Answer 1

Answer:

B. recieve authority from heaven

Explanation:

Ancient Chinese beliefs were very much based on Confucian concepts, which stated that good rulers had a mandate from heaven, where their actions were guided by the deities and therefore had good results. They also believed that a bad and tyrannical ruler would lose that mandate and would act with total lack of sense and humanity.
