Everyone looked at each other. This question was a tricky one, but it was also easy and timely.
Otherwise, when someone uses this point to attack Taoism during the missionary period, problems may arise.
They are preparing to attack Buddhism, and it is normal for people to fight back. For their own beliefs, they will use all possible means of attack, and they will be caught if there are any flaws.
Forget about minor flaws, this kind of matter involving imperial power must be done with great care.
Everyone turned their attention to Chen Jingke and Sun Simiao. Since this innovation was proposed by them, they must first ask them if they have any solution.
Sun Simiao was also helpless, not because he was stupid, but because this reform was actually led by Chen Jingke from beginning to end.
Including the previous words were all put forward by this apprentice, who as a master only has a reputation. It is normal to not know what to do when encountering such systemic problems.
At the same time, he was also worried about whether his disciple could solve this problem? What if he made a fool of himself?
Although he was very worried in his heart, his face remained calm and he deliberately asked in a testing tone: "Ke'er, do you have any good ideas?"
In this way, even if you can't come up with an answer at the moment, you still have something to say.
Everyone was successfully misled and admired him for seizing every opportunity to train his disciples. He was indeed a famous teacher. Only such a master could teach such outstanding disciples.
Chen Jingke also knew that the moment to truly test himself had come. Sun Simiao would definitely not be able to help him in this matter, and he would even have to protect his master's face.
I immediately felt heavy pressure on my shoulders.
In his previous life, he would have been helpless and took his hands off the keyboard. After traveling through so many big scenes, his mentality has already undergone a huge change.
At least I won't give up easily, but think about solutions.
What to do after the emperor dies? He certainly cannot be the same as ordinary people.
Although emperors and ordinary people are both human beings, in an imperial society like this in ancient times, to dare to say this is to seek death.
Sometimes people have to be soft, and they have to be cowardly when they should be cowardly.
So how to solve this problem?
He was pacing back and forth, lost in thought, and the others were not in a hurry, but were thinking of solutions.
Since they have expressed their support for innovation, and Sun Simiao's attitude is also very modest, they cannot pass all responsibilities on to each other.
When we encounter problems and solve them together, we are allies. Otherwise, we will really become the vassals and yes-men of Zixiaoguan.
Chen Jingke searched hard and used all his experiences in his past and present lives. He sifted through domestic and foreign myths, online novels he had read, and even bragging jokes from the Internet and netizens.
In the end, he actually came up with an idea.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was feasible, and he said happily: "I have it."
Everyone looked at him in surprise, obviously not expecting him to have an idea so quickly. They didn't even have a clue yet.
After his performance just now, Tian Shiwen admired him very much and took the initiative to pave the way for him: "Oh, please tell me, little friend, if there are any omissions, all the elders here can check for you and fill in the gaps."
Chen Jingke gratefully bowed his hand to him, and then said: "In fact, it is not difficult to solve. The emperor's achievements also need to be evaluated and evaluated. This cannot be changed."
This is also a restraint and incentive for the emperor, and everyone understands this truth.
"But the difference lies in who will judge the emperor. The underworld is definitely not good. It must be changed to another place. So what place and who is more suitable?"
"Heaven." Yin Wenchao answered subconsciously.
Everyone suddenly realized, yes, why do we have to be entangled in the judgment of the underworld? Wouldn't it be better to let the heavenly court evaluate it?
"What Senior Brother Yin said is exactly what I want to say." Chen Jingke smiled and said: "The emperor is the reincarnation of the Star Lord, and it is most appropriate to go to the heaven to accept the trial."
"Emperors exercise power and luck on behalf of heaven, and all laws are immune to ghosts and gods. After death, the soul does not enter the underworld, but goes to heaven."
"But instead of accepting the judgment of the Heavenly Court directly, you first go to meet the sages of mankind and accept their assessment."
"After the death of all the sages of mankind, they all went to the 33rd level of heaven because of their profound merits and deeds. They lived forever and were immortal for all tribulations."
"The Suiren clan, the Shennong clan, the Fuxi clan, the Yellow Emperor, etc. are all in the 33rd heaven, and it is up to them to evaluate the emperor's life merits and demerits."
"Those with profound merits and deeds will remain in the Thirty-third Heaven and rank among the sages, while those who are ignorant and ignorant will have their luck cut off and be handed over to the Heavenly Court for judgment and punishment."
Everyone looked at him in shock again. The previous words may have been taught by Sun Simiao in advance, and he was just paraphrasing them.
But the current problem was raised by Yin Wenchao on the spot, and it was impossible to prepare in advance. How could they not be shocked when they could come up with a solution in such a short period of time.
The key is that this answer is simply too perfect. It not only highlights the imperial power, but also puts a layer of shackles on the emperor.
No one dares to criticize, not even the emperor himself, and they are even very happy with this setting.
Not to mention a young man like Chen Jingke, even an old man like them deserves praise for being able to come up with such a perfect solution in such a short period of time.
"Okay, little friend, this method is very wonderful. I admire it and I support it." Tian Shiwen praised again.
He himself didn't know how many times he had said it in just a short while. There was nothing he could do about it, what the other party said was really wonderful.
This gave him full confidence in this innovation.
Others also had no objections and thought this was the best way.
Chen Jingke was also very happy. This was the first time he solved an unexpected situation independently, and it was still so perfect. The sense of accomplishment cannot be brought by plagiarism.
When I read novels in my previous life, many time-travelers did not like to be copycats and insisted on creating something original. At that time, he felt that the protagonist was too pretentious, but now he understands this idea somewhat.
When a person is in a different position, his thoughts will be different.
Of course, this does not mean that he is against plagiarism. You will still copy when you need to, but it is good to experience originality occasionally.
However, he quickly calmed down and prepared to take this opportunity to reveal the New Alchemy Sutra.
After thinking for a while, he said: "In the reformed Taoist sect, the kings no longer need to take any elixir. The task given to them by heaven is to govern the world and let all the people live and work in peace and contentment, which is to accumulate human merit."
"As long as you complete this task and accumulate enough humane merits, you can go to the 33rd heaven to see you for a long time after death, and all the elixirs and the like can be abolished."
This... no one expected that he would be so radical and want to abolish the elixir.
Not to mention that this would deprive the Taoist sect of a means of attracting emperors and generals, and the Alchemy Taoist sect would also fiercely oppose it. This would simply cut off their lifeblood.
They looked at Sun Simiao together, expecting him to object.
But to their surprise, Sun Simiao nodded solemnly and said: "To be honest with you, I have made some breakthroughs in medical skills and have confirmed that the Immortality Pill does not exist, and..."
He glanced around the crowd and said in a serious tone: "Most immortality pills are actually poison pills. Long-term use will not only fail to make people live longer, but will also lead to short life and difficulty in having heirs."
