Great Lawyer

Chapter 614 Uncle and Nephew ([-])

"Also hire a lawyer?" Zhao Yu couldn't believe it, "Who will take his lawsuit?"

Qian Yu replied, "It's Shen Daoru from Yanjing."

"You promised?"

Qian Yu smiled wryly, crossed his hands and replied, "If the case is decided, he will still have to ask a lawyer to file a lawsuit, or to open the court again. Zhou Lv clearly stipulates that no matter who it is, everyone has a chance to ask a lawyer to defend the case."

"Since a litigator is willing to take this case, I have no choice but to agree."

Zhao Yu said: "Xue An, go and find Shen Daoru."

He was having a headache about the riot, so he wanted to find a way to settle the case of King Huai.Unexpectedly, at this juncture, Shen Daoru actually made a move.

Qian Yu also wanted to ask Shen Daoru if he had lost his mind. Wouldn't it be scolding to defend King Huai at this time?
After a while, Shen Daoru was brought in.

After saluting and kowtowing, Zhao Yu didn't let him get up, and asked calmly, "Did you look for King Huai, or did King Huai look for you?"

"Returning to the Holy Lord, it was Prince Huai who found the student." Shen Daoru cupped his hands and replied.

Zhao Yu asked: "You have been a litigator for so many years, you have gained fame and fortune, do you still want to use this case to create momentum for yourself?" He added: "Do you know that no matter you win or lose, you will not gain fame and fortune. "

Shen Daoru cupped his hands and said, "My lord, students are not for fame and fortune."

"It's just that we follow the law. Although King Huai is a prince, in this case, he is just an ordinary prisoner."

"The law of Zhou stipulates that even a heinous criminal has the right to ask a lawyer to defend himself. This is his right, and the law is to protect the rights of everyone in this world."

Shen Daoru said: "My lord, the more it is at this time, the more fair and just the law can be. The students will try their best to defend the lawsuit, but they will not deliberately fabricate facts in order to alleviate his charges, and turn black and white upside down."

"So, even if there are more students in the courtroom, as long as the evidence of Dali Temple is convincing, it doesn't matter what the sentence should be."

After Shen Daoru finished speaking, he saluted Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu looked at him with displeasure, "The civil riots are no small matter. The people are waiting for the outcome of King Huai's case. You have wasted time by accepting this case, so I only give you three days to prepare for this case."

"Three days later, the Dali Temple will continue to open for trial."

Three days is of course not enough time to defend King Huai's case, he didn't make detailed preparations before.

But fortunately, the dossier written by Ji Anlai is very clear, so he will still gain something if he goes to check it.

"Yes!" Shen Daoru said: "Students must take the lawsuit seriously and uphold the justice of the law."

Zhao Yu waved his hand and said, "Go, go!"

Shen Daoru should be, saluted and exited the imperial study room. When he got out of the palace gate, he saw a woman waiting for him. Except for Wang's mother, Wang Taifei, there is no one else.

"Greetings to the concubine." Shen Daoru said.

Wang Taifei said: "Are you Shen Daoru?"

Shen Daoru should be.

"Long story short." Wang Taifei asked, "You have accepted the case of King Huai, how do you plan to defend it?"

Shen Daoru said: "The students haven't read the file carefully, but there are always methods and angles."

"In any case, as long as you have the heart, you will definitely find a favorable side." Shen Daoru replied: "Please don't worry, Madam Dowager."

Wang Taifei looked at him, she did not believe that Shen Daoru would be so stupid as to help King Huai at this time.

So, he must have other purposes.

"Who told you to do this?" Wang Dowager asked.

Shen Daoru replied: "Students just act according to the law and do what a litigator should do. No one instructs or asks them."

"I don't care what your purpose is," Wang Dowager looked at him, "but if you use King Huai, I will not let you off lightly."

Shen Daoru said: "The concubine shouldn't say that about students. In this case, even if you want to hate anyone, you should hate Du Jiuyan."

"If it wasn't for her, the matter of Prince Huai would not have turned out like this. And the student is just doing his duty as a litigator." Shen Daoru said.

Princess Wang looked at him and walked away.

Shen Daoru smiled, bowed his head and walked out of the palace gate.

Du Jiuyan sat in the main hall of Sanchitang, listening to Han Chongying's description of his nephew's situation.Han Chongying was of medium height, slightly fat, with small eyes and light eyebrows, white and fat, wearing a ginger-yellow long coat, like a fat orange cat basking in the sun after eating and drinking.

"...Mr. Du, after my eldest brother married my sister-in-law, he had nothing to do for five years. Later, he couldn't resist the pressure from the clan and wanted to take a concubine. When he gave birth, he raised his child in my sister-in-law's room."

"But my sister-in-law's temperament is a person who can't be twisted. She said that if she can't conceive in another year, she will ask her to go down. My elder brother doesn't need to take concubines anymore, he married himself to fill the house Just give birth to a son-in-law."

"And then," Du Jiuyan asked, "Is your sister-in-law pregnant within a year?"

Han Chongying nodded, "Yes, in October of that year, my sister-in-law found out she was pregnant."

"After she became pregnant, the whole family was very happy and even burned incense and worshiped Buddha."

"Later, because my sister-in-law was pregnant, several women in our family also went to Zhongshan Temple with her. Mr. Du, you investigated the case of Zhongshan Temple yourself, and you know more about the filth in it than I do."

