"Oh! It turns out that I can also judge cases!"
Lu Chapo stood up, still unfinished, and had already thought about how to brag at the stall tomorrow.
It’s really a full sense of participation!
The butcher said: "You and the old lady are still addicted."
Lu Chapo hummed: "So what, are you in charge? I will come to see the case next time. Maybe the little president will let me come in to help. Besides, didn't you come in too?" "
"I thought it was too crowded outside. It's so comfortable to sit here."
"I finally understand why there is such a trial."
Qin Zhongshou stood up and hummed softly.
Cao Dongdong asked hurriedly: "What do you think Uncle Qin said?"
Qin Zhongshou said: "He is interrogating like this just because he wants to be in the limelight."
"Yeah!"
Cao Dongdong nodded repeatedly when he heard this, "Zhang San loves to be in the spotlight. In the whole world, only this office can steal this limelight from him."
Qin Zhongshou asked: "What's the clever plan in the yamen?"
"The answer is simple, just pay him."
".!"
This case has been tried before, and it was tried in court, and there were people observing the trial, but the people's reaction was not as good as it is now, and it was controversial, not one-sided.
The change is that the trial in the imperial court is very considerate of the feelings of the spectators, allowing the spectators to know the ins and outs of the entire case so much that they are immersed in it, which is why there is such long-lasting applause and cheers.
They are no longer spectators, but participants.
"It's really disgusting. When he was Erbi, he stole all the limelight. No one noticed the presiding judge. But now that he is the president of the court, he wants to steal the limelight. It's really unreasonable."
The prosecutor, Chen Qi, was packing up the paperwork. Hearing the cheers from behind, she became more and more angry as she thought about it, and said angrily.
Another prosecutor, Wang Shen, snorted: "Isn't that right? If he and others felt that the charge of manslaughter was reluctant, he should have said it when we prosecuted him. Saying this in court would clearly embarrass our procuratorate. "
These prosecutors felt very unhappy, and they felt that they had been tricked by Zhang Fei.
Su Zhe glanced at them and said, "Everyone's words make sense. You should check the regulations of the Public Prosecution and Procuratorate Law. If there is any violation of regulations by the imperial court, we can also sue the imperial court."
".?"
"That's not necessary."
"This case has been settled, so don't add any more complications."
Su Zhe said: "For our procuratorate, it is not about success or failure, but about justice."
"This president of the court may seem young, but he is so considerate and considerate. It's rare, rare!"
"Yes! What he just said is exactly what I am worried about. Even if Mrs. Wu Zhang has extenuating circumstances, if she is found not guilty, I am afraid there will be endless troubles. As the presiding judge, I should also consider this. The impact of the verdict.”
"Well, this verdict is really convincing."
Zhuo Qun looked at the group of white-haired old men in front of him and praised the verdict. He couldn't help but said to Cai Yanqing who was standing aside: "Prefect, it seems that what is said in the letter is true. That boy is really capable."
Cai Yanqing smiled and nodded: "Yes! His ultimate goal is to commute Wu Zhang's sentence, but if he sentenced him directly, I'm afraid it would attract criticism. But now, people remember him for his selflessness, fairness and strictness. .”
Zhuo Qun suddenly realized, "Yes, yes, the prosecutor's office charged him with manslaughter, and Lu Chapo and others thought he was not guilty, but in the end he was convicted of homicide. This charge is the most serious, but the punishment is even lighter." The punishment for manslaughter is such that the common people outside and the old masters inside are convinced, which is really winning people's hearts."
I couldn't help but give Zhang Fei a thumbs up in my heart.
Initially, the difficulty in this case was how to judge the case. It seemed that no matter how the case was judged, it was wrong.
But after several twists and turns, Zhang Fei's decision was just right, and not many people questioned it.
The reason is that Zhang Fei ultimately increased Wu Zhang's sentence instead of reducing it.
Cai Yanqing asked again: "What do you think of the way the public prosecutors and courts handle cases?"
Zhuo Qun pondered for a while and said: "As a lower official, this method is in line with the laws of our ancestors. The procuratorate and the police station each perform their own duties. It can indeed better prevent unjust, false and wrong cases, but it cannot avoid its disadvantages. . To try a case like this requires sufficient evidence and a very fair trial. Otherwise, it will be difficult to convict. If you encounter a complicated case, how long will it take?"
In the past, when the prefect tried a case, the prefect could use various tricks to find the real culprit. In this way, the president did not have many tricks to play. He had to produce enough evidence, which was bound to be more troublesome.
The ancestral method of the Song Dynasty can indeed avoid many problems, but at the same time it can also breed disasters of three redundancies, and the efficiency is also a mess.
If you inherit its advantages, you will inevitably inherit its shortcomings as well.
Cai Yanqing frowned slightly and said, "But this requires financial support!"
Zhuo Qun said: "It seems that the expenditures of the public security organs and law enforcement agencies belong to the local finance, so we are not responsible."
Cai Yanqing thought for a while and said: "We will have to talk to them about this matter then. We, Hezhong Mansion, will have to bear the finances of the Northwest Army."
God is fair. When you want a more perfect result, you have to spend more time and money.
Lakeside.
"lady!"
"Husband!"
Wu Zhang, who had just been released, looked up at Wu Lei, who was running towards her. He took the step he couldn't take just now, but took it back.
"lady!"
