Chapter 415: If you become the Duke of Pei and take Pei County, you can destroy Qin? Funny!
Ying Chengjiao laughed so hard that tears came out.
This abnormal situation made Zhao Gongming frown. He couldn't remember any other manifestation of epilepsy that would cause one to laugh wildly to such an extent. This was too abnormal.
"Gong Ming has no ill intentions. He only wants to calm Chang An Jun's heart. Please do not move."
Reach out your hand and push your palm.
Before it was halfway done, it was blocked.
Ying Chengjiao brushed aside the black-faced man's kindness, raised his head, and smiled with tears in his eyes.
"Mr. Zhao, Cheng Jiao has already told you that he does not believe in heaven. What Cheng Jiao said was to go against heaven, not against the trend. It is Mr. Zhao who has always been stubborn and has over-thought. Heaven is shit. If it really has spirit, will it send down a divine thunderbolt to kill me now?"
Zhao Gongming's face turned dark with shock.
He thought that the fact that the First Emperor had no respect for the gods was already outrageous enough, but he did not expect that the First Emperor's brother, Chang'an Jun, was even more outrageous, and actually had no respect for the heavens!
The rumor that La Ji threatened to defy heaven on the altar is not a false rumor, but true!
Ying Chengjiao wiped the water stains from the corners of his eyes.
"Your Majesty was carving words and beheading immortals at Mount Huashan, and you didn't show any abnormality. Why do you have such an expression towards Cheng Jiao? I thought you would be surprised at most."
This time it was Zhao Gongming's turn to rub both sides of his face, not to suppress his smile, but to restore his expression and his thinking. He was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.
He was silent for a moment, lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice:
“Heaven and earth are different from gods and ghosts.
"After Mozi's death, the Mohist school was divided into the Qin Mohist school, the Chu Mohist school, and the Qi Mohist school.
"After the death of Confucius, Confucianism was divided into the Confucianism of Zi Zhang, the Confucianism of Zi Si, the Confucianism of Yan, the Confucianism of Meng, the Confucianism of Qi Diao, the Confucianism of Zhong Liang, the Confucianism of Sun, and the Confucianism of Yue Zheng.
“The same is true for the Immortals. After the Yellow Emperor ascended to heaven on a dragon, many branches emerged within the Immortals, all claiming to have inherited the Yellow Emperor’s orthodox method of becoming an immortal.
“Lie Yukou’s lineage imitated nature, and their respect for heaven, earth, ghosts, and gods far exceeded that of the contemporary world.
"Yin Xi's lineage refines external elixirs and swallows them to cultivate internal elixirs, believing that swallowing a golden elixir will break through the gate of life and death.
"I went to Mount Zhongnan and found the ancient book Huangdi Waijing, and started practicing Buddhism on my own. So far, I have not met anyone who practices Huangdi Waijing with me, and I don't know which lineage of immortals they belong to.
“I believe that gods and ghosts are created by human beings. If they have not made any great contributions to the world, why should we respect them?
"I imitate heaven and earth, learn from heaven and earth and learn the ways of gods and immortals, yin and yang, so I respect heaven and earth, not gods and ghosts."
Ying Chengjiao's knowledge reserve expanded again, and he clasped his fists and apologized:
"I see. I'm really sorry. Cheng Jiao didn't mean to offend your teacher."
Zhao Gongming shook his head and wanted to say "It's okay", but when he opened his mouth, no words came out.
Because this matter is very harmful to him!
But in order to save the people of the world, Zhao Gongming suppressed the strangeness in his heart and said:
"Chang'an Jun has a kind heart. Even if he lacks knowledge and understanding of Heaven and is disrespectful, Heaven will not harm Chang'an Jun. Let's put this matter aside for now.
"Chang'an Jun, can you please go to His Majesty right away and ask him to change the royal decree? All along the way, my Yin-Yang magic is not fake."
Zhao Gongming demonstrated many magical Yin-Yang techniques to Ying Chengjiao along the way.
Just talking about observing the weather, many times the accuracy is very good, and one can tell what kind of animals there are in the forest through the jungle, such as tiger, leopard, deer, etc., and nine out of ten times he can tell right.
Ying Chengjiao asked Yue Nu, who was at the top of the martial arts pyramid in terms of stealth, perception and martial arts, whether she could do such a skill. Yue Nu said no.
