As soon as Emperor Chrysostom saw it, the lawsuit immediately entered the trial process.
However, the opposition inside and outside the government has become louder and louder.
They hoped that the emperor could take back his life.
Now in the court, facing Zhang Fei, no matter whether they are officials or scholars, they have completely lost confidence.
When I heard that a lawsuit was really going to be filed, my first reaction was that it was over.
Completely disregarding Fan Chunren's feelings.
But it is a pity that even the defendants headed by Su Shi are willing to go to court to fight Zhang Fei.
This one is willing to fight and endure.
There is nothing anyone can do.
I can only ask the Buddha to bless me.
Xiangguo Temple.
I saw a row of devout scholars kneeling in front of the Buddha statue in the main hall.
"Buddha, that Zhang San is a monster, please Buddha, please accept that monster!"
"Please bless the Buddha. Fan Sijian and the others must win this time! Evil cannot defeat good, and evil cannot defeat good."
Yundao Temple.
I saw a Taoist priest, holding a wooden sword in his right hand, a talisman in his left hand, stepping on the magic circle, chanting: "Xuanzong of heaven and earth, decrees that demons will be destroyed. Be as urgent as a law."
A circle of scholars stood aside, with clenched fists and tears in their eyes.
The divine thunder from heaven will strike down that evildoer!
Zhang family.
"Sanlang, just now someone on horseback threw a letter in front of the door, and then ran away. I didn't catch up."
Niu Beiqing angrily came to the hall holding a letter and said to Zhang Fei: "How about we set up a tripwire in front of the door to ensure that none of them can escape."
"No."
Zhang Fei smiled slightly and stretched out his hand again, "Bring me the letter."
Niu Beiqing handed the letter to Zhang Fei and said with embarrassment: "Sanlang, when I stared at it carefully, they didn't come. I just went on a mission for a while, and they came. I guess they have been sending
People are staring at us.”
"okay."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "It's not your fault. Your responsibility is to ensure that they don't throw torches in. They can just throw the letters away."
Niu Beiqing patted his chest and said, "I promise, this is the last letter, and I will never let them succeed again."
Zhang Fei smiled and nodded.
After Niu Beiqing stepped back, Zhang Fei opened the letter. Xu Zhiqian beside him turned her head and asked, "What's written on it?"
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "What else could it be, but to accuse me of repaying kindness with hatred, being despicable and shameless."
Xu Zhiqian sighed quietly: "The morning has not even passed yet, and it is already the fourth letter. It seems that we have really aroused public outrage this time."
Zhang Fei chuckled and said: "But this also shows that they actually have no confidence. They can only use this kind of off-the-beaten-track tactics to disturb our minds. This is a recognition of my strength."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Suddenly hearing a burst of crying, Zhang Fei and Xu Zhiqian turned their heads and saw Xiao Tao walking in crying, holding a vegetable basket in one hand and wiping tears with the other.
"Xiao Tao, what's wrong?"
Gao Wenyin walked quickly from the side.
Xiaotao sobbed: "Madam, I did not betray the third brother."
Zhang Fei and Xu Zhiqian also walked out of the hall.
"Xiao Tao, what's going on?"
"Third brother, when I was selling vegetables, a few people suddenly surrounded me and gave me a piece of silver, asking me to steal the copy prepared by third brother. I was very scared at the time, so I agreed to them, but
I.I won’t do that.”
"This is really unreasonable."
Xu Zhiqian said angrily: "They actually did such a despicable thing."
Gao Wenyin also said uneasily: "Sanlang, what should we do now?"
Zhang Fei smiled bitterly and said: "What else can we do? Let's not go out for the time being."
This time Zhang Fei really stood on the opposite side of all scholars. Putting aside Song Minqiu and Su Shi's reputation, if he were to win, perhaps everyone would not be able to happily discuss current affairs as before.
This is related to the rights and interests of every reader.
But no one believed that Fan Chunren and the others could win.
They could only try every means to harass Zhang Fei.
During the day, he threw letters and scolded Zhang Fei, and at night, he secretly went to play gongs and drums near Zhang's house.
This really made Zhang Fei complain endlessly.
I can only catch up on some sleep at noon.
finally!
Finally the trial day arrived.
As usual, the front door of Zhang's house was crowded with people.
