Great Lawyer

Chapter 239 Keeping a Secret ([-])

After Yang Po was arrested, Mrs. Yu didn't eat or drink. There was cold food on the table, and the sisters-in-law in the next room deliberately put aside their work and accompanied her while she was sewing and talking.

I'm afraid Mrs. Yu won't be able to think about it.

Yu Shi was doing needlework calmly, when he raised his head in the gap, he saw Du Jiuyan at the door, his face froze, the needle pricked his hand, and blood dripped on the shroud.

"Hello, Mr. Du." In the room, the three sisters-in-law from the next room stood up, "Mr. Du, sit down, and we will pour you tea."

Du Jiuyan waved his hand, "No, I'll just stop by and have a look, and I'll go now."

The three of them looked at each other, and they should have gone out.

Yu lowered her head and continued to sew the clothes in her hands. After a while, she said calmly: "I reminded Yang Po to let him stop in moderation. But he didn't listen to me. Their father and son have the same personality. Love to get into a dead end."

"Yang Po finally gave birth to a son, and then the husband and wife couldn't have one."

"So...Yang Changgong's curse hit the sore spot of their father and son." Yu never looked up, and the needle and thread in his hand were not fast, "I told him to make him think about it. Mr. Du came to this case. It will definitely be investigated very clearly, and Yang Changgong will not be able to kill Yang Changgong alone if he takes two lives."

"It's not worth it!" said Yu.

Du Jiuyan listened quietly and did not speak.

"Mr. Du," Mrs. Yu handed over the needle that had run out of thread, "can you thread a needle for me, I can't see."

Du Jiuyan threaded three needles for her, tied a long thread on the mattress on one side, and added tea for Yu Shi, "At first, I wondered why some people can make shrouds for winter."

Shrouds are not divided into winter and summer.

"I didn't realize Yang Po's estranged attitude from you when I came to eat later." Du Jiuyan said, "Will Madam be taken care of?"

Yu shook her head, "The shroud is finished, and I'm almost there." She smiled at Du Jiuyan, "It's not suicide. If I want to commit suicide, I won't wait until today, but my body is exhausted. .”

"Is there someone to help Madam's funeral?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Mrs. Yu shook her head, "So I want to ask Mr. Du, if I am about to die, can I, Yang Po, come back to die for me?"

"You ask the chief to go to the yamen to submit a complaint. The procedures and laws are allowed." Du Jiuyan said: "Madam, you should eat or eat before the deadline, otherwise you will commit suicide."

Mrs. Yu bowed and said yes.

Du Jiuyan opened the curtain and went out, stood in the yard of Yang Changsheng's house, kicked the wall of his house, suddenly, someone came over and said mockingly: "It's too late to kick!"

"It's not too late." Du Jiuyan looked at King Gui who was wearing an official uniform with his hands behind his back, "It's never too late to do what you want to do."

King Gui glanced at her chest.

"Still jealous of me?" Du Jiuyan looked at him with raised eyebrows, King Gui curled his lips and puffed out his chest and said, "What's the big deal, I'm not young now."

Du Jiuyan laughed, and walked out of the yard with his hands behind his back. King Gui came out behind her. Yang Changgong greeted him, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Du, you're here. Master Liu was talking about you just now."

"Are you talking about me?" Du Jiuyan cast a glance at King Gui, "Your Excellency must be praising me for loving the people like a son."

Yang Changgong nodded, "My lord said you are a good litigator."

"Does that mean I'm a good person?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Yang Changgong's face froze, he glanced at King Gui, and said awkwardly: "Mr. Du, let's go inside and drink tea."

"No need." Du Jiuyan looked up at the sky and said, "It's going to rain, I have to leave early."

Mrs. Ping came out and gave two umbrellas, "My lord and Mr. Du didn't ride a horse or car, so take an umbrella." She said, looking at King Gui, "My lord's words today, the women will remember, and you must live a good life. ,Past……"

"Go back." King Gui waved his hands, "I didn't tell you anything."

Mrs. Ping was startled, smiled and said yes, and went home.

"Hey!" Du Jiuyan looked King Gui up and down, "You can still explain others, when did you become a bosom brother?"

King Gui knocked over with the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, and Du Jiuyan blocked it, and the two of them fought back and forth on the road, but the umbrella in Du Jiuyan's hand was pierced by King Gui in seven moves, and it was torn to pieces.

Du Jiuyan looked at him, "Remember to lose money."

As he spoke, he threw the broken umbrella by the side of the road, King Gui curled his lips and said, "Who told you to laugh at me?"

"My lord, I'm praising you." Du Jiuyan said for a while, and then he heard a bang from the courtyard of Yang Changgong's house behind him, and the walls of the two courtyards collapsed.

King Gui showed a surprised expression, smacked his mouth and said, "This hammer is well made."

"My lord, you are very kind." Du Jiuyan walked with her hands behind her back, and King Gui walked side by side with her, carrying a long gray oil umbrella, "You want to learn from me?"

Du Jiuyan shook his head, "My lord is kind and too low-key, it's not suitable for me."

"Sissy." King Gui said: "If you have time to lose me, you should quickly think about how you can win Southwest. But it's okay, if you lose, go and let me go."

"No." Du Jiuyan said.

"Guangxi is very good, the child you sent is having a very happy life." King Gui said.

Du Jiuyan shook his head, "My lord's rebellion hasn't succeeded yet, I'll let you go after you succeed."

"Young girl, don't think I don't know. You used to persuade me to go back to the capital, but this time you persuaded me to rebel." King Gui suddenly came up to him, squinted his eyes and said, "You want to follow me because you are interested in me." A rising tide raises all boats and raises my value."

"My lord is smart." Du Jiuyan cupped his hands and said, "So hurry up and rebel, I will be your Bi Mawen."

