly stood up and said, "My dear friend, can you arrange for me to meet Grand Scholar Wang secretly?"

Xu Zun asked: "What do you want to do?"

Zhang Fei said: "I am going to persuade Academician Wang to give up this lawsuit."

Xu Zhiqian stood up anxiously: "Didn't we discuss it just now? It is impossible for Uncle Wang to agree. Doing so will harm Fang Yun."

Zhang Fei said: "I have a way to make him agree."

"any solution?"

Xu Zhiqian asked.

Zhang Fei said: "He is more hooligan than them."

...

The next morning.

A lawsuit that attracts the attention of civil and military officials in the court is about to begin in the political hall.

But I saw that the spacious lobby was full of people. Not only the civil and military officials of the court, but also most of the royal relatives came to watch the trial.

Because this lawsuit is so critical, it is no exaggeration to say that it involves the interests of everyone in the world.

If this sword can directly knock Wang Anshi off his horse, then everything will be fine and everyone will celebrate!

After Zhang Fei entered the lobby, the lobby instantly became quiet, and soon there were whispers again.

"Strange? Why is Zhang San dressed like this today?"

"Why isn't he wearing a green shirt?"

"There's no hat on or a pen on."

...

I saw that Zhang Fei was just as usual today, with a soft scarf on his head and a simple gray gown, instead of wearing a coquettish outfit whenever he went to court as before.

"The common people have seen the rich man."

Arriving in the middle, Zhang Fei bowed to Fu Bi, who was sitting in the seat, and then bowed to Qian Yi next to him.

Qian Yi just nodded slightly. Although he was no longer the censor, he was an elder after all.

"No gift!"

Fu Bi saw that Zhang Fei had two panda eyes and looked a little haggard, so he asked: "Zhang San, are you okay?"

Zhang Fei was startled and said hurriedly: "Thank you, Mr. Fu, for your concern. Everything is fine for me. I'm just thinking that Mr. Fu is here to interrogate me today, so I feel nervous and didn't sleep well."

Fu Bi smiled slightly, but he didn't believe it, and said, "I heard that you like to sit and litigate, would you like to arrange tables and chairs for you?"

In order to be fair, he tried his best to meet Zhang Fei's requirements. Whatever your habits are, I will make arrangements for you.

Zhang Fei said: "Thank you, Mr. Fu, for your kindness. I don't need it today."

Fu Bi was stunned for a moment and looked at Qian Yi again.

Qian Yi also shook his head and said, "I don't need it either."

...

Sima Guang, who was sitting aside, suddenly frowned and said, "This is wrong!"

Wen Yanbo beside him also nodded slightly and said, "Yes! Why doesn't he wear that green gown today?"

"Not only that."

Sima Guang said: "In the previous lawsuits, he usually brought Xu Zhiqian with him, but today Xu Zhiqian did not come, and the rich man did not say that he was not allowed to bring Xu Zhiqian, and he was empty-handed and had nothing. bring."

Wen Yanbo glanced at Zhang Fei and said, "Is it possible that he has a chance to win?"

Sima Guang frowned and said, "Even if he is sure of winning, given his character, he will still be fully prepared. This lawsuit is as important as the place. If you make more preparations, you will never go wrong."

As he said this, he glanced at Wang Anshi opposite him and saw that Wang Anshi was very relaxed. He thought to himself, am I worrying too much?

Fu Bi actually saw that something was not right with Zhang Fei, but if you ask him, he also knew how to flatter him, so he didn't care about that much, and immediately started the trial.

Bang.

The hall fell silent instantly.

Everyone held their breath.

No one cares about what Zhang Fei is wearing anymore.

Since it was Qian Yi who complained, Fu Bi naturally asked Qian Yi first.

Qian Yi is indeed worthy of being a censor. He is catchy and eloquent, quoting scriptures and discussing ancient and modern times.

The scholar-officials next to him were shaking their heads as they listened, immersed in it.

This is a lawsuit!

How lofty.

In comparison, Zhang Feina is simply vulgar. He only knows how to recite the words intermittently and has no skills at all.

This thought is enough for most of the incense stick.

After finishing reciting, Fu Bi suddenly looked at Zhang Fei. Seeing that this guy was concentrating with his eyes closed, he didn't dare to neglect him. This guy often succeeds by surprise, and asked: "Zhang San, what do you have to say?"

