"Good girl, let me see your supplementary document!" Liu Lei walked to Yi Wenjun's side and said urgently.
Yi Wenjun opened her dimensional pocket and took out a normal envelope and handed it to Yi Wenjun. Yi Wenjun opened the envelope and saw that the so-called supplementary document was just a simple piece of paper.
Everyone, including Guhan, stared at the paper in Liu Lei's hand. They wanted to know what was written on it and if they could turn the situation around.
"Phew!"
Liu Lei let out a sigh of relief, and a smile suddenly appeared on his originally stern face. He respectfully held the piece of paper in his hand, and then asked Yi Wenjun, "Good girl, can you confirm the authenticity of this envelope?"
"I … I … I only know that this was found among our ancestor's belongings. But our Yi family has been through many disasters. I can't be sure if the things on this paper are real or fake," answered Yi Wenjun honestly.
"Very well, Sir BAT," Liu Lei said to the air. "Could I trouble you to examine this piece of paper and the notes on it to see if they were left behind by His Majesty Shroud-Heaven?"
"What? This paper is His Majesty's authentic handwriting?!" The audience was shocked when they heard Liu Lei's words.
"Wow, there are less than two hundred pieces of His Majesty's authentic handwriting!" The discussion on the forum started again.
"Isn't that right?
I heard that His Majesty hated writing. He would use electronic documents whenever he could. He would only write by hand on paper when he had no other choice.
In his later years, he destroyed many of his authentic handwriting. There are only one hundred and twenty-seven pieces left in the world. Even a single word can be sold for tens of millions of RMB, "an audience member replied.
"Wow, if there are 100 words on this piece of paper, wouldn't it be worth billions of RMB?" The poster who spoke before asked in surprise.
"Are you kidding me? There are less than twenty pieces of His Majesty's handwriting with more than a hundred words. Which one of them isn't worth billions?"
This answer shocked the audience even more. If they could find an authentic piece of His Majesty's handwriting, wouldn't they be rich?
"Alright, stop discussing. Hurry up and watch TV!!"
After Liu Lei asked the question, a Void Gate appeared in front of him. Liu Lei took the paper and stepped into the Void Gate. After a minute or two, Liu Lei walked out of the Void Gate.
"I have sent the paper to the appraisal office. The highest level AI will be in charge of the appraisal. Just wait for the news," Liu Lei said calmly. Everyone waited for another ten minutes.
Liu Lei received a message on his communicator, so he opened the Void Door again and repeated the process of going back and forth. Then, he returned with the note.
"What is the appraisal result?" Shi Jueyuan asked excitedly.
"This is indeed the work of His Majesty Shroud the Heavens," said a robotic voice. It was the voice of the highest AI, BAT.
"Then please project the contents of this piece of paper. I won't show the real thing to everyone."
Liu Lei said. The projector projected the contents of the note, and Yang Qi's eyes went wide in anticipation of seeing what His Majesty Shroud-Heaven had left behind.
[To the Sword committee:
I have thought about it again and again, and I feel that it is inappropriate to rely solely on the will of the people.
The sword bearers are the protectors of humanity. They fight bravely, and their will is above the people.
Therefore, I have decided that when I impeach the emperor, the will of the people will be the same, and the sword bearers will be different.
An ancient sword bearer's will is equivalent to a hundred; a treasure sword bearer's will is equivalent to a thousand; a famed sword bearer's will is equivalent to ten thousand; a spirit sword bearer's will is equivalent to a hundred thousand; an immortal sword bearer's will is equivalent to a million; an emperor sword bearer's will is equivalent to ten million.
This is the way of harmony, and I hereby supplement it.
Yi Qing's handwriting.]
"So that's how it is. His Majesty Shrouding Heaven really is far-sighted." Shi Jueyuan nodded.
When the other sword-bearers saw this, they could not help but nod to themselves. Only some of the ignorant spectators felt quite confused when they saw this ancient text, and they did not know what the Heaven Shrouding Sword Emperor was talking about.
But it didn't matter. Very soon, the vernacular translation of this sentence appeared on the forum. Everyone saw the vernacular translation and suddenly understood.
To put it simply, there was only one core meaning in establishing this letter, and that was, after the impeachment of the Emperor Bloodline began, it was not appropriate to judge based on the will of the people. The will of the swordsman should be above the will of the people, so in terms of the specific distribution of votes, the votes of the swordsman and the votes of the people were different.
The thoughts of the people were equivalent to one vote, which meant that each person only had one vote.
The sword bearers had different votes based on their level.
An ancient sword had 100 votes, a treasure sword had 1,000 votes, a famed sword had 10,000 votes, a spirit sword had 100,000 votes, a celestial sword had one million votes, and an emperor sword had ten million votes.
Taking Yuzhang City as an example, there were around 20,000 sword bearers in Yuzhang City, and their votes added up to more than ten million. In other words, the will of these 20,000 sword bearers was equivalent to the will of ten million ordinary people.
After understanding this, the ordinary people couldn't help but feel a bit angry. It turned out that in Shrouding Heaven Jiandi's eyes, 100 ordinary people were only equivalent to one ancient sword.
