How can this keep the emperor from being angry? What was originally a hand-to-hand victory turned into a humiliating defeat in the end.

Why was the army ambushed on the way to the border? It must be that someone in the court leaked the news.

At that time, in addition to the Shangshu of the Six Ministries and the first assistant of the cabinet, there were also two officials of the Hanlin Yuan who drafted the edict.

Who is the fine work of the imperial court, there are not many people who need to be investigated. As for why it was found out that it was Xue Haozhen's father and son, and why the so-called incriminating evidence in Xue Haozhen's hands was not presented to the saint, it is unknown.

There are no detailed records in these history books, and Gu Chengyu only found a few words in the miscellaneous books. But it's all random speculation, and it's not accurate.

It is said that the Xue family was too popular back then, and vaguely pointed out that it was the fear of the superiors. It is also said that Xue Haozhen blocked the way of a certain official, in order to fall from his high position so that he could ascend to the position.

The person who succeeded Xue Haozhen back then was the teacher Liang Zhirui, so the implicit meaning of that book is like this.

Gu Chengyu flipped through a lot of historical books about the extermination of the Xue family, most of which were wild histories, and the reasons for them were varied, and there were different opinions.

However, now Gu Chengyu has this letter in his hand, and the content of it is related to that battle. And there was also a clever plan, Dayan's soldiers were ambushed on the road, which is the suggestion mentioned in the letter.

It also points out the best places for ambushes, and a copy of the map is attached. Gu Chengyu glanced at it and found that the place pointed out on the map was a dangerous place.

This place is the only way for Zhou Bozhong to lead the army forward, the peaks on both sides of the canyon are steep, and there is a big river in front of it, if you want to cross this road, you need to take a detour.

Zhou Bozhong encountered an ambush, and he was able to pass through here, there were ambushes on three sides, and there was also a river in front of him. Only 20,000 soldiers were killed and wounded, which was already considered Zhou Bozhong's ability.

The content of this letter was roughly the same as what he had seen in the history of books, and Gu Chengyu carefully distinguished the font in it, and his brows furrowed tightly.

He recognized the teacher's handwriting, this handwriting was indeed written by the teacher, and there was nothing that could be questioned about the final signature and private seal, but Gu Chengyu saw a clue in it.

According to Xue Haozhen's statement in another letter, he tried his best to intercept the letter, so the letter should not have been delivered. It is impossible for Xue Haozhen to write a new copy of this letter and hand it over to Daxing.

Why, then, did things turn out the same as the letter said? Could it be that this letter has ever been sent out? This is a big doubt!

And why didn't Xue Haozhen present this letter to the emperor in time? This letter can save the lives of all the soldiers, shouldn't he be presented to the emperor as soon as possible?

Even if the emperor was ready to attack the Xue family at that time, then Xue Haozhen should be presented even more, so as to be the life talisman of the Xue family, and he could prove his innocence.

Gu Chengyu closed his eyes slightly, thought for a long time, and felt that there were two possibilities.

First, Xue Haozhen decided that no matter whether the letter was handed over or not, the emperor would not change the punishment of the Xue family.

The second is that someone is secretly spying on him, and he can't even see the emperor's face.

If it's the first point, it's a bit intriguing. But if it is the second point, Gu Chengyu also thinks that it may not be big.

On the day he heard that the Xue family was raided and exterminated, Xue Haozhen took sick leave on the grounds of physical discomfort and did not go to court.

On that day, Xue Haozhen's son Xue Shiqian was still serving in the Hanlin Academy, and this person was captured in the Hanlin Academy on the same day.

Is it just that this kind of coincidence? Why didn't Xue Haozhen go to court that day, was he really sick?

Gu Chengyu looked at the few letters and lists on the table, if Xue Haozhen had already guessed the ending of the Xue family, he would definitely have a back hand.

How could it be that these letters and lists were all at hand? Gu Chengyu looked at the list on the table and suddenly smiled.

Liu Su'er saw that Gu Chengyu's original face was solemn, but then she suddenly looked relieved, and finally chuckled, as if she no longer took these incriminating evidence to heart, she couldn't help but wonder.

Gu Chengyu put away the incriminating evidence on the table, and then put it into his sleeve.

Even if this is the case, this criminal evidence must not allow Liu Suer to vote for others.

Seeing this, Mother Tan and Uncle Qin couldn't help but step forward and pull Liu Su'er, with a posture of protecting her behind them.

Gu Chengyu saw that Tan's mother and the others were like a big enemy, so they didn't care. Then he smiled and said nothing.

"Master Gu, I wonder how you feel after reading it?" Although Liu Suer was grateful for the kindness of Tan's mother and the two to her, she was unwilling to back down.

"Thoughts?" Gu Chengyu turned his head and pondered for a moment.

"Sometimes seeing isn't always true!" He Shi Shiran walked to the table and sat down, but at this time he took the tea bowl on the table and drank the tea that had been cooled in the bowl.

"What Master Gu said means that the evidence of my grandfather's guilt may not be true? Could it be that my grandfather would still have wronged these people? What's more, there is evidence in it, but it's not my grandfather's words! ”

Hearing that Gu Chengyu denied the incriminating evidence collected by her grandfather, Liu Suer was a little angry.

What's more, Gu Chengyu also hid the evidence just now, and now he is saying it like this, does he really plan to destroy the evidence?

In her opinion, Gu Chengyu just didn't want to admit it! But Gu Chengyu thought she didn't have a backhand? Could she really be that stupid?

Gu Chengyu smiled faintly, "Girl, don't get excited, this evidence will be handed over to the official for safekeeping for the time being." The girl hadn't talked to other officials about it before, did she? Otherwise, it's two things to say if you are still alive now, let alone overturning the case for the Xue family. ”

Liu Su'er couldn't help but be shocked, she was not a dull person, she only needed to think about it carefully, and she could figure it out.

If she goes to other officials in the capital with incriminating evidence, whether those officials will make decisions for her is two words. I can't say that the evidence of the crime will be withheld, after all, who knows if the officials she is looking for will have secretly colluded with Daxing?

Moreover, even if the official does not want to touch this matter, even if he returns the incriminating evidence to her, there is no guarantee that the other party will not leak the news.

At that time, she is a weak woman and has no foundation, how can she resist those jackals, tigers and leopards?

Thinking like this, Liu Su'er couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on her back.

According to the meaning of taking care of Chengyu, he should not kill himself. It's just that if this matter is stopped, she is really unwilling.

"Don't be alarmist about Lord Gu, the little girl has a few heartfelt words, please listen to one or two."

Gu Chengyu raised his eyebrows and nodded.

"Just as a little girl believes in her grandfather, an adult must also believe in your teacher. Tan's mother had been in the capital for more than 20 years before, so she had naturally heard of Lord Liang's deeds. At that time, no one in the court said that Lord Liang was upright, upright, and ashamed to be in the company of corrupt officials and corrupt officials. How could such a good official who cares about the people and the society do such a damaging thing? ”

Liu Su'er looked directly at Gu Chengyu, with the same determination and firmness in her eyes.
