He supposedly did die from that. He was cremated so nobody actually knows for certain aside from the romanticized writings. He was deified after death, so it's likely that tons of stuff we know about the events are twisted.

I'm saying the assassination failed because even after he died his lineage took power. They wanted to prevent a monarchy.

Sorry but what is a lineage ?

Your parents, your self, and your offspring are all part of a lineage. It's a family line.

That works in the context I used it in, but Legacy is only in the forward direction. You can be your father's legacy but he cannot be yours. Lineage describes all of the members of the family line.
