The people who have fled here respect the country as much as they respect their ancestors. But they loath, hate, and fear their current top leadership.

And the Elite Supreme Ruler wants the people to believe that God has established a king because the people need to form a community, a political community that will satisfy the people's strongest and innermost passions—glory and immortality. The people and the king support each other and derive benefits from the community. The king needs the protection and support of his people, and it is the king who is commanded by heaven, and this is his covenant oath with the heavens. If the king's people betray his oath, the people will no longer be protected by heaven, but will be destroyed by heaven. When the people appealed to heaven, they appealed to the king. The king of the Elite is in need of his authority, as the dominant class gradually takes the dominant class into its own hands, and nothing else. At the same time, Mei Lingfeng sees himself as the supreme ruler of the country, believing that although the bees are small, they should have everything. He then appointed a newly promoted Confucian scholar named Bo Zitong to compile the Magna Carta of the Exquisite Kingdom.

The specific content of the Magna Carta is the specific setting and limitation of the power of the bureaucracy at all levels below the king, and the core content of these constitutions is governed by simple customs. Therefore, the fragmented provisions of this constitutional document are destined to be fragmentary, and may even look chaotic, not like the Constitution, and sometimes even anti-Constitutional. In fact, it is a directory of aristocratic privileges at the expense of the interests of the state. In other words, the Magna Carta, from the text of the Elite, does not have the principle of justice and fairness that the Constitution should have, but rather a shameful bargain between the nobility and the crown to reach a mutual understanding for stealing the interests of the state. It has made the legislative power seriously oligarchic – "it has lost touch with the national conditions and public opinion".

Thus, the satisfaction of this passion usually means extreme inequality.

Such a class change means the rise of some nobles and the bankruptcy of some forces. This was a change in the social system, from a republic to a feudal system, and the changes in this period included the awakening of class consciousness, the rise of the elite aristocracy, and the revival of the new propertied people. The form of human political organization is limited by the supply of resources. From centralization to democracy, or from democracy to centralization, it is all achieved under the conditions of existing resources, but human greed and bullying are especially shameless and despicable in the period of resource redistribution. Therefore, no matter what the system, it is to satisfy the individual interests of the class as much as possible under the conditions of existing resources. Because the construction of human organizations requires the cost of trust, in the state of mutual distrust, institutional constraints are needed to save the cost of trust. In the operation of the system, if the resources are limited and the interests of each individual cannot be satisfied, the cost of trust will gradually increase, the efficiency of the system will gradually collapse, and the system will collapse.

Reflecting on the history of mankind, human nature is always greedy, and often one bite cannot grow wiser.

The entire elite society struggles to move forward in a contradictory trajectory. As Chun Yuyi said, this is a historical regression and a disaster for civilization.

The day after the Beigong encirclement and suppression army was defeated, Mei Lingfeng, the king of Jingjue, forcibly conscripted more than half of the soldiers and civilians in the country (including prisoners in the city, a total of more than 48,000) in the name of natural royal power, and built a large number of buildings in the inner court of the palace. Imitate the internal system to add a three-way palace, and build long streets on both sides. There is a corridor on the left and right of each hall, and there is a pool stone bridge behind the hall. The garden is full of pines and cypresses and strange flowers and trees in Kunlun Mountain. The main hall of the inner court is called Shengde, and the left and right are the two halls of Chongren and Guangyi. The exquisite stone bridge behind the main hall is to dismantle the nine-eyed stone arch bridge that hole in the north direction of the swan lake, take back the stone and repair, there are archway names rainbow and flying glow in the north and south of the bridge. There are pavilions on the left and right, famous clothes, and sideburns. Then there is the stone mountain named Longyan, and there is the round hall named Qianqing on the mountain. After that, there is the Changming Palace, and the palace gate is a beautiful woman. After that, it is still a round hall, surrounded by a canal called the silk yarn. There are also Jiaqing Pavilion and Chengguang Pavilion. Finally, there is the Hongqing Palace, which is the place for the Buddha (i.e. Lama). The palaces, pavilions, pavilions, and stone bridges that were added and repaired in the inner court are extremely gorgeous.

A few days later, after the completion of the Inner Court Palace, all the civil officials and generals of the Jingjue Kingdom came to congratulate the completion of the Inner Court Palace.

Mei Lingfeng, the king of the Absolute Elite, sat on the high throne and looked at these ministers who came to congratulate: "Zhong Aiqing is flat. What do you have any proposals for today?"

At this time, the Confucian scholar named Bo Zitong came out from among the generals, walked to the middle of the Zhengda Guangming Palace, bowed to the King of Jingjue, and said: "Your Majesty, there are many households in our country today, and there are no etiquette for the monarchs and ministers, so the lower officials suggested that a set of etiquette should be formulated among the hundred officials, which should be followed by the hundred officials first, and gradually promoted to the people. "Bo Zitong was a Confucian scholar who was well versed in the Confucian classics of the East.

"And who's going to make it?"

"The minister is willing to take his students to plan a set of etiquette plans for the king. ”

"Etiquette isn't that complicated, is it? Look at me, oh no...... This king ...... "Mei Lingfeng, the king of the essence, was originally a vulgar old deer demon in the deep mountains of Da Nanzhou, and he did not understand the classic etiquette of Confucianism.

Etiquette is a norm, procedure and ritual for kings and ministers, and the essence of etiquette is human nature, and etiquette can be complicated or simplified. We only need to comprehensively innovate the etiquette of the past dynasties, which is suitable for the people of the city. ”

"Okay, you guys get something workable and try it out. ”

"No!" replied Bozitong.

