Great Lawyer

Chapter 704

"There is no news about the ancient tomb, but the whereabouts of Taoist Wuwei have already been revealed." The lame man said, "What did you find out this morning?"

Du Jiuyan said: "Do you remember the boy who confessed in Ji'an Mingyuefang?"

The lame man nodded, "I didn't send it to Dali Temple, and I haven't seen it since. Did you put it in the house over there?"

"Yeah. The jailer who was implicated in Ren Yanhui's death yesterday committed suicide by jumping into a cesspit." Du Jiuyan said, "I just wore Ashi to identify the corpse."

The lame man raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "Recognize the corpse?"

"Yeah." Du Jiuyan said, "He said it was his senior brother who was together when they were young."

The lame man sat down opposite King Gui, and the three of them didn't speak for a while.

After a while, King Gui said, "You...have nothing to do with this matter?"

The lame man looked at King Gui, "I thought you knew my position."

King Gui said: "Without conclusive evidence, I can't pretend that I know everything."

"That can only be discussed later," the cripple said helplessly, "I have been very clear about my position from the beginning to the end."

King Gui didn't speak any more.

"If," Du Jiuyan interrupted the conversation between the two, "this ghost, the purpose of killing Ren Yanhui is to prevent Mr. Qian from joining the cabinet, so has his purpose been achieved?"

Ren Yanhui was killed and Qian Yu was not allowed to enter the cabinet. So, did his people enter the cabinet?

"It makes sense," King Gui said with a frown, "but this time, except for Mr. Lu Ge, almost all the people in the cabinet have changed their positions. If we say that the one who has benefited the most is Liu Fuyu."

Because, everyone was more or less implicated, except Liu Fuyu who has been hovering outside the vortex.

In the end, he picked up a bargain and became the second assistant of the cabinet.

"Where is Liu Fuyu from, and what background does he have?" Du Jiuyan asked.

"He is a few years younger than Lu Ge, estimated to be 57 or [-] this year. He was a Jinshi in Tianhua for ten years and a person from Kaifeng. The Liu family in Kaifeng is a rich family. There have been several high-ranking officials in the family since the previous dynasty, and they have a lot of family background."

"One thing," King Gui forgot about it, "Liu Jiao is also Kaifeng's Liu clan, but her entry into the palace has nothing to do with Liu Fuyu, and the two branches of Liu should have produced five clothes."

There is actually such a relationship here.

It seems that no matter who carefully picks and pulls, there is a story.

"I observed it for two days," the lame man said. "Maybe it was too short a time and I didn't find anything. Now that he's in the cabinet, I'll ask my people to keep an eye on it."

Both Du Jiuyan and King Gui thought it was okay.

"There's really nothing to do now," Du Jiuyan said, "I'm going to start preparing for the boxing ceremony. After all, it's time to give gifts and give gifts to the festival, so there must be no less."

She looked at the cripple, "Has Ah Ru contacted you?"

"He said he was walking around, and he may not come back for a while." The lame man said, "He will adjust it. After all, the heavy responsibility of the Cai family rests on his shoulders, and he cannot be willful."

Du Jiuyan muttered, "Ah Ru is so pitiful."

"When he comes back, we have to buy him a good drink."

With Cai Zhuoru's personality, if he goes out for a walk this time, he must be a reborn Cai Zhuoru when he comes back.Otherwise, he won't come back for a while.

"Let's go." Du Jiuyan yawned, "Go home and catch up on sleep."

King Gui followed her, "Let's go together."

The lame man paused at the door, then turned to the backyard.

Du Jiuyan was busy with the Mid-Autumn Festival ceremony, and the court was not idle. In half a month, because of Ren Yanhui's downfall until his unexpected death, the impact on everyone caused many things to become subtle.

Everyone is trembling and cautious.

In the blink of an eye, it was Mid-Autumn Festival, and a family of three went to the palace to greet the queen mother and Zhao Yu, and left lunch.Du Jiuyan has learned to behave well now, eat a little of each dish, never drink wine, smell the tea before drinking it, and sip it in small sips.

The Empress Dowager wiped the trembling corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, pretending not to see it.

This child, still think she has been poisoning?
This poison is very precious, and she doesn't keep it in box after box.

I don't have the spare money and spare time to prescribe medicine for you every day.

After leaving the palace, Xiao Luobo asked curiously: "Mother, I found that you are very cautious when eating at your grandmother's place. Why is that?"

"I'm afraid the Empress Dowager will poison you," Du Jiuyan said with a curled lip, "It's a trick that the Empress Dowager always uses."

Little Luobo was stunned, "It's so dangerous!"

"Speaking of poison, I suddenly thought of something." King Gui stopped, and Du Jiuyan asked strangely, "What's wrong?"

King Gui whispered in her ear: "The night we got married, why could I not bear it in the end..."

"Ah?" Du Jiuyan said, "You mean, your mother drugged you that night?"

King Gui was not sure, because he drank a lot of wine at the time, he was actually very vague about the details behind, and later deliberately forgot.

So, from the time he entered the room to the time he left, he was always vague.

"It's possible," Du Jiuyan said, "If you find another opportunity, you can ask the Empress Dowager."

King Gui frowned and said: "I'll ask now, you can take Xiaoluobo to the Duke Anguo's mansion."

"I'll find you guys later."

As he spoke, he turned back and went back to Kunning Palace.

"My father was also drugged?" Little Luobo suddenly looked at the Queen Mother with admiration, "Isn't it poisonous?"

