Chapter 84: The injustice is settled (please follow up)
I still remember that when Zhang Fei came here just now, he was like a rat crossing the street, everyone was shouting to beat him!
But when Zhang Fei left here, there was a chorus of praise.
Compared with the confusion in the Li Siyi case, the public trial process of this case was immersive for them, and they were either sad, happy, or moved to tears.
Therefore, they all knew that Zhang Fei was defending Cao Dongdong on the surface, but in fact he was defending Lin Fei.
Although the truth was revealed, no one blamed Lin Fei.
What's more, it's a pity, and some people are even complaining about Lin Fei.
What’s the explanation?
Because this is the normal state of the Song Dynasty. This kind of fact is too many and common, but most people endure it silently. This case also gave Lin Fei an opportunity to vent, and it also gave everyone an opportunity to vent.
"Daddy, don't hit me. The child is already innocent!"
When Cao Ping appeared with his head held high, Cao Dongdong was immediately scared to the point of peeing. His father started beating people, but it was not serious or serious. The key point is that his father was really an expert archer and could shoot left and right.
But for Cao Dongdong, this is a left-right fighting technique, which is equivalent to being beaten by two people.
Cao Ping stared at his son lovingly, waved his hands and said, "Daddy won't beat you. Although your kid often messes up, he has not disgraced our Cao family after all! Not bad! Not bad!"
The tone was full of praise.
Cao Dongdong gradually became happy and said to himself, Zhang San didn't bully me, he didn't bully me. Hehe said: "It doesn't matter whose son we are."
Cao Ping smiled and nodded.
It turns out that Zhang Fei told Cao Dongdong in advance that everything in the hall should be told truthfully and not to hide some real thoughts, just thoughts and nothing else.
The purpose is to pursue a reversal effect.
This kind of routine is not common nowadays, but it was very common in Zhang Fei's era. First, he continued to spread rumors and slanders, causing public anger, but a clarification turned things around. This huge contrast will
It makes people feel guilty and makes them more impressed by the good side.
In fact, of course Cao Dongdong was at fault in this matter, but Cao Ping now believes that his son was not intimidated, but dared to go to court to argue for the dignity of the Cao family. He was very happy and couldn't bear to blame him!
Cao Dongdong suddenly thought of something and said, "Dad, I hope you can intercede for Lin Fei."
Cao Ping was surprised and said: "He harmed you so much, why do you still want to plead for him?"
Cao Dongdong rolled his eyes and said: "Because he is a good soldier. Our Cao family is a family of generals. For such a good soldier, the children respect him very much."
Cao Ping pondered for a moment, "Is this what Zhang San taught you?"
Cao Dongdong shook his head: "No! That's what I think."
Cao Ping didn't criticize him and said: "It seems that you have indeed made a lot of progress!"
Cao Dongdong was happy and thought, Taozi and the others don't have Zhang San's ability. I have to win over Zhang San. With Zhang San here, I won't be afraid of punishment from my father and aunt.
...
Before retreating, Wang Anshi and Sima Guang had quietly left the government office.
At this time, the two of them were walking on the street, but the biting cold wind was not as cold as their hearts!
"Alas...this really creates a problem for Uncle Hui!"
Wang Anshi sighed.
Sima Guang said: "It's not really a problem, just deal with it according to the law."
Wang Anshi looked at him with contempt: "You are really hard-hearted."
Sima Guang hummed: "I am thinking about the overall situation, and I sympathize with Lin Fei, but if I don't do this, more people will follow suit in the future."
"More people will follow suit?" Wang Anshi said, stroking his hands, "How wonderful! How wonderful!"
Sima Guang said angrily: "Are you trying to make excuses again?"
Wang Anshi sighed: "I'm not in the mood to play harp to a cow today. Come on, let's go have a drink."
Playing the harp to a cow? Sima Guang immediately hummed: "What a coincidence, I have no intention of playing the harp to a cow today. Farewell!"
Turn around and leave.
When the two of them crossed paths, a carriage slowly passed by them.
Inside the carriage.
"Hey! If you have something to say, just say it, but don't keep looking at me like that. I'm going to panic."
