As a transmigrator, Yin Shang naturally had a very appropriate example of the relationship between the Son of Heaven and the Sage.
For example, if an emperor in the future believed in the Sage, he would definitely be countered by the Confucian scholar-bureaucrats. They might even use the Sage's words to kidnap the emperor.
At the same time, the scholarly faction could also use the theory of Heaven's Perception to obtain the right to interpret Heaven's will.
At that time.
The so-called Son of Heaven had become a decoration.
After all, the Confucian scholar-bureaucrats themselves could convey their will to the entire world through the will of heaven. The Son of Heaven did not even have the function of a microphone.
If the Confucians were allowed to continue their barbaric expansion for hundreds or even thousands of years!
One could imagine.
Confucianism would eventually evolve into Confucianism.
At that time, it might even be possible for Emperor Ru and the Son of Heaven to rule the Nine States together.
This was also the most fundamental difference between the East and the West.
In the West, the gods were above the king, and the king was below the law. That was why religious forces could compete with the imperial power, or even surpass it!
On the other hand, the east…
The emperor was definitely above the saints!
The law could restrict the people of the world!
However, he had never heard of anyone who could deal with the emperor according to the law!
In a feudal dynasty, the emperor would at most issue an edict to punish himself. This was the most effective way of punishment.
Perhaps it was because of this.
In the eastern Huaxia, there was no god that could bewitch the people.
To put it bluntly.
The emperor would never allow such a powerful god to exist. After all, he was the emperor himself...

"Next, we're going to talk about supervising the first batch!”
Yin Shang's explanation of the Maoling system entered the final stage.
Kill a batch, move another batch, and supervise another batch.
The number of people killed was definitely very small.
Most of them migrated.
The ones supervising them were some local scholars.
Most of these people had the reputation of the aristocratic families of the Central Plains, but they were far from being that rich, and their food cities were also very limited.
Then there was no need to migrate. It was enough to stay in the local area for control.
"First, apart from the county governor, county deputy, and county lieutenant, we will set up a censor to supervise the implementation of the policies of the officials and to supervise the local small aristocrats from colluding with the bureaucrats!”
Yin Shang thought for a moment and said," Secondly, we need to issue another decree to solve the problem of the local officials slowly expanding…and suppress the civil and military factions in Guanzhong!”
Setting up a censor to supervise was definitely a stopgap measure.
Treating the symptoms but not the root cause.
As for suppressing the nobles and military officials, Yin Shang felt that it was necessary.
In Shang Yang's system of military merits and titles, anyone who was conferred a title of marquis would have a large number of food cities.
The two marquises of the Junwu family already possessed the capital and reputation of an aristocratic family!
Legend.
The Langya Wang Clan and Taiyuan Wang Clan were both branches of the Great Qin Army's Wu Wang Clan.
In other words, even the descendants of Marquis Wucheng, Wang Jian, could be so powerful…If the Junwu family continued to grow, it would definitely be detrimental to the rule of the empire.
As for why the direct descendants of the Junwu family were not passed down in history.
The reason was simple.
The eldest son of the third generation of the Junwu family: The Great Wall Army led by Wang Li had been defeated by Xiang Yu!
Guan Yu's bravery is unparalleled in history.
Wang Li had been captured alive by Xiang Yu and then executed, becoming the greatest disgrace to the Royal Family!
Although victory and defeat were common in the military.
However, the 200,000 soldiers of the Great Wall Army led by Wang Li were defeated by the 30,000 disciples of River East led by Xiang Yu.
Yin Shang could only say that Wang Li was not worthy of being the direct descendant of Marquis Wucheng, Wang Jian.
" Censor supervision, legal system…"
Fu Su thought about it for a moment before saying,""Master, the official position of the Imperial Censor is easy to understand, but what kind of law system can fundamentally solve the problem of the local officials continuing to grow?”
Fu Su found it hard to imagine.
After all, local officials were often far away from the center of the court.
As the saying goes, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, the people are few and the husband is many.
It was simply too difficult to get rid of the local officials and strengthen their own forces.
The strengthening of the imperial power required time.
Now that the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, had just unified the world, his influence on the local areas was naturally limited.
But it didn't matter. Regal prestige could be extended by the legal system!
"Very simple."
Yin Shang thought for a moment. "Little scholar, do you know why the soldiers of the Wei Dynasty were able to defeat the Qin army with 50,000 elites? However, the Wei soldiers in the later stages were completely crushed by the elite soldiers of Great Qin?”
" The difference between the generals…" Fu Su said instinctively." There seems to be something wrong with the system…"
Fu Su finally realized something.
His understanding of the military was lacking.
In the underground palace, the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, also fell into deep thought. It would probably be extremely detailed and complicated to completely eradicate the laws and regulations of the local officials!
