The day of the public trial has finally arrived, standing on the stage, Wang Ke looked at the audience, and could only see a dark head moving, you can imagine how many people came to the scene. Faced with such a scene, Wang Ke's heart began to be a little nervous, for him, such a scene was the first time he had seen it, although it was already late autumn, but Wang Ke still felt that the palms of his two hands were full of sweat.
Wang Ke took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his hands, turned his head and asked, "Is the time coming?" ”
Seeing Wang Ke's question, Zhang Ying hurriedly replied: "Soon, the criminal has also been escorted over, as soon as the criminal arrives, it will start immediately." ”
Wang Ke nodded, walked back to his chair and sat down, thinking about how to speak for a while.
With a commotion from the audience, Wang Ke knew that this must be the detained silk merchant Mei Renxun who was escorted over.
Wang Ke stood up and looked at the stage, and saw Mei Renxun and a team of officers and soldiers escorting him already standing under the east platform. Wang Ke nodded to Zhang Ying, indicating that he could start now, and he stood back and let Zhang Ying walk to the front of the stage.
Zhang Ying walked to the side of the stage before he stopped, clenched his fists and said: "Fellow villagers, in order to facilitate the management of goods entering and leaving the border of our DPRK, the imperial court has specially imposed tariffs. At the beh of the emperor, our Chang'an Mansion has severely cracked down on this kind of malicious price fraud when the imperial court issued a decree, so as to give a fair environment to law-abiding businessmen, and at the same time warn those merchants who vainly want to take the opportunity to raise prices to rein in the precipice, turn back as soon as possible, and operate in good faith to show the true 'color' of businessmen. ”
Zhang Ying glanced around and continued: "Now, this government is here to openly try this case, and give a wake-up call to these merchants who want to obtain benefits through improper means, and let them know that this will not succeed!" ”
As soon as Zhang Ying's words were finished, there was a burst of cheers from the audience.
Wang Ke's performance in the audience is not strange, whether this matter endangers the interests of most people or not, but fundamentally speaking, it also affects the interests of some people, but since ancient times, the people will not consider these, one is now lively and watchable, and the other is that all people are afraid that after the price of these things rises, the things that have not risen in price will also take advantage of the trend, and in the end it will become a general rising trend, so that their interests will also be damaged, and now the government has come forward to stop it. No matter how you say it, it can be regarded as a good thing, so as soon as I heard Zhang Ying say this, I made a sincere cry from my heart.
For Zhang Ying's words, Wang Ke was not surprised, originally he wrote it out for Zhang Ying to memorize, but if he said it himself, it would definitely not have such a good effect as Zhang Ying said, and it was not yet time for him to appear, Zhang Ying as the governor of Chang'an Mansion, this opening remark was still 'handed over' to him to be the most appropriate.
As Zhang Ying walked back to the table and sat down, he slapped the startling wood in his hand and shouted, "Bring the prisoners up!" Mei Renxun, who was standing in the audience, was pushed and shoved by two officers and soldiers to the stage and stood on the edge of the stage.
In Wang Ke's view, although this Mei Renxun is now considered to be conclusive evidence, it is already inappropriate to call others criminals without pronouncing a verdict, and it is really unreasonable to ask others to kneel down.
Zhang Ying asked in a deep voice: "The prisoner standing below, report your name!" ”
After Mei Renxun saluted Zhang Ying and Wang Ke, he replied in a low voice: "The adults are above, the small people Mei Renxun, the people of Chang'an." ”
Wang Ke saw this Mei Renxun for the first time today, no matter from his appearance or speech, he couldn't tell that he was a 'treacherous' businessman, but like a knowledgeable scholar.
Wang Ke felt that this matter may be a little difficult to handle today, it will not be as easy as he imagined, if he is really a learned businessman, then it is not so simple to deal with it today. As the saying goes, hooligans are not scary, they are afraid that hooligans are cultured. The same is true of this merchant, or rather, the merchant is even more terrible, because usually they eat by mouth, and now if they want to play tricks with him, they have to have some real talent.
Zhang Ying didn't have Wang Ke's feelings, and was still playing official power by himself: "Mei Renxun, the fact that you raised the price without authorization, undermined the economic order of our dynasty, and burdened the people in your family is all from the truth!" ”
This hat is not lightly buttoned, Wang Ke also discussed it with Zhang Ying at the beginning, and as soon as he came up, he said to Dali to see if he could make this person bow his head honestly, if this can be done, it will save him the trouble of arguing with him, and make things simpler.
Now there is silence in the audience, watching how the government is trying this case, for them, this is the first time in their lives to see this case, and they also feel very novel. In fact, they don't know, not only is it the first time they have seen such a trial, but it is also the first time for Zhang Ying and Wang Ke, don't look at Zhang Ying and Wang Ke sitting on the top, their faces are calm, in fact, the hearts of the two people are also extremely nervous, and they are also afraid that in the end, not only will they not be able to do things well, but they will also be messed up, which is good-looking.
This is also what the officials of the DPRK and China are worried about, so today they did not come to the scene to watch, and this Datang is even the first public trial in history.

