Interstellar boss, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 1621: Luck (Second Update)

Xia Chujian's heart softened. She hugged the two sweet and soft children, kissed them hard, and said, "I'll take you back to the Exotic Beast Forest to hunt in a few days, okay?"

Wufu and Xiao Jiuxiang cheered together: "Great!"

"Let's go hunting in the Forest of Exotic Beasts!"

"Let's go hunting in the Forest of Exotic Beasts!"

The little ones rushed out again to share the good news with their friends.

……

Not long ago, Quan Yuxun returned to his family's estate and immediately invited his grandfather, Old Man Quan, who is also the Grand Duke of the Quan family, to a video call.

He had a lot to ask his grandfather.

Mr. Quan’s avatar soon appeared on the virtual display screen in front of Quan Yuxun.

Quan Yuxun said, "Grandfather, it's so late. I'm sorry to bother you. Are you asleep or not?"

At this time, it was also night on Zangge Star.

Mr. Quan is old, so he doesn’t sleep that much.

Most of the time, I just sit alone in silence, breathing and resting.

Seeing the video call invitation from his precious grandson, he immediately clicked it and said with a smile: "Ah Xun, what's wrong? What's the hurry?"

Quan Yuxun didn't say anything more and immediately gave a brief introduction to the video he saw today at the construction site of the Exotic Beast Forest Manor, and then played the video for Grandpa Quan on his virtual display screen.

Mr. Quan was also shocked.

He didn't say anything for a long time even after the video was over.

Quan Yuxun was no longer in a hurry at this time and waited patiently for Old Man Quan to come back to life.

Ten minutes later, Mr. Quan sighed and said, "...I finally understand what is going on with some of the Quan family's ancestral precepts."

Quan Yuxun's heart skipped a beat and he said, "So our Quan family isn't considered an outsider?"

Mr. Quan rolled his eyes at him and said, "When did we, the Quan family, become outsiders?"

"Have you ever thought about why the deed to the Exotic Beast Forest also requires the password passed down by the Quan family to open it?"

Quan Yuxun nodded: "I have thought about it, and even thought about why the Tan Tai Imperial Family, or the founding emperor Tan Tai Lin, was willing to sign such a basic law."

Mr. Quan smiled and said, "Oh? Do you know the answer now?"

Quan Yuxun said, "I have only a small guess, but I still need grandfather's confirmation."

Mr. Quan said, "Hmm," and said, "You go ahead."

Quan Yuxun said: "I can only think that this has something to do with how Tan Tailin ascended the throne... and seized the throne."

"Since the country was acquired unjustly, it is natural that huge interests must be given up in order to stabilize the situation as soon as possible."

"So, I infer that this is a compromise between him and the three nobles."

Mr. Quan nodded: "About the same..."

"Because apart from the Exotic Beast Forest, he has also given up on other property rights. I believe you are very clear about this."

Quan Yuxun said: "This is all learned. People who study law in the Beichen Empire basically know it."

"However, the history books do not say that this concession was due to an unjust acquisition of the country. Instead, they all praise Tan Tai Lin for being broad-minded and not forgetting the contributions of the founding heroes."

"No one cooks his running dog after the cunning rabbit dies. No one hides his good bow after the birds are all gone."

Mr. Quan laughed and said meaningfully: "You have to know that every founding emperor wants to achieve these two points."

“Unless they can’t.”

"Dan Tailin just couldn't do it given the situation at the time."

"Before, I also wondered, why can't he do it?"

"Generally speaking, it's because the military doesn't have enough power."

"Then the reasonable inference is that the three nobles hold a large number of troops."

"But, I know the history of our Quan family. Even before the establishment of the Beichen Empire, our Quan family never had a large number of troops."

"From the beginning to the end, the Zong family has been inheriting military technology, not really owning its own army."

"And the Su family, that has always been the inheritance of the high priest."

"So, if our three noble families did not have their own army, then why didn't Tan Tai Lin dare to take us down, and instead signed so many concession bills?"

"now I understand."

"Because, Tan Tai Lin, actually didn't have the military power at that time."

"The real founding queen, Qisha, is the one who controls the military power."

"It's a pity that she was murdered by Tan Tailin's conspiracy. No matter how many troops we have, we can't save the situation."

"It was probably after killing Qisha that Tan Tailin realized that without military power, he would not be able to maintain his throne..."

"So, in order to gather Qisha's troops, he gave up a lot of benefits."

Quan Yuxun thought thoughtfully: "Should he sign a bill with the three nobles first and give benefits to the nobles?"

"And then use the nobles as a bridge and bond to erode military power?"

"After all, although the army was not directly controlled by the nobles at that time, most of the middle and upper-level officers in the army were nobles?"

Grandpa Quan clapped his hands in appreciation: "As expected of you, you are my Quan family's Qilin son!"

