Extreme alert

Chapter 1416 The Problem of the Heir
The hall was silent.

Everyone looked at Wanyan Zonghan with surprise, even Wanyan Zongpan was a little surprised and did not dare to reprimand him.

Wanyan Zonghan is challenging Jindi?

But for them, this kind of scene is not uncommon. In fact, the Jurchens have always paid attention to teamwork, and only when they handle things convincingly can they convince all the Jurchens.

It is not uncommon to question the patriarch, and confrontation with the emperor also happens from time to time.

Wanyan Sheng was still indifferent, staring at Wanyan Zonghan for a moment, and then said: "When the second brother conquered the world, he wanted you, Wanyan Zonghan, to inherit the throne."

Wanyan Zonghan said directly: "Not bad."

Yang Yao was a little surprised, but he didn't know about this kind of thing.

When he got here, he really didn't know how to deal with it for a while, because he looked like a spectator, watching the collision of two huge ships helplessly, and he was helpless.

The only question he had to think about was—Which ship would sink?
Can't help looking at Shen Yue, Yang Yao really hoped that Shen Yue could give him a prediction, but at this moment, Shen Yue closed his eyes.

Wanyan Sheng continued slowly: "Back then, you, Wanyan Zonghan, overcame all opinions and supported your second brother to proclaim the emperor with all your strength. Your support has never been forgotten by your second brother, so you are highly valued by your second brother."

The second elder brother he was talking about was naturally Taizu Aguda.

Aguda is ranked second, and Wanyan Sheng is Aguda's fourth younger brother.

"The Liao people bullied me and waited too long, making the Jurchens dare not speak out, but you, Wan Yan Zonghan, have always been brave and resourceful. You even suggested that the second brother go to war with Liao, and even persuaded the second brother to proclaim the emperor to strengthen the heart of the Jurchens."

Wanyan Cheng sighed lightly, "Wanyan Zonghan, I, Wanyan Cheng, admired your courage back then."

He suddenly changed his name again, just like talking about family affairs between brothers.

Wanyan Zonghan slightly expressed his nostalgia, "Wanyan Zonghan is lucky in this life to be admired by the emperor."

Wanyan Sheng continued: "Daliao was destroyed, and it was you Wanyan Zonghan who made extraordinary achievements. Many times, afterwards, I feel that it is nothing special, but I know that the first person who mustered up the courage to resist the power must definitely With extraordinary guts."

Yang Yao agrees with this statement very much.

It is not easy to stand up after kneeling for a long time.

Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's rebellion may seem unremarkable in later generations, but for the parties involved, it required great courage.

Wanyan Zonghan didn't answer, he felt that Wanyan Sheng seemed to have meant something.

"The Jurchens never dared to think that they could really overthrow the Liao people who were riding on top of us, just like thousands of kneeling slaves. They never thought that they could also be masters, and be their own masters."

Wanyan Sheng looked around the crowd, and his eyes finally fell on Wanyan Zonghan, "But you Wanyan Zonghan not only dared to say, but also dared to do it. When you fought against the Liao Kingdom, you always fought first. Because of this, the Jurchens obeyed you. Brother very much hopes that you can inherit the throne, because in his opinion, you can make the Jurchen as brave as a tiger and not be bullied by the world."

Wanyan Zonghan slowly clenched his fist.

Wanyan Sheng continued: "But I, Wanyan Sheng, will inherit the throne after all."

Wanyan Zonghan smiled.

Wan Yancheng said slowly: "But you are not dissatisfied because of this, on the contrary, after Taizu passed away, you are still loyal to Jurchen conscientiously."

He said allegiance to the Jurchen, not the emperor.

Shen Yue listened all the time and understood what Wanyan Sheng was talking about—Wanyan Zonghan's loyalty is the Jurchen's long-standing rule.

"After the death of my second brother, instead of preventing me from ordering the Jurchen, you once again suggested that I attack Song Dynasty with all my strength."

Wan Yansheng recalled: "Too many Jurchens felt that this was not an option, but you were still the ones who overcame all opinions, which allowed Dajin Kingdom to replace the people of Song Dynasty and become the lord of the Central Plains."

