Great Lawyer

Chapter 568

"What's the matter, Jiuyan's speech has been interrupted today, and what he said makes sense." The Queen Mother didn't want to hear it anymore. Although she also knew about Shen Daoru, she still hoped that Du Jiuyan would win the case in private.

What's more, King Gui is also involved in this case, if he loses, it will be embarrassing.

"Let Qian Yu rest." The Empress Dowager said displeased.

"Mother, is it so important to win or lose?" King Gui said, "Even if Jiuyan loses a lawsuit, it doesn't matter. This case is so difficult to argue, and you have to be cautious everywhere."

"It's not surprising that she lost."

King Gui said lightly, but he was very angry in his heart. If Shen Daoru interrupted Du Jiuyan again, Luo Li would talk a lot, and he would go out, make a big disturbance in Dali Temple, and imprison Shen Daoru and that old bald donkey go to prison.

law?He also showed him that no matter how great the authority of the law is, it must be under absolute power.

"What are you talking about?" The Empress Dowager was not happy, she supported Qian Momo's hand, and said, "Ai's family is tired and has gone back to the palace."

Lu Nianzong shook his head, "Empress Dowager, the case is not over yet, don't rush to leave."

"Let Yanyan treat you to dinner later."

Although the Empress Dowager was angry, she knew that it had nothing to do with Lu Nianzong, so she said kindly: "The Ai family is tired of listening, so I'm going back to the palace now, listen slowly."

When she came together, everyone followed, suddenly Lu Nianzong said: "Queen Mother, don't talk!"

The queen mother was taken aback, and Du Jiuyan next door had already started talking at some point.

"Ah, Mr. Shen, why didn't you talk about your doubts together just now? There was a period of reasoning between me, and then you said that you doubted the master and apprentice of the Zhou family, and you said it in a positive tone. It really embarrasses me."

"This old man just thought of it, thanks to Mr. Du's deduction, otherwise this old man would have hardly thought of it." Shen Daoru said.

Unexpected?Did you expect that you would take out all the pieces of the Buddha statue so quickly?

It was clear that he was ready, but he just wanted to wait until the end, as the last straw that broke his camel's back.

"That's right, I happen to have it too." Du Jiuyan walked over, picked up a piece of mud from among the debris on the ground, and fiddled with it twice in his hands.

Xuanwu told him about the fragments of the Buddha statue, did Du Jiuyan also check it?Shen Daoru frowned, suddenly feeling bad.

Du Jiuyan walked up to Zhou's family and said, "Excuse me, what is the process for making Buddha statues?"

"Make the frame first. After the frame is finished, mix coarse mud with fine straw and paste it on the shelf. After the coarse mud dries, paste another layer with fine mud. This layer of fine mud is more particular. After the coarse mud is air-dried, it is crushed and sieved to remove the coarse grains, then blended out, spread on the surface, and then repaired after the fine mud dries.”

"Because the Buddha statues in Zhongshan Temple are not painted, I put a layer of oil on the outside. The Buddha statues I made will not dry out even if they are exposed to wind and sun for decades." Zhou Jiadao: "This is what my master passed down. My master said that when our ancestors were making Buddha statues, Emperor Taizu happened to pass by and taught him how to do it, so my handicraft is unique in Dazhou."

Du Jiuyan nodded, "That's really profound."

Shen Daoru guessed that Du Jiuyan was about to speak. He took a step forward and was about to speak when Du Jiuyan suddenly pointed at him, "You are enough! I haven't interrupted you once when you talk today."

"When I talk, you interrupt over and over again."

"Mr. Shen, I have tolerated you for a long time."

Shen Daoru's face darkened, and said: "I interrupted, it's a normal rebuttal!"

"When I'm talking, you don't interrupt or refute, you can only explain..."

"Shut up!" Du Jiuyan pointed at him, "I'm refuting you now, please shut up."

"I should learn from you in the matter of impoliteness. Thank you. I have learned it now. Not only is it unreasonable but also rude. If you want to interrupt me again, I will do it." Du Jiuyan finished. , no longer looked at Shen Daoru, but handed the fragment in his hand to the Zhou family, "Come and see, is this from your hand?"

Shen Dao Confucianism flicked his sleeves.

"This is not," the Zhou family checked over and over again. It never occurred to him that the Buddha statues in Zhongshan Temple were not his handiwork for a long time. After all, he had never looked carefully for so many years. It's very thin, and the middle layer is obviously very rough, and the craftsmanship of the people who made this Buddha statue is not as good as my apprentice's."

