I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

As a witness, Ma Zhou was naturally filled with emotion.

It is precisely because of this kind of emotion and the embarrassing seats on both sides of him that he basically spent the past few years in Korea, and even his wife and children were taken to Pyongyang by him. The appearance of staying in Goryeo for a lifetime.

But this time he had to return to the sad place of Chang'an City, because it was naturally impossible for Zhang Nuo to come back from the Indochina Peninsula just because of a small lawsuit.

But the matter has become so big that it has been spread everywhere, even if it is for the face of Prince Qin's mansion and respect for the law, Zhang Nuo has to arrange for someone to come over.

And Qin Wangfu's chief history, isn't he mainly dealing with all external affairs of Qin Wangfu.So, Ma Zhou just came back.

At this moment, Ma Zhou stood here in the court and felt that the whole Chang'an City seemed a little strange!

He hadn't been back for a long time, and he thought that the city would not change much, but in fact, the final result was that he almost lost his way.

It's not that the roads in Chang'an City are too troublesome, it's quite easy to walk in Chang'an City. After all, the horizontal and vertical chessboard arrangement allows individuals to figure out the direction in broad daylight.

He found that there were too many buildings in Chang'an that he didn't know and was familiar with, and even the clothes, speech and behavior of the passers-by on the street were quite different from before.

Ma Zhou originally thought that he was at the forefront of this era. After all, Koryo was famous for its advanced scientific research, but when he returned to Chang'an City, he discovered that he was actually a bumpkin.

If Goryeo is the country's most important weapon and the industrial core of the Tang Dynasty, then Chang'an City has now become the fashion capital and cultural capital of the entire Tang Dynasty.

Looking at Chang'an City, which was changing with each passing day and almost no longer familiar to him, Ma Zhou sighed slightly, turned his head and walked into the court.

He has nothing to say, and he has nothing to complain about. He is not a teenager who has not been beaten by society and does not know the true face of society.

If you make a mistake, you have to recite it yourself. There is no way to do it. In other words, his current state does not look like that, it seems to be quite miserable, but in fact, he does not know much about his current situation. People secretly envy him.

So he has nothing to complain about, maybe it would be a good arrangement to be the chief history of Qin Wangfu for a lifetime?

There are a lot of messy thoughts in my head, which is a bit different from the usual situation. Maybe it is the emotion brought about by revisiting the old place, but I still have to go back to work after all.

Ma Zhou looked at the young judge in front of him, and felt that he looked familiar, but before he could speak, the other party greeted him first.

"Ma Changshi, long time no see. It's been more than five years since I left Lantian City!"

Hearing the other party mention Lantian City, Ma Zhou also slowly remembered that this person seemed to be one of the most outstanding students in the law training class organized by His Royal Highness King Qin of Lantian City, but he did not expect that he had already become a judge.

But embarrassingly, Ma Zhou couldn't remember his name.

But for officials, talking nonsense when meeting people is already a basic skill, how could this embarrassing situation happen.

Although Ma Zhou was not in the court, he was still a high-ranking official, so he naturally mastered this basic skill.

Therefore, he skillfully chatted on the topic of the other party, the customs of Lantian City, a little anecdote during the training, and the embarrassing stories of some teachers and students whose names he still remembers.

In fact, the other party probably also felt that Ma Zhou had forgotten his name, but as an adult, what I believe in is that as long as I don't feel embarrassed, everyone will not be embarrassed.

After the judge calmly told a certain story and successfully used his friend's words to bring out his name, Ma Zhou finally remembered who this was.

Of course, this kind of conversation can't be too long, after all, everyone has things to do.

Ma Zhou turned around and asked about some arrangements for the trial later!

This is Ma Zhou. After all, he is here on behalf of Prince Qin's mansion. If you think of the other defendants coming to the court for trial, you will be received by your own judge. You are probably dreaming.

And the judge had obviously studied the case for a long time, and explained the whole case to Ma Zhou without any hesitation.

In fact, it can be summed up in one sentence, Prince Qin's Mansion is sure to win.

