My God, I am the emperor, the lord of mankind.

Chapter 412 Pre-Qin

The phoenix bird carefully looked at the sacrificial patterns on the surrounding walls.

It was now very sure of its thoughts and said.

"The Han people at most renovated this place, and these sacrificial texts are absolutely impossible to control by untouchables like Liu Han..."

Fengniao's tone was unusually certain.

Looking at Zhu Houcong's face, there was a slightly suspicious expression.

it added.

"You may not know this. After all, you have not experienced that era. The monarchs since Qin are all destined kings... But before Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, if you wanted to rule the world, things would be much more troublesome than this."

At this point, it hesitated for a moment.

After all, destiny was involved, and it was not sure whether those terrible things would allow themselves to expose their background in front of Zhu Houcong, the ruler they appointed as the ruler of the human world.

But for a moment, it did not sense the warning of destiny, and then it relaxed and continued to speak to Zhu Houcong.

In order not to cause trouble, it only used sound transmission, and only Zhu Houcong could hear it.

The phoenix spread its wings in order to adapt to the environment of this planet as soon as possible.

"In the era we live in, only the princes canonized by the Zhou royal family and the descendants of ancient kings are eligible to obtain fiefs, while the countrymen and barbarians are just the untouchables who are ruled. People with a background like Liu Bang's, let alone a monarch, are just Not even the soldiers in the army can do it.”

Zhu Houcong listened quietly.

The people of the country generally refer to the residents of the territory directly under the king of Zhou, and they are the population who directly provide troops and taxes for the king of Zhou.

Although the barbarians were also subjects of the Zhou royal family, they lived in relatively remote areas.

It is unlikely to interfere in the political affairs of the country.

Naturally, each vassal state is divided into countrymen and barbarians.

Of course there are differences between nobles and commoners.

Chinese people usually have a certain amount of property and land, and only then can they prepare their own dry food and weapons for the monarch to fight.

Savages are similar to slaves and basically have no personal property. However, the only difference is that savages are freer than slaves and can find cave huts to live in at night.

Slaves could only live in stables or other livestock sheds.

However, whether they are Chinese or savages, they are all civilians.

During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, nobles and commoners were physically separated.

A man like Liu Bang, no matter how capable he was, would have been assigned to the scholar-bureaucrats for the rest of his life in the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

And fighting is not something ordinary people can fight.

At first the wars between princes were small.

Only the nobles had force, but as the scale of the war expanded, the armed civilians, under the leadership of Liu Bang, easily wiped out the remnants of the nobles of the Six Nations and the successors of King Qin.

Relying on powerful force to conquer the world.

"The emergence of the Mandate of Heaven gradually led to the demise of the aristocratic system that relied on the blood of ancestors and sacrifices to ancestors to rule fiefdoms... In the end, autocratic monarchs like Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han were created, and the aristocratic system was shattered It was completely shattered..."

Speaking of this, Fengniao's tone couldn't help but feel a little sad.

He couldn't help but think of the incredibly powerful mortal monarch who once brought an end to the Six Kingdoms.

People thought that as the most powerful noble, the First Emperor would lead the world to push this aristocratic system to a new peak.

Who would have expected that the final result would be that he personally brought an end to this system.

The complete end of the old system was announced.

Perhaps in his opinion, whether they are the survivors of the Six Kingdoms or the old people of Qin and Guan.

No matter how many people died, it was not as important as him gaining immortality and dominating the world forever.

Perhaps——Fengniao could only guess this way.

After all, when the Qin Dynasty was strong and powerful, the barbarians did not dare to go south to herd horses, and the scholars did not dare to bend their bows and complain.

Even Destiny can only hide its edge and wait to see where this most powerful descendant of the ancient holy kings will lead this empire.

And dare not really intervene directly.

Looking at the sad Fengniao next to him, Zhu Houcong also fell into thinking.

Even before the kings of Zhou and even longer ago, the power of nobles to rule the world came from blood and sacrifices to their ancestors.

"Nowadays, dynasties of all dynasties offer sacrifices to the destiny of heaven, and today's wealthy people from all over the world offer sacrifices to wild gods to seek refuge. How does this have anything to do with the pre-Qin aristocrats offering sacrifices to their ancestors——"

Zhu Houcong keenly grasped this key.

In the actions of those wealthy families who are secretive and subconsciously cover up the origin of their family inheritance.

Although it is very likely that they themselves do not quite understand where their family's power comes from.

But they instinctively express repulsion and wariness against anyone who wants to explore and unearth the source of their power.

Zhu Houcong once thought that their power was obtained by reaching some kind of contract with the barbarians in the Ming Dynasty.

It now seems that using the power of ghosts and gods to maintain one's rule seems to have existed in the pre-Qin era.

Fengniao glanced at Zhu Houcong appreciatively.

Not far away, the evil phoenix named Jiao Ming seemed a little impatient at this time.

Fengniao was on guard while answering.

"Exactly like this, the aristocrats of the pre-Qin Dynasty were physically wiped out by the army of civilians armed by various destiny forces. The laws of Qin and Han made their remaining descendants unable to escape in the mainland, and their inheritance naturally fell into into the hands of the new upstarts of the Qin and Han dynasties——"

"You must know that the nobles of the Pre-Qin Dynasty offered sacrifices not only to their ancestors, but also to the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, wind, rain, thunder and lightning and other natural gods - of course, the most important one is "Tai Yi"

Taiyi.

Speaking of this name.

The phoenix bird who once occupied the south and was king couldn't help but became a little silent.

This is the great god whom he, his ancestors, and his subjects have long worshiped.

Perhaps now, no one knows His true name.

Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, great things like Taiyi have been called in awe and unity by the new nobles of the court who destroyed the Six Kingdoms and massacred them again during the Chu-Han War - —Destiny!

"Honor the Heavenly Patriarch—"

Fengniao murmured.

Zhu Houcong still has doubts.

"Since the method of sacrifice has been spread, where is the bloodline power of the nobles of the pre-Qin Dynasty now?"

Zhu Houcong asked.

He suddenly realized that his behavior of transforming the bloodline of mortals through various means and creating a forbidden army was by no means the first in this world.

A long time ago, people have adopted this technology to transform themselves and achieved success.

"Is it not allowed by fate? Or -"

"Destiny will not care about these things. Just like the method of sacrifice, the power of blood still remains in this land."

Fengniao replied, when talking about the mystery of the disappearance of bloodline power, it turned its head.

Zhu Houcong felt His avoidance.

This made him even more confused.
