"Well, the hanging mirror has been set up. Tomorrow at three quarters noon, those princes and nobles will be tortured."
After briefly talking about what happened recently, Jiang Chen made arrangements for the next actions.
The Xuantian Mirror, which means a high-hanging mirror, is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure that contains thirty-six innate divine prohibitions.
According to legend, the First Emperor had a precious mirror, called the Xuantian Mirror, which had the power to reflect people's courage and judge whether their officials were fair or not.
This legend is true, because now, this treasure is in Jiang Chen's hands. The First Emperor hung the hanging mirror outside the palace gate to detect the center of his ministers.
After the First Emperor handed Xianyang City to Jiang Chen, this treasure naturally fell into Jiang Chen's hands.
After Jiang Chen obtained the Xuantian Mirror, he directly smashed the innate spiritual treasure into pieces and refining it with countless innate spiritual objects, refining it into one hundred and eight Xuantian Treasure Mirrors.
As for the ability of this mirror, in addition to reflecting people's courage, it also has the ability to monitor the heavens. To put it simply, it is like the weakening of the Haotian Mirror.
Wherever the Hanging Sky Mirror is, everything that happens within millions of miles around it cannot escape its supervision.
The one hundred and eight hanging sky mirrors work together to form a small Zhoutian star formation. The power is not even weaker than the best innate spiritual treasures, and the scope can reach all over Kyushu.
It can be said that there are one hundred and eight hanging sky mirrors hanging high in the sky, distributed in all directions of the nine states. Nothing in the nine states can escape the surveillance of the hanging sky mirrors.
The bright mirror hangs high and sees everything.
As long as the cultivation level is not that of a quasi-sage, even the innate Taoist master cannot escape the surveillance of the Xuantian Mirror.
What is a sharp weapon to maintain rule? This is it. Everything in the world is reflected in the mirror and can be known at a glance. In this way, who can do anything under the eyes of the ruler?
In addition, Jiang Chen also added a projection function to the Hanging Sky Mirror. To put it bluntly, it is a live broadcast function.
As long as Jiang Chen is willing, the one hundred and eight hanging sky mirrors can project the picture he wants on the sky, allowing countless creatures in Kyushu to observe it.
If you want to conquer the hearts of all living beings, this function is very necessary.
Tomorrow, the princes and nobles will be killed. These one hundred and eight hanging mirrors will be responsible for the live broadcast, making sure that all the people in Kyushu can clearly see this scene.
In this way, Jiang Chen can win the hearts of the world.
Even if Jiang Chen later promulgates a decree, he can also use the Xuantian Mirror to conduct a live broadcast, using the simplest and most direct language to tell all the people in Jiuzhou the purpose of promulgating the decree, the significance of doing so, and what they can do
benefits obtained.
If orders are conveyed from top to bottom, and there are many people who have passed them, most of the orders will lose their original meaning after they are passed down to the lower levels.
Either they are being overweighted or discounted. It is far better to spare them and tell the people directly.
Of course, these are not enough. Laws and regulations must be implemented by someone to be effective. If no one enforces them, then no matter how good the law is, it is just a piece of waste paper and has no meaning.
This is the meaning of Jiang Chen's sending out the Demon-Conquering Heavenly Soldiers before. They are Jiang Chen's most heartfelt deployment and will unswervingly and uncompromisingly implement his will.
Therefore, the decree issued by Jiang Chen will be implemented by them.
As far as the demon-suppressing heavenly soldiers are concerned, they can do whatever Jiang Chen says. If someone goes against them, it would be even simpler. No matter who they are, they can just kill them. They can do whatever they want in Kyushu.
"Governing a country is essentially a very simple matter. The reason why it becomes complicated is because people's hearts are very complicated."
"For various reasons, those who execute orders will either over-enforce the law or choose to enforce the law..."
"And even if those in power are well aware of all this, they would not be able to rectify it because they take into account the interests of all parties."
"In other words, even if we start to rectify it, there will be no good results. On the contrary, it will make the situation worse and make the phenomenon more serious."
"Benefits are attractive to people. No matter how good the laws are, if the people below do not implement them well, they will turn good things into bad things."
After conveying the order, Jiang Chen suddenly thought of something and said to everyone with emotion on his face.
"Yes, nothing can be accomplished if the people are not united. Throughout the dynasties, rectifying officials has been a very important matter. Especially local officials, we must guard against collusion with local aristocratic families."
