As the true god of the New Moon Sect, the only master of the entire New Moon Sect, he is not just a monk with a strong personal cultivation, but more often than not, he is a ruler.
There is no essential difference between using the temple church institutional system to control believers, and the emperor using various levels of government to control the country and the people. Theocratic power and imperial power are the same existence, and they are the method for shepherds to keep their flocks in captivity.
However, Li Ye's thinking and Dao heart exceeded the expectations of the true God of the New Moon Sect. You must know that you are well-informed and not limited to this world. In your cognition, Li Ye's thinking is not a product of this era.
Matter determines consciousness, existence determines thought. The current civilization in this world doesn't support Li Ye's Taoism at all. The emperor of this world should be a shepherd, not a "sage".
It is their own choice for emperors to become shepherds, as well as the choice of the times and civilizations. In the current social environment, if he doesn't want to be a shepherd, then he can only fail.
Li Ye said that the freedom, fairness, and dignity of the people of Tang Dynasty cannot be realized in the current world.
To get to the bottom of the matter, the wisdom of the people has not yet been developed.
The education received by the vast majority of the common people in this world, the wisdom and insight they have formed, have not yet reached the level where they can recognize the truth of the imperial order.
Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used app for listening to books. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and is an artifact that supports offline reading. huanyuanapp.org
They have exhausted all their sweat and effort in order to have enough food and clothing, to have a house to live in, for family happiness, for the education of the younger generation, for social relations, etc., and they have no time to receive more knowledge and think about more things.
The true God is very clear that when the flock is just a flock and has not become a wise man, the world does not allow saints to rule. Li Ye's forcing this will only lead to social chaos, and there is only one final result: the collapse of the foundation.
The sheep need to be raised by the shepherd, otherwise they cannot survive. this is the truth.
But? It is also very clear that this world is not as simple as those in the mortal world see it, and it is not even as understood by all the immortals in this world. In this case, if external forces intervene, what Li Ye has done is impossible, but there is a chance that it will become possible.
He came here and chose the path of unifying this world and integrating all the forces of this world, which is different from Li Ye. And as Li Ye said, in a world, there can only be one voice giving orders, and only one banner to be followed.
So,? Can't miss,? Must defeat Li Ye.
The True God calmed down for a long time before he suppressed the sense of vision in his heart. Staring at Li Ye, he said slowly, "There is a question, I wonder if you have thought about it."
"Tell me." Li Ye said.
"In this world, the vast majority of people are born suffering.
"Not to mention not having enough food, clothing, warmth, and no house to live in. These basic living dignity cannot be guaranteed. Living in society, they have to endure yelling and shouting from the upper class all day long. Domineering and oppressive, but can only be pleasing to the eye..."
Li Ye interrupted, "What exactly do you want to say?"
He was keenly aware of a problem. The True God mentioned the word "society".
Before this, he had never heard these two words mentioned in this world.
The True God took a deep breath, "What I want to say is that compared with the rich and powerful, most of the people have suffered all their lives. They are tired and aggrieved, but they still want their dearest and most loved ones. Don't you think it's very strange to continue to be in this world and suffer like this?"
Li Ye understood the meaning of the true god.
The vast majority of the common people have suffered and worked hard all their lives, but they are still giving birth to offspring.
It is not enough for them themselves to suffer this kind of suffering in this world that is not friendly to them, and they want their children to continue to suffer this kind of suffering.
They live at the bottom of society, and their children also live at the bottom of society, so they must experience the pain, torture and fatigue they have experienced.
Why are they doing this
Li Ye said: "So there are imperial examinations in the Tang Dynasty... the children of the lower class may not all be like their parents."
The true god sneered: "How likely is it to be different? For the entire bottom class, how much can change the fate? You can't deny that the vast majority of bottom class people, their descendants are still bottom class. In most cases, The rich get richer and the poor get poorer, this is a reality.
"As an emperor, don't you even realize this? In the end, whether it's imperial examinations or military achievements, it's just a hope. The emperor gave the people this hope, so they will think a little better, be able to comfort themselves, and not be so desperate .
"Because the emperor knows better than anyone else that once the people at the bottom become desperate, it will be the beginning of the turmoil in the dynasty and the source of the collapse of the imperial order."
Li Ye frowned slightly, and was about to say something, but the True God waved his hand, signaling him to be calm, and then continued: "Having children is a family concept, a family concept, and a social concept. If you want to pass on the family line, otherwise, it is unfilial and unworthy.
"And these concepts are the basic idea that the shepherd guarantees that he always has the flock. This is like being loyal to the emperor and serving the country. It is also the understanding that the emperor let the people form. If this is not the case, he is not a good person. And the emperor relies on these to maintain The empire maintains its position.
"Can you say no?"
Li Ye blushed, "Isn't it right to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country?"
Zhen Shen said: "Yes, but it's not what you understand. Only the country and the king who are good to the people need to serve. That is the basic need for everyone to protect themselves together, not a matter of course."
Li Ye disagreed: "Is it wrong to have children and carry on the family line?"
Zhen Shen said: "Yes, but it's not what you understand.
"The continuation of the race is the need and glory of the existence of the race, not a duty imposed by a dynasty that oppresses the people. If the people live poorly because of the oppression by the powerful, then it is in line with Choices of logic and stakes.
"Emperors and dignitaries are afraid of this, so they can reduce the oppression and let the people live better. If the people don't have this awareness, no matter how they live, they will still provide flocks. The emperors and dignitaries can't feel the pressure. Why should they reduce themselves Interests?"
Li Ye pondered.
The words spoken by the true god are convincing and full of confidence, just like seeing such a scene.
This made his thoughts have to drift far away, across time and space, and drift back to a certain place to examine the empires in that world.
