The world is at peace.

The moment these four words hit his ears, Ji Boying's eyes subconsciously twitched.

At this moment, he even had the urge to take off his invisibility, become holy, and beat this kid up.

"Go back first."

In Ji Boying's eyes.

Zhu Shizhen, the late emperor who was already almost crazy, did not hesitate. He raised his hand and pressed the crystal button in the sandalwood box.

Neither Lao Zhu nor Abiao have figured out what is going on.

At least, they haven't figured out what the box means, and why their lives are instantly destroyed as soon as they press the diamond-shaped crystal button.

Is it so magical?!

When Lao Zhu and A Biao reacted again, they had already returned to the familiar elegant room on the top of the pavilion.

"Huh?!"

As soon as the three people appeared, more than twenty people came into view.

Ji Boying glanced at the more than 20 people, then glanced at the fallen door panel at the door, frowning.

Forget it about eavesdropping, the door is packed to the brim?

"Who broke it?"

"Stand up for yourself."

The immortal master said it in one sentence.

Scratch.

Everyone stood in unison and took a step back.

Only the three fat men were stunned. Just as they were about to retreat, they found that more than a dozen hands were blocking them and they were pushed forward.

‘You unfilial descendants! You are cheating on your ancestors!!’

"Master Immortal, we were wrong."

The three fat men gritted their teeth and bowed in unison.

No way, apart from the three Zhu Di, the three of them are the senior ones.

As the saying goes, if the sky falls, those with seniority will hold up.

"After class, fix it."

Ji Boying glanced at San Pang and left a faint sentence. Ji Boying said no more about this matter.

Take a deep breath.

Ji Boying couldn't help but frown as he recalled what he had just seen, his expression showing a bit of solemnity.

To be honest, Ji Boying actually never expected that in the later generations of Hongwu time and space, the divine power would appear to suppress the imperial power, and even force the emperor to the point where he would detonate a nuclear bomb and die together.

Of course, the reason why such a thing happened is also related to Zhu Shiqi’s crazy character. That kid is not a normal person at first glance.

Looking at it this way, the succession system for the crown prince that has been established since the Hongwu Year has most likely encountered some problems as time goes by and hundreds of years later.

‘Divine right.’

Thinking of these two words, Ji Boying couldn't help but frown a little tighter.

When he initially decided to embody theocratic power, his core purpose was to implement various institutional reforms, and he did not consider the series of disadvantages that would arise after embodying theocratic power.

In other words, I never thought that this drawback would occur.

Because what Ji Boying thinks is that although he has embodied divine power, he will not use this divine power to rule the people, let alone interfere with the imperial power, and will not use this divine power to shape and imprison people's hearts.

The cage.

This embodied divine power is essentially just to help the imperial power better control the officials and better unite the people. This is completely different from the papal divine power in the European Middle Ages.

However, he overlooked one thing.

The corrosion of time, and the evil of the human heart.

When he embodied theocratic power, the Ming Dynasty ushered in the era of theocratic power.

Moreover, the opening of this era of theocratic power was based on the strong support of the imperial power and the premise that the imperial power was willing to bow under the power of theocratic power.

As time goes by, decades, hundreds, and hundreds of years, divine power overrides imperial power, and the idea that imperial power is a believer in divine power must be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and become the subconscious mind of all people.

Over time, there will inevitably be loopholes taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives, who will try their best to seek personal gain from divine power.

At first, it may fail or be suppressed, but with repeated attempts, the scale will inevitably grow larger and larger.

Whenever there is a mediocre ruler in power, whenever there is a period of political turmoil, and whenever such thoughtful people succeed, something similar to a sect will appear, and when it reaches a certain scale, it will sweep away fallen leaves like the autumn wind.

Generally, it quickly captures the hearts of the people at the bottom and expands rapidly at a geometric doubling rate.

We must believe that just because the people are intellectually enlightened does not mean that people are not easily deceived, otherwise there would not be so many highly educated people being cheated.

What's more, the divine power of Hongwu's descendants has been passed down in the empire for hundreds of years. This is an extremely terrifying time figure.

Over hundreds of years, vicissitudes of life, and passed down by dozens of generations, divine power has penetrated deeply into the hearts and minds of the people.

These sects all worship the Xuanqing God of Enlightenment, and use the banner of the God of Enlightenment to preach and attract people.

Xuanqing’s divine right to educate Tianzun was recognized by all the imperial powers.

When a sect reaches a certain scale, even sending troops to suppress it becomes impossible.

Who do you suppress?

We are all believers of Xuanqing Jiaohua Great Heavenly Lord!

Once you send out troops, it will be tantamount to violating the ancestral way and disrespecting the great god of education, and you should be punished by heaven.

And to a certain extent, the entire royal family, including the emperor, are followers of the Xuanqing Jiaohua Tianzun.

As for the teachings, it is even simpler, because today the emperor is unruly and the emperor cannot bear the suffering of the people, so he specially issued a decree and ordered us to rescue the people and teach the emperor to return to the right path.

Hundreds of millions of people are devoutly under my Xuanqing religion and worship the Great Heavenly Lord of Xuanqing religion. Do you royal family want to rebel against the Great Heavenly Lord?!

Once the empire formed this pattern, divine power and imperial power stood on opposite sides of each other.

At this time, the divine power has completely lost its original intention of being embodied.

The next process is a game between imperial power and divine power.

And because the ancestral legal system has established the order in which divine power overrides imperial power.

So that.

In this game, the imperial power has actually been at a disadvantage from the beginning, and will most likely lose in the end.

Even though the imperial power holds the decision-making power on all matters in the empire, the divine power captures the people's hearts.

As temples, localities, people, and armies are gradually preached by theocratic power, and as theocratic power is interpreted by all kinds of people with evil intentions, if it doesn't work in one generation, then it will take two generations, if it doesn't work in ten years, then it will take a hundred years, and the imperial power will eventually be eroded.

Ji Boying swept across these emperors and princes.

The door was squeezed open, indicating that these princes and princes of the Ming Dynasty had all seen through the real-time projection live broadcast what happened when Ji Boying took Lao Zhu Abiao to the future of Hongwu.

The words fell.

Everyone looked solemn and nodded. They didn't understand what was going on at first. It wasn't until they heard Zhu Shiqi's last confession that they finally understood the problem.

"Tell me what you think."

Ji Boying sat by the window, and with a tap of his fingers, there were two more cups of tea in front of the desk, one of his own and one of Lao Zhu's.

As for the others, including A Biao and the three Zhu Di, they are all standing in the house at the moment.

However, when Ji Boying asked, everyone remained silent.

Even Abiao, the top student who always answered questions most actively, was frowning and silent at this time.

It is normal for the emperors and princes to have this reaction.

Because divine power is derived from the body of an immortal master.

They can't make an evaluation of the immortal master. They can't put the blame on the immortal master and whether they will be in the class in the future.

Especially Emperor Xuande. At this time, Emperor Xuande frowned more and more. He originally expected the immortal master to go to his dynasty to support him and educate hundreds of officials and people.

But now, my heart is shaken.

"Lao Zhu, what do you think?"

Ji Boying picked up the teacup and took a sip, then looked directly at Lao Zhu, who was sitting opposite him.

"Brother, it's hard for us to say this."
