Great Lawyer

Chapter 738 Keeping Your Promise ([-])

The King of Jiujiang glanced at the young man, and the young man also quickly glanced at him.

Immediately, the servant put the wine on the table and withdrew.

King Jiujiang stared at the jug on the table, suddenly picked it up to pour wine for King Gui, and said, "What's wrong with you today, you've become so sentimental after changing your normal routine."

"What do you want me to say, and what can't be brought to next year?" King Jiujiang laughed and said, "You don't want to settle accounts with me when you were young, right? Brother San remembers those things and won't forget them." of."

"Not only will I not forget, but I will always remember your kindness, and I will answer whatever you ask."

"You know, that's not what I'm talking about." King Gui said, "Do you know why I imprisoned my uncle in the clan mansion?"

The King of Jiujiang was stunned, and asked, "Isn't it because Marquis Jingning killed Emperor Father, King Anshan and King Huai? Is there any other reason?"

"Someone was murdered, but not Marquis Jingning." King Gui stared at King Jiujiang closely, "I locked him up not because I thought he was the murderer, but because I was waiting for you to come out."

"So, these 46 days, I have been waiting for a word from you." King Gui said.

King Jiujiang lowered his eyes, finished the wine in the glass, and filled it with the old flagon in front of him. He closed his eyes and said solemnly: "I don't know anything, I don't know what to say to you."

"Where are these things?" King Gui put the things on the table, "Are you going to tell me that you don't know them?"

King Jiujiang stared coldly at the things on the table.

"Drink," he said from left to right, pointing to the wine glass in front of him, and said, "After drinking this glass of wine, I'll tell you."

King Gui looked at him deeply, picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp.

"Let's talk." King Gui refilled a glass for himself, then finished it, "Is it enough?"

King Jiujiang stared at King Gui's face, his eyes fell on his wine cup, and he frowned and said: "Enough!"

"Enough." King Jiujiang drank the wine in his glass in one gulp, and suddenly burst out laughing.

……

Shen Daoru looked at Du Jiuyan and said nothing.

"Think about it." Du Jiuyan said, leaning on the chair, waiting for Shen Daoru to speak.

Shen Daoru suddenly withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "When I was at my worst, someone helped me. It was her recommendation that helped me gain a firm foothold in Yanjing Litigation Firm. Later became president."

"I will always remember this kindness in my heart, and I will never forget it."

After a pause, Shen Daoru said again: "As for who it is, I don't want to tell you. Even if I can't get the fan, I can't take revenge on her."

"When you talk about it, it doesn't make much difference whether you say it or not." Du Jiuyan raised his eyebrows.

Shen Daoru's complexion changed slightly, and he looked at her nervously.

"There are not many people who can recommend you, and from your tone, the other party should be a woman, so the scope is even smaller." Du Jiuyan thought for a while, "You still need to use this The fan protects her life in case of emergencies."

"Then the range will be even smaller." Du Jiuyan said.

Shen Daoru looked at her warily, and said coldly, "You, don't talk nonsense."

"It's a woman, it should be a woman from the harem. You have been the president for 12 years, right? If it was earlier than this, then it wouldn't be the women in the harem now, it would be the late emperor."

"The women around the late emperor still need you to save their lives, so it can't be the empress dowager. If it is the empress dowager, you shouldn't treat me like this, then it is only possible for the concubines and nobles at that time, but you still need your help in strategizing. Yes, those should be the concubines of today. But the princes are dying and injured, but you are not in a hurry to save them with a fan because of this."

"That can only show that the reason why you want this fan urgently is because you are going to die, not because of the urgent need of the other party."

"From the current point of view, the only possible ones are Prince Ning and King Jiujiang. But among these two princes, King Ning's biological mother Concubine Han is still alive, while Prince Jiujiang's biological mother Concubine Ji has passed away, so I am more sure that it is The King of Jiujiang."

"After all, if the other party is still alive, you wouldn't have such an attitude."

Shen Daoru's eyes flickered.

"Back then, Concubine Ji recommended you to settle in Yanjing, and she told you before she died, asking you to find the fan of the late emperor, so as to save the king of Jiujiang someday in the future, is that right?"

"In order to repay her for her kindness, you are obsessed with it and want to get the fan."

Shen Daoru didn't expect that he just said a word, and Du Jiuyan figured out all the rest of the part that he hadn't said, like pulling a thread.

"You are really amazing, I am impressed." Shen Daoru said, "Sometimes I often think that meeting you when I am old may be my destiny."

"I have to believe that no matter what happens in this world, there is a talent for it."

He had been a litigator all his life, but Du Jiuyan was only a few years old, but he made her unable to hold her head up, and it was hard to turn over after a crushing defeat.

"Concubine Ji knew back then that the King of Jiujiang will need a fan to save his life someday in the future?" Du Jiuyan looked at him with frowned eyes, "What did she do, or what did the King of Jiujiang do?"

