Facts have proved that Su Yueling treats everyone equally.Don't these families like to walk hand in hand?Then she let them walk neatly.

As a result, none of these aristocratic families could escape, and the houses were burned together.Among them, the Li family was the lightest. The servants of the Li family put out the fire in a timely manner, and only a corner was burned. The Xie family was the worst, the warehouse was burned, followed by the Shen family, both yards were reduced to ashes. .

However, there were no casualties in these few.

But for Xie Buchuan, they would rather die a hundred servants than burn their good house like this.After the servant dies, he can still buy a new batch from Ren Yazi for training, which is not worth as much as one of his white jade chessboards.

Knowing that what these birds do can be trained, they know better than anyone that this is no accident at all.Those birds deliberately tricked them!

But after these birds set off these fires, they ran directly into the sky.They can't even shoot them down for extra food to vent their anger.

They can only discuss the follow-up in the Li family who suffered the least loss.Infectious smallpox and so on must be put aside now, and we must first discuss how to deal with the next crisis.

"The emperor must have known about our plan and burned our house. This is a warning to us."

Xie Buchuan took a deep breath, trying to calm down his emotions, but judging from the hideous veins on the back of his hands, he still couldn't calm down.

"Even if he knew, there should be no conclusive evidence, otherwise how could we stay here."

The Patriarch of the Li family has already started to retreat in his heart. If the Li family declines, it is better than being ransacked.If they continue to follow Xie Buchuan's words, they are afraid that they will follow in the footsteps of the Wang family.

As if seeing his retreat, Xie Buchuan looked up at him, "Do you think the emperor will let you go if you retreat?"

"I'm afraid all of us have already been recorded by him."

The Xie family made the most small moves, and they knew they would be the first to be liquidated.Xie Buchuan naturally wanted to drag the other families to continue building momentum for himself, so that the emperor would be afraid and dare not make a move. Now he has no other choice but to gamble.

The Patriarch of the Li family was originally hesitant and gentle, but when he was said like this, he immediately lost his mind.

After Xie Buchuan frightened him, he said lightly: "Even if we get the evidence, it has nothing to do with us. Our servants made their own claims without telling us, and we don't know about it."

That is to launch a few scapegoats.The deeds of sale of the whole family of those servants are in their hands, and it is impossible to betray them.

When other people think about it, this is indeed the truth, and their hearts are much calmer.

It's just that Xie Buchuan's calmness only lasted for one day.

The next morning, he received the news that the two students had been taken away.Not only that, the power that the Xie family and other aristocratic families had operated in the palace and in the capital for hundreds of years was wiped out overnight.

Without these eyeliners, he suddenly became blind.It wasn't until the housekeeper of the Xie family was forcibly taken away by the servants of the Jingzhao Mansion that something was wrong.

In this short day, the news that the Xie family, the Shen family and other families were burned by birds spread all over the streets and alleys of the capital at an extraordinary speed.

As soon as I entered the teahouse, there were storytellers talking about this strange thing in rhythm.

"Have you heard about the Xie family and the Shen family?"

"Of course, we saw it with our own eyes! We were worried at first. How dangerous is this bird with fire in its mouth? If it falls into our house, I dare not think about it. But I didn't expect these birds to become spirits. They are all scourges." Families like the Xie family and the Shen family. These families are all famous and promising aristocrats. Tell me, what immoral things did they do, you can’t even look at the birds."

"I know this! My family lives on the street of Xie's house, and I saw it with my own eyes! Those birds flew all the way, and only stopped when they reached Xie's house. Some of them continued to fly forward, and the other part threw fire at Xie's house. The servants of the Xie family are also very bad. It seems that they are used to being slack at ordinary times. They didn't find out until the fire was too big. As for the immoral things done by the Xie family, it must have something to do with the library. My two sons said They saw that the housekeeper of the Xie family was taken away by the government, and said that they bought the students to sprinkle oil and prepare to burn the library. You think, this is a lack of virtue. There are so many books in the library, if it is burned, it will be a lot of loss. It’s terrible, no wonder God has to punish them.”

This so-called neighbor of Xie's family said with a determined expression of "I have an inside story", and made everyone around him stunned for a while.After hearing this inside story, everyone's fists were hardened.

"Fortunately, they are still a thousand-year-old family, and they can even do things like burning books. They just don't want us ordinary people to have free books to read. They are only allowed to have books to read, and we are not allowed to read and read. ?"

"Why didn't these black-hearted people be burned to death inside?"

Everyone didn't feel sympathetic anymore, but they still felt that it was cheaper for them to just burn down the house.

This "insider story" was passed on from one to another, and spread at a rapid speed.

Literati Qingliu's side also exploded.They value books very much, and those who don't cherish books on weekdays will be rolled their eyes by them, let alone the act of burning books, which will be infamous forever.

Although it was the housekeeper of the Xie family who was taken away, not Xie Buchuan.But everyone is not a fool, why don't they understand, if there is no instruction from Xie Buchuan, the people below would dare to do this without telling him?

So a few days later, the censors opened their arms and impeached desperately.

Impeachment is not only safe, but also shows their strength of character, so we must show it well!
Xie Buchuan and his forces were wiped out, so they were already in a dilemma.Now it is not only notorious among the people, but also in Qingliu, which makes them extremely painful, but they can't find a way to crack it.

The other families wanted to cut off from Xie's family, but they couldn't help but Xie Buchuan had their hands full of things, so they could only advance and retreat with him in pain.

Seeing that these aristocratic families provoked the anger of the crowd, the emperor Rong Ji also took action, and directly cut their titles, and those who should be demoted will be demoted.Officials from aristocratic families already occupy a lot of positions, but now that these officials have been cut off, people from other families can't wait to elect their own people to these positions of real power.

Everyone was very happy to share this piece of cake, how could they think of complaining for the Xie family and the others.They took advantage of the opportunity to focus on the Xie family's property, thinking about eating a few more bites of meat.

Rong Ji also ordered that the five generations of the Xie family, the Shen family, the Li family, the Zhou family, and the Yang family were not allowed to participate in the imperial examination.

For them, this is the real punishment.
