Chapter 9 The Emperor [Part 2]
Chapter 9 The Human Emperor [Part 2]
Zhang Liang paused for a moment, giving everyone time to digest, and then continued: "So, no matter what, the Human Emperor must be selected as soon as possible. In order to select the Human Emperor as soon as possible, the patriarch of our Feixian Family made a decision to use the method of anonymous ***. Those with the most votes can become the first Human Emperor!"
"Perhaps some people will say that choosing the Human Emperor is too much a joke! But as long as China and Earth can be peaceful, the people can rest and recuperate, and national strength can be improved, any method of playing is worth trying! So now, don't consider whether the method of electing the Human Emperor is correct, but consider who to choose!"
Zhang Liang stopped talking again, gave everyone time to think, and then said again: "Now! I will announce two lists, one list of civil servants and the other list of military generals. Among them, the people on the list of civil servants are qualified to become senators, and also the candidates for the election of the emperor!"
"The list of civil officials is 57, namely Lei Dong, Chang Wei, Xu Sanhe, Ma Chengqiu, Zhang Jiao..."
"The list of military generals is 76, namely Zhu Jiukang, Wu Qi, and Hu Zhen..."
After Zhang Liang finished reading two lists, the people who were pronounced showed joy on their faces, while those who were not pronounced their names frowned.
"Cough cough." Zhang Liang coughed twice, moistening his throat, and then said loudly: "Everyone, the fifty-seven civil servants I just read are qualified to run for the senator, but only fifteen senators are required. Therefore, forty-two people will lose the election, and the forty-two people who lost the election will enter the second-level House of Representatives and become members of the House of Representatives!"
"Of course, there are not only forty-two members of the House of Representatives. At present, there are no restricted seats in the House of Representatives. Those present are qualified to attend this conference and they are qualified to become members of the House of Representatives. In addition, because the House of Representatives is invented, the affairs must be very heavy. Therefore, after discussions between our patriarch and several other immortal disciples, those who do it can be exempted from the assessment to become members of the House of Representatives."
Before Zhang Liang finished speaking, the people in the audience had different expressions, but confirmed that no one was talking. Zhang Liang listened to the words, took the word, and then continued: "I think everyone has understood it. Next is to cut the mess quickly. Among the 57 candidates for senator, fifteen more optimistic candidates were selected..."
"Everyone has paper and pen on the table. You can write fifteen names on paper. After a cup of tea, someone will collect the ***. Then, the old Marshal Zhu Jiukang and Duke Lei Dong, as well as the fifteen people with the largest number of votes will become the first Senate members!"
"Okay! Everyone can start writing now!"
After Zhang Liang finished speaking, the people in the audience picked up paper and pens, and some people wrote down fifteen names in one breath as if they were gods; some people thought hard and had a lot of energy to write all fifteen names.
After a cup of tea, Zhang Liang, Zhu Jiukang and Lei Dong took action, collected the ***s of everyone present, and then began to count the votes.
Half an hour later, Zhang Liang walked to the podium again and said, "Everyone, the fifteen people with the largest number of votes have been counted. It is not convenient to read it out. Marshal Zhu Jiukang is also asked to reveal the answer to everyone."
After Zhang Liang finished speaking, he consciously stepped down from the podium, and Zhu Jiukang walked onto the podium, and then said loudly: "Everyone, before the answer is revealed, I, the old man who is a member of the sacred wood, say a few words."
"Everyone knows that I am an old man, I have not had enough food and clothing since I was a child. I went to the military camp to eat and drink. In order to eat better, I kept climbing up, climbing from a soldier to a marshal. I thought about it myself and felt it was incredible."
Zhu Jiukang was full of sighs, but everyone in the audience was moved and sighed that it was too difficult for civilians to make a name for themselves. Joining the army was indeed one of the ways out for civilians, but it was also very difficult. Martial arts were one side, knowledge was the other side, and opportunities were also the other side. Zhu Jiukang had a rough life, and had experienced hundreds of battles of all sizes, and he didn't know whether he should be lucky or unfortunate? However, he did not die on the battlefield, but survived again and again, and reached the peak. He was a legend, one that made all the people and civil and military officials give him a thumbs up.