In fact, this is the problem with the plaintiff's appeal. How could a little girl like Su Yuqing be particularly proficient in the law? She was full of indignation at the time, and the reason for suing was that the Qin Palace stole and appropriated her family's ancestral prescription.

How could such a thing be won?Because you not only have to prove that this prescription belongs to your family, but you also have to produce evidence to prove that the Qin Palace arranged for someone to steal your family's prescription.

However, if the request is changed to say that the Prince Qin's Mansion monopolizes the prescription and his family should also enjoy the benefits of the prescription, then it is actually much simpler.

Chapter 901 End of Trial

Sometimes the law is so literal and complicated, but everyone hopes that the more rigorous the better, because only strictness will have fewer loopholes, and fewer loopholes can better protect the interests and rights of more people.

But over time, the law has become a game for a very small number of people.

The laws of Datang have been changing in the past few years, with more and more detailed classifications, more and more clauses, more and more standardized writing, and more and more rigorous procedures, but at the same time, it has brought about almost all legal professions. Those who cannot relax study every day.

Because if you are not careful, you may fall into the trap of others, and eventually trap the agent with yourself.

Su Yuqing knew that she needed to find a lawyer after suing the impeachment suit, but her family is only a small family now and cannot afford top-notch lawyers. Those lawyers cannot be hired with money. The case at hand There are too many, and they are all big cases. If you don't have a certain network, no one will see them.

So what she hired was just a new lawyer who had just obtained a lawyer's qualification certificate from Lantian City, and the biggest difference between a new lawyer and a barrister was not knowledge, but experience.

Of course, if someone insists on saying that experience is also a kind of knowledge, that's fine too!

But at least the lawyer that Su Yuqing hired was absolutely inexperienced. Maybe it was because facing the behemoth of Prince Qin's Mansion, he still couldn't bear to help an unreasonable attorney.

The trial came very quickly. The procedure of a place like the court is quite strict, and there is no room for sloppyness.

The original plaintiff was Su Yuqing, but when the trial actually started, Su Liangyu and Su Yuqing both stood on the plaintiff's seat.

Su Liangyu finally fulfilled the promise he had made to his daughter before, and came with him. Just looking at his pale face, he didn't look like he was in good health, and he didn't know if he could survive.

The trial this time was a public trial, and since the city was already full of disturbances before, there were extraordinarily many people who came to hear the trial this time, and there were all kinds of teachings and all kinds of things, and the seats were full.

Ma Zhou sat calmly in the dock, calm and relaxed, without the slightest sense of being sued in court, and the contrast with the plaintiff's feeling of constant anxiety was not too strong.

If you just look at this scene, I'm afraid it's a classic TV series where "the defendant is vicious, heinous, bullying others and suppressing the miserable plaintiff, and finally the plaintiff's family background, skillful medical skills and kindness seek the help of a noble person to uphold justice and find a beautiful woman to make a marriage." The script is coming out.

But in fact, the entire trial process was uneventful, and everything seemed to be going through a formality. Su Yuqing did not speak the whole time. After all, in the process of presenting evidence, the plaintiff had to explain the reasons for her appeal. Her father knew better than her how to prove that the prescription was from her family. ancestral.

And the Palace of the King of Qin is also very simple. Ma Zhou is also used to the way of the Palace of Qin now, and he took out a lot of documents after changing hands. A lot of signatures and various reports on it have explained in detail how the prescription is. It was researched and verified by a bunch of people.

It contains not only human evidence, but also a detailed derivation process, and even derivative research on this prescription, etc. It can be said that people with no basic knowledge can't even read it fluently.

In the end, the court pronounced the verdict on the spot that Su Yuqing and Su Liangyu sued the Qin Palace for maliciously stealing and occupying the Su family's secret recipe.

Su Liangyu's father and daughter knew clearly before coming here that they could not win this lawsuit, but when the verdict was finally pronounced, they still couldn't stand it.

After all, judging from the situation in the arena, those pointers would probably be with them for a long time.

Seeing that the matter was over, Ma Zhou didn't care. After all, he knew that this was just a formality. It's not that the Qin Palace is powerful, but that the Qin Palace really has a clear conscience.

