"Hey? Have you heard? This year Xue Hong, the eldest son of the Xue family, won the imperial examination!"
Lu Renjia: "Which uncle of the Xue family? Isn't the male son of the Xue family in Jinling just Xue Bawang?"
Long Tao: "Hi! This Xue Hong is an adopted son of Ziwei Sheren, Mr. Xue. He is an orphan rescued by Mr. Xue from Jiubian. He has been talented since he was a child and has a photographic memory, but he only loves Taoism.
Classic: Determine not to marry for the rest of your life, and focus on pursuing the great road."
Lu Renjia was a little surprised: "Why do you know so much about the internal affairs of this wealthy family?"
Long Tao: "Tch, this is not Mrs. Xue. She was afraid that Xue Hong and his precious son would compete for the family property, so she deliberately let out the news about Master Xue Hong. Do you really think you did it perfectly?"
Lu Renjia: "But this Xue Hong was originally the adopted son of Mr. Xue, how could he compete with that stupid overlord for the family fortune?"
Long Tao: "What if a woman's family has long hair and short knowledge? After Mr. Xue died the year before last, he couldn't wait to force Mr. Xue Hong to start his own business. As a result, Mr. Xue Hong has now won the imperial examination. He is really
After becoming an official, I don’t know whether Mrs. Xue is ashamed or ashamed! She has no regrets!"
…
Since ancient times, Jinling has been a land of romance, with countless wealthy businessmen and families. The spacious road is bustling with traffic and people coming and going.
The streets on both sides sell all kinds of fun gadgets and some steaming snacks.
The sounds of selling and shouting are endless, which can be said to be full of fireworks in the world.
In this prosperous Jinling City, in an inconspicuous single-door courtyard, a boy of about sixteen years old was reading with gusto, holding a "Huangting Scenery Book" in his hand. It was Xue Hong who had just become a scholar.
Xue Hong was originally a student at a traditional Chinese medicine hospital in modern times. His family was well-off, his parents were healthy, and he also had two brothers. Because of a fire in the hotel where he was staying during an outing, Xue Hong died accidentally.
Not wanting to be reincarnated as a baby abandoned on the roadside, he happened to be rescued by Xue Gong, a man from Ziwei who was passing by on business. Seeing that Xue Hong looked pretty and cute, and because he had no son, he adopted him as his adopted son and named him
Xue Hong.
Who would have thought that after adopting Xue Hong, Xue Pan would be born just one year later. Mr. Xue did not treat Xue Hong coldly because of this, but instead liked him even more. Mr. Xue thought that it was Xue Hong who attracted Xue Pan.
Normally speaking, Xue Hong's future path should be to take the imperial examination and save the Xue family.
But after Xue Hong was reborn, there was a book called Da Huang Ting in his mind!
Xue Hong is so familiar with this, the supreme Taoist technique practiced by the protagonist in "Swordsman in the Snow"!
Xue Hong: "Isn't it good for him to practice Taoism and live forever? He has to take a crappy imperial examination! At most, he can be a civil servant. He can see the official but not worship him. It's just convenient for him to do things."
Since childhood, Xue Hong has been practicing whenever he has time. As an orthodox Taoist practice, Da Huang Ting is righteous and peaceful, and he does not have to worry about harming his body at a young age.
Finally, at the age of sixteen, he officially achieved the First Grade Zhixuan Realm! At this point, Xue Hong had the ability to protect himself in this world.
Xue Hong was quite emotional about his breakthrough in Zhixuan at the age of sixteen: "If I had made a breakthrough two years earlier, maybe I could have saved my father."
The death of Mr. Xue is quite strange, but at that time Xue Hong had not yet completed the Dahuang Court and did not have much ability to investigate this matter.
And Xue Gong's last wish after his death was to ask Xue Hong to take good care of Xue Pan and Xue Baochai. In order to fulfill Xue Gong's last wish, Xue Hong has stayed in Jinling until now.
Xue Hong: "The four major families in the capital are constantly entangled, and the various forces are intertwined. Father, you really gave me a problem..."
Just when Xue Hong was sighing, suddenly, the door of the courtyard was pushed open. Before the visitor could enter, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Brother! You live in a remote place. You really don't know me."
What do you think?"
The visitor was about fifteen years old, with a square face. Although not very good-looking, he still had good features. The visitor was none other than Xue Pan, who was known as the Overlord of Silence.
Xue Hong listened to Xue Pan's voice that was like a broken gong, looked at him helplessly, and put down the book in his hand: "Why do you have time to come to my place today? Why don't you go to accompany those girls from Cuihonglou?"