Zhu Jiukang sighed and continued: "In recent years, years of natural disasters have occurred. I also know that the Ming Dynasty is over, but I always hold all kinds of thoughts and try to turn the tide, but Middle Earth is becoming more and more chaotic..."
"Fortunately, God is pitying the people. The Feixian family was born and received the decree of the immortals to quell the war and prevent the people from suffering from the war."
"Originally, I was very dissatisfied with this election of the Human Emperor, but if I think about it carefully, if there is no result in this election, the people of the world will fall into war again, which makes me feel unbearable. At this point, I suppressed my dissatisfaction with the Feixian family and decided to support this election! In addition..."
"Whether you have any opinions or dissatisfaction with the results of this election, I hope that everyone will give up their emotions for the sake of the people and follow the arrangements for the time being. After three years, everyone can participate in the election again based on their strength!"
After Zhu Jiukang finished speaking, most of the expressions in the audience changed, because Zhu Jiukang's words were quite a sign of him. Zhu Jiukang recognized the Feixian family, and the strength represented by Zhu Jiukang recognized the Human Emperor election. Immediately, many people had to re-touch the abacus in their hearts.
Zhu Jiukang glanced at the crowd below, then took a deep breath, took out the list at the same time, and said loudly: "Okay, I won't be too verbose. Now I will announce the list of 15 senators selected, namely Lei Dong, Zhang Jiao, and Chang Wei..."
After Zhu Jiukang finished reading, he clasped his fists at the bottom of the stage and walked down the podium. Zhang Liang walked onto the podium again and said, "The members of the Senate Hall have already decided. Next, the most important thing in this meeting is to elect the Human Emperor!"
"The Human Emperor is elected every three years and is elected every three years. The candidates for the Human Emperor are elected from the fifteen senators. Now, fifteen senators will be invited to the stage to express their views on the position of the Human Emperor and their own ideas on the future Middle Earth. Note that your speeches may affect the next ***. Therefore, senators who have ideas about the position of the Human Emperor should be careful."
"Okay, I want to come up and talk about the Human Emperor's election. Now, please invite Mr. Lei Dong to the stage."
After Zhang Liang finished speaking, he automatically walked off the podium, and Old Master Lei Dong stood up from the stage, walked to the front desk, then walked onto the podium, glanced at everyone in the stage, smiled bitterly, and said, "I am so old that I have become a senator. You really try your best to squeeze my old bones."
"Hahaha..." A chuckle sounded from the audience, and Old Master Lei Dong also smiled and said, "I think I am a little capable of governing the country. The Human Emperor is newly established and the government is busy. Of course, I want the Human Emperor to share my worries and do some practical things for the people. But after all, I am old and have poor energy. I am still a good person to be a senator, but I can't be a human Emperor. So, when the Human Emperor is running for the election, I voluntarily give up, that's it."
Lei Dong said, hugged his fists, then walked off the podium, and Zhang Liang walked onto the stage again, saying loudly: "Before the second candidate came on stage, I will say first, the position of the Human Emperor is of great importance. Once we become the Human Emperor, our Feixian family will definitely guarantee the human Emperor's personal safety and health. For example, Old Master Lei Dong, if Old Master Lei Dong can become the Human Emperor..."
"Then, our Feixian family will give the old man a top-grade Great Return Pill. This pill can increase the life span of an ordinary person and the pure internal strength of twenty to thirty years. If taken by a warrior, the effect will be better. Therefore, no one who is running for the Emperor of the Human Emperor needs to have any concerns. Even if he dies of illness, our Feixian family can help him recover in a short time!"
Huh! Huh! Huh!
The venue, which had been very calm, suddenly started to talk in a low voice. Everyone was shocked by the magical effects of the Great Refuge Dan. There were many magic pills in the martial arts world, but I had never heard of those who dared to increase their lifespan. The Great Refuge Dan in Zhang Liang's mouth was really surprising, or everyone was surprised by the treatment of the Human Emperor.
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
Zhang Liang clapped his hands, suppressed the crowd, and then said loudly: "Now, please ask the second senator to come to the stage, Zhang Jiao, please come to the stage."
