It can be considered that Su Yonglin had foresight.
After the democratic reform, he reduced his workload through the nine-member decision-making group and gained a lot of time. This precious time can be used to do these things.
After Zhao Yucheng left, Su Yonglin called Su Yin over, compared what he knew with what he knew, and came to a very accurate conclusion.
Among the high-level ruling groups of the Ming Dynasty, there have been a group of people who do not want their power to be affected and restricted.
The establishment of the people's congress system and Su Yonglin's promotion of the significance of law in Ming society are destined to limit the power and status of today's officials.
Once this thing comes true, they will lose their existing space to act expediently and have to act within the legal framework, and the criteria for being taken down will become clearer than ever before. Once they violate the law, they will be taken down easily. .
Officials will naturally feel worried and dissatisfied, whether they are officials who abide by the law or officials who do not like the law to begin with.
Moreover, the previous Ming Dynasty leadership's style of doing things was actually elite decision-making, which had nothing to do with the people. At most, it was about making adjustments after the policy was implemented to see how effective it was.
Nowadays, substantial changes have taken place, and the existence of the People's Congress has been introduced, which will actually bring about huge changes in the operation of power.
The impact of this change will cause inconvenience to officials for a long time until they get used to it.
Among this group of people, there are moderates and radicals.
Su Haisheng was considered a moderate among them. Although he was also dissatisfied with the People's Congress, he was dissatisfied with some of the content settings of the conference itself, which had not extended to the entire system.
In the final analysis, their minds have not yet turned around, and it is not that they are unwilling to turn around.
Some people are dissatisfied with the entire system and feel that this system is completely unnecessary.
Some people even privately suggested that "Su Yonglin is not on their side but on the side of the People's Congress", which completely deviated from the general policy and showed a dangerous ideological tendency.
So Su Yin's face became very ugly.
"These bastards are so brave!"
"It's true that he has eaten the courage of a bear's heart and a leopard's courage, but from a human perspective, this is also human nature."
Su Yonglin shook his head: "The jade is my diamond, but there are not that many jade in the world, and there are not many real diamonds. Most of them are sand."
"Then what are you going to do?"
"As I said before, I don't plan to do anything."
Su Yonglin sighed and said slowly: "They have neither violated the rules of the association nor the national law. How can I use this as an excuse to take them down even if they complain a little? They are more provocative of the people than of Fangchuan. The road follows the eye, which is never a good thing.
If I really kill them all for this, the atmosphere in Zhongdu will be a bit scary. When the time comes, everyone wants to speak, but no one dares to speak. After that, it will really not end well. At this step, I, a guy who has been revolutionizing my whole life, don’t want my reputation to be ruined? "
When Su Yin heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Before, I really thought you were going to go to war over this."
"They said some unpleasant things and made some complaints. Although I am dissatisfied, I will not take them down just for this."
Su Yonglin sighed and said slowly: "I did this just to nip it in the bud. Now that I know the tendency, if something really happens, I can take action early to control the situation to the minimum. I don't want to hurt my relatives." It’s only the haters’ pleasure, I hope they won’t force me.”
Su Yin was silent for a while and then said, "You always have to do something, right?"
"Add more manpower, carry out covert surveillance, put the people on this list into a key monitoring list, and update the latest trends every month."
Su Yonglin said solemnly: "We must not take certain changes within us lightly. I am not willing to take action against them, but if they violate the central government's new reform policy or even secretly obstruct it, I will not tolerate them.
The public representatives do not understand the essentials of governing the country now, but that does not mean that they will never understand. Are we all Huo Qubing, born to march and fight? Isn’t it still due to the summary of studies over the years? The ancients knew that it was a sin to punish people without teaching them, let alone now? "
"clear."
Su Yin nodded in agreement and then left.
After walking a few steps, Su Yonglin called out to Su Yin.
"Ayin, if a big tree wants to grow with luxuriant branches and leaves, it cannot succeed without a root system that is deeply rooted in the ground and grows vigorously. But unlike the branches and leaves that are bathed in the sun, the root system cannot see the sun. of.
Although the root system is important, it has been buried in the soil for many years, in the dark, without access to ordinary fresh air. This is no different from what you do, always doing some dirty and tiring work in the dark. Although it is extremely important, it is not human. known.
I'm very sorry for this, but I also hope you can understand that although this country is brilliant and glorious, there are always some shameful things that need to be done secretly, and someone needs to protect this country in the dark. This responsibility, I can only here you are. "
Su Yin turned around, looked at Su Yonglin, and smiled slightly.
"Isn't this the responsibility you gave me from the beginning? I have never doubted that what I do cannot protect this country. Others are fighting bloody battles on the battlefield, and I also have my own battlefield. I feel very fulfilled."
"That's good."
Su Yonglin smiled and nodded, and said warmly: "I believe in your tenacity and faith, but you will also have times when you are tired. When fatigue accumulates, don't hold on, bask in the sun, or come to talk to me. Don't let yourself My heart is also shrouded and cannot see the sun."
Su Yin's heart trembled slightly, and he nodded slowly to show that he understood.
After Su Yin left, Su Yonglin turned and returned to the bedroom.
Zhao Xixin had already put her two sons to sleep and was reading a book at the desk in her pajamas. When she saw Su Yonglin come in, she put down the book and stepped forward to take off his coat and hang it up.
"I heard from Xiao Cui that today's banquet was a success and everyone was very happy. This People's Congress can be considered an official success, right?"
"Well, of course, we have put so much effort into it, so of course we have to succeed."
Su Yonglin walked to the table and drank a glass of water, sighing: "Xixin, you said, if one day, a person you were very familiar with stood in front of you, but you could no longer recognize his appearance, what would you do? Do you feel sad?"
Zhao Xixin was arranging Su Yonglin's clothes when she suddenly heard him say this. She was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to realize something.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Su Yonglin smiled and shook his head.
"No, nothing happened. I just wanted to ask you."
"That's not a good question."
Zhao Xixin looked at Su Yonglin's face and didn't see anything bad, so she shook her head and said slowly: "A very familiar person, either a relative or a very close friend, but standing in front of him can no longer recognize his appearance. , wouldn’t that mean turning against each other and becoming enemies?”
"Turn against each other and become enemies..."
Su Yonglin sighed and said slowly: "If it can be summed up by saying "turning enemies against each other", it is really a simple matter. Making enemies is nothing more than those things. There will be a solution in the end, but if it is because of the conflict of ideas, there is really no solution. .”
"There must be something wrong with you."
Zhao Xixin sat next to Su Yonglin and stared at him: "Tell me, what is going on?"
Su Yonglin smiled and reached out to touch Zhao Xixin's long, smooth hair: "It's really not a big deal, at least not yet. Believe me, everything is under my control. Nothing big will happen, that's for sure."
"The more you say this, the more worried I become."
Zhao Xixin shook her head helplessly and said: "Yuting, you always keep many problems in your heart. If you keep too many things in your heart, you will be very tired. I don't want you to be so tired."
"I am the leader of a country."
Su Yonglin smiled and said: "Although I am no longer the emperor, I am still the leader of the country. If I am not tired at all, won't there be problems in the country? Don't worry, I will control the scale, and you can be yourself That’s the biggest help to me, okay?”
Looking at Su Yonglin's gentle face, Zhao Xixin could only sigh slightly, nodded, and said nothing more.