Then he took the students to formulate a set of Confucian etiquette, practiced for a few days, and then invited Mei Lingfeng to come and watch. Mei Lingfeng looked quite simple at first glance, and his heart was happy, so the etiquette was formulated.

On this day, the side concubine of the exquisite king Mei Lingfeng Xinna celebrated her eighteenth birthday, and the civil and military generals gathered in Changle Palace. Mei Lingfeng instructed all the generals to congratulate them in accordance with the etiquette of the hundred officials. All the officials stood outside the court.

First of all, the master of ceremonies shouted, "Tend", that is, running fast in small steps, and all the officials took wat and walked briskly into the main hall.

Then, the master of ceremonies shouted again, "column", that is, a row of military generals and a row of civil officials, column. At this time, the Absolute King sat on the throne and was slowly pushed in by the court attendants and sat in the throne.

The master of ceremonies shouted again, "Kneel", and everyone knelt down.

The master of ceremonies shouted again, "Worship", and all the generals knelt on the ground.

At this time, the palace attendants poured wine up, and each of them held a jue of wine in his hand.

The master of ceremonies shouted, "Shou", Shou is the meaning of congratulations, that is, the "Shou" of life.

The first column was brought out by the highest-ranking bureaucrats, namely Fanxiang and Chun Yuyi, who took the wine and knelt down. The master of ceremonies shouted, "Shou", Fanxiang and Chun Yuyi shouted: "Long live my king, long live, long live." The master of ceremonies shouted again, "Drink", and Fanxiang and Chun Yuyi drank the wine in their hands. The master of ceremonies shouted again, "Retreat", and Fanxiang and Chun Yuyi slowly retreated.

Then, the civil officials came out of the ranks, and the civil officials came out again, and then knelt, bowed again, lived again, and retired again. In the end, the generals came out of the ranks, and they obeyed it as they were, neatly and neatly.

When Mei Lingfeng saw it, she was very happy, and thought: "This is what it means to be a king, it turns out to be so enjoyable, I know the nobility of the king today." I didn't know before, I didn't know what it was like to be a king, so I laughed and said: "Everyone, Aiqing, in the future, we will be like this, and we will divide the monarch and the ministers." Looking at the civil officials and generals standing on the top of the main hall, they were quite complacent, and paused, "Everyone, Aiqing, who else has something to play to this king?"

Chun Yuyi held a booklet in his hand, took a step forward, bowed to the exquisite king Mei Lingfeng, and said, "Enlighten the king, the minister has something to play." Chun Yuyi has been promoted to the position of prime minister of the exquisite country at this time.

"Chun Yu Aiqing, then you play. Mei Lingfeng said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have recently made a book of laws to be implemented in the kingdom. ”

"Submit it!" A palace attendant beside him walked over quickly, took the booklet in Chun Yuyi's hand, walked quickly to Mei Lingfeng on the throne, and offered it with both hands.

"The Law of the Throne?" Mei Lingfeng stretched out his hand to take it, flipped through the booklet casually, and muttered to himself.

"This is the 'law of the throne' compiled by the ministers for the king after careful consideration, in order to determine the authority and authority of the king, and it is a law that regulates the king's behavior by studying and solving problems from the specific and dynamic details of the king's power operation. Just like medical science, the heart is healthy, and minor illnesses are self-healing. ”

"Really?...... You continue. Mei Lingfeng, the king of refinement, looked at the booklet in his hand, and the more he looked at it, the thicker the yin owl on his face became.

"Your Majesty, the ministers thought that we could make some loose laws to define a moral order in these terms, so that the people could recuperate and recuperate, and increase the material reserves of the country, so that we needed a law to limit the royal power, stop the abuse of royal power, and develop and strengthen the freedom of the elite people, so as to protect the basic rights of the subjects, not to arbitrarily control the personal liberty of the subjects, and not to arbitrarily impose taxes on the subjects. ”

"Well, you go on. Mei Lingfeng sat on the high throne, half-squinted, and quietly looked at Chun Yuyi, who was talking eloquently.

"When we make laws, we have to focus on reality and formulate corresponding policies according to the actual situation, 'The life of law lies in experience, not logic. 'In a moral order, there are differences of opinion among the people. We need to establish a hierarchy of moral order from top to bottom, so that the entire population becomes the guardians of the constitution, so that the elite constitutionalism has great moral and educational power. ”

"Very well, you continue. ”

"We need to base the freedoms and rights of all citizens on laws made in the name of national sovereignty, because, 'it is not the state that makes the constitution, but the constitution that creates the state'. If there is no restriction on the royal power, then the so-called 'people' does not exist, and the civil power is loose and even fragmented, and when there is a foreign enemy, our country will become powerless to organize the people to resist. ......”

"Yes, this king was the first to come here, and after he came, there were only people here, and before this king came, there were no people here. The existence of this 'nation' is simply fictional. I am the best king, and the moral authority and authority of the king is naturally higher than that of all subjects, just as the moral authority and authority of parents are higher than their children...... This king does not need the 'law of the throne'. Mei Lingfeng had a cold face, looked at Chun Yuyi, and threw the booklet towards the main hall.

"Your Majesty, today's exquisite country, the republic is the trend of the times, the desire of the people, and the essence is the country of great harmony. To be a king who is not bound by the law in a republican country is not in itself popular with the people, which is not in line with the principles of republic and democracy, our national spirit is equality, freedom, democracy and justice, totalitarian monarchy and Datong republic are incompatible, and our country should not become a feudal imperial state with excessive concentration of power and arbitrariness. ......”

"What nonsense! This king thinks that you have been here with this king for a long time, and you will not be punished for your crimes, so you should step down. Mei Lingfeng said coldly.
