Chapter 480 There is not much time left for them
The purpose of Zhang Fei's coming here is not to plead for the people, nor to try a few complicated cases. If it is just that, there is basically no difficulty, and no one will target them.
Isn't it illegal for the powerful to kill people now?
Of course it's illegal.
Zhang Fei wants to build a brand new judicial system here, and even change the previous judicial concepts. This is the most difficult thing.
Therefore, this requires publicity, and it is necessary to show the excellent side of this system in order to gain everyone's approval.
It's like doing business.
Originally, Zhang Fei planned to use the case of Zhong Er to light the first fire and frighten both civil and military personnel, but now it seems that Zhong Er may not come until later, at least the details of the public prosecutor's law must be revealed first. I can figure it out, but it's not strange, after all, generals are very afraid of such things.
Just happened to encounter Zhang's mother-killing case again.
And cases like this, in fact, are often encountered in later generations, and it is often the balance between law and emotion.
This is a very typical case, and it is also closely related to the lives of ordinary people. It can be used to package and publicize the public security law.
After resting in the room with Xu Zhiqian for a while, the young couple went out of the study to help Gao Wenyin.
After all, it is not a matter of a day for such a big family to settle down here. In addition to the exhaustion of the boat, everyone's faces are tired. Just make your own bedroom.
Everyone just had a hasty dinner, and then went back to their houses to rest.
On the second day, Zhang Fei slept until the sun was high before slowly waking up. There was already nothing around her. Xu Zhiqian's biological clock was quite scary.
Although the place has changed, Gao Wenyin remains the same, standing behind Zhang Fei and combing his hair carefully.
"lady."
"what's up?"
"You don't have to wake up so early for me every day. You're tired after a long day of work. You should rest more."
Seeing that Gao Wenyin's face looked haggard, Zhang Fei couldn't help being very concerned.
Gao Wenyin hurriedly explained: "This has nothing to do with you, it's because I didn't sleep well last night."
Zhang Fei asked: "Are you feeling unwell?"
"No." Gao Wenyin shook her head, "Maybe I'm not used to it."
Recognize the bed?Probably not, when I was in the new house, I never heard that she wasn't used to it!Could it be that she has not come out of the assassination that day.
Zhang Fei suddenly thought, "Why don't I sleep with you tonight."
Gao Wenyin was taken aback for a moment, then blushed and said coquettishly, "I don't want it."
There is a play!
Although Gao Wenyin said "no", Zhang Fei was overjoyed, because Gao Wenyin always seemed a little flustered when talking about such topics in the past, but she was not as shy as today.
Just at this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and the ambiguous atmosphere immediately disappeared without a trace.
Being able to push open Zhang Fei's bedroom door so directly, she knew it was Xu Zhiqian without even thinking about it.
"It'll be fine when you wake up." Xu Zhiqian breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhang Fei asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Xu Zhiqian said: "Just now, Mr. Su Xiao sent someone to inform you that he will go to the prefect Cai's place for a banquet later."
"So soon?"
Zhang Fei said: "Then where is the sense of ceremony in this post?"
He estimated that it would take two or three days.
Xu Zhiqian glanced at Gao Wenyin suddenly, "Sister Gao, why is your face so red?"
"what?"
Gao Wenyin seemed to be thinking about something, startled, "No! No!"
But as he said that, his face turned even redder.
Xu Zhiqian seemed to see something, and gave Zhang Fei two encouraging looks.
Zhang Fei's happiness is broken, with such a generous wife, what more can a husband ask for!
Seeing that Gao Wenyin's cheeks were as red as the sun, Xu Zhiqian couldn't bear to tease her, and said, "Sister Gao, help him fix it quickly, don't be late."
She has a quick temper, so she couldn't stand Zhang Fei sitting in front of the bronze mirror longer than she was a woman.
"Ah."
Gao Wenyin immediately combed Zhang Fei's hair neatly.
After breakfast, Zhang Fei was ready to go out. Originally, he wanted to ask Cao Dongdong to go with him, but he went to his Uncle Qin's house for a banquet early in the morning.
"Sanlang, be careful on the road."
Gao Wenyin stood in front of the door and said worriedly.
"Understood!" Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Ma'am, wait for me to come back."
Gao Wenyin immediately looked at Xiafei's cheeks again, and glanced at Xu Zhiqian next to her, but did not answer.
When they came to the gate of the city, Su Zhe was already waiting there. After picking up Su Zhe, they went to the government office together.
Entering the city, I saw that the impression of Hezhong Mansion and Bianjing is very different. Bianjing is full of scholar-bureaucrats and relatives, and you can see five-horse carriages from time to time, and the wheels may be higher than the head.
And in this Hezhong Mansion, merchants carrying burdens can be seen everywhere. There are row upon row of hotels and refreshments on the street, and the commercial atmosphere in the market is very strong.
