Li Xiao understood, this was what was agreed upon.

I am afraid!

Even Li Hao and Sun Yuanhua knew about this!

The only one who doesn't know is probably himself.

If I nod and agree today, I guess there will be no problem in carrying out the enthronement ceremony immediately upon returning to Beijing.

Li Xiao understood that the entire bureaucracy needed an emperor.

Over the past few thousand years, the concept that a country needs an emperor has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

There are many years when there are several emperors at the same time, but there is really no time when there is no emperor for more than 20 years.

There has been no emperor for more than 20 years. Although everyone is living well, but...!

But it just lacks a sense of belonging, or security.

Li Xiao is in a bit of a dilemma!

This is another form of forced marriage, forcing oneself to enter the palace and become the emperor.

But Li Xiao doesn't want to be the emperor, at least not now.

The reason is simple!

As a supreme power, the emperor can control the life and death of the people in the country.

This kind of right is really too great!

It is so great that it cannot be increased, and it is precisely because this power is so boundless that the whole world is not the king's land, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers.

The country does not belong to the Chinese nation, it only belongs to the emperor himself.

The so-called family, country, and world, and the unity of family and country refer to the royal family.

Li Xiao knew that there was no market for Mingzhu these days, but...! The lack of national identity brought about by this kind of imperial rule would lead to huge problems.

Just like the Eight-Nation Allied Forces attacking the capital, as long as they spend a little money, people will provide them with logistical supplies.

As long as you spend a little money, you can learn about the garrison situation of the government and troops from the people.

You only need to spend a little money to hire local people to lead the way.

Bypassing the strong defenses of the capital city, we entered the inner city through the Chongwen sewer.

Even for a little more money, the people provided them with ladders and held them up to allow the foreigners to climb the city.

He even helped the foreigners and kept an eye on the movements of the army.

For these people, they don't know what patriotism is.

They also don’t understand what national suffering is.

They only know that the emperor is fighting with the foreigners now. At this time, if you can make some money, you can make some money.

The emperor and I are at war with foreigners. What does it have to do with me?

They don't even know what genocide means.

From officials to ordinary people, everything is the same idea.

The country belongs to the emperor, and I am just an obedient citizen. Whoever comes here, should I pay the imperial grain national tax or the imperial grain national tax?

Who can I hand it over to?

During the Han Dynasty, everyone was handed over to the emperor named Liu.

During the Tang Dynasty, everyone was handed over to the emperor named Li.

In the Song Dynasty, everyone was handed over to the emperor of the Zhao family.

Now is the Ming Dynasty, and it has been more than 200 years since everyone paid imperial grain and national taxes to the Zhu family emperor.

To everyone, everyone is a tenant. The emperor is the biggest landlord!

As long as you want to farm the land owned by the landlord, you have to pay rent to the landlord.

And the officials were just the emperor's stewards.

When everyone thinks so, it is naturally none of my business if the emperor fights with others.

That's why so many strange things happened in modern history.

During the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894, food to support the front line could not be transported by water from Shandong. Instead, it could only be transported by land from Liaodong to North Korea!

The reason was that the Shandong governor had a bad relationship with Li Hongzhang, and there were various delays, both overt and covert.

The country belongs to the emperor, and he is just a wage earner.

The country is ruined, and I am still just a wage earner.

Whether the country is good or not has nothing to do with me. Let’s take revenge first.

It was not until the great catastrophe of the Chinese nation and the war of aggression against China that people had the concept of a nation.

This is why everyone wants to call for genocide and genocide.

This is why, after the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, 10,000 Chinese people died every day. They had to persist for eight years to drive away the Japs.

Now, I have only achieved the first step.

Let everyone get used to not having an emperor, and let children firmly establish the concept of the nation through education.

Even if a foreign enemy invades one day in the future, the descendants of the Chinese nation will be able to unite and resist any disaster.

Instead of just serving mermaid meat on a plate like in the late Qing Dynasty!

If the Chinese nation wants to maintain prosperity and survive for a long time, this national concept must be established.

The emperor is the natural enemy of this national concept.

Because the world belongs to the emperor.

No one will fight for other people's things.

Li Xiao didn't want to be the emperor, he just wanted to tell everyone.

This country belongs to no one but all descendants of China.

It is absolutely impossible for outsiders to take advantage of our family.

Originally, Li Xiao wanted to slowly implement this concept in the school, but he didn't expect it.

Today, with the tacit approval of almost everyone, Jingjiang King Zhu Yilong stepped forward.

He stood up as an orthodox descendant of the Zhu family and implored Li Xiao to ascend the throne and become emperor.

If anyone else said it, Li Xiao was definitely labeled as a rebellious official and a traitor.

No matter when the history books are written, such people can only be despised and despised again and again.

But now that it is said by the descendants of the Zhu family's royal family, this is another form of abdication.

Scholar-officials are still happy to see this situation of abdication.

For them, this is a moral state that allows a person to legally be called an emperor.

"Your Majesty, do you want me to ascend the throne and proclaim myself emperor?"

"Exactly!"

"Your Majesty! There is something I, Li Xiao, have been holding back in my heart for a long time, but I have never said it clearly.

This world is not for one person.

But my world belongs to thousands of Chinese Miao descendants!

The Ming Dynasty is not the Ming Dynasty of one person.

It is my Ming Dynasty that belongs to millions of Ming Dynasty people!

When one person becomes emperor, all the people follow him.

Wouldn’t that world become the world of one person instead of the world of all the Chinese people?

When you hear these words, you may find it difficult to accept them in your heart.

This is also different from what your teachers taught you since childhood.

But this is the truest truth in the world!

The Ming Dynasty belongs to the Chinese nation, not to any one individual.

I know that today, in this team, there are some people who have their own little calculations, just for their own personal titles.

Put away your petty thoughts, what we are doing today is fighting for the lives of our Chinese descendants. We are fighting for more living space and more living materials.

Everything I do today is to make future generations live better.
