This lawsuit is really loud but not rainy, and it ends in an anticlimax. The tone was so high at first, but in the end it turned out to be just a case of corruption.

Those ministers wanted to tell Zhang Fei directly, "Your trick of asking for huge amounts of money and paying it back on the spot is really wonderful. Don't use it next time."

Everything is easy to discuss with everyone.

But they still don't understand Zhang Fei. For Zhang Fei, a lawsuit is never about victory or defeat, but about rights and interests.

As long as he can fight for the maximum rights and interests of the parties involved, whether he wins or loses, Zhang Fei actually doesn't care.

Of course, when litigating in the Northern Song Dynasty, one had to consider one more layer, that is, one's own safety.

He may not win this lawsuit, but he must not lose. If he loses, he may face serious consequences.

Being an ear pen person is a very dangerous profession.

.......

So after Zhang Fei communicated, the Kaifeng Mansion released Niu Beiqing, Feng Nanxi, and Longshan on the spot, and immediately returned the Shi family's house and fields. At the same time, they used the Kaifeng Mansion's decree to cancel Gao Wenyin's status as a maid, and announced that the ticket was sold.

The contract is invalid.

As for the return of the Shi family's money and the fifteen hundred coins, they will be returned to them immediately. With the efficiency of the Song Dynasty, it would not be possible to do this in one and a half years each time. This is of course a shortcut.

And when Zhang Fei brought Feng Nancy and the other three people home, as well as the official document, Gao Wenyin, who had been frightened for many days, couldn't help crying with joy.

It can be said that I hope that the clouds will clear and the moon will shine.

The heart that had been hanging around finally dropped.

Zhang Fei smiled and said: "I hope Madam Gao won't have such a sad face in the future."

Gao Wenyin was startled, her tears stopped, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that he had changed the name of her. She said guiltily: "I have brought a lot of trouble to my benefactor these days. Wen Yin would like to thank my benefactor for this."

Tolerance and care."

Tears gathered in her watery almond-shaped eyes again, but this time they were tears of gratitude.

Zhang Fei just smiled and said: "This is my job. I save a hundred and eighty people like you every year."

Xu Zhiqian rolled her eyes, this person can really brag.

But it didn't expose him.

It’s harmless after all!

At this time, Niu Beiqing suddenly squeezed forward, cupped his fists and saluted, "Back then, I, the big cow, was too blind to recognize Mount Tai, and offended my benefactor. Fortunately, my benefactor ignored the past grievances and helped us clear our grievances. I, the big cow, are here."

I must apologize to my benefactor. If anything happens to my benefactor in the future, no matter how much I tell you, I will never frown even if I go up the mountain of knives or into the sea of ​​fire."

Zhang Fei chuckled and said, "There is no need to go up to the mountain of knives or to the sea of ​​fire. I just hope you can let me live if I encounter you blocking the way and robbing me someday."

Niu Beiqing scratched his head in embarrassment, "I... I'll just tell you how... how did I become a robber."

Zhang Fei smiled and said: "If you don't become a robber, you will really bury your talent."

Shi Tingxiu burst out laughing after hearing this.

Zhang Fei suddenly glanced at Feng Nancy and saw that she had been silent, and suddenly asked: "By the way! What are your plans now?"

They looked at Nancy Feng in unison.

Feng Nanxi had been silent just now, as if she was deeply preoccupied. Seeing Zhang Fei's eyes, she opened her mouth and asked without answering, "May I ask my benefactor, is Judge Liu really the culprit?"

This sentence made their hearts lift.

"about this issue......!"

Zhang Fei frowned: "Actually, I also asked Magistrate Lu, but the clues have been cut off here, and Magistrate Lu also believes that the official silver is not much, and it is unlikely that more people will be involved, or that it will be bigger

official."

Feng Nanxi still expressed doubts: "I have been in a government office and I know this very well. Even if Judge Liu is really the culprit behind the scenes, we have offended many people because of this. Will we suffer retaliation in the future?"

Gao Wenyin listened and became nervous again, "Brother Qi, this... shouldn't be possible, right?"

Nancy Feng frowned and said, "Even if they don't dare to act rashly for the time being, who can guarantee that they won't retaliate against us after this storm has passed? We are just ordinary people after all, and we will never be able to fight them."

Xu Zhiqian, who was on the side, glanced at Zhang Fei secretly, and suddenly said: "Zhang San, I think what Brother Feng Qi said is reasonable. Do you have a way to keep them safe?"

Zhang Fei said depressedly: "How can I protect this? I am just a smart person. The only thing I can do is to help them win this lawsuit. It is not easy to be able to do this."

Feng Nanxi hurriedly said: "My benefactor, I am definitely not blaming my benefactor. We can't repay our benefactor for his great kindness. I'm just worried about it."

Xu Zhiqian said again: "I do have an idea, I wonder if it will work?"

