"Prime Minister, there is really no end... His Majesty's third proposal is to give you a title... In order to show the difference between you and future Chinese Prime Ministers, and to highlight the achievements of your founder..."
"You cannot be called the Prime Minister...but the Führer!"
Poof... all the tea in the mouthful was squirted out. Xiao Letian coughed violently and bent over. Zai Chun quickly patted his back. While patting him, he said to King Shang Tai, "I told you this name is not good. If you ask me to say that you should be given the title of leader, I remember that Master really likes this term!"
"No! It's the word "head of state" that's good!" King Shang Tai looked stubborn. "The word Yuan is so long! It has the fundamental meaning of element, vitality... and it also means the first person to lead, head of state, first year, number one scholar... Only this word can be worthy of the master’s achievements!”
"Master, you have no other choice. Either you take the title of emperor or king, or you choose the title of head of state!"
Maybe the two brothers had conspired to do this behind Xiao Letian's back. One was in favor of the leader and the other was in favor of the head of state. Maybe the head of state sounded more grand and simple. In the end, Zai Chun also agreed to the brother's suggestion. The first letter of the new domain name of this website is Coke Novel Network, the largest free Chinese romance website. Come on now.
"Cough cough cough... you guys... cough cough cough... you actually discussed it in private before? You actually did such a meaningless thing behind my back... and paid it back to the Führer?"
Xiao Letian is extremely sensitive to this word. In fact, there is nothing special about the head of state. It is an ancient Latin phrase, which means the first citizen of the country and the chief senator of the Senate.
But after the baptism of World War II, the term Führer was given endless Nazi symbols. When almost everyone hears the word Führer, they will think of the mustached man, a man who failed but made the world tremble.
Even if I beat Xiao Letian to death, he would never have thought that two of his disciples would privately submit a proposal to give themselves such a title: "Children should not be allowed to participate in political power! You two are really nonsense... nonsense! I don't want this name!"
King Shangtai was not happy when he heard this: "Master! I will give you the lifelong Prime Ministership, but you don't want it. Now it's just a title, and you don't want it either? Are you giving a blow to the newly opened Citizens' Assembly?"
"That's right! King Shang Tai is right..." At this moment, a voice sounded from outside, and Xiang Ying, dressed in a straight military uniform, appeared in front of everyone.
"Reporting to the head of state, the battleship Zhiyuan has passed the overhaul. Prussian engineer Kevin said that the battleship is in good condition and is ready to go at any time!"
Xiang Ying walked into the pavilion and closed the glass door with his backhand. "That's right... please think again, head of state! The Citizens' Assembly is the Congress of the Chinese people. This is the first time he has exercised power. You rejected three proposals on the first day. This is too unfair." It’s auspicious!”
"And your veto will reduce the authority of the Citizens' Assembly among tens of thousands of people! This is a very bad start. The Chinese will have a very big future. The upgrade of the Assembly to the National Assembly is just around the corner. This institution is the basic core component of Chinese politics. You should support me more and not ruin it!"
Xiao Letian really couldn't bear the three apprentices taking turns to fight together. "But...but!"
"There is nothing wrong with it, unless you, Master, tell us a convincing truth... You can't say that you don't like it. This is sophistry. This phrase is full of compliments. Why don't you like it? It won't hinder you."
How should Xiao Letian answer this? It cannot be said that Germany will have a mustache in the future, and the name of the head of state, Zhentianxiang, will become completely synonymous with him, and it will become a derogatory term.
"You...what else did you come up with?" Xiao Letian said weakly.
"No, King Shangtai's three proposals have been passed. As long as the head of state nods, today's celebration ceremony can begin! Ryukyu's donation is a major event that shocked the world. We must celebrate it well, tonight's fireworks show The scale is even more lively than the previous public memorial meeting!”
Xiang Ying stood at attention, saluted and said, "Head of the State, please change your clothes! All the members of the Citizens' Assembly and tens of thousands of people are waiting for your review. Don't chill the hearts of the people!"
Now that Xiao Letian had no room to refuse, he could only accept everything helplessly, put on his formal clothes and formally walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Xiao Letian really didn't expect that it wasn't just these three second-generation disciples who were hiding from him. In fact, the entire staff of the Prime Minister's Mansion and his die-hard subordinates also hid him.
A brand new gold lacquer plaque was prepared outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, with the four characters "Official Residence of the Head of State" on it. Looking at the huge rosewood plaque, Xiao Letian understood that all this was planned in advance. Such an exquisite plaque was not It can't be built in half a month.
"Head of State! Long live the Head of State!" The figure of Xiao Letian, the gatekeeper of the palace, had just appeared, and the whole square was in a commotion. Except for Xiao Hexin, the three heavenly kings and the second-generation generals had all arrived, including the civil servants, who all stood out and looked at them excitedly. Xiao Letian.
When everyone saw Xiao Letian's figure, they all shouted, "The head of state is here! Long live the head of state..." The soldiers performed a new style of military force, the civil servants took off their hats and held their chests in salute, some people bowed, and some elderly people knelt down in the street.
The cry of "Long Live the Head of State" was earth-shaking. In the hearts of all people, a person could actually make a five-hundred-year-old kingdom willingly give up all his rights by virtue of his personal charm without using force. Such a person can already be respected as a great man and a saint. !
Xiao Letian was extremely sad and thought to himself, "All I need is a hand-raiser! Then if I grow a mustache, I won't be short of anything..."
No, no, no... Xiao Letian, who was thinking wildly, quickly threw away the messy fantasies in his mind, put on a small face that was friendly to the people, raised his hand and waved to all the people.
Luo Huo strode forward and said, "Please let the head of state give instructions on whether to put up a plaque!"
"The Head of State's Official Residence! The Head of State's Official Residence! The Head of State's Official Residence..." The soldiers on the street looked like they had been trained in advance. They quickly and rhythmically trampled the stone pavement with their leather boots and horse shoes, and then shouted the words "The Head of State's Official Residence" in unison. .
Immediately afterwards, the people also joined in, and the shouts from the head of state's official residence suddenly had a bit of rock and heavy metal flavor.
"Hey... what's the official residence of the head of state? Just call it the Eagle's Nest Wolf Castle..."
Raising his hand fiercely, Luo Huo took half a step back and saluted, "Change the plaque! Please get in the car, head of state!"
Times have finally changed. The strong wind that hung all morning suddenly dissipated. The Prime Minister's Mansion, which represented the medieval century, was finally renamed the Head of State's Residence. The Chinese chariot finally passed the first hurdle and appeared in front of the world with a brand new image. .
In the afternoon of that day, Xiao Letian delivered an hour-long speech in the Civic Assembly Hall. He released some of the future development patterns of the Chinese people to the best of his ability. Without exposing too many secrets, it also ignited the enthusiasm in the hearts of the people.
All the telegraph offices in Naha were busy. Today, the news of Ryukyu's dedication and the first exercise of power by the Citizens' Assembly flew to all parts of the world as if it had wings.
