First wife's original manuscript

Chapter 74

Zeng Rou shyly smiled: "My husband loves me very much, and I can't bear to see my face washed away with tears, but he really can't investigate this lawsuit, so he let me come to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. There is no law in the Sui Dynasty that the wife of a minister is not allowed to enter the Ministry of Criminal Justice." I know my brother best, so I will present the case and clear his name."

"Mrs. Zeng, please wait a moment."

The guard couldn't deal with Zeng Rou, so he ran back to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice with the pleadings. Recently, the wind in the capital was not in the right direction. What?Send your wife over to avenge your uncle?

Yang Yi secretly knew what Jingzhaofu Yin said, how could Jingzhaofu Yin not give face to the Minister of the Ministry of Officials?How could Zeng Tiancheng be sentenced to be executed?
Could it be that there are people behind this case who Yang Yi dare not offend?
The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice hesitated, hesitated, and people in the officialdom usually considered things comprehensively, so they could think of a very simple and clear thing as complicated. Under Zeng Rou's established strategy, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice obviously had a conspiracy theory.

The most important thing is that Yang Shilang, in order to show the good character of a poor wife who does not go to court, is very kind to Zeng Rou, who was born as a merchant girl.

It's no wonder that outsiders can't understand. Xu Danniang, who manages the Zhuangyuan Mansion, is also low-key and makes a fortune in a muffled voice. It is difficult for outsiders to know the situation in the Zhuangyuan Mansion. In public, he respects Zeng Rou more than anyone else, so outsiders naturally misunderstand that Yang Zhuangyuan can't give up love, but he can't treat responsibility badly... Zeng Rou.

From their point of view, Yang Shilang made Xu Danniang his second wife, and he felt sorry for the savior who made his wife Zeng Shi, so he would compensate her in other ways.

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice wore his beard in confusion, and looked at the pleading paper in front of him. He couldn't ignore this matter. Once he was stabbed in front of the emperor, he wouldn't even plan to sit in this position. He has been given the title, and has a lot of trust in Prince Rui, the son of the abolished prince... The emperor mentioned in public how much the former empress cared for him. It must also be under the first queen, so as to show that the concubines are unshakable.

Xu Cifu... The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment's eyes lit up. The only person who prevented Yang Shilang from clearing up the lawsuit and could hint at Jingzhao's governor was Xu Cifu!

The fact that Xu Cifu dotes on Xu Danniang is known to everyone in the capital. Usually, Xu Cifu seldom talks about Xu Danniang to his daughter-in-law, but to his colleagues, classmates, and subordinates, he always mentions how good Xu Danniang is. It is not difficult to see from his words His love for Xu Danniang.

No matter how small the matter of Xu Danniang is, it is a big matter, while the matter of the concubine's daughter is still a trivial matter. The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice still remembers that when Xu Danniang was ill, Xu Cifu left the government and everything to go to see the concubine in the Zhuangyuan Mansion!
The sweetheart was bullied by a merchant woman, Xu Cifu might not be able to stand it, so he told Jingzhao Prefecture Yin to punish Zeng Tiancheng severely, but he didn't expect that the Zeng family was not easy to mess with, Xu Cifu probably didn't expect Zeng Rou to come to the Ministry of Punishment Sue!
A few days ago, the news of Zeng's father kneeling in front of Xu Cifu's door had already spread throughout the capital. It seemed that Xu Cifu failed to achieve his goal of buying the Zeng family, but aroused even greater resistance from the Zeng family.

The Secretary of the Criminal Ministry said: "Go and inform the Minister of Dali Temple, this lawsuit involves too much, and the person who appealed is the order of the second rank, I think it is better for the three divisions to have a joint trial!"

"As ordered."

The Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Justice understands that Xu Cifu cannot be defended by one person. It is most appropriate to drag a group of people to share the burden. It's easy to lighten his body, it's good if he can keep the position of the second assistant, don't even think about joining the first assistant.

Dali Temple Minister... This person is straightforward and upright. He is the most respectful of monarchs and ministers. At least it won't offend Xu Cifu too much, what if Xu Cifu slows down?
Outside the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Zeng Rou waited patiently. With a combination of false and real punches, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice seemed to be ready to accept the case. Zeng Rou had the joy of achieving the plan, but also felt somewhat regretful. The Minister of the Ministry of Justice did not Given Zeng Rou the chance to go to Fenggu Tower, Zeng Rou has no way to slap Xu Cifu in front of the emperor!

However, the review by the third division is also possible.

Zengfu asked in a low voice, "Daughter, are you sure?"

"Father, don't worry, I know it well."

Hearing the majestic voice of the yamen servant, Zeng Rou closed the fan, tapped the fan bone on the palm of his hand, and smiled confidently at Zengfu: "Wait for my good news."

Taking a deep breath, Zeng Rou walked into the lobby of the Ministry of Justice alone.

