For example, imagine the emperors before the Mandate of Heaven was established. Besides the obvious fact that they were emperor, there's no real reason that the people should follow their rules (at least no significantly convincing one). Now, on the other hand, the people believed that those rules and demands by their emperor were actually divine.
