When this voice was shouted out, it seemed as if the whole world became quiet!
Lu Gong frowned.
Because according to the ancients' rhetoric, when it comes to that point, one should stop at that point and not say everything.
This is not something a smart person would say.
Zhang Fei is obviously not a stupid person!
as expected!
The old men in the hospital couldn't stand it anymore after hearing this. Do you really think we don't dare to do anything to you? Or do you think we are too old to lift a knife
It can be seen that Wang Anshi, Sima Guang, Tang Jie and other great men were all unmoved and could only give up, but they still hummed a few times to express their dissatisfaction.
Wang Anshi was not annoyed, but said with emotion: "If I had a son, I would want him to be like Zhang Sanlang!"
This was a high compliment, and he knew in his heart that Zhang Fei was only saying this on Lin Fei's behalf.
How many people in the world dare to say this
Sima Guang was curious and asked, "I wonder where he learned this kind of speech skills from."
What was Zhang Fei asking after going through so much trouble
In fact, it is telling everyone that Lin Fei has sufficient motives to commit the crime!
The key point is that Lin Fei couldn't help but tell his motive for committing the crime.
Sima Guang felt inferior to this questioning technique, and he had never heard of it before.
Moreover, Kaifeng Prefecture, as a judicial department, had not thought of many details. For example, who was Li Yong? Lu Gong had never heard of this person.
Cao Ping, who was hiding at the side door, also breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was only indirect proof that Lin Fei definitely had a motive for committing the crime, it at least proved that Zhang Fei was not the other party's man!
... ...
"Zhang San."
Lu Gong suddenly shouted.
"Xiaomin is here."
"You've said so much, but you haven't proved that Cao Dongdong is innocent." Lu Gong said evasively.
He had to quickly get back to the topic. Even if there was corruption in the three yamen, it had nothing to do with this case.
The mention of Cao Dongdong seemed to wake up the crowd watching at the door, and there was another round of cursing at Cao Dongdong, even worse than before.
Are they specifically bullying honest people
She fought hard for the country, and it's fine if she didn't get a promotion, but you playboys are trying to flirt with her wife. This is simply too much and outrageous!
They did not realize that Lin Fei already had a motive for committing the crime and was worthy of suspicion. Instead, they felt more sympathetic towards Lin Fei, so they vented all their anger on Cao Dongdong.
Cao Dongdong felt so aggrieved. Why did he scold me again? I didn’t say anything!
"Silence! Silence! Silence!"
Lu Gong banged the gavel several times, and the people outside the door gradually quieted down.
Zhang Fei asked Lin Fei very gently: "Can you continue?"
Lin Fei nodded, but the look in his eyes when he looked at Zhang Fei became a little complicated, as if mixed with a hint of gratitude.
Zhang Fei raised a provocative smile, as if to remind him that it was okay to be serious. I was not going to use this emotional card to coax you into confessing. That would be too shameless. Then he asked, "I heard that Master Lin can drink quite well."
Lin Fei was encouraged by Zhang Fei and cheered up again. He said with fighting spirit: "Not bad."
"good?"
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "More than okay! According to other coaches, Coach Lin's alcohol tolerance is one of the best in the Imperial Guards. No one can drink more than him."
Lin Fei said: "I have never competed before, so I don't know."
Zhang Fei asked with a smile: "At least when you drank with those coaches, no one got drunk before you."
Lin Fei said: "So what?"
Zhang Fei said, "According to your confessions, on the night of the crime, you, Cao Yanei, and Wu Yuhou drank together. Why did Cao Yanei still have the energy to flirt with your wife when you and Wu Yuhou were drunk? As far as I know, Cao Yanei's alcohol tolerance is far less than yours."
After these words were spoken, Lu Gongzhe and Huang Gui frowned at the same time.
They hadn't thought of this detail at all.
Lin Fei snorted, "Drinking together doesn't mean that everyone drinks the same amount. I drink much more than Cao Yanei."
Cao Dongdong immediately became anxious, "What do you mean by a lot? You didn't drink much more than me that night."
Zhang Fei looked at Cao Dongdong unhappily, "I didn't ask you a question!"
Cao Dongdong glanced at Zhang Fei resentfully and remained silent.
"It seems that Cao Yanei indeed drinks less than Instructor Lin." Zhang Fei nodded with a smile, and then asked, "I heard that Instructor Lin went to the Lu's Wine Shop across the street to get some wine that night?"
Lin Fei nodded.
Zhang Fei took out an account book and said, "Due to our dynasty's liquor monopoly system, any liquor store has very clear records of the sale of liquor. This is the account book of Lu's liquor store that day. It clearly records that Master Lin asked for two jars of liquor that night."
Lu Gong asked: "What does this mean?"
Zhang Fei said: "According to what other coaches said, it would not be a problem for Coach Lin to drink a whole jar by himself. The three of them drank that night, and even if Coach Lin drank a whole jar by himself, he was still far from being drunk and lying on the table."
Lu Gong said, "This is all your speculation. They themselves don't remember exactly how much each drank that night, so I'm afraid it's impossible to verify it."
Huang Gui couldn't help himself and immediately stood up: "There is no specific scale for this alcohol consumption, how can it be used as evidence?"
How can you prove that Lin Fei won’t get drunk after drinking a jar of wine? There is no way to prove it!
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Although it is against the rules, I don't mind Huang Zhubu raising this question, because even if Huang Zhubu didn't mention it, I would have explained it clearly. I am not trying to use this as evidence, I am just raising a doubt, that's all."
Doubts
Huang Gui said nothing.