However, they quickly calmed down, because they were already used to it. They were used to living a life where the sword bearers had a high status.
Compared to the privilege of the sword bearers, a little bit of votes was nothing.
Furthermore, the position of Sword Tower Master had nothing to do with ordinary people. Ordinary people would never come into contact with Sword Tower, so they wouldn't care if an ordinary person became the Sword Tower Master.
…
"Chairman Xinyu, because this additional document has been discovered, I would like to request a reset of the voting results. I would like to invalidate the votes of the sword bearers, and let the sword bearers vote again to correct the result," Liu Lei said.
Although Xinyu Sword Spirit was very unwilling, he couldn't go against Liu Lei's wishes. He simply nodded and agreed.
"Mr. BAT, do you have any objections?" Liu Lei asked.
"This is Emperor Shrouding Heaven's wish. I have no objections," BAT's electronic voice answered.
With the agreement of the two people, Liu Lei didn't even need to ask Shi Jueyuan for his opinion. He immediately announced that the voting for the sword bearers would begin again.
"Old Shi, what do you think about this? Will there be any changes?" a family head asked Shi Jueyuan worriedly.
"Right now, there are more than 12000 ancient sword bearers in Yuzhang City, which is 1.2 million votes.
There are more than 6000 sword bearers, and now there are more than 4500 sword bearers, which is 4.5 million votes.
There are more than 400 famous sword bearers, which is more than 4 million votes.
There are 23 spirit sword bearers, which is 2.3 million votes.
And Liu Lei alone is worth 1 million votes, which is about 13 million votes in total, "Shi Jueyuan analyzed.
"We have 12 spirit sword bearers, which is 1.2 million votes.
There are also about 200 famous sword bearers who belong to our family, which is 2 million votes.
Ancient sword bearers and treasure sword bearers are a bit weaker. Even if they only have 2 million votes, they add up to 5.2 million votes.
Including the 5 million votes we already have, we have more than 10 million votes.
And the most they can get is 7.8 million votes. We will definitely win this round! "Shi Jueyuan said confidently.
"And among these nearly 20,000 sword bearers, who knows how many of them will vote. Maybe they will be like ordinary people, with only 78% of the voting rate.
Immediately issue the order to all of our people to vote. We must make sure that we get all 4.2 million votes.
With this, our victory is without a doubt! "
Shi Jueyuan's words were like a reassurance pill. Everyone's mind calmed down, and they waited for the voting to begin again with a smile on their faces.
…
"Clearing the votes for the sword bearers!"
BAT's voice said anxiously. Immediately, on the original number of votes, the number of 'agree' and 'disagree' options dropped. These were the number of votes belonging to the sword bearers.
Because there was only one vote for each profession, it was impossible to infer the actual voting result according to the number that was removed. But what worried Shi Jueyuan was that the number of 'disagree' options was more than 10,000, which meant that most of the sword bearers were on Guhan's side.
"Start to send the votes to the sword bearers again. The voting time is 20 minutes. Those who don't vote after the voting time will automatically abstain."
BAT's indifferent voice said, and immediately, every practitioner's personal terminal received a new voting option. Every sword bearer carefully considered their choice, and then cast their precious vote.
"The voting for the immortal sword bearers has ended. Disagree with Guhan's resignation: 1 million votes."
BAT announced. Immediately, Guhan's votes increased from 10326541 to 11326541, which was 11.32 million votes, while the votes for the 'agree' option remained unchanged.
This vote must have been cast by Liu Lei. It was a matter of course that 1 million votes were cast for Guhan. The expressions of Shi Jueyuan and the others didn't change.
"The voting for the spiritual sword bearers has ended!"
After the immortal sword bearers, the spiritual sword bearers had finished voting, which meant that all the 23 spiritual sword bearers had voted.
This result was also within Shi Jueyuan's expectation. After all, the spiritual sword bearers were important targets for the big families to rope in. They knew clearly who was on which side, so there was nothing to hide.
"Agree with Guhan's resignation: 2 million votes; disagree with Guhan's resignation: 300,000 votes!"
The next result announced by BAT almost made Shi Jueyuan jump with joy. On the contrary, Liu Lei's face was so gloomy that he wanted to poke a hole in the sky.
"How could Old Shi be like this?
Don't we only have 1.2 million votes?
When did we have eight more Spirit Sword Level sword bearers?
When did they switch to our side? "
The head of the Liu family asked very excitedly. If 20 of the 23 spiritual sword bearers were on their side, then they didn't need to impeach Liu Lei. They could directly make Liu Lei a mere figurehead, and Liu Lei would have nothing to say.
"No, they are still on Liu Lei's side, but on the issue of the Sword Pavilion Master, they have the same interests as us. Which spiritual sword bearer doesn't want the position of Sword Pavilion Master!"
Shi Jueyuan said gloomily. He actually ignored this important issue. Fortunately, the result of this issue was on his side.
"We can celebrate the victory in advance!" Shi Jueyuan said.
