All civil and military officials immediately fell to their knees!
Ji Lanshan once ordered that in the event of an emergency, all civil and military officials would see that the emperor would not kneel down.
But now...
All civil and military officials knelt down and kowtowed to Ji Lanshan at the same time!
"Your Majesty's civil and martial arts skills will make you a wise king for eternity! You will never let me down!"
After one prayer.
Ji Lanshan's eyes instantly turned red.
Based on this sentence alone, she has no complaints about what she has done for the Luanshan Dynasty over the years!
But in just a moment, she gathered her emotions and suppressed her red pupils.
"but……"
Ji Lanshan spoke calmly, with a hint of sadness in her tone: "After tonight, I will no longer be your Majesty."
When these words appeared, everyone confirmed their suspicions!
Some people were kneeling and didn't dare to get up, while a group of people stood up directly!
They raised their hands towards Ji Lanshan and shouted: "Your Majesty! I am willing to follow your Majesty to the death!"
"No, no, no."
Ji Lanshan waved her hands, her tone becoming more and more angry.
She even turned to face Yu Xian, who was sitting on the Taishi chair watching a play, lowered her eyebrows and cupped her hands: "From now on, I will be your crown prince."
Your Majesty!
This word cannot be used by everyone under the Nine Heavens.
Don't you see, even the Demon Emperor and the Immortal Lord will only be called Your Majesty, and there is only one person who can be called His Majesty.
Demon Lord!
These days, civil and military officials have communicated frequently with people in the cultivation world, so naturally they know this unspoken rule.
Now when they heard Ji Lanshan call the man on the Grand Master's chair this way, everyone was shocked!
Is it possible...
The man on the stage is the rumored Demon Lord!
From the appearance point of view, they are somewhat similar, but their temperament... is a little different.
How could the rumored Demon Lord look so lazy? If he hadn't been sitting on the throne at the moment, no one would have believed him even if he was said to be a street kid.
But judging from His Majesty's appearance, this matter is not false.
After all, even their Majesty would not dare to make fun of the Demon Lord.
"But Your Majesty..."
As the head of the ministers, the Prime Minister took a step forward, raised his hands to Ji Lanshan and asked: "If you follow Demon Lord Mian and leave, this Luanshan Dynasty..."
"That's exactly what I'm saying."
Ji Lanshan turned to look at the ministers and said calmly: "I summoned you here today to find a way out for the Luanshan Dynasty."
"Now that I am leaving the dynasty, you can speak freely about the arrangements for the Luanshan Dynasty. If you have any ideas, just say so."
Ji Lanshan has been in charge of the imperial power for several years. Except for cultivating her confidants in the first year, most of the matters in the court are decided by her words.
The officials in the court do not need to put forward any opinions, they only need to implement her will.
If there is any problem during the execution process, it means that the person's ability is not good enough, and we can just screen and eliminate it when the time comes.
This has become a generally recognized thing in the entire Luanshan Dynasty.
Now Ji Lanshan asked them to think about the future of the entire Luanshan Dynasty...
They were suddenly at a loss.
Only a few capable ministers with great ambitions and who were not afraid of the pressure in front of them raised their heads.
They looked at Ji Lanshan in the court hall and seemed to want to speak, but they were all a little timid and did not want to be the first to come forward to report.
Those who can reach their current position will not understand this truth.
"how?"
Ji Lanshan asked back, and the emperor's pressure suddenly fell!
"My court has a bunch of stupid pigs! They only know how to eat and don't even know how to make a bow!"
Angry!
The ministers knelt down again!
His Majesty who scolded Fang Qiu is back again.
"Everyone, get up!"
Ji Lanshan frowned and roared: "If you want to kneel on your knees, save them for kneeling on the new king!"
"His Majesty!"
The Prime Minister spoke again, but his body was still prostrate on the ground: "May I ask Your Majesty, who is this new king...?"
Although his brain is not as good as Ji Lanshan's, he is still the prime minister of the dynasty and was promoted by Ji Lanshan.
When you hear this sentence, you naturally understand what it means.
These two will not stay here long!
This is true. If the person above your Majesty's throne is really the Demon King, how could he care about a mere mortal dynasty?
What he cares about should be His Majesty himself.
The problem today is not the Demon Lord, let alone His Majesty. The key to the problem lies in the new king Your Majesty calls you!
Nowadays, in the Luanshan Dynasty, only His Majesty’s royal bloodline is left, and then there is the bloodline of the prince who knows how many generations ago.
They are all in the imperial capital, but those disciples...
