I Want To Be Qin II

For the Great Qin Dynasty to fully support and support Young Master Gao, this is not as simple as Qin Wangzheng's full support for Young Master Gao. Anyone with a little discernment will know that Qin Wangzheng is doing this with the support of the whole country.

Many things before can be called a kind of trial. It can be considered that Qin Wangzheng used Daqin as a battlefield to train Fusu and others.

However, at this moment, Yingzheng's order was promulgated in the form of a royal edict, and it was almost certain that in this battle, Gong Zigao won with an absolute advantage.

The choice of the Prince of Qin is not a random choice like choosing a glass of Qin wine or a glass of Zhao wine.

This is related to the lifeline of Qin's inheritance, so it naturally needs to be cautious, and once a king like Ying Zheng announces it in such a decisive way, he must have already made a decision.

For this, Wang Wan and Li Si can still see it, but this matter involves too many people and problems, and they pretend to be confused if they can.

"promise."

Nodding in agreement, Li Si and Wang Wan looked at each other, and then walked out of Xianyang Palace.

They all knew that Qin Wangzheng's imperial edict would completely break the atmosphere of Great Qin Taiping for many years. Obviously, they all knew why Yingzheng did this.

The Great Qin has not yet swept the world, has not yet unified the world, and at this moment Yingzheng is no longer focused on sending troops out of Hangu Pass and pointing his sword at the six kingdoms of Shandong, but has slowly shifted from the territory to the faith.

Looking around the world, even the Zhou family in the eight hundred years, no one dared to touch the faith. Only the Xia Shang of the year dared to touch the divine power in the name of the emperor.

Gather the right to believe in the unity of the ideological territory, and then create a divine mansion. In that era, countless ancestors forged ahead, and the emperor was the largest divine mansion in the world.

At this moment, Yingzheng obviously has this plan, but both Li Si and Wang Wan know that it is difficult to gather faith, control divine power, and completely suppress divine power with royal power.

It is recorded in ancient books: In the beginning, human beings were ignorant, and their knowledge of themselves and the world was very limited. They attributed everything beyond their understanding to the gods.

As the saying goes, the movement of the sun and the moon, the alternation of cold and heat, the withering of vegetation, birth, old age, sickness and death, everything is controlled by God.

In order to please the gods and obtain their protection, the ancestors elected representatives to communicate with ghosts and gods.

Witch, and so was born.

sorcerer,

Know the world, communicate with ghosts and gods, and use dance to serve gods!

In order to better communicate with the gods and interpret the oracle, shamans consciously master and develop knowledge, so knowledge such as history, astronomy, medicine, singing and dancing, and arithmetic came into being.

It can be seen from this that witches are destined to be extraordinary since their birth. They have power and culture, act in the name of gods, and are the spokespersons of gods in the world.

From Li Si and Wang Wan's point of view, as long as they slowly unfold the ancient scrolls and study the classics carefully, they will find that the shadow of monarchy is always hanging over the group of witches.

The fierce conflict between the monarchy and theocracy lasted for nearly a thousand years. At one time, the sky fell and the earth fell, and dynasties rose and fell. It was not until the early Shang Dynasty that the shamans obtained a short-term suppression of the monarchy.

"According to the rumors, Emperor Zhuanxu appointed Chong as Nanzheng, who was responsible for communicating with the gods; appointed Li as Huozheng, in charge of civil affairs, and prohibited any form of folk communication with the gods. This is the legendary Jedi Tiantong."

At this moment, a strange look flashed in Li Si's eyes, and he said to Wang Wan in a low tone, "This time, the Jedi Tiantong is obviously Zhuanxu's weakening of the power of witchcraft, and Wu's behavior of talking on behalf of heaven seriously threatens the authority of Emperor Zhuanxu." .”

"This is the first confrontation between monarchy and witchcraft (divine power)!"

At this moment, standing outside Xianyang Palace, looking at the blue sky, Wang Wan couldn't help but smiled wryly, and said.

"In the myths and legends of the Central Plains, there was a former Gonggong who fought with Zhuanxu for the emperor, and touched the Buzhou Mountain in anger. The pillars of the sky were broken, and the earth was cut. Where the dust returns."

"The degree of tragedy can be seen from this!"

Both Li Si and Wang Wan are talented people, so they are naturally well-read, and they clearly know that this celestial power is the beginning of the era of the unity of gods and kings. After that, witches and kings, divine power and monarchy become one.

Those full-time wizards gradually left the tribe and stayed in the royal court. They were closely integrated with the monarchy, forming a unique class of great witches, and the almighty witches in the primitive era gradually came to an end.

But this situation changed with the establishment of the Xia Dynasty.

On the one hand, the leader of the alliance has become the emperor of the world, and the solidification of the monarchy has inevitably gradually weakened the witch's color on King Xia, becoming more and more secular.

Although King Xia is still the head of the group of witches in name, he does not often participate in divination.

In this way, the oracle is basically controlled by the big witch class alone, which will inevitably lead to conflicts between theocracy and monarchy. No secular emperor can tolerate an overriding theocracy.

There are clear records from the beginning of the Xia Dynasty. Since Kongjia, there has been a tendency to disrespect God and abandon theocracy.

Under the deliberate attack and exclusion of King Xia and the bureaucracy, Youxia's theocracy was completely suppressed by the monarchy, and people's attitudes towards witches also changed subtly.

With the strong rise of the eastern merchant clan, the second conflict between the witch power and the monarchy broke out in an all-round way. This is the famous Tang Ge Xia Ming.

In essence, this change is a war to maintain the theocracy led by the Almighty Witch headed by Cheng Tang and Yi Yin.

With the victory of the great merchants, the divine right, which had fallen into decline, rose again, and the great witches returned to the peak of power.

Although theocracy lasted for hundreds of years due to the establishment of Shang, with the consolidation of the status of Shang kings and the rationalization of the bureaucratic system, monarchy and theocracy once again clashed like fate.

Zujia, king of Shang, began to impose various restrictions on divination; Wuyi, king of Shang, insulted the gods in every possible way, and made a show of shooting the sky, and was finally struck by lightning and died.

From this we can see to what extent the conflict between Wu and Jun had intensified in the late Yin and Shang Dynasties. And Shang Wang Diyi and Di Xin, like Xia Jie, swung their butcher knives at Dongyi, who was strong in witchcraft.

There was a flash of light in his eyes, and Li Si turned to Wang Wan and said in a low tone: "Although the word witch has basically disappeared, 'they' have not disappeared."

"And after the Zhou family cut down the ninety-nine emperors and became the ninety-five sons of heaven, the divine power became completely superior. However, Duke Zhou created ritual and music. As for the divine power, although it is nominally higher than the monarch's power."

"Unless it is a specific environment, otherwise, the influence of theocracy on monarchy will gradually weaken."

"Originally, this is a kind of victory, but our king has too much appetite. He doesn't want to go step by step, but wants to reach the sky step by step. He wants to control the entire divine power and keep the divine power under his feet."
