Great Lawyer

Chapter 454 You have to be reserved ([-])

"Is Mr. Du sick?" Ji Yu was very surprised, "I, I don't know that you are sick, are you uncomfortable?"

Du Jiuyan wanted to hit King Gui on the head.

"Didn't you see that her face is pale and her body is weak?" King Gui said, "Go back quickly."

It's outrageous for a good girl to run to his palace for nothing and ruin his reputation!

"It's a little uncomfortable." Du Jiuyan had to follow King Gui's words, "But it's okay, it's okay to talk."

Ji Yu said: "Forget it, I'll talk to Mr. Du another day, I, I'll take my leave first and go back, Mr. Du, please rest well."

He said hello to everyone and left.

"I'll send Miss Ji off." Du Jiuyan wanted to go out, King Gui said, "Xie Hua, send Miss Ji out of the mansion."

Xie Hua opened the curtain, looked sadly at King Gui, and said to Ji Yu with a smile, "Miss Ji, I will take you home."

Ji Yu nodded, then looked back at Du Jiuyan reluctantly, and left.

When she left, Du Jiuyan strode over, staring at the chessboard and said, "This chess is well played, it's messy and black and white, you two are really masters."

"Play casually." Cai Zhuoru said, "Brother lame, let's go to the shop."

The lame man nodded, "Okay!"

The two walked away without incident.

Du Jiuyan stared at King Gui, and King Gui looked at her carelessly, "I'm thinking about your health. If you're not in good health, you need to rest. If you don't have anything to see, chatting with anyone is just nonsense."

"I just want to chat nonsense with her." Du Jiuyan said: "Miss Ji is not a girl that everyone likes. It is a strange thing that she can abandon her reserve and come to me."

"You're not curious why she did this."

Gui Wang believed her reason, "So what, you look at yourself, you look at people with squinting eyes, have you never seen a woman?"

"She's not reserved, you have to be reserved!"

"I'm lewd?" Du Jiuyan rubbed his forehead, "It's human nature for a gentleman to love beautiful women. What's the problem?"

King Gui pointed to his face, "Come and see me, come!"

Du Jiuyan ignored him, "Where it's warm, you can stay here quickly, I'm going to the troupe."

"I'm going out too." King Gui said.

Du Jiuyan squinted at him, "Didn't the Holy Majesty ask you to go to the palace to discuss something, and you are not afraid that he will punish you if you procrastinate?"

"It's important." King Gui said, walked away from her for a few steps, and then turned around to warn her, "You have to respect yourself, and don't just talk to girls who don't know why."

As he said that, he walked away quickly. Hearing the sound of footsteps chasing after him, he lifted his feet and ran away, disappearing in a flash.

Du Jiuyan laughed angrily at him, "Boring people, blame others for their problems."

What exactly does Miss Ji want to do?
At first she thought that Ji Yu was trying to get in touch with King Gui in a roundabout way, but she didn't see that she had such intentions this time.

Ask her to be a lawyer?I haven't heard of any cases that need to be defended by the Chengde Marquis Mansion.

Very strange.

"There have been too many strange things recently." Du Jiuyan changed his clothes and went to the government office without haste.

Qi Daiqing was not there, Shan Dequan greeted him when he heard he was coming, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Du came to ask Chang Liu?"

"Yeah, are you awake?"

Shan Dequan replied: "When he woke up, I tied him up and stuffed a piece of cloth into his mouth three times a day." He paused and said, "It's not that easy for him to want to die."

"You don't even speak?"

Shan Dequan shook his head, "Keep your eyes closed all day long."

"Go and see." Du Jiuyan and Shan Dequan went to the cell together.Chang Liu was alone in the room, lying on the kang with his hands and feet trapped, his mouth was stuffed with a white cloth, his eyes were closed all the time, he was no different from a dead person.

A fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, what caused him to become like this?
"Chang Liu." Du Jiuyan said, "How does it feel to kill someone?"

Chang Liu frowned, opened his eyes and glanced at her, then closed them again, "I seek justice, everything I do is right, you will be punished for what you do."

"Your justice is to destroy the troupe?"

Chang Liu said: "Yes!"

"Then have you received the so-called justice?" Du Jiuyan asked.

"It's just one step away." Chang Liu looked at Du Jiuyan resentfully, "If it wasn't for you, I could get my justice."

Du Jiuyan nodded, "Then why didn't you just kill Leader Chang?"

Chang Liu sneered, and said stubbornly: "Torturing a life is worse than killing him, it's more enjoyable than killing him."

It turned out to be the case.

"Then you live well." Du Jiuyan said with a smile: "The autumn trial has passed, and you still have a year to think about your life slowly."

Chang Liu stared at her.

Du Jiuyan bent down and whispered something in his ear, Chang Liu was stunned with astonishment on his face, "You, what do you mean?"

"Want to tell me?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Chang Liu pursed her lips, and suddenly sneered, "You think too much, I have nothing to tell you."

Du Jiuyan stopped talking to him, and greeted Shan Dequan, "Let's go. The Hangjia class will start again in two days. Remember to call your brothers to join us."

Chang Liu whimpered angrily from behind.

"Okay." Shan Dequan said: "Mr. Du, what did you tell him just now?"

Du Jiuyan shook his head, "I want to know in which book or play he read about his killing methods."

"Oh." Shan Dequan said: "Mr. Du, is he going to check the script?"

