Chapter 705: The Mandate of Heaven Belongs to King Mu
Mu Qianmei's loud question aroused the pride in the hearts of the people, and everyone replied in unison:
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Liansheng's answer completely released the long-suppressed emotions in his heart.
At the beginning, when they heard Mu Qianmei's denial that she was from the divine realm, everyone was still a little disappointed in their hearts, but after Mu Qianmei's passionate speech, everyone's hearts aroused stronger heroism.
Yes, everyone is an ordinary mortal, why dare to be oppressed by others and can't resist?
Mu Qianmei is also a mortal, and she is only fifteen years old, she can dare to resist the injustice of fate, why can't she!
Hearing everyone's answers, Mu Qianmei felt that the pride in everyone's hearts had been mobilized by her, so after a pause, she continued:
"Of course, resistance does not mean that we should fight with their army with our bare hands, that kind of resistance is to hit a stone with an egg, which is no different from sending them to death, that kind of sacrifice is meaningless, to resist, we must also have a strategy of resistance, different people, suitable for doing different things, only a clear and reasonable division of labor, we can play the strongest combat effectiveness."
"Next, our Cuiyun City and the imperial court of Yulan City will unite to jointly deploy the next step of the resistance strategy, more precisely, it should be called the national defense war, if we want not to be slaves of the country, we must unite as one, resist together, unity is strength, only by uniting more people, let everyone think in one place, work hard in one place, and twist all the strength into a rope, we can find a glimmer of life in a desperate situation."
"I hope that everyone must show a determination, in the face of aggression and oppression, we must resolutely fight to the end, and would rather be a ghost who died in war than a slave to the country, can you do it?"
In the last sentence, Mu Qianmei said sonorously and forcefully, deafeningly, and everyone immediately shouted loudly:
"I'd rather be a ghost who died in battle than a slave who died in the country!"
"I'd rather be a ghost who died in battle than a slave who died in the country!"
"I'd rather be a ghost who died in battle than a slave who died in the country!"
……
Seeing that everyone's faces were full of excited expressions, Mu Qianmei could feel that they were really awake, and they all realized that it was time to resist, if the enemy was in front of them, as long as Mu Qianmei gave an order, even if they went to the soup, Mu Qianmei also showed a relieved expression.
So, when everyone's shouting stopped, Mu Qianmei made a final concluding remark and said:
"I have seen your determination, and I hope that when the country is in need, you can all stand up enthusiastically, respond to the call of the country, and work together to drive the invaders out of our country and return us to a peaceful world."
"Okay, that's all for today, let's go away first, arrange the affairs of the family, and wait for the call of the country!"
After finishing speaking, Mu Qianmei bowed slightly to the people again, and everyone immediately responded with warm applause to see off Mu Qianmei's departure.
Mu Qianmei immediately turned around and said to Yao Mengchen:
"It seems that we don't have to look at the lives of the homeless
It's not too early to live, and we're ready to go to the City Lord's Mansion to see what the final outcome of their deliberations will be. ”
Yao Mengchen groaned for a while, and then said:
"I'll come with you!"
As he spoke, he turned his head and explained a few words to Lan Xin, and then followed Mu Qianmei and Liu Tingfeng to take a carriage together and go to the City Lord's Mansion in Yulan City.
At this time, it was already sunset, and in the evening sunset, a carriage quickly came to the City Lord's Mansion, and the three of them got off the carriage and hurriedly walked into the City Lord's Mansion, they were all celebrities in Magnolia City, and the guards of the City Lord's Mansion naturally did not block it, but quickly informed the City Lord Liang Xinghe.
followed Liang Xinghe to greet them, as well as Zhou Yunxi and Lu Zimo, everyone casually exchanged a few words, and walked quickly into the city lord's office in the city lord's mansion.
Liang Xinghe beckoned everyone to sit down, and ordered to make a cup of tea for a few people, and after a few people took a sip of tea, Yao Mengchen first asked:
"I wonder what the outcome of today's court meeting will be?"
Liang Xinghe and Zhou Yunxi both subconsciously looked at Lu Zimo, as the temporary leader of the current imperial court, he naturally has the most right to speak.
Lu Zimo thought for a moment before he said slowly:
"The result is not good or bad, in fact, it is also the result that everyone expected."
"Some people left quietly, some people supported, some people opposed, I agreed to withdraw the troops first, but I asked the city lord of Mu to preside over the overall situation, many people were deeply surprised by this, I have served in the imperial court for many years, I can be regarded as relying on the old and selling the old, and there is a little thin face, no matter what you think in your heart, at least on the surface, you are supportive."
"However, as soon as I heard that I was going to let City Lord Mu preside over the overall situation, many old people objected to this, no matter what I introduced, everyone still felt that Miss Mu's age was too young and her qualifications were too shallow to take on this important responsibility, and four of the eight old ministers took the opportunity to leave at that time."