Then he discovered that in an empire with a low fertility rate, the living standards of the people were significantly higher.
Li Ye looked at the true god for a long time, then suddenly laughed, and then slowly said: "What you said has nothing to do with my Tang Dynasty. I spread the cultivation method widely, in addition to letting the people have cultivation base, It is to prepare for the enlightenment of their wisdom.
"It's actually very simple to open up people's wisdom, isn't it? It only takes decades of education and publicity to change people's understanding and thinking. After all, this is a logical thing, and people who can think normally will understand it."
Speaking of this, he paused, "Logic, that's the word. I'm very surprised, how do you know it? It doesn't belong to this world and this era. Many of the terms you mentioned are not from this era."
Speaking of this, Li Ye's eyes became sharper, full of exploration and scrutiny, "Who are you? Where do you come from?"
The real god looked at Li Ye playfully, "Who are you, and where do you come from?"
Li Ye understood all the words ? said, which not only showed that ? had a problem, but also proved that Li Ye had a problem.
And Li Ye directly exposed this layer without any concealment, but he didn't think about hiding anything, he just wanted to know the answer.
The conversation between the two, because of the enchantment, they don't worry that others will hear it.
Li Ye said suddenly: "I let the people of the Tang Dynasty master the force and open their wisdom. This is the correct choice in line with your and my understanding. And you use the New Moon Sect to control the common people, and you use the same old methods. It is obviously a foolish and backward choice.”
The True God didn't take it seriously, "You should know that 'a thousand years later', the empires and dynasties in the world will still look like this. Why do you think that the current Tang Dynasty can enter the kind of society you want? Although my method is old, it is suitable for the current era. And you are too ambitious and unrealistic."
Li Ye hummed, and was ready to listen to the true god's continuation. After a long while, he didn't see any further words from the other party, so he couldn't help but wondered, "Shouldn't the sentence 'undoubtedly defeated' be added at the end of the street?"
The True God glanced at him, and said angrily: "Do you think I will say such a shameful thing?"
Li Ye gave a thumbs up.
At this point in the conversation, neither of them spoke for a while.
What should be said has already been made clear. Seeing that Li Ye's Dao heart is strong and there is no opportunity to take advantage of it, the True God also extinguished his thoughts of defeating him in this respect. ? Curiously, why did Li Ye do what he knew he couldn't do.
In the current era, if there is no external force, it will take decades for the people of the world to enlighten their wisdom. Even if the people of Tang Dynasty are different and cannot be compared with some people thousands of years later, this time can be shortened,? I think it will definitely require the education of several generations.
But the current situation is that even if Li Ye unifies this world, there will be far less than a few decades to spare.
Not even ten years!
Under such circumstances, if the Great Tang unified the realm of comprehension, then when the crisis came, the realm would still be in chaos, and the situation would be extremely bad.
But what the True God has to admit is that Li Ye's thoughts are absolutely unparalleled to the real people with lofty ideals. They would be willing to fight for Li Ye, and they would not hesitate to die. In their eyes, Li Ye is a hero, an unparalleled hero in the world.
"I just have one question right now."
The True God spoke again, staring at Li Ye closely, as if he wanted to see him clearly, "If there is not enough time, education is not popularized, and people's wisdom is not broadened, and now the officials of the Tang Dynasty, after the Tang Dynasty unified the world of self-cultivation. How can you ensure that these officials, and even the descendants of these officials, will always respect the freedom, fairness, and dignity of the people?"
Li Ye's eyes suddenly became like fireworks.
He knew what the question meant.
Sure enough, the true god laughed jokingly and said: "If you are really from that world, you should know that there used to be an unprecedented great man who, for the sake of officials and descendants of the powerful, still respected the freedom, fairness and dignity of the people just like him. Some methods were adopted to allow the dynasty he defeated to realize and maintain the appearance of "Datong".
"He let officials and the descendants of the powerful go to the countryside and villages to live with the people at the bottom, let them know the hardships and hardships of the people at the bottom, and hoped that the descendants of the officials and the powerful would take the responsibility of the people of the world like him. In order to suppress, To restrict the powerful and officials, he did not hesitate to start another war.
"But what the result is, I don't think I need to repeat it.
"If you know about this, you should understand that your choice is wrong."
Li Ye stared at the true god, the flames in his eyes became more and more intense.
There was a sudden tension between the two of them, and the atmosphere that had been fairly peaceful before had froze to freezing point in an instant.
Li Ye finally confirmed that the other party was indeed from the same world as him.
The true god met Li Ye's gaze without evading it in the slightest.
There seemed to be thousands of thunderbolts in the air that were about to explode at the same time.
However, this strange atmosphere disappeared completely in the blink of an eye.
Because the flames in Li Ye's eyes subsided.
He regained his composure and calm demeanor, and the look of looking forward to his majesty between his brows was even more intense than before.
He said lightly: "My dynasty is called Datang, and my people are called Tang people, so my choice is not wrong."
Although the tone was flat, it was loud and undeniable.
The real god was startled.
Looked at Li Ye for a long time.
Finally, he confirmed that Li Ye was not lying.
's face became a little ugly.
"Whoever is on the right path ultimately has to be proven by practice, and in this war, you and I must decide the winner." Li Ye ended the conversation.
The corner of his mouth outlines a curve of wisdom beads in his hands. As an emperor, if he doesn't trust his people, he doesn't need to practice any emperor way.
God is silent.
I know, Li Ye is about to give the order to go to war.
With a wave of his hand, he let go of the barrier, and the true god ordered the New Moon Sect immortal: "Retreat ninety miles and deploy defense!"
A march of thirty li is considered a house, and a retreat of ninety li is called retreating three houses.
