Chapter 1047: I Have a Good Ancestor (Second Bigger Chapter, Monthly Ticket +)

Zong Ruoning knew that this matter could not be punished openly.

At present they have no direct evidence, not even any witnesses.

Because even if Her Royal Highness the Princess had been negligent before, she must have executed all the people involved by now.

Even if there are some fish that have slipped through the net, they won't be able to find them in a short time.

Secondly, this incident was also a huge blow to Mr. Zong.

After all, he was plotted against by his closest relatives. This was a heavy blow to Mr. Zong, who had always been proud of the kindness of fathers and filial piety of sons, and the friendship of brothers and respect of younger brothers in his clan.

Zong Ruoning was not even sure how severely his grandfather could punish his second aunt or his second uncle, now that his father had died and his third uncle was unable to handle the case.

What's more, behind Second Aunt, there is His Majesty the Emperor...

This is simply not something they can touch.

What's more important is that once everything is revealed, the fresh blood unicorn leaf in his hand will be the first to be questioned by some people, and Xia Chujian may even be dragged into it...

Although he had made all kinds of preparations, he always took the blame for the incident and claimed that he had obtained it.

However, he did not hide what he gained from this trip to Green Star, and it would be easy to find out and let people know that he was lying.

During their trip to Green Star, only Xia Chujian and his team had surrendered a fresh blood unicorn.

Although she got it from Green Star, this also proves that she concealed something about what she got from Green Star.

Isn't this exactly what His Majesty the Emperor is most afraid of right now?

The torture and temptations that His Majesty the Emperor had inflicted on Xia Chujian before were not just because he was suspicious of how many things she had concealed about this starry sky adventure?

Zong Ruoning knew very well that people in high positions were all suspicious.

The emperor's suspicion was particularly serious, and had reached the point of being "incurable".

Xia Chujian has now lost her memory of entering the Gate of God's Descent, but she still retains the memory before that.

Mr. Zong sneered: "Do you think that your second aunt is the only one who is concerned about this matter?"

Zong Ruoning: "..."

Mr. Zong looked at him and began to teach him as usual: "You should also know who is behind your second aunt."

Zong Ruoning's heart skipped a beat, but he still looked gentle and asked in confusion: "...Your Majesty? Why?"

Master Zong calmed down and said, "Why?"

"The four nobles may seem high and mighty, but they have always been a thorn in the side of the Tantai royal family."

"But for some reason, they didn't dare to do anything to us."

Zong Ruoning hurriedly asked, "Is it because of the ancestral precepts of the Tantai royal family?"

"That was later written into the constitution of the Beichen Empire!"

During the constitutional monarchy, the four great nobles united the vast majority of nobles, confronted the imperial power, and ultimately determined the legal status of the four great nobles.

After all, they knew that if they relied solely on ancestral teachings to maintain their status, they would have to rely on the royal family's own "self-discipline."

When has the royal family ever exercised self-discipline over their power?

Unless you have no other choice, you have to exercise "self-discipline".

So when they finally waited for an opportunity, they immediately united and forced the emperor to sign the constitutional monarchy bill.

From then on, the emperor gave up some power, and even allowed the Senate, which was composed of the military, nobles and civilians, and the cabinet to share some power with the royal family.

But Master Zong just sneered and said, "Aning, don't have unrealistic fantasies about the royal family, and don't think that everything will be fine just because the emperor signed the constitutional monarchy bill."

Zong Ruoning looked at Mr. Zong in confusion.

Mr. Zong said meaningfully: "Since laws can be made, they can also be abolished."

"As long as the royal family still exists, one day, they will take back all the power..."

"And to achieve this goal, the first target they must eliminate is our four nobles."

Zong Ruoning's pupils shrank sharply: "Grandfather! His Majesty the Emperor wouldn't be so cruel!"

Mr. Zong looked at himself, then looked back at the medical cabin and said, "What do you think?"

"Hasn't this already been done?"

Zong Ruoning found it unbelievable: "...Isn't it because the Second Branch wants the inheritance of the Zong family, so...?"

Mr. Zong nodded, then shook his head and said, "The second son and his family do want the inheritance rights of the Zong family."

"But the emperor was able to help them. Do you think he did it just for his sister?"

Zong Ruoning was greatly shocked.