"Hearing the music, one can understand the elegant meaning; understanding the great principles, one can understand the world."

"Not bad!"

“That’s really what happened at the time.”

"At that time, the military high command was actually divided into three parts." "Our Quan family, Zong family, and Qi family."

"Qisha promoted high-ranking civilian officers."

"Unlike our Quan and Zong clans, who all support the senior officers in our clan."

Quan Yuxun said: "How do you know the origins of the high-ranking officers in the army ten thousand years ago?"

Grandpa Quan said: "This is of course a batch of top-secret archival materials passed down by our Quan ancestors."

"Only pass it on to the next Grand Duke, including the password."

"You are not the Grand Duke yet, so naturally you don't know."

"But I have chosen you to be my successor, and you have already known this information through other channels, so I don't need to hide it from you."

Quan Yuxun couldn't help but ask, "Then did our Quan family know that Tan Tai Lin's access to the throne was not righteous?"

Mr. Quan sighed and said, "That's not the case."

"I'm afraid only our ancestor, the first Grand Duke of Quan, knows all this clearly."

"But he did not pass down these specific historical facts, only leaving these clues for future generations to refer to."

"Perhaps, the ancestor doesn't know whether his descendants can keep this secret, so it's better not to say anything."

"After all, knowing too much is not a good thing for people without military power."

"We, the Quan family, have been able to survive for thousands of years thanks to our ancestors' foresight."

"Otherwise, after so many generations of inheritance, if only one Grand Duke gets carried away, our Quan family may suffer a devastating disaster."

Quan Yuxun concluded: "Our ancestors passed down part of what happened back then, but not all of it."

"So we, the descendants, have no idea what happened in the past."

Grandpa Quan said: "Our ancestors originally wanted to use these clues to let us, the descendants, know the situation."

"As a result, our ancestors did not expect that Tan Tai Lin would live to be almost a thousand years old. He had plenty of time to change the history books after all the people who knew about the incident died."

"As long as the history books are changed, we can rest assured."

Quan Yuxun said: "...Unfortunately, he still failed to completely kill all the descendants of Qi while he was still alive."

Mr. Quan was silent for a while, then said, "This is Qisha's destiny."

"As the founding queen, she died before she could truly enjoy this fortune. It is understandable that part of her fortune fell on her descendants."

Quan Yuxun nodded: "Then grandfather, is there anything we need to do?"

Mr. Quan asked back: "What do we need to do?"

Quan Yuxun narrowed his eyes: "How do you think the Tantai royal family will react?"

"Will everyone who was present and saw the video be killed to silence them?"

Mr. Quan said disdainfully: "If that empress did this, she should step down."

Quan Yuxun's heart moved, and he said, "...what do you mean?"

Mr. Quan said calmly: "Although I don't know who the last assassin was, if I can do it once, I can do it a second time."

The old members of the Polaris Organization all knew how the previous emperor, Tan Tai Hongyuan, died.

However, they did not know who the assassin Tan Lang was.

All I know is that it was someone Huo Yushen brought here.

The only ones who know Tan Lang’s true identity are Huo Yushen, Quan Yuxun and Su Buyan.

Quan Yuxun was silent for a while, then said, "It's a pity that Huo Shuai has lost his memory."

Mr. Quan fell into silence.

Quan Yuxun added, "I finally understand why the North Star organization was previously called 'Seven Killers'."

"Don't you think it sounds the same as 'Qisha'?"

"Is this just a coincidence?"

……

After Quan Yuxun finished the video call with Grandpa Quan, Grandpa Quan sent a group video call invitation to the Grand Dukes of the Zong and Su families at the same time.

He used the Grand Duke's encryption authority to ensure that even the mechanical intelligence that controls the star network doesn't know what his chat group is talking about.

The Grand Duke of the Zong family and the Grand Duke and High Priest of the Su family appeared together in Mr. Quan’s encrypted video chat group.

Mr. Quan didn't waste any time and directly played the video of Qi Buqu for them.

After watching the video, Elder Zong and High Priest Su fell silent.

They were mentally prepared to a certain extent, knowing that there must be something fishy going on between Tan Tai Lin and Qi Sha, an unknown historical figure.

But I didn’t expect that the trick was so big!

This is not just a trick, this is a blatant distortion of historical facts!

Without waiting for the two to speak, Grandpa Quan asked Su Yanxing, "High Priest, is there no news about this in your Su family's heritage?"

He felt that it was understandable that their Quan family's ancestors did not mention a word about this matter.

Because their strength at that time was not enough to compete with Tan Tai Lin.

But Su is different.

Moreover, Su's ancestors were more powerful in history.

It is said that before the Beichen Empire, in the tribe of Tan Tailin, the high priest could decide the affiliation and inheritance of the tribal leader with just one word.

There will be a new update at 05:00 in the evening!
