Northern Song Dynasty Justice

Chapter 486

Chapter 486

Although the distinguished guests sitting here were very unhappy about this, especially seeing those three-educated and nine-class people sitting there very happy, they felt even more unhappy.

But no one was really angry enough to get up and leave, because most people knew very well in their hearts that there must be a reason for Zhang Fei's arrangement, and it was impossible to deliberately make such an arrangement to anger them.

It's not boring to such an extent, anyway, I'm still in my 20s.

This is due to the fact that they are not familiar with Zhang Fei, and those who are familiar with Zhang Fei may not think so, this guy must take revenge.

The people outside the courtyard were quite depressed, it turned out that they were really invited to sit in, this...!

The key point is that there are more than a dozen people inside, but it doesn't make the outside more spacious, it's still very crowded!

Otherwise, arrange a few more seats.

There seems to be a lot of space in the back!

Boom boom boom!

The gavel sounded again.

Immediately there was silence again inside and outside the courtyard, but the awe in people's hearts was a little less, as if the young judge was different from most officials.

"Cough cough!"

Zhang Fei cleared his throat and said loudly: "Everyone, what this court is going to hear today is the case of Wu Zhang's murder of her mother-in-law Wu Li."

While speaking, he also looked down at the copywriting.

Xu Zhiqian glanced at him a little depressed, and sighed secretly, just such an opening sentence, don't you want to write it down?

However, this opening remark really stunned the distinguished guests present.

It's so unique!

You. Are you in business?

There is also a product introduction.

Newbie!

Pure newbie!

Cai Jing and the others sitting below bowed their heads.

As soon as these words came out, they all felt that their momentum was much weaker.

Zhang Fei didn't seem to care, and looked at Su Zhe and said, "Prosecutor Su, the chief judge has read the file of this case, and there is nothing suspicious about it."

Qin Zhongshou immediately wondered: "There is no doubt, why do you care about him?"

Cao Dongdong who was sitting on the side said: "Uncle Qin, you don't know something, he just asked that on purpose."

Qin Zhongshou asked curiously, "Why?"

Cao Dongdong said: "Of course it's convenient for us to watch the trial. Why else? If he doesn't make it clear, then we can't understand it."

"what?"

Qin Zhongshou immediately petrified.

Is it that considerate?

Su Zhe stood up and said: "Returning to the chief judge, our procuratorate has sufficient evidence to prove that the only eyewitness in this case did not tell the truth. At the same time, we also found another eyewitness. According to the testimony of this witness, Our procuratorate believes that Zhang is not a murder, but a manslaughter."

"Manslaughter?"

Cai Yanqing frowned secretly, feeling a little dissatisfied in his heart, either you were innocent, or you made a mistake and killed it, which would be a bit of a sensationalist.

It was clearly aimed at him.

Many officials thought the same way.

I heard Su Zhe say again: "I beg the judge to allow me to call the witness Li Yan."

"Witness witness Li Yan!"

Zhang Fei hit the gavel once.

However, a royal policeman brought a burly man with a beard around 30 into the hall, and led him into the witness stand on the right.

"You can sit or stand."

"I can just stand."

After the royal police ordered them, they stepped aside.

In the past few days, Zhang Fei has not been busy with other things, but is teaching these court policemen the rules of performing official duties in court.

Su Zhe stood up and asked Li Yan, "What is your name, where do you live, and what do you do for a living?"

The distinguished guests sitting here were dumbfounded again.

Just now you said his name, so you have to ask again?

Those who haven't read the online articles are almost sweating. Are you trying a case or performing a show!

Cai Yanqing, who is rich in experience, must be a little ridiculous at this time.

Li Yan saw that the other party was so polite, but he wasn't that scared. After all, Su Zhe didn't sit on it, and said: "The little man is called Li Yan, and he lives in Pingshui Township. He usually makes a living by chopping firewood and hunting."

