Chapter 53 Overseas Chinese
After shooting and killing the five elders of Guigu, annihilated Tufan, Turkic coalition, and shocking the Queen Wu Zhao, a series of major tasks were completed. Zhou Ming led 20,000 Tian family musketeers and stayed in Yinzhou to wait. After receiving the news of victory, he had not yet reacted to the 20,000 troops, a total of more than 40,000 people. After explaining the situation slightly, the vast army drove east again and headed for Qingzhou.
Seeing that Zhou Ming suddenly appeared in his hand, an elite army equipped with magical weapons and weapons. Some literati and famous people were very excited and asked very puzzled: "Brother Zihua held such a heavenly weapon in his hand, why not sweep the Shenzhou in one fell swoop, take over the magical weapon, and eliminate the demon queen Wu Mei?"
Several famous scholars wrote several brilliant "Edicts against Wu" and named Zhou Ming the "General of the Shenzhou" to attack Wu Zhao, who had already tampered with the title of Great Zhou Kingdom and tampered with the "Da Tang Dynasty". They believed that with the 20,000 heavenly soldiers in Zhou Ming's hands, this pseudo-Tang Dynasty would be destroyed in only three months.
There were also several famous scholars who were good at observing each other's qi. They said in public that they saw a true dragon aura on Zhou Ming's head, saying that he had the "nine heavenly true dragon's destiny". They should adapt to the times and the people's hearts, so that these famous scholars could also be granted titles to be ministers and ministers, and be the heroes of the dragon...
Zhou Ming ignored all the words of instigation. So what if he just sat on the throne, then he established a new dynasty? It was just another three hundred years of dynasty. He could not break out of the dynasty cycle. Even if he became an emperor, he would only bring risks of extermination to his descendants.
Only by leaving behind an undefeated foundation for thousands of years is the direction he is worth his efforts.
"This... does not have a foundation for thousands of years? Even the Xia Dynasty, which had the longest reign of the country, only lasted for eight hundred years, thousands of years... it is impossible, absolutely impossible!"
One person flatly denied it, thinking that Mr. Zihua's idea was too unreliable, and he was simply joking and talking in his sleep.
"How is it impossible? Come and listen to my idea, and you will know that it is impossible..."
Zhou Ming gathered the hundreds of famous and talented celebrities together and put forward his ideas of "constitutional monarchy", "equality and democracy", "separation of powers", "parliamentary rule", "parliamentary elections", "term system, building a society ruled by law", and other ideas, these celebrities were stunned and couldn't sleep all night, thinking about the feasibility of these systems.
During the in-depth discussion, some people pointed out several core issues, such as "Is the monarch willing to hand over most of the rights? Be a 'virtual monarch' with more symbolic meaning than actual meaning?", "How to form parties? How to vote for the parliament? How to operate the parliament?", and "How to ensure that supervision is in place, fully implement the rule of law, and ensure that everyone is equal before the law, and that the prince violates the law and is really guilty of the common people" and other questions, Zhou Ming gave detailed answers one by one.
In addition, in order to give these literati a more comprehensive and clear understanding of the so-called constitutional monarchy, Zhou Ming also asked someone to distribute a book he wrote, "On Constitutional Monarchy" with more than 500,000 words, to these scholars. For a period of time, almost everyone was reading this book, discussing it day and night, and finally came to a conclusion:
Unless such an enlightened monarch appears, he can abandon some insurmountable power desires and selfish desires in human nature, and smoothly implement this constitutional monarchy system for fifty years and form an unbreakable political system, and then it is possible to break the cyclical law of the rise and fall of the dynasty and establish the so-called "thousands of years" of undefeated foundation.
Therefore, there are two necessary prerequisites, which are placed there brightly:
The first premise is that such an enlightened monarch appears; second, there must be a field of testing to test this system.
If neither premise is met, everything is just a false guess...
At this time, Zhou Ming took out a map in front of these scholars and exploded his trump card that he had hidden for a long time. Looking at this map, he said that his Haiping Tian family had led dozens of families in Qingzhou. He spent twenty years to open up hundreds of islands in the Penglai Immortal Realm. It now occupies more than one million square kilometers of land and has a population of more than five million. He is preparing to establish an overseas joint country. He is exploring what kind of system to use to govern this new type of country...
When the literati in the tent heard this revelation, all the literati stared wide, as if it was the first time he met him, and they all felt that he was extremely unfamiliar.
Some people were speechless for a long time, but their expressions became extremely excited; some people smiled bitterly and pointed at Zhou Ming and cursed: "Brother Zihua, we have worked so hard to hide from it!"
Later, all the literati in the account were trembling, using their intelligence, giving suggestions, and brainstorming. During the 78-day march back to Qingzhou, they put forward tens of thousands of suggestions for the establishment of a constitutional monarchy... These 78 days were called "Constitutional 78 Days" in later documentary films. Historians highly praised: Although these 78 days were short, the institutional progress brought to human civilization exceeded 7,800 years.
...
Two years later, June 7.