Du Jiuyan nodded, "It's a medicine that will make people confused."

"Understood," Little Carrot nodded.

The mother and son walked to Duke An's mansion, the side door was open, the woman inside saw their mother and son, and immediately came forward to salute with a smile, "The banquet is all ready, just waiting for the return of the princess and the young master."

"We were late and lost a little time in the palace."

The two of them followed the mother-in-law to introduce them. An Guogong and his family were in the flower hall, and Du Jiuyan saw Mrs. Qin Tai.

This was the first time she met Mrs. Qin Tai after she recognized her relatives.

Sitting beside her were Jiujiang Wang and Chengde Hou Jixianan.

When she came in, everyone stood up and saluted her, and she took the radish to salute the elders.Mrs. Qin looked at her, and said with a half-smile: "I think you won't come back today. It's said that you don't remember the past, it seems to be true."

"It's hard to tell which side is the real home."

Mrs. Qin meant that Du Jiuyan and the Lu Mansion often came and went, and there were a lot of little carrots, but there were very few people coming from the Anguo Mansion.

"If I don't remember, I don't remember. I went to Lu's house more often because of my uncle. He hit it off with Xiaoluobo and became Xiaoluobo's teacher. It is inevitable that more people go." Du Jiuyan had a good temper and explained to Mrs. Qin Tai.

"Oh!" Mrs. Qin was still talking, but An Guogong coughed, interrupted her, and said to Du Jiu, "Sit down quickly. Where is the prince, is there something wrong?"

Du Jiuyan should say, "Before I came, I suddenly had something to do, and I'm going back to Kunning Palace again, and I'll be here later."

"Then wait until the prince arrives before starting the banquet." An Guogong ordered his servants to order food later.

Du Jiuyan sat at the bottom of Qin Wansheng, and the juniors opened a separate table inside, and Little Luobo sat there, chatting with a few children.

"Did you eat with the Holy Majesty for today's meal?" An Guogong asked.

"Yes." Du Jiuyan should have said, "The Holy Majesty is very busy recently, so he ate a few bites in a hurry and left."

An Guogong nodded.

"Ji Yu has a letter," King Jiujiang said suddenly, "She arrived in Annan at the end of May. The wedding date is scheduled for June 22. After getting married, she will be named queen."

Du Jiuyan smiled, and said: "The journey is tiring, where can she get used to it?"

"The letter said it was not bad. Li Xiao also respected her very much. The details of the marriage were handled according to the customs of Dazhou." Jiujiang Wang said, "She mentioned you in the letter, and asked us to tell you."

With Ji Yu's intelligence, he will definitely live well there.What's more, Li Xiao must be a smart person if he can be the king of Annan.

When smart people get along with smart people, even if they have no feelings, they will definitely find a good angle to cooperate with and make themselves comfortable.

"What's the use of you talking to her." Mrs. Qin said, "No wonder Ji Yu was prevented from marrying King Gui at that time. Now that he knew his identity, he deliberately concealed it. Those who didn't know, thought Chengde Marquis and her were enemies."

"What are you talking about now?" An Guogong was unhappy, and frowned, "Jiuyan said it, but she didn't know it at the time."

Mrs. Qin Tai sneered, "Who knows if she knows it or not. Anyway, when she killed her cousin and nephew, she was merciless at all."

Du Jiuyan drank tea and didn't want to quarrel with Mrs. Qin Tai.

"Drink tea," the King of Jiujiang refilled Du Jiuyan's tea, and then glanced over at Little Radish, "We get along well."

Du Jiuyan should say, "All the uncles and aunts are taking care of her."

As she spoke, she glanced at King Jiujiang's little finger, and discovered for the first time that there was a scar on the outside of his right hand with a smooth round surface.

"What's the matter?" King Jiujiang was very keen, he raised his right hand to look at it, and suddenly said with a smile, "Didn't you see it earlier?"

Du Jiuyan said: "This is the first time I saw it, is it hot?"

"I don't remember much. I had a scar when I was a child." King Jiujiang took it lightly, and was about to speak, when King Gui came, and everyone got up and saluted again.

King Gui sat down beside Du Jiuyan, and whispered angrily, "That's right!"

"Really?" Du Jiuyan couldn't laugh or cry, "You and this medicine are really destined."

King Gui snorted.

"What's wrong?" King Jiujiang asked.

"It's a bit unpleasant. It's a trivial matter, and it's irrelevant." King Gui and Anguo said, "Duke Guo hasn't gone to court recently?"

An Guogong nodded, "I've been feeling unwell recently, so I'm recuperating at home."

Speaking of recuperating, everyone can guess that he is also avoiding the shock of the court.

"After Mid-Autumn Festival, you can no longer rest." Anguo said, "When you get old, you will not be as good as before."

King Gui didn't speak, but Du Jiuyan smiled and said, "You are in good health and can live to be a hundred years old."

Duke An laughed loudly, and said, "For the blessing of the concubine."

The food is served and the table is opened.

Mrs. Qin kept a straight face the whole time. After eating, she got up and looked at Du Jiuyan and said, "I have eaten too much, I want to go out for a walk. I don't know if the princess is free, let's go for a walk together?"

King Gui frowned.

"She didn't eat much, so you ask the people around you to accompany you." An Guogong knew that Mrs. Qin Tai would make a fuss, and regretted that he should not have allowed her to eat together.

Du Jiuyan got up and said with a smile, "It's okay, I can go with Mrs. Tai."