Su Zhe asked, "Is it Pingshui Township across the Guixiang River?"

Li Yan nodded.

Su Zhe continued to ask: "Do you still remember what happened in the early morning of April [-] this year?"

"of course I remember."

Li Yan said: "That morning I went up to the mountain to hunt early as usual, but after searching for a while, I didn't see any prey. I happened to come to the river, so I planned to go to the river to drink some water, wash my face, and chop some firewood to go back. Suddenly I saw a woman on the opposite bank pushing an old woman into the river, it really scared me to death."

Su Zhe asked, "Can you see the other person's face clearly?"

Li Yan shook his head and said: "Then I didn't see it clearly. It was just after dawn and I was just on the other side. I only saw the young woman wearing a hemp skirt."

Su Zhe asked again: "Then did you see the old woman's face clearly?"

Li Yan shook his head, "Of course not."

Su Zhe continued to ask: "Then, have you seen clearly what kind of clothes the old woman is wearing?"

Li Yan blinked, then shook his head and said, "I didn't see clearly either."

Cai Yanqing and Zhuo Qun looked at each other tacitly.

Zhuo Qun said in a low voice: "If I remember correctly, in Li Yan's confession, there was no mention of what clothes the old woman was wearing."

Cai Yanqing asked: "Have our people asked?"

Zhuo Qun shook his head awkwardly.

Su Zhe asked, "Why did you see what clothes the young woman was wearing, but didn't see what clothes the old woman was wearing?"

Li Yan said: "Because when I looked up, I happened to see the young woman pushing the old woman down. It was too fast, and from such a distance, I couldn't see clearly. I can only tell the truth, and I won't lie."

Su Zhe nodded with a smile, and asked again: "You said you looked up, but were you squatting then?"

Li Yan nodded and said, "I was drinking water by the river, of course I was squatting."

Su Zhe asked again: "Why do you look up to the other side?"

Li Yan grinned: "After drinking the water, of course I will raise my head!"

Su Zhe hummed, and then winked at a royal policeman next to him, who immediately stood up, and then Su Zhe said to Li Yan, "Can you demonstrate how that woman would push the old woman down?" of."

As he spoke, he pointed at the royal policeman again and said, "Just treat her as that old woman."

"Row."

Li Yan rushed up and pushed the royal policeman lightly, then said to Su Zhe, "But that woman pushed very hard, I didn't dare to push hard."

"understand!"

Su Zhe nodded with a smile, and then nodded to the royal policeman.

The royal policeman just lay down.

Su Zhe said to Li Yan again: "Try to push it in the same way just now."

Li Yanren was dumbfounded, "How can I push him lying down?"

Su Zhe asked, "Can't you push?"

Li Yan shook his head.

Su Zhe said: "That's strange. Mrs. Wu and Li have been paralyzed on the bed for eight years. Even if she sits up, she needs someone to support her, and she needs a quilt on her back. How can she stand there and be pushed?"

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar immediately, and the audience pointed at Li Yan.

"Silence! Silence!"

Zhang Fei knocked the gavel several times.

Cai Yanqing couldn't help frowning, his face showed a bit of embarrassment, thinking, why didn't I notice such a big flaw at the time.

After careful consideration, it was not him who recorded the statement, but the servants below. The core is "pushing", but how to push, I didn't ask, and I didn't think about it, because Mrs. Zhang admitted it directly, so there is no need to go further. Ask for these details.

"No, no."

Li Yan immediately waved his hands and said: "I just demonstrated it casually, and I dare not let this elder brother lie down! In fact, I saw the woman dragging the old woman to the river, and then pushed her into the river. In the river."

Su Zhe stretched out his hand again and said, "Then please demonstrate it seriously again."

The people outside the gate were all stunned. Is it so gentle?

They have also seen the trial, and the other party has already felt guilty. At this time, he must have given up the whole thing, and threatened him with a few words, you... will you know how to judge the case!