King Gui gave her a blank look, "Just wait, I'm more interested in being a county magistrate now. If you're in a hurry, why don't you rebel yourself."

"Such abilities must be innate, wait for me to carry out another pregnancy." Du Jiuyan said.

King Gui sneered.

"When you came out, was there any conclusion about Li Zhi's corruption?" Du Jiuyan asked.

King Gui snorted, and replied: "The summary is that the Ministry of Households dismissed a third-rank servant, a fifth-rank doctor from Zhejiang Qinglisi and a Jiangxi Qinglisi, and a sixth-rank governor."

"He Cheng was imprisoned in the Metropolitan Procuratorate for the crime of covering up."

That is to say, Lu Zhangzhi won in the end.He Cheng became the most unlucky person, because everyone else was demoted and he was the only one who went to jail.

King Gui looked at her with a half-smile, and Du Jiuyan snorted, "Hubu, Liupin? No...it can't be Lord Qiu, right?"

"It's your Wangnian friend, Qiu Zhang." King Gui gloated.

Du Jiuyan showed a regretful expression, "Lord Qiu was accidentally injured, it's useless for him to drink Dahongpao from an earthenware bowl."

"It's not that he was accidentally injured, he was promoted." King Gui said with disgust, "After he was dismissed, he went to find Guo Ting, and dragged Guo Ting to bring your letter to Lu Zhangzhi crying."

Du Jiuyan sighed, "Lord Qiu, you're going to lose my man again."

"Well, it's too embarrassing. So Lu Zhangzhi threw him to Honglu Temple, fifth grade!" Gui Wang said.

Du Jiuyan nodded, "I was ashamed once, hugged one thigh and fulfilled my life's wish... I don't know when Mr. Qiu will retire and return home. I think half-way robbery should be quite rewarding."

"Let him keep it first!" King Gui said calmly.

Du Jiuyan cast a glance at him, "You... came out so smoothly, is it also related to this matter?"

"I'll come out when I want to, it doesn't matter to anyone." King Gui said.

Du Jiuyan showed a noncommittal expression.

"However, fortunately, you are smart enough to leave quickly, otherwise my brother will keep you in the capital, and he intends to issue a decree to Yanjing Litigation Bank to arrange for you to go in." King Gui said: "If you don't leave, you will be killed in the capital." It's really embarrassing."

"My lord, don't judge others by yourself, my ability is much higher than yours." Du Jiuyan said.

King Gui was disdainful, and was about to speak, when suddenly a spring thunder exploded above his head, and then big raindrops fell down.

"Ha." King Gui opened the umbrella with a snap, shaking it triumphantly, "I have an umbrella, it doesn't look like someone is going to be drowned."

Du Jiuyan grabbed his wrist and snatched his umbrella, "Whoever is shameless will poke my umbrella."

"It's because you are not capable enough to beat me." King Gui went to break her wrist, and Du Jiuyan pinched his waist, pinched the flesh and twisted it. King Gui screamed, and when he let go of the umbrella, Du Jiuyan snatched it away. Now, she strode ahead, looking back at someone who was drenched in the rain, "My lord, you can seduce again when you're wet."

Gui Wang angrily tore off the skin on his face.

He wiped his wet face, pointed at her and said, "Girl, return my umbrella!"

"My lord is strong and strong. You'll be fine in the rain." Du Jiuyan refused to give him a hand, and King Gui punched him. She stepped aside, and the fist brushed her cheek. When she retracted her hand, she found that the back of her hand was black. With a cry, he said, "Your Majesty, why is your face so dirty?"

Looking at Du Jiuyan's face again, he found that her face had turned pale.

"Wait a minute." He walked over, Du Jiuyan threw the umbrella to him, King Gui caught it in a panic, and went to see her again, she took a piece of cloth from nowhere and covered her face.

King Gui squinted at her and ran over, "Your face..."

"Ugly!" Du Jiuyan said.

King Gui showed doubts, "You have pockmarks all over your face, so you purposely smeared your face black to cover the pockmarks?"

He suddenly remembered that the first time they met was in Zhenyuan Mansion, when Du Jiuyan was putting on makeup, his face was clearly very pale.

Then he forgot about it.

"Hush!" Du Jiuyan said: "My lord, this is a secret between the two of us, you must keep it a secret for me, otherwise the girl in Shaoyang will be disappointed."

Du Jiuyan sighed, "Du is not as beautiful as your lord."

"So pitiful?" King Gui looked suspicious.

Du Jiuyan frowned, and his eyes were pitiful, "Everyone has an inferiority complex that cannot be told. My inferiority complex is my face." Trust me, trust me!
"Okay." King Gui said: "Seeing how pitiful you are, I will keep it a secret for you for now. However, if your face turns pale, you are really a sissy."

Du Jiuyan gritted his teeth secretly, and said patiently: "Yes, yes. Does a darker face make you more manly?"

"So that's how it is." King Gui shook his shoulders, straightened his chest, and said proudly, "Compared to me, you really don't have much masculinity."

Du Jiuyan nodded and held him in his arms, "Your Highness is indeed manly."

King Gui believed it, nodded and said: "But it's not suitable to wipe this kind of thing, it's better to make a face. When Mao Laodao comes, let him make a face for you."

"Yes?" Du Jiuyan said.

King Gui snorted coldly, "What he did is much better than what you did before. It's enough to distinguish the fake from the real."

That's true.A master is a master, and a disciple is a disciple.

"Why don't you thank me." King Gui said, "Otherwise I will tell the world that you are an ugly man with pockmarks all over your face."

　Goblin, go ahead and grab the umbrella, your makeup will disappear after the rain...

　　You can't be too kind and give in to Master Jiu.
