Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

"Yelü Zhangnu! You've gone mad!"

Yelü Dezhong looked at Yelü Zhangnu with disbelief.

How dare he!

"That's the Emperor! The Emperor of our Great Liao! How dare you, how dare you rebel! Do you deserve the surname Yelü?!"

Although Yelü Dezhong admired Wuyan Guang the most, he was loyal to the entire Liao Dynasty, which is why he would never believe that Wuyan Guang would rebel.

"I'm just telling the truth. You know Yelü Yanxi, we grew up together. Do you think he deserves the throne?"

Yelü Zhangnu looked completely indifferent, showing none of the respect he had shown Yelü Yanxi in the palace.

"Whether he is worthy or not is determined by the clan law! The clan law of the Yelü family makes him emperor, so he is emperor!"

As the emperor's younger brother, Yelü Dezhong also had the opportunity to touch the throne, but he never thought about it!

Even though Yelü Yanxi's performance was indeed mediocre, Yelü Dezhong never had such thoughts. In his heart, the Liao Dynasty was forever the Liao Dynasty, and since Yelü Yanxi was considered the emperor by the patriarchal clan system, then he was the emperor!

If he can't be a good emperor, then the other members of the Yelü family can help him.

You can criticize him, offer suggestions, or even argue with him!

But rebellion, that's not allowed!

"If he can't do a good job, and we work hard to help him, but the final result is still unsatisfactory, then why should I help him? Would I just be making trouble for myself?"

Yelü Zhangnu looked completely indifferent.

"So who do you plan to make emperor? Yourself?"

Yelü Dezhong looked Yelü Zhangnu up and down.

"Although you are slightly better than Yelü Yanxi, do you really think you would be a wise ruler?"

Yelü Dezhong's words were very direct and impolite; he felt that Yelü Zhangnu was just daydreaming!

In terms of lineage, Yelü Zhangnu was not among the closest to the throne; in terms of appearance, Yelü Zhangnu was not particularly handsome; in terms of talent, Yelü Zhangnu went to the battlefield with Yelü Erliduo and Xiao Yixue last time, but only Yelü Zhangnu himself was injured. Do you think he was capable?

"Of course it wasn't me."

Yelü Zhangnu stated that he had no desire to be emperor.

"You won't take the job? Then why are you rebelling?"

Yelü Dezhong was completely baffled.

"I want to change to a better emperor, is that not allowed?"

Yelü Zhangnu stated that he simply wanted to find someone else to serve him.

"Who do you want to be emperor? Don't tell me it's General Wuyan!"

Yelü Dezhong's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Previously, when General Wuyan suddenly led his troops westward, Princess Tianshou and several imperial nephews were still in the army, and none of them objected.

Could it be that General Wuyan is really going to ascend the throne?

“Wuyan Guang? I’m not familiar with him.”

To Yelü Dezhong's surprise, Yelü Zhangnu looked completely bewildered upon hearing Wuyan Guang's name.

"Not Commander Wuyan?"

"Of course not. The Liao Dynasty belongs to our Yelü family. How could it be given to someone with a different surname?"

Yelü Zhangnu looked at Yelü Dezhong and said with a hint of sarcasm:

"But you, the first person you thought of was Wuyan Guang? I suddenly feel that what Erido said makes some sense. In your heart, Wuyan Guang's status is probably higher than that of our Yelü family!"

"I don't!"

Yelü Dezhong blushed; indeed, the first person he thought of was Wuyan Guang.

"Come on, like I said, if you really think Wuyan Guang is good, then go and support him. Don't think about him in your heart while saying you are loyal to the Liao Dynasty."

Yelü Zhangnu gave a cold laugh.

"Hmph, that's still better than you rebelling! Who do you want to support?! Are you sure that person is better than Yelü Yanxi?"

Although Yelü Dezhong was in the wrong for a moment, he thought again and realized, "Wait a minute, even if my thoughts are wrong, I have no intention of rebelling!"

You're practically starting a rebellion. What are you talking to me about?

“King Yelü Chun of Wei, also known as our Uncle Chun. He, like you, was once a younger brother of the emperor.”

Yelü Zhangnu didn't mince words and spoke directly.

"Uncle Chun?"

Yelü Dezhong suddenly remembered, "That's right, in the Yelü family, besides him, the Imperial Brother King, there is also the previous generation's King of Wei who has the status of a younger brother of the emperor!"

Moreover, this imperial uncle Yelü Chun is truly extraordinary. He possesses remarkable political skills and is adept at both governing the country and managing local areas.

Before Yelü Yanxi succeeded to the throne, Yelü Chun was already a military governor in various regions and the Prince of Beiping! He was almost made the crown prince!

Yelü Chun held a very high position in the Yelü family!

After Yelü Yanxi ascended the throne, knowing his uncle's prowess, he immediately brought him back to the capital and bestowed upon him the title of Prince of Zheng. Subsequently, Yelü Chun successively served as the Prefect of Tokyo, the Chancellor of the Southern Court, and the Prefect of Nanjing (Nanjing refers to present-day Beijing). His princely rank rose steadily, and he is now the Prince of Wei. He only needs to pay homage to Yelü Yanxi twice a year, ranking first among all the princes!

It can be said that if this person had not refused the throne of the Liao Dynasty back then, the Liao Dynasty might be very different now!

"Yelü Zhangnu, don't make false accusations! How could Uncle Chun possibly plot a rebellion!"

Yelü Dezhong stated that he did not believe Yelü Chun would rebel!

"Uncle Chun isn't committing treason! He's just taking back what's rightfully his!"

Yelü Zhangnu snorted coldly. If it weren't for Yelü Baisibu angering the late emperor back then, and Chunshu himself not having a firm belief in seizing the throne, how could the throne have possibly passed to Yelü Yanxi?

You have to understand that back then, he was just a mere grandson of the emperor!

"What kind of talk is that!"

Yelü Dezhong was displeased. What did he mean by taking back what was rightfully his?

"Heh, I almost forgot. You and Yelü Yanxi share the same father. After your father got into trouble, who protected you both? Don't tell me you've forgotten!"

"Why did Yelü Baisi's problem ultimately implicate Uncle Chun? Yelü Dezhong, do you dare say that you, your brother, and those behind you didn't make a fuss about this?"

“Your brother isn’t cut out to be emperor, and you don’t seem to be up to the task either. So what’s wrong with me bringing Uncle Chun back into power to take over the Liao Dynasty?”

What Yelü Zhangnu said actually makes a lot of sense; at least in his evaluation of Yelü Yanxi, Yelü Dezhong couldn't refute it.

"Now is the time for our Great Liao to wage a decisive battle against the Jurchens. By doing this, you are instigating internal strife within Liao! You are disregarding the safety of all Liao people! You will become a sinner against Liao!"

However, this does not mean that Yelü De agrees with Yelü Zhangnu's viewpoint; that would be absolutely insane!

"Don't give me that! The reason Liao has become like this isn't because I'm the culprit! It's because of your good brother, the emperor! He's become a chronic problem for Liao!"

"As the old saying goes in the Central Plains, a serious illness requires strong medicine! What I'm doing now is to save the Liao Dynasty!"

Yelü Zhangnu waved his arms vigorously, his eyes filled with an indescribable fervor!

"Clang!!"

Yelü Dezhong took two steps back, drew the sword from his waist, and pointed it diagonally at the ground in front of him!

"Yelü Zhangnu! Stop now and I can forgive and forget!"
