When Su Ye Luo saw Xia Chujian getting angry, she bowed and stood aside, not daring to look up at her.
The high priest also hurriedly said, "Don't be angry, Lord."
"When they said the line would be passed down to males, not females, they probably didn't consider the identity of the king..."
"They are not disrespecting the Lord."
Xia Chujian sneered: "Does the high priest also believe that the inheritance should be passed down to males and not females?"
The high priest hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no! Why would I think that?"
"I, Su Mou, only have one child, Su Yeluo!"
Xia Chujian took a deep breath and said, "It's good that you know."
"Su Yeluo, you go and promulgate my will now."
Su Ye Luo hurriedly bowed, turned around and quickly walked back to the hall.
The high priest looked a little worried and said, "Lord, please allow me to go back and take a look."
Xia Chujian nodded and said, "Go ahead."
After the high priest and Su Ye Luo left, Xia Chujian turned around and walked slowly back to the hall.
She arrived about five minutes later than Su Yeluo and the high priest.
At this time, the hall was about to burst into chaos.
The minister who had been given the surname Zong and whom she had just casually pointed at was puffing out his chest and shouting to Su Yeluo, "A woman being the high priestess, aren't you afraid of thunderbolts from heaven?!"
Su Yeluo's face flushed red as she shouted, "Why can't a woman be the high priestess?!"
"What kind of thunder punishment is this? I've never seen it before!"
Xia Chujian snorted lightly and walked over leisurely. He did not go to his seat on the high platform, but stood beside Su Yeluo, looking coldly at the minister with the Zong surname who had just been canonized.
When the minister saw Xia Chujian coming, he hurriedly bowed and saluted, then, as if he had found a lifeline, he said to her anxiously, "Lord, you are here!"
"Is Su Yeluo the secretary you just appointed?"
"How could you appoint a clerk without consulting us?"
Xia Chujian raised an eyebrow: "You mean, as the king, I still need your consent to appoint officials?"
The minister surnamed Zong from the Guxin tribe looked at the other two and said boldly, "We have watched everything the Lord has done over the past ten years."
"It is because we feel that the Lord is acting with discretion that we have finally decided to join the Seven Killings Tribe."
"Besides, since we have decided to establish a country, we must have a set of etiquette."
"If a person is rude, isn't he a beast?!"
Xia Chujian said "Oh" and asked calmly, "Are you going to teach me how to do things?"
The minister surnamed Zong was stunned for a moment and said quickly, "Your Majesty, you are too kind!"
"How dare we teach the Lord what to do?"
"We just hope that the Lord will consult with everyone and follow etiquette as before..."
Xia Chujian continued to ask: "Then what is etiquette? Who has the final say?"
Minister Zong immediately said, "Your Excellency, etiquette must be established by those of us who can read."
"Are you going to let those illiterate slaves and women out there make the decision?"
Xia Chujian remained calm: "You mean you are the one who makes the decision?"
The man smiled broadly, bowed, and said, "I am grateful to Your Excellency for not abandoning me. This is exactly what I had in mind."
"From now on, the monarch can rule with ease, and his subjects can share his worries. Only when the monarch and his subjects get along well with each other can it be considered proper etiquette!"
Is this going to make her the master of the monarch?
Xia Chujian drew his sword with a bang, pointed at the man and said, "So, you want to be the king, right?"
A trace of panic flashed in the man's eyes, and then he waved his hands hurriedly and said, "No, no! I don't have..."
Xia Chujian didn't indulge him either.
With a flash of the knife, the man's head slid off his neck and fell to the ground.
His body was still standing there, and the smugness on his face had not yet faded.
Everyone in the hall was stunned.
A full minute passed before the headless body of the minister surnamed Zong fell to the ground with a loud bang.
The long knife in Xia Chujian's hand was pointing diagonally at the ground, still dripping with blood.
She looked at the man in the hall and said calmly, "Who else wants to teach me how to do things?"
"Who else wants to seize the throne of our country?"
The hall was silent.
Xia Chujian looked at them coldly, the long knife in her hand as white as snow: "Remember this, I, the leader of this country, am a woman."
"Since women can do things that you men can't, don't think about suppressing women."
"As long as I'm here, don't even think about it!"
Su Yeluo hurriedly said, "Lord, can that girl also go to school and learn to read?"
Xia Chujian was stunned: "...women can't do that?"
Su Yeluo looked at Xia Chujian with a somewhat evasive look and whispered, "...you didn't allow me to..."
Only then did Xia Chujian understand why those men dared to suppress women's rights even though she was the leader of the tribe as a woman.
Because it was "she", a woman who was the leader of the tribe, who first suppressed women's rights.
Although she knew that those things were not her intention, they were the plot setting of the game system that took advantage of her absence.
But these game tool people don’t know.
Ten years have passed since they were in the game.
In the past ten years, I wonder how many unfair rules and regulations that "Seven Killers" has promulgated.
Xia Chujian immediately said, "The past is the past. Things have changed now. As the foundation of the Beichen Kingdom, women and men must have equal rights."
"You issue it to me. Those who don't accept it, let them come and tell me."
Xia Chujian pointed at the headless body on the ground and said, "Hang this on the gatehouse."