"Mr. Du, if you don't believe me, you can go to my house and move a Buddha statue at random. If it breaks, you can see it immediately after comparing it."

"I, I just said why there are corpses in the Buddha statue. It turns out...that's the reason."

"It turns out that I didn't make these Buddha statues at all."

Du Jiuyan showed his original expression, cupped his hands and said to Qian Yu: "Please send someone to his house to move some Buddha statues."

"Yun." Qian Yu ordered people to do it.

Shen Daoru's heart jumped up, and he asked Du Jiuyan in a low voice, "Is this your last trump card?"

"No," Du Jiuyan said with a smile, "I didn't think of this a quarter of an hour ago. Thanks to your reminder, I noticed the author of the Buddha statue."

Shen Daoru didn't believe her at all, it was impossible for a person like her to think of such important evidence until the crisis happened.

She was clearly trying to annoy him on purpose.

The people who went to work came and went quickly, and after a while they came back with two clay sculptures, one was a Buddha statue, and the other was a horse, for decoration, the half-person height was very delicate.

"Can it be broken?" Du Jiuyan asked the Zhou family.

The Zhou family nodded, and said to his apprentice Zhou Jin: "You go. There is nothing more important than our lives!"

"Yes!" Zhou Jinying stood up in front of everyone, smashed the horse with a punch, and the fragments scattered on the ground. They were immediately mixed with the fragments of the Buddha thread that he brought just now, but even if they were mixed together, they could be distinguished at a glance. The insides of the two types of clay are completely different.

One fine, one rough.

"My lord, look at Mr. Du." The Zhou family picked up two pieces for comparison, "This is my handicraft. The mud is much finer, and there are no fine lines in the things made. This is also the essence of my master's inheritance."

"And this one is obviously much rougher."

Qian Yu read it and circulated it to the people below.

"Indeed, the approach is markedly different."

The Zhou family breathed a sigh of relief, and knelt back again.

"My lord, if the sculpture was not made by the master and apprentice of the Zhou family, then Mr. Shen's statement that the murderer was the master and apprentice cannot be established." After Du Jiuyan finished speaking, Qian Yu asked: "Then, if the Buddha statue was not made by them Yes, and who did it?"

Shen Daoru interjected: "The possibility cannot be ruled out. Since they can use fine mud, they can naturally use coarse mud to confuse the public. What's more, these Buddha statues were sent to Zhongshan Temple on purpose to frame Xuanwu and other monks. On top of the basics, it is reasonable to do more tricks.”

Du Jiuyan nodded, "This is indeed the case. But there are some evidences, I wonder if you have noticed."

She walked up to the scribe, took out a gold ingot and a silver ingot, and weighed them in her hand.

Shen Daoru has seen these evidences, and they are old things from the previous dynasty. He also asked Xuanwu about this, and Xuanwu told him that they were left over from the tombs they robbed in their early years.

The tomb robbery happened many years ago, and now there are no traces.What's more, there are some large tombs and ancient tombs, and not everyone can find them if they want to.

Therefore, he didn't investigate these further, and it didn't take much effort to deny these evidences that were not directly directional.

But at this moment, these things are in Du Jiuyan's hands, and he has to pay attention to them.

Could it be that he missed something?
"Old things from the previous dynasty, such things have been hard to find after more than 200 years in this dynasty. If you want to see them, there is probably only one way!" Du Jiuyan showed everyone the engraved words on it, "Tomb robbery!"

"Master Xuanwu is not only a master abbot but also a grave robber."

Added a new identity and actually went to rob the tomb!
Tomb robbery is something that harms morality, and only the most evil people would do it, but the person who does it now is actually a monk.

Everyone was very angry when they heard this, and wished they hadn't recognized Xuan Wu's true face earlier.

"Master, is that right?" Du Jiuyan looked at Xuanwu, then at his left and right assistants, "These two are your right-hand men, right?"

"The Buddha said that the Dharma is boundless, and it is the right thing to turn back, so you gangsters, after doing all the things that are devoid of conscience, you will become a monk, and you will be right?" Du Jiuyan nodded Xuanwu's bald head, "Then you should turn back , or is there a ghost behind you?"

Xuanwu said angrily: "You don't understand Buddhism, so don't use an axe here."

