Chapter 823 System Restoration
Thousands of officials and princes.
Even powerful monks were outside the palace, paying homage to the Human Emperor.
Li Qing looked at the people in front of him and waved his hand, saying, "Everyone, please stand up."
Tens of thousands of people shouted "Long live the emperor" and stood up.
"Today, I would like to introduce three people to you."
Li Qing smiled and said, "Three Ancient Saint Emperors, why don't you come out and see me?"
Following Li Qing's words, Huangdi, Yandi and Fuxi walked out from the side hall.
"Three Holy Emperors?"
At this moment, all the officials in the hall were slightly startled, and their expressions changed when they looked at the Three Emperors.
The Three Emperors actually escaped?
And came here?
So what do they want to do?
Bi Gan, Shang Rong and other civil officials all looked surprised and suspicious.
The Three Emperors have their own magical weapons. If they want to compete with Your Majesty for the human world, it will be a big trouble!
After the Three Emperors walked out, they bowed slightly to Li Qing and said, "Greetings to the Contemporary Human Emperor."
Li Qing smiled and waved his hand, saying, "There's no need for the three Holy Emperors to be so polite. I've almost finished discussing everything with you. Now, let's proceed. I have absolutely no objection."
"Your Majesty's breadth of mind is unmatched in the human race from its beginning to the present day. Fuxi deeply admires you."
Fuxi sighed immediately, then turned to look at his ministers and said slowly, "Ever since Dayu became selfish, abolished the abdication system, and made the human race's world a family, the human race's fortune has gradually declined. The people have become increasingly ignorant, their spirit and energy have dissipated, and they are no longer human, but more like beasts."
All the officials were bewildered, and a few clever ones had evil eyes.
However, the Human Emperor did not say anything, but listened with a smile.
It was obvious that this matter was instructed by the Human Emperor. What else could these ministers say?
"Now, His Majesty the Human Emperor has conquered the four seas, brought peace to the world, conquered the Heavenly Court, destroyed the fate, and oppressed all directions, restoring the fate of the human race and even surpassing the ancient times. Until now, everyone is like a dragon, everyone is enlightened, and everyone knows it."
Fuxi bowed slightly to Li Qing, praised his achievements, and continued: "And His Majesty the Human Emperor has such a grand vision, great power, and great generosity. Who else among the younger generation of Human Emperors can match him?
I fear that the human race will return to its old ways in the future. Therefore, His Majesty the Human Emperor has discussed with the three of us a return to the ancient method of electing the Human Emperor, which states: Those who possess virtue, talent, wisdom, ability, benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness will be elected as the Human Emperor and lead the human race.
"What!?"
Bigan was the first to exclaim.
Shang Rong also frowned.
As for the other ministers, they were even more stunned.
"My dear ministers."
Li Qing then spoke calmly, "If we want the human race to prosper forever, not be enslaved by one family, not be fooled by one family, and if we want the human race to always be wise, intelligent, and polite, then we must stop following the hereditary rule."
"Your Majesty! This move is likely to cause great unrest!"
Bigan stepped out and shouted, "The Yin dynasty is recognized by all the people. How can we just randomly change the throne?
Who is qualified to be the Emperor, Your Majesty? "
As a descendant of the Yin family, Bigan naturally did not want to restore the abdication system. This was no longer a question of selfishness, but a question of the ancestral foundation!
And now, this Emperor, Emperor Xin, Yin Zishou, actually wants to return the ancestral heritage to the world!?
"What kind of turmoil could there be?"
Li Qing shook his head and said, "The election of the Human Emperor is a process of selecting from among thousands of officials. From then on, the capable will be promoted, the mediocre will be given way, and the incompetent will be demoted. This is the only way for the human race to prosper. A hereditary monarchy will only breed useless people, and even bring disaster to the country and the people. In the end, the people will suffer."
Bigan's face trembled, but he couldn't say anything.
He really wanted to yell at Li Qing, this is the legacy left by our ancestors!
This is the legacy our ancestors laid down for us! You're a spendthrift!
But Li Qing held the righteousness and did everything for the human race. Once this sentence came out of his mouth, Bi Gan could not say anything. If he said anything, he would be a sinner of the human race.
"Your Majesty is wise and mighty!!"
Instead, a voice was heard.
Shen Gongbao was the first to fall to the ground and shout, "This is a benevolent act. For generations to come, all mankind will remember your majesty's great achievements!"
"Your Majesty's great achievements will be remembered forever by future generations!"
At this moment, except for the officials and descendants of the Yin family, countless other ministers and immortal generals all knelt on the ground and cheered.
Li Qing sighed softly and looked up at the sky.
I am outside the ancient world, and I don’t know when I will be able to understand the chaotic avenue of power.
Well, he was lying...
There's no way, this is a white lie...
But he wasn't sure if Yao knew he was lying to her. Maybe she just wanted an explanation.
"The Emperor abdicates. From this moment on, the name of the kingdom will remain unchanged and will remain Shang."
Li Qing retracted his gaze and looked at the ministers and said, "I wonder if you all have in mind the best candidate for the Human Emperor?
Of course, I am an exception. Also, Jiao'er and Hong'er are not allowed to be chosen."
The ministers were already confused by this sudden and shocking announcement.
Now who has the time or energy to think about who is the candidate for the Human Emperor?
Bigan?
Business appearance?
Wen Zhong?
Or who?
Seeing that the ministers were dazed and at a loss,
Li Qing laughed out loud and looked up at Dong Bohou Jiang Huanchu.
At this moment, Jiang Huanchu had a serious expression on his face, as if he was thinking about something.
Under the system of abdication, it is not just about changing the emperor.
If you think about it carefully, it is very likely that in the future there will be no more princes, and the world will be unified under centralized power.
