Chapter 87: Doing Things
The world is so big that there are no surprises. It is not impossible for pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info to have one or two strange cases, but Chen Fang and Tang Yun didn't expect that there would be more strange ones behind.
A vegetable buyer sued the vegetable seller for missing two catties and found himself a copper plate, but the vegetable seller did not admit it, but said that he not only gave a full scale, but also weighed half a tael more, and wanted to recover the half or two vegetable money with the vegetable buyer.
Well, if this case is strange, there is even more strange in the back, there is actually a passer-by A who came to sue passer-by B, saying that the saliva sprayed on his face when the other party sneezed, and asked for compensation for washing money, but what he never expected was that passer-by B's rebuttal was even more bizarre, saying that the other party's face was too dirty, but fortunately he used saliva to help him wash his face before the other party showed his human appearance, so not only should he not be sentenced to lose money, but he should also let the other party pay for washing his face.
One strange case after another is constantly refreshing Chen Fang and Tang Yun's worldview. At this time, the innocent Tang Yun hadn't realized what was wrong, but Chen Fang saw through the back of these strange cases.
Someone is rectifying Tang Yun, or someone on his side!
With a shrunk of his eyes, Chen Fang suddenly saw a familiar face in the queue of defendants, and he was even more sure of the judgment in his heart.
"Ahem!"
Chen Fang coughed dryly twice, interrupting the spitting plaintiff and defendant in the hall, bowed down and smiled and said to Tang Yun, who looked melancholy and weak: "My lord, have we forgotten something?" β
"What? Forgot something? At this moment, Tang Yun has two big heads, where can he keep up with Chen Fang's thinking, and asked blankly.
"Paper? I don't have a complaint on paper! Chen Fangzuo said in surprise.
"However, Tang Law stipulates that only criminal cases must have a pleading, and ordinary lawsuits like this are not mandatory." Tang Yun was very stupid and naΓ―ve to move out of the Tang Dynasty, Chen Fang looked confused when he heard it, his understanding of the Tang Dynasty was extremely limited, where did he know that in order to allow ordinary people to be treated fairly, there is no need to write pleadings for certain litigation cases, after all, the cost of writing a pleadings is quite a lot, looking at all the cases in the court, if the pleadings are written, no matter which party wins the lawsuit, the compensation cannot afford to pay the cost of writing the pleadings.
Ni Mei's family photo, what else can be done?
Knowing that someone is doing something behind it, but there is no way to solve it, it is tantamount to watching yourself being buried alive in the ground by others, which is a very painful thing. Chen Fang frowned and thought for a while, but he never came up with a good way, wanting Tang Yun to temporarily adjourn the court, but after careful consideration, he found that escaping was not the solution to the problem at all. If these cases are not solved today, they will still be piled up tomorrow, and maybe the people behind them will see the situation, and more inexplicable cases will emerge tomorrow.
But what to do? Chen Fang rolled his eyes, thought about it seriously, and inadvertently saw Lei Dazhuang's water and fire stick in his hand, and his eyes suddenly lit up, but in order to avoid the embarrassment just now, he attached his mouth to Tang Yun's ear and asked softly: "Is there a killing stick now, is it common to all cases?" β
There are two kinds of complaints, one is a small complaint, that is, the kind of small dispute that is not in a hurry to report, which is usually arranged to be handled by the master and master Bo of the Yamen faction on the day of the announcement, and the other is the big complaint, that is, an urgent case, which sounds the drum of grievances. This is a rule that has been handed down since the Han Dynasty had the sound of the drum of grievances.
Of course, the characterization of whether the case is urgent or not is very wide, and it is generally in the hands of the plaintiff, if the plaintiff is willing, his own crop can be broken and he can come to beat the drum to file a complaint, in other words, the plaintiff is willing.
However, although the definition of the case is very broad, it does not mean that there are no rules.
In order to prevent the common people from abusing judicial resources excessively, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, adopted a rule of distributing and charging the army since the end of the Han Dynasty.
Kill the Mighty Stick!
However, any plaintiff who beats the drum of injustice, regardless of whether it is justified or unreasonable, will first hit more than 10 to 20 boards and violently warn those lawbreakers who want to disrupt the judicial mechanism, so as to reduce the current situation of indiscriminate lawsuits.
Without great grievances, ordinary people really don't dare to beat the drum of grievances at will!
Of course, although the killing rod is free from the criminal law, it is always used for the yamen and the punishment of the common people, and to a large extent, there is room for negotiation. Whether to fight or not depends on the county master, the lord said to fight, the yacha picked up the water and fire sticks and rushed upward, the lord said not to fight, the yacha naturally did not move.
And playing is also a very skillful art, each county order has its own hint habits, generally between the lines and in the tone of the hint, if the county order understates to say "hit", that is to make a look for others to see goodbye, if the county order adult face has not changed, the color says "hit", then it is indispensable to eat some flesh and skin, but that's it, it will not hurt the muscles and bones. But if the county magistrate raised his eyebrows and said "hit", it would be terrible.
It is not impossible to be beaten to death if you encounter a black-hearted yacha who is not particular or has received money from the defendant.
All in all, the killing of the power stick in the civil lawsuit can be said to be a daunting existence for all the complainants, and the reason why Chen Fang asked this is to solve the current dilemma by relying on the prestige of the killing stick.
"Yes, of course. But is it really good to do that? Tang Yun had obviously guessed Chen Fang's thoughts, but she had no plans to use this killing stick since the first day she took office.
Do you want to hurt the common people violently today in order to save yourself from your troubles? Tang Yun was really not sure if it was right to do this.
If it were to deal with ordinary people, of course Chen Fang would not be so ruthless, but these people were obviously instigated to make trouble, and Comrade ******, the iron-blooded hero, once said that at the right time, it is a bad thing to counter violence with violence.
Of course, he understood Tang Yun's natural sympathy for the weak, in order to dispel her scruples, and in order to make her feel at ease, Chen Fang attached his mouth to his ear and whispered: "Don't worry, you haven't done anything wrong, take a closer look at whether there are a few familiar faces in the defendant's column?" β
The words aroused Tang Yun's curiosity all of a sudden, she subconsciously looked at the row of defendants, at first she didn't notice anything wrong, but when her eyes swam to the defendant at the back of the queue, her little mouth opened into an O-shape, if it wasn't for Chen Fang pinching her little hand in time, she would have called out.
