Su Yonglin's status is really important to them and this country.
To put it bluntly, it felt like if he sneezed, the entire Ming Dynasty would tremble.
His significance and existence are irreplaceable and unparalleled in importance to the Ming Dynasty. Everything in the Ming Dynasty operates with him as the core.
Therefore, when he was normal, the Ming Dynasty was extremely powerful and invincible in the world.
But what if he...is no longer here?
This time, the emergency establishment of a seven-member decision-making group caused by Su Yonglin's illness seemed to be a preview for this emergency, telling everyone that even if Su Yonglin could not handle government affairs for the time being, there would still be a seven-member decision-making group that could take over.
But in the final analysis, this is a temporary solution, not permanent. The seven-member decision-making group has not been recognized by Su Yonglin. The basis of their governance is that Su Yonglin is still alive, but cannot handle government affairs temporarily.
What if, that is, if, Su Yonglin drives Hexi one day?
Can the seven-member decision-making group replace Su Yonglin's existence?
It is estimated that no one will recognize this possibility. No one thinks that the seven-member decision-making group can replace Su Yonglin's existence and become the only one in everyone's heart.
Everyone was used to Su Yonglin's youth and strength, and believed that he could continue to struggle for another forty or fifty years. They even thought that he was a god, and that the Ming Dynasty could always thrive and be extremely powerful under his rule.
But his sudden illness gave everyone a head-on blow, making everyone realize that Su Yonglin was really, as he said, a mortal with a mortal body. He had to eat, sleep, get sick and die, and he would not always be able to rule the Ming Dynasty. .
Su Yonglin is only thirty-three years old. In any era, this age cannot be considered old, but should be considered young and powerful.
But it is undeniable that the fall due to illness brought a big shock to the entire court and made everyone realize the importance of Su Yonglin to this country.
Su Yonglin is too important.
This kind of thinking is normal, and it is normal to feel the importance of Su Yonglin after such a shock.
Therefore, most people are simply concerned about Su Yonglin's health.
However, there were a few caring people who were temporarily confused when they learned that Su Yonglin was ill. They quickly came to their senses and gradually had some special thoughts in their hearts.
They felt that Su Yonglin needed an heir.
Their thoughts jumped so fast that they soon felt that Su Yonglin needed to explain his successor matters to the outside world, otherwise it would not be enough to make the entire court feel at ease.
Because Su Yonglin is too important, no one can replace his status and his position in the hearts of the people of the Ming Dynasty. It is precisely because of this that everyone needs an heir who can make everyone feel at ease.
Even if the heir is young and not very famous, as long as he has Su Yonglin's approval or has Su Yonglin's bloodline, that would be the best.
This is how they think about it.
I didn't even think that just a fever seemed to be unable to make Su Yonglin collapse like this and lose his leadership of the Ming Dynasty.
Their hearts began to beat, and something began to stir.
Su Yonglin woke up that night after sleeping for a day due to a high fever. Zhao Xirui, who had been staying by his side, discovered Su Yonglin's recovery immediately and was overjoyed.
"Yuting, are you awake?"
"How long have I... been asleep?"
"It's been a day and a night."
Zhao Xirui held Su Yonglin's hand tightly and said with a happy face: "Last night you came back drunk. This morning you had a high fever and fell asleep. I called the imperial doctor to help you diagnose and treat you, and the imperial doctor treated you. After a while...you finally woke up."
"I have a high fever?"
Su Yonglin was confused for a moment, and his somewhat groggy brain gradually became clearer.
His slightly weak body gave him enough feedback to make him realize the fact that he was sick.
"One day and one night...the government..."
"You talk about government affairs as soon as you wake up? Don't you know how to take care of your body?"
Zhao Xirui shook his head helplessly and told Su Yonglin what happened today, including the establishment of the seven-person decision-making group.
After hearing this, Su Yonglin nodded slightly.
"They are doing the right thing. Setting up a decision-making group to handle things at this time can stabilize people's hearts and convince the public. It will not cause any trouble in the court. When I wake up, everything will be over."
After a pause, Su Yonglin asked again: "Didn't my father-in-law join in?"
Zhao Xirui brought a bowl of brown sugar ginger tea and stirred it while blowing on it.
"Of course Daddy knows that he has a special status. If he joins this decision-making group at this time, isn't it necessary to confirm the facts? Daddy came to see you in the morning, and stayed for a while after having dinner in the afternoon. After dinner, the doctor came to see you He said you were fine, and then he went back to rest."
Su Yonglin smiled bitterly when he heard this.
"It seems like this is all my problem..."
"Don't think about this anymore. There are seven of them handling the government affairs now. You might as well take this opportunity to take a good rest."
Zhao Xirui put a spoonful of ginger soup to Su Yonglin's mouth: "You have been busy with the war, the Western Regions, and the steam engine during this period. You are running around every day. You must be tired and don't take a good rest. If you leave the root of the disease behind, you’ll be in trouble.”
Su Yonglin took a sip of ginger soup and smacked his lips. It felt sweet and slightly spicy.
"I've always been in good health. Why is it like this this time..."
"Do you still think you are twenty-three years old? Su Yonglin, nicknamed Yuting, is thirty-three years old. Yuting, you are thirty-three years old, you are no longer a twenty-three-year-old young man."
Zhao Xirui reached out helplessly and poked Su Yonglin's cheek, scolding: "If you don't pay attention to your health like this, and still deal with state affairs with the energy of a twenty-three-year-old, be careful of getting more seriously ill in the future."
Su Yonglin smiled bitterly.
"It must be that I have been too busy recently and haven't exercised. When I get better this time and things are almost settled, I have to strengthen my exercise. The more I exercise, the better my body will be. I must not slack off."
"The imperial doctor told you to take care of your body first, eat and drink as you should, lay a good foundation before talking about other things, and put exercise and other things later."
Zhao Xirui put another mouthful of ginger soup to Su Yonglin's mouth and asked him to drink it: "The government affairs will never be finished. If you think about exercising after finishing the government affairs, don't even think about it in this life."
"Hehe, this is not what I want. Who makes it impossible for him to handle this matter?"
Su Yonglin sighed: "Sometimes I also wonder whether I hold power too tightly. I have to be involved in everything and handle everything personally. There are more and more people in the cabinet and I have to deal with it." There are also more and more government affairs..."
"I definitely feel that way."
Zhao Xirui said slowly: "Actually, I think there are some things that you don't need to handle personally. There are so many departments and people in the court, and they are not just decorations. I think you regard them as people who handle things rather than people who make decisions. , that’s why you are so tired.”
"Am I doing this?"
Su Yonglin was a little surprised: "I handle many things in meetings. Everyone knows that we make decisions together."
"Aren't you the one who makes the final decision?"
Zhao Xirui glared at Su Yonglin: "You can make the decision on major military and state affairs, but you also have to make the decision on some trivial matters. I'm really worried that you think of yourself as Zhuge Wuhou. Zhuge Wuhou died of illness in his fifties. You also want to Learn from him?"
