Wearing the white moonlight of a rival

Gu Heng entered Gu Wan's room, comforted him with kind words, and went straight to the study when he came out.

Judging by the time, the morning court should have gone, and my father and two elder brothers should have returned.He rushed straight away, never wanting to be stopped by Gu Changye.

The middle-aged man remained expressionless, and only said: "Young Master Heng, proceed with caution."

How many times, how many times he has entered his father's study room, he has never been stopped.

Only this time, Gu Heng clearly felt that he was no longer what he used to be, not because of the inconsistencies in his appearance, but also with the loss of that sense of familiarity.

He shook his head, then cupped his hands and said, "Uncle Changye, have Master Hou and the two brothers ever returned?"

Gu Changye said: "No."

Gu Heng wondered, "Why? It should be the time to disperse at this time, could it be that they were detained in the palace?"

Gu Changye paused, "The subordinates have gone down to inquire about it, and today the court is arguing with each other, because of the edict promulgated by His Majesty yesterday."

Gu Heng was pissed off by what happened to the Zhen family, he suddenly remembered this incident, and suddenly sneered, "That's Wei Minghuan's own crimes, all the families in the capital are definitely not ordinary courtiers, if he has no strength, I'm afraid he will be eaten alive .Those civil servants are very talkative, and even I never won an argument back then."

Gu Changye was sensitive by nature, and quickly caught the unusualness in Gu Heng's words, "When did Mr. Heng have a verbal battle with all the adults in the court?"

Gu Heng smiled awkwardly, and then brought up Gu Wan's matter, "Uncle Chang Ye, you must know about Sister Wan's matter, the Zhen family is too deceitful, I must seek justice for Chang Sister, if you don't Bring a few good hands and go to Zhen's house with me?"

Gu Changye said: "Master Heng ordered, of course he should. But, how do you plan to deal with it?"

"What else do you want to do?" Gu Heng sneered, "Then what is the Zhen family? What kind of person is my Gu family? He committed divorce without reason, so why should I, a brother-in-law, be reasonable? Of course It is to beat the door, and use violence to control violence! Besides, even if I ransacked his house, I can clean it up! If you want me to waste some energy, Chang Tinghou I am afraid that the word Gu of the government will be written backwards."

When Gu Changye heard this, his eyes darkened, "Master Heng, my subordinates think that today is not six years ago."

"You..." Gu Heng is so clever, he immediately thought of the unfinished words in Gu Changye's mouth.

This person is the personal follower of Changting Marquis Gu Yan. He has been with the Gu family since he was a child. He has witnessed the changes of the Gu family for decades. He is honest and trustworthy.

If he hadn't been loyal and courageous, he would not have torn apart some embarrassing and cruel truths in front of Gu Heng, the son of the Gu family, and laid them naked in front of Gu Heng.

Gu Heng has already tasted a lot from that short sentence. The hardships of Gu Jiaerlang in the past six years, and the attitude of looking forward and backward as if walking on thin ice, seemed to be presented one by one before his eyes.

Grief, embarrassment, guilt, self-blame, and remorse filled his heart until he couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

When he arrived, he could only shout three words, "Impossible!"

He knew very well that the Gu family, as the losers who seized the throne, could only behave with their tails between their legs after the new emperor ascended the throne. It must be a difficult day.

But... But how could it be possible that even a dry Amber Zhen's family would not dare to provoke him?

At that moment, he almost blurted out, "Changting County, the territory of my Changting Marquis Mansion, has millions of subordinates. The land is fertile, the products are rich, there are countless generals and soldiers, and there are many talented people. Who can compare with the aristocratic families in the capital city? I take care of the family? Even today, I should be afraid of it, so what is the Zhen family? Do you want me to be a dignified marquis mansion, tolerating him as a little earl who came out of nowhere? What kind of thing is this? reason?"

"His surname Zhen has bullied me, the Gu family, and stood on top of our shit and pissed! If you still want to swallow your anger, then I, the Gu family, are simply a big joke! I, Gu Heng, don't have to be human anymore!"

This is the real Gu Heng. He is the proud son of heaven, and he is arrogant in his bones. If he hadn't embarked on the road of seizing the heir, he would not have restrained himself.

In the first two or thirty years, Gu Yan, Marquis of Changting, was the most important general in the imperial court. The daughters of the Gu family became concubines one after another, and even gave birth to a prince. Naturally, the Gu family was extremely powerful and powerful.And Gu Heng, as the youngest son of Gu Yan, is still the youngest son of the first line, so he naturally enjoys the inherent glory, and has never suffered any hardships, let alone suffered any grievances.

