Chapter 171

Gu Xiuyuan actually didn't know if something happened, but in order to find out the truth as soon as possible, he could only tell the truth.

"Oh? What idea?"

"My son looked through the books in Zangshu Pavilion and found that before the first emperor, he would send officials to inspect southern Xinjiang every ten years, but after the first emperor ascended the throne, there is no relevant record."

Gu Xiuyuan felt a little uneasy, wondering if there were any royal secrets.

The emperor was stunned when he heard this, "Yes, that's right, since you mentioned it, there is nothing wrong with it."

After speaking, the emperor got up and walked in front of Gu Xiuyuan, and said, "This matter is because of the last official who went to southern Xinjiang for inspection. That official was the number one scholar in the new department. The daughter of a rich family took a fancy to it.

The girl wanted to marry the official, but the official had a family, so she rejected the girl, but who knew that the girl didn't give up, and even poisoned the official. After returning to the capital, he reported to the late emperor's father.

At that time, the emperor was furious and ordered the officers and soldiers to go to southern Xinjiang to arrest the girl and her family, and give the officials recuperation. Even so, the emperor sentenced the girl to exile, and the family was also punished for negligence.

You also know that Southern Xinjiang has always protected its weaknesses, and the customs and habits are different from those in the Central Plains. I didn't expect this incident to become such a big deal.

That girl's family can be considered a big and prestigious family in southern Xinjiang, and there are quite a few members of the clan. Many people think that it is because the officials made a big fuss, so they are very hostile to the court. In addition, the girl seems to have died on the way. This angered the people of southern Xinjiang even more.

It was also because of this that after the first emperor ascended the throne, he did not send anyone to Southern Xinjiang, and at that time the relationship between Southern Xinjiang and the imperial court was extremely rigid, and the imperial court did not dare to take risks. "

Gu Xiuyuan didn't expect that it wasn't a secret of the royal family, but an evil relationship.

"And what about the official?"

"The official was poisoned, and the best treatment time was delayed. Although the poison was detoxified later, his body was still seriously damaged. Later, when he heard that the girl died on the road, he felt guilty and went to the hospital early. went.

The girl was sentenced to exile because of her own fault, but she didn't want her life. Who knew that something like this happened in the middle. I didn't kill Boren, and Boren died because of me. The official couldn't let go of his knot, alas! "

Gu Xiuyuan did not expect such an ending, but...
"People in southern Xinjiang are good at poison. Since ancient times, medicine and poison have not been separated. That girl should have the ability to protect herself. How could she die?"

The emperor shook his head and said he didn't know, "I don't know. It seems to be an accident. Many people died in that accident. I didn't know the details back then. After so many years now, even if someone knows, I'm afraid I'm not alive anymore."

"Then, Father, do you think it is feasible to send people to southern Xinjiang now?" Gu Xiuyuan asked tentatively.

"It stands to reason that it should be okay after so many years, and the relationship between the imperial court and Nanjiang has gradually improved in recent years, but I am worried that if I send people there, will it remind Nanjiang of what happened back then?"

The emperor was a little hesitant, now the relationship is finally getting better, just in case
