“Impossible. I am different from you. I am a successor of the Legalist school. I must carry forward the ideas of the Legalist school. This is the meaning of my life, Chen Jinnan.”

“If I cannot pass on the Legalist school, I will be a sinner of the Legalist school, and after I die, I will have no face to meet my ancestors.”

Looking at Chen Jinnan, who was lost in his fantasies, the Eternal Mother said helplessly, "No, does promoting Legalist thought necessarily mean rebelling?"

“How can I promote Legalist thought if I don’t rebel and establish my own country?”

"The core idea of ​​Legalism is to govern the country according to law, and everyone is bound by legal principles. Regardless of gender or age, everyone is equal before the law."

"Why don't you just establish your own country instead of rebelling against someone else?"

"Besides the Liao, Ming, and Manchu kingdoms, there are many smaller ones in this world..."

As the Eternal Mother finished speaking, she suddenly sat up.

“That’s right, how come I didn’t think of that? We don’t necessarily have to go to these three big countries. We can turn our attention to those smaller countries.”

"Dali, Goguryeo, Tubo, Gaoshan people, there aren't many experts in these places, and people are easy to deceive. Why don't we go to those places first, and then slowly figure out a way after our strength has grown?"

Upon hearing his words, Chen Jinnan suddenly realized: "That's right, and what about those Western countries? Where are we going? We don't necessarily have to fight to the death with that immortal disciple."

The two men exchanged a glance, their eyes growing brighter and brighter. Thus, the two brothers embarked on the first step in the Ming Dynasty's expansion.