You must know that before coming here, almost everyone told Zhang Fei that this is Longtan and Tiger's Cave. Although everyone pointed to different things, Zhang Fei was a little surprised by the contrast.
"This Hezhong Mansion is not as chaotic as imagined, and it is relatively prosperous."
"But it's not easy to come by!"
"how do I say this?"
Zhang Fei turned around, looked at Su Zhe and asked.
Su Zhe said: "Do you still remember the lawsuit you fought for illegal salt?"
Zhang Fei nodded and said, "Of course I remember."
Su Zhe said again: "Then do you still remember why there is a shortage of salt in Xuzhou?"
Zhang Fei said, "It's because of the riots in Yanhu, Jiezhou."
Su Zhe nodded and said, "At that time, the entire Hezhong Mansion was in great chaos because of this incident. The prefect Cai was ordered in a crisis, but it only took one year to manage the Hezhong Mansion."
Zhang Fei frowned and said, "This is not a good thing for us!"
Su Zhe nodded with a smile and said, "I know some people here. They are all people of insight, but they don't want to change the status quo. After all, this stability is hard-won."
Speaking of this, he suddenly changed the subject, and said again: "However, the prefect Cai did not fundamentally improve the problems of the Hezhong Mansion, he just adopted a policy of tolerance, and tried to turn a blind eye to the sale of private salt by salt households. Close an eye, and try to give convenience to the merchants."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "It seems that we still have a place to use our talents."
Su Zhe smiled bitterly and said, "I want to do what Cai Zhifu can't do. It's not easy. If I'm not careful, I may still make Cai Zhifu's previous efforts go to waste."
Before the public prosecution, he still very much agreed with the policies implemented by Cai Yanqing.
Zhang Fei said with a chuckle: "This is also an opportunity. If the prefect Cai can do it, then how can we be promoted based on this."
After walking for half an hour, the two came to the government office.
But I saw a middle-aged man in a gray robe standing in front of the door.
This person was Cai Yanqing. After all, he came from a prime minister's family, so he had a very good temperament.
"Zhang San (Su Zhe) has met the prefect Cai."
Zhang Fei and Su Zhe stepped forward quickly and bowed their hands in salute.
Cai Yanqing is an official of the fourth rank, while Zhang Fei, the chief judge, is designated as the sixth rank, which is the same rank as Tongpan.
But based on the law of the ancestors, the level of the rank cannot explain the problem, it depends on the power.
Cai Yanqing couldn't shut down Zhang Fei, the chief judge.
"Courteous, polite"
Cai Yanqing clasped his hands back with a salute, and said: "Chairman Zhang's prestige is as powerful as thunder, and seeing him today, his reputation is really well-deserved. In the Song Dynasty, there are up-and-coming stars like Chief Judge Zhang and Chief Prosecutor Su, so why not worry about it?"
"How dare! How dare!"
Zhang Fei hurriedly said: "Prefect Cai is too famous, and the younger generation will need more advice from Prefect Cai."
After exchanging pleasantries, Cai Yanqing invited the two of them into the hall.
After serving the tea, Cai Yanqing first asked: "I heard that Judge Zhang was assassinated when he was passing through Pinglu County?"
Zhang Fei nodded.
Cai Yanqing asked again: "Have you found clues?"
Zhang Fei said: "Thank you, Prefect Cai, for your concern. I haven't found anything yet."
Cai Yanqing sighed: "In any case, this matter happened in my Hezhong Mansion, and Cai can hardly escape the blame."
Zhang Fei hurriedly said: "This has nothing to do with the prefect Cai, it is because Zhang San has too many enemies, and this is not the first time I have been attacked."
Cai Yanqing was surprised: "Really?"
But when I think of Zhang Fei's stories, it seems that this is all reasonable.
Su Zhe said: "Perhaps some people also want to use this to provoke the relationship between President Zhang and Cai Zhifu."
Zhang Fei repeatedly nodded and said: "Chief Prosecutor Su is right."
The two sides have to discuss this matter clearly, otherwise, who knows what the other party thinks.
"The generosity of the two of you makes Cai feel even more guilty." Cai Yanqing sighed, and said, "Actually speaking, Cai should immediately send someone to investigate the matter and find out the real culprit, but... But now this matter should be investigated by the Public Prosecutor's Law, so after thinking about it, Cai thought why not let Chief Judge Zhang investigate it himself."
Zhang Fei hurriedly said: "It may not be enough for the time being, the police station still needs to recruit people, and this has to be done gradually, not in a hurry."
Cai Yanqing nodded, and said: "Then I don't know how our government will cooperate with you. Cai heard that the matter of collecting taxes in Kaifeng is also under the jurisdiction of the public prosecutor."
"no."
