Chapter 954 Great Practice

Coming outside the city lord's mansion, Beichen Yuqing looked at the people in front of him, and said loudly: "Dear friends, there is a chance, and I am waving to you. The Queen promises that this chance will allow you to regain your dignity!"

Simple words, but let everyone's eyes shine. For those who are slaves, they are more urgent than anyone else to regain their dignity!

Unlike those who were born slaves. People who are born slaves have no so-called dignity. When they are released from slavery, they will only cheer and celebrate-even many slaves will be confused.

Lan Yunhe and the others were not born to be slaves. Many of them used to be superior, but in the end due to various reasons, they gradually became slaves. The struggles, tortures, sufferings, etc. encountered in this process are not enough for outsiders. To be able to forcibly torture a high-ranking expert into a slave, the cruelty of the means is unimaginable to outsiders.

Lan Yunhe and others chose to continue to fall into the abyss, partly because they were escaping.

But avoiding does not mean that they do not desire dignity; in fact, they desire dignity more than anyone else, but they are afraid to touch it, and they don't know how to get it back.

Beichen Yuqing looked slowly, and once again Langsheng said: "But chances don't just happen. If you want chances, you need to swear to keep it secret. I believe you, but others may not. And this time, you will contact Some secrets from the Shang Dynasty."

Lan Yunhe was the first to speak, and without hesitation: "I, Lan Yunhe, would like to swear to heaven and earth with my soul, true spirit, and three lives, that everything I saw next will be kept secret. trace."

There is one leader, and there will be no more than 3,000 people left. The oath aroused the response of heaven and earth, the high-altitude evil spirits rolled, and lightning boiled, and heaven and earth seemed to admit this oath.

After everyone finished swearing, Beichen Yuqing took a look at the sky, and immediately took the lead to go to Qingyun Valley. When everyone saw that they were going to Qingyun Valley, their eyes immediately burst into light.

Although I swore without hesitation just now, it is because everyone knows that they have no retreat or choice. Don't look at Beichen Yuqing who looks easy to talk, but if anyone doesn't swear, the consequences will be hard to say. After all, Beichen Yuqing was still one of the commanders-in-chief of the Shang Dynasty, and often had to think from the perspective of the Shang Dynasty.

However, when they heard that they were going to Qingyun Valley, everyone's eyes lit up. In the Shang Dynasty, who didn't know what Qingyun Valley represented - it represented a miracle!

Arriving at the outskirts of Qingyun Valley, it was already nightfall. The front of Qingyun Valley is very vast, and there are many buildings, factories, etc. here. Beichen Yuqing led the crowd to a temporarily vacated large warehouse, where people were already busy.

When everyone entered, a barrier immediately rose around it, completely preventing outside detection.

A little bit of time passed, and it was 19 o'clock while waiting. At this time, Xia Qingqing, Xu Ren, Li Yuanming, Yan Ze'an, Yuan Yong, Ji Fangzhu, and other senior officials of the Shang Dynasty also came.

A door to the north of the warehouse slowly opened, and Li Xian walked in slowly.

A little excitement flashed in Beichen Yuqing's eyes, and she shouted: "I have seen the virtuous king."

Li Xian patted Beichen Yuqing on the shoulder: "You've worked hard, you've done a good job. You've done the things that are fertile in China, and you've done them perfectly."

Beichen Yuqing smiled: "It is my honor to contribute to this country."

Ahead, Lan Yunhe, Jiang Yong, Sima Rongyuan and others saw that it was Li Xian who appeared, and their eyes suddenly shone brightly. They didn't expect that the comatose virtuous king according to the outside world would actually meet himself and others in person.

It really is a big opportunity! No wonder they were sworn to secrecy.

Li Xian walked past Beichen Yuqing, came in front of everyone, and said slowly: "Everyone, it's a pleasure to meet you all. The matter of my waking up needs to be kept secret for the time being.

In fact, when I just woke up, Beichen Yuqing told me about you (nonsense); but at that time I just woke up, there were many things, and I didn't know how to arrange you for a while, so I didn't meet.

It wasn't until this morning that I suddenly thought of a strategy. This strategy is somewhat risky, but if it succeeds, you will become heroes of the human race.

Don't worry, I don't want you to die, but... This will be a great practice. Once this practice is successful, the future of the human race will be even more brilliant. "

After a short pause, to give everyone a time to react, Li Xiancai continued: "I've been thinking about one thing recently, is the current development of the human race wrong?

In ancient times, we did not have emperors, but we were united and got out of the predicament together.

But now, we often talk about class, rule, and the country cannot be without a king for a day, and the people have no two masters for a day, etc. It seems reasonable, but in the Shang Dynasty, things have changed a little.

For example, the Shang Dynasty had two centers. The political center, Anyang City, and the economic center, Beidou City.

