Great Han!

"Good!"

"It is indeed a good na for a nation!"

All the fellow disciples unanimously agreed.

From this point on, the na of the new dynasty was established.

"Your Majesty."

Xu Wencai spoke again: "There is one more matter, I don’t know if I should ntion it or not."

"Just say it."

Chen Sansi ca to the main seat and sat down, pouring himself a cup of tea.

"The nation na as Great Han is indeed grand and imposing, but..."

Xu Wencai hesitated.

Chen Sansi teased: "Say what you want. Am I going to chop off your head?"

"Hey!"

Xu Wencai then said: "Has Your Majesty ever thought that your own na is sowhat..."

"Unpresentable!"

Wang Zhi openly said: "Junior Brother, where have you ever seen an emperor with a na like ’Er Niu San Zhuzi’? Your na ’Sanshi’ is indeed quite unrefined for formal occasions!"

The na Sanshi, originated from Yanbian Village, was indeed an earthy one without much consideration.

"According to what you are saying."

Chen Sansi paused, "I still have to change my na?"

"At least when the imperial edict for the enthronent is written in the future, it cannot contain the na Sanshi."

Xu Wencai suggested: "But there’s no need for a massive change; I have an idea. ’Sanshi’ ans ’stone’, which signifies unbreakable and also implies ’remarkably open and upright’, subtly in line with the Han symbolism. What does Your Majesty think?"

"Stone?"

Chen Sansi contemplated for a mont: "Good, let’s decide it like that."

"Good!"

Xu Wencai continued: "Your Majesty, the matters of the enthronent and the ceremony are almost entirely prepared, only the enthronent edict is not yet ready, and I am still selecting candidates."

Historically, the enthronent edict had to be compiled by renowned scholars of the ti to ease the hearts of the scholars and comfort the common people.

The world was just stabilized, and people’s livelihoods unsettled.

Chen Sansi, adhering to the principle of frugality, was initially not planning to go to Ziwei Mountain for the ceremony, but this involved whether the mystical energy could successfully convert into the nation’s fortune, and he dared not allow any mistakes.

Therefore, both the enthronent edict and the ceremonies could not have any errors, but everything should be done frugally, without extravagance and waste.

It’s just that the edict has been under preparation for nearly half a month, and there’s still no candidate finalized, probably there’s so trouble.

"Call them all over."

Chen Sansi spoke: "I will choose the person myself."

"I obey the decree."

Xu Wencai seed a bit worried but still complied.

Within an hour, all six great scholars of the Capital City were brought to the Champion Marquis Mansion.

Unexpectedly, upon entering the main hall, the leader opened his mouth to scold: "Chen the Hunter, traitor Chen! The court has done so much for you, why conspire and rebel?!"

"Audacious!"

Feng Yong harshly reprimanded: "Zhong Lizhi, don’t think you can spout nonsense just because you have a bit of fa. If you dare to disrespect the current Holy Emperor, be cautious of bringing disaster to your nine clans!"

"Bring disaster to my nine clans?!"

Zhong Lizhi laughed coldly: "Traitor Chen, even if you destroy my ten clans, Zhong here will never write the enthronent edict for you, and you will always be a traitor!"

The delay in the edict being precisely because these individuals were unwilling to cooperate.

"Courting death!"

Feng Yong roared and was about to draw his sword.

Chen Sansi signaled him to stand down with a raised hand, then quietly looked at the great scholar on the ground and calmly said: "For what does Lord Zhong read books?"

"..."

Zhong Lizhi was stunned for a mont, then replied confidently: "Naturally for Jiang Mountain and Society, for the common people!"

Chen Sansi asked again: "Then between the court and the common people, which is more important for soone like Lord Zhong who reads books?"

"This, this..."

Zhong Lizhi stamred: "The Saint said, ’The people are valuable, Society next, the ruler is light,’ naturally, the common people are important."

"So you understand."

Chen Sansi slightly squinted his eyes, gradually intensifying his tone as he spoke: "Then may I ask Lord Zhong, what has the Cao Family done for the people in the past hundred years of Jiang Mountain? Is it Spiritual Grain’s devastation or continuous wars? You, Zhong Lizhi, holding high office residing within the Capital City, besides helping the Cao Family write articles to deceive the common people, what else have you done for the people?!

"While my brothers and I, with tens of thousands of lives, corpses piled like mountains, overcoming countless hardships, finally eradicated Spiritual Grain, and pacified the realm!

"Am I not worthy to sit on this Jiang Mountain?!"

The last sentence, like divine repercussion and heavenly condemnation, was thunderous and soul-shaking.

"..."

Zhong Lizhi found no room for rebuttal, only managing to stutter: "Traitor Chen! No matter how you try to argue, we will never write the edict for you!"

"I never intended to ask you!"

Chen Sansi suddenly stood up, his regal eyes piercing hearts: "You people are nothing but lackeys of the previous dynasty, house slaves of the Cao Family, what kind of scholars are you, and what great scholars?!"

"Writing the enthronent edict with pens from your hands would make the na and legitimacy neither justified nor smooth!"

"..."

Zhong Lizhi gathered his courage and said with gnashing teeth: "Since you won’t use us, then just kill us!"

"Kill?"

Chen Sansi laughed coldly: "No, I will neither use you nor kill you."

The faces of several great scholars suddenly beca tense, looking at each other, unclear about his intentions, feeling uneasy for no reason.

His gaze swept over them one by one: "I’ve read the dossiers of you gentlen, if I’m not mistaken, you seem to have been scholars for generations, holding office in the Capital City for generations, correct?

"So, apart from reading in books, it seems you haven’t actually seen what the common people look like.

"Ah, Feng Yong.

"Revoke their official positions, henceforth, their descendants are barred from participating in the imperial examination or serving as officials, then send them to the fields outside Po Yang County in Beiliang Yunzhou, find so plots of land for them—not pri land, not poor land—give them a set of farming tools, and let you gentlen truly see what common people are, and what Jiang Mountain and Society really are!"

To beco farrs, never to hold office for generations?!