Gao Wenyin hurriedly asked, "What's your idea, Mrs. Xu?"

Xu Zhiqian suddenly looked at Feng Nancy, "Brother Feng Qi, what are your plans next?"

Feng Nanxi shook her head and said, "I have no plans at the moment. I hope Madam Xu can point out a clear path for us?"

Xu Zhiqian said to Zhang Fei again: "Zhang San, aren't you in need of helpers right now? Why not just keep them? With you here, the government will not dare to retaliate against them easily."

Feng Nancy and Shi Tingxiu couldn't help but look at Zhang Fei expectantly.

After this incident, they all fell in love with Zhang Fei and treated him like a general in Kaifeng Mansion using it as a latrine.

It would be best to stay by his side.

Zhang Fei hesitated for a moment and asked: "Are you willing...!"

Before he could finish speaking, Nancy Feng and Shi Tingxiu clasped their fists and said, "We brothers are willing to be driven by our benefactor and repay our benefactor for saving his life."

After realizing it, Niu Beiqing also quickly clasped his fists.

Only Longshan remained silent.

"Okay then! Just stay here."

Saying that, Zhang Fei suddenly looked at Gao Wenyin again.

"I...."

Gao Wenyin seemed a little hesitant.

She originally wanted to go with her late husband, but then she promised Zhang Fei not to seek death again, but she never thought about the future and didn't know what to do.

But then I thought about it, Zhang Fei had a great kindness to her, and now he was willing to take in Shi Tingxiu and the others. I was very grateful in my heart. I just felt that I owed Zhang Fei a lot and hoped to pay back some, so I bowed and said, "Wen Yin

I am also willing to serve as my benefactor’s servant and repay my benefactor’s kindness.”

Zhang Fei said: "Actually, I really want to keep Gao Niangzi. Since Gao Niangzi came, my house has been well taken care of. If Gao Niangzi is willing to stay, I will be very happy and serve as a slave. Gao Niangzi, you can do it yourself."

It depends, but on the surface, can we continue to maintain a relationship as a couple?"

"ah?"

Gao Wenyin's face turned red and she looked a little uneasy.

Zhang Fei hurriedly explained: "This is also my fault. Those people came to congratulate me and said that my quatrains brought the beauty home, which was a good story. I also... followed their words and said a few shameless words.

If I let them know the truth, I'm afraid they will laugh at me all day long."

Gao Wenyin was very confused and secretly glanced at Shi Tingxiu.

Shi Tingxiu didn't know what to do.

Xu Zhiqian suddenly said: "Sister Gao, I have something to say, I don't know whether I should say it or not?"

Gao Wenyin hurriedly said: "Mrs. Xu, please tell me?"

Xu Zhiqian said: "I just think that in the eyes of others, you are already Mrs. Zhang, and as far as they know, Zhang San is also seeking justice for his wife. If the wife suddenly reveals that all this is false.

I'm afraid someone will slander Madam and say that Madam is just taking advantage of Zhang San, which will only make things more troublesome. Since Madam has decided to stay in the Zhang family, rather than relinquishing this identity, it is better to put it aside first to avoid any complications."

However, Gao Wenyin's heart was still with the historian, and according to etiquette and law, Shi Tingxiu should have made the decision on this matter.

Shi Tingxiu had no idea. He was really having a hard time with this matter, so he looked at Nancy Feng.

Feng Nanyin strongly agreed with Xu Zhiqian's point of view. No matter what the facts were, in everyone's eyes, Gao Wenyin was already Mrs. Zhang. Going back would damage Gao Wenyin's reputation and cause a lot of trouble.

Shi Tingxiu nodded slightly.

Gao Wenyin then said: "Okay! Just...just follow what your grace said."

After they went out, Zhang Fei suddenly looked at Xu Zhiqian and said, "Thank you so much, Madam Xu."

Xu Zhiqian hummed softly: "Even if I don't say anything, they won't dare to leave you, just like Li Si did back then. I think the key is that if they stay with you, it will be good for you and them. And it's also good for them."

I can make you owe me a favor, but Zhang Sanlang is not that easy to do now."

Zhang Fei chuckled and said, "I owe you Xu family favors, and I'm afraid I won't be able to pay them back in this lifetime, so why bother, Mrs. Xu?"

"That's owed to my father, not mine." Xu Zhiqian said.

Zhang Fei nodded and said, "Okay! Just think that I owe you a favor."

Xu Zhiqian's guess was absolutely correct. Zhang Fei had already thought about keeping these people by his side, but he knew that these people could not live without him. Feng Nancy's worries were not unreasonable. There were many people in this commander-in-chief.

The losses were heavy, and if given the chance, the government would definitely retaliate against them.

There is nothing you can do about Zhang San, so why are you afraid of you, Shi Er?

Therefore, he behaved very generously at first.