"The civil and military generals of the imperial court are probably gone again, and now only two percent of the original total number are left, and most of them are young officials, because many young officials are full of admiration for Miss Mu and are willing to accept Miss Mu's leadership, and a small number of old people, like me, all think that the ambition is not in the old age, the so-called master is the teacher, and even the emperor Xiao Xiang is willing to assist the people, and they are not mediocre people, so they are full of expectations for Miss Mu."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Mu Qianmei and wanted to hear what she thought.
Mu Qianmei cleared her throat before she said unhurriedly:
"Actually, Prime Minister Lu and Dean Zhou are more suitable for this big task than me, I can assist your leaders on the side, that is the best choice!"
Lu Zimo shook his head and replied:
"On the way to the court, Mr. Zhou and I also made a simple exchange on this issue, Mr. Zhou is a literary master, good at compilation and composition, and I have been a courtier all my life, and I am only good at assisting the emperor to manage the government, and I have no courage to lead the group, if a new court is to be formed, there will be more Jianghu forces involved, and the free Mu city lord will have the wisdom and courage to support the overall situation."
"At noon today, I listened to Mu Cheng
After the lord's words, Lao Chen felt that the vision and pattern of the city lord of Mu were far inferior to us, so we decided that it was the best choice for the city lord of Mu to preside over the overall situation. ”
Zhou Yunxi didn't speak, because he was already Mu Qianmei's right-hand man now, and he had already expressed his meaning with his actions.
Liang Xinghe was also deeply surprised by Lu Zimo's proposal in the imperial court, because no matter how talented Mu Qianmei was, she was only a fifteen-year-old girl, and she was able to win the championship of the two big competitions of the Empty Valley Youlan Billboard and the Outer Heaven Lingyun List, which can only show that she has extremely high talent and talent among her peers.
However, if you look at it in the whole world, Mu Qianmei's writing is really good, but her cultivation is really nothing.
The cultivation of the Yuan Infant Period is indeed rare among peers, but it is not unprecedented, and looking at the entire rivers and lakes and temples, there are countless masters in the Yuan Infant Period.
For example, in a big gang like the Qingyun Sect, there are thousands of masters who have cultivated above the Yuan Infant Stage casually, which is not unusual at all.
Therefore, he actually opposed Lu Zimo's suggestion in his heart, but even Lu Zimo and Zhou Yunxi were willing to become his subordinates, and his Liang Xinghe's qualifications were even shallower, so he did not clearly raise objections, which can be regarded as the type of oral dissatisfaction.
Therefore, for Lu Zimo's words, he remained silent, neither supporting nor opposing.
But Yao Mengchen said:
"What Prime Minister Lu said is very true, today outside the Youlan Palace, Jinkou directly said that the crazy Taoist people clearly said that Qianmei is the person who belongs to the destiny of heaven, and she has great luck, and only she can save today's Xiyu Country, therefore, this afternoon, 100,000 people gathered in the square outside the Youlan Palace, and they all knelt down and worshiped Mu Qianmei, shouting that Qianmei is a goddess."
"After listening to Qianmei's analysis of the situation in Xiyu Country and her speech to the people in the afternoon, I also very much agree that Qianmei can preside over the overall situation and lead the people to drive the invaders out of our land."
Mu Qianmei immediately shook her head, and was about to refuse again, when Zhou Yunxi finally spoke:
"The city lord of Mu does not have to shirk, because presiding over the overall situation is not only an honor, but more importantly, a responsibility, since even the people are willing to bow down, it can be seen that it is also the will of the people, counting, this is also an order in danger, even the spirit of the void said that this is the will of heaven, why not the city lord of Mu conforms to the will of heaven and takes on this heavy responsibility?"
The words are full of sincerity.
Mu Qianmei pondered for a moment before finally nodding slowly and said:
"Since the two seniors are so promoted, then even if I catch the ducks on the shelves and accept this burden head-on, however, I am only temporarily serving, and when there is a more suitable person appears, I will continue to live my free life and develop my Tingxue Building and Tingxue Academy."
Lu Zimo thought for a while before continuing:
"It's good that City Lord Mu agrees, the current Xiyu Country needs a person who is popular with the people to lead, as for the future, then let it be!"
"Since even Lingxu Zhenren said that the Lord of Mu City is the sky
Destiny, that is, to comply with the will of heaven, after we unite, we will crown the city lord as the king of heaven! ”
After Zhou Yunxi pondered for a while, he also nodded slightly, and said in agreement:
"That's right, in addition to the remnants of Cuiyun City and the imperial court, many gangs on the rivers and lakes will also join our team under the persuasion of Abbot Puhui and Tongxuan Daoist, and City Lord Mu needs an official identity to give orders, and the Heavenly King is the best identity."
Lu Zimo immediately said:
"Okay, even if this matter is settled, let's make a little preparation, and in three days, we will hold a grand and formal ceremony for King Mu Tianwang to be crowned, and announce it to the world."