Ever since she got in the car, Xu Zhiqian looked at Zhang Fei affectionately and without saying a word, making Zhang Fei blush.
"Thanks!"
Xu Zhiqian's eyes were filled with tears, and she spoke to Zhang Fei sincerely.
When she was watching the lawsuit just now, she cried several times, and now her eyes are a little red and swollen.
She didn't expect Zhang Fei would do this.
Because their agreement at that time was that if she couldn't convince Lin Fei, she would have to go to court. Each of them had their own decisions, and of course they had to win first.
Unexpectedly, while Zhang Fei won the lawsuit, he also spoke a fair word for Lin Fei.
This made her very excited.
Zhang Fei saw Xu Zhiqian in this form for the first time and said hurriedly: "Don't be so sentimental. Even without you, I would still say this. This person is not a plant, how can he be ruthless!"
Xu Zhiqian said: "I, Xu Zhiqian, have clear grievances. Even if you are not doing it for me, I still want to say thank you. Besides, you also said a lot of nice things to me."
"Okay, thank you very much. Don't even think about offering yourself to me. I won't accept it."
Zhang Fei is right and strict in his words.
"You...you are such a hateful person, can't you talk properly?" Xu Zhiqian lightly stomped her feet and suddenly rolled her eyes, "Forget it! No matter what you say today, I won't be angry with you."
Zhang Fei rolled his eyes and said, "Come on! You are so generous because you just want to ask me how I will judge you. If you have a quarrel with me, how do you ask?"
Xu Zhiqian's face suddenly turned red, "No...no, I won't argue with you. It's just because you did a great thing today and said a lot of nice things to me."
"Then don't ask."
"If you don't ask...!"
Xu Zhiqian said: "Why can't I ask? These are two different things and they cannot be confused."
Zhang Fei gave Xu Zhiqian a look of deep disdain.
Xu Zhiqian blushed and asked, "What do you think the sentence will be?"
"No sincerity!"
Zhang Fei shook his head and said.
Xu Zhiqian said: "Then what do you want to say?"
Zhang Fei began to scan her body, thinking, I have to say, this woman is really good-looking, even my sister Yun can't compare to her, she has a good figure, she should be straight, and she should be up.
It's a pity that he has a bad temper, so he is suitable for playing friendly games.
"What are you looking at?"
Xu Zhiqian was so embarrassed and angry by him.
"ah?"
Zhang Fei raised his head and said without changing his expression: "It's just to see if you keep your promise."
"What promise?"
"Just don't be angry with me today."
"But...but you can't push yourself too far." Xu Zhiqian said aggrievedly.
Zhang Fei suddenly raised his hand, closed his eyes and pinched his fingers.
The movements are done in one go, flowing smoothly.
Xu Zhiqian rolled her eyes, pursed her lips and said, "Nervous."
"I estimate that Lin Fei should be sentenced to serve as a commander on the northwest front."
"Tou?"
Xu Zhiqian said: "That's nonsense. This guy is an officer and is more than a hundred times stronger than the commander of the Forbidden Army. Can this be punishment?"
Zhang Fei snorted: "You have to ask again, and you don't believe me after I ask."
Xu Zhiqian said: "Then you should give me a reason."
Zhang Fei said: "Because I have told Yanei in advance to ask his father to intercede for Lin Fei. If the Cao family makes this request at this time and gives Lin Fei a chance to make meritorious deeds, it will greatly improve the reputation of the Cao family.
Whether it's among the people or in the military."
"real!"
Xu Zhiqian suddenly stood up excitedly.
boom!
When she seemed to forget that she was sitting in a carriage, she came into close contact with the roof of the carriage.
"Ouch!"
Xu Zhiqian covered her head with both hands in pain.
"Pfft...Haha, I calculated a lot, but I didn't expect you to hit your head. It's true that a wise man will make a mistake after all his considerations. Haha!"
"dare you laugh!"
"Ha ha!"
"Don't laugh!"
"Would you like me to rub it for you?"
"Go away."
.....