Shen Daoru said: "I don't know. I am not familiar with her, we have only met once in this life."

"She won't tell me the specifics, and I haven't contacted King Jiujiang in private."

Du Jiuyan felt strange, "Come on, let's calculate together."

Shen Daoru looked slightly startled, afraid that she would continue talking.

"What year did you become president?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Shen Daoru replied: "Tianhua has been around for 24 years."

"When did Concubine Ji and you make this request?"

Shen Daoru didn't speak.

"She died in the 20th year of Tianhua." Du Jiuyan got up and walked around, looking at Shen Daoru, "When Tianhua was 20 years old, the King of Jiujiang was only 13 years old. I have never heard of any major events in the King of Jiujiang. "

"I've never heard of Concubine Ji doing anything important. Poisoning the late emperor? Her time is also wrong." Du Jiuyan muttered.

Shen Daoru was taken aback, and asked, "What did you say, poisoning the late emperor?"

"This matter is confidential, so don't tell it. Someone poisoned you when you died, sir." Du Jiuyan said mysteriously.

Shen Daoru turned pale in shock, and blurted out: "Don't talk nonsense about such things, how could the late emperor be poisoned?"

"It's Qingyan Sanren." Du Jiuyan told him about Qingyan Sanren.

Shen Daoru knew Qingyan Sanren, but they didn't meet each other. It took him a long time to come back to his senses, and he couldn't believe it: "What you said is true?"

"Of course there will be no fakes." Du Jiuyan said.

Shen Daoru was thinking, his mind went blank while leaning on the bed.

Du Jiuyan also knew that he was also wondering why Concubine Ji asked him to find this fan, so as to leave a way out for King Jiujiang.

"Why is Concubine Ji so prepared for a rainy day?" Du Jiuyan looked thoughtfully at the lame man.

"A powerful prince from a foreign family, what crimes do he need a fan to avoid death?" Du Jiuyan said.

The lame man replied, "Like King Anshan and King Huai?"

"But at that time, King Jiujiang was only 13 years old." Du Jiuyan said, "What can he do?"

The lame nods.

"The only explanation is that the King of Jiujiang did not do this, but someone paved the way for him. For example, this person paved the way for the King of Jiujiang to rebel."

The lame man nodded in agreement and said, "It's possible."

"Impossible." Shen Daoru looked at Du Jiuyan, "The Chengde Marquis Mansion is nothing more than a sham, and it has long been nothing but an empty shell."

"It's impossible for the King of Jiujiang not to know." Shen Daoru said.

Du Jiuyan raised his eyebrows and said, "Mr. Shen, in what situation does the King of Jiujiang think that he needs this fan to avoid death?"

"I don't know." Shen Daoru didn't want to delve into it, he just wanted to fulfill his promise to Concubine Ji, as long as his wish was fulfilled.

As for other things, it's not for him to think about it.

"Here you are." Du Jiuyan handed the fan to Shen Daoru, "Leave a souvenir for you."

Shen Daoru looked at Du Jiuyan in disbelief, "You, really give it to me?"

"I didn't want it very much at first." Du Jiuyan said, "If you asked me openly back then, I would have given it to you. Things that are useless to me, I kept by my side just to provoke It's just trouble."

In fact, she did get into trouble because of the fan.

"You..." Shen Daoru took the fan and kept looking at Du Jiuyan, "Are you sure? This is the fan of the patriarch?"

Du Jiuyan waved his hand and said, "Here I am, just a fan."

"Heh!" Shen Daoru laughed suddenly. What he had been thinking about all this time, what he had tried so hard to get, had never expected to be in his hands so easily. He looked at Du Jiuyan and laughed loudly, "You are laughing at the old man!" ?"

Du Jiuyan nodded and said, "It's a bit."

Shen Daoru hugged his fan and fell on the bed with a smile. In the past few years, what he did suddenly became a joke.

Chang An wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know where to start.

"Du Jiuyan," Shen Daoru looked at Du Jiuyan, "You and Lord Gui are investigating the King of Jiujiang, right?"

Du Jiuyan nodded.

"Do you have proof?" he asked.

Du Jiuyan showed him the two rings in his hand.

Shen Daoru's face changed slightly, he sat up suddenly, stared at the two rings, and said, "Where did you get it from?"

"You have it too?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Shen Daoru took out something from his arms, which was exactly the same as the ring in Du Jiuyan's hand.

Du Jiuyan smiled, raised his eyebrows and said, "Did Concubine Ji give it to you?"

"Yes." Shen Daoru smiled wryly and nodded, "The token."

Du Jiuyan tilted her head, something flashed through her mind, she turned her head to look at the cripple, and asked with frowned eyebrows, "What did you think of?"

"You want to say Concubine Ji?" the lame man asked.

Du Jiuyan came over and said, "It's Concubine Ji who is right. I mean, what did Concubine Ji do?"

A woman trapped in the palace, can she do something for her son?

As if something rushed out of the bottle, she could figure it out the next moment.