Penglai Immortal Realm, Central Island.
In the south of a medium-sized island with an area of 100,000 square kilometers, in a moon-shaped bay, a city with a white building with a large dome under a height of five years. Looking down from a high altitude, in a city with a number of giant domes. On this day, under the witness of 66 families and 100,000 citizens of the capital, His Majesty Wen, who had just turned 40, had a crown on his head and a constitution in his hand. With the sound of flower rain and trembling cheers along the way, he walked to the rostrum in front of the steps of the Parliament Building and announced a major event that will be recorded in history:
"Today, our country of culture that is united overseas has been officially established!"
"The purpose of the establishment of an overseas country is to establish a prosperous era where everyone is equal and free! A constitutional monarchy, rule the country according to law, everyone abides by laws, and everyone is civilized and polite... Work together to make this overseas country a virtuous country, a country of great harmony, a country that everyone yearns for and will last forever!"
"I Tian Zihua hereby swears: I am willing to take the lead in abiding by the various laws and regulations of Wenguo, and never do anything to favoritism and abuse the law; I am willing to make a lifelong intellectual contribution to protect the peace and well-being of the people of Wenguo; I will lead the five million subjects of Wenguo to work hard and continue to explore, and erect the sixty-six national flags of Wenguo, spread the endless islands to control the endless wilderness! Zihua is willing to work together with the people of Wenguo, love their family and country, and make contributions, and everyone will not forget their original aspirations, so that Wenguo will be better and make Wenguo live forever!"
"Ida Zihua, I would like to encourage you all!"
Slut a sex!
There was a warm applause like a rainstorm in the audience, which lasted for a long time.
...
On the other side, Wu Zhao, who sat on the throne and changed the country's name to "Tang", has also paid close attention to the latest trends of overseas Chinese in recent years, worried and always guarded; on the other hand, after sweeping all rebellions in the country, Wu Zhao also began to display her political ambitions and did some practical things.
For example, she appointed talented people from poor families, rewarded farmers and sericultures, reformed the administration of officials, established a reporting system, set up reporting boxes nationwide, and eliminated a large number of corrupt officials... All kinds of measures have established a good reputation in the hearts of the people at the bottom.
Even so, in recent years, there have been constant riots and rebellions in the Tang Dynasty. There are still countless families who disobey her, saying that she is against the will of heaven and disorder, and reverses Yin and Yang! The hen is in a state of heaven, and the law of heaven is not tolerated! Then she connects behind her back, prepares soldiers and plots to rebel, but they are all seen through by Wu Zhao's intelligence power, and then the soldiers are overwhelmed and the family is destroyed!
Wu Zhao, who is not ruthless to the aristocratic families, has not only killed the Li Zhou royal family in recent years, but also destroyed the three families of Zhao County, the Lu family of Fanyang, and the Li family of Longxi. Among the six surnames and eight families, there is a thousand-year-old family with a seat. Every time he raises a butcher's knife, tens of thousands of heads fall down. Those small and medium-sized families are even more slaughtered by Wu Zhao.
Seeing these extremely tragic scenes, some family patriarchs in the overseas language country persuaded Zhou Ming to intervene, saying that Wu Zhao could no longer be allowed to slaughter the aristocratic family, and that they must send troops to stop her!
Zhou Ming shook his head and refused to send troops to rescue him because these aristocratic families were actually not good people. The most powerful thing in annexing the land and squeezing the lower class people was them. It would be better if Wu Zhao killed them completely, which was equivalent to cleaning up the cancer cells in the country's body, eased class conflicts, and the poor people at the bottom were the ones who benefited the most.
However, when Wu Zhao pointed the butcher knife at the Guangling Tian family in the name of "suspected of participating in the Xu Jingye rebellion and secretly sponsoring the rebels", Zhou Ming could not sit still and personally led a landing fleet, landed in Yangzhou with 5,000 elite musketeers, and defeated the imperial army with multiple rounds of firearms, and rescued the Guangling Tian family, who had been sieged by the imperial army for half a month and had more than half of the tribe's casualties.
It was not because of the same heart as the Tian family in Guangling, nor because of the same origin as the Tian family in Guangling and the Tian family in Haiping, it seemed that they should be rescued. Zhou Ming was not so bored, but in fact, it was because his father Tian Feng was seriously ill in bed and was already dying. His final wish was to return to the Tian family's ancestral card genealogy, begging Zhou Ming to bring all the ancestral card genealogy back.
So, after returning all the ancestral genealogies from the dejected clan leader Tian Kuang without much effort, Zhou Ming boarded the Clippers and immediately brought these ancestral genealogies to his father Tian Feng.
Climbed up from the hospital bed, walked tremblingly to the genealogy of the ancestral card, and stroked the yellowed title page of the genealogy with your hands. My father Tian Feng was in tears and knelt in front of the ancestral card and said:
"The ancestors and clans! Unfilial grandson Tian Feng brought back all your spiritual positions! Your spirits in heaven can be rested! The descendants of the Tian family will no longer blame me, an incompetent sinner!"
