Chapter 390: Integration of politics and religion

The scenery in the back garden is beautiful. It is summer, but the climate in the palace is still pleasant.

There is no heat at all, fragrant grass is everywhere, and spiritual flowers are blooming.

In Fengyi Pavilion, there were only three people sitting in front of the stone table.

The maids and palace attendants were all standing outside. Although the cool breeze flowed into the pavilion unimpeded, they could not hear a word spoken by the three of them.

After hearing what the little emperor said, Han Tianming smiled slightly and asked:

"May I ask Your Majesty, why is the emperor also called the Son of Heaven?"

Lu Chunyang on the side suddenly lit up when he heard this question.

A smart person can tell at a glance. At this moment, the look he was looking at Han Tianming was even more brilliant.

Never thought that he actually had such a strategy?

It may have been a wrong decision for me to refuse Fang Xiang to assist His Majesty in handling government affairs.

The other party is clearly a wizard who can perform general and general appearances!

Even Lu Chunyang himself can't do this!

Some people in this world are suitable for studying literature, while others are suitable for practicing martial arts. Everyone has different talents.

And he, Lu Chunyang, is good at strategy, knows how to make plans and break up situations, and can also practice, but in terms of internal affairs, he is not outstanding.

The ability to govern the Wei Dynasty for so many years was also inseparable from the old emperor and the young emperor's own strategies for governing the country.

Although the little emperor has shown some great talents and strategies, he is still too immature and still sticks to the rules in many aspects.

Following his father's policy.

But the situation is always new, and there are always changes in the world. For example, the prevalence of this faith is also one of the variables.

In contrast, the way of governing the country will naturally have to be modified, and the old rules may no longer apply.

If the little emperor could learn Han Tianming's ability to manage internal affairs, why would the world not be able to manage it?

"The so-called Son of Heaven means the Son of Heaven, which means the herdsman is represented by Heaven, and the king's power is granted by Heaven!"

Yuan Hongrui can naturally answer such a simple question.

Likewise, he was able to draw inferences from one instance, and he had vaguely grasped something when he answered, but he was not yet able to get through all the joints.

Seeing his frown, Han Tianming asked with a smile:

"May I ask Your Majesty, what is heaven?"

Yuan Hongrui was speechless for a moment.

How to explain this?

The way of heaven?

It is difficult to say whether Heavenly Dao has self-awareness and whether it can be embodied.

Even if this is a world with people who come and go to cultivate immortality, perhaps no one can really tell what the way of heaven is.

Heaven is neither a person nor a living being.

"The so-called way of heaven is too illusory for ordinary people."

"However, the king of a country can turn the imaginary into reality, regard heaven as his father, and call himself the Son of Heaven."

"So can gods turn reality into reality? Since kingship can be granted by heaven, can kingship be granted by god?"

Han Tianming followed Yuan Hongrui's guidance and guided him towards this feasible path.

"What the Heavenly Master means is..."

Yuan Hongrui paused. He already understood some of the key points, but he was a little hesitant.

"Do you still want me to call myself the Son of God?"

Han Tianming suddenly burst into laughter.

"The so-called Son of Heaven and Son of God is just a code name."

"Serve the gods with respect and respect them from afar, and use the imperial power as the representative of the gods. From then on, the gods hang high in the sky, and your majesty manages the mortal world."

"Your Majesty is both the human emperor and the leader of the Holy Religion. He integrates political power and religious authority into one body. This is the unity of politics and religion!"

The main reason is that Han Tianming doesn't want to worry about it. He just doesn't care about things as long as he can gather the power of faith.

As long as the Tianshi Sect becomes more and more perfect, the little leader and the archbishop next to him will be in charge.

He just needs to be his idol and stand tall, how leisurely is that?

"I see!"

Yuan Hongrui suddenly realized.

"In this way, a unified situation can be formed both spiritually and physically, allowing the imperial power to play its greatest role."

"Wherever the government decrees go, everything is accessible! If someone is rebellious, it is not only against the will of the court and not tolerated by law, but also against the faith of the people and not allowed by human sentiment!"

"So...so cruel!"

Even he felt that the control exerted by this was too terrifying.

In this world with immortals and the power of heaven and earth, there are gods even if you don’t believe in gods.

No one can believe it.

And to enshrine God in a high place, not to let God use his own rights, and to use imperial power to replace divine power, is what he wants to do.

In a purely secular world, ordinary people certainly believe in heaven, but there are some things that even secular imperial power cannot do.

In this way, conflicts will inevitably arise.

Once the contradictions are irreconcilable, some people will question and even challenge the imperial power.

Unlike the completely secular world, in the Wei Dynasty, there were real immortal cultivators.

What the ordinary imperial power cannot do, the Wei royal family can do through the powerful immortal cultivators!

This means that some contradictions of traditional secular dynasties can be avoided, and the people's awe of divine power can be continuously deepened, thereby consolidating imperial power.

This is almost absolute control for the common people.

As long as the internal power of the dynasty does not change, and there is no absolutely strong external pressure, it is completely possible to achieve long-term rule!

Therefore, although Yuan Hongrui said that he was too cruel, what was burning in his eyes was boundless ambition.

Being able to say this is his first instinct as a human being. Humanity prompts him to consider things from the perspective of the common people.

And the ambition burning in his eyes was his instinct as a monarch!

Lv Chunyang on the side was also silent.

In fact, more often, he was used to looking at this huge dynasty from the perspective of a cultivator.

This led to a vision that was too high, and thus he often forgot about the common people below.

Now, after understanding Han Tianming's meaning, he realized that a country here cannot only rely on cultivators.

It is not that you can completely control a country by mastering high-end combat power.

Not to mention other things, it is just that the slashing of the dragon vein caused countless families to oppose this matter.

If the unity of politics and religion is truly achieved and the thoughts of the people are controlled, those so-called evil gods and obscene worship can be abolished with a single word!

Even if the aristocratic families resist, it is useless!

This time, weren't they instigating the people to reject the court's decrees and dedicate their faith to those evil gods and obscene worship, which led to the destruction of their flesh but not their true spirits?

In fact, in this, the aristocratic families acted as the so-called high-end combat power.

They have cultivators, and when they share the same goals with the emperor, they can certainly keep moving forward on the same chariot.

But once there is a conflict between them, they can secretly hinder each other!

After the Shinto, the local area can still be governed by these noble families on weekdays, but once these noble families do not cooperate.

The decree can be immediately passed through the Shinto!

In a sense, isn't this a kind of constraint on the noble families?

The two expressed their opinions and became more and more excited.

Han Tianming smiled and said:

"It takes strength to defend the country. The noble families have high-end combat power and need to be properly won over."

"It takes sincerity to defend the religion. The believers of the Tianshi religion do not ask about their background, as long as they are loyal!"
