What I want him to do is persuade his father, the Emperor, to help me with that horse that is on the verge of death. It cannot die again, especially not in opposition to the Jade Void Sect. No matter how much he dotes on it, he probably wouldn’t make such a foolish decision.
Yang Yan pouted, realizing her position. I don't deny it; she certainly didn’t think her words could determine the decisions of a cultivation family or even influence the court's decisions. I don't deny it; she could decide something significant.
No, she felt that her father, Coco, needed such an opportunity—a chance for Great Jin and also for the Yang Family.
Gu Ping looked at Yang Yan, clearly aware that she did not realize the implications of what he had mentioned earlier about ancient words. She knew Buqi well, so there was some emotional nuance that Gu Ping needed to confirm with Yi Dong. Although she had some ideas in mind, the most crucial part was that Gu Ping hadn’t figured out Minghong yet. Only by understanding Minghong could they ascertain how much Great Jin’s Yang Family truly needed this opportunity.
How to say it?
Before, he had shared some knowledge with him and hinted at things that should be easily verifiable by anyone with intent. I need to verify with Yi Dong.
Hmm, Yang Yan nodded.
My father ascended to the throne twenty years ago; he is indeed the Legitimate Eldest Son.
The Legitimate Eldest Son's ascension was based on a system upheld by all nations at that time. The main goal was to maintain stability in a country’s succession system to prevent external chaos that could lead to the dynasty's decline.
Father Coco is more outstanding than other princes!
Yang Yan understood that Gu Ping was not wrong; what she said about Bu Luo was merely superficial self-deception. Historically, when an old emperor passed away and a new one ascended, it was always accompanied by bloodshed and turmoil. How could it be as calm as it seemed?
Wasn't Ming Jin Wang’s Yang Yin the eldest prince? Gu Ping said that back then, almost everyone believed my grandfather would pass the throne to my uncle, who had previously been on the throne instead of my father.
Grandpa is just more indulgent towards my father.
My father is also quite indulgent with me.
But he has no daughters.
Suddenly, Liu Lao Jiu stretched out his leg and pointed at Yang Yan. As a former member of the Liu Xia Dynasty's royal family, he understood the implications of her words. When Yang Yan mentioned that she had no daughters, Liu Lao Jiu realized something.
No, I have no daughters, which is why my father can confidently entrust the Abyssal Guards to me. Those ministers won't come to trouble me. I have no daughters, so no one thinks I will inherit the throne in the future because of that identity.
But twenty years ago, the Jin Dynasty had a son, Yang Yan retorted.
No, no, no, Liu Lao Jiu shook his head and explained. It's not about whether I am a son or a daughter; it's about my identity. My identity as a woman means I cannot become the emperor of the Great Jin and cannot sit on that throne. Twenty years ago, the Jin Dynasty had only one Legitimate Eldest Son—the Crown Prince—who was destined to inherit the throne. That was what led my grandfather to pass the throne to my father.
Yang Yan remained silent; she thought she had enough understanding of that country over the years and felt there was nothing new to discover. That's why she disguised herself as a man, traveled abroad, and met Gu Ping. In her view, she knew it all—just superficial aspects of that empire—nothing that those in power wanted her to see.
I wonder if there’s someone behind the Jin Dynasty pulling strings?
Gu Ping tapped his leg against the table without looking up but widened his eyes. In that moment, a glimmer of insight flashed through him; he felt he had grasped something crucial.
Liu Lao Jiu and Yang Yan were both surprised by Gu Ping's speculation and turned to look at him. They found it hard to believe, yet the more they thought about it, the more they felt Gu Ping's theory made sense.
Gu Ping nodded and said: If twenty years ago there were people from Feiyuxuzong in the Jin Dynasty who sought to extend their influence into the Great Jin Dynasty, would my grandfather have foreseen this? Just as the ancient saying goes, everyone believed that only the Jin Dynasty should have an emperor, while my father was precisely what protected him.
Thus, the Jin Dynasty does not have a Keke heir to the throne, so the successor must be from the Yang Family.
Yang Yan mentioned that her father, Coco, is currently in need of an opportunity like that, but what did that statement really mean?
If we consider the struggle for the throne twenty years ago between Feiyuxuzong and the Great Jin Yang Family, it was clear that the Yang Family initially emerged victorious. However, the price was the ancient words of retreat, with Yang Yin being conferred as a member of the Jin Dynasty. For twenty years, a Ceasefire Agreement has been in place, during which both sides have endured. Now it seems time for another contest.
But why do many members of the Yang Family worship at the Jade Void Sect and are disciples of Feiyuxuzong? Why seek to resist the Jade Void Sect?
The Jade Void Sect is not solely comprised of the Yang Family; after all, the Great Jin Yang Family shares only one surname.
A simple question-and-answer format laid bare the issue at hand: because there are many people in the Jade Void Sect and because the Yang Family is part of Feiyuxuzong, I don't deny that there could be external disputes regarding the Jade Void Sect.
But that is merely my speculation.
Yang Yan shook her head and told Gu Ping and Liu Lao Jiu that their conclusions were based on pieced-together information and mere imagination. True matters require evidence; without real proof, those thoughts remain mere conjecture.