Ma Zhou thought about Zhang Nuo's arrangement before, tidied up his clothes, walked up to Su Liangyu and said,

"Doctor Su, Your Highness asked me to tell you that since you can prove that this prescription is passed down in your family, you'd better come to the Medical Research Institute tomorrow with the evidence you just presented in court!"

"After we have reviewed these things, we will transfer your share of the benefits to you, and at the same time, we will add your name on the patent side!"

Hearing what Ma Zhou said, Su Liangyu immediately became excited as if he was in a desperate situation. The heavens have eyes, and he didn't expect that after going around for so long, he could still get such a treatment.

In fact, what he desires is such a proof to his old Su family.

Seeing Su Liangyu was a little excited, Ma Zhou nodded and left without saying anything after confirming that he understood.

He finally came back, and of course he had to take a look around after the matter was over. As for the matter on Su Liangyu's side, he didn't need to do anything on purpose, he just had to bring a word, and the rest belonged to the Qin Palace. The staff do it.

And after Ma Zhou left, the entire trial site also left in twos and threes, discussing some things they had just heard while walking.

For them, they naturally didn't expect to see Zhang Nuo at the trial site, but it was very rare to see Ma Zhou, the governor of Qin Wangfu.

Maybe there is no need for tomorrow, but this afternoon in Chang'an City, there will be a few people who say "I'm talking and laughing with Ma Changshi of the Qin Palace".

And Li Shimin also received the news of the end of the trial at the first time, he was not surprised by the result, it could even be said that it was within his expectation.

It's just that this court trial is just a part or the beginning of the plan, and there are still many things to come.

He turned his head and whispered to the servant standing next to him, and the servant nodded, turned around and walked out quickly, all the way to the palace gate, waved his waist card and went to the waiter outside the palace gate. A carriage, and then went straight to Datang Daily.

When I arrived at the newspaper office, I didn't say hello to other people, but went directly to Wei Zheng's office, closed the door and muttered for a long time.

On the other day, the people at the newspaper found that the editor-in-chief Wei seemed to be very busy today. He wrote and revised several manuscripts, revised and rewritten them, and kept checking the information. Obviously, this manuscript is very important.

They even saw Wei Zheng's servants in the middle of the process inviting several judges and lawyers to help check the manuscript for errors and omissions and discuss some wording.

They don't know anything else, they only know that this manuscript seems to be extremely important!

Chapter 902 Planned Public Opinion War

Li Shimin has been studying for the past few years, and Zhang Nuo gave him a book list, which is not about management or other professional books, but very miscellaneous.

At that time, Zhang Nuo explained that when it comes to being an emperor, those who have never been an emperor can give advice at most. After all, the author has absolutely no personal experience, so no matter how much he talks about it, he is farting.

Instead of believing what other people write irresponsibly and nonsense, it is better to learn more and accumulate more, and form a set of your own theory in an inclusive way.

Li Shimin is proud in his bones, so he is naturally happy with this kind of statement that is very stylish and compelling.

Then he received a long list of books and a large pile of books delivered by car.

At the very beginning, he felt that his scalp was numb. Why are there so many? Will he be able to read it all in this life?

But after he really got started, he realized that reading is actually quite simple.

There is basically nothing obscure in these books. Except for some professional terms, everything is very straightforward, but after reading it through, I found that the knowledge contained in it is extremely practical.

It is not the kind of practical thinking that needs to be pondered and changed by oneself, but various practical methods that can be directly applied as tools.

For example, there is a book on public opinion that says that the vast majority of people are actually limited by the channels for receiving information, and will default to large-scale and high-frequency push information.

And this method is actually the power of public opinion. This power can be used in ever-changing effects. It can not only block the spread of key information, but also amplify certain information to build momentum for certain actions in advance, and even To create a public image of someone and something that fits the bill.

Li Shimin used to only know the importance of reputation, otherwise he would not have arranged for people to spread his reputation everywhere when he was conquering the world.

