Su Yonglin's words made Kong Maojie unable to react for a while. He looked at Su Yonglin with shock on his face.
"Your Majesty, this..."
"Mao Jie, the most fundamental reason for this incident lies with me. It is because of me that this incident happened."
"What... do you mean?"
Su Yonglin sighed.
"Don't you understand? Mao Jie, in order to quickly stabilize the world, establish a stable regime, and consolidate the achievements we have made, I have accepted many old ministers into our new court. I never expected to make them become We are our own people, I just hope they can be quiet for a while before I free up my hands to deal with them.
But now I feel that I am too idealistic, and I think that they are too settled. I actually think that as long as I give them things to do and give them power, they can do things. Even if they fight, don't ruin my things. That's it.
But they can't even do this. They are not even willing to meet my demands. They try their best to make things happen for me and hold me back. In the face of the real big thing I want to do, they actually do it. Something like this happens! "
Su Yonglin's expression was calm, but Kong Maojie, who was familiar with him, knew that Su Yonglin had reached a certain level of anger.
“I once imagined that we could use their knowledge to let them temporarily replace us in governing the country for a period of time, because the talents we have cultivated are too few and not enough, and the knowledge does not seem to be enough to bear the burden of a country.
I felt like we were too weak to govern a huge country, and in every sense we were probably not ready to completely take over the country. That's what I thought, and that seemed to be the case at the time.
So my idea is that when we have cultivated enough talents, when our own talents have reached a high level of education, when the Yellow River is repaired, when there are no enemies in the world, when we are invincible in the world, then , I can deal with these superior people.
But now I have figured it out, that day will never come. I wait and wait. Maybe I won’t be able to wait for that day until the end of my life. And if I don’t do some things, no one will ever do them. .
And if I don't take action, if I don't do it, I'm afraid it will be too late. Their power does not lie in the swords, guns, swords and halberds, but in the corrosion of people's hearts. It has only been three years, but Xu Li has already been born, and they don't know how much is hidden. Xu Li, if the time were longer, would it still be possible? I can't wait any longer. "
Kong Maojie was stunned for a while, and suddenly he became excited.
"Have you really figured it out?"
Su Yonglin nodded repeatedly.
"Ah, I figured it out, I totally figured it out. I always think of our own people as too weak. I feel that they are incapable of defeating superior people. I feel that they are incapable of managing themselves and a huge country. But Now think about it, why don't I believe them?
They are also working hard to study, study, work hard, and work hard for the people. Everyone is working hard, but I still wishfully thought that they cannot completely replace these superior people. I was wrong, and I was so wrong. .
They don’t know how, I know how, you know how, and everyone knows how. Those who know how can teach those who don’t know how. Write books to teach them, hold training classes to teach them, and spend your whole life teaching them so that they can learn. Yet? Why should I worry so much?
Worry comes and goes, and I almost worry that I have become a corrupt person, worry has become a new superior person, I have not done what I should do, and I have done everything I should not do. If I continue to worry, I am afraid that one day I will not be able to do it. If I don’t want to be the emperor, they will force me to continue to be the emperor! "
"This...this is great!"
Kong Maojie looked at the excited Su Yonglin and could not contain his excitement.
"It's great that you can think like this! In the past few years, really, when I look at you, I feel that you are always suppressing yourself, and you always seem to want to do something but can't let go. .”
"Did I make you feel this way?"
Su Yonglin looked at Kong Maojie with a smile.
Kong Maojie nodded.
"I remember when I was still in Shengjie Army, when I looked at you, I always felt that you were high-spirited. You would do whatever you said. If you had an idea, you would do it immediately. You would never hide yourself. You were full of energy, but you did it. After becoming the emperor, such feelings will become rare.”
"Well, as an emperor, I have more things to consider. I always want to maintain a balance and carefully maintain this hard-won situation. But in the end, I feel that there is no need to maintain this situation."
Su Yonglin stepped forward and patted Kong Maojie on the shoulder: "Maojie, it's not too late for me to make this decision, right? Even though Jiang Yu doesn't look right now that he has Xu Li, at least...you still have Same as before.”
"That's just right, just right."
Kong Maojie grinned: "If it were so early, we really wouldn't be able to establish the Ming Dynasty so quickly. We suffered a lot relying on those old officials, but we also have enough resources to cultivate more revival members. Now , we have a family foundation."
"That's good. You can't always look forward and backward when doing things. There will never be a time when you are fully prepared to do something. If you want to succeed, you have to take risks."
Su Yonglin nodded: "Let's start from this time. Let's deal with the most stubborn Shandong scholars first. With my emperor's authority, it will be easy for them. The others should be very happy, but when the knife falls on their heads By the time I get there, it’s too late.”
"Want to kill?"
"Of course I'll kill him!"
Su Yonglin's words were murderous: "If you don't kill, how can you get them to hand over everything they have? Those who deserve to be killed must be killed, they must be killed! These high-ranking people are used to showing off their power, who doesn't have lives on their hands? Who doesn't have numerous sins?
Moreover, you have forgotten that what we are about to do is an extremely violent action. Without violence, it is not enough to change the world and usher in a new life! The last time I let them go, I gave them a new chance, but they didn't seize it. In this case, don't blame me for being cruel. "
What happened in the Yellow River Project completely ignited the anger in Su Yonglin's heart.
This also made Su Yonglin realize that there was no point of compromise between his group of people.
Originally, Su Yonglin only planned to launch a traditional rectification movement, but now he found that rectification alone was no longer enough.
Whenever Su Yonglin compromises even a little bit, it is a betrayal of himself and all the beliefs he upholds.
So far, these people have voluntarily given up the opportunity to enter the new era. Their bodies have chosen to stay in the old era, so just stay in the old era.
There will be no new era in the future without them.
