The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1101 Colluding with Gentiles
Whenever he dreamed back at midnight, Xue Miao's mind was tossed and turned about the numbness, struggle, resentment, or begging of those clansmen, which almost made him collapse.

The Xue family was punished by nine clans, and the whole family was copied and beheaded. 680 One life, just like what Gu Chengyu said, blood flows like a river!
Xue Miao cried with tears all over her face, but Gu Chengyu didn't care about him, uncovering the scars in his heart, why don't you give him some time to recover?
After a while, Xue Miao finally stopped crying.He calmed down the sadness in his heart, and then looked at Gu Chengyu who was drinking soup leisurely in front of him.

"May I ask Mr. Gu, why did you intervene in this matter? Is it just for political achievements, or for justice?"

Xue Miao looked at Gu Chengyu with some sarcasm in his eyes. Such a young imperial court official wanted to gain benefits from such a big case.This is naive, but also self-defeating.

He admits that Gu Chengyu has some abilities, but this matter is not trivial, and it is not something Gu Chengyu can touch.

People as brilliant as my cousin back then failed to turn the tide of this matter, and in the end they ended up with a lot of gangsters.

This adult looks like he can't even reach the weak crown, can he do this?

"For justice!" Gu Chengyu put down the jade bowl in his hand, speaking righteously.

When Xue Miao heard the words, her eyes immediately turned a little more sneering than before.

"It's too hypocritical to say that. Why do you want to be an official? Maybe you did have the ambition to serve the country and the people at the beginning, but more importantly, you want to become a master and control the fate of others. I am a layman, so I can't be exempt from it. .”

Gu Chengyu wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, knowing that Xue Miao had the intention to speak.

This is the same as when people buy things. You can’t pick and choose when you buy things. Isn’t it too expensive and not affordable?
In fact, such people are the real buyers, and those who don't usually buy are impatient to ask questions.

Xue Miao just dislikes herself now, maybe because she feels that she is young and lacks ability, so she cannot bear such a heavy burden.

Gu Chengyu's words made Xue Miao's expression slow down a bit, he could tell that Gu Chengyu and those people were definitely not in the same group, otherwise it would be impossible to show mercy to him.

Xue Miao sighed, and the look in her eyes was a little sad.

"Master Gu is a good official, but the little old man can't harm you! Those people are so powerful that my cousin couldn't bring them down back then, but ended up like this. Master Gu, my little old man advises you, don't Intervene, stay away from these people, so as not to set yourself on fire!"

What Xue Miao is saying now is from the bottom of her heart. These people are extremely ruthless and always do things unscrupulously.

"What? You don't trust me?" Gu Chengyu saw that Xue Miao mentioned his cousin, so he knew it must be Xue Haozhen.

He has some admiration for Xue Haozhen, and he is also a little curious.

"I heard that Mr. Gu is not only talented, but also talented. Since becoming an official, he has done a lot of practical things for the people and the court. Take this disaster relief as an example, who doesn't say that Mr. Gu is a good official?"

Xue Miao suddenly changed the subject and began to praise Gu Chengyu.

Gu Chengyu raised eyebrows, this person is cunning, Gu Chengyu knew that he still had something to say.

"Master Gu's official career is bound to be open in the future, so why do you need to intervene in this matter? These ghosts and sprites, you can't get rid of them if you get on them. Not to mention the hard work in the end, it will also ruin your bright future. That's all for the little old man, My lord, please think twice."

Gu Chengyu pondered for a while, "Old man Xue reminded me that I understand it, but as an official of the court, since I met him, and I still know that there are other hidden things about what happened back then, how can I not pursue it? Don't you want to let me know?" The truth has been revealed to the world, will you give Xue Shi an innocence?"

When Gu Chengyu first entered the Hanlin Academy, he was once assigned to the Wenhua Pavilion to organize books.

At that time, he found the unofficial history of the Xue family's extermination case, and the records in it were different from those in the history books in many places.

He became interested in this matter, and later read the relevant records in the book history collection.He even looked through the files by compiling the canon.

Xue Miao, formerly known as Xue Haogui, is a cousin of Xue Haozhen's clan who has not yet graduated from the fifth rank, and is a member of the seventh rank in the clan.

Gu Chengyu knew so clearly, that's because Xue Haogui has been living in Xue's residence and taking care of business for Xue's residence.

Xue Haogui's parents died young, and he has studied with the family for several years, but he has no talent.

Later, Xue Haozhen saw that he was very clever, he was also a cousin, and his life was very poor, so he asked him to take care of the business for the Xue family.

Xue Haogui often travels outside on behalf of the Xue family, and Xue Haozhen and his son were powerful back then, so others naturally gave Xue Haogui some face.

Therefore, many people in the capital know Xue Haogui and know that Xue Haogui's status in Xue's residence is not low.But when the house was ransacked, the court did not find Xue Haogui.

Later, I heard that Xue Haogui knew that the Xue family building was about to collapse, so he took a lot of Xue's money and ran away.

There are also unofficial historical records that he died of a serious illness. Anyway, there is no accurate answer.

Therefore, Gu Chengyu speculated that this person might still be alive and be an insider of the collusion with foreigners.

Gu Chengyu always believed that there was a big secret in it, but it was a pity that he couldn't see the detailed file of the third division.Just judging from the records in the history books, there are many doubts in it.

"It has been 17 years since this case, and the Xue family has long since ceased to exist. Since Mr. Gu is not afraid of power, the little old man will tell you about this matter. But the little old man has limited knowledge, please ask Lord Gu understands."

Gu Chengyu made a gesture and asked Xue Miao to sit down and talk.

"Our Xue family can be regarded as a scholarly family. Our cousin Xue Haozhen was a Tanhualang in the 28th year of Emperor Jiaren. He was an official for 23 years. Before he was convicted, he was the chief assistant of the cabinet. His son Xue Shiqian was just a weak crown, and he won the Jinshi. From then on, the Xue family was born as a double Jinshi, and there was no better scenery for a while."

Xue Miao was immersed in her own memories, and her eyes were still shining with pride. This is their Xue family.

"After the cousin official worshiped the chief minister of the cabinet, his power in the court is at its peak. Even Xia's chief minister is not as good as today. It's a pity that the good times don't last long. The Xue family has just enjoyed decades of glory, and then the sky falls. .It was rumored in the court that my cousin was collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country, colluding with Daxing."

Speaking of this, Xue Miao's emotions became agitated.His eyes were full of indignation, and his hands clenched tightly into fists.

Although 17 years have passed, his memory is still fresh.

"Who exposed it?" Gu Chengyu asked the most important question.

"Who? Isn't it the current Chief Assistant Xia Qing?" The hatred on Xue Miao's face made Ming Mo and the others startled. This is really a bloody feud.

Gu Chengyu was not surprised to hear these words. Xia Qing's power in the court is not small, which is inseparable from his ruthless methods.

"It's not just him, there were quite a few people who participated in it back then, including the former chief assistant Liang Zhirui."