The three divisions will try this kind of case, and it can't happen twice a year, and the person who filed the complaint is Yang Shilang's wife, Zeng Shi. Zeng defended her brother in the lobby of the Ministry of Justice to save her brother. The news spread all over the capital in an instant. The common people surrounded the entrance of the Ministry of Punishment Hall with three floors inside and three floors outside.

After hearing the news, the governor of Jingzhao Mansion, who had already sentenced Zeng Tiancheng to be executed, fell down from his chair, propped himself up and said, "This Zeng family is lawless!"

"My lord, the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice asked you to send the file over."

"Could it be that the judge made a mistake?"

The governor of Jingzhao Mansion is deeply concerned. No matter how you look at it, there is no possibility of overturning this case. He has a lot of confidence, and he will go as soon as he goes. He handles it impartially. Who can overturn such an iron case with witnesses and physical evidence? ?

The governor of Jingzhao personally took the dossier to the lobby of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and brought Zeng Tiancheng, who was beaten to pieces, and witnesses.Because he is the prefect, he has a seat in the lobby, but above him sits the Minister of the Ministry of Justice and others, so he dare not move or look around.

When he saw Zeng Rou in a Confucian shirt, he frowned secretly, what kind of trouble is the Zeng family going to make?
"Mr. Zeng, how are you dressed?"

"Returning to your lord, I'd better wear Confucian shirts to defend my brother."

Zeng Rou said unhurriedly, her bright eyes had a dazzling light, even the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, who had interrogated many heinous criminals, was afraid to look at Zeng Rou... Zeng Rou remained calm, obviously she was not The instruments of torture placed in the lobby frightened her, how could she look like a businesswoman in the market?

She seemed intoxicated here, as if she was born to belong to the punishment hall.

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice and the Minister of Dali Temple looked at each other, and they were shocked from each other's eyes. Is Zeng just an ordinary merchant woman?Just a merchant girl who married Yang Shilang with grace?

In court, apart from being calm, the most important thing is aura. The word aura is extremely complicated, and aura represents a lot of hidden power. The aura can even influence others. Zeng Rou deeply understands this way, otherwise she would not be called Queen of justice.

As long as Zeng Rou goes to court, many people will be led by her nose. Few opponents can resist the aura erupted from Zeng Rou, even the opponent's lawyer. In the international court, Zeng Rou can even influence When it comes to the chief justice, there is a big difference between saying one more sentence and saying one less sentence in court.

Others would be afraid of the hall of the Ministry of Justice, be influenced by the people talking at the door, and be frightened by the adults sitting on it, but Zeng Rou felt that the place was not big enough, and there were not enough people!
This is more enjoyable than her negotiating with Zhuge Yun and fighting against the Gu family in her previous life.

The blood in Zeng Rou's veins is boiling, this is her battlefield, where she has built a domain that suffocates others, and no opponent can walk out of her domain unharmed.

"You defend Zeng Tiancheng? Are you a lawyer?"

"If you go back to your lord, I am a lawyer at this time."

Zeng Rou took a deep breath and started, Zeng Rou!
She bowed her hand in a very imposing manner: "The laws of the Sui Dynasty have no requirements for lawyers, and everyone can be a lawyer."

"But lawyers have to be literate first, and the son..."

"My lord, I haven't found the rule that women cannot be lawyers. As for literacy... I have a champion gentleman. In order to help him and keep up with him, I have been learning to read and read. I wrote the pleadings in front of you."

Zeng Rou rolled up her cuffs, raised her head that had never been lowered before, "If you don't believe me, I can write down the second half of the pleading paper in front of you!"

"Is the pleading paper divided into top and bottom?"

"My lord, you will see the second half more clearly."

The three officials sitting on the high ground exchanged eye contact, and the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment said: "Come here, prepare your pen and ink! I want to see the pleading paper written by the champion lady!"

Eyes are important, but words and deeds are equally important.

Zeng Rou only wrote an ordinary pleading paper, and she was waiting for this opportunity to write the pleading paper in court... The pleading paper, which amazed many people and shocked many people's jaws, will hold more than half of the power in her hands.

The characters in this life are the same as the traditional characters in the previous life. Zeng Rou has experienced two lives, and she has practiced calligraphy for more than ten years. She picked up the brush and wrote the pleadings in front of everyone, while writing, she also read aloud.

She gave everyone a feeling of divine help, writing poetry.

The way Zeng Rou writes is both masculine and feminine, and the hairpin lower case is extremely neat. Zeng Rou uses the simplest and most unpretentious words to outline the whole case. Too much rhetoric will affect the central idea .

What the legal letter pays attention to is simple, direct and effective!
As Zeng Rou put down the brush, not only the adults above understood what happened in the case, but also the people watching the excitement outside the door. The people buzzed, "So lawyers should be like this, and they seem to be very confident. Other situations Before the teacher could speak, he was one level lower than the official."

"Yes, yes. It is necessary to hire a lawyer like Mrs. Zeng."

Zeng Rou raised her mouth slightly after hearing this, she should be regarded as the originator of lawyers!However, in a feudal society, the rule of man was above the rule of law, and it was impossible to achieve true fairness.
