When Yang Fan spoke, Chen Dong was silent.

It's not that Chen Dong is still calm in the face of the questioning of a small character and a layman in the law, but because this is the rule.

Yang Fan's statement is a question of him, whether it is questioning or impeachment, as long as the chief is present and the other party's words are said to the chief, then he cannot immediately refute it before the other party finishes his words and the chief asks questions.

It's the same in the court, if there is a case of imperial history suing you, you can only listen to it from the sidelines, even if what he says is all nonsense that doesn't exist at all, before he finishes speaking and the emperor asks, you can only keep quiet, and you can't only say that the other party is only halfway through, you just jump out with a "sigh", blushing and starting to spit on the other party.

Taking advantage of the time of Yang Fan's statement, Chen Dong was also anxiously thinking about the wording.

At this time, how could he still not understand that Yang Fan had been pretending to be a pig for nearly a month, and now he was going to start eating tigers. Therefore, Chen Dong's reaction was also extremely cautious.

Chen Dong thought about it carefully, and arched his hand to Cui Yuanzong: "Squire, if the lower official makes this judgment, if you look at it from the law alone, it is naturally a little inappropriate. However, ......, Xia Guan has been in the Department of Justice for many years, how can he not even be familiar with such a law? The judgment was made by the lower officials after careful consideration. ”

Cui Yuanzong smiled slightly and said, "You speak!" ”

Chen Dong glanced at Yang Fan contemptuously and said, "The law is nothing more than human affection. This case is not a simple homicide case, but a mother-in-law who disciplined her daughter-in-law and shot too hard, resulting in death. From the perspective of filial piety, the relationship between parents is greater than the relationship between husband and wife. In this case, Chang Lin has lost his wife, and if he kills his mother because of his wife, isn't this against nature and filial piety? Moreover, Chang Lin's mother had no murderous intentions, but it was a mistake, and she was old, so the next official sentenced her to reduce her guilt by one degree. ”

He smiled. added another sentence lightly: "This case has been submitted to the squire, since the squire has approved the judgment of the lower official, I believe he also understands the painstaking efforts of the lower official to promote filial piety!" ”

Cui Yuanzong stroked his beard, smiled noncommittally, turned to Yang Fan again, and asked, "What does Yang Langzhong think of Chen Langzhong's explanation?" ”

Yang Fan said calmly: "Xia Guan thinks it's ridiculous! ”

"Oh?"

Cui Yuanzong laughed twice and said, "Tell me your truth!" ”

Yang Fan said: "The law is nothing more than human feelings. Yang completely agrees with this. Advocating filial piety, Yang fully agrees with this! However, the lower officials believe that the relationship between favors is not the same as the abuse of favors. Advocating filial piety, not in the name of filial piety, do things that are against humanity and do things that are against humanity. Otherwise, it is pseudo-filial piety! ”

If you simply talk about the law, Yang Fan's understanding of jurisprudence cannot surpass that of Chen Dong, who has been working in the judiciary for most of his life, but when it comes to the benefits of his tongue. He is not under the other party at all, the big hole dug by the other party. was gently and skillfully bypassed by his words.

The "pit" dug by the other party is "filial piety".

Look at the fact that the dignity of the law is inviolable all day long, has it been done? What was the situation more than 1,000 years ago? It is a pure society ruled by man, and power is greater than law! And these people who hold power put filial piety at the head of all virtues.

If Yang Fan is a legal fighter and shouts that the law cannot be violated, since the law stipulates that he should be hanged, then the old woman will resolutely not let go, then he can pack up and go home. This lawsuit was fought in front of Wu Zetian, and he didn't want to win. Which is the life and death of an old woman, the maintenance of filial piety, and the promotion of filial piety?

Yang Fan said: "Judging from the confession of the Chang family, Mrs. Cheng is not at fault. Seeing that it was the man surnamed Pan who deliberately designed the pit, it was Chang Lin himself who was addicted to gambling and owed a huge debt, but the old woman of the Chang family was angry with her daughter-in-law and beat an innocent woman to death! ”

Speaking of this, Yang Fan felt miserable in his heart.

He got the murder case that had been reviewed by the Criminal Department the day before yesterday, and this case was concluded yesterday, so the case file he got in advance did not include this case, he only knew such a murder case at this time, thinking that the woman he saw on the night of Qixi was innocent and wronged, and was beaten to death by his unreasonable mother-in-law, his mood was agitated, and it was difficult to calm down.

Yang Fan arched his hand and said: "Squire, whether you are a parent or not, you will never commit a crime, or you can kill your children for life?" I don't have this article in the laws of the Great Zhou. There are no parents in the world, that is for their children. It is Chang Lin who should practice filial piety, so Chang Lin does not tell him, that is human nature. Chang Lin's son Chang Zhiyuan sued his grandmother for beating his mother, which is also human nature.

And this case was indignant by the people in the market, sued Fang Zheng and Wuhou, and then reported to Luoyang Mansion by them, which has nothing to do with Chang Lin and his son Chang Zhiyuan. What is the Division? The imperial court weishenme wants to set up a legal department yamen? Isn't it just to manage the injustices of the world? Isn't it to appeal to the law for grievances that the people cannot resolve on their own, and the court will give them justice? Chen Langzhong is not the son of the arrogant old woman, who is he doing filial piety for? And with the life of the Cheng family's lady, who is generous! ”

Yang Fan put his sleeves up, and his voice shook the roof tiles: "Therefore, the lower officials think that Chen Langzhong's false name of filial piety has caused the innocent to die in vain, and the punishment is unfair, and he should be retried!" ”

Yang Fan's words were loud, and the words zuihou faintly had the sound of gold and stone, which pierced people's hearts. As soon as he said that, everyone in the council hall was moved, and in the silence, no one was silent for a long time.