Zhang Fei opened his eyes and was silent for a long time before saying, "I have nothing to say."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar.

People like Wang Anshi, Sima Guang and others couldn't help but stand up directly.

"No...nothing to say?"

Fu Bi was dumbfounded and asked, "You are here to defend the establishment of the Three Ordinance Departments. How come you have nothing to say?"

Zhang Fei replied: "What Mr. Qian said is so reasonable that the common people don't know how to refute it. Maybe the establishment of the three regulations departments did violate the laws of our ancestors."

Qian Yi looked at him in astonishment. Although he had said most of the incense, it was only an opening statement, tentative, and his core arguments had not yet been presented!

This is unbearable.

Unlikely!

Fu Bi first glanced at Wang Anshi, and then said to Zhang Fei: "Zhang San, come here and talk."

Zhang Fei walked over.

Fu Bi leaned forward and reprimanded in a low voice: "You see clearly, this is the political hall, not the lobby of your home. Don't be pretentious here."

Zhang Fei replied: "In the court, Xiaomin never makes excuses, and Xiaomin is not a person who is good at sophistry. Xiaomin is used to discussing things as they happen. Regarding the laws of the ancestors, Xiaomin also specially debated this, and now What the other party said makes sense, so of course I have to admit it."

Fu Bi frowned and said, "If you do this again, I will directly sentence you to lose."

Zhang Fei nodded and said: "Xiaomin is convinced that he lost."

"you...!"

Fu Bi was stunned for a moment.

what happened?

He thought for a moment and suddenly called Wang Anshi, Sima Guang, and Wen Yanbo over.

What happened?

Liu Shu and others were all confused, and all of them pricked up their ears.

Sima Guang's steps were faster than Wang Anshi's. With a whoosh, he came to Fu Bi, and then asked Zhang Fei: "Zhang San, what are you doing?"

Zhang Fei was silent.

At this time, Wang Anshi also came over.

Fu Bi said to Wang Anshi again: "Wang Jiefu, you can ask him yourself."

Wang Anshi asked Zhang Fei: "What's going on?"

Zhang Fei said: "I'm sorry to disappoint Grand Scholar Wang."

Wang Anshi stared at him for a long time, then suddenly glanced at Sima Guang and Wen Yanbo, and then said to Fu Bi: "Fu Gong, I am willing to admit defeat."

"Wait a minute!"

Wang Anshi's look made Sima Guang feel humiliated. I didn't play tricks and said: "If we don't explain this matter clearly first, we can't judge it. Otherwise, it will be difficult to convince the public."

Wen Yanbo also nodded: "The reason why we are fighting this lawsuit is to seek fairness. This is meaningless."

Zhang Fei said: "Anyway, I don't know how to refute it. Let's just discuss the matter. The establishment of three regulations departments does violate the laws of our ancestors."

Fu Bi pondered for a moment and then looked at Wang Anshi: "Wang Jiefu, I can give you another chance. If you are in trouble, I can postpone the trial again. Justice comes first."

Wang Anshi said: "No need, if you lose, you lose."

"The rich man cannot be judged."

Sima Guang immediately said: "This is unfair at all."

Wang Anshi said: "It's okay not to judge. Anyway, if they want to quarrel from now on, they will come to you to quarrel, but don't come to me."

Sima Guang said excitedly: "Wang Jiefu, are you crazy?"

Wang Anshi said: "I am very sober."

Sima Guang looked at Zhang Fei again and said, "Zhang San, what happened?"

Zhang Fei said: "Thank you, Grand Master Sima, for your concern. I really can't find a reason to refute."

"you...."

Sima Guang was so anxious that his beard stood up.

He knew what must have happened, which was exactly why he was filing this lawsuit, he wanted to resolve the issue fairly.

If you do this, it will become even worse.

Fu Bi thought so too, but he had nothing to do. They all said so and it was impossible not to judge. Although they cared about fairness, many people only cared about victory or defeat. Wang Anshi had already admitted defeat. If he did not judge, others would be judged. He could only trouble them, and there was no reason to trouble Wang Anshi anymore.

Fu Bi cannot bear this responsibility!

He sighed, "Okay! You go back first."

Sima Guang became angry, waved his sleeves, and left angrily.

Fu Bi was shocked and announced in public that the establishment of three regulations departments violated the laws of his ancestors.
