Riding the Pheonix Chapter 407: True or false
The succession to the throne is no joke.
Confusion is absolutely not allowed in the royal bloodline. Not only must the clan's family be present at the time of birth, but it must also be written in the jade certificate to qualify.
Even if Yang Shu is really the emperor's illegitimate son and even the emperor himself recognizes him, that won't work.
As long as his name is not on the jade certificate, he is not a member of the clan.
It is extremely difficult to record an illegitimate child in the jade certificate.
What's more, he is not an illegitimate son, but a descendant of the former prince, and the emperor will never recognize his identity.
In other words, it is simply untenable for Yang Shu to want that position.
He has no legitimacy and no right to inheritance.
There is only one way to seize the throne, and that is to rebel.
But will the Zong family rebel against him? of course not.
Three generations of them guarded the border, and almost none of the sons in the family died in the battle.
Why would such a family follow the nameless Yang Shu and do such a treasonous thing?
If you really do it, the reputation stained by the blood of generations will be completely destroyed.
Zong Rui really can’t figure out why his father would say such things.
This is a question that requires no choice at all, and Yang Shu doesn't even need to mention it. How could he have the confidence to ask the Zong family to vote for him?
Zong Xu sighed.
He, the eldest son, is a fierce general who goes into battle to kill the enemy with extraordinary bravery.
However, in the political situation, there is a lack of acumen.
How can a person be perfect? Zong Xu was very satisfied with his eldest son. After all, the Zong family relied on their fighting skills, and he could teach him other things.
"This is indeed a good way to solve all future troubles." Zong Xu said calmly, "But if we do this, how can we face the ancestral precepts? Loyalty to the emperor and the country, protection of the family and the people, this is what our ancestors said . Now, knowing that he is the descendant of the former crown prince, and there is no fault in it, for the sake of his own family's prosperity, he is shot to death. How will he see his ancestors in the future? And how will he see the Emperor Taizu in the future? Killing the blood of Taizu for personal gain, Not loyal to the emperor. Punished for no fault, let alone protecting the people. As long as we do this, the faith of the clan will be destroyed."
Zong Rui said: "My child didn't want to kill him, it's just..."
"But if we don't kill him, what else can we do? Should we report such an important matter to the Holy One? If we report it, what's the difference from killing him? If we don't report it, wouldn't we become an accomplice with him? Holding the same secret , or if he tells the secret that if he goes out, he will confiscate his family and exterminate his family. If we are controlled by him in the future, wouldn’t it be equivalent to surrendering to him?"
Zong Rui said flatly: "Dad, why do you think so much? The child has never thought of killing him, but if he wants to threaten us, it is impossible. If you don't do anything to him, you are loyal to your own beliefs. As for him What he wants to do is his business. If he wants to threaten us with this matter, he will just have to hide it. This incident also made the child understand. Trying to hide a mistake will only make us do worse and worse. Wrong. At worst, we will go to the Holy One to plead guilty! If we are not guilty, there must be someone willing to reason for us!"
He said these words so confidently that Zong Xu was stunned.
From a political perspective, it was full of naivety, but the truth behind it made him appreciate it again and again.
Isn’t it because of this kind of uprightness and naivety that the Zong family has been able to survive for three generations? In order to reassure the emperor, they could slander themselves, but other than that, what political means did they use? If they only concentrate on trying to figure out the Holy Will, will they still be able to fight well?
Zong Xu was still thinking, but Yang Shu had already clapped his hands and praised him: "Young Master Zong's words make me look at him differently. General Zong, I can't say that I don't have any thoughts, but you really think too much. I don’t have such a big appetite, and I can’t swallow the Northwest Army.”
Zong Xu frowned: "What does the third young master mean by revealing this matter?"
Yang Shu said with a smile: "I just want General Zong to understand the current situation. If you don't kill me, we must share a secret. As for the future, I am just trying to survive. How can I have a chance to gain access to the Zong family?"
"You won't threaten us?"
Yang Shu smiled and said: "What are you doing, Weiwei? Are you asking you to help me rebel? In that case, I will be a traitor."
"You don't want to..."
"I really don't know what you people are thinking." Yang Shu interrupted him, "Even if my identity is made public to the world, it will not pose any threat to the throne. After all, even my father is dead. Well, in terms of orthodoxy, how can it compare with today? If nothing is possible, why do you think so much?"
"Then before you..."
"The surnamed Lin thinks that since the descendants of King Qin and King Jin want to rebel, I want to rebel? It's too natural. Haven't you seen them all buried one by one? I am living so happily, why bother to look for this? Not comfortable?"
"This..."
Yang Shu said sincerely: "You don't even look at my situation. I offended Liang Zhang completely before, and there was such a commotion over the grassland. It's good that Lord Hu didn't send anyone to assassinate us. Chaoli also There is no one there. The Yang family is not close to me, the Pei family is ignoring me, and Prime Minister Lu can’t even call me a friend. You think, I can’t get anywhere, why should I rebel? After all, my two cousins are still there. A banned account, who am I?”
After listening to this, the Zong family father and son thought about it carefully, and it seems...it makes sense?
"What I said before was just the words of General Zongda. I put him to death and then live again. I am afraid that you have used your brains and want to use my head to exchange for that person's trust. Then I will suffer a big loss. . Let me stop you with words first, so that you can open up and help me hide it together. In this way, even if those people like Prince Liuyang want to do something, I will not be alone. How about it, General Zong, Isn’t my request too much?”
Zong Xu thought for a long time and nodded slowly: "Our Zong family must do things worthy of the emperor. Since the third young master has no such thoughts, we will not say anything about this matter."
Yang Shu smiled: "Then let's make an agreement. Let's pretend that what happened tonight never happened. If they are really spreading rumors outside, the general needs to help me."
"This is natural. Helping the Third Young Master means helping myself."
"It's what I said."
"A horse is hard to catch."
The two sides nodded to each other, Zong Xu raised his hand: "Third Young Master, please go to the tent to rest."
"Thank you."
The people brought their troops and horses back to the tent Zongxu had set up.
Yang Shu entered the camp~IndoMTL.com~ and waved away the others, leaving only Mingwei and Ning Xiu.
Mingwei sat down, took a sip of tea, and said, "You are really good at lying."
Yang Shu looked innocent: "Where did I lie? Aren't what I said all the truth?"
Mingwei glanced at him and rephrased Zong Xu's words: "Since we want to maintain the same secret and both parties are on the same team, what's the difference between surrendering to you?"
Yang Shu laughed: "I told you I wouldn't rebel..."
"The goal is too ambitious. If you tell the truth, no one may believe it, but if you tell lies, everyone thinks they are reasonable." Mingwei shook his head and sighed, "Human..."
