Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty! Chapter 1726 - 706: Pacifying the Three Divine Countries!
Previously on Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty!...
"As those holding authority, we must craft the regulations while simultaneously disregarding them. This is the sole method to exert greater influence over subordinates and ensure the stability of the entire governing structure."
Upon hearing Tang Feifei's pronouncement, Shen Lingshuang felt a wave of dizziness wash over her.
She found herself compelled to ask, "Sister Feifei, could you perhaps simplify your explanation?"
Tang Feifei acknowledged her request, a subtle smile gracing her sun-kissed complexion.
She cast a cursory glance at Shen Lingshuang before posing a counter-question:
"Have you ever encountered the adage? 'Thunder and rain are both the grace of heaven.'"
Shen Lingshuang initially nodded, then gave a slight shake of her head, indicating she had heard the saying but didn't quite grasp its meaning.
Tang Feifei continued, "If one completes a certain volume of work, dispatches a specific number of adversaries, achieves particular milestones, then they rightfully earn a defined remuneration, receive certain accolades, and are elevated to designated positions. In such a scenario... what function do those in superior positions serve?"
"Once you have secured your compensation, garnered recognition, and achieved promotion, do you express gratitude to your superiors, or do you deem it a direct consequence of your own exertion?"
Shen Lingshuang was momentarily flabbergasted, then responded, "Naturally, it is what I have earned through my own endeavors."
Tang Feifei offered a smile, "Precisely. It is the fruit of your personal efforts. Consequently... you have effectively neutralized the authority of your superiors."
"Because all that you have obtained bears no connection to those above you. You are no longer obligated to heed their commands."
"Do your superiors retain any leverage over you whatsoever?"
Shen Lingshuang felt a sharp intake of breath, taken aback.
Tang Feifei regarded Shen Lingshuang, her voice calm and measured, "Therefore... as leaders, as those who wield power, while the creation of rules is necessary, the ordinances we institute ought to be uncomplicated and open to interpretation."
"This is because when the law remains obscure, power becomes capricious."
"Rewards may be distributed, but they must first converge at a central point before being disbursed by us. The quantity allocated rests entirely within our discretion. That is the essence of power, the art of politics."
Having delivered this statement, Tang Feifei paused, her amber eyes drifting beyond the confines of the tent, seemingly focusing on Qing Lan.
She remarked, "Qing Lan possesses exceptional talent, yet she is excessively undisciplined and untamed."
"Qiu Tu will not meddle with her inherent disposition, but should he intend to utilize her capabilities, she must be integrated into our established framework."
Upon hearing Tang Feifei's words, Shen Lingshuang hesitated briefly before softly murmuring, "However... will this not make matters unduly complex?"
"And... it imparts a perpetual sensation that we are contriving against her."
Tang Feifei heard Shen Lingshuang's observation and turned her gaze upon her, akin to a leopard – graceful yet menacing.
She inquired, "Have you overlooked the nature of Qiu Tu's Cataclysm Path?"
"It is predicated on 'Order-Politics'."
"This is the trajectory he is pursuing. If those who surround him fail to adhere to his 'Order,' how long do you surmise his 'Cataclysm Path' can persist?"
As she spoke, a flicker of contemplation crossed Tang Feifei's eyes, and she softly articulated,
"Furthermore, assimilating the individuals and factions closest to him into his 'Order' constitutes merely the initial phase."
"In the future, he will be required to incorporate the entirety of the 'Boundless Heart Sea,' the 'Heavenly God Battlefield,' and even the celestial deities and divine kings residing within the 'Heavenly God Battlefield' into his 'Order'...."
Hearing Tang Feifei's exposition, Shen Lingshuang displayed a dawning surprise, followed by an involuntary descent into deep thought....