They are not here to cheer, but to curse.
However, after waiting for a long time, the door did not open, which made the excited scholar really feel panicked.
Kaifeng Mansion.
In Zhao Pian's lounge, there were waves of shouts.
I saw Zhang Fei lying on the collapse and sleeping soundly. It turned out that Wang Anshi had received news that thousands of scholars would block Zhang Fei at the door today. He was also worried that the situation would get out of control, so he arranged for someone to send him quietly overnight.
Come to Kaifeng Mansion to rest.
There was a creak and the door opened.
Zhang Fei opened his eyes slightly and saw a graceful figure coming into view, "Madam."
The person who came was none other than Gao Wenyin. Now in terms of life, Zhang Fei really cannot do without Gao Wenyin.
Gao Wenyin came to the window and whispered: "Sanlang, it's time to get up."
"Um."
Zhang Fei sat up and rubbed his eyes, "It seems like I haven't slept so peacefully for a long time."
When Gao Wenyin saw this, he couldn't help but sigh: "Sanlang, why are you doing this?"
Zhang Fei glanced at her and said with a smile: "Isn't life just about bitterness first and then sweetness?"
Under Gao Wenyin's service, Zhang Fei washed up, put on his shirt embroidered with an eagle, and went out.
Wang Anshi had already been sitting in a side room waiting for him.
“In good spirits.”
When Wang Anshi saw Zhang Fei, he couldn't help but smile.
Zhang Fei smiled bitterly and said, "I'm really risking my life in a lawsuit this time!"
Wang Anshi joked: "Isn't it before?"
Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "So I'm used to it."
Wang Anshi suddenly sighed: "I have to admit that I thought this matter too simply, and it almost led to a catastrophe!"
The behavior of those people really made him feel frightened.
If he really stepped on it, he might really fall into it.
Judging from the facts, almost no one supports him.
This shows how seriously everyone takes this statement.
Zhang Fei glanced at Wang Anshi, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Master Wang, this is just a lawsuit. When the time comes, new laws will be implemented."
When he mentioned the new law, Wang Anshi's eyes immediately became firm, "If the reform was so simple, then it wouldn't be my turn to do it, Wang Anshi."
Zhang Fei smiled and nodded and said no more.
Wang Anshi added: "It is said that Su Ziyou is acting as Fan Chunren's assistant this time. None of the Su brothers are mediocre. You have to be careful."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "There is no way I can lose."
Wang Anshi likes this kind of confident person.
At this time, Xu Zhiqian also arrived.
After all, she is a woman, but she did not come to Kaifeng Mansion to rest with Zhang Fei.
The young couple came to the front yard together and saw that the front yard was already crowded with people, but it was very quiet. Everyone looked numb and their eyes were dull, as if they were about to go to the execution ground. Unlike before, everyone was still discussing.
A few sentences.
This is already a loss.
Many people even think that Kaifeng Mansion is an ominous place.
Fan Chunren looked relaxed. When he saw Zhang Fei coming, he walked over and said, "Zhang San, what they did is definitely not what we wanted. I hope they didn't affect you."
Xu Zhiqian hummed and said: "How can it not affect it?"
When Fan Chunren heard this, he couldn't help but look guilty, "Actually, I was already stopping them, but..."
Zhang Fei chuckled and said: "Fan Sijian doesn't need to feel guilty. In fact, I am very worried about Fan Sijian."
Fan Chunren asked in astonishment: "What are you worried about me for?"
Zhang Fei said: "If Fan Sijian can't win in this way, wouldn't it be very despairing?"
Fan Chunren was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly: "First of all, I am absolutely sure that I can beat you this time. Secondly, even if I lose, I won't feel despair. You can't always win.
"
Zhang Fei smiled and nodded: "Then I'll be relieved."
Fan Chunren smiled and said: "I am relieved now."
After talking for a while, both parties went to one side and prepared to go to the hall.
After a while, the gate of Kaifeng Mansion slowly opened, and it was immediately filled with scholars.
The common people did not care about this lawsuit at all, and indeed it did not have much direct relationship with them. Those who wanted to join in the fun gave up after seeing so many scholars.
Zhao Pian, dressed in official uniform, came to the stage in high spirits and sat down, giving a majestic slap in the face.
Both sides immediately stood up and stood silently.