“The Yin-Yang technique is indeed real.
"Cheng Jiao believed that this could be used to predict the weather. He also believed that it could predict future trends. But Cheng Jiao really didn't believe that a county like Pei could overthrow the Qin Empire.
"Sir, you said that the Qin State gained the world by moving its capital and gaining nourishment from the energy of Xianyang. I cannot agree with this.
"The seven generations of our ancestors worked hard to govern the country, the soldiers fought bravely, and the ministers and scholars came up with brilliant ideas, which is why we have this vast land.
"But the master said that this was just the effect of the earth's veins, which made Cheng Jiao feel ridiculous. If you follow what the master said, then my brother doesn't need to go on tours to intimidate the villains. Wouldn't it be better to move the capital from Xianyang to Pei County?"
Zhao Gongming said in a deep voice:
"Pei County is not a place to live for a long time. It is too small. The earth's energy will dissipate after 20 years. It cannot be suppressed in one day."
"gentlemen."
Ying Chengjiao interrupted and said:
"Cheng Jiao was not discussing the feasibility of moving the capital with you, sir. He was telling you that your idea of the earth's energy might not be nonsense - many animals become restless before the earth dragon turns over.
"But if you say it can influence the world situation, Cheng Jiao doesn't believe it, just like the star Mars guarding the heart."
Ying Chengjiao raised his index finger and pointed above his head.
"You think this is a bad omen, but I don't think so. I think it is just an ordinary astronomical phenomenon. I have never worried about it. I also know a lot about astronomical phenomena. Would you like to listen to me, sir?"
With the idea that only by knowing Ying Chengjiao's thoughts could he find the right remedy to persuade him, Zhao Gongming stretched out his hand.
"Please speak, Lord Chang'an."
Ying Chengjiao stomped his feet.
"First of all , the earth beneath our feet and the planet Mars in the sky are both spherical in shape, and are collectively called planets. I call the earth beneath our feet the Earth.
"The earth is always rotating around its center, from west to east. This is called rotation. The sun and moon rise in the east and set in the west because of this.
“Every planet has gravity, which is the force of attraction. The reason why ripe apples fall to the ground instead of flying into the sky is the effect of gravity.
"Because the gravity of the sun is too strong, the Earth and Mars will revolve around the sun, which is called revolution.
"The Earth and Mars are different in size and at different distances from the Sun, so their orbital speeds are different. The Earth orbits the Sun faster than Mars.
"From our perspective, Mars is just running around in the sky, with no fixed position. It will always end up in one of the constellations, which is Mars guarding the heart."
Zhao Gongming's face was stiff, as if he was hearing something from heaven.
Heresy!
Full of lies!
He took a deep breath.
"Is Chang'an Jun teasing Gongming?"
Ying Chengjiao was silent for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"It's just a joke, sir, why do you take it so seriously? I thought I could make you laugh.
"As for jokes, you usually say them a lot, sir.
“ The reason why the great Qin Empire fell was not because of the king’s injustice and the people’s resentment; it was not because the interests of the nobles were encroached upon and there were uprisings everywhere; it was not because of natural disasters such as drought and floods, and the resulting famine and human disasters.
"It's the celestial phenomenon of Mars guarding the heart, and the earth veins of Pei County. Sir, don't you think this is ridiculous?
"In fact, it is very simple for you to go against the trend. Just protect your brother. As long as your brother is alive, the world will not be in chaos. Twenty years later, a new generation will replace the old, and the world will regard itself as Qin people, and there will be no remnants of the six countries.
"The country is prosperous and the people are at peace. No one cares about the old country anymore, so how can there be rebellion and unrest?
"From the beginning, the heavens I wanted to go against and the trends that Mr. wanted to go against were not the same thing. I never felt that it was difficult for Mr. to go against the trends.
"Our Qin State has unified the world, divided the country into four regions, implemented good policies frequently, and our king is wise and virtuous. His prestige is second to none in history. All these are the foundation of a prosperous era. The great power is in Qin!
"I have never understood why you are so sure that the Qin Dynasty will fall, just because of the Mars in the heart? In my opinion, whoever wants to rebel is going against the trend, and you are going with the trend."
Yin-Yang magic is just a small trick, just treat it as a weather forecast.
Laozi and Qin Shihuang did not work in vain over the years.
If you become the Duke of Pei and take Pei County, you can destroy Qin? Funny!