Zhang Fei then asked Lin Fei, "How long have Master Lin and Cao Yanei known each other?"
Lin Fei was slightly stunned, "About three years!"
Zhang Fei said: "It should be three years and seven months. Am I right?"
Lin Fei thought about it, but he couldn't remember clearly, "Almost."
But I felt a little nervous because I had never seen a lawsuit like this. You know my business better than I do.
Zhang Fei asked again: "I wonder how you two met each other?"
Lin Fei said: "He is the son of the deputy commander of the infantry, and he likes to dance with sticks, so he often comes to the training ground to play. Seeing that I am good at martial arts, he asked me to teach him how to use sticks, so I know him."
Zhang Fei nodded and said, "How is the relationship?"
Lin Fei said: "Not bad."
Zhang Fei asked again: "Have they always been good, or have they only become good friends in the past six months?"
Lin Fei said: "It has always been good."
Zhang Fei nodded and asked, "Since they have a good relationship, then Yanei must have visited Master Lin's home many times!"
Lin Fei thought for a moment and said, "Not a lot."
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Really? Then why has Yanei visited the coach's home twelve times in the past three months, an average of at least four times a month?"
Lin Fei asked: "Is this a lot?"
Zhang Fei smiled, "Whether it's more or less depends on how you compare it. As far as I know, Yanei and you have known each other for more than three years, but in the first three years, Cao Dongdong visited your home only twice. Most of the time, Cao Yanei invited you to his home for dinner, or to eat together in a restaurant."
Lin Fei's eyes flashed with guilt: "I just think it's not good to always let the young master treat us."
"Yeah?"
Zhang Fei said: "But in these twelve times, at least eight times it was the yamen who bought the wine. What's the difference between this and him treating us?"
When Sima Guang and Wang Anshi heard this, they both showed an expression of disbelief.
You have to know that Zhang Fei was talking about other people's affairs, not his own experiences, so he had to ask about these details first. In other words, he had expected Lin Fei to answer like this in advance.
It’s so thin!
Even Wang Anshi was wondering how he came up with this idea
Lin Fei said: "Yanei insisted on buying it, and I have no choice."
This statement is obviously somewhat self-contradictory.
Wang Anshi and Sima Guang both knew that Lin Fei was almost unable to hold on.
Zhang Fei did not delve into the matter further, and suddenly asked, "I heard that when Master Lin went on his second expedition, his wife and children died of dystocia during childbirth."
Lin Fei frowned immediately, "What does this have to do with you?"
This question made Lu Gongzhe a little dizzy, "Zhang San, what are you asking?"
Zhang San immediately said to Lu Gong: "Don't worry, magistrate, I will explain everything later."
This sentence again!
Lu Gong was really a little mad, "If you don't explain clearly later, I will definitely punish you." He thought, it’s not okay to ask like this, I have to set some rules next time.
"Yes! Xiaomin will definitely explain it clearly."
Zhang Fei bowed to Lu Gongzhe, and then said to Lin Fei: "Since your first wife passed away, you have not married for nearly ten years. Until the beginning of this year, you suddenly married a beautiful wife from another place."
"Yes." Lin Fei nodded, but his confidence was obviously not as strong as before.
Zhang Fei said: "It was after you married your beautiful wife that you began to frequently invite Yanei to your home for drinks."
Lu Gong opened his eyes and began to look at Lin Fei with a scrutinizing look.
This detail is fatal!
If the explanation is not clear, then it will be difficult to say.
Lin Fei defended himself, "Before, I was the only one at home, so it was inconvenient for me to entertain guests. Now that I have a good wife at home, what's the problem with inviting friends?"
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "There is no problem, but there are more than 20 coaches who are on good terms with Cao Dongdong, and their relationship is not less than yours. However, only Coach Lin frequently invited Cao Dongdong to banquets after the marriage, while the others are all well hidden!"
Cao Dongdong was very annoyed when he heard this, "What do you mean by that? Ben... ..!"
"you shut up!"
Zhang Fei glared at him and said to Lin Fei, "What's even more puzzling is that Master Lin only invited Cao Dongdong and Wu Yuhou to his home for dinner. As far as I know, during this period, Master Lin also invited other masters to dinner several times, but without exception, they all ate in restaurants. I wonder how Master Lin explains it?"
A bean-sized bead of sweat flowed from Lin Fei's temples. The questions asked by the other party were all beyond his expectations. "I... I just don't want others to think that I am trying to curry favor with Cao Yanei, so I invited Cao Yanei to my house for dinner."
His words were already a little stammering.
Lu Gong was looking at Lin Fei with a frown, completely ignoring Cao Dongdong who was feeling aggrieved.
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "So when Cao Yanei invites you to his restaurant for dinner, you don't need to worry about being thought of as trying to curry favor with Cao Yanei."
Lin Fei was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
Old man Tang Jie, who had always supported Lin Fei, was wiping his sweat at this moment.
It’s winter now!
Zhang Fei did not press the issue, and continued, "In his confession, Master Lin did not seem to have given any specific details about Madam Ling's origins and life experience."
Lin Fei said excitedly: "What does my wife's background have to do with this case?"
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Whether it is related or not, I will know after I ask Madam Ling."
As he said this, he bowed to Lu Gongzhe and said, "Your Excellency the Governor, if possible, I hope to summon Madam Lin to the court to testify."
Before Lu Gongzhe could say anything, Lin Fei suddenly said, "No need! I did everything. I was the one who designed the blackmail to extort Cao Yanei. It has nothing to do with Wu Yuhou and my wife."
