521 Building the Cabinet
Li Xiang coughed lightly and walked over from not far away.
A few of them were alarmed. They turned around and immediately smiled.
“You’re here! What happened just now?”
Yang Mi stood up and walked to his side. She naturally hugged his arm and asked curiously.
“It was an accident. Didn’t Qing Ying go out to do something? I had some good fortune and got some rare treasures. After tasting them, I unexpectedly condensed divinity. However, we didn’t let him pletely condense it, so he’s still in the demigod realm.”
When Li Xiang said this, everyone was shocked.
“You’re saying you had a chance to bee a God just now?”
Li Xiang did not hide anything and explained, “It can indeed be condensed into a true divinity, and even construct a Divine Kingdom before flying into the God Realm. But I gave up. The reason is simple. I’m not very satisfied with the divinity and Divine Kingdom I’ve condensed. If I bee a God, it’ll be unsatisfactory. In the eyes of the gods in the God Realm, I’ll still be insignificant. Such an oute is meaningless!”
“Moreover, if we bee gods, we’ll have to go to the divine world and be unable to interfere with the lower realms. Even if we can, it’ll be very troublesome. I still haven’t found my parents and sister, so how can I bee a God? What should we do if I leave and they e to the Myriad World continent?”
All the girls nodded. Although they felt it was a pity that Li Xiang had given up such an opportunity, Li Xiang’s reason was excellent.
Being a god was not the ultimate goal, and the divine realm was not without worries. The battles there might be even more brutal.
Therefore, it was necessary to make plete preparations.
Moreover, everyone had parents and relatives. If they left, what would they do if their relatives descended? Would they bee the prey of the foreign race?
This could not be allowed!
Li Xiang thought of something and looked at Yang Mi and the others, “You all know that my Kingdom of Dawn is not a feudal country. There is only a Country Lord, no Emperor, and you form even the management. So instead of calling it a country, it’s more like a territory; I’m just a Lord. We don’t have a perfect system, so do you think I should make some changes to turn the Kingdom of Dawn into a real empire and for me to sit on the throne?”
When the women heard this, they looked at each other. But, of course, they did not expect Li Xiang to ask such a question.
All the women had thought about this question alone but could not e up with an answer in the end.
If they were to build an empire, it might be more formal, and the name would be more proper. However, it felt a little inappropriate.
However, if they did not do this, it would be too crude to rely on them to manage such a large country and hundreds of millions of people.
“What do you think?” Chen Shu was the first to ask.
Li Xiang leaned back, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and said thoughtfully, “I don’t want to change the current system. After all, even though the Kingdom of Dawn appears massive, it is still fragile pared to the other races. There is still a huge gap in strength and foundation. If we want to establish an official country, then we need to establish an official system to manage the people.”
“Indeed, there is no lack of talent on the island, but managing a country will take up too much energy. Being an Emperor is not like being an idle manager. Even if you don’t do everything personally, you still need to make decisions on many things!” Zhou Yutong said in agreement.
“Yup! This is a world of transcendent beings. So while having a strong national power is important, it is also important to have individual strength. If you waste all your energy on governing and managing a country, it’s putting the cart before the horse, and it’s not desirable!”
“What do you think?” Yang Mi asked.
Li Xiang pondered for a while and slowly said, “I plan to set up an organization to manage the country and name it the cabinet! You will also select a few talents proficient in government affairs to manage the country. The Kingdom of Dawn will be very different from modern society. They don’t have to worry about terrible things. Everything will be monitored and recorded by the Star Web. The Star Web will monitor corruption, tyrants, and even their words and actions. If they were guilty, they would be punished. If they were meritorious, they would be rewarded. So it shouldn’t be difficult to deal with them. As for the other things that happen in other places, we can also establish affiliated institutions through the cabinet to manage them. What do you think?”
“How should we address this cabinet member? Or would it have any reputation? You won’t let us be called Pavilion Elders, will you?” Yang Mi glared at Li Xiang unhappily.
“Hahaha!” Li Xiang imagined these women being called Pavilion Elders. He could not help but laugh out loud. “I plan to divide the cabinet members into two ranks. The first rank will be made up of you guys. The second rank will be made up of the people you select. You are responsible for selecting, managing, and reviewing people. At the same time, the second rank will be responsible for the execution and handling of specific affairs. What do you think?”
Ning Xiaoyu blinked her big eyes and said, “I don’t think it’s any different from our current situation.”
“The difference isn’t big,” Li Xiang said with a smile. “But it’s only proper if it’s legitimate!”
“Then what are you going to do?” Tong Qingya asked.
“Naturally, I’m in charge of cultivation, strength, the army, defense, and offense! If there’s anything you guys can’t decide on, you can e and ask me!”
Yang Mi understood Li Xiang’s meaning. The Kingdom of Dawn was unlike the other countries because they did not need to use their methods. They only used the process of managing their territories. Li Xiang managed the entire country but was mainly responsible for external battles. The internal affairs were handed over to them. It was that simple.
“Since you’ve said so, then it’s decided! You can announce the Star Web; the remaining things don’t have to change. But we’ll be busy in the future!”
Li Xiang did not waste any time. Seeing they had agreed, he immediately contacted Star Spirit and published an announcement through the Star Web.
Immediately, all the citizens with the Dawn Identity Card received the information sent by the Star Web.
[ Ding! King’s announcement: a cabinet will be established today. The five wives of the Country Lords will be in charge of internal affairs. The King will control the overall situation. At the same time, he will be mainly responsible for military affairs and Foreign Wars. ]
Previously, the women had helped Li Xiang manage the country, but they had not made it public. Now that they had made it public, strangely, it did not cause much reaction.
Not many people cared about this because no matter how things changed, it had little to do with ordinary people.
Only some Castellan city Lords were more sensitive to this news.
However, their reactions to this were also bizarre. They did not have any objections, nor did they discuss much.
At this time, there were only three days left before the end of the black tide.
The black tide outside the country’s boundary did not weaken. Instead, it became more terrifying.
The entire Starlight Canopy was emitting faint starlight at all times. This was a reaction caused by an attack from an unknown and terrifying existence.
