"But I heard from Tan's mother that Yilan was just an eleven or twelve-year-old girl at the time. Would my grandfather trust me and leave me under her care?"

Liu Su'er has always been very puzzled about this. She felt that there might be someone else who her grandfather entrusted her to.

Gu Chengyu glanced at Liu Su'er and thought highly of the other person's intelligence.

However, he did not dispel his doubts about Liu Su'er. Liu Su'er was still a baby when she was taken away.

So many years of living in the countryside or in the city can cultivate such a charm? After all, Liu Su'er's performance is not inferior to that of a lady like Yao Mengxian. Her rules and demeanor are not bad.

Can Mama Tan and his wife alone turn a little girl who grew up in the countryside or the city into a lady?

Girls from aristocratic families have very strict rules and strict upbringing, which reflects the heritage of the aristocratic family. Therefore, whether a girl from aristocratic families can cultivate the nobility has a great relationship with the environment in which she grows up.

Without such a pampering environment, Gu Chengyu found it very difficult to raise a lady.

According to what the three people said just now, it is consistent with what Xue Miao said before. However, Gu Chengyu is not too interested in this matter now.

The emperor had just passed away and the new emperor had not yet ascended the throne. Even if he wanted to help, he could not help. Even if the most likely person to ascend the throne is the prince, can the prince really overturn the emperor's crime against Xue and vindicate Xue?

Doing so not only undermines the majesty of the royal family, but is also disrespectful to the late emperor.

What's more important is that Xue's family doesn't even have a single man alive, so it's impossible to rise again. So what if the verdict is overturned?

Losing the face of the royal family in order to save the face of the Xue family. No matter who ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, they will not be willing to do this.

Furthermore, although Gu Chengyu did not believe that Liang Zhirui would do such a cruel thing to Mr. Xue, who could tell clearly what happened back then? There was no way that there was a hidden secret in it.

But no matter what, the teacher was already involved. He didn't want to revive the incident and affect the teacher's reputation.

And the most important thing now is to find the spies who sneaked in from the Dayan border and the gang of assassins. These are the top priority.

Liu Su'er put aside the doubts in her heart for the time being. After saying so much, she naturally had to tell her purpose.

"Master Gu, my daughter and Mother Tan have been in the capital for many days and have inquired about a lot of news. The person I heard people talking about the most in the city is you, Master Gu. My daughter thinks you are a good official who serves the country and the people.

Now I beg Mr. Gu to clear away the grievances of our Xue family, so that Xue family’s innocence can be restored!"

Liu Su'er knelt down and made a grand ceremony, already bursting into tears.

When Mother Tan and Uncle Qin saw this, they also knelt down and said, "Please, sir, please make the decision for the girl!"

Gu Chengyu frowned, this would probably be a thankless task, it would be of no benefit to him, and it might even ruin his future.

Liu Su'er looked up and saw that Gu Cheng's jade face was unmoved, and she couldn't help but feel anxious.

So she begged again: "Please, sir, bring those villains to justice and give justice to Mr. Xue!"

"I did hear a lot about the Xue family's case back then. It's just that many years have passed since this matter, and the evidence has long disappeared. It's too late to talk about it now. It's a done deal, and it's not my job alone.

Redeemable.”

"I'm sorry that I can't do anything about this!" After saying that, Gu Chengyu stood up and prepared to leave the place.

Now that he knows the other party's purpose, he can just send someone to investigate later. If it is found that what the other party said is true, Gu Chengyu will not take it to heart.

"Sir! As an official of the imperial court, you should work for the welfare of the people and the stability of the country. This matter involves Daxing, how can you turn a blind eye? You know that there are suspicious aspects in this case, but you turn a blind eye. Isn't this a conspiracy?

?”

When Liu Suer saw that Gu Chengyu was leaving, she couldn't help but feel anxious. Her face was filled with frost and she asked Gu Chengyu loudly.

Gu Chengyu sneered when he heard this, "You said that the Xue family was wrongly accused, so what evidence do you have? It's empty talk. How could the court and the emperor allow you to slander like this? The punishment for the Xue family back then was approved by the emperor himself.

, Your Majesty knows everything clearly, how could he still accuse you Xue family unjustly?"

Liu Suer's heart felt cold. Did Gu Chengyu refuse to believe her? Or did he mean that the other party didn't want to care about this matter at all.

Suddenly, she remembered one person. She had seen the things left by her grandfather countless times, and the name of one of them was familiar to her by heart.

Gu Chengyu was about to open the door, but he didn't expect a sharp shout from behind him, "Master Gu doesn't want to ask about this matter, maybe because the person who is having liaison with a foreign country is your teacher Liang Zhirui, right?"

Liu Su'er thought of the news that Uncle Qin had inquired about yesterday. He heard that Gu Chengyu was engaged and his fiancée was Liang Zhirui's granddaughter.

And Liang Zhirui is Gu Chengyu’s teacher. Doesn’t this make it clear that he wants officials to protect each other?

She was wrong, she should not have gone to Gu Chengyu. But they had been wandering around the capital for many days before finally settling on this person. They believed that this person had extraordinary abilities and was very protective of the people, and should be able to clear their grievances.

She thought that the other party was different from other officials, but now she realized that everything was just their wishful thinking.

Everyone has selfish motives. This is a crime of liaison with a foreign country. Who would kill a relative out of justice?

Gu Chengyu paused and turned back to look at Liu Su'er who was kneeling on the ground with a stubborn look on her face.

When Liu Suer saw that Gu Chengyu only looked at her without speaking, the coldness in her eyes gradually turned into frost. She sneered in her heart. Sure enough, Gu Chengyu knew as much about Xue's case as she did.

After restraining the anger that was about to burst out in her heart, Gu Chengyu said after a long while: "Miss Liu, what evidence do you have to prove that my teacher is a traitor to the enemy? When the Xue family was destroyed, you were still a just man.

How much can a born baby know about Xue's case?"

Gu Chengyu was not optimistic about the evidence in Liu Su'er's hands. If the evidence was conclusive, Xue Haozhen would have presented it to the emperor long ago. How could it be kept to this day?

Liu Su'er stood up in a hurry, holding on to the table and staggering.

Tan's mother immediately stepped forward to help, "Girl, you are still injured! If it doesn't work, forget it!"

Tan's mother saw that Gu Chengyu didn't want to care about this matter at all. Besides, this matter involved Mr. Gu's teacher. Could it be that Mr. Gu would kill his relatives out of justice?

This matter cannot be forced. They keep the evidence and can go to other officials to redress their grievances.

Liu Su'er ignored Tan's mother's words and walked towards the footrest beside the kang with chaotic steps.

"Since Mr. Gu wants evidence, I will take out the evidence and show it to Mr. Gu. At that time, Mr. Gu should not try to evade it in every possible way."
