Chapter 35: Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers(1/2)

 In fact, what Chen Yuteng did was very common in the Song Dynasty, and it was not a heinous crime. Many officials also annexed the land of ordinary farmers, and they also played word games, and there were even more ugly things than this.

Why should my nephew be punished so severely?

This is unfair!

Based on this, Wang Wenshan will certainly not be convicted of the crime of kidnapping his wife by his nephew, because this charge is too serious and is a criminal offense. Once convicted, his face will be tattooed and his future will be unclear.

Of course, he would not find tea cannibals, because most of the tea cannibals were swordsmen and pen officials who had retired from the government, and their intelligence was definitely not as good as officials who were proficient in law, so he asked his student Chen Yu, a member of the Ministry of Punishment, to discuss countermeasures.

"It turns out there are so many twists and turns." Chen Yu nodded slightly.

Wang Wenshan sighed: "My nephew is not bad-hearted, but he has a soft ear. He did this after listening to the woman's advice. I don't want the interest. The land and the Zeng family can also be returned to Li Si. I just want to

It can calm people down."

This matter has reached the Kaifeng Mansion. For him, it is a failure. As a minister of the DPRK, he must settle the matter first and discuss the future matters later.

Chen Yu shook his head and said: "Teacher, I'm afraid this won't work! If the interest is not counted, it means that the judgments of Xiangfu County and Kaifeng Prefecture are both wrong. Xiangfu County is easy to say, but can Kaifeng Prefecture agree?

?"

As he spoke, he whispered: "As far as I know, this matter has already been brought to the Hanlin Academy. I'm afraid it's impossible to settle the matter quietly."

Wang Wenshan was shocked and said: "How could such a small case be brought to the Hanlin Academy?"

Chen Yu sighed: "My mentor should know that Wang Jiefu is agitating for government reforms, which involves the issue of people borrowing debts. He will definitely use this to make a big fuss."

Wang Wenshan panicked immediately, feeling completely unsure, "Then... what should we do?"

Chen Yu thought for a while and said, "Did Zeng really come up with this idea?"

Wang Wenshan nodded and said: "This is absolutely true."

Chen Yu said: "My mentor thinks that this might be a conspiracy between Zeng and Li Si to blackmail your nephew."

Wang Wenshan shook his head and said: "This is unlikely, and they didn't blackmail my nephew."

As soon as the words came out, he suddenly looked at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu said: "Maybe they want to use this case to blackmail your nephew."

......

At three o'clock in the morning, Zhang Fei came out of the house leisurely and threw Li Si's baggage to the Kaifeng Mansion. He seemed to be free from anything and happened to see Qingmei walking by carrying a bamboo basket full of fruits. He couldn't help but feel a little agitated.

Greedy, he took the initiative to say hello: "Qingmei, this melon looks pretty good."

Qingmei immediately moved the fruit basket to the other side and said: "This is not prepared for you."

Zhang Fei asked: "Will there be guests at home?"

Qingmei said: "What kind of home? This is not your home."

In her heart, she always regarded Zhang Fei as a prostitute and never gave him a good look.

It's really hard to live under someone else's roof. Even a maid dared to attack me. Zhang Fei felt a little unhappy and immediately asked: "By the way, how are you finding my place?"

Qingmei asked in astonishment: "Where do you live?"

Zhang Fei said: "Didn't your sister Qian'er ask you to help me find another place to live?"

Qingmei shook her head and said: "Sister Qian'er never gave me any orders!"

"What?"

Zhang Fei opened his eyes wide and asked: "No instructions?"

"Yeah."

Qingmei nodded.

"This is really unreasonable!"

Zhang Fei couldn't help but cursed: "I knew that woman was unreliable."

Qingmei stomped her little foot, pointed her little finger at Zhang Fei and said, "Who are you scolding?"

"Widow Liu next door." Zhang Fei said angrily.

Qingmei was stunned, "Widow Liu? There is no one named Widow Liu next door!"

When she came back to her senses, she found that Zhang Fei had walked away, and she stamped her foot again, "You lewd thief, look at me for not telling Sister Qian'er."

......

"This woman is really hypocritical. She chased me away with her words, but kept me behind her back. She clearly has some plans for me and wants to please you. It's better to seek help from others than to ask for yourself. Anyway, there is nothing to do now, so you might as well go find it yourself.

Look for it, the money will be there soon anyway.”

Zhang Fei came out of Dexu Mansion cursing and came to the street. He looked around, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Why don't you just go to Xiangguo Temple and have a look? I'm familiar with it there, and there's also touching singing, which is more popular."

It’s convenient for singles like me.”

But before he had gone far, a middle-aged man suddenly blocked his way.

"May I ask, are you Zhang Fei and Zhang Sanlang?"

"It's me."

Zhang Fei nodded.

The middle-aged man cupped his hands and said, "My master invites you."

Zhang Fei asked: "Who is your master?"

"You'll know when you go there."

Are you so awesome? Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Sorry! I don't want to know. I'm sorry."

After saying that, he walked around the middle-aged man. Suddenly, two big men with big muscles and round waists came out from the corner.

Zhang Fei frowned, stepped back, looked at the middle-aged man, took a deep breath, then lowered his head and said: "I'm sorry!"

The middle-aged man didn't care and turned sideways, "Please come this way."

Zhang Fei hesitated a little and said: "If you want to take me to some remote place, then I will call for help right now. At worst, we will break up."

The middle-aged man said: "My master is in the tea shop over there."

As he spoke, he pointed to a tea shop across the street.

Zhang Fei nodded and said: "Please."

When I came to the tea shop, I saw only a gentle old man in his fifties sitting there.

Zhang Fei looked at the old man for a moment, then suddenly gave him a bow: "Zhang San, a commoner, has met Wang Sinong."

The old man looked at Zhang Fei in surprise. After a moment, he stroked his beard and said with a smile, "What a formidable young man! Please sit down."

This person is Wang Wenshan, the chief of Sinong Temple.

"Thank you!"

Zhang Fei sat down.

Wang Wenshan said: "You must have guessed the purpose of my coming here."

Zhang Fei nodded.

Wang Wenshan sighed and said: "It is true that my nephew did something wrong in this matter, but the result of losing both sides is not what you wanted."

Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Please forgive Wang Sinong, I have no choice."

"I can understand."

Wang Wenshan smiled and nodded, saying: "I have a better way, I wonder if it is feasible?"

Zhang Fei hurriedly said: "Wang Sinong, please speak."

Wang Wenshan said: "My nephew returned his wife and land to Li Si, and the money he borrowed does not need to be paid back. In addition...!"

He suddenly looked at the middle-aged man who had just brought Zhang Fei.

The middle-aged man immediately placed a small wooden box on the table. When he opened it, he found two large ingots of silver.

"Here is one hundred taels, consider it my thanks to you." Wang Wenshan said.

Zhang Fei glanced at the silver and said with a smile: "Does Wang Sinong know why ordinary people study the law?"

Wang Wenshan asked: "Why?"

Zhang Fei said: "I'm just afraid that I will accidentally do something illegal. I really want this money, but I can't accept it because it's against the rules."

Wang Wenshan frowned and said: "So, you are bent on putting my nephew to death."

Zhang Fei smiled and said: "That's not the case."

Wang Wenshan said: "Then what do you want?"

Zhang Fei said: "Let your nephew take the initiative to admit his mistake, apologize to Li Si, and offer 500 yuan as a settlement..."

Wang Wenshan was slightly startled: "Five hundred strings? Your appetite is too big."
