When I woke up, my whole family was in rebellion!

Chapter 69 The Mid-Autumn Family Banquet
No matter what decision Gu Xingzhi makes, Eunuch Liu fully supports it.He is already half of his body about to be buried in the ground, and his only wish is to be able to go further with Gu Xingzhi.

"Three days later, the emperor will hold a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the other palace. The decree has already been issued. Apart from the three highnesses, the concubines only brought six. It is said that the people are suffering this year, and the palace should not be extravagant. It is necessary to save money."

It's cool in late summer and autumn, but this year it seems that because of the severe drought, the autumn tiger came very early.Although the sun is not shining brightly, if you go outside, you will be sweating profusely and sweltering hot.At this time in previous years, Gu Sheng had already gone to another palace to escape the summer heat.

But this year, it was delayed due to various things.

For the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, the princes in Beijing are also invited.Although King Huai no longer belonged to the royal family, the old King Huai was the only king of the opposite sex at the banquet. As his descendant, Xie Pi was also eligible to participate in the family banquet.

Tangquan Biegong is built on the mountain. This season, the mountain is cool, which is a good place to escape the heat.Moreover, there are some small springs in this Tangquan Palace. Even in summer, the water is icy and cold. If you can soak in it, no matter how hot it is, it will be completely washed away!

Gu Xingzhi lowered his eyes, and suddenly remembered something, "I'm afraid this family banquet will not be peaceful."

Eunuch Liu was suspicious, the family banquet hadn't even started yet, how could His Highness have predicted it?There were family banquets in previous years. For the sake of the emperor, even the crown prince and the second prince would not dare to make any small moves, so as not to offend the emperor.

There are so many things happening this year, and the emperor also wants to use the name of the family banquet to be lively and lively. No one should look for it at a time like this, right?

Gu Xingzhi smiled contemptuously, "Bring more people, just say that I am unwell and need someone to take care of me."

Anyway, it's not a day or two for him to pretend to be sick. If so, he will find some convenience for himself.Although Eunuch Liu didn't quite understand, he still followed Gu Xingzhi's order.Added two accompanying doctors, and even added an extra team of guards.

Not only that, but he also asked the hidden guards to send someone over so that no one could sneak in.

Under his tight arrangement, during the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, others knew that Gu Xingzhi was coming from a long distance away.There is no way, this time Gu Sheng is in the name of saving money, the other two princes are traveling lightly, and even rode all the way here, just to implement this policy.

But Gu Xingzhi lay in the carriage all the way, and during the period, doctors came in and out, bringing in some soup and medicine from time to time, looking very busy.All around the carriage were accompanying guards. Gu Xingzhi seemed to be in poor health. After arriving at the place, the guards helped him down.

"Sister, why is Gu Xingzhi so weak?"

When Xie Jingzhang arrived, he happened to see the scene where Gu Xingzhi was being helped off the carriage from left to right.On this sunny day, the sun was high, and even though it was in the mountains, it wasn't too cold.But Gu Xingzhi coughed non-stop and looked very weak.

He showed disgust, "This way, it won't last long, right?"

"Bah! Bah! Bah! Don't give me a crow's mouth!" Xie Lingyun stepped on her brother's foot, and said dissatisfiedly: "He was suffering from the wind and cold, and the old wounds from the past were involved. There is no such thing as you said. Serious?"

But after finishing speaking, Xie Lingyun couldn't help but look at Gu Xingzhi's back, full of worry in her heart.

"Sister, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival family feast, don't run to Gu Xingzhi behind our backs." Xie Jingzhang was worried, always feeling that his younger sister would definitely take the opportunity to make trouble. "Now the family has no objection. If you want to see him, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, but there is no rush at this moment."

Moved by Xie Lingyun's persistence, after discussing with Shen Qing, Xie Pi and his son decided to follow Xie Lingyun's mind.

Since Gu Xingzhi is the third prince, no matter whether he wants to or not, he will be involved in the storm of seizing the heir apparent in the future.Before the Queen Mother summoned him, she vaguely leaked rumors that the emperor was very displeased with the prince's clique for personal gain, and that he had already thought of abolishing the prince!
The second prince has a cruel personality, if he was in power, he would definitely not give preferential treatment to Prince Huai's residence in consideration of the old relationship of the former emperor.Besides, he has formed a lot of grudges with Duke Huai's Mansion for so many years, and he is afraid that he will "repay" them one by one.

Therefore, if the emperor is really determined to abolish the prince, then they must not allow Gu Xian to ascend the throne as emperor!
According to the previous plan, no matter which prince ascends the throne, Duke Huai's residence will rebel.Anyway, these three princes have no friendship with them.Moreover, when the new emperor ascends the throne, there will be a new situation.

Xie Pi didn't want his sons and daughters to be dealt with by the new emperor in the future, so he wanted to hold the power in his own hands and protect his family well.

After all, even if Xie Jingzhang and Xie Lingyun had never caused any trouble, their Duke Huai's residence was still in the most dangerous situation.Don't look at how much the Holy Majesty treats them preferentially, but behind that smile and grace, there is no good intention.

Wasn't Old Huai Wang feared at the beginning because of his high achievements?
Xie Pi has been in the army these years, but he has heard a lot about Old Huai Wang.Many old ministries believed that the death of Old Huai Wang was not simple.He is such a brave and fearless person, he can break into the enemy's barracks alone, and he can also take the head of the enemy's general. His martial arts skills are unprecedented.

Such a person would die under the plot of the enemy army?
Is it reasonable?
However, the late Emperor buried the old King Huai in a magnificent manner, and even adopted his own son to the old King Huai, so that no one would die after his death, thus blocking Youyou's mouth.It's not good for these old ministries to come out to question at that time, so they can only disappear and investigate secretly.

The first emperor was like this, and so was his son.

Although Gu Sheng was lenient towards Prince Huai's mansion, he let Xie Pi often stay in Beijing for banquets. If it wasn't for the tense war in the Northwest and the unscrupulous generals in the court, he probably wouldn't let Xie Pi lead the troops out to fight anyway.

But even if he let go, he was not at ease.Send the servants around you to oversee the army.To put it more bluntly, he was worried that someone would be disrespectful to Duke Huai, disobey the arrangement, and delay the battle.To put it bluntly, thank you is not trustworthy, you have to find someone to watch.

In that battle, Xie Pi won very well, and his prestige even frightened the entire Northwest, preventing the enemy from attacking.But because of this, Gu Sheng was even more afraid, and he found an excuse to take over his military power as soon as he returned to Beijing. After so many years, he dared not let him lead the army again.

Gu Sheng was so wary of Duke Huai's residence, Xie Pi didn't expect his three sons to have much success.That's why I have to rebel wholeheartedly, not only for myself, but also for those veterans and old troops who followed me.

However, all of this was disrupted by Xie Lingyun!