"Let me just say it casually, master, don't be so strict." Du Jiuyan said, Shen Daoru asked: "Mr. Du, don't forget what the subject of your lawsuit is now, you are still digressing, you are wasting everyone time."

"I'm addicted to my mouth." Du Jiuyan glanced at Shen Daoru and coughed, "Tomb robbery is not directly related to this case, but besides tomb robbery, this deputy monk has a more powerful ability!"

Du Jiuyan pointed to a monk on Xuanwu's left, "His real name is Wu Chang, from Jiujiang, Jiangxi. He left home to work at the age of 17, and has never married a wife in his life."

"Later, I met Xuan Wu, who was ordained as a monk at that time. The two of them, one true and evil and the other hypocritical, hit it off and robbed graves from then on."

"Wu Chang has a skill, which is an ancestral craft of his family. It happens to be the same as the Zhou family. He makes clay figurines of Buddha. Although he is ignorant and has not inherited the mantle of his ancestors, he is still capable enough to imitate others to make a few Buddha statues."

Wu Chang kept his head down, and when Du Jiuyan called him by name, he panicked and shook his head, "No, no."

"It's too late for you to deny it now."

Wu Chang said: "You, you only checked, checked me?"

"That's not true. I just checked a few people. After all, the workload is too much, and I don't have the energy and time." Du Jiuyan said with a smile: "You made the Buddha statue, right?"

Just as Wu Chang was about to speak, Xuan Wu yelled, "Stop talking nonsense!"

"If he doesn't say anything, he must have the confidence not to say it." Du Jiuyan looked at Xuanwu and said, "Tomb robbery, murder, and corpse hiding! Xuanwu, do you think you can still deny and deny?"

Xuan Wu said: "I, why did I kill those people, I have no reason at all."

He said, looking up at Du Jiuyan with a sneer.

"No motive!" Xuanwu said word by word.

If you have the ability, just say it, say it and see the ass of this matter, how do you wipe it!
Those who know the truth will not thank you for telling him the truth, but will only hate you and wish you to die.

Snapped!
Du Jiuyan raised his hand and slapped him, causing Xuanwu to lie on the ground.

Shocked, he covered his face and looked at him in bewilderment.

Not only him, everyone was horrified.

"Guess what is my motive for beating you?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Xuan Wu said: "You, you are a lunatic, how can I know your motive for beating me."

"Yeah, you're a lunatic, how do I know your motive!" Du Jiuyan grabbed him by the collar and said, "Come on, tell me what your motive is."

Someone laughed, "Mr. Du always catches people by surprise every time, and repays him in his own way."

Xuanwu spat out blood, and said: "I have no motive, if you want to know, you can check it yourself."

"Okay!" Du Jiuyan cupped his hands and said to Qian Yu, "My lord, I demand torture!"

"The laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty pay attention to human nature, and punishment cannot be used unless it is a last resort." Du Jiuyan said: "But now it is a last resort."

She pointed to the two monks beside Xuanwu, "Master Xuanwu is old, so let's torture them."

"First trial, what is their motive for killing people!"

Shen Daoru said: "There have been no instruments of torture for many years in the public hall in Beijing. This is also the difference between the Great Zhou Dynasty and the dynasties."

"The rules established by the patriarch at the beginning are to protect everyone's interests and human rights."

"Even in court, punishment cannot be used."

Du Jiuyan looked at Shen Daoru, and said, "What is the rule? The rule is recognized by most people!" She turned her head and asked the audience outside, "At this moment, can torture be used?"

"Whoever agrees to the torture, yell to Mr. Shen!"

agree!

The sound of mountains and tsunami rushed into the court. Du Jiuyan looked at Shen Daoru, "Mr. Shen, why did we go against the original decision and open the door to try this case? The people's will is the way, the true rules are the patriarch pursued."

"So, my lord, please use the punishment!"

The two kneeling monks were sweating coldly.

"Yun!" Qian Yu lost the token, "Get on the stick!"

Someone from the left and right brought up the sticks and held the fingers of the two monks. Before they could pull the two monks and let out a scream, Wu Chang said: "Beheading is not enough to hit the ground. I say, I can say anything!"

"Wu Chang!" Xuan Wu shouted.

Wu Chang looked back at Xuan Wu and said, "Master, can't you see it? She just wants us to die!"

Xuanwu stared at Du Jiuyan angrily.

"Yes!" Du Jiuyan looked at Xuanwu, "I won't pass the trial this time, and there will be another time. I will never give up until I bring you to justice."