Mei Renxun raised his hand and clenched his fist in his chest and said: "Two adults, Xiaomin doesn't know what's wrong with Xiaomin, since ancient times, the goods sold by this merchant have been priced by the merchant himself, and I don't know why when I get to Xiaomin, it has become a crime that the adults say." For this, Xiaomin really doesn't know! ”
Mei Renxun's words caused a burst of discussion in the audience, which was polite and courteous, and also said a fact that has been in business since ancient times, which made everyone in the audience think it was true.
Wang Ke looked at Zhang Ying and found that Zhang Ying didn't know what to say now, and it was obvious that Mei Renxun's words hit Zhang Ying's seven inches, leaving Zhang Ying with nothing to say.
Hearing the voices from the audience gradually getting louder, Wang Ke knew that the people who came to see the excitement had begun to be a little impatient, and now even if they just started to 'fight' the confrontation, they would say that the people in the government were speechless in one sentence, how could they be judged! If you can't say that you are ugly today, the face of this official will be lost.
Wang Ke knew that this was the time for him to appear, so he patted Zhang Ying on the shoulder and motioned to himself. As soon as Zhang Ying saw Wang Ke make a move, his face, which was still 'cloudy' and sunny just now, immediately regained his calm, and he quickly sat on the side and gave up most of the table to Wang Ke.
Wang Ke looked at Mei Renxun, who was still 'colored' at this time, and said slowly: "Boss Mei is right, since ancient times, doing business is set by the merchant himself, and if he agrees, he will carry out 'trading', if he can't accept it, and if he can't negotiate, he will break up in two, and the business will not be benevolent, and he can come back next time." ”
As soon as Wang Ke said this, the audience was in an uproar, this is a trial or a propaganda for this boss, how can he say the same thing as the businessman! Zhang Ying also looked at Wang Ke with puzzled eyes, although he knew that Wang Ke was really trying the case with him, but Wang Ke's words really made him not understand what Wang Ke meant by this. Zhang Ying pressed the anxiety in his heart, he also knew that he couldn't blame Wang Ke at this time, that would only make the scene more difficult to control, although he didn't know what 'medicine' Wang Ke bought in his stomach, but he still didn't say anything, just sat at the table and listened quietly.
When Mei Renxun heard Wang Ke say this, the smug 'color' on his face was even worse, and he had already begun to imagine that he would be acquitted in a while and go home freely, and today's sentence brought the people of the official mansion to the south wall, and the matter that could no longer continue the trial would also spread throughout the guild, laying a good foundation for his own prestige, so that his peers had to be impressed with him.
Just when Mei Renxun was secretly happy, he heard Wang Ke's voice pop out again, but this time it was not natural: "It's just that this time you are wrong!" Your mistake lies in the fact that you shouldn't have taken the imperial court's decree as a reason for your price increase. ”
Wang Ke suddenly slapped his hand on the table, raised his voice and asked: "Mei Renxun, to be honest, did you raise the price of the goods you handled on the grounds that the imperial court wanted to charge tariffs?" You'll talk about it when you're ready. ”
"Nope! Xiaomin didn't say that. Mei Renxun was stopped by Wang Ke's angry voice at this time, and rushed out without thinking about it.
Wang Ke likes him to say this the most, as long as he says this, he can be invincible, and now as long as he catches Mei Renxun's sore feet from time to time, he is not afraid that he will not admit his guilt, and this result is much better than Mei Renxun's honest confession.
Wang Ke said coldly: "No? You don't admit it, do you? ”
At this time, Mei Renxun had begun to have beads of sweat on his forehead, and he also understood that since this had been said, it was impossible for him to change, after all, now in the audience, so many people had heard what he had just said, and if he swallowed back the words he said immediately, he would have been defeated without retrial.
Mei Renxun could only stubbornly persevere, gritted his teeth, twisted his neck and said: "Xiaomin has never said it, if the adult has to say that Xiaomin has said it, please come up with evidence!" ”
"Hey, it's strange, in this era, there are still people looking for themselves for evidence, do you start paying attention to evidence now?" Wang Ke said secretly in his heart.
At this time, Wang Ke began to thank the people sent out by Fang Xuanling for their work, which was really solid, if it weren't for the work of these people, he really wouldn't have had any way to take this Mei Renxun now.
Wang Ke lazily waved his hand to the official standing next to him: "Bring the things up!" ”
A servant next to him hurriedly stepped forward and 'handed over' the things he had been holding in his hand to Wang Ke, Wang Ke took out a piece of paper from it, shook it in front of Mei Renxun's eyes and said, "You didn't expect it, the price increase you wrote told it would run to the government." ”
After Wang Ke finished speaking, his face turned straight, and he shouted loudly: "Come on, take this notice to the people in the audience to see if the court has wronged this Boss Mei!" ”
The official hurriedly walked over, took the notice from Wang Ke's hand, walked around the stage, and showed the notice in his hand to the audience. Everyone saw it, and it clearly stated the reason for the price increase, the name of the store, and the date on which the notice was written. For a while, there was another discussion in the audience, but this time it could be heard that it was all condemnation of Mei Renxun.
Wang Ke looked at Mei Renxun, who was now as 'pale' as earth, and asked coldly, "What else do you have to say now?" ”
Mei Renxun really didn't expect that the notice he wrote would fall into the hands of the government, he didn't see this notice in front of the 'door' at the time, and thought that he was run away by the wind, and he didn't care, but he didn't expect that it was the people in the government who took it off for himself, and now it has become evidence for his own conviction.