How many people feared him, praised him, and fawned on him, even among the royal family, except for those who had grown up, no one else could enter the Imperial College to study like him, and worship under the great Confucianism of the time.

In his heart, the Gu family is his greatest reliance, and the Gu family name is sacred and inviolable.But now, if you want to make a choice for the Amber Zhen family, you have to think twice and find a proper way. Isn't this a joke?

Gu Heng was the first to not accept it.

"Let's wait for Lord Hou to return to the mansion before making a decision." Gu Changye was completely unmoved, with no expression on his face.

Gu Heng took a breath and was about to explode when his father's voice came from behind, "Ah Heng, what's the matter?"

Gu Yan came back with a look of tiredness on his face.

Gu Heng turned his head and saluted, and told all about what the Zhen family had done, not only slandering himself for making Madam You angry, but also the shameless behavior towards Gu Wan.

After hearing this, Changting Hou Gu Yan pondered for a moment, looked at the third son who was filled with righteous indignation, and finally sighed, "Let's talk in the study."

Even the two elder brothers, Gu Yu and Gu Zhuo, didn't say a word, as if they couldn't empathize with Gu Heng at all.

Gu Heng was stunned for a moment, the Gu family was his heaven and earth, even greater than the so-called king of a country, His Majesty the Son of Heaven.

What is the meaning of father and brother's attitude?

After entering the study, Gu Changye stood guard at the door as usual, Gu Yan asked Gu Heng: "Ah Heng, what are you going to do about your elder sister Wan's matter?"

Gu Heng then expressed his thoughts, "The Zhen family is too deceitful, so I will naturally retaliate!"

Gu Yan asked again: "You didn't even have the slightest cover? Just rushed to the mansion so grandiosely?"

Gu Heng said: "So what?"

Gu Yan didn't answer, just said: "I remember that you used to be the person who was best at making decisions before acting. How come you are more impulsive when you are older?"

As soon as Gu Heng heard these words, he understood what Gu Yan meant, and felt somewhat displeased.

"Father, make up your mind before moving, that's because those things are not related to the life and death of the Gu family, I just strive for what I haven't got yet, but now, it's my Gu family's face, the glory that the Gu family deserves, being trampled underfoot! Father, I always remember that you taught me when I was a child, you said that no matter how much Gu Jiaerlang suffered and how much ridicule he suffered outside, it was the ordeal that a man should go through, and he should not come back and cry because of it.

But if they are the daughters of the Gu family, no matter if they are direct descendants or collateral descendants, they are all the jewels in the palm of my Gu family, and the family members must be pampered.Everyone else knows that I, the daughter of the Gu family, cannot be bullied!It's only been six years now, and sister Wan suffered such injustice, so father just sit back and watch? "

"Third brother, why did you talk to your father?" Gu Yu reprimanded him.

Gu Heng glanced at Gu Yu, "Brother has always been upright, but now he has lost his strength?"

"Third brother, this is not something that can be explained clearly in just one or two sentences. You should think about it carefully." Gu Yu's tone softened.

However, Gu Heng was not reconciled, "If this matter is delayed, then my Gu family will admit defeat, and maybe people will think that my Gu family is ignorant. Sister Wan made some mistakes, so in the future let Wan How does my sister behave? I’m afraid you won’t even dare to leave the door! You have to get angry immediately, so that you can teach those outsiders who read jokes, everyone knows that my Gu family and my Changting Hou’s mansion are not to be bullied at any time You can't bully my son of the Gu family, let alone my daughter of the Gu family!"

"That's what I said..." Gu Yu hesitated to speak, but was caught by Gu Heng's eyes, and suddenly became speechless.

In his heart, he actually thought the same as Gu Heng, the daughter of the Gu family was more precious than the Erlang of the Gu family.If you really want to say something against your will, you really can't say it.

Seeing this, Gu Yan sighed, "Forget it, Ah Heng, let me tell you the truth. You have been back for two or three days, and many things are still unclear. Both your brothers and I don't want you to bother us any more. Simply didn’t mention it.”

Gu Heng asked: "What's the matter?"

Gu Yan paused, but didn't speak immediately, as if he was thinking about how to speak.