Back at Xu Mansion, Xu Zun just patted his shoulder with his hand and said with great relief, "I didn't see the wrong person!"
For Zhang Fei, this sentence is only slightly inferior to the happiness brought by Xu Zhiqian hitting the roof of the car.
...
Lin Fei confessed everything that day, but there were some twists and turns. He originally wanted to bear everything on himself, but Wu Yuhou confessed the truth and said that he actually had the idea.
As for Mrs. Lin's life experience, why Zhang Fei didn't tell it in class? It's because she is also a poor woman. She was originally from Damingfu, but because her husband gambled, he sold her to a brothel to work as a prostitute. Later, fortunately, Lin Fei She wanted to rescue her, but Lin Fei also spent all his savings on her and borrowed a lot.
So he asked Wu Yuhou for help.
Wu Yuhou has been Lin Fei's friend for many years. Lin Fei once saved his life, and he has always fought for his friend. Therefore, he proposed this plan and used Cao Dongdong to get promoted. This officer's treatment is much better than that of the instructor. The money will be paid back soon.
And all this is what Lin Fei deserves, he paid for it with his life.
Mrs. Lin also took the initiative to agree to help Lin Fei.
However, Wu Yuhou had calculated everything, but failed to calculate that although Cao Dongdong was afraid of the two queen mothers, he was also a fool, and Ma Xiaoyi, a dog-headed military advisor, was on hand to make suggestions, so he actually chose to go to court with them.
Although the case was understood, it also posed a problem for Mr. Lu.
After Zhang Fei's argument in the hall, he also felt compassion!
At this time, Cao Ping suddenly reported to the emperor, saying that Cao Dongdong was also at fault, and that the Cao family would not hold Lin Fei responsible. He also suggested that Lin Fei be sent to the northwest border to serve as an army commander, so that he could serve his crime well.
At the same time, Queen Mother Cao and Queen Mother Gao also stepped forward to intercede for Lin Fei.
And today's little emperor Zhao Xu is fond of martial arts at heart. After all, his idol is Li Erfeng, the general of Tiance, not Zhao Laoer, the god of donkey and cart war. He has a different view on soldiers. He respects Di Qing very much. He just came to the throne. He ordered a portrait of Di Qing to be brought to the palace, and personally made a memorial inscription for him.
After he learned the reason, he had no intention of punishing Lin Fei.
So he personally directed the case and sent Lin Fei and Wu Yuhou to the northwest border to serve as troops, but secretly asked Lin Fei to serve as the capital commander there.
Although he was a low-level officer in Dutou in the Northern Song Dynasty, his authority was equivalent to that of a company commander.
...
The cold wind is biting.
"Lin Fei will never forget your great kindness. I would also like to ask you two benefactors to pay homage to Lin Fei."
"Why!"
Zhang Fei hurriedly grabbed Lin Fei and said with a smile: "Actually, we should say thank you. If you hadn't fought bravely at the border to kill the enemy, we would not be able to live freely in the capital."
Xu Zhiqian on the side glanced at Zhang Fei and nodded slightly.
Lin Fei looked at the two of them, with tears in his eagle eyes. He was not good at words, but he just gave Zhang and Xu a fist salute, and then embarked on a new journey.
Zhang Fei looked at the retreating figures of Lin Fei and the others, and suddenly felt a chill on the tip of his nose. He looked up and heard a clear and sweet voice, "It's snowing!"
Zhang Fei turned his head to look at Xu Zhiqian and said with a smile: "I don't know if this is a redress of injustice."
Xu Zhiqian smiled and said, "Actually, you are not a bad person, and you understand the righteousness well."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "What? Are you attracted to me?"
Xu Zhiqian's smile faded and she spat: "It's just a little unfair!"
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Please, Madam Xu, please stop correcting my only shortcoming."
Xu Zhiqian rolled her eyes, shook her head, turned around and walked into the city.
"You don't seem to agree?" Zhang Fei chased after him.
"Of course I don't agree, I only know two."
"what else?"
"Thick-skinned."
"Isn't this an advantage? It also protects you from the cold! You really don't know how to appreciate it."