"My nephew is definitely not my elder brother's child." Han Chongying said.

Du Jiuyan asked, "Does your elder brother have any other children?"

"No more!" Han Chongying said: "He has a good relationship with my sister-in-law. After my sister-in-law became pregnant, he never married the younger one."

Du Jiuyan took a sip of tea, "Do you have evidence to prove that your nephew is not your elder brother's own flesh and blood?"

"He doesn't look like my elder brother at all."

Du Jiuyan asked, "Like your sister-in-law?"

"It's very similar. If you have time to visit my house, you will know that I am not lying when you see him." Han Chongying said.

Du Jiuyan raised his eyebrows and asked, "How many brothers are you?"

"My mother gave birth to me and my eldest brother." Han Chongying said: "The Han family has lived in Huairou for generations. It is not easy to create this family business. You said, if it is passed on to outsiders, it will still be... still a bastard. Am I worthy of my ancestors? ?”

Du Jiuyan said: "Besides appearance, what else can prove that your nephew is not your elder brother's child?"

Han Chongying froze for a moment, then shook his head, "No, no more."

"There is no way to prove this kind of thing." Han Chongying said: "That's why I want to argue with you. As long as you act, it will definitely be resolved."

Du Jiuyan said: "I have no way to prove this kind of thing."

"Sorry, I can't accept your lawsuit." Du Jiuyan said with a smile.

Han Chongying's complexion changed immediately, "Mr. Du, I can double my legal fees to you."

"It's useless even if you are ten times." Du Jiuyan spread his hands and said, "There is nothing I can do to help, you can think of a way."

Han Chongying said: "Then, what do you think I should do?"

"I don't know either." Du Jiuyan said, "I can't explain this kind of thing."

"Unless there is a way to prove that this nephew of yours is not your eldest brother's child, it will be difficult to get a result even if this lawsuit is filed for ten years."

Han Chongying was not happy, and said with a flick of his sleeves, "You mean, I have to recognize this nephew? Even if I know that he is not my elder brother's, I have to watch him become the patriarch and give him all the things of the Han family?"

Du Jiuyan looked at him regretfully.

"Damn it!" Han Chongying patted the table and said, "Everyone says that you, Du Jiuyan, are so powerful. Now I think you are just making a name for yourself."

"The case of Zhongshan Temple was found out by you. If you don't recognize the consequences now, you have to admit it."

Du Jiuyan didn't speak, Dou Rongxing patted the table and stood up, angrily said: "What are you talking about, my ninth brother is just handling the case, does it have anything to do with him?"

"If you cover the rotten sore with straw, will it disappear?"

"Deceive yourself. Besides, you are a bastard. If your elder brother is alive, he will be pissed off by you. You want to seize the family property and bully your widow and nephew. You are ashamed to invite my ninth brother to file a lawsuit."

"Come on, our temple here is small, and it cannot accommodate a big Bodhisattva like you."

Han Chongying was very angry, "You, you wait for me."

With that said, he shook his sleeves and left.

Du Jiuyan gave Dou Rongxing a thumbs up, "Love makes you brave, Mr. Dou is great!"

"Ninth Brother," Dou Rongxing blushed, "Why did you listen to him talking so much nonsense just now? According to your temper, you should throw him out after a few words."

Du Jiuyan said: "I was thinking about other things just now, and I lost my mind for a while, so I asked him to say a few more words. I was wrong."

"This kind of person is simply inexplicable." Dou Rongxing said.

Du Jiuyan leaned on the chair and didn't speak.

Han Chongying went out. Although he was angry, he understood that Du Jiuyan was right. It was impossible to prove that Han Qing was not the eldest brother's son.

Because appearance alone is not convincing at all.

As for the monks of Zhongshan Temple, it is even more impossible. Those monks are all dead.

"What should we do?" He frowned, and the servant next to him whispered, "Second Master, it is not easy to prove that the Eldest Young Master is not the son of the Eldest Master, but it is very easy to prove that the Eldest Madam..."

Chang Sui said, showing a wretched smile.

Han Chongying's eyes lit up, he laughed, pointed at Chang Sui and said, "Smart!"

The two came out of the alley with a smile. As soon as they reached the entrance of the alley, they saw a guard in official robes rushing in. He was taken aback, and followed the man back to the entrance of the Sanchi Hall.

Seeing that person go in, he cupped his hands at Du Jiuyan and said, "Mr. Du, Mr. Qian invites you to Dali Temple."

"Okay." Du Jiuyan said: "Is there anything good?"

The other party smiled wryly: "It's really not a good thing. King Huai invited Shen Daoru to be a litigator. After thinking about it, my lord thinks that you are the most familiar with this case, so I still need you to defend the case."

"Brother Nine," Dou Rongxing called out, and Du Jiuyan winked at him, "Shh, there's a busy case, and people are not empty."

"Please, Brother Cha."

The guard said strangely: "Mr. Du, you are not surprised, are you not angry?"

"It's not surprising that King Huai asked a litigator within legal principles."

The officer said: "The key is that Shen Daoru will take over..." He said halfway, thought for a while and smiled and said, "Yanjing never looks at these cases when accepting lawsuits. It seems that there is nothing strange about it."