"The place is far away from the imperial court. Once the government and businessmen collude to prey on the common people, the local people will be doomed. They will not even be able to find a place where someone can make the decision."
"Of course, we must also be on guard against high-ranking officials in the DPRK and Central Government to prevent them from accepting benefits from local officials and acting as their protective umbrella..."
When the counselors heard Jiang Chen's thoughts, they thought Jiang Chen was asking them about the policy of governing the country. They all became energetic and told Jiang Chen their thoughts with excitement on their faces.
I learned martial arts and sold them to the emperor's family. Isn't this what I have now? If the king accepts their ideas and governs the country with this, then their names will go down in history.
Ah no, it’s more than just being famous in history. This is the King of Humans, the king of the entire human race. If his thoughts are accepted by him, it’s not as simple as being famous in history. He has to be recorded in the history of the human race and become praised by those who come after him.
Sages.
Just like King Wen went to the Weishui River and asked Jiang Shang, it would be an eternal story that would be passed down to later generations. Thinking of this, everyone became even more excited.
"Wrong. Essentially, the reason why all this happened is due to the lack of power of those in power. If the people in power are strong enough and have no scruples, they will naturally not be restricted."
"Just like me, in Kyushu, my power can be said to be omnipotent. It would be fine if the officials below perform their duties, work conscientiously, and carry out my orders without compromise."
"If they violate the law intentionally and misinterpret the laws I promulgated, or add layers of emphasis, or greatly discount them, then why should I keep them? Just take them down and punish them, so as to warn others."
Jiang Chen thought of governing the country very simply, not because he was smart enough or too idealistic, but because he was strong enough.
In the ancient times, Emperor Jun ruled the heaven, and his orders were obeyed by both heaven and earth. Countless monster clans even regarded him as a god. His orders, no matter how unreasonable they were, would be strictly implemented.
Why?
Because the demon clan is obedient? Wrong, because Di Jun is powerful enough. Among the demon clan, those who disobey his orders will either leave or die.
Let’s not talk about the demon clan, but talk about the early ancient times, when the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors ruled the human race. Why didn’t we see so many things in later generations?
It is non-existent that all the major clans would obey the Human Emperor's orders and disobey them. No one dares to disobey whatever the Human Emperor says.
Why is this so? Is it because the ancient human race had a relatively simple character and didn’t have so many twists and turns?
This is really funny. In ancient times, the human race would do whatever it takes to survive. Demonic monks abound, and there are even many evil cultivators who are even more evil than the demonic.
People's hearts are simple? What they are talking about should be the first generation of human beings who have just been born.
In ancient times, in order to survive, the human race almost became instinctive to be cunning and cunning. What kind of people don't have that?
There are demons who instigate all races to conquer each other in order to collect evil spirits for cultivation. There are ruthless people who secretly hunt down the geniuses of all races and use their origins to polish themselves. There are traitors who infiltrate all races and steal their supreme inheritance.
There are even evil cultivators who plunder the flesh and blood of all races, practice ancient sacrificial methods, and sacrifice to the devil in exchange for power.
The human race in ancient times was in such chaos, with lawless people emerging in endlessly. Even under such circumstances, the orders of the Human Emperor were able to make everyone in the human race obey them.
What this relies on is not the simple human heart, but the Human Emperor's all-encompassing cultivation.
This is the difference between the immortal dynasty and the mortal dynasty. In the face of the orders of the mortal emperor, the people below can obey and disobey them. But in the face of the orders of the emperor of heaven, if the people below dare to disobey, they will disappear immediately.
Of course, emperors in the human world can also do this, but after all, the power of a mortal emperor does not come from himself. If he kills too many people and causes all his subordinates to rebel, then even the emperor who is aloof will become a prisoner overnight.
But the Emperor of Heaven is different. The Emperor of Heaven is supreme. If his subordinates rebel, they will rebel. In a single thought, he can kill them all. Even if the whole world rebels, it doesn't matter. If this world is destroyed, the world will be opened.
If these creatures are disobedient, then kill them and create a new batch of obedient creatures.
In the final analysis, if you want to break the established rules, you must have unparalleled power. In the same way, as long as you are strong enough, no matter how difficult it is, it is extremely simple to do it.
…
"Your Majesty, if you kill too much, you will easily be labeled as cruel. Moreover, there are not many scholars in the world. If you kill too much, there will be no one to govern the world."
