Although Su Yonglin had finished speaking, Zhang Yuejing could not calm down for a long time until he returned to his small courtyard and sat down.
Su Yonglin has no selfish motives, this is something he can confirm at present.
Everything Su Yonglin did, including what he is doing now, is to realize his own highest human ideal put forward by an ancient pre-Qin man - the world is for the common good.
Everything he thinks about has nothing to do with his personal and family interests. All he thinks about is the country and the people.
And this point of view he put forward also gave Zhang Yuejing a great impact.
This made Zhang Yuejing start thinking.
Although he is not directly responsible for civil affairs, the things he has to do in Guangxi are more or less inseparable from civil affairs and have to be involved, such as helping people reclaim wasteland.
The current situation in the Ming Dynasty is indeed represented by the government and the Renaissance Association, which implement an all-encompassing type of governance over the people.
All policies were proposed by Su Yonglin and other leading figures in the past few years and have been tested in other regions with good results.
There is no need for public approval or choice, as long as you follow orders and do things.
The policies are all good policies, and they are indeed good for them. The results are also very significant. They have greatly improved people's living standards and made more and more people turn to the Ming Dynasty.
But as Su Yonglin said, does this have no side effects?
Just as the feudal patriarch can indeed play a role in protecting the clan members from being bullied by outsiders, at the same time, it also has great side effects.
"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"
When the Ming Dynasty eliminated the powerful landlords a few years ago, what they focused on criticizing was the persecution of feudal clan members by the feudal patriarchal ideology based on Confucianism's three cardinal principles and five constant principles. What Su Yonglin is doing now is precisely to break the feudal patriarchal ideology. The style.
And what Su Haisheng and his like are doing is to become the feudal patriarch?
He began to feel that the mentality of Su Haisheng and some central representatives may be as Su Yonglin said. Their revolutionary will has not changed, but there are problems with their attitudes towards doing things and how they treat the people.
They see themselves as parents.
They believe that everything they do is for the good of the people, and everything they do is to protect them from harm, so as long as the people are obedient and follow the instructions, it will be fine.
They are like parents who dote on their children but have a strong desire to control their children's every move, so that they will get angry if their children make even the slightest move that does not conform to their ideas.
We need to punish, we need to make children feel pain, and we need to engage in stick education, so that they can know what is "right" and what is "wrong", and let them move forward according to the track they have set, no matter what the final outcome of this track is. Towards success or destruction.
In their eyes, there is only winning and nothing else.
However this is not right.
Our revolution is not to make ourselves the feudal patriarchs, nor to make the people "protected" by the feudal patriarchs.
It's for liberation.
All-round liberation.
It is to enable the people to successfully awaken and become masters of the country in the true sense and be able to take responsibility for their own future. A truly responsible government is to let the people learn to be responsible for themselves, and ultimately make the people responsible for themselves.
If you regard yourself as a feudal patriarch and use this consciousness to manage the people, what is the purpose of the revolution?
When things got to this point, Zhang Yuejing felt that there was nothing left to say.
He has completely stood by Su Yonglin's side. He even feels that if he cannot stand by Su Yonglin's side, it will be a huge crime and an unforgivable mistake. It is very serious and needs to be dealt with and reviewed.
He took a deep breath and made up his mind.
He did not choose to continue sitting, but stood up and walked to the small courtyard where Su Haisheng was, wanting to tell Su Haisheng what Su Yonglin said to him today.
He felt that Su Haisheng must know all this.
It was late at night, and in the palace courtyard where Su Yonglin and his family lived temporarily, Su Yonglin was sitting alone in a small flower pavilion drinking.
At some point, Su Yin's ghostly figure suddenly appeared behind Su Yonglin, kneeling on one knee and saluting him.
"Chairman, your prediction is correct. Zhang Yuejing did go to Su Haisheng's place."
"How was their conversation?"
"Zhang Yuejing was very emotional and reprimanded Su Haisheng. He also completely conveyed everything you said to Zhang Yuejing. Su Haisheng seemed to be ashamed, and his words were quite weak and concessionary. He was not as arrogant and domineering as before."
After Su Yin finished speaking, Su Yonglin nodded slowly.
"Do you think Su Haisheng is afraid of Zhang Yuejing?"
"With such a handle in his hand, no matter how good the relationship is, he will still be wary. Seeing that Zhang Yuejing is determined and not easily swayed by external things, Su Haisheng is indeed in awe of Zhang Yuejing."
"No, Su Haisheng is not afraid of anything. The only thing he is afraid of is me. Zhang Yuejing is conveying my words, so he is afraid. Su Haisheng will never be afraid of Zhang Yuejing alone."
Su Yonglin looked calm, holding a small wine glass in his hand, looking at the bright moon in the sky, sighing slightly: "These generals who have been famous for a long time and have commanded tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops are all people with outstanding achievements.
Outstanding meritorious service will almost certainly bring about the expansion of power and personal expansion. Unless the personal cultivation is really very good, this expansion will be suppressed, but there are too few such people.
If I hadn't been pressing down on them, God knows how much they could have swelled. Even so, Su Haisheng still swelled a bit and seemed to be out of control. If he didn't perform like he did tonight, I should consider replacing him with his position. Moved it around. "
Su Yin was a little worried.
"Chairman, Su Haisheng has made outstanding achievements and has done nothing wrong. His sudden action may cause unease in others."
Su Yonglin nodded.
"So I said, he is only afraid of me, because he knows that I am the only one who can ignore his achievements and simply take him down completely. It is the same for everyone. I am a special existence, so they will Under such circumstances, the relative rules should still be maintained.”
"Understood."
"But only I can do this."
Su Yonglin took a deep breath and drank the wine in one gulp.
"I have suppressed this wave of counterattacks from the central area. The next wave of counterattacks is still brewing. However, they do not have the decisive power and will not succeed in the end. Therefore, the military cannot be chaotic and there cannot be any fluctuations. have.
The military must achieve transition completely and safely. Any fluctuation will cause a violent chain reaction. Once this chain reaction occurs, it can only be solved by military means, and there will be bloodshed. This is what I don't want to see. . "
"According to our observations, we still believe that Su Haisheng's reactions are mostly personal emotions."
Su Yin whispered: "What he did was rational and calm. What he said cannot be evidence that he does have a problem. As you said, his behavior is not against you." policy, but the paternalistic mentality is at work."
"That's what worries me."
Su Yonglin looked back at Su Yin: "This is a sign that he is changing. Many people need an opportunity to change. This opportunity is the loss of personal interests. Some people seem to be revolutionaries just because they have no self-interest." damaged.
Once their own interests are damaged, they will jump up like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, baring their teeth and cracking their mouths, and are very violent. This is just the first time, it can even be said to be a rehearsal. I can't help but think that Su Haisheng can react like this. Not alert. "
