Murong Lan breathed a long sigh of relief: "I hope so." At this point, the corners of her mouth curled up, and she wanted to speak, but hesitated and hesitated.
Murong Chui glanced at Murong Lan and said calmly: "Alan, do you have anything else to say? Is it about Lin'er?"
Murong Lan nodded and said seriously: "Yes, it's not that I, as an aunt, have any prejudice against Lin'er, but this time he gave me a very bad feeling. I think he may put his own interests before Above the interests of the family and Dayan."
Murong Chui smiled slightly: "Alan, do you think I don't know these principles? But don't forget, this is the tradition of our Murong family."
Murong Lan's eyes widened in surprise: "Could it be that you, eldest brother, deliberately let all the sons compete for the position of the heir apparent?"
Murong Chui nodded: "Yes, I know there are risks in doing this, but it is also a last resort. Alan, do you know how our Dayan perished?"
Murong Lan sighed: "Because Murong Wei was young, the power was controlled by the Taifu Murong Ping and the Queen Mother Kezu Hun. They were jealous of their eldest brother and framed him, which led to the alienation of the people, demoralization and defeat in the final battle."
Murong Chui shook his head: "No, these are just superficial. The real reason is that our Murong family has lost the correct way of choosing a lord. We no longer let the disciples fight each other and let the most capable and the most powerful as before." A capable person gets the position of head of the family. This allows a loser like Murong Wei to ascend to the big position, and ultimately harms the entire country."
Murong Lan frowned: "But this kind of eldest son ascending to the throne is the last change our Murong family made after learning from the lessons of brothers fighting and killing each other for many years."
"I think of my Murong family, which has produced outstanding people from generation to generation. In the early years, Murong Tuyuhun and his late father, Duke Xian, were both brothers, but Tuyuhun was the eldest brother. Their subordinates fought over the racecourse. Tuyuhun led his subordinates in anger. More than a thousand tents fell thousands of miles away, all the way to the land of Hehuang. This is the first split of our Murong family."
"When it came to the time of my late father, Duke Huang, he and his eldest brother Murong Han reenacted the brotherly feud between their fathers, so much so that Duke Han once left Liaodong and joined the Ministry of Yuwen. Later, inspired by his mother, he returned to the country and helped me, the Murong family, to annihilate He conquered the Yuwen tribe and unified Liaodong, but because of his great achievements, he was finally forced to commit suicide. This kind of brotherly rivalry and fratricide from generation to generation has run through the history of our Murong family for more than a hundred years. My late father died in Uncle Han After that, I personally ordered that we will learn from the Han people’s inheritance system of the eldest son. This is something you and I both know.”
Murong Chui sneered and said: "That kind of fratricide between brothers may be cruel to the loser, but only through such competition can we ensure that the one who finally takes the position of head of the family must be the best disciple. If there was no Tuyuhun, How can an excellent competitor like Uncle Han, our great father, always motivate himself, never relax, and hone his abilities?"
"When it came to my good brother Murong Jun, because he was the legitimate son, he inherited the throne, but his world was all won by me and Murong Ke, and he himself was addicted to wine and sex, and after he entered the Central Plains He died young, and what's more terrible is that not only did he leave behind a cowardly and incompetent son Murong Wei, but he also handed over the country's affairs to a villain like Murong Ping. The biggest culprit for the demise of our country, Yan, was this one. Murong Jun."
Murong Lan sighed: "But after all, this system ensures that there will be no civil strife within the more than ten years since we took over the Central Plains. If we continue to kill each other in order to compete for the position of the head of the family, as before, then we may not have a chance to enter the Central Plains."
Murong Chui shook his head: "If we can't guarantee that the best person will lead everyone as the head of the family, it would be better not to enter the Central Plains. Even if we do, we will soon lose the world. The so-called competition in the Central Plains, when these heroes rise together. , everything has to be fought for, and thinking about it is impossible to keep it. Since Murong Jun made the decision to move his family to the Central Plains, he cannot enjoy himself comfortably. Even Fu Jian knew that he must dominate the world in his lifetime, but he did not have this awareness. Even if He doesn’t have the ability himself, so at least he should let capable people in the clan do it instead of letting his weak and incompetent young son and ignorant wife decide Dayan’s fate!”
Murong Lan's eyes were filled with water and she looked at Murong Chui: "So, brother, you have decided to start competing for the heir apparent of your family again and let your sons compete for this position?"
Murong Chui said sternly: "Yes, the person who takes over Dayan after me in the future must be the best in the family. Not only my son, but also the other nephews and nephews of the Murong family who are in the fifth service can compete for the position of the heir apparent. . I just want everyone to see that even Murong Lin, the traitor who once betrayed me, can have a chance to compete for the future leader, who wouldn't have a chance?"
Murong Lan shook his head: "But there is something wrong with Lin'er's motives. He is definitely not for the future of the Murong family, but just for his own plans. I'm afraid that he will harm the revival of our Great Yan Kingdom."
Murong Chui nodded: "I have also considered this, but Lin'er is extremely capable after all. As long as we take strict precautions against him to prevent him from ruining big things due to personal factors, I think he can still succeed. Just like this time In Shouchun, he did a good job and put pressure on the farmers. In the future, these children can compete with each other and compete for meritorious deeds. Then there is hope for the revival of the Yan Kingdom. After all, it is impossible for me to distinguish a few. As an individual, there must be someone who takes charge.”
Murong Lan sighed: "I still hope that the eldest brother can carefully consider the words of the younger sister. For Lin'er, try not to let him perform too important tasks. I'm afraid that if there is a task to determine the position of the prince, he will Ruining big things because of selfish interests, after all, if you are not doing as well as others, then finding ways to make others mess up is also a way to fight for position."
Murong Chui smiled slightly, with a hint of coldness in his eyes: "Alan, do you really think that I will give the position of prince to Lin'er? You are wrong. When I conquer the world, I need my nephews and nephews to have hope. , everyone contributes. As for after we rebuild Dayan, of course we still need a person with good character and ability to inherit this position. Maybe your favorite Liu Yu also has this possibility."
Murong Lan opened her mouth in surprise: "How, how is this possible?"
Murong Chui smiled and patted Murong Lan on the shoulder: "It depends on whether you can get him to come to our Murong family. To be honest, if Liu Yu is my son, then there is no need to take the position of head of the family. Go out and compete.”
Murong Lan's face turned slightly red and she turned around and left: "I will go to Jin camp tomorrow. Brother, I will do everything according to your instructions."
