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

Chapter 1266 Doubtful Candidates

Gu Chengyu looked at the sea bowl in front of him, his eyebrows twitched.The folk customs here are really strong, and they don't use wine cups for drinking, but sea bowls.

Under Qi Huanyu's gaze, Gu Chengyu picked up the sea bowl and drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp.

"This wine is indeed very strong, and it is indeed different from the one in the capital." Gu Chengyu smiled, put down the bowl in his hand, and the girl waiting at the side immediately stepped forward to fill it up for him.

Qi Huanyu's eyes turned around on the wine bowl in front of Gu Chengyu, so bold, he was a little surprised.

"I didn't expect Mr. Gu to drink so well. It's really unexpected. It seems that he is also a frequent drinker. Come on, let's have another bowl. This wine is also a rare thing at the border. Gu Daren should try it."

Qi Huanyu raised the sea bowl to Gu Chengyu, and after beckoning, he drank it all in one gulp.

Gu Chengyu frowned slightly, this person looked very enthusiastic, but it was unusual for him to drink as soon as he came up.He only wet his lips with the bowl of wine just now, and poured the rest into the space.

He is not familiar with this person, let alone with such a sensitive identity, who knows if the other party will drug the wine?
"General Qi, I came to find General Qi this time because I have important matters. The emperor sent me to the border gate just for the purpose of the Daxing thief sneaking into Dayan. I don't know what happened to the border gate? Yuheguan It is the first hurdle, does General Qi know the inside story?"

Gu Chengyu didn't serve the wine bowl, but mentioned the purpose of finding it.He doubted that if he didn't speak first, this person could keep playing crazy and foolish.

"Oh! General Ben did discover something about this before, but he also had some speculations. But there is no proof, so don't make rash assertions!" Qi Huanyu put down the bowl in his hand, and his eyes became serious as he looked at Gu Chengyu stand up.

"Then I don't know what General Qi found out? Why don't you say it out and let's discuss it together?" Gu Chengyu also got serious, putting on an attitude of listening attentively.

Qi Huanyu suddenly fell silent, and it took a long while before he said: "It involves a lot, not only Yuhe Pass, but also Yumen Pass. However, no evidence has been collected so far, and it is difficult for this general to reveal it. Please take care of it." My lord Haihan."

"This official is acting according to the order, and I came here for this matter. General Qi, now the border is under attack, and some of them have sneaked into the court. If we don't investigate carefully, our Dayan is in danger. General Qi, please don't hide anything. , just state your guess."

Qi Huanyu looks rather handsome, guarding the border all the year round, with a full sense of murderousness and toughness on his body.However, Gu Chengyu always felt that this person did not give him a sense of integrity.

Maybe it's preconceived!Or maybe this person gave him a very smooth feeling, anyway, Gu Chengyu didn't have a good impression of this person.

"Since Mr. Gu said so, let me tell you about it! In fact, I have found some clues before, and one of them is General Huwei Ren Xiuguang from Yumen Pass."

Qi Huanyu leaned forward, looked left and right, and lowered his voice before saying a name.

"Who? General Ren?" Gu Chengyu was taken aback for a moment. Ren Xiuguang was the chief general stationed at Yumen Pass, so he thought it was unlikely that it was a meticulous work.

However, this person's words must not be aimless, after all, even if he is framed, there must be dirty water poured on it, right?If you can't be wronged by empty words, who will believe it?
"It's him! It's a long story. Daxing found a prince from the people some time ago. I don't know if Mr. Gu has heard of it?"

As soon as Gu Chengyu heard this, he knew that the prince must be Gu Wanqian.The time was right, Gu Wanqian was Daxing who came back some time ago.

"I did hear about it after I came to the border. I don't know if it has something to do with it?" Gu Chengyu didn't show any emotion when he suddenly heard about an acquaintance, and it was still in this situation.

"I heard that this prince was exiled among the people before, and he has just been found now. Originally, the Daxing royal family already had eight princes, and with him, there would be nine. One can imagine how fierce the royal dispute must be. But who would have thought that this prince would fall into the eyes of Prince Dumin as soon as he recognized his ancestor and returned to his clan. Now that he has the support of Prince Dumin, he is already able to stand up to other princes, and even faintly surpass him."

Since Gu Wanqian left last time, this was the first time Gu Chengyu heard from him.It is undeniable that Gu Wanqian was relieved to be able to gain a foothold in Daxing.But that's all!They are already strangers.

"This general just found out that he had a relationship with General Ren. Mr. Gu may not know that General Ren and him are cousins ​​and nephews!"

Qi Huanyu picked up the wine bowl and poured down half of it, then squinted at Gu Chengyu, wanting to carefully observe Gu Chengyu's reaction.

"Since you also said that the prince and General Ren are cousins, there will always be entanglements. I wonder if General Qi has found any strong evidence?"

Gu Chengyu felt that this reason was not tenable and not sufficient.

"Master Gu, don't you think this counts? The war between Dayan and Daxing is about to start, and there has been no peace for a long time. Even if they are cousins, they shouldn't have any contact. What's more, they met more than once, let alone by chance .”

"One more thing. General Ren was originally Princess Yilun's cousin. The two were childhood sweethearts and grew up together. We outsiders really don't know how many entanglements there are, but this deepens the suspicion of General Ren. Back then they had Oral marriage contract, but the princess was forced to make a kiss. Who knows if General Ren will still remember his old love, the old man's child may become his sustenance in his heart."

After hearing this, Gu Chengyu had to say that Qi Huanyu made a lot of sense.But he wants to say, how many infatuated people are there in this world?How many years have passed, no matter how deep the feelings are, have they faded away?

What's more, the Sri Lankan has gone, how much affection can there be?That is, touching the scene and hurting it, it is rare to pull it out to recall it, and the rest is a thing of the past.

Gu Chengyu chuckled, "Let's not say that the princess has long passed away. How many years have passed, maybe you are overthinking it. Could it be that General Qi has evidence that General Ren colluded with the prince?"

"They were very careful. At the beginning, the general sent people to follow them, but they lost them every time. They never exchanged letters, which made it difficult for people to start. That's why I said that there is no evidence. It depends on Mr. Gu to investigate the case. After all, you He is an official of Dali Temple, and he is much better at investigating cases than us big bosses."

Qi Huanyu talked a lot, and only talked about the relationship between Gu Wanqian and Ren Xiuguang. Is this digging a hole for him, or revealing clues to him?

Gu Chengyu didn't know, so he had to check it out by himself.Even if the other party gave him the so-called evidence, Gu Chengyu couldn't fully believe it, and still had to find his own way to confirm it.

"This matter can't be sorted out in a day or two, let's talk about Yin Du Yushi's matter now!" Gu Chengyu changed the topic naturally.
