Yan Guilai looked at Dongfang Tianxiu in admiration. He knew that what he said was true. He had heard everything with his own ears. Many of the survivors of that battle were now at the foot of Tiantai Mountain.
After taking a deep breath, Yan Guilai said, "The truth is as such. Although the Great Chu royalty has not done much, after a hundred years of subtle influence, everyone has accepted the existence of the Great Chu royalty and acknowledged the leadership of the Great Chu royalty."
After a pause, Yan Guilai continued, "Therefore, the Great Chu royalty cannot be abolished. Otherwise … humanity will lose its backbone and will not know who to listen to." As he spoke, Yan Guilai looked at Bai Bing and Ye Ling and said in a deep voice, "Although the Great Chu royalty has not done anything good over the years, at the very least, the laws and rules issued by the Great Chu royalty are acceptable to the people. The various policies of the Great Chu royalty are also supported by the people.
This is something that no one else can achieve. "
Looking at Yan Guilai hesitantly, Bai Bing said, "Big Brother Chu … Do you mean that we should continue to follow the previous model and …"
Waving his hand, Yan Guilai shook his head and said, "No, the drawbacks of the dynasty have been reflected after a hundred years. This is definitely not suitable for the development of humanity."
Nodding, Bai Bing said in agreement, "That's right. Absolute power will inevitably be accompanied by absolute corruption. The drawbacks of the dynasty system are too great."
With a bitter smile, Ye Ling said, "The drawbacks of the dynasty system are indeed too great. However, as Big Brother Chu said, once the Great Chu royalty is abolished, humanity will instantly become a group of dragons without a leader. At this moment, humanity cannot live without the Great Chu."
Faced with this contradictory situation, everyone frowned and began to ponder bitterly.
However, the more they thought, the more they could not find a solution. This was an extreme contradiction.
The drawbacks of the dynasty system were too great. However, abolishing the dynasty and humanity collapsing without a fight seemed to be wrong no matter what was done.
Looking at everyone's worried faces, Yan Guilai laughed and said, "Actually, there are many things that are not one or the other. Between black and white, there is actually another color — gray!"
Hearing Yan Guilai's words, everyone's heart couldn't help but move. They seemed to have thought of something, but when they thought about it carefully, they couldn't think of anything.
For a moment, everyone looked at Yan Guilai with doubtful eyes.
Under everyone's gaze, Yan Guilai said, "Since everyone knows that absolute power is accompanied by absolute corruption, why don't we deprive the royal family of all their power?"
In the face of Yan Guilai's question, everyone couldn't help but be stunned. Dongfang Tianxiu even shouted, "Are you kidding me? Without power, what kind of dynasty is it?"
In the face of Dongfang Tianxiu's doubts, Yan Guilai said, "What is a dynasty? Who defines it? How does he define it? "
With a bitter smile, Dongfang Tianxiu said, "This is not a question of who defines it. The key point is that the emperor is the master of the world and controls the supreme power. The so-called …"
Waving his hand, Yan Guilai frowned and said, "Where did you hear this from? What right does he have to make such a definition? "
Shaking his head helplessly, Dongfang Tianxiu said, "It's useless for you to twist words and force logic like this. In short … an emperor without power, what kind of emperor is he? A dynasty without power, what kind of dynasty is he?"
Twisting words and forcing logic?
Shaking his head and smiling, Yan Guilai said, "I don't know if I'm twisting words and forcing logic. I only know that … no one has the right to make such a definition. Even if he has this right, why should I listen to him?"
Aiya!
Hearing Yan Guilai's words, Bai Bing slammed the table. Her eyes lit up as she said, "That's right! No matter who said it, it's just the words of one person. Why should we abide by it? "
Nodding her head excitedly, Ye Ling said, "That's right, that's right … Big Brother Chu is the emperor. We are the people in this world who have the most right to define a dynasty. Could it be that the emperor can't define himself and instead rely on others to define him?" Smiling at Ye Ling and Bai Bing, Yan Guilai said, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether everyone accepts it or not. What's important is that I've protected the Great Chu royalty and prevented the people from being leaderless. I've also prevented the royal family from falling into inevitable corruption because of absolute power. Isn't this the best of both worlds?
”
This …
Looking at Yan Guilai with a bitter smile, Dongfang Tianxiu said, "If that's the case, aren't you lying? You're simply selling dog meat under a sheep's head. Do you think the people will believe you? "
Shrugging his shoulders, Yan Guilai said, "Why wouldn't they believe it? You have to know … in name, this world still belongs to the dynasty. The emperor has only distributed his power. Why wouldn't the people believe it? "
Looking at Yan Guilai helplessly, Dongfang Tianxiu said, "What's the use of being in name? After losing their power, what right does the Great Chu royalty have to guarantee their own power and benefits?"
Facing Dongfang Tianxiu's fingerprints, Yan Guilai laughed and said, "In the end, it's still power and benefits. But if there really is power and benefits, then we'll return to the old path. Absolute power will inevitably lead to absolute corruption."
Looking at Yan Guilai hesitantly, Dongfang Tianxiu said, "You mean to say that the Great Chu royalty is only the imperial family in name. In terms of its nature, it's the same as the ordinary people?"
Nodding decisively, Yan Guilai said seriously, "That's right, it's exactly like this … In any case, the Great Chu royalty will no longer have any benefits, and will no longer have any power."
No! No way …
Hearing Yan Guilai's words, Bai Bing suddenly became anxious. She stood up abruptly and said, "In that case, how will you govern? If you don't have power, how will you achieve your political goals? "
Facing Bai Bing's questioning, Yan Guilai laughed and said, "I think … you may have misunderstood. I never wanted to be the emperor. Not in the past, not now, and definitely not in the future."
While speaking, Yan Guilai turned to look at Nangong Hua Yan and Chu Wuqing, then said, "Although I'm not sure who I am, and I don't know if I'm Chu Xingyun, but …"
Taking a deep breath, Chu Xingyun said decisively, "In any case, I have to think of that possibility. I have to think of the possibility that I might be Hua Yan's husband, Chu Wuqing's father."
Nodding in understanding, Bai Bing smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, it has always been the son usurping the father's throne, but I've never heard of the father usurping the son's throne. This human relationship cannot be messed up."
Nodding, Yan Guilai said, "The Great Chu royalty will exist only in name. From now on, the Great Chu royalty will no longer have any power or interest."
After a pause, Chu Xingyun continued, "Under the Great Chu royalty, all power will be divided into three parts."
The first part was the military department, responsible for all matters related to battle.
The second part was the political department, responsible for all matters related to development and construction.
The third part was the legal department, responsible for all matters related to legislation and law enforcement.
Facing Chu Xingyun's arrangement, Bai Bing frowned and said, "This division is indeed very innovative, but … what is the subordinate relationship between the three departments?"
After pondering for a moment, Yan Guilai said decisively, "The three departments are all the highest institutions, and there is no subordinate relationship between them."