There were many independent small groups in the Shang Dynasty, that is, those enterprise groups and so on; but among them, they coexisted peacefully.

The Shang Dynasty also experienced regime changes, and now the queen is in power, but the whole process was uneventful.

The Shang Dynasty also had an enclave, which was Qingcheng; the Shang Dynasty also had many armies far away from the mainland, such as the ocean-going fleet led by Beichen Yuqing.

The Shang Dynasty made many attempts, but the chaos that most people say did not occur. On the contrary, the Shang Dynasty became stronger.

The facts of all this seem to indicate something.

It wasn't until this morning that I suddenly realized - is our current development direction wrong?

Cultivation pays attention to a return to basics, so does the development of a country, or the human race, also need to pay attention to a return to basics? At least we should develop in the direction of returning to the basics.

Combining various situations, I thought of a word, that is 'democracy'. The so-called democracy means that the people and citizens actively participate in the political, economic and social development of the country.

The country still needs leaders, but leaders are not leading, but guiding. National leaders must be those who can go up and those who can't go down, even if they are emperors!

What does not change in a country is its positive and enterprising spirit.

What cannot be easily changed is the law.

Laws are more reliable than kings. The development of the Shang Dynasty has proved this point. "

"No! How can the king change so easily!" As soon as Li Xian paused, many people shouted in unison. Everyone was really taken aback by Li Xian's words——King Xian, are you out of your mind? You are killing yourself!

Li Xian raised his hand to stop everyone from speaking, without any answer, but continued: "Looking back at the history of the human race, there is no permanent emperor, and there is no permanent country. But there is one thing that is permanent, and that is the pioneering spirit of the human race.

From the beginning of the human race, we have been fighting, struggling, exploring, and making progress. Whether it is war or peace, whether it is pain or joy, we have never stopped making progress.

I once said that worrying about the world's worries first and then enjoying the world's joys, if a king can lead the development of his own country and contribute to the development of the human race, he can sit back and enjoy his position.

But if a king is not competent for his work and responsibilities, shouldn't he abdicate and make way for the virtuous? "

Everyone looked at Li Xian in shock. Whether it was the elites of the Shang Dynasty or Lan Yunhe's 3,000 people, they were all shocked and speechless, and could only express their shock by staring.

Li Xian looked up at the roof, as if he was making a choice, after a while, Li Xian sighed: "Today, I have two decisions that I want to discuss with you.

The first, is a great practice. I want to see what it would be like to have a country without a monarch, a country where people unite spontaneously.

at this point……"

Li Xian looked at Lan Yunhe, Jiang Yong, Sima Rongyuan and others, looking into their eyes. In their eyes, Li Xian saw the fire, but also saw hesitation.

Li Xian looked into their eyes and said slowly: "I want to entrust this practice to you. Because you are the most suitable candidates.

I'm imagining a world where everyone is equal, a world where there is no oppression, a world where competition is free. Maybe this world still has ups and downs, but at least everyone has an equal starting point, a free world, a world without oppression, and a relatively fair world.

The country's officials, even the leaders, are elected from among the people, they serve a term every three to five years, and they are re-elected after they take office.

Such a country faces a problem of initialization, that is, the first generation of leaders must be pure, and there must be no connections with aristocratic families or sects.

And this is your chance.

If you succeed, you will become a generation of great men, and the history of the human race will engrave you. If it fails, it is nothing more than a failure, and it will be a big deal to restart the current life. "

Lan Yunhe and other 3,000 people began to breathe rapidly. The world and prospects described by Li Xian made them full of longing. This is indeed a way to regain their self-esteem, and even if they succeed, they will become great men in the history of the human race.

But there is a point.

Lan Yunhe asked respectfully: "The virtuous king, what you said really stirred my heart. But how to start such a world? I also ask the virtuous king for advice."

Li Xian's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he slowly swept across the crowd: "There is never something for nothing in the world; but if you want to change, you must face unimaginable resistance.

History tells us that every major change is accompanied by wars, even protracted wars.

If you want to build a new world, the old world will panic. At that time, you may become enemies with the country of the entire human race. "

Li Xian paused for a moment and looked into the eyes of everyone. What I saw was determination and eagerness to try.

Li Xian nodded slightly, and smiled with satisfaction: "How do you start, it's very simple, revolution! Get rid of the mandate of heaven, get rid of the old concepts.

You need to establish a "pure land" first, and you need to have a complete and new theory. Moreover, you have to be prepared to endure hardships!

The way I think of you is:

Get up wherever you fall. You return to Fertile China. Although it is your sad place, it is also a land you are familiar with.

You were there, freeing slaves, liberating oppressed people, and bringing hope to the helpless. You, start a revolution from the bottom of society.