Elder Zong went on to say, “This time, the emperor even used the dried blood unicorn, which is enough to show his determination.”

He touched the back of his head and said with lingering fear: "If the family emblems of our four noble families had not disappeared, the royal family would not have dared to be so excessive..."

This was information that Zong Ruoning had never known.

He didn't say anything else, and listened to Mr. Zong's story with bated breath.

Because Mr. Zong almost died at the hands of his own people this time, he also felt that it was time to prepare for the transfer of power.

Although he still has hundreds of years to live, there is no need for Zong Ruoning to take over the Zong family immediately.

But it's always better to be prepared.

In case he is unlucky and encounters such a thing again in the future, Zong Ruoning is mentally prepared.

At the same time, the manpower in the family will be transferred to Zong Ruoning one by one.

Thinking this, Mr. Zong told him a secret of the unification of the Zong family or the four great noble families.

"Ruoning, you have seen our clan emblem, but did you know that we once had a seal that represented the Zong family?"

"That was passed down from the founding emperor of the Beichen Empire, Tan Tailin."

Zong Ruoning casually took out a seal and said, "Is this it?"

Without even looking at it, Mr. Zong said, "This is fake, just a replica. The real one has long since disappeared."

Zong Ruoning: “!!!”

Could it be that the thing he carried around like a treasure was just a fake?!
Zong Ruoning asked in confusion: "But many of our important documents use it as proof..."

The seal used in stamping is the one in his hand.

Mr. Zong said, "It's just a proof. You can carve one out of a carrot and it will cover it up."

"But the difference between the seals I'm talking about is not the content engraved on them, but the material of the seals."

"When we four nobles were conferred titles, we were all blessed by the founding emperor and given a family emblem."

"The material of that emblem seal is the same as that of the national seal."

"It even comes from the same treasure as the national seal."

Zong Ruoning looked at the jade-like clan emblem on his palm and subconsciously asked, "What kind of material is it?"

Master Zong said slowly: "...the maze of the underworld."

Zong Ruoning raised his head abruptly: "So this is the real reason why you asked me to go there in person to find the maze of Huangquan?!"

Mr. Zong closed his eyes and said, "Yes and no."

"Back then, your father won a great victory in the Starry Sky Battlefield, but on his way back, he got news of the Maze Yellow Spring and went to pursue it. Unfortunately, he fell into a space crack and died in the Starry Sky Battlefield."

After so many years, Zong Ruoning finally knew the real reason why his father died in the starry sky battlefield!

It was for the maze of Huangquan again...

Zong Ruoning's chest was filled with emotions he didn't even know he had. After a while, he said regretfully, "This time, I still couldn't find the maze."

Mr. Zong's face darkened and he said, "We didn't find it, but His Majesty the Emperor did."

Zong Ruoning frowned: "What did you say? How did you know?"

Mr. Zong did not say how he knew.

But as the Grand Duke of one of the four great noble families, he also had the Zong family's military industry in his hands, and his sons, grandsons, brothers, nephews, and cousins ​​were spread throughout the Beichen Empire government and inside and outside the palace.

He naturally has his own information channels.

Mr. Zong did not answer Zong Ruoning's question and continued, "A total of nine pieces of the Yellow Spring were found that year."

"The royal family took five copies, accounting for the majority, and they carved it into the imperial seal."

"The other four copies will be given to each of our four great noble families and carved into family emblems."

"These five seals are a symbol of the emperor and the four great nobles ruling the world together."

"It can also protect us from being controlled by the royal family's supernatural powers."

Zong Ruoning understood a little at this time, and hurriedly said: "What should we do? How long have we been lost? Does anyone know?"

Master Zong sneered and said, "What does it matter?"

"Anyway, our clan emblems and seals, as well as the imperial seal, are all lost!"

"Hahahaha! They're all lost! You deserve it! You deserve it!"

Zong Ruoning was suddenly shocked when he heard this and said, "No way? Is the current imperial seal also fake?!"

Mr. Zong nodded slowly: "The current imperial seal is carved from a piece of Huanglong jade that looks similar to the Maze Yellow Spring."

"However, no one else knows about this matter except the emperor himself and the heads of the four noble families."

He looked at Zong Ruoning and said, "Now you know it too."