Shen Yue knew that what Wanyan Sheng said was not an exaggeration. In fact, when the Jin people were at their strongest, they drove Zhao Gou into the sea to take refuge. Now the Jin people and the Song people divide their spheres of influence by the Huai River and the Yangtze River. The Song people It was almost suppressed in the southern Xinjiang that he used to call it, but the Central Plains was actually controlled by the Jin people.

"Destroying the Liao Dynasty and destroying the Song Dynasty, you, Yan Zonghan, have made great contributions."

Wanyan Sheng didn't shy away from saying: "In addition to the matter of admonishing Taizu to proclaim himself emperor, it can be said that the current prosperity of Dajin is due to your contribution to Wanyan Zonghan."

Wanyan Zonghan did not respond.

He was able to achieve such an achievement, naturally not by recklessness, but by courage and strategy.

At such a tense moment, Wanyan Sheng praised his achievements, what is his intention?
"That's why when Zong Pan wanted to become a master, you still strongly opposed it, and I didn't agree with it."

Wanyan Sheng said slowly: "I know you are not convinced!"

Wanyan Zonghan didn't answer, but his attitude showed everything.

Wan Yancheng sighed lightly: "You should also be dissatisfied. I think the Jurchens have always respected the strong, and they can use the strong, and even take the strong as their leaders. This can make the Jurchens strong today, and avoid the Liao and Song people The end of decay."

Feeling very emotional, Wanyan Cheng murmured: "Using one sheep will definitely not bring out an excellent pack of wolves. This is a simple truth, but the world still doesn't understand it. It's also a joke."

Shen Yue understands one thing - in the rules of the Jurchen, the heir to the throne is Pan Bojilie, not the Eastern Palace Prince of the Central Plains.

Therefore... Wanyan Zongpan is the prince, but he is not extremely knowledgeable.And the mastery of class is extremely strong...

Shen Yue thought of this, and looked at Wan Yanquan who still looked like a child.

Looking at the panicked Wanyan Zongpan standing at the gate of the palace, Wanyan Cheng said slowly: "Although Zongpan is a prince, in terms of achievements, not only is he far inferior to you Wanyan Zonghan, he is also too far away from Zonggan and Zongbi. .”

Wanyan Zongpan couldn't help saying: "Father..."

He still wanted to distinguish a few words for himself, but he could see the rare coldness in his father's eyes and the heart palpitations for no reason, so he couldn't speak any more.

Wanyan Sheng said slightly sadly: "If the earthen jar is not separated from the mouth of the well, the general will inevitably die before the battle. Over the years, the second elder brother has gone, the third elder brother died of illness, and the fifth younger brother will not be spared either."

Wanyan Zonghan naturally knew that the third brother and fifth younger brother mentioned by Emperor Jin were Wanyan Wodai and Wanyan Gao, and Wanyan Gao was once a candidate for the emperor of the Kingdom of Jin.

But even though Wanyan Gao was younger than Wanyan Sheng, he passed away first.

"Their illnesses are a record of their great contributions to the Jurchens."

Wanyan Cheng murmured: "If the fifth brother is still there, there will be no future disputes, because if the fifth brother inherits the throne, you Wanyan Zonghan still thinks it is feasible."

Wanyan Zonghan remained silent.

Wanyan Sheng continued: "You, Wanyan Zonghan, may feel that Xie is not as good as you, but Xie is also an outstanding individual after all."

Wanyan Zonghan finally nodded, "That's right, Xie is the best among men." He knew that Wanyan Sheng was referring to Xie as Wanyan Gao.

According to the succession order of the Jurchens, brothers do not succeed younger brothers, as long as the same mother and brother of the same generation as Wanyan Aguda have the priority to inherit the throne.

After Wanyan Aguda, there are three more brothers - the third Wanyan Wodai, the fourth Wanyan Sheng, and the fifth Wanyan Xieye.

Wanyan Zonghan has nothing to say when any of these people becomes emperor.

But after these few brothers, Wanyan Zonghan originally had the highest prestige among the Jurchens, and he didn't even let Wanyan Sheng!
That being the case, if Wanyan Zonghan is called the second among the characters of Zongzi generation, who would dare to say that he is the first?
