After making corresponding arrangements, Jiang Fan wandered around the room for a while and then stepped out.
He took Tieniu to the special examination room in the government office.
The place where the judge goes to court to decide the case is in a corner of the government office and is connected to the street outside.
Because this court hearing must be open to the public, it is naturally impossible to build it within the government office.
Comparatively speaking, the folk customs in Da Zhou were fairly civilized.
The founding of the People's Republic of China was not long ago, and the habits of the officialdom were relatively clear.
In addition, the salary level of officials is extremely high, and the emperor has a zero-tolerance and ruthless attitude towards corruption, so the people do not have much fear of officials.
So every time there is a case that requires a judge to be brought to court, a large number of people will often come to watch.
It stands to reason that all kinds of political strategies have proved that the current emperor of Zhou Dynasty is the emperor of the sage.
The Great Zhou Dynasty itself was in the early stages of founding the country, and domestic conflicts had not yet accumulated to an irreconcilable level.
So no matter how you look at it, the entire country should be thriving and developing vigorously.
But... there were many places in the Zhou Dynasty where people were in dire straits!
In the final analysis, the current emperor of Zhou Dynasty can be said to have a militaristic temper!
Geniuses often stand out because what they see and what they think about are beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
In the eyes of geniuses, it is an extremely correct choice, but for ordinary people, it is completely unable to keep up with the thinking and pace.
If the genius itself is just an independent individual, then this difference will not cause any problems. At best, in the eyes of ordinary people, the genius will only be regarded as a madman who has whims all day long.
But if this genius becomes the king of a country and sits on the supreme chair.
When one person's words, deeds, and thoughts are enough to have a huge influence on a country, all problems will be infinitely magnified.
Today's Emperor Zhou is in such a situation.
It is very painful to be in a state where everyone is drunk and I am awake alone. It is not only the pain of Emperor Jing Zhou Xian, but also the pain of the entire country of Zhou Dynasty!
After years of using troops abroad, the Great Zhou Dynasty, which was built in the flames of war, never got enough time to recuperate.
Unexpectedly, the results of consecutive battles and victories forced Emperor Zhou to create a illusory and prosperous world.
This prosperous scene is like a fat man who has been fattened by hormones. He looks fat, but in fact he can't breathe even if he takes two steps.
No matter how successful the victory is in consecutive battles, it is still a huge drain on national resources.
If the weather were good, the situation could still be maintained, but with the sudden severe drought in recent months, the tightrope seemed to be broken all of a sudden.
Nowadays, the Great Zhou Dynasty has indeed reached a crisis-ridden situation. However, the image of the Zhou Dynasty's military might is still deeply engraved in the hearts of the people for the time being, so it is still calm on the surface.
Jiang Fan didn't know what the current overall situation of the Zhou Dynasty was, but the recent changes in food prices did make him a little worried.
Because in his world, he is passively changing his life, and the source of that change is completely related to this other world.
Therefore, a stable alien world where he can freely access resources meets his needs.
Thinking about these things, Jiang Fan had already brought Tieniu to the court where the judge was deciding the case.
Outside the court hall, hundreds of people gathered to watch the excitement, while in the hall, an old woman and a man with a wretched description were kneeling.
A lawyer stood in the hall and was speaking impassionedly.
Zhou Tingyu sat upright in the judge's chair and did not comment on the lawyer's submissions.
Jiang Fan suddenly took Tieniu to court, which really shocked Zhou Tingyu.
Not caring about continuing to show official dignity, he quickly stood up from the judge's chair and trotted to Jiang Fan.
With a humble smile on his face, he said: "Sir, you came so suddenly? Is there anything I need to do for you?"
"It's okay. You don't need to worry about me. Just continue to look at your case. I suddenly felt bored and thought of the human life lawsuit you just mentioned, so I came over to take a look."
Jiang Fan waved his hand and said casually.
"Ah? That's just right. I am interrogating the plaintiff. The lawyer is stating the case. Zhang Yuanwai and his son will be brought to the court soon. How about you... take my seat?"
Zhou Tingyu did not doubt that he was there and said enthusiastically.
"No, no, no, bring me a chair and I'll sit next to you. Just pretend that I don't exist. I'm just curious about the case. Don't affect the process for me."
Jiang Fan reached out and pointed towards where the clerk was sitting in the hall, and said.
Immediately, a yamen servant went to find an imperial chair and moved it next to the scribe.
As Jiang Fan sat over, the clerk who was responsible for recording the case seemed a little nervous. Seeing this, Jiang Fan smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, I'm not here to cause trouble. Just do what you usually do now.
I will not affect you."
After saying that, he leaned directly on the back of the Taishi chair.
Tieniu stood quietly behind Jiang Fan, his burly body causing huge psychological pressure on the scribe beside him.
So much so that the clerk's face turned bitter and he thought to himself, "This doesn't affect me." Just sitting here is enough to make people tremble, okay?
Zhou Tingyu seemed quite calm. Although the corner of his eye kept drifting towards Jiang Fan, at least his main attention was still on the hall.
Jiang Fan did not listen carefully to the lawyer's remarks. He leaned on the back of the Grand Master's chair in an inconspicuous manner, but his eyes were always on the kneeling old woman and the wretched young man in the observation hall.
The old woman's face was a bit mean, and the young man was kneeling on the ground, his eyes looking rather evasive.
Although the statement that phase comes from the heart is very absurd, it still makes some sense. At least for Jiang Fan, his first impression of the old woman and the young man was not very good when they first met.
Soon, the litigator completed his statement and accusation, and Zhou Tingyu asked the yamen to escort Zhang and his son to the court again.
Compared with the old woman and the young man, Zhang Yuanwai and his son clearly won in terms of appearance.
At least it looks generous and generous, giving people an intuitive feeling of being quite comfortable.
Of course, people would subconsciously sympathize with the so-called weak. The shabby clothes of the old woman and the young man formed a sharp contrast with the silk attire of Zhang Yuanwai and his son.
So as Zhang Yuanwai and his son were brought into the hall, the people who were watching the excitement suddenly started to yell and curse.
However, there has been a shortage of food recently, so no one is going to court for rotten vegetable leaves.
Although the scene was a bit angry, it didn't look chaotic.
