According to the Mandate of Heaven, kings were considered godlike beings, so they could do as they pleased explains how some Zhou rulers used the Mandate of Heaven to misuse their power

Option A

<h3><u>Explanation: </u></h3>

According to the Mandate of Heaven, the rulers were considered to be the supreme leaders of China and their rule was justified by the belief that they were chosen by Heaven and that the right to rule was given to them by the ancient God known as Sky or Heaven.

This is how a lot of early Chinese emperors managed to keep their power through the various ages and periods of turmoil. If the king was ever overthrown, it was believed that he had let down heaven and was unworthy to rule.
