To say that this was done deliberately would not be wronging anyone. If you think about it carefully, it really is just that.
Xin Qiji thought about it seriously, then patted his head with a look of realization on his face.
"As far as we know, the earliest time someone heard this rumor was the day the chairman fell ill. On that day, from the time the news spread that the chairman fell ill to the news that the chairman woke up that night, it only took a total of six or seven hours.
Moreover, the cause of the disease is clear, and there are no large-scale royal doctors dispatched in the palace. It is still stable. Under such circumstances, in such a short period of time, a person who is sincerely worried about the chairman's health will skip worrying about when the chairman will wake up and think of it. Is there a question of succession to the chairman? "
"Your idea... is quite interesting."
Tian Guizi thought about it carefully and felt that what Xin Qiji said made sense.
From the time the news of Su Yonglin's high fever and unconsciousness to the news of his awakening came out, the whole process took less than seven hours. A minor illness and seven hours can make people jump from when Su Yonglin will wake up to whether Su Yonglin should Have you established an heir?
If no one is provoking it, deliberately leading the topic, or even selling anxiety, then this cannot be justified.
Tian Guizi and Xin Qiji gradually reached a consensus on this issue.
Later, Kong Maojie and several others also came to Tian Guizi's office from different places. Among the seven people, only Chen Dao, the chief minister of the cabinet, had heard about the matter before.
But at the time, he thought the matter was ridiculous, so he scolded his subordinates not to talk nonsense and then ignored it.
Who would have known that this matter would actually spread throughout the imperial court, sweeping everyone at an unexpected speed, and successfully becoming a hot topic and attracting attention. This is really not easy.
All seven people felt that the problem was not simple. They felt that there was a high probability that someone was deliberately manipulating the matter. They also believed that the person who did this had bad intentions and was very problematic. Moreover, this person should have a high status or be a gang member. .
They discussed whether to inform Su Yonglin about this matter. Five people were in favor and two were opposed. Then they decided that Tian Qizi would come forward and tell Su Yonglin about the matter in a more tactful way.
But where does Tian Guizi know anything about euphemism?
He has been hard for decades and has never softened.
So he went to see Su Yonglin after dinner, and saw Su Yonglin who had just had a nutritious dinner and was taking a walk to eat.
After explaining the purpose of his visit, Su Yonglin raised his eyebrows, then returned to normal, and invited Tian Guizi to take a walk with him.
"So you think this was done deliberately?"
"Yes, someone definitely did it deliberately."
Tian Guizi said: "In seven hours, a person who sincerely cares about you will never let someone think about the heir. This is definitely the behavior of people with bad intentions. They want to take advantage of this opportunity to fish in troubled waters!"
"You sincerely think about me?"
Su Yonglin thought for a while, smiled, and said: "I think the first thing people think of when encountering something is their own comfort and interests, and then they think about other things. I don't think this kind of thing is ridiculous. "
"Precisely because of this, if someone really has bad intentions, it will be easier to hide their existence."
Tian Guizi said angrily: "It is so abominable to discuss the issue of heirs when you are sick. I thought we must conduct a thorough investigation to find out who did such a thing."
"No matter who did this, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Gezi, do you think it is wrong for everyone to care about my heir?"
Su Yonglin looked at Tian Guizi with a smile.
Tian Guizi was stunned.
"Of course it's wrong."
"Not necessarily."
Su Yonglin sighed, shook his head and said: "No matter who brought it up, but it attracted so many people's attention and finally reached your ears, it means that this matter is really of concern to everyone. If it is wrong, Is everyone wrong?"
"But, this..."
"I should have thought of it earlier. It was just because I was too young, everyone was too busy, and Ming Dynasty was developing so fast, so everyone couldn't help but forget about it."
Su Yonglin shook his head and said with a smile: "But this does not mean that everyone will not care about this matter. With my status in the Ming Dynasty, as long as this matter is not settled, it will always be the thing that everyone is most concerned about. "
Tian Qizi hesitated for a while.
"Then...what are you going to do?"
"I'm not going to do it."
Su Yonglin smiled and said: "Quizi, I agree with your idea. This matter was deliberately done by someone and definitely not mentioned accidentally. Their purpose of doing this is nothing more than to use the trend of public opinion to force me to stand up." Zeying is the crown prince to appease people’s hearts.”
"Let Zeying be the crown prince?"
Tian Guizi was stunned and said in shock: "You have made it clear that you will not be the emperor forever, nor will you let Zeying be the prince. If they do this, wouldn't they..."
"Yes, they just want to force me to continue playing this emperor's game, let this game settle down, and return to the path they want, so that they can continue to dream of their own noble dreams."
Su Yonglin suppressed his smile and said with a solemn face: "I have always been the emperor and gave them thoughts they shouldn't have. They want to take advantage of the fact that the dust has not yet settled to push all this to the path they want. , let Ming Dynasty deteriorate.
They think that if they do this, they will be able to divide the Ming Dynasty after I die, but they also don’t think about it. If I really want to be the emperor, and I really want to make Zeying the prince, the first batch of people will be beheaded. That's them.
Zeying has no military merit, no prestige, and no prerequisites for commanding the army. These are all problems I have to solve. Will I let my heir do nothing in the face of a group of veteran hungry wolves? People are bound to die, and many people will die! What a bunch of idiots! "
Tian Guizi thought of the bloody palace struggles in the history books he had read that could not be erased no matter how sophisticated the writing style was, and he couldn't help but shake his head.
"Few of the founding kings of the past dynasties did not kill their meritorious ministers. Don't they understand why?"
Su Yonglin shook his head and sighed: "They still read too little, they should read more, so they know that if I really become the real emperor, they will not be far away from killing everyone.
If a monarch like me, who is about to establish a country, wants to kill someone, do I need a reason? Only a truly strong emperor can allow the existence of ministers of tigers and wolves. A weak emperor will never allow the existence of ministers of tigers and wolves! "
Tian Guizi thought about it for a moment and understood everything.
"So who do you think is behind all this? What do you need the Metropolitan Procuratorate to do? I can start preparations immediately."
"No action is needed for now."
Su Yonglin waved his hand and said: "I don't know exactly who is doing such a thing. I don't know whether it is an individual act or a gang act, but I think the person who did it should be the same as the previous group of people who were Qiao Feng." There is also a high degree of overlap between the people Lu Dian begged for mercy from."
Tian Guizi nodded to express his understanding.
"Then start with them?"
"No, I want to give them another chance."
Su Yonglin shook his head and said: "Quizi, after you go back, help me deliver a message, saying that my health has gradually improved, but I still need to rest for a while, and when I am recuperating, I like reading books the most, especially history books.
When you came to see me, you found me reading a book. I told you that what I like to read most now is "Historical Records: The Benji of Gaozu" and "Sui Shu: Chronicles of Gaozu", and I also discussed with you the meaning of these two articles. What’s wonderful. "