Zhang Fei said: "Cai Zhifu has misunderstood. The matter of collecting taxes in Kaifeng Prefecture is under the control of the tax department, not our public security bureau. But at present, the imperial court has no plans to establish a tax department in Hezhong Prefecture. We only focus on the judiciary. In other respects, it is still up to the people." Government office management.
As for the judiciary, our imperial court and the procuratorate are almost ready. Now we are waiting for the police station to recruit people. At that time, we need Zhifu Cai to transfer the relevant files to our imperial court. "
In fact, the tax department has already arrived, but it has not been announced. The routine remains the same, and evidence must be collected secretly.
In addition, as long as the judicial files are transferred to the imperial court, it means that the judicial power is also transferred.
Cai Yanqing hurriedly said: "As for the dossier, Mrs. Cai has already prepared everything, and I can send it to Judge Zhang today."
Zhang Fei was taken aback for a moment, "If it doesn't take two more days, the imperial court over there will have to undergo some renovations."
Cai Yanqing nodded and said, "Okay! When Judge Zhang needs it, send someone over to tell me, and I'll send someone there right away."
Su Zhe on the side sighed secretly.
Cai Yanqing was anxious to transfer the files over, apparently because he didn't want to get too involved with them.
This time, an old servant came to the door and said, "Master, the banquet is ready."
Cai Yanqing turned his head to look at Zhang Fei, and said with a smile, "I heard that Judge Zhang created his own science called the Law of Legal System. I wonder if Cai will have the honor to ask for it."
Zhang Fei clasped his hands and said, "How dare you! How dare you! Let Zhifu Cai laugh."
Cai Yanqing said: "Then let's chat while drinking, please!"
"Please."
During the meeting, Cai Yanqing never mentioned political affairs, only talked about knowledge, the atmosphere was harmonious, but also very flat.
In the afternoon, Zhang Fei and Su Zhe bid farewell to Cai Yanqing, got into the carriage, and left the government office.
"What do you think, Mister Su?"
Zhang Fei asked.
Su Zhe said: "As I imagined, the prefect of Cai will not make things difficult for us, but he will not provide us with much help. After all, he needs the assistance of various forces to manage the Hezhong Mansion well."
This must be something that offends people, and Cai Yanqing's main job is not trial, but finance, and even military affairs. His work needs the help of others, so it is reasonable to keep a distance from Zhang Fei and the others.
Zhang Fei said with a smile: "It seems that we can only rely on ourselves."
Just at this moment, someone shouted outside: "Root! Rob!"
The two immediately opened the curtain of the car and looked outside, only to see a man shouting and chasing towards an alley.
Then I heard a passerby say: "What's going on these two days, I didn't see you once in half a month before, but today I saw you twice in one day, and this morning I heard that someone's home was burglarized last night."
The person next to him said: "I heard that those yamen servants have no intention of catching thieves these days, so that there are more thieves."
"Why?"
"Haven't you heard that the imperial court sent some royal police to replace these yamen servants, and they will be out of work soon, so they have to work hard."
"Royal Police. Just hearing this name makes people uneasy!"
"Keep your voice down, if people listen to you, it will be terrible."
Put down the car curtains.
Su Zhe said to Zhang Fei: "When I came here before, this didn't happen."
"It seems that they just regard me as an enemy!"
Zhang Fei smiled wryly, and knew in his heart that those people in the capital must have only mentioned him in their letters. In fact, this is also the case. He is the core of the entire public security system.
Su Zhe comforted: "That's not necessarily the case. If I came, the law and order in this Hezhong Mansion would have been very chaotic. Don't you want to tell everyone that the government's decision-making is very wise. After you come, there will be no more troubles." , then the responsibility can be shifted to the public prosecutor’s law.”
Zhang Fei shrugged and said, "Anyway, we don't have much time left."
Su Zhe said: "However, Cao Yameni didn't bring the royal police, so we still have to recruit people. I'm afraid we will still be subject to them for a while."
Zhang Fei asked: "As for the case of Guixiang, are you sure you can find any evidence?"
Su Zhe said: "Actually, I have found a key witness, but this witness is not here at present, and it may take two or three days."
If he is not certain of his temperament, he will not take the initiative to bring it up.
Zhang Fei nodded and said: "You have to hurry up, I want to use this case to make the imperial court operate, I have to make some noise, give those people some shock, and at the same time eliminate the misunderstanding of the people about us, maybe after the trial of this case , General Zhong and the others will arrive here as soon as possible.”
Su Zhe hurriedly asked: "It seems that you are sure to handle this case well."
Zhang Fei smiled confidently: "This is my job. If this is not handled well, it may not be long before we have to pack up and leave."
After hearing this, Su Zhe couldn't help but look forward to it, "Well, I'll try to find the evidence as soon as possible."