Li Yan glanced at Su Zhe guiltily, then stepped forward, hesitated for a while, then squatted down, passed his hands under the armpit of the royal policeman, bowed his knees and hugged him and threw him aside.

"Are you sure this time?"

Su Zhe asked.

Li Yan hesitated for a while, then nodded and said: "Sure."

Su Zhe nodded slightly, then turned his head and said to Zhang Fei: "Mr. Judge, our procuratorate sent people to investigate the scene of the crime. The river bank where Li Yan is located is low, so he can squat by the river and drink water. It is tall and stands on weeds. We once arranged a person as tall as Zhang to squat by the river, and if the person on the other side was also squatting, it would be impossible to see each other."

After these words, there are no insiders or outsiders. The expressions outside the court and inside the court are completely the same, and they all look at Su Che in disbelief.

Thin!

You are too thin!

It really predicted the opponent's various predictions!

At this moment, no one dared to underestimate these young people.

In traditional cases, it is all about deterrence and intimidation, and the common people know it, but Su Zhe uses absolute evidence to prove that the other party is lying, without even a single word of threat.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Cai Jing and the others couldn't hold back, and the corners of their mouths couldn't stop rising.

A group of people who have never seen the world still look down on us.

Really.!

Ha ha!

After a while, there were a few cheers outside the court.

Qin Zhongshou woke up startled, closed his mouth, swallowed, and said to Cao Dongdong: "Dong'er, that kid is really amazing!"

Cao Dongdong said with a look of disdain: "Uncle Qin has never seen a special Er pen for juniors, but he is much better than this Attorney General Su. He has never won our Er pen. Hmph."

Qin Zhongshou asked anxiously: "Is your Er pen so good?"

"My Er Bi has become the president of the court just by fighting the lawsuit. Isn't it amazing?"

"is it?"

Qin Zhongshou said in surprise.

"It's Zhang San."

Cao Dongdong pointed to Zhang Fei who was sitting high on it.

".?"

"quiet!"

Zhang Fei knocked the gavel a few times.

At this time, a prosecutor came forward with a copy of the document and handed it to Zhang Fei, "Speak to the judge, this is the evidence we investigated at the place where the crime occurred."

After Zhang Fei looked at it, he turned his head to look at Li Yan and said, "Li Yan, the chief judge reminds you that giving false testimony in the imperial court is an illegal act, and if the circumstances are serious, it can be sentenced to one to three years in prison."

Li Yan's legs gave way in fright, and he fell to his knees, "President, please forgive me! Xiaomin didn't lie on purpose. Xiaomin just wanted to claim credit, so he exaggerated."

Zhang Fei said: "You stand up first."

"Yes."

Li Yan hesitated for a while before getting up slowly.

Zhang Fei said again: "The head of the court thinks that you are a first-time offender and did not cause any serious disaster, so I can give you another chance. If you tell the truth, if you lie again, the head of the judge will punish you severely."

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Li Yan trembled his lips and said: "Actually, I didn't notice the other side at the time, I was just drinking water by the river, when I suddenly heard a splash, I looked up and saw a young woman running up, She almost fell into the river by herself, and after a while, the woman lay down on the bank and began to cry."

Zhang Fei asked: "You said you just saw it, did you look up and saw the woman standing on the shore, or did you say it for a while?"

Li Yan thought for a while, and said: "I didn't see it at first glance, but in the blink of an eye, I saw that woman running forward."

Zhang Fei nodded, and asked again: "Why didn't you tell the truth?"

Li Yan lowered his head and said: "Because I found that woman alone on the other side, I thought she must have pushed her down, and before I went to the government, I bragged a few words to the villagers, so I can only continue to say that Go down, so that the government will not suspect me, and I can still claim credit from the government."

There was a loud scolding at the door.

Lu Chapo, who was watching from the side, stomped her feet fiercely and cursed in a low voice, "It's really not a thing."
