Chapter 856

"A scholarly family?"

Chu Qing, who was riding a horse, looked at the shining golden plaque of Xu Mansion and half-smiled.

After riding for half a day, Chu Qing led a group of young men to the outside of Xu's house on Xunyang Road.

According to the "informant" secret report, the Xu family is the family most resistant to people joining the army in Xunyang Road.

In the long-term battle against aristocratic families, Chu Qing has learned a principle: when there are many, he will grab the biggest one and beat him to death, thus acting as a deterrent.

There were more than twenty uninvited guests like Chu Qing, all riding tall horses and wearing weapons. The disciples were frightened when they saw them. Chu Qing gave his name, just two characters, surname Chu and Ming Qing, and the disciples ran into the house.

, a distance of more than forty steps, and fell three times.

Wang Tongtong handed the water bag to Chu Qing, and said with a wry smile: "Sir, this Xu family, this Xu family... The Xu family is more different than other aristocratic families. If they act rashly, I'm afraid... they will be criticized."

Not to mention Chu Qing ignoring him, even Fu San didn't say a word.

Even before coming to the border, Chu Qing had learned all about the Xunyang Taoist family closest to the border.

The Sun family, the richest family in Xunyang Dao, has countless fertile lands that have been inherited for hundreds of years. The Wu family has no good things, and they are all traitors who will never redeem themselves. Only the Xu family, which ranks behind the Sun and Wu families, has thousands of people.

The cavalry never found any incriminating evidence.

It's not that there is no evidence of guilt, but in Xunyang Dao, even among all the Dao in the world, a family like the Xu family is very different and strange.

The head of the Xu family, Xu Shiqing, is over seventy years old. He was the crown prince's grand master at that time, not the crown prince's junior master. He worked until he was over sixty and then retired. He has been a great Confucian scholar all his life. In terms of morality, he has almost nothing to criticize.

place.

However, there are still big differences between the Xu family and the Tao family.

They are all engaged in education and cultural undertakings. The Tao family plays music every night, making jingle noises. They are poor, otherwise Tao Shaozhang would not be able to kill the Li family just because of a horse.

The Xu family is different. The Xu family is both famous and wealthy, with countless slaves and fertile land. This means that Xu Shiqing has retired. If he had not retreated, the old man's influence would not be much worse than that of Gong Cheng'an, the ghost who deceived the world and stole his reputation, and he was also far away from the power in Beijing.

The core circle is located in Daochu, Xunyang. Many of the family's children are officials in the court, and their disciples and former officials are all over the world. When the Supreme Emperor sees him, he must respectfully call him Master Xu.

There is no shortage of money, money comes from the right way. Generations of the Xu family have struggled for more than a hundred years. Since the founding of the dynasty, they have taken root in Xunyang Road. Whether it is fertile land or caravans, there is nothing wrong with the money they earn.

There is no shortage of rights. No one dares to offend anyone, and no one dares to offend the Xu family. If you want to do anything, many officials in the court will give it the green light.

The reputation is even more so. There are so many wild great scholars, just like experts. People and dogs dare to say that they are experts, but Xu Shiqing is an officially certified great scholar.

Chu Qing came to the door because of one thing: recruiting troops!

At least one-third of the troops at the border were recruited from Xunyang Road, and in Xunyang Road, the Xu family was the most resistant to letting people join the army.

Every year when the imperial court and the border army recruit troops, the Xu family is the first to come out and rebel. Because they are a wealthy family, and with their status, the local government and many aristocratic families are led by the Xu family, and all kinds of troubles are made, making it difficult for the border army to recruit troops.

.

Other aristocratic families are not willing to let people join the army because they are afraid that there will be no leeks to cut, but it is meaningless for the Xu family to sing the opposite, because it has nothing to do with the Xu family. The people they hire do not have hidden households, and whether the border army recruits troops or not does not matter.

Any core interests of the Xu family are like playing devil’s advocate just for the sake of playing devil’s advocate.

Therefore, if he wants to resolve the issue of conscription, the Xu family is a hurdle that Chu Qing cannot overcome.

Of course, whether the Xu family is a hurdle in front of Chu Qing or not, we won’t know until we meet them.

After a while, a young man came out cheering.

The young man was only twenty-two or three years old. He had the obvious characteristics of a scholar of the Chang Dynasty. He was well-mannered, but very thin, but his appearance was extremely handsome, which was in line with the general aesthetics of the Chang Dynasty.

Chu Qing lay on the horse's back, turning the whip in his hand unconsciously, half-smiling.

The young man looked gloomy, walked out of the threshold quickly, and saluted.

"Student Xu Tianchen has met Commander Chu."

Wang Tongtong whispered: "Xu Tianchen, the youngest son of the Xu family, there are rumors that this son is a Wenqu star from the sky who descended to earth. He is extremely talented and knowledgeable. Although he is young, no one in the Taoist community in Xunyang knows it. Even if He is also quite talented and famous in Beijing, and he is most favored by Xu Shiqing."

"Oh." Chu Qing looked Xu Tianchen up and down: "Now that the big one can't come out, let the small one come out and take the lead. Call Tony to come out... No, call Xu Shiqing to come out."

Even though he knew Chu Qing's name, not only did Xu Tianchen's face show no fear, but there was a bit of anger rising on his face.

"Master Chu, why are you here?"

"No matter how expensive it is, I will do it... No, I won't do it to anyone, I will do it to Xu Shi..."

Chu Qing banged his head. He was full of wind on the way here, and he was a little embarrassed to speak: "Call your grandpa, I have something to discuss."

"The master of the house is unwell and should not see guests."

"Really? When did you get sick?"

"just."

Chu Qing sneered again and again. He had heard this excuse many times. He was sick as soon as he arrived. He was fooling a fool. He said that he had just fallen ill in front of him. This was obviously not giving him face.

In fact, Xu Tianchen really wasn't lying, his grandfather really just fell ill.

I was just drinking tea in the house, but the doorman ran in in a panic and said that Chu Qing, the commander of Qianqi camp's living beasts, was here, and he came in person. Then Xu Shiqing made a "ga" sound and whipped him over. I don't know if I choked on my tea or was frightened, but I haven't woken up yet.

"Okay, just be sick. The commander is waiting here. When he wakes up, let him come out to see me."

"Commander Chu."

If not young people, how can we call them young people if they are not energetic? Xu Tianchen can be said to be a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. He snorted slightly: "My Xu family is not a place where Commander Chu can run wild as he pleases. "

"Be bold!"

Lin Kui whipped out his two swords, waited for Chu Qing to wink, and then dismounted and killed the entire Xu family.

Xu Tianchen still showed no fear on his face: "If Commander Chu has something to discuss with my Xu family, the student can make the decision. The head of the family will not be able to meet guests."

"Hey, you can make the decision." Chu Qing winked at Fu San and said, "Read his rights."

Fu San recalled for a moment, and then said loudly: "Xu Tianchen, on behalf of Qianqiying, I am now announcing your rights. You have the right to remain silent. If you do not remain silent, then everything you say can be used as your You also have the right to invite one of the witnesses when my young master talks to you...please invite someone..."

Fu San forgot his words and looked at Chu Qing, who reminded him: "Lawyer."

"Yes, you have the right to invite a green corpse to be present when my young master talks to you. Do you fully understand your above-mentioned rights now?"

Xu Tianchen looked confused.

What the hell?