Du Jiuyan said: "Just wait until I ask class leader Chang." She went to Hang's class as she spoke. He greeted him and said, "The two younger brothers have solid acting skills and are very talented. Now, as long as you have mastered your figure and positioning, and memorized the opera words, you can start the stage."

Du Jiuyan looked at Naoer and Huazi proudly.

The two looked at her shyly, and said, "Ninth Brother, don't come to listen to that day..."

"Why?" Du Jiuyan said: "My Naoer and Huazi are going to be on stage, even if there is a knife in the sky, I will come."

Nao'er blushed, "I'm afraid that if I can't sing well, I'll embarrass you."

"No!" Du Jiuyan said: "Even if you can't sing well, it can only show that you have a lot of room for improvement. I look forward to your greater improvement."

Nao'er looked at Du Jiuyan and laughed.

"Team Leader Chang," Du Jiuyan asked, "is there any drama that uses Su Ba Niang's killing methods?"

Leader Chang was taken aback for a moment, and thought for a while: "No! There are neither literary nor martial arts, I'm sure."

"Mr. Du is wondering why Liu'er knows this method of murder?"

Du Jiuyan nodded, "Although the case is closed, I still have questions."

The class leader Chang didn't know either, and he looked puzzled, "Could it be that someone taught him? But he's in the troupe all day, who will teach him?"

"Check it out slowly." Du Jiuyan said: "There will always be an answer."

Often the head teacher should be.

Du Jiuyan stayed in the Hangjia class until noon, Chang Li cooked the meal, and the children in the whole room ate together, but there was no sound at all. Huazi and Naoer were also with the children, harmonious and natural.

"I only ate one bowl, eat more." Du Jiuyan touched the bowl Chang Tao put down, "Don't worry if you eat too much, the younger brothers don't have enough to eat, eat yourself first, and grow up quickly. "

Chang Tao looked at Du Jiuyan with uncertain eyes.

"Go and fill the rice," Du Jiuyan said, "Eating a full meal is the most important thing in life."

Chang Taohong nodded with eyes wide open, then ran to fill up a big bowl of rice, buried her head in eating with the meat in between, the leader Chang watched and wiped away tears, said: "It's all useless to me."

He thinks that the children eat less, but in fact the children are sensible and save every meal.

"You have done a good job." Du Jiuyan said: "They don't have you, maybe they don't even have half a bowl of rice."

Chang Tao nodded, Paulownia wiped his mouth and said, "Leader, Mr. Du is right, without you, we would have died long ago."

Chang Banzhu is very relieved that he did not raise these children in vain.

After dinner, the older children went to wash the dishes, and the younger ones went to bed. Chang Tao took Du Jiuyan to the corner, fumbled in his pocket for a long time, and took out a piece of black osmanthus candy. Candy for you." "Don't you like it?" Du Jiuyan knelt down to look at him.

Chang Tao leaned close to her ear and said, "Sir, I'm full today and I don't want to eat candy anymore."

"That's it," Du Jiuyan chewed the candy in his mouth, "I'm full too, very full!"

Chang Tao grinned at her with her missing teeth, "Did you save the meal for me?"

"No, I ate late in the morning, and I'm not hungry yet." Du Jiuyan said, "If I were hungry, I could eat a cow in one sitting."

Chang Tao laughed, "Sir, bragging."

Du Jiuyan shook his head, "It's not bragging, it's bragging!"

Chang Tao held her belly and laughed.

"Brother Jiu," Huazi came over, and Chang Tao saluted, "Sir, I'll take my younger brothers to sleep." Said and ran away.

Du Jiuyan looked at Huazi.

"Ninth brother, when are we going back to Shaoyang?"

Du Jiuyan thought for a while, and told him the Queen Mother's request, "...I can't go back for the time being, do you have any new plans?"

"No, I'm afraid we won't be able to find someone to replace Mr. Chang after we leave, so I'm asking you. But don't worry now, if you wait until April or May next year, Mr. Chang should have enough time."

Du Jiuyan nodded, "It should be enough, Shan Butou also agreed to help him."

"Then I'll go practice."

Du Jiuyan went out to the teahouse. He didn't know when the Marquis of Jingning would arrange the house. The Sanchitang could only be temporarily placed in the teahouse.

"Mr. Du," an old lady was hovering at the door of the teahouse. Seeing Du Jiuyan approaching, she greeted him hesitantly, "I, I have something to ask you."

Du Jiuyan looked at the aunt, about forty years old, wearing a blue cotton jacket with white flowers, a pair of navy blue cotton trousers and black cotton shoes underneath, her hair was wrapped in blue cotton cloth, and she looked very anxious and haggard.

"Tell me." Du Jiuyan said.

The aunt said: "My daughter disappeared, today is the third day. They all said that she ran away with the man, I... I don't believe it. "

"My daughter has been married to the Liu family for five years, and has been a widow for four years. She has been doing things honestly and serving her in-laws. She never even leaves the house. It is impossible for her to meet any man."

Du Jiuyan asked, "Auntie, what's your last name?"

"My surname is Xu, and I belong to my husband's family." Aunt Xu said.

"You mean, your widowed daughter married to the Liu family has been missing for three days. People in the husband's family said that she ran away with a man, but you don't believe me, so you want to ask me for help?" Du Jiuyan concluded.

Xu nodded, "Yes, that's what it means."