Zong Ruoning was extremely excited.

Although he always knew that his grandfather was training him as the heir, he always felt that the second branch was also very powerful.

Especially since his second aunt was the eldest princess of the empire, he once felt that he could not compete with such a status.

So when his mother asked him to put aside all external things and stay at home with him, he obeyed and even wanted to be an "invisible person" in the family.

But my grandfather didn't agree.

During the seven years that he stayed at home and ignored the world, his grandfather still kept him by his side and handed over all the family affairs to him.

Today, he was even told all the secrets of the successive clan leaders!
To Zong Ruoning, this trust is more important than any inheritance.

Zong Ruoning said softly, "Grandfather, don't worry. This matter will rot in my heart."

Mr. Zong laughed and said, "No need to be so cautious."

"This is something that everyone knows about. In fact, the heirs of the major families know something about it."

"You don't have to care."

Zong Ruoning: "..."

Mr. Zong found it even funnier when he saw the change in his eldest grandson's expression.

He really likes teasing this child who has looked mature since he was a child.

Mr. Zong smiled until his eyes narrowed, and said, "No one has it anyway, so this is a kind of balance."

"But now, the Beichen royal family has found a piece of the Yellow Spring. This is not good news for us four noble families."

Zong Ruoning hurriedly asked, "Where was it found? Do you have any clues? We can go to that place and look for it again."

Master Zong said with a strange expression: "It is on Green Star."

"I heard that it was found by a student at the Empire's First Military Academy, and then personally delivered to Your Majesty by the Chief Inspector of the Special Security Bureau."

a student?
Zong Ruoning's expression also became strange.

Could it be the one he was thinking of?
Mr. Zong said, "I'm still trying to find out which student it is."

"Anyway, your school did get a lot of good stuff on this trip to Green Star!"

Zong Ruoning thought for a moment and said, "Yes, Green Star does have a lot of good things."

"This time I happened to be able to get some fresh blood unicorn leaves, which I also brought back from Green Star."

"There are countless exotic flowers and plants, rare minerals, and so many other things there."

Mr. Zong was fascinated and said, "What a great place..."

Changing the subject, "But I heard that the military can't find the Green Star again, is that right?"

Zong Ruoning nodded: "At that time, the Green Star had already split off a satellite."

"What happened afterwards, I don't know."

"I came back with the main force."

Mr. Zong said, "I heard that one of your students lost contact there. Have you found him?"

Xia Chujian's disappearance on Green Star was no secret among the upper echelons of the empire.

Zong Ruoning pulled at his collar unnaturally before saying, "I'm back, but the emperor tormented me a lot."

"Her brain tissue is covered in brain fog, especially her hippocampus. It is said that the emperor asked someone with special abilities to test her, and found that her hippocampus has been destroyed."

Mr. Zong shook his head regretfully: "The Tantai royal family has always been like this..."

"They have never known what it means to accumulate virtue, let alone what it means to serve the country and the people."

"You're doing it too hard..."

Zong Ruoning looked at Mr. Zong.

He had never heard his grandfather speak so harshly about the royal family.

This time, he must have been so angry with the emperor that he spoke rudely.

Zong Ruoning followed up and said, "Grandfather, how could they still sit on the throne for ten thousand years when they did such evil things?"

The old man sighed: "...I have a good ancestor! I can't compare...I can't compare..."

After saying that, he yawned and looked sleepy.

Zong Ruoning hurriedly said, "Grandfather, let me help you back to the bedroom."

Mr. Zong’s bedroom is next to the medical room.

When people get older, they like to live closer to the hospital.

Mr. Zong went a step further and placed the best medical equipment directly next to his bedroom.

The two suites are connected together and confidentiality measures are very strict.

This time, Mr. Zong also suffered a loss at the hands of his own people.

If it wasn't for his granddaughter Zong Qianxi plotting against him...

Thinking of this, Mr. Zong narrowed his eyes and said, "Ruoning, find someone to draft a lawyer's letter for me and post it immediately on the Zong family's official Xingbo account."

Zong Ruoning nodded: "What do you want to do?"

Mr. Zong said coldly: "Zong Qianxi is expelled from the Zong family tree. She is not allowed to have the surname Zong. She is no longer a descendant of our Zong family."