Zhang Jiao stood up from his seat, walked to the podium slowly, stroked his beard, and then said, "Zhang didn't say anything false. He is very interested in the position of the Human Emperor. Zhang also has some opinions on the way to govern the country in the next three years. In Zhang's opinion, the Human Emperor is newly established, or the country is newly established, and it is not easy to be too radical. The most important thing is to "stability". First of all, we must stabilize the people's hearts, stabilize the displaced people, and choose places to live. Spring is about to begin, and farming must not be left behind..."
… …………………
Zhang Yuan, Zhang Jin, Zhang Mu and Lu Wuji stood at the window on the ninth floor of the Fuhu Pagoda, watching the entire process of the Human Emperor election.
At this time, Lu Wuji looked puzzled and muttered: "Zhang Jiao is crazy? What are you talking nonsense? He doesn't want to be the Human Emperor?"
"It should be something that I'm referring to..." Zhang Mu said with a frown.
"Haha, don't you understand?" Zhang Jin said with a smile.
"Did you understand?" Zhang Yuan also had a puzzled expression. He didn't understand what Zhang Jiao was saying. He was rumored, as if he was saying something irrelevant, but it seemed that he was pointing something, making people confused.
"What's the difficulty? Zhang Jiao didn't say it just now. The key point is the word "stability". The so-called "stability" is actually not the people's hearts, but the hearts of everyone present. This is telling the people present that as long as Zhang Jiao becomes the Human Emperor, he will never take the initiative to attack everyone present, and their official positions will not be deliberately weakened. Of course, it can also be said that Zhang Jiao is weak and eliminates everyone's fear of him." Zhang Jin said jokingly.
At this time, Zhang Yuan, Zhang Mu and Lu Wuji looked at Zhang Jin up and down, and Zhang Jin looked at the three of them in shock and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like this?"
"Jueyuan, are you taking some elixirs that increase intelligence?" Zhang Mu asked.
"...Is there any pill to increase intelligence?" Zhang Jin rolled his eyes, then showed a smug look on his face, and said with a smile: "Since I refined the relics into a magic weapon, Buddhism has made rapid progress, and my mind has also changed. The three states of mind in Buddhism, one is: Look at the mountain is a mountain, and the water is water; the second is: Look at the mountain is not a mountain, and the water is not water; the third is..."
"Look at the mountains or the mountains, see whether the water or the water!" Zhang Mu snatched a word, and then asked, "Which realm are you in now?"
"Hahaha..." Zhang Jin laughed awkwardly, then said, "I am not at either level. Now I have just reached the threshold of the first level, but I haven't stepped in yet. But maybe I can step in a few days!"
"Tsk!" Zhang Yuan, Zhang Mu and Lu Wuji responded disdainfully, then moved their attention away from Zhang Jin and turned to the window to the podium. At this time, Zhang Jiao had already stepped down and replaced another candidate of the Emperor of Humanity to give a speech on stage.
Time passed by minute by minute, and after all the fifteen emperor candidates came on stage to give speeches, an hour had passed. It has to be said that these people in the Queen's Court are very good at speaking and will not be dissatisfied at all. They say all kinds of words at once, some are full of witty words, and some are pertinent and talk, which makes people admire and admire them.
After the last candidate of the Human Emperor finished his speech, Zhang Liang walked to the podium again and said, "Everyone, the fifteen Human Emperor candidates have all told them about their views on the Human Emperor. I think you have also decided on the candidates for the Human Emperor. So, let's start now. It's the same time as tea time. Please hurry up."
As time passed, everyone in the audience picked up their pens and wrote the names of the Human Emperor on the paper. The atmosphere at this time was depressing and nervous. After a cup of tea, when Zhang Liang, Zhu Jiukang and Lei Dong began to collect anonymous ***, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had completed a major task.
After another cup of tea, the data of *** was counted. Mr. Zhu Jiukang came to the podium and said with a serious expression: "Before announcing the election of the Human Emperor, I will say again that the Human Emperor is elected, or that most people are elected. As for that small number of people, whether you agree with the Human Emperor this time, please do not stand up and oppose it. For the stability of Middle-earth, I am unconditionally supporting the election of the Human Emperor. If anyone dares to make a defiant move, then I will take the lead first!"
The more Zhu Jiukang said, the more he saw, the last sentence was a light shout, the pronunciation of the word penetrated the entire Zushan Square, which shocked Zhu Jiukang's determination.
Chapter completed!