The war in the past was a war of nobles, a war of kings, and a war of masters. It's a top-down war. Therefore, the people can only drift with the tide; and because of this, there is the reality of "the people in the world are prosperous, and the people in the world are suffering".

But the war in the future may be a war of the common people. It is a revolution burning from the bottom. It is a revolution, not a war.

And you are the first pioneers of the revolution. "

The eyes of Lan Yunhe and the others gradually brightened, filled with yearning. They are a group of people who have fallen into the abyss, but it is also true that they most desire the light.

Li Xian took out a small book from his pocket, "These are some fragmented ideas I have sorted out. How to enrich and coherent these ideas and develop them into real ideas is your task."

After Li Xian finished speaking, he just held the notebook and stood in front of everyone, as if waiting for someone to catch it.

The atmosphere was dull for a while. Lan Yunhe, Jiang Yong, and Sima Rongyuan looked at each other, and suddenly stepped forward together, and put their right hands in front of Li Xian.

Li Xian smiled, and spread out the small book, covering the palms of the three of them. "Three, this is a great practice. It requires courage and more wisdom. At the same time, it also needs to let the people master the power of self-improvement.

Next, I am going to arrange for you to attend lectures at Xinghuo University, and the lecture time is half a year. After half a year, you will return to Fertile China. "

"Yes!" Lan Yunhe and others roared.

Only then did Li Xian turn his head to look at the elites of the Shang Dynasty. It seemed very interesting to see the shock on everyone's faces and the dumbfounded expressions on their faces.

Li Xian coughed a few times, and after attracting everyone's attention, he said slowly: "The reason why I have been hiding for a while is not only to take advantage of this assassination opportunity, but also to think about the second thing.

The Shang Dynasty also needed a practice.

I don't know if you have discovered that the social system of centralized monarchy is very unfavorable to the development of industry and commerce. Although the Shang Dynasty has revised laws and policies many times to ensure the interests and opportunities of merchants and common people, the whole society is still not open enough.

The system of centralized monarchy and capitalism have some inherent and difficult to reconcile contradictions.

Therefore, I am going to adopt..."

Speaking of this, Li Xian paused for a while, his eyes slowly swept across the faces of the people, and what he saw were expectations, curiosity, surprise, hope and other lights.

Li Xian smiled slightly: "I am going to adopt a constitutional monarchy. I know, everyone is very unfamiliar with this term.

The so-called constitutional monarchy, simply put, is that I represent the country, come forward to formulate the constitution, and then manage the country by law. I myself, that is, the monarch himself, retreated into the background and no longer interfered in the politics of the country.

As for national politics, it is left to the "Prime Minister". Prime Minister is also a new word. But I believe everyone understands.

The prime minister is a temporary, acting king. However, the Prime Minister of the Shang Dynasty was elected every five years. Unless there were special circumstances, he could only serve two consecutive terms and ten years at most. The royal family, relatives of the royal family, do not participate in elections.

The Prime Minister will also be elected. Regardless of men and women, those who can go up, those who can't go down. At the same time, the position of prime minister is retained. Once the prime minister changes, the prime minister must support it as soon as possible, so as not to cause chaos in the country.

The prime minister and prime minister are all elected.

Those who participated in the prime minister's campaign included successful businessmen, outstanding officials, and even generals and commanders-in-chief.

Of course, once the election is successful, you must abandon everything in the past and devote all your energy to the development of the country.

For the time being, only the prime minister and the prime minister will run for election, and the rest will temporarily follow the old system. Slowly let go of your steps later. "

After Li Xian's words fell, the elites of the Shang Dynasty immediately opened their eyes; everyone glanced at each other, and they all saw the surprise and joy in their eyes.

As far as the current Shang Dynasty is concerned, if a constitutional monarchy is really adopted, then all the elites of the Shang Dynasty will have the opportunity to become prime ministers. Among other things, Xu Ren and Yan Ze'an are most likely, followed by Li Yuanming, Yuan Yong, Fang Shijing and others. Zhu Chongde, Fu Minghui, Wu Bugu, Song Xing and others also have hopes and opportunities.

There was silence at the scene, and everyone seemed unable to digest and assimilate today's thoughts, and did not know how to express their thoughts for a while.

Li Xian seemed to understand what everyone was thinking, so he walked around and smiled again: "Everyone, the Shang Dynasty opened up the wisdom of the people in ten years. And no one wants someone above their head to block the sun.

With the enlightenment of people's wisdom, the traditional form of state governance will eventually decline. In this world, nothing stays the same.

Instead of waiting for future changes, we should take the initiative to lead the changes and be at the forefront of the times.

Let's go back and discuss it. After tomorrow morning, we will meet in the online meeting room to continue the discussion.

This matter... Song Xing, you start to arrange and guide public opinion. Don't rush, start slowly. "