Everyone thought that Jiang Chen wanted to ask them about their philosophy of governing the country, but they did not expect that this was not the case. Instead, Jiang Chen wanted to instill in them the philosophy of power first.
Everyone had received traditional education, so when they suddenly heard Jiang Chen's radical remarks, they found it hard to accept them.
"Um?"
"You have made a mistake. When I govern the world, I do not need scholars, nor do I need wealthy families. They are not necessary to me."
"If they are obedient and willing to cooperate with me, then I can keep them. On the contrary, if they are not only disobedient but also want to be my enemy, then I don't mind killing them."
"As long as I am willing, I can create a large number of talents in an instant to do things for me. There is no such thing as weighing the pros and cons, balancing the left and right, worrying about this and that... there is absolutely no need."
"There are indeed many existences outside Kyushu that I am afraid of. But there are no such existences in Kyushu."
"You remember, in Jiuzhou, I am the sky and I am justice. My words are the rules, and even heaven and earth must obey them."
Jiang Chen was a little helpless. It had been so long and his subordinates had not yet adapted to the difference between him and the human emperor.
Therefore, he directly stated his status in Kyushu. He is the god of Kyushu, and he can do whatever he wants in Kyushu.
This is clearly telling them that if they want to do anything, just go ahead and do it without fear of offending others or having any scruples. Any enemy will be like a chicken and a dog in front of them, and they will be vulnerable to a single blow.
"I am the sky of Kyushu!"
This was the first time that everyone heard such arrogant words. Even the emperor did not dare to say that he was the emperor of Jiuzhou, but Jiang Chen dared.
Because this is the fact. He is not only the sky of Kyushu, but also the sky of the prehistoric times. The sky is where the boundless starry sky is, and Jiang Chen is the lord of the boundless starry sky. Isn’t it the prehistoric sky?
The rotation of the four seasons, the change of time, wind, rain, thunder and lightning, all natural phenomena, the cycle of life and death... are all under Jiang Chen's control. They move because of him and call themselves the sky. Why not?
Even if Jiang Chen said in front of all the saints that he is Qingtian, he is the blue sky, the saint would nod in agreement and call Jiang Chen Qingtian, fellow Taoist Qingtian.
Jiang Chen is the prehistoric god, even if he doesn't say it, this is an undisputed fact.
Huang Tian Hou Tu, we used to talk about Taiyi and Hou Tu, but now we talk about Jiang Chen and Hou Tu. It can even be said that Jiang Chen deserves the title of Huang Tian more than Tai Yi.
"I left those aristocratic families, not because I need them, but to give them a chance."
"If they cherish this opportunity, they should know how to cooperate with me. On the contrary, I don't mind killing them easily."
"After tomorrow's matters are dealt with, you should think carefully and adapt to the difference between gods and mortals. What I want to build is a divine court where humans and gods coexist, not a human dynasty."
"You are all smart people. You should understand that if you cannot adapt to the changes of the times, you will be eliminated by the times."
With one final instruction, Jiang Chen left. There are some things that no matter how much others say, it's useless. They need to understand it themselves.
And as Jiang Chen said, if you cannot adapt to the changes of the times and still look at the new era with old eyes, you will inevitably be eliminated.
…
…………
Time flew by quickly, and soon it was noon the next day.
On this day, the vast land of Kyushu suddenly changed, and bright mysterious lights erupted, dividing each continent of Kyushu into twelve regions. The total number of Kyushu is one hundred and eight regions.
Immediately afterwards, I saw a bright mirror emerging in the sky above each of these one hundred and eight areas, hanging high in the air, hanging down the bright mirror light.
The light was so dazzling that it seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. The endless creatures in Kyushu below couldn't help but look away with guilty conscience the moment they saw the mirror light again.
At this moment, they felt that their hearts were seen through by the bright mirror hanging in the sky, and any dark thoughts could not escape under the bright mirror light.
This mirror can actually see through the heart!
Mirrors hanging high have the meaning of justice. Jiang Chen created one hundred and eight hanging mirrors not just to monitor the land of Kyushu. He also hopes that the creatures of Kyushu can always reflect on themselves.
Damn it, I feel so bad. The authors who worked with me back then have all taken off now.
Especially when I think that I have been coding every day without making any progress, and they have been playing with it for more than half a year, and the new book has taken off, I feel even more sad.
