Yushitai is specialized in interrogating officials. Generally, they will not be punished. After all, there is an unwritten rule.

The punishment is not good enough for the scholar-bureaucrats.

But Zhang Fei is not a scholar-official. Under normal circumstances, he can be tortured.

However, Jiang Zhiqi and others didn't want Zhang Fei to bear the burden alone, so they had to at least bring Xu Zun in. If Zhang Fei was loyal and willing to shoulder the responsibility, then they would probably give Zhang Fei a set meal.

Because if this is the case, there are many doubts. Zhang Fei's age is the biggest doubt.

How can you understand this when you are so young and what books have you read?

This thing cannot be proven.

This is sufficient reason for torture.

However, the interrogation process was somewhat different from what they had imagined. Zhang Fei didn't show any affection at all. He tried to blame everyone, even his own father-in-law.

He is worthy of being the founder of the legal system.

To say that this kid understands the Three Cardinal Principles and the Five Constant Rules is damning.

With Zhang Fei's confession, Jiang Zhiqi and the others have basically achieved all their goals.

It depends on whether the net is spread to a larger size or a smaller size.

After taking Zhang Fei down, Jiang Zhiqi said to Lan Yuanzhen: "Based on Zhang San's confession, I'm afraid I have to ask Sima Junshi and Xu Zhongtu for questioning."

Even if you don't have any selfish intentions, you must find these two people.

There are too many doubts about these two people.

Why did Sima Guang force Zhang Fei to go to class?

As for Xu Zun, who can believe that Zhang Fei, at his age, can create an original idea? It would be more convincing to say that Xu Zun guided him.

Lan Yuanzhen said: "We are just ordered to come here for inspection. You can make your own decisions on how to investigate. I just advise you that there is such a big commotion outside and everyone is watching, so don't let anyone catch you.

Don’t let go of even a single clue!”

Jiang Zhiqi was shocked when he heard this, yes! This must be handled fairly, otherwise, he might be involved. He nodded repeatedly and said: "Please go back and inform the officials, we will definitely handle it fairly."

"

"OK."

Court of Trial.

"How is it going?"

When Sima Guang saw Wen Yanbo coming, he immediately walked over and asked.

Wen Yanbo shook his head and said: "They are interrogating in secret. I have asked everywhere, but there is no information at all. Even the Taiwan prison can't explain the situation clearly."

Sima Guang frowned and said: "As I expected, there are many people in the court who hate Zhang San. They will not miss this opportunity. It seems that Zhang San is really in trouble this time."

He was angry, but the old man still hoped to rescue Zhang Fei. After all, he was the one who recommended Zhang Fei to the Imperial Academy.

Moreover, he had always listened to it and felt that Zhang Fei's proposal of legal system had no intention of disturbing Tsuna Chang, so he asked Wen Yanbo to inquire about it.

However, according to the rules of the Yushitai, the censor interrogates alone and does not need to notify the superior, and can even hide it from the superior.

They wanted to torture Zhang Fei to death this time, and naturally they were not willing to let Wen Yanbo intervene. After Wen Yanbo inquired about it, he didn't get any information. In fact, the Taiwan Prison couldn't hide it. The key is that Zhang Fei was not imprisoned in the Taiwan Prison.

, Taiwan Prison really doesn’t know.

Wen Yanbo said: "Don't worry about Zhang San now. Don't forget that it was you who recommended Zhang San to the Imperial College. Now it's airtight there. I'm worried that they will expand the case."

Sima Guang sighed: "I've been mentally prepared for this. It was indeed me who recommended Zhang San to go. If they..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

"To inform you, Bachelor Sima, someone from the Yushitai is asking you to come over and help solve the case."

"It came so quickly!"

Sima Guang couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Wen Yanbo was also worried and said: "Jun Shi, this matter can be big or small. You must be extremely careful when you go and don't say the wrong thing."

Sima Guang hummed: "I have a clear conscience, so why should I be afraid?"

I remember how prosperous it was when Xu Zun first came to work in the Procuratorate. Everyone wanted to have a good relationship with him. After all, no one wanted to be prosecuted. Unfortunately, Xu Zun was not very gregarious and he still had only a few friends around him.

But in the blink of an eye, everyone now avoids him, and there are still only a few close friends around him.