To be honest, I don’t know if His Majesty alone has sucked up all the luck of the entire Luanshan Dynasty royal family. Apart from him, none of the royal family members can take on important responsibilities.
There is one who is a little more reliable. With his intelligence, he can only be in charge of a village or county.
Now that the Luanshan Dynasty is expanding, if the dynasty is handed over to those children...
They veterans might as well rebel!
"Wei Changshu."
Ji Lanshan looked at the Prime Minister who was kneeling under the stage and spoke his name calmly.
"I'm here."
Wei Changshu bowed and handed over his hands. Countless people who could become the new king flashed through his mind, but when he heard Ji Lanshan's words, he suddenly froze on the spot.
"Are you willing to take charge of Luan Mountain?"
"Omi...ah!?"
The words Wei Changshu was about to say were stuck in his throat, and he looked up at Ji Lanshan in disbelief.
Take charge...take charge of the mountains?
Wei Changshu was completely stunned and didn't know what to say.
demise?
Although this system has existed since ancient times, from beginning to end it was only a high-sounding statement made by a minister who had committed a crime and forcibly seized the throne.
Not to mention the Luanshan Dynasty, even if we look at all the common dynasties under the Nine Heavens, no king has ever independently proposed the idea of abdicating the throne.
Even Wei Changshu was thundering in his heart at this moment and didn't know what to answer.
"Wei Changshu!"
Ji Lanshan called out his name again: "I'm waiting for your answer."
"Master...I..."
Wei Changshu raised his head and looked at Ji Lanshan in front of him, with a flash of tenacity in his eyes.
He slowly stood up and became the only person standing in the hall, and then slowly said: "I am willing to take over the Luanshan Dynasty!"
"Don't worry."
Ji Lanshan looked at Wei Changshu, and then spoke again: "You can't get my approval by taking over the Luanshan Dynasty with just one word."
"I have three conditions. If you can meet them, then the Luanshan Dynasty will be left to you to continue to rule."
"Your Majesty... you said."
Wei Changshu subconsciously wanted to shout out the word 'Your Majesty'.
But he knew that this was not the time to be polite, let alone to show loyalty.
The Luanshan Dynasty was in the midst of expansion and needed a strong monarch, not a weak monarch.
The less humble and arrogant you are at this moment, the easier it will be to win over people's hearts and convince the ministers.
"First, after you take over the Luanshan Dynasty, you need to appoint nine pavilion elders. I have already made a list of the first group of pavilion elders. Ten of you will discuss the major affairs of the country at the same time. If more than five pavilion elders refuse,
The matter can no longer be discussed."
"Yes." Wei Changshu answered with his hands raised.
He sometimes had the confidence to lead his ministers, but he did not have the resourcefulness to conquer the entire Southwest Xuantian. If he had the help of the nine people left behind by His Majesty, it would be possible to continue to maintain the expansion of the Luanshan Dynasty.
"second."
Ji Lanshan spoke again: "Except for the existing royal family of the Luanshan Dynasty, there can be no more princes or titles."
"In other words, except for the Ji family, there can be no more nobles in the world. Likewise... this includes the royal family!"
"yes."
Wei Changshu lowered his eyebrows and agreed.
He also has his own family. If he becomes the new king, he will completely enter the palace.
But now Ji Lanshan made a second request, obviously because she wanted to preserve the aristocratic status of the entire Ji family.
But what's the point?
Even if he agreed to this request, he would promise not to establish a new royal family or create any new nobles.
It's okay for one generation to the next. Once his grandson comes to power, the Ji family will inevitably become the first batch of people to be liquidated.
Wei Changshu didn't understand what Ji Lanshan's arrangement meant until...she made her third request.
"Third, the abdication system needs to continue forever."
In one word, it’s like thunder falling!
Before Wei Changshu could speak, Ji Lanshan's voice sounded again.
"Wei Jun can rule the Luanshan Dynasty for ten years. After ten years, he will need to find one of the nine pavilion elders to inherit the throne. If Wei Jun still has the energy at that time, he can also become one of the nine pavilion elders.
One member."
"The next Pavilion Elder will also need to act in this way. For up to ten years, he will choose one from the nine Pavilion Elders."
"As for the selection of the position of Pavilion Elder... Luan Mountain is divided into nine states, and one person is selected from each of the nine states. The eight Pavilion Elders other than the Pavilion Elder of that state, plus the current emperor, will conduct the assessment and selection."
"If you want to become a Pavilion Elder, you must be at least forty years old."
A series of instructions came down.
Both Wei Changshu and the civil and military officials below the palace were all in a daze.
Even Yu Xian, who was sitting on the recliner, stood up straight.