The sound of "mighty" is strong and powerful.
When Zhang Fei and Xu Zhiqian came out of the corridor on the right, the sky was filled with boos, deafening.
Zhao Pian didn't stop them either. After all, he hadn't asked any questions yet, so it was better to let them vent, so as not to interrupt them when asking questions.
Zhang Fei and Xu Zhiqian had anticipated this situation and calmly came to their seats to sit down and began to prepare their copy.
When Fan Chunren and Su Che came out over there, cheers suddenly erupted again.
If we judge by public opinion, it is impossible for Zhang Fei to win.
When the time came, Zhao Pian patted the gavel and shouted: "Quiet."
The door gradually became quiet.
Immediately, Zhao Peng summoned the defendant Su Shi to appear in court.
"Su Zizhan, we support you."
"Zizhan, teach that young man a lesson."
When Su Shi entered the hall, cheers and cheers suddenly came from the door.
This Su Shi was also a man of good temper, and he gracefully raised his hands towards the door, "Don't panic, everyone, I won't lose to that kid Zhang San."
This sentence greatly boosted the morale in front of the door.
But Fan Chunren and Su Che felt a headache.
Brother, you are the defendant now. You are not allowed to perform on stage. What do you do to those people outside the door?
Zhao Pian was also stunned. This was the first time he had seen such an arrogant defendant. He said, "Su Shi, what are you doing? If you want to act like this, don't blame me for punishing you for contempt of court."
"Ah? Sorry, sorry."
Su Shi repeatedly handed over his hand and quickly went to sit down in the defendant's seat. Since the defendant this time was of high profile, the treatment was also very good.
Zhang Fei stood up and said, "Mr. Su, do you still remember where you were on the night of the third day of the lunar month?"
A provocative smile appeared on Su Shi's lips, "Remember, I was drinking with some friends at Pan Lou that night."
Zhang Fei asked again: "Do you still remember what you said at that time?"
Su Shi said: "I said a lot that night, how can I remember them all?"
Zhang Fei lowered his head and looked at the copy, read a passage, which was what appeared in the tabloid, and then asked Su Shi: "Did you say such a thing at that time?"
Su Shi nodded and said, "Yes."
Zhang Fei said: "I don't know where you learned that Wang Xueshi requested that tabloids be banned from discussing current affairs?"
Su Shi said: "I also heard what my colleagues said."
"Colleague." Zhang Fei nodded and said, "Then I can think that if you were not an official, you would not have known about this at that time."
"I object."
Fan Chunren stood up immediately and said: "Zhang San's words are obviously an overgeneralization and inducement..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Fei said: "I'm done asking."
Then he sat down.
Xu Zhiqian whispered: "It seems that Fan Sijian has indeed made a lot of progress!"
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "I can't tell yet."
Fan Chunren stood up and said: "I hope that Bachelor Wang will come to court to testify."
Zhao Pian immediately summoned Wang Anshi to the court.
Su Shi stood up and sat aside to rest.
Wang Anshi once swore that he would never sit in the witness box again. It was too painful, but this time he did not have a trace of resentment because he believed that this was his own mistake and he must bear the consequences.
Fan Chunren asked: "Do you remember, Bachelor Wang, what you were doing on the morning of the third grade of junior high school?"
Wang Anshi said: "I am discussing matters with the officials in Chui Gong Hall."
"What are you talking about?"
"On whether to ban tabloids from discussing current affairs."
"I wonder where did Academician Wang go after the meeting?" Fan Chunren asked again.
Hearing this, Zhang Fei whispered: "He has indeed made progress."
Wang Anshi said: "I went to the genuine bookstore."
Fan Chunren asked: "I wonder why Bachelor Wang went to the genuine bookstore?"
Wang Anshi said: "I will inform Zhang San of the court's decision and ask him to stop publishing tabloids."
Fan Chunren said: "Is it about banning tabloids from discussing current affairs?"
Wang Anshi nodded.
Fan Chunren said: "Can Master Wang ensure that Zhang San did not reveal anything to the outside world after learning about it?"
Wang Anshi shook his head: "No."
Fan Chunren said: "If Zhang San leaks this matter to the outside world, does it count as leaking court secrets?"
Wang Anshi shook his head and said: "Of course not."
Fan Chunren said: "I'm done asking."