"These people are really mean people."

Liu Zhao couldn't help but sneer when he saw that almost all of the officials who met him and Xu Zun hid their faces and ran away, for fear that Xu Zun would greet them.

Xu Zun chuckled: "It's not wrong for them to do this. If Zhang San is really convicted, it will be a death penalty, and I will not be able to escape."

A pocket crime that prevents speech, such as making a statement, will definitely implicate family members.

Liu Zhaodao: "You really should have advised your son-in-law at that time."

Xu Zundao: "Not to mention that I think what he said is reasonable and not nonsense. At that time, officials, rich men, Wen Gong, Wang Xueshi, and Sima Xuesi were all there, and they didn't refute, so why should I persuade him?"

"That's true."

Liu Zhao sighed and asked again: "What does Brother Zhongtu plan to do?"

Xu Zun did not dare to reveal the relationship between the emperor and Zhang Fei. He only said: "Zhang San is familiar with the art of litigation, so he must have some countermeasures. Besides, it is impossible to argue about thoughts. If they want to surrender, they will win."

, I will never let them do whatever they want."

If they impose the death penalty, the procuratorate can prosecute them. Nowadays, Yushitai is not the only one in the officialdom.

Suddenly, two officials came towards me.

"The lower official has met Liu Sheren and asked for the chief prosecutor."

The two of them bowed first, and one of them said: "We are under the orders of the Yushitai, asking Chief Inspector Xu to go to the Taili to assist in the investigation of Zhang Sanyi's case."

Liu Zhao couldn't help but said: "I wonder what this case has to do with Chief Prosecutor Xu?"

"Sorry, this case is still under investigation and we cannot disclose anything to the outside world."

"No problem!"

Xu Zun stretched out his hand to stop Liu Zhao and said: "I should also go to assist in the investigation. I just want to trouble you to go talk to my daughter and tell her not to worry."

Liu Zhao nodded: "Brother Zhongtu, please rest assured, I will definitely convey this to Qian'er."

Yushitai.

"Master Sima is here, please sit down, please sit down."

When Jiang Zhiqi saw Sima Guang, he was very polite, bowed his hands and asked Sima Guang to sit down.

It did not say that opening the court would give Sima Guang a show of strength.

"Be polite!"

Sima Guang returned the favor and sat down.

Jiang Zhiqi asked: "I invited Bachelor Sima to come here today mainly because I want to inquire about Zhang Sanyi's case. According to our investigation, it was Bachelor Sima who recommended Zhang San to the Imperial Academy as a teaching assistant."

Sima Guang nodded: "Exactly."

Jiang Zhiqi said: "But as far as I know, Zhang San is just a Jierbi, and his academic talent is no more than that. Why did Bachelor Sima recommend him to the Imperial Academy?"

Sima Guang said: "Because I plan to open a litigation school in the Law School, and Zhang San's ability to litigate is obvious to all."

Jiang Zhiqi said curiously: "But what Zhang San is talking about is not about litigation."

Sima Guang hesitated for a moment and said: "This is indeed something I did not expect. Regarding this matter, he himself also explained it in class. The reason why he did not teach litigation is because he knew that he did not have any fame.

, I was still young and was afraid that I would not be able to convince the public, so I came up with this legal method to suppress those students."

Jiang Zhiqi stroked his beard and smiled: "That sounds okay. It's quite weird."

Create a new idea to convince the public?

This sounds outrageous!

Is this a waste of genius?

Sima Guang said: "I thought so too at first, but that's what Zhang San said."

Jiang Zhiqi said: "But Zhang San said that he was not willing to go to the Imperial College to teach, but Sima Bachelor must let him go."

Sima Guang nodded, "That's right."

Jiang Zhiqi asked again: "In addition, after Zhang San finished the first class, he didn't want to go again. Or, Bachelor Sima, you must let him continue to talk about the legal system."

Sima Guang nodded slightly and said, "Yes."

Jiang Zhiqi asked: "Why?"

Sima Guang explained: "I have just explained why I asked him to ask the Imperial College to teach. As for after the first class, it was because he left many questions unclarified. I was worried that it would cause ambiguity, so I asked him

Go and finish this lesson."

Jiang Zhiqi continued to ask: "Does Bachelor Sima think he has explained it clearly now?"
