The Yanchu royal family has never had a fixed day for sacrifices.
Generally speaking, the old monarch decides when to abdicate, and the royal family will hold sacrifices when.
The time of offering sacrifices is also the time to recognize ancestors and return to their clan.
For example, when the previous king succeeded to the throne, because he was the heir of the princess, the princess changed her identity and became the dowager.
As long as it is not a direct bloodline inheritance, the new emperor's identity in the royal family tree will also have to be changed.
Qin Jiaoxi looked at the message on the banner and said in astonishment: "Didn't you say that heirs without Yuehen cannot inherit the orthodoxy?"
Bo Jiming nodded and said, "It stands to reason."
"Without the moon marks, you cannot pass through the inheritance gate of the royal family and ancestral hall. This is also the reason why the Yanchu Kingdom has grown increasingly stronger over the past hundreds of years!"
Qin Jiaoxi frowned and said: "I remember you also mentioned that countless royal family members have secretly tried various methods and determined that people without moon marks on the door of the royal ancestral hall will not be able to pass. That's why Yan Chu has been able to pass through it for so many years.
It perfectly avoids the battle for the right to inherit the throne and retains the most bloodline of the royal family!"
Bo Ji said clearly: "Yes, so those who are sure that they have no hope of climbing to the highest position, but their children may be born with Yuehen, will do their best to protect the royal family and the emperor!"
In this way, the royal family will only become stronger and stronger.
But because of this, it can’t stand any trouble.
Especially moon marks, which can never be faked. Once it is discovered that fake moon marks can appear, it will have a devastating impact on the entire royal family inheritance.
Qin Jiaoxi finally realized the problem.
The old emperor of the Yanchu royal family took so long to decide to hold a royal sacrifice and let the new king succeed, which means that he, or they, have found a way to let the prince pass through that door.
However, at this critical moment, Meng Yinqin came back. Isn't this obviously trying to compete with the prince for his position?
Even if he didn't think so himself, there were still 100,000 troops who came back with Meng Yinqin!
Qin Jiaoxi quickly said: "Does my father know about this?"
Bo Jiming nodded: "This strip of cloth was handed out from his hand!"
Meng Yinqin is not without power here.
On the contrary, some people who secretly know his identity are quietly supporting him and waiting for his return.
The corners of Qin Jiaoxi's mouth twitched: "Then...what does my father think now?"
"He really wants to compete with the prince..."
Bo Jiming covered his mouth: "Shh, you can't say that!"
"Xi'er, if you really understand Yanchu's royal heritage thoroughly, you will know that this can only be said to be the prince taking your father's position, do you understand?"
The current prince is not a person of bad moral character. Perhaps it is because he is stared at by countless pairs of eyes, or because he feels guilty and always feels that he will be questioned. In the past six years, the prince has behaved dignifiedly and steadily, for fear of making mistakes.
He had been anxiously waiting for the day of the royal sacrifice for six years.
But Meng Yinqin's return will not only break this illusion, but also make the prince's six years of persistence become a joke.
Not only will he become a joke, but he may lose his status and future in the entire royal family.
Bo Jiming continued: "People who know the truth may think that the prince is trying to support the Yanchu royal family, but people who don't know the truth will definitely think that he is seeking power and usurping the throne!"
The prince will not be reconciled.
No one would be willing to do this!
And now that we’ve started, why not keep going?
Thinking of this, Qin Jiaoxi's heart tightened: "Then will my father be in danger?"
Bo Jiming shrugged: "Anyway, as far as I know, the second wave of assassinations arriving at Shuizhuang Town has ended. If nothing else, the third wave is on the way."
Qin Jiaoxi took a breath of cold air: "What? Assassination? Is there a separate location?"
So blatant?
Bo Jiming spread his hands: "What else? Do you really think we have a safe journey this way?"
Qin Jiaoxi looked at him in shock: "Why don't I know?"
Bo Jiming shook his head and smiled: "If you find out, wouldn't all your father's secret guards be derelict in their duties?"
While the two were talking, they suddenly heard a noise outside.
Qin Jiaoxi quickly jumped out of bed, and Bo Jiming moved skillfully to get her clothes and put them on.
When Ah Xin ran in after realizing it, Qin Jiaoxi was already dressed.
Axin: "..."
Just, suddenly I feel like this maid is superfluous?
Qin Jiaoxi ignored her and ran out with Bo Jiming.
The noise outside has become louder and louder.
"...Yes, that's right. I heard about this a few days ago, and now that I think about it, it must be true!"
"Let them all get out and don't stay here with us!"
"You're right, get out!"
Then came Zijiu's voice: "Fellow folks, you may have misunderstood. This matter has nothing to do with our master!"
"It doesn't matter if you say it doesn't matter. When will it be the turn for an outsider like you to speak up about our affairs in Shuizhuang Town?"
"Hey, get out of here too. You just came to our town not long ago. Ever since you came, our town has been in trouble. You all, get out of here!"
Although Zijiu was trained to be calm and calm when encountering difficulties, she could not resist a group of unreasonable people on her own.
Soon he was surrounded by people and pushed into a corner.
In the end, Bo Jiming stepped forward and pulled her out of the crowd.
"What's going on?"
Zijiu struggled to protect her clothes and hair: "They said someone in the town died!"
"Several people died!"
"They were all killed and found on the outskirts of the city!"
Several of Meng Yinqin's subordinates quickly came over to separate the people, and escorted everyone in the courtyard back to the house.
But they still shouted: "Before you came, we had not had such an accident in Shuizhuang Town for ten years!"
"No one has ever disappeared and died so suddenly!"
"You must have brought disaster!"
"Get out, get out of our Shuizhuang Town!"
"Foreigners, get out of our Yanchu country!"
Qin Jiaoxi was surprised: "Who are they talking about who suddenly disappeared and died?"
Bo Jiming sighed: "Some of those assassins are from Shuizhuang Town!"
"In short, they were indeed killed by our people!"
Qin Jiaoxi's eyes widened: "You mean, the people living in this town are... the ones who came to assassinate my father?"
Bo Jiming clicked his tongue and said, "You don't have to be so surprised. If there are no surprises, there should be assassins in every city or town to intercept us!"
"It's good to be able to assassinate, but if we can't...then someone will definitely incite the people to let us leave!"
Bo Jiming narrowed his eyes: "But if His Royal Highness is only at this level, I would think highly of him!"
Qin Jiaoxi frowned and said, "What should we do now? How should we explain to these people?"
How could they possibly believe that the people in their town were at this moment?