Xue Pan didn't care at all when Xue Hong said this, but suddenly looked a little reserved and lowered his head: "Brother...little brother, I...I got into trouble again. My slave killed someone."
This matter was causing quite a stir, and Xue Hong also heard about it, and finally sighed helplessly: "Sure enough! Is it a conspiracy?"
In this life, Xue Pan was taught by Xue Hong. Although he was still a little willful, he was no longer the self-righteous fool he was in the original work.
Xue Hong instilled the strictness and importance of the law into Xue Pan since he was a child. Xue Pan was a good-natured person, and he was a naturally handsome man. He naturally obeyed his handsome and handsome elder brother.
Even last year, when Xue Pan was fourteen years old, he was born a child under Xue Hong's guidance since childhood.
Don’t think that Tong Sheng is nothing special. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the average age of Tong Sheng was sixteen! The average age of a scholar was twenty-four! Bai Shou Qiong Jing is not a joke!
The current Xue Pan is completely different from the fool in the original work. Under this circumstance, the Xue Pan in the original plot still allowed his subordinates to commit murder.
This shows one thing, this is simply a trap! A trap targeting the Xue family!
Xue Hong vaguely remembered how the case was decided in Jia Yucun in the original work: "It is true that Xue Pan killed someone, but the wronged soul claimed his life and the case was hastily closed."
Fart! Not to mention the prefect of Jinling in Jiayu Village, even the governor of Shuntian Prefecture would not dare to judge the case like this! In ancient times, homicide cases were still taken very seriously, and even if you had to find an excuse, you had to find a decent one.
If Jia Yucun really dares to judge the case in this way, I am afraid he will be impeached and imprisoned in less than a month!
You are a dignified magistrate, and you don't write stories about gods and monsters, asking for your life? You have a rich imagination!
The most important thing is that, both in the original work and now, the Xue family has only one child, Xue Pan. Xue Pan is sentenced to death, which means that from now on, Xue Pan is a black man and has no inheritance rights to the Xue family's property, or even his status.
Talk about being on the same level as the refugees!
Coupled with some clues in the original work, Xue Hong can basically confirm that it was the Wang family's method. They deliberately created so many flaws to whet the appetites of the Xue family! They ate up the Xue family's property bit by bit.
Xue Hong poured a cup of tea from the stone table and handed it to Xue Pan: "Okay, get up. This is not a big deal, at least it has nothing to do with you."
Xue Pan took the cup with both hands and looked at Xue Hong in confusion, blinking at him with a pair of eyes.
Xue Hong: "Let me ask you, did you order your men to beat Mr. Feng?"
Xue Pan quickly shook his head: "Yes, there is. Mr. Feng came up and made noises to me regardless of the facts. My younger brother couldn't get angry, so he ordered someone to teach him a lesson."
Xue Hong: "Then how did he die?"
Xue Pan: "I'm surprised too! Brother, you know it. Since I was a child, you have taught me to be familiar with the law. Murder is a serious crime! How dare I commit it?"
Xue Hong: "Where are those slaves who beat people to death?"
Xue Pan: "I ordered someone to look at it."
Xue Hong nodded: "Okay, you will take them to the Jinling Mansion Office tomorrow and say that it was the unruly slave who made his own decisions and killed Mr. Feng. In front of everyone, apologize to the old slave of the Feng family.
, and compensate them. Don’t even think about escaping or taking the wrong path.”
Xue Pan couldn't believe it: "Is this the end??"
Xue Hong said angrily: "Did you kill the person with your own hands?"
Xue Pan: "No?"
Xue Hong: "Did you order someone to beat him to death?"
Xue Pan quickly shook his head: "Absolutely not!"
Xue Hong: "Then what are you afraid of!"
Xue Pan understood immediately, and hurriedly stepped forward to give Xue Hong a pat on the back: "Hey, hey! Brother, you are still awesome! Fortunately, I didn't listen to my mother, but came to see you."
Xue Hong frowned: "What? What solution did Mrs. Xue come up with for you?"
Xue Pan: "My mother said she would send someone to Beijing to ask my aunt and her family to write a letter to the prefect of Jinling to let them settle the matter."
Xue Hong's face was full of disbelief, looking like a fool: "She... what did Mrs. Xue think? This case was originally characterized as a slave who deceived the master and killed someone. It would be over if those servants were sent to the official."
"If you really do what Mrs. Xue does, you will become guilty even if you are not guilty!
If you form cliques for personal gain, bribe officials privately, and flout the law, there are even people who want to harm you, just ask the imperial censor to report this to the emperor, and you will be considered guilty of deceiving the emperor!"