After a long time, Cui Yuanzong took a long breath and said in a deep voice: "Chen Langzhong and Yang Langzhong each have their own words, and this official is not easy to be arbitrary. Let's discuss this case...... Reconsideration? ”

Chen Dong sat there, sneering and showing a slight disdain.

Yang Fan's words sounded quite touching, but the people present were all bureaucrats who had been up and down in the sea for many years, not those uninformed street people. In officialdom, which person does not first put the word "profit" in the middle of the matter and weighs it again and again?

Will anyone agree with Yang Fan's opinion?

Yang Fan? What's that! Will someone risk offending him and side with Yang Fan?

Chen Dong gently pursed the corners of his mouth, picked up the water cup on the desk, the water was warm, it was not hot, he still blew a few times, then raised his eyelids slightly, and glanced at Yang Fan lightly, the taste of provocation was extremely strong.

"Ahem!"

Sun Yuxuan coughed lightly and said, "Squire." According to the lower officials, since this case is still controversial, it may as well ...... Retrial and first trial! ”

Chen Dong was stunned for a moment, and glanced at him with some surprise: "This wall grass, how can you have an opinion today?" ”

Sun Yuxuan smiled, with a harmless expression on his face, as if he was playing a round.

That day, he had already seen Yang Fan's connections, and he had already calculated clearly. At this time, helping Yang Fan say a word, for Yang Fan, it is a charcoal in the snow. If Yang Fan can become a trend, he will have many friends and multiple paths.

Now Chen Dong has the upper hand, if he stands on Chen Dong's side, it will be just icing on the cake, at most he will turn around and change Chen Dong's good face, what else can he get? If you help Yang Fan play a round at this time and Yang Fan still loses, because today's move is not as significant to Chen Dong as it is to Yang Fan, it is just that it will not be harmonious in the future, so it will not anger Chen Dong too much.

Yan Xiaojun is the same as him. just hesitated a little in his heart, and was preempted by Sun Yuxuan. It is impossible for him to be as calm and light as Sun Yuxuan when he speaks again, so he is a little annoyed in his heart. He didn't know that the reason why Sun Yuxuan spoke first was because he drank Yang Fan's free wine at noon every day, and he was a little embarrassed to hide behind.

He coughed twice with his mouth covered, and also said to Cui Yuanzong: "Squire, human life is related to the sky, and the lower officials think." For the sake of prudence, it is good to retry the trial. ”

Except for Cui Yuanzong, who is a waiter, there are a total of five langs here. Now Yang Fan and Chen Dong have clearly stated their attitudes, Sun Yuxuan and Yan Xiaojun have agreed to the retrial, and three of Wulang's middle schools have agreed to the retrial, regardless of whether Pi Erding expresses his position or not, this case is destined to be retried.

Pi Erding really didn't want to express his position, he was Cui Yuanzong's person, the fight between Yang Fan and Chen Dongzhi, in his opinion, was a dog eating a dog, it didn't matter who bit who killed someone, it was best for the two of them to finish at the same time.

Cui Yuanzong was secretly shocked in his heart: "This Yang Fan, what a good means!" When did I actually win over Sun Yuxuan and Yan Xiaojun, and I didn't even notice it. ”

Cui Yuanzong secretly cautioned, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then this case will be retried!" ”

Chen Dong didn't expect Sun Yuxuan and Yan Xiaojun to help Yang Fan speak, these two wall grasses have taken refuge in him since Cui Yuanzong entered the main criminal department, but their refuge is only to obey Cui Yuanzong's arrangement, and they don't pull Cui Yuanzong's hind legs, but they have never taken the lead for Cui Yuanzong and felt sorry for themselves, and they can't think of today......

Chen Dong thought anxiously in his heart: "Could it be that Cui Yuan has never been able to defeat me, and has the intention of using Yang Fan to make an enemy of me, he is high up, and he can sit back and reap the profits?" ”

heard Cui Yuanzong say that the case was going to be remanded for retrial, and Chen Dong was also angry, and said stiffly: "Shilang, Chen's sentence has its own basis." Yang Langzhong said that Chen did not dare to agree, even if the case was remanded for retrial, Chen would still be so judged! ”

Cui Yuanzong said with a smile: "Yang Langzhong has objections, so he will naturally send Yang Langzhong for retrial!" ”

Chen Dong was stunned for a moment, and regretted it in his heart: "This old fox actually took the opportunity to bite me." ”

Cui Yuanzong has been restrained by him since he entered the Criminal Department, and now he is in a position, his heart is happy, and he got up with a smile and said: "Okay, there is too much delay today, let's stop here." The rest of the dossier will be discussed in the next ten years. With that, he flicked his sleeves and walked away.

"This old dog, he did it on purpose! Use Yang Fan to fight with me, no matter who wins or loses, he will clean up the mess! ”

Chen Dong returned to his official room and immediately scolded, those scribes and yacha stood in the outer hall, knowing that he was scolding the main hall, so they had to pretend to be ignorant.

At this moment, Luo Ling ran in with a smoke, and he naturally knew about Chen Dong's deflatedness, but he actually looked like he was smiling.

"Lang Zhong, Lang Zhong, something big has happened!"

Luo Ling tiptoed to Chen Dong's ear with small steps, and muttered, Chen Dong was stunned and asked, "Really?" ”

Luo Ling nodded and said, "It's true!" ”

Chen Dong laughed "sneering", and said sadly: "You want to use this case to reduce my prestige Chen?" It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and now this case has become a hot potato, if you want to throw it to me, I won't take it! ”