But at that time, he was always in a state of not knowing why. He knew that many things should be done in this way, but he didn't understand the reason for doing so, and the theoretical basis in the middle.

And after he read these books, and dealt with his past experiences, he suddenly realized why Zhang Nuo didn't suggest him to accept other people's theories.

Because he has already embarked on the road of establishing his own governance theory and governance methods, so there is no need for other people's theories.

Today, he arranged for someone to notify Wei Zheng of what he was going to do, which was actually a verification of what he had learned recently. He wanted to use this operation to see if he had become more proficient in those strange methods.

Of course, since it is an experiment, it is risky, but with him sitting in Chang'an, what other ghosts and snakes can jump up and down?

Since the worst result is just like that, then why worry about it, he, Lao Li, has been responsible for others not once or twice, and he is afraid of getting some troubles by himself.

But this time, the first step is to lead the public opinion battle. Only after the people have caused enough waves, can he take advantage of the trend and start to act.

Because in this way, he is a good emperor who "follows the will of the people", not a careerist who "schemes to plot someone".

As for the result, let's see it.

The next day, the Datang Daily published a feature article by editor-in-chief Wei Zheng on the front page about the social hotspot that the Su family sued King Qin Zhang Nuo yesterday.

Wei Zheng produced quite a lot of space this time, and even turned this issue of the newspaper into a special issue.

He first briefly introduced the ins and outs of the whole matter. After all, even though this matter has been widely spread, most people are just hearsay. Not many people really know.

After the science popularization was over, most of Wei Zheng's articles were concentrated on the analysis of this case. His views were very peculiar, and he almost publicized the trial with great fanfare.

He believes that although the old Su family lost the lawsuit this time, it was only a failure in the court trial. This is not the old Su family's problem. On the contrary, the case of the old Su family suing Qin Wangfu this time has opened a new chapter for the rule of law in the Tang Dynasty. .

After all, in the past, when facing a behemoth like Prince Qin's Mansion, most people thought of enduring the calm for a while and taking a step back to broaden the sea and the sky.

But they didn't realize at all that under the protection of the law, they can completely protect their own interests through legal means.

Of course, no matter how courageous Wei Zheng was, he would not dare to blackmail Zhang Nuo, especially when the Palace of Qin had already done everything it should do this time.

Wei Zheng instead praised Zhang Nuo in the remaining pages.

After all, although Zhang Nuo was not present this time, he was able to let the long history of his family, the real fourth-rank official, fly back from Gaoli to participate in this trial on his behalf, which shows Zhang Nuo's respect and recognition of the law.

In comparison, the other honorables seem to regard the law as nothing, and there are not one or two juniors who are rampant on the streets of Chang'an relying on the power of their elders in the court.

Although this kind of thing is becoming less and less, it happens from time to time, just because usually when something happens, someone from the house will come to deal with it, and provide one-stop services such as compensation and threats.

And the victim generally wanted to try not to cause trouble, so the matter calmed down like this.

But in fact, there are some things that can obviously be resorted to the law to fight for one's own interests and get the criminals punished, but everyone thinks that the law can't do it, so they don't do it.

But now that even the high-ranking Prince Qin's Mansion has set an example, are there any exceptions for other people?

Could it be that he thought that his status was higher than King Qin's?

Even at the end of this article, Wei Zheng almost yelled out the slogan "The emperor breaks the law and the common people are the same crime", which is short of saying that everyone is equal before the law.

But although he didn't say this, the meaning that should be expressed has already been expressed.

Seeing this eloquent article occupying several pages, people were still discussing the high righteousness of Qin Wang Zhang Nuo at the beginning. Qin Wangfu is willing to let the old Su family share the benefits brought by this prescription.

While people were envious, they were also lamenting that the old Su family had turned into a phoenix once they flew up the branches. It was simply shit luck, and they were also lamenting the benevolence and righteousness of the Qin Palace.

But this matter has passed after all, and it's just like that when we chat, but there are some things that haven't passed yet!

Chapter 903

In the past few years, Datang Daily has become an indispensable item in people's lives. Everyone has their own love for the things published on it.