At this time, Gu Yu said: "Third brother, you should know the fate of the king and the loser. Prince Shun is still alive because of the ancestor's instruction, and the children of the royal family are not allowed to kill each other. And our Gu family is still based in the capital because of the past. You took poison in Dali Temple, took all the charges of treason, and gave the late emperor and the world an explanation. But in fact, this is far from enough."

"What's not enough?" Gu Heng asked, with a vague guess in his mind.

"That's all for the Tian family. It has to be famous for its name, but it is those aristocratic families that eat people's flesh and blood. They have their own rules for how to do evil. They look at the defeat of the Gu family one by one, and want to take advantage of it. If it weren't for your majesty As soon as you ascended the throne, you set up a monument to you in Changling against all opinions, and enshrined it in Daning Temple..."

"Where is it?" Gu Heng couldn't believe it, "Where did you say my monument was erected?"

"Changling." Gu Yu repeated, "You heard it right. It is Changling. Since ancient times, no official can be buried in the imperial tomb, let alone a guilty minister. You are the first person in history."

Gu Heng stared at his elder brother dumbfounded, and after a while, he cried out: "I'm not dead yet! I'm crazy, he is really crazy, Wei Minghuan is really crazy, as soon as he ascended the throne, his nature was exposed, and he turned into a mad dog... ..."

"Third brother!" Gu Zhuo's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick, and he immediately grabbed him, "What are you shouting about? It's all in the past. Now that he has become His Majesty, is it too much for you to call him by his first name? Besides, he It was for your own good, at that time he didn’t know that you were not dead, and neither did we, why did you call him a mad dog?”

"Second brother, don't talk about me. If this guard dog is not really crazy, why would he arrange for such a deadly enemy like me to be buried in Changling? What crimes are on me? No one in the world knows who doesn't know? What excuse does he have? Block everyone's mouths?"

"This..." Gu Zhuo wondered.

Gu Heng didn't care about these things, and kept saying: "No wonder he can even do the matter of choosing a male concubine now, I'm afraid he has become crazy! You let him do it like this, and you never even tried to dissuade you? Long The mausoleum is the ancestral tomb of his Wei family, and he will be buried there in the future. Could it be that he was not buried with his own queen, but lay down with my deadly enemy? A monument is erected, what is written on the monument?"

Gu Zhuo was a little dumbfounded by Gu Heng's words, and he replied dully: "The inscription is nothing but your name."

Hearing this, Gu Heng felt a little relieved, and thought to himself, fortunately, no messy epitaph was written!

"Aheng, Your Majesty has spent the night looking for me to discuss this matter with your two elder brothers. You don't know the situation at that time." Gu Yan said slowly, "He only said that he had been classmates with you for many years when he was young, and if he buried you in his I'm afraid you will be desecrated. After all, you are charged with the crime of being a traitor, and only the imperial mausoleum is heavily guarded. Unless the emperor orders, no one dares to enter or leave at will."

"Yes." Gu Yu echoed, "You offended a lot of stubborn old people back then..."

"I'm afraid it's not just that..." Gu Heng was so smart, he calmed down and quickly realized, "He also wanted to gain a good reputation as a wise monarch, so he settled me as a deadly enemy, so naturally it can also reassure some people , I feel that I will be treated kindly.”

"Father, eldest brother, second brother, I understand that this matter is of great benefit to the Gu family. The emperor's way of doing this is to preserve the glory of the Gu family, whether it is the monument erected in Changling or the memorial tablet enshrined in Daning Temple. If he, Wei Minghuan, did it, others would not dare to say anything. I..." Gu Heng sighed, "I'm fine, I just feel aggrieved."

Gu Zhuo stretched out his hand and patted Gu Heng's shoulder, "Third brother, you have been worrying too much since you were young, and you have a tough temper. You can't bear any grievances. Later, you acted prudently and cautiously with His Royal Highness. I thought you had changed your temper. Now It seems that you have been wronged."

"Since that's the case, naturally you can't be wronged about Sister Wan's matter, you should all listen to me!" Gu Heng made a final decision.

Gu Zhuo didn't speak, and glanced at Gu Yu, who was silent, and then looked at Changting Hou Gu Yan together.

Gu Yan didn't express his opinion, just asked: "Ah Heng, do you know why I went to court today after recuperating at home for many days?"

"Isn't it because of the draft edict issued by Wei Minghuan yesterday?" Gu Heng responded naturally.

But soon he realized that something was wrong. Officials had to inform the censor order two days in advance when returning to the court, especially those who were forced to rest at home like his father.

This is really weird!

Gu Heng immediately asked: "What else happened at home?"