Wu Lei, who ran over, took the initiative to take Wu Zhang's hand and choked with sobs: "I can't help you."
"No, no, I'm sorry for you. I shouldn't have hidden it from you."
The husband and wife looked at each other guiltily. They had many things to say but didn't know how to speak. In the end, they hugged each other and cried.
In fact, both of them were suffering. Wu Lei actually knew his wife's difficulties, but on the other side was his mother. He could only cry, but he could not stand up and say a fair word for his wife.
Wu Zhang also knew Wu Lei's character, and felt guilty for Wu Lei in her heart.
On the corridor not far away, Zhang Fei, Xu Zhiqian, Gao Wenyin, and Xiao Tao looked at the couple holding each other's arms and crying from a distance, and couldn't help but sigh again.
Gao Wenyin sighed quietly: "Although the couple has been reunited, the family, which was already impoverished, encountered such a change, which will only make things worse."
With that said, she turned to Zhang Fei, "Sanlang, how about we secretly send some money to them to help them get through the current difficulties for the time being."
Zhang Fei frowned slightly, looking a little tangled.
If the couple cannot survive this difficulty, the publicity effect of this judgment will be greatly reduced. But if help is given, will it be given in the future?
In today's society, there are many people who are suffering more than them!
"no need!"
Xu Zhiqian said suddenly.
Zhang Fei couldn't help but look at Xu Zhiqian in surprise, "Zhiqian, what did you say?"
Xu Zhiqian said: "I said it's not necessary!"
Zhang Fei was surprised: "Why?"
Xu Zhiqian said: "Because someone will give them money then."
Gao Wenyin hurriedly asked: "Who?"
"Those country squires and gentry."
Xu Zhiqian said: "Everyone is aware of this case, and most people are very sympathetic to the couple. Someone will definitely lend a helping hand to them to gain fame."
Suddenly I heard someone behind me laughing and saying, "Wonderful! Wonderful! Mrs. Zhang is really extremely smart, and she is not inferior to women."
Everyone looked back and saw Su Che, Cai Jing, Fu Shichun and others walking over.
Xu Zhiqian was embarrassed, "Thank you, Mr. Su Xiao, but I have seen many such things before."
Why do those country squires and gentry maintain their reputation in the local area? Isn't it just through this kind of thing? Who knows if Xu Zhiqian helps others secretly.
But at this moment, if you go to give the Wu family a little help, the news will spread throughout the city the next day. As long as the squires in Guixiang are not stupid, they will never miss this opportunity.
Xu Zhiqian has been philanthropic since she was a child. She has seen a lot of such things. She can't speak of any wisdom, just speaking from experience.
When Gao Wenyin saw Su Che and the others coming, he took Xiao Tao and the others away with great sense.
Zhang Fei invited them to the side hall.
"Prosecutor Su won't blame me, right?"
Zhang Fei asked with a smile.
"Where do you start talking about this?"
Su Che chuckled: "Litigation is the responsibility of our Procuratorate, and judgment is the responsibility of your Imperial Court. There is no rule that the Imperial Court must obey the judgment of our Procuratorate."
Strictly speaking, Zhang Fei did not join them. The imperial court accepted the prosecution from the procuratorate, which only meant that the crime was recognized at that time. The specific verdict will not be known until after the trial.
Although there was a tacit understanding between the two parties in this case, it was completely compliant.
But everyone knows that Zhang Fei has already thought about how to judge, otherwise, with his memory, it would be impossible to remember those regulations.
Zhang Fei chuckled: "But other people in the procuratorate may not think so."
Su Che smiled and said nothing.
But he really didn't care, on the contrary, he was very happy, because they had a relationship of mutual supervision, there was no need to be embarrassed, everyone was in business.
Ye Zuqia was quite dissatisfied and said: "Teacher, why didn't you ask our opinion before you made the decision?"
There are five people sitting on it, but you have all the limelight, and they have no sense of participation.
Zhang Fei immediately asked: "What do you think?"
Ye Zuqia was stunned for a moment, with an awkward smile on his face, "What the students mean is that menial tasks such as retrieving regulations can be left to the students. Teachers don't like to do such things anyway."
Zhang Fei asked again: "Then what regulations will you search for and judge?"
".!"
"Why are you silent?"
Zhang Fei asked seriously.
"Students don't know."
The four of them lowered their heads at the same time, regretting in their hearts why they kept talking so much.
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Don't say you don't know. In fact, I don't have a correct answer. Even if we find out the truth, we can actually uphold Magistrate Cai's judgment. This is not a wrong judgment. Because it is difficult to verify, a person's heart What exactly was she thinking? We currently judge Wu Zhang's inner thoughts based on the confessions of her neighbors. However, there is no evidence to directly prove whether Wu Zhang wanted her mother to die or not.
Since no matter how we judge, it is not wrong, or it can be said that it is not right, and at the same time, this is not a special case, but a widespread problem, then we must seriously consider what impact our judgment will have on the entire society. Impact. "
Ye Zuqia and others nodded slightly.
Zhang Fei asked abruptly: "Then the question arises, can we think it through?"
Cai Jing said: "That's why the teacher selected those common people to help the teacher make a judgment."
Zhang Fei nodded, and then said: "I also plan to establish this kind of system to specifically try some cases that are difficult to decide."
Su Che said in surprise: "How can this be done?"
