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

Chapter 495 Guo Moruo

Guo Moruo looked at Gu Chengyu when he heard the sound, although the other party deliberately lowered his voice, she could still tell that this person must be young.

"The little girl, Mrs. Guo, has never met her benefactor."

Gu Chengyu raised his eyebrows, "Your grandfather told you the truth?"

Since he is called Engong, he must know about this matter well. It seems that this woman is not as weak as she appears.

That's right, the person who can be selected by Mrs. Guo to keep him is such an ordinary person.

Gu Chengyu still admires Old Master Guo's wisdom.Presumably he already knew that his son would not listen to persuasion and insisted on going his own way, so he made preparations early.

Tonight, he will definitely not return without success.

"Since Ms. Guo already knows the ins and outs of the matter, let's speak bluntly! What's the point of calling me here?"

Guo Moruo seemed to be thinking about the Guo Mansion again, with a sad expression on his face, holding back his tears.

"Engong met my father before, right? I think you are in my father's hands. Except for the fraud case, you didn't get any important clues."

Gu Chengyu was a little surprised when he heard that, this girl knows a lot!Who told her this?
It couldn't be Guo Shi, because after Guo Shi was captured by him, he was handed over to Hu Maoshen, and he had no chance to contact his family members. The only candidate was Mrs. Guo.

Gu Chengyu couldn't help but became interested. Mr. Guo left behind some important information.

"The girl is right."

Guo Moruo glanced at Gu Chengyu, then pursed his lips, "There is nothing wrong with handing over those clues to benefactor, but the little girl has something to ask, and this is what my grandfather ordered before our siblings left."

Of course Guo Moruo would not hand over those letters to this person easily, and their siblings are helpless now.

Although he couldn't get out of the yard, he couldn't know the current situation of the family.But don't even think about it, if her father does such a wrong thing, it is very possible that the whole family will be executed.

Besides, her grandfather once told her that the game in the officialdom, who cares whether you are wronged or whether it is true?As long as it can pull you down, it will do anything.

Her father was among them, so naturally he couldn't avoid it.This time, she can only blame her father for being too eager for quick success, becoming someone else's chess piece, or a chess piece that is thrown away when he runs out.It's even more to blame for her father's obliteration of conscience, no bottom line, and ultimately harming others and himself.

It just hurt the family, and I don't know what happened to my mother and grandfather, I'm afraid they will never see each other again in this life.

Guo Moruo had a pale face, and clasped her hands tightly. The two younger brothers are the hope of the Guo family. She has to protect them when they grow up. Nothing will happen to them.

Gu Chengyu didn't see the other two babies as soon as he entered the room, he thought they were asleep.This request must be to take care of their siblings, right?

Guo Shi's situation was different from Wan Xuenian and the others. Wan Xuenian and the others were wronged. If they had sufficient evidence, it would not be impossible to reverse the case in the future.

In fact, the evidence is conclusive now, but the emperor protects it, and the others are helpless.We can only wait for the future to find the opportunity.

However, Guo Shi's charges were real. It was true that he slandered the two adults for participating in the fraud case, but he did not wrong him.

Therefore, Guo Moruo's request is definitely not to reverse the case, so the only thing left is to take care of their siblings.Gu Chengyu originally planned to send them to a place far away from the capital, so he kept his promise.

If you want to take the things in the little girl's hand now, I'm afraid it will add a lot of trouble in the future.

"You might as well tell me, girl."

Guo Moruo was a little apprehensive, she also knew that their siblings were troublesome.Care is not something to talk about, they are family members of prisoners, if they want to live incognito, they have to open a new account, which is troublesome.

Besides, the crime of harboring the family members of offenders will always be hung above the head, for fear of being discovered in the future.

But she herself is still young, and needless to say her two younger brothers, even if she goes to a remote mountain depression in the future, it will be difficult to survive.One is that there is no household registration certificate and road guide, and the other is that it is easy to be bullied.

After deliberating for a while, she finally opened her mouth, "Please ask Engong to take care of our siblings for ten years, it only takes ten years."

After ten years, Brother Lian will grow up and be able to take care of himself and support a family.

Of course Gu Chengyu was not surprised by this request, but ten years is too long, the three siblings are a big burden, and it depends on whether the things Guo Moruo offers are worth it.

"It depends on Miss Guo's sincerity."

Guo Moruo did not speak, and took out a letter from his pocket. The new envelope was blank, and the seal was even opened.It seems that this is written by Mrs. Guo, the last trump card left for Guo.

Ming Mo stepped forward to take it from Guo Moruo, and then handed it to Gu Chengyu.Gu Chengyu took it, and pulled out the letter paper from the envelope. The paper was very thin, so he opened it and looked at it quickly.

When Guo Moruo took the envelope from Gu Chengyu, he paid attention to Gu Chengyu's hand.These are a pair of white and slender hands, she can be sure that this person is not a general, but a scholar.

The letter was written by Mrs. Guo, which described all the process of Guo Shi's contact with the mysterious person, and also made some analysis.In the end, Mrs. Guo came to the conclusion that this person was probably the powerful Xia Qing.

Of course, there is no evidence to prove it, the above is only a guess, but Gu Chengyu thinks it is very possible.Finally, at the end of the letter, he wrote the most crucial words, Mr. Guo once met Xia Qing privately with the Fourth Prince.

That happened two years ago. After that, Mrs. Guo sent someone to investigate Xia Qing and the Fourth Prince to see if they had colluded.

But until his death, Mrs. Guo didn't find out why, but he firmly believed in his own judgment.

That means that the Fourth Prince and Xia Qingzao have colluded together.

The fourth prince did not leave the mansion, and only went to the court for about one month a year. On the surface, it seemed that he really had no contact with Xia Qing.But this did not hinder Mrs. Guo's judgment, but he never told Guo Shi about this matter.

Of course he is aware of his son's disposition, impulsive and greedy, yet easy to be deceived, that's why Mrs. Guo kept it a secret until now.

Gu Chengyu put down the paper, his thoughts turned.He felt that Mrs. Guo's judgment was right or wrong.However, this cannot be verified yet, and we will have to observe carefully in the future.

Based on Xia Qing's private meeting with the fourth prince, it can be judged that the relationship between the two is definitely not what it appears on the surface.But he doesn't really believe that the two are close allies, like grasshoppers on the same rope.

How cunning is Xia Qing?Needless to say about the situation of the fourth prince, will Xia Qing take a fancy to the fourth prince?Even if he wanted to put all his eggs in one basket and get the power of the dragon, it would be impossible to just tie himself to the fourth prince's boat, which could be seen from his attitude.

Gu Chengyu has never met the fourth prince, so he can only guess in his heart, anyway, there are only two possibilities.
