Chapter 790 Linglong
Take over the last level of the throne?
Yang Shu felt a little trembling for no reason, as if there was something dangerous in what his father said, which made him instinctively want to avoid it.
"What? Are you afraid?" Although Yang Jian was about to die, the medicinal soup that killed him was still working, making his mind as clear as before, his eyes still vicious, and Yang Shu had a slight expression on his face. He could see the changes, and even he recalled the situation when his father told him "there is still one more test" when he just became the crown prince, and he felt an inexplicable sense of fear.
Yang Jian's understanding is that this is "instinct", which comes from the instinct hidden in the blood. Perhaps it is the fear of "redness" engraved in the deepest part of the Yang family.
Feeling apprehensive in his heart, but this feeling came in an inexplicable way, Yang Shu shook his head in a daze and replied: "Father, my son has nothing to fear!"
Indeed, Yang Shu was indeed fearless in his heart. In order to survive, and to ascend to the throne that he dreamed of when he was born and was urged by countless people to take it, he was willing to kill even his own brothers. Now that the victory is in his hands, there is only one who has never heard of it before. It's just the "last hurdle" for him, he doesn't need to back down, and he doesn't allow himself to back down.
Yang Jian smiled even brighter. The Yang Shu in his eyes seemed to coincide with his memory when he was young, and he answered the same way back then.
"Very well, I also hope that you can maintain your dignity and majesty as the crown prince." After finishing speaking, Yang Jian stopped talking. The carriage fell into silence again.
In fact, Yang Jian had a lot to say to Yang Shu before this. From the structure of power, to the various methods used by the imperial servants, to the compromise and getting along with the powerful families, and various strategies for the end of the war in the south, he hopes to help his only son now.
But after seeing Yang Shu muster his courage and look at him, Yang Jian changed his mind.
Yang Shu got out of the car and went back to his own car. Yang Xiusheng came back and asked curiously, "Why didn't you say anything?" He was outside the car but he could clearly hear what Yang Jian said to Yang Shu just now, the simplicity surprised him . This is not Yang Jian's temper. This emperor is a character who likes to take everything into consideration. It is the first time I have seen him so sloppy after so long contact.
Yes, Yang Xiusheng just felt that Yang Jian's treatment of the end of the handover of the throne was too hasty, how could he not say anything?
Yang Jian shook his head with a smile, and said, "I wanted to say a lot, but in the end I found it would be better not to say anything than to say so much."
"Why?"
"Because my son is different from me and most of the previous princes of the Yang family." After a pause, Yang Jian could see the doubt in Yang Xiusheng's eyes, so he continued: "The most indispensable thing in him is " Thoughts", along the way, I have never been optimistic about him, and I have also despised him for choosing to abandon the powerful family and family and recruit the world's merchants and emerging nobles with little strength. It was my lost first son.
But as you can see in the end, his idea can be regarded as deviant and unorthodox, but the effect is not bad, and he even has luck that ordinary people can't match, and he finally became my crown prince.
Such a person will become the emperor in the future, do you think he will follow the rules and regulations I gave him? Or do you think that if my ideas conflict with his ideas, will he end up with out-of-the-box methods? "
Yang Xiusheng frowned deeply, and was disturbed by Yang Jian's words. On the one hand, he was amazed by Yang Jian's exquisite mind and courage, so hastily handing over a huge empire to the past without giving any explanation, and it was all up to the descendants to play by themselves.
On the other hand, Yang Xiusheng was very worried, because Yang Jian was right. The foundation of Yang Shu’s foundation and what he relied on and followed for many years were different from what the emperors of the Jing Dynasty had followed for thousands of years. With a strong imprint of "unconventional", if he ascends the throne in the future, he may have a direct conflict with the major families who have occupied the upper echelons of the country for thousands of years. Will this shake the foundation of the country?
Of course, Yang Xiusheng would not open his mouth to interfere with the emperor's decision, but he couldn't help worrying.
Yang Jian smiled, but he wasn't worried at all. He even had a fierce aura that he used to have, especially his eyes, which were so sharp that even Yang Xiusheng was a little startled.
Yang Xiusheng was able to consider that Yang Shu might have conflicts with the old aristocratic families in the future, so how could someone like Yang Jian, who has been in the political game for decades, not understand? It's just that he is not worried about the so-called shaking of the country.
What was the foundation of the old Jing dynasty? Is it those aristocratic families and aristocrats? Yang Jian thought it was before, but now he thinks it's not. Maybe it's the common people in the world? Or is it the "red" in the ancestral hall?
Moreover, is it appropriate for a superstructure of the state regime system to be controlled by aristocratic families and clans for thousands of years? Anyway, Yang Jian felt that this was inappropriate.
It's a pity that Yang Jian didn't think about the structure of the regime until he was dying. Although the emperor of the old Jing Dynasty is still the strongest voice, one day, when the aristocratic families and clans will grow to threaten the imperial power, will future generations blame the ancestors for their negligence?
Now a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, and Yang Jian realized that what he didn't have time to do could just be handed over to Yang Shu? The timing was just right, and Yang Shu was naturally at odds with the old forces, so there was no emotional constraint, so it was just right.
As for what if you mess up? Yang Jian is very open-minded, no matter how messed up, the country will not be disrupted. With "Red", anyone who dares to threaten the rule of the old Jing Dynasty will have to die. It's just that the price paid is a bit high.
Yang Jian did not explain these words to Yang Xiusheng, these are the emperor's thoughts, and others are not qualified to know.
Arriving at Fenghong Villa all the way, because they brought a grand guard of honor, Fenghong Villa also set up the highest ceremonial reception, which was completely different from the last time the emperor came secretly.
Of course, this etiquette is also for Yang Shu, who is about to become the new emperor. No one will miss the opportunity to make a good impression in front of the new emperor.
After the etiquette, the emperor took the crown prince into the ancestral hall. This is an extremely important ceremony for the royal family, second only to the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor in the future.
Or it can be said that the enthronement ceremony is for the outside world, for the world to see. But today's ancestral hall's memorial service is internal, for the royal family's own people to see.
By the time the ceremony was completed, it was already the afternoon of the second day. After this moment, Yang Shu officially completed the preparations for the royal etiquette, and on the basis of the crown prince, he had the conditions to become the new emperor.
"Let's go, there is still heaven and earth in the ancestral hall, I will take you to see the core secrets of my royal family." Yang Jian said, looking at his youngest son with a smile.
